[12:00] <judah> nanotube: there's no reason to have a compiler there generally.
[12:00] <cajun> what is the command to see how much free hard disk space i have?
[12:00] <tylerofl> it seems to happen at random
[12:00] <MetaMorfoziS> and how?
[12:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: again, what if apache needs it?
[12:00] <Seveas> cajun, df -h
[12:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> apache runs as its own user
[12:00] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: why would apache needs it ?
[12:00] <nanotube> judah, well, it could be excluded from a server install. :)
[12:00] <larsson_> No one knows if dirmngr is important to my system? Ubuntu hangs on bootup. CAn dirmngr be disabled?
[12:00] <ompaul> mirak, if you want it put into a spec wiki.ubuntu.com or request in launchpad.net  not for here
[12:00] <bulltitan> can anyone tell me something about my problem?
[12:00] <judah> nanotube: bah!
[12:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> oy...
[12:00] <mirak> ompaul: I was thinking of doing that
[12:00] <nanotube> judah, but anyway, see, my general thinking is that ubuntuforums should act as kind of a sounding board for what needs to be worked on
[12:00] <cajun> thx
[12:01] <Mastus> fissy: But do you have the tv-out tab in it? It was in earlier (Breezy) version of the drivers... Can't get the friggin' thing to work
[12:01] <judah> nanotube: you need gcc to have a desktop installation on a business desktop somewhere where there are 2000 clients installed.
[12:01] <tylerofl> it might have something to do with sound, because it only happens after a time with rhythmbox open. but i always have music playing, so it's difficult to tell
[12:01] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: Think about it this way. What benefits would it have over the current system?
[12:01] <judah> nanotube: absolutely.
[12:01] <Kyral_FreeBSD> the current system has worked for 20+ years
[12:01] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD ompaul : I think linux can allow itslef great things as long as it's done right
[12:01] <Seveas> judah, that is one of the places where gcc is least needed...
[12:01] <judah> nanotube: what's stopping you from posting a thread?
[12:01] <nanotube> judah, so eg, if you see a lot of people ask "what's up with no root permissions" and everyone keeps telling them "you need to use sudo", you have to start thinking - can we do anything to give a warning to people every time they open a terminal, so that they don't have to ask?
[12:01] <darkyoshi> How can I make the applications button nicer?
[12:01] <fissy> Mastus: i have a tab called 'Desktop Setup'
[12:01] <judah> Seveas: that's what i'm saying!!!!!
 nanotube: you need gcc to have a desktop installation on a business desktop somewhere where there are 2000 clients installed.
[12:02] <tylerofl> darkyoshi: that's a metter of opinion
[12:02] <nanotube> judah, and that's exactly what i saw when i used the dapper live cd - you open a terminal, and at the top there is a message saying "use sudo for root privs"
 judah, that is one of the places where gcc is least needed...
[12:02] <chavo> nanotube, actually the terminal does warn, but only on first login
[12:02] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: it would reduce the risks of a user compromising the system. I mean actually, a user is root or not.
[12:02] <ompaul> mirak, if you want it you look for it the way I am suggesting it is the way to intereact dropping it into a support channel kinda is like drive by bug reporting not really useful
[12:02] <judah> nanotube: if you click on any administrative application in gnome in ubuntu you are prompted for your password. that's pretty self evident.
[12:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: the programs aren't the problem
[12:02] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: if he wants to do things like install he directly needs to be root.
[12:02] <Mastus> fissy: But that doesn't control the tv-out on/off. Is the aticonfig --enable-monitor command supposed to do that?
[12:02] <darkyoshi> What I mean is changing it from the Ubuntu logo and "Applications" to an XP-like start button, as seen in Linux Magazine
[12:02] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: no he doesn't
[12:02] <judah> it's all a learning curve.
[12:02] <Seveas> darkyoshi, *shiver*
[12:03] <darkyoshi> :(
[12:03] <tylerofl> *agrees*
[12:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: pass ./configure --prefix=$HOME
[12:03] <darkyoshi> Not exactly
[12:03] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: while I don't think you need as high privileges to install some basic stuffs
[12:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> done
[12:03] <darkyoshi> not saying start
[12:03] <ompaul> !root
[12:03] <darkyoshi> or being green
[12:03] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[12:03] <tylerofl> i highly doubt it
[12:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> the low level things that everyone uses?
[12:03] <ompaul> mirak, ^^ please read that page reffed by ubotu
[12:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> yah smart
[12:03] <darkyoshi> But how can I make a customized applicatinos button?
[12:03] <nanotube> judah, so when you try to run make, and it says "command not found" why doesn't it give a message "you seem to be attempting to build from source, you need package build-essential for that". that way, all the questions are answered.
[12:03] <Keps> darkyoshi: right click on panel > add to panel > main menu
[12:03] <mirak> ompaul: sudo -s gives you as much privileges
[12:03] <darius_> nanotube: because if you're running make - you should know that much
[12:04] <Kyral_FreeBSD> read it and be aware of the implication of $PATH
[12:04] <judah> nanotube: go ahead and write the code to add that to /bin/sh
[12:04] <QPAD|war-away> server.cfg - Not writable by web server! - how do i make a file writeable by the the user www-data ?
[12:04] <[Jonne] > fissy: thanks for the link. I'll probably need to reboot, but i've got the feeling that this will fix it
[12:04] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD,  How many $PATHs must a man walk down... 
[12:04] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: yanno what I have an idea. If you feel so strongly about it, make your own distro
[12:04] <judah> nanotube: i don't think that's the job of a shell to thell you that sort of thing.
[12:04] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: I don't need that. and I don't understand why you can place yourself in the position of basic users that will NEVER EVER want to hear about compilation
[12:04] <nanotube> judah
[12:04] <QPAD|war-away> anyone ?
[12:04] <judah> nanotube
[12:04] <judah>  ;)
[12:04] <nanotube> judah, oh no, dont edit the shell by no means
[12:04] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:05] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: are you an ex debian user or something ?
[12:05] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: because I don't believe that is the path to a more secure cyberspace
[12:05] <QPAD|war-away> how do i make a file writeable by a user? anyone
[12:05] <larsson_> need a scandisk like appl
[12:05] <nanotube> judah, just edit the default .bashrc to include aliases for gcc and make, that are aliased to that warning message. simple as that :)
[12:05] <Seveas> larsson_, fsck
[12:05] <nanotube> judah, nobody wants to edit the shell! :P
[12:05] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: anyway who are you to say this idea is totaly dismissable ?
[12:05] <judah> nanotube: but what if make and gcc is installed?
[12:05] <fissy> Mastus: i'm not sure what you said will do the job, but if you type aticonfig on its own, it does give a huge output, some of which looks like it might say how to turn on the tv out
[12:05] <ompaul> mirak, using -s will get me giving out to you, try -i if you feel you must, however it is not how we interact the machine, and if you suggest it here expect to be shouted at - sudo is your friend
[12:05] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: I have already told you how to install something in your homedir without root
[12:05] <rmflagg> I have a laptop with an Intel PRO/Wirelessbg card in it, and I can no longer connect to WEP encrypted APs.  This use to work under Breezy.  Does anyone know what the problem could be?
[12:05] <judah> nanotube: you're alias would still interupt the command with the warning.
[12:05] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, mirak: could you stop pointless arguing, this channel is for support.
[12:05] <nanotube> judah, have the build-essential .deb automatically remove those aliases.
[12:05] <QPAD|war-away> how do i make a file writeable by a user? anyone
[12:05] <arnol1> sorry I didn't notice we couldn't do some past
[12:06] <Seveas> QPAD|war-away, man chmod, man chown
[12:06] <judah> nanotube: that sounds... ew... but write a patch and make it work.
[12:06] <mirak> Seveas: so where can I chat about that ?
[12:06] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:06] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Not hear, I am leaving for dinner
[12:06] <Kyral_FreeBSD> :P
[12:06] <ompaul> mirak, #ubuntu-offtopic is that channel
[12:06] <nanotube> judah, all it would take is a simple edit of a text file. (like passing that through a grep -v is all)
[12:06] <QPAD|war-away> Seveas, could you please give me the command, pretty please?
[12:06] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: you can't understand that's not for me but a general concept ?
[12:06] <avis> how do i change the refresh rate for xorg ?  in X its set to a value too high for my monitor which can be bad for the monitor.
[12:06] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i convert mpg to mp3 with mencoder?
[12:06] <Seveas> QPAD|war-away, to make a file world writable: chmod a+w /path/to/file
[12:06] <MetaMorfoziS> in google i nothing found
[12:06] <tylerofl> i always dislike coming in here, because there are way more people asking questions than giving answers. once i get more familar with this os i'll do my part
[12:06] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: no you can't. nevermind
[12:07] <QPAD|war-away> Seveas, and by a user? I need to make the file /home/cs/bla.cfg wrietable by www-data
[12:07] <Seveas> mirak, quit it.
[12:07] <larsson_> i ran fsck and it found corruptions. It says i can use --rebuild tree, will this erase the data on my disc?
[12:07] <mirak> Seveas: I quited
[12:07] <Seveas> QPAD|war-away: chmod g+w /path/to/file, chown :www-data /path/to/file
[12:07] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Oh, FYI, I am a past Debian user ;P
[12:07] <fissy> Mastus: yeah, the command you said. sorry... had to read through all that crap
[12:08] <Kyral_FreeBSD> but just as much, I am a Hacker
[12:08] <Mastus> fissy: Yea, tried it.. aticonfig --query-monitor gives "Enabled displays: Crt1, TV" (no picture on telly, though) then if i try to aticonfig --enable-monitor=crt1,tv - it scrambles the picture (like some weird sync problem)
[12:08] <nanotube> judah, heh well anyway, thanks for the discussion ;)
[12:08] <judah> nanotube: anytime!
[12:08] <ompaul> mirak, cease and go to that channel or I will kick you if he does not - there is a channel called #ubuntu-offtopic for that very reason - you are invited to go there to continue
[12:08] <Kyral_FreeBSD> cya on the flipside
[12:08] <larsson_> i ran fsck and it found corruptions. It says i can use --rebuild tree, will this erase the data on my disc?
[12:08] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:08] <Mastus> Then if I try to enable only the crt1, it's still scrambled, and I have to restart X
[12:09] <rmflagg> I have a laptop with an Intel PRO/Wirelessbg card in it, and I can no longer connect to WEP encrypted APs.  This use to work under Breezy.  Does anyone know what the problem could be?
[12:10] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:10] <bulltitan> any help with my problem will be ok
[12:10] <Lorri> Is there a way for gnome to save sessions upon logout like KDE does
[12:10] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed.
[12:10] <Mastus> Got a picture on TV(all scrambled on both monitors), when did a "dual monitor setup" (aticonfig query: crt1, crt2)
[12:10] <fissy> Mastus: are you using a laptop?
[12:10] <lampshade> omg I hate irssit
[12:10] <lampshade> irssi
[12:10] <lampshade> ugh
[12:11] <Mastus> fissy: Nope. Have a 9550SE Radeon
[12:11] <judah> irssi is DA BOMB.
[12:11] <larsson_> Need help with fsck! It says it found bad nodes and corrupted data on the disc. Can it fix that without erasing my data on it?
[12:11] <Bill_gates``> Lorri: I think that breasy did
[12:11] <Mastus> fissy: And no, I don't have two monitors, and a TV, but the dual monitor thing and aticonfig --enable tv, gave me picture but all scrambled...
[12:11] <judah> lampshade: what's not to like?
[12:11] <nanotube> rmflagg, so i take it that it stopped working after you upgraded to dapper?
[12:11] <ProN00b> do iptables settings survive reboot ?
[12:11] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed.
[12:11] <nanotube> ProN00b, no
[12:11] <Mastus> fissy: Got it somewhat working on Breezy though
[12:12] <nanotube> ProN00b, you have to set up a boot script to restore iptables settings if you want them to survive
[12:12] <fissy> Mastus: are you sure you have all the things like signal formats set up right?
[12:12] <Mastus> fissy: Yep, PAL-B, VIDEO
[12:12] <rmflagg> nanotube: Yes, after installing Dapper, the ability to connecto WEP connection has ceased.  Network Manager also no longer works...it doesn't find the interface.
[12:12] <fissy> PAL-B? which country are you in?
[12:12] <Mastus> Finland
[12:13] <nanotube> rmflagg, ah, well, go to wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager, it will tell you how to edit your /etc/network/interfaces to make it work
[12:13] <fissy> I thought just about everyone used PAL-M in europe, but if you're sure...
[12:13] <eugman> Will signing my emails with my key cause any problems for clients that don't deal with that stuff?
[12:13] <ProN00b> nanotube, i have this iptable setting i always have after reboot, got any idea what it could be (i flushed it already and don't have it anymore)
[12:13] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed... pl0x help me...
[12:13] <Mastus> fissy: Well, TV supports PAL-B, PAL-G and PAL-M
[12:13] <nanotube> rmflagg, i, too, have a laptop with that wireless nic. haven't upgraded to dapper yet, though :)
[12:13] <Seveas> eugman, no, it will appear as an attachment
[12:14] <eugman> Cool.
[12:14] <nanotube> ProN00b, ah, well, it would be one of the scripts in /etc/init.d/  look around there.
[12:14] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed... I promise to contribute to ubuntu as much as possible when i get this working :)
[12:14] <rmflagg> nanotube: It connects to unencrypted aps just fine.  It just won't connect to WEP aps at all.
[12:14] <nanotube> ProN00b, if you want your current "default" iptables settings to change, you would either remove that script, or edit it to suit you.
[12:14] <Mastus> fissy: Can it be a somekind of detection problem? Like when it goes all scrambled, monitor gives the resolution 1024x768@85Hz... I don't think it's right on cloned desktop
[12:14] <ProN00b> nanotube, "cat /etc/init.d/*|grep iptable" gives nothing
[12:15] <fissy> Mastus, you're trying to do cloned desktop between crt and tv?
[12:15] <nanotube> rmflagg, hmm, interesting. well, if nothing on that wiki page helps, i am out of ideas... because i am still running breezy...
[12:15] <Mastus> fissy: Well that would be a start
[12:15] <nanotube> ProN00b, hmm, interesting. what is the "default" iptables setting when you reboot?
[12:15] <Bill_gates``> Can someone help me with my WG311v3?!
[12:15] <ProN00b> nanotube, i will ask you again when i reboot ^^
[12:15] <nanotube> haha ok
[12:16] <rmflagg> nanotube: Hopefully it will get corrected quickly because everything else about Dapper rocks!
[12:16] <ProN00b> i flushed it
[12:16] <Mastus> fissy: But in Breezy when enabling TV-out, monitor put the refresh rate in 60Hz
[12:16] <abonilla_> Is there a way to take a song from an ipod with gtkpod or rhythmbox?
[12:16] <abonilla_> or any app?
[12:16] <udo> does anyone knows how can i setup my ac97 onboard sound card.i have ubuntu 6.06 release
[12:16] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:16] <Bill_gates``> Can someone help me with my WG311v3?!!!one
[12:16] <nanotube> rmflagg, well, that's why i am waiting to upgrade for about a month, until all such quirks get worked out. :) since breezy is solid as a rock for me, and everything i want works, i am in no hurry to upgrade.
[12:16] <dragonkh> hello - can anyone help me with compiling c stuff for windows using mingw ?
[12:16] <Bill_gates``> !justask
[12:16] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[12:17] <Mastus> fissy: Because I haven't done a "dual desktop" setup yet, so "enable tv-out" should gave a clone desktop
[12:17] <wogi> Anyone able to use a GAL in evolution 2.6 (dapper)?
[12:17] <Bill_gates``> !justask billgates
[12:17] <ubotu> Bill_gates``: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:17] <fissy> Mastus: buy nvidia? :D
[12:17] <abonilla> Is there a way to take a song from an ipod with gtkpod or rhythmbox?
[12:17] <fissy> Mastus: sorry, can't think how to do it now...
[12:17] <dragonkh> how do I fix this ? configure: error: mingw32 must be linked to DLL
[12:18] <Mastus> fissy: Have thought about a thousand times, and everyday at work :)
[12:18] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed... I promise to contribute to ubuntu as much as possible when i get this working :)
[12:18] <udo> does anyone knows how can i setup my ac97 onboard sound card.i have ubuntu 6.06 release
[12:18] <NW_Attila> fissy have you got an nvidia?
[12:19] <Mastus> oh, one more thing: Got this error  "FGLRX_EnableDisplays returned 7" when trying --enable-monitors
[12:19] <Seveas> Bill_gates``, stop repeating...
[12:19] <fissy> NW_Attila: sadly no, but the grass is always greener on the otherside. especially if you own ati
[12:19] <HariSundararajan> I want a little bit of help, can someone tell me how to disable certain kernel modules from loading during boot times? (I am thinking of lkm <-- loadable kernel modules )
[12:19] <Bill_gates``> seveas: sorry, i just really need to get this soon, i have been working on it for around a month now
[12:19] <rambo3> blacklist them
[12:19] <HariSundararajan> rambo3, how do I black list them?
[12:19] <HariSundararajan> Is there a command to do it?
[12:20] <ikken> is there a big collection of 3rd party Linux drivers for unsupported hardware? I'm looking for an M-Audio MobilePre USb Preamp driver for Linux
[12:20] <Seveas> HariSundararajan, create a file called /etc/modproble.d/my_blacklist, and add lines looking like this:
[12:20] <Seveas> blacklist module1
[12:20] <Seveas> blacklist module2
[12:20] <Seveas> etcetera 
[12:20] <Elive_user> Hello?
[12:20] <ikken> hello
[12:20] <Tommy2k4> whats the command to bring up the folder permissions window
[12:21] <Tommy2k4> as root
[12:21] <HariSundararajan> Seveas, is there any command, or do I have to type it in?
[12:21] <Seveas> HariSundararajan, you will have to type it in
[12:21] <NW_Attila> Hi all, I'm on a laptop with a Synaptic touchpad:today it stopped working, but yesterday it was working well
[12:21] <felixruina> has anyone had trouble with soundconverter not being able to read id3 tags of mp3 files in Dapper?
[12:21] <rambo3> ,/etc/modprobed.d/blacklist and read man blacklist
[12:21] <chris_> JOIN #automatix
[12:21] <HariSundararajan> Seveas, ok thanks. will try it out ...
[12:21] <nanotube> Bill_gates``, have you tried searching the forums, to see how others have configured that card?
[12:21] <Mastus> ok, got it all scrambled again :) Stupid ATI
[12:21] <Bill_gates``> nanotube: yes, but it won't work for me
[12:21] <Elive_user> Dose anyone know an open source program that will make an image of my windows partion,  so I could put it on an external disk?
[12:22] <Bill_gates``> nanotube: i followed all the instructions, but i keep having problems
[12:22] <rambo3> mkiso ?
[12:22] <nanotube> Elive_user, maybe partimage (i am not sure if it does ntfs, but probably)
[12:22] <Mastus> Elive_user: dd?
[12:22] <felixruina> dd is what I'd use
[12:22] <geeksauce> is there a good program that will allow you to view the contents of a rar archive without unraring them?
[12:22] <Tobberoth> I need a good music organizer, IE one which works like iTunes. I want it to be able to list music just like Rythmbox,  be able to change ID3 tags(And create folders etc to keep it all in order) and all that stuff.
[12:22] <nanotube> Bill_gates``, i see. well, that's all i can suggest, because i don't have that card myself, so don't know any specifics.
[12:22] <Elive_user> DD?
[12:22] <udo> does anyone knows how can i setup my ac97 onboard sound card.i have ubuntu 6.06 release
[12:22] <Bill_gates``> nanotube: thanks anyways
[12:23] <felixruina> Tobberoth--have you looked at Banshee?
[12:23] <Elive_user> What is dd?
[12:23] <Xyc0> What is the name of the flash plugin for Firefox?  flashplugin-nonfree doesn't seem to be in my repos
[12:23] <SAM_theman> hey folks
[12:23] <nanotube> Bill_gates``, sorry i couldn't be of more help.
[12:23] <rambo3> udo you can start buy reading alsas homepage
[12:23] <Tobberoth> felixruina: Yeah, I'm using banshee now.. It's just not working. It won't control folders etc, and it won't sort artists good at all in the library..
[12:23] <nanotube> Elive_user, try "man dd" :) its a program for reading/writing stuff to disk.
[12:23] <Tobberoth> If i sort songs by Artists, the albums aren't left intact.
[12:23] <Tobberoth> it seems very random.
[12:23] <SAM_theman> Here is my ubutnu 6.06 (http://img370.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot3dm.png)
[12:23] <Sivik> anyone use enlightenment here?
[12:24] <SAM_theman> Tell me if you like it
[12:24] <nanotube> Xyc0, did you enable the universe and multiverse repositories?
[12:24] <Elive_user> Alright.
[12:24] <felixruina> elive_user-- dd is a linux command you can use to make exact images of disks
[12:24] <Matthewv> Sivik: i did...

[12:25] <SAM_theman> rambo3, Lol was just a joke
[12:25] <Tobberoth> felixruina: No, looking into it now..

[12:25] <SAM_theman> neutrinomass, "sudo apt-get install gdesklets gdesklets-data"
[12:25] <Tommy2k4> do i need to change the permissions of the place im trying to mount to
[12:26] <neutrinomass> SAM_theman: Heh, one reason to learn what gdesklets is all about. Thanks a lot !
[12:26] <udo> my system detect my sound card but i cant hear anything what happen?
[12:26] <sorush21> hi ugys

[12:26] <felixruina> gorski_ -- what seems to be going on?
[12:26] <gymsmoke> anyone ever installed odbcunix ?
[12:26] <udo> yes i chech
[12:26] <Xyc0> nanotube: I clicked the boxes next to all the inactive repo entries through synaptic
[12:26] <gymsmoke> udo: yak se mas ?
[12:26] <sorush21> during boot up I keep getting the message that hda: timeout waiting for DMA what can I do ?
[12:26] <Tedd> HELLO KYRAL.
[12:26] <Kyral> .....
[12:27] <Tommy2k4> whats the command to bring up the folder permissions window
[12:27] <Bassetts> what is a good terminal irc client?
[12:27] <pppoe_dude> Bassetts, irssi
[12:27] <Matthewv> Sivik: i found it great to play with (e17) but I prefer gnome for general use
[12:27] <gorski_> alsa plays but no sound.
[12:27] <Kyral> Bassetts: Irssi
[12:27] <Matthewv> Bassetts: irssi
[12:27] <Yoosah> Bassetts: irssi-text
[12:27] <Tobberoth> Does amaroK work on GNOME?
[12:27] <Bassetts> cheers
[12:27] <rambo3> ls -la
[12:27] <Kyral> Tobberoth: yes
[12:27] <pppoe_dude> thats unanimous~
[12:27] <Matthewv> Tobberoth: yes
[12:27] <Elive_user> partimage says that ntfs is experimental.
[12:27] <Bassetts> i guess its good then
[12:27] <felixruina> Tobberoth:  yes, with the kde libs installed
[12:27] <Elive_user> =/
[12:27] <Kyral> Watch someone say BitchX now :P
[12:27] <Bassetts> seeing as four people told me =P
[12:27] <Tobberoth> Allright, goodies
[12:27] <Sivik> Matthewv: i hate gnome
[12:27] <nanotube> Xyc0, hmm, ic... well, you could always just get the flashplugin download from macromedia, extract the .so and .xpt files, and shove them into the firefox plugins directory. "manual install" if you will :)
[12:28] <felixruina> gorski_: was it working before?
[12:28] <Yoosah> i love fluxbox
[12:28] <Kyral> Fluxbox FTW
[12:28] <ikken> me too
[12:28] <Yoosah> \o/
[12:28] <geeksauce> anyone know of a good program for handling .rar files, a linux equivalent of winrar, perhaps?
[12:28] <judah> age old story..
[12:28] <ikken> when I use amaroK, it keeps saying that the sound server is busy...how do I fix this?
[12:28] <gorski_> before i loaded alsa sequencer
[12:28] <pppoe_dude> ikken, change the output device
[12:28] <Aven> hi
[12:29] <pppoe_dude> ikken, in the settings->engine
[12:29] <Aven> I created another user with ubuntu, however...
[12:29] <Xyc0> nanotube: where is the plugin directory?  home?
[12:29] <Matthewv> Sivik: to each his own ;) I'm planning to reinstall e17 one day (reinstalled dapper this morning) but until then gnome is fine for me, i cant really use e17 full time...
[12:29] <Keps> how do i clean up the old entries in the alt+F2 run application box?
[12:29] <judah> geeksauce: apt-cache search unrar
[12:29] <Aven> he isn't able to open any program such as Firefox
[12:29] <Sivik> Matthewv, why can't you use it all the time?
[12:29] <Aven> what kind of permissions would I have to set?
[12:29] <udo> how can i fix audio?
[12:29] <nanotube> Xyc0, on the default install of firefox, it would be somewhere like /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[12:30] <Aven> anyone ?
[12:30] <ikken> pppoe_dude: where is settings->engine? I can't find it
[12:30] <pppoe_dude> udo, does running sudo esd make any sound?
[12:30] <nanotube> or /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins if you are on breezy
[12:30] <pppoe_dude> ikken, settings->amarok settings->engine tab
[12:30] <nanotube> Xyc0, or /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins if you are on breezy
[12:30] <Aven> I created another user with ubuntu, however...
[12:30] <Matthewv> Sivik: I find that in general the interface just gets in the way at times <-- maybe if I'd used it as much as gnome i wouldn't take anything else
[12:30] <Aven> he isn't able to open any program such as Firefox
[12:30] <Aven> what kind of permissions would I have to set?
[12:30] <ikken> pppoe_dude: all it has is xine, no other engines listed
[12:31] <Aven> I created another user with ubuntu, however...
[12:31] <Aven> he isn't able to open any program such as Firefox
[12:31] <Aven> what kind of permissions would I have to set?
[12:31] <Kyral> Aven: is he in the Users group?
[12:31] <pppoe_dude> ikken, not under engines, but under output device, select esd or alsa
[12:31] <rambo3> set UID to 1000
[12:31] <dratliff> what is the command to extract .deb file?
[12:31] <Keps> how do i clean up the old entries in the alt+F2 run application box?
[12:31] <Sivik> Mattewv: i like the eas of moving from each window are
[12:31] <Sivik> area*
[12:31] <Keps> dpkg
[12:31] <Aven> Kyral: I added him via command line
[12:31] <Kyral> dratliff: extract?
[12:31] <Aven> rambo3: how would I do that?
[12:31] <Matthewv> Sivik: btw, how does e17 do with dual screens? dyou know?
[12:31] <philc> can I get near 100% performance with Ubuntu running in vmware on Windows, ignoring memory consumption?
[12:31] <Kyral> Aven: then it should be automatic
[12:31] <Sivik> Mattewv: nope
[12:31] <Kyral> philc: no way in heck
[12:31] <eugman> How do I force a re-sync of my clock right now?
[12:31] <pppoe_dude> dratliff, are you trying to extract or install
[12:31] <Sivik> Mattewv: i'm trying to get e17 to install, but i'm getting some ./configure errors
[12:31] <Aven> all I did was 'useradd username' ;p
[12:32] <Aven> either way, how would I edit the UID of a user?
[12:32] <Matthewv> Sivik: maybe I'll try that for myself one day :)
[12:32] <Kyral> philc: not with VMWare, not with Xen
[12:32] <judah> eugman: sudo /etc/init.d/ntpdate restart
[12:32] <dratliff> for some reason, the archive manager is associated with it.  I am trying to install it
[12:32] <Sivik> Matthewv, ok
[12:32] <philc> Kyral: why?
[12:32] <pppoe_dude> Aven, better to use 'sudo users-admin' to add users (does all the permissions for you
[12:32] <Sivik> Mattewv: i'm going to have to buy a kvm switch when i get my server, an old computer from my parents
[12:32] <Xyc0> nanotube: is there a way to drag and drop with sudo?
[12:32] <Aven> ah ok
[12:32] <rhyddin> hey, i installed jack and some alsa plugins and suddenly i have no sound ..
[12:32] <pppoe_dude> dratliff, dpkg -i <package name>
[12:32] <Matthewv> Sivik: i just ssh into my server
[12:33] <Kyral> Aven: try sudo usermod -G -a users <login>
[12:33] <ikken> pppoe_dude: neither alsa, esd, or oss worked
[12:33] <Sivik> Mattewv: thats cool
[12:33] <dratliff> k, thank you
[12:33] <udo> does anyone have ac97 chipset?
[12:33] <Sivik> Matthewv: i could do that as well
[12:33] <siriusnova> lol i think im about to fry my cpu http://web.umr.edu/~taknnc/zomg-cpudeath.png
[12:33] <nanotube> Xyc0, run "sudo nautilus" that will open a file browser in root mode. then you can drag and drop anything. (but be careful not to drag anything wrong and screw up the system, of course)
[12:33] <siriusnova> ooops
[12:33] <pppoe_dude> ikken, do you get any sound in ubuntu?
[12:33] <siriusnova> wrong room :X
[12:33] <pppoe_dude> ikken, e.g. startup sound, bells, etc.
[12:33] <Aven> Kyral: says "Unknown group -a"
[12:33] <ikken> pppoe_dude: I don't know - I was testing that with amaroK
[12:33] <Aven> do I just remove -a?
[12:33] <Kyral> Aven: hmm
[12:34] <pppoe_dude> ikken, from a terminal, type "sudo killall esd" then "sudo esd" do you get a sound?
[12:34] <Kyral> damnit whats that format...
[12:34] <Kyral> usermod -a -G users <login>
[12:34] <Kyral> I think...
[12:34] <Aven> ah ok
[12:34] <Kyral> the manpage is vague on it
[12:34] <udo> does anyone have ac97 chipset?
[12:34] <ikken> yes
[12:35] <ikken> pppoe_dude: I got a sound
[12:35] <freddyubuntu> I want to add a simple Red Circle to an MPEG video .what program do you suggest  ?
[12:35] <kung> gn8
[12:35] <odin> I got totem-gstreamer-mozilla the other day but firefox's streaming video still seems to default to mplayer, how can I switch it?
[12:35] <pppoe_dude> ikken, then choose esd as the sound output device in amaroK and restart amaroK
[12:35] <Kyral> philc: the reason why it won't ever be 100% is because the resources are being shared
[12:35] <Aven> this is confusing
[12:35] <Aven> nothing opens, not even my home directory
[12:35] <Xyc0> nanotube: sweet, thanks a ton
[12:36] <pppoe_dude> ikken, and run "sudo esd&" after you press "ctrl+C" from the terminal window
[12:36] <freddyubuntu> what program do you suggest for a simple MPEG VIDEO editing? (like adding a small red circel to a part of the mpeg video ) ?
[12:36] <udo> does anyone have ac97 chipset?
[12:36] <philc> Kyral: I would think the virtualization program would consume all cpu resources while the host is idle. Is there some instruction translation overhead that has to occur?
[12:36] <odin> freddyubuntu, try Kino(?)
[12:36] <ikken> pppoe_dude: ok, got it working
[12:36] <nanotube> Xyc0, so it works now, then? :)
[12:37] <freddyubuntu> odln , Kino says it cant open MPEG
[12:37] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help me with smb4k / samba
[12:37] <Xyc0> yea, I ended up just running the installer with sudo
[12:37] <felixruina> freddyubuntu: I've heard that Diva is becoming quite useable now too
[12:37] <Kyral> philc: yes, and you also have to understand that a system is NEVER idle :P
[12:37] <Kyral> philc: there is always something going on
[12:37] <freddyubuntu> what is diva?
[12:37] <Xyc0> nanotube: is there another way to activate the multiverse repo, or did I do that right?
[12:37] <freddyubuntu> felixruina: what is diva?
[12:38] <felixruina> freddyubuntu: http://www.diva-project.org/
[12:38] <Tobberoth> Okey, this is odd. amaroK won't play my mp3s, it just skips them. The mp3s work great in Rythmbox and Banshee, what's the problem?
[12:38] <Kyral> Tobberoth: switch Amarok to whatever Backend they are using
[12:38] <felixruina> freddyubuntu: Pitivi is another one, but I don't think it's as far along
[12:38] <Tobberoth> Kyral: How?
[12:38] <nanotube> Xyc0, your way should work... but just in case, you should check your file /etc/apt/sources.list and see if the mustiverse and universe repositories are present and uncommented.
[12:38] <Kyral> Tobberoth: look in the Options menu for a start :P
[12:38] <freddyubuntu> what do you mean of , it is not far along?
[12:39] <Zaghurim> :*
[12:39] <Tobberoth> Kyral: I am, I can't find any such thing.
[12:39] <Kyral> Tobberoth: Xine options
[12:39] <felixruina> freddyubuntu:  they are both very new projects still in alpha releases...I don't know how functional Pitivi is yet
[12:39] <Kyral> Tobberoth: Engine even
[12:39] <freddyubuntu> aha ..a question about IRC chat, do you ppl manualy enter each ppl's user name to Reply him?
[12:40] <Tobberoth> Kyral: It's set to xine, and there's no other engine availible.
[12:40] <rambo3> tab
[12:40] <freddyubuntu> or there is something which automaticly qoutes the username?
[12:40] <rab> I want to format my windows drive to ext3 for extra space for linux, how would i do this without destroying my MBR
[12:40] <felix_> your mother
[12:40] <pppoe_dude> freddyubuntu, after typing the first frew letters of a nick name, you can press tab to autocomplete
[12:40] <rezzcobain> Anyone here that wouldn't mind spending some time helping a new user to linux?
[12:40] <Kyral> Tobberoth: What is Banshee using
[12:40] <rambo3> freddyubuntu user tab for auto completer
[12:40] <Tobberoth> Hold on
[12:40] <felix_> your father
[12:40] <Sivik> rab: after you format that drive, you can reinstall the grub
[12:40] <Spy>  #ubuntu-xgl
[12:40] <Kyral> rab: partitioners don't touch the MBR
[12:40] <Sivik> !grub
[12:40] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[12:41] <felix_> ja,ja,ja
[12:41] <rab> sivik how
[12:41] <Sivik> !tell rab about grub
[12:41] <Tobberoth> Kyral: It's using GStreamer 2
[12:41] <Kyral> Tobberoth: search apt for something like "amarok-gstreamer" or something
[12:41] <jenda> Can I transfer profile data of mozilla thunderbird from XP directly to Ubuntu?
[12:41] <Tobberoth> okey
[12:41] <tita1> I try to play London Law, and it says:
[12:41] <Spy> okay every1 today is a great day
[12:41] <tita1>  from twisted.internet import protocol, reactor
[12:41] <tita1> ImportError: No module named twisted.internet
[12:41] <Kyral> Tobberoth: this search command should turn up something. "apt-cache search amarok | grep gstreamer"
[12:42] <Kyral> tita1: you need Twisted Phython :P
[12:42] <udo> MPEG 1 Layer 3 CBR what is this mean?
[12:42] <tita1> can anyone help me with that?
[12:42] <felixruina> Tobberoth: you might also try amarok-xine, as xine is usually pretty good
[12:42] <Kyral> tita1: don't ask me what the package
[12:42] <tita1> how do I get that?
[12:42] <tita1> oh
[12:42] <rezzcobain> What is the command to install a program? sudo apt-cache...?
[12:42] <tita1> lol
[12:42] <tita1> kay
[12:42] <Tobberoth> felixruina: It's using xine, it ain't working.
[12:42] <odin> rezzcobain, sudo apt-get install [file] 
[12:42] <Kyral> felixruina: it ain't working :P
[12:42] <Matthewv> udomp3
[12:42] <rezzcobain> Thanks
[12:42] <Matthewv> udo mp3 sry
[12:42] <felixruina> Tobberoth: oh, gotcha XD
[12:43] <Kyral> udo: means its a MP3. Moving Pictures Entertainment Group 1 Layer 3 :P
[12:43] <Bill_gates``> Hi all, i am trying to get my WG311v3 working on my computer, can anyone guide me through this? i already have ndiswrapper and ndisgtk installed... I promise to contribute to ubuntu as much as possible when i get this working :)
[12:43] <Tobberoth> Kyral: Nothing showed up..
[12:43] <delire> odin: no, 'sudo apt-get install <packagename>'. you're thinking of 'sudo dpkg -i <file>'
[12:43] <udo> Audio codec 'MPEG 1 Layer 3 CBR' is not handled what is this mean?
[12:43] <Kyral> Tobberoth: try...gst
[12:43] <Kyral> udo: means no MP3 support
[12:43] <Tobberoth> Still nothing.
[12:43] <pppoe_dude> Kyral, Motion Picture Expert Group
[12:43] <rezzcobain> Could anyone help me get a nice large list of repositories and put them in?
[12:43] <odin> delire, no, I'm not, forgive me for calling it [file]  instead of packagename, sheesh
[12:43] <tita1> python-twisted - Event-based framework for internet applications (transitional p ackage)
[12:43] <Kyral> pppoe_dude: thanks I forgot what the E was :P
[12:43] <rab> sivik, i'm unsure on how to do this tho
[12:43] <tita1> that would be it, right?
[12:43] <Kyral> tita1: yes
[12:43] <delire> odin: big difference ;)
[12:43] <Sivik> did you google grub?
[12:43] <tita1> sweet, thank you.
[12:44] <teclis> hi, is their a possibility to stop the annonying broken-dependancy messages from the package-manager? I have one with gaim-thinklight and gaim 2 beta 3 - gaim-thinklight requires gaim 1.x or below and shows a dependancy error, but it works for me without any problems.
[12:44] <felixruina> Tobberoth: try installing the arts engine maybe?  amarok-arts
[12:44] <Kyral> Tobberoth: try "apt-cache search amarok | grep gst"
[12:44] <pppoe_dude> rezzcobain, google ubuntu source-o-matic and click on first hit
[12:44] <udo> how can i support mp3 to my system?
[12:44] <Kyral> !mp3
[12:44] <thoreauputic> !mp3
[12:44] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:44] <Kyral> Damnyou
[12:44] <Tobberoth> Kyral: I allready tried that, nothing showed up. felixruina: I'm doing that now.. hope it works.
[12:44] <Sivik> rab: google reinstall grub
[12:44] <Sivik> there are hundreds of places that explain it
[12:44] <Kyral> I KNOW Amarok can use GST as its backend
[12:45] <rab> no
[12:45] <felixruina> Kyral: is there an arts-gstreamer wrapper maybe?
[12:45] <Kyral> Whoa no way
[12:45] <Kyral> it was removed from Breezy
[12:45] <crimsun_> s/Breezy/Dapper/
[12:45] <rab> Sivik: im unsure on what i should do, erase my windows partition then just reinstall grub?
[12:45] <Kyral> as in it was IN Breezy but not in Dapper
[12:45] <delire> rab: 'sudo grub-install' should do it.
[12:45] <felixruina> Kyral:  gotcha
[12:45] <Kyral> ....who did that...lemme smack them
[12:45] <pppoe_dude> jenda, you might be able to copy the whole profile directory
[12:46] <delire> rab: can you access the system with the broken grub?
[12:46] <pppoe_dude> jenda, and then "import" your settings
[12:46] <crimsun_> Kyral: it's not as well maintained upstream, so it makes sense.
[12:46] <rab> if i dont have my widnows drive plugged in
[12:46] <Kyral> Tobberoth: anyway Xine should work with the libxine-extracodecs package
[12:46] <Tobberoth> Kyral: Man, that person is evil... the arts engine won't work for me, so gstreamer is my only chouse
[12:46] <Tobberoth> okey kyral, I'll try that
[12:46] <valehru> hey..how can I create a symlink to a directory for an ftp user to view a directory outside of their root?
[12:46] <delire> rab: right. sorry i just dropped in. can you explain what you want to do?
[12:46] <Kyral> crimsun_: you sure? I thought it was a compile-time option?
[12:46] <crimsun_> Kyral: it is a compile-time option, and it's not as well maintained.
[12:46] <pppoe_dude> valehru, that would still depend on the permissions of the directory
[12:47] <rab> delire, I want to erase my windows drive and last time i did that i couldnt boot with the windows drive plugged in
[12:47] <valehru> well..its sudo doing it
[12:47] <jenda> pppoe_dude: done ;) works.
[12:47] <Sivik> delire, he wants to format his windows partition but that would make him lose grub
[12:47] <Kyral> ...how can one part of Amarok be not maintained as well. I mean ....nevermind I don't know Amarok's internals
[12:47] <Sivik> delire: i told him he can reinstall grub after he formats the drive
[12:47] <failgis> dcc send 'startkeylogger' 0 0 0
[12:47] <valehru> I want the user to view specific folders that are outside their dir....so I presume setting up a symlink in their home dir would do the trick
[12:47] <failgis> goddamnit lol
[12:48] <Kyral> ...someone ban him
[12:48] <delire> rab: ahah, well the best way to do this is to boot off a LiveCD sadly, like the Ubuntu CD.
[12:48] <rezzcobain> Would anyone mind private chatting with me, im new to linux and have a few questions?
[12:48] <delire> rab: plug in the windows drive and boot up with the CD in your CDROM drive.
[12:48] <rab> and do ?
[12:48] <delire> rab: from there i can help you fix it.
[12:48] <Kyral> rezzcobain: ask here
[12:48] <rab> delire, i havent let formatted it
[12:48] <Tobberoth> darnit, now amarok won't load.. reinstall time, sigh
[12:49] <felixruina> Tobberoth: what's it doing?
[12:49] <Kyral> okay I need to make dinner
[12:49] <rapha> No Ubuntu install *CD*s anymore?!?
[12:49] <Kyral> if its important, leave a PMSG
[12:49] <Tobberoth> felixruina: Basically, it shows the splash image and load it
[12:49] <zxc3333> Are the eagle-usb stuff supplied with the install CD "broken"
[12:49] <Tobberoth> then nothing shows up
[12:49] <delire> rab: you can format the drive from the LiveCD.
[12:49] <gorski_> why do i get this message at boot: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory ?
[12:49] <rapha> How are you supposed to get it installed on computer with no DVD drives then??
[12:50] <delire> rab: but sure, format it first using whatever method you like.
[12:50] <Sivik> rapha: use a cd
[12:50] <rezzcobain> I need help getting a large repository list and installing it
[12:50] <crimsun_> zxc3333: yes, and there's a bug open on it.
[12:50] <Kyral> rapha: trhe installer is on the Live System
[12:50] <Sivik> rapha: what are you trying to install?
[12:50] <felixruina> Tobberoth: did this happen after installing xine or arts?
[12:50] <rapha> Sivik: Kyral: how?? The images on http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/releases/6.06/release/ are 3GB in size. They don't fit a CD.
[12:50] <Tobberoth> felixruina: arts.
[12:50] <felixruina> Tobberoth: did you uninstall arts then?
[12:50] <rapha> Sivik: just Dapper, on my old notebook. No DVD drive there :-(
[12:50] <bryan__> hey how do you set the root password on a brand new install
[12:51] <Tobberoth> Yeah
[12:51] <delire> rab: from the LiveCD we'll mount your Ubuntu partition, and then 'chroot' into it, enabling us to reinstall grub.
[12:51] <Sivik> rapha: rapha: http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[12:51] <pppoe_dude> bryan__, join #ubuntu-classroom
[12:51] <Sivik> rapha: do it from there
[12:51] <rab> delire, couldnt I just partition it here?
[12:51] <rapha> thx Sivik!
[12:51] <Sivik> rapha: yw
[12:51] <delire> rab: where's 'here'?
[12:51] <acidjedi> Could someone help me configure GRUB, I've used the !grub thing but I am stuck
[12:51] <rab> now
[12:51] <rab> when im in the ubuntu drive
[12:51] <oezguer> hi  everybody
[12:52] <Tobberoth> Okey, it's toast. Now amarok won't start, even if I completely remove it and reinstall it.
[12:52] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help me with smb4k
[12:52] <bryan__> anyone know how to set the root password on a new install of ubuntu 5.0.1
[12:52] <Sivik> rapha: yw
[12:52] <delire> rab: sure, but i thought you said the windows drive wasn't plugged in?
[12:52] <felixruina> Tobberoth: do you have universe and multiverse repositories?
[12:52] <rab> That was last time
[12:52] <oezguer> can i use camfrog chat program in ubuntu?   with wine  openning camfrog? is it possible?
[12:52] <Tobberoth> yeah, i have all repositories open.
[12:52] <delire> rab: oh. sure partition it now with gparted.
[12:52] <delire> rab: then 'sudo grub-install' when done.
[12:52] <bryan__> bueller
[12:52] <acidjedi> Could someone help me configure GRUB, I've used the !grub thing but I am stuck
[12:52] <bryan__> bueller
[12:52] <pppoe_dude> bryan__, type sudo passwd
[12:53] <Tobberoth> felixruina: I tried runing amarok in terminal, and I get tons of errors.
[12:53] <rab> ah
[12:53] <rab> ok
[12:53] <felixruina> Tobberoth: what kind of errors?
[12:53] <delire> rab: that will install grub into the MBR and all will be well.
[12:53] <Tobberoth> BadDevice, lots of them.
[12:53] <felixruina> Can you pm a paste of the output?
[12:54] <rab> format with ext3?
[12:54] <acidjedi> What will install grub onto the MBR?
[12:54] <acidjedi> I need to knoqw
[12:54] <delire> rab: i would yes
[12:54] <Subhuman_> acidjedi, not if you choose it not too
[12:54] <Subhuman_> acidjedi, for that you will need the alternative install CD
[12:54] <Subhuman_> oh "what"
[12:54] <acidjedi> I can only boot into windows, and I want a choice
[12:54] <moua> hi
[12:54] <NsOmNiAc> there is a command you can run to remove everything KDE just can't remember it can someone refresh my memory
[12:54] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, yes
[12:54] <Subhuman_> acidjedi, then just let ubuntu install grub then.
[12:54] <moua> acidjedi owned :P http://www.orkspace.net/owned/
[12:54] <acidjedi> How?
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, type apt-cache pkginfo kubuntu-desktop
[12:55] <Tobberoth> man, how do i fix this, amarok seemed really nice :/
[12:55] <lib8264q> hello all :0
[12:55] <delire> acidjedi: have you already installed Ubuntu?
[12:55] <rab> delire,  k its all formated. Now just sudo grub-install?
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, and remove all the dependencies
[12:55] <ColonelPanic001> Amarok is neat-o
[12:55] <acidjedi> Yes delire
[12:55] <delire> rab: yep.
[12:55] <rab> thanks
[12:55] <Tobberoth> It's not so neat-o when it won't start >:
[12:55] <lib8264q> can someoen help me with totem-xine ?
[12:55] <delire> acidjedi: is the windows drive plugged in? can you mount it?
[12:55] <acidjedi> And I installed windows on a different partition, and now it only boots windows
[12:55] <felixruina> Tobberoth: try installing arts again, along with gstreamer0.8-artsd along with amarok-engines
[12:55] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, oops... apt-cache showpkg
[12:55] <delire> acidjedi: ahah... ;)
[12:56] <Tobberoth> that seems sorta useless, the error isn't with arts of amarok, it must be one of the other packages it installed
[12:56] <Tobberoth> like the KDE lib or something
[12:56] <delire> acidjedi: you need to boot up off a LiveCD (the Dapper CD will do), mount your Ubuntu partition, and then 'chroot' into it. from there run 'sudo grub-instll'.
[12:56] <felixruina> Tobberoth: can you pm me the output?
[12:56] <Tobberoth> yeah
[12:56] <] GoldenDragon> hmm..i'm trying to install windows version of firefox using wine.. so I can install the shockwave plugin on it.... but I get an error "could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\Firefox.exe": Module not found
[12:56] <acidjedi> I'm in knoppix now, will that work?
[12:56] <delire> acidjedi: i would take you through the process, but i'm about to watch a film. many here will be able to guide you through.
[12:56] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, and then you might wanna do an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop just to make sure nothing importtant was removed
[12:56] <delire> acidjedi: yes.
[12:56] <] GoldenDragon> and when I try xwine it just doesnt do anything
[12:56] <NsOmNiAc> thanks
[12:57] <delire> acidjedi: mount the Ubuntu partition.
[12:57] <oezguer> anyone use camfrog at ubuntu?
[12:57] <acidjedi> it is
[12:57] <delire> rab: once installed 'sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst'
[12:57] <rab> delire, uhm ii dont know what arguments to give it
[12:57] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, or compare dependancies of ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop and remove the common packages from the list
[12:57] <Kassah> Seveas, ia32-libs-* doesn't seem to have opengl in there....?
[12:57] <lib8264q> anyone know why /tell me what i havent done that would make totem-xine  not stay open when i click on the icon in the menu
[12:57] <delire> acidjedi: cool. what is the mount point? /mnt/?
[12:58] <Subhuman_> lib8264q, try running it from the terminak , it may be showing errors
[12:58] <acidjedi> /mnt/hda1
[12:58] <Keps> how do i clean up the old entries in the alt+F2 run application box?
[12:58] <Tobberoth> well felixruina, what do you make of it?
[12:58] <delire> acidjedi: right, 'sudo chroot /mnt/hda1'
[12:58] <delire> rab: hmm you shouldn't need to from memory.
[12:58] <rab> ?
[12:58] <lib8264q> am  iv checked the system ... no missing files or dependencies
[12:58] <acidjedi> it says root@knoppix now in konsole
[12:58] <rab> sudo grub-install says i need arguments
[12:58] <delire> rab: just the device you want to install onto.
[12:59] <Kassah> is there 32bit libs for opengl?
[12:59] <felixruina> Tobberoth: it looks like it's having a problem initializing the sound card--looks almost like the kind of thing when oss and alsa are getting mad at each other
[12:59] <Kassah> in amd64 Ubuntu?
[12:59] <delire> rab: just the device name '/dev/hda' /dev/hdb etc. type 'sudo fdisk -l' to see what drive Ubuntu is on.
[12:59] <pppoe_dude> NsOmNiAc, better to compare first
[12:59] <rab> ah
[12:59] <] GoldenDragon> hmm..i'm trying to install windows version of firefox using wine.. so I can install the shockwave plugin on it.... but I get an error "could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\Firefox.exe": Module not found
[12:59] <delire> acidjedi: i need you to 'sudo fdisk -l' also
[01:00] <rab> ubuntu is mounted as / and disk say . is sdb1
[01:00] <rab> so i'll do that
[01:00] <Tobberoth> felixruina: Well, it seems some random package has incorrect settings because of the whole engine deal... and it messes up amaroK
[01:00] <rhyddin> what happened to my SOUND????
[01:00] <acidjedi> sudo: unable to lookup Knoppix via gethostbyname()
[01:00] <Tobberoth> since not even a reinstall fixed it
[01:00] <delire> acidjedi: that will list the partitions and devices. we need to be sure what hard disk Ubuntu is on. do you know?
[01:00] <pppoe_dude> acidjedi, did you change your hostname?
[01:00] <acidjedi> I know its hda1, but that command didn't work
[01:00] <delire> acidjedi: forget using sudo then. sorry, we don't need it now.
[01:00] <amarokker> can somone please see if you can login to my ftp server?
[01:00] <crimsun_> rhyddin: that's a bit vague, dontchathink?
[01:00] <felixruina> Tobberoth: go ahead and try installing the gstreamer0.8-artsd package and just see if that helps
[01:00] <rhyddin> hehe
[01:01] <rhyddin> a little
[01:01] <geeksauce> when unrar-free attempts to create a directory, it says permission denied...how do i grant this script permission to create directories?
[01:01] <delire> acidjedi: ok that's fine then. now just 'grub-install /dev/hda'
[01:01] <Tobberoth> I don't even have arts installed..
[01:01] <acidjedi> Do I need hda1 or just hda?
[01:01] <delire> rab: did that work? to check 'sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst' and look for your new grub menu.
[01:01] <squiggly> sudo rm -rf /
[01:01] <felixruina> Tobberoth: that's why I'm thinking maybe when we installed arts things got set to use it, but gstreamer was getting in the way
[01:01] <rab> delire: hold on
[01:01] <delire> acidjedi: just the device.
[01:01] <rhyddin> I installed Jack and the sound just dissapeared - then I uninstalled Jack thinkin I'd just get it back but NOOOO .. it wont return!!!
[01:01] <delire> squiggly: that's not helpful ;)
[01:02] <acidjedi> /dev/hda: Not found or not a block device.
[01:02] <felixruina> Tobberoth: that package should help wrap arts up to work with gstreamer
[01:02] <delire> acidjedi: eg 'grub-install /dev/hda'
[01:02] <amarokker> Anyone? Can you please try opening ftp://202.1.194.190?
[01:02] <crimsun_> rhyddin: does ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav'' result in audible sound?
[01:02] <delire> acidjedi: hmm are you sure Ubuntu is on that? type 'mount'
[01:02] <rhyddin> lemme check
[01:02] <felixruina> Tobberoth: it's all I can think of to do right now!
[01:02] <felixruina> Tobberoth: XD
[01:02] <acidjedi> /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[01:03] <rhyddin> crimsun_: That would be a negative!
[01:03] <] GoldenDragon> hmm..i'm trying to install windows version of firefox using wine.. so I can install the shockwave plugin on it.... but I get an error "could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\Firefox.exe": Module not found
[01:03] <rhyddin> crimsun_: It SAYS its playing but I hear nothing
[01:03] <crimsun_> rhyddin: does it hang, or does it appear to play (but is inaudible) eventually returning a prompt?
[01:03] <rab> delire: it still shows windows in the menu
[01:03] <rhyddin> crimsun_: It eventually returns to a prompt
[01:03] <delire> acidjedi: weird. are you sure you typed 'grub-install /dev/hda'
[01:04] <crimsun_> rhyddin: pastebin ``asoundconf list && amixer''
[01:04] <acidjedi> root@Knoppix:/# grub-install /dev/hda
[01:04] <acidjedi> /dev/hda: Not found or not a block device.
[01:04] <delire> rab: can you 'ls -l /boot/grub/menu.lst'?
[01:04] <Tobberoth> amazing felixruina O.o it actually starts now
[01:04] <Tobberoth> Hell, it even plays mp3s O.o
[01:04] <felixruina> Tobberoth: whew!!
[01:04] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Yikes. Lots of data
[01:05] <rab> yes
[01:05] <delire> acidjedi: hmm..
[01:05] <Tobberoth> felixruina: Good job! :D thanks
[01:05] <felixruina> Tobberoth: That's awesome!
[01:05] <delire> rab: what is the date string say?
[01:05] <crimsun_> rhyddin: right. Pastebin it.
[01:05] <delire> s/is/does
[01:05] <rab> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4016 2006-06-02 23:30 /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:05] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Pastebin?
[01:05] <crimsun_> !paste
[01:05] <geeksauce> i can't unrar rar files...help
[01:05] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel! Use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for pasting long texts as it does not distrupt the channel. You might also want to install the "webboard" package from Universe.
[01:05] <crimsun_> rhyddin: see above.
[01:05] <rhyddin> ah
[01:05] <delire> rab: it hasn't worked then.
[01:06] <trevor> I have a question. Is there a way to get the Sirius internet radio player to work in Ubuntu Dapper?
[01:06] <czer323> Quick question about the drives...  I think I've done something to convince the computer to auto mount /dev/sda1 (usb thumbdrive) automatically at startup, but I don't always have it plugged in.  how do i remove this?
[01:06] <jrib> ubotu: tell geeksauce about rar
[01:06] <czer323> !automount
[01:06] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, czer323
[01:06] <rhyddin> crimsun_: I'm using a windows box to type this .. my laptop with Ubuntu is next to me
[01:06] <acidjedi> delire: any idea?
[01:06] <delire> acidjedi: gimme a moment.
[01:06] <pppoe_dude> czer323, remove the line with /dev/sda from /etc/fstab
[01:06] <pppoe_dude> czer323, better to # it out
[01:06] <czer323> thanks, will try
[01:06] <ompaul> crimsun_, your work on alsa causes a warm feeling toward certain audigy2 cards whereas before they were frowned on and glared at ;-) thanks
[01:06] <delire> rab: what was the output when you ran the command?
[01:06] <rab> delire: :S what should i do
[01:06] <pppoe_dude> czer323, that will also not mount it at all tho
[01:07] <Topslakr> quick question. Doing a server install for a web server and I want to keep my webpages in the default directory but I want that on a seperate partition.. would the be /srv?
[01:07] <delire> rab: the grub-install command..
[01:07] <rab> delire: http://rafb.net/paste/results/fqX4SO94.html
[01:07] <rhyddin> crimsun_: oh, i see what u need .. one sev
[01:07] <rhyddin> one sec that is
[01:07] <oezguer> how is in ubuntu Control Alt Del ?
[01:07] <flo> Hi ! How do i install the kernel sources in ubuntu-server ?
[01:08] <Tobberoth> oezguer: Depends on what you want to do. Open terminal and write "ps aux" to see all running processes.
[01:08] <oezguer> i wanna close a program but i cant see it in my desktop  that why Control Alt Del in  Ubuntu
[01:08] <rbgCODE> oezguer use the kill command
[01:08] <jrib> oezguer: system > administration > system monitor
[01:08] <Tobberoth> then check the pid number and write "kill pid"
[01:08] <oezguer> Oh thanx Very Much
[01:08] <ompaul> oezguer, what is that program
[01:08] <delire> rab: can you paste your /boot/grub/menu/lst?
[01:08] <bryan__> i want to install limewire
[01:08] <oezguer> Camfrog chat prog.   ompaul:
[01:08] <zbowling> Dapper introduced issues with saa7134 video4linux cards with sound.. i believe its purely kernel config related but that knocks out a good quater of the V4L devices that work on Linux
[01:08] <delire> rab: can you paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[01:08] <rhyddin> crimsun_: OK, pasted .. that is a cool tool
[01:08] <ompaul> !limewire
[01:08] <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.
[01:08] <rab> delire: http://rafb.net/paste/results/K7iMwF42.html
[01:08] <bryan__> What then
[01:09] <delire> acidjedi: can you paste the output of 'fdisk -l' into a pastebin for me?
[01:09] <kbrooks> !java
[01:09] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[01:09] <siriusnova> dont use limewire
[01:09] <siriusnova> use frostwire
[01:09] <siriusnova> its free
[01:09] <zbowling> !saa7134
[01:09] <ubotu> zbowling: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:09] <zbowling> lol
[01:09] <bryan__> thanks
[01:09] <kbrooks> siriusnova: limewire used to be proprietary
[01:09] <ompaul> oezguer, if it starts with the command line camfrog, do this in a terminal: killall camfrog
[01:09] <czer323> pppoe_dude> oh, i just read that last comment... So, how are thumbdrives best used then?  I mean, i dont' want it asking me everytime at boot, but at the same time I want to use it when i plug it in.
[01:09] <felixruina> okay,now...anyone have a nice way of converting mp3s into ogg while retaining the metadata.  Normally I use SoundConverter for this, but for some reason it's not working for me in dapper
[01:09] <siriusnova> kbrooks - they are adding some funky drm in the next release
[01:09] <crimsun_> rhyddin: url?
[01:10] <oezguer> ompaul: thanx
[01:10] <Spy> wow you guys this xgl thingy is really great
[01:10] <Tommy2k4> tommy@tommy-linux:~$ umount //Emma/C
[01:10] <Tommy2k4> umount: it seems //Emma/C is mounted multiple times
[01:10] <Tommy2k4> :s
[01:10] <acidjedi> delire: root@Knoppix:/# fdisk -l
[01:10] <acidjedi> cannot open /proc/partitions
[01:10] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Oops .. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15713
[01:10] <delire> rab: are you sure Ubuntu is on a /dev/sda*? can you type 'mount' for me and paste that to a pastebin?
[01:10] <Protocol2> i got kicked from here saying im unregged
[01:10] <Protocol2> whats up with that?
[01:10] <pppoe_dude> czer323, you can mount it manually by typing mount /dev/sda /location_to_mount
[01:11] <delire> acidjedi: can you browse your Ubuntu partition from Knoppix? are you sure it's /dev/hda?
[01:11] <snooplsm> ndiswrapper-utils, how do I install these?? Don't see them in semantic and the website says the package is on the cd
[01:11] <Tommy2k4> why does it say //emma/c is mounted multiple times how can i unmount them
[01:11] <pppoe_dude> czer323, is it just the icon that is annoying you?
[01:11] <acidjedi> its /dev/hda1
[01:11] <acidjedi> I can browse it
[01:11] <bryan__> ok I am not very familiar with debian
[01:11] <bryan__> how do you use .deb files
[01:11] <czer323> nou, the part that annoys me is when I turn on the computer, without it being plugged in and it says that my harddrive is corrupt because it's missing the drive /dev/sda1
[01:11] <rab> delire: http://rafb.net/paste/results/QhRPq084.html
[01:11] <pppoe_dude> czer323, go to System>removable drives and media
[01:11] <czer323> and I have to type exit to get past the startup
[01:12] <delire> acid: from another terminal, type 'sudo fdisk -l' for me and paste it to a pastebin.
[01:12] <crimsun_> rhyddin: do you have a headphone jack?
[01:12] <pppoe_dude> czer323, you'll find more settings there
[01:12] <ompaul> Protocol2, that username is registered if you are its owner then identify yourself to the network /msg nickserver identify password
[01:12] <Tommy2k4> is there a way i can see a list of all mounts
[01:12] <geeksauce> jrib, it says i don't have right permissions to extract
[01:12] <crimsun_> rhyddin: (meaning, do you have a headphone jack that mutes external speakers when you plug in headphones)
[01:12] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Yeah
[01:12] <pppoe_dude> czer323, oh. best is to first comment out the sda line from fstab
[01:12] <kbrooks> siriusnova: bullshit
[01:12] <jani_> how can i load IEEE 1394? im trying to run kino but it says the IEEE 1394 subsystem is not loaded...
[01:12] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Yeah, that too
[01:12] <kbrooks> siriusnova: i'll believe it when i see it
[01:12] <crimsun_> rhyddin: ok. Try: amixer set 'Headphone Jack Sense' on
[01:12] <Protocol2> ompaul, why am I back in here
[01:12] <pppoe_dude> czer323, you can try that at least - havent had this problem before tho
[01:12] <czer323> pppoe_dude> There's nothing here that addresses my issue here.  Is there a way jsut to tell it to auto-mount later?
[01:13] <jrib> geeksauce: where are you extracting to?
[01:13] <ReWT_AxS> Hello all.
[01:13] <bryan__> ok what do I do with a .deb file
[01:13] <bimberi> !deb
[01:13] <acidjedi> delire:http://pastebin.com/709652
[01:13] <czer323> pppoe_dude> I'll comment it out and just try it then...  I'd imagine it'd still work.
[01:13] <pppoe_dude> czer323, try removing it from fstab thats all i can think of
[01:13] <kdingo> bryan__ open with gdebi?
[01:13] <geeksauce> subdir of home folder
[01:13] <bimberi> ubotu tell bryan__ about deb
[01:13] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Ok, got a small bit of output indicating that its on .. what should i do .. try some sound?
[01:13] <ompaul> unregged is directed to here unless we have a bot attack then we seperate them and allow you fall into the other one - we had bot problems a short while ago
[01:13] <delire> rab: i need to recap. Ubuntu is installed on /dev/sdb1, where and what is Windows on?
[01:13] <crimsun_> rhyddin: yes.
[01:14] <bryan__> gdebi?
[01:14] <jrib> geeksauce: what does 'ls -ld /path/to/folder' say?
[01:14] <kdingo> are you looking at a deb file in nautilus?
[01:14] <rhyddin> crimsun_: No, that didnt do it .. though the wav played through and brought me back to the cl
[01:14] <bryan__> gdebi command not found
[01:15] <bryan__> next?
[01:15] <delire> acidjedi: that's a good sign. give me a moment.
[01:15] <geeksauce> jrib, oops...i was trying to extract to a folder that was created using sudo.  but i'mm still getting errors...
[01:15] <crimsun_> rhyddin: ok, try: amixer set 'Headphone Jack Sense' off && amixer set 'External Amplifier' off
[01:15] <kdingo> oh. open terminal and try dpkg -i blah.deb
[01:15] <valehru> Anyone know a good gui to administrate purftpd?
[01:15] <snooplsm> is anyone using wifi w/ ubuntu?
[01:15] <kdingo> yes
[01:15] <kdingo> i am
[01:15] <snooplsm> 6.06/
[01:15] <jrib> geeksauce: what error?
[01:15] <kdingo> but it is a pita
[01:15] <snooplsm> kdingo, where do i start?
[01:15] <czer323> snooplsm> Yeah, get Networkmanager.  Huge lifesaver.
[01:16] <snooplsm> ok thanks
[01:16] <czer323> !networkmanager
[01:16] <bryan__> it woiks. Doing something
[01:16] <ubotu> methinks networkmanager is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkmanagerHowto
[01:16] <kdingo> snooplsm, depends what your wifi card is
[01:16] <rhyddin> crimsun_: that seems to have done the trick
[01:16] <snooplsm> belkin usb
[01:16] <czer323> model?
[01:16] <kdingo> snooplsm, ah i don't know, i haven't tried that..
[01:16] <loser> hi everybody
[01:16] <ppj1010> hi
[01:16] <snooplsm> F5D9050
[01:16] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Could u explain why that worked?
[01:16] <delire> acidjedi: so, let's start again with a fresh terminal. 'cd /mnt/hda1 ; sudo chroot /dev/hda1'
[01:16] <geeksauce> jrib, hmmm...i tried it again and now it worked.  i created a new folder and it worked fine.
[01:17] <Tommy2k4> how can i unmount something that i accidentally mounted twice? when i try it says it cant because its mounted more than once
[01:17] <jrib> geeksauce: k, the other one must have just had some funky permissions
[01:17] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Or perhaps point me to a wiki or some such on understanding what we just did?
[01:17] <kdingo> snooplsm, tried googling?
[01:17] <rab> delire:?
[01:17] <geeksauce> what is the command line command to delete a folder?
[01:17] <crimsun_> rhyddin: it's a quirk, really. Certain sound chipsets need 'External Amplifier' to be unmuted, others muted.
[01:17] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, make sure nothing is cded to it
[01:17] <kdingo> rm -fr folder
[01:17] <snooplsm> !Network Manager
[01:17] <ubotu> well, network manager is for Network Connectivity which "Just Works".  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager
[01:17] <userone> hey....is there anything I need to do to my system (other than back-up my files!!) before I upgrade to the new 6.06 LTS? Anyone have any major problems..I'm not very good with Linux!!
[01:17] <oezguer> ompaul:  is there a any popular video chat? like msn  for ubuntu?or microsoft netmeeting?
[01:17] <rhyddin> crimsun_: So how did the Ubuntu distro know to set it the way it did during install?
[01:18] <czer323> snooplsm> networkmanager is really just when it already is working, to easily connect to other networks
[01:18] <rab> delire: Ubuntu = /dev/sdb, Windows = /dev/sda
[01:18] <delire> rab: it seems windows is still on the primary partition of hard disk.
[01:18] <crimsun_> rhyddin: because we flipped a coin.
[01:18] <acidjedi> chroot: cannot change root directory to /dev/hda1: Not a directory
[01:18] <snooplsm> czer323, i need the ndiswrapper then
[01:18] <rhyddin> crimsun_: lol
[01:18] <acidjedi> Should I use /mnt/hda1 ?
[01:18] <czer323> snooplsm> More than likely.
[01:18] <Tommy2k4> cded?
[01:18] <delire> rab: ahah ;) so did you 'sudo grub-install /dev/sdb'?
[01:18] <crimsun_> rhyddin: no seriously, it's pretty easy to toggle a binary switch, but having it set one way will always alienate some portion of users
[01:18] <snooplsm> is it included w/ ub untu?
[01:18] <rab> yes
[01:18] <ompaul> oezguer, don't know don't use such a thing, that is why every new question should go to the channel that way anyone can answer if they know
[01:18] <snooplsm> where can I find it?
[01:18] <andreasdk> How can I see my .wmv files on Dapper
[01:19] <kdingo> snoops, ndiswrapper-utils is on the cd
[01:19] <delire> rab: right, well that all looks ok then. why not try a reboot? if it fails use the liveCD and i'll see you here.
[01:19] <snooplsm> kdingo, samantec won't find it right?
[01:19] <rab> delire: http://rafb.net/paste/results/jPtTsK55.html
[01:19] <jrib> andreasdk: I use mplayer with w32codecs
[01:19] <rhyddin> crimsun_: I see. Well, I appreciate you taking the time to help. I usually work this stuff out on my own as i've been through dozens of distros over the years, but this had me stumped.
[01:19] <rab> alright
[01:19] <delire> acidjedi: sure, give it a go.
[01:19] <oezguer> ok sorry
[01:19] <andreasdk> jrib: Any chance with totem?
[01:19] <DarkMageZ> !tell andreasdk about restricted
[01:19] <kdingo> actually i think synaptic will get it
[01:19] <acidjedi> ok, done
[01:19] <crimsun_> rhyddin: np. I handle sound for Ubuntu, generally.
[01:20] <jrib> andreasdk: totem-xine and either w32codecs ro libxine-extracodecs, not sure which one, the page you just got from ubotu should have the details
[01:20] <kdingo> if you ctrl+f search for ndiswrapper and mark ndiswrapper-utils for installation
[01:20] <kdingo> while the cd is in
[01:20] <delire> acidjedi: it has to be mounted. are you sure Ubuntu is mounted?
[01:20] <acidjedi> I can access the files
[01:20] <czer323> snooplsm> It's also in the synaptic package manager.  You could probably 'sudo apt-get ndiswrapper-utils' from a console.
[01:20] <rhyddin> crimsun_: Oh? Thats good to know. Coming from a slackware background I usually go straight to using modprobe or some such and dont mess with it after that. Neat to see though that there is someone in particular that handles sound in Ubuntu.
[01:20] <userone> hello...anyone have any major problems upgrading (not fresh install)?
[01:21] <delire> acidjedi: 'sudo chroot /mnt/hda1' should work.
[01:21] <andreasdk> Obutu???
[01:21] <acidjedi> that did
[01:21] <acidjedi> Done = that working, heh
[01:21] <crimsun_> rhyddin: it's not just me. I'm just the most visible. ;)
[01:21] <kasuko> Is there any fixes to the audio problems in Dapper?
[01:21] <crimsun_> kasuko: what sort?
[01:21] <czer323> !obutu
[01:21] <ubotu> czer323: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:21] <DarkMageZ> userone, some nvidia users have problems with the binary driver, and some odd people complain about no sound after upgrade :S
[01:21] <kdingo> i haven't encountered any audio probs
[01:21] <andreasdk> !obutu
[01:21] <czer323> !ubotu

[01:22] <Dreamglider> is there any hotkey for terminal ?
[01:22] <Tobberoth> Anyone here who can help me install amaroK 1.4 on normal Ubuntu? Seems to only be in the Kubuntu repositories
[01:22] <delire> acidjedi: cool. now try a 'grub-install /dev/hda' if that doesn't work i'm going to have to have a think.
[01:22] <jrib> andreasdk: you should have received a private message
[01:22] <crimsun_> kasuko: that's still much too vague for me to do anything useful.
[01:22] <acidjedi> /dev/hda: Not found or not a block device.
[01:22] <userone> darkmagez: thanks..I don't have an Nvidia card and and don't use sound that much..so I kmight try an upgrade now!
[01:23] <ompaul> andreasdk, your talking to a bot - your needing wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:23] <crimsun_> kasuko: I need ``tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat && amixer'' pastebinned
[01:23] <jani_> oezguer, try amsn or gyach-enhanced
[01:23] <RamiKassab> hey guys, how the heck do you get the Sun Java Runtime Environment installed? running 'sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin' says the package cannot be found?!
[01:23] <andreasdk> jrib: Ahh... I finally got it. Thanks guys, dolls and bots!
[01:23] <kasuko> crimsun_ where is the pastebin lol im in terminal right now
[01:23] <snooplsm> whats odd is its not showing up on my synaptec manager, nor is sudo apt-get ndiswrapper-utils working
[01:23] <kdingo> tobberoth: ianae but i guess amarok requires some of the kde libs., try apt-get install kde-core and then apt-get install amarok?
[01:23] <DarkMageZ> RamiKassab, you need to add the multiverse repository!
[01:23] <Dreamglider> is there any hotkey to bring up a  terminal ?
[01:23] <redblades> Hi, I downloaded the "Gartoon" theme, and I was wondering, how fo i implement it?
[01:23] <crimsun_> RamiKassab: you need multiverse enabled, and you need to use Synaptic to install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[01:23] <thoreauputic> !javadebs
[01:23] <ubotu> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
[01:23] <H080J03> umm when ubuntu frist boots up when it mounts the root file system what file is it reading to boot the file system?
[01:23] <kasuko> sorry found it
[01:24] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: I think I already have it enabled
[01:24] <redblades> I just installed Dapper yesterday and I'm very pleased
[01:24] <delire> acidjedi: gimme a moment
[01:24] <redblades> Dreamglider, set one if you want
[01:24] <RamiKassab> crimsun_: will sun-java5-jre enable me to build using ant also?
[01:24] <juanca7777> hello everyone, I want to get speedstep working a my T21, anyone can give me a hand?
[01:24] <DarkMageZ> RamiKassab, then "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin"
[01:24] <oezguer> jani_ : thanx i have also amsn.
[01:25] <Dreamglider> redblades, is there non by default? i dont have a mouse on that pc and need terminal
[01:25] <tristanmike> redblades: "sudo apt-get install gnome-icon-theme-gartoon"
[01:25] <kasuko> crimsun_: here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15715
[01:25] <oezguer> jani_ : can i im you?
[01:25] <edneymatias> good night! see ya!
[01:25] <crimsun_> RamiKassab: you probably need sun-java5-jdk then, but I don't know offhand
[01:25] <ompaul> juanca7777, what is a speedstep, and what is a T21 (guess a modem and some ibm)
[01:25] <userone> thanks..bye
[01:25] <redblades> Dreamglider, open a teminal, type gconf-editor
[01:25] <redblades> Dreamglider, Oh
[01:26] <redblades> tristanmike, thanks
[01:26] <juanca7777> ompaul: steepstep is for cpu scaling, T21 thinkpad T21
[01:26] <delire> acidjedi: i think we're going to have to use the Ubuntu rescue CD. choose 'rescue' at the Grub menu and when you get to a prompt, log in and type 'sudo grub-install /dev/hda'
[01:26] <crimsun_> kasuko: well that's uninformative. ``asoundconf list && cat /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc*''
[01:26] <H080J03> umm when ubuntu frist boots up when it mounts the root file system what file is it reading to boot the file system?
[01:26] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: how do I check to make sure multiverse is enabled?
[01:26] <delire> acidjedi: i really don't know why it's not finding the device.. sorry :/
[01:26] <loser> |night everybody
[01:26] <kasuko> its 2 lines should I paste bin it?
[01:26] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: can't I enable it in synaptic?
[01:27] <kasuko> Names of available sound cards:
[01:27] <kasuko> ICH5
[01:27] <DarkMageZ> RamiKassab, yeah, it can be enabled in synaptic, also, u could pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:27] <acidjedi> shit, I g2g, thanks for the help mate
[01:27] <ktogias> H080J03, What do you mean "boot the file system"??
[01:27] <rivimont> anyone know how to restart the sound server?
[01:27] <juanca7777> when I do a sudo modprobe speedstep-smi it tells me there's not such device
[01:27] <H080J03> when it says it is mounting the root file system
[01:27] <redblades> tristanmike, I did that, but I can
[01:27] <redblades> 't change it to that
[01:27] <ompaul> juanca7777, please check this out, it is native to ubuntu cpudyn - CPU dynamic frequency control for processors with scaling
[01:27] <H080J03> i know its a file with just a bunch of mount commands in it
[01:28] <thoreauputic> H080J03: it reads from th initramfs then pivots root to the real / if I remember correctly
[01:28] <ktogias> H080J03, you mean /etc/fstab ???
[01:28] <H080J03> cuz it just hangs when it says mounting root file system, cuz i changed up my hard drives
[01:28] <H080J03> yea fstab
[01:28] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: there are two entries in synaptic that say multiverse but they both say Non-Free (multiverse), what do they mean by Non-Free?
[01:28] <H080J03> thank
[01:28] <Dreamglider> how can i bring up a terminal with the keyboard ?
[01:28] <ompaul> juanca7777, it requires that you have the universe repos installed
[01:28] <crimsun_> kasuko: pastebin, please
[01:28] <SinnerG> I think for example 'sun java' ?
[01:28] <thoreauputic> RamiKassab: non-free as in Freedom ( patent restricted and such)
[01:29] <juanca7777> ompaul: cool :)
[01:29] <DarkMageZ> RamiKassab, all multiverse is non-free, what they mean is that the sourcecode is not available, and it has a really restrictive licence
[01:29] <kasuko> sorry meant to
[01:29] <juanca7777> ompaul: checking it out right away
[01:29] <kasuko> didnt copy the url though
[01:29] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: oic so that's why java would be there :)
[01:29] <DarkMageZ> RamiKassab, but it doesn't mean free as in cost :P
[01:29] <zxc333> After coming close to unistalling Ubuntu last night ...I got my Winmodem modem working and I LOVE UBUNTU
[01:29] <kasuko> crimsun_: what do I have to run again I acidentally restartedf my x server
[01:30] <crimsun_> kasuko: well that's uninformative. ``asoundconf list && cat /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc*''
[01:30] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: :)
[01:30] <bimberi> Dreamglider: set up a keyboard shortcut via System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts.  Otherwise <ALT>F2, gnome-terminal
[01:30] <H080J03> ok
[01:30] <juanca7777> ompaul: humm I got a big problem : powernowd and ubuntu-desktop has to be removed in order to install cpudyn
[01:30] <kasuko> crimsun_: here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15721
[01:31] <oezguer> jani_ : are u there? how can i install gyach in terminal?  sudo apt-get gyach  so?
[01:31] <H080J03> fstab didn't help my problem, since i have erased my old linux install on hdb my drapper wont boot
[01:31] <odin> how the heck do I switch my default streaming video program in firefox from mplayer to totem-gstreamer-mozilla?
[01:31] <Tommy2k4> is it possible to mount an smb:// url
[01:31] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``lsmod''
[01:31] <ompaul> juanca7777, so most likely you don't want it, ubuntu-desktop is a meta package resinstall it before you upgrade its rather useful as for the other that is your call
[01:31] <H080J03> it tries to mount the root file system and hangs
[01:31] <acetech> how can i kill an x session in ubuntu?
[01:31] <Tommy2k4> ctrl alt backspace?
[01:31] <jani_> oezguer, you should download gyach-enhanced (rpm or source) then installed it by hand
[01:31] <juanca7777> Tommy2k4: yes, but only if not not in a active directory
[01:32] <RamiKassab> DarkMageZ: so if I am trying to compile using ant then I want to install 3 packages right? sun-java5-jre, sun-java5-jdk, and sun-java5-plugin?
[01:32] <odin> I mean totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin
[01:32] <userone> does anyone know how to backup my evolution emails before I upgrade..or is that not necessary?
[01:32] <acetech> Tommy2k4, thanks
[01:32] <crimsun_> RamiKassab: no, you probably only need sun-java5-jdk
[01:32] <oezguer> jani_ : thanx
[01:32] <Dreamglider> is there no way to bring up the application meny with the keyboard ?
[01:32] <kasuko> crimsun_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15722
[01:32] <bimberi> Tommy2k4: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[01:32] <jani_> oezguer, http://www.phrozensmoke.com/projects/pyvoicechat/
[01:32] <Tommy2k4> how do i do it because sudo mount says "cant get address for smb"
[01:32] <RamiKassab> crimsun_: oh, I don't need the plugin?
[01:32] <RamiKassab> for firefox
[01:32] <thoreauputic> Dreamglider: alt-F1 in gnome
[01:33] <RamiKassab> ok I enabled the damn multiverse in synaptic but it still can't find the package, what the heck is wrong here
[01:33] <jani_> oezguer, download the rpm package then convert it to deb using alien
[01:33] <juanca7777> Tommy2k4: omit the smb: part
[01:33] <juanca7777> use just the //server/share syntax
[01:33] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``lspci -{n,}v''
[01:33] <thoreauputic> RamiKassab: doid you update your package list ?
[01:33] <H080J03> hollowlife1987 how can i fix my problem
[01:33] <thoreauputic> RamiKassab: apt-get update or synaptic equivalent ( reload? )
[01:33] <juanca7777> ompaul: I don't get you, should I install cpudyn or not?
[01:33] <zxc333> Hmm...is Automatix or Easy Ubuntu better?
[01:34] <hollowlife1987> i dont even know what your problem  is
[01:34] <kdingo> h080j03, reinstall the boot loader?
[01:34] <userone> does anyone know how to backup my evolution emails before I upgrade..or is that not necessary?
[01:34] <Tommy2k4> btw i meant to a specific directory eg //server/share/subdirectory
[01:34] <RamiKassab> thoreauputic: yeah synaptic did it automatically when I enabled multiverse I believe
[01:34] <hollowlife1987> dont just go around asking random people
[01:34] <void^> !automatix
[01:34] <H080J03> its not the boot loader
[01:34] <H080J03> grub works
[01:34] <kdingo> i dunno then
[01:34] <void^> oh.. no public bot answers anymore :(
[01:34] <cstrippie> zxc - Automatix does more, but easyubuntu will load ati drivers and automatix won't
[01:34] <hollowlife1987> whats the problem?
[01:34] <H080J03> it just hangs every time it trys to mount the root file system
[01:34] <crimsun_> RamiKassab: you need -plugin if you plan to use the firefox plugin, yes.
[01:34] <kasuko> crimsun_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15723
[01:34] <zxc333> What I was really wondering if I could use both back to back?
[01:35] <H080J03> i thought it was trying to mount somethig that wasn't there
[01:35] <RamiKassab> thoreauputic: wow, I just did a manual apt-get update now and I still can't install 'sun-java5-jdk'
[01:35] <zxc333> Since I noticed the ATI driver thing
[01:35] <bimberi> RamiKassab: what architecture? i386?
[01:35] <H080J03> but i checked
[01:35] <RamiKassab> yep
[01:35] <H080J03> lol
[01:35] <RamiKassab> bimberi: yeah
[01:35] <H080J03> no i didn't check
[01:35] <H080J03> hold on
[01:35] <cstrippie> zxc - both will allow you to select or deselect packages - I used automatix for most, then had easyubuntu load only ati drivers
[01:35] <Tommy2k4> i have a serious complaint about ubuntu
[01:35] <Tommy2k4> why doesnt it turn on num lock when i boot up?!
[01:35] <H080J03> i forgot i check the fstab on the livecd
[01:35] <boolka> hi, ive just installed xubuntu on my laptop,  but im having trouble with my wireless connection, its an intel 2200 B/G, it can see the  AP, when I choose mine, click connect...  i get a pop up window that says " activatin eth1 ( wireless)
[01:35] <boolka> and it dont connect
[01:35] <delire> zxc333: personally i'd choose Easy Ubuntu, but a couple here seem to say Automatix is safe now.
[01:36] <thoreauputic> RamiKassab: then your sources.list is probably wrong - assuming you are using 6.06 (dapper)
[01:36] <RamiKassab> yep
[01:36] <RamiKassab> here let me paste what I have in sources.list
[01:36] <delire> boolka: do you have an excryption key? do you use 'restricted mode' to access it normally?
[01:36] <DarkMageZ> Tommy2k4, some people don't like numlock enabled by default, there is bound to be a way to fix that tho
[01:36] <zxc333> Haven't got much to lose since it's pretty much a fresh install so I'll do cstrippie way
[01:36] <userone> anybody? does anyone know how to backup my evolution emails before I upgrade..or is that not necessary?
[01:36] <bimberi> RamiKassab: use the pastebin :)

[01:36] <Tommy2k4> does ubuntu have a default browser type thing
[01:37] <bimberi> !paste
[01:37] <Tommy2k4> i want links to open in opera
[01:37] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel! Use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for pasting long texts as it does not distrupt the channel. You might also want to install the "webboard" package from Universe.
[01:37] <bimberi> RamiKassab: ^^^^^^^
[01:37] <RamiKassab> thanks
[01:37] <boolka> delire yes i put the correct password in the property menue, but it still wont connect :(  .... wired connection works fine, and i deactivated it whne trying wireless..
[01:37] <RamiKassab> !paste
[01:37] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, you can do that - system preferences preferred applications
[01:38] <delire> boolka: try toggling restricted mode if there's an option. also try 'sudo ifdown eth1; sudo ifup eth1'
[01:38] <andreasdk> How do I set the PC to defrag every 30th shut-down?
[01:38] <Fee^_> what is the best method to go .avi -> dvd
[01:38] <bimberi> RamiKassab: Open http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org in a web browser and paste the contents in there.  Then tell us the url.
[01:38] <Fee^_> without Wine :)
[01:38] <kasuko> crimsun_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15723
[01:38] <crimsun_> kasuko: how new is this motherboard?
[01:38] <H080J03> k i think i sloved my problem
[01:38] <DarkMageZ> andreasdk, ext3 & reiserfs don't need defragging :)
[01:38] <boolka> delire, whats toggling?
[01:38] <H080J03> bye
[01:38] <delire> andreasdk: man tune2fs. i think it's the -C option
[01:38] <delire> boolka: 'switching' (sorry)
[01:38] <stevekl> Incase anyone cares, and I know you don't, my font problem came from the fact that gnome thought I was running at 96 dpi and X was running in 75 dpi. I told gnome to run at 75dpi and it's all gravy now.
[01:39] <RamiKassab> bimberi: thanks, ok here's the url: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15725
[01:39] <kasuko> crimsun_: Not new at all its an intel D865GBF
[01:40] <odin> how the heck do I put a plugin on firefox?  apt-get installing it doesn't seem to be enough
[01:40] <delire> boolka: any luck after a 'sudo ifdown eth1; sudo ifup eth1' in the terminal? this will help diagnose.
[01:41] <userone> which channel for the newbie questions? I just want to know how to back up my evolution emails?
[01:41] <sheitan> yo les gens
[01:41] <sheitan> kk1 peut-il m'aider ??
[01:41] <delire> userone: good question, re backing up mail. i don't know whether it's automatic.
[01:41] <ompaul> !fr
[01:41] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:41] <Tommy2k4> i cant find where to set preferred applications :(
[01:42] <RamiKassab> bimberi: see anything weird?
[01:42] <SAM_theman> Yo Hommie Gees!!
[01:42] <delire> userone: i would back them up manually regardless. you might want to ask in #evolution to be sure (if that channel still exists).
[01:42] <boolka> delire what am i looking for when doing the  ifup/ifdown
[01:42] <SurfnKid> anyone know a manual for airsnort
[01:42] <delire> boolka: errors. any output with "failed" or similar?
[01:42] <userone> delire: thanks...i'll try it
[01:42] <SurfnKid> other than 'man airsnort'
[01:42] <corhere> gnome-power-manager does not turn off my monitor! how do I get DPMS to work?
[01:42] <delire> SurfnKid: the website has good documentation AFAIK.
[01:43] <kasuko> crimsun_: ? is it that my motherboard is too old :(
[01:43] <DewDude> Apache2 splits it's config up in several files..and i in theory know how to make vhosts work using the sites-enabled/sites-available...but..i can't get it working right. I've got a vhost made, but for some reason it's applying those settings
[01:43] <ompaul> SurfnKid, that question and help for that kind of thing do no happen here
[01:43] <DewDude> to every host..can i put them all in httpd.conf?
[01:43] <Tommy2k4> whats qt
[01:43] <DewDude> or is there some way to make it work with webmin?
[01:43] <crimsun_> kasuko: no, it seems to be supported just fine, but you have no mixer elements, which is odd.
[01:43] <SurfnKid> ompaul good point
[01:43] <SurfnKid> delire thanks
[01:43] <zxc333> Anyone know where I can get Easy Ubuntu...the link in the pinned topic doesn't work (the Download link)
[01:43] <userone> #evolution
[01:43] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``ls -l /dev/snd* /dev/dsp*''

[01:44] <delire> boolka: right, something's up with your key.
[01:44] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, programming language released by a company called troll tech
[01:44] <delire> boolka: do you know your WPA key?
[01:44] <boolka> yes
[01:44] <delire> boolka: actually, is it WPA or WEP?
[01:44] <SurfnKid> delire sorry was that the airsnort website

