[12:01] <dli> !easysource > josesito
[12:01] <mikey> ya sux, i tried it awhile back, tried it again with new version to no avail, maybe ill try the x32 version
[12:01] <wildman> hansel: este es slo en ingls (English-only-here)
[12:01] <Tomatix> "Not mounted"
[12:01] <wildman> hansel: gracias (thx)
[12:01] <whil> mikey: could you be using the wrong version for your arch?
[12:01] <mikey> i have a amd64
[12:01] <Tomatix> roshan_s, "umount: /dev/sda1 not mounted"
[12:02] <josesito> thanks dli
[12:02] <wildman> Tomatix: your system has gone mad? :)
[12:02] <mikey> downloaded the amd64 edition
[12:02] <wildman> Tomatix: sudo fuser /dev/sda1
[12:02] <wildman> Tomatix: does 'fuser' return empty?
[12:02] <Tomatix> wildman, I have struggeled with this harddrive in 2 days now, with just theese errors
[12:02] <whil> mikey: hmm might have had the same problem i did
[12:02] <Tomatix> wildman, runs empty
[12:02] <mikeeeeeeey> mikey?
[12:03] <whil> mikey: like i said i never figured it out sorry cant be of any help
[12:03] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Do you by any chance have an fstab entry for /dev/sda1
[12:03] <GStubbs43> Is there a site/wiki that tells what all the folders in Linux are for?
[12:03] <wildman> Tomatix: I have not idea of what could be going on... except that some app is hang with some file open on that partition...
[12:03] <hansel> comoo se podia entrar en habla ispana ke no lo entendi bien?
[12:03] <Tomatix> roshan_s, nope
[12:03] <mikey> hate it when peopel take this nick.
[12:03] <bbrazil> GStubbs43: lookup the FHS
[12:03] <wildman> hansel: /join #ubuntu-es
[12:03] <bbrazil> mikey: turn on kill protection?
[12:03] <Tomatix> wildman, I have also tried to run it in safe mode, with same results
[12:03] <Tomatix> If I try to do   ext2fs -j /dev/sda1   then I can be able to mount it
[12:04] <mikey> bbrazil, i don't stay connected the whole time.
[12:04] <mikey2> mmk..
[12:04] <mikey> mikey2, please stop using the "mikey" nickname.
[12:04] <josh> anyone go and get the xgl/compiz package yet?
[12:04] <mikey2> yes i see...
[12:04] <bbrazil> mikey: that doesn't make a difference. It'll kill anyone that doesn't identify
[12:04] <josh> am i in the ubuntu room?
[12:04] <hansel> pero no consigo entrar
[12:05] <danfg> how do i check what kernel i'm using? it seems i'm using kernel for 386, even though i guess i should be using kernel for 686 (i've a P4)
[12:05] <ardchoille> !es > hansel
[12:05] <Tomatix> josh, yes
[12:05] <mikey2> i searched around, doesn't seem to be a common issue
[12:05] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Try pulling out the USB drive and plug it in again. Might be some wierd udev thing
[12:05] <wildman> hansel: copa y peg... en el mismo lugar donde tecles los mensajes. ltimo mensaje mo para vos en ES (last ES message for hansel...)
[12:05] <Tomatix> roshan_s, it is not an usb drive we are talking about, it is an S-ATA drive ;-)
[12:05] <josh> ok... i have a problem where my windows dont have a close button at the top... i can move the windows around...
[12:05] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Oh, sorry. Got confused
[12:06] <Tomatix> roshan_s, (=
[12:06] <josh> where ever that window opens is where it has to stay because i cant move it..
[12:06] <mikey2> u'd figure vesa mode would work
[12:06] <wildman> Tomatix: have SATA disk here, w/o any pb... but I guess someone already told you that :)
[12:06] <josh> it didn't hapen till i installed the compiz and xgl
[12:06] <wildman> Tomatix: I'd 'start from scratch'...
[12:06] <K^Holtz> why is TuxRacer incredibly slow for me?
[12:06] <josh> anyone installed those yet?
[12:06] <Ares> Hey guys, My grub entry just got rewritten after updating [doh']  what is the basic chain loading function to log into hda 1? Partition one?
[12:06] <whil> mikey2 i would have thought so too but it never worked for me either
[12:06] <harisund> K^Holtz probably because you don't have graphics acceleration :)
[12:06] <wildman> K^Holtz: cuz u don't have 3D accel enabled?
[12:06] <mikey2> i have dual monitors, that wouldnt make a difference?
[12:07] <StarkMjolk> swift question: in what package is the "display" command included? can't find it!
[12:07] <K^Holtz> do i have to install the nvidia drivers?

[12:07] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Did you make any permanent changes after the last time you mounted the drive a while ago?
[12:07] <tpgterror> sanketmedhi: ive done everything, it doesnt work
[12:07] <tpgterror> sanketmedhi: about the sound
[12:07] <Tomatix> roshan_s, it is a new harddrive, bought for ca 4 days ago
[12:08] <wildman> Tomatix: and you partitionned it already...
[12:08] <Tomatix> roshan_s, and I have formatted it last time for 40 mins ago
[12:08] <wildman> Tomatix: and made a FS on it...
[12:08] <Tomatix> wildman, the FS is ext3
[12:08] <wildman> k
[12:08] <roshan_s> Tomatix: I know, but you said you were able to mount the drive a while ago, and you had a permissions problem. Not being able to mount at all is a regression, isn't it?
[12:08] <Tomatix> I could mount it before I rebooted my pc

[12:08] <tylersmith> irefox.

[12:09] <tylersmith> windman: Thank you!!!
[12:09] <Dreamglider> can anyone help me with azureuz ?
[12:10] <wildman> tylersmith: yw
[12:10] <tpgterror> Could anybody help with sound?
[12:10] <tylersmith> Wildman: sorry to have misspelled wildman. Take care! Phil
[12:10] <wildman> tylersmith: thx, u 2
[12:10] <wildman> Tomatix: humm... strange...
[12:10] <Tomatix> wildman, I know!
[12:10] <tailsfan> question, I'm trying to compile and it gave me this error:  configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[12:10] <lopzided> help!  the d-pad on my usb gamepad will only work if i run the game as root!
[12:10] <whil> I was just wondering why is it that when one tries to uninstall a package it wants to take a lot of others with it and how can this be prevented?
[12:10] <tailsfan> tpgterror, what's the prbo
[12:10] <_Aaron_> tailsfan: yes
[12:11] <wildman> Tomatix: only thing I can think of is some app (which u cannot 'find') having a file/dir/whatever opened on that partition...
[12:11] <cjones> does anybody hear much about wine
[12:11] <roshan_s> Tomatix: I've no idea what your problem could be. I guess you could try reformatting your new drive, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. The fact that it refuses to mount *anywhere* is puzzling
[12:11] <cjones> ?
[12:11] <`Evil`> wildman, hey there, guess i forgot, for fat32 drives *sheepish*
[12:11] <DBO> lopzided, what gamepad?
[12:11] <tailsfan> _Aaron_ anyway on how fix this?
[12:11] <Tomatix> roshan_s, I know that, it is weird
[12:11] <roshan_s> `Evil`: Look at dosfsck
[12:11] <Tomatix> wildman, I can try to reboot in safe mode
[12:11] <wildman> `Evil`: ah... that's different... but roshan_s gave u the command ;)
[12:11] <`Evil`> roshan_s, thanks
[12:11] <wildman> Tomatix: dunno if safe mode will change anything...
[12:11] <bbrazil> tailsfan: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:11] <tpgterror> tailsfan: ive followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToConfigureSoundBlasterAudigySEinBreezy?highlight=%28audigy%29, i done anorther 2nd link because that one doesnt work and i skipped the 4rd command, but still it doesnt work, i think i made a mistake at the bluescreen stuff
[12:11] <_Aaron_> tailsfan: not sure, sorry
[12:11] <lopzided> DBO, some cheapy i got at a flea market (it works)....brand name DB, model number G60305a ... i've gotten it to work on a previous install of ubuntu
[12:12] <tailsfan> tpgterror try www.alsa-project.org
[12:12] <lopzided> DBO, i mean brand name GF or GA .... read it wrong
[12:12] <wildman> Tomatix: if SATA support is loaded (it should be), and hardware is fine (it should be), and no app has any file on that partition open, you should be able to mount it
[12:12] <K^Holtz> im about to install the nvidia-legacy drivers, but i dont understand this part in the wiki: Find the appropriate module for your kernel. For example, if you have linux-image-amd64-k8 installed, then you should install linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8.
[12:13] <tailsfan> downloading now...
[12:13] <Tomatix> wildman, I know. fdisk -l shows my disk too
[12:13] <K^Holtz> what does that stuff have to do with nvidia drivers?
[12:13] <Tomatix> wildman, and, I am in single mode now, and the same errors appears
[12:13] <tailsfan> BRB, switching to konversation
[12:13] <_bt> Tomatix,    lsof | grep sda1
[12:13] <wildman> Tomatix: geez....
[12:13] <Redman276> are ther  other  software channels besides the ones that are in ubuntu ?
[12:13] <johlin> I'm on the path to making my webcam work. The sqcam driver is supposed to work with it. What do I do with the downloaded sqcam package?
[12:13] <DBO> lopzided, can I see lspci in pastebin please
[12:13] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Is your current drive also SATA? And does it work fine?
[12:13] <Tomatix> _bt, well, empty return
[12:13] <lopzided> DBO, sure
[12:13] <Tomatix> roshan_s, my current drive is an IDE
[12:13] <_bt> :O
[12:14] <whil> I was just wondering why is it that when one tries to uninstall a package it wants to take a lot of others with it and how can this be prevented?
[12:14] <tpgterror> tailsfan: and then?
[12:14] <danfg> i just found out my kernel is for 386 (2.6.15-25-386), even though it should be 686 (my cpu is a P4), how could this happen? why does ubuntu instalation not care to use a kernel optimized for 686?
[12:14] <lopzided> DBO, http://pastebin.ca/85392
[12:15] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Try running mount -v for verbose
[12:15] <DBO> lopzided, is it a USB device?
[12:15] <lopzided> DBO, yes
[12:15] <danfg> is there any difference between a kernel optimized for 386 and 686?
[12:15] <wildman> whil: because the package you are trying to uninstall is a dependency of others
[12:15] <DBO> lopzided, lsusb in pastebin please
[12:15] <Tomatix> roshan_s, same error, nothing else
[12:15] <u01p2109> how to in xorg.conf set that langugage willbe changed with Ctrl+Shift? (lv,ru) ?
[12:15] <Tomatix> roshan_s, but when Ubuntu was as fresh install as it could be (3 hours ago), fdisk -l did not show my S-ATA drive. I had to build a vanilla kernel and activate "SATA Support"...
[12:15] <wildman> whil: and if you do remove it, it would 'break' their dependents
[12:15] <wildman> whil: their->its, sorry
[12:15] <lopzided> DBO, http://pastebin.ca/85394
[12:15] <whil> wildman: okay thanks.
[12:16] <wildman> Tomatix: which Ubuntu version? dapper?
[12:16] <Tomatix> latest
[12:16] <Tomatix> v 6
[12:16] <wildman> Tomatix: cuz my dapper does have SATA support 'out of the box'...
[12:16] <wildman> Tomatix: nVidia SATA controller?
[12:16] <Tomatix> weird...
[12:16] <Tomatix> mm
[12:16] <Tomatix> no
[12:16] <Tomatix> ALi :P
[12:16] <wildman> Tomatix: oh...
[12:16] <K^Holtz> when installing nvidia-legacy drivers, do i just install the nvidia-glx-legacy package and thats it?
[12:16] <Tomatix> wildman, I might be needed to buy a new mother board
[12:17] <wildman> Tomatix: dunno about ALi SATA controllers, do you have its kernel module installed? (lsmod will tell you)
[12:17] <wildman> K^Holtz: guess so... then you might have to do some config as explained in the wiki
[12:17] <wildman> whil: yw
[12:17] <danfg> who's using a kernel optimized for 686 in here?
[12:18] <DBO> lopzided, cat /dev/input/js0, and start pressing on the dpad, any output?
[12:18] <Tomatix> wildman, but I could mount my S-ATA when it was newly formatted, and when I reboot, it fails
[12:18] <abo> is it possible to increase the size of a partition using gparted?

[12:18] <DBO> lopzided, well thats the right device... and you sure its chmodded 666?

[12:21] <wildman> nenes: /join ...

[12:21] <lopzided> DBO, lol i've been trying to figure it out for 2 hours
[12:21] <Tomatix> roshan_s, nothing...but the thing is, I can get my disk in fdisk -l and I can mount it when I have formatted it...
[12:22] <DBO> lopzided, by all rights it should be able to read the dpad input... and running games as root is a bad idea like you said in -offtopic
[12:22] <lopzided> DBO, yeah i know.....that's why i'm so adament on finding a solution :)
[12:22] <roshan_s> Tomatix: It looks like Ali is now called ULi so you need the sata_uli module. Is it loaded?
[12:22] <wildman> nenes: you are in, bonne chance !
[12:22] <danfg> guys, use "uname -a" and tell me whether your kernels are for 386 or 686 and what processor you are using
[12:22] <abo> can anyone help me increasing the size of a partition using gparted?
[12:23] <Tomatix> roshan_s, yes it is loaded
[12:23] <wildman> abo: if you have 'space after' the partition, you just move the slider/whatever_control_gparted_has and u should be set

[12:25] <Tomatix> okok
[12:25] <DBO> lopzided, cat /dev/input/ts1
[12:25] <wildman> Tomatix: I'd 1st make sure the kernel support for your controller (a.k.a. module, driver) is loaded...
[12:26] <Tomatix> used $100 for nothing...damn
[12:26] <lopzided> DBO, nothing
[12:26] <wildman> Tomatix: otherwise, u'll keep hitting a wall...
[12:26] <lopzided> DBO, no response to dpad
[12:26] <danfg> could someone post their "uname -a" here?
[12:26] <cjones> does anybody hear much about wine ?

[12:28] <wildman> sda8 is before sda5? :P
[12:28] <DBO> lopzided, its got to have two device files... but all be a monkeys uncle if I know where
[12:28] <wildman> abo: sda8 is before sda5? :P
[12:28] <Tomatix> DBO, well... When I have ran  mke2fs -j /dev/sda1, I can mount it, but when I reboot my computer, it refuses to be mounted
[12:28] <abo> wildman, yes... don't ask me why!
[12:28] <K^Holtz> i got a bunch of lines like this wildman
[12:28] <K^Holtz> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[12:28] <K^Holtz> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[12:29] <DBO> Tomatix, have you added it to your /etc/fstab?
[12:29] <Tomatix> DBO, yes
[12:29] <wildman> abo: if u want to grow sda8, and it's followed by another partition... u r mostly ... out of luck ;)
[12:29] <wildman> abo: however, you could try to use EVMS or LVM to 'grow' your partition
[12:29] <tailsfan> Is it normal for build-essential to ask for a CD
[12:29] <DBO> Tomatix, after your mount it the first time can you write to it?
[12:29] <lopzided> DBO, well, i guess i'll post on the forum or something....i appreciate your time though :)
[12:29] <wildman> abo: don't ask me more, I didn't play with those beasts yet ;)
[12:29] <Tomatix> DBO, yes
[12:29] <DBO> lopzided, im really sorry
[12:29] <Tomatix> DBO, "mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or /home/toma/stasj/1 busy"
[12:29] <abo> what's EVMS, LVM, other programs?
[12:29] <K^Holtz> wildman: i dont have linux-restricited-modules installed.. i dont know which ones i need
[12:29] <lopzided> DBO, no big deal :D  i'll figure it out eventually
[12:29] <danfg> anyone using a Pentium Pro, Celeron, P2, P3 or P4, could you please post your "uname -a" for me?
[12:29] <wildman> K^Holtz: did you run make the changes on xorg.conf ?
[12:29] <wildman> grrr...
[12:30] <wildman> K^Holtz: did you make the changes on xorg.conf ?
[12:30] <K^Holtz> wildman: no
[12:30] <roshan_s> tailsfan: Go to System > Admin. > Software Properties and uncheck the CD-ROM source
[12:30] <wildman> K^Holtz: the ones 'matching' your kernel
[12:30] <DBO> Tomatix, oh you are having issues with evms
[12:30] <BlueEagle> danfg: 00:29 Linux bluebox 2.6.15-25-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 14 11:34:19 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:30] <hoehaver> hey, my system is too over loaded, i have ubuntu 6.06. i shouldnt have installed so many things. is there a way to uninstall every thing besides the sysyem its self?
[12:30] <wildman> K^Holtz: wait, I'll try to illustrate...
[12:30] <K^Holtz> wildman: im very new to this
[12:30] <BlueEagle> danfg: Don't ask me why it's an SMP kernel.
[12:30] <DBO> Tomatix, try to mount /dev/evms/sda1
[12:30] <danfg> BlueEagle: you probably have hyperthreading
[12:30] <compengi> i have a irc dns vhosts, how can i use them in shell hosting for psybnc?
[12:30] <Tomatix> DBO, hmm!
[12:31] <wildman> abo: LVM = Logical Volume Manager, EVMS = Enterprise Volume Management System
[12:31] <BlueEagle> danfg: Anyways that's for a P3 700mhz processor.
[12:31] <Tomatix> DBO, lol that works O_o   why`s that?
[12:31] <DBO> Tomatix, because evms is STEALING it =P
[12:31] <wildman> abo: basically a way to 'add' partitions into a 'bigger' logical unit (disk)
[12:31] <Tomatix> DBO, thank you very much! and you others as well ;)
[12:31] <tpgterror> anybody help me with my soundcard?
[12:31] <DBO> Tomatix, just change your /etc/fstab to reflect that
[12:31] <danfg> BlueEagle: oh, in that case, not sure you have hyperthreading, i think it's a P4-only feature afaik
[12:31] <Tomatix> okay!
[12:32] <roshan_s> DBO: Thanks for solving Tomatix's problem :-)
[12:32] <BlueEagle> danfg: Well it's what adept found out I should be using and I haven't bothered to roll my own kernel.
[12:32] <DBO> roshan_s, dumb luck =P  I've seen it before
[12:32] <Some_Person> I just got my ShipIt cds for Ubuntu 6.06
[12:32] <hoehaver> is there a way?
[12:32] <Some_Person> Can I use them to upgrade my current install of 5.10?
[12:33] <danfg> BlueEagle: who/what is adept?
[12:33] <hoehaver> i want to uninstall ever thing but i dont know what all to uninstall without damaging the system
[12:33] <DBO> Some_Person, you sure can
[12:33] <BlueEagle> danfg: kubuntu package manager.
[12:33] <Some_Person> How?
[12:33] <danfg> ah
[12:33] <BlueEagle> !info adept
[12:33] <ubotu> adept: package manager for KDE. In repository main, is optional. Version 2.0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 3752 kB, installed size 10988 kB
[12:33] <roshan_s> DBO: Some_Person: no you can't. You need to d/l the "alternate" CDs for upgrades
[12:33] <danfg> BlueEagle: i'm using regular ubuntu, i guess mine is synaptic
[12:34] <Some_Person> crap
[12:34] <VolVE> So... anyone know how I can figure out which ttf font file rrd is using for some graphs? :-/
[12:34] <zeroxxx> hey does anyone know how to make the java rpm executable so i can install it?
[12:34] <Some_Person> crappity crap crap crap
[12:34] <DBO> roshan_s, hmmm, right shipit isnt shipping the two cd set anymore
[12:34] <hoehaver> no, you can upgrade from 5.10 to  6.06
[12:34] <hoehaver> thats how i did it
[12:34] <Some_Person> i'm not downloading a huge disk image on dialup
[12:34] <RobNyc> my friend is having a big problem he has reinstalled ac ouple of times and same problem https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+ticket/1154
[12:34] <hoehaver> it complicated thing when you have stuff installed though
[12:34] <wildman> K^Holtz: nvidia-kernel-common,  linux-image-2.6.15-26-amd64-generic, nvidia-glx
[12:34] <JDahl> zeroxxx: you can't execute an rpm file, but you might be able to install it using "alien"
[12:34] <Some_Person> and 6.06 actually supports my soundcard
[12:34] <BlueEagle> zeroxxx: alien if there is no other alternative. Building from source is often more safe than using alien to convert rpm-s
[12:35] <wildman> K^Holtz: is what I have here, however I have newer nVidia hardware than you (FX5200 AGP card)
[12:35] <roshan_s> Some_Person: You're out of luck. Your only option with the Desktop CD is to install from scratch.
[12:35] <danfg> uh... how can i tell ubuntu to install a better kernel for me? currently it's optimized for 386, but it should be for 686. any ideas?
[12:35] <zeroxxx> umm, i suck wtf is alien and how do i use it?
[12:35] <Some_Person> oh no
[12:35] <wildman> K^Holtz: but I guess more or less the same applies to you with the TNT2 board
[12:35] <BlueEagle> !info alien

[12:35] <BlueEagle> zeroxxx: sudo aptitude install alien
[12:35] <zeroxxx> k thx
[12:35] <zeroxxx> afk
[12:35] <Some_Person> exactly how large is the d/l?
[12:35] <K^Holtz> wildman: i have a bunch of packages installed already in synaptic that have to do with linux-restricted modules

[12:36] <hoehaver> if you have dial up man and your trying to download ubuntu 6.06....good luck with that
[12:36] <zeroxxx> ok, now how do alien is on here, now how do i isnstall java with it?
[12:36] <hoehaver> you wont be able to get a phone call for a couple of days
[12:37] <Some_Person> 692 MB??? thats too big on dialup

[12:37] <BlueEagle> !java
[12:37] <kalosaurusrex> judah: oh yeah that's it.
[12:37] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the runtime Sun Java install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[12:37] <danfg> judah, kalosaurusrex: thanks
[12:37] <K^Holtz> wildman: its the 386 version.. it seems to have 3 or 4 instances of the same package, then the common one
[12:37] <zeroxxx> sorry, my bad i mean the JRE
[12:37] <hoehaver> hey man go to the ubuntu site and go to shipit....something
[12:37] <Some_Person> that would take days
[12:37] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Maybe you can find someone in your area with a CD. Do you have a Linux Users Group?
[12:37] <Some_Person> no
[12:37] <hoehaver> register and they will mail ti to you absolutly free
[12:37] <BlueEagle> zeroxxx: sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jre
[12:37] <hoehaver> no shiping and handling
[12:37] <wildman> K^Holtz: did you follow instructions in here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia ?
[12:38] <BlueEagle> zeroxxx: You will need to enable/add a multiverse repository to get it tho.
[12:38] <zeroxxx> cool thx
[12:38] <K^Holtz> wildman: yes, to the best of my capabilities.. when i type sudo nvidia-glx-config enable i get an error
[12:38] <JDahl> zeroxxx: You should rarely need alien, if at all.  Ubuntu has an overwhelming repository on its own
[12:38] <BlueEagle> k^holtz: ...and which error is that?
[12:38] <roshan_s> hoehaver: Some_Person wants an alternate CD to upgrade his current install. Shipit doesn't provide those any more
[12:38] <Some_Person> you guys dont shipit the alternate cd
[12:39] <K^Holtz> BlueEagle: the first line is: Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[12:39] <Some_Person> great, so i'm stuck with 5.10 with no audo
[12:39] <Some_Person> *audio
[12:39] <DBO> Some_Person, what audio card do you have?
[12:39] <BlueEagle> some_person: Which sound card have you got?
[12:39] <bbrazil> Some_Person: ask your local LUG for a copy?
[12:39] <roshan_s> Some_Person: It is very likely that your city has a LUG. Where do you live, if you don't mind me asking?
[12:40] <Some_Person> Houston
[12:40] <judah> Texans LOVE linux!
[12:40] <wildman> K^Holtz: that's not an error, but a warning
[12:40] <judah> ;)
[12:40] <Some_Person> but i'm a 12 year old not allowed out of the house
[12:40] <judah> that's what i've heard at least. those crazy texans...
[12:40] <BlueEagle> wildman: Acutally that is an error because nvidia-glx-config won't touch a custom xorg.conf file iirc.
[12:41] <K^Holtz> wildman: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17785
[12:41] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Someone at the Houston LUG might be kind enough to mail a CD. Look at www.hlug.org
[12:41] <wildman> BlueEagle: oh... always run on 'vanilla' xorg.conf :)
[12:41] <wildman> K^Holtz: goin there...
[12:41] <hoehaver> HOW can i revert ubuntu to its origanal state, before i started adding programs to it
[12:41] <ndansmith> hoehaver: reinstall?
[12:41] <hoehaver> lol, no
[12:41] <johnw> what is the best supported wireless LAN card out there
[12:42] <wildman> K^Holtz: lines 6 and 7 of ur pastebin have the 'solution' ;)
[12:42] <zeioth> ya ta
[12:42] <wildman> K^Holtz: plz proceed as they say
[12:42] <johnw> what is the best supported wireless LAN card out there?
[12:42] <metal80> Hello,is there a way to automount a windows partition in a home lan? I got XP in one pc and Ubuntu 6.06 in other,and I want to access a partition in the windows machine just at the start of Ubuntu
[12:42] <hoehaver> i would reinstall but i only have the ubuntu 5.10 cd, i wowuld have to upgrade it
[12:42] <hoehaver> it takes like 5 hours to upgrade
[12:42] <Some_Person> why dont u guys shipit the upgrade cds
[12:42] <wildman> K^Holtz: the nvidia-glx-config only does what those lines say IIRC, changing 'nv' driver for 'nvidia' one
[12:42] <johnw> what is the best supported wireless LAN card out there
[12:43] <yeri_> i have a question. there is a document on my desktop and i dont know how to open it. it is .doc and it wont openin text editor
[12:43] <wildman> yeri_: install OpenOffice
[12:43] <johnw> what is the best supported wireless LAN card out there
[12:43] <yeri_> im ketetha's sister if you guys know her
[12:43] <dli> johnw, fsf.org says rt2500
[12:43] <sharms> !tell metal80 about ntfs
[12:43] <johnw> thanks dli
[12:43] <BlueEagle> some_person: We (the people in here) are volentairs, not employees of Canonical or ShipIt.
[12:43] <yeri_> wildman: i have that. which one do i use?
[12:43] <wildman> yeri_: Writer
[12:43] <hoehaver> for the same reason you dont, it will take days
[12:43] <dli> johnw, fyi, http://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/net/wireless/cards.html
[12:43] <roshan_s> Some_Person: I don't think any of us have a say in that :-) We're just users, like you.
[12:43] <yeri_> wildman, thanks im goign to try it
[12:43] <sharms> Some_Person: why would we ship out upgrade cds?
[12:43] <wildman> yeri_: if the .doc was created with MS Word, u'll be able to open it in OOo writer
[12:43] <BlueEagle> some_person: Go to the ShipIt website and look for a "contact us" or FAQ and see if you can find the answer there.
[12:43] <wildman> yeri_: yw
[12:43] <johnw> dli, thanks again
[12:43] <yeri_> wildman, 00o?
[12:43] <judah> johnw: atheros chipsets are rad. prism2 chipsets have great support as well.
[12:44] <Some_Person> i mean, why doesnt ubuntu shipit the upgrade cds
[12:44] <wildman> yeri_: OpenOffice.org ;)
[12:44] <johnw> well, Buffalo sucks!
[12:44] <K^Holtz> wildman: after chaning nv to nvidia, saving the file, and trying again, i get the same error
[12:44] <sharms> Some_Person: give a reason why it is a good idea?
[12:44] <johnw> WLI2-PCI-G54S
[12:44] <judah> johnw: anything that requiers ndswrapper or whatever it is... will cause you heartache.
[12:44] <johnw> yes
[12:44] <yeri_> wildman, i see
[12:44] <johnw> i've noticed
[12:44] <Some_Person> so people like me can upgrade
[12:44] <hoehaver> hoehaver: hi
[12:44] <wildman> K^Holtz: after changing that file, you have to restart X :)
[12:44] <hoehaver> hmm, how do you make it look red
[12:44] <wildman> K^Holtz: for the change to have effect
[12:44] <sharms> Some_Person: Soon enough edgy will be released, and you can upgrade that way
[12:44] <judah> johnw: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[12:44] <zerocipher> is there anyone with ubuntu 64 knowledge on?
[12:44] <K^Holtz> wildman:  thanks, ill do that
[12:44] <hoehaver> just type the persons name with : after ity
[12:44] <wildman> K^Holtz: waiy
[12:44] <sharms> Some_Person: Dapper un-upgraded is quite functional
[12:44] <wildman> K^Holtz: wait
[12:44] <yeri_> wildman, arghh i dont have openoffice installed in dapper yet. packages right?
[12:44] <judah> johnw: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=support+wireless+card&fullsearch=Text
[12:45] <Some_Person> so that means i have to reinstall every time a new one is released
[12:45] <K^Holtz> wildman: i'm here
[12:45] <wildman> K^Holtz: 1st) good luck; 2nd) you know what to change back if it didn't work to return here... 3rd) good luck again!
[12:45] <Some_Person> that @#$*ing sucks
[12:45] <danfg> system is asking me to restart after i upgraded my kernel, brb. thanks for your help guys
[12:45] <wildman> yeri_: well... install it?
[12:45] <yeri_> wildman, arghh. my sister doesnt have the same adminstration as me. she doesnt have the package manager. how come
[12:45] <K^Holtz> wildman: you telling me i may not be able to get back into X?
[12:45] <hoehaver> some_person: you can upgrade your system from 5.10 to 6.06
[12:45] <sharms> Some_Person: you should be able to add the CD to apt and upgrade that way
[12:46] <hoehaver> but....if you have alot of stuff installed that you installed, you may have problems
[12:46] <Some_Person> really???
[12:46] <hoehaver> yes
[12:46] <Some_Person> cool, i'll try it
[12:46] <sharms> !tell Some_Person about upgrade
[12:46] <hoehaver> thats how i did it
[12:46] <hoehaver> it takes like 5 hours to download ever thing
[12:46] <wildman> K^Holtz: if it doesn't work, yes. but you can change 'back' to 'nv' driver by editing /etc/xorg.conf with your favourite text editor
[12:46] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Even if you had an alternate CD, you'd still need to redownload any extra packages you might have installed. That would still take a lot of time
[12:46] <hoehaver> and about 2 to instal lit
[12:46] <hoehaver> but i have dsl so.....good luck with that
[12:46] <wildman> K^Holtz: it should work
[12:46] <K^Holtz> wildman: thanks, ill brb.. hopefully
[12:46] <wildman> K^Holtz: cya soon
[12:46] <wildman> yeri_: hmm...
[12:47] <MystaMax> when I'm adjusting my /etc/fstab does it matter what order I put the mount options? which is the 4th column?
[12:47] <wildman> yeri_: different versions of Ubuntu maybe? or different install sets...
[12:47] <yeri_> wildman, wait installed dapper on my thing yesterday (ketetha) but does that mean i ahve to install it on yeri's too?
[12:47] <wildman> yeri_: sudo apt-get install openoffice.org
[12:48] <K^Holtz> wildman: i had to log in to text first, but then saw the nvidia splashscreen, then had the graphical login
[12:48] <hoehaver> IS THERE a way to revert ubuntu back to its origanal state
[12:48] <wildman> yeri_: not really...
[12:48] <Bassist> Hey all
[12:48] <yeri_> wildman, ok ima try that
[12:48] <wildman> K^Holtz: good, looks you are on the right track...
[12:48] <hoehaver> like when i istalled automatrix it saved a file or some4hintg
[12:48] <hoehaver> or....is there a way?
[12:48] <wildman> yeri_: go, go, go! :)
[12:48] <Bassist> Can anybody help a newbie at ssh, please?
[12:48] <yeri_> wildman,, haha
[12:48] <dli> !ask > Bassetts
[12:48] <dli> !ask > Bassist
[12:48] <wildman> hoehaver: what's your pb? you didn't tell automatix to 'revert' repos to the 'standard' ones?
[12:49] <K^Holtz> wildman: looks like i was untill i tried to play the game, now after hitting any key on the pomop of the game, all my resolution is all messed up ( i cant see what im typing)
[12:49] <wildman> hoehaver: cuz the solution to that is... backups :)
[12:49] <sharms> !automatix
[12:49] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[12:49] <wildman> K^Holtz: games change screen resolution....
[12:49] <hoehaver> yeah i know...but i made a back up after i installede some stuff
[12:49] <sharms> Please move to appropriate channel, we do not recommend automatix nor support it
[12:49] <yeri_> wildman, it doenst work. im goign to go back to ketetha and see if she has the same rights as me and stuff and install it there byee
[12:50] <wildman> K^Holtz: try hitting Ctrl, Alt and the + or - signs... if I remember correctly that will change rez among available ones...
[12:50] <Bassist> dli: Ok when I try to slogin from Slackware to Ubuntu I get: 'Temporary failure in name resolution'
[12:50] <K^Holtz> wildman:  yes, but the gamehas disappeared, and i cant see th most of my screen, just this xchat window
[12:50] <Bassist> dli: Though I added the rsa key from the Ubuntu laptop as an authorized_key in my .ssh/ folder in Slackware
[12:50] <hoehaver> why dont you support automatrix
[12:50] <sharms> Bassist: that seems like a dns error
[12:50] <hoehaver> its great
[12:50] <wildman> yeri_: well... maybe you have a different ubuntu version (and thus repos) and OOo package name is different...
[12:51] <K^Holtz> wildman: nope
[12:51] <Bassist> sharms: What to do about that?
[12:51] <sharms> hoehaver: because if we supported automatix our channel would be called #automatix
[12:51] <wildman> K^Holtz: sigh...
[12:51] <bartek66> :P
[12:51] <sharms> Bassist: Check your hosts files etc
[12:51] <sharms> Bassist: it is having problems resolving one of the targets
[12:51] <MystaMax> Bassist, are you using IP address or hostnames?
[12:51] <ketetha_> hola all
[12:51] <MystaMax> hola
[12:51] <dli> Bassist, sounds like a DNS error, not an ssh error
[12:51] <sharms> hi!
[12:52] <Bassist> MystaMax: hostnames
[12:52] <wildman> ketetha_: hola, pero solo en ingls ac ;)
[12:52] <sharms> !es
[12:52] <MystaMax> Bassist, try IP address
[12:52] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:52] <Bassist> dli: What about this DNS error?
[12:52] <Bassist> dli: What exactly could be wrong?
[12:52] <tailsfan> hey ketetha_
[12:52] <ketetha_> wildman, bien! tu habla espanol? yo estudiar espanol a la escuela
[12:52] <ketetha_> tailsfan, heyy whatcha doing i'm installing openofficc
[12:52] <MystaMax> Bassist,  It can't find an IP address for the hostname specified
[12:52] <wildman> ketetha_: EN only here... or else you might get kicked ;)
[12:52] <dli> Bassist, try to ssh the IP (instead of a host name)

[12:54] <j0hanna> i need help, can't find what win32 repositories
[12:54] <sharms> hoehaver: and it is a general consensus that automatix may not perform all operations safely or in a way which is easily undone
[12:54] <Bassist> dli, MystaMax, thanks a lot

[01:00] <`Evil`> dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN

[01:00] <_Roconda_> thx
[01:00] <help> i download the new klamav and i do not know how to install it
[01:00] <ketetha_> can you guys tell me what media player you use and if its good?
[01:01] <K^Holtz> everytime i try to play tuxracer now the game crashes, the resoolution messes up, and i cant see anything on my monitor fully
[01:01] <roshan_s> `Evil`: Is the partition otherwise fine?
[01:01] <tailsfan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17788
[01:01] <montag_451> New to linux, but I use Quod Libet for my music library and VLC for anything not in it plus movies.
[01:01] <DBO> ketetha_, AmaroK is considered one of the best "heavy" players (it does a lot, and eats more ram).  XMMS is good for a minalist
[01:01] <K^Holtz> i cant move my mouse either
[01:01] <sharms> ketetha_: I use rhythmbox for audio and totem for video (with all gstreamer restricted stuff)
[01:01] <tailsfan> anyway to change to the directory of the kernel-source I installed
[01:01] <`Evil`> roshan_s, Yes. All the partitions are giving this msg
[01:02] <dman> everytime i use the synaptic to remove "gnomemeeting" it comes up as failed and im not sure where it goes wrong, any ideas?
[01:02] <hoehaver> in synptic whats the diff between demore and completely remove?
[01:02] <hoehaver> remove*
[01:02] <ketetha_> DBO: thankk you im going to try it
[01:02] <boricua> new name ekiga?
[01:02] <ketetha_> sharms: thanks :)
[01:02] <montag_451> Completely remove also removes the config files.
[01:02] <roshan_s> `Evil`: Did you run e2fsck on the drive by mistake?
[01:02] <hoehaver> ah, well...whats the use in that
[01:02] <dman> hoehaver the completely remove option allows you to remove all of the config files as well as the program itseld
[01:02] <help> i download the new klamav and i do not know how to install it
[01:02] <K^Holtz> guess ill just restart X again
[01:02] <ketetha_> what does the applications menu editor do
[01:03] <montag_451> If you want to save space, or you're just being purist about getting rid of the software, it's a good idea.
[01:03] <`Evil`> roshan_s, No. I ran man e2fsckand checked was for ext03 so ran dosfsck then
[01:03] <ketetha_> Amarok looks like itunes. looks good to me
[01:03] <tailsfan> does my pastebin help?
[01:04] <tailsfan> I'm trying to get sounbd to work on my PC
[01:04] <tailsfan> sound*
[01:04] <roshan_s> Do you have Windows installed on your FAT32 drive? Can you check if it still boots?
[01:04] <ketetha_> what is gnome really?
[01:04] <abo> anyone can help me grow/expand a partition on my disk? I have 10GB of free space (unallocated) that I would like to add to the partition where root is mounted, the problem is the free space is not after the partition to grow.. I tried gparted and evms ... no luck
[01:05] <ketetha_> nevermind i asked ubotu =] 
[01:05] <`Evil`> roshan_s, XP is there on 2nd hdd primary part and boots fine. The prob is ubuntu Every time says error and boots on startup
[01:05] <`Evil`> roshan_s, While windows doesnt give any error in same parts
[01:05] <`Evil`> roshan_s, and Ubuntu takes about 15min on startup eachtime to check
[01:05] <help> can someoe hlp me
[01:06] <LjL> !helpme
[01:06] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:06] <roshan_s> `Evil`: The Ubuntu errors are on the FAT partitions? Have you tried running the Windows scandisk tool or whatever they have nowadays?
[01:06] <`Evil`> roshan_s, Yep. They're in FAT32. Tried almost every tool. Noone gives any error
[01:06] <help> i download the new klamav and i do not know how to install it
[01:07] <roshan_s> `Evil`: An easy way out is to not have Ubuntu check your DOS partitions on boot, since Windows will scan those partitions. There's nothing really wrong with those partitions anyhow
[01:08] <`Evil`> roshan_s, Ok, Cool. How do I then make Ubuntu not check disks on boot?
[01:08] <tailsfan> I'm having trying with compiling
[01:08] <help> i download the new klamav and i do not know how to install it
[01:08] <tailsfan> It's saying I don
[01:09] <tailsfan> 't have the right files for the kernel and I just installed build-essential
[01:09] <tailsfan> what do I do
[01:09] <K^Holtz> !nvidia
[01:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:09] <Surfnkid> the update manager frequently shows new apps, mostly new kernel updates, my question is, if this frequency is often, does it remove old versions and update the newest, or backup eacch old version? its 100mb each time it updates, mostly xorg, kernel images/
[01:09] <finalbeta> !chm
[01:09] <ubotu> I know nothing about chm
[01:09] <klees> is there a command that clears obselete downloaded apt-get files???
[01:09] <natan-> if i have a bash script i want to run all the time what is the best way to implement that?
[01:09] <Surfnkid> autoclean
[01:10] <klees> apt-get autoclean??
[01:10] <roshan_s> You need to edit /etc/fstab. Do "VISUAL=gedit sudoedit /etc/fstab" Then find the lines corresponding to your DOS partitions. They probably have a "2" in the sixth column. Change that to a "0". "man fstab" for details
[01:10] <Surfnkid> yes
[01:10] <dli> klees, apt-get clean
[01:10] <Surfnkid> klees, yes
[01:10] <klees> apt-get clean removes all downloaded files??
[01:10] <`Evil`> roshan_s, k thanks. will try that
[01:11] <hoehaver> is there a comand i can run in a termenal to see if i have any programs or...codecs or anything is causing a conflict with another....program
[01:11] <hoehaver> or codec or what ever
[01:11] <K^Holtz> in the nvidia driver instructions it mentions If you are going to compile 3D applications... does that mean make them? like write programs yourself?
[01:11] <dli> klees, yes, all in /var/cache/apt/archives/

[01:31] <ketetha_> amaranth, its donne
[01:31] <BlueEagle> help1: if that does not work head to source-o-matic so you get all the availible repositories.
[01:31] <DBO> _Aaron_, you can find a changelog on launchpad
[01:31] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell help1 about source-o-matic
[01:31] <sztanpet_> anyway i can make mplayer keep the aspect ratio of movies when i resize them? it only works in fullscreen mode
[01:31] <Dasnipa] [> _Aaron_, kernal releases are normal...
[01:31] <BlueEagle> !tell help1 about source-o-matic
[01:31] <_Aaron_> DBO: so you mean all this time I been using Ubuntu, its had a security risk that needed to be fixed? :(  Has my system been compromised?
[01:31] <pepsi> Ubugtu, tell pepsi about source-o-matic
[01:31] <_Aaron_> Dasnipa] [: so you mean all this time I been using Ubuntu, its had a security risk that needed to be fixed? :(  Has my system been compromised?
[01:32] <BlueEagle> !notice doesn't ubotu give feedback as to what it told people anymore?
[01:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about notice doesn't ubotu give feedback as to what it told people anymore?
[01:32] <BlueEagle> bahh
[01:32] <Dasnipa] [> _Aaron_, no, not really...
[01:32] <_Aaron_> what was the security fix of the latest kernel?
[01:32] <DBO> _Aaron_, no code is perfect, but they patch holes as soon as they find them.  You system is fine
[01:32] <pepsi> freakin.. who put a stupid bot whos name comes before ubotu
[01:32] <_Aaron_> Has my system been compromised?
[01:32] <Stormx2> sztanpet_: Mine does it in none-full-screen o.O
[01:32] <pepsi> oh nevermind :D
[01:32] <_Aaron_> Dasnipa] [: define "not really"
[01:32] <DBO> _Aaron_, no it has not
[01:32] <jrib> K^Holtz: esc should get you in command mode, after that you can hit two capital Z's: ZZ or a colon, a 'w', and a 'q', :wq
[01:32] <_Aaron_> DBO: what was the security fix of the latest kernel?
[01:32] <Dasnipa] [> _Aaron_, everything _can_ have security holes... im sure that theres still some yet to be found the difference is with linux they are patched _really really_ fast
[01:33] <_Aaron_> Dasnipa] [: that may be too late :(
[01:33] <jrib> K^Holtz: if that isn't working you may want to try nano until you can get the hang of vim, it does have a bit of a learning curve
[01:33] <freaka> Well this is definetely a success story :p
[01:33] <_Aaron_> Dasnipa] [: what was the security fix of the latest kernel?
[01:33] <DBO> _Aaron_, security holes in linux are often patched within an hour of discovery, FAR faster than anyone could write a virus for them
[01:33] <jrib> K^Holtz: :wq should be followed by enter by the way, maybe that is why
[01:33] <K^Holtz> jrib, i have to gert out of vim first
[01:34] <_Aaron_> DBO: yes, but before the discovery, my system may have been compromised!  Who finds the security holes?
[01:34] <pepsi> Seveas,
[01:34] <jrib> K^Holtz: <ESC> :q! <enter>
[01:34] <Dasnipa] [> _Aaron_, consider the alternatives... windows has known security holes that have never been patched...
[01:34] <K^Holtz> jrib got it.. thanks
[01:34] <K^Holtz> how can i start X
[01:34] <_Aaron_> DBO: how do you know that virus writers arent the ones who found the security hole to begin with?
[01:34] <K^Holtz> try to start X
[01:35] <Dasnipa] [> _Aaron_, it should be no huge surprise that security holes exist... nothing is 100% secure
[01:35] <jrib> I'm trying to get antialiased fonts in urxvt.  Essentially I want the same look I have in gnome-terminal.  What font should I tell urxvt to use (I have defaults in gnome-terminal, but I don't know what the defaults are)
[01:35] <DBO> _Aaron_, they may have, but its already been patched, if you wish to continue this, we can in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:35] <oezguer> hi everybody
[01:35] <_Aaron_> Dasnipa] [: ok
[01:35] <ardchoille> K^Holtz: startx
[01:35] <_Aaron_> DBO: ok
[01:35] <oezguer> mpeg .dat ... so i cant play them :( what should i do?
[01:35] <alex-weej> oezguer: explain?
[01:36] <oezguer> i cant play the films  .mpeg   .dat ..... :(
[01:36] <jrib> !mpeg > oezguer
[01:36] <Dasnipa] [> oezguer, windows formats arent installed by default
[01:36] <oezguer> i installed w32codecs..
[01:36] <oezguer> yes jrip
[01:37] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: What are you using to play the files?
[01:37] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Totem?
[01:37] <jrib> oezguer: there are more things you may need to install, make sure you read all of the links
[01:37] <nekostar> look at it this way
[01:37] <oezguer> xwine gxine vlc mplay totem
[01:37] <nekostar> if you set your system to automagically dl // install stuff
[01:37] <johlin> how do I unzip all zipfiles in one directory at once? I want them in the same folder. I tried unzip *.zip, but it just says blabla file not matched
[01:37] <oezguer> i install all of them i think, from wiki... i ve read all
[01:37] <nekostar> at least you dont have to reboot 99.99999% of the time
[01:38] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: For totem support install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg through apt-get or synaptic
[01:38] <nekostar> johlin, are u in gui at all ?
[01:38] <oezguer> apt-get  i did it
[01:38] <ketetha_> is there a way you can stop ubuntu from making those squiggly lines telling you you spelled something wrong on gaim and stuff it annoys me and i misspell alot when im not concentrating
[01:38] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: The FFMPEG plugin supports most windows formats
[01:38] <johlin> nekostar: no, terminal
[01:38] <nekostar> ah
[01:38] <nekostar> dam lol
[01:38] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: You can start spelling right. :)
[01:39] <oezguer> should i restart my pc?
[01:39] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: There should be a setting in gaim to turn those off tho.
[01:39] <johlin> nekostar: oh wait, unzip '*.zip' (notize the
[01:39] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ketetha_: Disable spell check in Gaim
[01:39] <oezguer> thanx for every helps
[01:39] <johlin> ') worked
[01:39] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, very smart
[01:39] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: Nope
[01:39] <nekostar> o nice
[01:39] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: Just reload totem
[01:39] <nekostar> good show johlin :)
[01:39] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, haha ok =]  that made me laugh :)
[01:39] <ketetha_> [TkB] FIRESIDE, thankks
[01:39] <oezguer> oki FIRESIDE
[01:40] <Stormx2> hey folks. Had a partition, originally fat. I reformatted it into FAT, and theres now some data on there. Any way I can recover data from the previous state?
[01:40] <danfg> anyone using a GeForce 6*** video card?
[01:40] <oezguer> from terminal: sudo apt-get install totem  right?
[01:40] <oezguer> FIRESIDE
[01:40] <K^Holtz> OK, i need a lot of help now.. can anyone take some time out to help me get a graphical interface working again?
[01:41] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ketetha_: Gaim Preferences -> Interface -> Conversations -> Message Text -> Highlight Misspelled words
[01:41] <ketetha_> a couple days in gaim i asked for it to log all my conversations where are these saved?
[01:41] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: No
[01:41] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[01:41] <ketetha_> [TkB] FIRESIDE, merci
[01:41] <alex-weej> ketetha_: ~/.gaim/logs
[01:41] <roshan_s> K^Holtz: What is the problem like?
[01:41] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: Tools->Settings (or CTRL+P in gaim) under "conversations->Messages" there's a checkbox for "mark spelling errors" (I might have mis-translated)
[01:41] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: not really hard to find tbh.
[01:41] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, thankss :)
[01:42] <ketetha_> alex-weej, thanksss
[01:42] <oezguer> FIRESTONE: i did it  , but terminal says, u have also newste version
[01:42] <K^Holtz> roshan_s: i ran the command md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum then did sudo nvidia-glx-config enable .. then restarted X but X will not load up again
[01:42] <natan-> Anyone have experience with cron? do i need to enable it somewhere?
[01:42] <danfg> guys, anyone using a GeForce 6xx video card?
[01:42] <oezguer> FIRESIDE : sorry i wrote firestone,
[01:43] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> oezguer: Then you are good, you should be able to play most any format movie/music file in a GStreamer application now(e.g. Totem, Rhythmbox)
[01:43] <oezguer> FIRESIDE : sorry :)
[01:43] <Stormx2> K^Holtz: What did you do? :P
[01:43] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> np :)
[01:43] <richcollins> Is anyone interested in answering this wireless question:
[01:43] <richcollins> http://guruza.com/question/231/reward-10.00
[01:43] <oezguer> oki FIRESIDE+
[01:43] <K^Holtz> Stormx2: i ran the command md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum then did sudo nvidia-glx-config enable .. then restarted X but X will not load up again
[01:44] <Stormx2> K^Holtz: Maybe try sudo nvidia-glx-config-disable ?
[01:44] <Stormx2> sorry, scrap the last dash.
[01:44] <roshan_s> K^Holtz: Which gfx card do you have?
[01:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Hold on before you do that
[01:44] <K^Holtz> roshan_s its a nvidia TNT2 so its a nvidia-glx-legacy card
[01:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Send me a copy of your X.org log
[01:44] <GStubbs43> is sudo aptitude upgrade for upgrading Ubuntu and apps, or is it something else?
[01:44] <ToHellWithGA> i'm having trouble with sed.  how can i escape an apostrophe in an expression like 's/blah\'s story/my tale/g'?
[01:45] <AJ004> my evolution crashed and bug buddy doesnt know what module is broken to report
[01:45] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE thats a lil hard since its on the other computer.. which is just bash right now
[01:45] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: Use ""'s around the expression, then no escaping will be required
[01:45] <AJ004> which module is the main inbox of evolution?
[01:45] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: ...
[01:45] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Can I SSH into your machine to look at it?
[01:45] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: im sorry, if theres a way to do that for u, then tell me how.. im new to this
[01:46] <ketetha_> i cant find ~/gaim/logs
[01:46] <ketetha_> what is the ~ for
[01:46] <oezguer> Fireside: it doesnt work :( but thanx for help, and thanx for other friends
[01:46] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE i dont exactly have ssh servers set up
[01:46] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ketetha_: ~ is an alias for your home DIR
[01:46] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: It's easy, you can do it fast
[01:46] <ketetha_> [TkB] FIRESIDE, i knew that. i really did :)
[01:46] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: lol
[01:47] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: it might be ~/.gaim/logs
[01:47] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE is there another way to go about this
[01:47] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Uhmm...
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> ay what would the be fastest way to send a file in linux from one computer to anothe r
[01:47] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, i dont have a .gaim in my home directoryyy
[01:47] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Lemme think
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> windows pc to linux box
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> without using ftp
[01:47] <phire> samba
[01:47] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: What kind of machine are you on now?
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> not on the same network
[01:47] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: OS-wise?
[01:47] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: are you sure? Directories (and files) that start with . are hidden. Type ls -a in a terminal in your home directory and you might be amazed. :)
[01:48] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE this is a windows box
[01:48] <digitalhav0c> dont want to use aim
[01:48] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Ok
[01:48] <phire> Setup a web server
[01:48] <roshan_s> K^Holtz: [Tkb] FIRESIDE: How would you recommend doing a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and selecting the nvidia driver?
[01:48] <oezguer> goodnight
[01:48] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, haha seroiusly. funnn stuff. okkk im ready to be amazed
[01:48] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: No, gotta figure WHY it's crashing first
[01:48] <firebird619> Is there a program for modem on hold. I have dial-up and with Windows I have a program that notifies me when someone is calling. I was wondering if there is a similar program I can get for linux. I am running Dapper Drake.
[01:48] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, is there a way to make them seen
[01:48] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Does the other machine have a floppy?
[01:48] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: seen where?
[01:49] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE no
[01:49] <ToHellWithGA> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: that's not the case.  i think bash and sed are disagreeing on how to interpret \'
[01:49] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: CD-R/W?
[01:49] <cobelloy> anyone know why I would lose sound after I hook up to a network via usb ethernet converter?
[01:49] <salah> wow, OpenOffice REALLY needs to fix it's image-function
[01:49] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, seen in my homefolder where they arent hidden. i am amzed. and i see .gaim too =] 
[01:49] <cobelloy> speakers make clicking noises
[01:49] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE yes
[01:49] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, so i cd .gaim
[01:49] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: in the gnome file browser? Try CTRL+H. Not sure about that tho.
[01:49] <ketetha_> right?
[01:49] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, thanks
[01:49] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: When you use single quotes it will automatically escape anything inside it
[01:49] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: Did it work?
[01:49] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: OK, first login to a BASH shell
[01:50] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, yess it did. how di make them go away haha
[01:50] <danfg> my nvidia drivers won't work with a geforce 6200
[01:50] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: That's how good I am at guessing. :)
[01:50] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: We're gonna burn a copy of your X.org log
[01:50] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: I would guess CTRL+H again
[01:50] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE how about if i told u the error i get when i start X?
[01:50] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: What is it?
[01:50] <phire> I Setup x-sensor last night, and when I came in this morning the computer was dead. does x-sensor log the temptures?
[01:51] <ToHellWithGA> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: sed -e "s/Thelonious Monk - Monk\'s Blues \[1968\] \\//g"
[01:51] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, haha ok i'll try that =]  i found my logs of conversation. i have a questin. is it possilbe to download more smileys from gaim?
[01:51] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: So, what is the error?
[01:51] <ToHellWithGA> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: i'm trying to remove "Thelonious Monk - Monk's Blues [1968] \"
[01:51] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: I really would not know. What's wrong with the ones that are already there? Are you 14 or something? </sarcasm> :p
[01:51] <Sasuke> can someone please help me!
[01:52] <K^Holtz> (WW) NVIDIA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:0) found   (EE) No devides detected
[01:52] <K^Holtz> Fatal server error: no screens found
[01:52] <BlueEagle> sasuke: Not unless you tell us what the problem is.
[01:52] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: is that a folder, file, what?
[01:52] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: Oh, hehe, nm
[01:52] <Sasuke> i need to know why i cant install anything i download off the internet?
[01:52] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: Being stupid
[01:52] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, haha your sarcasm has hit the spot. my 13th birthday is in 6 days. so ya i have a short excitement span. i need new prettier smiles
[01:52] <syth> Can anyone help me with my ATI card? I followed the ubuntu binary ATI driver setup but no luck
[01:52] <K^Holtz> XIO fatal IO error 104 (connection reset by peer) on X server after 0 requests with 0 events remaining
[01:52] <Stormx2> Yay for young people :D
[01:52] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> ToHellWithGA: That SHOULD work....not sure though
[01:53] <BlueEagle> k^holtz: lspci|grep VGA
[01:53] <ketetha_> stromx2, yay us younguns rock the house =] 
[01:53] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: That error message wont help
[01:53] <BlueEagle> k^holtz: You should get a line like: 0000:02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation... the numbers in front are the ones you need.
[01:53] <KrisWood> does anyone know if there is a binary of ventrilo server for ubuntu?
[01:53] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: I'll need your log
[01:53] <K^Holtz> BlueEagle: 0000:01:00.0
[01:53] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Instead of burning it though, you could just email it now that I think about it
[01:54] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE ok, how?
[01:54] <BlueEagle> k^holtz: I see. well then atleat you've got the right bus id.
[01:54] <BlueEagle> k^holtz: have you put your xorg.conf on pastebin yet?
[01:54] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Well I used to pride myself at being a young php coder but now I'm 15 and everyone's doing it. Still, I guess I have an advantage
[01:54] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: First, you need to backup the log file, for that, log into a bash shell and "cd /var/log"
[01:54] <BlueEagle> !pastebin > k^holtz
[01:54] <K^Holtz> BlueEagle: i cant, im on a separate box
[01:54] <K^Holtz> BlueEagle i cant get to pastebin
[01:55] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: You in the shell yet?
[01:55] <ketetha_> stormx2, heh well im 12 going on 13 and no ones doing it =]  so hopefully when i become 15 i will be an expert. a huge advantage. imagine if you keep doing it. and you rlike 60. haha =] 
[01:55] <fjr122> i need some mounting help
[01:55] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE ive been
[01:55] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: In /var/log?
[01:55] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE yes
[01:55] <ketetha_> stormx2, then you can share it with your grandkids. right now i dont know much. hopefully linux will teach me alot as i use it
[01:55] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Haha... yeah... What do you do, php and site work?
[01:56] <ketetha_> stormx2: i really dont nkow what php knows at the moment. just html
[01:56] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Ok, do this then "mkdir ~/xtemp" then "cp Xorg* ~/xtemp"
[01:56] <aLPHa_LeaK>  n8
[01:56] <ketetha_> !tell fjrl22 about mounting
[01:56] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Linux teaches you a lot about how computers really work and communicate and stuff... Gets you to the roots of the internet. You can base a lot of programming knowledge on that.
[01:56] <cobelloy> can someone help me get sound back on my laptop, it stopped working while connected to the network
[01:56] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE done
[01:57] <firebird619> Is there a program for modem on hold for Linux. I have dial-up and with Windows I have a program that notifies me when someone is calling. I was wondering if there is a similar program I can get for linux. I am running Dapper Drake.
[01:57] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Well its good that you're getting into linux and that at a young age ^_^
[01:57] <Katmando> I installed ubuntu the kde on top.  It gnome apps do not appear right until I launch gnome-settings-daemon.
[01:57] <syth> Can anyone help me with my ATI problem?
[01:57] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: K, now restore your old Xorg.conf file so you can use GNOME again
[01:57] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old is in there
[01:57] <Katmando> What is the best why to launch this automatically
[01:57] <ketetha_> stormx2, ya! i've had it for like 2 days and i already know alot of things. but im getting tired of sounding stupid on this chat majiggy. becuase like when i'm wiht my friends im the smartest person in the world but hwen i get on here im like underdog and ask a whole lot of questions when the answers are under my nose
[01:57] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE how do i restore the old one?
[01:58] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Disable the NVidia driver
[01:58] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i love how linux make it so you have to be familar with the terminal and stuff like that
[01:58] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its alright. From what I can tell you seem quite articulate. Its no big deal. The trick with ubuntu is just to stick with it for about 2 weeks and then it becomes easier than windows...
[01:58] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: But FIRST
[01:58] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You don't have to, its just quicker ^_^
[01:58] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE sudo nvidia-glx-config disable ?
[01:58] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: There seems to be a way to install new smiley themes yes. I would suggest you head to gaims homepage for instructions.
[01:58] <syth> Can anyone help me with my ATI problem?
[01:58] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: (a link can be found in the help menu)
[01:59] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Yes, but first copy your old xorg.conf file to ~/xtemp
[01:59] <Gregy1727> syth, elaborate. there are a lot of ati problems :P
[01:59] <ketetha_> Stormx2, heh. how long have you used ubuntu. my sister woudlnt let me download it for a day. bu thten i went ahead and did and accidently deleted windows during partioning. but oh well. :)
[01:59] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: "cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~/xtemp"
[01:59] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE didn ti do that w/ the cp command already?
[01:59] <Stormx2> Right, its 1am and im tired.
[01:59] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, HEHE YES! thank youuuu :)
[01:59] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Only your logs
[01:59] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: This is your config file
[01:59] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=746976&group_id=235&func=browse perhaps
[01:59] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Uh oh you're in trouble ^_^
[01:59] <natan-> !anacron
[01:59] <ubotu> I know nothing about anacron
[01:59] <syth> gregy1727, I followed the guide on how to install the binary ATI driver. It appears to be loaded correctly, but my system is still using the Mesa gpls, and no direct rendering is still present
[02:00] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Been using it since breezy. I picked up hoary and fedora core 3 about a year ago but never really got going.
[02:00] <ketetha_> Stormx2: she didnt take to me for a day. but its so cool how the image editor on ubuntu is what pepole pay 100s of dollars for on windows. that cracks me up
[02:00] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> syth: How did you install it?
[02:00] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Now I only boot into windows for graphics work.
[02:00] <krism> syth : did you comment out the "dri" module in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[02:00] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> syth: Using the apt-get install method doesn't work well
[02:00] <ketetha_> Stormx2, my sister got a free breezy cd from a UTD program for young egineers :) i'll never see windows again i dont think. except to print stuff. which pisses me off just a tad
[02:01] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: did you finish?
[02:01] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Well I never get on with the gimp. I'm really a total Paint Shop Pro 7 fan and theres no beating that for me.
[02:01] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, thank you forr all your hepp
[02:01] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE ok, i just ran the disable command
[02:01] <Stormx2> ketetha_: What printer?
[02:01] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You might want to check out turboprint.
[02:01] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Did you bakup your config file first?
[02:01] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE yes
[02:01] <ketetha_> Stormx2: are you serious? its the same thing! i have lexmark x6170 and i dont hink it supports it. whats turboprint
[02:01] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: KK
[02:01] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE startx ?
[02:01] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:02] <ketetha_> stormx2, its kind of having our own conversation when there is everyone around us. funn stuff
[02:02] <sharms> Stormx2: If you want to get started using the gimp: http://www.gimptalk.com/
[02:02] <K^Holtz> Failed to start the X server [Tkb] FIRESIDE
[02:02] <sharms> Stormx2: many useful tutorials
[02:02] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Turboprint is some non-free (as in freedom) printer drivers for linux. You can't get to the high and super quality settings but medium for me is about the same as high on windows
[02:02] <Gregy1727> would updating the kernel help kernel object problems? the module compiled on the current kernel but modprobe returns errors.
[02:02] <GStubbs43> Can you just single-click  on an icon to open it? How?
[02:02] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Uhmmm....
[02:02] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: OK
[02:02] <Stormx2> sharms: Nah... Sorry. I tried using it for a month and could never get started. Just like PSP8 really...
[02:03] <syth> tkbfireside, i did used the apt-get method
[02:03] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: "sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[02:03] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Do you know how to use vi?
[02:03] <fiftyfour123> does anyone know where i can download kernel debian packages?
[02:03] <syth> gregy1727, i updated to the latest kernel before installing the ATi driver
[02:03] <LjL> Stormx2: it might run in wine
[02:03] <ketetha_> Stormx2, wait so when you say driver its something you install and it goes through that to connect it to linux?
[02:03] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Ask ubotu about printing. Also check turboprint.de, see if your printer is supported
[02:03] <Assattack> can someone here help me with a resolution problem?
[02:03] <teimu> can i use chown to assign ownership to two different (non-grouped) users?
[02:03] <ToHellWithGA> !sed
[02:03] <Flannel> K^Holtz: use nano.  sudo nano /etc/
[02:03] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[02:03] <ketetha_> Stormx2, will do
[02:03] <fiftyfour123> does anyone know where i can download kernel debian packages?
[02:03] <Gregy1727> syth, that was a seperate question :P
[02:03] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE no.. i know nano
[02:03] <LjL> fiftyfour123: come again?
[02:03] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Well then use it instead of VI, just my preference
[02:04] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Sort of yeah. Basicly it gives you another instance of your printer in the printers list.
[02:04] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE now what?
[02:04] <lz1gjd> !ati
[02:04] <fiftyfour123> i need a deb packages of the kernel for my ubunutu installation to install on my firewire hd
[02:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:04] <fiftyfour123> package**
[02:04] <Stormx2> LjL: Did try that. But I lost my previous config and I can't get it to install on my new one.
[02:04] <Gregy1727> syth i had the same problem under breezy, but i restarted and it went away. it was a non existant problem in dapper.
[02:04] <fjr122> is there anyone that cen help me with mounting an ntfs drive to write...
[02:04] <ketetha_> Stormx2, wait do you not speak only english? was that dutch you gave me?
[02:04] <Stormx2> Anyway. Really must run! School in 6 hours.
[02:04] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Look for: Section "Device" in the file
[02:04] <Stormx2> ketetha_: I speak only english. That website is german.
[02:04] <unstablesob> !ntfs > fjr122
[02:04] <Stormx2> Well, based in germany.
[02:05] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Then find the "Driver" line under it.
[02:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, oh fun. i speak spanish and english. it doesnt support my printer. thanks though
[02:05] <fiftyfour123> does anyone know where i can download kernel debian packages?
[02:05] <Stormx2> Shame
[02:05] <Stormx2> !tell ketetha_ about printing
[02:06] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE im there.. Identifier "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon RV100 QY [Radeo 7000/VE$   Driver "nv" BusID "PCI:0:5:0"
[02:06] <sharms> fiftyfour123: why would you want to?
[02:06] <LjL> fiftyfour123: http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/linux-image-2.6.15-26-386_2.6.15-26.44_i386.deb
[02:06] <ketetha_> Stormx2, the best thing about linux is this chat :) i could stay on here for a day or two without checking myspace or getting on gaim
[02:06] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE driver is nv.. it was nvidia before we set it back
[02:06] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: You have a Radeon card in there???
[02:06] <teimu> can i use chown to assign ownership to two different (non-grouped) users?
[02:06] <Assattack> sorry to use caps but I'M STUCK ON 640x480 AND IT SUCKS!!!
[02:06] <ketetha_> Stormx2, soon i'm going to be able to help people with their problems! :)
[02:06] <sharms> fiftyfour123: you don't need to download kernel packages, no matter what anyone told you
[02:06] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE its a nvidia card.. i think it got reset when i ran that md5checksum command
[02:06] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Looks like the BusID is wrong
[02:07] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Try changing it to "PCI:0:1:0"
[02:07] <LjL> fiftyfour123: to find that, i typed "apt-cache search linux". when i found the relevant package, i typed "apt-cache show linux-image-2.6.15". the "Filename" line in the output told me where, in an Ubuntu mirror, i would find the file. then i just prefixed the hostname of an Ubuntu mirror to create a full URL.
[02:07] <fjr122> i followed this tutorial http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Mount_NTFS_volumes_with_write_support
[02:07] <sharms> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: no.
[02:07] <Assattack> can anyone lend me a hand?
[02:07] <porkpie> Guy's just installed ubuntu server and installed ssh server but I don't seem to be able to ssh in .....??  any ideas please
[02:07] <fiftyfour123> how else would i boot off my firewire hd, i need a newer kernel to do it
[02:07] <fjr122> and now its a bit botched
[02:07] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> sharms: ???
[02:07] <sharms> K^Holtz: run lspci then pick the proper busid
[02:07] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> sharms: THAT IS THE PROPER ONE
[02:07] <Gregy1727> guys when trying to compile the ltmodem module both from restricted modules and from source the compilation goes well, but when i get to modprobing ltserial it gives me an error about my ltserial.ko. would updating the kernel help?
[02:08] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> sharms: She lspci'ed earlier
[02:08] <sharms> Gotcha
[02:08] <ketetha_> wait so Seveas is like an operator for this XChat
[02:08] <marcus> Quick Question? Is there a way to change the background inside the K-menu?
[02:08] <Assattack> someone who's good with display drivers should IM me to figure this resolution problem out
[02:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Hehe yeah... I used to do that all the time here
[02:08] <Redman276> ok  i have a  ? ,  cant the server edition cd    be set up to be  a NAS  like  freeNAS ?
[02:08] <LjL> ketetha_: X-Chat is just a program (which not all of us are using). this is IRC (Internet Relay Chat), in particular we're on the Freenode network
[02:08] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Finished?
[02:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Sense of community at ubuntu is absolutely astounding... ^.^ really brilliant.
[02:09] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Must dash though. Nice talking to ya :D
[02:09] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE He* but yea, i changed the busID.. do i change driver to nvidia again or leave it as nv ?
[02:09] <Stormx2> Bye everyone.
[02:09] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Leave it for now
[02:09] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Now try restarting X
[02:09] <LjL> Stormx2: have you tried with the alternative wine repositories perhaps? they have newer versions of wine, might be luckier
[02:09] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:09] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: ok, I figured out how to install new smiley themes if you're interested.
[02:09] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE failed
[02:10] <ketetha_> Stormx2, BYEE! really nice talking to youu
[02:10] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: ARRGGGH!!!
[02:10] <ketetha_> Ljl, ohh i see :)
[02:10] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE should i look for something in the server output ?
[02:10] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: yes
[02:10] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, haha i was jus tlook into that. OF course im interested =] 
[02:10] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Give me any lines that begin with (!!)
[02:10] <ReleaseX> with totem-xine, sound works great under stereo sound, when i switch to 5.1 it tells me "An error occurred The audio device is busy. Is another application using it?"
[02:10] <Rick_kinda_newbi> I've installed nm_applet but when I launch nothing happens
[02:11] <kaot> Rick_kinda_newbi: cat ~/.xsession-errors
[02:11] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: head over to like http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1475948&group_id=235&atid=746976 and near the bottom on the right side you'll find a "Download" link. That will download a file that ends with .tar.gz (i recomend putting it in your ~/.gaim directory for safe keeping.
[02:11] <Rick_kinda_newbi> thanks kaot
[02:11] <GStubbs43> Hi, does anyone know if I can use a Dell AIO 944 Printer wirelessly with Ubuntu?
[02:11] <marcus> Is there a way to change the background inside the K-menu?
[02:11] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE there are only warnings and errors.. they are what i told u before .. the one about the no matching device section with (busID PCI:1:0:0) and No devices detected and no screens detected
[02:12] <firebird619> What can I do to get tvtime to work with digital speakers, or is there another program that does work with digital speakers that I could download?
[02:12] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Hmmm...
[02:12] <lz1gjd> could any1 help me with my problem, i followed the binarydrivershow2 to configure my ati x800gto pciexp card with ubuntu dapper, but i can not get 3d accell, in xorg logs it says "(EE) fglrx(0): incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work" ? how do i fix this ???
[02:12] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Try deleting the busID line for now....might be screwing it up
[02:12] <syth> gregy1727, I restarted and still have no luck
[02:12] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: then head to the ~/.gaim directory with your file browser and locate the .tar.gz file. Now open Gaim and hit CTRL+P to open the preferences window. Go to Conversations->Smiley themes. Now simply drag the .tar.gz file over to the gaim settings window and voila.
[02:12] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, ok thanks! i dont really understand how the downloading works on dapper yet. i've always avoided it by getting the things that were in the synaptic packages or whatever so should i save to dik or open with archive manager
[02:13] <Sasuke> blueEagle
[02:13] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, OH OK! nevermind the last message
[02:13] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: save to disk.
[02:13] <BlueEagle> :)
[02:13] <BlueEagle> sasuke: yes.
[02:13] <BlueEagle> ?
[02:13] <ketetha_> It saved to Desktop so i should move it to .gaim
[02:13] <Assattack> can anyone help me with a display problem?
[02:13] <Sasuke> How do i install programs i download from the internet?
[02:13] <Sasuke> every time i try i get an error
[02:13] <Gregy1727> It took me a week to get it following all of the guides, syth. made me forever hate ati. I used the rpm packages available from the ATI website.
[02:13] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE that worked.. wow
[02:13] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: I would recomend you do that because I think gaim needs access to it and having it on the desktop just makes for clutter.
[02:14] <LjL> Sasuke: it completely depends on the program. but first off, are you *sure* the program you've gotten from the net can't be obtained from an Ubuntu repository instead?
[02:14] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, ahhh okkk
[02:14] <Gregy1727> keep in mind i dont have a network connection on linux, either ;)
[02:14] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Good
[02:14] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: I might be wrong tho and it could be possible to delete the file after you have installed it.
[02:14] <Sasuke> yea im sure
[02:14] <Assattack> wow thanks for all the help here
[02:14] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: We still aren't done though
[02:14] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE i know that :(
[02:14] <syth> gregy1727, so you can't guide me to getting mine to work?
[02:14] <Assattack> *sarcasm*
[02:14] <GStubbs43> No one knows if it will work?
[02:14] <LjL> Sasuke: so you positively know that you have Universe and Multiverse enabled, and that the program you need is not there.  fine then, what program is it and what does the file it came as look like?
[02:14] <Gregy1727> syth, pm me
[02:14] <kaot> hm.
[02:15] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: I need you to send me a email with the backuped xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log file
[02:15] <Gregy1727> if you don't mind.
[02:15] <cwillu> what do I need to do to make cups printer sharing work automatically (i.e,. near-zero config on other machines, broadcast, whatever)?
[02:15] <kaot> someone should log assattack, and use that to write a "How not to ask for help" guide
[02:15] <lz1gjd> my card works perfectly with opensuse amd64, tried ubuntu64 now the usual ubuntu and still no go
[02:15] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: actually it appears that you can remove the .tar.gz file after it's been installed.
[02:15] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: so you can install it from your desktop and then just delete it when you're done.
[02:15] <BlueEagle>  :)
[02:15] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, ahh ok! thanks it workeddd! YAY =] 
[02:15] <syth> gregy1727, I pm'ed you but no response from you
[02:16] <Enverex> Is anyone here running the AMD64 version of Ubuntu?
[02:16] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: :)
[02:16] <Sasuke> LjL,I wanted to install x-chat
[02:16] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: What happened there?
[02:16] <ketetha_> BlueEagle, they are so cute and small :) hehe
[02:16] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE:  on my linux box
[02:16] <LjL> Sasuke: you mean a newer version than the one that's in the repos, i suppose?
[02:16] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Hehe...had a feeling
[02:16] <ketetha_> ok everyoen im off to study to make my mother happy
[02:16] <ketetha_> BYEE ALL and goodnight. thanks blueeagle!
[02:16] <BlueEagle> sasuke: If you're talking to me please prefix every line with my nick so it highlights in my client. I rarely read the other text (unless I'm bored)
[02:16] <BlueEagle> ketetha_: good night. :)
[02:16] <ketetha_> thanks [tkb] FIRESIDE
[02:16] <ketetha_> byeeeee =] 
[02:16] <Sasuke> there is one in the repos?
[02:16] <roshan_s> Enverex: Yes. What is the problem?
[02:17] <Sasuke> what categorie is it under?
[02:17] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Just started a PM session with you
[02:17] <sharms> !tell Enverex about anyone
[02:17] <ReleaseX> with totem-xine, sound works great under stereo sound, when i switch to 5.1 it tells me "An error occurred The audio device is busy. Is another application using it?"
[02:17] <LjL> Sasuke: just type "apt-cache show x-chat". besides, x-chat comes by default with every Ubuntu installation
[02:17] <SelfHarm> hi folks. just finished installing ubuntu. im a first timer.
[02:18] <sharms> LjL: does xchat, or is it xchat-gnome?
[02:18] <kramerica> SelfHarm: welcome to the wonderful world of Linux
[02:18] <Enverex> sharms, : I'm not a newbie nor do I want to waste my time writing out long questions to people that don't exist
[02:18] <Sanne> SelfHarm: congrats and welcome :)
[02:18] <LjL> sharms: there's both
[02:18] <roshan_s> Enverex: Please ask your question. I use AMD64
[02:18] <sharms> Enverex: at any rate you took the time to put that long sentence, but not the question. Ironic?
[02:18] <Sasuke> Ljl: it says package cannont be found
[02:18] <SelfHarm> is there a shortcut stoke to minimize current window?
[02:18] <Gregy1727> syth: what exactly are the steps you've taken?
[02:19] <SelfHarm> nm
[02:19] <LjL> Sasuke: then you don't really have universe enabled
[02:19] <Redman276> is it possible to install  ubuntu server on a   2gb SD card ?
[02:19] <LjL> !xchat
[02:19] <ubotu> I know nothing about xchat
[02:19] <SelfHarm> same as windows, alt+space  n
[02:19] <LjL> !info xchat
[02:19] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In repository universe, is optional. Version 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 254 kB, installed size 720 kB
[02:19] <Enverex> roshan_s, : Do you have dgens in Synaptic? I'm contemplating whether to use amd64 or x86. I'd go amd64 but I am on Gentoo at the moment and know there are quite a few things that aren't compatible
[02:19] <lasindi[lcps] > Hi all, I have an RPM that is compiled for x86 (i.e. not 64-bit) that I want to run on my 64-bit machine. I'm trying to convert it to .deb with alien, but it gives me errors that the build architecture for the RPM is not AMD64. Is there a way to do this conversion, or am I just going to have to suck it up and install 32-bit Ubuntu?
[02:19] <LjL> !tell Sasuke about universe
[02:19] <sharms> Enverex: you can search our AMD64 packages at packages.ubuntu.com
[02:19] <roshan_s> ljl: Xchat used to come with Breezy. They removed it in dapper
[02:20] <sharms> it is xchat-gnome, the package name
[02:20] <LjL> roshan_s: oh. well, anyway xchat-gnome is in main, and xchat is in universe
[02:20] <syth> Gregy1727, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI I tried every method in that link
[02:20] <LjL> sharms: there's also plain xchat in universe if you don't want the gnome flavor
[02:20] <sharms> LjL: yeah I use that one :)
[02:20] <roshan_s> Enverex: Is that the Sega emulator? I have it. In future, you can get more info on packages by going to, for example, http://packages.ubuntu.com/dgen
[02:21] <Enverex> How many things are x86 but not amd64? Lots of just a few now?
[02:21] <sharms> Enverex: flash and some multimedia codecs are the main issues
[02:21] <Enverex> hmm, I see pearpc is still i386 only still
[02:21] <Gregy1727> syth: any error outputs?
[02:22] <LGKeiz> How do you login as superuser on console
[02:22] <LGKeiz> I forgot :x
[02:22] <Enverex> and wine is WAY out of date...
[02:22] <sharms> !tell LGKeiz about sudo
[02:22] <syth> Gregy1727, none
[02:22] <dli> Enverex, since amd64 is the future, it's getting better
[02:22] <roshan_s> Enverex: There are a few things. Apart from the usual suspects (proprietary codecs, etc) I couldn't find most Scheme implementations in amd64. I found drscheme though
[02:22] <syth> Gregy1727, Like I mentioned before it appears the driver was successfully installed
[02:22] <loststar4545> LGKeiz SU
[02:22] <kakalto> where is xine-config?
[02:22] <syth> Gregy1727, But my system is still using Mesa gpls
[02:22] <sharms> roshan_s: now sure how many good scheme implementations are in i386 really
[02:22] <Enverex> dli, : True, but my problem is I want to use some programs that are no-longer developed, so the chance of them being fixed to work on amd64 is non-existant
[02:22] <sharms> syth: did you reboot?
[02:23] <syth> sharms, yes
[02:23] <Sanne> Enverex: in case you don't know, there's a amd64 section on ubuntu forums with also some info on problematic packages.
[02:23] <dli> Enverex, if it's open source, someone might take the old codes and fix them, if it's not, then, try something else
[02:23] <LjL> Sasuke: remember that main+universe+multiverse total (currently) 18827 packages. so you should always make very sure a program you need is *not* in the repos, before venturing to install from source. "apt-cache search <keyword>" can help, though Synaptic has similar search functions too
[02:24] <firebird619> Is there a way to get tvtime to work with digital speakers, or is there a program that does work with digital speakers that I could download?
[02:24] <roshan_s> Enverex: If you want amd64 badly, you can run most programs with ia32-libs or failing that, in a chroot.
[02:24] <Enverex> dli, : I'm not aware of any alternatives to pearpc (mac emulator)
[02:24] <Gregy1727> syth what does fglrxinfo say for you
[02:24] <LGKeiz> It's saying my password is wrong Lol
[02:24] <LGKeiz> And it's not
[02:24] <LGKeiz> o_o
[02:24] <Redman276> whats the system requirements for  server edition  , mainly  install space  requirements
[02:24] <syth> Gregy1727, display: :0.0  screen: 0

[02:24] <Gregy1727> hmm
[02:24] <kaot> LGKeiz: it's just messing with you, trying to get you mad.  keep trying.  resort to threats if necessary.
[02:25] <LjL> Enverex: qemu
[02:25] <Tomatix> nooo! I am stupid, formatted my /home partition and lost all my data :(:( 52 gig lost
[02:25] <sharms> LGKeiz: remember, the password is your password, there is no root password
[02:25] <Gregy1727> it SHOULD be saying ati if it was successfully installed.
[02:25] <LGKeiz> Yeah..
[02:25] <dli> Enverex, pearpc is available for amd64

[02:25] <kramerica> syth: what is the output of: "sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep fglrx" ?
[02:26] <LGKeiz> How would I fix that?
[02:26] <Enverex> dli: Not according to the site that I was pointed to
[02:26] <sharms> LGKeiz: read that msg from ubotu
[02:26] <LjL> !paste
[02:26] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[02:26] <LjL> LGKeiz: run with "sudo"
[02:26] <roshan_s> Tomatix: hang on and don't do anything on your system. It might be possible to recover it.
[02:26] <sharms> I already told him
[02:26] <sharms> he just ignored it
[02:26] <SelfHarm> whats a good partitioning app ?
[02:26] <LGKeiz> oh, sorry. Lo
[02:26] <LjL> SelfHarm: gparted
[02:26] <Tomatix> roshan_s, how :P
[02:26] <dli> Enverex, it's GPL licensed. go to a better site
[02:26] <syth> kramerica, Driver      "fglrx"
[02:26] <kramerica> SelfHarm: gparted
[02:26] <wildman> grrr,,,}
[02:26] <SelfHarm> ty LjL
[02:26] <wildman> I cannot make xchat display the channel/server tabs at the bottom...
[02:26] <LGKeiz> lwoot
[02:26] <LGKeiz> thanks
[02:26] <Tomatix> roshan_s, well, the things inside was not a life-dependant things :P
[02:26] <sharms> hehe
[02:27] <Enverex> dli, : Erm, licence doesn't mean anything. It doesn't compile because it's not 64bit clean
[02:27] <wildman> Tabs location preference says: bottom :-|
[02:27] <kramerica> syth: have you tried: "sudo aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf" ?
[02:27] <wildman> still get them as a column at the left
[02:27] <nathan> how do I view available wireless networks if ubuntu 5.10?
[02:27] <wildman> duch
[02:27] <wildman> duh
[02:27] <Sanne> LGKeiz: I would discourage letting self compiled programs put things into /usr/bin. Those folders should better left under the government of the package manager. Just a warning, though.
[02:27] <dli> Enverex, http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=pearpc
[02:27] <wildman> view->layout->tabs :P
[02:27] <syth> kramerica, I've tried "sudo aticonfig --initial" but no that whole command you pasted
[02:28] <Tomatix> roshan_s, how to recover (=
[02:28] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Oh. You formatted it. I thought a quick undelete might work :-P Go on with your business and kiss your data goodbye
[02:28] <wildman> ah... good old xchat is back :)
[02:28] <Tomatix> okay
[02:28] <kramerica> syth: and you restarted after you tried that?
[02:28] <wildman> Tomatix, did you solve your SATA problems?
[02:28] <LjL> Sanne, LGKeiz: agree with Sanne. one more reason to use checkinstall just to be sure
[02:28] <Tomatix> wildman, yes ;)
[02:28] <Sanne> LGKeiz: if possible, it's better to put those into /usr/local/bin.
[02:28] <LjL> !tell LGKeiz about checkinstall
[02:28] <nathan> how do I view available wireless networks if ubuntu 5.10?
[02:28] <wildman> Tomatix, great! :)
[02:28] <Enverex> dli: Erm, that's Gentoo, not Ubuntu, and it does NOT compile, I'll pastebin the output if you want
[02:28] <Tomatix> wildman, a wise guy told me to mount /dev/evms/sda1 not /dev/sda1
[02:28] <dli> Enverex, if you couldn't compile it in ubuntu, take the gentoo patch, being <testing> means it compiles for most
[02:29] <wildman> Tomatix, oh... so you were using EVMS :P
[02:29] <syth> kramerica, I restarted after issuing the command I tried. but I never tried the one you just pasted
[02:29] <roshan_s> Tomatix: Unless someone else knows how to recover data. If it's important textual data, you can try grepping the disk for it. AFAIK formatting only overwrite the inodes
[02:29] <wildman> Tomatix, and the 'already mounted' was coming fromt eh EVMS system then :P
[02:29] <Enverex> dli: I use packages in ubuntu rather than source
[02:29] <porkpie> Does ubuntu server install a firewall as defaukt
[02:29] <Tomatix> wildman, (=
[02:29] <kramerica> syth: You could give it a try, but what you used should have worked
[02:29] <porkpie> Does ubuntu server install a firewall as default
[02:29] <loststar4545> porkpie i dont think so
[02:29] <LjL> porkpie: just about any linux distribution has a firewall by default: iptables
[02:30] <Tomatix> roshan_s, I had a few programming projects, but not so important...
[02:30] <LjL> !tell porkpie about firewall
[02:30] <dli> Enverex, it builds, and it's open source, so someone can still fix bugs
[02:30] <Gregy1727> syth: that method did not work for me. I had to use dpkg-reconfigure
[02:30] <InnerFIRE> what can i use to compress a .jpg file?
[02:30] <nathan> do I need a certain program to view wireless networks, if so what is it?
[02:30] <Enverex> dli: Why isn't it listed with amd64 on the packages.ubuntu site then?
[02:30] <wildman> InnerFIRE, JPEG is already compressed...
[02:30] <LjL> InnerFIRE: a .jpg file *is* compressed. JPG is a compression format.
[02:31] <LjL> err JPEG
[02:31] <roshan_s> nathan: Try networkmanager
[02:31] <wildman> InnerFIRE, you won't gain much in compressing an already compressed file...
[02:31] <InnerFIRE> well its not compressed enough
[02:31] <syth> Gregy1727, can you show me how to use your method? and also is your video card a mobility ATI in a laptop?
[02:31] <InnerFIRE> i need it for myspace
[02:31] <wildman> InnerFIRE: reduce its size?
[02:31] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> InnerFIRE: ???!!!
[02:31] <wildman> InnerFIRE, in pixels, of course :)
[02:31] <InnerFIRE> yes
[02:31] <LjL> InnerFIRE: then open it up in an image editor, and save it as a strongly-compressed JPEG. you'll lose lots of quality.
[02:31] <dli> Enverex, ubuntu is a distribution for n00bs, even though it has a ubuntu server now
[02:31] <Gregy1727> the one on this comp is radeon.
[02:31] <LjL> dli: who told you that?
[02:31] <wildman> InnerFIRE, I meant, reduce the image size, or its quality, to have a smaller JPEG
[02:31] <Sanne> InnerFIRE: if you recompress it, keep in mind that double compression will reduce quality significantly.
[02:32] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> InnerFIRE: Use GIF or ONG with highest compression....much smaller then JPEG's
[02:32] <Gregy1727> i had no support for X when i started breezy
[02:32] <porkpie> LjL:where is the access controlled from ?  which file do I need to edit to allow local traffic ....I only need to ssh in then I can workout the rest remotely
[02:32] <Gregy1727> it was terminal all the way :
[02:32] <Gregy1727> P
[02:32] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> InnerFIRE: *PNG, not ONG
[02:32] <sharms> anyone know what the package name is for perl imagemagick
[02:32] <dli> Gregy1727, I searched a little, seems like the lucent modem driver builds for 2.4 kernel :)
[02:32] <wildman> sharms, yes, gimme 1' plz
[02:32] <porkpie> LjL:is there a doc on it
[02:32] <alecks> I need a new laptop- anyone have any good sites that do not sell laptops with winders on them?
[02:32] <Enverex> Actually I'm considering switching from Gentoo to Ubuntu (after many years) as it's just... simpler and I don't have to spend all my time compiling things (although I have a little less control)
[02:32] <LjL> porkpie: i'm not an expert with iptables, but i'm sure "iptables tutorial" on google will find a lot of stuff. anyway, for a server, you can probably install shorewall to make your life easy, if you don't want to get into the details of iptables
[02:32] <Gregy1727> dli: i don't understand why others have had success with 2.6.x and i havent :(
[02:32] <jrib> sharms: apt-cache search imagemagick perl
[02:33] <kakalto> on ubuntu, how do _actually_ install xine?
[02:33] <porkpie> OK
[02:33] <kakalto> like... during the './configure' of a program, it can't find xine
[02:33] <kakalto> how do I fix that.
[02:33] <sharms> jrib: just realized my terminal was on a server somewhere, thats why it didnt show up
[02:33] <roshan_s> Enverex: pearpc is not available on amd64, at least as a precompiled package
[02:33] <jrib> kakalto: xine-ui, gxine, totem-xine, pick one :)
[02:33] <ubuntufreak> Does anybody have the drivers for a Sony Clie PEG-NX70V?
[02:33] <ubuntufreak> for windows

[02:34] <wildman> sharms, perlmagick
[02:34] <dli> alecks, of top brands, asus is the only allows you to buy without an OS. HP/compaq/dell has some business models can be ordered with FreeDOS

[02:34] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Hey Burrito!
[02:34] <jrib> kakalto: yes, but they will pull in what they need
[02:34] <wildman> sharms, ;)
[02:34] <kakalto> jrib: well I installed xine-ui, and it only pulled in xine-ui.
[02:34] <dli> Gregy1727, as I suggested, try the compatible version, or luck
[02:34] <Burrito> hi fire
[02:34] <kakalto> jrib: I've been using xine as the backend for amarok and kaffeine since I installed
[02:34] <Burrito> how are you today?
[02:34] <ubuntufreak> Kakalto: I can't find that anywhere elso
[02:34] <wildman> kakalto, you need xine-dev pkgs?
[02:35] <jrib> kakalto: what exactly do you want? libxine-main1 ?
[02:35] <kakalto> wildman: thankyou. my mistake
[02:35] <shpond> Hello

[02:35] <kakalto> =)
[02:35] <wildman> damn similar nicknames ;)
[02:35] <wildman> kakalto, yw ;)
[02:35] <Burrito> been fighting with it for a day now
[02:35] <dli> Gregy1727, 2.4 kernel is smaller (faster) for old machines, but scales worse under high load
[02:35] <porkpie> LjL:I just did an sudo apt-get shorewall install and I got the error Invalid operation shorewall ??
[02:35] <wildman> damn xchat tab completion :P
[02:36] <Rick_kinda_newbi> I'm trying to get nm-applet to launch
[02:36] <LjL> porkpie: that would be "sudo apt-get install shorewall"
[02:36] <tylersmith> For my 64 bit AMD64, I've installed the 32bit version of firefox, java, and flash using instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava There are instructions for installing RealPlayer at that URL, also. On installing RealPlayer, I get a question: "Copying RealPlayer files...configure system-wide symbolic links? [Y/n] :" What does this mean? And what should I do?
[02:36] <wildman> Burrito, which was it?
[02:36] <kakalto> krism: thanks. needed that
[02:36] <kakalto> =p
[02:36] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: That's annoying

[02:36] <krism> ;)
[02:36] <Rick_kinda_newbi> xsession-errors shows UID out of connections
[02:36] <LjL> porkpie: and my personal advice is to use aptitude rather than apt-get, so "sudo aptitude install shorewall"
[02:36] <shpond> I'll find out
[02:36] <Burrito> wildman: lemme link you
[02:36] <alecks> they look nice and they are compact

[02:37] <wildman> ubuntufreak, 'ubotu' is a 'bot', not a real person
[02:37] <dink_> does anyone else have a fuzz going on with this soundcard under dapper drake 6.06 lts
[02:37] <dink_> because I do, and I managed to make the sound card clear while using xmms (alsa-oss selecting hw1)
[02:37] <dink_> how do I apply this setting to the rest of ubuntu
[02:37] <Burrito> btw wildman, I've since changed my smbusers file to say 'burrito = "network user"'
[02:37] <wildman> ubuntufreak, no good in answering him ;)
[02:37] <tylersmith> Wildman: Thanks for your  reply. I just want to run it in my account. In that case should I say "No"??
[02:38] <wildman> I wish FF opens when I click on a damn link... doin it by hand
[02:38] <ubuntufreak> wildman: I know - I wish I could tell it how stupid it was though

[02:39] <Gregy1727> dli, someone on the forums suggested i upgrade to 2.6.17
[02:39] <mazurskie> 1
[02:40] <dink_> just wondering if anyone knows how to make setting changes in xmms apply to the rest of gnome
[02:40] <dink_> I am on dapper drake 6.06 lts
[02:40] <dli> Gregy1727, try that, 2.6.17 is a wonderful release, much better than anything before
[02:40] <wildman> Burrito, dumb question: you are trying to install the client part of samba to be able to connect to a windows (or samba server) machine, right?
[02:40] <dink_> because I am using ac97 chipset for my sound card. and it is fuzzy under this distro, except for when I figure up xmms
[02:40] <Gregy1727> dli, yeah it'll only take a whole five hours to download :P
[02:40] <Enverex> dli: Why is it much better?
[02:41] <dink_> and that is only because I have determined that using alsa-oss with hw (0,1) is the correct setting
[02:41] <kakalto> how can you customise what it says when you go to console login?
[02:41] <Burrito> I am trying to be able to connect to a 'share' on my ubuntu machine from my windows machine
[02:41] <jwise> is there a correct channel for compiz questions, or is this it?

