[12:01] <zomorf> I'll try and find some guides or something...
[12:01] <jonah1980> is there any way to get rid of this error message i get every time i do an update or install or remove a package? E: selinux-policy-default: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[12:02] <bbrazil> zomorf: if shorewall is in 5.0.4 try using that, there should also be some other firewalling scripts

[12:02] <ketetha_> root____ hi
[12:02] <ketetha_> romperstomper, hi
[12:02] <romperstomper> hey guys
[12:03] <zomorf> how do I find out if shorewall is in 5.04?
[12:03] <gatekeeper> jonah1980: presumable it's a broken package that needs removing you using cli or gui?

[12:03] <malin> hello
[12:03] <SurfnKid> squee, check this page out http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.1.php
[12:03] <romperstomper> quick Q, how do i check the default desktop theme is kde or gnome???
[12:03] <bbrazil> zomorf: apt-cache show shorewall
[12:03] <SurfnKid> squee, run the 2 commands on a VT
[12:03] <ketetha_> malin, hey! need help?
[12:03] <jonah1980> gatekeeper, it just says it whatever i use
[12:03] <bbrazil> zomorf: shorewall.org has all the docs. I'm guessing you want a SNAT and DNAT setup
[12:03] <SurfnKid> squee, thats why you get the error
[12:03] <Ensiferum> Seveas: booted into live ubuntu no
[12:03] <jonah1980> gatekeeper, i've been in here a bit and on forums hoping someone can help fix it but no one seems to know what it is
[12:04] <Ensiferum> Seveas: how did i run that dkpkg-configure then?
[12:04] <FifaFrazer> "You have 386 kernel files installed. Ubuntu says your computer is i686. Is your system 386?" What am i supposed to answer? My cpu is 2.53 Ghz p4
[12:04] <squee> SurfnKid whats a VT?
[12:04] <meheren> Is there a way to get synaptic/apt-get to use the source and compile it? rather then the binary?
[12:04] <ketetha_> is it possible to make your text on xchat a little big bigger
[12:04] <Spec> VT = virtual terminal
[12:04] <SurfnKid> squee, its like a Dos screen, Virtual Terminal
[12:04] <Spec> or virginia tech
[12:04] <jonah1980> gatekeeper, things install, update and remove and work fine but the Selinux thing is always there, it's frustrating
[12:04] <SelfHarm> whats a popular package for showing stats on the desktop, like coolmon?
[12:04] <Spec> !VT
[12:04] <malin> ketetha_: no, not now, just wanted to be here :-)
[12:04] <ubotu> I know nothing about VT - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:04] <malin> i like irc :-)
[12:05] <ketetha_> malin, cool same
[12:05] <bbrazil> judah: have you looked at the script it's running to see why it fails?
[12:05] <Stormx2> What is the command for unzipping in ubuntu?
[12:05] <malin> i'm sure questions will come in just a second :-)
[12:05] <bbrazil> Stormx2: unzip
[12:05] <Stormx2> XD
[12:05] <Stormx2> OK.
[12:05] <Spec> Stormx2: this is a hard one, 'unzip' :)
[12:05] <meheren> ketha_, settings -> prferences -> then choose font size
[12:05] <gatekeeper> jonah1980: I use synaptic which tells me if there are boken packages, and if there are I either fix them or remove them
[12:05] <judah> bbrazil: what script? fail who?

[12:06] <crimsun> meheren: did you recompile your kernel?
[12:06] <gatekeeper> jonah1980: tried removing selinux?

[12:06] <meheren> hmm?
[12:06] <crimsun> meheren: (#alsa)
[12:06] <meheren> crimsun, ah..
[12:06] <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/ *repeats*

[12:07] <Prozac> i already had it that way, romperstomper.
[12:07] <jonah1980> gatekeeper, i can't remove it, it seems to be a core component, when you try remove it it asks to remove loads and loads of other stuff
[12:07] <Spec> romperstomper: gnome and kde aren't themes
[12:07] <jonah1980> bbrazil, how can i do that?
[12:07] <jjez> Hm, how do I install aMSN? Can't find it in Synaptic Package Manager, and I don't know how to 'open' the .deb-file I downloaded from their homepage.
[12:07] <malin> hm, amaroK won't play my music

[12:07] <malin> Rhythmbox is ok, but i can't get it to work in amaroK
[12:07] <bbrazil> jonah1980: I'm not sure exactly, Under /var/lib/dpkg I guess
[12:08] <SurfnKid> squee,with those 2 commands wget, sudo apt-key get the keys in and then run synaptic
[12:08] <malin> it just won't play
[12:08] <ketetha_> malin, is it just supressing hte music
[12:08] <malin> i double-click it and nothing happens
[12:08] <ketetha_> malin, is it ogg
[12:08] <malin> no, it's mp3
[12:08] <meheren> crimson, Is it better to not have support in the kernel and to uso some package?
[12:08] <ketetha_> malin, it wont work
[12:08] <malin> ?
[12:08] <malin> why?
[12:08] <ketetha_> malin, i've tried that. ok go to your packages
[12:08] <crimsun> meheren: it's better to use modules for troubleshooting.
[12:08] <meheren> crimson, ok
[12:09] <meheren> whyis it that on ubuntu there are never any operators/voiced people?
[12:09] <FifaFrazer> "You have 386 kernel files installed. Ubuntu says your computer is i686. Is your system 386?" What am i supposed to answer? My cpu is 2.53 Ghz p4
[12:09] <ketetha_> malin, it wont work with mp3s for some reason, even though i have the plugin. go to your packages and search for mp32ogg and download it
[12:09] <Jeeves_Moss> all:  hello all
[12:10] <meheren> on #gentoo theres always >like 30
[12:10] <Jack_Smirnoff> meheren: , they are here just ask..
[12:10] <malin> but i don't want ogg, i want mp3
[12:10] <malin> it will work
[12:10] <jonah1980> bbrazil, is there something i can type to install on command line so i can show you the error i get in full?
[12:10] <FreshManIce> ketetha_ you're saying that MP3 playback in Linux is difficult and .ogg conversion is the only reasonable option?
[12:10] <ketetha_> malin, ok then use xmms player then. becuase it won tplay mp3s
[12:10] <meheren> Jack_Smirnoff, on xchat It says 0 ors, 830 total
[12:10] <bbrazil> jonah1980: copy&paste the error to a pastebin
[12:11] <malin> yes it will
[12:11] <malin> my flatmate made amaroK play his mp3's
[12:11] <ketetha_> FreshManIce, kind of. thats just my opinion though.
[12:11] <malin> it is possible for sure
[12:11] <Jack_Smirnoff> meheren: What do you need an op for?
[12:11] <FreshManIce> all right
[12:11] <ketetha_> malin, i know its possible
[12:11] <jonah1980> bbrazil, what do i type from terminal to install something with apt-get etc?
[12:11] <Gregy1727> FreshManIce:
[12:11] <squee> SurfnKid so copy those two commands into the terminal...then whaT
[12:11] <ketetha_> malin, fine go to packages and download gstreamer0.8-mad

[12:11] <Gregy1727> if you want to play mp3's you have to download the restricted formats for ubuntu
[12:11] <SurfnKid> squee, yes, one by one tho
[12:11] <ketetha_> freshmanice, it never works for me. does it for you?
[12:11] <squee> SurfnKid done
[12:12] <meheren> Jack_Smirnoff, I dont (right now) but there nice to have when people flam/break rules...
[12:12] <Jack_Smirnoff> meheren: What do you need an op for? They usually only show up when there is a disturbance
[12:12] <chourmo1234> hi everybody, i'm new to ubuntu and need your help, as the automatic updates do not work
[12:12] <elvirolo> hi all
[12:12] <FreshManIce> in my 2 hours of playing with kaffeine, I was never able to playan MP3.
[12:12] <SurfnKid> squee, if youve already added the deb, then just run  Synaptic
[12:12] <meheren> I don't! I was just asking a question...
[12:12] <malin> meheren: there are people here who can manage the channel
[12:12] <Gregy1727> see this webpage for info about restricted formats: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[12:12] <malin> they are just not opped
[12:12] <ketetha_> FreshManIce, haha exactly. and i spent like 3 hours on it :) so i just felt ike doing mp3toogg but malin doesnt want to hear that

[12:15] <ketetha_> maiden30403, what are you putting in the terminal when it says that
[12:15] <dli> maiden30403, install build-essential
[12:16] <maiden30403> 'make' (w/o quotes obiously)
[12:16] <jonah1980> so anyone have any ideas what could be wrong? or what i need to do - i posted in ubuntu community but didn't get any response, i hope it can be fixed somehow, i don't like my comp to be in a mess!
[12:16] <Gregy1727> maiden30403: you need to install build-essential

[12:16] <elvirolo> Jack_Smirnoff: ok
[12:17] <Gregy1727> maiden30403: if you need help you can also find the package on CD. If you can't get it installed come back to me and i will help you.
[12:17] <Jack_Smirnoff> elvirolo: did you upgrade or fresh install for Dapper?
[12:17] <romperstomper> just outta curiosity is there a config file i can check to find that out? or a command i can run??
[12:17] <bbrazil> jonah1980: are policycoreutils and checkpolicy installed?
[12:17] <elvirolo> Jack_Smirnoff: fresh install
[12:17] <ketetha_> maiden30403, OR ME! haha just kidding :)
[12:17] <Jack_Smirnoff> romperstomper: Gnome for Ubuntu and KDE for Kubuntu
[12:17] <romperstomper> ah
[12:18] <romperstomper> thx
[12:18] <elektronik> jest kto z Polski :>?
[12:18] <jonah1980> bbrazil, yeah they're both installed
[12:18] <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!
[12:18] <bbrazil> jonah1980: try reinstalling both
[12:18] <SurfnKid> ketetha_, used to freeze a lot when initiating it on amsn, so im testing now
[12:19] <Jack_Smirnoff> fdsd: if you compress with dd then it will only see real data
[12:19] <waltman_> romperstomper, KDE is also available for Ubuntu, but then i recommend removing Gnome, if you have small hard drive like i have, 18.6gt :D
[12:19] <fdsd> Jack_Smirnoff, how do I do that?
[12:20] <shigutso> does anybody knows a bandwidth limiter for Linux? I've already tried Trickle, but it is text-based... and it is very limited... isn't there any... graphical?
[12:20] <Jack_Smirnoff> read the section in Ubuntu on backup...
[12:20] <romperstomper> well im new to ubuntu and happy with the desktop, just wondering as some apps are dependant on desktop (for whatever reason)
[12:20] <Jack_Smirnoff> LEt me find the link
[12:20] <jonah1980> bbrazil, no that's not helped or changed anything
[12:20] <fdsd> Jack_Smirnoff, dd bs=512 if=/dev/rdisk2s3 conv=noerror,sync | gzip -9 > foo.dmg.gz  ?
[12:20] <jonah1980> bbrazil, re-installed both and it's the same errors
[12:20] <Jack_Smirnoff> I cant find the link on this PC..
[12:20] <Luke> dpkg: warning - old pre-removal script returned error exit status 102
[12:20] <bbrazil> jonah1980: you'll have to poke at the post-install script then - try and figure out what exacty is going wrong
[12:20] <Luke> how do i fix this?
[12:21] <jonah1980> bbrazil, ok how can i go about doing that?
[12:21] <romperstomper> thx for the help guys im off
[12:21] <squee> SurfnKid not in synaptic but its says theres a v1.4 . i apt-get update and this came up     Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-security/Release  Unable to find expected entry  universea/source/Sources in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)