[01:44] <boolka> AES  acutaly i belive
[01:44] <DewDude> umm..if he's using wifi..it wouldn't show up as eth1..it'd show up as wlan0
[01:45] <RamiKassab> bimberi: ah I found the problem
[01:45] <Tommy2k4> i think ill start to like ubuntu :)
[01:45] <snooplsm> how does one spoof the mac address of a usb device?
[01:45] <corhere> DewDude: my centrino 2200 wireless card shows up as eth1
[01:45] <ompaul> SurfnKid, you were asked to stop that conversation, please do
[01:45] <DewDude> corhere, bizarre.
[01:45] <kdingo> DewDude, i've had mine show up as eth1 and wlan0
[01:45] <ramonsa> question: I want to upgrade to dapper from currently installed breezy. Is there any advantage of doing a clean install? I would like to add +2 new hd drives to implement software RAID.
[01:45] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``cat /var/log/dmesg''
[01:45] <DewDude> i've only had mine show up as wlan0
[01:45] <Pistache`> anyone knows how to associate the FN touch with brightness on laptops ?
[01:45] <geeksauce> can someone help me compile a program?
[01:45] <SurfnKid> delire i found it nevermind
[01:45] <boolka> delire, WPA Pre-Shared Key, WPA Algorithm : AES
[01:45] <delire> boolka: can you 'sudo iwconfig' for me? don't paste the output here, but let's find out what your wireless card name is.
[01:46] <Spy> hey, how can i set the permissions of a folder?
[01:46] <jrib> Spy: chmod
[01:46] <delire> boolka: right.. do you know if your card is 'eth1' or 'wlan0' etc?
[01:46] <DewDude> yes... chmod.
[01:46] <Spy> okay and then what is the code for like me the local user
[01:46] <corhere> does anybody have trouble getting DPMS working with gnome-power-manager or am I alone with this problem?
[01:46] <boolka> delire, eth1
[01:46] <coldasfireheart0> hello
[01:46] <kasuko> crimsun_: whew thats a long one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15727
[01:47] <delire> Spy: 'chmod u+rw file' would give the user read and write access to the file
[01:47] <DewDude> well, are you trying to protect your own folder?
[01:47] <delire> boolka: ok.
[01:47] <boolka> delire, its a Intell  2200 B/G  ... its a laptop built in
[01:47] <delire> boolka: i have the same card
[01:47] <Cornellius> Why can't I play midis and why have I no midi mappers ?
[01:47] <coldasfireheart0> i'm having a flash player problemo, is anybody kind enough to help this poor little newb?
[01:48] <boolka> great
[01:48] <jrib> coldasfireheart0: maybe, what's the problem?
[01:48] <Spy> okay delire and if it is a folder would i just say chmod u+rw folder/
[01:48] <H080J03> k
[01:48] <DewDude> coldasfireheart0, if it's about non working flash..there is no Flash8 player for linux.
[01:48] <delire> boolka: what kind of key is it? i string or a HEX code?
[01:48] <H080J03> i i didn't slove my problem
[01:49] <boolka> string
[01:49] <delire> boolka: eg is your key a word or set of words?
[01:49] <acetech> does anybody know where in ubuntu you can pass optioin to kernel modules?
[01:49] <boolka> err
[01:49] <delire> boolka: cool.
[01:49] <boolka> word i guess
[01:49] <kasuko> crimsun_: dont want to seem like im rushing you and I know that was a lot to read but want to make sure you saw it ... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15727
[01:49] <boolka> letters and numbers
[01:49] <ompaul> acetech, press escape as the grup meu comes up and you should be able to navigate your way from there
[01:49] <delire> boolka: ok, try 'sudo iwconfig eth1 <essid> key s:<key>'
[01:49] <crimsun_> kasuko: yes, I read it.
[01:49] <delire> boolka: where <essid> is your ESSID and <key> is your key string
[01:50] <Yoosah> so what do i do when a process like lsusb hangs, i kill the terminal and it still shows up in ps
[01:50] <kasuko> crimsun_: most of it must not have been important then
[01:50] <acetech> ompaul, i am not sure where this would be
[01:50] <H080J03> every time i try and boot ubuntu it just hangs when it says mounting root file system
[01:50] <acetech> ompaul, i am trying to pass the following opetion "options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1 NVreg_ReqAGPRate=8"
[01:51] <Yoosah> are there other ways beside 'kill' to stop a certain process?
[01:51] <corhere> Yoosah, in my experience when lsusb hangs, the system becomes unstable, so you might want to watch out
[01:51] <coldasfireheart0> is not about the player 8
[01:51] <H080J03> how would i fix this?
[01:51] <Yoosah> boo i better reboot then :[
[01:51] <corhere> and you can try kill -9 <process>
[01:51] <acetech> would it be in /etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf?
[01:51] <delire> boolka: what happened when you typed this?
[01:51] <Yoosah> corhere: did that, plenty times to no avail
[01:51] <coldasfireheart0> the letters don't show up in a flash application
[01:51] <delire> boolka: (this is all diagnostic btw)
[01:51] <nickpresta> Would anyone care to have a small talk with me about being a package maintainer?
[01:52] <boolka> delire,  unrecognised wirless request "<ESSID>"
[01:52] <Yoosah> this webcam is giving me headaches..
[01:52] <boolka> ESSID is the name of my router that its broadcasting?
[01:52] <crimsun_> kasuko: I'm helping quite a few people simultaneously, so please be patient.
[01:52] <ompaul> acetech, I can only hand you the line which is obvious from where I suggested as for the values you are looking to use I know nothing of them, and I wonder would they need an nvidia kernel - I don't know but thought you should check it out
[01:52] <delire> boolka: yes you need to substitute that with the ESSID of your setup there.
[01:52] <boolka> yep
[01:52] <boolka> i did that
[01:52] <delire> boolka: the same with <key>
[01:53] <boolka> and it gave me that error
[01:53] <acetech> ompaul, i am sure the options are correct... i just dont know where to put them
[01:53] <H080J03> so what can i do to make it mount the root file system?
[01:53] <kasuko> crimsun_: ya as long as you tell me when you give up on me
[01:53] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``sudo modprobe -r snd_intel8x0 && sudo modprobe snd_intel8x0 ac97_quirk=ad_sharing''
[01:53] <] GoldenDragon> where is Firefox's plugin database usually stored on the computer?
[01:53] <delire> boolka: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid <ESSID> key s:<key>
[01:53] <RamiKassab> hey is sun-java5 the newest java?
[01:53] <ompaul> acetech, press the escape key as grub is on the screen and you will be able to add arguements to pass to the kernel
[01:54] <Tommy2k4> firefox
[01:54] <] GoldenDragon> huh? O_o
[01:54] <RamiKassab> when I went to verify the install through their website it siad that my version is outdated
[01:54] <corhere> RamiKassab, last I checked, 5.0 is the latest sun java
[01:54] <boolka> delire, so  essid twice?
[01:54] <RamiKassab> corhere: hmm, I installed the jdk
[01:54] <acetech> ompaul, alright... i see what your saying now
[01:54] <kasuko> crimsun_: here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15729
[01:54] <acetech> ompaul, thank you
[01:54] <snooplsm> shit i got a seg fault while editing my mac addy
[01:54] <corhere> RamiKassab, you want the jre
[01:54] <RamiKassab> corhere: their website seems to think I have 1.5.0_06
[01:54] <H080J03> /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
[01:54] <ompaul> snooplsm, please mind the language
[01:54] <RamiKassab> corhere: well the jdk installed the JRE also
[01:54] <] GoldenDragon> where is Firefox's plugin database usually stored on the computer?
[01:55] <H080J03> /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
[01:55] <H080J03> i told you
[01:55] <] GoldenDragon> oh thanks
[01:55] <H080J03> k
[01:55] <RamiKassab> corhere: I need the JDK to build apps with ant
[01:55] <] GoldenDragon> sorry, didnt see it xD
[01:55] <Tommy2k4> the opera tray icon doesnt have a transparent background, is that because i used static instead of shared?
[01:55] <snooplsm> ompaul, young children reading?
[01:55] <delire> boolka: yes just like in that command.. i might have ommitted it before.
[01:55] <corhere> RamiKassab, its Java 5.0 version 1.5 update 06 or something
[01:55] <ompaul> snooplsm, we would like to think it possible
[01:55] <Larsson-Sweden> How to set the clock?
[01:55] <darkgamer20> how can i acces the shared folders on my windows machine through ubuntu?
[01:55] <corhere> even i'm confused by the sun java versioning
[01:55] <crimsun_> kasuko: I think you typoed the command I gave you
[01:55] <boolka> delire, still same error
[01:55] <H080J03> soo any one know how to make the root file system mount when the system is booting up?
[01:55] <crimsun_> kasuko: that entire command is one unbroken line
[01:55] <RamiKassab> corhere: hmm, ok I trust that it's up-to-date, thanks brother
[01:56] <H080J03> cuz mine it just hangs
[01:56] <snooplsm> can i do ifconfig
[01:56] <kasuko> crimsun_: ok
[01:56] <snooplsm> ordo i need to do sudo ifconfig
[01:56] <delire> boolka: no idea then. i have the same card and it does support setting the essid.
[01:56] <coldasfireheart0> i have installed flash player 7 plugins for firefox, also in opera, in firefox it doesn't work right, in opera doesn't work at all and in konqueror it can't find the plug in
[01:56] <coldasfireheart0> any ideas?
[01:56] <H080J03> yea
[01:56] <ompaul> H080J03, have a look at wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions and enjoy some trial and terror ;-)
[01:56] <crimsun_> coldasfireheart0: how did you install the plugin?
[01:56] <Muzik_> hey all, i just have a quick question: i have a laptop with Ubuntu 6.06 on it ... every time i close the lid it 'locks' my screen.  How do i disable this?
[01:57] <H080J03> yea i can help with flash player install
[01:57] <H080J03> are you running the script they gave you?
[01:57] <corhere> Muzik_ there's a setting in gnome-power-manager for that i believe
[01:57] <delire> boolka: for instance, instead of using the gui to use my access point called "myPlace" with key "goodLuck" i would 'sudo iwconfig eth1 essid myPlace key s:goAway'
[01:57] <coldasfireheart0> crimsum: first i did with the instructions online, then i copied the lib files myself
[01:57] <crimsun_> coldasfireheart0: if you used apt-get or aptitude, then ``sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree''. Then use Synaptic to reinstall flashplugin-nonfree
[01:57] <boolka> oh
[01:57] <coldasfireheart0> alright i'll try that thanks
[01:58] <boolka> then i think i got the command wrong
[01:58] <Beforewisdom> Hi.  I'm on dapper.  What is the most sensible way to install the java COMPILER, javac, dapper already seems to have the runtime environment
[01:58] <delire> boolka: i think you should just try to use the gui and make sure you're not using a string type key in the hex field and vice versa.
[01:58] <kasuko> crimsum_: I got a pop up window at the corner
[01:58] <delire> boolka: anyway, once done, 'sudo ifup eth1' and see how you go.
[01:58] <H080J03> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Linux&P3_Browser_Version=Netscape4
[01:58] <tuxta2> Hi all, I want to run Dapper live from a usb hard drive, anyone know where I can find instructions?
[01:58] <H080J03> use that script to install flash player
[01:58] <delire> boolka: i have to go. good luck.
[01:58] <boolka>  say my  router name is   bob and password is  pas,   i would do  "   sudo iwconfig eht1 essid bob key: pas
[01:58] <boolka> ?
[01:58] <H080J03> and install it to usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/
[01:58] <H080J03> k
[01:59] <corhere> boolka it's key s:pass
[01:59] <nickpresta> AFAIK, Linux only supports Flash 7 and we're going to have to wait for Flash 8.5. YouTube and GoogleVideo both use Flash 8...
[01:59] <corhere> the s: tells iwconfig it's a string key
[01:59] <delire_kino> boolka: close (typo) 'sudo iwconfig eth1 essid bob key s:pas'
[01:59] <H080J03> hmm
[01:59] <crimsun_> kasuko: ``amixer''
[01:59] <jrib> nickpresta: is the use of flash8 fairly recent because I have seen videos on both those sites?
[01:59] <delire_kino> boolka: anyway, i have to run.. g'luck!
[01:59] <boolka> delire_kino it gave no erorr
[01:59] <H080J03> so like how long does a ubuntu lamp server take to install?
[02:00] <delire_kino> boolka: try an sudo ifup eth1
[02:00] <boolka> thanks
[02:00] <delire_kino> np
[02:00] <nickpresta> Well, about a week/2 weeks ago I wasn't able to view Flash on YT or GV and I have a picture of my Mozilla plugins installed if you want it to verify I have the needed plugins and such
[02:00] <kasuko> crimsun_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15730
[02:00] <boolka> it says its already configured
[02:00] <duarte> I guys... I was wondering if you could help me.... I have instaled Ubunto 6.06 and after installing it i also installed the kubuntu. This changed my boot apperance as well as my login page... But I would like that to remain the same.... How can I revert to the original look?
[02:00] <coldasfireheart0> H080J03: i'll try that too
[02:00] <Tommy2k4> is there a command to append a line to the end of a file
[02:00] <andreasdk> How can i see which packages the upgrade command will affect?
[02:00] <Healot> !flash
[02:00] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:00] <delire_kino> boolka: 'sudo ifdown eth1; sudo ifup eth1'
[02:01] <H080J03> also rember it is flash player 7, and antialised fonts don't show up in flash player cuz that is flash 8 only
[02:01] <Muzik_> corhere: there are two gnome-power things.. manager and preferences... manager refuses to start (says dbus isnt running, but /etc/init.d/ says it is)... and preferences  it seems it is already set to 'blank screen' ... and changing it to "do nothing" still causes it to lock
[02:01] <delire_kino> boolka: ifup eth1 means "bring the interface eth1 up"
[02:01] <coldasfireheart0> alright
[02:01] <boolka> oh ok
[02:01] <H080J03> and flash 8 handles xml differntly so sometimes flash 7 wont display xml data
[02:02] <corhere> Musik_, i can't really help you there, sorry. I think i remember reading about this problem on google. You can try there.
[02:02] <Muzik_> corhere: oop sorry that says dbus session service
[02:02] <Muzik_> ok thankies :)
[02:02] <coldasfireheart0> yeah, i was just tryin to get to flash settings, and it was flash 7 which i had intalled but no even the fonts from the settings would show up
[02:02] <boolka> delire_kino, if you still here.... game the same response as last itme
[02:02] <nickpresta> I don't doubt the ability to use Flash in Linux, I'm just saying that until Macromedia comes out with Flash 8.5 (which is being released to Linux because of the short time between 8 and 8.5, they dont want to have to do both), Linux cannot view files requiring flash 8
[02:03] <crimsun_> kasuko: ok, then you'll have to use the oss/free driver.
[02:03] <delire_kino> boolka: then your key is probably not a string. ask someone here how to use a hex type key with iwconfig. i have to split ;) nite
[02:03] <boolka> delire_kino, thanks alot
[02:03] <boolka> good night
[02:03] <ramonsa> question: I want to upgrade to dapper from currently installed breezy. Is there any advantage of doing a clean install?
[02:03] <Healot> nickpresta: urge Adobe to release Flash 8 for Linux pronto
[02:03] <crimsun_> kasuko: sudo modprobe -r snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec && sudo modprobe i810_audio
[02:04] <nickpresta> @Healot - they already said that in the time it would take them to make Flash 8 available for Linux, they could have Flash 8.5 done and it would cover Linux for longer
[02:04] <nickpresta> IIRC, Flash 8.5 should be released soon
[02:04] <apokryphos> for Linux?
[02:04] <corhere> boolka: in your key, are any of the characters anything other than the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F?
[02:04] <kasuko> crimsun_: Nothing returned
[02:04] <nickpresta> yeah
[02:04] <crimsun_> kasuko: good.
[02:04] <apokryphos> they just said they'll release flash 9 for Linux...
[02:04] <kasuko> crimsun_: thought so
[02:04] <Rug> Howdy all
[02:04] <backz> Hi! I've problems with apt-get update. It returns unknow error on gpgv!
[02:04] <crimsun_> kasuko: the good news is I've a patch in my git tree that should fix up your sound issue.
[02:05] <crimsun_> kasuko: it won't make it into the next kernel update, but it will be in the one after that
[02:05] <Muzik_> boolka: if your key isnt a string (if its hex), its the same command only it is key 0xyourkey (so if your key is aaa111bbb2 then you say key 0xaaa111bbb2
[02:05] <carlos74> hello
[02:05] <kasuko> crimsun_: that means?
[02:05] <kaizoku> hello
[02:05] <Healot> backz: describe/tell us the exact error message/number
[02:05] <nickpresta> http://weblogs.macromedia.com/emmy/archives/2005/12/why_isnt_there.cfm
[02:06] <nickpresta> about Flash 8.5
[02:06] <kaizoku> does anyone know how to install the ssh daemon?
[02:06] <crimsun_> kasuko: that means your issue is known, has been fixed, and is awaiting a kernel compilation (a couple weeks)
[02:06] <kaizoku> I can't seem to figure out where it is?
[02:06] <Kyral> kaizoku: install openssh-server
[02:06] <MrBrizzio> kaizoku, sudo apt-get install ssh
[02:06] <MrBrizzio> that works too ;)
[02:06] <kasuko> crimsun_: so I have to go a couple weeks soundless
[02:06] <kaizoku> ah, ok thanks
[02:06] <bimberi> RamiKassab: sorry, i got called away, are you sorted? your sources.list only has multiverse enabled for backports
[02:07] <Rug> Is there a Firefox extension/skin/config hack that will give me a delete button next to the URL bar? (identical to what Konqueror has)
[02:07] <nickpresta> @Rug, not that I know of although you could search the Addons site at Mozilla
[02:07] <corhere> In gnome-power-manager, i have it set to put the display to sleep after 30 mins but it just blanks the screen. How do I get it to put the screen to sleep (DPMS)?
[02:08] <Rug> nickpresta: yeah I have, no dice
[02:08] <RamiKassab> bimberi: yeah I got it, I didn't realize that you had to enable it for each one
[02:08] <RamiKassab> bimberi: sorry, I'm somewhat new to this
[02:08] <backz> Healot, it returns: W: GPG error: http://br.archive.ubuntu.com dapper Release: Unknow error running gpgv
[02:09] <kasuko> crimsun_: so if I just go a couple of weeks without sound it will get fixed automatially
[02:09] <darkgamer20> I tried to access my windows shares from my ubuntu computer with Places -> Network Servers but it says access is denied is there any reason why that is? yea im sure i made the shares avaliable to the network
[02:09] <crimsun_> kasuko: no, you don't have to go soundless. In the meantime, use the oss/free driver.
[02:09] <crimsun_> kasuko: (which you have loaded)
[02:09] <bimberi> RamiKassab: no apologies necessary, enjoy the learning :)
[02:09] <kasuko> crimsun_: oh ok do I have to restart for it to work?
[02:09] <crimsun_> kasuko: no
[02:09] <RamiKassab> bimberi: thanks, your help was much appreciated!
[02:09] <coldasfireheart0> guys it worked, i am so friggin happy, love you al
[02:09] <coldasfireheart0> l
[02:10] <crimsun_> kasuko: just configure apps to use oss instead of alsa in the meantime
[02:10] <nickpresta> Is anyone here a package maintainer?
[02:10] <Kyral> of?
[02:10] <Kyral> I maintain two...
[02:10] <] GoldenDragon> hmm can someone help me configure Shockwave for Firefox via mozplugger?
[02:10] <coldasfireheart0> crimsun_: Thanks
[02:10] <crimsun_> nickpresta: many of us are.
[02:10] <lampshade> yeah what's with somethings needing alsa/only working with alsa and something only working with OSS, etc.  Wth?  Like flash I couldn't get to have sound until I installed alsaoss and shit like that
[02:11] <] GoldenDragon> I've been trying for a while....
[02:11] <] GoldenDragon> I installed firefox for windows through wine... installed flash.... and then ran the commands on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Shockwave?highlight=%28shockwave%29
[02:11] <] GoldenDragon> I think my problem is i'm not reading the 2nd to last set of commands correctly.... the one before we remove the pluginreg.dat
[02:12] <nickpresta> Well, I want to package up-to-date versions of Apache and PHP since I am into Web Development and there is no reason I can't use Apache 2.2.2 and PHP 5.1.4
[02:12] <] GoldenDragon> sorry, i mean.. installed shockwave.
[02:12] <RamiKassab> bimberi: here's a question, how do I change the path to the new java install?
[02:12] <nickpresta> But of course, I am curious about the amount of time and effort that goes into maintaining packages..
[02:12] <bimberi> ] GoldenDragon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Shockwave
[02:12] <Kyral> why isn't those two in Sid yet anyway...
[02:12] <Kyral> aren't even
[02:12] <] GoldenDragon> yeah, i've been there...
[02:12] <bimberi> RamiKassab: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[02:13] <bimberi> ] GoldenDragon: ah, kk, that's the extent of my knowledge sorry :|
[02:13] <] GoldenDragon> =] 
[02:13] <RamiKassab> bimberi: oh now that's cool
[02:13] <Talisker> What does it mean if when I'm trying to mount a certein CD I get mount: Not a directory?
[02:13] <Tommy2k4> is there a .deb for mplayer
[02:14] <thoreauputic> !mplayer
[02:14] <ubotu> methinks mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[02:14] <Kyral> hmm
[02:14] <] GoldenDragon> for shockwave?
[02:14] <thoreauputic> !info mplayer
[02:14] <Tommy2k4> ty
[02:14] <Kyral> I think I have to roll my own....
[02:14] <ubotu> mplayer: (The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux), section multiverse/graphics, is extra. Version: 2:0.99+1.0pre7try2+cvs20060117-0ubuntu8 (dapper), Packaged size: 3265 kB, Installed size: 7916 kB
[02:14] <boricua> software update does it only try to update of shows you softare already install or upgrades from all ubuntu regardless if its install on my system?
[02:15] <Dewbie> lol
[02:15] <Dewbie> never mind
[02:15] <Kyral> someone remind me to compile apache2.2 tomorrow
[02:15] <kasuko> crimsun_: nothing is working
[02:16] <nickpresta> Heh.
[02:16] <nickpresta> This is why I want to package Apache.
[02:16] <nickpresta> I have to compile Apache 2.2.2 from source, along with PHP 5.1.4
[02:16] <crimsun_> kasuko: install mpg123-oss-i486 from multiverse and try to play an mp3
[02:17] <Dewbie> hmmm
[02:17] <Dewbie> I wonder if sound will work with the dapper update
[02:17] <Dewbie> so far its not
[02:17] <Dewbie> right now
[02:18] <Topslakr> where can I change apache's default directory to serve from?
[02:18] <Dewbie> I need to get the newest SMP kernel installed, andone know how to do it?
[02:18] <nickpresta> In the conf/httpd.conf file
[02:18] <nickpresta> DocumentRoot
[02:18] <Healot> !smp
[02:18] <ubotu> smp is, like, Symmetric Multi Processing. The x86 architecture way of using multiple CPUs in one computer.
[02:18] <Topslakr> I don't see that in  /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[02:18] <nickpresta> and then you need to edit the block that looks like, <some folder here/public_html/> and change it to the new location
[02:18] <Dewbie> I know what SMP is
[02:18] <Dewbie> LO
[02:18] <Dewbie> :P
[02:18] <bimberi> Topslakr: /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
[02:19] <Topslakr> thx bimberi, perefect
[02:19] <] GoldenDragon> can someone send me a pluginreg.dat file that allows shockwave to work?
[02:19] <Healot> i'm trying to provide the link to ubuntu's wiki on SMP kernel/settings and stuff :)
[02:19] <Kyral> well
[02:19] <bimberi> Topslakr: np :)
[02:19] <Healot> damn bot
[02:19] <Kyral> I wanted to recompile Apache anyway
[02:20] <Kyral> since this is my server...I should compile it down to the machine
[02:20] <Kyral> regards if Xen is underlying :D
[02:21] <Yoosah> hm it seems to be taking a lot of time to be sure that there are no ipv6 routers present.. :/
[02:21] <Kyral> nickpresta: PHP 5.1.2 is in Debian Testing, is 5.1.4 really that different?/
[02:22] <Yoosah> how do i turn the checking for ipv6 off? takes ages to boot this way
[02:22] <Duke_Forever> Hello
[02:22] <lwizardl> question I know there is the shipit service for the cds but what if I wanted to have them on a retail counter for free like some places do with netzero or aol discs
[02:22] <Yoosah> hi
[02:22] <nickpresta> @Kayral: There are quite a few changes from 5.1.2 to 5.1.4: http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php
[02:22] <kasuko> crimsun_: nope not working either -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15732
[02:23] <Muzik_> !dvd-css
[02:23] <ubotu> Muzik_: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:23] <Muzik_> d'oh
[02:23] <Kyral> nickpresta: anything major like security wise
[02:23] <Duke_Forever> sorry, i'm a newbie
[02:23] <Muzik_> whats the libdvdcss installation procedure (forgot the ! thing i've seen in the past)
[02:23] <Duke_Forever> need a little help
[02:23] <] GoldenDragon> can someone send me a pluginreg.dat file thats configured to allow shockwave on firefox? I already installed shockwave through windows firefox with wine... but when i tried to configure it it didn't work.. maybe i'm doing something wrong configuring.
[02:23] <jorvis_> a windows install blew away my boot loader ... I find forums on how to get it back, but how can I find out what to use for grub ( like (hd0,3) )
[02:23] <Kyral> nickpresta: because I just spent 2 days locking down :P
[02:23] <bullrage> Muzik_, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[02:23] <nuggio> anyone know how to get google earth running on dapper?
[02:24] <Duke_Forever> ...
[02:24] <franky123> hey, i was using the emifreq applet in gnome. is there a way to get something simular in xfce?
[02:24] <crimsun_> kasuko: ah well. hang tight, then.
[02:24] <valehru> I just logged into ubuntu......50% of the options I had in the administration menu just dissappeared
[02:24] <nickpresta> Well, there are a few security fixes, I believe, a couple memory leaks, being able to set wrong values and such. Ultimately, there is no huge difference for the casual person between 5.1.2 and 5.1.4
[02:24] <Duke_Forever> anyways my problem is that when I type "sudo" it says "unable to lookup ubuntu via gethostbyname()"
[02:24] <valehru> I think it may have been something to do with changing the group of the user
[02:24] <Tommy2k4> hmm i added the extra repositories and it still wont apt-get mplayer
[02:24] <Muzik_> bullrage what repository is that in... its not in mine :s
[02:25] <nickpresta> Perhaps I don't know the process a maintainer has to go through. Is there anyone who wishes to explain this?
[02:25] <Kyral> nickpresta: oy....I'll recompile
[02:25] <valehru> something
[02:25] <Kyral> nickpresta: #ubuntu-motu is better :P
[02:25] <nickpresta> Ah. Thank you =)
[02:25] <jorvis_> help!  a windows install blew away my boot loader ... I find forums on how to get it back, but how can I find out what to use for grub ( like (hd0,3) )
[02:25] <jorvis_> "fdisk -l" returns nothing for me
[02:25] <Yoosah> jorvis_: with a live-cd perhaps
[02:26] <jorvis_> Yoosah: yes, I was booted with one.  I found it though ... I had to do sudo fdisk -l
[02:26] <kasuko> crimsun_: thanks anyway at least I dont have to worry about it for weeks
[02:26] <Cornellius> brb
[02:26] <kasuko> crimsun_: if its not to much to ask but can you tell me whats wrong
[02:27] <Duke_Forever> ok... I don't like to flood but can anyone help me with this: "sudo: unable to lookup ubuntu via gethostbyname()"
[02:27] <bullrage> Muzik_, http://www.krazypenguin.net/Ubuntu_Dapper_Drake_6.06_Guide#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[02:27] <crimsun_> kasuko: the problem is that the creation of the mixer assumes something for everyone that's only true for certain AD18xx chipsets
[02:27] <Muzik_> bullrage thankya much :)
[02:27] <crimsun_> kasuko: your AD1985 codec is only one example
[02:28] <jorvis_> Yoosah: in grub when I do "root (hd0,1)" I just get "Selected disk does not exists.  But /dev/hda2 is the boot partition (from fdisk -l output)
[02:28] <lime4x4> is it possible to remove all bzip and gzip applications then reinstall them?
[02:28] <Tommy2k4> i added the extra repositories and it still wont find mplayer in the list
[02:28] <bullrage> I'm starting to like Multiple Workstations.
[02:29] <kasuko> crimsun_: ok ... so what am I looking for in a couple of weeks?
[02:29] <franky123> hi, i've started using xfce recently and I need to find a replacement for the gnome emifreq applet that lets you change the cpu frequency with powernowd. is there one out there?
[02:29] <bullrage> Tommy2k4, what command are you using?
[02:30] <Tommy2k4> sudo apt-get install mplayer
[02:30] <kasuko> jorvis_: try rootnoverify (hd0,1)
[02:30] <bullrage> try sudo apt-get update and then try again
[02:30] <Tommy2k4> i did that too
[02:30] <arthurb> Hey
[02:30] <Tommy2k4> and i tried with adept gui thingy
[02:30] <Duke_Forever> got to go, thanx anyways
[02:30] <arthurb> anyone find the new picture on the ubuntu website disturbing ?
[02:30] <Healot> which one?
[02:31] <jorvis_> kasuko: an then what?  after that "setup (hd0)" says "selected disk does not exist"
[02:31] <Tommy2k4> i did update again and its stuck at 99% waiting for headers
[02:31] <crimsun_> kasuko: a new kernel update in Dapper.
[02:31] <crimsun_> kasuko: it won't be this next (upcoming) kernel update but the /next/ one.
[02:31] <kasuko> jorvis_: are you doing this at boot or in terminal
[02:32] <jorvis_> kasuko: booting off a liveCD
[02:32] <jorvis_> or liveDVD
[02:32] <Tommy2k4> is it meant to stay on "99% waiting for headers" for ages when doing apt-get update
[02:32] <ProN00b> is there a special dapper xgl version ?
[02:32] <ubuntu_> hello?
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> finally it finished but it errored
[02:33] <ubuntu_> have a question
[02:33] <jorvis_> gotta run.  be back in a bit
[02:33] <kasuko> jorvis_ i missed your original problem could you repeat it to me. Im no grub expert but Ive read some to get windows to work
[02:33] <DShepherd> ubuntu no you dont
[02:33] <ubuntu_> i'm trying to mount a drive while using 5.10 live cd
[02:33] <ubuntu_> keeps saying, cannot find in /etc/fstab?
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> odd
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> Package mplayer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> is only available from another source
[02:33] <Tommy2k4> E: Package mplayer has no installation candidate
[02:34] <Wigginz> I am having a problem with installing Ubuntu. When I try to format the partitions i want to use for swap space and for installing on, using the utility on the disk, It formats it to "Unknown" and will not install. Does anyone know what might be causing this or how I can fix it?

[02:35] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: try again in half an hour and see if the server responds
[02:35] <thoreauputic> ChakRa: videolan (vlc) should do it
[02:36] <Tommy2k4> Ubuntu_ by conf.list do you mean sources.list
[02:36] <thoreauputic> chakra85: and vlc is availbale for windows
[02:36] <ProN00b> is there a special dapper xgl version ?
[02:36] <bullrage> ChakRa, do I know you from somewhere?
[02:36] <Wigginz> Does anyone have any suggestions where i can look to find a solution maybe?
[02:36] <chakra85> thoreauputic, in vlc, how do I access a share on the windows computer?
[02:36] <thoreauputic> chakra85: no idea - I don't do windows
[02:36] <chakra85> bullrage, I don't think so... i was on here earlier today
[02:37] <bullrage> ChakRa, FTC or STF sound familiar?
[02:37] <chakra85> thoreauputic, i have folders shared on the winxp box, and I'm trying to access them on my ubuntu box
[02:37] <chakra85> thoreauputic, through samba
[02:37] <interferon> i just upgraded to dapper, and now i get errors about gnome not being able to start my session.  i can only get into gnome by starting "gnome failsafe."  any ideas?
[02:37] <chakra85> bullrage, no, sorry...
[02:37] <Cornellius> Why am I unable to play midis and why can have I no midi mappers that I can choose ?
[02:37] <Tommy2k4> chakra85:  whats your problem
[02:37] <bullrage> ChakRa, ah, sorry.
[02:37] <Healot> chakra85: for streaming... setup a webserver, if you need to share the files/folders, Samba
[02:38] <chakra85> Tommy2k4, I'm trying to access music on my winxp box from ubuntu
[02:38] <thoreauputic> chakra85: as I said, I don't do windows - I 've only played with samba, and I use NFS or ssh
[02:38] <Healot> well, vlc needs the webserver to stream the media...
[02:38] <thoreauputic> chakra85: someone else might be able to help you
[02:38] <Tommy2k4> chakra85: sudo mount //192.168.1.101/sharename /media/share
[02:38] <chakra85> Tommy2k4, I can't just click a mp3 file in nautilus to open them
[02:38] <chakra85> thoreauputic, ok, thanks anyway
[02:39] <thoreauputic> Healot: vlc does not need a webserver to stream media
[02:39] <Tommy2k4> obviously replacing that with the real ip of the pc

[02:48] <geeksauce> i found ia binary of the program i was trying to compile, but it's an RPM.  how do i convert it to a DEB?

[02:48] <chakra85> Tommy2k4, (sorry this isn't working..) now it's saying that I have the "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //ShareBox/dl, missing codepage"
[02:48] <ron_o> !alien
[02:48] <ubotu> alien is probably [rpm]  the Redhat Package Management file. Very similar to Debian's DEB files, but require alien to install. ask me about !alien. But first, look for a native ubutu deb.
[02:48] <Kasuko> Healot. I want a script I can run in Linux. This script will restart my computer and then Reboot into Windows XP but only once after I use the script. So if I reload Ubuntu and restart (without the script) it will default to ubuntu again
[02:48] <ompaul> geeksauce, we have 20k programs what is it called we might be able to find it for you
[02:48] <chakra85> Tommy2k4, dmesg gives me "smb_fill_super: missing data argument"
[02:48] <farous> geeksauce: search for a deb equiv. than if not install from source is better. alien should be a last resort
[02:49] <geeksauce> ompaul, ccxstream
[02:49] <Healot> Kasuko: you will still be content to GRUB...

[02:49] <Kasuko> Healot: Meaning?
[02:49] <dimarino> will dapper drake install in a nforce4 chipset with raid 0?
[02:49] <geeksauce> farous, i don't know how to install from source and no directions are given

[02:50] <Wigginz> can anyone see this? :-/
[02:50] <geeksauce> farous, ccxstream-1.0.15
[02:50] <farous> give me a min to see if it is in the repos
[02:50] <geeksauce> farous, alright
[02:50] <nirmal> !alien

[02:51] <geeksauce> farous, it doesn't have to be that specific version

[02:53] <ompaul> geeksauce, ^^ last comment by ubotu
[02:53] <farous> geeksauce: you can check help.ubuntu.com. I personally use this http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/
[02:53] <Healot> "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" >> kaizoku
[02:53] <farous> geeksauce: follow the link ubotu sent
[02:53] <farous> geeksauce: by the way it is so easy so just few steps. and some time for th package to compile and you are done
[02:54] <kaizoku> Healot:that's what I did, but now it doesn't load X when I boot
[02:54] <Healot> kaizoku: did X try to load but failed?
[02:54] <geeksauce> farous, i have seen that page before, but there is no ./Configure file
[02:54] <kaizoku> no
[02:55] <Healot> kaizoku: did you install any desktop?
[02:55] <kaizoku> I can start it with 'startx', but then I can't choose my window manager
[02:55] <kaizoku> what?, you mean like an alternate window manager?
[02:55] <kaizoku> I installed blackbox
[02:55] <farous> geeksauce: it is configure file not ./configure file
[02:55] <Healot> ddid blackbox starts?
[02:55] <Kyral> kaizoku: edit your ~/.xinitrc
[02:55] <ompaul> geeksauce, look for readme readmefirst install etc you do have to work these things out it is part of the fun of having such a powerful o/s to hand
[02:55] <kaizoku> no
[02:56] <farous> geeksauce: you type in a terminal where the package is ./configure to run it
[02:56] <kaizoku> I'm in gnome
[02:56] <Wigginz> I guess I will try the forums :-/
[02:56] <Kyral> kaizoku: put "exec <insert WM command here>"
[02:56] <geeksauce> farous, i did and it says no such file
[02:56] <Kyral> so for blackbox its "exec blackbox"
[02:56] <conhe> (firefox-bin:10676): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[02:56] <conhe>  what is ?
[02:56] <kaizoku> ok, thanks
[02:56] <Healot> conhe: are you on x64?
[02:56] <Kyral> conhe: means you don't have X running
[02:57] <Healot> on in tty?
[02:57] <farous> geeksauce: read ompaul posts he is sincerely trying to help you. Using alien is risky
[02:57] <kaizoku> Kyral: what if I just want the regular boot screen, where I can choose my WM?
[02:57] <conhe> Healot,  no
[02:57] <Kyral> kaizoku: then make sure GDM is starting in the boot sequence
[02:57] <Healot> no to which question?
[02:57] <Kyral> kaizoku: or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:57] <kaizoku> Kyral: how do I do that
[02:57] <kaizoku> ok. thank you
[02:57] <farous> geeksauce: i am sure you can find a deb binary somewhere if you search enough time. can you send me a link to where you found the package
[02:57] <Healot> "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" >> kaizoku
[02:57] <geeksauce> ompaul, i checked the readme, and it mentions nothing about compiling...only how to use the program once it's already compiled
[02:58] <geeksauce> farous, yeah hold on
[02:58] <Set> OK, I give up and need help
[02:58] <ompaul> geeksauce, do not touch alien it can break your system in new and interesting ways
[02:58] <Roger_The_Bum> fascinating
[02:59] <kaizoku> I get "invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed." when I try to reconfigure GDM

[03:00] <nooby_god> is there a way for root to take on my current theme?
[03:01] <wubrgamer> important, could you do me a favor and tell me what the default string is for gconf-editor>apps>gnome-session>options>splash_image is ?
[03:01] <wubrgamer> please
[03:01] <Toma-> nooby_god: yeh there is...
[03:01] <qmf> does 6.06 not come with gparted?
[03:01] <nooby_god> Toma-: that would be...
[03:01] <boolka>  anyone has an intel 2200 B/G built in laptop card and got it working?
[03:01] <krazykit> qmf: no, but you can install it
[03:01] <Toma-> nooby_god: 1 moment
[03:01] <farous> geeksauce: have a look at this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=239721 look at ignatz42 post
[03:02] <qmf> krazykit, i cant find it in the packet manager
[03:02] <Toma-> nooby_god: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77694

[03:02] <Toma-> nooby_god: see question 4
[03:02] <nooby_god> thank you very much Toma-
[03:02] <farous> geeksauce: now the forums, wiki and help.ubunt.com are all excelent resources and am sure you will need them later so better bookmark them
[03:02] <Toma-> nooby_god: np
[03:02] <thoreauputic> !tell qmf about docs
[03:02] <wubrgamer> important, could you do me a favor and tell me what the default string is for gconf-editor>apps>gnome-session>options>splash_image is ?
[03:02] <nooby_god> Toma-: would you also know how to change the theme of KDE programs in GOME?
[03:03] <Toma-> nooby_god: ummm dont know..
[03:03] <thoreauputic> qmf: also read the desktop guide that is built in ( icon on the top panel)
[03:03] <thoreauputic> qmf: and/or visit http://help.ubuntu.com
[03:03] <ompaul> geeksauce, I strongly suggest you find a faq on  programming in C or C++ and read it to get an idea of what your trying to do, there are no such docs that jump out at me, I have been off looking for it, doing what your thinking of doing may break your machine
[03:03] <wubrgamer> please
[03:03] <wubrgamer> could an ubuntu user PM me ? i need to have someone tell me what the default string is in a registry like setting, PLEASE UBUNTU USER PM ME !

[03:05] <geeksauce> farous, that's the page i got the rpm link from.  i still don't understand how to convert it into a DEB package.
[03:05] <[Ex0r] > so you can't use a flag with sudo to input a password so you can avoid a password prompt ?
[03:05] <WhatTheDeuce> Sorry for repeating the questions, but how do I figure out my ip address and my router's ip address in Ubuntu?
[03:05] <nickrud> wubrgamer, you can see the derault string by right clicking a string, and selecting unset

[03:05] <DShepherd> how can I get a n with a tilde in ubuntu. my setting is english
[03:05] <wubrgamer> thank you
[03:05] <farous> geeksauce: did you look the post i told you about the guy installed it from source
[03:05] <Xgates> say I thought I'd give 6.06 a go and I'm on the Gnome desktop, but I click install the desktop rez is 640x480 and I can't do anything, I need to change the resolution but I can't seem to get it to go with xorg.conf
[03:05] <nickrud> er default
[03:05] <qmf> thoreauputic, i've looked through the guides and tried installing the gparted .deb but i cant work out how to install the dependant stuff it needs
[03:06] <nickrud> !tell Xgates about fixres
[03:06] <geeksauce> farous, yeah, but i don
[03:06] <thoreauputic> qmf: wrong approach - look in your package manager ( ad/remove or synaptic)
[03:06] <geeksauce> 't
[03:06] <geeksauce> understand
[03:06] <wubrgamer> i love you guys, later
[03:06] <harry> wubrgamer: whats the command to run and edit the sources.list in gedit. from terminal
[03:06] <thoreauputic> !tell qmf about synaptic
[03:06] <qmf> thoreauputic i've looked through both. gparted isn't listed
[03:06] <thoreauputic> !info gparted
[03:06] <ubotu> gparted: (partition editor for GNOME), section gnome, is optional. Version: 0.1-0ubuntu9 (dapper), Packaged size: 232 kB, Installed size: 1280 kB
[03:07] <LjL> qmf: yes, it is... try "sudo apt-get update"
[03:07] <thoreauputic> qmf: it's in main, so it must be listed :)
[03:07] <LjL> qmf: then try "apt-cache show gparted"
[03:07] <K^Holtz> is there a way with linux to only allow certain filenames? For example, in a directory, not allow files that begin with R or higher
[03:07] <Simplyflower> can anyone help me in getting my sound card to work... it worked in hoary, but won't work in either breezy or dapper
[03:08] <LjL> K^Holtz: don't think so, not without hard programming anyway.
[03:08] <farous> geeksauce: some packages i alwasy presumed older ones do not have configure file. ccxst is one of them so you jumpt to step no two. you type make if everything is ok read the readme file
[03:08] <qmf> when i search for gparted in synaptic nothing comes up. let me try apt-get update
[03:08] <LeafWiz> Is there a way to mount .bin files?
[03:08] <farous> geeksauce: before that sudo apt-get install libreadline5-dev
[03:08] <Xgates> nickrud: I'm far from a being a Linux newbie, I already ran 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and picked 1024x768, now I take it, this isn't good enough there is a bug in the install?

[03:08] <geeksauce> farous, i got that lib and it's compiled now
[03:08] <Healot> LeafWiz: if that's one of Windows infamous CD image, you can use bchunk
[03:09] <farous> geeksauce: ok read the readme file to run it then
[03:09] <Healot> if it is an installer of some kind, chmod +x and run it
[03:09] <farous> you are done or did you get a compilation error
[03:09] <jello> i'm having trouble installing 6.06 from the live CD, can someone PM me for assistance?  Thanks
[03:09] <qmf> aha, now it's in there. any ideas why it wasn't there in the first place?
[03:09] <nickrud> Xgates, hrm, does the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file say anything about the available resolutions? Also, I assume you've set the HorizSync & VertRefresh for your monitor in the xorg?
[03:09] <K^Holtz> LjL: someone i know is having problems w/ uploading files w/ names beginning w/ R or higher, if they upload it as a.bin and rename it to s.bin it dissappears.. Any idea why this might happen?

[03:09] <harry> what command do i use to run and edit the sources.list in gedit???
[03:10] <uXp> is there such prog in ubuntu that acts like a reminder when i choose the time?
[03:10] <bernier> harry you can use nano

[03:10] <harry> bernier. what command??
[03:10] <Xgates> nickrud: yes I set everything
[03:10] <bernier> nane "name of the file"
[03:10] <LeafWiz> toma: I don't wish to convert, it takes to much time, and space. Isn't there a "daemon-tools" like there is in the windows world
[03:10] <LjL> K^Holtz: i really wouldn't know. of course, the system might be running a script that continuously checks for and removes filenames with >R
[03:10] <bernier> nan*
[03:10] <bernier> nano "name of the file"
[03:10] <Healot> LeafWiz: nay
[03:10] <ompaul> geeksauce, install and read gcc-4.0-doc
[03:10] <Healot> those are infamous Windows CD Images...

[03:18] <N9URK> [21:13]  <N9URK> I just installed Dapper Drake (desktop) on my machine and the Xwindows didn't make it.  Did I screw something up?
[03:18] <Aaron_Mason> LjL: kudos
[03:18] <LjL> Aaron_Mason: oh, nevermind, the bot answered meanwhile =)
[03:18] <N9URK> I have the cli but not xwindows
[03:18] <thoreauputic> N9URK: sounds like you need to run  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:19] <N9URK> does xwin or xorg not install automatically?
[03:19] <N9URK> thanks
[03:19] <LjL> Aaron_Mason: of course you'll then have to convert from ppm to jpeg, but that's easy enough with netpbm
[03:19] <ompaul> N9URK, your question lacks information, such as video card and other useful items like what your getting in its place - tell the channel, I am about to do some work on another machine
[03:19] <Aaron_Mason> LjL: cheers
[03:19] <N9URK> thankes thoreauputic
[03:19] <N9URK> thanks ompaul
[03:19] <venki> has anyone else tries to ssh on a machine whose ip is assigned by a DHCP server
[03:20] <thoreauputic> N9URK: it helps if you have your vid card specs handy including vert and horiz sync rates etc
[03:20] <venki> please help me
[03:20] <N9URK> tho: let me see if I can find them
[03:20] <geeksauce> anyone?  bash says file not found but clearly it is there
[03:20] <N9URK> tho: I was first trying to determine if I screwed something up during the install
[03:20] <jorvis_> kasuko: still around?
[03:21] <Xgates> nickrud: well all I can see is that I have nvidia card, so without the nvidia drivers I would imagine this is why I can't get the rez I want
[03:21] <Manderson> Anyone know of a quick way to download a program - and all of its dependents, maybe with synaptic, but then just save the files to the local hard drive so that I can burn to CD and take them to a non-networked PC?
[03:21] <LjL> geeksauce: put "./" before the command. you can't just type a local filename in the shell and have it execute
[03:21] <ompaul> N9URK, type the first 4 letters of thoreauputic's nick snd hit tab :-)
[03:21] <Aaron_Mason> sweet for 1.5mbit ADSL
[03:21] <Xgates> nickrud: but I thought since Ubuntu installs graphically they would of worked around this
[03:21] <nickrud> Xgates, the nv driver will do it, it's almost certainly a monitor definition problem.
[03:21] <Xgates> hmm
[03:21] <thoreauputic> N9URK: as a first attempt you can choose the vesa driver, which is generic, and the simple options - but the better way is to give all the info you can to the dpkg-reconfigure questions
[03:21] <Xgates> well I have the correct specs for the Monitor in it
[03:21] <[Ex0r] > Anyone here know if there is any software package like macromedia studio for ubuntu
[03:21] <[Ex0r] > ?
[03:21] <nickrud> Xgates, not all monitors report info that dpkg-reconfigure can use
[03:22] <[Ex0r] > preferably dreamweaver
[03:22] <Xgates> anyhow what was that you said for me to check?
[03:22] <thoreauputic> N9URK: generally your driver will be correctly identified
[03:22] <Dreamglider> i have now booted the liveCD,,i dont have a mouse and resolution is stuck at 640x480 so i cant see much when i start the installer :/ i'd like some help
[03:22] <jorvis_> [Ex0r] : nothing really as advanced, but for more basic stuff you can try bluefish
[03:22] <[Ex0r] > doh
[03:22] <jorvis_> [Ex0r] : or run macromedia apps through wine
[03:22] <nickrud> Xgates, /var/log/Xorg.0.log , there's a section about halfway(?) in that lists all the resolutions, both enabled and not enabled
[03:22] <Xgates> Dreamglider: LOL, yeah me too, stuck at 640x480, I think I see that Ubuntu has a problem with this installed
[03:22] <Xgates> installer .....
[03:22] <harry> ompaul: after getting my breezy up to date... now i can upgrade to dapper even using a CD????
[03:23] <libdmb> anyone know how to print every package installed in debian/ubuntu?
[03:23] <Xgates> nickrud: ok one sec
[03:23] <N9URK> how do you typically start xorg in ubuntu?  Do you have to "startx" everytime?
[03:23] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : nvu is an OK wysiwyg editor for html
[03:23] <N9URK> ctl alt F7 doesn't do anything
[03:23] <thoreauputic> N9URK: no, usually the login screen ( gdm) starts up graphically
[03:23] <nickrud> Xgates, I won't  be able to say much else without seeing the log & xorg.conf
[03:23] <anto9us> N9URK, I find it best to restart gdm
[03:23] <jorvis_> any grub people in here?  I did "rootnoverify (hd0,1)", but when doing "setup (hd0)" I get "Selected disk does not exist".  help?
[03:24] <inono> Hey guys, my user list in X-Chat Gnome disappeared.. anyone know how to get it back?
[03:24] <venki> how to enable ssh in a machine with ip assigned by a DHCP server?
[03:24] <Manderson> libdmb - not sure if this is the most efficent way, but you could do a `dpkg -l >> installed_programs
[03:24] <Kyral> venki: as normal?
[03:24] <nickrud> inono, hover the mouse over the right edge of the window; when you get a double headed arrow, left mouse-drag
[03:24] <thoreauputic> inono: try dragging from the right side of the window :)
[03:24] <Kyral> ssh doesn't care really
[03:24] <jorvis_> venki: /etc/init.d/sshd start
[03:25] <venki> yeah i did that
[03:25] <venki> ssh localhost works as well
[03:25] <Kyral> All SSH does is listen on a port
[03:25] <Kyral> connected or not
[03:25] <venki> but from a remote host
[03:25] <venki> it is not able to ssh to this machine
[03:25] <harry> how do i edit my sources.list as a root??? i'm going to upgrade from breezy to dapper using a CD
[03:25] <lonegeek> how can i move my ubuntu install to a partition on another hard drive with windows installed
[03:25] <N9URK> I just did "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and got "xserver~ is not installed and no info available" what would cause the ubuntu install to not install xserver-xorg?
[03:25] <mjb> hey has anyone got a good simple command line script that can list most frequently appearing words in an error_log file?
[03:25] <Yoosah> venki: you mean you don't know the ip where to connect to?
[03:26] <venki> no i know that
[03:26] <nickrud> N9URK, did you do a server install?
[03:26] <N9URK> desktop
[03:26] <Dreamglider> when the liveCD system is booted can i install ubuntu from terminal ?
[03:26] <anto9us> venki, dhcp is irrelevant to the issue, make sure sshd is installed and running
[03:26] <Manderson> harry - sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:26] <harry> how do i edit my sources.list as a root??? i'm going to upgrade from breezy to dapper using a CD
[03:26] <venki> and nslookup also works fine from the remote host
[03:26] <thoreauputic> N9URK: type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:26] <venki> but the remote host is not able to connect
[03:26] <harry> Manderson: i dont get it. what do they mean as a root. i'm still very new to using linux...
[03:26] <ardchoille> harry, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:27] <nickrud> Xgates, put it up on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[03:27] <Yoosah> venki: firewall?
[03:27] <[Ex0r] > So nobody here has used rioutil or jrioutil ?
[03:27] <thoreauputic> venki: did you install openssh-server ?
[03:27] <Manderson> harry - root is the superuser.
[03:27] <anto9us> venki, can you ping the machine? does it have an account with the same name you're logging from or are you using -l option?
[03:27] <venki> yeah i did that
[03:27] <N9URK> thor: I thought ubuntu automatically installed xorg?
[03:27] <Kyral> it does
[03:27] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : what are they and what do they do ?
[03:27] <Kyral> not in a Server Install
[03:27] <Xgates> nickrud: I was hoping I can send it to you DCC
[03:27] <Xgates> hmm
[03:27] <harry> ardchoille: and still paste the sources like the one we paste when upgrading from the internet???
[03:27] <jello> The Ubuntu installer keeps failing to create a file system at 15%!  Does noone know how to help this?
[03:27] <N9URK> then why didn't it install on mine?
[03:27] <Xgates> copy and paste in nano sucks
[03:27] <thoreauputic> N9URK: something went wrong with the install, eveidently
[03:27] <Kyral> N9URK: did you select to do a server install?
[03:28] <thoreauputic> *evidently
[03:28] <[Ex0r] > rioutil is a command line interface that comes with ubuntu for communicating with Rio mp3 players, and JRioUtil is the java based GUI client for it
[03:28] <ardchoille> harry, it's just a text file, you can paste sources in it
[03:28] <N9URK> Kyral - no I did not
[03:28] <harry> Manderson: you mean like the administrator  in windows XP
[03:28] <[Ex0r] > thoreauputic,  rioutil is a command line interface that comes with ubuntu for communicating with Rio mp3 players, and JRioUtil is the java based GUI client for it
[03:28] <Kyral> N9URK: dunno then sorry
[03:28] <Xgates> nickrud: ok my bad got the text editor open
[03:28] <Kyral> harry: yes and its a BAD IDEA TO BE IT ALL THE TIME!!
[03:28] <Manderson> harry - do you have the "alternate install" ubuntu CD?
[03:28] <thoreauputic> N9URK: just type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop - and see what happens
[03:28] <Kyral> ubotu tell harry about root
[03:28] <harry> Manderson: yes
[03:28] <venki> no actually ping also not working .. i just checked
[03:28] <N9URK> thoreauputic: thanks will try
[03:29] <Manderson> harry - okay, just making sure. You can't upgrade from CD if you have the Desktop/live cd version
[03:29] <anto9us> venki, ifconfig shows an ip address?
[03:29] <LeafWiz> What do I need to install, to like compile stuff? :P *is in adept installer*
[03:29] <Kyral> harry: read the link that ubotu PM'd you
[03:29] <Owen`> can anyone take a look at my forum post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196760&page=2 please? I'm Oblong_Cheese
[03:29] <harry> Kyral: ok
[03:29] <RadiantFire> LeafWiz: build-essential
[03:29] <Xgates> nickrud: ok here's the log ---> http://pastebin.com/709842
[03:29] <Kyral> ubotu tell LeafWiz about compile
[03:29] <Owen`> its about X and nvidia-glx...
[03:29] <harry> Manderson: i've been with the desktop CD. it just wont work:
[03:29] <N9URK> thoreauputic: It said "couldn't find package"
[03:30] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : ah OK - thanks. I know nothing about them though, sorry
[03:30] <thoreauputic> N9URK: ...
[03:30] <Manderson> harry - yeah, the desktop CD does not have the packages themselves on it...thats why if you have to upgrade, using it won't work
[03:30] <harry> Manderson: actually i've already upgraded to dapper drake before out of luck which i dont know how i did it.
[03:30] <venki> inet address is only shown
[03:30] <thoreauputic> N9URK: did you interrupt the installation at all ?
[03:30] <[Ex0r] > darnit all. rioutil needs sudo to run, and jrioutil can't interface with it because of it for some reason
[03:30] <N9URK> thoreauputic: I might be having network problems on that machine
[03:30] <N9URK> thoreauputic: No, I did not
[03:30] <harry> Manderson: but when i tried to install the nvidia driver. the 3D comiler, everything went wrong.
[03:30] <anto9us> venki, you have a networking issue if your eth0 or whatever device has no ip address
[03:30] <lonegeek> how can i copy my ubuntu install to a new hard drive...? without screwing windows mbr or grub
[03:31] <harry> Manderson: i coudnt log in to GDM anymore. the x server fails to start
[03:31] <Xgates> nickrud: here is xorg.conf ----> http://pastebin.com/709849
[03:31] <Manderson> harry - what sources are you trying to add to your sources list?
[03:31] <thoreauputic> N9URK: if this is the desktop CD, maybe you would have better luck with the alternate CD
[03:31] <N9URK> I'll dl it and try
[03:31] <thoreauputic> N9URK: is it an old machine? How much RAM do you have on it?
[03:31] <venki> Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0C:F1:70:A2:7B
[03:31] <venki>           inet addr:192.168.0.3  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
[03:31] <venki>           inet6 addr: fe80::20c:f1ff:fe70:a27b/64 Scope:Link
[03:31] <cyphase> is there a known bug in the version of rhythmbox in dapper that makes it freeze randomly?
[03:31] <ardchoille> what is the alternate CD for?
[03:31] <Aaron_Mason> cheers all who helped
[03:31] <harry> Manderson: its here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades
[03:31] <N9URK> thoreauputic: how much ram do I need?
[03:32] <thoreauputic> !alternate
[03:32] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is the classical Ubuntu text-installer, with no Live session available on it.
[03:32] <venki> this was the output .. do u think something needs to be configured??
[03:32] <thoreauputic> N9URK: at least 192 MB for hte desktop CD
[03:32] <ardchoille> thoreauputic, ah, thanks :)
[03:32] <N9URK> thoreauputic: it is a new machine (2months old) but it doesn't have a lot of ram
[03:32] <nickrud> Xgates, ok, it's a lcd. do sudo ddcprobe , see if you get any info about your monitor
[03:32] <anto9us> venki, shouldn't paste in here but no, that looks ok, can you ping anything from that machine?
[03:32] <Xgates> nickrud: I don't have a LCD I have a CRT, LOL
[03:32] <N9URK> thoreauputic: it has => 512
[03:32] <ardchoille> N9URK, that should be plenty of ram
[03:33] <swim> is there anything in dapper installed on default that I can erase a cdrw with?
[03:33] <thoreauputic> N9URK: if it is *very* new, it's possible that there are some drivers that aren't available for it
[03:33] <venki> yeah the ping works fine
[03:33] <cArNaGe``> quick question:  How do I keep bluefish from opening up when I click on a link?
[03:33] <anto9us> venki, it's not responding to pings though?
[03:33] <Manderson> harry - when you insert the dapper cd into your drive...does a window pop up saying "an ubuntu cd has been detected, start package manager?"
[03:33] <Dreamglider> is it not posible to install with the classical Ubuntu text-installer from the liveCD, must i download the whole cd again! :/
[03:33] <passbe> is the only diff between 6.06 server and desktop, is that server has the lamp install ?
[03:33] <thoreauputic> N9URK: but you should be able to install anyway - so there's some other issue
[03:33] <venki> yeah true
[03:33] <nickrud> Xgates, your log says you have a MultiSync 97, google says it's a LCD
[03:33] <geeksauce> now i'm getting error message "can't bind server socket to port 1400"
[03:33] <venki> sorry for the pasting thingy
[03:33] <harry> Manderson: i havent tried it yet for the alternate CD
[03:33] <nickrud> Xgates, so that is probably the problem
[03:34] <N9URK> thoreauputic: should I try 5.10 or whatver the previous ubuntu ver was?
[03:34] <N9URK> thor: and see if that does something different?
[03:34] <swim> anybody hello?
[03:34] <ardchoille> hi swim
[03:34] <jighead> Dreamglider, unfortunately you have to get the alternate cd for the text mode install
[03:34] <inono> nickrud: thoreauputic: dragging didnt help
[03:34] <thoreauputic> N9URK: no, not if your machine is only 2 months old :)
[03:34] <Xgates> nickrud: I get this on it --->  http://pastebin.com/709854
[03:34] <Manderson> harry - that's what it did on mine...and if you click yes, then you can go right into synaptic from there, with the CD added as the source...so you can upgrade
[03:34] <Dreamglider> that's weerd
[03:34] <Yoosah> swim: k3b ?
[03:34] <Manderson> hi swim
[03:34] <Dreamglider> should be on the same cd, maybe in the next version it will.
[03:34] <Miravlix> Is it just me or is the number of fataly broken packages in 6.06 just a tad too high.
[03:34] <anto9us> venki, are both machines using same ip range 192.168.0.* and same host mask?
[03:35] <thoreauputic> inono: personally I would install xchat - xchat-gnome is castrated anyway :)
[03:35] <swim> does anyone know if there is anything preinstalled on dapper that can erase a cdrw? k3b is not preinstalled and Id rather not install it honestly
[03:35] <N9URK> thoreauputic:  Ubuntu isn't even recognizing the ethernet card.  The Winblow$ install on another hard drive on the same box does
[03:35] <nickrud> Xgates, plug in  horiz 31-96, vert 55-160
[03:35] <N9URK> I must be having problems
[03:35] <venki> no that is different
[03:35] <thoreauputic> N9URK: check for hardware compatibility on the wiki
[03:35] <harry> Manderson: do i have to perform dist upgrade for breezy, or sudo apt-get update only then i can jump right into dapper
[03:35] <thoreauputic> !hardware
[03:35] <ubotu> methinks hardware is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:36] <venki> 128.210.* in the remote host
[03:36] <inono> my users in xchat are still missing :(
[03:36] <Xgates> nickrud: I did that before when I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:36] <Drac[Away] > This has never happened before. When I try to access any site that uses javascript, X crashes. I'm running PPC Ubuntu Breezy. Please help/.
[03:36] <anto9us> venki, that looks like an internet range
[03:36] <Dreamglider> someone try http://www.klid.dk/homeftp/ubuntu-cd/6.06/ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso see if it works
[03:36] <Xgates> nickrud: I picked for it to automatically detect my hardware and it did, and it picked the correct settings for it
[03:36] <eugman> Is there a way to view olny the packages I have installed which nothing Is dependant on? It'd make getting rid of leftover cruft much easier.
[03:36] <nickrud> Xgates, the log says you're using 28.00-33.00 & 43.00-72.00,
[03:36] <ardchoille> swim, I know that gnomebaker can blank a cd-rw
[03:36] <LjL> Dreamglider: no it doesn't
[03:36] <Manderson> harry - not sure I understand your question.
[03:36] <anto9us> venki, local networks are usually 192.168.0.* or 10.0.0.* or another I don't recall right now
[03:36] <thoreauputic> eugman: deborphan
[03:37] <ardchoille> swim, graveman can do it too
[03:37] <venki> actually inet address of the remote host is 128.210.189.231
[03:37] <lwizardl> question I know there is the shipit service for the cds but what if I wanted to have them on a retail counter for free like some places do with netzero or aol discs how could i get more than like 10
[03:37] <swim> ardchoille: so nautilus cant and neither can serpentine?
[03:37] <N9URK> thoreauputic:  THanks for the help!!!
[03:37] <Manderson> harry - have you already upgraded to dapper?
[03:37] <Xgates> nickrud: hmm odd the auto detect showed the correct ones and I used them, let me run it again
[03:37] <thoreauputic> N9URK: no worries - good luck :)
[03:37] <nickrud> Xgates, plug in the actual values
[03:37] <Xgates> nickrud: one sec, thanks, btw  ;p
[03:37] <Drac[Away] > I'm trying to make a computer that can be used by my great grandmother. Something is horribly wrong and I can't put a CD-ROM drive in the computer to reinstall Ubuntu. Please help me! PLEASE!
[03:37] <venki> bcast ip is 28.210.255.255
[03:37] <harry> Manderson: out of luck.
[03:37] <anto9us> venki, this is a machine on your lan yes?
[03:37] <Xgates> nickrud: yeah I did, let me run it again, brb
[03:37] <nickrud> Xgates, I'm glad it's not an LCD, they are much harder for me since I've never owned one.
[03:37] <venki> yes
[03:37] <eugman> I actually have that installed. I'm still curious if there is a way to do what I want to do.
[03:38] <harry> Manderson: i just always do experimenting updates then suddenly i restarted my computer and changed to dapper
[03:38] <Xgates> hehe
[03:38] <Xgates> brb
[03:38] <anto9us> venki, is it in a dmz?
[03:38] <venki> which one ... my machine or the remote machine??
[03:38] <anto9us> venki, either
[03:38] <venki> i dont think either if them is in
[03:38] <dou213> hey guys, i have installed vmware-player, but i don't know how i can configure it now... when i open it, it prompts me to load a .vmx file... can some1 help?
[03:39] <anto9us> venki, seems it's got an external ip address
[03:39] <ardchoille> swim, I don't think either of those can blank a cd-rw
[03:39] <Drac[Away] > I think I'm having a panic attack.
[03:39] <Healot> dou213: do you have any prepared VMWare image (.vmx)
[03:39] <harry> Manderson: i mean to keep my breezy update to date before to upgrade in breezy do i have to perform suod apt-get dist-upgrade or sudo apt-get update just to get breezy up to date
[03:39] <LjL> dou213: vmware-player only *plays* virtual machines that were created with vmware workstation.
[03:39] <mjb> hey has anyone got a good simple command line  that can sort the most frequently appearing words in an error_log file?
[03:39] <dou213> Healot, no.. how can i do one?
[03:39] <anto9us> venki, that's a problem with your router configuration
[03:39] <venki> is it becoz it is assigned by a DHCP service provider?
[03:39] <LjL> dou213: so the file it's asking it's the virtual machine specifications. if you don't have one, you're out of luck
[03:39] <bitlooter> gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:39] <dou213> LjL, vmware workstation is not free
[03:39] <anto9us> venki, no, it's because you set up a dmz machine is my guess
[03:39] <ardchoille> mjb, tried #bash ?
[03:40] <LjL> dou213: indeed, it is not.
[03:40] <Healot> dou213: with VMWare workstation/enterprise... or download somewhere
[03:40] <N9URK> thoreauputic: would you please paste me a link to the wiki to the page you reccomend?  I cannot find any good results for "ethernet"
[03:40] <venki> can you give me an idea about how to reset it?
[03:40] <mjb> I was thinking some  ~ to sort
[03:40] <Zauephuaes> Hi folks. Does anyone know where I can find information about installing Oracle on Dapper (AMD64)?
[03:40] <mjb> sorry that was supposed to be a pipe

[03:40] <dou213> Healot, do u know some sites where i can download? i've heard of vm-builder.. or something, what's that in ubuntu?
[03:40] <jighead> swim, how about gnomebaker
[03:40] <swim> yah Ill get one of those

[03:41] <N9URK> ubotu: Thanks
[03:41] <ubotu> N9URK: pas de quoi
[03:41] <anto9us> venki, read your router manual and configure your dhcp to issue a range along 192.168.0.* with netmask of 255.255.255.0
[03:41] <thoreauputic> N9URK: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards
[03:41] <venki> thanks a lot, anto9us
[03:41] <anto9us> venki, disable any dmz settings in your firewall
[03:41] <jighead> inono, you can hit your print screen button and it should take a shot
[03:41] <N9URK> thoreauputic: THanks
[03:41] <jrib> inono: PrintScreen button on your keyboard should do it
[03:41] <swim> does evolution do finances as well as email and everythihng else it does?
[03:41] <Healot> dou213: that's third party question.. search for it on the Web
[03:41] <mike__> I have a ATI Radeon 9600XT (I know...) and have the fglrx driver installed, but I can't get anything higher than 1024x768 resolution. Anyone know much of this sort of thing?
[03:41] <thoreauputic> N9URK: ubotu is a bot by the way :)
[03:43] <Draconicus> Is my problem so bizarre and retarded that nobody will help me, or am I just being ignored because I'm not interesting enough?!
[03:43] <Manderson> inono - `alt - prnt scrn`
[03:43] <KuLover> Is reiserfs or ext3 better? Or is one not better than the other?
[03:43] <Healot> KuLover: either
[03:43] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:43] <malegria> hi. i just installed tomcat and it seems to work. (with http://localhost:8180/). in an how to for a cms it says that i have to change stuff in /opt/tomcat5/. but it doesn't exist. what did i do wrong?
[03:43] <mike__> Draconicus: in a big channel like this, it usually means no one has any advice.
[03:43] <ardchoille> inono, Applications -> Accessories -> Take Screen Shot ?
[03:43] <nickrud> Draconicus, I missed the question, probably most others did also
[03:43] <Draconicus> mike__: I'm here all the time. I often get a great deal of help.
[03:43] <Healot> they are both journalized FSes...
[03:43] <Draconicus> This has never happened before. When I try to access any site that uses javascript, X crashes. I'm running PPC Ubuntu Breezy. Please help.
[03:43] <mike__> Draconicus: I don't mean they don't like you :P
[03:43] <mike__> You sure it's JS? Maybe not flash?
[03:43] <N9URK> thoreauputic: My ethernet card is on my motherboard - they don't mention it on the list does this mean it is incompatible?
[03:43] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:43] <thoreauputic> Draconicus: there are currently 837 people here - why do you think you are being ignored ?
[03:43] <nickrud> Draconicus, I hanve no ppc ;)
[03:43] <mike__> I've had firefox crash when loading flash, never X
[03:43] <Draconicus> It might be flash, but I don't think the hotmail or yahoo mail pages have flash.
[03:43] <Manderson> harry -  if you're trying to update breezy - open synaptic and chose "mark all updates"
[03:43] <KuLover> For a storage drive that contains music files, (/media/music) should I set it to be mountable by roon and set it to mount on startup? Or something defferent?
[03:43] <N9URK> thoreauputic: I figured that out about ubotu once I got the reply to my thanks ;)  I like its reply
[03:43] <Manderson> harry - then hit apply
[03:43] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:43] <anto9us> Draconicus, is it just x that crashes can you alf+f1 to a terminal?
[03:43] <KuLover> roon=root**
[03:43] <mike__> Draconicus: I'd think maybe advertisements, but I don't know. Just kind of tossing that idea in, since I've personally seen a similar problem
[03:43] <thoreauputic> N9URK: not necessarily - look for the chip rather than the card  ( ie check the manual for details)
[03:43] <Draconicus> mike__: I've never either. Not even with this version of Ubuntu. It's so weird...
[03:43] <nickrud> KuLover, I have my music set up jst that way
[03:43] <inono> guys what is all this "The following packages cannot be authenticated!" stuff I'm getting in apt-get ??? http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/8Uhft976.html
[03:43] <Manderson> Anyone know of a quick way to download a program - and all of its dependents, maybe with synaptic, but then just save the files to the local hard drive so that I can burn to CD and take them to a non-networked PC?
[03:44] <Xgates> nickrud: something is messed up with this  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, because in xorg.conf it shows my correct settings
[03:44] <alagran> I would like to install kde. Is there an easy way to do that?
[03:44] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:44] <ardchoille> Manderson, Synaptic has an option for that.
[03:44] <mike__> alagran: yeah, synaptic. Good stuff
[03:44] <KuLover> nickrud How do you have it formated? on an extended parition or primary?
[03:44] <Xgates> nickrud: will Ubuntu run xorgconfig?
[03:44] <nickrud> Xgates, if the xorg is correct, then it should be good. post the xorg.conf also
[03:44] <malegria> anybody? -->tomcat
[03:44] <MarcN> Manderson: apt-get -dy install whateverpackage   and then grab the packages from /varc/cache/apt/archive
[03:44] <nickrud> KuLover, that's irrelevant
[03:44] <mike__> alagran: If you google for "ubuntu to kubuntu" (I think), there's instructions
[03:45] <mike__> alagran: something like that
[03:45] <KuLover> nickrud, Okay thanks.. wasn't sure if it mattered.
[03:45] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:45] <Zauephuaes> I guess no one does Oracle on Ubuntu :-) Googling so far tells me people have problems on the AMD64 arch and I hoped to get some 'inside information' in here. But like Draconicus it appears no one likes my question. maybe not easy enough. If so, where do you think I could get some help on this?
[03:45] <mike__> alagran: I did exactly that - installed Ubunutu and then moved to "Kubuntu"
[03:45] <bitlooter> help please!!
[03:45] <jighead> alagran, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[03:45] <alagran> mike_: thanks I'll take a look
[03:45] <nickrud> KuLover, very true, it never hurts to ask
[03:45] <Xgates> nickrud: xorg.conf ---> http://pastebin.com/709865
[03:45] <ardchoille> Manderson, all the packages that Synaptic downloads are kept in /var/cache/apt
[03:45] <mike__> alagran: it's quite painless, really. I bet once you find a page explaining, it'll be no problem at all
[03:45] <alagran> jighead: Thanks! I'll try that
[03:46] <bitlooter> help!!:gnome allows me to login and automatically goes back to login screen
[03:46] <amiel> can anybody tell me what the "alternative" install cd is (as opposed to desktop and server)
[03:46] <fiveiron> hey if i dont want to install the server version of ubuntu, is there a way to just "apt-get" the LAMP setup that the server version installs?
[03:46] <mike__> bitlooter: that's... odd
[03:46] <thoreauputic> !alternate
[03:46] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is the classical Ubuntu text-installer, with no Live session available on it.
[03:46] <Healot> Zauephuaes: btw there are more PL/SQL programs for Linux, like Postgres SQL and MYSQL
[03:46] <amiel> bitlooter: check your home directory permissions
[03:46] <bitlooter> yea i know!
[03:46] <ardchoille> Manderson, but, you may need to go to the Files tab in Synaptic settings and make a change there so the packages are kept instead of deleted
[03:46] <anto9us> Zauephuaes, postgresql is a great alternative to oracle
[03:46] <jighead> bitlooter, hit ctl+alt+F1 and log in, then look at .xsession-errors, and stop repeating yourself
[03:46] <Draconicus> mike__: Apparently it's not related to the user or WM. I just tried GNOME and the main user instead of XFCE and a secondary user. Still crashed.
[03:47] <Xgates> sheesh ever since I can remember going back to when Ubuntu started out they've been having this same issue with getting the resolution, now on Dapper they still have this problem some 3 years later, I just don't get it
[03:47] <KuLover> Anyone know.. after "chown"ing a file, is it possible to set it back to default?
[03:47] <mike__> Don't mean to spam, just tossing it out again - anyone used an Radeon in Ubuntu? I have the driver installed and all, just can't get resolution higher than 1024x768.
[03:47] <Zauephuaes> Healot: I know of EnterpriseDB for example.  It's Postgres but with Oracle compatibility. Our application is a seriously heavy duty third party Java app that won't be supported unless its running under Oracle.
[03:47] <awesometaylor> Hey guys, how can i see if 3d acceleration is enabled?
[03:47] <bitlooter> yesterday the problem was a full disk but then i took care aof that and it allowed by to login.after changing resoltution and reboot then ow this.
[03:47] <ardchoille> KuLover, what were the file settings before you changed them?
[03:47] <mike__> awesometaylor: run something 3d? :)
[03:47] <Draconicus> mike__: How the hell is that spam? :P
[03:47] <anto9us> KuLover, it doesn't remember a default, you can set it back to what it was if you can remember who owned it though
[03:47] <mike__> awesometaylor: try "glxinfo"
[03:47] <jae686> awesometaylor, glxinfo
[03:47] <Maerksi> hello. I'm going to install ubuntu but I have another 2 partitions from the old windows instalarion. they are ntsc. will I be able to work with them or do I need to backup, change to fat32 and restore my stuff?
[03:47] <nickrud> Xgates, that is very weird, I have that same card & had no problems with the nv driver getting those higher resolutions; try logging out of gnome, hitting ctl-alt-backspace. This will force a re-read of the xorg.conf
[03:48] <awesometaylor> k, thanks
[03:48] <mike__> Draconicus: Meh, some channels dislike asking multiple times.
[03:48] <mike__> awesometaylor: np
[03:48] <Xgates> nickrud: ok thanks brb
[03:48] <fiveiron> if i dont want to install the server version of ubuntu, is there a way to just "apt-get" the LAMP setup that the server version installs?
[03:48] <mike__> fiveiron: I'm sure you could just install the packages you want.
[03:48] <thoreauputic> !tell fiveiron about lamp
[03:48] <KuLover> anto9us It was a newly created mount point, if that helps.. The reason I chowned it was because I couldnt copy files to it. Is that normal?
[03:48] <ardchoille> fiveiron, do you know what LAMP stands for?
[03:48] <rlaager> Where can I find a list of the differences between the -server kernel and the -686 or -386 kernel?
[03:48] <mike__> fiveiron: I don't know the exact differences, but it's just a few packages
[03:48] <bernier> !lamp
[03:49] <paradizelost> I get "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server" when i try to log in to squirrelmail, i'm trying to get it to work.
[03:49] <dou213> what's the package name for VMWare Workstation?
[03:49] <anto9us> KuLover, I think you need to edit the mount permissions
[03:49] <mike__> KuLover: probably was owned by root, no world-writeable
[03:49] <mike__> dou213: do a "sudo apt-cache search vmware"
[03:49] <thoreauputic> dou213: there's vmplayer
[03:49] <thoreauputic> !info vmplayer
[03:49] <mike__> dou213: I don't know offhand, but that should find it. Or lisen to thoreauputic  :P
[03:49] <fiveiron> mike__, yeah... i think the server setup configures everything for you and secures it and everything.
[03:49] <Zauephuaes> thanks, healot and anto9us. I think I'll subscribe to the mailing list and give it a shot there.
[03:49] <KuLover> anto9us How would I mount a drive for it to be user accessed where I can copy files to it?
[03:49] <amiel> ubotu: thanks, Im not quite sure if I understand why its there (it seems to be just as big as the Desktop cd).
[03:49] <ubotu> amiel: no problem
[03:49] <ardchoille> KuLover, may be a better idea to copy files using sudo
[03:49] <Maerksi>  hello. I'm going to install ubuntu but I have another 2 partitions from the old windows instalarion. they are ntsc. will I be able to work with them or do I need to backup, change to fat32 and restore my stuff?
[03:50] <thoreauputic> rats wrong package name sorry
[03:50] <anto9us> KuLover, is it a samba mount?
[03:50] <Xgates> nickrud: hehe FINALLY ctrl alt backspace was the deal  ;)  sheesh
[03:50] <KuLover> ardchoille Music files?
[03:50] <dou213> thoreauputic, what now?
[03:50] <Xgates> nickrud: thanks man  :)
[03:50] <paul_> maerksi ubuntu should see ntfs partitions
[03:50] <UKMatt> how do I install a .bin?
[03:50] <nickrud> Xgates, sorry about that, I usually remember to suggest that earlier :)
[03:50] <thoreauputic> !info vmware-player
[03:50] <N9URK> I have the NVIDIA GeForce 6100 chipset:  Does it mean that a driver for that chipset does not exist? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCards I do not see 6100 listed but I do see a 6 series.  THanks
[03:50] <ubotu> vmware-player: (Free virtual machine player from VMware), section multiverse/misc, is optional. Version: 1.0.1-4 (dapper), Packaged size: 11563 kB, Installed size: 31248 kB
[03:50] <Draconicus> mike__: www.hotmail.com doesn't have ads. It has a complicated redirect that's either JS or PHP. Yahoo has something similar.
[03:50] <jrib> Maerksi: assuming you mean ntfs, you can read them, but writing isn't really safe
[03:50] <mike__> Maerksi: It'll read NTFS fine. I intially was reading media from one
[03:50] <KuLover> anto9us To be honest, I'm not sure,
[03:50] <ardchoille> KuLover, hmm.. good point
[03:50] <mike__> Draconicus: ah. Got me, then. heh, sorry
[03:51] <anto9us> KuLover, on same machine or another one?
[03:51] <paul_> you wont be able to write to ntfs partitions tho
[03:51] <nickrud> Maerksi, if yu want to write to the partitions, you'll need to change at least one to fat32
[03:51] <Maerksi> but can I work on my ntsc hd ? like updating documents, deleting videos... stuff like that?
[03:51] <paul_> nope
[03:51] <Maerksi> ahh I see
[03:51] <paradizelost>  I get "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server" when i try to log in to squirrelmail, i'm trying to get it to work.

[03:51] <UKMatt> I'm trying to put Google Earth on here, its a .bin, can someone help me do that
[03:51] <jrib> Maerksi: if you won't be using windows, just move your stuff to ext3
[03:51] <KuLover> anto9us Same
[03:51] <mike__> UKMatt: just execute the .bin
[03:52] <thoreauputic> !msg
[03:52] <ubotu> please don't /msg people or start a personal message/ dcc chat without asking first in channel. People might be busy, and you have a better chance of an answer in the channel. Don't assume a particular user will be able to help you.
[03:52] <mike__> UKMatt: it's a executable binary.
[03:52] <N9URK> mike__: is that a good driver?
[03:52] <UKMatt> mike_, what do you mean?
[03:52] <Xgates> nickrud: boy I was starting to feel like a REAL noob here with this thing, LOL
[03:52] <JohnsonE> any of you guys played Nexuiz?
[03:52] <mike__> UKMatt: "./whatever.bin"
[03:52] <paul_> fat32 allows you to read write etc, ntfs read only
[03:52] <Xgates> nickrud: well off for the install, might be back later, ALOHA
[03:52] <mike__> N9URK: NO idea, I have a damn ATI :(
[03:52] <UKMatt> mike_, limme try
[03:52] <mike__> N9URK: hehe
[03:52] <Maerksi> also, I want to install ubuntu but I want to have a small local webpage working from apache. Is there an easy way to setup apache on ubuntu? On windows I just need to unzip and then drop stuff on a folder. is there a GUI for apache in ubuntu?
[03:52] <Pepinito> higen, someone know how inkjet printers work?
[03:52] <inono> chmod u+x googleearth.bin first
[03:52] <mike__> inono: good catch, forgot that