[02:41] <dink_> is ubuntu-sound a valid room?
[02:41] <Burrito> yeah, I installed that
[02:41] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: GNOME Menu Bar -> Places -> Connect to Server
[02:41] <wildman> Burrito, cuz I think u've only installed the client part...
[02:42] <jwise> Flannel, jrib: thanks a bunch!
[02:42] <Burrito> oh really?
[02:42] <wildman> [Tkb] FIRESIDE, it's the otherway round
[02:42] <Burrito> shoot
[02:42] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> wildman: oops, I read wrong
[02:42] <kakalto> like, when you go to console login, it says "ubuntu 6.06 lts <hostname> <tty>"
[02:42] <wildman> the linux machine is the server, not the client :)
[02:42] <kakalto> how can I change that?
[02:42] <Burrito> wildman: correct
[02:42] <Burrito> hmm
[02:42] <nalioth> !ubotu > gstubb43
[02:42] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Now then....
[02:42] <Burrito> the docs I read indicated that this was all I needed to do
[02:43] <Flannel> dink_: doesn't seem to be an official ubuntu channel : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat#head-729211ea4fb3c5b535d3d8a533dbc007c8dbce14
[02:43] <Burrito> docs here
[02:43] <Burrito> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#Samba_Server
[02:43] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: After you install the Samab server, look at System -> Administration -> Shared Folders :)
[02:43] <SelfHarm> whats the difference between regular version and server version?
[02:43] <jrib> Where does gnome-terminal store its profile info?
[02:43] <Burrito> I still don't have the gui installed fireside
[02:43] <kakalto> SelfHarm: regular is for regular people. server is for servers.
[02:43] <dink_> jrib: look for . files in your /home/username directory
[02:43] <dink_> that would be my first guess
[02:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: ???
[02:44] <Burrito> si?
[02:44] <wildman> [Tkb] FIRESIDE, I guess his config already took care of that part...
[02:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: Why not?
[02:44] <wildman> [Tkb] FIRESIDE, have you seen the pastebin?
[02:44] <darkyoshi372> Hi all, I have a problem; Applications seem to like disappearing from my system tray. Gaim and Gmail-Notify are both running, but I have no way of interacting with them
[02:44] <Flannel> SelfHarm: the server install on the alternate CD is just ubuntu-base (with a ssh server) the server ISO has some specialized kernels, as well as some additional install options (pre-installed LAMP, for instance)
[02:44] <dink_> if it isnt there then its going to be in etc. but for instance, .bashrc is where bash config is at
[02:44] <Burrito> just haven't gotten to it yet
[02:44] <dink_> under /home/username
[02:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Ahhh
[02:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> OK then
[02:44] <Flannel> SelfHarm: but, if you install ANY server version, you can just apt-get to a full desktop
[02:44] <wildman> Burrito, [Tkb] FIRESIDE might be right though... you might also need to configure stuff there...
[02:44] <Burrito> plus I think I'll learn more fromt he console
[02:44] <SelfHarm> thanks Flannel
[02:44] <jrib> darkyoshi372: well i've noticed gmail-notify has some error and then decides to quit once in a while
[02:44] <Burrito> hmm
[02:44] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> IANASE(I Am Not A Samba Expert)
[02:44] <Burrito> heh
[02:45] <Burrito> ok, I'll install gnome then
[02:45] <wildman> I didn't play a lot with Samba either... just simple stuff always configured with GUIs :P
[02:45] <wildman> the lazy sysadmin in me ;)
[02:45] <Knorrie> lots of caps here, what's goin on?
[02:45] <darkyoshi372> jrib, this happens to several apps, including Gaim.
[02:45] <wildman> Knorrie, caps?
[02:46] <jrib> darkyoshi372: well gaim hasn't happened to me but I don't use the icon.  My suggestion would be to run it from a terminal and then check for meaningful output once you notice they disappear
[02:46] <wildman> Burrito, tell you what, I'll install Samba on Mandriva and will return to you after comparing the configs
[02:46] <jrib> darkyoshi372: gaim -d happens to run gaim in debugging mode so you can use that to get more info
[02:47] <Burrito> don't I use this to install the gui?
[02:47] <Burrito> apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:47] <Redman271> ewww  mandrivia  :P
[02:47] <Redman271> lol
[02:47] <Knorrie> wildman: capitals
[02:47] <jrib> Burrito: yes
[02:47] <Flannel> Burrito: sudo apt-get but yeah
[02:47] <darkyoshi372> jrib, the problem is that it doesn't often happen.
[02:47] <darkyoshi372> I guess I'll look somwhere else for a solution
[02:47] <Burrito> I'm logged in as root
[02:47] <wildman> Knorrie, ah... lots of deaf ppl speaking ;)
[02:47] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: any chance the panel itself is crashing?
[02:47] <Knorrie> wildman: hehe
[02:47] <wildman> Burrito, damn... wiped my Mandriva VM :-|
[02:47] <wildman> Redman271, hehe >-] 
[02:48] <sharms> anyone know a good media frontend in the repositories (in the vein of mythtv and freevo)
[02:48] <darkyoshi372> cwillu, it usually happens when I switch resolutions.
[02:48] <Redman271> im installing server on a  1gb sdcard
[02:48] <cwillu> and/or, do you have any other panels running on that machine (multiple logons, remote boots pointing to it, etc)
[02:48] <Redman271> so im in same  boat ,  experimentation is best ;)
[02:48] <darkyoshi372> not that I know of....
[02:48] <wildman> Redman271, do you plan to run a server off a Flash-based storage device?
[02:48] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: no, the switching resolution might have a similar effect of what I'm looking for
[02:48] <SelfHarm> whenever I try an apt-get, i get permissions error "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)"
[02:48] <Redman271> thats the idea
[02:48] <firebird619> What is a good alternative to TVtime that will work with digital speakers?
[02:48] <wildman> Redman271, do you know they have a limit in the number of times they can be written?
[02:48] <phire> woot, I managed to get my screen res to 1280x1024 at 60hz, but I don't like 60hz, has anyone managed to get dapper into 1152x864?
[02:49] <K^Holtz> [Tkb] FIRESIDE: thank you for your help earlier, i tried to contact you via dialogue when i returned, maybe you didnt receive it.. but thank you very much
[02:49] <wildman> Redman271, careful with that limit ;)
[02:49] <Redman271> yes
[02:49] <Burrito> when I tried that I get an error that says 'E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-desktop'
[02:49] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> K^Holtz: Np
[02:49] <Flannel> SelfHarm: you have another package manager open, it sounds like.
[02:49] <Redman271> the  object at hand is   bootable  SD card then   ide  drives for storage
[02:49] <darkyoshi372> cwillu, do you know how I can get those icons back, or even better, to stop them from going away?
[02:49] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: not really, just having ideas
[02:49] <SelfHarm> oh yeah. i have updates running. thanks again, Flannel.
[02:49] <[Tkb] FIRESIDE> Burrito: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"?
[02:49] <Flannel> Burrito: which repositories do you have enabled?
[02:49] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: do they come back if you kill gnome-panel?
[02:49] <phire> !fixres
[02:49] <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
[02:49] <darkyoshi372> I'll try
[02:50] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: alternatively, do they disappear when you do it?
[02:50] <wildman> Redman271, would you mind share your experience with me (http://fabman.wordpress.com/, "The desktop computer..." article) afterwards?
[02:50] <Redman271> the  best that i can
[02:50] <Malin> where can i find linux-headers for 2.6.15-21 kernel?
[02:50] <Malin> there are none at packages.ubuntu.com
[02:50] <darkyoshi372> cwillu, now only one application is left.
[02:50] <Burrito> fireside yes
[02:50] <Redman271> i found  FreeNAS  but  would rather  impliment ubuntu to  kinda do the same
[02:50] <Burrito> flannel, I don't know
[02:50] <wildman> Redman271, clever decision
[02:50] <darkyoshi372> I think that two just disappeared
[02:50] <cwillu> Malin: if that's the one you have installed via the normal ubuntu update, then linux-headers should work I believe
[02:50] <Burrito> how can I tell?
[02:50] <Flannel> Burrito: check your sources.list
[02:51] <K^Holtz> Is there a way to tell if i have video acceleration enabled?
[02:51] <tafs> anyone else running ubuntu on an iBook?
[02:51] <Flannel> Burrito: mostly, do you have more than just the CD enabled?
[02:51] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: okay;  windows has had the same problem before (things not reappearing in the tray after explorer crashes)
[02:51] <Malin> cwillu, the situation is a bit complicated
[02:51] <wildman> K^Holtz, glxinfo | grep vendor
[02:51] <wildman> K^Holtz, remember? ;)
[02:51] <K^Holtz> wildman: unfortunately no, i didnt know that had to do w/ acceleration
[02:51] <Malin> i wanted to install usb-eagle to be able to use my adsl connection
[02:51] <wildman> K^Holtz, if you see something like 'nvidia' (IIRC, u had one of those), then u are accelereated
[02:51] <fowlduck> where can I get the official ubuntu font for windows?
[02:51] <Malin> i need proper linux-headers to do so
[02:51] <fowlduck> !font
[02:51] <ubotu> fonts is Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, gsfonts-x11 - Microsoft fonts: install the msttcorefonts package
[02:52] <darkyoshi372> cwillu: This happens much more often than explorer crashing. I don't want to switch to KDE, but I don't know...
[02:52] <Burrito> I don't think so
[02:52] <Malin> i installed ubuntu from linux+ dvd
[02:52] <Burrito> can I pm you what I have in there?
[02:52] <Malin> it showed it was some beta
[02:52] <Burrito> I don't want to flood it in here
[02:52] <cwillu> malin:  dapper itself probably unless it's a recent dvd
[02:52] <Flannel> !paste
[02:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[02:52] <K^Holtz> wildman:  i dont see any lines like that.. there is a client and server verion of server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation and OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
[02:53] <Malin> cwillu, it's 7/2006
[02:53] <wildman> good K^Holtz: you should have accel enabled then
[02:53] <cwillu> darkyoshi372: sorry, as I said, I'm just shouting idea's, but gnome-panel itself restarting is probably the culprit;
[02:53] <Redman271> my  ultimate goal is  to  put like a 512 mb  BIOS  chip in a  mobo and have an instant  on  embeded  ubuntu
[02:53] <darkyoshi372> Okay, cwillu, thanks for your help!
[02:53] <K^Holtz> wildman: ok, i guess ill try to run tuxracer again.. it seems to crash every time and force me to reboot X since i started trying this
[02:53] <cwillu> Malin: are you running a custom kernel, or was there a specific version of the kernel you _had_ to be running?
[02:53] <wildman> Redman271, do you have access to all that hardware? :)
[02:53] <wildman> K^Holtz, wait...
[02:53] <Burrito> oops
[02:54] <Burrito> lol
[02:54] <K^Holtz> wildman: ok
[02:54] <Burrito> I posted it under your name
[02:54] <Burrito> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17793
[02:54] <Flannel> Malin: Ubuntu doesn't have 2.6.15-21 in it
[02:54] <Malin> mine does
[02:54] <wildman> K^Holtz, run glxgears, do you see the turning 3-color gears?
[02:54] <Redman271> eh not currently ,  but   eeprom burners are a dime a  dozen and    512 mb chips were like $40  from mouser electronics
[02:54] <K^Holtz> wildman:  yes
[02:55] <Redman271> its  building the  development   system  that is going to be costly
[02:55] <cwillu> malin, one sec, checking something
[02:55] <Malin> uname -r returns 2.6.15-21-386
[02:55] <wildman> K^Holtz, well.. all should be fine then... but it might happen that some programs 'screw' video rez...
[02:55] <Redman271> and  very time consuming
[02:55] <Burrito> did you see it flannel?
[02:55] <Flannel> Burrito: yeah, you don't have hardly any repositories enabled
[02:55] <Burrito> could that be my problem with samba?
[02:55] <wildman> K^Holtz, you shouldn't expect that with all GL progs... but you cannot tell in advance...
[02:55] <K^Holtz> wildman: so if tuxracer doesnt work this time that i try it.. then i might as well just uninstall it?
[02:55] <johnccc> when I was apt-getting a program the installlation failed... No every time I'm trying to install a new program it  also keeps trying to install the failed program. Is there any way I can stop this?
[02:55] <Flannel> Burrito: yeah, you can't 'get' anything, except security updates
[02:55] <Malin> the thing is cannot upgrade my system because i haven't got my internet connection running on ubuntu, and i cannot run my internet connection because i cannot install it without working linux-headers
[02:56] <Redman271> wildman care to PM  me ?

[02:56] <Burrito> ok, can you guide me to what I need to do to add more?
[02:56] <Phoul> Hello, Is there any reason my performence would be better with xcompmgr enabled
[02:56] <Flannel> !tell Burrito about sources
[02:56] <wildman> Redman271, can u see me?
[02:56] <Phoul> Because without it my windows leave these long trails and with its almost flawless
[02:56] <Phoul> It dont seem to make sence
[02:56] <wildman> Burrito, your nick doesn't help... unless you have something to do with Ariel Ortega ;)
[02:57] <Phoul> anyone?
[02:57] <Flannel> Burrito: eh, I guess you'll have to do easysource.
[02:57] <wildman> K^Holtz, that's up to you...
[02:57] <Flannel> !tell Burrito about easysource
[02:57] <phire> How can I get my screen into 1152x864, its listed in my xorg.conf file, but I can only get to 1280x1024, 1024x768, 800x600 etc
[02:57] <K^Holtz> wildman: well what i meant was will it be a lost cause trying to get it to work?
[02:57] <cwillu> Malin: does the cd repo you have have _any_ headers in it?
[02:57] <wildman> K^Holtz, it never is... if you love tuxracer ;)
[02:57] <wildman> K^Holtz, 3D accel is working already
[02:58] <cwillu> Malin: if so, install that version of the kernel + those headers, and in grub, boot from that version of the kernel
[02:58] <K^Holtz> wildman: haha, well i would like to try it out.. let me just try and see what happens
[02:58] <johnccc> when I was apt-getting a program the installlation failed... No every time I'm trying to install a new program it  also keeps trying to install the failed program. Is there any way I can stop this?
[02:58] <wildman> K^Holtz, now, some games might work, others might... well you know ;)
[02:58] <phire> anyone?
[02:58] <Phoul> Hello, Is there any reason my performence would be better with xcompmgr enabled
[02:58] <Phoul> Because without it my windows leave these long trails and with its almost flawless
[02:58] <Malin> cwillu, but i cannot find these headers on packages.ubuntu.com
[02:58] <wildman> phire, there's a resolution change applet somewhere in System->Admin
[02:58] <Malin> there are only 2.6.15-23 packages
[02:59] <cwillu> Malin: does the dvd you have have them on it?
[02:59] <wildman> Redman271, ping
[02:59] <Flannel> Malin: that's because ubuntu doesn't have -21 in it.
[02:59] <K^Holtz> :( my resolution is screwed.. brb, restarting X
[02:59] <Malin> cwillu, checking...
[02:59] <fowlduck> where can I download the official ubuntu font?
[02:59] <cwillu> Malin: basically, if the dvd has _any_ kernel headers on it, then install those headers and the kernel from the cd to match it, then boot up using that kernel (should give you the option when you boot up and hit escape
[03:00] <Burrito> ok, I have some reading to do to try to get this to work...I might be back in a bit. thx for all the help peeps, lates fireside
[03:00] <sharms> if I install freevo, how do I have it launched instead of gnome on boot?
[03:00] <wildman> Burrito-Reading, the best way not to be Burrito anymore ;) (no pun intended)
[03:00] <wildman> Redman271, ping
[03:00] <firebird619> What command do I have to enter to have a different video card autodetected and configured. I want to put my Ubuntu HDD in a different computer which has a different video card, but when I tried that it said X couldn't start, etc and it took me to the command line.
[03:00] <Redman271> yes ?
[03:00] <cwillu> sharms: instead of the gnome desktop, or instead of gdm?
[03:01] <wildman> Redman271, I've PMed you... can't you see me?
[03:01] <Redman271> yes  ive  written you a  paragraph lol
[03:01] <sharms> cwillu: instead of gdm and gnome
[03:01] <cwillu> firebird619: sudo dpkg-reconfig xserver-xorg
[03:01] <wildman> Redman271, is your nick registered?
[03:01] <Redman271> no
[03:01] <wildman> Redman271, then we cannot PM :-|
[03:01] <firebird619> cwillu: Ok, Thank You
[03:01] <Redman271> ahhh,  is this  default  nickserv ?
[03:02] <wildman> yes on irc.freenode.net
[03:02] <jrib> firebird619: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , small typo I think
[03:02] <Redman271> ok  1 sec  ill register  my  correct  nic
[03:02] <cwillu> yep
[03:02] <wildman> Redman271, ok, lemme know
[03:02] <cwillu> or merely laziness on my part
[03:02] <firebird619> jrib: Ok, Thanks
[03:03] <Malin> cwillu, i think i don't understand
[03:03] <cwillu> Malin: you know about sources.list?
[03:03] <Sasuke> anybody know a good codec that could play most video files?
[03:03] <Malin> yeah
[03:03] <Malin> the only problem is i cannot install usb-eagle to set up my internet connection
[03:03] <dg10050> hi
[03:03] <cwillu> Malin: okay, sources.list should have a cdrom entry in it, right?
[03:03] <Malin> i cannot install it because i don't have linux-headers for my kernel
[03:03] <phire> wildman: 1280x1024 is there, but 1152x764 is missing
[03:03] <Malin> yeah
[03:04] <wildman> phire, then it's not available
[03:04] <cwillu> okay, so if you open synaptic and search for linux headers, do any at all show up?
[03:04] <dg10050> Can anyone help me get sound in Enemy Territory working?
[03:04] <phire> wildman: can I make it avaible?
[03:05] <Malin> i'll have to switch to ubuntu to check that out
[03:05] <Malin> brb
[03:05] <wildman> phire, maybe if you define your card and monitor parameters properly... and list that mode in the modes listed for the given colour depth you are using
[03:05] <cwillu> k
[03:05] <cwillu> malin, still therE?
[03:05] <Malin> yup
[03:05] <cwillu> do you need to reboot to check?
[03:06] <Malin> yes
[03:06] <cwillu> I'll check my live cd then
[03:06] <cwillu> give me a sec to double check
[03:06] <Malin> cwillu, i'm afraid we don't have the same livecd
[03:06] <digitalhav0c> can i burn .nrg files in ubuntu?
[03:06] <cwillu> how do you mean?
[03:06] <digitalhav0c> with k3b or other prog?
[03:06] <digitalhav0c> nero image files
[03:06] <digitalhav0c> to a cd
[03:06] <digitalhav0c> in linux
[03:06] <dg10050> anyone?
[03:07] <dg10050> Can anyone help me get sound in Enemy Territory working?
[03:07] <Malin> i told you before
[03:07] <Malin> i bought a newspaper, Linux+ with some linux distros
[03:07] <Malin> there was ubuntu 6.06, but it showed it's some beta
[03:08] <cwillu> malin, shouldn't matter
[03:08] <Malin> splash screen when logging in tells me it's "Ubuntu Dapper Beta"
[03:08] <Malin> ok, check then
[03:08] <cwillu> the beta would have the same file structure, so if I have it, you should as well
[03:08] <cwillu> maybe not the same version, but the same packages at least
[03:08] <digitalhav0c> did anyone answer that for me?
[03:08] <digitalhav0c> .nrg files in linux?
[03:08] <cwillu> Malin: unless I'm completely misunderstanding you :)
[03:09] <Malin> cwillu, i think you're getting everything right :-)
[03:09] <Malin> if not, i can explain it one more time, just to be sure :-)
[03:10] <Sasuke> can someone tell me what categorie in the SYnaptic Package manager i can find video/audio codecs under?
[03:10] <basis> wonder if i can get ubuntu onto a libretto 100ct
[03:10] <cwillu> !restricted>sasuke
[03:11] <cwillu> Malin: yep, the live cd should have the headers on it
[03:11] <Malin> cwillu, all i want to do is install usb-eagle :-)
[03:11] <lopzided> digitalhav0c, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=224353
[03:12] <cwillu> so boot into ubuntu, pop the cd in, open synaptic, and install the kernel headers, making sure that the same kernel version is installed (and I can't imagine how it wouldn't be)
[03:12] <digitalhav0c> thank lopzided
[03:12] <Malin> ok, going for reboot now, will try to get it to wrok
[03:12] <cwillu> Malin: _might_ have to apt-get update
[03:12] <cwillu> or the equivilent
[03:12] <Malin> ok
[03:12] <Malin> tell me one more thing
[03:12] <cwillu> yep?
[03:12] <Malin> what's the difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[03:13] <cwillu> nothing really
[03:13] <cwillu> apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, adept, all the same basic thing
[03:13] <cwillu> all front ends for dpkg
[03:13] <Malin> ok
[03:13] <Malin> going for reboot now
[03:13] <ryantrip> hey i was looking at the site, and i couldnt find the system requiremtents for ubuntu. does any one know what they are (for pc)
[03:13] <cwillu> k, good luck
[03:13] <Malin> cu in a few minutes, i hope :-)
[03:13] <TheNinja> how can i get a folder shared so it doesnt need a username and password to access???
[03:14] <phaedrus44> doe ubuntu come with software to handle .nzb downloads?
[03:14] <cwillu> TheNinja: what are you trying to do?
[03:14] <cwillu> nvb?
[03:14] <cwillu> nzb?
[03:14] <TylerJ> Hello
[03:14] <phaedrus44> nzb ?
[03:14] <TheNinja> cwillu, trying to share a folder so it doenst need a password when accesed
[03:14] <cwillu> sorry, I meant, sharing between what computers, for what purpose, etc
[03:15] <g> I am having power throttling problems on an x60s...
[03:15] <phaedrus44> nzb  from news servers
[03:15] <cwillu> i.e., is this a windows share you're trying to access from dapper?
[03:15] <sango> I recently downloaded kubuntu and unbuntu, and I am wondering if anyone can point me to articles that compare gnome and kde
[03:15] <TylerJ> Where can i find the mplayer .deb package for ubuntu dapper?
[03:15] <cwillu> sango: which did you want to prefer?  changes which articicles you shoud read :)
[03:15] <ryantrip> what are the system requiremtns for ubuntu?
[03:16] <TheNinja> cwillu, any ideas?
[03:16] <cwillu> seriously though, just google for the two words,  and you should find tons of pages
[03:16] <coucho> good evening
[03:16] <phaedrus44> how do i find out my ubuntu version?..
[03:16] <sango> cwillu: any unbiased articles
[03:16] <cwillu> sango: basically no such thing, but you might start at wikipedia
[03:17] <cwillu> ryantrip: depends what you want to use it for;  I do fairly heavy usage on a 1gig with 256mb of ram
[03:17] <darkyoshi372> does anybody know where I can get the image that can be used for gnome panel's background to make it shiny?
[03:17] <CosmoDad> hi -- can anyone recommend a GUI-based stand-alone mp3 encoder (that is, a tool that doesn't require a music CD)?
[03:17] <dg10050> Can anyone help me get sound in games like Enemy Territory working?
[03:17] <CosmoDad> I wanna encode a wav-file into mp3
[03:17] <dg10050> I can't get it to work
[03:17] <TylerJ> I need to find mplayer .deb package for dapper...lol
[03:17] <phaedrus44> what about software to handle .rar? files
[03:17] <sango> cwillu: I already read the wikipedia stuff but most of it is about the development, but it did talk about how c libraries are handled
[03:17] <cwillu> ryantrip: xubuntu is the light weight version, you should be able to find the minimum requirements on ubuntu's homepage
[03:17] <Sakurx> CosmoDad Audacity will do that
[03:18] <dg10050> I've tried everything here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnemyTerritory
[03:18] <ryantrip> cwillu: i have an old machine. im planing on using it for a home network server. i think its under the system require ments, because its only 433 mhz and only about 128 mb of ram
[03:18] <Sakurx> !xubuntu
[03:18] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[03:18] <phaedrus44> ryantrip:  i have the same system as you..ubuntu runs ok
[03:18] <cwillu> ryantrip: that should run xubuntu fine, at least
[03:18] <ryantrip> ok cool
[03:18] <ryantrip> thanks for the help
[03:18] <cwillu> ryantrip: I've got a 350mhz running ubuntu as a server
[03:18] <phaedrus44> i use fluxbox though..not the bloated gnome
[03:19] <CosmoDad> Sakurx: Audacity? uhmm, quite a big app for some mp3 encoding, but I'll remember that...
[03:19] <coucho> can someone help me fix my remote desktop?
[03:19] <phaedrus44> which is cool..because you can use gnome apps in flux
[03:19] <TylerJ> Is it possible to go into remote assistance (windows) to linux
[03:19] <ryantrip> cwillu: good, i glad i can use ubuntu because it seem to be an easy to use os. im running windows 98 and its realy kinda sucks
[03:19] <cwillu> TylerJ: linux can remote desktop into windows, and windows can vnc into linux
[03:20] <bur[n] er> windows can also use FreeNX to get into linux
[03:20] <coucho> cwillu, i can't vnc into linux
[03:20] <bur[n] er> and vice versa
[03:20] <bur[n] er> porque coucho?
[03:20] <cwillu> bur[n] er: not in terms of remote support really though
[03:20] <bur[n] er> er.. why
[03:20] <coucho> wish i knew
[03:20] <phaedrus44> ryantrip:  you really have to choose your windows manager..the ubuntu os is great...but i wouldnt run gnome on that system..
[03:21] <coucho> remote desktop is enabled
[03:21] <SeraVitae> hey, my graphics card and resolution are in X11 by default, but in ubuntu resolution settings it only lists 1024x768 which is smaller than what the resolution is in X11, and the driver it uses is i810 (intel) but the card is better then that, is that the reason why its not supporting the higher resolution
[03:21] <cwillu> coucho: what are you trying to do?
[03:21] <coucho> vnc onto my linux box
[03:21] <coucho> with vncviewer
[03:21] <sango> does gnome/kde benchmark differently?
[03:22] <cwillu> coucho: does it work loopback?  i.e., can you vncviewer from the linux box to the same box?
[03:22] <HellDragon> :)
[03:22] <coucho> cwillu: vnc viewer says "server closed connection unexpectedly"
[03:22] <coucho> i'll try
[03:23] <geos2> can anyone point to a link on how ubuntu controls centrino/duo frequency stepping?
[03:24] <pygentoo> hi all...I've installed ubuntu 6.06 lts and now trying to install hsfmodem driver but when I do make it sais that there is no command like this how can I fix it ?
[03:24] <digitalhav0c> could anyone point me in right direction im trying to figure out a faster way for my friend to send me a file other than aim he is using Windows XP i am using ubuntu
[03:25] <coucho> cwillu: does nothing really
[03:25] <digitalhav0c> pretty big file 600megs
[03:25] <cwillu> coucho, does nothing in what sense?
[03:25] <coucho> ReadFromRFBServer: rdr::EndOfStream
[03:26] <alink1000> I'm having some installation problems...
[03:26] <coucho> cwillu: i type "localhost" or "127.0.0.1", but i get nothing
[03:26] <alink1000> ...with alot of things
[03:26] <cwillu> coucho, one sec
[03:26] <coucho> sure
[03:26] <alink1000> *a lot
[03:26] <alink1000> I think it's ubuntu
[03:26] <alink1000> see, I tried to install amsn, and got some sort of error.
[03:27] <coucho> what kind of error?
[03:27] <alink1000> then I tried to install limewire, and got an error with the archiver
[03:27] <digitalhav0c> dont know if anyone answered my question
[03:27] <alink1000> it says not known archive type...
[03:27] <alink1000> :S
[03:27] <digitalhav0c> i hit ctl+backspace
[03:27] <condar> does anyone know where i can find the plugins to play dvd with totem
[03:27] <alink1000> so...um.... :S
[03:27] <coucho> what kind of archive is it?
[03:27] <alink1000> hold up
[03:27] <geos2> digitalhavoc: it's lame but you could try skype...
[03:27] <cwillu> coucho: which vnc server did you install?
[03:27] <Sasuke> I have turned on all repositories...but cant find the gstream plugins
[03:28] <coucho> cwillu: i think vnc4server
[03:28] <cwillu> coucho: running gnome/normal ubuntu?
[03:28] <coucho> cwillu: yup
[03:28] <digitalhav0c> would it be faster than aim
[03:28] <coucho> cwillu: still 5.10 though
[03:28] <alink1000> it's .rpm
[03:28] <alink1000> it says it's not supported
[03:28] <cwillu> coucho: look at vino
[03:28] <alink1000> is that the wrong one? :S
[03:28] <SeraVitae> could someone maybe give me a hand working out where i might grab the right drivers for my video card?
[03:29] <geos2> digitalhavoc: last time i tried it was pretty fast, 600M is alot though
[03:29] <coucho> alink1000: debian based distros use .deb's, not .rpm's
[03:29] <coucho> cwillu: vino?
[03:29] <SeraVitae> or even if i can? it seems intel only has drivers for Suse linux
[03:29] <lwizardl> whats the most reliable linux torrent app?
[03:29] <alink1000> so I would go with the other link on the limewire site....
[03:29] <alink1000> hm...
[03:29] <cwillu> coucho: by which I mean, install that and uninstall the other package
[03:29] <digitalhav0c> were getting about 24kbs
[03:29] <alink1000> limewire. :)
[03:29] <coucho> cwillu: k, hold on
[03:29] <ryantrip> so once i install ubuntu, is it prity easy to set up a server (ftp and such)?
[03:29] <digitalhav0c> i get faster time downloading from india
[03:29] <digitalhav0c> lol
[03:29] <condar> does anyone know where i can find the plugins to play dvd with totem pm me
[03:29] <ketetha_> great. finally i find amaroK which is great but its not playing the music i want!
[03:29] <ketetha_> it plays like a milisecond then goes to the next song
[03:29] <ubuntupy> can anyone tell me what I should install to get make command working ?
[03:29] <digitalhav0c> condar, search for automaix
[03:29] <ketetha_> i don tunderstnad this
[03:30] <cwillu> coucho: that's what the remote desktop access in system|prefs should be controlling
[03:30] <digitalhav0c> automatix
[03:30] <digitalhav0c> sorry
[03:30] <cwillu> no!
[03:30] <cwillu> no automatix
[03:30] <nalioth> !automatix
[03:30] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[03:30] <ketetha_> why is amaroK only playing miliseconds of the song! i dont understand it. is it becuase its mp3. becuase its not doing it to ogg fiels
[03:30] <coucho> cwillu: remote desktop uses vino?
[03:30] <darkyoshi372> Is there a way to make OpenOffice, well, not ugly?
[03:30] <geos2> my x60s cpu freqency is wildly flucuating (from Gkrellm) resulting in a very choppy system.  Help!
[03:30] <coucho> cwillu: already newest version
[03:30] <cwillu> I'd personally use easyubuntu instead of automatix, as it's a bit less likely to break your system, (automatix force installed packages last I knew)
[03:31] <alink1000> dammit I can't find a .deb in the "Other" .zip package...hm...
[03:31] <sam__> I am trying to print to a network printer hooked to an xp box and I get this error "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"
[03:31] <cwillu> coucho: okay, next, how is remote-desktop configured?
[03:31] <SeraVitae> hey, when i went to install dapper it would freeze on install and randomly and stuff, but badger works fine, should i try to update it to dapper from badger? or will i stuff things up again
[03:31] <ketetha_> does amaroK not play mp3. because it doesnt work!
[03:31] <coucho> cwillu: what exactly do you mean?
[03:31] <dbarnett> I just upgraded to 6.0.6 and I have to recompile a bunch of drivers, but I can't find source for 2.6.12.10 (just up to *.6) anyone have a link where I can find the headers?
[03:32] <digitalhav0c> does anyone know how to turn of the key binding for ctl-backspace getting tired to restarting wm
[03:32] <cwillu> coucho: allow other users to view your desktop is enabled, right?
[03:32] <digitalhav0c> lol
[03:32] <digitalhav0c> by accident
[03:32] <coucho> cwillu: yes, and control too, and it demands a passwd
[03:32] <debian_> has anyone updated today and had most characters on screen started to be displayed as blocks like []  []  []  []  []  [] ?
[03:32] <ketetha_> does amaroK not play mp3. can someone help me
[03:32] <digitalhav0c> debian i did im working fine
[03:32] <malin> cwillu: success :-)
[03:32] <cwillu> coucho: does ps -A|grep vino show vino-server running?
[03:33] <cwillu> malin: yay!!!  :)
[03:33] <malin> yeah
[03:33] <coucho> cwillu: yup it does
[03:33] <malin> synaptic told me he need to install over 300 MB of updates :/
[03:33] <cwillu> malin: network working yet then?
[03:33] <Manderson> I've got a firefox problem.. I keep getting windows that pop up notifying me that the website I am going to has a certificate that was "certified by an unknown authority"...Is there a way to stop these messages from coming up? I don't remember firefox doing this in the past.
[03:33] <ketetha_> EXCUSE ME. how do you delete a song from yoru collection on amaroK
[03:33] <cwillu> malin: that's typical;  updates are actually redownloading the compressed packages, it doesn't do diffs yet
[03:34] <malin> cwillu: yeah, writing now in xchat under ubuntu
[03:34] <Kazukisan> I did a server install from the breezy ubuntu disc, then i did a dist upgrade to dapper and then did a apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and i edited xorg.conf to use vesa driver and now when i do a start x it tries to start it and my screen goes blank and then my monitor goes into resting state like its not reciving a signal and my computer i think freezes ????
[03:34] <cwillu> yippee
[03:34] <cwillu> Kazukisan: ctrl+alt+f1 do anything?
[03:34] <Kazukisan> noep
[03:34] <Kazukisan> nope
[03:34] <malin> i have transfer limits on my adsl connection :/
[03:34] <LjL> ketetha_: just delete it from the collection's folder
[03:35] <cwillu> Kazukisan: boot into safe mode and then try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and accept all the autodetected settings?
[03:35] <coucho> cwillu: so vino-server is running, any idea what next?
[03:35] <Kazukisan> i ll try i guess
[03:35] <Tha1> hey, when i try to activate any of the network interfaces to enter internet, it runs fine, but at any time the whole system crashes
[03:35] <ketetha_> ljl, where is the collections folder
[03:35] <cwillu> coucho: which version of ubuntu did you say you were running?
[03:35] <coucho> 5.10
[03:35] <coucho> cwillu: aka breezy
[03:35] <coucho> :P
[03:35] <cwillu> did anything change on port mapper -> dapper?
[03:36] <digitalhav0c> coucho, 6.06lts is so much better
[03:36] <digitalhav0c> :)
[03:36] <LjL> ketetha_: where you set it up to be. where you music actually is. where Settings / Configure amaroK / Collection says it is.
[03:36] <coucho> digitalhav0c: i haven't had much luck with dapper on my laptop
[03:36] <digitalhav0c> im in love with linux again from the days of first tryin slack , rh
[03:36] <cwillu> coucho: one sec

[03:37] <coucho> digitalhav0c: i'm trying to prevent having to reinstall everything and losing all my data cause the update messed it all up
[03:37] <twobitspr1te> I've had this problem before, but I can't remember how I fixed it... http://paste.lisp.org/display/22430

[03:38] <cwillu> coucho: does sudo netstat -p -l|grep vino show anything?
[03:38] <twobitspr1te> when I try to install mldonkey-server it has some problem in the install script and fails, and continues to spam me about the error every time I run apt-get
[03:38] <Tha1> anyone?

[03:38] <coucho> digitalhav0c: download what?
[03:38] <digitalhav0c> i download the new 6.06lts disk
[03:38] <ketetha_> ljl, yes im changing the song to ogg in the same file i moved the mp3 one to trash now tat it finished but its still on my collections list
[03:38] <digitalhav0c> and 6.06 works great
[03:38] <opiate2006> what are some commands that give good details about system hardware?
[03:38] <digitalhav0c> right now im playing with xgl
[03:38] <Hexidigital> what is the correct command to reconfigure X?
[03:38] <cwillu> coucho: I'm looking for a line that starts with tcp, and has something like *:5900 in it
[03:39] <digitalhav0c> and its awsome
[03:39] <Kazukisan> cwillu, didnt work
[03:39] <coucho> cwillu: it's there
[03:39] <ketetha_> LjL, nevermidn. i had to delete it from trash too
[03:39] <LjL> ketetha_: ah well, you need to either wait a little, or do Tools / Rescan collection
[03:39] <GbUnik> i'm sorry this is very basic q but anyone here use dapper drake (6.06) lts for routing?
[03:39] <coucho> cwillu: only it says 5901
[03:39] <ketetha_> LjL, ahh ok i'll try taht next time
[03:39] <cwillu> heh
[03:39] <GbUnik> oops i mean traffic management
[03:39] <cwillu> coucho: one more sec, but that's the problem
[03:39] <coucho> cwillu: tcp        0      0 *:5901
[03:39] <coucho> sure
[03:39] <coucho> i'll wait
[03:40] <cwillu> coucho: does vncviewer localhost:0:5901 work?
[03:40] <coucho> lemme try
[03:40] <twobitspr1te> someone once showed me where the install script is stored which is bein executed each time, but I can't remember where it is
[03:40] <Hexidigital> cwillu:: are you sure the port number is needed?
[03:40] <ketetha_> LjL, i have a question. is there a way to just get all my songs automatically on the playlist
[03:40] <cwillu> Hexidigital: if it's not on the standard port it sure is :)
[03:40] <coucho> cwillu: no it doesn't
[03:41] <Hexidigital> cwillu:: :) sorry, didn't notice that
[03:41] <coucho> cwillu: again end of stream
[03:41] <SeraVitae> hey guys, i downloaded dapper, it didnt work, badger works, i just went to update badger to dapper, and it asks me to download 579mb.. is there any way i can use the dapper cd to update badger with?
[03:41] <Hexidigital> coucho:: what about :5901:0 ?
[03:41] <ketetha_> LjL, ok ignore that other question. i can just select all of them. but i do have another one
[03:41] <SelfHarm> i guess i dont have filters to play mp3s...
[03:41] <cwillu> Hexidigital: I'm pretty sure that'd be x session #5901 on port 0
[03:41] <SelfHarm> how can i get em?
[03:42] <coucho> Hexidigital: that doesn't even return "end of stream"
[03:42] <Hexidigital> hmm
[03:42] <cwillu> coucho: I think you've got more than one vnc server running
[03:42] <ketetha_> LjL, is ther a pkg i can install to get mp3 files to work on amaroK
[03:42] <ketetha_> is ther a pkg i can install to get mp3 files to work on amaroK
[03:42] <pseydtonne> amarok?
[03:42] <coucho> wait a second!!!
[03:42] <cwillu> coucho: in the remote desktop control panel, what command line does it suggest you use to connect?
[03:42] <coucho> it asked for a pasword
[03:42] <LjL> ketetha_: of course
[03:42] <SelfHarm> im using amarok, cant get mp3s to play either
[03:43] <LjL> !tell ketetha_ about mp3
[03:43] <cwillu> ooo, okay
[03:43] <coucho> and now my desktop is full of vnc viewers

[03:43] <ketetha_> LjL, which link do i use?
[03:43] <LjL> ketetha_: the first
[03:43] <odla> any suggestions for a bittorrent client that lets you select on certain parts of the torrent file excluding azureus?
[03:43] <cwillu> coucho: okay, remove the vnc servers you installed, and then disable and reenable the remote connections
[03:43] <cwillu> the netstat line should then show it listening on 5900, and everything should work fine
[03:43] <coucho> cwillu: hold on
[03:43] <ketetha_> LJL, thankss be righ tback
[03:43] <coucho> not so fast XD
[03:44] <Hexidigital> what is the correct command to reconfigure X?
[03:44] <cwillu> Hexidigital: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:44] <Kazukisan> I did a server install from the breezy ubuntu disc, then i did a dist upgrade to dapper and then did a apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and i edited xorg.conf to use vesa driver and now when i do a start x it tries to start it and my screen goes blank and then my monitor goes into resting state like its not reciving a signal and my computer i think freezes ????
[03:44] <Hexidigital> cwillu:: thx
[03:44] <coucho> cwillu: i don't know what vnc servers i installed
[03:45] <SeraVitae> anyone have an idea how to add an ubuntu cd as a repository so i dont have to download 500+mb of packages?
[03:45] <cwillu> coucho: you installed something like vnc4server or something?
[03:45] <Sasuke> can anybody recommend me to a good encoding software?
[03:45] <coucho> cwillu: already removed vncserver, vnc4server and x11vnc
[03:45] <pseydtonne> Sasuke: lame!
[03:45] <pseydtonne> Seriously, that's the nameof the encoder.
[03:45] <narfmaster> Sasuke, mencoder
[03:45] <cwillu> coucho: okay, disable and renable it then, and it should get back to 5900
[03:46] <twobitspr1te> has anyone successfully installed mldonkey-server before?
[03:46] <cwillu> coucho: _might_ need to reboot, but that's only because I don't know exactly which service needs to be reset
[03:46] <sam__> can anyone help with network printing
[03:46] <coucho> cwillu: k i'll try
[03:46] <Sasuke> narfmaster: how do i get mencoder?
[03:46] <cwillu> Kazukisan: what video card are you running?

[03:47] <cwillu> SKunsai379: having an issue or looking for reviews?

[03:47] <opiate2006> how do i get hardware information from the command line?
[03:47] <SKunsai379> cwillu: Bit of an issue.
[03:47] <Sasuke> narfmaster: i can't seem to get multiverse to work only universe
[03:48] <coucho> cwillu: still 5901
[03:48] <coucho> cwillu: reboot?
[03:48] <cwillu> coucho: :/
[03:48] <Gentoon> Ubuntu left grub broken when I installed over it can anyone help me fix
[03:48] <malin> cwillu: what time is it in canada? :-)

[03:49] <ketetha_> narfmaster, ahh okk thanks though
[03:49] <SKunsai379> Any ideas?
[03:49] <sdferfx> Hi. : ) how do I change the agp thing from agpgart to agp-amd64? i read these are compiled into the kernel
[03:49] <cwillu> coucho: could try rebooting;  there may be a config file somewhere that needs tweaking;  not a huge deal, just a little thing that's nonstandard otherwise (you'd have to always specify the port if it's not 5900)
[03:49] <cwillu> 8ish
[03:49] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: I need to reinstall grub from ubuntu live disk
[03:49] <Kazukisan> cwillu, ati x800
[03:49] <coucho> cwillu: ok i'll reboot
[03:49] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: I havent been able to cause its lvm
[03:49] <ketetha_> anyone now what the MAD MPEG or MP3 plugin for amaroK is
[03:50] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: what actually happened to your Grub install?
[03:50] <narfmaster> Sasuke, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[03:50] <condar> I keep getting this error msg when trying to rum totem
[03:50] <sdferfx> guys liek srsly
[03:50] <condar> Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it.
[03:50] <ketetha_> anyone know the MP3 plugin for amaroK
[03:50] <cwillu> ketetha_: have you tried installing them yet?
[03:50] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: I installed a different distro over it and now I cant boot my windows or linux, give error 13 or 15
[03:50] <SKunsai379> ketetha_: Have you tried gstreamer?
[03:50] <t0dd> hey, whenever I try and activate my wireless connection, I get the following error: "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory" .. Does anyone know of a resolution?
[03:51] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - hey about repository stuff, how can i add a cd as a repository?
[03:51] <cwillu> t0dd: make sure you sudo
[03:51] <ketetha_> cwillu, what do you mean
[03:51] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, i think you use apt-cdrom for that
[03:51] <cwillu> have you tried installing the packages you were talking about yet?
[03:51] <crazym> Why does the installer dont give me the choice to use LVM when partitioning for a Ubuntu Desktop install?
[03:51] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: there an easy way to install grub with live cd?
[03:51] <ketetha_> SKunsai379, noo. i dont really feel like changing i just got used to amaroK and like it alot. is gstreamer worth changing for? can you give me a screenshot of it
[03:51] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - okay ill try - im trying to update badger to dapper with the dapper cd
[03:52] <SKunsai379> Not from this PC. Not even mine.
[03:52] <SKunsai379> Mine's at home doing a compile job.
[03:52] <Gentoon> ketetha_: gtstreamer is a plugin
[03:52] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: if you mount the boot directory and look in Grub, do you see any of your old files? I know on my box, Ubuntu simply wrote new files in addendum to the existing ones.
[03:52] <t0dd> cwillu I did
[03:52] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, let me know if it works - i always do a clean install :)
[03:52] <sdferfx> Hi. : ) how do I change the agp thing from agpgart to agp-amd64? i read these are compiled into the kernel
[03:52] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: cant mount it
[03:52] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - yeah i did a clean install but dapper froze twice.
[03:52] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: dunno why
[03:53] <ketetha_> gentoon, is it now? welll dont i sound dumb. i thought it was a player as well. haha well i already have gstreamer0.8-mad installed.
[03:53] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: we tried alot of stuff last night and concluded i needed to reinstall grub
[03:53] <pseydtonne> can't mount it? What command are you giving?
[03:53] <SKunsai379> So who else here worked with the Mac/PPC Ubuntu?
[03:53] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: mount dev dir??
[03:54] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: when you run 'df -m' do you see the partition with /boot on the list?
[03:54] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: do you just know how to reinstall it?
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> wow XGL is crazy
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> hasn't crashed on me all day
[03:54] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: can we talk in pm to I can just use /EXEC -o
[03:54] <Gentoon> so 88
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> hum i down loading a kernal update and some other files its good
[03:54] <ablyss> you sure it's not compiz crashing instead digitalhav0c?
[03:54] <Gentoon> so **
[03:54] <montag_451> Is there something equivilant to an UbuntuATIHelp channel on FreeNode?
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> ablyss, neither have crashed since the update
[03:55] <ketetha_> argh im confused.
[03:55] <ketetha_> nevermind. i'll just keep converting mp3 to ogg.
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> hum maybe their gettting somewere now
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> let me try to play a dvd
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> thats the test
[03:55] <coucho> cwillu: still 5901 :/
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> always crashes when i try to do that
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> lol
[03:55] <ketetha_> are there any other wayts to convert mp3 to ogg
[03:56] <chrisvecchitto> ubuntu is nice ... osx86 project is better i think ;)
[03:56] <chrisvecchitto> DBO hear that!
[03:56] <LjL> ketetha_: uh, did you follow the instructions? you just need to install libxine-extracodecs to play mp3 in amarok
[03:56] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: ?
[03:56] <cwillu> coucho: well, it works at least;  I'd google around for how to set which port vino listens on
[03:56] <ablyss> i never had xgl crash, just compiz.. and when it does, its usually nothing major just the eyecandy stops
[03:56] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: I don't think I can msg on this server. I believe it requires registration.
[03:56] <chrisvecchitto> im on a mac on a dell :)
[03:56] <coucho> cwillu: ok i'll try
[03:56] <DBO> chrisvecchitto, what?  do I know you?
[03:56] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - danmit it added the cd fine, and i did a apt-get dist-upgrade and it read off the cd, but when i go to update it, now its downloading the cd off the net!!! ><'
[03:56] <coucho> cwillu: thanks a lot!!
[03:56] <SeraVitae> it spun the cd up then ignored it
[03:56] <sam__> can anyone please help with network printing
[03:56] <t0dd> hey, whenever I try and activate my wireless connection, I get the following error: "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory" .. Does anyone know of a resolution?
[03:56] <ketetha_> LjL, it says that in there? i red there. and even highlighted where it says amaroK but didnt find it
[03:56] <__chris__> :P
[03:56] <DBO> oh I do know you
[03:56] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: you can unless they changed it
[03:56] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, that's because the CD has old packages
[03:56] <cwillu> coucho: np
[03:57] <__chris__> ha samba ;)
[03:57] <__chris__> apache ;) too
[03:57] <__chris__> :P
[03:57] <ablyss> sam__: my advice is dont use networking printing.. it sucks :)
[03:57] <LjL> chrisvecchitto: what would the osx86 project have to do with ubuntu? besides sounding sort of offtopic...
[03:57] <__chris__> i make your midnight coffee! come on now
[03:57] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, is that the "desktop" install CD?
[03:57] <__chris__> how you been DBO ? :)
[03:57] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - true, hopefully the bulk of the packages should be on the cd though right?
[03:57] <SeraVitae> yes it is the desktop cd
[03:57] <DBO> sleepy, Im almost off to bed __chris__
[03:57] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: can you just tell me if there is a command to install grub autimatically with ubuntu live dapper
[03:57] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, the "desktop" CD doesn't store packages like that
[03:57] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: it's not working. I can read you but you can't read me.
[03:57] <__chris__> DBO know bittorent? and torrent files?
[03:57] <sam__> I think I found that out the hard way
[03:57] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - ah okay, that sucks then.
[03:58] <LjL> ketetha_, there's an index on the top-right of the page. click where it says "mp3", and read the paragraph about Kubuntu Dapper Drake
[03:58] <__chris__> download osx86 at piratebay ;)
[03:58] <pseydtonne> As fora single command, there is but I can't recall it.
[03:58] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, you really have to do the installer to get the new packages on that disc
[03:58] <SeraVitae> oh well it is only 3 hours to wait..
[03:58] <DBO> __chris__, we dont support pirating here
[03:58] <sam__> still would like to try and get it to work
[03:58] <ketetha_> LjL, now i see it. alternative media players. well thank youu =] 
[03:58] <crazym> how can I install using LVM with the Desktop CD??
[03:58] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - yeah i just hope i dont wait 3 hours, to have dapper fail again.
[03:58] <__chris__> :| ok....  :) sorry
[03:58] <Gentoon> Does ANYONE know the command???
[03:58] <SeraVitae> i think i might try a clean install again.
[03:58] <__chris__> its legal by the way :)
[03:58] <ketetha_> LjL, you know in the synaptic manager. why do some of thet hings have stars next to them
[03:58] <LjL> ketetha_: no it's not under alternative media players
[03:58] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - can i do a dapper install straight off the cd, without going to live desktop?
[03:58] <yipe> here's a weird hypothetical I'm-not-really-gonna-even-try-but-I'm-curious kinda question:
[03:58] <DBO> __chris__, osx86 is not a legal project
[03:59] <SKunsai379> Does anyone know anything about PPC Ubuntu on a Mac?
[03:59] <LjL> ketetha_: anyway just "sudo aptitude install libxine-extracodecs", that should work if you have the repos enabled
[03:59] <`Evil`> <-- n00b. Anyone know how to change drives in terminal using command?
[03:59] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, no you need the "alternate" or the DVD for that
[03:59] <LjL> ketetha_: i don't have synaptic
[03:59] <__chris__> :P ok DBO
[03:59] <__chris__> its a great experince tho :)
[03:59] <__chris__> osx86 project :P
[03:59] <Gentoon> pseydtonne: Cause we tried chroot last night and couldnt manually reinstall it I think there is a way to do this easily
[03:59] <ablyss> sam__: i never tried it on linux, though if its hard on windows.. i can imagine it being slighty hard on linux.. though i'm probably wrong
[03:59] <ketetha_> LjL, ok ya its installed now. what do you have?
[03:59] <yipe> is it possible to run Ubuntu off the FreeBSD kernel? Basically just swap in the FreeBSD kernel in place of the linux one, make the appropriate grub entry, and reboot?
[03:59] <LjL> ketetha_: Adept, since i'm a Kubuntu user. but i just use aptitude and apt-cache
[03:59] <__chris__> any developers here?
[03:59] <sam__> works fine on windows
[03:59] <yipe> I'd call it freebuntu
[04:00] <kaot> yipe: I think not.  at all.
[04:00] <pseydtonne> Gentoon: go to #linuxputz
[04:00] <ketetha_> LjL, ohh i see. cool
[04:00] <pseydtonne> It'll be easier to talk
[04:00] <LjL> !tell __chris__ about offtopic
[04:00] <yipe> hehe, I figured as much
[04:00] <sam__> dual boot xp and dapper xp side prints fine
[04:00] <ketetha_> freebuntu?
[04:00] <sdferfx> Hi. : ) how do I change the agp thing from agpgart to agp-amd64? i read these are compiled into the kernel
[04:00] <ablyss> sam__: try google, usually find something there :)
[04:00] <sam__> been there
[04:00] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - is there a way when installing dapper i can at least watch whats going on so when it freezes, i might have an idea why?
[04:00] <ablyss> sam__: okay
[04:01] <coucho> cwillu: running a different vnc server wouldn't be an option?
[04:01] <sam__> get the error "/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"
[04:01] <wastrel> zomg this thing is password protected
[04:01] <wastrel> and oowriter respects that!  i can't make changes?   how do i get around this?
[04:01] <cwillu> coucho: it would, and there's neat and wonderful things you can do by doing that, but as far as just getting your gnome session shared, I'd stick with the ubuntu recommended way
[04:02] <sam__> the log file says cupsdAuthorize: No authentication data provided.
[04:02] <yipe> hi wastrel!
[04:02] <sharms> sam__: so provide authentication data
[04:02] <sam__> not sure how
[04:02] <Rick_kinda_newbi> how come when I launch nm_applet I get a flash, then NADA?
[04:02] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - dapper desktop cd froze at 'Ok, booting the kernel'
[04:02] <wastrel> hi yipe!  this msword doc i need to edit is password locked and oowriter is respecting that for some insane reason
[04:02] <coucho> cwillu: ok, it's just that i can't find anything on my box that looks like vino settings
[04:02] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, try running "top" in a terminal next to the install wizard
[04:03] <sam__> using cups and samba
[04:03] <yipe> well that's no good, maybe if you shoot it?
[04:03] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - i didnt even get that far
[04:03] <wastrel> kinda can't
[04:03] <SeraVitae> it was loading the ubuntu thing, got to 'starting x' and froze
[04:03] <sam__> can see other computers on the network
[04:03] <SeraVitae> i didnt even get a terminal
[04:03] <SKunsai379> wastrel: Where'd you get the file from?
[04:03] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, no video?
[04:03] <sharms> sam__: we have wonderful documentation why are you not reading it
[04:04] <sharms> !tell sam about printing
[04:04] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - dapper has frozen at the ubuntu menu, gotten to desktop and frozen, frozen when i chose a language in install, frozen during install...
[04:04] <SeraVitae> its random.
[04:04] <ketetha_> what are cups
[04:04] <yipe> okay, here's an actual tech help question: How do I remove things I don't need from my boot-sequence? I don't use PCMCIA for one thing, nor RAID
[04:04] <sharms> sam__: specifically: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPPrinter
[04:04] <ketetha_> nevermind
[04:04] <AJ004> holy crap
[04:04] <coucho> cwillu: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-8742.html :'(
[04:04] <sam__> ok ill check it out
[04:04] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, sorry i have no experience dealing with random crashes
[04:04] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  it's a job application for the company i'm interviewing with tomorrow.  i need to edit it because oowriter isn't getting the formatting right and it's printing out on waaaay too many pages.
[04:04] <AJ004> 36 updates for ubuntu
[04:04] <sharms> ketetha_: it manages printing
[04:04] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - i am getting lots of buffer i/o errors now
[04:04] <AJ004> are those 36 updates new or did i just forget to update?
[04:05] <sharms> SeraVitae: sounds like bad hardware
[04:05] <SKunsai379> wastrel: Have you tried another text editor like AbiWord?
[04:05] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, did you verify the CD after you burned it (i assume you burned it)
[04:05] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  abiword is even worse :] 
[04:05] <AJ004> damn, new linux kernel
[04:05] <ketetha_> sharms, i see. is it like a program?
[04:05] <SeraVitae> i did burn it, no i didnt verify
[04:05] <SeraVitae> maybe i should
[04:05] <AJ004> gotta reboot :(
[04:05] <ketetha_> i gotta og guys
[04:05] <SKunsai379> wastrel: Ugh, why'd I ask?
[04:05] <ketetha_> i'll be on later or tomorrow
[04:05] <ketetha_> byeeee
[04:05] <sharms> ketetha_: it is what apache is to webpages, cups is to printing
[04:05] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  hmm that gave me an idea tho
[04:05] <cwillu> coucho: that's funny
[04:05] <SeraVitae> SQUASHFS error: sb_bread failed reading block xcb4f
[04:05] <SKunsai379> wastrel: How about in...*gasp*...Window$?
[04:05] <cwillu> in the haha sense
[04:06] <wastrel> i don't have windows :] 
[04:06] <ketetha_> sharms, that analogy doesnt help me. apache?
[04:06] <SeraVitae> the cd didnt sound happy
[04:06] <coucho> cwillu: i think it sucks :P
[04:06] <cwillu> it's doing something with the ports (mine runs on 5900)
[04:06] <ketetha_> sharms, haha sorry
[04:06] <SeraVitae> maybe i will burn the cd again slower
[04:06] <SKunsai379> wastrel: What's your idea?
[04:06] <ketetha_> sharms, its ok thought i'll find out tomorrow good nighttt
[04:06] <cwillu> coucho: what shows up if you do:  sudo netstat -p -l|grep ":59" ?
[04:06] <sharms> ketetha_: you sent stuff to print to cups, cups sends the stuff to the printer in a way the printer understands
[04:06] <AJ004> new ATI drivers, new kernel
[04:06] <AJ004> might as well download em
[04:06] <ketetha_> sharms, ohh ok.
[04:06] <ketetha_> goodnight
[04:06] <wlady> hello
[04:06] <ketetha_> thankss =] 
[04:06] <sharms> np
[04:07] <dadgumit> I am not gettin g3d acceleration,  with dapper, but have the fglrx installed
[04:07] <coucho> cwillu: it says that inetd is listening on port 5900?!
[04:07] <dadgumit> help?
[04:07] <AJ004> dadgumit:  I dunno.......... i installed the ati drivers awhile back, now there are updates
[04:07] <kdegel> got a question about sound
[04:07] <human39_laptop> new ubuntu user here.  I am wondering if there is a way I can change the init level to text mode only.  Previous distro's this was init 3, instead of 5.  It seems unbuntu has defaulted to 2
[04:07] <kdegel> like where do i look to get each application independent from each other?
[04:07] <cwillu> coucho: heh
[04:08] <narfmaster> human39_laptop, really it's 2 now?
[04:08] <cwillu> coucho: you know what that implies?
[04:08] <kdegel> like for xine, xmms, mplayer etc..
[04:08] <dadgumit> aj004, can i just try to update from the package manager?
[04:08] <AJ004> lemme guess, google is working overtime on ubuntu :)
[04:08] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  didn't work - abiword can edit the file but the formatting is so broken i wouldn't be able to fix it.  and saving from abiword just saves the broken formatting
[04:08] <AJ004> hah
[04:08] <coucho> cwillu: i have no friggin clue
[04:08] <cwillu> okay, crash course time :)
[04:08] <human39_laptop> narfmaster, yes.  on my /etc/inittab
[04:08] <kdegel> is it sound drivers or something else?
[04:08] <sdferfx> hey guys is edgy the new testing distribution, and how are Ubuntu's branches different than Debian's? Does stable get more than security backports?
[04:08] <AJ004> dadgumit:  all i know is i loaded up ubuntu today and found 36 updates
[04:08] <coucho> heheh
[04:08] <cwillu> inetd is kinda a master daemon
[04:08] <AJ004> so im installing them now
[04:08] <SKunsai379> wastrel: But did AbiWord break the password off?
[04:08] <SurfnKid> has anyone found a way to change a class device from eth1 to wlan0? successfully
[04:08] <cwillu> it listens on ports, and then spawns processes as connections are accepted
[04:09] <cwillu> that way, services don't need to be running until somebody actually wants to user the service
[04:09] <AJ004> new kernel and ati drivers and openoffice fixes mostly
[04:09] <dadgumit> AJ004, are you anube like me?
[04:09] <SurfnKid> AJ004, automatic updates?
[04:09] <cwillu> coucho: I believe /etc/inetd.conf will enlighten you a bit :)
[04:09] <AJ004> surfnkid:  The update icon came up in the top right of the screen
[04:09] <coucho> cwillu: i'll take a look
[04:09] <AJ004> surfnkid:  They must have changed the icon
[04:10] <AJ004> surfnkid i remember it being different last time
[04:10] <SurfnKid> AJ004, did my updates ealier too
[04:10] <cwillu> coucho: also check the man pages for that file
[04:10] <dadgumit> man, i wanted to learn ubunto and boy am i
[04:10] <SurfnKid> was it? what color
[04:10] <coucho> cwillu: i think i found it
[04:10] <yipe> sdferfx, it's not like debian at all, "stable" right now is Dapper, and that gets all kind of updates, just today we got a new kernel version
[04:10] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  yes
[04:10] <AJ004> surfnkid:  Didnt it used to be a big update with text or something
[04:10] <AJ004> now it was a red with a star in it
[04:10] <coucho> cwillu: someone else who was helping me with the same problem told me to add a listening port for xvnc4
[04:10] <AJ004> all i know is ubuntu is getting better :)
[04:10] <dadgumit> Aj004 i am rolling the dice too, just gonna let all the updates hit me
[04:11] <cwillu> heh
[04:11] <SKunsai379> wastrel: I know it sounds like a waste of time, but try to save a second copy of the file in abiword and bring it into openoffice to fix it up.
[04:11] <dadgumit>  :)
[04:11] <cwillu> coucho: yep, that'll be it
[04:11] <AJ004> every release seems to have improvements
[04:11] <SurfnKid> AJ004, before it was big, thas right, now its a small update icon
[04:11] <SurfnKid> yeh i agree
[04:11] <SurfnKid> every release puts more strain on my cpu too :P
[04:11] <SurfnKid> need a better cpu
[04:11] <dadgumit> curiosity, where's everyone from?
[04:11] <SurfnKid> thank god for centrino
[04:11] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  i'm just going to arrive early and ask them to give me a copy tomorrow :] 
[04:11] <yipe> sdferfx, edgy will be the next "stable" right now it's not really ready at all, and breaks frequently, but some daring people use it, and as time passes more and more less daring people will use it as it will start breaking less and less often
[04:11] <AJ004> surfnkid i like the new icons, but was that added in dapper or in the updates?
[04:11] <montag_451> ::Cheers for centrinos.::
[04:12] <coucho> cwillu: how do i restart inetd?
[04:12] <SKunsai379> wastrel: Sorry I couldn't help further.
[04:12] <yipe> sdferfx, we don't really have anything that really translated over to "sid"
[04:12] <cwillu> sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart might be it, but that's a guess
[04:12] <dadgumit> meh you guys are all business
[04:12] <SurfnKid> dadgumit, I was from nebulosa NEX2K, as of last year, but today i live in galaxy X earth,
[04:12] <SurfnKid> montag_451, yey
[04:12] <wastrel> SKunsai379:  i just can't believe oowriter honors the stupid password :p
[04:12] <coucho> cwillu: i'll take a look
[04:12] <AJ004> surfnkid:  i cant wait till edgy eft tho cause my evolution keeps crashing and there are still gtk+ bugs which should be fixed
[04:12] <sam__> checked did what it said did not work
[04:12] <dadgumit> SurfnKid is teh funny
[04:12] <wastrel> i bet there's a complie flag for that
[04:12] <wastrel> or a patch
[04:12] <AJ004> gotta reboot
[04:12] <SKunsai379> wastrel: I think that's one of the minor consequences of having M$ Word compatibility.
[04:12] <AJ004> new kernel
[04:13] <SurfnKid> AJ004, i think added in dapper, Breezy had a big bulky red icon if  i recall right
[04:13] <sdferfx> yipe I see. it sounds like edgy is analagous to sid, at least at the moment. So even "stable" releases aren't locked in, eh? But here on Ubuntu's wiki I read about FeatureFreeze
[04:13] <malin> !tell malin about mp3
[04:13] <yipe> sdferfx, it does freeze for I think two weeks BEFORE release
[04:13] <lnxGnome> someone here using the slab menu (the menu in SLED 10)  someone made a .deb but It does not work for me. someone haves it working?
[04:13] <SKunsai379> So can anyone help me with PPC Ubuntu?
[04:13] <yipe> but after that updates and such resume again
[04:14] <sdferfx> oh I see. OK, thank you. : )
[04:14] <catisonh> how can I let someone run a command with sudo without a password?
[04:14] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, it depends on the problem
[04:14] <yipe> so Dapper right now is kind of halfwayt between what debian would call stable and unstable, and Edgy between unstable and sid
[04:14] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - the old cd i was trying to load it off of... the underside... writable side.. it looks melted. :/
[04:14] <yipe> glad I could help:)
[04:14] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: I'm trying to get the CD to boot but my G3 iMac is not agreeing with me.
[04:14] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, that can't be good
[04:14] <unstablesob> Any hints on how to get vmware player working again after I updated the kernel? I assume I need to rebuild the modules but how?
[04:14] <wastrel> okies nite nite
[04:14] <regeya> wow, is there actually work going into edgy right now
[04:15] <SeraVitae> the new freshly burnt cd, won't even boot.
[04:15] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, what happens?
[04:15] <catisonh> anyone here know a lot about the sudo in Ubuntu?
[04:15] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: I'm trying to boot from the CD and instead it keeps booting MacOS.
[04:15] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, you held down the C key at boot?
[04:15] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: MacOS 9.2, to be exact, which doesn't recognize my CD as a valid startup disk.
[04:16] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: Yes.
[04:16] <narfmaster> okay
[04:16] <tailsfan> Question, Do I use linux-headers to compile alsa or linux-source?
[04:16] <sdferfx> arg, update just said this to me Errors were encountered while processing:  /var/cache/apt/archives/libmjpegtools0_1%3a1.8.0-0.2_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[04:16] <montag_451> catisonh: You can give other users sudo access, but that'll allow them to use sudo with anything, and they'll use their own password.
[04:16] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: I'm using a Breezy CD, BTW.
[04:16] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: Any ideas?
[04:16] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, did you double-check that it was the PowerPC version and verify the md5sum?
[04:17] <catisonh> montag_451, yes, but i want to allow a backup program to use tar as root
[04:17] <SKunsai379> Orange pre-printed disk? Check.
[04:17] <tailsfan> Whcih one?
[04:17] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, okay that should work i guess
[04:17] <montag_451> catisonh: Not sure how to handle that one. Sorry.
[04:17] <catisonh> montag_451, it won't enter in a password when prompted
[04:18] <catisonh> thanks anyway
[04:18] <SKunsai379> So what can the deal be?
[04:18] <coucho> cwillu: IT WORKS!!
[04:18] <tailsfan> !linux-headers
[04:18] <ubotu> I know nothing about linux-headers
[04:18] <SKunsai379> It can't be MacOS 9.2, can it?
[04:18] <CurtisB> I have a question -- related to the new .26 kernel upgrade.... everytime I upgrade kernel, or (for example) install the Serengeti usplash screen, I guess Grub is invoked, and it messes up the menu.lst.. where I need it to be hd(0.0) it'll be hd(1.0)... where the heck is it pulling this "default" from, please?
[04:18] <cwillu> coucho: heh :)
[04:18] <coucho> cwillu: had to reboot, but it works
[04:18] <sdferfx> How do I tell Debian not to upgrade some specific thing?
[04:18] <coucho> omfg i'm so happy right now
[04:18] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, what model of Mac do you have there?
[04:18] <CurtisB> tailsfan - linux-headers
[04:19] <tailsfan> Thanks
[04:19] <SeraVitae> whoa what the hell my cd drive just went nuts!!
[04:19] <tailsfan> I'm getting that now :)
[04:19] <cwillu> coucho: I just called a ****, because I support people for free and take the business away from the people who get paid for it
[04:19] <tailsfan> YAY!
[04:19] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: iMac G3 Rev. D...333 Mhz...256 MB RAM...6 GB HD...ATI Rage Pro /w 6 MB RAM.
[04:19] <SeraVitae> KILL IT WITH FIRE
[04:19] <cwillu> oops
[04:19] <cwillu> I just got _called_ a ****
[04:19] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, that sounds fine to me
[04:19] <coucho> cwillu: that's nasty
[04:19] <cwillu> that came out wrong :*
[04:19] <regeya> Syou got called four asterisks, cwillu?
[04:19] <tailsfan> iMac always have MacOS9
[04:20] <cwillu> low blood sugar, I really just shouldn't talk at all right now
[04:20] <coucho> cwillu: tell em to come see me, i'll make em change their minds
[04:20] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, maybe you just got a bad CD - can you download another one?
[04:20] <tailsfan> try to put OSX on it and it'll lock up
[04:20] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: I ordered 5 Mac CDs and have three left.
[04:20] <tailsfan> OT: diabetic cwillu
[04:20] <cwillu> coucho: kinda a freelove vs corporate domination thing
[04:20] <CurtisB> tailsfan - in the wiki and the forums are some posts about my experience with ALSA to get my Echo Mia working, but it could be handy except for the mia details :)
[04:20] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: None of them work.
[04:20] <unity> japanese ubuntu channel where?
[04:20] <unity> !ja
[04:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about ja
[04:20] <AJ004> weird
[04:20] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: But they work in other Macs.
[04:20] <yipe> !jp
[04:20] <coucho> cwillu: yeah it's fuxored
[04:20] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, that is weird - Breezy installed just fine on my G3 iMac
[04:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about jp
[04:20] <AJ004> where can i get a list of the updates in the new ubuntu kernel?
[04:21] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: Or did I get stuck with a retarded iMac?
[04:21] <tailsfan> CurtisB, I'm just trying to get my sound card to work
[04:21] <coucho> cwillu: what are those people doing here anyway?
[04:21] <tailsfan> and anyone know where I can download GLib 1.2.0
[04:21] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: But what did you have on the HD before?
[04:21] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, have you done a firmware update (from the Apple site)?
[04:21] <CurtisB> tailsfan - the posts I refer to walk-through compiling ALSA, incl. getting the proper headers, etc
[04:21] <tailsfan> lol
[04:21] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: D'OH!!! *facepalmed*
[04:21] <tailsfan> Link?
[04:22] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, i recall having the latest firmware on my iMac before i installed
[04:22] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: What's the latest firmware?
[04:22] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, no idea - that was months ago :p
[04:22] <CurtisB> Grub Question! -- where does it get it's "defaults"? When I installed the 686 kernel apparently grub was invoked by the dpkg or something, and it messed up my menu.lst (changed hd(0,0) to hd(1,0)... I'm not sure why
[04:22] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: I think I'd better check it later.
[04:22] <narfmaster> i don't have my iMac handy right now
[04:22] <tailsfan> CurtisB, what sound card did you use?
[04:23] <human39_laptop> how do I change the window manager?
[04:23] <darkyoshi372> I installed an awesome GTK2 theme, but Nautilus and Gedit, among others, use the ugly default Gnome theme! How do I make them pretty?
[04:23] <coucho> cwillu: anyway, again, thanks a lot, without people like you people like me would be very much screwed :P
[04:23] <CurtisB> tailsfan - if you go to /echomia (i think) in the wiki you can see that, or just search ubuntuforums.org for echo mia
[04:23] <digitalhav0c> linux is so cool
[04:23] <coucho> hell yeah
[04:23] <tailsfan> darkyoshi372: where did you get the theme from?
[04:23] <cwillu> lol, np coucho
[04:23] <coucho> later
[04:23] <SKunsai379> narfmaster: Thanks for the info, dude. I'll try it and see what becomes of it!
[04:23] <narfmaster> SKunsai379, no problem
[04:24] <sri_> i want to develope some server(apache)what should i do first
[04:24] <darkyoshi372> tailsfan: It's the whole Candido thing, and I supposedly had to install an engine package to use it.
[04:24] <darkyoshi372> Is that bad?
[04:24] <sdferfx> Can I disable Ubuntu's update notifier?
[04:24] <tailsfan> IDK
[04:24] <CurtisB> sri_ have you installed apache? have you enabled it as a service?
[04:25] <sri_> i want to install it
[04:25] <tailsfan> If you got it from art.gnome.org, did you go to app themes
[04:25] <cwillu> sdferfx: system|prefs|sessions|startup, and disable it
[04:25] <sri_> is it nessasary to learn python
[04:25] <cwillu> sri_: for what?
[04:25] <sri_> to design the site
[04:25] <sdferfx> cool thank you. : )
[04:25] <CurtisB> sri_ sudo apt-get install apache
[04:25] <sri_> ok
[04:26] <sri_> thanku
[04:26] <tailsfan> Thanks for the tip CurtisB
[04:26] <tailsfan> on the linux packages
[04:26] <CurtisB> sri_ no you don't need to know python... you'll need to learn how to config apache, and you may want to learn some php/mysql
[04:26] <tailsfan> and again how do I get GLib 1.2.0
[04:26] <CurtisB> np, mate!
[04:26] <sri_> ok
[04:27] <montag_451> Anyone know of any GNOME applets that would handle battery saving stuff like lowering screen brightness, etc.?
[04:27] <montag_451> ^on a laptop
[04:27] <sdferfx> I need to use amd64-agp instead of agpgart. How do I do that?
[04:28] <narfmaster> tailsfan, install libglib1.2
[04:28] <tailsfan> CurtisB: does your wiki apply to all cards
[04:28] <jsgotangco> montag_451: your laptop function keys should work if its a supported one (dell, hp, toshiba, ibm)
[04:28] <G8trBait> I accidently right clicked an active program on my bottom menu bar, and hit remove, and now my active programs don't show up.  Anyone know how I can fix this?
[04:28] <darkyoshi372> tailsfan: Thanks for the help, it turns out that it only happens when I'm running a specific app as root, which make perfect sense. Again, thanks!
[04:29] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - okay, i reburnt the cd slowly, watched buffer the whole time, went to go check cd, and it's halted at 'checking ./casper/filesystem.squashfs'
[04:29] <CurtisB> tailsfan - that was for 5.10, i need to update it for 6.06... the only real change is that you don't need to set your GCC environment var... as far as other cards, just replace the mia references to the ones for your card
[04:29] <SeraVitae> that was the *same* thing the *other* cd gave errors on. maybe my iso is bad?
[04:29] <montag_451> jsgotangco: They do luckily. I was looking for something that would handle that sort of thing automatically.
[04:29] <tailsfan> K
[04:29] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, you might want to check the iso file's md5sum before you burn
[04:29] <SeraVitae> yeah i am going to do that now
[04:30] <SeraVitae> where can i get an md5 checking program?
[04:30] <fowlduck> SeraVitae, should be built in
[04:30] <fowlduck> SeraVitae, md5sum
[04:30] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, just use a terminal and type md5sum
[04:30] <tailsfan> !make clean
[04:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about make clean
[04:30] <montag_451> man md5sum for more info
[04:30] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - my only other pc is windows
[04:31] <SeraVitae> and this machine wont boot anymore.
[04:31] <SeraVitae> the ubuntu one
[04:31] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[04:31] <SeraVitae> ta

[04:34] <ketetha_> i hve the same question as tailsfan when it comes to window fonts
[04:35] <dadgumit> tailsfan: can't youpull them off your windows box (assuming youhave one)
[04:35] <narfmaster> MS fonts = msttcorefonts
[04:35] <Zewl> How do I use the old dos like installer for ubuntu instead of the gui?
[04:35] <sn00p> Does anybody know how to play  avis that require dovei in linux?
[04:35] <tailsfan> No, I erased my windows for Ubuntu
[04:35] <ketetha_> narfmaster, is that a pkg you can install? mstcorefonts?
[04:35] <CurtisB> tailsfan -  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EchoMia    I just did a quick-and-dirty update for 6.06.. gotta go out of town tomorrow, so if that doesn't have enough detail the thread(s) on the forums ought to help out
[04:36] <dadgumit> zewl hit escp on the install prompt
[04:36] <CurtisB> Grub Question! -- where does it get it's "defaults"? When I installed the 686 kernel apparently grub was invoked by the dpkg or something, and it messed up my menu.lst (changed hd(0,0) to hd(1,0)... I'm not sure why
[04:36] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - MD5 passed.
[04:36] <narfmaster> ketetha_, yes
[04:36] <Zewl> dadgumit, great thanks :)
[04:36] <ketetha_> narfmaster, thankss!
[04:36] <tailsfan> Thanks
[04:37] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, that can't be good news - maybe your CD burner is hosed
[04:37] <ketetha_> btw i downloaded the plugin that LjL told me would allow me to play mp3s on amaroK and it didnt work so does anyone know what else i can do
[04:37] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - i just burnt the cd TWICE at two different speeds, and they BOTH complain about squashfs
[04:37] <arooni> whats the equivalent of contorl alt delete in ubuntu?  i want to kill a prcoess that is killing my machine
[04:37] <SeraVitae> what is the chances of two fresh cds with a passed MD5 failing on EXACTLY the same file?? :P
[04:38] <SeraVitae> i am really unlucky, but am i *that* unlucky? :P
[04:38] <tailsfan> I think you have to set it up as a keyboard shortcut
[04:38] <Gentoon> Can someone help me fix my grub please?
[04:38] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, i'd highly suspect the drive or the CDRs to be bad
[04:38] <CurtisB> Gentoon - i can try, but I'm having a minor grub problem myself
[04:39] <Gentoon> CurtisB: its a little prob nothing complicated
[04:39] <SeraVitae> narfmaster - fair enough, but i think ihave 3 copies now burnt at different speeds all failing on the one file
[04:39] <SeraVitae> im gonna check em all again
[04:39] <Gentoon> CurtisB: can we pm?
[04:39] <CurtisB> sure
[04:39] <G8trBait_> I right clicked on an active program and said 'Remove from Panel' and now, no programs that are running show up.  Any idea's how I can get them back on the top or bottom bar?
[04:39] <ketetha_> does anyone know a plugin that will make amaroK play mp3s
[04:40] <narfmaster> G8trBait, just "Add to Panel" the Window List applet
[04:40] <rebelfallen> I just bought a maxtor external HD. I formatted it to ext3 and am going to load the live ISO onto it. How do I add the drive to my configuration so when I reboot it will try to install the iso?
[04:40] <DShepherd> G8trBait, you talking about the notification area of the window list area?
[04:40] <rebelfallen> im running fedora on my current drive
[04:40] <basis> any way i can find out if someone has tried ubuntu on a toshiba libretto 100ct?

