[12:00] <eigenlambda> wake me up when totem can use all the codecs i have installed
[12:00] <pteppic> Lines before it reads ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LUS]  enabled at IRQ 21
[12:00] <ccooke> pteppic: try booting with "pci=noacpi" on the command line
[12:00] <Some_Person> all i need to play is wmv/wma/mp3/mpg
[12:00] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades#head-0171d3953a2ea19e9b4228bcd5cde3ecfb67f7af
[12:00] <rverrips> egenlamda / Someperson - neither totem nor wmp hold a candle to xine-ui
[12:01] <pteppic> I've got acpci=off noapci and nolapci, need pci=noacpi as well?
[12:01] <ccooke> pteppic: they're different options completely
[12:01] <pteppic> okely dokes.
[12:01] <NoUse> Some_Person I think we've listed pretty much every player, so if you aren't satisified, fire up a a web browser and start googling and/or fire up a text editor and start helping make totem better
[12:01] <qwe> this is annoying. I put "blacklist snd_opl3_synth" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, but it still loads whenever rosegarden starts
[12:01] <nicky> any idea?? sbdy??
[12:01] <Draconicus> rverrips: Ah! Thank you. gnomefreak told me to reinstall everything.... XD
[12:01] <eigenlambda> rverrips: and xine sucks compared to totem, much less mplayer or vlc
[12:01] <ccooke> pteppic: I'd suggest trying pci=noacpi, and if that works remove the other acpi option and try again.
[12:02] <ccooke> pteppic: just use the recovery mode boot, it'll be quicker
[12:02] <Some_Person> so wats the best media player
[12:02] <davey_> lol
[12:02] <qwe> anyone have any clues?
[12:02] <NoUse> !better
[12:02] <ubotu> Better for what? Better for whom? Why don't you try them all, then decide for yourself?
[12:02] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, is it server and not graphic ?
[12:02] <nicky> Some_Person, mplayer
[12:02] <rverrips> Glad to help Draconicus ...
[12:02] <mattikoo> Hello. Why sudo don't ask me sudo- user's password? Is it bug?
[12:02] <Some_Person> i have mplayer
[12:02] <Dial_tone> Some_Person: define best
[12:02] <eigenlambda> Some_Person: i like rhythmbox.  if you don't, try quodlibet?
[12:02] <pteppic> ccooke: Gimme a min, the SCSI card needs to boot.
[12:02] <pteppic> Nope, still hanging at the same point.
[12:02] <Some_Person> rhythmbox is what i use now, but no video support
[12:02] <nicky> mattikoo, probably it did it once before
[12:02] <crimsun> udo: and did you try playing music again?
[12:03] <ccooke> pteppic: what machine is it?
[12:03] <nickrud> I have a cd reader and a cdwriter; what's the simplest & fasted way to copy a music disc? (impatient fellow is hovering)
[12:03] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, if you currently have a server, it will stay a server
[12:03] <mattikoo> nicky: Only with login
[12:03] <nicky> mattikoo, so it remembers
[12:03] <HotDrive> good day all
[12:03] <nickrud> legally, by the way
[12:03] <Draconicus> rverrips: I wouldn't have figured it out, having removed the menu from the panel. I'm working on an iMac for my great grandmother... trying to make it old-old-person compatible and such. The desktop, by default, was not being managed by XFCE for some bizarre reason.
[12:03] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, ...after upgrade
[12:03] <pteppic> I get usbcore: registered new driver usbfs; usbcore: registered new driver hub; ohci_hcd ________ OHCI Host Controller
[12:03] <udo> crimsun yes but nothing hear
[12:03] <nicky> anybody knows which plugin do I need to play mp3 files?
[12:03] <NoUse> !mp3
[12:03] <ubotu> it has been said that mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:03] <mattikoo> nicky: Is it new property
[12:03] <pteppic> ccooke: AMD64, ASUS Nforce based mobo.
[12:04] <crimsun> udo: pastebin ``cat /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc*''
[12:04] <HotDrive> need help
[12:04] <rverrips> Draconicus - For an even "lighter" experience you might want to try Blackbox ...
[12:04] <QPAD|W-DND> k
[12:04] <rverrips> HI Hotdrive - What you need help with?
[12:04] <DRaGONeRO> someone of you can help me to compile a exploit?
[12:04] <LjL> DRaGONeRO: err... i guess... not :-)
[12:04] <HotDrive> Dapper updates itself, but does it uninstall the previous kernel?
[12:04] <LjL> HotDrive: no, it doesn't by default
[12:05] <LjL> HotDrive: you should (if you want) uninstall it manually, *after* a reboot
[12:05] <Draconicus> rverrips: I'm not looking for light. I'm looking for something my great grandmother can use. Something simple with only a couple buttons in a huge, easily reconfigured panel. It needs to be a low maintenance project.
[12:05] <Eroick> so I need to get that wierd package and dpkg it in order to play WMA files?
[12:05] <HotDrive> soop, every time a new kernel is installed, junk gets acumulated... right?
[12:05] <Some_Person> i'm downloading amarok
[12:05] <LjL> HotDrive: right.
[12:05] <NoUse> HotDrive for safety's sake, yes
[12:05] <Some_Person> is it good?
[12:05] <LjL> HotDrive: an "apt-get remove linux-image-blah" will fix that
[12:06] <rverrips> Drac' - Blackbox is pretty low maintenance, but so is XFCE - Sure your Gran will be happy with it.
[12:06] <NoUse> Some_Person good for music, doesn't do video
[12:06] <qwe> Some_Person: depending on your taste. I love it
[12:06] <NoUse> Some_Person try kaffeine
[12:06] <Some_Person> WMA files? just get the ffmpeg plugin for gstreamer
[12:06] <HotDrive> LjL: is that the command to use to uninstall?
[12:06] <NoUse> Some_Person I believe it does play WMA files because it uses the xine engine
[12:06] <Some_Person> its in the repos
[12:06] <LjL> HotDrive: yes.
[12:06] <LjL> !tell hotdrive about aptitude
[12:07] <ccooke> pteppic: try booting 2.6.15-23 in emergency mode and find what loads *AFTER* the ohci driver?
[12:07] <qwe> GAH!! I DON'T WANT snd_opl3_synth TO LOAD, DAMMIT!
[12:07] <Eroick> ello? WMA files needs a non-repo package,. rihjgt?
[12:07] <qwe> sorry
[12:07] <NoUse> HotDrive 'dpkg -l | grep ii | grep linux-image' will show all installed kernels
[12:07] <Eroick> qwe: then blacklist it
[12:07] <NoUse> qwe put it in blacklist
[12:07] <qwe> Eroick: I did, that's what's frustrating
[12:07] <pteppic> ccooke: Hangs in same place.
[12:07] <alexcamilo> (xubuntu dead) Hello, I'm thinking of moving my firewall/router from osx 10.3.9 to xubuntu. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to setup xubuntu's NAT and DHCP? Is there a special xubuntu way of doing it or is it just like the other FAQs for linux routers ive found.
[12:07] <QPAD|W-DND> Does anyone know if dapper is good for gameservers (mainly counterstrike servers) ?
[12:07] <HotDrive> gonna try it... brb
[12:08] <ccooke> pteppic: ... so, this has never booted into dapper at all?
[12:08] <pteppic> yes.
[12:08] <ccooke> pteppic: prerelease?
[12:08] <LjL> HotDrive: be sure to have a look at Ubotu's stuff
[12:08] <pteppic> ccooke: before the updates installed.
[12:08] <pteppic> ccooke: automagically installed the kernel updates, no neither kernel will boot.
[12:08] <udo> crimsun the command doesnt work
[12:08] <boricua> from my ubuntu desktop lpq shows oricua@pepino:~$ lpq
[12:08] <boricua> lpq: error - no default destination available
[12:09] <rverrips> QPAD - Dapper Server works great with Linux Steam client
[12:09] <ccooke> pteppic: wait - you're saying 2.6.15-23 *used* to work?
[12:09] <HotDrive> ok, I have kernel 20, 23 and 25
[12:09] <boricua> when i specify lpq -P oricua@pepino:~$ lpq -P hp640c
[12:09] <boricua> hp640c is ready
[12:09] <boricua> no entries
[12:09] <QPAD|W-DND> Does anyone know if dapper is good for gameservers (mainly counterstrike servers) ?
[12:09] <pteppic> yes
[12:09] <mrkoje> hello all
[12:09] <boricua> why do i need to specify -P
[12:09] <LjL> HotDrive: 25 is the current kernel
[12:09] <pteppic> I was happily working on this box.
[12:09] <mrkoje> has anyone tried to do an install from a USB drive?
[12:09] <crimsun> udo: what doesn't work?
[12:09] <mrkoje> any pointers would be nice
[12:09] <qwe> Eroick, NoUse: I put "blacklist snd_opl3_synth" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist but it still gets loaded every time rosegarden starts
[12:09] <ccooke> pteppic: but did -23 boot before?
[12:09] <rverrips> QPAD - Linux Steam works well on Dapper
[12:09] <udo> crimsun the command
[12:09] <mrkoje> my thinkpad x41 doesn't have the ultrabase so no cdrom install for me
[12:09] <pteppic> I then installed the updates and it died.  I cleared and started again and it did exactly the same thing.  Clean install fine.  Install updates, die.
[12:09] <NoUse> qwe blacklist only works at boot, what is rosegarden?
[12:10] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, not steam (the game) I'm talking about game-servers (hlds)
[12:10] <crimsun> udo: which command?
[12:10] <HotDrive> soop, I'll keep 25 and 23 just for sure, but I can remove 20... right?
[12:10] <pteppic> ccooke: Yes.
[12:10] <QPAD|W-DND> If hlds runs any good on dapper
[12:10] <GaiaX11> Does any1 have moodle in ubuntu there?
[12:10] <rverrips> QPAD - I'm talking about steam, the download engine for Half-Life, Counter Strike etc ...
[12:10] <qwe> NoUse: music sequencer. I want it to use timidity in alsa server mode but for some reason it just loads the opl3 module and tries to use that
[12:10] <crimsun> udo: I need to see precisely what you typed and what errors resulted.
[12:10] <ccooke> pteppic: Right. So, it's the initfs that's broken.
[12:10] <Dimitris> I am using the fglrx ati drives for my mobility x300 card.  How do i use tv out? Can someone point me to the right direction?
[12:10] <qwe> and I don't think I even have an opl3 card...
[12:10] <crimsun> GaiaX11: it's in universe.
[12:11] <QPAD|W-DND> I'm not talking about that rverrips.
[12:11] <crimsun> GaiaX11: make sure you're using the version in dapper-security
[12:11] <LjL> HotDrive: yes, i think you can quite safely remove it
[12:11] <NoUse> qwe does the module loading cause problems?
[12:11] <GaiaX11> crimsun, I know but the config is a pain
[12:11] <ccooke> Dimitris: there's an 'aticonfig' utility in the latest drivers
[12:11] <pteppic> ccooke: Boot off emergency disk and regenerate?
[12:11] <pteppic> chroot in?
[12:11] <LjL> HotDrive: you could probably remove 23 too, but if you don't mind too much keeping it, having a fall-back is always nice
[12:11] <qwe> NoUse: yes, because rosegarden decides to use that as its midi interface instead of timidity
[12:11] <Eroick> is there a linux utility to convert mp3 to WMA?
[12:11] <HotDrive> million dollar question... how?
[12:11] <lonegeek> does anyone know how i can repair a ntfs partiton? or convert it to fat32
[12:11] <rverrips> QPAD install a Dapper server, then run http://storefront.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.bin and you'll have a Halflife server up and running in no-time
[12:11] <ccooke> pteppic: it's worth a try. 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.15-25-k7' I'd imagine.
[12:11] <udo> ok its works :)
[12:11] <LjL> Eroick: "apt-cache search mp3 wma" ;)
[12:11] <NoUse> qwe ah, well you can copy the module to your home directory (for backup) and then remove it from /lib/modules
[12:12] <administrador> #debian-es
[12:12] <Eroick> LjL: im not on ubuntu right now
[12:12] <qwe> NoUse: yeah, that seemed a little drastic but I think that's what I'm going to have to do
[12:12] <GaiaX11> crimsun, once i tried to install that in debian, but it was so difficult that i gave up
[12:12] <Dimitris> ccooke: Thanks i will try that
[12:12] <ccooke> pteppic: you might want to grab linux-386 and linux-686 while you're there, just incase it's a -k7 specific bug (or whichever kernel you're using)
[12:12] <NoUse> qwe 'locate op13 | grep modules'
[12:12] <pteppic> linux-image-2.6.15-25-amd64
[12:12] <NoUse> qwe good luck
[12:12] <GaiaX11> crimsun, perhaps in ubuntu it will be not so hard
[12:12] <qwe> NoUse: thanks
[12:12] <si|vercat> I want an iptables ruleset with masquerading, but restrictive. I want to add the IP's to computers granted access to "the outside" manually.. what's the basic idea here, can anyone help?
[12:12] <ccooke> pteppic: ah, nice and easy then
[12:12] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, I'm a game-server configurator. I know how that works, but i wanna know if dapper is stable for game-servers like counterstrike or not ,)
[12:12] <HotDrive> LjL: I've read the ubotu... can I get aptitude from ADD/REMOVE programs?
[12:12] <rverrips> lonegeek - NTFS to Fat32 is a bit of a problem ...
[12:13] <LjL> HotDrive: no need, you have it installed.
[12:13] <rverrips> QPAD - It's rocksolid stable
[12:13] <Draconicus> HotDrive: Aptitude comes with Ubuntu.
[12:13] <LjL> Eroick: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16025
[12:13] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16026
[12:13] <GaiaX11> crimsun, this is the reason why i am asking if any1 has already installed it in ubuntu
[12:13] <HotDrive> ok, is it on the desktop or can it only be used from the command prompt?
[12:14] <pteppic> Can you chroot in from blackbox?
[12:14] <lonegeek> well i need help getting something to work..... i treid to resize ntfs partiton with partition magic and it tanked at 99 percent...now windows doesnt boot up ...gets to loading screen  then restarts....and linux wont mount it anymore
[12:14] <LjL> HotDrive: prompt
[12:14] <ccooke> si|vercat: Are you comfortable with iptables commands?
[12:14] <LjL> HotDrive: but you *can* use Synaptic to do the same thing, at any rate. (though i prefer aptitude for the reason that Ubotu gives)
[12:14] <HotDrive> hum... got it... nice!
[12:14] <HotDrive> gonna try to do it without FUBAR all of this... brb
[12:15] <Eroick> LjL: none of those look like console apps
[12:15] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, You ever runned servers onit?
[12:15] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16026
[12:15] <crimsun> udo: I saw, please give me a moment. I'm busy.
[12:15] <LjL> Eroick: oh, did you say console?
[12:15] <Eroick> LjL: yeah
[12:15] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, could you please highlight my nick (qpad|w-dnd) when typing so i can find the text easily? (it gets red)
[12:16] <QPAD|W-DND> highly appriciated if so :P
[12:16] <ccooke> QPAD|W-DND: The correct way to do that is to set your *own* client to highlight your nick
[12:17] <anonymouse> =( tried to apt-get upgrade from beta to current and stuck on the tan screen for reboot
[12:17] <anonymouse> went into single user mode and trying apt-get upgrade again,
[12:17] <mrkoje> Does anyone have a clue how to make a usb external hdd bootable?
[12:17] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, cant pm you, not registered, can you join #warlock.bla ?
[12:17] <anonymouse> but anyone else have that prob?
[12:17] <LjL> Eroick: well actually i don't think you did :-P anyway, for that sort of thing, from the console, you'd usually just pipe an mp3 player into a wma encoder. so what you need is a wma encoder...
[12:17] <ccooke> QPAD|W-DND: channels like this should be kept to basic plain text wherever posible - for a start, many of the people here use text-based IRC clients...
[12:17] <pteppic> mrkoje: Set as usb bootable in your BIOS?
[12:17] <mrkoje> yes
[12:17] <QPAD|W-DND> I know, but however. Nothing to have an discussion about ;)
[12:17] <Eroick> and an mp3 player too, LjL
[12:17] <QPAD|W-DND> rverrips, join #warlock.bla
[12:18] <LjL> Eroick: well that's easier to find i guess, wma'll be harder
[12:18] <mrkoje> pteppic, what I want (need) to do is move the Ubuntu 6.06 from the CDROM to the external usb hdd and try to boot it from that on my thinkpad laptop (no cdrom in the thinkpad)
[12:18] <arnold> Hello how can I unmount a diviser??
[12:18] <mrkoje> pteppic, I've tried the whole pxe and its a pain in the but
[12:18] <LjL> Eroick: i guess ffmpeg supports wma though
[12:18] <ccooke> arnold: what's a diviser?
[12:18] <phanter> anybody got wengophone working on dapper. in mine it cannot find the sound device (all other sound and even skype is working)
[12:18] <Eroick> LjL: cool
[12:18] <arnold> a partition?
[12:18] <rixxon> general linux question - is it possible to run a server in console mode, and host some remote desktop server with gnome? :P
[12:19] <tempered> if I install ubuntu on top of windows, can I still read the NTFS drives?
[12:19] <ccooke> arnold: ah, right. How did you mount it?
[12:19] <QPAD|W-DND> ok rverrips, sounds good. Did the ping jump anything, and do you know what the server fps was at? (( i cannot pm you, Im not registered with freenode ))
[12:19] <LjL> Eroick: i think mplayer and ffmpeg are your best bets
[12:19] <arnold> it mounted itself
[12:19] <pteppic> mrkoje: Can't help unfortunately.
[12:19] <mrkoje> pteppic, thanks anyway
[12:19] <ccooke> arnold: how? Is it a usb disk or external device?
[12:19] <pteppic> Got a network port?
[12:19] <arnold> it is vfat...
[12:20] <ccooke> arnold: do you know what device it is?
[12:20] <bur[n] er> seb_: u there?
[12:20] <arnold> and not external...
[12:20] <arnold> yes
[12:20] <arnold> hda1
[12:20] <Zambezi> Is there an application that can check my gmail and notify we when I get mail without downloading them?
[12:20] <Dial_tone> gmail notify for firefox
[12:20] <bur[n] er> Zambezi: gmail-notify
[12:20] <zybrid> Zambezi: gmail notify
[12:21] <ccooke> arnold: Right. You need to remove the line in /etc/fstab that refers to it. But you need to be *very* careful to make sure you only change that line.
[12:21] <HotDrive> LjL: I've found the image... how do I select it to remove?
[12:21] <arnold> ok fine
[12:21] <ccooke> arnold: use 'sudo gedit /etc/fstab' to edit the file
[12:21] <MusicEatingPanda> how would i change my defualt Media player to Xine and removetotem without needing to remove ubuntu desktop?
[12:21] <LjL> HotDrive: in synaptic, don't know, i don't even have it installed
[12:21] <arnold> I did it...
[12:21] <iSteve> oi ... what's the ubuntu alternative of debian's /etc/debian_version ?
[12:21] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'Surround' 80% on && amixer set 'Center' on && amixer set 'LFE' 80% on && amixer set 'IEC958 Output' off
[12:21] <ccooke> arnold: Also, make sure it says 'vfat' on the line before you remove it.
[12:21] <arnold> it did say so
[12:21] <pteppic> oh smurf, I forgot to get the 386...
[12:22] <MusicEatingPanda> smurfs! where!
[12:22] <iSteve> (ie. which file in /etc identifies the version of ubuntu base installation)
[12:22] <arnold> ccooke: it did
[12:22] <MusicEatingPanda> >>
[12:22] <HotDrive> I'm using aptitude... and just found that I can use the mouse in the window... :))
[12:22] <MusicEatingPanda> <<
[12:22] <Zambezi> budward, zybrid: Thanks. I searched on google on Ubuntu packaged, but didn't find anything.
[12:22] <ccooke> arnold: right. now, that'll take care of the next boot. To unmount it this boot, make sure every folder you have open on that partition is closed, any files on the partition are closed and type 'sudo umount /dev/hda1'
[12:23] <arnold> what should I do then?
[12:23] <ic56> tempered: what do you mean "install on top of windows"?  Do you mean overwrite the partition that contains windows, and install Linux on it?
[12:23] <arnold> ok great thanks very much
[12:24] <ccooke> arnold: no problem.
[12:24] <Eroick> LjL: and for the other way around I need mplayer and lame, right?
[12:24] <pteppic> Aha!
[12:24] <ccooke> pteppic: ?
[12:25] <HotDrive> LjL: Aptitude is really a good tool, thanks for the hint!
[12:25] <smahoney> Hey all, anybody up to helping me out with some install issues?
[12:25] <LjL> Eroick: mplayer handles mp3, so don't think you'd need lame at all
[12:25] <zybrid> smahoney: tell your problem
[12:25] <pteppic> I appear to have booted to single-user mode under .23.  Now to see if I can do the same under .25 (noapic, nolapic, acpi=off, pci=acpi)
[12:25] <phanter> smahoney: shoot
[12:25] <smahoney> I got through the install just fine, until it tried to install GRUB, at which point it failed
[12:25] <ccooke> pteppic: what was the fix, then?
[12:26] <Eroick> LjL: but to convert the other way.
[12:26] <zybrid> smahoney: what was the problem?
[12:26] <smahoney> Well, GRUB failed to install
[12:26] <janice> hey, I'm trying to install win98 in ubuntu using vmware server, but when I go to install it windows 98 says that it's going to repartition the drive and everything will be erased... That's just the "virtual drive", right?  It won't actually delete my hard drive, will it?
[12:26] <pteppic> ask me in a min, I'm checking against .25
[12:26] <smahoney> So I can't boot into Linux
[12:26] <zybrid> janice: yes.l
[12:26] <LjL> Eroick: yeah, mplayer i think supports both mp3 and wma. so you can use it to convert from one to the other, without anything else
[12:26] <janice> thanks, zybrid
[12:26] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16028
[12:26] <Eroick> cool, LjL
[12:27] <zybrid> smahoney: do you recieve any error-msg?
[12:27] <LjL> Eroick: oh, hold on, i forgot. you don't want mplayer, but its "sister" mencoder, which is intended for converting formats. mplayer is intended to actually play them
[12:28] <MusicEatingPanda> how would i change my defualt Media player to Xine and removetotem without needing to remove ubuntu desktop?
[12:28] <smahoney> zybrid: It started with the message "failed to install GRUB"
[12:28] <smahoney> and then "You will need to boot manually with the /vmlinuz kernel on partition /dev/hda1 and root=/dev/hda1 passed as a kernel argument"
[12:28] <jrib> MusicEatingPanda: for your second question, you can't since totem is a dependency of ubuntu-desktop, for your first question:
[12:28] <jrib> !defaultapp
[12:28] <ubotu> To change the default app for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties, then the "Open With" tab and change the setting
[12:29] <MusicEatingPanda> ugh
[12:29] <MusicEatingPanda> ok
[12:29] <MusicEatingPanda> thanks
[12:29] <MusicEatingPanda> bye
[12:29] <jrib> MusicEatingPanda: are you aware that totem can be used with a xine backend?
[12:29] <Zambezi> budward, zybrid: Thanks again. It's perfect.
[12:29] <zybrid> smahoney: Have you tried again?
[12:29] <zybrid> Zambezi: its sure is!
[12:30] <smahoney> During that install session I backed up and tried to install GRUB again, but it did the same thing.  Then I rebooted, and it went straight into Windows (which of course makes sense if there's no GRUB).
[12:30] <zybrid> smahoney: Do you have an virusprotection activated in your BIOS?
[12:31] <zybrid> smahoney: thats preventing grub to install on MTA
[12:31] <zybrid> MBL
[12:31] <zybrid> MBR even. :)
[12:31] <Jinkguns> Dear god.
[12:31] <Jinkguns> I got no dvd playback.
[12:31] <smahoney> I checked for that, but couldn't find anything - I looked in both my BIOS setup and my Windows antivirus.  Any idea what, more specifically, I should check for?
[12:31] <Jinkguns> Easy Ubuntu didn't work.
[12:31] <jrib> ubotu: tell Jinkguns about dvd
[12:32] <jrib> !listkeys dvd

[12:32] <fiveiron> hey here's a strange q.  i have a 15" LCD on my fileserver, it was working fine in 1024x768 in gnome on freebsd, but when i go to that res in Ubuntu, i have about a 15px black bar at the top of my screen which is pushing the desktop down so I can't see the bottom panel
[12:32] <zybrid> smahoney: hmm.
[12:32] <fiveiron> any ideas?
[12:32] <Mikelo> anyone?
[12:32] <pteppic> ccooke: resolved: sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.15-25-amd64, then noacpi, noacpi, apci=off pci=noacpi
[12:32] <jrib> ubotu: tell Jinkguns about libdvdcss

[12:33] <MattSta> how do i install new skins on AMSN
[12:33] <zybrid> fiveiron: do you have the right drivers installed? ctrl alt + or - to change resolution.
[12:33] <HotDrive> LjL: still there?
[12:33] <sip> spanish chanel please
[12:33] <zybrid> smahoney: it should be the antivirus-hijackprotection system in your bios.
[12:33] <Seveas> !es
[12:33] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.

[12:33] <LjL> HotDrive: yes
[12:33] <zybrid> smahoney: are you installing the desktopversion inside the desktoplive cd?
[12:33] <sip> tks bod
[12:33] <smahoney> zybrid: No, I'm using the alternate installer CD
[12:33] <zybrid> fiveiron: replace driver = unknown with vesa in xorg.conf
[12:34] <Mikelo> how do i save a live streamin flash movie from a site? please!!
[12:34] <pteppic> Second problem.

[12:34] <jrib> Mikelo: this may work: wget url_of_file
[12:35] <zybrid> fiveiron: seems right.
[12:35] <lonegeek> how can i convert xvids to dvd....preferably with a gui
[12:35] <smahoney> zybrid: I didn't even think to check that - assumed the installer would do it automatically.  I'll reboot and give it a try though.  Thanks!
[12:35] <zybrid> fiveiron: try the "vesa" driver if it works better
[12:35] <Mikelo> jrib, where do i get the url?
[12:35] <fiveiron> will do
[12:35] <fiveiron> brb
[12:36] <jrib> Mikelo: the html source, or if you use firefox, tools > page info > media may be helpful
[12:36] <zybrid> MattSta: try googling on amsn + skins
[12:36] <pteppic> Heh, or not resolved.
[12:36] <sip> join #ubuntu-es

[12:38] <udo> what is 'IEC958 Output
[12:38] <zybrid> Frederick: your apt-get were drunk?
[12:38] <udo> crimsun what is 'IEC958 Output
[12:38] <zybrid> IEC958 (named IEC60958 at 1998) is the standard for AES/EBU and S-PDIF
[12:38] <crimsun> udo: you didn't set it like I asked you to.
[12:39] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'IEC958 Output' off

[12:40] <SurfnKid> quesiton about copying from putty in Windows
[12:40] <SurfnKid> How can I copy files on a linux box thru putty
[12:40] <enyc> SurfnKid: well...
[12:41] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16029
[12:41] <Frederick> so any ideas?
[12:41] <enyc> SurfnKid: PuTTY is not a sftp/scp client.... it comes with commandline scp however...
[12:41] <rigonatti> hi all !
[12:41] <SurfnKid> Ok, recommend me a good sftp client
[12:41] <zybrid> SurfnKid: cp
[12:41] <enyc> SurfnKid: you may like to use FileZilla (http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/)
[12:41] <SurfnKid> ok
[12:41] <spikeb> aren't sftp/scp part of ssh now? putty is an ssh client
[12:42] <zybrid> SurfnKid: oh, use winscp
[12:42] <SurfnKid> ah i see
[12:42] <rigonatti> does anyone where i can find the description for the parameters ( kopete )  -caption "%c" %i %m %u  in some commands?
[12:42] <zybrid> winscp uses ssh for filetransfers, this is a windowsclient.
[12:42] <enyc> spikeb: sftp and srp are extensions/tunnels of forms over the top of ssh
[12:42] <anonymouse> !hal
[12:42] <ubotu> HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) is a library and daemon to get hotplug notifications as hardware is added and removed.
[12:42] <SurfnKid> zybrid: anything i have to enable on the server side. Will WinSCP let me copy stuff from root directly
[12:42] <zybrid> SurfnKid: sure
[12:42] <SurfnKid> zybrid: perfect thx guys
[12:42] <anonymouse> getting "Internal Error! Failed to initialize HAL".  any idears?
[12:42] <SurfnKid> i guess putty is just command based stuff
[12:42] <zybrid> SurfnKid: if you have root activated.
[12:42] <enyc> SurfnKid: not really.... FileZilla or another sftp/scp will work...
[12:43] <SurfnKid> zybrid: you mean log in as sudo
[12:43] <Frederick> oki how do I get gcc 3.4 my adept seems messed up...
[12:43] <lonegeek> how can i create a dvd with 2 xvid video files.....
[12:43] <enyc> In short... in ubuntu.... if you can login as root you can scp as root ;-)
[12:43] <SurfnKid> enyc: with FileZilla but not WinSCP
[12:43] <zybrid> SurfnKid: no, if you want root access in winscp, you need to login with root
[12:43] <anonymouse> meh.. reboot fixed it n/m
[12:44] <anonymouse> we are truly approaching windows desktop ;)
[12:44] <zybrid> SurfnKid: and to log in with root, you need to set a password for the root account in you ubuntu.
[12:44] <SurfnKid> I wanna copy files  period :P

[12:51] <lonegeek> is there any sort of ntfs partion recovery tool for linux?
[12:51] <lonegeek> which would allow me to backup data
[12:51] <mukund> apparently it's a known firewall bug
[12:51] <mukund> windowd firewall bug which's causing all these disconnects
[12:51] <crimsun> Frederick: manpages-dev
[12:51] <udo> crimsun no nothing hearing
[12:51] <dalphi> Hi, is there a web page like http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages for ubuntu?
[12:51] <crimsun> Frederick: you may find manpages-posix-dev useful, too
[12:52] <mukund> connect to a different port apart from 6667 (to avoid the disconnects)
[12:52] <crimsun> dalphi: try the packages.ubuntu.com counterpart
[12:52] <dalphi> perfect, thank you crimsun
[12:52] <mukund> Trae: !
[12:52] <crimsun> udo: pastebin ``amixer'', please
[12:52] <Trae> mukund, heyaz buddy
[12:52] <Trae> I keep disco'ing :(
[12:52] <Frederick> thanks crimsun
[12:53] <mukund> Trae: it's a known windows firewall bug.. a person here is exploiting it
[12:53] <Seveas> mukund, not windows firewall
[12:53] <mukund> Trae: if freenode supports it, connect to a different port than 6667
[12:53] <Seveas> linksys/netgear routers
[12:53] <mukund> ah
[12:53] <Seveas> and port 8001 can be used
[12:53] <nalioth> mukund: you can use port 8001
[12:53] <Trae> so /server irc.freenode.net 8001
[12:53] <nalioth> mukund: it's a linksys bug
[12:53] <mukund> ok (i'm not affected myself ;)
[12:54] <rmbrain> is there an incentive to only using open source software and not enabling multiverse?
[12:54] <nix4me> nope
[12:54] <jrib> rmbrain: you don't support proprietary software
[12:54] <rmbrain> jrib: i know, but what are the advantages?
[12:54] <SurfnKid> talk about a split
[12:54] <rmbrain> if any
[12:54] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16030
[12:56] <serverman> .+
[12:56] <jrib> rmbrain: it's the advantages of using open source instead of closed source.  So everyone can see the code and you know there isn't some backdoor in a program.  On the other hand, for software with no open source alternatives, you will be limiting yourself (for example, consider flash)
[12:56] <rmbrain> jrib: is Gnash ready for ubuntu yet?
[12:57] <SurfnKid> wow Winscp is sweet
[12:57] <anonymouse> SurfnKid: yes.  yes it is.
[12:57] <SurfnKid> didnt have to do anything else but log in as root
[12:57] <Frederick> hmmm I do man strstr and it doesnt find anything
[12:57] <LjL> does the Ubuntu installer offer an option to use a swap file rather than a swap partition? also, can the installer create an extended partition containing root and swap, without much hassle? if not, can the text-mode installer do either?
[12:57] <SurfnKid> and whoala, commander screen
[12:57] <anonymouse> it make other sftp clients look like an idiot.
[12:57] <jrib> rmbrain: it doesn't seem to be in the repos.  I tried it a few months ago and it was "ok" but it is still under development
[12:57] <Frem> My USB mouse keeps dieing. It will work for a little bit, but then it stops. And when it stops working, all the USB ports also stop working. Nothing like this happens in XP...
[12:57] <nalioth> rmbrain: open source is also good in that if you have a program that does most of what you want, you can open the source code and add or refine the code to work more the way you want (without going to jail)
[12:57] <rmbrain> jrib: thanks.  do you use proprietary stuff?
[12:58] <jrib> rmbrain: yes, when no open source alternative is available
[12:58] <SurfnKid> anonymouse: definitely, do your remember LL3 Laplink DOS version. It had an old command line type window to exchange files. So used to that still even after 10 yrs of not using it
[12:58] <Rambo3> Frem: well it does if you out it on save energy when idle
[12:58] <Smeggy> does anyone have any solutions to pitiful battery life in linux (ubuntu) as opposed to what I get on other OS on the same machine? I get about 2 hours with Ubuntu as opposed to 4 or 5 normally
[12:58] <bobstro> Smeggy:  are you using laptop power management ?
[12:58] <jrib> rmbrain: probably the biggest is my video drivers since the open source ones don't work as well for me
[12:58] <Smeggy> bobstro, yes
[12:59] <mnvl> what's an option to ls to print the whole path?
[12:59] <Rambo3> Smeggy: same kernels?
[12:59] <bobstro> rmbrain:  support
[12:59] <Frem> Rambo3: I'll just be browsing the internet or typing up an email and it randomly dies. I'm not putting the machine into hybernation or anything.
[01:00] <Smeggy> Rambo3, different OS entirely... mac osx (4-5 hours)... any linux = ~2 hours
[01:00] <SurfnKid> rmbrain: thats why i never liked linux cuz sometimes you had to buy a few things. so I kept being MS guy all my life
[01:00] <rmbrain> jrib: so using proprietary software doesnt hurt the community?  i fail to see this.
[01:00] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16030
[01:00] <SurfnKid> rmbrain: but not anymore! thanks to ubuntumbambam!
[01:00] <Smeggy> I understand that i won't get the same battery life because linux isn't as good at power management, however half the time is a bit extreme?
[01:00] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'Spread Front to Surround and Center/LFE' on
[01:00] <jrib> rmbrain: we should continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic so others can get support
[01:01] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'Capture' off
[01:01] <bur[n] er_> Smeggy: turn down brightness?
[01:01] <bobstro> Smeggy:  i've used ubuntu on my dell, and it did reasonably well. at least lasted through my flight.
[01:01] <bobstro> Smeggy:  i suspect it's a combination of settings, including drive idle, screen and cpu settings perhaps.
[01:01] <Smeggy> bur[n] er_, that helps a little, but its only an extra 10 minutes or so
[01:01] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' 0
[01:01] <Smeggy> bobstro, yeah, its just a little disappointing, basically the only thing stopping me from using ubuntu full time instead of osx on my laptop
[01:02] <MrRio_> My dell lasts longer on Ubuntu, stays at 600Mhz all the time, and only jumps to 1.5ghz when i open programs
[01:02] <bobstro> Smeggy:  i've only started with ubuntu on mine, so i can't give any details, but there's a lot of linux laptop support out there.
[01:02] <bobstro> MrRio_:  that's encouraging!
[01:02] <crimsun> Smeggy: HZ being set to 1000 drains battery life.
[01:03] <crimsun> Smeggy: it has already been changed to 250 for Edgy.
[01:03] <mnvl> help what do i use to search for a file somewhere in my home directory?
[01:03] <Smeggy> crimsun, interesting, what does this mean?
[01:03] <vincenz> Anyone know why dapper is so sluggish?
[01:03] <SurfnKid> zybrid: what are the winscp ports? so i can set up on my router to access remotely
[01:03] <zybrid> SurfnKid: 22
[01:03] <vincenz> When I type in a terminal window (gnome-terminal) it feels sluggish, and when I launch a terminal, the blue outline that expands from the button in my menu is also incredibly slow
[01:03] <crimsun> Smeggy: what does what mean?
[01:03] <SurfnKid> oh thats it
[01:03] <zybrid> SurfnKid: winscp uses the usual ssh
[01:03] <udo> crimsun i set all of them
[01:03] <SurfnKid> zybrid: even for file transfer
[01:03] <crimsun> udo: and now pastebin ``amixer'' again
[01:03] <zybrid> SurfnKid: yes
[01:04] <Smeggy> crimsun, I assume that hz is set in kernel configuration? ie. build a new kernel to change it on dapper?
[01:04] <SurfnKid> wow cool, no wonder its so common and uncomplicated
[01:04] <Definity> hi i just got a wireless card with atheros chipset and i cant seam to get "iwlist scanning" to work or connect to any ap's?
[01:04] <crimsun> Smeggy: yes.
[01:04] <Rambo3> can somene post link to smart questions in topic
[01:04] <crimsun> Rambo3: it's already a factoid.
[01:04] <vincenz> Anyone know anything about this?
[01:04] <Arafangi1n> vincenz: Who knows, but if you're lucky, it's because you don't have hardware acceleration on your card or don't have enough memory. If those aren't your problems, then it's harder to make a guess as to what the problem may be.
[01:05] <zybrid> Rambo3: ubuntuguide.org
[01:05] <Seveas> zybrid, ubuntuguide.org is bad
[01:05] <Rambo3> zybrid: what ?
[01:05] <zybrid> Seveas: why?
[01:05] <Rambo3> i ment this page http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

[01:05] <Seveas> zybrid, on help.ubuntu.com all things work ok
[01:06] <vincenz> Arafangi1n: well it used to be fine... Maybe it has to do with the faulty fgrlx card?
[01:06] <Arafangi1n> vincenz: If it's faulty - definetly.
[01:06] <Seveas> zybrid, if you leave out correct and up to data, there's not much to be ok....
[01:06] <vincenz> Arafangi1n: Erm the faulty fgrlx driver (I have ATI)
[01:06] <Definity> any one know how to change the transmitting power of the wireless card in ubuntu
[01:06] <vincenz> Anyone have any experience with ATI cards and could help me tweakmy xorg.conf?
[01:06] <crimsun> udo: why is 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' being set to 1?
[01:06] <Arafangi1n> vincenz: I just use the proprietary drivers, and use their config tools.
[01:06] <crimsun> udo: didn't you set it to 0?
[01:07] <SurfnKid> can you just save a regular bmp,jpg,gif to xpm.gz or do you have to conver it somehow with gimp
[01:07] <vincenz> Arafangi1n: how?
[01:07] <SurfnKid> vincenz: whats the prob
[01:07] <antox> hi. I've made a kernel, but w/o -initrd switch. :D is it possible to solve this trouble with a little effort or should I remake?
[01:07] <vincenz> SurfnKid: typing in terminal feels sluggish and launching windows is slow
[01:07] <udo> crimsun how
[01:07] <SurfnKid> ATI what type
[01:07] <vincenz> x300
[01:07] <SurfnKid> is it supported in the ATI page. if so what version did you use
[01:07] <Definity> any one know how to change the transmitting power of the wireless card in ubuntu
[01:08] <udo> i must uninstall ubuntu i give up :)
[01:08] <Rug> Howdy all
[01:08] <vincenz> SurfnKid: ati page?
[01:08] <vincenz> @ubotu ati
[01:09] <SurfnKid> Definity: /etc/network/interfaces   however the power im not sure. you can set the rate AFAIK
[01:09] <vincenz> SurfnKid: Where is the ATI page?
[01:09] <SurfnKid> ubotu tell vincenz about ATI
[01:09] <Definity> AFAIK?
[01:09] <SurfnKid> As far as I know
[01:09] <Definity> i thought it was moer along the line of "iwlist txpower ath0"
[01:09] <Definity> well tahts where i got to
[01:10] <Rug> Where/What is the log/error file for fstab errors?   I have 3 NFS shares that my box isn't mounting on boot.
[01:10] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16033
[01:10] <antox> Definity: isn't that with iwconfig?
[01:10] <udo> crimsun check again
[01:10] <Definity> probaly
[01:10] <SurfnKid> Definity: yeah manually i would say
[01:10] <Definity> ok
[01:10] <SurfnKid> Definity: yep
[01:10] <arno> Hello, How can I get rude of windows properly (I have both ubuntu and windows on the same computer)? thanks
[01:11] <Rug> arno: easy answer: delete the partition that Windows is on
[01:11] <iceyes> where do i change the boot stuff so i can start from correct hdd? it refuse to start hda1 i wanna start hdb1 i have to change it everytime i start the computer
[01:11] <SurfnKid> Definity: havent tried changing power transmission, give it a go and put a number :P
[01:11] <vincenz> SurfnKid: yes it's a supported one
[01:11] <Phenom_> Hello
[01:11] <SurfnKid> vincenz: have you gone thru the setup
[01:11] <Definity> lol, well its worth a try
[01:11] <SurfnKid> vincenz: instructions, steps, downloading the ati driver n punching a few commands
[01:12] <arno> Rug: I did it but in grub it still appears.... However it doesn't work anymore....
[01:12] <vincenz> SurfnKid: yes and my xorg.conf has not changed
[01:12] <SurfnKid> vincenz: its 'ati' instead of 'fglrx'
[01:12] <vincenz> SurfnKid: the instructions steps refer to fglrx
[01:12] <antox> should I remake a kernel, if -initrd switch was forgotten?
[01:12] <vincenz> SurfnKid: at least on that page
[01:12] <arno> Rug: I mean windows doesn't work but still appears in grub
[01:12] <Rug> arno, ahh
[01:12] <iceyes> !mount
[01:12] <ubotu> I heard mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[01:12] <SurfnKid> vincenz: when you do the dpkg-reconfigure, do you chose fglrx
[01:12] <si|vercat> I want an iptables ruleset with masquerading, but restrictive. I want to add the IP's to computers granted world access manually. does anyone have an example script for this?
[01:12] <Rambo3> arno grub-update or update-grub  or edit manualy
[01:13] <crimsun> udo: now try the aplay command
[01:13] <Rug> arno: then why worry about it?
[01:13] <iceyes> where do i change the boot stuff so i can start from correct hdd? it refuse to start hda1 i wanna start hdb1 i have to change it everytime i start the computer
[01:13] <vincenz> SurfnKid: that's no longer the method to do it according the page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:13] <bobstro> si|vercat:  nothing right at hand, but it's the same syntax as any other rule
[01:13] <vincenz> SurfnKid: that was the old method for breezy
[01:13] <Phenom_> Can I get some help with configuring Winetools please?
[01:14] <udo> crimsun aplay how?
[01:14] <Phenom_> I am getting a few errors, but pastebin is taking forever, is there another pastebin I could use?
[01:14] <Akbar> can you dist-upgrade from debian sarge to dapper drake?
[01:14] <crimsun> udo: ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav''
[01:14] <antox> had anybody created ramdisk manuallY?
[01:14] <arno> Rug: I'd like ubuntu to start alone directly...
[01:14] <Akbar> :P
[01:14] <SurfnKid> vincenz: let me find you a link see if youve gone thru it
[01:14] <bobstro> si|vercat:  there are some good firewall howtos that have examples.
[01:15] <arno> Rambo3: Is that enough?
[01:15] <Rambo3> antox: initrd file ? yes
[01:15] <Rug> arno: ok easy answer (again)  edit: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:15] <si|vercat> bobstro, I'll try some searches, thanks
[01:15] <arno> Rug & Rambo3: ok thanks very much
[01:16] <arno> bye everybody. you are always usefull great
[01:16] <udo> crimsun nothing hearing
[01:16] <SurfnKid> vincenz: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide
[01:16] <antox> Rambo3: I decided to try what is to compile a kernel... but I did that without -initrd switch. should I start anew? isn't there an easy way to fix that?
[01:16] <bobstro> si|vercat:  something like "iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 --source 192.168.1.1 -j SNAT --to" should work
[01:16] <vincenz> SurfnKid: yes, for dapper dpkg-reconfigure is no longer done
[01:17] <si|vercat> ccooke, I'm sorry I missed your reply earlier. I'm not really that comfortable with iptables.
[01:17] <FWO> warbo thanks for the help earlier divx works perfect now
[01:17] <Rambo3> antox there are tools to create initrd file just search google . i did it so couple of times on older linux
[01:17] <interferon> whenever i load a dapper livecd, i just get a blank screen after the installer starts all its services.  this happens even with the alternate cd, with every video mode i've tried, and with "graphics safe mode"
[01:17] <udo> crimsun nothing hearing
[01:17] <cius> if I wanted to use the windows key in the Keyboard Shortcut preferences, would I have to change it from default to something else in the Layout Options tab of the Keyboard Preferences?
[01:17] <Rambo3> antox: i mean for howto , tools are in synaptic
[01:18] <SurfnKid> vincenz: oh i see, not sure about dapper
[01:18] <bobstro> ok, can't you just change the colors in a desktop theme?
[01:18] <cius> like maybe change it from Super to Meta?
[01:18] <crimsun> udo: sudo modprobe -r snd_via82xx && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd_via82xx && sudo invoke-rc.d alsa-utils start
[01:18] <antox> Rambo3: as far as I got it, a whole directroy structure should be created... too complicated (for me)...
[01:19] <interferon> urrrrg
[01:19] <si|vercat> bobstro, I've found this example that changes the forward policy to drop, then uses "-t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.1.1/32 -j MASQUERADE", is this like the same thing?
[01:19] <bobstro> si|vercat:  well the one i posted could be used with a default policy of drop, yes. that's how i used it.
[01:19] <pmo> #join
[01:20] <pmo> #join /ubuntu-fr
[01:20] <si|vercat> bobstro, this one also has the -j masquerade instead of -j snat at the end, what's the difference?
[01:20] <antox> pmo, swap octatorp and the slash ;)
[01:20] <Drac|Mac> I've installed amaroK and the libxine-extracodecs package. When I try to use amaroK, I get an error: "xine could not load any drivers" (or something like that). What am I missing?
[01:20] <Rambo3> antox: if you are missing initrd its just" initr-tool /boot/linux-config.2.15.25  " , osmething like that if i remember
[01:20] <Rug> pmo: try this;     /join #ubuntu-fr
[01:20] <bobstro> si|vercat:  the nat options are more flexible, masquerade is simpler.
[01:20] <KanRiNiN> Hey guys.  i downloaded a cvs patch for gens, but how do I apply that to the CVS I just downloaded from the repo??
[01:20] <KanRiNiN> thanks in advance
[01:20] <bobstro> si|vercat:  (to put it simply)
[01:21] <AngryElf> grrr -- my sound has stopped working, nothing will play it.......amarok thinks it's working but no sound is coming out
[01:21] <Phenom_> I am getting this error (http://pastebin.com/719738)  while trying to install IEXplorer SP1 in the wine configuration screen "wt"
[01:21] <AngryElf> any ideas? -- how do i restart the sound system
[01:21] <DrKevorkian> angryelf: i have same prob
[01:21] <pmo> MERCI
[01:21] <JohnyX_> can someone help me with an installation question
[01:21] <DrKevorkian> i followed the guide for playing mp3's but it still doesn't work
[01:21] <crimsun> AngryElf: pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc* && amixer''
[01:21] <vincenz> SurfnKid: I'll try using 'ati' instead of 'fgrlx' however last time I tried X wouldn't start
[01:21] <Rug> JohnyX_: just ask
[01:21] <JohnyX_> it keeps giving me an error message
[01:22] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards /etc/asound.conf ~/.asoundrc* && amixer''
[01:22] <udo> crimsun it says FATAL: Module snd_via82xx is in use
[01:22] <JohnyX_> it says it cant install the base system
[01:22] <Rug> JohnyX_: it must say more then that...
[01:22] <JohnyX_> sorry hang on i tried doing it over
[01:22] <KanRiNiN> anybody familiar with CVS?
[01:22] <crimsun> udo: then kill whatever's using it (see the output from ``lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*'')
[01:22] <SurfnKid> vincenz: right. i tried thru dapper it was a hard install
[01:23] <Rambo3> antox: http://copper.matsc.kyutech.ac.jp/~yoshi/linux/sata/index_e.html look under make initrd
[01:23] <SurfnKid> vincenz: i couldnt get it going, breezy was an easy install
[01:23] <antox> Rambo3: thanks!
[01:23] <SurfnKid> vincenz: not sure how to set it up on Dapper :/
[01:23] <JohnyX_> it gets to zlib1g and then stops and gives an error
[01:23] <AngryElf> crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/67437
[01:23] <Rambo3> antox tool is called mkinitrd so you dont need first lines in that
[01:24] <Rambo3> just last line
[01:24] <udo> crimsun i do the command and now
[01:24] <crimsun> AngryElf: amixer is one word not to be separated by character
[01:24] <vincenz> SurfnKid: ah alright
[01:25] <AngryElf> that's a copy/paste error
[01:25] <vincenz> SurfnKid: let's hope they fix fglrx soon (cause I am actually using a custom libGL.so.1.2 from the forums due to the fact that the main one is broken which means that for instance openoffice will not launch)
[01:25] <AngryElf> crimsun, ^^
[01:25] <krazykit> vincenz: haha, like fglrx will ever work "right".  it's plagued with troubles.
[01:25] <udo> crimsun that else?
[01:26] <crimsun> udo: did you kill the PIDs listetd?
[01:26] <crimsun> listed^
[01:26] <JohnyX_> does it matter what kernel i install?
[01:26] <udo> crimsun yes
[01:26] <krazykit> JohnyX_: yes
[01:26] <vincenz> SurfnKid: aha, turned Overlay off and it seems to go better
[01:26] <crimsun> udo: then run the previous set of commands (modprobe -r ...)
[01:26] <JohnyX_> how do i know what one to install?
[01:26] <vincenz> Never mind, I spoke too soon
[01:26] <nickrud> JohnyX_, the i386 kernel works just about anywhere
[01:27] <krazykit> JohnyX_: the 386 kernel will run on anything that's not a mac.
[01:27] <Smeggy> Can anyone recommend a guide to get 802.1x (the authentication system) working on Ubuntu?
[01:27] <oni-dracula> anyone know a good tool to reverse a song?
[01:27] <JohnyX_> well it says unable to install initrd-tools
[01:27] <oni-dracula> as in, play it backwards?
[01:27] <SurfnKid> vincenz: working a bit better
[01:27] <JohnyX_> check /target/var/log/bootstrap.log for details
[01:27] <Definity> it has a atheros chipset?
[01:27] <udo> crimsun nothing deference
[01:27] <crimsun> udo: pastebin ``dmesg && amixer''
[01:28] <AngryElf> grrr -- my sound has stopped working, nothing will play it.......amarok thinks it's working but no sound is coming out -- any ideas?
[01:28] <crimsun> AngryElf: um, I need the amixer output
[01:28] <krazykit> AngryElf: turn up your sound?
[01:28] <nickrud> installer issuse, ugh. JohnyX_ if you have a way to show that log file someone might help. I don't know jack about installers
[01:28] <JohnyX_> so how do i check /target/var/log/bootstrap.log and what am i looking for?
[01:28] <Definity> any one know how to change the transmitting power of the wireless card in ubuntu
[01:28] <l_r> hello
[01:29] <AngryElf> crimsun, i gave it to you
[01:29] <nickrud> JohnyX_, do you have a live cd?
[01:29] <l_r> is there a chance to see kernel-2.6.17 anytime soon?
[01:29] <mxk> Does anyone know how to load a RAID driver module during Ubuntu 6.06 install?
[01:29] <JohnyX_> yes
[01:29] <nickrud> boot it
[01:29] <crimsun> AngryElf: what url?
[01:29] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16034
[01:29] <AngryElf> the one above  http://pastebin.ca/67437
[01:30] <crimsun> AngryElf: that has "amix er", which doesn't exist, and there's no amixer output
[01:30] <KanRiNiN> could anyone msg me and tell me how to apply correctly a cvs patch?
[01:31] <Bassetts> what does ubuntu use in place of verdana, arial and such on webpages?
[01:31] <AngryElf> crimsun, well, when I c/p your command that's what comes out
[01:31] <crimsun> AngryElf: your paste is randomly inserting whitespace where my statement has none
[01:32] <kha1i1> is there any serious difference between kde and gnome??? and how do i switch from gnome to kde to check it out???
[01:32] <THC4k> hi, im trying to get xgl/compiz running on my amd64 ... i followed the howtos and everything just seems to work nice, but when i log in to xgl i have no window decorations, but there are no errors either :/
[01:32] <zybrid> kha1i1: no
[01:32] <nickrud> Bassetts, I think they use the DejaVu family by default
[01:32] <kha1i1> zybrid: no to which part?
[01:32] <zybrid> THC4k: Have you started compiz?
[01:32] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16034
[01:32] <Gorg2> I'm running on a laptop, and when I try to install Ubuntu, I can't see everything while installing.  How can I change the resolution?
[01:32] <AngryElf> well when I type it in it does the same thing
[01:32] <AngryElf> I'm not sure what to tell you
[01:32] <crimsun> udo: I see "codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x107e5368] " in dmesg.
[01:32] <zybrid> THC4k: or choosed XGL siession in GDM? depending of which method you used.
[01:32] <Bassetts> nickrud: ok, just curious as i make webpages and would like to make them usable in ubuntu aswell as windows
[01:33] <crimsun> AngryElf: just execute amixer by itself and pastebin the output
[01:33] <zybrid> kha1i1: no serious.
[01:33] <zybrid> change.
[01:33] <kha1i1> zybrid:  how can i check out kde?
[01:33] <nickrud> Bassetts, I'll include you in my prayers ;)
[01:33] <Bassetts> nickrud: lol thanks =P
[01:33] <THC4k> zybrid: yeah when i run the startcompiz script nothing happens at all
[01:33] <udo> crimsun what can i do i think it doesnt work
[01:33] <crimsun> udo: pastebin ``lspci -nv'' please
[01:33] <razorbuzz> Is anyone familiar with a package that has the capabilities of photo hosting a la chipszone.net style?
[01:34] <zybrid> THC4k: try #xgl-compiz
[01:34] <crimsun> udo: no, it doesn't work because the driver thinks your hardware is broken.
[01:34] <THC4k> ah ok didnt know that exists thanks
[01:35] <AngryElf> crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/67441
[01:35] <udo> crimsun http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16035
[01:36] <mxk> Anyone? How to load raid controller drivers for the installation? Will have to go back to CentOS if I can't do it on Ubuntu :(
[01:36] <crimsun> AngryElf: well, um, 'PCM',
[01:36] <crimsun> AngryElf: is muted and set to 0% ...
[01:37] <gavagai> does ubuntu come with bittorrent capabilities?  if so what is the terminal command to download a torrent?
[01:37] <crimsun> AngryElf: furthermore, 'IEC958 Output' is unmuted
[01:37] <Sivik> gavagai: i think you have to install bittorrent via apt-get
[01:37] <gavagai> Sivik, ok thanks
[01:37] <crimsun> AngryElf: so: amixer set 'PCM' 80% on && amixer set 'IEC958 Output' off
[01:37] <AngryElf> i have no idea how that happened :/
[01:37] <Sivik> gavagai: can't remember if it comes already installed
[01:37] <gavagai> Sivik, and that works in the console?
[01:37] <Sivik> gavagai: if you want a gui, there is one of those as well
[01:37] <razorbuzz> Sivik: Azureus is a great one.
[01:37] <Sivik> gavagai: yes
[01:37] <gavagai> Sivik, thanks
[01:38] <Sivik> razorbuzz, what, bittorrent?
[01:38] <AngryElf> crimsun, ty
[01:38] <interferon> why do the dapper live cd's give me a blank cd after loading services??!?!
[01:38] <crimsun> AngryElf: np
[01:38] <udo> crimsun i dont hear anything
[01:38] <interferon> blank screen
[01:38] <nickrud> Bassetts, you can see the various serif fallbacks in /etc/fonts/font.conf
[01:38] <dallingham> I need some help setting up a network printer.  Using IPP gives me cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate
[01:38] <dallingham> not found!
[01:38] <Sivik> razorbuzz, i was telling gavagai and i just use bittorrent-gui
[01:38] <crimsun> udo: you won't hear anything until the codec problem is fixed.
[01:38] <nickrud> Bassetts, erm, and sans, and .. ;)
[01:38] <Bassetts> thanks nickrud
[01:38] <JohnP789> How can I get Dapper to install into an existing LVM logical volume?
[01:39] <Gorg2> I'm running on a laptop, and when I try to install Ubuntu, I can't see everything while installing.  How can I change the resolution?
[01:39] <zybrid> JohnP789: by choosing the LVM partition?
[01:39] <AngryElf> crimsun, care to troubleshoot why my other box has PCM sound working out the digital port, but i can't get digital sound out of it?
[01:39] <zybrid> Gorg2: CTRL ALT + or -
[01:39] <gavagai> Ok, apparently i have bittorrent installed already, but what command starts it?  'which bittorrent' returns nothing
[01:39] <udo> crimsun how can i fixed
[01:39] <eigenlambda> Gorg2: lol... do u have one of those weird-resolution laptops like 1440x900?
[01:39] <Sivik> JohnP789, change all the repos from breezy to dapper and then doing a apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:39] <Gorg2> no
[01:39] <Sivik> gavagai, just type bittorrent
[01:40] <JohnP789> zybrid, The graphical installer doesn't seem to recognize LVM LV's, and only offers to reformat a partition.
[01:40] <crimsun> AngryElf: either you're not using the correct virtual device (plug:iec958), or your hardware's mixer controls are configured incorrectly
[01:40] <gavagai> Sivik, command not found
[01:40] <zybrid> JohnP789: oh, dunno.
[01:40] <JohnP789> Sivik, It's an old FC 3 root in that LV.
[01:40] <eigenlambda> thats my parents computer screen.  my little bro plays quake at 1440x900, and gets alot of peripheral vision that i dont on my standard screen
[01:40] <eigenlambda> thats the only way he wins.  'cause he has more peripheral vision.
[01:40] <crimsun> udo: ``uname -r''
[01:40] <JohnP789> I guess I can blow away the whole volume group and put an ext3 fs there.
[01:40] <gavagai> hmm maybe it isn't in my repositories, but i thought i had universe and multiverse...  apt-get install bittorent:  Couldn't find package
[01:40] <Sivik> gavagai, btdownloadgui.bittorrent
[01:40] <AngryElf> crimsun, aplay -D plug:iec958 file.ac3 spits out noise.......so where would i config the hardwire controls?
[01:41] <Sivik> apt-get install bittorrent
[01:41] <JohnP789> Fortunately, it's just the FC 3 root and a 1 GB swap in there.
[01:41] <eigenlambda> ext3 sucks.  give yourself a 10G ext3 partition for ubuntu, and make the rest a reiserfs home
[01:41] <udo> crimsun 2.6.15-25-386
[01:41] <gavagai> ok, btdownloadcurses.  thanks
[01:41] <eigenlambda> ext3 is a total waste of disk space
[01:41] <Sivik> gavagai, yw
[01:41] <JohnP789> I'm only planning to use ext3 for /.
[01:41] <udo> crimsun what happened
[01:41] <eigenlambda> especially if you have a lot of code and other small files
[01:42] <JohnP789> My /home will be XFS.
[01:42] <eigenlambda> xfs?
[01:42] <eigenlambda> what are you storing in there?
[01:42] <eigenlambda> ripped dvds?
[01:42] <nickrud> rflol
[01:42] <crimsun> AngryElf: you can't use aplay like that. Use mplayer (see its man page), or tell aplay how many channels, the sampling format, and the bitrate used.
[01:42] <eigenlambda>  /!\ JohnP789 is a pirate /!\
[01:42] <udo> crimsun what happened
[01:42] <crimsun> AngryElf: there's also a tool called ac3dec
[01:42] <JohnP789> MythTV recordings, code, stuff like that.  XFS is all-around good.
[01:42] <eigenlambda> mmm
[01:43] <crimsun> udo: your hardware appears broken. Can you confirm that it works in another OS?
[01:43] <eigenlambda> i don't know that much about xfs actually
[01:43] <JohnP789> eigenlambda, What's your preference for a /home fs?
[01:43] <JohnP789> JFS?
[01:43] <udo> in windows xp it works
[01:43] <eigenlambda> reiserfs
[01:43] <Unintentional> has anyone set up postfix and procmail?  I'm having difficulty getting e-mail delivered to the right folder.
[01:43] <AngryElf> crimsun, where would i find this ac3dec?  alsa-tools?
[01:43] <JohnP789> Reiser4?  (Please say no)
[01:43] <udo> crimsun in windows xp it works
[01:43] <crimsun> AngryElf: yep
[01:43] <eigenlambda> reiserfs saves space.  and a little time.  and is well-supported, almost as well as ext3
[01:44] <crimsun> udo: ok.
[01:44] <cheek_> DCC SEND 124567890startkeylogger
[01:45] <eigenlambda> lol... network hiccup
[01:45] <eigenlambda> what's +r?
[01:45] <nickrud> clueless idiot
[01:46] <Renski> I havnt even said anything yet!
[01:46] <Renski> :p
[01:46] <eigenlambda> Renski: lol
[01:46] <kha1i1> how can i check out kde?
[01:46] <rpedro_> is it possible the ati binary drivers cause system freezes? I've had two in last few days, one just after updating the kernel, so I tought that might have caused it, but now I'm thinking maybe it could be the fglrx drivers causing it , since I enabled them at about the same time.
[01:47] <crimsun> rpedro_: yes, it's possible
[01:47] <Renski> but seriously, a while ago someone give a url for a site that helped you configure your sources for apt. So that ring a bell with anyone?
[01:47] <oni-dracula> hey
[01:47] <nickrud> !repos
[01:47] <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.
[01:47] <oni-dracula> anyone have some experience installing diablo2 under cedega?
[01:48] <AngryElf> crimsun, the only info about iec958 on the mplayer man page has to do with a video driver.....
[01:48] <MdSalih> anyone know a good command line based browser other than lynx that lets you bind an ip address to it ?
[01:49] <Drac|Mac> I've installed amaroK and the libxine-extracodecs package. When I try to use amaroK, I get an error: "xine could not load any drivers" (or something like that). What am I missing?
[01:49] <crimsun> AngryElf: then check the online documentation at http://www.mplayerhq.hu
[01:49] <tempered> if I install ubuntu on top of windows, can I still read the NTFS drives?
[01:49] <rpedro_> crimsun: you wouldn't happen to know if there are 'workarounds', or possibly some bug I can track till the issue is resolved?
[01:49] <crimsun> AngryElf: I don't have the parameters memorised, but it should say in there.
[01:49] <buggzero> What is a permanent fix to the shift+backspace restart thing in XGL
[01:50] <crimsun> rpedro_: I have no idea; there may be; check the wiki, #ati on this network, and the ATI forums
[01:50] <mrkoje> what is the package name.... make-essentials or build-essentials?
[01:50] <nickrud> rpedro_, search the forums for xmodmap xgl
[01:50] <crimsun> mrkoje: build-essential
[01:50] <mrkoje> thanks
[01:51] <mrkoje> For somereason I think that package should be installed on default
[01:51] <rpedro_> nickrud: I'm not using Xgl (yet). still a bit to buggy for me to have on a main pc
[01:51] <mrkoje> but thats just my oldschool linux speaking
[01:52] <JohnyX_> should there be problems with bootstrap.log if i formatted the drive?
[01:52] <nickrud> rpedro, wait for edgy, for decent 3d (I hope)
[01:53] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, probably you are missing gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[01:53] <nickrud> mrkoje, the dev list had a long discussion about that, if you want some reading material :)
[01:53] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, Do you want to play mp3 with amarok?
[01:53] <nickrud> JohnyX_, if you formatted the drive after the failed install, absolutely
[01:53] <mrkoje> maybe i'll print it out on the dot-matrix and stick it by the toilet
[01:53] <detectiveinspekt> When I try to mount a windows partition using disk manager it says permission denied
[01:54] <detectiveinspekt> I mean it says then when I try to browse it
[01:54] <detectiveinspekt> its mounted
[01:54] <AngryElf> crimsun, i assume i'm looking for "hardware audio decoding" since i'm using a hoem theatre receiver -- the only thing it gives is -ac hwac3 -- when I run that my receiver goes from recognizing 2 channels to none
[01:54] <JohnyX_> nickrud, i even used windows xp installation to format it just to make sure
[01:54] <nickrud> JohnyX_, the file was something to read, not remove.
[01:55] <JohnyX_> but if im reinstalling then wouldnt it be back to normal
[01:55] <nickrud> yes
[01:55] <rpedro_> nickrud: "rpedro_, search the forums for xmodmap xgl" you were talking to buggzero ?
[01:55] <crimsun> AngryElf: have you checked the ice17xx pages on alsa.opensrc.org ?
[01:55] <nickrud> rpedro_, probably, thanks ;)
[01:55] <crimsun> AngryElf: (I'm very busy at work)
[01:56] <AngryElf> no, what on earth are they?
[01:56] <buggzero> i fixed the xmodmap but how to I make it load that same xmodmap on boot
[01:56] <JohnyX_> it gets to the kernel choice and thats when i get an error
[01:56] <rpedro_> nickrud: ah, ok :)
[01:56] <Cntryboy> I just ran xpsp2 on my windows 160gig drive so I could get all my unallowcated space. I'm back into linux and mounted my /media/windows hd again, but it doesn't appear in the panel nor on desktop. Anyone know why?
[01:57] <nickrud> buggzero, you've got some stuff in ~/.gnomerc already, right?
[01:57] <Sivik> Cntryboy, maybe because it doesn't have an icon, did you go into console and see if it was where you mounted it?
[01:57] <mrkoje> can someone tell me where my kernel header files are located?
[01:57] <buggzero> i dont think so
[01:57] <Sivik> mrkoje, they should be in the /usr/src folder
[01:57] <JohnyX_> whatever i choose it gives me error not installing to unclean target
[01:58] <mrkoje> Sivik, so I have been told. Not anything in there
[01:58] <kha1i1> any good games for linux?
[01:58] <mrkoje> Sivik,  Maybe I don't have the header files?
[01:58] <JohnyX_> running /sbin/lilo failed with error code 1
[01:58] <Sivik> mrkoje, then you don't have the header files
[01:58] <kha1i1> like aoe3?
[01:58] <Sivik> mrkoje, you can download them via apt-get
[01:58] <kha1i1> or the like?
[01:58] <Cntryboy> Yes, I can see my windows hd both partitions, hda1 of windows was still mounted. Since I changed the 2nd partition on windows, linux didn't reconize it because it was hda5, well I changed it to hda2 since I repartitioned it because thats what it's listed as now.. The hda2 is mounted, but not coming up on desktop or panel.. but it is mounted yes
[01:59] <Sivik> Cntryboy, can you access from console/xterm?
[01:59] <mrkoje> Sivik, what is the package name... kernel-source-2.6.
[01:59] <Sivik> mrkoje, depends on your kernle
[01:59] <Sivik> use apt-cache to search
[01:59] <zybrid> Cntryboy: that was the worst explaing i seen today
[01:59] <Cntryboy> yes
[01:59] <Cntryboy> im sorry im not perfect like you zybrid
[01:59] <Sivik> mrkoje: you can download the headers without downloading the source
[01:59] <mrkoje> ok
[01:59] <vanberge> would anybody be willing to answer a few questions for me about ubuntu / ntfs ?  (I am migrating from windows and have a few questions!)
[02:00] <Sivik> vanberge, just asking them, don't ask if you can ask them
[02:00] <vanberge> Sivik, ok
[02:00] <zybrid> Cntryboy: :)
[02:00] <Cntryboy> did you catch that sivik?
[02:00] <mrkoje> Sivik,  does this sound right? linux-headers-2.6.15-23
[02:01] <vanberge> Well, is ubuntu plug n play?   i just installed ubuntu on 1 hard drive, and want to hook up my windows hard drive as a slave so that i can copy my files over to this ubuntu install.  is that something that would work fairly easily?
[02:01] <zybrid> vanberge: is it usb-drive?
[02:01] <vanberge> neg.  IDE
[02:01] <Sivik> Cntryboy, it was very confusing, but does it come up via nautilus or some other file system
[02:01] <zybrid> vanberge: IDE is not PNP
[02:01] <Sivik> mrkoje, yes, thats right
[02:02] <Cntryboy> all I know sivik is it's mounted and through gui or terminal it does show the files..
[02:02] <vanberge> zybrid: what would i have to do in order to mount a slave IDe drive without damaging it?
[02:02] <vanberge> :-/
[02:02] <Sivik> Cntryboy, not sure
[02:02] <zybrid> vanberge: you can read ntfs, but not write on it *the last time i checked*
[02:02] <zybrid> vanberge: you need to mount the ntfs drive to somewhere.
[02:02] <mrkoje> Sivik,  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-23 ....... thats going to put them in /usr/src  right?
[02:02] <mrkoje> hopefully
[02:03] <Sivik> mrkoje, yes
[02:03] <mrkoje> Sivik, super
[02:03] <vanberge> that would be perfect zybrid.  i dont want to have any chance of writing to it
[02:03] <Sivik> mrkoje, thats how it worked for me
[02:03] <jerware> hi gang
[02:03] <Cntryboy> anyone else?
[02:03] <JohnyX_> ok the error message i got for dbootstrap.log
[02:03] <mrkoje> Sivik, I'm trying to get VMware server to play nicely
[02:03] <JohnyX_> im in the directory and there isnt a log
[02:03] <Sivik> mrkoje, good for you
[02:03] <jerware> i would like to copy my firefox book marks from my debian box, to an other box.  anyone know how to find that directory?
[02:03] <nickrud> JohnyX_, /var/log, and no log file?
[02:03] <Sivik> mrkoje, i got it installed, but i am unable to create a new Virtual Machine
[02:04] <zybrid> vanberge: Then i dont know.
[02:04] <Sivik> jerware, did you try #debian?
[02:04] <jerware> err from my ubuntu box to debain
[02:04] <mrkoje> Sivik,  good luck... heard its a bitc#
[02:04] <JohnyX_>    /target/var/log is where it said it was at
[02:04] <zybrid> vanberge: perhaps there is a mount-gui program in reps?
[02:04] <billybennett> jerware, you ever tried googles sync bookmarks?
[02:04] <jerware> hmm
[02:04] <iiiears> Sivik - QEMU?
[02:04] <nickrud> JohnyX_, ok, that would translate to /var/og on the partition you tried to install to
[02:04] <vanberge> zybrid: no, its good... if i can mount my ntfs hard disk and read it, then i am set.
[02:04] <JohnyX_> and theres no file in /var/log either
[02:04] <kbrosnan> jerware, ~/.mozilla look for bookmarks.html
[02:04] <vanberge> zybrid: i know my way around command line...
[02:04] <zybrid> vanberge: oh, i misunderstood you.
[02:05] <Sivik> iiiears, what is QEMU?
[02:05] <vanberge> zybrid: can i mount after boot up?  or do i have to edit fstab to make mount during system init.
[02:05] <zybrid> vanberge: i think there are some fine howtos at help.ubuntu.org
[02:05] <zybrid> vanberge: yes just edit fstab
[02:05] <Cntryboy> anyone know why my mounted windows partition shows mounted through terminal and the gui, but isn't listed in the panel nor on desktop as mounted items?
[02:05] <iiiears> Sivik - Another Virtual Machine Host software.
[02:05] <AkumAPRIME> hey, so I'm up with ubuntu now, YAY... but.. my resolution is Tiny and it wont let me change it. Also, how do I use Both my monitors? Now it outputs to the secondary....
[02:05] <zybrid> oh. Yes, you can mount after startup.
[02:05] <Sivik> iiiears, thanks
[02:06] <zybrid> AkumAPRIME: CTRL ALT + or -
[02:06] <Sivik> iiiears, can i get that via apt-get?
[02:06] <zybrid> AkumAPRIME: check help.ubuntu.org or ubuntuforums.org for multiple monitors
[02:06] <Cntryboy> maybe thats my prob.. let me reboot and see if it finds my mount
[02:06] <qwe> does apt-get have an option to ignore dependencies?
[02:06] <iiiears> Sivik - If you have $200 give VMWare a try. - comepletly painless.
[02:06] <Sivik> lol
[02:06] <AkumAPRIME> thanx zybrid
[02:06] <Sivik> thats funny
[02:06] <vanberge> vmware is free now actually.
[02:06] <Hexidigital_> iiiears:: vmware server is free
[02:06] <vanberge> isnt it?
[02:06] <Sivik> iiiears, is the QEMU free?
[02:07] <Sivik> Hexidigital_, yes he knows that, i'm having issues with it
[02:07] <Hexidigital_> Sivik:: oh, sorry... caught the middle, i guess
[02:07] <vanberge> Sivik:  cross your fingers for me...  :-)
[02:07] <iiiears> Sivik - I don't know if QEMU is in the repository. - D/L the Accelerator. - a bit more configuring but much better performance.
[02:07] <Sivik> iiiears, k
[02:08] <AkumAPRIME> hmm.. fyi: ctrl alt + - did nothing
[02:08] <Hexidigital_> Sivik:: i believe QEMU is in the repos
[02:08] <Hexidigital_> !qemu
[02:08] <ubotu> I guess qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=200357&postcount=1
[02:08] <Sivik> Hexidigital_, ok
[02:08] <iiiears> Hexidigital_: Yes and no, They kinda hope you will buy it.
[02:08] <zybrid> AkumAPRIME: try changing gfx driver to vesa in xorg.conf
[02:08] <Hexidigital_> iiiears:: everyone hopes you will buy something :)  i think the server edition is good and bad... it has it's uses
[02:09] <AkumAPRIME> xorg.conf? I would have No idea what that is
[02:09] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: what kind of videocard?
[02:09] <AkumAPRIME> intel proset
[02:09] <Sivik> AkumAPRIME, its a file in the /etc/X11 folder that handles the configurations for input and output devices in linux
[02:09] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: what model? 9XX or 8XX?
[02:09] <Hermitis> Hello
[02:09] <AkumAPRIME> 9xx
[02:09] <iiiears> Hexidigital_: It is very useful. - Try something munge it.. oops. then reload a fresh image. - grin
[02:09] <AkumAPRIME> I think
[02:10] <interferon> is there a boot parameter i can pass to the kernel to cause it to load a specific module?
[02:10] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: hold on a sec, lemme look for something
[02:10] <AkumAPRIME> if I were using windows. I'd know how to check and tell you
[02:10] <Sivik> AkumAPRIME, run lspci | grep video
[02:10] <Hermitis> I need help with Wine, I get this error when trying to run winecfg http://pastebin.com/719809
[02:10] <AkumAPRIME> in terminal?
[02:10] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, yes, I want to play mp3s with it. I have the right repositories set. Don't worry about that sort of thing. Just tell me what to install.
[02:10] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: yes, in terminal
[02:10] <detectiveinspekt> When I open the diskmanager it automaticly mounts partions to /tmp/disk-conf-hdd#, this safe?
[02:10] <Sivik> AkumAPRIME, yes
[02:11] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: what are you trying to view? 1200 x 800 resolution?
[02:11] <Drac|Mac> I'm used to XMMS and such for mp3s. Amarok needs extra stuff, apparently. I'm only doing this for my great grandmother..
[02:11] <zybrid> detectiveinspekt: kinda.
[02:11] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: (besides the dual monitor)
[02:11] <detectiveinspekt> i don't want them mounter
[02:11] <zybrid> detectiveinspekt: dont empty your /tmp
[02:11] <JohnyX_> so will formatting the drives and starting over work?
[02:12] <AkumAPRIME> idk why gaim just died on me
[02:12] <JohnyX_> or do i need to edit the dbootstrap.log file
[02:12] <AkumAPRIME> that command
[02:12] <cute_bettong> !hardware
[02:12] <ubotu> it has been said that hardware is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:12] <HellDragon> brb
[02:12] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, I installed the two packages that i already told you and it worked fine for me.
[02:12] <AkumAPRIME> |spci | grep video
[02:12] <detectiveinspekt> even when I look at /temp/disks-conf as root it won't allow me
[02:12] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: what was the output of the command?
[02:12] <mrkoje> so close... damnit
[02:12] <mrkoje> until next time
[02:12] <mrkoje> vmware server is going to wait
[02:12] <Sivik> mrkoje, is it working yet?
[02:12] <mrkoje> it got the best of me this time but
[02:12] <Sivik> mrkoje, whats the new error
[02:12] <jerware> whats a good p2p file sharing program i can apt for the gnome desktop?
[02:12] <AkumAPRIME> Im not seeing that command correctly. is it 2 "|"'s
[02:13] <gnomefreak> glib is the base gnome ib right?
[02:13] <gnomefreak> s/ib/lib
[02:13] <Sivik> ls | grep video
[02:13] <mrkoje> Sivik,  well something wrong with the vmon module not finding a file or directory in the /usr/src/linux/include/ area
[02:13] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: the first character is an L  (lowercase)
[02:13] <zybrid> jerware: azusuerus
[02:13] <Sivik> mrkoje, its cause you have to tell it to look in a different place
[02:13] <zybrid> azuerrus
[02:13] <mrkoje> Sivik,  I've had about enough of it tonight so I will try again later ot maybe tomorrow
[02:13] <JohnyX_> now it wont even boot the installation cd
[02:13] <mrkoje> Sivik, do you know off the top of your head?
[02:14] <AkumAPRIME> lspci | grep video gives me No output
[02:14] <mrkoje> Sivik,  I'll look into it a little later
[02:14] <Sivik> mrkoje, you just have to tell it to look in the /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386
[02:14] <mrkoje> Sivik,  I did that
[02:14] <Sivik> AkumAPRIME, do lspci and the VGA controller should be at the bottom
[02:14] <AkumAPRIME> was that expected?
[02:14] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: no
[02:15] <mrkoje> and it starts compiling the vmon module... but then
[02:15] <mrkoje> ntering directory `/usr/src/linux'
[02:15] <mrkoje> Makefile:536: /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/Makefile: No such file or directory
[02:15] <Sivik> mrkoje, its not looking in the right place
[02:15] <AkumAPRIME> Display controller: Intel C orporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Expre ss Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[02:15] <mrkoje> ya stupid perl script
[02:15] <AkumAPRIME> not at the bottom though
[02:15] <Hexidigital_> ok, AkumAPRIME
[02:15] <mrkoje> lol.. thanks Sivik  for the help
[02:15] <mrkoje> I'll be back later to work on it
[02:15] <mrkoje> need a break
[02:15] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: in terminal, type "sudo apt-get install 915resolution" (without quotes)
[02:16] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, just libxine-extracodecs and the gstreamer thing?
[02:16] <HellDragon> i
[02:16] <HellDragon> hi*
[02:16] <AkumAPRIME> Couldn't find package 915resolution
[02:16] <HellDragon> can anyone help me ? i get sound only with Noatun and some application, but other things like flash animations,full screen games..etc i get no sound
[02:16] <Hexidigital_> gnomefreak:: i cant find glib on my system
[02:17] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, Have you already installed them?
[02:17] <moonlite> i just changed from my internal intel wlan-card to an atheroes-based netgear-card. It's insane how much more stable it is. Too bad the intel drivers are so bad :(
[02:17] <AkumAPRIME> is a "package" like a driver?
[02:17] <keleus> /join ##linux
[02:17] <krazykit> AkumAPRIME: make sure you have universe enabled
[02:17] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital_: maybe libglib
[02:17] <iiiears> Helldragon - Do you have mozcontrol installed?
[02:17] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: its available in the universe...
[02:17] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, Yeah. Hold on. This user isn't specifically part of the audio group. Could that be why?
[02:17] <AkumAPRIME> wtf is universe? how do I enable it?
[02:17] <HellDragon> let me look iiiears
[02:17] <Hexidigital_> ubotu:: tell AkumAPRIME about easysource
[02:17] <HellDragon> no
[02:17] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital_: i know kdes is libqt3-mt i cant remember gnomes
[02:17] <Kyral> AkumAPRIME: hmm, in Windoze terms a Package is the closest thing Linux gets to a .exe type installer
[02:18] <Hexidigital_> gnomefreak:: libglib not found either :(
[02:18] <AkumAPRIME> ty for the dumbdown kyral
[02:18] <HellDragon> i can't even find it on synaptic, iiiears
[02:18] <Kyral> I do my best
[02:18] <gavagai> Drac|Mac, users need to be in that group to have audio
[02:18] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, and tested them?
[02:18] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: follow the instructions ubotu sent you, then do the 915resolution command again
[02:18] <Hexidigital_> gnomefreak:: still looking
[02:18] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, does your xmms work?
[02:19] <JohnyX_> should i  erase entire disk ide1 master for install or erase disk and use LVM ?
[02:19] <HellDragon> :(
[02:19] <AkumAPRIME> how do I know if I'm breezy, hoary or dapper?
[02:19] <HellDragon> i want my sounds back !
[02:19] <ElBarono> why did my screensaver stop locking when I close my laptop lid?
[02:19] <Hexidigital_> gnomefreak:: libgcc?

[02:19] <ElBarono> this happened like 3 updates ago
[02:19] <iiiears> Helldragon - Heldragon a quick google should show it. - Is "Universe Community Supported" enabled in the repositories?   Grab msttcorefonts for flash games. maybe too.
[02:19] <Hermitis> I need help with Wine, I get this error when trying to run winecfg http://pastebin.com/719809
[02:20] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital_: no that gcc lib
[02:20] <HellDragon> iiiears, my sounds were working some days ago
[02:20] <iiiears> Helldragon - Could be two plugins for the same media type battling it out.
[02:20] <Hexidigital_> sorry, gnomefreak , thats the only libg* i see
[02:20] <HellDragon> hum
[02:21] <AkumAPRIME> SHould I choose breezy, Hoary or dapper? How do I tell which ubuntu I'm using?
[02:21] <keleus> how do i get vncserver to SHARE the desktop on :0 rather than make a new display?
[02:21] <gnomefreak> Hexidigital_: its all right ill find it
[02:21] <JohnyX_> should i erase the entire disk or erase it and use lvm ?