[03:53] <inono> Can anyone help me with this? http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/8Uhft976.html
[03:53] <paul_> google earth is out for linux now?
[03:53] <UKMatt> mike_, what do I type before it in terminal?
[03:53] <mike__> Maerksi: you just install the package, move the files to wherever, not too hard at all
[03:53] <boolka> Does anyone have  Intel 2200 B/G built in wifi card on a laptop and got it working? ( It sees the AP, but wont connect)
[03:53] <Maerksi> paul_ yes it is, version 4 beta :)
[03:53] <ardchoille> paul_, yes, recently I believe
[03:53] <paul_> cool
[03:53] <mike__> UKMatt: literally just "./filename.bin". replace "filename" with whatever it's called.
[03:53] <UKMatt> mike_, I cd'd to the folder, put in the name.bin and it gave me bash: syntax error near unexpected token `2'
[03:53] <higen> Pepinito:  dont know acutally.. only have experiences with HP deskjet and lasterjet.. and they work fine :)
[03:53] <JohnsonE> question: i'm trying to install nexuiz. it has 686 version and an x86_64. which do I need? :(
[03:53] <uliba> guys just updated to dapper from 5.10 and the dhclient is giving me: subnet_number():inet.c:56: Addr/mask length mismatch. It was ok with 5.10 i have an via onboard ethernet and the static address works ok too, any ideas?
[03:53] <Maerksi> mike__ I just need to search for apache in synaptic and install?
[03:53] <paradizelost> i get ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server.when trying to log in to squirrelmail
[03:54] <jighead> inono, what repo server are you using?
[03:54] <mike__> Maerksi: aye.
[03:54] <thoreauputic> Maerksi: by default you can make your address your.domain.com/~yourusername by putting stuff in /home/you/public_html
[03:54] <UKMatt> mike_, its GoogleEarthLinux.bin, so I typed in GoogleEarthLinux.bin from the directory and got that
[03:54] <Hexidigital> Maerksi:: i assume you want the latest version of apache?
[03:54] <hikikomori> hello
[03:54] <hikikomori> can i ask something please?
[03:54] <mike__> damnit, I hate when I end up answering questions and forget about my question altogether
[03:54] <mike__> hikikomori: NO YOU MAY NOT
[03:54] <inono> jighead, just the ubuntu 6.06 ones i got after doing an upgrade
[03:54] <mike__> hikikomori: ;)
[03:54] <Hexidigital> Maerksi:: in that case "sudo apt-get install apache2"
[03:54] <N9URK> How could I determine what Network Card I have?  THe CompUSSR page says only that it is "Network Support:	Ethernet (10/100 Mbps)"
[03:54] <hikikomori> ?
[03:54] <Hexidigital> !justask
[03:54] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[03:54] <mike__> hikikomori: I'm joking
[03:54] <Draconicus> Okay. Here's the deal: If you help me fix this very broken Ubuntu installation, you'll make an 86 year old woman very happy.
[03:54] <Maerksi> thoreauputi really? no need to install apache?
[03:54] <mike__> hikikomori: Ask away
[03:55] <JohnsonE> question: i'm trying to install nexuiz. it has 686 version and an x86_64. which do I need? :(
[03:55] <hikikomori> ok thanx people
[03:55] <Pepinito> higen, the ting i want to know is how printers work, how do they pull the ink
[03:55] <hikikomori> i just installed ubuntu today
[03:55] <hikikomori> i would like to run applications made in java in my ubuntu
[03:55] <anto9us> N9URK, lspci will list it if it's a pci device
[03:55] <thoreauputic> Maerksi: heh - install apache first :)
[03:55] <hikikomori> how can i do this?
[03:55] <mike__> hikikomori: for future reference, in big help channels, it's considered good form to just walk in and ask, no need for pleasentries. Channel is too busy for that :)
[03:55] <Draconicus> If you don't help me fix this, my great grandmother will be heartbroken. All she's ever wanted is to be able to do email on the computer. I'm setting up a version of Ubuntu that's simple enough for her to work with.
[03:55] <higen> Pepinito:  dont have a clue :).
[03:55] <thoreauputic> Maerksi: no webserver = no go
[03:55] <Hexidigital> thoreauputic:: apache is required for apache2
[03:55] <Hexidigital> ?
[03:55] <Pepinito> higen, ok, no problem
[03:55] <higen> playing Beneath a steel sky :)
[03:55] <hikikomori> ok mike ,sorry
[03:56] <inono> N9URK, sudo lspci | grep Ethernet
[03:56] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital: apache2 is what I have installed
[03:56] <Pepinito> higen, thanks anyway
[03:56] <mike__> hikikomori: don't be, someone's got to tell you :)
[03:56] <Hexidigital> thoreauputic:: oh, misunderstood you :)
[03:56] <mike__> hikikomori: there ought to be a java vm. I don't know the package name though, offhand
[03:56] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital: it will pull in dependencies
[03:56] <inono> How do I fix the "verification" problem in apt-get ?
[03:56] <UKMatt> anyone know what bash: syntax error near unexpected token `2' is?
[03:56] <Maerksi> thoreauputic so I'll go to synaptic and search for apache and php and install?
[03:56] <hikikomori> people how can i run java applications in ubuntu?
[03:56] <Hexidigital> thoreauputic:: that's what i thought
[03:56] <mike__> UKMatt: means something ain't right. o.o
[03:56] <paradizelost>  i get ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server.when trying to log in to squirrelmail
[03:56] <inono> hikikomori, by installing gcj, ibm, or sun's jvms
[03:56] <thoreauputic> Maerksi: ah if you want php it becomes a little more complex
[03:57] <N9URK> anto9us: inono: Thanks
[03:57] <hikikomori> which one do u recommend me?
[03:57] <mike__> UKMatt: you sure you're running the right file?
[03:57] <UKMatt> mike_, is there something I have to type in before the filename?
[03:57] <thoreauputic> !tell Maerksi about lamp
[03:57] <harry> Manderson: before breezy detect my dapper cd-rom automatically, my breezy should up to date right??
[03:57] <anto9us> hikikomori, I think it's just "java <program"
[03:57] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: you might want to explain more about CD doesn't work
[03:57] <inono> hikikomori, probably Sun's
[03:57] <KuLover> anto9us Thank You! One more question, that that page doesnt explain.. how would I mount a drive as root an have it where me, the user can write files to it?
[03:57] <inono> hikikomori, try using "java" keyword first, its already installed
[03:57] <mike__> UKMatt: nein. no
[03:57] <UKMatt> mike_, yeah... google's linux version of google earth, which since ubun is the most popular, it would pretty much have to be compatable with
[03:57] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: CD? What CD?
[03:57] <hikikomori> inono
[03:57] <gnomefreak> to change a full dir permissions its chmod -r 755 <dir> right?
[03:57] <anto9us> KuLover, is it ntfs?
[03:57] <mike__> UKMatt: I ran it on here, breifly, it ought to work
[03:57] <UKMatt> mike_, and I've even heard that google runs its own version of ubuntu
[03:57] <harry> Manderson: before breezy detect my dapper cd-rom automatically, my breezy should up to date right??
[03:57] <hikikomori> do u mean java ./nameofapplication?
[03:57] <inono> Bloody hell, how do you fix the *verification* problem guys? I'm totally new to apt-get here
[03:58] <N9URK> anto9us: inono: It says that it is an nVidia corp: MCP51 and I don't see nvidia on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards
[03:58] <mike__> General disclaimer! I have run Ubunutu for 4 days so far...
[03:58] <mike__> hehe
[03:58] <N9URK> does that mean there is not a driver for it?
[03:58] <UKMatt> mike_, then whats my deal?!?
[03:58] <inono> hikikomori, man java
[03:58] <Maerksi> thoreauputic thanks
[03:58] <hoss> Question: I'm trying to install WMA support for beepmediaplayer and during the step "./configure" I get an error that no C compiler was found in $PATH. When I run 'make', bash says file not found. Is there something I need to install first before I can compile?
[03:58] <thoreauputic> Maerksi: if you just want to serve static pages, apache2 will do
[03:58] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak:: i believe so
[03:58] <anto9us> N9URK, look at ndiswrapper
[03:58] <gnomefreak> ty Hexidigital
[03:58] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: you were talking about installing Ubuntu on your grandmother's box and CD doesn't work, right?
[03:58] <Hexidigital> gnomefreak:: np
[03:58] <rubso> UKMatt: do you want to install/run Google Earth ?
[03:58] <mike__> UKMatt: Good question. heh, I'm really sorry, I just had no problems like that for the few minutes I ran it
[03:58] <Manderson> harry - yes, you'd want to make sure you're up to date
[03:58] <KuLover> anto9us reiserfs (I am familair with how to edit fstab.. but not about the finer points)
[03:58] <inono> N9URK, dude that's the SATA controller
[03:58] <harry> Manderson: yes
[03:58] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: No. X crashes if I try to access any site with anything beyond basic HTML in Firefox.
[03:59] <ardchoille> hoss, did you install build-essential ?
[03:59] <Maerksi> thoreauputicI want to use an automatic photo presentation I have on windows+apache in php
[03:59] <Maerksi> :)
[03:59] <siriusnova> ok guys stupid question i know
[03:59] <Maerksi> LAMP should work 'out of the box' ?
[03:59] <mike__> siriusnova: ask anyway :)
[03:59] <mike__> siriusnova: that's how you learn
[03:59] <inono> N9URK, err never mind, thats correct... mcp51 is an onboard lan
[03:59] <UKMatt> mike_, bash: GoogleEarthLinux.bin: command not found
[03:59] <Manderson> harry - then insert the alternate install cd and click yes when it asks if you want to open synaptic
[03:59] <siriusnova> but how do i "echo" commands into /proc/acpi/ibm/files
[03:59] <siriusnova> sudo doesn't allow me to echo commands
[03:59] <mike__> UKMatt: './GoogleEarthLinux.bin'
[03:59] <rubso> UKMatt: do you read me ?
[03:59] <nooby_god> how do I make firefox open when I click on links in GNOME?
[04:00] <rubso> UKMatt: do you want me to help you for installing/running Google Earth?
[04:00] <hikikomori> hey i think i have java installed but i cant run applications made in java
[04:00] <N9URK> what do I do with ndiswrapper?  anto9us
[04:00] <inono> siriusnova, you mean like echo "foo" >> /proc/acpi/ibm/files
[04:00] <ardchoille> UKMatt, are you putting a "./" in front of it? should be ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[04:00] <siriusnova> and chmodding them to rw wont allow me to do anything either
[04:00] <siriusnova> inono - yes
[04:00] <paradizelost>  i get ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server.when trying to log in to squirrelmail
[04:00] <hikikomori> look here please http://pastebin.com/709863
[04:00] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: check /var/log/Xlog.0.log and see what is happening
[04:00] <hikikomori> do anybody have any idea?
[04:00] <Ophiocus> !restricted
[04:00] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: I already have. It shows no errors.
[04:00] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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.
[04:00] <nickrud> siriusnova, there's some tricks, but doing sudo -i will give you a shell you can echo from
[04:00] <inono> siriusnova, echo works for me? :-\
[04:00] <mike__> hikikomori: sorry, Java really isn't "my thing".
[04:00] <siriusnova> hmm
[04:00] <hikikomori> : /
[04:00] <siriusnova> doh
[04:00] <siriusnova> im an idiot
[04:00] <hikikomori> ok thanx
[04:00] <UKMatt> sudo: ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin: command not found
[04:00] <siriusnova> im doing > instead of >>
[04:00] <[Ex0r] > im having some compile problems, anyone here willing to help me fix them?
[04:00] <hikikomori> hello?
[04:00] <jighead> gnomefreak, it's -R for recursion
[04:00] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: start firefox from the terminal and it should show the error message.
[04:00] <mike__> UKMatt: make sure you're in the same directory as it, too
[04:00] <Kyral> UKMatt: chmod a+x GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[04:01] <omi> Is there wine available for dapper for AMD64?
[04:01] <gnomefreak> jighead: yeah i figured that out
[04:01] <anto9us> N9URK, it allows you to use your windows drivers for linux, I'm off shortly, can't talk you through it
[04:01] <inono> UKMatt, noooo, dont do a+x
[04:01] <gnomefreak> ty jighead
[04:01] <inono> UKMatt, u+x is better
[04:01] <UKMatt> what are those?
[04:01] <Kyral> inono: SMACK!
[04:01] <Kyral> inono: SetUID BAD!!
[04:01] <inono> UKMatt, man chmod
[04:01] <ardchoille> UKMatt, make it executable, sudo chmod u+x filename.bin
[04:01] <mike__> UKMatt: It sets the file to be able to be run. Permissions
[04:01] <Kyral> Actually since its a shell script
[04:01] <omi> Is there wine available for dapper for AMD64?
[04:01] <rubso> inono: Google Earth won't work unitl you give permissions
[04:01] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: What good will the terminal do if X crashes? How can I read the terminal?
[04:01] <Kyral> Linux ignores the setuid bit
[04:01] <siriusnova> crap
[04:01] <siriusnova> nevermind
[04:01] <spikeb> i dont think wine is 64 bit
[04:01] <siriusnova> >> doesnt work either
[04:01] <siriusnova> :(
[04:02] <jighead> omi, wine is not ported to 64bit
[04:02] <N9URK> ok, I will read their page.  I will have to figure out how to install it as I cannot access the Net.  Probably get source and put it on a CD and transfer it over. Thanks for your help! anto9us
[04:02] <inono> i dont know about google earth specifically but a+x is a bad bad thing
[04:02] <spikeb> omi: i'm not so sure there is a 64bit wine at all
[04:02] <siriusnova> anyone?
[04:02] <nickrud> Kyral, that's not suid, u+s is suid i think
[04:02] <Kyral> inono: its the installer
[04:02] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: Also, I was looking at the wrong log. "Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting."
[04:02] <Kyral> he is gonna delete it afterward
[04:02] <inono> ok i guess it doesnt matter then
[04:02] <anto9us> N9URK, it's in the main repository I think
[04:02] <inono> anyone help me with this problem plz? http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/8Uhft976.html
[04:02] <mastorrent> i'm trying to get gstreamer plugins to work in dapper... while trying to open an mp3, i get the message "audio codec 'mpeg 1 layer 3 cbr' is not handled", but i checked my plugins (using gst-inspect|grep mp3) and have at least 3 that should decode mp3 files (flump3dec, mad, and mpegaudioparse). how do i get media players (totem in this case) to use the decoders?
[04:02] <hikikomori> hello i have jre installed on my machine and i would like to run applications made injava
[04:02] <mike__> One last shot - I can't get resolutions higher than 1024x768 on my ATI Radeon 9600XT, and I'm an xorg idiot, mostly. :\
[04:02] <Kyral> nickrud: oh all I know is that Linux ignores the SUID and SGID bits on shell scripts
[04:02] <hikikomori> but im getting this error
[04:02] <Kyral> and now. TO THE SHOWER!
[04:02] <hikikomori> http://pastebin.com/709863
[04:03] <N9URK> anto9us: would you think it is on the install CD?
[04:03] <spikeb> what is cbr?
[04:03] <mastorrent> constant bit rate
[04:03] <UKMatt> ahh that was it, i had to do chmod u+x to it before i ran it
[04:03] <jewel> has anyone here had problems with the openOffice word processor not *any* spelling mistakes?
[04:03] <mastorrent> as opposed to variable bit rate
[04:03] <inono> mike__, you have to edit xorg.conf manually
[04:03] <anto9us> N9URK, easy way to find out :)
[04:03] <nickrud> Kyral, I didn't know that, worth knowing ;)
[04:03] <mike__> inono: I did, I can't see what's missing. The modes are listed, as far as I can see.
[04:03] <UKMatt> thats crazy confusing
[04:03] <harry> Manderson: i cant fix my broken packages....
[04:03] <mike__> jewel: I haven't had that problem, no
[04:04] <inono> mike__, shouldbe okay then, restart X with CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[04:04] <omi> spikeb: do you know if there are plans to port wine to amd64?
[04:04] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: hm. firefox 2>fx-err.log. it should type error message to the file for you to read.
[04:04] <inono> omi, ask in #winehq
[04:04] <N9URK> I am looking now.  Was just seeing if you knew off the top of your head anto9us
[04:04] <mike__> inono: I retarded the whole box.
[04:04] <mike__> inono: lol! restared, rather
[04:04] <Manderson> harry - are you using synaptic or apt-get ?
[04:04] <spikeb> omi: i'm sure eventually there is
[04:04] <rubso> UKMatt: then its working now?
[04:04] <inono> mike__, hmm pastebin?
[04:04] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, did you install sun-java5-jre?
[04:04] <nickrud> jewel, have you checked Tools->options spelling aids yet?
[04:04] <spikeb> omi: since eventually there will be no 32bit windows left
[04:04] <hikikomori> yes pppo-dude
[04:04] <N9URK> this is my first install of Ubuntu so i still don't know what I am doing anto9us
[04:04] <mike__> inono: I do the ctrl+alt+ + to change resoltions, it never goes higher than 1024
[04:04] <harry> Manderson: synaptic
[04:04] <mike__> inono: sure, give me a moment.
[04:04] <hikikomori> pppoe dude but im getting this:
[04:04] <hikikomori> http://pastebin.com/709863
[04:04] <mike__> inono: thanks
[04:04] <UKMatt> rubso, yeah it is ty
[04:04] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, one second
[04:05] <Manderson> harry - you've tried to remove them?
[04:05] <omi> spikeb: but all the games will still be 32 bit for a while
[04:05] <hikikomori> ok many thanx pppoe-dude
[04:05] <anto9us> N9URK, well, to be honest, I only pretend to
[04:05] <spikeb> omi: yeah
[04:05] <inono> come on, how come NOBODY here knows about apt-get verification errors?!
[04:05] <harry> Manderson: no
[04:05] <rubso> UKMatt: you're welcome :)
[04:05] <nickrud> inono, what verification errors
[04:05] <inono> nickrud, when i try to install 99% of applications, it gives me a "Warning: the following packages cannot be authenticated"
[04:05] <jewel> nickrud: somewhat, this seems to be a really weird problem
[04:05] <N9URK> I think I know the xwindows problem.  I must have inadvertantly downloaded the server edition.
[04:05] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: No log was created.
[04:05] <omi> spikeb: as much as I find that game developers try to optimize graphics, their common sense sucks when it comes to systems stuff
[04:05] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, run sudo update-alternatives --config java
[04:05] <Hexidigital> hikikomori:: little tip... (depending on your client)... if you press TAB after typing the first few letters of a users name, it will finish it for you
[04:05] <Manderson> harry - filter all your broken packages and select all to remove them
[04:06] <gnomefreak> inono: are you using unofficail repos?
[04:06] <N9URK> I was sure I dled the desktop edition, maybe I am losing my marbles
[04:06] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, then choose sun java
[04:06] <harry> Manderson: where on the package menu???
[04:06] <rubso> btw guys, you run the Google Earth Installer by "sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin" ;) without giving it a+x permissions
[04:06] <inono> gnomefreak, i dont think so, how do I get a list of the repos?
[04:06] <N9URK> but now I am searching the CD it says server
[04:06] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, you seem to still be using the old java
[04:06] <gnomefreak> inono: what repo is it erroring on?
[04:06] <nickrud> inono, do sudo apt-key list, you should have some keys listed, one of which is the Ubuntu Archive
[04:06] <anto9us> N9URK, it's not difficult to install ubuntu-desktop on a server install, once you're networked that is
[04:06] <inono> gnomefreak, i cant say.. i just did this: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/8Uhft976.html and i got a warning
[04:06] <thoreauputic> rubso: it doesn't matter much if you remove the script afterwards :)
[04:07] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, run sudo update-alternatives --config java then choose "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java"
[04:07] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: oy. :/
[04:07] <inono> nickrud, yeah I got ubuntu archive and ubuntu cd image
[04:07] <rubso> oh
[04:07] <hikikomori> how do u know ppoe dude?
[04:07] <dou213> what is easier to install : .rpm files or .tar.gz?
[04:07] <Manderson> harry - one of the 4 buttons on the lower left corner is called "custom" click that, then click "broken" above it.
[04:07] <N9URK> anto9us: I will see if I can figure out ndiswrapper and get the card going
[04:07] <mike__> inono: http://pastebin.com/709887
[04:07] <anto9us> N9URK, it may be worth getting a compatible NIC, they're really cheap secondhand
[04:07] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, in the pastebin, "gnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.GtkToolkit"
[04:07] <nickrud> inono, strange, is it 437D05B5
[04:07] <mike__> inono: I edited as little as possible, for fear of breaking it worse. hehe
[04:07] <anto9us> N9URK, they're cheap new in fact
[04:07] <thoreauputic> dou213: you shouldn't need to install either
[04:07] <inono> nickrud, yes but i only get warning for *some* of the packages
[04:08] <harry> Manderson: so whats on the list are the broken packages...
[04:08] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: I hope you can still help...
[04:08] <N9URK> Actually, I have one,  Why don't I get smart and insall it?
[04:08] <N9URK> install not insall
[04:08] <dou213> thoreauputic, that means?
[04:08] <ardchoille> dou213, what are you strying to install?
[04:08] <Manderson> harry - correct.
[04:08] <dou213> a .rpm file
[04:08] <anto9us> N9URK, sounds like a plan
[04:08] <thoreauputic> dou213: you know we have over 17 000 packages availble in the package manager, right?
[04:08] <dou213> i have a program in 2 files... one is .rpm, and the other .tar.gz
[04:08] <inono> mike__, holy crap, your thing looks completely different from mine
[04:08] <ardchoille> dou213, what is the package/app ?
[04:08] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: i am trying to think of other ways to find why it's happening ...
[04:08] <nem1> -_-
[04:08] <iratsu> my friend's internet connection suddenly stopped working today, his ethernet controller doesn't have an inet addr anymore according to ifconfig. He tried replacing the ethernet card, but that didn't work and he can't get a connection using a livecd either. what should he do?
[04:08] <dou213> vmware workstation linux
[04:09] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: Okay.
[04:09] <inono> mike__, my modes under the screen section dont have the @Hz stuff
[04:09] <konfuzed> hey john how are you
[04:09] <nem1> does anyone in here have any experience with WebVCR+?
[04:09] <mike__> inono: hehe. It's the autogenerated crap, mainly. I just added the dri and glx modules, and changed the "ati" driver to the "fglrx" driver. THat's all
[04:09] <nickrud> inono, the key is for an entire repository, figure out which repo is giving the problem: when you identify a bad package, apt-cache policy will show you the repo, the web address.
[04:09] <anto9us> iratsu, check the router
[04:09] <inono> mike__, try having modes "1600x1200 1400x1050 1280x960...." instead
[04:09] <dou213> thoreauputic, actually i don't, i'm new to linux
[04:09] <thoreauputic> dou213: do you need the full workstation? vmware-player is available
[04:09] <mike__> inono: just remove the refresh rates?
[04:09] <gnomefreak> nickrud: i would take a look at his sources.list because xchat is in main iirc and hes prolly got like a debian repo trying to pull it from
[04:09] <inono> mike__, yep
[04:09] <inono> nickrud, apt-cache eh?
[04:09] <thoreauputic> !info vmware-player
[04:09] <mike__> inono: worth a shot, I'll try it
[04:09] <ubotu> vmware-player: (Free virtual machine player from VMware), section multiverse/misc, is optional. Version: 1.0.1-4 (dapper), Packaged size: 11563 kB, Installed size: 31248 kB
[04:09] <dou213> thoreauputic, yes i gotta create virtual machines
[04:10] <Hexidigital> !vmserver
[04:10] <Hexidigital> hmm
[04:10] <nickrud> gnomefreak, yeah, but he'll have to find out :) inono apt-cache policy xchat for example
[04:10] <konfuzed> johns^, hey is that you sharkey
[04:10] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, check your physical connections, restart dsl/cable modem, and do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:10] <[Ex0r] > grr, this stupid shit. Why does stuff have to be ran only from su ?
[04:10] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: i have seen it before once on my box .. flash was the cause (in my case)
[04:10] <thoreauputic> dou213: you can do that with qemu then use them in vmware-player
[04:10] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: By the way, I removed and reinstalled Firefox, and that did nothing.
[04:10] <harry> Manderson: what do i do next, how will i know if thats the to be removed???
[04:10] <thoreauputic> dou213: there is a wiki page about it
[04:10] <inono> nickrud, gnomefreak ok i did apt-cache showpkg xchat
[04:10] <mike__> inono: there's a lot of modelines that are identical except for the refreshrates. I should remove the duplicates, right?
[04:10] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: As you can imagine, there is no flash at mail.yahoo.com
[04:10] <inono> mike__, yes only leave the unique resolutions
[04:10] <konfuzed> oh i wonder if johns^ keyboard is working yet
[04:10] <gnomefreak> inono: apt-cache policy xchat
[04:10] <pppoe_dude> hikikomori, did it work?
[04:10] <mike__> inono: okay, thanks. Just making sure.
[04:10] <nickrud> inono, policy (brb, business calls)
[04:10] <inono> mike__, i wouldnt touch the modlines for now
[04:10] <iratsu> anto9us: router is fine
[04:10] <dou213> thoreauputic, link pls?
[04:11] <mike__> inono: oh, okay
[04:11] <inono> gnomefreak, nickrud ok , says dapper/universe
[04:11] <mike__> inono: just in the screen section then?
[04:11] <inono> mike__, yep
[04:11] <anto9us> iratsu, check cables and plugs
[04:11] <mike__> inono: got ya.
[04:11] <inono> hmm.. i'm using 6.06 thats not dapper is it
[04:11] <thoreauputic> dou213: coming :)
[04:11] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: ad sometimes goes in flash; how about using epiphany?
[04:11] <mike__> inono: yes, it is
[04:11] <gnomefreak> inono: please give me the full repo at teh bottom you will see one or 2 if 2 i need both
[04:11] <Manderson> harry - synaptic is just trying to remove your broken packages right? Click on the check mark (apply) and it'll confirm what you're getting rid of.
[04:11] <mike__> inono: 6.06 == dapper
[04:11] <inono> gnomefreak, http://us.archive.ubuntu.com dapper/universe Packages
[04:11] <gnomefreak> inono: yes 6.06 dapper
[04:11] <thoreauputic> dou213: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VmwarePlayer   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VMwarePlayerAndQemu
[04:11] <inono> gnomefreak, /var/lib/dpkg/status
[04:12] <rubso> guys, how can i get gaim 2.0.0 for ubuntu?
[04:12] <inono> i guess i need the dapper/universe key
[04:12] <harry> Manderson: i still got the error message
[04:12] <gnomefreak> inono: ok good im gonna give you a command to run real fast ok
[04:12] <anto9us> night all :)
[04:12] <inono> ok
[04:12] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: For testing purposes only. I hate that browser.
[04:12] <N9URK> anto9us good night
[04:12] <rubso> good night ;)
[04:12] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea we checked the physical connections and modem, i don't think doing "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" will do anything or else it would've worked with a livecd... but we'll try that
[04:12] <N9URK> anto9us thanks for the help
[04:12] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: is it dapper?
[04:12] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: No.
[04:12] <thoreauputic> dou213: ignore the stuff about compiling the player - you can get it fro multiverse
[04:12] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, might also wanna check that the connection is enabled
[04:12] <gnomefreak> inono: sudo sed -i 's/us\.//g' /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:12] <inono> mike__, i dont think you need the modeline either, it gets automatically calcualted from your HorizSync and VertRefresh
[04:13] <iratsu> anto9us: yea we checked all that, we took the same cable and plugged it into a laptop instead and it worked
[04:13] <gnomefreak> inono: run that command please let me know when its done
[04:13] <dou213> thoreauputic, are you using virtual machines?
[04:13] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yep did that too
[04:13] <thoreauputic> !tell dou213 about repos
[04:13] <thoreauputic> dou213: I play with them is all :)
[04:13] <inono> gnomefreak, all the sites changed from http://us.archive.... to http://archive ?
[04:13] <Maerksi> I have installed apache but I've searched the HD and couldn't find the apache folder. where is it usually located?
[04:13] <thoreauputic> dou213: I have used both kqemu and vmware-player
[04:13] <Maerksi> :)
[04:13] <gnomefreak> yes
[04:13] <harry> Manderson: i still got this error E: /var/cache/apt/archives/xserver-common_6.8.2-77.1_i386.deb: subprocess pre-installation script killed by signal (Segmentation fault)
[04:13] <harry> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/xserver-xorg_6.8.2-77.1_i386.deb: dpkg
[04:13] <harry> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/xserver-xorg_6.8.2-77.1_i386.deb: dpkg
[04:13] <gnomefreak> inono: now run sudo apt-get update
[04:13] <mike__> inono: I just removed all but the four "plain" resolutions from the screen section. You're saying I should remove all the modelines entirely?
[04:13] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: It IS PowerPC, though.
[04:13] <dou213> thoreauputic, if i have questions, maybe i'll ask you... can i ask u on prv then?
[04:13] <inono> gnomefreak, all right let me run that sed command first, heh
[04:14] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, does "cat /etc/networking/interfaces |grep eth0" give you something like: iface eth0 inet dhcp
[04:14] <gnomefreak> inono: ok
[04:14] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: not eth0, but eth1
[04:14] <Cornellius> god
[04:14] <thoreauputic> dou213: in general, keep your questions in channel - you have more chance of answers here
[04:14] <inono> mike__, doesnt hurt to try, they're redundant
[04:14] <Cornellius> TiMidity is CPU intensive
[04:14] <inono> gnomefreak, ok its runnig the update now
[04:14] <thoreauputic> dou213: and I'm not an expert anyway :)
[04:14] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" didn't do anything
[04:14] <mike__> inono: good enough for me, I backed up the file, if nothing else :)
[04:14] <dou213> ok, we'll see
[04:15] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: After installing the "epiphany" package, all I have to work with is "epiphany-game" - That gives "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'CL_Error' "
[04:15] <inono> gnomefreak, how do i tell if it did anything? it just read 17 repos
[04:15] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, how many network cards do you have?
[04:15] <mike__> inono: I'll try that, and whether or not it works I'll pop in and say so. Either way, I greatly appreciate the help.
[04:15] <inono> mike__, good luck
[04:15] <gnomefreak> inono: now install xchat
[04:15] <thoreauputic> !tell dou213 about docs
[04:15] <Manderson> harry - hmmm
[04:15] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: well there was the old one which was eth0, and then he removed the old one and put the new one which became eth1, so right now there's only one.
[04:15] <Manderson> harry - not seen that one
[04:16] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, what does "sudo ifdown eth1 & sudo ifup eth1" give you?
[04:16] <ardy> help how to clear my history typing on terminal ?
[04:16] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: hm. so it is possible that there is nothing wrong with browsers. something is wrong with X libs or something.
[04:16] <harry> Manderson: the one thats highlighted packages are the one to be removed?????
[04:17] <Manderson> harry - are they red?
[04:17] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, oops put two && in there
[04:17] <harry> Manderson: they are yellow
[04:17] <rab> how can i access my linux drive from windows, if im shut out completly from linux
[04:17] <mike__> inono: Seems to be no change, oddly enough. So weird.
[04:17] <thoreauputic> ardy: ctrl -L
[04:17] <IcemanV9> Draconicus: was it working just fine before something was added to the mix??
[04:17] <thoreauputic> ardy: clears the terminal
[04:17] <alagran> How do I install gkrellm?
[04:17] <mike__> rab: I've never seen how do to it.
[04:17] <mike__> rab: I really don't think you can
[04:18] <rab> :S
[04:18] <thoreauputic> !info gkrellm
[04:18] <ubotu> gkrellm: (multiple stacked system monitors: 1 process [client] ), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 2.2.7-5ubuntu1 (dapper), Packaged size: 388 kB, Installed size: 948 kB
[04:18] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: No. Seems it was this way since the beginning. Actually, there was a reconfiguration of eth0. I think it was fine before that..
[04:18] <thoreauputic> !tell ardy  about repos
[04:18] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: xlibs wasn't installed. Do you think that mattered?
[04:18] <ardy> thoreauputic, hmm.. its not clear the cache in terminal
[04:19] <inono> gnomefreak, hmm i already installed that, im on xchat right now
[04:19] <pppoe_dude> !ext3
[04:19] <ubotu> well, ext3 is a filesystem that Linux can be installed on and can be read/written from Windows via http://www.fs-driver.org
[04:19] <inono> mike__, hmm, not sure then :(
[04:19] <pppoe_dude> rab ^^
[04:19] <thoreauputic> ardy: do you want to wipe the whole bash history?
[04:19] <chadder> Is there a way I can setup a 'shared folder' between Ubuntu on VMware and WindowsXP ?
[04:19] <rab> omg
[04:19] <rab> pppoe_dude: you saved my life
[04:19] <daqing> hi all
[04:19] <Manderson> harry - okay, you selected all your broken packages and had them marked for removal? Then you hit apply...and the confirmation dialog came up. Were the packages that you selected in there?
[04:19] <nickrud> gnomefreak, did inono get his sources straight?
[04:20] <mike__> inono: going to try something else real quick here, brb. Again, despite the result, I do appreciate the help.
[04:20] <nickrud> oh, us
[04:20] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: wont the bash history file regenerate itself after you delete it?
[04:20] <mike__> pppoe_dude: THat's awesome, I had no idea you culd do that with windows.
[04:20] <pppoe_dude> ardy - terminal > reset and clear
[04:20] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: yes
[04:20] <gnomefreak> nickrud: dont know he installed it already but i took us out ofthem
[04:20] <pppoe_dude> ardy, or if you want to clear bash history, then type 'history -c'
[04:20] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: I assume so anyway
[04:20] <gnomefreak> pppoe_dude: his history will still be there
[04:21] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: im thinking it should
[04:21] <pppoe_dude> gnomefreak, not if he clears and resets
[04:21] <swim> hey folks, can anyone tell me how I can reset my xorg.conf? I had a different mouse on install, and I'd like ubuntu to just go ahead and set this one up automatically for me
[04:21] <eFoX> hey
[04:21] <eFoX> i have a question and ive been reading different things on the net
[04:21] <nickrud> swim, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:22] <eFoX> when you are installing ubuntu, what should you allocate for boot, swap etc..
[04:22] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: DHCPDISCOVER apparently
[04:22] <RadiantFire> eFoX: 128MB for boot is probably good, swap should be 2x ram
[04:22] <swim> nickrud: thank you
[04:22] <daqing> i have a problem with fcitx, when i type "fcitx" in terminal ,it says "can't open chinese punc file:/usr/share/fcitx/data/punc.mb
[04:22] <daqing> Please set XMODIFIERS....
[04:22] <thoreauputic> eFoX: in general the easiest is to let the installer do it for you
[04:22] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ok thats good
[04:22] <intelikey> rm $HOME/.bash_history ;history -c ;exit
[04:22] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: DHCPDISCOVER many times too apparently
[04:22] <harry> Manderson: its still not working, how do i locate the 1 broken package
[04:23] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, leave it for a bit
[04:23] <mike__> grrr
[04:23] <N9URK> for those who may have been following my case: I installed another ethernet card and I got access to the net.  I then apt-get upgrade. then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and am on the way.  I screwed up and dled the server version and not the desktop version  thoreauputic
[04:23] <chakra85> eFox, i tried to install gentoo a while back and they had a lot of advice as to how big to make swap etc.
[04:23] <chakra85> eFox, you might try looking up docs for gentoo
[04:23] <alagran> How do I install gkrellm for ubuntu 6.06?
[04:23] <thoreauputic> N9URK: ah - good to hear you worked it out :)
[04:23] <eFoX> chakra85: i tried to install gentoo a while back..tried for a week..gave up on it
[04:23] <spikeb> bah
[04:23] <daqing> what should i do?
[04:23] <eFoX> had too many probs compiling
[04:23] <spikeb> installing gentoo is very well documented
[04:23] <chakra85> eFox, haha same here
[04:24] <Manderson> harry - one of the 4 buttons on the lower left corner is called "custom" click that, then click "broken" above it.
[04:24] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: it also says No DHCPOFFERS received
[04:24] <thoreauputic> N9URK: you should have the same install fter that anyway
[04:24] <thoreauputic> *after
[04:24] <||arifaX> is there a documentation for variables I mean like ~0 and that stuff. eg. %1 in in win is parameter 1 parsed to a script or executable. I need info about the ones in linux/ubuntu
[04:24] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, seems to be something with the router
[04:24] <Manderson> harry - that will filter all your packages down to the 1 broken package.
[04:24] <chakra85> eFox, apparently, not well enough documented that a linux newbie can figure out
[04:24] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, type ping 192.168.0.1
[04:24] <Manderson> harry - then mark that one for deletion
[04:24] <eFoX> let me try with this install, if i have any probs..ill come back
[04:24] <eFoX> thanks for the advice
[04:24] <eFoX> one last thing
[04:24] <N9URK> why did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop need the install cd?
[04:24] <eFoX> how is ubuntu with 64bit cpu's ?
[04:24] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, do you get a reply?
[04:24] <intelikey> alagran apt-cache search <blah>   &&    sudo apt-get install <blah>
[04:24] <chakra85> thoreauputic, I finally figured out what was wrong with my mounts: i didn't have smbfs installed
[04:25] <eFoX> i have a turion 64, should i load the 64vit or the 32bit ?
[04:25] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, oops... ok,
[04:25] <chakra85> thoreauputic, stupid me, thanks for teh help earlier
[04:25] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: for ifdown, it also said "sending on Socket /fallback", he says
[04:25] <navilon> because you didnt comment it out on the sources list
[04:25] <thoreauputic> \\arifman bash - but the thing you are looking for will be in any bash howto
[04:25] <harry> Manderson: but this one doesnt fiilter to one.... i cant choose which one is broken
[04:25] <dou213> to install a .rpm file : "sudo alien -k filename.rpm"?
[04:25] <thoreauputic> chakra85: ah - no worries :)
[04:25] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: Apparently it didn't matter.
[04:25] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, run 'sudo network-admin', set a static IP for it, then try and ping your router
[04:25] <nickrud> eFoX, use 32 bit if you want flash & non-free movies to play
[04:25] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, see if it actually works... maybe something is physically not working
[04:25] <gavagai> i am trying to use wondershaper but even with sane values it seems to be restricting the bandwidth way too much.  anyone familiar with wondershaper?
[04:26] <intelikey> N9URK sources.list
[04:26] <Manderson> harry - it doesn't filter to one? How many does it filter to?
[04:26] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: ok
[04:26] <eFoX> nickrud: what does "non free movies" mean ?
[04:26] <chadder> Is there a way I can setup a 'shared folder' between Ubuntu on VMware and WindowsXP ?
[04:26] <alagran> intelkey: It doesn't show gkrellm when I do apt-cache grkrellm
[04:26] <harry> Manderson: nothing shows up
[04:26] <dou213> to install a .rpm file : "sudo alien -k filename.rpm"?
[04:26] <alagran> intelikey: It doesn't show gkrellm when I do apt-cache grkrellm
[04:26] <nickrud> eFoX, um, wmv, that type of thing.
[04:26] <N9URK> intelikey: did it not get that when I did "apt-get upgrade"
[04:27] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: Did you break?
[04:27] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea we tried that earleir, but couldn't get anything
[04:27] <jighead> alagran, apt-cache search gkrellm or aptitude search gkrellm
[04:27] <animato> hello, can i use kopete on gnome?
[04:27] <thoreauputic> chadder: you want samba i think
[04:27] <pppoe_dude> animato, sure
[04:27] <intelikey> alagran apt-cache search gkrel
[04:27] <animato> is it a safe go?
[04:27] <eFoX> nickrud: lol..on linux do you have to "pay" to get those codecs or something ? and on 64bit its free ? im soo confused
[04:27] <animato> i mean, doesn't it have TOO MUCH dependencies on kde?
[04:28] <pppoe_dude> animato, just kde libs
[04:28] <nickrud> eFoX, no, you can get them for 32bit, not for 64bit
[04:28] <animato> oh really? kewl! thanx
[04:28] <chakra85> eFox, i found that usually when people say non free they mean non open source
[04:28] <Manderson> anyone know what's going on with harry's synaptic?
[04:28] <apokryphos> animato: I think it's 17 megs
[04:28] <eFoX> nickrud: ah gotcha
[04:28] <eFoX> 32 it is
[04:28] <thoreauputic> animato: what's your definition of "too much" ?
[04:28] <eFoX> thanks
[04:28] <pppoe_dude> animato, and some other minor ones
[04:28] <animato> i wanna use gnome, and kopete's the only kde app i wanna use
[04:28] <alagran> intelikey: that doesn't show ethier
[04:28] <animato> i mean, i don't wanna use kde just for kopete
[04:28] <intelikey> N9URK the reason it asked for the cd ?    because the cd is listed in the sources.list .    sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list   and comment out the cd.  then apt-get update.
[04:28] <||arifaX> thoreauputic, will check
[04:28] <alagran> jighead: sorry that doesn't show gkrellm
[04:28] <pppoe_dude> animato, run "apt-cache showpkg kopete" to see a list of dependancies, or apt-get intall kopete to see which ones you actually need
[04:28] <intelikey> alagran then you need the repos
[04:29] <intelikey> !tell alagran about repos
[04:29] <N9URK> intelikey: that makes sense, should have seen that one a mile away
[04:29] <animato> thanx :-3
[04:29] <jighead> alagran, you need to enable universe
[04:29] <thoreauputic> ||arifaX: the equivalents would be $1 $2 etc I think if I understood you
[04:29] <chadder> Does Ubuntu run GNOME or KDE ?
[04:29] <chadder> or.. how can I find out?
[04:29] <jae686> Ubuntu Runs GNome
[04:29] <stevekl> chadder: ubuntu is gnome, kubuntu is KDE
[04:29] <chakra85> chadder, kubuntu runs kde
[04:29] <Madpilot> chadder, Ubuntu runs Gnome; Kubuntu runs KDE; Xubuntu runs XFCE
[04:30] <chadder> hah :D
[04:30] <jae686> but you can install what ever you want
[04:30] <stevekl> chadder: BUt you can install either and run any WM you want
[04:30] <alagran> jighead: how do I enable universe?
[04:30] <chakra85> chadder, but you can switch by installing kde_destop
[04:30] <thoreauputic> chadder: you can add the others if you wish
[04:30] <stevekl> That said, I wouldn't reccomend using anything but gnome or KDE :)
[04:30] <apokryphos> chadder: more information in the FAQ
[04:30] <intelikey> alagran read the mp from the bot
[04:30] <eFoX> crap :S i lost my 32bit cd...
[04:30] <stevekl> or XFCE
[04:30] <pppoe_dude> ChakRa, chadder kubuntu-desktop
[04:30] <jae686> you can even put e17 on it
[04:30] <qmf> is there way to get the super_l and super_r to work as shotcut mods like ctrl/alt/shift ?
[04:30] <thoreauputic> chakra85: umm - kubuntu-desktop
[04:30] <stevekl> I SAID OR XFCE DON'T FLAME ME
[04:30] <intelikey> alagran you are not paying attention
[04:30] <N9URK> does anyone here use sudo bash instead of continually typing sudo command ?
[04:30] <pppoe_dude> oops chakra85 not ChakRa
[04:30] <thoreauputic> !CAPS
[04:30] <ubotu> FYI, typing in ALL CAPS is considered to be 'yelling', and therefore rude behaviour.
[04:30] <stevekl> N9URK: use sudo -s
[04:30] <apokryphos> stevekl: chilld winston!
[04:31] <chakra85> thoreauputic, oops
[04:31] <Madpilot> N9URK, I've used sudo -i sometimes - it's supposed to be better than sudo bash
[04:31] <jighead> alagran, read the message from ubotu about repos, it has a web site that will help you edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[04:31] <stevekl> N9URK: sudo -s will ask you for your user's password but it will give you a continuous root shell until you type 'exit'. It's very useful
[04:31] <intelikey> N9URK or sudo su -
[04:31] <apokryphos> Madpilot: it is; it more approprtiately sets up the environment.
[04:31] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea the ping stalls
[04:31] <apokryphos> intelikey: no, sudo -i is to be preferred
[04:32] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: and then Destination host unreachable over and over
[04:32] <stevekl> What does sudo -i do?
[04:32] <intelikey> apokryphos for what cause ?
[04:32] <alagran> jighead: I see I'll look at that.  Thanks!
[04:32] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, is your router setup to be 192.168.0.1?
[04:32] <apokryphos> stevekl, intelikey: man sudo
[04:32] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yep
[04:32] <stevekl> Oh come on just tell us
[04:32] <planetcall> goodmorning all
[04:32] <thoreauputic> stevekl: gives you a  full root environment and dumps you in /root
[04:32] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, did you setup your IP to be 192.168.0.x?
[04:32] <intelikey> apokryphos that's not an answer
[04:32] <N9URK> guten morgen planetcall
[04:32] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yep
[04:32] <apokryphos> stevekl: oh come on don't be lazy
[04:33] <apokryphos> intelikey: yes it is, read what the option does.
[04:33] <intelikey> i know what sudo -i does   i also know what sudo su -  does
[04:33] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, looks like a problem with the cables, router configuration or other physical problem
[04:33] <apokryphos> geez, people can't even read man pages anymore
[04:33] <mister_roboto> stevekl: it really will help you in the long run to get into the habit of using "man". seriously :)
[04:33] <daqing> does anyone use  sis660 ?
[04:33] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: well the thing is
[04:33] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: we took the same cable and plugged it to a laptop and it worked
[04:33] <apokryphos> in #debian 98% of answers are man <command>, in here you get shot for saying it once. Geez.
[04:33] <chakra85> daqing, as in a graphics card?
[04:33] <daqing> yes
[04:33] <nickrud> bang!
[04:33] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, then probably a problem with the interface
[04:33] <chakra85> daqing, SiS makes my motherboard
[04:33] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, maybe the plug isnt fitting too tight?
[04:33] <daqing> sorry for my english
[04:33] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: we changed the ethernet card and it still didn't work
[04:34] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, oh you did..
[04:34] <intelikey> apokryphos if you are going to correct me.  then at least do it right.   if you think there is a differance in the two commands, tell me what it is.
[04:34] <apokryphos> nickrud: it was but a flesh wound, nevermind!
[04:34] <chakra85> daqing, but I have an SiS630
[04:34] <nickrud> apokryphos, I am well trained ;)
[04:34] <apokryphos> intelikey: I did, I told you exactly where to look to find out. Don't be lazy.
[04:34] <thoreauputic> intelikey: relax, it isn't a competition
[04:34] <chakra85> daqing, what about it?
[04:34] <stevekl> Ok, favorite irc client that isn't irssi: GO
[04:34] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: so the problem must be in the motherbord or something?
[04:34] <daqing> chakra85, i want to know if i need some configuration about it
[04:34] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, is there any way you can paste /etc/network/interfaces and sudo ifconfig -a in a pastebin?
[04:34] <gbutler69> Anyone know why MP3 support no longer works on Dapper Drake for RhythmBox???
[04:34] <apokryphos> stevekl: kvirc, w00t.
[04:35] <apokryphos> gbutler69: have you read the faq?
[04:35] <thoreauputic> stevekl:  --->> #ubuntu-offtopic  ;)
[04:35] <chakra85> daqing, as in, before you install ubuntu? no... mine ran fine out of the box
[04:35] <thoreauputic> for app wars...
[04:35] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: ouch, not really
[04:35] <mister_roboto> stevekl: i've grown to like konversation. wish you could detach tabs into separate windows though
[04:35] <gbutler69> Which FAQ?
[04:35] <lwizardl> has anyone ever found an iso images with a .daa filename
[04:35] <apokryphos> gbutler69: the one in the channel topic.
[04:35] <daqing> chakra85:no,after installed the ubuntu
[04:35] <nickrud> !tell gbutler69 about mp3
[04:35] <planetcall> lwizardl, yeah
[04:35] <chakra85> daqing, i didn't for my card
[04:35] <gbutler69> Sorry....missed that....I'll check it....Thanks...
[04:36] <Draconicus> IcemanV9: I have a solution! GMAIL! gmail works, and she can use it. :D
[04:36] <chakra85> daqing, have you already installed ubuntu?
[04:36] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, try "sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces.bak" then,,.
[04:36] <lwizardl> planetcall, does any app in linux support them ?
[04:36] <daqing>  chakra85:yeah, but it seems no comfortable
[04:36] <mcpowley> what is the best library based music player for gnome?
[04:37] <chakra85> daqing, oh...in that case i don't know... mine worked fine the first time i ran it. and i'm pretty new at this too.
[04:37] <daqing> chakra85:when i drag the window, it moves slowly
[04:37] <thoreauputic> mcpowley: matter of opinion - I like quodlibet
[04:37] <intelikey> thoreauputic "<apokryphos> intelikey: no, sudo -i is to be preferred"    prefered over   sudo su -      ?    and the jackass maintains that there is some reason....   but wont answer when i ask what reason....   i know it's not a competition.    just don't like being told i'm wrong and then snubed.  that's all.
[04:37] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: ok
[04:37] <chakra85> daqing, maybe someone else can help?
[04:37] <apokryphos> mcpowley: well if you mean the best GTK-based one, then I'd say Banshee.
[04:37] <higen> is there any way of chaning keyboard layout for a single terminal screen? (gterminal)
[04:37] <daqing> chakra85:i am new too.thanks anyway
[04:37] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, echo "auto eth0" > /etc/network/interfaces && echo "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[04:37] <chakra85> daqing, np
[04:37] <thoreauputic> intelikey: sudo -i, as I understand it, gives a full root environment correctly
[04:38] <pppoe_dude> oops last one should be  && echo "iface eth0 inet dhcp" >> /etc/network/interfaces
[04:38] <intelikey> so does su -    like duh
[04:38] <intelikey> ?
[04:38] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ^^
[04:38] <apokryphos> intelikey: do you want to remain in this channel?
[04:38] <amiel> has anybody here installed ubuntu on an external HD on a powerbook?
[04:38] <nickrud> intelikey, go to each env, to env ><file> in env, and diff them
[04:38] <swim> how about this is there anything I can use to create a bootable iso file?
[04:38] <amiel> or know anything about it?
[04:38] <thoreauputic> intelikey: but save the flames for someone other than apokryphos , who has been a good contributor for a long time
[04:38] <intelikey> apokryphos not with you!
[04:39] <apokryphos> /msg chanserv op #ubuntu apokryphos
[04:39] <planetcall> lwizardl, thats a proprietary format. I guess you wont find it in repos.
[04:39] <apokryphos> ack
[04:39] <Madpilot> apokryphos, ?
[04:39] <thoreauputic> apokryphos: he left :)
[04:39] <apokryphos> yup, I saw
[04:39] <lwizardl> planetcall, i was told that alcohol 120% in windows can handle the image but i don't use any version of windows
[04:40] <eFoX> is it possible to run two different wifi cards (one internal and one external) at the same time ?
[04:40] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: missing "> /etc/network/interfaces" at the end of the line before?
[04:40] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ya i sent another message below it
[04:40] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, its actually >>
[04:40] <eFoX> i want one card to work normally, and the other to monitor packets..possible ?
[04:40] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: oh really
[04:40] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: is it also >> for the first part?
[04:40] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, echo "auto eth0" > /etc/network/interfaces && echo "iface eth0 inet dhcp">> /etc/network/interfaces
[04:40] <chakra85> is anyone here familiar with apache?
[04:40] <planetcall> lwizardl, you will find some software for sure which handles daa on linux (ubuntu)
[04:41] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, no
[04:41] <amiel> eFoX, I'm sure it's possible, but I cannot offer any help, sorry
[04:41] <amiel> chakra85: a little
[04:41] <amiel> chakra85: whats up?
[04:41] <chakra85> amiel, do you know how to enable / what is mod_rewrite?
[04:42] <chakra85> amiel, i'm installed gallery and it suggests i have that enabled
[04:42] <gbutler69> Hmmm.....I checked the FAQ....and yes, I've enabled Universe, Multiverse, and Installed "gstreamer-ugly-.....". This was all working  before. I've been using Dapper since about February.....MP3 Stream playback in RB was working GREAT!
[04:42] <fiveiron> ugh.. so lets say i was trying to get Xgl working and it didnt and now my regular X only does 640x480... what are my options for getting back to the default config?  can I just do X -configure? or is there a different way ubuntu comes up with the default xorg.conf?
[04:42] <gbutler69> About 2 weeks ago....it stopped working :(
[04:42] <Lorri> what's the animation when you click firefox and a blue border extends the length of the desktop
[04:42] <chakra85> amiel, it actually says i have to rebuild apache... but i'm not sure if i'm comfortable enough to do that
[04:42] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, then do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[04:42] <Lorri> it's extremely slow for me and I would like to disable it
[04:42] <amiel> chakra85: hmmm, its hard to explain
[04:42] <gbutler69> I've been letting everything UPDATE whenever recommended.....
[04:42] <jighead> swim, Places->CD/DVD creator, add your files, then choose write to file instead of buringing it to disk, mkisofs is the command behind that gui if you want to get your hands dirty
[04:42] <amiel> what says you have to rebuild apache?
[04:42] <mcpowley> Agh...I keep on pressing Shift+Backspace by accident...can I disable that restarting my computer?
[04:43] <N9URK> anyone know what this means?  I was apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and got this error "SyntaxError: EOF while scannign triple-quoted string
[04:43] <N9URK> "
[04:43] <gavagai> i am trying to install wondershaper on my ubuntu box.  it's not my router, it is behind a router, but i need to cap its bandwidth because proftpd is killing my network.  i used 'sudo wondershaper 1200 200' but now if i try to ftp within my lan i get like 30kbps.  what's up?
[04:43] <chakra85> amiel, gallery (http://gallery.menalto.com/) in order to enable mod_rewrite (--enable-module=rewrite)
[04:43] <fiveiron> ugh.. so lets say i was trying to get Xgl working and it didnt and now my regular X only does 640x480... what are my options for getting back to the default config?  can I just do X -configure? or is there a different way ubuntu comes up with the default xorg.conf?
[04:44] <pppoe_dude> fiveiron, do 'dpkg-reconfigure x-server'
[04:44] <fiveiron> thanks!!
[04:44] <pppoe_dude> oops no dash there fiveiron
[04:44] <chakra85> amiel, when i installed apache i just used: "sudo get-apt install apache2" and just let it go
[04:44] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: apparently pemission was denied for the echo line
[04:44] <N9URK> it gives that error and then says "compiling ~/stats.py" and then some other things then it goes back to the error (wash, rinse, repeat)
[04:44] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: even with sudo
[04:44] <amiel> oh, gallery would need mod_rewrite, and I don't suppose that you need to know what it is, just how to rebuild apache
[04:44] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, are you on live CD now?
[04:45] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: touch /etc/network/interfaces maybe?
[04:45] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: no
[04:45] <chakra85> amiel, haha, yeah that pretty much sums it up
[04:45] <nickrud> fiveiron, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:45] <amiel> chakra85: try apt-cache search rewrite
[04:45] <KuLover> Is there a delete command?
[04:45] <chakra85> amiel, or if i should even attempt it considering i just started using linux last week
[04:45] <chakra85> amiel, ok
[04:45] <amiel> er... sudo above
[04:45] <gbutler69> So, anyone know why MP3 Stream playback in RB is now not working on Dapper when it was working before? I have all the relevant stuff installed. Yes, I've read the FAQ. Is this a well-known problem or something unique to me?????
[04:45] <nickrud> KuLover, rm (remove)
[04:46] <KuLover> thanks nickrud
[04:46] <pppoe_dude> fiveiron, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:46] <chakra85> amiel, so the top two results were apache2 and apache2-common
[04:46] <amiel> chakra85: apt-cache will search for packages, you can also search within the Package Manager
[04:46] <mister_roboto> iratsu: did you "sudo" both echo commands?  you are doing two separate echo's there   sudo echo ... && sudo echo ...
[04:46] <nickrud> gbutler69, probably unique to you ;) you have gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly installed?
[04:46] <N9URK> thoreauputic: do you know what that error means?
[04:46] <jrib> gbutler69: are you getting an error?
[04:46] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, hrmm... did you move the file first?
[04:46] <chakra85> amiel, the rest of the results are (i think) unrelated to apache
[04:47] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, you can try touch
[04:47] <iratsu> mister_roboto: good point
[04:47] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea he did move the file
[04:47] <amiel> chakra85: I'm sorry, Im not on an ubuntu box at the moment... hold on
[04:47] <gort> does anyone have "shimmery" fonts?  after doing a fresh install of 6.06  my fonts seem to "wiggle" a bit
[04:47] <PetrolBomb> pppoe
[04:48] <PetrolBomb> Oh nvm
[04:48] <gort> the refresh is spot-on for the lcd.  but the fonts are crappy, especially in the terminal
[04:48] <PetrolBomb> !
[04:48] <gbutler69> nickrud: Yes, I have "gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly" installed. It WAS working great for last couple of months. Now....Kaput!
[04:48] <ubotu> PetrolBomb: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> PetrolBomb, install seahorse
[04:48] <dou213_> hey guys, i've tried installing a .deb app.. "dpkg -i vmware-workstation.deb" .. it returns me an error: "trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/vm-support', which is also in package vmware-player .......  dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)"
[04:48] <jighead> gorski_, System->Preferences->Fonts hit Details at the bottom and play with the sub-pixel-rendering options
[04:48] <N9URK> How do I get it to break out of a loop during the install?
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> PetrolBomb, or gpgp
[04:48] <N9URK> Someone must know something
[04:48] <jighead> not gorski_ gort
[04:49] <pppoe_dude> PetrolBomb, you can also just use GPG with symmetric cyphers if you want
[04:49] <gort> jighead> did you have this issue as well?
[04:49] <mister_roboto> dou213: what about removing vmware-player first?
[04:49] <chakra85> amiel, as far as i can tell apache2-common (web search + synaptic) is an add on to apache2-mpm-*
[04:49] <pppoe_dude> lol
[04:49] <jighead> gort no, but i did fiddle with it to see what it did
[04:49] <dou213_> aham... okaz, but then won't vmplayer work or not? i'll give it a try now
[04:49] <nickrud> gbutler69, hm, I'm not much of a sound guru, but do you have sound otherwise?
[04:50] <gbutler69> Yes.....OGG playback etc works fine.....
[04:50] <mister_roboto> dou213: why do you need just the player if you have workstation?
[04:50] <dou213_> mister_roboto, you have a point
[04:50] <riddlebox> I am trying to get an app to run when I boot, I have put the executable in /etc/init.d and then did update-rc.d asterisk defaults, but when I boot it does not start?
[04:50] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: weird... it says there's no interfaces file anymore
[04:50] <chakra85> amiel, and i don't have an multiprocessor machine
[04:50] <N9URK> I guess not
[04:50] <mcpowley> there was a lot of hype on the ubuntu forums about a library based mp3 player...was that banshee?
[04:51] <glick> excuse me is there a tone generator for linux where i can play or create a certain tone?
[04:52] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, hrmm you also need echo "auto lo">> /etc/network/interfaces && echo "iface lo inet loopback" >> /etc/network/interfaces
[04:52] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: ok
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, if the file exists now, try restarting networking then ifup/ifdown eth0
[04:53] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: actually, no he's still having trouble putting stuff in the file
[04:53] <glick> anyone?
[04:53] <eugman> Is having agpg key of any use if I'm not connected to a web of trust?
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, Oh,
[04:53] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: permission denied just doing "sudo echo "auto eth0" > /etc/network/interfaces"
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, are you sure you are not running LIVECD?
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, is / mounted read-write?
[04:53] <amiel> anyone correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe that mpm has to do with multiple processors
[04:53] <pkh> iratsu, I've noticed similar things...
[04:54] <KOI> hi ubunutu users
[04:54] <scud> network-manager-vpnc rocks
[04:54] <KOI> im a newbie baby
[04:54] <ChipButty> Each time I run the Ubuntu CD (Dapper Drake), either to use live or try to install it on my iBook G3, the screen is split. The upper and lower halves are reversed so I can't do anything. Any ideas how to sort this problem out. I really want to install and run this on my iBook.
[04:54] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: how to check if / is mounted read-write?
[04:54] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: /etc/fstab ?
[04:55] <chakra85> amiel, it says Multi-Processing Module (MPM), so i guess it could mean something else
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> iratsu,  mount command will show ya
[04:55] <iratsu> pkh: really, where?
[04:55] <KOI> exit
[04:55] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ya, if it says read-write for /, then try doing sudo mount
[04:55] <malegria> using ant i get "Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-4 .1-1.4.2.0/lib/tools.jar"    --> ideas?
[04:55] <amiel> meaning... how apache processes its children, etc
[04:55] <pkh> I was trying to change the acpi state config using a similar 'sudo echo ...' and it failed with the same no permission error...
[04:56] <chakra85> amiel, oh
[04:56] <pkh> also when I was trying to fool around with testing some stuff with the parallel port
[04:56] <nnod> i've got dapper running and i compiled my own kernel (2.6.16.20). now the features of gnome-volume-manager (e.g. automount) don't work. hald appears to be working because when i plug something in it shoots off a process called hal-addon-storage. anyone know what is wrong?
[04:56] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, try cat /etc/mtab |grep hdx
[04:56] <amiel> chakra85: have you seen this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-7304.html
[04:56] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, where hdx is your / directory
[04:56] <cr1stobal> any idea how to diagnose/fix a thinkpad that is freezing?  I have to use the power button to shutdown/restart my computer... but don't know what the issue is
[04:56] <amiel> chakra85: I think that might be what you are looking for
[04:56] <mister_roboto> malegria: i'm not sure but maybe it needs to have JAVA_HOME env set and it's not?
[04:56] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, or / partition rather
[04:56] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea mount says rw
[04:56] <glick> hey can i just access the sound device as a regular user?
[04:56] <glick> /dev/dsp?
[04:57] <chakra85> amiel, please don't tell me you found that just by googling apache and mod_rewrite...
[04:57] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, does the file exist?
[04:57] <malegria> mister_roboto: might be. how do i find out the java path that should be JAVA_HOME?
[04:57] <pkh> cr1stobal, i'd be trying memtest86, then try running a lot of stuff without X, if that works, it's X-related...   If any of that fails then you've probably got faulty hardware.
[04:57] <amiel> chakra85: true nuf. actually, I used one important keyword that you are missing: ubuntu
[04:57] <N9URK> can anyone help me as to why "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" is not working?
[04:57] <cr1stobal> hmmmm.... thanks   probably not faulty hardware as this never happened before upgrading to dapper
[04:57] <mister_roboto> malegria: it should be the root of your sdk.   above lib, bin, etc...
[04:58] <malegria> mister_roboto: sdk?
[04:58] <chakra85> amiel, haha. ok you've put my search skills to shame. thanks though.
[04:58] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, try chmod +rw /etc/network/interfaces
[04:58] <glick> how can i generate a specific tone on my speaker?\
[04:58] <rgriffin> hey guys, are there any sys req for the new ubuntu?
[04:58] <winbond> can anyone tell me how has the 64bit drivers changed from the 32bit?  or have they pretty much stayed the same, how was it designed to work on 64bit?
[04:58] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, with sudo
[04:58] <rgriffin> i'm trying to get it working on an old compaq
[04:58] <amiel> chakra85: ubuntu (like everyone else) has their own way of doing things
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> glick,  i recall a beep command some ages ago that could do different tones.
[04:58] <mister_roboto> malegria: you sure you wanna be running ant?   :)     the sdk is the java distribution that has javac, jar, javah and all the other developer tools, not just the runtime  (software development kit)
[04:59] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: no, the file doesn't exist
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> glick,  it was for the internal speaker I think.
[04:59] <amiel> chakra85: also try: http://www.joahua.com/blog/2005/03/06/ubuntu-apache-and-making-mod_rewrite-happy
[04:59] <amiel> for more info
[04:59] <malegria> mister_roboto: sorry, i'm new to it but wanna try a java based cms locally.
[04:59] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, cd /etc/network THEN...,
[04:59] <rigonatti> Does anyone know where can i get a walktrough to install Wine in Ubuntu ?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> !wine
[04:59] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[05:00] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: perhaps using a text editor would be faster =)
[05:00] <amiel> chakra85: info on mpm, even though I know you probably don't care: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mpm.html
[05:00] <pkh> I want to run some windows software that's not working in wine 0.9.9 -- is there a way I can help push through the later versions of wine by helping with building an installer???
[05:00] <mister_roboto> malegria:  "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2sdk<whatever>"
[05:00] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, sudo gedit interfaces :P
[05:00] <malegria> mister_roboto: is kaffe an sdk?
[05:00] <Sivik> pkh: what are you trying to run?
[05:00] <mister_roboto> malegria: they do have the compiler and tools, yes
[05:01] <mister_roboto> malegria: errr... i better say i THINK they do.
[05:01] <pkh> it's an inhouse thing.  has problems in wine 0.9.9 and one of my co-workers (using gentoo) said he had more success on a later compiled build.
[05:01] <mister_roboto> malegria: never used it
[05:01] <malegria> mister_roboto: ok
[05:01] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: auto eth0; iface eth0 inet dhcp; auto lo; iface lo inet loopback, right?
[05:01] <mister_roboto> malegria: to be honest, i just use the sun jdk to avoid problems with stuff that isn't implemented
[05:01] <dsewnr_> Does somebody know which editor can plblish through FTP in Ubuntu? Just like "Ultraedit" in Windows.
[05:01] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, then add the following lines http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15742
[05:01] <chakra85> amiel, thanks. i'm trying to learn about linux, so i might as well read whatever i can get my hands on right?
[05:01] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ya or that
[05:01] <N9URK> did anyone have any problems installing ubuntu-desktop?
[05:02] <Madpilot> dsewnr, Bluefish & Screem both can
[05:02] <malegria> mister_roboto: but you dont know how i can find the exact path? in /usr/lib there is nothing like that.
[05:02] <amiel> chakra85: for one week, you are doing well. keep up the good work, you will go far
[05:02] <mister_roboto> malegria: oh...  what is under /usr/lib/jvm?
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> N9URK,  ive heard of none. clarify the 'problems'
[05:02] <dsewnr_> Madpilot: Thx : )
[05:02] <Madpilot> dsewnr_, so can gedit, if you mount your FTP link thru Nautilus
[05:02] <N9URK> I keep getting this error "SyntaxError: EOF while scanning triple-quoted string"
[05:03] <malegria> mister_roboto: ah, ok. there is a subfolder java-1.4.2-gcj-4.1-1.4.2.0
[05:03] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15743
[05:03] <malegria> mister_roboto: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-4.1-1.4.2.0
[05:03] <N9URK> then it loops through some stuff too quickly to read and then comes back to the error time and time and time again Dr_Willis
[05:03] <dsewnr_> Madpilot: OK, I'll try it. Thx a lot : )
[05:03] <hanasaki> do the forums and launchpad share id/pass?
[05:03] <rigonatti> Does anyone use DCPP (DC++) here ? i Got error after install with Automatix
[05:03] <mister_roboto> ok, set it to that dir
[05:03] <Madpilot> hanasaki, no. The wiki & lp do, though
[05:03] <mister_roboto> malegria: set it to that directory
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> N9URK,  you mean apt-get scrolls messages by too fast to read?
[05:04] <mister_roboto> malegria: under there, you find "lib/tools.jar" right?
[05:04] <N9URK> it keeps going back to that error message
[05:04] <_sojourner> whats the config file for panels ?
[05:04] <hanasaki> maddler: i cant create an id on forums becuaes the email / id is in use... but when i tell it to send me the password it says my chosen email is not having an id on forums
[05:04] <malegria> misfit_toy: nope...
[05:05] <rigonatti> why the command line -- wget http://thepiratecove.org/files/wine-0.9.15_wow_i386.deb   -- to get wine return a permission error ?
[05:05] <malegria> mister_roboto: oops wrong user.
[05:05] <malegria> mister_roboto: noper
[05:05] <hanasaki> is there an ubuntu listserv?
[05:06] <N9URK> Do you not know Dr_Willis
[05:06] <N9URK> ?
[05:06] <mister_roboto> malegria: sounds like you only have a jre installed (just the runtime).   is there a "bin/javac"?
[05:06] <malegria> mister_roboto: no
[05:06] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: hmm, it should be eth1 instead of eth0, right?
[05:06] <Madpilot> hanasaki, lists.ubuntu.com - I've no idea who to contact for ubuntuforum problems, though
[05:06] <rigonatti> #joing DCpp
[05:06] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, no
[05:07] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, try it this way first
[05:07] <mister_roboto> malegria: ok, you don't have the sdk so you're not gonna get Ant to build anything for you.
[05:07] <rigonatti> Does anyone use DCPP (DC++) here ? i Got error after install with Automatix
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> N9URK,  you aint being very clear. hit Ctrl-S to pause the messagea perhaps.
[05:07] <malegria> mister_roboto: --> install jdk?
[05:07] <mister_roboto> malegria: yes
[05:07] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: well this results in Error while getting interface, no such device
[05:07] <hanasaki> Madpilot: lol well.. if you click on the link to contact the admin.. it says you have to be logged in.. quite a delema if you are contacting the admin about loggin
[05:07] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, ok then try it with eth1 :P
[05:07] <N9URK> Dr_Willis.  How am I not being clear?
[05:07] <Madpilot> hanasaki, meh... not cool
[05:07] <malegria> mister_roboto: ok, thanks
[05:08] <hanasaki> hire me as a destructive tester
[05:08] <Ackeubu_> hey
[05:08] <rob138> if i have never set "su" password, what is it?
[05:08] <mister_roboto> malegria: i keep saying sdk but i mean jdk  :)
[05:08] <spikeb> it's not, rob138
[05:08] <Madpilot> rob138, there isn't one by default. use 'sudo' & your own user password
[05:08] <spikeb> !tell rob138 about root
[05:08] <pppoe_dude> rob, root account is disabled by default
[05:08] <thoreauputic> !tell rob138 about root
[05:08] <BioVorE> N9URK: whats the error apt throwing?
[05:08] <Ackeubu_> im trying to watch a movie with xine. the sound is good. but video is bad. it kindof plays laggy. im watching a rented DVD!
[05:08] <N9URK> [23:02]  <N9URK> I keep getting this error "SyntaxError: EOF while scanning triple-quoted string"
[05:08] <eugman> Is there a way to save to a hidden folder with firefox?
[05:09] <rob138> okay, so what should i do, if i am runing the WineCVS script, and it wants to install through root?
[05:09] <pppoe_dude> eugman, right click and choose "show hidden files"
[05:09] <eugman> Doesn't work.
[05:09] <thoreauputic> eugman: hit ctrl-L in the save dialog and type the full path
[05:09] <N9URK> Dr_Willis it is now stopped with the message" Procesing halted because there were too many errors"
[05:09] <babo> guys, how do I find out the col and row size of my screen ?
[05:09] <BioVorE> N9URK: hmm intressting.. your /etc/apt/source.list correct..  also try a apt-get update and try again
[05:09] <pppoe_dude> eugman, right click inside "browse other location"
[05:09] <thoreauputic> eugman: or what pppoe_dude said
[05:10] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell Ackeubu_ about dvd
[05:10] <N9URK> I did apt-get update immediatly prior to the install
[05:10] <mister_roboto> babo: are you running X?
[05:10] <winbond> can anyone tell me how has the 64bit drivers changed from the 32bit?  or have they pretty much stayed the same, how was it designed to work on 64bit?
[05:10] <babo> mister_roboto: yes
[05:10] <mister_roboto> babo: there is no such thing as row and col size of your screen then
[05:11] <mister_roboto> babo: unless you mean the resolution in pixels?
[05:11] <capgadget> babo if you are not sure run kruler if you have kubuntu installed.
[05:11] <Madpilot> Anyone ever played Termulous on Ubuntu?
[05:11] <BioVorE> N9URK: well there is a database apt builds from that information.. it looks lke that could be messed up.. re turnning apt-get update will refresh the local database with that of the internet server..  apt-get upgrade dose the upgrades
[05:11] <gavagai> does anyone know of an ftp server that can actually limit its own bandwidth?
[05:11] <gavagai> i know proftpd claims to do this, but it works terribly
[05:11] <babo> it's ok, I got it ... stty -a
[05:11] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: same thing as before
[05:12] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: no DHCPOFFERS  received
[05:12] <mister_roboto> babo: that's the size of a terminal window on an xterm, not the size of your "screen"  :)
[05:12] <capgadget> stty -a is just your xterm dimensions
[05:12] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, :( i am thinking maybe network card is busted
[05:12] <babo> mister_roboto: ah, ok thanks :-)
[05:12] <N9URK> BioVorE: is there something I am missing?  I ran apt-get upgrade just before the install.
[05:12] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yea, but we tried 2 of them
[05:12] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: i doubt they'd both be busted
[05:12] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, or other physical thing
[05:12] <bennyp> Hello! I just completed a Dapper installation on my iBook. I'm having trouble using the airport extreme card, though.
[05:12] <babo> mister_roboto: emacs is all messed up when I access my remote server using it ...
[05:13] <mister_roboto> babo: depends on the font you're using, of course
[05:13] <bennyp> I'm able to connect to the network, but the ip address I get (dhcp) is bad
[05:13] <babo> I get spurious text and all that ...
[05:13] <Ackeubu_> Madpilot I have libdvdcss installed already
[05:13] <babo> mister_roboto: default font.
[05:13] <ardy> thoreauputic, hmm.. its not clear the cache in terminal
[05:13] <ardy> help how to clear my history typing on terminal ?
[05:13] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, unless you have weird settings on your router
[05:13] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, u said it was working before right?
[05:13] <mister_roboto> babo: what is the remote server?   you might try using the "resize" command once you connect to it
[05:13] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: yep
[05:13] <Madpilot> Ackeubu_, OK, was worth checking (and I couldn't remember the name of the damn libdvdcss package, so I let the bot do the work..)
[05:13] <charlesJacobs> I think my make is broken.. when I try to make oldconfig or make xconfig I get the error message "make: *** No rule to make target `xconfig'.  Stop." of course for make oldconfig replace 'xconfig' with 'oldconfig' in that error. any ideas?
[05:13] <pppoe_dude> iratsu, did u change anything?
[05:13] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: we didn't change the router setting
[05:14] <iratsu> pppoe_dude: it just kind of suddenly happened
[05:14] <Ackeubu_> madpilot eyah thanks. it doesnt help me very much. >)
[05:14] <babo> mister_roboto: the remote server is centos ...
[05:14] <BioVorE> N9URK: apt-get upgrade just updates you local list of what packages are avalible on the remote servers listed in /etc/apt/sources.list   when apt-get update gose out and downloads stuff from the web, what is grabs is a pckages.gz file thats just a text file that list all the packages and assorted info..
[05:14] <winbond> is there a way to mount a harddrive with a extended ntfs partition , or whatever you call the partition that is made from a running windows on a new harddrive
[05:15] <charlesJacobs> winbond: yep. look in to ntfsprogs
[05:15] <amiel> has anyone installed ubuntu on an external harddrive
[05:15] <amiel> ?
[05:15] <pppoe_dude> !ntfs
[05:15] <ubotu> to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe. <!winfstab>
[05:15] <mister_roboto> babo: sorry... don't know what's going wrong but it's easy to try "resize" just to see if it helps. it exports a couple of env variables to tell the other side how big your xterm is
[05:15] <N9URK> BioVorE: OK I get it. I am sorry.  Too much stress here.  I didn't see you had typed update
[05:15] <BioVorE> N9URK: np
[05:15] <Kman> hey gyts
[05:15] <BioVorE> <- KB3GTN
[05:15] <winbond> charlesJacobs: ok , ty
[05:15] <bennyp> nevermind, my airport problem is solved! woohoo!
[05:15] <N9URK> BioVorE:  looking closely is important ;)
[05:16] <babo> mister_roboto: unfortunately centos doesn't seem to have a resize command ...
[05:16] <mister_roboto> babo: <shrug>   good luck!  :)
[05:16] <clusty> i am trying to resize a NTFS partition for the first time. parted is working already for 30 min to free up the 80 GB at the end. is this normal?
[05:16] <charlesJacobs> for some reason I can't make xconfig. I get the error message "make: *** No rule to make target `xconfig'.  Stop." any ideas?
[05:16] <hikikomori> hi
[05:16] <charlesJacobs> hi
[05:16] <hikikomori> i just installed jre
[05:16] <gavagai> trying to get basic traffic shaping is really getting frustrating.  :(
[05:17] <hikikomori> but i cant see aplications made in java,
[05:17] <N9URK> BioVorE: you do Echolink, IRLP, or EQSO?
[05:17] <hikikomori> do anybody know why?
[05:17] <hikikomori> this is why i get
[05:17] <hikikomori> http://pastebin.com/709863
[05:17] <regeya> frickin frack.
[05:17] <BioVorE> N9URK: not really.. I linkin via repeaters like wa3nan
[05:18] <Madpilot> hikikomori, after installing the JRE, run "sudo update-alternatives --config java" in the terminal
[05:18] <hikikomori> ok
[05:18] <hikikomori> y que pongo?
[05:18] <BioVorE> N9URK: there is a linux version of echolink though
[05:18] <BioVorE> N9URK: works kinda crappy like though..
[05:18] <regeya> tried installing a cvs emacs build via checkinstall.  forgot to rename the emacs folder and put a version number on the build folder.  'make install' apparently REMOVES Makefile.in, and when I try to do a 'make install' it insists I do a 'make bootstrap' first, and the first thing it does is a 'make clean'
[05:18] <N9URK> Yeah, I administer *NC* Echolink conference server.
[05:18] <Madpilot> hikikomori, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java - scroll down to the "Selecting the default Java version" for more details
[05:19] <BioVorE> N9URK: you can run the windows version on wine though.
[05:19] <regeya> OK AFTER YEARS OF LINUX USE I'M TRYING TO LIKE EMACS AND I KEEP FINDING MORE THINGS I HATE ABOUT IT.
[05:19] <N9URK> I have not used the Linux version though BioVorE
[05:19] <hikikomori> madpilot
[05:19] <hikikomori> which one should i choose?
[05:19] <Madpilot> regeya, mind the ALL CAPS, please...
[05:19] <regeya> sorry.
[05:19] <Madpilot> hikikomori, one should have 'sun' or 'jre' in the name
[05:19] <mister_roboto> regeya: stick to "vi" and you'll be happier ;)
[05:19] <regeya> heh
[05:19] <hikikomori> i got 3 options
[05:20] <N9URK> How can I kill apt-get? BioVorE  IT is in this never ending loop then after about 10 minutes it finally kills its self. but I cannot kill it
[05:20] <nickrud> regeya, there's no need to learn another operating system
[05:20] <Madpilot> regeya, besides, nano or gedit are for sane people. emacs ain't. ;)
[05:20] <BioVorE> N9URK: ctrl-c send a program a sigterm and if that dosn't work.. try ctrl-z sigkill (or drop dead)
[05:20] <regeya> mister_roboto, I'm beginning to dig the do-anything-and-multi-platform aspect of emacs.  plus viper-mode makes it tolerable. ;-)
[05:21] <Madpilot> hikikomori, look for "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java" - or something else that's similar
[05:21] <BioVorE> N9URK: If that dosn't work as root run kill -9 PID   (you find the pid looking at ps ax)
[05:21] <hikikomori> it worked
[05:21] <mister_roboto> regeya: well to each his own. options are good :)   for editing, i forced myself to learn vi because it's ALWAYS there, no matter what unix box i go to
[05:21] <hikikomori> many thanx manipilot
[05:21] <N9URK> BioVorE:   ctl-c doesn't work   ctl-z suspends it.  then when I do kill -9 -1 it will kill it but when I run apt-get again it tells me to do dpkg --configure -a
[05:21] <hikikomori> thanx
[05:21] <hikikomori> :)
[05:21] <calisee> can anyone help me set the resolution in xorg.conf for my external monitor hooked up to my laptop?
[05:21] <Madpilot> hikikomori, np
[05:21] <BioVorE> hikikomori:
[05:21] <charlesJacobs> for some reason I can't make menuconfig. I get the error message "make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'.  Stop." any ideas?
[05:21] <regeya> to be more blunt, I was building emacs from source for a.) gtk+ compatibility and b.) planner-mode refused to work on the ubuntu build for mysterious reasons
[05:22] <BioVorE> N9URK: Might be something with filelocking..  Hard to tell from here
[05:22] <N9URK> got it
[05:22] <N9URK> BioVorE: kill-9 PID did it
[05:22] <BioVorE> N9URK: ah ok..
[05:22] <regeya> mister_roboto, I forced myself to bash my head against a wall because while a book or TV may not always be available I can almost always count on walls
[05:22] <winbond> ok , so i connected my ntfs harddrive, and i can see a drive icon for it but when i go to mount it sais hd1 doesnt exist but in terminal it shows it as hd: not hd1:
[05:23] <regeya> plus, viper-mode == vi mode basically ;-)
[05:23] <hikikomori> :P
[05:23] <calisee> can anyone help me set the resolution in xorg.conf for my external monitor hooked up to my laptop?
[05:23] <N9URK> BioVorE: it is telling me now dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg~blah~' to correct the problem
[05:23] <regeya> whelp just thought I'd share my pain...hasta all
[05:23] <regeya> (go ahead make the 'bot abuse me for the one non-english word in that sentence)
[05:23] <BioVorE> N9URK: yeah.. dirty lock file and stuff
[05:23] <mister_roboto> regeya: lol.  the beauty of vi is that your fingers get to stay on the home row so it's very fast to use for a  touch typist. but i understand why a lot of folks hate it. i did too at first.
[05:24] <BioVorE> N9URK: what speed computer?
[05:24] <regeya> mister_roboto, you may have missed the bit about me forcing myself to like emacs these days...what do you think I've been using since 1997? :-P
[05:24] <N9URK> 1.8 G
[05:24] <N9URK> BioVorE 1.8G
[05:24] <regeya> tip:  vi commands DO NOT work in QuarkXPress, if you ever plan to work in print
[05:24] <mister_roboto> regeya:  hah... point taken
[05:25] <BioVorE> N9URK: yeah.. that shouldn't be cranking alot on apt things
[05:25] <regeya> I do that a lot...just start using vi commands in random apps.
[05:25] <DonL> Hi
[05:25] <mister_roboto> regeya: i even do it in eclipse!
[05:25] <N9URK> see it is going in an endless loop to this stupid error message
[05:25] <regeya> it's embarrassing when you're trying to figure out why everything you type in a textbox starts with 'i'
[05:25] <gavagai> what ftp server is recommended besides proftpd?
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> gavagai,  i think the use of ssh to replace the ftp server would be recommended. :)
[05:25] <N9URK> BioVorE and it goes and goes and goes and then after about 10 minutes of looping it then ends.  But  I cannot get it to kill myself
[05:26] <gavagai> Dr_Willis, yes but that is not what i need for this purpose
[05:26] <BioVorE> N9URK: apt-get is a perl script I believe (might be pythong)  IT just parses a text file to get information to download a file then run dpkg -i
[05:26] <gavagai> the users are idiots they are not going to be using ssh
[05:26] <DonL> I screwed up by installing RealPlayer from a binary, and it doesn't work, and I can't remember the commands to totally dump it. Anybody remember how?
[05:26] <calisee> can anyone help me set the resolution in xorg.conf for my external monitor hooked up to my laptop?
[05:26] <gavagai> the ftp user has no valid shell, etc.
[05:26] <mister_roboto> gavagai: using sftp (ssh) is just like using ftp
[05:26] <gavagai> mister_roboto, it works in IE?
[05:26] <BioVorE> N9URK: I think is got an issue tring to parse the packages file it got of the server for some reason.
[05:26] <wrath> Anyone know how to get to perls command prompt?
[05:27] <mister_roboto> gavagai: ahhh... i don't know. i see your problem :)
[05:27] <Sivik> mister_roboto, its a program totally seperate from IE
[05:27] <BioVorE> wrath: you mean cpan shell?
[05:27] <gavagai> :)
[05:27] <Sivik> mister_roboto, and what are you doing using IE anyways?
[05:27] <mister_roboto> Sivik: i didn't see that he was trying to use it
[05:27] <mister_roboto> Sivik: i  mean trying to use IE
[05:27] <detra> hello ... I got Dapper 6.06 installed ... Im trying to get my soundcard to work ... Its a USB soundcard ... But every single time I try to play something it says that there is a prob with the driver ... That it might be in use ... How do I install a USB soundcard ?
[05:27] <rigonatti> Can anyone help me with Wine ?
[05:27] <gavagai> *I* do not use IE.  people who access my ftp server use it.
[05:27] <mister_roboto> Sivik: I haven't used IE for years
[05:27] <Sivik> mister_roboto, why would you want do to di
[05:27] <gavagai> i need plain idiot friendly ftp, but proftpd is killing my network performance
[05:27] <Sivik> mister_roboto, that was sent to the wrong person, sorry
[05:28] <N9URK> the apt-get update didn't help BioVorE
[05:28] <N9URK> I am still getting the stupid error message BioVorE
[05:28] <wrath> Not shure, bio. Im trying to learn to progam in perl but I need the prompt that runs it
[05:28] <N9URK> it has something to do with stats.py BioVorE
[05:28] <BioVorE> N9URK: I am not really sure what you got it doing atm..
[05:28] <mister_roboto> wrath: oddly enough, typing "perl" puts you in the interpreter
[05:29] <n30n> I don't think i have wine installed right. Is there some way i can check to see if the dirs are in place correctly?
[05:29] <N9URK> It keeps looping back to this "SyntaxError: EOF while scanning triple-quoted string"
[05:29] <wrath> In the terminal?
[05:29] <BioVorE> wrath: perl is an interpiters.. just start a text file and start it with #!/usr/bin/perl followed by you perl program..
[05:29] <charlesJacobs> for some reason I can't make xconfig. I get the error message "make: *** No rule to make target `xconfig'.  Stop." any ideas?
[05:30] <jighead> charlesJacobs, where are you runing make xconfig?
[05:30] <Sivik> mister_roboto, that wasn't supposed to be aimed at gavagai, not you
[05:30] <BioVorE> wrath: I don't think there is any interactive shell for it.  perl -MCPAN -e shell allows you to install new modules from cpan if needed but isn't a shell
[05:30] <n30n> !wine
[05:30] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[05:30] <gavagai> i have wondershaper running and even though from the client's perspective it limits the bandwidth, i'm still getting spikes every 5 seconds that completely use all my bandwidth, totally killing the network
[05:30] <N9URK> I guess noone knows what to do
[05:30] <N9URK> BioVorE
[05:30] <charlesJacobs> jighead: in /usr/src. I'm compiling a new kernel
[05:30] <wrath> Ok thanks, I will try to install that then.
[05:30] <BioVorE> N9URK: I would have to research it.. I don't know apt down the lowest level
[05:30] <charlesJacobs> jighead: it doesn't work with oldconfig or menuconfig either
[05:31] <Hobbsee> EmFactor: did you see why you were removed?
[05:31] <mister_roboto> wrath: yes in the terminal, but then you have to "<ctl>d" to end the input and execute it
[05:31] <Kuyaedz> how can I allow access to cups web interface (localhost:631) to addresses OTHER than localhost?
[05:31] <jighead> charlesJacobs, you need to by in /usr/src/kernel-source<version> and then run the command
[05:31] <wrath> Ok thanks very much thats all I need to know.
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> Kuyaedz,  edit the cups configs in /etc/
[05:31] <N9URK> BioVorE thanks for your help though anyway
[05:31] <mister_roboto> wrath: it's easier to put it in a file and run the file
[05:31] <N9URK> BioVorE at least you tried
[05:31] <jighead> charlesJacobs, do you have the kernel source installed there?
[05:31] <John___> hello everyone trying to install ubuntu on my imac power pc and it freezes everytime
[05:31] <BioVorE> but the stat.py is a python script
[05:31] <Kuyaedz> Dr_Willis: I've been editing it & adding Allow my.ip but it isn't letting me into the /admin subfolder
[05:32] <gbutler69> OK....anyone can puzzle this? I "ripped" a Shoutcast stream using "streamripper" to save the content of the MP3 stream from "www.folkalley.com" to a file....I can then play that MP3 file fine in RB; however, when I try to play the "Stream" directly using RB, RB locks up.... :( This has worked flawlessly for the last couple of months on Dapper. Why messing up now?
[05:32] <Fracture> I am having troubles starting gdm, I havn't changed anything, and have just rebooted.
[05:32] <BioVorE> N9URK: you can try asking in the #debian room too.. same engine
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> Kuyaedz,  you did enable the full use of the  web interface to cups?
[05:32] <Kuyaedz> Dr_Willis: Not sure.  where would I do that?
[05:32] <charlesJacobs> jighead: oh. that works. heh. >:)
[05:32] <N9URK> BioVorE: good idea
[05:32] <Fracture> gdm reports that my nvidia card doesn't have enough power, and if this is incorrect to specify NoPowerConnectorCheck in xorg.conf (which I have done, and doesn't work)
[05:32] <gavagai> ok i guess ftp is not popular in here... ;)
[05:32] <BioVorE> N9URK: I am kinda intressed to see what happend and maybe is if there is a bug in apt
[05:33] <N9URK> BioVorE: I am going there now if you want to follow me
[05:33] <mister_roboto> wrath: like this   echo 'print "hello world\n"' >>myfile && perl myfile
[05:33] <mister_roboto> wrath: i mean, not EXACTLY like that, but edit the file with your code, then run it
[05:33] <wrath> how is it executed though in this way?
[05:33] <calisee> can anyone help me set the resolution in xorg.conf for my external monitor hooked up to my laptop?
[05:34] <mister_roboto> wrath: the "perl myfile" tells the perl interpreter to load "myfile" and try to run it as a perl script
[05:35] <wrath> ok do I need to name the file with an extension?
[05:35] <mister_roboto> wrath: no
[05:35] <wrath> ok thats easy :-)
[05:35] <wrath> thanks again, bye all
[05:35] <mister_roboto> wrath: it's kind of a standard to put ".pl" on the end so you can tell by the name but the interpreter doesn't care
[05:35] <wrath> Ok, ill do that then
[05:38] <N9URK> sorry to all if I just flooded some stuff in this room
[05:38] <N9URK> it was a mistake
[05:38] <calisee> I have an external monitor hooked up to my laptop and the resolution needs to be different (same display but that is fine), can anyone point me in the right direction of fixing this?
[05:38] <Hobbsee> N9URK: it auto-kicked you
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> N9URK,  heh - i dident see anything. :P
[05:38] <BioVorE> N9URK: rgr.. take a look at /var/lib/dpkg
[05:38] <crogue5> something up with the repositories?
[05:38] <xer0> anybody know why when i upgraded from breezy to dapper my Samba broke? this is a real pain and i need it working.
[05:38] <xer0> i have tried reinstalling it but nothing shows
[05:38] <xer0> my smb.conf file has not changed @ all
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> xer0,  clarify whats broke.
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> xer0,  also enable verbose logging - may help find the problem.
[05:39] <scud> is wnpp suppose to be network-manager-vpnc?
[05:39] <xer0> well if i go to Places-> Network Servers and then to Windows Network nothing shows. it gives me an error saying smb:\\\ is MIA.  none of my M$ Windows computers can see anythign either
[05:40] <Dr_Willis> xer0,  could try a different samba browser tool. like smb4k, ive often found the gnome smb:\\ stuff to be.. welll fickle.
[05:40] <whiteboy747> when i try to install ubuntu on my imac g5 ppc it gets to the boot screen but then the screen flashes white and the screen goes blank -- any help?
[05:40] <N9URK> Hobbsee - when does it auto-kick someone?  I was trying to cut and paste some lines out of the window and it kicked me
[05:41] <Hobbsee> N9URK: well, we saw nothing from you - just your quit message had (excess flood) in it
[05:41] <detra> whiteboy747, I had the same prob with my iBook g4 ... Are you trying to install graphical ??
[05:41] <whiteboy747> yes
[05:42] <detra> whiteboy747, Mine didn't work either when I did that ... Then I dl text mode ... And it worked ... And then afterwards I installed desktop ...
[05:42] <whiteboy747> ok so that would be the alternate install disk?
[05:43] <detra> whiteboy747, how ya mean ?
[05:43] <xer0> dr_willis: just installed that and it shows nothing
[05:43] <N9URK> How can I get apt-get to not compile a certain package?
[05:43] <nathanael> I have a problem... I think enjoy installing Linux distros more than I like using them...
[05:43] <BioVorE> N9URK: it shouldn't be doing that
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> xer0,  id drop back to manually editing the samba config file and enabling more verbose logging and checking the log messages.
[05:43] <xer0> how do i do that?
[05:43] <N9URK> BioVorE: I wish I could take a screenshot for you
[05:43] <xer0> i mean how do i enable logging?
[05:44] <whiteboy747> detra here are three disks the desktop cd, the server cd, and the alternate cd
[05:44] <crogue5> anyone having a problem getting repository index lists when opening synaptic
[05:44] <BioVorE> N9URK: the only stat.py I have my system here is part of the python2.4 package
[05:44] <Dr_Willis> xer0,  it may be worth while to read a bit of that using samba book. It has oooodles of detals. the smb.conf should have some comments as to the right parts to alter.
[05:44] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[05:44] <ubotu> samba is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html

[05:44] <detra> whiteboy747, oh yeah sorry ... alternate ...
[05:44] <p47> do you know why not compiz works with compiz ?
[05:44] <BioVorE> N9URK: might have a Disk error problem and messed up the stat.py file (its a text file)
[05:44] <whiteboy747> ok thanks i'll try that
[05:45] <crogue5> anyone having a problem getting repository index lists when opening synaptic or update manager?
[05:45] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, cedega help again
[05:45] <BioVorE> N9URK: /usr/lib/python2.4/stat.py
[05:45] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  eh? :p
[05:45] <N9URK> BioVorE is that a conf file?
[05:45] <oni-dracula> error message, Dr_Willis :  The Cedega version (5.2) you are defaulting to is missing the following file : config
[05:45] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  heh - i dont think i helped much last time.
[05:45] <oni-dracula> oh now I actually have a subcription (ponied up $15...)
[05:45] <telache> Hello everyone.  I just upgradeed to Dapper, and now firefox won't open.  Can anyone give me a hand?
[05:45] <BioVorE> N9URK: its a python module..  that I think apt is tring to use.. but those errors your seening look like there from the python interpiter barfing on that file.
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  its missing the file 'config' ?
[05:46] <teckfatt> dose anyone know how to limit the upload speed for SSH?
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  so do i. but i rarely use it.. but im not sure how to cancle it. :)
[05:46] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, one would think that the file 'config' would be included in the damn deb
[05:46] <N9URK> that file does not exist BioVorE
[05:46] <BioVorE> N9URK: well.. theres your problem :-P
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  you ran the point2play tool and updated cedega?
[05:46] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, cedega won't run at all
[05:47] <N9URK> well, so how do I fix that, since apt-get screwed up?
[05:47] <BioVorE> N9URK: do a dpkg -l | grep python
[05:47] <calisee> I have an external monitor hooked up to my laptop and the resolution needs to be different (same display but that is fine), can anyone point me in the right direction of fixing this?
[05:47] <BioVorE> dose it show python2.4 installed?
[05:47] <xer0> dr_willis: i think im gonna say the binary can go screw itself and install it by source like i had to do last time in breezy
[05:47] <N9URK> is that india or lima?
[05:47] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  odd...  i used the deb from their site just the other day
[05:47] <BioVorE> N9URK: lima
[05:47] <billgates1337``> Can someone help me get my WG311v3 up and running?

[05:48] <crogue5> anyone having a problem getting repository index lists when opening synaptic or update manager?
[05:48] <billgates1337``> hobbsee, trust me, i have tryed all the commong stuff
[05:48] <nathanael> nope
[05:48] <BioVorE> N9URK: rgr.. that why there is a | grep python.. should just spit out pythong stuff
[05:48] <billgates1337``> hobbsee, i can't get it to work even with all the guides
[05:48] <Hobbsee> billgates1337``: which chipset?
[05:48] <dou213_> how can i tell what is the location of the directory of C header files that match my running kernel?
[05:48] <billgates1337``> hobbsee: mendell
[05:48] <telache> blast gnome-terminal just crashed on launch....
[05:48] <aphotic> hello, I'm having an error with ubuntu's auto-configuring that has me concerned
[05:49] <telache> this dapper upgrade has some bugs
[05:49] <BioVorE> N9URK: you have a /usr/lib/python2.4 directory?
[05:49] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, I am currently removing all instances of transgaming cedega....removed from synaptic, removed all directories
[05:49] <aphotic> ere's the message that I get whenever i install software via synaptic: E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3

[05:49] <KanRiNiN> Hey guys.  I'm curious:  am I able to download source packages from apt-get and rebuild those for my system architecture?  Like optimize games and media packages instead of 386?
[05:49] <Hobbsee> billgates1337``: mendell?  havent heard of that before...
[05:49] <KanRiNiN> If so can you point me in the right direction with some websites?
[05:49] <Hobbsee> billgates1337``: want to pastebin lscpi?
[05:50] <FarrisG> nyone using gotmail? I keep getting curl errors with the newest version
[05:50] <Hobbsee> KanRiNiN: packages.ubuntu.com
[05:50] <dou213_> some1 pls: how can i tell what is the location of the directory of C header files that match my running kernel?
[05:50] <KanRiNiN> thanks Hobbsee
[05:50] <BioVorE> KanRiNiN: ubuntu is targeted for 486 I think
[05:50] <winbond> anyone here running software raid0?
[05:50] <BioVorE> KanRiNiN: apt-get source will pull the source code used for a particular app.. but you have to figure out all the development headers and libs your self
[05:51] <billgates1337``> hobbsee, http://pastebin.com/709968
[05:51] <Cntryboy> Hey all, is there a program for dialup users for ubuntu that is a caller id so i can see who's calling?
[05:51] <K|NgGh0sT> Anyone have any good links for nub trying to use LVM?
[05:51] <KanRiNiN> Hobbsee: if I run the 686 kernel but compile with pentium-m flags will it be a problem?
[05:51] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  the use may have some .transgaming dirs as well.
[05:51] <billgates1337``> hobbsee, sorry, it was a marvell, not a mendell
[05:51] <ardy> help how to clear my history typing on terminal ?
[05:51] <Hobbsee> billgates1337``: that's what i suspected.  PM?
[05:51] <oni-dracula> oni@oni-desktop:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg --remove cedega-small
[05:51] <oni-dracula> (Reading database ... 84900 files and directories currently installed.)
[05:51] <oni-dracula> Removing cedega-small ...
[05:51] <Hobbsee> KanRiNiN: no idea
[05:52] <billgates1337``> hobsee, hold on, i need to regisher
[05:52] <oni-dracula> it is telling me cedega-small has installed 84,000 files? wtf
[05:52] <Cntryboy> anyone?
[05:52] <BioVorE> KanRiNiN: yes.. kernel dosn't like optimzation out side of what you put into the .config file.  also linux kernel dosn't do anything fancy like mmx or floating point.
[05:53] <N9URK> BioVorE: I am looking
[05:53] <Cntryboy> lol mm
[05:53] <BioVorE> KanRiNiN: the kernel knows what mmx is .. but the kernel dose use anything more then a 386 base instructions.
[05:53] <Geoffrey2> oni-dracula, no, I believe it's telling you that's how many files and directories in total that are installed on your computer
[05:53] <oni-dracula> ok...
[05:54] <babo> this is weird, when I cut and paste my user crontab command into my user command line. It works fine. But the crontab itself doesn't seem to work at all. And doesn't give me any mail errors ... ?
[05:54] <digitalfox> hey, I have an ATI Radeon 9200 mobility (one of the chipsets affected by the upstream fglrx bug,) and I can't seem to get the open source driver working for 3D, despite the fact the chipset in question (r200) is supported for 3D by that driver.
[05:54] <N9URK> BioVorE: Yes it is there
[05:55] <BioVorE> N9URK: is there a file called stat.py in that directory?
[05:55] <chakra85> hey, i was wondering if anyone knew a website that describes the different folder on the root of my drive: (lib, var, bin, ... etc.) just a general overview of what everything is.
[05:55] <BioVorE> N9URK:
[05:55] <digitalfox> anyone here with the same/similar card that would be able to shed light on the issue?
[05:55] <BioVorE> N9URK: (/usr/lib/python2.4)
[05:55] <frank_> !ldp
[05:55] <ubotu> frank_: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:55] <Cntryboy> So, know one here can help me?
[05:55] <chakra85> (as in, why do i need an opt folder_
[05:55] <Cntryboy> oop grr NO
[05:55] <Cntryboy> -know
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> chakra85,  yea - ive seen a few sites that tell that info.. but i just cant rember them. I think the LSB site 'may' have some info.
[05:56] <nnod> i've got dapper running and i compiled my own kernel (2.6.16.20). now the features of gnome-volume-manager (e.g. automount) don't work. hald appears to be working because when i plug something in it shoots off a process called hal-addon-storage. anyone know what is wrong?
[05:56] <K|NgGh0sT> Can someone help me set up an LVM?
[05:57] <Madpilot> nnod, why not go back to a stock kernel?
[05:57] <N9URK> BioVorE: yes there is
[05:57] <chakra85> Dr_Willis: what is the LSB site?
[05:57] <babo> Does cron user run as user or as root ?
[05:57] <Dr_Willis> chakra85,  not sure . google for linux lsb
[05:57] <BioVorE> N9URK: what dose md5sum stat.py give you back
[05:57] <N9URK> hopefully I will type this right
[05:57] <chakra85> Dr_Willis: does it stand for linux standard base?
[05:57] <digitalfox> no one here on a radeon 9200?
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> chakra85,  yea - somthing like that
[05:58] <chakra85> Dr_Willis, thanks i'll try that...
[05:58] <N9URK> fc966d9cd5f8de0eb020344b30c3156d BioVorE
[05:58] <Healot> sup ubuntuans
[05:58] <nekostar> eh
[05:58] <nnod> Madeye, I was getting kernel panics, the new kernel seems to have fixed that
[05:58] <Xgates> say I run Gentoo and XP on my box and on my second hdd I added in Ubuntu, then from the grub menu I copied that info into grub on Gentoo, but I can't get Ubuntu to boot for some reason
[05:58] <BioVorE> N9URK: well that file looks correct.. I have the same md5sum here as well
[05:58] <Xgates> Here is what I put in grub ----> http://pastebin.com/709979
[05:58] <nekostar> anyone familiar with enlightened gnome ?
[05:59] <nekostar> or enlightenment itself ?
[05:59] <christine_> no
[05:59] <aphotic> hmmm anyone here know anything about synaptic package manager errors?
[05:59] <N9URK> I am now seeing "Sorry Indentation error" BioVorE
[05:59] <nekostar> ive got a lot of apps in debian > apps > net and system
[05:59] <Healot> Xgates: sure you map the Grub disk properly?
[05:59] <nekostar> and the menu wrapps too fast and i cant select anything :/
[05:59] <johnZay> my computer keeps saying I have a read-only file system
[05:59] <nekostar> was hoping osmeone knew how to make the menu smaller :/
[05:59] <BioVorE> N9URK: yeah.. its having issues with parsing a text file somewhere..
[05:59] <aphotic> yeah, prolly ntfs
[06:00] <Xgates> Healot: hefre is cfdisk ---->  sdb4     Primary              Linux ext3
[06:00] <Cntryboy> Hey all, is there a program for dialup users for ubuntu that is a caller id so i can see who's calling?
[06:00] <Xgates> Healot: that is my / path, so then in grub that is root (hd1,3)
[06:00] <BioVorE> N9URK: I think the file it parses is /var/lib/dpkg/avaliable   its a text file that list all the packages on the mirrors.  Its a big text file
[06:00] <johnZay> then when I reboot it goes back to writable...
[06:00] <Healot> Xgates: on which partition did you install Grub?
[06:00] <N9URK> what does """ mean in py?
[06:00] <Xgates> Healot: in grub I put after that root (hd1,3) ---> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/sdb4 ro quiet splash
[06:00] <N9URK> is that a comment of some kind?
[06:00] <Healot> well, the chain loader grub
[06:01] <BioVorE> N9URK: the parser is probably seending an open string.  "I am a string"     I am a broken string"
[06:01] <Xgates> Healot: grub is on ---> root (hd0,5)
[06:01] <BioVorE> N9URK: need a even number of " or else stuff gets confused
[06:01] <Healot> Xgates: try to use /boot/vmlinuz instead, if you only install one kernel package for ubuntu
[06:02] <N9URK> BioVorE : on the first line of stats.py it has <quote>"""Constants/functions~</quote>
[06:02] <Healot> Xgates: hd1,0 is mapped to /dev/sdb? correct?
[06:02] <Xgates> Healot: I just installed Ubuntu so /boot/vmlinuz will work?
[06:03] <N9URK> BioVorE line 2 is blank. line 3 <quote>suggested usage: from stat import *</quote>
[06:03] <Healot> well... Xgates: maybe, that's the default symlink for the default kernel
[06:03] <N9URK> BioVorE line 4 <quote>"""</quote>
[06:03] <Xgates> Healot: ahh I don't have a map for sdb in grub
[06:03] <BioVorE> N9URK: """ in python I think is a quote
[06:03] <Healot> ok
[06:03] <Healot> map the disk then
[06:03] <oni-dracula> it seems dapper drake + cedega = KABOOOOOM!!!
[06:03] <Sivik> how do you find a codec for new wmv3?
[06:04] <detra> How can I install flashplayer ??
[06:04] <Sivik> oni-dracula, does cedega not work in dapper
[06:04] <Xgates> how you do this for grub, I've always used Grub in the past with just one hdd, so this is a first for me with two hdds now
[06:04] <Sivik> !flash
[06:04] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:04] <Sivik> !tell detra about flash
[06:04] <oni-dracula> Sivik, it seems that no matter what I do, it ain't gonna work
[06:04] <chakra85> Dr_Willis: if you're still here: i found myself at the wikipedia LSB site and linked to this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard) page. (just in case someone asked in the future)
[06:04] <Sivik> oni-dracula, what does it do?
[06:04] <Hobbsee> !tell billgates1337`` about ndiswrapper
[06:05] <Sivik> Hobbsee, what drivers is he trying to run?
[06:05] <N9URK> BioVorE removing those lines didn't help
[06:05] <h3h_timo> will an intel core-duo processor at 1.66 Ghz run faster than an intel centrino at 2.0 Ghz????
[06:05] <Hobbsee> Sivik: the same ones as i do
[06:05] <Xgates> Healot: how you do this for grub, I've always used Grub in the past with just one hdd, so this is a first for me with two hdds now
[06:05] <Hobbsee> Sivik: marvell ones
[06:05] <N9URK> BioVorE: I sure wish I knew how to stop apt-get's processing
[06:05] <oni-dracula> Sivik, it does nothing...it at one point ran the GUI, but would not run any games...now it won't even run at all
[06:05] <Sivik> oni-dracula, that sucks, i haven't tried cedega in dapper yet
[06:05] <distanceisdeath> is there a TST extractor available?
[06:05] <Healot> Xgates: /boot/grub/*map* >>> some file named *map*
[06:05] <Sivik> Hobbsee, ok
[06:06] <Sivik> how do i get the new wmv3 codecs
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  odd - ive had very few if any problems with it
[06:06] <johnZay> !codecs
[06:06] <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
[06:06] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, I'm about to either boot my windows drive or format and reinstall with ubuntu 5.10
[06:06] <Xgates> Healot: device.map says this in it:
[06:06] <alexmiller> hellp
[06:06] <alexmiller> *help
[06:06] <Xgates> (fd0)   /dev/fd0
[06:06] <Xgates> (hd0)   /dev/sda
[06:06] <Xgates> (hd1)   /dev/sdb
[06:06] <BioVorE> N9URK: sudo killall -9 apt-get  (you might also look in ps ax for dpkg, python and see if its running as well)  Time for bed here.. I'll be on tomarrow night
[06:07] <h3h_timo> will an intel core-duo processor at 1.66 Ghz run faster than an intel centrino at 2.0 Ghz???
[06:07] <Healot> Xgates: it seemd /dev/sdb is already mapped to hd1
[06:07] <Sivik> johnZay: those don't support the new wmv3 yet
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  i just did a simple dpkg -i cedega whatever.. :P  i did use the 'full' not the light one.
[06:07] <BioVorE> h3h_timo: depends what your running on it
[06:07] <Sivik> johnZay, i have already installed all of those codecs and still can't get it to work
[06:07] <alexmiller> i cant get to a FAT32 directory if it has spaces. i am trying to access it through terminal
[06:07] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, 5.1 or 5.2?
[06:07] <Sivik> h3h_timo, probably, but amd is better
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> cd 'this  dir has spaces'
[06:07] <dugg> hello guys. I just installed ubuntu dapper and it looks like i have 3/4 of my screensavers missing.. i.e no preview.. any idea?
[06:08] <alexmiller> thanks
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  its whatever was out 2 weeks ago when i downloaded it
[06:08] <h3h_timo> Sivik, ive read better things about the intel centrino dual core for laptops
[06:08] <Xgates> Healot: yes it's in there, so why can't I get Ubuntu to boot, BUT I have XP Vista on sdb too, and that Partion is marked as Bootable, and I have XP Pro on sda and its marked bootable too
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> Bash FUNdamentals
[06:08] <h3h_timo> Sivik, its better for power saving and stuff liek that
[06:08] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, considering that 5.2 doesn't have a "full" package... I'd say you had 5.1
[06:08] <Sivik> h3h_timo, i don't believe that, thats what the new turion dual core are for
[06:09] <h3h_timo> Sivik, also.. just so you know.. i wanted to get an amd.. but i read lots of reviews.. and i found a great laptop.. if you wana check it out ill give you a link
[06:09] <N9URK> BioVorE: thanks for all the help good night om

[06:09] <ubotu> Cornellius: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  running the updater to get to 5.2 now., :P
[06:09] <dugg> hello guys. I just installed ubuntu dapper and it looks like i have 3/4 of my screensavers missing.. i.e no preview.. any idea? anyone? please
[06:09] <Sivik> yeah, but its going to suck, cause ati doesn't work well in linux
[06:09] <h3h_timo> seems like a pretty good deal.. and im gettin a 3 yr warranty with it..
[06:10] <Hobbsee> dugg: rss-glx ones?
[06:10] <h3h_timo> Sivik, did you get the link?
[06:10] <drcode> I Mast burn it on cd ?
[06:10] <Sivik> h3h_timo, yes
[06:10] <QMario> Cornellius, there is a package for ZSNES.
[06:10] <drcode> or is there other way?
[06:10] <Sivik> h3h_timo, but its a ati video card, and its hard to get ati to work correctly with linux
[06:10] <Cornellius> QMario:  I know, just wanted to see what Ubotu had to say about it.
[06:10] <Sivik> h3h_timo, especially the x cards
[06:10] <alexmiller> how do I remove a directory in terminal
[06:11] <Sivik> rm -r
[06:11] <alexmiller> thanks
[06:11] <telache> Hello everyone.  I just upgradeed to Dapper, and now firefox won't open.  Can anyone give me a hand?
[06:11] <h3h_timo> yeah well.. im just gonna use that for school.. and im planning on getting another system later for linux
[06:11] <Xgates> Healot: this is my grub.conf on gentoo to boot Ubuntu ---> http://pastebin.com/709998
[06:11] <Sivik> h3h_timo, i'm sorry
[06:11] <h3h_timo> Sivik, but do you think it woudl be a good laptop otherwise?
[06:11] <alexmiller> thanks Sivik
[06:11] <varsendaggr> hey all i have in wine  is circle's for fonts
[06:11] <Sivik> h3h_timo, acer has good amd boards as well
[06:11] <varsendaggr> how do i fix that
[06:12] <dugg> Hobbsee: yea i guess. i am not sure. total beginner here. but i guess it's all those cool ones..
[06:12] <Cornellius> TiMidity's nice, but it also likes the CPU :(
[06:12] <drcode> can I boot from floppy and call to iso file to start install ubuntu?
[06:12] <Sivik> Xgates: you need to have the initrd for the dapper as well
[06:12] <Hobbsee> dugg: install xscreensaver-gl
[06:12] <h3h_timo> Sivik, lol i already bought that one.. its being shipped as we speak.. im planning on getting another when i go into my junior year of college
[06:12] <Sivik> h3h_timo, i'm sorry
[06:12] <AngryElf> how do i change my windows manager from kdm back to gdm?
[06:12] <h3h_timo> Sivik, all i wanna know.. is if i got an alright deal
[06:13] <Cornellius> On the login screen
[06:13] <h3h_timo> for the hardware i got
[06:13] <Cornellius> In options
[06:13] <Sivik> h3h_timo, ok
[06:13] <Xgates> Sivik: ahh ok, can you show me yours because I can't boot Ubuntu to copy it
[06:13] <Sivik> Xgates, yet
[06:13] <Sivik> Xgates, yes
[06:13] <drcode> quit
[06:13] <Sivik> Xgates, let me paste it to the pastebin and give it to you
[06:13] <winbond> AngryElf: cheel out , keep the kde
[06:13] <Cornellius> AngryElf:  Where you choose the user
[06:13] <Xgates> Sivik: ok thanks
[06:13] <Cornellius> AngryElf:  Go into options there and change session will let you change WM
[06:14] <Sivik> Xgates, http://pastebin.com/710003
[06:14] <AngryElf> ...
[06:14] <Xgates> k
[06:14] <Sivik> Xgates, its a simple line added to the menu.lst file
[06:14] <AngryElf> did either of you read my question?....i dont want to switch from KDE to gnome, i want to switch from kdm to gdm....last i checked they were different things
[06:14] <Sivik> Xgates, you know how to edit files via vi or gedit correct
[06:15] <dugg> Hobbsee: according to synaptic it is already installed. i tried reinstalling it but still not working
[06:15] <Cornellius> AngryElf:  Ah, misread it sorry.
[06:15] <Sivik> dugg: uninstall it first
[06:15] <Sivik> dugg: sudo apt-get remove "application"
[06:15] <QMario> How do I lock my screen?
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> AngryElf,  dpkg-reconfigure gdm (i THINK) can do that
[06:15] <Sivik> Xgates, does that make sense?
[06:15] <h3h_timo> Sivik, did you check it?
[06:16] <Sivik> h3h_timo, yes, i wouldn't buy it
[06:16] <Xgates> Sivik: I'm no newbie, hehe, BUT I'm booting Ubuntu off grub in Gentoo, so what is the full path for that, what you showed me doesn't look complete  :/
[06:16] <AngryElf> I'm really trying to troubleshoot the fact that when I log out of KDE I get a black screen and nothing works - crtl+alt+f1 included
[06:16] <h3h_timo> Sivik, but, thats because you would want linux on it correct?
[06:16] <nickrud> QMario, System->Quit, choose lock screen
[06:16] <Sivik> yes, and also has to do wtih the fack that i hate intel as well as ati
[06:16] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, what would you reccomend for doing a clean install of cedega now that i've completely screwed everything up?
[06:16] <Xgates> Sivik: isn't that suppose to be --->  initrid  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
[06:17] <QMario> Nickrud, thank you and hello. ;)
[06:17] <nickrud> QMario, hi back at ya
[06:17] <Sivik> Xgates, just make it look like mine, for ubuntu
[06:17] <QMario> Nickrud, I haven't heard from you in a while.
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  im not even sure how ya managed to mess it up. :P A+ job for that eh.
[06:17] <oni-dracula> indeed
[06:17] <Cornellius> !gdm
[06:17] <ubotu> Cornellius: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:17] <nickrud> QMario, I've been here, just different times I'd guess
[06:17] <Sivik> Xgates: well, the /boot isn't needed, cause all my boot information is on its own partition
[06:17] <Cornellius> !KDM
[06:17] <ubotu> Cornellius: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:17] <oni-dracula> you want to vlc into my box and fix it for me? :)
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,    its always been a simple.. download the deb, sudo dpkg -i cedega.deb, then run point2play as the user.
[06:18] <Sivik> Dr_Willis, is that for the cedega?
[06:18] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, dapper made things not so simple
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Sivik,  thats all ive done.
[06:18] <Sivik> ok
[06:18] <Sivik> i'm going to try it
[06:18] <Sivik> with TA
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  what did it make not so simple? i installed it that way on my 3 dapper machines.
[06:18] <Xgates> Sivik: well I'm not using a seperate boot partioon I only made swap and / for ubuntu so wouldn't it look like this then ?> ---> http://pastebin.com/710008
[06:19] <dugg> Sivik: removed. reinstalled. still not working.
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  there is the xlibs annoyance. but that fixable.
[06:19] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, so how exactly do I remove cedega cleanly
[06:19] <Sivik> Xgates: remove the /boot part
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  perhaps use the purge option to apt-get remove ?
[06:19] <Hobbsee> dugg: using gnome or kde?
[06:19] <dugg> Hobbsee: gnome
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  i can honestly say - ive never removed it. I rarely remove anythiong
[06:19] <Hobbsee> dugg: no idea then
[06:19] <Xgates> Sivik: ok so, ---> initrd /initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
[06:20] <dugg> Hobbsee: ..=(. thanks anyway
[06:20] <Sivik> Xgates: try that
[06:20] <babo> this is weird, when I cut and paste my user crontab command into my user command line. It works fine. But the crontab itself doesn't seem to work at all. And doesn't give me any mail errors ... ?
[06:20] <Xgates> Sivik: ok so this should be fine for Ubuntu then yea? ----> http://pastebin.com/710014
[06:20] <babo>  cd /usr/local/bin/etk-scripts/job/ && ./post_script arg  works fine from the user command line .... but doesn't work at all from users cron ?
[06:21] <Sivik> Xgates: yes
[06:21] <Xgates> Sivik: ok thanks brb
[06:21] <Xgates> ;p
[06:21] <dugg> Sivik: any other ideas?
[06:21] <Matic`Makovec> Hey guys. Is it possible to do something like...well to chooe which sound output should program take..e.g xmss takes soundsystem output and skype takes headphones output...how would i set that up, if i can set that up this way? Any ideas?
[06:21] <Sivik> dugg: what program are you trying to run?
[06:22] <Sivik> dugg: cedega?
[06:22] <Sivik> dugg: remind me
[06:22] <dugg> Sivik: what do you mean? i have problems with screensavers
[06:22] <Sivik> dugg: native screensavers or screensavers added
[06:22] <green__saotome> can't get my amarok to work on dapper
[06:23] <green__saotome> things i find on google and ubuntuforums say i need libxine-extracodecs, but i can't seem to find that on the repository (yes, i modified the sources.list file)
[06:23] <Hhhhh> question: is there a script that runs at startup (after a reboot or poweron)? I need to add some modprobe commands to it
[06:23] <Hhhhh> this is xubuntu draper
[06:23] <dugg> Sivik: native i think. they all came with the basic install. i havent added anything.
[06:23] <Sivik> dugg: so what are you trying to do with them
[06:24] <Sivik> dugg: and are you using gnome or kde
[06:24] <nickrud> green__saotome, if apt-cache policy shows an installation candidate for amarok, your sources are good; if it does not, there's still something wrong
[06:24] <nickrud> green__saotome, complete command is apt-cache policy amarok ;)
[06:24] <green__saotome> Hhhh, go to /etc/initd, and throw the script you want to run there
[06:24] <green__saotome> then soft link it to /etc/rc2.d, or which ever run level you are using to boot up or shut down
[06:25] <dugg> Sivik: gnome. i am trying to use them. lol. what else. =p. but almost none of them work.. antinspect/antspotlight.. all..
[06:25] <Sivik> dugg: do you have the correct drivers installed for your video card?
[06:25] <nickrud> green__saotome, erm, apt-cache policy libxine-extracodecs, I gotta get these guys out of my office
[06:25] <Cornellius> dugg:  You have installed the drivers of your videocard correctly ?
[06:26] <Sivik> Cornellius, thats what i just asked him
[06:26] <oni-dracula> The Cedega version (5.2) you are defaulting to is missing the following file : config
[06:26] <oni-dracula> Traceback (most recent call last):
[06:26] <oni-dracula>   File "/usr/lib/transgaming_cedega/Point2Play_gui.py", line 2616, in ?

[06:26] <cruisermaverick> hallo all
[06:26] <Healot> Xgates: you need the initrd entry for an ubuntu kernel, i think
[06:26] <oni-dracula>   File "/usr/lib/transgaming_cedega/Point2Play.py", line 1758, in match_and_copy_default_cedega_profiles
[06:26] <oni-dracula>     log.logger.info("self.current_default_cedega_profile now == " + self.current_default_cedega_profile)
[06:26] <oni-dracula> TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects
[06:26] <Sivik> Healot: hes already gone
[06:26] <Sivik> Healot: i told him that already
[06:26] <green__saotome> nickrud, i install it fine
[06:26] <Cornellius> Sivik:  I was typing it and wasn't looking at the screen at that time :P
[06:26] <Healot> by default Ubuntu stock kernel need an initrd entry
[06:26] <dugg> Sivik and Cornellius: how do i go about checking it? i ticked install official nvidia drivers @ easyubuntu
[06:27] <Sivik> dugg: glxgears -printfps
[06:27] <Sivik> and tell me what the fps says
[06:27] <TheMystic> since upgrading to dapper my mouse occasionally stops responding to clicks... on two separate and very different machines (a laptop and a desktop).
[06:27] <green__saotome> nickrud, it's an engine issue. Xine by default does NOT play mp3's and i can't seem to get amarok to use the arts or gstreamer engines
[06:27] <TheMystic> any thoughts?
[06:27] <Cornellius> dugg:  When you boot, do you see the Nvidia logo ?
[06:27] <dugg> Sivik: unknown parameters.
[06:27] <dugg> Cornellius: no
[06:27] <green__saotome> Cornellius, that depends on wether his bios is configured to display that or not
[06:28] <Sivik> dugg: does glxgears even work?
[06:28] <green__saotome> that generally doesn't mean anything
[06:28] <Sivik> run glxgears --help
[06:28] <Sivik> green__saotome, i see a big difference between when i have it installed correct and when it isn't
[06:28] <Sivik> green__saotome, so it helped me
[06:28] <nickrud> green__saotome, libxine-extracodecs is the package that supports mp3's
[06:28] <Healot> green__saotome: installed "libxine-extracodecs" yet (universe repos)
[06:28] <Healot> dapper's universe repos
[06:29] <nickrud> multiversse, green__saotome multiverse
[06:29] <Healot> anyone gracious enough to paste their /boot/grub/menu.lst file?
[06:29] <green__saotome> healot, i uncommented the universe, out of the sources.list, made a apt-get update, but i still don't see the libxine-extracodecs in apt-cache
[06:29] <dugg> Sivik: unknown parameter still. i can see glxgears at the screensavers options though.
[06:29] <Lorri> Is there some way to disable shift+backspace
[06:29] <Lorri> to turn off x
[06:29] <Sivik> dugg: run glxgears from terminal
[06:29] <Lorri> It's kind of annoying D:
[06:29] <DShepher1> Lorri: XGL?
[06:29] <Lorri> Yeah
[06:29] <DShepher1> Lorri: ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[06:29] <Lorri> Isn't shift+backspace normal X
[06:30] <DShepher1> Lorri: not to my limited knowledge
[06:30] <Lorri> oh
[06:30] <Healot> Xgates: referring to your previous q, you need the initrd entry after the kernel entry for "ubuntu" kernel
[06:30] <dugg> Sivik: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[06:30] <dugg> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[06:30] <Sivik> dugg: then your drivers aren't installed correctly
[06:30] <Sivik> Xgates: did it work?
[06:30] <nickrud> Healot, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15748
[06:31] <Sivik> Healot: i had already taken care of him
[06:31] <nickrud> green__saotome, have you enabled the multiverse repo yet
[06:31] <Healot> oh great
[06:31] <green__saotome> healot, http://pastebin.com/710036
[06:31] <green__saotome> nickrud, yeah
[06:31] <Sivik> Xgates: did it work?
[06:31] <dugg> Sivik: can you please give me some ideas on how to install it then? where do i start?
[06:31] <Sivik> are you in ubuntu
[06:31] <green__saotome> nickrud, i decomment every repo
[06:32] <Healot> thanks for the menu.lst guys
[06:32] <nickrud> green__saotome, you must add the word multiverse to each line that has universe in it
[06:32] <green__saotome> Healot, i sent you one
[06:32] <Snowfairy_> is there a window id for the virtual desktops in x?
[06:32] <green__saotome> what's with the sarcasm?
[06:32] <billgates1337``> you there?
[06:32] <keleus> Can anyone reccomend an IDE (or some kind of development system other than the shell) for a beginner to learn C++ in?
[06:32] <Snowfairy_> xwininfo seems to return the same for all four virtual desktops.
[06:32] <Healot> sarcasm?
[06:32] <green__saotome> nickrud, a bit confused, can you give me an example
[06:32] <green__saotome> healot, my bad, misinterpreted you
[06:32] <Sivik> Xgates: did that work?
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> keleus,  a good tutorial or 4 and the shell are the best. :P
[06:33] <keleus> Dial_tone, time to buy a tanker :)
[06:33] <nickrud> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse <-- green__saotome
[06:33] <keleus> Dr_Willis, can you suggest a tutorial?
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> keleus,   a decent text editor is handy however.
[06:33] <keleus> or even a book?
[06:33] <Healot> keleus: KDevelop seems simple enough, Eclipse maybe?
[06:33] <Sivik> dugg: i can't remember the name of the program right not, but its like xserver-reconfigure
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> keleus,  id do some googling for some beginner tutorials.
[06:33] <keleus> Healot, too heavy... im using XFCE for performance reasons
[06:33] <charlesJacobs> when compiling a kernel what are the disadvantages of compiling a feature as a module rather than directly in the kernel?
[06:33] <Sivik> Xgates: are you in?
[06:34] <green__saotome> nickrud, ok, let me give it a try
[06:34] <Healot> for book, i recommend... C++ for Dummies? if there is such book?
[06:34] <keleus> yea
[06:34] <keleus> but i put it back :) the Dummies series doesn't work well for me
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> i would never recommend ANY of the for dummines/or idiots books.. they are just a waste.. better to spend a little more and get a more advanced book.
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:34] <keleus> the "raw" style used in college textbooks is.... AH
[06:34] <dugg> Sivik: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia is that okay?
[06:34] <Healot> O'Reilly press for C++, keleus?
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> ya dont want a C++ book with lots of pictures.
[06:35] <Sivik> dugg: yeah, that works
[06:35] <keleus> can you buy textbooks at a college bookstore without being a student there?
[06:35] <Healot> or you prefer Microsoft Visual C++...
[06:35] <Healot> keleus: yes, mostly
[06:35] <Madpilot> keleus, sure, they'll take money from anyone
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> keleus,  of course.. or check out the many used book stores out.
[06:35] <green__saotome> bruce eckel's thinking in c++ is pretty good
[06:35] <keleus> i think i'll hit the local campus' book stores
[06:35] <TheMystic> since upgrading to dapper my mouse occasionally stops responding to clicks... on two separate and very different machines (a laptop and a desktop). alt-tabbing jogs it back into working. anyone else seen this?
[06:36] <keleus> or, maybe i should take a single class while im waiting to become a resident...
[06:36] <Sivik> keleus, anyone can buy stuff at a college library
[06:36] <mada> anyone with any cedega experience?
[06:36] <keleus> yea, a little
[06:36] <Sivik> mada: what is the problem?
[06:36] <green__saotome> nickrud, i got the package, installing it now
[06:36] <green__saotome> nickrud, thanks, let's hope this works
[06:36] <Sivik> green__saotome, what are you installing?
[06:37] <keleus> mada, and may i ask what you are trying to use under it?
[06:37] <charlesJacobs> when compiling a kernel what are the disadvantages of compiling a feature as a module rather than directly in the kernel?
[06:37] <green__saotome> sivik, libxine-extracodecs
[06:37] <mada> Sivik: installed, everything works ... but my screensaver stopped working
[06:37] <keleus> nickrud, heh, got D2 running under vanilla WINE
[06:37] <nickrud> green__saotome, you should be fine now
[06:37] <Sivik> green__saotome, does that support the wmv3 files?
[06:37] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: if you compile as a module, you can unload/reload it at runtime
[06:37] <Sivik> mada: can't help you, haven't gotten into it that much
[06:37] <green__saotome> so, anyone has installed xgl successfully on dapper?
[06:37] <Healot> kernel modules vs. modules stuff, charlesJacobs?
[06:37] <mada> keleus: not a problem with it, it runs and all the games i needed it to, but my screensaver stopped working after i installed it
[06:37] <hegemon> what do i need to rip a dvd?
[06:37] <Sivik> hegemon, a program to rip dvds
[06:37] <green__saotome> sivik, not sure, all of my music is basically on mp3
[06:38] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: and also you don't have to load it if you don't need it
[06:38] <keleus> mada, cant say i have any clue what might be doing that
[06:38] <Sivik> green__saotome, but i'm talking about videos from online
[06:38] <hegemon> Sivik, which one?
[06:38] <green__saotome> sivik, i don't look much farther than that
[06:38] <charlesJacobs> TheMystic: so there's no disadvantage to compiling some thing as a module?
[06:38] <Sivik> green__saotome, just asking
[06:38] <green__saotome> sivik, really don't know
[06:38] <Sivik> green__saotome, thats cool
[06:38] <green__saotome> sivik, haven't gotten the browser integration for streaming video (other than flash)
[06:38] <Sivik> green__saotome, i was just wondering if you know
[06:38] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: none that i know of, so long as you set it up appropriately
[06:38] <green__saotome> sivik, and vlc will open practically everything once downloaded
[06:38] <charlesJacobs> TheMystic: oh cool. thanks
[06:38] <Sivik> green__saotome, i'm not talking about streaming video, just talking about the wmv3 files that i downloaded
[06:39] <Sivik> green__saotome, vlc won't open this one
[06:39] <green__saotome> sivik, really?!
[06:39] <green__saotome> sivik, that's a first
[06:39] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: you just need to make sure you don't compile things needed at boot into modules
[06:39] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: but even there, you can get around some of those by using an initrd
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> ive seen many a wmv that linux players cant play.
[06:39] <nickrud> charlesJacobs, if you are rolling your own, look up initramfs or compile your root filesystem & the motherboard stuff into the kernel, not as a module
[06:39] <TheMystic> charlesJacobs: i once compiled ext2 support as a module, then wondered why my system wouldn't boot :)
[06:40] <keleus> I wonder how long it will be before we see WINE 1.0
[06:40] <anildigital> hi ppl in #ruby channel I am not seeing otheres messages why?
[06:40] <nickrud> never