[04:41] <arooni> (its still killing my machine)
[04:41] <G8trBait_> DShepherd: Thank you!
[04:41] <yipe> ketetha_, that first link will show you how to add all those formats (like mp3, mpeg, etc) to ubuntu so they'll play
[04:41] <DShepherd> G8trBait, huh?? amm ok
[04:41] <Zewl> Anyone have any ideas why the gui ubuntu installer wouldn't see a partition set up in partition magic?
[04:41] <G8trBait_> werps.. mean to thank narfmaster.. that fixed it!
[04:42] <pectissimo> arooni:  You first need to locate the PID of the defunct process.  Then you simply kill it.
[04:42] <DShepherd> arooni: system -- Adminis.. -- system monitor
[04:42] <narfmaster> arooni, it's "gnome-system-monitor" in terminal
[04:42] <arooni> DShepherd: how can i pause everything from running
[04:42] <arooni> i mean control alt delete
[04:42] <arooni> brings the task manager on top of everything
[04:42] <arooni> is there a way to do that with linux
[04:42] <sri_> arooni, that is in windows
[04:42] <digitalhav0c> ps -A
[04:42] <DShepherd> arooni: you can restart X.. if you want to...
[04:42] <RadiantFire> er, arooni, no, u can start the system monitor though

[04:44] <DShepherd> SelfHarm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats <-- that's the place you need to go

[04:44] <yipe> what he said
[04:44] <sri_> SelfHarm, if u r using kde?
[04:44] <SelfHarm> not working now that i have ubuntu installed
[04:44] <SelfHarm> gnome
[04:44] <yipe> LiveCD has those packages I think, due to.... make-you-want-to-install-ness
[04:44] <dadgumit> that's weird, why wouldn't I have the K7 kernel?
[04:44] <dadgumit> instead i seem to have teh pentium kernel
[04:44] <SelfHarm> ( : yeah yipe
[04:45] <dadgumit> and I run a dual core AMD
[04:45] <sri_> SelfHarm, then go to synaptic manager & serch for xmms
[04:45] <yipe> because you're on an x86 machine?
[04:45] <dadgumit> oh durr
[04:45] <sri_> SelfHarm, or sudo apt-get install xmms
[04:45] <yipe> sri_, I don't think that's his problem
[04:45] <dadgumit> k7 was pre amd64
[04:45] <narfmaster> dadgumit, isn't that a k8?
[04:45] <dadgumit> yeah it is
[04:45] <sri_> yipe, what is the prob?
[04:46] <dadgumit> crap takular
[04:46] <sri_> yipe, He dont know how to play mp3
[04:46] <yipe> there are packages you have to install after you install ubuntu to make it possible to play mp3s, no matter what player you use
[04:46] <DShepherd> yup
[04:46] <yipe> he's clearly just installed ubuntu, and needs to install the restricted formats packages
[04:46] <ttyfscker> i heard something about automating restricted/nonfree software on ubuntu 6.06.  the guy said that the apps were automatics and easy-ubuntu (sp)
[04:47] <sri_> yipe, ya correct;But i am giving the example
[04:47] <yipe> !easybuntu
[04:47] <ubotu> I know nothing about easybuntu
[04:47] <ttyfscker> is that what they are called?
[04:47] <yipe> !easyubuntu
[04:47] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ ; for help and discussion of easyubuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[04:47] <Fracture> there is a bad problem with apt when installing kernel images.  I just updated dapper to the latest updates, which includes a kernel image.  I ran out of space in /boot, yet the update finished successfully, with errors in the 'changes applied' terminal view.
[04:47] <yipe> ttyfscker, use easyubuntu, automatix is unsafe
[04:47] <ttyfscker> what about automatics or automatix
[04:47] <ttyfscker> yipe why is it unsafe?
[04:47] <DShepherd> SelfHarm: to play mp3s on amarok you need to install libxine-extracodecs
[04:48] <yipe> technical reasons that I didn't quite understand:P
[04:48] <DShepherd> SelfHarm: the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats page tells you all you need to know

[04:48] <DShepherd> richiefrich: where?
[04:48] <crazym> !LVM
[04:48] <ubotu> I know nothing about LVM
[04:49] <SurfnKid> ttyfscker, doesnt it feel good to get away from debian :P
[04:49] <ttyfscker> i was amazed at the live cd with installation.. that makes ubuntu easy for even windows newbies..
[04:49] <sri_> SelfHarm, U have to install the plugins
[04:49] <yipe> it is great, I think it's a big leap forward for newb-friendliness
[04:50] <dm_> Hey guys when installing properitary Nvidia drivers, its asking for a GCC, what package do i install?
[04:50] <sri_> k
[04:50] <montag_451> The video with Nelson Mandela is, by far, the coolest thing that comes with Ubuntu.
[04:50] <ttyfscker> well SurfnKid i use to use breezy on my test box..  i had updates set to download automatically.. one time i rebooted and it went straight to busybox with tty job control turned off.. i couldnt get on the net or nothing to see what caused it or how to fix it.. so i just slapped debian etch on there.. and i hadnt tried ubuntu again until this week.
[04:50] <kaot> dm_: build-essentials
[04:50] <arooni> hey folks
[04:50] <dm_> kaot ok ill try that
[04:50] <arooni> how can i list out all proceesses
[04:50] <dm_> thanks
[04:50] <kaot> arooni: ps aux
[04:50] <Oni-Dracula> montag_451, not the startup sound?
[04:50] <kaot> arooni: or pstree
[04:51] <yipe> ttyfscker, I love that video, so presitigious seeming:D
[04:51] <jammiii> ubuntu's the best...I've been using linux since 1994...this distro has made it possible for me to leave M$ for good.
[04:51] <synd2> Hi, I'm having odd browsing performance. It seems to hang sometimes and after a few reloads, it finally goes thru. I've disabled ipv6 already and it didn't help. Any more ideas?
[04:51] <klees> does anyone have a Canon PIXMA IP5000 printer??
[04:51] <mysterio>  any ideas on how to stop keys from repeating other than unchecking repeat keys
[04:51] <kaot> synd2: i'd recommend running ethereal or something and getting some idea of where you're hanging
[04:52] <kaot> synd2: dns looks, slow server response, etc.  there's a lot between you and the webserver
[04:52] <kaot> s/looks/lookups/
[04:52] <ttyfscker> jammiii,  the only thing i still have to use windows for is pretty bad.. but i have an unsupported webcam.. i have to do video conferencing.. if i could get my cam fixed i could wipe windows off of my dual boot
[04:52] <ttyfscker> yipe, what video are you talking about?
[04:52] <synd2> kaot: Well, if it's any help.. It doesn't hang on any other machines of mine running OS X
[04:53] <yipe> ttyfscker, the one with nelson mandela
[04:53] <yipe> talking about the meaning of ubuntu
[04:53] <jammiii> hmmm...I know the feeling ttyfscker.  There is always "that one app" that does it.  Which cam are you using?
[04:53] <SeraVitae> do you think ubuntu would freak out if i burnt a cd iso onto a dvd instead of a cd?
[04:53] <U2U2U2U2U2U2> does anyone know how to add a beagle desktop search bar to the panel?  the only search-box i'm able to add is the old brute-force search
[04:53] <ttyfscker> i even got my hauppauge WinPVR working in X.. but my logitech quickcam notebook pro (046d-08c3) model isnt supported
[04:53] <kaot> synd2: what's the status bar usually say when it's hanging?
[04:54] <ttyfscker> jammiii,  pwc, quickcam, nor spca5xxx will load it
[04:54] <synd2> kaot: "Looking up <insert site here>..."
[04:54] <ttyfscker> its a rather new cam though..
[04:54] <jammiii> k
[04:54] <jammiii> usb cam?
[04:54] <ttyfscker> if i wanted to modify source code for the drivers i could probably get it to working.. i think the only problem is the USB ID code
[04:55] <ttyfscker> usbcam dont work either
[04:55] <kaot> synd2: yeh so it's hanging on dns lookups, apparently.  couple of things you can try there but none are particularly trivial
[04:55] <jammiii> k
[04:55] <SurfnKid> !busybox
[04:55] <ttyfscker> the kernel isnt recognizing it as a compatible device..  see their are two different models.. mine is the newest.. and it has a different USB ID
[04:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about busybox
[04:55] <synd2> kaot: Okay, I was told DNS earlier too (but have no idea how to remedy it)
[04:55] <kaot> synd2: what i normally do is run a local dns cache for my network, tends to speed things up a bit as there's less reliance on ISP dns servers
[04:56] <davidpl77> hola
[04:56] <jammiii> I wonder if forcing the "older driver" will work?
[04:56] <SeraVitae> Ubunto ISO passes MD5. CD1@40X - hangs on 'checking filesystem.squashfs'. CD2@32X - hangs on 'checking filesystem.squashfs.' CD3@16X - hangs on 'checking filesystem.squashfs'. A forum post for a person installing ubuntu on a USB stick said it froze on checking filesystem.squashfs. Another user reported using 650mb discs (iso is 655MB) causes this problem. I am using 700mb discs. Anyone wanna have a stab at wtf is going on?
[04:56] <stopher> Wow...long nicklist
[04:57] <SurfnKid> ttyfscker, thats cool, well i had been trying linux since march. fedora, debian, even knoppix, but as a windows user i was still not used to linux, or even unix commands, got completely discocuraged, then i dont know how i came across this, and everyone in here has been massively helpful, which is great, command by command
[04:57] <jammiii> g2g ttyfscher...good luck...:(
[04:57] <synd2> kaot: And how exactly do I do that
[04:57] <SurfnKid> ttyfscker, now debian doesnt sound too scary since its still linux
[04:57] <linopil> sopther list is always that long
[04:57] <ceruleantiger> hey, is there anyone here from korea that knows how to install nateon messenger on ubuntu? I have two exchange students here who seem to want it badly, and I have no idea how to do it (especially since all the guides seem to be in korean, and I don't speak korean...)
[04:57] <stopher> Hey guys, i need a tad bit of help w/ a ubuntu-dapper drake LAMP server... anyone got a few minutes?
[04:57] <linopil> stopher:
[04:57] <varsendaggr> hey i was reaind in ubuntu hacks how to rightclick on the desktop to launch a template   by editing the .gnome2/templates     but i don't know hod to do this
[04:58] <stopher> yes linopil?
[04:58] <kaot> synd2: erm.  the short answer is, install a caching dns server such as bind or djbdns, and configure it.  the short answer isn't a good one though.
[04:58] <ceruleantiger> ps - nateon seems to be an exclusively korean thing (?)
[04:58] <kaot> but what's got me scratching my head is why would osx not be having that problem.
[04:58] <kaot> synd2: you behind a router?
[04:58] <pauldaoust> ceruleantiger: heh, must be. never heard of it myself.
[04:58] <linopil> asking here is generally not to a person but to a channel
[04:58] <synd2> kaot: Yeah, WRT54G
[04:58] <FunnyLookinHat> have no fear, I am here.
[04:58] <pauldaoust> stopher: I've had a tiny bit of 'sperience; what's up?
[04:58] <SurfnKid> ttyfscker, so even fedora might be a future thing to try, for now, stickin with Ubuntu, and thankfully Dapper now after a fresh install :D
[04:59] <yipe> ceruleantiger, why don't you let the korean student's translate for you?
[04:59] <stopher> I am loading some files to the machine, but not sure where zcat is located?
[04:59] <kaot> synd2: so you're pointed at the router for dns lookups?
[04:59] <pauldaoust> stopher: golly... uh, same here :)
[04:59] <yipe> students*
[04:59] <stopher> LOL
[04:59] <kaot> synd2: in other words, /etc/resolv.conf shows the same IP address as your router
[04:59] <synd2> kaot: Lemme check
[04:59] <kaot> usually that's how appliances like that work
[05:00] <jobadiah> would appreciate some help to install automatix in dapper
[05:00] <ceruleantiger> yipe: they're business majors and I don't think they would understand what wine even was... don't want to spend like 5 hours installing it...
[05:00] <pauldaoust> stopher: but  you can find the location of any program, as long as it's in the executable path, by going 'whereis mycommand'.
[05:00] <FunnyLookinHat> jobadiah, would you be interested in using easyubuntu instead?  It's easy to use and technically safer.
[05:00] <yipe> jobadiah, NO! Automatix is not recommended, use easyubuntu
[05:00] <pauldaoust> stopher: 'whereis zcat' tells me it's in /bin
[05:00] <ttyfscker> SurfnKid, no i am completely off of any RPM based distro
[05:00] <FunnyLookinHat> !easyubuntu
[05:00] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ ; for help and discussion of easyubuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[05:00] <varsendaggr> ceruleantiger, can you find the source code?
[05:00] <synd2> kaot: nameserver 74.128.1.32
[05:00] <stopher> ./bin?
[05:00] <yipe> ceruleantiger, that's why you just have them translate, not do it themselves
[05:00] <pauldaoust> stoper: just /bin
[05:00] <ceruleantiger> yipe: I mean, I would probably be in for it just for the challenge, but they most likely would not be :P
[05:00] <[Ex0r] > I wonder if there is a way I can fresh install everything without losing all my stuff
[05:00] <stopher> ook
[05:00] <FunnyLookinHat> jobadiah, visit that link that ubotu just posted, it has some really easy instructions. I cna help if you have any questions
[05:00] <synd2> kaot: and nameserver 74.128.1.34
[05:01] <varsendaggr> i was just trying to search for a .deb
[05:01] <[Ex0r] > like... removing all installed apt's and starting over again
[05:01] <jobadiah> wow guess this was the wrong place for that ?
[05:01] <synd2> kaot: That's what's /etc/resolv.conf says
[05:01] <stopher> zcat not found in '/bin/
[05:01] <synd2> kaot: (Both of those)
[05:01] <pauldaoust> stopher: uhhhhhhhhhh...
[05:01] <pauldaoust> one sec
[05:01] <stopher> lol
[05:01] <stopher> ok
[05:01] <narfmaster> stopher, you have "gzip"?
[05:01] <jobadiah> ok thanks
[05:01] <SurfnKid> ttyfscker, yeah? are RPMs a headache?
[05:01] <stopher> not sure, i haven't used any zip program on my ubuntu server install yet
[05:01] <FunnyLookinHat> jobadiah, well, it's just that automatix does have some very risky commands that it runs...  that's all.
[05:01] <stopher> this is the first time i've needed a zip proggie
[05:01] <ceruleantiger> nateon is not open source (to my knowledge), although it is listed as 'mainstream' on wikipedia (!)
[05:01] <foka> AmyJ, Hello!  :-)
[05:02] <FunnyLookinHat> jobadiah, and I've just personally had better luck with easyubuntu
[05:02] <_nano_> Hi, could any one here watch videos on CNN.com ?
[05:02] <FunnyLookinHat> _nano_, I can I think, let me check quick
[05:02] <synd2> kaot: And the WRT54G reports the same DNSes
[05:02] <[Ex0r] > anyone know if you can do that ?
[05:02] <AmyJ> foka: Hi
[05:02] <_nano_> FunnyLookinHat, thanks
[05:02] <poseidon> I have a problem with a harddrive I just put it, I go to disk managerand cant do anything from it (can't partition, can't format,can't mount it etc.), I had to use gparted to partition it and format it..then I open disks manager again and it says there i no partition
[05:02] <ceruleantiger> so no korean speakers here? :( was hoping someone could just say 'type sudo apt-get install nateon-all-packages' :P
[05:02] <sri_> can any one tell about x-chat where the python discussion takes place
[05:02] <foka> AmyJ, Good to see you here!  If you are interested, please come to #ubuntu-cn and #ubuntu-tw also.  :-)
[05:02] <kaot> synd2: yeh.  what kind of connection you on?
[05:03] <synd2> kaot: Cable
[05:03] <stopher> pauldaoust: anything?
[05:03] <[Ex0r] > Anyone know if you can re-install ubuntu without losing hdd data?
[05:03] <AmyJ> foka: AH, will do that
[05:03] <foka> :-D
[05:03] <SeraVitae> And to top this off, i decided just to wait the 3 hours for the net install, and now badger is asking for one of the 3 fucked dapper cds to update from.
[05:03] <[Ex0r] > My pc got very jarbled up installing and uninstalling stuff, and I want to get it all cleaned up again.
[05:03] <sri_> can any one tell about x-chat where the python discussion takes place
[05:03] <SeraVitae> haha. go team ubuntu.
[05:04] <FunnyLookinHat> _nano_, no sorry, I can't.  The problem is that it's trying to detect windows media player 9 rather than just playing the movies...  for all other embedded movies you can probably get them to work by using easyubuntu to install xine and the firefox plugins and whatnot
[05:04] <varsendaggr> sri_,  try /j #python
[05:04] <kaot> hmm.
[05:04] <freeflying|away> AmyJ: hi
[05:04] <_nano_> FunnyLookinHat, yeah i can stream wmv videos in other websites
[05:04] <pauldaoust> stopher: found it. the gzip package provides zcat.
[05:04] <sri_> varsendaggr, thanks i will try it
[05:04] <_nano_> FunnyLookinHat, the CNN website doesn't even let me try to do that
[05:04] <sharms> SeraVitae: Please watch your language or you will need to find another channel
[05:04] <ceruleantiger> [Ex0r] : type in apt-get -f install, that should fix most of the dependencies
[05:04] <SeraVitae> fair nuff.
[05:04] <stopher> Okay, what do i need to do to get to that?
[05:04] <dadgumit> wah
[05:04] <dadgumit> just wah
[05:05] <sharms> thanks!
[05:05] <FunnyLookinHat> _nano_, yea that's because cnn is retarded.   sucks doesn't it?   I get my news videos from foxnews.com
[05:05] <kaot> synd2: check your osx config real quick and see if you've got the same nameservers there.  just curious.
[05:05] <stopher> right now im at a prompt that says: Where is teh zcat which can uncompress gz files?
[05:05] <dadgumit> i just want my computer to work :(
[05:05] <[Ex0r] > ceruleantiger, said there were none, but I know there are.
[05:05] <varsendaggr> how do i find out when my dapper cd will get here?
[05:05] <_nano_> FunnyLookinHat, yeah i guess i better stick to bbc then
[05:05] <[Ex0r] > I am trying to get rid of some nasty source files I didn't need, etc
[05:05] <_nano_> FunnyLookinHat, thanks though for checking it for me :)
[05:05] <FunnyLookinHat> _nano_, yeaaaa bbc is sexy too
[05:05] <FunnyLookinHat> : )   Sorry I couldn' thelp
[05:05] <ceruleantiger> [Ex0r] : sorry to say this, but welcome to dependency hell :)
[05:06] <synd2> kaot: Yeah, same there too
[05:06] <[Ex0r] > ceruleantiger, I am hoping there is a way I can fresh install without losing the data on the hdd, like you can with windows
[05:06] <SeraVitae> Is there any way i can extract the files off a dapper livecd so that i can use it as a repository?
[05:06] <kaot> synd2: i can't for the life of me think of a linux-specific problem that would cause dns lookups to be slow.  that's funky.
[05:06] <sharms> SeraVitae: Did you check the md5's of the iso you downloaded?
[05:06] <SeraVitae> yes.
[05:06] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, sorry I haven't been watching the chat session for your problem, but what's not working?
[05:06] <SeraVitae> it passed
[05:07] <synd2> kaot: :/ When it works, it works great. But more-often-than-not, it hangs. It doesn't hang forever, it eventually goes thru if it sits there long enough
[05:07] <pauldaoust> stopher: sorrry; someone just phoned me. Anyway! where were we... let me just read what you said.
[05:07] <stopher> pauldaoust: /bin/gzip got it
[05:07] <sharms> you should be able to add the cd to your repository using synaptic
[05:07] <CurtisB> any grub gurus about?
[05:07] <pauldaoust> stopher: but no /bin/zcat?
[05:07] <sharms> !tell CurtisB about anyone
[05:07] <SeraVitae> sharms - apparently i can't because the files on dapper cd are like, squished into one file.
[05:07] <stopher> pauldaoust: no
[05:07] <SeraVitae> i have added the cd to repository already
[05:07] <dadgumit> FunnyLookingHAt, this has been a long road, ben trying toget running for about a week and a half now
[05:07] <SeraVitae> it still is trying to download all 1121 packages off the internet.
[05:07] <pauldaoust> stopher: weeeeeeird. And gzip should be included, even in the minimal server install.
[05:07] <sharms> SeraVitae: is it possbile you burned them wrong, my dapper cds have tons file files
[05:08] <jadacyrus> I installed the nvidia drivers from their website, , rebooted and i got an X error saying: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-7174, but this X module has the version 1.0-8762. How do I get the correct kernel module?
[05:08] <SeraVitae> sharms - the iso passed md5.
[05:08] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, oh my....  Do you have a strange hardware setup or somtehing that is keeping you from getting everything working fine?
[05:08] <sharms> SeraVitae: is the iso straight from ubuntu.com?
[05:08] <SeraVitae> how did i burn them wrong, 3 times, at 3 different speeds?
[05:08] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, maybe there is something I can ehlp with?
[05:08] <linopil> be modest not shy .. Ask!
[05:08] <SeraVitae> yes.
[05:08] <SeraVitae> from ubuntu.com
[05:08] <sharms> SeraVitae: how did you burn it?
[05:08] <pauldaoust> stopher: if you go 'sudo apt-get install gzip' what happens?
[05:08] <dadgumit> my current issue is I can't get 3d rendering to workindapper (Although it worked in breezy, which ihad to install becasue of a borked installer in dapper, needed to upgrad)
[05:08] <SeraVitae> with nero
[05:08] <SeraVitae> like i always do..
[05:08] <pauldaoust> stopher: cuz that's really odd
[05:08] <kaot> synd2: i mean it can't help that you're trying to put UDP through NAT, but i haven't seen that cause too much of a problem.
[05:08] <sharms> SeraVitae: describe the process for me
[05:08] <Rizz1> Hello
[05:08] <sri_> he any one tell about where the python discussion takes place?
[05:08] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, what video card?
[05:08] <SeraVitae> i even copied the cd back to the pc to check if the disc didnt burn right, but it copied fine.
[05:08] <sharms> sri_: #python.
[05:09] <dadgumit> FunnylookingHat, not really asus a8r-mvp, x800xl radeon, amd 3800+
[05:09] <stopher> pauldaoust: ill check, but im running a script and can't get to prompt atm
[05:09] <sri_> sharms, ok o will try it
[05:09] <dadgumit> funnylookinghat: nothing out there really
[05:09] <sharms> SeraVitae: describe the steps to burn
[05:09] <digitalhav0c>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY gateway1983
[05:09] <SeraVitae> sharms - badger cd works fine, 3x dapper cds verified, via md5, manual copying, burnt at different speeds all hang at checking filesystem.squashfs
[05:09] <stopher> pauldaoust: wehre is the server config file located? /www/conf/httpd.conf right?
[05:09] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, oooh dang, ATI.  Have you tried installing the video driver via the howto that is on wiki.ubuntu.com?
[05:09] <synd2> kaot: Whatcha mean "UDP through NAT" ?
[05:09] <SeraVitae> the iso contains a huge 600MB+ file called filesystem.squashfs which i assume is the livecd image.
[05:09] <linopil> digitalhav0c: you just told us your password
[05:09] <linopil> not smart
[05:10] <pauldaoust> stopher: Apache 1 or 2?
[05:10] <sri_> sharms, there is a mess like unknown host.my be u misplaced it??
[05:10] <digitalhav0c> oh wow
[05:10] <stopher> pauldaoust: 2.0
[05:10] <digitalhav0c> lol
[05:10] <digitalhav0c> how do i change it
[05:10] <etrask> hi, is there a way to install Ubuntu from the "Desktop Install CD" from outside the x environment? basically I want to use the old-style partitioner, the same as the one on the Server Install CD
[05:10] <linopil> nickserv
[05:10] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat: yes, worked for me in breezy not in dapper
[05:10] <sharms> sri_,: type /join #python
[05:10] <SeraVitae> sharms - also, other people have complained about this issue, when trying to load ubuntu from USB sticks, and also using 650mb cdrs to burn the iso which needs 700mb cdrs.
[05:10] <dr_willis> etrask,  ya could always run the old partitioner.
[05:10] <SeraVitae> however i am using 700mb cdrs.
[05:10] <Rizzo_> Hello
[05:10] <FunnyLookinHat> etrask, there is another installation CD you can download that is not a liveCD (i.e. classic text based installer) but it isn't recommended (not sure why)
[05:10] <pauldaoust> stopher: /etc/apache2/ I think. I just discovered I don't have Apache installed right now.
[05:10] <CurtisB> sharms - i did ask my specific question twicw with no reply...
[05:10] <CurtisB> Grub Question! -- where does it get it's "defaults"? When I installed the 686 kernel apparently grub was invoked by the dpkg or something, and it messed up my menu.lst (changed hd(0,0) to hd(1,0)... I'm not sure why
[05:10] <linopil> no space b4 /msg
[05:10] <SeraVitae> im going to go check it on another pc now.
[05:11] <MTecknology_> How do I open rar files?
[05:11] <linopil> digitalhav0c:
[05:11] <sharms> SeraVitae: I am confused by your description.  Where do you see squashfs and does the live cd boot and a menu come up?
[05:11] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, hold on, I think there are some different things to do from breezy vs. dapper, let me check
[05:11] <FunnyLookinHat> !ati
[05:11] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:11] <digitalhav0c> Type /msg NickServ IDENTIFY gateway1983
[05:11] <stopher> that worked, thanks pauldaoust
[05:11] <kaot> synd2: dns lookups usually work via UDP, a stateless protocol, which means connection-tracking is tricky.  NAT needs connection tracking to figure out what traffic goes where on your internal network.
[05:11] <etrask> FunnyLookinHat: that's exactly the installer i'm looking for...
[05:11] <pauldaoust> stopher: and in Debian/Ubuntu, instead of having a monolithic httpd.conf files, the configuration is broken into a bunch of files and directories.
[05:11] <etrask> and i didn't think i got the LiveCD
[05:11] <sharms> CurtisB: each time you install a kernel ubuntu updates menu.lst
[05:11] <pauldaoust> stopher: the apache thingy worked, or the gzip thingy?
[05:11] <digitalhav0c> unknown switch passwd
[05:11] <sri_> sharms, #python :You need to be identified to join that
[05:11] <kaot> synd2: it still works 99% of the time though
[05:11] <digitalhav0c> hum
[05:11] <etrask> says here ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso
[05:12] <pauldaoust> HEY, FOLKS. on a different note, has anyone tried the sitadelle.ath.cx repository (for installing freevo dependencies) lately? It appears to be down, and I'm wondering if it's gone for good.
[05:12] <sharms> CurtisB: it sounds like in your case, you didn't read the comments, and put your personal settings inbetween the automagic kernels section
[05:12] <sri_> sharms, what that about?
[05:12] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, ooh yea, the directions are different.  I assume you followed the directions specific to dapper, right?
[05:12] <sharms> CurtisB: read the file more carefully and try again.
[05:12] <sharms> sri_: /msg nickserv help
[05:12] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, I don't doubt that you did, i'm just trying to help
[05:12] <dadgumit> funnylookinhat: don't know if it matters ut I have to boot into an older version of the kernel to be function
[05:12] <stopher> both pauldaoust
[05:12] <CurtisB> sharms - okay, thanks
[05:12] <synd2> kaot: I've noticed when I'm on one website, once I get thru to it, I can navigate inside the site fine. When I try to goto a totally new/different site, it hangs. But once I get thru, it works normally
[05:12] <pauldaoust> stopher: excellent. Although I'll probably never understand why it wasn't there in the first place.
[05:12] <stopher> LOL
[05:13] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, ooh, that's a problem.   Definitely.
[05:13] <pauldaoust> stopher: are you in a text-only environment?
[05:13] <linopil> digitalhav0c:  /msg nickserv set password
[05:13] <nezzari> Hmmm, I seem to be having trouble with my Nvidia drivers...I tried restoring the backup generated by the Nvidia installer but it still won't work.
[05:13] <nezzari> X refuses to start/
[05:13] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, Because the graphics driver depends directly on the kernel being solid and having all the source/headers installed
[05:13] <stopher> yes pauldaoust
[05:13] <stopher> im installing frontpage extensions actually
[05:13] <stopher> it's still not working
[05:13] <digitalhav0c> thanks linopil
[05:13] <pauldaoust> are you at the server, or are you SSHing into it?
[05:13] <D-> Is it possible to burn a Ubuntu iso to a DVD-R?
[05:13] <stopher> at the server pauldaoust
[05:13] <linopil> np
[05:13] <dadgumit> Funnylooking: I know, i appreciate the help, this community is great, hopei dint give other impression. So am I SOL? because I dont' think the current kernel works with my motherboard :(
[05:14] <mjr> dadgumit, yes
[05:14] <mjr> um
[05:14] <kaot> synd2: because your browser will (I believe) cache the host IP you're talking to so you don't have to keep looking it up.  Additionally it will keep a single continuous session alive with that webserver.
[05:14] <mjr> D-, yes
[05:14] <kaot> synd2: it's the inital host lookup slowing you down
[05:14] <D-> mjr, could you explain please?
[05:14] <synd2> kaot: I see
[05:14] <D-> I am having issues
[05:14] <kaot> synd2: i'm doing some googling right now
[05:14] <sharms> dadgumit: wait
[05:14] <stopher> i don't think i installed the frontpage extensions in the right place.
[05:14] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, no you aren't SOL yet.   I mean, if I were you I would try re-installing dapper and installing the drivers and everything again after getting all of your kernel updates
[05:14] <sharms> dadgumit: which kind of error are you experiencing
[05:14] <Trae> Is there a good GUI CVS client for Ubuntu?
[05:14] <pauldaoust> stopher: one little trick for the future: if you're in the middle of a script and need to go do something else, you can press <ctrl-alt-F2> or <ctrl-alt-F3> or <ctrl-alt-F4>, etc. You have a bunch of virtual terminals, and you can have all sorts of things running concurrently on them.
[05:14] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, your motherboard, I guaruntee, is supported...
[05:15] <Trae> sans java
[05:15] <jjross> MTecknology_,  look in synaptic for unrar
[05:15] <kazukisan> is there a easyer way of doing 32 bit applications on 64 bit then chrooting  ?
[05:15] <stopher> wow...thanks for the tip pauldaoust
[05:15] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, it sounds liek one of your kernel updates went nassty and caused most of this issue
[05:15] <MTecknology_> ty
[05:15] <sharms> FunnyLookinHat: I went over a bug report a few days ago, it was also an asus, he may have to disable acpi
[05:15] <FunnyLookinHat> sharms, ahhh crapz.
[05:15] <pauldaoust> stopher: yeah, it's pretty nifty.
[05:15] <sharms> not sure though, I missed his earilier text
[05:16] <FunnyLookinHat> sharms, you have the link to the bug report for dadgumit ?
[05:16] <shpond> Hi
[05:16] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat sharms, I can't install dapper, i have to upgrade from breezy to even get operational. If I use the most current kernel (or the one that shipped with dapper) I get a pnpbios error
[05:16] <stopher> pauldaoust: i installed frontpage extensions in /usr/local/frontpage   where the instructions said to, but i still can't load frontpage files
[05:16] <sharms> dadgumit: you need to have linux boot with the no acpi option
[05:16] <dadgumit> sharms FunnyLookinHat: it's not the acpi, I went over that hurdle already
[05:16] <stopher> wierd enough
[05:16] <ryantrip> hey, does ubuntu have a configurable firewall?
[05:17] <pauldaoust> stopher: so, the FrontPage extensions you're trying to install... I've never had to deal with that sort of issue. What are they called and where do you get them from?
[05:17] <sharms> dadgumit: were you the one who filed the bug report?
[05:17] <D-> mjr, do I have to configure the iso file in some way?
[05:17] <kazukisan> is there a easyer way of doing 32 bit applications on 64 bit then chrooting  ?
[05:17] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, pnpbios...   not good.  : (
[05:17] <stopher> they are three files, two in tar.gz's
[05:17] <mjr> D-, no
[05:17] <D-> otherwise Nero is not letting me burn it
[05:17] <DShepherd> ryantrip: not by default.. no. but you can install one if you want
[05:17] <D-> to a CD-R
[05:17] <D-> argh
[05:17] <D-> DVDr
[05:17] <stopher> pauldaoust i had to search for them cuz microsoft stopped distributing them
[05:17] <digitalhav0c> ryantrip, firestarter
[05:17] <dadgumit> sharms, i googled my way past tat prolem, mine, is a pnpbios: resource structure does not contain an end tag (or something along those lines)
[05:17] <pauldaoust> stopher: ohhhh
[05:18] <ardchoille> ryantrip: Ubuntu uses iptables for the firewall. You can install Firestarter for a ui front-end to iptables
[05:18] <dadgumit> sharms: maybe I should file this bug report then?
[05:18] <digitalhav0c> oh yeah iptables
[05:18] <ryantrip> ok cool thanks
[05:18] <digitalhav0c> lol
[05:18] <SeraVitae> sharms, sorry i was away. i just verified the same cd i am using in another computer - it checks fine.
[05:18] <mjr> D-, well, that's a nero problem then, and I don't know nero
[05:18] <D-> I tried extracting the files in the ISO and burning them with nero, but the DVD would not boot after that
[05:18] <stopher> pauldaoust: one more thing, i installed samba, but can't login with network neighborhood on windows, any ideas on something like that?
[05:18] <D-> oh
[05:18] <dadgumit> man, lap top keyboard is a killer
[05:18] <sharms> SeraVitae: I am confused by your description.  Where do you see squashfs and does the live cd boot and a menu come up?
[05:18] <SeraVitae> ubuntu halts during the checking process.
[05:18] <mjr> D-, no, it wouldn't like that
[05:18] <SeraVitae> sharms  - squashfs comes up during live cd boot --> check cd
[05:18] <D-> I figures something with the boot sector...
[05:18] <D-> embedded in the iso :(
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, you could try installing with the text-install CD... there's a small chance it would work better.  That's very strange though that the dapper liveCD does not work for you.
[05:19] <SeraVitae> also if i ctrl+alt+f1 to console, sometimes i got I/O errors.
[05:19] <sharms> dadgumit: if you file a bug report make sure to write all the messages down.  File it under installer, and include steps to reproduce (no matter how simple)
[05:19] <dadgumit> I know you guys don't wanna hear me whine , but the wah part is that I have about 6 more issues to fix after this one
[05:19] <pauldaoust> stopher: yeah. Get angry. That's what I always do when I can't get into a Linux share from Windows :) it doesn't do anything, but it makes me feel better.
[05:19] <D-> do you have a recommendation on burning software for windows?
[05:19] <linopil> numlockx installed but neede for login password wht is the right place for numlockx in /etc/rc..which?
[05:19] <ryantrip> does ubuntu also have a gui for creating ftp servers?
[05:19] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat: nope, been there, done that, same issues
[05:19] <pauldaoust> stopher: what version of Windows?
[05:19] <shpond> ?
[05:19] <synd2> kaot: Any luck? I'm googling as well. You can PM me if you'd like
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, dang.
[05:19] <stopher> pauldaoust: Xp
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, why oh why did you have to get ATI?   ; )
[05:19] <pauldaoust> stopher: yeah, I figured so.
[05:19] <kaot> synd2: possibly found something on a newsgroup, more info in a second
[05:19] <stopher> pauldaoust: LOL
[05:19] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat sharms: at least these things are helping me know I have been going the corect route
[05:19] <[Ex0r] > mm, it appears I have to restart my pc
[05:19] <pauldaoust> D-: yeah. thermite. It burns pretty thoroughly. Not a trace left.
[05:19] <stopher> pauldaoust: tell me im crazy, please :)
[05:20] <sharms> dadgumit: yeah otherwise the bug nazis will reject it :)
[05:20] <stopher> pauldaoust: I can't login as \\ubuntu\kristopher
[05:20] <pauldaoust> stopher: I've had headaches with Ubuntu, Samba, and XP. I can, however, log into Ubuntu shares from my XP box, which is what you seem to be having problems with.
[05:20] <FunnyLookinHat> arg.  the bug nazis have rejected several of mine  : )
[05:20] <D-> well I need to try that then... aluminum and rust iron oxide correct?
[05:20] <D-> =p
[05:20] <kaot> synd2: yeah, this looks familiar now.  install ethereal, please
[05:20] <SeraVitae> okay this is wierd, now it's checking, getting a few progress bars in, then going backwards.
[05:20] <stopher> pauldaoust: yups thats the problem im having
[05:20] <kaot> synd2: going on a hunch here
[05:20] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, I have to go for a bit (take a shower and whatnot)   but I may be back later... I doubt I can solve your problem tonight but I'm usually around if you have a quick question to ask
[05:20] <pauldaoust> stopher: I always have great success using \\192.168.0.102\paul (that's my IP addy on the local net; your mileage may vary)
[05:21] <stopher> instead of ubuntu\
[05:21] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat: preciate it man, i will keep an i out for you when i pop in
[05:21] <dadgumit> gona hit the hay myself :(
[05:21] <pauldaoust> stopher: that's right. sometimes Windows can't see the Ubuntu share because Ubuntu isn't advertising itself properly.
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, I'm really dissapointed to see that dapper isn't working well for you.  : (   (Don't tell anyone I said to try this, but you could give SUSE a try... their package management sucks but it may at least solve some of your other problems?)
[05:21] <TheMoebius> so I'm trying to eject my ipod and it says "Writing data to storage device ZAC'S IPOD, please do not remove the device while this operation is in progress." But its been sitting there for a while and not moving
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> TheMoebius, gtkPod?
[05:22] <pauldaoust> stopher: have you had any luck searching for your Ubuntu computer by going 'View Entire Network' (or whatever it's called)?
[05:22] <stopher> \\192.168.1.101\kristopher  YOU MUST USE: username/username@domaon/\\SERVER\username
[05:22] <dadgumit> FunnyLookinHat I actually had thought about it, but I really wanna see if I can get ubuntu up because of the community around it
[05:22] <D-> :( I really dont keep up with burning software at all for windows, nero has worked fine for most times. If anyone has one they like I want to know otherwise I will google it :(
[05:22] <lepine> is there a way to have the included vnc server run at all times, even when no on is logged in?
[05:22] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, : )
[05:22] <stopher> yes pauldaoust, doing that now to login
[05:22] <FunnyLookinHat> dadgumit, good call
[05:22] <yipe> that's because Ubuntu is comfortable in it's own skin and doesn't feel the need to brag
[05:22] <lepine> ( therefore show to logon screen )
[05:22] <dadgumit> gonna keep up the good fight for a coople more days at least
[05:22] <SeraVitae> well, i just checked the cd works in my other pc.. and here it's still freezing. wierd thing is ive been using these cds on both pcs with no problems at all.
[05:22] <TheMoebius> FunnyLookinHat: was using amoraK, but I disconnected it from there and then it told me it was synced and i should unmount and disconnect it
[05:22] <SeraVitae> holy what the hell
[05:22] <dadgumit> LMAO at these screen savers with no 3d rendering
[05:23] <dadgumit> that is hilarius
[05:23] <SeraVitae> okay now the cd works?!? i didnt even do anything :(
[05:23] <pauldaoust> stopher: hum. Weird. I can always do it by typing the username without the domain.
[05:23] <kaot> dadgumit: it's a screensaver, not quake. what do you need 3d rendering for?
[05:23] <[Ex0r] > TheMoebius, kill the process using it ?
[05:23] <FunnyLookinHat> TheMoebius, try unmounting it and see if it's all good.  If not, you should give Banshee a try, a few of my friends in my LUG have said it works really well with iPod support
[05:23] <FunnyLookinHat> TheMoebius, it's an iTunes clone, basically.
[05:23] <SeraVitae> Hahahha. You know what it is. There's a bug in the process bar.
[05:23] <SeraVitae> It doesn't report correctly.
[05:24] <synd2> kaot: Installed
[05:24] <SeraVitae> Making me think it's hung for 5 minutes, when really it's supposed to show stuff.
[05:24] <lepine> is there a way to have the integrated vnc server run at all times, even when no one is logged in, thus seeing ubuntu's logon screen?
[05:24] <synd2> kaot: And running
[05:24] <dadgumit> kaot: don't NEED it, just funny to see it move so slow after it was moving fast in breezy, it is a 3d rendered screensaver.
[05:24] <SelfHarm> how do i install qt?
[05:24] <kaot> synd2: k, fire that thing up, start a capture on your internet interface, and try to load a new website that you hven't been to in the last few hours
[05:24] <BHSPitMonkey> has anyone had any luck with webcam support? when I try to get a feed from mine, the system freezes. hard.
[05:25] <FunnyLookinHat> hmm
[05:25] <FunnyLookinHat> !webcam
[05:25] <ubotu> webcam is now easy to install on Linux; instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Webcam Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[05:25] <ryantrip> would ubuntu work better than window 98 on a 433 mhz computer?
[05:25] <lepine> !remote
[05:25] <FunnyLookinHat> BHSPitMonkey, Follow those instructions maybe?
[05:25] <ubotu> I know nothing about remote
[05:25] <dadgumit> kaot: plus, if I had it for the screensaver, i would have it for teh quake
[05:25] <lepine> !vnc
[05:25] <ubotu> vnc is a way of doing remote desktop.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !freenx.
[05:25] <kaot> dadgumit: ah yeh, it's like watching a slideshow :\
[05:25] <BHSPitMonkey> gotta love ubotu...
[05:25] <FunnyLookinHat> BHSPitMonkey, oh I know I do   : )
[05:25] <mjr> ryantrip, depends on the memory
[05:25] <FunnyHat_Away> BBL
[05:25] <dr_willis> ryantrip,  i used ubuntu on a Pent 1 - 100mhz laptop and it worked.. i did use a very minimal window manager.. so yes. it CAN work better.
[05:25] <ryantrip> mjr 190mb
[05:25] <nigel_> good night
[05:25] <nigel_> or good whatever the time is
[05:25] <nigel_> ok..
[05:25] <SeraVitae> Okay, this is so wierd. I just booted the cd to check it, checked fine, now the cd won't boot. *sigh*
[05:25] <ryantrip> dr_willis ok cool
[05:26] <nigel_> i have ubuntu
[05:26] <kaot> synd2: also stop the capture after you've started loading the site.  they get big, fast
[05:26] <natan-> lepine - go over to the nomachine website and download their server/client/node and run that its alot better than vnc
[05:26] <mjr> ryantrip, hm, could work well enough. Especially if you use xfce instead of gnome, but even with.
[05:26] <nigel_> i upgraded and put in kubuntu
[05:26] <nigel_> you know , for the bundled kde programs
[05:26] <BHSPitMonkey> my brother's computer has 64MB of memory, win98 runs on it well, but linux distros I've tried have trouble. Xubuntu, for example
[05:26] <ryantrip> mjr u men like kubuntu?
[05:26] <stopher> pauldaoust must just be me
[05:26] <nigel_> and i notice that the loading and shutting down pages
[05:26] <nigel_> the pictures changed from the ubuntu logo , to the kubuntu
[05:26] <nigel_> any way i can change that back ?
[05:26] <D-> DOH, I feel dumb... of course there is a little drop down box at the top left where I select CD or DVD... Sorry for totally wasting you guy's time...
[05:27] <natan-> BHSPitMonkey - even on win98 64 megs of ram is pushing it :P
[05:27] <[Ex0r] > ryantrip, I think performance wise, 98 will be faster, as 98 was designed to run on older 125mhz cpu's, but linux is always more stable
[05:27] <phunkalicious> hullo peoples :D
[05:27] <pauldaoust> stopher: naw, it's not just you... I always used to have tons of problems. I could tell you exactly where to go if you were in graphical mode in Ubuntu, buuuuut......
[05:27] <synd2> kaot: I'm not sure how exactly to do this (I've never done this before)
[05:27] <yipe> don't be embarrased D-
[05:27] <nigel_> natan - ive done that..and nothing went wrong..except for windows , but thats normal
[05:27] <stopher> lol exactly
[05:27] <natan-> :D
[05:27] <ToHellWithGA> could i use the edubuntu icons on vanilla ubuntu?
[05:27] <stopher> i can do sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
[05:27] <ToHellWithGA> i found them really cute
[05:27] <TheMoebius> ok my other problem is that I somehow deleted my Trash, as silly as that sounds. I wanted to empty it so I right-clicked on it and didn't see anything about empty trash so I choose move to trash and now its gone
[05:27] <synd2> kaot: I went to Capture > Options
[05:27] <BHSPitMonkey> natan-, that computer is a frankenstein... it doesn't even have a proper case :P
[05:28] <ryantrip> [Ex0r] : i have 433 mhz though
[05:28] <yipe> the mouse is pretty cute
[05:28] <BHSPitMonkey> it was built out of parts I found as I was cleaning my room
[05:28] <kaot> synd2: nah, just click on the icon right under "file"
[05:28] <synd2> kaot: I suppose eth1 goes somewhere?
[05:28] <natan-> i mean thats not even close to a modern computer
[05:28] <[Ex0r] > ryantrip, that's what I said. Windows 98 was designed for 125mhz cpu's, so 433 would be completely fast for win98
[05:28] <natan-> that thing is probably atleast 10 years old
[05:28] <SelfHarm> can i do apt-get and specify the site without changing sources file?
[05:28] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: um! if you go into a terminal and type ls ~/.Trash what do you see?
[05:28] <[Ex0r] > time to restart
[05:28] <ryantrip> [Ex0r] : oh ok
[05:29] <synd2> kaot: I clicked and went to a site, but I didn't see anything happen in Ethereal
[05:30] <kaot> synd2: back up a sec.  so you clicked on taht icon, the second window popped up, listing your interfaces and packet counts
[05:30] <kaot> synd2: from there, you want to hit "start" next to your internet iface
[05:30] <synd2> kaot: I clicked on the icon under File
[05:30] <kaot> eth0 or eth1 or whatever
[05:30] <Rizzo_> Awsome ubuntu running on vmware!
[05:30] <TheMoebius> pauldaoust: yeah all the files that I've trashed are still there but the icon isn't on the desktop anymore
[05:30] <kaot> synd2: that actualy starts the capture
[05:30] <ceruleantiger> for some reason, Xorg takes 100% of my CPU, and I have no idea why. What are some common causes of this? It never happened until I installed korean language support for some students staying with me
[05:30] <kaot> after you've done that, load a website
[05:30] <pauldaoust> stopher: I'm not quite sure what to do with your FrontPage thingy... I've always been content with plain LAMP, using FTP for uploading... I'm gonna hafta pass this one up. sorry.
[05:30] <kaot> synd2: we want to catch it when it's going slow, so if it pops right up, try a different one
[05:30] <synd2> kaot: I don't see any interfaces
[05:31] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: ah, that's (relatively) easy.
[05:31] <poseidon> !grub
[05:31] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:31] <kaot> meh?
[05:31] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: one sec
[05:31] <kaot> synd2: oh, you have to sudo it.  sorry about that
[05:31] <kaot> synd2: duh.
[05:31] <synd2> :>
[05:31] <stopher> pauldaoust: it's okay :)
[05:31] <kaot> synd2: hopefully you don't have massive lan traffic going on right now, and the only stuff on the wire is gonna be this IRC traffic, otherwise it'll get messy
[05:32] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: in your terminal, go gconf-editor (I don't know why the Ubuntu folk deemed it necessary to remove it from the Applications menu)
[05:32] <synd2> kaot: Yeah, the only thing going on now is this IRC
[05:32] <kaot> synd2: k good
[05:32] <dr_willis> pauldaoust,  in the name of 'user friendlyness'
[05:32] <dr_willis> :P
[05:32] <synd2> (Roommates are gone)
[05:32] <sorcre> Could someone help me for a second? After installing the Nvidia drivers X refused to start so I installed Nvidia-glx. It seems to work fine but whenever I restart my pc I get an X error and have to reinstall it.
[05:32] <kaot> heh
[05:32] <pauldaoust> dr_willis: I can kinda understand it and kinda not. Ah well.
[05:32] <synd2> kaot: So click that button and goto a site?
[05:32] <sorcre> Could someone direct me to a guide for completely removing the Nvidia drivers?
[05:32] <TheMoebius> pauldaoust: ok, I'm with you
[05:32] <drcode> hi all
[05:32] <kaot> synd2: yeah, click "start" and then try to load a site.  again, we want it slow, if it loads right up that doesn't show us what the problem is
[05:32] <pauldaoust> dr_willis: I suppose nobody complains about the absence of regedit from the Start menu in Windows, yet we all use it
[05:33] <drcode> any one know freeware or open source video chat server?
[05:33] <Evilscientist> question:  if I want to set up a linux based "exchange server" for my outlook....what's the program I need?
[05:33] <dr_willis> pauldaoust,  i rarely do :P lol
[05:33] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: navigate to /apps/nautilus/desktop in the configuration editor
[05:33] <pauldaoust> dr_willis: ah, but that's probably because you rarely use Windows.... .right? ;)
[05:33] <ToHellWithGA> when i say "edubuntu icons in regular ubuntu" you say "sure i'll help you with that ToHellWithGA"
[05:33] <synd2> kaot: Ok
[05:33] <ToHellWithGA> edubuntu icons in regular ubuntu
[05:33] <dr_willis> pauldaoust,  heh - dont get me started on windows. :)
[05:33] <pauldaoust> dr_willis: :)
[05:33] <kaot> synd2: then stop the capture once the page starts actually loading
[05:34] <SelfHarm> anyone ever get GRUB error 18?
[05:34] <Evilscientist> meh...any opinion of windows in this channel is biased! ;)
[05:34] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: when you're there, in the right pane you'll see a list of options for the desktop. One should be trash_icon_visible, which I'm hoping is unchecked (otherwise I have no idea where your trash has gone!)
[05:34] <ToHellWithGA> edubuntu icons in regular ubuntu
[05:34] <pauldaoust> Evilscientist: Horrors! I can't believe you'd think we're so prejudiced!
[05:34] <pauldaoust> ha!
[05:34] <Evilscientist> laff
[05:35] <Evilscientist> so...no one knows about exchange server I assume.
[05:35] <ToHellWithGA> .me thinks yall have heard the "when i say 'x!' you say 'y!'" "x!" "y!" "x!" "y!" form
[05:35] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: anyway, make sure trash_icon_visible is checked. Then close configuration editor. Change should be immediate, but you may need to log out and back in again.
[05:35] <dr_willis> not me
[05:35] <TheMoebius> pauldaoust: ah yes, thats it - thanks!
[05:35] <fowlduck> Evilscientist, hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa
[05:35] <phunkalicious> what about exchange :/
[05:35] <Gentoon> Can someone help me fix my grub??
[05:35] <Gentoon> please
[05:35] <pauldaoust> TheMoebius: no problem.
[05:35] <pauldaoust> Gentoon: why yes; I'm quite an accomplished chef myself.
[05:35] <Evilscientist> wanna set up an exchange server for shit and giggles (and backup)
[05:35] <Gentoon> We got it installed to the MBR but it wont boot windows or linux?
[05:35] <kaot> synd2: what's the deal there?
[05:36] <phunkalicious> have you ever set up an exchange server? theres nothing giggly about it :(
[05:36] <Evilscientist> have a samba server pdc set up....what do I need to add exchange...??....
[05:36] <stopher> pauldaoust: w00t im in my samba!
[05:36] <Evilscientist> no...never set one up.
[05:36] <phunkalicious> umm...a windows box? lol :D
[05:36] <pauldaoust> Gentoon: sorry; don't know anything about grub; I just wanted to make a bad pun.
[05:36] <pauldaoust> stopher: rockin'. How did you do it?
[05:36] <Gentoon> says cant mount device and when we try windows  just loops back to the menu
[05:36] <synd2> kaot: One sec, should I pastebin the output?
[05:36] <stopher> i took out \\server\username required
[05:36] <stopher> rofl
[05:36] <kaot> synd2: yeah go for it
[05:36] <Evilscientist> okay....linux equivalent to exchange server....GGGEEZZ!
[05:37] <pauldaoust> Gentoon: when did you install Windows? before Linux?
[05:37] <stopher> not what i wanted but it worked
[05:37] <Gentoon> Anyone good with grub??
[05:37] <pauldaoust> stopher: hey, whatever works.
[05:37] <kaot> mmm.  big ugly packet dumps.  yay?
[05:37] <kaot> lol
[05:37] <Gentoon> pauldaoust: no before it all worked finr till I broke my grub
[05:37] <sorcre> Does anyone know how to remove the Nvidia drivers from Nvidia.com ?
[05:37] <Evilscientist> hey I can't even INSTALL them....sigh.
[05:37] <pauldaoust> gentoon: hm. I think it may be a configuration issue, because grub still does its thing and then tries to pass off control to the OS.
[05:37] <Gentoon> Anyone grub...
[05:37] <stopher> pauldaoust: exactly :)
[05:37] <stopher> pauldaoust: thanks for your help :)
[05:38] <drcode> any idea?
[05:38] <drcode> is there video chat server in linux?
[05:38] <Gentoon> pauldaoust: ya I just need to tweak my .lst but dunno what tweaks to make
[05:38] <tich> i like to watch movies but i hate when the silent part are so quiet you can't hear them and the load parts blow your eardrums to smitherines-- is there some way to level the volume so that a movie always stays within a certain range?
[05:38] <pauldaoust> gentoon: could you paste your /boot/grub/grub.conf into the #flood channel here on freenode.net?
[05:38] <phunkalicious> umm i don't know if there is a direct exchagne equivalent, maybe hula?
[05:39] <Gentoon> Ill paste it to #Foobar22
[05:39] <phunkalicious> you probably have to hack together postfix and then some calendaring thing
[05:39] <tich> (loud not load)
[05:39] <pauldaoust> Gentoon: kay, wait a sec; I'm not there yet
[05:39] <Gentoon> k
[05:39] <Evilscientist> anyone tried open xchange?
[05:40] <kaot> oh crap i missed the allstar game
[05:40] <synd2> kaot: Actually I"m not sure how to put this on a pastebin
[05:41] <kaot> synd hang on watching allstar game highlights
[05:41] <pauldaoust> doooooooooes anybody know what's up with the sitadelle.ath.cx repository? it appears down, but I don't know if it's gone for good or not. I really wanna try out Freevo, which relies on packages from sitadelle.ath.cx
[05:41] <synd2> kaot: Ok
[05:41] <ToHellWithGA> i would like to check which packages i have installed *and* which packages are installed by default so i can figure out what i've added to setup somebody else's box very similar to mine
[05:41] <kaot> coo AL won
[05:42] <kaot> synd2: alright hang on gonna see if there's a way to pull a txt file out of that
[05:42] <FunnyHat_Away> kaot, AL won?!   SWEEET
[05:42] <FunnyHat_Away> go white sox!
[05:42] <FunnyHat_Away> ;)
[05:42] <FunnyHat_Away> (still away)
[05:43] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: what do you mean by "default" .. during the install process you usually say what kind of packages to install
[05:43] <kaot> synd2: you still got ethereal open?
[05:43] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: the closest you could get is the list of essential packages
[05:43] <synd2> kaot: Yea
[05:43] <ToHellWithGA> brainsik: something like that
[05:43] <ToHellWithGA> i know every time i install i have to get build essential and *-dev
[05:43] <kaot> synd2: file -> save as -> file type libpcap ( i think that's default), name it, and email it to me
[05:44] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: easier would just be to get your list and their list and see what's missing, don't worry about the "default"
[05:44] <SurfnKid> ok i have installed xchat GNOME IRC, started it and changed the transparency background, suddenly poof, its gone, and i cant restart it, should i remove the .xchat... dir?
[05:44] <Evilscientist> meh
[05:44] <ToHellWithGA> brainsik: so any overlap won't cause problems?
[05:44] <lepine> how do you enable the xdmcp protocol in the 'terminal server client' ?
[05:45] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: problems with what?
[05:45] <lepine> !xdmcp
[05:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about xdmcp
[05:45] <lepine> !xdm
[05:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about xdm
[05:45] <ToHellWithGA> such as a 386 kernel installing by default and me now using a 686smp kernel
[05:45] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: hmm
[05:46] <lepine> does anyone know more about terminal server client + xdmcp the ubotu?
[05:46] <lepine> *then
[05:46] <t0dd> whenever I type ifconfig eth1 up I get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory" ..has anyone encountered this problem before? : (
[05:46] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: my guess is there aren't many things like that.. but, it doesn't really matter if both kernels are installed
[05:46] <ToHellWithGA> i'd be worried that installing from a beastly list of packages could be a bad thing if some of the low-level stuff doesn't match up
[05:46] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: that's what dependencies are for :)
[05:46] <synd2> kaot: I need an email addy
[05:47] <ToHellWithGA> .me puts his faith in dependencies and will just give it a go
[05:47] <kaot> synd2: you get that privmsg?
[05:47] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: debian dependencies are awesome .. i assume Ubuntu is basically the same
[05:47] <SurfnKid> t0dd, what card?
[05:47] <t0dd> Broadcom 4306
[05:47] <synd2> kaot: Sent
[05:47] <SurfnKid> perfect i have that one
[05:48] <t0dd> yay!
[05:48] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: anyway, to get a list of installed packages, you can run this on the command line: dpkg -l | grep '^ii '
[05:48] <SurfnKid> PM me
[05:48] <kaot> synd2: k stand by
[05:48] <ardchoille> kaot: synd2 isn't id'd so probably not able to reply to your pm
[05:48] <ToHellWithGA> thanks brainsik
[05:48] <kaot> ardchoille: ya no biggie
[05:48] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: or this for something cleaner: dpkg -l | grep '^ii ' | cut -f 3 -d ' '
[05:49] <BHSPitMonkey> hey
[05:49] <BHSPitMonkey> this installation script prompts a "su" during it
[05:49] <_nano_> Hi, how do I associate a key board shortcut to console window. like if i press that shortcut the console window comes to focus, and if there is no console window already loaded, it loads one
[05:49] <BHSPitMonkey> but I don't know the root password :S
[05:49] <ToHellWithGA> brainsik: does that carrot in '^ii ' indicate a new line?
[05:49] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:50] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: indicates the beginning of a line
[05:50] <lepine> how do you enable XDMCP in the terminal service client thing?
[05:50] <ardchoille> BHSPitMonkey: which script?
[05:50] <BHSPitMonkey> ardchoille, the one for quickcam webcams.
[05:50] <ToHellWithGA> thanks a bundle.  you taught me a new command and a new regexp
[05:50] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:50] <_nano_> Hi, how do i associate a shortcut to the console window? like if I press that shortcut the console window comes to focus(if there's already one loaded, or a new one gets loaded if there is none)
[05:50] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:51] <brainsik> ToHellWithGA: :) cool!
[05:51] <BHSPitMonkey> if I run the script with sudo, it tells me it wants me to run the script as user instead
[05:51] <olrrai_1> how to auto "up" an interface when ubuntu starts?
[05:51] <BHSPitMonkey> so I do, and this su is a pain
[05:51] <kaot> synd2: hm.  filesize 0.  you sure you did that right?
[05:51] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:51] <stopher> pauldaoust: If you want logons with samba you need to run: sudo smbpasswd -a <USERNAME>  then follow the on-screen instructions, it will add you to the 'accessable' list
[05:52] <LoneWlf> does anyone know what to do about issues with firefox locking up?
[05:52] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:52] <LoneWlf> Tis truly inconvenient
[05:52] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:52] <natan-> is there a hotkey by default to switch desktops?
[05:52] <stopher> natan: try cntrl+alt+f1/f2/f3/f4
[05:52] <Brentendo21> Can i get some help plz? after installing XGl all my windows are stuck to the top without title bars!
[05:52] <olrrai_1> natan: ctrol-alt  left or right
[05:52] <spanglesontoast> hey
[05:53] <Madpilot> Brentendo21, try #ubuntu-xgl
[05:53] <spanglesontoast> does anyone know how to install ubuntu as a server
[05:53] <Brentendo21> thx Madpilot
[05:53] <pauldaoust> stopher: heh, where did you get that tip from? that's a good one
[05:53] <spanglesontoast> so I don't have to go through the gui
[05:53] <Trae> ugh
[05:53] <olrrai_1> spanglesontoast: download the server version
[05:53] <stopher> pauldaoust : hehe
[05:53] <stopher> pauldaoust : tis a secret
[05:53] <kaot> synd2: still there?
[05:54] <Trae> I have installed this: sun-java5-jre
[05:54] <stopher> pauldaoust : :P
[05:54] <Trae> I'm trying to run smartcvs
[05:54] <spanglesontoast> do I have to download the server version?
[05:54] <olrrai_1> spanglesontoast: download the server version
[05:54] <stopher> okay bbiaf
[05:54] <spanglesontoast> no
[05:54] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Anyone know why only the Root can edit files?  I can't edit any .conf files or any .list files, especially my sources.list file.
[05:54] <synd2> kaot: I sent again
[05:54] <spanglesontoast> I haven't got any discs
[05:54] <Trae> and it's saying this: Warning: /bin/java does not exist
[05:54] <kaot> synd2: that's better
[05:55] <olrrai_1> Neon_Gen_Eva: is the most importand security reason
[05:55] <Trae> october@cigars:~/Desktop/smartcvs-5_0_4/bin$ which java -> /usr/bin/java
[05:55] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, because they're owned by root perhaps and not your user id?
[05:55] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:55] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Yes, I get that, but I'm the only user on here, but I can't edit anything.
[05:55] <Neon_Gen_Eva> so, any way I can convert them to mine?
[05:55] <kaot> synd2: did you experience slowness while you were capturing this?
[05:55] <Hexidigital> ugh... sorry... i must've feel asleep on my keyboard  *blush*
[05:56] <spanglesontoast> guess I'll just have to stick with fedora for a server
[05:56] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, you could install sudo and run things as sudo
[05:56] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:56] <Hexidigital> ??
[05:56] <spanglesontoast> ubuntu sucks if I have to get another disc
[05:56] <drcode> no one know about video chat server?
[05:56] <soop> spanglesontoast: why?
[05:56] <synd2> kaot: Yes
[05:56] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, or, you could change the perms to 664 and put yourself in whichever group
[05:56] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:56] <soop> spanglesontoast: what do you need another disc for?
[05:56] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, or you could just change your uid to 0
[05:56] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:56] <Neon_Gen_Eva> ..what?  as in terminal use "Sudo apt-get and other related things?
[05:56] <LoneWlf> necrodearia, that's always fun
[05:56] <Hexidigital> Hexi
[05:56] <spanglesontoast> I need to get the server version
[05:56] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Lonewlf, already tried that, no dice, sorry
[05:57] <spanglesontoast> which sucks
[05:57] <Hexidigital> can you guys see that?
[05:57] <phunkalicious> no
[05:57] <kaot> synd2: ah yeah, digg.com, about 5 secs?
[05:57] <ToHellWithGA> Hexidigital: see what, man?
[05:57] <kaot> synd2: looks like the first request was dropped, took 2 to get a response
[05:57] <Hexidigital> you dont see my nick saying Hexi?
[05:57] <phunkalicious> shh, we can't see it :|
[05:57] <Hexidigital> must be a bug
[05:57] <synd2> kaot: Yeah. I did another one and it took 13s
[05:57] <ToHellWithGA> i don't see that
[05:57] <Hexidigital> good... something wierd's going on w/ konversation
[05:57] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, find /etc -type f -exec chown <youruserhere> {} \;
[05:58] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, but I really don't recommend that
[05:58] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, as it will most probably break things
[05:58] <kaot> synd2: is that one in here?  not seeing it
[05:58] <synd2> kaot: No, sending now
[05:58] <ToHellWithGA> ToHe
[05:58] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Well, it's the only option I have left.  Let me review my others, make sure I checked them all out.
[05:58] <olrrai_1> anyone remember how to auto "up" an interface when ubuntu starts?
[05:59] <stopher2> if noone has answered it Neon_Gen_Eva: you need to do 'sudo nano <PATH HERE>' in ubuntu text mode
[05:59] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, I wouldn't do it... you're asking form something that doesn't make a bunch of sense... the files you're talking about editting are system files, and should only be updated by the root user
[05:59] <Gentoon> Anyone done grub with LVM?
[05:59] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, this isn't windows, and there is a REASON for privilege separation here
[05:59] <lepine> does anyone have a howto on how to enable remote sessions with ubuntu? i've enabled remote logins ( login window, allowed remote, configured xdmcp), but at the client, 'terminal server client', i cannot select the 'xdmcp' protocol, and none of the others work as i wish they did. RDP doesn't work, VNC just gives my my current session. I want a remote LOGIN.
[06:00] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, I'm sure that there is a group that you can put yourself in that will give you the permissions that you desire... system, bin, daemon, wheel, something
[06:00] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Lonewlf, i'm in the root group
[06:00] <Neon_Gen_Eva> and it does nothing
[06:00] <Neon_Gen_Eva> unless i am root user
[06:00] <kaot> synd2: empty
[06:00] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, and if you install sudo and config it, then all you have to do is call the editor from the command line, like 'sudo vi /pathtofile' or 'sudo gnotepad /path/to/file'
[06:00] <Gentoon> ANYONE at all done LVM with grub?
[06:00] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, and it will temporarily escalate your privelege to root
[06:01] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, the other thing that you could do is put sudo in the command line for your editor
[06:01] <stopher2> sorry Gentoon, no.
[06:01] <LoneWlf> Neon_Gen_Eva, anywho, good luck
[06:01] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Ahh... great.
[06:01] <stopher2> how can ubuntu not come with 'sudo'?
[06:02] <ttyfscker> i am trying to get this easyubuntu to work.. but it gives me an error saying fix broken packages first.. i did apt-get -f install.. nothing is broken.. whats the deal with this?
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> it does
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> I have latest version
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> and I do call files from command line
[06:02] <stopher2> then try sudo nano /path/to/file/here
[06:02] <synd2> kaot: Ok, now
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> but I still can't edit them or save edited ones
[06:02] <stopher2> nano is an editor
[06:02] <synd2> kaot: Sorry, having a hard time with this trackpad :/
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Allright
[06:02] <stopher2> then F2 out of it
[06:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> I'll try it then.
[06:02] <stopher2> push Y enter enter to save
[06:03] <stopher2> example: sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
[06:03] <GaiaX11> ttyfscker: You can fix broken packages using synaptic
[06:03] <siriusnova> hello can Ubuntu use XFS as its root partition?
[06:03] <ttyfscker> GaiaX11, the thing is that i have no broken packages
[06:03] <siriusnova> if i use the live cd to create a root partition with xfs
[06:03] <siriusnova> instead of ext3
[06:03] <Gentoon> stopher2: you know how to setup grub with an lvm drive?
[06:03] <ttyfscker> GaiaX11, i know all about synaptic.. i prefer using the command line though..
[06:03] <GaiaX11> ttyfscker: See in synaptic
[06:04] <GaiaX11> ttyfscker: it can show you that
[06:04] <ttyfscker> so does apt-get -f install
[06:04] <regeya> siriusnova, I doubt it; without knowing at all, I'd bet you'd have to make a separate ext2 /boot.  don't know about any other wrinkles
[06:04] <Gentoon> What script does the Ubuntu installer use to config grub cause its the only way I know how to setup my grub so it works right!
[06:04] <GaiaX11> ttyfscker: and if you have them the program will fix
[06:04] <Gentoon> Any devs here?
[06:04] <ttyfscker> GaiaX11, yes i know.. it does the same thing as apt-get -f install..
[06:05] <Gentoon> Can anyone even hear me?
[06:05] <ttyfscker> but just to make you happy.. synaptic shows no broken packages either
[06:05] <siriusnova> im sick of fscks every 38 times i reboot
[06:05] <regeya> Gentoon, if you were a true gentooer you'd have edited your grub config via nano by now *wink*
[06:05] <GaiaX11> ttyfscker: Ok. Only trying to help :-)
[06:05] <regeya> siriusnova tune2fs
[06:05] <regeya> !tune2fs
[06:05] <ubotu> I know nothing about tune2fs
[06:05] <Gentoon> regeya: I have tried, this isnt my sn just the pnly reged one I could remember
[06:05] <siriusnova> lol
[06:05] <regeya> you're kidding!
[06:06] <ttyfscker> i know GaiaX11, but im not a n00b heh
[06:06] <lepine> can someone please tell me how to enable xdmcp support for tsclient so i can login remotely to another ubuntu installation?
[06:06] <Gentoon> regeya: and i dunno how to rewrite it for LVM
[06:06] <lepine> while being logged in locally
[06:06] <kaot> synd2: crap man.  that last time took 5 requests to get a response from DNS
[06:07] <kaot> synd2: both servers, even
[06:07] <Gentoon> If I knew what the installer used I could just use that
[06:07] <Gentoon> regeya: can you help m please
[06:07] <synd2> kaot: Doesn't sound like a good thing
[06:07] <regeya> ubotu, no, tune2fs is a utility to tune several asects of ext2 and ext3, including max mount counts, intervals between fscks, and enabling btree hashes.  see 'man tune2fs' for more details.
[06:07] <kaot> synd2: meh.  and in both cases it was digg causing the slowdown.  i saw no problem from my end
[06:07] <Gentoon> No devs?
[06:07] <kaot> synd2: well i shouldn't say "causing" the slowdown, but those were the slow lookups
[06:07] <regeya> Gentoon, I haven't used lvm since it was lvm (rather than lvm2) and even then it was a f**ked gentoo install
[06:07] <synd2> kaot: Really? Lemme try another site.
[06:08] <regeya> !tune2fs
[06:08] <ubotu> I know nothing about tune2fs
[06:08] <jobadiah> I installed easyubuntu but when I open the folder that it is in in I see no executable file
[06:08] <Gentoon> regeya: Im not installing gentoo
[06:08] <kaot> regeya: there's no fscked install like a gentoo fscked install
[06:08] <Gentoon> regeya: can you turn off lvm?
[06:08] <regeya> what!
[06:08] <regeya> I take it it's not possible for mere mortals to add facts to ubotu's database.
[06:08] <Gentoon> regeya: ubuntu when I had it before configged grub fine automatically
[06:09] <regeya> !abuse ubotu
[06:09] <ubotu> I know nothing about abuse ubotu
[06:09] <regeya> what!
[06:09] <Gentoon> so I wanna know what it used to do it
[06:09] <regeya> Gentoon, I surely wish I knew.  Sorry about the insult, BTW.
[06:09] <Neon_Gen_Eva> stopher2, it looks like it works now.  Thanks a bundle.
[06:09] <Nezzari> Does anyone know how to completely remove all Nvidia drivers?
[06:10] <Gentoon> Any Devs in here?
[06:10] <regeya> boink.
[06:10] <Gentoon> I cant boot linux I cant setup LVM in Grub someone please help
[06:11] <aaloon> im on my new archos400 handheld
[06:11] <bleaked> Neon_Gen_Eva: did you follow a guide of some sort?  if so, couldn't you just remove the packages you installed?
[06:11] <Neon_Gen_Eva> bleaked, you mean Nezzari.
[06:11] <synd2> kaot: Another sent
[06:12] <kaot> synd2: k.  also note that even tho you just went to digg like, 10 minutes earlier, it had to be looked up all over again.  that's where a local dns cache comes in handy
[06:12] <kaot> synd2: anyhoo lemme look at this one real quick
[06:12] <kaot> jeez man that's huge
[06:12] <bleaked> aaloon: did you install *nix on it?
[06:12] <aaloon> i can shh into my ubuntu machine from my handheld.but i cant shh from my pc to my handheld
[06:12] <kaot> lol
[06:12] <Dial_tone> what xterm can I get a borderless window with?
[06:13] <Gentoon> So no one can help?
[06:13] <yipe> Dial_tone, that's not a function of the terminal, it's a function of the window manager
[06:13] <synd2> kaot: I see
[06:13] <aaloon> im not sure what is th?
[06:14] <yipe> if you're on gnome you're using metacity, and metacity can't do borderless windows, but you can download another WM like sawfish, and that can be used within gnome to make borderless windows
[06:14] <Dial_tone> ah
[06:14] <bleaked> yipe: not necessarily.. some terminals allow you a minmal display..some allow you to remove the border
[06:14] <catisonh> anyone successfully using a backup program with ubuntu?
[06:14] <aaloon> what is *nix??
[06:14] <Gentoon> bleaked: can you help with grub?
[06:15] <bleaked> Dial_tone: so do you want a borderless window on your terminal, or any window on your desktop?
[06:15] <aaloon> join #archos
[06:15] <aaloon> oops
[06:15] <bleaked> Gentoon: idk, probably not..what's your problem?
[06:16] <Dial_tone> I wanted a borderless transparent xterm
[06:16] <lepine> is it normal that the terminal server client does not offer me to connect with 'xdmcp' ?
[06:16] <Sirrush> aaloon, *NIX is Unix .. Linux .. Minix all those NIX Os's
[06:16] <Dial_tone> with gnome
[06:16] <kaot> synd2: hm.  slow lookups on both primary and secondary ns.  problem isn't what i thought it would be, which is AAAA record queries (ipv6) timing out on NS's not configured to reply to those.
[06:16] <Trae> Dial_tone, heh
[06:16] <Trae> anyone use lincvs?
[06:16] <Gentoon> bleaked: lvm with grub
[06:16] <kaot> synd2: don't even necessarily see a problem, but the 5 second timeout isn't helping
[06:16] <yipe> bleaked, how is that possible when metacity controls the window features and doesn't allow borderless?
[06:17] <Sirrush> Gentoon,  logic volume managment
[06:17] <synd2> kaot: :/
[06:17] <bleaked> yipe: not sure, but it's possible.  have you tried the xfce Terminal?  it does it, regardless of what WM or DE you happen to be running.
[06:17] <unrooting> are u able to install mythtv and ivtv on ubuntu?
[06:17] <Gentoon> Sirrush: I guess
[06:17] <kaot> synd2: you could reduce the timeout to something like 2 seconds so when the ns DO drop the queries, it doesn't take as long to retransmit
[06:18] <Sirrush> Gentoon,  http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
[06:18] <Sirrush> Also if you go to section 7.2
[06:18] <bleaked> Gentoon: that's not a problem and/or question.. "lvm with grub" means nothing to me.
[06:18] <soop> unrooting: anything can be installed in ubuntu
[06:18] <bleaked> Gentoon: or at the very least, it's a vague statement
[06:18] <Sirrush> there is a section for Debian which ubuntu is based off
[06:18] <Sirrush> I'd give that a try
[06:18] <synd2> kaot: Do I do that within Firefox?
[06:19] <unrooting> soop: oo really i have only used gentoo
[06:19] <kaot> synd2: nah that's handled by the os.  add to your /etc/resolv.conf "option timeout:2"
[06:19] <lepine> does anyone even have a clue for the xdmcp / remote session thing ?
[06:19] <kaot> synd2: hopefully that doesn't get overwritten next time your lease re-ups
[06:20] <Sirrush> Gentoon,  let me search a bit more see what I can come up with
[06:20] <kaot> synd2: i think there's a "supercede" option in dhclient so that'll stick but i haven't played enough with it
[06:20] <unrooting> i tried ubuntu once but it wasn't in its software loader
[06:20] <kaot> synd2: plus i'd look at something like a bind or djbdns cache, cuz they're handy anyway
[06:20] <kaot> synd2: but that's a little complicated, i dunno how much time you want to spend on that
[06:21] <synd2> kaot: Okay
[06:21] <kaot> synd2: and the boxes i've got that are config'd that way are all down at the moment.  figgers.
[06:21] <Gentoon> Sirrush: thx
[06:21] <kaot> and i STILL don't know why your linux box is getting slow responses but the others aren't.  the hell.
[06:21] <kaot> :\
[06:22] <kaot> synd2:  you sure no one else is having problems?
[06:22] <Neon_Gen_Eva> can someone explain how to close out another session of Ubuntu?  Such as if you hit Ctrl+Alt+F1, but can't seem to logout?
[06:22] <soop> unrooting: check www.ubuntuguide.org and google is your friend, i know it was dugg the other day www.digg.com
[06:22] <Gentoon> Sirrush: what was that url again?
[06:22] <kaot> (then again, maybe they've got shorter timeouts.)
[06:22] <synd2> kaot: Certain

[06:28] <eternalsword> anyone know how to allow a program to overlap gnome-panels?
[06:28] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Well, I've learned somethign new today
[06:28] <Sirrush> soop,  I took a CompTia Linux+ class there was acutally one hot lookin chick there
[06:28] <robo> im trying to add an IDE RAID card to my debian distro, but it seems that when i add the card, the PCI bus is intitialized prior to the IDE bus, and so the drives that are attached become hda, there-by not allowing me to boot from the drive that should be hda on the on-motherboard primary IDE controller
[06:28] <soop> oh dude, we just hired the sickest looking machinist
[06:28] <soop> she's 19 and hot ...
[06:28] <Sirrush> lol
[06:28] <soop> imagine a hot 19 year old chick coveralls around the waste, turning metal on a lathe all day without a/c
[06:29] <IcemanV9> soop, Sirrush: plz in #ubuntu-offtopic 
[06:29] <robo> soop: what kind of machine work do you do?
[06:29] <soop> IcemanV9: sorry for interrupting your conversation
[06:29] <dibblego> on the front of my Dell laptop, I have a series of audio controlling buttons - only the volume ones work with xmms - is it possible to get the others working?
[06:29] <Sirrush> Sorry IcemanV9
[06:29] <soop> robo: sysadmin for an evil oil company, we make pump jacks etc.
[06:29] <soop> dibblego: what buttons?
[06:29] <soop> play, etc?
[06:29] <SeraVitae> dibblego - yeah
[06:29] <dibblego> soop, play, pause, next track, previous track, stop
[06:29] <SeraVitae> you just need to find out what keyboard code is sent
[06:30] <SeraVitae> there is a tool to do that, because i did something similar on nix ages ago
[06:30] <SpAwN> can anyone help me get my sound working here is some info http://pastebin.ca/85768 ...i have everything in alsamixer up and i have external apmlifier off
[06:30] <dibblego> SeraVitae, that's what I guessed
[06:30] <soop> could just drop to a console and look for the response couldnt you? or gedit or pico or something?
[06:30] <nalioth> !offtopic
[06:30] <robo> soop: nice, chick machinists are like angels
[06:30] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:30] <Newbuntu> My linux archos handheld has voip PChone software and wifi built-in, I was wondering if I ordered voip service, can I make calls from my handhelds wireless, remotlety (away from home) using my homes voip account?
[06:30] <Sirrush> Gentoon, check out this link might give ya some ideas http://doc.rocklinux.org/wiki/RootOnLVM
[06:30] <SeraVitae> dibblego - it was years ago so i cant really help but i know it can be done, try googling
[06:30] <soop> robo: i ran into her today in the coffee room I just wanted to shake her hand man cuz like damn
[06:30] <soop> not too many women going into the trades these days
[06:31] <nalioth> robo: soop: hot sweaty chicks (of any employ) talk in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[06:31] <soop> nalioth
[06:31] <Gentoon> Sirrush: what was that url again?
[06:31] <soop> : thats the silliest thing i've seen but i'll try
[06:31] <Sirrush> Gentoon, check out this link might give ya some ideas http://doc.rocklinux.org/wiki/RootOnLVM
[06:31] <IcemanV9> dibblego: system > preferences > keyboard-shortcuts might work for you?
[06:32] <dibblego> IcemanV9, maybe - the buttons that aren't working are set to "disabled" - I wonder now what I set them to
[06:32] <robo> soop: it sucks cause most hot chicks either have some random baggage or are completely retarded...i find it best to simply keep them as fantacies
[06:33] <nalioth> robo: soop is in #ubuntu-offtopic waiting to talk about your subject, please join him
[06:33] <robo> anyone have any idea as to how to remedy my deleima?
[06:33] <kaot> synd2: you still there?
[06:33] <IcemanV9> dibblego: just press the key and see if it registers or not
[06:33] <dibblego> volume mute is set to 0xa0, volume down 0xae, volume up 0xb0
[06:33] <dibblego> IcemanV9, duh, thanks
[06:33] <synd2> kaot: I a
[06:33] <synd2> I am*
[06:33] <Newbuntu> another question I have is, I can ssh from my handheld into my ubuntu box, but every time I try to connect from my ubuntu box into my handheld it says remote refuses connection
[06:33] <Gentoon> Im laggin hard
[06:33] <Gentoon> whats that URL again?
[06:33] <Gentoon> Sirrush:
[06:33] <Newbuntu> I have openssh server and client on both
[06:34] <Sirrush> Gentoon, http://doc.rocklinux.org/wiki/RootOnLVM
[06:34] <Gentoon> I lag badly
[06:34] <Sirrush> It's OK Gentoon
[06:34] <nalioth> Newbuntu: does your handheld have a ssh "server" running on it?
[06:34] <Newbuntu> nalioth yes
[06:34] <dibblego> IcemanV9, even when I set them, they don't work
[06:34] <Newbuntu> it should just run automatically if I have it eh? if im online..
[06:34] <nalioth> Newbuntu: is your handheld constrained by network IP or anything ?
[06:35] <kaot> synd2: eh false alarm.  was wondering if packet loss was to blame but that would affect your whole network.  you wireless or no?
[06:35] <bpmw_> Hi folks! can someone help me with a server install?
[06:35] <synd2> kaot: Yeah, wireless
[06:35] <kaot> hm
[06:35] <Newbuntu> i dont think so .. the only issue I may have is that I have openssh installed and something called driopbear server/client
[06:35] <Newbuntu> dropbear
[06:35] <kaot> synd2: mtr your dns server ip, let it run for maybe a minute or two
[06:35] <IcemanV9> dibblego: yea, i have same problem with my keyboard as well. you need to get a tool like other said earlier. i believe there is a wiki on it.
[06:36] <kaot> synd2: you might notice in that last sample you sent all the retransmits and things
[06:36] <synd2> kaot: I thought that it might be the broadcom chipset that I had to enable on this Compaq, but I connected it via Ethernet and it had the same performane
[06:36] <kaot> oh
[06:36] <kaot> well hell.
[06:36] <Newbuntu> connect to host 192.168.1.173 port 22: Connection refused
[06:37] <Newbuntu> could it be a port thing?
[06:37] <soop> hows your network look
[06:37] <soop> where are you coming from and going to
[06:37] <Newbuntu> in which sense
[06:37] <Newbuntu> coming from a router
[06:37] <SeraVitae> just curious.. right now my windows box has quadruple lcds, i have to enable video cards in a certain order on bootup to avoid BSOD, does X allow enabling/disabling of extra video cards when its running?
[06:37] <colk> can you ping the linux box from the handheld
[06:37] <Newbuntu> whats the best command?
[06:37] <dibblego> I have lost two of the keyboard keys, the letter after 'l' and the letter after 't'; by fiddling with the keyboard shortcts - how do I get the back?
[06:38] <soop> newubuntu: could you redescribe the problem to me in a private message im getting too much scroll
[06:38] <ryantrip> hey i just booted ubuntu of the cd, and it seems to be done loading, but the disk is still spinning inside the comp and the systme is dragging. is this normal for the live cd?
[06:38] <Newbuntu> it seems to ping ok
[06:38] <eternalsword> does anyone know how to allow a program to overlap gnome-panels?
[06:39] <Gentoon> Sirrush: Sirrush I dont understand the config grub part of that page what was the grub howto page?
[06:40] <bpmw_> Hi again, Can someone help me with getting x up in a server install?
[06:40] <Sirrush> Gentoon, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/
[06:40] <Newbuntu> if i type ping <ip>  do i have to stop it or does it stop itself after awhile?
[06:40] <Sirrush> let me see if there is a simple version
[06:40] <Sirrush> ;)
[06:40] <nalioth> soop: you and Newbuntu may use #ubuntu-classroom it is nice and quiet and there are a few folks in there that may be of help
[06:41] <dibblego> which file holds keyboard shortcts?
[06:41] <Newbuntu> nalioth just 2 ubuntu users helping each other out.. whats your problem?
[06:41] <Newbuntu> thanks anyways soop
[06:42] <nalioth> Newbuntu: soop expressed an interest in helping you, in a channel with not so fast a text scroll
[06:42] <Sirrush> hey Gentoon  maybe this can help http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Restore_Grub
[06:42] <Newbuntu> I got his help already thanks
[06:42] <Crowe> Hey
[06:42] <Sirrush> you can hit your partitions right and install grub
[06:42] <Sirrush> and be done ;)
[06:43] <bpmw_> Hi folks, Anyone know how to get x to work after a server install?
[06:44] <Sirrush> did you configure X?
[06:44] <jron> anyone have ktorrent 2.0 beta 1 installed?
[06:44] <sharms> he needs to install the packages first
[06:44] <nalioth> bpmw_: sudo apt-get install <something that uses X>
[06:44] <deFrysk> jron, I had it installed
[06:44] <deFrysk> works fine
[06:44] <Sirrush> yeah install the packages hehe
[06:44] <bpmw_> Sirrush , never got the chance to.
[06:44] <jron> deFrysk: mind helping me out for a sec? =(
[06:44] <Sirrush> bpmw_,  you have to install it :)
[06:44] <sharms> sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[06:44] <deFrysk> jron, get the one from the forums
[06:45] <Sirrush> see what nalioth wrote
[06:45] <bthornton> I'm running an Athlon XP 2700+ processor; do I need to be getting the 686 or the K7 kernel image?
[06:45] <bpmw_> nalioth, apt-get install what?
[06:45] <jron> deFrysk: i see a link to a kubuntu .deb file... but when i attempt to select the install option i get an error
[06:45] <nalioth> bpmw_: something that uses X
[06:45] <bthornton> I suspect I'm sacrificing some optimizations by using the 386 kernel?
[06:46] <nalioth> bpmw_: if you like gnome, install "ubuntu-desktop" if you're a kde fan, install "kubuntu-desktop" etc
[06:46] <lepine> i seem to have lost sound, out of the blue. what should i check first
[06:46] <Crowe> What's the difference between 386 and 686?
[06:46] <deFrysk> jron, then you have the wrong one
[06:46] <deFrysk> jron, let me search
[06:46] <bpmw_> nalioth, I need a little more specifics
[06:46] <Flannel> bthornton: You just can't use any of the non386 assembly commands (and such, have to do some builtin instruction via a couple)
[06:46] <nalioth> bpmw_: do you like gnome?
[06:47] <bpmw_> yes
[06:47] <lepine> amarok gives no errors while trying to play sound.
[06:47] <jron> ktorrent_2.0beta1-1_i386.deb, that should be the correct one yes? deFrysk
[06:47] <deFrysk> jron, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188530&highlight=ktorrent
[06:47] <bthornton> Flannel: yeah.  so ideally, I should be using the 686 or the K7 kernel for my CPU?
[06:47] <SpAwN> man i cant get this sound to work.....i know the sound card is good......was working lastnight/earlier today. everything is unmuted except external amplifier.......my sound is up..... aplay -l shos output....my speakers are on/pluged in...i should have sound right now
[06:47] <jron> i'll check that out thank you deFrysk
[06:47] <Flannel> bthornton: K7 if your on AMD, yeah
[06:47] <bpmw_> nalioth, sudo apt-get install gnome ?
[06:48] <deFrysk> jron, that one install perfectly
[06:48] <nalioth> bpmw_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will do it
[06:48] <soop> kingspawn: what are you trying to play
[06:48] <soop> spawn: what are you trying to play
[06:48] <lepine> spawn welcome to the club.
[06:48] <SpAwN> soop, anything
[06:49] <bpmw_> nalioth, itried that one and it didn't work.
[06:49] <SpAwN> soop, i have no sound what soever
[06:49] <SpAwN> no littler error beeps...nothing....all is quiet
[06:49] <bthornton> Flannel: thanks!
[06:49] <GianLuigiBuffon> hi m8s
[06:50] <nalioth> bpmw_: bpmw_ try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[06:50] <soop> SpAwN: is it on the supported devices list, and have you had it working in ubuntu before or just the doze?
[06:50] <soop> also try killing your x-session
[06:50] <GianLuigiBuffon> Finally I'm going to leave Window$ for ever... but right now I have 10 GB partitions for it, but I want to erase it and add it to linux (maybe to swap for having more) how can I do it?
[06:50] <caturOK> how to building nocat
[06:50] <soop> i've noticed on my laptop and i've yet to have it on here sometimes the mixer seems to get locked up
[06:50] <SpAwN> soop, yes it  worked on mandriva and ubuntu
[06:51] <soop> i don't quite know why it happens
[06:51] <soop> it seems to be flash related
[06:51] <lepine> SpAwN: please, if you happen to get your sound working again, please msg me ( the solutions if im afk ) ... youre not alot to have lost sound out of the blue.
[06:51] <SpAwN> lepine, will do
[06:51] <jron> deFrysk: thank you so much for the link, worked like a charm, i really need to figure out how to set up builds like that for myself... the repos are so outdated =( only thing gentoo has over ubuntu.
[06:52] <jron> installed and working like a charm with oink :P
[06:52] <lepine> id like to hear aplay /dev/random at the moment :P
[06:52] <jron> would you like an account for your trouble if you dont have one already deFrysk?
[06:52] <deFrysk> jron, account ?
[06:52] <lepine> wtf
[06:52] <lepine> flash can play sound ...
[06:53] <TheNinja> hey
[06:53] <jron> for oink... private mp3 tracker... pretty much any album you could want... if that is your thing anyway
[06:53] <soop> lepine: you've seen shockwave/flash pages with sound right?
[06:53] <colk> welp ive had enough of vista so im going to install linux in the same partition
[06:53] <deFrysk> jron, no warez here
[06:53] <TheNinja> Can anyone help me out...when ever i exit Kopete its is supposed to go to the taskbarr but for some reason it just dissapears
[06:53] <TheNinja> any ideas
[06:54] <lepine> soop, yes, newgrounds.com if bugging me with sound ...
[06:54] <lepine> but i get no sound upon login ( welcome ), nor do i get any in amarok ...
[06:54] <BlueEagle> theninja: You might want to try #kubuntu with that.
[06:54] <jadacyrus> I accidently hit ctrl+alt+f9 is there a way to get back to my X session?
[06:54] <lepine> busy device maybe ?
[06:54] <deFrysk> ctrl alt f7
[06:54] <BlueEagle> jadacyrus: ALT+F7
[06:55] <jron> deFrysk: just an offer... i don't really consider mp3s to be warez, so long as you see a show or two every year :P way better way to support the artists... there is alot of freeware mp3s... for lack of a better word on the tracker :P
[06:55] <TheNinja> BlueEagle, just curious..why..im running ubuntu..its just a problem with the messanger
[06:55] <nikkun> Does anyone in here know how to get it so that an laptop running a AMD64bit processor to actually increase speed since mine is stuck at 800Mhz and wont speed up
[06:55] <deFrysk> jron, discussions about these subject are not done here ant off topic sorry
[06:55] <stopher2> Where would srm.conf be located?
[06:55] <soop> lepine: right click on your volume icon and choose i think it is volume control
[06:55] <BlueEagle> theninja: kopete is a QT app and the default IM client in Kubuntu. You might have more luck there.
[06:55] <SeraVitae> nikkun - it will show 800mhz if the system is not loaded
[06:55] <soop> check edit and preferences or something like that, sometimes the "front volume" channel ends up muted
[06:55] <jron> np, thank you for your help reguardless.
[06:55] <SeraVitae> run something that abuses the cpu and it will increase.
[06:55] <deFrysk> k ;)
[06:55] <jdrake> Does anyone have stability problems with firefox at various times? For example: closing windows that have a few tabs crash the browser, doing something with flash (like ea.com) freezes the browser, and similar things.
[06:56] <BlueEagle> theninja: Still it might be an incompatibillity between the gnome wm and the kde wm.
[06:56] <soop> BlueEagle: how's it compare to gaim?
[06:56] <SpAwN> man i lost everything i had tonight....had to reinstall 3 times.....now i cant get sound to work....today has been a shitty day :/
[06:56] <soop> jdrake: firefox != crash proof
[06:56] <TheNinja> BlueEagle, ill try reinstall
[06:56] <SpAwN> lost like 200 gigs of rare stuff....
[06:56] <nikkun> SeraVitae: i have been but it doesnt want to increase and i found this bug while my videos were getting fps below 20
[06:56] <BlueEagle> soop: it requires qt so on a gnome system it would be a memoryhog compared to gaim.
[06:57] <soop> SpAwN: when reinstalling you dont have to lose your home dir if its on a seperate partition ;)
[06:57] <jdrake> SpAwN: Invest in backup tapes
[06:57] <BlueEagle> soop: as for features... well you'll have to try it. :)
[06:57] <nikkun> oh hawt damn it spiked and now says 1800Mhz >.< wow
[06:57] <soop> blueeagle, im not a big feature kind of guy
[06:57] <BlueEagle> soop: Well then I guess you'll have to try it and see if you like it better than gaim.
[06:58] <SpAwN> soop, if the installer didnt f**k up my partyion table and erase and repartion the wrong partions.....i would be alright
[06:58] <soop> SpAwN: i dont think it was the installer fucking up i think it was a problem between the keyboard and the chair ;)
[06:59] <jdrake> I have a usb harddrive that mounts as 'usbdisk' rather than the name 'Bakus' that I gave it with tune2fs. Is there a way of changing this?
[06:59] <SpAwN> soop, haha but realy no....im pissed off............i absolutly did it correctly.......it actualy did it 3 times.......
[06:59] <nikkun> does anyone know why avi video files would be running at a rate where i can see it refresh when all i have changes since this moring (it worked fine then) was i started using fglrx? Is fglrx messing it up?
[07:01] <soop> fuck i wish i could remember my icq password
[07:01] <SpAwN> i wish this sound would work :(      i just wanna listen to some music
[07:01] <lepine> soop: it was amarok that somehow had it's output device changed to alsa instead of OSS
[07:02] <soop> score
[07:02] <soop> 421054
[07:02] <soop> anyone got a lower icq #?
[07:03] <sharms> soop: I got a lower ubuntuforums userid
[07:03] <vigilante> Anyone running google earth?  does it work well on linux?
[07:03] <pectissimo> soop:  Yup, I do.
[07:03] <Prohibited> hey guys I am trying to upload a backup to my phpbb forum but I get "connection timed out", it doesn't even look like it tries to load, just goes straight to the page......ideas?
[07:04] <soop> sharms: *shakes fist*
[07:05] <soop> pectissimo: the digits? ;)
[07:05] <soop> i hadn't used this in ages
[07:05] <soop> i was kinda curious
[07:05] <bikini> i had ubuntu installed, dual booted with windows 2000. today i installed windows xp on the ntfs partition.
[07:05] <soop> and lost your boot menu?
[07:05] <bikini> what would be the best way to recover the grub/mbr scenario?
[07:05] <bikini> yup.
[07:05] <soop> bikini: boot off disk and dpkg-reconfigure grub i think might work
[07:06] <pectissimo> soop:  It's in the 300,000's.  I've had it since 1996!
[07:06] <soop> nice ...
[07:06] <Flannel> bikini: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:06] <GStubbs43> How do I get permissions to write to /var/www ?
[07:06] <Flannel> GStubbs43: sudo
[07:06] <soop> that was still when the internet was kinda homey
[07:06] <sharms> GStubbs43: sudo
[07:07] <soop> pectissimo: this make sense to you? "talk rob@pdpc/supporter/active/rob-p"
[07:07] <GStubbs43> What would the full command be?
[07:07] <soop> GStubbs43: sudo whatever you're trying to do
[07:07] <sharms> GStubbs43: sudo commandthatyouaretryingtorunthatchangessomethinginvar/www
[07:07] <DShepherd> sharms: hehe
[07:08] <soop> GStubbs43: or add in a root account and give it a password like f4v0ur1tem0v13T1tl3
[07:08] <sharms> :)
[07:08] <kakalto> hmm. which is better with a two-screen layout: big screen on left, or on right of small screen?
[07:08] <soop> kakalto meaning?
[07:08] <soop> you have two different sized screens?
[07:08] <kakalto> soop: 17" monitor, 15" monitor
[07:08] <kakalto> yah
[07:08] <sharms> kakalto: depends on your gender, what side of the brain you most oft utilize
[07:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> Kakalto, I tend to look at my left one more than my right
[07:08] <stopher2> kakalto: big on right
[07:08] <soop> aaah which one do you use more
[07:08] <Flannel> kakalto: depends on your room setup etc.
[07:08] <vigilante> What are some good (new) 3D commercial games that run on linux?  (I currently have Quake 4, Doom 3, and UT2004 demos)
[07:08] <pectissimo> soop:  Should it?
[07:08] <soop> I have one dead center and the other one on an angle off the left
[07:08] <kakalto> Flannel: room setup doesn't matter
[07:08] <soop> in that config i'd say small one on the left
[07:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, NWN runs on linux.
[07:09] <soop> pectissimo: just curious if anyone remembered the "talk" command
[07:09] <revilot> whats NWN
[07:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> I guess that's not exactly new, but well worth playing.
[07:09] <soop> it was a way of chatting online pre-irc really
[07:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> Neverwinter Nights
[07:09] <revilot> ah
[07:09] <Fireclaw> =D
[07:09] <jdrake> Does this latest bunch of updates do something with oss compatibility? Cedega suddenly can't play sounds through it.
[07:09] <pectissimo> soop:  I've used it at the command line, yes.  Not in IRC if that's what you're asking.
[07:09] <soop> pectissimo: no not in irc
[07:09] <Fireclaw> any tricks to enable usb keyboard/mouse on ubuntu from livecd / desktop cd ""{}{P:LO{... questionmark :{
[07:09] <pectissimo> soop:  Oh, then yes.
[07:10] <Sir_Fawnpug> kakalto, what direction does your handwriting go?
[07:10] <sharms> soop: in my day we used wall.
[07:10] <Sir_Fawnpug> If it goes RTL I would do it big monitor on the right.
[07:10] <Sirrush> mm wallops
[07:10] <pectissimo> soop:  Great for situations where multiple users are logged into the same machine with terminals open!
[07:10] <sharms> Fireclaw: usb mouse and keyboards work out of the box
[07:10] <kakalto> Sir_Fawnpug: what is this 'handwriting' you speak of?
[07:10] <kakalto> =p
[07:10] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: NWN, that a mm roleplaying gaming eh
[07:11] <Fireclaw> sharms: mine didnt, i had to connect this old coffestained ps/2
[07:11] <sharms> Fireclaw: is it a popular model?
[07:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, well it's not exactly a mmog, but it does do multiplayer.
[07:11] <Fireclaw> and i have no mouse, which is annoying since its my first time on ubuntu :D
[07:11] <sharms> Fireclaw: I would say your usb is jacked up, not the devices
[07:11] <sharms> Fireclaw: if they both don't work
[07:11] <Fireclaw> yea probably
[07:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> kakalto, it's a deprecated form of making yourself look foolish. (I should know, my handwriting sucks)
[07:11] <jpnance> any tips for getting dpms to work automatically with ubuntu?
[07:11] <sharms> Fireclaw: file a bug at www.launchpad.net, include your dmesg.  file under installer
[07:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, what kind of games do you play anyhow?
[07:12] <stopher2> Where can I find srm.conf and access.conf in ubuntu server LAMP w/ apache 2.0??
[07:12] <kakalto> Sir_Fawnpug: OH, HANDWRITING. yeah. left to right. normal english, no?
[07:12] <Fireclaw> while the chipset is just nforce2 orsomething, the motherboard is a bit out of the ordinary, its one of those tiny ones
[07:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> kalkalto, ahh, then I would try  the big monitor on the left then.
[07:12] <sharms> stopher2: sudo updatedb && locate srm.conf
[07:12] <kakalto> can't believe I actually forgot one way to make myself look like a fool -_-
[07:12] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: mainly action/scifi, or games like Trackballs
[07:12] <stopher2> thanks sharms
[07:12] <kakalto> Sir_Fawnpug: yeah, sounds good
[07:12] <sharms> Fireclaw: please file a bug so we can make record of it
[07:12] <Fireclaw> whats the name of a browser xD
[07:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, have you played abuse? It's not commercial software but it's pretty good.
[07:12] <TheNinja> anyone have any cool apps for linux..
[07:13] <sharms> Fireclaw: if you can just do a 'dmesg > dmesg.log' and ftp it somewhere
[07:13] <soop> nyone know how in kde to setup hot keys ala gnome?
[07:13] <sharms> Fireclaw: then upload it once you are back to a gui
[07:13] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, what kind of apps are you looking for?
[07:13] <sunbo> Synaptic package manager is cool
[07:13] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: no, I will check it out though, I just mentioned commercial cause it seems most free games are behind the times graphics wise
[07:13] <harisund> I have a question to ask. How is linux-686 better for my system? In kernel.org repositories, I do not see either a 386 or a 686. All I see is a 2.6.15, but Synaptic says there is a 2.6.15-386 and a 2.6.15-686. What's the difference?
[07:13] <sharms> harisund: the 686 is what it was compiled for
[07:13] <Fireclaw> ah okay
[07:14] <soop> vigilante: google ubuntu & enemy territory
[07:14] <stopher> sharms: that didn't return any echo, just the prompt came back
[07:14] <soop> best multiplayer game of 2003
[07:14] <harisund> sharms oh .. so it won't be available in kernel.org?
[07:14] <deFrysk> 686 has support for 1gig + ram
[07:14] <TheNinja> Sir_Fawnpug, i dunno..anything that would come in handy or anything that makes someone say damn thats kick ass
[07:14] <sharms> harisund: source code is just source, uncompiled
[07:14] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: btw, when I installed Q3, Doom4, UT2004, thy said they would install a Programs Menu shortcut, though nothing, how do I get a shortcut?
[07:14] <SpAwN> brb
[07:14] <soop> TheNinja: www.scribus.net
[07:14] <soop> i love that shit
[07:14] <sharms> stopher: make sure the packages are installed
[07:14] <Fireclaw> though i must say, its kinda cool to be in 640|480 with just a keyboard and text terminals, very retro >D
[07:14] <soop> we now do all our corprate ads in that and just send it to pdf
[07:14] <harisund> sharms oh ... I understand ... so you mean the source was taken, compiled, making sure to enable support for the 686 part and then labelled as 2.6.15-686?
[07:14] <soop> few quirks in it still but that's just me as well
[07:15] <sharms> harisund: it is available at kernel.org, but is not yet compiled.  You can compile it for anything you want, 386, 586, 686, k7 etc
[07:15] <stopher> sharms: i think they are. not sure what package include srm.conf tho
[07:15] <colk> how long does a live cd ttake to boot on a Athlon 64 with 1 gig of ram
[07:15] <sharms> stopher: I think that is core apache
[07:15] <TheNinja> soop, cool
[07:15] <sharms> stopher: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[07:15] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, what impresses your friends?
[07:15] <okapi> hello  to all!
[07:15] <sharms> harisund: yup
[07:15] <sharms> colk: too darn long
[07:15] <yipe> how do I remove un-needed items from the boot sequence?
[07:16] <stopher> srm.conf is a core apache file? then it should be installed i think?
[07:16] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, what window manager are you using?
[07:16] <Madpilot> colk, shouldn't take that long
[07:16] <okapi> Please need help on the Dapper! Anyone available?
[07:16] <nevyn> OMG!!! What a buggy pile of crap is there any way to get the old installer under dapper?
[07:16] <yipe> like PCMCIA (i'm on a desktop) or RAID?
[07:16] <sharms> stopher: it isn't on my webserver either
[07:16] <TheNinja> Sir_Fawnpug, its not more my friends its just to have a good looking OS i alreayd have XGL/compiz installed
[07:16] <DShepherd> richiefrich: lata man
[07:16] <colk> it froze when it finshed the shell thing
[07:16] <sharms> stopher: but if it was it would be in /etc/apache2
[07:16] <stopher> sharms: wierd.
[07:16] <colk> on Loading kernel
[07:16] <yipe> !anyone
[07:16] <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?
[07:17] <stopher> okay thanks sharms
[07:17] <sharms> good lcuk
[07:17] <stopher> I guess i'll find something about a srm.conf somewhere
[07:17] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, well you could try enlightenment
[07:17] <Sir_Fawnpug> There's also a 3d desktop thing, I forget what its called.
[07:17] <Sir_Fawnpug> XGL or somethin like that.
[07:17] <TheNinja> Sir_Fawnpug, u got a link
[07:17] <okapi> how  to automount a cdrom with Dapper?
[07:17] <TheNinja> Sir_Fawnpug, i already have XGL and Compiz
[07:17] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, not offhand; but it made everybody at work gawk.
[07:17] <yipe> Sir_Brizz, 3ddesktop
[07:18] <yipe> oh, and that too
[07:18] <SpAwN> still no sound!!!!!! manim about ready to give up
[07:18] <soop> nevyn: download 5.10 iso and then do dist-upgrade
[07:18] <marcus> Can someone tell me where the gnome control center is please?
[07:18] <Sir_Brizz> rofl!
[07:18] <sharms> !tell spawn about sound
[07:18] <SeraVitae> is there something for checking harddrives with ubuntu? i think i might have bad sectors..
[07:18] <Sir_Brizz> not me!
[07:18] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, nothing makes a system complete without a c64 emulator.
[07:18] <Sir_Fawnpug> So install vice on there.
[07:18] <soop> SeraVitae: fsck but you can't do it on a mounted filesystem
[07:18] <SeraVitae> danm, i only have one drive on this system.
[07:18] <TheNinja> Anyone know how to make terminal a background
[07:18] <soop> boot off live cd
[07:18] <Madpilot> SeraVitae, LiveCDs are useful animals
[07:19] <SeraVitae> yeah, i might do that.
[07:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> SeraVitae, knoppix or the gentoo CD might be helpful
[07:19] <DBO> TheNinja, you want to background a terminal process?
[07:19] <soop> TheNinja: right click on bar and choose keep below others
[07:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> Or a bootdisk
[07:19] <SeraVitae> can't i use the dapper cd i just installed from?
[07:19] <SeraVitae> that was a live cd.
[07:19] <sharms> SeraVitae: yes you can
[07:19] <Madpilot> SeraVitae, yes
[07:19] <dondong> hi,guys
[07:19] <SeraVitae> woot.
[07:19] <marcus> Can someone tell me where the gnome control center is please?
[07:19] <sharms> marcus: system->preferences
[07:19] <nevyn> soop: that's a not solution
[07:19] <Madpilot> marcus, System->Preferences & System->Admin
[07:19] <marcus> ty sharms
[07:20] <marcus> and madpilot
[07:20] <nevyn> maybe it's just the 64bit version
[07:20] <dondong> ./join #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:20] <TheNinja> im talking about making terminal transparent and ffix it so it is the background
[07:20] <Sir_Fawnpug> nevyn, why is a livecd not a solution? It's quite a solution if you ask me.
[07:20] <sharms> nevyn: #1 snoop's suggestion was A solution
[07:21] <sharms> nevyn: #2 state your exact problem
[07:21] <DBO> TheNinja, are you running Xgl?
[07:21] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: Kwin (kde 3.5)
[07:21] <TheNinja> DBO, ya
[07:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, it's been a while since I've messed around with KDE but I know there's a menu editor there
[07:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> For the kicker
[07:22] <Sir_Fawnpug> (ie the start menu)
[07:22] <DBO> TheNinja, if you compile a CVS version of rxvt-unicode (a terminal emulator) you can use that in combination with xwinwrap to acheive the effect you want
[07:22] <TheNinja> DBO, ok..even tho im the uber linux noob
[07:23] <DBO> TheNinja, no worries, I will walk you through it
[07:23] <Ksilebo> Heyo, having an odd issue with a 686 SMP kernel, it won't boot.
[07:23] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheNinja, running a compile actually is quit easy when it works.
[07:23] <yipe> how do I remove un-needed items from the boot sequence? Like PCMCIA (which fails anyways) and RAID
[07:23] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: yeah, I just can't find any program icons for the games...
[07:23] <yipe> I think bluetooth was in there...
[07:23] <DBO> TheNinja, the first thing we need is xwinwrap, so do "sudo apt-get install xwinwrap"
[07:23] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, well if you want an icon I'd find a nice 64x64 png and use that.
[07:24] <Ksilebo> "Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:11"
[07:24] <DBO> yipe, sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
[07:24] <TheNinja> DBO, ok
[07:24] <DBO> yipe, then sudo sysv-rc-conf, and uncheck whatever you dont use
[07:24] <vigilante> Sir_Fawnpug: btw, have you played doom3 or quake4?  they both have sound problems in Linux, most people are using an oss switch to launch it, since the problem is with Alsa, you know about this?
[07:24] <DBO> TheNinja, now we need to get the latest source for rxvt-unicode
[07:24] <yipe> thanks DBO:)
[07:25] <Sir_Fawnpug> vigilante, to be quite honest I've never been into those kinds of games; I stay away from newer games like the plague.
[07:25] <TheNinja> DBO, ok..
[07:25] <DBO> TheNinja, getting link hold
[07:25] <SeraVitae> new good games are hard to find
[07:25] <DBO> TheNinja, ok, sudo apt-get install cvs
[07:25] <TheNinja> DBO, ok dont feel rushed i got all the time i need
[07:25] <Sir_Fawnpug> SeraVitae, no kidding. It's a good thing projects like exult and dosbox exist.
[07:25] <SeraVitae> heh.
[07:26] <TheNinja> DBO, ok got that
[07:26] <DBO> TheNinja, "cd" then "mkdir building" then "cd building"
[07:26] <Sir_Fawnpug> Nothing quite beats a good game of commander keen.
[07:26] <stopher> sharms: srm.conf is a blank file for specialized apps :) got it all figured out, thanks for your help :)
[07:26] <SeraVitae> with fsck, i just realised, that is for checking filesystem, not low-level drive. i need something like 'scandisk' for windows. will fsck do that or?
[07:27] <DBO> TheNinja, now run "cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.schmorp.de:636/schmorpforge co rxvt-unicode"
[07:27] <Newbuntu> whats a good command to copy a folder ? Im in shh trying to copy some folders from my remote to my PC
[07:27] <Sir_Fawnpug> SeraVitae, you want to check for bad sectors then, yeah?
[07:27] <SeraVitae> yeah
[07:27] <SeraVitae> i wanna check the whole drive as best i can.
[07:27] <TheNinja> DBO, ok got that
[07:27] <yipe> mdadm-raid means.... raid, right?
[07:27] <SpAwN> omg still no sound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ive tried like 10 how tos...nothing....not a single peep of sound
[07:28] <DBO> TheNinja, "cd rxvt-unicode"
[07:28] <Sir_Fawnpug> SeraVitae, I'm not totally sure about fsck but the manpage might be able to enlighten you on that.
[07:28] <SpAwN> i should by all means have sound right now
[07:28] <yipe> your speakers work, are turned on, plugged in, and the volume is turned up (everywhere)?
[07:28] <SeraVitae> Sir_Fawnpug - yep, fsck checks filesystems only
[07:28] <TheNinja> DBO, mmkay
[07:28] <Lynoure> SpAwN: and you have verified the sound card and speakers actually physically work?
[07:28] <SeraVitae> not drives.
[07:28] <SpAwN> yipe, yes yes and yes
[07:28] <DBO> TheNinja, now do "sudo apt-get build-dep rxvt-unicode"
[07:28] <brentendo21> guys how can i re-install the basic window manager? i stuffed up my xgl instal
[07:28] <Sir_Fawnpug> SeraVitae, hold on, I'll apropos and see what I can find
[07:29] <Ksilebo> So, anyone know how I can get this to boot?
[07:29] <Sir_Fawnpug> brentendo21, do you have a window manager going?
[07:29] <SpAwN> Lynoure, yes yes yes
[07:29] <Lynoure> SpAwN: And I guess you have checked that things are not muted?
[07:29] <brentendo21> Sir_Fawnpug, I got no window manager
[07:29] <SpAwN> Lynoure, yes only thing muted is external amplifier
[07:29] <SpAwN> as it caused me to have no sound last time i installed
[07:30] <yipe> try de-muting that
[07:30] <yipe> just for giggles
[07:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> brentendo21, you could use apt-get install fluxbox (I think that's it), get fluxbox going, open up a terminal and start synaptic
[07:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> Then reinstall from there
[07:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> I'm not sure on all the debian stuff, I'm used to portage (sorry)
[07:30] <TheNinja> DBO, mmmmkay
[07:30] <SpAwN> yipe, negadive....still no sound