[02:21] <iiiears> Edgy Eft
[02:22] <ElBarono> why did my screensaver stop locking when I close my laptop lid?
[02:22] <HellDragon> iiiears, 2 plugins ?
[02:22] <buggzero> personally Im a fan of Elves more
[02:22] <echeese> Hi
[02:22] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: when did you acquire the install cd?
[02:22] <iiiears> Helldragon - to plugins for mp3?
[02:22] <ElBarono> keleus: I don't think that's possible anymore
[02:22] <iiiears> 2
[02:22] <Hexidigital_> ubotu:: tell AkumAPRIME about version
[02:22] <HellDragon> i don't know
[02:23] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: another ubotu instruction
[02:23] <AkumAPRIME> ubotu::: tell AkumAPRIME everything
[02:23] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, No XMMS on this machine. That was another...
[02:23] <echeese> Can I somehow use my existing Breezy livecd to install Ubuntu to my HD?
[02:23] <buggzero> is Akregator the best RSS dohickey out for nix
[02:23] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, what about mplayer?
[02:24] <JohnyX_> why does it take windows 12 minutes to format a disc but ubuntu can do it in 12 seconds?
[02:24] <HellDragon> i'm sad with no sounds
[02:24] <Hexidigital_> buggzero:: not sure what a dohickey is
[02:24] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, not yet installed. No media to test it with, either. Lemme throw XMMS on.
[02:24] <AkumAPRIME> oook. So I have this list of sources
[02:24] <AkumAPRIME> what do I do with them?
[02:24] <iiiears> HellDragon: Someone here knows what to do. - My advice wouldn't likely help. - remove and reinstall all of you media players. - yech
[02:24] <zezu> am i the only one that thinks the new setup for the cds is quite lame
[02:25] <HellDragon> but i touched nothing since some weeks
[02:25] <buggzero> Hexidigital: Feed Aggrigator or monitor or viewer, etc etc etc
[02:25] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: take the # out of the front of universe
[02:25] <HellDragon> and my sounds were working 2 days ago
[02:25] <HellDragon> thats weird
[02:25] <HellDragon> but ill try
[02:25] <zezu> i had a problem with the gay "desktop" cd not wanting to install, and now the "install" cd is only for a server and doesn't even have X on it
[02:25] <AkumAPRIME> Idk what that means.. sorry for my newbishness
[02:25] <iiiears> HellDragon: Ask your question again
 GaiaX11, just libxine-extracodecs and the gstreamer thing?
 i
 hi*
 Couldn't find package 915resolution
[02:25] <HellDragon> oops
[02:25] <iiiears> HellDragon: Someone certainly has a better answer.
[02:25] <HellDragon> can anyone help me ? i get sound only with Noatun and some application, but other things like flash
[02:26] <zezu> even if hte installer works on the desktop cd now, i dont want to have to wait 20mins for it to setup to install that takes another 15
[02:26] <HellDragon> copy paste is weird
[02:26] <HellDragon> ive got it ! yay : can anyone help me ? i get sound only with Noatun and some application, but other things like flash animations,full screen games..etc i get no sound
[02:26] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, do you have w32codecs as well?
[02:26] <Hermitis> Can anyone help me with a wine error I am getting?
[02:26] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, It's a Mac.
[02:26] <zezu> does the alt. install cd install the server or the desktop version ?
[02:27] <AkumAPRIME> hexidigital: take the # out of the front of universe? what does this mean?
[02:27] <Hexidigital_> zezu:: both
[02:27] <vincenz> What do I need to install to play mp4 files? (video)
[02:27] <zezu> I dont have to wait for any livecd crap ?
[02:27] <HellDragon> vincenz, a PSP
[02:27] <zezu> IE: i just want to install the thing its what i want ?
[02:27] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, for me that was enough
[02:27] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: theres an # in front of some websites that start with deb... take the # away
[02:27] <buggzero> HellDragon: you get no sound in Flash?
[02:27] <HellDragon> and in games
[02:27] <vincenz> HellDragon: ...
[02:27] <buggzero> I  know how to fix that
[02:28] <vincenz> i mean what packages
[02:28] <HellDragon> i get no sounds everywhere but on xmms
[02:28] <Drac|Mac> HellDragon, please stop making not-so-helpful suggestions. :|
[02:28] <HellDragon> the funny thing is i hear system sound from ubuntu
[02:28] <AkumAPRIME> hexi: I was sent to THIS site. http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[02:28] <buggzero> HellDragon: sudo apt-get alsa-oss
[02:28] <AkumAPRIME> by ubotu. I still don't know what universal is, and I see no # to take away from it's front
[02:29] <vincenz> why doesn't dapper switch to XINE?
[02:29] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: yes, that will tell you how to enable universe and multiverse repositories
[02:29] <vanberge> Sivik:  we're in business!  :-)
[02:29] <HellDragon> i need to restart X now ?
[02:29] <Hermitis> Anyone here familure with Wine for Ubuntu?
[02:29] <AkumAPRIME> holy shit.. ok... continue to read time I guess...
[02:29] <buggzero> yes after you installed it
[02:29] <nickrud> HellDragon, change the output option in xmms then
[02:29] <HellDragon> why ?
[02:29] <vanberge> does anybody know or can recommend a good text editor for linux?  something like this: http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/product/writeroom
[02:29] <nickrud> HellDragon, so it plays
[02:29] <krazykit> Hermitis: yeah, i'm familiar with WINE in general
[02:29] <buggzero> vanberge: vi
[02:29] <JohnyX_> in the installation process on the base system it gets to "creating system devices" and fails
[02:29] <HellDragon> ???
[02:29] <Drac|Mac> vanberge, have you tried open office writer?
[02:29] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: when you are done, you should be able to install the 915resolution package
[02:30] <buggzero> HellDragon: why what?
[02:30] <Hermitis> krazykit, can you help me with an error I am getting while trying to use winecfg?
[02:30] <krazykit> Hermitis: mebbe...  what's the error?
[02:30] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, any light?
[02:30] <buggzero> ahh screw em
[02:30] <AkumAPRIME> done what? the site asked me questions, I answered, checked boxes. then it sent to a page of things that I have No idea what to do with. Are they terminal commands?
[02:30] <Hermitis> krazykit, http://pastebin.com/719809
[02:30] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: what do they start with?
[02:30] <vanberge> Drac | mac:  i am very familiar with Vi, and yes i have tried openoffice witer.
[02:31] <AkumAPRIME> deb, most of them. I can paste bin if that's helpful
[02:31] <vanberge> i am looking for something 'lightweight' - but that can take up the whole screen...
[02:31] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, quit and run amarok again and try to play a file
[02:31] <HellDragon> it doesnt work
[02:31] <HellDragon> i still have no sound
[02:31] <AkumAPRIME> like Deb http:blahblahblah
[02:31] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: no, dont paste them... hang on
[02:32] <buggzero> vanberge: are you looking for a text editor with tag colors or a word processor
[02:32] <krazykit> Hermitis: did you update wine recently?
[02:32] <Hermitis> krazykit, yes
[02:32] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, Is you volume sound working fine?
[02:32] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, I've done that several times already. :P
[02:32] <Hermitis> krazykit, it was working ok befor the update
[02:32] <HellDragon> yes GaiaX11
[02:32] <vanberge> buggzero: a simple wordprocessor...  this one for mac OS is really cool.  blocks out the rest of the screen, no distractions...
[02:32] <krazykit> Hermitis: ah, check ps -aux, and kill any wine process
[02:33] <buggzero> vanberge: I like ABI for quick documents
[02:33] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, i think it is only about setting up the right output plugin then
[02:33] <HellDragon> when i go in "sound & multimedia" of conf panel and i hit test sound and test midi i hear the sounds
[02:33] <kha1i1> How cna i get opera on here? everytime i download teh dapper version it says not supported and gives a msg about xlib
[02:33] <polpak> !opera
[02:33] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, XMMS won't work, either. The usual "Please check that... Your sound card is configured correctly..." etc.
[02:33] <ubotu> download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ (breezy) or http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/Weekly-284/intel-linux/ (dapper) to install see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[02:34] <HellDragon> GaiaX11, how the plugin ended up messed up? i dont touched anything
[02:34] <HellDragon> system sounds and xmms works :#
[02:34] <Hermitis> krazykit, I'm not seeing a wine process?
[02:34] <buggzero> !xmodmap
[02:34] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, buggzero
[02:34] <Drac|Mac> `
[02:35] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: ok, in terminal, type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list, and copy and paste the output from the website, and save
[02:35] <vanberge> buggzero: thanks for the help...  anybody else have any recommendations on text editors?  (Besides Vi and OO.org)  :-)
[02:35] <Hexidigital_> vanberge:: nano?
[02:35] <png> gvim:P
[02:36] <sethk> vanberge, there are dozens
[02:36] <nickrud> abiword?
[02:36] <sethk> vanberge, emacs, gedit, kedit,
[02:36] <AkumAPRIME> Hexi: adding the new urls to the file? or overwriting it all? Im guessing add, but best to be specific
[02:36] <krazykit> Hermitis: ya sure?  there are stuff like wine-server and wine-preload if you've run it recently.  the simplest thing might be to just restart, but if you can kill all the wine processes... it should be fine
[02:36] <sethk> vanberge, depends on what you expect to be editing
[02:36] <buggzero> vanberge, so what ar eyou saying, my suggestion isnt good enough for you?
[02:36] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: sorry, yes, add them
[02:36] <nickrud> split the difference
[02:36] <siriusnova> anyone here own a T60p ?
[02:36] <vanberge> buggzero: no, thats not it at all.
[02:36] <vanberge> i have a friend who is asking me about text editors on linux.  He uses one specific text editor on Mac OSX.
[02:36] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, do you have amarok-xine installed as well?
[02:36] <vanberge> And i always use Vi... so i dont have much to offer
[02:37] <eonbluezzz> ahoy ninjas
[02:37] <vanberge> buggzero: so i am trying to give him a good list to go from  :-)
[02:37] <HellDragon> :(
[02:37] <Hexidigital_> vanberge:: what one on OsX does he use?
[02:37] <AkumAPRIME> Sorry to be a stickler. Where do I start copying? there is a bunch of stuff at the top that looks like it need not be copied. Should I start at the first deb? or the #statement before the deb or?
[02:37] <buggzero> well unless you want to port that word processor, your not going to find something exactly like it
[02:37] <AkumAPRIME> or just do the whole thing
[02:37] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: wait... you see the #deb things then?
[02:37] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, I do.
[02:37] <eonbluezzz> ok so i installed GCC and Make via apt, but when compiling i get  "C Compiler Cannot Create Executables"
[02:37] <eonbluezzz> what does that mean
[02:37] <Hermitis> krazykit, results of ps -aux
[02:38] <AkumAPRIME> # Ubuntu supported packages (packages, GPG key: 437D05B5) deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper main restricted
[02:38] <Hermitis> http://pastebin.com/719847
[02:38] <AkumAPRIME> those are 2 lines
[02:38] <Hermitis> krazykit, http://pastebin.com/719847
[02:38] <Eleaf> hi
[02:38] <sethk> eonbluezzz, usually that you don't have write permissions for the directory you are working in
[02:38] <AkumAPRIME> deb starts a new line
[02:38] <rixxon> just playing around: 'cat /dev/video0 | xxd' doesn't print anything that makes sense, is it binary data or simply compressed?
[02:38] <sethk> eonbluezzz, try doing it with sudo
[02:38] <buggzero> ubotu: tell eonbluezzz about compile
[02:38] <eonbluezzz> still same thing w/ sudo
[02:38] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: that's what i meant before... # are comments... there shouldnt be any #s before deb... if you see a # before deb (#deb), delete #
[02:38] <vanberge> Hexidigital_:  he uses this one:  http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/product/writeroom
[02:38] <sethk> eonbluezzz, if you type gcc, what happens?
[02:39] <eonbluezzz> no input files
[02:39] <AkumAPRIME> so delete all commented lines and copy?
[02:39] <Hexidigital_> vanberge:: sorry, cant view sites... im in a console right now
[02:39] <bimberi> vanberge: OpenOffice.org has a sullscreen mode, similar to what WriteRoom does
[02:39] <sethk> eonbluezzz, ok, so gcc is really there
[02:39] <bimberi> *fullscreen
[02:39] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: skip the copy, just uncomment the #debs
[02:39] <sethk> eonbluezzz, it can only be a permissions thing.  It must be a read only mount you are working on, or something of that sort
[02:39] <AkumAPRIME> there are no #debs
[02:39] <AkumAPRIME> just other commented lines
[02:39] <iiiears> sethk - IF you installed build-eesential
[02:39] <kvasov> is eclipse in ubuntu a native build or is it java?
[02:39] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: throughout the whole list?
[02:40] <vanberge> Hexidigital_: thanks..  :-)   it is called 'writeroom'
[02:40] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, I have had to manually select the xine engine in AmaroK, and it gives that error I described.
[02:40] <AkumAPRIME> AH! you mean in the output from the terminal? not the website!?\
[02:40] <AkumAPRIME> yes, I see, and one is universe
[02:40] <AkumAPRIME> I will del # and save
[02:40] <AkumAPRIME> that must be what you mean
[02:40] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: thats it! :)
[02:40] <gmoore> which is more lightweight in general -- gnome or KDE? im currently running breezy but im reformatting soon so i'll be installing dapper. 450mhz p3 with 256mb of ram. using mostly as a server, not much for desktop, only occasionally using NX to connect to use the GUI.
[02:40] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, do you have libmikmod2 ?
[02:41] <vanberge> gmoore: you should check out fluxbox.  :-)
[02:41] <Hermitis> krazykit, I'll try restarting, brb
[02:41] <AkumAPRIME> now that thats saved, shall I reboot?
[02:41] <krazykit> Hermitis: try killing explorer.exe and the c:windows thing
[02:41] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: no reboot required
[02:41] <Roots> Has anyone had any problems with Drapper getting really slow over the past few days? It was working great for me and now all of a sudden my laptop can't even keep up with my typing speed into X-chat's textbox
[02:41] <HellDragon> :(
[02:41] <Hermitis> krazykit, ok
[02:41] <buggzero> gmoore: Xfce is lighterwieght then both but id choose gnome
[02:41] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: now, in terminal, do sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[02:41] <iiiears> gmoore - gnome - maybe XFCE4 is worth a try. xubuntu made everything easier to install.
[02:42] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, which is your output plugin in xmms? OSS or Alsa?
[02:42] <AkumAPRIME> Couldn't find package 915resolution
[02:42] <AkumAPRIME> :(
[02:42] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: close that terminal... are you using the default GUI in dapper?
[02:42] <kha1i1> thnx ubuot
[02:42] <AkumAPRIME> ywa
[02:42] <AkumAPRIME> yes
[02:42] <HellDragon> how do i know which i use GaiaX11 ?
[02:42] <rixxon> tcpdump printed unexpected stuff - google was echo replying to me! i used ping on google.com some long time ago so this confused me. turns out ping is still running, but in sleep mode. does it still send out echo requests then? seems so anyway. i have many "sleeping" old processes that should be terminated; why don't they terminate properly?
[02:43] <iiiears> gmoore - maybe install the server then apt-get xubuntu-desktop ??
[02:43] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: ok, click System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[02:43] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, try both of them. For me, OSS is fine to play mp3
[02:43] <AkumAPRIME> done
[02:43] <HellDragon> how can i change it ?
[02:43] <HellDragon> lol
[02:43] <Hermitis> krazykit, how to I kill a process?
[02:43] <gmoore> iiiears: hmmm... what would that get me, exactly? :)
[02:44] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: ok, on one of the menus should be Search... search for 915resolution
[02:44] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, I do now. :P
[02:44] <gavagai> gmoore, it would get you xfce
[02:44] <gavagai> without gnome or kde
[02:44] <eonbluezzz> supposedly theres a package for Lame on multiverse but i enabled it and it yields no results
[02:44] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: you *should* be able to install it that way w/o problems
[02:44] <HellDragon> i use ALSSA
[02:44] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, what do you do now?
[02:44] <AkumAPRIME> found it
[02:44] <gmoore> gavagai: does that give you any kind of decent user interface? my ubuntu system is running headless; i only see the GUI when i connect with nomachine X to do anything 'daunting' (anything i'm afraid to do by command line ssh)
[02:45] <krazykit> Hermitis: in that psaux, do sudo kill -9 PID
[02:45] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, in xmms preferences
[02:45] <kbrooks> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[02:45] <AkumAPRIME> dling package info
[02:45] <krazykit> Hermitis: where the PID is that first number.  that sends an unblockable "kill" signal
[02:45] <HellDragon> with OSS it says i need to configure my card
[02:45] <iiiears> the well tested configured server install. and XFCE - less tested though i am afraid doing it this way. - XFCE4 is much lighter on resources for a busy server. - else i would likely choose GNOME. more people use it here. easy answers.
[02:45] <krazykit> Hermitis: just make sure not to kill the wrong thing.
[02:45] <kbrooks> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[02:45] <kbrooks> !info flash
[02:45] <kbrooks> !find flash
[02:45] <Hexidigital_> !flash
[02:45] <gmoore> iiiears: definitely not a 'busy server', but all the same... hmm, k
[02:46] <Healot> bot died
[02:46] <bimberi> ubotu quit a while ago
[02:46] <AkumAPRIME> hmmmm... I will pastebin the errors  because it busted them out ont m
[02:46] <AkumAPRIME> e
[02:46] <krazykit> kbrooks: don't do that.  why not just message ubotu?
[02:46] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, so the problem is the card and not the plugins
[02:46] <kbrooks> krazykit: its dead. scroll up
[02:46] <HellDragon> yeah.
[02:46] <HellDragon> but why it was working 2 days ago GaiaX11 ?
[02:46] <krazykit> kbrooks: yes, i saw.
[02:46] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: sorry, but i have to run... my battery is running very low
[02:46] <AkumAPRIME> peace, thanx for the hand holding
[02:46] <Hexidigital_> AkumAPRIME:: someone here will be able to help you from here on out
[02:46] <Hexidigital_> gnite everyone
[02:46] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, do you mean the xmms?
[02:47] <HellDragon> no, all the comp
[02:47] <HellDragon> i only get sound on xmms
[02:47] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, is amarok working now?
[02:47] <HellDragon> and some weird things but not in games and other thigns
[02:47] <Healot> libxine-extracodecs is your friend almost another day
[02:47] <Hermitis> krazykit, I'm not understanding the kill process command sorry
[02:48] <benzin> hi there..
[02:48] <AkumAPRIME> does anyone know what these errors mean? http://pastebin.com/719866
[02:48] <ardchoille> Hermitis: man kill ?
[02:48] <AkumAPRIME> I cant install resolution915
[02:49] <benzin> how do i connect to a ssl server
[02:49] <benzin> xchat and ssl .. how ?
[02:49] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, what about kscd?
[02:49] <krazykit> Hermitis: when you did psaux, you see the numbers all on the left?  use the numbers that are the explorer process and the c:/whatever process.  so it's be like sudo kill -9 111111, or whatever that number is
[02:49] <HellDragon> huh
[02:50] <HellDragon> 2sec
[02:50] <gmoore> iiiears: what about xubuntu?
[02:50] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, anything?
[02:50] <bimberi> AkumAPRIME: it means that you have two cdrom entries in your sources.list, delete one of them, they're probably both near the top of the file
[02:50] <HellDragon> i got no music cd
[02:50] <AkumAPRIME> bimberi: what if I have 2 cdroms?
[02:51] <errpast-hc> I think I am very close wtih Atheros based 3com card
[02:51] <errpast-hc> But can't get dhcp address
[02:51] <AkumAPRIME> what is the terminal command to bring up source list?
[02:51] <iiiears> gmoore - Sure, Install xubuntu first then LAMP services?
[02:51] <Hermitis> krazykit, :D thanks! I figured it out
[02:51] <errpast-hc> sit0: unknown hardware address type 776
[02:51] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, only mp3?
[02:51] <gmoore> iiiears: LAMP? :-)
[02:51] <HellDragon> yes gabbo

[02:52] <Hermitis> I was thinkin the -9 in the command had to be the PID number like "kill -27262 PID" :D
[02:52] <gmoore> iiiears: oh haha, i usually install apache/mysql/ruby/php/etc by hand :/
[02:52] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, try to play then in totem and mplayer also
[02:52] <Eleaf> hi
[02:52] <iiiears> gmoore - lol - you are right. PHP - duh.
[02:53] <Hermitis> restarting
[02:53] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, still no luck. :(
[02:53] <HellDragon> i got sound in totem and kafeine
[02:53] <kbrooks> OK, community.
[02:53] <HellDragon> and mplayer too
[02:53] <GaiaX11> HellDragon, this test is for you to discover if it is only a plungin problem
[02:53] <kbrooks> --- EasyUbuntu bug squashing ---
[02:53] <DrKevorkian> i'm having serious audio quality problems with any audio, left speakers produce static-y sound
[02:53] <kbrooks> Lately we have discovered lots of bugs in EasyUbuntu
[02:53] <Yonda> I've got the mplayer plugin installed for Firefox, and the audio works, but not the video...
[02:53] <AkumAPRIME> what is the terminal command to bring up that sources files?
[02:53] <gmoore> iiiears: i should probably use lamp next time though
[02:54] <benzin> xchat and ssl .. how ?
[02:54] <DrKevorkian> i can't seem to be able to reinstall audio drivers
[02:55] <iiiears> gmoore - http://www.djangoproject.com/  I don't know anything about servers. a few have said this is interesting.
[02:56] <gmoore> iiiears: yeah i've seen some things about that, supposedly pretty good
[02:57] <Xylene> are there any gui apps that use like, ffmpeg to encode video?
[02:57] <errpast-hc> what would cause a dhcp failure with a wireless card
[02:57] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, my arsenal is finishing
[02:57] <errpast-hc> unknown hardware type 776
[02:57] <errpast-hc> Request goes out, but don't get an address
[02:57] <errpast-hc> eth0 works fine (wired)
[02:57] <vanberge> is there a fast way to change the owner of a folder and all subfolders/files within that folder?
[02:57] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, have you seen your audio permissions?
[02:57] <vanberge> chown username */*  maybe?
[02:58] <errpast-hc> Another wireless card on another computer works with this wireless dhcp server
[02:58] <errpast-hc> any ideas
[02:58] <dv_> chown -R username <dir>
[02:58] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, all I know is that this user was just added to the audio group. What else should I check?
[02:58] <vanberge> dv_:  tyvm
[02:59] <benzin> does anuone knows how to enable ssla for xchat
[02:59] <benzin> ssl
[02:59] <plotinus> hello people, I am having some problems with audio cds: iso9660 cds are normally (auto)mounted, show up in the desktop, etc. however the system seems to be unable to read audio cds (software keeps dropping "CDROMREADTOCHDR: Input/output error"). Can it be an /etc/fstab problem?
[02:59] <HellDragon> errr
[02:59] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: reinstalling audio drivers isn't going to change that. What sound driver do you use?  ``cat /proc/asound/modules''
[02:59] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: sorry
[02:59] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: reinstalling audio drivers isn't going to change that. What sound driver do you use?  ``cat /proc/asound/modules''
[02:59] <bimberi> AkumAPRIME: or use synaptic to disable one of them, Settings -> Repositories
[03:00] <DrKevorkian> crimsun emu10k1x
[03:01] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, which user?
[03:01] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: pastebin ``amixer''
[03:02] <DrKevorkian> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/67469
[03:02] <Yonda> I've got the mplayer plugin installed for Firefox, and the audio works, but not the video...
[03:03] <AkumAPRIME> ok, so I just installed the 915resolution package. I Still cant change my resolution. lol. Any ideas?
[03:04] <bur[n] er> anyone know if there's a way to play .nsv files??
[03:04] <der0b> hey guys, I just noticed an acpi-support update, where can I go to see what's been changed?
[03:04] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac, lets install the plugins then
[03:04] <Vaske_Car> does anybody use Xara for Linux?
[03:05] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: does toggling 'Analog/Digital Output Jack' assuage that?  amixer set 'Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[03:05] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,     *  sudo apt-get install libmad0 libxine1c2
[03:06] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,     sudo apt-get install libmad0 gstreamer0.8-mad
[03:06] <eonbluezzz> !repos
[03:06] <SurfnKid> how can i make grub grab a different splash screen every time at bootup?
[03:06] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,  sudo apt-get install libmad0 libarts1-mpeglib
[03:07] <benzin> does anyone knows how to enable ssl for xchat ?
[03:07] <DrKevorkian> crimsun
[03:07] <SurfnKid> !repo
[03:07] <DrKevorkian> now all i get is white noise
[03:07] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,  so (...)
[03:07] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: ok, so mute it.
[03:08] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: you need to toggle 'Sigmatel Surround Phase Inversion Playback ', too
[03:10] <Eleaf> meow
[03:10] <VoX> moo
[03:10] <AkumAPRIME> How do I change my resolution?
[03:11] <gnomefreak> !fixres
[03:11] <ubotu> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:11] <AkumAPRIME> lets pray, ty
[03:11] <DrKevorkian> crimsun: it says amixer couldn't find that control
[03:11] <errpast-hc> what is sit0: ?
[03:12] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: what command did you use?
[03:12] <HellDragon> wow because of someone i dont have sounds anymore in xmms and other things
[03:12] <crimsun> HellDragon: that's pretty vague.
[03:12] <DrKevorkian> amixer set 'Sigmatel Surround Phase Inversion Playback' on
[03:12] <DrKevorkian> amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Sigmatel Surround Phase Inversion Playback',0
[03:12] <HellDragon> he told me to do killall esd
[03:12] <HellDragon> even if i restart X i get no sound
[03:12] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: you missed the trailing whitespace, which is important.
[03:12] <DrKevorkian> ah
[03:13] <AkumAPRIME> how do I find What xserver driver I want
[03:13] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,  did you give up?
[03:13] <AkumAPRIME> I am have an intel proset 9xx video card
[03:13] <NoUse> HellDragon just open a terminal and type 'esd&'
[03:13] <Sjoerd-> hello, is there anyone available that knows some about awstats? It doesn't recognise browser/bots for me :(
[03:13] <HellDragon> it says already running NoUse ;
[03:13] <GaiaX11> I need a break now :-)
[03:14] <iiiears> sit0: IPV6 tunneled in ipv4 http://www.bieringer.de/linux/IPv6
[03:14] <NoUse> HellDragon have you tried restarting the machine?
[03:14] <HellDragon> yes
[03:15] <NoUse> !sound
[03:15] <crimsun> HellDragon: is System> Preferences> Sound> Enable software sound mixing (ESD)  checked?
[03:15] <ubotu> Help to fix issues with sound can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[03:15] <DrKevorkian> crimsun: i noticed when i'm doing this under 'Playback Channels' its giving me Mono
[03:15] <NoUse> HellDragon ^^^
[03:15] <aaronm23> crimsun: I just wanted to tell you thanks for helping me get my sound working the other day
[03:15] <iiiears> crimsun You are awesome. :)
[03:15] <benzin> does anyone knows how to enable ssl for xchat ?
[03:15] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: yes, that's intentional.
[03:15] <crimsun> aaronm23: np.
[03:15] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, sorry, I'm multitasking quite a bit. The user name you requested is elenore.
[03:16] <SurfnKid> how can I grab a bunch of jpgs from a website
[03:16] <SurfnKid> with the command wget
[03:16] <HellDragon> i cant find what youre saying crimsun
[03:16] <amtneu> anyone here know how to configure network manager in dapper?
[03:16] <blind> 'configure' ?
[03:16] <crimsun> HellDragon: are you using Warty, Hoary, Breezy, or Dapper?
[03:16] <HellDragon> dapper
[03:16] <blind> there's not much to it, amtneu
[03:16] <crimsun> HellDragon: in the System> Preferences> Sound menu, there's a checkbox labeled "Enable software sound mixing (ESD)". Is it checked?
[03:17] <amtneu> well it dident detect the wireless card im using
[03:17] <HellDragon> theres no "preference" in system crimsun
[03:17] <HellDragon> im on kde
[03:17] <amtneu> i have a broadcom card and i have the correct drivers that it supports
[03:17] <DrKevorkian> crimsun: hmm well i'm still getting the poor audio quality, sounds like my left speaker is trying to play the subwoofer part but its plugged in correctly
[03:17] <HellDragon> ill switch brb
[03:17] <crimsun> HellDragon: erm...ok
[03:18] <Xylene> are there any gui apps that use like, ffmpeg to encode video?
[03:18] <AkumAPRIME> well that didnt fix my resolution issue... hmmm
[03:19] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: then you need: amixer set 'Sigmatel 4-Speaker Stereo' on && amixer set 'Sigmatel Surround' on && amixer set 'Surround' 80% on
[03:19] <Sivik> what repo do i need in order to get the kernel-source-2.6 via apt-get?
[03:20] <errpast-hc> I'm getting an inet6 addr with dhclient
[03:20] <crimsun> Sivik: apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
[03:20] <errpast-hc> on my wireless card
[03:20] <errpast-hc> seems related to sit0
[03:20] <iiiears> Xylene: Have you seen http://cinelerra.org/ - Does it look like what you need?
[03:20] <errpast-hc> Not sure what to do
[03:21] <crimsun> HellDragon: it's important to note up front what environment you're using
[03:21] <Xylene> iiiears, will that allow me to transcode mpeg to xvid without the command line?
[03:21] <Sivik> crimsun, that will work if i'm trying to using the source in order to run a new kernel?
[03:21] <cookiecaper> Hi. : ) How do I get aptitude to stop wanting to tell me a solution? I don't want to do what it wants me to.
[03:21] <HellDragon> i got xmms music back
[03:21] <HellDragon> but still no sound in games
[03:21] <crimsun> Sivik: if by "using the source in order to run a new kernel" you really mean "compile my own kernel", then yes.
[03:23] <HellDragon> why its doing that
[03:24] <crimsun> HellDragon: what game{,s}?
[03:24] <HellDragon> all.
[03:24] <HellDragon> and all flash animations
[03:24] <HellDragon> and all java applets
[03:24] <HellDragon> etc..
[03:24] <crimsun> HellDragon: do you have any idea how vague that is? :)
[03:24] <iiiears> Xylene - Hm.. - It looks like it uses mencoder. - i would say it is likely.
[03:24] <vanberge> i dont suppose anybody knows a quick answer to "is it possible to move a mozilla thunderbird profile from windows to linux, retaining settings, rss feeds, mail, address book'  ?    "-)
[03:24] <HellDragon> i cant give more information...
[03:24] <HellDragon> i dont know how i lost my sounds
[03:25] <crimsun> HellDragon: sure you can. You just said xmms works now. Can you tell me which audio i/o output plugin you're using in Preferences?
[03:25] <DrKevorkian> crimsun: hmm seemed a little better but whenever there's a strong base i still get it
[03:25] <HellDragon> crimsun, alsa
[03:25] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: I don't wish to be callous, but the emu10k1x is an extremely crippled dsp.
[03:25] <crimsun> HellDragon: which virtual device is it configured to use?
[03:25] <iiiears> Xylene We are a bit off topic so shh.  - lol -   good luck.  http://www.ftconsult.com/twiki/bin/view/Cinelerra/Rendering#RENDERING_OPTIONS_encoding_tips
[03:26] <Sivik> crimsun, yes, i'm getting an error with the inablity to open directory /lib/modules/kernel
[03:26] <crimsun> Sivik: what's the precise error you're receiving?
[03:26] <HellDragon> crimsun, 2sec
[03:26] <DrKevorkian> would i be better off running on-board audio if theres a different dsp?
[03:27] <crimsun> DrKevorkian: afaik the emu10k1x /is/ onboard.
[03:27] <Sivik> WARNING: couldn't open driectory /lib/modules/2.6.17claytons: No such file or directory
[03:27] <crimsun> Sivik: so you compiled your own 2.6.17?
[03:27] <Sivik> yes
[03:27] <HellDragon> what is virtual device crimsun
[03:27] <crimsun> Sivik: did you execute ``make modules && make modules_install''?
[03:28] <iiiears> Sivik - How did it go? Wireless?
[03:28] <crimsun> HellDragon: it's the device text drop-down menu
[03:28] <crimsun> HellDragon: it should be configured to use "default", not "hw:0,0" or anything of that ilk
[03:28] <Sivik> iiiears, i'm still working on it
[03:29] <Sivik> iiiears, and i haven't tried to install gemu yet
[03:29] <HellDragon> it is on default crimsun
[03:29] <crimsun> HellDragon: good. Now while XMMS is playing, what's the output from ``lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*'' ?
[03:31] <uber_spaced> what's a good chess program for linux?
[03:31] <Sivik> crimsun, didn't know i still needed to do it since i was doing it via the .deb package that i created
[03:32] <crimsun> Sivik: does your generated deb actually contain files in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ ?
[03:32] <pschulz01> Greetings.. The building of modules for VMWare seem to be broken after recent upgrade.. has anyone seen this?
[03:32] <Sivik> crimsun, not sure
[03:32] <crimsun> pschulz01: known. No ETA, devs @Paris conference.
[03:32] <Sivik> crimsun, how would i go about figuring that out
[03:32] <crimsun> Sivik: dpkg-deb -c foo.deb |grep 'lib/modules/'
[03:32] <Sivik> ok
[03:32] <crimsun> (don't paste here)
[03:32] <HellDragon> lol
[03:33] <HellDragon> crimsun i sent u a pm
[03:33] <oomph_> anyone have any experience getting sleep/hibernate to work on a thinkpad?
[03:33] <pschulz01> crimsun: Thanks,.. is there bug number?
[03:33] <Sivik> crimsun, yes it does
[03:33] <crimsun> HellDragon: yeah, I prefer /not/ to receive queries, since they make alternating between buffers highly inconvenient during concurrent sessions
[03:33] <HellDragon> :(
[03:33] <HellDragon> im too lazy to open pastebin
[03:33] <crimsun> Sivik: so why aren't they in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ ?
[03:33] <rixxon> is there some easy command to list the number of lines in a textfile, or do i need to write oneliners?
[03:33] <crimsun> rixxon: wc -l
[03:34] <rixxon> crimsun: cool, thank you
[03:34] <crimsun> pschulz01: I think you'll find faster than I will right now.
[03:34] <nosmofui> which are the minimal requeriments to install ubuntu??
[03:34] <Sivik> crimsun, there is a whole bunch of stuff in the /lib/modules/2.6.17* folder
[03:34] <crimsun> nosmofui: they're enumerated to a general degree in the release announcement
[03:35] <crimsun> Sivik: so what application is throwing the "not found" error?
[03:35] <crimsun> HellDragon: are you in GNOME or KDE currently?
[03:35] <HellDragon> gnome, Cr0w-
[03:35] <HellDragon>  crimsun
[03:35] <crimsun> HellDragon: pkill artsd
[03:36] <HellDragon> !
[03:36] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, HellDragon
[03:36] <Sivik> crimsun, not sure
[03:36] <crimsun> HellDragon: then start a game. Is sound audible?
[03:36] <pschulz01> crimsun: Thanks again.
[03:36] <crimsun> pschulz01: np
[03:36] <oomph_>  when i close the lid and open it again the computer wont come out of sleep
[03:36] <Sivik> crimsun, and its not a program, its doing it while its booting
[03:36] <oomph_> on my laptop
[03:36] <HellDragon> but still no sound :(
[03:36] <crimsun> oomph_: what laptop?
[03:36] <oomph_> anyone got experience troubleshooting that type of issue?
[03:36] <oomph_> IBM thinkpad T40
[03:37] <crimsun> oomph_: dpkg -l acpi-support |grep ^ii
[03:37] <oomph_> sec
[03:38] <SurfnKid> guys is there a way to take over a session
[03:38] <SurfnKid> from lets say putty
[03:38] <HellDragon> :(
[03:38] <crimsun> HellDragon: what game did you attempt?
[03:38] <darkyoshi372> Is fglrx that much better than the stock ati driver?
[03:38] <AkumAPRIME> htf do you install sth as simple as the flash plug in? It DLs a file. A dialog window opens. Do I extract it? do I add it?
[03:38] <HellDragon> enemy territory, a google video, counter-strike
[03:38] <billybennett> Would anyone know why when I try and shutdown the screen blanks out but then it never shuts down no matter how long I wait?
[03:38] <Sivik> crimsun, so whats wrong here?
[03:38] <HellDragon> omg i get sound !
[03:39] <HellDragon> crimsun, i did your command 2 times
[03:39] <dangermonkey> howdy
[03:39] <smahoney> Anybody in here know anything about getting GRUB to boot SDA instead of HDA?
[03:39] <krazykit> darkyoshi372: sorta.  you get 3d acceleration at the cost of some stability
[03:39] <krazykit> smahoney: it's no different.
[03:39] <crimsun> Sivik: again, what program is needing modules in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ ?
[03:39] <HellDragon> thank you very much crimsun
[03:39] <crimsun> HellDragon: np
[03:39] <Sivik> crimsum: its not a program, its doing it during a boot up
[03:39] <dangermonkey> smahoney: well..will there still be an hda?
[03:39] <Sivik> while loading the kernel
[03:39] <HellDragon> i hope i will have it on kde
[03:40] <crimsun> Sivik: so your kernel doesn't boot and panics instead?
[03:40] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Yes
[03:40] <dangermonkey> smahoney: you'd edit /boot/grub/menu.lst or grub.conf
[03:40] <Sivik> crimsun, yes
[03:40] <dangermonkey> smahoney: ok then, it's easy. you can leave grub installed on hda..and leave /boot on hda if you want
[03:40] <crimsun> Sivik: that's simple, then. You didn't include the necessary modules in the initramfs.
[03:40] <Sivik> ok, how do i fix that?
[03:40] <crimsun> Sivik: generate an initramfs.
[03:40] <oomph_> Crimsum: according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptopsIBM
[03:41] <Sivik> !initramfs
[03:41] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Sivik
[03:41] <dangermonkey> smahoney: looke for menu.lst
[03:41] <Sivik> crimsun, ok, never done that before
[03:41] <crimsun> Sivik: that's normally done by passing the --initrd parameter to make-kpkg, or you can use update-initramfs
[03:41] <oomph_> im supposed to : add 'apm=on acpi=off
[03:41] <HellDragon> (can finally watch this video http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8065197329684563529&q=GI+joe )
[03:41] <samsonasu> hello im having a weird problem installing ubuntu.  when i boot from the livecd everything works fine, but after I installed to the hard drive the network only works for about 10 seconds and then i get no route to host trying to get to my router.  I don't get it please help if you can
[03:41] <smahoney> dangermonkey: I'd rather not have anything but home on /hda if I can get away with it.  I've found menu.lst, but editing it isn't so much working (I suppose it would help if I knew what I was doing)
[03:41] <Sivik> crimsun, so i have to rerun that .deb package?
[03:41] <dangermonkey> smahoney: lol
[03:41] <HellDragon> i test sound on kde
[03:41] <crimsun> Sivik: no, see the latter reference
[03:41] <HellDragon> brb
[03:41] <Sivik> crimsun, ok
[03:42] <dangermonkey> smahoney: well, you can install grub on sda instead
[03:42] <dangermonkey> smahoney: grub-install --help
[03:42] <crimsun> oomph_: apm doesn't handle suspend/resume terribly well in many cases
[03:42] <siriusnova> hmm
[03:42] <oomph_> k, im just going by what the wiki said
[03:42] <dangermonkey> smahoney: essentially grub-install /dev/sda   IIRC
[03:42] <oomph_> regarding my hardware support
[03:42] <siriusnova> hey guys it there a way to start a 16 bit X window in a 24 bit desktop?
[03:43] <oomph_> im rather new so trying to follow the docs as best i can
[03:43] <dangermonkey> smahoney: then configure your bios to boot sda
[03:43] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[03:43] <dangermonkey> smahoney: have you partitioned and formatted sda?
[03:44] <samsonasu> sorry am i asking the wrong way or something or does nobody have any idea whats wrong
[03:44] <Sivik> crimsun, there isn't a initrd.img-2.6.17, do i just use the initrd.img-2.6.15 after i run the update?
[03:44] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Yeah, and gparted recognizes the partitions
[03:44] <dangermonkey> smahoney: can you mount it?
[03:44] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Yes
[03:44] <HellDragon> crimsun, i get no sound on kde
[03:44] <dangermonkey> smahoney: is it actually scsi? or is it sata or something?
[03:44] <pschulz01> crimsun: Not that want to unecessarity hassle anyone, but who is the person who knows about the VMWare issue?
[03:45] <dangermonkey> smahoney: also are you running grub-install as root?
[03:45] <crimsun> Sivik: no, you can't reuse the old one. You have to regenerate one for your 2.6.17
[03:45] <Sir-Montag> I have a question about how I would get dapper on a laptop that doesn't have a cdrom - I have an adapter for it - can I slave the laptop hard drive to my PC and install it from there, or does it need to be compiled on the laptop hardware?
[03:45] <smahoney> dangermonkey: How do I find out?  (And yeah, I'm running it with sudo)
[03:45] <Sivik> crimsun: how do i generate one for my 2.6.17?
[03:45] <Sivik> crimsun, there isn't one there for 2.6.17
[03:45] <crimsun> pschulz01: the kernel team knows about it, but the fix it held up while the devs are at the conference
[03:45] <dangermonkey> smahoney: sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt
[03:45] <crimsun> Sivik: I gave you the reference for update-initramfs...
[03:45] <dangermonkey> smahoney: if you can't mount it, you can't install grub on it
[03:45] <Sivik> that would be nice
[03:45] <HellDragon> what it the command for kde ?
[03:46] <Sivik> crimsun, that would be nice
[03:46] <nomasteryoda> Sir-Montag, you can install it via a slaved CDrom drive via network mode too
[03:46] <crimsun> Sivik: what would be nice?
[03:46] <dangermonkey> smahoney: other thing you could try (after you mount it and make sure it's all good) is installing into /dev/sda1 (or whatever the first partition is)
[03:46] <oomph_> crimsum: i checked and already got acpi-support installed
[03:46] <oomph_> what next?
[03:46] <crimsun> Sivik: I told you where to look.
[03:46] <Sjoerd-> hello, is there anyone available that knows some about awstats? It doesn't recognise browser/bots for me :(
[03:46] <nomasteryoda> or network Sir-Montag
[03:46] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Oh, no - I've already mounted it.  I meant how can I find out if its SCSI or SATA or whatever?
[03:46] <samsonasu> are you guys ignoring me?  I really want to give ubuntu a try but this problem is making it very difficult.
[03:46] <crimsun> oomph_: no, you were supposed to tell me the version you have installed.
[03:46] <dangermonkey> anyone running reiser4 ?
[03:46] <pschulz01> crimsun: Ok.. matter of just waiting then? or do you think there is something that an be done? I have a user who uses VMWare and it's currently broken for them..
[03:46] <smahoney> dangermonkey: Its /dev/sda3, and it doesn't work either - same error message
[03:46] <dangermonkey> smahoney: uhhhh
[03:46] <HellDragon> pkill esd
[03:46] <oomph_> 0.84
[03:46] <nomasteryoda> Sir-Montag, you should have the Ubuntu Alternate iso for that purpose
[03:46] <oomph_> thats the version
[03:46] <dangermonkey> smahoney: look in the box?
[03:47] <pschulz01> eg. Can I downgrade sonething.
[03:47] <dangermonkey> smahoney: ;)
[03:47] <crimsun> pschulz01: you can adjust it yourself if you're familiar w/ Debian packaging
[03:47] <samsonasu> will somebody at least say that you can read the words that i am typing
[03:47] <pschulz01> crimun: yes?
[03:47] <crimsun> oomph_: you need to update && upgrade to 0.85 for starters.
[03:47] <crimsun> pschulz01: "yes"  <-- what's this in reference to?|
[03:47] <Sir-Montag> nomasteryoda - it doesn't even have an ethernet port
[03:47] <pschulz01> crimsun: yes? Is it just the headers?
[03:47] <Sir-Montag> that old
[03:47] <HellDragon> crimsun, whats the command when i am on KDE?
[03:47] <KrisWood> Hi everyone, I'm afraid ubuntu isn't going to work out for my desktop PC right now, so I have one last question for you. How do I repartition my hard drives so that the windows fdisk can see them?
[03:47] <crimsun> pschulz01: you need to pull the source package and adjust debian/control, then regen the binary packages
[03:47] <Sir-Montag> it's a Dell Latitude XP4100
[03:48] <pschulz01> crimsun: .. sorry.. yes I can build a package..
[03:48] <oomph_> crimsun: ok done upgrading
[03:48] <HellDragon> ok
[03:48] <crimsun> HellDragon: command to do what?
[03:48] <HellDragon> like pkill artsd
[03:48] <HellDragon> but im on kde
[03:48] <pschulz01> Linux kernel sources?
[03:48] <crimsun> HellDragon: it's the same command -- or you can disable the sound server in KDE's System Settings> Audio
[03:49] <HellDragon> hmm ok ty :)
[03:49] <rixxon> is there some easy way to search all folders in $PATH
[03:49] <crimsun> pschulz01: no, the source for vmware-player-kernel-modules
[03:49] <rixxon> ok. they're called directories. :P
[03:49] <prwlr> KrisWood, gparted or partition magic
[03:50] <KrisWood> prwlr: can I use that on my ubuntu system partition while it's runing? :-/
[03:50] <LjL> rixxon: find `echo $PATH | tr ":" " "` | grep <word-you-want-to-search-for-in-the-filename>
[03:50] <Sir-Montag> how would I put it on a machine that has no network adapter or cd-rom?
[03:50] <HellDragon> i cant get pkill artsd working , i get no sound in games
[03:50] <LjL> rixxon: if that's what you mean
[03:50] <pschulz01> Ahh.. the probelam that I am having is with building the modules for 'VMWare-workstation'. but If I could get vmware-player working, I could at least use the virual machines.
[03:51] <rixxon> LjL: i was looking for some short fast-to-type command :)
[03:51] <Sir-Montag> it has a parallel port, serial, and built in floppy
[03:51] <prwlr> KrisWood, sure
[03:51] <HellDragon> nevermind.
[03:51] <crimsun> pschulz01: did you download -workstation from VMWare's Web site?
[03:51] <KrisWood> ok,,, here we go...
[03:51] <pschulz01> crimsun: yes.
[03:51] <Sir-Montag> I have an EIDE to laptop hard drive adapter, so I can slave the laptop hard drive to my machine
[03:51] <rixxon> LjL: i mean find files by name
[03:51] <crimsun> pschulz01: then you need to install linux-headers-$(uname -r) and regenerate whatever kernel modules you had to generate before for the older kernel.
[03:51] <pschulz01> crimsun: VMware-workstation-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
[03:51] <Sir-Montag> but I don't know whether it needs to be compiled on the laptop hardware or not
[03:52] <samsonasu> hello?
[03:52] <crimsun> samsonasu: don't ask to ask.
[03:52] <LjL> rixxon: then just  make an alias.  type    alias fastfind="`echo $PATH | tr ':' ' '` | find | grep"
[03:52] <samsonasu> im having a problem with my network it dies a few seconds after i boot up.  I can usually load one web page or ping something for a few seconds
[03:52] <LjL> rixxon: after that, you'll simply be able to type "fastfind blah"
[03:53] <samsonasu> after that I start seeing unroutable errors to my router
[03:53] <LjL> rixxon: and yes, my command does search for filenames
[03:53] <rixxon> LjL: uh nevermind, i didn't see the "find" there
[03:53] <dbcalo> is there a smaller package cd some where. trying to compile the 2.6.17 kernel to get wireless working but none of the dependencies i need are on the live cd. also trying to avoid downloading the whole dvd right now.
[03:53] <rixxon> LjL: thanks
[03:53] <crimsun> samsonasu: any clues from ``dmesg |tail''?
[03:53] <da`bahny> any problems using the package manager in ubuntu?
[03:53] <oomph_> crimsun: so should I get rid of this statement add 'apm=on acpi=off
[03:54] <crimsun> oomph_: probably not, I'm not familiar w/ your model (mine's an X41-2527)
[03:54] <oomph_> from my /boot/grub/ menu.lst file
[03:54] <AK7> aargh, whats the name of that hosting service everyone's always raving about?
[03:54] <eugman> Is there a way to make a list of all packages which are not a dependecie of an installed package?
[03:54] <crimsun> deborphan?
[03:54] <LjL> eugman: try debfoster
[03:54] <oomph_> what happens is when i open the lid to my laptop it powers up again
[03:54] <dbcalo> everything would be a-ok if i able to plug into an ethernet cable in this room.
[03:54] <oomph_> but i cant click anything
[03:54] <oomph_> the video comes back
[03:54] <oomph_> and i can move my mouse
[03:55] <samsonasu> it looks good to me.  the last thing in dmesg that references network says "no IPv6 routers present" and then "Registered protocol family 31"
[03:55] <LjL> eugman: follow crimsun's suggestion, deborphan is more appropriate
[03:55] <KrisWood> well, I loved using ubuntu for the last few days, I just wish I could have got my windows apps working properly in it. I'll keep using it on my server PC but my desktop machine is back to windows for now. Farewell everyone! Thanks to everyone who helped me out here over the last few days! :)
[03:55] <samsonasu> the network works prefectly when i boot from the livecd too, its only from the hd install that it is broken
[03:55] <Sir-Montag> anyone know how I would go about installing dapper on a laptop that only has a floppy drive (no cdrom, USB or any other input)? I can slave the hard drive to my regular machine - would that help?
[03:55] <Sivik> crimsum: i'm lost with trying to use update-initramfs to create a initrd
[03:56] <LjL> KrisWood: well, Wine is far from perfect i suppose.
[03:56] <HellDragon> hummmmmmmmm iit seems i cant get my music working at the same time while playing a game
[03:56] <Sivik> crimsun, it says to -c to create a new one but then it says create mode requires a version argument
[03:56] <da`bahny> crimsun.  anything wrong with the package manager?
[03:56] <eugman> Well deborphan doesn't do exactly what I'd like. For example Sometimes I install things temporarilly like fontforge and I forget about them.
[03:56] <GaiaX11> Drac|Mac,  have a look in http://amarok.kde.org/amarokwiki/index.php/MP3_on_Ubuntu_5.10
[03:56] <crimsun> Sivik: so pass it a version :)
[03:56] <Sivik> crimsun, i did
[03:56] <Zambezi> What can I use instead of MythTV?
[03:56] <freakabcd> hi all
[03:57] <Sivik> initrd.img-2.6.17
[03:57] <KrisWood> LjL 3dsmax won't even install on Wine or Crossover office, and is elusive in cedega. :-/ I'll give it a try again in a few years.
[03:57] <errpast-hc> anyone use pptpconfig gui front end for pptp connections
[03:57] <freakabcd> what package do i need to be able to do kernel devel?
[03:57] <da`bahny> Zambezi.  xawtv.
[03:57] <dbcalo> so am i stuck downloading the dvd to get the correct dependencies to compile the newest kernel to get my wireless working?
[03:57] <LjL> eugman: hmm i'm not sure... the description does say "It determines which packages have no other packages depending on their installation", which sounds just about like what you asped
[03:57] <errpast-hc> Am having trouble installing pptpconfig
[03:57] <Sivik> crimsun, is initrd.img-2.6.17 not the right way
[03:57] <crimsun> Sivik: no, it's not an initrd, so don't use any reference to initrd.
[03:57] <freakabcd> by that i mean writing modules, not necessarily the kernel tree itself
[03:57] <Sivik> crimsun, ok, then i'm still totally lost
[03:57] <crimsun> Sivik: it's an initramfs, and you only pass ``uname -r''
[03:57] <Zambezi> da`bahny, Can it record?
[03:57] <LjL> KrisWood: i suppose the 3D modelling programs for linux aren't enough developed to use them instead, yet?
[03:57] <Ackeubu_> heey i booted up as xubuntu???!!
[03:57] <Ackeubu_> after update..
[03:57] <da`bahny> no.  only capture i think.
[03:58] <Sivik> crimsun, then i guess i don't understand what i'm trying to do here
[03:58] <KrisWood> LjL: I do 3d modeling for a living. Some of my clients use proprietary 3dsmax plugins to export to their software
[03:58] <Zambezi> da`bahny, Works for me.
[03:58] <eugman> LjL, Well I think it only helps with cruft. For example i don't think it will show if nvu is installed.
[03:58] <nekostar> pcbsd here i cum
[03:58] <Mr_Freeman> is there an easy  way to  upgrade from breezy to hoary with out re-formatting my system?
[03:58] <corfe> how do I modify sensible-editor from the command line?
[03:58] <Mr_Freeman> err breezy to dapper
[03:58] <corfe> I want it to be vim, instead of whatever it is now.
[03:58] <KrisWood> If I want to keep making money I've got to keep using 3dsmax
[03:58] <AkumAPRIME> is there any way to make the desktop background change every X units of time, a la other distros?
[03:58] <crimsun> Sivik: the kernel can't find the directory because it doesn't have / mounted, does it?
[03:59] <Paradoxx> !amarok
[03:59] <LjL> KrisWood: i see, well that's the kind of situation where you really need windows i suppose. though VMWare is getting 3D acceleration right now (still experimental), so i think you'd be able to use 3DS under it in a short while
[03:59] <freakabcd> corfe, export EDITOR=vim
[03:59] <eugman> Mr_Freeman, yes , does update manager have an upgrade button when you run it?
[03:59] <pschulz01> crimsun: There is something odd going on.. It used to work for me.
[03:59] <freakabcd> on your current shell or put that in your ~/.bashrc
[03:59] <Paradoxx> how do i get amarok 1.4?
[03:59] <Mr_Freeman> im not sure one second
[03:59] <Sivik> crimsun, i have no clue
[03:59] <crimsun> Paradoxx: see the topic in #kubuntu
[03:59] <KrisWood> LjL: Parallels claims that they'll have that sort of thing running without much if any slowdown soon, but they're still not quite there yet
[03:59] <iiiears> What is the command to mount a remote samba directory?  Okay. NVM - just tell me what port samba uses?
[03:59] <LjL> eugman: it's just that by default it only shows the packages in the "lib" section. try "deborphan -a"
[03:59] <corfe> freakabcd: hmm. That'll work per session, but can't I tell the system to use it everytime?
[04:00] <crimsun> Sivik: please read the mkinitramfs man page, then. I have to return to work.
[04:00] <corfe> make sensible-editor "point" to vim?
[04:00] <Paradoxx> crimsun: but i am useing ubuntu
[04:00] <HellDragon> crimsun do you know why i can only use 1 thing at a time ? i cant listen to music and play
[04:00] <freakabcd> corfe, what do you mean sensible-editor
[04:00] <freakabcd> ?
[04:00] <Mr_Freeman> no it says my system is up to date
[04:00] <crimsun> HellDragon: because you need to use plug:dmix
[04:00] <Sivik> crimsun, i have read the man page, it makes no sens
[04:00] <Sivik> sense
[04:00] <HellDragon> what is that
[04:00] <NoUse> Paradoxx ubuntu and kubuntu are the same thing, just different Desktops
[04:00] <NoUse> !tell Paradoxx about amarok
[04:00] <geeksauce> i did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and now totem won't play mp3's...am i going to have to re-install the packages to play mp3's EVERY time i upgrade?
[04:00] <LjL> eugman: look also at the "--priority" option
[04:01] <corfe> freakabcd: to be honest I'm using debian, but the people there are unresponsive. I was assuming this aspect of ubuntu was the same, perhaps incorrectly.
[04:01] <eugman> Mr_Freeman, Well there should be an upgrade option up top. Try running update-manager -d
[04:01] <HellDragon> how can i enable it crimsun ?
[04:01] <oomph_> LJL if Vmware gets 3d acceleration would we be able to play video games on it?
[04:01] <oomph_> :P
[04:01] <Ackeubu_> Hey guys is there a thing called eubuntu??
[04:01] <crimsun> HellDragon: it's already enabled unless you've created your own /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc*
[04:01] <LjL> oomph_: i suppose so, if it ever gets *decent* acceleration
[04:01] <NoUse> Ackeubu_ yes
[04:01] <LjL> Ackeubu_: there is *edu*buntu
[04:01] <NoUse> !tell Ackeubu_ about edubuntu
[04:01] <freakabcd> corfe, did you even check what this 'sensible-editor' is?
[04:02] <oomph_> ljl ever used Cdega?
[04:02] <HellDragon> it seems that is not already enabled :(
[04:02] <freakabcd> corfe, if not let me tell you: its a shell script
[04:02] <LjL> oomph_: tried it.
[04:02] <CarsomyrXIII> Ackeubu_: I think there's an enlightnement ubuntu or something saw it on wiki
[04:02] <oomph_> ljl: any good?
[04:02] <LjL> oomph_: with only one program (Orbiter). i'm not much of a gamer at all
[04:02] <corfe> freakabcd: oh
[04:02] <corfe> freakabcd: heh thanks
[04:02] <Ackeubu_> oohu, i thought eubuntu had something to do with enlightenment,. like kde has with kubuntu. :o
[04:02] <crimsun> HellDragon: no, it is enabled. ``grep default /usr/share/alsa/cards/EMU10K1X.conf''
[04:02] <LjL> oomph_: can't really say. it didn't work well with that one program, but you'd definitely have to try some more to say something.
[04:02] <freakabcd> corfe, if the EDITOR environment variable is set it WILL launch _your_ desired editor when sensible-editor is run
[04:02] <crimsun> HellDragon: sorry, but I have a teleconference now.
[04:02] <HellDragon> # default with dmix & dsnoop
[04:02] <HellDragon> EMU10K1X.pcm.default {
[04:03] <HellDragon> ok
[04:03] <oomph_> ljl: yeah i may try it some day
[04:03] <freakabcd> Ackeubu_, that ebuntu or e17buntu or whatever.. not edubuntu
[04:03] <HellDragon> i cant listen to 2 things at the same time !!!!!!!!
[04:04] <nathanael> How do I make the icons on my taskbar expand in Gnome? (I make the taskbar bigger, but the icons stay the same size!!)
[04:04] <geeksauce> anyone?
[04:04] <Ackeubu_> freakabcd, aah so there is ebuntu and edubuntu. he. a litle bit confusing
[04:04] <freakabcd> nathanael, complain to the gnome people!!
[04:04] <nathanael> Their chan is a ghost town
[04:04] <freakabcd> Ackeubu_, its quite confusing with all these meta distros
[04:04] <Ackeubu_> aye
[04:04] <hackob> -
[04:05] <iiiears> What port does samba use?   (netstat boggles the mind - too many open connections.)
[04:05] <nathanael> 139
[04:05] <Ackeubu_> freakabcd, im gonna log out and back in in enlightenment if i can. cya
[04:05] <thomasM> hello, i'm configuring gaim2beta3, and i need to know where the "dbus services directory" is... could somebody help me find this?
[04:05] <iiiears> nathaniel Thank You.
[04:05] <nathanael> NetBIOS/SMB
[04:05] <Sivik> anyone here understand how to use the mkinitramfs
[04:06] <corfe> freakabcd: you're right, and it was too complicated for my knowledge to edit, but I figured about my problem, thanks!
[04:06] <freakabcd> corfe, yes. you _don't_ need to edit sensible-editor. just set EDITOR to whatever you want and it will be run
[04:06] <amtneu> anyone here get network-manager to work with a broadcom card?
[04:06] <nomasteryoda> Sir-Montag, you getting any help?
[04:06] <Sivik> amtneu: use the new 2.6.17 kernel
[04:06] <Sir-Montag> nope
[04:06] <samsonasu> helldragon you might want to look into alsa i think that used to solve the problem although i dont know a lot about ubuntu
[04:07] <nomasteryoda> just sec
[04:07] <nathanael> Sorry mates, I'm just transforming my desktop into OSX, and the gnome bottom panel isn't co-operating
[04:07] <Sir-Montag> ok
[04:07] <amtneu> i think i have that kernal, let me check
[04:07] <Sir-Montag> thanks
[04:07] <Sivik> amtneu: the drivers should be native in the kernel
[04:07] <nathanael> The icons stay small - ironically, except for the trash bin, which grows proportionately
[04:07] <LjL> nathanael: OS X eh? how are you going to get top-of-the-screen menus? i bet you aren't :-)
[04:07] <freakabcd> HellDragon, as previously stated by someone. if you have only 1 stream playing at any 1 time, its probably because you're app(s) are using the oss device directly
[04:07] <nathanael> hmm
[04:07] <nathanael> now I shall have to
[04:08] <HellDragon> freakabcd, how can i change that ?
[04:08] <LjL> nathanael: easy, just get yourself KDE :-P
[04:08] <thomasM> nathaneal you might find better answers in the gnome irc channel...
[04:08] <iiiears> LjL - There are many mysteries hidden in gconf-editor.
[04:08] <nathanael> checked there - noone
[04:08] <LjL> iiiears: not that one mystery, for what i know. and i did search
[04:08] <geeksauce> alright, well at the very least, could uboto tell me about installing the right packages to play mp3's?
[04:08] <iiiears> hm
[04:08] <freakabcd> HellDragon, depends on app. example for mplayer: mplayer -ao alsa file1.mp3; then in another terminal/shell mplayer -ao alsa video1.avi
[04:08] <polpak> Anyone familiar with setting up multiheaded xorg config (using i810 driver) ?
[04:09] <NoUse> !mp3
[04:09] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:09] <amtneu> sivik: the card works, but network-manager doesent see it
[04:09] <HellDragon> im trying to listen music while playing
[04:09] <HellDragon> it was working yesterday..
[04:09] <freakabcd> HellDragon, the thing is you need to setup the apps to use the alsa device(s).
[04:09] <Elly> hey guys, is 4gb sufficient for a basic ubuntu desktop system?
[04:09] <polpak> Elly: yes
[04:09] <Boelcke> Elly, sure.
[04:09] <human> Elly, yeah
[04:09] <HellDragon> how can i make flash use alsa freakabcd ??
[04:09] <freakabcd> and even after you've done that, if one app (such as amsn) grabs the oss device, then you're stuck
[04:09] <thomasM> elly that + a home partition at least :D
[04:09] <HellDragon> i cant listen 2 flash animations at the same time , freakabcd
[04:09] <HellDragon> only 1 get sound
[04:10] <samsonasu> ok ubuntu reguses to work im going back to windows
[04:10] <samsonasu> ill try again next year!
[04:10] <Paradoxx> !amarok
[04:10] <ubotu> amarok is, like, a music player for Linux and Unix with an intuitive interface. See http://amarok.kde.org ; amaroK's features: http://amarok.kde.org/content/view/51/1/ - To install Amarok 1.4 on Ubuntu, see http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.php
[04:10] <freakabcd> HellDragon, actually i haven't figured that out myself :( i wanted to do that same thing the other day
[04:10] <HellDragon> but it was working for me yesterday!
[04:10] <thomasM> so nobody knows where the dbus services folder is located?
[04:10] <NoUse> samsonasu if you ask for help we might be able to assist
[04:10] <garryfre> Here is a mystery for folks. When I try to shut down my computer, instead of turning off, it reboots. It used to work fine. If I remove a card or driver it might fix it for a week, then it starts doing this again. It happens whether I'm running Windows, Slackware, or Ubuntu dapper. I've done tons of research tried all manner of bios settings. No permanant joy. MB is Intel D865 Perl Audology 2 Sound blaster.
[04:10] <LjL> nathanael: look at the third of these screenshots. *that's* OSX-like. http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=34993
[04:10] <samsonasu> like i said my network card dies after 10 seconds after i installed
[04:11] <samsonasu> it works perfectly from the livecd
[04:11] <samsonasu> i cant for the life of me figure out what is different between the two
[04:11] <thomasM> garryfre its definitely your motherboard then.
[04:11] <polpak> samsonasu: probably a misconfiguration
[04:11] <NoUse> samsonasu what kind of network card?
[04:11] <polpak> samsonasu: which seems like a silly reason to give up
[04:11] <samsonasu> it came with my dell

[04:12] <samsonasu> lspci says its a Davicom Semiconductor 21x4x DEC-Tulip compatible
[04:12] <garryfre> thomasM Something sure, strange. I was thinking maybe something on the hard drives or bios, for it worked fine for a month. First windows started doing this, then slackware, lastly ubuntu.
[04:13] <Sivik> how do i go about creating a new initramfs
[04:13] <samsonasu> although i cant figure out what kernel module its using
[04:13] <HellDragon> brb
[04:13] <GaiaX11> how do i access another machine throgh vnc. I have xvncviewer and the other machine has tightvncserver
[04:13] <freakabcd> samsonasu, what dell laptop ?
[04:14] <garryfre> dmesg might tell you waht module.
[04:14] <samsonasu> its a desktop

[04:14] <iamcitizen> Hey guys, when I turn on my computer, Grub loads fine, and then it goes to the next page, and it has some text, and then it says "Ok, Booting the kernel..." After that, it just sits at a black screen, but it used to display the start up processes, with that progress bar. I can still boot, but I would like to have that progress bar. Any ideas?
[04:14] <benkong2> could someone look at this and tell me why my mouse stops scrolling in firefox? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16040
[04:15] <samsonasu> grahaha nouse you are the man
[04:15] <samsonasu> i swear i searched the forums earlier but never for davicom
[04:15] <benkong2> also I have a logitech media mouse USB style
[04:15] <bigbadgoat> hi, not sure if i'm in the right room, need help setting wireless on a laptop
[04:16] <NoUse> samsonasu I actually just punch the line you gave me from lspci and added 'ubuntu'
[04:16] <NoUse> samsonasu into google
[04:16] <iamcitizen> what's up, bigbadgoat?
[04:16] <samsonasu> heh

[04:16] <bigbadgoat> trying to get wireless internet working on my laptop
[04:16] <human> whitesuit, GAIM
[04:16] <iamcitizen> whitesuit, aMSN
[04:16] <benkong2> one other question. I made a seperate user for my grand children with limited access. How can I install flash in firefox for them. They cannot su to root
[04:17] <Sivik> bigbadgoat, what wireless card?
[04:17] <dooglus> human: he said *voice*
[04:17] <NoUse> benkong2 if you installed flash via synaptic they will have it too
[04:17] <whitesuit> human, how can i activate it in gaim?
[04:17] <bigbadgoat> internal, intel
[04:17] <iamcitizen> aMSN has voice and video
[04:17] <iamcitizen> ok
[04:17] <benkong2> NoUse: ok let me check
[04:17] <garryfre> I dunno about the mouse issue in firefox, but I see you are not using the accellerated nvidia drivers but the default non-hardware accellerated driver "nv". You might want to get some more speed out of that card.
[04:17] <SurfnKid> whats the extension in gimp to save to xpm.gz
[04:18] <samsonasu> NoUse yea now i feel dumb
[04:18] <iamcitizen> bigbadgoat, click on System, then Administration, then Networking
[04:18] <bigbadgoat> a buddy of mine already set it up for a WPA account I have at university, which works fine, now I need to set it up on my WEP network at home
[04:18] <MdSalih> how can i share a ubuntu folder over the network with an xp machine.. do i need to install samba on the xp machine?
[04:18] <iamcitizen> you will be prompted for your PW
[04:18] <NoUse> samsonasu hey as long as its working, we're happy :-)
[04:18] <bigbadgoat> I have done that
[04:18] <iamcitizen> ok
[04:18] <iamcitizen> what happens?
[04:18] <samsonasu> now i just have to try to get my dual head nvidia to work
[04:18] <bigbadgoat> it just refuses to connect
[04:18] <samsonasu> and ill be set :)
[04:18] <gavagai> MdSalih, you can share it with nfs or samba.  you don't need to install anything on the xp machine.
[04:18] <iiiears> !wine
[04:18] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[04:19] <dooglus> MdSalih: no, only on ubuntu
[04:19] <SurfnKid> would anyone know the extension for saving xpm.gz from gimp. is it xcl.gz?
[04:19] <freakabcd> samsonasu, dualhead on nvidia (or intel) is a piece of cake
[04:19] <benkong2> NoUse: I did install flashplugin-nonfree from synaptic. could it have something to do with the groups I put them in?
[04:19] <iamcitizen> bigbadgoat, go to the terminal and do "sudo apt-get install network-manager"
[04:19] <NoUse> benkong2 possibly, its not showing up in their firefox?
[04:19] <iamcitizen>  Hey guys, when I turn on my computer, Grub loads fine, and then it goes to the next page, and it has some text, and then it says "Ok, Booting the kernel..."

[04:20] <benkong2> NoUse: no when they go to a flash site they get need to install plugin
[04:20] <iiiears> !ubotu wine is also <reply> Wine for 64 bit. http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit
[04:20] <ubotu> iiiears: okay
[04:20] <bigbadgoat> what did that do?
[04:20] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, check your menu.lst file for inclusion of 'splash' and 'quiet'
[04:20] <eclypse> hey all when I try to compile a program from source, ./configure reviels the following error... No package 'gtk+2.0' found. anyone know?
[04:20] <iamcitizen> ok
[04:20] <iamcitizen> hold up
[04:21] <samsonasu> freakabcd do you have a link?  I saw a post with 3 different methods to try is that the one?
[04:21] <Sivik> eclypse, then you need to install gtk
[04:21] <ubuntu_> hi, i have linksys WPC11 v4 in my laptop. How can I install the driver in ubuntu 5.1?
[04:21] <eclypse> exactly what do I type into apt-get?
[04:21] <NoUse> benkong2 they should be readable to everyone
[04:21] <benkong2> NoUse: hmmmm....??
[04:21] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, i see it a few times
[04:21] <NoUse> eclypse what program?
[04:21] <uXp> who knows of a nice music player, nice and simple besides xmms
[04:21] <puff> How do I see what graphics hardware this machine has?
[04:21] <eclypse> its a program called ophcrack-2.2
[04:21] <NoUse> puff lspci
[04:22] <Boelcke> CLI syntax help! I can mount an nfs drive specifying the IP address, but it won't work with the hostname. "mount -t nfs 192.168.1.100:/shared" works, but not "mount -t nfs ubuntubox:/shared"  Why not?
[04:22] <puff> I don't see anyhting obvious under /proc, maybe i'm missing it.
[04:22] <NoUse> eclypse if its asking gtk you need the -dev package, it will be libgtk2.0-dev probably
[04:22] <freakabcd> samsonasu, i don't remember all the links. but heres the gist: 2 monitor sections, 2 device sections, 2 screen sections. then in the serverlayout section you need the xinerama setup: screen1 leftof screen0 (or similar)
[04:22] <NoUse> eclypse search synaptic
[04:22] <eclypse> k
[04:22] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, my first option on the list looks like this: kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-25-386 root=/dev/hda2 ro quiet splash
[04:22] <freakabcd> samsonasu, oh and if you're nvidia. you _must_ have Option "Twinview" on
[04:23] <freakabcd> or is it TwinView
[04:23] <bigbadgoat> do I need to do anything else?
[04:23] <buggzero> pray
[04:23] <buggzero> that it works
[04:23] <freakabcd> don't remember exactly. but thats the only difference between regular xinerama and nvidia xinerama
[04:23] <ubuntu_> Hi, any body use Linksys PCMCIA wireless card in ubuntu?
[04:23] <NoUse> freakabcd samsonasu I think its all listed here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[04:23] <samsonasu> sweet thanks guys
[04:24] <freakabcd> NoUse, its no use to me. i already have xinerama working great on intel i815
[04:24] <freakabcd> ;)
[04:24] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: what do you mean?
[04:24] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, huh?
[04:24] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: intel cards can handle multiple displays?
[04:24] <samsonasu> im gonna go grab some dinner.  now that my network is up do you guys recommend an irc client?  the last one i used on linux was bitchx and that was a million years ago
[04:24] <bigbadgoat> that didnt help
[04:24] <bigbadgoat> still no connection
[04:24] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, err.. yeah the laptop ones can for a few years already~~
[04:25] <Davo_Dinkum> i use GAIM for IRC and it works well
[04:25] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: I have a laptop with an intel card
[04:25] <freakabcd> were you living under a rock?
[04:25] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: how would I go about using it should I so desire
[04:25] <samsonasu> woah gaim does irc
[04:25] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, what card
[04:25] <dooglus> samsonasu: irssi
[04:25] <samsonasu> crazy
[04:25] <RadiantFire> i think its i915
[04:25] <GaiaX11> samsonasu, xchat
[04:25] <RadiantFire> lemme check real quick
[04:25] <Phenom_2> Hello
[04:25] <ZeZu> is there anyway to change a username, other than recreating and deleting ?
[04:25] <puff>  Hm, on my old ubuntu install (hoary, on my laptop) i can right-click open terminal, but on this dapper install I just set up, that's not there.
[04:25] <oomph_> sam: koversation is good or Xchat
[04:25] <uXp> samsonasu:  i say Xchat
[04:25] <buggzero> gaim is better than xchat for irc
[04:25] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, there shouldn't be any problems for you for having xinerama
[04:25] <puff> Either I added that and forgot about it, or something changed.
[04:25] <samsonasu> ok cool ill see you cats later
[04:25] <Davo_Dinkum> irssi is for the CLI junkie
[04:25] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, i see this: kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-25-386 root=/dev/hda2 ro quiet splash
[04:25] <dooglus> ZeZu: sudo usermod -l newname oldname
[04:25] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: so, what happens when I plug a monitor into the hack in the back?
[04:26] <puff> NoUse: domo.
[04:26] <ZeZu> danke
[04:26] <oomph_> bitchx not bad
[04:26] <uXp> halo
[04:26] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, i can paste my current xorg.conf if you desire to see it (and amend it to your configuration)
[04:26] <RadiantFire> sure
[04:26] <whitesuit> how can i send voice messages in aMSN without using webcam?
[04:26] <dooglus> Davo_Dinkum: the CLI for irssi is pretty easy:  you type "irssi" and hit return...
[04:26] <ZeZu> now lets see if it works brb
[04:26] <bigbadgoat> sigh..
[04:26] <samsonasu> i like command line stuff i think ill give irssi a spin
[04:26] <OniAnubis> anyone here know anything about the sparc port?
[04:26] <Davo_Dinkum> dooglus: yeah ive used it b4
[04:26] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, if you just plug in the external monitor, chances are nothing will happen :( cos you need to setup xorg.conf for the xinerama support
[04:26] <Hermitis> Can someone help me out with installing Battlefield 2 in Ubuntu? I'm using wine but I keep getting a message when I try to run setup.exe "You need administrative rivilages to do this" ???
[04:26] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: I don't suppose I could use Guidance to configre it?
[04:27] <freakabcd> Guidance? never heard of it.
[04:27] <freakabcd> trust me its easy as pie
[04:27] <Boelcke> Sorry to repeat a questio about mounting: I can mount an nfs drive specifying the IP address, but it won't work with the hostname. "mount -t nfs 192.168.1.100:/shared" works, but not "mount -t nfs ubuntubox:/shared"  Why not?
[04:27] <varsendaggr> Hermitis, try sudo
[04:27] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: the nifty xorg configurator in kubuntu's system settings
[04:27] <bigbadgoat> is there a better room for wireless issues?
[04:27] <dooglus> Boelcke: I guess because the client doesn't know the name ubuntubox?
[04:27] <freakabcd> wait, take a look at my xorg.conf first. then you decide if you really need to use Guidance, ok?
[04:27] <dooglus> Boelcke: add it to /etc/hosts
[04:27] <Davo_Dinkum> anyone using bootchart? i installed it but i dont know how to make it run at startup
[04:28] <Boelcke> dooglus, do I add the name of the computer I'm connecting TO to my /etc/hosts file?!?
[04:28] <OniAnubis> is there an irc channel just for the sparc version of ubuntu?
[04:28] <Drac|Mac> GaiaX11, heya, I'm back again. After doing  sudo apt-get install libmad0 gstreamer0.8-mad, apps still have no access to ALSA, it seems. What were you saying before about the audio pemissions thing?
[04:28] <gavagai> Drac|Mac, is your user in the audio group?
[04:28] <Drac|Mac> This keyboard has no insert key, and yet I seem to be stuck in insert mode. How can I get out of this?
[04:28] <Davo_Dinkum> bootchart, anyone?
[04:28] <dooglus> Boelcke: you add its name and IP address (but in the opposite order)
[04:29] <Drac|Mac> gavagai, yep.
[04:29] <Boelcke> When I poll my router, it seems to know both ubuntu computer's hostnames...
[04:29] <dooglus> Boelcke: try running "host ubuntubox" to check whether it can resolve the hostname
[04:29] <Boelcke> dooglus, but the whole reason I want to use the name, is because with DHCP, the name keeps changing!  running it...
[04:29] <dooglus> Boelcke: I see
[04:29] <dooglus> Boelcke: does "host ubuntubox" find its address?
[04:30] <Boelcke> dooglus, nope.  It doesn't find the address of either PC.
[04:30] <dooglus> Boelcke: that's the problem then
[04:30] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16041
[04:30] <OniAnubis> is there a graphical dns config for ubuntu?
[04:30] <garryfre> I saw that there is an option called mounthouse=name. You might try that Boelcke
[04:30] <Boelcke> dooglus, Um, okay, but what's the question?  ;)
[04:30] <garryfre> er mounthost
[04:31] <dooglus> Boelcke: the question was "why doesn't mount work when I give the hostname, but it does when I give the IP address?"
[04:31] <wenko> netbios names
[04:31] <wenko> or no dns server
[04:31] <garryfre> Try putting mounthost= before the name?
[04:31] <Boelcke> dooglus, I'm sorry to be dense, but, I mean, why can't I refer to these PCs by the hostname?  I'm still not getting it.  I can ping the IP, but not the hostname.
[04:31] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, few things to notice: only additions to the already present xorg.conf will be: 1 extra device section (identical to existing one), 1 extra monitor section, 1 extra screen section(can be identical.. but not always is), and additional line in Serverlayout
[04:31] <benkong2> brb
[04:31] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: yeah
[04:31] <RadiantFire> i gotit
[04:32] <HellDragon> my sound is not workin anymore
[04:32] <wenko> DNS
[04:32] <wenko> WINS
[04:32] <wenko> NetBIOS
[04:32] <wenko> u need one of those 3
[04:32] <wenko> not wins becauseof linux, and netbios is local...so..use ur hosts file
[04:32] <wenko> or make a dns server
[04:33] <|rt|> i just updated and X failed to start...i believe i need to update the nvidia driver...how do i use apt to find the name of the package?
 your ubuntu box is not resolving the hostnames to the ip addresses. You need a dns server or you need to add the ip addresses and host names to your /etc/hosts file
[04:33] <HellDragon> anyone can give me the log when i was talking with crimsun ?
[04:33] <garryfre> Looks like wenko is onto something. Your machine doesn't know what the address is for your host name so it can't resolve it.
[04:33] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, care to try it out now? man i even have aiglx+compiz working on this laptop and its funky
[04:33] <Boelcke> OniAnubis, and my router can't be the dns server?
[04:33] <dooglus> Boelcke: I don't know why.  Does http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-88206.html help?
[04:33] <Boelcke> dooglus, checking...
[04:33] <dooglus> OniAnubis: he's using DHCP
[04:33] <OniAnubis> what router do you have?
[04:33] <gri6507> Hi everybody. can anyone help with a noob (sortof) question about NVidia drivers / GLX / 3D accelration?
[04:33] <dooglus> OniAnubis: so /etc/hosts doesn't help
[04:33] <freakabcd> but i don't use it all the time. i revert to the xinerama setup for most of my work :)
[04:33] <Abnix> ack! how do I find out which ubuntu version I'm on?
[04:34] <varsendaggr> http://www.aardvark.co.nz/pjet/gokart.htm
[04:34] <freakabcd> Abnix, cat /etc/lsb-release
[04:34] <iiiears> !glx
[04:34] <ubotu> iiiears: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:34] <Boelcke> If I add the hostnames and IP address to the hosts file, it won't help because occasionally, they get different DHCP assigned IPs...
[04:34] <RadiantFire> freakabcd: i don't have a mnitor lying around to test it on...
[04:34] <iiiears> !xgl
[04:34] <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