[06:41] <Dr_Willis> screensaver obsession night? :P
[06:41] <green__saotome> sivik, i believed you, just didn't know this was a problem, is this a new format?
[06:41] <Sivik> green__saotome, hell if i know
[06:41] <Madpilot> nicholaspaul, the PPC version of Ubuntu should work on a G3
[06:41] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: you have to do some more intricate things to boot linux on a beige g3
[06:41] <Sivik> green__saotome, i'm just trying to view this video thats a trailer for a game i might want to play, but it seems to not work
[06:41] <keleus> mada, im not sure, but you could try to find it with your system manager, look at the command line it ran with, kill the process and execute the command line that was listed. Run it as the user the process was running as
[06:42] <Healot> i need a recommendation
[06:42] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: because its firmware isn't the NewWorld openfirmware
[06:42] <nicholaspaul> Madpilot: yea i tried ppc. version
[06:42] <keleus> mada, system MONITOR, not manager :)
[06:42] <anildigital> how to see others messages in #ruby channle?
[06:42] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: but dapper ppc should work
[06:42] <nicholaspaul> TheMystic: oh i see. What kind of things? where can i find a list, like a howto?
[06:42] <Sivik> green__saotome, i was just showing you the problem
[06:42] <green__saotome> sivik, have you asked the all knowing hermit (google)?
[06:42] <nicholaspaul> TheMystic: yea, tried Dapper
[06:42] <samuel> sup all
[06:42] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: lemme look up debian's instructions...
[06:42] <Sivik> green__saotome, yes
[06:42] <anildigital> I think I am banned to see msgs from others in #ruby channel, please help
[06:42] <nickrud> Madpilot, nicholaspaul the p3 is not available for ubuntu easily
[06:42] <billgates1337``> can someone help me with "network manager"? it won't let me connect with my wireless card!
[06:42] <keleus> Hmm, should i learn C or C++? i have a very small amount of C++ experience, TI Basic, and the Unreal Tournament scripting language. (enough to make 4 small mods)
[06:42] <mada> keleus: rgr... sorry, not used to ubuntu yet, i been a debian user for years and just switched my desktop and laptop over (but not my server) and i am used to doing everything with deb config tools
[06:43] <Sivik> green__saotome, everything is forums and all they say is that they downloaded the dll from some website, but never give a url
[06:43] <Healot> i want to stream media with VLC, for the sake of security and caching, should i stream with caching proxy?
[06:43] <samuel> whats the name of that program that installs extra stuff in ubuntu (flash, java, win32codecs, etc...)
[06:43] <samuel> ?
[06:43] <Madpilot> anildigital, this is #ubuntu, why are you asking here?
[06:43] <Sivik> billgates1337``, what kind of video card?
[06:43] <keleus> mada, no problem
[06:43] <Sivik> billgates1337``, i mean wireless car
[06:43] <anildigital> how to set +v
[06:43] <billgates1337``> wg311v3
[06:43] <nicholaspaul> nickrud: the p3?
[06:43] <Sivik> billgates1337``, card*
[06:43] <Healot> keleus: #c #c++ heh
[06:43] <Sivik> billgates1337``, brand?
[06:43] <Cornellius> anildigital:  You're not banned, there's just no one talking.
[06:43] <anildigital> please guide me
[06:43] <Madpilot> samuel, EasyUbuntu?
[06:43] <billgates1337``> netgear
[06:43] <nickrud> nicholaspaul, erm, g3 :)
[06:43] <Sivik> billgates1337``, did you google it
[06:43] <nicholaspaul> oh nickrud lol
[06:43] <Sivik> green__saotome, not sure what else to try
[06:43] <keleus> Sivik, i have a netgear WG511T and it works fine natively on Dapper... madwifi has it well supported (atheros chipset)
[06:43] <billgates1337``> yes, about 200 times, now
[06:43] <samuel> Madpilot, thanks
[06:43] <keleus> Healot, nooooo...... :)
[06:44] <Sivik> keleus, ok
[06:44] <armedking> Is it possible to defrag fat disk under Linux?
[06:44] <billgates1337``> sivik, PM?
[06:44] <Sivik> keleus, tell billgates1337``
[06:44] <anildigital> Cornellius, thanks
[06:44] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: http://www.us.debian.org/releases/stable/powerpc/ch04s05.html.en#files-oldworld
[06:44] <Sivik> billgates1337``, talk to keleus
[06:44] <billgates1337``> kk
[06:44] <keleus> billgates1337``, get a netgear 108MBPS cardbus card
[06:44] <Hobbsee> keleus: or dont get a netgear at all - their drivers are dodgy.
[06:44] <keleus> billgates1337``, make sure it has the atheros icon on thebox. when you open it, it SHOULD say WG511T
[06:44] <TheMystic> nicholaspaul: that should get you started. if you can find the kernel and initrd on the ubuntu cd, and copy them to the hard drive, you should be able to boot using BootX.
[06:44] <keleus> Hobbsee, not using their drivers, im using the atheros driver through madwifi.
[06:44] <Sivik> Hobbsee, the broadcom are worse
[06:45] <disinterested_pe> i cant get this webcam to work
[06:45] <nicholaspaul> thanks TheMystic I'll do some reading
[06:45] <billgates1337``> keleus, pm...
[06:45] <Hobbsee> keleus: the card is working, it's just not behaving with networkmanager.
[06:45] <nicholaspaul> TheMystic: I've got some homework to do! Thx for the pointers.
[06:45] <gavagai> Networking question.  Right now I have a DSL with a 2wire wireless router.  now, suppose i wanted to use an old linux system as my router.  can i do this with just an extra linux box and this router?  i need the linux box completely on the "outside" of my lan, as a chokepoint.
[06:45] <dugg> Sivik: hello. it's me again. i followed the instructions on the site. rebooted and stuck on the nvidia splash screen
[06:46] <Sivik> dugg, then there is some sort of issue
[06:46] <Sivik> what kind of card is it?
[06:46] <gavagai> the motivation for this is that i run a few servers and traffic shaping is required i think.
[06:46] <gavagai> and this cheapo router doesn't do traffic shaping
[06:46] <dugg> Sivik: geforce fx5200
[06:46] <Sivik> !nvidia
[06:46] <ubotu> well, nvidia is Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[06:46] <VR_> how can i disable task switching with the scrollwheel?
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> VR_,  you mean when you are over the taskbar?
[06:47] <VR_> Dr_Willis: yep
[06:47] <Sivik> dugg: google to see if there are any issues with that driver and the 5200 card
[06:48] <charlesJacobs> if I compile a kernel with the K8 processor family selected will it compile as 64- or 32-bit?
[06:48] <nickrud> 5200 works great with both nv & nvidia
[06:48] <bobstro> keleus: have you used kismet with that card?
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> VR_,  move the mouse away from the taskbar? :)  personally i love the featrue. i discovered it by mistake. heh
[06:48] <TheMystic> anyone using dapper on a dell latitude d610
[06:48] <TheMystic> ?
[06:48] <VR_> Dr_Willis: i have a sensitive wheel, so it gets annoying :\
[06:48] <bobstro> TheMystic: D600
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> VR_,  id say right click on the task manager and see what properties it has
[06:49] <keleus> well, my WG511T has no version number printed on it :/
[06:49] <TheMystic> bobstro: can you successfully resume after suspend?
[06:49] <VR_> Dr_Willis: already tried that
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> VR_,  when in doubt read the gnome docs/user manuals. :P
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> or google
[06:50] <bobstro> TheMystic: i have, but no luck getting suspend-to-disk/hibernate to work. still fighting with it though, including not able to get ndiswrappers working anymore.
[06:50] <bobstro> keleus: i'm looking for a good kismet card
[06:50] <TheMystic> bobstro: hmm, resume fails entirely for me since i upgraded to dapper
[06:50] <TheMystic> i get a blank screen
[06:50] <nickrud> I knew about scrolling in the windowspace switcher, the taskbar too? nice
[06:51] <FluFlo> TheMystic, same for me. Its a IDE problem
[06:51] <keleus> bobstro, well, ive got one of the Atheros chipped netgear WG511T and it works in monitor mode fine
[06:51] <bobstro> TheMystic: ah, i should mention i haven't played much since the upgrade and realized the wireless was dead. i probably have that problem too.
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> nickrud,  i noticed the kde irc client has it in its tabs also.
[06:51] <Lorri> Cedega won't start my Warcraft 3 installation
[06:51] <keleus> bobstro, but its a gamble, some of them dont have the atheros chipset (the box should have an atheros label)
[06:51] <nickrud> Dr_Willis, it's a very nice concept, I'm gonna look for it in more places
[06:52] <bobstro> keleus: ok, thanks for tip. i'll look for that logo on the box.
[06:52] <keleus> bobstro, the full name of the card (what you see first on the box) is 108MBPS
[06:52] <winbond> does the ati fglrx driver work with the 64bit ubuntu?
[06:52] <TheMystic> FluFlo: ahh, it seemed like it might be, since it couldn't spin the hd back up
[06:52] <johnZay> is it safe to apt-get sendmail?
[06:52] <nickrud> johnZay, except that it's a hoary piece of software, yes
[06:52] <keleus> bobstro, http://www.netgear.com/products/details/WG511T.php
[06:52] <FluFlo> TheMystic, in my case I have an Acer Aspire. The IDE controller is tricky and won't wake up afther suspension
[06:52] <TheMystic> FluFlo: i think i traced it to the kernel v2.6.15... if i boot in the old (breezy) 2.6.12 kernel, it seems to work
[06:52] <johnZay> lol
[06:53] <nickrud> johnZay, unless you need sendmail, look at postfix & exim4, they're much easier
[06:53] <keleus> bobstro, and lspci says this about it:
[06:53] <Hhhhh> green__saotome, I out my script in /etc/init.d/, then soft linked it in /etc/rc2.d/ and then in /etc/rc5.d/, but it still doesn't work
[06:53] <keleus> bobstro, 0000:02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
[06:53] <winbond> does the ati fglrx driver work with the 64bit ubuntu?
[06:53] <johnZay> k thhanks.. I'll give them a try
[06:54] <bobstro> keleus: that sounds perfect! so 802.11a too? that'd be a bonus.
[06:54] <TheMystic> FluFlo: what ide chipset is in your box?
[06:54] <keleus> bobstro, the chipset is there, but the rest of the card isnt :/ doesnt actually work with A
[06:54] <FluFlo> VIA something, let me check it out
[06:54] <bobstro> keleus: ah, bummer.
[06:55] <nickrud> Hhhhh, did you link it in /etc/rc2.d/ as Snn<scriptname> ?
[06:55] <FluFlo> TheMystic, 000:00:11.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C586A/B/VT82C686/A/B/VT823x/A/C PIPC Bus Master IDE (rev 06)
[06:55] <Hhhhh> not as Snn<scriptname>
[06:55] <TheMystic> FluFlo: hmm, k. mine's an intel sata controller.
[06:55] <keleus> bobstro, at least I assume :) no 802.11a around to test :)
[06:56] <Hhhhh> nickrud, I did soft link it in /etc/rc2.d/ though
[06:56] <FluFlo> TheMystic, in my case, it fails simply because it is crappy
[06:56] <nickrud> Hhhhh, remove the links you made, and use sudo update-rc.d <scriptname> defaults 99 , that will set up the links correctly for you
[06:56] <TheMystic> hehe. in my case it seems to be a regression since 2.6.12
[06:57] <AngryElf> what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get?
[06:57] <nickrud> aptitude tracks dependencies during installation, so that unused dependencies are automatically removed
[06:57] <keleus> AngryElf, aptitude is a frontend to apt-get and apt-cache etc.
[06:58] <nickrud> keleus, no, aptitude & apt-get/apt-cache both are frontends to apt
[06:58] <johnZay> is psotfix the best way to send mail with php?
[06:58] <Amaranth> nickrud: it only works if you install it with aptitude
[06:58] <Healot> define "the best"
[06:58] <nickrud> Amaranth, true, that's why I only use apt-get here for advice
[06:59] <nickrud> Amaranth, nothing like having aptitude try to remove something you just installed with apt-get ;)
[06:59] <Amaranth> heh
[06:59] <AngryElf> hmm, ok and non sequitur -- where can I customize gnome themes?  the theme dialog has no option fo it
[06:59] <Amaranth> i believe mvo has a bzr branch for apt that does the same thing as aptitude
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> AngryElf,  check the 'theme details' button i think.
[07:00] <Lorri> which process does wine run under
[07:00] <Lorri> like the name
[07:01] <Lorri> I have a blank Wine configuration window just hanging around
[07:01] <winbond> anyone running software raid0 //?
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> Lorri,  try  'ps az | grep wine'
[07:01] <nickrud> Lorri, try alt-f2 xkill <enter> , and clicking the dead window
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> Lorri,  or  'ps ax | grep wine'
[07:01] <Lorri> okay thanks
[07:02] <Lorri> hmm
[07:02] <Lorri> I can click through the window
[07:02] <Lorri> and the ps ax doesn't work
[07:02] <nickrud> Amaranth, do you think it'll ever make it into mainline?
[07:02] <AngryElf> doesn't really let you config - let's you pick and choose different subsets of themes - but no specific modifications
[07:02] <Amaranth> dunno
[07:02] <Lorri> I remember that wine ran under some other name
[07:03] <keleus> er, no?
[07:03] <keleus> always wine
[07:03] <keleus> or wine-server
[07:03] <Lorri> oh that's it
[07:03] <Lorri> thanks
[07:03] <keleus> you could try "pgrep wine"
[07:03] <Lorri> hmm
[07:03] <Lorri> still not
[07:03] <keleus> ctrl-alt-backspace :)
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> reboot
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> :P
[07:03] <keleus> i hope he was expecting that...
[07:04] <nickrud> ouch, never say ctl-alt-backspace without mentioning logout first ;)
[07:05] <Snowfairy_> Can you reference virtual desktops by window id or some such?
[07:05] <Lorri> >_>;
[07:05] <Snowfairy_> I'm trying to use imagemagick's import to take a screenshot of a virtual desktop I'm not currently looking at.
[07:05] <keleus> Lorri, i was hoping you would give me time to explain what that did...
[07:05] <pd273> /server irc.partecs.net
[07:05] <keleus> but in any case, ddi it help?
[07:05] <pd273> oops
[07:06] <Lorri> I know what it did
[07:06] <Lorri> Worked anyway
[07:06] <keleus> 01:05:14 <Lorri> >_>;
[07:06] <Lorri> was going to do it
[07:06] <Lorri> myself
[07:06] <Lorri> Is there anything like cleartype for ubuntu
[07:06] <Lorri> >_>;;;;;;;;
[07:06] <AngryElf> okay - now that I have this box setup with a theme I like - what folder can I copy to other gnome boxes and have it use the same theme?
[07:06] <keleus> whats cleartype?
[07:07] <Lorri> and yes, the 'I know what it did' was a lie
[07:07] <keleus> font anti-aliasing?
[07:07] <Lorri> like anti-aliasing
[07:07] <Lorri> yeah
[07:07] <FluFlo> keleus, for windows. yeah
[07:07] <keleus> it should be up by default. but yea, its around...
[07:07] <FluFlo> nothing new
[07:07] <keleus> pain in the but to configure by hand
[07:07] <Lorri> meh looks fine anyway
[07:07] <Snowfairy_> Is there a way to reference virtual desktops by window id or display or anything like that?
[07:08] <Lorri> For some reason I can't install Warcraft 3 through Cedega
[07:08] <Lorri> D<
[07:08] <nickrud> Lorri, you can control most of the same stuff under system-prefs-font details button
[07:08] <harry> can someone giv me a link on where to download frostwire.....
[07:08] <nickrud> !frostwire
[07:08] <ubotu> methinks frostwire is a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWire
[07:08] <Fr0Gs> hey all whats the command to see what version driver is installed?
[07:08] <Fr0Gs> grep something rather
[07:08] <Fr0Gs> lol
[07:08] <keleus> driver?
[07:08] <keleus> er...
[07:09] <Fr0Gs> Video Card Driver
[07:09] <Fr0Gs> i meen lol
[07:09] <keleus> "i meen lol"?
[07:10] <Lorri> What's the preferred BT client for ubuntu?
[07:10] <keleus> i use azureus straight from sourceforge. i extract and run it from my home directory (useing blackdawn java)
[07:11] <Lorri> I'll just get azureus through synaptic
[07:11] <keleus> its out of date...
[07:11] <Snowfairy_> Is there a way to reference virtual desktops by window id or display?
[07:11] <babo> Does anyone have the link to the tutorial that tells me how to associate a protocol (skype) with a program (skype) in firefox ? thanks ...
[07:11] <FluFlo> Lorri, depending or your repos may be not available
[07:11] <neutrinomass> keleus: But the repositories are the preferred means of getting software :)
[07:11] <Lorri> I have 2.4.0.2-0ubuntu2
[07:12] <Lorri> listed
[07:12] <keleus> neutrinomass, or running it as a user from in your home directory is safer :)
[07:12] <FluFlo> nevernind, it is on universe
[07:12] <Lorri> I lov ehow Vista requires 15gb to install
[07:12] <keleus> neutrinomass, im a freak... i have a nonpriveledged user for most of my non-system network-listening programs
[07:12] <Lorri> and Ubuntu requires 2gb
[07:12] <dugg> hi. if i have a file on my dekstop, and i am asked to give its directory, is it: /home/username/desktop <name of file>  ?
[07:13] <keleus> Lorri, vista is still got all the debug stuff
[07:13] <AngryElf> so, 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' broke lots of things........how do i get rid of it completely?
[07:13] <Lorri> I can understand that, but
[07:13] <keleus> Lorri, if everything in ubuntu still had debug symbols in them and breakpoints etc. it would be rather large
[07:13] <nickrud> dugg, yes, except it's Desktop
[07:13] <Lorri> oh
[07:13] <neutrinomass> keleus: That has nothing to do with getting it from the repository. Installing software from outside the repository breaks things and you never need to run azureus as sudo AFAIK
[07:13] <Lorri> And I love how Windows Vista clocked my cpu to 100% when I opened  Internet Explorer
[07:13] <Fr0Gs> hey all whats the command to see what version Graphic Driver is installed? i think its grep something
[07:14] <wooby> i'm having a problem wiht 6.06 amd64, "configure: error: C compiler  cannot create executables"
[07:14] <keleus> neutrinomass, how would extracting a java binary to /home/user/azureus and running it from there break things? its not an installer...
[07:14] <wooby> anyone able to help?
[07:14] <dugg> nickrud: thanks man
[07:14] <keleus> hmm, seems the repositories azureus has been updated...
[07:15] <neutrinomass> keleus: Well to begin with, it's inconvenient because it won't update itself :P
[07:15] <keleus> neutrinomass, er, azureus has auto-updates... and the repository version installes a crapload of unecessary dependencies (including a version of java i dont want)
[07:16] <FluFlo> keleus, I do that way, I install azureus in my home and it is fine
[07:16] <neutrinomass> keleus: OK then, I agree :)
[07:16] <usman> hello to everyone
[07:16] <keleus> do you really agree or give up? :D
[07:16] <itux> anyone running a webserver with xampp?
[07:16] <usman> can any one tells me how to run .wma files in ubuntu
[07:16] <neutrinomass> keleus: I agree 90% and give up 10% :-p
[07:17] <keleus> yay! sourceforge got rid of the javascript BS and put the download URLS back!
[07:17] <cdubya> !tell usman about Restricted Formats
[07:18] <keleus> well i gota get some sleep.
[07:18] <FluFlo> usman, I think there is a plug-in for xmms, but im not sure
[07:18] <usman> what is restricked formats ?
[07:18] <suyog> i need help with xgl, please!
[07:18] <cdubya> itux, I've setup xampp on win xp......
[07:19] <suyog> my video playback is very bad when using xgl. any help?
[07:19] <Snowfairy_> Is there a way to reference virtual desktops by window id or display?
[07:19] <nickrud> usman, a paget that walks you thru getting support for things like that: concentrate on the alternate media players & the windows codecs
[07:19] <usman> yes there is a plugin for Xmms but its not working
[07:19] <Fr0Gs> how can i listen to music threw XMMS and talk on TeamSpeak!!! it won't work
[07:19] <Fr0Gs> lol
[07:19] <keleus> !confuse Fr0Gs
[07:19] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, keleus
[07:19] <Fr0Gs> ?
[07:19] <keleus> yes!
[07:19] <choi> can i install windows game on my ubuntu?
[07:19] <cdubya> heh, hit by a windmill.
[07:19] <keleus> forgot this was #ubuntu not #debian
[07:19] <itux> does xampp use proftpd on xp?
[07:19] <tristanmike> !tell choi about wine
[07:20] <suyog> i get frame-by-frame video playback when running xgl. how can i fix it?
[07:20] <keleus> Fr0Gs, are you trolling? or do you really not know?
[07:20] <cdubya> itux, I didn't setup anything of that nature.....it installed php, mysql apache and some nice web configurators
[07:20] <nickrud> suyog, wait for xgl to get fixed from what I've read.
[07:21] <cdubya> didn't mess with ftp with it.
[07:21] <usman> thanks
[07:21] <itux> why not set it up on ubuntu? =)
[07:21] <rob11> hi All
[07:21] <Madpilot> wow - soundjuicer in Dapper uses 93% CPU just to rip a CD - it didn't in Breezy... :|
[07:21] <cdubya> itux, it wasn't my machine, and the woman only uses winders..... :-/
[07:22] <cdubya> itux, but I've got her husband on Breezy and soon to be Dapper....heh
[07:22] <itux> i see :-)
[07:22] <rob11> I am looking for an rsync mirror for dapper ?
[07:22] <keleus> im using XFCE... hwo do i fix debconf to stop trying to use gnome?
[07:22] <Fr0Gs> i followed that esd thing keleus it still doesnt
[07:22] <Fr0Gs> let me have to sounds
[07:22] <nickrud> keleus, ?
[07:23] <keleus> nickrud, when im installing packages debconf complains about some gnome perl lib being missing (duh! no gnomes on this system) and falls back to Dialog
[07:23] <keleus> nickrud, i would rather it fall back to a different kind of prompt, or just default to dialog (which is curses based)
[07:23] <cdubya> itux, it's one of those situations where the user actually believes in their mind that they can't survive without using M$ software....it's tragic. :)
[07:23] <Snowfairy_> Maybe a different question will get an answer.... is there a way to capture a screen image from a virtual desktop I'm not looking at?
[07:24] <cfk> what is the gnome gui thing that sets up WPA wifi keys?
[07:25] <keleus> well im really going to sleep now...
[07:25] <nickrud> keleus, there will be something about that in debconf-doc , I don't have it installed yet
[07:25] <cdubya> cfk, didn't know there was one at this point.....but I gave up on wpa because I couldn't ever get it to work right.
[07:25] <cdubya> Snowfairy_, you mean using vnc?
[07:26] <cfk> cdubya - I got it working on my other box
[07:26] <Snowfairy_> no... I mean like, I'm on workspace 1
[07:26] <itux> how do you color your name like that?
[07:26] <Snowfairy_> I want to screenshot workspace 4
[07:26] <Snowfairy_> without switching to it.
[07:26] <cdubya> oh
[07:26] <cfk> cdubya: but I installed about 4 tings - not sure which actually made it all work
[07:26] <cdubya> cfk, I followed the wiki and it still didn't work. Gave up trying. Wasn't that critical to me as I just used WEP.
[07:28] <nickrud> keleus, still here?
[07:29] <owen> anyone experienced any problems with emu10k1 cards under amd64 dapper?
[07:32] <harry> can someone giv me a link on where to download frostwire.....
[07:32] <nickrud> !frostwire
[07:32] <ubotu> [frostwire]  a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWire
[07:32] <nickrud> harry ^^
[07:32] <harry> nickrud: do you know where???
[07:32] <nickrud> harry, that page has a link
[07:33] <AngryElf> so, I just removed kubuntu, and I still have the kubuntu boot-up and shut-down screens.......which is :( and I'd rather not have them....is there an easy way to switch it back to ubuntu?
[07:34] <nickrud> AngryElf, I think you should only have to do the last two steps on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[07:35] <Ademan> what's the latest version of wine?
[07:35] <xice> .14
[07:36] <sexcopter8000m> hi, something very strange is happening for me. update-manager says there are two updates in the tray, but when i run it it logs me out and restarts X again... any ideas?
[07:36] <sexcopter8000m> i tried running it through gksudo update-manager, and it does spew out something in the console, but i can't read it fast enough before it disappears
[07:36] <nickrud> sexcopter8000m, first thing I'd do is ctl-alt-f1 , log in and run sudo apt-get upgrade , see if that fixes it.
[07:37] <cfk> how can I tell what gets loaded into the upper bar ting next to the clock?
[07:37] <AngryElf> nickrud, i suppose we'll see, thanx!
[07:37] <cfk> so I can figure out what I installed to get the networky thing that works ;)
[07:38] <sexcopter8000m> nickrud, i can get round it with synaptic, that's not a problem. just wondered why this is happening, and moreover if my laptop could have been comprimised?
[07:38] <Ademan> so whats the latest version of wine?
[07:38] <cfk> right click, about - "NetworkManager Applet"
[07:39] <Madpilot> Ademan, xice already told you - 0.14
[07:39] <nickrud> sexcopter8000m, no idea really. You might try looking on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs , see if there's something similar
[07:39] <xice> well, its 0.9.14 i believe
[07:39] <Ademan> Madpilot: the version i have is 0.9....
[07:39] <Ademan> xice: ok
[07:39] <Ademan> thanks
[07:39] <xice> oh its 0.9.15 now
[07:39] <xice> just updated the other day
[07:40] <nickrud> Madpilot, I see you use wine a lot also ;)
[07:40] <Ademan> i didnt think you were talking to me cause i figured i didnt have a version of wine from the future lol
[07:40] <sexcopter8000m> nickrud, ok, well now it's updated, the manager isn't crashing X, that's something at least.
[07:40] <SD> is anyone else having gnone-cups-icon consume large amount sof cpu time?
[07:40] <snakeman> hello folks..I have a particular USB IBM ultranav keyboard...where would I go to get help maximizing features(such as scrolling w/ the touchpad)
[07:40] <SD> sorry *amounts of*
[07:40] <jsgotangco> i believe its a known issue
[07:40] <nickrud> SD, I've seen it do that shortly after gnome startup, but it goes away
[07:40] <rob138> when i install a version of wine through WineCVS.sh, nothing becomes executable, is there somethign i am doing wrong?
[07:40] <Madpilot> nickrud, never - evidently xice's info wasn't totally complete ;)
[07:40] <Ademan> and, uh, additionally, i just did wine --version, and it spat back 0.9.9  ... am i nuts?
[07:40] <xice> the 0.9 is basically just saying that wine will never be 1.0 (i guess), so it really only goes by
[07:40] <xice> the final digit
[07:41] <SD> nickrud: this is happening after ive been logged in for a few hours
[07:41] <xice> Ademan, apt-get update and upgrade
[07:41] <Ademan> so i'm behind?
[07:41] <nickrud> I think jsgotangco was commenting that this known and logged as a bug somewhere SD
[07:42] <Ademan> how badly? because i dont have the wine snapshot repository
[07:42] <Ademan> and i dont really care that much, unless i'm badly behind
[07:42] <SD>  ah i c
[07:42] <rob138> does anyone know how to help me troubleshoot my problem?
[07:43] <Ademan> rob138: have you tried just installing the version of wine straight out of the ubuntu repositories?
[07:44] <Whiteboy7> d
[07:44] <rob138> Ademan, yeah but it will not get CS:S working, so i want to try different options like the dx9 version and the cedega version
[07:44] <rayston> whats the command to view what video drivers I am using?
[07:45] <Ademan> the .wine/userdef.reg file... do i technically need to edit that so that the registries point to the right places?
[07:45] <Whiteboy7> ok i've tried installing ubuntu using the alternate cd but when i tried to boot it fails on pbbuttonsd then the screen goes blank
[07:47] <tylerofl> does anyone know of a way to pinpoint the cause of a system crash?
[07:48] <tylerofl> it seems to happen at random
[07:48] <tylerofl> mouse stops, sound loops a section over and over, etc
[07:49] <tylerofl> it only seems to happen after awhile when sound is going, but for me that's all the time, so...
[07:49] <dugg> guide from site: 1. Open up a console window.
[07:49] <dugg> 2. cd /usr/src
[07:49] <dugg> 3. sudo tar xjvf name_of_source_file.tar.bz2
[07:49] <dugg> 4. sudo ln -s name_of_dir_where_file_was_untarred_to linux
[07:49] <dugg> stuck on 4
[07:50] <dugg> how do i know the name of dir where file was untarred to linux?
[07:50] <dugg> anyone please?
[07:50] <chron> how can i make stuff from source
[07:50] <chron> what package do i need?
[07:51] <iiiears> build-essential
[07:52] <iiiears> chron - alien is helpful in converting rpm to deb
[07:52] <Healot> and some other development packages depends on what you're building
[07:52] <tristanmike> dugg: unless you specify otherwise, the untaring extracts to current directory
[07:52] <nf4> how long should it take to burn a 3.5gb dvd iso?
[07:52] <Healot> nf4: depends on your burner
[07:52] <nuomi> it depands on your driver
[07:52] <nf4> is 5minutes about right
[07:52] <someothernick> depends on speed
[07:52] <Whiteboy7> no
[07:52] <Healot> 1500 Kbps = 1 speed
[07:52] <nuomi> and disk itself
[07:53] <Whiteboy7> 5 minutes is way too fast
[07:53] <nf4> my burner is 16x
[07:53] <Healot> and the disk write capabilities
[07:53] <someothernick> burn 4x more gooder
[07:53] <nf4> thats what i thought
[07:53] <Healot> 16x1500 then nf4, if the disk also support 16x write speed
[07:53] <dugg> tristanmike: which is..? sorry i am a total beginner here.
[07:54] <nf4> how can i tell if the dvd burned properly
[07:54] <Ademan> with wine is it reccomended to keep the default as Windows 2000 ?
[07:54] <iiiears> healot - see if hdparm  helps
[07:54] <Healot> dugg: the default directory name is the same as the file name minus the ".tar.bz" extension
[07:54] <tristanmike> dugg: "pwd" in a terminal lists the current directory and "ls"  lists the files/directories in your current directory
[07:55] <Geoffrey2> Ademan, Codeweaver Crossover, which is a commcercial version of wine, sets it's default bottle as  win98
[07:55] <Healot> iiiears: if BIOS already enabled DMA, there is no need for hdparm ;-
[07:55] <iiiears> Geoffrey - Maybe you could educate me? Does crossover office support directX 8 or 9?
[07:56] <ubuntu> hello
[07:56] <rage> Hey, I'm having some problems installing dapper, it freezes at the last stage of installation, 97% "Completely removed ntfsprogs". The freeze is a complete lock up, no response to pings mouse movement ect, it just sits there
[07:56] <nf4> my bios told me that dma was enabled but ubuntu said it wasnt
[07:56] <nf4> tell i enabled it in ubuntu
[07:56] <Healot> !hdparm
[07:56] <tristanmike> !dma
[07:56] <ubotu> Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[07:57] <rage> Its really quite annoying, it crashes before its finished making /boot/grub/menu.1st
[07:57] <dugg> tristanmike and Healot: thank you
[07:57] <iiiears> nf4 - Yep, some hdparm settings aren't enabled so Ubuntu can support a wider number of machines
[07:57] <Ademan> DMA does a hell of a lot more than that...
[07:57] <rage> So I'm having to boot my other operating systems manually
[07:58] <tristanmike>  dugg: :)
[07:58] <nf4> for dvds you need it or it will think that you dont have decss installed
[07:58] <nf4> if the dvd has css on it
[07:58] <iiiears> there are some other nice tweaks to wring the last bit of performance from your hardware.
[07:59] <iiiears> hdparms
[07:59] <nf4> well it seems that dvd burned correctly
[07:59] <Madpilot> iiiears, 6.06 is supposed to enable DMA automatically on all supported hardware - it did for me, when I did a re-install
[07:59] <nf4> when i click properties it is 3.5 just like it should be
[08:00] <nf4> mine was too but i figured that was becouse i updated from brezzy
[08:00] <Geoffrey2> iiiears, no, it doesn't support any version of Directx...will it ever, I have no idea...as I see  it, wine is designed to run Windows applications...Directx isn't actually an application but an API
[08:00] <iiiears> Madpilot. - How old does your machine have to be to NOT support DMA?
[08:01] <Madpilot> iiiears, pretty old, from what I've heard
[08:01] <Healot> any mobo with PIO only support
[08:01] <konfuzed> yo js_ is that john the shark
[08:01] <Healot> most mobo from 2000 or newer support DMA2/5
[08:02] <nf4> i dont think it has to do with your machine being old but rather the drives
[08:02] <harry> what do they meant on this page that to make sure i have the ubuntu desktop installed when upgrading to dapper drake from CD https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades
[08:03] <nf4> do you guys have a prefer one dvd-R over the next
[08:03] <nf4> or should i buy what is on sale
[08:04] <snooplsm> hello folkes...
[08:04] <Healot> the DVD-R disk? or the burner?
[08:04] <nf4> disks
[08:04] <Geoffrey2> does anyone know what restricted format software is actually legal in the US?
[08:04] <nf4> i picked up a 25 pack of philps for 7$
[08:04] <Healot> no, technically
[08:05] <snooplsm> question: Apache2 and Mysql are giving me errors when I try loading their package.  mysql says "Error, Dependency is not satisfiable. mysql-client-5.0"  i'm trying to install the server tho.
[08:05] <AngryElf> anyone heard of a firefox plugin that inverts webcolors......trying to get rid of the constant white backgrounds
[08:05] <nf4> i thought restricted just ment that it isnt open source
[08:05] <nf4> like the nvidia drivers
[08:06] <snooplsm> web  server tutorial for ubuntu??
[08:06] <Healot> well... some restrictions do include export restriction
[08:06] <Healot> like DVDCSS for example
[08:07] <rage> Is there a text mode installer on 6.06?
[08:07] <the_Kane> hey
[08:07] <someothernick> alternate cd
[08:08] <Healot> and the server CD...
[08:08] <snooplsm> hey fellers, when you try installing a package and it doesn't allow you to.. why is this?
[08:08] <nf4> i dont under stand decss the guy who wote it won the battle aginst the mpaa didnt he
[08:08] <AngryElf> how can I manually invoke NTP updating?? if I sudo ntpdate it says there's no servers avilable
[08:08] <Madpilot> snooplsm, what exact error did you get?
[08:08] <Madpilot> AngryElf, in Gnome, do it thru the clock's GUI
[08:08] <snooplsm> "Error, Dependency is not satisfiable. mysql-client-5.0"
[08:08] <snooplsm> happens w/ apache also
[08:08] <the_Kane> rage: yes its the Alternate CD
[08:09] <snooplsm> Madpilot, "Error, Dependency is not satisfiable. mysql-client-5.0"
[08:09] <Madpilot> snooplsm, that package is in main repo
[08:09] <robert_[vodka] > how do I configure my sysem to set a static ip addr on my network/
[08:10] <snooplsm> Madpilot, i dont understand
[08:10] <snooplsm> main repo?
[08:10] <iiiears> Madpilot try to install Mplayer. It's dependency hell. synaptic makes you jump through a bunch of hoops like that one. "Will not be installed"
[08:10] <harry> is it bad idea to upgrade to dapper drake from the internet???
[08:10] <snooplsm> its on my cd?
[08:10] <harry> is it bad idea to upgrade to dapper drake from the internet???
[08:10] <hukkka> harry: well worked fine with me
[08:10] <Owen> robert_[vodka] , you need to edit your dhcpd.conf
[08:10] <chron> dpkg -i debfile.deb
[08:10] <chron> is that how you install?
[08:10] <Owen> I will pm you
[08:10] <chron> a deb
[08:11] <Madpilot> snooplsm, Main is one of the repos that's always enabled, is what I meant - so it should be able to install mysql-client-5.0
[08:11] <harry> hukka: after getting the breezy up to date, you performed the upgrade to dapper???
[08:11] <snooplsm> ok so i do sudo apt-get install mysql
[08:11] <snooplsm> right?
[08:11] <snooplsm> does ubuntu have root?  don't remember typing a pword for root
[08:12] <Healot> root account is disable by default
[08:12] <rage> snooplsm: Yes it does, sudo passwd
[08:12] <Madpilot> snooplsm, use sudo & your own user pw
[08:12] <someothernick> sudo pass is same as your user
[08:12] <Healot> it's there, but disabled
[08:12] <someothernick> :/
[08:12] <Madpilot> rage, that's not needed or encouraged
[08:12] <someothernick> late
[08:12] <iiiears> snoopism - Is Sudo -s acceptable?
[08:12] <robert_[vodka] > Owen: Are you the same Owen from castlenet? :P
[08:12] <snooplsm> umm E: Unable to lock the administration directory
[08:12] <snooplsm> whats that mean
[08:12] <Owen> sure aren't
[08:13] <Owen> snooplsm, do you have two synaptics running?
[08:13] <rixth> How do you get the mimetype of a file?
[08:13] <snooplsm> :-)
[08:13] <snooplsm> 1
[08:13] <iiiears> another app has a write lock on an open file?
[08:13] <snooplsm> gotcha
[08:14] <harry> hukka: did you just click the upgrade to 6.06 LTS at update manager???
[08:14] <iiiears> snoopism - If you are running PHPtake a look at suPHP - nifty.
[08:14] <snooplsm> one final question
[08:15] <snooplsm> where can I find the dir of all these packages
[08:15] <snooplsm> i tried doing sudo apt-get install mysql
[08:15] <snooplsm> says it can't find it..
[08:15] <Lesiuk> you have bad respozitories
[08:15] <the_Kane> QUESTION: does annyone here, use there windows machine with a proxy server and wireless router to access internet on their ubuntu machine? i do and i get an error every now and then saying connection refused by proxy server. I've changed proxy's like 4-5 times and that hasn't fixed it. any ideas?
[08:15] <snooplsm> where are they stored on my pc/dvd
[08:15] <robert_[vodka] > Owen: where *is* dhcpd.conf?
[08:16] <Owen> haha.. sorry, nevermind me.. I am thinking of fedora
[08:16] <robert_[vodka] > blah
[08:17] <iiiears> the_kane - Windows machine is forwarding your connection to the internet?     Ubuntu ... Windows Machine ... Internet?
[08:17] <timfrost> snooplsm, there are separate server and client packages - mysql-server and mysql-client
[08:17] <robert_[vodka] > where/how do I get ubuntu to stop taking a dynamic IP?
[08:18] <rage> robert_[vodka] : System menu, administration, networking
[08:18] <the_Kane> iiiears: yeh, Internet-->Windows-->Wifi Router-->Wifi Card-->Ubuntu
[08:18] <snooplsm> timfrost, yes I just need to find the right file names, i tried mysql-server
[08:18] <keleus> the_Kane, what version of windows?
[08:18] <robert_[vodka] > rage: I have the server distro
[08:18] <Ademan> you guys, when trying to install steam on my computer, (with wine of course, i get the following error) err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 4 bytes in thread 000c eip 7ffb697a esp 7e08bffc stack 0x7e08c000-0x7e19c000 err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 148 bytes in thread 0009 eip 00446fe7 esp 7faa0f6c stack 0x7faa1000-0x7fbb0000 does that technically mean if someone expanded the default stack for wine then it would work?
[08:18] <the_Kane> keleus: XP Pro
[08:19] <keleus> the_Kane, winXP is limited in teh amount of connections/second and the number of connections. could be the issue right there
[08:19] <harry> will i be able to upgrade to dapper for using only the update manager???
[08:19] <rage> robert_[vodka] : Ah, umm, well I'm new to Ubuntu, but I can tell you the debian way, edit /etc/network/interfaces
[08:19] <keleus> the_Kane, anti-worm stuff from a recent patch (that doesnt really help)
[08:19] <iiiears> the_kane - I can only guess. You said it was working. - Windows gives me trouble that way when i enable file sharing. - Would using a router to NAT gateway for alll machines be easier?
[08:20] <Lesiuk> keleus: you can change it
[08:20] <harry> will i be able to upgrade to dapper for using only the update manager???
[08:20] <Lesiuk> keleus: i have on windows max connections per secound set on 50
[08:20] <the_Kane> iiiears: what do you mean NAT Gateway?
[08:20] <spikeb> harry: yup
[08:20] <the_Kane> keleus: could you please explaine more on that? are you saying that i cant fix that?
[08:20] <keleus> the_Kane, http://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=1497
[08:20] <iiiears> Internet .. Router ... All Machines.
[08:20] <keleus> the first section expains
[08:21] <dugg> whenever i try to install nvidia's drivers, i got "No precompiled kernel interfaces was found to match your kernel..." help please
[08:21] <harry> spikeb: i just have to change the sources.list right????
[08:21] <spikeb> harry: if you just use the update manager, it will do all of that for you
[08:21] <the_Kane> iiiears: im on dial-up so i cant fead the internet straight to the router
[08:21] <timfrost> snooplsm, is this breezy or dapper? For me (dapper/x86), the packages are in main over the network.  They are *not* on the dapper CD
[08:21] <xpc> hejj
[08:21] <the_Kane> keleus: thanks ill give it a read
[08:21] <n30n> I need help with wineX install.
[08:21] <garryfre> dugg: Is this breezy or dapper?
[08:21] <n30n> i have the script #!/bin/bash
[08:21] <n30n> cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/winex login
[08:21] <n30n> cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/winex co wine
[08:21] <n30n> #wineX is wine with supply directx instruction
[08:21] <harry> whats wineX????
[08:21] <keleus> the_Kane, if you think thats the problem, look for "Event ID 4226 Patcher" on the page
[08:22] <n30n> do i put that in the source.list?
[08:22] <the_Kane> keleus: thank you ;)
[08:22] <dugg> garryfre: dapper
[08:22] <n30n> harry:  Supposeivly its wine with a directX instruction
[08:22] <chakra85_> hi
[08:22] <chakra85_> can anyone help me with mysql?
[08:22] <garryfre> dugg here is a link that works for any dapper ubuntu or kbuntu .... link coming
[08:23] <n30n> chakra85 what are you trying to do
[08:23] <keleus> the_Kane, not saying this is the cause of your issue, but it COULD be, and you may want to "fix" the fix anyways. as the article explains, even with the limit the ability to spread worms is still rediculous (so the "fix" microsoft did was pointless)
[08:23] <chakra85_> i just installed mysql-server and i'm trying to create a database
[08:23] <garryfre> say dugg https://wiki.kubuntu.org/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[08:23] <chakra85_> but i keep getting "error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'"
[08:23] <the_Kane> keleus: well i guess ill just apply that patch anyhow
[08:23] <keleus> the_Kane, funny, i couldn't sleep so i popped back on for a second, and saw your issue :) maybe it was meant to be :)
[08:24] <n30n> chakra85_ you need a password
[08:24] <chakra85_> n30n, so how do i set one?
[08:24] <keleus> the_Kane, if you dont trust the patcher, the next section on the article tells you how to patch it yourself
[08:24] <the_Kane> keleus: lol :P
[08:24] <garryfre> !tell dugg about nvidia
[08:24] <harry> n30n: ive installed starcraftdemo and its pretty slow, whats the cause of it?? is it the nvidia drivers not installed or the wine itself or its because its a demo?????
[08:24] <n30n> chakra85_ its the password for your root user. do you have one?
[08:24] <the_Kane> keleus: alright ill take a look
[08:24] <n30n> harry: are you using wine?
[08:24] <chakra85_> n30n, i don't think i ever set one explicitly. is it the same password that I use when i sudo?
[08:25] <n30n> harry: it's because wine is slow. how much other stuff do you have installed
[08:25] <nf4> dose any one know how to format a flash card with ubuntu
[08:25] <n30n> chakra85_ try it.
[08:25] <nf4> i screwed mine up trying to write files on a unstable usb port
[08:25] <chakra85_> n30n, in what form? $ sudo mysqladmin password <pwd> create gallery2
[08:26] <iiiears> the_kane - I haven't looked at it in over a year but the "Linux Router Project" may be of interest.
[08:26] <dugg> garryfre: apparently the latest nvidia driver doesnt work well with some cards.. including mine..
[08:26] <harry> n30n: i used wine... i just tried wine with starcraft and winamp. thats all i did.... is it really because of the wine????
[08:26] <nf4> what card?
[08:26] <chakra85_> n30n, when i try that it gives me the same error
[08:26] <n30n> chakra85_: that looks good. it should be $ sudo (what you are accessing) enter, and then it should ask you for password
[08:26] <garryfre> dugg what card is it? You might have to use the legacy drivers. that link should tell you how to use the legacy nvidia-glx
[08:26] <dugg> garryfre: so i am trying to install an older driver. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80314
[08:27] <dugg> garryfre: geforce fx5200. i dont think i should go with the legacy drivers
[08:27] <n30n> harry: What eles do you have installed and how much ram do you have? Wine is good if you have lots of process speed. but it burns up
[08:27] <n30n> harry: try having nothing eles runing but wine and that program.
[08:27] <avis> dugg its really easy to apt-get the ubuntu packaged nvidia driver
[08:27] <chakra85_> n30n, when i type "$sudo mysqladmin" it just lists the help for mysqladmin. i think i've already typed in the password once for this session
[08:28] <garryfre> Ok, it might work as a last resort the legacy driver. Dapper seems to want some sort of glx driver.
[08:28] <iiiears> Wine is great. Cedega is maybe supporting DirectX for gaming.
[08:28] <iiiears> *better
[08:28] <Abatrour> hey guys, i have a question on making ubuntu a qos router
[08:28] <n30n> chakra85_ what are you trying to do? create a mysql database?
[08:28] <Abatrour> are there any guides out there that go through that procedure?
[08:28] <chakra85_> n30n, here's the output when i try something like "$sudo mysqladmin ping": mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[08:28] <chakra85_> error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
[08:29] <chakra85_> yes
[08:29] <keleus> Abatrour, i would recommend using something like openBSD or freeBSD for making network appliances...
[08:29] <garryfre> dugg Seems dapper has a repository of pre-compiled drivers for bout any dapper kernel released.
[08:29] <n30n> iiiears: wineX has directX
[08:29] <iiiears> keleus - yeppers.
[08:29] <Ademan> can you specify a stack size with wine?
[08:29] <avis> dugg, first things first, be sure to have latest kernel for your architechture.  enable mutliverse in your sources.list.  apt-get install your restriced modules for your arch if it didn't do it automagically.  then apt-get install nvidia-glx then type nvidia-glx-config enable as root.
[08:29] <harry> n30n: my RAM is 768MB ddr 266 and my hard drive is 40gig 31.50 gig available space,
[08:29] <Abatrour> yeah, i would have used monowall or something but i'm wanting to do more with it than just qos routing
[08:29] <garryfre> !nvidia
[08:29] <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
[08:29] <someRandomGuy> is there a way in Konqueror, to make one folder have a different icon size than others???
[08:29] <Abatrour> i'm trying to make a qos router/ file server to stream media to my other computers and modded xbox
[08:30] <avis> dugg, then restart X but dont listen to me, visit the url
[08:30] <avis> :)
[08:30] <chakra85_> n30n, did you see that output? i can repaste it if you want
[08:30] <n30n> chakra85_: Idk. It sounds like its not configured right.
[08:30] <garryfre> I don't think so someRandomGuy
[08:30] <iiiears> n3on - True. Still Cedega also has support for some of those "wacky" - grin     protection schemes included on game CDs.
[08:30] <secretpickle> can anyone recommend a decent FTP program besides gFTP? gFTP seems to be a bit buggy to me
[08:30] <someRandomGuy> garryfre: b/c that would be convenient for folders with videos and pictures n such
[08:30] <chakra85_> n30n, oh... any advice on how to configure it?
[08:30] <n30n> chakra85_: try changing it from connecting to localhost to 127.0.0.1
[08:30] <keleus> ubotu, no, nvidia is a graphics card manufacturer. For help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu, you can visit the Ubuntu Wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/NVidia
[08:30] <ubotu> keleus: okay
[08:30] <someRandomGuy> garryfre: should definitely be an added feature
[08:30] <keleus> !nvidia
[08:30] <chakra85_> n30n, how do i do that?
[08:30] <ubotu> nvidia is, like, a graphics card manufacturer. For help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu, you can visit the Ubuntu Wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/NVidia
[08:31] <keleus> thats better.
[08:31] <n30n> chakra85_: i don't remember give me a minute. But i know i had the problem with my website to with UNIX
[08:31] <harry> can someone giv me a link in ubuntu wiki to install sun java
[08:31] <timfrost> !java
[08:31] <iiiears> !java
[08:31] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[08:31] <someRandomGuy> harry: java.com
[08:31] <chakra85> n30n, wait, i'm stillhere
[08:32] <garryfre> say someRandomGuy Ahh, yes, I think I stand corrected. its under view i the browser and I think you can set it according to folder.
[08:32] <n30n> chakra85_: i don't think it knows where to go for "localhost" so if you make it connect to 127.0.0.1 (mirror ip) it will work
[08:32] <iiiears> timfrost: I'll beat you to it next time. - lol
[08:32] <someRandomGuy> garryfre: so you can? cool thx
[08:32] <chakra85> n30n, is there a .conf file somewhere that I can change?
[08:32] <harry> someRandomGuy: i mean running the command in terminal to get sun java. there are 2 kinds the black and the sun
[08:32] <garryfre> I hate bad grammar when I type it.
[08:32] <dauddaud> Hi all ... appreciate some help here ... new to Ubuntu ...  the install misidentified my Multitech Multimodem ZPX as an Agere Venus modem, and seems to think it is on ttyS4.  Naturally it doesn't work  :(  (it works under SUSE 10.1 (dual boot) where it is on ttyS0).  How do I go about setting it straight? (6.06 Dapper i386)
[08:32] <n30n> chakra85: are you running linux server?
[08:32] <keleus> heh
[08:32] <chakra85> n30n, haha, i'm actually not even sure where mysql lives on my file system
[08:33] <snooplsm> !mysql
[08:33] <garryfre> someRandomGuy welcome.
[08:33] <chakra85> n30n, yeah - apache2
[08:33] <edulix> hi!
[08:33] <n30n> chakra85: gotcha. hold
[08:33] <edulix> I think I did an update yesterday
[08:33] <iiiears> Welcome edulix.
[08:33] <edulix> and today gdm doesn't start anymore, libcairo.so.2 can't be found
[08:33] <the_Kane> keleus: apparantly my windows machine didn't need patching :S
[08:33] <edulix> and of course it's installed the package libcairo2
[08:33] <n30n> chakra85: alright. we shall try to work threw this together. Can i PM you?
[08:34] <keleus> edulix, !esuoh yzarc eht ot emoclew
[08:34] <chakra85> n30n, yeah that would be awesome
[08:34] <keleus> the_Kane, service pack not installed?
[08:34] <snakeman> how can I have multiple addresses on different subnets in ubuntu?
[08:34] <edulix> leleus: ?
[08:34] <the_Kane> keleus: yeh SP2
[08:34] <dugg> garryfre: i installed the legacy drivers. so how do i check if the drivers are working?
[08:34] <edulix> oh maybe it's the prelink thingie...
[08:34] <iiiears> the_kane - There was a big patch released for critical vulnerabilities on the Redmond OS on the 13th.
[08:34] <keleus> edulix, im just being a fool... read that line backwards
[08:34] <edulix> ah :P
[08:35] <the_Kane> iiiears: how would that help me?
[08:35] <n30n> chakra85: i send you a message. did you get it?
[08:35] <chakra85> n30n, nooo.. i'll try sending you one
[08:35] <keleus> iiiears, he uses his windows box for a proxy and gateway... and sometimes it refuses connections for no apparent reason
[08:35] <garryfre> say dugg I just looked closer at that link you sent. and it applies to breezy. tehre should be some line in that link I sent about enabling the driver then closing all apps and doing ctrl-alt-backspace to restart xserver. If you see the nvidia splash screen you are good to go.
[08:35] <iiiears> the_Kane:  heh - NVM - (goes back to sit iqueitly in the corner.)
[08:35] <Abatrour> are there any settings in ubuntu 6.06 for internet sharing?
[08:35] <avis> dugg, the legacy drivers are fine but the 5200 should be able to do the nvidia-glx.  though follow your bliss.
[08:36] <keleus> the_Kane, check your event logs under computer management... maybe some clues would be in there... (right click "My Computer" and choose manage)
[08:36] <garryfre> Oops sorry for the private say sent to the public channel
[08:36] <Abatrour> options i mean, anything for qos?
[08:36] <the_Kane> iiiears: lol i hoped that didn't sound rude, i was just wondering :P
[08:36] <n30n> chakra85: are you runnign xchat for IRC?
[08:36] <chakra85> n30n, yes
[08:36] <the_Kane> ok brb
[08:36] <Geoffrey2> that last security update from MS makes me really glad I decided to try out Ubuntu
[08:36] <Healot> I am running windows :)
[08:36] <iiiears> the_kane -  Thats okay. it didn't
[08:36] <n30n> chakra85: you should have gotten a message under #ubuntu at the top left
[08:36] <keleus> iiiears, i brought up the 10 connection/second limitation and a workaround, but that wasnt the problem
[08:36] <avis> garryfre, for what its worth i follow the directions on the url exactly and when i restart X i know i get the new driver, but -- no nvidia splash screen.
[08:37] <avis> the reason i know is i have to readjust my monitor.
[08:37] <keleus> I can't remember EVER owning a legal copy of windows (except the one that came with my laptop, and was immediatly removed in favor of Pro edition...)
[08:37] <keleus> but now i'm clean :)
[08:37] <rage> I know Xgl is exactly supporting in Ubuntu but does anyone know if it has issues with two monitors?
[08:37] <ppj1010> no way in hell im paying $300 for software
[08:37] <chakra85> n30n, yeah, it says n30n underneath #ubuntu, but that channel only contains my message to you saying hello
[08:37] <garryfre> avis that's worht a lot, its good to know when a links' instructions fail to work
[08:37] <avis> rage, yes it does
[08:38] <avis> garryfre, i would think it would happen to someone other than me :)
[08:38] <avis> as well.. that is. .
[08:38] <garryfre> dugg I looked up your card, it doesnt' list it as needing legacy.
[08:38] <keleus> ppj1010, i managed to get MS Office 2003 Pro from my college under a special licence.... only $80 US
[08:38] <Amaranth> snooplsm: ?
[08:38] <ppj1010> open office
[08:38] <Amaranth> Ahem.
[08:38] <keleus> ppj1010, i never said i use it :)
[08:38] <CaptainMorgan_> ooooh - wireless IS better with Dapper!
[08:38] <garryfre> avis what nvidia card to you have?
[08:38] <avis> neat we have an ubuntu support person here :)
[08:38] <Amaranth> Please don't discuss illegal activities here.
[08:38] <avis> its the fx5200
[08:38] <avis> made by msi
[08:38] <avis> 128mb
[08:38] <chakra85> n30n, and another message underneath that (from me) saying hello?
[08:39] <n30n> chakra85: it's not connecting for somereason
[08:39] <Amaranth> avis: That should work with the nvidia-glx package.
[08:39] <keleus> well, illegal is a relative term :) but i take your point and will refrain from discussing potentially troublesome topics
[08:39] <avis> sorry garryfre sometimes i just type things on a couples lines instead of a long segment.  been in console too long ;)
[08:39] <Geoffrey2> I installed Sun's JRE from Synaptic, however, I couldn't set any of the java-alternatives like the wiki instructions say I should...is this a problem?
[08:39] <garryfre> avis Its listed as non-legacy, use regular nvidia-glx, make sure you download the precompiled driver for your particular kernel.
[08:39] <avis> aye it does.
[08:39] <dsas> n3on, chakra: Are you both registered with freenode?
[08:39] <chakra85> n30n, ok... so i found a package called mysql-admin that gives me gui access to my database
[08:39] <avis> yes garryfre i did all that
[08:39] <garryfre> avis :) np
[08:40] <snooplsm> Amaranth keeps a tight ship
[08:40] <n30n> chakra85: yeah i was gonna suggest something along those lines
[08:40] <chakra85> n30n, i put in hostname: localhost user: root and password: <pwd>
[08:40] <chakra85> n30n, and for some reason it logged in
[08:40] <keleus> ppj1010, its funny though, now they have student and teacher edition for ~ 150. Even though they could afford to sell it to me for 80, and you KNOW there was still profit on that. It's sickening
[08:40] <chakra85> n30n, do you think i can create a new database here?
[08:40] <garryfre> say avis did you then run sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[08:40] <noiesmo> avis, heres a oneliner for nvidia sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common linux-386 linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[08:40] <n30n> chakra85: sweet. yes you can.
[08:40] <Amaranth> Geoffrey2: What wiki page? What command are you running and what error are you getting?
[08:40] <keleus> ppj1010, and student/teacher is standard edition.... they sold me professional
[08:40] <avis> garryfre, the banshee package seems to be missing in icon, as trivial as that is..  though i dont remember if i read that on your companies wiki or not.
[08:40] <garryfre> say avis and then do ctrl-alt-backspace
[08:41] <noiesmo> avis, just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to have nvidia
[08:41] <Amaranth> noiesmo: nvidia-glx pulls all that in
[08:41] <chakra85> n30n, awesome thanks for you help
[08:41] <avis> noiesmo, thats great !
[08:41] <Amaranth> noiesmo: And once you've installed it you can run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[08:41] <Amaranth> noiesmo: No need to manually edit the file.
[08:41] <chakra85> n30n, it's very weird that the pm didn't work though
[08:41] <iiiears> keleus - Ubuntu.. Ubuntu/ - #Ubuntu - lol
[08:41] <keleus> ?
[08:41] <avis> noismo, i like to do the linux-686 because it installs everything i need through synaptic.
[08:42] <Madpilot> chakra85, PM only works in freenode if you're registered & identified here
[08:42] <n30n> chakra85 yeah. i think maybe the PM is disabled. Yesterday the login to #ubuntu was restricted untill you register so i think someting got messed up when that happened
[08:42] <avis> yes i did restart X, garryfre
[08:42] <avis> i'm confused
[08:42] <the_Kane> keleus: i found 2 errors that looked like they could be the problem (the same 2 errors came up a fair bit...)
[08:42] <noiesmo> avis, thats fine just example
[08:42] <chakra85> Madpilot, n30n: ooooh
[08:42] <avis> i'm going to go hide
[08:42] <squiggly> http://www.hai2u.com/
[08:42] <the_Kane> keleus: do you want to see them?
[08:42] <chakra85> Madpilot, n30n: haha. ok that makes sense. how do i register?
[08:42] <keleus> the_Kane, sure. pastebin would be good
[08:42] <Amaranth> avis: Ok, let's start over.
[08:42] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell chakra85 about register
[08:42] <avis> no i got it fine
[08:42] <garryfre> avis ok, then lets try a screensaver like euphoria and tell me if you get animation.
[08:42] <n30n> chakra85: go to the freenode root
[08:42] <keleus> heh winXP tech support in #ubuntu
[08:42] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell n30n about register
[08:42] <Amaranth> avis: Everything is working?
[08:42] <avis> ok
[08:43] <chakra85> Madpilot, n30n, thanks
[08:43] <n30n> Madpilot: i am registered... it was him that isn't. and i was about to explain it
[08:43] <Amaranth> garryfre: err, just run glxinfo | grep direct
[08:43] <the_Kane> keleus: alright give me a sec
[08:43] <Madpilot> n30n, OK - you identified too?
[08:43] <n30n> Madpilot: Yeah. I did yesterday.
[08:44] <the_Kane> keleus: http://pastebin.com/710173
[08:44] <n30n> madpilot: well snapz it looks like it's not anymore... i was yesterday
[08:44] <garryfre> Amaranth My nvidia driver is working fine, its Avis and Dugg having issues, but I am goin to try that to see what it looks like
[08:44] <Madpilot> n30n, you have to identify every time you log in - /msg nickserv <password>
[08:44] <iiiears> Madpilot - Is there any way to reclaim a forgotten password?
[08:44] <n30n> Madpilot: i know
[08:44] <Madpilot> iiiears, no idea
[08:45] <n30n> Madpilot: i left this open over night i guess my session expires
[08:45] <Madpilot> n30n, most IRC clients can auto-identify you when you sign in
[08:45] <avis> garryfre, yes i do though its rendered rather slowly.  perhaps its my video card.  but i do see it.
[08:45] <the_Kane> keleus: Windows Machine: 192.168.0.2      Ubuntu: 192.168.0.3
[08:45] <n30n> Madpilot: Are you an OP?
[08:45] <Madpilot> n30n, here, yes
[08:45] <nemik> hello, how could i see which app is holding port 80?
[08:45] <hangfire> anyone know if the official Sun Java compiler/sdk is on the ubuntu repository?
[08:45] <Geoffrey2> Amaranth, wiki.ubuntu.com/java tells me I should sudo update-alternatives for java, jar, javac, javadoc, javah, javap, and javaws
[08:45] <garryfre> say avis try glxinfo | grep direct and tell me the output.
[08:46] <iiiears> "netstat"
[08:46] <avis> the answer is yes garryfre
[08:46] <avis> yes to rendering
[08:46] <avis> over.
[08:46] <keleus> the_Kane, looks like a typo in your samba configuration on the line specifiying the workgroup? also, your linux machine is basically trying to take over the workgroup, and the windows machine is responding by disabling the browser service (bad) or forcing an election (which your linux machine would probably win due to configuration mentioned earlier - which is also bad in this case)
[08:46] <harry> QUESTION. WHEN CRACKING A GAME EXAMPLE DIABLO 2 IN WINXP. IS IT THE SAME WHEN CRACKING IT IN UBUNTU
[08:46] <Geoffrey2> sudo update-alternatives --java worked fine...for jar the sun version didn't show up as an option, and every other one I tried gave me a message that there were no alternatives
[08:46] <n30n> Madpilot: what are "memos" oh here?
[08:47] <avis> i didn't mean that rudely garryfre if you thought that.  i'm just weird tonight.
[08:47] <garryfre> avis Congratulations, it is installed correctly, thanks to that command from Amaranth I got from him to see if its running.
[08:47] <Amaranth> harry: Please do not discuss illegal activities here.
[08:47] <avis> ok..
[08:47] <n30n> Madpilot: its like an office job all over again
[08:47] <garryfre> avis ah no, all is fine. :)
[08:47] <avis> wonderful
[08:47] <avis> its nice to meet you garryfre
[08:47] <keleus> harry, WARNING: doing so can get you banned from bnet easily, whether you are cracking it legally or not. The methods to prevent banning in windows MAY NOT WORK under wine due to incomplete API implementation
[08:47] <Madpilot> n30n, memos? server notices, you mean? Or what?
[08:47] <harry> Geoffrey2: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[08:47] <Amaranth> keleus: ...
[08:48] <keleus> harry, see DIABLO2 in the wine application database at winehq.org for a script that will make your CDs work, rather than cracking.
[08:48] <n30n> Madpilot: it says i have no new memos.
[08:48] <Madpilot> n30n, then nobody's sent you any, that's all
[08:48] <garryfre> avis Welcome, Its so nice to solve someones bug. :)
[08:48] <n30n> Madpilot i was both happy and confused at the same time.
[08:48] <Geoffrey2> harry, those are the directions I followed...they aren't working
[08:48] <the_Kane> keleus: how can i fix all this?
[08:48] <the_Kane> keleus: also, i haven't set up samba.. only installed smbfs and added a line in fstab to mount windows partitions
[08:48] <n30n> Madpilot: well yeah i concluded that if i had none noone sent me any... but i was wonder what it is. is it like a PM mailbox for missed messages
[08:49] <Madpilot> n30n, you can /memo anyone who is registered here - /memo #NICK Msg
[08:49] <harry> keleus: thnx for the warning. i just asked since that what everyone use when using windows XP illegall.
[08:49] <the_Kane> ... i just got kicked by windows again
[08:49] <keleus> Amaranth, with D2, lots of people have issues getting the copy protection to function. one workaround is to crack it. see http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=74
[08:49] <n30n> Madpilot: hm. cool. so its like a PM for if their offline?
[08:50] <Madpilot> n30n, exactly - it works whether someone is online or off
[08:50] <n30n> Madpilot: gotcha.
[08:50] <harry> Geoffrey2: what are you trying to install???
[08:50] <Amaranth> keleus: That does not make it any more appropriate for this channel.
[08:50] <keleus> harry, here for more information: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=74
[08:50] <dauddaud> .
[08:50] <keleus> Amaranth, cracking a cd protection is in no way illegal.
[08:50] <keleus> but again, i will defer rather than argue
[08:51] <the_Kane> keleus: how can i fix all this?
[08:51] <the_Kane> keleus: also, i haven't set up samba.. only installed smbfs and added a line in fstab to mount windows partitions
[08:51] <keleus> the_Kane, one way is to set up samba so your linux machine is on a different workgroup
[08:51] <n30n> keleus: it's only illegal to crack cd protection if you copy and sell the contents
[08:51] <iiiears> the_kane - Sounds really frustrating. If the linux router project IPCop, or Astara ($$$) isn't interesting. Maybe Ebay for some used hardware to do RAS?
[08:51] <keleus> you can still mount the smb
[08:51] <harry> Geoffrey2: the sun java worked on me when i was trying to install frostwire using AnyOS...
[08:52] <the_Kane> keleus: how can i set up samba to do that?
[08:52] <garryfre> Or give the copies away I suppose.
[08:52] <keleus> that would fix the browser election issue, anyways
[08:52] <the_Kane> iiiears: id really rather not buy new hardware :S
[08:52] <dsas> n30n: That's not true in the US or in Europe (see the DMCA and the EUCD)
[08:52] <keleus> the_Kane, you can edit the configuration files. I suggest reading up on SWAT (web based samba configuration tool).
[08:53] <n30n> dsas: yes it is. It's illegal still in US and Europe but they don't really impose it on you unless you are selling it
[08:53] <keleus> the_Kane, or you can just change your windows machine's workgroup :)
[08:53] <the_Kane> keleus: you got a link?
[08:53] <garryfre> I find it strange, that many companies make rules, saying it's illegal to do this or that, but these rule makers are not part of a legislative branch of any government.
[08:53] <dsas> n30n: So you just agreed with me, it's illegal.
[08:53] <keleus> swat is in the repositories
[08:53] <keleus> heres some information on it:
[08:53] <the_Kane> keleus: yeh that sounds easier :P how do i do that (change the windows workgroup...)
[08:53] <keleus> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=74
[08:53] <avis> well if you give away the contents its also illegal
[08:53] <arnold> hello
[08:53] <n30n> dsas: only formally. If you look at it in comparison to other places its just as legal as anywhere eles
[08:53] <harry> Who knows DotA allstars here????
[08:54] <keleus> the_Kane, you should be able to do it from right clicking "My Computer" and going under properties. i forget which tab, though
[08:54] <n30n> dsas: they just have a scare tatctic law
[08:54] <arnold> I'd need some help with samba
[08:54] <the_Kane> keleus: would i still be able to access the shared folders?
[08:54] <n30n> arnold: go on
[08:54] <dsas> n30n: That doesn't make it legal.
[08:54] <keleus> the_Kane, stupid clipboard... real link is here http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/SWAT.html
[08:54] <n30n> dsas: well how illegal is it if the only thing they do about you doing it is nothing?
[08:54] <garryfre> And some companies give you a eula that gives away your rights. Basically you can give up priveleges but not rights, so that the only ones that can take your rights away are authorities otherwise such contracts are null and void.
[08:54] <keleus> the_Kane, yes. browsing for shares wont work, but specifying the IP address or hostname of the server to connect to will
[08:55] <keleus> the_Kane, which sounds like what you are doing, if you set it up in fstab
[08:55] <n30n> dsas: AHHHH THIS IS SUCH A POLICITAL OFFTOPIC THING
[08:55] <garryfre> The trick is knowing what is your rights and what are your priveleges.
[08:55] <the_Kane> keleus: well ill go and see if i can change the windows workgroup now...
[08:55] <keleus> the_Kane, beware, doing so will make windows restart
[08:55] <Geoffrey2> I installed the Java JRE for ubuntu...it installed...then the wiki instructions tell me to use sudo update-alternatives to make the Sun version the default for the various java formats...but for the most part I cannot do that
[08:55] <arnold> the windows computers on my network don't have access to my samba server whereas my samba can see every shared folders of the Win computers...
[08:55] <garryfre> Hmmm, your right. back to ontopic mode
[08:55] <avis> n30n, not if its practical relating to ubuntu :)
[08:55] <iiiears> Hey, Everyone loves Ubuntu. - Talk about laws, Politics, Wares in channel and we undermine the chance to help new linux users. - please stop.
[08:56] <avis> #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:56] <keleus> the_Kane, silly as it is... i would suggest doing so anyways (so random people don't see your shares in network places if they get on your network somehow)
[08:56] <arnold> windows doesn't have permission....
[08:56] <n30n> dsas: ok. yes you are right. it is illegal. I am only saying that i don't view it as illegal because they don't do anything about you doing it.
[08:56] <n30n> dsas: they only time they do is when you copy and sell, and that goes into a totally different law
[08:56] <keleus> Amaranth, im sorry, the whole thing got brought up from my chats with harry
[08:56] <garryfre> Tacit approval by inaction.
[08:57] <keleus> guys, can we knock the politics off? im aware that I started it, but i should end it then.
[08:57] <Madpilot> n30n, garryfre, keleus & others: #ubuntu-offtopic exists for this sort of chat - take it there or drop it, please
[08:57] <n30n> avis: i just don't like arguing when both sides are just opinionated.
[08:57] <garryfre> slaps self
[08:57] <arnold> ??
[08:57] <keleus> Madpilot, 02:57:10 <keleus> guys, can we knock the politics off? im aware that I started it, but i should end it then.
[08:57] <n30n> AVIS: HA I TOLD YOU
[08:58] <n30n> Madpilot: you just made my day with that! in a good way..
[08:58] <harry> keleus: i'm also sorry i did'nt know it was a bad idea
[08:58] <Madpilot> keleus, good, but then you continued it...
[08:58] <keleus> harry, not your fault
[08:58] <anarqi> Whoever made Ubuntu, thank you god, been searching for a distro just like this one
[08:58] <garryfre> Its over.
[08:59] <arnold> n30n: Do you thinj you can help me?
[08:59] <keleus> Madpilot, that was the last thing i said on the issue. you litteraly posted that within 60 seconds of my "lets drop it"  statement
[08:59] <n30n> anarqi: its community designed
[08:59] <keleus> doesnt matter though
[08:59] <n30n> arnold: what do you need buddy
[08:59] <Geoffrey2> well, once again it appears I shall get no answer regarding my apparent java problem.....sigh....
[08:59] <keleus> anarqi, thank Mark Shuttleworth (i think?)
[08:59] <garryfre> there's a linux question coming. Ak away Arnold.
[08:59] <arnold> I want my windows computer on my network to have access to the samba server
[09:00] <anarqi> n30n: well all I can say is cheers ^^ its very clean and easy to use
[09:00] <Madpilot> Geoffrey2, which Java problem?
[09:00] <n30n> keleus: its a community project
[09:00] <n30n> anarqi: it is indeed
[09:00] <keleus> well, someone has to be at the top, at least figuratively
[09:00] <harry> Geoffrey2: whats the problem with your JAVA
[09:00] <keleus> my java is cold.
[09:00] <n30n> keleus: true. founder
[09:01] <n30n> keleus: i love java. both the drink and the langauge
[09:01] <anarqi> I came from slack, and while it was clean it was not easy to use. I am so glad I found Ubuntu
[09:01] <keleus> anarqi, take a look at xubuntu
[09:01] <keleus> anarqi, uses XFCE instead of Gnome (or KDE like kubuntu)
[09:01] <keleus> real clean
[09:01] <arnold> acually I'm using dapper and it doesn't work since then....
[09:01] <n30n> anarqi: xubuntu is the way to go
[09:01] <Geoffrey2> once again, the wiki documents say that in order to make the SUN version the default, I am supposed to use 'sudo update-alternatives' for each java class (java, jar, javac, etc) that I want the SUN version to handle by default...however, almost all of them report back that no alternatives are available
[09:02] <anarqi> i have used xfce, its nice, but hmm dunno, the file browser was the pits
[09:02] <keleus> anarqi, you could always install nautilus and launch it on demand
[09:02] <keleus> :)
[09:02] <polpak> Geoffrey2: you sure you installed the sun version?
[09:03] <n30n> arnold: didn't you say you needed something
[09:03] <arnold> I did
[09:03] <anarqi> I'll look into it. I'm just going to fiddle with plain ole ubuntu for now.
[09:03] <arnold>  I want my windows computer on my network to have access to the samba server
[09:03] <n30n> arnold: besure you put my name and : so i can see it in yellow so i don't miss your stuff
[09:03] <garryfre> samba is over my head atm
[09:03] <n30n> arnold: there is a section for that
[09:03] <arnold> It isn't the case but in contrary my samba has access to windows
[09:04] <arnold> I know but it didn't work tough
[09:04] <anarqi> btw anyone used the flgrx driver? i noticed it doesnt like to work well with wine
[09:04] <arnold> which section?
[09:04] <n30n> arnold: alright. Hold on
[09:04] <arnold> n30n: ok great
[09:04] <keleus> anarqi, if you ever want to try, you can install the package "xubuntu-desktop" and the other "xubuntu-" packages
[09:05] <anarqi> oh? that would save me the hassle of downloading another iso ^^
[09:05] <harry> what kind of package do i have to get to install Yahoo messenger on ubuntu.
[09:05] <n30n> arnold: im just trying to find that thingy again. sorry. jsut a minute
[09:05] <arnold> n30n: fine thanks
[09:05] <hangfire> man that sounds like a pain, didnt know it was that hard to set up Sun Java in ubuntu
[09:05] <harry> what kind of package do i have to get to install Yahoo messenger on ubuntu.
[09:06] <garryfre> Gaim might handle yahoo messenger.
[09:06] <avis> garryfre, for what its worth -- i've never been able to gksudo anything until today.  either my agp card wasn't totally seated or my former lcd monitor wouldn't let me -- i guess.
[09:06] <n30n> arnold: ok. idk how well it works but if you go to places and nerworkservers
[09:06] <gwark> it does
[09:06] <Geoffrey2> polpak, I checked synaptic, sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre are both checked as installed
[09:06] <asipi> harry: gaim or kopete can handle yahoo protocol
[09:06] <anarqi> hangfire: what do you mean? java works fine on my comp
[09:06] <arnold> harry: gaim does
[09:06] <PHiSQuaRE> Anyone a DB programmer?  I'm looking for a good reference on SQL/triggers/materialized views....preferably a book
[09:06] <gwark> dont thing they handle webcams tho
[09:06] <gwark> gaim is cool
[09:06] <garryfre> say avis yep, loose cards sink computers.
[09:06] <harry> asipi: tnx. but i already used gaim. i just want to try using the yahoo messenger only
[09:06] <n30n> arnold: you go to file and connect
[09:07] <avis> ok garryfre.  i hope that was the case.
[09:07] <harry> asipi: tnx. but i already used gaim. i just want to try using the yahoo messenger only just for a while
[09:07] <anarqi> asipi, actually any jabber client can handle yahoo if run thru a gateway service
[09:07] <arnold> n30n: How do you do that
[09:07] <arnold> ?
[09:07] <asipi> yep
[09:07] <gwark> does Gaim have a version 2 in linux yet ?
[09:07] <anarqi> yep gwark
[09:08] <anarqi> im using the beta
[09:08] <asipi> have yahoo messenger  native linux support? I dunno...
[09:08] <n30n> arnold: are you in the nerwork window
[09:08] <iiiears> harry - Yahoo messenger will work with Wine. Though configuring it for sound/webcam is very complex.
[09:08] <arnold> I am
[09:08] <avis> though i have another computer i'm going to but xubuntu as sole os on because it will install on it (wont on this one for some reason) unless -- the above stated reasons.  well, it wouldn't gksudo either so i'm thinking changes of 2 agp cards with a lock in back is not the cause of not being able to gksudo.  i had run gnome previously on that comp.
[09:08] <n30n> arnold: go to file and connect to server
[09:08] <arnold> n30n: i am
[09:08] <garryfre> Seems gaim that I have doesn't show yahoo messenger as a choice.
 does v2b handle webcams yet >?
[09:09] <arnold> n30n: ok end then?
[09:09] <harry> iiiears: am i able to use the webcam when using gaim???
[09:09] <gwark> ive used the windows version...
[09:09] <anarqi> hmm let me check gwark
[09:09] <avis> garryfre, thr yahoo and ICQ protocols are shared in the selection prefs.  of gaim i believe.
[09:09] <gwark> thankyou anarqi
[09:09] <garryfre> cool. thanks!
[09:09] <n30n> arnold: i think windows share will do it. IDK if thats what you wanted though
[09:10] <n30n> arnold: it should make it where it creates a shared folder and connection
[09:10] <iiiears> harry - I don't use a webcam. - soryy.
[09:10] <polpak> Geoffrey2: and you did sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:10] <n30n> I dont have the face for webcams
[09:11] <avis> i dont want to show my face when communicating.
[09:11] <anarqi> gwark: to be honest i dont see any option for webcam in my gaim
[09:11] <arnold> n30n: yes it works in this way . I just have to browse network but windows computers still don't have access to samba server will they??
[09:11] <Geoffrey2> polpak, yep, and for java that worked fine
[09:11] <polpak> Geoffrey2: oh.. what other ones are you trying to do?
[09:11] <n30n> arnold: Okay in windows go to control panel and network connections
[09:11] <Geoffrey2> polpak, however, when I tried sudo update-alternatives --config jar, sun didn't show as an option
[09:11] <the_Kane> keleus: well i've changed my workgroups name on the windows machine, so you think this should solve my problem?
[09:12] <n30n> arnold: and add windows network. from there you will have to config yourself
[09:12] <gwark> anarqi, many thanks for checking
[09:12] <Geoffrey2> although the wiki doc says it should
[09:12] <iiiears> harry - SourceForge Project is the place to look. Usually a bit of code there to what you want.
[09:12] <anarqi> is there a site for ubuntu that gives tips on speeding up boot or the loading of applications?
[09:12] <polpak> Geoffrey2: did you install the jdk ?
[09:12] <n30n> arnold: in this situtation the only way i know how to make both connect tis to indiviual connect them to eachother
[09:12] <polpak> Geoffrey2: jar worked fine for me...
[09:12] <keleus> the_Kane, yes. the message in your log told me that your linux samba was confusing your windows box, and as a result windows was killing the master browser service (which incedently kills a few other services, some of which are required for NAT forwarding and such)
[09:13] <the_Kane> keleus: lol how did you get all that out of those errors :P
[09:13] <keleus> the_Kane, lots and lots of windows experience
[09:13] <n30n> the_Kane: years of pratice
[09:13] <n30n> practice*
[09:14] <keleus> the_Kane, A+ and Network+ certs, which are very windows-centric
[09:14] <keleus> but theres lots of raw TCP/IP stuff in there too
[09:14] <arnold> n30n: windows and samba server are on the same workgrou
[09:14] <the_Kane> keleus: lol well thanks for your help! :D
[09:14] <anarqi> keleus you ever take any cisco networking classes?
[09:14] <keleus> ive even got some cisco under my belt :)
[09:14] <arnold> n30n: workgroup
[09:14] <Geoffrey2> polpak, according to wiki, jdk is installed when you install sun-java5-bin, and Synaptic says it is installed
[09:14] <n30n> arnold: yes but you need to get around the fact that windows hates other oses and kills auto config
[09:15] <anarqi> i took a year of cisco networking, learned quite a bit, and forgot a crapload more
[09:15] <keleus> I took a single networking class for it all (skipped the servicing class) - i was working on getting my CCNA but i didnt have time - I only got far enough to do basic routing with cisco routers and switches
[09:15] <arnold> n30n: How do I do it then? I can't see it
[09:15] <avis> i dont think the jdk used to be a dependency of that package until recently so perhaps he just need to re-fetch it.
[09:15] <n30n> keleus: no fair you can skip that one
[09:15] <keleus> we had a nice CISCO IOS simulation software
[09:15] <polpak> Geoffrey2: well I dunno what to tell ya. sudo update-alternatives --config jar works fine here
[09:15] <keleus> n30n, heh, i proved i could do it :)
[09:15] <keleus> n30n, im also a SkillsUSA/VICA state champion :P
[09:16] <n30n> keleus: did you test out?
[09:16] <anarqi> geoffrey: try purging your java and starting over with polpaks recommendation
[09:16] <keleus> n30n, no, i had a friend in the servicing class the year before, he talked to the instructor and i just went into the second class. didn't have any issues
[09:16] <n30n> arnold: on your windows computer go to google and search google for networking with samba
[09:16] <iiiears> keleus - Glad you are here for networking questions.
[09:16] <n30n> keleus: im jealous
[09:17] <n30n> keleus: what school was this
[09:17] <the_Kane> also, does annyone know what Xbox360 controller you need to work on linux? is it the standerd xbox controller, or the controller for windows?
[09:17] <keleus> Mid-Maine technical center, in waterville maine
[09:17] <keleus> vocational center
[09:17] <arnold> n30n: and then?
[09:17] <keleus> iiiears, thanks ( im assuming your not being sarcastic :) ).
[09:17] <garryfre> !xbox
[09:17] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, garryfre
[09:17] <n30n> arnold: idk. what does it tell you?
[09:17] <anarqi> i took the cisco networking at Anthis Career Center, a half day school program for juniors and seniors
[09:17] <keleus> im also an ISOC member :P
[09:18] <CaptainMorgan_> is gaim compatiable with kde?
[09:18] <n30n> keleus: i almost got into MIT... :( almost
[09:18] <keleus> anarqi, it was a half-a-day thing for me as well
[09:18] <iiiears> keleus - I wish you were here more often.
[09:18] <arnold> n30n: I have a few links!
[09:18] <harry> Cancelling an upgrade to 6.06 LTS won't affect my GDM right???
[09:18] <anarqi> captain, yes, provided you have gtk libraries installed
[09:18] <Geoffrey2> anarqi, so what packages should I take out?
[09:18] <CaptainMorgan_> anarqi: apt-get gaim?
[09:18] <keleus> n30n, i would have gone somewhere like that, but my normal school grades sucked - i only did what i needed and got Ds and Cs. Bs and As in maths and computer-related classes though :)
[09:18] <n30n> keleus: they accepted based on my SAT but then rejected me when they saw my transcript.
[09:18] <anarqi> apt-get install gaim
[09:18] <n30n> keleus: YES THATS JSUT LIK EME
[09:19] <avis> a old friend went to MIT.  he was my weird high school buddy.  probably uhm the oddest genius you'd ever meet at a catholic college prep school :)
[09:19] <keleus> Good SATs here as well :)
[09:19] <harry> Cancelling an upgrade to 6.06 LTS through the update manager won't affect my GDM right???
[09:19] <harry> Cancelling an upgrade to 6.06 LTS through the update manager won't affect my GDM right???
[09:19] <keleus> im going to a community college. A degree is better than nothing right?
[09:19] <n30n> keleus: by far
[09:19] <avis> myself, a GED is my only formal education.
[09:19] <garryfre> I would not reccoment canceling an upgrade to 6.06 unless both your old ubuntu and the lastest dapper have the same xserver version.
[09:19] <n30n> keleus: what i plan to do is get all the degrees, and then transfer into MIT
[09:19] <n30n> keleus: well the basic ones
[09:19] <keleus> n30n, going for Computer Informations Technology (associate degree, business) and im hoping to go further into information systems security
[09:20] <keleus> i could go to ITT.
[09:20] <keleus> expensive though
[09:20] <anarqi> i revert to console when i update stuff so as not to run into that issue
[09:20] <n30n> keleus: that place isn't bad
[09:21] <Geoffrey2> ok, I removed sun java....just install it again, or should I remove anything else first?
[09:21] <|lostbyte|> Which package contails monfonts ?
[09:21] <n30n> keleus: i'm going for an MSITP degree and UNIX administrations specialist cert
[09:21] <Madpilot> keleus & n30n - move the chat to -offtopic, please