[12:21] <bbrazil> jonah1980: I can't help you there I'm afraid
[12:21] <waltman_> romperstomper, i quess there's no programs dependant from gnome than those which begin with g, like gftp
[12:21] <CrazyMonkey> polpak, thanks for the hint :) the alternate cd does the install with LVM, exactly what i needed
[12:21] <Jack_Smirnoff> fdsd that looks tight but I an NOT comfortable with dd yet, so PLEASE get a second opinion..
[12:21] <polpak> CrazyMonkey, =)
[12:21] <Seveas> squee, you misspelled universe
[12:21] <fdsd> Jack_Smirnoff, im alittle scared of that command, I guess Ill have to test it
[12:21] <Seveas> you wrote universea
[12:22] <dli> Luke, better to read the script, if nothing can be done (or needed to be done), return at the very beginning of that script file
[12:22] <jonah1980> bbrazil, thanks anyway, it's weird that no one can help me with this, it's like it's never been seen before - mostly ppl can help with everything but this one is a real unknown one!!
[12:22] <shigutso> does anybody know a Bandwidth Limiter for Linux? I've already tried Trickle, but it is text-based... and it is very limited... isn't there any... graphical?
[12:22] <Luke> dli: what'd you mean?
[12:22] <squee> SurfnKid i didnt type it anywhere. where is it wrong?
[12:22] <Luke> dli: try to execute the script manually?
[12:22] <bbrazil> jonah1980: I could probably fix it if I was sitting at the system. Did you fully purge and reinstall those other two?
[12:23] <abo> can anyone help me with a grub error, I tried to resize/move my partitions and grub doesn't start anymore
[12:23] <jonah1980> bbrazil, well i marked them for reinstall on synaptic and applied it etc
[12:23] <dli> Luke, no, read it, figure out what's wrong, in the folder /var/lib/dpkg/info/
[12:23] <bbrazil> jonah1980: Im not sure that that would run their scripts
[12:23] <Luke> dli: thanks
[12:23] <dli> abo, just reinstall grub (if your partition is correct now)
[12:23] <bbrazil> jonah1980: also see what dli just said
[12:24] <ketetha_> backkk
[12:24] <Luke> dli: i have no idea what this stuff means
[12:24] <ketetha_> ugh im so bored
[12:24] <abo> dli, I tried sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/boot/grub /dev/sda it's giving an error The file /mnt/boot/grub/boot/grub/stage2 not read correctly.
[12:24] <squee> SurfnKid got it
[12:24] <ketetha_> i need somethign to install
[12:24] <squee> SurfnKid me learn fast
[12:24] <maiden30403> Hey O was here a few min ago and I'm just wondering is the repostries index down or is it a problem on my side?
[12:25] <jonah1980> bbrazil, what you mean open the dpkg/info folder?
[12:25] <abo> dli, I'm not sure my partitions are correct...
[12:25] <krism> nvidia hates me :(
[12:25] <Anti-Tedd||Lappy> How can I play m4a in Banshee? I asked this before but I got disconnected
[12:26] <dli> abo, not enough info, you need to have /boot under that root-directory
[12:26] <jonah1980> bbrazil, the folder doesn't have anything in there
[12:26] <shigutso> does anybody know a Bandwidth Limiter for Linux? I've already tried Trickle, but it is text-based... and it is very limited... isn't there any... graphical?
[12:26] <krism> i have 3 monitors - two on an nvidia 6600gt with twinview, and one on a nvidia fx5200, and when i have them both on in X, the gnome panel insists on spreading across at least two monitors
[12:26] <interfear> How can I install a pcf font in 6.06 so that I can use the pcf font in gnome-terminal?
[12:26] <SurfnKid> squee, did you set the multiverse repositories?
[12:27] <dli> jonah1980, your /var/lib/dpkg/info is empty?
[12:27] <squee> SurfnKid set the what now
[12:27] <SurfnKid> !Repositories
[12:27] <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
[12:27] <abo> dli, not enough info, you mean I didn't supply enough info to the grub-install command?
[12:27] <bbrazil> jonah1980: then your installation is probably damaged beyond repair
[12:27] <chowells> does the ubuntu installer create a customised initrd for the hardware it detects, or is it a standard one?
[12:27] <natan-> are there any programs that will stream videos out, sort of like windows media encoder?

[12:28] <jonah1980> dli, nope i just thought it was sorry - have you any idea how i can fix this?
[12:28] <chowells> bbrazil: ok thanks. We found that the initrd was missing various modules required to boot a new server with SAS disks, so I'll file a bug report, I think

[12:29] <abo> dli, what do you mean I need to have /boot under that root-directory? I htink I need to clarify, I am now running using live ubuntu which doesn't mount my normal linux partition (/dev/sda6) on / , so I mounted it on /mnt this is why I have /mnt/boot....
[12:29] <dli> jonah1980, you need to understand the script, why it returned an error, whether you can ignore the error and force it to return
[12:29] <paied> my main pc is custom from source so =p
[12:29] <paied> ubuntu on the box behind me =p
[12:29] <stefan_> natan-, I am not completely shure, I just know VLC can do a lot ;-)
[12:29] <dli> abo, read the grub howto

[12:31] <Sir_Fawnpug> That's not as heavyweight as gdm
[12:31] <malin> it was just a question of installing additional codecs from restricted formats

[12:32] <arrai> hello, what is the command to mount /dev?
[12:32] <Seveas> Sir_Fawnpug, never used that, can't say whethere it is light or nice or neither
[12:32] <SurfnKid> squee, brb
[12:32] <Jack_Smirnoff> Sorry, but it still looks like another pkg mgr is locking that file
[12:33] <jonah1980> dli, i don't seem to have that file, i've got some foomatic ones and a foo2zjs
[12:33] <squee> SurfnKid kk reading it now
[12:33] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai what type of drive do you want to mount
[12:33] <dli> jonah1980, I mean <package name>.prerm
[12:33] <Sir_Fawnpug> Seveas, ahh, well I'll do a little bit more research. I'm not a big fan of either kde or gnome so that's why I'm looking for an alternative.
[12:34] <Sir_Fawnpug> I run flux on this system (which is running ubuntu)
[12:34] <jonah1980> dli, you mean the selinux package?
[12:34] <arrai> Jack_Smirnoff: I want to mount the /dev directory, which is (as far as i know) a virtual fs
[12:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai: Vfat?
[12:34] <stefan_> arrai, what for?
[12:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai: Vfat?  Windows partitions?
[12:35] <gregg__> hey, how usable is edgy eft atm?
[12:35] <arrai> no, i want to chroot to repair my grub, but it complains because there is no /dev/sdX
[12:35] <Seveas> gregg__, sort-of usable
[12:35] <Seveas> if you're not onppc
[12:35] <gregg__> Seveas: which means?
[12:35] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai: so it dosent see your sata drive
[12:36] <jonah1980> dli, i've got five selinux-policy-default files in there but none with a .prerm
[12:36] <dli> arrai, in a livecd? can do see it in " fdisk -l " ?
[12:36] <maiden30403> Jack_Smirnoff, I'm still having the problem
[12:36] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai: I would dl the SUper Grub Repair CD.  It can work wonders
[12:36] <dli> Jack_Smirnoff, which package?
[12:36] <malin> anyone knows a DC++ client other than linux dc++ or valknut?
[12:36] <Jack_Smirnoff> NOt a package it is an ISO
[12:36] <hivemind> Sorry, guys, I just need to c+p this

[12:37] <Jack_Smirnoff> Google it
[12:37] <dli> jonah1980, for which package
[12:37] <hivemind> What the... nevermind.
[12:37] <dli> Jack_Smirnoff, sorry, wrong nick
[12:37] <Jack_Smirnoff> Np
[12:37] <arrai> yes, in the live cd environment it is listet, but when i mount my / disk under /mnt/rootdisk and chroot to it, grub can't find it, because it looks in /mnt/rootdisk/dev
[12:37] <jonah1980> dli, got selinux-policy-default.conffiles, selinux-policy-default.list, selinux-policy-default.md5sums, selinux-policy-default.postinst and selinux-policy-default.preinst
[12:37] <maiden30403> Jack_Smirnoff, My repositries still wont work
[12:37] <jonah1980> dli, there all in that info folder
[12:38] <dli> arrai, exit chroot now
[12:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai: I would still download the Super Grub Repair CD.
[12:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> maiden30403: Same error as before..
[12:38] <dli> jonah1980, pastebin your command and error messages
[12:38] <gregg__> ah, the first edgy alpha release is scheduled for tomorrow?

[12:39] <arrai> dli: why?
[12:39] <Seveas> gregg__, sort of. the preparation for it will start tomorrow
[12:39] <SurfnKid> squee, ok let me know iff ya need help
[12:39] <Jack_Smirnoff> What all have you been doing before this problem?
[12:39] <dli> arrai, before you chroot, do, " mount -o bind /dev /mnt/rootdisk/dev ", similar for /proc
[12:39] <squee> SurfnKid will do dont worry!
[12:39] <jonah1980> dli, it does the same error if i try update, install or remove any packages/programs
[12:39] <maiden30403> Jack_Smirnoff, Nothing at all I've been installing apps with it and when I went to use it just a min ago it wouldn't work
[12:39] <cwill2> is there a quick and easy way to set the bin lookup path, preferably for a single shell?
[12:39] <maiden30403> I rebooted but still no joy
[12:39] <Jack_Smirnoff> SurfnKid: WOuld you run through maiden30403 running provesses.  She cant get a file lock to do her upgrade..
[12:40] <arrai> dli: i try...
[12:40] <SurfnKid> Jack_Smirnoff, huh?
[12:40] <arrai> Jack_Smirnoff: could you give me a link to this cd? i can't find it..
[12:40] <Jack_Smirnoff> SurfnKid: maiden30403 has a running process .  She cant get a file lock to do her upgrade..
[12:40] <SurfnKid> oh
[12:41] <i\o> How can I view flash 8 files in linux?
[12:41] <SurfnKid> let me scroll up
[12:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> arrai:  I dont have any links in theis PC.  Google will find it
[12:41] <maiden30403> I'm kinda a guy who likes Iron Maiden but it's all cool
[12:41] <dli> jonah1980, read the package howto, it's probably not a packaging problem, but I don't know selinux
[12:41] <ketetha_> wow ok im back
[12:41] <squee> SurfnKid  should i just type    apt-get upgrade - upgrades all installed packages
[12:41] <SurfnKid> maiden30403, what error do you get?
[12:41] <arrai> Jack_Smirnoff: do you mean the ultimate boot cd?
[12:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> No
[12:41] <cwillu> how do I set an environment var in the current shell, but not for just one command, and not for the entire system?
[12:41] <shigutso> does anybody know a Bandwidth Limiter for Linux? I've already tried Trickle, but it is text-based... and it is very limited... isn't there any... graphical?
[12:42] <bbrazil> cwillu: export var=value
[12:42] <dli> cwillu, you can edit ~/.bashrc
[12:42] <jonah1980> dli, i just don't get it at all though, should selinux even be on my system or has it got on by accident, i can't remove it can i? when i've tried in synaptics it says to remove loads of other things too!?
[12:42] <ramonsa> Hello!
[12:42] <SurfnKid> squee, yes and if when done, Amarok 1.4.1 isnt installed, then just go to Synaptic, find it, upgraded and it should install the package
[12:42] <bbrazil> cwillu: will stick around in the current shell only
[12:42] <cwillu> ahh, thanks :)
[12:42] <bbrazil> jonah1980: it's part of the base install iirc
[12:42] <amat> hi, I need
[12:42] <amat> help
[12:43] <amat> how do you play Tali?
[12:43] <dli> jonah1980, show me the command and error message then
[12:43] <jvai> hey uall, coming from a red hat distro, what do i back up/ copy from it.. to migrate to dapper?
[12:44] <gavagai> your home.  and if you configged a bunch of servers you should get their files in /etc
[12:44] <cwillu> yay!  current directory on the path!
[12:44] <amat> how do you play Tali?
[12:44] <jdmpike> swiftfox is a lot faster than firefox
[12:44] <ketetha_> squee, still workin gon it? oh man that sucks
[12:44] <amat> how do you play Tali?
[12:44] <amat> how do you play Tali?
[12:44] <ketetha_> jdmpike,  is swiftfox in the packages?
[12:44] <gavagai> cwillu, that is probably OK but is certainly unsafe and a sysadmin shouldn't do it
[12:44] <squee> SurfnKid  yup slow computer
[12:44] <ramonsa> Question: one of screensaver programs loks-up my machine (Galaxy). How do I disable just this screensaver?
[12:44] <dli> jvai, /home /etc , backup them for future searching
[12:44] <jdmpike> no, I got it from somewhere else..
[12:44] <squee> SurfnKid  installing now    6 updates
[12:44] <jvai> ty, do i have to "tar' THE /HOME , /ETC, & /VAR?
[12:45] <gavagai> no var
[12:45] <ketetha_> jdmpike, oh i see ok im going to look into that
[12:45] <interfear> I installed the nexus font through synaptic. but when i try to "xterm -fn nexus" it doesnt work
[12:45] <gavagai> taring and zipping is a good way, yeah
[12:45] <gavagai> unless you have a website that is in /var
[12:45] <jdmpike> I didn't think it would make much of a difference, but it does
[12:45] <eternalsword> i'm getting Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server when I try to start firestarter.  any idea what I should do?
[12:45] <SurfnKid> squee, cool, the first update takes a bit, be warned, the update manager from time to time might show up with updates, this is ok, itll just download and install
[12:45] <dli> eternalsword, gksudo firestarter
[12:45] <thejoe> Is there a program (like daemon tools) for ubuntu. I want to mount a cd image. Thanks.
[12:46] <cwillu> gavagai: no, but a developer certainly would when developing a bunch of stuff that tests a module at a time:  thanks, I know what I'm doing :)  (that's why I wanted it for the current shell only
[12:46] <cwillu> )
[12:46] <jvai> ty
[12:46] <dli> thejoe, mount -o loop , but gnome-volume-manager should do it auto
[12:46] <squee> SurfnKid  this is the second time now. Just more updates. They come pretty fast, people somewhere are busy
[12:46] <Cntryboy> I dont remember downloading build-essentials, but when I tried to install it term said I already had it, heres term msg.. http://pastebin.ca/86489 : does this mean I have it, i'm guessing it does but like I said I don't remember dling it
[12:47] <SurfnKid> squee, hehe yea,
[12:47] <tmorrisey> is there a way to tell a program, preferably in a thick sicillian accent, "listen, buddy, fuggedabout the dependecies, you GOTS the dependecies..."
[12:47] <SelfHarm> irc guidelines needs update @ "This one should not eed further explanation,"
[12:47] <ketetha_> http://getswiftfox.com/releases.htm i don tknow what pentium i have or whatever
[12:47] <squee> SurfnKid  is this right? ... installed version on amarok is  2:1.3.9-0ubuntu4
[12:47] <eternalsword> dli, thanks
[12:47] <jonah1980> dli, sorry i don't follow - basically i get that error message whatever i try install or update or remove. if i use synaptic package manager or even the add/remove button i get the same error or terminal - here's an example trying to install inkscape (which is already installed anyway) but still get it: http://pastebin.ca/86469
[12:47] <ketetha_> on my computer it says pentium !!!
[12:47] <jvai> this red hat distro has an ooold looking gnome, i think it's 2.0 proper
[12:48] <cwillu> tmorrisey: which program?
[12:48] <tmorrisey> cwillu, it's this little GPS app made in wxWidgets I found called Roadnav
[12:48] <ketetha_> is there a code you can type in terminal to find out your pentium
[12:48] <cwillu> so not apt-get or something
[12:48] <jonah1980> dli, i don't even know where this selinux thing came from, if i don't need it i don't want it - has everyone got it?
[12:48] <SurfnKid> squee, thast the old one 1.3.9
[12:48] <tc> hi what filesystem does ubuntu use by default?
[12:48] <tmorrisey> cwillu, I have it running on my crappy winbox and it's kind of nice.
[12:48] <squee> SurfnKid  i know but the 2:
[12:48] <SurfnKid> squee, omit that
[12:49] <cwillu> tmorrisey: I don't care what you tell me, if my arm isn't attached to my shoulder, I ain't gonna be able to use it, despite it being in my other hand, or on the shelf in front of me, etc... :p
[12:49] <squee> SurfnKid  does that mean its installed twice
[12:49] <ketetha_> anyone nkow how i can figure out my pentium to get swiftfox
[12:49] <dli> jonah1980, edit the postinst file in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ , return 0 , do: dpkg --configure -a , and dpkg --purge the package right away
[12:49] <SurfnKid> it shouldnt
[12:49] <jenda> How do I install a font?
[12:49] <SurfnKid> what does Synaptic show
[12:49] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, hey i got the Xchat to work :) what broswer thing where you trying to show me
[12:49] <squee> SurfnKid  should i uninstall?
[12:49] <interfear> How do you get cd writing to work in 6.06?