[07:49] <TheNinja> DBO,
[07:49] <GStubbs43> olrrai_x, I personally didn't like DSL, but you should try it, also try Ubuntu Live CD.
[07:49] <TheNinja> DBO, ya

[07:56] <jpnance> any tips for getting dpms to work automatically with ubuntu?
[07:57] <DBO> jpnance, the best would be to have a dpms compatible monitor
[07:57] <jpnance> yes, i agree
[07:57] <jpnance> done!
[07:57] <stopher> Okay, ill keep asking questions till i snag someones interest... in ubuntu LAMP, what is a 'valid' virtual server name?
[07:58] <DBO> jpnance, is it in your xorg.conf?
[07:58] <stopher> localhost, kwikstop, and .com aren't so it says
[07:58] <jpnance> yeah, it appears to be
[07:58] <jpnance> do i need to have a screensaver set up, even though i've no intention of allowing the screen to stay on?
[07:59] <DBO> jpnance, set your screensaver to blank screen
[07:59] <ubuntu_> I followed the directions on how to get nvidia acceleration working and it still says it's not doing direct rendering
[07:59] <CoolRock> anyone can help me with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=213931 ?
[08:00] <DBO> XaXXon, lemme see your /var/log/Xorg.0.log in pastebin please
[08:00] <XaXXon> DBO, I'm running off a live-cd, if that matters...
[08:00] <DBO> CoolRock, you need to restore your grub
[08:00] <DBO> !grub > CoolRock
[08:01] <DBO> XaXXon, yeah it does...
[08:01] <Lynoure> CoolRock: I've found, generally, that it helps yo give people some idea what your question is about, even if you want them to look at a url. Many people will not look at it unless they know it is something they could possibly help with
[08:01] <CoolRock> oic
[08:01] <CoolRock> mine is more on trouble-shooting
[08:01] <CoolRock> so i can't really paste all here
[08:01] <colk> !pastebin
[08:01] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[08:02] <CoolRock> thanks colk. it's also pasting on a 'website' isn'tit?
[08:02] <colk> guess that might be why the live cd isnt working
[08:02] <CoolRock> :P
[08:02] <Lynoure> CoolRock: Even mentioning the general topic helps.
[08:02] <colk> its got a big scratch in it
[08:02] <CoolRock> alright Lynoure
[08:02] <CoolRock> thanks alot
[08:02] <CoolRock> i can't make a GRUB floppy
[08:04] <DBO> CoolRock, you can use the Ubuntu Live CD
[08:04] <CoolRock> oh
[08:04] <CoolRock> not the server version?
[08:04] <colk> figurered out why my live cd didnt load
[08:05] <colk> it had a giant scratch in it
[08:05] <colk> the desktop one
[08:05] <colk> or the live cd
[08:05] <DBO> colk, thats a good reason
[08:05] <CoolRock> i ordered live cds from Ubuntu
[08:05] <CoolRock> i wonder if they'll ship it over
[08:05] <CoolRock> to singapore
[08:06] <DBO> there are GRUB ISO's on the internet as well for this kind of issue CoolRock
[08:06] <RobNyc> how do I make my numlock key always on ?
[08:06] <Cntryboy> if make distclean doesn't work, how do you force it to work
[08:07] <colk> Cntryboy, youll have to give us more info
[08:07] <Cntryboy> not for me
[08:07] <colk> What are you trying to make distclean
[08:07] <Cntryboy> so im not sure the error
[08:07] <Cntryboy> he's trying to clean up digikam install
[08:07] <ubuntu_> DBO: I restarted X and now when I do the glxinfo|grep rendering, I get a bunch of Xlib:   extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". with a single "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual" thrown in in the middle..
[08:07] <colk> well unfortunly make distclean can be done on over 16692938298 packages
[08:07] <xaxxon> I'm putting that log in pastebin now
[08:08] <DBO> xaxxon, the live CD does not contain the proprietary nvidia driver...
[08:08] <Cntryboy> colk: error is this I think make: *** No rule to make target `distclean'.  Stop.
[08:08] <xaxxon> DBO, the directions say to install nvidia-glx..err.. something
[08:08] <xaxxon> and I did that
[08:09] <colk> did you follow the rest of the instructions
[08:09] <DBO> xaxxon, and linux-restricted-modueles... but why would you do that in a LiveCD, I mean there are a boatload of additional complexities with that, not the least of which is flat out running out of RAM
[08:09] <Cntryboy> colk: did you see that error
[08:09] <xaxxon> oh
[08:09] <xaxxon> DBO: so I shouldn't try and get video accel going on a live CD boot?
[08:09] <colk> Cntryboy, id suggest finding the configure file
[08:09] <colk> and run it
[08:10] <Cntryboy> example?
[08:10] <DBO> xaxxon, thats pretty much what I am saying yeah
[08:10] <colk> it would be called configure
[08:10] <xaxxon> DBO: is it relatively easy from a regular install?
[08:10] <Cntryboy> configure file for the digikam?
[08:11] <DBO> xaxxon, yes
[08:11] <colk> yes
[08:11] <colk> try looking for a INSTALL file
[08:11] <Cntryboy> it's compiled
[08:11] <Cntryboy> not binary
[08:11] <interfear> how do i install bitchx with ubuntu?
[08:12] <colk> still you need a INSTALL file
[08:12] <DBO> sudo apt-get install bitchx
[08:12] <colk> which is a text document telling you what you need to install it
[08:12] <Cntryboy> well his compiling went wrong
[08:12] <Cntryboy> thats why he's wanting to clean it up
[08:12] <colk> rm *.o
[08:13] <colk> that will do the same thing as make clean
[08:13] <interfear> DBO:  says cant find package bitchx
[08:13] <piratepenguin> how do I get the FPS from glxgears?
[08:13] <DBO> interfear, you need to enable universe repos
[08:13] <DBO> !repos > interfear
[08:13] <colk> unfortunly without knowlege of the compile error or what pacakge it is id suggest reading the documents
[08:14] <heatxsink> what package do I need to install for those cool webfonts to work in Firefox?
[08:14] <Cntryboy> so rm *.o is same as make distclean right
[08:15] <Cntryboy> colt: and do you have to be in a certain dir to do it from
[08:15] <Cntryboy> rm: cannot remove `*.o': No such file or directory
[08:15] <daxxar> man: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct
[08:15] <daxxar> Should I just set them in /etc/environment?
[08:16] <Kickersny> if I installed php5 from apt-get install php5-dev, is it possible to re-run the configuration script?
[08:16] <Cntryboy> i dont think colt knew what he was talking about
[08:17] <DBO> Kickersny, sudo dpkg-reconfigure package
[08:17] <Kickersny> DBO, I want to reconfigure it with my own config string
[08:17] <DBO> you said re-run the configuration script, thats what I told you how to do =P
[08:18] <Kickersny> yeah, sorry
[08:19] <Kickersny> because php5-gd uses a non-standard version of gd.so and lacks some critical functions
[08:19] <Kickersny> so I want to reconfigure php5 --with-GD (so it points to the correct GD)
[08:19] <interfear> I have an LCD monitor that can do 1280x1024, however ubuntu says my max res is 1024x768, I also have a 6600gt pcie, (i have to install in safe graphic mode in order for it to work)
[08:20] <interfear> anyone know what to do?
[08:20] <Seveas> Kickersny, then you neet apt-get source php5 and edit debian/rules inside that package
[08:20] <DBO> you need to get the source, if you ahve source repos enabled you can get it with apt, otherwise you can get it from Launchpad Kickersny
[08:20] <Kickersny> Seveas, thanks
[08:20] <Kickersny> DBO, server install; no GUI
[08:20] <DBO> wget...
[08:20] <Lobster> interfear, dpkg xserver-xorg-reconfigure ore something like that
[08:21] <Kickersny> DBO, I spoke faster than I could Google
[08:21] <Kickersny> sorry
[08:21] <Kickersny> I'll look into it; thanks
[08:21] <afflux> morgen....
[08:21] <DBO> interfear, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:21] <Lobster> ok...
[08:22] <DBO> you were close =P
[08:23] <interfear> should i use kernel framebuffer?
[08:23] <DBO> probably be safer not to
[08:25] <hunt0r> hi all, are there packages available with a newer kernel then in 6.06?

[08:30] <FusE[Laptop] > Ugh, noone can help me?
[08:30] <snoops> this is a fresh install FusE[Laptop] ?
[08:30] <FusE[Laptop] > yes
[08:30] <DBO> does it give you the grub stage 1.5...... message or whatever that is FusE[Laptop] ?
[08:31] <FusE[Laptop] > no
[08:31] <FusE[Laptop] > Just "GRUB _"
[08:31] <FusE[Laptop] > but the underscore blinks
[08:31] <metatag> hello all..
[08:31] <SurfnKid> yo

[08:39] <eternalsword> anyone know how to blacklist the Realtek rtl818x modules?
[08:39] <FusE[Laptop] > DBO
[08:39] <FusE[Laptop] > it says the same thing
[08:39] <Kickersny> gol damn why doesn't the php5-gd package have imagerotate()
[08:39] <Kickersny> argh
[08:40] <FusE[Laptop] > I reinstalled it by booting to live cd and typng sudo root, then root (hd0, 0) then setup (hd1)
[08:40] <SurfnKid> eternalsword, /etc/modules.d/blacklist
[08:40] <firefly2442> anyone used Grip the audio ripping program before?
[08:40] <SurfnKid> eternalsword, open that file and add blacklist <modulename>  to the bottom
[08:40] <SurfnKid> !blacklist
[08:40] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list
[08:40] <eternalsword> tried that, it still loaded
[08:40] <kaot> hey anyone know offhand how to add a second IP address to an interface?  having a brainfart here.

[08:41] <kaot> i thought that's what it was...
[08:41] <FusE[Laptop] > Someone please help me, I installed grub but now I get this when I boot "GRUB _" but the underscore is blinking and I cant type anything
[08:41] <firefly2442> kaot: I think it's something like sudo ifconfig eth0 -a ipaddress
[08:42] <eternalsword> i had rtl818x, but the module from dmesg is rtl8187, does the blacklist name need to be rtl8187?
[08:42] <SurfnKid> eternalsword, add both
[08:43] <SurfnKid> eternalsword, does it show up in lsmod?
[08:43] <r3nd3r> whats the command to show the OS name and version ?

[08:44] <r3nd3r> how can i get it to show the system memory ?
[08:44] <kaot> bummer, that.
[08:44] <FusE[Laptop] > TiG4

[08:51] <TiG4> This is so frustrating, everywhere on the net ways just uncomment those lines out, but its not working
[08:51] <firefly2442> how come when I put a CD in, it appears mounted on the desktop but not mounted under "mount -l" in commandline?
[08:51] <durga> just tried 6.06 for the first time...looks really promising but did not recognise my legacy soundblaster AWE AT sound card...any ideas ?
[08:52] <stopher> what lines TiG4?
[08:52] <Quarupted> Who wrote Easy Ubuntu?

[08:53] <TiG4> stopher, 'AddType application/x-httpd-php .php' & AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
[08:53] <selinium_> firefly2442: it should be under /dev/hdd on /media/blah
[08:54] <stopher> hmm
[08:54] <stopher> push F6 and search for other lines that may contain those credentials
[08:55] <TiG4> stopher, Any ideas?
[08:55] <stopher> yea
[08:55] <stopher> push F6 and search for other lines that may contain those credentials
[08:55] <TiG4> mmk
[08:56] <SurfnKid>  eternalsword excellent, glad it worked

[08:56] <TiG4> stopher, Heh, you working on getting apache setup as well
[08:57] <eternalsword> i'm hoping my wireless won't stop working now.  I believe the rtl interferes with ndiswrapper.  I'll leave it on overnight and see what happens.
[08:58] <stopher> yups TiG4
[08:58] <stopher> for the past 6 hours
[08:58] <stopher> lol
[08:58] <eternalsword> if it works, it'll help alot of people on the forums having the same problem
[08:58] <selinium_> firefly2442: I dont understand! :) it is not like that on my machine!
[08:59] <selinium_> TiG4:  stopher: What is the problem?
[09:00] <TiG4> selinium_, Whenever I try to run a php file, it attempts to download instead of running it. (Apache2, PHP5)
[09:00] <stopher> selinium_: I am installing frontpage extensions on an apache server, not working too well
[09:00] <FusE[Laptop] > #apache
[09:00] <igcek> is it absolutely necessary to have computer that supports ACPI for ubuntu to work on it
[09:01] <firefly2442> selinium_: ahha, I found that it's /dev/hdc from the Admin -> Disks utility :)
[09:01] <TiG4> FusE[Laptop] , We are using Ubuntu so its relative
[09:01] <TiG4> selinium_, Any ideas?
[09:02] <sktx> so i've been struggling with getting connected to dalnet for a while, only to find that my isps provider doesn't peer to dalnet... can anyone think of a creative way to get around this?
[09:02] <Kickersny> TiG4, I had that problem yesterday
[09:02] <TiG4> Kickersny, How'd ya fix it?
[09:02] <selinium_> TiG4: So have you followed the LAMP tutorial? Have you restarted the server?
[09:02] <Kickersny> TiG4, check /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf
[09:03] <Kickersny> TiG4, what version of PHP?
[09:03] <stopher> sktx: get a new isp
[09:03] <stopher> rofl
[09:03] <TiG4> Kickersny, 5
[09:03] <TiG4> Kickersny, It's blank
[09:03] <selinium_> TiG4: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  <---- did you follow this?
[09:03] <carlb> pretty slick (just installed ubuntu)!
[09:03] <Kickersny> ls /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
[09:03] <firefly2442> is cdparanoia good for ripping cds that are scratched? similar to exact audio copy I assume? (EAC)
[09:03] <Kickersny> TiG4, ^^
[09:04] <sktx> stopher: i wish.. i signed a year contract and now i'm screwed.. if i bail, its a $150 early termination fee
[09:04] <Kickersny> sktx, call and bitch
[09:04] <TiG4> Kickersny, cgi.load  userdir.conf  userdir.load
[09:05] <stopher> ouch
[09:05] <carlb> how do I add resolution options to the GUI list in the admin window?
[09:05] <stopher> that hurst sktx
[09:05] <Desh> How do I check if my Ubuntu is set up for 2 monitors?
[09:05] <Kickersny> TiG4, run "sudo a2enmod php5"
[09:05] <Kickersny> TiG4, then restart apache2
[09:05] <sktx> Kickersny: i spent like an hour and a half a day trying to talk to their "tech support" .. they're all script reading phone jockeys who know less about the internet than your average aoler
[09:05] <Kickersny> Desh, check the other monitor? :P
[09:05] <TiG4> Kickersny, I love you.
[09:05] <Kickersny> TiG4, don't get all mushy on me now :)
[09:05] <TiG4> Kickersny, Thanks alot bud.
[09:05] <sktx> stopher: tell me about it.. they've really got me by the short and curlies
[09:06] <Kickersny> no problem, TiG4
[09:06] <TiG4> Kickersny, So it just wasnt enabled?
[09:06] <Kickersny> right
[09:06] <TiG4> Kickersny, Cool.
[09:06] <col-panic> btw, just tested cedega 5.1 on breezy
[09:06] <col-panic> it's a go :)
[09:06] <sktx> i figure i could get a shell somewhere else, right? or a BNC?
[09:06] <Desh> Kickersny: i don't have 2, only one on the laptop, but I do have the option to hook a 2nd one up. however, there is a second monitor with the status <unknown> in the Display settings, and I think this may be bothering my video and not letting my video driver work properly with 3d rendering.
[09:07] <Kickersny> TiG4, for a list of modules you can enabled, run "ls /etc/apache2/mods-available/"
[09:07] <col-panic> the 'official' one, not the cvs.
[09:07] <col-panic> so any of you gamers out there, its worth the trouble.
[09:07] <TiG4> Kickersny, Thanks.
[09:07] <col-panic> peace :)
[09:07] <TiG4> so to allow cgi i would do
[09:07] <tk3> is there anyway to control which packaged the 6.06 LTS installer installs before... it installs them? can't see anything obivous.
[09:07] <TiG4> sudo a2enmod ci
[09:08] <selinium_> Kickersny: I normally edit the ini files to enable apache2 modules. Can a2enmod be used for all modules?
[09:08] <Kickersny> selinium_, any mod in mods-available
[09:08] <eternalsword> I borked my mysql database, how do I remove the database and start over?
[09:08] <jron> any reason why mplayer is not in the reposotory? in gentoo i could just emerge mplayer and then mplayer <fiilename> to play divix =(
[09:08] <Kickersny> TiG4, yes, a2emod cgi
[09:09] <Kickersny> a2enmod*
[09:09] <jron> i see kmplayer libs... but not mplayer....
[09:09] <Kickersny> eternalsword, mysql.com
[09:09] <firefly2442> eternalsword: might want to try phpmyadmin :)
[09:09] <Desh> jron, it should be, make sure you enable all the repositories.
[09:09] <Desh> !repositories
[09:09] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[09:09] <lightstar> jron, add multiverse repo
[09:09] <carlb> I am not getting full resolution options in the System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution (I should have a 1680x1050 in there but it does not show up... tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf without success)
[09:10] <jron> i uncomented all the repos.. but ill check again
[09:10] <Desh> carlb, what type of card?
[09:10] <Desh> graphics card.
[09:10] <carlb> ATI Radeon X1600
[09:10] <carlb> (Macbook Pro)
[09:11] <Desh> Carlb, welcome to the terrible world of having an ATI on Linux.
[09:11] <eternalsword> jron: try using Automatix http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=177646&highlight=Automatix
[09:11] <Desh> CArlb: I have been trying to get 3d on my laptop since I first started running Linux a few months back.
[09:12] <carlb> that is motivating ;-)
[09:12] <Desh> CArlb: Hopefully you are luckier, I dunno why but my laptop won't use the correct driver.
[09:12] <carlb> any tips Desh?
[09:13] <Desh> Carlb, however, try editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to yse the "ati" driver in the device section.
[09:13] <Desh> Or, run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:13] <Desh> And select all your settings there and the resolutions you wants, etc.
[09:13] <eternalsword> carlb, what video card do you have?
[09:13] <Desh> X1600
[09:14] <eternalsword> try going to http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=204910

[09:17] <bbrazil> xaxxon: nvidia docs aren't too bad - dunno if there's something ubuntu specific

[09:20] <heatxsink> flashplugin
[09:20] <vook> let me rephrase.  How do I go about forcing a debian/breezy style (text/color) install rather than a X install
[09:20] <citizen> ok
[09:20] <citizen> you should try to use automatix
[09:20] <Hemebond> If my graphics card is PCIX, should I still put Option "NvAGP" "1" into my xorg.conf?

[09:34] <hydroksyde> citizen, is swiftfox not distributed as binaries???
[09:34] <citizen> haha, it is
[09:34] <citizen> whoops
[09:34] <hydroksyde> it looks like they have build an optimized version for each arch (a dubious way of increasing speed, but there are other things thay may have done)
[09:35] <citizen> gstubbs43
[09:35] <citizen> there should be a file called swiftfox-bin

[09:35] <citizen> well, swiftfox is already complied, so you should try with somethin else
[09:35] <GStubbs43> nothing happens
[09:35] <hydroksyde> GStubbs43, do you see a file called swiftfox?
[09:36] <GStubbs43> Nevermind it is loading

[09:36] <citizen> ah
[09:36] <citizen> i'm dumb
[09:36] <GStubbs43> I double-clicked swiftfox-bin and nothing happened
[09:36] <hydroksyde> firefox calls firefox-bin
[09:36] <GStubbs43> I thought it was loading but it didn't
[09:36] <hydroksyde> firefox-bin wont work on it's own

[09:37] <GStubbs43> Okay I got it.
[09:37] <citizen> GStubbs43
[09:37] <FusE[Laptop] > I just reinstalled ubuntu and installed grub to the MBR, and now when I boot, it freezes on "GRUB _". I really could use help!!!
[09:37] <hydroksyde> porkpie, there might be a webmin module?
[09:37] <GStubbs43> yea...
[09:37] <GStubbs43> ?
[09:38] <citizen> the standard for installing programs from the source is to extract it from the tar file, then to use "cd" to move to that directory
[09:38] <citizen> then, run "sudo ./configure"
[09:38] <citizen> then "make", then "make install"
[09:38] <spades> might wanna look into checkinstall
[09:38] <GStubbs43> What program can I install to try it out?
[09:38] <FusE[Laptop] > *ugh*, can anyone help me?
[09:39] <interfear> how can i add my windows partition to GRUB? it didnt automatically add itself, but it is still there
[09:39] <FusE[Laptop] > I think I have the same problem interfear
[09:39] <stopher> use clear /mbr
[09:39] <FusE[Laptop] > but when my Grub boots, it just idles like this : "GRUB _" but the underscore blinks
[09:39] <citizen> gstubbs43, frostwire
[09:39] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , sounds like grub is broken
[09:40] <tripppy> is there/whats the best HOWTO for installing dapper cd from canoical?
[09:40] <citizen> well, do you have java installed?
[09:40] <FusE[Laptop] > Its not
[09:40] <FusE[Laptop] > I just installed it
[09:40] <hydroksyde> maybe it's trying to look for a config file on a partition that isn't there
[09:40] <GStubbs43> That came with an ubuntu version, I already have it.
[09:40] <GStubbs43> I didn't need the tar file
[09:40] <FusE[Laptop] > I installed it on the master boot record
[09:40] <revilot> LOL
[09:40] <mvhenten> Hi, I'm looking for an 'ical' type of application ( I mean, something as nice, and good, not like mozilla's)
[09:41] <citizen> gstubbs43, skype
[09:41] <porkpie> guy's how do I allow all internal connection with ubuntu server ....I am new to this distro and can't connect or ping the box
[09:41] <Dr_Sato> mvhenten: buy a mac :) No I'm not trying 2 be funny
[09:41] <citizen> http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static
[09:41] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde, why is it doing that after i installed it on the MBR
[09:42] <hydroksyde> erm
[09:42] <GStubbs43> I'll try skype
[09:42] <hydroksyde> not sure
[09:42] <hydroksyde> grub does need a config file
[09:42] <hydroksyde> on a partition
[09:42] <TiG4> *-- What's the best (prettiest) Web Stats Script? --*
[09:42] <mvhenten> Dr_Sato: I'm getting envious about those mac users. I haven't found a calendar application I want to use yet, that's why I'm asking
[09:42] <FusE[Laptop] > how can I see if its missng?
[09:42] <hydroksyde> that's why I think it's stupid, and hate it, and advocate lilo
[09:42] <hydroksyde> boot with a live CD
[09:42] <FusE[Laptop] > k sec
[09:42] <Glimerrati> is there any software for free sms in ubuntu...?
[09:43] <mvhenten> I need something that I can scribble up the hours I'm working and plan my lunch brakes, and on the side, organise stuff.
[09:43] <citizen> GStubbs43, after you do it once or twice, you wwill be a pro, as long as you can understand SOME of what the terminal is spitting out at you during ./configure
[09:43] <TiG4> Glimerrati, Check out Google Labs
[09:43] <TiG4> *-- What's the best (prettiest) Web Stats Script? --*
[09:43] <FusE[Laptop] > now what hydroksyde
[09:43] <hydroksyde> erm
[09:43] <hydroksyde> look in /boot/grub
[09:43] <GStubbs43> Okay, I am really good with Windows but I am really trying to learn Linux
[09:43] <FusE[Laptop] > sec
[09:44] <citizen> Gstubbs, do you want to learn UNIX?
[09:44] <Dr_Sato> mvhenten: u could try the gDesklets? (sudo apt-get install gDesklets
[09:44] <hawkaloogie> TiG4, don't repeat. and that special text isn't necessary, and it's awstats imho
[09:44] <citizen> Gstubbs43, http://freeengineer.org/learnUNIXin10minutes.html
[09:44] <Dr_Sato> mvhenten: there are calendar like desklets
[09:44] <TiG4> awstats is a bit ugly though
[09:44] <Dr_Sato> and you can scribble away
[09:45] <interfear> whats the apt-get command to install an mp3 decoder?
[09:45] <interfear> apt-get install libmp3?
[09:45] <hawkaloogie> TiG4,  or webalizer, those're the only two i've used
[09:45] <jron> can anyone please tell me where the hell mplayer is for ubuntu?
[09:45] <hydroksyde> interfear, in 6.06?
[09:45] <Desh> the fglrx installer says I am running an i686 arch, but I installed the 386 version of ubuntu and have been using that kernel and those restricted modules, is that ok?
[09:45] <interfear> hydroksyde: yes 6.06
[09:45] <hawkaloogie> !restrictedformats > interfear
[09:46] <citizen> Desh, please use the pastebin for large files
[09:46] <Desh> citizen, sorry, it was just a long question.
[09:46] <hydroksyde> interfear, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[09:46] <jron> i have all the repos uncommented in my sources.list and apt-get install mplayer-386 still does jack.
[09:46] <mvhenten> I'll have a look ... haven't seen any 'useful' desklets yet
[09:46] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , sorry, I'm not sure how to install grub
[09:46] <citizen> hydro, haven't the ugly ones been updated?
[09:47] <barattolo> hi guys
[09:47] <mvhenten> something like 'fancontrol' but graphical
[09:47] <citizen> i think ugly is deprecated
[09:47] <barattolo> anyone that can help me with user administration?
[09:47] <FusE[Laptop] > hydros\ksyde
[09:47] <FusE[Laptop] > hydrosksyde, /grub/ doesn't exist in /boot/
[09:47] <Dr_Sato> mvhenten: I'll look into it... if I find something i'll give a hauwler
[09:47] <Desh> How can I install an older version of fglrx?
[09:47] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , that could be a problem
[09:47] <GStubbs43> STerminal said command not found when I trien ./configure
[09:48] <Desh> I try but it says I canot because my Xorg is 7.0
[09:48] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , try sudo apt-get install grub
[09:48] <FusE[Laptop] > k
[09:49] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroskyde, it says 0 upgraded 0 newly installed, 0 to remove, 0 not upgradedm grub is already the newest version
[09:49] <interfear> holy crap ubuntu 6.06 is awesome
[09:49] <interfear> everything just works
[09:49] <barattolo> lol
[09:49] <interfear> my printer, my wireless omg
[09:49] <roshan_s> jron: You need to do "sudo apt-get install mplayer"
[09:49] <interfear> this is amazing
[09:49] <sysdoc> Everything?
[09:49] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , try sudo dpkg --configure grub
[09:49] <interfear> well..
[09:49] <interfear> except my monitor.. had to edit my xorg.conf
[09:49] <garryF> barattolo, Ask the question. Nobody will know if hwe can help you till you ask your specific question.
[09:50] <hydroksyde> I can't see if that works on my box though, it's updating, so apt is locked
[09:50] <garryF> Grats interfear
[09:50] <barattolo> uh.. you're right sorry
[09:50] <interfear> sweet now i dont need to use windows anymore
[09:50] <garryF> np
[09:50] <citizen> GStubbs43, sorry, skype is weird, as well
[09:50] <FusE[Laptop] > error proccessing grub, package grub is already installed and configured
[09:50] <interfear> my pc seems so fast ..
[09:50] <hydroksyde> erm
[09:50] <citizen> I will find you an easy, small package so you can learn, beb
[09:50] <interfear> is ubuntu amd64 taking advantage of dual core out of the box?
[09:50] <barattolo> so.. I had to create a user using --forc-badname.. the problem is that it was created with no privileges, according to users-admin app
[09:50] <roshan_s> interfear: Yes
[09:50] <interfear> nice
[09:50] <Desh> How can I move a window that's too big for my screen?
[09:51] <GStubbs43> Yeah, I can just click on Skype and run it.
[09:51] <interfear> ok im gonna get rid of my windows partition now.. and reinstall
[09:51] <mbn> I'm trying to add 1152x864 resolution to X. i edited xorg.conf and added the resolution. but the option is not showed in Display Settings ( i also restarted X )
[09:51] <GStubbs43> Try install 915resolution
[09:51] <barattolo> of course I need full privileges for that user.. the problem is that users-admin wont let me change the privs because of the badname
[09:51] <GStubbs43> tat's how I got 1280x800
[09:51] <enyc> mbn: hrrmm wonder igf the x-server thinks the monitor is not capable of that made at a sano frequency
[09:51] <hivemind> Hey guys, I'm looking at this certain laptop, and I was wondering if Ubuntu supported it so I checked the list in the wiki. My laptop wasn't there, but the version below it and the one above it were listed as compatible. Is it a safe bet my "middle" version is too?
[09:51] <garryF> Under user-admin choose new user. Choose properties and check of the permission.
[09:51] <mbn> GStubbs43 < what is it ?
[09:52] <brynk> since a few days i log out when i run the synaptic update or press the quit button, anyone have the same problem?
[09:52] <enyc> mbn: I use a modeline to got 1216x912 @ 99hz
[09:52] <GStubbs43> 915resolution?
[09:52] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde, stumped?
[09:52] <hydroksyde> yep
[09:52] <barattolo> garryF, the problem is that I need a username like name.surname
[09:52] <hydroksyde> if everyone used lilo
[09:52] <sysdoc> interfear, uname -r
[09:52] <FusE[Laptop] > ugh
[09:52] <barattolo> and users-admin wont let me do it
[09:52] <hydroksyde> like good linux users
[09:52] <FusE[Laptop] > should I do the whole thing over and use lilo?
[09:52] <mbn> enyc < modline ?
[09:52] <hydroksyde> then everything would be fine
[09:52] <enyc> mbn: modeline even
[09:52] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , might help
[09:52] <FusE[Laptop] > k ugh
[09:52] <hydroksyde> or
[09:52] <hydroksyde> reinstall
[09:52] <hydroksyde> and use grub
[09:53] <hydroksyde> which might work
[09:53] <FusE[Laptop] > tried that
[09:53] <enyc> mbn: its a config line for a video mode to the x-server
[09:53] <GStubbs43> http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/
[09:53] <hydroksyde> oh deer
[09:53] <hydroksyde> try lilo then
[09:53] <FusE[Laptop] > gave the exact same error
[09:53] <garryF> I don't think ubuntu allows that, you can create a use with first name last name in the full name box, but its always a one word login no spaces.
[09:53] <mbn> enyc: ill check it
[09:53] <barattolo> so there's really no way to do it?
[09:53] <garryF> Not far as I know.
[09:53] <garryF> Might be able to try username_sirname
[09:53] <mvhenten> Well, looked at all the calendar desklets but no 'real' functionality.
[09:54] <citizen> GStubbs43, here is a simple little program, that is easy to install: http://umn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/bonfire/bonfire-0.3.91.tar.gz
[09:54] <enyc> mbn: it sets like the  dot-clock speed,  the  number of x-pixels total per actual line, the number of visible pixels, the start/end of the hsync-pulse
[09:54] <barattolo> that's bad... what are thos privileges anyway?
[09:54] <brynk> is there an ubuntu channel with less people in it so i can actually ask a question?
[09:54] <barattolo> *those
[09:54] <enyc> mbn: and similar values for vertical-scanning
[09:54] <mvhenten> again: can anyone tell me of a nice calender application with "ical" functionality
[09:54] <enyc> mbn: which (9 numbers) sets a video mode
[09:54] <mvhenten> brynk: try different server?
[09:54] <roshan_s> brynk: You can ask it right here
[09:55] <garryF> No, Its ok brynk more users, better chance for answer.
[09:55] <brynk> i just did, but no-one seemed to notice :)
[09:55] <barattolo> I mean... are they stored anywhere? ora users-admin is just a frontend to a set of apps
[09:55] <brynk> since a few days i log out when i run the synaptic update or press the quit button, anyone have the same problem?
[09:55] <garryF> paging up
[09:55] <GStubbs43> I'll try that one
[09:56] <roshan_s> brynk: Does it happen with any other programs?
[09:56] <tripppy> ive intalled dapper ubuntu... what packages do i need for Xwindows system?
[09:56] <enyc> mbn: I was saynig.. .maybe the x-server thinks your moniter cant do that mode
[09:56] <void^> brynk: using nvidia's drivers?
[09:56] <brynk> roshan_s: not that i've noticed
[09:56] <enyc> mbn: what is the H and V  sync limits on your monitor ?
[09:56] <brynk> void^: jep
[09:56] <void^> brynk: that's probably the infamous "nvidia driver crashes on random piece of text"-bug.
[09:57] <citizen> haha
[09:57] <garryF> !nvidia
[09:57] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:57] <brynk> hmm never had any problems before
[09:57] <roshan_s> brynk: Does it happen every single time?
[09:57] <brynk> yeah it does
[09:57] <garryF> Hmmm, most strange.
[09:57] <garryF> Have you tithed to the cable gods?
[09:57] <GStubbs43> Okay, ./configure worked, but make and make install don't work
[09:58] <mbn> enyc: its suppose to support it as it works on other OS.
[09:58] <citizen> brynk, i know there is a setting for the quit button, that bypasses the option window
[09:58] <garryF> driver reinstall would be my next try.
[09:58] <barattolo> anyone knows where 'users-admin' app user's privileges are stored?
[09:58] <roshan_s> brynk: After it happens, could you paste the result of "tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old"
[09:58] <citizen> but i forget where it is :-P
[09:58] <void^> brynk: there's a number of reports on ubuntu's bugtracker, and see http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=73033 (careful, opening the link in that topic in firefox crashes nvidia drivers here)
[09:58] <sktx> can anyone recommend a decent cheap/free shell provider that's OK with irc?
[09:58] <enyc> mbn: kk...
[09:58] <Glimerrati> can any one tell me how 2 run tar.gz file?
[09:58] <enyc> mbn: what is the H and V  sync limits on your monitor ?
[09:59] <garryF> xchat seems ok.
[09:59] <sktx> Glimerrati: tar xvf filename.tar.gz
[09:59] <sktx> Glimerrati: to extract the file
[09:59] <brynk> void^: ok thanks, i'll take a look at that
[09:59] <ike> you can't run tar.gx.. it's an archive
[09:59] <Lynoure> sktx: don't the options take -  ?
[09:59] <brynk> roshan_s: it's crying about opening /dev/wacom (i don't use one)
[10:00] <citizen> ike, you know what he means
[10:00] <Lynoure> sktx: or it is, hmm, optional for options?
[10:00] <sktx> Lynoure: nope
[10:00] <jumbers> Does anybody know how to set up a VirtualHost for apache2/
[10:00] <ike> i think i know, yes
[10:00] <spades> Lynoure you can leave out -  i use tar xzf or czf personally and it works no prob
[10:00] <mbn> enyc: checking
[10:00] <sktx> Lynoure: not with tar
[10:00] <Lynoure> spades: I seem to be slave to my habits :)
[10:00] <barattolo> anyone knows where 'users-admin' app user's privileges are stored?  (sorry for repeating it.. )
[10:01] <spades> jumbers http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html
[10:01] <roshan_s> brynk: I don't think that's the problem
[10:01] <brynk> no guess not
[10:01] <FusE[Laptop] > I want a boy drive called Boy and a drived Girl and when I need a new one, I can call it Woman
[10:02] <jumbers> Oh wait, I can just edit my HOSTS file
[10:02] <FusE[Laptop] > opps
[10:02] <FusE[Laptop] > not woman
[10:02] <FusE[Laptop] > Baby
[10:02] <FusE[Laptop] > lol
[10:02] <jumbers> I just want a local "domain"
[10:02] <garryF> I have heard of watcom screens that double as drawing pads. Maybe it thinks it exists.
[10:02] <g2710> sorry for the noobie question... if i install ubuntu as a server.. and then use apt-get install ubuntu-desktop... will that allow me to run the desktop on startup.. or would i need to run something from the command line..??
[10:02] <enyc> g2710: iirc that will probably work fine
[10:02] <enyc> g2710: as the gdm etc. will auto-start
[10:03] <g2710> okie.. cool.. thanks
[10:03] <g2710> :)
[10:03] <enyc> g2710: that will then install the not-server-optimized kernel too I think
[10:03] <snoops> how can I with freenx get it so when I login, it logins to my current desktop?
[10:03] <enyc> g2710: youd thave to try it really
[10:03] <Whil> I'm having Vmware woes.
[10:04] <nevyn> oh?
[10:04] <g2710> i just want to have a development environment ..aka lamp environment.. on the ubuntu desktop..
[10:04] <jumbers> Yay for www.jnumbers.num!
[10:04] <g2710> so started with the lamp server.. first..
[10:04] <sktx> vmware will do that to ya
[10:04] <Whil> It will not install, but it sure keeps trying...
[10:04] <roshan_s> brynk: watcom drivers are configured by default. I've never heard of them causing crashes
[10:05] <citizen> whil: vmware=suck. use qemu
[10:05] <brynk> roshan_s: no i don't think that's got anything to do with it
[10:05] <citizen> it is much easier
[10:05] <Whil> citizen: What is qemu?
[10:05] <revilot> citizen
[10:05] <revilot>  what makes qemu better than vmware
[10:05] <citizen> it is a windows emulator
[10:05] <enyc> Whil: qemu is a pc emulator.....
[10:05] <enyc> revilot: both have their own advantages
[10:05] <roshan_s> brynk: If you're using nvidia drivers, thats almost certainly the problem
[10:05] <citizen> qemu is much easier for new users to configure
[10:06] <citizen> in my opinion
[10:06] <revilot> which one runs faster
[10:06] <tripppy>  ive intalled dapper ubuntu... what packages do i need for Xwindows system?
[10:06] <barattolo> I use qemu to create images and vmware player to use them
[10:06] <brynk> roshan_s: yeah probably, it's just weird because I never had any problems before
[10:06] <citizen> with qemu, you can set the amount of memory to give to windows
[10:06] <Whil> citizen:aside from easy config why is qemu better than vmware?
[10:06] <unstablesob> tripppy: easy answer is 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop'
[10:06] <Seveas> citizen, with vmware too...
[10:06] <Seveas> and easier, in a gui. Not silly command line arguments
[10:07] <revilot> qemu is gui?
[10:07] <Seveas> no
[10:07] <Seveas> vmware is gui
[10:07] <revilot> ah
[10:07] <revilot> what i thought
[10:07] <cello_rasp> is there any way of limiting the number of results of find ?
[10:07] <revilot> what about that parallel software
[10:07] <unstablesob> i just wish you could run vmware w/out X
[10:07] <tripppy> unstablesob, are things generally going to stuff up if i get xubuntu-desktop?, how do i switch into it?
[10:07] <Seveas> cello_rasp, sure
[10:08] <JairunCaloth> hey guys, I just installed mysql. but I didn't choose a password, and I don't know what the pass is
[10:08] <unstablesob> xubunt-desktop is xfce iirc
[10:08] <spades> tripppy pick the xfce session on login
[10:08] <JairunCaloth> so now I can't access it
[10:08] <cello_rasp> Seveas: how?
[10:08] <unstablesob> ubuntu-desktop gets you gnome
[10:08] <citizen> well, qemu is open-source
[10:08] <roshan_s> brynk: Do you want to try switching to the nv drivers to check?
[10:08] <citizen> and it makes me feel good to use it
[10:08] <unstablesob> kubuntu-desktop gets you kde
[10:09] <Seveas> cello_rasp, define 'limiting'. find can take a gazillion of arguments to filter
[10:09] <garryF> You will see a sessions choice. It allows you to choose if you want to run gnome, kde or others. You can have both gnome and kde on ubuntu btw, so far.
[10:09] <Seveas> alternatively, pipe it through head to do a crude limiting...
[10:09] <Whil> I'm going to try qemu
[10:09] <cello_rasp> Seveas: i was hoping there was an option like maxresults=1000000
[10:09] <Whil> citizen: Can I bug you for help if I need it?
[10:09] <Seveas> cello_rasp, find .... | head -n 1000000
[10:09] <citizen> Whil: good choice. Open source is the way to go
[10:09] <citizen> Whil, yes
[10:09] <brynk> roshan_s: yeah i'll try that in a bit to make sure
[10:09] <tigor> JairunCaloth: just use '-u root' the password should be empty and you _should change that
[10:10] <fraser> lo all
[10:10] <citizen> Whil, xiamcitizen@gmail.com is my email
[10:10] <cello_rasp> Seveas: mmm, nice and crude :)
[10:10] <citizen> I'm gonna be getting off IRC soon, so email me if you have question
[10:10] <citizen> s
[10:11] <Whil> Okay citizen: Thanks
[10:11] <barattolo> garryF, do you know where 'users-admin' app user's privileges are stored?
[10:11] <Whil> Quick one though. How do I get Vmware to quit trying to install?
[10:12] <Desh> I have a source duirectory for the fglrx driver, how would I build and install this?
[10:12] <Seveas> barattolo, /etc/group
[10:12] <garryF> barattolo No, the only way I've been able to change priveleges is via user/group manager, and choose the properties tab.
[10:12] <citizen> Whil: run "sudo killall" and then the process name
[10:13] <barattolo> thanks for your help garryF , really appreciated =)
[10:13] <mbn> enyc: Huston we have a problem. my screen is a shity proview. it support resolution of 1280x1024 but there is details in the manufacturer web site.
[10:13] <barattolo> thanks Seveas
[10:13] <citizen> it will most likely be vm something. if you type vm and then tab, it will show you
[10:13] <barattolo> I'll check that
[10:13] <mbn> enyc: so i need another way to find it. maybe i can find it in the windows inf files :(
[10:14] <garryF> barattolo welcome. I only hope it works. The user uid that has 1000 for the uid is the one that you should be using. I've tried creating extra users, and got same issue.
[10:14] <Whil> thanks again citizen
[10:14] <citizen> Whil: what version of windows will you be installing?
[10:15] <nenes> bonjour a tous
[10:15] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde I reinstalled Ubuntu but this time I installed LILO but now when I reboot It is still GRUB
[10:15] <Whil> citizen: I was thinking about xp
[10:15] <barattolo> garryF, seems there's no easy-way to do this... but I'm sure that these privileges are stored somewhere.. and changing the user's group wont affect those privs
[10:16] <Whil> citizen: Unless you have a differnt recommendation
[10:16] <citizen> well, i use 2000
[10:16] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde I reinstalled Ubuntu but this time I installed LILO but now when I reboot It is still GRUB
[10:16] <garryF> barattolo I'd check it out, but I'm running Centos atm.
[10:16] <Whil> I'll try xp. DO you get all the services in 2000?
[10:16] <citizen> XP runs a bit more slowly, but it is usable if you have enough RAM
[10:17] <citizen> Whil, how much RAM do you have?
[10:17] <Whil> citizen: I have over 512 so I might be okay
[10:17] <citizen> yeah
[10:17] <citizen> XP should run fine. what kind of processor?
[10:17] <ompaul> the windows support should be done in ##windows :-) it is not for here honestly we do something else called Ubuntu :-)
[10:17] <garryF> FusE[Laptop] , Try recovery install, and see if you can get system to mount, then run liloconfig if I recall.
[10:17] <Whil> 1.5 ghz celeron m
[10:17] <FusE[Laptop] > Im not way with words, what do you mean recovery isntall
[10:18] <garryF> It sounds like your lilo went to a different drive than the first one, and that you still have grub in the MBR of the boot hard drive.
[10:18] <Seveas> xchat.get_context()
[10:18] <citizen> ok, good, whil. xp should run well.
[10:18] <Whil> ompaul we are actually talking about qemu
[10:18] <Whil> citizen: okay. wish me luck
[10:18] <FusE[Laptop] > garryF I installed GRUB to the MBR then I Installed LILO to the MBR when I reinstalled
[10:18] <garryF> There should be a choice like recovery in the menu if you boot the install disk.
[10:18] <FusE[Laptop] > k sec
[10:19] <garryF> FusE[Laptop]  Hmm, sounds like it didn't take.
[10:19] <garryF> fuse Grub seems superior
[10:19] <citizen> good luck, whil :-) email me with question
[10:19] <citizen> s
[10:19] <roshan_s> Whil: citizen: Isn't QEMU very slow without the KQEMU module?
[10:20] <FusE[Laptop] > garrF, when I use GRUB, it sits like this: GRUB _ , but the _ blinks
[10:20] <FusE[Laptop] > I dont see a Recovery option
[10:20] <FusE[Laptop] > in the install menu?
[10:20] <FusE[Laptop] > im using live disk
[10:20] <Pecisk> people, tell me, why the hell GIMP doesn't have printing?! :)
[10:20] <Pecisk> from what time sake...
[10:20] <Pecisk> :)
[10:20] <fraser> Has anyone had much luck with ndiswrapper and broadcom 46xx?
[10:20] <Ribs> erm
[10:20] <Ribs> GIMP has printing
[10:20] <brynk> roshan_s: it works ok without the nvidia driver loaded
[10:20] <garryF> For help on group repair, google for grubfarm. They have a nice writeup on recovery.
[10:20] <citizen> roshan_s: not for me. i run Win 2k under qemu without the kqemu module
[10:21] <roshan_s> citizen: It certainly isn't as fast as VMWare
[10:21] <roshan_s> citizen: It makes a difference when you try running video, etc
[10:21] <Pecisk> Ribs: where? I can't find it under usual Files
[10:21] <Pecisk> in menu
[10:21] <enyc> mbn: its not important really
[10:21] <enyc> mbn: I was just going te look and ee what would be sensible etc.
[10:21] <garryF> if you get a c ommand line try mount /dev/hdx1 where X is the drive where linux boot is at and 1 is the partition number., so it could be /dev/hdx2 - ?
[10:22] <enyc> Pecisk: I think gimp prints fine ;-)
[10:22] <citizen> roshan_s: could be, but think of the open-source! i fell dirty running proprietary applications
[10:22] <citizen> feel*
[10:23] <enyc> Pecisk: however you may have to setup the printer model in GIMP itself (for postscript printers)
[10:23] <enyc> Pecisk: or remove the -oraw thing iirc for others... so cups handles it
[10:23] <roshan_s> citizen: Same here, but you're running Windows inside the VM anyway, and that's the king of proprietary
[10:23] <enyc> Pecisk: but this may have changed in dapper... not sure
[10:23] <citizen> haha, good point, roshan_s
[10:23] <mbn> enyc: i think its 0-86 / 0-160 ( thats what writen in the driver
[10:24] <enyc> mbn: coo ok... erm 86hz ... drrm
[10:24] <mbn> enyc: nope wrong
[10:24] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , try booting with a dos disk, and run fdisk /mbr
[10:24] <mbn> enyc: 30.0-86.0 / 50.0-160.0
[10:24] <FusE[Laptop] > I set it to check disk for errors
[10:24] <FusE[Laptop] > and I think it will take a while
[10:24] <citizen> adios, all. i need sleep.
[10:24] <hydroksyde> FusE[Laptop] , and they lie, lilo is better
[10:24] <enyc> mbn: /usr/bin/gtf 1152 864 93
[10:24] <enyc> mbn: on dapper
[10:25] <enyc> mbn: on breezy gtf is somewhere else  /usr/X11R6/bin/gtf or something
[10:25] <mbn> enyc: what is it ?
[10:25] <FusE[Laptop] > hydro
[10:25] <enyc> mbn: generalized timing formula
[10:25] <FusE[Laptop] > i installed lilo but grub is the one that appears
[10:25] <enyc> mbn: you can do 1152 x 864  at 93hz  under 86kHz H-scanning
[10:25] <garryF> Lilo is easier. I only went to grub when a distro I tried to install griped that the kernel over-wrote the lilo first stage.
[10:25] <roshan_s> citizen: And if you want to run Windows, VMWare is both faster and more smoothly integrated. And it comes packages in the repositories
[10:25] <enyc> mbn: if nothing else you could use that 'modeline' if xorg.conf is modified correctly
[10:26] <mbn> enyc: ok got an output. should i paste it to xorg.conf ?
[10:26] <mbn> or take part of it ?
[10:26] <garryF> Yeah, and he told it to over-write the mbr that had grub in it, with lilo.
[10:26] <citizen> roshan_s: oh. i didn't know it was in repos. well, Whil: if qemu is too hard, VMware would be easy as well
[10:26] <enyc> mbn: however... if you are near magnetic-ballast (older type w/ starter) flourescent lights in  a 50hz mains country you will want to use 85hz ish to avoid flicker-conflict-headache
[10:27] <enyc> mbn: erm... write to enyc (off channel...)
[10:27] <Whil> Citizen: I can't get VMware to install.
[10:27] <citizen> well, qemu is your best bet then
[10:28] <roshan_s> Whil: what is the problem? are you installing the vmware player?
[10:28] <citizen> but it is 0430, and i need sleep. good luck, Whil
[10:28] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde, fdisk /mbr?
[10:28] <Whil> Roshan: I tried installing the VM ware player and it gets to the end and can't load anything
[10:28] <garryF> Yeah, but I worry about that /fdisk for its made for windows.
[10:28] <Whil> citizen: thanks
[10:28] <Whil> for all your help
[10:29] <enyc> Whil: are you using the vmplayer packeg in ubunt-dapper multiverse ?
[10:29] <Pecisk> enyc: it has changed big time, Print has disappeared from File submenu :)
[10:29] <citizen> np. feel free to email anytime
[10:29] <FusE[Laptop] > hydroksyde, fdisk /mbr?
[10:29] <garryF> but might be your best bet.
[10:29] <enyc> Pecisk: looking....
[10:29] <col-panic> hm dapper got vmware huh?
[10:29] <garryF> Yes Fuse
[10:29] <Pecisk> I print from gThumbs which is perfect for that, but...it is kinda strange
[10:29] <Whil> enyc: I'm using the one in the repo
[10:29] <FusE[Laptop] > kk
[10:29] <citizen> col-panic: yes, ubuntu added proprietary apps to the repos
[10:29] <enyc> Whil: you need te update everything atd reboot.... it has kernel modules...
[10:29] <roshan_s> Whil: Do this: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure debconf"
[10:30] <col-panic> citizen: they add cedega? cause if they did I downloaded it for nothing lol
[10:30] <FusE[Laptop] > fuck, I cant remember the administrator password
[10:30] <FusE[Laptop] > garryF, what do I do
[10:30] <citizen> col-panic: they also added real player and opera
[10:30] <garryF> That would be the password for your regular user.
[10:30] <citizen> col-panic: idk, check synaptic
[10:30] <col-panic> citizen: i added the one wit those too
[10:30] <Whil> i have cedega too but will that run windows?
[10:30] <FusE[Laptop] > garryF, I typed my password
[10:30] <col-panic> hence my waits on shipit remark :)
[10:30] <col-panic> Whil: cedega is for programs not OSes
[10:30] <enyc> Pecisk: on my dapper gimp-2 (latest update today)
[10:30] <roshan_s> Whil: and select the Gnome frontend
[10:31] <enyc> Pecisk: right click on image > file > Print
[10:31] <col-panic> I hear qemo is pretty badass though
[10:31] <garryF> Check cap's lock
[10:31] <enyc> Pecisk: is there
[10:31] <citizen> col-panic: when did you order?
[10:31] <col-panic> like a month or two ago
[10:31] <citizen> i got mine last week
[10:31] <citizen> lo
[10:31] <col-panic> got kubuntu+ubuntu coming
[10:31] <citizen> l
[10:31] <garryF> I've fat fingered passwords like mad before.
[10:31] <FusE[Laptop] > aint on, is there a way I can do the command without using the winxp recovery console?
[10:31] <col-panic> quiet you, the fine folks at canonical must consider NC 'low-priority'
[10:31] <FusE[Laptop] > I am an aministrator
[10:32] <roshan_s> Whil: Cedega will run some Windows games, but not windows itself
[10:32] <FusE[Laptop] > and I am using the right windows installation path
[10:32] <garryF> OH yeah, darn, I forgot. Fdisk isn't in winxp. Its in prior versions.
[10:32] <Whil> roshan: I got a blue screen about debconf
[10:32] <citizen> haha. why didn't you downlad, col-panic
[10:32] <FusE[Laptop] > what do I dnow?
[10:32] <col-panic> citizen: don't be one of those arrogrant people who assumes monkeys in mongolia get cable
[10:32] <roshan_s> Whil: What does the screen tell you?
[10:32] <garryF> google for mbr restore
[10:32] <col-panic> because humans 6 miles out of city limits dont get it
[10:33] <garryF> or get fdisk off old windows/dos disk
[10:33] <col-panic> cable company comes like 200 ft. away from me on a side road, but WONT come up this road...
[10:33] <citizen> col-panic: monkies in mongolia don't get cable?!
[10:33] <Whil> roshan it tells me about answering questions
[10:34] <roshan_s> Whil: When it asks you which interface to use, tell it to use the Gnome interface
[10:34] <Whil> roshan i did and after that?
[10:34] <citizen> col-panic: well, if you stayed online dapper could download in about a day on a 56k connection
[10:35] <garryF> Ouch!
[10:35] <roshan_s> Whil: Just select Next and press enter
[10:35] <FusE[Laptop] > I cant find a mbr restore
[10:35] <col-panic> I'm on 28.8.... hence my extreme anger at the drunk-as-a-mofo cable co.
[10:35] <Pecisk> enyc: do this everytime when I open image to print, but...what a heck, it is not there :) Must be a bug...
[10:35] <garryF> sounds like only choice is a full restore
[10:35] <ryantrip> hey i need help. xubuntu wouldnt start up past loading hardware drivers. so i ran it in recovery mode, and it stoped at [ 65.952005]  intel8x0: clocking to 48000. what is wrong?
[10:35] <compengi> citizen, more than one day
[10:35] <Whil> roshan it says ignore questions with a priority less than?
[10:35] <FusE[Laptop] > !!!
[10:35] <ompaul> !language
[10:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about !!
[10:36] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:36] <roshan_s> Whil: Select "high"
[10:36] <col-panic> I don't 'own' this house or the ISP acct so staying online is out of the question
[10:36] <citizen> compengi: lol. did you do it?
[10:36] <ompaul> FusE[Laptop] , the ! is a trigger for the channel bot
[10:36] <garryF> Yes
[10:36] <compengi> citizen, i have 128k ISDN connection it took me over 16h
[10:36] <garryF> nm
[10:36] <garryF> misread
[10:36] <Whil> roshan okay I did
[10:36] <garryF> I'm getting brain dead.
[10:36] <Whil> roshan im back at the command prompt now
[10:36] <ryantrip> hey i need help. xubuntu wouldnt start up past loading hardware drivers. so i ran it in recovery mode, and it stoped at [ 65.952005]  intel8x0: clocking to 48000. what is wrong?
[10:36] <enyc> Pecisk: update it........ ;-)
[10:36] <citizen> compengi: is that an upgrade from breezy, or a full install?
[10:37] <col-panic> so that's .... 64h to download dapper. no thanks or I'll wait.
[10:37] <compengi> install
[10:37] <enyc> Pecisk: theres been patches recently in dapper-seucrity er dapper-updates
[10:37] <col-panic> ISDN is like $100 / mo. and it doesn't even come this far. :(
[10:37] <citizen> bah, i g2g. its quarter till 5 in the morning
[10:37] <col-panic> at least the local telco prices
[10:37] <Whil> night citizen
[10:38] <col-panic> ntpdate: it's 4:37 here lol
[10:38] <FusE[Laptop] > garryF, what am I supposed to do
[10:38] <citizen> haha yah
[10:38] <ompaul> ryantrip, there is a #xubuntu however that is more like you should go into grub (press esc at the very first screen) and type in some of the more popular entries here wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions
[10:38] <Whil> <-- 4:37 am here
[10:38] <FusE[Laptop] > I need all that data
[10:38] <col-panic> :)
[10:38] <citizen> yeah*
[10:38] <roshan_s> Whil: Now try "sudo apt-get install vmware-player"
[10:38] <ryantrip> ompaul: i tried that chanel and the guy who was helping did not know what aas wrong
[10:39] <garryF> Well, I'm not sure. You might try googling grubfarm for info on repairing a grub install.
[10:39] <firstpua> is there a way to add comments to an existing avi file, similar to those in an mp3 files, if so what tool?
[10:39] <col-panic> im just gonna install xfce as soon as my CDs come lol
[10:39] <Whil> roshan im waiting
[10:39] <ompaul> ryantrip, check out the end of my comment it may work for you
[10:39] <ryantrip> ok
[10:39] <garryF> FusE[Laptop]  or trying to switch the drive order and booting off the linux drive if it's a separate drive and see if that helps.
[10:39] <ompaul> ryantrip, they get appended to the kernel line
[10:40] <ryantrip> kk
[10:40] <roshan_s> Whil: There might be a little problem. Which kernel are you using?
[10:40] <garryF> FusE[Laptop]  thatis switching the order of drives in bios.
[10:40] <Whil> i think 25
[10:40] <Whil> roshan
[10:40] <Whil> roshan it failed to start
[10:40] <garryF> FusE[Laptop]  past that, only a reinstall is my last idea.
[10:40] <Whil> should i roll back to 23 roshan?
[10:41] <roshan_s> Whil: What is the error?
[10:41] <Whil> roshan: action start failed
[10:41] <col-panic> quick question: anyone know if the s3 savage card gets DRI support in dapper? I heard it did.
[10:42] <roshan_s> Whil: did it install properly?
[10:42] <citizen> bah, i'll just pull an all nighter. too late to sleep, anyway
[10:42] <Whil> roshan yes i think so. it just didn't start
[10:42] <Whil> roshan the next line says error configure
[10:43] <roshan_s> Whil: Did you get a license confirmation box?
[10:43] <Whil> roshan it said i already accepted the license because i did.
[10:44] <roshan_s> Whil: Do these errors occur when you try to start vmware?
[10:44] <col-panic> peace y'all
[10:44] <ryantrip> ompaul: do i hit e to edit the comands? or hit c for command line
[10:44] <Whil> i haven't tried to start it yet. Of course i haven't rebooted either roshan.
[10:44] <snadge> could anybody possibly shed some light on why oidentd, always returns NO USER? when its set up by default to forward masqueraded ident (auth) requests to the originating client
[10:45] <nofear> does anyone know if a epson stylus cx3810 printer will work in ubuntu?
[10:45] <ompaul> e
[10:45] <ompaul> ryantrip, e
[10:45] <Whil> roshan when I try to start it it says command not found
[10:45] <deFrysk> nofear, http://www.linuxprinting.org/
[10:45] <snadge> if not.. can anybody recommend a suitable ident (auth) server that works with masqueraded hosts for them?
[10:45] <citizen> nofear, yes
[10:45] <ryantrip> ompaul: then do i add a new line?
[10:46] <roshan_s> Whil: you needn't reboot. Can you open synaptic and see if it shows vmware-player as installed? And see in the status bar if it says anything about broken packages
[10:46] <ompaul> ryanakca, no add it to the kernel line
[10:46] <Pupeno> Hello.
[10:46] <Pupeno> Does anybody know about a howto to write Sieve scripts ?
[10:46] <nofear> ok ill check that site out
[10:46] <citizen> nofear, there are divers installed in ubuntu for that particular printer
[10:46] <ompaul> ryantrip, no add it to the kernel line
[10:46] <Whil> roshan just a sec
[10:46] <nofear> ya, i dotn see it on my version tho
[10:47] <nofear> im using 5.10
[10:47] <citizen> ooh
[10:47] <Whil> roshan: It's installed... Nothing broken
[10:47] <citizen> do you have a broadband connection, nofear?
[10:47] <ryantrip> ompaul: could i open a private conversation with u so yo could walk me though it?
[10:47] <nofear> some-what
[10:47] <nofear> im on satilite lol
[10:47] <citizen> you ought to try upgrading to dapper
[10:48] <nofear> hummm
[10:48] <roshan_s> Whil: What's the output of 'uname -r'?
[10:48] <nofear> its like over 400meg upgrade?
[10:48] <deFrysk> nofear, try 600 meg
[10:48] <citizen> yes, but is is totally worht is
[10:48] <nofear> lol ok
[10:48] <deFrysk> ;p
[10:48] <nofear> ya i wouldnt be able download it
[10:48] <citizen> it has long term supprt
[10:48] <Whil> roshan 2.6.15-26
[10:48] <deFrysk> and yes its totaly worth it
[10:48] <citizen> oh, okay
[10:48] <nofear> i get capped after 300 megs
[10:48] <nofear> stupid satilite!
[10:49] <citizen> haha
[10:49] <Whil> roshan with a -386 on the end
[10:49] <deFrysk> nofear, get some free coasters of dapper
[10:49] <nofear> will do
[10:49] <xaxxon> I have 2 monitors hooked up to a single video card with a DVI and VGA out.  I have a 1600x1200 LCD hooked to the DVI via DVI and a 1600x1200 LCD hooked to the VGA via VGA.  the VGA one comes up as 1600x1200, the other as 1280x1024 :(
[10:50] <nofear> just takes such a long to for me to recive
[10:50] <nofear> last time i did that it took about 6 weeks for it to get to my place
[10:50] <citizen> xaxxon. that much look awful
[10:50] <xaxxon> citizen, yes
[10:50] <deFrysk> nofear, got mine 2 weeks ago :)
[10:50] <citizen> xaxxon, you should try reconfiguring x.or
[10:50] <citizen> g
[10:50] <roshan_s> Whil: Check in synaptic to see if vmware-player-kernel-modules-2.6.15-25 is installed. If so, reboot into kernel -25
[10:50] <nofear> lucky
[10:50] <nofear> :p
[10:50] <xaxxon> citizen, yes, I agree.. but every time I goof with it, it goes from working but crappy to nothing
[10:51] <ompaul> ryantrip, yes
[10:51] <citizen> xaxxon, i will link you to a howto, hold on while i find it
[10:51] <deFrysk> nofear, otherwise go to your local kiosk and get some linux magazine with dapper included
[10:51] <ryantrip> ompaul: ok i did
[10:51] <Whil> there is either 23 or 2.6.15 inclusive roshan both are installed
[10:51] <xaxxon> citizen: ok.  I've read a bunch..
[10:51] <deFrysk> like linuxformat or whatever
[10:51] <revilot> what does everyone recommend for an ftp client
[10:51] <hawkaloogie> revilot, nautilus
[10:52] <revilot> eh
[10:52] <xaxxon> when I bring up the screen resolution dialog, it only gives me 2880x1200@50hz.. which is just totally weird
[10:52] <Whil> roshan plus i don't know how to change my kernel, i get no such option at boot time.
[10:52] <deFrysk> revilot, gftp is nice
[10:52] <citizen> xaxxon, so you know about xinerama
[10:52] <hawkaloogie> gftp is hella buggy, especially when queuing a lot of files
[10:52] <xaxxon> citizen: twinview
[10:52] <xaxxon> err
[10:52] <citizen> gftp works great for me
[10:52] <xaxxon> I know about twinview

[10:53] <citizen> xaxxon, go here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[10:53] <xaxxon> the nvidia proprietary drivers have some sort of built in xinerama?
[10:53] <xaxxon> going

[10:53] <deFrysk> apt-cache search ftp and take your pick
[10:53] <afflux>  morgen
[10:53] <deFrysk> moi
[10:53] <citizen> revilot, yes
[10:53] <citizen> revilot, i have CVS installed
[10:53] <xaxxon> citizen: ooh, I see goodness
[10:53] <revilot> vitaly:  ill check that out
[10:54] <FusE[Laptop] > garryF I can not help but say that your help has put me in a worse position
[10:54] <citizen> well, last night's CVS
[10:54] <revilot> citizen: CVS is above my head, new to linux
[10:54] <roshan_s> Whil: Don't you get a GRUB menu at boot time? Or a message saying "press esc to see boot menu?" You need to go into that and select 2.6.15-25. This is just temporary until a new vmware kernel module is released. And what do you mean by 2.6.15 inclusive?
[10:54] <xaxxon> hahaha yeah, I know what I did wrong...
[10:54] <citizen> oh, yeah, don't mess arounf with CVS
[10:55] <Whil> roshan ill look at grub again in a sec. The second kernel module says 2.6.15 with no dash after it.
[10:55] <citizen> uh, thats weird
[10:55] <stefg> !info vmware-player-kernel-modules 2.6.15-26
[10:55] <ubotu> vmware-player-kernel-modules: vmware-player kernel module dependency package. In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 2.6.15.10-7 (dapper), package size 6 kB, installed size 40 kB
[10:55] <citizen> it should have the arc after is
[10:55] <xaxxon> citizen: that had it.  it was my metamodes.. I didn't understand how it worked, but I saw the example on that page and I smacked my forehead
[10:56] <citizen> xaxxon: glad to help!
[10:56] <Whil> roshan: so i need to boot into the previous kernel?
[10:56] <roshan_s> Whil: That's weird. Such a package shouldn't exist. Look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=vmware-player&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[10:57] <dentist> how do i install a kernel module on bootup?
[10:57] <roshan_s> Whil: Yes. Boot into -25 until a new kernel module comes out
[10:57] <Whil> roshan ill give it a try. be right back
[10:58] <stefg> So i see that the latest kernel update broke vmware-player because there are no updated kernel modules yet. Did already anyone succeed in building matching modules themselves? is m-a the tool to gor that?
[10:58] <Nickay> hi.  i would like to ask if ubuntu has KDE enviroment by defualt or i must install it ?
[10:58] <citizen> nickay: http://www.kubuntu.org
[10:58] <kakado> dentist, I think you just add it to /etc/modules at least the way in debian
[10:58] <jrib> Nickay: you can install kubuntu, or just install the kubuntu-desktop package on ubuntu
[10:59] <stefg> Nickay: you'll want kubuntu if you prefer KDE.. there's #kubuntu as well
[10:59] <Nickay> citizen i must download and install kubuntu or can i install only KDE?
[10:59] <citizen> you'll wanna download kubuntu
[10:59] <Nickay> ok
[11:00] <citizen> nickay, for future help with KDE, use the channel #kubuntu
[11:00] <TiG4> Kickersny, You there?

[11:05] <jrib> TiG4: hmm I haven 't set this up myself, but I think you need mod_perl for apache.  Did you install libapache-mod-perl or do you think there is a different way to do it?
[11:05] <Whil> roshan: no such luck

[11:30] <Kibou> snoops: you can't
[11:30] <snoops> I can't? Damn.
[11:30] <Kibou> snoops: use x11vnc or, if you use gnome, vino
[11:31] <snoops> so it only rcreates 'new' sessions?
[11:31] <Kibou> snoops: yes
[11:31] <snoops> you apparently can use freenx to tunnel vnc over it
[11:31] <snoops> which is supposed to speed it up a heck of a lot
[11:31] <sysrpl> hello
[11:31] <Seveas> snoops, no it can speed up remote X, but vnc not very much
[11:32] <roshan_s> Whil: Do "VISUAL=gedit sudoedit /etc/apt/sources.list" I'm going to paste you a new sources.list. Replace yours with that.
[11:32] <sysrpl> can i get  some help? my gnome desktop crash and i can;t get back into it
[11:32] <seamus_ie> sysrpl: <ctrl>+<alt>+<backspace>
[11:32] <sysrpl> the gnome taskbar blinks and it dumps back out to the xlogin screen when i attempt to load gnome
[11:33] <sysrpl> and i've rebooted already
[11:33] <sysrpl> the problem started when i was in the gnome theme applet
[11:33] <Whil> roshan okay im ready for it
[11:34] <frogzoo> how can I change the default gnome apps - for sound (which I'd like to make amarok), and for calculator (galculator) ?
[11:34] <seamus_ie> sysrpl: what theme did you apply?
[11:34] <sysrpl> the clock crashed when i had selected a particular theme, and then the  screen filled with garbage
[11:34] <porkpie> hi cna some post there static ifconfig for me please ...I am having problems configuring a static ip
[11:34] <sysrpl> it was last on crux
[11:34] <snoops> Seveas right, I'm just saying what I've read about - since it's using compression and a caching to speed up x, hopefully the same for vnc
[11:34] <sysrpl> it didnt crash right away
[11:34] <snoops> because basically vnc is too ridiculously slow fo rme
[11:34] <frogzoo> porkpie: pastebin your interfaces
[11:34] <snoops> and I just want to control my actual desktop I'm working on in near real time over a network..
[11:34] <Seveas> snoops, freenx does its best but vnc is just too dump a protocol to get good speedup
[11:34] <porkpie> frogzoo:I can't  ....
[11:35] <sysrpl> but crux was the last theme i was looking at before the problem got so bad i couldn't use gnome anymore

I tried to set up a ftp server on my Ubuntu and connect to it from windows, using local network addresses. It works but it is slow : 500kBps. What do you think would be the most efficient way to do it?
[11:55] <narfmaster> fm, i get 8 MB/s on my ftp
[11:55] <narfmaster> fm, you probably have a cap set too low
[11:56] <kakado> fm, samba if you have the time
[11:56] <fm> hm, where? I'm using proftpd with default config file
[11:56] <monomaniacpat> should ubuntu support 1360x768?
[11:56] <frogzoo> fm: that should work just fine, at close to 100Mbps ... wierd
[11:57] <fm> The laptop has a wireless connection, maybe it is slower than ethernet

[11:57] <narfmaster> fm, look for TransferRate in the /etc/proftpd.conf file
[11:57] <sysrpl> i am now removing the gtk2-engines-crux package
[11:57] <sysrpl> maybe that will work

[12:00] <fm> but the router might be slower
[12:00] <narfmaster> fm, is that wireless USB on the laptop?
[12:00] <Whil> roshan_s: maybe i should uninstall and reinstall it?
[12:00] <aunes> seamus_ie: copied over the output from dircolors to a file on the server. I run dircolors filename and it returns the error: dircolors: .dircolors:1: invalid line;  missing second token   ...Any ideas?
[12:01] <fm> don't understang ur question nerfmaster
[12:01] <narfmaster> fm, if it's USB that could slow it down too
[12:01] <monomaniacpat> does ubuntu support 1360x768? I have it specified in my xorg.conf
[12:01] <roshan_s> Whil: what happens if you do " dpkg -L vmware-player-kernel-modules-2.6.15-25"
[12:01] <porkpie> frogzoo: what entry do I add for bringing the interface up automatically at bootup
[12:01] <fm> ah ok, no the wireless chip is integrated

[12:04] <seamus_ie> aunes: try echo "export LS_COLORS='$LS_COLORS'" | ssh user@host 'cat >> .bashrc'
[12:04] <porkpie> frogzoo:do you use ubuntu-server ?
[12:04] <narfmaster> t0dd2, i think you have to set the keyboard shortcut for that yourself
[12:05] <Whil> roshan_s: yep
[12:05] <aunes> seamus_ie: /home/swampfox/.bashrc: line 6: [: -: unary operator expected     -- ????

[12:14] <Whil> roshan_s: module not found
[12:15] <aunes> seamus_ie: glorious. thanks for all of your help.
[12:15] <snoops> lz1gjd.. ohh thought you meant when you log out and log back in.. I don't think you can define where a window will be on the desktop when you start
[12:15] <jrib> lz1gjd: you can use devilspie to tell it what position you want it to open windows in but I don't think it lets you remember last position
[12:15] <seamus_ie> aunes: no worries, just stick the export LS_COLORS in your bashrc, i'm gonna take it down in a min
[12:15] <aunes> seamus_ie: alright. thanks.