[09:23] <the_Kane> keleus: it didn't work!!
[09:23] <the_Kane> keleus: windows just kicked me off again
[09:23] <hangfire> can you remove jdk?
[09:23] <arnold> n30n: actually it works. I have access to the samba server by doing \\IP in RUN.....
[09:23] <enquest> And how do I repport this. I mean How can I get enough information for the ubuntu team
[09:23] <arnold> n30n: but it just works in this way.... strange
[09:23] <keleus> the_Kane, Hmm.... is the message in the event log any different?
[09:24] <Madpilot> enquest, what's the bug?
[09:24] <n30n> arnold: windows doesn't trust it to be connected the other way. \\IP is like remote pc
[09:24] <enquest> Each time I click on the update butten my screen get weird and I'm kicked out of gnome. The third time the system blocks
[09:24] <n30n> arnold: if you wanna think of it this way, it doesnt wanna share
[09:24] <n30n> arnold: it wants to take
[09:25] <enquest> I need to restart... I'm using Ubuntu dapper drake since 1 juni and had many updates since
[09:25] <the_Kane> keleus: just checked it, something about browser control terminated, time expired
[09:25] <enquest> so this is a new one and a bug
[09:25] <the_Kane> keleus: do you need me to copy the full error?
[09:25] <keleus> the_Kane, if you would (to pastebin, for the channel's sake)
[09:25] <enquest> How can I make the error repport...
[09:25] <the_Kane> brb
[09:25] <arnold> n30n: windows makes everything to not share???
[09:26] <n30n> arnold: in this case yes. for some reason or anoughter it doesn't want to SHARE with samba server
[09:26] <keleus> heh. even with everything locked down, if i have your administrator password i can get to your hard drive (full access!) with \\XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX\c$
[09:26] <keleus> windows creates that share at bootup
[09:26] <arnold> n30n: because I can't do it by browsing the network??
[09:26] <Geoffrey2> well, let me put it this way....wiki talks about java, jar, javac, javadoc, javah, javap and javaws.....which of those am I actually likely to need to be able to use simply as an enduser?
[09:26] <arnold> n30n: is \\IP an other application?
[09:26] <Madpilot> enquest, follow the URL above, create an LP account if you don't have one already, and just make as clear a report as you can - the bug team will ask for more details and help you gather them
[09:27] <keleus> arnold, no, \\ is a prefix to tell windows your giving a network sharing address, IP is the IP address
[09:27] <iiiears> Madpilot - The gnome taskbar crashed with a video resolution change in WINE.  All  of the icons moved to a small space on the right.  Including the "Applications" "Places" "System" . Can i edit a file to move them back?   Replacing them means their convenient labels disappear.
[09:27] <enquest> Ok Madpilot but I think I will solve it with apt-get, I hope
[09:27] <n30n> arnold: its the same thing.
[09:27] <the_Kane> pastebin.com/710212
[09:27] <enquest> the repport will be made
[09:27] <the_Kane> ^^keleus
[09:27] <keleus> reading
[09:28] <arnold> n30n: yes but it doesn't seem to work when I go to "favoris rseau"
[09:28] <keleus> er, thats not good...
[09:28] <Madpilot> iiiears, not sure - the standard three menus are in Add To Panel, though
[09:28] <keleus> your windows machine is having some issues (its safe to say windows itself is the fault of your issues)
[09:28] <Madpilot> need sleep here - night, all
[09:29] <keleus> you changed only your workgroup, right?
[09:29] <the_Kane> keleus: whats the problem? and do you know how to fix it?
[09:29] <the_Kane> yeh
[09:29] <keleus> looks like the browser hung on something and windows terminated it.
[09:29] <polpak> Geoffrey2: java is pretty much all you need
[09:29] <keleus> i really don't know what would cause that paticular issue
[09:30] <polpak> Geoffrey2: unless you're doing development in jav
[09:30] <n30n> arnold: ask keleus
[09:30] <polpak> Geoffrey2: java
[09:30] <the_Kane> keleus: what do you mean "the browser hung on something and windows terminated it" ?
[09:30] <n30n> arnold: he knows better than me
[09:30] <keleus> the_Kane, first thing i would do is give the system a THOROUGH check for worms and such.
[09:30] <Geoffrey2> polpak, ok, then since I already have sun set up as the default for java, I'll just ignore the rest of it
[09:30] <jgonzalez> hi
[09:30] <n30n> keleus: i like how you caped through
[09:30] <iiiears> Madpilot - Okay. - Can i edit the gnome taskbar labels to say something like. "Great Apps" "My Empire" and "The inner Machinations"?  (Too Grandious? - NVM) - rofl
[09:30] <jgonzalez> i have upgrade from brezy to dapper, and now, i can't use the function "switch user"
[09:30] <the_Kane> keleus: i've done virus scans, adware, malware etc etc scans..
[09:30] <n30n> keleus: thorough*
[09:31] <jgonzalez> when screen locks i only see the old xscreensaver screen for enter password
[09:31] <keleus> the_Kane, the "browser service" is basically a program that monitors the windows network, talks to other windows machines, and makes windows sharing work.
[09:31] <arnold> keleus: Why can I have access to my samba serveur by doing \\IP and not throught the browser? throught "favoris rseau"??!
[09:31] <anarqi> the_Kane: the error you posted means that it pinged out
[09:31] <polpak> Geoffrey2: well and of those, only jar I think even has alternatives.. javac and the rest only have one package which provides it
[09:31] <keleus> arnold, you need to be on the same "workgroup"
[09:31] <anarqi> in most cases that means a nat or firewall problem
[09:31] <the_Kane> do you know how i can fix that?
[09:31] <arnold> I am?
[09:31] <harry> Does GAIM enable us to use a webcam when chatting???
[09:32] <arnold> keleus: I think I am!
[09:32] <arnold> How can I be sure?
[09:32] <n30n> arnold & keleus: i think windows is terminating the browser process.
[09:32] <keleus> arnold, also, the samba server must be set to allow public browsing
[09:32] <Geoffrey2> ok, different question, I installed the Ubuntu Adobe Reader package...how would I go about making that the default reader for pdf files?
[09:32] <keleus> n30n, arnold has a seperate issue that the_Kane
[09:32] <extigy> hello everybody, can everyone help me with APT? i'm a newbie
[09:32] <arnold> keleus: How do I do that?
[09:32] <n30n> keleus: what was the_kane's problem
[09:32] <Hobbsee> !tell extigy about apt-get
[09:32] <extigy> !tell?
[09:32] <Geoffrey2> polpak, really?  curious then that the wiki documents suggest you should be able to make the sun version the default for all of them....oh well, since I don't need them, I won't worry about it
[09:33] <XVampireX> Yo, Ubuntu alternates between working really fast to really slow... I'm confused.
[09:33] <keleus> n30n, hes using his windows machine as a gateway, but the browser service keeps timing out/dying/breaking and the windows networking stack goes to crap (and disconnects him) untill all the services restart
[09:33] <XVampireX> I mean sometimes it's working fast, sometimes it's working slow
[09:33] <iiiears> Madpilot - I was joking. - seriously, Do you know where the gnome taskbar app. is located?
[09:33] <polpak> Geoffrey2: the sun version is the default for all of them by default unless you also installed blackdown's versions
[09:33] <XVampireX> Most of the time slow
[09:33] <polpak> Geoffrey2: except java and jar
[09:33] <n30n> keleus: i just thought that for arnold because windows is very untrusting and does that for alot of thing
[09:34] <XVampireX> Anyone knows what my problem could be?
[09:34] <keleus> arnold, im not sure, ive always used things like SWAT (http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/SWAT.html) to configure samba.
[09:34] <the_Kane> keleus: is there any way i can just 're-install' the browser service?
[09:34] <iiiears> Geoffrey - Poking about i found a file called "magic" - Does that change file asscoiations?
[09:35] <keleus> n30n, windows is VERY trusting. doesn't matter if im on a different subnet, if i know his IP and have a clear path through the firewall, i can get into his C:\ drive with his administrator password.
[09:35] <keleus> n30n, and the only way to turn that off is a registry hack
[09:35] <keleus> the_Kane, unfortunatly, no.
[09:35] <keleus> the_Kane, can I ask why the windows machine is your gateway?
[09:35] <the_Kane> keleus: do you have an idea of how to fix it?
[09:35] <n30n> keleus: i know. I didn't mean untrusting like that
[09:35] <Geoffrey2> iiiears, I have about one week of total experience with Ubuntu...I'm most certainly not qualified to answer anything about it
[09:35] <arnold> keleus: I'll try that! well anyway It still works with \\IP but it isn't very comftortable...
[09:35] <zewo> iiiears: /etc/mailcap changes associations with mime types
[09:35] <iiiears> keleus - How do you discover the default password without setting up limited user accounts?
[09:36] <keleus> the_Kane, not without a lot of fiddling around on the machine. it's definatly beyond what i can help you with remotely
[09:36] <n30n> keleus: in my experience windows wil think its not working and try to close it when it doesn't really need to be closed. idk mabye thats just probs i've had
[09:36] <iiiears> zewo - Wonderful. - Thank You.
[09:36] <keleus> the_Kane, my first impulse is "bug" or worm.
[09:36] <the_Kane> keleus: well windows is the family computer with the only internet conenction (dialup) and i wanted to share that with my ubuntu machine so i did it via  a proxy and some wifi equipment
[09:37] <keleus> iiiears, there is no default password, windows is smart in that they deny all remote logins to users with no passwords (administrator is usually one, if your machine came retail)
[09:37] <the_Kane> keleus: well is there any 'notes' you can give me that i can pass onto people that might be able to fix it?
[09:37] <keleus> the_Kane, only those message logs, and that it appears that your samba configuration has a typo in it.
[09:38] <n30n> keleus: what if there is no admin password
[09:38] <keleus> n30n, access will be denied
[09:38] <n30n> keleus: hm
[09:38] <the_Kane> keleus: but i haven't configured samba :S only installed smbfs and added a line in fstab... i just installed dapper yesterday and haven't touched samba
[09:38] <keleus> n30n, but it will take the login/password of any member of the administrators group (read: 99% of windows users)
[09:38] <bulltitan> wassup
[09:39] <zewo> anybody else unable to see the changes / description text on the automatic software updates ? perhaps its because there is no change / description text but its a little annoying would be nice to see what was fixed, always used to say what was being fixed by the update in breezy
[09:39] <keleus> the_Kane, not saying it's your fault - and it could be a bug in the way windows is parsing the SMB packets from your linux box
[09:39] <iiiears> keleus - so "Owner" "Administrator" will answer the password challenge for samba? - Can it be changed locally/remotely?
[09:39] <robert_[vodka] > hm
[09:39] <bulltitan> what is the choice other than wine to play some windows games?
[09:39] <keleus> iiiears, maybe this should be in #security :)
[09:39] <the_Kane> keleus: yeh i wasn't trying to sounds rude then, but i was just confused how samba could be configured wrong when it isn't configured :S
[09:39] <keleus> iiiears, im not sure what your asking
[09:39] <robert_[vodka] > how do I change my server's ip/dns information using the server distro
[09:39] <robert_[vodka] > ?
[09:39] <Healot> WINE doesn't get me drunk
[09:39] <darich> hey everyone
[09:39] <keleus> the_Kane, heh...
[09:39] <darich> got a question
[09:40] <darich> just installed Google earth
[09:40] <bulltitan> then what does Healot
[09:40] <bulltitan> :P
[09:40] <keleus> the_Kane, the reason i say to check for worms/spyware is when those cause issues, its usually the services that start crashing/restarting
[09:40] <darich> and it's not using my ATI card for the accelerated graphics
[09:40] <n30n> keleus: how do i look at the stuff on the c:/ drive remotely? I have a comp downstairs with windows XP, could i access its c drive and upload files from it without monking iwth remote pc
[09:40] <darich> it's hammering my CPU instead
[09:40] <billytwowilly> whats the name of the package that installs all the compiler stuff?
[09:40] <keleus> the_Kane, and when those die, programs that depend on them (outlook, IE, etc) crash
[09:40] <zewo> robert_[vodka] : you change the network settings using ifconfig ('man ifconfig') or manually editing the file /etc/network/interfaces
[09:40] <keleus> n30n, ok. the syntax from a linux machine is different, so assuming your on a windows box:
[09:41] <the_Kane> keleus: what programs can you recommend to check these things? i have AVG, Ad-Aware, Spybot, Zonealarm, Hijackthis ?
[09:41] <iiiears> keleus - lol - you are right. - I just couldn't get samba working without using user accounts. (My wife hates the slow boot up and trusts everyone. even Nigerian embassadors. - lol).
[09:41] <bulltitan> nah really i've read some about some app called cedega? is it another emulator?
[09:41] <enquest> I can't submit this bug. Each time I want to submit it "Before reporting a bug, please ensure it hasnt been reported already." Yet I checked this
[09:41] <xice> ad-aware is bs, dont use at all
[09:41] <keleus> n30n, in the run dialog box, type "\\HOSTNAME\c$" and hit enter. replace HOSTNAME with the hostanme of the machine, or the IP address (i would recommend IP address)
[09:41] <n30n> keleus: im on a ubuntu dapper box
[09:41] <keleus> n30n, hold on a second...
[09:42] <keleus> n30n, "smbmount //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword"
[09:42] <enquest> MadPilot, I can't submit this bug. Each time I want to submit it "Before reporting a bug, please ensure it hasnt been reported already." Yet I checked this
[09:43] <blimpdude> hi anyone know how i can release my IP address?
[09:43] <Healot> Samba!
[09:43] <keleus> n30n, sharename would be "c$" (its case sensetive)
[09:43] <robert_[vodka] > bha
[09:43] <robert_[vodka] > bah*
[09:43] <keleus> servername would be the computers IP address
[09:43] <n30n> keleus: ok. gotcha. so in windows. Does it prompt for the password after i enter \\(host)\c$ ?
[09:43] <keleus> or, you could change smbmount to mount, and add "-t smbfs" to the command line
[09:43] <Healot> blimpdude: in Windows?
[09:44] <keleus> n30n, yes, unless you are logged in as that user with the same password on your machine
[09:44] <blimpdude> Healot, no
[09:44] <keleus> n30n, in which case login will be automatic
[09:44] <n30n> keleus: ok. now the new delema. there is no password whatsoever ot the computer downstairs
[09:44] <enquest> MadPilot, I can't submit this bug. Each time I want to submit it "Before reporting a bug, please ensure it hasnt been reported already." Yet I checked this
[09:44] <robert_[vodka] > bah
[09:44] <keleus> n30n, if it doesnt, right click my computer, and click "map network drive" - you can map the share to a driveletter and it has the option to specify a username and password
[09:44] <robert_[vodka] > my server went down
[09:44] <robert_[vodka] > well
[09:44] <robert_[vodka] > not my server, but it's internet
[09:44] <keleus> n30n, it will not work without a password
[09:45] <enquest> Hobbsee,
[09:45] <arnold> keleus: please could you help me with swat... How do you start with it?
[09:45] <Healot> blimpdude: you can do either "ifdown <interface> && ifup <interface>"
[09:45] <n30n> keleus: i can just run downthere and slap an administrative password then
[09:45] <anarqi> poor poor keleus
[09:45] <anarqi> lol
[09:45] <keleus> arnold, install swat and run /etc/init.d/inetd restart
[09:45] <blimpdude> Healot, i also want to renew, and these commands dont do that
[09:45] <n30n> keleus: does it have to be for the administrator account?
[09:45] <Healot> well both at the same time, or asynchronously... blimpdude
[09:46] <blimpdude> Healot, thanks tho
[09:46] <keleus> then it should open on http://localhost:901/
[09:46] <n30n> keleus: by that i mean the account that is named administrator
[09:46] <Geoffrey2> ok, I'm gonna ask this one last time before I head off to bed....I installed the Adobe Reader...when I open a pdf file in an email or click on it in file manager, it still opens up the default document reader...how would I go about changing the file association so it opens with adobe reader?
[09:46] <iiiears> keleus - Ah, Option to set a password for that shared drive. - problem solved. - Thank You.
[09:46] <zewo> blimpdude: if you are using DHCP then the commands will release and renew
[09:46] <Healot> blimpdude: or invoke-rc.d networking restart (this will restart ALL interfaces though)
[09:46] <keleus> n30n, no, but when you make the user, make sure its an administrative account (if home edition) or a member of the administrators group (in professional edition)
[09:47] <arnold> keleus: it says no such file or directory and i did install it
[09:47] <keleus> hmm
[09:47] <anarqi> /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:47] <blimpdude> zewo, i tried that and it doesnt work... im looking at dhcpcd -k eth0 tho now
[09:47] <iiiears> keleus - Why a mamber of the administrator group?
[09:47] <blimpdude> that might work.
[09:47] <robert_[vodka] > okay- why has my network lag gone up?
[09:47] <robert_[vodka] > brb
[09:47] <vranikx> hello all
[09:48] <n30n> keleus: gotcha. i was just making sure it didn't have to be the administrator accout itself or just one of the group
[09:48] <robert_[vodka] > rebooting my network
[09:48] <anarqi> arnold do a search for swat
[09:48] <keleus> iiiears, that makes the user an administrator. the "c$" is ahidden share of C:\ with full read and write... its only open to administrator accounds (administrator or any member of the group "administartors")
[09:48] <blimpdude> nope
[09:48] <CaptainMorgan_> where's the executable for gaim?
[09:48] <keleus> n30n, yea, only needs to be a group member
[09:48] <CaptainMorgan_> not in .gaim/
[09:48] <zewo> blimpdude: do you just want the ip address to change? because if are using DHCP and you release and then renew without another computer requesting an ip address in between those two operations then you'll just get the exact same ip address again
[09:48] <robert_[vodka] > zewo: I can just change 'dhcp' to whichever IP I want, correct?
[09:49] <arnold> anarqi: How do you di that?
[09:49] <n30n> keleus: ok.
[09:49] <blimpdude> zewo, ya i wanna change IP address... flush the cache
[09:49] <robert_[vodka] > aha
[09:49] <n30n> keleus: are you sure about the no password viod thing? because my friend has view my box from his house in that similar way before and i had no pass
[09:49] <anarqi> captian: do you have show hidden files check in your browser?
[09:49] <CaptainMorgan_> doh.. it's in bin
[09:50] <CaptainMorgan_> thanks anarqi
[09:50] <keleus> n30n, if he explicitly makes a share and gives that user permissions, it will allow. but for the hidden c$ it wont take blank password accounts
[09:50] <keleus> the windows security policy default setting is to dissalow remote connections with blank passwords
[09:50] <CaptainMorgan_> err... usr/bin
[09:50] <keleus> that includes remote desktop
[09:51] <robert_[vodka] > so, now what do I do? restart panther's network connection?
[09:51] <anarqi> remote desktop is evil
[09:51] <keleus> who was trying to get swat working?
[09:51] <keleus> im loosing track!? lol
[09:51] <anarqi> lol
[09:51] <n30n> anarqi: remote desktop saved my life dude
[09:52] <iiiears> lol
[09:52] <robert_[vodka] > whee
[09:52] <anarqi> n30n i wouldnt use remote desktop if my life depended on me, when i had windows i removed the service from my hdd
[09:52] <keleus> arnold, ok, you need to install the "inetutils-inetd" package. keep in mind this is somewhat of a security risk (it will run echo, whois, etc if configured)
[09:52] <n30n> anarqi: well i like not having to walk to the other computer
[09:53] <bulltitan> i bet you have removed more than just that service in windows
[09:53] <anarqi> i bet bulltitan haha
[09:53] <keleus> arnold, so once you get samba running nicely, i would reccomend removeing SWAT and inetutils-inetd
[09:53] <arnold> keleus: why is it a security risk?
[09:53] <keleus> arnold, open ports are always a risk
[09:53] <keleus> potential points of entry
[09:53] <anarqi> echo flood anyone?
[09:53] <arnold> ok
[09:53] <arnold> keleus: thanks very much
[09:54] <bulltitan> hum i'm starting to love gnomebaker
[09:54] <keleus> arnold, no problem.
[09:54] <n30n> keleus: how do i figure out which ports i have open so i can close them
[09:54] <keleus> arnold, be sure to read (and bookmark) http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/SWAT.html
[09:54] <keleus> n30n, hold on a second
[09:54] <iiiears> netstat ?
[09:54] <n30n> keleus: ones that arent taken by stuff like aim on 5190
[09:54] <arnold> keleus: I did it!
[09:54] <anarqi> n30n, windows (netstat, firewall, or portscan)
[09:54] <bulltitan> and i hate creative
[09:54] <jahshua> hey peeps
[09:55] <n30n> anarqi: linux?
[09:55] <_nano_> Hi, any suggestions for a standalone blogging client apart from gnome-blog?
[09:55] <n30n> anarqi: i know how to in windows
[09:55] <jahshua> what are the options for installing Ubuntu in a minimal configuration?
[09:55] <dsas> _nano_: drivel
[09:55] <keleus> n30n, "netstat -lnp" - thats an L not an i. lowercase L
[09:55] <anarqi> nmap -sT -O localhost
[09:55] <jahshua> it it install and starts too many services for me by default
[09:55] <_nano_> dsas: you've used it? is it good?
[09:55] <keleus> arnold, so swat is working now?
[09:56] <iiiears> <<-- (FAXES keleus an ice cold pepsi). - Thank You keleus.
[09:56] <keleus> arnold, you can open http://localhost:901/
[09:56] <arnold> keleus: I'm trying
[09:56] <anarqi> jahshua get the alternative download
[09:56] <bulltitan> all the mayor monsters like ati and nvidia have linux support,... but nooo creative nooo they wanna be different
[09:56] <keleus> arnold, if inetd is running and swat still wont work.
[09:56] <jahshua> which one anarqi?
[09:56] <keleus> http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/SWAT.html#xinetd tells you how to set inetd to run swat. then you would need to restart inetd.
[09:56] <anarqi> its called alternative download on the ubuntu site
[09:56] <jahshua> oh
[09:56] <jahshua> ha
[09:56] <jahshua> ok thanks
[09:56] <dsas> _nano_: Good? uhm, it allows you to type text in a box and press send. and it has buttons for formatting. It works and gets out the way. I guess it's good.
[09:57] <n30n> keleus how do i close them. and how do i open them incase i need one
[09:57] <_nano_> dsas: that's cool, coz gnome-blog doesn't give me access to the html
[09:57] <keleus> n30n, well, any program can open a port above 1024. only root-run programs can go below that
[09:57] <dsas> _nano_: Oh you get access to the html
[09:57] <n30n> keleus: i see didn't know that
[09:57] <keleus> n30n, the only way to close them is a firewall (man iptables) or closing the programs, or configuring the programs to not open a port
[09:58] <_nano_> dsas: in gnome-blog?
[09:58] <n30n> keleus: i figured
[09:58] <dsas> _nano_: In drivel
[09:58] <keleus> n30n, ports below 1024 are considered service ports, above that for client work (supposedly)
[09:58] <bulltitan> sometimes i have this feeling that i should shut up :P it's just that i left windows in the past and i'm a bit confused and exited for it
[09:58] <_nano_> dsas: yeah that's what I figured
[09:58] <arnold> keleus: I have a 403 Error
[09:58] <arnold> access denied by samba
[09:58] <keleus> n30n, like when you use FTP without passive mode, you open a port above 1024 and the ftp server connects to it
[09:59] <liurd> hello, nice people.
[09:59] <iiiears>  Firestarter firewall will add a graphical interface to IPTables. (I have been told editing iptables by hand is easy and don't believe a word of it.)
[09:59] <liurd> I wanna ask a questions here.
[09:59] <keleus> arnold, you need to set up a samba user.
[09:59] <dsas> liurd: Just ask away
[09:59] <arnold> keleus: It says make sure of hosts allox in smb.conf
[09:59] <keleus> arnold, open a terminal and run smbpasswd --help
[09:59] <n30n> keleus: is there a way you could test the safty of my webserver?
[09:59] <liurd> it's about the system time of ubuntu linux.
[09:59] <arnold> I already have one user
[09:59] <keleus> n30n, yep. give me a minute, gota install something for that
[09:59] <n30n> keleus: or tell me how
[09:59] <arnold> keleus: I have a user
[09:59] <dsas> liurd: We can't help you unless you ask a question :)
[09:59] <keleus> n30n, install nmap and nmapfe, and run them from a different machine (or target your IP address, not localhost)
[10:00] <iiiears> n30n - Safe? - run it from a bootable CD. - lol
[10:00] <bulltitan> the only help i can give you ppl is on video (ati 9600 se here) and modem (adsl usb huawei here)
[10:00] <liurd> the system time is original a few hours eary when i install it. but when i change it back to normal, problem raise.
[10:00] <bulltitan> and off course the pleasure of using ubuntu
[10:00] <liurd> I cann't use the "sudo" command any more, it says: "sudo: timestamp too far in the future"
[10:00] <n30n> iiiears: i meant remotely. i find it unlikely that someone is going to be sitting at my server
[10:01] <kashikoi[rev] > liurd wait the number of hours you chanegd the clock
[10:01] <kashikoi[rev] > and sudo will probly fix itself
[10:01] <kashikoi[rev] > theres also a option to reset the timestamp in man sudo
[10:01] <liurd> dsas, is that the proper solution?
[10:01] <keleus> arnold, "sudo nano -w /etc/smb.conf" (smb.conf might be under /etc/samba/ or /etc/smb/) and see if you have anything under host allow or host deny
[10:01] <n30n> keleus: couldn't i just target 127.0.0.1?
[10:02] <liurd> I doubt there are some other better solutions. I don't think linux is so silly.
[10:02] <keleus> n30n, no, as some programs listen only on loopback
[10:02] <Ademan> on ubuntu, are the microsoft core fonts already supplied?
[10:02] <iiiears> What was the nam the of the program that has a list of exploit to try against a server?
[10:02] <dsas> liurd: it is one of the proper solutions
[10:02] <keleus> n30n, you want to test your IP because thats considered a different interface
[10:02] <liurd> then how if the time is a few days ahead of time?
[10:02] <arnold> keleus: uder host allow I put 192.168.0.
[10:02] <n30n> keleus gotcha
[10:02] <kashikoi[rev] > how can i remove the bittorrent deb package?
[10:02] <keleus> arnold, you need to add 127.0.0. to that list.
[10:03] <keleus> arnold, and then restart samba
[10:03] <liurd> dasa, is there any other solutions?
[10:03] <kashikoi[rev] > when i try to remove it i follow the dependency chain and find i have to remove ubuntu-desktop just to get rid of bittorrent
[10:03] <anarqi> this room needs another chan lol, so many questions from people its hard to keep track
[10:03] <bulltitan> there's only one thing that is not working in ubuntu for me,... subtitles time based srt
[10:03] <liurd> help: sudo: timestamp too far in the future:xxxxxxx
[10:03] <bulltitan> i dunno how to make them work
[10:03] <iiiears> n3on - metasploit - Yikes. - It's enough to turn off your blogging software. My next server is a bootable CD - lol
[10:04] <keleus> arnold, restart samba with "sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart"
[10:04] <dsas> liurd: I think you should be able to use a tty (press ctrl + alt +F1) and log in,
[10:04] <n30n> keleus: alright. I really need to be testing my website for weakspots
[10:04] <keleus> n30n, also consider "ShieldsUP!" on grc,com
[10:04] <keleus> its windows-centric but its got a web-based portscanner
[10:04] <n30n> !ShieldsUP!
[10:04] <ubotu> n30n: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:04] <liurd> dsas, you mean relogin?
[10:04] <n30n> keleus: whats shieldsup!
[10:05] <waterglass> hi, i just got a microsoft ergonomics keytboard to use with my linux and i love it but half the keys aren't recognised on the system, does anyone know of a good program that i can use for this? or a good online how-to? i'm googling away but haven't come up with anything useful yet.. thansk in advance
[10:05] <bulltitan> any idea on srt subtitles?,... with gxine maybe?
[10:05] <iiiears> gibson research
[10:05] <iiiears> grc.com
[10:05] <keleus> n30n, gibson research's web-based portscanner. it scans the computer that connects to it and tells you whats open to the internet
[10:05] <keleus> n30n, i would suggest using nmap rather.
[10:05] <dsas> liurd: Yes, but log in to a tty (not via the graphical way)
[10:05] <Healot> mtr-ng!
[10:06] <n30n> keleus: alright. i was just prying for options
[10:06] <keleus> n30n, no problem. would you like me to scan you?
[10:06] <_Placid> hullo
[10:06] <liurd> dsaf, what differences between the (ctrl-alt-backspace) and (ctrl-alt-F1) login?
[10:06] <n30n> keleus: yeah hold on
[10:07] <anarqi> ctrl+alt+backspace closes the dm, ctl+alt+f1 switches to tty1
[10:07] <clever> ctrl+alt+f7 goes back to the dm
[10:07] <keleus> n30n, make sure you /msg me rather than putting it out in public
[10:07] <n30n> keleus: do you need the url of the site or the ip of the server
[10:07] <keleus> either
[10:07] <n30n> keleus: i wasn't planing on putting out here
[10:07] <keleus> :)
[10:08] <_Placid> liurd: ctrl+alt+backspace restarts X. CTRL+ALT+F1 selects  the first login prompt from the background
[10:08] <n30n> keleus: that would totally defeat my resolve for web secerity
[10:08] <dsas> liurd: sudo keeps track of which tty you used, ctrl+alt+backspace is tty7 (iirc), so you need to use a different tty
[10:08] <keleus> lol. ready when you are
[10:08] <erikneudorfe1> anybody know how i can surch for a files?
[10:08] <CRASH69> hey, how do I close a crashed aplication?
[10:08] <arnold> keleus: It doesn't work
[10:08] <keleus> n30n, do you want me to do a version detection and OS detection as well?
[10:08] <iiiears> keleus - one word "VMWare" - lol
[10:08] <clever> how would i view the details of a deb package to see the effects removing it has?
[10:08] <arnold> keleus : I wrote 192.168.0. 127.0.0.
[10:09] <anarqi> erikneurdorl, goto places menu at the top
[10:09] <anarqi> search is in the menu
[10:09] <liurd> thanks, you guys, it works now...
[10:09] <keleus> arnold, hmm... is that the proper syntax for that line? try making 127.0.0. 127.0.0.1
[10:09] <jahshua> CRASH69 nice nick hehe .. you can use ps x to find the app and then kill -9 pid
[10:09] <chin> i used dd to fill rando data in sata from laptop _it's made before of create encryped partitions_ and now it shows buffer i/o error, and i cannot restart, and memory is full, any help? please
[10:09] <erikneudorfe1> ahhhh thank you so much anarqi, i completly overlooked that
[10:09] <keleus> arnold, or replace the 192.168 part with 127.0.0.1 untill you get it working
[10:09] <arnold> keleus: should I take 192.168.0. out
[10:09] <arnold> ok!!
[10:09] <dsas> liurd: Using graphical sudo works now?
[10:09] <anarqi> doesnt anyone know how to use 'man' haha
[10:10] <liurd> graphical sudo???
[10:10] <clever> dsas i told liurd to sudo -K and that deleted the invalid timestamp
[10:10] <iiiears> gksudo to launch a graphical app with root privelidges
[10:10] <dsas> clever: Ah ok, last time someone had that problem they said that didn't work....
[10:11] <keleus> liurd, "gksudo -S command"
[10:11] <clever> :)
[10:11] <chin> any idea to restart my laptop? please
[10:11] <arnold> keleus: it doesn't work
[10:12] <liurd> keleus, thank you, the problem has been solved under clever's guide, I use sudo -K, and then open another putty window to login.
[10:12] <iiiears> sudo -S <app_name>
[10:12] <CRASH69> jahshua, thx
[10:12] <keleus> arnold, at this point i would start asking in #samba
[10:13] <CaptainMorgan_> why is thunderbird's right hand side extending beyond the viewable screen??
[10:13] <keleus> arnold, its hard for me to do this withought being able to sit at the machine
[10:13] <arnold> keleus: I know thanks very much for your help . I didn't know #samba existed
[10:13] <keleus> arnold, no problem. Good luck!
[10:14] <clever> what happens to my system if i remove the ubuntu-desktop package?
[10:14] <bulltitan> i think i'll try to install windows using wine and see what happens,...
[10:14] <clever> lol
[10:15] <keleus> clever, nothing. its a metapackage that installs the default ubuntu packages
[10:15] <iiiears> bullitan - erm, "VMWare"
[10:15] <clever> good:)
[10:15] <keleus> clever, the only thing that updating would get from that is if they add a new package to the default system
[10:15] <Healot> try that then, bulltitan
[10:15] <bulltitan> :D
[10:15] <clever> i wasnt able to  remove bittorrent because ubuntu=desktop needed it
[10:16] <keleus> same issue here
[10:16] <keleus> your safe
[10:16] <bulltitan> yeah just to tell you ppl how good wine works :P
[10:16] <anarqi> clever you talking about the bittorrent tracker daemon?
[10:16] <keleus> yea
[10:16] <keleus> killit!
[10:16] <clever> just the bittorrent client
[10:16] <iiiears> bullitan - "QEMU", "No Machine" NX server
[10:16] <clever> which was needed bi gnome-bittorrent
[10:16] <clever> which was needed by ubuntu-desktop
[10:17] <keleus> clever, consider installing xubuntu rather than vanilla ubuntu - no gnome, less disk usage
[10:17] <keleus> uses XFCE
[10:17] <keleus> looks similar, the way they set it up
[10:17] <clever> im allready used to gnome atm
[10:17] <bulltitan> be back in a win install from wine,.... or so or maybe on a ubuntu reinstall i dunno
[10:18] <bulltitan> tc penguins
[10:18] <chin> how to run in console mode only from live-cd?
[10:18] <CaptainMorgan_> is there a 'save folder view on exit' in kde?
[10:18] <iiiears> chin - Does F@ - Do it?
[10:18] <iiiears> F2
[10:19] <clever> is there any way to list packages selected to be removes in aptitude?
[10:19] <iiiears> F7 should return you to your desktop
[10:20] <chin> iiiears, i know that using alt+F2 i go to console mode, but i wannot run in graphical mode
[10:20] <chin> i neead all memory
[10:21] <clever> /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:21] <clever> after your in text mode
[10:21] <clever> it will shutdown the gnome display manager
[10:21] <clever> which closes the X server along with it
[10:21] <keleus> apt-get remove gdm
[10:21] <gypsymauro> hello
[10:21] <clever> wont be as effective keleus since its a livecd
[10:21] <keleus> aw
[10:22] <clever> reboot and the effect is gone:P
[10:22] <gypsymauro> can I download gstreamer plugins without care about licence? or I need to check everyone?
[10:22] <keleus> heh, unmount your hard drives and try this:
[10:22] <keleus> "sudo rm -Rf /" - since its a liveCD and you dont have your drives mounted its safe, for the most part
[10:22] <clever> lol
[10:22] <keleus> DONT EXECUTE THAT LINE PEOPLE
[10:22] <clever> i should try that on my hdd less laptop
[10:22] <anarqi> lol
[10:23] <clever> no hdd at all in it so it cant do any harm
[10:23] <LeifErikson> hello.
[10:23] <iiiears> Welcome LeifErickson
[10:23] <chin> is there any easy way of unloading almost all modules?
[10:24] <keleus> was that really necessary considering the rest of the line?
[10:24] <LeifErikson> i have linux installed on my PowerPC Macintosh and the wireless card isnt working any ideas?
[10:25] <Healot> many ideas for that
[10:25] <Healot> 1) the card isn't support
[10:25] <Healot> 2) the card isn't configure yet
[10:25] <pache> hi
[10:25] <Healot> 3) the card driver doesn't support certain wireless features like WPA 128 etc...
[10:25] <drcode> hi all
[10:26] <LeifErikson> my network doesnt have any type of secuirty.
[10:26] <drcode> how can  I view chm in 6.06?
[10:26] <drcode> xchm dosnt appear
[10:26] <iiiears> LeifErickson - Ubotu has a link . Have you seen this?
[10:26] <iiiears> !wifi
[10:26] <ubotu> it has been said that wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[10:27] <LeifErikson> um its LeifErikson without a C
[10:27] <LeifErikson> no, i havent.
[10:27] <iiiears> Okay, I see no "C"
[10:28] <Healot> Erikson - Erik's son?
[10:28] <LeifErikson> what?
[10:28] <LeifErikson> no.
[10:29] <iiiears> Hi Seveas.
[10:29] <keleus> ubotu, no, wifi is a brand originally licensed by the Wi-Fi Alliance to describe the underlying technology of wireless local area networks (WLAN) based on the IEEE 802.11 specifications. For help setting it up in Ubuntu, look here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[10:29] <ubotu> okay, keleus
[10:29] <keleus> !wifi
[10:30] <keleus> now THATS a little more informative
[10:30] <iiiears> keleus - If i learn any more info i am going to need to forget something just to make room.
[10:30] <iiiears> j/k
[10:30] <keleus> by the time im done ubotu is going to be an encyclopedia
[10:31] <dsas> keleus: Without trolling, is all that info stuff that's really relevant to someone who's desperate to get their wifi card working?
[10:32] <iiiears> keleus - don't get too attached to him. He is an amnesiac.
[10:32] <frogzoo> by the by - ubotu strings that are overlong don't show in channel, which largely defeats the purpose
[10:32] <keleus> ubotu, no, wifi is a term to describe wireless networks (also known as 802.11a/b/g/n). For help getting it set up in Ubuntu, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[10:32] <ubotu> okay, keleus
[10:32] <keleus> better?
[10:32] <frogzoo> works for me
[10:32] <iiiears> I fe;t the same way. then cafuego put ubotu on a slim down program.
[10:32] <dsas> keleus: Yep, thanks.
[10:32] <MEX|sigge`> i tried that ubuntu Desktop CD for PC from here http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/ and it only opens that window with some programs available to install, and then i try to boot my PC, but ubuntus program wont start
[10:33] <MEX|sigge`> only same old windows
[10:35] <beatoangelico128> hi to all
[10:35] <Seveas> MEX|sigge`, set your bios to boot from cd
[10:35] <iiiears> MEX|sigge`: Grub makes the choice to boot to a disk/Operating system. - this link may help.     there is help in spanish here #ubuntu-es
[10:35] <iiiears> !grub
[10:35] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[10:35] <MEX|sigge`> yep, i've done that
[10:35] <MEX|sigge`> it boots from cd
[10:36] <beatoangelico128> please help me. I have a problem with the install XGL
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> hmm ok
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> but is there ubuntu.fi
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> :(
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> anywhere
[10:36] <iiiears> MEX|sigge`: You have installed Ubuntu and it doesn't boot from your hardrive?
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> well, it's that desktop ubuntu
[10:36] <MEX|sigge`> i'll check that link
[10:37] <MEX|sigge`> but it was that .iso file
[10:37] <iiiears> I am confused now. - (not very hard to do. )
[10:37] <LeifErikson> are any of you Mac users?
[10:38] <chin> how restart init in mode sinle?
[10:38] <Seveas> beatoangelico128, #ubuntu-xgl
[10:38] <Healot> I'm a big Mac and G4 user, LeifErikson
[10:38] <LeifErikson> nice.
[10:38] <beatoangelico128> Seveas, thankyuo very much! :D
[10:38] <frogzoo> chin - choose recovery from grub
[10:38] <MEX|sigge`> and i mounted it with daemon tools, and then the window came, and there was this text: Boot from this CD to try ubuntu without affecting your system.
[10:38] <Healot> but if you're asking for the wifi part... i can't answer that... as I have no wifi, yet
[10:39] <LeifErikson> me too, even tough i have been on the mac sence for about 5 months
[10:39] <keleus> arg does an nmap scan of a single host usually take half an hour? (Default port range)
[10:39] <LeifErikson> oh.
[10:39] <iiiears> LeifErikson: lspci should give you needed information about the installed WiFi card. - Maybe somone knows enough about that particular card?
[10:39] <Healot> I am off the office
[10:39] <LeifErikson> its a Aiport Extreme card
[10:39] <shadukan> hi guys
[10:39] <Seveas> LeifErikson, are you using breezy?
[10:39] <frogzoo> keleus: it depends on the mode
[10:39] <LeifErikson> huh?
[10:39] <shadukan> i have an apache problem with ubuntu
[10:40] <shadukan> in my pure debian the server works fine and i can view .php files
[10:40] <Seveas> LeifErikson, the airport extreme only works in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper)
[10:40] <zzveyz_> d
[10:40] <Seveas> e
[10:40] <shadukan> but in ubuntu eventhough i have php installed when i open a php from localhost it says cannot be displayed..
[10:40] <LeifErikson> i am not sure what i downloaded.
[10:41] <keleus> frogzoo, default port range, normal throttling, syn stealth scan
[10:41] <Ohzie> Is there any way I can completely remove the password requirement for SMB share access?
[10:41] <keleus> frogzoo, single target
[10:41] <Seveas> LeifErikson, are you in your Ubuntu system right now?
[10:41] <LeifErikson> no.
[10:41] <Ohzie> !smb
[10:41] <ubotu> Ohzie: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:41] <frogzoo> keleus: get rid of the stealth
[10:41] <LeifErikson> i am on mac os c
[10:41] <LeifErikson> x*
[10:41] <keleus> frogzoo, which one should i use for a general test?
[10:41] <Seveas> shadukan, did you install libapache2-mod-php5?
[10:41] <shadukan> yes
[10:41] <frogzoo> keleus: there's an option for 3 way handshake?
[10:41] <Seveas> and restarted apache?
[10:42] <shadukan> i can check again..
[10:42] <dopevade> hi i am trying to install ubuntu, but when the gnome starts...the installations seems to hang...it there any way to install out of a text mode?
[10:42] <shadukan> double check
[10:42] <keleus> frogzoo, theres a "connect scan"
[10:42] <Seveas> shadukan, did you perhaps install both apache and apache2? in that case remove apache
[10:42] <Netcad>  any experience with clustering qmail?
[10:42] <MEX|sigge`> how can i auth on freenode?
[10:42] <MEX|sigge`> because it's +r @ ubuntu-fi
[10:42] <LeifErikson> Seveas, i downloaded this http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/releases/6.06/
[10:43] <LeifErikson> the DESKTOP CD for Mac PowerPC
[10:43] <Seveas> MEX|sigge`, http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[10:43] <MEX|sigge`> i did it too
[10:43] <MEX|sigge`> hmm ok
[10:43] <MEX|sigge`> thx
[10:43] <derjur> anyone have any idea why no msn clients will connect in ubuntu?  is there a possible licensing issue same as mp3?
[10:43] <Seveas> LeifErikson, good, then you're on dapper
[10:43] <LeifErikson> does the airport works on that one?
[10:43] <Seveas> LeifErikson, then all you need is the bcm43xx firmware from ubuntu.cafuego.net
[10:43] <iiiears> MEX|sigge`: "'/msg nickserv IDENTIFY"   or msg nickserv help   in the first channel
[10:43] <anarqi> derjur, im using gaim and it connects to msn just fine
[10:44] <LeifErikson> ok, i download it and what?
[10:44] <derjur> strange... i've had this issue for 2 weeks now, tried a couple of clients, and i can connect fine in bsd
[10:44] <dopevade> anyone can help me?
[10:44] <derjur> it gets as far as handshaking, then hangs
[10:44] <dopevade> hi i am trying to install ubuntu, but when the gnome starts...the installations seems to hang...it there any way to install out of a text mode?
[10:45] <anarqi> dopevade whats your vid card?
[10:45] <anarqi> ati?
[10:45] <dopevade> it is a onboard
[10:45] <dopevade> i dont know what one
[10:45] <shadukan> http://localhost/phpmyadmin/  It is not possible to view this file directly in the browser. You can save it instead
[10:45] <derjur> isn't there a prompt to install text?
[10:45] <anarqi> ok type dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in console
[10:45] <sexy_girl> '
[10:45] <shadukan> Seveas this is the thing i get from galeon
[10:45] <derjur> shadukan: look up "addtype" in httpd.conf
[10:45] <dopevade> ok
[10:46] <michele> hello
[10:46] <iiiears> dopevade - "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" okay?
[10:46] <the_Kane> keleus: are you there?
[10:46] <dopevade> what does thois command ?
[10:46] <iiiears> "sudo" is the command to give you root powers
[10:46] <derjur> dopevade: is this /before/ the install?  or after you've installed and you're booting for the first time
[10:46] <shadukan> thanks derjur u where right...it is commented..
[10:46] <starkruzr> Anyone know of some good Rhythmbox plugins that will enhance the audio output the way iTunes does?  as it is now the audio sounds pretty flat.
[10:46] <shadukan> thanks guys and keep up the good work..
[10:46] <keleus> the_Kane, yep
[10:47] <frogzoo> zeelot: methinks if you're probing a firewall, or a host that's not returning RST - you can try -sA
[10:47] <michele> my PC shuts down with "Critical temperature reached" at approx 67C, when the critical temperature should be 90C
[10:47] <michele> what's up with that?
[10:47] <derjur> michele: in your bios maybe?
[10:47] <dopevade> derjur: before install
[10:47] <michele> this didn't happen with breezy, just with dapper
[10:47] <derjur> dopevade: should be a prompt that will ask you about the install
[10:47] <dopevade> i have to select stuff like install unbutu, graphical demo, memory check
[10:47] <derjur> *before
[10:47] <michele> derjur: I can only read values in the bios, not set them
[10:47] <the_Kane> keleus: i looked into the Browser Service, and i found some hotfix.. i've emailed microsoft to try and get a hold of it.. do you think this will solve that problem?
[10:48] <dopevade> i can get to promiot by pressing excape -> there will be "boot:"
[10:48] <keleus> possibly
[10:48] <shadukan> derjur i uncomment it and tried to restart apache but i get it now to hang
[10:48] <derjur> apache hangs now?
[10:48] <shadukan> yes
[10:48] <derjur> what's the output?
[10:48] <derjur> does it say something about bad syntax?
[10:48] <derjur> or can't find the php module?
[10:49] <DBO> brown.freenode.net just went down =P
[10:49] <shadukan>  Forcing reload of apache 2.0 web server...                                   apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[10:49] <shadukan> apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerNam
[10:49] <anarqi> you need to edit your conf
[10:49] <shadukan> i can see again in localhost my projects still cannont access my php files
[10:49] <frogzoo> keleus: try the -sA option if you're not seeing returned RSTs - causing timeouts on each probe
[10:49] <derjur> shadukan: add your hostnome to /etc/hosts
[10:49] <shadukan> i have it...

[10:50] <tau> hello, I have a question about why since upgrading to Dapper my monitor is now spontaneously going into power saving mode, sometimes as little as 5 seconds after moving my mouse.  I have totally disabled power saving mode, and any screensavers and yet it appears to have made no difference!  any ideas???
[10:50] <derjur> or rhat ;)
[10:50] <keleus> frogzoo, its now doing this: Strange read error from XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (104 - 'Connection reset by peer'): Operation now in progress
[10:50] <keleus> snipped his IP
[10:50] <keleus> frogzoo, adaptive firewall?
[10:50] <dannym> hi
[10:51] <shadukan> and i have in hostname file localhost...:(
[10:51] <dopevade> i do not have a shell while the installation so far..are u sure i can type "dpkg-reconfigure"...there something like "boot:" when i can type installation parameters
[10:51] <dannym> can someone do me a favour and check which module has libatk-bridge ?
[10:51] <dannym> package*
[10:51] <frogzoo> keleus: only way to know is run up ethereal & see what's what
[10:52] <derjur> oops
[10:52] <derjur> forgot i was using gaim to connect to irc when i uninstalled it
[10:52] <dopevade> derjur? ;)
[10:52] <dopevade> i do not have a shell while the installation so far..are u sure i can type "dpkg-reconfigure"...there something like "boot:" when i can type installation parameters
[10:52] <anarqi> thats the boot screen
[10:52] <anarqi> you have to get past that
[10:52] <derjur> dopevade: dpkg-re...  will be done /after/ you install
[10:53] <dopevade> i can not install..it hangs while installation
[10:53] <dopevade> when some graphic icons are loaded
[10:53] <anarqi> derjur, i had to do it /before/ i installed because i am using ati card
[10:53] <dopevade> first there is stuff: ...loaded ok ....loaded ok
[10:53] <dopevade> then there is ubunto logo..then hang
[10:53] <derjur> anarqi: oh really?  i think i just went text mode install because that's what i'm comfortable with
[10:53] <anarqi> it boots, tries to load gdm, then hangs for about 2 minutes then goes to console, and it let me fix it
[10:53] <garryfre> !ati

[10:54] <derjur> i know i had to remove either glx or dri from my xorg.conf before i could load x
[10:54] <dopevade> it was hanging for 20minutes
[10:54] <dopevade> or longer
[10:54] <anarqi> i symlinked my dri
[10:54] <iiiears> dopevade - Are there any error messages?
[10:54] <dopevade> no
[10:54] <dlcl0> paduraru
[10:54] <iiiears> More info capitain we need more information! - grin
[10:54] <snoops> how can I check what my network card is connected to my switch at?
[10:55] <snoops> like 100mbit, 1000mbit
[10:55] <tau> is it common practice for new people joining this channel to be ignored?
[10:55] <Ng> tau: it's an extremely busy channel, we do our best to help people, but please be patient
[10:55] <shadukan> again the same fu**ing error...oofff
[10:55] <dopevade> so i can not install without using this gdm?
[10:55] <tau> I'm just wondering whether I would fare better leaving an email to somewhere instead?
[10:55] <derjur> snoops: ifconfig
[10:56] <Ng> tau: there's ubuntuforums.org
[10:56] <Ng> dannym: at-spi
[10:56] <garryfre> Only if nobody knows the answer or is sure about the answer for the question. It is better to say nothing than say something incorrect.
[10:56] <iiiears> dopevade - Has it fully installed? Does it try to start. I\If it does do you see a grub boot error number? A blue screen with Information with info on a video card?
[10:56] <garryfre> The server iso has no gui.
[10:56] <tau> aha
[10:56] <dopevade> iiiears: no nothing is installed
[10:56] <keleus> well im off to bed
[10:56] <garryfre> Gnight keleus
[10:56] <sixslap> heres a question.....t rely on it for strong anonymity.

[10:57] <derjur> sixslap: your config is borked
[10:57] <Ng> !tell sixslap about paste
[10:57] <sixslap> sorry
[10:57] <snoops> doesn't mentioned what speed it's connected in ifconfig derjur, is there some tag I need to use as well?
[10:57] <Ng> sixslap: did you use sudo with invoke-rc.d?
[10:57] <sixslap> nope
[10:58] <derjur> oh hey, look at that
[10:58] <derjur> sorry, ifconfig in bsd tells me the media connectiong type
[10:58] <garryfre> np, we all had to learn about pastebin. after putting the text there, hit send and then the new url is a url to your pasted info for any to see.
[10:58] <tau> can anyone recommend a less buggy & more user-friendly distro instead of ubuntu?
[10:58] <Ng> sixslap: but you were calling it from a shell, right? if so you should use sudo because init scripts are system services, not user programs
[10:58] <starkruzr> guys
[10:58] <derjur> tau: openbsd
[10:58] <derjur> oh, user-friendly??  no
[10:58] <starkruzr> what do you use to play music that doesn't sound like crap?
[10:58] <anarqi> less buggy? lol
[10:58] <derjur> starkruzr: xmms
[10:58] <shadukan> xmms rulezzzzzzzzz
[10:58] <tau> are you saying they're all buggy?
[10:58] <starkruzr> derjur: seems pretty crappy to me still.  do you use plugins with it?
[10:58] <sixslap> ok then how come i could get it to run before but not now
[10:58] <dopevade> it does not hang i can move the mouse...but it seems the gdm is starting up very slowly or not at all
[10:58] <pache> ciao!
[10:59] <snoops> tau what's the problem?
[10:59] <derjur> starkruzr: just audioscrobbler
[10:59] <anarqi> this is by far the best distro i been on, but if you want another good distro check out slackware (not for noobs)
[10:59] <sixslap> do i need to try invoke
[10:59] <tau> snoops: let me just paste what I wrote above -- hello, I have a question about why since upgrading to Dapper my monitor is now spontaneously going into power saving mode, sometimes as little as 5 seconds after moving my mouse.  I have totally disabled power saving mode, and any screensavers and yet it appears to have made no difference!  any ideas???
[10:59] <shadukan> osd cause i have wmaker...
[10:59] <starkruzr> really what I want is something that sounds like iTunes.
[10:59] <garryfre> Yeah, Suze would be a second choice but they intro'd some bugs by changing the update package. One review says try fedora core five.
[10:59] <iiiears> dopevade - hm, It sounds like it is stalled before you reboot into Ubuntu. - Yes?
[10:59] <starkruzr> or WinAmp + DFX.
[10:59] <derjur> starkruzr: like an audio enhance?
[11:00] <tau> If I had known what a PITA dapper was going to be I would have stuck with Breezy
[11:00] <Ng> tau: try "xset s off" in a terminal
[11:00] <shasbot> i am used to gentoo linux, and i was curious as if to when i use apt-get/synaptic to get a package, is it compiled from source or is it in binary form?
[11:00] <derjur> there's a stereo enhancer that comes with xmms, which sounds alright if you keep it around 2.5
[11:00] <snoops> binary shasbot
[11:00] <starkruzr> derjur: yeah.
[11:00] <anarqi> shash it can be done bothways
[11:00] <shasbot> thanks snoops
[11:00] <derjur> other than that, the eq and mixer should be set properly and it'll sound good
[11:00] <anarqi> they have deb-src
[11:00] <tau> Ng: I ran it, I'm not sure if it worked or not though?
[11:00] <snoops> ther eare binary repositories.. yeah deb-src
[11:00] <shasbot> ah
[11:00] <Ng> tau: leave your mouse alone for a few seconds and find out :)
[11:00] <sixslap> ok then i guess if it's not gonna work it's not gonna work
[11:01] <knubbe> how do i see how much resources my kubuntu is using?
[11:01] <garryfre> Breezy installled must but the kitchen sink, Dappers's view is to install what gets the system running as in a minimalist mode and let the user choose what to install or not.
[11:01] <knubbe> (gui)
[11:01] <sixslap> ty you anyways
[11:01] <derjur> ok, i cannot figure this crap out... i'm sending packets to the msn servers, but i'm not getting replies
[11:01] <iiiears> knubbe:  "top" in a reminal
[11:01] <dopevade> iiiears: i boot from a ubutnuto cd...i see a screen where i can select: iinstall ubutu, test in graphical interface, perform memory check...... i select install...it loads kernel etc...it says shdjshdj loaded ok...then it shows me a graphical logo...trys to load some icons..but this takes verylong..
[11:01] <garryfre> So dapper ends up looking a bit sparce compared to breezy.
[11:01] <tau> Ng: well, the monitor doesn't just switch into power-saving mode all the time, rather, just whenever it feels like it, very unpredictable.  In case you were wondering, it never happened with Breezy, and doesn't happen with my other OS
[11:01] <derjur> no one has had any issues with gaim/msn connecting?
[11:02] <tau> Ng: but I'll wait & see if it made a difference, thanks
[11:02] <dopevade> do i have to change the gfx card?
[11:02] <knubbe> iiiears: do you know if theres an url where the stats there are explained?
[11:02] <Ng> tau: if it doesn't help, you might want to report a bug against the xserver-xorg package (bugs can be filed at launchpad.net)
[11:02] <anarqi> i had an issue with yahoo connecting but then i checked my proxy setup in gaim and had it turned on for some reason
[11:02] <Ng> knubbe: "man top" should explain them
[11:03] <knubbe> Ng: thanks
[11:03] <garryfre> !power management
[11:03] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, garryfre
[11:03] <derjur> i'm not using any proxies, in fact, i copied my .gaim files directly from my bsd machine
[11:03] <knubbe> its a bit annoying that my Xorg takes ~70-80% of the cpu all the time
[11:03] <anarqi> derjur that might be half your problem
[11:03] <Ng> knubbe: that sounds kinda wrong. what graphics card do you have?
[11:04] <frogzoo> knubbe: that's not typical - are you running gdesklets or somethin?
[11:04] <tau> Ng: I would need to have an account to report bugs wouldn't I?
[11:04] <nanotalk> hi... how to turn-off ipv6 permanently?
[11:04] <derjur> anarqi: how do you mean?
[11:04] <garryfre> !ipv6
[11:04] <Ng> tau: quite possibly, I think mostly so it can email you when comments/fixes are added
[11:04] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[11:04] <anarqi> well bsd isnt linux
[11:04] <tau> Ng: ok
[11:04] <knubbe> Ng: intel ... one of those built-in cards. its a laptop.
[11:04] <derjur> gaim won't care about it's config files
[11:04] <dopevade> hey guys..it seems i have to get a suse with 5 cds ;)
[11:05] <knubbe> frogzoo: not that i know.
[11:05] <derjur> i copied them over after realizing it wasn't working
[11:05] <derjur> hoping to get it to work... jabber and icq connect fine, just msn
[11:05] <Ng> knubbe: hmm, strange, but it sounds like it might be a bug
[11:05] <derjur> and with amsn as well
[11:05] <anarqi> nano goto /etc/init.d and find the conf
[11:05] <iiiears> dopevade - Ah, That may help. - I think it is the video card settings. you might be able to use ALT+F2 to get a terminal. from there login , type  ps -e    to see running processes.  then sudo killall gdm   or kill -9 <process ID#> then lspci  for info on your vid hardware then  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:05] <derjur> any other decent clients for msn?
[11:05] <anarqi> amsn
[11:06] <derjur> heh, tried it
[11:06] <derjur> no connecty
[11:06] <knubbe> Ng: i810 is the driver. but i think the card is called 950 something.
[11:06] <derjur> oh wait, it connect using "http method"
[11:06] <derjur> it didn't do that before
[11:06] <anarqi> can you check something for me
[11:06] <derjur> anarqi: who
[11:06] <anarqi> open your account in gaim
[11:06] <B1zz> there is that attym i think it is
[11:06] <anarqi> goto the advanced tab
[11:07] <anarqi> and down at the bottom, if it says auto detect, switch it to no proxy
[11:07] <derjur> already set
[11:07] <iiiears> dopevade - follow the prompts. or if you can do it by editing/copying /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:07] <tau> also, has anyone noticed markedly decreased performance using mplayer in Dapper?  I used to be able to play mpeg video at 4x speed with no problems, now it struggles at just normal speed! :(
[11:07] <starkruzr> h,
[11:07] <derjur> i tried my gateway's proxy too, no go
[11:07] <starkruzr> derjur: the stereo splitter helps a lot.
[11:08] <derjur> starkruzr: just don't push it too far or it will crunch like cellophane
[11:08] <derjur> (sp?)
[11:08] <starkruzr> yeah.
[11:08] <starkruzr> you got it right :)
[11:08] <derjur> the eq in xmms sounds better than winamp, imo
[11:08] <starkruzr> I have it hovering around 2.1.
[11:08] <iiiears> dopevade - How is it going?
[11:09] <gypsymauro> someone can give me a pointer to doc on how setup sequencer/midi on dapper?
[11:09] <iiiears> !midi
[11:09] <ubotu> from memory, midi is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=8736 or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[11:09] <Xgates> I uninstalled Totem and Totem-gstreamer, but that also removes ubuntu-desktop, is this ok, cause Synaptic says it is recommended that you keep
[11:09] <Xgates> it installed, because it is used to carry out certain upgrade
[11:10] <iiiears> gypsymauro - Is that the link you needed?
[11:10] <ninian> Does anyone know if I can find a packaged version of apache2.2 for Dapper  ?
[11:11] <Boglizk> Which BitTorrent client for Linux, is the best one?
[11:11] <derjur> ctorrent
[11:11] <anarqi> azureus is what i use bog
[11:11] <frogzoo> Boglizk: azureus, of course
[11:11] <frogzoo> !start a bt war
[11:11] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, frogzoo
[11:11] <gypsymauro> iiiears: yes tanx
[11:11] <derjur> i like ctorrent with screen, so i can download to my server and not bog down my workstation
[11:11] <ninian> apache2.2 / dapper anyone ?
[11:11] <hyphenated> Xgates: it's important during a dist-upgrade, for example. You _can_ remove it, since it's just a meta package (doesn't contain any apps, just a list of apps and versions it "depends" on)
[11:11] <iiiears> ninian - Are you fresh installing Apacheand adding MYSQL, PHP ETC later?
[11:12] <Boglizk> Azureus: "Lets make a client that sucks on all OS"
[11:12] <Boglizk> memoryeater x_x
[11:12] <anarqi> lol
[11:12] <derjur> torrents suck
[11:12] <Xgates> hyphenated: well I don't get why if you try to install it, it's going to install also totem and totem-gstreamer,
[11:12] <Boglizk> Not really
[11:12] <derjur> my roomate does torrents, soulseek and emule all at the same time, and i had to upgrade my firewall to handle all the connections he makes
[11:12] <anarqi> i dont think azureus is all that bad, although i havent had much experimenting with torrent clients but bitcomet and bittornado suck
[11:13] <Xgates> Usenet Rules!
[11:13] <ninian> iiiears: I have all that installed, but I need version 2.2. Will need mod_php too and mysql. It all runs already, but I need mod proxy balancer
[11:13] <derjur> and cnsidering he doesn't even watch his movies, and instaed will delete unwatched movies just to download new ones....
[11:13] <anarqi> for being java is incredibly fast
[11:13] <derjur> anarqi: yeah, that's rare
[11:13] <jgonzalez> hi
[11:13] <derjur> java blows
[11:13] <jgonzalez> are there packages for install anjuta 2 in dapper<  ?
[11:13] <hyphenated> Xgates: it's there to make life easier. Eg: if you did a server install, and wanted to add all the default desktop packages, you just install the 'ubuntu-desktop' meta-package
[11:13] <Xgates> how can you install ubuntu-desktop with out totem?
[11:14] <anarqi> xgates ubuntu-desktop is a group of packages
[11:14] <hyphenated> Xgates: you can't
[11:14] <anarqi> its not any one program
[11:14] <tau> has anyone considered separating #ubuntu into separate sections to help mediate the traffic, and to make the cumulative knowledge of the people in the channel more relevant to the particular topic?
[11:14] <Xgates> well I can appreciate that, but having Totem in it, sucks....
[11:14] <derjur> **afk: grabbing beer
[11:14] <iiiears> ninian - Okay, - nvm was just going to install a preconfigured LAMP package to save the file editing.
[11:14] <hyphenated> Xgates: I agree on that point ;-)
[11:15] <ninian> iiiears: thanks... I'll have to build it I guess.
[11:16] <Xgates> but if it's a group of packages, then where are all the packages and why is it only Totem is removed and added in?
[11:16] <Hobbsee> tau: er...probably wouldnt be that useful...
[11:16] <tau> not useful?
[11:16] <iiiears> ninian - Probably best. You will know about everything inside.
[11:17] <Hobbsee> tau: because it would mean that people who know about a lot of things would have to be across many channels, and so would have trouble reading them
[11:17] <ninian> iiiears: yeah, but I'm not super competent, it frightens me a bit...
[11:17] <tau> I guess
[11:18] <Xgates> oh well guess back to putting back in that LAME Totem, you Ubuntu DEV HEARING that?
[11:18] <Xgates> LOL
[11:18] <tau> I think the point is that any person that knows lots of things isn't going to be able to answer everyone's questions anyway, due to there being so many people
[11:18] <anarqi> thats true tau
[11:18] <tau> so it would be more productive for them to spend time in an area they consider more important than the others - say for example, installation problems
[11:19] <pd273> I like VLC for a player
[11:19] <tau> or where they have more expertise
[11:19] <graymer20> i preffer mplayer
[11:20] <snoops> tau, it's all free support, not a corporate enterprise dictatorship :)
[11:20] <iiiears> ninian - If your business isn't dependent on your server choose a preconfigured package. security is less of a concern. much easier. The preconfigured package will likely include a content management interface. painless. (nearly)
[11:20] <pd273> Open Source Support model
[11:20] <tau> well, there are advantages and disadvantages to both
[11:20] <ninian> iiiears: I can't find one for 2.2 - and I need 2.2 for rails + mongrel deployment.
[11:20] <tau> at least with as you say a "corporate enterprise dictatorship" I can call a helpline and get an answer, whereas here I have to hope and pray that someone 1) is willing to listen to me and 2) knows or at least has some idea how to fix the problem
[11:21] <Hobbsee> Xgates: no, a lot of the devs arent here, and they dont read the forums either.  malone is for bugs and wishlists.
[11:21] <Hobbsee> tau: you can bring it up with the irc op list if you like
[11:21] <pd273> Telephonic support comes with a huge price tag if needed for servers
[11:21] <tau> Hobbsee: irc op list?
[11:21] <Xgates> Hobbsee: yeah j/k not to many DEVS around anywhere, unless a small distro, but Gentoo has a few that hang there
[11:21] <chrisjw> hi there, how do you create folder shortcuts?
[11:22] <digitx> re
[11:22] <digitx> :D
[11:22] <digitx> hello
[11:22] <Hobbsee> Xgates: oh, there are a couple aroudn here, and a fair few on IRC - but they're mostly coding, and bugfixing - not reading the user channel, per se...
[11:22] <snoops> tau, heh all about different philosophies..no guarantees a helpline will give you sound advice.. to quote the IT Crowd "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
[11:22] <digitx> I'M Hungary language speka :D
[11:22] <digitx> speak:D
[11:23] <Hobbsee> tau: that's kinda what happens with the ubuntu forums
[11:23] <rob> PEBKAC!
[11:23] <Hobbsee> tau: see lists.ubuntu.com and then the ubuntu-irc
[11:23] <digitx> 
[11:23] <chrisjw> how do I create a shortcut to a folder please?
[11:23] <tau> ok
[11:23] <digitx> help :D install compiler:D

[11:28] <knubbe> frogzoo: there was a solution there at the bottom though
[11:28] <rage> frogzoo: I'm hoping to keep them in the fstab
[11:28] <Dybber> Well I will try just letting the wizard install it, and hope nothing goes wrong.
[11:28] <rage> I just want gnome not to take notice of them
[11:28] <ubuntus> i was setup default ubuntu
[11:29] <ubuntus> it created user
[11:29] <ubuntus> but i cant longin root
[11:29] <rpedro> ubuntus: look at link ubotu sent you in a private msg
[11:29] <Tommy2k4> J #kubuntu
[11:29] <frogzoo> knubbe: echo 1 > /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate  fixes it? how do people figure this stuff out...
[11:29] <Ng> ubuntus: you should have a msg from ubotu with a URL that explains about the root account (because it's disabled by default in ubuntu)
[11:29] <ubuntus> ng
[11:30] <tt> hello everyone. my gmd's resolution 1280*1024 but in gnome it's 1024*768. i want to chang the gdm's into 1024-768.but i do not how to do.
[11:30] <frogzoo> rage: cake - you can have it, or eat it, not both
[11:30] <ubuntus> what is the default password for ubuntu
[11:30] <Boglizk> How do i delete a directory?
[11:30] <Tommy2k4> does there need to be a blank line at the end of fstab?
[11:31] <dopevade> iiiears: thanks... can i login before i have installed anything? what for account?
[11:31] <anarqi> rmdir /folder
[11:31] <rage> frogzoo: na, its cool, I'm pretty sure I can do both now,
[11:31] <rpedro> ubuntus: I will tell you again to look a t the CommonQuestions link on the channel topic
[11:31] <Ng> ubuntus: did you get a URL from ubotu?
[11:31] <frogzoo> Tommy2k4: man 5 fstab
[11:31] <ubuntus> yes
[11:31] <ubuntus> but
[11:31] <ubuntus> i cant find
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> huh?
[11:31] <Boglizk> anarqi, and if its not empty?
[11:31] <Ng> ubuntus: did you read it? ;)
[11:31] <Xgates> how can I get hdd icons off the desktop?
[11:31] <anarqi> then rm /folder/*
[11:31] <Ng> ubuntus: by default ubuntu disables the root account, there is no default password to find. you can re-enable the account if you want to, but it is not recommended
[11:32] <iiiears> knubbe - GOOD LINK - THANKS.
[11:32] <ubuntus> how is enable root account
[11:32] <rage> I'm curious about the whole avoiding the root user thing, is there a link to a document with the justification of why ubuntu works that way?
[11:32] <zxc> How can I check I have 3d acceleration available?
[11:32] <dopevade> iiiears..one last little question...how to login...what for account..i have nothing installed so far
[11:32] <rpedro> ubuntus: you don't need to , use sudo instead
[11:32] <osfameron> ubuntus: sudo su
[11:33] <osfameron> if you really don't want to type sudo for a bit
[11:33] <Ng> ubuntus: "sudo passwd root" will ask you to set a root password
[11:33] <iiiears> dopevade - Do you mean what is your password to login? the user pass is root password  check out the link for root sudo
[11:33] <iiiears> !rootsudo
[11:33] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[11:33] <ubuntus> thank you
[11:33] <Extigy> Anyone who want to spend 2 mins on me? I need to know how to extract a file into the root dir
[11:33] <rage> iiiears: ta
[11:33] <iiiears> Is this what you were looking for?
[11:34] <anarqi> rage to put it simple, you need sudo to do pretty much anything and without a root account its alot harder to login to "root" remotely
[11:34] <frogzoo> Extigy: no you don't
[11:34] <Tommy2k4> what you mean by man 5 fstab?
[11:34] <rpedro> zxc: what card you have?
[11:34] <ninian> Ng: The default install is in /usr/local/apache2 but in my Dapper install it is in /usr/lib/apache2 should I use --prefix to put it there too ?
[11:34] <zxc> repedro: ATI something...I'm not sure- how can I check?
[11:35] <Ng> ninian: that's up to you really - if you let it go into /usr/local/ it'll still work and is slightly more separated, but you can specify --prefix=/usr if you just want it to sit pretty much where ubuntu's packages would
[11:35] <rage> anarqi: ah okay, I disallow root logins in ssh anyway, but I suppose its less dirty
[11:35] <anarqi> zcx: type lspci -x
[11:35] <zxc> Extigy: Do you just mean extracting...like a tar or something?
[11:35] <mindspit> Bogofilter Vs Spammassasin : witch one to use ????
[11:35] <rpedro> zxc: did you follow the howto here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[11:35] <knubbe> frogzoo: i have no idea :-)
[11:35] <Extigy> yup.. TGZ
[11:35] <rpedro> zxc: if not you need to do that first
[11:35] <knubbe> iiiears: hope it helps.
[11:36] <graymer20> there is something strange with the power saving stuff on my laptop... when i unplug the power cable the screen brightens visibly, when i plug it back in it darkens .... shouldn't it be the other way around? i also checked system>pref.> power management (nothing there)
[11:36] <frogzoo> zxc: if Extigy doesn't know how to use tar - then best they don't go poking around in / (imo)
[11:36] <zxc> rpedro: I used Easy Ubuntu...and I have a ATI 9800 Pro
[11:37] <ninian> Ng: thanks. Are there many other things I must specify, or do you think the defaults will run fine ? (not a production server, mostly dev and beta testing)
[11:37] <zxc> Extigy: What do you need it for?
[11:37] <rpedro> zxc: then run ' fglrxinfo' . it should tell if X is using direct rendering
[11:37] <rage> I suppose the whole root user been disabled thing is to avoid the people who log into xsessions and do all their work as the root user
[11:37] <rpedro> zxc: and if 3d acceleration is on
[11:37] <Ng> ninian: it might be an idea to grab the ubuntu package and see what configure options it uses (in debian/rules inside the source package)
[11:37] <Anchoito21> hi
[11:38] <Demosthenes> hello?
[11:38] <Ng> ninian: mostly the options will relate to enabling/disabling the various modules. also you might want to do "apt-get build-dep apache2" so you get all the header libraries you need
[11:38] <zxc> rpedro: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[11:38] <anarqi> ati install for ubuntu:      sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) | sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx | sudo aticonfig --initial | sudo ln -s /usr/lib/dri /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[11:38] <ninian> Ng: I'd love to do that, but I have no clue how. Can you point to a man page, howto or anything ?
[11:38] <frogzoo> rage: it also helps keep out passwd attacks against "root"
[11:38] <mejobloggs> hey, can you play wmv and wma on linux?
[11:38] <Ng> ninian: "apt-get source apache2" mostly :)
[11:38] <Anchoito21> anyone can help me?
[11:39] <rpedro> !tell zxc about ati
[11:39] <Ng> !tell Anchoito21 about ask
[11:39] <ninian> Ng: thanks for your help !
[11:39] <rage> Yup, not that was a big problem for me anyway, all my remote logins are disabled and only a specific usergroup can su -
[11:39] <rage> but most people dont do that
[11:39] <zxc> rpedro: will that be fine to use after Easy Ubuntu (I thought installing ATI drivers is what Easy Ubuntu did :/)
[11:39] <Anchoito21> how i can mount a usb?
[11:39] <Anchoito21> my english is bad sorry
[11:40] <rpedro> zxc: follow the steps on that link, maybe you have to change something in xorg.conf , don't know if easyubuntu does that automaticaly
[11:40] <Ng> Anchoito21: they should generally mount automatically when you plug them in
[11:40] <harry> from everybody's experience which is better, limewire or frostwire???
[11:40] <frogzoo> Anchoito21: plug it in is usually enough
[11:40] <anarqi> zxc it wont hurt anything easy did
[11:40] <[zero] > what can I play .avi files in?
[11:40] <rage> [zero] : totem
[11:40] <zxc> Thanks rpedro and anarqi
[11:40] <Anchoito21> it doestn't work
[11:40] <[zero] > thankx rage
[11:40] <frogzoo> harry: it's not a technical issue - it's a FOSS issue & frostwire is better 4 that reason
[11:40] <mejobloggs> can you play wmv and wma on linux?
[11:40] <rpedro> zxc: maybe it does, I just don't know :P
[11:40] <rage> mind you, you may not have the codecs to decode it, if you dont, come back in here and I'll give you a link that may help
[11:41] <ftwig> nayone got bogofilter working in Dapper?
[11:41] <anarqi> mejob, yes but not legally
[11:41] <Ng> mejobloggs: not 100%, but a lot of them, yes
[11:41] <Ng> !tell mejobloggs about restrictedformats
[11:41] <mejobloggs> Ng: ok, thanks
[11:41] <Ng> anarqi: quite often it is legally, especially outside of the US
[11:41] <anarqi> well apart from the US i suppose
[11:42] <Demosthenes> The base system install would be the same for the ubuntu cd and the kubuntu cd, right??
[11:42] <Ng> Demosthenes: correct
[11:42] <harry> frogzoo: coz i had a debate with my friend, a windows user, sayin linux is not that gud. his using limewire and i'm using frostwire.. i offered him frost wire but he turned it down.
[11:42] <Demosthenes> I'm trying for Ubuntu lite
[11:43] <chrisjw> Is there anyway to pop up an input box as part of a param?
[11:43] <frogzoo> harry: 4 the moment, they're exactly the same - only limewire has said it will be introducing DRM controls in the future
[11:43] <iiiears> Demosthenes: xubuntu instead? (uses XFCE desktop)
[11:43] <Ng> Demosthenes: you might want to look at xubuntu then :)
[11:43] <blaaat> is there some kind of "FXP" sftp application, or is it even possible?
[11:43] <Demosthenes> which uses less memory?
[11:43] <rage> chrisjw: What do you mean?
[11:44] <xice> is there a fix for that shift backspace bug in xgl yet?
[11:44] <kenneho> Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade from Breezy to Dapper Drake, but are getting this error: "Not enough free disk space". I figure I should try and resize / to increase partition size. Anyone know how to safely accomplish this?
[11:44] <Demosthenes> I have 128 mb of ram and 364 mhz in my proccesser
[11:44] <iiiears> demosthenes - yes, though i don't know the numbers. oops
[11:44] <kenneho> Or is there some other smart way of getting rid of old data?
[11:44] <harry> frogzoo: well he got pissed off because i said, why wud you use something that u wud hav to pay for to use the full potential well infact u can enjoy the full potential of frostwire
[11:45] <Ng> Demosthenes: xubuntu should use a bunch less than the regular gnome/kde desktops
[11:45] <frogzoo> kenneho: is /var a separate partition (which is where apt stores stuff)? The other thing 2 try would be to disable the multiverse/universe repos b4 doing the ugprade
[11:45] <Demosthenes> wouldn't ubuntu lite use less as well?
[11:45] <Demosthenes> It would have icewm, my favorite destop
[11:45] <iiiears> Demosthenes: I tried enlightenment desktop. - it works too. a huge headache to add apps and configure.
[11:45] <Demosthenes> really
[11:45] <Demosthenes> I'm a noob, would xubuntu be easier?
[11:46] <Ng> Demosthenes: ubuntu lite seems to be a third party project, I've never even heard of it until you mentioned it ;)
[11:46] <harry> frogzoo: now a days every time you load limewire, limewire always says "would like to get the pro version" just to better off searches
[11:46] <Demosthenes> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=98233&page=5&highlight=%22Ubuntu+lite%22 in the forums
[11:46] <Demosthenes> Can I get icewm on xubuntu?
[11:46] <Ng> Demosthenes: yep
[11:47] <kenneho> frogzoo: I have home and / separated, but that's all. Why whould disabling there repos help?
[11:47] <rage> chrisjw: If you mean pop up a graphical input box where you can enter a parameter for a program then ls -`zenity --entry` will prompt with a graphical entry box, you can enter 'la' in that box and it will pass the commands to ls and list in all items in the director in a colum format, I wouldnt use it for anything other than personal use though without a little better input parsing
[11:47] <Demosthenes> k, I'll xubuntu then, thanks!
[11:47] <Xgates> Ok I got it ----> Configuration Editor ---->  -> apps -> nautilus -> desktop
[11:47] <Xgates> ;p
[11:47] <frogzoo> kenneho: cos you'd only be upgrading the core install - you can then upgrade the multiverse/universe at a later date
[11:48] <Demosthenes> which cd should I use, desktop or alternative?
[11:48] <a_l_e> is there any way to find some help on advanced configurations for yaboot (the lilo for the mac) on ubuntu?
[11:48] <Demosthenes> for xubuntu?
[11:48] <Mitja> Disregarding that ISP could filter/block port 80, are there any special restrictions for opening it?
[11:48] <iiiears> !yaboot
[11:48] <ubotu> yaboot is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[11:49] <kenneho> frogzoo: Ah, good point. :)
[11:49] <chrisjw> thx rage
[11:49] <Demosthenes> I think I should use the alternative cd for xubuntu.
[11:50] <rage> Np chrisjw :-)
[11:50] <Dybber> ok, now i got ubuntu 32bit installed, but it didnt connect to the network :(  (im in Windows now..)

[11:51] <Demosthenes> Does xubuntu come with ROX???
[11:51] <ChDlbY> hy
[11:52] <andi5> hi... can somebody tell me whether gnumexp is in ubuntu or not? i find some launchpad entries about it, but not the package :(

[11:52] <zxc> Sorry, what's the command to check if you have 3d enabled...fglrx-info or something?
[11:52] <ChDlbY> I'm so sorry bu_t I don't know ubuntu
[11:52] <ChDlbY> i would like a distribution to AMD64
[11:52] <Demosthenes> Does xubuntu come with ROX?
[11:52] <ChDlbY> what is the most
[11:52] <ChDlbY> ?.
[11:52] <dsas> Demosthenes: It uses thunar
[11:53] <a_l_e> iiiears: i think i nead a place where i can fid a guru :-) ... no, i don't nead the infos from lpci. i need the address used by yaboot which is stored in a file in the /etc hierarchy. the problem is, that i can't find the file :-(
[11:53] <dsas> ChDlbY: http://mirror.cs.umn.edu/ubuntu-releases/6.06/ubuntu-6.06-desktop-amd64.iso is the amd64 cd
[11:53] <ChDlbY> thanks
[11:53] <detectiveinspekt> I installed googleearth using sudo, but I can't run googleearth using a normal user

[11:55] <leethal> anyone knows why my gedit moves the marker instead of saving when pressing ctrl + s ?
[11:55] <leethal> and is there any way of making gedit act more emacs-like?
[11:56] <a_l_e> iiiears: oh, i guess that if you don't have a mac both the knowledge and the ignorance should be useless :-) and i'm trying to go a hardcore way: installing ubuntu on a usb external disk on a mac.
[11:56] <Guard] [an> hello i'm trying to have synaptics reinstall the vim package because /etc/vim has been messed up. how ever, when i ask for reinstallation it does not install /etc/vim/vimrc file

[11:57] <zxc> aptitude kubuntu-desktop doesn't work to get KDE...what's the command now?
[11:57] <iiiears> a_l_e - That sounds like the perfect way to do it. It's portable too. - External disks are a lifesaver. i use them to store system disk images for restores.
[11:57] <frogzoo> kenneho: lol - can't win - suppose you'll have to find some disk somewhere
[11:58] <kenneho> frogzoo: :)
[11:58] <neutrinomass> zxc: Why doesn't it work? Pastebin the output please ...

[11:58] <kenneho> frogzoo: Is this a safe option?

[12:02] <Owen> IB-, sorry, thats the extent of my troubleshooting knowledge :-P
[12:02] <Equin> how would I check which type networking card I have in my PC?
[12:02] <Xgates> IB-: ok thx
[12:02] <IB-> can anybody here help me configurating the default sound card in ubuntu ?
[12:02] <rage> IB-: yup
[12:02] <Ng> iiiears: it was done for reasons of simplicity and usability - the vast majority of people simple don't care or need to care about how many wasps are in the swarm screensaver at any one time ;)
[12:02] <Guard] [an> hello i'm trying to have synaptics reinstall the vim package because /etc/vim has been messed up. how ever, when i ask for reinstallation it does not install /etc/vim/vimrc file
[12:02] <Guard] [an> how could i force that please ?
[12:02] <IB-> rage: i change it in prefs-> soudn, but it always comes back
[12:02] <rage> Ah, thats what I was about to say you should do
[12:03] <IB-> :(
[12:03] <IB-> any1 elsE?
[12:03] <IB-> just installed XGL btw, it's easy, but useless :)
[12:03] <Equin> How would I check which type networking adapter I have in my PC?
[12:03] <neutrinomass> Seveas: Could by any chance ubotu be changed to autoban those idiots ?
[12:04] <chamo> Guard] [an: remove the config file. Uninstall. Reinstall. Try --force
[12:04] <Xgates> IB-: is there a way to get Flash through the Synaptic GUI and not CLI with apt-get?
[12:04] <IB-> equin: dmesg | grep eth
[12:04] <Guard] [an> chamo: i removed the file. uninstall engenders ubuntu-base removal, is it safe ???
[12:04] <iiiears> squidgy - got to wonder if we couldn't swap the xscreensaver from an earlier ubuntu release. - ng - Yes, okay. It's a feature not a bug. - I still miss the option to display RSS feeds on screen.
[12:04] <IB-> xgates: yes, it's the same, only instead of typing the package in apt-get, you type it in synaptic..
[12:04] <zxc> how can I edit my Gnome sessions startup programmes?
[12:04] <chamo> Guard] [an: why are you willing to remove these?
[12:05] <IB-> zxc: system -> preferences -> session -> startup programs
[12:05] <Guard] [an> chamo: if i select vim uninstallation, synaptics wants to remove ubuntu base
[12:05] <IB-> Guard] [an, i think (not sure) it's safe..
[12:05] <Guard] [an> and if I just select "reinstallation"
[12:05] <Guard] [an> it does not put new vimrc file in /etc/vim
[12:05] <chamo> try removing the config file you want to be replaced
[12:05] <Xgates> IB-: type in Synaptic how?
[12:05] <chamo> mmmh
[12:05] <dsas> zxc: system->preferences->session
[12:05] <Guard] [an> my /etc/vim is empty and remains empty after reinstallation

[12:06] <squidgy> iiiears:  Yeah, the removal of screensaver configuration seems philosophically like the one-button mouse on Macs.  I use linux precisely because it adopts a 3-mouse-button kinda philosophy.  I'll look into switching out gnome-screensaver with the older xscreensaver from breezy.
[12:06] <Xgates> IB-: thats what I thought, well 'flashplugin-nonfree' in search shows nothing
[12:07] <IB-> xgates: thats cause you didnt update your resporotires (or how it's typed)
[12:07] <IB-> you need the multiverse ones enabled
[12:07] <bluszcz> repositories
[12:07] <Equin> how would I check which networking adapter I have?

[12:10] <Guard] [an> chamo & IB-: i don't have /etc/vim directory anymore. reinstalling does not recreate it :/
[12:10] <zth> I have 2 soundcards, one build in Nforce and one SB Live! 5.1
[12:11] <zth> i wanna use line in from the built in one
[12:11] <IB-> i have no idea with VIM
[12:11] <zth> and rest from the sblive
[12:11] <IB-> zth: i dont think you ca
[12:11] <Xgates> IB-: well I have all the resporotires ones checked except the security at the bottom and I updated it, then put in the search "flashplugin-nonfree" and nothing shows up   :(
[12:11] <IB-> but you can tell each program which one to use
[12:11] <zth> im trying to set it up but with the buildin card activated i get no sound
[12:11] <IB-> xgates: there is a bug in the explenation on how to add the resps
[12:11] <IB-> i forgot how to fix it :|

[12:17] <Seveas> Guard] [an, not
[12:17] <zth> anyone...? restart alsa? =)
[12:17] <Guard] [an> not ?
[12:17] <Seveas> Guard] [an, you should purge and reinstall the package
[12:17] <Guard] [an> i'm afraid of doing it :(
[12:17] <Guard] [an> it's vim
[12:17] <ompaul> !reinstall
[12:17] <ubotu> I guess reinstall is renew configuration: sudo dpkg -P --force-depends $package <<followed by >> sudo apt-get install $package

[12:31] <harry> Seveas: i'm going to cancel it because i have to go for awhile. but i'm still planning to continue it afterwards....
[12:31] <harry> Seveas: i just dont want to leave the computer ON
[12:31] <extigy> any1 who know a little bit about winex?
[12:31] <mneptok> harry: is it downloading, or applying the new packages?
[12:32] <Seveas> harry, as long as it's only downloading it's safe to cancel. If it's already installing, you should *NOT* cancel it
[12:32] <extigy> does anyone know anything about wine?
[12:32] <harry> mneptok: well its saying downloading and installing packages....
[12:32] <IB-> yeah, it's not an emulator

[12:35] <harry> Seveas: its says downloading and installing
[12:35] <IB-> extigy, let me guess, if you try to run any X program (like gedit) as root, while logged in as normal user, it gives the same error, no ?
[12:35] <extigy> gtk-warning cannot show display
[12:35] <IB-> yeah.. you need to run it as your normal user
[12:35] <Seveas> harry, then you'd better not shut it down
[12:35] <extigy> yeah.. something like that
[12:36] <IB-> extigy, use "sudo wine <app name>"
[12:36] <harry> Seveas: maybe they should develop something like what if it suddenly cancelled or everything went black out then the system could recover
[12:36] <extigy> IB-, same
[12:37] <IB-> extigy, dont run it as root ...
[12:37] <mneptok> harry: that's already been developed. it's called an uninterruptible power supply.
[12:37] <Seveas> harry, it takes a few commands to recover but you really should avoid having to do that
[12:37] <extigy> IB-, I don't run it as root
[12:37] <harry> Seveas: i give up you win.. i'll just wait for a little while
[12:37] <IB-> extigy, show the output on pastebin

[12:48] <IB-> mneptok, k..
[12:48] <Xgates> bimberi: ok, I swear since Ubuntu uses like Debian ncurses apps, or at least it had more in the past, there was one for the services too
[12:48] <Brunno> IB- thanks ! :)
[12:49] <jacopoexchange> does anyone know why the spellchecker is not working?
[12:49] <bimberi> Xgates: just cause i don't know doesn't mean it doesn't exist :)
[12:49] <mneptok> IB-: you could just call dhclient from /etc/rc.local   *shrug*
[12:50] <Xgates> bimberi: not sure if they removed it
[12:50] <IB-> mneptok, it's a hack.. i perfer to find the problem ..
[12:50] <Xgates> IB-: do you know about a ncurses app to enable disable services, I thought Ubuntu use to have one....
[12:51] <IB-> xgates: you asking every 2 seconds the question, then directing it at me, wont help
[12:51] <IB-> if i've known (or somebody else), i guess you would have known as well by now
[12:51] <iiiears> jacopoexchange: X-Spell - (shrug) XChat internal spell checking seems broken. couldn't find a hoeto for fixing it.

[12:54] <IB-> MetaMorfoziS, google for mpeg demuxing
[12:54] <mneptok> MetaMorfoziS: install gstreamer10-plugins-ugly
[12:54] <IB-> mneptok, hmm, wont that cause problems with my windows configuration ?
[12:55] <mneptok> IB-: i don't know anything about Windows, and i don;t *care* to know anything about Windows ;)
[12:55] <mormoloc> im looking for an offline browser for ubuntu ... any idea?
[12:55] <IB-> and yet .. :) i cant afford to hav issues like that
[12:55] <dsas> mormoloc: Offline browser?
[12:55] <mormoloc> yep
[12:55] <mneptok> IB-: so use rc.local until the bug is fixed.
[12:55] <dsas> mormoloc: What do you mean.
[12:56] <IB-> mneptok, tnx
[12:56] <IB-> will do:)
[12:56] <MetaMorfoziS> mneptok: and how can i use that?
[12:56] <IB-> it strange it happened after XGL update
[12:56] <IB-> just add "dhclient" there, yes ?
[12:56] <mormoloc> dsas: well you download a site to you're hard drive
[12:56] <mneptok> IB-: /sbin/dhclient -nw eth0
[12:57] <mneptok> IB-: (or whatever interface)
[12:57] <IB-> mneptok, if i run "dhclient" in normal terminal , and it works
[12:57] <IB-> it should be sufficient there as well, no ?
[12:57] <IB-> cool, now i got sound configuried ok
[12:57] <mneptok> IB-: you'll want to use a fully qualified path
[12:57] <IB-> k, i'll reboot and check it soon
[12:57] <mneptok> (and that line goes *above* the "exit 0" bit) ;)
[12:58] <IB-> ofcourse :)
[12:58] <MetaMorfoziS> so how can i use gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly to get an mpg's sound to an mp3?
[12:58] <mormoloc> offline browser for ubuntu? anybody
[12:58] <dsas> mormoloc: Oh, there's no graphical one that I know of, but you can use wget from the command line.
[12:58] <mneptok> mormoloc: wget
[12:58] <MetaMorfoziS> mormoloc: all browser can browse in offline mode, but only local files
[12:59] <kbh> can i use dowemu in ubuntu
[12:59] <jacopoexchange> is there an openoffice.org chat?
[12:59] <phlexonance> does anyone know a site where I can find a driver for my printer (Canon SmartBase MP360) ?
[12:59] <opti> quick query, i can just download the 'desktop' cd and it does the livecd stuff?
[12:59] <mormoloc> mneptok: thnks
[12:59] <ic56> mormoloc: use wget to download the files, then a regular browser to view them on your local drive
[12:59] <opti> or do i need to get gnoppix
[12:59] <dsas> opti: yes
[12:59] <opti> sweet

[01:02] <opti> whats this alternate version then?
[01:02] <Xgates> bimberi: I got it ---->  Rcconf

[01:05] <Xgates> hmm
[01:05] <IB-> i've got mozilla-acroread, am i missing something ?
[01:05] <Euthymos> I've a question nobody can answer
[01:05] <eXistenZ> IB-, using ubuntu?
[01:06] <IB-> eXistenZ, yes ? :)
[01:06] <mneptok> why am i reading support tickets at 4am?
[01:06] <IB-> mneptok, very good question
[01:06] <eXistenZ> IB-, There is a bug in the mozilla-acroread
[01:06] <kimo> mneptok: in oregon ?
[01:06] <IB-> i need to make a soft link or something ?
[01:06] <eXistenZ> IB-, You should download the acrobat*.tz from the acrobat reader website, and copy a file called npdf.so or something
[01:06] <Ng> Euthymos: ask it and see :)
[01:06] <eXistenZ> IB-, just replace it
[01:06] <mneptok> kimo: yeah. i'll be in Montreal at the Canonical support offices as of July 4.
[01:06] <IB-> k, tnx, i'll try
[01:07] <IB-> btw, google picasa for linux rocks a swell
[01:07] <Euthymos> Ng: How can i raise the limit of symbolic links levels?
[01:07] <eXistenZ> IB-, I don't use ubuntu anymore
[01:07] <IB-> why not ?
[01:07] <IB-> Euthymos, maybe with ulimit?
[01:07] <eXistenZ> IB-, I just set up ubuntu on my server
[01:07] <kimo> mneptok: heh cool ;) Can I apply for a job (live in Cairo)
[01:07] <Euthymos> IB-: thank you for your answer. What is ulimit?
[01:07] <mneptok> kimo: sure, apply. but be ready to relocate to Montreal.
[01:07] <IB-> i use gentoo on my sever
[01:07] <eXistenZ> IB-, For desktop usage, I prefer windows. ubuntu is way behind windows.
[01:07] <mneptok> :P
[01:07] <IB-> eXistenZ, hehehe, i use bot
[01:07] <IB-> both
[01:07] <kimo> mneptok: no problem! URL ?
[01:08] <IB-> i mostly use windows and linux runs in vmware (for development porpouses)
[01:08] <IB-> Euthymos, man it
[01:08] <mneptok> kimo: http://www.ubuntu.com/employment
[01:08] <kimo> mneptok: thanks
[01:08] <eXistenZ> IB-, I guess it is called nppdf.so
[01:08] <opti> whats the 'codename' for 6.06 then?
[01:08] <kimo> opti: dapper drake?
[01:08] <eXistenZ> IB-, It is in the BROWSER directory in the acrobat reader source you download from the website
[01:08] <opti> cheers
[01:08] <eXistenZ> IB-, locate nppdf.so
[01:09] <Euthymos> http://www.ss64.com/bash/ulimit.html
[01:09] <Ng> Euthymos: I believe it's controlled by the kernel, so you'd need to patch that
[01:09] <mneptok> kimo: be warned, if you get hired as a junior tech, i'll be your boss. and i'm a hard-ass. :)
[01:09] <IB-> eXistenZ, yeah, i figured it out, i'll try, tnx
[01:09] <Euthymos> Ng: fantastic
[01:09] <the_Kane> hey
[01:09] <Euthymos> ulimit is unable to
[01:09] <IB-> eXistenZ, did you try ubuntu 6.06 ? it's much more closer to window s:)
[01:09] <kimo> mneptok: ;) no problem with that
[01:09] <Ng> Euthymos: it might be too old to apply, but http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/9804.1/0182.html may help
[01:09] <eXistenZ> IB-, Yes. It has bad packages support as well.
[01:09] <IB-> bad packages ? like what?
[01:10] <Euthymos> Well, that's unbelievable
[01:10] <mneptok> the only way Windows is "ahead" of Linux is in malware.
[01:10] <eXistenZ> IB-, I've been reporting a bug for like two weeks, I talked with a few developers. We tried to fix that, but they just gave up.
[01:10] <Euthymos> whatever, thank you
[01:10] <eXistenZ> mneptok, For desktop usage, I still prefer windows. I use ubuntu on my server
[01:10] <IB-> eXistenZ, which bug ?
[01:10] <mneptok> eXistenZ: enjoy cleaning the malware.
[01:11] <opti> until they port WoW to linux, its 2nd to windows ;)
[01:11] <eXistenZ> mneptok, I don't have malware here, although I've got no antivirus or any kind of scanner.
[01:11] <eXistenZ> mneptok, I'm quite cautious
[01:11] <mneptok> opti: i prefer actually getting laid to MMORPGs :P
[01:11] <IB-> actually i'm using XP (updated without anti virus and firewall), and i have 0 malware, and 0 viruses
[01:11] <opti> but i'll have a peek because i keep hearing about ubuntu
[01:11] <Ng> windowsy discussions would be better held in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[01:11] <Healot> it's a matter being stupid or not
[01:11] <Healot> NG NG
[01:11] <eXistenZ> mneptok, I prefer to clean malware rather than switching to windows everytime I want to print some document (because developers didn't bother to fix it).
[01:12] <mneptok> eXistenZ: didn't bother to fix what?
[01:12] <kimo> eXistenZ: u mean bec ur printer manufacturer didnt care about you
[01:12] <dionysos_> eXistenZ: ubuntu is still free don't complain
[01:12] <dionysos_> i can print in linux!
[01:12] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, I'm not complaining, he's pulling me.
[01:12] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, There is some bug in the network printers for cups.
[01:12] <opti> who prints things, honestly
[01:12] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, Some of them.
[01:13] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, The bug has been confirmed
[01:13] <dionysos_> jup
[01:13] <Ng> eXistenZ: is that the cups smb bug? if so it's been fixed for a while
[01:13] <opti> the last time i used a printer it was a BJ-200 connected to a 486
[01:13] <dionysos_> then they'll have to fix it :)
[01:13] <opti> hehe
[01:13] <redskull> how can i apdate my time
[01:13] <dionysos_> eXistenZ: why don't you try to fix it ;)
[01:13] <redskull> help me
[01:13] <dionysos_> download the source and fix it :d
[01:13] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, I talked with the developer responsible for the bug.
[01:13] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, We tried to fix it for like a day.
[01:13] <Ng> redskull: System->Administration->Time and Date
[01:13] <dionysos_> lol
[01:13] <dionysos_> nasty bug :p
[01:14] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, I just don't like to waste my time fixing stuff, that is supposed to be fixed.
[01:14] <kimo> redskull: sync with an atomic server, ntpdate -s time.nist.gov :)
[01:14] <redskull> ng from internet
[01:14] <mneptok> redskull: sudo ntpdate time.berkeley.netdot.net
[01:14] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, If you like to waste your time on installing some display driver, that's fine
[01:14] <Ng> redskull: yes, that tool allows you to do that
[01:14] <eXistenZ> dionysos_, I use ubuntu, however, for my server. which is ideal
[01:15] <Chousuke> hmm
[01:15] <redskull> ng i live in italy
[01:15] <opti> perhaps i should stop being a cheapskate and get an adsl2 modem
[01:16] <kimo> opti: what's adsl2 ?
[01:16] <Ng> redskull: it won't matter where you are
[01:16] <mneptok> redskull: the ntpdate command does not change for Italians ;)
[01:16] <Ng> kimo: offtopic
[01:16] <redskull> nessuno parla italiano?
[01:16] <Ng> !it
[01:16] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[01:16] <opti> not sure, might be a sort of australian term perhaps
[01:16] <kimo> !ar
[01:16] <ubotu> kimo: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[01:17] <Gullstad> !java
[01:17] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[01:17] <mneptok> Remy: check your sound input levels. by default, input levels are muted, iirc.
[01:17] <Gullstad> !javadebs
[01:17] <ubotu> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
[01:17] <Remy> mneptok - checked them all fine... I can hear the mic through the system
[01:18] <Remy> but nothing going through :(
[01:18] <Pistache`> heya
[01:18] <mneptok> Remy: check TeamSpeaks outgoing IP port range requirements and make sure those aren;t being blocked.
[01:19] <Gullstad> I'm trying to install my wireless card, and it tries to obtain java package, but it wont install. It says "This fule should be owned but root.root and be copied to /tmp.

[01:30] <Subhuman> Xgates, ive used it but i dont understand your question.
[01:30] <anarqi> xgates: programs run at certain levels
[01:30] <anarqi> level 2 means textmode only for instance
[01:30] <Gullstad> Subhuman: There is no file, I cant recive it from "apt".
[01:31] <Xgates> Subhuman: I mean if you want to stop a level it's listed in the help section to use ----->   -:
[01:31] <Subhuman> Xgates, to stop start you use spacebar
[01:31] <Subhuman> like put the cursor over the box you want tick and push space
[01:31] <Xgates> ok
[01:32] <Subhuman> Xgates, do you understand about runlevels? because you can break shit if you mess around in there without understanding what you are doing.
[01:32] <Subhuman> !runlevels

[01:33] <Subhuman> oh right well yeah go nuts with it:P
[01:33] <Xgates> unless Ubuntu is wanting it for some reason still at start up
[01:34] <anarqi> xgates there is better methods of turning services off then using that
[01:35] <Xgates> anarqi: well I was looking at rcconf and bum but those aren't listed so I guess just disable the files in /etc/init.d then
[01:35] <anarqi> xubuntu comes with service-admin check to see if maybe you can apt-get install service-admin
[01:37] <traveller> i am having trouble configuring an Epson Stylus C63 for colour printing, the images come out either black or negative, can anybody provide help on this?
[01:37] <Xgates> anarqi: I don't see any service-admin in Synaptic coming up
[01:37] <QPAD|w-busy> I have 2 p4 dual core running, but only 1 shows up? I'm using ubuntu 5.10, Any clues of how to sort this out? please.
[01:38] <anarqi> well its up to you, either change the init.d directly or get xubuntu-desktop package which has service-admin
[01:38] <mojojojo_> hello
[01:38] <IB-> QPAD|w-busy, you need SMP kernel prolly no ?
[01:38] <traveller> i am suspecting it involves some combination of colour model, ink set, and ink type
[01:38] <anarqi> traveller, i have no idea, i dont use a printer
[01:38] <anarqi> check the forums?
[01:39] <traveller> anarqi: alrighty
[01:39] <mojojojo_> I updated my Ubuntu to DD... and now I can't compile my programs... I doesn't find header *.h files and libraries.... Do you know the reaseon?
[01:40] <anarqi> check your compiler (gcc) in synaptic
[01:40] <anarqi> and mark it to reinstall or fix broken dependencies
[01:40] <mojojojo_> anarqi:  I c... so it was removed
[01:40] <iiiears> What to edit l to stop the screensaver daemon on boot up?  - installed good 'ol xscreensaver with config boxes for each one. - a'course now there is this gnarly warning box - ahem -      "The screensaver daemon doesn't seem to be running on screen 0:0  Launch it now?"
[01:40] <schalken> where can i go to configure the boot-loader?
[01:41] <mojojojo_> anarqi:  but wait... it does produce some errors... so it IS installed already
[01:41] <rpt> Is there a "tell rtp about" thingie for video decode essentials, ie xvid divx dvd playbacks? :)
[01:41] <iiiears> schalken: sure boot.list i think it is in the  grub boot folder

[01:44] <Xgates> anarqi: ok, plus that is Ubuntu's version of XFce if I want to run it yea?
[01:44] <iiiears> schalkan - someone else might know  sudo -S gedit <your_file> should do it.   there are  many sample configs listed on the net.
[01:44] <traveller> gerhard: type "free -m" without the quotes to get the values in Megabytes
[01:44] <gerhard> ok
[01:44] <anarqi> but you are missing a good chunk of it to bios it seems
[01:45] <anarqi> xgates: give it a try if you want, it looks just like ubuntu default, cept its lighter
[01:45] <iiiears> schalkan - I understand why you want to be careful and get it right the first time.
[01:45] <mojojojo_> anarqi:  I don't get... everything seems to be installed properly... gcc is  ok
[01:45] <Xgates> anarqi: ok thanks
[01:45] <gerhard> i am running an asus m5a notebook, do you know if i can buy a second 512 mb chip and put it into the machine?
[01:46] <QPAD|w-busy> IB-, yeah i do. but which one? I have no clues about such things.
[01:46] <anarqi> can you show me some of the errors mojojojo?
[01:46] <IB-> what you talking about ?
[01:46] <QPAD|w-busy> (13:37:59) (QPAD|w-busy) I have 2 p4 dual core running, but only 1 shows up? I'm using ubuntu 5.10, Any clues of how to sort this out? please.
[01:46] <IB-> dunno, the one for your CPU, only with SMP ?
[01:46] <mojojojo_> anarqi: sure... just a sec
[01:47] <QPAD|w-busy> I don't know, I guess a need a SMP kernel to have the both cpus working huh?
[01:47] <rundy> Hi all, quick question, I'm trying to downgrade from mysql-server 5 to 4.1, but the downgrade aborts what should I try?
[01:47] <IB-> yeah.. look for one
[01:47] <QPAD|w-busy> which one?
[01:48] <rpt> ubuntu - xvids - anyone? :p
[01:48] <IB-> synaptic search for kernel smp
[01:48] <iiiears> QPAD|w-busy:  read this this morning.  https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/30570
[01:48] <Xgates> anarqi: otherwise if I want to just disable the scripts you have to like chmod -x to disable them
[01:49] <finger> hmmm ...
[01:49] <QPAD|w-busy> iiiears, what does that have todo with my problem ?
[01:49] <mojojojo_> anarqi: ok, I found the problem behind this
[01:50] <knanand> i have a problem with X Windows
[01:50] <iiiears> QPAD|w-busy: Okay, It mentions problems with CPU usage and smp kernels. - nvm
[01:50] <CiberSkull> hi, I have a SB live! but it's is detected has a SB Audigy LS, i can play music but the sound isn't the best, but the problem is when I try to use MPlayer to play my videos, a error message apears: "alsa-control: unable to find simple control 'PCM',0" i tried to use alsaconf to fix this, but I must be doing something wrong because ist's the same....anyone?
[01:50] <QPAD|w-busy> Yeah i know, But i need to knwo exactly which smp kernel to use :(
[01:50] <anarqi> Xgates: You should use update-rc.d to disable services from starting up if you dont use xubuntu
[01:50] <mojojojo_> anarqi: it appears shift to DD led to removal of entire pvm library... so the trick was to install it, stupid me :] 
[01:51] <IB-> qpad: maybe the i686 smp one ?
[01:51] <rkr245> hi all
[01:51] <Xgates> anarqi: ok
[01:51] <QPAD|w-busy> IB-, what would the cmd be to download it ?
[01:51] <IB-> you dont know how to use synaptic?
[01:52] <QPAD|w-busy> nope
[01:52] <IB-> how do you install stuff on ubuntu?
[01:52] <anarqi> like this: update-rc.d -f<font size="3"> serviceNAME remove</font>
[01:52] <rkr245> apt GUI is synaptic
[01:52] <QPAD|w-busy> IB-, apt-get
[01:53] <rkr245> yes
[01:53] <IB-> QPAD|w-busy, so apt-get the kernel image
[01:53] <QPAD|w-busy> I use ubuntu server, sorry.
[01:53] <Xgates> anarqi: since Ubuntu has gdm installed for Gnome, then what do you use to boot into xubuntu as a graphical manager to boot either Gnome or XFce? I know how to do all of this by xinitrc but I thought I'd go the display manager bootup....
[01:53] <QPAD|w-busy> IB-, yeah but what exactly is the kernel image called? :D
[01:53] <IB-> do an apt search for kernel and smp
[01:53] <anarqi> xubuntu uses gdm too
[01:53] <IB-> and look
[01:53] <IB-> blah
[01:53] <IB-> laters
[01:53] <litz> one doubt, for installin the packages from this page: http://neutronic.mine.nu/ubuntu-breezy/ will I have to download one by one?
[01:53] <anarqi> at the login just switch the session
[01:54] <rkr245> IB-,presently iam using fedora and now iam planning to install ubuntu on one of my pc is there any different flavours in ubuntu
[01:54] <anarqi> rkr, IB left
[01:54] <rkr245> o.k
[01:55] <kimo> rkr245: ubuntu kubuntu Xubuntu
[01:55] <anarqi> there is 4 ubuntus out
[01:55] <anarqi> edubuntu
[01:55] <rpt> noone knows how to play xvids in ubuntu?? theres no xvid codec in aptcache
[01:55] <anarqi> kubuntu
[01:55] <anarqi> xubuntu
[01:55] <anarqi> ubuntu
[01:55] <dsas> !tell rpt about restrictedformats
[01:55] <ArthurBrazil> edubuntu
[01:55] <kimo> rpt: I guess it just plays in mplayer!
[01:55] <rkr245> iam basically use this linux distros for Servers
[01:55] <iiiears> What file starts the gnome screensaver daemon?
[01:55] <rkr245> so which one is better for me?
[01:55] <litz> someone here uses Anjuta in Ubuntu?
[01:55] <ArthurBrazil> xubuntu
[01:55] <kimo> rkr245: server then install as server with no gui :)
[01:55] <dsas> rkr245: Grab the ubuntu-server install disk
[01:55] <anarqi> if you dont need a gui, just get the ubuntu server version
[01:56] <ArthurBrazil> byut if u want a gui then get xubuntu
[01:56] <rkr245> can i get all software with that?
[01:56] <ArthurBrazil> yea
[01:56] <rkr245> like in fedora
[01:56] <anarqi> otherwise get xubuntu and just add in the server packages
[01:56] <dsas> rkr245: Sure, you can even get desktop packages if you want.
[01:56] <Xgates> anarqi: with update-rc.d it seems you need to know the runlevels, but how do you just stop something like lvm, what cmd would you use for it?
[01:56] <dsas> Xgates: /etc/init.d/lvm stop
[01:56] <rkr245> iam using Sip Express Router and Asterisk
[01:56] <Chris_Tucker> whats a more light on system resources login manager other than KDM or GDM
[01:57] <ArthurBrazil> !tell rkr245 about LAMP
[01:57] <Chris_Tucker> ?
[01:57] <rkr245> so i need the CDR
[01:57] <Xgates> dsas: yeah but I mean stop it for good so it doesn't start at bootup
[01:57] <rkr245> LAMP?
[01:57] <Xgates> more like disable I mean .....
[01:57] <anarqi> sudo update-rc.d -f lvm remove
[01:57] <whadar> I'm suffering from a huge crash when I open ubuntu's updater!!! X restarts itself! anyone familiar with this?
[01:57] <Xgates> anarqi: ok so do the same for all the others like that I want to disable?
[01:58] <anarqi> chris tucker: xdm is lightweight, but you would need to add that in on your own, it doesnt come with ubuntu i dont think
[01:59] <anarqi> yes xgates
[01:59] <rapha> Nah doesn't
[01:59] <anarqi> if they are boot up services
[01:59] <anarqi> check what they are first though
[01:59] <Xgates> anarqi: ok thanks, and one last one, then if I wanted to enable it, how would I run it?
[01:59] <rapha> But seriously, unless you have maybe a P166, xdm won't give you any more speed than GDM or KDM
[01:59] <rage> Has anyone here had any experience streaming webcams? I.E from my computer to my office?
[02:00] <whadar> this is really frustrating... cant open the updater :(
[02:00] <ArthurBrazil> aanyone know how to get a vnc server going in ubuntu?
[02:01] <Xgates> anarqi: what is your definition of a bootup service I don't follow
[02:01] <Xgates> different distros seem to define this differently
[02:02] <anarqi> xgates: update-rc.d<font size="3"> lvm defaults (to turn back on)</font>
[02:02] <anarqi> i hate this client
[02:02] <anarqi> grr
[02:02] <anarqi> adding html crap
[02:02] <Xgates> whats with the HTML code?
[02:02] <Seveas> anarqi, wtf are you chatting with?
[02:02] <anarqi> gaim is doing it
[02:03] <Seveas> gaim is evil
[02:03] <anarqi> anyways, bootup services are what is listed in init.d
[02:03] <anarqi> when the system boots
[02:03] <Xgates> anarqi: ok so --->  update-rc.d lvm defaults ?
[02:03] <anarqi> yes
[02:03] <Xgates> ok
[02:03] <anarqi> brb im switching clients
[02:04] <Xgates> anarqi: what did you mean by bootup services, everything that is in /etc/init.d does bootup at startup, so to me I would call that/all of them bootup services
[02:04] <rixxon> seems i get alot of udp packets on the only forwarded port i have, from lots of random hosts. are these some kind of internet crawlers or what?
[02:05] <nvictor> j'arrive pas  installer PEAR pour php
[02:05] <rage> !fr
[02:05] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:05] <void^> rixxon: and what are you running on that port?
[02:05] <rixxon> void^: nothing at the moment, i just have one forwarded for bittorrent
[02:05] <void^> rixxon: that's exactly why
[02:06] <nvictor> nvictor@nvictor-ubuntu:~$ lynx -source  http://go-pear.org/ | php
[02:06] <nvictor> bash: php: command not found
[02:06] <rixxon> void^: yea but i guess i get alot of udp packets on lots of other ports aswell, but my router doesn't forward it to me. but what are these?
[02:06] <void^> rixxon: many bittorrent clients have distributed database implementations nowadays.. run bt once and get some udp packets for days
[02:06] <rixxon> void^: oh
[02:07] <rixxon> void^: thank you then
[02:07] <rixxon> void^: is this bittorrent data? -> d1:ad2:id20:...g.z...t ..~.C....e1:q4:ping1:t8:..w...r.1:y1:qe
[02:07] <rixxon> (dots are unprintable characters)
[02:08] <zax1> shortly after the installer retrieves (some 257 software ) packages for installation, and then unpacking and installing. the nstaller crashes. i am installing XUBUNTU, any one ever had similar expiriences ? any suggestions ?( by the way, the same laptop was fine when i installed win 2000,kubuntu and ubuntu)
[02:08] <void^> rixxon: i'm not that familiar with those protocols (especially as that isn't within common bittorrent specs), but it does look like bEncoded data
[02:09] <rixxon> void^: ah
[02:09] <void^> rixxon: (most bittorrent metadata and protocol uses bencoding)
[02:10] <rixxon> void^: (ok i see)
[02:11] <mdjake> ArrynnIM
[02:11] <Healot> b-64 encoding - confusing
[02:12] <finger> Hi guys, I'm having some skype issues with a web app that I'm using with ff + ubuntu. I have kind of explained the problem in this skype forum thread, and the reply I got was a little obtuse. Would someone be able to have a look at it for me and try to explain why I can't use skype with ubuntu ? ... http://forum.skype.com/viewtopic.php?t=55326&highlight=
[02:12] <finger> or if someone has something to add, that'd be great ...
[02:12] <kimo> Hi, is there any typical 'cpu loading' for typical services, i.e. put DNS/DHCP on one machine (lite), put samba on a separate machine, same for squid ... (any per user cpu load statistics) ?
[02:13] <finger> Like, I said, skype just isn't working properly for me with ff ... :-(  ... which is really annoying, cause that was the last piece of the puzzle so to speak. And I'll have to change OS's if I can't get it working ... :-(
[02:13] <Xgates> anyone playing with the xubuntu-desktop?
[02:13] <POVaddct> Xgates: yes
[02:13] <Xgates> nice?
[02:14] <finger> I asked at #ff and they said that once the skype app is opened, then it's no longer a #firefox issue ... which sounds reasonable I suppose ...
[02:14] <kandinski> POVaddct: what exactly doesn't xfce have that gnome has?
[02:14] <Xgates> is it basically just regular XFce or changed around a bit, kinda a Ubuntu touch?
[02:14] <POVaddct> kandinski: xfce is smaller, less overhead
[02:14] <Xgates> kandinski: it's just lighter weight is the idea
[02:15] <Xgates> yeah WAY less overhead
[02:15] <Xgates> LOL
[02:15] <kandinski> but has all the same features?
[02:15] <kandinski> like, there is no compromise?
[02:15] <Tobberoth> I doubt it can have all the same features and still be so light.
[02:15] <POVaddct> Xgates: they have the latest beta (4.3.99) of xfce
[02:15] <Tobberoth> It takes no more than 128Ram or something
[02:15] <Xgates> kandinski: not really
[02:15] <Healot> minimal... yet we can call it ugly :-
[02:15] <Healot> hehe... nvm mind that
[02:16] <Tobberoth> Anyway, I ask the same question about KDE
[02:16] <Tobberoth> Why use KDE insted of GNOME?
[02:16] <POVaddct> Xgates: the default config looks much like the way gnome looks in ubuntu
[02:16] <Xgates> kandinski: but then again this is Ubuntu, so apt-get whatever you're missing  :)
[02:16] <Xgates> kandinski: -=---> http://www.xfce.org/
[02:16] <snoops> human abilty for choice Tobberoth
[02:16] <snoops> not everyone likes the same thing
[02:16] <Jozxyqk> hello.. im looking for a simple faq on how to "convert" a debian sarge installation into an ubuntu one.  is this possible?
[02:17] <Tobberoth> snoops: Yeah, but what is the different thing?
[02:17] <snoops> I haven't used kde much, but they take a more integrated approach, from what I've seen
[02:18] <snoops> konqueror being the default file browser and web browser.. similar file menu to that of windows
[02:18] <Jozxyqk> do i just have to make a change to my apt.sources file, or is it more difficult than that?
[02:18] <snoops> default theme feels kind of lollie like to me
[02:19] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, sarge  dapper is somewhat possible with careful apt pinning
[02:19] <Xgates> Tobberoth: from a developer stand point Gnome is a dependancy nightmare, actually I'm surprised to see the Ubuntu DEV team dealing with, it will be interesting to see how long it lasts. On the app side by default KDE has more of it's own apps then Gnome. Kde has a bigger Unix following and seems to have been a bit more on the stable side over the years too
[02:19] <[Wiebel] > hmm
[02:19] <Seveas> Xgates, snoops: desktop wars somewhere else please
[02:19] <[Wiebel] > what packet should in install to watch divx en mpegs with totem?
[02:19] <[Wiebel] > package even
[02:19] <Seveas> [Wiebel] , totem-xine and w32codecs
[02:19] <Tobberoth> Hmm, i see
[02:20] <Jozxyqk> seveas i am still not sure if "switch to ubuntu" is significantly better than "just use debian unstable".. but im looking to use xgl/compiz, and i know sarge doesn't directly support it
[02:20] <snoops> Seveas wow.. hang on.. he asked, I gave him my opinion, while not bashing either.. :)
[02:20] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: ok thansk
[02:20] <Xgates> Seveas: I'm not talking wars, I'm just answering a newbies questions about the DIFFERENCEs between KDE and Gnome   :)
[02:20] <Xgates> LOL
[02:20] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: is there a way to tell gnome to use something else then gnome per default?
[02:20] <Seveas> Xgates, until you start telling the truth about both desktops it's simply desktop wars, so quit it
[02:20] <efbie> Hello, a friend of mine has trouble playing audio cd on a ubuntu-server install. Anybody has ideas ?
[02:20] <Seveas> [Wiebel] , what do you mean?
[02:21] <efbie> (he's using xfce)
[02:21] <kimo> how do I determine the hardware specs required for Linux services (email/squid/apache ...) (any statistics?)
[02:21] <efbie> is there a special package to install or something ?
[02:21] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: well
[02:21] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, doesn't etch supprt xgl somewhat?
[02:21] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: if you want to watch an avi
[02:21] <[Wiebel] > it opens with totem
[02:21] <[Wiebel] > what if I want it to use mplayer?
[02:21] <Healot> !hardware
[02:21] <ubotu> well, hardware is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:22] <Jozxyqk> If I can get away with doing this without switching distributions.. or if i can find a specific set of instructions on how to switch to Ubuntu (im not familiar with apt pinning), id like to try either
[02:22] <Seveas> [Wiebel] , ah, rightclick on avi, file and select open with for a one-time change or properties for a permanent change
[02:22] <Jozxyqk> seveas - im using sarge.  etch is not stable yet
[02:22] <Jozxyqk> i could start using etch instead of using ubuntu
[02:22] <Jozxyqk> but im weighing my options
[02:22] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, the sarge->etch upgrade path will be smoother than sarge->dapper
[02:22] <Xgates> Seveas: well I didn't complete all I was going to say and you didn't let me, just so you know me, newbie I'm not, been on Freenode 8 years alot of Freenode staff know me and I don't cause wars, trouble or bash things, I just answer questions and help people, so you just misunderstood me was all   ;)
[02:23] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: great thanks
[02:23] <Jozxyqk> ive been using Linux for a zillion years, but dont have much experience with it on the desktop; i mostly do remote stuff
[02:23] <kimo> Healot: this is supported hardware! not hardware specs recommendation
[02:23] <Jozxyqk> is there a significant advantage to dapper over etch, though? or is it ultimately just down to package selection
[02:24] <Jozxyqk> assuming i dont need to upgrade everything every 6 months :)
[02:24] <kimo> Jozxyqk: polish all the way :)
[02:24] <Jozxyqk> kimo - polish what?
[02:24] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, i find ubuntu a much better integrated system than debian
[02:24] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, and the 'just works' experience is nice
[02:24] <Jozxyqk> so is it worth the hassle, to swap my system and move forward with ubuntu from there? do you think?
[02:25] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, if you have a partition to spare you can simply test
[02:25] <Jozxyqk> if so, can you point me to a faq/document on how to do the migration?  i am really surprised there's nothing i can find on the ubuntuforums site about this
[02:25] <zax1> shortly after the installer retrieves (some 257 software ) packages for installation, and then unpacking and installing. the nstaller crashes. i am installing XUBUNTU, any one ever had similar expiriences ? any suggestions ?( by the way, the same laptop was fine when i installed win 2000,kubuntu and ubuntu)
[02:25] <Xgates> Tobberoth: but just try them, they are a bit different and different apps, even at times having both can be nice, because some apps are only made for one desktop, not the other, so you need like the Kde Libs to get something Kde or the Gnome libs to get something Gnome like ....
[02:26] <Tobberoth> Xgate, won't downloading KDE-Desktop take a lot of extra space?
[02:26] <Tobberoth> and is it hard to switch between them?
[02:26] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, there probably is documentation but it boils down to pointing your sources to ubuntu, pinning dapper to 1001 and sarge to 50 and apt-get dist-upgrade and install a few useful metapackages (for kernel and desktop)
[02:27] <rapha> Tobberoth: yes and no
[02:27] <Seveas> zax1, live cd installer or tet-mode?
[02:27] <Jozxyqk> ok, i'll probably play around with this on a separate partition first, or something
[02:27] <Tobberoth> Because I wouldn't mind uninstalling amarok for GNOME and get the newest KDE version
[02:28] <Jozxyqk> maybe it would be easier to do a "fresh" ubuntu install, and then re-mount my home directories
[02:28] <Seveas> Tobberoth, ehrm... amarok == amarok
[02:28] <Seveas> there is no 'amarok for gnome' or 'amarok for kde', it's simply amarok
[02:28] <Seveas> Jozxyqk, that's definitely easier
[02:28] <Tobberoth> Seveas: Maybe so, but I can't find 1.4 for GNOME.. Ubuntu has 1.3 in the repositories
[02:28] <Jozxyqk> thanks seveas
[02:28] <Seveas> !info amarok dapper
[02:28] <ubotu> amarok: (versatile and easy to use audio player for KDE), section kde, is optional. Version: 2:1.3.9-0ubuntu4 (dapper), Packaged size: 7630 kB, Installed size: 18672 kB
[02:28] <Jozxyqk> ill be back again if i have more questions
[02:28] <Jozxyqk> bye
[02:28] <Seveas> Tobberoth, then 1.4 simply was released too late to be included
[02:29] <Tobberoth> I know, but I tried to install 1.4 from the kubuntu site.. it wouldn't work.
[02:29] <Seveas> Tobberoth, why not?
[02:29] <Tobberoth> No idea.
[02:29] <Seveas> did you add their repository or download a .deb file?
[02:29] <Tobberoth> I tried to use apt-get, but it was saying something about needing some sort of key
[02:29] <wij32> hey can someone help. im new to linux, just installed ubuntu, the grapihcal interface wont work with my monitor, its a 17" flat screen, any ideas?
[02:29] <Tobberoth> I thought it was KDE only stuff so I gave up
[02:30] <Seveas> Tobberoth, that with keys is simple
[02:30] <kimo> wij32: model of video card ?
[02:30] <Seveas> check www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic for instructions about gpg keys
[02:30] <Tobberoth> allright, I'll check
[02:30] <Seveas> don't bother reading the rest of the page, it's just the gpg keys that are useful for now ;)
[02:30] <wij32> kimo:128mb ati radeon x600
[02:31] <Tobberoth> Odd, that site won't load for me
[02:31] <Trackilizer> How does one get a daul headed VGA card to work?
[02:31] <protocol1> is there a way I can check the temp of my cpu in ubuntu?
[02:31] <Trackilizer> It's a no name card.
[02:31] <Seveas> When a repository in this list has a GPG key, you may need to add that to the APT trusted keys. You can do this with the following commands (replace KEY with the key ID)
[02:31] <Seveas>       gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv KEY
[02:31] <Seveas>       gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[02:31] <Tobberoth> nevermind, restarting firefox fixed it
[02:31] <Seveas> ^-- Tobberoth, those are the instructions
[02:31] <wij32> any ideas kimo?
[02:31] <Tobberoth> hmm i see
[02:32] <kimo> wij32: is that a laptop ? what happens on ur screen ?
[02:32] <Seveas> Tobberoth, the key ID in the case of ubuntu is DD4D5088
[02:33] <protocol1> is there a way I can check the temp of my cpu in ubuntu?
[02:33] <wij32> no its a desktop, its booting up, graphics and colour, then when it gets to login, it flashs and says resrart gdm when x configured correctly, then goes to text login
[02:34] <zax1> sorry was away, Seveas , its an installer
[02:34] <[Wiebel] > hmm
[02:34] <kimo> wij32: login as your user, then 'sudo -i' to become root (super user), then use "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to reconfigure your display.
[02:34] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: how do i tell totem-xine to use esd?
[02:34] <[Wiebel] > audio-driver:esd doesnt seem to do the trick
[02:34] <Seveas> protocol1, browse through /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/
[02:35] <Seveas> [Wiebel] , no idea, I use alsa 
[02:35] <wij32> kimo: ive tried that, i dont think i know the correct settings as it failed to work
[02:35] <[Wiebel] > Seveas: the thing is that some other process uses alsa as well
[02:35] <[Wiebel] > (like sd)
[02:35] <[Wiebel] > esd
[02:35] <kimo> wij32: well then install the ati driver
[02:35] <kimo> !ati