[12:50] <interfear> dli thanks
[12:50] <ketetha_> i should be saying sorry elders
[12:50] <SurfnKid> squee, when it does the 1.3.9 upgrade to 1.4.1 it will automatically replace everything with the latest files no need to do anything :)
[12:50] <Jack_Smirnoff> interfear: I use K3b
[12:50] <tc> what filesystem does ubuntu use by default?
[12:50] <arrai> Jack_Smirnoff: thanks :-)

[12:51] <ketetha_> bye
[12:51] <tmorrisey> cwillu, good point, but it's driving me crazy, I REALLY think I resolved all the dependecies... it INSTALLED fine

[12:54] <jonah1980> dli, sorry! did i type it wrong?
[12:55] <msemtd> NeoChucky: then after a few minutes it drops out to a BusyBox shell
[12:55] <ketetha_> interfear, is that a bad word? or a program name? cause if its a program name funny stuff if its a bad work shame on you :)
[12:55] <tc> is 10GB good for / (my home will most likely be separate)?
[12:55] <polpak> ketetha_, it's an irc client
[12:55] <squee> kethetha_ not really sure. probably not, Ask SurfnKid, he seems to know, only wish he was here to help...would be easier
[12:55] <NeoChucky> wow
[12:55] <ramonsa> Anyone knows how to disable Galaxy screensaver program, just this one. It loks-up my machine (AMD64). Running Ubuntu 6.06
[12:55] <interfear> ketetha_ : ha, its an irc client, google bitchx
[12:55] <SurfnKid> squee, do these two commands    sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade from a VT... make sure you exit Synaptic
[12:55] <col-panic> irssi is a good client
[12:55] <msemtd> NeoChucky: ...after complaining "ALERT! does not exist. Bringing up a shell"
[12:55] <cpare> quick question, I want t connect to my Ubuntu server from my Ubuntu Laptop - other than VNC is there a better option?  I think I can export the X window to the laptop, but I need some assistance
[12:55] <ketetha_> interfear, wow. that is HELLA cool
[12:56] <NeoChucky> msemtd, can cou test if grub boot loader is passing the right "root=/dev/hda1" (or whatever) parameter?
[12:56] <NeoChucky> are you able to boot using an older kernel?
[12:56] <msemtd> yup, all passed fine (accordng to grub shell)
[12:56] <devhen> NeoChucky, do you need to edit your fstab file?
[12:56] <squee> !VT
[12:56] <dli> jonah1980, I doubt you can do it, even though it's just a few simple steps
[12:56] <ubotu> I know nothing about VT - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:56] <jenda> Can anyone point me to an ubuntu logo png or svg?
[12:56] <SurfnKid> !Terminal
[12:56] <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
[12:57] <NeoChucky> devhen, no, I don't. I said hda1 as an example...
[12:57] <ketetha_> i love terminal. its my bestfriend
[12:57] <col-panic> jenda: images.google.com <search> :)
[12:57] <squee> SurfnKid  whats the difference between a terminal and a VT
[12:57] <col-panic> ketetha_: you a big xfce4-terminal fan?
[12:57] <msemtd> I didn't have an older kernel so I booted to Knoppix, chrooted to /dev/hda1 and installed a few older kernels but they al say the same
[12:57] <SurfnKid> squee, same thing, terminology
[12:57] <NeoChucky> msemtd, are you using an unsusual filesystem? (different from ext3)
[12:57] <tristan> hi everyone, I need some help with my tv-out
[12:57] <msemtd> no, ext3
[12:57] <ketetha_> col-panic, que? what kind of terminal is that
[12:57] <jonah1980> dli, i know i'm an idiot and everything - but i have the most awesome respect for you since you fixed my wireless on my laptop while i went to bed! thanks for that
[12:57] <NeoChucky> ok, it's strange
[12:57] <msemtd> simple single big / partition
[12:58] <SurfnKid> squee, ill be right back in 10mins
[12:58] <tmorrisey> oh boy... now another program thinks I don't have gcc
[12:58] <ketetha_> col-panic, is that a different type of terminal? wow i gotta get that
[12:58] <jonah1980> dli, if you can be patient with me then please give me a hand and i'll try!!
[12:58] <squee> SurfnKid  here The following packages have been kept back:
[12:58] <squee>   amarok amarok-engines amarok-xine
[12:58] <col-panic> ketetha_, the one in xfce
[12:58] <devhen> NeoChucky, just wondering. editing fstab solves a lot of people problems when not able to boot ;)
[12:58] <msemtd> I also tried dpkg-reconfigure udev
[12:58] <Jack_Smirnoff> Trinisan: TV out particularly on a laptop is problematic, compounded by most of them being ATI..
[12:58] <ketetha_> SurfnKid, i'll talk to you in tenn!
[12:58] <col-panic> it's like gnome-terminal but reeeal light resource
[12:58] <tristan> not on a laptop
[12:58] <col-panic> pretty snappy like rxvt but much more useful
[12:58] <NeoChucky> but, you said that you updated Ubuntu, isn't it?
[12:58] <tristan> ati 9000 on a desktop
[12:58] <dli> jonah1980, look what did you type there: sudo dpkg --configure -a , and dpkg --purge
[12:59] <NeoChucky> wasn't there an older kernel?
[12:59] <jonah1980> dli, ah sorry - i misread, been a long day!!
[12:59] <Jack_Smirnoff> Trinisan:  you went through all the steps on setting up ATI's?
[12:59] <dli> jonah1980, okay, if you can set up ssh-server again, let me log in again, and fix it for you
[12:59] <col-panic> apt-get install xfce4-terminal <--- a very useful addition :)
[12:59] <devhen> gotta reboot ;) ...
[12:59] <chris08> hi folks
[12:59] <NeoChucky> where did your older kernel go to?
[12:59] <tristan> yea
[12:59] <jonah1980> ok here's the first one: http://pastebin.ca/86500
[12:59] <msemtd> No, the last thing I did before hitting this thing was to remove the half-dozen or so old kernels!
[01:00] <msemtd> I was just tidying up!
[01:00] <Jack_Smirnoff> WHy dont people make a backup of their entire system once they get it tweaked and running well.
[01:00] <tristan> but when I connect the tv, the monitor display gets very bright
[01:00] <chris08> yesterdays kernel update broke vmware-player. anybody know how to get it working again?
[01:00] <NeoChucky> argh! and you didn't keep the last good kernel, isn't it?
[01:00] <msemtd> yup!
[01:00] <jonah1980> dli, can i just type it correct instead hehe?
[01:00] <msemtd> And BTW: I have a full backup - I just can't boot it!
[01:01] <dli> jonah1980, you need to edit the postinst file first, add a line of "return 0" at the very beginning
[01:01] <jonah1980> ok so do i open it up with gedit?
[01:01] <col-panic> Jack_Smirnoff, I have a separate partition on my system just for that.
[01:01] <malin> do i need to reboot after installing fonts?
[01:01] <Jack_Smirnoff> If you cant use it to restore and you cant boot to it then what type of a backup is it>?
[01:01] <Jack_Smirnoff> col-panic: So do I
[01:01] <msemtd> it's the data
[01:02] <malin> i installed msttcorefonts and i don't see them (i'm playing with terminal fonts)
[01:02] <NeoChucky> have you tried to boot Knoppix, mount /, chroot to it and then execute "update-grub" or "grub-install"?
[01:02] <msemtd> ...plus  /etc
[01:02] <col-panic> i have puppy linux on that partition, which is like 150m but I dont use it on this box hehe
[01:02] <Jack_Smirnoff> THen it isnt a full backup of the running system
[01:02] <chris08> I installe dthe kernel headers and manually reinstalled it (modules build and load ok) - but when I start it I get sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0
[01:02] <chris08> sudo mv libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1.disabled
[01:02] <chris08> sudo ln -sf /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1
[01:02] <eternalsword> anyone know how to allow a program to overlap gnome-panels?
[01:02] <msemtd> yes - it aint grub - grub's just fine - it'll do whatever I ask of it
[01:02] <chris08> srry
[01:03] <jonah1980> dli, ok got the postinst file open, do i just add it in there right at the top?
[01:03] <chris08> /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmplayer: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
[01:03] <NeoChucky> hmmm
[01:03] <dli> jonah1980, should work, better to add after "#!/bin/sh" line
[01:03] <msemtd> Jack_Smirnoff: yeah, you're right (hangs head in shame) :)
[01:03] <NeoChucky> once busybox is booted, are you able to "ls /dev"?
[01:04] <msemtd> yes, /dev has what's expected
[01:04] <NeoChucky> are there the proper /dev/hdX or /dev/sdX needed for the root filesystem?
[01:04] <jonah1980> dli, thnks, like this: http://pastebin.ca/86504
[01:04] <msemtd> yes, it's all there - I can chroot to it - it has a few issues - /proc and /dev need remounting but it works
[01:04] <Xyloc> I just killed my grub-config by resizing my partitions, the kernel boots, but grub can't find /root or /dev/.static
[01:05] <jjez> Hm, how do I install aMSN? Can't find it in Synaptic Package Manager, and I don't know how to 'open' the .deb-file I downloaded from their homepage
[01:05] <Xyloc> Does anyone know how to fix that?
[01:05] <dooglus> I'm trying to use 'vncserver' to allow me to connect to my laptop remotely, but when I run the viewer, all I see is a grey screen - no window manager, panels, or anything else.  how can I get vncserver to start GNOME or XFCE or, well, anything when I connect to it?
[01:05] <dli> jonah1980, yes
[01:05] <NeoChucky> try to boot from knoppix and change the root fs from ext3 to ext2
[01:05] <chris08> jjez aMSN is in automatix
[01:05] <msemtd> NeoChucky: why?
[01:05] <NeoChucky> maybe the new kernel lacks ext3 support
[01:06] <jonah1980> dli, thanks a lot. ok so now do i do the purge line?
[01:06] <rebelfallen> Does a tool exist that allows the system to auto configure hardware? I use an external HD and the hardware changes frequently and I don't want to change manually every time
[01:06] <NeoChucky> but does has ext2 one
[01:06] <SelfHarm> is there an application that gives stats on your desktop. something like coolmon (http://www.coolmon.org/home/screenshots.php) that is popular ?
[01:06] <dli> jonah1980, dpkg --configure -a
[01:06] <jjez> chris08: and whats that? I haven't used linux for 3 years now. and this is the first time I'm using ubuntu :)
[01:06] <msemtd> NeoChucky: what makes you think that?
[01:07] <NeoChucky> i'm not sure, but it has saved me more than once with other linux distros, older than ubuntu
[01:07] <StarkMjolk> hmm... anyone knows a good reason for why gdm would chunck out on constant 30% CPU load?
[01:07] <dli> jonah1980, then: dpkg --purge --force-all selinux-policy-default
[01:07] <lasindi_lcps> Hi all, I believe my MBR is corrupted on my hard drive, since it won't boot at all and my Ubuntu partitions are still there. I'm guessing the way to fix this is to reinstall GRUB. Am I right, and if so, how can I do this?
[01:07] <jonah1980> dli, http://pastebin.ca/86506
[01:07] <chris08> jjez: it's a script that vastly improves the 'desktop usability' of ubuntu :)
[01:07] <chris08> http://tazforum.thetazzone.com/viewtopic.php?t=2189
[01:07] <chris08> follow this guide
[01:07] <jjez> <3
[01:07] <jjez> thanks alot :)
[01:07] <Xyloc> Does grub link to absolute HDD addresses associated with files?
[01:07] <msemtd> I'm pretty sure it's a udev problem - it's well reported but none of the solutions are working for me
[01:07] <chris08> welcome ;)
[01:07] <NeoChucky> i've compiled kernels some times and forgotten ext3 support (or put it as a module)
[01:08] <NeoChucky> ah, ok
[01:08] <dli> jonah1980, sorry, my bad, just " exit ", no need to " return 0"
[01:08] <NeoChucky> if you're sure about udev... may be that
[01:08] <jonah1980> dli, so remove the return 0 and just put "exit" there instead?
[01:09] <dli> jonah1980, yes
[01:09] <krism> anybody have advice on Xinerama seemingly breaking opengl? with xinerama enabled, opengl apps crash on startup. without it, they run fine (but i'm left with three seperate sessions :)

[01:09] <squee> SurfnKid  you back yet?