[12:18] <warlock> seamus_ie, Yeah I know. but what is the process?
[12:19] <seamus_ie> warlock: postfix is 'A high-performance mail transport agent'
[12:19] <organicthrill> Hi Everyone, I'm having a problem when I run mkinitramfs. Here's the output /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: line 42: /etc/mkinitramfs/conf.d/resume: No such file or directory#
[12:19] <roshan_s> Whil: Now do a "sudo modprobe vmnet"
[12:19] <warlock> seamus_ie, hmmm. can I remove this somehow? I dont use a mail server
[12:19] <Kanpachi> hello, i just installed msttcorefonts and those took over my computer! how can i replace them or enlarge them?
[12:19] <organicthrill> yet, ls of ls /etc/mkinitramfs/conf.d/ shows that I have resume
[12:20] <Whil> roshan_s:  again no response
[12:20] <seamus_ie> warlock: sudo /etc/init.d/postfix stop will stop it for you but it will restart in reboot
[12:20] <warlock> kk
[12:20] <Jimmy89> hey guys
[12:20] <roshan_s> Whil: Now try running vmplayer again
[12:20] <seamus_ie> warlock: just uninstall it, but it might try to take lots with it
[12:20] <Jimmy89> i just installed ubuntu 6.06, and i was wondering how do i copy files into the /usr directory
[12:20] <Jimmy89> it says access denied
[12:21] <Jimmy89> i want to allow full access
[12:21] <jrib> Kanpachi: your computer should be using system > preferences > fonts.  Are there particular programs where they "took over"?
[12:21] <warlock> seamus_ie, might try to take a lots with it<- ?
[12:21] <POVaddct> Jimmy89: you don't
[12:21] <seamus_ie> Jimmy86: sudo cp
[12:21] <Kanpachi> yes
[12:21] <Kanpachi> firefox
[12:21] <Kanpachi> and system menus
[12:21] <warlock> and how do i uninstall it then? apt-get remove postfix --purge ?
[12:21] <Jimmy89> is there another way
[12:21] <Jimmy89> can i just make myself root or something, so its a bit mroe user friendly
[12:21] <seamus_ie> warlock: a lot of other packages might be dependent on it, eg mutt
[12:21] <Whil> roshan_s: its starting just a sec for the results
[12:21] <Jimmy89> i want to be able to just copy and paste into it
[12:21] <Jimmy89> no sudo cp shit
[12:21] <warlock> seamus_ie, so theres no way? :P
[12:22] <seamus_ie> warlock: through synaptic or dpkg --purge postfix
[12:22] <narfmaster> Jimmy89, why into /usr ?
[12:22] <POVaddct> Jimmy89: /usr is not for user data. is stands for unix system resources. and working as root all the time is a bad idea.
[12:22] <jrib> Kanpachi: for firefox, edit > preferences > content, not sure why your system fonts changed.  Try checking system > preferences > fonts
[12:22] <POVaddct> Jimmy89: anyway, if you want a root shell, type: sudo -s
[12:23] <Whil> roshan_s: seems to be stuck on dhcp
[12:23] <warlock> Also, guys. this might be a dumb question, is there any php webinterface system to show how much cpu/ram i have, and being used ?(not sysinfo, it doenst provide me with cpu stats)
[12:23] <Jimmy89> i am installing webmin
[12:23] <Subhuman> !postfix
[12:23] <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
[12:23] <interfear> How do i install mplayer i heard its in the universal, how do i get to that?
[12:23] <Jimmy89> and the instructions say put it into /usr
[12:23] <POVaddct> Jimmy89: webmin a one big security hole. don't use it.
[12:23] <jrib> interfear: it's actually in multiverse
[12:23] <Jimmy89> attempted to and access denied
[12:23] <roshan_s> Whil: Right. Now you should insert your Windows CD and try again
[12:23] <jrib> !multiverse > interfear
[12:23] <Jimmy89> ok, if not that can you recommened me something else?
[12:24] <Whil> i thought i could network boot it
[12:24] <Jimmy89> i need to be able to do 2 things on this computer, 1 ) Firewall / NAT , 2) Capture Data from a weather station
[12:24] <Whil> roshan_s: i have a winxp disk so no biggie
[12:24] <samuli> Jimmy89, you don't have the access to /usr because you're not root.
[12:24] <samuli> Jimmy89, just use sudo if you really need to put something in there.
[12:24] <roshan_s> Do you have a DHCP and TFTP server on your current PC? Currently the VM can only see your PC on the network
[12:24] <seamus_ie> interfear: in synaptic settings>repositories, add universe
[12:25] <sexcopter8000m> hi, i've installed the 686 kernel, it works fine, so is it safe to remove the 386 kernel? just remove linux-386?
[12:25] <Jimmy89> will do
[12:25] <Jimmy89> with regards to webmin, is there something better that can do NAT and dial up a dsl connection for me?
[12:25] <Whil> roshan_s: okay i get it,
[12:25] <monomaniacpat> POVaddct: no, it is a dell
[12:26] <monomaniacpat> POVaddct: I'm trying to setup so I can play on my TV
[12:26] <narfmaster> sexcopter8000m, that should be fine
[12:26] <narfmaster> you don't really need 386 unless you have a Pentium or older CPU
[12:27] <roshan_s> Whil: I need to leave now. If you have any further trouble, email me: roshan.shariff at gmail dot com
[12:27] <sexcopter8000m> narfmaster, my thoughts exactly, thanks
[12:27] <POVaddct> monomaniacpat: sorry, i know nothing about tv-out
[12:28] <monomaniacpat> POVaddct: It's through a VGA cable, not svideo
[12:28] <Jimmy89> Hey guys, is there a program i can install on ubuntu that will allow me to use it as a router / firewall device?
[12:28] <POVaddct> monomaniacpat: a TV with vga input?
[12:28] <Jimmy89> similar to a smoothwall, though i need to run some other stuff on it too, so smoothwall isnt an option afaik
[12:28] <monomaniacpat> POVaddct: yes, it is an HDTV
[12:29] <narfmaster> Jimmy89, any type of firewall should do fine i think
[12:29] <POVaddct> monomaniacpat: don't know about that either. my TV is old.
[12:30] <Enverex> I've installed the fglrx driver on my laptop and it's set to use it in the xorg config file but when I run fglrxinfo or try and run a 3D game it spits out loads of errors all starting with "[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for somethingorother"
[12:30] <Enverex> Any ideas?
[12:30] <monomaniacpat> POVaddct: it shouldn't matter.... Why does the resolution GUI not list 1360x768 as an option?
[12:30] <Whil> roshan_s: im starting the install
[12:31] <phire> Can I check the smart status of a drive from within ubuntu?
[12:31] <Jaak> how do i acces wacom-tools
[12:31] <POVaddct> monomaniacpat: maybe the TV didn't report such a resolution. the bios tries to read monitor info via the DDC protocol. if the "monitor" (TV in your case) doesn't support DDC, it cannot be probed.
[12:31] <narfmaster> monomaniacpat, do you have the scanning frequencies set right?
[12:31] <POVaddct> monomaniacpat: in that case, you'll have to edit your xorg.conf manually i guess
[12:32] <monomaniacpat> narfmaster: I did set it to 60hz vertrefresh but even less resolutions come up
[12:32] <narfmaster> that sounds like a tough one
[12:33] <Jaak> !wacom
[12:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about wacom - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:33] <narfmaster> Jimmy89, i think most linux people use iptables

[12:35] <darkowl> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=213559 PLEASE HELP
[12:35] <samuli> phire, just add that resolution to your xorg.conf.
[12:36] <phire> its there
 what is the problem ?
[12:36] <phire> but the resuluton changer skipps over it
[12:37] <phire> I've setup my xorg.conf file with, "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480" "640x350" in the correct place
[12:40] <Tmob> anyone here use a intel 915 chipset and got suspend/resume working properly/
[12:40] <Tmob> mine hangs up after resume
[12:40] <phire> but system > Prefrences > Screen Resulotion has the options 1280x1024, 1024x768, 800x600, 640x400 and a few wide screen resoluitions
[12:40] <Jimmy89> so to copy something from desktop to user what would be the command
[12:41] <Jimmy89> sudo cp ....... /usr/
[12:41] <compengi> phire, i don't understand where is your problem, if you have 1280x1024
[12:42] <phire> but my screen only suports 60 hz at 1280x1024, which i have problems looking at
[12:42] <Desh> Anyone here used VLC in CLI?
[12:43] <Enverex> I've installed the fglrx driver on my laptop and it's set to use it in the xorg config file but when I run fglrxinfo or try and run a 3D game it spits out loads of errors all starting with "[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for somethingorother"
[12:43] <compengi> phire, the 60hz is because your screen doesn't support on this resolution ove it
[12:43] <compengi> over*
[12:44] <Desh> Enverex: type fglrxinfo at a terminal
[12:44] <compengi> phire, i ment your monitor
[12:44] <Enverex> Desh, As I said, doing that just gives the same errors
[12:44] <phire> yes, thats my max refresh rate 1280x1024 @ 60. which is why on windows i use 1152x864 @ 75
[12:44] <hastesaver> Hi, I see "" in the terminal where there should be (I guess) bolding or colour, does anyone know what's wrong?
[12:44] <Desh> Enverex, then your fglrx is not properly configured.
[12:45] <Desh> Enverex, you might want to check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:45] <Enverex> Desh, : Erm, don't really see anything in there that would need changing...
[12:45] <Desh> Enverex, does glxgears work?
[12:46] <warlock> Is there any php webinterface system to show how much cpu/ram i have, and being used ?(not sysinfo, it doenst provide me with cpu stats)
[12:46] <Enverex> Desh, Nope, same error
[12:46] <Desh> Enverex, then your OpenGL/DRI is not working, try setting fglrx as the driver when running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:47] <Desh> Enverex, fglrx never worked for me. :(
[12:47] <Jaak> is there a config interface for wacom? i have the wacom-tools installed but don't know how to acces it?
[12:48] <Desh> at a terminal type: wacom or wacom-tools, maybe?
[12:48] <Desh> Jaak, did that work?
[12:48] <Jimmy89> where is the partitionor once your in ubuntu, i want to resise my root volume
[12:49] <SeraVitae> Jimmy89 - fdsik
[12:49] <narfmaster> Jimmy89, fdisk
[12:49] <Desh> Jimmy89, I don't know if you can do it from ubuntu, you may need to boot up to a LiveCD such as Knoppic of the Ubuntu LiveCD
[12:49] <Desh> *kNOPPIX
[12:49] <Enverex> Desh, rofl, awesome, autodetect monitor quit X then hardlocked the machine
[12:50] <Desh> Everex, it's supposed to quit X, then return afterwards.
[12:50] <Desh> *Enverex
[12:50] <Enverex> It just hardlocked, heh
[12:50] <Jaak> Desh, no
[12:50] <Desh> Jaak, try googling it?
[12:50] <Desh> Enverex, if that fails, try it w/o autodetecting.
[12:50] <SeraVitae> hey narfmaster.
[12:50] <Enverex> Desh, : It was using fglrx to load X, but it just wasn't working for 3D which makes me think openGL isn't set up properly
[12:50] <Desh> Enverex, or try it from CLI.
[12:50] <narfmaster> hey SeraVitae
[12:51] <SeraVitae> i solved every problem until now. :D
[12:51] <Jimmy89> ok
[12:51] <Jimmy89> with fdisk how to do i resise
[12:51] <Desh> Enverex, fglrx has many bugs that cause it not to work, I use the "ati" driver, but no 3d.
[12:51] <SeraVitae> getting video card to work properly is my last issue before i have a perfect install.
[12:51] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, sledgehammer to the CD drive??
[12:51] <Desh> SeraVitae: What type of gfx card?
[12:51] <SeraVitae> it wasnt the cd drive
[12:51] <SeraVitae> :)
[12:51] <Enverex> Desh, : Yeah, I tried that but I couldn't play any games (simple 3d games I mean) and not even screensavers ran properly (like 2fps))
[12:51] <Desh> !fdisk
[12:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about fdisk - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:52] <narfmaster> that's good
[12:52] <DaveyJ> isnt gparted a lot better than fdisk?
[12:52] <DaveyJ> i use the gparted livecd usually
[12:52] <Desh> Isn't fdisk that crap on those Windows boot floppies?
[12:52] <narfmaster> fdisk makes you hard core ;)
[12:52] <DaveyJ> Desh: built with the same idea.. not the same program though
[12:52] <Desh> I used to use it on Windows.
[12:52] <hyperstream> hmm
[12:52] <Desh> Ah ok.
[12:52] <SeraVitae> chicks dig command line
[12:53] <compengi> phire, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=129379&postcount=21 maybe this can help

[12:53] <hyperstream> how do i go about setting up my wireless wg111t ? ndiswrapper??
[12:53] <DaveyJ> well either way.. for partition editing i strongly recommend gparted from personal experience
[12:53] <cameronbergh> so hey guess what?. im having a problem!
[12:53] <Desh> Anyone here used VLC in command line?

[01:04] <phire> ubuntu froze
[01:04] <phire> well I'm sure its doing better than win me
[01:04] <ompaul> phire, unusual, to say the least
[01:04] <phire> I'm pritty sure its a hardware problem

[01:05] <iXiPHoCiSiXi> hello everyone
[01:05] <phire> I'm try to find the hardware problem, which logs should I look in
[01:06] <narfmaster> is there a man file or doc that describes strftime()?
[01:06] <jrib> narfmaster: 'man strftime'
[01:06] <narfmaster> jrib, ok...
[01:06] <ompaul> phire, start with syslog /var/logs/syslog and then just poke around for the time and date that the event happened
[01:06] <narfmaster> "No manual entry for strftime"
[01:07] <jrib> narfmaster: oh, you need manpages-dev
[01:07] <ompaul> phire, you will need sudo or sudo -i to play with some of the files in there
[01:07] <narfmaster> jrib, okay
[01:07] <kuzmaster>  how do install vmware workstation
[01:07] <kuzmaster> i have downloaded and extracted the .tar.qz, and now dont know what to do
[01:07] <[Wiebel] > hmmmmm
[01:07] <[Wiebel] > still no linux-dri-modules-2.6.15-26-686
[01:08] <kuzmaster> can someone please help me
[01:08] <lfalkenb> hi
[01:08] <phire> the last message i get is localhost modprobe: WARNING: Not loading blacklisted module ipv6
[01:09] <gnube> kuzmaster, There is excellent documentation that comes with the VMware tool
[01:09] <kuzmaster> ok
[01:09] <narfmaster> kuzmaster, doesn't that come with support?
[01:10] <gnube> kuzmaster, Plus they have good documentation online
[01:10] <lfalkenb> jep - i just got vmware back running today after kernelupdate
[01:10] <gnube> kuzmaster, I have downloaded it but have not run it yet so I cannot get you help.
[01:10] <kuzmaster> ok
[01:10] <gnube> s/get/give/
[01:10] <kuzmaster> ok, so would it be the vmware-install.pl?
[01:10] <kuzmaster> if so how do i run that
[01:10] <gnube> kuzmaster, No, that is a perl script.
[01:10] <kuzmaster> hmm
[01:11] <kuzmaster> would something like perl vmware-install.pl work?
[01:11] <gnube> kuzmaster, That will probably install the VMware player or whatever it was you downloaded.
[01:11] <lfalkenb> just give the file access by all and run it from a console ./vmware-install.pl
[01:11] <gnube> kuzmaster, You should really, really read the docs first.
[01:11] <phire> Does anyone know what this message from my syslog means? localhost kernel: [4305820.754000]  NVRM: Xid: 6, PE0000 0404 00fb01f1 00000000 00cccc99 00fb01f1
[01:12] <lfalkenb> everything else is described within the install script
[01:12] <lfalkenb> @phire: no, sorry
[01:14] <narfmaster> jrib, this is handy, thanks :)
[01:15] <jrib> narfmaster: np
[01:16] <rixth> phire, my guess is that it is info about NV RAM
[01:16] <kuzmaster> lfalkenb, to remove vmware player, can i do that via adept?
[01:17] <phire> rixth Nvidia?
[01:17] <hyperstream> wpasupplicant exited with return code 1?
[01:17] <rixth> phire, nope, Non-Volatile Random Access Memory
[01:17] <lz1gjd> is there a ubuntu package for gimmie to try out ?
[01:17] <rixth> Basically RAM that doesn't loose its data after power off. Often holds CMOS data.
[01:18] <Asaga> Hello, can someone help me out?
[01:18] <snowblink> !ask
[01:18] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:18] <phire> rixth, so would it be the first message when booting, or something about why it crashed
[01:18] <Asaga> oh
[01:18] <krism> Asaga : just ask the question in channel so if someone knows they can help
[01:18] <Asaga> :P
[01:18] <Asaga> okay uh
[01:18] <krism> argh. !ask was a whole lot shorter than that
[01:18] <Asaga> I just got a new DVD drive and i wanted to try out linux
[01:18] <Asaga> but i'm worried if it's permanent
[01:19] <rixth> phire, don't know sorry, I only what what nvram is
[01:19] <snowblink> Asaga, if you run the live cd it is not
[01:19] <Asaga> also, are we able to run linux even if we dont have a spare hard drive?
[01:19] <Asaga> i only have one
[01:20] <narfmaster> Asaga, i only have one :)
[01:20] <krism> Asaga : yes, you can partition it, resize it, or just run from the livecd ;)
[01:20] <narfmaster> it only has Linux on it, though
[01:20] <Hemebond> Does anyone have some time to help me update my Nvidia drivers?
[01:20] <ompaul> Asaga, you can try it - it is slow from the DVD
[01:20] <Asaga> so, this live CD, it's able to boot up using the disk?
[01:20] <rixth> !tell Hemebond about nvidia
[01:20] <ompaul> !nvidia > Hemebond
[01:20] <lightstar> !rhythmbox
[01:20] <Asaga> well, i wasnt going to get the DVD version
[01:20] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[01:20] <Asaga> but the DVD has a burner
[01:20] <ompaul> Hemebond, please read the note from ubotu

[01:20] <phire> rixth, there is a gap of 33 second between that message, and Inspecting /boot/system.map
[01:20] <Asaga> my old DVD drive was dead
[01:20] <rixth> ompaul, what's with the new triggers?
[01:21] <ompaul> Asaga, that is not a problem it is also a player you can use a live CD
[01:21] <lightstar> anyone here having problems with playing mp3 on rhythmbox but can play it on xmms?
[01:21] <Asaga> so if i use the live CD, where do all the applications i install go?
[01:21] <ompaul> Asaga, or DVD :-)
[01:21] <Hemebond> rixth: I have read those. I tried to update them already following instructions (in the ubuntu forums) but X fails to start.
[01:21] <ompaul> you don't install they them are sitting in ram
[01:21] <jrib> !mp3 > lightstar
[01:21] <phire> Asaga, into the ram
[01:21] <rixth> !mp3 > lightstar

[01:21] <Asaga> hm...
[01:21] <ompaul> rixth, ubotu is a new bot
[01:21] <Asaga> sorry, i'm really new to linux
[01:21] <Asaga> but it really sounds simple
[01:21] <rixth> Why did they have to medle with a good thing =(
[01:21] <krism> there should really be a FAQ with asaga's questions somewhere.. if there isn't one created already.
[01:21] <ompaul> Asaga, it is
[01:22] <lightstar> jrib, rixth installed the entire gstreamer-* stuff..still cant get it 2 work...already visited the restrictedformat link
[01:22] <Asaga> so i can safely use linux on my windows computer?
[01:22] <ompaul> rixth, its old code was perl and rubbish it is now python
[01:22] <krism> lightstar : which gstreamer stuff did you install specifically?
[01:22] <lightstar> jrib, rixth but strangely xmms can play it..even in nautilus
[01:22] <lightstar> krism, gstreamer-plugins ..i made sure gstreamer-mad was there as well
[01:22] <Asaga> 5 hours till i have ubuntu 6.06
[01:22] <Asaga> >.>
[01:23] <krism> lightstar : try installing "gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3" is what i had to do
[01:23] <jrib> lightstar: are you using dapper?
[01:23] <lz1gjd> i've been wondering why gstreamer plugins are called bad and ugly ? any ideas ?
[01:23] <ompaul> Asaga, you are not understanding it at all. It is an alternative to windows, you can install it, if you have enough room, on the same drive as windows, or you can take it for a test drive with a live cd - you can keep data from that live CD on a usbstick if you want
[01:23] <lightstar> jrib, yeap..on dapper...krism, trying it now
[01:23] <billy> COMPLETE NOOB REQUIRING ATI DRIVER HELP
[01:23] <Hemebond> rixth: Also, the install method listed on that page installs older drivers.
[01:23] <ompaul> !caps
[01:23] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:23] <fries> Why is it that when I am in CLI login every few minutes the splash login comes up again?
[01:23] <Hemebond> rixth: I'm trying to install new binaries downloaded from the Nvidia website.
[01:24] <rixth> I'd stay away from those.
[01:24] <feydin> hi, whats the difference between amd64-k8 and amd64-generic?
[01:24] <billy> i need to install ati drivers on ubuntu dont know where to get 'em
[01:24] <fries> krism: :(
[01:24] <ompaul> !ati > billy
[01:24] <princoxl> oi
[01:24] <Asaga> I have enough room to install it, and that will require partitioning it right?
[01:24] <billy> ja
[01:24] <fries> !fglrx
[01:24] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:24] <ompaul> billy, read the web pages from the bot - ubotu
[01:24] <Hemebond> rixth: I followed http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368 and everything went fine until it tried to start.
[01:24] <arejensen> fries: do you mean gdm ?
[01:25] <fries> arejensen, well I use Kubuntu, but I mean the GUI login.
[01:25] <lightstar> krism, thx..tat method works;)
[01:26] <Asaga> thank's for your help
[01:26] <arejensen> fries: you probably have kdm running as a deamon in the background. it'll check to see if x is running in intervals and start itself up if it isn't.
[01:26] <billy> Thanks really helped
[01:26] <lfalkenb> has anyone experience with pptp and ipsec vpn's?
[01:26] <billy> "ill probably be a regular whiner here for a while"

[01:27] <haakonn> hi, i'm trying to install dapper on a dell inspiron 1150 (a few years old now), and it consitently hangs at 44% remaining. i've tried removing the wifi card (pcmcia) and booting with "noapic", but it still hangs. any ideas for things i can try?
[01:27] <timonator> i am really desperate now, on the livecd i get internet connection without a problem. in the installation i can only use the internet during a short period after i push the reset button in the back of the modem and waiting for a few seconds
[01:28] <timonator> both the installation and the livecd have the same network connection (dhcp)
[01:28] <SonicChao> Hello, I noticed something really weird happened with my computer this morning, I turned it on and it said "Mounted hda1 30 times without checking, forcing check" and then Ubuntu loaded. Is this normal?
[01:28] <oz2> hello
[01:28] <timonator> SonicChao: that is normal
[01:28] <timonator> its not weird, read the fsck manual page
[01:29] <oz2> my pc freezes after I insert a PCMCIA card. is any1 familiar with that on Dapper ?
[01:29] <SonicChao> timonator: Ok, thanks, I was a little worried when the splash screen dissappeared and that appeared
[01:29] <kuzmaster> when i try to install the vmware workstation, it says this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17818 . i have uninstalled all the vmware things in adept, and when i run the perl script, its still saying that vmware player is installed
[01:29] <Ng> SonicChao: after a certain number of mounts, or a certain time without remounting, it will check the full filesystem just to ensure that no errors are creeping in
[01:30] <kuzmaster> can someone please help me
[01:30] <Ng> SonicChao: both numbers can be changed with tune2fs, if you want to :)
[01:30] <kuzmaster> anyone, PLEASE!!!!!
[01:30] <SonicChao> Ng: :), sorry, it scared the heck out of me
[01:30] <SonicChao> !patience > kuzmaster
[01:30] <Ng> SonicChao: hehe, it should probably be presented in a slightly less scary way ;)
[01:31] <SonicChao> Ng: Hehe....
[01:32] <johlin> I have libsdl1.2-dev installed, but still qemu ./configure says that it needs SDL or cocoa for graphical output. Why?
[01:32] <jrib> is the output of 'dircolors -p' from a file somewhere on my system or is it built into dircolors?
[01:33] <jrib> !qemu
[01:33] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[01:33] <compengi> i have dns vhosts how can i use them in psybnc?
[01:33] <Hemebond> Has nobody installed 64bit drivers from the Nvidia website?
[01:34] <narfmaster> johlin, maybe you need libsdl-gfx1.2-dev
[01:34] <feydin> anyone knows, what "base-config" configures?
[01:35] <johlin> narfmaster: that one is installed too.
[01:35] <feydin> need to know this, b/ i make a fakeraid installation... under breezy i just started "base-config" at the end
[01:35] <feydin> but in dapper base-config ist deprecated
[01:36] <feydin> so i need to know what base-config exactly does
[01:37] <hyperstream> anyone here managed to get there wireless network card working with wpa?
[01:38] <axisme> yes
[01:38] <mike__> what
[01:38] <compengi> i have dns vhosts how can i use them in psybnc?
[01:39] <hyperstream> axisme,  how ?
[01:40] <axisme> hyperstream, sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[01:40] <lz1gjd> is there an ubuntu gimmie package available for download ?
[01:40] <compengi> i have server from which i distribute shells, but what i need to know is how to make or from where to get dns vhosts that users can use them in psybnc, and how to setup them?
[01:41] <njan> compengi, if you're running a shellserver and you don't know how to do that, you're in trouble
[01:41] <Acill> I may be crazy here, but I am attempting to get networking working in MaconLinux, I have OS X tiger installed and booting fine, the problem is I think the molk kernal I use (custom mol /linux kernal) is hard coded to use eth0 someplace. I changed all the scripts to use eth2 and it wont get an IP from my router like that
[01:41] <njan> compengi, shellservers are *not* something you want to enter into lightly, and you *need* to understand how they work, and more importantly, how to secure them.
[01:41] <compengi> njan, the server is still underconstruction i'm not distributing at the moment i'm testing it
[01:42] <njan> compengi, security isn't something you add on when you figure it out, it's something you work into the build of your server and business plan in the first place.
[01:42] <hyperstream> axisme,  how do you start it?
[01:42] <axisme> hyperstream, best to logout and back in
[01:43] <forngren> What's the differnce between the CD and DVD release? I doesn't quite get it :(
[01:43] <Acill> if I use eth0 it will, only it soesnt seem to support the chipset on nthat port. On everyother Pegasos machine eth0 is the via_rhine port, and eth1 is the other one thats not supported. Mine is eth2 (via) and etho. Can I force lilnux to make the numbers switch so wth0 is the one I need it to be?
[01:43] <hyperstream> kk
[01:43] <hyperstream> brb
[01:43] <compengi> njan, security is not a problem, but what i want to learn is how to setup dns vhosts and let them work for psybnc
[01:43] <orbin> lz1gjd: can't find anything in the official repos
[01:44] <narfmaster> forngren, the DVD has the entire main repo - the CD just has the stuff you need
[01:44] <Acill> so anyway to make it simple can I assign eth0 to another ethernet port at all, or reset what it gets by itself somehow so its like it shold be?
[01:45] <Acill> I think it got these numbers because I had a PCI nic installed before.
[01:46] <roshan_s> Whil: How is VMWare Player working?
[01:46] <forngren> narfmaster: what? does the DVD contain more packages?
[01:46] <narfmaster> forngren, yes and it lets you use any installer mode
[01:46] <forngren> ok, thx ^^

[01:52] <mouse> Can someone telll me, is yahoo/sbc dsl down right now?
[01:52] <vorbote> kakalto: xlibs is not part of modular Xorg anymore.

[01:52] <kakalto> ah.
[01:52] <oobiloz> hi peeps
[01:52] <kakalto> well, the cedega deb 5.1 requires it
[01:52] <oobiloz> can someone help me with ICS using Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[01:52] <kakalto> =/
[01:52] <SonicChao> mouse: Um...why? Has it worked on Ubuntu before?
[01:52] <vorbote> kakalto: you may need to update your cedega instaler
[01:53] <SonicChao> oobiloz: Please ask the real question. :)
[01:53] <mouse> SonicChao,  this is not an ubuntu question, it is a "SBC seems to have stopped working"
[01:53] <kakalto> vorbote: it's just a .deb package
[01:53] <dao777> been running debian for years, just installed ubuntu .. everything worked fine under installer, but on reboot usb mouse and sound don't work. what does ubuntu use for autodetection?
[01:53] <kakalto> vorbote: I install it with dpkg -i
[01:53] <amit> any one can help me in eGroupware????//
[01:53] <roshan_s> kakalto: libx11-dev?
[01:53] <willdev101> :( no help :(
[01:53] <oobiloz> sonicchao: I'm trying to share my internet connection on my ubuntu pc through a wireless card, onto an XP laptop
[01:53] <SonicChao> mouse: I know that, but I was wondering if it worked on Ubuntu BEFORE.
[01:53] <vorbote> kakalto: you could try doing surgery on the package, with the dpkg-dev utilities...
[01:53] <oobiloz> I have tried Firestarter (didnt work) and a few masquerade commands. (still didnt owkr)
[01:53] <SonicChao> mouse: Because, it could be an ubuntu problem, but i guess not
[01:54] <Shinzetsu> Since I installed a new HDD, I cannot install Ubuntu. My PC locks up when the installation begins, though the Live CD works just ifne
[01:54] <mouse> SonicChao, I h........screw this.l Thanks for the always-usefull advice #ubuntu
[01:54] <roshan_s> kakalto: xlibs is now called libx11
[01:54] <kakalto> roshan_s: ah.
[01:54] <kakalto> vorbote: might as well
[01:55] <forngren> How big are the performance drwabacks when using an i318-install on an amd64-computer?
[01:55] <YoussefAssad> hello people. I was wondering what any more experienced palm/linux users would recommend for palm-linux syncing
[01:55] <da_putzler> sonicchao: I'm trying to share my internet connection on my ubuntu pc through a wireless card, onto an XP laptop
[01:56] <dao777> mako: what up!
[01:56] <SonicChao> da_putzler: Sorry...I dont exactly know, I just wanted you to say the question so others can help :)
[01:56] <kakalto> vorbote: don't suppose you could tell me how? ;)
[01:56] <da_putzler> oh, ok...
[01:57] <Enverex> Yay, got 3D Accelleration working with my Mobility Radeon
[01:57] <da_putzler> Has ANYONE actually gotten Ubuntu to share an internet connection properly ??? (without a router) ???
[01:57] <hwt> is the alternate-installer availabe on the "retail" ubuntu-cds?
[01:57] <willdev101> how do i change the default res in recovery mode?
[01:57] <hwt> or do i have to download and burn the -alternate image?
[01:57] <jrib> hwt: you have to download it I believe
[01:57] <willdev101> enverex how?
[01:58] <maatttt> hi all
[01:58] <dao777> da_putzler: sorry missed the background, but have you looked into packages like hostap?
[01:58] <da_putzler> hostap ?
[01:58] <Enverex> Turns out the latest drivers break the mobility 9000 and you have to copy a library from the old drivers over it then it works perfectly
[01:58] <Enverex> So ATi's fault, heh
[01:58] <dao777> da_putzler: problem is not so much with ubuntu as running your wireless card as an access point
[01:58] <Shinzetsu> Since I installed a new HDD, I cannot install Ubuntu. My PC locks up when the installation begins, though the Live CD works just fine.
[01:58] <SeraVitae> anyone know if gparted is installed onto dapper livecd?
[01:58] <Enverex> Or rather broke most/all of the mobility radeons
[01:59] <SeraVitae> i cant modify partitions because it's the boot drive
[01:59] <maatttt> I've just added a samba share, but when I try to connect from xp, it ask for id/password over and over.  I'm using the right combo.  is there another step to configuring samba ?
[01:59] <dao777> da_putzler: and not every wireless card can work in AP mode (XP or ubuntu or whatever)
[01:59] <da_putzler> dao: AP mode ??? huh
[01:59] <narfmaster> SeraVitae, gparted should be on the live CD
[01:59] <SeraVitae> ok, ill try it then narf.
[02:00] <dao777> da_putzler: to run your card as an Access Point rather than a client etc
[02:00] <krism> maatttt : have you set up a user with "smbpasswd" ?
[02:00] <goubuntu> how would i edit bind9 to send a request for www.google.com to www.google.co.uk ??
[02:00] <maatttt> ah, nope.
[02:00] <krism> maatttt : samba doesnt (by default) use the linux username/password
[02:00] <willdev101> hmm
[02:00] <willdev101> doesnt anyone know how to get to xorg via the recovery mode?
[02:00] <SeraVitae> hm after this i might install fluxbox on ubuntu. mmm, so tight and clean
[02:00] <da_putzler> dao: using XP I'm using an ad-hoc network to share internet access and files to other laptops
[02:00] <orbin> forngren: you mean i386?  not much aiui.  a few things don't work w/ 64 iirc
[02:00] <da_putzler> dao: and if XP can do this, I'm sure as hell Ubuntu can too... I just dunno how
[02:00] <wildman> goubuntu, isn't redirection automatically performed by google anymore?
[02:00] <krism> maatttt : it's pretty straightforward - just run "smbpasswd username" and enter a password.
[02:01] <goubuntu> wildman: not the point :P i will need to do it for multiple addresses
[02:01] <compengi> sudo chmod -R o-rw how to remove it?
[02:01] <kumar_physics> I have problem in keyboad layout ,when I shift frm gb to de , only one key takes the old value(I coulnt find < > in de keyboard)Help me plz
[02:01] <wildman> goubuntu, oh :P
[02:01] <roshan_s> willdev101: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:01] <willdev101> then can i edit the res from in there?
[02:02] <usama> jrib: hi, sorry forgot that i am in irc also, yes i know the location of the song but i wanna check the beagle
[02:02] <roshan_s> willdev101: What was the problem?
[02:02] <jrib> usama: where is it?
[02:02] <dao777> da_putzler: try searching "<model of wireless card> ad-hoc debian"
[02:02] <kumar_physics> I have problem in keyboad layout ,when I shift frm gb to de , only one key takes the old value(I coulnt find < > in de keyboard)Help me plz
[02:02] <dao777> if not ubuntu
[02:02] <dao777> or "debian OR ubuntu"
[02:03] <willdev101> i have just installed the ati drivers via this guide : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI when i try and boot into it now it says on the moniter "out of range" then goes into stand by
[02:03] <da_putzler> dao: I have the wireless card setup and working great... it's just the internet sharing part I need sorted
[02:03] <forngren> orbin:  I meant i386 :$ Yeah, I know that some stuff don't work very well under AMD64, that's why I wondered how much drawbacks there would be...
[02:03] <goubuntu> how would i edit bind9 to send a request for www.google.com to www.google.co.uk ??
[02:03] <usama> jrib: its in the music folder in my home dir
[02:03] <compengi> sudo chmod -R o-rw how to remove it?
[02:04] <roshan_s> willdev101: Do you know the resolution and refresh rate you normally run the monitor at?
[02:04] <kumar_physics> I have problem in keyboad layout ,when I shift frm gb to de , only one key still takes the old value(I coulnt find < > in de keyboard)Help me plz
[02:04] <maatttt> krism: woo, thanks.  I still googles to find how/why this step is needed, but thanks.
[02:04] <usama> compengi: replace minus with plus
[02:04] <willdev101> sadly not its an old crt in windows i used to have 1024x782
[02:04] <willdev101> but dont know the refresh
[02:04] <dao777> da_putzler: right, great. but you need it to run in *ad-hoc* mode. then you need to *bridge* the wireless and ethernet interfaces.
[02:04] <tomcatt> has anyone load ubuntu on those ultra mobile computers yet?
[02:04] <roshan_s> willdev101: How big is the monitor?
[02:05] <jrib> usama: hmm is beagle finding other things?
[02:05] <da_putzler> dao: like I said, the wireless card is setup and working great, ad-hoc mode enabled... I just need to know HOW to bridge the gap and share internet
[02:05] <compengi> usama, chmod: invalid mode: `+R'
[02:05] <da_putzler> Firestarter is supposed to do it in a few clicks, but it doesnt work
[02:05] <orbin> forngren: well judging by this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=206405 ... there isn't really much of a compromise
[02:05] <willdev101> roshan_s: Dont know that ither :( i just got this moniter from a mate as i dident have one
[02:05] <dao777> da_putzler: so learn about linux bridging. may requre kernel recompile.
[02:06] <da_putzler> dao: dude... I just need help with masquerade commands... am a newbie to linux, am NOT gonna recompile kernel
[02:06] <da_putzler> if u cant help , just say so. it's kewl
[02:06] <oz2> I am trying again. I desperate of operating a WiFi PCMCIA under dapper, can anyone help ?
[02:06] <usama> compengi: no, i mean o+rw
[02:07] <roshan_s> willdev101: Can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[02:07] <vorbote_> da_putzler: you don't need to recompile a kernel. You need to instll the bridge utilities and read the Linux Advance Routing manual (http://lartc.org/)
[02:07] <roshan_s> da_putzler: look at the dnsmasq package
[02:07] <willdev101> im not that computer :(
[02:07] <dao777> da_putzler: whatev dude, i'm telling you it's not masquerade but bridging.
[02:07] <dao777> &
[02:08] <roshan_s> willdev101: Please run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:09] <willdev101> right its runing
[02:09] <willdev101> configuring the xserver xorg
[02:09] <roshan_s> willdev101: When it asks for the driver, select fglrx
[02:10] <roshan_s> dao777: da_putzler: Bridging doesn't require recompiling the kernel
[02:10] <willdev101> please enter the video cards bus identifier
[02:11] <willdev101> its a ATI RADEON X300
[02:11] <da_putzler> roshan: are you sharing your internet ok?
[02:11] <roshan_s> willdev101: Just leave the default answers to all questions until it gets to the bit about screen resolution
[02:11] <tomcatt> has anyone load ubuntu on those ultra mobile computers yet?
[02:11] <forngren> orbin: thanks man!
[02:11] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Yes I am. I have a DSL modem and I'm sharing my internet over Bluetooth and LAN
[02:12] <da_putzler> roshan: and you used bridging ?? do you have a guide or site please#
[02:12] <SeraVitae> OH SHIT
[02:12] <roshan_s> da_putzler: I don't. Do you have a DSL modem or router?
[02:12] <SeraVitae> omfg my whole ubuntu install just segfaulted using gparted!!!!!!!
[02:12] <da_putzler> I have a cable modem
[02:13] <compengi> usama, Cannot write to `psyBNC-2.3.2-7.tar.gz' (Permission denied).
[02:13] <compengi> usama, still the same problem
[02:13] <roshan_s> da_putzler: You connect to it using an Ethernet card? What kind of configuration (if any) did you have to do to connect to it on your main computer?
[02:13] <SeraVitae> oh no now my terminal is frozen
[02:13] <SeraVitae> wtf is going on
[02:13] <usama> compengi: add sudo before the command
[02:13] <compengi> usama, i did
[02:14] <linrunix> hi, all
[02:14] <da_putzler> roshan: when I had XP installed, I set the wireless card to a static ip, set it to ad-hoc and shared internet and file access over card... I cant seem to do this on ubuntu
[02:14] <usama> compengi: then login by root account and do what you want
[02:14] <hyperstream> axisme, didnt work
[02:14] <hyperstream> :/
[02:14] <hyperstream> and ndiswrapper isnt auto loading
[02:15] <compengi> usama, i'm a root, but i have a friend that i made him a user but he can't do anything
[02:15] <hyperstream> [4296298.344000]  wlan0: ndiswrapper ethernet device 00:0f:b5:3d:7e:d7 using driver netwg11t, 1385:4250.F.conf [4296298.344000]  wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with WPA; AES/CCMP with WPA
[02:15] <roshan_s> da_putzler: That's quite easy, but I need to know whether you have Internet access on your Ubuntu computer, and if so, how you configured it. Then I can tell you how to share access over the wireless link
[02:15] <usama> when i give command "sudo make menuconfig" i receive the error "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses"
[02:15] <hyperstream> how can i use ndiswrapper to user wpa ?
[02:15] <roshan_s> willdev101: Are you still there?
[02:15] <willdev101> w00t
[02:15] <da_putzler> roshan: ubuntu has full internet access through lan0 which is connected straight to the cable modem... my wireless card is ra0
[02:16] <willdev101> working
[02:16] <roshan_s> willdev101: It works?
[02:16] <willdev101> yeah
[02:16] <willdev101> yup
[02:16] <hyperstream> da_putzler, i got the same issue
[02:16] <usama> compengi: are you doing that in ntfs drive?
[02:16] <willdev101> im in the desktop now
[02:16] <willdev101> thanks :)
[02:16] <compengi> usama, lol
[02:16] <axisme> hyperstream, you don't see a new icon in the top right hand corner?
[02:16] <hyperstream> trying to use ndis and trying to get wpa working
[02:16] <hyperstream> nope
[02:16] <compengi> usama, of course no
[02:16] <axisme> ok open a terminal
[02:16] <SeraVitae> is there any easy way to get fsck to run on next bootup or something, i *know* my filesystem is damaged
[02:17] <hyperstream> yes
[02:17] <axisme> type in nm-applet &&
[02:17] <axisme> what does it say
[02:18] <usama> compengi: will you tel me the exact command you put?
[02:18] <hyperstream> the Network manager applet could not find some required resources it cannot continue
[02:18] <hyperstream> ill write out the terminal
[02:18] <compengi> usama, what command
[02:18] <axisme> oh hmm
[02:18] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Can you pastebin the output of route -n on your Ubuntu box
[02:18] <axisme> in some cases it needs something else...let me see
[02:18] <hyperstream> ** (nm-applet:6642): WARNING **: Icon nm-vpn-lock missing: Icon 'nm-vpn-lock' no t present in theme

[02:19] <roshan_s> willdev101: You're welcome
[02:19] <da_putzler> roshan: I would but am using XP just now so my wife can get online also, sorry dude
[02:19] <NetwrkMonkey> Is there an issue in ubuntu server with clock creep? seems my time is slowly creeping up in minutes
[02:19] <zybrid> anyone knows why the FreeNX doesnt work with XGL? the client that is, all icons are gone when using XGL on client.
[02:19] <snowblink> NetwrkMonkey, vmware?
[02:19] <NetwrkMonkey> nope
[02:19] <hyperstream> thats when i run nm-applet
[02:19] <usama> compengi: dont you give the command "sudo chmod -R o-rw some_dir"
[02:19] <hyperstream> && just gives me alot of new lines etc
[02:20] <compengi> usama, yes
[02:20] <axisme> hyperstream, try sudo apt-get install gnome-applets
[02:20] <compengi> usama, i did what you told me to sudo chmod -R o+rw some_dir
[02:20] <roshan_s> da_putzler: I'll tell you the general process: You need to install the bridge-utils package
[02:21] <da_putzler> ok
[02:21] <snowblink> NetwrkMonkey, use ntp?
[02:21] <NetwrkMonkey> yup
[02:21] <usama> compengi: then it should not say "permission denied" until the filesystem is mounted in read-mode
[02:21] <NetwrkMonkey> utc is set to no
[02:22] <NetwrkMonkey> actually, hrm, no i'm not
[02:22] <NetwrkMonkey> i thought i was running it
[02:22] <axisme> hyperstream, also do a sudo apt-get install hicolor-icon-theme
[02:22] <vieirar> Good MOrning, I am using Dapper and when I look at my memory usuage I see that I am using 300MB of both physical memory and swap. I have 2Gb of physical memory. Why is swap being used when I still have memory available?
[02:22] <soniccol> I have a problem ...... my network speed in ubuntu is pretty slow , but in windows is in normal speed . How can I fix it ?
[02:23] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Then you need to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file. Find the block corresponding to you LAN connection (probably eth0). Then replace all occurences of eth0 with br0. Then add a line just below that stanza saying "bridge_ports eth0 ra0"
[02:23] <hyperstream> same error
[02:23] <roshan_s> da_putzler: I'll pastebin how it looks on my setup
[02:23] <axisme> logout and backin again
[02:23] <da_putzler> thx roshan
[02:23] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Is your cable modem actually a router? Does it automatically hand out IP addresses
[02:24] <da_putzler> nope, 1 random ip address coming in straight from the cable modem
[02:24] <da_putzler> but my wireless has a static ip
[02:25] <hyperstream> its not a router
[02:25] <hyperstream> :P
[02:25] <compengi> usama, i opened properties on file system and went on to permissions they are all marked on read for all(owner,group,other)
[02:25] <cr3> weofijaki;;
[02:26] <roshan_s> da_putzler: What is your computer's IP address right now, in Windows?
[02:27] <hyperstream> axisme,  any idea's ?
[02:27] <da_putzler> em, I dunno how to check...
[02:27] <da_putzler> 80.x.x.x something like that
[02:27] <axisme> hyperstream, nope...that worked for me
[02:27] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Open a command prompt and pastebin the output of "ipconfig /all"
[02:27] <axisme> i assume your wireless is working to begin with
[02:28] <da_putzler> 80.40.197.231
[02:28] <SeraVitae> why the hell would intel *only* release linux drivers for my video card for SuSE linux only? this is so unfair.
[02:28] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Sorry that's "ipconfig /a" I think. My windows skills are rusty
[02:28] <daziel_> Please a list ubuntu brazil?
[02:28] <da_putzler> it worked tho, I pasted the ip above
[02:29] <roshan_s> da_putzler: It would be useful if you could paste the entire output
[02:29] <axisme> hypersstream, have the normal network-manager as well?
[02:30] <axisme> sudo apt-get install network-manager
[02:30] <da_putzler> did u see
[02:30] <roshan_s> da_putzler: See what?
[02:30] <Jack12> hi who works with xsane??
[02:31] <Jack12>  can i just copy images with xsane (scan and print ) as one action?
[02:31] <da_putzler> it wont let me paste dude
[02:31] <roshan_s> !pastebin > da_putzler
[02:32] <da_putzler> heres the output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17821
[02:33] <luis> bom dia
[02:34] <roshan_s> da_putzler: That bridge thing I told you won't work. You need to do IP masquerading. For that you need the dnsmasq package as I said earlier.
[02:34] <beerfan> Anyone know if Gnubiff will be updated in universe any time soon?
[02:35] <dao777> since reboot from fresh install i've got perl: warning: setting locale failed
[02:35] <dngldoof> my external USB hard disk disappears completely from 'my computer' after a couple hours of use.. Anyone got similar problems?
[02:35] <da_putzler> roshan: I've done this: edit /etc/sysctl.conf as root, and uncomment the line with "net/ipv4/ip_forward"
[02:35] <da_putzler> iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -src 192.168.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
[02:36] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Very good. What was the result?
[02:36] <da_putzler> it didnt work
[02:36] <da_putzler> laptop still couldnt get internet
[02:36] <nevyn> SeraVitae: what vid card?
[02:37] <roshan_s> Does the laptop use a static IP address?
[02:37] <da_putzler> yes... 192.168.0.3 is the laptop ip
[02:37] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Can it ping your desktop PC?
[02:37] <da_putzler> nope ..but.. the wireless cards connect ok... that was the strange thing
[02:38] <emPol`ka>      ?
[02:38] <roshan_s> da_putzler: What is your PCs IP address on the wireless card?
[02:38] <da_putzler> roshan: 192.168.0.3
[02:38] <da_putzler> ohsorry, that's the laptop
[02:38] <emPol`ka> da_putzler my
[02:38] <da_putzler> the pc ip on wireless is 192.168.0.1
[02:38] <roshan_s> da_putzler: I'm talking about the desktop PC? .0.3 is your laptop's address, isn't it?
[02:39] <emPol`ka> girl ??
[02:39] <da_putzler> .01
[02:39] <emPol`ka> girls ??
[02:39] <roshan_s> da_putzler: What happens when you ping 192.168.0.1 from the laptop?
[02:39] <da_putzler> nothing
[02:39] <da_putzler> timeout
[02:39] <zybrid> what is the simplest and best way to encrypt my second harddrive? I love truecrypt in windows but it seems that it doesnt support ext3 filesystem in linux? There are so many different encrypt-ways and howto :(
[02:39] <Dr_Sato> emPol'ka:  You are
[02:40] <roshan_s> da_putzler: Is that on Windows on Linuz?
[02:40] <nevyn> zybrid: best can't be simplest
[02:40] <da_putzler> the laptop is using xp
[02:41] <crazy4ubuntu> hi
[02:41] <zybrid> nevyn: ok, a good way that is simple then?
[02:41] <j2ee_dodo> hi guys, my 1st time here :)
[02:41] <roshan_s> da_putzler: That means your wireless link isn't functional on Linux
[02:41] <crazy4ubuntu>  I have installation of ubuntu, but I want to make clean install of ubuntu, but I have to make it from the HD, can any1 help ? pls
[02:42] <da_putzler> roshan: but the wireless cards both see and acknowledge each other with 100% signal...
[02:42] <goubuntu> Could not save the file /etc/sudoers. is the error i get after trying to save changes using command sudo gedit /etc/sudoers
[02:43] <roshan_s> da_putzler: On Linux, did you give the card a static IP address by going to System > Admin > Networking?
[02:43] <Dr_Sato> Uhm... I'm trying to apt-get install bum. But it isn't in the repositories it states :(. I wonder why I didn't change a thing with the repository settings
[02:43] <Dr_Sato> Anyone an idea?
[02:43] <j2ee_dodo> hi what tool in ubuntu can I use to check what port is open and running whatever??
[02:43] <da_putzler> roshan: yes, and also editing /etc/network/interfaces and adding the last new lines to enable ad-hoc etc
[02:43] <POVaddct> da_putzler: do you use any kind of encryption (wep, wpa, ...) on the wireless link?
[02:44] <emPol`ka> NickaNicka
[02:45] <roshan_s> da_putzler: So you're sure the wifi link is configured. Does it show in ifconfig?
[02:45] <da_putzler> yes

[02:46] <roshan_s> da_putzler: I'm afraid I can't help you with the wireless card, since I don't have one. Once you can ping between the two computers, its easy. I'm terribly sorry, but you'll have to ask someone else for help

[02:47] <ubotu> smart is another meta-package manager available for Ubuntu. It's quite stable, uses APT's repositories, can handle mirrors/multiple-connections, and is supposed to make Ubuntu BiArch-compatible for Edgy. See http://labix.org/smart and https://wiki.kubuntu.org/SmartPackageManager
[02:49] <feugan3333>  /s/php-cig/php-cgi/
[02:50] <goblimey> how do i find out precisely what driver (and version) is being used for usb wireless on rausb0 ?
[02:51] <feugan3333> Nobody use php :-)
[02:51] <erUSUL> goblimey: maybe in the dmesg the driver says something...
[02:52] <goblimey> thx erUSUL checking now
[02:55] <martii> I had my dapper / on hd(0,1) and grub worked fine
[02:55] <martii> I moved / to hd1,1 and after upgrade of kernel my manualy edited config is overwriten with initial values hd0,1
[02:56] <martii> where is information about initial (instalation) values for grub?
[02:57] <erUSUL> goblimey: ex this is what i see in my dmesg --> rt2500 1.1.0 CVS 2005/07/10 http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
[02:58] <goblimey> erUSUL, hmm mine has "rausb0 (WE) : Driver using old /proc/net/wireless support, please fix driver !"
[02:58] <CGA> hi all =) && i have some problems after the upgrade from breeszy to dapper (the automatic upgrade). wonderful idea and tool but when it comes to practice it sucks. it has borked my system and uninstalled few applications.  anyone had the same bad experience as mine?  (i don't want to be mean in saying this. my english sucks)
[02:59] <sztanpet_> is there any quanta like web developer for gnome?
[03:00] <nevyn> hrm
[03:00] <CGA> sztanpet_, vim? :P (try bluefish)
[03:00] <nevyn> bluefish..
[03:00] <sztanpet_> ty :D
[03:00] <nevyn> but quanta is better
[03:00] <nevyn> just use quanta.
[03:00] <gnomefreak> sztanpet_: bluefish nvu
[03:00] <achraf> hello, i need to match this with sed <FEATURE id=FAJ 122 215 rev=R1 state=NOT AVAILABLE> and replace it with <FEATURE id="FAJ 122 215" rev="R1" state="NOT AVAILABLE"> am not really good with regex :S
[03:00] <sztanpet_> nevyn i would, but my net is limited to 2gb a month sadly
[03:01] <nevyn> sztanpet_: get a kubuntu disk shipped to you ;)
[03:01] <sztanpet_> nevyn not a bad idea :D
[03:01] <nevyn> shipit rocks
[03:01] <goblimey> erUSUL, thx again, i'm gonna google around and research some more ;) sugestions still welcome tho
[03:02] <donald> has anyone had problems with latest Kernel software update?
[03:02] <erUSUL> goblimey: nothing, you can go to http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com and l and compile a more recent driver though
[03:03] <nevyn> I got my 6.06 disks today v. dissapointed with the installer on x86_64
[03:03] <nevyn> very buggy with gparted
[03:03] <zybrid> nevyn: havent noticed.
[03:03] <d2812> Quick question. Where I work, I have to test up laptops. Is there a tool on the livecd which I can use to save a hardware compatabillity report, as if I get the okay from my boss, I can run it on each model of laptop i test up.
[03:04] <d2812> however, I may not be able to put it on the network to submit it online.
[03:04] <goblimey> erUSUL, yep , downloaded that , probaly gonna take that route just wanted to check the status quo first
[03:04] <zybrid> lspci
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> how do you turn off gdm?
[03:05] <CGA> d2812, you might want to google for a different distro , try "linux test livecd"
[03:05] <zybrid> Snow_Shelter: apt-get remove gdm
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> zybrid: thanks
[03:05] <Snow_Shelter> is there anyway I can install the server part of ubuntu from a live cd?
[03:05] <martii> !grub
[03:05] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:05] <d2812> well i'm a dapper user at home, I wanted to submit reports to help other possible dapper users
[03:06] <d2812> not for fixing laptops :)
[03:06] <CGA> oh i see
[03:06] <gilianima> how to open a terminal on Mac OS X ?
[03:06] <Snow_Shelter> gilianima: /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
[03:06] <CGA> and most of all: how to run bash on windows?
[03:06] <erUSUL> CGA: with cygwin
[03:07] <rix> hi
[03:07] <Snow_Shelter> hi
[03:07] <haakonn> hmm. i did an 'apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' on a fresh install, and now scrollkeeper-update has been running for 7 minutes on installing vnc... supposed to be like that?
[03:08] <Snow_Shelter> haakonn: trust me, you don't want to kill scroolkeeper-update
[03:08] <haakonn> ah! it just finished :) wow, slow
[03:08] <Snow_Shelter> haakonn: I made the mistake of doing that, and it messed up my whole update
[03:08] <erUSUL> haakonn: yes scrollkeeper can use a lot of resources just like updatedb
[03:08] <haakonn> this laptop is a bit slower than what i'm used to
[03:08] <SeraVitae> Hi there, can someone help me get the resolutions in X that i should have? i just xresprobe and X totally shut down and restarted.
[03:08] <bertu> Hey can someone help me?
[03:08] <erUSUL> !fixres
[03:08] <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
[03:08] <erUSUL> !anyone
[03:08] <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?
[03:09] <SeraVitae> erUSUL - i'll read it, but i've already done a fair bit of debugging. it seems to be an issue with the actual driver, apparently a patch was issued.
[03:09] <rix> i like to know what is the best solution for automatic registration like the online registration that uses provider, i want to register online to my server and with this registration it will be generated an unix account with mail, web, quota, ssh, ftp an the common services, how is that possible with ldap? or i need something else?
[03:09] <frogzoo> looking for a howto on adding new mime types/handlers for gnome, anyone?
[03:09] <bertu> Is is ok that you have files in your hard disk that are not yours that is you cannot earase them and change their permission?
[03:11] <erUSUL> bertu: sure, all the system files and programs should be like that, to avoid that a user mistake ruins the system
[03:11] <pusling> is there kind of ... small breezy server installation images for usbsticks and stuff ?
[03:11] <bertu> but i installed  apache
[03:11] <erUSUL> bertu: with sudo you can shoot yourself in the foot though
[03:11] <SeraVitae> erUSUL - i can't even follow that guide, because xresprobe crashes X, and ddcprobe fails with an error.
[03:11] <bertu> and in the folder www in the folder var....i  can t erase the file i created
[03:12] <kbrosnan> I am looking for some info on how to set up mac address spoofing in ubuntu.
[03:12] <erUSUL> SeraVitae: and a simple dpkg-reconfigure with manual settings for vert. a hor. sync rates does not work?
[03:13] <bertu> So how can i remove the files that i created?
[03:13] <Petaris> Hello
[03:14] <erUSUL> bertu: this is intentional only root and members of www-data afaik can write in that directory (/var/www)
[03:14] <erUSUL> bertu: with sudo
[03:14] <bertu> so what do i write?
[03:14] <Petaris> I need to build or find glibc-2.3.4 for an x86_64 install, I want to install it to /opt/lib/ to satisfy a pesky program
[03:15] <Petaris> First does anyone know where I might find an already build glibc-2.3.4 for x86_64 that I can just modify the path on?
[03:15] <erUSUL> bertu: 'sudo rm /var/www/filetoerase'
[03:15] <Snow_Shelter> w00t! I just accidentally yanked the power to one of my servers...
[03:15] <erUSUL> !commands > bertu
[03:16] <Snow_Shelter> oh well, at least I can install Ubuntu on it now ;)
[03:16] <Petaris> and if not, does anyone know where I might find directions to build it myself?
[03:16] <bertu> 10x
[03:16] <erUSUL> Petaris: if it is already build you can not patch it afaics
[03:16] <Snow_Shelter> old Mandrake was starting to get that 'old geezer' smell
[03:16] <erUSUL> bertu: no problem
[03:17] <Petaris> erUSUL: I meant an already built ubuntu glibc-2.3.4 for x86_64
[03:17] <kthread> hi hi hi
[03:18] <eps> has anyone mentioned anything about a security hole in ubuntu 5.10? we've had a production server at work here basically blown wide open on an almost stock ubuntu 5.10 (w/ security updates) box.  looking through the actions of the attacker they used a dictionary going after default passwords of all service users for linux and we are guessing found a way through on one of them
[03:18] <erUSUL> Petaris: yes i understood but if it is build you can not, and i cite, "that I can  just modify the path on
[03:18] <Petaris> erUSUL: Then I can just rip the debian packaging down and change the path in the rules file and rebuild the deb
[03:18] <narfmaster> eps, someone had a weak password?
[03:19] <davidw> I've got a dell server that has fans that sound like a jet airplane... any packages available to get it to settle down a bit?
[03:19] <erUSUL> Petaris: i do not know... maybe it works but glibc is a core component if you mess this up you can end up with an unusable system
[03:19] <eps> production server...only one service account that we added which had a non standard un (bobby) and an unguessable pw (no brute forcing on the pw)
[03:20] <Petaris> erUSUL: I won't be screwing with the systems glibc-2.3.6 I will just be adding the 2.3.4 to /opt/lib so it shouldn't affect anything, or am I mistaken about this?
[03:21] <Moodles> i'm installing phpsysinfo, and in the config file, it says "to read data from hddtemp, must be set suid".... I don't understand completely, what do I need to do to 'hddtemp'?
[03:21] <rixth> Anyone else having problems getting to gmail?
[03:21] <Petaris> davidw: Those must be the small 10k rpm fans?
[03:21] <frogzoo> Petaris: the linker won't look in /opt/lib unless you tell it to
[03:21] <wildman> rixth, gmail/calendar working fine here...
[03:21] <Crescendo> Is there a tray applet I can add to monitor hardware temperatures?
[03:21] <rixth> Hmm, I get error 766.
[03:21] <davidw> Petaris, you'll have to speak up some... I can hardly hear you;-)  I think so, though, yeah
[03:21] <Crescendo> rixth, both are working for me.
[03:22] <rixth> Crescendo, sure! I know there is one for temps... my laptop had it by default
[03:22] <Petaris> frogzoo: I think I can tdo an LD_PRELOAD for that app
[03:23] <frogzoo> Crescendo: add the 'sensors-applet' package - then add 'hardware sensor' to panel
[03:23] <Petaris> davidw: I believe those are thermastatically controlled, so you probably can't do much with it
[03:23] <SelfHarm> is gaim the best multi-client IM availble?
[03:23] <dr_willis> if it does all you need.. then i guess its best. :)
[03:23] <chris08> hi there - if have a problem with dapper: I just updated the kernel, no I no longer have vmware-player available for installation
[03:23] <dr_willis> if it dont.. then its not.
[03:23] <Cheradenine> ive just installed wine and when running winecfg i click the audio tab it fails with an error saying "ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[03:23] <Cheradenine> *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x7c075048 ***
[03:23] <Cheradenine> "
[03:23] <Nilsy> Moodles, you need to chmod u+s hddtemp
[03:23] <Nilsy> as rood
[03:23] <davidw> Petaris, makes sense to me, but I would do anything to make it quiet down a bit.... sigh
[03:23] <Nilsy> root even ;)
[03:24] <Cheradenine> anyone got a good idea ?
[03:24] <SelfHarm> well, what are other options for IM?
[03:24] <dr_willis> !im
[03:24] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[03:24] <njan> kopete's nice, SelfHarm
[03:24] <SelfHarm> thanks
[03:24] <Petaris> davidw: I have a server like that, a 1U rackmount that just screams
[03:24] <nevyn> Cheradenine: install timidity and run it as an alas sequencer
[03:24] <Petaris> davidw: I locked it away in a wiring closet  ;)
[03:24] <frogzoo> Cheradenine: it's a bug - but not serious, just ignore it, wine will still work
[03:24] <scanf> yo
[03:24] <davidw> Petaris, good plan... this thing's driving people buggy here
[03:24] <Cheradenine> what if i need the sound in wine?
[03:24] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: sound works in other apps?
[03:25] <scanf> Anyone know why CUPS assigns job owner always as 'root'?
[03:25] <Cheradenine> sound works like a charm in other apps yes
[03:25] <frogzoo> Cheradenine: sound still works
[03:25] <Cheradenine> i think its because dapper runs oss by default?
[03:25] <Cheradenine> i dunno..
[03:25] <dr_willis> i dident think dapper did oss by default
[03:25] <Cheradenine> im not sure about that but i think it does
[03:26] <davidw> another question... how to get initrd (via dpkg-reconfigure) to pick up a new kernel module?
[03:26] <frogzoo> I thought Dapper used esd, which is why you can play multiple sounds...
[03:26] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: no dapper runs alsa... check the perms 'ls -al /dev/snd/*'
[03:26] <erUSUL> frogzoo: in dapper you can choose not to run esd and use the dmix facility of alsa
[03:26] <erUSUL> !sound
[03:26] <Cheradenine> rw for owner and group
[03:26] <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
[03:26] <Cheradenine> is that the problem?
[03:27] <frogzoo> erUSUL: is that any better than esd?
[03:27] <Cheradenine> owner root and group audio
[03:27] <Cheradenine> that might be it
[03:27] <Cheradenine> that means that my user cant read it doesnt it?
[03:27] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: if with the same user you can use sound in other apps i do not see why wine would fail...
[03:28] <Cheradenine> as far as i can tell most apps use /dev/dsp
[03:28] <Cheradenine> not /dev/snd
[03:28] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: 'ls -al /dev/snd/seq'
[03:28] <Cheradenine> no such file or directory
[03:29] <Cheradenine> im sry for troubling you guys but im rather new at this
[03:29] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: only apps that still use oss api opens /dev/dsp (a few like skype and audacity)
[03:29] <Cheradenine> oh
[03:29] <SelfHarm> what is the command line to startup gnome
[03:29] <Cheradenine> in any case it couldnt find that seq directory
[03:30] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: for some reason your card or drivers do not create a seq dev file i do not know what might it be....
[03:30] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: what sound card do you have??
[03:30] <Seleukos>  hi boyz and girls!!!!!
[03:30] <Crescendo> Installed sensors-applet, but I don't see "hardware sensor" applet in my add to panel list.  How do I find it?
[03:30] <regebro> Howdy all! I succeded in whacking my python installation on the head, so it's not working very well. :)
[03:30] <pusling> is it possible to use the dapper installer cd to install breezy ?
[03:30] <regebro> How do I fix it?
[03:30] <erUSUL> Seleukos: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:30] <mikechml> SelfHarm: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:31] <SelfHarm> thanks mike!

[03:31] <regebro> I'm trying to reinstall all the relevant packages, but each reinstall ends with that the package can't be configured because of dependency problems....
[03:31] <monomaniacpat> I can't build after updating the linux kernel yesterday... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17826 Any ideas?
[03:31] <erUSUL> Seleukos: tab complete error sorry

[03:32] <Seleukos> erUSUL: Can you help mw with something?
[03:33] <eps> looks like the security hole is from a ubuntu account default password...working on figuring out which one and who the bastard script kiddy was
[03:33] <mazurskie> is there a repo of just kernel packages?
[03:34] <eps> is there a way to see all ip's that have sshed in in recent days?