[04:34] <ubotu> nvidia is probably 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
[04:34] <RadiantFire> more academic curiosity sh ould the need ever arise
[04:34] <OniAnubis> how many computers do you have in your network?
[04:34] <gri6507> Boelcke: Thanks. I'll go there
[04:35] <HellDragon> anyone can give me the LOGS when i was talking with crim ???????????
[04:35] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, anyway. you've got the idea and a sample file now. i'm very happy with xinerama though, gives me more real estate
[04:35] <Hermitis> Ok, while installing BattleField2 it asks for Disc2 but Ubuntu won'
[04:35] <buggzero> who can help me sort out a Compiz/Xmodmap puzzle?
[04:35] <Hermitis> Ok, while installing BattleField2 it asks for Disc2 but Ubuntu won't eject the disc because its in use?
[04:35] <HellDragon> me want LOGS
[04:35] <OniAnubis> Does anyone know if the SPARC port supports FCAL devices?
[04:35] <MdSalih> I am trying to use samba to share a ubuntu folder with an xp machine over network... once i've right clicked the folder.. entered the shared settings... set it up... and then go to xp box... try browse to it... it asks for user/pass..
[04:35] <wenko> wtf....grep command not found ?!?!
[04:35] <iiiears> eject -f
[04:35] <HellDragon> logssssssssss
[04:35] <garryfre> IS there a  window open to the disk? if so it will think it's still in use.
[04:35] <MdSalih> i enter ubuntu user/pass ... it rejects it :(
[04:36] <HellDragon> loooooooooooooggggggggggggsssssssss :(
[04:36] <Hermitis> iiiears "device is busy"
[04:36] <Abnix> HellDragon: when was this?
[04:36] <SurfnKid> whats the rename command?
[04:36] <RizCk> im having problems with openGL in ubuntu 6.06 with XGL
[04:36] <HellDragon> soem mins ago
[04:36] <Boelcke> dooglus, thanks for the reference to ubuntuforums, I'm going to try that out now.  BRB.
[04:36] <freakabcd> SurfnKid, theres 'rename' and 'mv'
[04:36] <RizCk> anyone knows what could solve it .
[04:36] <HellDragon> when i was talking with crim
[04:36] <SurfnKid> freakabcd: ok thx
[04:36] <dooglus> Boelcke: I just tried it.  No reboot or anything is needed.
[04:37] <iiiears> Hermitis: !!!?
[04:37] <|rt|> hmm X is failing to start....with an nvidia error...apt-get install nvidia-glx says i'm up to date
[04:37] <|rt|> any ideas?
[04:37] <HellDragon> what about all the spam here ?
[04:37] <dooglus> Boelcke: I'm on a windows network - it worked for me, but that's probably because it's a windows network.  I don't know if your router will speak 'wins', but it's worth a try I guess
[04:37] <Hermitis> iiiears, i try eject -f and it says "Device busy umount failed"
[04:37] <iiiears> Hermitis: I don't have the answer. !!!?
[04:38] <freakabcd> iiiears, its a lame ass installer if its keeping disc1 busy and asking for disc2
[04:38] <HellDragon> nobody can give me a log file ?
[04:38] <Boelcke> dooglus, Windows has recently become less popular in this house, so I'm currently running two ubuntu boxes.  But this stuff worked fine with Windows before. I guess I'll need to install that on both of PCs.
[04:38] <dooglus> wenko: "ls -l /bin/grep" ?
[04:38] <freakabcd> HellDragon, what the heck you need the log file for?
[04:38] <HellDragon> i forgot the commands crim told me
[04:38] <freakabcd> for what?
[04:39] <garryfre> Try this ... sudo nvidia-glx-config enable and then close all apps, and do ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:39] <HellDragon> for everything
[04:39] <HellDragon> i need the logs
[04:39] <Abnix> dont worry, I jsut linked him a copy of my log
[04:39] <wenko> doog: yeah its there
[04:39] <freakabcd> huh? what the heck is everything?
[04:39] <wenko> it just wont open....hmm restart time
[04:39] <HellDragon> thnak you Abnix
[04:39] <freakabcd> wenko, then why did you say grep not found?
[04:39] <brimble> !
[04:39] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, brimble
[04:39] <wenko> because when i put in grep it didnt opn it said cmd not found
[04:39] <wenko> BUT its in the bin folder
[04:40] <freakabcd> wenko, maybe you're PATH var is screwed up
[04:40] <freakabcd> echo $PATH
[04:40] <dooglus> wenko: check your PATH
[04:40] <garryfre> Maybe what you are searching for was not found by grep.
[04:40] <wenko> wtf!!! PATH is just a :
[04:40] <dooglus> wenko: but then, if you can run "ls"...
[04:40] <wenko> ok...restart time
[04:40] <freakabcd> wenko, haha
[04:40] <dooglus> how can you run 'ls' then?
[04:40] <freakabcd> what do you mean restart?
[04:40] <wenko> i dont have a clue
[04:40] <wenko> someting is messed
[04:40] <dooglus> wenko: type "type ls"
[04:40] <polpak> wenko: you don't need to restart
[04:41] <wenko> irssi works, awk works....
[04:41] <wenko> cut works
[04:41] <wenko> ls works
[04:41] <wenko> OMFG grep is working now
[04:41] <wenko> what is going on
[04:41] <billybennett> anyone know about k9copy
[04:41] <garryfre> typeo
[04:41] <dooglus> wenko: different terminal windows?
[04:41] <freakabcd> wenko, no. youre PATH _is_ messed
[04:41] <wenko> nope
[04:41] <HellDragon> im so pissed off
[04:41] <wenko> yes path is still mesed
[04:41] <freakabcd> echo $PATH; ls
[04:41] <|rt|> i just let dapper update...it told me I needed to reboot, I'm assuming it updated the kernel.....and X won't start says Module nvidia not found but apt-get install nvidia-glx tells me that the newest version is already installed
[04:42] <|rt|> can anyone help me sort that out
[04:42] <CanadianSnow> hows the new version of ubuntu?
[04:42] <Hermitis> My cd-rom won't eject now so I can't put in Disc2, fun fun fun :)
[04:42] <reazon> #join ubuntu-fr
[04:42] <wenko> yeah they both worked
[04:42] <wenko> k imrestarting that box
[04:42] <freakabcd> |rt|, you'll have to rebuild the kernel module, or reinstall the nvidia-glx package iirc
[04:42] <dooglus> wenko: no need.  just ". /etc/environment"
[04:42] <CanadianSnow> whats ubuntu-fr?
[04:42] <polpak> |rt|: try removing it and reinstall
[04:42] <pschulz01> crimsun: Relating to previous vmware compile problem.. any ideas what has happened to the g++-3.4 package?
[04:42] <|rt|> modprobe nvidia couldn't find the module
[04:42] <Boelcke> Ooooooooo -- like butter! dooglus, you're my new personal hero.  Thanks to all for the help and discussion!
[04:42] <polpak> |rt|: by it I mean the nvidia module
[04:43] <ron_o> Hermitis, your cd-rom won't eject because it's still mounted. You must unmount it.
[04:43] <|rt|> freakabcd: how do you force it to reinstall with apt?
[04:43] <dooglus> Boelcke: what?  adding 'wins' to the list fixed it?
[04:43] <polpak> |rt|: just remove it first
[04:43] <Hermitis> ron_o, Umount failed, device is busy
[04:43] <dooglus> Boelcke: I wasn't holding out much hope that it would to be honest...
[04:43] <polpak> |rt|: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx
[04:43] <ron_o> Hermitis, it happened to me too, both in ubuntu, xubuntu and also in Windows. It's really a common problem.
[04:43] <|rt|> ok...why didn't this auto update properly with the kernel...is there a setting that I can set to prevent it from happening again?
[04:43] <garryfre> |rt|: I had same issue and fixed it by doing these instructions here in the following url but I know there is a better more up-to-date page. ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[04:43] <freakabcd> |rt|, err..
[04:44] <freakabcd> why the heck would he need to purge?
[04:44] <CanadianSnow> hows the new version of ubuntu?
[04:44] <Boelcke> dooglus, I added wins to one PC, and installed winbind, and suddenly I'm able to ping both PCs.  And mount them using the hostname, not the IP address.
[04:44] <ron_o> if you're in the directory then get out, otherwise find out why it's not unmounted. The quickest fix for now is to restart..
[04:44] <freakabcd> sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-glx
[04:44] <polpak> |rt|: I don't think it's a kernel issue
[04:44] <garryfre> congrats Boelcke
[04:44] <CanadianSnow> worth updating?
[04:44] <freakabcd> err.. iirc it _is_
[04:44] <Davo_Dinkum> canada: yep
[04:44] <buggzero> Okay I REALLY need some Xmodmap help, button combinations are doing wiered things
[04:44] <ron_o> but the issue isn't one of Dapper or Ubuntu. It's another issue all together.
[04:44] <Boelcke> dooglus, I think this actually solves two problems for me.  One, I can now put shares I want automatically mounted in my fstab.  Two, I think it helps solves a printsharing issue I'm still struggling with.
[04:44] <|rt|> polpak: yeah i'm sure it's just a matter of the modules not getting updated
[04:44] <panthar> I have a strange streaming issue - both XMMS and Rhythmbox will play local MP3 files fine, but freeze on at least half of the streams I try. Any ideas/links/etc?
[04:44] <freakabcd> cos the nvidia kernel module does _not_ exist yet for the new kernel he installed
[04:45] <wenko> wow.....path works now
[04:45] <freakabcd> hence X fails to load
[04:45] <AngryElf> i'm setting up lirc with mplayer and everything's good except 'config = exit' doesn't work correctly, it's in 'mplayer -input cmdlist, so i'm not sure what's wrong -- what's it suppose to be?
[04:45] <wenko> looks right
[04:45] <SeanTater> nekostar: why pcbsd?
[04:45] <|rt|> polpak: but under gentoo i just run module-rebuild
[04:45] <megasquid> i have both gcj and the sun version of java installed, how do i set the sun version as default?
[04:45] <Boelcke> garryfre, yeah, there's nothing like a point in the right direction!
[04:45] <|rt|> and it takes care of updating the modules after a kernel update
[04:45] <bigbadgoat> help with wireless on a laptop anyone?
[04:45] <polpak> |rt|: hrm.. I've never had a problem updating kernels w/ my ati driver
[04:45] <garryfre> say Boelcke Yep. :)
[04:45] <polpak> |rt|: But I suppose it's possible
[04:45] <freakabcd> polpak, does the ati driver have a kernel module as well?
[04:45] <nekostar> SeanTater, why not ;p ubuntu is my other boot
[04:46] <freakabcd> if not, then his problem is completely different
[04:46] <freakabcd> i.e. what i outlined earlier
[04:46] <Abnix> anyone have a preference for a works-out-of-the-box IMAP or POP3 server for outlook to play nice with?
[04:46] <garryfre> Bah, I'm too stupid to remember to put a / before say.
[04:46] <polpak> freakabcd: yes  fglrx
[04:46] <SeanTater> nekostar: personally I perfer the GPL licencing
[04:46] <|rt|> polpak: it's probably a setting that I need to set in synaptic
[04:47] <garryfre> mount /mnt/mybrain fsconfused .... Object not found.
[04:47] <VR_> is there a command that'll show me when my ip will expire?
[04:47] <Boelcke> Abnix, you're talking about connecting to an IMAP, or running the server?
[04:47] <freakabcd> garryfre, too bad, theres no brain ;)
[04:47] <niki> how do i change what a symbolic link points to?
[04:47] <polpak> niki: remove it, and make a new link
[04:47] <dooglus> Boelcke: I'm not sure what, if any, the security implications of running this winbind thing are.  NetBIOS has a reputation for being exploitable - and winbind is a netbios server?  maybe?
[04:47] <freakabcd> niki, man ln, check out the -f option
[04:47] <nekostar> SeanTater, honestly  its better than stealling windows so i dont pay attention as long as what i need is there.......... for the most paart.......... which only means ive not taken much of a stand yet
[04:48] <niki> polpak, what would be the command to create a symbolic link called 'libGL.so.1' that points to 'libGL.so.1.2' ?
[04:48] <garryfre> say freakabcd ### I got straw, a heart, but no brain sings the scarecrow.
[04:48] <|rt|> well uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work...i uninstalled and did an apt-get clean
[04:48] <|rt|> trying to reinstall now
[04:48] <freakabcd> heh garryfre
[04:48] <HellDragon> Q!$//"
[04:48] <Abnix> Boelcke: I'm very sorry, I didn't realize my question was...confusing...  Yes, I'd like to run a server, to which I can connect a windows machine running outlook...
[04:48] <polpak> niki: ln -s libGL.so.1.2 libGL.so.1
[04:48] <dooglus> niki: "ln -sf" - or "rm", then "ln"
[04:48] <Boelcke> dooglus, hm.  Um.
[04:49] <SeanTater> nekostar: the reason I prefer the GPL is because what is open will always be open and only open, BSD, not so much. But Open Source in general is still good, (and [most]  anything is better than windows)
[04:49] <niki> polpak, OMG thank you...i FINALLY fixed a problem i've been having ever since i upgraded to dapper :D:D:D
[04:49] <OniAnubis> can you set up a dhcp server and a dns server on the same box so that when a host gets its address from dhcp, the dns is updated as well?
[04:49] <freakabcd> what exactly is the motive for saying ... most anything ...
[04:50] <freakabcd> is that really proper usage?
[04:50] <freakabcd> just wondering
[04:50] <Boelcke> Abnix, I haven't any experience with that, then.  I've tried fastmail, a free IMAP email account provider (gotta pay for enough space) to solve some of my cross-platform, multi computer needs...
[04:50] <lightstar> OniAnubis, u can install both services on the same machine
[04:50] <nekostar> agreed compaired to windows..
[04:50] <polpak> niki: =)
[04:50] <Abnix> Boelcke: no worries, the kind folks in #gentoo pointed me towards qmail...
[04:50] <|rt|> hmm no dice.....even after an apt-get clean and reinstalling nvidia-glx and rebooting it's not finding the nvidia module
[04:51] <lightstar> OniAnubis, however what do u mean by dns update as well?
[04:51] <MakeGho> Anyone experienced with a problem like this: every other character in the screen suddenly started blinking about three minutes ago, and I can figure out no way to stop it?
[04:51] <freakabcd> Abnix, theres been wars fought over postfix and qmail ;p
[04:51] <garryfre> |rt|: The module version, must match the kernel version you are using. Could that be the issue?
[04:51] <alth> Hey guys, having a bit of an interesting problem here...my / partition has 1.9 gb of space on it, but my home partition is full. Is there any way I can use some of the space in my / to store files?
[04:52] <MakeGho> in all virtual terminals..
[04:52] <ubuntu_> Hi
[04:52] <OniAnubis> lets say my hostname is OniAnubis and my pc is set as a dhcp client. If my ip address changes, I want all the other computers in my network to know what the new address is without having to edit anything by hand
[04:52] <hybrid> .top
[04:52] <Abnix> freakabcd: yea, I know, I run postfix on my gentoo rig, but last time I ddid it, I recall setting up IMAP and full authentication was a bitch
[04:52] <ron_o> alth, yes..and no. You have to have permission to do so..
[04:52] <ron_o> alth, can
[04:52] <polpak> Abnix: I thought qmail was an SMTP server
[04:52] <polpak> |rt|: are you using the vesa driver now?
[04:52] <ubuntu_> Have anybody able to use compusa/PCMCIA wireless G card in ubuntu?
[04:52] <|rt|> garryfre: it could be the problem....how do i use apt-get to show the current version of nvidia-glx
[04:52] <ron_o> can't you expand your home directory via gparted?
[04:52] <|rt|> polpak: nope....i'm on a different machine
[04:52] <lightstar> OniAnubis, is there any reason you can't use static ip and let your local dns point to you?
[04:53] <ron_o> obviously don't do that w/o a backup.
[04:53] <|rt|> polpak: at the moment I just have console on my ubuntu machine
[04:53] <alth> ron_o: I'm dualbooting, don't really want to mess with my partitions.
[04:53] <andresxtremo> nn+
[04:53] <Yonda> I have Unreal Tournament 2004 on CD, and would like to install it...On the cd there is a linux-install.sh file, how can I run this?
[04:53] <dooglus> alth: you can use symlinks to make parts of / appear to be inside /home/<you>/
[04:53] <alth> Yonda: ./linux-install.sh?
[04:53] <ron_o> ahhh, but there should be no reason why you can't just create a folder in / and have access read & write to it.
[04:53] <lightstar> ron_o, only if /home is on a diff partition
[04:53] <garryfre> |rt| I am not sure.e have you tried activating the driver with the line in this url??   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[04:53] <freakabcd> Yonda, after you've mounted the cd just run it in the shell
[04:54] <polpak> OniAnubis: I assume you have a dhcp server running that's assigning the IP's you could either configure the interface statically, or you could tell the dhcp server to always assign you the same ip every time
[04:54] <Tonren> Hey guys, I have AMD64 Dapper on my laptop and I'm regretting it because I have to jump through fiery hoops to get Flash working in Firefox.  If I want to install 32 bit, do I have to reformat?
[04:54] <OniAnubis> I could use static, but I think it would be neat if I didn't have to use a static ip and the rest of the network computers just "know" what my ip always is  even if it changes
[04:54] <freakabcd> ./linux_install.sh   and if that doesn;t work because its not executable: sh linux_install.sh
[04:54] <spikeb> Tonren: unfortunately, yes.
[04:54] <polpak> OniAnubis: I prefer the latter, cause I don't have to change my network config when I go to a different network
[04:54] <dooglus> alth: "sudo mkdir /spare; sudo chown alth:alth /spare; ln -s /spare /home/spare" or some such
[04:54] <lightstar> OniAnubis, I presume you want to do sth similar to dyndns
[04:54] <Tonren> spikeb: Dammit... well, good thing I put /home on a separate partition
[04:54] <freakabcd> huh??
[04:55] <OniAnubis> I'm running ipcop as my firewall and its handing out ip addresses
[04:55] <Abnix> err, wtf...ubuntu doesn't have qmail as a package, but there's all kinds of support packages for qmail avail according to apt-cache search...
[04:55] <spikeb> Tonren: hehe
[04:55] <Tonren> spikeb: But it's going to be hell figuring out ndiswrapper all over again and stuff. I wish I had taken better notes!
[04:55] <freakabcd> Tonren, why don't you just run the 32-bit firefox?
[04:55] <spikeb> Tonren: i bet!
[04:55] <pdelgado> hello all
[04:55] <sam__> what package should i install if i want to compile some kernel modules? like the nvidia thing or vmware
[04:55] <spikeb> Tonren: always document the leaps you have to make, in the future
[04:55] <Tonren> freakabcd: How?
[04:55] <lightstar> OniAnubis, it would still require your machine to somehow pass the name to the server and you have to write a script to update the dns entry..just the top of my head
[04:55] <sam__> i need /usr/src/linux/include to exist for my current kernel version
[04:55] <freakabcd> Tonren, don't ask me. get the deb and install it. and hope you have the emul stuff for 32 bit
[04:55] <|rt|> garryfre: i'm giving that a try now
[04:55] <alth> dooglus: Thanks, but I think I solved my problem using a root -nautilus script and creating a folder writable by my normal user...just didn't think of doing that before is all ^^
[04:56] <|rt|> garryfre: rebooting now
[04:56] <Tonren> freakabcd: I don't know a thing about emulating a different architecture.
[04:56] <OniAnubis> all right I'll try looking for a script or something that does it
[04:56] <ron_o> Tonren, notes? not a chance! It really sucks doesn't it. :)
[04:56] <pdelgado> anyone please tell me how do i fix xchat in order to make it look the way it used to be a few years ago (tabs on top / channel list on right, lagometer, etc.. )  i just upgraded to 6.06....
[04:56] <freakabcd> Tonren, do a search for 'emu' in synaptic on name & description
[04:56] <Yonda> To type in ./linux-install.sh in need to CD to the correct directory right? But what do I cd to when its in a CD drive and isnt like /usr/home or something like that? Sorry for the newbish questions!
[04:56] <ryan> Noob question: Where can I find the graphics shown in the screen saver? Specifically, the tree.
[04:56] <pdelgado> (i just upgraded ubuntu to 6.06
[04:56] <Boelcke> .exit
[04:56] <Tonren> freakabcd: Thanks!
[04:56] <babo> I have ClientAliveInterval 12
[04:56] <babo> ClientAliveCountMax 300
[04:56] <babo>   in my /etc/ssh/sshd_config on my server, yet my ssh connection keeps timing out .. ?
[04:56] <sam__> ah
[04:56] <|rt|> garryfre: nope no dice
[04:56] <lightstar> pdelgado, errr...change it from preferences?
[04:56] <sam__> linux-headers-`uname -r`
[04:57] <freakabcd> you'll find some packages. if they are not installed install them and get the 32-bit forefox deb and install it. then everything is fine
[04:57] <lightstar> babo, when ppl try to connect to you or after they have logged into your machine?
[04:57] <pdelgado> lightstar: ... none of the options i need appear any more in the preferences....
[04:57] <garryfre> say |rt| You using dapper? Can you get X to work at all?
[04:57] <iamcitizen> freakabcd i edited the menu.lst, and now i see stuff on the screen, butit is just text, not the progress bar
[04:57] <polpak> pdelgado: are you sure you're using xchat and not xchat-gnome ?
[04:57] <ryan> where are the screensaver images stored?
[04:57] <polpak> pdelgado: they're very different
[04:58] <lightstar> pdelgado, i believe tab position can be set top or bottom
[04:58] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, could you paste your menu.lst to the pastesiter?
[04:58] <ron_o> yah, xchat is better. :p
[04:58] <pdelgado> polpak: ... ok.. this is xchat-gnome ...
[04:58] <freakabcd> xchat-gnome is teh crap
[04:58] <iamcitizen> uh, what's the pastesiter?
[04:58] <pdelgado> i guess what i need is old fashioned xchat...
[04:58] <babo> lightstar: after I have logged into the machine from my desktop ...
[04:58] <freakabcd> !paste
[04:58] <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.
[04:58] <garryfre> |rt| You using dapper? Can you get X to work at all?
[04:58] <ron_o> why gnome needs its own irc client...
[04:58] <|rt|> garryfre: yeah i'm using dapper...i just switched back to the nv driver and that works
[04:58] <polpak> pdelgado: if you want xchat you can get it from the universe repo I think
[04:58] <bigbadgoat> is that a channel?
[04:58] <polpak> !info xchat
[04:58] <ubotu> xchat: (IRC client for X similar to AmIRC), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 (dapper), Packaged size: 254 kB, Installed size: 720 kB
[04:58] <pdelgado> wtf... ok..
[04:58] <HellDragon> im really going nuts
[04:59] <ron_o> pdelgado, sudo apt-get install xchat will do it.
[04:59] <garryfre> |rt| Ok, no retry the instructions at this url https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[04:59] <xne0x> yyo
[04:59] <|rt|> garryfre: ok
[04:59] <freakabcd> HellDragon, given that you've rebooted many times ;)
[04:59] <ryan> screensaver images? where in the filesystem are they stored by default?
[04:59] <lightstar> babo, hmm...haven;t experienced that kind of problem..sorry
[04:59] <xne0x> what can i use to make soem folder into iso in ubuntu?
[04:59] <freakabcd> ryan, what screensaver images?
[04:59] <|rt|> garryfre: i had nvidia working fine until i let the systme update today
[04:59] <ron_o> xne0x, gnomebaker should do.
[04:59] <lightstar> xne0x, mkisofs
[04:59] <iamcitizen> freakabcd http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16043
[05:00] <ryan> the desktop background, some cool-looking tree...the ones you see when the slideshow screensaver runs.
[05:00] <Yonda> Ok now when I try linux-installer.sh I get 'permission denied', same when i try with sudo..
[05:00] <panthar> Does anyone have any experience fixing an XMMS/Rhythmbox problem of locking up when trying to play MP3 streams?  They can both play local MP3's on my machine but lock up when attempting to play most streams.
[05:00] <freakabcd> ryan, is that a tree image or something thats changing?
[05:00] <|rt|> synaptic is showing a new version of the driver to match the kernel update
[05:00] <pdelgado> oki dokie
[05:00] <dooglus> ryan: which screensaver?  xscreensaver, or gnome-screensaver?
[05:00] <freakabcd> i.e. is it a GL screensaver?
[05:00] <ryan> they are static images.
[05:00] <|rt|> going to install that now and it will probably sort out my issues i'm sure
[05:00] <babo> lightstar: np
[05:00] <xne0x> with gnomebacker how i make iso
[05:00] <ryan> it's a slideshow.
[05:00] <xne0x> i added files
[05:00] <lightstar> babo, :)
[05:00] <|rt|> but I would like to figure out why that didn't update with the kernel
[05:01] <freakabcd> ryan, umm.. would be nice if i knew what the name of the screensaver was
[05:01] <babo> Does anyone know why my ssh connection keeps timing out ... ?
[05:01] <ron_o> xne0x, isn't there a make iso in preferences?
[05:01] <ron_o> sorry, I'm on ubuntu.
[05:01] <ron_o> Xubuntu*
[05:01] <babo> ClientAliveInterval 12
[05:01] <babo>  ClientAliveCountMax 300
[05:01] <xne0x> i dont see
[05:01] <garryfre> |rt| Hmmm, this might fix it .... http://users.on.net/~goetz/EasyUbuntu/
[05:01] <reazon> Hey guys, when i log off from Gnome to go back in GDM, my computer totaly freeze, i need to reboot... anyone have an idea ?
[05:02] <XyMoX_18> ubuntu espaol
[05:02] <XyMoX_18> donde esta
[05:02] <XyMoX_18> cual es el canal
[05:02] <Hobbsee> !es
[05:02] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:02] <ron_o> xne0x, maybe there isn't one. I'm sorry. There isn't one in xfburn.
[05:02] <lightstar> babo, try setting the KeepAlive option in sshd_config and restart ssh
[05:03] <xne0x> i think there is
[05:03] <ron_o> I used to use k3b for that, but to install it might add a lot to your system.
[05:03] <xne0x> cuz i rem i did an iso
[05:03] <xne0x> with it
[05:03] <xne0x> but i did it off a cd
[05:03] <garryfre> |rt| Yeah, good question, it should have upgraded with the kernel.
[05:03] <ron_o> there really should be one..
[05:03] <ron_o> checkout the 'mkisofs' command that was mentioned earlier.
[05:03] <|rt|> garryfre: could it be b/c i didn't have universe and multiverse repositories enabled for updates?
[05:04] <jajaja-> can someone help me with the sql errors i am getting when i run mythfilldatabase
[05:04] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, did you see the link?
[05:04] <maikol> any good  torrent clients? like utorrent?
[05:04] <Yonda> When I try to run linux-installer.sh off a CD, I get permission denied, when I try to change the permissions I get an error that its read only...How can I modify the permissions to let it launch?
[05:04] <reazon> Hey guys, when i log off from Gnome to go back in GDM, my computer totaly freeze, i need to reboot... anyone have an idea
[05:04] <|rt|> garryfre: i just made that change in synaptic...hopefully that will prevent the problem from occuring with the next kernel update
[05:04] <garryfre> |rt| Its all in the restricted repositories.
[05:04] <babo> lightstar: ok thanks ... you mean the TCPKeepAlive yes ... ? ... I've just done that ... :-)
[05:05] <garryfre> |rt| Good luck, Here's hoping.
[05:05] <|rt|> well thanks for your help
[05:05] <lightstar> babo, hope that solves your problem..other options are setting your client to set no timeout..but i personally haven't tried it out though:)
[05:05] <|rt|> going to change my driver back, load the module, and try to restart X
[05:05] <xne0x> how can i make iso
[05:05] <babo> lightstar: ok, cool thanks ... time will see I guess :-)
[05:06] <garryfre> I'm going to stay and see if it works.
[05:06] <lightstar> babo, yeap:)..
[05:06] <xne0x> or not
[05:06] <xne0x> i got it
[05:06] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, err.. wheres the splash and quiet options ?
[05:06] <lightstar> babo, if all else fails you COULD look at the firewall config on both machines...see if they have some kinda timeout for connections..but i fail 2 c how tat gets set though
[05:07] <|rt|> garryfre: seems to be working now
[05:07] <|rt|> :)
[05:07] <babo> lightstar: ok thanks, never thought of that ...
[05:07] <babo> :-)
[05:07] <Sjoerd-> I found myself being two times in the userslist when typing users via cli, what can be the reason?
[05:07] <garryfre> |rt| Yay!
[05:07] <iamcitizen> i edited splash and quiet out
[05:07] <ryan> I found the pictures, in case anyone was wondering. /usr/share/backgrounds
[05:07] <iamcitizen> should i put splash back in?
[05:07] <lightstar> babo, ahh..i tot u already checked that issue out:)..well try it..it could solve ur issue..wild guesses..hehe
[05:08] <freakabcd> sjoerd, RyanTMulligan ok. i have no clue what they are doing there.
[05:08] <Yonda> When I try to run linux-installer.sh off a CD, I get permission denied, when I try to change the permissions I get an error that its read only...How can I modify the permissions to let it launch?
[05:08] <dooglus> is there any way I can check in my .bashrc whether the bash is running inside a chroot or not?
[05:08] <freakabcd> theres a few in /usr/share/pixmaps/backgrounds
[05:08] <dooglus> Yonda: if it's a shell script, just run "sh ./linux-installer.sh"
[05:08] <iiiears> Sjoerd - Same here. - can only guess that one user needs to run processes as root. devices and another for processes?
[05:08] <reazon>  when i log off from Gnome to go back in GDM, my computer totaly freeze, i need to reboot... anyone have an idea ?
[05:08] <|rt|> garryfre: so far i'm really digging ubuntu...i just need to get used to apt
[05:09] <lightstar> Yonda, u can't change perm of a cd..you can try copying it out or try "sh ./<scriptname>"
[05:09] <|rt|> garryfre: may be switching my 2 other gentoo boxes in the house over to it soon (one file server, and one mythtv box)
[05:09] <dope> i just updated from breezy to dapper now im X wont start up
[05:09] <dope> anyone can help?
[05:09] <Sjoerd-> iiiears: I don't know, it scared me a little. I used netstat but see no other connections then me.
[05:09] <|rt|> dope: i just ran into that myself
[05:09] <dope> |rt|: any luck fixing the problem
[05:09] <garryfre> |rt|:  Yeah, I mostly use the gui thing myself.
[05:10] <Yonda> Thanks dooglus! That worked...Now off to play Unreal Tournament - Thanks a bunch!
[05:10] <|rt|> dope: easiest way to fix this is sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change your display driver back to nv
[05:10] <Yonda> and thanks lightstar
[05:10] <ekp> hi
[05:10] <dooglus> Yonda: welcome
[05:10] <|rt|> then startx
[05:10] <lightstar> Yonda, np:)
[05:10] <xne0x> Incorrectly encoded string (Lame de Adobe Premiere Pro.html) encountered.
[05:10] <xne0x> Possibly creating an invalid Joliet extension. Aborting.
[05:10] <iiiears> |rt| - Does myhtv work as advertised?
[05:10] <xne0x> wats that mean
[05:10] <|rt|> once you're back in X use synaptic and search for nvidia....install the appropriate restricted driver for the 2.6.15-25 kernel
[05:10] <xenex> how do i fix my sound without restarting? the sound is going extra fast on everything. videos, music, whatever, its going 5x its normal speed.
[05:11] <NoUse> iiiears my *parents* use it :-)
[05:11] <dope> |rt|: im using intel 845g not nvidia
[05:11] <ekp> Using Gdesklets panel app has screwed up my workspace switcher in Gnome....Dapper Drake release.
[05:11] <|rt|> iiiears: i've been running it now for about a year on gentoo...works great...some things are a pain to set up like lircd
[05:11] <iiiears> |rt| - Anxious to try it with a 1.ghz nVidia 5200 - 750 mbs RAM
[05:11] <NoUse> knoppmyth makes it really easy
[05:11] <freakabcd> dope, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:11] <alth> I have some albums with folder sized album art, can I use this to make it the folder's icon? If so, how?
[05:11] <|rt|> iiiears: i have it on a amd 3700+ with 512mb
[05:12] <garryfre> I have seen some folks having issues with MythTv here last night. I'd back that gentoo puppy up just in case they mythtv don't work right.
[05:12] <|rt|> dope: hmm...not familiar with the video card...is the driver normally in the kernel package or do you have to install it seperately?
[05:12] <Sjoerd-> what ftp server would you guys advise for a webserver?
[05:12] <Abnix> Sjoerd-: pure-ftpd
[05:12] <freakabcd> |rt|, its oss driver
[05:13] <|rt|> garryfre: i have a spare 250gb hd...would probably try to get them running side by side first
[05:13] <Sjoerd-> thanks Abnix, any other comments?
[05:13] <Sjoerd-> or is that just -the way- to go :)
[05:13] <|rt|> freakabcd: ah
[05:13] <dope> |rt|: i believe the i810 driver is supposed to work
[05:13] <garryfre> |rt| yeah, good call.
[05:13] <|rt|> dope: what's the error that you're getting in X
[05:13] <dope> which is wuts being use now
[05:13] <iiiears> |rt| - Ah well, I think i saw a 2.8ghz  machine on outpost.com for $299 - got to have fast forwarding through repeated commercials.
[05:13] <freakabcd> dope, yes it is. and it _does_
[05:13] <dope> |rt|: no screens found
[05:13] <freakabcd> dope, did you try the reconfigure line i gave you?
[05:13] <|rt|> iiiears: well it has pretty good auto detection of commericials
[05:13] <Abnix> Sjoerd-: well I used to use proftpd, and it's pretty solid, but pure-ftpd seems to IMO perform better and is a bit more secure
[05:14] <dope> freak: going to now
[05:14] <|rt|> iiiears: auto skips them if you set the option to do so
[05:14] <Jinkguns> Gentlemen, first one to fix my wireless laptop, or help me to, gets to know that you helped a American trapped in Japan on a business trip with no wireless network.
[05:14] <Sjoerd-> Abnix: Thanks again, I will give it a try.
[05:14] <polpak> Abnix: there's also vsftpd
[05:14] <Sivik> how do i get sound in q2
[05:14] <ekp> garryfre: lost preferences or ability to save pref. in workspace switcher since using Gdesklets
[05:14] <polpak> !tell Jinkguns about wireless
[05:15] <ekp> Dapper Drake release

[05:15] <|rt|> iiiears: as an X Tivo user i have to say it's a handy feature
[05:15] <dope> freak: that didnt work
[05:15] <|rt|> iiiears: don't even have to touch the remote
[05:15] <Jinkguns> It was working yesterday, does that tell you anything?
[05:15] <|rt|> iiiears: anyhow this is getting offtopic from this channel
[05:15] <freakabcd> dope, so log says ... no screens found?
[05:15] <Sivik> i'm trying to get quake 2 to have sound
[05:15] <iiiears> |rt| - TIVO has been gutted of great features. MythTV is much better.
[05:15] <Davo_Dinkum> will "apt-get install mythtv" install mythtv on ubuntu?
[05:15] <dope> freak, yes
[05:16] <bur[n] er> Davo_Dinkum: if you have universe... try "apt-cache search myth tv"
[05:16] <ekp> !Gdesklets

[05:16] <freakabcd> dope, could you paste the log (and possibly xorg.conf) to pastesite?
[05:16] <Sivik> anyone here play quake 2
[05:16] <Jinkguns> Aha.
[05:16] <Jinkguns> They fixed it.
[05:16] <dope> freak, i've no idea how im going to do that from terminal mode
[05:17] <bur[n] er> dope: ssh from another machine?  use links?
[05:17] <dope> bur[n] er: ive only got 1 box

[05:18] <crimsun> pschulz01: what about g++-3.4? (It's still in main as of Dapper)
[05:19] <Yonda> Aaah! Back again....Unreal Tournament has 7 CDs for the Installation, and when the installer asks to insert disk 2, i cant eject disk one because the drive is busy :S
[05:19] <NoUse> dope you might have to chmod +x pastebin for that to work
[05:19] <iiiears> Yonda - Is it possible to copy all the files to a single directory on your HD?
[05:19] <dope> i did NoUse
[05:20] <dope> it gave me a website output
[05:20] <Yonda> yes, thats possible I guess, is that the normal procedure?
[05:20] <davidX> is there a terminal services(windows) client for gnome or kde?

[05:20] <untung> How to setup screen  resolution to 1280*768
[05:20] <Yonda> and can i delete the files after?

[05:20] <Jinkguns> I have about 200 2.3MB photos for this trip in Japan I
[05:20] <Jinkguns> 'm currently on, any idea on how to quickly convert them to a smaller size?
[05:21] <Jinkguns> A program?
[05:21] <dope> freak: http://en.pastebin.ca/67504
[05:21] <Yonda> ok so i put each cd in a seperate folder somewhere on my hard drive then run the installer?
[05:21] <XTORTION> Hi everyone
[05:21] <NoUse> dope can you do the same think for /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[05:21] <dope> NoUse: ok
[05:21] <XTORTION> Does any one know how to install raid with the live cd install?
[05:21] <lightstar> Yonda, you can type 'eject' on the command prompt to eject the cd inside and add a new 1 and try to continue
[05:22] <dope> NoUse: http://en.pastebin.ca/67508
[05:22] <mnvl> can someone suggest a way to delete all the files in one directory, which also appear in another directory?
[05:22] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, how should my menu.lst look?
[05:22] <NoUse> mnvl install fdupes
[05:22] <Yonda> lightstar, when i type eject i get a 'device is busy' error in the terminal
[05:22] <NoUse> mnvl it searchs for dupes and can be configed to prompt you to delete one of them
[05:22] <XTORTION> Does any one know how to install raid with the live cd install?
[05:23] <NoUse> XTORTION I don't believe thats possible
[05:23] <XTORTION> is there any other way
[05:23] <NoUse> XTORTION the alternate CD
[05:23] <XTORTION> i tryed to use old dapper cd but once i upgraded nothing worked
[05:23] <panthar> Does anyone have any experience fixing an XMMS/Rhythmbox problem of locking up when trying to play MP3 streams?  They can both play local MP3's on my machine but lock up when attempting to play most streams.
[05:23] <XTORTION> where can i get that iso?
[05:23] <JohnnyFive> So the nvidia driver doesnt work for the 7800GTX "Go" series anymore?  I've tried 3 distros to no avail seems it broke recently in the past 2 weeks or so
[05:24] <NoUse> XTORTION the normal download page
[05:24] <XTORTION> k ill look around
[05:24] <lightstar> Yonda, eh? funny.. "eject /dev/cdrom" assuming tats the device node doesnt work either?
[05:24] <brian|lfs> sup peeps
[05:24] <Sivik> how do i get sound in quake 2
[05:24] <XTORTION> thank you so much
[05:25] <iiiears> panther - two solutions i read about one involves mounting a remote directly locally using samba. the other is to compile xmms with a patch for long file path support.
[05:25] <Toma-> Sivik: is it saying /dev/dsp broken pipe?
[05:25] <buggzero> whats the best way to edit GTK+ themes
[05:25] <panthar> Samba?
[05:25] <Yonda> lightstar, nup that doesnt work
[05:25] <beasty> lol
[05:26] <beasty> need german! fast! pm me :p
[05:26] <LinuxNIT> NoUse, there is a normal install cd for the new release? i thought it only had install from the livecd
[05:26] <iiiears> panther - mounting a samba directory locally should be easier. mouint -t smb -o rw password="",username=""
[05:26] <panthar> The issue is with MP3 streams - not local files.
[05:26] <NoUse> LinuxNIT they have both
[05:26] <panthar> (local/mounted/etc)
[05:26] <NoUse> LinuxNIT they are both on the download page
[05:26] <MattSta> how can i install a printer from a cd on ubuntu
[05:26] <dope> NoUse: did you get the output?
[05:26] <Sivik> Toma-: no
[05:27] <Toma-> Sivik: well is there an error message at all when you run it from terminal?
[05:27] <argpirate> I just installed a bunch of games via add/remove software but it didnt add any menu entries for it...is there a special command to run or que?
[05:27] <LinuxNIT> NoUse, cool thanks last time i asked they said there was just the livecd
[05:27] <Toma-> pfft
[05:27] <NoUse> dope yeah, I think your refresh rates might not be right
[05:27] <lightstar> Yonda, try "sudo eject /dev/cdrom"
[05:27] <Abnix> argpirate: logout, log back in..
[05:27] <NoUse> dope are you usually any kind of special monitor?
[05:28] <dbcalo> is there a way to get all the packages needed to compile the kernel, quickly, short of downloading the dvd? the cd doesn't seem to have them on there.
[05:28] <dope> NoUse: when i was on winblows i believe the refresh rate was @ 60hz
[05:28] <nickrud> argpirate, you do killall gnome-panel, that usually works
[05:28] <argpirate> hrm ok,
[05:28] <dope> NoUse: no, its a normal monitor
[05:28] <argpirate> im actually using kde
[05:28] <Yonda> lightstar, same error when i try with sudo
[05:28] <argpirate> and i tried killing kicker
[05:28] <NoUse> dope, I should have said sync rates, they woudl be listed in your monitors doc
[05:28] <iiiears> Yonda - eject -f       may do it.
[05:28] <nickrud> aoh, kde.
[05:28] <dope> NoUse: i dont have the monitors docs
[05:28] <dope> maybe on the back
[05:28] <iiiears> Hi nickrud
[05:28] <argpirate> thanks for that ill try a reboot
[05:28] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, here is my current menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16046
[05:28] <argpirate> or a logout atleast
[05:29] <nickrud> hi iiiears . Busy tonight?
[05:29] <NoUse> dope run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and follow that through, let it try to detect any settings it can
[05:29] <dbcalo> my wireless doesn't work under linux which is why i need another way to get all the packages. in hopes that the newest kernel will solve my problems.
[05:29] <lightstar> Yonda, ???..ahh wait..i can guess y...the install.sh, tats the cause..silly me
[05:29] <Sivik> i need some sound help in quake 2
[05:29] <bur[n] er> dbcalo: what wireless card?
[05:29] <iiiears> Yes, A lot of questions. Glad you are here.
[05:29] <iiiears> Sivik - select OSS.
[05:29] <nickrud> you'll also be glad I'm gone when it comes ;)
[05:30] <dope> NoUse: with the ' around the command?
[05:30] <dbcalo> wusb54gsv2, the newest kernel is supposed to have added support for broadcom 43xx chips. which it has.
[05:30] <NoUse> dope no
[05:30] <dope> ok
[05:30] <Sivik> iiiears: ?
[05:30] <Sivik> iiiears: select OSS where?
[05:30] <JohnnyFive>  does anyone know how to get a 7800gtx  "go"to work in linux mine jsut one day stopped working after a new nvidia driver came out?
[05:30] <freakabcd> sorry, was out for a bit
[05:30] <Yonda> lightstar, so how could I fix the problem (eject -f) didnt work..
[05:30] <thomasM> hey guys, is there anyway to make root programs not look ugly running XGL? I had linked ~.themes and ~.icons to /root, which worked fine before XGL.
[05:30] <iiiears> Open source sound driver.  arts/esd don't work as well
[05:30] <JohnnyFive> any help would be appreciated :)
[05:30] <argpirate> Ubuntu will not have the newest kernel for a long time will it/
[05:30] <Sivik> ok
[05:30] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, looks good. still no progress bar?
[05:31] <nickrud> JohnnyFive, you mean the driver in the new kernel for dapper?
[05:31] <Desh> Hi, anyone know how I can check my PC's FSB (Front Bus Speed)
[05:31] <Smeggy> hi can someone take a look at a weird problem of mine?
[05:31] <lightstar> Yonda, at the moment you're pretty much stuck...u gotta kill the process, copy the .sh file somewhere else, edit it to point to the game files and try again
[05:31] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, well it used to work, not sure what happened but ive tried 3 distros and none work anymore with the card
[05:31] <thomasM> argpirate, look up a guide to make your own kernel man :D
[05:31] <lightstar> Yonda, :)
[05:31] <Smeggy> http://www.tbmn.net/wtfgnome.jpg <- the keyboard shortcut labels in my menus have turned like this
[05:31] <dbcalo> i found package.ubuntu.com but that is slow and tedious in terms of getting what i need.
[05:32] <Sivik> iiiears, how do i get it from apt-get?
[05:32] <argpirate> oh, no im not going to build a kernel, i was just wondering as someone said the new kernel supports more wifi
[05:32] <Yonda> lightstar, ahhh...I see, I'll try that
[05:32] <Sivik> !oss
[05:32] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Sivik
[05:32] <lightstar> Yonda, hope it works 4 u:)
[05:32] <JohnnyFive> !wiki oss
[05:33] <Sivik> JohnnyFive, do you know what i'm looking
[05:33] <JohnnyFive> ya
[05:33] <Yonda> lightstar, thanks for the help ill give it a shot :| who'd think it'd be so complicated to install a game eh
[05:33] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
[05:33] <freakabcd> iamcitizen, try doing that too
[05:33] <Sivik> JohnnyFive, trying to found the driver to install
[05:33] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, any ideas?
[05:33] <dope> NoUse: i get the same error  its also saying '(ee) I810: No Video Bios modes for chosen depths
[05:33] <freakabcd> then give it a restart to check if everything works as expected
[05:33] <NoUse> dope what kind of computer is this?
[05:33] <lightstar> Yonda, np...i haven;t tried installing a game (ever since quake3)..hehe
[05:34] <dope> NoUse: IBM NetVista
[05:34] <freakabcd> dope, what resolution?
[05:34] <cappicrd8> not sure
[05:34] <lightstar> Yonda, or maybe there are other ways to do it..i just haven;t figured out how 2 do it
[05:34] <nickrud> JohnnyFive, looking for bug reports. I need a new card, I wanna know ;)
[05:34] <freakabcd> dope did you paste your xorg.conf to the pastesite?
[05:34] <acke> hey
[05:34] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, it only happens on the "go" series
[05:34] <dope> yes freak
[05:34] <whyami> what is the equivalent for "gnome-open" when in the konsole for kde in kubuntu?
[05:34] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, i noticed other people have the same prob
[05:34] <freakabcd> dope, mind giving me the link?
[05:34] <dope> http://en.pastebin.ca/67504
[05:34] <nickrud> JohnnyFive, then it's probably reported somewhere
[05:34] <dope> NoUse: http://en.pastebin.ca/67508
[05:35] <dbcalo> is there a reason the necessary packages to compile aren't provided on the cd?
[05:35] <Smeggy> Anyone have a suggestion? http://www.tbmn.net/wtfgnome.jpg <- weird problem with the keyboard shortcuts in menus?
[05:35] <acke> anyonenows how to quit irrc if you are in the terminal?? im freaking trapped.....
[05:35] <dope> im trying to get 1024x768 all i can ever get is 640x480
[05:35] <ElBarono> why did my screensaver stop locking when I close my laptop lid?
[05:35] <davidX> wc
[05:35] <freakabcd> Smeggy, looks like a gnome thing and #gnome is more likely(in theory) to answer correctly
[05:35] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, ya it is, no fixes, and on nvidias site it shows a seperate driver (windows only) for that card, but if you look under the supported cards of the normal driver, its listed as working, it makes no sense
[05:35] <dooglus> Yonda: do you know the old 'stick something pointy in the eject hole' trick for ejecting CDs?
[05:36] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, ive tried pre packaged drivers and doing it from source
[05:36] <jighead> dbcalo, size mainly, to get everythingon one CD is tough, so that's why there's a build-essential virtual package to make it easy to grab everything
[05:36] <thomasM> dope
[05:36] <thomasM> !res
[05:36] <ubotu> rumour has it, res is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:36] <dope> ??
[05:36] <thomasM> go there.
[05:36] <acke> end
[05:36] <nickrud> JohnnyFive, docs are not the territory :) but you probably can find some dialog about it on the xorg mail lists.

[05:37] <freakabcd> eclypse, install openssl-dev
[05:38] <dope> freak: http://en.pastebin.ca/67514
[05:38] <dbcalo> jighead, i cant do that since my wireless doesn't fucntion under linux yet. the new kernel should solve this, which is why i need build-essentials.
[05:38] <dooglus> kditty: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:38] <eclypse>  k
[05:38] <RadiantFire> lol
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> jighead: Ah, that's the one.  Was looking in /proc/acpi/processor
[05:38] <kditty> thanks dooglus
[05:38] <NoUse> kditty use aptitude install
[05:38] <JohnnyFive> nickrud, nope nothing about it
[05:38] <NoUse> kditty sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[05:38] <JohnnyFive> :(
[05:38] <kazuki> Does Ubuntu support JFS File system ?????
[05:38] <NoUse> kditty it will allow you to easily uninstall if you chose to
[05:38] <acke> kditty sudo apt-get install kdebase
[05:38] <dooglus> NoUse: I think he meant to ask for the apt-get command
[05:38] <acke> qq
[05:38] <NoUse> dooglus aptitude > apt-get
[05:39] <dooglus> NoUse: no, aptitude <> apt-get
[05:39] <Yonda> dooglus ah yes, that old method ill give it a shot..
[05:39] <kditty> last time i installed it with apt-get
[05:39] <NoUse> dooglus wrong, aptitude does reverse deps
[05:39] <shad0w1e> does anyone know why from a 266gb ext3 partition, I only get 253gb, and what to do about it?
[05:39] <dooglus> NoUse: what does that mean?
[05:39] <NoUse> kditty you can use either, aptitude will just allow you to uninstall much easiler if you chose do
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus when you apt-get install kubuntu, how do you remove it? apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop won't work
[05:40] <dbcalo> shad0w1e, ext4 reserves some space.
[05:40] <shad0w1e> dbcalo, can it mount as ext2?
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus if you use aptitude, remove kubuntu-desktop will remove all packages that it pulled in that are no longer used
[05:40] <dooglus> NoUse: apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop has never failed for me
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus it doesn't remove all the packages that kubuntu-desktop pulle din
[05:40] <oddzball> Hey I have a question...
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus so you still have 200MB of stuff
[05:40] <dooglus> NoUse: no, it's not supposed to
[05:40] <dope> reak: did u get the xorg.conf paste
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus aptitude will
[05:40] <NoUse> dooglus intelligently
[05:41] <dooglus> NoUse: even if I don't want it to?
[05:41] <arm73c05> would anyone be so kind as to lend me their xorg.conf for a 1680x1050 display?
[05:41] <eclypse> hey all, when I run fglrxinfo I get the following error...  Error: unable to open display :0
[05:41] <eclypse> any ideas?
[05:41] <Mixx`> i've upgraded with this week's patches and both have had problems, the latest won't start X.  is there something I need to do to fix X?
[05:41] <NoUse> dooglus it will only remove packages that are not being used
[05:41] <dbcalo> shad0w1e, don't think you can do that. you would probably have to redo it.
[05:41] <enigmus> is anyone experiencing problem with libglib2.0-0 ?
[05:41] <dooglus> NoUse: what if I was only removing kubuntu-desktop so I could later remove kate, for instance?
[05:41] <shad0w1e> dbcalo, because ext3 is backwards compatible...
[05:41] <RadiantFire> dope: what videocard?
[05:41] <dbcalo> shad0w1e, may be able to convert to ext2. don't know. but ext2 will use reserve some space too.
[05:41] <MattSta> How do install a printer from a CD on UBUNTU
[05:41] <dope> RadiantFire: intel 845g
[05:41] <NoUse> dooglus you can just remove kate and kubuntu-desktop will get removed automatically
[05:41] <Yonda> In a totally unrelated matter, can you install ubuntu without going through the live cd....when I try installing it on a ye olde computer, it freezes up when it gets to the graphical interface...
[05:41] <RadiantFire> dope: try install 915resolution
[05:41] <NoUse> dooglus no need for two steps
[05:41] <dbcalo> shad0w1e, ext3 is a journaling system, so it needs some space to store all the info it takes care of.
[05:42] <RadiantFire> it is a bios fix for some intel cards
[05:42] <enigmus> the latest update of libglib2.0-0 in 6.06 has only 3 files in it, and lacks various .so...
[05:42] <dope> RadiantFire: ok
[05:42] <shad0w1e> dbcalo, given, but...
[05:42] <lightstar> Yonda, you can get alternate..it offers text mode install
[05:42] <dbcalo> shad0w1e, ntfs does something similar too.
[05:42] <shad0w1e> 13gb for 300gb!? yikes!
[05:42] <dooglus> NoUse: and then, later when I decide I don't want any of that KDE crap, what do I do to remove it all?
[05:42] <eclypse> any ideas?
[05:42] <shad0w1e> yeah thats why fat32 teh roxorz!
[05:42] <dope> RadiantFire: i get an error
[05:42] <Desh> How can i check my PC's FSB?
[05:42] <eclypse> hey all, when I run fglrxinfo I get the following error...  Error: unable to open display :0
[05:42] <RadiantFire> dope: what did it say?
[05:42] <Yonda> lightstar, is that a different file to download?
[05:42] <Hawke_> Hey all.
[05:43] <NoUse> dooglus if you installed using aptitude 'sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop' will remove all deps that kubuntu-desktop pulled in
[05:43] <lightstar> Yonda, yup..another iso
[05:43] <dope> RadiantFire: install: missing file operand
[05:43] <dooglus> NoUse: kubuntu-desktop isn't installed.  it was automatically removed when I removed kate.
[05:43] <shad0w1e> dbcalo, I just tried on reiserfs and I have all my space!!
[05:43] <RadiantFire> dope: really?
[05:43] <NoUse> dooglus sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop && sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop
[05:43] <dope> RadiantFire: yes
[05:43] <lightstar> shad0w1e, there will always be space allocated for system information..
[05:43] <Hawke_> I'm having trouble pulling an IP from my router. Is there anything I should be doing after install?
[05:43] <Yonda> lightstar, this the one? ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso
[05:43] <RadiantFire> dope: sudo apt-get install 915resolution gave you that?
[05:43] <NoUse> dooglus their might be an easier way but that will work
[05:43] <shad0w1e> well it seems like less
[05:44] <lightstar> Yonda, yeap..tats the 1
[05:44] <dooglus> NoUse: yuck.  sounds like a nasty solution to me.  I have to re-install all the stuff I didn't like in KDE just so I can remove the rest?
[05:44] <dope> RadiantFire: No install 915resolution did.. but apt-get install 915resolution package doesnt exist
[05:44] <Yonda> lightstar, thanks ill give that a shot
[05:44] <lightstar> Yonda, np
[05:44] <dooglus> NoUse: I think I'll stick with apt-get and debfoster.  Much more flexible.
[05:44] <NoUse> and whats the solution on apt-get?
[05:44] <dope> RadiantFire: i tried apt-get install 915resolution and it couldnt find package
[05:44] <freakabcd> dope, its in universe
[05:44] <iamcitizen> freakabcd, i get this error There is only 1 program which provides usplash-artwork.so
[05:44] <iamcitizen> (/usr/lib/usplash/usplash-default.so). Nothing to configure.
[05:44] <NoUse> ugh debfoster, shoot me now
[05:44] <nickrud> dooglus, remove libqt3-mt, that's simplest
[05:45] <lightstar> dooglus, err..you could just install the specific app and all appropriate libs will be installed..you dun need to install kubuntu-desktop just to get a few apps
[05:45] <dope> freakabcd: im not sure what you mean
[05:45] <dooglus> lightstar: I think you've misunderstood.
[05:45] <nickrud> dooglus, and you can mark packages you want persistent very easily with aptitude, like deb-foster
[05:45] <karthikeyan> Hi guys
[05:45] <eclypse> hey all, when I run fglrxinfo I get the following error...  Error: unable to open display :0
[05:45] <Oddzball> Is anyone here willing to help me, I need a detialed explination of how to install the ATI Linux Driers
[05:45] <karthikeyan> is there any way i can write to NTFS
[05:45] <Hawke_> I'm having trouble pulling an IP from my router. Is there anything I should be doing after install?
[05:45] <RadiantFire> dope: oh, it might be in universe
[05:45] <freakabcd> dope, the universe repository might be disabled at present in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:45] <lightstar> dooglus, maybe..didn't see your earlier posts:)
[05:46] <freakabcd> RadiantFire, it _is_ :)
[05:46] <Sjoerd-> Abnix? Can I ask you a few questions?
[05:46] <NoUse> lightstar I was telling him aptitude is nice for reverse deps, he didn't seem to believe me ;-)
[05:46] <dope> freakabcd: ok ill see if i can edit it
[05:46] <dbcalo> karthikeyan, theres an ntfs driver you can use. not 100% though...
[05:46] <lightstar> NoUse, Ohhhhh...hahaha
[05:46] <karthikeyan> Oh .. How do i Install .. Dbcalo
[05:47] <dooglus> NoUse: from what I've seen of aptitude, the only benefit over apt-get + debfoster is the minesweeper game
[05:47] <dope> freakabcd: ah, i have to uncomment it
[05:47] <dbcalo> karthikeyan, best bet for me was to use ext2, or ext3 which windows can easily read with a driver.
[05:47] <freakabcd> yes
[05:47] <RadiantFire> yep, then run apt-get update
[05:47] <dope> so now i run apt-get update?
[05:47] <lightstar> NoUse, its WAYY easier..just like synaptic..at least 4 me..hehehe
[05:47] <RadiantFire> dope: correct
[05:47] <dope> ok
[05:48] <NoUse> dooglus don't use the GUI, just use the command line
[05:48] <dope> its updating
[05:48] <NoUse> dooglus use whatever you want, I don't get a comsission
[05:48] <dope> done
[05:48] <NoUse> dooglus just trying to save you some time
[05:48] <dope> now apt-get install 915resolution
[05:48] <karthikeyan> dbcalo , I wanna write to NTFS from Linux and I have ext3 part
[05:48] <dope> ?
[05:48] <freakabcd> dope suod apt-get install 915resolution
[05:48] <Hawke_> I'm having trouble pulling an IP from my router. Is there anything I should be doing after install? I can't connect to the internet.
[05:48] <j1p> has anyone successfully installed E17 on Dapper?
[05:48] <dope> freakabcd: ok
[05:49] <freakabcd> j1p, i've been using e17 since ages
[05:49] <NoUse> karthikeyan you can't write to ntfs safely
[05:49] <dope> freakabcd: couldnt find package
[05:49] <j1p> freakabcd, how do you install it on dapper?
[05:49] <dbcalo> karthikeyan, try this, but don't say i didn't warn you if your data goes corrupt. http://www.linux-ntfs.org/
[05:49] <freakabcd> on dapper flights and now on dapper final. but ofcourse everything compiled from cvs and updated often
[05:49] <Dial_tone> Hawke_: make sure your network card is even coming up
[05:49] <karthikeyan> Oh !
[05:49] <j1p> i tried using the easy_e17 script on the forums, but it wont work for me
[05:49] <j1p> some problem with evas or ecore or something
[05:49] <karthikeyan> Why is traceroute command not working in ubuntu
[05:50] <j1p> should I just go straight to CVS and do it by hand?
[05:50] <Hawke_> Dial_tone: It says eth0 is activated
[05:50] <freakabcd> dope, do you have this line: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[05:50] <freakabcd> in your sources.list?
[05:50] <dope> freakabcd: yes
[05:50] <dope> freakabcd: should i uncomment all of the lines?
[05:51] <RadiantFire> dope: probably
[05:51] <dope> RadiantFire: ok
[05:51] <karthikeyan> Can any one say how to export path using .bash_profile .. I tried and no use .. I am not able to export path
[05:51] <dope> freakabcd:  i actualy dont have that line
[05:51] <karthikeyan> I want to export JRE_HOME
[05:52] <freakabcd> dope, paste your sources.list
[05:52] <dope> ok
[05:52] <freakabcd> thats the easiest way to not mess up things.
[05:52] <nothingman> hi, all
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > hmm
[05:53] <Oddzball> how do i change my resolution in Ubuntu?
[05:53] <IcemanV9> karthikeyan: it is not installed by default (traceroute)
[05:53] <dope> freakabcd: http://en.pastebin.ca/67519
[05:54] <IcemanV9> !tell Oddzball about resolution
[05:54] <tonyyarusso> Is there an Ubuntu Wiki search engine that I can add to my Firefox search bar?
[05:55] <Hawke_> Where can I find network card drivers for Ubuntu? Compaq doesn't have a Linux version for my Presario
[05:55] <dooglus> karthikeyan: .bash_profile is only sourced by login shells.  you're probably not running a login shell
[05:55] <dooglus> karthikeyan: export variables in ~/.xprofile
[05:55] <fooman> i have a nautilus question
[05:56] <karthikeyan> Oh .. I am using bash .. Whats a login shell .. Dooglus
[05:56] <karthikeyan> oh ok
[05:56] <nickrud> dooglus, is that xprofile something new?
[05:56] <dooglus> nickrud: I don't know
[05:56] <nickrud> dooglus, new to me, sounds useful
[05:56] <andre_> anyone successfully gotten ruby on rails working with ubuntu?
[05:57] <dooglus> nickrud: I was looking for a way to set environment variables and eventually stumbled upon ~/.xprofile
[05:57] <nickrud> dooglus, it works for gnome as well?
[05:57] <karthikeyan> hi should we creat a thing called .xprofile
[05:57] <dooglus> nickrud: you can't use .bash_profile, 'cos it's not sourced; .bashrc is only sourced when you run a terminal; .gnomerc is only sourced if you use GNOME (I use XFCE)
[05:57] <dooglus> karthikeyan: yes, ~/.xprofile
[05:57] <dooglus> karthikeyan: ie. in your home directory
[05:57] <nickrud> dooglus, I know that part, that's why xprofile sounds so very useful
[05:58] <karthikeyan> so what should i type in ?
[05:58] <dooglus> nickrud: .profile will work too, but that can also be sourced by login shells in some circumstances
[05:58] <dope> freakabcd: did you get the paste?
[05:58] <freakabcd> dope, comment out 19,20,29,30,35,36,38 and add universe multiverse to the end of line 4
[05:58] <dooglus> karthikeyan: type "echo export JRE_HOME=/usr/sun/whatever > ~/.xprofile"
[05:58] <dope> freakabcd: ok
[05:59] <nickrud> I did the 'put the variable in each of the 4 files, and try stuff' method of learning that. The designer was mad.
[05:59] <shad0w1e> hmmm. reiserfs takes forever to mount...
[05:59] <poptones> hey... i have encountered a charset bug in firefox when using 8859-2 charset... anyone else have problems with crashing?
[05:59] <shad0w1e> whats a good filesystem for a 300gb storage partition?
[05:59] <gomek> what size are the files you'll be storing?
[05:59] <NoUse> shad0w1e ext3 probably
[06:00] <shad0w1e> mostly 5-50mb
[06:00] <gomek> ext3 or xfs, i'd say
[06:00] <shad0w1e> a coupla 700mb ones
[06:00] <shad0w1e> maybe some 4gb ones
[06:00] <dooglus> nickrud: read /etc/gdm/Xsession for details of how .profile and .xprofile are used
[06:00] <shad0w1e> but mostly... as I said
[06:00] <dope> freakabcd: done, now do i run apt-get?
[06:00] <karthikeyan> i typed it
[06:00] <nickrud> dooglus, thanks for the pointer
[06:00] <Yonda> Is it possible to get the Ubuntu Server alternative edition? Does the server thing run from a live cd or not?
[06:00] <shad0w1e> the problem with ext3 is it eats 13gb just from being set up!
[06:00] <maikol> how do i get sound in mplayer
[06:01] <karthikeyan> should i source .xprofile
[06:01] <freakabcd> dope, actually add universe multiverse to end of line 9 as well
[06:01] <dope> freakabcd: ok
[06:01] <freakabcd> then apt-get update; apt-get install 915 resolution
[06:01] <Sjoerd-> where does ubuntu install a program like pure-ftpd?
[06:01] <dope> freakabcd: ok done, now run apt-get install 915resolution
[06:01] <dope> ?
[06:02] <Yonda> lightstar,  Is it possible to get the Ubuntu Server alternative edition? Does the server thing run from a live cd or not?
[06:02] <freakabcd> dope, yeah
[06:02] <crimsun> there's no "alternate" download for the server.
[06:02] <coldasfire06> hey, this might sound stupid, but i'm really new to programming and i'm trying to learn but when I compile with gcc instead of creating the executable file with the actual source code name it creates a file a.out, how do i make it create the file with the name i want, for example, gcc program.c (then what command)???
[06:02] <Luke> does anyone know how to put pictures on an ipod nano without linux?
[06:02] <dooglus> karthikeyan: you should log in again really
[06:02] <lightstar> Yonda, server doesn;t include the X stuff and what not..so u will end up downloading it again
[06:02] <dope> freakabcd: same thing, ergh
[06:03] <dooglus> karthikeyan: not reboot, just log out and back in to GNOME
[06:03] <crimsun> coldasfire06: -c
[06:03] <lightstar> coldasfire06, gcc file.c -o file
[06:03] <crimsun> coldasfire06: man gcc
[06:03] <coldasfire06> thabks
[06:03] <Yonda> lightstar, ok thanks
[06:03] <lightstar> Yonda, np
[06:03] <Yonda> lightstar, its for a file server for a small network you see, im not sure whether to go server or just normal ....
[06:03] <Sjoerd-> where does ubuntu put the installation files from .deb packages?
[06:04] <linuxk> good question
[06:04] <lightstar> Yonda, oh in that case you don't need gui...the server edition will do
[06:04] <karthikeyan> in /opt
[06:04] <lightstar> Yonda, unless you want to use it as a workstation as well
[06:04] <Sjoerd-> that map looks empty at my server
[06:04] <linuxk> what about the programs that just have a folder lightstar???
[06:05] <Yonda> lightstar, ok thanks again!
[06:05] <linuxk> where do i put those
[06:05] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, the installation scripts go into /var/lib/dpkg/info , and the actual files goo all over the place under /usr , mostly
[06:05] <lightstar> Yonda, np:)
[06:05] <lightstar> linuxboy, i beg your pardon?..
[06:05] <lightstar> linuxk, i beg your pardon
[06:05] <Oddzball> Hello!
[06:05] <karthikeyan> nickrud isnt the files installed in /opt
[06:05] <Sjoerd-> nickrud: I'm looking for the files from pure-ftpd. Found some under /etc/pureftpd/ but it doesn't seem to be complete.
[06:05] <freakabcd> dope, somehow it feels like the problem isn't what we are trying to solve. cos the 1024x768 32 bits per pixel exists as mode 54
[06:05] <poptones> hello?
[06:05] <linuxk> when i downloaded sunbird (of mozilla) its just a .targz with a folder in it. the folder has the .exe in it no install file
[06:05] <nickrud> karthikeyan, no, that's for the system admin
[06:05] <Oddzball> Can someone please explain how to install the ATI Linux Drivers?
[06:06] <linuxk> i just made an app folder in my home dir
[06:06] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, dpkg -L pure-ftpd  | less
[06:06] <Sjoerd-> what does that do?
[06:06] <lightstar> linuxk, did you dl the linux version?..what is sunbird btw?
[06:06] <dope> freakabcd: so what could possibly fix this?
[06:06] <shadeofgrey> hey lkistenn up everybody
[06:07] <shadeofgrey> has anybody here downloaded and installed flock successfully????
[06:07] <freakabcd> dope, wait. i'll let you install 915resolution first
[06:07] <disinterested> im trying to install ov51x-jpeg-0.5.3.tar.gz with no luck any one know how ?
[06:07] <linuxk> lightstar: its installed and working. mozilla programs just have a .tar.gz with a folder in it. in the folder is the whole app
[06:07] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, it lists the files in the package, and sends it to less so it doesn't all scroll off the screen
[06:07] <dope> freakabcd: it still says cannot find package
[06:07] <linuxk> i was going to put it in opt
[06:07] <dope> freakabcd: i cant install 915resolution
[06:07] <lightstar> linuxk, and your question is?
[06:07] <linuxk> but i just left it in home/apps/
[06:07] <linuxk> is that acceptable or no?
[06:07] <freakabcd> oh no you can: wget http://ftp.cs.umn.edu/pub/ubuntu/pool/universe/9/915resolution/915resolution_0.5-1ubuntu6_i386.deb
[06:08] <dope> alriht
[06:08] <nickrud> linuxk, sure, /opt is for everyone on the machine, home is for just one user
[06:08] <lightstar> linuxk actually yes...you can keep it wherever you want but its best to put it somewhere you can monitor easily
[06:08] <linuxk> well its only me
[06:08] <molinero> !edgy
[06:08] <ubotu> I heard edgy is Ubuntu 6.10 DEVELOPMENT, the "Edgy Eft" release. Discussions about and support for edgy take place in #ubuntu+1
[06:08] <linuxk> so im not too worried
[06:08] <lightstar> linuxk, and home is not a good place../opt or /usr/local would be better
[06:08] <linuxk> ok thnx guys
[06:08] <Sjoerd-> nickrud: Nothing is running off the screen, there are only like 4 files.
[06:09] <ghozt> how do you install and use gtk themes?
[06:09] <shad0w1e> hmm how does JFS compare to XFS?
[06:09] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, then the rest of the files are in the packages that were installed along with pure-ftp. Probably those 4 lines say what packages
[06:10] <linuxk> lightstar: i cant paste into opt\
[06:10] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, can that last. 4 lines, there should be more
[06:10] <Sjoerd-> nickrud: I'm trying to follow the guideliness from the pureftpd documentation. They are talking about files under: /user/local/sbin/pure-ftpd
[06:10] <dooglus> linuxk: it's fine in /home - if it's only you using it, then why not?
[06:10] <Dralid> Please help: I'm using Azureus and the torrents will run fine for one minute than drop to 0 bytes/sec for fifteen minutes and repeat. I've applied the CVS switch-out to get Azureus to work.
[06:10] <dope> freakabcd: im getting a 404 not found dude
[06:10] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, take a look at /usr/share/doc/pure-ftpd , that's one of the more important places files from a package go.
[06:10] <lightstar> linuxk, sudo mv /home/app /opt/
[06:10] <Cntryboy> I need help configuring the original unreal tournament to where it's not so dang choppy, I can choose 1024x768, and let me choose 16bit..
[06:10] <linuxk> ah thnx
[06:11] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, probably more relevant info there
[06:11] <shad0w1e> Cntryboy, are you sure 3d acceleration is on?
[06:11] <coldasfire06> does anybody here knows of a cool dock for enlightenment?
[06:11] <Sjoerd-> nickrud: It doesn't seem listed under share either
[06:11] <buggzero> where do I pick my GTK+ theme
[06:11] <Cntryboy> well as far as being loaded by unreal tournament no. As far as knowing that nvidia drivers are installed yes..
[06:11] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, share/doc . You want installation docs, right? Thats the place to look
[06:12] <freakabcd> dope, grrr.. damn mirrors.. wget http://itanix.rutgers.edu/ubuntu/pool/universe/9/915resolution/915resolution_0.5-1ubuntu6_i386.deb
[06:12] <freakabcd> dope, this one works for sure cos i just downloaded it :)
[06:12] <Cntryboy> Ive been trying to figure this out for days.. and I'm getting no where
[06:12] <dope> freakabcd: k
[06:12] <linuxk> you guys are the bomb
[06:13] <Sjoerd-> nickrud: Ah, ok I found them. What I really want is to setup the ftp server. Maybe the documentation here works for ubuntu. Thanks.
[06:13] <buggzero> Is there no built in theme chooser?
[06:13] <buggzero> for GTK+
[06:13] <lightstar> buggzero, gtk-theme-switch
[06:13] <dope> freakabcd: dude u sure your giving me the right mirrors? lol

[06:14] <freakabcd> i just got the package from that cmdline. i copy pasted it here _after_ it worked
[06:14] <Cntryboy> shad0wle still here?
[06:14] <freakabcd> dope, you have links ?
[06:14] <freakabcd> or lynx?
[06:14] <dope> freakabcd: yeah, i keep checking it
[06:14] <buggzero>  The kind that sound like this:    "Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 440 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed.
[06:14] <buggzero> "
[06:14] <dope> freakabcd: lynx
[06:14] <nickrud> Sjoerd-, there's a doc dir for every package. Most actually have some useful stuff there ;)
[06:14] <panthar> Does anyone have any experience fixing an XMMS/Rhythmbox problem of locking up when trying to play MP3 streams?  They can both play local MP3's on my machine but lock up when attempting to play most streams.
[06:15] <freakabcd> dope, go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/x11/915resolution

[06:17] <Stylish_One> hows it going
[06:17] <Dralid> I'm using Azureus and the torrents will run fine for one minute than all connections drop to 0 B/s for fifteen minutes and repeat. I've applied the CVS switch-out to get Azureus to work. This is well beyond the normal fluctuations for torrents.
[06:17] <ElBarono> why did my screensaver stop locking when I close my laptop lid?
[06:17] <someothernick> good
[06:17] <someothernick> u?
[06:17] <Stylish_One> pretty good

[06:17] <someothernick> :)
[06:18] <Stylish_One> asl?
[06:18] <buggzero> lightstar did you get that?
[06:18] <someothernick> O.o

[06:19] <dope> freakabcd: yes i see them, its now giving me the option to install it, do it?
[06:19] <buggzero> no it opens but it doesn't show any themes working
[06:19] <freakabcd> install? woah. ok i didn't know you could install from within lynx
[06:19] <Stylish_One> is the use for this chat only for help with linux?
[06:19] <freakabcd> anyway, if it doesn;t work, download it to somewhere on your disk
[06:20] <dope> ok
[06:20] <someothernick> Stylish_One, #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:20] <dope> freakabcd: it installed
[06:20] <icefeldt> guys i'm missing a file to compile a programm. its called "sysfs.c" need it for cpufreqd. where can i get it?
[06:20] <dope> freakabcd: it says that it has not been automatically configured
[06:20] <lightstar> buggzero, do you see default?
[06:20] <Stylish_One> blah
[06:20] <dope> freakabcd: 915resolution wasnt able to start
[06:21] <Stylish_One> i don't understand this chat
[06:21] <someothernick> this is for help
[06:21] <buggzero> lightstar: yes I see it, but all the preview windows look alike
[06:21] <lightstar> Stylish_One, join #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:21] <someothernick> other chan is for chat
[06:21] <Stylish_One> oh
[06:21] <dope> Panel id function not support
[06:21] <dope> Panel id function not supported
[06:21] <Stylish_One> which one?
[06:21] <someothernick> Stylish_One, #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:21] <freakabcd> dope, 915resolution -l
[06:21] <sentinel> I currently have a GUI ubuntu install setup for remote accessing, therefore without a monitor plugged in, except after the reboot without the monitor, it seems to only be able to start X at 640x480 resolution, is there any way I could force it to run at a higher resolution?
[06:21] <dope> ok
[06:21] <lightstar> buggzero, even after clicking apply?
[06:21] <Stylish_One> oh okay I get it that's a link. sorry.
[06:21] <freakabcd> does it list a 1024x768 32bpp ?
[06:21] <freakabcd> prolly mode 54
[06:21] <sentinel> nope
[06:22] <efox> ARG ! I hate wireless
[06:22] <lightstar> buggzero, you need to close and restart the app to get the new theme
[06:22] <dope> freakabcd:  it gave me an output with a bunch of modes and resoltions
[06:22] <Stylish_One> thx.
[06:22] <sentinel> in the GUI configuration it only lists 640x480 at 60hz
[06:22] <efox> Anyone recommend a good network manager ?
[06:22] <freakabcd> sentinel, sorry dude, what i say applies to dope at the moment.
[06:23] <efox> Where you can connect to any network, open, shared or protected and if it requires a wep or wpa i can just enter it
[06:23] <kholerabbi> Anyone know how to install shockwave on breezy?
[06:23] <kholerabbi> (fore firefox)
[06:23] <efox> my "terminal" experience is getting rather frustrating because sometimes i can connect and other times i cannot
[06:23] <nickrud> sentinel, you might want to try using freenx or fall back on ssh -X , that way you're not tied to the resolution at the other end.
[06:24] <dope> freakabcd: im not sure what that did
[06:24] <AkumAPRIME> hey, is there a way to get Ubuntu to change the background wallpaper every X units of time, like other linux Distros do?
[06:24] <freakabcd> dope, err.. did you see what i typed earlier?
[06:25] <dope> freakabcd: if you mean the 915resolution -l, then yes
[06:25] <freakabcd> does it list a 1024x768 32bpp ? probably mode 54
[06:25] <disinterested> im trying to install ov51x-jpeg-0.5.3.tar.gz with no success any help?
[06:25] <dope> yes
[06:25] <dope> it does
[06:25] <nickrud> kholerabbi, only by installing firefox or ie in wine, shockwave doesn't exist for linux
[06:25] <linuxk> where do themes go?
[06:25] <EnsignRedshirt> Hello, world.
[06:25] <nickrud> linuxk, /usr/share/themes
[06:25] <dope> do i edit the xorg.conf file ?
[06:25] <lightstar> AkumAPRIME, depending on the wm, you can write a script and put it in crontab to change the wallpaper
[06:25] <kholerabbi> Argh, really? no shockwave grr
[06:26] <bimberi> kholerabbi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[06:26] <kholerabbi> cheers
[06:26] <bimberi> yw :)
[06:26] <nothingman> I upgraded to Dapper, it boots, gives me ssh, but mythtv-backend doesn't run and I can't see my gui
[06:26] <nickrud> evil page ;p
[06:26] <nothingman> running it on the laptop right now, btw, and loving it
[06:26] <nothingman> but on my mythbackend it doesn't even give me X
[06:26] <bimberi> !ubotu shockwave is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[06:26] <ubotu> ...but shockwave is already something else...
[06:26] <bimberi> !ubotu no shockwave is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[06:26] <ubotu> okay, bimberi
[06:26] <EnsignRedshirt> If anyone here knows something about routing and VPN, could you take a look at this and see if the routing makes sense: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16047
[06:27] <nothingman> I upgraded to Dapper but now have no X
[06:27] <nickrud> bimberi, you noticed the change already
[06:27] <freakabcd> dope, try adding Option "VBERestore" "yes"
[06:27] <freakabcd> within the Device section
[06:27] <bimberi> nickrud: to help.u.c ?  yes
[06:27] <nickrud> caught me right in an edit
[06:28] <dope> ok
[06:28] <bimberi> nickrud: oops, sorry :(
[06:28] <buggzero> lightstar: that didnt fix the problem
[06:28] <nickrud> you?
[06:28] <dope> freakabcd:  should i switch the driver back to i810, it was on vesa at the moment
[06:28] <lightstar> buggzero, are you on gnome?
[06:28] <freakabcd> yes, back to i810
[06:28] <buggzero> it gave me two more errors: Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 440 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed.
[06:28] <buggzero> GLib-CRITICAL **: file gstrfuncs.c: line 186 (g_strconcat): assertion `string1 != NULL' failed.
[06:28] <buggzero> yes i am
[06:28] <bimberi> nickrud: you were editing the factoid?
[06:28] <nickrud> bimberi, no the wiki change.
[06:28] <dope> ok
[06:29] <bimberi> nickrud: ah
[06:29] <nickrud> but I saw your failure, so stopped. That was true also ;)
[06:29] <freakabcd> dope, also. when you're done editing: rm -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log;
[06:29] <dope> freakabcd: done
[06:29] <dope> ok
[06:30] <dope> ok don
[06:30] <dope> e
[06:30] <buggzero> lightstar., yes im on gnome
[06:30] <freakabcd> dope, this might sound silly: shutdown the machine and remove powersupply (_including_ the battery on the laptop. then switch back on
[06:30] <dope> freakabcd: im not on a laptop
[06:30] <freakabcd> ok, no worries then. reboot
[06:30] <lightstar> buggzero, errr... gnome allows you to change themes.. using the theme option in the control center
[06:30] <nich0s> I am having an initial video card issue, where the Gnome desktop refuses to load.
[06:30] <freakabcd> or maybe do shutdown and reboot
[06:31] <lightstar> buggzero, you don't need to use gtk-theme-switch
[06:31] <dope> freakabcd: ok
[06:31] <dope> freakabcd: hope this works, heh
[06:31] <freakabcd> yeah
[06:31] <Cntryboy> Can someone help me fix my unreal tournament. It's choppy, won't let me choose 1024x768, and it won't let me change the color bit to 16. I'm not even sure if it's loading nvidia drivers even though the latest are installed and working properly...
[06:31] <buggzero> lightstar: control center?
[06:31] <lightstar> buggzero, gnome-control-center
[06:31] <johnZay> hiya... can I steal more space of an nfts partition for linux?
[06:32] <Oddzball> Alright guys, Im at my wits end
[06:32] <nich0s> johnZay, You should be ablt to use a util called ntfs-resize, it's an open source project.
[06:32] <Oddzball> this makes no sense, i did everything I am suppose to and for some reason the aticonfig file is nowhere to be found
[06:32] <EnsignRedshirt> If anyone knows a little about routing and pptp VPN tunnels, take a look at this and tell me if there is anything obviously wrong with the routing: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16047
[06:32] <johnZay> is it safe?
[06:33] <Cntryboy> so no one here plays games? all im asking for is alittle help
[06:33] <EnsignRedshirt> johnZay: Nothing is safe. Backup your disk first.
[06:33] <nich0s> Always backup
[06:33] <gavagai> johnZay, if you're worried about it, no it isn't safe
[06:33] <johnZay> hehe :-)
[06:34] <lightstar> buggzero, from gnome-control-center, choose 'theme' and from there you can change the icon and the windows
[06:34] <HeavyJay> how happy am I to have my wireless working finally?  very freaking happy.
[06:34] <Cntryboy> I need help configuring the original unreal tournament to where it's not so dang choppy, I can choose 1024x768, and let me choose 16bit..
[06:34] <nich0s> How would I go about reconfiguring my video preferences from the term?
[06:34] <Oddzball> Please, can someone explain to me why the ATI linux drivers are not installing?
[06:34] <Davo_Dinkum> if i enable universal packages, doesnt that mean i risk installing non-Free Software?
[06:35] <Cntryboy> !ati
[06:35] <ubotu> http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI radeon 9200 & below supported by open-source drivers http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide

[06:35] <freakabcd> ok. what error?
[06:35] <freakabcd> paste the whole log file
[06:36] <gavagai> nich0s, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg .   iirc
[06:36] <Davo_Dinkum> do universal packages contain non-Free Software?
[06:36] <nickrud> Cntryboy, you need to install the xorg-driver-fglrx to have aticonfig
[06:36] <dope> ok
[06:36] <Cntryboy> I don't need the help on that rud
[06:36] <EnsignRedshirt> Davo_Dinkum: No. http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components

[06:40] <Davo_Dinkum> how do i edit /etc/apt/sources.list again?
[06:40] <Cntryboy> nvidia-setttings? how do I get into them

[06:40] <freakabcd> dope, anyway. cat /etc/default/915resolution
[06:40] <matthew_w> How would I run something as a different user/
[06:40] <nich0s> sudo
[06:41] <dope> freakabcd: ok
[06:41] <alth> Why would you want to, matthew? In what context?
[06:41] <matthew_w> there used to be a "run as different user" in system tools, run as different user
[06:41] <EnsignRedshirt> Davo_Dinkum: You could just use Synaptic:  System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[06:41] <freakabcd> whats ti say?
[06:41] <freakabcd> blanks ?
[06:41] <matthew_w> alth; I have a mythtv user and group, and I want to run mythtv-setup as the mythtv user.

[06:41] <matthew_w> Now the shortcut is gone from the menu X_X
[06:41] <alth> Ah. Maybe there's a script, but I don't know an easy way to do that...

[06:42] <nich0s> Ok
[06:42] <dope> ok
[06:42] <freakabcd> set that and save the file
[06:42] <nickrud> matthew_w, if it was in the menu in breezy, try running the accessory alacarte, and seeing if the menu entry is just turned off.
[06:43] <Cntryboy> who here is a video card-game player expert helper?
[06:43] <Cntryboy> need help bad :(
[06:43] <matthew_w> nickrud; thanks 1
[06:43] <matthew_w> :D
[06:43] <nich0s> I am getting a error when I try to boot my box in to ubuntu I get an error about the vid card being uncompatible... how would I go about changing that back over to the standard VESA driver?
[06:43] <dope> freakabcd: ok, done
[06:43] <freakabcd> dope, sudo /etc/init.d/915resolution
[06:43] <goodtimes> how can I set my ip address as static when connecting to my wireless router? In windows I just setup my ip as 192.168.1.200 in the network configuration, I tried the same with ubuntu but was unable to connect to the network
[06:43] <Davo_Dinkum> EnsignRedshirt: i cant change it there, multiverse doesnt show up under Settings>Repositories
[06:43] <dope> ok
[06:43] <freakabcd> startx
[06:43] <nickrud> MatthewV, yw
[06:44] <Cntryboy> nich0s- sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then choose vesa
[06:44] <dope> it says usage: /etc/init.d/915resolution start
[06:44] <freakabcd> ok, do the start then
[06:44] <dope> ok
[06:44] <nich0s> cntryboy, thanks a million
[06:44] <Oddzball> *Nickrud* Ug, well, I will take another look at the wiki, ive been at this for 3 days now non-stop.. its getting real frustrating
[06:44] <Cntryboy> np
[06:44] <efox> am i still in this room ?
[06:44] <efox> guess not
[06:44] <dope> freakabcd: same error
[06:45] <garryfre> nich0s that would be the name of the video driver ... vesa. Exactly what video card do you have?
[06:45] <Oddzball> *Nickrud* Whats the link to the wiki again?
[06:45] <Oddzball> .. nevermind
[06:45] <dope> i810(0): No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth
[06:45] <nich0s> I have two
[06:45] <nich0s> I have the onboard intel card
[06:45] <nickrud> Oddzball, if you didn't have the fglrx driver already installed, you didn't read it carefully. help.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ati I think.
[06:45] <freakabcd> dope, very strange. you might want to file a bugreport on bugzilla for xorg
[06:45] <nich0s> and an onboard nvidia
[06:45] <dope> freakabcd: how do i do that
[06:46] <freakabcd> dope, sorry couldn't figure out your display problem
[06:46] <Cntryboy> for nvidia choose nv until u have nvidia drivers, then change that to nvidia in xorg.conf
[06:46] <freakabcd> dope, lynx or links and then https://bugs.freedesktop.org/
[06:46] <nich0s> I will do that, but for the mean time and the majority of the time I am using the intel card for battery life.
[06:46] <dope> freakabcd: its ok, you tried
[06:46] <nickrud> Oddzball, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[06:46] <dope> ok
[06:46] <Cntryboy> well for that im not sure unless its vesa
[06:47] <freakabcd> i've got to runn off and do other stuff now.
[06:47] <nich0s> sounds good... thanks for the help
[06:47] <Cntryboy> or it might pick it up default
[06:47] <EnsignRedshirt> Davo_Dinkum: Which version of Ubunut are you using?  If 6.06: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[06:47] <freakabcd> if you're still around when i get back might try some other stuff
[06:47] <nickrud> Cntryboy, been learning your X I see ;0
[06:47] <nich0s> I'll bother you again soon :)O
[06:47] <garryfre> nich0s Hmmm, Should be able to run one of those in accellerated mode. Try this url, sometimes it helps you auto setup your video card. .... http://users.on.net/~goetz/EasyUbuntu/
[06:47] <dope> freakabcd: alriht  i probably will be
[06:47] <Cntryboy> nickrud, ive done it a lot trying to fix this unreal tourny lol
[06:48] <Oddzball> Nickrud, seriously, Ive read it a lot, I tried the driver before, but getting dual head working seems to be a pain, I dont know why considering I follow the instructions.
[06:49] <EnsignRedshirt> Davo_Dinkum: ...and if 5.10: https://help.ubuntu.com/5.10/ubuntu/faq/C/fg-installing-applications.html
[06:49] <zodo> I seem to be having trouble getting apm support running on my ancient laptop.  Prior to this, I was running debian stable (Kernel 2.6.8) with no issues, power management wise.  Now that I've jumped up to Dapper w/ 2.6.15 I get "Error inserting apm...no such device" and so forth when running modprobe apm.  Is it possible that the kernel is attempting to load acpi at startup, and thus preventing apm from functioning?
[06:49] <garryfre> nich0s You said both cards were onboard. You mean you actually have two video cards in two different slots or is one built into the motherboard and the other in a slot?
[06:50] <nickrud> Oddzball, I never have run an ati, but I did see that you not having aticonfig meant something was wrong at a fundamental level. That wiki page has been worked over and refined for a while.
[06:50] <zodo> I've seen the "acpi=force" command for adding to grub's menu.lst...what's the variation to prevent acpi from being loaded?
[06:50] <lightstar> zodo, acpi=off
[06:51] <nich0s> garryfre, I am a laptop with two motherboard vid cards
[06:51] <nich0s> one is intel, one is nvida
[06:51] <zodo> Thanks, lightstar.  I'll give that a try, I guess.
[06:51] <lightstar> zodo, np:)
[06:51] <letsgfuad> how is ubuntu w/ php servers?
[06:51] <zodo> I didn't want to try acpi=no and have it kill grub.  :)
[06:52] <garryfre> Wow, that might confuse easybuntu, two different video cards. It's probably what is confusing xorg configuration itself.
[06:52] <nich0s> I only activate one at a time :)
[06:52] <lightstar> zodo, you can try it first b4 editing ur grub...
[06:52] <nich0s> Not too confusing
[06:52] <garryfre> Cool, that's a good idea.
[06:52] <nich0s> Yeah
[06:52] <lightstar> zodo, edit it manually during bootup and it is only 4 that session
[06:52] <Cntryboy> if unreal tournament says this for vidieo driver does this mean my nvidia is picking up open gl. (  <?int?OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRen  ) thats all it shows but im sure it keeps going.
[06:53] <zodo> How would I go about editing it manually during bootup?
[06:53] <lightstar> zodo, when you see the grub booting press 'ESC' and you can edit the options
[06:53] <zodo> This is my first time running grub...i was always a lilo guy.  :)
[06:53] <lightstar> zodo, ahhh..:)
[06:53] <jrattner1> QUESTION: How can I find out where my BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH is?
[06:54] <jrattner1> ?
[06:54] <garryfre> type set in a terminal I think it shows you your environmental variable settings.
[06:54] <jrattner1> anyone?
[06:55] <nickrud> jrattner1, it's probably /usr, but why would you need to set it?
[06:55] <linuxk> whats the default password fro the root account?
[06:55] <mada> linuxk: there is no root account
[06:55] <lightstar> linuxk, root dun have passwd by default
[06:55] <linuxk> how do you reset the root password?
[06:55] <jrattner1> nickrud, im building a GNUsTicker and it needs to know the path
[06:55] <lightstar> linuxk, if you need root, type sudo -i and enter you own password
[06:55] <garryfre> Hmmm, I thought he wanted to just see it.
[06:55] <mnemone> i thought i could turn off the annoying terminal BEEP by using stty, but i'm not seeing how to.
[06:55] <jrattner1> nickrud, how do i set in in my .bash_profile to the proper directory
[06:55] <mada> linuxk: can't be done if you don't know it
[06:56] <gavagai> mada, sure it can
[06:56] <mada> linuxk: that is the point of a root account, it can't be over-ridden
[06:56] <linuxk> how can i extract to folders like /usr/themes?
[06:56] <lightstar> linuxk, either boot into single user mode or become root using 'sudo -i' and type passwd
[06:56] <nickrud> jrattner1, add it to ~/.gnomec if you're using gnome
[06:56] <jrattner1> nickrud, ? are you sure it says i should add it to .bash_profile
[06:56] <kazuki> Does Ubuntu support JFS File system ?????
[06:56] <Cntryboy> if unreal tournament says this for vidieo driver does this mean my nvidia is picking up open gl. (  <?int?OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRen  ) thats all it shows but im sure it keeps going.
[06:57] <mada> gavagai: that must be a ubuntu thing (i am a new transplant from debian, just wanted something a little easier for my desktop) and you cannot reset a root password on debian without knowing what it currently is
[06:57] <jrattner1> nickrud, how do i add it
[06:57] <goodtimes> how can I set my ip address as static when connecting to my wireless router? In windows I just setup my ip as 192.168.1.200 in the network configuration, I tried the same with ubuntu but was unable to connect to the network
[06:57] <Madpilot> linuxk, use sudo - or for installing desktop themes in Gnome, go System->Prefs->Themes
[06:57] <nickrud> jrattner1, open .bash_profile with gedit, and add it at the bottom
[06:57] <zodo> Hmm...nixternal in #kubuntu says that the command I should use is pci=noacpi.  You're gunna have to fight him, lightstar.  :)
[06:57] <garryfre> mnemone: If you have gnome, you can turn off certain sound events under system/preferences/sound
[06:57] <Dewbie> sudo is da bomb
[06:57] <gavagai> mada, i was thinking of booting to linux single/recovery
[06:57] <nickrud> I haven't seen bonobo in action in a while
[06:57] <mada> gavagai: ah, rgr
[06:57] <lightstar> zodo, haha...i tried acpi=off and it worked for me..hehe..mayb its anohter way to disable it
[06:58] <gavagai> i am also a new transplant.  :)
[06:58] <MrBrizzio> is there a graphical Grub editor?
[06:58] <jrattner1> nickrud, that was my question, add what?
[06:58] <lightstar> gavagai, even booting into single user mode, unless set otherwise, it won't ask for root password
[06:58] <zodo> Of course it's all a moot point if it doesn't fix apm for me.
[06:58] <jrattner1> nickrud, bonobo: /usr/lib/bonobo /usr/local/lib/bonobo /usr/share/bonobo
[06:58] <nickrud> jrattner1, it's been a couple of years since I used that, a sec
[06:58] <puroDF> Hi guys! I'm trying to install the drivers for my printer. So, I went to System/Administration/Printing/  Then it gave me the option of adding a printer, so the one I got is PSC 2400. Anyway, I am on step 2 of 3, I clicked on install driver, now it tells me to select a PPD file, what do I do now?
[06:59] <zodo> Well, I guess I'll be off to try it.
[06:59] <lightstar> zodo, well hope either one option works for u;)
[06:59] <zodo> Thanks.
[06:59] <lightstar> np

[07:00] <Dralid> How do I upgrade to Sun jre 1.5?
[07:00] <DarkMageZ> what does .dmrc contain?
[07:00] <xanavim> how do I mount my usb hard drive?  when I plug it in, virtual terminal 8 says "sdb: assuming drive cache: write through" but I can't mount or fdisk /dev/sdb
[07:01] <DarkMageZ> nvm =D
[07:01] <nickrud> Dralid, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin sun-java5-plugin
[07:02] <Oddzball> Nickrud.. alright, ive already done all the stuff in the wiki but i get no results, I personnally think it has something to do with Linux not finding my DVI port or something?
[07:02] <pschulz01> Greetings, I'm looking for the 'fontforge' package... but it doesn't seem to be available. I can get the source though.
[07:03] <nickrud> Oddzball, ok, dual output on an ati. I've never owned an ati, so I have zero clues
[07:03] <Oddzball> hrmm
[07:03] <Oddzball> Damn, why cant it just be simple...
[07:03] <garryfre> !ati
[07:03] <ubotu> http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI radeon 9200 & below supported by open-source drivers http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide
[07:04] <Dralid> I got:Reading package lists... Done
[07:04] <Dralid> Building dependency tree... Done
[07:04] <Dralid> sun-java5-bin is already the newest version.
[07:04] <Dralid> Package sun-java5-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:04] <Dralid> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[07:04] <Dralid> is only available from another source
[07:04] <Dralid> E: Package sun-java5-plugin has no installation candidate
[07:04] <nickrud> Dralid, posting here is not nice. And, for the solution, you need to enable the multiverse repository
[07:04] <nickrud> !multiverse
[07:04] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource.
[07:04] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell Dralid about java
[07:05] <nickrud> heh, I've seen that stream so often, I've forgotten to read
[07:05] <xanavim> Dralid: please don't flood the channel
[07:05] <Oddzball> garryfre, thanks but ive already done all that, they say zilch about dualhead setup, and the wiki artical that does talk about it, just plain doesnt work.
[07:06] <nickrud> Dralid, but that shows you are up todate.
[07:06] <Oddzball> Why the heck cant i just hit FN F7 and have my notebook output to my LCD anyway, why doesnt this work?
[07:06] <garryfre> Oddzball: Yeah. Web pages are good at dancing around the answer to a question and never giving it.
[07:06] <Oddzball> garryfre Personally the dualhead wiki is old and needs to be updated..
[07:06] <nickrud> Dralid, what kind of machine do you have?
[07:07] <nickrud> I'm wondering why you don't have the plugin available
[07:07] <Dralid> amd 64-bit
[07:07] <nickrud> ok, thanks.
[07:07] <Oddzball> I am seriously thinking about taking my machine to a damn shop and having them do it for me
[07:07] <Oddzball> i dont want to but after 3 days its like pulling teeth
[07:08] <Oddzball> Notebooks suck..
[07:08] <dennis_> hello there
[07:08] <xanavim> Oddzball: really?  I love my thinkpad
[07:08] <garryfre> Ouch, that stinks. Three days, Yeesh.
[07:08] <Oddzball> well, good notebooks do, because half the features dont work right in linux, like the dvi output on the back,
[07:08] <dennis_> <[07:08] <xanavim> Oddzball: works on mine
[07:09] <Oddzball> Garryfre the worst part is I HAVE to get the external LCD working, my notebook lcd is going out
[07:09] <Oddzball> xanavim, care to send me your xorg.conf?
[07:09] <dennis_> shoulda got a sony
[07:09] <Oddzball> cause seriously, i aint figuring it out
[07:09] <Oddzball> i have a clevo, which is like the alienware 51, without the fancy sticker
[07:09] <xanavim> Oddzball: mainly a result of checking linuxlaptops.com before buying
[07:09] <garryfre> Hmmm, I wonder if the dying lcd is triggering this "Fun"
[07:09] <IcemanV9> xanavim: which model? i am planning to get (hopefully) one next month. :)
[07:09] <xanavim> T43
[07:10] <IcemanV9> nice!
[07:10] <foo> Hm, what's the default media player that ubuntu has? That takes the place of itunes.
[07:10] <dennis_> <<<<sony vgnfs640/w dual booted
[07:10] <molinero> !es
[07:10] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:10] <Madpilot> foo, Rhythymbox?
[07:10] <eFoX> ok, yesterday i finally got connected to my router, but today its not working
[07:10] <Oddzball> eriously though, send me your xorg.conf, i would love to look at it..
[07:10] <IcemanV9> i have my eyes on T60 .. i know it's brand new and hoping Ubuntu will run on it smoothly
[07:10] <Oddzball> or paste it for me actually..
[07:10] <eFoX> so, how do i connect to a wireless network... ?
[07:11] <eFoX> iwconfig interface essid ESSID ?
[07:11] <dennis_> dats de easy part
[07:11] <dennis_> i cant use my modem
[07:12] <Oddzball> ok here is a simple question then
[07:12] <Oddzball> how do i use XFree rather than Xorg?
[07:12] <dennis_> mmm-hmmm
[07:12] <IcemanV9> foo: rhythmbox is the default and it works just fine with everything that i have thrown at (so far)
[07:13] <Mugginns> i have an xchat question, can anyone help ?
[07:14] <vick> Why is ubuntu a good os to use than other distros ?
[07:14] <Hobbsee> Mugginns: just ask
[07:14] <nickrud> Mugginns, don't ask to ask, just ask ;)
[07:14] <vick> i mean why ubuntu and not gentoo or debian ?
[07:14] <xanavim> vick: because it actually works
[07:14] <Madpilot> Mugginns, possibly, but it helps if you actuall ask the question :)
[07:14] <Oddzball> well.. i give up for now though guys, ive been at this all day, im gonna go back to windows, for the moment, as much as i dislike it, at least its easy to setup and external monitor
[07:14] <vick> xanavim: The others also work
[07:14] <Mugginns> Sure
[07:15] <Mugginns> I try to ignore people...but it never seems to work.
[07:15] <Mugginns> what is the proper way to ignore someone ?
[07:15] <L-----D> vick: it's well supported
[07:15] <xanavim> vick: use the other ones then
[07:15] <vick> xanavim: Why are you talking to me anyway ?
[07:15] <eFoX> when you use "iwconfig" it displays how your interface is set up right ?
[07:15] <Madpilot> Mugginns, "/ignore $nick" seems to work
[07:16] <L-----D> Mugginns: windows->ignore list
[07:16] <vick> L-----D: Why does gentoo gets this reputation ? ( i was going to go with gentoo, but agter checking distrowatch.org i kind of changed my opinion )
[07:16] <garryfre> Might also work to right-click the user name on the user list window
[07:16] <xanavim> vick: gentoo, otoh, wastes lots of time and energy waiting for things to finish compiling
[07:17] <Mugginns> it says in window>ignore "nick" and ignoring, and it has all checked
[07:17] <Mugginns> but i see their msgs still
[07:17] <vick> xanavim: Yeah i realized that was a major dis, what about debian ?
[07:17] <nickrud> and debian is rock solid but doesn't give us the opportunity to bleed
[07:17] <garryfre> And if you are like me, having the attention span of a drowned gnat you can make a mistake and become totally lost and confused setting it up.
[07:17] <Hobbsee> vick: how about you take all this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:17] <vick> xanavim: By the way, i didnt come here because i am bored or want to have some irc-fun, i am really wondering
[07:17] <Hobbsee> as it's hardly support
[07:18] <L-----D> nickrud: ;D it really hurt you that much?
[07:18] <vick> Hobbsee: And you take this to #stfu ?
[07:18] <nickrud> L-----D, #offtopic ;)
[07:18] <vick> what's the matter with you people
[07:18] <Madpilot> vick, this is a tech support channel - and a busy one. #ubuntu-offtopic is for everything else.
[07:18] <nickrud> vick, nothing, we compartmentalize certain things away from here
[07:18] <garryfre> Don't sweat it, we all get off topic sometimes I bet.
[07:18] <vick> i didn't ask "hey dudes! ubuntu sucks ass, what's good about it!"
[07:19] <mooseman447> hey
[07:19] <Hobbsee> vick: yes, if you had, i would have banned you.
[07:19] <Mugginns> I like ubuntu cos its easy coming from windows and i can learn stuff still
[07:19] <disinterested> idk whats wrong with them im still trying to install a driver
[07:19] <vick> Hobbsee: are you showing off ?
[07:19] <Hobbsee> vick: as it was, i'm asking you to move it to #ubuntu-offtopic as you do want to know, and it's not a flame, and it deserves an answer
[07:20] <vick> Hobbsee: no, i think that's related to #ubuntu, plus i have more questions.
[07:20] <vick> Hobbsee: Now mind your own business, i'm following the rules here.
[07:20] <mprasodjo> hi all
[07:20] <xanavim> vick: no, it's not a support problem
[07:20] <Hobbsee> vick: by all means, ask the other questions, if they're support related questions.
[07:20] <lwizardl> using ubuntu 6.06 lts how would i setup a nameserver on it
[07:20] <mprasodjo> anybody here can help me ?
[07:20] <lwizardl> ?
[07:20] <mooseman447> does anybody know why ubuntu randomly stops accepting connections across my network recently?
[07:20] <vick> Hobbsee: i've actually came here to hang and talk with people i know, is that a problem ?
[07:20] <crimsun> lwizardl: try installing bind9
[07:20] <mprasodjo> i try to installing ubuntu dapper 6.0.6 to ibm xseries 306m and got a problem
[07:20] <xanavim> mprasodjo: ask your question and we'll see
[07:20] <L-----D> Mugginns: try #xchat or find some read
[07:20] <Madpilot> mprasodjo, it helps if you ask a question first :)
[07:20] <Mugginns> thanks
[07:21] <nickrud> vick, no offense, but hanging & talking is done in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:21] <Madpilot> Mugginns, #xchat are pretty good for XChat questions - makes up for the awful documentation XChat has :)
[07:21] <vick> Is talking about what to talk done in #ubuntu ?
[07:21] <nickrud> not often. and short
[07:21] <Drac|Mac> Nothing seems to be able to access my sound card. I know it's supported. It worked under breezy and under an upgrade to dapper, so it must work on straight Dapper, too. I can't figure out why there is no /dev/dsp if alsamixer can configure the card...
[07:21] <vick> and i though freenode network had grownups.
[07:22] <disinterested> madpilot do u know how i need to install this ov51x-jpeg-0.5.3 driver
[07:22] <Madpilot> disinterested, not offhand - what's it a driver for?
[07:22] <disinterested> a webcam
[07:22] <Drac|Mac> Correction. ALSA CAN'T see my card.
[07:22] <mooseman447> does anybody know anything about my issue?
[07:22] <Sjoerd-> any pureftpd users in the house?
[07:22] <mprasodjo> my problem is, if i turn on raid at the adaptec scsi bios, the installation not recognice the adapter but
[07:22] <Mugginns> Thanks much
[07:22] <mooseman447> sjoerd i do if my ubuntu box accepts connections
[07:23] <vick> sjoerd: that's not a support question
[07:23] <Madpilot> disinterested, I've never used a webcam in Ubuntu - sorry
[07:23] <mprasodjo> at other way, if i turn off the raid support then the disk will know as scsi hd
[07:23] <mprasodjo> installation is success without any problem
[07:23] <disinterested> with cd Desktop ls and tar xvzf i can get the tar to open but im stuck from there
[07:23] <mprasodjo> the problem came when i try to boot the machine to finishing the installation
[07:23] <Drac|Mac> ALSA can't seem to connect to my card, yet this iMac has a working system beep tone, and certain OSS things like system sounds work. What's going on?
[07:23] <Sjoerd-> I am trying to get pureftpd up and running, have done apt-get install but documentation seems to not be for ubuntu installations.
[07:23] <Madpilot> mprasodjo, a lot of the SATA "RAID" setups aren't real hardware raid
[07:23] <bobstro> vick:  the thought police are not democratic :)
[07:24] <mooseman447> sjoerd do you have webmin?
[07:24] <mprasodjo> it cannot found root fs
[07:24] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I don't think so because it doesn't mean anything to me
[07:24] <Drac|Mac> Please help. It's very late and I need to get this done.
[07:24] <mprasodjo> i already try many thing including doc at wiki for fakeraid
[07:25] <bobstro> is there a nice little app that will let me change the COLOR of a gnome theme independent of everything else?
[07:25] <mooseman447> you can find it in synaptic but thats what i use to setup my proftpd and it works great
[07:25] <varsendaggr> dapper has xgl right?
[07:25] <Drac|Mac> bobstro, gedit. :)
[07:25] <mooseman447> if you did it would probably come up at https://localhost:10000
[07:25] <tritium> yes, varsendaggr
[07:25] <bobstro> Drac|Mac:  yeah, i was afraid of that. :)
[07:26] <Madpilot> bobstro, that's one of the problems w/ Gnome themes currently...
[07:26] <Drac|Mac> bobstro, Hex codes don't require learning. Just find the current color by searching for its value, then replace it with one of your liking.
[07:26] <mprasodjo> maddler, yap, so i try to turn off it. but problem came when machine is boot for finishing the installation. grub is working but it can not find root filesystem
[07:26] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: It is already running, I can connect via ftp. Problem is that I have no idea how to add new users. And how do I permit them to only their own folders?
[07:26] <xadhatter> hello all, having problem mounting samba shares thru nautilus, completly locks up machine. works fine from terminal. any ideas? Ubuntu 6.06
[07:26] <mooseman447> sjoerd oh ok proftpd just uses linux users
[07:27] <mooseman447> add a user and its home directory will be their folder
[07:27] <bobstro> Drac|Mac:  yes, but not trivial to teach others. colors are one of the first things they want to change, and when something so simple can't be done, it's a negative.
[07:27] <Drac|Mac> bobstro, I suppose so. Yes.
[07:27] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I read it enabled the system users by default. There should be more options though.
[07:27] <mprasodjo> can anyone give me a suggest ?
[07:27] <Drac|Mac> So, can anyone help me fix my broken sound?
[07:27] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: The documentation from sourceforge doesn't seem to apply for ubuntu :(
[07:27] <bobstro> Drac|Mac:  it's compunded by over-use of dirt-brown color scheme.
[07:27] <mooseman447> sjoerd like what options?
[07:28] <Hobbsee> Drac|Mac: crimsun is good with sound
[07:28] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: Like adding new users.
[07:28] <Drac|Mac> Hobbsee, yes, I know. I just wasn't sure if he was around.
[07:28] <Drac|Mac> Hobbsee, he's not even on the channel right now. :P
[07:28] <Drac|Mac> Hobbsee, Oh... I'm wrong.
[07:28] <garryfre> Um, I just looked at system/preferences/theme and clicked details, and it appears you can change the color of certain windows elements there.
[07:28] <Hobbsee> Drac|Mac: yes he is, i used nick completion :P
[07:28] <mooseman447> sjoerd did you add a user to ubuntu and see if that works?
[07:28] <Drac|Mac> crimsun: *poke*
[07:28] <Drac|Mac> Hobbsee, I did too, but capitalized the C. My mistake.
[07:29] <Hobbsee> Drac|Mac: ah, that'd be why :)
[07:29] <varsendaggr> cut the aye
[07:29] <crimsun> .oO( why are people poking me? )
[07:29] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: My own account works, but adding users for ubuntu is not an option.
[07:29] <mooseman447> why?
[07:29] <_stev_> can I get problems when I assign manually a static ip to my pc if there is a DHCP server?
[07:30] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I want them to only have access to one folder in /var/www/
[07:30] <bobstro> _stev_:  well, if you use an address allocated to something else, yes.
[07:30] <mooseman447> sjoerd you can manually change the home directory of a linux user when you add it http://www.ahinc.com/linux101/users.htm
[07:31] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, audio appears to be failing horribly on this iMac. /dev/dsp is missing in action, yet OSS stuff is working through ALSA for things like system .wav files playing and such.
[07:31] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: err, your terminology usage is confusing.
[07:31] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: what apps are you using to play .wavs, aplay?
[07:32] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I know but still, I read it is possible to add users for just ftp.
[07:32] <Jinkguns> Out of 7 dvds, Ubuntu mounts ONE, and Totem says I'm missing the plugin to handle it. Mplayer can play it though
[07:32] <Jinkguns> any ideas?
[07:32] <Jinkguns> I used EasyUbuntu
[07:32] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, I don't know what GDM utilizes, but that works. Forget what I said about OSS...
[07:33] <mooseman447> sjoerd ok i see what you mean (i really need to get some sleep) well then i dont know think you can add only users for ftp
[07:33] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: ok, forget about gdm. Does ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav'' work?
[07:33] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, no. It can't connect to the card. As I say, /dev/dsp is missing.
[07:33] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: The pureftpd website does say so :)
[07:34] <mooseman447> sjoerd hmm if you find a way let me know ;)
[07:34] <mooseman447> i could use that feature
[07:35] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I am reading the documentation, but it doesn't seem to apply for ubuntu
[07:35] <mooseman447> hmmm did you check the ubuntu forums/
[07:35] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: aplay doesn't use oss devices.
[07:35] <_stev_> bobstro: well If my dhcp has a scope of 5 addresses and I assign manually one to my pc, The dhcp server won't know that it is assigned to anyone, isn't it?
[07:35] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: aplay uses alsa-lib, which accesses /dev/snd/* nodes
[07:35] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, oh.. I thought ALSA used /dev/dsp as well. My mistake.
[07:36] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I found some things but not what i'm looking for as of yet
[07:36] <bobstro> _stev_:  no, just avoid conflicts and you're fine. assign the fixed ip from a different range of addresses and keep track is all you need to do.
[07:36] <xax> non riesco a vedere i canali dvb
[07:36] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: please pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer && lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*''
[07:36] <bobstro> _stev_:  just make sure they're all in the same subnet.