[01:11] <rgg> hello,I try to gunzip a .zip file and i receive the error message "unknown suffix -- ignored"
[01:11] <dli> jme, signal too weak :(
[01:11] <rgg> what can I do to...unzip it?
[01:11] <NeoChucky> rgg, you can't gunzip a zip file
[01:11] <NeoChucky> gzip is not the same as zip
[01:11] <jme> dli, it's not a signal issue, when the card suddenly dies, and looking at the properties makes it work again
[01:12] <dli> jonah1980, then, apt works normally now
[01:12] <NeoChucky> rgg, "zip -x file.zip", i think...
[01:12] <rgg> NeoChucky: well,i tried it cause i read it on a website but thanks
[01:12] <rgg> i'm gonna try that
[01:12] <SurfnKid> squee, back
[01:12] <squee> SurfnKid  cool
[01:12] <NeoChucky> rgg, more info typing: "man unzip"
[01:13] <NeoChucky> ...if you want. ;-)
[01:13] <squee> SurfnKid  The following packages have been kept back:  amarok amarok-engines amarok-xine
[01:13] <SurfnKid> squee, loaded with updates now? hehe
[01:13] <SurfnKid> squee, perfect!
[01:13] <jonah1980> dli, cool that seems to have done it. once again you're the man - how did you learn all this stuff dude? did you study properly or can you pick this stuff on the net??
[01:13] <SurfnKid> go to Synaptic
[01:13] <squee> SurfnKid  really?
[01:13] <SurfnKid> they will show up there
[01:13] <squee> SurfnKid  looks shi*t to me
[01:13] <SurfnKid> hehe
[01:13] <SurfnKid> squee, its cuz you gotta do the upgrade from there
[01:13] <dli> jonah1980, read the howto
[01:14] <mby> Do you know any Flash (swf) editors for gnome, because all I had found are for kde :/
[01:14] <dli> jonah1980, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/
[01:14] <tristan> Can anyone help me? when I bootup, right before the grub menu is suppose to come up, I get a blank screen and its just says "GRUB_" on the top and it just hangs there.
[01:14] <squee> SurfnKid  ok then...can you talk me thru it?
[01:14] <tmorrisey> Do some source files expect gcc 3.x, and ./configure won't run properly if you have a 4.x version?
[01:14] <Xyloc> Is there any way to reinitialize GRUB, forcing it to find all the partitions again and the associated OS's?
[01:14] <dli> jonah1980, however, if your problem is from a package within dapper, you may file a bug report
[01:14] <SurfnKid> squee, sure, open Synaptic and search Amarok
[01:15] <SurfnKid> Xyloc, update-grub  i believe
[01:15] <rgg> NeoChucky: thank you
[01:15] <rgg> NeoChucky: the command is zip filename.zip -x
[01:15] <jjez> chris08: sorry to bother you again but, I got this message when I tried "sudo apt-get update" : http://pastebin.ca/86512
[01:15] <Xyloc> SurfnKid: Is that in /sbin?
[01:15] <NeoChucky> there is also "unzip"
[01:15] <squee> SurfnKid  ypu
[01:15] <NeoChucky> rgg, no, no
[01:15] <snoops> is there anyway at all that I could use freenx (and nomachines nx client) to connect to current x sessions, not new ones?
[01:15] <squee> SurfnKid  yup
[01:16] <col-panic> Question: how do I upgrade breezy to dapper through synaptic? *is curious*
[01:16] <rgg> NeoChucky: yes it is,i just unzipped the file doing that
[01:16] <NeoChucky> the command is "zip -x filename.zip"
[01:16] <jjez> nevermind, think I solved it.
[01:16] <jjez> :D
[01:16] <SurfnKid> Xyloc, update-grub?  nah just in a VT
[01:16] <higen> jjez: hehe.. i was about to answer rude

[01:29] <Luke> Someone people help me figure out what is wrong with my mouse
[01:29] <Luke> I've rebooted and now my mouse is extremely choppy and slow. The rest of my computer runs at normal speed though. Any ideas how to fix this?

[01:35] <docta_v> is it possible to install ubuntu on a headless node... purely over ssh?
[01:35] <docta_v> or does anyone have recommendations for a linux distro that can be installed easily in such a way
[01:35] <Zoolie> hello all....after a fresh reboot i have max 250mb ram of my 1gb........with ubuntu.....is this correct?
[01:36] <_RocH> docta_v, dsl can be installed this way for sure
[01:36] <AssCandy> hello everyone caould somone help me out
[01:36] <chris08> Jeruvy: start your win32 apps ;) from the shell - wine will dump the debug messages to the terminal and with a little luck you can see what the problem is
[01:36] <docta_v> _RocH: thx
[01:36] <RawSewage> do we already have inotify ?
[01:36] <AssCandy> i have a really quik question
[01:36] <Jeruvy> chris08: I couldn't get wine to build for me, I should try an rpm...
[01:37] <RawSewage> I was here first, Pal
[01:37] <_RocH> ctkroeker, U should manually stop samba, remowe it's initialization in rc's , and try again
[01:37] <rebelfallen> Does a tool exist that allows the system to auto configure hardware? I use an external HD and the hardware changes frequently and I don't want to change manually every time
[01:37] <slueters> test
[01:38] <chris08> Jeruvy: I used the wine that came with automatix
[01:38] <AssCandy> i currently have windows installed i was wondering if i could install ubuntu and leave my windows intact and still beable to boot either or
[01:38] <RawSewage> inotify has been included in the upstream kernel tree as of 2.6.13, so if you are running it or newer, you don't need to do anything to get inotify support.
[01:38] <RawSewage> Does that mean I have it already
[01:38] <jonas-irc> AssCandy, that possible
[01:38] <jonas-irc> thats
[01:38] <Zoolie> 	hello all....after a fresh reboot i have max 250mb ram of my 1gb........with ubuntu.....is this correct?
[01:38] <RawSewage> AssCandy, people dual-boot all the time
[01:38] <ctkroeker> I stopped samba but got the same problem
[01:39] <col-panic> quick question: windows media 9/10 files wont play with xine, what's the package name I need?
[01:39] <AssCandy> how would i go about doing it and not affecting my current windows install i tried the other day then when i went to boot windows it wouldent work
[01:39] <jonas-irc> AssCandy, with the newest ubuntu live cd, you can run an ubuntu session without doing anything to your XP installation
[01:40] <Carrigan> Can anyone help me with getting Eye Candy for dapper?
[01:40] <AssCandy> but its to slow i dont wanna run from a live cd
[01:40] <RawSewage> "inotify has been included in the upstream kernel tree as of 2.6.13, so if you are running it or newer, you don't need to do anything to get inotify support."  <[01:40] <jonas-irc> col-panic, you cant play wmv3 in linux because microsoft havent released their code for this wmv version
[01:40] <_RocH> Carrigan, search for xgl on forums ;)
[01:40] <Zoolie> Carrigan : gnome-look.org
[01:40] <RawSewage> I have helped 10 people and asked this question 100 times
[01:40] <RawSewage> answer please
[01:40] <col-panic> i played those kinda files on puppy linux, in gxine..
[01:41] <_RocH> win32codecs
[01:41] <Carrigan> I tried but it says to alter a file and it wouldnt let me save the changes to it
[01:41] <jonas-irc> col-panic,  you have dapper right?
[01:41] <AssCandy> ?
[01:41] <col-panic> uh no I have breezy
[01:42] <Carrigan> It wants you to add a line to etc/apt/sources.list
[01:42] <col-panic> and puppy on a seperate partition, and all my wmv video (must be 2 or 3) works perfect
[01:42] <RawSewage> Thanks , everyone.  YOuve all been so kind and helpful
[01:42] <docta_v> _RocH: fyi, http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hd_Install_Without_a_Monitor_HowTo
[01:42] <polpak> RawSewage, from what the comment says if you are running 2.6.13 or newer you have it
[01:42] <chris08> col-panic: get win32codecs
[01:42] <mzoli> hi! i'm looking for a list where windows, gnome and kde applications are compared in a table. e.g. "IE, epiphany, konqueror". i know there is a list like this but where?
[01:42] <TiG4> *-- Is anyone here fairly familiar with Excel Formulas?   What would this mean? P14 * ($H$17 + $J$17) , I'm not sure what the '$'s do --*
[01:42] <col-panic> thats the apt name? ty
[01:42] <jonas-irc> col-panic, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[01:42] <jonas-irc> install these
[01:42] <polpak> !ubuntuguide
[01:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntuguide - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[01:43] <col-panic> tyvm jonas-irc  and chris08
[01:43] <polpak> jonas-irc, ubuntuguide is not recommended. col-panic you should follow the restricted formats wiki
[01:43] <polpak> !restricted > col-panic
[01:43] <Zoolie> 	hello all....after a fresh reboot i have max 250mb ram of my 1gb........with ubuntu.....is this correct?
[01:43] <jonas-irc> col-panic, add UNIVERSE AND MULTIVERSE REPOSITORY
[01:43] <AssCandy> so how would i go about installing ubuntu and leaving my windows instact and both linux and windows bootable
[01:43] <chris08> col-panic: you might as well try  automatix
[01:43] <col-panic> jonas-irc, I did that like a month ago

[01:44] <Kirk> I am looking for someone knowledgable on using the "apt-get" context.  If you think you can help, tell me here, and I will send you a private message, since this channel looks clogged.  Thanks.
[01:44] <petit_> hello - it's the first time that I install ubuntu and I don't have open gl support, anyone can point the things that I should be looking at?
[01:44] <col-panic> "sudo apt-get install w32codecs" thats what I asked, and I got 10 different answers.
[01:44] <col-panic> ty
[01:44] <polpak> !justask