[03:35] <horus> hi
[03:35] <horus> i have what i hope is a quick problem
[03:35] <horus> i can't eject my dvd drive
[03:35] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: try lsmod | grep seq and past the output to pastebine
[03:35] <horus> there's a data dvd in there right now
[03:35] <horus> when i hit the button, it doesn't do anything
[03:35] <erUSUL> horus: sudo eject /dev/hdxx
[03:35] <troughton> hello having a problem with networking i am trying to asighn a static ip of 192.168.1.2 to my desktop computer from my router but when i do i lose the network can anyone help ??
[03:36] <Cheradenine> nothing returned
[03:36] <monomaniacpat> I can't make after updating the linux kernel yesterday... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17826 Any ideas?
[03:36] <delta> Hi.
[03:36] <samalex> dang!  I've never seen this many people in one channel!!!  Ubuntu must indeed be the next big distro of choice :-)
[03:36] <horus> and when i select eject from the menu, it says "umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy"
[03:37] <horus> same thing when i use eject from the command line
[03:37] <Cheradenine> lsmod | grep alsa returns nothing
[03:37] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: sudo modprobe snd_seq_device
[03:37] <delta> May I add a line in my source.list such that synaptic will try to look in a specific directory on a dvd?
[03:37] <Cheradenine> but "lsmod | grep oss" returns alot of stuff
[03:37] <axisme> samalex, break another record and join #gentoo
[03:37] <narfmaster> monomaniacpat, you need the new linux-headers-386
[03:37] <horus> troughton, try just using a higher number
[03:37] <Cheradenine> that didnt return anything either
[03:38] <horus> troughton, perhaps something outside of your dhcp range
[03:38] <bilss> hi folks
[03:38] <Cheradenine> so one would have to suspect that my laptop is only running oss stuff wouldnt one?
[03:38] <monomaniacpat> narfmaster: thanks, I just realised that!
[03:39] <horus> but anyway, how do i force whatever's got a handle open to my dvd drive to die?
[03:39] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: was 'sudo modprobe snd_seq_device' succesfull?
[03:39] <Cheradenine> nope
[03:39] <Cheradenine> it didnt return anything
[03:39] <samalex> axisme: yup 804 vs 939 in #Gentoo.  Whoa!  And I remember when Red Hat was the shizit!
[03:39] <horus> or even just find out what process has it so i can kill it?
[03:39] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: btw lsmod | grep snd to see alsa stuff
[03:40] <bilss> how to create an extra name in a domin name ie from 4096.net to lex.4096.net?
[03:40] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: try again 'ls -al /dev/snd/seq'
[03:40] <Cheradenine> ls: /dev/snd/seq: No such file or directory
[03:40] <mikechml> try sudo umount -l /dev/hdc, horus
[03:41] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: :( i do not know what is the problem...
[03:41] <gimmulf> does ubuntu run without any problems on a powermac g5 dual?
[03:41] <wildman> bye ppl
[03:41] <Cheradenine> no worries man :) thanks for helping anyway
[03:41] <chris08> yesterday's kernel update broke vmware-player, any idea how to get it back running?
[03:41] <horus> ah, thanks mikechml
[03:41] <horus> i actually just found that in the manpage :)
[03:41] <horus> worked like a charm, though
[03:41] <Cheradenine> well this was an unexpected bump in the road for my gaming adventure
[03:41] <erUSUL> Cheradenine: lsmod | grep seq still outputs nothing, does it?
[03:42] <mikechml> :)
[03:42] <Cheradenine> nope.. not a thing
[03:42] <Cheradenine> that "seq" doesnt exist by the looks of it
[03:42] <m_0_r_0_n> How do I diable write caches?
[03:42] <roshan_s> chris08: You need to wait a while for the new vmware kernel modules to be uploaded. Till then the easiest option is to use an older kernel
[03:42] <Cheradenine> controlC0  pcmC0D0c  pcmC0D0p  pcmC0D1c  pcmC0D2c  pcmC0D3c  pcmC0D4p  timer
[03:43] <Cheradenine> thats the contents of /dev/snd
[03:43] <Some_Person> YOU IDIOTS!!!!!!
[03:43] <m_0_r_0_n> be respectfull of other users
[03:43] <gimmulf> does ubuntu run without any problems on a powermac g5 dual?
[03:43] <Some_Person> YOUR STUPID INSTALLER PUT GRUB INTO THE MBR, MAKING WINDOWS UNBOOTABLE!!!!!!
[03:43] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: lose the caps
[03:43] <erUSUL> !grub
[03:43] <davidw> sounds like a plus, to me
[03:43] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:43] <Lynoure> Some_Person: people here most likely didn't make the installer
[03:44] <Lynoure> Some_Person: this is just a user suppor channel, where most people helping others are notmal Ubuntu users
[03:44] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Boot from the Windows CD, go to recovery console and run fixmbr
[03:44] <chris08> roshan: I tried that - booted the older kernel but still can't reinstall - I uninstalled vmware player before. now it's gone, even in synaptic
[03:44] <Lynoure> s/notmal/normal
[03:44] <troughton> no did not work i am trying to get it to asighn a static ip so i can set the route so i can hoste my ubuntu websight
[03:44] <Some_Person> problem: i have no windows cd
[03:44] <erUSUL> Some_Person: if you want help recovering win stop yelling
[03:44] <bimberi> Hobbsee: just to let you know, RichEd is a new Canonical recruit :)
[03:44] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: which app are you having sound trouble with?
[03:44] <m_0_r_0_n> Then you have no right to use windows
[03:44] <Some_Person> ok
[03:45] <Hobbsee> bimberi: crud.
[03:45] <Some_Person> windows came preinstalled on my computer
[03:45] <horus> Some_Person, grub usually doesn't make windows unbootable
[03:45] <Some_Person> well, it did
 wine
[03:45] <Hobbsee> bimberi: why didnt someone tell me that before?
[03:45] <erUSUL> Some_Person: post your /boot/grub/menu.lst ina pastebin
[03:45] <Some_Person> in the list, i see 8 things for ubuntu and nothing for windows
[03:45] <m_0_r_0_n> Some_Person, there is always a windows cd, even on preinstalled system
[03:45] <eps> Some_Person: just tell grub to boot into windows
[03:45] <horus> Some_Person, you may be missing something in the grub menu
[03:45] <erUSUL> !pastebin
[03:45] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:45] <Cheradenine> when running "winecfg" i click "audio" tab and it fails
[03:45] <Cheradenine> because it cant find /dev/snd/seq
[03:45] <bimberi> Hobbsee: you did absolutely the right thing
[03:46] <Hobbsee> bimberi: that's true.  but even so
[03:46] <bilss> gnomefreak: hi
[03:46] <horus> i bet some_person wiped his HD during installation and didn't realize it
[03:46] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: /dev/snd/seq is usually used for MIDI music. Most systems nowadays don't have a MIDI synthesiser, so no /dev/snd/seq
[03:46] <Cheradenine> oh
[03:46] <Cheradenine> is there a way to make wine ignore it?
[03:47] <Cheradenine> or overcome it somehow?
[03:47] <nevyn> Cheradenine: it shouldn't be a fatal error
[03:47] <g1g4nt1c> horus, no, i had the same problem yesterday
[03:47] <nevyn> unless you're trying to use a midi application
[03:47] <Cheradenine> hrmm
[03:47] <Cheradenine> nah not really
[03:47] <Cheradenine> im trying to get hl2 to run on this machine
[03:47] <micxer> hi there, anyone tried to install elisa (UPnP AV client) on Dapper Drake according to the howto at https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/wiki/ElisaDapper???
[03:48] <g1g4nt1c> Some_Person, reconfigure your grub
[03:48] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Does winecfg output anything on the terminal before crashing
[03:48] <mikechml> g1g4nt1c: Some_Person quit
[03:48] <horus> g1g4nt1c, some_person's gone
[03:49] <gnomefreak> hi bimberi
[03:49] <Cheradenine> aye
[03:49] <gnomefreak> hi bilss
[03:49] <g1g4nt1c> yeah, i know
[03:49] <Cheradenine> ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[03:49] <Cheradenine> *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x7c0750c8 ***
[03:49] <erUSUL> roshan_s: Cheradenine's sound card or alsa install does not creates a seq device file. unfortunately i can not figure out why
[03:49] <ketetha_> hey what is the linux dos emulator good for
[03:50] <Cheradenine> thats the winecfg error msg
[03:50] <horus> Cheradenine, if you really want to run direct3D games, you should consider purchasing Cedega
[03:50] <mikechml> emulating dos :/
[03:50] <bimberi> hey gnomefreak :)
[03:50] <erUSUL> ketetha_: which? dosbox? dosemu?
[03:50] <ketetha_> mikechml, haha can you go futher into detail
[03:50] <ketetha_> erUSUL, dosemu
[03:50] <horus> ketetha_, running Red Baron, Commander Keen, and many other classics of the era\
[03:50] <Cheradenine> horus: yes i have considered that but this is an experiment to see if i can get it working first
[03:50] <ketetha_> like in laymens terms.
[03:51] <ketetha_> horus, >< ??
[03:51] <Cheradenine> dont want to fork out money if i cant get it running and besides apparently alot of people arent that happy with cedega
[03:51] <erUSUL> ketetha_: with dosemu you can install DOS inside linux much like vmware permits you install win in linux
[03:51] <roshan_s> erUSUL: Cheradenine: It won't create a seq file because there isn't any MIDI sequencer. My system is the same. Most systems won't have a sequencer. The real problem is that WINE is trying to access it
[03:51] <ketetha_> erUSUL, i think i understand what your saying
[03:52] <erUSUL> roshan_s: well i have an AC'97 codec (VIA) and i do have a seq file
[03:52] <regebro> OK, I could really need some hints on how to repair my python install...
[03:52] <horus> erUSUL, i don't think that's actually correct
[03:52] <erUSUL> ketetha_: in the other hand dosbox emules a 286 cpu and the DOS
[03:52] <horus> isn't dosemu more like WINE for DOS?
[03:52] <Cheradenine> roshan yes thats what it seems to be doing at this point
[03:52] <roshan_s> erUSUL: Then you're lucky. Most people need to install timidity and go to great trouble to get midi sequencing working
[03:53] <erUSUL> horus: i'm afraid you are mistaken... check docs
[03:53] <micxer> hi there, anyone tried to install elisa (UPnP AV client) on Dapper Drake according to the howto at https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/wiki/ElisaDapper???
[03:53] <horus> alrighty, i'll take your word for it
[03:53] <erUSUL> roshan_s: lucky me ;)
[03:53] <frogzoo> horus: yup
[03:54] <micxer> it dowsn't work for me, since it won't install libglib2.0-dev
[03:54] <erUSUL> horus: with dosemu you need to install freedos or drdos or ms-dos in a virtual disk
[03:54] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Can you try deleting your .wine directory and starting again? You'll lose any Wine related configuration changes you might have made
[03:54] <horus> ah
[03:54] <micxer> The following packages have unmet dependencies: libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.10.2-1ubuntu3) but 2.10.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[03:54] <horus> never used that one; dosbox always worked fine for me
[03:54] <micxer> E: Broken packages
[03:54] <ketetha_> so if i want to install the package zsnes what i write in the commande line would be : sudo apt-get install zsnes
[03:55] <Cheradenine> roshan: why? it will just fail next time when winecfg tries to access the midi thingie
[03:55] <horus> ketetha_, yes
[03:55] <fowlduck> ketetha_: ya
[03:55] <Cheradenine> unless there's a nifty trick up your sleeve ;)
[03:55] <ketetha_> horus, YAY :) i learned something todayyyy
[03:55] <fowlduck> ketetha_: if you know the dependencies and are fine with it, add a -y
[03:55] <ketetha_> fowlduck, yay. thank youuu
[03:55] <ketetha_> fowlduck, dependencies?
[03:55] <fowlduck> ketetha_: so apt-get -y install znes
[03:55] <ketetha_> fowlduck, i see. and wht does it do?
[03:55] <haakonn> argh! so i set up dapper on a laptop, complete with working wifi. i reboot, and the networking doesn't work anymore. device comes up, wifi card lights up, ifconfig looks the same, but no traffic is being routed (ping anything goes "Destination Host Unreachable" etc). any ideas here?
[03:56] <fowlduck> ketetha_: what the package needs to install along with it (other packages) to run
[03:56] <muslim> i have a problem with apt-get
[03:56] <muslim> i use kubuntu
[03:56] <SheaTara> I use kubuntu but I installed ubuntu-desktop, I use kontact rather than evolution, but I see  an "evolution" process on in ksysguard, is it safe to kill it
[03:56] <ketetha_> fowlduck, OOHHH cool beans.
[03:56] <ketetha_> fowlduck, otherwise itwill ask me write
[03:56] <horus> ketetha_, don't worry about it...it'll work just fine without the -y
[03:56] <ketetha_> horus, okkk =] 
[03:56] <ketetha_> fowlduck, that was supposed to be right??
[03:56] <fowlduck> haakonn: i'd hook up a network cable and update.  Are you using a an ipw3945?
[03:56] <fowlduck> ketetha_: yeah, otherwise it will ask you
[03:57] <muslim> it doesnt connect to the internet
[03:57] <fowlduck> ketetha_: which I find rather annoying sometimes, especially when I'm chaining things
[03:57] <haakonn> fowlduck:  no, it's a trendnet pcmcia card, doubt it is an ipw chip
[03:57] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: No tricks, I'm afraid. I suppose you've already tried "sudo modprobe snd_seq"
[03:57] <Cheradenine> aye
[03:57] <Cheradenine> nothing returned
[03:57] <ketetha_> coool.
[03:57] <horus> muslim, try #kubuntu
[03:57] <ketetha_> im gogin to write this downn
[03:57] <fowlduck> haakonn: hmm, i dunno then, sorry
[03:57] <muslim> can anyone help
[03:57] <muslim> ?
[03:57] <haakonn> mysterious stuff
[03:57] <Cheradenine> well.. assuming that this letdown wont make everything go tits up i should be ready to install hl2 now
[03:58] <horus> ketetha_, you can also use the graphical apt-get interface
[03:58] <horus> the one ubuntu uses is called Synaptic
[03:58] <ketetha_> horus, whats that?
[03:58] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Still no /dev/snd/seq?
[03:58] <horus> and can be found in Syste | Administration
[03:58] <muslim> i tried ther with no result
[03:58] <Cheradenine> nope
[03:58] <Cheradenine> it was never there
[03:59] <muslim> they suggested for me to try here
[03:59] <Cheradenine> controlC0  pcmC0D0c  pcmC0D0p  pcmC0D1c  pcmC0D2c  pcmC0D3c  pcmC0D4p  timer
[03:59] <fowlduck> ketetha_: give this a read, or just look at the links and click what you want to do, it will explain it for ya: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[03:59] <Cheradenine> thats the contents of /dev/snd
[03:59] <horus> ketetha_, it's quite nice, and easier than using the command line if you don't know the name of the package you want
[03:59] <ketetha_> horus, cool whre do i get that?
[03:59] <horus> what's the problem, muslim
[03:59] <ketetha_> fowlduck, thankss im readding :)
[04:00] <horus> ketetha_, it's already installed by default
[04:00] <horus> in your system menu
[04:00] <muslim> apt-get
[04:00] <horus> under administration
[04:00] <muslim> kpackage
[04:00] <haakonn> dmesg says "wlan0: link not ready". i've heard this card sometimes have problems "associating" with the wifi router. this may be the problem. but how can i make it try to associate?
[04:00] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Which sound card do you have? Or motherboard, if its integrated.
[04:00] <KRA> could someone help me with a compile problem ?
[04:00] <muslim> can't connect to intrernet
[04:00] <horus> ketetha_, or just hit alt-f2 and type synaptic
[04:01] <Cheradenine>  Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)
[04:01] <fowlduck> haakonn: iwconfig i think
[04:01] <fowlduck> haakonn: or iwlist
[04:01] <muslim> they did only once
[04:01] <ketetha_> horus, OH THAT! ya. haha thats where i got the name zsnes :) ya i just felt like using the command line so i can learn moree
[04:01] <haakonn> hmm perhaps iwconfig something
[04:01] <horus> muslim, is anything on your computer connecting to the internet, or is it just those appications that fail?
[04:01] <muslim> then refused to do so
[04:01] <cristiano> hello people, suddenly accented keys on my keyboard seems not to work anymore (even if shifted!!!) how is it possible????
[04:01] <horus> ketetha_, that's a good idea
[04:02] <muslim> in the begining it was only konqurer that was able to connect
[04:02] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Can you try "sudo modprobe snd-seq-dummy"
[04:03] <ketetha_> horus, :) ls -a shows hidden files in your desktop or wherever right on the command line?
[04:03] <muslim> then firefox after i disabled IPv6 from its config
[04:03] <horus> muslim, does anything currently work on that computer?
[04:03] <Cheradenine> that does not return anything
[04:03] <cristiano> no cues for me ???? :(
[04:03] <Cheradenine> :/
[04:03] <muslim> every thing is ok
[04:03] <horus> ketetha_, yes, but to learn about any command, just type man <command> instead of asking people in here
[04:04] <muslim> except that updating problem
[04:04] <ketetha_> man <command>
[04:04] <ketetha_> horus, thankss
[04:04] <ketetha_> man <ls -a>
[04:04] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: That's a good sign. It only returns something if there's trouble :-)
[04:04] <ketetha_> arggh confusion
[04:04] <Cheradenine> lol ok
[04:04] <horus> then the problem is almost certainly either in your sources.list or that the update server is down
[04:04] <muslim> i think it may have something to do with IPv6
[04:04] <horus> ketetha_, not in the channel
[04:04] <horus> on the command line
[04:05] <horus> type "man ls"
[04:05] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: See if you have a /dev/snd/seq now
[04:05] <muslim> no i made sure they are fine
[04:05] <Cheradenine> nope
[04:05] <phunkalicious> hi there, i added a repository to install something, and then it updated some packages that broke a bunch of other stuff; is there some way to go back to the ubuntu packages? some log or something?
[04:05] <horus> muslim, hmm
[04:05] <muslim> can i disable IPv6
[04:06] <muslim> even temporarily
[04:06] <ketetha_> man ls
[04:06] <Ng> !ipv6 > muslim
[04:06] <ketetha_> OH
[04:06] <ketetha_> horus, HAHA on the command line! haha sorry didint read that. okk
[04:06] <micxer> hmm, noone seems to care about this nice Media Center Elisa
[04:07] <muslim> to make sure its not the source of the problem
[04:07] <kakado> phunkalicious, the easy way is if apt-get dist-upgrade is enough
[04:07] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Strange. That did it on my system. It creates a dummy sequencer. Maybe some other module you loaded earlier conflicts with it. How about rebooting and then loading snd-seq-dummy? That'll clear out any extra modules
[04:07] <phunkalicious> but they are newer packages
[04:07] <phunkalicious> so apt-get thinks they are up to date :/
[04:07] <phunkalicious> but they are broken! :O
[04:08] <Cheradenine> no wait
[04:08] <Cheradenine> there it is :D
[04:08] <Cheradenine> argh!
[04:08] <Cheradenine> got rid off the alsa error but now another one is there
[04:08] <gnomefreak> phunkalicious: apt-get -f install  to fix broken packages
[04:08] <Cheradenine> *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x7c0750c8 ***
[04:09] <horus> Cheradenine, welcome to the joy that is running directX apps in wine :)
[04:09] <Cheradenine> lol
[04:09] <Cheradenine> dammit
[04:09] <horus> anyway, i solved the problem i came in here for a long while ago
[04:09] <Cheradenine> well as i said this is just an experiment but if i can get this to run i'll seriously consider ditching xp for good
[04:09] <horus> nice chatting with you helpful folk
[04:09] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: I'm sorry I can't help you there. I'm running amd64 and wine doesn't support it :-|
[04:09] <lopzided> has anyone had any luck getting a gamepad to work via the gameport connection (the one on the sound card)?
[04:09] <Cheradenine> urgh
[04:10] <Cheradenine> no worries man :) thnx for the help sofar
[04:10] <gnomefreak> try #winehq
[04:11] <Some_Person> Ok, how can I install Ubuntu without installing GRUB to the MBR?
[04:11] <Cheradenine> thnx gnome
[04:12] <ketetha_> what is wine?
[04:12] <Some_Person> I want GRUB on hda6.
[04:12] <Ng> !wine
[04:12] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:12] <fowlduck> Some_Person: get an "alternative" CD and do an "expert" install, iirc
[04:12] <Some_Person> i don't have one
[04:12] <fowlduck> Some_Person: then get one
[04:12] <ketetha_> thankkks
[04:12] <clokworx> hi there..
[04:12] <Wanderer> 'lo
[04:12] <Some_Person> and my dialup stops me from d/ling one
[04:13] <Some_Person> urgh, why didn't the people who made the cd use the same installer they used for Breezy?
[04:14] <Ng> Some_Person: the alternate install CD image uses the older text installer
[04:14] <clokworx> can someone help me.. i messed up with "tee" and was replacing the whole /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file.. where can I get the original file?
[04:14] <Some_Person> and i can't get it.
[04:14] <Some_Person> on dialup, it would take 3 days.
[04:14] <Ng> clokworx: you could reinstall the module-init-tools package
[04:14] <missportos> salut tout le monde
[04:15] <missportos> aleur ia kelkin
[04:15] <missportos> ????
[04:15] <Ng> !fr
[04:15] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:15] <missportos> koi
[04:15] <ketetha_> before installing wine it says put this in :deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main: repository so do i follow :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu: :Adding Canonical Commercial Repositories: near the center of that page
[04:15] <Some_Person> ugh, it looks like i'll have to install ubuntu then use fdisk /mbr with a really old pre-SP1 windows cd
[04:16] <airjump> hello
[04:16] <clokworx> ng..how do i get it? from apt ?
[04:16] <PyroticShadow> Ok all you smart Ubuntu people, is there any particular reason why my Wifi is not getting anywhere NEAR it's speed that it should?.. Maxing at 50Kbps, when I should atle ast average 150Kbps, and max at 220Kbps, on my 1.5Mbps Connection.
[04:16] <Ng> clokworx: synaptic can reinstall a package or you can do "sudo apt-get --reinstall install module-init-tools"
[04:16] <erUSUL> clokworx: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17831 here it is mine (unmodified iirc)
[04:16] <PyroticShadow> Yes, I have the latest Driver for my card, I also have the latest firmware update, as well.
[04:17] <ketetha_> anyone?
[04:17] <da1> i want to do su, does anyone know he default password for the live cd, haven't installed it yet on my hd
[04:17] <ketetha_> before installing wine it says put this in :deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main: repository so do i follow :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu: :Adding Canonical Commercial Repositories: near the center of that page
[04:17] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, just ad it to the repositorys...
[04:17] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, just as it says..
[04:18] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, by pressing custom?
[04:18] <erUSUL> ketetha_: do not repeat please
[04:18] <Some_Person> if anyone here is actually from ubuntu, YOUR STUPID INSTALLER SUCKS
[04:18] <erUSUL> ketetha_: edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:18] <frogzoo> PyroticShadow: tried bumping the txpower?
[04:18] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, just edit the file (/etc/apt/sources.list) and add thos lines..
[04:18] <PyroticShadow> frogzoo, How might Ig o about doing that?
[04:18] <PyroticShadow> go *
[04:19] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, thanks
[04:19] <ketetha_> erUSUL, thanks sorr
[04:19] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, mhm.
[04:20] <PyroticShadow> frogzoo, ...hmm?
[04:20] <clokworx> thanks erUSUL for the paste.. i'm gonna use that as that seems legit enough for me to use
[04:20] <Some_Person> why doesn't ubuntu ship the "alternate" cds??????????
[04:21] <clokworx> thanks Ng for the guide
[04:21] <ompaul> Some_Person, write to canonical
[04:21] <PyroticShadow> Some_Person, what do you mean by "alternate" d's?
[04:21] <PyroticShadow> cd's*
[04:21] <axisme> cos they suck
[04:21] <Some_Person> i need to keep the windows mbr
[04:21] <Some_Person> and the regular install simply puts grub in the mbr without asking
[04:21] <Ng> Some_Person: any recent windows CD can reinstall it for you
[04:22] <mjr> Some_Person, because it would have extra costs for a benefit that's not significant?
[04:22] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, it wont let me save its read-only
[04:22] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, sudo
[04:22] <Ng> PyroticShadow: there are three install CDs available, the regular one, a server one and an alternate one that uses a text installer
[04:22] <Subhuman> Some_Person, why do you need the windows MBR, and also it does state that if you want the grub installed in anywhere but the mbr then use the alt. install
[04:22] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, "sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list"
[04:22] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, thankss
[04:22] <PyroticShadow> kthread, np.
[04:22] <Some_Person> i have dialup
[04:22] <roshan_s> Some_Person: You can backup the MBR and restore it later
[04:22] <WWW> .
[04:23] <Some_Person> alt. cd takes 3 days to download
[04:23] <PyroticShadow> Ng, Ah, I don't use ubuntu that often, so I wasn't sure, I use Gentoo mainly... but did you see my question about Wifi in Ubuntu?
[04:23] <WWW> how do i set up an irc proxy
[04:23] <Ng> PyroticShadow: I did, but I'm afraid I don't have any ideas for you
[04:23] <Subhuman> Some_Person, but why do you need windows' bootloader?
[04:23] <PyroticShadow> Ng, That's alright, I knew ye' were quite Ubuntu Saavy, I was just making sure, didn't want to repost for no reason, ;)
[04:23] <ketetha_> i choose the command write out?
[04:23] <PyroticShadow> Ng, not a significant problem, but I do need to get it worked out eventually.
[04:24] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, ignore that
[04:24] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, k.
[04:24] <Some_Person> my dad has linuxphoebia, so i have to hide ubuntu
[04:24] <Some_Person> if he sees the GRUB thingy, he'll know ubuntu is installed
[04:24] <WWW> lol what did u do
[04:24] <Subhuman> ? why dont you sit down and explain it all.
[04:24] <WWW> install grub on floppy?
[04:24] <PyroticShadow> Some_Person, get a seperate harddrive.
[04:24] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Do you have a writable Windows partition (i.e. FAT32 instead of NTFS)?
[04:24] <Some_Person> it auto-installs to mbr
[04:24] <Some_Person> no
[04:24] <Some_Person> ntfs
[04:24] <PyroticShadow> Some_Person, NTFS Hates Linux.
[04:24] <WWW> you can erase it after though
[04:25] <WWW> and then put it on floppy
[04:25] <Ng> Some_Person: as I said (and as you said), a windows CD can reinstall the mbr. problem solved
[04:25] <Some_Person> i know it does, but i had 5.10 working fine with the mb
[04:25] <WWW> hmm
[04:25] <Some_Person> *mbr
[04:25] <WWW> best way i see
[04:25] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, haha okk i added it now how do i save it. there are little codes at the buttom but im not sure how they work
[04:25] <WWW> install ubuntu
[04:25] <WWW> then install windows
[04:25] <WWW> then boot to live cd
[04:25] <WWW> and install grub from there
[04:25] <WWW> to floppy
[04:25] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, "ctrl+x", y, enter
[04:25] <frogzoo> PyroticShadow: not without good reason :p
[04:25] <Cheradenine> HAH! got wine sound working :D
[04:25] <roshan_s> Some_Person: You can use dd to backup the first 446 bytes of the MBR and restore them after you install Ubuntu.
[04:26] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, thanks a bunch
[04:26] <Cheradenine> #winehq did the trick
[04:26] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Anytime.
[04:26] <Some_Person> how about this: install ubuntu, boot to windows recovery cd and use fdisk /mbr to put windows back in it.
[04:26] <PyroticShadow> Congratulations Cheradenine
[04:26] <WWW> btw has your dad read this by any chance? http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2001.12.2.42056.2147.html
[04:26] <WWW> look at #8
[04:26] <Subhuman> Some_Person, dont need to even do that
[04:26] <Cheradenine> hehe ta ^^
[04:26] <Subhuman> Some_Person, just push r on the xp install cd, get the recovery console and type "fixmbr"
[04:27] <roshan_s> Cheradenine: Nice to hear that
[04:27] <roshan_s> Subhuman: He doesn't have an XP CD
[04:27] <Some_Person> i think he has read that
[04:27] <phipu> Hi. I set up ubuntu a few days ago. Now I've a problem with a delay of about 15 seconds when I request a website. I tried with opera and firfox and got the same problem. Has anyone a hint?
[04:27] <Subhuman> Some_Person, then just use a boot CD like GAG or something to boot ubuntu.
[04:27] <Some_Person> i have a really old pre-SP1 recovery cd
[04:27] <Subhuman> Some_Person, that will have fixmbr on it.
[04:27] <Some_Person> no it doesnt
[04:27] <roshan_s> Some_Person: That's alright. As long as you can get to the Recovery Console
[04:28] <Some_Person> but it does have fdisk /mbr which does the same thing
[04:28] <ketetha_> yay wine is in installiation
[04:28] <Some_Person> its called "command prompt from cd" on that old thing
[04:28] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, good :)
[04:28] <roshan_s> Some_Person: are you sure that's a Windows XP CD? Earlier version used a different bootloader.
[04:28] <Ng> Some_Person: fixmbr was on the windows 2000 install cd recovery console, so I'd be surprised if it's not on the XP one
[04:28] <PyroticShadow> phipu, Pipe Firefox, first off, and second are you wireless, or wired internet?
[04:28] <frogzoo> phipu: every website, or just very first one?
[04:29] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, one of these days im going to do it all by myself no questions asked :) maybe this afternoon or something
[04:29] <Some_Person> i've used that recovery cd for fdisk /mbr before on this machine with SP2
[04:29] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, heh'.. takes time, and patience.
[04:29] <Some_Person> i had an MBR virus
[04:29] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, and a bit-o-googling
[04:29] <phipu> I'm wired on net. But what do you mean with "Pipe Firefox"?
[04:29] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, haha i have time :) just not patient enough. haha
[04:29] <roshan_s> SomePerson: Then just do that again. What's the trouble?
[04:29] <PyroticShadow> phipu, open up Firefox for me.
[04:29] <Some_Person> i lost that cd
[04:29] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, I know how that goes, but patience is the greatest thing to have.
[04:30] <phipu> ok, firefox is open
[04:30] <lz1gjd> is it possible to install k desktop to ubuntu from a kubuntu live cd ? i mounted the filesystem.sqashfs image but can't find where the .deb packages are ?
[04:30] <PyroticShadow> phipu, and in the URL type "about:config" without the quotations.
[04:30] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, yep yep. nowi can say. a wise person on IRC told me that patiences is the greatest thing to have =] 
[04:30] <phipu> ok I made that
[04:30] <PyroticShadow> phipu, then, it should put you to a screen with a ton of configuration type information, there hsould be a secondary "url" looking line, type pipe, in it, and hit enter.
[04:31] <c0ax_> how can i painlessly run a dual boot with ubuntu?
[04:31] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, I'm not so much "wise" as you may think... I'm still learning.
[04:31] <PyroticShadow> phipu, Then, once there, you'll see 3 lines.
[04:31] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, ok how bought this. a "wiser person then me"
[04:31] <roshan_s> Some_Person: Your best solution is to educate your Dad about Linux :-)
[04:32] <PyroticShadow> phipu, first line, at the end should say "false", double click it, it should change to "true", do that, and the last line should be the same, change it to true also, then the middle line, should say "4", or "8", double click it, and change the number to 16, hit enter, restart firefox, and it should be much faster loading websites.
[04:32] <Crescendo> What's the easiest way to get a network printer working on Linux
[04:32] <Crescendo> ?
[04:32] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, that may be true, but I won't quote you on it, or hold you to your word.
[04:32] <axisme> cups
[04:32] <PyroticShadow> Crescendo, CUPs
[04:32] <Crescendo> sudo apt-get install cups?
[04:32] <axisme> yeah, you need to fiddle with groups abit too
[04:32] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, haha okk
[04:32] <g1g4nt1c> !cups
[04:32] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[04:32] <axisme> adding crap here and there
[04:33] <ketetha_> im goign to help someone today
[04:33] <ketetha_> i can FEEL it in my blood. todays the day
[04:33] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Want to help me get my wireless internet to speed up to it's average speed that it should be at??? :)
[04:34] <PyroticShadow> phipu, Didja get it?
[04:34] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, haha suree. lets see i'll be right back. ima look into that. im determined =] 
[04:34] <rendo> After upgrading 5.10 to 6.06, my samba server doesn't work to my windows machine, how do I fix that since it worked before perfectly fine?
[04:34] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, good luck, I've already googled all possible... :P
[04:35] <PyroticShadow> rendo, it may not be able to work in 6.06, I'm not sure, just a thought.
[04:35] <SeraVitae> Hey, what's the equivilant of /etc/modules.d/ on ubuntu?
[04:35] <rendo> Well that's crappy. :@
[04:35] <phipu> PyroticShadow: I did everything you said. But it's even worse now.  There was no Problem with the speed. The problem is the delay till it starts to load a website.
[04:35] <Some_Person> how come that "is your son a computer hacker" page says Lunix (Linux?) is illegal?
[04:36] <WWW> lol
[04:36] <WWW> because it's meant to be satirical
[04:36] <WWW> it also says
[04:36] <WWW> linux torvalds is a soviet hacker
[04:36] <PyroticShadow> phipu, ...It should have sped it up, hmm.... I appologize.
[04:36] <Some_Person> it says, quote, "BSD, Lunix, Debian and Mandrake are all versions of an illegal hacker operation system, invented by a Soviet computer hacker named Linyos Torovoltos,"
[04:36] <ke> lol
[04:36] <phipu> no problem. thanks for your help
[04:36] <krism> haha
[04:37] <PyroticShadow> phipu, I wish I could help more.. :(
[04:37] <PyroticShadow> Some_Person, haha!... Linyos Torovoltos!!!!
[04:37] <Dokkeri-> Some_Person: OMG! That's it I'm out of here!
[04:37] <SeraVitae> this guide for gentoo linux points to /etc/modules.d/<something> and i know i have that in ubuntu somewhere, could anyone suggest where?
[04:37] <Some_Person> thing is, if it were illegal, Mac OS X would be illegal too
[04:37] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, what are ye' looking to do...
[04:37] <WWW> look at reason #10
[04:37] <WWW> sec
[04:37] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, eh. ima put that one on hold. i think i'll solve atiny problem for now like which media player to use and how to install it :)
[04:38] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - i need to add an option so a file in /etc/modules.d/ (if i was running gentoo) for my wifi card.
[04:38] <WWW> Has your son radically changed his appearance?
[04:38] <WWW> If your son has undergone a sudden change in his style of dress, you may have a hacker on your hands. Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks. (I have no idea why they do this) There are many such hackers in schools today, and your son may
[04:38] <WWW>  have started to associate with them. If you notice that your son's group of friends includes people dressed like this, it is time to think about a severe curfew, to protect him from dangerous influences.
[04:38] <SeraVitae> ubuntu doesn't have a /etc/modules.d, so i assumed it had something similar.
[04:38] <lopzided> SeraVitae, i have a 'modules.d' located at /usr/share/initramfs/modules.d , but i'm not sure its the same one you're looking for
[04:38] <ketetha_> WWW, someones probably going to tell you not to paste.
[04:38] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Ahh.. Okey, I'll leave those open for you then.
[04:38] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm... I run Gentoo, and Ubuntu, so let me check.
[04:38] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, muchh appreciateddd
[04:39] <Crescendo> I have a Brother MFC-5440CN on a SMB share, but the driver is not listed, nor is it provided on the brother site.  Will selecting the nearest model work?
[04:39] <SeraVitae> yeah i have it too, and it's empty.
[04:39] <WWW> wow how long did it take u to make gentoo
[04:39] <SeraVitae> i need to find the equvilant of /etc/modules.d/ipw2200 which should contain options for intel 2200bg wireless card.
[04:39] <PyroticShadow> WWW, Few hours.. :P
[04:39] <PyroticShadow> Crescendo, it may work yes...
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, oo, the same wireless card as I have..
[04:40] <bertu> Apart from bittorrent is there another program to download torrets
[04:40] <WWW> ktorrent is the best IMO
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> bertu, BitTornado...
[04:40] <WWW> it's like utorrent on windows
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> bertu, Azureus.
[04:40] <WWW> azureus is slow as hell
[04:40] <lopzided> SeraVitae, do :$ locate ipw2200
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> WWW, never heard of it, I did like utorrent though...
[04:40] <WWW> and the java is buggy
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> WWW, SHHH :P... I hate Azureus, but, he asked! :P
[04:40] <frogzoo> Crescendo: nothing to lose trying
[04:40] <bertu> are they compatible with ubuntu though?
[04:40] <PyroticShadow> bertu, yep.
[04:40] <WWW> ktorrent is
[04:41] <WWW> but u have to install a lot of kde libs
[04:41] <ColD_7> comments on easy ubuntu?
[04:41] <PyroticShadow> bertu, ktorrent is, so is Azureus, and so is BitTornado (thats what I use, it may already be on your system)
[04:41] <bertu> i used to have azureus but i never liked it
[04:41] <fidel> anyone know if ubuntu comes with gcc compiler
[04:41] <ketetha_> what are torrent programs anyway
[04:41] <spikeb> it's not installed by default fidel
[04:41] <PyroticShadow> ColD_7, Erhm.. I haven't used it in a long time, so I'm not too sure, I think it's much easier to learn on yer own, but ye' may want to run it, one passby, just for the sake of it.. :P...
[04:41] <bertu> what do you suggest to use
[04:42] <WWW> ktorrent
[04:42] <lopzided> ktorrent ftw
[04:42] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, to download Torrents, aka, files like, whole albums, movies, etc.
[04:42] <PyroticShadow> bertu, I recommend BitTornado, but that's just because I like it.. not many others do.. so ktorrent may be your best bet.
[04:42] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - googling shows /etc/modprobe.d/ as a possibility.
[04:42] <bertu> emm using the apt get?
[04:42] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - "Automating driver loading works as described too, except that /etc/modprobe.d/ipw3945 has to be used instead of the proposed /etc/modules.d/ipw3945."
[04:42] <WWW> yeah it's there i think
[04:42] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, I think that is correct.
[04:43] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, i seee. how long does it take to download a movie thats like an hour and a half on the computer
[04:43] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, /etc/modprobe.d yep sounds right.
[04:43] <fidel> I downloaded it how do I install it has a read me but is very complicated
[04:43] <SeraVitae> Too bad modprobe.d doesn't have my wifi card in it :/
[04:43] <ketetha_> !tell bertu about torrent
[04:43] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Depends, the more people who download it and seed it, the faster it downloads, the less people, the slower, sometimes it can take weeks, sometimes it can take a simple 24 hours with the computer on over night...
[04:43] <ketetha_> bertu, bertu, sudo apt-get install ktorrent
[04:43] <ketetha_> wait nevermind
[04:43] <SeraVitae> Oh. wait. i'm smoking crack.
[04:43] <ketetha_> bertu, sudo apt-get install BitTornado should work
[04:43] <lopzided> obviously....
[04:44] <SeraVitae> it says ipw3945, which is a valid wifi card.
[04:44] <WWW> speed is anywhere from 350kbs-1kbs
[04:44] <WWW> average is prolly around 40-50
[04:44] <lz1gjd> how do you configure your kde env. like the themes for qt in ubuntu ?
[04:44] <PyroticShadow> WWW, depends on your connectio.
[04:44] <bertu> ok
[04:44] <PyroticShadow> connection*
[04:44] <ketetha_> pyrotic, wow hey what i told bertu is right right?  sudo apt-get install BitTornado. please make it right. that means i helped someone
[04:45] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, if he has the right repositories, yes.
[04:45] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - okay, i've updated the file inside modprobe.d, what should i use to update the changes? modprobe the card again?
[04:45] <randomized> hi all
[04:45] <bertu> yeah it should work
[04:45] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, it is! haha yesss. i was waiting for him to ask how. fun stuff man.
[04:45] <ketetha_> bertu, hehe. yay :)
[04:45] <SeraVitae> fatal error: could not find intel pro/wireless 3945ABG network connection : error running install command for ipw3945
[04:46] <SeraVitae> i'm almost 100% sure i have a 2200bg. wtf is it showing a 3945?
[04:46] <fidel> spikeb gcc what is the easyest way to install it?
[04:46] <bertu> 10x ketetha_ and the others
[04:46] <spikeb> fidel, with synaptic or apt-get
[04:46] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm.. "sudo lspci | grep Wireless"
[04:46] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, that it is...
[04:46] <PyroticShadow> randomized, Do ye' have a question for us?
[04:47] <Crescendo> What's an equivalent to Dreamweaver on Linux?
[04:47] <fidel> will it install it or just get the file cos i have the files?
[04:47] <mako> dao777: hey there dude
[04:47] <randomized> PyroticShadow, nope everything is workin fine
[04:47] <lopzided> i thought there _was_ dreamweaver for linux?  :P
[04:47] <ketetha_> bertu, :)
[04:47] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Can't remember its name, let me check...
[04:47] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - i just did a dmesg | grep less and got "ipw2200: detected intel pro 2200bg bla bla
[04:47] <ketetha_> Stormx2, hey! :)
[04:47] <airjump> Hello, i search a ubuntu podcast?
[04:47] <SeraVitae> but then right after it i get an ipw3945: message as well.
[04:47] <Crescendo> If there _is_ Dreamweaver for Linux... where?
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm...
[04:48] <spikeb> fidel, it will download and install the files
[04:48] <ketetha_> crescendo, wait one second let me see
[04:48] <lopzided> Crescendo, my apologies...i don't think there is....
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, do you have two cards??
[04:48] <SeraVitae> Nope.
[04:48] <fidel> I will try
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm...
[04:48] <WWW> crossover office sucks
[04:48] <SeraVitae> its inbuilt wifi in my laptop
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> WWW, that it does.
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, HP Laptop?
[04:48] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Heya
[04:48] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Hows it going man?
[04:48] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, if so, I'ts probably the ipw2200..
[04:49] <fidel> spikeb what is the command or how do i get to synaptic
[04:49] <ketetha_> Stormx2, exciting newwws i helped someone today :) just now. you missed it.
[04:49] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, did you try restarting your net?
[04:49] <Stormx2> Aww
[04:49] <randomized> except my gnome-pilot that sometimes work, sometimes dont
[04:49] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Might possibly be "august", but do a "apt-cache search wysiwyg"
[04:49] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, /etc/init.d/networking restart ...
[04:49] <SeraVitae> ok
[04:49] <PyroticShadow> randomized, I'd love to help but I know nothing about that.
[04:50] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, well.. wait..
[04:50] <airjump> Hello i search a ubuntu podcast? can someone help me
[04:50] <Stormx2> randomized: Whats the problem?
[04:50] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, I don't want you to lose connection... and not be able to come back for help... you sure you can restart the net and be able to get it back up to at least wired, if it doesn't work ??
[04:50] <fidel> spikeb thanks for your pacience
[04:50] <randomized> Stormx2, it has stopped to synchonize my tasks for no apparent reason
[04:50] <ketetha_> airjump, whats the matter?
[04:50] <Crescendo> Stormx2, I'm not so interested in the wysiwyg functionality as I am the constant FTP version...
[04:51] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - it's on my laptop, so it's okay.
[04:51] <SeraVitae> i wont loose cnxion
[04:51] <Lynoure> airjump: man, you can find it through  the first hit on google for   ubuntu podcast
[04:51] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Alright.
[04:51] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, then go for it..
[04:51] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:51] <SeraVitae> yeah i did that, it's still doing it.
[04:51] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, pastebin me the output..
[04:51] <Stormx2> Crescendo: FTP is a bit of a bummer in ubuntu, but I found a great client, actually a firefox extension, called FireFTP
[04:51] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, any errors?
[04:51] <airjump> google is fine but i don`t find a good link
[04:51] <Stormx2> airjump: http://ubuntuos.com/podcast/
[04:51] <WWW> eh
[04:51] <ketetha_> airjump, hold one let me find one for you
[04:51] <Stormx2> Its here: http://ubuntuos.com/podcast/ ^_^
[04:52] <Lynoure> airjump: really, the first hit on goodge linked to that.
[04:52] <Stormx2> Latest episode here: http://ubuntuos.com/podcast/media/ep7-070206-ubuntuos.ogg
[04:52] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - yep, on eth1 which i assume is the wifi, 'no dhcp offers recieved' (okay, no dhcp in range anyhow)
[04:52] <airjump> Thanks Stormx2
[04:52] <SeraVitae> then down at the bottom, i get "wlan0: error while getting interface flags: no such dvice" failed to bring up wlan0.
[04:52] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Did you try staticing it?
[04:52] <user-land> hello, do you use nokia phone software on linux or on windows only ?
[04:52] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, is your wired "eth0" ??
[04:53] <ketetha_> stormx2, you really stink you know that right. :)
[04:53] <SeraVitae> yeah
[04:53] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, try "sudo ifconfig eth1 up"
[04:53] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol
[04:53] <Stormx2> user-land: Search ubuntuforums.org
[04:53] <ketetha_> stormx2, haha i had the page open and all ready to give the link :)
[04:53] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow [ OK ] 
[04:53] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol ^_^
[04:53] <SeraVitae> seemed to come up fine.
[04:54] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, output?
[04:54] <Stormx2> What to listen to what to listen to...
[04:54] <PyroticShadow> Stormx2, Zeromancer
[04:54] <WWW> www.di.fm
[04:54] <Stormx2> Haven't got anything by them :)
[04:54] <WWW> i havent even heard of them
[04:54] <PyroticShadow> Stormx2, go to ubuntu-offtopic, I don't want to get kicked/banned for offtopic conversation.
[04:54] <PyroticShadow> WWW, Same to you.
[04:54] <Stormx2> *puts on The Mad Capsule Markets*
[04:54] <Stormx2> Yeah well I'm done now
[04:54] <Stormx2> ^_^
[04:54] <Stormx2> back to helping folks
[04:54] <PyroticShadow> k.
[04:55] <Jy> anyone know if ubuntu has like a network install iso.. like fedora has boot.iso that is 6 megs to do a http install?
[04:55] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - the output was [ OK ] . :)
[04:55] <SeraVitae> as in, the device came up fine.
[04:55] <Crescendo> Stormx2, I like FireFTP... but more on the Dreamweaver thing, I love to be able to open a file, press CTRL-S, and it saves to the FTP, like the "coder" method in Dreamweaver.
[04:55] <SeraVitae> and iwconfig shows eth1 nicely.
[04:55] <ketetha_> what is dreamweaver anyways
[04:55] <Crescendo> And tag completion is another majorly desireable function.
[04:55] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, good... now check your networking and make it Default Device..
[04:56] <Crescendo> Worst comes to worst, I'll WinE it.  But I really don't want to.
[04:56] <Crescendo> =D
[04:56] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, and you should be set to go :)
[04:56] <Crescendo> I'd rather use an OSS version.
[04:56] <Crescendo> =D
[04:56] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - the card always *worked* fine
[04:56] <WWW> vmware it?
[04:56] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Ah... Well you can use gnome to do that, I think.
[04:56] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, I figured I was missing the point.. sorry I haven't slept in 2 days, what was the problem again???...
[04:56] <SeraVitae> the problem is that in modules.d it lists the *wrong* model of card... and i need to modify that file to apply a hack.
[04:56] <morphix> what parameters do i use in fstab to get a samba share to automount but read only
[04:56] <Stormx2> Crescendo: They improved the FTP support in dapper. If you go to Places > Connect to server, set it all up, then it will come up in your file open dialog.
[04:56] <Crescendo> I tried using... the default text editor.  But it won't open files in an FTP directory, it's blank.
[04:57] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Ah, but if it works fine, why modify it and change it?
[04:57] <morphix> i know how to have it for write access
[04:57] <Stormx2> Oh dear
[04:57] <Stormx2> ^_^
[04:57] <Stormx2> Well.
[04:57] <Blv3Watyr> Hello.
[04:57] <Stormx2> There could be an extension for gedit, or something
[04:57] <Stormx2> let me give it a go!
[04:57] <ketetha_> blv3watyr, helllo
[04:57] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - because i need to add an 'options' line so that my killswitch LED works properly.
[04:57] <morphix> nvm i remember now :/
[04:57] <Blv3Watyr> oi, busy channel here :] 
[04:57] <Crescendo> Thanks, Stormx2.
[04:57] <Crescendo> =)
[04:57] <SeraVitae> there's no 2200 file in modprobe.d, only the *other* intel wifi card that isn't in this box.
[04:58] <SeraVitae> that's why im confused.
[04:58] <ketetha_> blv3watyr haha there is only like 10 people talking out ofthe 800
[04:58] <SeraVitae> the killswitch works fine, because i can see the state changes.
[04:58] <Blv3Watyr> heheh
[04:58] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm...
[04:58] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, So what exatly isn't "working" persay
[04:58] <PyroticShadow> exactly*
[04:58] <ketetha_> blv3watyr, :) didja need help?
[04:58] <Blv3Watyr> better than ten people.... and... nobody talkin.... half these channels im on are silent 8-|
[04:59] <Blv3Watyr> help? only a question about ubuntu
[04:59] <ketetha_> blv3watyr, way to look at the glass half FULL! :)
[04:59] <Stormx2> Crescendo: I can actually open them fine.
[04:59] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - the LED on my killswitch doesnt turn when i activate the killswitch.
[04:59] <Blv3Watyr> lol
[04:59] <WWW> there's 821 people on this channel
[04:59] <SeraVitae> the switch itself works fine.
[04:59] <PyroticShadow> Blv3Watyr, ask question.
[04:59] <WWW> by sheer probabilty
[04:59] <ketetha_> blv3watyr, to risk getting kicked off go to the offtopic channel
[04:59] <Blv3Watyr> okee...
[04:59] <randomized> how many badblocks before i xan throw rhe disk ?
[04:59] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, just the LED??
[04:59] <Blv3Watyr> ive been using rpm distros...
[04:59] <Crescendo> Hrm, let me look at my problem, then, Stormx2 .
[04:59] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, That's it.. just the LED doesn't work?????
[04:59] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, ...>.<
[04:59] <SeraVitae> yes, *just* the led.
[04:59] <ketetha_> Blv3watyr, and i have no lcue what that is. so ya cant help ya there. haha.
[04:59] <Blv3Watyr> think ubuntu will use dapper package manager... or.. some other difference?
[05:00] <ian_> vjjg
[05:00] <Blv3Watyr> lol
[05:00] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Ah, its read only tho!
[05:00] <WWW> rpm distro=fedora based
[05:00] <ian_> ghfg hgfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffhjdudjdj
[05:00] <SeraVitae> what is confusing is that i know how to get the led working, but modprobe.d is showing that i have a completely different wifi card.
[05:00] <ian_>  fdhggvhhgg
[05:00] <ian_> cvxcvc
[05:00] <PyroticShadow> Blv3Watyr, why have you been using RPM's?... just convert them to Deb..
[05:00] <ian_> xjhvcxjhvx
[05:00] <WWW> sudo apt-get install alien
[05:00] <ian_> xvcxvcvxcv
[05:00] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, change it then...
[05:00] <Blv3Watyr> erm...
[05:00] <WWW> alien <name of rpm file>
[05:00] <WWW> changes it to deb
[05:00] <ketetha_> rpm2deb?
[05:00] <Stormx2> ian_, what?
[05:01] <fdsd> hey guys, I have a severly damaged harddrive, It is 300gb and I know dd bs=512 if=/dev/hda of=/my/other/harddrive/blah.image conv=noerror,sync would get everything and skip over the bad sectors, but is there a way with dd to just grab the information on the drive and not the whole file system?  since the filesystem is 300gb?  I only have 20gb used on the drive and my backup drive is only 200gb, thanks!
[05:01] <WWW> wow
[05:01] <PyroticShadow> WWW, isn't it "alien  file.rmp -deb" ??
[05:01] <Blv3Watyr> right now, still in suse
[05:01] <Stormx2> ketetha_: alien is for converting rpms to debs
[05:01] <WWW> yes thats what i meant to say
[05:01] <SeraVitae> in modprobe.d, you want me to make a new file for my wifi card?
[05:01] <SeraVitae> but why isnt there one there for my wifi card already?
[05:01] <ketetha_> stormx2, ooh i was like wtf. ok i get it noww. i thought i twas the same concept of mp32ogg
[05:01] <SeraVitae> i mean thre's one for a wifi card in there that i don't even have installed.
[05:01] <Crescendo> Stormx2, I'm opening a PHP file off my FTP now.
[05:01] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Perhaps a errorous driver?
[05:01] <Blv3Watyr> suse is great until you realize the program you want isnt preinstalled...
[05:01] <WWW> fdsd, try posting that on forums
[05:01] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Precisely, But, Is the LED really that big of an issue?
[05:02] <Jy> anyone know if ubuntu has like a network install iso.. like fedora has boot.iso that is 6 megs to do a http install?
[05:02] <fdsd> WWW, ok
[05:02] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Its read only, so its pretty useless.
[05:02] <PyroticShadow> Jy, No.
[05:02] <Crescendo> Even so, it didn't come up at all.
[05:02] <WWW> if you google it
[05:02] <ketetha_> what is realplayer? is it just another media player
[05:02] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Possibly tho, you could make a small program which does it.
[05:02] <WWW> there ways to do that
[05:02] <Crescendo> It said loading along the bottom, then it just... didn't open.
[05:02] <Blv3Watyr> suse... 6 cd's...
[05:02] <Stormx2> Crescendo: I could even do one, in bash.
[05:02] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - it's annoying that i have to cat /sys/dev/[.....]  just to see if my wifi is enabled.
[05:02] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, yes.
[05:02] <Blv3Watyr> too much changing.. use the http rpms
[05:02] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Asign it a keyboard shortcut.. and voila ;)
[05:02] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, it's mainly for windows, but available for Linux.
[05:02] <sproingie> Blv3Watyr: debian is something like 12
[05:02] <Blv3Watyr> O.O
[05:02] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Not a very good one ^_^
[05:02] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, OHH. ya. i've used it. i hate it.
[05:02] <Crescendo> Stormx2, I'm not a coder exactly, and I don't know how to do that, either.  Perhaps you can point me in the right direction?
[05:03] <SeraVitae> and PyroticShadow, I already have the command for enabling the LED. that's not the issue, im scared as to why modprobe.d lists a wifi card i don't own.
[05:03] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, it should be automatically enabled when you boot up.. correct?..
[05:03] <SeraVitae> and doesn't list my card.
[05:03] <ketetha_> stormx2, haha i always stuck to WindowsMediaPlayer
[05:03] <randomized> bye all
[05:03] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Oh, I don't think that should harm anything, but that's just me.
[05:03] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow, maybe i should restate my question a bit more suitably..
[05:03] <sproingie> ok, gaim is NOT very fun for irc
[05:03] <Stormx2> ketetha_: I use foobar2000 when on windows, much nicer
[05:03] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, I hate WMP, I hate RealPLayer... all the above...
[05:03] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Perhaps.
[05:03] <Stormx2> sproingie: Agreed. Get xchat.
[05:03] <Blv3Watyr> WMP replacement =MPlayer
[05:03] <WWW> hmm
[05:03] <SeraVitae> /etc/modprobe/<someotherwificard> exists. /etc/modprobe/<mywificard> doesn't exist.
[05:03] <ketetha_> stormx2, never heard of it. haha wish i did. now windows is gone. :)
[05:03] <Crescendo> Stormx2, my workaround has been to wget the entire FTP site recursively and only updated files, and then modify locally, upload each one.
[05:03] <PyroticShadow> sproingie, get on xchat.. it's on there..
[05:04] <WWW> ive never been able to listen to this stream without windows+internet explorer
[05:04] <SeraVitae> changing the options in <someotherwificard> is going to be useless.
[05:04] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, haha i loved it. it was so easy. :) now im in love with amaroK
[05:04] <Crescendo> Would rsync be a better choice, and how would I set it up?
[05:04] <sproingie> Stormx2: i'm aware of other irc apps ... i'm "reviewing" the out-of-the-box stuff on dapper
[05:04] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hmm... I see now... uno momento porfavor..
[05:04] <WWW> go to z1035.com and click listen live
[05:04] <Stormx2> sproingie: Ah I see. Alright.
[05:04] <Crescendo> I've only ever used wget, no experience on rsync.
[05:04] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Try it once, Change options for it, maybe it's just misnamed...
[05:04] <WWW> i cant get it to work
[05:04] <SeraVitae> i added the options line already..
[05:04] <WWW> even on windows+firefox
[05:04] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, now that i installed wine are there going to be alot more windows packages on my synaptic package maanger?
[05:04] <SeraVitae> led no worky.
[05:04] <Stormx2> ketetha_: I use a winamp clone on ubuntu, called Audacious. Its a little like BMP or XMMS
[05:04] <sproingie> Stormx2: actually it's not so terribly bad except for it deciding to make some nicks yellow on a white background
[05:04] <WWW> amarok is great too
[05:04] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, I'm not sure, Most of the time, you just find a HowTo, to install stuff with Wine..
[05:05] <Stormx2> ketetha_: But BMP is a dead project, XMMS is baad, and BMPx is full of nazis
[05:05] <WWW> you can put it on the notification area
[05:05] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Hmm...
[05:05] <ketetha_> stormx2, the one thing i dont like about xmms is that it doesnt show the song list the one thing i don tlike about amaroK is you have to move the songs to the play list
[05:05] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Uno Momento, Por Favor.
[05:05] <Stormx2> sproingie: haha. Well I don't get on with it.
[05:05] <SeraVitae> np
[05:05] <Crescendo> Stormx2, what do you use over XMMS?
[05:05] <Blv3Watyr> amarok mp3's, MPlayer all other
[05:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, haha im going to go look into audacious
[05:05] <sproingie> gaim's ability to save conversations with drag and drop is pretty nifty
[05:05] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Guess what.
[05:05] <SeraVitae> mm?
[05:05] <Crescendo> Gaim = the win
[05:05] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, ahh i see. :)
[05:05] <Stormx2> Crescendo: Audacious. Very good media player. last.fm support in the box, some transparency support, very lightweight, etc...
[05:05] <SeraVitae> something ironic like you have that card too?
[05:06] <ketetha_> sproingie, agreeed
[05:06] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, My modprobe.d shows the same thing, ipw3945, when I have a ipw2200, just as you do.. :)
[05:06] <Crescendo> F00k, why is XChat correctiing my teh?
[05:06] <SeraVitae> Yep.
[05:06] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Yep.
[05:06] <Stormx2> GAIM is ok for MSN/AIM/YIM ^_^ xchat is best for IRC
[05:06] <SeraVitae> thought so :)
[05:06] <Crescendo> It's t e h, not the.
[05:06] <Kaja> lol
[05:06] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, so it's all gravy :)
[05:06] <ketetha_> stormx2, does it play mp3s or have a plugin. becaue i have to convert and that annoys me
[05:06] <axisme> lol crescendo, annoying isnt it
[05:06] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - well, my led doens't work. :P
[05:06] <Stormx2> ketetha_: audacious-media-player.org, you'll need to compile
[05:06] <ketetha_> xchat is FUNNN
[05:06] <Kaja> Crescendo, Settings -> Advanced -> Auto Replace
[05:06] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Not a huge issue, is it?
[05:06] <Crescendo> How to turn off spelling correction...
[05:06] <Crescendo> =D
[05:06] <sproingie> Stormx2: ubuntu comes with nothing specifically for irc.  i'd have suggested it ship with xchat
[05:06] <Crescendo> Thanks, Kaja
[05:06] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Yes, I prefer IRSSI, but..
[05:06] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Oh yes of course! And you definately need to add mp3 support then, you can get that easy
[05:06] <Kaja> np m8
[05:06] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - sorta. maybe i'm being anal. but i like my led.
[05:06] <Stormx2> !tell ketetha_ about mp3
[05:06] <axisme> ...i prefer konversation
[05:06] <Stormx2> ketetha_: follow the wiki ubuntu just PM'd you.
[05:07] <Crescendo> OMG.  That's the ONLY text replace.
[05:07] <sproingie> oddly enough i actually prefer chatzilla
[05:07] <Crescendo> And of all things.
[05:07] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, hah, I know how it is, I like to have LED's too, but, if it doesn't work, it will not kill you, physically, anyway.. :P
[05:07] <Crescendo> ~_~
[05:07] <Stormx2> KDE Fascist! XD
[05:07] <Kaja> Crescendo, yes.
[05:07] <Jeruvy> Stormx2: is there any player that will work with ipod's for sync'ing, playlists, etc.?
[05:07] <PyroticShadow> sproingie, all personal prefernce.. :)
[05:07] <ketetha_> stormx2, hahaha i've been sent that mp3 thing like 10 times ;) i think i already have it. it just wasnt working for amaroK. what is compiling?
[05:07] <Blv3Watyr> HEIL
[05:07] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - also, pressing the kill switch doesn't change the active/inactive state in network settings.
[05:07] <Blv3Watyr> :}
[05:07] <Crescendo> Teh teh teh.
[05:07] <Crescendo> WOo.
[05:07] <SeraVitae> i can see the killswitch change state from 0 to 2 manually, but i don't think its actually enabling or disabling the card.
[05:07] <Crescendo> Thanks again, Kaja .
[05:07] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Basicly, its turning source code into binary code, so that you can run it.
[05:07] <Kaja> =D
[05:07] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, IRSSI? another chat type?
[05:07] <Kaja> teh!
[05:07] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Hm.. Might have something to do with something, else, I very highly doubt it has anything to do with the ipw3945
[05:07] <sproingie> anyway, the angry fruit salad interface of colored nicks gets somewhat annoying, but i can see its appeal
[05:07] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, TextBased chat..
[05:07] <Kaja> Crescendo, you're welcome =)
[05:07] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its pretty easy, but not as easy as installing something with synaptic
[05:08] <ketetha_> stormx2, haha is there a wiki on compiling?
[05:08] <Crescendo> Apt couldn't find Audacious.
[05:08] <Blv3Watyr> sproingie lol
[05:08] <ketetha_> !compile
[05:08] <Kaja> Colored nicks = lovely
[05:08] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for a pre-built package first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[05:08] <Crescendo> Where do I get it?
[05:08] <sproingie> there's no obvious place to turn it off or set any other preferences other than a few checkboxes in Options
[05:08] <ketetha_> stormx2, just as i thought :)
[05:08] <bmaster> hi
[05:08] <Kaja> Hmm..
[05:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: its dead simple. Usually its sh autogen.sh --> ./configure --> make --> sudo make install
[05:08] <PyroticShadow> bmaster, Hello, need help? ask question and we'll answer accordingly.
[05:08] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, ooh ya i like text tooo that way there isnt too much clutter
[05:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: There are almost always instructions.
[05:08] <Kaja> I don't think colored nicks is even on by default.
[05:08] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Correct.
[05:09] <Stormx2> PyroticShadow: That would annoy the hell out of me if i'd just joined the channel.
[05:09] <ketetha_> Stormx2, HAHAHAHA i love it when people say that. dead. i say that all the time. like me and my friends will be like why ketetha you look dead sexy today
[05:09] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, so is your problem err, persay, 'fixed' for the most part then or is there anything else I can do...
[05:09] <SeraVitae> brb.
[05:09] <sproingie> Kaja: it is on gaim on dapper.  this is a very fresh install, all i've done is change my video drivers and add blender (to test it)
[05:09] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - it may or may not be fixed.
[05:09] <SeraVitae> i can see the -switch- change from 0 to 2 state when i press it
[05:09] <Kaja> sproingie, aah on gaim =)
[05:09] <SeraVitae> but i don't think the card is actually turning on or off.
[05:09] <PyroticShadow> Stormx2, I know, But it's a fact that alot of people sit there and say.. "can I ask a question???"... "helloooo".. etc.. just a fair quick warning, I don't do it to all, barely any for that matter..
[05:10] <Stormx2> Yeah I know I'm not being all too serious
[05:10] <Blv3Watyr> my brain is full... <nip a few channels off....>
[05:10] <Stormx2> Too hot to do that here >.<
[05:10] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - actually take that back, it is working.
[05:10] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, But why would ye' want to turn it off in the first place? :P...
[05:10] <sproingie> changing my driver to use fglrx was certainly not obvious.  the epitome of "edit the obscure text config file"
[05:10] <SeraVitae> just no led. i will have to get some applet thing.
[05:10] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, heh'.. congrats..
[05:10] <sproingie> thankfully i've done it about 234258725 times before
[05:10] <SeraVitae> thanks. brb
[05:10] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, just color it with a marker, same princpal :)
[05:10] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, No problem.
[05:10] <SeraVitae> heh.
[05:10] <PyroticShadow> principal, even..
[05:10] <SeraVitae> i just need an applet thing that shows the state of the card.
[05:10] <SeraVitae> that will be my 'led'.
[05:10] <bmaster> say my internet dialsup the dsl using the password in the modem/router or whatever it is. But i hnever had such bad speeds.. how do i disable the auto dhcpcd and do it manually to try it out
[05:11] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, don't you have a "network connection" on your toolbar??
[05:11] <SeraVitae> erm. no
[05:11] <Stormx2> bmaster: Disable DHCP and use a static internal IP?
[05:11] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, should show two computers, and you can see the info there, packets recieved and sent...
[05:11] <bmaster> Stormx2: well i think the IP would be dynamic but i dont know
[05:11] <PyroticShadow>  SeraVitae right click on your toolbar (wherever you want to place this) and click Add TO Toolbar, and find it in there, there is a bunch of stuff in thee you may like to try out...
[05:11] <SeraVitae> SeraVitae - yeah i didnt have one, but i just added it.
[05:11] <Crescendo> Ugh, Picasa2 for Linux - uses WinE, and closes randomly.
[05:11] <PyroticShadow> there*
[05:11] <Skynet243> hi! can anyone tell me the command to start x-windows from terminal?
[05:11] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, You just told yourself that... Nice..
[05:12] <SeraVitae> heh.
[05:12] <bmaster> Stormx2: what should i do...looks like this modem stores the L/P
[05:12] <frogzoo> Skynet243: startx often - or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[05:12] <Stormx2> bmaster: Your external IP would still be, but if you disable asking DHCP for an interal IP, then it would be an internal static IP
[05:12] <SeraVitae> however it only lists eth0 and lp in the list, not eth1... hmm.
[05:12] <ketetha_> ok lets see. it gave mea .tagz or whatever file when i opened the audacious so noww i go to desktopppp
[05:12] <ketetha_> and ....
[05:12] <Skynet243> frogzoo thanks!
[05:12] <PyroticShadow> Skynet243, most likely "startx", but frogzoo is correct, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start may work also.
[05:12] <bmaster> Stormx2: ok maybe the router is using bad dns servers or something?
[05:12] <Stormx2> bmaster: I wouldn't know. If you're not already there, System > Administration > Networking
[05:12] <ketetha_> extract the file?
[05:12] <SeraVitae> anyhow must brb.
[05:12] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Do you have Eth1 as your Default Device?
[05:12] <ketetha_> stormx2, so you want me to compile the tag file after its downloaded?
[05:13] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - yeah.
[05:13] <PyroticShadow> hmm.. SeraVitae ok, go brb, and I'll think on it..
[05:13] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You extracted the folder to your desktop?
[05:13] <Detox> help cannot get video to wrk on my dell inspirion 2500 have i810 chipset
[05:13] <SeraVitae> but the netowrk applet reflects all my adapters, just doesnt show wifi - i am thinking maybe because the card is not connected to an access point or something, that it might not be in the list.
[05:13] <Stormx2> ketetha_: If you have, cd to it. Easy way to do that is to write "cd " in terminal and drag the folder into it.
[05:13] <ketetha_> stormx2, nope i havent extracted anywhere yet
[05:13] <SeraVitae> haha.
[05:13] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - fixed. :)
[05:13] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Ah ok. Right click > extract here.
[05:13] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, Good, what was it?
[05:14] <Detox> i have my xorg.config open
[05:14] <SeraVitae> the list didn't show it, so i just typed it in.
[05:14] <Detox> what shfould i look for?
[05:14] <Detox> ?
[05:14] <Detox> ?
[05:14] <SeraVitae> it went *bzzp* and listed the card as disabled with signal strength.
[05:14] <ketetha_> stormx2, ok gave me a file folder
[05:14] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, haha, Sweet.
[05:14] <Crescendo> So... do I want the experimental Audacious repos?
[05:14] <ketetha_> stormx2, now i cd. brb
[05:15] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, not so sure the "bzzp" was too healthy, but.. :P
[05:15] <SeraVitae> PyroticShadow - that was wierd. i am still learning about linux, but by talking to you, i was like, doing all this technical stuff and answering my own questions... wierd... thanks for uh, existing. heh. brb ffs.
[05:15] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, do you know about tab completion?.. I noticed you've been actually TYPING peoples names out..
[05:15] <WWW> lol
[05:15] <PyroticShadow> SeraVitae, heh'.. no problem, at least I have one purpose in life.. :)
[05:15] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, type like 3 letters of the persons name then het tab.. KAZAAM!.. it's like magic
[05:16] <Blv3Watyr> hmm typing seems faster
[05:16] <Blv3Watyr> hrm...
[05:16] <sproingie> Blv3Watyr: not for your nick
[05:16] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, nope. i've been typing. there is another way? hehehehehe dumbme. this is like traveling forever in the desert to get to a bucket of wter when there was a lake right beside you
[05:16] <Stormx2> ketetha_: brb too.
[05:16] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, OMG! its so easy! HAHA. yay ;)
[05:16] <m_0_r_0_n> I got an pdf file saved with a windows font (verdana), so I can only see unreadable signs.  What can I do to be able to read the content of that file?
[05:16] <sproingie> i like MOO's system, where it does the completion for you based on best match on any alias someone has
[05:16] <PyroticShadow> heh'.. ketetha_ yep.
[05:17] <WWW> http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2001.11.26.101258.24.html
[05:17] <ketetha_> stormx2, haha okk :)
[05:17] <sproingie> tho it's easy for people to get wrong when someone has a short nick
[05:17] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Alternatively, if your using xchat, double click their name and its copied to clipboard
[05:17] <PyroticShadow> Stormx2, but tab works in xchat too, so why even reach for the mouse ;)
[05:17] <ketetha_> Stormx2, TRUE! haha i did taht tooo
[05:17] <kyo> hi
[05:17] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, haha truee. smarttt.
[05:17] <kyo> haha
[05:17] <Stormx2> Matter of habit for me.
[05:17] <ttyfscker> how is it that you make eterm or aterm transparent without window borders and no titlebar or controls.. so that it goes onto the desktop and looks like the terminal is part of the desktop?
[05:18] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: try xchat --help
[05:18] <Blv3Watyr> lol
[05:18] <PyroticShadow> Stormx2, me on the other hand, I bearly touch the mouse, too many keyboard shortcuts that make my life easy
[05:18] <ketetha_> Stormx2, still brbing? haha i dont thnk so. so whats the next step in compliling this baby
[05:18] <ttyfscker> thanks so much Stormx2
[05:18] <ttyfscker> asswipe
[05:18] <Blv3Watyr> choob
[05:18] <Sasuke> Hello
[05:18] <Blv3Watyr> oi
[05:18] <Sasuke> How do i make it so I can install .rpm files?
[05:19] <ttyfscker> alien
[05:19] <Crescendo> Adding the repositories mentione on the Audacious website, apt-get update, then install audacious fails, E: Broken Packages.
[05:19] <Crescendo> >_
[05:19] <Crescendo> >_>
[05:19] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, did you seriously just call stormx2 an aasswipe?
[05:19] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, get alien.. "sudo apt-get install alien".. and then.. "alien <name.rpm> -deb" iirc.
[05:19] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, i sure did
[05:19] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, haha what did he do to you?
[05:19] <Blv3Watyr> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=choob
[05:19] <ttyfscker> try xchat --help
[05:20] <ttyfscker> being an asshole...
[05:20] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, what do you want to do?
[05:20] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, ooh well thats help. haha he really istn an asshole so just calm down alittle.
[05:20] <Crescendo> That was his honest suggestion...?
[05:20] <ttyfscker> i dont wanna do anything
[05:20] <Blv3Watyr> leave, we all want that of you
[05:20] <sproingie> ttyfscker: uh, maybe he typed it to the wrong person.  seriously, the asshole here is you
[05:20] <ketetha_> PyroticShadow, how is it that you make eterm or aterm transparent without window borders and no titlebar or controls.. so that it goes onto the desktop and looks like the terminal is part of the desktop?
[05:20] <Skynet243> I'm trying to force my screen to use 85hz refresh rate since it's not an option in the GUI, I'm in xorg.conf, and as far as I have understod I need to change the HorizSync and VertRefresh rates, they are 28-64 & 43-60, I tried to change to 85/85, but then xwindows wouldn't start.. anyone know what i need to do?
[05:20] <ketetha_> thats his question
[05:20] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Back
[05:20] <ttyfscker> haha
[05:21] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: Whats the problem?
[05:21] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: "asswipe"
[05:21] <ttyfscker> yea im the asshole.. .who just asks a simple question
[05:21] <ketetha_> Stormx2, he doesnt like your advise :)
[05:21] <WWW> wtf did u just call me a choob?
[05:21] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, Watch profanity.
[05:21] <sproingie> ttyfscker: i might have looked up the answer to the question.  but now, forget it.
[05:21] <ttyfscker> well
[05:21] <ttyfscker> i will forget it
[05:21] <Blv3Watyr> even the names one of those 'get-by-the-filters' offensive profane vulgar type bits of filth
[05:21] <ketetha_> choob?
[05:21] <ketetha_> haha wtf. this is hilarious
[05:22] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, http://www.eterm.org
[05:22] <Blv3Watyr> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=choob
[05:22] <ttyfscker> it ya reckon PyroticShadow
[05:22] <mlehrer> ttyfscker: fwiw i think his original reply to you was meant for someone else - tab completion error or something
[05:22] <Blv3Watyr> :] 
[05:22] <sproingie> urbandictionary has so much random stuff in it
[05:22] <ketetha_> hahaha i have the same question as ttyfscker. i want my terminal to blend to my desktop
[05:22] <odyssey> hello
[05:22] <ketetha_> Stormx2, do you want me to do that configuring thing once i've cd the file
[05:22] <Blv3Watyr> max transparency?
[05:22] <ketetha_> odyssey, heyy
[05:22] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, You just lazy and don't want to do the work for yourself?.. You expect everyone here to do it for you?.. guess again, you be a jerk, such as you are now, you shall not get respect, nor help...
[05:22] <Stormx2> ketetha_: cd inside the directory
[05:22] <ttyfscker> well i might find out how and i might actually be nice enought to share how
[05:22] <Blv3Watyr> all items other than text to max transparency, no border
[05:22] <Stormx2> ketetha_: then ./configure
[05:22] <stefg> Skynet243: resolutions and refesh rates are sort of 'quantized' instead of guessing it would be a better idea to look up the real specs of your monitor (prolly google will tell ) and use the correct values
[05:23] <ttyfscker> instead of refer someone to a webpage
[05:23] <Blv3Watyr> use a client like bitchx
[05:23] <WWW> http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2002.4.4.171525.1527.html
[05:23] <Skynet243> stefg, ok thanks
[05:23] <Blv3Watyr> if the name doestn bother
[05:23] <ketetha_> stormx2, it says no such file as ./configure
[05:23] <ketetha_> there is anothre folder there
[05:23] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, Most of us can google and figure it out on our own, and one way or another, I referred you to a webpage, because it is called HELP, SUPPORT, I will not do it for you.
[05:23] <ketetha_> Stormx2, oing to cd into that and then try it
[05:23] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Oh? Go inside that folder then..
[05:23] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, especially the way you are acting to everyone else in the room.
[05:23] <sproingie> WWW: i think that website is ironically named
[05:23] <PyroticShadow> Hobbsee, Watch ttyfscker Please.
[05:24] <JoeCoder> Can anyone help me get my ati video driver working so that I don't have to rely on mesa any more? (Radeon x600)
[05:24] <Kaja> =D
[05:24] <WWW> sproingie, yea, i know
[05:24] <rasputnik> does anyone know of something visio-like ? not dia, that's butt ugly
[05:24] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, why are you so hostile anyway
[05:24] <sproingie> !ati

[05:24] <Blv3Watyr> lmao
[05:24] <cdubya> rasputnik, kivio?
[05:24] <ttyfscker> well its like this PyroticShadow if you have the answer i need readily availabe, you could be nice enough to save me looking at tons of pages of useless shit.. or getting search results from google that are irrelevant like we all do..
[05:24] <JoeCoder> ubotu been there and done that.  Also tried quite a few other sites
[05:24] <ubotu> I know nothing about been there and done that.  Also tried quite a few other sites - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:24] <rasputnik> cdubya: I'll give it a whirl, ta
[05:24] <cdubya> np
[05:25] <JoeCoder> modprobe fglrx fails
[05:25] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i went inside and it still says no such file or diretory
[05:25] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: Don't swear. You can get kicked from here for saying c**p (with the stars)
[05:25] <sproingie> rasputnik: there's a java package that does graph editing that's awesome ... i'll try to remember its name, but googling for "java graph editor" might turn it up
[05:25] <sproingie> rasputnik: it has a "Y" in it is all i remember :p
[05:25] <Stormx2> ketetha_ is only 12, he doesn't need to be subject to this language ^_^
[05:25] <rasputnik> sproingie: that narrows it down :D thanks
[05:25] <Blv3Watyr> ~help
[05:25] <PyroticShadow> Ohr it's like this ttyfscker, If sombody had the information readily available, they would have helped you, but you don't call people an asswipe, or curse out others, You take what you get, with a grain of salt, and I gave you a link, that has Theme,s so you could CHOOSE which you liked, and you could use it, Continue argueing, and you will be kicked, This conversation is over.
[05:25] <ttyfscker> so...  i didnt know i joined sunday service when i came in this room..
[05:25] <Blv3Watyr> !help
[05:25] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[05:25] <sproingie> rasputnik: hey at least it doesn't start with "J"
[05:25] <Stormx2> ketetha_: The .tar.gz is on your desktop yes?
[05:26] <ketetha_> Stormx2,  hahahahaa you have my gender confused :) hahahha man you crack me upp pshh i cuss everyday
[05:26] <Sasuke> I dled a LAME .rpm file...im trying to install it,but wont let me copy files into the /usr folder.
[05:26] <ketetha_> Stormx2, yepp afterextraction
[05:26] <sproingie> rasputnik: first hit, yEd.  it's pretty nice.
[05:26] <ttyfscker> ok PyroticShadow  gave me the link to eterm.org when i asked something about eterm
[05:26] <rasputnik> sproingie: cheers, I'll grab that too
[05:26] <ttyfscker> who woulda guessed
[05:26] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Right click the .tar.gz, select "Extract Here"
[05:26] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You should now have a folder on your desktop called audacious-(some numbers)
[05:26] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, and it has the transparency themes, you were looking for, your question was answered, now be on your way.
[05:27] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, did you convert it with alien, like I suggested?
[05:27] <ttyfscker> no i wasnt just looking for transparancy themes
[05:27] <JoeCoder> can anyone tell me why modprobe fglrx fails?
[05:27] <Stormx2> ketetha_: In terminal, cd ~/Desktop/audacious<TAB>
[05:27] <ketetha_> Stormx2, audacious-1.1.0.tgz_FILES yepp
[05:27] <grogoreo> hi
[05:27] <ketetha_> ok wait one second
[05:27] <ttyfscker> i was looking the arguments that you start it with to make it lose its titlebar and everything else
[05:27] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Shouldn't be called that.
[05:27] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Sure it finished extracting?
[05:27] <ttyfscker> to make it 100% blended with the desktop
[05:27] <sproingie> JoeCoder: not without an error message.  you do have to be root, first
[05:27] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, And that is in the documentation at eterm.org, if you had looked.
[05:27] <Blv3Watyr> !help dict
[05:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about help dict - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:27] <Some_Person> Ok, I got Ubuntu installed and Windows is in the MBR
[05:27] <sproingie> JoeCoder: i found i had to reboot before i got it working though, then it just silently worked
[05:27] <Blv3Watyr> !dict
[05:28] <ubotu> I know nothing about dict - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:28] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: transparent text too? ;-)
[05:28] <ttyfscker> are you so sure of that PyroticShadow
[05:28] <ketetha_> Stormx2, yepp i believe so. here let me try againn
[05:28] <Stormx2> Some_Person: Theres a wiki page on it
[05:28] <Some_Person> Now I need to get my stupid non-free modem driver
[05:28] <ttyfscker> Stormx2, yes i want my text to be transparent as well
[05:28] <Stormx2> Some_Person: wiki.ubuntu.com something like "RecoveringGRUBAfterAWindowsInstall"
[05:28] <JoeCoder> sproingie I'm root.  "FATAL: Module fglrx not found."
[05:28] <ketetha_> Stormx2, yepp thats what its called
[05:28] <buzzed> any tips for connecting to wifi... using wifi-radar... connects to some networks and not others....
[05:28] <rasputnik> ttyfscker: how are you going to read it then
[05:28] <ketetha_> Stormx2, here im going to go back to th download pgae make sure i chose the right one
[05:28] <Some_Person> i want windows in the mbr
[05:28] <JoeCoder> sproingie: haven't tried restarting yet.
[05:28] <sproingie> JoeCoder: did you install it?  there's actually two drivers, an xorg driver and a kernel driver for 3d
[05:28] <ttyfscker> rasputnik, do you really think i meant that
[05:28] <buzzed> while other people connect just fine...
[05:28] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, Yes, Now please, either A. Calm down, or B. Leave.
[05:28] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Did you follow my way of extracting it?
[05:29] <ketetha_> Stormx2, http://audacious-media-player.org/Downloads which onee?
[05:29] <rasputnik> ttyfscker: no one knows what you mean.
[05:29] <sproingie> JoeCoder: holon, i'll see what the package is for the fglrx kernel module
[05:29] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: do i have to type the path as well?
[05:29] <ketetha_> Stormx2, yep right click extract?
[05:29] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: now would be a good time to stop
[05:29] <Stormx2> ketetha_: yeah
[05:29] <JoeCoder> sproingie: I've installed the driver. apt-get can't find a driver for my version of the kernel
[05:29] <ttyfscker> no i think its just no one knows the answer
[05:29] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, Just  cd to the directory where the RPM file is at, and then alien it :)
[05:29] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its odd that it ends in _FILES
[05:29] <Some_Person> urgh, why is my modem driver's free version capped at 14.4 kbps???
[05:29] <grogoreo> I'm trying to install gimmie from CVS and I've installed a load of packages but when I try to run autogen.sh I get to the part where I need the python headers, what package would that be? python2.4-dev?
[05:29] <Kaja> xgl/compiz sure makes things transparent =G
[05:29] <rasputnik> ttyfscker: i think it's everyone has told you to read the site, so do that.
[05:29] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: if noone knows try back later or try the forums
[05:29] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, I sent you to eterm.org, which holds the information you need, why don't you listen?
[05:29] <sproingie> JoeCoder: what do you get from uname -a?
[05:29] <PyroticShadow> ttyfscker, your just causing trouble.
[05:29] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, SHUT UP ALREADY! LEAVE GOODNESS GRACIOUS GREAT BALLS OF FIRE I CANT BELIEVE YOUR STILL HERE MAKING A BAD NAME FOR YOURSELF
[05:29] <ttyfscker> its not important enough to read 100 pages of BS
[05:29] <JoeCoder> sproingie: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) Fails to find a package
[05:29] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: How do i cd to the dir? >_> im new to linux lol
[05:30] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: everything about your kernel
[05:30] <PyroticShadow> ketetha_, Calm down, Please.
[05:30] <sproingie> ketetha_: please don't yell
[05:30] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol, but don't shout.
[05:30] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, where is the RPM located?
[05:30] <rasputnik> ttyfscker: then stop talking about it
[05:30] <WWW> this site is hilarious
[05:30] <WWW> http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2002.8.1.185859.3627.html
[05:30] <JoeCoder> sproingie: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[05:30] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: my desktop
[05:30] <ketetha_> pyroticshadow, j'em excuse
[05:30] <gnomefreak> WWW: join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:30] <Blv3Watyr> this bot has no dictionary commands?
[05:30] <odyssey> hello
[05:30] <JoeCoder> sproingie: sorry, wrong line
[05:30] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, "cd Desktop"
[05:30] <ketetha_> sproingie, j'em excuse jutst cant believe he's still here
[05:30] <sproingie> JoeCoder: that should download it ... did it?
[05:30] <JoeCoder> sproingie: Linux eric 2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT Fri Jul 7 19:27:00 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:30] <elkbuntu> ketetha_, dont feed the troll
[05:30] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, are you trying earn your @?
[05:30] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, then "alien <file.rpm> --deb" I think... I'm not 100% sure..
[05:30] <Blv3Watyr> lol
[05:30] <jrib> ttyfscker: here are some decent settings for you to get started, http://www.tenr.de/files/dot.Xdefaults ,  all the stuff is in the manpage for the terminals though and load them with 'xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefauls' after you save it
[05:30] <ketetha_> Stormx2, hehe sorry.
[05:31] <odyssey> i have a quick question about emulators
[05:31] <kibab> Hey, how can I switch the default bootloader from lilo to grub? (I installed grub and had it working fine... but after a kernel update, it's back to using lilo, which I would like to avoid in the future)
[05:31] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: bash: cd: desktop: No such file or directory
[05:31] <Some_Person> why is Linuxant charging for a damn modem driver???
[05:31] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, what.
[05:31] <ttyfscker> jrib,  thanks...
[05:31] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: now ive asked you to stop now please stop
[05:31] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, capital D
[05:31] <sproingie> kibab: uninstalling lilo and installing grub should just work
[05:31] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, "cd Desktop"
[05:31] <Sasuke> ok
[05:31] <JoeCoder> sproingie: Couldn't find package linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386
[05:31] <ttyfscker> its nice to have something to narrow it down to know how to find what your looking for in specific
[05:31] <kibab> sproingie: hmm.... I thought I did... but maybe I left lilo installed.
[05:31] <JoeCoder> sproingie: and I have the restricted repositories added.
[05:31] <odyssey> what software emulators do you guys suggest
[05:31] <ketetha_> Stormx2, could it be that my synaptic package manager is open and thats screwing it up?
[05:31] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its a bit of a wierd rule with trolls... but basicly they get warned nicely once, then ignored.
[05:32] <sproingie> JoeCoder: do you have restricted uncommented in sources.list?
[05:32] <Stormx2> ketetha_: No.
[05:32] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: you are muted for 10 minutes now
[05:32] <rasputnik> ketetha_: just type '/ig ttyfscker' . it's really not hard
[05:32] <PyroticShadow> Thank you gnomefreak.
[05:32] <Stormx2> ketetha_: get rid of the archive and the directory. Re-download the .tar.gz to your desktop. right click > extract here
[05:32] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Seems a little odd....
[05:32] <ketetha_> Stormx2, heh ok
[05:32] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Synaptic shouldn't interfere with archives tho
[05:33] <ketetha_> rasputnik, i didnt know you could do that! thanksss
[05:33] <sproingie> JoeCoder: open up /etc/apt/sources.list in an editor, and add "restricted"  after the word  "main"
[05:33] <bmaster_> what is casette tape audio quality
[05:33] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, work?
[05:33] <JoeCoder> sproingie: apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-23-386 works just fine, but apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386 doesn't.
[05:33] <buzzed> so my major issue is that Metacity takes over 2 minutes to startup , any thoughts?
[05:33] <sproingie> JoeCoder: did you apt-get update?
[05:33] <JoeCoder> sproingie: yes
[05:33] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: it just shows me all the alien commands
[05:33] <Stormx2> JoeCoder: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:33] <ketetha_> Stormx2, ok its downloading i'lltell you what happened.  closed it just incasse
[05:33] <Stormx2> ketetha_: OK ^_^
[05:33] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, can you tell me which one has deb in it?
[05:34] <sproingie> JoeCoder: hm, you know i had exactly this problem when i installed a kernel from seveas's repo and then downgraded ... packages seemed to disappear
[05:34] <sproingie> JoeCoder: the bad news is, i didn't fix it, i just reinstalled, since it was a fresh install
[05:34] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i know whats wrong. its not .tar.gz its just .tgz
[05:34] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Basicly the main package managers that interfere with eachother are synaptic, aptitude, apt-get, update-manager and anything like Automatix
[05:34] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, it may be "alien -deb <file.rpm>"
[05:34] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow:   -d, --to-deb              Generate a Debian deb package (default).
[05:34] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Same thing.
[05:34] <JoeCoder> sproingie: This is a fresh install. I haven't used any non-main repositories except what easy-ubuntu needed.
[05:34] <sproingie> JoeCoder: you might want to post the question on the forums (not as an ati driver question, but more of a missing package one)
[05:34] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, there you go
[05:34] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i see. okk im extractingg
[05:34] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, "alien <file.rpm> -d"
[05:35] <Stormx2> ketetha_: if this doesn't work, i'll tell you how to use SVN
[05:35] <sproingie> JoeCoder: it's weird, because i have that package, but it also disappeared on me once.  i sure hope it doesn't happen again
[05:35] <ketetha_> Stormx2, audacious-1.1.0. yaya your right. it wasnt finished. it had to do some extra stuff
[05:35] <Sasuke> Must run as root to convert to deb format (or you may use fakeroot).
[05:35] <ketetha_> Stormx2, so cd?
[05:35] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, I knew that was coming
[05:35] <odyssey> can anyone suggest a good emulator to play windows games with
[05:35] <sproingie> JoeCoder: i suppose you could try downloading the .deb manually
[05:35] <JoeCoder> sproingie: would it be easier to upgrade or dowgrade my kernel to one that has that package?
[05:35] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, "sudo alien file.rpm -d"
[05:35] <Sasuke> lol
[05:36] <JoeCoder> sproingie: good idea. Any suggestions of where to search?
[05:36] <sproingie> JoeCoder: i wouldn't stray from the official kernels, not with an ati card
[05:36] <cdubya> !wpa
[05:36] <ketetha_> stormx2, yess and its configuring. all this for a media player :)

[05:36] <Sh4d0x> hi all
[05:36] <Sh4d0x> tiny question
[05:36] <Blv3Watyr> ello
[05:36] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Well yeah... But you get used to it
[05:36] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, ask away.
[05:36] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You'll have some missing packages tho, no doubt.
[05:36] <PyroticShadow> wb Seveas
[05:36] <Redman276> is there an  AVI to Mpeg converter for ubuntu
[05:36] <bmaster_> odyssey: depends what game type....cedega windows emulator?
[05:36] <JoeCoder> sproingie: and like you said, I think that package existed a few days ago. I messed up my system then and had to do a reinstall.
[05:36] <sproingie> ok, gaim apparently lacks stalk hilighting, another minus for irc.  think it's well-established that gaim's sub-par for irc
[05:36] <Sh4d0x> my dapper dragon cd arrived today, how do i upgrade my breezy to dapper dragon via cd?
[05:37] <odyssey> its medal of honor
[05:37] <Sasuke> PyroticShadow: lame_3.96.1-1_i386.deb generated <-- does that mean it worked?
[05:37] <odyssey> and il2 stormavic
[05:37] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, yep.
[05:37] <ketetha_> Stormx2, hehe.dagumit it says cant find glib2/gtk2/pango
[05:37] <Sh4d0x> i was reading the wiki page about it, it's just i'm not that sure :-D
[05:37] <Sasuke> yay! ^_^
[05:37] <sproingie> JoeCoder: yep, and i have no idea what's up with it.  you could try changing your repo source, or some debian wizard here could tell you how to regenerate your package cache from scratch
[05:37] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, then do "sudo dpkg -i lame_3.96.1-1_i386.deb"
[05:37] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Let me check the package you need
[05:37] <ketetha_> stormx2, okkk
[05:37] <bmaster_> odyssey: jus sec
[05:38] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, Shouldn't you be able to open up Package Manager, and do a Dist-upgrade that way?
[05:38] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Rule of thumb when ./configure says you're missing package, you need it and the -dev package!
[05:38] <JoeCoder> sproingie: could I remove all repositories, update, add repositories, and update again?
[05:38] <rub> i want to have one link between my server and behind them one link between my lans, i have both SuSefirewall2 running on my serverm i have configured my openvpn, i have ping between my server only, how can i have one link between my lans, could someone help me ?
[05:38] <odyssey> ok
[05:38] <sproingie> JoeCoder: try it with a different mirror
[05:38] <ketetha_> sudo apt-get install -y pango?
[05:38] <cdubya> Sasuke, are you creating your own package for a specific reason......or for mp3 support
[05:38] <Sasuke> mp3 support
[05:38] <grogoreo> has anyone manage to run gimmie on dapper, here?
[05:38] <cdubya> Sasuke, why not just install lame via apt?
[05:38] <nvictor> saluut
[05:39] <Sasuke> whats apt?
[05:39] <ketetha_> Stormx2, sudo apt-get install -y pango? my synaptic package manager runs so slowly
[05:39] <Stormx2> ketetha_: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[05:39] <cdubya> Sasuke, you familiar with Terminal at all?
[05:39] <nvictor> j'aimerai savoir comment on ajoute des fichiers par connection ssh
[05:39] <bmaster_> odyssey: you might have to pay a subscription fee. dont know if you can get it for free off some other site. http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/
[05:39] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, i don't know that's why i asked :-P  but i'm open it at the moment
[05:39] <PyroticShadow> Sasuke, "apt-get install"
[05:39] <sproingie> amazing how much debian stuff i've forgotten
[05:39] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Then sudo apt-get install libpango1.0-dev
[05:39] <ketetha_> Stormx2, okk ill be right back i'll tell you when im done
[05:39] <Seveas> sproingie, just enable only the extras section and nothing will be dragged in
[05:39] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, go to places/administration , and it should be near the bottom, package manager, or something, and if you open it, it should show on the top "An upgrade is available to 6.06"
[05:39] <cdubya> Sasuke, sudo apt-get install lame     <---type that in a terminal window
[05:39] <bmaster_> odyssey: i recommend paying subscription if it supports your game to avoid hassle
[05:40] <Stormx2> ketetha_: And finally sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-0-dev
[05:40] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Once you've done those 3, try again
[05:40] <odyssey> ok
[05:40] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, euhm it doesn't show "an upgrade is available"   can't i do in the terminal by entering "alternate install cd" or something like that?
[05:40] <PyroticShadow> whoever asked the question about converting avi to mpeg this might help http://jadmadi.net/2006/06/22/ubuntu-howto-converting-flv-to-mpg/
[05:41] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, I'm sure there is a way, but I'm not entirely sure how, one second
[05:41] <Onur-Yerlikaya> :D
[05:41] <Onur-Yerlikaya> hi all
[05:41] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, go to places/administration/update manager
[05:41] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, i'm sure there is, my friend did it also, he asked here also how to do it
[05:41] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, should be there..
[05:41] <Onur-Yerlikaya> i have a problem on ubuntu
[05:41] <PyroticShadow> Onur-Yerlikaya, ask away
[05:41] <Stormx2> ketetha_:It may seem tedious, but the fact is sooner or later you'll need these packages anyway ^_^
[05:42] <Stormx2> Onur-Yerlikaya: Ah ha! Tell us what...
[05:42] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, already did that part, but there is no message that sais "upgrade available"
[05:42] <bmaster_> Onur-Yerlikaya: what is the problem?
[05:42] <Onur-Yerlikaya> http://rafb.net/paste/results/6fZxjb77.html
[05:42] <Onur-Yerlikaya> please look at this
[05:42] <Stormx2> OK
[05:42] <Onur-Yerlikaya> i have a problem on installing mysql on ubuntu
[05:42] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, type this in xchat "/exec -o uname -a"
[05:42] <sproingie> Seveas: cool.   i think i dragged in a kernel from that repo once and it was not a happy story :-/
[05:42] <ketetha_> Stormx2, :)
[05:42] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow,  in xchat?
[05:43] <Seveas> sproingie, that's impossible - I never had custom kernels
[05:43] <sproingie> Seveas: i better hold off on getting w32codecs til i finish my "review"
[05:43] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, err, or are you not using xchat to chat here...
[05:43] <ketetha_> Stormx2, you know i'm a girl right
[05:43] <Stormx2> Onur-Yerlikaya: Try enabling multiverse and universe...
[05:43] <sproingie> Seveas: huh.  it was the same version as the current one but it claimed it was from your repo
[05:43] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, yes, but it's kinde strange :-D code belongs normally in a terminal, not?
[05:43] <Onur-Yerlikaya> Stormx2, what is it?
[05:43] <Stormx2> ketetha_: I do now!
[05:43] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, hold on i'll type it
[05:43] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: you have been unmuted
[05:43] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, k.
[05:43] <Stormx2> !universe
[05:43] <Sh4d0x> Linux R2-dox 2.6.12-10-386 #1 Mon Jun 12 22:04:42 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:43] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[05:44] <sproingie> Seveas: maybe i had corruption in the package cache ... that would be A Bad Thing ...
[05:44] <ttyfscker> thanks gnomefreak
[05:44] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, hmm...
[05:44] <Seveas> sproingie, I find that very hard to believe, I know what's in my repo and the kernel is not
[05:44] <ketetha_> Stormx2,  hehe cool beans
[05:44] <ttyfscker> but still eterm.org didnt have the answer i needed.. and the link to the info on how to polish eterm is down..
[05:44] <sproingie> Seveas: i'll take your word for it.  but something was messed up, if only on my end
[05:44] <Stormx2> ketetha_: ;-)
[05:44] <stopher> Hey guys, I'm running a patch for ubuntu and it's stored in /etc/httpd/src/modules/files and tells me to run command: patch -pO in /usr/local/httpd  but nothing happens with either. Can I get some help please?
[05:44] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Hows it going? I know it seems a bit tedious, but before package management, this is how all apps were installed
[05:44] <PyroticShadow> stopher, what do you mean nothing happens? does it enter to the next line?
[05:45] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, well... hmm...
[05:45] <Stormx2> ketetha_: And plus you can get slick new versions of gaim this way
[05:45] <stopher> says -bash: <command>: command not found
[05:45] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, ask your question again, I gaurantee there'll be somone that can help...
[05:45] <frogzoo> stopher: usually:    patch -p0 < patchfile
[05:45] <PyroticShadow> stopher, hmm...
[05:45] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, wiki sais i have to enter "alternate install cd" in a terminal
[05:45] <PyroticShadow> stopher, ^ frogzoo 's most likely right.. I know nothing of it :P
[05:45] <Stormx2> stopher: Why did you try and run <command> ?
[05:45] <sproingie> stopher: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[05:45] <ketetha_> Stormx2, seriously? new versions of gaim? funn. i amm donee =] 
[05:45] <stopher> so i need to type in: patch -p0 apache_1.3.9-VR.patch?
[05:45] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, I'm not entirely sure, just re-ask your question...
[05:45] <ketetha_> now im working on the configure again
[05:46] <stopher> -bash: run: command not found
[05:46] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, ok, thnx anyway
[05:46] <Stormx2> ketetha_: pastebin the bit it gave you at the end
[05:46] <frogzoo> patch -p0 < apache_1.3.9-VR.patch
[05:46] <sproingie> stopher: no, don't type the word "run", jsut what's after it
[05:46] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i like the terminal better then using package manager. the old error?
[05:46] <Sh4d0x> can somebody help me out with my upgrade? pls?
[05:46] <PyroticShadow> Sh4d0x, Sorry I couldn't help further.
[05:47] <Sh4d0x> PyroticShadow, no problem, thnx you give it a try to help me out
[05:47] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Did you say its done ./configure'ing?
[05:47] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Or did it give you an error at the end?
[05:47] <stopher> -bash: patch: command not found
[05:47] <ttyfscker> gaim stays the same regardless of the version.. they never add any new features that you can actually benefit from in it..  it needs video and voice support in the actual gaim project... not the discontinued fork gaim+vv
[05:47] <mDot> new kernal broke vmware server
[05:47] <ketetha_> Stormx2, its done and gave me a new error
[05:47] <ketetha_> cannot find libglade
[05:47] <anathema> I'm tryin to install dapper on a server..but in dapper its some weird gnome install..no way to select server install?
[05:47] <JoeCoder> sproingie: beautiful, finding some mirrors worked: http://legend.me.uiuc.edu/wiki/index.php/Kubuntu_mirrors
[05:47] <anathema> and the parition editor is gnome based too, you used to be able to set up dm raid and install to that, is this also no longer possible ?
[05:48] <Kaja> anathema, try server install cd? or alternate install cd?
[05:48] <sproingie> JoeCoder: i think something funny is going on in apt-land, since i had a similar problem
[05:48] <anathema> is there a install cd kaja, that has the exact same installer as breezy?
[05:48] <ketetha_> Stormx2, cannot find libglade
[05:48] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Again, you can use synaptic package manager to find the package you need. but here ya go: "sudo apt-get install libglade2-dev"
[05:48] <sproingie> ok time to really go now
[05:48] <Kaja> anathema, that's alternate install cd.
[05:48] <Blv3Watyr> is there any difference for kubuntu besides wm and wm components?
[05:48] <anathema> oh cool
[05:48] <anathema> okay ill download that] 
[05:49] <gnomefreak> Blv3Watyr: what else is there?
[05:49] <stopher> couldn't find package "build-essentials:
[05:49] <Blv3Watyr> libs...
[05:49] <bmaster_> Blv3Watyr: well its a lot of bulk for me. personal preference really
[05:49] <gnomefreak> Blv3Watyr: uses libqt instead of glib
[05:49] <JoeCoder> sproingie: Will it harm anything to keep the original servers and the mirrors both in my sources.list ?
[05:49] <gnomefreak> oops libgtk
[05:49] <Blv3Watyr> i prefer kde personally
[05:49] <snowblink> stopher, build-essential
[05:49] <anathema> stopher: isnt it just build essential?
[05:49] <ketetha_> Stormx2, how do you know which ones are right? i noticed all te ones you gae me said -dev
[05:49] <anathema> yeah
[05:49] <gilianima> how to erase a CD-RW ?
[05:50] <kyo> see you then\
[05:50] <Blv3Watyr> kde is the reason i didnt go for ubuntu after dling it
[05:50] <kyo> haha
[05:50] <stopher> okay that worked
[05:50] <kyo> exit
[05:50] <Stormx2> ketetha_: When you compile, and it asks you for something, it really means the -dev package
[05:50] <bmaster_> gilianima: easiest way is with cdrecord
[05:50] <PyroticShadow> well, I've done enough helping today, I shall return later
[05:50] <Foobal> Blv3Watyr: yeah kde is SO scary you better not even install the gnome ubuntu :(
[05:50] <bmaster_> gilianima: cdrecord blank=fast
[05:50] <jrib> Blv3Watyr: that's why there is kubuntu
[05:50] <Stormx2> ketetha_: ;-) Rule of thumb right there. Of course you need the main package too, but the -dev depends on that and hence it will be installed.
[05:50] <Sh4d0x> c'mon someone in here should know how i upgrade my breezy to dapper from cd
[05:50] <PyroticShadow> L8R3z~
[05:50] <usama> hi all
[05:51] <stopher> w00t it's installing patch
[05:51] <Blv3Watyr> Foobal: i meant i like kde
[05:51] <ketetha_> Stormx2, so your knocking down two birds with one stone?
[05:51] <usama> has anyone used Rhythmbox? what is the shorcut key for playing next and previous songs?
[05:51] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: in your sources.list file comment out all repos except the cdrom one and sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get dist-upgrade  (it will than tell you to insert cd
[05:51] <Foobal> Blv3Watyr: sue your mom for dropping you on your head as a baby
[05:51] <Blv3Watyr> i used to not want a debian based distro cause i didnt know about the package managers and stuff
[05:51] <Blv3Watyr> GNOME is for kids
[05:51] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, its because when you build from source they depend on the development files to build it...so if it says you need libxml  then you need libxml-dev..
[05:52] <gnomefreak> Blv3Watyr: please continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:52] <bmaster_> Sh4d0x: you install server. and then change all the names breezy in your /etc/apt/sources.list to dapper. apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:52] <stopher> oookay i typed: patch -p0 apache_1.3.9-VR.patch and the system froze
[05:52] <gnomefreak> oops yeah dont forget to change breezy to dapper
[05:52] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Sort of.
[05:52] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, haha i thought you were storm for a second. thankss. your still here? sorry bu ti ignored you i couldnt ake you fighting and caausing DRAMA -lagunabeach. haha
[05:53] <Blv3Watyr> o.o
[05:53] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it says error cannot find taglib. ok wait one second DONT tell me the answer im goign to try to figure this one out
[05:53] <Nutubuntu> Hello all - upgraded to Dapper and found that tetex would not install. It still won't. Has *anyone* run across this? I've searched for info and not found anything that helped
[05:53] <jrib> Stormx2: you forgot the <, it's not frozen, you should be able to hit ctrl-c
[05:53] <Stormx2> jrib: Pardon?
[05:53] <stopher> okay jrib: i think that was to me :P
[05:53] <gnomefreak> Foobal: you have been muted for 10 minutes you should know better than to talk like that in here
[05:53] <h3h_timo> im having a problem with my sound, as soon as i boot up, i hear the intro sounds, and all that fun stuff, but then ill start playing a song and about 2 seconds after i start it, it will stop playing, and then sound will be off for the rest of my session
[05:53] <jrib> Stormx2: oops :)  wrong name, yeah stopher
[05:54] <FunkyDiscoMan> is anyone familiar with xmodmap ?
[05:54] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Hint, most libraries start with lib ;-)
[05:54] <ttyfscker> the best way to find the files you need in the repositories are if it ask you for something from the source you are building..  if it asks for lets say libxml  and you dont know what the package name is exactly.. you can apt-cache search lib xml |grep devel    and you wont return as many results. and the ones you do will be easier filtered
[05:54] <jrib> FunkyDiscoMan: maybe, what about it?
[05:54] <stopher> patch -p0 < apache_1.3.9-VR.patch
[05:54] <FunkyDiscoMan> jrib im having problem with multimedia keys
[05:54] <jrib> stopher: right
[05:55] <usama> can anyone guide me about rhythmbox?
[05:55] <FunkyDiscoMan> jrib graham@astrangepoint:~$ xmodmap -pk |grep Volume
[05:55] <FunkyDiscoMan>     174         0x1008ff11 (XF86AudioLowerVolume)
[05:55] <FunkyDiscoMan>     175         0x1008ff13 (XF86AudioRaiseVolume)
[05:55] <FunkyDiscoMan>     176         0x1008ff13 (XF86AudioRaiseVolume)
[05:55] <Stormx2> !paste
[05:55] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:55] <ketetha_> Stormx2, sudo apt-get install libtag1-dev
[05:55] <Stormx2> ketetha_: :D Thats the one!
[05:55] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, because when your building from source the naming convention that is used for dependencies in the source packages will be way different than the way ubuntu names their packages... well in most cases its like that
[05:55] <FunkyDiscoMan> jrib how do i clear the keycode 175?
[05:55] <ketetha_> Stormx2, haha heck yess.
[05:55] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lolzorz
[05:56] <stopher> jrib: i'm not sure what file i need to patch
[05:56] <ketetha_> Stormx2, haha you lost me after lol. zorz does that stand for something after lol. :)
[05:56] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, i understand :) thankss
[05:56] <Some_Person> What kernel version comes with dapper?
[05:56] <gnomefreak> Some_Person: 2.6.15
[05:56] <usama> apt-cache search is not finding ncurses-devel, from where i can download it?
[05:57] <FunkyDiscoMan> Stormx ta didnt know that existed
[05:57] <usama> Some_Person: 26.615-23
[05:57] <Prozac> 3.615
[05:57] <gnomefreak> 2.6.15-23 is on the cd iirc and 2.6.15-26 from updates
[05:57] <Some_Person> 2.6.15-?-386
[05:57] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, bmaster_  thnQ it did worked, i'm upgrading to dapper dragon at the moment, thnx again
[05:57] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Yeah but, it sounds cool!
[05:57] <usama> Some_Person: 2.6.15-23
[05:57] <Prozac> i heard 2.6.15-23 was on the cd iirc and 2.6.15-26 from updates
[05:57] <usama> Some_Person: sorry :)
[05:57] <Some_Person> thanks
[05:57] <ketetha_> Stormx2, very cool. haha :) its configuring. i'll tell you if i get more erros
[05:57] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You'll only need to do this once too ^_^
[05:57] <Nutubuntu> Hello all - upgraded to Dapper and found that tetex would not install. It still won't. Can someone help me figure this out? dpkg fails to configure tetex-bin because fmutil-sys blows up as it attempts to -translate-file cp227.tcx ... I have no idea how to fix this and I need tetex to work. Can anyone help me with this?
[05:58] <usama> gnomefreak: hi (linuxboyfriend here)
[05:58] <gnomefreak> hi
[05:58] <Prozac> hola, gnomefreak
[05:58] <jrib> FunkyDiscoMan: hmm I've never had to do that sorry, but I guess you could use xmodmap -e directly to set the keycode
[05:58] <ketetha_> Stormx2, cannot find libogg/libvorbis. ok hold on let me see
[05:58] <gnomefreak> hi Prozac
[05:58] <Prozac> hola, gnomefreak
[05:58] <ketetha_> Stormx2, is there a way to get a list of packages on the terminal?
[05:58] <Stormx2> ketetha_: If you want a terminal command, try apt-cache search libvorbis
[05:58] <usama> gnomefreak: have you used rhythmbox?
[05:58] <Stormx2> and so forth
[05:58] <gnomefreak> usama: not in a while
[05:59] <Stormx2> Nutubuntu: Sorry, no idea ^_^
[05:59] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: apt-cache search <package>
[05:59] <FunkyDiscoMan> jrib tried getting funny err, what syntax should i use
[05:59] <ketetha_> Stormx2, YAY. the answer to myproblems. haha going back and forth sucks beacuse i have to close the package to download it on terminall
[05:59] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, i explained that to you above
[05:59] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: dpkg -h also has a way
[05:59] <Nutubuntu> Stormx2-  T/y anyhow ... there must be a way around or through this
[06:00] <ketetha_> Stormx2, sudo apt-get install libogg-dev
[06:00] <usama> gnomefreak: hmm, do you remember the shorcut key for playing next and previous songs (also which music player are you using these days?)?
[06:00] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Right. There might also be a libvorbis
[06:00] <ttyfscker> ketetha_,  that will install libogg development files
[06:00] <gnomefreak> usama: i dont use a music player anymore for most part and no i dont recall
[06:00] <Stormx2> ttyfscker: He knows ^_^
[06:00] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, thankss!
[06:00] <Stormx2> She*
[06:00] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, :-( i did exactly wat you said and it seems not to work, it always want to download it in stead of using the cd-rom
[06:00] <ketetha_> Stormx2, sudo apt-get install libvorbis-dev
[06:00] <jrib> FunkyDiscoMan: xmodmap -e "keycode 174 = whatever_you_want"
[06:01] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Ya
[06:01] <FunkyDiscoMan> jrib ta
[06:01] <sid> hi all, I m getting an error message when using mount -a.  I was trying to add a partition to the volume group of LVM, think got something wrong
[06:01] <jrib> FunkyDiscoMan: erm you said 175 though
[06:01] <usama> gnomefreak: dont listen music?? thats strange!!
[06:01] <[knap] > hi, how do i input a space in the name of a file in terminal? for example if the file is named ''some file'' if i put ''some file'' into terminal it doesn't recognize the file
[06:01] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, what exactly are you compiling?
[06:01] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: make sure only the cdrom repo is missing the # infront of it change the breezy to dapper and run it it should work
[06:01] <gnomefreak> usama: i have a radio next to me
[06:01] <erdmann> Hi!  I just did a fresh install of Dapper, and all the fonts in Firefox render without any smoothing.  Font smoothing works everywhere else.  Ideas?
[06:01] <LjL> [knap] : either use quotes around the filename, or "\ " for the space
[06:02] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, this media player audacious
[06:02] <LjL> [knap] : (without the quotes)
[06:02] <[knap] > ok thanks LjL
[06:02] <jrib> FunnyLookinHat: oh man xmodmap also says there is a 'remove', that may be better
[06:02] <stopher> OOOKAY i ran the patch on /etc/httpd/src/modules/files/fpexec.h  and it said hunk #1 failed at 691.
[06:02] <LjL> [knap] : though most of the times tab-completion relieves you from having to do that anyway
[06:02] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, ok i'll try again
[06:02] <ketetha_> stormx2, i hope this is the last file. why doesnt it just tell me them all at oncee
[06:03] <ttyfscker> whats so special about it that you need to compile an audio player?    there are tons of em already in ubuntu
[06:03] <Redman276> i have a  ? about  gcc
[06:03] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Cause i think a lot of them are reliant on eachother. And you will be getting close no doubt.
[06:03] <LjL> !ask
[06:03] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:03] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, because thats how it is with source.. imagine using a source distro..
[06:03] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, "deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 6.06 _Dapper Drake_ - Release i386 (20060531)] / dapper main restricted" is the only one without an # in front
[06:03] <[knap] > LjL the quotes thing worked, thanks
[06:03] <Redman276> im trying  to configure a  codec  and i  apt-get install GCC  and it  isntalled
[06:04] <Nutubuntu> How do I check whether there is an existing bug report for this tetex problem? tetex is part of the Dapper installation; I assume it works for most people ... but it isn't working here.
[06:04] <Redman276> but when i run ./configure   i get  an output line  of
[06:04] <ketetha_> Stormx2, hopefully!
[06:04] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, whats distro?
[06:04] <Stormx2> Redman276: You probably want sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:04] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, usually the projects home pages gives you a list of dependencies.. you can install them first and then do ./configure && make all
[06:04] <LjL> !tell Redman276 about build-essential
[06:04] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: this is with the cd in your hand or in the cd drive atm?
[06:04] <gnomefreak> Foobal: your mute is up
[06:04] <Stormx2> ketetha_: distro is distribution, like ubuntu or slackware
[06:04] <Redman276> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[06:04] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, distro is short for distribution... the flavor of linux.. eg. slackware, ubuntu, debian, redhat, etc
[06:04] <gnomefreak> Redman276: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:05] <LjL> Redman276: follow the advice from the bot and from Stormx2
[06:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i seee.
[06:05] <Redman276> ahhh ok   ty
[06:05] <ketetha_> ttyfscker, ooh. cool
[06:05] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, lol, in the drive ofcourse
[06:05] <Stormx2> ubuntu is the best one tho ^_^
[06:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it finished!!!!
[06:05] <gnomefreak> put it in your hand
[06:05] <Nutubuntu> -blink-
[06:05] <_stev_> how can I check from my terminal if all my hardware is running properly? When do I know if my ram for example doesn't work anymore?
[06:05] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Brilliant. Pastebin the last bit (You can copy with Ctrl+Shift+C)
[06:05] <ttyfscker> ubuntu would be a lot better if it had a different name..
[06:06] <k31th> anyone know of a bit of software that will use a modem to pick up a fax and save it to a file ?
[06:06] <ketetha_> Stormx2, okkk
[06:06] <Stormx2> Nah ubuntu is a good name
[06:06] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: once the cd is out of the drive change your sources.list and run apt-get update than dist-upgrade and it should ask you for cd
[06:06] <ttyfscker> yea if u know the definition
[06:06] <Stormx2> I used to pronounce it "You-Buntu-Ooh"
[06:06] <LjL> _stev_: err, it entirely depends on the hardware, and it's even always possible. for RAM there is memtest86+, which you can run from your Grub menu (press Esc before Linux boots)
[06:06] <Stormx2> lol
[06:06] <gnomefreak> Hobbsee: good luck next week ;)
[06:06] <Hobbsee> gnomefreak: thanks :)
[06:06] <Stormx2> *Bunt
[06:06] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, ok, and again :D
[06:06] <ketetha_> Stormx2, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17837
[06:06] <ttyfscker> i dont know the cd cover and their lil logo/theme   is pretty gay too
[06:07] <[Ex0r] > Dangerdoom in the hizzie! woodywoodywoody woop!
[06:07] <ttyfscker> it kinda underestimates its real power.. makes it look all sissified
[06:07] <LjL> !language
[06:07] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:07] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[06:07] <Sh4d0x> "
[06:07] <_stev_> LjL: are there tools from the terminal to test my hardware ?
[06:07] <LjL> Sh4d0x: is another process using it? close it.
[06:07] <Blv3Watyr> ttyfscker try suggesting improvements before incendiary comments
[06:07] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: close synaptic or your sources.list file or apt
[06:07] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Hold on a second.
[06:07] <[Ex0r] > Stormx2, so than how is it pronounced ?
[06:07] <LjL> _stev_: yes. but as i said, it depends on the hardware. for RAM, you better not do it from the terminal, but rather by using memtest.
[06:07] <Blv3Watyr> besides your own name isnt that flattering
[06:07] <tailsfan> I'm trying to install fluxbox, but it's giving me a libc6 error, anyone know how to update libc6
[06:08] <gnomefreak> tailsfan: are you on dapper?
[06:08] <ketetha_> Stormx2, ok :)
[06:08] <sid>  hi all trying to get some help, I m getting an error message when using mount -a.  I was trying to add a partition to the volume group of LVM,  got something wrong
[06:08] <bteoman> hello
[06:08] <bteoman> i need help
[06:08] <LjL> !helpme
[06:08] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:08] <tailsfan> Yes
[06:08] <bteoman> i cant access my windows hdd
[06:09] <bteoman> can u help me to solve this?
[06:09] <ttyfscker> bteoman, do you have it mounted?
[06:09] <LjL> tailsfan: you should probably pastebin the exact error
[06:09] <ttyfscker> do a df
[06:09] <LjL> !tell bteoman about mountwindows
[06:09] <ubotu> I know nothing about mountwindows - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:09] <tailsfan> K
[06:09] <gnomefreak> tailsfan: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (make sure your sources.list file is only pointing to dapper)
[06:09] <bteoman> not sure
[06:09] <Meatwad> is there a way to add a beagle search add-on to the panel?  the only search box i'm able to add is the old brute-force search
[06:09] <bteoman> how can i ddo it?
[06:09] <LjL> !tell bteoman about ntfs
[06:09] <cdubya> bteoman, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[06:09] <LjL> (sorry the previous factoid was wrong)
[06:09] <ttyfscker> bteoman,   see what the command df outputs   and/or try fdisk -l
[06:09] <[Ex0r] > anyone know when the new ubuntu release is set to be out ?
[06:10] <bteoman> thank u!!!
[06:10] <sktx> its out
[06:10] <bteoman> i love u all :D
[06:10] <ttyfscker> no prob
[06:10] <sktx> [Ex0r] : or do you mean edgy?
[06:10] <narfmaster> [Ex0r] , in October
[06:10] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, nope, won't work
[06:10] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Do this! sudo apt-get install libflac-dev alsa-base alsa-utils gstreamer0.10-alsa libesd-alsa0 libmusicbrainz4-dev
[06:10] <[Ex0r] > Yeah, edgy
[06:10] <gnomefreak> Sh4d0x: im not sure than
[06:10] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Then do another ./configure. Once that is done, run make, then sudo make install
[06:10] <_stev_> LjL: thanks for the tip for memory testing; but if I wanna check if my hdd or network card , what can I do? Do I get a message somewhere?
[06:11] <LjL> Stormx2, ketetha_ : or checkinstall
[06:11] <sid> that would be the error message and the fstab: http://pastebin.ca/86141
[06:11] <ttyfscker> ketetha_, why does she need to configure twice?
[06:11] <erdmann> Anyone?  My Firefox fonts aren't antialiased in a fresh install of dapper (read: ugly).  Is there a setting for this?
[06:11] <ketetha_> Stormx2, okkk im doinggg
[06:11] <oskude> !checkinstall
[06:11] <[Ex0r] > grr
[06:11] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[06:11] <Blv3Watyr> fresh install of firefox?
[06:11] <Sh4d0x> gnomefreak, if you understand a bit dutch, i'm willing to copy my output
[06:11] <[Ex0r] > I signed up for shipit, and haven't gotten an email yet
[06:11] <LjL> ttyfscker: because if a configure fails, you need to run it again after you've fixed the dependencies.
[06:12] <Blv3Watyr> one of your libs for ff was newer than one in the dapper version
[06:12] <errpast-wc> I've got a mouse that darts all over the place on one piece of hardware with 6.06
[06:12] <ttyfscker> yes i know that
[06:12] <Stormx2> LjL, true
[06:12] <errpast-wc> Using the 6.06 CD to install
[06:12] <Blv3Watyr> try installing ff with dapper
[06:12] <ttyfscker> i thought he meant after ./configure completed to run it again
[06:12] <ketetha_> Stormx2, what do you mean by run make?
[06:12] <errpast-wc> I think I need to tweak xorg.conf
[06:13] <LjL> ketetha_: to type "make"
[06:13] <ketetha_> ljl, oh okkk
[06:13] <brian> I'm using Gentoo. But should I switch to Ubuntu?
[06:13] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Once the ./configure is done, simply type "make" and hit enter.
[06:13] <LjL> Brian: i don't know, should you?
[06:13] <Blv3Watyr> what is gentoo based on?
[06:13] <frogzoo> brian: depends really
[06:13] <LjL> Blv3Watyr: on gentoo
[06:13] <javiolo> hi
[06:13] <ttyfscker> and when that gets done type make install ;)
[06:13] <ketetha_> Stormx2, okkk.
[06:13] <brian> My system is slow and Gentoo needs to compile eveverything.
[06:13] <Stormx2> brian, what do you expect a channel full of ubuntu users to say? :P
[06:13] <Blv3Watyr> oh
[06:13] <Blv3Watyr> k
[06:13] <brian> I'm tired of waiting.
[06:13] <brian> Is Ubuntu better in that sense?
[06:13] <Stormx2> So use ubuntu
[06:13] <tailsfan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17838
[06:13] <javiolo> how do I start gnome ? Im playing with fluxbox and now startx only opens fluxbox
[06:14] <erdmann> Blv3Watyr:  Installed dapper clean from liveCD last night, then updated everything.  The update upgraded firefox.  After reboot (due to new kernel), Firefox fonts render as bitmap with no antialiasing.
[06:14] <LjL> Brian: yes, since we don't usually compile things
[06:14] <tailsfan> that is my error
[06:14] <ttyfscker> brian,  yes
[06:14] <Redman276> ok  now im lost
[06:14] <harisund> javiolo you wouldn't want to start the X using "startx" .. rather you would be better off using a display managed like gdm or kdm.
[06:14] <Blv3Watyr> hmm...
[06:14] <[Ex0r] > guys, gut a question
[06:14] <frogzoo> brian: ubuntu is a binary release - so in that sense, it's better - but you need a fastish net feed for most benefit
[06:14] <Redman276> what   player  plays  xvid.avi  encoded  movies ?
[06:14] <ttyfscker> brian, gentoo serves no purpose but geek pleasure, and the fact that you say you got it up and going..
[06:14] <[Ex0r] > when you are getting shipit cd's, what is the 5 pc edition? 5 seperate cd's that are all the same ?
[06:14] <brian> I have a fast internet connection.
[06:14] <Stormx2> erdmann: Yes a lot of people have said that...
[06:14] <LjL> tailsfan: i think you're using a third-party package. why dont you just type "sudo aptitude install fluxbox" instead?
[06:14] <Blv3Watyr> maybe your ff settings... new ff settings i mean
[06:15] <frogzoo> ttyfscker: gentoo bugs get fixed quicker but
[06:15] <dracflamloc> hi all, anyone know a way to get wget to show only its progress bar and not the other mess it prints
[06:15] <brian> I like Gentoo on my server...
[06:15] <brian> But I don't think it's the right choice on my desktop
[06:15] <brian> Because my computer is old and slow
[06:15] <bteoman> may i ask another question?
[06:15] <fdsd> hey guys, I have a severly damaged harddrive, It is 300gb and I know dd bs=512 if=/dev/hda of=/my/other/harddrive/blah.image conv=noerror,sync would get everything and skip over the bad sectors, but is there a way with dd to just grab the information on the drive and not the whole file system?  since the filesystem is 300gb?  I only have 20gb used on the drive and my backup drive is only 200gb, thanks!
[06:15] <frogzoo> !ask
[06:15] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:15] <Stormx2> brian: Well my computer is old and slow and runs ubuntu good :)
[06:15] <erdmann> I'll dig around in the FF settings, but I don't remember one for which font rendering engine to use (or its ilk).
[06:15] <ketetha_> Stormx2, ok im on the make step
[06:16] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Good.
[06:16] <FunkyDiscoMan> does anybody know what happened to albumart downloader, the project disappeared off freshmeat
[06:16] <sid> is it possible to get some help with my mounting problem?
[06:16] <harisund> What does "make dep vmlinux modules" do during a kernel compilation process?
[06:16] <Stormx2> sid: Sure, ask away.
[06:16] <bteoman> linux looder (boot) waits too much
[06:16] <ketetha_> that is disgusting.
[06:16] <tailsfan> Ubuntu runs fine with mine
[06:16] <bteoman> how can i make it wait less?
[06:16] <brian> I guess I'll copy important stuff over to my other hard drive and install Ubuntu then.
[06:16] <tailsfan> it's just the sound has probs and I gave up on trying to fix it
[06:16] <Stormx2> ketetha_: What is?
[06:16] <sid> I did before, I receive an error message when using mount  -a
[06:16] <frogzoo> fdsd: if you want to go through the file system, you'll have to mount the drive
[06:17] <oskude> bteoman, in /boot/grub/menu.lst is a variabled named "timeout" change that (its in seconds)
[06:17] <fdsd> frogzoo, which is fine..
[06:17] <ketetha_> i messeged you Stormx2
[06:17] <bteoman> thank u
[06:18] <Stormx2> ketetha_: You did? I didn't receive any messages.
[06:18] <a2xm> hi all, I just re-install 6.06 onto 5.10 and now my DVDROM not automount anymore. it says mount: mount point /media/cdrom1 does not exist.
[06:18] <FunkyDiscoMan> what program do people use to download album art?
[06:18] <sid> Stormx2:  I receive an error message when using mount  -a
[06:18] <ketetha_> Stormx2, suree?
[06:18] <errpast-wc> My ps2 mouse is on a KVM.  When I run the Ubuntu 6.06 CD, mouse jumps all over the place
[06:18] <Stormx2> ketetha_: positive!
[06:18] <errpast-wc> Is there a generic xorg.conf setting that might help me?
[06:18] <frogzoo> fdsd: so what's the problem? the thing about dd is it captures everything, & leet hackers can resurrect lost files, but for us lesser mortals, just cp is about as good as dd
[06:19] <jbroome> errpast-wc: i have that problem too, when i switch from win to *nix computers on my kvm
[06:19] <fdsd> frogzoo, cp fails on I/O errors and doesnt skip past them
[06:19] <errpast-wc> jbroome: thanks jbroome
[06:19] <jbroome> errpast-wc: usually i have to unplug my mouse and replug
[06:19] <bleaked> does the helix framework not exist in the repos?
[06:19] <erdmann> Blv3Watyr:  deleting the ~/.mozilla directory and restarting FF mostly fixed things.  Now everything is hyper-smoothed!
[06:19] <jbroome> errpast-wc: i'm using a usb mouse > ps/2 converter on my kvm
[06:19] <ketetha_> Stormx2, sudo make install? is that next
[06:19] <errpast-wc> jbroome: same with me
[06:19] <Stormx2> ketetha_: yes.
[06:20] <Blv3Watyr> heheh
[06:20] <Blv3Watyr> kewl
[06:20] <frogzoo> fdsd: mebbe tar --ignore-failed-read   ???
[06:20] <errpast-wc> jbroome: I will try unplug and plug again, then I think I'll just hunt down another mouse, or go around kvm
[06:20] <errpast-wc> thanks
[06:20] <jbroome> np
[06:21] <erdmann> Blv3Watyr:  i.e., also not so usable.  I just want FF to render according to my normal font settings.
[06:21] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it keeps saying error
[06:21] <sid> Stormx2: error message and fstab: http://pastebin.ca/86141
[06:21] <tailsfan> and after I install fluxbox, how do I switch to it
[06:21] <fdsd> frogzoo, maybe
[06:21] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Whats the error message?
[06:21] <bteoman> thank u guys
[06:21] <jrib> tailsfan: when you login there is an 'options' button, just change the session to use fluxbox
[06:21] <Stormx2> sid: I'll take a look