[07:38] <Sjoerd-> mooseman447: I think you can using netstat
[07:38] <gavagai> mooseman447, you can do that without a gui
[07:38] <mooseman447> ........ lol why am i always out of the loop
[07:38] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: Do you use pure-ftpd?
[07:38] <gavagai> i use proftpd
[07:38] <shad0w1e> how do I refer to a command line argument in a bash script... is it %1 ?
[07:39] <crimsun> $1
[07:39] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: Do you have any idea how to manage pure-ftpd? Adding users and stuff.. I guide that applies to Ubuntu would be most welcome.
[07:39] <gavagai> i installed pure-ftpd once, had it working in about 30 seconds, but i'm just used to proftd
[07:39] <shad0w1e> crimsun, ah thanks!
[07:39] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, the users for ftpd are just regular system users
[07:39] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: Well it's working here.. But just for the system users.
[07:39] <xadhatter> hello all, having problem mounting samba shares thru nautilus, completly locks up machine. works fine from terminal. any ideas? Ubuntu 6.06
[07:39] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/720225
[07:39] <_stev_> bobstro: thanks
[07:40] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: I read on the pureftpd website that you can add users just for ftp.
[07:40] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, if you want to add ftp users that just have ftp, what i do is add them as regular users and then make their shell /bin/false
[07:40] <shad0w1e> xadhatter, maybe try mounting as type cifs instead ?
[07:40] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, i don't know about that, sorry, my experience with pure ftpd is about 5 minutes
[07:40] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: mm, mixer error.  ``dmesg'', please?
[07:40] <Mordak> i know im on thin ice just for asking, but im having a serious problem installing my wireless adapter with ndiswrapper. im having problems using an how-to that will work for my adapter, but im rather new to ubuntu and linux and am wondering if someone would be willing to give me a fair about of help getting through the howto.
[07:41] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: That's ok, when I use ftp servers on windows they always have their own users. Doesn't seem really logical to only be able to use the system users :)
[07:41] <Mordak> ive asked around a lot already and havnt had much response, so id REALLY apprecaite it
[07:41] <thoreauputic> !wifi
[07:41] <ubotu> well, 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
[07:41] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, it depends what you want to do.  do you just want some people to have access to your files?  create a generic ftp user whose shell in /bin/false
[07:41] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: Problem is that the documentation on pureftpd is not really the best ever and does not seem to apply for ubuntu os.
[07:41] <_stev_> when I set up raid1 with ubuntu...do I get a message when  one disk fails?
[07:41] <gavagai> s/in/is
[07:41] <xadhatter> shad0wle: now i just get a mount error, "mount error 1 = Operation not permitted"
[07:41] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: For now I need one account for someone that only has to have access to one folder in /var/www/
[07:42] <shad0w1e> xadhatter, thats odd...
[07:42] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, create them as a regular user, make their home be that one folder, and make their shell /bin/false.  that's what i would do.
[07:42] <shad0w1e> oh well, its not that -t smbfs shouldn't have worked..
[07:42] <Mordak> thoreauputic: the problem is, i already am using an easy howto (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926) but im having trouble following it, and im getting errors that i have no idea how to fix
[07:42] <gavagai> i am not an expert or anything though
[07:42] <Sjoerd-> gavagai: Ok i'm going to give it a try
[07:43] <gavagai> that way even if they get ssh or telnet access or whatever they cannot do anything
[07:43] <xadhatter> shad0wle: works with root, but not with norm user
[07:43] <thoreauputic> Mordak: unfortunately I know very little about wireless
[07:43] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/720231
[07:43] <gavagai> however pureftpd may check if /bin/false is a valid shell, so you may need to add /bin/false to the file /etc/shells.  i would make backups of all these files before you start making changes.  :)
[07:44] <garryfre> So if I log in as root suddenly I'm abnormal? j/k
[07:44] <Sjoerd-> maybe it makes sense to start a thread about this on the forums.
[07:44] <matthewmystar17> hello

[07:45] <Drac|Mac> matthewmystar17, me.
[07:46] <matthewmystar17> can you help? I cant boot into linux. I have OS X installed on one hard drive and ubuntu on another and yaboot will never load.

[07:46] <tritium> Ashtonian: clearly offtopic
[07:46] <Drac|Mac> matthewmystar17, sorry, I've never messed with OS X.
[07:46] <Ashtonian> xanavim: ?
[07:46] <Ashtonian> Are you kidding
[07:46] <xanavim> Ashtonian: no
[07:46] <Ashtonian> no it's not

[07:47] <OMGLAZERS> Hey can someone help me with adding an area to a taskbar that I accidently deleted?
[07:47] <Mordak> thoreauputic: alright, well then i have another question. would you by chance be able to help me fix my installation of ndiswrapper? i tried uninstalling it and reinstalling an older version and its just really messed up. any chance you could help? im such an utter noob
[07:47] <tritium> Ashtonian: this is not a channel for political debate or discussion

[07:47] <Ashtonian> OHO!! lol oh man, sorry
[07:47] <Ashtonian> wrong channel
[07:47] <Ashtonian> my fault!
[07:47] <Ashtonian> lol
[07:47] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: doesn't seem like the mixer is even being detected.  Is the oss emulation layer loaded?  If not, then ``sudo modprobe snd_pcm_oss''
[07:48] <tritium> Ashtonian: no problem, in that case
[07:48] <thoreauputic> Mordak: best to ask your question to the whole channel - I don't use wifi and know nothing about ndiswrapper except what it is
[07:48] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, apparently it wasn't.
[07:48] <OMGLAZERS> Hey can someone help me with adding an area to a taskbar that I accidently deleted?
[07:48] <tritium> Drac|Mac: did I see you're running dapper on an iMac?  G5?
[07:48] <nickrud> OMGLAZERS, right click the panel, and look thru the choices to start
[07:48] <Drac|Mac> tritium, G3, 800MHz. :P
[07:49] <shad0w1e> xadhatter, your freezing problem is very likely due to insufficient privaleges?
[07:49] <tritium> Drac|Mac: ah, that makes more sense to me.  I've been unable to get it working on G5.
[07:49] <OMGLAZERS> nickrud: No, a specific one I can't seem to find!
[07:49] <nickrud> OMGLAZERS, which one then?
[07:49] <OMGLAZERS> nickrud: The area where minimized or currently running applications show up
[07:49] <nickrud> OMGLAZERS, notification area
[07:49] <xadhatter> shad0wle: can you be more specific... the thing that gets me is that it works in a term but not in nautilus
[07:49] <OMGLAZERS> nickrud: Ill go look for it
[07:49] <nickrud> OMGLAZERS, for gaim and the like, that is
[07:50] <tylerofl> OMGBLAZERS, what problem are you having?
[07:50] <croak77> OMGLAZERS: or window list
[07:50] <OMGLAZERS> nickrud: Sweet, you're right :)
[07:50] <Mordak> how come only ndiswrapper-utils is shown in the package manager? what if i want to completely uninstall ndiswrapper itself?
[07:50] <OMGLAZERS> nickrud: Thanks. Much appreciated
[07:50] <nickrud> OMGLAZERS, lucky I am ;)
[07:50] <Drac|Mac> The ubuntu channel needs to be split up into two. It's getting two big. :P
[07:50] <Drac|Mac> too*
[07:51] <tylerofl> did you... mean to make that pun?
[07:51] <Drac|Mac> Tired... I'm very, very tired. :P
[07:51] <tylerofl> oh, okay :P

[07:51] <redblades> Hi everyone
[07:51] <blocky> can anyone tell me why my eterms stop accepting keystrokes if i press ctrl + s accidentally

[07:51] <nekostar> well

[07:51] <nekostar> for those of yall that dont care im gonna tell ya anyway
[07:51] <thoreauputic> blocky: because that's what ctrl+s does - try ctrl+q
[07:51] <Drac|Mac> xanavim, I know, but having one for main release minor problems and one for main release major problems would make things well balanced between two channels. Major problems would take more, thus the line traffic would be about the same as lots of minor problems in the other channel.

[07:55] <tylerofl> wait
[07:55] <lwizardl> tritium says failed to bring eth0 up
[07:55] <tylerofl> is this a hardware problem?
[07:55] <Ashtonian> Does anyone know of a program like Skype for linux that can connect and talk to Skype users?
[07:55] <redblades> Basically, I'm working on a script that will sortout all the installation of shockwave/mp3/DVD  etc.
[07:55] <blocky> thanks guys
[07:55] <tylerofl> not a hardware-software conflict?
[07:55] <Hobbsee> Ashtonian: skype works on linux..
[07:55] <thoreauputic> Ashtonian: yes, it's called skype :)
[07:55] <matthewmystar17> Drac|Mac: do you know if yaboot has to be installed on a specific hd or does it not matter?
[07:55] <lightstar> Ashtonian, skype??
[07:55] <Ashtonian> yes, but it's very crappy
[07:56] <mooseman447> ashtonian good luck with audio though ;)
[07:56] <Ashtonian> for linux
[07:56] <nekostar> redblades, zenity+bash?
[07:56] <Lynoure> Ashtonian: Complain to Skype about that
[07:56] <Drac|Mac> matthewmystar17, I would imagine that it would need to be on the primary master.
[07:56] <Ashtonian> I was looking for an open source alternative
[07:56] <Mordak> what does the following error mean: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386/scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 11: gcc: command not found
[07:56] <Mordak> and how can i fix it
[07:56] <lightstar> Mordak, you need to install gcc
[07:56] <thoreauputic> !b-e
[07:56] <ubotu> or if you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, or get "make: command not found, then you need to do a    sudo apt-get install build-essential.
[07:56] <bimberi> Mordak: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[07:56] <mooseman447> man i cant pry this beast benq open
[07:56] <redblades> It's mostly like a batch file, with a few file manipulaTINS
[07:56] <blocky> can i ask a question
[07:56] <blocky> how many of you autoupdate daily
[07:57] <Drac|Mac> The build-essential package should include more essentials. :P
[07:57] <nekostar> matthewmystar17, yaboot?
[07:57] <Lynoure> Ashtonian: They haven't been providing spects to the open source community, so we have to do with their software when trying to talk to their users... There are other VOIP software out there, though, though I haven't had much luck with Wengo
[07:57] <thoreauputic> blocky: lots of us probably
[07:57] <nekostar> Mordak,
[07:57] <Mordak> yes
[07:57] <genaus> how install opera? ubuntu 6.06
[07:57] <nickrud> blocky, I never autoupdate, I monitor them
[07:57] <nekostar> sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc-3.4 gcc-4.0
[07:57] <nekostar> i think
[07:57] <thoreauputic> !opera
[07:57] <ubotu> download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ (breezy) or http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/Weekly-284/intel-linux/ (dapper) to install see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[07:57] <Ashtonian> Lynoure: it's a shame
[07:57] <Mordak> i used bimberi's
[07:58] <Mordak> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[07:58] <matthewmystar17> nekostar: PowerPC equivalent of grub
[07:58] <blocky> what happens if you compile your own kernel
[07:58] <bimberi> Mordak: onya :)
[07:58] <Mordak> :)
[07:58] <Mordak> ty
[07:58] <blocky> will it try to update it anyway?
[07:58] <nekostar> oic matthewmystar17 coo
[07:58] <Lynoure> Ashtonian: Let them know that. Maybe they will eventually change their minds.
[07:58] <redblades> But there is one major drawback! Becasue of where they live (my mother and step father) they use Dialup, and have...
[07:58] <redblades> A WinModom!
[07:58] <Drac|Mac> So... The Gamecube is a PPC chip. I'd love to see somebody work it to run Linux.
[07:58] <nickrud> blocky, not if you do it right. kernel-package is the tool, but it's a tool that should get rusty
[07:58] <xanavim> Drac|Mac: it already does
[07:58] <blocky> lol
[07:59] <Ashtonian> Lynoure: good idea
[07:59] <nekostar> Drac|Mac, how about gamecube+macos10
[07:59] <Drac|Mac> xanavim, I know, but I mean an unlicensed distro.
[07:59] <nekostar> lol
[07:59] <Drac|Mac> err
[07:59] <molinero> !instalation
[07:59] <Drac|Mac> GNU licensed.
[07:59] <ubotu> molinero: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:59] <Drac|Mac> :P
[07:59] <nickrud> redblades, do them a favor and give dad an external for fathers day. Oh, too late.
[07:59] <Drac|Mac> unlicensed would be bad.
[07:59] <tylerofl> ubuntu keeps crashing randomly. and it really is random. well, the only program that's been open commonly during each crash is GAIM, but i don't think GAIM's the problem. i'm not asking for an answer to the problem, because if could be a billion things. i just want to know a way i could find out
[07:59] <redblades> Now, rather than mess around with a WinModem
[07:59] <redblades> nickrud, exactly my plan, I was going to ask about tha
[07:59] <nekostar> tylerofl, /var/log/
[07:59] <blocky> on a related note, does anyone know a good custom kernel that performs faster than the vanilla and con kolivas
[07:59] <nekostar> stuff in there look around :/
[08:00] <tylerofl> i will do that
[08:00] <redblades> nickrud, I never set one up, my dad did it all last time (I was 8)
[08:00] <nickrud> redblades, the only way to go, really. No modem manufacturer writes free drivers
[08:00] <redblades> Yeehaw!
[08:00] <nickrud> redblades, plug it in, then run sudo pppconfig
[08:00] <redblades> It's fairly simple?
[08:00] <nickrud> yes
[08:01] <Drac|Mac> blocky, yeah. It's called your own. Kernels are pretty easy to make. You just do make menuconfig and such, then do some kpkg stuff...
[08:01] <blocky> thats what i meant
[08:01] <blocky> but ck kernel has latency patches etc
[08:01] <blocky> i just want better desktop responsiveness
[08:01] <Drac|Mac> Hmm... I dunno.
[08:01] <blocky> do you have any speed suggestions in menuconfig?
[08:02] <Drac|Mac> blocky, don't compile what you don't need? :)
[08:02] <blocky> lol
[08:02] <tritium> blocky: ubuntu's default kernels include the latency patches, except for the server kernel images
[08:02] <nekostar> anyone recommend a package for learning perl // c ?
[08:03] <tylerofl> nekostar: would you happen to know specifically which file would have information about the crash?
[08:03] <redblades> nickrud, wait, so do I need a driver for an extenal modem?
[08:03] <blocky> maybe its gnome
[08:03] <blocky> i think im gonna compile e17
[08:03] <nekostar> tylerofl, no not offhand
[08:03] <thoreauputic> redblades: no
[08:03] <xanavim> blocky: I get snappy desktop responsiveness with fluxbox as a window manager
[08:03] <redblades> So cool
[08:03] <blocky> fluxbox is nice
[08:03] <redblades> I believe there is a 56k one around the house...
[08:03] <thoreauputic> redblades: assuming its an external serial modem
[08:03] <nickrud> redblades, no driver needed. That's the beauty. Also, it seems that ubuntu has added a graphical ppp configurator under System->Admin->Networking
[08:03] <redblades> fluxbox is nice, but I didn't like it ass much as gnome
[08:04] <blocky> having a taskbar is very handy
[08:04] <Remy> hey guys, anyone gotten an iriver h10 working on ubuntu ?
[08:04] <Remy> !iriver
[08:04] <ubotu> Remy: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:04] <thoreauputic> nickrud: pppconfig still works better - the graphical tool produces very slow connections, or did with hoary and breezy anyway
[08:04] <tritium> Remy: apt-cache search iriver
[08:04] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, have you fallen asleep?
[08:04] <redblades> Oh! It seems I have an internal modem!
[08:04] <redblades> How odd...
[08:04] <nickrud> thoreauputic, I was wondering about that.
[08:05] <tritium> Remy: there's a package called easyh10 in universe
[08:05] <redblades> Conexant HSF 56k HSFi Modem
[08:05] <pppoe_dude> i have a text file with a list of paths to files, how can I use that file to 'cksum' all the files in that list?
[08:05] <nickrud> redblades, that'll do 14.4k , you have to pay for faster
[08:05] <xadhatter> what is a good music manager, have played with rhythm box, dont really like it, trying out banshee right now, any other ideas?
[08:05] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: nope, at work
[08:05] <thoreauputic> redblades: there are conexant drivers, but they cost money :)
[08:05] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, Ah.
[08:05] <tritium> crimsun: you're sure burning the midight oil ;)
[08:05] <Remy> thanks tritium
[08:05] <tritium> midnight even
[08:05] <redblades> I don't actually use it
[08:05] <gavagai> Sjoerd-, did that work out for you, or did you find another solution?
[08:05] <mooseman447> woot i got the drive up with a motor shaft of a toy boat i made in 7th grade
[08:05] <tritium> Remy: sure.  found it?
[08:05] <crimsun> tritium: flying everywhere this week except for Paris :/
[08:06] <redblades> It's just in there...
[08:06] <Hoxzer> Guys guys guys
[08:06] <thoreauputic> xadhatter: quodlibet
[08:06] <Drac|Mac> I thought there was a ctcp time...
[08:06] <tritium> crimsun: hope your wings don't get too tired ;)
[08:06] <redblades> I don't think I noticed it when I was in there last Thursday
[08:06] <Lynoure> Ashtonian: The project used to called gnomemeeting is quite ok, I have been told, but as I'm in KDE nowadays, I haven't tried it in it's current state. But one cannot reach skype users with that either, for the reasons stated above
[08:06] <crimsun> tritium: :)
[08:06] <Remy> tritium - prog called easyh10, looks just about right :)
[08:06] <PapaPitufo> confutatis
[08:06] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: can you use oss-only audio apps now?
[08:06] <PapaPitufo> maledictus
[08:06] <tritium> Remy: right :)
[08:06] <YondaII> I have a file server running ubuntu, would it be best to take out hardware that isnt required- eg. floppy disk drive - would that save any power consumption?
[08:06] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: they'll probably barf due to the lack of mixer
[08:07] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, let me try XMMS through OSS.
[08:07] <tritium> YondaII: a little bit
[08:07] <Ashtonian> Lynoure: lol i'll be sure to mention one if I find one.
[08:07] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, kaboom.
[08:07] <redblades> My mum is a little nervous, but I'm telling her all the benefits (not that there are any downsides, just perception)
[08:07] <Ashtonian> Lynoure: I just don't have any friends that don't use skype
[08:07] <YondaII> tritium, so would it be worth it, in your opinion to remove the floppy disk drive, cd drive, modem?
[08:08] <Ashtonian> heh, let alone Linux
[08:08] <nickrud> over a several year period, save a few bucks, maybe
[08:08] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: does xmms work through alsa if you use the software volume control?
[08:08] <tritium> YondaII: it would be minimal savings, as nickrud suggests
[08:08] <redblades> I'm holding off using skype because of the proprietry
[08:08] <Drac|Mac> Yonda, those things only use power when they're actually doing something.
[08:08] <Drac|Mac> YondaII, ^^^
[08:08] <redblades> Wait, that's not spelt right...
[08:09] <Ashtonian> yeah ekiga looks nice
[08:09] <tritium> Drac|Mac: they still draw a small current when idle
[08:09] <YondaII> ah ok
[08:09] <Drac|Mac> tritium, nothing significant, though...
[08:09] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, Nope.
[08:09] <tritium> Drac|Mac: as I said earlier
[08:10] <redblades> I have a rather off topic question. Does anyone here like Fatboy Slim? if so, have they heard "that old pair of jeans"?
[08:10] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: right, mixer issue. I don't know the ppc hardware, so I don't think I can help atm
[08:10] <Yonda> One more thing....I have an old hard drive in a defunked laptop...Is there any way to connect that a PC
[08:10] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, it worked fine in Breezy and in an upgrade to Dapper... This really bothers me.
[08:10] <Remy> is there an equivalent of Visual Basic for linux?  I'm tempted to try to build a gui for easyh10...
[08:10] <Remy> :P
[08:11] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: err, this is or isn't a clean Dapper install?
[08:11] <Drac|Mac> Remy, um... why.... why would you want that?
[08:11] <abdula> hallo kann mir jemand helfen. muss die datei etc/hosts verndern hab aber keinen zugriff darauf
[08:11] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, this is. It wasn't before, and that's when it worked. Clean doesn't work

[08:11] <tritium> hey Hobbsee
[08:12] <Hobbsee> hey tritium
[08:12] <abdula> how to change something in the file etc hosts
[08:12] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, "0 snd_powermac"
[08:12] <redblades> Remy, Gambas
[08:12] <Mordak> i just installed ndiswrapper... can anyone tell me how to uninstall it?
[08:12] <clcxxxx> ls
[08:12] <Remy> Drac|Mac - why would I want what ?
[08:13] <bimberi> abdula: gksudo "gedit /etc/hosts"
[08:13] <mooseman447> uh no smells that drive is burning
[08:13] <mooseman447> that cant be a good sign
[08:13] <Drac|Mac> Remy, anything remotely similar to Visual Basic. :P
[08:13] <redblades> No
[08:13] <Remy> Drac|Mac - Because it's damn easy and fast to implement stuff with :)
[08:13] <redblades> Remy, if you must, (Though I suggest you use a REAL language) Gambas
[08:14] <Drac|Mac> Remy, I think I'm confusing it with something more like FrontPage. Sorry. :P
[08:14] <abdula> it doesnt work
[08:14] <abdula>  unable to lookup enemy via gethostbyname()
[08:14] <Remy> redblades - If there are any easy + fast ways to build gui's with anything else I'd be up for it...
[08:14] <Remy> Drac|Mac  :-)
[08:14] <Mordak> what does the command rmmod do?
[08:14] <redblades> GAMBAS!
[08:14] <tritium> Remy: you might consider learning python instead
[08:15] <zybrid> Mordak: man rmmod
[08:15] <redblades> Drac|Mac, You're right. I used to usse Visual Basic
[08:15] <bimberi> Remy: more and more of the ubuntu gui interfaces are written using python + gtk2 + glade
[08:15] <Mordak> ?
[08:15] <Mordak> zybrid: ?
[08:15] <Remy> tritium - I'm quite familiar with perl allready... might lookd into python.
[08:15] <humbraro> Remy: you can use a shell script
[08:15] <Remy> bimberi - I take it glade is a gui builder?
[08:15] <redblades> Drac|Mac, It's awful once you've used other languages
[08:15] <zybrid> Mordak: type it.
[08:15] <Remy> humbraro - ever tried to build a GUI via shell ?
[08:15] <zybrid> Mordak: for the rmmod manual.
[08:15] <chilaquil> Hi guys I'm trying to install the driver for an HP PSC-2400 all in one printer. I'm using the Printer Install Wizard, but when click on Install Driver it takes me to another window that says Select a PPD File but I don'nt know where to find those PPD Files, any sugestions?
[08:16] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: are you using 2.6.15-25 ?
[08:16] <redblades> Remy, WAIT! You can build GUI's for C++ (Ijust forget the program)
[08:16] <Mordak> ok
[08:16] <thoreauputic> Remy: I have - I used Xdialog
[08:16] <humbraro> Remy: yup, can't remember the name of the package atm, gimme  a minute
[08:16] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, No.
[08:16] <bimberi> Remy: "GTK+ 2 User Interface Builder"
[08:17] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: did the dapper dist-upgrade use 2.6.15-25 ?
[08:17] <redblades> Also, I'm trying to get DDclient working, but I can't remember where the config file is hiding
[08:17] <Remy> i'll install glade and xdialog...  see what I do over the holidays :D
[08:17] <bimberi> Remy: have fun :)
[08:18] <bobstro> is ubuntuguide.org best info for configuring xgl & compiz?

[08:19] <humbraro> redblades: /etc/ddclient.conf?
[08:19] <redblades> That's the one. thanks
[08:20] <Drac|Mac> crimsun, I'm not sure about that.
[08:20] <crimsun> Drac|Mac: mind upgrading to 2.6.15-25?
[08:20] <nickrud> chilaquil, is there any reason you don't use the psc2400 driver that comes with ubuntu?
[08:20] <bimberi> nickrud: :)
[08:21] <redblades> humbraro, I'm behind a router, so how do I get ddclient to report my actual IP?
[08:21] <nickrud> bimberi, I'm in a mellow mood tonight ;)
[08:21] <humbraro> Remy: check out zenity - it builds gtk windows and widgets
[08:22] <bimberi> lol
[08:22] <Remy> humbraro - will do
[08:22] <humbraro> redblades: here's my line to get the ip:
[08:22] <chilaquil> nickrud: I'm trying to scan documents, but it doesn't seem to scan, it just prints that's it.
[08:22] <humbraro> redblades: use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.org:80, web-skip='IP Address:'
[08:22] <Plug> Has Dapper changed to using a framebuffer console?
[08:23] <redblades> exactly that?
[08:23] <Plug> The console font has definitely changed.
[08:23] <humbraro> redblades: well, it works for me with *my* router
[08:23] <Plug> My LCD screen is only displaying the middle 22 lines.
[08:24] <redblades> hubraro, okay thabks, I'll try that
[08:24] <humbraro> redblades: cool, just remember to restart the ddclient service
[08:24] <redblades> I know it's terrible, but I don't use Gnome-Terminal
[08:24] <Locke_> whats a good p2p prog for linux
[08:24] <redblades> Uhh.. how do I restart?
[08:24] <Locke_> aMule isnt doing a thing for me
[08:24] <redblades> Locke_Forstwire/Limewire
[08:25] <redblades> Frostwire
[08:25] <wulax> Locke_: Linux DC++ is rather nice
[08:25] <humbraro> redblades: sudo /etc/init.d/ddclient restart
[08:25] <redblades> cool
[08:25] <nickrud> chilaquil, a different issue from the ppd then
[08:26] <redblades> humbraro, does it up date instantly?
[08:26] <redblades> It still seem to be having issues
[08:28] <chilaquil> nickrud: probably, and I don't even know where those PPD files are in my computer.
[08:28] <mnemone> hmm, hi, i'm new to ubuntu, i would like to run a program as a different user account with access to this users display, when i su - to the user, export DISPLAY=:0 and the run it, i get Xlib: No protocol specified.
[08:28] <mnemone> I've never seen this before
[08:29] <nickrud> chilaquil, ppd files define the printing, not the scanning. hpoj runs that, and I'd look to the hp website for info on supported scanning and issues for a 2400
[08:29] <humbraro> redblades: good question.... I have a line in my conf that says "daemon=3600" - that might be a timer
[08:30] <dalphi> mnemone: you could ssh to localhost and run it.
[08:30] <redblades> Sorry, what is the "Web skip" part for?
[08:30] <nickrud> chilaquil, have you tried using xsane? (possible dumb question)
[08:32] <humbraro> redblades: sorry, i'm not an expert on it, just hacked away at the config until i got it working right...that was about 6 months ago
[08:32] <bulltitan> hey wassup
[08:32] <bulltitan> i've been sober for a month now!!! :) even with some of the heavy games i used to play in win i don't feel the need to go back just for that
[08:32] <humbraro> redblades: so, try a "man ddclient" for more info than I could ever give ya
[08:32] <redblades> Aj
[08:32] <redblades> Ah
[08:32] <redblades> :-D
[08:33] <bulltitan> now i'm drugged with stellarium and celestia instead
[08:33] <Madpilot> bulltitan, "sober" = "Windows free"? ;)
[08:33] <bulltitan> yep
[08:34] <Madpilot> cool - congrats
[08:34] <humbraro> redblades: one thing though:  dont' set it to update too often, or the dyndns site will ban you for abuse
[08:34] <AlienX> stellarium rocks!
[08:35] <DarkMageZ> is there an easy way to reset the permissions for everything in my account to how it should be?, i saw that read access was enabled to "others" and decided to fix/break it...
[08:35] <bulltitan> ubuntu has what it takes to make a windows user become intelligent i agree it still need to be polished but so far is great
[08:36] <bulltitan> no offence win users just a joke ;)
[08:37] <sneex> computers are like air conditioners?  they stop working right when you open windows?
[08:37] <sneex> ???
[08:37] <sneex> i dont get it
[08:37] <bulltitan> lol
[08:37] <DarkMageZ> windows as the operating system
[08:37] <humbraro> DarkMageZ: try 'chown -R u+rwx /home/me'
[08:38] <bulltitan> that one was nice
[08:38] <sneex> =)
[08:38] <humbraro> sneex: good one
[08:38] <sirex> is it possible to turn off line wraping in less pager?
[08:39] <asdx> hi i'm on ubuntu and i need to program in C, what do i need, i have gcc installed
[08:39] <humbraro> tell you what though, windoze servers take quite a bit of talent to maintain correctly though
[08:39] <DarkMageZ> humbraro, that spits out "chown: `u+rwx': invalid user" should it be chmod instead?
[08:39] <sneex> asdx, apt-cache search base | grep compile
[08:39] <humbraro> DarkMageZ: ya, chmod is right...brain far there
[08:40] <humbraro> s/far/fart
[08:40] <xanavim> DarkMageZ: chown needs a username, chmod can be number or u+rwx etc.
[08:40] <nickrud> my god, I'd forgotten just how big less's man page is
[08:41] <sirex> in man page of less even no words liek 'wrap'
[08:41] <bimberi> asdx: installing build-essential will also bring in the standard libraries
[08:41] <DarkMageZ> humbraro, nice, now i've just gotta figure out exactly how that command works
[08:41] <humbraro> hey, if someone wants to code in linux, does that mean we should start a vi vs. emacs flame war?
[08:42] <harry> does GAIM able to view a webcam??
[08:42] <DarkMageZ> please no vi vs emacs flame wars, they should have alook @ both tools and see which works best for them
[08:42] <thoreauputic> ed! ed is the editor! ma ed!
[08:43] <Madpilot> humbraro, no, because nano is better than either ;)
[08:43] <humbraro> hehe
[08:43] <nickrud> sirex, less -S <file> , left & right arrow to scroll
[08:43] <humbraro> i used to use nano, til i found jed
[08:43] <_smd_> happy 20062006 everyone
[08:44] <nickrud> sirex, they call it chop for some reason
[08:44] <harry> does GAIM able to view a webcam??
[08:44] <bulltitan> can you please point me in the right direction for dvd configuration more over about zone config and apps?
[08:44] <sneex> _smd_, it will only happen once this year =)
[08:44] <_smd_> harry: I have never got webcams to work in gaim, but if someone can tell me i would be for ever happy
[08:44] <bulltitan> by you i mean anyone :P
[08:44] <redblades> harry, go to the gaim site
[08:44] <sirex> yeah it works.. :)
[08:44] <sirex> thanks nickrud
[08:45] <harry> redblade: whats the url??
[08:45] <humbraro> harry: check out http://sourceforge.net/projects/gaim-vv/
[08:45] <nickrud> sirex, looking at that every character is mapped to an action man page was worth it ;)
[08:45] <redblades> harry: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/
[08:46] <bulltitan> i just need to get my dvd working and if it is possible without any zone changes,... ever
[08:46] <mooseman089> humbraro does that work on the windows gaim?
[08:46] <redblades> bulltitan, what's wrong with it?
[08:46] <_smd_> humbraro: thanks I will look at that
[08:46] <humbraro> mooseman089: dunno, don't use gaim with a webcam, or on windows
[08:46] <bulltitan> well remember those drives with only 5 zone changes?
[08:46] <wulax> bulltitan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-d914c1cdbbb83fed8e055ee5525a178730a9823b
[08:46] <bulltitan> i have one of those :P
[08:46] <bulltitan> thanks wulax
[08:47] <redblades> I've never had any DVD troubles after I followed the instructions on the ubuntu site.
[08:47] <Hoxzer> wulax: why is that page https :o
[08:47] <mooseman089> ok i use my windows box mostly for IMing with gaim so that would be very useful
[08:47] <redblades> bulltitan, Oh
[08:47] <bulltitan> i'll try to do that redblades
[08:47] <redblades> Okay
[08:48] <Kazuki> Hey i have the ubuntu 64 bit install disc i ran that and did a server
[08:48] <Kazuki>           install, after that was finished i changed my sources to dapper and
[08:48] <Kazuki>           universe and did a apt-get update -> dist-upgrade i got dapper now
[08:48] <Kazuki>           and all the xubuntu-desktop stuff but when i type startx or anything
[08:48] <Kazuki>           my monitor goes into sleep mode like it stoped reciving signels. i
[08:48] <Kazuki> sorry about that
[08:48] <wulax> Hoxzer: so the feds will have a harder time getting to users of illegal dvd encoders
[08:48] <wulax> Hoxzer: :)
[08:48] <bulltitan> let's see if napoleon dynamite works :P
[08:48] <nickrud> Kazuki, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:49] <Kazuki> i did
[08:49] <nickrud> ati?
[08:49] <Kazuki> i changed my drivers to vesa too
[08:49] <Kazuki> yesa  x800
[08:49] <redblades> I hate when the xserver goes wrong
[08:49] <redblades> It's a bastard to fix. Or so I've found in my experience
[08:49] <nickrud> vesa should do something, what does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say?
[08:49] <Hoxzer> wulax: that should not be illegal imho
[08:49] <bulltitan> sht it works! see you later,... movie date! :D
[08:49] <buggzero> whats a good rss app
[08:49] <Kazuki> nickrud one sec
[08:50] <humbraro> redblades: amen to that - X should have some fallback mode
[08:50] <redblades> I agree
[08:50] <Hoxzer> wulax: I'm forced to use that in my HTPC since there is no other way to play commercial DVD's on it
[08:50] <_smd_> napoleon dynamit.... nice date movie....
[08:50] <redblades> I'm okay at the CL, but it can get scary
[08:50] <redblades> It's an awesome movie
[08:50] <humbraro> redblades: thats one thing that windows got right, was the lo-res safe mode option
[08:50] <nickrud> _smd_, you listen to the wrong advisers
[08:50] <wulax> wulax: yeah, but apperantly it's illegal in the US. luckily i don't live there
[08:50] <wulax> Hoxzer yeah, but apperantly it's illegal in the US. luckily i don't live there
[08:51] <redblades> "Do you want to look like this?" "That's a girl"
[08:51] <Hoxzer> wulax: :o oh
[08:51] <Hoxzer> wulax:  ;) but I love my htpc ;) mythtv on it
[08:51] <_smd_> nickrud: haha i am my own adviser in date movies and that is not one
[08:51] <redblades> MythTV?
[08:51] <redblades> Cool
[08:51] <redblades> : )

[08:52] <buggzero> \m/
[08:52] <Mordak> thoreauputic: that wont uninstall ndiswrapper though will it?
[08:52] <thoreauputic> Mordak: that removes the module
[08:52] <Mordak> ok
[08:53] <Kazuki> nickrud: Says its having trouble opening /dev/wacom
[08:53] <thoreauputic> Mordak: you might need to blacklist the module - I don't know
[08:53] <T> hi
[08:53] <nickrud> Kazuki, that's ok, look more towards the bottom, the last errors
[08:53] <T> i have a problem installing ut2k4 could please someone help me?
[08:54] <Kazuki> nickrud: says the wacom thing like 4 times and then gets cutoff it looks like
[08:54] <pppoe_dude> so once i resize a partition and e2fsck is fine, then i shouldnt have any problems later on right?
[08:54] <pc22> anyone is there any guide how to setup ftpserver?
[08:55] <nickrud> Kazuki, that's odd, I have wacom defined in my xorg and don't have one, it's not an issue really. Could you put your log on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[08:56] <nickrud> pppoe_dude, you're pretty much done. A done deal

[09:03] <buggzero> are you sure
[09:04] <nickrud> Kazuki, I don't know much at all about ati, but I see two screens defined, but only one monitor used. Is it the wrong monitor?
[09:04] <mprasodjo> driver for sas is modules. so when it try to finishing the installation, it can not detect the adaptec scsi card
[09:05] <mprasodjo> is there any trick for installation that fully support all scsi driver ?
[09:05] <nickrud> Kazuki, you caught me just as I was about turn off. That last bit was a throwaway, don't spend a lot of time with it.
[09:05] <Mordak> has anyone used cab extract before?

[09:06] <wulax> pc22: no, i like ssh better
[09:06] <wulax> pc22: but i have tried ftp before
[09:06] <buggzero> whats so hot about python
[09:07] <redblades> So, one more time, just to be sure. To use the external modem, all I need is to plug it in and... ?
[09:07] <ubuntu_> hi
[09:07] <buggzero> hi
[09:07] <ubuntu_> How can i setup the linksys PCMCIA wirless card?
[09:07] <Hobbsee> !wifi
[09:07] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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
[09:08] <Hobbsee> ubuntu_: ^
[09:08] <ubuntu_> it is not detected in my laptop
[09:10] <Kazuki> nickrud: nvm that is wrong xorg lol i thought i was sshed in but i wasnt
[09:11] <SVisor> Argh who can I yell at. torent of 6.06 iso stalled at 99.79% and wont recover.
[09:12] <polpak> SVisor: I had that problem also
[09:12] <polpak> SVisor: no idea why
[09:12] <SVisor> ftp it only solution?

[09:17] <buggzero> how can i revert my XMODMAP
[09:17] <buggzero> its all edgily effed up
[09:17] <polpak> SVisor: nope, I dled from one of the http servers
[09:17] <Arafangi1n> ubotu: Are you better than Cylon?
[09:18] <ubotu> I know nothing about are you better than cylon?
[09:18] <kinema> is it possible to setup an "anonymous nfs share"?  what I'm looking for is something similar to an anonymous ftp server/share but via NFS.
[09:18] <Arafangi1n> ubotu: You are _not_ "all-knowing", then.
[09:18] <ubotu> I know nothing about you are _not_ "all-knowing", then.
[09:18] <SVisor> neutrinomass: Not my fix, found it on the net. (so its already there). but basically:
[09:18] <Arafangi1n> ubotu: Indeed
[09:18] <ubotu> I know nothing about indeed

[09:19] <buggzero> please tell me your joking araf
[09:19] <Arafangi1n> buggzero: I never joke.
[09:19] <kinema> so i guess what i'm looking for is a read-only nfs share.  something where the server couldn't careless about the client's credentials.  where it's read-only no matter who you are.
[09:19] <neutrinomass> SVisor: Hm... it seems that it was just a fix in acpi-support (i.e. that your machine can hibernate but is not known to )
[09:20] <buggzero> aragangiln: then you need a drink
[09:20] <burepe2> k
[09:20] <neutrinomass> SVisor:  I don't know much about hibernating, but I would file the bug here: http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+filebug
[09:20] <Mordak> im getting the following error after using sudo modprobe ndiswrapper: FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386/misc/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid argument

[09:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about rt2570
[09:20] <Mordak> any idea what it means or how to fix it?
[09:21] <SVisor> neutrinomass: Funny on 5.10 it worked alright. Well Ill create an account and file it.
[09:24] <neutrinomass> SVisor: Lots of stuff changes, so often something breaks. But unless people point it out, it won't be fixed :)

[09:29] <SurfnKid> how can you change irssi's colors

[09:33] <nich0s> I don't suppose that anyone would be able to help me install a Intel IPW-3945 Wireless card?
[09:38] <knubbe> is it possible to set a DNS when i use static IP in my /etc/network/interfaces ?
[09:38] <Lynoure> knubbe: yep, there is /etc/resolv.conf

[09:40] <jammer> Hi to all!
[09:40] <SurfnKid> knubbe: i use name servers in interfaces. but have really no effect because resolv.conf takes care of most of the resolving
[09:41] <someothernick> !nvidia
[09:41] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:43] <knubbe> SurfnKid: ok, i modified my resolv.conf and now it works
[09:43] <jammer> Someone can Help me to install hauppage drivers for video4linux under dapper?

[09:44] <SurfnKid> goin to sleep nite
[09:44] <Yonda> If I want to have a shared network folder that the computers on a network can all access -some being ubuntu and others being windows, do I use Samba or Nsf?

[09:45] <dershodan> hi everyone
[09:45] <mooseman447> how do you reenable root in ubuntu?
[09:45] <ccooke> mooseman447: set a password for the root user. 'sudo passwd'
[09:45] <mooseman447> i just installed a new system
[09:45] <ccooke> mooseman447: that's all.
[09:45] <dershodan> do any of you know a program that can download the photos from a Motorola Razr Mobile?
[09:45] <mooseman447> ok cool
[09:46] <mooseman447> whoa 92 updates already?
[09:46] <Madpilot> mooseman447, why do you need root active? Ubuntu is set up to not need it...
[09:46] <mooseman447> i just like the feeling of having root ;)
[09:46] <knubbe> SurfnKid: thanks
[09:46] <mooseman447> why not have root?
[09:47] <dershodan> danger
[09:47] <dershodan> :)
[09:47] <mooseman447> of?
[09:47] <jammer> Sorry
[09:47] <Lynoure> mooseman447: or more like the risk of making mistakes.
[09:47] <jammer> my connection was broken
[09:47] <dershodan> hey guys dont you know any software that can connect to my mobile phone via usb?
[09:47] <mooseman447> ok
[09:47] <floppyears> hi
[09:48] <jammer> may I resubmit the same question?
[09:48] <floppyears> is there an ubuntu version for spanish ?
[09:48] <dershodan> of viruses ... others that might use the computer
[09:48] <Lynoure> There are some dangers to how things are set up now, so security is not the point, I assume, but safety is.
[09:48] <xBONESstyle> Speaking of USB... anyone know how to get a USB stick to mount on Ubuntu?
[09:48] <onispawn> dershodan: I dont know of any for linux, but I know there are the motorola phone tools available for windows. I think they sell it for $10 or $20
[09:48] <floppyears> I know english, and I can use the english installer, but my friend knows only spanish
[09:48] <Madpilot> mooseman447, it really isn't needed - have a look at help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[09:48] <floppyears> is there an ubuntu version in spanish ?
[09:48] <Lynoure> dershodan: Actually, when it comes to viruses and malware, having full sudo is about as bad
[09:48] <gavagai> mooseman447, one thing wrong with root is that you can leave a terminal window open indefinately with root privileges
[09:49] <jammer> Someone can hel me to install hauppage WINTV-PVR pci card drivers under video4linux (dapper)?
[09:49] <mooseman447> yea but one of the first things i do is set the screensaver to need a login and it goes off after like 4 minutes
[09:49] <gavagai> and then come back to it and enter some stupid command, probably chmod -R, and screw up a bunch of stuff
[09:49] <dershodan> onispawn: thanks but that was delivered with the phone for windows... however i dont want to use windows any more
[09:49] <gavagai> mooseman447, OMG, you mean logging into GUI as root?  that has even more wrong with it.
[09:49] <Lynoure> dershodan: and Recovery boot from grub menu gives one root very easily :) But sudo reduces the risk of rm -rf as the wrong user, for example :)
[09:49] <mooseman447> you can login into the gui as root?
[09:50] <gavagai> primarily being it is a pain in the butt logging into/out of the gui, you can faster start a single gui app as root from a terminal
[09:50] <mooseman447> lol i didnt even know that
[09:50] <dershodan> mooseman447: no
[09:50] <dershodan> mooseman447: logging into x as root is insane ;P
[09:50] <mooseman447> haha yea even i wouldnt do that
[09:50] <SVisor> any user can login to GUI, including root. As long as the user has password.
[09:50] <gavagai> so the screensaver is irrelevant
[09:51] <gavagai> won't protect you from yourself anyway
[09:51] <ubuntu_> hi
[09:51] <mooseman447> yea not from me but from the 7th grader but he wouldnt darn touch my computers because i fix his 10 times a day.......
[09:51] <hintswen> hey, my ubuntu computer's screen resolution has been set to 600x800 and i can't change it
[09:51] <SVisor> Most (at least SuSE, Redhat) will turn your desktop red to warn you when you login as root.
[09:52] <YondaII> If I want to have a shared network folder that the computers on a network can all access -some being ubuntu and others being windows, do I use Samba or NFS?
[09:52] <hintswen> 640x480 actually
[09:52] <SVisor> YondaII: I would use Samba, easier to set up for Windows
[09:52] <xBONESstyle> Anyone know how to mount a USB stick?
[09:52] <dershodan> hintswen: mintswen System -> preferences -> screen resolution gives no options?
[09:52] <mooseman447> yea samba rocks
[09:53] <YondaII> SVisor, so Samba can be used for linux as well?
[09:53] <hintswen> yeah, it gives no options
[09:53] <SVisor> YondaII: Oh yes, works automatically
[09:53] <Hoxzer> Samba is dance :((
[09:53] <mooseman447> OMG its 4am?!
[09:53] <YondaII> SVisor Thanks
[09:53] <mooseman447> lol man i lost track of time
[09:53] <Hoxzer> OMG it is 10:56 AM
[09:53] <Hoxzer> WTF
[09:54] <mooseman447> i think i need to get some sleep haha im going to regret this umm later in the day ;)
[09:54] <mooseman447> cya
[09:54] <dershodan> hintswen: i had the same problem yesterday... hold on ill try to find the tutorial again (including the danger of damaging your hardware, but it worked fine for me)

[09:56] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[09:56] <mooseman447> why doesnt update send the dhcp name by default?
[09:57] <guillem101> Hello. I'm planning to by a widescreen LCD monitor that does 1680x1050. May I have problems specifying that resolution (nvidia drivers) or I can safely buy the thing?
[09:57] <mooseman447> http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/02/06/fix-hostname-unknown-in-router/
[09:57] <guillem101> (I'm used to play with xorg.conf but never specified such a weird resolution)
[09:57] <Arafangi1n> guillem101: Ask him if it works with the Linux NVidia drivers.
[09:57] <mooseman447> am i the only one that needs to do this every time
[09:58] <guillem101> Arafangi1n, I have not yet met him :-P
[09:58] <floppyears> does anybody know if there is an ubuntu version in spanish ?
[09:59] <floppyears> meaning all the programs and everything is in spanish
[09:59] <guillem101> floppyears, most of programs are translated to spanish
[09:59] <dershodan> anyone know a tool that can receive data from my mobile phone?
[09:59] <dershodan> like pictures and videos
[09:59] <Mordak> how do i start hotplugging on ubuntu 6.06
[09:59] <guillem101> floppyears, only make sure you install language-pack-es and specify spanish language at login options in GDM
[09:59] <tuskernini> hi there all, i have a question ... I had windows on this Gericom laptop and when I left it on for too long and then used it again... at some stage it said... hardware mailfunction... but with linux this does not happen... what could be the problem?
[10:00] <floppyears> guillem101: so if I choose spanish as my version during installation almost everything will be in spanish ?
[10:00] <neutrinomass> tuskernini: A bug in windows ?
[10:00] <guillem101> floppyears, sure
[10:00] <tuskernini> hehe...
[10:00] <floppyears> guillem101: I won't have an internet connection in the machiine where I will install it :(
[10:00] <Mordak> anyone know about hotplugging in ubuntu?
[10:00] <guillem101> floppyears, I've done in catalan, so in spanish should be even better
[10:00] <tuskernini> neutrinomass, possible, but that is not normal ... maby it does not like some of my hardware??
[10:00] <guillem101> floppyears, bad news
[10:01] <floppyears> ?
[10:01] <_nano_> Hi, what are the differences between ubuntu's firefox and the official one?
[10:01] <Mordak> thoreauputic: alive? :)
[10:01] <neutrinomass> tuskernini: Not sure... this is a Linux support channel so it's normal that we're ignorant of Windows problems. Try Microsoft support ?
[10:01] <Lynoure> dershodan: Mobile phones are pretty non-standard... I don't know any Linux tools for them but I haven't really looked. Worth asking the seller/maker about it.
[10:01] <thoreauputic> Mordak: almost
[10:01] <wulax> floppyears: there is this http://www.guadalinex.org/modules/news/
[10:01] <guillem101> floppyears, I would strongly recommend to have a internet connection in order to install/setup ubuntu
[10:02] <Mordak> do you know anything about hotplugging in ubuntu?
[10:02] <Mordak> does it need to be turned on?
[10:02] <hintswen> wulax: do i have to reboot the system after i;ve gone through the config thing?
[10:02] <neutrinomass> Mordak: No, "out-of-the-box" using udev, not hotplug
[10:02] <dershodan> lynoure: good idea, ill have a look at the motorola page ;) thx
[10:02] <Mordak> what do you mean neutrinomass
[10:02] <thoreauputic> Mordak: not really - but I think hotplug has given way to udev/hal in dapper
[10:02] <floppyears> guillem101: I know, but these guys don't have internet :(
[10:02] <wulax> hintswen: no, you can press ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:02] <wulax> hintswen: that will restart x
[10:03] <Mordak> ok, thanks thoreauputic
[10:03] <wulax> hintswen: and all gui programs
[10:03] <hintswen> well it seems like it did nothing
[10:03] <tuskernini> neutrinomass, i know... was just asking, most of the people here, including me... started with windows and then moved to linux... i also use ubuntu, puppy etc... as main OS but i am building this pc for my father in law and he wants to use quicken on it!
[10:03] <mooseman447> wtf what is the file manager under?
[10:03] <neutrinomass> Mordak: You don't need to turn on anything... "hotplugging" devices will work (i.e. plugging in hardware and getting it automatically picked up) but not with the old "hotplug" mechanism but using udev (a techincal mattter )
[10:03] <wulax> hintswen: ok, well you can reboot too
[10:03] <hintswen> wulax: it didn't say anything when i pressed it
[10:03] <mooseman447> this is really weird  cant find it
[10:03] <guillem101> floppyears, perhaps you  could carry the machine where you have a internet connection, install there and return them the machine installed and configured...
[10:03] <Mordak> gotcha
[10:03] <floppyears> thanks wulax
[10:03] <Mordak> thanks neutrinomass
[10:03] <neutrinomass> tuskernini: Sorry, can't help :( Haven't used windows in many years...
[10:04] <xBONESstyle> Anyone know how to get a USB Stick to automount?
[10:04] <xBONESstyle> it's a kingston, i think it has debian support. but i can't seem to get Ubuntu to recognize it.
[10:04] <tuskernini> neutrinomass, thanx anyway.. take care
[10:04] <mooseman447> can somebody tell me real quick?
[10:04] <floppyears> guillem101: the problem is that my friend lives out of town, and I will be miles away from my internet connection, and moswt people don't have internet in that town, and the few who do is dial up
[10:04] <thoreauputic> xBONESstyle: try running dmesg | less after plugging it in
[10:04] <neutrinomass> tuskernini: Friendly note: You might want to try #ubuntu-offtopic which is not a support channel, but is more appropriate for Windows issues :) ("my hardware works with ubuntu" isn't exactly a problem :P )
[10:05] <neutrinomass> xBONESstyle: Are you using 6.06 (dapper) ?
[10:05] <_nano_> Could some one please visit www.blogger.com and let me know if their firefox is freezing in like 6-7 seconds?
[10:05] <xBONESstyle> neutrinomass, yeah I am
[10:05] <mooseman447> is it under applications, places or system?
[10:06] <neutrinomass> xBONESstyle: As thoreauputic suggested, try plugging it in and pastebinning (www.pastebin.com) the output of 'dmesg' ...
[10:06] <hintswen> wulax: thanks, it's working right now
[10:06] <wulax> hintswen: great :)
[10:06] <Lynoure> dershodan: there is startalk but that covers just maybe one phone Motorola StarTac, and works over serial :(
[10:07] <guillem101> floppyears, :-(
[10:07] <thoreauputic> xBONESstyle: or run " tail -f /var/log/syslog " then plug it in
[10:07] <hintswen> I'm guessing it's best to upgrade to new ubuntu versions when they come out right?
[10:07] <wy> any ideas about viewing CPU usage at a thread level ? I wish to see which thread of my process is using the most CPU
[10:08] <keith> Morning all
[10:08] <Semaphore> morning ..
[10:08] <neutrinomass> hintswen: If the old ones work for you and don't feel like changing, then no (if it ain't broken...) . Otherwise, yes, it's a good idea :)
[10:08] <xBONESstyle> brb
[10:08] <SVisor> _nano_: It slows down my computer so much at entry that I cant stay on it that long.
[10:08] <Semaphore> question, i get screwed visuals on my nx7010 (modelines ) i believe, but i cant seem to find correct mode lines for screen
[10:08] <_nano_> SVisor: precisely!!!
[10:09] <_nano_> SVisor: thank god! someone else has the same problem!
[10:09] <neutrinomass> wy: Is a real thread or a fork(). If it's a thread, you'll have to use a profiler ...
[10:09] <_nano_> SVisor: thank you thank you :)
[10:09] <guillem101> floppyears, I'm not 100% sure the spanish language pack comes in the ubuntu install CD. You may check it and see if all the programs they need are there... otherwise you may download all the SuSE CD's and do a install of it instead of ubuntu.
[10:09] <SVisor> _nano_: np
[10:09] <dershodan> Lynoure: thanks for helping me seek, but im on track of mybe something more ... sophisticated ;) ill inform you
[10:10] <_nano_> SVisor: so what could be the problem? it's like some site is being able to eat all of your computer's resources
[10:10] <hintswen> WOAH! i better leave the OS update for the morning when it's offpeak... 609MB lol
[10:10] <keith> Any of you guys got your linux servers authing against windows domains ?
[10:10] <guillem101> floppyears, IMHO SuSE is a good choice if you do not have an internet connection to apt-get and so on.
[10:10] <dershodan> Lynoure:  http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_mobile_phone,_Bluetooth_and_GNOME
[10:10] <_nano_> SVisor: i even tried the official version of firefox, it's the same problem
[10:10] <batte> whats the best dektop system monitor? ... the programm to view ram usage, ...
[10:11] <Semaphore> :\
[10:11] <SVisor> _nano_: When I get my desktop running Ill look into it (if I remember). It could be anything, but is probably javascript that keeps on loading something
[10:11] <wy> neutrinomass:  It's a pthead. What should I do?
[10:11] <Semaphore> radeons suck.
[10:11] <Arafangi1n> batte: top
[10:11] <Yonda> If I have a file server for just one small network, do I need WINS? WINS is just for multiple networks or something right?:S
[10:11] <Arafangi1n> batte: Though, gkrellm isn't too bad, it lacks detail, though.
[10:11] <batte> Arafangi1n:  it has to run on the desktop ... not console
[10:11] <_nano_> SVisor: ok thanks. though this problem is only on linux
[10:12] <batte> ty Arafangi1n
[10:12] <Arafangi1n> batte: Top can run on the desktop. I suggest rxvt or some other terminal emulator.
[10:12] <neutrinomass> wy: I can't quite remember exactly, it's a while since I did something using pthreads ... You want a profiler. People usually go with 'gprof' but I'm not sure if it can handle pthreads - try googling something like "profiling pthread","thread profiling" etc.
[10:12] <Lynoure> dershodan: Is the phone good, btw? I will need to get a new one soon (resigning and the company will keep this old nokia phone)
[10:12] <Arafangi1n> batte: top is textual, what's the point of makign it use graphics?
[10:12] <Arafangi1n> batte: Unless... You're interested in _graphing_.
[10:13] <xenex> when ubuntu is loading, the ubuntu splash logo is fine. but when i am shutting down my computer, the ubuntu splash logo is distorted. how can i fix this?
[10:13] <keith> Yonda, it will imrpove browsing of windows machines use it its easy to setup failing that use DNS  and use a real network... also do some reading
[10:13] <dershodan> Lynoure: hehe its ok, but i guess many mobiles are... however i took this because it was the best deal with the actual provider
[10:13] <Yonda> keith, thanks, ill read up some more
[10:14] <batte> Arafangi1n: ill look around ty
[10:16] <jeremychong> hi, need some help installing maple 9
[10:16] <Lynoure> dershodan: they just started allowing provider&phone tied deals here.
[10:17] <jeremychong> after running the installer i get this line: ./LinuxInstaller.bin: line 1515: /media/cdrom/Linux/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java: Permission denied
[10:17] <jeremychong> even when i'm running as root
[10:18] <xenex> When Ubuntu is starting up, the Ubuntu logo is fine. But when I am exiting Ubuntu, the Ubuntu logo is distorted. Any idea on how to fix this?
[10:18] <dershodan> Lynoure: where are you from? (me Austria)
[10:19] <wulax> jeremychong: are you sure it's executable?
[10:20] <wulax> jeremychong: chmod +x data
[10:20] <wy> neutrinomass:  Are you sure I can't view the CPU usage real-time with some tools like "top"?

[10:23] <masterofallarts> Hi everyone
[10:24] <masterofallarts> I got a problem: I set my mouse driver to evdev, but this breaks the keyboard
[10:24] <jeremychong> wulax: yup... it shows up as green under ls. That means it is executable, right? Or so I think...
[10:24] <masterofallarts> arrow keys' bindings change
[10:24] <wulax> jeremychong: yes.
[10:25] <harry> does banshee support audio transfers on mobile phones???
[10:25] <wulax> jeremychong: i have never used that program, so i guess i can't be of more help :)
[10:25] <neutrinomass> wy: You can view the CPU usage of the entier process usin top. But threads share the same PID so it would be impossible to distinguish from where it's coming. In general, learning to use a profiler is a very good thing to do, it will help you out whenever you want to optimize something :)
[10:25] <jeremychong> wulax: thanks very much anyway! :)
[10:25] <masterofallarts> I want this because i got a Razer Copperhead lately
[10:26] <harry> does banshee support audio transfers on mobile phones???
[10:27] <masterofallarts> evdev causes the left-arrow key to behave like return
[10:28] <harry> can someone give me a link on where could i get Xmms Skins
[10:28] <killaz> gamers around here?
[10:29] <mwe> harry: here: http://www.google.com/search?q=xmms+skins

[10:32] <hintswen> i don't suppose there's some way to make my music play louder? i've got volume on max and i reckon it's still soft
[10:32] <Yonda> I've just installed Unreal Tournament, and it said it was installed successfully. It said to use the 'ut2004' command to start it, which I do, and then terminal responds by saying command not found...
[10:33] <sk0rd> Yonda: perhaps its not in your path...
[10:33] <Semaphore> anyone have a 1680x1050 resolution?

[10:36] <zodo> Hmm.  I'm in need of some ACPI/APM insight.  I just set up grub to disable ACPI support on boot, because it was interfering with APM on my old laptop.  Now it reports battery info, and all that.  However, before I was able to retrieve CPU temp information, and the processor (PII) scaled properly down below 333mhz.  Now it does neither. Does anyone know of a way that I can reenable those functions while retaining APM?
[10:37] <zodo> I used the acpi=off command in grub.
[10:37] <vlad__> i have a problem with sudo

[10:40] <SVisor> Is default filesystem reiserfs on ubuntu?
[10:40] <KenSentMe> SVisor: ext3
[10:41] <compengi> wulax is there on keyboard for arabic language
[10:41] <wulax> clausen: then try Layout Options -> play around with settings
[10:41] <SVisor> Kent
[10:41] <pc22> how do i update?
[10:41] <[a] freebsd_fan> because many channels are over secure to the point that they are inconveniant, so you cant change to random nicks which you have not registered, this is because of unskilled people unable to defend their channels with simple scripts instead they use oversecure inconveniant channel modes
[10:41] <wulax> compengi: no idea
[10:41] <SVisor> KenSentMe: Then how do I force the installer to ue it when replacing my SuSE installation?
[10:42] <compengi> can you check it out pleace
[10:42] <compengi> please*
[10:42] <Semaphore> ok how the fk do i get 1680 without being asshole like on my notebook
[10:43] <thoreauputic> [a] freebsd_fan: /join #freebsd ;-)
[10:43] <Ng> compengi: there are several arabic layouts as far as I can see
[10:43] <compengi> good
[10:43] <SVisor> Maybe a more generic question: How do I select filesystem when installing Ubuntu?
[10:43] <compengi> ty
[10:44] <Kaja> SVisor, by clicking on it.
[10:46] <wulax> Semaphore: tried this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:46] <SVisor> Kaja: Maybe its just errorious language in the installer. The partioner tells me that it will format my #3 as reiserfs.. Maybe it means is will replace the filesystem? Oh well I can still press the back button and check if I can click around.
[10:46] <Semaphore> wulax yep
[10:46] <Semaphore> doesnt work
[10:47] <rpedro> SVisor: I don't know about the live cd, but in the alternate cd in the partitioning section it allows to chose the partition type to format each partition
[10:47] <wulax> ok
[10:47] <Semaphore> ive tried using calculators
[10:47] <BananaB> ls
[10:47] <Semaphore> my screen is visible but all screwed up
[10:47] <BananaB> opps
[10:47] <BananaB> hey y'all
[10:47] <Semaphore> like "scanline's everywhere"
[10:47] <wulax> Semaphore :(
[10:47] <BananaB> anyone got some experience with sshd?
[10:47] <Semaphore> its annnoying
[10:48] <Semaphore> i get 1680x1050 res
[10:48] <Semaphore> when using standard ati..
[10:48] <Semaphore> when i switch to fglrx
[10:48] <Semaphore> it does that

[10:48] <Semaphore> its the fking resolution
[10:48] <achandra> hello. Im having an issue adding a parameter to xorg.conf file for option SHMConfig on. After I do so, the synclient to turn of a touch pad complains that shm is not added...is this bug?
[10:48] <wulax> Semaphore: ati is kind of bad with linux :/
[10:48] <Semaphore> thing is my friends driver works fine
[10:49] <Semaphore> and his is 9000
[10:49] <Semaphore> i had my flgrx working in suse before
[10:49] <wulax> achandra: silly question: have you restarted X?
[10:49] <achandra> yep
[10:49] <johnZay> can anyone recommend a decent ftp client with a gui (other than gftp)?
[10:49] <wulax> Semaphore: ok
[10:49] <achandra> ctrl-bkspc should do it right?
[10:50] <wulax> Semaphore: have you tried the latest drivers?
[10:50] <SVisor> Argh no such option. Well it took me 20 hours to download this iso, so Im not going to do it all again. And I can live with reiserfs.
[10:50] <Semaphore> ye its the latest ones im using
[10:50] <wulax> achandra: yes
[10:50] <BananaB> oh well, I'll just go ahead and ask
[10:50] <BCK> Semaphore: have u tried an older driver?
[10:50] <maikol> how can i reconfigure my monitor display? for example dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86. but i have xserver-xorg now
[10:50] <achandra> ill give it another try...ill likely drop here... but be back soon.
[10:50] <Semaphore> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:51] <BananaB> when I try and start sshd, it returns "Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key"
[10:51] <BananaB> and then the same for dsa
[10:51] <jammer> Someone can hel me to install hauppage WINTV-PVR pci card drivers under video4linux (dapper)?
[10:51] <BananaB> and then it quits
[10:51] <BananaB> I have those files
[10:51] <Semaphore> BCK no havnt tried older ones
[10:51] <Semaphore> any ones in particular you suggest?
[10:51] <BananaB> I made them myself with ssh-keygen
[10:52] <rpedro> Semaphore: take a look at the 'Screen' section towards the end of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:52] <SVisor> BananaB: Whats the permission of those files. Maybe ssh cabt read em.
[10:52] <rpedro> Semaphore: and check if there is an entry named 'Virtual'
[10:53] <Semaphore> kk one sec
[10:53] <BananaB> Svisor: they are all 600, as recommended
[10:53] <BananaB> they are found if I make them 777, but it won't start because they are too open
[10:53] <rpedro> Semaphore: if there is , comment it out
[10:53] <Semaphore> and if there isnt im screwed:P
[10:53] <KenSentMe> jammer: i tried installing them, look for mythtv on the ubuntu wiki
[10:54] <jammer> yes but only for breezy
[10:54] <rpedro> Semaphore: just an idea...
[10:54] <jammer> no tutorials or suggestions for dapper
[10:54] <jammer> :(
[10:54] <SVisor> BananaB: Ive no more any working computer with ssh, but the owner of ssh should have read rights to those files. Not realy familiar with Ubuntus sudo everything aproach so I cant tell.
[10:55] <BananaB> and what's the deal with su?
[10:55] <rpedro> Semaphore: Virtual when enabled is the size of the virtual screen, that doesn't change when you switch resolutions
[10:55] <BananaB> is it disabled?
[10:55] <jammer> KenSentMe: under mythtv there's a news about next tutorial but no other informations.... :(
[10:55] <KenSentMe> jammer: you can also check the forums, i found a tutorial and it worked, but i don't know exactly where i found it
[10:55] <SVisor> BananaB: If memory serves you shuld use ssh-keygen as the user your going to use ssh as.
[10:56] <jammer> Please give me an Help
[10:56] <jammer> ok let me check
[10:56] <Semaphore> rpedro: as in spanning desktops multiheads?
[10:56] <SVisor> BananaB: Yes (more or less). Ubuntu is sudo everything (no I do not like it).
[10:56] <Semaphore> *,
[10:56] <rpedro> Semaphore: oh you got a multiscreen setup?
[10:57] <Semaphore> No..
[10:57] <Semaphore> no.
[10:57] <Semaphore> devil work
[10:57] <BananaB> SVisor, I used ssh-keygen to generate all of the keys
[10:57] <BananaB> and still nothing
[10:57] <BananaB> it seems I can use su with sudo su
[10:57] <mwe> don't do that
[10:57] <mwe> just use sudo -i
[10:57] <mwe> it will give you a root prompt as intended
[10:57] <BananaB> oookay
[10:57] <BananaB> what's the difference?
[10:57] <rpedro> Semaphore: then, no, it just means you can have a desktop bigger than you screen resolution, and you would use the mouse around the edges to scrool around
[10:58] <mwe> not much
[10:58] <SVisor> BananaB: Reactivate su by giving root a password. Wait an hour and I might have a working computer (installing ubuntu on it). On it I must install ssh so I will have to solve it.
[10:58] <mwe> it's just the way sudo is meant to be used
[10:58] <BananaB> okay
[10:58] <Ng> !root
[10:58] <ubotu> sudo is is a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[10:59] <hintswen> does anyone here use XMMS(audio player)?
[10:59] <Locke_> hintswen, yes
[10:59] <Locke_> i do
[10:59] <Locke_> im using it right now in fact
[11:00] <hintswen> is there some way i can make it keep my tracks at the same volume(ie, if there softer than a certain volume, then make them louder, and if there louder, then make them softer)
[11:00] <hintswen> if that makes sence lol
[11:00] <rpedro> Semaphore: maybe move your xorg.conf to a backup location, and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, that will get you a fresh xorg.conf files, and then you can start again from there
[11:00] <Subhuman> hintswen, yeah seach for "mp3 volume normalisation"
[11:00] <Semaphore> ye will have to try..
[11:00] <rpedro> Semaphore: then you can follow the howto for ATI binary drivers at the ubuntu wiki
[11:00] <Semaphore> anyways bbl
[11:00] <hintswen> I'm using XMMS right now aswell =D playing my c64 music from it
[11:01] <Semaphore> rpedro have..
[11:01] <Semaphore> doesnt work
[11:01] <Semaphore> :P
[11:01] <Subhuman> normally your mp3 player of choice can do it hintswen or software can edit each track to the same voucle.
[11:01] <hintswen> i don't want to edit it and i don't know where it is in XMSS(if it's there)
[11:01] <hintswen> mayke i need a plugin or something
[11:02] <rpedro> Semaphore: can you post the contents of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf at pastebin.com , and put the link here?
[11:02] <Semaphore> will do in a sec..
[11:02] <Ng> hintswen: perhaps xmms-volnorm
[11:02] <sphivo> hintswen: install xmms-volnorm
[11:02] <Ng> hintswen: (ubuntu package)
[11:03] <Semaphore> brb
[11:03] <hintswen> perfect
[11:04] <hintswen> must have gone right past it before
[11:06] <mwe> is there anything like xmms-volnorm for beep-media-player?
[11:06] <Hoxzer> mwe: can I ask you some simple question?
[11:07] <mwe> Hoxzer: yeah
[11:07] <SVisor> one hour to install will not hold. 92 updates (estimate to download 25min). Only VGA (640x480)... well Im going to be busy.

[11:07] <Hoxzer> mwe: first of all tell me if you are virgin then I'd like to know how long have u been using linux and your age would be nice to know as well ;)

[11:09] <mwe> Hoxzer: huh?
[11:09] <BananaB> for a support channel
[11:09] <Hoxzer> mwe: do you know the answer?
[11:09] <BananaB> that's pretty off-topic
[11:09] <hintswen> haha, can u guess the answers to thoes 3 q's for me?
[11:09] <SVisor> Your such joykills! ;-)
[11:09] <mwe> Hoxzer: I'm not gonna answer crap like that
[11:10] <wulax> Hoxzer: be nice
[11:10] <Hoxzer> mwe:  are you scared?
[11:10] <Hoxzer> wulax: :/ why can't I ask simple questions?
[11:10] <Madpilot> Hoxzer, drop it, before you earn yourself a ban, OK?
[11:10] <SVisor> Hoxzer: Give it a break!

[11:13] <MetaMorfoziS> oh:(
[11:13] <NET||abuse> Ng, crap.. feel stupid now :(
[11:14] <Ng> MetaMorfoziS: you might want to try vmware-player too. there are howto's on the web that describe how to get/make an image file you can install XP into and vmware is said to be the quickest virtual machine
[11:14] <andrzej> [dapper]  is any package with apache,php,mysql together (like Appserv for Win) or must i just install it?
[11:14] <Ng> !tell andrzej about lamp
[11:15] <harry> Please help me, my CDrom does not mount. i got this error message, "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist"
[11:15] <Ng> hmm
[11:15] <mwe> harisund: it's not hdc maybe?
[11:15] <mwe> harry: ^^
[11:15] <harry> mwe: can you help???
[11:15] <harry> Please help me, my CDrom does not mount. i got this error message, "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist"
[11:16] <mwe> harry: maybe the device is hdc
[11:16] <andrzej> ng - but i can't find lamp package
[11:16] <tolonuga> hi. I wrote an howto how to setup (k)ubuntu with encrypted root and swap partitions. can anyone recommend a place/wiki where I can publish it? also I want to submit it as spec for inclusion in the next version.
[11:16] <Ng> andrzej: yeah it's not a specific package, our channel bot was supposed to reply with a wiki URL that explains how to install the lamp components, but the bot seems to be sulking ;)
[11:16] <harry> mwe: but the message was hdb
[11:16] <mwe> andrzej: there isn't one package for lamp but the wiki describes how to install it well
[11:16] <andrzej> aaaaa :) thanks
[11:17] <semaphore> http://pastebin.com/720442
[11:17] <Ng> andrzej: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP might well help :)
[11:17] <harry> mwe: the error started when i mounted the NTFS harddrive
[11:17] <semaphore> http://pastebin.com/720442 == xorg.conf
[11:17] <harry> ic56: are you there???
[11:17] <SVisor> harry: Try in console mount /dev/hdc if it works then the icon your clicking is set up wrong
[11:17] <mwe> harry: huh? what were you doing when you got the error?
[11:18] <andrzej> ooo maybe ubuntu-lamp from Synaptic?
[11:18] <mwe> andrzej: I told you there is not a lamp package. please read the wiki page
[11:19] <davidli> makedev service
[11:19] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell andrzej about lamp
[11:19] <Ng> ubotu seems to be sulking, or at least it won't respond ot me ;)
[11:19] <ubotu> I know nothing about seems to be sulking, or at least it won't respond ot me ;)
[11:19] <rpedro> semaphore: you have an lcd monitor?
[11:19] <Ng> aha
[11:19] <andrzej> ok, Im readig
[11:20] <Madpilot> Ng, heh :)
[11:20] <semaphore> rpedro: ye 1680x1050
[11:20] <Madpilot> !ubotu
[11:20] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[11:20] <Ng> Madpilot: it's still ignoring privmsgs though. weird
[11:20] <Madpilot> Ng, slight bug in the new bot code - but for now, if you're in a PM window w/ the bot, stick ! back in front of the tell
[11:20] <Ng> ahh
[11:21] <rpedro> semaphore: and what is happening wrong? because I can't see a problem with your xorg.conf
[11:21] <Ng> Madpilot: bingo, thanks :)
[11:21] <semaphore> rpedro: when i load into fglrx the screen is all screwed up
[11:21] <semaphore> like its not synching
[11:21] <andrzej> but... Packages for a LAMP setup
[11:21] <andrzej> This package gives you a complete 1-machine LAMP system.
[11:21] <semaphore> there funny lines everywhere
[11:21] <Madpilot> Ng, np - Seveas has said he'd fix that soon, though, to go back to the old way
[11:21] <semaphore> and its just wierd..
[11:21] <semaphore> sort difficult to explain
[11:22] <andrzej> whats that?
[11:22] <semaphore> brb gonna try something
[11:23] <snooflecake> is it possible to dial out with a 56k modem in console mode?
[11:23] <mwe> I think ubotu could need a general makeover :)
[11:23] <andrzej> ng & Madpilot - thanks
[11:23] <ahm>  snooflecake sure:  pon  & poff
[11:24] <Madpilot> mwe, it's been getting one, actually :)
[11:24] <ahm> use pppconfig to configure your login scripts, then pon to logon to your dialup, poff to logoff
[11:24] <snooflecake> very nice, thanks a lot ahm
[11:25] <ahm> question:  i installed dapper on my gf's lappy, and, while i can ping to my crux and slackware boxen from it, i can't ping from them to ubuntu.
[11:25] <ahm>  /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/host are correct in ubuntu, as are their equivalents in slack & crux...
[11:26] <ahm> suggestions as to the problem?  i need to be able to ssh between the boxes
[11:26] <mwe> ahm: no odd firewall rules or sth?
[11:26] <SVisor> Does ubuntu (like SuSE) have a firewall activated?
[11:26] <ahm> default fw in ubuntu, nothing unusual in either of the others
[11:27] <mwe> SVisor: not by default. since nothing is listening by default no firewall is needed, really
[11:27] <SVisor> mwe: I agree, SuSE did not.
[11:27] <Madpilot> ahm, Ubuntu might be set up to not return pings by default? (I'm not at all sure, though...)
[11:27] <ahm> i don't know...it's actually a mepis6.0 install...but THEIR channel's dead as an armadillo on a Texas highway.
[11:28] <mwe> Madpilot: I think not :|
[11:28] <ahm> (edubuntu wouldn't install on this lappy)
[11:29] <mwe> ahm: try sudo ipconfig --list though to see if any rules are blocking pings
[11:29] <fjellrev1> My synaptic updater is telling me that there are other software update programs running so it cant update but there are no other running,gone through the system monitor several times..
[11:29] <mwe> ahm: uhm iptables that is
[11:29] <mwe> ahm: sudo iptables --list
[11:32] <ahm> hold on, have to reconfigure mrxvt to longer scrollbackc
[11:32] <Subhuman> mwe,  it is "iptables -L" isnt it? thats what i use
[11:32] <mwe> Subhuman: same thing
[11:32] <mwe> Subhuman: both will work
[11:33] <mwe> ahm: use sudo iptables -L|less if you need
[11:33] <mwe> ahm: that will let you use browse the output
[11:34] <ahm> i just called up mrxvt -sl 5000 via mrxvt :)
[11:34] <mwe> ok
[11:35] <ahm> looooong output from iptables --list
[11:35] <mwe> look for icmp
[11:35] <mwe> ahm: what did you use to set up iptables?
[11:35] <ahm> in ubuntu? rock stock off the cd
[11:36] <ahm> it's got guarddog running, tho'
[11:37] <mwe> ahm: I'm not familiar with that.
[11:37] <mwe> ahm: you can probably configure it to not block ping though
[11:37] <mwe> ahm: tell me what sudo iptables -L|grep icmp returns
[11:37] <ahm> mwe, nor i...i think it's part of kde(?) (i'm a wmaker guy)
[11:38] <BCK> grrrrrrrrr
[11:38] <BCK> they should not ship a linux distrobution without gcc make
[11:38] <Ng> BCK: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:39] <jack__> hello,I'm a new boy
[11:39] <Ng> BCK: discussions are underway at the moment about including it in the default install in the next release
[11:39] <BCK> Ng:  :) glad to hear it
[11:39] <Madpilot> BCK, install "build-essential", that gets all your compiler toys
[11:40] <mwe> ahm: I'm running kde as well but guarddog is not installed with kubuntu here
[11:40] <BCK> hmm ok
[11:40] <jksd_> hi, could someone tell me what are the advantages the Linux command line has over plesk?
[11:40] <rpedro> if Semaphore comes back , can someone tell him to paste this into sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf : http://pastebin.ca/67600  ?
[11:40] <BCK> installing build essential via synaptic
[11:40] <Sjoerd-> plesk costs $$$ ?
[11:41] <rpedro> rpedro: please
[11:41] <jksd_> sjoerd: I get it for free with my dedicated server
[11:41] <rpedro> *please
[11:41] <ahm> mwe ACCEPT icmp -- anywhere  anywhere  icmp (choose 1) time-exceeded, parameter problem, source-quench, echo-reply, echo-request and reject-with icmp-port unreachable
[11:41] <jksd_> Sjoerd-: I get it for free with my dedicated server
[11:41] <jksd_> even
[11:41] <scompalp> I need help! How do I install kernel header files??
[11:42] <Ng> scompalp: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[11:42] <mwe> ahm: looks like it has some funky rules setup. I'd guess the echo-reply is about the ping reply though
[11:42] <Ng> scompalp: note that the ` characters are backticks
[11:42] <Sjoerd-> jksd_, i think cli gives you more power, and plesk has a nice interface
[11:42] <ahm> uh huh, i agree
[11:42] <mwe> ahm: I'd run guarddog and look around for ping options
[11:42] <Yonda> Where do I go to change the name of the network that ubuntu is connected to?
[11:43] <semaphore> bleh
[11:43] <jksd_> sjoerd: is it worth being familiar with both?
[11:43] <ahm> ok, that sounds like a good idea...i guess it's time to learn guarddog. :)
[11:43] <semaphore> i give up i dnt know
[11:43] <jksd_> Sjoerd-: is it worth being familiar with both?
[11:43] <Sjoerd-> jksd_: yes
[11:43] <mwe> Yonda: /etc/hosts ?
[11:43] <champi_> ei
[11:43] <rpedro> can someone please tell semaphore to paste this http://pastebin.ca/67600 into sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf when he comes back?
[11:43] <champi_> spain
[11:43] <semaphore> i r back
[11:43] <champi_> yo no se ingles
[11:43] <scompalp> thank you, I succesfuly installed headers!!
[11:44] <rpedro> semaphore: hi :)
[11:44] <champi_> aonde?
[11:44] <semaphore> one sec
[11:44] <semaphore> im in my fucked screen
[11:44] <semaphore> with all these lovely

[11:44] <Sjoerd-> jksd_: Plesk looks nice, I would use it, but it never hurts to know cli as well :)
[11:44] <rpedro> semaphore: didn't spot the problem at first
[11:44] <a_l_e> can anybody help me with a ppc installation?
[11:44] <ahm> linux without cli?  heresy! ;)
[11:45] <semaphore> what is the problem rpedro ?
[11:45] <amac-laptop> something very strange happened on my desktop. I ran the checkinstall command and all of a sudden I can no longer log in
[11:45] <Sjoerd-> ahm: pleks is just a package to manage his server/domains
[11:45] <a_l_e> i've created a 800K bootstrap partition, but the installer tells me that it can't find a bootstrap partition which is big enough and hfs+ formatted.
[11:45] <amac-laptop> I get this very strange error that says sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: permission denied
[11:45] <rpedro> semaphore: it's the way ati-config configures the xorg.conf file
[11:45] <amac-laptop> it says it with root and my main user account
[11:46] <semaphore> ok..
[11:46] <rpedro> semaphore: there were to screen sections with the same name
[11:46] <semaphore> well i added it..
[11:46] <semaphore> let me see if it works
[11:46] <amac-laptop> my main login is part of the admin group
[11:46] <jksd_> Sojerd-: right
[11:46] <Sjoerd-> amac-laptop: You can always login via grub
[11:46] <ahm> Sjoerd-, Plesk?  yep, familiar with it.
[11:46] <Yonda> mwe, my hosts file currently looks like this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16061 - how can i change the current network that im on, apparently 'ms-home' to 'net1' which is what i want? Thanks
[11:46] <rpedro> semaphore: it should work
[11:46] <achandra> Hey guys. I was working with some peeps on weird behavior of synaptics touch pad off of base install of ubuntu dapper. My touch pad would do all kinds of weird stuff. Anyhow I also figured out the issue with the SHMConfig showing as not available in the xorg.conf. It appears there IS a bug with the default xorg that ubuntu loads..
[11:46] <semaphore> brb
[11:46] <scompalp> I still need help with those header files. In ndiswrapper readme says that in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build I should have include and .config, but I have only include folder, why?
[11:47] <amac-laptop> Sjoerd: I can login, but the system just died outta the blue on me
[11:47] <amac-laptop> I ran checkinstall and next thing you know a bunch of error messages popup and my icons disspear
[11:47] <achandra> scompalp: is there a reason to use the source pakage versus what comes with ubuntu??
[11:47] <amac-laptop> and now I can't even start gdm
[11:48] <sjoerd> Sjoerd-: really could you please change your nick in something that isn't almost the same as mine... It's slowly driving me crazy :)
[11:48] <ahm> thanks y'all
[11:48] <scompalp> achandra: NOthing come in ubunut, folder /lib/modules/***/build never existed
[11:48] <amac-laptop> weird. I have never seen anything like this
[11:49] <achandra> scompalp: why not use the ndiswrapper that comes with ubuntu ? Unless there is a compelling reason...
[11:49] <scompalp> ndiswrapper didn't come with ubuntu...
[11:50] <achandra> scompalp: ahhh...okay do this...
[11:50] <achandra> scompalp: go to /etc/apt

[11:50] <semaphore> rpedro: nope
[11:51] <semaphore> screwed it up even more i couldnt even see the desktop now or login
[11:51] <achandra> did you edit the sources.list file?

[11:53] <airzer0> looking for websites with more information, google not much help
[11:53] <Arafangi1n> airzer0: I suggest #python, and to actually just ask the question, rather than first ascertaining as if people who use the language actually exist, then asking for permission to ask the question, before actually asking the question.
[11:54] <achandra> scompalp: you are familiar with vi or other editor?

[12:10] <scompalp> How do I do that?
[12:10] <achandra> scompalp: do a lsmod | grep bcm43xx and see what comes up first
[12:10] <achandra> or just do an lsmod
[12:11] <achandra> and look for the bcm43xx
[12:11] <achandra> see it?

[12:18] <agabus> someothernick - i don't think it is definately related to just this specific wireless card (although i can't be sure), but it freezes the instant i put it in, and i've read of similar problems with other people with different wireless cards.