[02:38] <Tobberoth> sorry :)
[02:38] <[Wiebel] > I dont have system -prefs - multimedia :)
[02:40] <finger> running skype instance needs to be informed of call to be made. this was possible with d-bus (only). alas skype only supports obsolete d-bus0.23, which doesn't fit into most current distros.
[02:41] <finger> does this make sense to anyone ?
[02:42] <schalken> !msttcorefonts
[02:42] <ubotu> msttcorefonts is, like, sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts - you'll need multiverse enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list first
[02:42] <Tobberoth> Maybe that's why Skype is so darn slow on my computer.
[02:42] <jbaloul> "american components, russian components, all made in taiwan"
[02:42] <schalken> lol whoever programmed ubotu is a genius
[02:42] <Anasco> hello
[02:42] <schalken> hi
[02:43] <schalken> :D
[02:43] <jbaloul> anyone know of an rdesktop hack to display seamless windows like citrix?
[02:43] <Anasco> i jsut installed ubuntu
[02:43] <Tobberoth> Good work Anasco :) hope you like it.
[02:43] <Anasco> yeah it's freaking me out
[02:44] <Healot> freaked out?
[02:44] <uNople> why's that Anasco?
[02:44] <Healot> isn't ubuntu suppose to be a bit light on new userS?
[02:44] <b14ck> how do i disable forced check of filesystem if pc crash?
[02:44] <Tobberoth> Healot: Possibly, but it's still a huge change, coming from windows to Ubuntu
[02:44] <Anasco> nope i mean i am really crazy abt it
[02:44] <Healot> yeah
[02:45] <Healot> especially when you don't really know what an OS does :)
[02:45] <uNople> you mean you're now a Ubuntu zealot? ;-)
[02:45] <Tobberoth> Exactly :)
[02:46] <Tobberoth> Well, i'm going to try to install KDE.. let's hope the comp isn't screwed up
[02:46] <Anasco> that's right
[02:46] <finger> Is anyone here running skype on their computer ?
[02:46] <jbaloul> i i
[02:46] <Anasco>  am really green w
[02:46] <jbaloul> finger whats the porblem?
[02:46] <Healot> finger: yeah, but I installed in Windows (NT), pretty easy heh
[02:46] <paul_> ive run skype, but i prefer gizmo
[02:46] <uNople> well people, I'm having a problem with my Equiliser, it's not working for some reason
[02:47] <Anasco> am really green where an OS is concerned
[02:47] <uNople> I'm using ALSA, and a creative audigy 2
[02:47] <knanand> X server not starting due to driver error for Intel - D101GGC board
[02:47] <Frogzoo> !tell Anasco about docs
[02:47] <b14ck> how can i get rid of the forced filesystem check?
[02:47] <knanand> i have downloaded the drivers from intel site, but dpkg warns that no compiler found for compiling modules
[02:48] <Frogzoo> b14ck: you really don't want to do that ....
[02:48] <finger> jbaloul, basically I've linked skype to the skype protocol in firefox, but when I try to click on a skype: call to link. Ubuntu fires up a 'dead' skype, with everything blanked out. Windows on the other hand, fires up skype and dials the number, and everything works perfectly ... :-(
[02:48] <knanand> any suggetion to resolve this issue
[02:48] <Frogzoo> b14ck: so don't ask in a support channel how to kill your OS, ;)
[02:48] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  but my pc crashes very often and i'm tired of waiting 5 min for it to start again
[02:48] <Healot> knanand: install "build-essential" and the kernel source/header package
[02:48] <b14ck> lol
[02:48] <syndicate47> anyone here speak hungarian?
[02:48] <finger> I'll be unhappy if I have to use a windows OS just because of this issue ... :-(
[02:48] <paul_> knanand: go into synaptic and start looking for compilers to install
[02:49] <knanand> Healot: can u give me the command for that, coz my X windows not running
[02:49] <Frogzoo> b14ck: perhaps figure out what's causing your pc to crash?
[02:49] <paul_> ubuntu doesnt support compiling or make out of the box
[02:49] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  it's very old...>.<
[02:49] <rpedro> knanand: apt-get install build-essential
[02:49] <Frogzoo> b14ck: have you run memcheck?
[02:49] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  no
[02:49] <knanand> thank you repedro
[02:50] <Frogzoo> b14ck: well that's step #1 - reboot to grub & select memtest
[02:50] <paul_> rpedro: build-essential is a one step process for installing all necessary build packages for ubuntu? did not know that
[02:50] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  but i think that may be the problem. when i removed one of the ram i have it stopped for some time
[02:50] <uNople> so has anyone heard of why my equiliser wouldn't be working? I'm using ALSA, and Dapper Drake.
[02:50] <Frogzoo> b14ck: most problems show up in 30mins, though leaving it to run overnight's a good plan
[02:51] <jrib> syndicate47: #ubuntu-hu
[02:51] <b14ck> Frogzoo: ok so i just do that. thanx
[02:51] <Frogzoo> b14ck: try reseating the dims/sims & then maybe try slacking off the bios memory times can help
[02:51] <rpedro> paul_: maybe it dont install the kernel headers
[02:52] <paul_> ic
[02:52] <wij32> could someone help me, im new, my montior isnt working with ubuntu, how do i install xorg-driver-fglrx?
[02:52] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  if i figure out what u said i might just try that :P
[02:52] <rpedro> knanand: what kernel have you got installed, for what arch?
[02:52] <maxy_noob> can someone help me install a bin file please (google earth)
[02:52] <Spy> hey guys, how do i mount drives so that they are always mounted at startup
[02:52] <Frogzoo> b14ck: reseat = take memory out, clean pins with an eraser, put back in
[02:53] <the_Kane> hey can any one recommend a good 2d game? i've got a sh** graphics card so it cant be a to detailed game.. ;)
[02:53] <jrib> Spy: use /etc/fstab
[02:53] <saxin> wij32: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[02:53] <rpedro> wij32: have you installed any gfx card propritary drivers?
[02:53] <Frogzoo> b14ck: then google -> memory timing bios
[02:53] <rigonatti> Does anyone knows a channel or can help me with Wine Execution?
[02:53] <wij32> no i havnt installed anything, someone told me to try that
[02:53] <b14ck> Frogzoo: lol oky. i'm not english. i understand now :P
[02:53] <maxy_noob> or please direct me where instructions exist?
[02:53] <anarqi> rigon there is #wine
[02:53] <anarqi> lol
[02:53] <jrib> rigonatti: #winehq
[02:54] <rpedro> wij32: maybe you have to edit the xorg.conf file and put the horizontal and vertical sync for your monitor
[02:54] <Spy> I changed the resolution manually in the graphics setting file, it worked for one boot but the next boot it reset the resolution lower again.. How can i avoid this?
[02:54] <wij32> can you help me do that?
[02:54] <rpedro> wij32: depends if its a crt or tft
[02:54] <wij32> tft
[02:54] <wij32> 17" tft
[02:54] <rpedro> wij32: then it should detect automaticaly, it's probably something else
[02:54] <b14ck> Frogzoo:  thanx dude. baybay
[02:55] <wij32> hmmm...im really new so dont know what else to try
[02:55] <wij32> it is detecting everything when i run reconfigure xserver-org
[02:55] <wij32> but when i run startx it says no screens found
[02:55] <rpedro> wij32: run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver'
[02:55] <kandinski> how do I restart the sound when it stops working?
[02:56] <kandinski> using dapper + firefox + flash + youtube normally works, just not now
[02:56] <wij32> i have run that, and it seems to be detecting it pretty well
[02:56] <rpedro> wij32: and select 'ati' or 'radeon' as gfx driver
[02:56] <wij32> yes
[02:56] <_mali_> kandinski: try alsaconfig
[02:56] <kandinski> alsaconfig and then?
[02:56] <wij32> i do all that, it auto detects all the settings, but when i startx it says no screens found and stays in text mode
[02:56] <uNople> does anyone know of a channel, or can help me with my equiliser not working? I'm using ALSA
[02:57] <_mali_> kandinski: thans all
[02:57] <_mali_> that is all
[02:57] <kandinski> sudo apt-get install alsaconfig says package does not exist
[02:57] <thegve> Hello. I'm writing an internet cafe application. Can I command line call the balloon thing in ubuntu to display "You've got 5 minutes left" messages?
[02:57] <thegve> what is the tool name for this.
[02:57] <maxy_noob> guys, say I have a bin file I'd like to install on my desktop, how do I write the path in terminal?
[02:58] <thegve> ./binname
[02:58] <rpedro> wij32: then maybe you can try backup your current xorg.conf, revert to the original version when installed and start from there
[02:58] <thegve> first cd to the directory
[02:58] <jrib> maxy_noob: ~/Desktop/file.bin
[02:58] <nooby_god> How does one get Beagle in Dapper?
[02:58] <maxy_noob> chmod 777 $/Home/userid/Desktop/filename?
[02:58] <Frogzoo> maxy_noob: ~/Desktop/blah.bin
[02:58] <thegve> ( @maxy_noob)
[02:58] <maxy_noob> thanks
[02:58] <nooby_god> I want to have Beagle, the search thingy
[02:58] <wij32_> sorry got d/c
[02:58] <wij32_> any ideas with my monitor then?
[02:59] !lilo:*! Hi all. Need assistance with English -> German translation. Can you help? Please /msg me. Thanks!
[02:59] <rpedro> wij32: then maybe you can try backup your current xorg.conf, revert to the original version when installed and start from there
[02:59] <wij32_> :S
[02:59] <maxy_noob> so: chmod 777 `/Deaktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin?
[03:00] <rpedro> wij32_: or just move the current xorg.conf to another filename, and let dpkg-reconfigure create a new file
[03:00] <jrib> maxy_noob: if you fix your typos :)
[03:00] <maxy_noob> or sudo apt-get install ~/Desktop/filename.bin
[03:00] <thegve> apt-get doesn't work with files
[03:00] <wij32_> just run dpkg-reconfigure on its own?
[03:00] <protocol1> !ff1.5
[03:00] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:00] <kandinski> nooby_good: sudo apt-get install beagle
[03:00] <protocol1> !java
[03:00] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[03:00] <rpedro> wij32_: no, run the command I gave you before
[03:00] <the_Kane> QUESTION: where are all the temp folders and how can i delete the un-needed files? to free up disk space...
[03:00] <wij32_> zserver-org?
[03:01] <wij32_> x*
[03:01] <protocol1> !restrictedformats
[03:01] <ubotu> see !restricted
[03:01] <thegve> the_kane /tmp
[03:01] <protocol1> !restricted
[03:01] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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.
[03:01] <rpedro> wij32_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:01] <wij32_> ok, but what will making a new one achieve?
[03:01] <the_Kane> thegve: is that it.. ?
[03:01] <kandinski> if it doesn't install, then you need to do sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the sources for universe and multiverse: just remove the # at the beginning of each line that looks like code and not English
[03:01] <thegve> that is the temp directory
[03:01] <msturge_> hello everyone, can anyone help me with a Wireless internet problem. I have wpa_supplicant installed and running everything authenticates. After authentication i run dhclient eth1 and i get an ip...but i neet it to work automatically
[03:02] <thegve> the_Kane: firefox maintains it's cache in the user's profile dir
[03:02] <maxy_noob> Reading package lists... Done
[03:02] <maxy_noob> Building dependency tree... Done
[03:02] <maxy_noob> E: Couldn't find package
[03:02] <rpedro> wij32_: at least you get a fresh xorg.conf, and you can start again from there, less possibility of errors
[03:02] <maxy_noob> couldn't find package?
[03:02] <wij32_> ok
[03:02] <jrib> maxy_noob: you don't use apt with bin files, apt is for .deb packages in repositories
[03:03] <the_Kane> thegve: what about synaptget and apt-get... is that in tmp?
[03:03] <maxy_noob> sudo apt install?
[03:03] <thegve> I'll re-ask my question - How do I call the balloon thing to display a balloon text . Like the "you are almost out of diskspace" messages.
[03:03] <maxy_noob> what's the command then?
[03:03] <maddy_> anybody plays warsow  ?
[03:03] <thegve> the_Kane: apt-get clean
[03:03] <thegve> to clean apt's cache (downloaded packages that you've installed)
[03:03] <the_Kane> thegve: thanks ;)
[03:03] <jrib> maxy_noob: no, the bin file is just an executable, you probably just need to execute it: sh /path/to/file.bin
[03:04] <Frogzoo> thegve: xmessage will do it, - there might be a gnome equivalent
[03:04] <paul_> checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
[03:04] <paul_>   what package do i need to install for this?
[03:04] <maxy_noob> that's it! thank jrib
[03:05] <jrib> paul_: libxml-parser-perl
[03:05] <paul_> jrib thanks
[03:05] <finger> arrgghh ... my crontab isn't working for some reason. I've checked all the permissions. Even this simple script won't execute. Can someone look at it for me ... ? ... http://pastebin.com/710650  ...thanks
[03:05] <thegve> Frogzoo: xmessage is a bit ugly... A balloon would me much nicer.
[03:05] <thegve> but it's at least one method..
[03:05] <Tobberoth> The command for starting GNOME is gdm, what's the command for kde? Just kde right?
[03:06] <thegve> kdm
[03:06] <thegve> K display manager
[03:06] <Tobberoth> ah, thanks
[03:06] <aCiD2> Hi there, anybody able to give me a hand, I think my partition table is brokened :( Basically, I want to install Ubuntu again, and have a 120gb hdd with 3 ntfs partitions atm: winxp, data and vinvista. I want to install ubuntu over vista (so delete the partition). However, the ubuntu partition manager shows 120gb of unallocated space, which is not right
[03:06] <finger> Tobberoth: do you have skype working on your system ?
[03:06] <aCiD2> I did dmesg | grep /dev/hdb and it shows a load of "bad sector" messages
[03:06] <Tobberoth> finger: Yeah
[03:06] <finger> Tobberoth, does the one-click call thing work ?
[03:07] <thegve> Tobberoth: /etc/init.d/kdm start
[03:07] !lilo:*! Kudos to everyone who responded. We're all taken care of on that English->German translation. Thanks!
[03:07] <thegve> Tobberoth: if you run this as root, you'll get a KDE login window
[03:07] <Tobberoth> finger: I don't know, I just use it to send files.
[03:07] <jrib> finger: ./home/babo/output.exe, the . means current directory which you probably don't want
[03:08] <Tobberoth> allright
[03:08] <asplode> acid: I had the same problem on my disk with multiple partitions, the installer didnt recognize any of them
[03:08] <msturge_> Re-posting my quesiton....no rush though: can anyone help me with a Wireless internet problem. I have wpa_supplicant installed and running everything authenticates. After authentication i run dhclient eth1 and i get an ip...but i neet it to work automatically
[03:08] <aCiD2> asplode, any solutions?
[03:08] <the_Kane> QUESTION: how do i browse files in nautilus as root?
[03:09] <Seveas> msturge_, network-manager is the solution
[03:09] <Seveas> the_Kane, why would you?
[03:09] <the_Kane> seveas: to delete files in /tmp
[03:09] <Seveas> the_Kane, same question, why would you?
[03:09] <Netcad> where can i find information of how to do a rescue disk for fc5?
[03:09] <msturge_> Seveas, ok i have the network -manager installed but it doesn't show any wireless options
[03:09] <Seveas> /tmp gets cleared every reboot, no need to worry about it
[03:10] <the_Kane> seveas: so i dont have tmp files laying around on my hard disk
[03:10] <Seveas> msturge_, you need network-manager-gnime (or -kde) too
[03:10] <the_Kane> seveas: oh ok thanks
[03:10] <the_Kane> ;)
[03:10] <selinium> hi  all, I am trying to convert an ASF file to an MPEG using mencoder, but I keep losing the sound. Any ideas?
[03:10] <finger> jrib: darn ... I missed that on my example script. But the original scripts are done properly and they still don't work ...
[03:11] <jrib> finger: can you post the originals?
[03:11] <msturge_> Seveas: ok i have that too and i run the nm_applet and it only shows eth0
[03:11] <Seveas> msturge_, which chipset?
[03:11] <msturge_> ipw2200
[03:12] <Seveas> msturge_, odd, that should work ootb...
[03:12] <finger> jrib: they are LONG ....
[03:12] <Frogzoo> msturge_: ipw2200 works out of the box, is the wifi turned on?
[03:12] <msturge_> Seveas: wpa_supplicant connects and authenticates.....i just don't like haveing to run it all in the terminal (dhclient after authentication)
[03:12] <Seveas> msturge_, could you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces?
[03:12] <Seveas> msturge_, so far you only created the wpa_supplicant config?
[03:12] <jrib> finger: the example one is working now, right?
[03:13] <msturge_> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[03:13] <msturge_> pre-up /sbin/wpa_supplicant -i eth1 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -w -B
[03:13] <msturge_> pre-up sleep 5
[03:13] <msturge_> pre-up /sbin/dhclient eth1
[03:13] <Seveas> msturge_, pastebin, not paste...
[03:13] <Frogzoo> msturge_: run 'sudo iwconfig' - should read 'eth1     unassociated  ESSID:"NETGEAR"     etc....
[03:13] <finger> jrib: just a sec ... I made another mistake (d'oh)
[03:13] <Seveas> anyway, that is horrible, can do much better with integrated wpa things 
[03:13] <msturge_> oops....sorry...sadly i'm new to the irc thing....moreso than linux
[03:13] <Seveas> msturge_, remove all pre_up lines
[03:13] <Spy> any1 have an idea how I can burn mdf/mds  (FANTOM CD) files from linux?
[03:13] <nooby_god> How does one get Beagle in Dapper?
[03:13] <Seveas> msturge_, and add these two:
[03:14] <Frogzoo> Spy: wine & nero is the only way
[03:14] <Seveas> wpa-driver ipw
[03:14] <Frogzoo> Spy: wine & alcohol 120 soz, is the only way
[03:14] <jrib> nooby_god: enable universe and: sudo aptitude install beagle
[03:14] <Seveas> wpa-conf /path/to/your/wpaconfigfile
[03:14] <Seveas> msturge_, then it works automatically 
[03:14] <nooby_god> jrib: then what?
[03:14] <jrib> nooby_god: then you should have beagle afaik
[03:14] <nooby_god> and what does aptitude do? I always thought it was apt-get
[03:14] <maxy_noob> Guys Dapper freezes with screen savers and now with Google Earth. I suspect these is a driver issue with my vid card?
[03:15] <jrib> nooby_god: should get to it by going to places > search
[03:15] <finger> jrib: nope ... I changed it to 15 8  * * * cd /home/babo/ && ./output.exe ... and still no go ...
[03:15] <jrib> finger: no, just put: /home/babo/output.exe <-- if you type that in a terminal it makes the directory right?
[03:15] <tobberoth> I just started KDE.. and it looks exactly like GNOME, except for the new programs O.o
[03:16] <nooby_god> I have a file called et in my home folder, how ever whenever I type in et in my terminal, it complains that the command et does not exist
[03:16] <jrib> tobberoth: are you sure you are in kde?
[03:16] <Spy> thanks
[03:16] <the_Kane> QUESTION: in java what does it mean when you get the error "couldn't load AWT toolkit" how can i fix this?
[03:16] <kdingo> nooby_god try ./et
[03:16] <maxy_noob> I'll assume that it is and that I should install ATi's latest linux drivers
[03:16] <tobberoth> I'll check
[03:16] <Seveas> the_Kane, ##java
[03:17] <the_Kane> is that a channel?
[03:17] <finger> jrib: yes, but it should work either way ...
[03:17] <maxy_noob> here's the rub: I don't know how to run a .run file. My name is maxy_NOOB
[03:17] <nooby_god> that works kdingo
[03:17] <nooby_god> thank you
[03:17] <kdingo> good god
[03:17] <kdingo> *good good
[03:17] <kdingo> lol
[03:17] <Ng> maxy_noob: chmod +x foo.run ; /path/to/foo.run
[03:17] <Seveas> nice typo kdingo 
[03:17] <kdingo> :) thank you
[03:17] <msturge_> Seveas, ok now eth1 is showing up in ifconfig after i restarted the network. but it still isn't getting an ip
[03:18] <M_Fatih> hi..
[03:18] <project_2501> does anyone have any suggestions for P2P programs in Ubuntu, I just set up a ubuntu box for my girlfriend and she wants to download/share some songs
[03:18] <kdingo> azureus?
[03:18] <M_Fatih> how can i scan my fat partition? i need somethings like e2fsck
[03:18] <nooby_god> after I have beagle installed, how do I put the search box on the taskbar at the top?
[03:18] <jrib> finger: I don't know, I find that some things I think should work in cron end up not working, so I just stick with giving the full path to a script that does what I want
[03:18] <jrib> nooby_god: use deskbar
[03:18] <maxy_noob> ng should i write "foo"?
[03:18] <nooby_god> and do I need any fancy things for beagle for work?
[03:18] <Frogzoo> project_2501: azureus + frostwire
[03:18] <Ng> M_Fatih: fsck.vfat maybe
[03:18] <Ng> maxy_noob: no, "foo" would be replaced by the actual name of the .run file
[03:18] <project_2501> I noticed limewire was not in the package manager
[03:18] <nooby_god> I read I needed some options in my kernel for beagle to work
[03:19] <maxy_noob> k, just for me: what does "foo" stand for?
[03:19] <Frogzoo> !tell project_2501 about frostwire
[03:19] <zax1> have installed kubuntu as a server, and from the terminal am running "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start". but i get command not found, any ideas why not ?
[03:19] <jrib> nooby_god: I haven't touched my kernel and beagle works fine here
[03:19] <Ng> maxy_noob: it's just a generic term for "put the relevant information here"
[03:19] <maxy_noob> good to know. thanks
[03:19] <nooby_god> jrib: does the serach service start up on boot?
[03:19] <Frogzoo> maxy_noob: it's old army speak 'fubar'   = messed up beyond all recognition
[03:19] <Ng> zax1: try kdm
[03:19] <zax1> i did, same thing
[03:19] <jrib> nooby_god: should
[03:20] <project_2501> hmmm, frostwire looks promising, thanks mates ;)
[03:20] <nooby_god> alright jrib, so after a boot it will start for me
[03:20] <jrib> nooby_god: you should be able to search now, without restartin
[03:20] <void^> on the topic of foo: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3092.html
[03:21] <nooby_god> because it currently says: Serach Service not running, and there is button for starting the serach service
[03:21] <maxy_noob> here's what I did: chmod +x ati-driver-installer-8.25.18-x86.run ; /Desktop/to/ati-driver-installer-8.25.18-x86.run
[03:21] <nooby_god> but when I press that button nothing happems
[03:21] <maxy_noob> didn't work
[03:21] <finger> jrib: this doesn't work either ... 21 8  * * * /home/babo/output.exe
[03:21] <project_2501> frostwire might be better for her because she is one of those ppl who downloads 1 or 2 songs from an album, whereas I would rather just get the whole album
[03:21] <void^> finger: is that actually a windows executable file?
[03:21] <Xgates> how do you use Synaptic for ---> 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get dist-upgrade'?
[03:22] <Ng> maxy_noob: /Desktop/ isn't a valid path, you need something like /home/YOURUSERNAME/Desktop/ or ~/Desktop/  (~ in unix means "my home directory")
[03:22] <Yoosah> Xgates: reload and mark all updates
[03:22] <jrib> finger: do you get any mail form cron?  (run 'mutt')
[03:22] <finger> void^: :-) ... nope ... wait a sec though, I think root may not be able to run scripts in babo ...
[03:22] <maxy_noob> ok, I'll try that
[03:22] <maxy_noob> can I rename the file to something shorter? will it affect the installation?
[03:22] <Ng> maxy_noob: yes you can, no it won't
[03:22] <Xgates> Yoosah: thanks, so "reload" is the update part?
[03:23] <nooby_god> how do I get deskbar-applet on my taskbar?
[03:23] <Seveas> nooby_god, rightclick on taskbar, click "add to panel"
[03:23] <jrib> nooby_god: after it is isntalled, right click on your panel and add it
[03:24] <Yoosah> Xgates: yep
[03:24] <Xgates> thanks
[03:24] <Yoosah> np
[03:24] <Frogzoo> nooby_god: 'sudo apt-get install deskbar-applet' - logout/in - right click taskbar - add applet
[03:24] <maxy_noob> I did this this time with the similar results:  chmod +x ati-driver.run ; ~/Desktop/to/ati-driver.run
[03:24] <maxy_noob> No such file or directory
[03:25] <nooby_god> Frogzoo: it is installed, but there is no add applet button, there is an add to taskbar button
[03:25] <finger> jrib: about an hour ago a cron script sent a mail ... so something must have been working ...
[03:25] <Frogzoo> nooby_god: log out /in
[03:26] <Frogzoo> nooby_god: yes - add to taskbar
[03:26] <maxy_noob> Ng?
[03:26] <Scognito> hi
[03:26] <nooby_god> I logged out and in
[03:27] <Frogzoo> nooby_god: right click - add to panel
[03:27] <kdingo> how do i get a script to run while linux is booting?
[03:27] <nooby_god> I added it, but it's in the middle of my bar, how do I move it over?
[03:27] <kdingo> automatically, i mean
[03:27] <nooby_god> kdingo: commands at boot?
[03:27] <aeon17x> !pastebin
[03:27] <Frogzoo> nooby_god: click on your desktop - then press F1
[03:27] <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] .
[03:28] <nooby_god> sweet
[03:28] <nooby_god> thanks
[03:28] <maddy_> how do i setup my monitor to turn off after a while?
[03:28] <maxy_noob> Is this not the right command (provided there are no typos)? chmod +x ati-driver.run ; ~/Desktop/to/ati.driver.run
[03:28] <secureboot> i'm a little confused as to how the diskless ubuntu howto could work for multiple machines - each client has /etc/ mounted rw - wouldn't that be a big problem?  For instance, each client would try to change /etc/hostname from dhcp...
[03:28] <nooby_god>  kdingo: /etc/rc.local IIRC
[03:28] <kdingo> nooby_god, i always have to tell ndiswrapper to start up manually. i'd like it to do it automatically
[03:28] <Wikipedia-Gast> dhcp sucks
[03:28] <kdingo> ah cool thanks
[03:28] <maddy_> how do i setup my monitor to turn off after a while?
[03:28] <Frogzoo> maddy_: system -> prefs -> screensaver
[03:28] <Wikipedia-Gast> dhcp sucks
[03:28] <maxy_noob> anyone
[03:28] <maddy_> frogzoo yes and then?
[03:29] <maxy_noob> ?
[03:29] <nooby_god> kdingo: I'm sure you can put some sort of command into your /etc/network/interfaces too
[03:29] <Wikipedia-Gast> mgalvin sucks
[03:29] <Frogzoo> maddy_: soz - maybe under power preferences
[03:29] <kdingo> nooby_god: that is a good point. i already know how to do that :)
[03:29] <Wikipedia-Gast> mgalvin sucks
[03:29] <prxq> maxy_noob: the name before and after the ';' is different.
[03:29] <Wikipedia-Gast> prxq sucks
[03:29] <maddy_> frogzoo thanx
[03:30] <Wikipedia-Gast> maddy sucks
[03:30] <prxq> ati-dri vs ati.dir
[03:30] <Wikipedia-Gast> prxq sucks
[03:30] <Scognito> someone with matrox g400 here? i have few question if any

[03:30] <void^> i have a g450.. somewhere
[03:30] <Wikipedia-Gast> void sucks
[03:30] <mgalvin> can someone please kill this stupid bot
[03:31] <Wikipedia-Gast> mgalvin sucks
[03:31] <jrib> Wikipedia-Gast: stop please
[03:31] <maxy_noob> prxq, you mean it ought to be different?
[03:31] <void^> mgalvin: /ignore solves all problems

[03:31] <maxy_noob> I don't follow
[03:31] <Scognito> void^, lol
[03:31] <Scognito> just a question btw
[03:31] <Wikipedia-Gast> maxy_noob sucks
[03:31] <Scognito> i have dri loaded ok  but all my applications run slow
[03:31] <Scognito> 3d application i mean
[03:31] <maxy_noob> wikipedia-Gast, I know that already
[03:31] <Scognito> like tuxracer or others
[03:32] <mgalvin> void^: good point, thanks
[03:32] <prxq> maxy_noob: no, they have to be equal. In waht you pasted they are different
[03:32] <mgalvin> all is well now :)
[03:32] <void^> Scognito: err, those matrox boards aren't known for 3d performance
[03:32] <maxy_noob> chmod +x ati-driver.run ; ~/Desktop/to/ati.driver.run
[03:32] <Scognito> void^, i used this card on my old p3 and it worked so great
[03:32] <maxy_noob> I don't see where they're different
[03:32] <maxy_noob> ati-driver.run
[03:32] <Scognito> same card, changed pc, installed ubuntu ( i had xfree before) and now it is slow
[03:33] <Ng> maxy_noob: you probably don't need the "to/" bit
[03:33] <void^> Scognito: i used to get decent performance in glTron on a celeron466 in 640x480 and 16bit, but it really can't handle more than that
[03:33] <Ng> maxy_noob: that confusion is probably my fault, sorry
[03:33] <maxy_noob> ah, thanks NG
[03:33] <maxy_noob> see wiki!
[03:33] <Scognito> i played tuxracer at about 30fps
[03:33] <maxy_noob> it's not just me
[03:33] <Scognito> now it is only 9
[03:33] <void^> Scognito: heh, well, try 16bit modes, makes a huge difference to 32/24 bit
[03:33] <Scognito> maybe xorg doesn't support well
[03:33] <Scognito> it was 24 bit on p3
[03:34] <Scognito> something really changed under
[03:34] <maxy_noob> still doesn't work :(
[03:34] <maxy_noob> chmod +x ati-driver.run ; ~Desktop/ati.driver.run
[03:34] <void^> Scognito: strange, try the matrox driver package
[03:34] <Scognito> tried
[03:34] <Scognito> but support is <= 6.8
[03:35] <void^> Scognito: doesn't matter, works anyway iirc
[03:35] <Scognito> btw i can try
[03:35] <Scognito> :)
[03:35] <Scognito> the installer didn't worked
[03:36] <Scognito> but i know bash ;)

[03:40] <Spy> brb
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> Spy,  ive seen a lot of packages wrongly want the xlibs package. its not needed with the new X. but the pakcage makers dont realize that yet.
[03:40] <kdingo> vexmaster: so yours show messages while its booting but not while its shutting down?
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> !xlibs
[03:40] <ubotu> I heard xlibs is needed for cedega and opera.  use the xlibs-dev package
[03:40] <mitcheloc> heh, silly question, how do i install a norach type of rpm on ubuntu? rpm command = not found....
[03:40] <ondraster> how is it with sending CZ versions of ubuntu in Czech republic?
[03:40] <maxy_noob> is there a space in between "cd" and "~"?
[03:40] <zax1> many thanks
[03:40] <jrib> maxy_noob: yes
[03:40] <maxy_noob> same thing
[03:41] <Vexmaster> kdingo: ya, but onyafter i had installed nvidia drivers. did the same happen to you?
[03:41] <ubuntu> I sad!
[03:41] <maxy_noob> sudo chmod +x ati-driver.run ; cd ~/Desktop/ati-driver.run
[03:41] <maxy_noob> chmod: cannot access `ati-driver.run': No such file or directory

[03:41] <GaiaX11> CCedilla in ubuntu. How?
[03:41] <jrib> maxy_noob: where is ati-driver.run?
[03:41] <kdingo> vexmaster: i still have to check my graphics drivers. i don't think they're installed right. i don't even get messages when it's shutting down though
[03:41] <maxy_noob> on my desktop
[03:41] <ubuntu> I have problems and idk if it is from switching Vid cards or updating to dapper
[03:42] <Vexmaster> kndingo: just a blank screen right?
[03:42] <jrib> maxy_noob: no, do the cd ~/Desktop first, before anything else
[03:42] <ondraster> so.. i go off.. bye :P
[03:42] <maxy_noob> and then?
[03:42] <jrib> maxy_noob: follow the wiki
[03:42] <kdingo> vexmaster: 3/4 of it is blank. theres a bit in the upper left corner where it sometimes displays a bit of text during a fsck
[03:42] <Vexmaster> hmmm
[03:42] <zOap> what package should I install to get basic java?
[03:43] <maxy_noob> sorry jrib, follow the wiki?
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> !java
[03:43] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[03:43] <Spy> gnomefreak: Restarted, still no work
[03:43] <zOap> Dr_Willis, thanks :)
[03:43] <maxy_noob> (please be patient with me: I'm a nooby noob
[03:43] <jrib> maxy_noob: the wiki has instructions on installing the ati-driver, you can just follow them step by step, ubotu should have sent you a link in a private message
[03:43] <Vexmaster> kdingo: are you able to get terminal when using crtl+alt+F1?
[03:43] <_thief_> server irc.tin.it
[03:43] <maxy_noob> oh geez, I just saw ubotu's pm
[03:43] <maxy_noob> sorry
[03:43] <Frogzoo> !tell maxy_noob about docs
[03:44] <jrib> maxy_noob: or better yet, follow the doc.ubuntu link
[03:44] <jrib> maxy_noob: np, most people here are probably new
[03:44] <suprchris> would anyone mind helping me with grub?
[03:44] <kdingo> vexmaster: strange, it doesn't seem to recognise ctrl+alt+f1
[03:44] <dionysos_> suprchris: whats wrong with grub? :)
[03:45] <suprchris> i would just like to understand how to configure it
[03:45] <Vexmaster> kndingo: i have the same problem too
[03:45] <dionysos_> ah
[03:45] <MusicEatingPanda> i upated to dapper and switched to a Nvidia And now my computer wont boot past mounting the root file system and wont get a net connection and now i just booted a 5.10 CD and its saying i have a new fast usb device and then errors about it
[03:45] <suprchris> ubuntu and wiki don't really help me
[03:45] <dionysos_> and google? :)
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  the grub homepage has the definitive manual/book on grub.
[03:46] <dionysos_> cause grub isn't really ubuntu related
[03:46] <GaiaX11> How to view this word: cano in ubuntu, because it shows this word as can??o
[03:46] <suprchris> well you guys are so helpful on here i thought i'd give you a try
[03:46] <kdingo> vexmaster: i'll try googling for info in a bit
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  got a more specific issue with grub? its rather straight forwared once you learn the fundamentals of it.
[03:46] <jrib> suprchris: try to describe exactly what you want to configure
[03:46] <suprchris> well i'd like to change the boot order
[03:46] <byteshack> is there a new ubuntu unstable?
[03:47] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  you mean the order of the menu entries?
[03:47] <suprchris> well yeah i suppose but thats not so important
[03:47] <byteshack> now that dapper is out of the way, is there a more "cutting edge" ubuntu yet?
[03:47] <suprchris> just want to change which one is booted as default
[03:47] <MrData> byteshack: edgy
[03:47] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  thats trivially easy.. and mentioned in the comments of the grub.conf file
[03:48] <wildman> hello *
[03:48] <wildman> I have a question on Breezy x86
[03:48] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  :P i set mine up where it auto-defaults to the last entry selected.
[03:48] <knanand> debian package is not getting installed, earlier error message was unable to compile and to resolve that we have installed apt-get install build-essential. But now the installation fails with unable to update kernel messae
[03:48] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  the thing to rember about grub is that it STARTS counting at ZERO.
[03:48] <wildman> I'm trying to run an X-Window program on a breezy machine to which I'm connecting from dapper using ssh
[03:48] <suprchris> but when i open up the file in gedit or whatever to edit it it has all kinds of options and things that i don't understand
[03:49] <wildman> however, I'm getting that the display cannot be opened
[03:49] <wildman> what I'm expecting is the X app to open on this machine (dapper)
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> suprchris,  thats when reading and thinking and learning come into play. :P
[03:49] <suprchris> the way it's written is confusing other than that i don't have a problem changing things
[03:49] <suprchris> trust me i have that
[03:49] <suprchris> more than anything it's just confusing
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> suprchris, ## default num
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> # Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0,
[03:49] <Angel_Dex> i upated to dapper and switched to a Nvidia And now my computer wont boot past mounting the root file system and wont get a net connection and now i just booted a 5.10 CD and its saying i have a new fast usb device and then errors about it
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> rather clear . ;P    default 1, would boot the 2nd item by default ,, default 0 boots the first,
[03:50] <wildman> but so far, the best I could achieve is (after running xhost + on a VT opened in breezy) to open the window on breezy's display, instead of this one
[03:50] <suprchris> so if i wanted to boot the last item on the menu and there are 8 entries i'd put 7?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> yep.
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> A+
[03:51] <suprchris> yeah i understood that
[03:51] <byteshack> are there edgy repositores available yet?

[03:52] <suprchris> oh i notice how all the help things that ubuntu has tell you to backup the file that you're editing, but how would you replace the edited file if you messed it up with the backup?

[03:53] <mitcheloc> when i try the sudo apt-get install gnome-devel... line, it says that the packages can't be found, am i missing something in my sources.list?
[03:54] <Dr_Willis> it pays to spend some time reading a few Bash Tutorials - its such a Core part of Linux.
[03:54] <xenalise> hmmm?

[03:56] <SuseUX> Dr_Willis, where it's at
[03:56] <Dr_Willis>  X -configure   will generate a new default X config.. i think theres a ubuntu tool or 2 also that remakes them
[03:57] <joebush> ericz: extended desktop, or clone?
[03:57] <ericz> extended
[03:57] <xenalise> dpkg-reconfigure xorg ?

[04:00] <Cass> webguy
[04:00] <nooby_god> ok jrib
[04:00] <webguy> so how is my php script sending email?
[04:01] <MikeA> has anyone compiled mod_ntlm2 with apxs?
[04:02] <zOap> does anyone know of a good syntax editor with file browser and line numbering? I like scite, but it has no browser like context...
[04:02] <Angel_Dex> can a Nvidia MX4000 made by Asus make any major problems in linux with ubtunu?
[04:02] <Cass> webguy, mabey another mail app ?  try dpkg -l |grep mail
[04:03] <zax1> how do i start the xfce4 desktop from the terminal ?
[04:03] <webguy> does postfix install with the default?
[04:03] <Concord_Dawn> webguy: I believe so.
[04:03] <zax1> i followed this guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingXubuntu  and it wouldnt work - i get command not found.
[04:04] <webguy> crud - i just deleted it!  i tried reinstalling but it is failing - this is bad
[04:04] <SuseUX> zax1, startxfce should be
[04:04] <Concord_Dawn> why's it failing?
[04:04] <webguy> i thought sendmail was up since my php info said it was
[04:04] <apokryphos> zax1: install xubuntu-desktop
[04:04] <Concord_Dawn> webguy: sendmail < postfix.
[04:04] <ubuntu_> hello, maybe its a strange question, but is there a way to swap the ubuntu icon in gnome(menu-bar) with a gnome icon?
[04:04] <webguy> i decided to install postfix then figured why not use sendmail
[04:04] <Concord_Dawn> because postfix is far more flexible and secure?
[04:04] <webguy> so i took postfix out and deleted /etc/postfix/*
[04:05] <zax1> how do i make it start by default every time the machine starts ?
[04:05] <Concord_Dawn> webguy: Did you apt-get remove postfix?
[04:05] <webguy> something like that
[04:05] <webguy> postfix: No such file or directory
[04:05] <bensode> morning everyone!
[04:05] <webguy> now what?
[04:06] <Concord_Dawn> webguy: When you install things with apt-get (which is the default way to do it in Ubuntu), you need to remove them with apt
[04:06] <Concord_Dawn> The easiest way to reinstall should be just doing sudo apt-get install -reinstall postfix
[04:06] <webguy> i did, but i saw that the directory still had files in it ... so i deleted them
[04:06] <GaiaX11> bensode, what do you mean by morning? :-)
[04:06] <zax1> k, woked now
[04:06] <Spy> what file should i edit to change my boots for grub?
[04:06] <Concord_Dawn> webguy: There's an option to remove configuration files when you remove.
[04:06] <zax1> should change the guide, there is a typo
[04:06] <dionysos_> webguy: to completly remove something
[04:06] <Concord_Dawn> Spy: it's in /etc/grub I think?
[04:07] <bensode> heh well it's morning here for me in the US at least =P
[04:07] <dionysos_> apt-get remove -purge
[04:07] <webguy> Concord_Dawn:  the command you gave me failed - it does not recognize -reinstall
[04:07] <webguy> can you check syntax?
[04:07] <HellDragon> im crawling in the dark
[04:07] <nooby_god> where do I report problems with networking?
[04:07] <dionysos_> there is a kernelupgrade today?
[04:07] <jrib> webguy: --reinstall
[04:07] <zax1> done now, i am using an intel motherboard with an intel graphics  driver, how do i install a better driver than the one shipped in xubuntu ?
[04:08] <Spy> concord_dawn, yeah i tried that one.. it is empty.. can this be?
[04:08] <nooby_god> I think I may have found a problem, it would be good if I talked with a developer
[04:08] <zax1> at the moment the screen is not spread across the entire display
[04:08] <Concord_Dawn> Spy: Does your grub still work? :-P
[04:08] <Spy> well my ubuntu boots from grub i think?
[04:08] <Concord_Dawn> it does indeed.
[04:08] <Concord_Dawn> So then it obviously is possible.
[04:09] <Concord_Dawn> Why do you need to edit your grub menu?

[04:10] <webguy> any ideas how to troubleshoot Concord_Dawn
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> yes.
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> sudo apt-get remove -purge postfix
[04:11] <Spy> is it possible that the grub config is elsewhere?
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> then try sudo apt-get install postfix
[04:11] <Spy> Or can't i edit it in the boot menu?
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> Spy: Yes.
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> You can edit the boot menu

[04:13] <bensode> GaiaX11: You can alter the default init code in /etc/inittab file but not sure what the Ubuntu runlevel to change it to

[04:14] <GaiaX11> Concord_Dawn, that was what i meant. Thanks anyway!
[04:14] <webguy> yeah i tried that - and ended up deleting postfix :)
[04:14] <IB-> how can i get the totem media player (with xine) to support deinterlacing /
[04:15] <Concord_Dawn> !postfix
[04:15] <ubotu> it has been said that postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix or here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[04:15] <Concord_Dawn> second link webguy
[04:15] <dooglus> GaiaX11: control-alt-f1 won't affect ubuntu booting into gdm, and /etc/inittab won't help.  you want to use "update-rc.d" to do what you want.
[04:15] <maxy_noob> guys, I installed google earth but I can't find it in my menus
[04:15] <webguy> will try thx
[04:16] <dick-richardson> maxy_noob: do you have the debian menu installed?
[04:16] <maxy_noob> uhm, all I know is that I'm using the default gnome system that came with ubuntu dapper
[04:17] <Concord_Dawn> maxy_noob: It won't be in the menu most likely.
[04:17] <bensode> dick-richardson: Take a goole or Ubuntu forum seach on apmd for your power save issues.  That's what controls power settings on portables and some desktops
[04:17] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i convert s3m [MOD]  to mp3?
[04:17] <maxy_noob> :( How do I launch it then?
[04:17] <dick-richardson> bensode: thank you!
[04:17] <Concord_Dawn> GaiaX11: To disable the X server from starting all together, you need to edit your xorg.conf. It's in /etc/X11
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> maxy_noob: Try locate'ing it.
[04:18] <MKR> Are there any GUI based APC UPS monitoring programs?
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> (locate is a command)
[04:18] <v0lksman> Hello!  Anyone here today know anything about FreeNX or NX in general?
[04:18] <MKR> All I can find is a daemon that shuts down if the battery dies
[04:18] <IB-> anybody here know how to enable deinterlacing in any media player in linux (totem perfered)
[04:18] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: he doesn't want to disable the web server.  he wants gdm not to run at boot.
[04:18] <maxy_noob> can someone help me put a shortcut in my menu (sorry, Windows user here)
[04:18] <dick-richardson> maxy_noob: install menu and menu-xdg for the debian menu
[04:19] <dick-richardson> it's probably in there
[04:19] <bensode> MKR: APC used to have a handy linux client to monitor APC UPS units but I don't think it's "free" anymore
[04:19] <webguy> Concord_Dawn: my question is how to check email that is incoming at this point
[04:19] <dionysos_> hey question: how do i get the new icons in my menu (i upgraded from breezy)
[04:19] <MKR> bensnode: I'm ok with non-free as long as it's not unreasonably expensice
[04:19] <MKR> thanks
[04:19] <dionysos_> and i still have the old icons
[04:19] <maxy_noob> ok, I'll look in synaptic
[04:19] <MKR> bensode
[04:19] <Concord_Dawn> dooglus: X server is your GUI.
[04:19] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: I know
[04:20] <Concord_Dawn> dooglus: Then why do you call it a web server? It's not.
[04:20] <maxy_noob> menu-xdg appears to be installed already
[04:20] <bensode> MKR: Try a google seach on "apc linux"
[04:20] <dionysos_> hey question: how do i get the new icons in my menu (i upgraded from breezy)
[04:20] <zax1> running a slimmed down version of XUBUNTU, i need a driver but dont know how to install or find it, can any one help ?
[04:20] <maxy_noob> installing "menu"
[04:20] <Concord_Dawn> zax1: What driver do you need?
[04:20] <IB-> what is the best light-weight IDE ? anjuta ?
[04:20] <bensode> MKR: I just glanced the APC site didn't see anything that jumped out at me but google might have it cached somewhere =)
[04:21] <gnuaha7> zax1: driver for what???
[04:21] <zax1> a graphics driver for a 830m laptop board
[04:21] <MKR> Yeah, I'm probing google
[04:21] <MKR> thanks
[04:21] <maxy_noob> ok done. now what?
[04:21] <gnuaha7> zax1: why its doesnt start x??
[04:21] <dionysos_> zax1: what display ati or nvideo?
[04:21] <dionysos_> hey question: how do i get the new icons in my menu (i upgraded from breezy)
[04:21] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: typo.  but his question was: "how can i boot ubuntu not in gui mode? Because when i boot ubuntu it leads me to gdm login"
[04:21] <zax1> neither , intel integrated
[04:22] <zax1> startx , ? i dont understand the question
[04:22] <dionysos_> zax1: just no display driver then
[04:22] <gnuaha7> dionysos_: the menu editor... alacarte i guess
[04:22] <dionysos_> gnuaha7: ?
[04:22] <Concord_Dawn> dooglus: If you look at the first party of the question, it says "How can I boot Ubuntu not in GUI mode?" You disable the X server to make this happen.
[04:22] <v0lksman> dooglus:  edit /etc/initab and change the default init to 3
[04:22] <dooglus> v0lksman: gdm runs in runlevel 3
[04:23] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: that's overkill - it stops him using X at all
[04:23] <v0lksman> wha?  serious?  shit....I never looked in Ubuntu...only been using it for a week...sory
[04:23] <v0lksman>  :)
[04:23] <Concord_Dawn> dooglus: No it doesn't.
[04:23] <dionysos_> zax1: why do you need a display driver? if its intigrated it sucks anyways :p
[04:23] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: he's asking about how to configure his boot process, not how to break his system
[04:23] <webguy> thanks for all your help Concord_Dawn
[04:23] <Concord_Dawn> When I have it set up like that, all I do is type gdm into the prompt and it pops me open gdm
[04:23] <Concord_Dawn> np webguy
[04:23] <zax1> what do u mean, "just no display driver" . i need a display driver for intel 830m integrated graphics controller. i cant seem to find where to manage my drivers and/or how to get a better one
[04:23] <Concord_Dawn> Well, ok, let me rephrase myself. Not disable X, stop it from starting with the system.
[04:24] <zax1> i need a driver cuz at the moment the display is not stretched across the entire screen
[04:24] <dionysos_> whats wrong with the driver now?
[04:24] <zax1> i need a driver cuz at the moment the display is not stretched across the entire screen
[04:24] <dooglus> Concord_Dawn: what's the setting in xorg.conf for that?
[04:24] <inFw> Hello. I've recently updated from 5.10 to dapper and lost sound. It was working fine before. I've been googling and found out it's because I'm not using the new kernel, which I'm not because it kernel panic's. Further research showed me that it's a conflict with acpi (it's a laptop). Any suggestions on how I can get the new kernel working?
[04:24] <dionysos_> zax1: linux installs the right driver when you installed it
[04:24] <zax1> i have about an inch on left right up and down margins
[04:24] <dionysos_> lol zax1
[04:24] <dooglus> v0lksman: "ls -l /etc/rc*.d/*gdm" - shows you which levels *S*tart or *K*ill gdm
[04:24] <dionysos_> change resultion
[04:25] <dionysos_> is it a laptop?
[04:25] <xbeanx> I installed totem-xine but now totem won't run...  I wanted to get embedded media in firefox and the wiki said I needed totem-xine.
[04:25] <zax1> ok dionysos_, so i guess since linux did it right the first time and it sucks any way i dont need any help
[04:25] <xbeanx> Is this a known problem?
[04:25] <zax1> thanks you were great help ;)
[04:25] <dionysos_> change resolution :p
[04:25] <zax1> cant
[04:25] <snoops> inFw I'm sure others are far more knowledgable on the subject, but you could try upgrading to dapper (6.06) and see how it goes
[04:25] <v0lksman> cool..thx dooglus....learnt soemthign today... :)
[04:26] <Greyscale> Question: How do I get my network computer (samba) to show up in my save-as menu?
[04:26] <Greyscale> Used to be able to in breezy...
[04:26] <v0lksman> you could install the boot-cfg in Automatix and use it to change the init level that gdm automatically starts...
[04:26] <tubbie> !java
[04:26] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[04:26] <dooglus> v0lksman: what I'm trying to work out is how to edit those links using update-rc.d - but it doesn't seem to be able to do it?
[04:26] <Concord_Dawn> inFw: No idea. I'm running the newest kernel on my 8 year old desktop.
[04:26] <zax1> how do i add the 1024,768, ability ?
[04:26] <inFw> snoops: I did. That's the problem. When I updated on reboot the new kernel gave me a kernel panic. I now can only get into ubuntu using the old kernel.
[04:26] <Concord_Dawn> And it runs fine when I dual-booted my laptop.
[04:26] <Greyscale> Question: How do I get my network computer (samba) to show up in my save-as menu?
[04:26] <Concord_Dawn> inFw: What laptop do you have?
[04:27] <inFw> Concord_Dawn a toshiba satellite m70
[04:27] <Concord_Dawn> Greyscale: Please only ask your question once. Someone will help you shortly.
[04:27] <dooglus> GaiaX11: looks like the best answer is "get package 'bum' and disable 'gdm' in level 2"
[04:27] <Greyscale> eep!
[04:27] <Greyscale> I hope so..
[04:27] <Concord_Dawn> inFw: You can look around in the wiki and see if there's been any problems recorded with it.
[04:28] <v0lksman> dooglus: is bum the Boot-Up Manager?
[04:28] <dooglus> v0lksman: yes!  :)
[04:28] <inFw> Concord_Dawn: I've been doing that but will search again just in case. Thank you. :)
[04:28] <v0lksman> dooglus:  sweet...that's what I was talking about...its available through Automatix if you want the easy way.. :)
[04:28] <tubbie> firefox crashed when trying to load a ajava applet
[04:28] <Concord_Dawn> no problem. Can't help you further. I'm not a kernel engineer.
[04:28] <dooglus> v0lksman: I'd rather not.  I've heard bad things about it.
[04:29] <v0lksman> dooglus:  yeah?  hrm....I installed it on a different machine yesterday but didn't mess with it much....
[04:29] <Greyscale> So anyone got a clue how to answer my quetion Oo?
[04:29] <dooglus> !automatix
[04:29] <dooglus> hrm.
[04:30] <dooglus> I thought ubotu had something to say about it
[04:30] <v0lksman> automatix itself isn't bad...I fuond it handy to get java and firefox to play nice....
[04:30] <v0lksman> I haven't played with bum much though
[04:30] <IB-> can anybody recommend me on a good & light-weight IDE in linux ?
[04:30] <dionysos_> hm
[04:30] <dionysos_> how can i get the new icons in the menu? :p
[04:30] <raptros-v76> Greyscale: whats your question?
[04:30] <Concord_Dawn> IB-: What's wrong with the IDE that comes with Ubuntu?
[04:30] <kdingo> IB: gedit
[04:30] <bensode> ib: light-weight ide?
[04:30] <IB-> Concord_Dawn, which is what?
[04:30] <Concord_Dawn> dionysos_: Look for a gnome menu editor.
[04:31] <IB-> i'm talking about development IDE.....
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> Oh.
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> Vim baby.
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> www.vim.org
[04:31] <dionysos_> yea
[04:31] <kdingo> vim ftw
[04:31] <dionysos_> Concord_Dawn:
[04:31] <Greyscale> Raptros: How do I get my network computer (samba) to show up in my save-as menu?
[04:31] <dionysos_> i have that...
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> and it's in the repositories.
[04:31] <dionysos_> but then?
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> dionysos_: Use it?
[04:31] <dionysos_> where do i find the new icons?
[04:31] <dionysos_> :p
[04:31] <dionysos_> cause its still the old ones
[04:31] <IB-> no vim
[04:31] <jtj> i downloaded and installed the drivers for my monitor yesterday and then the screen went completely black, as if switched off, this morning i have got a screen, but the resolution is stuck at640x840 and the refresh rate at -21213, could someone help, please
[04:31] <IB-> something i can learn fast
[04:31] <raptros-v76> Greyscale: what? wait what are you trying to do?
[04:32] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  mount the drives....
[04:32] <Greyscale> It is.
[04:32] <Greyscale> Its in my places menu
[04:32] <Greyscale> But not in my save as panel
[04:32] <v0lksman> yeah....use the mount command and mount them to /media/something
[04:32] <kdingo> IB-: it's not lightweight but if you're into java, eclipse is good
[04:32] <Greyscale> how?
[04:32] <IB-> i need for C++
[04:32] <v0lksman> its kinda a known "issue" with nautilus....I was reading about it yesterday...best bet is mount
[04:32] <IB-> i use eclipse for java
[04:32] <dionysos_> anny idees where the location is?
[04:32] <raptros-v76> IB-: use anjuta
[04:32] <dionysos_> of the new icons?
[04:33] <v0lksman> sudo mount -t smbfs //IP/share /media/something
[04:33] <IB-> ok, tnx
[04:33] <Greyscale> Thanks =3
[04:33] <Greyscale> I'll try it now
[04:34] <MrData> speaking of mount:
[04:34] <MrData> I simply want to mount a network folder. I'm using Ubuntu (Debian) Linux. The network folder is on a network with a Windows 2003 domain controller. I tried to mount, but I'm having many problems. But, I can access the drive using Nautilus (smb:// URL), I just can't mount it.
[04:34] <v0lksman> might wanna add an -o uid=<youruser> if you want to be able to write without sudo
[04:34] <MrData> sudo smbmount //awc-server-1/DOC /mnt/doc -o username=xxxxx,workgroup=xxxxx
[04:34] <MrData> cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it. 4885: protocol negotiation failed  SMB connection failed
[04:34] <jo_e> hi.  Can anyone explain why I don't have /dev/video0 when i'
[04:34] <v0lksman> MrData:  that's beyond me man... :)
[04:34] <jo_e> ve run sudo modprobe bt-8xx
[04:34] <IB-> laters
[04:34] <dionysos_> cause you don't have a webcam? :p
[04:34] <jo_e> i have a tv tuner
[04:35] <v0lksman> MrData:  I know I had to install a couple extras for Samba from a fresh Dapper install...
[04:35] <jo_e> i mean, modprove dvb-bt8xx
[04:35] <MrData> v0lksman: At least I'm getting responses. ;> On the #Samba channel(s), it's so quiet.
[04:35] <cafg10> i recently had to reinstall windoze and it overwrote grub, how can I recover it?
[04:35] <v0lksman> MrData: for example the mount command didn't know what smbfs was, so there was a package for that....and I think there was another one...can't remember exactly right now though
[04:35] <tubbie> just google the error message
[04:35] <MrData> v0lksman: I think I've installed everything, but configuration I'm not sure about. :>
[04:35] <apokryphos> cafg10: FAQ
[04:36] <snoops> cafg10 you boot into the live cd
[04:36] <Greyscale> v0lksman: 'snot working
[04:36] <snoops> chroot into your ubuntu install
[04:36] <v0lksman> I find samba is really easy on configs when you are moutnign locally...the config is more for windows machiens to see the linux mounts....
[04:36] <snoops> then reinstall grub
[04:36] <snoops> I'll get the guide..
[04:36] <Concord_Dawn> !tell cafg10 about grub
[04:36] <jtj> anyone able to help with screen resolution, please
[04:37] <apokryphos> jtj: have you read the FAQ entry on it?
[04:37] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  What's it doing?
[04:37] <Concord_Dawn> snoops: Or following the wiki page on it. :-P
[04:37] <Skorgu|Work> I was running Breezy and upgraded to Drake no problems, now Software Updates can't upgrade gdk-imlib1, apt-get dist-upgrade just says its being left back. This is only mildly annoying but can I get rid of it?
[04:37] <jtj> yeah iinstalled drivers yesterday
[04:37] <jtj> the screen went completely black
[04:37] <MrData> v0lksman: I read in the Samba docs that Samba is always a server. (confused.) I don't get it. ;> Ah, well. Thanks.
[04:37] <exxpert> ello
[04:37] <jtj> now its stuck on 640 x 840
[04:37] <apokryphos> jtj: ok, kill your X (ctrl+alt+f1 then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop) and then try to startx manually (as user)
[04:37] <jtj> sorry 640 x 480
[04:38] <apokryphos> jtj: oh, so you can get into X?
[04:38] <v0lksman> yeah....I think the terms are a little misleading....samba is the server....smbmount is a client....(mount -t smbfs is the same)....
[04:38] <apokryphos> jtj: then follow the guide on fixing your resolution.
[04:38] <sarek> hi
[04:38] <apokryphos> hello
[04:38] <Greyscale> sudo  mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.128/Group/ /media/Denshikeisanki
[04:38] <jtj> sorry i hit ctrl alt f1 and nothng happens
[04:38] <Concord_Dawn> v0lksman: Indeed. You don't need a samba client for Windows either.
[04:38] <Greyscale> Thats my command in its entireity
[04:39] <jtj> what is x
[04:39] <v0lksman> hence the samba config is for the server (IE when you want windows to see the linux box as a machine on the network with shares)...and the client access shares on remtote machiens...no config needed....
[04:39] <apokryphos> jtj: are you able to get into gnome now?
[04:39] <jtj> yeah i am now
[04:39] <apokryphos> jtj: and you just have the incorrect resolution set?
[04:39] <apokryphos> jtj: ok, then read the guide on fixing your resolution in the FAQ.
[04:39] <snoops> actually that's what I was looking for Concord_Dawn
[04:39] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  might be wrong but the trailing slash on your share name is not needed....
[04:39] <jtj> and i go the sytem/screen resolution and then i cant adjust it
[04:39] <lakcaj> Skorgu|Work: try explicitely installing the left back package with apt-get
[04:39] <sarek> has anyone of you managed to get ndiswraper to work under dapper? I had it running under 5.10 for half a year or so. But after the upgrade to dapper yesterday, ndiswrapper cannot be compiled :-(
[04:39] <Concord_Dawn> snoops: It's in ubotu's !grub
[04:40] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: You don't need to compile it.
[04:40] <Greyscale> V0lksman: still doesn't work
[04:40] <Concord_Dawn> sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[04:40] <jtj> it wont adjust
[04:40] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  error?
[04:40] <Greyscale> same error
[04:40] <Concord_Dawn> I think that the make/gcc for Dapper are broken.
[04:40] <snoops> what's the command to see all of ubotu's commands?
[04:40] <v0lksman> whcih is?
[04:40] <Greyscale> I IM'd you it
[04:40] <joebush> ericz: using that config I got cloned fullscreen with same res for some reason
[04:41] <Greyscale> Oh. PM from unregistered users are blocked.
[04:41] <sarek> Concord_Dawn, sure? I did install ndiswrapper-source and nidswrapper-utils and then used module-assistant to build the binary
[04:41] <Greyscale> matthew@Neko:~$ sudo  mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.128/Group /media/Denshikeisanki/
[04:41] <Greyscale> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.0.128/Group,
[04:41] <Greyscale>        missing codepage or other error
[04:41] <Greyscale>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[04:41] <Greyscale>        dmesg | tail  or so
[04:41] <v0lksman> hahaha...plus I'm in here not the forums... :)
[04:41] <exxpert> anyone who could help me with a problem with amsn?,, everything works ok but when i want to choose an smiley from the menu, it doesent show up in the message, the smileymenubox just disapers,, anyone has a solution or a lead to me?
[04:41] <joebush> ericz: well, I guess it's better to say that I got X running again, but no change
[04:41] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  Go into synaptic and look for smb packages...one of them adds the functionality to mount for smbfs...you are missing that piece
[04:42] <Greyscale> Oh god. Silly me XD
[04:42] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: You should be able to simply do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper.
[04:42] <Concord_Dawn> That's what I did
[04:42] <ericz> joebush: oh.. well, do you have two gfx cards?
[04:42] <v0lksman> took me a while to figure that out when I installed ubuntu too.. :)
[04:42] <ericz> joebush: or one with two outputs?
[04:42] <joebush> ericz: no. same card with 2 outputs
[04:42] <v0lksman> yeah apt wll get it too...either way... :)
[04:42] <Greyscale> XD
[04:43] <GSF> quit
[04:43] <Greyscale> V0lksman: new error!
[04:43] <sarek> Concord_Dawn, I just tried ... the package ndiswrapper cannot be found
[04:43] <Greyscale> 11555: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
[04:43] <Greyscale> SMB connection failed
[04:43] <exxpert> no one with that wierd amsnproblem here?
[04:43] <Concord_Dawn> !tell Greyscale about pastebin
[04:44] <higen> anyone having problem with the new kernel update? (i686)
[04:44] <v0lksman> Greyscale:  ok this is giong to be windows userlevel permissions I think....try adding -o username=<windowsuser>,password=<windowspasswd>,uid=<unixuser>
[04:44] <Greyscale> Its not a windows computer.
[04:44] <Greyscale> Its another ubuntu box
[04:44] <Skorgu|Work> lakcaj: That did it, thanks. I'm a gentoo guy so this apt stuff is all new to me :)
[04:44] <v0lksman> ahhh
[04:44] <v0lksman> uhm...well it would act the same....so you need to use a username and password that has perms to see the info on the remote side
[04:44] <Greyscale> Cool.
[04:45] <joebush> ericz: here is xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/710788
[04:45] <joebush> looks fine as far as I can tell
[04:45] <Greyscale> Horray for v0lksman!
[04:45] <Greyscale> it works!
[04:45] <v0lksman> got it?
[04:45] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: I think that the make and gcc versions for dapper are broken.
[04:46] <v0lksman> NICE!  :)
[04:46] <Greyscale> Thanks v0lksman =3
[04:46] <v0lksman> no probs!
[04:46] <Greyscale> ^^
[04:46] <Concord_Dawn> You might need to get the ones before.
[04:46] <v0lksman> So no FreeNX people here?
[04:46] <Greyscale> nope
[04:46] <Mastastealth> ive used freenx
[04:47] <Concord_Dawn> v0lksman: I'm looking into FreeNX, but I think I'd like VNC better.
[04:47] <MrData> v0lksman: What's the uid=<unixuser> part for re smbmount?
[04:47] <v0lksman> CD:  why?  its so slow!  :)
[04:47] <sarek> Concord_Dawn, so downgrade gcc and make?
[04:47] <exxpert> anyone using amsn in here!?
[04:47] <Mastastealth> FreeNX? SLOW?
[04:47] <Mastastealth> thats funny
[04:47] <MrData> wouldn't that be me, anyway?
[04:47] <MrData> (confused)
[04:47] <Concord_Dawn> because you can have VNC and SSH going at the same time. VNC for when I'm sitting on LAN and SSH for when I'm not :-)
[04:47] <v0lksman> masta:  nono...vnc =slow
[04:47] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: Yes.
[04:47] <cherwin> exxpert: :^)
[04:47] <sarek> hmm ok, thanks
[04:47] <Concord_Dawn> Try building it with 3.x
[04:48] <raptros-v76> Concord_Dawn: why do you think that gcc and make are broken? they work fine for me.
[04:48] <v0lksman> masta:  how do you connect to an existing session if the session wasn't created with freenx?
[04:48] <exxpert> finally cherwin
[04:48] <exxpert> :-)
[04:48] <Mastastealth> yea, i dont like vnc becuz its slow, freenx is an awesome alternative
[04:48] <exxpert> cherwin, is your smileys working ok?
[04:48] <Concord_Dawn> raptros-v76: Because, I've had compilation problems with then before.
[04:48] <Concord_Dawn> them, even.
[04:48] <sarek> raptros-v76, but can you build the ndiswrapper packages?
[04:48] <cherwin> exxpert: yes everything works fine
[04:48] <raptros-v76> Concord_Dawn: what kind of things?
[04:48] <Mastastealth> v0lksman: i dont think it is possible, i wanted to do that with a regular ssh session but had not success :(
[04:48] <kyath> does anyone know of how to get access diver working in ubuntu
[04:48] <cherwin> exxpert: did you installed the latest version?
[04:48] <Concord_Dawn> raptros-v76: Can't remember, was before I reinstalled Dapper.
[04:48] <v0lksman> man...that's a big bummer...
[04:49] <labo> I can't install gcc-3.4.6
[04:49] <v0lksman> there has to be a way though....I can't believe there isn't....
[04:49] <mystamax_> Is it possible to map a key combination to LOCK my computer???????
[04:49] <Mastastealth> v0lksman: yea, it MIGHT be possible, but I personnally don't know
[04:49] <exxpert> cherwin, i have this problem,, when i want to choose a smiley it doesent work,, but triggs with letters in msg..
[04:49] <raptros-v76> Concord_Dawn: the problem could be with something else. and if make and gcc were broken you wouldnt be compile anything
[04:49] <exxpert> cherwin, yes last vers..
[04:49] <Concord_Dawn> raptros-v76: True enough.
[04:49] <v0lksman> I know with RDP there is a couple ways to do that depending on the mode the server is running in....and this is a competitor to RDP so there has to be a way....
[04:50] <raptros-v76> Concord_Dawn: it could be the makefile was bad.
[04:50] <yccheok_> ultraedit is a rich feature and user friendly editor. does linux world has such a similar editor?
[04:50] <Concord_Dawn> What gcc and make versions does the build-essentials package install?
[04:50] <cherwin> exxpert: is this with the default skin? or with a newly installed one?
[04:50] <aalya> Can you tell me the command for active nvidia plz? (run in consol///)
[04:50] <exxpert> both..
[04:50] <yccheok_> i.e., it can build a list of function list in ur c code, where u can navigate it easily
[04:50] <rigonatti> =( someone with patiente to teach how to configure and use Wine ? I had tryed all tutorials but still getting erros =(
[04:50] <v0lksman> MrData:  sorry..missed your post....it sets the owner of the mount to your user
[04:50] <Concord_Dawn> rigonatti: err.
[04:50] <sarek> I was told by one of the ndiswrapper developers, that the package in dsapper is quite outdated and that the problems should not appear with the current version from sourceforge
[04:50] <Concord_Dawn> dude. sudo apt-get install wine
[04:50] <Concord_Dawn> tada, you have wine.
[04:51] <Mastastealth> aalya: "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[04:51] <exxpert> cherwin, thanks anyway..:-)
[04:51] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: Then grab the latest one from the sourceforge.
[04:51] <rigonatti> Concord_Dawn:   Im already installed .... but having problems starting programs :(
[04:51] <aalya> Mastastealth: Thanks
[04:51] <Concord_Dawn> rigonatti: The command is wine <path to program>
[04:51] <cherwin> exxpert: are you using the default skin?
[04:51] <sarek> Concord_Dawn, but those packages dont support building it "the debian/ubuntu way"
[04:51] <exxpert> cherwin, yes!
[04:52] <Concord_Dawn> sarek: It doesn't matter.
[04:52] <NoUse> mystamax_ Ctrl+Alt+L already does that
[04:52] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  google search for lotus notes running in wine and you should find a step by step of getting Lotus to run under wine....it should answer a lot of your questions on how wine works...
[04:52] <sarek> Concord_Dawn, I know that it doesnt matter - but I dont like it ... it kind of messes up my clean system :-)
[04:53] <mystamax_> NoUse, Thanks so much very helpful
[04:53] <rigonatti> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/710798
[04:53] <Concord_Dawn> sark: Not if you install it correctly.
[04:53] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  there is no easy answer for wine...its a tricky app....
[04:53] <cherwin> exxpert: i'm searching the FAQ but i cannot find any answers, just remove amsn and everything that belongs with it, your settings etc. then reinstall it and everything will work as aspected
[04:53] <Concord_Dawn> All a .deb is is a set of binaries with instructions on where everything goes.
[04:53] <exxpert> cherwin, i wil ltry that..
[04:53] <Concord_Dawn> Plus some other stuff.
[04:54] <exxpert> cherwin, thanks..
[04:54] <sarek> well, I'll see, thanks ... for now it seems that my card works with the rtl8180 driver quite fine
[04:54] <cherwin> exxpert: you're settings are in your $HOME/.amsn
[04:54] <sarek> I'll have to test that :-)
[04:54] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  first why PS?  why not Gimp?  second:  wine "c:\program files\adobe\photoshop\photoshop.exe"
[04:54] <tenco> nautilus doesnt recognize installed nautilus scripts, neither in /usr/share/nautilus-scripts nor in $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[04:54] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  you have to specify full windows path as it is under the .wine dir
[04:55] <rigonatti> first:   GIMP open .PS or .AI   ???   second :  I have tryed this path ... =( ....
[04:55] <tenco> has ubuntu restricted nautilus?
[04:55] <exxpert> cherwin, i will test that..
[04:55] <rigonatti> you mean c:/windows ?
[04:55] <ubuntu_> is there a way to replace the ubuntu icon in the gnome menubar?
[04:55] <higen> how can i swap between which kernel versions that are going to be default in grub?
[04:55] <Tommy2k4> i have it set to mount a networked pc on boot up but that pc isnt always on when i boot, any way to make it auto mount when its turned on or at least keep trying every few mins until it is
[04:55] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  I thoguht gimp could handle .PS....
[04:56] <rigonatti> .AI too ?
[04:56] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  you must get a second error when using c:\program path....
[04:56] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  not sure...try it...can't hurt....already installed by default in dapper
[04:56] <rigonatti> just PS :(
[04:56] <mystamax_> Is it possible to unmount a drive via Gnome? Everytime I try it states, Unable to unmount, only root can unmount.
[04:56] <rigonatti> Xasara should work
[04:56] <rigonatti> v0lksman ..hold on
[04:57] <Concord_Dawn> mystamax_: Nope. You have to be root.
[04:57] <errpast-wc> I want "vi" to launch with numbers on file lines
[04:57] <mystamax_> Concord_Dawn:  so the only way is via CLI
[04:57] <errpast-wc> :set nu
[04:57] <errpast-wc> do I create a .vimrc, and at :set nu?
[04:57] <errpast-wc> in my ~
[04:57] <Concord_Dawn> mystamax_: Or log into Gnome as root ;-) But that's highly unrecommended.
[04:58] <rigonatti> v0lksman : http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/710806
[04:58] <v0lksman> that's the same thing you sent last time
[04:58] <Malikith> mystamax_: you can actually just edit your fstab and make it user mountable and umountable
[04:58] <v0lksman> do a 'pwd' in the directory that photoshop.exe is sitting in and send that over
[04:59] <Spy> hey, is there a way to stop ubuntu from loading an autostart for all cds?
[04:59] <mystamax_> Malikith: I thought there was a way to adjust that. Are you familar w/ what you stated? Do you know the correct syntax or can you point me in the right direction
[05:00] <kenneho> Hi all, is there some easy, safe way of resizing one of my Ubuntu partitions?
[05:00] <juuva> for some reason ubuntu 6.06 freezes when trying to shutdown, it just can't deconfigure network interfaces
[05:00] <noname1024> hello. how to install gaim chat client ?
[05:00] <rigonatti> nope
[05:00] <Tommy2k4> sudo apt-get install gaim
[05:00] <Concord_Dawn> !tell mystamax_ about fstab
[05:00] <noname1024> thanks
[05:00] <Concord_Dawn> !tell kenneho about parted
[05:01] <Concord_Dawn> huzzah for dual-monitors.
[05:01] <Concord_Dawn> Funky iTunes visualizers ftw.
[05:01] <Malikith> mystamax_: Yeah I know how to do it, you will need to pop up a terminal and cd to /etc and then type sudo nano -w fstab to edit fstab , what kind of device are you trying to make unmountable, is it a removable drive or one thats sata/ide?
[05:01] <rigonatti> v0lksman : I cant figure out how do this ....even if a APP works with ADobe Files =(
[05:01] <Tommy2k4>  i have it set to mount a networked drive on boot up but that pc isnt always on when i boot, any way to make it auto mount when its turned on or at least keep trying every few mins until it is
[05:01] <Concord_Dawn> Tommy2k4: Write a crontab script for it.
[05:02] <mystamax_> Malikith: its SATA in this particular machine, I have my drive partition 4 times and  I have 2 windows based partitions that i dont want mounted
[05:02] <Concord_Dawn> !tell Tommy2k4 about crontab
[05:03] <Tommy2k4> thanks
[05:03] <Malikith> mystamax_: Do you want them mounted sometimes or never?
[05:03] <finger> So skype doesn't work properly on linux then ?
[05:03] <Subhuman> finger, does for me
[05:03] <exxpert> finger, on mine it does..
[05:03] <Concord_Dawn> !skype
[05:03] <ubotu> skype is, like, totally, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[05:03] <finger> Subhuman: do you have the skype protocol one-click links working ? ...
[05:03] <finger> or anyone else for that matter ...
[05:04] <Concord_Dawn> finger: Follow ubotu's links and you shall find.
[05:04] <mystamax_> Malikith: I have one I don't mounted @ all, and I'd like to mount the other when need be.
[05:04] <Subhuman> no, i just connect with peoples usernames.
[05:04] <finger> Concord_Dawn: I've followed, I've found, and yet I'm still searching :-(
[05:04] <Subhuman> that is a ff issue
[05:04] <Subhuman> not skype
[05:04] <finger> Subhuman: hmm ... according to them it's a linux dbus issue ...
[05:04] <Concord_Dawn> finger: You want callto:// links to work?
[05:05] <Tommy2k4> Concord_Dawn:  will it run as root or how would i make it so it doesnt ask for password every time
[05:05] <MrData> YAY! My solution was to mount as "cifs" instead of "smbfs". Apparently, smbfs doesn't do well with more recent Microsoft mounts.
[05:05] <Malikith> mystamax_: alright, well umount them both now, then edit your fstab by popping up a terminal and typing cd /etc then typing sudo nano -w fstab then you will see all your mounts on your system
[05:05] <finger> Concord_Dawn, indeed - it's very important for a web app I've been working on for longer than I'd care to mention ...
[05:05] <Concord_Dawn> Tommy2k4: I think you can edit a file to make it not ask for a password for mounting, but I can't remember the instructions.
[05:05] <v0lksman> rigonatti:  I'm not sure what you mean...
[05:06] <MrData> This took much time to research! samba.org doesn't seem to mention this big problem!
[05:06] <mystamax_> ok, May I ask what the -w switch does?
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> finger: The should work just fine. All you do is click it and Firefox should ask you "Do you want to use an external application to handle this link?" and then Skype should just use it.
[05:06] <rigonatti> I mean ....when you install Wine, its just start the winecfg chosee the APP in Aplications tab tehn type wine program ?
[05:06] <Subhuman> finger, can you not just copy + paste? itz like 5 seconds of your life.
[05:06] <Malikith> mystamax_: It doesn't do much, just disables wrapping of long lines
[05:06] <v0lksman> MrData:  I haven't had any probs mounting Win2k3 NTFS shares with smbfs...but you got a working solution... ;)
[05:07] <tenco> someone using nautilus scripts with success here?
[05:07] <tenco> in dapper
[05:07] <tenco> s/in/with
[05:07] <Concord_Dawn> tenco: Why use nautilus scripts when you can use Bash scripts?
[05:07] <mystamax_> Malikith: Cool thx
[05:07] <MrData> Searching http://www.experts-exchange.com/ eventually helped. Thanks to Google!
[05:07] <finger> Concord_Dawn: should work but doesn't ... I've associated the protocol and configured ff ... but still it won't work properly. It'll open skype but it won't dial ...
[05:07] <Subhuman> tenco, yes.

[05:07] <pidey> Hmm, I'm having a problem with wine, when I run a program in wine... NOTHING happens.  I'm sure I've installed wine, I've configured it, and I'm using the correct command to run it.
[05:08] <v0lksman> rigattoni: no...just install wine...run wincfg to setup your .wine directory then use command line to lauch your app to start with
[05:08] <tenco> Subhuman: how? i tried to install scripts via apt-get but nautilus doesnt recognize it
[05:08] <finger> Subhuman: hmm ... and what about the months of my life spent building a web app that's supposed to work seemlessly ... ?
[05:08] <finger> s/seemlessly/seamlessly/
[05:08] <kenneho> I need to free some space on my root partition (I have two partitions: / and /home). Anyone got any ideas on how to locate obsolete/unneccesary files?
[05:08] <Subhuman> tenco, you need nautlius-script-manager
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> finger: You should test out the requirements of your webapp before you build it.
[05:08] <Malikith> mystamax_: in the fstab you see your drives and stuff, all your mounts on your system, and then you see your ntfs mounts, under <options> do the ntfs ones say defaults or do they have more than just that?
[05:08] <v0lksman> rigattoni:  but when you run command line you need to specify the "windows" directory that the app is installed in....
[05:08] <Subhuman> finger, exactly.
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> kenneho: locate?
[05:08] <Subhuman> wat Concord_Dawn said*
[05:09] <mystamax_> Malikith:
[05:09] <mystamax_> Malikith: more than that
[05:09] <kenneho> I should probably resize the partition, but I'm afraid my data may be lost.
[05:09] <tenco> Subhuman: its installed
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> kenneho: Back up then resize.
[05:09] <Malikith> mystamax_: what exactly does one of them say?
[05:09] <finger> I've tested out the requirements ... and when people said that skype worked fine on dapper, I believed them ...
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> you should test it.
[05:09] <mystamax_> Malikith: ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> That way you know.
[05:09] <v0lksman> rigattoni: I know this isn't the app you are trying to install but this may clear up a few things: http://www.nsftools.com/tips/UseNotesWithWine.htm
[05:10] <tenco> Subhuman: you simply installed scripts with apt-get and it worked?
[05:10] <kenneho> Concord_Dawn: I haven't got enough DVDs/CDs to back all of it up. :(
[05:10] <MrData> v0lksman: Thanks for all of your help!
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> kenneho: That's unfortunate. I have a whole network harddrive that I can use ;-)
[05:10] <Malikith> mystamax_: Alright, add this, do this line, defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46,user
[05:10] <finger> Not the end of the world either, I personally prefer using ubuntu to windows. But my clients don't care. If linux once again proves to be incapable of handling the simple tasks that windows boxes can handle, then it's no skin off my nose frankly. Just a bit disappointed that's all ...
[05:10] <PuGz> hey guys. i was wondering if someone could help me get my new tv card to work with dapper?
[05:10] <v0lksman> MrData:  np...!
[05:10] <Scorpio[Pt] > ppl can someone take me a doubt?
[05:10] <kenneho> Concord_Dawn: You got any ideas on space-consuming, unneccesary programs/files I should consider deleting?
[05:10] <Malikith> mystamax_: Just add user at the end like that to both of them
[05:10] <PuGz> its a Yuan PD 300 mini
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> kenneho: Linux? :-P
[05:11] <pidey> Hey, I'm having a problem with running a program in wine... When I use the command line to run it (I'm sure its right command) no windows or anything pop up.  I"m sure wine is configured/downloaded/installed correctly.
[05:11] <kenneho> Concord_Dawn: :)
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> finger: Linux is much better than Windows in millions of ways. Don't knock it.
[05:11] <Subhuman> tenco, no installed nautilus-scripts-manager, then i stuck the scripts in /usr/share/nautilus-scripts then ran nautilus-scripts-manager and they were i nthe context menuy
[05:11] <Malikith> mystamax_: And what ntfs partition did you not want mounted ever, was it the main one? And do you recognize which one it is in your fstab?
[05:11] <finger> Concord_Dawn: I'm not knocking it as such ... just a bit disappointed that's all ...
[05:11] <jae686> well, anyone was able to run wipeout 2097 on ubuntu?
[05:12] <PuGz> anyone good at getting TV cards to work?
[05:12] <mystamax_> Malikith: ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1    <-- Do I add it after the numerical 1 OR add comma and then add user w/o spaces
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> finger: Well I'm quite sure it's fixable anyways. Take a look at your FFox and Shype configurations.
[05:12] <Subhuman> well finger the brilliance is if there is a problem you can whack open the linux source to fix it :D
[05:12] <mystamax_> Malikith: good question let me double check
[05:12] <GaiaX11> How do i chang that image kubuntu while booting my system?
[05:12] <Scorpio[Pt] > ipcs -m | grep "ei" |cut -f2 -d' ' | xargs ipcrm shm
[05:12] <Scorpio[Pt] >  ----> HOW do i make, to do this command delete the shared memory and semaphoro arrays to the current user instead the user ei* ???
[05:12] <v0lksman> if you know how!
[05:12] <Malikith> mystamax_: Before the 0 after gid=46 so it would be gid=46,user
[05:12] <kdingo> GaiaX11: do `sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so`
[05:12] <v0lksman> later all!
[05:13] <rigonatti> latter !
[05:13] <finger> Subhuman: hmm ... rebuilding the linux dbus is a little beyond the clients price range ... :P
[05:13] <kdingo> GaiaX11: then select one of the alternatives
[05:14] <kdingo> there is a way to get more, but i haven't done that yet
[05:15] <GaiaX11> kdingo, Many thanks
[05:15] <kenneho> Concord_Dawn: I have 1.4 GB of free space on / but Synaptic says I'm short of about 200 MB. I'm intending to upgrade to Ubuntu 6.06. Is it correct that the update require about 1.5 GB of extra space, or are my doing something wrong?
[05:15] <danilo_> there is a chanel in portuguese language?
[05:15] <kdingo> GaiaX11 no problem
[05:15] <hoss> anyone know how to get WMA working for beep on amd64?
[05:15] <Bassetts> how can i view all files in nautilus, like ls -a in nautilus
[05:15] <tenco> Subhuman: thanks, that was the missing bit :-)
[05:16] <kdingo> Bassetts: ctrl+H toggles display hidden files
[05:16] <Subhuman> anytime :)
[05:16] <Bassetts> thanks kdingo
[05:16] <Bassetts> kdingo, you just saved me soo much time, if only i knew this earlier
[05:17] <uduogah> ubuntu just works!!!
[05:17] <uduogah> hate to leave Gentoo and Slackware :-)
[05:17] <pidey> Ok, I am having a problem with getting a specific app to run in wine (other apps run just fine, and other people have reported that this app works fine in wine)
[05:18] <Malikith> uduogah: yeah Ubuntu is a fun little distro, I love it, i'd have to say the three favorite things I like about it is the look of it, the package system and the community
[05:18] <kenneho> I have 1.4 GB of free space on / but Synaptic says I'm short of about 200 MB. I'm intending to upgrade to Ubuntu 6.06. Is it correct that the update require about 1.5 GB of extra space, or are my doing something wrong?
[05:18] <richiefrich> uduogah so does gentoo and all the others
[05:19] <Sphygmos> hey.. what's the best way to install the JRE in ubuntu?
[05:19] <kdingo> pidey you searched for it in here: http://appdb.winehq.org/ ?
[05:19] <pidey> yes.
[05:19] <uduogah> yes with a bit of pain and intelligence !!
[05:19] <pidey> Its a "bronze" app
[05:19] <richiefrich> uduogah personal preference
[05:19] <pidey> More specifically, PartyPoker.
[05:19] <tenco> ok, next issue. i installed "open in terminal" extension for nautilus, but when i use it, i always get a terminal with cwd $HOME instead of the displayed directory in nautilus
[05:20] <uduogah> i love gentoo. won't leave it. ubuntu is great as a desktop
[05:20] <gostview> Hi all, I've updated my Breezy to Dapper, all goes fine, but my printer HP1020 Laserjet now cannot be detected, although it was before and work fine.
[05:20] <pidey> kdingo so any ideas? Partypoker is a "bronze" application.
[05:20] <gostview> well, actually, it was detect, but it didn't print anything!
[05:21] <gostview> any suggest?
[05:21] <NoUse> gostview have you tried removing it and reinstalling it?
[05:21] <kdingo> pidey, some other people have posted comments about their problems http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2133
[05:21] <gostview> NoUse> of course I try, nothing happend
[05:22] <kdingo> the bronze rating also seems to be for gentoo and suse, so i guess there's not much testing done for it on ubuntu
[05:22] <pidey> kdingo  it says "PartyPoker 1.2 installes without error."  when I try to wine the installer, NOTHING happens.
[05:22] <richiefrich> gostview is it usb
[05:22] <jrattner1> pidey, party poked sucks through crossover
[05:22] <mystamax_> Malikith: I don't have to map to /media/ right? I can map anywhere I have created a folder?
[05:22] <jrattner1> pidey, ahh through wine... nevermind : )
[05:22] <richiefrich> gostview can u see it  throught --> lsusb
[05:22] <gostview> NoUse>yes, hp1020 usb,  I try to install over foo2zjs, compile it and so on... still nothing.
[05:23] <richiefrich> is it still there.. usb is flaky
[05:23] <kdingo> pidey scroll down, it says it was tested in gentoo and suse
[05:23] <gostview> richiefrich> yes lsusb prompt it
[05:23] <kdingo> i don't know what to suggest.. cross fingers and hope the next update helps?
[05:23] <mystamax_> Malikith: Also, in fstab the type of one of the drives is NTFS, but in gparted it states its a FAT32
[05:23] <richiefrich> so it;s there ?
[05:23] <gavagai> How can I make my ubuntu box limit itself to a certain amount of bandwidth?  I can't do this with my router and i need a way for the ubuntu system to give itself a HARD bandwidth ceiling.
[05:23] <richiefrich> try another cable
[05:24] <pidey> kdingo hmm.  Well thats a bit of a problem if it only works in gentoo and suse.  Could you test it for me, to see if its my computer or ubuntu?
[05:24] <NoUse> gostview have you run through this guide? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HpPrinterInstallationAndMaintenanceDapper
[05:24] <kdingo> pidey, if it doesn't install on ubuntu, maybe you could install it on windows, copy it's reg keys and program files to linux and then try it?
[05:24] <acid2> Hey, anyone using PostgreSQL, I have apt-got it, but I can't work out how to create a new db. Createdb and createuser fails for both root and acid2 (my user) with "role "x" does not exist"
[05:24] <gostview> I try although to re-install dapper and it show me the printer, it made just one and ... stopped again
[05:24] <pitti> acid2: I'm the maintainer :)
[05:25] <pitti> acid2: did you already create a new user for you?
[05:25] <kdingo> pidey, k i will test the install
[05:25] <acid2> pitti: Hmm?
[05:25] <acid2> pitti: I can't create any users
[05:25] <pitti> acid2: /usr/share/doc/postgresql-common/README.Debian.gz
[05:25] <acid2> pitti: thank you :)
[05:25] <harry> how do i install the xmms in dapper drake????
[05:25] <pidey> kdingo aright, I'll try that, how do I tell what regisry keys it used in windows, and how do I open wine's artificial registry?
[05:25] <LjL> sudo aptitude install xmms
[05:25] <pitti> acid2: you should, working as the superuser 'postgres' is dangerous
[05:25] <gnomefreak> harry: sudo apt-get install xmms
[05:25] <dionysos_> sudo apt-get isntall xmms ;)
[05:26] <pidey> kdingo and thank you, my father is a bit on my case about this.
[05:26] <gostview> NoUse> no, I read many tutorial, try many way... always the same old story, it doesn't work
[05:26] <NoUse> gostview have you read this one?
[05:26] <Sphygmos> what's the best way to install the JRE in ubuntu?
[05:26] <harry> gnomefreak: not sudo apt-get install XMMS????
[05:26] <LjL> !javadeb
[05:26] <ubotu> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
[05:26] <gnomefreak> harry: sudo apt-get install xmms
[05:27] <erikh> hi folks
[05:27] <acid2> Perfect, thanks pitti !
[05:27] <NoUse> gostview I have an HP printer and this guide worked for me, so its all I can recommend
[05:27] <acid2> pitti: yea, I wanted to make a new user, but couldn't work out how :/
[05:27] <Sphygmos> what is the multiverse repo? i don't think it's in my pkg mgr
[05:27] <erikh> I have a windows machine and don't have a copy of partition magic, but would like to keep both without reinstalling
[05:27] <erikh> can I use parted to accomplish that these days?
[05:27] <Bassetts> could someone help me with newton? i created the shell script to launch it and put it in ~/.newton but when i try and launch it from the launcher i made i get "newton.sh permission denied"
[05:27] <LjL> erikh: yes, probably
[05:27] <wastrel> gparted should work
[05:27] <kdingo> pidey, if you open a terminal, do `wine PartyPokerSetup.exe' what do you see?
[05:27] <Sphygmos> i have universe repos.. but not multiverse
[05:27] <gostview> NoUse> ok, I'll read it... tnx for now
[05:27] <Neilrobau> gday folks. Trying to install 6.06, the install hangs at "installing the base system', 6%, 'retrieving alsa-utils. Any ideas pls?
[05:27] <erikh> LjL: is that a part of the installation?
[05:27] <kdingo> i get a load of permission denieds
[05:28] <kdingo> ah
[05:28] <Dybber> The network isnt working when i start ubuntu, I need to go to System -> Administration -> Network and disable it and enable it again. Thats just weird, right?
[05:28] <kdingo> my fault
[05:28] <LjL> erikh: during the installation you can modify/resize/etc partitions i think, yes. otherwise just run gparted before installing
[05:28] <pitti> acid2: so you got along with the short howto? I wrote it once for 'the impatient' :) but I don't get much feedback on it
[05:28] <erikh> LjL: awesome. thank you very much!
[05:28] <jrattner1> Anyone have experience setting up an LDAP server?
[05:28] <LjL> Neilrobau: could your CD be corrupted?
[05:28] <pidey> kdingo: no windows pop up, and I am given a new line on the terminal thingy
[05:29] <Lorroya> dsfjifdjajsf
[05:29] <Lorroya> hi helie how are you doing
[05:29] <Neilrobau> I ran the checksum check. That was ok. Shouldnt that eliminate CD probs?
[05:29] <LjL> Neilrobau: yes
[05:30] <Spy> hey whats the easiest way of installign wine?
[05:30] <LjL> sudo aptitude install wine
[05:30] <a_l_e> after an emergency shutdown i'm fsck'ing the disk... it asks "Clone multiply-claimed blocks<y>?" ... yes or no? what's the issue?
[05:30] <LjL> Neilrobau: i don't know, perhaps try with the alternate CD?
[05:30] <acid2> pitti: yup, did exactly what it said, worked a charm
[05:30] <Neilrobau> Could run it again i guess. I tried putting DEBUG=5 on, but no more detail
[05:30] <orbin> Spy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine
[05:31] <megaman123> hi all .. if i chmod -R a direcorty..how can i reverse it ??
[05:31] <kdingo> pidey mmy wine setup is fucked
[05:31] <wastrel> megaman123:  manually for each individual file
[05:31] <Neilrobau> ty LjL, i'll try that
[05:31] <pidey> kdingo: so it didn't work for you either?
[05:31] <gostview> richiefrich> you makes me grow a doubt, the only thing I didn't try is try another cable!!
[05:31] <visham> hi ppl!!
[05:32] <orbin> megaman123: with great difficulty
[05:32] <visham> lots of nicks in dis channel ha!!
[05:32] <richiefrich> gostview the cables are poorly made
[05:32] <LjL> Neilrobau: it's quite a weak suggestion, though. but i just can't think of a better one
[05:32] <megaman123> wastrel: no other way :(
[05:32] <megaman123> its easier to reinstall :)
[05:32] <Neilrobau> no worries LjL
[05:32] <jrattner1> megaman123, why dont you chmod -R it back to what it was?
[05:32] <orbin> visham: only two: incos and nickrud :P
[05:32] <wastrel> megaman123:  depending on the directory, yes it would be easier to reinstall
[05:33] <orbin> s/incos/nicos
[05:33] <Malikith> mystamax_: Yeah you can mount any drive anywhere as long as there is a directory there in place for it to put all its contents into
[05:33] <gostview> richiefrich> in effect, last time it works and after a while it stopped.... mmmhh!!
[05:33] <kdingo> pidey, i think i just installed wine wrong.. i get perm denied errors just using regedit
[05:33] <megaman123> its the var dir :(
[05:33] <Bassetts> could someone help me with newton? i created the shell script to launch it and put it in ~/.newton but when i try and launch it from the launcher i made i get "newton.sh permission denied"
[05:33] <pidey> kdingo: well thank you for trying to help, I'll figure out something...
[05:33] <Dreamglider> how can i see what ip adress eth0 has ?
[05:34] <mooey> hi, can someone recommend a tool that i can use to search for a string of text in a bunch of files (gui)?
[05:34] <pwuertz> Dreamglider, ifconfig
[05:34] <knight488> am I the only one haing problems connecting to the wine repository?
[05:34] <richiefrich> gostview i'd try to things
[05:34] <richiefrich> gostview  new port and a new cable
[05:34] <pwuertz> mooey, grep is best for that job
[05:35] <Dreamglider> pwuertz,  that does not show the ip
[05:35] <tobberoth> I'm sitting here on Kubuntu (downloaded kubuntu-desktop for ubuntu) and noticed, mp3 is the only working sound!
[05:35] <LjL> mooey: apt-cache show sagasu
[05:35] <gostview> richiefrich> new port yet tried, new cable ... go to buy one new right now
[05:35] <mooey> pwuertz: its for dumb users :) dosen't matter, gnome find does it
[05:35] <mooey> LjL: thanks
[05:35] <tobberoth> For example Kopete doesn't sound
[05:35] <pwuertz> Dreamglider, then eth0 is not active or does not have an ip

[05:37] <LjL> oh wow
[05:37] <wastrel> harry_:  /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:37] <LjL> my computer thinks it's 14/6 rather than 15/6, wonderful
[05:38] <LjL> now why it would think that is beyond me
[05:38] <harry_> wastrel: is it possible to perform an upgrades using only CD's
[05:38] <gostview> richiefrich> yes, I tried with a new PCI slot which I bought for the test
[05:38] <richiefrich> ok
[05:38] <richiefrich> some ppl dont know that
[05:39] <richiefrich> 2 to a usb port
[05:39] <wastrel> harry_:  i don't know
[05:39] <harry_> wastrel: coz i was planning to burn it on a CD. i dont want to always use the net everytime i have to reformat my computer
[05:40] <gostview> richiefrich> so, what port have I try? maybe those motherboard integrated?
[05:40] <knight488> does anyone have some experiance setting up WLAN on laptops?
[05:41] <harry_> when using dapper i dont need to change the sources.list right????
[05:41] <Bassetts> woops, helps if i make the .sh executable
[05:41] <qmf> hey guys, is there a package of the ubuntu logo's avaiable for download?
[05:41] <ubuntu> #orsitaliani
[05:42] <LjL> harry_: you don't *need* to change it, but you might *want* to
[05:42] <harry_> LjL: why is that???
[05:42] <LjL> harry_: uh, to add new repositories.
[05:42] <LjL> !universe
[05:42] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource.
[05:42] <mooey> qmf: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official
[05:44] <harry_> ubotu: but this one is for 6.04?
[05:44] <ubotu> I think you lost me on that one, harry_
[05:44] <LjL> harry_: ubotu is a bot
[05:44] <colin2ireland> Ignite
[05:44] <Ignite> ?
[05:44] <colin2ireland> im scared
[05:44] <Ignite> why?
[05:44] <colin2ireland> just joking
[05:44] <colin2ireland> XD
[05:44] <LjL> harry_: the instruction might be for Breezy, but they work perfectly for Dapper if you just change "breezy" into "dapper" in the files you edit
[05:44] <jrattner> Anyone ever seen this: http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/
[05:45] <Ignite> jrattner, yeah i played with that
[05:45] <rigonatti> Does anyone how to recever the Taks Manager (besides the clock) on Panel ? =(
[05:45] <jrattner> haha thats neat
[05:45] <colin2ireland> as a linux virgin myself, what would you recommend?
[05:45] <colin2ireland> ubuntu?
[05:45] <Ignite> <3 ubuntu
[05:45] <Ignite> colin2ireland, yes
[05:45] <Ignite> :P
[05:45] <harry_> LjL: i dont get it if you just change "breezy" into "dapper" in the files you edit
[05:46] <jrattner> Anyone ever set up an LDAP server before?
[05:46] <Ignite> harry_, if you mean /etc/apt/sources.list then after you do that you have to do "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[05:46] <gavagai> i give up... time to just blow $125 on a router that can do what i need
[05:46] <Ignite> colin2ireland, http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/
[05:47] <LjL> harry_: those links that Ubotu give tell you how to add the Universe and Multiverse repositories to your sources.list. Some of those links might be for Breezy, so they probably mention "breezy" somewhere in the sources.list. If you change instances of "breezy" into "dapper" in the sources.list, it will work for Dapper too
[05:47] <rigonatti> Does anyone how to recever the Taks Manager (besides the clock) on Panel ? =(

[05:50] <orbin> rigonatti: right-click > add to panel
[05:50] <colin2ireland> is it old?>
[05:50] <harry_> Ignite: the one that we use to when you edit somethin that you dont want to appear on the menu list. Sivik
[05:51] <Ignite> colin2ireland, i think its actively developed
[05:51] <rigonatti> orbin:  hen ? what option?
[05:51] <harry_> Ignite: dapper

[05:52] <bobjones_> hi all, i have a fresh ubuntu install that wont read any dvd-r's not even the one i installed ubuntu with or ones burned in ubuntu via k3b, can anyone help me?
[05:52] <harry_> Sivik: the one that you can see in system tools???
[05:52] <Sivik> harry_, you can go into that file and just comment (put a # at the beginning) to not see it
[05:52] <orbin> rigonatti: right-click on an empty space on the top panel > add to panel
[05:52] <richiefrich> gostview if u tried other ones then try a cable
[05:52] <Sivik> harry_: not that i know of
[05:53] <richiefrich> gostview  sorry i was yelling at someone
[05:53] <rigonatti> orbin: sorry ..i found it =/
[05:53] <Crescendo> I've installed Ubuntu on an iMac, but since it uses EFI, I can't figure out how to make it automatically restore power after an outage.  How would I go about doing this?
[05:53] <orbin> rigonatti: you can filter the applets. e.g type not and it makes it easier to find it
[05:53] <Crescendo> Second question:  How do I install VMware Server or Workstation on Ubuntu?  Player doesn't have the options I need.
[05:53] <orbin> Sphygmos: w/ wine maybe
[05:54] <harry_> Ignite: yeah the gui menu editor.... applications----> system tools-------> then choose application menu editor. i dont have that right now after upgrading from breezy to dapper right now
[05:54] <harry_> Ignite: i had it before

[05:55] <orbin> Some_Person: i've used it...wouldn't say familiar
[05:55] <Ignite> harry_, if i remember correctly its now in "Accessiories" under "Menu Editor" if not then open up Synaptic "Applications -> Add/Remove Software" or something like that
[05:55] <Some_Person> I'm trying to use it, but it hangs on "Sending Password"
[05:55] <orpheus> does anybody know what might be running only on first boot that might overwrite the xorg.conf?
[05:55] <Some_Person> I can, however, connect by typing "wvdial" in terminal
[05:56] <bobjones_> anyone help having problems reading burned dvds in ubuntu?
[05:56] <nerdzyboy> Could anyone tell me how to make ubuntu share internet (on a machine that has 3 network cards), I would want it to work like a router...
[05:56] <orbin> Some_Person: installed it via repos?
[05:56] <harry_> Ignite: tnx the name just changed.. its the alacarte called now

[05:57] <orbin> Some_Person: sure it hangs?  maybe it's just authenticating
[05:57] <Some_Person> orbin: but i didn't install wvdial thru repos (i used dpkg and a deb file because i had no internet in ubuntu)
[05:57] <nerdzyboy> thanks
[05:58] <Some_Person> i let it go for an hour
[05:58] <orbin> Some_Person: wvdial's actually on the install cd.
[05:58] <Some_Person> i didnt know that
[05:58] <orbin> Some_Person: heh, that's long enough...try running it in terminal to see for errors
[05:58] <Some_Person> running gnome-ppp?
[05:58] <orbin> yep
[05:58] <Some_Person> ok
[05:58] <Some_Person> i'll have to disconnet first
[05:58] <rigonatti> orbin: I need to restart the system to make efects
[05:59] <nerdzyboy> But how would I add firewall and oter features commonly found in routers?
[06:00] <NoUse> nerdzyboy install firstarter, its a GUI frontend to the firewall built into Ubuntu
[06:00] <ron_o> does ubuntu use some kind of swap file?
[06:01] <NoUse> ron_o swap partition
[06:01] <mjr> a swap partition, by default
[06:01] <knight488> anyone have experiance with setting up WLAN on a laptop?
[06:01] <ron_o> why do I have a file called: hts-nohup.out
[06:01] <ron_o> in vim it says it's a swap file.