[01:48] <XrekcaH> *** How Do Print To A Network Printer?
[01:48] <jonas-irc> XrekcaH, have you installed samba?
[01:48] <Asaga> I just installed ubuntu, and i dont like the partition size, my windows partition gets almost no free space
[01:48] <XrekcaH> yes
[01:48] <Asaga> can i wipe the linux partition and givei t back to windows?
[01:49] <r0bby> yeh it'll wipe out your install
[01:49] <jonas-irc> Asaga, sudo apt-get install gparted will install a partition manager
[01:49] <sal_> how do i see whether im behind a firewall or not, i want to use bittorrent, and you see im using internet, so ho comes, it wont download anything at all, my internet works fine, i can download other files, but the torrent servers...
[01:49] <Asaga> gparted?
[01:49] <Asaga> okay
[01:49] <Asaga> thank you
[01:50] <jonas-irc> your'e welcome
[01:50] <chris08> Asaga: be careful with the mbr of your drive - if you kill uuntu and installed grub, your windows will not boot...
[01:50] <debian_dc> i installed the updates yesterday and now a pile of gnome stuff (er gtk stuff i guess) renders letters as blocks that look like [] , any ideas on a possible solution? im not sure which package updates were the ones that went out yesterday
[01:50] <Asaga> wait wait wait
[01:50] <r0bby> sal_, do you connect to a router or is your modem plugged in directly to your computer?
[01:50] <Asaga> what?
[01:50] <Asaga> how do i know if i installed grub
[01:50] <XrekcaH> Jonas-irc, yes
[01:50] <Asaga> does it come as an ubuntu standard?
[01:50] <pschulz01> Is anyone else seeing problems with installing/upgrading the samba package in dapper?
[01:50] <Kirk> I am looking to use the "sudo apt-get install" context to install several applications.  I want to install the latest versions of postfix, proftpd, apache, courier pop3, courier imap, bind9, mysql, and iptables.  I have talked to a few people about this, and they all give me contexts that make sense, but do not work.  Please give me an exact context for each, or at least the package names I need to install.  Thanks!  Keep in mind, my primary problem is finding p
[01:50] <sal_> i think its a rouiter, cause im using a lan network
[01:50] <pschulz01> !samba
[01:50] <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
[01:50] <r0bby> you're behind a router then
[01:50] <sal_> yes..
[01:50] <Kirk> !apt-get
[01:50] <r0bby> s/router/firewall/
[01:50] <ubotu> apt is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowto - also see !synaptic (gnome) or !adept (kde)
[01:50] <docta_v> Kirk: why not use a gui?
[01:50] <jarrod06> sal_, type 192.168.1.1 into your web browser, does it ask for a password?
[01:51] <r0bby> you're behind a firewall then
[01:51] <malin> Kirk: use apt-cache search to search packages
[01:51] <Kirk> Because the server I want to run it on has problems with the GUI.  Mainly, the menus ghost over the windows.  It's not exactly a top of the line machine.
[01:51] <Kirk> Ah, one moment.
[01:51] <jonas-irc> XrekcaH, then you go to System->Administrating->printing and install one just like in windows
[01:51] <sal_> yes
[01:51] <sal_> its says FRITZ Box
[01:51] <Asaga> oh, gparted is a linux program
[01:51] <r0bby> then your question is answered
[01:51] <Asaga> right now i'm on Windows
[01:51] <jonas-irc> okey
[01:51] <Asaga> is there a similer program for windows?
[01:51] <jarrod06> youre behind a router sal_
[01:51] <Kirk> Ahh!  Thank you malin.  That helps.  :)
[01:51] <sal_> mist
[01:51] <pschulz01> I had an issue with the auto updates (didn't work).. neede to 'rm /etc/rc3.d/K09samba' to get package to upgrade.
[01:51] <malin> Asaga: Partition manager
[01:51] <jonas-irc> Asaga, partition magic
[01:52] <r0bby> which means you're behind a firewall
[01:52] <Asaga> thanks
[01:52] <malin> Kirk: no problem :-)
[01:52] <Kirk> I'll stick on this channel for now, in case I need anything else.
[01:52] <sal_> so i ask the admin of the network right?
[01:52] <chris08> sal_: open a teminal type ifconfig
[01:52] <malin> Asaga: but this is a commercial software
[01:52] <r0bby> who is the admin?
[01:52] <Asaga> so with the partition managaer i can take the linux partiton and combine it with my NFTS partition?
[01:52] <sal_> ok
[01:52] <r0bby> WAIT
[01:52] <jonas-irc> Asaga, http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/system_performance/pm80/index.html
[01:52] <Asaga> along with my windows?
[01:52] <r0bby> is this YOUR router?
[01:52] <sal_> yes
[01:52] <r0bby> like do you know the password?
[01:52] <malin> Asaga: rather yes
[01:52] <sal_> i mean im paying the bill
[01:52] <r0bby> the firewall is yours
[01:53] <chris08> sal:_ if it says 84.156.65.215 somewhere, you are directly connected to the net. if not you are behind a firewall/router
[01:53] <Lord-ChewY> anyone know what i have to put in fstab to browse an ntfs drive?
[01:53] <r0bby> go refer to your user manual for your router and look for info on opening ports up
[01:53] <loststar4545> how do i use a .run file
[01:53] <jarrod06> sal_ the router has a default password
[01:53] <r0bby> (port forwarding)
[01:53] <jarrod06> whats the make and model
[01:53] <sal_> gosh it goes so quick
[01:53] <unstablesob> loststar4545: chmod +x file.run ; sh ./file.run
[01:53] <pschulz01> Samba also reports errors when installed 'Ignoring badly formed line in configuration file:'
[01:53] <eltech> any suggestions for a sftp gui app?
[01:53] <chris08> the fritz box doesn"t  have a default pw
[01:53] <eltech> like winscp?
[01:53] <jonas-irc> loststar4545, first you need to make it runable by typing sudo +x name of file
[01:53] <sh4dox> dudes
[01:53] <jonas-irc> then you type ./nameoffile.run
[01:53] <sal_> @ lord chew: where should it say that?
[01:54] <Lord-ChewY> anyone? what command do i use with mount to read an ntfs partition?
[01:54] <sh4dox> can someone tell me what i need to change, everytime i go to my windows, there seems to be a difference in time of about 2 hours
[01:54] <chris08> sal_: type http://192.168.178.1 in your browser to get to the admin interface of your fritzbox. from there you can forward the ports for bittorrent
[01:55] <sal_> hi chris, it needs a password.
[01:55] <Lord-ChewY> mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /blabla/bla doesn't work
[01:55] <Carrigan> Can anyone tell me how to get permissions to save over etc/apt/sources.list?
[01:55] <r0bby> the default password is admin
[01:55] <sh4dox> Lord-ChewY: hold on
[01:55] <r0bby> default username sometimes is also admin
[01:55] <jonas-irc> Carrigan, type sudo first
[01:55] <Kirk> OK this will work!  Thanks guys.  I'll be back here.  You just recruited a Ubuntu noob into the world of Ubuntu!
[01:55] <Kirk> :)
[01:55] <r0bby> try w/o a username
[01:55] <Kirk> bbl
[01:55] <jonas-irc> Carrigan, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:55] <Carrigan> thank you
[01:55] <Lord-ChewY> sh4dox i think it is a umask
[01:55] <eltech> nvm, gFTP does it
[01:55] <eltech> good deal
[01:55] <chris08> Lord-ChewY: /dev/hda5       /media/data     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0
[01:56] <sh4dox> Lord-ChewY:  no no hold on, i'll search wiki
[01:56] <chris08> sal_: enter the pw the person who installed the fritzbox set...
[01:57] <sh4dox> Lord-ChewY: try this in your terminal "wget http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter"  that should do the trick (at least it worked for me)
[01:57] <chris08> sal_: my fritzbox didn't come with a preconfigured pw
[01:58] <sal_> Die Benutzeroberflche der FRITZ!Box wurde mit einem Kennwort geschtzt. Melden Sie sich mit dem Kennwort der FRITZ!Box an, um auf die Einstellungen und Informationen Ihrer Anlage zuzugreifen.

[01:58] <sal_> FEHLER: Das angegebene Kennwort ist ungltig.
[01:59] <jarrod06> um we dont speak german here
[01:59] <sal_> so i think i have to ask the guy who installed the router, right?
[01:59] <jarrod06> sal_ you could do a hard reset
[01:59] <chris08> sal_: Wenn Sie Ihr Kennwort vergessen haben, klicken Sie hier. <<--- Do it
[01:59] <sal_> gosh, the 10 minute matter?
[01:59] <petit_> great, seems like ogl works now :) thanks
[01:59] <sal_> but the other users would be involved wouldnt they?

[02:02] <sal_> ok, but i think i m gonna ask him. but thanks so far, its a pleasure for me to be an ubuntu with you!
[02:02] <chris08> sal_: you will lose your dial-up settings...do not do that unless you know your t-online account username and pw...you have to reenter those after the reset
[02:02] <sal_> chris_yes i think the same.
[02:02] <teknoprep> jonas-irc: no i am trying to download aim for linux
[02:03] <sal_> so im for sure behind a firewall, is it?
[02:03] <Blv3Watyr> aim? gaim gives all networks
[02:03] <eegore|> it should
[02:03] <chris08> ok gotta catch some sleep - take care everybody
[02:03] <sal_> good night+
[02:03] <Blv3Watyr> cya
[02:03] <jonas-irc> good bye
[02:04] <tailsfan> Is ther a program that you can install that'll install files like Kompile does for GNOME
[02:04] <petit_> hmmm, can I find Arial.ttf in one of the package?
[02:05] <geeksauce> every time i boot ubuntu, the clock is way off.  then when i boot into windows, the clock is set relative to whatever ubuntu last set it to.  my bios battery is fine, and it only happens when i boot into linux.  what's going on?
[02:05] <Fiorell> wrongt timezone?
[02:05] <unstablesob> petit_: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[02:06] <NthDegree> geeksauce i encounter the same thing
[02:06] <NthDegree> it can be solved by making use of ntp
[02:06] <NthDegree> just like windows does
[02:06] <geeksauce> Fiorell, nope...set to correct timezone
[02:06] <NthDegree> geeksauce use ntp :)
[02:06] <Luke> BenC: You around?
[02:07] <nevyn> geeksauce: way off like your TZ off?
[02:07] <tailsfan> Anyone Is there a installation program like GDebi Package Installer for tar files?
[02:07] <wims_> how do i permanently disable update of some packages when i use update manager? I have a custom kernel that gets broken if ubuntu updates the kernel packages
[02:07] <geeksauce> how?  is that anything like the UTC option i see on the clock?
[02:07] <NthDegree> you can find it when you alter date and time in ubuntu, geeksauce
[02:07] <nevyn> wims_: use kernel-package and hold your custom kernel package
[02:08] <ketetha_> HII im listening to laffy taffy and its fun. now im back
[02:08] <NthDegree> periodically synchronize clock with internet servers <--- check that box
[02:08] <nevyn> wims_: or just remove linux-image-{arch}
[02:08] <geeksauce> nevyn, yeah the minutes are correct but the hour is off
[02:08] <ketetha_> da da duh da da duh. anyone need helpp
[02:08] <BenC> Luke: yeah
[02:08] <jonas-irc> geeksauce, then you probably need to set the correct timezone
[02:08] <tailsfan> I do ketetha
[02:09] <ketetha_> tailsfun, with what?
[02:09] <Luke> BenC: i've got a few questions
[02:09] <NthDegree> geeksauce try utc in that case
[02:09] <tailsfan> I'm looking for a program that acts like GDebi Packager Installer but can install tar.gz and other tar formats
[02:09] <nevyn> geeksauce: windows doesn't know about timezone's properly
[02:09] <Luke> BenC: first of all. I submitted a bug report about the IO-APIC timer being broken. I'm supposed to add noapic to lilo but it boots through some mac thing. Do you have any more direction for me to follow?
[02:10] <ketetha_> tailsfan, wow that would be useful. hmm have you googled?
[02:10] <tailsfan> Not Yet
[02:10] <ketetha_> is there one like that for synaptic?
[02:10] <jrib> tailsfan: tar.gz is generally source code, so it would have to be compiled
[02:10] <eXCeSS> !coreduo
[02:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about coreduo - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:10] <ketetha_> tailsfan, i'll google
[02:10] <eXCeSS> !dualcore
[02:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about dualcore - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:10] <Carrigan> I'm on step 3 of a tutorial, can anyone tell me how to make "~/.Xsession"
[02:10] <tailsfan> IDK
[02:10] <geeksauce> hmm, i enabled UTC and it immediately displayed the correct time.  thanks NthDegree
[02:10] <ketetha_> !package
[02:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about package - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:10] <ketetha_> !packages
[02:10] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com  -  Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[02:11] <eXCeSS> !dpkg
[02:11] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[02:11] <tailsfan> jrib, then is there a auto-compiler
[02:11] <ketetha_> tailsfan, haha good questionn! that would be usefull too!
[02:11] <jrib> tailsfan: not that I know of, is there a particular program you are after?
[02:11] <geeksauce> now, can anyone tell me why the new release of x-chat doesn't have auto-copy?
[02:11] <ketetha_> im either gonna be a cardiologist or get into computer science and softwars and stuff
[02:12] <ketetha_> geeksauce, what do you mean by auto-copy?
[02:12] <NthDegree> as in when you highlight chat it goes to clipboard automatically
[02:12] <ketetha_> djhedges, nice name :)
[02:12] <Sleeping_Sloth> hello - is anyone in here running dual processors?
[02:12] <dibblego> I cleaned my keyboard and Nautilus popped up with the "Garbage Bin" - which key(s) did I press?
[02:12] <ketetha_> NthDegree geeksauce , ohh i see. never heard of one but maybe
[02:13] <Carrigan> Can someone tell me how to create the file "~/.Xsession"?
[02:13] <tailsfan> Nah
[02:13] <geeksauce> ketetha_ : i used to highlight text or a nick or url or anything within x-chat and it would automatically be copied to the clipboard
[02:13] <vy2wu>  /quit
[02:13] <tailsfan> I'm already dling enlightment
[02:13] <djhedges> touch ~/.Xession
[02:13] <dibblego> Carrigan, touch ~/.Xsession
[02:13] <Carrigan> thanks
[02:14] <dao777> clever
[02:14] <digitalhav0c> ohla
[02:14] <digitalhav0c> amigos
[02:14] <geeksauce> is there a better irc client for *nix than x-chat?
[02:14] <dao777> finally figured out language-pack-en-base was not installed
[02:14] <Carrigan> When i try opening it in Gedit it says "cannot open display: (null)"...any suggestions?
[02:14] <dao777> geeksauce: irssi in screen :)
[02:14] <ketetha_> geeksauce, it doesnt that with a double click
[02:15] <digitalhav0c> yeah agree with geeksauce
[02:15] <digitalhav0c> irssi in eterm transparent on your desktop
[02:15] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, just double click a word.
[02:15] <tailsfan> Konversation
[02:15] <digitalhav0c> :)
[02:15] <ketetha_> what is irssi?
[02:15] <jrib> geeksauce: I second irssi
[02:15] <ketetha_> jrib, what is irssi
[02:15] <djhedges> carraige u logged in as root?
[02:15] <Carrigan> yes
[02:15] <djhedges> logout of root
[02:16] <djhedges> sudo it
[02:16] <dao777> gooooooooooooooooooooooogle
[02:16] <Jamo> how do I give write permissions to group by default - to every file created in a particular folder?
[02:16] <digitalhav0c> ketetha_, what do yo mean double click a word?
[02:16] <geeksauce> jrib: is it in the repos?
[02:16] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, ok tak emy words here. double click words. like between the r and the o doulb eclick it
[02:16] <jrib> ketetha_: a text irc client - www.irssi.org/
[02:16] <nevyn> Jamo: you need to use extended permissions
[02:16] <nevyn> to override the umask
[02:16] <dao777> i'll bet if you type "irssi ubuntu" into google, you can figure all this out
[02:16] <Carrigan> ok
[02:16] <jrib> geeksauce: yes, I believe it's installed by default actually
[02:16] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, then press ctrl + v it will paste
[02:16] <dao777> jrib: true
[02:16] <djhedges> jamo i think u can do chmod g+s
 digitalhav0c, ok tak emy words here. double click words. like between the r and the o doulb eclick it
[02:16] <digitalhav0c> i new that
[02:16] <digitalhav0c> thanks
[02:17] <dao777> geeksauce: it is text-based, if that ends your search prematurely
[02:17] <digitalhav0c> no i didn't
[02:17] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, haha :) isnt that kind of the same as autocopy
[02:17] <digitalhav0c> ctl c ctl v i new though
[02:17] <geeksauce> jrib, i like something that isn't so much text-based, so yeah
[02:17] <digitalhav0c> pretty cool thanks ketetha_
[02:17] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, ohh ya that ctrl thing everyone should know! your welcomee :)
[02:18] <dao777> but wow. ubuntu should _really_ have installed language-pack-en-base by default. that, or another language. but some language!
[02:18] <digitalhav0c> for real
[02:18] <jrib> geeksauce: oh, you are missing out :)  other than konversation, I've seen someone here swear by kvirc
[02:18] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, NO! not for real
[02:18] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, fo sho
[02:18] <nevyn> irssi for the win
 digitalhav0c, fo sho