[12:24] <Azertyuuu> hey all, is there an application(maybe Automatix) that can install XGL itself
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> !automatix
[12:24] <ubotu> automatix is a script that automates installation of some items and has been reported to break your system while doing that, please see http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead.
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> automatix is very bad
[12:24] <BananaB> anyone experienced with the usage of sshd?
[12:24] <BananaB> !ssh
[12:24] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto. Putty is a nice windows ssh client, see http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[12:24] <BananaB> !sshd
[12:24] <ubotu> I know nothing about sshd
[12:24] <thoreauputic> !ssh
[12:24] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto. Putty is a nice windows ssh client, see http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> BananaB:: you mean shfs?
[12:25] <BananaB> no, setting up openssh/sshd
[12:25] <Azertyuuu> so my question now: can XGL be installed automatically
[12:25] <Hexidigital_> Azertyuuu:: no
[12:25] <Hexidigital_> Azertyuuu:: do not use automatix... it is a very BAD tool
[12:25] <LouisJRG> how can i make windows always the defualt entry in grub, even after kernel updates?
[12:26] <Azertyuuu> and what about EasyUbuntu ?
[12:26] <Hexidigital_> LouisJRG:: edit your ~/boot/grub/menu.list file
[12:26] <achandra> scompalp: perfect
[12:26] <Hexidigital_> LouisJRG:: copy and paste your windows install to the top of the doc
[12:26] <LouisJRG> Hexidigital_: OK, above the automatic generated list?
[12:26] <kbrooks> Hexidigital_: automwatix is not a very baad tool
[12:27] <achandra> scompalp: using console.. we will need to load up that file using ndis...ready?
[12:27] <juanca7777_> i would like to monitor log files, display them on the metacity root window, any good tools that do this?
[12:27] <scompalp> yes
[12:27] <Hexidigital_> LouisJRG:: right above your default ubuntu entry (this may be reset after a kernel update, i'm not sure)
[12:27] <agabus> someothernick - any ideas?
[12:28] <achandra> scompalp: go to the directory where that inf file is....then sudo ndiswrapper - i bcmwl5.inf
[12:28] <LouisJRG> Hexidigital_: thanks, I'll give it a shot, its just annoying having to change it all the time
[12:28] <someothernick> agabus, there are a few different drivers for the card
[12:28] <someothernick> 1 sec
[12:29] <agabus> someothernick - are you sure the driver is the problem? and some some configs for the pcm slot
[12:29] <pzico> hey, fdisk -l /dev/hda shows only hda1 while from my previous installation of debian I could also see hda5 which was ntfs partition.. how can access that ntfs partition not shown by fdisk?
[12:29] <scompalp> Installed ndis drivers:
[12:29] <scompalp> bcmwl5          driver present, hardware present
[12:29] <jastafa> i have a screen resolution problem in ubuntu, can anyone help me_
[12:29] <someothernick> agabus, no clue :/
[12:29] <Yonda> How can I change the workgroup name of the network that ubuntu is connected to?
[12:29] <Hexidigital_> ubotu:: tell pzico about diskmounter
[12:29] <NET||abuse> is there a package that will work like netsniffer? or a gui that shows similar level of detail about networks ?
[12:29] <achandra> scompalp: nice.... now do an ndiswrapper -l
[12:29] <Hexidigital_> !diskmounter
[12:29] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[12:29] <agabus> someothernick - lol ok.
[12:29] <achandra> it should show the driver..
[12:29] <scompalp> it do
[12:29] <scompalp> show
[12:29] <pzico> thanks for link :)
[12:30] <Hexidigital_> ubotu messages broken?
[12:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about messages broken?
[12:30] <Hexidigital_> pzico:: no problem
[12:30] <Hexidigital_> !test
[12:30] <achandra> scompalp: now do....ndiswrapper -m
[12:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about test
[12:30] <keith> Any of you guys logged a linux client onto a winfdows 2003 domain ?
[12:30] <scompalp> I did
[12:30] <achandra> okay
[12:30] <NET||abuse> sorry, looking for a gui app that works like network stumbler?
[12:30] <keith> or any AD domain for that matter
[12:30] <keith> NET||abuse, use Kismet
[12:30] <keith> there is a gui i belive
[12:31] <juanca7777_> i would like to monitor log files, display them on the metacity root window, any good tools that do this?
[12:31] <someothernick> agabus, maybe this will help unless you already went through it http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5645&highlight=wpc54g
[12:31] <achandra> scompalp: if you choose to...that pretty much adds the entry to /etc/modprobe.d with a file called ndiswrapper
[12:31] <keith> juanca7777_, just write a scriopt
[12:31] <Hexidigital_> i think the bot is broken
[12:31] <juanca7777_> i would like to monitor log files, display them on the metacity root window, any good graphical tools that do this?
[12:31] <achandra> scompalp: that file will likely say alias wlan0 ndiswrapper
[12:31] <modd> How do I prevent users to see home folders of other users?
[12:31] <NET||abuse> keith, ahh, i thought kismet was a little more advanced than network stumbler?
[12:32] <modd> or some other folders
[12:32] <keith> Its better yes
[12:32] <Yonda> How can I change the workgroup name that ubuntu is connected to. It's currently connected to MS-HOME, but I want it connected to NET1, how can I change it??
[12:32] <BananaB> how can I start sshd without using public key encryption?
[12:32] <agabus> someothernick - lol is that from the Warty hardware help
[12:32] <pzico> diskmounter says: No usable windows/mac partitions found :(
[12:32] <modd> like if user writes ls /home, It'd say only Permission denied
[12:33] <scompalp> what's next?
[12:33] <achandra> Yonda: likely that entry is in the smb.conf file ine /etc
[12:33] <someothernick> agabus, this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=198276&highlight=wpc54g had the link to that ;/

[12:36] <Hexidigital_> george_looney:: fluxbox is fairly minimal... ill get you a command, one second
[12:36] <george_looney> x-window-system-core installs all the oth Xorg drivers as well
[12:37] <renski> I want to script some SQL stuff to a MsSQL box

[12:38] <renski> achandra: eh? how does samba relate to JDBC and MsSQL?
[12:39] <george_looney> thoreaupatic: I did "apt-get -s install x-window-system-core"...

[12:40] <NET||abuse> kismet... not very simple
[12:40] <NET||abuse> :(
[12:40] <Hexidigital_> george_looney:: use xfce4 first, i think that installs all required packages

[12:41] <BananaB> I'm having trouble with SSH, it keeps on demanding the "ssh_host_rsa_key" files, which I have, but it won't find
[12:41] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: do you think xfce is as *unbloated* as it will get?
[12:41] <BananaB> sorry, this is sshd
[12:41] <XVampireX> Anyone knows?
[12:41] <achandra> Yonda: it should be like /etc/init.d/smbd restart  i think..

[12:42] <KenSentMe> XVampireX: can't you do tar -zxvf * ?
[12:43] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: im a gnome-man :)
[12:43] <george_looney> boricua, go to /etc/rc2.d/ directory
[12:43] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital_: my sympathies ;)
[12:43] <XVampireX> KenSentMe, What about ZIP files?
[12:43] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: lol
[12:43] <apokryphos> XVampireX: zips?
[12:43] <achandra> scompalp: that hopefully should locad the module...and you should see the light...IF its the right driver..
[12:43] <XVampireX> Yeah
[12:43] <george_looney> all files with S* names are the services that start in runlevel 2
[12:43] <apokryphos> XVampireX: use unzip
[12:43] <Hexidigital_> !usenames
[12:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about usenames
[12:43] <XVampireX> Does it have an option for all?
[12:43] <Hexidigital_> !usename
[12:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about usename
[12:43] <george_looney> will be back people
[12:43] <Hexidigital_> !bot broken
[12:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about bot broken
[12:44] <boricua> george_looney:thxs i lost power last night and when machine restarted cups was not running  any hint why it did not start @ reboot if it should
[12:44] <Yonda> achandra, It appears that thats done the trick! Thanks a bunch
[12:44] <XVampireX> Nevermind, I'll check manpage
[12:44] <Hexidigital_> can someone restart ubotu?
[12:44] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital_: ubotu is the village idiot currently
[12:44] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: good... im off the hook, then
[12:44] <achandra> Yonda: yep it needs to be restarted..to take effect..
[12:44] <apokryphos> XVampireX: sorry?
[12:44] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital_: he's being reprogrammed by seveas I believe ;)
[12:44] <Yonda> achandra, thanks for your help, much appreciated
[12:44] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: oh, ok
[12:45] <apokryphos> XVampireX: do something like find -iname "*.zip" -exec unzip {} \;
[12:45] <XVampireX> apokryphos, I need to unzip all zips
[12:45] <apokryphos> XVampireX: note this will unzip *all* .zip files recursively
[12:45] <achandra> Yonda: no problem...see if you can read up and get it to be a domain controller.. then contribute a write up....:)
[12:45] <apokryphos> XVampireX: as in, any sub-directories with zips will be unzipped, too
[12:45] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital_: the effect of this is left as an exercise for the reader ;p
[12:45] <XVampireX> I just need in a specific folder :P
[12:45] <XVampireX> I guess unzip *,zip should work
[12:45] <Hexidigital_> thoreauputic:: man commands for everyone! :-D
[12:45] <apokryphos> XVampireX: I don't think it does, actually
[12:46] <XVampireX> Oh
[12:46] <Chousuke> XVampireX: use for
[12:46] <apokryphos> that would work, too
[12:46] <achandra> scompalp: still there??
[12:46] <thoreauputic> Hexidigital_: auto-kick for all politically incorrect questions ;p
[12:46] <Hexidigital_> heh
[12:46] <Chousuke> for zip in *; do; unzip $zip; done; or something
[12:46] <Chousuke> *.zip even
[12:47] <apokryphos> Chousuke: no.....that'd try to unzip every file in the directory :P
[12:47] <XVampireX> Chousuke, for *.zip do unzip ? :P
[12:47] <apokryphos> XVampireX: do the command I gave you
[12:47] <achandra> man woman.....no manual entry for woman....what the heck? lol
[12:47] <Chousuke> XVampireX: that might work too
[12:47] <XVampireX> apokryphos, I just need in a specific folder
[12:47] <apokryphos> achandra: damn! Maybe there was a --help page?
[12:47] <bsg> how to switch gnome to xfc when I run them by using startx ?
[12:47] <apokryphos> XVampireX: yes... so cd to the folder and then execute it
[12:47] <achandra> he he
[12:48] <XVampireX> apokryphos, the one you gave me?
[12:48] <gnomefreak> bsg: log out and than log in to xfce
[12:48] <thoreauputic> bsg: xfc? do you mean xfce4 ?
[12:48] <apokryphos> bsg: update-alternatives --config x-session-manager
[12:48] <bsg> xfce yes
[12:48] <apokryphos> XVampireX: yes
[12:48] <achandra> scompalp: there??
[12:49] <bsg> thx
[12:49] <Amaranth> bsg: I think you can also just run 'startx <command to start xfce>'
[12:50] <Amaranth> bsg: but what apokryphos said is the right way to go
[12:50] <achandra> sleep is underated....damn its late/early....
[12:50] <XVampireX> apokryphos, thanks, that worked
[12:50] <bsg> yes, it works
[12:50] <alth> Is there a little calculator in Ubuntu?
[12:50] <achandra> yep
[12:50] <Yonda> apokryphos, theres one more thing...I have MAC address filtering enabled, how can I find out the MAC address of a network card?
[12:50] <achandra> alth: xclac
[12:51] <achandra> alth: xcalc...woops
[12:51] <alth> Ta :)
[12:51] <achandra> np
[12:51] <apokryphos> Yonda: ifconfig -a
[12:52] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: your still up?
[12:52] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: just woke up 8)
[12:52] <gnomefreak> oh ok good
[12:52] <Yonda> apokryphos, Thanks again!!
[12:52] <achandra> scompalp: still there.???
[12:52] <harry> how do you run clamav after installation???
[12:53] <harry> how do you run clamav after installation???
[12:54] <KenSentMe> harry: don't repeat your question, if someone knows the answer, they will tell you
[12:54] <SVisor> BananaB: Did you solve your ssh problems?
[12:54] <floppyears> quick question
[12:54] <pzico> please, how can I find my ntfs partition? I can boot from grub to windows but fdisk and cfdisk don't see it, they say it's unpartitioned
[12:54] <floppyears> where can I download the ubuntu live cd ?
[12:54] <floppyears> I have found the installation cds
[12:54] <floppyears> but not the live cd
[12:55] <achandra> harry: sudo clamscan -r /localtion of files and folders
[12:55] <SVisor> By the way Ubuntu seems to have trouble with _my_ dual screen config. Had (as usual) hack my own xorg.conf to get it working
[12:55] <renski> SVisor same here
[12:55] <KenSentMe> floppyears: the installation cd is a live cd
[12:55] <achandra> harry: see this --- http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_ClamAV_AntiVirus_Server
[12:55] <apokryphos> floppyears: check the FAQ
[12:55] <KenSentMe> floppyears: it's combined
[12:56] <renski> SVisor I have a Nvidea geforce, with dual output, and it only detected the old onboard one, had to rewrite screen and device sections
[12:56] <achandra> scompalp: alive still or asleep??? lol
[12:56] <renski> SVisor worked perfectly then
[12:56] <pritisd> hi all,
[12:56] <achandra> good morning
[12:56] <pritisd> Madpilot, i referedto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:57] <cute_bettong> where is the file for the wep key on dapper stored?
[12:57] <pritisd> i referedto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:57] <pritisd> still doesn't solve my problem
[12:58] <achandra> cute_bettong: did you try /etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:58] <SVisor> renski: I had the same trouble with SuSE so Ubuntu isnt alone. Seems to be HW bug in ATI9700 or is it 9600, seems to never remember. Even WinXP has a hard time, but copes better.
[12:59] <cute_bettong> nope thank you
[12:59] <cute_bettong> ^_^
[12:59] <BananaB> SVisor, I didn't solve the sshd problems, and the plot thickens, as I have the same issue on my mac
[12:59] <renski> SVisor luckly Xorg -configure gave me the PCI address, otherwise I might never of found it
[01:00] <jamey> When I plug in a USB pen drive, it is not automounted nor do I have any /dev/sda*. I'm using 6.06 LTS. Any ideas?
[01:00] <SVisor> renski: Windows gives just 60Hz refresh on my second screen. Both SuSE and Ubuntu gave 640x480 and refused to acknowledge the other screen.
[01:00] <apokryphos> jamey: /dev/sdb*?
[01:00] <renski> SVisor yeah, ive never got the second screen working
[01:00] <dmpop> Hi! I've just installed Ubuntu 6.06 on my PowerMac G4. The problem is Ubuntu defaults my display settings to 1024x768 60 MHz, and there no other (higher) options available. However, on Mac OS X I can choose 1152x870 75MHz. How can I set Ubuntu to 1152x870 75MHz? Thank you!
[01:00] <renski> SVisor but I havnt tried dapper yet
[01:00] <apokryphos> dmpop: check the FAQ =)
[01:00] <jamey> apokryphos, when I do /dev/s (tab) it only shows shm and snd. No sdb.
[01:01] <achandra> cute_bettong: certainly a good question...im not sure.. but worth finding out..
[01:01] <apokryphos> jamey: are you sure it's plugged in and turned on if it needs to be?
[01:01] <jamey> apokryphos, yes it's plugged into Bus 003 when I use lsusb. And it's USB powered, the light is on.
[01:02] <george_looney> hello again people
[01:02] <SVisor> BananaB: Cant help you there :-( ssh (the client) works beautiful from Ubuntu against my old server. Havent (and as it seems to bug, will not) tried to set up sshd on it.
[01:02] <george_looney> Well this is what I have done
[01:02] <BananaB> thanks anyway SVisor
[01:03] <jamey> apokryphos, any ideas?
[01:03] <apokryphos> jamey: well, plug it in again and then dmesg to see what it's doing
[01:03] <jamey> ok
[01:03] <SVisor> BananaB: I will check how the old box is set up. I still think its a permission trouble.
[01:03] <george_looney> I installed xorg-i810 driver followed by x-window-system-core
[01:03] <george_looney> now installing xfwm4
[01:04] <BananaB> SVisor, I've tryed all kinds of permissions to no avail, the most common being recommened as 600
[01:04] <george_looney> where have all the other alternative window mangers gone?
[01:04] <jamey> apokryphos, [4295458.153000]  usb-storage: device found at 5 .. [4295458.153000]  usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
[01:04] <george_looney> I can't find enlightenment, icewm, fluxbox etc...
[01:04] <george_looney> Have they moved it to Universe??
[01:04] <george_looney> ...or worse, Multiverse??!!
[01:04] <pritisd> i need a choice of screen resolution thro' system -> screen resolution preferences menu
[01:04] <pritisd> still i am having only one option 640x480
[01:04] <achandra> all right you gus...time for my butt to get some sleep... later on.
[01:05] <jamey> pritisd, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:05] <gnomefreak> !info fluxbox
[01:05] <ubotu> fluxbox: Highly configurable and low resource X11 Window manager. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.9.14-2 (dapper), package size 720 kB, installed size 2288 kB
[01:05] <apokryphos> jamey: nothing else, now?
[01:05] <gnomefreak> george_looney: universe
[01:05] <SVisor> BananaB: Do you have a ssh_host_key.pub?
[01:05] <george_looney> Oh God
[01:05] <BananaB> wait up, checking
[01:06] <BananaB> SVisor, no
[01:06] <BananaB> I just have ss_host_dsa/rsa_key's
[01:06] <jamey> apokryphos, http://dawley.me.uk/dmesg
[01:07] <apokryphos> jamey: well, there you go, it should be /dev/sda1
[01:07] <george_looney> Ok I can start the Xserver, but, I am unable to get any Window Manager to show
[01:07] <SVisor> BananaB: there should be a .pub for them too. And that file should be readable (not editable) by group and world.
[01:07] <boricua> been using ubuntu for 5 days on a cheap wal-mart laptop cn4949  and it runs like a very expensive one, nice job on dapper
[01:07] <george_looney> I'm using `apt-get' for everything
[01:07] <genius> can someone kick compengi
[01:07] <BananaB> SVisor, so.. 733?
[01:07] <apokryphos> genius: ?
[01:07] <jamey> apokryphos, but it isn't! Even when I'm root it still has no sda
[01:08] <genius> cause i'm compengi
[01:08] <SVisor> BananaB: 644
[01:08] <genius> this should be ping time out
[01:08] <apokryphos> genius: only you or a freenode staffer can make him quit IRC. If you own him, use ghost
[01:08] <apokryphos> !ghost
[01:08] <ubotu> On IRC, if you own a nick that is currently being used, you can make it quit by typing: /msg nickserv GHOST <username> <password>
[01:08] <thoreauputic> george_looney: make a ~/.xsession file and put " exec startfluxbox" in it ( without quotes), then try "startx"
[01:08] <apokryphos> jamey: are you sure? sudo ls /dev/sda* ?
[01:09] <BananaB> SVisor, I just get 'UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE" and then it says these keys will be ignored because they are insecure
[01:09] <thoreauputic> george_looney: if that doesn't work I'd be surprised
[01:09] <jamey> apokryphos, why oh why does ls bring it up but normal browsing does not? Oh well
[01:09] <cute_bettong> ok how do i tell if the network card is working right? when i installed it it ran without a hitch.....now it will not connect to the router
[01:09] <SVisor> BananaB: Its only the .pub that should be readable. All the others should be 600
[01:09] <jamey> apokryphos, is there a quick way to mount it now?
[01:09] <apokryphos> jamey: err, so it was brought up?
[01:09] <jamey> yes
[01:09] <cute_bettong> is there a way to find out if the network card is goofing up?
[01:09] <BananaB> ahh, okay
[01:09] <apokryphos> jamey: I thought you said it wasn't :P
[01:09] <SVisor> BananaB: If thats the way it is, then I do not know
[01:10] <thoreauputic> george_looney: assuming you installed fluxbox of course ;)
[01:10] <george_looney> ok, thoreau lemme try that and get back
[01:10] <apokryphos> jamey: anyhow, see if it's not already mounted in /media
[01:10] <compengi> ty apokryphos
[01:10] <cute_bettong> the only clue that dmesg gives is wlan0 no IPb6 routers present
[01:10] <compengi> my connection droped that's why
[01:10] <BananaB> SVisor, back to same old error :(
[01:10] <george_looney> no thoreau, not enabling Universe for now
[01:10] <jamey> apokryphos, no it isn't in /media
[01:10] <apokryphos> compengi: np :)
[01:10] <cute_bettong> er IPv6 lol
[01:10] <thoreauputic> george_looney: you do have universe and multiverse enabled, right?
[01:10] <george_looney> nope thoreauputic
[01:10] <tripppy> ok so i know in the folder ~/Pictures the screen saver will slideshow those pictures
[01:11] <tripppy> whers is ~/Pictures
[01:11] <apokryphos> jamey: then mount it... sudo mkdir /media/usb && sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb -t vfat
[01:11] <Mikkok> Hello everybody. I got on my fujitsu siemens amilo m7440g a switch, what must be pressed that the wlan it works, on ubuntu the switch doesnt work and so internet it doesn't work with wlan.
[01:11] <thoreauputic> george_looney: *sigh* then do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and add them
[01:11] <thoreauputic> george_looney: or at least universe
[01:12] <Bateau_> my screen can take a ressolution up to 1920x1200. but kubuntu stops at 1024x768. how can i change it higher?
[01:12] <apokryphos> Bateau_: check the faq
[01:12] <thoreauputic> george_looney: then run sdo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install <window mangaer of preference>
[01:12] <thoreauputic> *manager
[01:12] <jamey> apokryphos, thanks a bunch
[01:12] <SVisor> BananaB: Thats all that I can think of...My perms are that way 644 on .pub and 600 on all others. All owned by root.
[01:12] <cute_bettong> anyone know?
[01:13] <BananaB> hmm
[01:13] <george_looney> thoreauputic, big problem
[01:13] <BananaB> same here
[01:13] <george_looney> .xsession not working
[01:13] <thoreauputic> george_looney: namely?
[01:13] <BananaB> thanks anyway
[01:13] <george_looney> is it .xsession or .Xsession
[01:13] <Mikkok> Hello everybody. I got on my fujitsu siemens amilo m7440g a switch, what must be pressed that the wlan it works, on ubuntu the switch doesnt work and so internet it doesn't work with wlan.
[01:13] <thoreauputic> george_looney: you don't need X to do what I suggested
[01:13] <george_looney> I know
[01:13] <thoreauputic> george_looney: ,xsession will work fine
[01:14] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I did cat> .xsession
[01:14] <thoreauputic> and?
[01:14] <mp3guy> I can no longer install xmame-base or xmame-x11 from the repos, it says theres no available versions, and I've tried sudo apt-get update
[01:14] <thoreauputic> george_looney: it isn't magic - you need to mae the file
[01:14] <thoreauputic> *make
[01:14] <george_looney> thoreauputic, hang on aminute let me try something
[01:15] <cute_bettong> can anyone help me to troubleshoot my wireless problem?
[01:15] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I did a "cat > .xsession"
[01:15] <thoreauputic> george_looney: nano ~/,xsession  then add your window manager, then run startx
[01:15] <thoreauputic> hmm .xsession I meant (typo)
[01:16] <SVisor> BananaB: There might by ssh files directly in /etc/ check their perms too.
[01:16] <cute_bettong> :(
[01:16] <SVisor> !wireless
[01:16] <ubotu> Documentation for wireless networking can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs
[01:16] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I have put "exec xfwm4" in my ~/.xsession
[01:16] <BananaB> SVisor, there is one, but permission's are correct
[01:17] <thoreauputic> george_looney: OK - should work I guess although it will be pretty basic
[01:17] <mp3guy> anyone any idea?
[01:17] <farous> hi what is the name of the package that owns glxgears and glxinfo
[01:17] <thoreauputic> !find glxgears
[01:17] <ubotu> No packages matching 'glxgears' could be found
[01:17] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I think I will have to debug my problem one by one
[01:18] <johnZay> is it ok for me to delete everything in /tmp?
[01:18] <thoreauputic> george_looney: I assume you installed x-window-system core and xterm?
[01:18] <thoreauputic> george_looney: if not, your nick is appropriate ;)
[01:19] <Kibou> farous: mesa-utils
[01:19] <farous> thanx Kibou
[01:19] <farous> :)
[01:19] <johnZay> is it ok for me to delete everything in /tmp?
[01:19] <javiolo> hi
[01:19] <george_looney> thoreauputic, Well I have x-window-system-core and xterm
[01:19] <javiolo> is freenx available for ubuntu ppc ?
[01:19] <mp3guy> can anybody help me with this?
[01:20] <thoreauputic> george_looney: Ok try running    startx $(which xterm)
[01:20] <george_looney> thoreauputic, ok
[01:20] <johnZay> is it ok for me to delete everything in /tmp?
[01:20] <thoreauputic> george_looney: that should start X with an xterm - then try starting xfwm from that terminal
[01:20] <SVisor> BananaB: Now Im grasping.. but there are config files in /usr/local/etc/ (on my server, ubuntu might have put em somewhere else). Check them too.
[01:20] <firef0x> i've made a starter to lostirc with terminal, how can I make it stay and still close the terminal automatic after opening.
[01:20] <farous> that was great take care all :)
[01:21] <george_looney> WHOAA
[01:21] <burepe2> dapper 6.06 install cd is also a live cd?
[01:22] <george_looney> thoreauputic, ok it seems the xfwm4 is running
[01:22] <george_looney> no wait
[01:22] <mp3guy> can anybody help me with this?
[01:22] <johnZay> yes... unless you use the alternate install cd which just get stright to the business
[01:22] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I meant I got the xterm
[01:22] <pritisd> jamey, yes i did  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:22] <burepe2> thanks johnZay
[01:22] <thoreauputic> george_looney: so start xfwm4 from that term
[01:22] <johnZay> alternate saves a lot of time
[01:22] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I did
[01:22] <johnZay> yer welcome :-)
[01:22] <thoreauputic> george_looney: it;s just another X app
[01:23] <johnZay> is it ok for me to delete everything in /tmp?
[01:23] <BananaB> SVisor, checked all them
[01:23] <george_looney> thoreauputic, it still just changes the xterm look n feel
[01:23] <kbrooks> Question
[01:23] <johnZay> come on someone... please anser :-)
[01:23] <thoreauputic> george_looney: what exactly were you expecting?
[01:23] <george_looney> thoreauputic, but I still only see the X root window
[01:23] <gnomefreak> johnZay: it should be i guess it depends what you have put there
[01:23] <kbrooks> Shall I remove Java from EasyUbuntu for Dapper?
[01:23] <thoreauputic> george_looney: xfwm4 is pretty basic
[01:23] <Arafangi1n> kbrooks: Why?
[01:24] <johnZay> is there a way to steal space from a ntfs partition?
[01:24] <george_looney> thoreauputic, where are the other xfwm4 helper apps
[01:24] <kbrooks> Arafangi1n: because it's in the repos now.
[01:24] <gnomefreak> Arafangi1n: because its in the repos
[01:24] <SVisor> BananaB: sshd_config tells which ones it uses. Should not be that hard. I installed it from source and worked at once.
[01:24] <gnomefreak> johnZay: resize it?
[01:24] <thoreauputic> george_looney: xfwm4 s just the window manager - maybe you want xfce4
[01:24] <johnZay> yeah resize tyhat and make my ubuntu bigger.. (preferably without losing anything)
[01:25] <Arafangi1n> kbrooks: I take that as a sign that Java is _finally_ becoming a decent program environment.
[01:25] <george_looney> thoreauputic, CRAP
[01:25] <thoreauputic> george_looney: have you ever don this kind of thing before?
[01:25] <Ng> Arafangi1n: all that changed is the license, java is still java
[01:25] <thoreauputic> *done
[01:25] <thoreauputic> I suspect not...
[01:25] <george_looney> thoreauputic, there is a xfdesptop4 package /SIGH/
[01:25] <kbrooks> do you think I should remove it from EasyUbuntu?
[01:25] <Arafangi1n> Ng: Java is also getting better.
[01:25] <kbrooks> robotgeek is MIA
[01:25] <thoreauputic> george_looney: what are you trying to accomplish ?
[01:25] <gnomefreak> george_looney: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will give you xfce4
[01:26] <thoreauputic> george_looney: I think you are confused
[01:26] <Ng> kbrooks: perhaps change it so it just installs from the repositories
[01:26] <kbrooks> MIA =missing in actions
[01:26] <kbrooks> Ng: we did.
[01:26] <firef0x> hey geeks, need som help :)
[01:26] <Arafangi1n> Ng: Java 1.2 was nothing short of a joke, 1.4 was probably the tipping point, and 1.5 is when it's finally getting decent.  1.6's binary distribution is much better, afaik.
[01:26] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: apparently he thinks all that is bloat ;p
[01:26] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I think I have really gone *looney*
[01:26] <BananaB> what's the command to install from source as opposed to binary with apt-get?
[01:26] <gnomefreak> lol thoreauputic well than he will be installing alot of crap by hand ;)
[01:26] <bsg> how could be called ethernet card in /dev ?
[01:27] <thoreauputic> george_looney: heh - as I implied :)
[01:27] <BananaB> or is it always source?
[01:27] <kbrooks> bsg: eth0 is special
[01:27] <bsg> so?
[01:27] <george_looney> thoreauputic, well I got it now I guess
[01:27] <Ng> BananaB: apt-get source somepackagename     you can add -b if you want it to start the build process for you
[01:27] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: it's as simple as sudo apt-get install x-window-system-core xterm fluxbox ;)
[01:27] <kbrooks> BananaB: well, you can get the source for a package, and the build dependencies too
[01:27] <javiolo> !freenx
[01:27] <ubotu> freenx is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeNX
[01:28] <mprasodjo> hi anyone here can help me about creating custom cd installation
[01:28] <george_looney> thoreauputic, always fun after a fresh install of any Linux distro ;)
[01:28] <thoreauputic> george_looney: methinks you jumped in at the deep end :)
[01:28] <Hoxzer> javiolo: NX is just so GOOOD
[01:28] <Arafangi1n> javiolo: Does freenx have rootless mode yet?
[01:28] <SVisor> BananaB: Dont know apt-get. Im a .tar dude (I extend myself to use the funky install app in Ubuntu tho).
[01:28] <eliomarinofox> ciao
[01:29] <javiolo> is freenx available for ppc ??
[01:29] <thoreauputic> Arafangi1n: you can run freenx fullscreen
[01:29] <kbrooks> everyone: i'd really like either "yes" or "no". i'm not going to make this decision myself
[01:29] <george_looney> thoreauputic, not really, I *love* the deep end
[01:29] <eliomarinofox> doves sono?
[01:29] <BananaB> SVisor, I was too, but was strongly warded away from that kind of install when I first started using ubuntu
[01:29] <thoreauputic> george_looney: well OK - in that case read the docs ;)
[01:29] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I am a little fussy about extra crud
[01:29] <gnomefreak> javiolo: i doubt it
[01:29] <kbrooks> Should I remove Java from EasyUbuntu?
[01:29] <Ng> SVisor: learn apt-get, it makes life far easier for most things :)
[01:29] <thoreauputic> george_looney: a master of understatement
[01:29] <george_looney> thoreauputic, so I try my very best to keep them out :)
[01:30] <thoreauputic> george_looney: it helps to have a clue what you are doing though :)
[01:30] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I must say seeing all that gnome stuff getting installed
[01:30] <kbrooks> everyone: i'd really like either "yes" or "no". i'm not going to make this decision myself
[01:30] <kbrooks> Should I remove Java from EasyUbuntu?
[01:30] <george_looney> thoreauputic, ....is making me very uncomfortable
[01:30] <Ng> george_looney: xfce uses some parts of gnome
[01:30] <Sonderblade> kbrooks: why?
[01:30] <Ng> kbrooks: I think you should stop asking that question ;)
[01:30] <gnomefreak> george_looney: because xfce like gnome depends on the same libraries
[01:30] <BananaB> kbrooks: no
[01:31] <SVisor> Ng: Too old to learn things. I do use the add/remove software application. When it fails, I use .tar
[01:31] <ompaul> kbrooks, given it is now in a repo what do you think is logical
[01:31] <Ng> SVisor: there's no such thing as too old ;p
[01:31] <firef0x> i've made a starter to lostirc with terminal, how can I make it stay and still close the terminal automatic after opening.
[01:31] <kbrooks> ompaul: Remove it? :-)
[01:31] <thoreauputic> george_looney: as many made me uncomfortable a few years ago :) If you want the deep end, you got it :) *grin*
[01:31] <george_looney> gnomefreak, I know that
[01:32] <ompaul> kbrooks, yes and if you want to tell people they can get it with a multiverse enabled set of repos and offer to enable that if it is not already done
[01:32] <george_looney> maybe I should get back to Debian :/
[01:33] <Arafangi1n> kbrooks: If the easyubuntu version is functionally identical, make it an 'equivs', and if you can link it to the "real" version in latest Ubuntu, you could.
[01:33] <thoreauputic> george_looney: there's no difference - you still have to know what you actually need and want
[01:33] <thoreauputic> george_looney: I'm ex-Debian myself :)
[01:33] <ompaul> george_looney, ubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop are pretty sensible
[01:34] <thoreauputic> ompaul: he thinks they are bloated :)
[01:34] <BananaB> would xubuntu give me a noticably speed boost on an ATI Rage?
[01:34] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I was looking for IceWM
[01:34] <thoreauputic> ompaul: but he doesn't know how o set up a minimal install
[01:34] <BananaB> as in moving from normal ubuntu?
[01:34] <bsg> kbrooks: why eth0 is special, can I access it from nomral user?
[01:34] <gnomefreak> !info icewm
[01:34] <ubotu> icewm: wonderful Win95-OS/2-Motif-like window manager. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.2.23-3ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 629 kB, installed size 1632 kB

[01:35] <kbrooks> !info java
[01:35] <ubotu> Package java does not exist in dapper
[01:35] <george_looney> thoreauputic, for I think I will settle for Xubuntu
[01:35] <thoreauputic> george_looney: sounds sensible
[01:35] <ompaul> kbrooks, think for a moment
[01:35] <kbrooks> ompaul: ?
[01:35] <ompaul> kbrooks, I hand you packages.ubuntu.com for your exploration
[01:35] <thoreauputic> george_looney: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[01:36] <george_looney> thoreauputic, thats whats on right now :)
[01:38] <george_looney> lastlog ompaul
[01:38] <george_looney> ooops
[01:38] <george_looney> sorry :D
[01:38] <ompaul> george_looney, I hope your not in there on my machine ;-)
[01:38] <george_looney> ompaul, nopes dude
[01:39] <george_looney> great stuff I don't need is getting installed as well
[01:39] <george_looney> ...Anthy - Japanese input method!!!!
[01:40] <Arafangi1n> Linux From Scratch, or large File Support.
[01:40] <gnomefreak> george_looney: blank kernel
[01:41] <kbrooks> gnomefreak: False.
[01:41] <kbrooks> Arafangi1n: not "large file support": False
[01:41] <javiolo> any way to install freenx on ppc ?
[01:42] <george_looney> lfs = "Load Full Shit"
[01:42] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: whats false?
[01:42] <kbrooks> george_looney: language
[01:42] <gnomefreak> LFS is a build your own distro
[01:43] <george_looney> kbrooks, sorry
[01:43] <george_looney> There are better things than LFS now
[01:44] <thoreauputic> george_looney: of course if ou have a debian background you know all about apt-cache search, and you know exactly how to put together a minimal install , right ? *grin*
[01:44] <burepe2> I just bought a used comp from a good store and it won't even boot into bios. Is it just broken?
[01:45] <root_>

[01:45] <root_> this is korea
[01:45] <Arafangi1n> burepe2: Not having an OS means nothing.
[01:45] <thoreauputic> george_looney: so why are you lost?
[01:46] <eigenlambda> lol @ korea
[01:46] <root_> what?

[01:46] <george_looney> thoreauputic, I did a lot 'apt-get' simulations and all were listing loads of packages
[01:46] <thoreauputic> someone needs to correct the 'all knowing bot" factoid
[01:46] <burepe2> SeanTater: what do you mean ?
[01:46] <Arafangi1n> SeanTater: What would that do? He can't even boot to the BIOS on that machine.
[01:47] <burepe2> I can't even get pows to the box

[01:49] <SeanTater> burepe2: but I don;t know a whole lot about the hardware -- so I'm just guessing
[01:49] <orbin> Arafangi1n: stop being such a wise guy :P
[01:50] <SeanTater> burepe2: If i were you I would nag the place you got it from.

[01:51] <george_looney> Someone call the RIAA
[01:51] <Rarj> can someone help me install SQL server ?
[01:51] <SeanTater> Wise-Guy: read here -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeFormats
[01:51] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: Which one?
[01:51] <bimberi> thoreauputic: it's the new ubotu ...
[01:51] <george_looney> Fresh meat for them /LOL/
[01:51] <thoreauputic> Arafangi1n: ubotu is a new bot to replace the former ubotu
[01:51] <Wise-Guy> ok, reading
[01:51] <thoreauputic> bimberi: yeah I know :)
[01:51] <NET||abuse> ahhhh... hahahahaha... i love my lappy!! i love xgl.. i love nix... this stuff just works so well...
[01:51] <Rarj> Arafangi1n, im just trying apt-get install sql. it doesnt work :(
[01:51] <bimberi> thoreauputic: ah, sorry, hi btw :)
[01:51] <schalken> Is it possible to get Firefox to use the Gtk widgets in HTML forms?
[01:51] <NET||abuse> i seriously love the Places -> Connect to Server
[01:51] <thoreauputic> bimberi: the new ubotu has much to learn :)
[01:52] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: What do you think it should do?
[01:52] <gnomefreak> Rarj: sudo apt-get install mysql
[01:52] <thoreauputic> bimberi: hi :)
[01:52] <SeanTater> thoreauputic: how has he changed other than saying "I know nothing about"?
[01:52] <Rarj> yes. thats what i did. sorry
[01:52] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: Ironically, MS SQL server does not actually speak standard SQL.
[01:52] <SeanTater> thoreauputic: is me a different bot completely?
[01:52] <Rarj> but it said ut refers to another package
[01:52] <Rarj> ok
[01:52] <thoreauputic> SeanTater: he needs to have a lot of his former wisdom restored :)
[01:52] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: But naturally, they continue to brand it as being _the_ SQL server/
[01:52] <NET||abuse> anyone know what i can use for vpn'ing?
[01:53] <NET||abuse> need to vpn to windows RAS in another office.
[01:53] <thoreauputic> SeanTater: yes, a new program/bot
[01:53] <Rarj> Arafangi1n, :-). So how do I get it on my system ?
[01:53] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: Well, I'd start by choosing an SQL server that you want.
[01:53] <SeanTater> thoreauputic: neat
[01:53] <gnomefreak> !info mysql
[01:53] <hugh_> Rarj: mysql-server
[01:53] <Rarj> ahh... ok
[01:53] <thoreauputic> SeanTater: not the wrd I would have used, since he has all the signs of a recent lobotomy :)
[01:53] <george_looney> NET||abuse, look for the PPTP linux client
[01:54] <Arafangi1n> Rarj: There's a number of choices, there's MySQL, Postgresql (My favorite), and there's also the Oracle server, though that's proprietary.
[01:54] <thoreauputic> *word
[01:54] <NET||abuse> george_looney, ahhh... that sounds familiar,, i think i set this up last year some time.... havn't re-visited since ! cheers :)
[01:54] <SeanTater> thoreauputic: :D
[01:54] <hugh_> Rarj: It should also install with it mysql-common & mysql-client

[01:55] <Rarj> hugh, thats what i tried. it did install something...
[01:55] <juanca7777_> I would like to know how to "write" to the root-window of metacity
[01:55] <Rarj> mysqld doesnt do anything
[01:55] <juanca7777_> any tutos or pointers?
[01:55] <Belutz> anyone using ubuntu - bluetooth - mobile phone ?
[01:55] <hugh_> Rarj: you have php* installed?
[01:56] <Rarj> im not very smart with linux... just starting out..
[01:56] <Rarj> yes
[01:56] <Rarj> apache2 and php5 installed without a whimper.
[01:56] <hugh_> Rarj: try sudo apt-get mysql-common
[01:56] <DrShade> Hello everybody.  I just installed Ubuntu 6.06, gotta say I'm impressed (except for it choosing to default to 640x480 res with a supposed refresh of -212 something thousand).
[01:56] <hugh_> Rarj, woops. apt-get mysql-common mysql-client
[01:57] <oskude> DrShade, i assume you got lappy with ati chip ?
[01:57] <Rarj> ok
[01:57] <NET||abuse> i've got pptp-linux installed now.. is there a front end for use with it
[01:57] <NET||abuse> ?
[01:57] <plagerism> How would I find out the options for a particular input device??
[01:57] <DrShade> oskude, close...desktop computer with a ATI 9700 Pro and Dell 2001FP LCD monitor.
[01:57] <plagerism> in xorg
[01:58] <oskude> DrShade, ok, you can install the ati binary driver
[01:58] <boricua> why would i have 2 gdm process running ?  root      4115  0.0  0.7  10904  1796 ?        Ss   05:38   0:00 /usr/sbin/gdm

[01:59] <thoreauputic> SeanTater: i don't make policy - I just work here
[01:59] <thoreauputic> ;-)
[01:59] <oskude> DrShade, you could start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto and ask here if any problems...
[02:01] <onispawn> Belutz: what are you trying to do with your bluetooth and mobile phone?
[02:01] <juanca7777_> I would like to know how to "write" to the root-window of metacity
[02:01] <DrShade> oskude, would that be: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx and then an xorg reconfigure?
[02:01] <oskude> DrShade, exactly
[02:01] <orbin> juanca7777_: maybe you'd get more help in #gnome
[02:02] <juanca7777_> orbin: thanks :)
[02:02] <DrShade> oskude, okay kewl because that is what fixed it ;) Just wanted to make sure I did the right solution, hehe!
[02:02] <bimberi> thoreauputic: feeble!
[02:02] <Rarj> does the dapper server version come with Xserver ?
[02:02] <oskude> DrShade, you just need to start x new for the driver to work (or maybe even restart=
[02:02] <thoreauputic> bimberi: perhaps you need to adjust your irony filter ;p
[02:03] <Belutz> onispawn: i'm trying to change the default savedir when sending files from mobile phone to pc, i read that i could be change from gconf editor, but i can't find the key /apps/gnome-bluetooth/gnome-obex-server
[02:03] <DrShade> oskude, yeah, I just did those two commands and then restarted, fixed.
[02:03] <oskude> DrShade, super
[02:03] <burepe2> Ah! it was the cord!
[02:04] <bimberi> thoreauputic: :)
[02:04] <oskude> Rarj, im sure its in the repos, but i wount be installed by standard
[02:04] <oskude> i=it
[02:04] <Schalken> Is it possible to have Firefox use the Gtk widgets for HTML forms?
[02:05] <Schalken> Instead of those plain 3d buttons, textboxes etc that look worse than windows 3.1?
[02:05] <kallei> im trying to install wine:   sudo apt-get install wine   Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.  ???
[02:05] <Rarj> oksude, i did a apt-get dist-upgrade and it removed all of Xserver
[02:05] <Rarj> how do i get it back ?
[02:05] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell kallei -about wine
[02:05] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell kallei -about wine
[02:05] <gnomefreak> !tell kallei > wine
[02:05] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell kallei
[02:05] <oskude> Rarj, hmm, you installed a server and then installed what to get x ?
[02:05] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: frustrating, isn't it?
[02:05] <gnomefreak> yes
[02:06] <gnomefreak> brb
[02:06] <Schalken> ubotu tell kallei about wine
[02:06] <gnomefreak> !wine
[02:06] <Rarj> oksude, nothing... I sat with the command prompt grinning at me..
[02:06] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more information.
[02:06] <Rarj> oksude, no xserver
[02:06] <Schalken> i think thats what you were trying to do, gnomefreak
[02:06] <Schalken> :p
[02:07] <Schalken> Is it possible to have Firefox use the Gtk widgets for HTML forms instead of the plain ugly 3d ones?
[02:07] <hugh_> Rarj, Dapper comes with xserver
[02:07] <oskude> Rarj, you asked if ubuntu server has x... so i assumed you installed ubuntu server...
[02:07] <thoreauputic> Schalken: yes, but the old ubotu would have had no problems with !tell
[02:07] <gnomefreak> Schalken: not really but yes ty
[02:07] <gnomefreak> lol
[02:07] <gnomefreak> !wine > thoreauputic
[02:07] <kallei> i read something in the forums about  universial repos? but i belive i have enabled them.   i have in my synaptic  a  entry:   Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper Community maintained Officially supported  Restricted Copyright Non-free (Multiverse)   is that the wrong one?
[02:07] <Rarj> oksude, sorry. I saw the upgrade remove Xserver. thats why
[02:08] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: had syntax wrong lol
[02:08] <QPAD|W-DND> How do i see incomming bandwidth on my server? and out going ?
[02:08] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: yes, that one worked
[02:08] <Rarj> hugh, it didnt install by default
[02:08] <gnomefreak> and it didnt send me one happy now
[02:08] <bimberi> interesting equation
[02:08] <hugh_> ???
[02:08] <kallei> ah way it now, thanks for the ubotu stuff...
[02:08] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: I think the old syntax should work too, though - personally
[02:08] <Schalken> QPAD|W-DND: the GNOME System monitor can show you that
[02:08] <oskude> Rarj, well, i still dont know _what_ you installed, and _where_ you dist-upgraded...
[02:08] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: too many people are going to be confused
[02:09] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: asking about it
[02:09] <gharz> guys, i've just mounted my windows ntfs partition. the problem is i can't browse it using File Browser but i can go to my ntfs using the command line.
[02:09] <Schalken> QPAD|W-DND: System -> Administration -> System Monitor then go to the Resources tab.
[02:09] <hugh_> Rarj, I have just installed this new system and it has xserver-xorg
[02:09] <hugh_> Rarj, What are you trying to do?
[02:10] <bastiq> does anyone know how i can dualboot vista and ubuntu dapper?
[02:10] <thoreauputic> argh... vista :(
[02:10] <hugh_> bastiq, yes
[02:10] <LadyNikon> bastiq: its easy
[02:10] <Schalken> bastiq: im sure its about as easy as windows xp
[02:10] <LadyNikon> although i dont really think you wanna do that bastiq
[02:10] <bastiq> it doesent appear in grub
[02:11] <LadyNikon> vista is still beta.  it could hose your machine terribly
[02:11] <hugh_> Why would you want to use anything other than Ubuntu
[02:11] <hugh_> ?
[02:11] <Schalken> bastiq: unless M$ implements some sort of not-allowed-to-have-another-operating-system-on-your-computer-because-M$-owns-all sort of thing
[02:11] <LadyNikon> hugh_: why  not ;)
[02:11] <bastiq> hugh_: Photoshop :)
[02:11] <hugh_> GIMP
[02:11] <BlueEagle> hugh_: Toys are always fun to play with. :)
[02:11] <whalerus> Why do Firefox crash in some java/flash games?, i have asked some others, they dont, my computer runs smooth otherwise. Dapper Drake
[02:11] <kallei> http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/dists/dapper/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found  ??
[02:12] <bastiq> I use vista because i lost my xp cd
[02:12] <gnomefreak> whalerus: do you have java and flash plugins installed for ff?
[02:12] <bimberi> BlueEagle: lol
[02:12] <whalerus> gnomefreak, yes
[02:12] <hugh_> I like Linux. I don't like Windows. WIndows is slow, buggy and doesn't do what I want it to.
[02:12] <gnomefreak> windows talk please bring it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:12] <hugh_> Vista BETA2 is a toy and a crash prone one at that
[02:13] <Rarj> oksude, i did a dist-upgrade of dapper-server dist on breezy
[02:13] <tripppy> gnomefreak: can you help with screensaver picutres slideshow?
[02:13] <gnomefreak> hugh_: #ubuntu-offtopic to continue
[02:13] <bastiq> hugh_: Im slowly trying to learn enough about linux to stop using windows, but it takes time.
[02:13] <Rarj> hugh, basically im trying to get a dapper desktop with LAMP.
[02:13] <bastiq> hugh_: And i have work to do.
[02:13] <gnomefreak> tripppy: ill try whats up?
[02:13] <hugh_> bastiq, yes, it does. </topix>

[02:13] <DrShade> Hi gang, what is the default mount point for ntfs drives in 6.06?  This would be on a fresh install.
[02:14] <Amaranth> !alacarte is a menu editor
[02:14] <BlueEagle> drshade: You would probably find it in /media
[02:14] <Amaranth> (tested something)
[02:14] <Amaranth> err, testing
[02:14] <gnomefreak> lol
[02:14] <tripppy> im trying to change the directory that the pictures are scanned for
[02:14] <gnomefreak> arrai: try <reply>
[02:14] <whalerus> gnomefreak: how can i debug this ?
[02:14] <hugh_> Rarj, do you have the GUI at the moment
[02:14] <asabil> hi all
[02:15] <gharz> guys, i've mounted my windows partition but i can't browse using File Browser... but i can see the partition using Terminal (Command line)...
[02:15] <Lukian> What's the easiest way to access a remote desktop (over vnc) which is currently logged in (or which I can login to a user's default desktop), I have root access via ssh to the box.
[02:15] <gharz> what could be wrong?
[02:15] <gnomefreak> whalerus: the java and flash issue?
[02:15] <asabil> is there any ubuntu large scale deployment doc out there ?
[02:15] <Rarj> hugh, nopes. just a command prompt
[02:15] <whalerus> gnomefreak: yes
[02:15] <kallei> i added  deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main   to  my sources.list   but i cant Reload in synaptic, it  wount find the repo ?
[02:15] <tripppy> gnomefreak: im trying to change the directory that the pictures are scanned for
[02:15] <hugh_> Rarj, I havn't done this in a while...
[02:15] <Rarj> hugh, the dist-upgrade removed the gui..
[02:15] <gnomefreak> whalerus: in ff address bar type about:plugins  let me know if java and flash have yes next to them
[02:15] <DrShade> BlueEagle, I probably skewed that question, some terminology was off a bit, thanks though!
[02:15] <hugh_> Rarj, What while a build a list of packages to install
[02:16] <whalerus> gnomefreak: they do, i have both installed, restricted packages
[02:16] <BlueEagle> drshade: Well no harm, no foul. :)
[02:16] <gnomefreak> tripppy: that i dont know you can use cp or mv but the software would contol where a scanner saves photos
[02:16] <BlueEagle> ...and you're welcome.
[02:16] <Rarj> hugh, didnt understand your question.
[02:16] <gnomefreak> whalerus: maybe its not either that crashing ff what versioon of ff?
[02:16] <whalerus> gnomefreak: the strange thing is that that it works in Suse and others, only Dapper have this problem
[02:16] <Pxtl> Linux n00b here.  Can anyone help me get xorg to work with my voodoo2?
[02:17] <hugh_> Rarj, I wam just working out what you need to install
[02:17] <hugh_> *am
[02:17] <Rarj> hugh, oh sorry
[02:17] <bastiq> So... anyone know of a way to dualboot vista and ubuntu?
[02:17] <gnomefreak> whalerus: what is outptu of java --version
[02:17] <asabil> is there any ubuntu large scale deployment doc out there ?
[02:17] <tripppy> gnomefreak: can you help with screensaver picutres slideshow? - i want to change the folder. /usr/share/gnome-screensaver/themes/personal-slideshow.desktop i think has the settings
[02:17] <whalerus> gnomefreak: its the latest, 06
[02:17] <gnomefreak> bastiq: install vista than install ubuntu
[02:17] <Pxtl> I'm getting a "failed to load module glide"
[02:18] <gnomefreak> whalerus: lol thats not lastest but ok
[02:18] <Pxtl> but every glide module I can google I've tried to apt get and it complains there's no such thing.
[02:18] <bastiq> gnomefreak, i have
[02:18] <gnomefreak> whalerus: im not sure give me a site it crashes on
[02:18] <oskude> Pxtl, have you installed this "xserver-xorg-driver-voodoo" ? if that is for voodoo2...
[02:18] <whalerus> gnomefreak: brb
[02:18] <gnomefreak> bastiq: did ubuntu see vista and add it to grub?
[02:18] <whalerus> gnomefreak: http://www.casinoeuro.com/no/flash/fullflash.jsp?game=jackpot6k
[02:18] <mattikoo> Hello: I think I have worm in my ubuntu, but aegis allways freezes when I try check all of the system
[02:18] <bastiq> gnomefreak: i can't see it in grub when i boot...
[02:19] <gnomefreak> mattikoo: not a worm
[02:19] <oskude> Pxtl, i allso found this "xserver-xorg-driver-tdfx" with "apt-cache search voodoo"
[02:19] <hugh_> Rarj, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-standard. That might do it. I will keep looking.
[02:19] <Pxtl> already got tdfx
[02:19] <mattikoo> gnomefreak: W32 Something
[02:19] <FeeR^> anyone able to get fancontrol/pwmconfig to work?  i've got fans running at full blast for no reason
[02:19] <Rarj> hugh, ok thanks a lot
[02:19] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell bastiq about grub
[02:19] <Pxtl> and xerver-xorg-driver-voodoo2
[02:19] <oskude> hmm, "man tdfx" says "The  tdfx  driver  supports Voodoo Banshee, Voodoo3, Voodoo4 and Voodoo5
[02:19] <oskude>        cards"
[02:19] <Pxtl> and xerver-xorg-driver-voodoo, even.
[02:19] <Pxtl> not voodoo2
[02:20] <gnomefreak> whalerus: paste what about:plugins page says please
[02:20] <gnomefreak> whalerus: in pastebin
[02:20] <whalerus> im not in Dapper now
[02:20] <XVampireX> Aegis? And linux barely has any virus'/worms/whatever
[02:20] <oskude> what do you have as "driver" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[02:20] <oskude> Pxtl, what do you have as "driver" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[02:20] <gnomefreak> whalerus: the page opens fine for me
[02:20] <gnomefreak> whalerus: i dont think you have flash or java installed right
[02:21] <whalerus> gnomefreak: they are
[02:21] <XVampireX> mattikoo, And W32 stands for?
[02:21] <Pxtl> lemme check oskude
[02:21] <oskude> Pxtl, but "man voodoo" allso says "3D rendering is also not supported" so if youre looking for that...
[02:21] <gnomefreak> whalerus: please paste the about:plugins page to pastebin
[02:21] <whalerus> gnomefreak: the game loads perfektly to the moment it actually should start
[02:22] <mattikoo> XVampireX: I must start scan again without archive check. I will say name of the virus or something.
[02:22] <kral> hi
[02:22] <MistaED> pxtl: have in mind the voodoo+voodoo2 doesn't have any 2D capabilities so it might only support drm/dri redirection stuff from your main video card
[02:22] <XVampireX> mattikoo, W32 stands for windows 32bit or something like that, it's a virus/worm directed at windows, it does NOT work on linux based OS
[02:22] <DrShade> BlueEagle, another question if you don't mind, I read on the Ubuntu Wiki site that ntfs parts are auto detected/mounted by Ubuntu - I'm not finding this to be the case.  The Disks Manager utility shows the partition to be mounted in /tmp/disks-conf-hda1 - is that normal?
[02:22] <whalerus> gnomefreak: video card issue perhaps? built in Intel 915G
[02:22] <whalerus> shared video memory
[02:22] <gnomefreak> whalerus: it works fine for me and i have both java nad flash installed properly (i have to to help people)
[02:22] <Pxtl> oskude, grepping for "Driver" gives me "Glide"
[02:22] <gnomefreak> whalerus: it could be but not likely
[02:22] <whalerus> np, :)
[02:22] <mattikoo> XVampireX: It is not impossible?
[02:23] <gnomefreak> whalerus: if it was it would affect all GUI interfaces
[02:23] <XVampireX> mattikoo, I hate people thinking linux is windows
[02:23] <whalerus> thanks anyway, gonna buy Nvidia soon.
[02:23] <oskude> Pxtl, you should have "voodoo" as driver
[02:23] <BlueEagle> drshade: I've only used kubuntu and xubuntu dapper, but I find it hard to believe that such partitions would be mounted under /tmp. Did you specify mount points during the install?
[02:23] <Pxtl> Should I just pull out the voodoo?
[02:23] <Rarj> I have Quake 3 registered version for Windows, Is there anyway to use it in linux ?
[02:23] <Pxtl> I mean, the only thing it's there for is openGL
[02:23] <mattikoo> ok
[02:23] <bastiq> gnomefreak: I can't find anything of use there.
[02:24] <Lukian> What's the easiest way to access a remote desktop (over vnc) which is currently logged in (or which I can login to a user's default desktop)?
[02:24] <Pxtl> I've got a Rage Pro in there too.
[02:24] <DrShade> BlueEagle, negative.
[02:24] <oskude> Pxtl, as i said voodoo driver dont have any 3d accelleration, so it wont have opengl...
[02:24] <kallei> can someone answer why i get   http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/dists/dapper/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found   when trying to Reload synaptic ?? i have done exactly as instructed on the winehq site
[02:24] <mprasodjo> anyone here know how to replace or adding modules parameter at grub prompt (boot from installation cd)
[02:24] <kral> damn..dapper is easy to install xp is harder :p
[02:24] <Lukian> kallei: there probably aren't any packages for amd64
[02:24] <Pxtl> rats.  Allright, in that case I may as well pull the damn thing out.
[02:25] <corhere> I have reason to believe that my partition table is really screwed up. Should I be concerned?
[02:25] <oskude> Pxtl, yeah, buy cheap nvidia geforce
[02:25] <hugh_> mprasojo, if you want to boot from cd you need to edit you BIOS
[02:25] <kallei> hmm well  can i run  wine on amd64?
[02:25] <Pxtl> The old box is PCI only.
[02:25] <mprasodjo> kral, 1 week to install dapper at ibm xseries but still not working
[02:25] <corhere> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16071
[02:25] <Lukian> corhere: what is determining your reasoing?
[02:25] <gnomefreak> bastiq: you need to manully add vista to grub and i think 2 of the 3 sites ubotu sent you should be of help
[02:25] <Pxtl> Thats why there's a POS rage pro in there.
[02:25] <hugh_> mprasodjo, if you want to boot from cd you need to edit you BIOS
[02:25] <corhere> look at the paste
[02:25] <oskude> Pxtl, there arent any pci geforces ?
[02:25] <corhere> the partitions are overlapping
[02:25] <symtab> hi, i'm using ubuntu 6.06 and i was wondering is there some tool to remove/add initialization scripts, it needs a lot of time to start and i want to remove some stuff i dont need
[02:25] <Pxtl> Dunno, but they're hard to find.
[02:25] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i mean i want to add modules parameter
[02:25] <oskude> Pxtl, try ebay, maybe you get for 5bucks :)
[02:25] <gnomefreak> oskude: there better be i have one
[02:26] <oskude> gnomefreak, roger
[02:26] <Lukian> kallei: should be able to, you'll just need the 32bit libraries and the usual wine
[02:26] <DrShade> But, here is the final line from "mount" output: /dev/hda1 on /tmp/disks-conf-hda1 type ntfs (rw)
[02:26] <dope> im having trouble changing my resolution from 640x480 on Dapper, any suggestions?
[02:26] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i want to install dapper but it need to add parameter at some modules that already included in initrd
[02:27] <hugh_> mprasodjo, do you have the CD? Will it boot off the CD?
[02:27] <michael> Hello all this is my first time using linux can i have some help with the theme's?
[02:27] <dope> 955resolution isnt working for me
[02:27] <mprasodjo> hugh_, yes.. it boot from cd. but the problem is i have to put parameter for aic94xx modules
[02:28] <hugh_> micheal,System>Preferences>The,e
[02:28] <hugh_> Theme*
[02:28] <michael> I know that
[02:28] <michael> I mean
[02:28] <bastiq> In menu.lst try to find another partition on hd0,0. I want to make sure that that is there vista really is. How can i do that?
[02:28] <oskude> dope, dunno how you do it with gui, but you can either edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file or run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and it ask you for all possible settings
[02:28] <michael> i see some images showing a cool theme having showing there tempretature on the desktop and more things about the pc
[02:28] <hugh_> michael, art.gnome.org or gnome-looks.org
[02:29] <hugh_> mprasodjo, I don't that would be GRUb
[02:29] <dope> oskdude, i've done all of that, tweaked the xorg.conf to no end. im using the 845G intel chipset
[02:29] <hugh_> michael, right click on a panel then select add to panel
[02:29] <dope> i was told 955resolution should help fix this issues, but it hasnt
[02:30] <oskude> dope, and you got the resolution you want as most left on the line ? (in /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[02:30] <michael> Which panel;?
[02:30] <corhere> dope: run sudo ddcprobe and find the horizontal and vertical refresh rate ranges
[02:30] <corhere> and put those into xorg.conf
[02:30] <mprasodjo> hugh_,  that's a problem. i need to put some parameter to make it working with my hardware. but still i can not found how to replace that parameter that already added by grub
[02:30] <hugh_> michael, what panel do you want the app to be on
[02:31] <michael> What u mean? i just want my pc tempreature and all them things on the desktop :-S
[02:31] <dope> oskude: alright
[02:31] <dungodung> my 5.10 is bugging me - it wants me to provide a keyring password for my ssh server when I want to take a screenshot. what's worse, the password is rejected, even though it's correct
[02:31] <oskude> dope, corhere, oh yeah. those are allso important, you mostly find the v/h rates of your monitor from its manual or website
[02:31] <hugh_> mprasodjo, all GRUB does is tell where to boot from
[02:31] <kallei> Lukian:   what 32bit libs?
[02:31] <l_r> hello
[02:31] <mshiltonj> morning.I did a system update in dapper, upgraded to kernel version  2.6.15-25. After rebooting -- I have no sound! Anyone else had this problem?
[02:31] <corhere> oskdude and dope, you can find the ranges thru ddcprobe
[02:31] <dope> oskude: it gave me the vertical and horiz
[02:31] <l_r> is there any package for kernel 2.6.17 somewhere?
[02:32] <Amaranth> nope
[02:32] <oskude> dope, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg can allso (try to) find the right rates, but didnt work with my monitor
[02:32] <michael> Like this one hugh_ http://adrenochromo.it/immagini/galleria/ubuntu03.png
[02:32] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i want to install dapper at ibm xseries 306m that using raid. the raid  can not recognize by aic94xx without parameter attach_HostRAID=1.
[02:32] <DrShade> Anybody can tell me my ntfs partition hard-drive is being auto mounted to /tmp/disks-conf-hda1 ?
[02:32] <Amaranth> l_r: 2.6.17 will be in edgy
[02:32] <DrShade> why*
[02:32] <Amaranth> l_r: i doubt it'll ever see dapper but 5 years is a long time so who knows
[02:32] <l_r> Amaranth, i need it for dapper 6.06. any idea?
[02:32] <l_r> ok
[02:32] <Amaranth> l_r: make-kpkg and kernel.org
[02:32] <chavo> michael, sudo apt-get install gdesklets
[02:32] <asabil> is there any ubuntu large scale deployment doc out there ?
[02:32] <dope> oskude: i edited my xorg.conf with the correct rates
[02:32] <hugh_> mprasodjo, RAID that makes it a bit more difficult
[02:32] <mprasodjo> hugh_, that's the problem i have to put that parameter. but look like aic94xx modules already put in initrd.
[02:32] <dope> should i reboot
[02:32] <orbin> DrShade: check your /etc/fstab file
[02:33] <l_r> Amaranth, ok. thanks. i'll do by myself
[02:33] <Amaranth> l_r: or wait until 2.6.17 is in edgy and try to backport it
[02:33] <michael> k
[02:33] <interferon> when i install from the amd64 livecd, will all of the packages i get through apt-get be 64-bit only?
[02:33] <Amaranth> interferon: yeah, for the most part
[02:33] <DrShade> orbin, nothing listed in there about hda1
[02:33] <Amaranth> interferon: there are some ia32-libs packages
[02:33] <oskude> dope, no, you just need to restart gdm "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" or restart directly from gnome with ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:33] <michael> Breezy Badger :-)
[02:33] <Amaranth> interferon: but actual programs are 64-bit
[02:33] <interferon> Amaranth, i'd really rather avoid the hassle of 64-bit programs
[02:34] <corhere> Here is my partition table: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16071 With the overlapping partitions is there any chance of data corruption?
[02:34] <dope> oskude: ok
[02:34] <mprasodjo> hugh_, yes :(. i need a week to make this machine boot up. with many manual thinks to doo
[02:34] <Amaranth> interferon: Then use the x86 version of ubuntu
[02:34] <interferon> Amaranth, well, the x86 cd won't run.  i'm downloading the amd64 cd to see if that works
[02:34] <Lukian> kallei: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libc6-i386
[02:35] <SeanTater> interferon: if x86 won;t run, neither will amd64
[02:35] <orbin> DrShade: make an entry perhaps: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[02:35] <Lukian> kallei: that's all the help I can give.
[02:35] <oskude> corhere, hmm, hda3 seems to be an windows extended partition space...
[02:35] <interferon> SeanTater, what makes you say that?
[02:35] <Amaranth> interferon: it probably won't
[02:35] <mprasodjo> hugh_, but i test it with attach_HostRAID=1 and it working. but i don't know how to make it run the installation
[02:35] <SeanTater> interferon: 64bit is 32bit compatible, always
[02:35] <Amaranth> interferon: What do you mean won't run?
[02:35] <hugh_> michael, that looks like KDE with a GNOME theme
[02:35] <gnomefreak> SeanTater: but if the burn or iso is bad it wont run
[02:35] <Amaranth> SeanTater: In ubuntu if you want 32-bit programs you have to compile them from source in a chroot
[02:35] <interferon> Amaranth, it gets through the service loading screen, then the screen goes blank and nothing else happens
[02:36] <michael> Says Ubuntu on the link lol
[02:36] <chavo> it's ubuntu with gdesklets
[02:36] <hugh_> mprasodjo, select the boot that you want it to use and use edit (press 'e')
[02:36] <SeanTater> Amaranth: yes, but a totally 64 bit computer can always run a totally 32 bit system.
[02:36] <Amaranth> SeanTater: yeah
[02:36] <gnomefreak> SeanTater: only in chroot
[02:36] <SeanTater> Amaranth: I know because I'm doing that now
[02:36] <SeanTater> gnomefreak: not true
[02:36] <Amaranth> gnomefreak: No no, he means 64-bit CPU, 32-bit OS.
[02:36] <dungodung> my 5.10 is bugging me - it wants me to provide a keyring password for my ssh server when I want to take a screenshot. what's worse, the password is rejected, even though it's correct
[02:36] <corhere> oskude: yeah, I have XP dual-booted with dapper, the xp partition(s?) is/are FAT32.  I'm just concerned that windows would write something to the disk and corupt my root linux partition or vice versa
[02:37] <hugh_> mprasodjo, I'm no expert with RAID but I think that will do what you want
[02:37] <gnomefreak> yes that is but not the apps
[02:37] <Amaranth> hey, new dapper updates
[02:37] <javiolo> hi
[02:37] <corhere> dungdung: the keyring password and the login password are two different passwords, unless you set the keyring password to the same
[02:37] <javiolo> how can I check if a app is available to ppc ?
[02:37] <oskude> corhere, omg, xp on fat32 :/ but the partition table is ok (as hd3 is only a "place holder"
[02:37] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i already try to put many many type of parameter in this week.
[02:37] <SeanTater> interferon: try pressing esc before it gets that far, that might tell you what's goign on
[02:37] <gnomefreak> javiolo: what app?
[02:38] <Amaranth> javiolo: packages.ubuntu.com
[02:38] <javiolo> gnomefreak freenx
[02:38] <interferon> SeanTater, i have, it starts GDM, then the screen goes blank
[02:38] <dope> oskude: i received an error
[02:38] <hugh_> mprasodjo, and what happens?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> eh im thinking no and im fairly sure of that
[02:38] <SeanTater> javiolo: you can ank ubotu if it;s available in ppc also
[02:38] <corhere> oskude: what do you mean by a place holder?
[02:38] <oskude> dope, pastebin it
[02:38] <SeanTater> interferon: what video card?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> javiolo: and you wont find that on package.ubuntu.com iirc
[02:38] <dope> oskude: ok
[02:38] <interferon> SeanTater, Amaranth: the download page says that the amd64 cd is "necessary" for amd64 machines
[02:38] <interferon> SeanTater, radeon 9200se
[02:38] <oskude> corhere, do you know about logical partitions ?
[02:39] <SeanTater> interferon: it;s not --
[02:39] <corhere> oskude: yeah
[02:39] <javiolo> seantater how does it works ?
[02:39] <Amaranth> interferon: bad wording
[02:39] <michael> k i downloaded the gdesktlets file how i run it
[02:39] <gnomefreak> !info freenx
[02:39] <ubotu> Package freenx does not exist in dapper
[02:39] <mprasodjo> i still can find how to put that parameter in installation. i try to remastering the cd to put my own initrd but i'm still fail with that
[02:39] <SeanTater> interferon: I;m running the 32 bit one on AMD64 right now, no problems at all
[02:39] <dope> oskude: http://en.pastebin.ca/67659
[02:39] <SeanTater> javiolo: say !info freenx
[02:39] <oskude> corhere, hda3 is a extended partition place with logical partitions hda5 and hda6
[02:39] <javiolo> !info freenx
[02:39] <ubotu> Package freenx does not exist in dapper
[02:40] <corhere> oskude: now it makes sense, thank you for clearing that up!
[02:40] <SeanTater> javiolo: see
[02:40] <javiolo> ouch
[02:40] <SeanTater> javiolo: it's not available for anyone else either
[02:40] <thoreauputic> !freenx
[02:40] <ubotu> freenx is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeNX
[02:40] <michael> Well?
[02:40] <javiolo> seantater Ive seen it
[02:40] <Amaranth> !seveas
[02:40] <ubotu> Seveas has a semi-popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[02:40] <thoreauputic> SeanTater: I have freenx installed on dapper here
[02:41] <Amaranth> that's where you get it but i think he only has amd64 and x86 packages
[02:41] <Seveas> Amaranth, not even amd64
[02:41] <oskude> dope, hmm, could you allso post your xorg.conf ? and is youre monitor a CTR or TFT ?
[02:41] <gnomefreak> SeanTater: doesnt have ppc ftreenx
[02:41] <Seveas> I only have a 386 machine
[02:41] <javiolo> aghh so no ppc
[02:41] <javiolo> thats why the repos didnt work
[02:41] <Amaranth> grr
[02:41] <FeeR^> anyone able to get fancontrol/pwmconfig to work?  i've got fans running at full blast for no reason
[02:41] <Pxtl_> I'm gonna try to use the glide drivers from "universe", but that means enabling "Universe".  After I do that, I"m worried about other unstable packages being fetched and me not realising that they're unstable.  Is there a way to say "just get this one pacakge from universe but use main for everything else"?
[02:41] <michael> How do i run this gdesktlets thing? its a .deb file
[02:41] <dope> oskude: ok i will and my monitor is CRT
[02:42] <MagicFab> Hello
[02:42] <gnomefreak> Amaranth: if i had to guess i know who that was
[02:42] <asabil> is there any ubuntu large scale deployment doc out there ?
[02:42] <MagicFab> How do I change the default bittorrent app for Firefox ? Can't find it in FF's prefs.
[02:42] <Seveas> Amaranth, already k-lined
[02:42] <javiolo> Ive seen this deb http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl/ dapper-seveas custom extras freenx java seveas-meta all
[02:42] <dope> oskude: http://en.pastebin.ca/67660 is my xorg.conf
[02:42] <Amaranth> Seveas: didn't know if it would be caught since he did it while leaving
[02:42] <Seveas> Amaranth, afaik it'll be caught
[02:42] <oskude> dope, roger, reading
[02:43] <MagicFab> asabil, like articles ? see: http://www.digitaldivide.net/articles/view.php?ArticleID=522
[02:43] <Amaranth> If you just got disconnected: FIX YOUR ROUTER
[02:43] <dope> oskude: ok
[02:43] <Amaranth> It would be easier to just ban all the people who get caught by that exploit....
[02:43] <asabil> MagicFab, no, i am looking for howtos
[02:43] <javiolo> any app like freenx? I dont want vnc...
[02:43] <hugh_> michael, in the Terminal, 'cd' to the directory, then 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb'
[02:44] <michael> Thanks man :-)(
[02:44] <michael> :-)
[02:44] <michael> how do i list the dirs in terminal
[02:44] <Seveas> michael, ls
[02:45] <MagicFab> asabil, not sure. Googling, found this.. http://natalian.org/archives/2006/03/24/mass-deployment/ (discussion about mass dep)
[02:45] <michael> Doesnt do anything just says bas list: command not found
[02:45] <oskude> hmm, i read in the error log "(II) I810(0): 1024x768@60Hz" so maybe try commenting out the HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf... but just a guess
[02:45] <oskude> dope, hmm, i read in the error log "(II) I810(0): 1024x768@60Hz" so maybe try commenting out the HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf... but just a guess
[02:46] <dope> oskude: ok ill try that, hold on
[02:46] <hugh_> mprasodjo, I can't think of anything at the moment. Trying reading through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Raid and see if that helps.
[02:46] <DrShade> What just happened?  (With all the people leaving the channel - I wasn't one of them, heh)
[02:47] <Amaranth> DrShade: Exploit in some *cough*cheap*cough* routers that have old firmware.
[02:47] <asabil> MagicFab, thanks, i'll try to look at that thingie
[02:47] <dope> oskude: same thing (EE) No Valid modes
[02:47] <hugh_> mprasodjo, sorry
[02:47] <MagicFab> asabil, also looka t https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomatedTestingDeployment?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=deployment&fullsearch=Text
[02:47] <michael> can someone tell me how to get to the desktop in terminal
[02:47] <gnomefreak> if you connect with a duifferent port it will fix the issue
[02:47] <oskude> dope, hmm, have you tried google with your graphic chip and the error message ?
[02:47] <DrShade> Ahhh.
[02:47] <asabil> thx again MagicFab
[02:47] <javiolo> any app like freenx? I dont want vnc...
[02:48] <hugh_> michael, 'cd Desktop'
[02:48] <asabil> michael, ctrl+alt+f7 ?
[02:48] <gnomefreak> iirc the port is 6669 instead of 6667
[02:48] <dope> oskude: yes, every result i get 955resolution is used in the fix
[02:48] <hugh_> michael, it is case sensitve
[02:48] <dope> oskude: but ive used 955resolution as well, and got nowhere
[02:48] <hugh_> asabil, he means in the Terminal
[02:48] <michael> wah help me
[02:48] <asabil> oh okidoki
[02:48] <hugh_> michael, open the Terminal.
[02:48] <michael> its open
[02:48] <AngryElf> guys, I added    'myUsername = NOPASSWD: /sbin/reboot"  to my sudoers file with visudo and it has a parse error? what's it suppose to be?
[02:48] <oskude> dope, hmm, sorry cant think more neither, as here nvidia and ati allways worked... sure youre monitor can 1024x768? but i assume yes..
[02:48] <mprasodjo> hugh_, thanks much. i will try again
[02:48] <hugh_> michael, type in 'cd Desktop'
[02:49] <Pxtl_> how do I access the "Universe" packages?
[02:49] <michael> command not found
[02:49] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i already read and try that wiki
[02:49] <AngryElf> !tell Pxtl about universe
[02:49] <dope> oskude: on winblows 1024x768 works just fine, and i looked up my monitors specs, the resolution is available
[02:49] <hugh_> don't type in the '
[02:49] <michael> i didnt
[02:49] <dope> oskude: this is a nightmare dude, heh
[02:50] <Amaranth> dope: Stuck at 640x480?
[02:50] <Amaranth> !fixres
[02:50] <oskude> dope, i feel with you...
[02:50] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:50] <hugh_> mprasodjo, Ubuntu should be doing this out-of-the-box
[02:50] <dope> Amaranth: yeah dude
[02:50] <hugh_> mprasodjo, that is what seems strange
[02:50] <dope> Amaranth: 845G chipset
[02:50] <oskude> dope, have you tried to use 24bit depth ?
[02:50] <Pxtl_> I tried uncommenting the universe in sources, but the package that is supposed to be there I'm not getting with apt.
[02:50] <michael> This still not wokring:(
[02:50] <dope> oskude: yeah, ive tried that and it says No video modes for that depth
[02:50] <michael> i ould just drag the file to temrinal
[02:51] <oskude> Pxtl, you have to do "sudo apt-get update" before the changes work
[02:51] <Pxtl_> tx/
[02:51] <hugh_> michael, type in (without the ") "cd ~/Desktop"
[02:51] <oskude> dope, hmm....
[02:51] <dope> i been up for hours dude trying to figure this thing out, heh
[02:51] <MagicFab> how can I change the default bittorrent applicationin Firefox ?
[02:51] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i already try to find the problem. and the problem is only the installation cd is not including attach_HostRAID=1 when it load aic94xx modules
[02:51] <michael> not working
[02:52] <mprasodjo> i try using memory stick to proof it and it work
[02:52] <bastiq> How do i check if my Vista partition is hd0,0?
[02:52] <mprasodjo> i can read my volume
[02:52] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i can read my volume
[02:52] <hugh_> mprasodjo, but it will not boot?
[02:52] <rahul_> how do i install java?
[02:52] <oskude> dope, have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and letting it do all automaticly whats possible ? (as in the logs i read it would only support 1024x768@60Hz
[02:52] <mprasodjo> hugh_, but now the problem is when i want to do it with installation cd.
[02:53] <Pxtl_> yes!!! all the 3dfx stuff had been moved to Universe.
[02:53] <gnomefreak> !java > rahul_
[02:53] <dope> oskude: yeah ive done that and i get the same 640x480 res
[02:53] <mprasodjo> hugh_, that next thing that we will know :D
[02:53] <oskude> dope, but 60hz makes, atleast my, eyes bleed :/
[02:53] <pUm> hey .. i am searching for the ubuntu dapper cd label jpg .. can not find it. anyone can point me to it please ?
[02:53] <oskude> dope, damn...
[02:53] <hugh_> mprasodjo, What do you want to do with Install CD?
[02:53] <rahul_> i downloaded a .bin file...what do i do next?
[02:53] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i do not know if it can boot directly when i success to install in raid.
[02:54] <dope> oskude: im suprised 955resolution hasnt worked, i've read enough threads online where it has :/
[02:54] <mprasodjo> hugh_, just put attach_HostRAID=1 when it boot in aic94xx modules.
[02:54] <mprasodjo> hugh_, that's what i try to find
[02:54] <oskude> dope, what is "055resolution" ?
[02:54] <Bateau_> ok, so i just installed kubuntu, and my ressolution was 1024x768. so, i changed the screen to Dell 1920x1200 widescreen laptop thingy ( i have a Inspiron 9400 Laptop ) but i cant set the resolution to more then 1600x1200 now. and the screencard driver is set to "vesa". i have a ATI X1400 how to install the driver?
[02:55] <mprasodjo> hugh_, or maybe an easy way to create my own installation cd with custum kernel and initrd
[02:55] <dope> oskude: its some type of software someone in here told me to use, its supposed to make it so your intel 845G+ card can display higher video modes
[02:55] <rahul_> i want to install latest version of java... i downloaded a .bin file...what do i do next?
[02:55] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i already burn many cd and fail about loading kernel or modules.
[02:56] <pUm> got it by myself ;) .. thx http://www.ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showimage.php?i=2879
[02:56] <oeb> I do I go about setting ubuntu (server) to auto-login? I'm playing with a new server here. Or is there a web resource where I can find all common questions like this?
[02:56] <Seveas> cs o
[02:56] <hugh_> mprasodjo, so you are trying to install?
[02:57] <hugh_> mprasodjo, and you are trying to install on to a RAID volume
[02:57] <oskude> dope, well, cant help with 955resolution... never heard it...
[02:57] <michael> is it possible to spoof your ip with linux?
[02:57] <mprasodjo> hugh_, yes i trying to install and yes i try it to install it at raid volume
[02:57] <Snow_Shelter> does anyone here have a problem in aMSN where you can take a picture with your webcam, but you can't share it to other people? I have that problem, running aMSN 0.95, and didn't have this problem in Mandriva 2006
[02:57] <hugh_> mprasodjo, ah
[02:57] <rahul_> how do i install azureus bittorrent client in ubuntu?
[02:57] <dope> oskude: its alright, i'll just keep tweaking with stuff
[02:57] <hugh_> mprasodjo, So you can get to the CD boot screen
[02:57] <hugh_> ?
[02:58] <javiolo> rahul_ http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[02:58] <Snow_Shelter> rahul_, have you tried synaptic?
[02:58] <st_iron> hello
[02:58] <Snow_Shelter> st_iron: hell
[02:58] <Snow_Shelter> st_iron: hello*
[02:58] <javiolo> rahul_ http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_P2P_BitTorrent_Client_.28Azureus.29
[02:58] <mprasodjo> hugh_, yes now i have cd boot screen using dapper 32 bit server installation cd in my screen
[02:58] <hugh_> rahul_, it should be under multiverse
[02:58] <Seveas> javiolo, ubuntuguide is bad
[02:58] <rahul_> ok thanks....
[02:59] <michael> well is it posisble to spoof your ip with ubuntu?
[02:59] <Seveas> michael, sure
[02:59] <javiolo> Seveas why ?
[02:59] <michael> woah seriously?
[02:59] <rahul_> i want to install latest java 1.5..... i downloaded a .bin file...what do i do next?
[02:59] <Seveas> !ubuntuguide
[02:59] <Snow_Shelter> rahul_: use synaptic
[02:59] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is an inaccurate and outdated resource. Please use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[02:59] <Seveas> rahul_, you throw it away
[03:00] <Seveas> !java > rahul_
[03:00] <Snow_Shelter> !synatpic
[03:00] <ubotu> I know nothing about synatpic
[03:00] <Snow_Shelter> !synaptic
[03:00] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[03:00] <Snow_Shelter> it helps when you spell it right
[03:00] <javiolo> Seveas thanks
[03:01] <Pxtl> !xorg
[03:01] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:01] <Snow_Shelter> rahul_: either use apt-get or synaptic to install things, it will solve dependcies, and you will be able to easily remove the installed items later
[03:01] <oskude> dope, btw. you could get it atleast to work with "vesa" driver, but that would be 60hz :/
[03:02] <Snow_Shelter> rahul_: I don't reccomend installing things from other sources unless synaptic doesn't have it
[03:02] <Pxtl> how do I get xorg to reconfigure itself now that I have installed new drivers?
[03:02] <sexcopter8000m> i have a dual-boot setup (dapper and xp), is it possible to sort out virus and spyware problems on the xp partition while booted into dapper? are there tools to do this in the repos?
[03:02] <Hobbsee> sexcopter8000m: no, write support to ntfs is not safe.
[03:02] <Hobbsee> sexcopter8000m: try booting into windows safe mode, and running an antivirus scan from there
[03:02] <michael> E: Coudltn Find PackagE??? it says it has done reading pkg list and building dpendcy tree ?????
[03:02] <oskude> Pxtl, what driver did you install ?
[03:02] <Snow_Shelter> Pxtl: either manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or use a GUI equiv
[03:02] <Hobbsee> michael: which package?
[03:02] <michael> gdesk
[03:03] <sexcopter8000m> Hobbsee, oh yeah, i forgot about that bit! :s
[03:03] <michael> can u tell me whats wrong with it?
[03:03] <Pxtl> glide2-bin
[03:03] <Hobbsee> !info gdesk
[03:03] <ubotu> Package gdesk does not exist in dapper
[03:03] <michael> !info gdesk
[03:03] <ubotu> Package gdesk does not exist in dapper
[03:03] <oskude> Pxtl, glide2-bin is a driver ?
[03:03] <Hobbsee> michael: gdesklets perhaps?
[03:03] <Pxtl> according to the package information, yes.
[03:03] <michael> yeh
[03:04] <hugh_> mprasodjo, if all else fails send an email to the ubuntu-(your native langauge)
[03:04] <oskude> Pxtl, hmm i read "graphics library for 3Dfx Voodoo based cards" so no driver, just a library...
[03:04] <michael> what i do now???
[03:04] <Pxtl> aww carp, my linux n00bishness strikes again.
[03:04] <Snow_Shelter> Pxtl: that package doesn't exsist on the ubuntu mirrors, unless it just isn't for x86_64
[03:04] <burepe2> do I have to unmount a drive before I can modifiy it with qtparted?
[03:04] <Pxtl> It's on universe.
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> Pxtl: that's ok, I only started using it a year ago, and now I can do almost anything
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> Pxtl: I have universe added, it doesn't show up
[03:05] <hugh_> michael, what does it way?
[03:05] <javiolo> any app like freenx? I dont want vnc...
[03:05] <dope> oskude: i've used the vesa driver i'm still only able to get 640x480
[03:05] <hugh_> say*
[03:05] <oskude> dope, damn!
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> Pxtl: yep, I have no glide2* package
[03:05] <michael> Reading package lists... Done
[03:05] <michael> Building dependency tree... Done
[03:05] <michael> E: Couldn't find package
[03:05] <gnomefreak> javiolo: finding packages built for ppc is not easy
[03:05] <bigfoot1> how can i get japanese input on my pc?
[03:05] <bigfoot1> !japanese
[03:05] <gnomefreak> javiolo: other than the main ubuntu packages
[03:05] <ubotu> I know nothing about japanese
[03:06] <dope> oskude: yeah bro, a friggin nightmare
[03:06] <hugh_> michael, gdesklets
[03:06] <bigfoot1> !japaneseinput
[03:06] <ubotu> I know nothing about japaneseinput
[03:06] <javiolo> damn ppc

[03:06] <gnomefreak> javiolo: 64bit same way
[03:06] <burepe2> bigfoot1: you need a japanese channel?
[03:06] <bigfoot1> burepe2: nope
[03:06] <dope> oskude: im gonna rummage through my other boxes, maybe snatch the vid card and put it in this box
[03:06] <michael> sudo apt-get install /home/michael/Desktop/gdesklets_0.35.2-1build1_i386.deb
[03:06] <oskude> Pxtl, ah you where the one with voodoo2 ? then you need this "xserver-xorg-driver-voodoo" and set "voodoo" as driver...
[03:06] <bigfoot1> i need to find a way to be able to type in Japanese on my computer
[03:06] <javiolo> gnomefreak thanks but you know any app like freenx ?
[03:06] <burepe2> bigfoot are you in gnome?
[03:06] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: ppc good! intel bad!
[03:06] <gnomefreak> javiolo: not for ppc nor 64
[03:06] <burepe2> bigfoot1: do you have dapper?
[03:07] <javiolo> snow_shelter not that good...
[03:07] <bigfoot1> burepe2: yes sire
[03:07] <hugh_> michael, system>Administration>Synaptic Search:gdesklets then install gdesklets
[03:07] <mprasodjo> hugh_, thanks... i try

[03:07] <michael> k im in that now whati do
[03:07] <Pxtl> oskude: ohh.
[03:07] <burepe2> If you go into the language options and add japanese it will add everything you need
[03:07] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: well, speed wise, it sucks (unless you're the happy owner of a G5, which I'm not), but it's a good arch that many other distro's have neglected
[03:07] <hugh_> mprasodjo, the lists are at https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/
[03:07] <Pxtl> Funny, it set "glide" by default, when there was no "glide" driver.
[03:07] <Pxtl> Strange.
[03:08] <bigfoot1> really, burepe2? that's great
[03:08] <burepe2> bigfoot1: then you can either sign in in japanese or enable the scrim ime because it will be installed
[03:08] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i will create my report on "trying to install" :D
[03:08] <bigfoot1> coz i had to do major fiddling with the scim stuff on hoary and breezy
[03:08] <javiolo> snow_shelter Im on a old macmini...
[03:08] <burepe2> it is really easy with dapper
[03:08] <michael> shows nothing
[03:08] <bigfoot1> burepe2: really?
[03:08] <bigfoot1> yahoo!!!
[03:08] <javiolo> snow_shelter and now I have problems finding apps for ppc
[03:08] <bateau_> ok, so i tried now to install the ATI drivers. but the resolution still is at 1600x1200 :( how can i set i higher?
[03:08] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: we've got one of those, good machine
[03:08] <bigfoot1> so first, i guess i should delete all the japanese-input stuff i intsalled in my pre-dapper days, eh, burepe2?
[03:08] <hugh_> mprasodjo, try to put as much infomation as possible, every thing that you know has happened and what hasn't
[03:08] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: I can't believe the crummy FPS I get in OSX on my PB 15"
[03:09] <javiolo> snow_shelter Isnt the hd too slow ?
[03:09] <burepe2> probly doesn't matter
[03:09] <Sgeo> What happened to menu.s3m from Enigma>
[03:09] <Sgeo> ?
[03:09] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: no, it's fine for us
[03:09] <boricua> is there a admin/gui to edit grub
[03:09] <dope> brb
[03:09] <mprasodjo> hugh_, ok.. i will
[03:09] <burepe2> Hey I got a busy drive I am trying to modify with qtparted. How do I make it not busy?
[03:09] <javiolo> snow_shelter wow so I dont know because ubuntu sometimes takes time to load apps...
[03:09] <boricua> bur[n] er_, umount
[03:09] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: SATA is really overrated. I've got a SATA2 drive in this AMD, and I don't notice any difference in performence between IDE and SATA
[03:09] <michael> What i do now it doesnt find anyhting :-(
[03:10] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: how much RAM do you have in the mini?
[03:10] <bigfoot1> burepe2: just to confirm, i want to keep all my ubuntu in english..
[03:10] <javiolo> snow_shelter I think 256
[03:10] <hugh_> mprasodjo, I have just found something that might help you, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto#head-b40f74375e725eb35189a50fbb6f31b5f840fb6e
[03:10] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: that's your problem. You're running swap. Put 512, or better, 1GB into it, and it'll become a whole new machine
[03:10] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: type 'free' in terminal
[03:11] <javiolo> snow_shelter one sec
[03:11] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: or 'top' and look for how much ram you have
[03:11] <Snow_Shelter> free will give it to you in bytes
[03:11] <michael> hugh_ what i do now that it isnt finding anything
[03:11] <hugh_> mprasodjo, and also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto#head-d7ab5fa687b8fc2eb188fb00a5a9a3f8ddd80735