[06:04] <faracha> anyone has a solution for Network connection between windows system and Ubuntu breezy badger, i use samba, but still i have alot of conection problems, sometimes i just cant find the windows system...
[06:04] <redskull> how can update time
[06:04] <orbin> stupid question: it's just a frontend to iptables right?  does that mean we're no less protected w/ it closed than w/ it open?
[06:04] <NoUse> ron_o probably a dump of a crashed progrma or something
[06:04] <redskull> how can update time
[06:04] <redskull> ????
[06:04] <Crescendo> I've installed Ubuntu on an iMac, but since it uses EFI, I can't figure out how to make it automatically restore power after an outage.  How would I go about doing this?
[06:04] <Some_Person> There were no errors
[06:05] <Cin> orbin, there's not much to protect, Ubuntu is a tight system as it is.
[06:05] <Some_Person> I did see my password pop up in the terminal
[06:05] <knight488> has anyone sucessfuly used ndiswrapper?
[06:05] <Some_Person> it was on a line
[06:05] <ron_o_> I hope I didn't miss an answer to my question..
[06:05] <NoUse> redskull via the clock in the upper right corner
[06:05] <ron_o_> I don't know how I lost xchat.
[06:05] <Some_Person> i tried pressing enter in the terminal to enter that line
[06:05] <Some_Person> but that also failed
[06:05] <jag_> hi! is there anyway to get rid of all settings in ubuntu? like a after a fresh install of ubuntu but without having to install with the cd?
[06:06] <Some_Person> any ideas?
[06:06] <NoUse> ron_o_ its probably just a dump from a crashed program or something
[06:06] <redskull> HOW CAN I APDATE TIME

[06:06] <ron_o_> it shows many URLs..
[06:06] <NoUse> redskull I just told you, via the clock in the upper right ronder

[06:07] <orbin> Some_Person: not reall, sorry.
[06:07] <harry_> does anyone here how to put easy install on ubuntu???

[06:07] <faracha> system -> one of those drop menus

[06:12] <faracha> Does anyone in ehre have a good dolution for Win/Ubuntu network?
[06:12] <[NP] Tangent> yes, it's a serial connection
[06:12] <faracha> solution*
[06:12] <[NP] Tangent> uses the same cables a printer would
[06:12] <jtj> NoUse ok thanks any reason you could think of why it wont work? or what i could check?
[06:12] <LjL> faracha: ethernet :)
[06:12] <faracha> lol
[06:13] <orbin> [NP] Tangent: should be fine...i think i have the same one..black w/ red writing right?
[06:13] <NoUse> jtj by default it prompts you to allow the incoming connection, that might be one thing, just make sure it has port 5900 open
[06:13] <harry_> orbin:: what command. i dont see anything
[06:13] <mheath> [NP] Tangent, Then yes, it will almost definately work. (BTW, not the same cable as a printer, which uses parallel. One variant of serial uses a parallel like cable)
[06:13] <Crescendo> I've installed Ubuntu on an iMac, but since it uses EFI, I can't figure out how to make it automatically restore power after an outage.  How would I go about doing this?

[06:13] <tony_> Hi all! I need  some clarification: why do i need xgl/compiz beside eyecandy - does it increase performance of x?
[06:13] <faracha> I mean, what do you use? Samba?
[06:14] <orbin> tony_: i'd say decrease :)
[06:14] <faracha> I told vbefore
[06:14] <NoUse> faracha samba is pretty much your only option as its the only protocol windows supports easily out of the box
[06:14] <faracha> Want conection between windows and Ubuntu system, but I get many problems using samba
[06:14] <tony_> orbin, do i need it for 3ddesktop?
[06:14] <ping> hi, I'm having problems with ubuntu since the update yesterday now on my laptop
[06:14] <cherwin> faracha: linux/windows networking == samba
[06:14] <faracha> ok then its clear
[06:14] <faracha> Windows just sucks...
[06:14] <tony_> orbin, why do i need it?
[06:14] <Concord_Dawn> faracha: Samba is pretty much the ONLY option you have to get Windows and Linux to share.
[06:14] <orbin> tony_: eyecandy
[06:14] <Concord_Dawn> faracha: So very try.
[06:15] <ping> its nvidia based, but the update was something about gd yesterday
[06:15] <orbin> tony_: not really a need issue, it's a want issue

[06:16] <harry_> orbin: still nothing i just get this error error: /usr/include/python2.4/pyconfig.h: No such file or directory
[06:16] <Some_Person> I cant get gnome ppp to work
[06:16] <ping> is there a channel for help on ubuntu breakage?
[06:16] <harry_> orbin: still nothing i just get this error error: /usr/include/python2.4/pyconfig.h: No such file or directory if im using the easyinstall process
[06:16] <Crescendo> Songster51: sudo apt-get install xorg
[06:16] <McNutella> whats the help chanel on this server ?
[06:16] <orbin> harry_: which dev package did you install?
[06:16] <cherwin> faracha: you can also use ftp :)
[06:16] <gavagai> Songster52, server has no GUI.  do you want kde or gnome?
[06:16] <orbin> McNutella: you're in it
[06:16] <pernambuco> 7j kubuntu-es
[06:17] <Crescendo> Songster52:  Server doesn't have GUI...
[06:17] <[NP] Tangent> it's plugged into my parallel port, mheath
[06:17] <LjL> Songster52: you're a newbie and you run the server edition? perhaps that's not the best choice. what do you mean "get the server started"? to get kde or gnome, you might want to install ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop
[06:17] <harry_> orbin: python-dev
[06:17] <McNutella> orbin,  I mean the help channel for the server.. as in freenode help stuff ?
[06:17] <harry_> orbin: i just used the command sudo apt-get install python-dev
[06:17] <orbin> harry_: see if grabbin python2.4-dev does anything
[06:17] <ping> lol, what kind of idiot uses a gui for a server ? :P
[06:17] <faracha> yeah, if its the only thing left...
[06:17] <Songster52> either, I guess.. I have no experience wit KDE.. and limited in gnome
[06:17] <orbin> McNutella: #freenode :P
[06:17] <faracha> ftp is to slow for 1 gb
[06:17] <Some_Person> I cant get gnome ppp to work
[06:17] <gavagai> nobody said he was going to use it as an actual server so please don't call him an idiot
[06:17] <McNutella> orbin,  I shoudl hope so :
[06:17] <McNutella> :P
[06:17] <Crescendo> I've installed Ubuntu on an iMac, but since it uses EFI, I can't figure out how to make it automatically restore power after an outage.  How would I go about doing this?
[06:18] <harry_> orbin: nope they say its already the newest version
[06:18] <gavagai> Songster52, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:18] <orbin> McNutella: i think they kick you to freenode-social though and you get muted
[06:18] <Songster52> this one is at work... we are wanting to get it up as a NFS
[06:18] <Crescendo> What is the APT package name for VMware server?
[06:18] <Some_Person> I cant get gnome ppp to work
[06:18] <cherwin> faracha: no it's not...
[06:18] <McNutella> orbin,  that makes sense aye
[06:18] <LjL> Crescendo: there is none
[06:18] <orbin> McNutella: type: /stats p in your irc client and you get the "oncall staff"
[06:18] <Ng> Crescendo: the only vmware packages provided by ubuntu relate to vmware-player
[06:18] <chab7> hi
[06:19] <rigonatti> anyone knows well the Wine ?
[06:19] <Crescendo> Yarrrr.
[06:19] <LjL> !anyone
[06:19] <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] <Crescendo> That's quite annoying.
[06:19] <orbin> harry_: try the ez_setup method: http://www.turbogears.org/download/nix.html#ezsetup
[06:19] <bartman_> Hi! I'm having problems accessing my USB flash disk / MP3 player. Up until i upgraded to dapper the system automatically mounted it and I could see a link to it on the desktop and in the places bar. Now I can't find these links anywhere!
[06:19] <ping> Dpes anyone know why updates break ubuntu? ;)
[06:19] <NoUse> Crescendo its not that hard to install
[06:19] <NoUse> !tell Crescendo about vmware
[06:19] <LjL> Crescendo: ubuntu generally doesn't provide packages for closed-source programs, even though it does in some cases
[06:19] <Songster52> Thanks for the info... I will try the desktop one and then possibly DL the gnome and try and install
[06:19] <Some_Person> Does anyone know how to get gnome ppp to work on breezy?
[06:20] <ProN00b> anyone got a clue why i always have this iptables rule set after reboot ?
[06:20] <cherwin> thanks ubotu :^)
[06:20] <ProN00b> target     prot opt source               destination

[06:20] <Crescendo> VMware server is now open source, though.
[06:20] <Crescendo> Has been for about three months.
[06:20] <jorgp> is there a way to find out what repos a package is in, like sun-java5-jdk
[06:20] <Crescendo> Thanks, NoUse
[06:20] <ping> Crescendo: its not opensource
[06:20] <LjL> Crescendo: it's free, but it was most definitely not open source last i heard
[06:20] <zenit> Hmm.. is it? Thought it was just free but not open source.
[06:20] <jorgp> universe, multiverse, etc..
[06:20] <ping> and btw, only the BETA is free
[06:20] <Some_Person> Does anyone know how to get gnome ppp to work on breezy?
[06:20] <ping> once it becomes release, it won't be free anymore ;)
[06:20] <LjL> ping: though they do state that the server edition will keep being free
[06:21] <zenit> ping: not what I've heard.
[06:21] <Bazzi> VMware *did* open up some of the formats used at least (virtual HD format)
[06:21] <ping> zenit: what page are you looking at, I was reading the server beta product
[06:21] <ping> Bazzi: a good thing. However qemu does very wel already :) for free
[06:21] <Some_Person> Does anyone know how to get gnome ppp to work on breezy?
[06:21] <jtj> ok i found some netstat instruction which i typed and it says tht 5900 as a local address LISTEn so does that mean it should be found by ultravnc on my windows machine
[06:22] <zenit> ping: they stated it quite clearly that it will remain free. Don't have the link though, might have been in the forums.
[06:22] <ping> There was an update yesterday, what was it?
[06:22] <NoUse> Bazzi yeah but you can't redistribute the software so Ubuntu can't put it in apt
[06:22] <Bazzi> ping: I'm using VMWare now because it's the most sophisticated crossplatform vm solution atm :)
[06:22] <ping> Bazzi: qemu works on windows, linux, mac, and BSD.
[06:23] <jae686> is VMware viable for games?
[06:23] <hollowlife1987> no
[06:23] <Bazzi> NoUse: no biggie, vmware works pretty well even unpackaged for me
[06:23] <ping> with the kqemu working on all as well ;)
[06:23] <[NP] Tangent> mheath? you there? It won't autodetect the modem. What port should it be set to? The modem is plugged into the parallel (printer) port.
[06:23] <LjL> jae686: no 3d acceleration (well, a very experimental one) ,so no
[06:23] <Some_Person> there is always the *cough*unofficial*cough*non-free*cough*repos*cough
[06:23] <Ng> jtj: if the Local address is listed as *:5900 then yes, other machines should be able to connect to it
[06:23] <harry_> orbin: its still the same error
[06:23] <Bazzi> ping: yeah true, and pretty good as well, but I still like VMware over it.
[06:23] <harry_> orbin: their method doesnt work
[06:23] <ping> Bazzi: :)
[06:23] <jtj> yeah it is, wonder what else i could try
[06:24] <jae686> i see. i was looking forward do play wipeout 2097 on my ubuntu box, but i dont see it hapening
[06:24] <Ng> jtj: can you ping your ubuntu box from the other machine?
[06:24] <Some_Person> Does anyone know how to get gnome ppp to work on breezy?
[06:24] <LjL> jae686: cedega perhaps?
[06:24] <jtj> yeah
[06:24] <samuel> sup all
[06:24] <jtj> i mean yes i tried a nd i could, sec ill try again
[06:24] <ping> *sigh*
[06:24] <[NP] Tangent> orbin, you said you have a USR modem... is it external... and if so, is it hooked up to the parallel port?
[06:24] <Some_Person> lol, my real name is samuel
[06:24] <ping> I need to know what package was updated yesterday
[06:24] <NoUse> jtj can you telnet to port 5900 from the other machine?
[06:24] <ping> to fix my system
[06:24] <jae686> on cedega it does to go past the resolution selection window
[06:24] <Some_Person> Does anyone know how to get gnome ppp to work on breezy?
[06:24] <zenit> ping: "VMware Server will continue to be a free virtualization product when it becomes generally available." From the forums.
[06:25] <Ng> jtj: I guess the next step would be to grab the vanilla vnc client and try connecting with that
[06:25] <ping> zenit: from the forums.. hmm
[06:25] <Fitzsimmons> why doesn't the spell checker in openoffice work?
[06:25] <samuel> Some_Person, what a coincidence! MY real name is Some_Person!
[06:25] <knight488> does anyone know how to fix a "glxgears: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" error?
[06:25] <[NP] Tangent> alright, I found another cable
[06:25] <Fitzsimmons> it doesn't find any errors when there clearly are some
[06:25] <Fitzsimmons> and openoffice claims that it is enabled
[06:25] <Some_Person> samuel: no one is actually named Some_Person
[06:25] <samuel> anyone know if ubuntu has /var/spool/mail/username exists by default in ubuntu? do i need to install something?
[06:25] <LjL> ping: it's in the FAQ too
[06:26] <jtj> yeah ping works fine
[06:26] <Crescendo> I've installed Ubuntu on an iMac, but since it uses EFI, I can't figure out how to make it automatically restore power after an outage.  How would I go about doing this?
[06:27] <LordSigurd> hahahaha, omg i was here to post about my sound issue, and i frekking fixed it wile setting up the IRC..... lol
[06:27] <bartman_> How can I mount a USB flash disk?  It mounted automatically in Breezy and even displayed a Desktop link but in Dapper it's a no show
[06:27] <hollowlife1987> Crescendo: it would have to do with the hardware it self not Ubuntu
[06:27] <knight488> now if I could only fix my graphicsproblem by installing WoW...
[06:27] <LordSigurd> have the same problem whit my BlueThoot Keyboard n mouse
[06:27] <nickrud> samuel,  yes it does, but it's a symlink to /var/mail
[06:27] <[NP] Tangent> sweet!
[06:28] <[NP] Tangent> my modem works now!
[06:28] <LordSigurd> ^^
[06:28] <LjL> Crescendo: perhaps try apt-cache search efi | grep EFI
[06:28] <[NP] Tangent> thank you to mheath and orbin... mheath especially for telling me the cables weren't the same
[06:28] <knight488> anyone up to an opengl problem?
[06:29] <wastrel> state your problem
[06:29] <knight488> glxgears: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[06:30] <knight488> just tried to install the ati linux drivers off their website to get open gl working
[06:30] <knight488> now when I try to do glxgears it's giving me that
[06:30] <wastrel> i thought there was an ati tutorial on the wiki

[06:31] <elephanthunter> Arg
[06:31] <elephanthunter> I'm having problems with sound on linux
[06:31] <charles> can someone tell me how to remove the ubuntu disclamer for the shell\terminal login. And as well as that I want to know is anyone knows to make my laptop turn off properly at the moment when i shutdown i get a black screen and i need to pull the battery out (the hardware is all intel)
[06:31] <Blissex> knight488: you should remove the original ATI drivers and use the Ubuntu packaged ones as LjL indicated...
[06:31] <LjL> charles: edit /etc/motd i suppose
[06:32] <jtj> anyone got any ideas i could try to get ultravnc to see a "remote desktop" enabled ubuntu
[06:32] <knight488> hm alright, will try it out... thanks...
[06:32] <Blissex> charles: or '/etc/issue' and check out if any '/etc/init.d/' script generates their content
[06:32] <ping> holy crap
[06:32] <ping> what was the update from yesterday :( *grr*
[06:32] <LjL> knight488: and please remeber that you should *always* try official packages if there are any, first, before installing stuff from external sites
[06:32] <ping> it broke all my computers from booting
[06:32] <ping> all nvidia based
[06:33] <ping> and dual screen
[06:33] <Blissex> ping: don't mention GNOME by its description!
[06:33] <charles> thanks i have not had time to check them out but that lokos like it will work nice do you guys know about my laptop power issue?
[06:33] <LjL> charles: don't have a laptop, sorry
[06:33] <ping> Blissex: it was a update for GNOME, yes :)
[06:33] <ping> well
[06:33] <ping> it was used by gnome
[06:33] <Blissex> charles: it is all about luck. Powering off requires a lot of complicated things...
[06:33] <samuel> nickrud, ubuntu does not have a mail delivery daemon installed by default does it? i just installed exim... is that the recommended mailer?
[06:33] <ping> but its used by many other programs as well
[06:34] <wastrel> postfix is the default i think samuel
[06:34] <jrattner> samuel, doesnt it come with procmail
[06:34] <ping> hmm
[06:34] <nickrud> samuel, I like that one, because there's almost no config needed. Others like postfix
[06:34] <ping> maybe it was gdm :)
[06:34] <Blissex> samuel: but 'exim' is pretty good/flexible, so keep it.
[06:34] <ping> I don't see why its broken now
[06:34] <wastrel> exceem
[06:34] <ping> it starts 2 Xorg servers
[06:34] <Blissex> ping: GDM is more like ''unholy crap'' :-)
[06:34] <Seveas> Blissex, quit it or leave.
[06:35] <Seveas> this is not the place for desktop wars
[06:35] <aero> hi...how can i install xfce without internet?
[06:35] <TrioTorus> What is the policy on setting $PATH? Where to set it?
[06:35] <Blissex> ping: GDM is an X display manager -- it starts as many X servers as you tell it...
[06:35] <Seveas> aero, convince someone to download and burn the ubuntu iso for you
[06:35] <ping> Blissex: it just happens to crash before the second instance ;)(
[06:35] <Blissex> aero: you register your install CD with 'apt-cdrom' and then onwards.
[06:36] <LjL> Seveas, aero: i suppose you mean the *x*ubuntu iso
[06:36] <Seveas> TrioTorus, global setting: /etc/environment, per-user setting ~/.bashrc (or ~/.cshrc or whatevre)
[06:36] <Blissex> ping: then it is buggy and you wait for a fix...
[06:36] <aero> can i instal from a tarball?
[06:36] <Seveas> LjL, my x is failing sometimes (honest!)
[06:36] <TrioTorus> Seveas: I tried /etc/environment, but I'm loosing the setting when I log into X
[06:36] <Blissex> ping: also, it is usually helpful to say exactly how it fails...
[06:37] <Blissex> aero: yes, if you unpack the tarball.
[06:37] <TrioTorus> Seveas: I want true global PATH settings
[06:37] <Seveas> TrioTorus, are you on breezy?
[06:37] <TrioTorus> Seveas: Dapper
[06:37] <ping> Blissex: i'm not sure how its failing :) I see 2 instances of Xorg in ps aux ;) and top says one of them is taking 99% CPU
[06:37] <aero> or i need a special package for Ubuntu Breezy?
[06:37] <LjL> Seveas: perhaps you type "xxx" too many times on google
[06:37] <elephanthunter> What's the command to change the sound device?
[06:37] <Blissex> TrioTorus: there is only one way to do true global PATH settings and you don't want to know how.
[06:37] <harry_> how do you unzip this file setuptools-0.6a11-py2.4.egg
[06:37] <Seveas> TrioTorus, and did you restart X after editing /etc/environment?
[06:37] <TrioTorus> Seveas: I did
[06:37] <Blissex> elephanthunter: you cannot.
[06:37] <harry_> how do you unzip this file setuptools-0.6a11-py2.4.egg
[06:37] <ping> thank the gods my other machines sync to a central repos :) I trust nobody for a good reason
[06:37] <jtj> no? no ideas re vnc? Ok i have a weird screen: on right hand side there is a 1" black border and a half inch one along the bottom. it's as thoguh i need to centre the working screen, any ideas?
[06:37] <Seveas> Blissex, nonsense
[06:38] <harry_> how do you unzip this file "setuptools-0.6a11-py2.4.egg"
[06:38] <elephanthunter> ??
[06:38] <Seveas> elephanthunter, alsaconf or look in the system  preferences menu
[06:38] <LjL> .egg?
[06:38] <Seveas> harry_, you throw it away
[06:38] <aero> ok, thankyou
[06:38] <TrioTorus> Seveas: do I reallo don't want to know how? I survived gentoo. Is that a mark?
[06:38] <tsume__> Blissex: I'm actually converting the company I work for to ubuntu ;) its great.
[06:38] <harry_> Seveas: throw it away???
[06:38] <Seveas> harry_, and you install the python-dev package from synaptic
[06:38] <magenet> does anyone know where to obtain " What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[06:38] <magenet> kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] 
[06:38] <magenet>  " this? im trying to install vmware player
[06:38] <Blissex> aero: you need to unpack the tarball, and then set up the resulting directory as an APT repository and then register it with APT by adding a suitable path to 'sources.list'
[06:38] <LjL> aero: i don't think you can install from a tarball easily. perhaps you could try debian rather than ubuntu, since it can be installed from floppies (or at least it could last time i tried). with ubuntu, you really do need a CD
[06:39] <Locke_> tsume__: i'm converting my boss and roommate too it
[06:39] <Locke_> to it even
[06:39] <Seveas> magenet, throw out whatever you downloaded
[06:39] <Blissex> tsume__: it is pretty well done indeed.
[06:39] <nickrud> magenet, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[06:39] <Seveas> magenet, and install vmware-player from the ubuntu repos
[06:39] <magenet> ok
[06:39] <Sivik> tsume__, good job
[06:39] <aero> ok, thanyou
[06:39] <Blissex> tsume__: I don't like a few details, but they are a bit technical.
[06:39] <elephanthunter> aplay -l shows me two nvidia devices
[06:39] <nickrud> Seveas, you're right on top of things, again :)
[06:39] <bartmon> Hi!
[06:39] <CountDown> How can I find out in which repository a package is located?  In particular, I'm interested in doxygen.
[06:40] <Seveas> !info doxygen dapper
[06:40] <Locke_> alright well i gotta put on a tie and get to work
[06:40] <ubotu> doxygen: (Documentation system for C, C++, Java, Python and other languages), section devel, is optional. Version: 1.4.6-2ubuntu1 (dapper), Packaged size: 1221 kB, Installed size: 3484 kB
[06:40] <LjL> CountDown: apt-cache show <packagename>
[06:40] <Blissex> aero: having a local directory as an APT repo is a good idea anyhow to put in it stay '.deb's and those you build yourself.
[06:40] <tsume__> Blissex: we have a couple proprietary programs, but we bought 50 "open" licenses of XP. its a non profit, so anything which won't run on linux, they use qemu :)
[06:40] <Seveas> CountDown, it's in main
[06:40] <Blissex> tsume__: ahhhhh clever trick. Also consider Wine of course, it works surprisingly well after 10 years of devel...
[06:40] <Seveas> CountDown, for future reference: apt-cache policy $packagename
[06:41] <bartmon> I'm having problems with Dapper not automounting my usb flash disk. In breezy even a link to the device appeared on the desktop but now it's a no show.
[06:41] <tsume__> suspend/resume in qemu works nicely
[06:41] <Blissex> tsume__: you are too fussy :-).
[06:41] <tsume__> Blissex: yeah, I tried. but it can't run Access 2002 runtime based apps ;)
[06:41] <ubuntu> iemand die nederlands klapt?
[06:41] <jtj> anyone got any suggestions for a black border on the right and bottom of a screen, please?
[06:41] <Seveas> !nl
[06:41] <ubotu> Op #ubuntu-nl staat de koffie al voor je klaar.
[06:41] <LjL> !nl
[06:41] <CountDown> Thanks all... seems I need to look more carefully at my repositories.
[06:41] <Sivik> tsume__, have you tried crossover office?
[06:42] <nickrud> jtj, use the monitor controls to stretch the screen
[06:42] <tsume__> Sivik: tried, didn't work ;)
[06:42] <Sivik> tsume__, ok
[06:42] <jtj> nickrud thanks ill try to find them
[06:43] <gostview> Hi, is there a method for clear desktop from the icons of mounted hard disk partition?
[06:43] <nickrud> jtj, usually buttons on the front of the screen ;)
[06:43] <bartmon> !vmware
[06:43] <ubotu> Please check this out, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare adjusting kernel versions to your own, to get the number replace the numbers with " `uname -r" The ` is a Backtic
[06:43] <aero> my crossover office worke good
[06:43] <nickrud> gostview, a method is to change /etc/fstab to change the mount points out of /media
[06:44] <CountDown> On a separate note, what's up with GTK buttons and how they don't recognize focus if the mouse is already in its rect when the window regains focus?
[06:44] <larry> I installed ubuntu server, I'm trying to setup samba, but when I run  smbpasswd -a <username /> I don't get a prompt for a password.
[06:44] <magenet> cant find vmware on synaptic
[06:44] <gostview> nickrud> but if I change /etc/fstab from media to /mnt/ they always display on my desktop
[06:45] <e-head> Anyone know if htaccess files are disabled by default for apache2 ?
[06:45] <LjL> magenet: that's because it isn't there (well, the player is)
[06:45] <Sivik> magenet, go to www.vmware.com, theres a .deb package, and install the vmware-server that way
[06:45] <magenet> i went to the site only got
[06:45] <magenet> rpm or tar
[06:45] <nickrud> gostview, sorry, forgot to mention that user or users can't be in the options section in /etc/fstab
[06:45] <magenet> i tried using alien
[06:45] <magenet> to change rpm to deb
[06:45] <LjL> !alien
[06:45] <ubotu> well, alien is [rpm]  the Redhat Package Management file. Very similar to Debian's DEB files, but require alien to install. ask me about !alien. But first, look for a native ubutu deb.
[06:45] <Sivik> magenet, download the tar, there is a .deb inside
[06:45] <magenet> ddint install well
[06:45] <magenet> ok
[06:46] <gostview> nickrud> ok, try that then.
[06:46] <LjL> though the bot gave some further important information about alien. anyway: alien is evil
[06:46] <mirem> helo
[06:46] <jtj> nickrud hehe never used those before, worked a treat hehe, ive always been on laptops b4 never had to do tht thts great, thanks
[06:46] <Bazzi> magenet: use the tar and build it yourself.
[06:47] <Sivik> Bazzi: when you untar it, there is a .deb inside, if i remember correctly
[06:47] <bartmon> Hi!
[06:47] <Sivik> Bazzi: thats how i was trying to install it
[06:47] <nickrud> jtj, I always seem to get caught up on the obvious stuff myself ;)
[06:47] <gostview> nickrud> no users in fstab, the line is this: vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[06:47] <Bazzi> uuh
[06:47] <bartmon>  I'm having problems with Dapper not automounting my usb flash disk. In breezy even a link to the device appeared on the desktop but now it's a no show.
[06:47] <Bazzi> I just got the *.pl
[06:47] <Sivik> Bazzi: unless i'm thinking of something else
[06:47] <Bazzi> and ran it
[06:47] <fogos> someone knows  where i can find the xlibs and xlibg6 for opera?
[06:47] <jtj> hehe thanks again
[06:48] <Sivik> Bazzi: the .deb package is in the zip
[06:48] <CountDown> bartmon: USB flash devices seem to work better for me on Dapper.  I haven't had any problems.  What kind of device are you using?
[06:48] <Sivik> magenet, go download the .zip, there is a .deb inside that
[06:48] <pat> Hello!

[06:49] <isluga> ola
[06:50] <pat> spikeb: oh that sucks. I just tried the live cd and hoped that it may not work because its booting from the cd .. which doesn't really make sense, but it gave me hope ;)

[06:54] <jouellette> Hi can someone here help me with sendmail?
[06:54] <nickrud> gostview, yeah, that also removes the cd/dvd from the desktop, not really right
[06:54] <gostview> nickrud> they at least disappear from my desktop
[06:54] <keithhhhh> axisys: the desktop bar?
[06:54] <asabil> Blissex, FAI ?
[06:54] <anto9us> keithhhhh, ctrl+f should also work in nautilus
[06:54] <axisys> keithhhhh: deskbar rather
[06:54] <anto9us> keithhhhh, alt+f3 takes you to the deskbar
[06:54] <asabil> ok found it
[06:54] <asabil> thanks Blissex
[06:55] <Blissex> asabil: one of the 2-3 mass install apps. ''Fully Automated Installation''. Web search first, ask second :-)

[06:57] <gnomefreak> almuleon: stop spamming

[06:58] <anto9us> keithhhhh, you clicked an empty space on the panel?
[06:58] <felipe__> McNutella: Not sure if I want a RSS feed
[06:58] <keithhhhh> anto9us: what panel?

[06:59] <keithhhhh> ooooooo
[06:59] <bartmon> gostview, gid= means which user group can use the device
[06:59] <felipe__> McNutella: point taken

[07:02] <mxpxpod> is there a page to view what is in the buildd cache?
[07:02] <anarqi> !tell kernel

[07:07] <hadi57> any body can help me to copy files to a removable hardisk connected via usb, it gives me message access denied
[07:08] <joebush> Where is the configuration that firefox uses to start applications based on filetype?
[07:08] <rambo> let me know if you find out
[07:08] <joebush> specifically bittorrent
[07:08] <bert_> h
[07:08] <rambo> oh
[07:08] <rambo> well windows handles that
[07:09] <joebush> but where? I am used to file/mimetypes in firefox
[07:09] <rambo> yeah
[07:09] <rambo> haha
[07:09] <edulix> hey!
[07:09] <rambo> i'm trying to remember
[07:09] <edulix> I have prelink installed
[07:09] <edulix> yesterday I did an aptitude update
[07:10] <edulix> and *today* when I restarted the pc, now I'm getting this with gtk/gnome apps (including gdm):
[07:10] <edulix>  error while loading shared libraries: libcairo.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:10] <rambo> ew
[07:10] <rambo> prelink is overrated imo
[07:10] <edulix> I've re-run /etc/cron.daily/prelink but didn't fix a thing
[07:10] <gnomefreak> edulix: sudo apt-get install libcairo-dev
[07:10] <edulix> rambo: kde apps, opera and amsn work perfectly
[07:11] <mattwestm> how do I get the laptop/battery monitor back in the upper right corner?
[07:11] <gnomefreak> mattwestm: right click and add it to panel
[07:11] <gast> hallo
[07:11] <edulix> gnomefreak: the state of libcairo2-dev in my system according to aptitude is:
[07:11] <edulix> iB  libcairo2-dev                             - Development files for the Cairo 2D graphics library
[07:11] <erikh> does gparted normally take > 10 minutes for a 120G drive?
[07:11] <rambo> edulix: probably a localized problem then.... still though, prelink can mess up the libraries pretty bad
[07:11] <edulix> which I belive means "installed"
[07:12] <mattwestm> gnomefreak: I don't see it. I had options for closing the lid and such
[07:12] <mattwestm> it was more than the battery monitor
[07:12] <edulix> rambo: whem starting firefox the error is the same but about libplds4.so
[07:12] <gnomefreak> mattwestm: nmot sure unless it was something that you added from apt/synaptic
[07:13] <gnuaha7> yglez: what's upppppppppppp
[07:13] <gnomefreak> edulix: sudo apt-get build-dep firefox
[07:13] <erikh> heh, this is freaking me out a little. I backed up, but still..
[07:13] <rambo> edulix: :(
[07:13] <mattwestm> gnomefreak: it was there from the start. It was like the power management thing and a battery manager all in one
[07:13] <gnomefreak> edulix: that should take care of any errors you are getting
[07:13] <yglez> gnuaha7, hello!
[07:14] <gnomefreak> mattwestm: i dont see anything like that in mine try killall gnome-panel see if it comes back
[07:14] <edulix> gnomefreak: good :)
[07:15] <erikh> does anyone know roughly how long gparted should take for a 120G drive?
[07:15] <axisys> how do I access to a windows network drive?
[07:15] <LjL> erikh: for doing what?
[07:15] <erikh> resizing ntfs
[07:15] <gnuaha7> axisys: samba
[07:15] <LjL> erikh: i think it depends how full the partition is, and how fragmented the files are
[07:15] <wastrel> i think ubuntu works ok
[07:15] <erikh> I kind of figured that. still, no progress indicator, heh.
[07:16] <axisys> gnuaha7: i figured that much but unlike breeze I cannot just connect to the server using my domain account
[07:16] <mattwestm> gnomefreak: my fault, it was set to only display when charging or discharging
[07:16] <LjL> erikh: i would figure from 15 minutes to half an hour, but just a guess
[07:16] <mattwestm> gnomefreak: it was under power management
[07:16] <rambo> axisys: mount -t smbfs -u username=name,password=pass \\my\great\windows\share mydir/
[07:16] <gnomefreak> mattwestm: ok
[07:16] <edulix> gnomefreak: I've done that, still fails
[07:16] <erikh> LjL: ok, that's at least something a little more reassuring. Thanks so much.
[07:16] <axisys> rambo: cool let me try that
[07:16] <rambo> go for it
[07:16] <rambo> oops
[07:16] <rambo> -o
[07:16] <rambo> not -u
[07:16] <gnomefreak> edulix: restart firefox and than give me the exact command
[07:17] <larry> so I'm connecting to a newly installed ubuntu server and something isn't working right.  When I'm running sudo commands, I'm not getting back prompts for some stuff,  sudo shutdown -r  only works sporadically.  I'm not sure where to start to look for whats going on.
[07:17] <rambo> larry: do "sudo passwd"
[07:17] <rambo> larry: then you can login to yor root account from a login place
[07:18] <erikh> still though, sudo shouldn't muffle the std file descriptors
[07:18] <edulix> gnomefreak: I've found something interesting, see (I'll paste in pastebin)
[07:19] <KuLover> When a hard drive is mounted and I copy files to the mount point on which it is mounted, am I copying filed to the hard drive? or do I need to say.. system:/media/sd1?
[07:19] <larry> heh, sudo passwd doesn't return anything, just drops me back on a shell prompt
[07:19] <joebush> I'd like to change how firefox opens an application when I click on a link. Does anyone know where I should look?
[07:19] <edulix> gnomfreak: http://pastebin.com/711109
[07:20] <rambo> joebush: firefox documentation
[07:20] <joebush> rambo: id you don't know, please don't respond
[07:20] <gnuaha7> axisys: usually the domain name and password of windows is not right... try changing it
[07:20] <gnuaha7> axisys: off course if doesnt work the rambo's idea
[07:20] <joebush> fi
[07:20] <joebush> if
[07:20] <mattwestm> how can I tell if my clock is on UTC?
[07:20] <gnuaha7> KuLover: the mount point and /media/sd1 is the same one doesn't??
[07:20] <rambo> sorry joebush
[07:20] <gnomefreak> edulix: sudo aptitude
[07:20] <gnomefreak> edulix: you need to run aptitude with sudo
[07:21] <edulix> gnomefreak: I'm in root...
[07:21] <edulix> gnomefreak: sudo su -
[07:21] <Nightwish1986> Hello! Anyone who can help me with sound problems (ALSA) ?
[07:21] <kidr> alsamixer doesn't work for me. When I try to run it it says alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[07:22] <gnomefreak> edulix: well get out of it and try sudo aptitude   the error your getting is a permissions error
[07:22] <edulix> oks
[07:22] <gnuaha7> Nightwish1986: what kind of problem???
[07:22] <edulix> gnomefreak: I get the same
[07:22] <larry> rambo: any advice since sudo passwd also muffles the prompt or whatever?
[07:23] <Nightwish1986> gnuaha7: The sound is working but with an awful beep in it. It is on a HDA Intel (AD1986A)
[07:23] <gnomefreak> edulix: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall <packagename>
[07:23] <edulix> gnomefreak: I promise didn't halt my system badly :P
[07:23] <edulix> ok
[07:23] <rambo> larry: what shell are you using?
[07:23] <edulix> the same
[07:24] <gnomefreak> edulix: give me a min
[07:24] <larry> bash I think?  I powercycled the machine a second ago, give me a sec.
[07:24] <rambo> sure
[07:24] <wastrel> bash eh
[07:24] <edulix> gnomefreak: ok. just see this: http://pastebin.com/711117
[07:25] <edulix> something seems messed up in there
[07:25] <ic56> mattwestm: cat /etc/default/rcS
[07:25] <MusicEatingPanda> how do i get the newest Gxine on 5.10?
[07:25] <gnomefreak> edulix: remove the libcairo2 package
[07:25] <gnomefreak> edulix: thats what i was thinking
[07:25] <edulix> gnomfreak: impossible, too many things depends on them
[07:26] <gnuaha7> Nightwish1986: and awfull beep??? i don't understand what are you saying... when you play... your internal beep sound also???
[07:26] <edulix> did you see the libspeex IO error? really strange
[07:26] <gnomefreak> edulix: you need to change the file permissions
[07:27] <gnomefreak> edulix: are you on dapper?
[07:27] <edulix> yes
[07:27] <Nightwish1986> gnuaha7: The internal beep is working fine, It's just whenever a sound is played, you hear a terrible scratchy noise trough the speakers.
[07:27] <jenda> Anyone using an "ATI MOBILITY RADEON X300"? Does it work OK?
[07:27] <edulix> maybe I should do a reiserfsfsck ? because to me the FS seems broken
[07:28] <larry> rambo: yeah, it's bash
[07:28] <Nightwish1986> gnuaha7: I checked the speakers, they are working (in Windows XP for example). I already tried unmuting some channels in alsamixer, but no luck
[07:28] <gnuaha7> Nightwish1986: and you are shure that is the alsa your driver... do you try setting your sound output OSS or others... it's work for me
[07:28] <gnomefreak> edulix: take a look at the file permissions 0of the file (or symlink) and i think you will find issue also make sure the symlink ubuntu made is not broken
[07:28] <B0FH> is the dlink dwl-520 supported in ubuntu?
[07:28] <rambo> larry: try SSH'ing into your machine or making a new user and then trying sudo
[07:28] <B0FH> !hardware
[07:28] <ubotu> well, hardware is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:28] <gnomefreak> edulix: its not the fs its the file or link
[07:29] <Nightwish1986> gnuaha7: Same problem if I change the card to AD1896A OSS Mixer
[07:30] <kidr> alsamixer doesn't work for me. When I try to run it it says alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[07:30] <larry> rambo: I think I may know what happened.  I copied an old home directory into my current one, is it possible the old .bash* files could be doing this? (didn't mean to move them over)
[07:30] <edulix> gnomfreak: too many libraries are failing
[07:31] <untwisted> mornin all
[07:31] <someothernick> gm
[07:31] <untwisted> well, I guess afternoon is more like it haha
[07:32] <edulix> gnomfreak: you saw the libspeex problem right? trying to reinstall give the same error: "cannot stat to file. permission denied"
[07:32] <edulix> so i did a mv file file2
[07:32] <edulix> and then retried
[07:32] <edulix> and I got this:
[07:32] <edulix> http://pastebin.com/711129
[07:33] <edulix> but the speex error is already gone :P
[07:33] <kidr> i was following the tutorial at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetupSoundCards to manually load snd-cs46xx, but when I tried to run alsamixer I got: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[07:33] <MusicEatingPanda> how do i get the newest Gxine on 5.10?
[07:34] <garryfre> kidr: Do you have a sb live card? I had this issue when somehow my login had lost sound priveleges. Check your privileges if you haven't already
[07:34] <gnomefreak> edulix: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[07:35] <edulix> yeah that's what I was already doing ;) will take some time
[07:35] <kidr> garryfre: device manager says i have CS 4610/11 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] 
[07:35] <edulix> I think it's a prelink problem
[07:35] <avis> hi garryfre :)
[07:35] <garryfre> kidr So how's your priveleges?
[07:36] <garryfre> avis HIya. :)
[07:36] <kidr> brb
[07:36] <larry> rambo:  nope, I can't shell and run adduser, it doesn't print anything, just drops me back to the prompt
[07:37] <garryfre> Try sudo adduser?
[07:37] <Nightwish1986> Anybody know how to fix scratchy beeps when playing sounds with ALSA? (AD1986A)
[07:37] <xenalise> Nightwish!!!

[07:38] <Nightwish1986> at the moment?? dead boy's poem, all time?? sleeping sun
[07:38] <garryfre> I don't know but I've had that scratchiness myself. I got rid of it by messign with alsamixer I don't know what I did to get it to stop but it did. Just love them bugs that take so long to fix that by the time its fixed ye don't know how ye did it.
[07:38] <xenalise> dead boy's poem makes me cry :(
[07:38] <Nightwish1986> I'm so glad I've seen them playing live...
[07:38] <xenalise> really amazing piece
[07:38] <xenalise> I saw them live too

[07:39] <xenalise> always have a tear in my eye heh
[07:39] <garryfre> kidr yeah, most of the boxes should be checked except things for stuff you might not have like tape drives.
[07:39] <wastrel> larry:  what groups are you in
[07:40] <Nightwish1986> hehe, I know that myself too...
[07:40] <garryfre> There is a command to reconfigure sound. lemme see if the bot knows about sound ...

[07:40] <larry> wastrel: gah!!!!   I forgot, I changed my groups!! and I'm not used to ubuntu and didn't keep all those old groups.
[07:41] <wastrel> you need to be in admin to use sudo

[07:41] <xenalise> anyone have any idea about keyboard probs btw?
[07:41] <larry> wastrel wins.  thank you very much
[07:41] <xenalise> for some reason my lappy wont output GBP key
[07:41] <jeld> anyone here used ocfs2?
[07:41] <garryfre> wireless keyboards?
[07:42] <xenalise> everytime I press shift + 3 it puts "3"

[07:44] <dor> hello guys. when i log into ubuntu, it mounts my NTFS partitions, which is cool. the problem is that it puts icons on my desktop for all the mounted devices, and i don't want it to be like that. can someone help me?
[07:44] <wastrel> larry:  boot to recovery mode and add yourself back to admin
[07:45] <wastrel> or boot from a rescue cd
[07:45] <ic56> dor: are those icons symbolic links?
[07:45] <garryfre> I'm thinking the noauto is what you want in the fstab lines for those devices so it don't auto boot them
[07:45] <salva> hola
[07:45] <larry> bah:  the box is headless, now I have to move it.  Thank you very much for your help.
[07:45] <dor> ic56, yes
[07:45] <ic56> dor: then just remove them.
[07:46] <LjL> !desktop-icons
[07:46] <ubotu> To have icons for drives and the trashcan on your Gnome desktop, run the GConf Editor (run 'gconf-editor' in Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and edit the keys in /apps/nautilus/desktop and/or /apps/nautilus/general)
[07:46] <garryfre> Commenting them out with # works too. That way you can put them back if you should wnat to mount them.
[07:46] <dor> ic56, it says that i can't move this volume to trash
[07:47] <ic56> dor: one minute, let me check something.
[07:47] <wilerson> Hi all, I'm having some issues with my sound driver. My sound was working fine before, but when I installed some libraries for restricted formats, the sound got scrambled
[07:47] <LjL> i wouldn't remove the symlinks. i bet they get recreated at every mount
[07:47] <garryfre> The lines in /etc/fstab where it specifies your mount stuff.
[07:47] <edulix> gnomfreak: btw see this: http://pastebin.com/711148
[07:48] <dor> LjL, thanks! a key in /apps/nautilus/desktop fixed it!
[07:48] <dor> ic56, ^
[07:48] <dor> thank you guys
[07:48] <dor> good bye
[07:49] <garryfre> welcome
[07:49] <and1> Hey
[07:49] <edulix> I think I will solve it by moving thos file elsewhere (anyway they're noty working right?) and reinstalling all the packages related as I did with libspeex
[07:49] <and1> i need to install nvidia drivers
[07:49] <dust_> hi folks. does anyone know if there are two apps that control monitor settings? my screen will go black after a period of time even though it is not set to in the powersave options.
[07:49] <garryfre> !nvidia
[07:49] <ubotu> well, nvidia is a graphics card manufacturer. For help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu, you can visit the Ubuntu Wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/NVidia
[07:49] <and1> but it cant find LD
[07:49] <and1> thnx
[07:49] <LjL> LD?
[07:50] <edulix> is there a command to see which installed package does a concrete file belong to?
[07:50] <edulix> that would be very useful to me right now
[07:50] <ic56> dor: ah. so they weren't symlinks then?
[07:50] <and1> This page does not exist yet. You can create a new empty page, or use one of the page templates. Before creating the page, please check if a similar page already exists
[07:50] <LjL> edulix: auto-apt will do that for both installed and not installed packages
[07:50] <kidr> ty for the help, i got my sound working with sudo modprobe snd-cs4236  :)
[07:50] <garryfre> kidr:  excellent.
[07:50] <LjL> edulix: otherwise, dpkg -S filename
[07:50] <edulix> LJL: what's that? remember, I'm getting "cannot stat file X, permission denied"
[07:51] <LjL> !auto-apt
[07:51] <edulix> so it needs to remove those files
[07:51] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, LjL
[07:51] <wastrel> edulix:  apt-file
[07:52] <LjL> auto-apt allows you to type "auto-apt search filename" to know what package a file (even a file you don't have) belongs to. also allows to "auto-apt run programname", which pauses the program everytime a file isn't found, and asks you whether you want to install the relevant package
[07:52] <LjL> edulix: at any rate, dpkg -S is probably good enough for what you need to do
[07:52] <LjL> wastrel: auto-apt is usually faster than apt-file
[07:52] <edulix> ok
[07:52] <carlosj> carlosj
[07:52] <carlosj> ola
[07:52] <wastrel> okey dokey
[07:53] <garryfre> ld sounds like it might be a linker. One no longer compile video drivers generally in dapper, instead, the package manager provides pre-compiled drivers for the kernels they put out. So unless you are using a custom kernel, you would not need to recompile a video driver.
[07:54] <erikh> is there a way to change the resolution list in ubuntu's GNOME?
[07:54] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell erikh -about fixres
[07:54] <erikh> thank you sir
[07:54] <webwolf_27> erikh, adjust xorg.conf

[07:56] <oshani> Hi.. I'm a newbie to Ubuntu, just installed 6.06 and I want to know how I can play mp3s in totem
[07:56] <oshani> particularly what codecs to install?
[07:57] <judah> !tell oshani mp3
[07:57] <judah> hrm. that didn't work.
[07:57] <webwolf_27> oshani, lame, libmad
[07:57] <dust_> oshani, check out the wiki, look for restricted formats
[07:57] <judah> what they said..
[07:58] <xbeanx> Where are the gnome menu entries stored (for all users)..?  There's a menu entry in there that I cannot delete as a user or as root.
[07:58] <dust_> you can get to the wiki from the ubuntu homepage
[07:58] <oshani> yes, I checked in http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[07:58] <oshani> but they don't seem to work!
[07:58] <webwolf_27> oshani, what player are you using
[07:58] <oshani> toem
[07:58] <oshani> totem
[07:59] <jrattner1> alright
[07:59] <gayan> koi
[07:59] <jrattner1> someone ask me for help
[07:59] <judah> jrattner1: can i have some help?
[07:59] <dust_> oshani, i've never tried totem. do you mp3's work in rhythmbox?
[07:59] <gayan> aarron
[07:59] <gayan> t la ou quoi?
[07:59] <jrattner1> judah, shoot
[08:00] <judah> *bang*
[08:00] <garryfre> I'm beyond help. Sorry. :)
[08:00] <garryfre> LoL Judah
[08:00] <jang_> fdksfkjljkfdlsjf 
[08:00] <jang_>  ..
[08:01] <webwolf_27> oshani, damn what does totem use again, try xmms with xmms-mad installed
[08:01] <garryfre> jang_:  I suspect a syntax errror there.
[08:01] <judah> totem uses gstreamer just like rhythmbox.
[08:01] <judah> oh right.. i was in hiding.
[08:01] <garryfre> but I like that font.
[08:01] <jrib> ubotu: tell oshani about mp3
[08:02] <RancidLM> hey all.. does any one know of a application to record what im doing on the desktop.. iv seen vnc to swf but im looking to record my xsession to a mpg .. any suggestions?
[08:03] <garryfre> If all else fails there is a package for taking and saving screenshots
[08:03] <dust_> are there are two apps that control monitor settings? my screen will go black after a while even though it is not set to in the powersave options but if i adjust the power save options i can effect how long it takes.
[08:03] <axisys> rambo: i get this
[08:03] <axisys> rambo: i get this mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbs'
[08:03] <garryfre> Hmm some bios have power saving stuff.
[08:03] <dust_> or is there an acpi setting that would do that?
[08:03] <axisys> !samba
[08:03] <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
[08:03] <rambo> axisys: should be smbfs not smbs
[08:04] <oshani> dust_, Hi, just tried playing an mp3 with rhythm box... but I got an error saying "The file is not an audio stream"
[08:04] <webwolf_27> oshani, and with xmms
[08:04] <NoUse> axisys probably would help to spell it correctly :-) smbfs
[08:04] <axisys> NoUse: u r right on money :-)
[08:04] <Snowfairy> Is there a way to screenshot a virtual desktop in Gnome?  (EX: I'm looking at Workspace 1, I want to take a screenshot of workspace 4 though.)
[08:05] <Sphygmos> hey.. is there a way to probe the AGP port? i have this AGP video card that doesn't seem to show up on lspci
[08:05] <Sphygmos> and i need to figure out what device it is so i can put it in xorg.conf
[08:06] <garryfre> Sphygmos: try seeing what dmesg gives you.
[08:07] <dust_> oshani, i'm sorry i can't offer much advice. i would go back and make sure that you did everything right in the wiki (i often mispell things or miss small steps) and make sure that your mp3 files aren't corrupt. but other than that you'll have to find someone more experienced. sorry.
[08:07] <usuario> UIOHUI
[08:07] <asabil> Snowfairy, sleep 5 && import screeny.png
[08:07] <Sphygmos> just says AGP aperture is 256M
[08:07] <asabil> Snowfairy, sleep 5 && import --root screeny.png
[08:07] <axisys> rambo: i get this now http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/aUNa2623.html
[08:07] <Snowfairy> asabil,  Won;t that just delay the screenshot?
[08:07] <BearKnuckle> I tried to install jahshaka and found this thread: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188145. Like mentioned in the thread, the repo seems to be malformed, because if you want to install something, apt tries to download for example: Failed to fetch http://repo.jahshaka.org/ubuntu/dapper/binary-i386/binary-i386//jahshaka_2.0rc3_i386.deb  404 Not Found. For sure it failes, because the "binary-i386" is doubled and the 
[08:07] <Snowfairy> Ideally, I'd like to make this a cron job that doesn't interrupt what I'm doing (IE: I don't have to switch to that desktop)
[08:07] <asabil> Snowfairy, it will give you time to switch to workspace :)
[08:07] <wonbond> i need help ,help help
[08:08] <BearKnuckle> The line I added in sources.list is: deb http://repo.jahshaka.org/ubuntu/dapper/binary-i386 ./
[08:08] <dust_> garryfre, strangely i don't have a BIOS. sorry i can't change anything there. all my settings a ACPI.
[08:08] <webwolf_27> wonbond, with what, what what
[08:08] <rambo> axisys: hmm...
[08:08] <Snowfairy> asabil, -nods- import also has a delay function,  not really what I'm looking for... I'd hoped that each desktop had a window id... but unfortunately, they don't.
[08:08] <gostview> nickrud> here I am
[08:08] <rambo> axisys: make sure you have done a sudo apt-get install samba
[08:08] <nickrud> hey, gostview I had to reboot to get the proper desktop action ;(
[08:09] <asabil> Snowfairy, sorry i don't know how to achieve this
[08:09] <Snowfairy> I think Ubuntu manages virtual desktops in an odd fashion.... each desktop is indeed the one original root desktop... but it keeps properties on whether to display a window or not depending on something.
[08:09] <wonbond> webwolf_27: i installed fglrx as root and i cant login to x as a user but i can start x as root
[08:09] <RQ> what's a name for the developer channel?
[08:09] <Snowfairy> asabil, thanks anyways, I'll keep looking :)
[08:09] <adolson> how can I add a menu entry for the Run Application dialog box? I know how to add it to the panel, and I know I can use Alt+F2, but I want it in the Applications menu.
[08:09] <Snowfairy> perhaps if I Were to use a different window manager other than metacity I could accomplish what I Want :)
[08:09] <wastrel> bye now
[08:09] <larry> what is the proper way to boot into rescue mode?
[08:09] <webwolf_27> wonbond, who owns gdm
[08:10] <gostview> nickrud> why did you reboot?
[08:10] <garryfre> dust hmm, only computer I saw that din't have a bios was an etch a sketch. hehe, Just kidding. It could be so, or it could be some proprietary way to get into the bios. You know how engineers are, they love to change/mess up/hide things.
[08:10] <nickrud> gostview, as a test.
[08:10] <gostview> nickrud> ohh ok
[08:10] <axisys> rambo: installing it now
[08:10] <wonbond> webwolf_27:i what do u mean?
[08:10] <gostview> nickrud> did you remember my last question? :)
[08:10] <rambo> axisys: probably a good idea :)
[08:11] <axisys> rambo: it also started the samba daemon.. i do not think i need that to connect to windows server.. correct?
[08:11] <Cin> Snowfairy, some window managers have weird settings with the taskbar... confusing.
[08:11] <dust_> garryfre, i am pretty certain, but how would i double check?
[08:11] <webwolf_27> wonbond, does your system bootup into a gui or console?
[08:11] <nickrud> gostview, last one I saw was about getting volumes off of the desktop
[08:11] <rambo> axisys: probably not
[08:11] <gostview> nickrud> so, did you obtain any result?
[08:11] <Snowfairy> Cin, how so?
[08:11] <nickrud> gostview, a step in the right direction
[08:11] <axisys> rambo: still same error
[08:11] <RQ>  hi. Could anyone have any idea why alsa-sources from debian/testing won't compile on ubuntu/dapper? it seems to fail with "include/linux/pci.h:424: error: syntax error before numeric constant"
[08:12] <nostalg1c> somewhat offtopic, but does anyone here read chinese?
[08:12] <garryfre> Google for your computer brand, or something should appear on screen tot ell yo the type of chipset you got. in terminal lspci might tell you something. Also try dmesg
[08:12] <gostview> nickrud> I try to change many lines in fstab without any success
[08:12] <axisys> rambo: let me check wiki and i may bug u again
[08:12] <larry> I hit F6 at the DVD boot prompt menu and added "rescue" as an option and now it's going through some pretty long memory test
[08:12] <wonbond> webwolf_27: it boots to the x login screen, i eneter passwords and it tries to log in and kicks me out, second time i lose video , i can start x as root from command and it runs well
[08:12] <Snowfairy> and doesn't appear it matters.... I just tested kwin, it still doesn't seem to affect how virtual desktops are rendered... perhaps I misunderstood how they work and what I Want simply isn't possible :( is a shame :/
[08:13] <gostview> nickrud> what step? tell me.
[08:13] <nickrud> gostview, after you do the rearranging, if you reboot it won't show on the desktop. I'm looking at the scripts in rcS.d at the moment to see what's going on there
[08:13] <Snowfairy> kwin still sees each 'desktop' as the same.... so that means virtual desktops are handled only by a property of 'display if workspace =' kind of thing...
[08:13] <Cin> Snowfairy, well, like, how each desktop can display a different taskbar, which seems logical to me. Some display one taskbar for all windows and desktops.
[08:13] <rambo> axisys: good idea... also, try doing the same command but with all of the \ slashes turned into / slashes
[08:13] <webwolf_27> wonbond, is it and xlogin screen or gnome login screen
[08:13] <axisys> rambo: guess what i did not have smbfs installed.. duh !
[08:13] <garryfre> dust_ simetimes it booting up while holding down f2, sometimes its ctrl-alt-s or F8 or Alt or even a special disk that allows bios access.
[08:14] <adolson> how can I add a menu entry for the Run Application dialog box? I know how to add it to the panel, and I know I can use Alt+F2, but I want it in the Applications menu.
[08:14] <Snowfairy> so, using that logic, it's impossible to view or reference a workspace that you're not really looking at :/
[08:14] <rambo> axisys: oh haha i assumed apt-get install samba would cover that
[08:14] <Snowfairy> CIn, oh right..  like blackbox and such.
[08:14] <Cin> Snowfairy, aye.
[08:14] <Cin> XFCE does it, but I forgive it.
[08:14] <wonbond> webwolf_27: i have kde , so its kde login screen ,
[08:14] <Snowfairy> Cin those support the theory I have of how virtual desktops work (since they keep displaying loaded applications just display them or not by what desktop your on.)
[08:15] <Snowfairy> It's frustrating... I'd really like to be able to cron shots of just my desktop (kind of a geek vanity thing :P)
[08:15] <Snowfairy> and I don't want to capture applications I have open as well :P
[08:15] <Cin> Snowfairy, depends how you want to visualise your desktops I guess.
[08:15] <webwolf_27> wonbond, ok so who owns kdm
[08:15] <spikeb> Snowfairy: you can use import for that
[08:15] <gostview> nickrud> rearrange... how did you rearrange, maybe I lost a pieces of your test
[08:15] <Snowfairy> spikeb, it won't do just the desktop
[08:15] <Snowfairy> it'll grab all open windows.
[08:15] <spikeb> every SS thing will.
[08:16] <Snowfairy> spikeb, if you read up, my question was whether I could screenshot a virtual desktop I wasn't looking at.
[08:16] <wonbond> webwolf_27: i dont know how to check
[08:16] <spikeb> oh
[08:16] <Snowfairy> I think the best way to get what I want is just start another x server, log in, and run the cron job on there and never run any apps on that xserver :P
[08:16] <spikeb> yeah
[08:17] <and1> Hey when trying to install the nvidia driver i get this error Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[08:17] <and1> This script cannot proceed automatically. If you believe that this
[08:17] <and1> not correct, you can update the md5sum entry executing the following

[08:17] <edulix> uh
[08:17] <edulix> I have a problem
[08:17] <axisys> rambo: i am in.. i had to do this -o username=xxxx,workgroup=activedirname and it prompts for password
[08:17] <edulix> what can I do with a file whose state is
[08:17] <nickrud> gostview, simply moved my hda1 from /media/hda1 to /windows. I did the change to /etc/fstab right after intial install. I probably changed my kernel at the same time, and didn't see this issue because I rebooted
[08:17] <edulix> ?---------   ? ?      ?          ?            ? /usr/lib/evolution
[08:17] <webwolf_27> wonbond, ls -l /SBIN/KDM
[08:17] <and1> and /etc/x11/xorg.conf doesnt exist
[08:17] <edulix> because anything I try I get permission denied
[08:17] <axisys> rambo: would be nice if i could do it as a user and not root
[08:17] <webwolf_27> without the caps
[08:18] <gostview> nickrud> I do the same, but nothing changed
[08:18] <NoUse> and1 linux is case senstive
[08:18] <NoUse> and1 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:18] <adolson> how can I add a menu entry for the Run Application dialog box? I know how to add it to the panel, and I know I can use Alt+F2, but I want it in the Applications menu.
[08:18] <and1> hehe ok:P
[08:18] <and1> forgot
[08:18] <garryfre> try sudo it is your friend and gateway to freedom to control and configure your system. If you tried sudo ignore this message.
[08:19] <nickrud> gostview, you need the reboot. hotplug is gone, plugdev handles this now. I generally understood hotplug, but obviously not plugdev
[08:19] <eXistenZ> Something happened to my ftp server, it doesn't log in fast. it takes some time when logging, this thing happened newly
[08:19] <rambo> axisys: there's a way to let non-root users mount drives... lemme look it up
[08:20] <eXistenZ> Where can I check my ftp logs?
[08:20] <jrattner1> rambo, add them to the group it belongs too
[08:20] <jrib> rambo: the 'user' option I believe
[08:20] <rambo> jrattner1: that's what i thought... just can't recall the group name
[08:20] <rambo> right
[08:20] <jrattner1> rambo, is it mount?
[08:21] <gostview> nickrud> sound too difficolt for my kwnoledge, really can't help you, ... did you try make install-hotplug?
[08:21] <rambo> jrattner1: might be... looking it up now
[08:21] <dust_> garryfre, i looking on the toshiba website then i'm going to restart. i'll let in a while. thanks.
[08:21] <Snowfairy> Here's an extenuation of the last question... how do I know what XServer I'm on?  it doesn't appear that they're number 0 1 2 :P
[08:22] <edulix> please someone? :/
[08:22] <edulix> maybe remounting the partition or similar?
[08:23] <Sphygmos> hey.. is there an application for ubuntu that would display a Mac OS X like launch bar?
[08:23] <Cin> eXistenZ, /var/log?
[08:24] <NoUse> edulix sudo apt-get --reinstall install evolution
[08:24] <eXistenZ> Cin, There is something weird that happened. After I ssh, and type my username, it takes time for the password request to appear.
[08:24] <Cin> Sphygmos, I think there's one for superkaramba.
[08:24] <eXistenZ> Cin, very weird indeed!
[08:24] <edulix> NoUse: that doesn't work
[08:24] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to set linux up where I can have caller id while connected so I can screen calls with dialup??
[08:25] <Cin> eXistenZ, aye that is weird.
[08:25] <Scorpmoon> i start ubuntu and get X failed to start.. No devices detected
[08:25] <NoUse> edulix be more specific
[08:25] <gostview> nickrud> I can't more follow you: you modify fstab change /media in /mnt and after that you reboot the system, as a result of this you lost hotplug, is that right?
[08:25] <eXistenZ> Cin, How can I see whether there is some error or something?
[08:25] <ScatterBrain> Anyone using Amavisd-new on Dapper?
[08:25] <jps_> seits ihr alle englnder ?
[08:25] <nickrud> gostview, the problem is that hotplug doesn't work the same way anymore,
[08:25] <keithhhhh> Anyone using  	Avidemux??  What is the newest version that can be run in Breezy??
[08:25] <wonbond> webwolf_27: sorry , im slow,  i have 6 kdm folders , which one should i check
[08:25] <pally> where does these 'ae_ALHor, ae_Hor,..' fonts come from?
[08:25] <jrattner1> QUESTION: Anyone configue LDAP on Dapper yet?
[08:25] <edulix> NoUSe: I cannot do nothing with the file, neither can any program I can execute. dpkg gives me permission denied when executing stat
[08:25] <rambo> axisys: ok you're going to need to open up your /etc/group file(make a backup first) and add your username to the line disk. should look something like disk:x:6:root,yourusername
[08:25] <rambo> then do a reboot
[08:25] <Cntryboy> Anyone?
[08:26] <NoUse> edulix can you remove it?
[08:26] <gostview> nickrud> did you try with re-install hotplug? (launch make install-hotplug)
[08:26] <edulix> NoUse: of course no :)
[08:26] <Cntryboy> anyone here use dialup?
[08:26] <jps_> channel #kacken
[08:26] <edulix> I think I'll try reiserfsck
[08:27] <Cntryboy> No dialup users?
[08:27] <NoUse> edulix you can alter other files on that parition?
[08:27] <Cntryboy> I need to figure this out grr
[08:27] <edulix> yes
[08:27] <Cin> eXistenZ, is there an ftp log in /var/log/?
[08:27] <tvlooy> hello
[08:27] <eXistenZ> Cin, nope
[08:27] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to set linux up where I can have caller id while connected so I can screen calls with dialup??
[08:27] <pally> where does these 'ae_ALHor, ae_Hor,..' fonts come from?
[08:27] <eXistenZ> Cin, I checked tha auth.log, nothing wrong
[08:27] <tvlooy> I have just destroyed my partition table
[08:28] <NoUse> edulix have you tried using 'sudo rm -f /usr/bin/evolution'
[08:28] <tvlooy> the partitions still exist and I have a backup of /etc and /boot
[08:28] <gostview> nickrud> well, it's really a nonsense, there is no leading beetween hotplug and fstab? it's a lot strange, didn't it?
[08:28] <Cin> eXistenZ, I'm quite new to Linux services, mate. I have seen that before though, it takes like... 5 seconds for it to login? Always wondered what that is.
[08:28] <higen> is there any game like masters of orion for linux?
[08:28] <tvlooy> someone knows any tools that can fix the partion table?
[08:28] <edulix> NoUse: that's what I was doing
[08:28] <tvlooy> I booted the ubuntu live cd now
[08:28] <gnomefreak> tvlooy: gparted
[08:29] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to set linux up where I can have caller id while connected so I can screen calls with dialup??
[08:29] <eXistenZ> Cin, Although I'm logging on a lan. It worked well, until once I had a router crash
[08:29] <gostview> nickrud> however ... do you reach to hide the icon on desktop?
[08:29] <loanwolf> ? anyone what package to i need fore mpeg playback in xine
[08:29] <MusicEatingPanda> HELLO how would i install dappers Xine in breezy?
[08:29] <xcoyote> hello question: where does tomcat/webapps is located after installing it with apt-get ?
[08:29] <Cin> eXistenZ, maybe it needs a restart? (The service)
 need help with my dual monitor setup
 now i have 2 seperate desktops (one on each moitor)
 but i want ONE big desktop
 so that i can move windows from one to another
 someone knwos how to configue this?
[08:29] <gnomefreak> icefeldt: dont paste
[08:30] <gostview> nickrud> * have you got success in that?
[08:30] <eXistenZ> Cin, what command restarts the system? shutdown -a ?
[08:30] <wonbond> cd
[08:30] <xcoyote> question: where does tomcat/webapps is located after installing it with apt-get ?
[08:30] <Cin> eXistenZ, well, 'reboot'. But you should just be able to type a command to restart the ftp service.
[08:30] <MusicEatingPanda> HELLO how would i install dappers Xine in breezy?
[08:30] <Cntryboy> why won't anyone help me?
[08:30] <NoUse> edulix sounds like you need to run fsck on that parition
[08:30] <finger> Can anyone think of a reason why this wouldn't work  in a crontab ... ?
[08:30] <nickrud> gostview, what I did, was alter the /etc/fstab and rebooted. As I said, I'm reading over the rcS.d scripts to see if I can discover why the reboot was needed.
[08:30] <finger> 29 13,22 * * * cd /usr/local/bin/job/ && ./posting_script
[08:30] <NoUse> edulix boot off a live cd
[08:30] <Cntryboy> is what i'm asking to hard for most of you?
[08:30] <edulix> NoUse: suppose I have no CD (nor live nor the installator)
[08:30] <Cin> /etc/init.d/ftp restart ?
[08:31] <Cin> eXistenZ, /etc/init.d/ftp restart -- does that work?
[08:31] <xcoyote> question: where does tomcat/webapps is located after installing it with apt-get ?
[08:31] <nickrud> gostview, or, was successful, since it shouldn't be needed
[08:31] <NoUse> edulix try the recovery mode
[08:31] <eXistenZ> Cin, I restarted the system. That's okay.
[08:31] <edulix> oks
[08:31] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: bad idea
[08:31] <Cin> eXistenZ, I don't have an FTP server installed, so I can't test it.
[08:31] <edulix> thanks I'll try!
[08:31] <Cin> eXistenZ, hehe.
[08:31] <MusicEatingPanda> gnomefreak its just Xine TT_TT
[08:31] <eXistenZ> Cin, even the ssh
[08:31] <xcoyote> question: where does tomcat/webapps is located after installing it with apt-get ?
[08:31] <larry> NoUse: how do you get into recovery mode from the DVD, there's not menu option for it
[08:32] <NoUse> larry recovery mode is for an installed system
[08:32] <loanwolf> ? where can i find mpeg codecs fore xine
[08:32] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to set linux up where I can have caller id while connected so I can screen calls with dialup??
[08:32] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: its a bad idea mixing packages/repos can give you major issues
[08:32] <MusicEatingPanda> gnomefreak but i just want the Xine from dapper nothing else TT_TT
[08:32] <Cin> loanwolf, try this out? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Breezy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[08:32] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: packages.ubuntu.com but its still a bad idea
[08:32] <wonbond> larry: press escape when grub starts to load , youll get an option to boot in recovery mode
[08:32] <NoUse> !ubuntuguide
[08:32] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is, like, totally, a bad outdated resource. Please use help.ubuntu.com
[08:32] <gostview> nickrud> well, ... let me know if you find something strange in rcS.d
[08:33] <MusicEatingPanda> gnomefreak but it is still just Xine no?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: no nothing is just one package
[08:33] <Cin> NoUse, hehe. "This page was last modified 12:55, 13 June 2006." Seems up to date to me.
[08:33] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: everything depends on other things
[08:33] <Snowfairy_> Ok... so in my quest of getting the proper screenshot via cron-job, I've started another xserver (:20)  I try import -display :20 -window root and get... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15772
[08:33] <Snowfairy_> So, how do I enable communicating to my xservers like that?  or how do I set 'protocol' that it needs?
[08:33] <NoUse> Cin use help.ubuntu.com
[08:33] <MusicEatingPanda> gnomefreak then how do i update Xine cuz 1.4.4 is unstable on 5.10
[08:34] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell MusicEatingPanda -about upgrade
[08:34] <Cin> NoUse, nice, thanks.
[08:35] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to set linux up where I can have caller id while connected so I can screen calls with dialup??
[08:35] <MusicEatingPanda> gnomefreak does that mean updateing to dapper? cuz dapper doesnt like me and im not going to it nor explaining why i wont
[08:35] <pdc> Cntryboy: I think nobody does... try google
[08:35] <Cntryboy> I have been
[08:35] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: yes
[08:35] <Cntryboy> I can't find anything
[08:35] <loanwolf> Cin, thats fore Breezy...im in dapper drake
[08:35] <Snowfairy_> Ok... so in my quest of getting the proper screenshot via cron-job, I've started another xserver (:20)  I try import -display :20 -window root and get... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15772
[08:35] <gnomefreak> MusicEatingPanda: do as you wish but im warning you its unsafe and unstable to mix packages
[08:36] <Cntryboy> can linux have two programs using both pppd processes?
[08:36] <Cntryboy> like windows..
[08:36] <Snowfairy_> How do I fix that so that I can connect to a different local x server?
[08:36] <icefeldt> my sound is totally oversteered. someone knows how to fix this? (even when its not lound it doesnt sound clear)
[08:36] <Cin> loanwolf, same applies. I'm in Dapper.
[08:36] <bcc_> can i install the latest server release using debootstrap?
[08:36] <loanwolf> k
[08:36] <Cin> loanwolf, http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/codecs.html -- Seems to be irrespective of Ubuntu version.
[08:37] <Blissex> icefeldt: http://WWW.sabi.co.UK/Notes/linuxSoundALSA.html the troubleshooting and sound quality sections...
[08:37] <BearKnuckle> I added this line to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://repo.jahshaka.org/ubuntu/dapper/binary-i386 ./ and if I want to install something this happens: Failed to fetch http://repo.jahshaka.org/ubuntu/dapper/binary-i386/binary-i386//jahshaka_2.0rc3_i386.deb  404 Not Found
[08:37] <BearKnuckle> Is there a way to correct this error?
[08:37] <Snowfairy_> Ok... so in my quest of getting the proper screenshot via cron-job, I've started another xserver (:20)  I try import -display :20 -window root and get... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15772   : How do I make this work correctly?
[08:37] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: probably.
[08:37] <Cin> BearKnuckle, did you do 'sudo apt-get update' first?
[08:38] <BearKnuckle> Cin: Yes.
[08:38] <Cin> Hehe, looks to me like it's a dud.
[08:38] <BearKnuckle> Is there something wrong in packages.gz? Because this I couldn't change...
[08:38] <JDM> anybody from Romania, pls prv
[08:38] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: look again carefully the URLs...
[08:38] <NoUse> BearKnuckle remove binary-i386 from the line
[08:39] <BearKnuckle> NoUse: But then packages.gz is not found, I already tried that...
[08:39] <BearKnuckle> Failed to fetch http://repo.jahshaka.org/ubuntu/dapper/./Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[08:40] <rshd301> Anyone using Dapper on an Apple Powerbook G4 ?
[08:40] <BearKnuckle> So where is the second "binary-i386" and the second slash coming from?
[08:40] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: perhaps reread more carefully the specs for a 'sources.list' URL/
[08:40] <NoUse> BearKnuckle the repo is malformed
[08:41] <titan_> so dapper is officially out?
[08:41] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: you need to understand what the first bit and the second bit point to.
[08:41] <Cntryboy> Any dialup users here that actually has caller id available while online? Minicom shows the caller id, but I need to figure out what and how to use a ppp program to see caller id while connected.
[08:41] <NoUse> titan_ for almost a month
[08:41] <gnomefreak> titan_: yes for a few weeks already
[08:41] <titan_> NoUse, wow,, I am behind
[08:41] <BearKnuckle> Ok, I will take a look at man sources.list
[08:41] <JDM> is anybody here using TV tuner on Ubuntu? I have a Winfast TV USB II Deluxe, and i would like to know how can I use it on ubuntu
[08:41] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: consider for example what would be different if the second bit were not './'
[08:41] <gnomefreak> 14 days
[08:42] <Blissex> BearKnuckle: the logic on how 'sources.list' URLs work is not totally obvious to see.
[08:42] <titan_> Guess I am a bit behind... anyone running it now?
[08:42] <Snowfairy_> I've started another xserver (:20)  I try import -display :20 -window root and get... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15772   : How do I make this work correctly so I can have programs connect to a different local x server than the one I'm staring at?
[08:42] <gnomefreak> titan_: most people
[08:43] <titan_> gomefreak lol, guess I am behind the curve. How easy is it to upgrade to Dapper?
[08:43] <apokryphos> titan_: very easy; check the FAQ for instructions.
[08:43] <SiliconViper_> Trivial.
[08:44] <titan_> apokryphos, ok thanks alot
[08:44] <gnomefreak> titan_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist upgrade and than once thats done gksudo "update-manager"
[08:44] <darkyoshi> Hi all, how can I make this shell script not wait for Firefox to quit before it tries to kill Firefox?: firefox gamefaqs.com && sleep 2 && pkill firefox
[08:44] <Mitja> I've used "update-rc.d <name> defaults" to set a startup script from /etc/init.d. The script was copied to many rc levels. Does it get executed as many times as the levels at booting or just once?
[08:44] <apokryphos> darkyoshi: don't use &&, use & the first time round
[08:46] <apokryphos> darkyoshi: && means "after X is done, if it finishes without an error, do..."
[08:46] <taz> heelo
[08:46] <bcc_> is there a downside in using dapper now and not breezy?
[08:46] <darkyoshi> apokryphos: Thanks!
[08:46] <apokryphos> hello
[08:46] <eXistenZ> what is the evms engine used for?
[08:46] <Snowfairy_> So... I've figured -that- out.   But, the screen capture commands don't actually capture proper data... just a jumbled mess :(
[08:46] <apokryphos> bcc_: not really.
[08:46] <bcc_> apokryphos: i see. can i use debootstrap to build a server?
[08:46] <bcc_> apokryphos: or am i stuck with the regular releases?
[08:46] <leafw> hi all. The gnome Disks Manager is listing partitions incorrectly, although through the install they were shown fine. What's up? Is there a recommended partition manager (I don't mind command line) ?
[08:47] <apokryphos> bcc_: I'm pretty sure you could, it'd be a lot easier to use the releases though.
[08:47] <gnomefreak> bcc_: dapper is a regular release
[08:47] <apokryphos> leafw: gparted is.
[08:47] <bcc_> if i use a server release, what do i specify in the apt sources?
[08:47] <larry> does rescue mode include a program called memtest?
[08:47] <leafw> apokryphos : thanks
[08:47] <apokryphos> bcc_: nothing different.
[08:47] <jubuntul> hello ,
[08:47] <bcc_> apokryphos: hmm, how does it keep them different then?
[08:47] <rshd301> Anyone using Dapper on an Apple Powerbook G4 ?
[08:47] <apokryphos> hi
[08:48] <leafw> rshd301 : me
[08:48] <jubuntul> do you know the irc.epiknet.org ??
[08:48] <apokryphos> bcc_: just installs different packages, they're all in the same archives though.
[08:48] <apokryphos> jubuntul: huh?
[08:48] <wilerson> hey people, I can't figure out why, but if I try to use sound with xmms, it works fine, but in any other application the sound gets distorted and, if I try to use xmms after another application, the sound gets distorted on xmms too
[08:48] <finger> arrrggh ... I want to kill cron ...
[08:48] <rshd301> leafw - any probs with the touchpad being too slow
[08:48] <bcc_> apokryphos: i see. so it's the same thing, but for the server release it only installs the server packages?
[08:48] <apokryphos> bcc_: exactly.
[08:48] <jubuntul> apokryphos, yeap, you see, it's a irc server, and i can't connect it
[08:48] <leafw> rshd301 : powerbook Ti 3.5 1GHz here, touchpad very nice thank you
[08:48] <apokryphos> bcc_: it uses the ubuntu-server metapackage.
[08:48] <jubuntul> do might krnow why
[08:49] <apokryphos> jubuntul: no, I don't know about it and dont' have an idea.
[08:49] <bcc_> apokryphos: ok, that makes sense. i don't really want to use debootstrap, but i don't see any other way to install on a separate drive of an existing rh installation
[08:49] <rshd301> Any ideas how to configure it's sensitivity ?
[08:49] <jubuntul> ok thank you apokryphos
[08:49] <jubuntul> bye bye
[08:49] <bcc_> apokryphos: actually, i need a completely basic sistem. no apache or anything else.
[08:49] <bcc_> apokryphos: only ssh and the base
[08:50] <leafw> rshd301 : for kubuntu, in the System Settings, go to Mouse. Don't know about ubuntu
[08:50] <apokryphos> bcc_: you can just chroot.
[08:50] <rshd301> Thanks anyway
[08:50] <apokryphos> bcc_: then install exactly what you want.
[08:50] <jubuntul> oh finaly i'll staying a little short
[08:50] <gnomefreak> rshd301: system>prefferences>mouse
[08:50] <apokryphos> argh, which would basically be debootstrap, sorry. Yes, it shouldn't be too hard.
[08:50] <bcc_> apokryphos: nah, i got a box with three drives, and i want to install ubuntu on the third drive, and then reboot into it and then re-install onto the first two drives under sofrware raid
[08:51] <brew-no> Can I run linux applications and windows applications from the same partition on an external hdd?
[08:51] <bcc_> apokryphos: is there a way i could do that with a release and not debootstrap?
[08:51] <icefeldt> brw-no: sure if iot is fat32
[08:51] <Mitja> Anyone on startup scripts ^^ ?
[08:51] <leafw> apokryphos : gparted lists the big slice that freebsd did as a single partition, but df lists the logical partitions and I can mount each one individually ... how come I can't edit each one?
[08:52] <brew-no> Can I partition a hdd from inside ubuntu?
[08:52] <brew-no> What would I use?
[08:52] <apokryphos> bcc_: I'm not really familiar with how raid works. I don't see why you couldn't do that with chroot/debootstrap though
[08:52] <apokryphos> leafw: that's very curious, I don't know why I'm afraid.
[08:52] <apokryphos> brew-no: gparted
[08:52] <apokryphos> leafw: file a bug
[08:53] <bcc_> apokryphos: that's why i'm going with debootstrap and not a release image
[08:53] <leafw> apokryphos : xD ok
[08:53] <Sphygmos> hey... what's the default documents folder on ubuntu? is it just my home directory?
[08:53] <bcc_> apokryphos: i don't think you can use a release to install on an existing box, even if onto an empty drive
[08:53] <eclypse> hey all
[08:53] <scifi> hi guys, does anyone use opera and is it performance wise better than firefox ?
[08:53] <apokryphos> bcc_: if you get the release image then you could possibly get it done with an "expert install", but not any standard way no.
[08:53] <gostview> nickrud> did you reach any ?
[08:53] <gnomefreak> Sphygmos: home dir
[08:53] <eclypse> I got a problem, guys
[08:53] <nickrud> gostview, it's something about pmount
[08:53] <bcc_> apokryphos: is there any downside in using debootstrap to do that?
[08:54] <eclypse> I have the infamous unable to mount root prior to restarting the computer
[08:54] <eclypse> after installation. fresh installation
[08:54] <apokryphos> bcc_: not really, should be more-or-less straightforward.
[08:54] <gnomefreak> eclypse: lets here it
[08:54] <apokryphos> bcc_: /msg ubotu chroot for instructions
[08:54] <eclypse> well, I tried editing my menu.lst and fstab files but they seemed to be
[08:54] <eclypse> directed to the correct hard drive
[08:54] <gostview> nickrud> so strange, ...really strange, I do the same and nothing happend to me.
[08:54] <bcc_> thanks
[08:54] <eclypse> and therese still an error.
[08:54] <leafw> took me 5 pages to find the bug reporting page for ubuntu .. .1 page for kubuntu. Ehem!
[08:54] <eclypse> and it brings up this busybox prompt
[08:54] <eclypse> is there anything I can do within this prompt?
[08:55] <nickrud> gostview, if I boot with a partition in /media , it never leaves the desktop, no matter where I mount it afterwards. If I boot with it mounted outside of /media, mounting it media doesn't put it back on the desktop. That's the behavior I've found so far.
[08:55] <Centaur5> How can I get the speaker out on an Intel 82801G sound card to work for headphones?
[08:55] <gordon1986> is there a command line app which will read 2 txt files t1 & t2, and remove all lines in t1 which are also in t2? (t2 would be left alone)
[08:55] <moquist_> Centaur5: plug them in?
[08:55] <nickrud> s/mounting it media /mounting it in media/
[08:55] <kallei> im having problems with my ipod and amararok. i can transfer tracks to the ipod and play the from the ipod in amarok. But i cannot play the songs on the ipod itself, as if the ipod "track register" doesnt get updated? any ideas?
[08:55] <Centaur5> moquist_: It doesn't work
[08:55] <rata> Centaur5, rmmod pcspkr ?
[08:56] <Centaur5> rata: Okay, so would I lsmod pcspkr if I wanted to use the laptops speakers afterwards?
[08:56] <scifi> noone ?
[08:56] <Sphygmos> is there a good tool in ubuntu for synchronizing folders? i want to periodically sync my documents folder on my windows PC
[08:56] <apokryphos> gordon1986: hm, you could use a diff to list all the differences, then, hm
[08:56] <gostview> nickrud> well, not for me, wherever I mount it, they appears where it always are, ...on my desktop.
[08:57] <SurfnKid> guys how can i mount my ntfs drive
[08:57] <SurfnKid> I try with Disk Manager or whatever that is
[08:57] <SurfnKid> and it doesnt allow
[08:57] <eclypse> guys
[08:57] <gnomefreak> ubotu forget hippies
[08:57] <ubotu> gnomefreak: i didn't have anything called 'hippies'
[08:57] <eclypse> I'm still getting that error.
[08:57] <nickrud> gostview, oh, forgot: I removed the gid=46
[08:57] <eclypse> nobody really has attempted to help lol
[08:57] <rata> Centaur5, no, modprobe instead of lsmod. lsmod is to list modules loaded, modprobe is to load modules
[08:57] <rata> Centaur5, and rmmod is to unload modules
[08:57] <eclypse> I get an error, unable to mount root file system, and it brings up a
[08:57] <eclypse> busybox prompt
[08:57] <SurfnKid> whats the normal command to mount an NTFS part.
[08:57] <Centaur5> rata: haha, yeah...that's what I meant  :)  I typed it wrong
[08:58] <rata> Centaur5, :)
[08:58] <dust> how do you alter ACPI power settings?
[08:58] <Centaur5> rata: That module doesn't exist
[08:58] <rata> dust, in /etc/acpi ?
[08:58] <scifi> hi guys, does anyone use opera and is it performance wise better than firefox ?
[08:59] <MusicEatingPanda> alsa doesnt work
[08:59] <MusicEatingPanda> v/v
[08:59] <LjL> scifi: no, and yes
[08:59] <asabil> eclypse, could you show me your menu.lst ?
[08:59] <eclypse> no, because it wont boot up lol
[08:59] <larry> so I'm trying to get to rescue mode from the DVD, I hit escape to get to the text menu, type rescue, and it just says could not find kernal image rescue
[08:59] <rata> Centaur5, "pcspkr" ?
[08:59] <eclypse> I'm gonna have to re-install ubuntu again just to get it to boot up
[08:59] <scifi> LjL: so worth me trying ?
[08:59] <Ayabara> what do you guys use to monitor cpuload, ram usage and such?
[08:59] <eclypse> unless you can figure something out that I can do within this busy box
[08:59] <eclypse> prompt
[08:59] <s|k> whenever they have a new kernel update I have to reinstall my nvidia driver, I wish they would stop updating the kernel, it's not a beta anymore
[08:59] <MusicEatingPanda> would anyone know why alsa doesnt work on a fresh ubuntu install?
[09:00] <dust> rata, i'm going to check that out thanks.
[09:00] <LjL> scifi: it's a nice browser. i don't like its being proprietary, but it's still nice
[09:00] <MusicEatingPanda> ailed to construct test pipeline for 'ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture'
[09:00] <Centaur5> rata: No, lsmod | grep pcspkr doesn't show anything
[09:00] <rata> dust, in is very common for configuration files tu be in /etc
[09:00] <gostview> nickrud>going to eliminate gid=46... however another strange think is the partition of /winxp (hda1) it appear with a name that it as given by itself (/mnt/winxp instead "WINXP")
[09:00] <asabil> eclypse, reboot
[09:00] <scifi> LjL: what u mean by proprietary ?
[09:00] <asabil> and in grub
[09:00] <LjL> scifi: closed source.
[09:00] <eclypse> k...
[09:00] <asabil> type e
[09:00] <bcc_> i'm getting an error about locales, but i can't even run gpkg-reconfigure locales. what else can i try?
[09:01] <asabil> this will give you the possibility to edit the menu.lst
[09:01] <eclypse> ok
[09:01] <rata> Centaur5, mmm, perhaps yo dont compile it as a module and you put it inside the kernel ?
[09:01] <eclypse> it looks liek its showing the menu.lst
[09:01] <asabil> check that a correct root=... param is give to the kernel
[09:01] <dust> rata, yeah i guess i should know that. the one draw back of a fully GUI computer is that i don't know what is where and what it is doing.
[09:02] <rata> Centaur5, i dont know the defaults of ubuntu kernels. I use debian, an now it is compiled as a module, but before it was insede the kernel... perhaps it is that
[09:02] <jtj> i have something odd happening with my software update. One will not install. I am new but i chatted with someone yesterday in another room and he gave me a fix but now its back again. the update is nvidia kernel common. yestterday this guy said it was sthing to do with sources getting stuck in packages or something. is thisa bug? is it sthing i need to fix?
[09:03] <scifi> LjL: the download page only seems to have the shared Qt version, but apprently the static version is faster and stable, any idea where i can get hold of it ?
[09:03] <eclypse> ok
[09:03] <Centaur5> rata: Well I tried finding out what other people have done to fix it but they had the problem that the laptop speakers didn't work, only their headphones.  They had a simple way of fixing it but nobody had my problem.
[09:03] <asabil> eclypse, if you fix it
[09:03] <NoUse> jtj just run 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-kernel-common' and it should pull it down
[09:03] <asabil> you have to edit the menu.lst
[09:03] <jtj> no i tried that yesterday
[09:03] <NoUse> jtj if not, pastebin the error
[09:03] <eclypse> I did
[09:03] <eclypse> just now
[09:03] <asabil> changes in this grib boot are not permanent
[09:03] <jtj> he made me edit a pkg file or sthing
[09:03] <eclypse> heres the mounting errors...
[09:03] <NoUse> jtj link
[09:04] <rata> Centaur5, wait, what is speaker ? (sorry, i do not speak english native :)
[09:04] <jtj> nouse sorry link?
[09:04] <LjL> scifi: no. are you sure that's true? using shared libraries is generally better than static libraries
[09:04] <eclypse> 'mount: Mounting /dev/sda on /root failed: no such device'
[09:04] <NoUse> jtj the link to your pastebin posting
[09:04] <asabil> eclypse, are you sure it's /dev/sda
[09:04] <jtj> i cant recall
[09:04] <eclypse> 'mount: Mounting on /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or
[09:04] <eclypse> directory
[09:04] <jtj> what do you want me to post?
[09:04] <eclypse> yes
[09:04] <jtj> paste rather
[09:04] <asabil> i'd say it's /dev/sda2
[09:04] <eclypse> I'll try now
[09:04] <rata> Centaur5, the "beep" ? or "common" sound where you hear music, for example ?
[09:05] <nickrud> gostview, it also uses the mountpoint here for the label.
[09:05] <NoUse> jtj the error you are getting
[09:05] <finger> my user crontab isn't running ... wtf ???
[09:05] <NoUse> jtj also, please put my nick in messages intended for me
[09:05] <scifi> LjL: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser?highlight=%28opera%29 , in the "installing..." paragraph he says "Static may be faster and more stable, at least it is in one long time Opera fan's experience"
[09:05] <eclypse> nopet
[09:05] <eclypse> hat wasen't it either
[09:05] <eclypse> that*
[09:06] <asabil> hmmm
[09:06] <asabil> in the busybox
[09:06] <jtj> oh i can type tht e: the package index files are corrupted. no file name: field for pc=ackage nvidia....    E: unnable to lock the download directroy
[09:06] <asabil> could you try to mount the root partition ?
[09:06] <gordon1986> is there a command line app which will read 2 txt files t1 & t2, and remove all lines in t1 which are also in t2? (t2 would be left alone)
[09:06] <eclypse> with what commands?
[09:06] <gostview> nickrud> I've yet tried to modify the label in mountpoint (you mean fstab?)
[09:06] <LjL> scifi: "The static version is a larger download, and it uses bitmap (i.e. not antialiased) fonts on menus and in the filechooser. The dynamic build integrates with the system, thus it uses whatever antialiasing setting you have for other Qt applications."
[09:06] <Angel_Dex> would anyone know why alsa doesnt work on a fresh ubuntu install?
[09:06] <asabil> eclypse, let's try to fix this
[09:07] <LjL> scifi: that alone would make me use the shared version. anyway, i'm not sure how "one long time Opera fan's experience"'s is worth much
[09:07] <asabil> is you hd SATA or ide ?
[09:07] <NoUse> jtj have you run apt-get update?
[09:07] <Therx> how can u get my network cards to work? i only need one of two, they are 3c509 and ewrk3. this is on Hoary Hedgehog. the 3c509 is detected and apparently "up" but doesn't work, the ewrk3 won't load and modprobe gives an "Input/output error" when i do it manually from the root terminal
[09:07] <eclypse> its a laptop hard drive
[09:07] <jtj> yeah
[09:07] <eclypse> I'm pretty sure its SATA, but I'm not sure.
[09:07] <scifi> LjL: ok i'll go with the default shared version :)
[09:07] <asabil> eclypse, type those commands in the busybox :
[09:07] <asabil> dmesg | grep disk
[09:07] <Gobfrey> can anyone help me get Samba working with VMWare?  It was working, but it stopped.  I don't think I changed anything.  Then I restarted, but it still doesn't work.
[09:07] <jtj> well llok yesterday this guy knew what he was doing and he was with me for bout 90 mins b4 he fixed it. he had me edit a archive dapper pkges file
[09:07] <nickrud> gostview, I mean it follows the mountpoing for the partition: /windows or /media/hda1
[09:08] <nickrud> erm mount point
[09:08] <finger> user's cron runs as root right ?
[09:08] <eclypse>  /bin/sh: dmesg: not found
[09:08] <asabil> oh
[09:08] <asabil> it's not a busybox ?
[09:08] <Angel_Dex> !alsa
[09:08] <ubotu> somebody said alsa was http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=32063, see also !dmix
[09:08] <eclypse> it isb usy box.
[09:09] <eclypse> it says
[09:09] <gostview> nickrud> ok, tnx for help,  bye... I'm going outside for eat: nice girlfriend wait to me :)))
[09:09] <eclypse> BusyBox v1.01
[09:09] <charlesJacobs> how do I fix this error? "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." I just installed the latest nvidia proprietary drivers
[09:09] <nickrud> gostview, I used to understand mounting, but this desktop fancy desktop stuff has me stumped so far. Enjoy
[09:09] <NoUse> jtj make sure you don't have another copy of apt-get, synaptic or aptitude running and then 'sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock'
[09:09] <finger> user's cron runs as root right ?
[09:09] <NoUse> jtj then sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:10] <eclypse> asabil you still there?
[09:10] <asabil> yes wait checking
[09:10] <eclypse> k
[09:10] <zodo> Hey folks...I keep having an issue where some application (I think amaroK) goes wild on my hard drive, doing something, bringing the whole system to a crawl.  When it happens, is there some command I can run to see what applications are doing what with my HD?
[09:10] <judah> finger: they should run as the user who submited the job to cron.
[09:10] <asabil> could you tell me what you did before getting this ?
[09:10] <titan_> what else do I need besides gcc to compile source?
[09:10] <eclypse> umm
[09:10] <judah> !build-essential
[09:10] <ubotu> from memory, build-essential is a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[09:10] <eclypse> I installed ubuntu...lol
[09:10] <NoUse> titan_ install build-essential
[09:10] <asabil> nothing else ?
[09:11] <eclypse> nope.
[09:11] <knight488> can someone help me with a ndiswrapper issue?
[09:11] <eclypse> I had to add the root=/dev/sda1 to get it to isntall however.
[09:11] <eclypse> to the install options
[09:11] <Sphygmos> hey is there a way to get wma support in rhythmbox?
[09:11] <Scorpmoon> how do I setup my keyboard from console?
[09:11] <Gambit-> hey chaps, where's the correct place to put modprobe commands so they get run on bootup?
[09:11] <Gambit-> this is in 5.10
[09:11] <Scorpmoon> i can't access certain chars
[09:11] <titan_> Thanks
[09:11] <fatejudger> is there a changelog available for the new kernel updates?
[09:11] <asabil> oki

[09:12] <titan_> thanks
[09:12] <asabil> eclypse, sur you have a busybox ?
[09:12] <|lostbyte|> Is an ad-hoc network limited to one computer ? or does it work like an access-point ?
[09:12] <burgermann> Hi, my USB doesn't work. Everytime I plug a device Ubuntu crashes, how can that be?
[09:12] <eclypse> I have no idea
[09:12] <zodo> lostbyte: Ad-hoc is just between two computers.
[09:12] <eclypse> this is EXACTLY what it says the prompt is
[09:12] <judah> |lostbyte|: depends.. you can have multiple associations to an ad-hoc network.
[09:12] <betascad> 'sera
[09:13] <judah> |lostbyte|: see www.olsr.org
[09:13] <judah> zodo: that's not really true.
[09:13] <eclypse> 'BusyBox v1.01 (Debian 1:1.01-4ubuntu3) Built-in shell (ash)
[09:13] <zodo> Hah, I guess not.
[09:13] <jtj> ok it was in /var/lib/apt/lists and then it was archive.ubunut...mainbinary pacakages or sthing in tht directory we opened a few