[06:25] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Try sudo make instlal first.
[06:25] <Stormx2> *install
[06:26] <josh__> anyone?!
[06:26] <jbroome> init 6 is reboot, isn't it
[06:26] <Stormx2> josh__: Not sure...
[06:26] <jbroome> or am i thinking RH based systems
[06:26] <josh__> that is what it used to be but i cant do it now
[06:26] <ketetha_> Stormx2, same build error
[06:27] <oskude> ketetha_, i would recommend to use checkinstall instead of make install (if you dont know what youre doing)
[06:27] <lnxGnome> thankx Stormx2 and pozdiy :)
[06:27] <Stormx2> ketetha_: OK then, ./configure, make, and make install again
[06:27] <brandon_> anybody having any trouble signing in to msn?
[06:27] <oskude> ketetha_, and you have to use ./configure before make (and be sure configure doesnt give any errors)
[06:27] <Stormx2> brandon_: Check the service status
[06:27] <brandon_> says it's fine
[06:27] <MystaMax> frogzoo, so most executables are in usr/bin ?
[06:28] <Crescendo> XChat hasn't saved logs, I don't think.
[06:28] <brian> Ubuntu uses deb packages right?
[06:28] <ketetha_> Stormx2, did you read what oskude is telling me? should i do that or what you just said
[06:28] <ketetha_> oskude, thankks
[06:28] <frogzoo> MystaMax: the vast majority
[06:28] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Yeah
[06:28] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Well you've configured ^_^
[06:28] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its odd that configure didn't pick up you didn't have mpg123 tho
[06:28] <oskude> !tell ketetha_ about checkinstall
[06:28] <Stormx2> ketetha_: have to dash now
[06:29] <ketetha_> Stormx2,  byeee!
[06:29] <oskude> ketetha_, with check install you get a deb file that you can easily uninstall when you wish
[06:29] <ketetha_> oskude, ooh okk
[06:29] <ketetha_> oskude, what do i type
[06:29] <bteoman> i cant install skype on my ubuntu
[06:29] <bteoman> can u help me
[06:29] <bteoman> my processor is amd 64
[06:29] <javiolo> !skype
[06:30] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skype To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[06:30] <oskude> ketetha_, just "sudo checkinstall" instead of "sudo make install"
[06:30] <Redman276> !gizmo
[06:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about gizmo - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:30] <oskude> ketetha_, but
[06:30] <oskude> ketetha_, i would do just "make" before trying to install
[06:30] <ketetha_> oskude, doesnt work
[06:30] <bteoman> thank u guts
[06:30] <ketetha_> oskude, okk
[06:30] <bteoman> *guys
[06:30] <ketetha_> oskude, there are still erro
[06:30] <oskude> ketetha_, yeah, check install ist not installed by deafult "sudo apt-get install checkinstall"
[06:30] <ketetha_> oskude, i'll try later. i gotta goooo
[06:31] <narfmaster> ketetha_, same error?
[06:31] <oskude> ketetha_, roger
[06:31] <ketetha_> narfmaster, yeppp
[06:31] <narfmaster> ketetha_, sudo apt-get install libtagc0-dev
[06:31] <narfmaster> then make again
[06:31] <oskude> ketetha_, next time run ./configure and pastebin the error (the whole thing)
[06:31] <ketetha_> narfmaster, ok
[06:31] <ketetha_> oskude, okkk :)
[06:31] <cntb> my customer want autologon for regular user
[06:32] <pozdiy> what had happened to hotplug in dapper?
[06:32] <ketetha_> narfmaster, its done
[06:32] <narfmaster> ketetha_, cool
[06:32] <ketetha_> narfmaster, now what?
[06:32] <MystaMax> frogzoo, thanks great help!
[06:32] <narfmaster> ketetha_, now checkinstall or make install
[06:32] <ketetha_> narfmaster, ok make first?
[06:33] <narfmaster> ketetha_, yeah
[06:34] <oskude> ketetha_, with just "make" you can run it with normal user, to make sure all goes ok. "make install/checkinstall" needs root rights and would try to install it right away. in praxis it doesnt really matter if you use just make before it or not, im just causios at compiling...
[06:34] <Mikelo> anybody know where i can get decent free web hosting?
[06:34] <ketetha_> oskude, i see. okk well im about to do make install
[06:35] <Mikelo> i want to create a website about linux & opensource
[06:35] <oskude> ketetha_, and most programs you can run directly from the compiled dir (after make) so you dont really need to install it system wide (make install / checkinstall)
[06:35] <oskude> Mikelo, cool
[06:35] <wangzhengsan> Hello everyone!How to turn to text mode in Ubuntu?
[06:35] <ketetha_> i'll be back later guys
[06:35] <ketetha_> bye
[06:36] <oskude> Mikelo, but dunno, never used free webspaces...
[06:36] <sid> Stormx2: you were right, its formated wrong. Do you know how to format it for LVM?
[06:36] <oskude> wangzhengsan, you mean without ever loading the X, or ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[06:36] <Mikelo> oskude, most of it sucks
[06:37] <wangzhengsan> YES!oskude
[06:37] <Mikelo> oskude, its hard 2 find
[06:37] <Blv3Watyr> afk
[06:37] <oskude> Mikelo, well, in germany you get 50mb space for 25cent
[06:37] <frogzoo> MystaMax: oh, cool, glad that helped
[06:37] <oskude> Mikelo, per month
[06:38] <frogzoo> wangzhengsan: ctrl + alt + F1-F6
[06:38] <Mikelo> oskude, whats the url^
[06:38] <Mikelo> ?
[06:39] <cntb> howto check free space in GUI ?  not terminal - df .
[06:40] <Mikelo> oskude, hey!
[06:40] <oskude> Mikelo, hmm, they have lowered the space, lol http://www.evanzo.de/content.php?co=0101003502&inPID=100&PHPSESSID=17c29ea813da7eca1677969f777c044b
[06:40] <a2xm> hi all, I just install 6.06 onto 5.10 and now my DVDROM not automount anymore. it says mount: mount point /media/cdrom1 does not exist.
[06:40] <Mikelo> oskude, bastards
[06:40] <polpak> cntb, Places->Computer click on Filesystem. It should say in the status bar
[06:41] <oskude> Mikelo, but this looks cool http://www.evanzo.de/content.php?co=0101003502&inPID=150&PHPSESSID=17c29ea813da7eca1677969f777c044b
[06:41] <ubuntufreak> What Company Ships ubuntu CD's in the U.S
[06:41] <polpak> ubuntufreak, I think shipit will ship to us
[06:41] <afflux> re...
[06:41] <ardchoille> SipIt does ship to the US
[06:41] <Mikelo> oskude, tnx
[06:41] <ardchoille> *ShipIt
[06:42] <[knap] > in europe is TOP lite
[06:42] <[knap] > topa.nl
[06:42] <ubuntufreak> What is the name of the company that actually drops it off at your front door
[06:42] <dr_willis> Linux-o-gram!
[06:42] <ubuntufreak> UPS, FedEx, DHL
[06:42] <ubuntu_newbe> ive a problem: i can not install xmms because the system doesnt find the pacet. what is the mistake?
[06:42] <ubuntufreak> USPS
[06:43] <LjL> ubuntu_newbe: do you have universe enabled?
[06:43] <polpak> !info xmms
[06:43] <ubotu> xmms: Versatile X audio player. In repository main, is optional. Version 1.2.10+cvs20050809-4ubuntu5 (dapper), package size 1029 kB, installed size 7256 kB
[06:43] <dr_willis> !info xmms
[06:43] <dr_willis> :)
[06:43] <LjL> oh right nevermind that
[06:43] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: hold on.. looking at my package now
[06:43] <joeljkp> how do i see the bugs i'm subscribed to?
[06:43] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: are you in U.S
[06:43] <oskude> tell ubuntu_newbe about repos
[06:43] <LjL> ubuntu_newbe: scratch that. edit your sources.list ("sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"), and make sure that you don't have all of it commented out
[06:43] <joeljkp> on launchpad, how do i see the bugs i'm subscribed to?
[06:44] <oskude> !tell ubuntu_newbe about repos
[06:44] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: yes
[06:44] <LjL> ubuntu_newbe: if all of the lines starting with "deb" or "deb-src" (except for the CD-ROM one) are commented out, you need to uncomment some/all of them
[06:44] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: which company is it?
[06:44] <LjL> ubuntu_newbe: we can keep speaking on the channel, so that our exchange can be useful to others as well
[06:45] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: Believe it or not, the package doesn't specifiy
[06:45] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: Is it United states Postal Service, United Postal Service, FedEx, or DHL
[06:45] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: It has to say
[06:45] <munckfish> How do I stop Nautilus' search feature using Beagle instead of the standard file search capabilities?
[06:45] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: It's either UPS or FedEx, it wasn't the USPS or DHL.
[06:46] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: Great, those are the best!  How long did it take for your package to come
[06:46] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: My request was granted on June 13th
[06:47] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: It is July 12th today
[06:47] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: Brezzy too 28 days, Dapper (the set I got a few days ago) took about 5 weeks.
[06:48] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: What state do you live in?
[06:48] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: Seattle, Washington
[06:48] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: I'm in Michigan
[06:49] <MystaMax> does everything i mount in my media folder get put on the desktop? how does that work?
[06:49] <nick01> I asked for ubuntu 5.10 - I haven't received it until now
[06:49] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: Thank You very much for your help
[06:49] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: I have a feeling that this package came from France, since the postage states "France". If that is the case, your should arrive any day now
[06:49] <nick01> I asked for it a year ago
[06:49] <ardchoille> ubuntufreak: You're welcome :)
[06:50] <ubuntufreak> ardchoille: I hope it arrives soon
[06:50] <ardchoille> nick01: You live on the moon?
[06:50] <nick01> lol
[06:50] <nick01> Romania
[06:50] <ubuntufreak> nick01: pretty close
[06:50] <nick01> lol
[06:50] <ubuntufreak> ttyl
[06:51] <MystaMax> i got mine in the mail last week, from france
[06:51] <ardchoille> MystaMax: How long did it take?
[06:51] <MystaMax> ardchoille, not that long 2-3 weeks
[06:54] <Some_Person> Ubuntu rocks! Except I hate your new progress bar in the theme
[06:55] <joeljkp> on launchpad, how do i see the bugs i'm subscribed to?
[06:55] <ardchoille> Some_Person: that can be easily changed :)
[06:55] <jrib> joeljkp: go to your profile, then bugs, then subscribe I think
[06:55] <Some_Person> also i hate that my modem driver is capped at 14.4 kbps unless I pay $20
[06:56] <jbroome> eww, that's lame
[06:56] <ardchoille> indeed
[06:56] <joeljkp> jrib: ah, i see, thanks
[06:56] <Some_Person> It's a Conexant HSF modem.
[06:56] <POVaddct> Some_Person: that's the "advantage" of hardware running with closed source only drivers
[06:56] <SurfnKid> Some_Person, change ISPs
[06:57] <fdsd> anyone switch from gentoo to ubuntu?
[06:57] <Some_Person> It's the modem driver, not the ISP.
[06:57] <SurfnKid> fdsd me
[06:57] <fdsd> SurfnKid, why?
[06:57] <Frankenstein> hi, im having a few problems with ubuntu! i like it a lot BUT i cant gain root access, and i followed this link to learn how to: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-31053.html and also I cant get my wireless usb to work, i typed lspci but it didnt show that device
[06:57] <POVaddct> Some_Person: winmodem in a notebook i guess?
[06:57] <SurfnKid>  fdsk and it wasnt a switch, didnt start gentoo just breezeed it and jumped to ubuntu
[06:57] <ardchoille> Frankenstein: Use sudo for admin tasks
[06:57] <SurfnKid> fdsd, it was too hard to install, didnt know the commands
[06:57] <ardchoille> !sudo
[06:57] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:57] <kakado> fdsd, yes but I've used ubuntu for a while
[06:58] <SurfnKid> fdsd, but ubuntu helped aleviate that
[06:58] <Frankenstein> ubotu i dont want to use that sudo stuff... i want ROOT access
[06:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about i dont want to use that sudo stuff... i want ROOT access - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:58] <fdsd> SurfnKid, oh, I am very experienced with gentoo, I dont think I could go to a system that is dumbed down
[06:58] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: lspci is not for usb devices. try lsusb instead.
[06:58] <ardchoille> Frankenstein: sudo *is* root access
[06:59] <SurfnKid> fdsd, instead ubuntu isnt dumbed down, its improved
[06:59] <Frankenstein> POVaddct i will try that thanks!
[06:59] <Some_Person> POVaddict: It's a PCI Winmodem in a desktop.
[06:59] <POVaddct> Some_Person: still a winmodem. crappy hardware...
[06:59] <Frankenstein> ok... heres what i want to do... i want to change the password for the user root than i want to be able to login into the user root like normal linux distros
[06:59] <POVaddct> Some_Person: can you use a real modem instead?
[06:59] <kakado> fdsd, I think apt-get is smarter than portage
[06:59] <Some_Person> real?
[07:00] <GlupJa> hi all... just installed ubuntu undew vmware... i need to instal;l tools. Tools nned linux headers. went to synaptic installed linux-headers-2.6.15-23 when asked for a path i give /usr/src/linux-headers-2.5.15-23/ but get an error: that it does not contain "linux" subdirecoty any pointers.. googleing for this took me nowhere...
[07:00] <Some_Person> Wait, is the Smart Link Winmodem driver free?
[07:00] <fdsd> kakado, not if you have to make a change to the ./configure script on the fly
[07:00] <POVaddct> Some_Person: external modem connected via serial port
[07:00] <Jeruvy> Frankenstein: try su - root, then password (probably the same as the user)
[07:00] <Frankenstein> ok ill try that thanks
[07:00] <Some_Person> I have a 5 year old 56k smart link modem too
[07:00] <Frankenstein> wait, no i already tried that
[07:00] <kakado> fdsd, maybe true, I havent tried
[07:01] <Jeruvy> Frankenstein: thats what I use on dapper, works for me.
[07:01] <Frankenstein> what i dont understand is that, that link i posted worked for everyone else but not me
[07:01] <fdsd> kakado, editing ebuilds makes portage very flexable
[07:01] <POVaddct> Some_Person: the smart link driver costs no money, but it is not free software (in terms of open source)
[07:01] <Frankenstein> im on this breeze badger thing
[07:01] <Some_Person> Thats fine with me
[07:01] <Some_Person> This is my first day on Dapper!
[07:02] <Frankenstein> when i type su root i will get a passwd field... i tye anything in there and it says sorry
[07:02] <jrib> Frankenstein: sudo -i   <-- will give you a root prompt
[07:02] <Frankenstein> ok, ill go try that
[07:02] <RubberDuck^> hello
[07:03] <RubberDuck^> i need help can someone help me ?
[07:03] <jrib> !ask
[07:03] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:03] <RubberDuck^> !ask
[07:03] <kakado> fdsd, on the other hand I find emerge too slow
[07:03] <damel> hi :)
[07:04] <RubberDuck^> ok i installed ubuntu server 6.06, and when i log in it has my username@linuxserverbox1:~S
[07:04] <Frankenstein> ok, i just ran upstairs and ran lsusb and it did find my wireless card! :) now to access the thing propmpt to configure it requies root access! sudo -i just says "password: " i tye something in there and i get sorry, try again
[07:04] <RubberDuck^> what do i do from there to get to the desktop ?
[07:04] <Frankenstein> install x
[07:05] <jrib> Frankenstein: it's your user password
[07:05] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: sudo asks for your user password (the one you already used to log in)
[07:05] <Frankenstein> sigh, brb
[07:05] <RubberDuck^> uh ?
[07:05] <jrib> RubberDuck^: what Desktop do you want? gnome, kde, xfce, fluxbox...?
[07:05] <RubberDuck^> i want to get into the ubuntu bit
[07:05] <jrib> RubberDuck^: (gnome is default Ubuntu)
[07:05] <RubberDuck^> when i casn use it
[07:05] <RubberDuck^> where*
[07:06] <jrib> RubberDuck^: then you have to install the ubuntu-desktop package, are you familiar with apt?
[07:06] <RubberDuck^> i want to use server
[07:06] <jbroome> i want a pony
[07:06] <POVaddct> i want an ice
[07:06] <RubberDuck^> when i log in yeh on the command propmt style screen
[07:07] <RubberDuck^> what do i do from there
[07:07] <jrib> RubberDuck^: you said desktop before?
[07:07] <RubberDuck^> ?
[07:07] <Meatwad> is there a way to add a beagle search add-on to the panel?  the only search-box i'm able to add is the old brute-force search
[07:07] <jrib> RubberDuck^: so do you want to install a desktop environment on your box?
[07:07] <jrib> Meatwad: deskbar-applet
[07:08] <RubberDuck^> let me start agen heh
[07:08] <RubberDuck^> righ i bot up my pc, and then it has the command prompsort of screen understand so far ?
[07:08] <Meatwad> deskbar-applet?  could you be more specific?
[07:08] <quenpil> hola
[07:08] <Prozac> niihau, quenpil
[07:08] <RubberDuck^> from there it asks for my username then my password
[07:09] <erUSUL> !es > quenpil
[07:09] <jrib> Meatwad: the deskbar-applet let's you use beagle to search, if you want the option for a beagle live search you also need python-beagle
[07:09] <RubberDuck^> when i put them in it has josh@linuxserverbox1:~S
[07:09] <RubberDuck^> josh being my username
[07:09] <quenpil> si
[07:09] <jrib> Meatwad: once you install those packages, just add the applet as usual to your panel
[07:09] <RubberDuck^> its stays on the josh@linuxserverbox1:~S
[07:09] <harisund> RubberDuck^ what is it that you want to use your machine for? If you want to use it for regular day to day purposes, you will need a desktop environment (GUI) .. if you only want a server of sorts, you need not have a GUI. However, you can have a GUI and still run a server
[07:09] <RubberDuck^> and doesent do nothing else
[07:09] <erUSUL> Meatwad: install deskbar-applet and add it to the pannel
[07:09] <POVaddct> RubberDuck^: yes. it's waiting for you to type in commands :)
[07:09] <RubberDuck^> can i run a domain off the desktop one ?
[07:10] <javiolo> any ubuntu user using fluxbox ? Id like to know how to change the gtk2 themes
[07:10] <Meatwad> thanks jrib
[07:10] <erUSUL> quenpil: para ayuda en espaol vete a ubuntu-es (/join #ubuntu-es) estoy yo all tb
[07:10] <jrib> javiolo: I use gtk-theme-switch
[07:10] <harisund> RubberDuck^ you can run a website both with the GUI and without a GUI. If you are not very comfortable using the command line alone, you will have to install a GUI.
[07:10] <POVaddct> RubberDuck^: huh? what would a domain have to do with a desktop?
[07:10] <quenpil> vale
[07:10] <RubberDuck^> i wanted to run a domain lol
[07:10] <quenpil> por q no entiendo nada
[07:11] <erUSUL> quenpil: para ayuda en espaol vete a ubuntu-es (/join #ubuntu-es) estoy yo all tb
[07:11] <POVaddct> RubberDuck^: if you can't work on the command line, you shouldn't run a domain anyway
[07:11] <erUSUL> quenpil: este canal es en ingls
[07:11] <RubberDuck^> lol im a linux n00b
[07:12] <Nutubuntu> After upgrading to Dapper, I have at least one package installed that Synaptic doesn't seem to know about. How do I make Synaptic aware of it? I want to uninstall the package.
[07:12] <albara> ooooooooooolllllllllllllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[07:12] <harisund> Nutubuntu how did you install that package?
[07:12] <erUSUL> !es > albara
[07:13] <Nutubuntu> harisund - not sure any more ... it was months ago
[07:13] <harisund> erUSUL I didn't know you could 'redirect' Ubotu's output to a user like that. Neat :)
[07:13] <POVaddct> RubberDuck^: and being a newbie is the general excuse for not having to read/learn anything?
[07:13] <harisund> Nutubuntu if you installed it using Synaptic, Synaptic will definitely see it.
[07:13] <Nutubuntu> harisund -  Synaptic does not see it. Definitely.
[07:14] <Frankenstein> ok... i can gain root access!!! but how can i make sure my wireless usb card is working? i went to network settings and found my modem and my onboard ethernet port but nothing about the wireless card, lsusb does return that its there!
[07:14] <harisund> Nutubuntu I am assuming you know the package name?
[07:14] <erUSUL> harisund: i discovered it a few days ago. new feature i guess
[07:14] <v3rt> I just deleted my kernel 2.6.15.23, and windows wouldn't boot. I reinstalled it, windows still won't boot into anything but safe mode. The computer restarts at the "loading" screen with the moving blue bar
[07:14] <v3rt> can anyone help?
[07:14] <v3rt> (GRUB)
[07:14] <SurfnKid> Frankenstein, what usb adapter
[07:14] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: first you have to make sure, you card is supported at all. not every usb wireless card is.
[07:15] <Frankenstein> on the screen it reads as Corega K.K
[07:15] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: which vendor/product ID?
[07:15] <harisund> v3rt it would help if you could post the contents of /boot/grub/menu.lst on to pasteboard or something.
[07:15] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  yes, it's glabels ... there are glabels*.* files in /usr/local/share and several other directories
[07:15] <harisund> v3rt however if Windows is booting (albeit only into safe mode) it is not longer grub's problem.
[07:16] <Frankenstein> its a Corega USB11-2 i belive
[07:16] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  can I simply rm those files?
[07:16] <v3rt> well i didn't do anything to windows
[07:16] <harisund> Nutubuntu, did you install it using a .deb file?
[07:16] <v3rt> so how did it get screwed up?
[07:16] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: there are two 4-digit numbers separated by a colon
[07:16] <SurfnKid> does anyone know how to get /proc/i8k running on an 8600?
[07:16] <SurfnKid> apparently needs that file to access the fan status, but i have no clue how to install it
[07:16] <harisund> Nutubuntu if you had installed it from source (from a .tar.gz or .tgz file) then tough look .. you would have to probably manually search ..
[07:17] <Frankenstein> POVaddct where?
[07:17] <Frankenstein> on what?
[07:17] <harisund> Do one thing nutubuntu, try doing a "dpkg --list | grep glabels"
[07:17] <v3rt> title		Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-26-386

[07:17] <jenda> How do I install a font in ubuntu?
[07:17] <Frankenstein> http://pastebin.com
[07:17] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[07:17] <javiolo> any ubuntu user using fluxbox ? Id like to know how to change the gtk2 themes
[07:17] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  what would I search for? glabels*.* ? ... I can do that; would it be safe to simply rm those glabels*.* files ?
[07:17] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: in the lsusb output
[07:17] <v3rt> there's the .lst
[07:17] <v3rt> so is there anything I can do to fix windows?
[07:17] <federa> hi everybody!!!
[07:18] <Frankenstein> POVaddct sorry! ill be right back and write that down
[07:18] <harisund> Nutubuntu you could look into the documentation of glabels on their website or something. Probably it is mentioned what files are added to your system
[07:18] <federa> someone knows how i could use the divx codec 5.05 with xine??
[07:18] <afflux> is there any ed2k/kadamelia client for linux with webcache support?
[07:18] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  Okay ... and once I know that ... I should simply rm those files, is that correct ?
[07:19] <Frankenstein> ok it gave me 8 nubers divided by a colon... 07aa:0018
[07:19] <harisund> Nutubuntu technically you should be safe. But before you rm those files I would use a bit of common sense to make sure they don't look like libraries or something.. which others could be using.
[07:19] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  Yes.
[07:19] <harisund> Why are you uninstalling? For lack of space?
[07:19] <Nutubuntu> harisund-  Common sense is so rare ... but I'll do my best : )
[07:20] <harisund> Nutubuntu :D
[07:20] <MehAdult> Is there a way I can transfer a process from a TTY to a X terminal?
[07:20] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: seems like it works with the at76c503 driver
[07:21] <krogh> My network manager only detects the Wired network.. (running 6.06), iwlist eth1 essid show the complete list of networks.. anyone who knows where to tell networkmanager to find the wireless?
[07:21] <harisund> krogh if i were you I would configure my wireless using the terminal itself :)
[07:21] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: i don't know if this driver is in ubuntu linux (don't have a test system here right now)
[07:21] <Frankenstein> POVaddct awesome! is there a good tutorial on how to set this up so i can configure it?
[07:22] <kms375> hello
[07:22] <Prozac> que tal, kms375
[07:22] <kms375> ???
[07:22] <tschwinge> Hello.
[07:23] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: first try to find out if this driver is already on your system. if not, try to search in synaptic if it is installable from the repository. at a last resort, you can try compiling the driver from source (kinda hard for a newbie)
[07:23] <krogh> harisund: That works flawless.. but NetworkManager is surely nifty :-)
[07:23] <Frankenstein> i can compile programs from source
[07:23] <krogh> When it works.
[07:24] <Frankenstein> ive never used linux as a personal system, only as servers
[07:24] <tschwinge> Do I realize correctly that the Ubuntu cds (6.06 LTS) that Canonical shipped to me do not enable me to install Ubuntu on a LVM device?
[07:24] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: the source is here: http://at76c503a.berlios.de/
[07:24] <SurfnKid> Frankenstein, me too till now
[07:24] <amarokker> hey- does anyone know wwhether they have that multiplayer online doodle game on yahoo?
[07:24] <dsas> amarokker: If you mean "pictionary" then  yes they at least used to .
[07:25] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: you need the sources of your running kernel to compile the driver (they are installable with synaptic or apt-get)
[07:25] <amarokker> dsas: thanks
[07:25] <Foobal> tschwinge: you can, but the default installer wont do it. that would require the alternate disc
[07:25] <amarokker> dsas: ah, found it, its graffiti
[07:25] <Frankenstein> ok, im going to go play around with this!
[07:26] <Foobal> tschwinge: if you initialize the lvm manually before installing it'll succeed and work though
[07:26] <tschwinge> Foobal: Ok.  Thanks.
[07:26] <erUSUL> Frankenstein: not the sources the headers sudo apt-get intall linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:26] <Frankenstein> actually... i might have a problem... of getting that driver on my linux pc...
[07:26] <tschwinge> Foobal: I really liked the text-mode installer better than this graphical thingy...
[07:26] <ardchoille> tschwinge: me too
[07:27] <SurfnKid> how can i check the current daemons running ?
[07:27] <Foobal> tschwinge: the new one is better, because the same cd can be used for demoing Ubuntu to new possible users.. and as nice rescue platform etc.. the default installer just got dumbed down slightly from what was actually even implemented already.. to reduce user errors.
[07:27] <Frankenstein> can linux read windows disketts?
[07:28] <SurfnKid> Frankenstein, floppies? i think so
[07:28] <SurfnKid> NTFS not sure
[07:28] <tschwinge> Foobal: I see.  But a useable installer (usable for non-beginners) could be shipped nevertheless.
[07:28] <Foobal> Frankenstein: yes.
[07:28] <ompaul> Frankenstein, what driver for what piece of hardware
[07:28] <SurfnKid> Foobal, ntfs formatted?
[07:28] <Foobal> yes.
[07:28] <SurfnKid> cool
[07:28] <thiago> Err http://br.archive.ubuntu.com dapper-backports Release.gpg          what is this?
[07:29] <scifi> hey all, does anyone know of a graphical front-end for managing/searching/querying IMDB database files ?
[07:29] <tschwinge> thiago: Temporary corruption, most probably.
[07:29] <dsas> thiago: It's the signature of the repository. So you can verify everything there is legitimate.
[07:30] <thiago> what i do now?
[07:30] <thiago> sorry for my english
[07:31] <tschwinge> Also, selecting ``No localization'' right at the beginning of the graphical installer makes it just hang, it seems.
[07:31] <kakado> scifi, I didn't know one could get those files
[07:31] <javiolo> any ubuntu user using fluxbox ? Id like to know how to change the gtk2 themes
[07:31] <dsas> thiago: sorry, do with what?
[07:32] <blyzer> kll
[07:32] <mano-tatil> hi! I've got problems with ati 3d acceleration. I've got a Compaq R4100 with ati Xpress 200m and ubuntu 64 . I install restricted modules and fglrx driver from repositories but when i modprobe agpgart it says: module agpgart not found. What can i do?
[07:32] <blyzer> klk
[07:32] <blyzer> ubuntu-es
[07:33] <scifi> kakado, yes u can, as i discovered today. there are various linux apps to viem them but they have to be compiled and they are only command-line. i dont know how yo compile, and i prefer graphical.
[07:33] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: i just saw the at76c503 driver already is in ubuntu
[07:34] <Frankenstein> ok, i tailed the /var/log/messages and when i plug in the usb wireless card it says new usb full speed....  but i guess it doesnt have the driver which is my next problem..  i cant get that driver onto my pc
[07:34] <PhUrl> !w32codecs
[07:34] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:34] <kms375> i cant get the nvidia legacy driver to work
[07:34] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: does iwconfig report a wireless interface?
[07:34] <Frankenstein> POVaddct ill tell you in a seccond! two different pc's on two different floors!
[07:34] <kakado> scifi, I see, then its maybe up to a developer
[07:34] <kms375> "glxinfo | grep rendering" returns "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"."
[07:35] <kms375> and i followed the instructions
[07:35] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: oh, okay
[07:35] <erUSUL> Frankenstein: 'lsusb' to figure out the chip of the usb wifi
[07:35] <SurfnKid> !sensors
[07:36] <ubotu> You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[07:36] <userluser> hi
[07:36] <Prozac> hi, userluser
[07:36] <Frankenstein> ok iwconfig reports nothing good, and lsusb which i already did reports its there and yada yada i already went through this with POVaddct
[07:36] <seamus_ie> hey all
[07:36] <POVaddct> erUSUL: it is a "corega usb-11", i googled a bit. contains an atmel chipset.
[07:36] <Frankenstein> i was reading too.. i guess usb wireless devices are pretty generic
[07:36] <userluser> I just installed Kubuntu and I screwed up the root passrowrd and I theres no way now to recover it
[07:37] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: lsusb just reports the connected usb devices. says nothing about supported devices.
[07:37] <userluser> should I go through the installation again or is there a way to recover or change it?
[07:37] <POVaddct> gotta go
[07:37] <Frankenstein> oh ok, so what should my next step be?
[07:37] <InitMass> is the advantage big of doing a clean install with dapper rather than upgrading from breezy to it with apt-get dist-upgrade?
[07:37] <Frankenstein> ok thanks pov
[07:37] <Cheradenine> does anyone know if there's a tutorial anywhere to optimize ati drivers?
[07:37] <ketetha_> ok help
[07:37] <ketetha_> i just did make
[07:37] <kakado> userluser, is you can use sudo as a user, then write sudo passwd root
[07:38] <EricRain> what is ubuntu ?
[07:38] <Prozac> ubuntu is the best one tho ^_^
[07:38] <ketetha_> so is it sudo make installl?
[07:38] <kakado> userluser, if*
[07:38] <ketetha_> its installing so farr!
[07:38] <EricRain> such a quick answer
[07:38] <kms375> how do i shutdown the X server?
[07:38] <kms375> i just want a commandline
[07:38] <Frankenstein> open up a terminal
[07:39] <kms375> no
[07:39] <ketetha_> so ya
[07:39] <shachaf_> kms375: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:39] <ketetha_> who needs help
[07:39] <kms375> shachaf, ok
[07:39] <shachaf_> kms375: Or kdm/xdm, depending on what you're using.
[07:39] <Frankenstein> well im going to go around in circles now! with hopes of making this work
[07:39] <Gregy1727> does anyone know if a Diamond Multimedia SupraMax External USB 56K Modem work under linux?
[07:39] <userluser> kakado: ok for isntance I am trying to install something with the package manager and it asks me for the password, what password do you say it is?
[07:39] <Gregy1727> would work*
[07:40] <kakado> userluser, when you write sudo, then give your own passwd
[07:40] <trappist> userluser: your password
[07:40] <userluser> kakado: I set up a root password during the installation process... is that a problem?
[07:40] <EricRain> X server service (for pidof) is just "X" right
[07:41] <EricRain> ?
[07:41] <pulver> if i get this error "E: Package somepackage has no installation candidate" how do i skip that package causing problems?
[07:41] <Gregy1727> or is there a list of compatible external 56k USB modems...
[07:41] <kakado> userluser, you can make a new, with what i told in a terminal
[07:42] <shachaf_> pulver: What package is it?
[07:42] <kakado> userluser, but maybe you dont need a root password, if you dont use terminals
[07:42] <userluser> kakado: sudo and what else?
[07:42] <shachaf_> pulver: You usually don't want to do that.
[07:42] <ZeeWolf> hello
[07:42] <ketetha_> what do i do after sudo make install is finished
[07:42] <trappist> I don't have a root password and I use the console all day long
[07:42] <userluser> kakado: but when I try to use the package manager it asks me for  a password
[07:42] <pulver> shachaf_, understand but if you know the dependancy/package is pretty useless?
[07:42] <shachaf_> userluser: Use your own password.
[07:42] <trappist> userluser: give it *your* password
[07:42] <shachaf_> userluser: Not root's.
[07:43] <userluser> how do I use sudo in Kubuntu I type sudo and enter an says all the options
[07:43] <ZeeWolf> i have some questions about grub and it's installation on cd
[07:43] <userluser> I did that
[07:43] <userluser> still tells me something is wrong
[07:43] <shachaf_> pulver: Even if it's useless, it's a dependency. Not "recommended" or "suggested".
[07:44] <shachaf_> pulver: Which usually means the dependency is required to run the package you're trying to install.
[07:44] <userluser> kakado: ok I did that but it returns me to the next line
[07:45] <pulver> shachaf_, ok i see, but let's say you want to do it anyway, and perhaps break stuff, is it possible?
[07:45] <shachaf_> pulver: Man apt-get.
[07:45] <shachaf_> pulver: Look up --force.
[07:45] <kakado> userluser, you should first write your own passwd
[07:45] <shachaf_> pulver: But I don't recommend it.
[07:45] <pulver> shachaf_, ok thanks
[07:45] <Gregy1727> does anyone know if a Diamond Multimedia SupraMax External USB 56K Modem will work under linux or is there a way you can refer me to finding out?
[07:45] <ketetha_> anyone
[07:45] <ketetha_> know aht do to
[07:45] <ketetha_> i finished compiling and did make install
[07:45] <ketetha_> now i need the next step
[07:45] <sysrpl> hello
[07:45] <userluser> kakado: I use the user password to log in then the installer doesnt let me to use my own password
[07:45] <izmaelis> hello, everybody
[07:45] <Frankenstein> ok, im fed up! i have this wireless usb card which ubutnu sees Pov guy told me to install this driver and than he said it was already on ubuntu... i have CLUELESS on what to do!
[07:46] <userluser> and I typed sudo passwd root on a terminal and does nothing
[07:46] <shachaf_> Frankenstein: What driver?
[07:46] <ketetha_> frankenstien , ima do somre research
[07:46] <izmaelis> do your ICQ clients work good tooday?
[07:46] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein
[07:46] <sysrpl> how can i stop and restart my network connection?
[07:46] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein: what usb device do you have?
[07:46] <shachaf_> sysrpl: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:46] <seamus_ie> sysrpl: sudo ifconfig wlan0 down up
[07:47] <Frankenstein> its a usb wireless card
[07:47] <userluser> kakado: I think you cant receive my mesasges on the other window
[07:47] <sysrpl> so wither one?
[07:47] <shachaf_> sysrpl: Or "ifdown device; ifup device"
[07:47] <ketetha_> i guess shachaf and seamus_ie can help you
[07:47] <ketetha_> what kind? what are you trying to connect?
[07:47] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein: what kind of card?
[07:47] <philc> I want to have my keyboard's caps lock key be read as the windows key. Is there a standard mapping file I can look at and modify?
[07:47] <userluser> kakado: so am I screwed up?
[07:47] <nigel_> does anyone know how i can set my wireless connection to reconnect upon disconnection ?
[07:47] <sysrpl> either? i have wpa_supplicant installed to help with my wpa-psk wireless
[07:47] <kakado> userluser, depends on you client
[07:47] <ketetha_> Frankenstein, what kind? what are you trying ot connect
[07:47] <shachaf_> philc: You should make a .xmodmap file in ~.
[07:47] <kakado> userluser, sounds like it
[07:47] <Frankenstein> a wireless usb card
[07:47] <nigel_> because it seems as though every time the wireless dips , it disconnects ..
[07:47] <userluser> because no combination of passwords work here
[07:47] <Frankenstein> ....
[07:47] <seamus_ie> philc: google for ~/.Xresources
[07:47] <nigel_> and doesnt come back on
[07:47] <tschwinge> Foobal: I prepared the LVs, but how do I choose them in the installer?  It shows me only real disk partitions.
[07:47] <ketetha_> Frankenstein, give us more
[07:47] <shachaf_> philc: That file should say...
[07:47] <nigel_> yes
[07:47] <Frankenstein> thats all there is
[07:48] <kakado> userluser, you dont have other user accounts
[07:48] <shachaf_> philc: Hmm, I don't have mine handy.
[07:48] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein: make, model number, thet are all different
[07:48] <userluser> kakado: hold on
[07:48] <ketetha_> Frankenstein, so there is nothing particular you want to connect? ya like what kind
[07:48] <kakado> userluser, with wheel group
[07:48] <shachaf_> philc: But you want "remove lock = Caps_Lock", or something like that.
[07:48] <ketetha_> Frankenstein, look around for something
[07:48] <philc> shachaf: thanks for thepointer!
[07:48] <shachaf_> philc: And then map lock to Mod4.
[07:48] <slowz3r> hey everyone
[07:48] <kakado> userluser, its called admin on ubuntu
[07:48] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein: what is the output of lsusb?
[07:48] <Foobal> tschwinge: umm, good question. I'd actually just copy the filesystem to your lvm'd filesystem and fix the grub. that's pretty much all the installer does anyways besides fixing your hostname and couple other very simple settings
[07:49] <EricRain> global question , is there any good mailserver and FTP server with GUI (like Kerio) that works with ubuntu !?
[07:49] <ketetha_> is there a wiki or document on usb?
[07:49] <Frankenstein> i already posted the output of that! its a wi-fi card to connect to the lan, and what not
[07:49] <ZeeWolf> any1 have grub on cd ? will i have to update menu.lst on cd everytime i update my kernel ??
[07:49] <seamus_ie> ketetha_: what particulr part of usb?
[07:49] <Frankenstein> its from corega
[07:49] <seamus_ie> Frankenstein: can you post the relevant part again, I missed it
[07:49] <ketetha_> seamus_ie,  i dont have one! haha i was trying to help Frankenstein
[07:49] <ketetha_> seamus_ie, i do have a questin for you though
[07:50] <seamus_ie> shoot

[07:53] <abo> I need help with Grub, I was trying to change the size of my / partition and I can't boot my system anymore, anyone can help please?
[07:53] <f_favila> He didn't tell you it was already installed.. He said to check if it was if not then to install it.
[07:54] <cached> if i were to reinstall windows on a seperate partition, would it mess up the MBR and, if so, how can I restore it to loading grub so I can dual boot
[07:54] <ketetha_> seamus_ie, im so confusedd

[07:59] <cached> I asked this earlier but nobody responded: "if i were to reinstall windows on a seperate partition, would it mess up the MBR and, if so, how can I restore it to loading grub so I can dual boot?"
[08:00] <Jeruvy> cached: yes.  Try lilo
[08:00] <erUSUL> !grub > cached

[08:00] <Dokkeri-> Jeruvy: Can't see how that'd be much better if your MBR gets overwritten.
[08:01] <Dokkeri-> Well that should help... :P
[08:01] <ketetha_> whats grubs purpose again?

[08:02] <Nutubuntu> Hi - I still have a package that seems to be installed, that Synaptic doesn't know about. I want to remove it completely. How do I start?
[08:02] <slowz3r> What are some good accesories or system tools i should get
[08:02] <Gregy1727> FunnyLookinHat: there was no usb compatible hardware list on there. I can't do scanmodem with it because i don't yet have the modem. I wanted to make sure it worked before i bought it.
[08:03] <FunnyLookinHat> Gregy1727, You could also try going to google and searching "Modem Name Here" linux support
[08:03] <Nutubuntu> There must be some command that inventories everything ... surely?
[08:04] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, inventories what?
[08:04] <scifi> i have a large .list file, can i open it in a database like sql ?
[08:04] <Nutubuntu> cdubya-  all the installed packages ... I somehow have installed a package that Synaptic doesn't know about, and I can't seem to get rid of it
[08:04] <daryl_> When I open sound juicer and press Extract, it closes the window.  I am not sure why.  Please help!  : ) thanks
[08:04] <cdubya> ah
[08:05] <Some_Person> I hate those vertical lines in the Dapper Progress Bar
[08:05] <Some_Person> How can I get rid of them?
[08:05] <erUSUL> Some_Person: change them System>Prefer>theme
[08:05] <Nutubuntu> There must be a way to do it.
[08:05] <bleaked> why is the helix-engine not in the repos?
[08:06] <sorcre> Could someone give me a hand with Xen? I am following a tutorial online but seem to be having troubles.
[08:06] <nigel_> anyone here know's how to set your wireless connection to automatically reconnect after disconnection ?
[08:07] <daryl_> Does anyone know why the Sound Juicer program would close when I press Extract?
[08:07] <slowz3r> where can i download some new themes
[08:07] <Ensiferum> any particular reasons why dapper wont let me mount existing partitions when installing?
[08:07] <sorcre> Does anyone know why "/sbin/depmod -a 2.6.15-26-k7-xen" won't work? I'm trying to install Xen
[08:07] <Nutubuntu> So ... how do I manually uninstall a package that Synaptic doesn't see, or somehow get Synaptic or apt-get to see it?
[08:07] <Dokkeri-> slowz3r: try http://art.gnome.org/ or something.
[08:08] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, sudo apt-get remove package
[08:08] <slowz3r> Dokkeri-, is installing pretty straitfoward
[08:08] <Shannon1> hi everyone
[08:08] <erUSUL> Nutubuntu: how do you instaled the package? with dpkg?
[08:08] <kbrosnan> I need to spoof a mac address, how can I do this. I tried messing with /etc/iftab but that broke my eth0
[08:08] <Dokkeri-> slowz3r: Yeah I think so. If I remember correctly you can install new themes from the theme manager.
[08:08] <Nutubuntu> erUSUL-  I am assuming I must have ... but it's been months, and I'm not sure
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> It was glabels 2.0.4 ... it's just possible I built it from source
[08:09] <erUSUL> Nutubuntu: which package are we talking about?
[08:09] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, did you install the package you're talking about using a dpkg command or using synaptic
[08:09] <cdubya> ewww...missed your response...
[08:09] <cdubya> heh
[08:09] <slowz3r> Dokkeri-,  ok ..ill ask u if i have any questions
[08:09] <abo> I have problems with grub, I tried to resize/move the root partition and now grub does not start anymore, can anyone help?
[08:09] <Shannon1> can anyone tell me what was the big change between 2.6.12.9 Breeezy kernel and 2.6.15.25 Dapper kernel that make mouse unusable in many laptop
[08:09] <Nutubuntu> I think it must have been using dpkg, cdubya ... erUSUL, it's glabels
[08:09] <erUSUL> Nutubuntu: if you instaled from source then it shoulb be instaled in /usr/local
[08:10] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, dpkg -r package
[08:10] <cdubya> errr, sudo dpkg -r package
[08:10] <daryl_> Does anyone know why the Sound Juicer program would close when I press Extract?  I tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it.
[08:10] <erUSUL> Nutubuntu: go there an rm the files by hand. tedyus but effective
[08:10] <erUSUL> daryl_: run it from terminal and see if it spit some error msg
[08:11] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, if you built from source, erUSUL is heading you there.....
[08:11] <cdubya> sorry
[08:11] <narg> daryl_ it's probably crashing
[08:12] <daryl_> narg: yeah i'm not sure why its doing this.  It didn't do it yesterday.
[08:12] <erUSUL> abo: if you moved the partitions you have to put your changes in /boot/grub/menu.lst and in /etc/fstab. do it with a livecd
[08:12] <Nutubuntu> cdubya Looks like dpkg -r won't do it; it thinks glabels isn't installed
[08:12] <daryl_> narg: i've used it many times, and it just normally starts ripping the .ogg files
[08:12] <narg> daryl_: have you tried multiple files?
[08:12] <daryl_> narg: let me try a different cd
[08:12] <abo> erUSUL, I'm not running the live cd
[08:13] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, yeah, if you went from source, do what erUSUL said
[08:13] <erUSUL> Nutubuntu: i expect it if apt does not see it dpkg wont too (and viceversa)
[08:13] <abo> erUSUL, what is the change that I need to put?
[08:13] <erUSUL> abo: are you able to boot your ubuntu/linux intall
[08:13] <erUSUL> ?
[08:13] <daryl_> narg: lol its not happening w/this new cd
[08:13] <abo> no
[08:14] <daryl_> narg: it appears to be functioning differently w/a different cd
[08:14] <narg> daryl_: its a crappy cd then. some are like that, and crash programs trying to rip them
[08:14] <cberlo> Hi folks.  Anyone know how to get the 2.4 series of kernels to boot with a SCSI RAID controller as the boot device?  2.6 works seamlessly, but I'm trying to get a feature from 2.4 and can't get it to boot on my Dell PowerEdge 2500
[08:14] <abo> erUSUL, I only have the live cd ... I'm using it now.. but don't know what to do
[08:14] <daryl_> narg: any suggestions?  this is actually a cd we made in house
[08:14] <scifi> will openoffice be able to open .list files so i can query/search in them ?
[08:15] <narg> daryl_: you could try it with commandline cdparanoia, but frankly, its probably screwed.
[08:15] <erUSUL> abo: put the output of fdisk -l /dev/hda in a pastebin (asuming yoiu instaled linux in hda)
[08:15] <cdubya> scifi, couldn't you just use apt-cache search?
[08:15] <daryl_> narg: hah, i guess i'll have to try a windows pc, thanks man
[08:15] <cytrak> is ubuntu 5.x xen 3.x enabled ?

[08:17] <scifi> cdubya, search for apt-cache search in synaptic ?
[08:17] <scifi> cdubya, will it allow me to filter and sort search results ?
[08:17] <cdubya> scifi, no.....what are you searching for?

[08:17] <c0ax__> what could be wrong?
[08:18] <cdubya> scifi, what are you looking for
[08:18] <erUSUL> abo: then put the output of fdisk -l /dev/sda in a pastebin
[08:18] <abo> erUSUL, but now fdisk -l /dev/sda  say cannot open /dev/sda
[08:18] <Skynet243> Hi! how do I make a windows xp compatible samba password form ubuntu? I searched the wiki but couldn't find any answer..

[08:20] <c0ax__> um so i put in the desktop cd to isntall for the first time. anmd after loading drivers and all that stuff it reboots with no warning
[08:20] <scifi> cdubya, yes, they are in a .list format which can be opened in a text viewer. but i need something like a database viewer so that i can filter results
[08:20] <cdubya> scifi, they're text files?
[08:20] <josh__> kkkkkkkkk
[08:20] <erUSUL> scifi: is a csv?
[08:20] <Shannon1> any knowledgeable user on kernel version, welling to take few minute with me for explanations
[08:21] <scifi> cdubya, no they are ".list" files, but they can be opened in text viewer programs
[08:21] <erUSUL> scifi: comma separated value (csv) file
[08:21] <cdubya> scifi, so you can't use something like gedit?
[08:21] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL, they are not csv, but i think they are a similar format to that
[08:21] <cdubya> scifi, I realize that. :)

[08:25] <Aphex_Twin> hello there. relatively speaking, is ubuntu a good choice for a first-time user? (in terms of audio/video/automatic updates)
[08:25] <cdubya> me neither
[08:25] <gnomefreak> nalioth: you got it?
[08:25] <gnomefreak> yep ;)
[08:26] <cdubya> Aphex_Twin, it's a great choice for any user. :)
[08:26] <newbie_> ifconfig?
[08:26] <cdubya> heh
[08:26] <ketetha_> why
[08:26] <cberlo> newbie_: what kind of network card do you have?  Have you tested it with the Live CD?
[08:26] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, why did you just lose operater status
[08:26] <Dokkeri-> Aphex_Twin: Ubuntu is a great choice for a first time Linux user.
[08:26] <cberlo> newbie_: ifconfig should show your configured cards, yes.
[08:26] <newbie_> not yet.. i have just an installation cd available
[08:26] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: i removed it
[08:26] <erUSUL> abo: you forgot the -l! 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda'
[08:26] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, ohh you can add it yourself?
[08:26] <newbie_> well, only lo appears, eth0 is missing
[08:26] <Aphex_Twin> cdubya: I'm thinking in terms of "unix for real real people who like to have audio play mp3"
[08:26] <`Evil`> Can anyone suggest a good torrent client for Ubuntu? (but not Azureus - with least CPU/mem usage)
[08:26] <javiolo> any ubuntu user using fluxbox ? Id like to know how to change the gtk2 themes
[08:26] <cberlo> newbie_: what kind of nic?
[08:27] <Lt-Ubuntu> bittornado
[08:27] <cdubya> Aphex_Twin, it's one of the easiest distros I've used
[08:27] <newbie_> i own a netgear card ...fa 311
[08:27] <Subhuman> `Evil`, bittornado probs
[08:27] <cdubya> Aphex_Twin, and has great support

[08:27] <WhitePerson> hi
[08:27] <`Evil`> subzone, thanks
[08:27] <Lt-Ubuntu> np
[08:27] <cberlo> newbie_: do you know which module it's supposed to load?
[08:27] <Aphex_Twin> how is it in terms of audio alone?
[08:27] <WhitePerson> must i be root to install a kernel module?
[08:27] <Subhuman> Aphex_Twin, ubuntu with easyubuntu then :D
[08:27] <newbie_> not really
[08:27] <`Evil`> Subhuman, woops, Subzone :) but thank

[08:27] <cdubya> Aphex_Twin, worked great with all my h/w out of the box
[08:27] <stefg> `Evil`: maybe http://rufus.sf.net suits you needs... read through the forums ther's an ubuntu package available
[08:27] <newbie_> i thought that dhcp would do everything automatically
[08:27] <abo> erUSUL, oh sorry, trying again
[08:28] <cberlo> newbie_: You should google that.  The do "lsmod | grep <mynic>" with the right module name to see if it found your card
[08:28] <WhitePerson> well how to crackers gain access to root, via root kits, if the user has to be root in the first place to install the root kits?
[08:28] <din> Where exactly does iptables-save save the conf file at in ubuntu?

[08:29] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL: it imported the file into "base", but when it finished it displayed it in "writer" :*(
[08:29] <newbie_> the module is called natsemi
[08:29] <Aphex_Twin> does ubuntu have out-of-the-box support for fancy audio mixing?
[08:29] <cdubya> scifi, heh, ouch
[08:29] <cberlo> Ropechoborra: I have a similar problem on an LTSP setup -- it's got something to do with the flash player
[08:29] <Aphex_Twin> I'm speaking an easy ability to control and manipulate various input/output audio streams
[08:29] <cberlo> Aphex_Twin: you mean like Audacity?
[08:30] <cberlo> newbie_: is natsemi loaded?
[08:30] <abhinay> hi,   i hv a problem with installing Real Player , i did  $ ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin , the error was ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  , wot was the problem ? any suggestions ?
[08:30] <Ropechoborra> cberlo could be a firefox plugins problem?
[08:30] <newbie_> how can i see this?
[08:30] <Aphex_Twin> cberlo: I mean live mixing
[08:30] <newbie_> using lsmod | grep natsemi
[08:30] <ketetha_> abhinay, do you have wine or whatever?

[08:32] <cberlo> newbie_: Depends on what your password is...  it is whatever you set yours to be.
[08:32] <Subhuman> newbie_, your user password
[08:32] <erUSUL> abo: you have one partition for root / and other for /home or /boot?
[08:32] <cberlo> ketetha_, Subhuman:  Nice.  :)
[08:32] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL: hmm doesnt give me that option
[08:32] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: it is the same as your own when U installed Ubuntu
[08:32] <cdubya> scifi, might work
[08:32] <ketetha_> cberlo, haha nice what? nice assistance? hah
[08:32] <cdubya> scifi, hmm
[08:32] <Ropechoborra> newbie_ instead of loggin as root u can use sudo command (its for more security)
[08:33] <Some_Person> I need to disable Ubuntu connecting on startup
[08:33] <cberlo> ketetha_: nice response time
[08:33] <jwhayman> hi there, could someone give me a hand with a problem im having with accessing my shared ubuntu folders on a windows network please?
[08:33] <Some_Person> How do I do it?
[08:33] <ketetha_> cberlo, haha thankss! i thought i was goign to be wrong. i've only had ubuntu for like 2 days
[08:33] <Dr_Sato> Some_Person: Than don't put the cable in :)
[08:33] <abo> erUSUL, it seems the names are different from what they were before... /dev/sda6 seems to be the root
[08:33] <cdubya> Some_Person, I always Ctrl-C when I see the system boot.....
[08:33] <newbie_> it says: ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0
[08:33] <vbgunz> anyone know how I can make my terminal resolution bigger?
[08:33] <cdubya> and it gets to that point
[08:33] <SurfnKid> how do i know what driveres are in the kernel tree??
[08:34] <Some_Person> My modem dials up right when I log in
[08:34] <Dr_Sato> Some_Person: Or by means of BUM don't let your nic come up at boot time
[08:34] <Ropechoborra> jwhayman You mean accesing ubuntu from Windows??
[08:34] <Some_Person> I don't want it to
[08:34] <ketetha_> so is it possible to incoporate your terminal actually in your desktop?
[08:34] <cberlo> newbie_: Sorry, can't get you much further.  Not familiar with Xubuntu
[08:34] <abo> erUSUL, all / , /boot and /home are on the same partition, something else is on the other one
[08:34] <steveire> looks like aptitude doesn' do what I want. Unless it's available, but undocumented...
[08:34] <jwhayman> i mean accessing a shared folder from a windows network
[08:34] <erUSUL> abo: the 7 GB partition?
[08:34] <erUSUL> abo: is root
[08:34] <cberlo> ketetha_: from what I've read, yes.  Not interested in that option, myself.  In theory, anything can run "in" the desktop in X, though.
[08:34] <cdubya> jwhayman, what's the issue
[08:35] <Ropechoborra> jwhayman cant help u on that.. dont got a network yet where to test =/
[08:35] <newbie_> is there another channel for xubuntu?
[08:35] <abo> erUSUL, yes, I was trying to increase it... this is what caused the mess ( I had to play around with other partitions - moving and resizing)
[08:35] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: when does it say : ignoring interface eth0=eth0
[08:35] <Some_Person> So how do I stop ubuntu from auto-connecting to the internet?
[08:35] <jwhayman> ive installed SAMBA and everything and i can see the folders that are being shared in my windows network and the permissions on Ubuntu are set correctly but i cant access them
[08:35] <newbie_> after entering sudo ifup eth0
[08:35] <cberlo> newbie_: yep:  #xubuntu
[08:35] <ketetha_> cberlo, do you know how it works or no a link that explains it
[08:35] <cdubya> jwhayman, what's the error
[08:35] <cdubya> if any
[08:35] <Some_Person> the device is ppp0
[08:36] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: Ah okay.... is it configured correctly?
[08:36] <cberlo> ketetha_: Sorry, it's been a while since I played with that, and the way Ubuntu does things is a bit different that the way I once did it years ago.  I just know it's possible!  :)
[08:36] <jwhayman> cdubya configuration information could not be read from the domain controller
[08:36] <newbie_> i'm not sure .. the installation procedure for dhcp failed
[08:36] <steveire> any aptitude whiz in here?
[08:36] <ketetha_> cberlo, haha well thats hope enough!! thankss :) ima google it. google is my best friend ya know
[08:36] <erUSUL> abo: well you are in the good track. all you have to do is mount your root partition from the live cd. then edit fstab to reflect the changes you made
[08:36] <cberlo> ketetha_: I used to run the Matrix screensaver in my desktop window.  Pretty cool looking.
[08:36] <newbie_> but lsmod lists the appropriate driver
[08:37] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: your going to fast... speaking in bits and pieces... first start explaining what the problem is!
[08:37] <cberlo> newbie_: Did you try the dhclient eth0 command?
[08:37] <abo> erUSUL, I failed to do so with gparted and evms, so I restarted in windows, and tried to do it using partition magic, and it asked to restart, and when I restarted, I couldn't boot, so I suspect there is a partition magic job hanging waiting to boot in windows the first time to work again, I think I'll have to do what I'm doing now .. once again ;)
[08:37] <erUSUL> abo: to mount the partition do 'sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdx /mnt/'
[08:37] <ketetha_> cberlo, haha i always stuck to the moving text across the screen in window. now mine is set at random. i'm never off the computer so it doesn thave a chance to go off anyway
[08:37] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL: hmm, it looked like it had opene dit in "writer" by default. just tried opening it in "base", it imports, but when i try to go to "tables" it says " the connection to the data source movies coould not be established" and mentions SQL Status: S1000
[08:37] <newbie_> well i left dhcp unconfigured since it failed during the installation process
[08:37] <vbgunz> anyone know how I can make my terminal resolution bigger?
[08:38] <cberlo> well, gotta run.  ttyl
[08:38] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL: ne ideas how i link sql with openoffice ?
[08:38] <slowz3r> why is there noo options under tools in firefox??
[08:38] <newbie_> now the rest of the system is up but i have to get my nic working
[08:38] <cdubya> scifi, no idea there...I always use mysql and php
[08:38] <scifi> cdubya: shud i try that ?
[08:38] <kbrosnan> slowz3r, gnome human interface guidelines
[08:39] <cdubya> scifi, it would require the data to be in a table in a mysql db
[08:39] <slowz3r> kbrosnan, and that means ?
[08:39] <newbie_> i entered sudo ifup eth0 and got "ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"
[08:39] <cdubya> jwhayman, so you can't get any kind of connection without that error?
[08:40] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: Okay... DHCP might be the problem. But like cberlo said. did you try dhcpclient eth0 command?
[08:40] <newbie_> however with ifconfig eth0 appears
[08:40] <cdubya> huh. he left.
[08:40] <cdubya> heh
[08:40] <scifi> cdubya: how wud i go about doing that ?
[08:40] <newbie_> after ifup eth0 yes
[08:40] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: that only means that it is recognised by your machine/os/thinggy
[08:40] <kbrosnan> slowz3r, that the people who write the gnome deskop want what would be called options in the tools menu of windows called preferences in the edit menu
[08:40] <cdubya> scifi, what kinda format is the .list file? is it like csv?
[08:40] <ketetha_> is anyone familar with running the terminal in the desktop?
[08:41] <jwhayman> cdubya, have you got any ideas about what is wrong please?
[08:41] <Subhuman> ketetha_, yes, applications /accesories/terminal??
[08:41] <Dr_Sato> You need to reconfigure your adapter/nic
[08:41] <slowz3r> kbrosnan, ok i got it now thanks
[08:41] <newbie_> then a few times dhcpdiscover was done .. but in the end i received "no working leases in persistent database - sleeping"
[08:41] <abo> erUSUL, I'm going to reboot now
[08:41] <cdubya> jwhayman, did you smbpasswd -a all the users......?
[08:41] <Dr_Sato> Ow hold on....
[08:41] <newbie_> how can i do this reconfiguration?
[08:41] <ketetha_> Subhuman, haha not quite. like putting it in the desktop. so its there. forever. or able to take outt
[08:41] <Some_Perso1> Please help me stop Ubuntu from auto-dialing when i log in
[08:41] <ketetha_> Some_Perso1, auto-dialing to the net?
[08:41] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: Do U have a machine that runs DHCP so you CAN get a Ip?
[08:41] <cdubya> jwhayman, and can you tell samba to NOT act as PDC and at least get the share working first, then go to the PDC setup
[08:42] <scifi> cdubya: ubuntus description of the file is "plain text document"
[08:42] <cdubya> scifi, heh
[08:42] <cdubya> yeha
[08:42] <cdubya> yeah
[08:42] <Subhuman> ketetha_, ahh drawing it to the root window.
[08:42] <cdubya> scifi, got a link?
[08:42] <Subhuman> ketetha_, i dont know if you can do it in GNOME
[08:42] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: as in DO you have a DHCP server/ router or something
[08:42] <santi> Hello all
[08:42] <scifi> cdubya: gimme a sec

[08:42] <Dr_Sato> lo santi
[08:42] <newbie_> yes i have 2 windows machines that apparently are able to get an ip via dhcp from the router .. but not via cable but via wlan, shouldn't matter
[08:42] <jwhayman> cdubya, ok ill try that, the folders are currently visible but so they are being shared and the permissions in Ubuntu are set correctly but i havent checked the smbpasswd
[08:42] <newbie_> i have a router
[08:42] <BrianWOOT> Anyone here use Ubuntu Themes?
[08:43] <Some_Person> Yes, it auto-connects to the net
[08:43] <cdubya> jwhayman, man smbpasswd.....
[08:43] <jwhayman> cdubya, yep just reading about it, thanks very much
[08:43] <cdubya> jwhayman, it's really straightforward, but that has given me headaches before because I forgot to do it....:)
[08:43] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: maybe I'm off but is ther a cable sticking out of your system that runs towards teh router that DHCP's?
[08:43] <santi> I've got a problem with OO 2.org
[08:43] <Some_Person> Sometimes I like using the phone

[08:44] <kbrosnan> slowz3r, http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/menus-standard.html#menu-standard-edit
[08:44] <erUSUL> scifi: most spreadsheet and db apps can impor ascii files you can try that route
[08:44] <Some_Person> I'm using Dapper
[08:44] <cdubya> jwhayman, if that doesn't work, I'd disable the PDC, then restart samba and try to connect that way.....
[08:44] <scifi> cdubya: ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/tv+movies/imdb/  download ratings.list.gz or movies.list.gz
[08:44] <santi> it worked perfectly on the breezy
[08:44] <Subhuman> ketetha_, i had it in WindowMaker but its crap, so much easier to just push Ctrl Alt F1 when you need a terminal.
[08:44] <jwhayman> cdubya, thanks very much, ill just get my head around it and see if i can get it to work
[08:44] <Some_Person> I didn't have this problem on Breezy.

[08:49] <cdubya> Some_Person, have you tried to disable the connection in the Network Settings
[08:49] <Stormx2> aranux: o.O you want to make your own distro?
[08:49] <jwhayman> cdubya, im having a little trouble getting my head around the smbpasswd, the windows computer im using to try and access the shared files on the Ubuntu computer, does it need an account?
[08:49] <JuhazOne> another dvd i burnt a long time ago works fine
[08:49] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: U have X running?
[08:49] <aranux> <Stormx2 yes
[08:50] <cdubya> jwhayman, yes, it has to have a user account on the ubuntu box the same name as you're trying to connect as
[08:50] <newbie_> i have xfce running
[08:50] <newbie_> what's x?
[08:50] <ketetha_> Subhuman, thanksss for telling me about all this! i'm alwaysllooking for new exciting things that ubuntu has
[08:50] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: System > Administration > networking
[08:50] <cdubya> jwhayman, then, once you've created the user account on the ubuntu box, make sure to do a smbpasswd -a username for it
[08:50] <vbgunz> anyone know how I can make my terminal resolution bigger?
[08:51] <Subhuman> ketetha_, no worries man, anytime :D
[08:51] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: please tell me what is in the tabs General, DNS,
[08:51] <ketetha_> Subhuman, SVGA plugin for Bochs. would that be the F12 terminal?
[08:51] <jwhayman> cdubya, so the ubuntu box will need a username which is the same as the windows computer name? eg the computer is called 123abc i need to make an account on the ubuntu box 123abc?
[08:51] <Ensiferum> dapper seems to have lots of problems out of the box :/
[08:51] <newbie_> connections: eth0 not configured
[08:51] <srbaker> hey, libxine-extracodecs doesn't seem to exist in multiverse

[08:52] <newbie_> general: computer: ubuntu; domain: is empty there
[08:52] <Lynoure> srbaker: easyubuntu is quite nice for quite many nonfree codecs, maybe those too?

[08:53] <Ropechoborra> Or... how can i add subtitles for a .avi ??
[08:53] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: Sounds like something went wrong int the burn process and the first one ended toast
[08:53] <Generic> can anyone help with a linksys wmp54g card? it isn't being detected
[08:53] <srbaker> the lpackage i'm looking for is libxine-extracodecs, and all of the dosc i can find say it should be in multiverse
[08:53] <cdubya> jwhayman, yeah, that will keep it simple for you.....so if the netbios name for the windows box is nuts and the other bolts, then you need to create one user on the ubuntu box called nuts and another called bolts....then do an smbpasswd -a nuts and the same thing except with the bolts user
[08:53] <aranux> Stormx2 :  yes i want to build a personal costomized ubuntu based distro that can fit on my old laptop  and my favorat apps
[08:53] <srbaker> but i'll look at easyubuntu

[08:55] <Stormx2> aranux: You don't want to make your own, you just want a lightweight ubuntu
[08:55] <aranux> c++ perl and python
[08:55] <ketetha_> Some_Person, ohh i thought you had dsl. well i have no clue how it works. i've always thought the auto dialing was convient
[08:55] <JuhazOne> ketetha_: you don't need to be burning... just know something about dvds :)
[08:55] <cdubya> Some_Person, System > Administration > Networking

[08:55] <cdubya> that ought take care of it.....
[08:55] <cdubya> I'd think...
[08:56] <Some_Person> ok
[08:56] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: getting it up?
[08:56] <erUSUL> abo: it is becouse you root changed and so you have to change it in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab
[08:56] <cdubya> Some_Person, as long as you don't need it enabled, then you should be good to go.....restart your machine and see if it tries after you login....
[08:56] <ketetha_> Subhuman, what is conky for exactly?
[08:57] <JuhazOne> sigh..
[08:57] <cdubya> ketetha_, system info

[08:57] <jwhayman> cdubya, sorry to bother you again, ive done this: i got the computer name of the windows computer from the system (dca58779) and added that as a user to Ubuntu, then did sudo smbpasswd -a -n dca58779 in the terminal, then restarted the service but still it doesnt work
[08:57] <Stormx2> aranux: I don't know.
[08:57] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: So the data on the burned dvds verifies but the cds doen't work? How does that go?
[08:57] <ketetha_> Stormx2, no you left me in my time of need. i dont know if i can forgive you yet :)
[08:57] <aranux> Stormx2 :  thank you any way
[08:57] <Ropechoborra> Need to add subtitles to a .avi video.. someone can helpme ????
[08:57] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol
[08:57] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Did you get audacious installed?
[08:58] <JuhazOne> Lynoure: at least they verified right after burning
[08:58] <javiolo> any ubuntu user using fluxbox ? Id like to know how to change the gtk2 themes
[08:58] <JuhazOne> Lynoure: but i'm using a different installation of ubuntu now
[08:58] <techrush-> im having trouble getting my hp laserjet 1022 printer working with 6.06 can anyone help ?
[08:58] <cdubya> jwhayman, did you get any kind of error?
[08:58] <JuhazOne> i suppose it shouldn't have anything to do with it. but then again, how do you know..
[08:58] <ketetha_> stormx2, yepp! i did the sudo make install and viola. buti havent reallyopned it yet. haha. llet me go check it out
[08:58] <jwhayman> cdubya, it says that the full name of the computer is dca58779.dca.bm do i need to add taht last bit?
[08:59] <cdubya> jwhayman, no.....that's winders stuff....
[08:59] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: Might be worth checking that again. Sometimes there is disk rot, though I guess something bad would have had to happen to 3 have it in one go.
[08:59] <cdubya> heh
[08:59] <Some_Perso1> Doing that completely disabled my dialup
[08:59] <Lynoure> techrush-: Me too
[08:59] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its worth an open. I have some really neat themes for it too...
[08:59] <ketetha_> Subhuman, okk im waiting to see what will hapen
[08:59] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Its basicly a winamp clone, really nice lightweight player
[08:59] <cdubya> jwhayman, what error did you get
[08:59] <JuhazOne> Lynoure: checking what again?
[08:59] <Lynoure> techrush-: Based on what I find on google, no one else got it working either
[08:59] <recovery> hi ubuntu. how can i get root with a user that's not in the sudoers?
[08:59] <ketetha_> Stormx2, i've never heard of winampp :) here it goess. opening and what nott:)
[08:59] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: the files vs. checksums, if they can be read with some computer
[09:00] <h3h_timo> !gimpshop
[09:00] <ubotu> I know nothing about gimpshop - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[09:00] <JuhazOne> Lynoure: the dvd won't mount
[09:00] <Some_Person> cdubya: clicking disable completely disabled my dialup
[09:00] <olrrai_X> sudo su
[09:00] <h3h_timo> !deb
[09:00] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[09:00] <mikechml> recovery: i don't think you can :p
[09:00] <cdubya> Some_Person, umm, yes....
[09:00] <jwhayman> cdubya, the same error as before: \\Dca\shared is not accessible..... etc..... might not have permission... configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, eithe rmachine not available or access denied
[09:00] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: on one computer? Or on any?
[09:00] <ossie> hi guys im a looking for some support with a basic shell script
[09:00] <JuhazOne> i have just this one :/
[09:00] <ketetha_> Stormx2, OMG its so tiny
[09:00] <h3h_timo> how do you create a .deb file from sourcE??
[09:00] <Lynoure> JuhazOne: The reading drive might be suspect...
[09:00] <gavagai> Ok, i created a second mountpoint for a certain directory, but I made a mistake.  How can I unmount it?  I did :  mount --bind /original/directory /copy/of original
[09:00] <_M_U_N_G_O_> ike' ile ludu co?
[09:00] <JuhazOne> Lynoure: well, it did read a dvd i burnt a long time ago
[09:00] <ike`> duzio

[09:01] <SurfnKid> anyone with a Dell 8600?
[09:01] <Lynoure> techrush-: I'm about to be desperate and compile my own hplip packages in effort of getting it to work
[09:01] <SurfnKid> or used the i8k util?
[09:01] <cdubya> jwhayman, so what permissions do you have on the share?
[09:01] <_M_U_N_G_O_> bye

[09:01] <techrush-> i setup ubuntu on my moms comp today but it is absolutely worthless without printing
[09:01] <techrush-> :[
[09:01] <Lynoure> techrush-: Sorry, it was not what I wanted to find out either. Works fine in debian unstable... took all 3min to install
[09:01] <ossie> can anyne see what is worn with that
[09:02] <Some_Person> please help me
[09:02] <Lynoure> techrush-: so it _can_ work in linux.
[09:02] <techrush-> stupid ubuntu
[09:02] <ossie> whoops wrong part
[09:02] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol, ok then give it a rest ^_^ clearly not for you
[09:02] <recovery> mikechml, well, i have a user that is a sudoer, except, i messed up his home directory and gnome wont start. I want to start him up from scratch, so i deluser, and i get an error. Is there a way to like "refresh" a user?
[09:02] <jwhayman> oops
[09:02] <cdubya> Some_Person, I've honestly not used dialup on ubuntu, just was suggesting a way you could stop it from auto-dialing as that's what you were asking.....
[09:02] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it got bigger! it was just aline. now its boxy :) pretty stuff.
[09:02] <Lynoure> techrush-: My wild guess is that it takes just a tab newer hplip, 0.9.9 instead of 0.9.7 in dapper. Want me to keep you posted?
[09:02] <jwhayman> cdubya, im not a registered user it wont allow me to pm
[09:02] <cdubya> jwhayman, ah
[09:02] <cdubya> register
[09:02] <cdubya> :)
[09:02] <abo> erUSUL, ok so /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/menu.lst , anything else?
[09:02] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it better be for me after all that hoopla :)
[09:03] <jwhayman> cdubya, drwxrwxrwx 3 jwhayman admin    4096 2006-07-12 11:59 shared
[09:03] <Some_Person> yes, but i want it like it was on Breezy
[09:03] <h3h_timo> could someone point me in the direction of how to create a .deb file from a source package??
[09:03] <techrush-> Lynoure, please keep me posted yes
[09:03] <mikechml> recovery: go into single user/recovery mode and fix it
[09:03] <Ensiferum> lol at the package dependencies, removing irssi requires also removing ubuntu-desktop
[09:03] <erUSUL> abo: if you correct the info there you will recover your instalation
[09:03] <Ensiferum> what fecking shit is this?
[09:03] <cdubya> jwhayman, did you turn off the PDC?
[09:03] <Stormx2> ketetha_: lol... well get some themes... theres a real good set called "remake"
[09:03] <Lynoure> techrush-: msg me with a way to contact you (email, permanently present irc nick, whatever) and I'll do that. I'll prolly get to try it next time this weekend
[09:04] <mikearthur> why does postfix give me a "postalias: fatal: open database /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied" I'm root!
[09:04] <ketetha_> Stormx2, musics not really working thouhg :(
[09:04] <ketetha_> Stormx2, doe sit not take ogg?
[09:04] <jwhayman> cdubya, i dont know what the PDC is
[09:04] <cdubya> jwhayman, you want to just pastebin your smb.conf for me?
[09:04] <recovery> mikechml, how? what command do i want to type? as it is, he has nothing in his home dir...at all. i need to just give him a skeleton
[09:04] <cdubya> scifi, you still here?
[09:05] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Should do, if you set up the right libs and ./configured again like I said
[09:05] <revilot> how can i check my agp settings on an ati card?
[09:05] <Nutubuntu> Hm ... I have renamed every glabels*.* file I can find but when I type the command "glabels" it still tries to run ... what have I missed?
[09:05] <jwhayman> cdubya, sure no proble, woudl you be able to tell me how to do that please? im new to irc
[09:05] <recovery> with like a .gnome2 file and .dmrc. those are the files im getting errors from
[09:05] <cdubya> np. links in the topic....
[09:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, hmm. hmm. wel. i'm too lazy to fix it now ;) i'll try that tomororw
[09:05] <ceruleantiger> I have a AMD X2:3800+ (dual core) and for some reason gnome-system-monitor identifies only 1 cpu. /proc/cpuinfo shows 'processor:0' which is even more bizarre... since it's a pretty fast system even with one core active, I guess I haven't noticed, but it irks me...
[09:05] <ketetha_> Stormx2, The following files could not be played. Please check that:
[09:05] <ketetha_> 1. they are accessible.
[09:05] <ketetha_> 2. you have enabled the media plugins required.
[09:05] <ceruleantiger> I'm running the most recent x86 kernel (as in yesterday's update)
[09:05] <cdubya> !pastebin
[09:05] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[09:05] <Prozac> i already had it that way, ubotu.
[09:06] <cdubya> jwhayman, ^^^^^^^^^^ there you go
[09:06] <Lynoure> techrush-: or, if you don't mind sharing that with all the growd, the channel is fine too.
[09:06] <jwhayman> cdubya thank you
[09:06] <Nutubuntu> erUSUL or cdubya  ... I have renamed every glabels*.* file I can find but when I type the command "glabels" it still tries to run ... what have I missed?
[09:06] <revilot> how can i check my agp settings on an ati card?
[09:07] <Rower|Magda> How to see what packages ive installed with apt-get
[09:07] <Meatwad> i have a 500GB external hard drive and I was wondering what file-system i should format it in so as to be most efficient with ubuntu ?
[09:07] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, you're having fun, huh?
[09:07] <cdubya> heh
[09:07] <cdubya> umm, just a sec
[09:07] <Nutubuntu> cdubya ... yep ... : )
[09:07] <Nutubuntu> cdubya - thought it would be safer to mv than rm
[09:08] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, that would seem that you need to remove the exec from /usr/bin prolly, but just a guess.....
[09:08] <ketetha_> Stormx2, ill try gain later. haha
[09:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Audacious gave you that?
[09:08] <mikearthur> why does postfix give me a "postalias: fatal: open database /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied" I'm root!
[09:08] <ketetha_> Stormx2, yepp
[09:08] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, sudo mv /usr/bin/glabels /home/user/Desktop or something of that nature
[09:08] <Nutubuntu> cdubya ... I'll look for it. I'd have sworn it was not there but ... no harm in double checking
[09:08] <Stormx2> ketetha_: make sure you have nothing open using sound, or go to preferences and change the output plugin
[09:08] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, locate glabels
[09:08] <seagulltheme> after last updating ubuntu with synaptic, all KDE programs get strange errors, and all of them get one which gives me the error messsage "could not start process unable to create io-slave: permission denied"
[09:08] <amonkey> how can i let my ubuntu machine look hostnames on my lan? i don't want to have to use ips to connect to other servers, just their hostnames.
[09:08] <ketetha_> what is the oint of conky
[09:09] <ketetha_> Stormx2, to what? change the output plugin to what
[09:09] <Stormx2> ketetha_: What is it currently?
[09:09] <cdubya> kethetha_, I always thought it was another of those system monitors....:)
[09:09] <ketetha_> Stormx2, one sec it is OSS output plugin
[09:09] <jwhayman> cdubya, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17852
[09:09] <Stormx2> ketetha_: Change it to ALSA if that's available
[09:09] <Prozac> Stormx2: that doesn't look right
[09:10] <Stormx2> Prozac: Hmm?
[09:10] <Prozac> no idea, stormx2
[09:10] <Stormx2> Prozac: What?
[09:10] <Prozac> wish i knew, stormx2
[09:10] <bertu> Hey can someone suggest a converter which converts .ogg to .mp3 for my mp3 player?
[09:10] <Rower|Magda> How to see what packages ive installed with apt-get
[09:10] <Stormx2> Oh wtf
[09:10] <ketetha_> Stormx2, it has OSS and Disk Writer

[09:11] <fouadbajwa> yeups
[09:11] <novok> hello all
[09:11] <gatekeeper> Rower|Magda: I would imagine the easiest way would be to use your GUI package Manager
[09:11] <veleno> hello everyone. where do i set the PATH variable for all sudo users ? i launch sudo sh plexus.sh, and it needs the mvn executable being in the PATH
[09:12] <fouadbajwa> i use VLAN for all video requirements
[09:12] <Rower|Magda> gatekeeper: well .. cant :D
[09:12] <jwhayman> cdubya, any ideas?

[09:12] <fouadbajwa> i think you will find it in the downloader/updater/synaptic
[09:12] <noway-> Heya.  I have added the universe repositories to my source list, but when I try to get irb, it still doesnt find it.  I have tried apt-get upgrade too
[09:12] <novok> salut ruchard
[09:12] <Rower|Magda> fouadbajwa: where is that
[09:12] <willdev> hello
[09:12] <Rower|Magda> novok: danke =)
[09:12] <cdubya> jwhayman, ok, let's back up and start over.....