[03:11] <Snow_Shelter> shoot
[03:12] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i already try it. but the problem is the disk is gone if i'm doing it with installation cd
[03:12] <Snow_Shelter> javiolo: free gives it to you in KB
[03:12] <bigfoot1> burepe2: yes?
[03:12] <hugh_> mprasodjo, try with the email then
[03:12] <burepe2> bigfoot1: if you enable the japanese it will install the ime and then you can use it inside  english
[03:13] <michael> wah :(
[03:13] <burepe2> bigfoot1: just don't log in in Japanese.
[03:13] <hugh_> michael, you are synaptic?
[03:13] <michael> yeh i am in that
[03:13] <hugh_> michael, go settings>Repositories
[03:13] <bateau_> i have duo core cpu. doesnt ubuntu support that?
[03:13] <bigfoot1> burepe2: great!!!
[03:14] <michael> then what?
[03:14] <bigfoot1> burepe2: i never saw this change in the changelogs, or in the dapper news, you know what i mean? all i read about is new gnome, new xine, etc.
[03:14] <hugh_> michael, click edit for Ubuntu 6.06LTS
[03:14] <mprasodjo> hugh_, i have to go out to find a dinner before continuing this job. thanks for any suggest.
[03:14] <michael> cdrom:[Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012)] /
[03:14] <hugh_> michael, then select the Universe and Multiverse packages
[03:15] <mprasodjo> hugh_, thanks very much
[03:15] <hugh_> mprasodjo, that alright
[03:15] <bigfoot1> burepe2: may i ask how you knew about this news?
[03:15] <burepe2> I am using qtparted and I am getting "an error happen during ped_file_system_open call" when I try to resize. What should I do?
[03:15] <burepe2> bigfoot1: I just installed doing that
[03:15] <burepe2> japanese that its
[03:15] <michael> downloaing it says
[03:15] <Sgeo> When I start Ubuntu, EVMS is often slow
[03:15] <michael> i am on dialup also
[03:16] <Sgeo> Especially when I end up starting with ide=nodma
[03:16] <michael> So for the time being how do i spoof my ip??
[03:16] <hugh_> michael, it might take a while then
[03:16] <bina> Hi, I think theres somethingup with my GTK library because when i do ./configure it says it cant compile the test program, i have all of the dev libraries installed as far as i can tell.  Is there a way I can reinstall the Libraries without breaking all of my programs?
[03:16] <michael> ty for help hugh_
[03:16] <bigfoot1> burepe2: i see. so you were just poking aroudn the menu (prefences) area?
[03:17] <michael> not that long its moving
[03:17] <burepe2> no I asked someone how to do it
[03:17] <michael> :-D
[03:17] <hugh_> michael, do you really want me to explain how to spoof your IP. It would take ages
[03:17] <michael> So how do you spoof your ip? anyone here know?
[03:17] <michael> Yes :D
[03:17] <michael> Msg me then lol
[03:17] <bigfoot1> burepe2: I hope  it will allow us to input japanese in non-gnome programs (programs that use kde libraries)
[03:18] <chamo> hello
[03:18] <burepe2> just do it and if you have a problem we can tackle it from there
[03:18] <burepe2> I havn't had a problem
[03:18] <bigfoot1> bur[n] er_: ok
[03:18] <Arafangi1n> burepe2: I'd just do it by using libpcap
[03:18] <bigfoot1> burepe2: ok
[03:18] <bigfoot1> Arafangi1n: you talking about the same thing?
[03:18] <burepe2> Arafangi1n: what do you mean??
[03:19] <Arafangi1n> burepe2: But, sometimes you need explicit OS support, or root access.
[03:19] <bigfoot1> if so, Arafangi1nwhat is libpcap
[03:19] <bigfoot1> ?
[03:19] <hugh_> michael, well there is a very simple type of Ip spoofing with ipmasq
[03:19] <Arafangi1n> bigfoot1: A very raw networking library ;)
[03:19] <hugh_> michael, that should do all that you want.
[03:19] <michael> is this a tool that comes with ubuntu?
[03:20] <bigfoot1> burepe2: it's instnalled
[03:20] <XHK> Hi
[03:20] <bigfoot1> now how do i switch from einglsh to japanese?
[03:20] <bigfoot1> contorl space doesn't do it
[03:20] <XHK> How can I mount Windows partions
[03:20] <bigfoot1> nor Shift space
[03:20] <hugh_> michael, it really is just NAT firewall but it can hide IP's
[03:20] <Seveas> !windowsdrives
[03:20] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[03:20] <XHK> Thx
[03:20] <apf> hi there, i have problemviewing my signgns as iso8859
[03:20] <apf> but others see them as iso8859
[03:21] <michael> :-O
[03:21] <apf> how do I change my irssiclient to "view" them in ubuntu? ;)
[03:21] <bigfoot1> burepe2: when i rigt click on the keyboard icon, i don't see japansee
[03:21] <bigfoot1> but in the confirugartions, i see japanese.
[03:21] <michael> i wanna make my ip look like anything i want e.g my ip s 200.234.234.123 i wanna make it like 255.0.2.4
[03:21] <XHK> bigfoot1 System>Preferences>Keyboard>Layouts maybe
[03:21] <michael> or i just wnana hide my ip from being viewd
[03:22] <hugh_> bigfoot1, or System>Admin>Langauge Support
[03:22] <bigfoot1> hugh_: yes. i just installed Japanese via that means
[03:22] <Arafangi1n> michael: You obviously have no clue with networking.
[03:22] <hugh_> Arafangi1n, thank you for cutting to the point
[03:23] <michael> Ah i do on windows but i am not using windows anymore
[03:23] <smoser> anyone know how I can use sawfish in gnome?
[03:23] <hugh_> bigfoot1, then it should have the default langauge list below the tick boxes
[03:23] <freezey> with ssh how do i create a user with sudo access
[03:23] <Arafangi1n> michael: I don't care if you're using Mac OS or OS/2, what you are suggesting is nonsense.
[03:23] <dope> anyone can help with X stuck @ 640x480
[03:23] <hugh_> michael, you mean you want to set a static IP?
[03:24] <michael> nope
[03:24] <hugh_> michael, then what do you want to do?
[03:24] <bigfoot1> in RightClick Applet/SCIM setup/IMEEngrine/Global Setup, I see Japanese, but when I left -click of applet only shows English
[03:24] <michael> I just wanna hide my ip from being viewd in public
[03:25] <javiolo> michael here ?
[03:25] <st_iron> !postfix
[03:25] <ubotu> 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
[03:25] <pussfeller> !ntfs
[03:25] <hugh_> bigfoot1, another thought, you can select your langauge on the login screen
[03:25] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[03:25] <michael> What?
[03:25] <hugh_> bigfoot1, just try loging out then back in
[03:25] <javiolo> michael hide your ip in irc ?
[03:25] <dope> anyone can help with X stuck @ 640x480 ?
[03:25] <bina> michael: for browsing etc you can make it harder for people to find your IP using tor, which I think bounces your connection around a load of computers, but I think you can still find out your original IP if you try hard enough
[03:25] <bigfoot1> hugh_: ok
[03:25] <michael> finally the syunapic thing is done
[03:25] <Arafangi1n> michael: What you are suggesting just absolutely doesn't make sense, and I have actually read the IP and TCP/IP protocol definition.
[03:25] <bigfoot1> i'll do that now.
[03:25] <bigfoot1> i'll be back
[03:25] <javiolo> michael try tor
[03:26] <michael> k
[03:26] <Arafangi1n> michael: Are you referring to using IPS/IPX (Or whatever) in windows isntead of TCP/IP?
[03:26] <smoser> no one has any ideas, or any RTFM pointers regarding setting sawfish as the gnome window manager
[03:26] <michael> tcp/ip
[03:26] <javiolo> michael http://tor.eff.org/
[03:26] <michael> k thakns jav
[03:26] <pussfeller> i don't think they can trace you on TOR without alot of court orders
[03:26] <michael> lmao
[03:26] <Arafangi1n> pussfeller: If done right, they probably can't trace you even then.
[03:27] <javiolo> one question I have using tor
[03:27] <dope> i just installed Dapper, and i cant get out of 640x480 resolution, any help?
[03:27] <javiolo> is that everything you do is insecure ?
[03:27] <errpast-wc> Is there an easy to use pptp client ?
[03:27] <Seveas> !resolution > dope
[03:27] <michael> does it bounc ur connection when ur downloading form like download.com?
[03:27] <michael> or any sites
[03:27] <dope> hrm, ok
[03:27] <dope> !resolution
[03:27] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:27] <michael> Jav do i download the debian one im on ubuntu
[03:27] <hugh_> michael, it bounces you around between lots of machines on the internet
[03:27] <hugh_> makeing you almost impossible to trace
[03:28] <bina> michael: I think you can just apt-get install tor
[03:28] <pussfeller> if even one of those machines doesn't keep logs, then you can't be tracked
[03:28] <poje> michael: it will slow down your connection because of the anonymizing
[03:28] <power1> Hey all, I am having a problem booting a second hard drive with grub> I have put in a seperate physical disk with windows xp installed, its connected to the onboard ide ite8212 raid controller on the motherboard. If I boot into linux i see the drive is detected as /dev/hde but no matter what grub options i use or what mapping i use it just says no drive found.......any ideas...am I wasting my time with this one?
[03:28] <michael> :-O
[03:28] <Arafangi1n> michael: Why do you want to hide your IP anyway?
[03:28] <salah> any ideas how to make a vcd with Linux?
[03:28] <bigfoot1> scim still doesn't work
[03:29] <nvictor> comment je trouve un fichier sur mon ordi ?
[03:29] <michael> idk i dont like ppl viewing my ip
[03:29] <bigfoot1> by the way, i logged in without changing the language
[03:29] <javiolo> michael you can get it from synaptic
[03:29] <pussfeller> well, i suppose the ISP might keep logs and they could back track that way
[03:29] <hugh_> bigfoot1, damn
[03:29] <bigfoot1> so i'm still in englism
[03:29] <nvictor> J'ai fait locate, je trouve pas
[03:29] <nvictor> J'ai fait find, je ne trouve pas non plus
[03:29] <javiolo> !fr
[03:29] <Arafangi1n> michael: So, what's wrong with that?
[03:29] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:29] <rpedro_> !fr
[03:29] <bigfoot1> 
[03:29] <hugh_> michael, if you are on dail-up your IP changes every time you log on
[03:29] <nvictor> ah ok
[03:29] <nvictor> sorry
[03:29] <michael> Yeh im chaning dialup soon
[03:29] <michael> adsl2+
[03:29] <bigfoot1> it kind of works
[03:30] <hugh_> bigfoot1, what isn't working?
[03:30] <michael> brb 1 sec
[03:30] <bigfoot1> well, hugh, several things. For one, i can't change the layout with the keyboard shortcut. i have to click the applet
[03:31] <burepe2> I can't resize my drive. Help.Qtparted and gparted won't work.
[03:31] <bigfoot1> hugh_: 2nd problem. i can't type in japanese in opera, though i can type in Japanese in gnome programs
[03:31] <burepe2> hmm
[03:31] <hugh_> bigfoot1, in Langauge Support what does it say your default langauge
[03:31] <hugh_> is
[03:32] <st_iron> !webmail
[03:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about webmail
[03:32] <st_iron> !mailadmin
[03:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about mailadmin
[03:32] <michael> back
[03:32] <salah> !vcd
[03:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about vcd
[03:32] <XHK> When I try to open windows partion in media/hda1, it says I don't have permission. : S
[03:32] <michael> i been thinking of hosting a server of some sort lol
[03:32] <salah> oh, is it really that hard
[03:33] <michael> What can u do with a 24mb connection?
[03:33] <bigfoot1> hugh_: it says "English (United states of america)".
[03:33] <bigfoot1> actually i set it to that
[03:33] <st_iron> XHK: try it with sudo
[03:33] <bigfoot1> i set it to that after i intalled Jap language support, and before i logged out and logged in
[03:33] <hugh_> bigfoot1, if you want to type in Japanese then I think you would have to set it to Japanese
[03:33] <jrib> XHK: how did you mount it?
[03:33] <javiolo> snow_shelter u still there ?
[03:34] <bigfoot1> hugh_: but that will make my whole desktop into japanese, won't it?
[03:34] <XHK> jrib with a script, got from wiki
[03:34] <st_iron> XHK, is it a windows partition?
[03:34] <bigfoot1> hugh_: and actually, i *can* type in japanese
[03:34] <poje> michael: what is a 24mb connection?
[03:34] <XHK> st_iron: yeah
[03:34] <hugh_> bigfoot1, what do you want to do?
[03:34] <jrib> XHK: if you read below the wiki it will explain how to setup the proper permissions by editing /etc/fstab
[03:34] <bigfoot1> here's problem one again: "For one, i can't change the layout with the keyboard shortcut. i have to click the applet"
[03:34] <jrib> ubotu: tell XHK about ntfs
[03:34] <michael> 24Mbit Connection
[03:34] <XHK> jrib: oh ok thx
[03:34] <hugh_> michael, you can't host a server if your IP is "hidden"
[03:35] <bigfoot1> i want to be able to switch from English to Japanese and vice versa using a keyboard shortcut (Control + Space, OR Shift + Space, or anytnhing).
[03:35] <st_iron> XHK, sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[03:35] <michael> yeh i know that
[03:35] <poje> michael: ah - you can do a lot with that, but how are you going to pay for it? ;d
[03:35] <michael> :D
[03:35] <bigfoot1> hugh_: another thing i want to do: be able to type in japanese in opera
[03:35] <michael> what can u do with a 24mb connection tho
[03:35] <hugh_> bigfoot1, you want to type in Japanese but you want the Desktop to be in English?
[03:35] <michael> My brother
[03:35] <XHK> st_iron:  ok ty, ill try it
[03:35] <poje> michael: pretty much whatever you are thinking
[03:35] <michael> :-) its only
[03:35] <bigfoot1> hugh_: yes
[03:35] <michael> 110 a month
[03:35] <michael> aus dollars
[03:35] <bigfoot1> hugh_: i'm in japan, but ain't a japanese person
[03:36] <michael> And whats that i have a iq of a melon
[03:36] <XHK> sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[03:36] <hugh_> bigfoot1, ,:). I havn't heard someone wanting to do that before
[03:36] <XHK> mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /media/windows/ busy
[03:36] <XHK> mount: according to mtab, /dev/hda1 is mounted on /tmp/disks-conf-hda1
[03:36] <michael> im downloading n installing the gdesklets once its done where it is located
[03:37] <bigfoot1> hugh_: what? you have'nt?
[03:37] <OneSeventeen> are there any cool widget engines for Ubuntu Linux?  (that are easy to code for... much unlike gdesklets?)
[03:37] <st_iron> XHK, than it is mounted on /tmp/disks-conf-hda1
[03:37] <hugh_> bigfoot1, guess there would be someway xorg.conf might help... hold on a tick
[03:37] <bigfoot1> surely there are other native English speakers who want to type in a foreign language
[03:37] <XHK> st_iron: I checked it and I dont have permission to there neither
[03:37] <bigfoot1> hugh_: ok. i'll be right here. thanks
[03:38] <poje> bigfoot1: I doubt you are alone
[03:38] <st_iron> XHK, try umount it and mont with "-t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222"
[03:38] <st_iron> *mount
[03:38] <XHK> ok'
[03:38] <bigfoot1> hugh_: just want you to know that before ,in my pre-dapper days, i was able to switch back and forth using keyboard shortucts, and i was sometimes able to type in japanes into opera.
[03:38] <hugh_> bigfoot1, what is the two-letter code for Japan
[03:38] <bigfoot1> poje: you think so?
[03:38] <bigfoot1> hugh_: jp
[03:39] <afflux> morgen
[03:40] <bigfoot1> poje: i 'm still thinking of what you wrote. So you think I'm alone? Or you think others have the same situation as me?
[03:40] <MarcN> Anyone using dual head system? (ATI)? 2 heads work great, but doesn't fall back to single head properly.
[03:40] <javiolo> is it possible to resize swap without losing anything ?
[03:41] <poje> bigfoot1: I personally know of one person who could benefit from your solution
[03:41] <poje> bigfoot1: so I think there are others like you
[03:41] <bigfoot1> poje: i see
[03:41] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm trying to install ubuntu center, but on the install screen, it just says "connecting to database"
[03:41] <poje> Ight I'll brb
[03:42] <hugh_> bigfoot1, I know you can, I think that they have just removed the keyboard shortcuts in Dapper
[03:42] <bigfoot1> oh now i can switch back and forth
[03:42] <bigfoot1> hugh_: it works now
[03:42] <hugh_> yay :D
[03:42] <bigfoot1> and i don't think i made any changes in the scim setup, or maybe i did while i was waitittg
[03:42] <bigfoot1> hugh_: but how can i type in japanese in opera?
[03:43] <bigfoot1> before i was able to, but only sometimes
[03:43] <javiolo> is it possible to resize swap without losing anything ?
[03:43] <killaz> anyone any idea how I can convert .cdr files to .svg?
[03:43] <XHK> st_iron: sudo umount /media/windows ? or which is the command?
[03:43] <hugh_> killaz, is cdr opened by inkscape?
[03:44] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm trying to install ubuntu center, but on the install screen, it just says "connecting to database"
[03:44] <killaz> hugh_, well I tried but it looks like it cant...
[03:44] <johnZay> how do I steal space from my ntfs partition and give it to Ubuntu withoout wiping any files?
[03:44] <michael> Whats unbuntu centre
[03:44] <paradizelost> !ubuntucetner
[03:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntucetner
[03:44] <paradizelost> !ubuntucenter
[03:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntucenter
[03:44] <michael> !ubuntucentre
[03:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntucentre
[03:45] <hugh_> michael, look at the Ubuntu wiki (wiki.ubuntu.com) before you ask a question
[03:45] <michael> ah k
[03:45] <bina> if I'm using KDE, do I need ubuntu-desktop installed?
[03:45] <tritium> bina: nope
[03:45] <st_iron> XHK, sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 if you wish to mount the win partition to the /media/windows directory
[03:45] <bina> tritium: phew :) thanks
[03:45] <tritium> bina: you should have kubuntu-desktop instead
[03:46] <hugh_> killaz, do a search in synaptic for cdr and see if there are any programs
[03:46] <johnZay> how do I steal space from my ntfs partition and give it to my Ubuntu without wiping any files?
[03:46] <michael> k i installed the gdesklets thing where is it located now :-S
[03:46] <paradizelost> johnZay: do a resize w/ either partition magic or gparted
[03:46] <st_iron> johnZay, gparted
[03:46] <hugh_> michael, right click on the panel
[03:46] <killaz> hugh_, I will
[03:46] <bina> tritium: i do i think.  its just i tried to install gaim beta 3 though apt and apt got rid of ubuntu-desktop :S
[03:46] <javiolo> johnzay gparted
[03:46] <orbin> michael: apps >accessories
[03:46] <st_iron> bye all
[03:47] <tritium> bina: from what repository?
[03:47] <michael> i c  thanks
[03:47] <hugh_> michael, ignore me and pay attention to orbin
[03:47] <bigfoot1> hugh_: thanks for your time
[03:47] <richee> tritium: Do u want to install gaim
[03:47] <hugh_> bigfoot1, it's a pleasure
[03:47] <tritium> richee: no, I'm curious if he's using a 3rd party repo
[03:47] <bina> tritium: oh actually it was dpkg i used first but then it failed due to a dep so i had to do apt-get -f install, which got rid of it
[03:47] <XHK> st_iron: Ok i somehow unmounted it and mounted it back and now it works, but will it be there every time I startup?
[03:47] <richee> tritium: who ?
[03:47] <michael> Where do i get gdesklet shells
[03:47] <bina> tritium: http://mighmos.org/packages.php thats where i got the file from
[03:48] <richee> U can install tons of things with automatix
[03:48] <tritium> richee: bina
[03:48] <rohan> anyone recd. the shipit cd already ?
[03:48] <richee> hi bina nice name
[03:48] <tritium> richee: gaim is installed by default
[03:48] <orbin> michael: shells?
[03:48] <richee> I am talking about gaim beta 2
[03:48] <tritium> richee: and I highly recommend easyubuntu over automatix
[03:48] <richee> ok
[03:48] <hugh_> rohan, does anyone live in the isle of man?
[03:48] <bina> richee: thanks :)
[03:48] <michael> Im in gDesklets Shell
[03:49] <rohan> hugh_: no idea :S
[03:49] <tritium> bina: okay, that's not an official repo, as you're probably aware
[03:49] <rohan> i had ordered one cd each of all 3, and its sent to the company on 24 of last month, now i only wish i had it sooner, so my exhibition of sorts i am holding can go smooth :)
[03:49] <bina> tritium: yeah, i was going to build it myself but somethings up with my GTK, which causes some kind of syntax error when configure tries to build the test program
[03:50] <hugh_> rohan, no, the only people who would have recieved it so far would be those who live in the isle of man or maybe England
[03:50] <tritium> bina: you have the proper -dev libraries instaleld?
[03:50] <tritium> installed even
[03:50] <rohan> hugh_: oh, ok .. i want to see how the enterprize ready cd looks like, too :)
[03:50] <michael> Orbin what i do to add the temp of my pc n that to the desktop
[03:50] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm trying to install ubuntu center, but on the install screen, it just says "connecting to database"
[03:50] <bina> tritium: yeah i think so, apt-get install libgtk-dev and such kept saying that its the newest version
[03:51] <richee> paradizelost: what's ubuntu centre ?
[03:51] <johnZay> ok I'm in Gparted.....  What do i do now to steal the space and give it to Ubuntu?
[03:51] <killaz> hugh_, no luck.. only cdr cdroms stuff.... :S
[03:51] <paradizelost> richee: at least google it
[03:51] <XHK> How can I delete files in terminal?
[03:52] <hugh_> XHK rm
[03:52] <XHK> ok
[03:52] <XHK> ty
[03:52] <orbin> michael: there's gdesklets in there that do that, just try enabling a few and look for it
[03:52] <tritium> paradizelost: which package did you install?  Is it from an edgy repo?
[03:52] <michael> theres no enable button lol
[03:52] <richee> how do I install ubuntu centre
[03:52] <jrib> XHK: to have your windows drive stay like that on startup, you should edit /etc/fstab
[03:52] <boricua> !info desktop
[03:52] <ubotu> Package desktop does not exist in dapper
[03:53] <boricua> !info kubuntu-desktop
[03:53] <ubotu> kubuntu-desktop: Kubuntu desktop system. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.85 (dapper), package size 11 kB, installed size 40 kB
[03:53] <michael> o i c
[03:54] <paradizelost> tritium: it's the .deb from their site.  it works on a desktop install, but the one its not working on is an ubuntu-server install
[03:54] <paradizelost> tritium: and i followed the instructions as far as the other packages are concerned
[03:56] <javiolo> hi
[03:56] <johnZay> How can I resize my ext3 partition if it's being used?
[03:56] <paradizelost> johnZay: you cant
[03:56] <javiolo> I want to resize my swap, Ive downloaded gparted, how can I do it ?
[03:56] <paradizelost> johnZay: it MUST be unmounted
[03:56] <johnZay> so how would I got about resizing it?
[03:56] <hugh_> johnZay, do you have another OS installed
[03:56] <johnZay> bindows
[03:56] <soccio> hi
[03:57] <hugh_> johnZay, you coild do it from there
[03:57] <johnZay> could I use a live cd?
[03:57] <boricua> !info opera
[03:57] <ubotu> Package opera does not exist in dapper
[03:57] <boricua> suprise ubuntu does not have an opera pkg  opera seems like a very good browser
[03:57] <johnZay> does the ubuntu desktop cd have gparted?
[03:58] <hugh_> boricua, opera is propitary
[03:58] <paradizelost> johnZay: yes
[03:58] <soccio> is there anybody having problem mounting cdrom in Dapper after last update?
[03:58] <hugh_> boricua, it is not Free or Open Source Software
[03:58] <johnZay> thanks
[03:58] <boricua> hugh_: i see
[03:58] <johnZay> I gues I shall be back later :-)
[03:58] <javiolo> I want to resize my swap, Ive downloaded gparted, how can I do it ?
[03:59] <hugh_> javiolo, click and drag
[03:59] <javiolo> hugh_ they are locked...
[04:00] <paradizelost> javiolo: you will need to unmount the swap partition with swapoff /dev/hd##
[04:00] <soccio> javiolo, you have to restart ubuntu adding the "noswap" option at the boot.
[04:00] <boricua> javiolo: if you umount and it does not work try a live-cd and then do the resizing
[04:00] <javiolo> boricua ok thanks
[04:00] <javiolo> boricua the ubuntu live cd will work ?
[04:01] <hugh_> javiolo, yes
[04:01] <boricua> i was not able to resize a ext3 partition myself i tried both options and it failed so i did a clean install
[04:02] <XHK> How can I remove directories, rm doesn't seem to work
[04:02] <michael> i installed tor where is it located now?
[04:02] <boricua> XHK, rm -rf
[04:02] <Hobbsee> rm -r
[04:02] <XHK> ty Ill try
[04:03] <yacc> rm -Ri /
[04:04] <michael> Where is tor located?
[04:04] <hugh_> XHK, or just rm -R
[04:04] <neutrinomass> ubotu, tell boricua about opera
[04:04] <neutrinomass> boricua: Maybe that will be of some use ...
[04:05] <XHK> hugh_ whats the difference : P
[04:05] <michael> hugh_ can u please tell me wher tor is located?
[04:05] <hugh_> michael, sudo apt-get install tor
[04:05] <michael> k
[04:06] <michael> says its already installed
[04:06] <michael> but idk how to find it
[04:06] <hugh_> XHK, have a look at rm --help
[04:07] <neutrinomass> uber_mort: Please stop the away messages ....
[04:07] <orbin> michael: dpkg -L <package>
[04:07] <michael> i got it from synatic thing
[04:07] <michael> synaptic
[04:08] <hugh_> micheal try typing 'tor' into the reminal
[04:08] <michael> lol
[04:08] <hugh_> terminal*

[04:08] <hugh_> and ...?
[04:08] <michael> Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
[04:08] <michael> more stuff
[04:08] <michael> but when i type tor byitself in termanl shows this stuff
[04:09] <hugh_> michael, is it more the four lines?
[04:09] <DrShade> Can anybody tell me why my ntfs drive is being mapped to /tmp/disks-conf-hda1 and more important why is it being mapped without an fstab entry?
[04:09] <michael> ii  tor                 0.1.0.15-1ubuntu1   anonymizing overlay network for TCP
[04:09] <michael> yea

[04:10] <michael> no*
[04:10] <michael> how can i test it?
[04:10] <tritium> !enter
[04:10] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.

[04:12] <hugh_> michael, and use traceroute to google
[04:12] <michael> Loacted at?
[04:12] <michael> where is network tools loacted

[04:13] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[04:13] <NoUse> DrShade ^^^
[04:13] <michael> k
[04:13] <michael> i found
[04:13] <hugh_> k
[04:13] <hugh_> good
[04:13] <michael> what i put in network address
[04:13] <michael> google.com
[04:13] <hugh_> michael, good
[04:14] <michael> it shows some ips
[04:14] <orbin> [Finn] : are you certain you need to install the drivers this way?
[04:14] <michael> Whats this doing hugh_?
[04:15] <michael> k its finished
[04:15] <hugh_> it is showing the route that the packets take to get to google
[04:15] <[Finn] > orbin, i'm quite sure, i've seen the same problem on a few forums and it seems like this is what i need
[04:15] <michael> now what?
[04:15] <hugh_> michael, if it comes up with lots of IP address then it is working
[04:15] <DrShade> NoUse, I have read through that, but it isn't helping me understand why my ntfs partition is currently mounted to /tmp/* with no fstab entry?
[04:15] <[Finn] > orbin, or is there another way?
[04:15] <michael> 9
[04:16] <NoUse> DrShade its not mapped to /tmp, its /dev/hda1
[04:16] <michael> hugh_ whats my ip?
[04:16] <michael> show me what it shows u
[04:16] <hugh_> no idea
[04:16] <michael> omfg
[04:16] <NoUse> DrShade the /tmp whatever is what the icon is label and I don't know why that is
[04:16] <michael> stills ame ip
[04:17] <DrShade> NoUse, this is the last line in the output of the mount command: /dev/hda1 on /tmp/disks-conf-hda1 type ntfs (rw)
[04:17] <orbin> [Finn] : have you checked this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported ?
[04:17] <michael> whats this then Jul 02 12:18:43.055 [warn]  /var/lib/tor is not owned by this UID (1000). You must fix this to proceed.
[04:17] <NoUse> DrShade gnome probably mounted it there
[04:18] <jacquesmerde> is it possible to mount my ext3 fs/partition from my windows partition?
[04:18] <Kibou> jacquesmerde: yes
[04:18] <NoUse> !ext3
[04:18] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[04:18] <Frogzoo> who can suggest how to pass the -a option to zope at startup to restrict the binding IPs ?
[04:19] <DrShade> NoUse, well, won't there be problems if Gnome wants to mount it there and I say to mount it elsewhere, say through fstab? ;)
[04:19] <NoUse> DrShade if it finds it in fstab it probably will use the mount point defined there
[04:19] <michael> well?
[04:20] <jacquesmerde> that fs-driver stuff all says ext2....at least it provides support for nostalgia
[04:20] <krazykit> jacquesmerde: ext3 is ext2, just with a journal
[04:21] <soccio> Is there anybody having problems in automatic mount of cdroms after last update of gnomevfs?
[04:21] <krazykit> jacquesmerde: which means you can mount ext3 partitions as ext2 without problems.
[04:21] <jacquesmerde> eeeeeeeexcellent
[04:21] <dr_willis> ext3/2 basics there. :P
[04:22] <dr_willis> we talking about that let XP read ext2 stuff?
[04:22] <krazykit> i've used that fs-driver for reading just fine, i've never tried writing with it though.
[04:23] <dr_willis> krazykit,  ive used it all the time.. just a few little issues here and there.
[04:23] <krazykit> issues like...?
[04:23] <jacquesmerde> i only want to read. i'm a lover not a fighter. i'm a reader not a writer
[04:23] <krazykit> jacquesmerde: ah, then you should have no problems.
[04:23] <dr_willis> some file names under linux - really freak out windows.. (things with : in the names) and issues with soft links
[04:24] <krazykit> now, that reiserfs driver for windows gave me blue screens all the time.
[04:24] <krazykit> but then, all my windows info is a year and a half out of date :-P
[04:24] <dr_willis> ive not heard much good about reiserfs under linux  either. :)
[04:24] <jacquesmerde> i'm assuming that if i want to share a certain batch of files between my windows and linux partitions, i best give the files their own partitions? fat32 would be best, yeah?
[04:24] <krazykit> yeah, fat32 is the best supported, anyway
[04:25] <MarcN> I find that I can sync my palm pilot once before the ttyUSB device goes away.  The only recovery I've found is to reboot.  Any ideas?
[04:25] <dr_willis> also depends on the size of the files and your hd space needs.
[04:25] <Frogzoo> jacquesmerde: that's debatable - you might do best with ext2/3 using ext2fs
[04:25] <Frogzoo> !ext2fs
[04:25] <hugh_> jacquesmerde, there is Windows support for ext2/3
[04:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about ext2fs
[04:26] <Frogzoo> !winext2
[04:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about winext2
[04:26] <krazykit> we sent him the link already
[04:26] <hugh_> ext2fs is a windows program
[04:26] <jacquesmerde> !blah blah
[04:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about blah blah
[04:27] <hugh_> stop that
[04:27] <pussfeller> theres a fuse module for ntfs that works well
[04:27] <jacquesmerde> !myself i am but a bot
[04:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about myself i am but a bot
[04:27] <dr_willis> http://www.fs-driver.org/faq.html
[04:27] <DrShade> NoUse, hmm, I went into Device Manager and there is a key for the hard-drive named "mount.mount_point" which has the /tmp/* entry, should I try and change that to something sane like /media/win ?
[04:27] <krazykit> jacquesmerde: stop abusing the bot, man
[04:27] <pussfeller> havent used it in fuse but as captive ntfs it was fine
[04:27] <pussfeller> read/write
[04:27] <DrShade> Err, make that "volume.mount_point"
[04:27] <NoUse> DrShade I'd use /media/win
[04:28] <dfgas> what is the mac channel?
[04:29] <DrShade> NoUse, it won't let me change it :( I type the change in and click anywhere and it goes back to that dangid /tmp/disks-conf-hda1
[04:29] <NoUse> DrShade I don't know
[04:30] <Frogzoo> pussfeller: there's no good reason to use an unproven NTFS if you can use the windows ext2 driver
[04:30] <NoUse> DrShade you might have to unmount it before you can change it
[04:31] <pussfeller> Frogzoo, im talking in linux, not windows
[04:31] <pussfeller> and afiak, the windows utility that allows you to mount ext2 drives is buggy, at my last check of it
[04:32] <michael> damn tor isnt workin
[04:32] <ubunewbie> hello. i have a proxy problem with synaptic.
[04:32] <pussfeller> ext2explorer works well tho
[04:32] <NoUse> pussfeller I use it no prob, fs-driver.org that is
[04:32] <Frogzoo> pussfeller: sure, but then your data would be better off on ext3, not ntfs
[04:33] <OneSeventeen> I just ran updates and rebooted, and now I can't get my VMWare server Console to come up...  any tips?
[04:33] <NoUse> OneSeventeen you need to rerun vmware-config.pl
[04:33] <pussfeller> yeah ext3 is better than ntfs
[04:33] <OneSeventeen> NoUse: thanks!
[04:34] <ubunewbie> synaptic says it can't reach the repository indexes because "could not connect to localhost:4001 9127.0.0.1). - connection refused."  f course I recognize that this means I haven't successfully installed the proxies I tried to put in. How can I eradicate them - at least until I become smarter - and go back to a direct connection for synaptic? Firefox still works fine.
[04:34] <billybennett> how do I install a deb file through terminal
[04:34] <billybennett> ?
[04:35] <thefish> billybennett: dpkg -i whatever.deb
[04:35] <chrisvio> sudo dpkg -i package_file.deb
[04:35] <thefish> ^ remember sudo ;)
[04:35] <billybennett> thanks thefish, chrisvio
[04:37] <hugh_> ubunewbie, Firefox would have it's own proxy settings
[04:38] <NoUse> ubunewbie synaptics network config is in Settings -> Preferences from inside synaptic
[04:38] <hugh_> ubunewbie, have you changed the proxy settings under 'Network Proxy'
[04:39] <ubunewbie> Nouse: synaptic/preferences/network still says "direct connection to the internet."  No proxies are enabled there.
[04:39] <whyami> what reads djvu format besides evince? Evince keeps crashing on me....
[04:39] <NoUse> ubunewbie what about gnomes network proxy settings?
[04:40] <ubunewbie> nouse: how do i get to that?
[04:40] <NoUse> ubuntulog System->Prefs
[04:41] <a|K|a> can you easily upgrade the kernal for ubuntu?
[04:41] <ubunewbie> um, where is ubuntulog.  sorry for stupidity
[04:42] <NoUse> a|K|a to one that is not in synaptic?
[04:42] <NoUse> ubunewbie ubuntulog?
[04:42] <a|K|a> i AM NEWBERT...
[04:42] <a|K|a> err sorry caps
[04:42] <a|K|a> I didn't know you could upgrade that way
[04:42] <a|K|a> that is really easy
[04:42] <ubunewbie> your previous message said "ubuntulog System-> Prefs"
[04:42] <IronMask|GT3A-sp> \nick IronMask|GT3
[04:43] <nicholaspaul> anyone with experience installing ubuntu on an old world Mac? (G3)
[04:43] <gnomefreak> IronMask|GT3A-sp: try without the space in front
[04:43] <NoUse> ubunewbie oh oops, tab complete
[04:43] <gdb> Is it possible to see every installed package that came from Universe or Multiverse only?
[04:43] <gnomefreak> there u go ;)

[04:43] <gnomefreak> gdb: package.ubuntu.com
[04:43] <gnomefreak> packages.ubuntu.com
[04:43] <hugh_> gdb all packages that are installed should show up

[04:44] <IronMask|GT3> lol gnomefreak... too drunk... wrong slash
[04:44] <gdb> hugh_: Yes, I understand that, that's the problem.
[04:44] <stgraber> nicholaspaul: I did that some times ago, if I can help you
[04:44] <nicholaspaul> nalioth: hey. i'm having trouble with terminal commands. Can I chmod ?i'm installing ubuntu, got to the terminal with ALT-F2 but can't copy...
[04:44] <gnomefreak> lol
[04:44] <gnomefreak> gdb: i think it is but not sure what the syntax is
[04:44] <nicholaspaul> sure stgraber - ALT F2 gets me a terminal - is that a linux terminal or OS9?
[04:45] <NoUse> nicholaspaul where are you trying to copy to?
[04:45] <pepster> is there a seamonkey .deb for dapper?
[04:45] <hugh_> gdb, so just look down the list and see if ubuntu-base is installed
[04:45] <ubunewbie> nouse: so system->prefs->network settings->Ethernet Connection (?)
[04:45] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: trying to copy kernel files to hfs/System but it says 'Read Only'
[04:45] <NoUse> ubunewbie

[04:45] <NoUse> ubunewbie System->Prefs->Network Proxy
[04:46] <hugh_> gdb, what are you asking?
[04:46] <irbdavid> hiya, can someone point me in the right direction to set up a 1680x1050 monitor?
[04:46] <NoUse> nicholaspaul you need to mount it read/write probably
[04:46] <gdb> hugh_: I want to get a listing, from my system, of *only* those packages that came from the Universe and Mutiverse repositories, nothing else.  A listing *only* of *installed* packages that came *only* from Universe or Multiverse.
[04:46] <ubunewbie> NoUse:  system->Prefs->Network Proxy still says "direct internet connection" which sort of surprises me.
[04:46] <DrShade> NoUse, well, still not sure why /tmp/* was chosen by Gnome to mount my ntfs drive, but, I unmounted it, added the relative fstab entry, mounted all and there it is in /media/win - oh well, just hope it will hold up after system restarts whenever!
[04:46] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: aaah..the command i used was 'mount /dev/hda8 hfs -t hfs'
[04:47] <NoUse> ubunewbie well that did you change when you set up the proxy?
[04:47] <hugh_> gdb, go to the custom tab on synaptic
[04:47] <pepster> anyone knows where to get seamonkey .deb for dapper? or a repository containing one?
[04:47] <gdb> hugh_: That's the Add/Remove Applications off the main menu?
[04:48] <hugh_> gdb, no, it's in System > Administration
[04:48] <ubunewbie> nouse:all i did was install anon-proxy and privoxy.  then no luck.  and now i uninstalled them.  still no luck
[04:49] <hugh_> gdb, once open, then in the bottom left-hand corner there is custom
[04:49] <gdb> hugh_: Yes, I see that.
[04:49] <hugh_> click on it
[04:49] <gdb> got it
[04:49] <ubunewbie> maybe i need to reinstall. . .
[04:49] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: how do i add r/w to mount /dev/hda8 hfs -t hfs ?
[04:49] <hugh_> then go to the menu up top and select settings
[04:50] <hugh_> then filters
[04:50] <gdb> ok
[04:50] <NoUse> nicholaspaul add -o rw
[04:50] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: Thanks !!
[04:50] <NoUse> ubunewbie search the forms for those packages
[04:50] <NoUse> ubunewbie I'm sure someone else has come across this
[04:51] <george_looney> !tell george_looney about java
[04:51] <hugh_> gdb, new filter, then select the tab Section and then select all of the sections that you want included
[04:51] <ubunewbie> yeah, i looked, maybe i have to look deeper.  just seems this should be something obvious, because clearly synaptic is trying to go through a proxy, so it must have its proxy settings somewhere
[04:52] <irbdavid> hi how do i set up a widescreen monitor?
[04:53] <gdb> hugh_: ah, right on!  I see what it's doing now.
[04:53] <NoUse> ubunewbie have you logged out and then back in since removing the software?
[04:53] <gdb> hugh_: thank  you!
[04:53] <hugh_> irbdavid, do you have all of it's specs (horizontal sync, vertical refresh, acctual size in mm)
[04:54] <DrShade> Cheers all.
[04:54] <irbdavid> could probably find them out hugh_
[04:54] <Semaphore> http://impurity.org/~stalyn/fuxed.png --> that is what happens with the new fglrx drivers
[04:54] <Semaphore> but i can get it sort of visible changing modelines
[04:54] <hugh_> irbdavid, then 'sudo gedit (or your favorite editor) /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:55] <burepe2> what ways are there to make a cd boot . I can't find boot order in the bios
[04:56] <Stormx2> hi everyone!!
[04:56] <pepster> when I start X with the external monitor connected, X comes up in 640x480 0n my 1680x1050 laptop LCD. fun
[04:57] <hugh_> irbdavid, create a backup ('sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak')
[04:57] <gdb> hugh_: I'd like to thank you for your help with that.  That allowed me to back out to only the "Supported" software.  Thanks again!
[04:57] <Stormx2> pepster reconfigure your X server?
[04:57] <hugh_> gdb, it's a pleasure
[04:57] <hugh_> :)
[04:57] <__2> Someone know a way to load metacity for a specific application instead of using it for a whole display?
[04:58] <hugh_> irbdavid, then scroll down to the monitor section
[04:58] <pepster> tried various times, only xorg.conf that works with an external monitor is the one I had from breezy, and that works only sos so
[04:58] <irbdavid> uh huh
[04:58] <dooglus> ubunewbie: what do you see if you run "env | grep -i proxy" in a terminal?
[04:59] <Stormx2> pepster: Try using the wizard?
[04:59] <Stormx2> !xorg
[04:59] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:59] <Stormx2> oh hold on
[04:59] <Stormx2> hmm
[04:59] <pepster> which wizard?
[04:59] <neutrinomass> Why is gnome-screensaver running at all times ?
[04:59] <HellDragon> ctrl+alt+backspace works too.
[04:59] <Stormx2> I'm trying to remember ;)
[04:59] <Stormx2> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorgpepste
[04:59] <Stormx2> Ack
[04:59] <hugh_> irbdavid, it should have 	HorizSync and 	VertRefresh there
[05:00] <pepster> I am usign the ati drivers. the card is ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Mobility X600 (M24)
[05:00] <Stormx2> pepster: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:00] <dooglus> neutrinomass: what would you want it to do?
[05:00] <Stormx2> Trying to eat ice lolly and IRC at same time ^_^
[05:00] <irbdavid> hugh_: yep
[05:00] <pepster> xserver-xorgpepste????
[05:00] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Only run when I want a screensaver displayed?
[05:00] <Sgeo> Bye all. Be back later
[05:00] <hugh_> irbdavid, now write down this command onto a piece of paper just incase 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[05:01] <dooglus> neutrinomass: maybe we could have a separate process called "gnome-screensaver-runner" which would wait for you to be idle and then run gnome-screensaver?
[05:01] <ikken> I installed Xfce and now "Lock Screen" won't do anything - what do I do?
[05:01] <dooglus> neutrinomass: but then you would complain that gnome-screensaver-runner was always running I guess.  so maybe we could make a gnome-screensaver-runner-runner which would - no, wait, that's just silly.
[05:01] <jacquesmerde> ikken: i think xfce's lock screen requires a screensaver  like xscreensaver
[05:02] <pepster> synaptic does not show any xserver-xorgpepste
[05:02] <hugh_> irbdavid, then edit those so they are the same as your monitors. Then scroll down a bit more to the screen section.
[05:02] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Exactly my thought...
[05:02] <irbdavid> okay
[05:02] <Semaphore> i think there is a problem
[05:02] <Semaphore> with the latest ati drivers
[05:02] <jacquesmerde> how do i reformat a cdrw?
[05:02] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Well, I'm taking a look at Gnome memory usage and I noticed gnome-screensaver at 1.1%
[05:02] <dooglus> neutrinomass: so how is gnome-screensaver supposed to know when to start running?
[05:02] <ikken> jacquesmerde: no, I mean the Lock Screen in GNOME - that's not working - I uninstalled Xfce because I thought it caused the problem
[05:02] <Semaphore> with regards to 1680x1050 resolutions
[05:02] <Semaphore> i cant seem to get the modelines correct for my monitor
[05:02] <Semaphore> even thou it has worked for other cards
[05:03] <jacquesmerde> ikken: in that case, i'm out of my depth. good luck!
[05:03] <hugh_> irbdavid,  then under Depth 24 on the next line add the native resolution for your screen
[05:03] <hugh_> eg 2048x768
[05:03] <hugh_> or what ever
[05:03] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Not sure how to interpret the memory readings, its quite an art in itself. I was thinking 1. Make it more lightweight while waiting for activation or 2. Put it in a lightweight wrapper ...
[05:04] <dooglus> neutrinomass: it's almost certainly swapped out, taking zero memory, most of the time
[05:04] <irbdavid> right
[05:04] <ubunewbie> dooglus: sorry i had stepped away for a minute.  when i do "env L grep -i proxy" i get
[05:04] <ubunewbie> http_proxy=http://localhost:4001
[05:04] <ubunewbie> HTTP_PROXY=http://localhost:4001
[05:04] <ubunewbie> . . .and those are exactly the proxies that synaptic is going through and failing to get through
[05:04] <NoUse> ubunewbie go to a terminal and run 'env | grep -i proxy'
[05:04] <Stormx2> Uh oh, I'm not getting any sound :(
[05:04] <dooglus> ubunewbie: that's why it's using a proxy then.
[05:04] <NoUse> ubunewbie always one step ahead :-)
[05:04] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Agreed. But reducing memory usage wouldn't hurt (I'm only looking into this because I hate the fact that I can't get a modern Linux running on my P100 :P )
[05:05] <hugh_> irbdavid, now save and restart x (ctrl-alt-bksp)
[05:05] <ikken> does anyone know why installing Xfce would cause problems on GNOME - I can't get the screensaver to work on gnome. gnome-screensaver crashes the panel.
[05:05] <ubunewbie> okay, how do i kill it?
[05:05] <pepster> the ati drivers work find for the LCD 1680x1050, it is the external 1680x1050 monitor it barf on
[05:05] <pepster> the ati drivers work finn for the LCD laptop screen 1680x1050, it is the external 1680x1050 monitor it barf on
[05:05] <NoUse> ubunewbie 'grep -i proxy /etc/*'
[05:05] <Semaphore> they dont work properly with radeon 9200 pro mobility
[05:05] <NoUse> ubunewbie see where its being set
[05:05] <dooglus> ubunewbie: I think NoUse means "grep -i proxy /etc/init.d/*"
[05:05] <Stormx2> Ack my sound is the broken :(
[05:05] <pepster> anyone here runs the fglrx ones?
[05:06] <NoUse> dooglus no I don't
[05:06] <Semaphore> pepster yes those are the ones im trying too
[05:06] <irbdavid> okey dokey
[05:06] <Semaphore> i get flgrx running with screen distortion
[05:06] <ikken> ok, I think I've got an idea - completely removing gnome-screensaver, and then reinstalling it - would this mess up anything?
[05:06] <irbdavid> i'll give that a go.  cheers
[05:06] <NoUse> ubunewbie you removed all those proxy apps you installed right?
[05:06] <neutrinomass> dooglus: Although I have to admit that it doesn't look half as simple as I had thought it to be ...
[05:06] <Semaphore> what dont understand friend has older radeon card 9000
[05:06] <Semaphore> and his works fine
[05:06] <Semaphore> but craps on mine
[05:07] <neutrinomass> ikken: Highly unlikely that it will ...
[05:07] <hugh_> irbdavid, good luck
[05:07] <Stormx2> Ima reboot :(
[05:07] <irbdavid> taa
[05:07] <pepster> on the external monitor, it seem to get either the resolution or refresh rate wrong, since it looks horrible, and it looked fine on breezy
[05:07] <ubunewbie> yes i removed the proxy aps
[05:07] <Semaphore> no idea
[05:07] <Semaphore> gonna use something else later
[05:08] <NoUse> ubunewbie check /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc to see if its being set ther
[05:08] <FeeR^> anyone able to get fancontrol/pwmconfig to work?  i've got fans running at full blast for no reason
[05:08] <Tommy2k4> you all checked out opera9 final?
[05:08] <webguy> i have a cron script that wgets a php page ... when the cron runs i get an error "Unsupported scheme"  - any suggestions?
[05:09] <dooglus> webguy: is it an https:// URL?
[05:09] <webguy> no just a normal php script that i wrote
[05:10] <ubunewbie> hold on will give the pastebin url in a sec
[05:10] <Nux31> how do I run updates under Terminal ?
[05:10] <Ng> Nux31: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:10] <h34rtburn> why are wireless connections so damn hard to set up....
[05:10] <dooglus> Nux31: sudo bash -c "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"
[05:10] <hugh_> h34rtburn, just are
[05:10] <NoUse> h34rtburn mostly because companies don't give us the specs to their cards
[05:11] <Nux31> okay thanks
[05:11] <webguy> any ideas?
[05:11] <h34rtburn> hmm..that's just great..
[05:11] <dooglus> webguy: is the page public?  if so, what's the URL?
[05:11] <hugh_> h34rtburn, and also we don't have the resourced to produce the "zero-config" products of MS and Mac
[05:11] <dfgas> what is the mac channel for ubuntu?
[05:11] <webguy> dooglus: it si not supposed to be a public page
[05:12] <h34rtburn> my biggest problem is that every manual/advice/anything tells me to "download" something in order to get my wireless to work
[05:12] <dooglus> webguy: it's hard to help then.
[05:12] <hugh_> h34rtburn, do you use WPA
[05:12] <hugh_> ?
[05:12] <h34rtburn> not at the moment
[05:12] <krazykit> dfgas: #ubuntu-ppc maybe?  i dunno.
[05:13] <webguy> do you know what the typical error means?
[05:13] <dooglus> webguy: can you pastebin the output of "wget -S" on your URL?
[05:13] <hugh_> h34rtburn, have a look around wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:13] <dfgas> ty
[05:13] <ubunewbie> nouse and dooglus: http://ubunewbie.pastebin.com/721034
[05:13] <pinucset> does somebody have a sony vaio fe21s with its webcam working?
[05:13] <hugh_> h34rtburn, that has solved most questions
[05:13] <Stormx2> Sound is working again *woot*
[05:13] <h34rtburn> hugh_, I did...but it all tells me I have to download something....but I ahve no internet connection on my ubuntu machine
[05:14] <hugh_> what did it want you to download?
[05:14] <NoUse> ubunewbie in the future use paste.ubuntu-nl.org, pastebin.com is always bogged down
[05:14] <dooglus> h34rtburn: you can download from another machine and use a CD or memory stick to transfer the file
[05:14] <h34rtburn> dooglus: I know :) but that's a pain, I ws hoping there was an easier way
[05:14] <h34rtburn> hugh_: stuff like nsdiswrapper
[05:15] <Hobbsee> !ndiswrapper > h34rtburn
[05:15] <h34rtburn> hm?
[05:15] <hugh_> If you are using a wireless card that is not nativly supported by Linux then ndiswrapper is the answer
[05:15] <h34rtburn> ah, pm..thanks
[05:16] <dooglus> ubunewbie: what about: "grep -ir http_proxy /etc ~/.[a-zA-Z] *" ?
[05:16] <pinucset> how do i configure kmilo?
[05:16] <h34rtburn> I guess I'll be reading a wiki tonight :)
[05:16] <ubunewbie> nouse & dooglus, crossposted to paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16086
[05:17] <hugh_> h34rtburn, you should be able download the packages of ndiswrapper on your current machine (in a .deb) from packages.ubuntu.com then use a flash disk or somthing to move them
[05:17] <hugh_> to your ubuntu machine
[05:17] <irbdavid> hugh_: no luck, had to reconfigure.  'no screens found' error
[05:17] <NoUse> ubunewbie reinstall anon-proxy and then run 'sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy'
[05:17] <irbdavid> might be something to do with the nvidia package also?
[05:17] <Hobbsee> h34rtburn: check out that page that ubotu sent you - teh one on ndiswrapper, it's got a section on what to do if you have no net connection on the computer needing ndiswrapper
[05:18] <h34rtburn> hugh_: I guess I don't have any other options...thanks
[05:18] <h34rtburn> hobbsee: I'm looking at that page right now, thanks
[05:20] <ubunewbie> nouse: well, i couldn't get the file through synaptic because of the proxy blocking synaptic. . .har har.  will get via browser http
[05:20] <NoUse> ubunewbie no wait
[05:20] <NoUse> ubunewbie just run 'unset http_proxy && unset HTTP_PROXY'
[05:20] <ubunewbie> waiting
[05:20] <NoUse> ubunewbie then apt-get should work
[05:20] <dooglus> ubunewbie: we didn't find out what's setting http_proxy for you yet.  it would be worth finding out.
[05:21] <NoUse> dooglus once we purge anon-proxy's config files we can check /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc
[05:22] <ubunewbie> nouse:  i ran the 'unset http_proxy. . ." line above.  am d/l ing the .deb of anon-proxy.  should i reinstall and then run the sudo lines?
[05:22] <ubunewbie> dooglus: pls clarify
[05:22] <NoUse> ubuntulog you can just apt-get
[05:22] <NoUse> ubunewbie you can just use apt-get
[05:23] <NoUse> ubunewbie it should work in the console you ran 'unset'
[05:23] <NoUse> ubunewbie 'sudo apt-get install anon-proxy && sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy'
[05:24] <dooglus> ubunewbie: can you paste output from: "grep -ir http_proxy /etc ~/.[a-zA-Z] * 2>/dev/null" please?
[05:24] <irbdavid> okay, definitely got the nvidia module up and running okay.
[05:24] <dooglus> NoUse: purging anon-proxy's config may well destroy any evidence of what the problem is.  that will fix the bug for ubunewbie but leave it broken for everyone else...
[05:25] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: i tried mount /dev/hda6 hfs -t hfs -o rw but 'mount' still says its (ro nodiratime) - how can i mount it r/w?
[05:25] <XHK> Gaim won't show up in system tray, though its enabled in gaim's config. Anyone got idea, what could be wrong?
[05:26] <ubunewbie> paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16088 is output from sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy
[05:27] <ubunewbie> no output whatsoever from grep -ir http_proxy . . .
[05:27] <Jayqwando> hello, ive been trying to install ubuntu on this laptop
[05:27] <NoUse> ubunewbie you didn't read the whole command, you need to install anon-proxy first
[05:28] <NoUse> ubunewbie then run the purge command
[05:28] <Jayqwando> the installer unzips everything, but then the screen goes blank
[05:28] <XVampireX> Hey, anyone knows where to get ffmpeg-devel package or something similar? It's not in the repositories
[05:29] <NoUse> nicholaspaul I don't know
[05:29] <nix_user> bot attacks huh
[05:29] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: :( thats ok. I'll keep hunting. Cheers!
[05:29] <ubunewbie> okay i reinstalled anon_proxy.  do i run the "sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy" line now or the "grep -ir http_proxy. . ."
[05:29] <ubunewbie> by the way, let me say, i really appreciate your help.  thank you.
[05:30] <nix_user> will edgy be back on schedule for usual ubuntu release date?
[05:31] <Hobbsee> nix_user: that's the plan, i think
[05:31] <NoUse> ubunewbie also, try logging out and back in and see if that clears it up
[05:31] <Hobbsee> nix_user: as of last night anyway
[05:31] <nix_user> hobbsee ok
[05:31] <Jayqwando> if anyone can help me, tell Warlord384 cause i gotta reboot
[05:31] <ubunewbie> i had tried rebooting before, and nothing.  shall i try again?
[05:31] <dope_> im stuck @ 640x480 res on X ... using the most recent version of Dapper..any suggestions?
[05:32] <NoUse> ubunewbie if the grep command doesn't return anything, try logging out and then back in
[05:32] <NoUse> ubunewbie no need to reboot
[05:32] <irbdavid> hugh_: cheers, got it working now :D
[05:32] <NoUse> !tell dope_ about fixres
[05:33] <ubunewbie> okay logged out & back in
[05:33] <NoUse> has ubotu's syntax changed?
[05:33] <dope_> NoUse: ive checked out the !resolution on ubotu's ..still havent gotten anywhere
[05:33] <Hobbsee> NoUse: partially.  your syntax works
[05:34] <Hobbsee> NoUse: it doesnt give the "i've told so and so about foo" messages anymore
[05:34] <NoUse> Hobbsee ahhh, ok thanks
[05:34] <Hobbsee> NoUse: if the factoid doesnt exist, it displays it in the main channel
[05:35] <NoUse> thanks
[05:35] <dooglus> ubunewbie: have you logged out and in again since uninstalling those proxy packages?  'cos you probably need to.
[05:35] <dope_> anyone else can help with the 640x480 res?
[05:35] <ubunewbie> dooglus: yes
[05:35] <dooglus> ubunewbie: and "env | grep proxy" still prints stuff?  or not?
[05:36] <buggzero> !anyone
[05:36] <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?
[05:36] <smev9_> hi everybody
[05:36] <someothernick> hi smev9_
[05:36] <buggzero> My xmodmap is bezerk how do i reset it to normal settings for compiz
[05:36] <Spec> How much space does /proc normally take up?
[05:37] <smev9_> i have 1gb at proc
[05:37] <ubunewbie> well, hold on.  i uninstalled them, logged out and back in, they were still there.  now, as per NoUse suggestion i reinstalled anon_proxy, presumably because it's easier to eradicate at once(?).  so, it is currently in the system.  and when i run env | grep proxy i get "http_proxy=http://localhost:4001"
[05:37] <Spec> better yet, what is
[05:37] <Ng> Spec: it doesn't, /proc is a virtual file system
[05:37] <Spec> err, /proc/kcore
[05:37] <NoUse> ubunewbie did you run the purge command?
[05:38] <ColdShots> Hi, how do I load libtls1.50.so?
[05:38] <Spec> 'cause my /proc/kcore is 897M
[05:38] <Spec> Ng: proc is in ram?
[05:38] <Ng> Spec: it should be roughly the same size as your RAM I believe
[05:38] <Ng> Spec: yes
[05:38] <Spec> alrighty
[05:38] <buggzero> coldshots your going to need to download that library
[05:38] <ElBarono> why did my screensaver stop locking when I close my laptop lid?
[05:38] <ColdShots> I have it downloaded already
[05:38] <someothernick> dope_, what vid card are you using?
[05:38] <Khamael> how can I make movies in firefox to work? now I only get sound and "no picture" at the top :(
[05:38] <ColdShots> I thought it was something like libmod
[05:38] <dooglus> ubunewbie: let's see where NoUse is going with his idea of reinstalling the proxy programs.  If that doesn't work, come back to me and I'll try helping you.
[05:38] <dope> someothernick: i845G intel
[05:39] <ubunewbie> dooglus: okay, many thanks.
[05:39] <ubunewbie> nouse: anonproxy is reinstalled.  i logged out and back in.  and am ready to do your bidding
[05:39] <NoUse> ubunewbie did you run 'sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy'?
[05:39] <ubunewbie> will do that now
[05:39] <NoUse> ubunewbie you were supposed to purge it before loggin out

[05:39] <sivik_> is there a way to translate pages in firefox
[05:39] <Spec> a gig in /usr/lib and almost a gig in /usr/share :-/
[05:40] <munckfish> ColdShots: what do you mean 'load'?
[05:40] <NoUse> ubunewbie after you purge it, log out and back in
[05:40] <ubunewbie> okay, i didn't do that before logging out.  i think that comes from confusion between whether i shouild do what you or dooglus said.  right now i'm following you.  shall i run sudo apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy now?
[05:40] <ubunewbie> nouse: okay, will purge now
[05:40] <Sivik> anyone play quake2
[05:41] <ColdShots> munckfish: amsn doesn't detect the file
[05:41] <dope> i just installed Dapper, and i cant get out of 640x480 resolution, any help?

[05:41] <Sivik> dope: did you try installing your video drivers?
[05:41] <smev9_> i always wanted to leave ms xp behind, is wine (or something else) capable to emulate what i would miss ? ( e.g. games)
[05:41] <ColdShots> how do I install libtls on my system?
[05:41] <munckfish> ColdShots: ok I see
[05:41] <b08y_> hello guy, someone tried to remove mldonkey?
[05:42] <munckfish> ColdShots: one moment
[05:42] <dope> Sivik: i dont think so, just what came with the Distro
[05:42] <ubunewbie> NoUse: purged, logged out, logged back in
[05:42] <Sivik> smev9_, what games
[05:42] <dope> someothernick: ok ill check that out
[05:42] <ColdShots> thank you
[05:42] <irbdavid> remind me how to set the defaut in grub?
[05:42] <someothernick> !intel
[05:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about intel
[05:42] <Sivik> dope: try installing your drivers, what kind of video card?
[05:42] <NoUse> ubunewbie 'env | grep -i proxy' ?
[05:42] <smev9_> @ sivik all the games hl2 oblibion ...
[05:42] <dope> Sivik: its Intel 845G onboard
[05:42] <justthisguy> smev9_: i think steam games ie cs:s is ok
[05:43] <Sivik> smev9_, try using VM software, most of the games don't work yet in linux
[05:43] <jrib> ColdShots: apt-cache search -n lib tls
[05:43] <munckfish> ColdShots: seems amsn doesn't pull in that library directly in the package dependencies
[05:43] <smev9_> i thought so, thanks @ sivik
[05:43] <munckfish> ColdShots: yeah try what jrib said
[05:43] <g_wark> aare the xlibs for cedega on the wiki?
[05:43] <FeeR^> anyone able to get fancontrol/pwmconfig to work?  i've got fans running at full blast for no reason
[05:44] <ColdShots> libgnutls12 - the GNU TLS library - runtime library
[05:44] <dope> Sivik: im fairly new to Linux, not sure where i go to update/download video drivers
[05:44] <ColdShots> I guess I should man apt-cache?
[05:44] <_nano_> !wine
[05:44] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more information.
[05:44] <Sivik> dope: let me find it for you
[05:44] <b08y_> hello, i need help with mldonkey, if i tried to remove mldonkey i get an error
[05:44] <SurfnKid> how can i disable the editing options when GRUB boots
[05:44] <jrib> ColdShots: nah, that just lets you search.  Now that you know what it is called, you can install it with: sudo apt-get install libgnutls12
[05:45] <dope> Sivik: thank you bro
[05:45] <ubunewbie> NoUse: paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16090
[05:45] <smev9_> easyubuntu was a helper @ dope
[05:45] <babo> So I have bash scripts that email text using the cli php. It keeps returning errors though whenever my MESSAGE="text isn't right" has a single quote in it. Now I can escape the single quote, but often that comes out as backslash-quote on the web page I'm sending my message to ...
[05:45] <ColdShots> hmm weird it says libgnutls12 is already the newest version.
[05:45] <munckfish> ColdShots: libtls doesn't exist on the system
[05:46] <Sivik> dope: does it have HT? the board that is
[05:46] <munckfish> ColdShots: if you already have it - like I do
[05:46] <dope> Sivik: Hyperthreading? no i dont think it does
[05:46] <ColdShots> ok I have gnutls but I need tls1.50
[05:46] <Sivik> dope: ok
[05:46] <BCK> how do you get rid of the boxes in gnome and have an address bar instead ?
[05:46] <munckfish> ColdShots: then you could try creating a symlink to the real one using that exact name that amsn expects
[05:46] <NoUse> ubunewbie check ~/.bash_profile  and ~/.bashrc
[05:47] <mrkoje> BCK, you have to go to edit>>preferences>>behavior and then click on "Always use text-entry location bar"
[05:47] <Sivik> dope: try the 5th entry: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97317
[05:47] <BCK> ok ty mrkoje
[05:47] <dope> Sivik: ok
[05:48] <BCK> tyvm :)
[05:48] <munckfish> ColdShots: well seeing as that looks like we have an older version than amsn is looking for
[05:48] <ColdShots> ok
[05:48] <munckfish> ColdShots: maybe that needs to be raised on launchpad as an 'issue'
[05:48] <ubunewbie> NoUse: what do I check about them?
[05:49] <munckfish> ColdShots: you don't like gaim for msn?
[05:49] <NoUse> ubunewbie see if they are setting http_proxy
[05:49] <mrkoje> I like gaim
[05:49] <ColdShots> never tried it
[05:49] <munckfish> ColdShots: if you are just looking for a way to use MSN gaim will do it (plus a bunch of other protocols to boot)
[05:50] <smev9_> if there is a version  (of wine) for Breezy Badger, should i use that, or compile from source.   Which way is better in general (not only for wine)
[05:50] <dope> Sivik: no luck with that, i've tried that
[05:50] <ubunewbie> NoUse "proxy" phrase not found in these files
[05:50] <munckfish> ColdShots: aMsn maybe trying to do something a bit extra by using libtls - as msn protocol itself is not encrypted
[05:50] <jwickard> I installed soundconverter using synaptic, but the program doesn't seem to work. I import mp3's  output is set to ogg, I click convert, it tries to work for a split second, then says it's done, but nothing is converted / created.
[05:50] <ColdShots> ok
[05:51] <SurfnKid> how can i show hidden folders with 'ls'
[05:51] <jwickard> anyone seen that before?
[05:51] <jrib> SurfnKid: ls -a
[05:51] <dope> -a
[05:51] <SurfnKid> jrib: :P i was in the wrong folder
[05:51] <SurfnKid> and i was already trying that
[05:52] <NoUse> ubunewbie check the following files /etc/environment, /etc/profile, and  /etc/bash.bashrc
[05:52] <sebpayne> i'm having a few troubles with my PowerBook G4 12" and Ubuntu LTS
[05:52] <sebpayne> firstly - the trackerpad is very very slow and i can't find an solution to speed it up
[05:52] <dope> geez there's gotta be a way out of 640x480 :/
[05:52] <sebpayne> second - the WiFi doesn't seem to work at all
[05:52] <sebpayne> third - i can't get the external display working
[05:52] <ColdShots> ok cool, I like gaim!
[05:53] <ColdShots> thanks, cya later maybe
[05:53] <McScruff> sebpayne, you wifi issiue is coz you need ndiswrapper as i think apple use broadcom
[05:53] <ubunewbie> noUse: no reference to proxy in any of those
[05:53] <dope> anyone know how to get 955resolution working properly
[05:53] <sebpayne> McScruff: there is a broadcom driver in the kernel but fo rsome reason, it is not being enabled
[05:54] <NoUse> ubunewbie try rebooting
[05:54] <freezey> My ubuntu is running rather slow.... i have 3 drives in the machine and i installed it on the smallest drive... u think thats the main reason why its running this slow?
[05:54] <ubunewbie> nouse: okay
[05:54] <Sivik> freezey, how much ram do you have?
[05:54] <Sivik> anyone here play quake2
[05:55] <McScruff> sebpayne, im using it atm and it sucks :)

[05:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about i845g
[05:55] <someothernick> :/
[05:55] <Jemt> Greetings. Because if the many bugs in Dapper, I am still working on going back to Breezy - I just can't accept all the obsolete software. So what would it take to compile Gnome and all my other programs from sources? Dependencies are always a problem I think
[05:55] <Jemt> if = of
[05:55] <Sivik> McScruff: you know that the 2.6.17 has the broadcom drivers natively?
[05:55] <dope> !955resolution
[05:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about 955resolution
[05:56] <McScruff> Sivik, it will have the same as ubuntu currently has
[05:56] <Sivik> dope: did that not work
[05:56] <andersje> Jemt: which bugs?
[05:56] <dope> Sivik: no it didnt,
[05:56] <Sivik> McScruff: but you have to install new firmware to get it to work
[05:56] <a_l_e> how do i install java on dapper?
[05:56] <McScruff> Sivik, yes, the same as you currently do :)
[05:56] <a_l_e> !java
[05:56] <ubunewbie> nouse: rebooted
[05:56] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[05:56] <dope> i actually had this same issue on Breezy
[05:56] <freezey> sivik: its atleast a gig
[05:56] <Jemt> andersje: The OS freezes 1-3 times a day, I'm running USB 1.1 on USB 2.0 hardware, my Wireless network card is not found (worked great in Breezy)
[05:57] <Sivik> McScruff: ok, maybe thats the problem with the fact that i can get it to find anything when i do a iwlist scan
[05:57] <McScruff> dope, screen res on lappy with intel chip?
[05:57] <NoUse> ubunewbie still set?
[05:57] <someothernick> dope what board is it?
[05:57] <McScruff> Sivik, i cant either, i use network manager with it :)
[05:57] <andersje> Jemt: wow.  I have none of those problems, but, as usual, YMMV
[05:57] <dope> McScruff: if that means stuck on a sucky res, then yes lol
[05:57] <Jemt> andersje: YMMV ?
[05:57] <andersje> Jemt: have you installed all available upgrades/patches?
[05:57] <dope> someothernick: what do you mean?
[05:57] <andersje> YMMV == your mileage may vary
[05:57] <Jemt> andersje: Yep
[05:57] <Sivik> McScruff: but network manager won't give me a IP
[05:57] <someothernick> model of board?
[05:57] <Jemt> andersje: Ah, ok
[05:58] <McScruff> Sivik, mine does :(
[05:58] <Sivik> McScruff: lucky
[05:58] <ubunewbie> nouse: should i go back into synaptic and try again?
[05:58] <Sivik> McScruff: but you installed the new firmware right
[05:58] <McScruff> yes
[05:58] <dope> someothernick: uhm, pentium4 board?
[05:58] <NoUse> ubunewbie that or just go to a terminal and run 'env | grep -i proxy'
[05:58] <krazykit> atheros wireless cards are well supported in linux, right?
[05:58] <freezey> sivik: its gotta be all these servers i am running thats slowin meup
[05:59] <McScruff> dope , 955resolution 5c 1280 800 24  :)
[05:59] <Jemt> krazykit: Some are
[05:59] <McScruff> dope , look in the wiki there is a bit on it
[05:59] <dope> McScruff: lets see if that works, ok
[05:59] <Sivik> freezey, but i though you said your computer was running slow, or is x-chat just being slow?

[06:00] <NoUse> ubunewbie ok, run 'gconf2-editor' in the terminal
[06:00] <andersje> krazykit: I'm having no problems with my atheros card
[06:00] <Jemt> I'm just so tired of Linux. Every time a new version of a given distro is released, it becomes incompatible with ones computer, and one haft to move on to a new distro. I am so fu.. (sorry) tired of it. And there is no way I am going back to Windows
[06:00] <NoUse> ubunewbie open system and click on http_proxy, what is set?
[06:00] <andersje> Jemt: why upgrade if your existing distro does everything you need?
[06:01] <NoUse> ubunewbie soryr, thats 'gconf-editor'
[06:01] <andersje> Jemt: also, FWIW, I haven't experienced that problem at all, and I've moved to Ubuntu from Mandriva
[06:01] <Jemt> andersje: Because Dapper is a lot better than Breezy (except for the bugs of cause). It got all the new software packages (MySQL 5, Java 5 etc.)
[06:01] <ubunewbie> nouse: opened gconf -> http_proxy.  should i uncheck "use_http_proxy"  ?
[06:02] <someothernick> dope, check release notes. scrool fr install info
[06:02] <a_l_e> Jemt: i was for more than two years with gentoo. it solves very nicely the problem of upgrading... no upgrade in two years and all the packages were uptodate! ... but it has other donwsides :-)

[06:02] <ubunewbie> nouse after i uncheck it, you mean

[06:02] <dope> someothernick: ok
[06:03] <NoUse> ubunewbie yes
[06:03] <Jemt> smev9_: Lucky you - but you might not be as lucky next time :)
[06:03] <Jemt> Besides, I'm not the only one. A very large post on the forum proves that :)
[06:03] <smev9_> @a_l_e has the online help not helped you?
[06:03] <a_l_e> smev9_: no :-(
[06:04] <ubunewbie> nouse: jackpot
[06:04] <smev9_> what have you done so far? @a_l_e
[06:04] <NoUse> ubunewbie good :-)
[06:04] <a_l_e> smev9_: i've pasted the error i get when trying to select sun-java5-jre. i don't see any j2re1 package around.
[06:04] <someothernick> a_l_e, http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/overview.html you could use that to install java and other apps or synaptic package manager
[06:04] <ubunewbie> nouse: and i imagine i uninstall anon_proxy again now?
[06:05] <dope> where would i put the i810_drv.so file?
[06:05] <NoUse> ubunewbie if you purged it,its uninstalled
[06:05] <ubunewbie> okay.
[06:05] <smev9_> i mean u cant find the package via synaptic?

[06:07] <ubunewbie> and now, back to work. . .
[06:07] <ubunewbie> thanks to all, including dooglus
[06:07] <dope> someothernick: thats not a correct path
[06:07] <a_l_e> smev9_: "apt-get install j2re1.4" -> ... "Package j2re1.4 is not available, but is referred to by another package." ... "E: Package j2re1.4 has no installation candidate"...
[06:08] <someothernick> dope, http://downloadmirror.intel.com/df-support/9871/ENG/RELNOTES_LINUX5.0.txt
[06:08] <someothernick> scrool down to installation
[06:08] <smev9_> i didnt know u used apt
[06:08] <dope> ok
[06:09] <a_l_e> smev9_: i know where is synaptic... i was using synaptic before... but it's easyer to paste the output from apt-get
[06:09] <someothernick> dope, your right
[06:09] <someothernick> umm
[06:10] <dope> lol
[06:10] <smev9_> yeah you are right.
[06:10] <amee2k> quick question: (6.06) the System/Administration/Services window does not look like the screen shot in the Getting Started guide (and only vaguely like the drawing on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServicesAdminRedesign ). (my screenshot: http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/1599/sshot0qh.png ) - Q: how can i get the full functionality?
[06:11] <a_l_e> and i also already have "deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main universe multiverse restricted"
[06:11] <a_l_e> ... do i need to add universe and multiverse to deb-src, too?
[06:12] <jrattner1> QUESTION: Anyone installed GNUsTicker here?
[06:12] <smev9_> cant be cause by multiple instances of repositories, i guess

[06:13] <dope> someothernick: i think i found it in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers
[06:13] <someothernick> :)

[06:15] <jrattner1> dope, cp -fr?
[06:15] <someothernick> Latino, no
[06:15] <SonOfAq> latino no because the live cd doesnt store anything
[06:15] <Latino> k, no wonder I couldn't figure out
[06:15] <amee2k> what else can i use, or is there only update-rc.d left?
[06:15] <Sivik> anyone here have the broadcom wireless cards, no matter what i do, i'm getting an invalied AP

[06:16] <freezey> sivik: and i said it could be because i got ssh ,mysql,apache2,and php servers running
[06:16] <Sivik> freezey, ok
[06:16] <Latino> or ubunti doesn't use unionfs?
[06:16] <freezey> sivik: u think so?
[06:16] <Sivik> freezey, thats very possible
[06:16] <smev9_> does anybody know what causes "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler  cannot create executables" in a build process

[06:16] <SonOfAq> latino hang on theres a standard driver if your not getting any graphics

[06:20] <andersje> say, how do I change my default command-line editor from nano back to vi?
[06:20] <munckfish> !pedantic :D
[06:20] <joycetick> when i run "sudo cardctl ident" it says "sudo:cardctl: command not found", would this be because im using xubuntu?
[06:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about pedantic :d
[06:21] <dooglus> andersje: how are you running your default editor?
[06:22] <NoUse> dooglus yeah gconf was setting it
[06:22] <dooglus> NoUse: some package switched it on in gconf and didn't switch it off when he uninstalled it?
[06:23] <NoUse> dooglus I guess, I don' tknow
[06:24] <andersje> dooglus: it's the one that cvs calls up from the command line
[06:25] <dooglus> andersje: cvs uses environment variables I guess.  what do you see if you run:  "env | grep -e EDITOR -e VISUAL" in a terminal?
[06:26] <mrkoje> Does anyone have some expertise in VMWare Server installs?
[06:26] <mrkoje> I'm having a problem building the vmmon module
[06:26] <SonOfAq> i know some about vmware
[06:26] <NoUse> !vmware
[06:26] <ubotu> VMWare player is in the Ubuntu repositories. Install instructions for VMWare server can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare
[06:26] <mrkoje> Unfortunently, the forums are of no help. I just got done looking throuhg 20pages of unrelated information
[06:27] <mrkoje> http://pastebin.com/721208
[06:27] <mrkoje> Thats my error
[06:27] <andersje> Dooglus: nothing.  I tried a grep for nano, as well.  but nothing
[06:27] <NoUse> mrkoje thats fine, but that link isn't the fourms, its the wiki
[06:27] <thefish> im getting mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /vms busy when trying to mount a disk after installing and booting a xen kernel, in dmesg i get a line device-mapper: dm-linear: Device lookup failed which could be related. i can mount the disk with -o,loop though... anyone have any ideas?
[06:28] <mrkoje> NoUse... I'm on it right now
[06:28] <mrkoje> NoUse.. that wiki entry is pretty useless anyway
[06:28] <SonOfAq> the fish wha type partition is that
[06:29] <SonOfAq> is it ext3
[06:29] <dooglus> andersje: can you arrange for the editor to run,and while it's running, do a "ps -Hfu1001" in a different window, and pastebin the results?
[06:29] <andersje> yeah, that's not a problem.  hold on.
[06:29] <dooglus> andersje: (where 1001 is your username or userid)
[06:29] <joycetick> my ubuntu cd doesent get past the "adding live CD user.." any ideas?
[06:29] <thefish> its ext3 if anyone wants to know :)
[06:30] <bobstro> mrkoje:  do you have the source in that directory?
[06:30] <mrkoje> ya
[06:30] <Latino> joycetick: did you tested your iso and CD?
[06:30] <dr3wster> hey, does anybody here know how to get sound in a virtual machine running in VMware server console?
[06:31] <dr3wster> nvm
[06:31] <mrkoje> but on line 20 "Makefile:536: /usr/src/linux/arch/i386Makefile: No such file or directory
[06:31] <andersje> aha.  It's symlinked from /usr/bin/sensible-editor!
[06:31] <andersje> really, what editor is more sensible than vi?
[06:31] <Spec> vim
[06:31] <Latino> lol
[06:31] <Spec> :)
[06:31] <mrkoje> bobstro, I see a /usr/src/linux/arch
[06:31] <mrkoje> bobstro,  but arch isn't a directory
[06:31] <dooglus> andersje: export EDITOR=vi and try again
[06:31] <joycetick> Latino: i downloaded it twice, once through bit torrent and also normally
[06:32] <NoUse> mrkoje have you installed the linux-headers package for your running kernel?
[06:32] <mrkoje> yes
[06:32] <dooglus> andersje: /usr/bin/sensible-editor shouldn't be a symlink - it's ascript, right?
[06:32] <andersje> dooglus:  thank you!  that saved me quite a bit of messing.  You're right, it is a shell script.  I'll update /etc/profile to export /usr/bin/vim as EDITOR
[06:32] <Latino> joycetick: when you boot, I'm pretty sure there's a option that says: Test CD or something like that
[06:32] <mrkoje> NoUse,  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.16.15.25-386
[06:32] <lib8264q> hello
[06:33] <bobstro> mrkoje:  i've got vmware player working, had to compile my modules. i *do* have a /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/Makefile.
[06:33] <genghis> hola.  can anyone tell me how to make the Dapper CD run in LiveCD mode even though I have a hard disk installed?  (The HD has a broken grub and won't currently mount)
[06:33] <thefish> andersje: you can also "update-alternatives --config editor"
[06:33] <mrkoje> really?
[06:33] <Sivik> genghis, you need to set your cdrom as the first boot device in BIOS
[06:33] <andersje> genghis: change boot order in BIOS
[06:33] <Latino> genghis: can you do a floppy grub?
[06:33] <dooglus> thefish: I don't think that would help in this case
[06:33] <Latino> lol
[06:33] <mrkoje> bobstro,  I'm in the /usr/src/linux directory right now and in bash the "arch" doesn't seem to be a directory
[06:33] <hackel> How can I check the integrity of an ubuntu CD I burned?  I try running casper-md5check /cdrom /cdrom/md5sum.txt but it does nothing.
[06:33] <genghis> andersje:  it boots from CD just fine, but starting Ubuntu *always* attempts to load the installation on the hard drisk
[06:34] <Latino> err, it's not floppy grub. is called....
[06:34] <Latino> Smart Boot Manager
[06:34] <joycetick> Latino: yeah i ran that a couple of days ago, i dont think it said anything but il run it again
[06:34] <NoUse> mrkoje thats not where linux-headers gets installed
[06:34] <mrkoje> bobstro, when I type arch is echos back i686
[06:34] <NoUse> mrkoje /usr/src/linux-headers-verion/
[06:34] <Sivik> genghis, what do you type when you load the live cd when it asks you to do something
[06:34] <genghis> Sivik:  that's my question
[06:34] <Sivik> genghis, it should tell you what to type get to the live cd
[06:34] <joycetick> Latino: hmm now its showing lots of lines of [xxxxxxx,xxxxxxx]  buffer i/o error on device hdc, logical block xxxxxx, before it was just freezing
[06:35] <cytrak> hey anyone here using pyramid linux ? ubuntu for embedded systems ?
[06:35] <genghis> Sivik:  it does not.
[06:35] <Sivik> genghis, do you normally just hit enter
[06:35] <Latino> joycetick: did you burn it in a CD-RW?
[06:35] <Latino> and did you burn it at 4x?
[06:35] <genghis> typing 'live' and it still stalls when trying to start ubuntu from the hard disk anyway
[06:35] <joycetick> Latino: no, and no, i think i burnt it at 24x
[06:36] <MegaManX> Hi all! I need a little help with Ubuntu Dapper and wine. I've installed wine through apt-get and I am having a hard time finding the .wineconfig file. I need to check if the path to my CD-rom is correct, because the program I'm trying to run apparently installs and runs fine, but can't find the Disk ^^
[06:36] <Latino> you should burn it at 4x, trust me. ;)
[06:36] <genghis> I want to boot the live install.  what boot params do I need to feed it so it doesn't try to be clever and start from hda1 anyway?
[06:36] <jonah1980> i have a problem running gmplayer, so i tried it from terminal and it get the following: http://pastebin.com/721216 can anyone help me out please?
[06:38] <darkyoshi372> What's the best way to get a video file on my computer to a DVD viewable in DVD players?
[06:38] <genghis> andersje:  disconnecting the hard disk gets the livecd booting, but I want to fix the hard disk so that's no good
[06:38] <Latino> joycetick: pretty much any ISO should be burn at 4x I know that for experience
[06:40] <darkyoshi372> What's a way to get a video file on my computer to a DVD viewable in DVD players?
[06:40] <Some_Person> I get an error on apt-get update starting today
[06:40] <DaveyJ> i just got a new harddrive that i'm going to be using for backing up... what do you think is the best FS to use for it?
[06:40] <genghis> darkyoshi372:  get avidemux
[06:40] <darkyoshi372> okay, thanks!
[06:40] <Some_Person> DaveyJ: prolly fat32
[06:40] <Latino> or dvdauthor
[06:40] <DaveyJ> thats what i was thinking
[06:40] <DaveyJ> but i wasnt sure
[06:41] <DaveyJ> fat32 works on all OSes right?
[06:41] <jonah1980> hi can anyone help me please, my mplayer won't work from dapper
[06:41] <Latino> yes
[06:41] <Some_Person> yep
[06:41] <jonah1980> http://pastebin.com/721216
[06:41] <genghis> darkyoshi372:  prolly then also need dvaauthor or k3b
[06:41] <genghis> dvdauthor, even
[06:41] <NoUse> jonah1980 try rm -rf ~/.mplayer and then run it
[06:41] <DaveyJ> alright i'll use fat32 :)
[06:42] <darkyoshi372> genghis, what's dvaauthor?
[06:42] <jonah1980> NoUse no that doesn't seem to do anything, i get same errors
[06:42] <joycetick> Latino: well, woulda been handy to know that before i went through 5 cds :P
[06:42] <lib8264q> hey can someone tell me  if i install ubuntu base whats the best way if any to get a kde desktop without all the additional crap it installs
[06:42] <genghis> darkyoshi372:  dvdauthor
[06:42] <Latino> just remember you can't have a file bigger than 4gb in fat32
[06:42] <MegaManX> get Kubuntu instead
[06:42] <Latino> joycetick: I know, I've been there
[06:42] <lib8264q> read again ...lol
[06:42] <darkyoshi372> okay, thanks genghis and Latino!
[06:42] <NoUse> jonah1980 dpkg -l | grep mplayer, paste that to paste.ubuntu-nl.org, pastebin.com is really slow right now
[06:42] <MegaManX> oops :)
[06:43] <krang> does anyone here know how to change group membership for NIS users? I can't seem to find any docs
[06:43] <Some_Person> who the heck has a 4gb file stored on an HD?
[06:43] <Latino> what ya mean with 'additional crap it installs'?
[06:43] <NoUse> Some_Person people with DVD isos
[06:43] <Latino> chgr?
[06:43] <Some_Person> just burn and delete
[06:43] <NoUse> Some_Person what if I don't want to delete it?
[06:44] <RTF> Is anyone having problem adding items with the Alacarte Menu editor?
[06:44] <Latino> or chown user:group
[06:44] <squiggly> The MPAA doesn't like that
[06:44] <Some_Person> if u burn ut first u have a copy
[06:44] <darkyoshi372> Well I don't like the MPAA, and nor do lots of people
[06:44] <NoUse> Some_Person and if something happens to that copy?
[06:44] <genghis> latino: any clues on forcing the livecd to run instead of the hard disk *after* booting to the livecd correctly?  boot params?
[06:44] <NoUse> Some_Person the point is Fat32 sucks :-)
[06:44] <Some_Person> store it in a closet
[06:44] <lib8264q> well ubuntu is perfect  bar  one progam  ... which i can get dont need any extras ... well aprat from btooth and ird ... just like the way the kde desktops handles but it piuts  in other stuff id never use
[06:45] <Some_Person> i like fat32 because wincrap and ubuntu can read it
[06:45] <NoUse> Some_Person the point is to have *2* copies of it
[06:45] <squiggly> fat32 is unreliable
[06:45] <NoUse> Some_Person windows can read ext3
[06:45] <mrkoje> Can someone please take a look at my pastebin. I'm stumped on this VMware Server issue when trying to compile the vmmon module
[06:45] <Some_Person> no
[06:45] <RTF> lib8264q try kubuntu
[06:45] <NoUse> !ext3
[06:45] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[06:45] <NoUse> Some_Person ^^^
[06:45] <mrkoje> http://pastebin.com/721208
[06:45] <Some_Person> oh
[06:45] <nicholaspaul> NoUse: incase you're interested, i found the answer to my r/w mount problem. - the drive was HFS+ and i had to mount it as hfsplus, not hfs.
[06:45] <gnomefreak> lib8264q: remove oine of the bars
[06:45] <NoUse> nicholaspaul ah, cool
[06:45] <gnomefreak> s/oine/one
[06:46] <nicholaspaul> NoUse yup! Spread the word ;)
[06:46] <jonah1980> NoUse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16095
[06:46] <krang> does anyone here know how to change group membership for NIS users? I can't seem to make it work
[06:47] <Some_Person> ext3 read/write on windows? whats next? i hope its ntfs read/write for ubuntu!
[06:47] <Goshawk> hi
[06:47] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: writing is not safe to ntfs
[06:47] <NoUse> Some_Person not likley, we open source our file systems, they don't
[06:47] <jonah1980> NoUse: gotta go out for ten mins but will be back if you come up with anything, thanks a lot
[06:47] <Some_Person> windows does it easy
[06:47] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: linux doesnt
[06:47] <Some_Person> couldn't someone port the .sys files that windows uses to linux?
[06:48] <Pxtl_> I seem to have borked Xorg.  How do I force it into console?
[06:48] <NoUse> Some_Person you want to?
[06:48] <NoUse> Some_Person "Can't someone" translates to "I'll do it" here :-)
[06:48] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: you feel free to enable write support but i will tell you now you are looking at screwing it up its very unsafe
[06:48] <Some_Person> i cant do it
[06:48] <Some_Person> i dont know how
[06:49] <NoUse> Some_Person just buy a C book and a hex editor
[06:49] <Some_Person> i don't know C/C++
[06:49] <void^> lawyers like reverse engineering
[06:49] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: im thinking you wont get an answer in here on it either
[06:49] <Some_Person> well i do have a problem u an answer
[06:49] <GaiaX11> Does any1 know if ubuntu shipit has already been released?
[06:49] <Some_Person> i get an error running "sudo apt-get update'
[06:49] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: they started shipping last i heard
[06:50] <xuser> Hi, what do i need to install to get xine work with Xv?
[06:50] <Ng> Some_Person: I believe someone has already hacked something up that uses the ntfs.sys, but it's not considered safe
[06:50] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: define error
[06:50] <GaiaX11> gnomefreak, last month?
[06:50] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: this month
[06:50] <Some_Person> i'll pastebin it