[02:18] <hbweb500> Can I run 32 bit Dapper w/ Firefox and plugins and everything on a 64 bit AMD, or do I need the 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
[02:18] <dao777> sweet thing about irssi under screen is you can be on forEVER
[02:18] <geeksauce> jrib, so do you reccommend kvirc over x-chat?
[02:18] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, you've officially been gangstered out by the whitest black girl you will EVER know :)

[02:22] <ketetha_> soniccol, yay :) hehe thats good. okk shooot whats your question?
[02:23] <Jamo> could anyone help me figure out how to install sun-java5-jdk, I've read the most obvious tid bits on google with no avail, please msg me if you can help so we don't clutter this chat even more
[02:23] <goblimey> rredd4, i had the same prob and just used synaptic until update manager decided to work again, if that helps
[02:23] <soniccol> ketetha_: I use wireless network in my home
[02:23] <digitalhav0c> devhen, ok cool
[02:23] <djhedges> try automatix jamo
[02:23] <digitalhav0c> ketetha_, how?
[02:23] <MrProg> is there a place where you can download grub?????????

[02:23] <digitalhav0c> im using xchat
[02:23] <soniccol> ketetha_: when I in windows , the speed is normal
[02:23] <digitalhav0c> right now
[02:23] <mike-x2> jrib:no packets found
[02:23] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, ok see my lovely name ketetha_ down there next to #ubuntu right click and click detach tab
[02:24] <devhen> MrProg: sudo apt-get install grub but its probably already installed if your system is running
[02:24] <geeksauce> i used to like x-chat until they took out auto-copy, lol
[02:24] <SurfnKid> MrProg,  one ? is fine
[02:24] <soniccol> ketetha_: but in ubuntu linux , the speed suddenlly slow , and suddenlly becom normal
[02:24] <jrib> mike-x2: you'll need to enable multiverse, the bot will send you some info
[02:24] <ketetha_> soniccol, and its not when you get to linux? hmm. well i dont know what to tell you
[02:24] <jrib> !multiverse > mike-x2
[02:24] <rredd4> goblimey  until it works again, which is ??  kernel problem or update manager problem, or x?
[02:24] <MrProg> Ummmm..... im on ubuntu now
[02:24] <MrProg> therrs no menu that can get me to grub
[02:25] <mike-x2> jrib: cant remember if i changed it over 2 secs
[02:25] <Kirk> Hello.
[02:25] <Kirk> I have one more question.
[02:25] <jrib> mike-x2: what do you mean?
[02:25] <tmorrisey> Is there a way to tell apt-get to check the Debian distributions as well??
[02:25] <Kirk> I'm concerned.  After using apt-get install to install things such as Apache2, PHP5... do I have to edit anything to make them work later, or will they automatically be turned on after rebooting?
[02:25] <soniccol> ketetha_: my network speed just not as fast as it in windows , in ubuntu linux , it is pretty slow...
[02:26] <MrProg> maybe you have an unsupported adapter?
[02:26] <djhedges> it should install a script in init.d kirk
[02:26] <djhedges> it'll load at boot
[02:26] <soniccol> ketetha_: somebody told me to check /etc/resolve.conf
[02:26] <Kirk> What is the context for said script?  Or will it make itself after using apt-get install?
[02:26] <Madpilot> Kirk, apache should start when the system does from now on
[02:26] <devhen> !grub > MrProg
[02:26] <Kirk> And PHP and everything?
[02:26] <Kirk> OK, thank you for satisfying my concern.  If it doesn't guess where I'll be!
[02:26] <geeksauce> is it possible to ssh into a mac from linux?
[02:26] <Kirk> ;)
[02:26] <devhen> MrProg: see the lost grub after installing windows link
[02:26] <djhedges> alright
[02:26] <goblimey> rredd4, i dont know why update manager wasnt working but i just used synaptic instead for a while and now update manager is working again without crashing X
[02:26] <Kirk> Thanks guys.  You're helping the noobs like me.  :P
[02:26] <Kirk> bbl again
[02:26] <soniccol> I used sudo related command but it can't be fix
[02:26] <devhen> MyProg: itll show you how to reinstall/reconfigure grub
[02:26] <Jamo> what is automatix and how is it supposed to help me get sun's jdk?
[02:26] <Kirk> Back to work
[02:26] <jrib> geeksauce: yes
[02:27] <jrib> !automatix
[02:27] <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.
[02:27] <ketetha_> !network
[02:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about network - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <jrib> !java > Jamo
[02:27] <ketetha_> !internet
[02:27] <Madpilot> Jamo, stay away from Automatix. Sun's JDK should be in Multiverse
[02:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about internet - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <rredd4> goblimey  should we report this as a bug?
[02:27] <ketetha_> !net
[02:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about net - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell Jamo about java
[02:27] <ketetha_> ugh tell the bot to know some stuff
[02:27] <Jamo> thank you
[02:27] <MrProg> yeah i got it
[02:27] <MrProg> thx
[02:27] <Jamo> except I"ve already went through that tutorial and it didn't help
[02:28] <Madpilot> ketetha_, what should the bot know about "internet"?
[02:28] <jrib> Jamo: well what happened?
[02:28] <ketetha_> soniccol, im sorry. i'm not a help to you. go ahead and ask your question again to the board and someone will probably be able to help you better then i can
[02:28] <synd2> Hi. I just installed network-manager-gnome. How do I start it?
[02:28] <ketetha_> madpilot, haha i dont know!
[02:28] <SelfHarm> to share disk space between windows and linux, fat32?
[02:28] <rredd4> yup
[02:28] <Jamo> jrib: with all repositories checked, still can't find it in the list of packages
[02:28] <Madpilot> ketetha_, then please stop randomly poking the bot, thanks
[02:28] <ketetha_> Madpilot, it just SHOULD. i dont nkow. i need help on network speed and speeding up the internet.
[02:28] <SelfHarm> ty rredd4not5
[02:28] <ketetha_> Madpilot, ok then. sorry
[02:28] <jrib> Jamo: you want sun-java5-bin right?
[02:28] <Madpilot> ketetha_, then try asking an actual question here...
[02:29] <Jamo> no -jdk
[02:29] <soniccol> ketetha_: thx anyway :)
[02:29] <goblimey> rredd4, its up to you but i cant reproduce the error now anyway ;)
[02:29] <Gnewf> i want a certain command to run on boot, after all the services have started, how can i accomplish that?
[02:29] <synd2> Anyone?
[02:29] <jrib> Jamo: you know the package name for that?
[02:29] <ketetha_> Madpilot, next time i'll just do it directly to ubotu so i dont bother you. :)
[02:29] <rredd4> goblimey ok
[02:29] <Jamo> jrib: according to the link you sent me it is sun-java5-jdk
[02:29] <devhen> try sudo apt-get install free-java-sdk
[02:29] <ketetha_> soniccol, sorry again. your welcome :)
[02:29] <jrib> Jamo: sun-java5-jdk it seems.  If that doesn't turn up, please pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:30] <Jamo> jrib: roj
[02:30] <hedonistic> I've downloaded guifications, how do I run it so that I can install a theme?
[02:30] <synd2> I just installed network-manager-gnome. How do I start it?
[02:31] <hedonistic> synd2, nm-desklet
[02:31] <synd2> hedonistic: Ah, thanks!
[02:31] <rredd4> later
[02:31] <synd2> hedonistic: bash: nn-desklet: command not found
[02:31] <ketetha_> berightback
[02:31] <geeksauce> how safe is it to not be behind a firewall in linux?  i know it's pretty safe with a mac, and not at all safe with windows.  what about linux?
[02:31] <djhedges> always depends
[02:32] <tmorrisey> geeksauce, are you behind a router?
[02:32] <DarkMageZ> hi, which package from dapper repositories do i need to meet "kernel source tree" requirements?
[02:32] <djhedges> dark i wana say something along the lines kernel headers
[02:32] <geeksauce> right now i am. but i was gonna do something that would require me to enable DMZ, which would mean no firewall.
[02:32] <Gnewf> Does ubuntu use rc.boot????
[02:33] <sproingie> geeksauce: about as safe as a mac.  if you install anything at all, you open yourself up
[02:33] <hedonistic> synd2, system>prefs>sessions>startup programs...if you enter nm-applet into there it will always start at boot...applet not desklet sorry
[02:33] <curuptura> hi channel
[02:33] <tmorrisey> geeksauce, I would run a firewall just to be on the safe side, but that's just personal opinion... I even have firewalls turned on on my Mac
[02:33] <mike-x2> jrib:cant find package
[02:33] <jeekl> My wireless card just dissapeared after a reboot. Any way to get it bask? ifconfig ath0 up tells me the devide dosen't exist
[02:33] <curuptura> i have a question
[02:33] <Jamo> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17874 regarding no sun-java5-jdk package
[02:33] <jrib> mike-x2: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:34] <DarkMageZ> djhedges, yeah, i'd be hoping that's all, cause i've only got 1 shot @ this or i'll have to wait a week for internet access
[02:34] <sproingie> curuptura: just go ahead and ask
[02:34] <joebu23> hello all, how do i remake the ubuntu kernel
[02:34] <djhedges> i got one for u tmorrisey, whats the difference between running applications on a mac vs linux
[02:34] <curuptura> to run the doom3 game on ubuntu i need some files from the win32 installation cds
[02:34] <geeksauce> is there a certain port i can forward to allow me to ssh into a mac?
[02:34] <jrib> Jamo: you comfortable editing /etc/apt/sources.list by hand?
[02:34] <djhedges> ssh on the mac or ur pc geek?
[02:34] <curuptura> i that the windows xp installation cd ?
[02:34] <Jamo> yeah
[02:34] <docta_v> ssh is port 22
[02:34] <eternalsword> how do I enable dragging to other workspaces?
[02:34] <geeksauce> ssh into the mac from the pc
[02:34] <djhedges> you shouldn't need to forward ports on your end
[02:35] <Madpilot> curuptura, WinXP is win32, yes
[02:35] <curuptura> but i cant find the files on the cd
[02:35] <synd2> hedonistic: My other question is that when I have it running, it doesn't see any wireless APs, whereas the normal Ubuntu "Networking" app does
[02:35] <hedonistic> I installed the gaim-guifications which I understand allows for drag and drop capabilities for installing gaim themes, but I can't seem to open the guifications app, can anyone tell me the terminal command (or better yet, how to find such commands after installing any given app)
[02:35] <Jamo> jrib: I am more interested in why this has to be done
[02:35] <jrib> Jamo: add " multiverse" to the end of lines 16, 17, 31, and 32: all the lines with "universe" but no "multiverse"
[02:35] <curuptura> it supposed 2 b on /base folder
[02:35] <tmorrisey> djhedges, I'm a linux noob, but so far with ubuntu the only difference I've noticed is difficulty of installation
[02:35] <sproingie> curuptura: the installation cd for doom
[02:35] <bernielomax> Hi I wonder. In python, how do I record the sound of ubuntu?
[02:35] <joebu23> I did a make menuconfig, but I get an error back
[02:35] <joebu23> I'm sort of a noob
[02:35] <tmorrisey> djhedges, once you get something working it's great, but sometimes you run into brick walls while compiling that make you want to bang your head into the wall
[02:35] <hedonistic> synd2, can't help you there, I'm not exactly an expert on the subject
[02:36] <synd2> hedonistic: Ok, thanks
[02:36] <curuptura> sproingie, the installation cd of doom ?
[02:36] <synd2> Anyone get nm-applet to work?
[02:36] <docta_v> joebu23: why are you trying to compile a kernel if you're a noob?
[02:36] <curuptura> the guide clearly indicates those files 2 b on the win32 installation cd(s)
[02:36] <sproingie> curuptura: yes, there's an install cd for doom3 for windows.  you need that cd on linux
[02:36] <docta_v> just use a pre-compiled one
[02:36] <dao777> bernielomax: as a learning exercise? or what?
[02:36] <jrib> Jamo: I've been meaning to find out why multiverse isn't included in the commented repos, I suppose it may be because it isn't free.  But then you have backports multiverse...
[02:36] <curuptura> oh i see
[02:36] <bernielomax> dao777: yeah. more or less. I want to stream it :)
[02:36] <joebu23> docta: I am trying to install a touchpanel on the frontend of a computer
[02:36] <sproingie> curuptura: it does not mean your windows cd from microsoft
[02:36] <dao777> bernielomax: anyway, #python is probably better
[02:36] <whitesuit>  hi, i'm trying to access the anonymous gnome cvs repository using: cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome login  ,when i get asked for a password i hit enter but i simply come back to my shell, can anyone help me?
[02:37] <curuptura> sproingie, thanx man
[02:37] <jrib> !repos > Jamo
[02:37] <djhedges> tmorrisey, thats where i'm curious when it comes to compile say a program on a mac vs linux, how big the difference is
[02:37] <docta_v> joebu23: the pre-compiled ubuntu kernel has all the drivers you need
[02:37] <jrib> Jamo: those links explain the different components of the repositories, just some info for you
[02:37] <ras> I just upgraded to dapper and now my mixer icon has a big X on it and I cant hear no sound, how do I fix this missing driver problem [I think thats the cause] 
[02:37] <Kirk> Hello.
[02:37] <jeekl> Does anyone know anything about why my wireless card dissapeared?
[02:37] <Kirk> How do I uninstall something I installed using apt-get?
[02:37] <docta_v> jeekl: i stole it
[02:37] <jrib> Kirk: apt-get remove something
[02:37] <djhedges> apt-get remove
[02:37] <tmorrisey> djhedges, I haven't compiled much on a mac, the command line stuff I've used has mostly been installed via 'fink' if you've heard of that.
[02:38] <joebu23> docta: which driver would work for a usb touchpanel?
[02:38] <jeekl> docta_v: Then I'd like it back. It's very annoing that you just took it without telling ;-)
[02:38] <sproingie> djhedges: you're likely going to use gcc on both mac and linux.  linux isn't going to have xcode or cocoa or any of that, but it will have a more "plain" unix environment that most unix apps expect
[02:38] <cubicool> Can someone PLEASE tell me what is wrong w/ Cryptsetup in Dapper!?!?
[02:38] <geeksauce> whoa...all of a sudden my mouse is acting up...when i use the scroll wheel, the pointer goesto the right...what gives?
[02:38] <ryanakca_> nixternal: grats... awesome
[02:39] <nixternal> huh
[02:39] <Jamo> jrib: thank you! *there is an ubuntu forum result that comes up on google when I search this topic http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197971 that doesn't exactly explain the fix, I'd mark it up to help the next guy but I"m not exactly sure we fixed it yet
[02:39] <nixternal> grats on what?
[02:39] <Kirk> OK, I'm trying to install VHCS (www.vhcs.net) and I am getting an error.  The error follows.
[02:39] <Kirk> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[02:39] <Kirk> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