[09:13] <judah> meshgoodness...
[09:13] <|lostbyte|> judah, If i make pc1 ad-hoc, can pc1 and pc2 connect to it simentaniously.
[09:13] <jtj> nouse ok sorry thanks
[09:13] <|lostbyte|> ok
[09:13] <knight488> anyone know why it is when I try to add a driver in ndiswrapper, nothing gets added?
[09:13] <larry> what is the default editor in rescue mode
[09:14] <asabil> eclypse, try : busybox fdisk -l
[09:14] <judah> |lostbyte|: if you us a routing protocol like olsrd yes. no problem.
[09:14] <nickrud> larry, nano
[09:14] <jtj> nouse do you want me to repeat previous
[09:14] <|lostbyte|> judah, ok :) will read on it. Thank..
[09:14] <gavagai> i was about ready to order that $120 router and now i don't have to.  :)
[09:14] <eclypse> fdisk: applet not found
[09:14] <Warp2> hello all.  There are a number of gnome-related updates that I see today ... however I see no mention of them anywhere on ubuntu.com/ubuntuforums
[09:14] <gnomefreak> nickrud: thought it was gedit since rescue mode is gui
[09:15] <Warp2> is it simply an upgrade from 2.14.1 to 2.14.2?
[09:15] <scifi> LjL: Sweet, defo faster , like it :D
[09:15] <larry> I didn't think this would be that frustrating. When I try to nano /etc/group it says Error opening terminal: bterm
[09:15] <nickrud> gnomefreak, there's a difference between rescue & recovery?
[09:15] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[09:15] <Warp2> seemed strange so soon after the release
[09:15] <gnomefreak> i miss read it than
[09:15] <wilerson> Guys, is there some way to list packages I installed on a specific date?
[09:15] <nickrud> gnomefreak, no, he said rescue, I assumed recovery. If there is a diff ...
[09:16] <asabil> eclypse, could you type : busybox
[09:16] <gavagai> larry, if you are using a specific terminal (bterm?) try a different one
[09:16] <asabil> and give me (PM) the list of commands available
[09:16] <larry> I'm in text rescue mode
[09:16] <larry> I didn't specify anything
[09:16] <gnomefreak> nickrud: rescue mode is when you use the install cd to rescue partitions isnt recovery the root gui that you boot to
[09:16] <mooomin> hi all
[09:17] <gavagai> larry, can you try using vim instead of nano
[09:17] <mooomin> any xen users aroudn ere?
[09:17] <scifi> LjL: is it me or is the white background to web-pages SO bright ^^
[09:17] <NoUse> jtj no its just easier to find when its highlighted
[09:17] <Huh1> hey dudeds. I installed lm-sensors so I could see the heat of my cpu. somehow it doesn't work. in my panel is shows to me: No sensors found. how do I configure that
[09:17] <larry> I tried that first, it doesn't work
[09:17] <eclypse> BusyBox v1.01 (Debian 1:1.01-4ubuntu3) multi-call binary
[09:17] <nickrud> gnomefreak, recovery I'm sure is the root no-login term from grub. The install cd rescue I've never used, didn't even know it was there.
[09:17] <larry> it says terminal isn't fully functional and I can't navigate the cursor through the document
[09:17] <eclypse> then it tells me the usage and what not.
[09:17] <gnomefreak> larry: it works you have to use the right keybindings bvefore you can edit it
[09:17] <asabil> eclypse, availabe commands ?
[09:18] <asabil> Currently defined functions:
[09:18] <eclypse> theres alot of them lol
[09:18] <jtj> NoUse ok
[09:18] <eclypse> do you want me to type all of them?
[09:18] <eclypse> lol
[09:18] <gnomefreak> nickrud: it runs you through the basic install than asks what partition you want to fix
[09:18] <knight488> anyone know why it is when I try to add a driver in ndiswrapper, nothing gets added?
[09:18] <eclypse> asabil, can we talk in private so I we don't have to deal with all these
[09:18] <eclypse> other peeps talking
[09:18] <eclypse> ?
[09:18] <asabil> okidoki
[09:19] <larry> gnomefreak: what key bindings?
[09:19] <asabil> but make it quick i have to leave in 5 minutes
[09:19] <Ayabara> I try to install a vlc nightly build and running apt-get update I get "W: GPG error: http://nightlies.videolan.org  Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C367D8B981CACA84". ehhh... why?
[09:19] <gavagai> larry, what is echo $TERM
[09:19] <gnomefreak> larry: <i> is to edit it but i wouldnt use vi/vim until you learn it first
[09:19] <NoUse> jtj lets try this 'sudo rm /var/cache/apt/* -r && sudo mkdir -p /var/cache/apt/archives/partial' then sudo apt-get update
[09:19] <Therx> anyone used a ewrk3 card on ubuntu?
[09:19] <WarpX> so nobody knows what all of today's dapper updates are?
[09:19] <devscot1> Hey I was wondering if anyone uses the Basic stamp(microcontroller) from parallax.com?
[09:20] <funkja> How do I autmatically mount a partition on startup?
[09:20] <gavagai> larry, i'm not sure i think he meant to say maybe you don't know how to move around in vim or something.
[09:20] <wonbond> i just installed kubuntu 64bit and got the fglrx as root and it wont let me log into kde as a user , only as root from recovery mode , can somone help me
[09:20] <gavagai> i don't know what keybindings have to do with this
[09:20] <NoUse> WarpX security fixes
[09:20] <WarpX> nouse: I see 49mb of gnome-related updates, too
[09:20] <veleno> hello. i'm trying to install Trac on a breezy installation. when it come to setup apache, it requires to setup a virtual host ( http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/TracOnUbuntu step2), but i don't have a domain, i only have a public ip..anyone can help me?
[09:21] <larry> I use vim every day
[09:21] <chopchop_> how do i set keyboard interface?
[09:21] <vjt> larry, me too!
[09:21] <eclypse> I guess we gotta talk in this..damnit
[09:21] <vjt> larry, but 3 or 4 days ago, for the first time in 8 years of vim use, it looped.
[09:21] <NoUse> WarpX probably security updates
[09:22] <vjt> larry, it was really an epocal event.
[09:22] <NoUse> WarpX you can look at the changelogs for the packages if you really need to know
[09:22] <WarpX> there is no security announcement (or any announcement) for these packages
[09:22] <asabil> why ?
[09:22] <larry> echo $TERM   prints 'bterm'
[09:22] <WarpX> there are no changelogs, either
[09:22] <eclypse> its not working apparently.
[09:22] <WarpX> at least, throught update-manager
[09:22] <NoUse> WarpX must be a conspiracy
[09:22] <eclypse> anyways
[09:22] <eclypse> can you help me before you leave?
[09:22] <Huh1> I installed lm-sensors and another app that would display my cpu info to the panel, but all I get is "No sensors found" I have a amd athlon xp 2,2+ cpu and a asus a7v333 (via kt333 chipset) motherboard
[09:22] <asabil> i try
[09:22] <eclypse> I really want to get this solved so I can get on to doing other things.
[09:22] <asabil> just give me infos
[09:22] <eclypse> all the commands?
[09:22] <NoUse> WarpX look at http://packages.ubuntu.com
[09:22] <chopchop_> how do i set keyboard layout?
[09:23] <ry> does anyone know how to restore the windows boot loader to MBR after a dapper install?
[09:23] <asabil> eclypse
[09:23] <asabil> ls /mnt
[09:23] <sppt> hello
[09:24] <eclypse> ls: /mnt: no such file or directory
[09:24] <NoUse> ry boot off your windows CD and run fixmbr
[09:24] <larry> I think I'm just going to ditch the rescue mode, boot from a live cd, mount the partition and edit the damn file. I've wasted too much time on trying to get rescue mode to work
[09:24] <wilerson> ry: boot on windows and then use fdisk /mbr
[09:24] <gavagai> larry, i would try set TERM=xterm  or something like that, just because bterm sounds weird to me
[09:24] <asabil> eclypse : cd / && mkdir test
[09:24] <WarpX> the packages I see listed when I do apt-get upgrade are NEWER than packgaes in the website
[09:24] <DarkElf109> Does anybody in here know how to enable sound or local mountable media in LTSP?
[09:24] <sppt> my 'su' command told me that i have the wrong password typed, but i typed the right one, what is wrong? :S
[09:24] <NoUse> WarpX probably hasn't been updated yet
[09:24] <eclypse> ok
[09:24] <asabil> eclypse, mount /dev/sda1 /test && ls /test
[09:24] <gavagai> i have never heard of bterm
[09:24] <DarkElf109> sppt: Unless you've made a root user, you can't su
[09:25] <DarkElf109> sppt: Use sudo -s
[09:25] <sppt> ok
[09:25] <ry> ok thx NoUse and wilerson I'll try (one of) those.... and download the alternate iso for dapper ;)
[09:25] <eclypse> umm
[09:25] <sppt> how do i make myself a root user(i do have the password)
[09:25] <bcc_> hi guys, do i need an smp kernel for a pentium d? it's dual core, but i'm not sure if linux considers it as two cpus
[09:25] <WarpX> is anyone else running dapper and seen ~50mb worth of updates today?
[09:25] <jtj> NoUse that worked OK
[09:25] <NoUse> ry any reason you want to use the Windows boot loader?
[09:25] <asabil> eclypse, what ?
[09:25] <NoUse> jtj ok
[09:25] <eclypse> [4395797.036000]  cramfs: wrong magic
[09:25] <funkja> Which audio player do you guys use?
[09:25] <sppt> xmms
[09:25] <asabil> oO
[09:25] <eclypse> mount: Mounting /dev/sda1 on /test failed: Invalid arguement
[09:26] <jtj> NoUse is that it fixed? will it be back tomorrow?
[09:26] <asabil> eclypse, having some cramfs disks ?
[09:26] <eclypse> what?
[09:26] <ry> NoUse, i want grub on a floppy so if need be i can remove the dapper hdd and let the windows setup remain unscathed.
[09:26] <eclypse> I have no idea what your asking lol
[09:26] <wilerson> ry: try NoUse suggestion, I don't know if mine works on win2k+
[09:26] <asabil> ok i guess you don't
[09:26] <NoUse> ry ah ok
[09:26] <NoUse> jtj I've never had that happen to me in 5 years of using debian based systems :-) so I don't know
[09:26] <eclypse> hmm
[09:26] <Huh1> I installed lm-sensors and another app that would display my cpu info to the panel, but all I get is "No sensors found" I have a amd athlon xp 2,2+ cpu and a asus a7v333 (via kt333 chipset) motherboard
[09:26] <ry> i've never installed grub onto a floppy after the OS is already installed, but i imagine its possible?
[09:26] <jtj> NoUse ah OK, well thanks for the fix
[09:27] <asabil> keep trying with other possibilities
[09:27] <eclypse> when I do mount /dev/sda it says 'cannot read /etc/fstab : no such file or
[09:27] <eclypse> directory
[09:27] <asabil> the same command line, but try with different devices
[09:27] <DarkElf109> ry: grub-floppy is your friend =)
[09:27] <asabil> eclypse, that's normal
[09:27] <ry> DarkElf109, thank you :)
[09:27] <asabil> you have to specify a mount dir
[09:27] <eclypse> what?
[09:27] <eclypse> oh
[09:27] <eclypse> umm...
[09:27] <eclypse> example?
[09:27] <asabil> eclypse, it's of the form of : mount <device> <directory>
[09:28] <eclypse> oic
[09:28] <asabil> like : mount /dev/sda1 /test
[09:28] <eclypse> so it would be...
[09:28] <eclypse> ic
[09:28] <asabil> that's why i made you create the /test directory
[09:28] <DarkElf109> Does anybody in here know how to enable sound or local mountable media in LTSP?
[09:28] <sppt> how do i make myself a root user?
[09:28] <jrib> ubotu: tell sppt abotu root
[09:28] <gnomefreak> sppt: sudo -i
[09:28] <asabil> sppt, add yourself to the wheels group
[09:29] <eclypse> lol
[09:29] <sppt> thats more gentoo-alike
[09:29] <eclypse> argh
[09:29] <eclypse> it keeps saying invalid arguement
[09:29] <asabil> what eclypse ?
[09:29] <eclypse> for example
[09:29] <eclypse> mount /dev/sda /test
[09:29] <sppt> *sigh* where did my screen resolution setting go in KDE?
[09:29] <eclypse> it says mount: Mounting /dev/sda on /test failed: Invalid arguement
[09:30] <Gambit-> anyone know off hand how long erasing a dat72 tape cart takes?
[09:30] <asabil> eclypse, ls /proc
[09:30] <billybennett> anyone have any idea why my DVDRW drive is suddenly only running at 4x instead of 8x?
[09:31] <eclypse> want me to tell you exactly whats in it?
[09:31] <eclypse> it found it.
[09:31] <asabil> oki
[09:31] <asabil> type mount
[09:31] <asabil> alone without arguments
[09:31] <eclypse> k
[09:31] <eclypse> it said the following...
[09:31] <asabil> this will give you the list of mounted thingies
[09:31] <ompaul> how does one edit the properties of the "Places" part of the menu so that the history is not visible
[09:31] <qmf> i've been looking around for some xgl/compiz information but can only find tech heavy articles, does nayone know of a good wiki about these packages? i'd like to know more about them
[09:31] <eclypse> none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
[09:32] <eclypse> none on /proc type prot (rw, nodiratime)
[09:32] <kallei> if i want to change some icons, say example the icon representing my portable music player (an iPod Nano). where do i place these icon files i download?
[09:32] <eclypse> udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
[09:32] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell qmf -about xgl
[09:32] <qmf> the ubotu thing doesn't seem to work
[09:32] <WarpX> I can't believe so many people use compiz ... it's a functionality wasteland
[09:32] <Gullstad> ubotu tell Gullstad about wireless
[09:33] <asabil> okidoki
[09:33] <WarpX> even metacity, which is pretty minimalistic, has buckets more features than compiz
[09:33] <eclypse> lol.
[09:33] <asabil> eclypse, ls /dev/sd*
[09:33] <qmf> metacity? (sorry i'm very new to this. it's my second attempt at switching to linux. this time it's going very well)
[09:33] <asabil> and ls /dev/hd*
[09:34] <WarpX> metacity is the default window manager (program that displays titlebars and lets you move around windows) for gnome
[09:34] <eclypse>  /dev/sda5 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sda
[09:34] <qmf> ah
[09:34] <gnuaha7> WarpX: have you see the Xgl Fuctions with metacity???
[09:34] <eclypse> ls: /dev/hd*: no such file or directory
[09:34] <WarpX> gnuaha7: no, I briefly tried to play with it but was unsuccessful
[09:34] <wilerson> is there some way to list packages I installed on a specific date?
[09:34] <qmf> so i should be looking for metacity themeing tutorials a opposed to gnome tutorials?
[09:35] <WarpX> I'd rather wait for aiglx I suppose
[09:35] <asabil> eclypse, mount /dev/sda5 /test
[09:35] <gnuaha7> WarpX: i remember you that Xgl runs with Compiz...
[09:35] <asabil> eclypse, sorry guy i have to go
[09:35] <eclypse> invalid arguement.
[09:35] <eclypse> damnit
[09:35] <asabil> try all sda*
[09:35] <eclypse> :(
[09:35] <asabil> good luck
[09:35] <asabil> i am very sorry
[09:35] <eclypse> *sighs* k
[09:35] <DarkElf109> Does anybody in here know how to enable sound or local mountable media in LTSP?
[09:35] <WarpX> you remember me?! this is the first or second time I've IRCd in years
[09:35] <asabil> i'll be back in a hour
[09:36] <eclypse> ok..
[09:36] <eclypse> they all get invalid arguements
[09:36] <eclypse> I think we're missing somethign int he command or something
[09:36] <eclypse> in the*
[09:36] <gnuaha7> WarpX: sorry the sentences was: remember that...
[09:36] <gnuaha7> WarpX: the reason for the many users of compiz is that those peoples uses Xgl
[09:37] <eclypse> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
[09:37] <eclypse> I should do?
[09:37] <WarpX> yes, but I cannot believe that so many people can use compiz on a day-to-day basic
[09:37] <WarpX> basis
[09:37] <scifi> LjL: when i start up opera it opens a tab with "opera:illegal-url-0" in the header as well as my home-page, any idea how to stop that ?
[09:37] <eclypse> !xgl
[09:37] <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
[09:37] <WarpX> it's a nice demo/toy but it doesn't have much functionality
[09:37] <WarpX> I certainly couldn't use it every day
[09:37] <eclypse> !busybox
[09:37] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, eclypse
[09:37] <LjL> scifi: does setting a home page in the preferences help?
[09:37] <billybennett> anyone know why my 8xDL DVDWR suddently started to only write at 4x?
[09:38] <eclypse> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
[09:38] <eclypse> I should do?
[09:38] <eclypse> has anyone been listening to my problem and does anyone have any idea what
[09:38] <eclypse> I should do?
[09:38] <DarkElf109> WarpX: If you have ADD< it'll keep you at your computer...implicit functionality =)
[09:38] <scifi> LjL: no ive done that already, it opens my home page but also a second page with that funny url
[09:38] <LjL> scifi: i'd have no idea
[09:38] <scifi> ok
[09:39] <gnuaha7> WarpX: SUSE 10.1 comes with Xgl and MANY people use it... me too can't use Xgl day-to-day
[09:39] <WarpX> it sounds like it's still effort to get xgl working under suse
[09:39] <eclypse> is it true that XGL under some cases makes ubuntu more responsive?
[09:40] <eclypse> err, gnome
[09:40] <WarpX> I would suspect that the kind of people who can make it work are the kind of people that can read a doc ... therefore I would expect they're the kind of people who desire more functionality :)
[09:40] <gnuaha7> WarpX: but if some body tell you that WinBugs looks better than any linux... show to him Xgl and you will feel very good with hes eyes
[09:40] <KuLover> For a storage drive formated at reiserfs, would I want to make it an extended? or primary?
[09:40] <Centaur5> Does anybody know how I can get the headphone jack on my laptop's Intel 82801G sound card?
[09:40] <WarpX> I think clearlooks/metacity looks better than xgl/compiz
[09:40] <billybennett> What do you guys think of NVU ?
[09:40] <WarpX> personally <shrug>
[09:41] <quiet> does linux have anything like bsd device hints... where you can disable certain hardware when booting the installer CD... i.e. - disable the PS/2 mouse port?
[09:41] <gnuaha7> WarpX: or people that use Gnu/linux to play games and play films and music... but oviusly don't know what is VIM, Anjuta or GCC .P
[09:41] <NoUse> eclypse yeah I think it can
[09:41] <DarkElf109> KuLover: Unless you have a whole bunch of partitions on the drive (more than 4), go with Primary
[09:41] <titan_> how do I make a file like a text document from the terminal?
[09:41] <aivars> join mips
[09:42] <eclypse> anyone have any idea how to fix the infamous mounting root issue? lol
[09:42] <eclypse> I just want to be able to bloody boot up for christ sake
[09:42] <KuLover> DarkElf109 Thanks a bunch! off to format!
[09:42] <eclypse> because I still have many more problems I have to resolve.
[09:42] <gnuaha7> WarpX: if you don't understand me... sorry i'm a spanish-speaking
[09:42] <DarkElf109> titan_: To create a blank file, 'touch filename'. For editing, use 'vim filename' or 'nano filename' or 'emacs filename'
[09:42] <WarpX> gnuaha7: I understand you perfectly!
[09:43] <WarpX> it just surprises me that style-over-substance is so common
[09:43] <eclypse>  Oi!
[09:43] <knight488> after I get my WLAN card working, what program do I use to find avalible accesspoints?
[09:43] <WarpX> it *is* a lot of style, though, I must admit :)
[09:43] <eclypse> guys, I need help here.
[09:44] <gnuaha7> eclypse: whats happend??
[09:44] <eclypse> I am unable to mount root
[09:44] <NoUse> knight488 I thin wifi-radar will do that
[09:45] <eclypse> see, when ti attempts to mount root
[09:45] <eclypse> I get a busy box prompt
[09:45] <eclypse> and it tells me it cannot find /dev/sda
[09:45] <eclypse> dispite its existance
[09:45] <LjL> WarpX: not just style. you might say that the compiz "tricks" are just style (but they do have some real uses anyway) -- but the concept itself of using 3D acceleration to draw your desktop is interesting. while 2D acceleration hasn't been looked at very carefully later, 3D acceleration definitely has, and offloading some/most/all of the work of drawking the GUI to the graphics card is certainly an interesting concept.
[09:45] <WarpX> eclypse: what change did you make to cause this to start happening?
[09:45] <balduran> hallo
[09:45] <eclypse> I installed ubuntu...lmao
[09:45] <eclypse> fresh install
[09:45] <WarpX> ljl: NO DOUBT
[09:45] <WarpX> ljl: but, for now, compiz is so limited that it seems like it's just a toy
[09:46] <titan_> Thanks Darkelf109
[09:46] <LjL> WarpX: true. hey, every program has an alpha stage.
[09:46] <knight488> NoUse thanks, looking into it now
[09:46] <mooomin> anyone ehre use ubuntu for work?
[09:46] <Huh1> I installed lm-sensors and another app that would display my cpu info to the panel, but all I get is "No sensors found" I have a amd athlon xp 2,2+ cpu and a asus a7v333 (via kt333 chipset) motherboard
[09:46] <eclypse> warp, can you help me ?
[09:46] <WarpX> ljl: I was simply commenting that it surprised me that so many people were using it
[09:46] <eclypse> warpx, can you help me please
[09:46] <WarpX> eclypse: that sounds like a tricky one to diagnose over irc
[09:46] <gnuaha7> LjL: for me the alpha stages aren't for give a "promotional movie" as the 8 worl wonderfull
[09:47] <eclypse> wlelt
[09:47] <WarpX> after a fresh install you cannot boot the os?!
[09:47] <eclypse> here really is no other way.
[09:47] <eclypse> seriously
[09:47] <eclypse> there*
[09:47] <WarpX> seems unlikely
[09:47] <eclypse> yep
[09:47] <eclypse> its bull shit
[09:47] <cyphase> Woohoo! It's my birthday!
[09:47] <eclypse> apparently its a widespread problem
[09:47] <eclypse> heres what it says when I get the busybox prompt
[09:47] <eclypse> this is after it fials to mount root
[09:47] <WarpX> this is the first I've heard of it and I read quite a few ubuntu-related sites
[09:47] <WarpX> is there a bug report?
[09:47] <eclypse> 'mount :mounting /dev/sda on /root failed: no such device
[09:47] <eclypse> yeah, but nobody responded to it it seems.
[09:48] <richiefrich> u need a number
[09:48] <gnuaha7> eclypse: try bootin with a live cd
[09:48] <wonbond> i just installed kubuntu 64bit and got the fglrx as root and it wont let me log into kde as a user , only as root from recovery mode , can somone help me
[09:48] <WarpX> do you have a scsi/usb device?
[09:48] <eclypse> like the most common fix is to edit the fstab
[09:48] <eclypse> but it doesnt' seem to be working
[09:48] <eclypse> no
[09:48] <WarpX> what is your /dev/sda?
[09:48] <Blissex> cyphase: here Woohoo! It's my birthday! looked like a reply to its bull shit, but have a nice day.
[09:48] <eclypse> I don't have any of that
[09:48] <richiefrich> /dev/sda    <-- can't mount that
[09:48] <gnuaha7> eclypse: give me the exit of an fdis -l
[09:48] <eclypse> its a hard drive...lol
[09:48] <richiefrich> unless it's a CD/DVD drive
[09:48] <WarpX> sata?
[09:48] <eclypse> I think so
[09:48] <richiefrich> u need a number
[09:48] <charlesJacobs> how do I fix this error? "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." I just installed the latest nvidia proprietary drivers
[09:48] <richiefrich> /dev/sda1
[09:48] <charlesJacobs> how do I fix this error? "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." I just installed the latest nvidia proprietary drivers
[09:48] <richiefrich> /dev/sda2

[09:49] <richiefrich> it'll tell u if u have partitnions on it
[09:49] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_ on what drive ?
[09:49] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_  hd1 ?
[09:49] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_  hda1 ?
[09:49] <C_REATiVE_> hda
[09:49] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_  grub
[09:50] <eclypse> this is a completely fresh install
[09:50] <richiefrich> root (hd0,0)
[09:50] <eclypse> it installed successfully
[09:50] <gnuaha7> eclypse: on shipitcd.ubuntu.com they send you a pack of one cd for install and anothe for live... do you have something like that or maybe a knoppix???
[09:50] <richiefrich> setup (hd0)
[09:50] <richiefrich> quit
[09:50] <C_REATiVE_> but how can i make a windows boot setup
[09:50] <eclypse> I'm gonna attempt to boot in recovery mode again
[09:50] <gnuaha7> richiefrich: i thought that fdisk -l but if you dont have root i may not boot
[09:50] <eclypse> *sigh*
[09:50] <qmf> i've come across a bit of a problem. i want to add all my music to rhythmbox music player. all my music is a share from my serve rcalled servermusic which contains all the folders of my music. but i can't seem to just add the servermusic share. i can only add the folders individually. anyone know a workaround?
[09:51] <richiefrich> gnuaha7 ?
[09:51] <richiefrich> gnuaha7  fdisk -l  lists all HDD
[09:51] <eclypse> omfg
[09:51] <eclypse> recovery mode doesn't even work anymore
[09:51] <eclypse> damnit
[09:51] <Blissex> qmf: recursive add? All players have it (I hope).
[09:51] <eclypse> this is insane
[09:51] <eclypse> I can't even bloody boot up!
[09:51] <gnuaha7> richiefrich: yes i know
[09:51] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_ thats easy whats the windows partitntion ?
[09:51] <WarpX> eclypse: since it's a fresh install, perhaps try to reinstall?
[09:52] <richiefrich> C_REATiVE_  hda?  what number or is it hdb ?
[09:52] <eclypse> LMAO
[09:52] <eclypse> omg
[09:52] <gnuaha7> eclypse: that sound like that you are going to reinstall
[09:52] <eclypse> I already TRIED THAT
[09:52] <eclypse> bloody twice
[09:52] <qmf> Blissex, doesn't seem to have it. i changed the libry location to the servermusic share and ticked watch for new music but it still doesn't add anything
[09:52] <eclypse> I reinstalled fucking twice dude
[09:52] <raptros-v76> eclypse: ok. heres an idea. do ls /dev|grep hda
[09:52] <raptros-v76> does that come out with anything
[09:52] <eclypse> it showed nothing.
[09:52] <C_REATiVE_> hda3
[09:53] <raptros-v76> do the same thing except with sda
[09:53] <NoUse> !language
[09:53] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[09:53] <gnuaha7> eclypse: boot with a live cd (knoppix, kubuntu, ubuntu-live) and see

[09:55] <Blissex> qmf: very very unlikely not to have recursive scan for music files.
[09:55] <eclypse> it gives me an error...............
[09:55] <eclypse> this is getting VERY frustrating...
[09:55] <raptros-v76> eclypse: what?

[09:55] <richiefrich> eclypse   how are u trying to mount it ?
[09:56] <eclypse> mount /dev/sda
[09:56] <raptros-v76> sudo mkdir /mnt/sda; sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda
[09:56] <m_0_r_0_n> hi, I ve reinstalled Ubuntu 6.06. Something seems to be wrong with the grafic driver for my radeon 9000 mobility. When I try to change the the native resolution of my notebook (1400x1050) the screen is "disordered")
[09:56] <richiefrich> eclypse  u need a mount point
[09:56] <NoUse> you can't mount /dev/sda people!
[09:56] <BearKnuckle> I need a hint for a software to rip vhs-video-material, which is enplayed via the s-video-input.
[09:56] <richiefrich> eclypse   where are u going to mount it too?  what dir. ?
[09:56] <NoUse> you need a parititon
[09:57] <richiefrich> i said that :)
[09:57] <raptros-v76> eclypse: sudo mkdir /mnt/sda; sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda
[09:57] <NoUse> raptros-v76 that will not work
[09:57] <richiefrich> no u need a number
[09:57] <richiefrich>  sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda
[09:57] <richiefrich>  sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
[09:57] <raptros-v76> ok then: sudo mkdir /mnt/sdaX; sudo mount /dev/sdaX /mnt/sdaX
[09:57] <raptros-v76> X being the partition number
[09:57] <halibut> does anyone know when there will be a version of azureus where the error messages close properly?
[09:58] <m0nk3ym4n> What's the best bit torrent client for Ubuntu?
[09:58] <Huh1> Hey can anyone help me?! I installed lm-sensors and another app that would display my cpu info to the panel, but all I get is "No sensors found" I have a amd athlon xp 2,2+ cpu and a asus a7v333 (via kt333 chipset) motherboard
[09:58] <NoUse> halibut its in CVS apparently
[09:58] <NoUse> eclypse is that *sign* number 4 or 5?
[09:59] <eclypse> what are you talking about?
[09:59] <NoUse> eclypse you keep *sigh*-ing
[09:59] <NoUse> eclypse I thought maybe you were having trouble breathing
[09:59] <raptros-v76> eclypse: just do what we are telling you.
[09:59] <eclypse> I did
[09:59] <eclypse> and it didn't work
[10:00] <eclypse> just like eveyrthing else you've been telling me
[10:00] <richiefrich> what u do ?
[10:00] <richiefrich> exact cmd please
[10:00] <NoUse> eclypse you need to be specific, "doesn't work" helps noone
[10:00] <raptros-v76> tell us what you did, and pastebin the error
[10:00] <czer323> Whoa nice, azuerus errors remain on the screen even after Azureus is closed?
[10:00] <gnuaha7> eclypse: ok... obiusly you cant mount root as sda
[10:00] <gnuaha7> richiefrich: whas a joke
[10:00] <gnuaha7> eclypse: try mounting on sda1
[10:00] <gnuaha7> or sda2
[10:00] <gnuaha7> or sda5
[10:00] <richiefrich> gnuaha7 ahh ok
[10:00] <gnuaha7> on one of those is your root partition
[10:00] <gnuaha7> at least moust
[10:00] <m0nk3ym4n> What's a good linux partition manager?
[10:00] <Blissex> m0nk3ym4n: it is a matter of taste. Most people like Azureus which is written in Java.
[10:00] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Fdisk?
[10:01] <gnuaha7> eclypse: give me the exit of ls /media
[10:01] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n gparted
[10:01] <gnuaha7> and you can't mount sda... you have 3 on sda... SDA 2 SDA 3 and SDA 5... no SDA
[10:01] <gnuaha7> is obius
[10:01] <eclypse> no such file or directory.
[10:01] <Zyclop> Does any1 know, why I get the line ERROR: Unable to open Blender window, whenever I open Blender?

[10:02] <MaDSeN> someone please HELP
[10:02] <NoUse> !helpme
[10:02] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[10:02] <eXistenZ> I get some ssh login delay. Some people said there is a problem with dns lookups. Where are/What can I actually do with dns configurations?
[10:02] <MaDSeN> hehe
[10:03] <MaDSeN> i just upgraded to 6,06 but now i cant login.... i didnt change login or anything.... after i entered password the login screen just pops up again?
[10:03] <bennyp> Hello! I have an emergency - it appears that my iBook has been rendered useless! When i Pressed power half an hour ago, the fan and hard disk started spinning, the screen stayed off and there is nothing I can do to shut off the power
[10:04] <gavagai> bennyp, did you try holding the button down for a long time?
[10:04] <czer323> bennyp> Did you try holding down the power key for 5 seconds to let it shut off?
[10:04] <pdc> bennyp: can't you hold the power button?
[10:04] <bennyp> gavagai, czer323: yes
[10:04] <bennyp> no effect
[10:04] <czer323> Bennyp> Which model powerbook?
[10:04] <bennyp> ibook g4 1ghz 12'
[10:04] <bcc_> what's the difference between md and dm_mod modules for raid?
[10:04] <czer323> Bennyp> Ever heard of resetting the PMU?
[10:04] <AK7> Madsen: does it say denied, or just put up another login screen?
[10:05] <NoUse> MaDSeN start in recovery mode
[10:05] <bennyp> czer323: explain please
[10:05] <m_0_r_0_n> Hi, there is a package named xserver-xorg-driver-ati, but I cant find any description on how to configure the driver.  Can somebody help me out?
[10:05] <eclypse> omfg
[10:05] <eclypse> you guys keep talking
[10:05] <eclypse> and I can't see what this dude typed
[10:05] <eclypse> damnit
[10:05] <czer323> bennyp> sure thing.  let me find an article on the apple website about doing it.  It'll help with pictures.
[10:05] <NoUse> eclypse most modern apps have what is called a scroll bar
[10:05] <NoUse> eclypse allows you to scroll up
[10:05] <amnezia> eclypse:  can't you scroll up?
[10:05] <eclypse> ok
[10:05] <MaDSeN> NoUse I'll give it a try
[10:05] <judah> !scrollback
[10:05] <ubotu> judah: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:06] <czer323> bennyp> check out this article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
[10:06] <eclypse> that mount suggestion merely gave me an invalid arguement error
[10:07] <eclypse> just like the last 20 trys...
[10:07] <raptros-v76> pastebin the error
[10:07] <Centaur5> Does anybody know how I can get the headphone jack on my laptop's Intel 82801G sound card?
[10:07] <judah> bennyp: pull the battery out.
[10:07] <raptros-v76> !tell eclypse about pastebin
[10:07] <judah> along with not having it plugged into the wayll.
[10:07] <bennyp> judah: that doesn't sound like a good idea
[10:07] <bennyp> oh well
[10:07] <judah> if it's just trying to boot.. why not.
[10:07] <bennyp> I guess I have to swallow this one
[10:07] <judah> there's nothing going to happy.
[10:07] <judah> happen
[10:07] <eliog> epale
[10:07] <benplaut> is there any way to launch an app to a specific size while it's being started, as apposed to changing it afterwards using wmctrl?
[10:07] <dxdemetriou> How can I create a shortcut with link, if the link have spaces? It open and close the nautilus. I remember that instead of space must be replaced by something else
[10:08] <czer323> bennyp: It's pretty standard to just remove all the power if it won't turn on.  It shoudln't affect anything.  But if it still won't power on, check out that PMU article.
[10:08] <raptros-v76> eclypse: use the link, paste the error, give us the resulting link, and we'll be able to help you
[10:08] <judah> remove all power sources == off.
[10:08] <eclypse> I give up
[10:08] <eclypse> this is fucking impossible
[10:08] <eclypse> I cna't read what anyone says because people are talking too fast
[10:08] <judah> you have to read fast.
[10:08] <judah> ;)
[10:08] <bennyp> czer323, judah> thanks, Ill let you know how it goes. A question: could bcm43xx-fwcutter have caused all this?
[10:08] <eclypse> ...
[10:08] <sppt> why dont the shared folders in vmware work?
[10:08] <amnezia> eclypse:  you can't scroll?
[10:08] <eclypse> and I also have to look on a seperate computer to type in all this shit
[10:08] <amnezia> eclypse:  you can't scroll?
[10:08] <eclypse> it automatically brings me to the bottom whenever anyone types
[10:08] <raptros-v76> eclypse: you should be using xchat
[10:08] <jrattner1> eclypse, so ask people to prefix there responses with your name so its highlighted
[10:09] <judah> can't your scroll?
[10:09] <eclypse> so, scrolling is almost USELESS
[10:09] <judah> heh
[10:09] <eclypse> ...omfg
[10:09] <eclypse> I'm on windows atm
[10:09] <amnezia> eclypse:  use a decent IRC client!
[10:09] <raptros-v76> ...fudge
[10:09] <Ayabara> the media keys on my dell inspiron work in ubuntu but not in kubuntu..
[10:09] <judah> THERE'S YOUR PROBLEM!
[10:09] <eclypse> because linux has very pathetic support for dialup
[10:09] <amnezia> eclypse:  your problem
[10:09] <ekp> hi
[10:09] <sppt> can someone help me getting shared folders in vmware work?
[10:09] <judah> eclypse: BAH!
[10:09] <eclypse> ...this is insanely unproductive
[10:09] <amnezia> eclypse:  use mirc or xchat for windows then
[10:09] <judah> welcome to irc
[10:09] <jrattner1> eclypse, whats your problem
[10:10] <czer323> bennyp> probably not.  It's just a broadcom chip information extractor, right?  That shoudln't affect the computer from booting.
[10:10] <judah> he can't follow conversations because there are so many going on.
[10:10] <raptros-v76> ok. can we start a temporary channel to help him?
[10:10] <ekp> what is the latest development beta for Ubuntu and is there a iso for trial?
[10:10] <jrattner1> but did he have a technical issue
[10:10] <NoUse> eclypse you might consider posting on ubuntuforums.org
[10:10] <apokryphos> ekp: Dapper was released two weeks ago
[10:10] <dxdemetriou> Anybody knows how can i write the "file:///folder with spaces/" to work?
[10:10] <gnomefreak> raptros-v76: in ubuntu-offtopic would be a good place
[10:10] <jrattner1> ekp, its edgy Eft join #ubuntu+1 for more info
[10:10] <apokryphos> ekp: and you're asking if there's a working beta already?
[10:10] <ekp> I am running Dapper
[10:10] <gnomefreak> ekp: there is no beta yet
[10:11] <raptros-v76> eclypse: /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:11] <bennyp> czer323 judah> okay, I reset the PMU: no effect
[10:11] <judah> bennyp: so what's the issue again? you press the power button to turn on your laptop and nothing happens?
[10:11] <erUSUL> dxdemetriou: in a shell? scape the spaces like this: file:///folder\ with\ spaces/
[10:11] <ekp> OK thnks
[10:11] <bennyp> judah: right after pressing power, the fan spins up HARD
[10:11] <bennyp> and just doesn't stop
[10:11] <czer323> bennyp> Are you certain that you definatly followed the correct instructions for your model?  Just a simple yes or no is fine.
[10:11] <judah> neat.
[10:11] <bennyp> yes
[10:12] <cic> I have a small problem, I think. Every time I update the kernel the old one stay and I only use the latest, so the question is "how do i remove old kernels I don't need"? I tried Google but i could not find any way to list all the kernels so i know what to remove.
[10:12] <jrattner1> will the command line recognize %20 as a space?
[10:12] <judah> bennyp: and what happened just before that happened?
[10:12] <sppt> hey
[10:12] <czer323> Bennyp> Then start removing extra devices attached to the computer.  printer, scanner, camera, anything extra.  You only want to have essential devices for the moment, soonly internet.
[10:12] <dxdemetriou> erUSUL, no in shell. In nautilus. I want to create a link to folder, but I forgot how can I replace the space. I think %...
[10:12] <raptros-v76> anyone helping eclypse /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:12] <bennyp> judah: I was using the computer when the screen blanked (still on, but blank). I held down power to reset the machine
[10:12] <sppt> can someone help me out with vmware?
[10:13] <bennyp> the same happened after reboot, so I reset again, after the second reboot, the current symptoms occured
[10:13] <bennyp> czer323: nothing is attached
[10:13] <|lostbyte|> sppt, vmware is so easy and userfriendly :)
[10:13] <czer323> bennyp> and go ahead and try to remove all extra power to it too.  battery and ac.  make sure it's definately off.
[10:13] <judah> bennyp: sounds interestingly like a hardware failure. have you talked to your local apple genius?
[10:13] <bennyp> czer323: totally blank, no battery, no ac
[10:13] <bennyp> judah: nope... I DON"T HAVE ONE>>> THIS IS GOGN TO COST MONEY WHICH I don't have
[10:14] <bennyp> oopn snorry
[10:14] <judah> bennyp: yeah make sure NO power is attached.
[10:14] <bennyp> no power
[10:14] <apokryphos> bennyp: no caps please.
[10:14] <czer323> bennyp> alright, follow instructions to reset PMU one more time.
[10:14] <judah> right then you tried that right.
[10:14] <czer323> bennyp> and then try to power on again
[10:14] <Toba> anyone know if sound juicer does ID3 tags?
[10:14] <judah> battery out, power not connected.. no power... then battery back in, plug into wall, try and power on.
[10:15] <judah> same result?
[10:15] <higen> Toba.. dont think so.. i changed to GRIP to get id3tag aswell
[10:15] <erUSUL> dxdemetriou: in a shell? scape the spaces like this: file:///folder%20with%20 spaces/
[10:15] <titan_> I have tried asking this in winehq, no answer so I will ask it here. I tried to run wine and got this error "err:imagelist:ImageList_ReplaceIcon no color!
[10:15] <titan_> " anyone know what the problem is?
[10:15] <higen> Grip is much better then sound juicer
[10:15] <Toba> good point
[10:16] <sppt_> can someone help me getting shared folders to work in vmware?
[10:16] <Toba> higen: how can I specify what bitrate to use
[10:16] <NoUse> titan_ is the app you are trying to run supported?
[10:16] <pdc> sppt: lemme check what I did...
[10:16] <bennyp> judah same result
[10:16] <libdmb> hey, is there any particular reason why all of the sudden there are 72 updates for ubuntu 6.06?
[10:16] <roostishaw> how do i password protect a file in ubuntu?
[10:16] <higen> in sound jucier? you need to actually create a new profile and stuff
[10:16] <judah> bennyp: what happened right before the screen blanked?
[10:16] <nnod> pmount is saying my compact flash card is non-removable and refuses to mount it, what to do?
[10:16] <dxdemetriou> erUSUL, thanks it works, it is that
[10:16] <NoUse> libdmb security updates and lanuage pack fixes I believe
[10:16] <bennyp> judah I went to activate airport
[10:16] <Blissex> libdmb: dependencies probably... a package is updated, and then you need to update all those that depends on it.
[10:17] <judah> bennyp: in linux i assume?
[10:17] <libdmb> ah
[10:17] <libdmb> that makes sense
[10:17] <libdmb> not a problem for me, i *LOVE* updates
[10:17] <devil786> #ubuntu-meeting
[10:17] <bennyp> judah yes
[10:17] <libdmb>  updates are fun
[10:17] <devil786> #ubuntu-meeting
[10:17] <DecemberEscape> Good evening people. I've come here because i have a probleme installing Ubuntu, or realy launching it. Can anybody help me in private chat please? :)
[10:17] <mooomin> idiot
[10:17] <roostishaw> ask your quetion
[10:18] <libdmb> anyway, if any of you use openvz, I have finished the Ubuntu LTS template
[10:18] <libdmb> and is now on openvz's servers
[10:18] <DecemberEscape> roostishaw: me?
[10:18] <libdmb> so you can use Ubuntu for your own vps if you use openvz
[10:18] <bennyp> sweet... now I can't get the ubuntu cd out of the drive so I can test with tho tiger dvd
[10:18] <bennyp> brilliant
[10:18] <mooomin> k
[10:18] <titan_> NoUse, not even trying to run an app, just straight up wine.
[10:18] <czer323> bennyp> try to turn on the computer holding down the mouse button to eject it.
[10:18] <roostishaw> ya, why do you need private chat? and dont talk it personally   :D
[10:18] <NoUse> titan_ wine only runs when you run it with an .exe file
[10:18] <czer323> bennyp> let me know if that doesn't work.
[10:18] <roostishaw> *take
[10:19] <DecemberEscape> cause it's easier to solve a problem when there isn't 36billons messages a minute ;)
[10:19] <czer323> bennyp> also, are you hearing an apple chime every time you turn the computer on?
[10:19] <bennyp> oh wait... I was just able to restart by the power button... that's a change
[10:19] <dxdemetriou> I try to find good links that explains about shell scripts, and different modifications in command line. Is there anybody that knows one good place?
[10:19] <bennyp> czer323 no apple chime
[10:20] <bennyp> czer323: as I've said it doesn't even get that far.. no grey screen... no screen at all
[10:20] <DecemberEscape> I've got a AMD64bit, and so i wanted to look around ubuntu server amd64, since i've never been on anything else than knoppix and mandriva. It instals and all, but at the second boot, i've only got text mode. is it normal?
[10:20] <judah> it's probably trying to seek the cd in the drive or something.
[10:20] <ZeZu> ok
[10:20] <DecemberEscape> second boot: first boot after install
[10:20] <roostishaw> how do i password protect a file in ubuntu?
[10:20] <czer323> bennyp> So, how's that power button doing now?  What was different about it the last time?
[10:20] <ZeZu> this is weird, i get a notification about updates, when i click it, its updates the database then X locks up
[10:20] <bennyp> czer323: mouse button does not eject the cd
[10:21] <ZeZu> i get a bad dispaly after a minute, and then it restarts X
[10:21] <LjL> roostishaw: just make it readable for the appropriate user, and for nobody else
[10:21] <bennyp> czer323: now holdeing dow the power button shuts off the machine
[10:21] <ZeZu> anyone know why this is happening ?
[10:21] <bennyp> before it did not
[10:21] <titan_> NoUse, what is the command to run and configure wine
[10:21] <czer323> bennyp> alright, last ditch attempt.  Shut down the computer.  Turn the compute ron and then immeidately hold apple-option-O-F and keep holding till you see a white screen with black stext.
[10:21] <NoUse> titan_ winecfg opens wine's config
[10:21] <roostishaw> LjL, but a few people use this same account... is there any software to do this?
[10:21] <LjL> roostishaw: you could encrypt the file. why do several people use the same account?
[10:21] <NoUse> titan_ wine some_program.exe to run wine
[10:22] <titan_> NoUse, ya, tried that it gives me the same error, I think maybe I need to update my Nvidia drivers
[10:22] <NoUse> titan_ probably not
[10:22] <Ackeubu_> hey
[10:22] <czer323> Bennyp> this should boot into something called open firmware where we can tell it to eject the cd.  if it doesn't do this, i'm thinking this is more of a hardware issue.  Open firmware HAS to work on a mac.
[10:22] <roostishaw> LjL, how do i encrypt it?
[10:22] <NoUse> titan_ rm ~/.wine -rf
[10:22] <titan_> NoUse, it als osays something about X Server not running or $DISPLAY not correct
[10:22] <NoUse> titan_ then run winecfg
[10:22] <DecemberEscape> Can anybody help me with me problem posted sevral lines upper? ^^'
[10:22] <NoUse> titan_ are you running this from inside gnome?
[10:22] <eXistenZ> what's the package for the dns server?
[10:22] <LjL> roostishaw: a number of choice. you could use gpg i suppose
[10:22] <Ackeubu_> whats wrong with 'chmod a+rwx' ?
[10:23] <titan_> NoUse, what is that rm stuff, I had to compile my wine and it would be a big pain to remove it, yes I am running it in Gnome
[10:23] <NoUse> Ackeubu_ for what?
[10:23] <Ackeubu_> whats wrong with 'chmod a+rwx /home/public' ?
[10:23] <Ackeubu_> for public foldet
[10:23] <DarkElf109> eXistenZ: bind9
[10:23] <NoUse> titan_ why did you compile wine?
[10:23] <LjL> Ackeubu_: nothing wrong, if you actually want it to be public.
[10:23] <eXistenZ> DarkElf109, What does it exactly manage?
[10:23] <titan_> NoUse, because I use wine with World of Warcraft and you have to patch it to fix an error in World of Warcraft to get it to run right.
[10:24] <ZeZu> anyone?
[10:24] <DarkElf109> eXistenZ: It's a DNS server. It manages DNS =P
[10:24] <NoUse> titan_ ok, will rm ~/.wine/ -rf just removes your local config
[10:24] <NoUse> titan_ the program is still installed
[10:24] <titan_> ok
[10:24] <ZeZu> how can i get these updates via cmdline incase its just synaptic gui that is causing the lockup ?
[10:24] <judah> !apt-get
[10:24] <ubotu> apt-get is probably http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/apt-howto.en.txt (in depth) and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowto
[10:24] <mooomin> apt-get
[10:24] <NoUse> ZeZu sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:24] <bennyp> czer323: apple(command)-alt(option)-O-F yields no result
[10:24] <LeifErikson> how can i see my MAC address on linux, any one?
[10:24] <bennyp> excellent
[10:24] <bennyp> this is how I wanted to spend my afternoon
[10:24] <ZeZu> NoUse, thx
[10:25] <DarkElf109> LeifErikson: ifconfig <adapter>
[10:25] <judah> LeifErikson: ifconfig will show it to you
[10:25] <jrattner1> LeifErikson, ifconfig -a
[10:25] <LeifErikson> ok. thanks.
[10:25] <titan_> NoUse, when I try to run it I get, Application tries to create a window, but no driver coulf be loaded, I really think it's my graphics drivers, I am going to try to update them
[10:25] <DecemberEscape> Is everyone ignoring my problem or what? xD i'ld realy like to try this distrib -.-'
[10:25] <Ackeubu_> ljl yeah thanks. i guess my file browser was buggy not showing the appropriate permissions
[10:25] <graft> yo, why do i get 'nfsv3 not supported' when I try to mount stuff?
[10:25] <NoUse> titan_ I don't think so but ok
[10:25] <jrattner1> DecemberEscape, what is your problem
[10:26] <judah> DecemberEscape: did you install desktop version or server?
[10:26] <DecemberEscape> jrattner1> i've installed Ubuntru Server AMD64, but when it boots, i only get text-mode^^' is it normal?
[10:26] <bennyp> great... when I fix this thing, I'm going to microwave my ubuntu disc
[10:26] <NoUse> titan_ you aren't trying to run wine as root are you?
[10:26] <LjL> DecemberEscape: the server versiion doesn't have a UI afaik
[10:26] <judah> bennyp: i'm sure it's not unbuntu that did it.
[10:27] <DecemberEscape> UI = user interface?
[10:27] <LjL> DecemberEscape: you should install the standard desktop if you want X.
[10:27] <jrattner1> DecemberEscape, i assume though, i believe the server version is designed for a headless system
[10:27] <LjL> ys
[10:27] <LjL> yes
[10:27] <judah> DecemberEscape: right.. server wouldn't install a gui by default i bet.
[10:27] <czer323_> bennyp> Still around?  I got disconnected
[10:27] <m0nk3ym4n> I'm trying to install Nvidia drivers but it says I'm running an X server how do I stop it so I can install the drivers/
[10:27] <knight488> what do I need to install from Synaptic to be able to run "make"?
[10:27] <zF> !sources
[10:27] <graft> is it possible that dapper doesn't have nfs v3 support in mount, for some stupid, stupid reason?
[10:27] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource.
[10:27] <LjL> i don't understand what's this thing with people installing server when they really want desktop...
[10:27] <NoUse> !tell m0nk3ym4n about nvidia
[10:27] <LjL> knight488: build-essential
[10:27] <jrattner1> knight488, build essentials packagw
[10:28] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n follow the howto ubotu just sent you, dont' install the package from nvidia.com
[10:28] <judah> !build-essential
[10:28] <ubotu> hmm... build-essential is a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[10:28] <DecemberEscape> Oh... okay^^ i thought it's just my pc, since no linux works on it xD well, i'll instale Desktop then, thank's a lot guys ;)
[10:28] <m0nk3ym4n> What's that?
[10:28] <judah> whoa.. lage city.
[10:28] <judah> lag even.
[10:28] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n whats what?
[10:28] <zF> LjL: I did it my first time installing Ubuntu. I don't know what I was thinking :/
[10:28] <m0nk3ym4n> the hoto ubotu sent me?
[10:28] <m0nk3ym4n> howto
[10:28] <LjL> DecemberEscape: you can probably type "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" or "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop" (for KDE) too
[10:28] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n its a howto for nvidia cards
[10:28] <m0nk3ym4n> Where is it?
[10:29] <LjL> DecemberEscape: however, you'd still be left with the server version. which, for instance, has no sound support
[10:29] <knight488> LjL abd jrattner, thanks very much
[10:29] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n check your PMs
[10:29] <m0nk3ym4n> lol I'm sorry I'm such a noob how do I do that?
[10:29] <NoUse> !nvidia
[10:29] <ubotu> methinks nvidia is a graphics card manufacturer. For help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu, you can visit the Ubuntu Wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/NVidia
[10:29] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n ^^^
[10:29] <DecemberEscape> LjL> Hum... i'm definitivly going to install the Desktop version then^^'
[10:29] <Zyclop> why doesn't blender work?
[10:29] <m0nk3ym4n> ok I see now
[10:30] <DecemberEscape> LjL: thx for the help :)
[10:30] <LjL> DecemberEscape: also, keep in mind that the 64 bit version has a few limitations (don't ask me to enumerate them though, someone will surely know better). AFAIK most people use the 23 bit version
[10:30] <m0nk3ym4n> That how to doesn't exist
[10:30] <DecemberEscape> 23? you meen 32?
[10:30] <tommy2k4> ubuntu crashed on me :(
[10:31] <docta_v> tommy2k4: were you running an opengl screensaver?
[10:31] <docta_v> or anything opengl
[10:31] <LjL> DecemberEscape: yes, sure.
[10:31] <tommy2k4> music stopped playing and monitoir just gave lots of multicoloured vertical lines
[10:31] <tommy2k4> nope no ss
[10:31] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n it sure does
[10:31] <dxdemetriou> m0nk3ym4n, you have installed the legacy drivers from apt?
[10:32] <m0nk3ym4n> lol how do I check? =(
[10:32] <DecemberEscape> LjL: Hum... well i'll still dl the 64version, just to see how it does, and if not satisfied, i'll try the 32version
[10:32] <LjL> though a 23 bit OS could probably be fun
[10:32] <nnod> hey all, pmount is giving me "Error: device /dev/hde1 is not removable" when i try to mount my compact flash card with a pcmcia adaptor. /sys/block/hde/removable is set to 0, is there something i can do to make it removable?
[10:32] <jrattner1> DecemberEscape, do you have a 64 bit processor?
[10:32] <tommy2k4> when i rebooted kde says something like pocess ended unexpectedly or something and theres no internet connection like usual cos gaim/ope wont connect
[10:32] <m0nk3ym4n> I found the correct one NoUse
[10:32] <LjL> DecemberEscape: i think the problems are mainly with drivers and non-free stuff like flash player and whatnot. but again, i'm not the one to know about this
[10:32] <NoUse> m0nk3ym4n https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[10:32] <DecemberEscape> jrattner1> yes :)
[10:32] <kryptn> hi people

[10:33] <kevin> Hello, I have my wife running Dapper and I would like to remote in using RDP, I also have Dapper on my laptop, from the laptop to the desktop, I get an error Connection refused, what do I need to do to get this working?
[10:33] <roryy> kryptn: you should be able to use sudo with no password
[10:33] <igorzolnikov> how can i see avi in ubuntu?
[10:33] <Zyclop> !blender
[10:33] <ubotu> somebody said blender was a free 3d program that can be found at http://www.blender3d.org  and tutorials at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro
[10:34] <rapha> By looking up "Restricted Formats" in the Wiki, igorzolnikov
[10:34] <Cin> igorzolnikov, use mplayer or xine.
[10:34] <kryptn> umm, thanks roryy.
[10:34] <Ng> !tell igorzolnikov about restrictedformats
[10:34] <roryy> kryptn: 'sudo -i' to get a root prompt
[10:34] <kryptn> i will try it
[10:34] <Ng> erk, sorry, wrong factoid
[10:34] <Ng> !tell igorzolnikov about restricted
[10:35] <bennyp> czer323 I'm still here
[10:35] <kryptn> it didnt work for what i wanted...
[10:35] <bennyp> I've tried taking out tha battery and restarting on ac power only
[10:35] <bennyp> no effect
[10:35] <igorzolnikov> fuck!
[10:35] <kryptn> im trying to setup the xampp server
[10:35] <Cin> kevin, you using KDE or GNOME?
[10:35] <czer323_> bennyp> Alright, so were you able to get into open firmware mode?
[10:35] <kevin> GNOME sorry bout that
[10:35] <bennyp> czer323 no
[10:35] <czer323_> bennyp> Apple-option-Letter O- Letter F
[10:35] <knight488> anyone know why I get a slew of errors when trying to run make on acer_acpi?
[10:35] <[sTeReo] > hello everybody
[10:36] <kryptn> hi there
[10:36] <bennyp> czer323 that's right. no effect
[10:36] <apokryphos> igorzolnikov: language, please.
[10:36] <czer323_> bennyp> Then you've got a hardware issue.  pull any extra ram you've installed and try resetting pmu.  There's really nothing else that's left.
[10:36] <bennyp> I called the repoir shop... $60+parts+$85/hour
[10:36] <[Wiebel] > ARGH
[10:36] <[Wiebel] > wat is it with complete-as-you-type in gnome/ubuntu
[10:36] <bennyp> my bank account is empty :(
[10:36] <tommy2k4> anyone got any ideas bout my crash?
[10:36] <[Wiebel] > it's buggy like hell
[10:36] <czer323_> bennyp> What about a local apple retail store?  Mac Geniuses are free to speak with unless it takes a repair.
[10:37] <judah> bennyp: go to an apple store.. not a repair shop.
[10:37] <bennyp> okay
[10:37] <bennyp> there's one in yorkdale mall
[10:37] <judah> bennyp: go to the genius bar.. they'll look at it.
[10:37] <judah> bennyp: then tell you waht to do..
[10:37] <judah> bennyp: they won't charge you anything unless repairs are needed out of warrenty.
[10:37] <Cin> kevin, I don't use GNOME, but I may know. First, have you setup RPD or VNC on the computer?
[10:37] <bennyp> will they talk to me if i mention the l-word?
[10:37] <czer323_> bennyp> Yeah, there you go.  make a reservation and go talk to them.  If you can't get into open firmware, it's hardware.  You know how to make a reservation?
[10:37] <[Wiebel] > or what should I call it?
[10:38] <kevin> I did before, still no go
[10:38] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, please mind your language

[10:41] <m0nk3ym4n> Where's the best place to start learning about Ubuntu in the wiki?
[10:41] <m0nk3ym4n> Like how Linux is setup with root and drivers and all
[10:41] <KuLover> Hiya, I can not copy files to a hard drive that I just set in fstab with defaults. Should I use chown user /media/dir? It is a storage drive for pictures..
[10:41] <jrattner1> QUESTION: Anyone know of any GOOD RSS agregator that sits in the gnome panel besides YARSSR
[10:41] <docta_v> tommy2k4: sounds like a video driver problem
[10:42] <ompaul> udo, please click on the "speaker" icon on the top right hand of the screen and make sure nothing is muted you can also choose advanced and make sure no input device is totally muted
[10:42] <docta_v> what kind of card do you have
[10:42] <tommy2k4> just onboard im pretty sure
[10:42] <docta_v> could be defective or overheating
[10:42] <Cin> kevin, how are you connecting?
[10:42] <tommy2k4> not likely
[10:42] <kevin> through RDP in terminal server client Cin
[10:43] <dxdemetriou> udo, or go System/Preferences/Sound, to see if it is correct. I had this problem with my tv-card :)
[10:43] <docta_v> how do you know?
[10:43] <docta_v> you don't even know what card you have
[10:43] <tommy2k4> ive never had any problems under windows ever and its not like i was running anything 'heavy' and why would that make it not pick up my lan connection
[10:43] <tommy2k4> its onboard i just told you
[10:43] <titan_> how do I shut down the x server so I can install nvidia drivers? I want the terminal login
[10:43] <kevin> brb cookin din din
[10:44] <maverynthia> ;.;
[10:44] <bennyp> czer323: i just pulled my 3rd party ram module... no good :(
[10:44] <nickrud> titan_, log out of the desktop, hit ctl-alt-f1, type sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[10:44] <ompaul> tommy2k4, do this in a terminal >>  sudo lshw | less <<  and see what you can see leave out the <>
[10:44] <judah> titan_: press ctl + alt + F[1-5] 
[10:44] <Tommy3D> Im a noob - i would like to get VNC to start on boot, and allow connections
[10:44] <Tommy3D> without me logging in remotely
[10:44] <judah> titan_: the `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart` after you get it setup..
[10:45] <tommy2k4> k lemme boot into ubuntu
[10:45] <judah> titan_: or reboot... GASP!
[10:45] <udo> nothing all is unmute
[10:45] <|lostbyte|> I belive you all are on dsl.. just a question !
[10:45] <Agrajag> kevin: RDP is for windows terminal services. You said is was Dapper on both sides? You need to use VNC.
[10:45] <johnflux> Hey all
[10:45] <|lostbyte|> How important is the speed option with pppd ?
[10:45] <titan_> lol, thanks guys
[10:46] <bennyp> czer323: It's alive!!! it's alive!!!
[10:46] <maverynthia> How do I set permission for this HD so I can write to it? ;.;
[10:46] <jtj> judah can i join in on this
[10:46] <bennyp> screen's dead though
[10:46] <judah> jtj: you can do whatever you want..
[10:46] <mystamax_> Whats involved in mapping a windows folder to my ubuntu system?
[10:46] <judah> jtj: though i don't know what you mean really..
[10:46] <kevin> Agrajag, will try that ;-)
[10:46] <|lostbyte|> anyone ? could you tell me if you are using it in the first place ?
[10:46] <Tommy3D> Anyone? I cant get VNCServer on Ubuntu 5.01 to load at boot / accept connections
[10:47] <jtj> judah i just put tht line in and my screen has come up with login
[10:47] <udo> nothing all is unmute what happen?
[10:47] <judah> jtj oh .. yeah.. virtual terminals..
[10:47] <judah> jtj: they're allways there..
[10:47] <ompaul> maverynthia, you see your question does not let someone help you, it does not say what kind of hard drive it is - ntfs or est3 and does not say what partition is it your trying to address, all this helps someone diagnose it, and you should as a matter of helping others only ask your quesiton every 15 minutes or so as not to be taking up too much channel space if somone does not know the answer wait ask again
[10:47] <judah> jtj... ctl + alt + F7 is where X usually lives.
[10:47] <bennyp> YES! I'm in open firmware
[10:47] <johnflux> Is there a guide for how to setup 32bit mplayer in 64bit ubuntu?
[10:47] <dxdemetriou> udo, check on System / Preferences / Sound
[10:48] <czer323_> bennyp> sweet, what changed?
[10:48] <udo> i check it
[10:48] <judah> jtj and you can use F[1-6]  actually
[10:48] <coda> Quick question: how do I flush my DNS cache on Dapper?
[10:48] <czer323_> bennyp> if you type 'eject cd' it should pop out the cd.
[10:48] <maverynthia> it's hdb1 est3
[10:48] <dxdemetriou> udo, on bottom is there only one driver?
[10:48] <jtj> judah ok well think i may have misunderstood
[10:48] <judah> jtj: ctl + alt + F1 .. or F2 or F3 or F4
[10:48] <udo> no i choose only the sound card
[10:48] <judah> and so on..
[10:49] <ompaul> maverynthia, what is the name of the partition? i.e. what are you tryuing to mount is as
[10:49] <judah> jtj: they're configured in /etc/inittab if you're interested.
[10:49] <bennyp> czer323: I took out ram, unpluged/plugged power, the reset the pmu
[10:49] <jtj> what i wnat to do really is disable the logon screen
[10:49] <bennyp> the power just died though
[10:49] <maverynthia> It's already mounted as hdb1
[10:49] <bennyp> I was in OF one second, the next the screen just died
[10:49] <judah> jtj for all time.. ie.. every boot?
[10:49] <judah> jtj or just for now..
[10:49] <Tommy2k4> K #kubuntu
[10:49] <maverynthia> It only has lost+found on it
[10:49] <ompaul> maverynthia, so what is in that partition /?
[10:49] <titan_> Crap, when I try to install the NVidia drivers, even after ctrl-alt-f1 ing it still says I am running xserver... how do I shut it down
[10:49] <czer323_> bennyp> You've got the ac conneted?
[10:49] <jtj> tht way i can rebbot from a remote desktop and run viewer
[10:49] <kevin> vnc worked
[10:49] <ompaul> maverynthia, what is it called /?
[10:49] <bennyp> czer323 yeah ubuntu's booting now
[10:49] <KuLover> Why is it that every time, during boot, during the graphical progress bar, it hangs at "Checking all filesystems", then switches to text boot and goes about everything normaly.
[10:49] <bennyp> man tha sucked
[10:49] <maverynthia> What do you mean?
[10:50] <Tommy2k4> well this time it picked up my network connection and no kde error
[10:50] <judah> jtj: you can stop gdm with `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop`
[10:50] <dxdemetriou> udo, on bottom I have 3 drivers. The default was my tv-card, and I changed it for the soundcard's
[10:50] <bennyp> now we'll see if it starts dieing randomly again
[10:50] <jtj> judah i have laptop with no screen so wnat to ooperate it from remote, have got th set up but not idif i need to reboot
[10:50] <jtj> judahok thanks ill do tht
[10:50] <bennyp> I still think ubuntu has somethig to do with this....
[10:50] <udo> yes i do but...
[10:50] <titan_> judah, how do I kill the x server so I can install my Nvidia drivers?
[10:50] <czer323_> bennyp> super cool.  Well, it could be bad ram then.  Try adding the ram later when everything seems fine and see if the issue returns.
[10:50] <ompaul> maverynthia, what is it mounted as?
[10:50] <tokeiito> good evening
[10:50] <maverynthia> hdb1
[10:50] <czer323_> bennyp> Ram CAN go bad.
[10:50] <bennyp> czer323 I ill thanks for your help judah, you too
[10:50] <judah> titan_: you don't need to kill it to install them.. but if you want to stop it you can issue the gdm stop command above.
[10:51] <bennyp> czer323 yes that's true
[10:51] <Sivik> titan_: ctrl-alt-f1 and then type xdm killall
[10:51] <bennyp> now I have to drop $$ on a new dimm hahah
[10:51] <judah> titan_: you can just install and configure them and then reboot or tell gdm to restart.
[10:51] <Tommy2k4> who was it that just asked me to sudo lshw | less
[10:51] <Sivik> judah: you can't if you download the file from the nvidia website
[10:51] <ompaul> maverynthia, no, do df -h and paste the line for hdb1 ONLY no more than that or you will be muted
[10:51] <czer323_> bennyp> Try running the memory test on it a few times.  I think yo ucan do it from the ubuntu install disk.
[10:51] <zF> Hi
[10:51] <Sivik> judah: you have to do it from init3 if you have the download from the nvidia website
[10:51] <czer323_> bennyp> if the issues comes back after adding the additional ram.
[10:52] <bennyp> czer323 how can I get to virtual terminals with an ibook keyb
[10:52] <zF> How difficult is it to get get compiz/XGL working with the latest dapper build.
[10:52] <titan_> judah, when I try to install the drivers i got from NVidia, it says I have to not be running x server, I am going to go try that now
[10:52] <Sivik> zF: what kind of card
[10:52] <ompaul> maverynthia, I am looking for the column details that has a / but is not /dev/hdb1
[10:52] <Sivik> titan_: do what i said earlier
[10:52] <Sivik> titan_: ctrl-alt-f1 and then type xdm killall
[10:52] <judah> listen to Sivik
[10:52] <maverynthia> Where do I input that command
[10:52] <ompaul> zF, please go to #ubuntu-xgl for XGL stuff thanks
[10:53] <Tommy2k4> who was it that just told me to sudo lshw | less
[10:53] <zF> Sivik, intel extreme graphics (64 MB internal)
[10:53] <Sivik> zF: go to the #ubuntu-xgl channel, just like ompaul said
[10:53] <Tommy3D> One last try - Any one know how to get vncserver to start at boot and accept incoming connections?
[10:53] <czer323_> bennyp> i'm not one hundred prercent sure.  PCs it's alt-ctrl-function key.  perhaps on macs it's apple-alt-function or apple-ctrl-function.
[10:53] <ompaul> maverynthia, in a terminal, from the Menu  --applications -> Accessories -> terminal
[10:53] <Sivik> titan_, does that make sense
[10:53] <bennyp> czer323: no matter, I just did ctrl alt del.... I find it odd that after 2 years, the ram would just die that way
[10:54] <maverynthia> OK... it says: "bash: df-h: command not found"
[10:54] <Sivik> bennyp, its possible
[10:54] <Sivik> titan_: did that work?
[10:54] <bennyp> czer323: it looks like the screen ust died again
[10:54] <Sivik> bennyp, ram can die at anytime
[10:54] <jtj> judah i ran tht command to stop logon forever and now its got my laptop name up asking for login
[10:54] <ompaul> maverynthia, there is a space between the df and the -h
[10:54] <titan_> Sivik, no, it gave me an error, like it was a bad command
[10:54] <dxdemetriou> udo, change the defaul soundcard, and press one play button for test. To know tthe person you ask, write the first letters of nick and press the tab button :)
[10:54] <Sivik> bennyp, just like anyother hard ware
[10:54] <titan_> Sivik, xdm killall right?
[10:54] <|lostbyte|> any one ?
[10:54] <Sivik> titan_: are you in gnome?
[10:54] <titan_> Sivik, yes
[10:54] <kevin> Later folks time for some din din
[10:54] <Tommy2k4> who was it that just told me to sudo lshw | less
[10:54] <Sivik> then its gdm not xdm
[10:55] <maverynthia> /dev/hdb1             4.9G  2.5G  2.1G  55% /
[10:55] <Sivik> titan_, gdm killall
[10:55] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, I suggest you might want to use it
[10:55] <Sivik> titan_, sudo gdm killall
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> huh?
[10:55] <czer323_> bennyp> Well, try all the same things.  Try switching the ram sticks to the other one.  Apple ram can go bad too. lol, if it keeps happening even after switching it, then it's some other hardware.  I'm not really sure what to tell you after that other than Apple Genius bar.
[10:55] <Tommy3D> Tommy3D
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> i did i dunno what you want me to do with the results
[10:55] <shocktrooper1> how can I make grub uptodate with my hda1 and hdb1?
[10:56] <bennyp> yeah. thanks for the help, you really got me out of a mess
[10:56] <czer323_> bennyp> good luck, i've gotta go though.  Take care.
[10:56] <czer323_> lol, and thanks for calling apple. lol
[10:56] <titan_> Sivik, ok I wil ltry that
[10:56] <Sivik> titan_, yeah
[10:57] <gr33npho4nix> Sivik: try sudo killall gdm
[10:57] <ompaul> maverynthia, so it is half full, it is your base file system it is not normal for a user to just write to it, what are you trying to do, the way it is organised there are "semi formal rules" about what goes where so what are you trying to do
[10:57] <udo> how can i checked my vga adapter drivers?
[10:57] <Sivik> gr33npho4nix, thats what i told titan_ to try
[10:57] <Sivik> gr33npho4nix, i'm not the one doing it
[10:57] <gr33npho4nix> oh ok
[10:57] <Tommy3D> Anyone know how to get vncserver to start on boot - and allow incoming connections - Ubuntu 5.01
[10:57] <Sivik> gr33npho4nix, its titan and i told him to try gdm rather than xdm
[10:57] <gr33npho4nix> it just looked like you put gdm first
[10:57] <Tommy2k4> ubuntu just crashed before =/ monitor just showed lots of multicoloured vertical lines and music stopped playing
[10:57] <Sivik> gr33npho4nix, nope, i said xdm cause that what i had to use because i'm not in gnome nor kde
[10:57] <jtj> could someone say how i disable the logon screen so that it boots straight through and doesn't ask for user name or password
[10:58] <Tommy3D> jtj, System > Administration > Login Screen Setup
[10:58] <PeskyGee> Hello
[10:58] <maverynthia> Well, I have this game I'm trying to copy there...I'm not even sure it's the right place since it says about 5G and the one I'm thinking of is about 70G
[10:58] <xfcefreak> jtj: take a look in system>admin>login screen
[10:58] <Tommy3D> Anyone know how to start VNCSERVER AT BOOT?!
[10:58] <jtj> tommy yeah i went there but there isnt the instruction to do tht
[10:58] <xfcefreak> jtj: if its not there install gnome-art
[10:59] <gr33npho4nix> jtj: the security tab in that app
[10:59] <poje> Is there a way to make my changes in qsynaptics permanent?
[10:59] <Tommy3D> Should be a checkbox saying "Login a User Automatically on first boot"
[10:59] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions you get to add these phrases to the boot prompt if you press escape during boot
[10:59] <ompaul> !repeat
[10:59] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.  You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Please give it 10 to 15 minutes before asking a second time, thanks.
[10:59] <jtj> tommy yeah there isnt
[10:59] <xfcefreak> jtj: if you look at all the tabs its kind of selkf explainatory
[10:59] <|lostbyte|> how important is the speed option ?
[10:59] <jtj> xfce i have and it'snot there
[10:59] <ompaul> Tommy3D, please check out what ubotu said about repeat  thanks
[10:59] <jo33> exit
[10:59] <xfcefreak> jtj: dapper
[10:59] <xfcefreak> ?
[10:59] <mooseman447> hey
[10:59] <jtj> xcfe yeah
[11:00] <maverynthia> It's sitting on my desktop as hdb1
[11:00] <xfcefreak> jtj: its there i was just in there
[11:00] <kane77> anybody here uses ypops?? I cant get it running...
[11:00] <jtj> xfce in securtiy tab
[11:00] <igorzolnikov> plz give me docs about install jdk-1.5
[11:00] <mooseman447> how do you make md5sum's for a cd?
[11:00] <Ackeubu_> hey im trying to configure samba for ubuntu. I would want to configure it so that my user can share his home directory. How would I do that?
[11:00] <gr33npho4nix> Tommy3D: from what I've seen you probably need a nice home brewed solution
[11:00] <xfcefreak> jtj: give me a sec im pulling it up
[11:00] <Tommy3D> for vnc?
[11:00] <Tommy3D> hmm
[11:00] <nickrud> or !tell igorzolnikov about java
[11:00] <gr33npho4nix> Tommy3D: something cooked up with pure cli knowledge and start up knowledge
[11:00] <Tommy3D> i think i got it somehow with XDMCP
[11:00] <PeskyGee> I am looking to finally ditch Winbloze for the final time here and was thinking about using xubuntu as my OS but there are a few things that I need to make sure are working in XU so that I can make the change. I am not new to Linux at all and have been using it on and off for about 10 years now. I was hope someone could answer a few simple questions for me?
[11:00] <gr33npho4nix> Tommy3D: yes
[11:00] <xfcefreak> jtj: click the box next to enable automatic login
[11:01] <Tommy3D> vncviewer connected then
[11:01] <Tommy3D> som im rebooting and seeing if i can connect from boot
[11:01] <Tommy3D> :P
[11:01] <Sivik> PeskyGee, sure
[11:01] <ompaul> maverynthia, that may be the case but writing to your root file system is not a good idea save to your /home/username or desktop
[11:01] <KuLover> Hiya, I can not copy files to a hard drive that I just set in fstab with defaults. Should I use chown user /media/dir? It is a storage drive for music, mind you.
[11:01] <mooseman447> anybody know?
[11:01] <Sivik> PeskyGee: what do you need to know about?
[11:01] <xfcefreak> jtj: than type the user name in the box
[11:01] <gr33npho4nix> Tommy3D: I thought XDCMP was for remote x11 connections
[11:01] <jtj> xfce i have and put nmy user name there but the next time i open it the user name has gone
[11:01] <ompaul> Tommy3D, are you going to stop repeating?
[11:01] <|lostbyte|> Gosh ! lookes like no one has DSL here.. SAAD :(
[11:01] <gavagai> I just installed ddclient, and went through the configuration menues.  Now, I'm behind a NAT router, so my internal IP may not change even if my external changes.  Will ddclient notice this?
[11:01] <PeskyGee> I have a nvidia video card w/ TV out. Does it work in U? What app do I need?
[11:01] <Apple15> how do i startx the first time i install dapper 6.06
[11:01] <Tommy2k4> im also looking for a way to auto login without entering password
[11:02] <maverynthia> OK, I'm doing that. But how would I write to this phantom HD partion on the desktop?
[11:02] <benplaut> (this has happened a billion times... guess i should ask). If you close some games using kill, or they crash, they will still be grabbing your mouse.  How do you get your mouse back, assuming you can get to a term?
[11:02] <Sivik> PeskyGee, the nvidia card works, not sure about the TV out
[11:02] <poje> Is anyone else using qsynaptics with their laptop?
[11:02] <xfcefreak> jtj: click the drop down arrow and choose the name
[11:02] <nickrud> Apple15, a default install boots directly to X
[11:02] <Sivik> PeskyGee, google to see, nvidia tv-out ubuntu
[11:02] <tony_> hi all!, Software update restarts X when i try for description of update, is this a common error? If i skip description i can update
[11:02] <Tommy3D> This is being completely and utterly gay
[11:02] <Tommy3D> Any ideas anyone?
[11:02] <xfcefreak> jtj: other than that i would file a bug after searching to see if someone else did already
[11:02] <jtj> xfce for user? yeah i have i close and then it open it up again and its gone
[11:02] <PeskyGee> thats one of the only reasons that I use XP still is because I watch movies to my TV with that card
[11:02] <ompaul> !gay
[11:03] <Sivik> PeskyGee, you should be able to
[11:03] <jtj> xfce if you put a name there and close the window and then go back again can you still see the name? would you mind trying?
[11:03] <Equador> a
[11:03] <Sivik> PeskyGee, i'm not sure though, what else do you use that you need to know about?
[11:03] <PeskyGee> Next question: Is there any software anyone is aware of that can join Divx file together and also convert files to Divx format? Preferred not the command line unless someone has a great script?
[11:04] <dmb062082> hello
[11:04] <xfcefreak> jtj: have you tried logging out and back in again
[11:04] <gr33npho4nix> Tommy3D: ideally a shell script set to run vncserver as your user could be boot into the boot order
[11:04] <dmb062082> I just have one gripe, root password heh heh
[11:04] <dmb062082> I never got to set one
[11:04] <PeskyGee> ffmpeg seems to be mature now but I think thats only command line?
[11:04] <dmb062082> ubuntu 64 rocks btw
[11:04] <titan_> Sivik, That worked, I just had to use killall gdm instead of gdm killall
[11:04] <jtj> xfce yeah but as i say as soon as i close tht wondow the name disappears
[11:04] <Sivik> PeskyGee, everything your asking, can be found on the forums, via www.ubuntuforums.org
[11:04] <xfcefreak> jtj: does it log you in automaticaly?
[11:05] <Equador> I have problem with eggdrop bots...i can`t seen any bots on the channel...but eggdrop is up?
[11:05] <Sivik> PeskyGee, check that and google before asking in here
[11:05] <Equador> can you help me?
[11:05] <kane77> ypops??? anybody knows how to install?? or does the deb package exist???
[11:05] <Sivik> titan_, yw
[11:05] <jason> anyone have problems with their console being really slow in dapper?
[11:05] <jtj> xfce ok im rebooting again
[11:05] <veleno> anyone succesfully installed Trac with mod_python ?
[11:05] <Sivik> titan_, i couldn't remember the order, sorry about that
[11:05] <xfcefreak> Equador: this is not the place for bots or bot talk please jopin #debian-bots or #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:05] <Sivik> jason: no
[11:05] <xfcefreak> s/jopin/join
[11:05] <Equador> tnx
[11:06] <titan_> Sivik, thanks again =P All i have to do now is install my kernel source code cause it has to compile my kernel and crap to install it... what a pain.
[11:06] <jason> Sivik: ok, it's strange, like if i open a manpage or something it takes ages to fill the screen
[11:06] <xfcefreak> jtj: no need to reboot just log out and see if it logs you back in
[11:06] <Sivik> PeskyGee, try drip
[11:06] <Raskall> I have a postfix/apt problem. Why does this happen? (startet after upgrade from breezy to dapper): http://pastebin.com/711608
[11:06] <titan_> Sivik, hope I don't mess it up... guess you'll know if I don't show back up, ROFL.
[11:06] <joshbuddy> kinda nutty question...
[11:06] <joshbuddy> but what is the name of the ubuntu server release?
[11:06] <PeskyGee> that will join .avi's? I thought that was just for vob files?
[11:06] <Sivik> titan_, you can always take it back to the last thing that was there but changing the xorg.conf file
[11:06] <jtj> xfce ok automatic login but it wants a pasword
[11:07] <xfcefreak> Tommy1234566: are you trying to dodge the mute?
[11:07] <ompaul> Tommy1234566, for trying to avoid ban you will now be removed from irc have a nice day
[11:07] <bennyp> it's the damn airport card
[11:07] <bennyp> bcm43xx-fwcutter killed it
[11:07] <Sivik> bennyp, try the bcm-users channel
[11:07] <Sivik> PeskyGee, try http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/hoary/graphics/drip
[11:07] <titan_> Sivik, the thing is I have no clue how to do that, lol
[11:07] <xfcefreak> Tommy3D: you need to stop now
[11:08] <Sivik> titan_: the file is under /etc/X11 and all you would have to do is edit where it said either "nvidia" or "nv" to "vesa" and then you could get back into your gui, you can also get into irc via command line by installing irssi
[11:08] <sztajek> ;)
[11:09] <sztajek> ;)
[11:09] <xfcefreak> Sivik: if default install irssi is installed already
[11:09] <PeskyGee> yeah its for dvd's to divx. I need somthing that will join 2 divx files together. Like cd1.avi cd2.avi
[11:09] <igorzolnikov> i tried "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk" but "E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-bin"
[11:09] <Sivik> xfcefreak, yeah, but not everyone installs the default
[11:09] <joshbuddy> also, odd question .. is there an easy way to go from desktop => server release/
[11:09] <joshbuddy> ?
[11:09] <Sivik> xfcefreak, i had to install the server so it didn't install gnome, cause something in gnome, didn't like my computer and made the session to kill itself randomly
[11:10] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, you need to enable the multiverse repository, see !multiverse below
[11:10] <xfcefreak> Sivik: and irssi isnt an installable package either its irssi-text
[11:10] <nickrud> !multiverse
[11:10] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource.
[11:10] <titan_> Sivik, thanks, writing all that down, don't like doing a whole system reinstall when I have no clue how to get back in =P
[11:10] <Sivik> xfcefreak, ok
[11:10] <xfcefreak> server install wont give you irssi i found that to be ummmm well you know ;
[11:10] <xfcefreak> 0
[11:10] <Sivik> xfcefreak, well, thats what i had to install
[11:10] <Sivik> xfcefreak, and now i haven't had any problems with the non-install with gnome
[11:11] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, not 100% sure try System system Administration login window
[11:11] <xfcefreak> Sivik: im just letting you know so he doesnt come back saysing it wont install
[11:11] <milhous> anyone have luck running vmware on Ubuntu 6.06 64-bit?
[11:11] <Sivik> xfcefreak, yeah
[11:11] <calisee> anyone know why my external monitor's resolution off my laptop is a little big to where i can move mouse near edge of screen and it scrolls over a bit?
[11:12] <keleus> what's an "eft"?
[11:12] <Sivik> xfcefreak, i would assume he could have figured that out himself
[11:12] <erUSUL> !tell calisee about fixres
[11:12] <mitcheloc> hello, i'm trying to set up "monodevelop" on my ubuntu machine, it's hitting an impossible dependency... "monodevelop: Depends: monodoc-base (< 1.1.6) but1.1.13-0ubuntu1 is to be installed - E: Broken packages".... i tried googling but could not find any relevant information..... any ideas?
[11:13] <xfcefreak> Sivik: i dont assume anything anymore :(
[11:13] <Sivik> xfcefreak, lol
[11:13] <xfcefreak> keleus: lizard

[11:13] <xfcefreak> ubotu tell igorzolnikov -about multiverse
[11:13] <Sivik> mitcheloc, sudo apt-get install mono-base before trying to install via sudo apt-get install mono-develop
[11:13] <mitcheloc> Sivik: "E: Couldn't find package mono-base"
[11:14] <xfcefreak> mitcheloc: what version of ubuntu are you on?
[11:14] <Sivik> mitcheloc, do apt-cache search mono and see if you see it there, if you don't, you don't have the correct repos yet
[11:14] <igorzolnikov> where can i find it?
[11:14] <Sivik> !repos

[11:15] <CelestialWarrior> Sambaboy stop spamming please.
[11:15] <erUSUL> jtj: System>Administration>Users...
[11:15] <Sivik> mitcheloc, ok, then you don't have the right repos yet
[11:15] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, one more pm, it'll explain what multiverse & other components are
[11:15] <nickrud> !components
[11:15] <ubotu> The rationale behind the different components of the ubuntu repositories (main, restricted, universe, multiverse) is described at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components
[11:15] <JonasRH> Does anyone know *how* experimental NTFS-writing is? Can it really hurt your files?
[11:16] <xfcefreak> lol nickrud
[11:16] <Sivik> mitcheloc, do you have the multiverse enabled
[11:16] <igorzolnikov> but  sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin result Couldn't find package sun-java5-bin
[11:16] <nickrud> !tell igorzolnikov about components
[11:16] <xfcefreak> JonasRH: very adn very unsafe
[11:16] <nickrud> xfcefreak, ;_PP
[11:16] <SAMBABOY> sivik: i created a share on the live cd , but have problem accessind the folder from a remote client cos it wont accept any username and password
[11:16] <Huh1> I need your help guys! I installed lm-sensors and some app so I would be displayed my cpu temp in the panel. however it just states: no sensors found! cpu is amd athlon xp 2,2+, mobo is asus a7v333 (kt333 chipset)
[11:16] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: enable multiverse repo
[11:16] <CelestialWarrior> I'm having troublue loading Ubuntu on my mac mini (ppc).  For some reason as soon as the first component loads, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse I'm using cease to work.  Somebody send me a private message.
[11:16] <SAMBABOY> Celestial Warrior: Am sorry i hit twice
[11:16] <ompaul> Huh1, there is a setup or config program try typing lm<tab> in a terminal and see if you get any clues
[11:16] <Sivik> SAMBABOY, probably has to do wtih the fact its a live cd
[11:16] <Sivik> SAMBABOY, not sure
[11:17] <igorzolnikov> i enabled all repo with binary
[11:17] <CelestialWarrior> SAMBABOY: thanks.
[11:17] <Sivik> igorzolnikov, your going to have to add lines to that file before the multiverse is going to work
[11:17] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, you have to type multiverse into a couple of lines ; the ones that end with universe
[11:17] <ompaul> SAMBABOY, please read the message ubotu sent you it may be useful
[11:17] <SAMBABOY> Sivik: i have created a new user but its stll the same , pls what can i do?
[11:17] <jtj> erusul it wont let me have no password, if i leave it blank will it ask for a passowrd still and jsut want a blank?

[11:18] <SAMBABOY> ompaul:thanks
[11:18] <igorzolnikov> what i must do? i want sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[11:18] <ompaul> !tell igorzolnikov about repos
[11:18] <Huh1> ompaul:  there is lm-syslog-setup but that's something for laptops
[11:18] <igorzolnikov> i enabled all repo
[11:19] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: no you didnt
[11:19] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, it would install if you did
[11:19] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: did you run sudo apt-get update after you enabledc the repos
[11:19] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, check the notes again or do easysource
[11:19] <CelestialWarrior> I'm having troublue loading Ubuntu on my mac mini (ppc).  For some reason as soon as the first component loads, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse I'm using cease to work.  Somebody send me a private message.
[11:19] <fliegenderfrosch> hello, i've got a little problem: since the dapper installation, my internal dvd drive and my external usb-cd burner seem to be switched, so my usb drive is linked to /media/cdrom and when i'm trying to burn a cd it fails, probably because it's trying to write on the dvd drive. does anyone have an idea, how i could switch them back?
[11:20] <Tom3345> ok, who banned me and what for
[11:20] <neutrinomass> Any idea on how to write a script that gets a list of usb adsl modems? /sys appears to be an incomprehensible mess ... :-/
[11:20] <ompaul> jtj, in most cases that is a very bad idea you really want it to allow someone to log in without entering a password to do this check system administration login wind
[11:20] <n30n> CelestialWarrior: It needs a P/S slot keyboard for the install
[11:20] <igorzolnikov> how can i see available components?
[11:20] <CelestialWarrior> n30n: I wish.  Bluetooth.  Built into the machine.
[11:20] <Tom3345> anyone know how to start vncserver up on boot with Ubuntu 5.0
[11:20] <Tom3345> 1
[11:20] <CelestialWarrior> n30n: oh wait
[11:21] <PeskyGee> thanks guys gonna try an install now :-) Cya
[11:21] <CelestialWarrior> n30n: umm... I don't have a P/S slot on my computer in the first place.
[11:21] <ompaul> fliegenderfrosch, remove the external drive, then reboot then there will be no entry for the external drive only the internal one and you can check what is what
[11:21] <n30n> CelestialWarrior: Mac Mini has one
[11:21] <jtj> ompaul yes i do want to do this, and i can get it not to ask for a logon name but it still wants a pasword
[11:21] <Sivik> where do i find What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? if it isn't in the normal location?
[11:21] <fliegenderfrosch> ompaul, ok i'll try it tomorrow
[11:21] <ompaul> !tell igorzolnikov about synaptic
[11:22] <CelestialWarrior> n30n: it has USB.  the keyboard and mouse funtion fine until the window manager (I think) loads.
[11:22] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, that tool has an easy to follow menu structure
[11:22] <n30n> CelestialWarrior: Oh. i don't what the problem is then
[11:22] <tga> I have just bought a mini-pci Orinoco card and can't get it to talk to talk to my router.. any idea what could be wrong? I also have a PCMCIA Orinoco working fine
[11:22] <CelestialWarrior> ne0n: I've read that it worked in 5.10.  So what could have changed, and how can I fix it, if oyu know.
[11:22] <CelestialWarrior> *you
[11:22] <Sivik> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel, if it isn't in the default location?
[11:23] <Huh1> hmm ompaul I could not find any configuring stuff for lm-sensors
[11:23] <neutrinomass> tga: It isn't Davicom based by any chance ?
[11:24] <tga> neutrinomass, nope, it's a Lucent Orinoco
[11:24] <stevekl> Arg, how do I remove stuff from the applications menu (in gnome)?
[11:24] <stevekl> There's a program I removed and it's still there
[11:24] <pdc303> Sivik: synaptic tells you where packages have been extracted to
[11:24] <ompaul> Huh1, I don't use them now I did a while ago but they needed too much calibration to make me happy so I stopped trying
[11:24] <Sivik> pdc303, even the libraries?
[11:24] <igorzolnikov> i enabled all repo and source too... but sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin... again E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-bin
[11:24] <Sivik> i need the location of the C libraries
[11:24] <pdc303> Sivik: yep
[11:24] <pdc303> have a look
[11:24] <neutrinomass> tga: Sorry, can't help. I was having weird issues with a Davicom card and from time to time some chap comes in here with similar problems :)
[11:25] <CelestialWarrior> I'm having troublue loading Ubuntu on my mac mini (ppc).  For some reason as soon as the first component loads, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse I'm using cease to work.  Somebody send me a private message.

[11:25] <tga> bosco, STOP USING e17 AND IT WILL JUST WORK
[11:25] <pdc303> Sivik: I remember I just made a symlink for the Kernel header libs when I installed VMWare. I recall they are in a *similar* location if you browse and look
[11:25] <ompaul> bosco, and stop shouting thanks
[11:25] <Kyral_FreeBSD> and stop shouting
[11:25] <Huh1> ompaul: any other suggestions?
[11:25] <jtj> so does anyone know how i can disable password for the logon please
[11:25] <ompaul> Huh1, no
[11:26] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, replace your sources with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 , those are very good sources, and will clear up this problem
[11:26] <tga> bosco, or mount the device, take a look at dmesg for the device name
[11:26] <stevekl> Arg, how do I remove stuff from the applications menu (in gnome)?

[11:28] <udo> does anyone knows about mutella for ubuntu 6.06?
[11:28] <tga> bosco, if you use Gnome it will just show up on the desktop

[11:28] <bosco> cparker, i dont use gnome and it is USB
[11:28] <stevekl> Does anyone know how to remove a menu item that is listed in the applications menu but does NOT show up in alacarte?

[11:28] <nalioth> labanux: the alternative install cd is a "repository CD"
[11:28] <neutrinomass> stevekl: That's weird... I'm not sure how alacarte works though. Can you please take the time to file a bug report? (or tell my what package it is, so that I do it for you ? )
[11:29] <piratepenguin> how do I find out what package provides a file?
[11:29] <LjL> labanux: don't think so, but i don't think it would be too hard to create some
[11:29] <wshan> have anyone else ever gotten a i/o error using the desktop cd?  I can get to the boot screen but then when I try to start ubuntu or install it says "reading" then pops up with an i/o error and tells me to reboot

[11:30] <Tonren> Heya, guys.  I've whined about this before, but ever since the last kernel upgrade, my laptop touchpad has become literally unusable.  Every time I move the mouse, it reads it as a click on the initial position.  Mouse keys isn't active, either.  Has anyone encountered (and fixed) this problem before?
[11:30] <LjL> !tell udo about mp3
[11:30] <pdc303> jtj: You'lll get a proper answer on the forums but what comes to mind is starting GDM as your-user-name. Disable sudo requiring your password and do "sudo -u your-user-name gdm"    There must be a proper way though ;)
[11:30] <tga> bosco, connect the hdd, then run dmesg. it will tell you the device name. then you can mount that with mount /dev/sda1 (for example) /mnt/myexternalhdd
[11:30] <cparker> bosco: okay... i don't think anyone here will be able to help you with that... try #e on efnet.
[11:30] <neutrinomass> ubotu, tell udo about mp3
[11:30] <Sivik> pdc303, i installed the linux-kernel-devel but it still says its missing the kernel source headers

[11:31] <neutrinomass> stevekl: Brb. Have to log into gnome ...
[11:31] <pdc303> Sivik: VMWare looks in the wrong location
[11:31] <Sivik> yes, i'm trying to figure out the correct location, thats what i asked in the beginning
[11:31] <pdc303> Sivik: Browse to where VMWare is looking. Your headers are near there
[11:31] <Sivik> pdc303, their not
[11:32] <Sivik> pdc303, i don't have any folders in the /usr/src folder

[11:36] <cparker> bosco: i don't think anyone here will be able to help you with that... try #e on efnet.
[11:36] <ompaul> jtj, then your not running linux
[11:36] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Ackeubu_: yah, just assign the homedir to /dev/null
[11:36] <jbirdAngel> igorzolnikov:  type /list in freenode server channel
[11:36] <igorzolnikov> ))))))))))
[11:36] <igorzolnikov> for software preferences
[11:36] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, a user for samba? you mean to login to your linux server from another machine?
[11:37] <igorzolnikov> channels eq repo
[11:37] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, what is your best language?
[11:37] <gigaclon> what do I have to do to watch XviD videos in Ubuntu
[11:37] <Matafome> ompaul, it goes to my webcam
[11:37] <Tonren> Has anyone had any experience debugging laptop touchpad screwups?
[11:37] <Cin> gigaclon, mplayer or xine.
[11:37] <Matafome> but if I try working with kooka
[11:37] <igorzolnikov> plz see software preferences
[11:37] <jtj> could it be security?
[11:37] <ompaul> Matafome, ahh the joys of indistinct hardware
[11:38] <ompaul> Matafome, remove all possible devices and see if it finds your hardware it should
[11:38] <Matafome> but in kooka when i start the program I can select de device
[11:38] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim yeah
[11:38] <Matafome> but kooka says to me Problem: Can't find any scanner
[11:38] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, samba users are seperate from normal unix users
[11:38] <ompaul> jtj, /etc/shadow is where passwords are stored now I did say don't bring it up in the channel
[11:38] <igorzolnikov> i see channel there... etc. Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

[11:39] <igorzolnikov> i have find repo with sun java 5...
[11:39] <jbirdAngel> igorzolnikov: are you asking how to find software repositories?
[11:39] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, use smbpasswd -a username to add a samba user. i.e. you use that username and password to access the files you're sharing by samba
[11:39] <igorzolnikov> YES
[11:39] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, as root btw :P
[11:39] <tpr> ive tried to read RestrictedFormats, but it does not say anything about xvid / divx codecs, how can I play avis encoded with xvid or divx?
[11:39] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: just enable multiverse repo in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:39] <Matafome> ompaul, I'm reading this website http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-gt68xx.5.html
[11:40] <Kyral_FreeBSD> tpr: Easy, Xvid isn't Restricted
[11:40] <Matafome> I don't know how to do the steps in here since this is to red hat based distros
[11:40] <Kyral_FreeBSD> tpr: you need libxvidcore :D
[11:40] <ompaul> Matafome, na, just a second let me get
[11:40] <nickrud> igorzolnikov, find the one that says universe, then select edit: then click the Non-free Multiverse
[11:40] <ompaul> something
[11:40] <igorzolnikov> i selected all repo in software preferences
[11:40] <Matafome> ok
[11:40] <tpr> Kyral_FreeBSD: thats funny :/ last time I was told to read that link
[11:40] <igorzolnikov> all repo enabled
[11:40] <cyphase> dapper doesn't have python bindings for libnotify?
[11:40] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim yeah i have tried that but i get this error Failed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user a. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database ?
[11:40] <jbirdAngel> igorzolnikov: you could also click on system and load synaptic package manager and then click settings repositories, and that lists some, im not sure what else to say though im new to linux, so ill let someone else help you hopefully
[11:40] <Kyral_FreeBSD> tpr: it only applies to Non-Free Proprietary formats. Of which XVid isn't
[11:40] <dmb062082> IM installing a later version of gnome, to hope it works with wallpaper_tray, wp_tray is one of my most wanted apps heh heh
[11:41] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: gksudo "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" when the file opens add the word multiverse after all deb lines that end in universe
[11:41] <jbirdAngel> LeaChim: thank you
[11:41] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, you have to use the same name as a unix user that already exists - i suggest you use your normal username for samba as well
[11:41] <igorzolnikov> omg thanks
[11:41] <LeaChim> jbirdAngel, no problem
[11:41] <roxlu> hi all
[11:41] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: if you read the 30 oms ubotu sent you it told you the same thing
[11:41] <igorzolnikov> i see
[11:41] <xfcefreak> s/oms/pms
[11:41] <tpr> Kyral_FreeBSD: ok, well I installed that but no luck, however i think im missing an AC3 decoder too..?
[11:42] <Kyral_FreeBSD> tpr: no idea there :P
[11:42] <Sivik> pdc303, now i have to figure out how to run and install windows on this vm software
[11:42] <xfcefreak> igorzolnikov: also add a # to the cdrom repos at top and take the # away from any line other than the cdrom repos away
[11:42] <udo> does anyone knows about mutella for ubuntu 6.06?
[11:42] <tpr> Kyral_FreeBSD:  ok thanks for the xvid codec i did miss that
[11:42] <Sivik> i need to shutdown and plug in my other hd
[11:43] <pdc303> Sivik: installing Windows is a breeze :P
[11:43] <pdc303> Sivik: set the ISO in VMWare and click 'Play'
[11:43] <Kyral_FreeBSD> only if you have one of those Driver Discs that come with PreBuilts
[11:43] <xfcefreak> brb reboot
[11:43] <Sivik> but i'm trying to figure out how to run VMWare, other than in terminal
[11:43] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim Then when i try to loggon i get this error message: 'session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE'
[11:44] <pdc303> just run 'vmware'
[11:44] <ompaul> Matafome,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScanningHowTo
[11:44] <Sivik> there we go
[11:44] <pdc303> and it should be in your Applications menu
[11:44] <pdc303> under 'System Tools'
[11:44] <Kyral_FreeBSD> otherwise its while( uninstalled_drivers > 0 ) { find( driver_disc ); install_driver(); reboot() } ;P
[11:44] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim i tried to loggon using smbclient //192.168.0.X/username
[11:44] <Matafome> ompaul, I've unplugged my webcam
[11:44] <calisee> any idea why my mplayer plugin would show video on laptop screen but not to the external monitor that is connected?
[11:44] <ompaul> Matafome,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScanningHowTo
[11:44] <ompaul> just read that
[11:44] <Sivik> pdc303, it says the only thing i can do is to connect a host, do i have to have the windows disc in first?
[11:44] <Matafome> and now i've got this error [gt68xx]  Couldn't open firmware file (`/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/PS1fw.usb'): Arquivo ou diretrio no encontrado ompaul
[11:44] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, which computer are you trying to access using smbclient? your linux one?
[11:45] <ompaul> Matafome, did you read that page I pointed you to?
[11:45] <pdc303> Sivik: you have the VMWare application running? If so, you need to make a new Virtual Machine
[11:45] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim yes
[11:45] <Matafome> I'm opening it
[11:45] <Matafome> let me take a look
[11:45] <udo> what is this mean gnushare.h:67: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of MShareThread with no type gnushare.h:67: error: expected ; before * token
[11:45] <ompaul> Matafome, and how did you install sane and xsane?
[11:45] <Sivik> pdc303, it won't let me, its grayed out
[11:45] <pdc303> ugh
[11:45] <Kyral_FreeBSD> udo: means someone made a coding error :P
[11:46] <Matafome> ompaul, by apt-get
[11:46] <udo> :p
[11:46] <gigaclon> I have enabled all the repos but all I see is KMplayer no plain Mplayer
[11:46] <Sivik> pdc303, do i need to try and reboot the machine?
[11:46] <pdc303> Sivik: no
[11:46] <pdc303> sec...
[11:46] <Sivik> gigaclon, KMplayer is the same thing
[11:46] <udo> how can i fix
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> udo: I don't know the sourcecode for that so don't even ASK how to fix it :P
[11:46] <Sivik> how do i make a print screen?
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> unless your C-fu is strong, file a bug with upstream :P
[11:46] <pdc303> should be ok...
[11:46] <Centaur5> Does anybody know how I can get the headphone jack on my laptop's Intel 82801G sound card?
[11:47] <Ackeubu_> LeaChim this is my config http://rafb.net/paste/results/9vnso246.html
[11:47] <Ackeubu_> smb.conf
[11:47] <pdc303> Sivik: if you run 'vmware' from a terminal, does it report any errors?
[11:47] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, so you have two linux boxes?
[11:47] <roxlu> Can I use the ubuntu Live CD to play movies from my freebsd partition ?
[11:47] <LjL> an easy enough way to list all packages belonging to a given repositories, without changing sources.list?
[11:47] <udo> its a mutella error :)
[11:47] <Kyral_FreeBSD> udo: again, I don't know
[11:47] <Sivik> only about libpng12.so.0: no version information available
[11:48] <Kyral_FreeBSD> and I really don't feel like code diving again today
[11:48] <Ackeubu_> leachim yes and one mac
[11:48] <Sivik> same two errors twice
[11:48] <Kyral_FreeBSD> <== Spent all day recompiling Apache and PHP
[11:48] <pdc303> which is...?
[11:48] <Sivik> /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[11:48] <roxlu> Kyral_FreeBSD: maybe you know this.... Can I play movies from my freebsd partition using the ubuntu live cd ?
[11:48] <Sivik> and
[11:48] <NickGarvey> roxlu: yup
[11:48] <Matafome> ompaul, i think this is my problem  - The driver for your scanner is not being autoloaded
[11:48] <Sivik> /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[11:48] <Kyral_FreeBSD> roxlu: No clue never tried :P
[11:48] <Sivik> pdc303, thats the two errors
[11:48] <pdc303> Sivik: I get that too
[11:48] <pdc303> not a problem
[11:48] <Sivik> pdc303, ok
[11:49] <roxlu> NickGarvey: do you maybe know how I can mount the harddisk/partition of freebsd ?
[11:49] <roxlu> (or will they be recognized by the live cd ? )
[11:49] <NickGarvey> roxlu: do "fdisk -l" to find which partition it is
[11:49] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, have you got a security= line in your smb.conf?
[11:49] <Sivik> pdc303, so do we hae an idea of whats going on?
[11:49] <NickGarvey> roxlu: and then mount /dev/(something) /mnt/(something)
[11:50] <pdc303> Sivik: not at all. My 'New Virtual Machine' button is fine. Do you have a valid registration?
[11:50] <Matafome> ompaul, I've put it working
[11:50] <Sivik> pdc303, i would assume so,
[11:50] <roxlu> oke great! .. and I've got a video out on my computer, Is this supported in ubuntu? (really never done something like this)
[11:50] <LeaChim> Ackeubu_, try adding security = user if it isn't there, or it's commented. then restart samba
[11:50] <pdc303> Sivik: Help ---> About ---> License Information
[11:50] <NickGarvey> roxlu: no idea at all ;) i think googling that would be your best bet
[11:51] <Sivik> ok
[11:51] <eclypse> hey all
[11:51] <roxlu> NickGarvey: oke thanx..
[11:51] <Matafome> ompaul, I've just tried too run xsane from console and it says this error [gt68xx]  Couldn't open firmware file (`/usr/share/sane/gt68xx/PS1fw.usb'): File or directory not found
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> roxlu: or just try it

[11:52] <roxlu> yes
[11:52] <pdc303> ignition19: 'screwed' ?
[11:52] <Sivik> pdc303: license type: site
[11:52] <pdc303> Sivik: not expired?
[11:52] <Matafome> ompaul, them I've renamed the firmware file that I've downloaded from sane website to PS1fw.usb and put the file in this directory /usr/share/sane/gt68xx/
[11:52] <Sivik> pdc303: license expiration 8/7/2006
[11:52] <pdc303> oh

[11:52] <pdc303> umm
[11:52] <Sivik> product expiration 8/6/2006
[11:53] <Matafome> ompaul, how I can put this in the website https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScanningHowTo that you've just gave to me for help other people
[11:53] <pdc303> Sivik: then I suppose you could contact VMWare if you have support
[11:53] <Matafome> when using external backbones
[11:53] <Sivik> pdc303, lol
[11:53] <ompaul> does it now work?
[11:53] <Matafome> ompaul, yes it's working
[11:53] <Matafome> it can be added to supported scanners

[11:57] <DJDut> So does anyone know how to install windows and ubuntu
[11:57] <NoUse> DJDut install windows , then install ubuntu
[11:57] <neutrinomass> DJDut: On a clean system, do Windows first and then ubuntu
[11:58] <rambo3> !fixboot
[11:58] <ubotu> rambo3: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:58] <jetpeach> fglrx driver is probably good
[11:58] <bobby> is there a way to install dapper without booting into the live session?
[11:58] <jetpeach> though i never got mine working right on my machine
[11:58] <NoUse> bobby with the alternate instrall cd
[11:58] <DJDut> nertrinomass i tried that, but i dunno how to resize my partition
[11:58] <brandonn> lol
[11:58] <brandonn> ic
[11:58] <bobby> NoUse: thanks
[11:58] <rambo3> DJDut, search on wiki, in short mount linux to temp folder , chroot into temp folder and run grub-install /dev/hda ?
[11:58] <KuLover> Why is it that every time, during boot, during the graphical progress bar, it hangs at "Checking all filesystems", then switches to text boot and goes about everything normaly.
[11:58] <NoUse> DJDut use gparted on the live cd
[11:58] <pdc303> ignition: boot into Windows and see if it's OK. If it has not been formatted then chkdsk should patch it up nicely
[11:58] <DJDut> Can i install on the same partition WITH windows
[11:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> no
[11:59] <NoUse> DJDut on the same drive yes, same parititon no
[11:59] <neutrinomass> DJDut: No...
[11:59] <DJDut> Wyh not
[11:59] <ignition19> pdc303: i can't boot into windows, it says that there is no operating system
[11:59] <NoUse> DJDut Windows file systems suck
[11:59] <NoUse> DJDut we have to use better ones
[11:59] <ignition19> i tried running chkdsk in recovery tools and it said it was irrecoverable
[11:59] <DJDut> i know thats why im going to ubuntu
[11:59] <DJDut> or OS X
[11:59] <wastrel> ubuntu
[12:00] <DJDut> since its basically linux with eye-candy