[06:52] <Some_Person> how long do they normally take?
[06:52] <sivik_> how do i go about activating a radio from an ACPI tree
[06:52] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: the site will tell you when it was sent to shipping co  sometime after that date they send

[06:53] <RadiantFire> I can't wait to pass out pretty stamped CD's
[06:53] <sivik_> what does it mean when i get a CDROMREADTOCHDR: input/output error
[06:53] <Some_Person> i ordered them on june 1st
[06:53] <GaiaX11> RadiantFire, me too
[06:53] <gnomefreak> afaik Some_Person your will be being shipped from ca
[06:53] <sivik_> RadiantFire: why do they have to be pretty stamped CD's
[06:53] <RadiantFire> sivik_: thats your CD rom is on the fritz
[06:53] <sivik_> why can y'all burn them yoursel
[06:53] <Some_Person> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16096 - my error
[06:53] <sivik_> RadiantFire: oh, thats great
[06:54] <compengi> does anyone know how to make ubuntu read/write on NTFS partition
[06:54] <RadiantFire> sivik_: because I can't make them look nice, and I have limits to the number of CD's lying around
[06:54] <RadiantFire> i ordered 10 Kubuntu and 10 ubuntu
[06:54] <andrisp> hi all, is it possible to somehow restore messed up /etc/rc2.d directory ? I was playing with services, and now I can't boot up my computer.
[06:54] <sivik_> RadiantFire, why do they have to be nice?
[06:54] <gnomefreak> compengi: no write support for ntfs
[06:54] <RadiantFire> sivik_: people are into the "professional" look, and this way I don't have to pay for 20 CD's :-)
[06:54] <sivik_> RadiantFire, who are you giving them to?
[06:54] <gnomefreak> !us
[06:54] <ubotu> I know nothing about us
[06:55] <gnomefreak> shoot
[06:55] <compengi> gnomefreak read?
[06:55] <RadiantFire> just people, leave me alone sivik_ it makes perfect sense to me!
[06:55] <sivik_> RadiantFire, right
[06:55] <gnomefreak> !ntfs > compengi
[06:55] <Some_Person> i get an error on apt-get update http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16096
[06:55] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: take the us. out of the repos
[06:55] <Some_Person> is it no good any more?
[06:55] <RadiantFire> i wonder why the us is having problems
[06:55] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: they have issues keeping the us repos open
[06:55] <Sivik> i haven't had any problems with the us repos
[06:56] <RadiantFire> me either... oh well
[06:56] <Sivik> Some_Person, have you tried upgrading to dapper?
[06:56] <Some_Person> try apt-get update and then tell me
[06:56] <Some_Person> no
[06:56] <Sivik> Some_Person, may i ask why not?
[06:56] <Some_Person> i'm waiting for shipit cds
[06:56] <someothernick> after mounting a windows partition is there a way to move files to linux partition?
[06:56] <FeeR^> hrm...vmware seems to now be borked since the kernel upgrade the other night
[06:56] <Sivik> Some_Person, whatever
[06:56] <RadiantFire> someothernick: yeah, just drag and drop from your file manager
[06:56] <Sivik> FeeR^, i have always had problems wtih vmware, i can't get it to create a new Virtual Machine
[06:57] <ic56> compengi: NTFS supposedly NTFS write with the latest FUSE drivers (in Dapper) works.  But most people find the proposition scary.  If you really want it, I can show you how, but I *don't* recommend it.
[06:57] <FeeR^> Sivik: it worked great until the updates that were pushed out the other night...
[06:57] <someothernick> RadiantFire, ty
[06:57] <Sivik> FeeR^, lucky
[06:57] <FeeR^> and i've even recompiled modules
[06:57] <dingus9> hey I my usb drive is auto mounting fine except It wont allow me to write to the disk. the mount shows rw so Im not sure what is going on. Help please
[06:57] <Some_Person> Sivik: u have no errors? try apt-get update
[06:57] <Sivik> dingus9, what is the partition type?
[06:58] <Sivik> i'm also not using the breezy repos
[06:58] <Some_Person> oh
[06:58] <Sivik> Some_Person, i upgraded to dapper, without the pretty cd
[06:58] <Sivik> Some_Person, its very simple
[06:58] <Some_Person> i have dialup
[06:58] <Some_Person> it takes too long to download
[06:58] <Sivik> Some_Person, oh, that explains it
[06:58] <dingus9> Sivik, fat32 vfat, its an usb drive on /dev/sda1 im running dapper
[06:58] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: take the us out of the repos and it will be fixed
[06:58] <bsdfox> can anyone give me some tips to open my firewall (via firestarter) so hamachi works? I've tried opening 137/138/139/445 (the samba ports and some ms thing) but it doesn't work, yet hamachi works when I turn the firewall off
[06:58] <Some_Person> ok
[06:58] <ic56> someothernick: drag and drop won't preserve permissions and timestamps.  Command line methods give you that option.
[06:58] <ardchoille> dingus9: you have write permissions on that?
[06:59] <Sivik> bsdfox, did you try opening the port 22 and 21
[06:59] <Sivik> dingus9, what kind of error are you getting
[06:59] <bsdfox> I will
[06:59] <someothernick> ic56, i c ty
[06:59] <MegaManX> Is there anyone using wine in Ubuntu here? :(
[06:59] <munckfish> why would alacarte not offer links to stuff like rapidsvn and xemacs even though the seem to include the relevant .desktop files in /usr/share/menu?
[06:59] <dooglus> MegaManX: I've used it
[06:59] <mrkoje> bsdfox, I would check out the hamachi linux forum because there is a certain port... like 12337 or 11337 or something like that
[07:00] <Sivik> MegaManX, what are you trying to run?
[07:00] <Amaranth> munckfish: they need to be in /usr/share/applications
[07:00] <Mugginns> american psycho on USA
[07:00] <dingus9> ardchoille, mount I do not have perms to write to this folder. however mount says its mounted for suid 1000, which is me, root cant write either
[07:00] <Some_Person> is there an alternative to the us server in another country i can use?
[07:00] <Amaranth> munckfish: /usr/share/menu is for the debian menu
[07:00] <Amaranth> Some_Person: Use straight archive.ubuntu.com
[07:01] <Some_Person> ok
[07:01] <Flippy209> anybody in here use cadega?
[07:01] <ardchoille> dingus9: if root can't write to it, then I would imagine it's not mounted rw
[07:01] <munckfish> Amaranth: hmm is this because these packages are shared across ubuntu and debian and the two distros have chosen alternate locations?
[07:01] <MegaManX> dooglus: thanks for the reply. I'm trying to run a language application by Rosetta stone to learn Korean. Program installs fine (disk1) but when I insert disk 2 (with the actual lessons) it can't find the mounted cdrom. I think I've to change the path to my cdrom on winecfg. Problem is, I can't find that file ^^
[07:01] <munckfish> Amaranth: I thought ubuntu was using the freedesktop standard?
[07:01] <MegaManX> Sivik: thanks for the reply as well.
[07:01] <Amaranth> munckfish: No, it's because Debian has their own menu system and ubuntu is using the freedesktop standard
[07:01] <Sivik> MegaManX, yw
[07:01] <munckfish> Amaranth: aha - ok I see
[07:01] <Amaranth> munckfish: installing either menu or menu-xdg will create a debian menu in your menus
[07:01] <munckfish> Amaranth: thx
[07:01] <dooglus> MegaManX: I've never tried installing from CD with it, sorry.
[07:01] <Amaranth> with all that stuff in it
[07:02] <dingus9> hmm strange.. how do you specify gnome-volume-manager mount options?
[07:02] <Some_Person> it works!
[07:02] <MegaManX> I mean, disk 1 is the installer. I can run the application just fine once installed. Through the application (Rosetta Stone language course), I've to have the Disk 2 on the drive, but the application keeps searching for a language course, and never finds the disk :(
[07:02] <bsdfox> it looks like port 20 and port 21 fixed it... now how would I specify to only allow traffic from 5.0.0.0 network?
[07:02] <Some_Person> thanks
[07:03] <bsdfox> 5.0.0.0/32?
[07:03] <MegaManX> dooglus: thanks anyway, I appreciated your input ^_^
[07:03] <Some_Person> now my ubuntu is (finally!) perfect
[07:03] <Sivik> bsdfox: put a password on it so only certain ppl can get in?
[07:03] <munckfish> !menu-xdg
[07:03] <bsdfox> Sivik, for the firewall...
[07:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about menu-xdg
[07:03] <Flippy209> anybody use wine and or cadega?
[07:04] <bsdfox> Flippy209, I have cedega setup
[07:04] <andersje> I use both
[07:04] <Flippy209> this is probably noob, but I'm installing wow through cadega and I need to edit the config.wtf file
[07:04] <andersje> I'm finding that for my games, cedega is no advantage
[07:04] <MegaManX> Flippy209: I am trying to configure wine right now, but I've used Cedega on the past ^_^
[07:04] <andersje> and in fact, wine runs stuff beter
[07:04] <andersje> or better, even
[07:04] <Goshawk> where can i get help about pbuilder ?
[07:04] <munckfish> Amaranth: so what do I do with menu-xdg now I've got it?
[07:04] <Flippy209> problem is that cadega is installing under a Program Files directory, and I can't seem to navigate into that from a term session to edit the file
[07:04] <Some_Person> now, how come my dang cdrom wont mount when i stick a disc inside
[07:05] <mikearthur> can anyone point me to a good guide for creating debs?
[07:05] <andersje> look in .cedega, flippy
[07:05] <bsdfox> Flippy209, it's in ~/.cedega
[07:05] <andersje> ~/.cedega that is
[07:05] <Flippy209> I did, and I see it
[07:05] <Some_Person> i have to go to terminal and mount it manually
[07:05] <Flippy209> I can't get into Program Files
[07:05] <aLPHa_LeaK> ubotu tell Goshawk about pbuilder
[07:05] <amarillion> Hello, I'm having big trouble with getting the grub menu back after reinstalling winXp.
[07:05] <bsdfox> permissions?
[07:05] <amarillion> I've tried: grub, root(hd0,1), setup(hd0)
[07:05] <ardchoille> munckfish: you installed menu-xdg ?
[07:05] <MegaManX> mikearthur: are you sure you need that? You can easily convert any .rpm to .deb using Alien in no time...
[07:05] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: yes, windows overwrites grub in the mbr
[07:05] <amarillion> But after that I couldn't boot anything anymore
[07:06] <munckfish> ardchoille: yep, just trying to see what I have to do with it
[07:06] <Goshawk> aLPHa_LeaK: yep i know pbuilder, but i'm crosscompiling with it
[07:06] <mikearthur> MegaManX: yeh, I'm doing some remotely complex dependency stuff
[07:06] <Some_Person> mikearthur: use alien
[07:06] <ardchoille> munckfish: sudo update-menus
[07:06] <munckfish> aha
[07:06] <munckfish> ardchoille: thx
[07:06] <mikearthur> the package isn't available as an rpm either
[07:06] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: is there another way to get grub back?
[07:06] <Flippy209> omg I think I did find it, thanks guys
[07:06] <munckfish> ardchoille: command doesn't exist
[07:06] <MegaManX> mikearthur: I see ^^. Check this link out: http://www.falkotimme.com/howtos/checkinstall/index.php
[07:06] <munckfish> ardchoille: do I need the 'menu' package as well I wonder
[07:06] <Etheri> ahh, it used to cause me no end of grief when windows overwrote the mbr, no longer, thank you trusty floppy disk :)
[07:06] <slvmchn> how do i get java runtime environment installed in firefox?
[07:07] <bsdfox> so can I specify the entire 5.x.x.x network like this: 5.0.0.0/32 ??
[07:07] <detimilnu2002> has anyone tried using a usb2 hd as there main drive with dapper?
[07:07] <slvmchn> it asks to install the plugin, but then says it can't find it
[07:07] <ardchoille> munckfish: I believe you do, I did
[07:07] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: can you boot into  ubuntu?
[07:07] <Some_Person> mikearthur: make a tar.gz (installable with "make install"), convert it to a .rpm, then convert it to a .deb
[07:07] <Pxtl_> So anyways, I've been playing more with getting my old Voodoo2 to work, and I've found a few things: 1) libglide3 is b0rked.   When I tried to use a 3dfx mesa lib that depends on libglide3, it complained that libglide3 contained a __LINE__ symbol.
[07:07] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: using live CD, yes.
[07:07] <Some_Person> how ome the ubuntu repos are out of date?
[07:08] <slvmchn> how do i get java runtime environment installed in firefox?
[07:08] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: use the command grub-install as root, i dont think you have to chroot into your hard disk...
[07:08] <Some_Person> i had a program i needed and had to get it from the debian repos
[07:08] <ardchoille> ubotu: tell slvmchn about java
[07:08] <Some_Person> the ubuntu ones had an old version
[07:08] <dingus9> ardchoille, I just umounted and remounted my drive mount -t vfat -o rw,defaults /dev/sda /media/drive1 with the same errors! cp /home/file1 /media/drive1 --- this is a read only file system
[07:08] <Some_Person> or is it just the breezy repos?
[07:09] <ledil> hello
[07:09] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: atm yes
[07:09] <ledil> "dpkg-reconfigure locales" is not working anymore, why ?
[07:09] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: what program?
[07:09] <Pxtl_> Is there a hotkey to shut down Xorg?
[07:09] <gnomefreak> ledil: are you on dapper?
[07:09] <ledil> yes
[07:09] <Some_Person> libusb
[07:10] <Pxtl_> Anybody konw how to shut down xorg when I've borked it?
[07:10] <gnomefreak> it should work fine try locale-gen
[07:10] <Some_Person> the breezy repos have an old version not compatable with hp3900 (not in repos)
[07:10] <MegaManX> slvmchn: Check this link to get Sun JRE up and running. Try to avoid the gcj replacement. I had nothing but problems with that ^^
[07:10] <MegaManX> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[07:10] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: its in dappers repos im pretty sure its in breezy's also
[07:10] <Some_Person> i got the latest version from the debian repos
[07:10] <gnomefreak> !ubuntuguide
[07:10] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is an inaccurate and outdated resource. Please use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[07:10] <ledil> gnomefreak: but I want the "configscreen"
[07:10] <dingus9> Pxtl_, ctrl alt f1 then killall gdm or xorg or kdm depending on your setup
[07:10] <ledil> this imissing
[07:11] <Some_Person> no
[07:11] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: mixing repos is bad
[07:11] <gnomefreak> ledil: on gnome?
[07:11] <Some_Person> i see an old version in there
[07:11] <andrisp> is there log file which keeps logs of booting proccess ?
[07:11] <Some_Person> i got the latest one from the debian repos
[07:11] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: mixing repos can give you major issues
[07:11] <gnomefreak> andrisp: /var/log/system iirc
[07:12] <ardchoille> Some_Person: not a good idea to use debian repos in Ubuntu
[07:12] <Some_Person> i didn't actually add the repos to sources.list
[07:12] <MegaManX> Does anyone here have a webcam working with aMSN?
[07:12] <Some_Person> i used the website
[07:12] <gnomefreak> MegaManX: amsn doesnt support cams on breezy or dapper afaik
[07:12] <Some_Person> and ur aMSN in ur repos is out of date
[07:12] <Some_Person> i got the latest one from the aMSN website
[07:12] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: not out of date
[07:13] <Some_Person> oh yes
[07:13] <dope> anyone have anyluck fixing 640x480 res with i810 driver?
[07:13] <Some_Person> 0.95 is the latest; 0.94 is in repos
[07:13] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: there is a time when they stop putting packages in distros for stability reasons
[07:13] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: its not out-of date your not running latest release
[07:13] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: you are out of date not the packages
[07:13] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: ok, I just did "sudo grub-install /dev/sda --root-dir=/dev/sda2". Didn't get an error.
[07:13] <Some_Person> so do the dapper repos have 0.95?
[07:14] <amarillion> Rebooting, cross my fingers...
[07:14] <andrisp> gnomefreak:  there is no system file
[07:14] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: *crosses fingers* ;)
[07:14] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: .95.1
[07:14] <Tomcat_> slvmchn: Install sun-java5-plugin and sun-java5-jre
[07:14] <munckfish> ardchoille: do I have to run update-menus every time I install a debian package?
[07:14] <MegaManX> hmmmmm... strange. There is a button under aMSN preferences to configure my webcam. However, it gives me an error saying that "could not open device". My cam works fine with camstream. Is there any other messenger with Webcam support? Skype for Linux is a no no yet :S
[07:14] <Some_Person> and what libusb version?
[07:14] <gnomefreak> andrisp: its /var/log i could swear its system let me check
[07:15] <ardchoille> munckfish: not sure, but it won't hurt anything if you do
[07:15] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: go to packages.ubuntu.com
[07:15] <andrisp> i found something like syslog
[07:15] <gnomefreak> andrisp: that would be it
[07:15] <andrisp> will look in it
[07:15] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: good news and bad news: I got the grub menu back, I can boot windows again. I still can't boot linux however :(
[07:15] <Some_Person> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/source/Sources.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[07:15] <Pxtl_> dingus: thanks.
[07:15] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> whats going on , miscrosoft is doing bot attack on the channel ?
[07:15] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: hmm...
[07:15] <Some_Person> still an error with that server
[07:15] <Flippy209> ok so I go to places, computer and I see my old slave NTFS drive but I can't access it what do I type to see if it's mounted anywhere?
[07:15] <ardchoille> munckfish: you can always go into alacarte and fix your menus the way you want them
[07:16] <Sivik> Flippy209, do you have the ntfs read stuff installed for linux?
[07:16] <Flippy209> Sivik, yeah I found a site last night and followed the directions but it never did work properly.
[07:16] <munckfish> ardchoille: sure, just wondered if I would have to do that to get the links to turn up in alacarte each time I install
[07:16] <Sivik> Flippy209, did you try to install the stuff via apt-get?
[07:16] <sethk> Flippy209, mount (no arguments) will tell you what is currently mounted, at the command line
[07:17] <nich0s> Hey alls
[07:17] <Flippy209> what would a NTFS drive show up as?
[07:17] <nich0s> ntfs :)
[07:17] <Flippy209> lol :)
[07:17] <Some_Person> now what do i do about my apt-get update problem?
[07:17] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: I get this error: "root (hd0,2) Filesystem unknown" and then "Error 17: cannot mount selected partition"
[07:17] <Sivik> how do i enable a broadcom 43xx radio in the ACPI tree?
[07:17] <nich0s> flippy209, there is a package called ntfs-progs
[07:18] <Flippy209> don't see it in there, I"ll try apt-get ntfs-progs
[07:18] <Flippy209> is that the right command?
[07:18] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: is linux on hd0,2?
[07:18] <ic56> Flippy209: point your browser to http://ca.geocities.com/ic56@rogers.com/65/diskmounter-latest.txt Page down to "Instructions", and read till the next blank line.  Follow the instructions to save and run the file.  It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer.
[07:18] <aLPHa_LeaK> ie hda3?
[07:18] <rittyan> Hi guys... does someone use wacom here? :| I have pb... It works but doesnt cover whole screen, and also I can't see it in "extended devices" in gimp or inkscape... :|
[07:18] <ardchoille> Some_Person: which server is giving the problem?
[07:18] <ic56> Flippy209: The script will ask you if you want to enable NTFS write.  Answer no.  If you already tried unsuccessfully to add your Windows filesystems to /etc/fstab , add a -b flag to the script invocation.  I authored this version, so I can help if anything goes wrong.
[07:18] <Some_Person> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/source/Sources.gz
[07:18] <Flippy209> great thanks ic56
[07:18] <Some_Person> thats the file it needs
[07:18] <ic56> Flippy209: yw.
[07:18] <nich0s> flippy209, Listen to ic56... I am n00b and have beenpwned
[07:18] <nich0s> :)
[07:19] <Flippy209> haha
[07:19] <nich0s> QUICK! ubuntu 6.06 = dapper, yes?
[07:19] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: it's on /dev/sda2, so that should be (hd0,1), right?
[07:19] <gi2k15> Can anyone help me plz? I'm trying to install WoW through ISO images. I mounted the first and then run the installer. Everything went fine. But when it asks for the other CD, I umount, mount the 2nd image at the same place, but the installer keeps asking for CD 2. Any ideas?
[07:19] <nich0s> I'm on a sat connection and I can't afford to download the wrong os.
[07:19] <ardchoille> Some_Person: hmm.. not sure. wait a bit and try again, there may be some maintainence going on or something
[07:19] <aLPHa_LeaK> uh...iirc yes.
[07:19] <Some_Person> it works fine with every other package
[07:19] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: just try it out ;)
[07:20] <ic56> nichOs: yes
[07:20] <Flippy209> wow I really have to use some new desktops..  too much stuff running EEK!
[07:20] <dr_willis> gi2k15,  copy all the files from the cd's to a dir. then use it to install from - is the best way
[07:20] <Khamael> when I try to play streams from the net, I get sound and a black box saying "no picture", but no video. how do I fix it?
[07:20] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: yes, but how do I tell it to use that partition?
[07:20] <ic56> nichOs: :-)
[07:20] <nich0s> ic56, can I get your e-mail to pester you with questions later? :)
[07:20] <Some_Person> !mms
[07:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about mms
[07:21] <nich0s> heh, j/k
[07:21] <gi2k15> dr_willis: ok, I'll try yhat
[07:21] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst or try "update-grub", that does it usually
[07:21] <dr_willis> gi2k15,  you are usintg cedega?
[07:21] <gi2k15> dr_willis: no, just wine
[07:21] <Some_Person> could i download the Sources.gz file in firefox and put it in the right place?
[07:21] <dr_willis> gi2k15,  i dont think the normal wine can run WoW
[07:21] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: after booting the live CD again, right?
[07:21] <xuser> anyone have sound with gxine?
[07:22] <dr_willis> !firefox
[07:22] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[07:22] <aLPHa_LeaK> amarillion: yes
[07:22] <Some_Person> i know all about firefox
[07:22] <Some_Person> but could i do that?
[07:22] <dr_willis> i do belive thers some repos that have the daily builds of firefox
[07:22] <gi2k15> dr_willis: according to what I read, yes. http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=4031
[07:22] <Some_Person> and where would the file go/
[07:22] <mwe> Some_Person: if you know all about firefox tell me why version 1.5.0.3 kept crashing for me :)
[07:23] <dr_willis> Some_Person,  this is linux anything is doable.. if ya want to work at it.
[07:23] <kbrosnan> http://ftp.mozilla.org for one
[07:23] <dr_willis> gi2k15,  considering how badly it ran under Cedega.. all i can say is GOOD LUCK.
[07:23] <DPEX> hi everyone
[07:23] <Random_Transit> hey...I'm having an odd problem with my sound
[07:23] <aLPHa_LeaK> bbl
[07:23] <Some_Person> well, where would i extract the Sources.gz to?
[07:23] <squiggly> !sound
[07:23] <Flippy209> ic56, can i just run this as the text file?
[07:23] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:23] <gi2k15> dr_willis: hehe, thx
[07:23] <ic56> Flippy209: yes
[07:24] <squiggly> are you using ALSA, random_transit?
[07:24] <rixxon> is there any conviniant way to encrypt files
[07:24] <Random_Transit> GAIM, my flash plugin, and all the rest of my sound apps seem to be fighting over who gets to use the soundserver
[07:24] <dr_willis> gi2k15,  its a major annoyance.. every time wow had a update.. cedega needed a update as well.. it never ends it seems.
[07:24] <ardchoille> rixxon: I use bcrypt and ccrypt to encrypt/decrypt files
[07:25] <Random_Transit> yeah, I am using ALSA
[07:25] <bulltitan> hi
[07:25] <ardchoille> bulltitan: hi
[07:25] <Laney> How would I go about doing creating /home/*/.Spam ? I tried mkdir /home/*/.Spam but without success...
[07:25] <rixxon> ardchoille: i'd like something that has both cli and gui (nautilus) support
[07:25] <Random_Transit> so, any idea what the problem could be?
[07:25] <dr_willis> Laney,  the use of * in that makes little sence
[07:25] <gi2k15> dr_willis: some people say wine support for wow is much better than cedega's. that's what i'm trying to test
[07:25] <dr_willis> Laney,  you want to make a .Spam dir for EVERy user?
[07:25] <bulltitan> is there a way to know if my request for ubuntu cds have been accepted in shipit?
[07:25] <Laney> Yeah
[07:25] <ardchoille> rixxon: Seahorse
[07:25] <rixxon> ardchoille: like, when running an encrypted file from nautilus it asks for key...
[07:26] <rixxon> ardchoille: ill check it out, thank you
[07:26] <ardchoille> yw
[07:26] <dr_willis> Laney,  well you will have permission issues.. ya proberly need to use find/xargs or similer tools
[07:26] <munckfish> is there any way to get an nicer font in xemacs?
[07:26] <munckfish> options > fonts doesn't seem to be offering me anything pleasant
[07:26] <FeeR^> well i got vmware-player to work finally
[07:27] <Some_Person> ok, i'm downloading that bloody Sources.gz
[07:27] <FeeR^> but it'd be WONDERFUL if i could get fancontrol to work
[07:27] <Some_Person> now, where do i extract it to?
[07:28] <Flippy209> ic56, have time for a PM?
[07:28] <ic56> Flippy209: yes
[07:28] <mcpowley> hey guys, I need some networking help. I have a cat 5 cable that is wired through my house...unfortunately the length isnt long enough in one of the rooms, is there something I can do to extend it...like an extension adapter of some sort? or am I stuck
[07:29] <dr_willis> mcpowley,  they got cat5 'connectors' that let ya link 2 together
[07:29] <FeeR^> mcpowley, yes, you can get a small extender , basically two female connectors , so you can join two together
[07:29] <dr_willis> some places over charge for them. :P
[07:29] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: woohoo, it's booting now. I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst directly. Though I'm wondering. why couldn't it detect the proper settings by itself?
[07:29] <bulltitan> dumb question :P my order has been accepted :P
[07:29] <amarillion> A bug perhaps?
[07:29] <Khamael> I have uninstalled every firefox video plugin on my system, still it shows the same: a black box with "no picture" and sound
[07:30] <jonah1980> NoUse, hey how's it going? what did you make of the pastebin thing?
[07:30] <mcpowley> great, thanks guys, lifesavers you are
[07:30] <MegaManX> Ok, I've fixed the Wine problem. Just open a terminal, type winecfg. It will pop-up a very nice configuration screen. Under drivers tab, I added the path to my cdrom as D:\ and the program is running perfectly. Wine is doing such a good job lately. I wonder how games run in Wine now ^_^
[07:30] <Some_Person> ok, i have the bad Sources.gz on my desktop; there is 1 file in there; where does it go?
[07:31] <NoUse> jonah1980 I don't know are you running 'gmplayer somefile.avi'
[07:31] <sehute> Hi, I have a strange question. fdisk -l says that my usb-drive is W95 FAT32 (LBA), while mount says it's ext3
[07:31] <bulltitan> see u later bye
[07:31] <void^> sehute: there's no relation between partition type and actual filesystem
[07:32] <axisys> how do I upgrade to the latest kernel?
[07:32] <Some_Person> where does apt-get update extract the Sources.gzs to?
[07:32] <NoUse> Some_Person have you tried changing references to us. repos? those have been having problems as far as I know
[07:32] <sehute> void^: really? I didn't know that. Thanks
[07:32] <Sivik> ok, this is a stupid question but i put a cd in the rom drive, how do i know its moutning
[07:33] <Frogzoo> sehute: fdisk reads the partition table, whereas mount reports the actual fs on the partition - you can set the partition type using fdisk (83 for ext3 iirc)
[07:33] <mwe> axisys: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will install the latest version in the repos
[07:33] <axisys> mwe: is the 2.6.17 in the repo?
[07:33] <Sivik> axisys: no
[07:33] <mwe> axisys: no and it wont be
[07:33] <sehute> Frogzoo: So, my sda1 (ext3) is part of my sda (fat32)? :)
[07:34] <dr_willis> sda is the whole drive.
[07:34] <mcpowley> dr_willis, would this be okay? http://tinyurl.com/edwuo
[07:34] <Some_Person> oh my god, the file inside Sources.gz was last modified on December 31, 1969 at 6:00 PM!
[07:34] <mwe> axisys: packages are version frozen except for bugfixes
[07:34] <dr_willis> sda1 is the parttion of the drive
[07:34] <sangorrin> Sivik, with mount
[07:34] <axisys> mwe: in other words i should not upgrade to 2.6.17 ?
[07:34] <Sivik> sangorrin, ok, i understand that, but how do i know which device it is
[07:34] <mwe> axisys: not unless you need it for a good reason I think
[07:34] <Sivik> axisys: unless you need it for some reason
[07:34] <NoUse> Some_Person doubt it, thats probably the default date
[07:34] <mwe> axisys: you'll have to do it manually
[07:34] <axisys> mwe: wireless
[07:34] <ardchoille> Some_Person: that's a default timestamp
[07:34] <Some_Person> oh
[07:35] <mwe> axisys: wireless works fine in 2.6.16
[07:35] <Some_Person> so where do i put that file?
[07:35] <Sivik> axisys: the braodcom stuff already works in the 2.6.15
[07:35] <sangorrin> with mount
[07:35] <sangorrin> put 'mount' in the command line
[07:35] <axisys> Sivik, mwe ok, thnx guys
[07:35] <sangorrin> it shows you the list of mounted devices
[07:35] <NoUse> Some_Person have you tried changing references in /etc/apt/sources.list to us.arhive to something else?
[07:35] <Sivik> sangorrin, already did
[07:35] <Some_Person> yes
[07:35] <ardchoille> Some_Person: does your sources.list have "us." in front of some repos?
[07:35] <Sivik> sangorrin, its not mounted currently
[07:35] <Some_Person> it did
[07:35] <mwe> axisys: I don't think it sounds a kernel update is the answer to your problems
[07:36] <Some_Person> i tried removing the us., but no change
[07:36] <bja1234> hi
[07:36] <ardchoille> Some_Person: you changed them?
[07:36] <NoUse> Some_Person go to the terminal and run 'env | grep -i proxy'
[07:36] <Some_Person> same error with and without
[07:36] <sangorrin> do you want to mount it?
[07:36] <Sivik> sangorrin, yes
[07:36] <dr_willis> mcpowley,  notice the $10 price tag.. ive gotten them for $1 each at places.
[07:36] <ardchoille> Some_Person: oh, ok
[07:36] <bja1234> can someone help me, question about installation?
[07:36] <NoUse> !helpme
[07:36] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:36] <Sivik> bja1234, just ask the question
[07:36] <sehute> thanks for the help, see you guys
[07:36] <bja1234> cheers
[07:37] <sangorrin> put "cat /etc/fstab"
[07:37] <rguy> i'm hungry
[07:37] <sangorrin> maybe you have your device there
[07:37] <powerbook99> ok hi all
[07:37] <powerbook99> i need someone out there to work a little magic with my dvd
[07:37] <Sivik> powerbook99, what are you trying to do?
[07:37] <Some_Person> if u want i can pastebin the error
[07:37] <powerbook99> play dvd's
[07:38] <Sivik> powerbook99, use xine
[07:38] <powerbook99> got libdvdcss2 installed
[07:38] <NoUse> Some_Person did you run the 'env...' command?
[07:38] <bja1234> I have a laptop with win xp on it, I've downloaded the ubuntu iso, unpacked the iso, written the files to a cd, but doesnt load when I restart computer. Im not sure if the cd is bootable? Is there any way of installing ubuntu from where I am now??
[07:38] <ardchoille> Some_Person: that might help
[07:38] <Some_Person> ok
[07:38] <powerbook99> xine is installed
[07:38] <dr_willis> bja1234,  look on the cd.. what Files do you see on the cd?  how did you burn the cd
[07:38] <sangorrin> Sivik look in /etc/fstab
[07:38] <jrib> bja1234: don't unpack the iso, burn the iso image to a cd
[07:38] <gavagai> bja1234, you have to burn the cd as an image, not copy the files to the cd
[07:38] <sangorrin> probably it's the /dev/hdc device
[07:39] <dr_willis> and whjat does UNPACK the cd even mean?
[07:39] <powerbook99> so whats the plan
[07:39] <gavagai> you don't "unpack" the iso
[07:39] <powerbook99> i get a xine engine error
[07:39] <bja1234> oops, I've used the only cdr I have! I donloaded a prog to get all the files out of the iso, so that I could use windows built in cd writing thing
[07:39] <dr_willis> i got 3 lines in tht file, my router ip, then 2 lines each with the isp's dns servers
[07:39] <Some_Person> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16099
[07:40] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: I understand now why it was messed up: /etc/fstab was all wrong too. So apparently reinstalling windows also changed the order of my partitions, thereby making the partititon numbers in the old menu.lst wrong
[07:40] <ardchoille> an iso is a finalised file system, doesn't need to be unpacked, it needs to be burned to media
[07:40] <amarillion> aLPHa_LeaK: anyway, thanks a lot
[07:40] <MegaManX> Ubuntu rocks...
[07:40] <dr_willis> bja1234,  you messed up.. use a tool like 'burn at once'  its free
[07:40] <ardchoille> MegaManX: indeed :)
[07:40] <NoUse> Some_Person please run that 'env | grep -i proxy'
[07:40] <Some_Person> i did
[07:40] <Some_Person> no output
[07:40] <bja1234> so I need another cdr! Is there no way of getting the job done without one?
[07:40] <Sivik> sangorrin: i got it
[07:40] <buggzero> anybody know what a demuxer is ? I can't get quicktime videos to play
[07:40] <dr_willis> bja1234,  time to go to the store looks like.
[07:41] <axisys> buggzero: u can request free cd as an alternative
[07:41] <MegaManX> ardchoille: I've been using Linux since Redhat 6.x. I think I've finally found a distribution to settle down with ^^
[07:41] <NoUse> Some_Person this looks like a network issue on your end to me
[07:41] <powerbook99> says there is no plugin able to handle dvd://media/cdrom0
[07:41] <gnomefreak> !quicktime > buggzero
[07:41] <dr_willis> bja1234,  you should scandisk/defrag the hd befor starting the install also.. and backup imporntant stuff
[07:41] <jrib> ubotu: tell buggzero about quicktime
[07:41] <Some_Person> crap
[07:41] <axisys> buggzero: ignore
[07:41] <Some_Person> so wtf do i do?
[07:41] <ardchoille> bja1234: you can mount an iso and copy files from it
[07:41] <axisys> bja1234: u can request free cd as an alternative
[07:41] <NoUse> Some_Person does synaptic work?
[07:41] <ardchoille> MegaManX: Me too, I love this distro
[07:42] <Some_Person> yeah
[07:42] <powerbook99> ok dvd issue anyone here can help me out
[07:42] <jrib> powerbook99: what issue exactly?
[07:42] <Some_Person> with a little error at the start (no file for that repo)
[07:42] <axisys> powerbook99: ask away
[07:42] <NoUse> Some_Person please pastebin /ec/apt/apt.conf
[07:42] <Some_Person> prolly /etc
[07:42] <powerbook99> well keep getting an error about xine not being able to handle the mount point
[07:42] <buggzero> jrib: ive allready followed that guide and installed the packages
[07:42] <NoUse> Some_Person  but can you run "reload" in synaptic without errors?
[07:43] <Some_Person> reload?
[07:43] <ardchoille> powerbook99: problem with xine reading a dvd?
[07:43] <jrib> buggzero: what palyer are you using?
[07:43] <powerbook99> yes
[07:43] <buggzero> 4ive tried both gxine and VLC
[07:43] <bja1234> arch: I've got all the files out of the iso, sitting on my second partition of my hd,
[07:43] <powerbook99> tried em all
[07:43] <ardchoille> powerbook99: I've had that prob lots of times. I solved it by using MPlayer
[07:43] <Some_Person> i didn't know synaptic had a reload
[07:43] <buggzero> jrib: using both the plug in and standalone
[07:43] <gavagai> bja1234, it is possible to install it in other ways but it will be much harder.  can't you just go to the store?
[07:43] <NoUse> Some_Person its like apt-get update
[07:43] <Some_Person> i got errors
[07:43] <powerbook99> ok this is like the 6th software install
[07:44] <NoUse> Some_Person same errors?
[07:44] <jrib> buggzero: you installed w32codecs?
[07:44] <bja1234> gav: shop is shut where I live, UK. was hoping to get it running tonight
[07:44] <Sivik> powerbook99, will it just not read the dvd?
[07:44] <axisys> powerbook99: do u see the dvd mounted?
[07:44] <Some_Person> more errors
[07:44] <ardchoille> powerbook99: I've never had a prob with MPlayer, you might like it better
[07:44] <powerbook99> dvd is mounted
[07:44] <Some_Person> whats wrong with this? it worked yesterday1
[07:44] <eightiesk> hello I just installed dapper and it gets to the point where x server should load and freezes anyone know why?
[07:44] <buggzero> yeah theres a link to another repository in that wiki page
[07:44] <gavagai> bja1234, i don't think it's going to happen.  you can install debian from a floppy but not ubuntu afaik.
[07:44] <Sivik> eightiesk, cause your xorg.conf isn't set correctly
[07:45] <axisys> powerbook99: run nautilus and see if you can access the dvd
[07:45] <bja1234> gav: ok cheers
[07:45] <Some_Person> by doing reload in synaptic some of them fail
[07:45] <powerbook99> yea its visible and can navigate through the dir's
[07:45] <eightiesk> Sivik: the bar gets full and it freezes
[07:45] <buggzero> jrib: yes i did
[07:45] <NoUse> Some_Person can you pastebin /etc/apt/apt.conf ?
[07:45] <ardchoille> axisys: there are times when a reboot is the only way to fix that xine problem
[07:45] <Sivik> eigthiesk: then i hvae not clue
[07:45] <MegaManX> eightiesk: I think it is because of your graphics card. Try to boot into save graphics mode or something like that. I've the same issue as you with Geforce 6600GT. GFX 5200 and MX440 works fine though.
[07:45] <bja1234> off to knock on neihbours house to see if I can find a cdr!
[07:45] <bja1234> bye all
[07:46] <Some_Person> NoUse: it doesn't exist
[07:46] <jrib> buggzero: as well as libxine-extracodecs?
[07:46] <axisys> powerbook99: try another dvd
[07:47] <powerbook99> ok
[07:47] <NoUse> Some_Person ok, try replacing all http:// in sources.list to ftp://
[07:47] <ardchoille> Some_Person: that's not good
[07:47] <eightiesk> the thing is I had breezy for ever
[07:47] <Some_Person> ok
[07:47] <eightiesk> brb
[07:47] <buggzero> jrib: yes thats installed as well
[07:48] <Some_Person> NoUse: even the unofficial? repos?
[07:48] <jrib> buggzero: where is this quicktime file from?
[07:48] <xuser> Anyone know how install the codecs on mplayer?
[07:48] <NoUse> Some_Person if you mean universe and mulitiverse, use
[07:48] <NoUse> yes*
[07:48] <powerbook99> cannot close mplayer
[07:48] <jrib> ubotu: tell xuser about w32codecs
[07:48] <gnomefreak> !codecs > xuser
[07:48] <Some_Person> NoUse: I mean PLF and BACKPORTS
[07:48] <dr_willis> xuser,  i normally get the latest ones from the mplayer homepage and use their docs
[07:48] <NoUse> Some_Person leave those for now
[07:48] <buggzero> jrib:  http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=23646
[07:48] <Some_Person> ok
[07:49] <Rambo3> powerbook99: ps -aux and kill it
[07:49] <axisys> powerbook99: well pkill -9 mplayer
[07:49] <koolatron> I'm having a problem with xine - I can't get it to play FLAC files.  I've got xine-extracodecs installed
[07:49] <dereks> is there a way to disable the ctrl-z on the terminal?
[07:49] <powerbook99> good
[07:49] <axisys> dereks: bg
[07:49] <MegaManX> xuser: if you've compiled mplayer from source without first placing the codecs in a proper place, you will have to compile it again, or else the codecs won't work, as far as I know.
[07:49] <axisys> dereks: or fg
[07:49] <koolatron> and xine-config reports that it found "an unknown plugin: xineplug_flac.so"
[07:49] <gnomefreak> NoUse: you have a /etc/apt/apt.conf  file?
[07:50] <xuser> dr_willis: i downloaded the essential pack, how did you install them?
[07:50] <buggzero> jrib- this is the error i get No demuxer found - stream format not recognised.
[07:50] <axisys> dereks: nm.. i misunderstood your question
[07:50] <gnomefreak> or did you mean /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[07:50] <NoUse> gnomefreak yeah but dpkg doesn't say it belongs to any package, so I'm guessing it gets generated if needed
[07:50] <gnomefreak> NoUse: ah ok
[07:50] <Some_Person> ok, i'm running apt-get update
[07:50] <dereks> axisys: heh
[07:50] <dereks> i want to unbind a key
[07:50] <buggzero> ubotu: tell adamina|afk about away
[07:50] <xuser> MegaManX: i apt-get, dunno where to place the essentials pack in mplayer, in gxine is /usr/lib/codecs, don't where mplayer looks for.
[07:51] <MegaManX> Anyone using zsnes emulator in ubuntu? Everytime I try to change the video mode, it freezes and I've to kill it ^^
[07:51] <axisys> u can probably do it using konsole.. not sure if gnome-terminal has that feature
[07:51] <dr_willis> xuser,   chedk the docs on the page. :P sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb is the normal way
[07:51] <Some_Person> i got an error on the BACKPORTS repo, maybe i can change it to ftp
[07:51] <Cntryboy>  How do I get glxgears to show fps. In the window it just shows gears and in terminal it shows nothing.
[07:51] <buggzero> megamanx - use snes9x
[07:51] <martii> hello
[07:51] <dr_willis> !glsgears
[07:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about glsgears
[07:51] <axisys> dereks: u can probably do it using konsole.. not sure if gnome-terminal has that feature
[07:51] <powerbook99> imhaving the same stream issues
[07:51] <dr_willis> !glxgears
[07:51] <ubotu> To display the FPS in glxgears, run 'glxgears -printfps' in a terminal.
[07:51] <Some_Person> no
[07:51] <martii> it looks that I have a problem with shutting down my ubuntu
[07:51] <powerbook99> i want to know where the codecs go
[07:51] <martii> it freezes
[07:51] <dereks> axisys: i am in putty now :) so it needs to be a general solution
[07:51] <xuser> dr_willis: in what dir does mplayer looks for the codecs?
[07:51] <Some_Person> its still running
[07:52] <martii> and BTW firefox corrrupts its profile
[07:52] <Cntryboy> ty
[07:52] <gnomefreak> martii: no it doesnt
[07:52] <dr_willis> xuser,  no clue.. never really paied attention to it. there are video files that ive never found a linux player could play.
[07:52] <martii> gnomefreak: what it doesn't?
[07:52] <bingogu> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".                    what's wrong with my system
[07:52] <Serious-Sven> evening, can anyone help me with xlib6g? can't install it, it's needed for Opera and I allready enabled the multi- and universe repositories.
[07:52] <gnomefreak> martii: you said ff corrupts its profile  it doesnt yours might do that but ff doesnt do it
[07:53] <NoUse> !opera
[07:53] <ubotu> An advanced and free (only as in price) Web browser. Howto at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser Latest Ubuntu packages always at: http://opera.com/download
[07:53] <axisys> powerbook99: if it is related to mplayer u might ask it in #mplayer chnl
[07:53] <Serious-Sven> no xlib6g is another package that I cannot install...
[07:53] <MegaManX> xuser: if you go to mplayer FAQ/install guide, you will find the correct place to uncompress the codecs. I doubt many will remember the path without first looking it up ^^
[07:53] <martii> gnomefreak: FF does it in this case
[07:53] <kingmonkey> what is up with the openoffice.org-gnome/gtk package?
[07:53] <powerbook99> no its just all dvd players in general just dont work
[07:53] <powerbook99> can anyone walk me through the codecs install
[07:53] <gnomefreak> martii: are you sure its ff not a theme or extention?
[07:53] <bingogu> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".        how do i fix this
[07:54] <Some_Person> NoUse: lol, got a "Bizarre Error"
[07:54] <martii> gnomefreak: not sure of course
[07:54] <MegaManX> powerbook99: Look here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[07:54] <Serious-Sven> NoUse: I used the wiki, I'm experienced enough to know I have to search but I can't install xlib6g
[07:54] <martii> gnomefreak: I have no teams
[07:54] <axisys> powerbook99: all codecs should be in /usr/local/lib/codes dir
[07:54] <Xoritor> ok how can i get a test user to access the X display :0   --  i have already done the "xhost + LOCAL:" bit and there is no iptables rule blocking localhost
[07:54] <martii> gnomefreak: and no more that 2-3 extensions
[07:54] <NoUse> Some_Person pastebin, I gotta run in a couple minutes
[07:54] <Some_Person> ok
[07:54] <axisys> powerbook99: go to wiki.ubuntu.com and search for mplayer for example
[07:54] <Xoritor> so normally i would "su - test" after doing the "xhost + LOCAL:"
[07:55] <gnomefreak> martii: so far you are the first one i have seen in a year say that so im doubting its ff
[07:55] <oskude> fyi: i once wanted to install "w32codecs" and their mentioed a new diroctory, but only then old directory worked...
[07:55] <gnomefreak> martii: i would try to clean up the profile file and see if removing them fixes it
[07:55] <Some_Person> NoUse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16100
[07:56] <Serious-Sven> powerbook99: I'm not sure but I think you need to recompile mplayer to use new codecs you place in the folders.
[07:56] <martii> gnomefreak: I have copy of my profile
[07:56] <jrib> buggzero: I'm sure libxine-extracodecs is supposed to let you watch quicktime.  I'm not sure though if there are any version limitations (like latest quicktime format can't be played or something).  Have you tried different .mov's possibly a little older?
[07:56] <powerbook99> ok no mplayer
[07:56] <martii> gnomefreak: but it does not happen when I close it manually
[07:56] <NoUse> Some_Person its still pointing to http
[07:56] <powerbook99> i want kaffine or totem vlc even
[07:56] <Chri[s] > sigh
[07:56] <Serious-Sven> powerbook99 do you use breezy or dapper?
[07:56] <Chri[s] > gdm = broke
[07:56] <NoUse> Some_Person get rid of all reference to http
[07:56] <powerbook99> dapper
[07:56] <martii> gnomefreak: only when I shut down with FF still onep
[07:56] <martii> open
[07:56] <Chri[s] > or startup scripts = broke
[07:56] <Khamael> it seems like the mplayer-mozilla plugin works for audio streams. how do I get it to work with video?
[07:56] <Serious-Sven> Khamael: how did you install mplayer?
[07:57] <Some_Person> NoUse: ok, but thats the backports repo, its unofficial, does it have an ftp?
[07:57] <Serious-Sven> Khamael: did you use the CVS?
[07:57] <martii> gnomefreak: that should close FF the same way I would (with -15 singal)
[07:57] <gnomefreak> martii: than dont do that. close ff like you should
[07:57] <Some_Person> and what about the one on freecontrib.org?
[07:57] <gnomefreak> martii: i think it sends kill sig. to firefox-bin
[07:57] <NoUse> Some_Person yeah it should
[07:57] <Khamael> Serious-Sven: no.. just the standard "apt-get install mplayer-mozilla"
[07:57] <gnomefreak> closing ff and killing it are not the same
[07:57] <martii> gnomefreak: easy to say\
[07:58] <Cntryboy> why in UT-original it won't let me change to 16bit color and a resolution higher than 800x600?
[07:58] <martii> gnomefreak: sometimes I leave it on and someone else shuts down computer
[07:58] <martii> gnomefreak: just stupid
[07:58] <gnomefreak> martii: that will be changing soon afaik anyway
[07:58] <NoUse> Some_Person be back later
[07:58] <Khamael> Serious-Sven: and when I try to stream video, I get black square with "no picture", and the sound
[07:58] <Some_Person> ok, everythings ftp
[07:58] <gnomefreak> martii: the new versions recover from messed up sessions
[07:58] <martii> gnomefreak: and BTW ubuntu freezes while i shut it down
[07:58] <cr3> movie player was once working well and now the picture is all dark, what might be the problem?
[07:58] <Some_Person> freecontrib server failed
[07:59] <Some_Person> they have to be http
[07:59] <martii> gnomefreak: I don't think it will recover only 5 files ar left
[07:59] <gnomefreak> martii: maybe low mem or small swap?>
[07:59] <jrib> buggzero: for example, can you play this: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/troubleshooting/
[07:59] <Cntryboy> anyone?
[07:59] <oskude> cr3, you got youre eyes closed ? ;)
[07:59] <martii> gnomefreak: 1gb of RAM 3gb of swap
[07:59] <martii> gnomefreak: it look like alsa
[07:59] <gnomefreak> martii: ff should not over write anything unless you change it
[07:59] <Chri[s] > If GDM doesnt start on startup what could be the problem because i've tried uninstalling/reinstalling/reconfiguring but they have all failed
[07:59] <cr3> oskude: nah, and they aren't even half closed. I'm not that tired :)
[07:59] <Xoritor> can anyone help me with my xhost not letting local users access?
[07:59] <gnomefreak> martii: thats very possible
[07:59] <Rambo3> martii are you running some server there
[07:59] <martii> gnomefreak: as I can hear half of shutdown sound
[07:59] <Sivik> Cntryboy, i'm glad that you got UT running, i'm assuming your using the linux supported stuff for that game
[08:00] <martii> gnomefreak: and it freezes
[08:00] <Cntryboy> Sivik, I've had it running I just can't seem to get past my problems though lol.
[08:00] <Some_Person> yay! it worked1
[08:00] <Cntryboy> yes the linux supported stuff
[08:00] <Sivik> Cntryboy, thats good
[08:00] <Chri[s] > I think somethings wrong with my startup scripts
[08:00] <gnomefreak> martii: it sounds like it very well could be that. see if you can end the pid and see if it still hangs on shutdown
[08:00] <Some_Person> all ftp except the freecontrib servers
[08:00] <martii> gnomefreak: after reset FF for example is with only 5 files in profile - crap I have to configure it once again
[08:01] <Cntryboy> its jerky in game play, won't let me change resolution higher than 800x600 and it won't let me change color bits to 16
[08:01] <Cntryboy> not sure why though
[08:01] <buggzero> jrib:
[08:01] <martii> gnomefreak: I'll try that - funny thing is that it was behaving like that just after fresh install
[08:01] <gnomefreak> martii: is this ff 1.5?
[08:01] <buggzero> jrib: No input plugin it says
[08:01] <buggzero> jrib: im going to try and reinstall the codecs
[08:01] <martii> gnomefreak: dapper with FF 1.5.0.4
[08:01] <martii> gnomefreak: than there were few upgrades
[08:01] <jrib> buggzero: did you try downloading the .mov to your harddrive and playing there too? rtsp://a608.q.kamai.net/3/608/51/428cf2ee/1a1a1aa00f85ee53c6f465d94f7dde4ebe2a8fbd208ffc2b98077de64bbeed4ebe2e9aff5ec3399e0c80f322950978e654b5/fire_28.mov
[08:02] <martii> gnomefreak: things looked like fixed
[08:02] <Chri[s] > anyone used k3b?
[08:02] <gnomefreak> martii: i would file a bug on both if it continues
[08:02] <Sivik> Chri[s] , you know i do
[08:02] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : some of us do
[08:02] <martii> gnomefreak: and after last bigger upgrade (lots of X packages) apeared again
[08:02] <Chri[s] > Have you ever had that tmp file in the /usr area locked out on you?
[08:02] <Sivik> Chri[s] , is poor little chris having problems
[08:02] <Chri[s] > it says i can use it
[08:02] <martii> gnomefreak: I'll do just checking if it's known problem
[08:03] <gnomefreak> martii: might also try #firefox or #mozilla
[08:03] <powerbook99> can anyone help me with dvd codec playbac installation
[08:03] <Chri[s] > Sivik gdm has been broke for days, i have to lauch X by logging in console terminal then type "startx"
[08:03] <Chri[s] > i've tried removing it and reinstalling it
[08:03] <jrib> buggzero: actually that won't work too well since it's rtsp: but I would find some free sample download somewhere and try it out
[08:04] <Chri[s] > but it still broke so i think its a part of the startup scripts
[08:05] <thespore> My keystrokes don't repeat when held down.  IE, I hold down backspace and it only goes back one character and then stops.  Is this a setting somewhere?
[08:05] <Cntryboy> why in UT-original it won't let me change to 16bit color and a resolution higher than 800x600, and is very choppy in game play?
[08:05] <oskude> thespore, hmm, where does this happen, i just tested in terminal and it worls...
[08:06] <thespore> everywhere.. browser, terminal, xchat
[08:06] <GTX> How can I make it so people cannot see inside other peoples users directorys, someone told me the command before but I have forgotten it
[08:06] <oskude> thespore, hmm, try system-preferences-keyboard...
[08:07] <Chri[s] > unable to link temporary file in folder /tmp/kde-chris/k3bVideoDvd0.
[08:07] <judah> !chmod
[08:07] <ubotu> I know nothing about chmod
[08:07] <oskude> GTX, i thought that would be standars :/
[08:07] <Chri[s] > That's what k3b is saying
[08:08] <GTX> oskude, nope... You cant write to other peoples directorys but can read
[08:08] <thespore> oskude, well i enabled the option.. but it still doesn't work.  Another issue I'm having is that none of the icons in the menus appear.
[08:08] <oskude> GTX, omg, thats bad
[08:08] <buggzero> jrib: im browsing on the forums, and I see people with the same problem but no avail
[08:08] <oskude> thespore, try resatrting gnome
[08:08] <GTX> oskude, all OS's have it... Theres a command to fix it cant remember what, chmod something
[08:09] <thespore> oskude, ok will do that in a bit
[08:09] <judah> chmod 744 /home/foo
[08:09] <oskude> GTX, yeah, you can change it with chmod, but atleas debian had it so that no one except you can see your home... (but maybe im just wrong...)
[08:09] <judah> 7 rwx 4 r--
[08:09] <jrib> buggzero: it may be that quicktime7 isn't properly handled by anything yet on linux
[08:09] <GTX> judah, neg theres a way to which you do something in /home/ and all users are chmoded
[08:10] <judah> well you can use chmod recursively..
[08:10] <jrib> buggzero: I would try it here, but I'm on dialup
[08:10] <judah> or you can say chmod 744 /home/*  and that will change everything in home to rwxr--r--
[08:10] <judah> basically it's chmod that you're looking for..
[08:11] <judah> chmod, chown, chgrp
[08:11] <judah> those are the three goodz.
[08:11] <oskude> hmm, i got my home chmoded osku:osku and still others can see it ?!
[08:11] <judah> osku:osku is GROUP.
[08:12] <judah> that's different than if you want read for all which is the thrid section.
[08:12] <oskude> osku: is user, :osku is group...
[08:12] <judah> actualy.. user:group
[08:12] <judah> right.
[08:12] <oskude> so why do others see it then ?
[08:12] <judah> so if you only want user and group to be able to access only giving group read access and deny everyone else..
[08:12] <jrib> ubotu: tell oskude about permissions
[08:12] <judah> it would be.. chmod 740 /home/osku
[08:13] <oskude> yeah, but why do "other" have read rights to my home as standard, buf !! :)
[08:13] <cute_bettong> !sources
[08:13] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto and !easysource
[08:13] <buggzero> jrib: im not getting any action for wmv files either
[08:13] <oskude> buf=bug ^^
[08:13] <Cntryboy> Doesn't anyone here know anything about video card problems?
[08:13] <buggzero> jrib- i can hear them but i can't see them
[08:13] <judah> rwxr--r--  where rwx is for user.. the middle r-- is for group and the last r-- is everyone on the system.
[08:14] <oskude> Cntryboy, sorry, i had nvidia and ati and video allways workde :/
[08:14] <judah> permissions 740 would be rwxr-----
[08:14] <jrib> buggzero: what is the result of this command: apt-cache policy w32codecs | grep -i Installed
[08:14] <judah> which would deny the 'OTHERS'
[08:14] <Cntryboy> video works, but I'm having issues in unreal tournament game.
[08:14] <legoscia> when the automatic dapper upgrading tool has been improperly
[08:14] <legoscia> terminated and left lockfiles all over the place, how can i remove
[08:14] <legoscia> them so i can use package tools again?
[08:15] <oskude> i know all about right, i just wonder why its standard that all users see your home...
[08:15] <cute_bettong> where can i find the link for the old breezy repos?
[08:15] <oskude> +s
[08:15] <cute_bettong> i need to get some stuff that isen't in dapper anymore
[08:15] <judah> it's unix/linux tradition.
[08:15] <judah> there should be nothing to hide except what you don't what to give permissions to.
[08:15] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: you dont want to do that
[08:15] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak,  yes i do
[08:15] <judah> oskude: +s is setuid
[08:16] <oskude> hmm, maybe i remeber wrong, in debian you couldnt see others home...
[08:16] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak,  yahoo messenger for debian won't install in dapper becasue it's missing something
[08:16] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: its a good first class way to mess up your system
[08:16] <judah> i think they ask you during the install of debian.
[08:16] <mrDaniel> i have a problem to compile the new intel ASL compiler from http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads.htm->Source Code Pages->Unix ACPI CA - Unix Build Environment.
[08:16] <buggzero> jrib-   Installed: 20050412-1plf4
[08:16] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak, well it won't install without the missing dependancy
[08:16] <jrib> buggzero: what version wmv?
[08:16] <buggzero> 9
[08:17] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: it will throw off all your dependencies mixing repos
[08:17] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak, it's the way i installed cedega as well i used the breezy sources to get the nessisary files
[08:17] <mrDaniel> i have already install bison and flex, but a error occur, i don't understand
[08:17] <buggzero> jrib- 9
[08:17] <jrib> buggzero: those should play
[08:17] <judah> and acutally now that i think about it..
[08:17] <jrib> buggzero: are you using xine? (they won't play in vlc)
[08:17] <mrDaniel> its about a file 'yytext_ptr', which is not declared
[08:17] <judah> the default is generally 755 or
[08:17] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak,  dappers dependancys are screwd up anyway....dependancy wise it's killed over half my programs
[08:17] <judah> rwxr-xr-x
[08:17] <buggzero> jrib- jxine
[08:17] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: and the min you update it will go back to newest version
[08:17] <buggzero> jrib - gxine
[08:17] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: yahoo isnt worth it try gaim
[08:17] <cute_bettong> gaim sucks won't let me transfer files
[08:17] <mrDaniel> do anyone can download the 'package' and try to 'make'-it? i dont where the problem could be
[08:18] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: dapper doesnt have denpends issues atm that i am aware of
[08:18] <GTX> How can I make it so people cannot see inside other peoples users directorys, someone told me the command before but I have forgotten it
[08:18] <jrib> buggzero: go in preferences and make sure that the codecs directory is pointing to the correct one that w32codecs installed to
[08:18] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak, go install cedega or yahoo messenger and tell me if thats still true
[08:18] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: dapper repos are same as breezy repos with breezy instead of dapper but you were warned
[08:18] <cute_bettong> heck ill even let you use my transgaming account
[08:18] <cute_bettong> ok thank you ^_^
[08:18] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: cedega installs fine
[08:19] <cute_bettong> diden't for me
[08:19] <elcepi> hey, can someone help me!! I can not burn CD/DVD in Dapper :(
[08:19] <cute_bettong> i have had problems with transgamings point2play and with yahoo
[08:19] <judah> GTX.. are you serious.. i just told you.
[08:19] <oskude> elcepi, what a luck, i hate bured plastic ;)
[08:19] <oskude> *burned
[08:19] <reqage> transgaming crashes on me when installing a game... frustrating
[08:20] <elcepi> sorry my dyslexia :S
[08:20] <cvasilak> hello there, if i install xgl/compiz i will loose support for accellerated opengl (not mesa)?
[08:20] <cvasilak> in games etc...
[08:20] <buggzero> jrib- it says /usr/lib/codecs
[08:20] <oskude> elcepi, do you get an error when trying to burn cd/dvd ?
[08:20] <Pelo> good afternoon folks,  anyone know a nice little app to view linux partitionned hdd in xp ?
[08:20] <jrib> buggzero: what does 'dpkg -L w32codecs' say they got installed to?
[08:21] <rhalff> hi anyone can recommend me some good amd64 laptop ?
[08:21] <neotard> Pelo:  there was a project a few years ago for ext partitions, but I didn't follow it :(
[08:21] <GTX> How do I stop other users reading files inside another user directory?
[08:22] <D1> can I safely disable anacron and atd if I keep cron? I don't know what processes use them, but I'd like to keep one scheduler.
[08:22] <mooseman447> hey
[08:22] <Pelo> GTX  click on the  icon and set the permissions
[08:22] <cute_bettong> huh now both of my apps work just fine O_o
[08:22] <mooseman447> why is there no file manager in the new ubuntu?
[08:22] <ghostghost> hi i just installed dapper over my breezy installation and want to bind my windows keys to a terminal and home directory, how do i do this in dapper? thanks in advance!
[08:22] <judah> what was i thinking..
[08:22] <GTX> Pelo, Its running ubuntu server. and I want it to so other people which are added in the future cant see it either
[08:22] <gi2k15> ok, seems wow does not want to install when I copy every file from the CDs to the HDD. It says "Sorry, the installer was unable to start up". Any ideas?
[08:23] <judah> GTX: now you're getting somewhere.. you LEFT THAT PART OUT..
[08:23] <oskude> judah, well, i understanded that right away for GTXs questio...
[08:23] <judah> GTX: research umask
[08:23] <GTX> I didnt use umask i dont think
[08:23] <Chri[s] > yawn
[08:24] <GTX> I just chmod'ed /home or something
[08:24] <Chri[s] > how can i repair gdm?
[08:24] <mooseman447> does anybody know where the nautilus icon is stored?
[08:24] <burgermann> Can someone point out the difference between linux-source, linux-headers and which of all the packages fits Dapper Drake?
[08:24] <ghostghost> anyone?
[08:24] <oskude> mooseman447, try /usr/pixmap (or such)
[08:24] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm
[08:24] <elcepi> I go to places -> CD/DVD Creator -> Drag a 1MB file (just that) -> Click in "Write to Disk" -> Click in "Write" ... and get a Insert a rewritable or blank disc.  But the disk is blank
[08:24] <mooseman447> yea but i cant find it there
[08:24] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, reinstalling it doesnt fix it
[08:24] <burgermann> ghostghost: how about the keyboard settings?
[08:25] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : what is the issue with it?
[08:25] <mooseman447> because there is no file manager on the normal menu im going to add it to the top panel but i cant find the icon
[08:25] <judah> chmod and a sticky-bit
[08:25] <Chri[s] > it does start on startup
[08:25] <Chri[s] > doesnt
[08:25] <ghostghost> yeah i had a look around keyboard
[08:25] <ghostghost> and jey shortcuts
[08:25] <cute_bettong> why is it then gnomefreak that i cannot install sertain things like i used to? i have every repo known to man and a few known to monkys
[08:25] <oskude> burgermann, linux-source could be the whole source code of linux, linux-header would be only the *.h files you need when compiling stuff that need linux sources to compile...
[08:25] <judah> chomd o+somethign
[08:25] <ghostghost> but couldn;t find the relevant bit
[08:26] <ghostghost> i think the method is different to how it was in breazy
[08:26] <ghostghost> or its in a different place at least
[08:26] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, let me reboot and see if that worked
[08:26] <judah> google will help with the rest i'm sure. i'm starving.
[08:26] <Flippy209> fyi ic56 = pimp.
[08:26] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, brb
[08:26] <ghostghost> I think it was something to do with metcity.... maybe?
[08:26] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: depends what you are trying to install like take cedega for example the only issue i remember was xlibs and you just needed xlibs-dev to fix that iirc
[08:26] <fatlip> finally
[08:26] <burgermann> ghostghost: I'm wouldn't know I'm sitting in Kubuntu breezy ;S
[08:26] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: it could be the repos you have
[08:27] <ghostghost> whats it like?
[08:27] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: could be packages changed names
[08:27] <fatlip> okay so i'm doing backups... someone said i should use fat32, but the max size on fat32 is 32GB -- should i just make multiple partitions?
[08:27] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak, i have all the recommeded ubuntu repos
[08:27] <Sivik> how do i update the clock via the time server
[08:27] <burgermann> oskude: thanks. So compiling third party modules would require the linux-header package?
[08:27] <gnomefreak> you tell me the package and what its looking for it can be taken care of atleast with a wget
[08:27] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: only dapper repos?
[08:28] <cute_bettong> yes that is my default repos
[08:28] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: no unoffical repos like seveas repo or any of those?
[08:28] <oskude> burgermann, yup, allmost allways if some program needs another program/library, you would need th *-dev package, or in linux case linux-header...
[08:29] <cute_bettong> no
[08:29] <darkyoshi372> How can I amplify the sound coming out of my sound card? It's not really loud enough, even with headphones.
[08:29] <cute_bettong> just the ubuntu ones that where reccomemded by the bot
[08:29] <gnomefreak> !repos
[08:29] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto and !easysource
[08:30] <oskude> darkyoshi372, if its not loud enough, you need an external amplifier...
[08:30] <Goshawk> how can i see what's my arch?
[08:30] <gnomefreak> cute_bettong: what package are you looking for lets start there
[08:30] <mindspit> hallo you fantastic people!
[08:30] <cute_bettong> i have always had problems with easy source
[08:30] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, didnt work
[08:30] <spikeb> hiya mindspit
[08:30] <gnomefreak> Goshawk: uname -r
[08:30] <mahatm1> hello
[08:30] <darkyoshi372> odkude, the problem is that in windows it's louder.
[08:30] <cute_bettong> don't know used the breezy repos and it fixed them
[08:30] <burgermann> oksude, that's sweet. I've been trying to build a module with linux-source and it's jammers up about invalid module format :s
[08:30] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : what didnt work?
[08:30] <burgermann> oskude: hopefully this works then :P
[08:30] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, on boot up gdm doesnt start
[08:30] <Goshawk> gnomefreak: it gives me the kernel version
[08:30] <oskude> darkyoshi372, the new soundcards dont have an "earphone" output, so you need to amplifie it somewhere else...
[08:31] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: nope, uname -m
[08:31] <NickGarvey> Goshawk: uname -m
[08:31] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, ps aux|grep gdm shows gdm running
[08:31] <gnomefreak> Goshawk: it should say 386 or 686 or ppc or k7
[08:31] <darkyoshi372> oskude, okay, thanks.
[08:31] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: -r is kernel version
[08:31] <mahatm1> I'm getting the error 17 from grub after an install - I only have one hd with two partitions (root and swap)
[08:31] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: uname -r will give you arch
[08:31] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak even if i kill gdm and try to lauch it manually it fails
[08:31] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: it gives you the arch
[08:31] <fatlip> how do i inialize/partition a harddisk in ubuntu?
[08:31] <Warbo> How do you change GNOME's default Window Manager from Metacity to Enlightnement short of linking /usr/bin/metacity to /usr/bin/enlightenment? Gconf options don't seem to work
[08:31] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : do you have any gui?
[08:31] <fatlip> is there a graphical way? or must i use fdisk?
[08:31] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, yes i'm in gnome now
[08:31] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: "-r, --kernel-release"
[08:31] <Goshawk> NickGarvey: yep uname -m
[08:31] <Warbo> !gparted
[08:31] <ubotu> I know nothing about gparted
[08:31] <Chri[s] > gnomefreak, startx from terminal
[08:32] <mahatm1> I see some posts on this subject, but they don't seem to apply to my situation
[08:32] <Warbo> fatlip: GParted
[08:32] <oskude> fatlip, fyi: cfdisk is "better" to use than fdisk
[08:32] <Chri[s] > or X
[08:32] <Chri[s] > which ever you prefer
[08:32] <fatlip> =] 
[08:32] <NickGarvey> !gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted"
[08:32] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: uname -r look at the end of it it gives the arch
[08:32] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: oh true
[08:32] <jrib> buggzero: well if it's any consilation quicktime7 appears to be the same as h264 and I'm able to stream them with mplayer
[08:32] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: -m is better ;)
[08:32] <fatlip> i have gparted ona live cd somewhere
[08:32] <fatlip> theres a non-live cd version i assume
[08:33] <Warbo> fatlip: You can't change any partitions you are using, so a LiveCD lets you do anything (since it doesn't use your HD)
[08:33] <NickGarvey> !no gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[08:33] <gnomefreak> Chri[s] : i dont know i would try sudo update-alternatives --all and choose what you want as default for everything there should be a part in it for x-session iirc choose the gdm one

[08:34] <mikearthur> arm73c05: don't have a 2007fpw, but have 2005
[08:34] <fatlip> alright nice -- this works on usb drives right?

[08:34] <mikearthur> arm73c05: what video card?
[08:34] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: oh? they changed it?
[08:34] <arm73c05> mikearthur: nvidia fx5200
[08:34] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: new bot
[08:34] <mikearthur> arm73c05: you should be able to almost cut and paste
[08:34] <Warbo> Anyone know how to replace Metacity with Enlightenment (not system-wide)?
[08:34] <Chri[s] > apt-get update and what else?
[08:34] <arm73c05> mikearthur: thanks a lot.  i would think so too.
[08:35] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: oh, alrighty.. someone should change the message then, it said I had to identify to use that command which is why I kept trying heh