[02:39] <sproingie> Kirk: don't paste into the channel
[02:39] <Kirk> What should I do?
[02:40] <Kirk> Sorry... but how else do I give you the error? :P
[02:40] <geeksauce> !pastebin
[02:40] <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)
[02:40] <ras> use pastebin
[02:40] <Kirk> Ah
[02:40] <Kirk> Sorry, I'm new here... ;)
[02:40] <Jamo> jrib: righto, I'll leave a message on that topic for the next guy myself then
[02:40] <bernielomax> dao777: I'm not so sure. this is very distro specific I think. What sound server does ubuntu use?
[02:40] <geeksauce> anyone know what's up with my mouse?
[02:40] <sproingie> bernielomax: esd
[02:40] <bernielomax> dao777: oh
[02:41] <joebu23> has anyone successfully gotten the touchkit driver to work with ubuntu dapper?
[02:41] <sproingie> bernielomax: and kubuntu uses arts
[02:41] <Kirk> OK then.  In installing VHCS, www.vhcs.net, I get the following error:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17875  Please evaluate and give me something to try.  I've played around with uninstalling and reinstalling mysql... but that hasn't done any good.  Suggestions?
[02:41] <bernielomax> oh :S
[02:41] <Kirk> I'm running Breezy by the way.
[02:41] <Kirk> 5.10
[02:41] <bernielomax> I wonder, there should be a highlevel library to handle sound.
[02:41] <sproingie> bernielomax: that's precisely what esd and arts are
[02:41] <bernielomax> Eg. one that could adjust volumelevels on applications induvidiually.
[02:42] <bernielomax> *induvidually.
[02:42] <jrib> Kirk: are you using unofficial repositories?
[02:42] <Redman276> !repositories
[02:42] <T`ch> anoyne using a intel 915 chipset for video and got suspend/resume to work??
[02:42] <Kirk> Unofficial repositories?  I am running the .sh script provided at www.vhcs.net... and used apt-get install to install mysql-client, mysql-common, and mysql-server
[02:42] <sproingie> bernielomax: openAL seems to be the de facto standard for high level environmental sound.  streaming is a different matter
[02:42] <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
[02:43] <jrib> Kirk: so which command exactly gives you that error?
[02:43] <bernielomax> sproingie: I'm not looking for environmental sound. I am looking for a way to record what an application is playing :)
[02:43] <geeksauce> it's only when i scroll the wheel up
[02:44] <Kirk> jrib: I am not executing any particular commands.  It is an automated setup run in a .sh script.
[02:44] <bernielomax> sproingie: so far, I can't see any libraries that can handle lowlevel artsd or esd handling
[02:44] <Kirk> jrib: It looks to me like it's looking for 4.1, but I have the newer one installed I believe.
[02:44] <sproingie> bernielomax: i'd love to see something like the windows sound driver model on linux.  unfortunately not gonna happen.
[02:44] <Kirk> I can't find MySQL client or server version 4.1 in apt-cache.
[02:44] <Kirk> Just common.

[02:45] <bernielomax> well. the streaming part is done. :)
[02:45] <ras> HELP!!!! I just upgraded to dapper and now my mixer icon has a big X on it and I cant hear no sound, how do I fix this missing driver problem [I think thats the cause] 
[02:45] <bernielomax> I've made nullsoft video streams, and that was quite easy :)

[02:46] <Carrigan> has anyone here installed "eye candy" for dapper?
[02:46] <sproingie> bernielomax: i'm pretty sure arts has pluggable filters.  not sure about esd
[02:46] <Madpilot> nathan__, upgrade to ubuntu 6.06
[02:46] <OrgulloKmoore> k3b runs awfully slow compared to Nero on Windows...is there a way to optimize this? It's burning at 3X when my burner and disks are capable of 24X...
[02:46] <Madpilot> Carrigan, which eye candy?
[02:46] <Kirk> jrib: So are you saying I can't install version 4.1 in Ubuntu Breezy Badger?  But... VHCS says it supports Breezy badger, yet says it requires MySQL 4.1...
[02:46] <bernielomax> Oh
[02:46] <Carrigan> Mappilot: Compiz
[02:46] <bernielomax> sproingie: nah. filters are application end
[02:47] <LjL> Kirk: you can have version 5.0 too
[02:47] <Ignite_> anyone know how i can play/remove drm (from) my video file?
[02:47] <sproingie> bernielomax: that would explain why i don't see anything for 'em in the arts control panel.  ah well.
[02:47] <Kirk> What's the apt-get install code to get that?
 k3b runs awfully slow compared to Nero on Windows...is there a way to optimize this? It's burning at 3X when my burner and disks are capable of 24X...
[02:47] <digitalhav0c> thats what i want to know too

[02:47] <bernielomax> well, they should be. it is just cruft to place it there
[02:47] <sproingie> digitalhav0c: my guess is dma isn't enabled on your burner
[02:48] <ubuntu> hi
[02:48] <bernielomax> but ah. pymedia seems to support mixing stuff.
[02:48] <Kirk> Ah!
[02:48] <Kirk> One minute.
[02:48] <LjL> Kirk: but you said you're using breezy?
[02:48] <OrgulloKmoore> sproingie> my DMA is enabled
[02:48] <sproingie> digitalhav0c: it almost never is for cd writing on linux unfortunately
[02:48] <digitalhav0c> how do i enable in unbuntu
[02:48] <ubuntu> fdsf
[02:48] <digitalhav0c> sproingie, how do you enable?

[02:49] <Kirk> Universe?
[02:49] <sproingie> digitalhav0c: as far as i know, you gotta recompile the kernel.  possible ubuntu has it enabled by default in which case it's a magic /proc file thingie ... no idea what it would be tho
[02:49] <LjL> !tell Kirk about universe
[02:49] <digitalhav0c> oh
[02:49] <bernielomax> sproingie: http://pymedia.org/features.html
[02:49] <Kirk> I did "sudo apt-get install mysql-4.1-server mysql-4.1-client mysql-4.1-common".
[02:49] <Kirk> I think that will do the trick.
[02:49] <LjL> Kirk: if universe is enabled and you're on breezy, yeah

[02:50] <digitalhav0c> sorry guys
[02:51] <bernielomax> sproingie: I enjoy it. I even do the packet handling in python.
[02:51] <GianLuigiBuffon> hi m8s
[02:51] <bernielomax> sproingie: because all the intensive code is in libraries anyway =)
[02:51] <ketetha_> digitalhav0c, haha dont have to apologize to me :) i dont care. i did that two days ago and got scolded but some reasonn serious person following the rules
[02:51] <paied> python (giggle)
[02:51] <bernielomax> i used to code asm
[02:51] <Dr4g> why not anymore ?
[02:51] <bernielomax> so I call it a little relief
[02:51] <sproingie> bernielomax: oh i like python too.  it's just hard to reuse python without, well, dragging in all of python
[02:52] <ketetha_> ** digitalhav0c its supposed to say. i got scolded BY SOME REALLY seirous person ......
[02:52] <bernielomax> well, what are you trying to do?
[02:52] <bernielomax> you install the parts of python you need, and you go.
[02:52] <Asaga> great! i fixed up my partitions
[02:52] <Asaga> my windows partiton now has 100 gigs
[02:52] <Asaga> linux has 10 gigs
[02:52] <Asaga> all is as it should be
[02:52] <Carrigan> I'm trying to setup Xgl, but when i run the virtual desktop it logs off instantly, can anyone tell me what that is?
[02:52] <jrib> that sounds broke :)
[02:53] <bernielomax> but yeah. it is a chore some times. eg. math can be very slow.
[02:53] <ketetha_> asaga, when you type try to make it one post so its not multiple things in one thing
[02:53] <Kirk> Please look at both of these, and send me a private message with the answer.  I will be back in about 15 minutes.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17877   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17876
[02:53] <jrib> Carrigan: try #ubuntu-xgl too
[02:53] <Kirk> bbl
[02:53] <sproingie> bernielomax: it's fairly zippy with numeric or if you use pyrex (none of that auto-promoting nonsense)
[02:53] <Carrigan> Well the tutorial im working off is written for ubuntu
[02:53] <Carrigan> Let me look though
[02:54] <bernielomax> sproingie: yes. pyrex is funky :)
[02:54] <Madpilot> Carrigan, try #ubuntu-xgl (sorry, meant to give you that channel name earlier...)
[02:54] <Carrigan> ohhh ok
[02:54] <sproingie> bernielomax: python in general just isn't a big speed demon.  fast enough for my purposes tho.
[02:54] <Carrigan> thanks guys
[02:54] <ketetha_> how long has this channel been existent?
[02:54] <bernielomax> it beat my handwritten c-code by 2fps!
[02:54] <Sleeping_Sloth> hello... can someone tell me how I would find out whether my kernel has NUMA support enabled?
[02:54] <sproingie> ketetha_: about as long as ubuntu has been around
[02:55] <ketetha_> sproingie, which is ... hehe
[02:55] <sproingie> ketetha_: ubuntu.com should tell you
[02:55] <ketetha_> sproingie,  thankss
[02:55] <bernielomax> sproingie: yeah. but recording the sound output would be nice. because then we could offer a simple streaming solution to people.
[02:56] <bernielomax> and I think I can make it a all-in-one app :)
[02:56] <poje> What's the easiest way to get the c function man pages installed?
[02:56] <ketetha_> hey i noticed something. i dont have that cool power button thats usually next to your time and i want it back
[02:56] <__Caleb_> i dont think the live cd likes my laptops graphics card
[02:56] <bimberi> ketetha_: sudo aptitude install manpages-dev
[02:56] <Sleeping_Sloth> does anyone know anything about numa?
[02:56] <ketetha_> bimberi, merci beacoup!
[02:56] <jrib> poje: manpages-dev I believe
[02:56] <ketetha_> oh i have another question. so if i have yahoo i cant set up evolution because of the POP junk?
[02:57] <bimberi> ketetha_: de rien :)
[02:57] <poje> jrib/bimberi: thanks :D
[02:57] <ketetha_> bimberi, ooh thats snazzy :)
[02:57] <Jamo> where should I install applications that need to be installed manually? (intelliJ IDEA)
[02:57] <Sleeping_Sloth> or - can anyone tell me a decent memory bandwidth benchmark I can run?
[02:57] <HellDragon> :)
[02:58] <bimberi> Jamo: /opt is the usual place
[02:58] <Jamo> what does opt stand for?
[02:58] <sproingie> optional
[02:58] <LjL> or /usr/local, if the app spreads out files
[02:58] <Jamo> weird, I would have put it in applications, just me though :|