[09:13] <ketetha_> prozac, i hate you bye
[09:13] <Prozac> ketetha_: i'm not following you...
[09:13] <willdev> could i get samba server on ubuntu?
[09:13] <noway-> mikechml: yes
[09:13] <fouadbajwa> http://www.videolan.org
[09:13] <Rower|Magda> novok: did anyone find out what the italian said to the french player?
[09:13] <ketetha_> prozac, haha funny stuff man
[09:13] <Prozac> ketetha_: sorry...
[09:13] <willdev> anyone got a guide?
[09:13] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: dpkg -l does a pretty good job
[09:13] <ketetha_> !samba
[09:13] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:13] <Nutubuntu> erUSUL ... thanks anyhow ... I'm hunting.
[09:13] <abo> erUSUL, still not working :-(
[09:13] <ketetha_> !tell willdev about samba
[09:13] <gatekeeper> Rower|Magda: apt-cache show or something like that
[09:13] <ketetha_> willdev, did you get that
[09:13] <ketetha_> heyy guyss gotta goo. byeeee
[09:13] <ketetha_> Stormx2, byeee.
[09:14] <illvarg> it there any other repos for e17 other than http://www.soulmachine.net/debian/??
[09:14] <cdubya> Nutubuntu, was it in /usr/bin?
[09:14] <jwhayman> cdubya, the workgroup is like this Microsoft Windows Network > Dca
[09:14] <Stormx2> ketetha_: ok, cya!
[09:14] <Rower|Magda> apt-cache show returns.. no packages found
[09:14] <gatekeeper> !apt-cache
[09:14] <ubotu> I know nothing about apt-cache - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[09:14] <novok> yes i said ti zidane " everybody knows your are a mother focker terrorist"
[09:14] <willdev> thank you :)
[09:14] <noway-> mikechml: hrm, it worked this time, thanks :-)
[09:14] <cdubya> jwhayman, that's looking in Network neighborhood, yes?
[09:14] <jwhayman> cdubya, everyones computers are there, the ubuntu one is labelled DCAUbunt (Dca)
[09:14] <willdev> i installed xgl yey!!!
[09:14] <ceruleantiger> Rower|Magda: the italian guy said that it was one of those common insults that just slips out, so it wasn't anything directly personal (from what I understand)
[09:14] <fouadbajwa> guys any guides to latest linux GUI or 4 Gen programming?
[09:15] <Lynoure> gatekeeper: hmm, something I'm forgetting about   dpkg -l ?
[09:15] <Rower|Magda> ceruleantiger: well seemed more like a personal insult..
[09:15] <fouadbajwa> has anyone tried the LAMP Server of 6.06 LTS
[09:15] <jwhayman> cdubya, my network places > entire network > microsoft windows network > Dca
[09:15] <Rower|Magda> ceruleantiger: then the player filmed it..
[09:15] <bertu> when i nstall vlan from where i can run it?
[09:15] <abo> erUSUL, I'm going to paste the content of /etc/fstab, and /boot/grub/menu.lst, could you have a look plz
[09:15] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: did you try   dkpg -l   already?
[09:15] <Dr_Sato> fouadbajwa: Yes I did was up?
[09:15] <fouadbajwa>  http://www.videolan.org comes into the start menu
[09:15] <cdubya> jwhayman, ok. do you have a static ip for the ubuntu machine?
[09:15] <ceruleantiger> Rower|Magda: who knows, that's just what the italian guy said
[09:15] <illvarg> willdev: xgl? cool. which howto did you use?
[09:15] <fryfrog> any suggestions on a good guide for xgl / ubuntu?
[09:16] <bertu> !xgl
[09:16] <fryfrog> google turns up a few results
[09:16] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[09:16] <geeksauce> every time i do a full distro upgrade, the older ones are still listed in GRUB.  i assume that means they are still on my hard drive.  are they taking up a lot of real estate?
[09:16] <fouadbajwa> Dr_Sato how has the experience been, are there screenshot based tutorials availabel
[09:16] <seagulltheme> after last updating ubuntu, all KDE programs get errors I don't recognize.  they all get the error messsage "could not start process unable to create io-slave: permission denied" as well
[09:16] <illvarg> willdev: graphicscard?
[09:16] <jwhayman> cdubya, no its assigned a dhcp, 192.168.0.236 at the moment, also im running an apache webserver on it which is only accessible locally
[09:16] <fryfrog> thanks
[09:16] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: THANX
[09:16] <fouadbajwa> there already are Ubuntu-Linux guides on the website guys
[09:16] <jwhayman> cdubya, ie just the local network
[09:16] <novok> someone can help me here in french i prefere it's about break dependancies
[09:16] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: been searching for this command for like 2 month now :D
[09:16] <cdubya> jwhayman, k. might set that as a static.....
[09:16] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: oh, it does cut the package name a bit short... there was a workaround... which I cannot recall
[09:16] <bertu> !french
[09:16] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:17] <Dr_Sato> fouadbajwa: it's Server no X unless You install it http://www.ubuntu.com/support/faq?action=show&redirect=FAQ in the faq it's explained.
[09:17] <Dr_Sato> But it works like a charm.
[09:17] <Rower|Magda> ceruleantiger: well.. he said it..
[09:17] <Dr_Sato> Basic are taken care of in the server
[09:17] <gatekeeper> Rower|Magda: here is a list of options http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/updating-redhat/apt-howto/how-to-use-apt-cache.html
[09:17] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: if you make you console wider, if helps :)
[09:17] <unity> hello, i am ssh'ed into a computer, can someone tell how i can know for sure that it is running ubuntu?
[09:17] <willdev> samba looks too confusing :(
[09:17] <fouadbajwa> Dr. Cool cool, do you know any IP thats running the server online?
[09:17] <jwhayman> cdubya, do i keep the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address blank?
[09:17] <fouadbajwa> i mean in full hosting environment
[09:18] <willdev> is there any other way of sharing files to a windows machne
[09:18] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: oops, "it helps"
[09:18] <willdev> *machine
[09:18] <cdubya> jwhayman, subnet mask is right, gateway is the IP of your router
[09:18] <Dr_Sato> No guides needed... it's Ubuntu ;) just kidding... it works great...  and with an X it's just like the desktop version...
[09:18] <Dr_Sato> I don't know of any ubuntu server 6 in the world maybe someone else... mine is only for internal purposes
[09:18] <jwhayman> cdubya, i dont have access to the router, so is the gateway value just 192.168.0.1 ?
[09:18] <cdubya> prolly
[09:18] <fouadbajwa> is the X installed by default
[09:19] <geeksauce> anyone?  should i get rid of older distro's if i have no need for them?  are they taking up a lot of hard drive space?
[09:19] <fouadbajwa> or has to be done through manual commands
[09:19] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: I'm curious though, what are you using it for? It's handy for multiple things
[09:19] <Dr_Sato> willdev: usbstick, floppys, external HDD or removing Windows :)
[09:19] <willdev> :(
[09:19] <willdev> dam it
[09:19] <Dr_Sato> fouadbajwa: I had to install it manually ...
[09:19] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: well.. my mysql fucked up for some reason :/.. when im doing apt-get install mysql-server it says that socket doesent exists
[09:19] <slowz3r> geeksauce,  i would if ur not usin em
[09:19] <scott> hey, wondered if anyone could help. using the latest ati fglrx drivers, google earth (also latest version) hard locks after only a minute or two of using it, anyone have any ideas why/fixes to the problem??
[09:20] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: so i wanted the command to see if there was something ive installed earlier that blocked it
[09:20] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: and there was a mysql-client probably blocking it
[09:20] <Dr_Sato> willdev: or burning rewritebles... but why Samba is pretty nifty,,, with a web adminstration tool (SWAT) it's handy dandy
[09:20] <cdubya> jwhayman, you have the static setup now?
[09:20] <novok> scott: what's your cg is it a laptop
[09:20] <scott> cg? no im not on a laptop
[09:20] <techrush-> man my mom is gonna be so mad at me if she cant print
[09:20] <techrush-> :[
[09:20] <willdev> im a n00b to linux :( it took me 2 hours to install xgl lol
[09:21] <Lynoure> Rower|Magda: you might also enjoy debfoster, it helps against having stuff hanging around that you no longer need
[09:21] <Ropechoborra> Need to add subtitles to a .avi video.. someone can helpme ????
[09:21] <fouadbajwa> Dr_Sato don't you think the server should be graphical as well
[09:21] <geeksauce> slowz3r, what's the quickest way to get rid of them?
[09:21] <fouadbajwa> or
[09:21] <Rower|Magda> Lynoure: can i use it without x
[09:21] <Rower|Magda> ?
[09:21] <MarcN> Rower|Magda: try purging --   apt-get --purge remove mysql-server (assuming you don't care about your database table info).  Then add it back.
[09:21] <fouadbajwa> there must be some way to enable the default gnome?
[09:21] <newbie_> dr_sato: sorry, i got a phone call
[09:21] <Dr_Sato> willdev: try Samba in combination with SWAT (easy as hell eve I can do it) :)
[09:21] <newbie_> now i'm back
[09:21] <Rower|Magda> MarcN: well doesent work
[09:21] <willdev> got a link for SWAT all i get on google is the attack force lol
[09:22] <scott> novok: whats cg? and no im not on a laptop
[09:22] <Lynoure> techrush-: like I said, I don't mind keeping you posted and if my theory works, I'll let you know. But so far I don't know how to contact you.
[09:22] <newbie_> under hosts there are 8 entries
[09:22] <MarcN> Rower|Magda: I may have the syntax wrong.
[09:22] <ketetha_> everyone nkows i cant stay away for TOO long
[09:22] <newbie_> ff00::0 ip7-mcastprefix
[09:22] <Dr_Sato> fouadbajwa: Actually i'm in 2 separate thing in my mind. Grafical will work  easier. but without an X and only a prompt I can use all my proc power for the server and not to run an X that doesn't do anything most of the time
[09:22] <newbie_> 127.0.0.1 localhost ubuntu
[09:22] <novok> the ati reference
[09:23] <newbie_> fe00:0 uo6-localhost
[09:23] <Rower|Magda> MarcN: thanx
[09:23] <newbie_> ff02:2 ip6-allrouters
[09:23] <jwhayman> cdubya, changing my settings from dhcp to static causes the computer to disconnect
[09:23] <KC9JTW_Lars> Is there anything in apt that's similar to Streets & Trips?
[09:23] <abo> erUSUL, can you have a look at this please, http://pastebin.ca/86321
[09:23] <newbie_> ff02:1 ip6-allnodes
[09:23] <KC9JTW_Lars> ie, mapping software, that can be linked to a GPS?

[09:24] <scott> novok: sorry still dont get which reference you mean? do you mean BusID? opengl version? renderer string etc>?
[09:24] <Dr_Sato> willdev: heheh... in the packedge manager on your X System > Administration > Synaptic packedge manager search for Samba and than look for Swat.... click it to install and have fun  (just try it...  no pain no gain :))
[09:24] <MarcN> KC9JTW_Lars: see gpsdrive (or try apt-cache search gps    for more gps related stuff, like gpsbabel)
[09:24] <Lynoure> techrush-: hmm, msging might not work if you are a non-identified user on Freenode
[09:24] <compengi> if i gave someone a user when he wants to install something in his home directory he get permission denied?
[09:25] <KC9JTW_Lars> MarcN: thank you for the information :)
[09:25] <Dr_Sato> newbe_: well ... I'm stuck with yours...
[09:25] <compengi> why?
[09:25] <jwhayman> cdubya, i think it may be something to do with having apache2 or something but i dont really have any ideas, ive been trying to work out whats been going wrong all day
[09:26] <Some_Person> where are the files for the Dapper Progress Bar located?
[09:26] <newbie_> do i have to make a dns entry?
[09:26] <cdubya> jwhayman, that's wierd.....I just shared my home folder using the shared folders app and I can try to mount it, but I get kicked out....(I know why though....it's the netbios name_
[09:26] <Tom7e> how do i uninstall the old kernel?
[09:27] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: no that would serve no purpose
[09:27] <Psy> hello hello
[09:27] <Dr_Sato> It's something with the configuration of the nic
[09:27] <geeksauce> Tom7e, i've been trying to get an answer to that question for the past 5 minutes
[09:27] <ossie> while [ "$i" -lt 6 ] 
[09:27] <ossie> do
[09:27] <ossie>         if [ "$spacecounter" -lt "$disk1" ] 
[09:27] <ossie>         then
[09:27] <ossie>        $spacecounter = $disk1
[09:27] <ossie>         echo $spaceounter
[09:27] <jwhayman> cdubya, so do you think that is what is wrong with mine too?
[09:27] <ossie> can anyone see what is wrong with that?? please
[09:27] <Dr_Sato> or hardware incompatibillities
[09:27] <Dr_Sato> Did the nic ever work?
[09:27] <cdubya> jwhayman, yeah, I just got logged in fine when I used the win2k user that is the netbios name of the winders box
[09:27] <Rower|Magda> Can someone solve the problem im having when im trying to install ubuntu and it whines that i have an integrated video card...

[09:28] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: so it never worked?
[09:28] <ossie> yes Psy I my NIC has stopped working since using latest version of dapper
[09:28] <cdubya> jwhayman, well, we can walk through it step by step again if you want, just to make sure
[09:28] <secureboot> anyone know of anything similar to iWeb in scope and features for free on linux?
[09:28] <geeksauce> Tom7e, will do
[09:28] <newbie_> no, but in connections i see, that eth0 is active
[09:28] <Dr_Sato> it does this from the biginning?
[09:28] <TheMoebius> how do i add an application launcher to the applications menu? and how do I remove one?
[09:28] <torpedo|dog> TheMoebius: do you mean the panel or the menu?
[09:29] <cdubya> secureboot, umm, I've never used iWeb, but I've heard lots of folks who recommend Nvu
[09:29] <Dr_Sato> erhm.... it finds something but niot everything
[09:29] <Psy> i justr insutalled ubunto today for the first time. I tried to set up eth0 but it wont ping anything but itself. anyone have any ideas please?
[09:29] <Tom7e> geeksauce:  i think you might just have to uninstall linux-image-2.6.15-25-386 from synaptic but I'm not sure
[09:29] <TheMoebius> torpedo|dog: the menu
[09:29] <jwhayman> cdubya could you tell me how to register quickly so i can private message you?
[09:29] <newbie_> i enabled it in the gui
[09:29] <torpedo|dog> TheMoebius: to remove one, you can go to Applications > Accessories > Menu Editor, unless you don't have that installed yet
[09:29] <Dr_Sato> You have but never configered it with "drivers"
[09:30] <newbie_> i have a german version
[09:30] <newbie_> it's the first register card
[09:30] <TheMoebius> torpedo|dog: mmm i must have to install it
[09:30] <cdubya> jwhayman, /msg nickserv register <your-password>
[09:30] <torpedo|dog> TheMoebius: if you don't have it installed, just install 'alacarte', I think.
[09:30] <newbie_> where ethernet and modem connections are listed
[09:30] <torpedo|dog> Yeah, 'alacarte'.
[09:31] <Dr_Sato> newbie_: now I'm over asked in every way... I never ahd to plug a new nic in. and had to compile or whatever do stuff with a nic

[09:31] <ossie>         then
[09:31] <ossie>        $spacecounter = $disk1

[09:36] <torpedo|dog> If I'm not mistaken, it's in the repos.
[09:36] <cdubya> scifi, if you could get it into csv somehow, you could dump it into a mysql table using phpmyadmin and then query it all you wanted......:)
[09:36] <ossie> role up scripters , can someone help with my script http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17855
[09:36] <Centaur5> How can you have ubuntu never notify about certain updates?

[09:36] <SimzI> k torpedo|dog
[09:36] <ubuntu01> hello

[09:37] <kaot> in resolv.conf
[09:37] <scifi> cdubya/erUSUL: i see erUSUL mentioned he successfully imported it into gnumeric, so im gonna try that and then save out as .csv, then i'll need ur help with the sql side , if possible :)
[09:37] <ubuntu01> so,if is write in fstab nothing happens....i need any other command?
[09:37] <tedd> Can anyone help me? I'm trying to transfer files between my computer and my laptop using a crossover ethernet cable. I was told to set the static IP's the same. Can anyone help?
[09:37] <torpedo|dog> SimzI: is it all lowercase?
[09:37] <Psy> at the moment i put in nameserver 10.0.0.61?
[09:37] <ossie> im trying to iterate through the disks
[09:38] <torpedo|dog> ...install nvu
[09:38] <Tom7e> geeksauce: no, 15-26 is the latest
[09:38] <Psy> is that all i need?
[09:38] <kaot> Psy: yep
[09:38] <SimzI> ah it's already installed torpedo|dog
[09:38] <kaot> ossie: that "+i" line, are you referring to the variable there?
[09:38] <geeksauce> Tom7e, hmm... synaptic is telling me, as soon as i remove that package, that a new upgrade is available, and lists the one i just deleted
[09:38] <Sh4d0x> why why why
[09:39] <ubuntu01> anyone?
[09:39] <ossie> yes I want to add the value of the variable to the name of the variable disk
[09:39] <cdubya> scifi, np, just let me know
[09:39] <torpedo|dog> SimzI: :)
[09:39] <SimzI> thanks

[09:39] <Sh4d0x> can't I upgrade my breezy from cd to dapper dragon :(
[09:39] <Psy> do i need to reboot or log out and in after changing resolv.conf?
[09:39] <KC9JTW_Lars> is there an easy fix for Skype, where the audio is "in use" after your first call?
[09:39] <ossie> then next iteration disk = disk2
[09:39] <ossie> etc
[09:39] <KC9JTW_Lars> !skype

[09:40] <geeksauce> Tom7e, i don't want any beta kernels or anything along those lines
[09:40] <kaot> ossie: I don't see where $disk is being defined
[09:40] <ossie> i want the name of the variable to iterate so i can check 5 different vairable called disk 1 through to disk 5
[09:40] <kaot> ossie: i see "disk1, disk2" etc, but no "disk"
[09:40] <Ensiferum> any ideas why mounting a nfs share takes for ever?
[09:40] <Tom7e> geeksauce:  my automatic upgrade got 26 for me, so i assume it's not beta.
[09:40] <ossie> ahh
[09:40] <ossie> so i havent defined that variable
[09:40] <Rower|Magda> hope i didnt destroy the whole system now.. i apt-get --purge mysql-common :D
[09:40] <ossie> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17855
[09:40] <scifi> erUSUL: u here m8? need ur advice
[09:41] <kaot> ossie: that's what it seems like yeah.  plus i don't know if that's how you concatenate strings, there.

[09:41] <merkurie> hi, i'm using ubuntu desktop 6.06 and i'd like to change the default background all users get.. anyone know how, or maybe you could just point me to a config file or man page?
[09:41] <kaot> ossie: furthermore i dunno if you want to concatenate a string in a test
[09:41] <Psy> kaot, resolv.conf is set up but i still cant ping anything
[09:41] <kaot> Psy: can you ping by ip?
[09:41] <Psy> if it can ping itself then the nic is working right?
[09:41] <oz> sh4dox - try looking for altenate cd install

[09:42] <Sh4d0x> oz, i already tried that, gives me an error that looks like "no alternate command"
[09:42] <torpedo|dog> ryanakca: you want your terminal to have a smaller typesize?
[09:42] <ossie> ubuntu01, if you wanna mount a nfs share or something vi /etc/fstab
[09:43] <oz> sh4dox - did you download the cd ?
[09:43] <kaot> ossie: dunno off the top of my head, stand by i'll have to pull out Ye Handy Bash Ref
[09:43] <ossie> cool kaot
[09:43] <ossie> hey oz im the really ossie around here and i think you would do well to remeber that, there aint enough
[09:43] <ossie> room in the town for the 2 of us :)
[09:43] <Sh4d0x> oz, i shipped it, it arrived today (on my birthday yeah!!)
[09:44] <oz> ossie - I am sorry, but I not ossie
[09:44] <oz> I am oz
[09:44] <zomorf> me too
[09:44] <tedd> Can anyone help me? I'm trying to transfer files between my computer and my laptop using a crossover ethernet cable. I was told to set the static IP's the same. Can anyone help?
[09:44] <ubuntu01> ossie my only problem is if i write in fstab nothing happens
[09:44] <ossie> oh ok , ill let u off
[09:44] <oz> happy birthday
[09:44] <Sh4d0x> oz,  thnx :-D
[09:44] <ossie> have you sudo vi /etc/fstab
[09:44] <ryanakca> torpedo|dog: yes
[09:44] <oz> did you get the alternate cd install ? or live cd ?
[09:45] <ubuntu01> yes....but if i write in simple just "fstab" is anything happens or i need to write in this vi etc/fstab
[09:45] <ubuntu01> ?
[09:45] <kaot> ossie: also one thing i noticed is that you initialize $i but never increment it
[09:45] <ossie> kaot can you see what im doing in my script
[09:45] <ryanakca> Tedd: both of theme running linux?
[09:45] <ossie> yes im not sure how to increment a viariable in bash
[09:45] <ossie> my background is VB so im struggling with bash
[09:45] <ubuntu01> kk thx
[09:45] <oz> sh4dox - what cd did you get in your pack ?
[09:45] <tedd> ryanakca, Ubuntu.
[09:46] <Sh4d0x> oz, there is only 1 cd in the package
[09:46] <Psy> kaot, if the computer can ping itself, 10.0.0.171 and not the gateway, 10.0.0.61 then it means the nic is working right?
[09:46] <Sh4d0x> oz, it contains both live and full install
[09:46] <kaot> ossie: i = $i + 1
[09:46] <ossie> cheers
[09:46] <oz> ok, so you won't be able to upgrade with I think
[09:46] <Sh4d0x> oz, not? :o
[09:47] <kaot> Psy: it means the kernel sees the interface, it doesn't mean something isn't physically wrong with the nic
[09:47] <oz> why don't u use apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[09:47] <ryanakca> tedd: tedd... I think you are looking for the protocol "fish:/"
[09:47] <kaot> Psy: if you can't ping the gateway check the usual suspects (verify link lights, check cabling, blah blah)
[09:47] <Sh4d0x> oz, it is the original cd ... i mean ... that's why it's made for ...
[09:47] <Psy> ok thats what i meant the kernel see's it, it worked fine under xp so im asusming its still working
[09:47] <tedd> ryanakca, ?
[09:47] <torpedo|dog> ryanakca: if you're just talking about GNOME terminal, open it up and go to Edit > Current Profile, uncheck "Use the System Terminal Font", and select your own font below.
[09:47] <Psy> i did a command and it returned eth0: link not ready?
[09:47] <Sh4d0x> oz, i already gave that a try, won't work neither

[09:52] <Sh4d0x> oz, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17856  (i hope you understand some dutch :-$)
[09:52] <ossie> i could do it sloppily by doing 5 different if disk1 -gt disk2 then bestdisk=disk2 else bestdisk = disk1
[09:52] <ossie> but that is sooo crap
[09:52] <kaot> ossie: man.  this book sucks for bash.  my two good books are out on "loan".
[09:52] <ossie> heheheh , ok kaot
[09:52] <kaot> and by loan i mean i loaned them out about 5 years ago
[09:52] <kaot> so apparently i gave them away :\
[09:52] <oz> sh4dox - I got only Klaar=clear
[09:52] <cdubya> scifi, ouch
[09:53] <cdubya> so you can't get it to csv?
[09:53] <oz> I am not that strong with DUTCH :-)
[09:53] <abo> can anyone help me with a GRUB problem?
[09:53] <nilsl> I try to stop proftpd, with sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd stop ... But when I do that I get this: ProFTPd is started from inetd. What is the problem?
[09:53] <Sh4d0x> oz, it sais "the next packages are left behind ... "
[09:53] <kaot> oh hey here we go.... in a nutshell even...
[09:53] <oz> oh, well
[09:53] <Sh4d0x> oz, the 2 packages aren't even installed
[09:53] <oz> why not making a clean install ?
[09:54] <steveire> Who knows enough about users in ubuntu to answer this? >>> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214356
[09:54] <scifi> cdubya, it seems not
[09:54] <Sh4d0x> oz, euhm i guess i need to format the entire partion?
[09:54] <oz> from my experience it's sometimes faster
[09:54] <oz> pastebin this command fdisk -l
[09:54] <erUSUL> scifi: sorry... i was having dinner...
[09:54] <Sh4d0x> oz, i know there is a possibility to upgrade using the cd
[09:54] <mikere> Welp, after that latest kernel update, it looks like it's time to pare down my grub configuration.  That boot menu's looking awful long now, lol
[09:54] <Sh4d0x> oz, ok hold on
[09:54] <oz> I want to see your partition table
[09:55] <oz> abo - what is the problem with grub ?
[09:55] <Sh4d0x> oz, nothing shows up
[09:55] <Ayabara> I have forwarded some ports in my router, but sometimes my girl "steals" my ip adress. how can I configure a static ip-address? do I need to do something both in the router and in ubuntu?
[09:55] <oz> type sudo fdisk -l
[09:55] <scifi> erUSUL: ur back! howd u manage to get it into gnumeric? i dont know what import options i need to choose. it choose imports it , but not into columns
[09:55] <ossie> does anyone know where this is a bash channel???
[09:55] <Sh4d0x> oz,  ok, hold on again
[09:55] <scifi> -choose
[09:56] <jme> Hey, who wants to help me with wireless support: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214048
[09:56] <oz> abo - what grub erro are you getting ?
[09:56] <cdubya> scifi, so did you get it to import correctly into gnumeric
[09:56] <scifi> cdubya: no i need erUSUL's advice on that
[09:56] <kaot> ossie: oh hey, by the way, $dwithfreespace never gets defined either
[09:56] <kaot> ossie: there's almost more things wrong than right here
[09:56] <Sh4d0x> oz, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17857
[09:57] <mikere> Ayabara: there are a couple ways to do it depending on your current router config.  PRobably you can just set a static IP address on your computer and tell your router not to use that range of IP for dhcp
[09:57] <dylan_> Is it true that Ubuntu is non-free?  I'm reading a thread on the Ubuntu Forums...
[09:57] <Psy> kaot, its now showing the connection as disconnected? its definitly plugged in etc...
[09:57] <kaot> Psy: where's it showing that?
[09:57] <Lt-Elmo> ubuntu is free
[09:57] <kaot> Psy: what kind of nic?
[09:57] <tedd> hey.
[09:57] <tedd> I'm back.
[09:57] <erUSUL> scifi: well the import is not that grate. i gunzip the file, rename it to rating.list.cvs, and then open it as csv file with encoding accidental iso-8859-1
[09:57] <Ayabara> mikere: sounds like a plan. I have seen the option in the router.
[09:57] <Psy> when i double click the network icon by the clock.
[09:57] <ossie> kaot its nearly working, i can make it work with 1 disk
[09:58] <tuxtux> wireless card work on kubuntu64?
[09:58] <oz> ok, so you don't have a separate home folder
[09:58] <oz> just a min
[09:58] <scifi> erUSUL: ok will try it
[09:58] <kaot> ossie: yeah?  where does $dwithfreespace get defined?  i'd think that would bail with a syntax error on mv
[09:58] <mikere> Ayabara: just make sure you are using the correct subnet for the static ip - should be same subnet as used for dhcp but out of the dhcp reserved range (the range you tell the router to use for dhcp)
[09:58] <cdubya> scifi, you could open it in gnumeric and reformat it yourself.....get rid of any columns you don't need....then name them with headers and save the file as a csv....
[09:58] <Ayabara> mikere: how do I set the static ip on my laptop?
[09:58] <cdubya> I'd guess anyway
[09:59] <tuxtux> laptop  and wireless card work on kubuntu64?
[09:59] <ossie> i got a simpler version that works by check 1 disk
[09:59] <mikere> Ayabara: one sec
[09:59] <Sh4d0x> oz, no else it would take another partion
[09:59] <yakk> hey, so I've got a dapper system that's the result of many uprgrades - is there a good way to regenerate a xorg.conf?
[09:59] <Sh4d0x> *partition
[09:59] <ossie> if i could find out how to iterate trough the disks then id be sorted
[09:59] <mikere> Ayabara: System menu, System Administration, Networking
[09:59] <oz> there is nothing wrong with having a separate /home partition
[09:59] <nilsl> I try to stop proftpd, with sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd stop ... But when I do that I get this: ProFTPd is started from inetd. What is the problem?
[09:59] <oz> it is even better !
[09:59] <Psy> kaot, when i double click the network icon by the clock. it says status disconnected: and no packets sent or recieved.
[10:00] <mikere> Ayabara: after that it depends on if you are on wireless or wired (wired shows up as Ethernet connection)
[10:00] <Ayabara> mikere: thanks. think I am on top of it now :-)
[10:00] <mikere> Ayabara: cool =)
[10:00] <rebelfallen> I installed Dapper on my external USB hard drive. on the machine I installed it on, I had another distro on the internal HD. If I remove the external, and plug the USB into a machine with Windows XP on the internal, how can I use my Dapper? When I change bios to boot the USB drive, Dapper fails and loads busybox command line only
[10:00] <Sh4d0x> oz, indeed it is, but i don't use ubuntu that much, so another partition is in my eyes a waste
[10:01] <eCokeNCod> hmmm, i need a version of soulseek for the console
[10:01] <oz> you can just split your own linux partition, but leave that aside now
[10:01] <Ayabara> mikere: almost at least :-). what should I write in "gateway address"?
[10:01] <eCokeNCod> can i chat in soulseek rooms using another program ?
[10:01] <kaot> Psy: there are a couple of reasons that could be, depending on how the network manager determines interface state, which I dunno.  open a terminal and ifconfig eth1
[10:01] <Ensiferum> why the fuck my fonts are HUGE?
[10:01] <Ensiferum> cant i change them somehow :/
[10:01] <scifi> erUSUL/cdubya: trying it, but all the colums get mixed up, its a nightmare
[10:01] <rebelfallen> Ensiferum: language :\
[10:02] <oz> sh4dox - did you read this ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades
[10:02] <mikere> rebelfallen: hmm.... depends.  Could possilbly change the bios to boot from usb, but you'd need a boot loader on the usb drive to do that - other options are boot disk or boot loader on the xp box hdd
[10:02] <Ensiferum> rebelfallen: wot? :|
[10:02] <oz> I think this solves your problem
[10:02] <mikere> Ayabara: that is most likely the IP address of your router
[10:02] <mikere> Ayabara: 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or something along those lines
[10:02] <Ayabara> mikere: of course.... thanks again.
[10:02] <Psy> ok i did that kaot. eth0 is the one configured, or im trying to configure, i brought up both ifconfigs though...
[10:03] <oz> and I am still stuck with mine - help needed with D-link dwl650+ ? any1 please
[10:03] <Sh4d0x> oz, i'll have a look, in mean while i was reading wiki pages looking for some information, hold on i'll take a look
[10:03] <rebelfallen> mikere: I have grub on the USB drive. What can I use on the XP machine for a boot loader?
[10:03] <rebelfallen> mikere: grub DOES load, but when I select the right kernel it just shoots to busybox.
[10:03] <mikere> rebelfallen: if you have grub on the usb drive you can probably just set the bios on that comp to boot from USB
[10:04] <oz> sh4dox, that is the link you should read
[10:04] <rebelfallen> mikere: I have done that, the bios lets me. When I boot though, it basically gives me mounting errors. I don't know why.
[10:04] <kaot> Psy: well now you've got me confused.  what do you mean by both ifconfigs?  eth0 + eth1?  eth0 + lo?
[10:05] <kaot> Psy: plus i thought you were working on eth1 for some reason.  am i screwed up?
[10:05] <mikere> rebelfallen: could be the /dev for the USB differs from one machine to the other.
[10:05] <Sh4d0x> oz, thanks i'll give it a try, and let you know if it worked
[10:05] <Psy> i did both but it didnt display much for eth1, if i do just ifconfig it displays eth0 and lo
[10:05] <mikere> rebelfallen: may need to add entries to your grub for both computer configurations
[10:05] <cached> what's the command for "burning" a .img file to a floppy again?
[10:05] <rebelfallen> mikere: I think that's what it was. How can I change that?
[10:05] <rebelfallen> Oh really? How can I do that?
[10:05] <oz> you'll have to download a whole cd - I don't think I'll be here to know :-)
[10:06] <kaot> hey ossie you still there?
[10:06] <mikere> rebelfallen: one sec
[10:06] <kaot> Psy: you got 2 nics? or just the one?
[10:06] <Psy> just 1
[10:06] <kaot> right then.  so it shows eth0, with the IP and all that?
[10:07] <Psy> yep
[10:07] <kaot> did you get that "not ready" error when you tried to ping?  what error did you actually get/
[10:07] <mikere> rebelfallen: it will have something to do with /boot/grub/menu.lst and /boot/grub/device_map - possibly only the former
[10:07] <kaot> ?
[10:07] <Ademan> what's the "best" java IDE? i used netbeans on windows... is there anything better for linux? or is netbeans my best bet? (its also not in the repos)
[10:07] <mikere> rebelfallen: the tough thing will be determining what device name is being used on the XP box for the USB hdd
[10:08] <rebelfallen> Ah just the actual load list itself. I was looking at: http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2006/05/08/dual-boot-laptop.html?page=3
[10:08] <Sh4d0x> oz, i had the cd shipped, isn't that the same as the iso you can download?
[10:08] <rebelfallen> mikere: EXACTLY. heh that is the biggest issue. I don't know of a tool that will let me see that
[10:08] <Psy> its not even giving an error now :S
[10:08] <Psy> just stays blank
[10:08] <cached> what's the command for "burning" a .img file to a floppy again?
[10:08] <mikere> rebelfallen: could try a live CD and finding out what it id's the usb drive as
[10:08] <rebelfallen> awwww.
[10:08] <oz> sh4dox
[10:09] <rebelfallen> so much work
[10:09] <Psy> in console it gives me this@
[10:09] <kaot> Psy: well heck.  no "ping timeout"  no "network unreachable"   nothing?
[10:09] <oz> the cd u got is not the alternate cd.
[10:09] <kaot> Psy: pastebin that
[10:09] <kaot> if it's big
[10:09] <oz> you have to download it and upgrade from it
[10:09] <davegoodson> Hey, why does Gaim crash when I log onto my MSN account?

[10:10] <fowlduck> http://img505.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fubuntuwallpaper7zf.png
[10:10] <Sh4d0x> oz, the links sais " Order the (3) CDs to be posted out to you via [WWW]  Shippit, and use the "Alternate Install CD"." and that's what i did
[10:10] <rebelfallen> Thanks mikere :)
[10:10] <mikere> rebelfallen: the good news is once you've figured it out, you'll be the local guru on the topic
[10:10] <cached> did anyone get their dapper shipit cds yet?
[10:10] <oz> so you have or u don't have the alternate, erlier you said you got the live cd
[10:11] <kaot> Psy: ah ok.  you double check your physical connection?  make sure you've got link lights and that they're flickering on the hub/switch/whatever when you try to ping?
[10:11] <Otacon22> anyone know what was the name of the progam for do clustering ?

[10:11] <bbrazil> Otacon22: heartbeat?
[10:11] <oz> Sh4dox: what cd's did you get ?
[10:11] <bernd> join #ubuntu.de
[10:11] <Sh4d0x> oz, no i said, a cd package (as i received / and orderd 5 of them) contains only 1 single disc
[10:12] <kaot> hm.
[10:12] <kaot> lol
[10:12] <davegoodson> Hey, why does Gaim crash when I log onto my MSN account?
[10:12] <cdubya> scifi, you have any luck?
[10:12] <Sh4d0x> oz, it seems (to me) that this 1 cd contains both live cd and alternate cd (could be that i'm mistaken)
[10:12] <oz> so we're back to square 1
[10:12] <oz> I can't help you - you have to use the alternate cd
[10:12] <scifi> cdubya, still trying, also looking for programs that may convert it for me
[10:12] <oz> sh4dox :-)
[10:12] <cdubya> heh
[10:13] <Psy-Blade> sorry, router died
[10:13] <Psy-Blade> from 10.0.0.171(which is the client) icmp_seq=2 dest host unreachable. is what console gives me kaot
[10:13] <acerunus> hello people
[10:13] <torpedo|dog> Is there any way that you can remove the old kernel versions on your system? They take up a lot of HDD space...and I don't use them.
[10:13] <Sh4d0x> oz, i guess it's running, cd drive is making a strange noise :-D (as long as it don't start smelling everything will be fine)
[10:14] <oz> sh4dox, what are you try to do now?
[10:14] <Sh4d0x> oz, i did what the wiki said (link you gave me)
[10:14] <davegoodson> Hey, why does Gaim crash when I log onto my MSN account?? :(
[10:15] <oz> but it won't work, if you don't have the right cd - the files are ordered differntly
[10:15] <Sh4d0x> oz, the terminal is upgrading a lot of files (as long as it isn't downloading -- i'm on smallband)
[10:15] <interfear> could someone recommend a free dvd-r/cd-rw burning util for making music as well as dvds
[10:15] <rebelfallen> davegoodson: update gaim with package manager. if its already up to date, remove, and reinstall. easiest way to bugfix.
[10:15] <rebelfallen> save logs tho if you are logging :)
[10:15] <rebelfallen> Or check for special chars in username / alias
[10:15] <scifi> cdubya, would conversion to a RTF file be better ?
[10:15] <Jeeves__> I am having real problems with filenames on a mounted drive
[10:15] <Otacon22> bbrazil, I don't know if it is right; I need a program that can become me able to use the power of some cpu in one... a clustering...
[10:15] <kaot> Psy-Blade: yeah like i said, double check your link lights, let ping run and check to see if you're getting activity flickers on the nic and on the switch
[10:16] <bbrazil> Otacon22: could you rephrase that?
[10:16] <seth_arch> hey
[10:16] <Ensiferum> what was the name of the package with essential development stuff?
[10:16] <Flannel> build-essential
[10:16] <seth_arch> Having a apt-get update issue as you can see here http://paste.distrotalk.net/paste.php?id=48
[10:16] <davegoodson> rebelfallen: where is the package manager?
[10:16] <Ensiferum> Flannel: aah, i though it was development-essential or something :p
[10:17] <Sh4d0x> oz, i know, listen, earlier if i orderd a cd it contained 2 cd, an alternate and a live cd ... now i orderd 5 dapper dragon cd's and each cd contains only 1 disc dunno if it is live or alternate
[10:17] <Psy-Blade> yeh the activty light is flashing
[10:17] <Jeeves__> I have copyed a load of stuff from a windows machine and when i mount the drive in ubuntu the file names have changed to part of the name then ~,
[10:17] <Ensiferum> Flannel: thanks
[10:17] <torpedo|dog> Sh4d0x: they each have both of them on it.
[10:17] <Jeeves__> is there any way to get the original file names back ?
[10:17] <torpedo|dog> Sh4d0x: and it's dapper drake (which is "duck") ;)
[10:17] <oz> sh4dox - if you insert it and it boots up , than it is live
[10:17] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: it's live.  Because now the live is the install.  before it contained a live, and an installer.
[10:17] <Zoolie> hi,i just downloaded kubuntu-desktop package for my ubuntu and the boot splash screen was modded to kubuntu version but i want to use the old ubuntu version,any help?
[10:17] <kaot> Psy-Blade: in terminal, do sudo arp -a | grep (your gateway ip)
[10:17] <Otacon22> bbrazil, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cluster
[10:18] <Ensiferum> Zoolie: theres a loging config tool somewhere
[10:18] <scifi> cdubya, im gonna try working on it windows. i'll be back if i get any where, ok ?
[10:18] <javiolo> Im usign fluxbox in the menu I created one for shutdown if it type gskudo shutdown -h now doesnt work, any idea ?

[10:18] <Zoolie> Ensiferum where? :)
[10:18] <Flannel> Jeeves__: is it a FAT drive?
[10:18] <Jeeves__> its a ms dos formated drive
[10:18] <torpedo|dog> Sh4d0x: I believe so.
[10:19] <torpedo|dog> of course, it's always always worth it to make a backup.
[10:19] <torpedo|dog> Always.
[10:19] <interfear> I want to install XMMS, but it also installs gtk1.2, dont i want to be using gtk 2+ ?

[10:19] <Psy-Blade> yeh it shows mac
[10:20] <torpedo|dog> Sh4d0x: oh, my mistake apparently
[10:20] <Jeeves__> flannel when i looked at the files from the windows machine they had the original names

[10:21] <kaot> Psy-Blade: not used to seeing 10. ips on consumer gateway appliances.
[10:22] <Psy-Blade> ah ok
[10:22] <oz> if it work for you than fine, even the wiki says you need to download the alternate
[10:22] <acerunus> mikere, i know that it shoudl automount but i dont use gnome anymore i use E17 and i need to mount it in terminal how do i do that
[10:22] <Sh4d0x> oz, but the 1 disc now contains both, alternate and live
[10:23] <TokenBad> anyone know where xchat has its logs?
[10:23] <davegoodson> ive just reinstalled GAIM and it STILL does it!!!!!!!
[10:23] <Sh4d0x> oz, there are nolonger 2 disc's
[10:23] <mikere> acerunus: sorry, but don't know exactly what you'd have to type - man mount might be instructive
[10:23] <Ayabara> which app in ubuntu do you prefer to rip flac?
[10:23] <kaot> Psy-Blade: anyhoo.  so your physical connection seems fine, but your pings are failing.  wtf is that all about.
[10:23] <oz> Sh4dox, No, It contains the live and install
[10:23] <Jeeves__> sorry flannel: does this mean I can't get them back?
[10:23] <Jowi> TokenBad: ~/.xchat2/xchatlogs
[10:23] <kaot> Psy-Blade: 2 things:  1. what's your router?  and 2. try to ping  64.233.161.99
[10:24] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: no, no.  It contains the LiveCD, which is an installer.  It does not contain the alternate CD
[10:24] <Psy-Blade> no reply
[10:24] <XiXaQ> how do I make apache send documents in ISO-8850-1 instead of UTF-8?
[10:24] <gorski> no sound in flash, help?
[10:24] <K^Holtz> Can someone help me get frostwire working?
[10:24] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, o_O
[10:24] <Psy-Blade> it wont ping my other desktop either though?
[10:24] <Sh4d0x> oz, my mistake
[10:24] <oz> sh4dox - check this http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/6.06/
[10:24] <Psy-Blade> which is not through the router as they share a switch
[10:24] <Ayabara> I want to pimp my desktop a little bit with some cool themes or something. anyone got some keywords to get me started?
[10:25] <oz> well, I am off I did my help for today,
[10:25] <blue_flashlight> K^Holtz: did you check out this? --> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper#How_to_install_P2P_Gnutella_Client_.28FrostWire.29
[10:25] <Sh4d0x> oz, thnx cya later
[10:25] <Whil> HIya
[10:25] <Flannel> Jeeves__: from what it sounds like, yeah.  You copied them as DOS 8.3, You might be able to re-copy them as long filenames, but you'd need the originals for that and stuff.  format the drive as vfat, that supports long filenames
[10:25] <K^Holtz> i cant get frostwire working right.. i have downloaded songs before on it, but now when i click the download button, nothhing happens.. it wont go into the download queue box or anything
[10:25] <oz> Stuck with my ##Q@ blody pcmacia card....
[10:25] <oz> bye all
[10:25] <K^Holtz> blue_flashlight: its not a matter of installation
[10:25] <kaot> Psy-Blade: I don't get you.  what do you mean it's not through the router?  what shares a switch?  you have box -> switch -> router?
[10:25] <Flannel> Jeeves__: or, maybe you just need to MOUNT the drive as vfat.  You could try that
[10:25] <oz> Sh4dox - happy birthday
[10:25] <davegoodson> My GAIM keeps crashing with no error as soon as it has finished singing on to my account. I've just reinstalled it and it STILL crashes... Can any one help? I installed ubuntu on a laptop before and it did the same, at the moment i am running ubuntu in VMware..
[10:25] <Meatwad> Ayabara: gnome-look.org
[10:26] <Psy-Blade> well some computers are direct to the router, some go though this switch
[10:26] <davegoodson> gah MSN account...
[10:26] <mikere> acerunus: have you looked in /media after plugging it in to see if it's auto mounted?
[10:26] <Psy-Blade> the ubuntu computer and the one im using now are off the switch and the switch connects to the router
[10:26] <unstablesob> i need help getting vmware-player to work after the kernel upgrade, I installed vmware-player-kernel-source, but I need to know where to go from here.
[10:26] <Jeeves__> thanks, thats not at all depressing!
[10:26] <maxer> anyone know a way to copy and paste over mutiple machines? or have a simple messenger running over different machines and platforums?
[10:26] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: if the both computers's got the same subnetmask and have ip-addresses in the same range it should work to ping them. are they both set up ok? no ip conflicts (in router or otherwise)?
[10:26] <interfear> Where do I get new themes for ubuntu?
[10:26] <Psy-Blade> nope
[10:26] <linuxmaier> Is there any World of Warcraft players here who use the FlagRSP mod?
[10:26] <MarcN> maxer: have you tried clusterssh?
[10:27] <seth_arch> Having a apt-get update issue as you can see here http://paste.distrotalk.net/paste.php?id=48
[10:27] <Ayabara> Meatwad: thanks
[10:27] <seth_arch> how do I fix it?
[10:27] <maxer> clusterssh?
[10:27] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, so now a shippit cd contains only a live cd?
[10:27] <kaot> Psy-Blade: hey yeah furthermore can you ping the computer you're on from the ubuntu box? how about vice versa?
[10:27] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: so try to use other ports in the switch. maybe one of them are faulty...
[10:27] <linuxmaier> I trying to figure out how to enable my FlagRSP mod on World of Warcraft
[10:27] <mikere> Ayabara: any luck with grub yet?
[10:27] <Psy-Blade> Jowi, already did
[10:27] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: apparently, yes.  But you can install from that liveCD.
[10:27] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: good man :)
[10:27] <FunnyLookinHat> linuxboy, sounds like you should go ask in #cedega or #wine   ?
[10:27] <blue_flashlight> K^Holtz: is anything reported in logs, stderr, or stdout?
[10:28] <FunnyLookinHat> wooooops
[10:28] <FunnyLookinHat> linuxmaier, sounds like you should go ask in #cedega or #wine   ?
[10:28] <Ayabara> mikere: grub? nooooo, but I have a static ip address :-)
[10:28] <Psy-Blade> kaot, no it cant ping others and others cant ping it either
[10:28] <linuxmaier> thanks. i didnt know those forums existed
[10:28] <MarcN> maxer: run   clusterssh host1 host2 host3 host4 and when you type in one window, it gets typed to all windows.  Same with cut-n-paste.  Nice if you have a bunch of identicial systems that need work.
[10:28] <K^Holtz> blue_flashlight:  i dunno how to get to those log files
[10:28] <Psy-Blade> i might reinstall
[10:28] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, but an upgrade isn't possible with such a disc? hmm that's s*cks hard
[10:28] <kaot> Psy-Blade: you didn't mess with any firewall configs did you?
[10:28] <mikere> Ayabara: oops, getting people mixed up =)
[10:28] <Psy-Blade> nope
[10:28] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: maybe you should paste both computers ifconfig to pastebin (if you haven't already)
[10:28] <Ayabara> mikere: :-)
[10:28] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: I don't know why an upgrade wouldn't be possible.
[10:28] <maxer> MarcN: im running a windows machine as well and it doesnt list windows as a supported platform
[10:29] <Psy-Blade> only thing i did was go into network config and give it an ip, subnet and gateway
[10:29] <Ayabara> mikere: you shouldn't help so many people ;-)
[10:29] <mikere> rebelfallen: any luck with grub so far?  I found an interesting post on the topic: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80811
[10:29] <blue_flashlight> K^Holtz: is there a console tab, by any chance? (I'm not looking at it right now, so I can't be certain) also, what does it output if you run frostwire from the terminal?
[10:29] <mikere> Ayabara: it's like eating popcorn - once you start you can't stop
[10:29] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, well i've been trying all day by now and it just won't work -_-
[10:29] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: manually? they don't get the ip from the router via dhcp?
[10:29] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: did you add the CD as a repository, etc?
[10:29] <rebelfallen> mikere: Nothing. I am trying to look at all options first
[10:29] <Psy-Blade> nope
[10:29] <Ayabara> mikere: hehe
[10:29] <MarcN> maxer: nope.  it uses X and ssh.   Look at synergy -- lets you connect a windows keyboard/mouse/video to a linux keyboard/mouse/video
[10:29] <Psy-Blade> static ip's
[10:30] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, yes, and all the others i commented
[10:30] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: ...and is the routers dhcp server turned off?
[10:30] <MarcN> maxer: sorta poor-man's-multihead-system
[10:30] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, just like it is said in the wikipages
[10:30] <Psy-Blade> yep
[10:30] <goubuntu> !nvidia
[10:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:30] <Psy-Blade> router works fine for this machine.
[10:30] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: and, what problems did you run into?
[10:31] <zybrid> apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx <- for ati
[10:31] <K^Holtz> blue_flashlight: theres not console tab.. im not sure, but im being forced to go somewhere right now.. thanks for your help, but hopefully i can continue this later
[10:31] <blue_flashlight> K^Holtz: no problem, good luck
[10:31] <zybrid> and replace ati with fglrx in xorg.com
[10:31] <zybrid> xorg.conf :)
[10:31] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, it seems to install only 2 (new) packages and they fail by installing
[10:31] <Flannel> Sh4d0x: oh, nevermind.  I see the line in the wiki.  Hmm, that... issue should be brought up.  shipit should be sending alternate CDs as well, methinks.  As many people use them to upgrade.
[10:31] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: i would like to see the ifconfigs. seems like you have set up everything according to standard
[10:32] <Sh4d0x> Flannel, yes indeed
[10:32] <Psy-Blade> the only way i could get them to this pc is to copy them by hand
[10:32] <Jowi> Psy-Blade: make you wish floppies were still around :)
[10:32] <Psy-Blade> i guess im nto oding anything i could type it up
[10:32] <Psy-Blade> haha yeh
[10:33] <Psy-Blade> ok well back in a minute then
[10:34] <theapoc> Question: When I do "fdisk -l" it doesn't return anything, why is this?

[10:36] <kaot> Jowi: btw, i don't get any output if i do it as user either.

[10:41] <gavagai> i can always turn wondershaper off when needed but i don't get why it has this problem, why does it care if it is local or internet traffic?

[10:43] <Whil> Okay, I can use some help with Vmware networking if someone knows about this stuff.
[10:43] <eobanb> maxer, does this look like #slackware to you
[10:44] <blue_flashlight> slowz3r: you probably want the notification icon plugin to be active
[10:44] <MehAdult> goubuntu: On this computer I found it easier to download the modules from NVidia's site
[10:44] <blue_flashlight> maxer: it could be anything
[10:44] <crazy_penguin> night to all! :)
[10:44] <goubuntu> MehAdult: did you not use synaptic?
[10:44] <slowz3r> blue_flashlight, it is enabled

[10:45] <goubuntu> hmm ok
[10:45] <goubuntu> do you have geforce fx 5500 ?

[10:45] <MehAdult> goubuntu: Yup
[10:45] <goubuntu> wow
[10:45] <blue_flashlight> slowz3r: do other notification area icons show up? maybe your panel needs a place for it to be placed..
[10:46] <theapoc> MehAdult: I did and it gave me an error. Here is what I found in dmesg | tail: http://rafb.net/paste/results/KBjZzB24.html

[10:47] <goubuntu> MehAdult: did u just run the script then use the automatic config utility ?
[10:47] <blue_flashlight> slowz3r: if it's reproducible, try running gaim with the debug window open
[10:47] <theapoc> MehAdult: Neg, it just cycles back to the bootloader w/o telling me anything.
[10:47] <MehAdult> goubuntu: I just downloaded the NVidia binary, made sure the kernel headers were installed.

[10:52] <Ensiferum> burnt the image on a cd and then installed
[10:52] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, ooh then try it from the ubuntu website again and maybe you can get a better copy and less errors
[10:53] <Ensiferum> hahaha what a load of bs
[10:53] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, haha i have ano clue. if you this is bs then dont do it. but its just a suggestion. what i would do. or go back to whatever you were using if its not worth the time
[10:53] <MehAdult> theapoc: Ouch :(
[10:54] <ketetha_> ill be right back guys.
[10:54] <Ensiferum> ketetha_: right, yeah its good for ubuntu to have a broken installation right off the bat
[10:54] <gavagai> I set up sharing for a folder in ubuntu.  Windows sees the computer but won't accept any username/password.  What do I do?  I'm using a valid ubuntu user/pass
[10:54] <Ensiferum> and off the cd
[10:54] <MehAdult> theapoc: Your best bet is to try reinstalling the bootloader and hoping for the best, but you may have problems.
[10:54] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, if you wnat my suggestion then i can get you the link. que?

[10:55] <komozo> hi
[10:55] <kbukhari> *
[10:55] <ketetha_> kbukhari, , stop
[10:55] <ketetha_> komozo, hi
[10:55] <ketetha_> rebelfallen, thanks! my friend needed that
[10:55] <Ensiferum> ketetha_: theres nothing wrong with the burn process
[10:55] <pez_> Hi fellow ubuntu'ers. I have just installed dapper drake from the free cd i got through the post. i have downloaded 129 updates from the version provided from the cd
[10:55] <kbukhari> wht fuck
[10:56] <Ensiferum> but there is something wrogn with this distribution
[10:56] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, i give up. i actually dont know im just SUGGESTING so whatever. ask someone else then. sorry and i hope your problem works out
[10:56] <MehAdult> Ensiferum: Have you made sure your hardware is stable enough?
[10:56] <luxibook> Is this a place to ask a minor question about configuring network settings for a new Ubuntu install?
[10:56] <ketetha_> MehAdult, good luck.
[10:56] <ketetha_> luxibook, yep.
[10:56] <pez_> what i have noticed is that there is dodgy text in interface... for example, when i inset a dvd, the icon appears with a square box at the end of the file name
[10:57] <rebelfallen> No worries. I LOVE fasterfox. Makes my life peachy
[10:57] <ketetha_> brb
[10:57] <luxibook> I just need to understand why the live CD auto configures my internet correctly while my normal install doesn't--any suggestions??
[10:57] <theapoc> MehAdult: Heh, fdisk wasn't the only thing I didn't have permission to do. I can't seem to do anything w/o root privs. Weird....
[10:58] <pez_> also, the carriage return icon appears in the system monitor applet
[10:58] <scifi> anyone know how to import .csv files into a database ?
[10:58] <MehAdult> theapoc: Oh cool beans. Try mounting as root?
[10:58] <Ensiferum> MehAdult: well its not 15 years ago, just few years. but its not a hw problem.
[10:58] <Ensiferum> its probably again a bug in the scsi driver implementation for sata disks
[10:58] <Ensiferum> its been a problem before
[10:58] <Ensiferum> had a problem with a specifi chipset sata driver taking some port ranges that were reserved for cd-rom
[10:58] <Ensiferum> that bug was actually in sarge
[10:58] <Ensiferum> back in wharty
[10:58] <pez_> is there anyway of removing these odd characters in gnome?
[10:58] <oz> does anybody know what is "sit0" when running iwconfig ?
[10:59] <komozo> hi i need help on how to make an ubuntu mirror under a debian
[10:59] <theapoc> MehAdult: No, I mean I can't do other commands without being in root. :-[
[10:59] <MehAdult> Ensiferum: Oh. Well I dunno about SCSI
[10:59] <yggwork> hello, i know this is very unlinux of me but is there some sort of wysiwyg web site editor for ubuntu
[10:59] <gavagai> I am using samba sharing but can't access my ubuntu box.  It won't accept any username/pass.  What do i do?
[10:59] <MehAdult> theapoc: Ok something is weird with your system lol
[11:00] <theapoc> MehAdult: Apparently haha. This just started within the last reboot
[11:00] <Seveas> yggwork, nvu
[11:00] <airjump> hello
[11:00] <Seveas> hi airjump
[11:00] <airjump> hi

[11:00] <Prozac> hola, airjump
[11:00] <yggwork> seveas is it any good ? i mean even worth messing with ?
[11:00] <MehAdult> theapoc: It might be a failing HD. I just thought of that.
[11:00] <ultramancool> I'm having problems with my keyboard  and Xorg
[11:01] <ketetha_> back
[11:01] <Seveas> yggwork, never used it. I use vim for webpages - but I've heard that it's at least half decent
[11:01] <ultramancool> It was working yesterday, and it works on live cds and my win2k
[11:01] <MehAdult> Pretty common
[11:01] <theapoc> MehAdult: Hmm, sounds plausable, but it's only about a year old. Maxtor Dimondmax9 160gb.
[11:01] <MehAdult> Doesn't matter.
[11:01] <ultramancool> The only change I made was installing some UML init scripts
[11:01] <willnorris> I have a question regarding dependencies with the various java packages in Ubuntu.  anyone feel qualified to answer?

[11:02] <willnorris> will do
[11:02] <Seveas> MehAdult, heh

[11:03] <pez_> Seveas, I have a bug where i updated the system to current packages and now there is weird text characters appearing.
[11:03] <ultramancool> It just doesn't type now, I've got like 3 seconds, then it just will either a) repeat the last key or b) do nothing
[11:03] <Seveas> pez_, post a screenshot on the pastebin
[11:03] <Ensiferum> lsmod | grep piix

[11:04] <ketetha_> ultramancool, keyboard problems? i have no clue here lets ask ubotu

[11:05] <ultramancool> Seveas: Sorry, I just didn't want to get flamed with !anyone
[11:05] <pluggo> Hey... quick question... how do I make the default sound card (System->Preferences->Sound dialog) save? It resets to my webcam every time X-windows restarts
[11:05] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[11:05] <willnorris> i'm curious about the fact that libservlet2.4-java depends on "java-runtime" whereas libservlet2.3-java depends on "java2-runtime | java1-runtime".  Apparently the java package from sun (sun-java5-jre) provides java2-runtime and therefore satisfies the requirement for libservlet2.3.  However it doesn't appear to provide java-runtime and therefore can't satisfy the dependency requirement for libservlet2.4.
[11:05] <ketetha_> !keyboard
[11:05] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[11:05] <ketetha_> !tell ultramancool about keyboard
[11:05] <ultramancool> That was usefull :-)
[11:05] <Seveas> hmm, komozo www.ubuntu.com/download/mirror should get you started
[11:05] <ketetha_> ultramancool, is that useful? really. or are you being sarcastic haha
[11:05] <ultramancool> sarcastic
[11:06] <blue_flashlight> pluggo: make sure your webcam (probably snd-usb-audio or the like) gets loaded after your sound card's
[11:06] <ketetha_> ultramancool, haha sorry! i told you i dont know much. no clue. so im sorry. good luck
[11:06] <emoore> can anyone recommend a decent RSS feedreader *with offline reading ability* for ubuntu?
[11:06] <Seveas> emoore, I like liferea
[11:06] <ultramancool> Hmm...
[11:06] <emoore> does that let you read posts in HTML whilst offline?
[11:06] <ultramancool> I'm gonna go reboot and mess with it some more
[11:06] <airjump> .
[11:06] <pluggo> blue_flashlight: OK... how do I do that (short of not plugging it in until the system has started)
[11:06] <Seveas> emoore, yes
[11:06] <Ensiferum> lorn, my syslog is 64 megs after half an hour because of that error
[11:07] <ketetha_> ultramancool, hey to let people understand address people with their name first.a ll you have to do is right ket and press tap and my name will probably pop up. so three letters and a atab then you rmessage
[11:07] <ketetha_> ultramancool, will probably help :)
[11:07] <tanath> x won't start until i load fglrx, and now that it's running the Applications menu flickers constantly and is unusable
[11:07] <tanath> (after i click it)
[11:07] <Seveas> tanath, dpkg -l '*fglrx' | cat
[11:08] <Seveas> tanath, and put the output on the pastebin :)
[11:08] <ketetha_> what is x?
[11:08] <yggwork> haha
[11:08] <tanath> un  xfree86-driver-fglrx <none>         (no description available)
[11:08] <tanath> ii  xorg-driver-fglrx    8.26.18-1      Video driver for the ATI graphics accelerato
[11:08] <emoore> seveas: thanks - I had actually come across that and since totally forgotten about it. appreciated!
[11:08] <pluggo> ketetha_ : X = the Unix windowing system
[11:08] <walkover> hello! Does anyone i here have experience with obexftp and bluetooth?
[11:09] <Seveas> tanath, you manually installed the ati drivers I presume
[11:09] <walkover> in*
[11:09] <ketetha_> pluggo, haha okk thankss. i guess i soundd dumb
[11:09] <ketetha_> yggwork, you laughing at me? haha :)
[11:09] <Seveas> !x
[11:09] <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
[11:09] <pluggo> ketetha_ : There are no stupid questions, only stupid people... and the stupid people are the ones who don't ask questions :)
[11:09] <tanath> Seveas: i don't believe so. i mainly only use synaptic to install stuff, and sometimes apt-get
[11:09] <yggwork> uh i think so ...
[11:09] <ketetha_> pluggo, wow. very thoughtful quote. haha im going to save that :)
[11:09] <yggwork> but then ir ealized what you were doing
[11:10] <Seveas> tanath, can you put your sources.list on the pastebin
[11:10] <Ensiferum> what name should i use in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist ?
[11:10] <Seveas> tanath, the fglrx driver on your system is not in the Ubuntu archives...
[11:10] <sylvinus> hi!
[11:10] <Seveas> Ensiferum, what fo you want to blacklist?
[11:10] <ketetha_> yggwork, dont do it again. haha im just kidding :) i'd laugh at me too
[11:10] <sylvinus> My dapper's syslog restarts everyday. Is that an expected behaviour ?
[11:10] <Seveas> sylvinus, yes. logrotate does that
[11:11] <ketetha_> sylvinus, hi :)
[11:11] <harisund> I want to compile a kernel, but I want to use make oldconfig. Can I still do it? (I mean, I don't seem to be able to find the current kernel configuration files anywhere?)
[11:11] <sylvinus> Seveas, okay. Well, a side effect seems to kill my lighttpd, too. I don't know how to prevent it
[11:11] <Seveas> harisund, /boot/config-*
[11:11] <sylvinus> do you have a clue?
[11:11] <Ensiferum> Seveas: ata_piix
[11:11] <tanath> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17862
[11:11] <Desh> How can I IM someone not on my list in Naim?
[11:11] <Seveas> Ensiferum, "blacklist ata_piix" (without the quotes)
[11:11] <ketetha_> desh, click im then type their name
[11:11] <Desh> click?
[11:11] <Seveas> sylvinus, never used lighttpd, sorry
[11:11] <ketetha_> Desh, ok make sure no screenames are chosen
[11:12] <pluggo> click in naim?
[11:12] <Ensiferum> Seveas: ok, i got it, it just says in the blacklist file that an alias should be used there, but thats ata_piix i guess?
[11:12] <Desh> ketetha_: it's a cli app
[11:12] <kirk_> has anyone had any luck getting xgl to startup with ati card and dapper?
[11:12] <ketetha_> ketetha_ nevermind i thought yu said gaim
[11:12] <ultramancool> Ok, well... I'm on my ubntu

[11:12] <Desh> AH ok thanks.
[11:12] <walkover> i just got a new cellphone and i want to hook it up with my computer via bluetooth using obexftp. When i try to find the phone with obexftp my phone promts me for a password. I just dont know what that would be. Does anyone know what the password is for? is it for the phone? is it for obexftp? orr what is it?
[11:12] <harisund> oh nice .. thanks Seveas. Didn't expect to find it in /boot
[11:12] <hume> hi..what do I need to do to be able to print over LAN, between two dapper machines? printer connected to server does not show up in laptop, and kprinter says it cannot connect to its ip:631
[11:12] <Seveas> kirk_, I have  and #ubuntu-xgl too
[11:12] <ranunculoid> Hmmm.. I'm trying to upgrade Amarok from 1.3.9 to 1.4.x in Kubuntu 6.06 but it wont let me. It gives an error telling me that upgrading will break another package but it doesn't say which one is breaking... What should I do guys?
[11:12] <Desh> kirk_, you got fglrx to work? :)
[11:12] <ketetha_> Desh, haha sorry to confuse1 i was like hmm must be typo
[11:12] <Seveas> walkover, 1234
[11:12] <walkover> tried that
[11:12] <Seveas> (yes, insecure by default)
[11:13] <Desh> ketetha_: no problem. :)
[11:13] <Ensiferum> Seveas: shite, its still loaded
[11:13] <walkover> i also looked in the manual to find the password
[11:13] <Seveas> Ensiferum, modprobe -r ata_piix
[11:13] <Desh> :(! I want 3d acceleration, damn you ATI! Damn you Ubuntu!
[11:13] <Seveas> !language
[11:13] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:13] <pluggo> So... does anyone know how to set a sound card as default in System->Preferences->Sound, since my usb webcam is usurping my builtin soundcard?
[11:13] <walkover> the manual mentions a lot of pin passwords but never one for bluetooth
[11:13] <ketetha_> Desh, i'm going to find out for you though still. haha be right back
[11:13] <Ensiferum> Seveas: heh, cant do that
[11:13] <Desh> Thanks.
[11:13] <komozo> Seveas > i do it with apt-mirror on ububtu. wich tool on Debian is recommended or equivalent ?
[11:13] <Seveas> walkover, bluetooth pass == pin
[11:13] <Ensiferum> its a hd driver :p
[11:13] <nikosapi> Is there a way to force a re-install of a package with apt?
[11:13] <Seveas> Ensiferum, then reboot
[11:13] <ketetha_> Desh, http://naim.n.ml.org/docs/FAQ
[11:14] <Ensiferum> well yeah but it still loaded it
[11:14] <Seveas> nikosapi, apt-get install --reinstall package_name_here
[11:14] <ketetha_> Desh, try adding them to your buddylist first or something. then iming them.
[11:14] <Ensiferum> i added "ata_piix" to the blacklist
[11:14] <ultramancool> My keyboard is not responding after about 3 seconds of use on ubuntu's X server. It seems that if I switch to a VT and back it will work after it restarts X the first time logging in. /me is begining to wonder if that is totally random
[11:14] <nikosapi> Seveas: thank you
[11:14] <Seveas> Ensiferum, then it's loaded by something else
[11:14] <walkover> it says that i might have to enter a password for the unit im connecting but that is obexftp and what password is that. I never made one so.
[11:14] <Ensiferum> Seveas: any ways to figure out what loads it?
[11:14] <walkover> Seveas, no it is not
[11:14] <Seveas> Ensiferum, my best guess is somewhere in initramfs
[11:14] <ketetha_> Desh, To simply send an IM to someone who is not in your buddy list, just type `/msg
[11:14] <ketetha_> buddyname hello there'. THERE YA GO
[11:15] <tanath> Seveas: what driver should i use?
[11:15] <Seveas> but imitramfs is still a bit of black magic to me 
[11:15] <walkover> its not when i enable bluetooth
[11:15] <Ensiferum> ok, but theres a list somewhere i can force modules to be loaded?
[11:15] <La_PaRCa> How can I delete all .txt files in a directory?
[11:15] <ketetha_> Desh, To simply send an IM to someone who is not in your buddy list, just type `/msg buddyname hello there'. there you go. sorry there way a break in the line
[11:15] <Ensiferum> where was it?
[11:15] <Seveas> La_PaRCa, rm *.txt
[11:15] <XrekcaH> Whats a good ISO burning Program
[11:15] <walkover> it is as soon as obexftp finds it and tries to list the files of the phoine
[11:15] <pluggo> XrekcaH : cdrecord
[11:15] <TokenBad> there is real media plugin for ubuntu right?
[11:16] <Seveas> XrekcaH, rightclick on iso, click "burn to cd"

[11:16] <ketetha_> is there a wiki or help on mp3 players and hooking them up?
[11:16] <Seveas> XrekcaH, do you have 700mb+ cds?

[11:17] <Seveas> hi ColdDrive
[11:17] <HotDrive> is it possible to remove the games that came with ubuntu without destroying the ubuntu-desktop?
[11:18] <ketetha_> HotDrive, yes
[11:18] <Seveas> HotDrive, removing ubuntu-dedktop won't destry the desktop
[11:18] <squee> Does anyone else have trouble with Amarok 1.3.9 (using KDE 3.5.2)? I find it crashes a lot.
[11:18] <ketetha_> HotDrive, go to applications > accesories > alacarte
[11:18] <ketetha_> HotDrive, and you can remove it from the menu that way it doesnt show
[11:18] <TokenBad> ultramancool, easyubuntu?
[11:18] <gnomefreak> squee: upgrade it to amarok 1.4.1 and kde 3.5.3
[11:18] <komozo> Seveas> any idea ?
[11:18] <ultramancool> TokenBad: google it
[11:18] <HotDrive> but I mean really remove them
[11:19] <XrekcaH> What is a another iso burner?
[11:19] <ketetha_> squee, i seem to like it alot!
[11:19] <Seveas> XrekcaH, gnomebaker, k3b
[11:19] <danfg> the nvidia driver setup program i downloaded from www.nvidia.com asks me where it can find the kernel source. where the hell is it?
[11:19] <ketetha_> HotDrive, ok try applications add/remove programs, look under games, and remove the one you wnat
[11:19] <tanath> x won't start until i load fglrx, and now that it's running the Applications menu flickers constantly and is unusable
[11:19] <jrib> !nvidia > danfg
[11:19] <Seveas> !nvidia > danfg
[11:19] <Seveas> jrib, !
[11:19] <ultramancool> XrekcaH: For linux? try cdrecord dev=/dev/hdx isofile.iso
[11:19] <jrib> i win
[11:20] <ketetha_> HotDrive, does that help you any?
[11:20] <danfg> jrib, Seveas: you both lose :) there aren't any instructions there on the kind of nvidia driver install i'm trying to do
[11:20] <HotDrive> Ketetha_ -> no can do, says that I have to uninstal ubunto-games... and when I try to do this, aptitude says that needs to remove ubuntu-desktop too because of the dependencies
[11:20] <squee> kethetha_ I love amarok as well. I just upgraded to ubuntu 6.06 yesterday and since then nothing but problems. reminds me of v 1.1
[11:20] <Seveas> danfg, the instructions are: ditch whatever you downloaded and use what ubuntu provides
[11:20] <Seveas> it's the same version but usable
[11:21] <GStubbs43> My computer shows a Kubuntu boot screen when it is turning on, but it has Ubuntu/Gnome and not Kubuntu/KDE
[11:21] <squee> gnomefreak I just upgraded to ubuntu 6.06 yesterday and since then nothing but problems. reminds me of amarok v 1.1
[11:21] <ketetha_> HotDrive, ah. that sucks. well i'm not that good im not sure if i can help ou further
[11:21] <Ensiferum> haw haw haw on reboot [....]  BIOS not found error
[11:21] <danfg> Seveas: well, the one ubuntu provides doesn't seem to work with gf 6xxx boards, which is the one i'm using
[11:21] <Ensiferum> quality!
[11:21] <CrazyMonkey> How can I install ubuntu desktop with LVM?
[11:21] <DaSkreech> Hello I'm getting superblock errors on bootup
[11:21] <ketetha_> squee, hehe its ereally straightfoward and it looks good too :)
[11:21] <DaSkreech> I just reinstalled
[11:21] <Ensiferum> DaSkreech: borked diskx9r
[11:21] <ketetha_> squee, you were havin g aproblem with it?
[11:21] <HotDrive> ok, thanks anyway
[11:21] <Seveas> GStubbs43, sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)
[11:21] <auliya> j freebsd
[11:21] <DaSkreech> Ensiferum: How do I check that?
[11:21] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, did you find your problem
[11:21] <SurfnKid> someone send me a msg
[11:21] <devoinre> My system is stuck in 640x480 and their are no other options in "screen resolution prefrences". I need it at 1280x1024.
[11:21] <squee> ketetha_ to use it is easy
[11:21] <SurfnKid> testing somethin
[11:22] <Ensiferum> DaSkreech: badblocks, fsck
[11:22] <DaSkreech> ok
[11:22] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, i send you a message :)
[11:22] <ketetha_> squee, agreed
[11:22] <squee> ketetha_ my problem is it crashing
[11:22] <Ensiferum> ketetha_: im pretty sure its in libata again
[11:22] <ketetha_> squee, likes stops working?
[11:22] <pluggo> Google is my friend...
[11:22] <ketetha_> pluggo, google is MY bestfriend though :)
[11:22] <danfg> Seveas: there is a bug in the nvidia driver that is "fixed" by a change in a source file. so i'd have to compile the thing, ubuntu apparently doesn't include the fix in it's driver
[11:22] <squee> ketetha_ i have over 1700 tracks and a P3 pc.
[11:22] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, once again, its for xchat :)
[11:22] <sophie_> hi all
[11:23] <Ensiferum> the solution would most likely be to revert to using ide interface through piix rathern than use libata
[11:23] <pluggo> ketetha_ : hehehe
[11:23] <spundun> hi all...
[11:23] <Seveas> danfg, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[11:23] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, hehe :)
[11:23] <CrazyMonkey> How can I install ubuntu desktop using LVM?
[11:23] <Ensiferum> just this system seems to load ata_piix all the time
[11:23] <Seveas> danfg, that should be all you need
[11:23] <ketetha_> pluggo: :)
[11:23] <Ensiferum> even though its on the shitlist now
[11:23] <sophie_> anybody has successfully installed dapper on ibook g4 ?
[11:23] <danfg> Seveas: thanks, and where will these headers be located once they're installed?
[11:23] <Ensiferum> bwt, could someone put a channel mode that hides joins and parts?
[11:23] <ketetha_> squee, well i have no clue what would be the problem, maybe you should re install it. all your music is saved and stuff right?
[11:23] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, bah, didnt work, PM plz :P
[11:24] <Seveas> danfg, the nvidia installer *should* find them automatically
[11:24] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, haha okk. wait one second
[11:24] <ranunculoid> I'm having trouble upgrading amarok, http://pastebin.ca/86428 <-- Any ideas guys??
[11:24] <Seveas> danfg, /usr/src/linux-headers-something
[11:24] <Ensiferum> was i kicked?
[11:24] <ardchoille> If I want to run a script when a user logs in, would I put that sript into /home/username/.local/autostart ?
[11:24] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, haha it says HOLA do you really surf
[11:24] <spundun> on my powerpc ubuntu installation, in synaptic (or apt-get) I can't see ddd but it should be available according to http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/breezy/devel/ddd .... do I have my repositories incomplete or something?
[11:24] <devoinre> will someone help with my resolution issue? I need it at 1280x1024 and it is stuck at 640x480.
[11:24] <danfg> Seveas: thanks a lot, you've been very helpful :)

[11:24] <unstablesob> Can anyone help me build kernel modules for vmware-player?
[11:24] <ultramancool> danfg, Seveas: Kernel headers? You have to specify them manually. It's a pain, but it works
[11:24] <ketetha_> !version
[11:24] <squee> ketetha_ it is. anyother ideas?
[11:24] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type 'lsb_release -a' in the Terminal.
[11:25] <Ensiferum> ketetha_: i c
[11:25] <Seveas> spundun, sources.list in the pastebin please
[11:25] <Lobster> n8
[11:25] <Seveas> unstablesob, don't.
[11:25] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, does it? lol
[11:25] <ketetha_> Ensiferum, wasnt me. haha just tellin gyouu
[11:25] <Seveas> unstablesob, install vmware-player from the repos
[11:25] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, weird im just trying this xchat plugin
[11:25] <hephaestus> i just ran the newest updates on my desktop and now x wont load ... has anyone else seen this?
[11:25] <Seveas> hephaestus, edgy?
[11:25] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, haha yess :) what plugin? is it working out?
[11:25] <unstablesob> Seveas: it doesn't have updated modules for the new kernel
[11:25] <SurfnKid> ah its flashing now
[11:25] <Seveas> it should
[11:25] <ketetha_> squee, nah im beat. i have no clue why it would be messing up. you said it was the newest version rihgt?
[11:26] <ketetha_> squee, sometimes mine freezes but i just wait about 2 minutes and its gone.
[11:26] <SurfnKid> now it is, dunno why, taskbar away plugin for xchat
[11:26] <hephaestus> seveas, yeah
[11:26] <GStubbs43> Thank you for that code whoever gave it to me ;) It worked.
[11:26] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, yay :)
[11:26] <Seveas> unstablesob, please file a bug instead of working around it so everyone can benefit from a solution
[11:26] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, thx, it lets me know if someone sent a msg by flashin
[11:26] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, ooh cool. mine just turns red once. do you have the name of that pllugin?
[11:26] <unstablesob> Seveas: thats fine and all but it doesn't help me getting vmware-player working right now, which I need
[11:26] <squee> ketetha_ yes just updated yesterday. i was just wondering if there were any major bugs in it that were'nt fixed yet
[11:27] <unstablesob> nm, i'll just boot into the older kernel
[11:27] <Seveas> unstablesob, you're a bit out of luck mixing manually compiled modules with ubuntu packages
[11:27] <ketetha_> squee, maybee! did your older version work better? well you either cna wait it ou or try another player. but personally for amaroK since i like it so much i would wait it out
[11:27] <SurfnKid> xchat-systray
[11:27] <Seveas> if you wnat it working now: use the older kernel
[11:27] <unstablesob> noted
[11:27] <unstablesob> thanks
[11:28] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, thankss! gonna return the favor and im me after im doneee? haha
[11:28] <SurfnKid> hehe yeah
[11:28] <Ensiferum> hah, i renamed the ata_piix.ko file
[11:28] <Ensiferum> wonder if it still loads it :)'
[11:28] <Seveas> Ensiferum, most likely it will
[11:28] <DaSkreech> Ensiferum: All checks come back as good
[11:28] <Seveas> due to the initramfs 
[11:28] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, do i have to restart xchat or anything?
[11:28] <Ensiferum> Seveas: yes, it does, how is that possible?
[11:29] <mecca> hey guys... i got a new monitor and was wondering if theres a quick and easy way to make it autodetect and adjust the X server settings in ubuntu
[11:29] <DaSkreech> Why would I get a superblock error upon reinstall?
[11:29] <mecca> *i went from regular to widescreen and its all screwy now*
[11:29] <SurfnKid> mmm
[11:29] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, go ahead and im me
[11:29] <Seveas> Ensiferum, regenerate your initramfs (sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)) after renaming the module
[11:29] <theapoc> Anyone familiar with vmware?
[11:29] <SurfnKid> did an X appear in the systray?
[11:29] <ketetha_> or anyone for that matter. PM away :)
[11:29] <DaSkreech> mecca: dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver
[11:29] <danfg> i'm going to try installing the nvidia drivers, wish me luck, brb
[11:29] <mecca> DaSkreech, thanks bud
[11:29] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, i think you might have to
[11:29] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, yepp theres an x
[11:29] <SurfnKid> oh ok
[11:29] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, coolers
[11:29] <ultramancool> I just upped my kernel, see you later guys
[11:29] <CrazyMonkey> How can I install ubuntu desktop using LVM?
[11:30] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, you can set up browser, mail and music player
[11:30] <DaSkreech> CrazyMonkey: You have LVm already?
[11:30] <sophie_> CrazyMonkey, you need a cd to install ubuntu, not lvm
[11:30] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, in the xchat? i can do that stuff? seriously?
[11:30] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, with the plugin
[11:30] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, COOL BEANS. thats awesome
[11:30] <Ensiferum> Seveas: what does that do?
[11:30] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, how do i set up the broswer
[11:30] <theapoc> Anyone familiar with vmware?
[11:30] <Ensiferum> theapoc: yes
[11:31] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, on the X settings rigth click to Systray Settings
[11:31] <Seveas> Ensiferum, it'll regenerate your initramfs without that driver included - so it cannot load
[11:31] <MTecknology> I need help, Firefox crashes when I visit certain pages and I don't know why
[11:31] <squee> sorry feckin power cables everywhere
[11:31] <CrazyMonkey> sophie_ : lol, i have a cd, i want it to partition my drive to use LVM, i know you have this option when using the server cd but i dont see it on the desktop cd
[11:31] <Seveas> MTecknology, disable all plugins and extensions
[11:31] <gnomefreak> MTecknology: what pages?
[11:31] <Seveas> and see whether that helps
[11:31] <theapoc> Ensiferum: I'm having some trouble with it. I installed it yesterday and installed WinXP. All worked fine, but after I rebooted my computer I was no longer able to power it on. Here is the error I get.
[11:31] <DaSkreech> Why would I get a superblock error upon reinstall?
[11:31] <gnomefreak> or Seveas way ;)
[11:32] <polpak> CrazyMonkey, you need the alternate install CD for that I think
[11:32] <MTecknology> gnomefreak, myspace pages usually
[11:32] <Seveas> DaSkreech, failing disk
[11:32] <sophie_> CrazyMonkey, you want your root fs on lvm ?
[11:32] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, i dont understandd
[11:32] <theapoc> Ensiferum: Unable to change virtual machine power state: The process exited with an error:
[11:32] <theapoc> End of error message.
[11:32] <DaSkreech> Seveas: Just did a check
[11:32] <DaSkreech> Seems fine
[11:32] <gnomefreak> MTecknology: than i would think flash
[11:32] <CrazyMonkey> sophie_ yes
[11:32] <Ensiferum> Seveas: sorry for a stupid question but what is initramfs?
[11:32] <theapoc> Ensiferum: someone told me it was due to priviledges
[11:32] <gnomefreak> my sisters myspace has a lot of flash on it
[11:32] <gnomefreak> and music
[11:32] <Crescendo> Why is a person intelligent enough to use Linux stupid enough to use MySpace?
[11:32] <Seveas> Ensiferum, a sort of cache that's loaded into memory before booting to help the kernel boot
[11:32] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, theres an Xchat icon on the taskbar, but you might have to restart Xchat to get it up there
[11:32] <MTecknology> gnomefreak, where can I see the log file?
[11:32] <Crescendo> MTecknology, try EasyUbuntu.
[11:32] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, okk i will restart
[11:32] <ketetha_> byee guyss

[11:33] <Ensiferum> ill try taht
[11:33] <gavagai> I am using "wondershaper" to limit bandwidth on a linux box.  it works great on traffic to/from the internet, but it is having strange effects within my LAN.  if i try to do an ftp transfer on my network it is ridiculously slow, way beneath the wondershaper settings.  Any ideas?
[11:33] <Prozac> i already had it that way, gavagai.
[11:33] <MTecknology> o

[11:34] <gavagai> Prozac, ?
[11:34] <Prozac> i don't know, gavagai
[11:34] <Ensiferum> isnt there a channel mode on freenode to hide joins and parts at least?
[11:34] <rsk> OrgulloKmoore, with mplayer and win32codecs
[11:34] <gavagai> Ensiferum, you do that on your client not the server
[11:34] <jrib> OrgulloKmoore: xine or mplayer, with w32codecs
[11:34] <Seveas> Ensiferum, most chat clients can do that
[11:34] <ketetha_> ok SurfnKid PM mehh :)
[11:34] <ketetha_> or anyone PM me
[11:34] <Seveas> Ensiferum, what are you using?

[11:34] <gavagai> Ensiferum, well that and a dollar gets you a ride on the bus.  :)

[11:41] <Seveas> bbrazil, then use a half-decent distro :
[11:41] <SurfnKid> pollo, ok cool, someone will want to test it out then hehe
[11:41] <pollo> just a try on gnomemeeting
[11:41] <bbrazil> Seveas: no, I prefer a full-decent distro. Which is why I use Sarge :)
[11:42] <bbrazil> Seveas: anyway - this is more for -offtopiv
[11:42] <pollo> waiting...

[11:44] <SurfnKid> SomeoneElse, ok
[11:44] <SomeoneElse> i ubdated my kernel and lost my xpboot

[11:46] <SurfnKid> pollo, my webcam crashes i gotta fix it
[11:46] <johlin> I have a little problem with codeblocks. Whenever I try to drag the tabs (by mistake), the application hangs and also gdm. I can switch to a terminal, killall codeblocks but gdm will still hang (and if I restart gdm I get blank screen, another story). I reproduced this with 3 nightly builds. I compiled a new one one hour ago, and I'll test it soon (just gotta be a little productive first). I just want to know, if this a
[11:46] <johlin> problem with gdm, codeblocks or wxwindows (doesn't codeblocks use that?)?
[11:46] <finrod> I seem to have problems starting quake3, it exits showing no obvious errors, google found setting X to 24bpp as a solution to "Could not get a visual", however, it already is on 24bpp. I'm using fglrx, and according to glxinfo and glxgears, it works fine. - http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/2166/

[11:47] <Ensiferum> i can rename the module, but i cant rerun the config
[11:47] <squee> SurfnKid   will that work on Ubuntu 6.06
[11:47] <Ensiferum> so will it work then?

[11:47] <Jeeves__> Bit busy in here, and late, will try back tomorrow,
[11:47] <Seveas> Ensiferum, can't rerun the config?
[11:47] <rixxon> polpak: i installed libruby, still same error. i think i need to point make somewhere?
[11:48] <bbrazil> FreshManIce: I installed at 17 or so, and tried them one by one

[11:48] <bbrazil> FreshManIce: s/at/all/
[11:48] <polpak> rixxon, how did you install it?
[11:48] <SurfnKid> np
[11:48] <rixxon> polpak: apt-get
[11:48] <polpak> rixxon, then it should work
[11:48] <Seveas> Ensiferum, you'll need to chroot into your installed system to re-run the dpkg-reconfigure
[11:48] <Ensiferum> Seveas: dpkl-reconfigure ...
[11:48] <Ensiferum> ok
[11:48] <FreshManIce> all right
[11:48] <SurfnKid> squee, works so far, and havent had any errors, but i dont use a list of files like you do, just stream music
[11:48] <thegattaca> Hello :)
[11:49] <SurfnKid> Ensiferum, you mean dpkg?

[11:49] <ketetha_> hi
[11:49] <rixxon> polpak: well, it doesn't... '/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lruby' :)
[11:49] <FreshManIce> i guess I'll just charge through it.  Worst that can happen is I'll have to rework the system.
[11:49] <rixxon> polpak: trying to compile xchat-ruby
[11:49] <thegattaca> I love the hardware support in ubuntu :)
[11:49] <Ensiferum> SurfnKid: yes...

[11:50] <rixxon> polpak: there is a precompiled binary for xchat-ruby but with it i get ' libruby.so.1.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or director'
[11:50] <funkja> how do you find out with kernel you are using?
[11:50] <bbrazil> FreshManIce: on ubuntu, you usually want xcfe, kde or gnome as they have the best support
[11:50] <squee> kethetha_ downloading v 1.4
[11:50] <Spec> uname -a
[11:50] <rixxon> polpak: so xchat folks told me to compile... which doesn't work either :)

[11:57] <SurfnKid> squee, Let synaptic take care of it
[11:57] <bbrazil> zomorf: firstly - 5.04 is out old, 6.06 is out. Secondly I reccomend shorewall
[11:57] <korkow> does anything burn .cdi files?
[11:57] <ketetha_> seveas, ill stick to the regular way :)
[11:57] <Seveas> korkow, no
[11:57] <squee> its not on synaptic
[11:57] <Spec> probably not
[11:57] <korkow> dang

[11:57] <Spec> who makes .cdi files?
[11:57] <korkow> that sucks
[11:57] <ketetha_> seveas, are there other themes besides the one already on ubuntu in the packages?
[11:57] <SurfnKid> squee, add the deb source to sources.list and run sudo apt-get update
[11:57] <MTecknology> any help?
[11:57] <korkow> discjuggler

[11:57] <Seveas> ketetha_, the power button gives me the logout dialog on my machine - you can see that as shortcut
[11:58] <zomorf> bbrazil I tried 6.06 install cd desktop and it wouldn't mount my cd drive... So I tried v5.04 and it installed AOK...
[11:58] <korkow> thats what i need to burn though
[11:58] <korkow> ...
[11:58] <SurfnKid> squee, /etc/apt/sources.list edit that, add the deb to the bottom
[11:58] <Spec> send an e-mail to discjuggler then
[11:58] <Seveas> ketetha_, dunno, I stuck to Human since the beginning (sept '04)
[11:58] <squee> SurfnKid
[11:58] <SurfnKid> yes master
[11:58] <squee> SurfnKid kk
[11:58] <Spec> Seveas: you use human?
[11:58] <korkow> i wonder if there is anything that'll convert it
[11:58] <LGKeiz> Sorry about the spam
[11:58] <bbrazil> zomorf: older shorewall isn't as good. Pure routing is quite simple in linux though. Just turn on ip forwarding and setup your routing table
[11:58] <LGKeiz> wireless + microwave= bad
[11:58] <Seveas> Spec, yeah, I like the brownness
[11:59] <ketetha_> seveas, wow that a lonnnng timeee.
[11:59] <Spec> i use it too, but only because i'm lazy
[11:59] <Seveas> Spec, /me too - won't deny that that's a factor
[11:59] <Spec> hehe
[11:59] <GStubbs43> How do you install splash screens like: http://www.gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=160
[11:59] <zomorf> bbrazil can I forward ports easily just with ubuntu?
[11:59] <Spec> well, i don't not like it ;)

[11:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:59] <Seveas> ketetha_, human evolved over time though
[11:59] <Seveas> it used to be darker
[11:59] <Rower|Magda> LGKeiz: not a good combination to put your card in the microwave :S
[11:59] <Spec> zomorf: you could use your ubuntu machine as a full-fledged router if you so desired too
[12:00] <LGKeiz> LOL no
[12:00] <bbrazil> zomorf: you want some sort of NAT setup? Should be doable, but I'm unsure what software other than the basics comes with 5.04
[12:00] <LGKeiz> The microwave cuts the connection
[12:00] <FifaFrazer> How do i know if my system is i686 or 386 ?
[12:00] <squee> SurfnKid malformed line deb http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.1.php

[12:00] <bbrazil> FifaFrazer: what speed is your cpu?
[12:00] <ketetha_> seveas, ahh i see.  have a question. 9menu (the package) says creates X menus from the shell. what does that men in laymens terms
[12:00] <judah> LGKeiz: then you have one leaky microwave.. don't stand in front of it.
[12:00] <squee> SurfnKid  can you give me the whole line
[12:00] <Seveas> ketetha_, no clue
[12:00] <judah> LGKeiz: you'll cook your own liver.
[12:00] <arkx> korkow: cdi2iso
[12:00] <zomorf> currently I use winroute on an win98 machine... it has NAT and also allows port forwarding...