[08:35] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[08:35] <fatlip> and would you agree that fat32 is the best FS to use for backing up?
[08:35] <arm73c05> mikearthur: thanks mike.
[08:35] <Warbo> mikearthur: You must be a pretty advanced card if you can talk on a chat room :)
[08:35] <mikearthur> arm73c05: no worries, let me know if you need any more help
[08:35] <oskude> fatlip, NO
[08:35] <NickGarvey> jrib: what is that?
[08:35] <fatlip> what is?
[08:35] <mikearthur> Warbo: lol, typo :)
[08:36] <fatlip> most of these files are from a windows system.. and fat32 is pretty much universal.. thats what made me think about it
[08:36] <cute_bettong> gnomefreak, i think the reason it cannot update anything that i have gotten from the breezy repos is becasue i don't have the dapper ones lol
[08:36] <Warbo> fatlip: Tar?
[08:36] <oskude> fatlip, fat32 is only the "best" if you want whare dataq between linux and windoze
[08:36] <mikearthur> fat32 is a terrible filesystem
[08:36] <arm73c05> mikearthur: brb.
[08:36] <Warbo> fatlip: FAT has no concept of file ownership, permission, etc. but tar archives do
[08:36] <NickGarvey> I use xfs
[08:36] <elcepi> oskude: And, when I use cdrecord i get "cdrecord: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.15-25-386
[08:36] <elcepi> cdrecord: There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5 and newer.
[08:36] <elcepi> cdrecord: If you have unexpected problems, please try Linux-2.4 or Solaris."
[08:36] <fatlip> mikearthur, i concur.. due to its lack of fault tolorance.. but i figured since its read easily by all OSes
[08:37] <jrib> NickGarvey: a private message, but never mind since gnomefreak just explained
[08:37] <gnomefreak> !gparted
[08:37] <mikearthur> windows can read/write ext2/3
[08:37] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning tool. "apt-get install gparted"
[08:37] <fatlip> but now that i think about it.. if i ever needed to recover data.. i could really use any system and just transfer
[08:37] <elcepi> I have sata hard disk and 2.4 does not boot ok
[08:37] <NickGarvey> jrib: oh alrighty, what is the difference between /query and /msg?
[08:37] <mikearthur> elcepi: kernel 2.4?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: nothing
[08:37] <oskude> elcepi, hmm, newer seen that message an i have burned cds, dvds and dvd rams...
[08:37] <mikearthur> NickGarvey: you can type msg quicker :D
[08:38] <NickGarvey> haha okie
[08:38] <Warbo> fatlip: LiveCDs are useful for recovering data, and there are no publicly available Windows LiveCDs anyway
[08:38] <mikearthur> Warbo: BartPE is
[08:38] <fatlip> so xfs is suggested?
[08:38] <jrib> NickGarvey: I don't really know
[08:38] <Warbo> mikearthur: That's not publicly available is it? (and doesn't it need a pagefile as well?)
[08:38] <spikeb> bartpe is a dos livecd IIRC
[08:38] <oskude> fatlip, i heard there are windows xfs drivers, but i never tested...
[08:39] <elcepi> oskude: I google it and I find some problems with sata and some durners I dont know if that is the problem
[08:39] <fatlip> i saw them.. i havent tested either
[08:39] <NickGarvey> fatlip: oh I don't know how windows handles xfs, so if you need to access on windows I'd use ext3
[08:39] <xuser> does Ubuntu supports wpa?
[08:39] <fatlip> ext3 = reiser?
[08:39] <oskude> fatlip, ext3 != reiser4
[08:40] <fatlip> i'm not seeing ext3 as a choice here
[08:40] <fatlip> is there an alternate name for it?
[08:40] <oskude> fatlip, != means "not the same"
[08:40] <gnomefreak> fatlip: no they are different filesystems
[08:40] <fatlip> i know ;)
[08:40] <oskude> fatlip, seeing where ?
[08:40] <fatlip> gparted
[08:40] <oskude> OMG
[08:40] <fatlip> whoa there we go
[08:40] <fatlip> nevermind.. sorry about that
[08:40] <someothernick> O.o
[08:40] <oskude> thought so :)
[08:40] <Warbo> SO nobody has any ideas for using Enlightenment in GNOME? Compiz has a --replace option but E doesn't (version 0.16 by the way)
[08:40] <fatlip> apparently i'm blind
[08:40] <Sivik> i have a little problem, i had to mount the drive to run the wine setup.exe, now i have a second cd to install, but i can't get the rom open
[08:41] <blind> apparently I'm fatlip
[08:41] <fatlip> lol!
[08:41] <oskude> lol
[08:41] <spikeb> heh
[08:41] <fatlip> nice
[08:42] <gnomefreak> Warbo: i would try #ubuntu-xgl for that but i think its only kde and gnone  e-gnome isnt plain gnome
[08:42] <Warbo> Sivik: If it isn't being used anymore then "sudo eject /dev/devicename" should work (although WINE might not give it up like it should)
[08:42] <Sivik> ok
[08:42] <NickGarvey> fatlip: Recovering deleted files from an XFS filesystem is almost impossible (though this can be an advantage, too)
[08:42] <Sivik> it says the device is busy
[08:42] <fatlip> yes but isnt that the prediciment we all face?
[08:42] <Sivik> Warbo: is there another way to try it
[08:42] <SVisor> Has anyone noticed that Firefox (version bundled with 6.06) is slow?
[08:42] <MisterN> NickGarvey: _almost_?
[08:42] <mikearthur> anyone here got ut2004 working?
[08:42] <Warbo> gnomefreak: I was just commenting that Compiz (and Metacity) have the option to replace the running WM
[08:42] <someothernick> lol just sweat talk her
[08:43] <someothernick> *sweet
[08:43] <kzin> if anyone groks wifi i'll be grateful: using dapper on one of the latest ibook G4 (PPC) with Airport Extreme, that's bcm43xx. i can sniff the wireless traffic but dhcp usually fails, tcpdumo showing DHCP requests being sent but no replies. if i wiggle with it (ifdown, ifup, iwconfig stuff) i eventually manage to get it working but i lose it after the next suspend-to-ram. any ideas?
[08:43] <fatlip> sure if i needed to delete stuff i'd probably need to do it in a hurry and make it unrecoverable.....not that i do anything unsavvy.... but you never know
[08:43] <fatlip> but then again if something gets accidentally deleted and i want it back.. i'd be screwed
[08:43] <Warbo> Sivik: If the program isn't letting go of the drive then you might try making ISOs of the discs (using dd) and mounting them instead of the real discs
[08:44] <Sivik> ok
[08:44] <fatlip> i'm thinking about just encrypting the entire disk
[08:44] <JINDAL> hullo guys nd gals :P
[08:44] <dope> whats a good iso burning program for linux
[08:44] <voraistos> hey people. how do i know what my processor is? i should have centrino (i686), but is it P4M or PM ?
[08:44] <fatlip> but again.. i'm afraid of corruption
[08:44] <Warbo> dope: Nautilus, and failing that GnomeBaker and K3b
[08:44] <someothernick> k3b gnomebaker dope
[08:45] <dope> can i use apt to install gnomebaker
[08:45] <Warbo> dope: yes
[08:45] <dope> ok
[08:45] <dope> thanks
[08:45] <voraistos> apt-get install gnomebaker
[08:45] <Sivik> ok
[08:45] <Warbo> voraistos: sudo
[08:45] <voraistos> yeah. i am recompiling my kernel so i am root right now ;)
[08:45] <Sivik> Warbo: how do i create those iso images?
[08:46] <[Finn] > i'm having big problems with my integrated wifi-card in my laptop, is there a way to find out witch card it is and futhermore witch drivers i need?
[08:46] <Sivik> [Finn] , what kind of card?
[08:46] <Warbo> Sivik: If you do "dd if=/dev/cdromdevicename of=/home/username/disc1.iso" for example (replace those generic bits)
[08:46] <[Finn] > thats my problem
[08:46] <someothernick> lol
[08:46] <Solan> I'm truing to recove some data from an "well on the way to be broken" HD, but I can't seem to get the HD mounted in Ubuntu when I use the LiveCD. The PC has got XP on it, so I have to use the live CD.
[08:46] <Sivik> ok
[08:46] <[Finn] > its an ibm thinkpad r40
[08:46] <Sivik> [Finn] , what kind of card, you can discover by doing an lspci
[08:46] <Sivik> [Finn] , what kind of card, not computer
[08:47] <Warbo> Solan: If you get I/O errors then it may be past recovery
[08:47] <zenit> [Finn] : maybe lspci can help you on the way
[08:47] <Solan> Warbo, I'm not getting I/O errors, but I just can't find the HD in Ubuntu, and I don't remember how to mount it;)
[08:47] <Sivik> Warbo: will that create an iso image?
[08:47] <Warbo> [Finn] : Try "lspci" and that might give you some info (if it uses the PCI interface that is)
[08:48] <neutrinomass> Solan: System->Administration->disks ? :)
[08:48] <Warbo> Sivik: Yes, it will dump the CD into a file, which is what an ISO is
[08:48] <Sivik> ok
[08:48] <[Finn] > can it be one of these:
[08:48] <[Finn] > 0000:02:00.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1510 PC card Cardbus Controller
[08:48] <[Finn] > 0000:02:08.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB PRO/100 VE (MOB) Ethernet Controller (rev 83)
[08:49] <Solan> can't find it.... Norwegian setup, but I can't find anything that resebles Disks...
[08:49] <fatlip> now i just gotta figure out how to mount this drive
[08:49] <Sivik> [Finn] , no
[08:49] <Warbo> If I try my E experiments in XNest it won't cause any problems will it?
[08:49] <Sivik> Warbo, what do you mean by E experiments?
[08:50] <Warbo> E=Enlightenment
[08:50] <pradeep> is there command to minimize all apps
[08:50] <fish831> hello, I am having trouble with my built in wireless card.  It shows up under network settings, but I cannot connect to or scan available networks.
[08:50] <Sivik> Warbo: which version, e17 or e16?
[08:50] <pradeep> and show desktop?
[08:50] <fatlip> .. sudo mount -t ext3 -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 /dev/sda /media/backup
[08:50] <fatlip> do i need that -o part?
[08:50] <Warbo> I'm trying to get it to replace Metacity for my user. At the moment I have just told Metacity to not restart, killed it, then run E
[08:50] <neutrinomass> Solan: Should be first or second in the menu (I've installed a couple of other programs so I can't tell for sure). It's got a hard disk next to it ;)
[08:50] <Warbo> E16
[08:50] <onkarshinde> I am unable to play VCD in totem in dapper. Using totem-gstreamer
[08:51] <Sivik> onkarshinde, try xine or mplayer
[08:51] <Solan> nope, I don't have anything like that on my System, Administration
[08:51] <Warbo> pradeep: There is a button for it on the panel (in GNOME and probably KDE)
[08:51] <sryan> I have to say, I upgraded from Breezy to Dapper and it went flawless!
[08:51] <onkarshinde> Sivik: I know obvious solution. But why VCD were working till few days ago
[08:51] <Solan> I'm running hoary...
[08:51] <sryan> I'm quite happy with my Ubuntu experience thus far.
[08:51] <Sivik> onkarshinde, not sure, i have never tried to run a VCD
[08:51] <sryan> Other than it doesn't like my internal wireless card on my Dell Inspiron 1150.
[08:51] <pradeep> Warbo, not a button .. like if i'm playing a full screen game .. if i want to go to desktop
[08:51] <onkarshinde> pradeep: What are you looking for?
[08:52] <krang> Anyone here know how to update groups in NIS? ypcat group only has entries and doesn't math /etc/group on the server
[08:52] <bsdfox> something musta crashed.. I have to tap the arrow every time to move over a space, ie holding it doesn't make it move. any advice? I don't really want to reboot right now
[08:52] <krang> Sorry "2 entries"
[08:52] <neutrinomass> Solan: Oh, may not exist on hoary...not sure. Well, open up a terminal. I take it you have a non-SCSI disk ? How many partitions do you have ?
[08:52] <mikearthur> anyone here run UT2004?
[08:52] <Warbo> pradeep: Ah, that may be determined by your window manager. Maybe Alt-Right Click will give you a menu (including minimise)?
[08:52] <voraistos> i used to ;)
[08:52] <voraistos> for UT ;)
[08:53] <pooya> hi, how can I run a command just before shutdown?
[08:53] <onkarshinde> is there any gst-register for gstreamer0.10 as there was for 0.8?
[08:53] <pradeep> Warbo, i'll check
[08:53] <pradeep> brb
[08:53] <panthar> Does anyone else have a problem where most media players lock up when trying to play an MP3 stream instead of skipping to the next item in the playlist if it has trouble connecting?
[08:53] <krang> onkarshinde: gst-register0.10
[08:53] <krang> onkarshinde: or gst-register-0.10
[08:53] <bsdfox> my screen keeps fading to black every like 15-20 minutes too (like it were going to screensaver or suspend) but then doesn't do anything.. any ideas?
[08:53] <onkarshinde> krang: No such thing on my installation.
[08:53] <Warbo> panthar: It may have a huge time-out if it keeps waiting (or has it fully locked up?)
[08:54] <panthar> It locks up the interface.
[08:54] <Warbo> bsdfox: Disable DPMS?
[08:54] <hackel> Does anyone know how to configure GIMP / gimp-print to print using my installed CUPS driver (hplip) instead of the gutenprint drivers?
[08:54] <panthar> This happens in XMMS, Rhythmbox, the XFCE media player, etc...
[08:54] <pradeep> Warbo, not working :(
[08:54] <Warbo> pradeep: OK, just a suggestion
[08:55] <panthar> I have only gotten Beep and mplayer to handle it gracefully.
[08:55] <panthar> Local MP3's and some streams do work okay.
[08:55] <fish831> Any one know of a good application to scan available wireless networks?
[08:55] <Ohzie> Has anyone played games on ubuntu using cedega?
[08:55] <onkarshinde> fish831: DId you try wifi radar?
[08:56] <krang> onkarshinde: /usr/bin/gst-register-0.10?
[08:56] <Warbo> pradeep: I can't think of anything to minimise a fullscreenprogram, other than maybe using brightside to edgeflip desktops or running the game, etc. in another X and using ctrl-alt-fX to switch
[08:56] <onkarshinde> krang: Nope.
[08:56] <krang> onkarshinde: dang
[08:56] <krang> onkarshinde: should be there
[08:56] <Sivik> Warbo: can i mount all three of the .iso's at once so i can just tell the installer to look?
[08:57] <timas> hello!
[08:57] <onkarshinde> krang: No it is not. Checked packages.ubuntu.com also. There is no package which contains this.
[08:57] <Spec> Can I compare two floating numbers in bash?
[08:57] <Sivik> timas: hi
[08:57] <krang> onkarshinde: is gstreamer definitely installed?
[08:57] <pooya> command before shutdown?
[08:57] <onkarshinde> krang: Yes
[08:57] <Warbo> Sivik: I think so, but you may need to tell WINE that you have some "extra CD drives"
[08:58] <fish831> onkarshinde: thanks... for some reason it wasn't working yesterday... works now
[08:58] <timas> Frustration has braught me so far, so I'm just going to throw it out there.. is there anywhere where I can find the linux-headers for the .19 kernel version? My machine can't mount my drives with the newer ones so I'm stuck using that one and now I need the headers.. which I can't seem to find anywhere..
[08:58] <fatlip> how do i open a folder as root?
[08:58] <XHK> Anyone got any idea, why gaim won't appear on system tray, though it has been enabled on gaim config.
[08:58] <DarkRavenMixage> timas have you ever tried to use synaptic?
[08:58] <fatlip> (in gnome, not terminal)
[08:59] <Warbo> timas: 2.6.15-19?
[08:59] <DarkRavenMixage> and type linux-headers?
[08:59] <DarkRavenMixage> lol
[08:59] <krang> onkarshinde: apt-cache search gstreamer and check you installed all those packages are installed
[08:59] <timas> Warbo: yes
[08:59] <NoUse> fatlip usually you don't :-), what are you trying to do?
[08:59] <watson540> Is there a way to change the resolutionn of a FRAMEBUFFER CONSOLE FROM WITHIN IT?/ (INSTEAD OF PASSING 'VGA=52' AT BOOT THROUGH GRUB)
[08:59] <xzz> Where's the oowriter2 binary located in Dapper Drake?
[08:59] <fatlip> trying to copy folders over to this blank drive
[08:59] <watson540> ERRR
[09:00] <timas> DarkRavenMixage: I have, but it only lists the .23 and .25
[09:00] <watson540> SORRY I DIDNT KNow abuuott caps
[09:00] <fatlip> i mounted the new drive and i'm getting permission errors
[09:00] <NoUse> fatlip ntfs? fat32?
[09:00] <watson540> jhust woke up
[09:00] <DarkRavenMixage> timas update your kernel
[09:00] <fatlip> ntfs -> ext3
[09:00] <pooya> is it possible to run a command before shutdown?
[09:00] <timas> DarkRAvenMixage: I can't, it wont mount my drives with anything newer as the .19
[09:00] <DarkRavenMixage> why?
[09:00] <onkarshinde> krang: I am on dapper and 0.10 version of gstreamer is installed. Isn't that sufficient? Also as I said, VCDs were working till few days ago
[09:00] <Warbo> timas: Well that was only available in the development versions of Dapper, so there is only continued support for -23 and up. I had to reluctantly upgrade from -18 to -23 the other day (and rewrite my boot CD) since all of the -18 packages were gone and I couldn't use the nvidia packages any more
[09:01] <NoUse> fatlip just use chmod or chown to change the permssions on the new ext3 drive
[09:01] <timas> DarkRavenMixage: I have all kernels installed, it just wont boot.. it times out on finding my root, thats all I know
[09:01] <timas> uh oh..
[09:01] <NoUse> fatlip probably want to 'sudo chown user:user /media/ext3_mnt_point
[09:01] <timas> this might prove troublesome for me then..
[09:01] <Warbo> xzz: If it is not in /usr/bin then it has a different name (the package is now openoffice, with a version number of 2, rather than a seperate openoffice2 package)
[09:02] <fatlip> thank you :)
[09:02] <NoUse> fatlip or chown -R to do it recursively
[09:02] <krang> onkarshinde: hmm, actually, now that I look, I have gst-register0.8, but no higher
[09:02] <fatlip> its a blank drive so -r i'm guessing is useless
[09:02] <timas> Warbo, DarkRavenMixage, you guys know of any way so I can find out why it wont mount my drive with the newer kernels?
[09:02] <Warbo> pooya: Put a script in /etc/init.d and use the right update-rc.d options to add it to shutdown only
[09:03] <krang> onkarshinde: I'm lost. maybe the functionality is in another tool now
[09:03] <Warbo> timas: Have you checked dmesg after trying?
[09:03] <DarkRavenMixage> timas does x gives you some error?
[09:03] <BCK> if i go to windows and change a partition from ntfs to fat32 will i still be able to boot ubuntu ?
[09:03] <onkarshinde> krang: hmm
[09:03] <DarkRavenMixage> timas you got nvidia card?
[09:03] <timas> Warbo, how do I check the dmesg?
[09:03] <timas> DarkRavenMixage: nope
[09:04] <Warbo> timas: Just type "dmesg" (or maybe "dmesg | tail" to only see the most recent entries)
[09:04] <pianoboy3333> Where can I learn to build the new 2.6.17 kernel?
[09:04] <timas> and I don't get any x errors either, it just times out on finding my root drive and then boots into a mini recovery shell
[09:04] <krang> onkarshinde: apparently it registers plgins automatically as of 0.10
[09:04] <krang> onkarshinde: http://gnomejournal.org/article/37/gstreamer-010---whats-in-it-for-the-users
[09:04] <tonyyarusso> Is it possible to download an iso of Dapper + all updates since release?
[09:04] <timas> Warbo: boot, let it time out and in the shell it gives check dmesg?
[09:04] <Warbo> timas: Ah, it doesn't even find your root drive? Dammit
[09:04] <Spec> What makes 'init' use 99.9% CPU?
[09:04] <Sivik> Warbo: do we know how to tell wine that
[09:04] <onkarshinde> krang: And in my case it seems to have deregistered something.
[09:05] <Warbo> Sivik: Maybe with winecfg
[09:05] <Sivik> ok
[09:05] <tonyyarusso> pianoboy3333: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[09:05] <Warbo> Sivik: Give it the mount points rather than the ISOs
[09:05] <Sivik> ok
[09:05] <Sivik> so i just need to mount the .iso?
[09:05] <AlinuxOS> Hello, how can I see SyStime in terminal mode ?
[09:05] <Warbo> Sivik: Yes, use the "-o loop" option in mount
[09:05] <neutrinomass> tonyyarusso: No, not yet. There is some talk about doing this, but nothign has been done so far ...
[09:06] <Sivik> ok
[09:06] <AlinuxOS> there is command time. but it does different things.
[09:06] <tonyyarusso> neutrinomass: All right.  Hopefully for Edgy then.
[09:06] <timas> AlinuxOS: type 'date' ?
[09:06] <pooya> Warbo, I just want this command to run if I am logged in, i.e. not globally
[09:06] <AlinuxOS> timas, thank yoo!!! ;)
[09:06] <goudkov> is there a link checker like xenu that would run on linux?
[09:06] <timas> My pleasure :)
[09:07] <krang> onkarshinde: Sorry dude, I've no idea.
[09:07] <Warbo> goudkov: Is that for hypertext links? Wget can do that
[09:07] <Sivik> Warbo: so where do i need to mount it?
[09:07] <f0ster> g'afternoon
[09:07] <goudkov> Warbo: yep. i didn't know that wget can signal broken links
[09:07] <Warbo> Sivik: Wherever. (as long as the folder you are mounting to exists)
[09:08] <Sivik> Warbo, ok, after i make iso's, i need to mount those, and then the installer will regonize them?
[09:08] <Warbo> goudkov: It has an option to scour an entire site for every link, and another option to not actually get the file, only check that it is there
[09:08] <timas> warbo: So should I go try dmesg after booting into the -25 kernel?
[09:08] <Warbo> timas: Yes
[09:08] <goudkov> Warbo: ok, thanks. i'll check
[09:09] <timas> Warbo: Any way I can save that data?
[09:09] <Spec> does ubuntu have a utility for reading /var/log/wtmp?
[09:09] <Warbo> Sivik: If you make the ISOs, mount them then tell WINE that those mounted folders are CDROMS then it should work
[09:09] <timas> if it mounts my usb drive I can.. hm
[09:09] <Sivik> ok
[09:09] <Sivik> how do i tell wine that their mounted as cdroms
[09:10] <pse-eh> anyone having problems with kb/mouse input after 5.10->6.06 upgrade?
[09:10] <Warbo> timas: If you have access to your filesystem then you can add a "> /whatever/filename" to dump it's output there. However it sounds like you are only getting access to a busybox shell or something in the initrd (so you may not have access to your filesystem)
[09:10] <chamo> hello
[09:10] <MystaMax> oh my gosh, How do I stop Shift-backspace fro mdoing what it does!?
[09:11] <Warbo> Sivik: It should be somewhere in the WINE registry, and winecfg should be able to add them. I'll check now for you
[09:11] <timas> Warbo: Busybox! thats right, I was thinking blackbox but I knew it wasn't right so refrained from mentioning it.. yikes, no way to save that data then I'm guessing.. ah well I'll go check at least
[09:11] <MystaMax> it seems to be restarting gnome or something
[09:11] <timas> bbiab, I hope ;)
[09:11] <MystaMax> it takes me back to the login manager
[09:12] <oni-dracula> what does it mean when glxgears uses 100% cpu and runs at 1fps?
[09:12] <mukund> foxes are having a wedding? :)
[09:13] <Warbo> Sivik: Sorry, I can't get WineCfg up at the moment, since my new graphics card is giving me a load of errors :(
[09:13] <Sivik> lol
[09:13] <Sivik> thats not fun
[09:13] <Sivik> no*
[09:13] <Sivik> Warbo, what kind of video card
[09:13] <cvasilak> hi installed xgl works fine but nvidia settings don't run saying "ERROR: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display."
[09:13] <Warbo> Sivik: ATI Radeon something or other
[09:13] <Sivik> Warbo: thats no fun, yucky
[09:14] <bipolar> is anyone here using apt-proxy?
[09:14] <Warbo> I'm getting LOADS of lines like this "[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for GenerateMipmapEXT" when I try to run glxinfo and things. Any advice?
[09:15] <Sivik> Warbo: thats weird
[09:15] <Warbo> Sivik: I am not an expert on ATI (although I have become one on Nvidia, since I have experienced pretty much every problem with their drivers that there is over the years)
[09:16] <chamo> why can't I install Ubuntu Dapper Drake on a SATA pc ?!?
[09:16] <Warbo> chamo: Do the drives come up in the installer? Or do they install fine but not bot? What kind of message do they give either way?
[09:16] <Warbo> boot, not bot
[09:17] <chamo> everything goes fine until the install process that hangs at/after HD format
[09:17] <chamo> it just freeze
[09:17] <chamo> I guess I have to either edit the bios or add some parameter to the CD Boot
[09:17] <Warbo> chamo: Try setting up the partitions beforehand, then it shouldn't have to format them
[09:17] <chamo> What tool can I use ? gparted ?
[09:17] <chamo> something like qparted with a Knoppix boot disc ?
[09:18] <Spec> fdisk and mkfs?
[09:18] <Warbo> chamo: I would use fdisk or cfdisk, and mke2fs -j or mkreiserfs since any errors from these would be reported on the command line
[09:18] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone help me with a problem installing bluefish? Here's the error I get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16106
[09:18] <Warbo> mkfs.reiserfs sorry
[09:18] <pequatre> hi. i need some help with an error message when installing my printer (samsung ml-1610)'s drivers. Those are drivers form samsung's website. the install itself goes well but it ends with "Unable to find file 'ppd/fr'Warning: LPP_Init() failed! Waiting 2 seconds...". i've read this has to do with CUPS. anyone has an idea ?
[09:18] <chamo> okay
[09:18] <chamo> Im gonna go try now.
[09:18] <chamo> be right back
[09:19] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, no apt-get?
[09:19] <oni-dracula> Warbo, that error you pasted a bit above confuses my brain.  Since when does glxgears use mipmap technology?  I thought that was for high end games n stuff
[09:20] <mindspit> Can i use ISPconfig to host multiple domains with multiple DynDns addresses ?
[09:20] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: I wanted the newest version
[09:20] <Warbo> oni-dracula: It gives a terminal full of lines with different endings
[09:20] <oni-dracula> fun
[09:20] <oni-dracula> glx makes me cry
[09:21] <onkarshinde> Can anyone help me with playing VCD with totem-gstreamer?
[09:21] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, I think I can help.... let me see.
[09:21] <Warbo> oni-dracula: I am very new to ATI cards, so I don't know if I have set it up right (I basically followed the !ati info, but cleaned up my xorg.conf a bit)
[09:21] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: kk
[09:21] <oni-dracula> heh I'm running an nvidia card and my glx is still screwy
[09:21] <oni-dracula> runs all gl at 1 fps
[09:22] <Warbo> oni-dracula: I could probably help you with that :)
[09:22] <oni-dracula> by all means, Warbo
[09:22] <Ohzie> Hey, does anyone know what xlib-dev packages your need to install in order to compile a kernel module for the nvidia driver?
[09:22] <Warbo> Well first of all do glxinfo (see, even this basic step doesn't work for me!)
[09:23] <Warbo> Ohzie: xlibs-dev only exists for some compatibility reasons and isn't really used (I think)
[09:23] <oni-dracula> glxinfo outputs a nice long bit of output
[09:23] <Warbo> oni-dracula: Check if it says Mesa anywhere
[09:23] <oni-dracula> it does
[09:23] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, Try sudo dpkg -i --force-install bluefish_1.0.5-1_i386.deb
[09:23] <onkarshinde> Can anyone help me with playing VCD with totem-gstreamer?
[09:23] <Warbo> oni-dracula: Then you aren't using your nvidia driver
[09:23] <Albright> My Kubuntu Live CD is hanging on boot. After the progress bar fills up, the screen blacks out, then text flashes on the screen too quickly to read and I'm taken back to the progress bar screen, but with no "Doing this... ok" messages. Nothing happens from there.
[09:23] <oni-dracula> well isn't that nice
[09:23] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: ok
[09:23] <Warbo> oni-dracula: So no wonder glxgears gives 100% CPU at 1fps
[09:23] <Ohzie> Warbo: When you attempt to install the nvidia kernel driver with the dapper kernel, it says there isn't a pre-built module for this kernel, and you need to compile one. It promptly asks you to install xlibs-dev.
[09:24] <fatlip> chown: changing ownership of `/media/backup': Read-only file system
[09:24] <fatlip> i was writing to it fine
[09:24] <fatlip> but now i cant
[09:24] <Warbo> Ohzie: I use module-assistant to build my nvidia modules
[09:24] <Ohzie> module-assist?
[09:24] <Sivik> how do i get wine to regonize a mounted iso as a cdrom drive
[09:24] <NoUse> fatlip 'mount' is it marked rw or ro?
[09:24] <kolaje> Can someone explain to me how to have Ubuntu start in console mode, and manually have X start when necissary?
[09:24] <Warbo> Ohzie: "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-source module-assistant && sudo m-a"
[09:25] <Sivik> kolaje, what video card?
[09:25] <fatlip> what i dont understand is why that suddenly happened
[09:25] <fatlip> it was working fine til i just tried to write to it
[09:25] <Sivik> kolaje, the command is startx
[09:25] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: i think it's --force-overwrite, I don't have a --force-install option
[09:25] <kolaje> Sivik. gforce4 go something something
[09:25] <kolaje> Sivik i know, but i want the computer to start in console mode, instead of X
[09:25] <Warbo> kolaje: Turn off /etc/init.d/gdm symlinks which are in /etc/rcX.d (where X is 0,1,2,3,4,5,6)
[09:25] <fatlip> oh well
[09:25] <a_l_e> ehm ehm... when using or dpackaging java i get an error "libstdc++.so.5" ... a quick locate found "libstdc++.so.6" in my dapper system :-(
[09:25] <Sivik> kolaje, are you trying to install the video drivers from nvidia?
[09:26] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, soory about that, I'm a Debian person. ^^
[09:26] <a_l_e> ... any solution to this mismatch?
[09:26] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: kk
[09:26] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, -f should work on both.
[09:26] <kolaje> Warbo, Sivik, thank you.. and yes, but that's later.. i need to install the proper drivers later
[09:26] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: so, what is the command I should run?
[09:26] <kolaje> Sivik. my laptop has a weird gforce in it, and it wont work with the regular nvidia drivers for some reason
[09:26] <Sivik> kolaje, ok, to get to console from the x, ctrl-alt-f1 and then rund killall gdm
[09:26] <Sivik> run*
[09:27] <Warbo> kolaje: You can probably just change the "S" to a "K" in /etc/rc1.d/S<something>gdm
[09:27] <poje> Is there a lightweight powerpoint viewer for Gnome?  My laptop makes using OOo for just looking at ppts a pain in the ass
[09:27] <oni-dracula> RESTARTING X!! EVERYONE HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS!
[09:27] <gavagai> kolaje, i think you need to remove the /etc/rc#.d link to gdm.. first find out what runlevel you're in.  do:  runlevel
[09:27] <Warbo> poje: Try the standalone viewer from micro$haft in WINE
[09:28] <poje> Warbo: I saw that on my google search but I'd rather not pull out wine just yet
[09:28] <Sivik> poje, try and see if the kde writer has a power point program
[09:28] <poje> I don't even think I have it installed
[09:28] <f0ster> do you think if I had a good 64-bit processor that i'd be able to emulate hl2 through wine adequately?
[09:28] <poje> Sivik: I'm pretty sure that's not installed either
[09:28] <oni-dracula> ok so now glxinfo has Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:28] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, Try sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite bluefish_1.0.5-1_i386.deb
[09:28] <Warbo> poje: There are a few lightweight presentation apps for X and GNOME and KDE (but forget their names) and they MAY have support for powerpoint files
[09:29] <a_l_e> ehm ehm... when using or "make-jpkg"-ing java i get an error "libstdc++.so.5 not found" ... a quick locate found "libstdc++.so.6" in my dapper system :-( is there any workaround?
[09:29] <Daktyls> Has anyone had any problems with Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper on an 80gb Seagate HDD?
[09:29] <mooseman447> hey
[09:29] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: yes, that works fine, thanks
[09:29] <Sivik> poje: google
[09:29] <Warbo> oni-dracula: Is "glx" in your modules list in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? Is the "Driver" in your device section set to "nvidia" instead of "nv"
[09:29] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: I just don't know about wine
[09:29] <oni-dracula> checking
[09:29] <mooseman447> what would you guys recommend for a email setup with smtp and imap
[09:29] <a_l_e> Daktyls: no but i have many problems with dapper on my samsung 80GB :-)
[09:30] <gavagai> kolaje, or sudo apt-get install rcconf.  rcconf will let you control what starts at boot
[09:30] <oni-dracula> the nvconf was supposed to write that to xorg.conf
[09:30] <Warbo> Daktyls: I have owned 2 80GB HDs. They both failed after a few months :(
[09:30] <Daktyls> a_l_e, really? does it freeze every so often?
[09:30] <Daktyls> and just stop responding, the for a second or two respond again?
[09:30] <Daktyls> *then
[09:30] <FeeR^> anyone able to get fancontrol/pwmconfig to work?  i've got fans running at full blast for no reason
[09:30] <a_l_e> Daktyls: no, it doesn't freeze... i just have problems... many. but i hope that they're not hd related!
[09:31] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache should be ok.
[09:31] <Daktyls> a_l_e, ah
[09:31] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, "cat /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache" and paste it into pastebin.
[09:31] <kolaje> ok that took a while to manually copy all of your ideas to vi, thanks guys
[09:31] <Daktyls> Warbo, this harddrive is brand new
[09:31] <Warbo> Daktyls: If it freezes then it may be an IO issue. Turning on DMA speeds up IO
[09:31] <mooseman447> postfix for smtp but what about imap?
[09:31] <kolaje> is there a quicker way to switch between consoles other than alt ctr fx?
[09:31] <Daktyls> well, it works fine under windows, but when I try installing Ubuntu it stops
[09:31] <Warbo> kolaje: Quicker? How could anything be quicker than that? :)
[09:32] <Krhis> lol
[09:32] <Daktyls> freezes for a minute, then responds for a second, and freezes again
[09:32] <Warbo> !dma
[09:32] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[09:32] <poje> Sivik: google isn't giving any really relevant results about kde viewer
[09:32] <kolaje> warbo, i often switch between two, and i was hoping i could set an alt tab like thing :\
[09:32] <Daktyls> hm
[09:32] <pianoboy3333> Krhis: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16108
[09:32] <kolaje> or ctr tab or something
[09:32] <gavagai> kolaje, if you want to start customizing stuff like that just use gnu screen
[09:33] <Sivik> poje, try the ubuntu forums
[09:33] <kolaje> ok thanks guys
[09:33] <Warbo> kolaje: Sorry, I would only be able to offer guesses at doing it in Xorg, so I have no idea about in a console
[09:33] <mooseman447> anybody?
[09:33] <tdn> How to I change my charset to danish iso8859-1?
[09:33] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, it's fine. It was overwritin with somthing new, not removed.
[09:33] <poje> Sivik: that's where I'm headed now
[09:33] <maxkelley> hey, can somebody help me with vncserver? In the logs, I keep getting the error "can't load default font 'fixed'"
[09:33] <onkarshinde> Can someone help me playing VCD with totem-gstreamer in dapper?
[09:33] <kolaje> you're all great :)
[09:33] <Sivik> poje, ok
[09:33] <Krhis> pianoboy3333, looks just like mine too.
[09:33] <thespore> I went to adjust my mouse acceleration in Dapper, and now it is stuck at the lowest setting... no matter what i set it to it goes back to the lowest setting.  How can I fix this.. i look like a retard rolling my mouse all over the place ;)
[09:33] <Daktyls> Warbo, I think that might work, but since it's frozen in the middle of the installation, I can't really fix that
[09:34] <Daktyls> is there a list that tells what harddrives Ubuntu 6.06 supports?
[09:34] <maxkelley> Daktyls: alot :)
[09:34] <Warbo> Daktyls: I don't think so, since pretty much every harddrive uses the same access mechanisms (which Ubuntu can use)
[09:34] <tdn> Right now it is set to UTF.
[09:35] <Daktyls> right, so it's pretty unlikely that the harddrive isn't supported
[09:35] <kolaje> where did the rcconf install to?
[09:35] <kolaje> nevermind, dumb question
[09:35] <Warbo> Daktyls: It would be a list containing: IDE/ATA, SATA, RAID, SCSI, USB (ie. interfaces, not drives)
[09:35] <Warbo> !ati
[09:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:36] <HellDragon> !ati
[09:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:36] <Daktyls> is it possible that ubuntu doesn't support an 80gb drive as the system drive? (probably a sill question, but I want to eliminate the possibility)
[09:36] <neutrinomass> Daktyls: Would be a very rare case ...
[09:36] <Krhis> Daktyls, I've done installs before on 80gb's.
[09:36] <Daktyls> both times during the install, it's frozen during the partition phase
[09:37] <Krhis> No probs.
[09:37] <thespore> Anyone know why mouse settings are defaulting back to the lowest setting?  Is there a way I can edit a config file somehow?
[09:37] <Krhis> Daktyls, what partions are you making?
[09:37] <neutrinomass> Daktyls: That's likely to be a problem in ubiquity (the installer) - try the alternate CD ...
[09:37] <Daktyls> well
[09:37] <a_l_e> Daktyls: i'm working on a 80gb drive!
[09:37] <Daktyls> I installed it fine on two 40 gb harddrives
[09:37] <Warbo> Hmm. Do you HAVE to use the radeon driver for a Radeon 9200? (I mean with regards to fglrx, not ati)
[09:38] <Daktyls> because of that, I was thinking it wasn't the CD
[09:38] <Krhis> a_l_e, I'm working on two RAID'ed 250GB's.
[09:38] <Krhis> ^
[09:38] <Krhis> ^^
[09:38] <Daktyls> Kris: I'm just making the swap file and the linux partition, on the 20gb of unallocated space
[09:38] <Daktyls> er
[09:38] <MystaMax> oh my gosh, How do I stop Shift-backspace from taking me back to the login screen
[09:38] <Daktyls> Krhis
[09:38] <a_l_e> Krhis: can put that raid in my laptop, please?
[09:39] <NoUse> MystaMax read the xgl howtos
[09:39] <Krhis> Daktyls, ok. No /boot partition?
[09:39] <Warbo> MystaMax: Shift backspace does that? It will be in System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts
[09:39] <MystaMax> NoUse, so its XGL related?
[09:39] <thespore> Ok, i'm about to go nuts
[09:39] <Krhis> a_l_e, hehehe, what can I say? I'm a poweruser.
[09:39] <NoUse> MystaMax yeah its a bug in compiz
[09:40] <Daktyls> Krhis, here's the setup, 80gb drive, 60gb with a perfect windows installation (IE no problems, works like a gem), the 20gb of unallocated space, I'm trying to install ubuntu on
[09:40] <Warbo> Right, I'm going to fire up the radeon driver, but I have found it pretty useless in the past
[09:40] <Daktyls> I'm using the same CD I used to install it on 2 other harddrives (with no problem)
[09:40] <MystaMax> NoUse, what howto are you referring to? Thanks for the lead though
[09:40] <a_l_e> Daktyls: but, did you check that you don't have any dma problem?
[09:40] <Daktyls> so I'm having the installed automatically partition the unallocated 20gb
[09:40] <Daktyls> *installer
[09:41] <Krhis> Daktyls, Using ext3?
[09:41] <thespore> will someone please help me figure out why my mouse settings will not save?!  This is ridiculous, I've even tried the ghetto windows solution... restarting. no dice.
[09:41] <Daktyls> a_l_e, it's kinda hard to do that on a frozen machine :b, but I will restart, and using the live CD feature, see if that's okay
[09:41] <NoUse> MystaMax try this ' xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us' if your country code is us of course
[09:41] <Daktyls> Krhis, yup, ext3
[09:41] <MystaMax> NoUse, ok checkin now, brb
[09:41] <a_l_e> Daktyls: check the page about dma you got a link to and check what is in your bios!
[09:41] <Krhis> Daktyls, ok. Ext3 is pretty safe. Just checking you wheren't using Rieser4. O.o
[09:42] <Daktyls> !dma
[09:42] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[09:42] <Daktyls> it's a Dell >_> <_<
[09:42] <Daktyls> it might as well not have a bios
[09:42] <a_l_e> Daktyls: it has it.
[09:42] <MystaMax> NoUse, should I get any feed back? Should I be looking @ this via NANO or gedit?
[09:42] <OniAnubis> All right so does anyone know if the SPARC port supports FC-AL fibre channel devices?
[09:42] <NoUse> MystaMax no just run that
[09:43] <Daktyls> that page doesn't really have anything about Bios
[09:43] <Daktyls> BIOS doesn't have anything about DMA
[09:43] <Krhis> a_l_e, I also have a $400 overclocked GC, 3GB of RAM, and a 20.1" widescreen LCD...... what makes you think I play video games? XD
[09:43] <MystaMax> NoUse, it worked! no more restarting. May I ask what that command did?
[09:44] <NoUse> MystaMax that should fix the problem, you should also add that command to the command tha initializes compiz
[09:44] <NoUse> MystaMax I think it reset X's key bindings
[09:44] <Lisoe2> hi
[09:44] <Krhis> Nvidia card.... to make that clear.
[09:45] <tomplast> hi can anyone help me with getting my webcam working in amsn? when i try to select it in the "configure webcam"  window it just says "error opening device". im a member of video and video has rights on /dev/video0 and /dev/video1.
[09:45] <a_l_e> Krhis: i would have never thought about video games, sorry. never used to. ... sorry.
[09:45] <Lisoe2> my two ext3-formatted partitions are gone from the computer-view, how can i get them back?
[09:45] <a_l_e> but a bigger screen than this 12' ...
[09:45] <Daktyls> in all honesty, I'm stumped by this problem, I guess it's possible that it's DMA but that page says it's automatically enabled for drives that support it
[09:46] <ekate> I am trying to install/run Second Life and I get an error saying that "2006-06-20T19:24:33Z WARNING: Unable to create window, be sure screen is s et at 32-bit color in Control Panels->Display->Settings
[09:46] <ekate> ". I am not sure what video card I have (not my comp) and I am using Dapper, latest version. Is there a way for me to check what my settings are (and consequently, change them)?
[09:46] <Krhis> I did it all for the new Source engine. :(
[09:46] <tomplast> please help me guys. i have tried for weeks now :/
[09:47] <tomplast> it have worked before, and i havent the slightest clue why it wont now :/
[09:47] <Daktyls> okay
[09:47] <Daktyls> so I typed "sudo fdisk -l" hit enter, it gave me the readout, and froze
[09:47] <tomplast> :'(
[09:48] <TwigEther> hey all, currently on step 3 of 6 of the graphical installer, it seems to have frozen and stopped doing anything at all. Anything I can do about it? Is there a text based install that'd work better than this GUI / LiveCD one? My system is a 900mhz celery with 128MB RAM
[09:48] <mindspit> Can i use ISPconfig to host multiple domains in one IP with multiple DynDns addresses ?
[09:48] <Daktyls> it seems any prolonged need to access the harddrive causes a system hang, any ideas?
[09:48] <jrib> TwigEther: yeah, you could try the alternate cd, be sure to burn the iso's at low speeds though (like 2-4x)
[09:48] <tomplast> :(
[09:48] <Krhis> mindspit, I have multiple domains and DynDns.
[09:49] <Krhis> mindspit, just point them all to your box's IP address.
[09:49] <ic56> Daktyls: it could be bad RAM.  boot into memtest and if it finds any problems with your RAM
[09:49] <a_l_e> Daktyls: i just can think about hardware failure or a dma problem
[09:49] <Krhis> mindspit, what are you running? A basic LAMP install?
[09:49] <Daktyls> ic56, RAMs fine
[09:49] <Daktyls> tested that already
[09:49] <TwigEther> okay, I'll have a go with the "alternate" CD. Cheers for the help :)
[09:49] <Daktyls> 4 passes no errors
[09:49] <Daktyls> a_l_e, DMA is on
[09:50] <mindspit> a kubutu 6.06 perfect setup with ISPConfig and so yes a LAMP setup
[09:50] <ic56> Daktyls: bummer. maybe a DMA problem?
[09:50] <pooya> hi, are ther any altervatives to alacarte?
[09:50] <a_l_e> Daktyls: have you tried to lounch the install cd without dma?
[09:50] <Daktyls> how would I do that?
[09:52] <Krhis> Is gnome-volume-manager for audio or media mounting?
[09:52] <a_l_e> Daktyls: i guess something like "ide1=nodma" as boot parameter
[09:52] <thespore> Can someone please please help me?  My mouse acceleration is stuck at the lowest setting.. and i have no idea how to fix it!
[09:52] <a_l_e> ... it's a kernel parameter.
[09:52] <mindspit> how can i make the ISPConfig panel work on these domains for example a.homelinux.org , b.homelinux.org
[09:52] <tdn> How do I set my locale to da_DK?
[09:53] <thespore> the gui mouse configuration allows me to adjust it, hwoever it just goes back to the lowest setting.  can I edit this directly somewhere?
[09:53] <a_l_e> Daktyls: and i would check in the bios, too and deactivate it there to
[09:53] <a_l_e> o
[09:53] <Daktyls> there's no DMA option in the BIOS
[09:54] <Warbo> no
[09:54] <ic56> Daktyls: to confirm, you are able to boot a normal disk-based installed Ubuntu system.  It only hangs when you do some disk-intensive operation. Right?
[09:54] <kolaje> I killed the symlinks in /etc/init.d/gdm, and it does start in console now, but i don't want the ubuntu loading screen to be graphical either, is there a way to get around that, and view the startup in plain text?
[09:54] <tanek> tdn: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales or something like that i think
[09:55] <Warbo> !ati
[09:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:55] <Warbo> Wow, still trying to get used to ircII
[09:55] <kolaje> I killed the symlinks in /etc/init.d/gdm, and it does start in console now, but i don't want the ubuntu loading screen to be graphical either, is there a way to get around that, and view the startup in plain text? (repeating now that warbo is here)
[09:56] <Warbo> kolaje: Take off the "splash" parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:58] <garryF> I reinstalled Ubuntu weeks ago and nickserv said my nick was not mine but when I tried to change it it said it was mine. I had to re-register and it put out my private password out to #ubuntu-unregistered. This is infuriating!! Who or what channel do I go to to deal with this.
[09:58] <[Finn] > is there any GUI for mounting an windows share?
[09:58] <NoUse> !locales
[09:58] <ubotu> To set up and configure your locales, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LocaleConf
[09:58] <NoUse> tdn ^^^
[09:58] <garryF> Not your folkses fault, but if this ever ever happens again I will never ever return.
[09:58] <DrKevorkian> whats a good c++ compilers
[09:58] <garryF> Is the locales thing for me?
[09:58] <NoUse> DrKevorkian g++
[09:59] <a_l_e> garryF: i guess that you haven't understand how an irc channel works :-)
[09:59] <NoUse> DrKevorkian just install 'build-essential'
[09:59] <[Finn] > is there any GUI for mounting an windows share?
[09:59] <a_l_e> (and i guess that i have many problem with typing this evening)
[09:59] <garryF> I did once, I've forgotten, I thought I was not iN a channel
[09:59] <Pelo> afternoon guys,  I am trying to setup a hotmail adress in evolution,  can someone tell me what kind of server I have to use ?
[09:59] <gavagai> garryF, quite a threat!
[09:59] <gavagai> heh
[09:59] <Warbo> !radeon
[09:59] <MystaMax> NoUse, this may not be a viable solution, it seems I can't use any keyboard shortcuts @ all
[09:59] <ubotu> I know nothing about radeon
[10:00] <garryF> suddenly, just when I sent my password, I'm popped into a public channel and my password is sent.
[10:00] <garryF> Don't take it personally, its not your fault.
[10:00] <Warbo> Dammit. I can't get the radeon driver going, modprobe gives me errors (I am in a console so copy/paste is hard :))
[10:00] <NoUse> MystaMax thats the solution for that bug, I don't use xgl so ask for more help in #ubuntu-xgl
[10:00] <Mirith> Hey... question about rename
[10:00] <a_l_e> garryF: probably you typed the password in a channel instead of putting it in a command.
[10:01] <Mirith> say I want to remove some brackets [ or ]  from a file
[10:01] <MystaMax> NoUse, thanks, will do
[10:01] <bipolar> this is weird. I'm using apt-cacher. my laptop works fine with it, but this other machine gets a 500 error even though it's using a copy of the sources.list file.
[10:02] <Warbo> Does anyone know what package the radeon driver is in? xorg-driver-radeon appears in aptitude but is not installable
[10:02] <Jimmey__> Where should I install RealPlayer
[10:02] <garryF> a_l_e LIkely, but I took steps this time to make sure I was not in a channel. I guess I"m too stupid to accompilish that. I did a leave, it did nothing, I did a close and I got out of the channel. Now I got yet another password to write down and ransack the place for when I forget it. LOL
[10:02] <a_l_e> garryF: and if you connect to a irc channel without giving the (correct) password for the nickname (which is the same as your system user name if you didn't change it) you will be told that you don't own the nick. the server has no other meaning to check if you're you.
[10:02] <Warbo> Jimmey__: I would install it to /usr/lib/realplayer. (I use a Debian package of it anyway)
[10:02] <mlndd> Hi, I had a question. I  was considering installing Ubuntu today and downloaded and burned the ISO. While I was booting from the CD, a couple of the bullets didn't read OK as it was loading.  Does this mean that some of my hardware will not be detected if I choose to install.  Everything seemed to work fine when it finally booted up however.
[10:03] <Jimmey__> Warbo, where did you get that?
[10:03] <Pelo> mlndd it is likely that those bullets didn't load ok because those aren'T available as you load from cd
[10:03] <a_l_e> garryF: for typing a command (like setting a password) you have to put a slash at  the beginning of the line (no blanks!). there will be no ouput to the channel you're currently in (except if the command produces an output to the channel like "/me wants some chocolate")
[10:03] <Jimmey__> I have it installed, but when I try to get anything working in Firefox, it says that there was no realplayer or hxplayer found in the system path
[10:04] <Jimmey__> And Helix won't work
[10:04] <gavagai> mlndd, what bullets, if you remember
[10:04] <gavagai> mlndd, that's probably normal
[10:04] <jrib> Mirith: are you familiar with regular expressions?
[10:04] <Warbo> Jimmey__: I added this to my sources.list: "deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ sarge main"
[10:04] <mlndd> the only one i remember was something about raid while i was shutting down
[10:04] <mlndd> there were a couple when it was booting up but they went by pretty quickly
[10:04] <Mirith> jrib: I figured out my problem
[10:04] <Mirith> jrib: I forgot the ' marks
[10:04] <Pelo> mindspit  I don't hve the raid one either, and I am ok
[10:04] <jrib> Mirith: ah ok
[10:04] <mlndd> one of them said hw_random
[10:04] <Jimmey__> Does that sarge package work alright with Ubuntu, Warbo?
[10:04] <mlndd> not sure what that meant
[10:05] <gavagai> mlndd, i wouldn't worry about it, but it's hard to tell
[10:05] <mlndd> are there fixes for most hardware problems?
[10:05] <Warbo> Jimmey__: I only use the flashplayer and realplayer packages from there, and they seem to work OK
[10:05] <garryF> a_l_e I tend to forget to put the slash in. I have never been able to stop it from happening, but this makes the third time I've had to change my system password as a result.
[10:07] <gavagai> mlndd, if it works as a live cd it should be ok
[10:07] <mlndd> ok, thanks
[10:07] <mlndd> also, i wanted to try to dual boot winxp and ubuntu
[10:07] <mlndd> i am going to format my computer
[10:07] <mlndd> is there any difference which i install first?
[10:07] <gavagai> windows first
[10:07] <mlndd> ok, and linux has to go on a different partition?
[10:08] <NoUse> mlndd yes
[10:08] <gavagai> ubuntu will partition it for you.  but yes
[10:08] <mlndd> how much space should i leave for a parition for Ubuntu?
[10:08] <Sivik> how do i view the .wine folder from nautilus
[10:09] <Jimmey__> Warbo - I've already got it installed in /home/user/.RealPlayer, but when I try and play content in Mozilla, it says that there's no realplayer in the system path - What's that all about?
[10:09] <mlndd> i have an 80gb hdd on my laptop
[10:09] <Sivik> nvm
[10:09] <a_l_e> garryF: i think that there is nothing we can do for you, then. ok, yes: just tell us before you type your password and we all will close our eyes :-)
[10:09] <Jimmey__> Sivik: CTRL + H
[10:09] <tibbe> what's the partition scheme used by the installer?
[10:09] <garryF> gavagai I know it was quite an empty threat. :) I just choose to go away instead of dealing with annoying responses to bot attacks that force me to do stuff, I tend to goof up in big ways all the time.
[10:09] <ic56> mlndd: a couple of issues in choosing partitions for a dual boot system:
[10:09] <gavagai> i would leave 6 gigs for / (root) and then whatever is leftover for /home.  also note that linux can safely write to FAT but not necessarily NTFS
[10:09] <tibbe> i.e. how many and what fs?
[10:09] <garryF> LOL a_l_e!!
[10:09] <BrownMan> how do you install whats in a .tar.gz?
[10:09] <JViz> is there a Windows client for XGL like VNC for X-windows?
[10:09] <BrownMan> whats the terminal command
[10:09] <garryF> a_l_e That was great!
[10:10] <ic56> mlndd: first, Windows will want to install itself on an NTFS partition.  These aren't safely writable from Linux.  So make sure to *also* create a FAT32 partition (you can make it from either windows or Linux) to use for exchanging files between the two systems
[10:10] <Warbo> When I do modprobe radeon I get "FATAL: Error inserting radeon (lib/modules/2.6.15-23-k7/kernel/drivers/char/drm/radeon.ko): Cannot allocate memory" and another one about checking dmesg, which gives loads more messages about "Unknown symbol"
[10:10] <NoUse> JViz XGL is just an extension for Xwindows
[10:11] <Warbo> NoUse: AIGLX is an extension, XGL is a different X server
[10:11] <tibbe> would a / partition using ext3 and a 1Gb swap partition (which I could suspend to) work for a dual-booting laptop?
[10:11] <NoUse> Warbo but it uses the X11 prototal
[10:11] <NoUse> Warbo so VNC works
[10:11] <mlndd> ic56: ok, so can i just create a 40gb ntfs partition for windows, and then format another 40gb fat32 partition when windows is installed?
[10:11] <Sivik> mlndd: yes
[10:11] <ic56> mlndd: also, in windows, partition the disk to use the space windows needs and leave the rest of the disk unused. Some people get confused and thing they must partition the entire thing with the first OS that gets installed -- neither OS requires that.
[10:11] <Warbo> NoUse: I would guess it works
[10:11] <mlndd> i would set up the two partitions during the xp setup
[10:12] <ic56> mlndd: yes on 40gb ntfs + 40gb fat32
[10:12] <mlndd> will i be able to access files from both partitions
[10:12] <mlndd> for instance my music collection
[10:13] <JViz> is there a Windows client for either AIGLX or XGL?
[10:13] <Warbo> mlndd: You can access NTFS and FAT from Linux, but you can only write to FAT
[10:13] <gnomefreak> JViz: you might try in #windows
[10:13] <garryF> So where do I go to find out how to get rid of my old ghost Nickname? Its off topic here, I can't find a channel about it, it isn't in alphabetical order.
[10:13] <ic56> mlndd: in windows, your fat32 partition will appear as a drive (D:).  In Linux, it will appear as a filesystem (/dev/hda2, assuming it's on the 2nd parittion of the 1st physical IDE drive)
[10:14] <NoUse> JViz VNC will work
[10:14] <mlndd> ok
[10:14] <gnomefreak> garryF: find a freenode staff if you go to freenode website there is a command that will show you staff online
[10:14] <ic56> mlndd: yes, you'll be able to *read* both windows partitions from Linux, but only the FAT32 one will be writable from Linux.
[10:14] <JViz> NoUse: which client?
[10:14] <mlndd> ok
[10:14] <gnomefreak> !freenode > garryF
[10:14] <NoUse> JViz VNC is a standard, any client
[10:14] <garryF> gnomefreak Thanks!
[10:14] <mlndd> i was told by someone that i need another partition that is twice my ram
[10:14] <mlndd> is that true?
[10:14] <gnomefreak> garryF: your pm has the site
[10:15] <gnomefreak> mlndd: unless 1 gig of mem its common to double ram
[10:15] <NoUse> mlndd no
[10:15] <mlndd> i might have just misunderstoof
[10:15] <ic56> mlndd: eventually, Linux will be able to safely write ntfs (already, you can enable that if feeling adventurous) but for now, it's safest if you only write FAT32.
[10:15] <MonsieurBon> hello
[10:15] <Warbo> mlndd: That is "Swap" and is usually about a GB or less. Set that up in Linux install (it is automatic anyway)
[10:15] <MonsieurBon> does anybody play hattrick?
[10:15] <gnomefreak> mlndd: you dont _need_ a swap but its a very good thing to have
[10:15] <JViz> is there anyone here not trolling?
[10:15] <mlndd> ok, so i don't need to worry about that when i install windows first
[10:16] <mlndd> and then that will be automatic in the linux install?
[10:16] <gnomefreak> JViz: what are you doing here? i saw you ask 1 question about windows
[10:16] <ic56> mlndd: just partition what you need for windows, and then, when installing Linux, you can decide how to partition the remaining unsed space on your drive.  Default ubuntu install will use 2 partitions: root and swap.
[10:16] <NoUse> JViz do you think I'm trolling? I'm telling you any VNC client will work, I did it two days ago
[10:16] <Warbo> mlndd: Yes. Just make 2 partitions and leave some space, then Linux will set up everything it needs (including Swap)
[10:16] <ic56> mlndd: how much RAM in your box?
[10:16] <mlndd> not a lot, 512
[10:16] <gnomefreak> JViz: it seems your the one trolling and i suggest you stop
[10:17] <Warbo> mlndd: Wow, that's loads compared to mine :)
[10:17] <JViz> gnomefreak: wow, no
[10:17] <tibbe> is reiserfs worth running?
[10:17] <gnomefreak> JViz: this is not a debate
[10:17] <JViz> gnomefreak: you're right
[10:17] <mlndd> ok, i think i understand
[10:18] <mlndd> thanks a lot everyone
[10:18] <ic56> mlndd: give your self a swap that between 100 and 500 MB.  The more you give it, the more programs you are allowing yourself to run simultaneously but the more you do that, the slower the system will get.  Ultimately,
[10:18] <bipolar> is anyone here using apt-cacher?
[10:18] <Warbo> Can anyone help me get the radeon driver working? modprobe is giving me errors ("unknown symbol")
[10:18] <ic56> mlndd: you won't find it desirable to use too much swap -- things will just get too slow.  I'd recommend 256 MB
[10:18] <Spaceraverlinux> hey guys... quick question... how do i make my machine boot faster by removing unwanted drivers??
[10:19] <mlndd> ok, thanks
[10:19] <mlndd> i'm going to try to install tonight
[10:19] <mlndd> after i back some more stuff up
[10:19] <ic56> mlndd: yw!  Have fun!
[10:19] <mlndd> oh, one more thing before i go
[10:19] <mlndd> when i booted the cd, for some reason i couldn't play mp3 files
[10:19] <Warbo> !mp3
[10:19] <ubotu> For lots of multimedia issues this page has the useful information you want https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats see also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - Please use free formats, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeFormats
[10:19] <mlndd> is that something that I am going to have to configure later
[10:19] <garryF> Is there an Ubuntu command that when I type say instead of /say at the beginnning of a line a big iron gauntlet with lots of spikes comes out of the screen and slams me in the face? :}
[10:20] <blue-frog> mlndd: yes
[10:20] <Spaceraverlinux> mlndd, ubuntu does not come with restriced formats support...
[10:20] <gnomefreak> garryF: its freenode not ubuntu and you need the / infront or irc doesnt know its a command
[10:21] <Seveas> Any ppc user around willing to help ?
[10:21] <Warbo> mlndd: You can add them afterwards with easyubuntu or something. It is very easy, so you can cross that bridge when you come to it
[10:21] <mlndd> ok, thanks
[10:21] <ic56> mlndd: what Spacesaverlinux means, is that the utilities to play mp3's aren't installed by default.  You can add them after.
[10:21] <ichnicht> tach
[10:21] <Pelo> I have a MP3 player (rca lyra) , is there anyway to set ubuntu so it doesn,t make a trashcan on it ?  I think that caused me some problems yesterday when the files that were playing sudenly cut out to files that were suppose to be erased ?
[10:22] <mlndd> was i supposed to see a command prompt when i booted from the cd?
[10:22] <mlndd> i tried to install macromedia flashplayer and it said i needed to enter something into a command prompt
[10:22] <ichnicht> can someone tell me how I configure my ibook g4 f?r WLan WPA?
[10:22] <garryF> gnomefreak Hehe. I guess until one experiences an enfuriating amount of forgetting the same thing over and over, they willl never understand what it is like.
[10:22] <mlndd> but didn't find one
[10:22] <Warbo> Pelo: I don't know how to disable it's creation, but the trash can is called ".Trash-username" so you can delete that before unmounting it
[10:22] <airboy> hello
[10:22] <airboy> can i setup bind server with one ip so it works as ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com
[10:22] <mlndd> it might just be because i was booting from cd
[10:22] <ic56> mlndd: there are many ways to a command prompt but one isn't displayed by default.
[10:23] <blue-frog> mlndd: after your install, open the "help" menu > system doc > ubuntu desktop guide > common tasks and follow what is written
[10:23] <Spaceraverlinux> mlndd, depends if you used the alternate cd or the "normal" one
[10:23] <maxi_> hello
[10:23] <Pelo> mlndd  to install macromeida flash you are better off using automatix
[10:23] <maxi_> i am new on ubumntu
[10:23] <Pelo> maxi_  welcome
[10:23] <mlndd> what is automatix?
[10:23] <wulax> Pelo: shift+delete
[10:24] <Warbo> mlndd: I would just install Ubuntu first and then sort this stuff out afterwards
[10:24] <NoUse> !automatix
[10:24] <ubotu> automatix is a script that automates installation of some items and has been reported to break your system while doing that, please see http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead.
[10:24] <bipolar> damn apt.conf file, some default in it, was screwing up apt-cacher on this machine. deleting that file got it to work.
[10:24] <Pelo> mlndd  an installer for propiratary stuff like  flash ...
[10:24] <Spaceraverlinux> !tell mlndd about automatix
[10:24] <blue-frog> mlndd: something useless, use the documentation included in ubuntu...
[10:24] <Seveas> Pelo, automatix is bad, please don't recommend it
[10:24] <mlndd> ok, thanks a lot everyone
[10:24] <mlndd> i'm going to install tonight, play around with it
[10:24] <mlndd> and i'll come back if i have any more questions
[10:24] <blue-frog> mlndd: that way you will learn how to use ubuntu
[10:24] <mlndd> thanks a lot for everyone's help
[10:24] <Pelo> Seveas  enlighten me , what is bad about it ?
[10:25] <Seveas> Pelo, hundreds if not thousands of people had to reinstall after using it. 'nuff said...
[10:26] <Pelo> wulax  what does shift+delete do ?
[10:26] <Seveas> Any ppc user around willing to help me with something?
[10:26] <Spaceraverlinux> Seveas, it has worked for me tbh...
[10:26] <Seveas> !sense
[10:26] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[10:26] <garryF> I might have been one of them, but I'm not sure the problem lies with Automatic or with my dead gnat's attention span.
[10:27] <wulax> Pelo: erase files permanently w/o moving to trashcan
[10:27] <garryF> As witness my horrible spelling of automatix
[10:27] <Pelo> wulax thanks that will; probably be helpfull
[10:27] <wulax> Pelo: in Nautilus that is
[10:27] <gdb> If you want something quick and dirty to get propreitary codecs, media players, java, etc, check to easyubuntu.
[10:27] <gdb> The guys that maintain it are over in the #easyubuntu channel, too.
[10:28] <Spaceraverlinux> heh... i dont know what ver i installed... but that did not break the systems
[10:28] <gdb> check out easyubuntu, rather
[10:28] <garryF> I'm going to go away, I can tell, I'm not in a good mood and you folks don't deserve to have to listen to me rant. Later, enjoy and yep. I liked EasyBuntu.
[10:28] <Spaceraverlinux> actually doesnt matter as long as it works..
[10:28] <garryF> Will be back when I'm in my right mind again.
[10:29] <NoUse> Spaceraverlinux but thats the thing, it doesn't work for a lot of people, I've seen many of them here
[10:29] <tanek> hi! i cant seem to get my fglrx driver working, ive followed the wiki, but when i do fglrxinfo i get:X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)

[10:33] <[666] CortexX> Hi ! I'am looking for help
[10:33] <jelabarre> I'm trying to find a way to view images on my Clie PEG-SJ22.  At one point I had been able to make .prc files to use with PC Pocket, but it seems the Ubuntu version of ImageMagick is missing all it's conversion libraries, and I can no longer convert images.  Is there some place to get a *Working* version of ImageMagick/convert, or perhaps some other app that is able to do the job?
[10:33] <NoUse> tanek can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[10:34] <Seveas> ic56, ping

[10:41] <Spaceraverlinux> ask Sir_Sid[Lappy] 
[10:41] <NoUse> MystaMax cool thanks

[10:41] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > When I try to watch a flash video it says I dont have java script installed
[10:41] <Krhis> Is gnome-volume-manager for audio or for media mounting?
[10:41] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > or the wrong version of flash
[10:42] <NoUse> tanek doesn't it have an uninstall script?
[10:42] <Spaceraverlinux> you need to install java seperately Sir_Sid[Lappy] 
[10:42] <tanek> not one that i have
[10:42] <lab> Anyone know why linux will not mount my NTFS drives, but they work fine under windows
[10:42] <tanek> i will check ati.com for one
[10:42] <yanis> it's the second time I have the same problem with apt-get.everything I do it warnes me : E: The package libhtml-template-expr-perl is not ok and I don't know how to fix it!
[10:42] <tanek> sec
[10:42] <NoUse> lab what error do you get when trying to mount it?
[10:42] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > sorry not java
[10:43] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > it was Javascript
[10:43] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > but its enabled
[10:43] <NoUse> tanek this is one of the reason I stopped buying ATI stuff, their drivers suck ;-)
[10:43] <ic56> lab: point your browser to http://ca.geocities.com/ic56@rogers.com/65/diskmounter-latest.txt Page down to "Instructions", and read till the next blank line.  Follow the instructions to save and run the file.  It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer.
[10:43] <lab> NoUse: The device /dev/hdb1 doesn't exist
[10:43] <ic56> lab: The script will ask you if you want to enable NTFS write.  Answer no.  If you already tried unsuccessfully to add your Windows filesystems to /etc/fstab , add a -b flag to the script invocation.  I authored this version, so I can help if anything goes wrong.
[10:43] <NoUse> lab what kind of HD is it? SATA?

[10:45] <jelabarre> If there's not a non-broken version of imagemagick, is there someplace I can get information other than the un-searchable mailman archives on imagemagick.org?
[10:46] <Spaceraverlinux> hmm... gotta step back on that one... havent had that error yet Sir_Sid[Lappy] 
[10:46] <lab> NoUse: PasteBin ...
[10:46] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Spaceraverlinux I think I know why
[10:46] <tonyyarusso> When I switch from Gnome to a tty, the system sort of freezes up for a moment, noticable in things like if I have music playing it will skip.  Any way to avoid this?
[10:46] <NoUse> lab yes
[10:46] <NoUse> !pastebin
[10:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org

[10:48] <NoUse> lab what did you use to paritition this disk?
[10:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Ok Im going to place the plugin in there manually
[10:48] <lab> NoUse: Umm .. it's been partitioned like this for 4+ years .. I think I used Partition Magic

[10:49] <lab> NoUse: refresh the paste I sent earlier
[10:49] <larson9999> i have a computer on which i install bb a few months ago.  afterwards i reformatted it's hd and set it up to dual boot xp/mandriva.  everything works perfectly.  the problem is i want to switch all the computers to ubuntu but the install cd doesn't recognize any of the ide drives... hd or cd so it won't install

[10:51] <jelabarre> Grisbi, Guncash, KMyMoney
[10:51] <jdmpike> http://www.gnucash.org
[10:51] <larson9999> if i install bb and then try to upgrade to dapper, do you think it'll have the same issue and the install cd?  btw, the live cd has the same issue. same cd works fine on all my other pcs
[10:51] <woodwizzle> ooh, neat I'll check that out
[10:52] <halitus> morning all
[10:52] <larson9999> woodwizzle: there is also a java program that will work on multiple platforms but i forgot it's name
[10:52] <KenSentMe> halitus: i was just going to bed
[10:52] <halitus> im just geting out
[10:52] <Sivik> anyone here play nwn with the linux client

[10:53] <jdmpike> I am trying to download the new patch... it is ridiculous
[10:53] <NoUse> lab I'm not sure, see if partition magic has a scan it can run or something
[10:54] <tanek> !ati
[10:54] <lab> NoUse: Thanks .. I'll give it a shot
[10:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:54] <mattwestm> umm, my system clock is set to my local time, but my ubuntu clock appears 4 hours before. What could be the problem?
[10:54] <simian__>  i nearly cried when sweeden just got that last goal :(
[10:54] <larson9999> nouse.  i used qtparted(i think that's the name) to recover partition tables about 1 year or so ago.  worked great and was relatively easy to do
[10:54] <halitus> hey does anyone think they could help me out with some realy weird mouse problems i am having  or could u point me somewhere else??
[10:54] <NoUse> lab ^^^
[10:54] <lab> NoUse: Once I get this fixed, do you trust the NTFS drivers for read/write ?
[10:54] <Snurf> I am running Ubuntu with GNOME, and when i go System, Preferences, Screen Resolution, only one resolution is in the list.. and I know my screen can handle more than 1024x768.. Is there a fix to this?
[10:54] <NoUse> lab no
[10:54] <dooglus> simian__: it doesn't matter.
[10:55] <lab> larson9999: Without Data corruption ?
[10:55] <simian__> dooglus: i know
[10:55] <larson9999> lab if there was data corruption, i haven't noticed it yet :)
[10:55] <ardchoille> Snurf: yes, tweak your xorg.conf
[10:55] <webguy> should imap_open() work with the standard ubuntu setup?
[10:55] <woodwizzle> The great thing about quicken and MS money is that they can get data directly from bank websites. Does grisbi or gnucash do that?
[10:55] <ardchoille> !resolution
[10:55] <Snurf> Can you tell me how to do that?
[10:55] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:55] <tonyyarusso> What would be a good (gui preferred) tool for converting wma to mp3/aac/ogg?
[10:55] <dooglus> simian__: at least we don't have to play Germany next :)
[10:56] <HellDragon> no matter why there will always be somebody here for you , dooglus
[10:56] <ardchoille> Snurf: see ubotu's last post
[10:56] <simian__> dooglus: exactly
[10:56] <Snurf> THanks
[10:57] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > how do I get permission to place files into a folder
[10:57] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : use sudo
[10:57] <lab> How safe is it to convert from NTFS to EXT3 with Gparted?
[10:57] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > is there a command I use
[10:57] <larson9999> NoUse: also in case you want to resize, copy, move partions around including ntfs, i'd try gparted live cd.  it is so easy and handles ntfs quite well.  use version 2.4 or better
[10:57] <larson9999> lab: just posted.  i've used it on quite a bit of ntfs partitions to resize, move, copy, etc and haven't had any issues.
[10:57] <freezombie> where is a good place to set environment variable to be present when a desktop session (Gnome, but that might change) is started ?
[10:58] <dooglus> freezombie: ~/.xprofile
[10:58] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : sudo cp /path/to/source/file /path/to/target/dir
[10:58] <lab> larson9999: putting 80GB of Television on the line lol
[10:58] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > thank you
[10:58] <freezombie> dooglus, that is sourced somewhere, right ?
[10:58] <dooglus> freezombie: that works so long as you use ubuntu's gdm
[10:58] <NoUse> larson9999 yeah I've used it
[10:58] <Pelo> ok this is interesting, my dl/ul speeds on the graph are in the negative range
[10:58] <freezombie> dooglus, thanks .
[10:58] <dooglus> freezombie: it's sourced in /etc/gdm
[10:59] <dooglus> freezombie: um - I hit return too early
[10:59] <webguy> should the php function imap_open() work with the standard ubuntu setup?
[10:59] <halitus> pelo: thats a bit worring
[10:59] <Pelo> woops , wrong channel
[10:59] <matthew_w> which repository is mplayer in
[10:59] <tonyyarusso> matthew_w: multiverse
[11:00] <matthew_w> grr, I added that, but still can't find it *shakes fist*
[11:00] <Spaceraverlinux> wierd... after changing the kernel to the 686 one on the intel box... synaptic makes x restart
[11:00] <stjepan> hi
[11:00] <webguy> should the php function imap_open() work with the standard ubuntu setup?  anyone?
[11:00] <halitus> has any one had werid problems with a mouse scrolling up when u move it in any direction?
[11:01] <stjepan> I disabled some services at boot. Now usplash's progressbar finishes somewhere about 75%. It doesnt go to 100% when it starts all services. How to fix this?
[11:01] <dooglus> freezombie: it's sourced in /etc/gdm/Xsession.  If you're always going to use GNOME, then ~/.gnomerc can be used instead - that'll work if you switch to a different distro, whereas ~/.xprofile is ubuntu-specific
[11:01] <matthew_w> tonyyarusso, it says "depends libfaac0 but it is not going to be installed"
[11:01] <gi2k15> is there a program where I can monitor the overall download and upload speed of my connection?
[11:01] <mattwestm> how can I tell if I clock is set to UMT?
[11:01] <ardchoille> is there a command line app that shows services?
[11:02] <dooglus> mattwestm: there's UTC=??? in /etc/default/rcS
[11:02] <matthew_w> Which repo is libfaac0 in?
[11:02] <Sivik> anyone play nwn with the linux client?
[11:02] <tonyyarusso> matthew_w: Maybe try adding that package to the line manually.  Also, there's a factoid for !mplayer, so maybe that has some insights.
[11:02] <mjr> Sivik, yes
[11:02] <mjr> works fince
[11:03] <mjr> fine
[11:03] <Sivik> mjr: must be nice
[11:03] <dooglus> ardchoille: sysv-rc-conf
[11:03] <matthew_w> !mplayer
[11:03] <Seveas> webguy, you may need to install php5-imap
[11:03] <ubotu> No fonts in mplayer? Install mplayer fonts. Codecs: see !codecs
[11:03] <Sivik> mjr: i installed the 1.67 patch, and it won't load, i get a segmentation fault
[11:03] <webguy> can i install php5imap Seveas without reinstalling php?
[11:03] <Sivik> mjr: the screen goes black, and then it dies
[11:03] <Seveas> webguy, sure
[11:04] <ardchoille> dooglus: That's the one, thanks :)
[11:04] <webguy> K thanks Seveas i will look into it!
[11:04] <matthew_w> I can't find libfaac0 anywhere
[11:04] <buggzero> whats a good RSS and Podcast application
[11:04] <matthew_w> this is annoying X_X
[11:04] <Sivik> mjr: can you help me
[11:05] <smev9_> why cant i insall wine.   ... 64bit issue, stupid user fault, i dont know
[11:05] <Sivik> smev9_: in order to install wine, you have to have the 32 bit libraries and the kernel have the ability to run 64 and 32
[11:05] <spikeb> matthew_w: it's in universe
[11:05] <buggzero> RSS App!
[11:05] <matthew_w> When you try to install libfaac0 is says depends libc6 2.3.66 but 2.3.6-0ubuntu20 is to be installed
[11:06] <Sivik> mjr: you around?
[11:06] <ardchoille> matthew_w: libfaac0 is in multiverse repo
[11:06] <smev9_> okay, thanks, and how do i do that it can run both?
[11:06] <Seveas> buggzero, liferea
[11:06] <mindspit> can i install internet explorer in ubuntu with wine ?
[11:06] <matthew_w> Ok,  it won't install
[11:06] <spikeb> mindspit: yeah
[11:07] <dustin_> Well that sucks .. Gparted just wiped 80GB of TV/Movies
[11:07] <smev9_> Sivik: Would u give me a hint, how to enable the kernel to run 32bit as well
[11:07] <Sivik> smev9_, not sure how to do it, but thats what you have to do
[11:07] <buggzero> lifera? Seveas - is that on sourceforge?
[11:07] <Sivik> go to #winehq
[11:07] <matthew_w> So here's a conundrum, how do I install mplayer if it can't install libfaac0 because the version of libc6 is incompatible?
[11:07] <peter> how can I change the language for one user?
[11:08] <Seveas> buggzero, sudo apt-get install liferea
[11:08] <spikeb> hmm
[11:08] <lab> larson9999: I wouldn't tell people to use gparted
[11:08] <lab> NoUse: same
[11:08] <spikeb> matthew_w: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[11:08] <Seveas> peter, choose that language when logging in
[11:08] <smev9_> Sivik: Thank you, i will try to find out
[11:08] <larson9999> lab: why not?
[11:08] <lab> larson9999: it just wiped me 80GB
[11:08] <matthew_w> Dapper 6.10
[11:08] <lab> larson9999: lost tons of data
[11:08] <spikeb> wierd
[11:08] <smev9_> And i begin to hate the number 64
[11:08] <Sivik> smev9_, yw
[11:08] <cytrak> does ubuntu have the bridge crctl command ?
[11:09] <larson9999> lab i've used it to resize 50+ ntfs partitions with no problems whatsover
[11:09] <tonyyarusso> matthew_w: Dapper is 6.06.  Edgy is 6.10.
[11:09] <cytrak> brcrtl command ?
[11:09] <matthew_w> tonyyarusso, ... give me a sec.
[11:09] <Warbo> OK I am getting annoyed now. How do I get out of 640x480? I've tried loads of stuff and I am at a loss
[11:09] <siriusnova> anyone here running AIGLX ?
[11:09] <spikeb> if you're running edgy, then that's why nothing works heh
[11:09] <matthew_w> Yeah it's 6.06
[11:09] <matthew_w> I'm just a dumbarse
[11:09] <smev9_> Warbo: What graficcard?
[11:09] <Warbo> smev9_: Radeon 9200 with radeon driver
[11:09] <spikeb> matthew_w: weird - i was able to install libfaac0 without any problems
[11:09] <linux1> any here know how to remove the annoying pops when runing azurues
[11:10] <matthew_w> How would I fix this? X_X
[11:10] <smev9_> have u followed instructions of the help file?
[11:10] <smev9_> or used easyubuntu ? hehe
[11:10] <smev9_> linux1: i had the same problem
[11:10] <Jimmey__> Warbo: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:10] <larson9999> lab: and at work it's been used on lots of laptops to resize existing ntfs partitions so a 2nd partition can be created.
[11:10] <Snurf> I did sudo ddcprobe and got the results, and it says to find the HorizSync and VertRefresh values but I have no clue what these are.. The results from the ddcprobe are at http://rafb.net/paste/results/5YiFmn96.txt
[11:10] <Warbo> Jimmey__: That doesn't give radeon as an option, only ati and fglrx
[11:11] <lab> larson9999: well man .. I converted from NTFS to EXT3 and it wiped the drive
[11:11] <spikeb> heh
[11:11] <lab> larson9999: never told me it was gonna format or anything of the sortsd
[11:11] <dooglus> is there some way to reinstall a package I originally installed from a .deb file?
[11:11] <eigenlambda> lab: ...
[11:11] <Seveas> dooglus, dpkg -i file.deb
[11:11] <matthew_w> Ug, I need this file x-x
[11:11] <Seveas> (really)
[11:11] <Warbo> dooglus: Remove it the regular way with synaptic then reinstall it with dpkg or gdebi
[11:11] <matthew_w> Why won't it work?
[11:11] <eigenlambda> lab: ...theres your mistake.  you should have converted to reiserfs
[11:11] <smev9_> isnt fglrx the right driver?
[11:11] <dooglus> Seveas: it's already installed.  I don't think -i is reinstalling it.
[11:12] <spikeb> you already know why it won't work :P
[11:12] <larson9999> lab: converted?  what do you mean by converted?  if you tell it you want it to be ext3 and it isn't now, it's going to reformat it. that's what it's supposed to do.  you have to create a new parition and copy data from the old
[11:12] <matthew_w> I don't get this, I just installed from the cd, updated all of the updates it told me to get etc.  but now it won't install libfaac0
[11:12] <dooglus> Warbo: I can't remove it, because of dependencies
[11:12] <linux1> ok thanks smev9 ,ok next question is there another bittorrent client that to can turn off dht
[11:12] <Seveas> dooglus, dpkg -P --force-depends
[11:12] <larson9999> lab, you might be able to recover the old partition table and get your data back
[11:12] <Seveas> and then dpkg -i
[11:12] <lab> larson9999: recommendation?
[11:12] <Warbo> smev9_: fglrx doesn't give me 3D acceleration, and I would prefer radeon anyway
[11:12] <matthew_w> Is there a way to force it to install ?
[11:12] <eigenlambda> ya i hate java as much as the nxt linux user but azureus is the best bittorrent client out there, despite being java
[11:13] <smev9_> linux1: not sure bittorando, ithink google has answers try wikipedia
[11:13] <lab> eigenlambda: what about uTorrent?
[11:13] <larson9999> lab search for partition recovery on google.  it was a long time ago when i did it.  or maybe someone else here knows off the top of his head
[11:13] <P0ldy> lab, it's not available for Linux
[11:13] <eigenlambda> whats that?
[11:13] <matthew_w> Or is that a bug in ubuntu?  It can't install libfaac0 because the ubuntu libct6 apparently does not meet the reqs for libfaac0
[11:13] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Ok im trying to tell the installer to place the plugins in a folder but the installer keeps telling me that the path is not valid. Im using the path "/usr/lib/firefox/plugins"
[11:13] <OneSeventeen> how can I make a drive image of a partition that I cannot mount?
[11:13] <webguy> Seveas: after i apt-get install php5-imap do i need to restart apache or something?
[11:13] <eigenlambda> oh rite, the first proprietary torrent programm
[11:13] <Warbo> OneSeventeen: "man dd"
[11:13] <lab> P0ldy: True .. with Wine it runs alright
[11:13] <spikeb> matthew_w: it sounds like a broken package
[11:13] <OneSeventeen> Warbo, thanks I'll check it out.
[11:13] <larson9999> lab, i was going to ask you what you mean by convert but got pulled away.  i was hoping you didn't mean what you did :)
[11:13] <smev9_> well, after a restart, it should
[11:13] <Seveas> webguy, yes
[11:14] <matthew_w> spikeb; ok, so how do I get mplayer, then
[11:14] <webguy> only apache or is there anything else that will need to be restarted?
[11:14] <Warbo> smev9_: Was that for me?
[11:14] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] >  im trying to tell the flash installer to place the plugins in a folder but the installer keeps telling me that the path is not valid. Im using the path "/usr/lib/firefox/plugins"
[11:14] <spikeb> matthew_w: using the packages (that are broken it looks like)
[11:14] <spikeb> heh
[11:14] <smev9_> Warbo: yep
[11:14] <cytrak> which files do I use to load modules during boot time ?
[11:14] <matthew_w> spikeb; is there no other way?
[11:14] <lab> larson9999: bbl in windows
[11:15] <OneSeventeen> are there any good gui's for man?
[11:15] <Snurf> Any help for my Question?
[11:15] <spikeb> matthew_w: well, ideally there should be a way to rectify the problem you are experiencing with the packages
[11:15] <cytrak> .. /etc/modules.conf doesn't seem to load
[11:15] <dooglus> Seveas: I beg your pardon...  dpkg -i *is* reinstalling after all.  but for some reason the package still isn't working.
[11:15] <spikeb> matthew_w: unfortunately for you, i'm a retard when it comes to that, and will be of no help
[11:15] <buggzero> Seveas - does this do podcasts
[11:15] <Warbo> smev9_: Would be pretty stupid if it did, but I still prefer to use the radeon driver. I have 3D acceleration, but just a crappy resolution
[11:15] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : does /usr/lib/firefox/plugins dir exist on that system?
[11:15] <Seveas> dooglus, *that* is a different problem ;)
[11:15] <Seveas> buggzero, it should
[11:15] <MarkAngels> Hi, I just installed Dapper on my Thinkpad. I'm trying to apt-get kde but everything has frozen. It's stopped at "Unpacking klipper". There is no mouse. What do I do?
[11:16] <spikeb> MarkAngels: try pressing control alt delete to kill the gui
[11:16] <smev9_> Warbo: How much?
[11:16] <Warbo> MarkAngels: Try pressing ctrl-alt-f1
[11:16] <P0ldy> OneSeventeen, System > Help > System Documentation
[11:16] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > ardchiolle, yes
[11:16] <MarkAngels> Warbo: ok, nothing happens
[11:16] <spikeb> wow, you really are locked
[11:16] <Warbo> MarkAngels: Hmm. Is everything locked up?
[11:16] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > ardchiolle, Im draggn and dropping the folder into terminal too and its placing the exact same line
[11:17] <MarkAngels> Nothing happens on crtl+alt+f1 or del
[11:17] <matthew_w> Why is it that this happens, when everyone else can do it, is there some package i'
[11:17] <matthew_w> am missing/?
[11:17] <OneSeventeen> P0ldy awsome!
[11:17] <smev9_> how can i emulate me 32bit in 64bitubuntu
[11:17] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : what's the exact error it gives?
[11:17] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Please enter a valid installation path
[11:17] <Chri[s] > you dont need to emulate 32bit in 64bit
[11:18] <eigenlambda> lol @ folderz.
[11:18] <Warbo> MarkAngels: I would suggest pressing the power button to initiate a shutdown, but thanks to a Dapper "feature" that now launches the logout dialog (in other words, it will not help you)
[11:18] <erUSUL> smev9_: how "emulate"? what do you mean?
[11:18] <smev9_> and how do i install wine in 64 bit instead
[11:18] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Here is a copy of what is in terminal
[11:18] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Please enter the installation path of the Mozilla, Netscape,
[11:18] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > or Opera browser (i.e., /usr/lib/mozilla): /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[11:18] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > WARNING: Please enter a valid installation path.
[11:18] <spikeb> there's no 64bit wine.
[11:18] <eigenlambda> Warbo: I like that feature!
[11:18] <MarkAngels> Warbo: Still nothing
[11:18] <smev9_> that meaning i cant run wine cause im 64 bit?
[11:18] <eigenlambda> MarkAngels: I would suggest logging in from your other computer and running 'sudo init 0'
[11:18] <matthew_w> Is there some way to FORCE mplayer to install even though the packages clearly conflict with one another?
[11:19] <tonyyarusso> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-firefox/plugins, iirs
[11:19] <tonyyarusso> *iirc
[11:19] <spikeb> smev9_: you need to either do a chroot (which sucks) or use the 32bit version of ubuntu
[11:19] <spikeb> smev9_: or wait until ubuntu goes biarch
[11:19] <Warbo> smev9_: You do not need to emulate 32bit x86 code on a 64bit x86. If you are not on x86 then you need an emulator like bochs or, even better qemu's userspace emulation, to use WINE
[11:19] <spikeb> heh
[11:19] <dooglus> matthew_w: which version of ubuntu do you have?
[11:19] <bitlooter> does any one know if the 2.6.17.1 kernel is available for ubuntu? and if it is how do I install it?
[11:19] <smev9_> i hate 63,33 bit more and more every day
[11:19] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : try /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
[11:19] <Warbo> bitlooter: Not yet. Why do you want it?
[11:19] <dooglus> matthew_w: I've never seen mplayer conflict with anything, and I've run versions 5.04, 5.10, 6.06 and 6.10
[11:20] <bitlooter> for the 3comm drivers
[11:20] <MarkAngels> eigenlambda: I'm at a friends house and only have one internet connection. No hub or switch
[11:20] <spikeb> smev9_: back up your data and install the 32bit version of ubuntu then!
[11:20] <spikeb> smev9_: it works liek a charm.
[11:20] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > same error
[11:20] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : are you using sudo for this?
[11:20] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > yes i am
[11:21] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : so you ran the installer using sudo?
[11:21] <smev9_> but habe to run 64 bit, it looks so ... special    ;)
[11:21] <smev9_> habe=have
[11:21] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Yes and it even mentioned im a root user
[11:21] <spikeb> heh
[11:21] <spikeb> bah
[11:21] <matthew_w> dooglus; 6.06 dapper
[11:21] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : that's odd
[11:21] <MarkAngels> Is there any other key command I can use to try to bring the thinkpad to life or should I power off?
[11:21] <dooglus> matthew_w: and what is the conflict you see?
[11:21] <djk_> Seveas: would you happen to know how to delete a launchpad account?
[11:22] <Warbo> !radeon
[11:22] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : did you try /usr/lib/firefox
[11:22] <ubotu> I know nothing about radeon
[11:22] <Warbo> hmmm.....
[11:22] <matthew_w> dooglus, I try to install mplayer, it says depends libfaac0, which dedpends libc6 2.3.6-6 but lib libc6 2.3.6-ubuntu20 is to be installed
[11:22] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > yes
[11:22] <smev9_> !qemu
[11:22] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[11:22] <Warbo> AAA! Why put WinXP in the Qemu info?
[11:23] <matthew_w> dooglus; any idea?
[11:23] <Seveas> djk_, launchpad is like hotel california
[11:23] <smev9_> Warbo: Whats the problem. XP is such a cool os ;)
[11:23] <djk_> Seveas: it sucks, yet is popular?
[11:23] <dooglus> matthew_w: which repository are you using for mplayer?  the official 'multiverse' one?
[11:24] <Warbo> smev9_: If someone wants to use non-free XP then they may as well use non-free VMWare which is faster than qemu
[11:24] <mnvl> what's the package name of GNU emacs?
[11:24] <BrownMan> Any fans of the Banshee music player that are willing to write an GNOME panel applet for it?
[11:24] <matthew_w> dooglus; yes, I uncommented the thing in /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:24] <bartmaniac> hello, what tool do I need to use so I can format my sandisk cruzer mini  512MB usb-stick?
[11:24] <Seveas> djk_, rofl, no, i mean:  You can check out any time you lik, but, you can never leave 
[11:24] <bartmaniac> I want to do this under ubuntu 6.06
[11:24] <Warbo> bartmaniac: "mkfs.vfat /dev/whateverpartitionisonyourstick"
[11:25] <djk_> Seveas: mmh, but why?
[11:25] <Warbo> bartmaniac: with sudo in front
[11:25] <Seveas> djk_, database constraints
[11:25] <bartmaniac> warbo: thanks
[11:26] <dooglus> matthew_w: let me try.
[11:26] <MarkAngels> I did a hard reset and booted Ubuntu again. I suppose I have a broken KDE since it died in mid-install. How do I fix it? Another apt-get install?
[11:26] <djk_> Seveas: So I'm pretty much screwed if I should get spammed because my email can be found there?
[11:26] <h4v0k> can someone tell me where to find the c++ compiler
[11:27] <LeaChim> MarkAngels, apt-get -f install
[11:27] <Seveas> djk_, you can change your e-mail to a throwaway gmail account
[11:27] <Warbo> *sigh* I give up. I will actually reboot, although it shouldn't do anything
[11:27] <dooglus> mnvl: "emacs21"
[11:27] <cute_bettong> er!hardware
[11:27] <mnvl> thx dooglus

[11:27] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:27] <bartmaniac> Warbo: one more question: do I need to unmount the stick first?
[11:27] <charlesg3> anyone familiar with installing directfb? I keep getting "could not initialize layers core' when trying to run a directfb application
[11:28] <MarkAngels> LeaChim: ok, will try
[11:28] <chamo> worked
[11:28] <h4v0k> where can i find the c++ compiler on ubuntu
[11:28] <h4v0k> i found python
[11:28] <djk_> Seveas: seems like a workaround but will do I suppose :(
[11:28] <bbrazil> h4v0k: apt-get install build-essential
[11:28] <bbrazil> h4v0k: g++
[11:28] <h4v0k> bbrazil ty
[11:29] <dooglus> matthew_w: libfaac0 depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.4-1), so libc6 2.3.6-0ubuntu20 should be fine with it.
[11:29] <Seveas> djk_, fwiw: e-mailaddresses are only shown if you are logged in
[11:29] <dooglus> matthew_w: try "sudo apt-get install libfaac0" and tell me what, if anything, it complains about
[11:30] <smev9_> i have to have the kernel source, where do i find it?
[11:30] <djk_> Seveas: thank you
[11:30] <h4v0k> bbrazil whats the command to check disk usage i cant remember it
[11:30] <peter> thanks, ubuntu is now running in French
[11:30] <peter> ;)
[11:30] <OneSeventeen> I'm trying to use dd to copy a partition of my drive, but I need to copy the partition to a FAT partition, so there is a 4GB file size limit.  How can I copy 40GB of data to a FAT partition with dd (or something similar)?
[11:31] <bthornton> Anybody have SWAT working in Dapper?
[11:31] <OneSeventeen> (meaning, can I use dd to separate it into chunks... man dd didn't help me much)
[11:31] <bthornton> using xinetd--not inetd.
[11:31] <Warbo> Still stuck in 640x480
[11:31] <charlesg3> how small can a gnome installation be?
[11:31] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: use dd piped into split to split the data into 1 gig pieces
[11:32] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: dd if=/whatever | split -b 1024m
[11:32] <smev9_> Warbo: When installing the driver, are you prompted to give info about graka and monitor and such?
[11:33] <Warbo> smev9_: nope
[11:33] <plop> hi
[11:33] <h4v0k> g++: no input files
[11:33] <[Wiebel] > hmmz
[11:33] <[Wiebel] > what could cause this:
[11:33] <[Wiebel] > ipw2100: Fatal interrupt. Scheduling firmware restart.
[11:33] <sime> I have a dpkg error and I dont know how to resolve it: dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 21326 package `libgksuui1.0-0':
[11:33] <sime>  `Conflicts' field, reference to `gksu': error in version: version string is empty
[11:33] <h4v0k> ok how do i run g++
[11:33] <OneSeventeen> dooglus: thanks!  I'm assuming I could do something like dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/path/to/output | split -b 1024m ??  or does it ask me where to put each segment?
[11:34] <smev9_> Warbo: Didnt u use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:34] <Warbo> smev9_: That doesn't give radeon as an option
[11:34] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: if you specify "of", it will write to that file rather than standard output, so nothing will reach split.  the point is to omit the of= bit, then it will send the output to split
[11:34] <bthornton> Anybody know of some sort of graphical configuration tool for Samba on Dapper?
[11:35] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: split will write to the current directory, into files called xaa, xab, xac, ..., xaz, xba, xbb, ...
[11:35] <smev9_> Warbo: Only that fglrx-somewhat thingy, eh
[11:35] <OneSeventeen> dooglus: after googling I just noticed split was a separate command... thanks again!
[11:35] <Warbo> smev9_: ? I don't want to use fglrx
[11:36] <plop> is it possible to control at which temp fan starts on a laptop with acpi ?
[11:36] <smev9_> Warbo: Because no direct acceleration?
[11:36] <Warbo> smev9_: I have direct acceleration on now and it is fine. Only problem is resolution
[11:36] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: you can: dd if=/whatever | split -b 1024m - piece_     if you want the files to be called piece_aa, piece_ab, etc.
[11:37] <Jinkguns> What is a good program to use to bring a 2.3MB picture down to a managble, theoretically about 100 pictures at once. :D
[11:37] <bartmaniac> I tried the format command for my usb stick, but it didn't work. command was "sudo mkfs.vfat /media/usbdisk" Error: unable to open /media/usbdisk
[11:37] <OneSeventeen> dooglus: so what does the pipe do?  (I'm assuming that is a linux feature, not a dd feature, correct?)
[11:37] <Warbo> dooglus: Would the simplest way to put those back together be using cat?
[11:37] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: when you want to 'stick the pieces back together again', just "cat x?? | dd ..."
[11:37] <dooglus> Warbo: indeed
[11:38] <MarkAngels> KDE works now. Thanks everyone
[11:38] <smev9_> Warbo: Summarized radeon=   3d+   resolution-   fgrlx=   3d-    resolution+
[11:38] <_NicK> hi folks, Id like to know if is necessary installing an additional package for Epson Stylus c45 run in ubuntu 5.10?
[11:38] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: the pipe, '|' sign, is a way of stringing commands together so the output of the first becomes the input of the 2nd
[11:38] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: try      echo hello | rev      for instance.
[11:38] <OneSeventeen> dooglus: cool, hopefully I'll never need to put it together again, but we'll see :D  and thanks on the pipe info, as I learn more about the command line, I'm sure that will be super useful.
[11:39] <BrownMan> Anyone know how to set the default path for a C compiler?
[11:39] <cute_bettong> !hardware
[11:39] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:39] <dooglus> OneSeventeen: pipes are very useful, yes.  the design principle behind UNIX was to make a bunch of simple commands which each do one job and do it well - you can then use pipes to combine them together
[11:39] <Warbo> smev9_: ati=resolution- 3D-, radeon=resolution- 3D+, fglrx=resolution+ 3D (and even the framebuffer) - (also it isn't Free, and even WINE won;t work in it)

[11:40] <Warbo> BrownMan: Install build-essential?
[11:40] <smev9_> what about u use udo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change it manually to radeon...
[11:40] <dooglus> BrownMan: that's because it couldn't find the C compiler.  you need to install package 'build-essential'
[11:40] <Iam8up> very much appreciated =)

[11:44] <BrownMan> dooglus:  But what is the package I need....perl?  I found this gnome applet on the internet and its not in the package manager
[11:44] <dooglus> BrownMan: but to answer your specific question, 'libxml-parser-perl'
[11:45] <BrownMan> dooglus:  yeah, ok thanks
[11:45] <student> Greetings, I have edubuntu, everytime I try to run a KDE program such as KTouch, I get a DCOP communication error which says it can't read the network connection list, this network connection list is not in the home dir where it is trying to read it, any ideas?
[11:45] <MetaMorfoziS> byby youtube, f...your..m...
[11:45] <dooglus> BrownMan: the command I told you before will install all the required dependencies
[11:45] <Jrt> Realplayer sometimes freezes or ecomes heavey, cant move the controlers
[11:45] <BrownMan> Brownman: oh, so my package would be the applet im working with then?
[11:45] <dooglus> matthew_w: still here?
[11:45] <Jrt> Realplayer sometimes freezes or ecomes heavey, cant move the controlers, .. anyone understands the poroblem ?
[11:46] <rigonatti> hi all ...can someone send me the ipaq.ko driver ... ??
[11:46] <plop> is it possible to control at which temp fan starts on a laptop with acpi ?
[11:46] <dooglus> Jrt: realplayer is proprietary and closed source.  it's almost impossible to fix it.
[11:46] <Albright> Jrt: No. Try spelling it correctly. Might help.
[11:46] <Myweb> please help me to use integrated microphone in my iBook g3 on Xubuntu 6.06
[11:47] <rashkae> I'm tying to make menuconfig a kernel source tree, but it complains that it can't find the ncurses libary,and I need to sintall ncuses-devel package... I can't find any such beast in synaptic, only ncurses, which is already installed.  Can anyone shed some light on this?
[11:47] <dooglus> Jrt: mplayer works well for realplayer videos
[11:47] <smev9_> how can i install kernel source?
[11:47] <Jrt> dooglus: except for 3gp files
[11:47] <cute_bettong> !wireless
[11:47] <ubotu> Documentation for wireless networking can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs
[11:47] <dooglus> rashkae: libncurses5-dev
[11:47] <nickrud> rashkae, libncurses5-dev
[11:47] <Jrt> I want alternative for 3gp files
[11:47] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Ok im back
[11:47] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > ardchiolle
[11:47] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : and?
[11:47] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > nope
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Unfortuneately I have to go right now
[11:48] <ardchoille> yeah, didn't think so
[11:48] <rashkae> dooglus, I installed libncurses5-dev, and ran ldconfig, but make menuconfig still doesn't work.
[11:48] <Jrt> when I play 3gp files with mplayer, i can see  video, but no sound
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > ardchiolle, Ill be back tomarow
[11:48] <rigonatti> hi all ...can someone send me the ipaq.ko driver ... ??
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Thanks for trying
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > mabey
[11:48] <ardchoille> Sir_Sid[Lappy] : look me up when you get back :)
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > Ill reintall firefox
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > I will
[11:48] <Sir_Sid[Lappy] > thanks and bye
[11:48] <ardchoille> yw :)
[11:48] <dooglus> Jrt: mplayer plays .3gp files fine for me.
[11:48] <rigonatti> Sir_Sid[Lappy]  Can you send me the ipaq.ko file ?
[11:48] <Jrt> helix is open source and same problem.. maybe it has to do with the plugins
[11:48] <dooglus> Jrt: (well, the 1 I just tried it on, anyway)
[11:49] <Jrt> dooglus: with sound ?
[11:49] <Warbo> Wooooo! I added a load of options to the default config and it worked! Yay!
[11:49] <mwe> running oo.org after a crash from a presentation starts crash recovery which then crashes :|
[11:49] <dooglus> Jrt: yes.
[11:49] <smev9_> That interests me now, what have u done, tell
[11:49] <dooglus> rashkae: "doesn't work"?
[11:49] <Jrt> didnt work for me , no sound
[11:49] <smev9_>  @ Warboo
[11:50] <Jrt> can I use realplayer with wine ?
[11:50] <mwe> why would you?
[11:50] <Jrt> does realplayer for windows.. work with wine
[11:50] <Warbo> smev9_: I will paste my xorg.conf (and maybe add it to the Wiki if it isn't there already)
[11:50] <Owen> hi all
[11:50] <ardchoille> Owen: hi
[11:50] <rashkae> dooglus, Never mind, apparently I hadn't installed libncurses-dev..  Thanks much.
[11:51] <BrownMan> dooglus:  "configure: error: glib-genmarshal executable not found in your path - should be installed with GLib"; I'm sorry I don't understand your previous command of getting all the build dependancies because this isn't a package it was a .tar.gz---unless that is what you are referring to?
[11:51] <mwe> oo.org crash recovery crashes. :|
[11:51] <ardchoille> mwe: lol
[11:51] <smev9_> Where will u paste it. I diddt get that, sorry
[11:51] <mwe> ardchoille: it's really annoying. only way to start it after a crash seems to be deleting the profile
[11:52] <tanek> !kernel modules
[11:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about kernel modules
[11:52] <tanek> :(
[11:53] <mwe> I was wondering if anyone else had problems with oo.org crash recovery
[11:53] <Owen> I've got a bit of a n00b question. I've setup my mouse in xorg.conf how I want it (MS IntelliMouse 3.0) so that the back/forward buttons work properly, and clicking the mouse wheel works properly... but in a strange way. If I click the wheel anywhere 'outside' of the smooth-scroll icon, it takes me back a few pages in my history. How do I make it not do this? :-P
[11:53] <Warbo> smev9_: Here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16133
[11:53] <BrownMan> Anyone know what package I need for this error message:  "configure: error: glib-genmarshal executable not found in your path - should be installed with GLib"\
[11:53] <tanek> anyone got a time to back me up compiling the fglrx kernel module?
[11:53] <Warbo> Does anyone know if there is a page on the "radeon" driver in the Wiki? (I tried searching) as I may create one
[11:54] <Warbo> BrownMan: Try installing glib-dev (there may be glib<some version>-dev)
[11:54] <mwe> tanek: why are you compiling it?
[11:54] <mwe> tanek: why not use the ubuntu module?
[11:54] <smev9_> Warbo: Cool, i think this will help a lot of people
[11:54] <nickrud> mwe, I had one where the file was deleted out from under the crash recovery, the recovery gave up after about 4 or 5 starts.
[11:54] <tanek> im not using precompiled kernel
[11:55] <mwe> tanek: anyway you need at least build-essential and linux-headers-$(uname -r) to compile it
[11:55] <Jinkguns> "mkdir smaller; for i in *.jpg; convert "$i" -resize 256x256 smaller/"$i";
[11:55] <Jinkguns> What am I doing wrong?
[11:55] <smev9_> Warbo: I will look up my own, if i can tweak my settings with similar things
[11:55] <Jinkguns> It says unexpected token 'convert'
[11:55] <tanek> mwe: got those... just wondering how to add it to kernel sources etc
[11:55] <nickrud> Jinkguns, type do just before convert
[11:56] <bioengine> Hey, where are some good open source projects for electrical engineers to code for?
[11:56] <mwe> tanek: add it to kernel sources? you shouldn't. just make sure the module loads at boot
[11:56] <ardchoille> Bye all, be back later :)
[11:56] <tanek> well dont i have to add it in kernel config
[11:56] <tanek> ?
[11:56] <Jinkguns> mkdir smaller; for i in *.jpg; do convert "$i" -resize 256x256 smaller/"$i";
[11:56] <mwe> nickrud: So in the end oo.org was starting again without deleting your profile?
[11:56] <Jinkguns> just gives me a >
[11:57] <smev9_> goodbye people, until then
[11:57] <bioengine> Does anyone here know anything about open source projects?
[11:57] <nickrud> mwe, yes. Not the same error though, the crash recovery didn't crash, just failed
[11:57] <nickrud> probably not the same error, anyway
[11:57] <teppic> Is there a way to add a  deb package to a ban list to stop apt-get upgrade from installing it>
[11:57] <teppic> ?
[11:57] <mwe> tanek: add fglrx to /etc/modules
[11:57] <tanek> ok
[11:57] <tonyyarusso> bioengine: You might try just browsing sourceforge and freshmeat to see if there's anything.
[11:58] <mwe> nickrud: hmm
[11:58] <tanek> but ive done that i think
[11:58] <Jinkguns> mkdir smaller; for i in *.jpg; do convert "$i" -resize 256x256 smaller/"$i"; (Just drops me to a > input prompt)
[11:58] <Iam8up> are there any boot options for the 5.10 live cd to help the machine run a bit smoother? it's only got 192mb of ram...
[11:58] <mwe> tanek: so what's the problem? it's not loading?
[11:58] <Iam8up> Jinkguns - definetly a quote problem
[11:58] <Iam8up> Jinkguns - or semicolon..
[11:58] <tanek> i get neither openGL support nor 3d accel
[11:58] <teppic> Specifically, I want to stop apt from installing the -25 kernel, since it screws up my system impressively.
[11:58] <SurfnKid> Iam8up: Ive got 6.06 on a 128 and runs easy breezy
[11:58] <mwe> tanek: or not compiled? you might as well just use the ubuntu precompiled module. it's much easier
[11:59] <Jinkguns> hrm
[11:59] <Iam8up> SurfnKid - i had 128mb and gnome did not like it...
[11:59] <Iam8up> it lieterally took minutes to do anything
[11:59] <SurfnKid> Iam8up: oh, of course ive got Xubuntu
[11:59] <Iam8up> and the cdrom drive was constantly spinning for a good 10 minutes afterwards
[11:59] <Iam8up> well duh =P
[11:59] <SurfnKid> :P
[11:59] <tanek> ive got the ubuntu precompiled modules, and they work, but only with the ubuntu precompiled kernel
[11:59] <Latino> hi, can gnome have diff background in each workplace?
[11:59] <Slyboots> Hello :)
[11:59] <mwe> tanek: yeah. you need a custom kernel?
[12:00] <tonyyarusso> Latino: Not yet.
[12:00] <mwe> tanek: if so you do of course need to compile your own modules
[12:00] <MdSalih> how can i do a search through txt files in a directory for a certain word in the text files?