[02:59] <Kirk> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17877   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17876
[02:59] <ketetha_> i have yet another question. is there any other kind of terminal or other things you can do with the terminal besides make it full screen
[02:59] <bimberi> Jamo: have a look at that tldp link from ubutu (above)
[02:59] <__Caleb_> ketetha_: make it transparent
[02:59] <__Caleb_> ?
[02:59] <sproingie> i always create a /pkg/name-version then a symlink in /opt
[02:59] <poje> ketetha_: like what?
[02:59] <ketetha_> __Caleb_, serious? how
[02:59] <sproingie> but that's probably overkill unless you want to maintain multiple versions
[02:59] <jrib> ketetha_: 'apt-get moo'  what do you mean exactly?
[02:59] <ketetha_> poje, just really cool things. i wanna be amazed
[02:59] <__Caleb_> what terminal you using?
[02:59] <ketetha_> jrib, like cool new things that you can do with it
[03:00] <poje> ketetha_: transparency, yeah...that's about it
[03:00] <poje> terminals are powerful, not flashy ;)
[03:00] <__Caleb_> change the font
[03:00] <ketetha_> __Caleb_, whichver one comes with ubuntu dapper drake
[03:00] <ketetha_> jrib, wahts that code do?
[03:00] <__Caleb_> gnome-terminal
[03:00] <siriusnova> hmm k
[03:00] <ketetha_> poje, how do yo umake it transparent?
[03:00] <__Caleb_> should be able to tell it
[03:00] <jrib> ketetha_: try it, it won't hurt anything
[03:00] <__Caleb_> look through the menu
[03:00] <ketetha_> jrib, haha okk ^.&
[03:00] <Jamo> it is too bad they don't use descriptive names for the file system, someone ought to fix that, it is 2006
[03:00] <ketetha_> *** jrib, ^.^
[03:01] <sproingie> Jamo: that's unix for you
[03:01] <ketetha_> jrib, wow thats hilarious. haha was that put there for fun
[03:01] <poje> ketetha_: right click, edit current profile, and it's under effects
[03:01] <__Caleb_> so now
[03:01] <Jamo> sproingie: who is in charge? does he/she know that we can change stuff like that ?
[03:01] <__Caleb_> what would cause ubuntu not to detect my graphics card
[03:01] <LjL> Jamo: just make symbolic links with words that make sense
[03:01] <sproingie> Jamo: poor AT&T was so impoverished they had to save on tty ribbons, so they abbreviated syscalls to stuff like creat() and umount()
[03:01] <__Caleb_> well it detects it
[03:01] <__Caleb_> but i get xorg errors
[03:01] <ketetha_> another question
[03:01] <poje> Jamo: it is much faster to type the names on *nix systems, it is handy when you're using them over and over again
[03:01] <Hexidigital> i use KDE and Gnome... how can i disable GUI start at boot? (i want to boot into a terminal)
[03:01] <LjL> Jamo: like "ln -s /opt /Applications"
[03:02] <ketetha_> how do i access my calender
[03:02] <sproingie> Jamo: if you like sensible directory names in your unix, try OSX
[03:02] <__Caleb_> Hexidigital: check rc.conf
[03:02] <Hexidigital> __Caleb_:: thx :)
[03:02] <__Caleb_> yw
[03:02] <LjL> sproingie, Jamo: there's also a Linux distro that makes it a point to use long names (and uses tricks to hide the short names, which are symlinks). don't remember the name right now
[03:02] <Jamo> LjL: wouldn't it be more intuitive to use descriptive names and then use syslinks to them with short names? the answer is yes
[03:03] <sproingie> LjL: sounds gratuitously incompatible.  i prefer the gui approach for beginners.
[03:03] <ketetha_> like i wanna see it and be able to set things on the calender. but it wont open when i click on it
[03:03] <LjL> Jamo: the answer is, do that if you want, but then i don't guarantee for a bit that your system won't mess up
[03:03] <Whil> Hiya gang
[03:03] <ketetha_> poje, its not really transparent. just blue
[03:03] <LjL> Jamo: i wouldn't really want to venture into discovering what most system programs would do if confronted with, say, a /usr that is just a symlink
[03:04] <Jamo> LfL: that is why I don't do it, I would imagine, however, that someone with more influence must agree with me, or they are insane?  Can I include they are all insane or lazy?
[03:04] <poje> ketetha_: it is transparent to your background - perhaps I wasn't clear about it, sorry - if you want REAL transparency, investigate the new XGL stuff
[03:04] <Sleeping_Sloth> does anyone know of a good memory benchmarker?
[03:04] <sproingie> LjL: they handle it fine.  /usr has been a symlink on solaris for years
[03:04] <Jamo> LfL: you recommended using syslinks for commands not directories, the former is insane
[03:04] <Hexidigital> __Caleb_:: there's 7 files there.... rc0.d - rc6.d, plus rc.local... any ideas?
[03:04] <LjL> sproingie: that's not too far from what OS X does though, i think, though i'm not familiar with OS X. also, it's made to *not* be incompatible
[03:04] <ketetha_> poje, OHH! thats pretty coool. my background is solid. haha let me change that
[03:04] <Jamo> *the latter is insane
[03:04] <ketetha_> poje, okk thanks :)
[03:05] <poje> ketetha_: yeah it's pretty neat :)
[03:05] <LjL> sproingie: solaris != ubuntu.  then again, even ubuntu might handle that just fine, i just wouldn't recommend it myself until i see evidence that it works.
[03:05] <Jamo> LjL: point being, the obfuscation of directories and commands in linux is a significant turn off to new users, something the linux community tries to attract
[03:05] <sproingie> LjL: /usr is a symlink on my debian boxes, and it's never had a problem.  i can't imagine ubuntu is different
[03:05] <ketetha_> poje, hahah1 my face is on the terminal. thats aweomse
[03:05] <poje> Why are we arguing about short names? They are there for ease of use, not ease of understanding ;)
[03:05] <paied> "something the linux community tries to attract"
[03:05] <paied> i personally do not want linux taking over the world =p
[03:05] <sproingie> LjL: you have to go through some lengths to actually treat a symlink as a symlink and not what it's pointing to
[03:06] <paied> let microsoft take all the kicks in the balls.
[03:06] <LjL> Jamo: i talked about using symlinks (non syslinks ;) for *directories*, not for commands. and i didn't really "recommend" it, either
[03:06] <Jamo> paied: no? particular distros have the intention, especially unbuntu? no?
[03:06] <ketetha_> poje, the new XGL stuff can be found in packages?
[03:06] <poje> !XGL
[03:06] <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
[03:06] <paied> yeah  =(
[03:06] <__Caleb_> Hexidigital: rc.conf is what it is
[03:06] <ketetha_> poje, merci :)
[03:07] <Hexidigital> hmm
[03:07] <poje> ketetha_: no problems
[03:07] <darkphader> trying to grasp backports
[03:07] <Jamo> point being, I don't name my variables usr in my programs, linux shouldn't either
[03:07] <paied> just saying =\
[03:07] <poje> Jamo: my iteration variables are named i ;)
[03:07] <paied> the higher the monkey climbs the more his ass shows.
[03:07] <darkphader> it seems some packages get updated without backports
[03:07] <Mike-X2> Hi all
[03:07] <Jamo> poje, how dare you!
[03:07] <ketetha_> poje, whats the perpose of XGL
[03:07] <darkphader> others only through backports
[03:07] <ketetha_> poje, wait dont answer lthat le tme keep reading
[03:07] <LjL> Jamo: another point: those "ugly" and short directory names have been traditionally used on Unix system since ages. changing that (besides the symlinks tricks we've talked about) would break compatibility a lot. the idea is that the important this is that the names for the directories are *standard* -- given that, what the names are exactly bears little importance. anyway, we should continue discussing this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:07] <digitalhav0c> poje,  you running 6.06 lts i've got the best guide to xgl and compiz
[03:08] <poje> Jamo: there is a place for everything, and giving users a quick map between the actual names and their abbreviations is really all that's needed
[03:08] <paied> ugly and short file paths are better than mac os.
[03:08] <paied> /Application Data weeee
[03:08] <sproingie> windows uses ".exe" at the end of executables, which doesn't strike me as any less arbitrary
[03:08] <sproingie> we all have traditions, some are more worth changing than others
[03:08] <LjL> everybody: we're offtopic, let's bring this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:08] <poje> digitalhav0c: I'm going to put it in once I get my desktop onto Dapper, for now I'm on my OLD laptop - however, shoot me a link, I'd appreciate it
[03:09] <Mike-X2> didnt know there was a GAIM for windows:D
[03:09] <digitalhav0c> http://tazforum.thetazzone.com/viewtopic.php?t=2189 > best xgl tutorial gest everythign working plus more
[03:09] <digitalhav0c> gets
[03:09] <poje> Mike-X2: pfft, how do you think I use Windows then? ;d
[03:09] <digitalhav0c> everything
[03:09] <tylerj> How exactly do you get a virus in ubuntu?
[03:09] <ketetha_> is there a button to open the terminal from anywhere you are? besides ctrl alt f1
[03:09] <poje> tylerj: users. ;)
[03:09] <synd2> Can I configure Terminal to do true transparency?
[03:09] <Mike-X2> poje::)
[03:09] <sproingie> poje: users are a disease.  we ... are the cure
[03:09] <poje> ketetha_: go to system, prefs, kb shortcuts
[03:09] <poje> sproingie: \m/,
[03:10] <tylerj> poje: users as in?
[03:10] <poje> digitalhav0c: appreciated :)
[03:10] <Meshica7> Hello folks!
[03:10] <poje> tylerj: no matter how much security you build in, users will find a way to smoke their box
[03:10] <Mike-X2> runnin a win-machine and ubuntu-machine
[03:10] <tylerj> poje: oh...ok
[03:10] <Hwyvar> sproingie poje: users are a disease.  we ... are the cure .. operation succes, patient died
[03:10] <sproingie> poje: also phrased as "no matter how idiotproof you make it, god invents a better idiot"
[03:11] <poje> sproingie: indeed ;d
[03:11] <poje> It's okay though, we all do it sometime
[03:11] <Mike-X2> consider installin ubuntu or gentoo 2006 on win-machine instead of XP
[03:11] <sproingie> we're all idiots at something
[03:11] <Meshica7> I am new to Ubuntu and have a questio about installing on the PPC platform.Is anyone free to lend a hand?
[03:11] <poje> Mike-X2: ubuntu is the better choice unless you have a LOT of time waiting for stuff to emerge - ubuntu is a snap to get up and running
[03:12] <ketetha_> poje, thanks :)
[03:12] <poje> ketetha_: de rien :)
[03:12] <sproingie> the hell ... what happened to xchat's settings?
[03:12] <Mike-X2> poje: i know:)
[03:13] <sproingie> i want to auto-perform nickserv identify and i can't find anything for it
[03:13] <digitalhav0c> xgl & compiz are much better now
[03:13] <digitalhav0c> i haven't crashed yet
[03:13] <Mike-X2> sproingie: drop X-chat and use gaim
[03:13] <Asaga> does anyone know how to install programs in ubuntu
[03:13] <Asaga> i'm having trouble with it
[03:13] <digitalhav0c> only problems i have when trying to play games
[03:13] <sproingie> Mike-X2: for irc.  you must be joking.
[03:13] <digitalhav0c> Asaga, apt-get install
[03:13] <synd2> Can I configure Terminal to do true transparency?
[03:13] <Asaga> okay
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> sudo apt-get install
[03:14] <Asaga> thanks
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> sudo apt-get install k3b
[03:14] <Whil> ummmm I have a problem. No gnome control center.
[03:14] <Asaga> wait
[03:14] <poje> synd2: XGL :)
[03:14] <Mike-X2> sproingie: lol
[03:14] <Asaga> those are commands?
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> sudo apt-get install  <program name>
[03:14] <synd2> poje: XGL?
[03:14] <sproingie> i might drop it to use konversation instead, but i'm sticking out gnome for a while now
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> synd2, no
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> other than xgl
[03:14] <poje> sproingie: irssi ;)
[03:14] <Asaga> okay, and where do i imput that?
[03:14] <Ignite_> sproingie, are you using the gnome version? if so uninstall it and install xchat like "sudo apt-get install xchat" :P
[03:14] <digitalhav0c> thats what im trying to figure out now
[03:14] <sproingie> actually i might just switch back to the old standby, chatzilla
[03:14] <poje> !xgl

[03:15] <synd2> poje: Thanks
[03:15] <Mike-X2> how do I know if headers is in right place??
[03:15] <digitalhav0c> like i've seen in some screen shots
[03:15] <Meshica7> I want to install Ubuntu onto a free internal HD (10 Gig) on my Mac so I can have a dual boot system.Using the installer on the Live CD,how do I accomplish this?
[03:15] <Mike-X2> to install Nvidia
[03:15] <bernielomax> hmm, what is the best python editor under ubuntu? beside vim and emacs?
[03:15] <ax> has anyone here installed ubuntu on a usb drive using something like debootstrap? (i'm wanting to install from a debian box)
[03:16] <Jamo> can I extract a tar.gz with the GUI as a power user? *all I can do now is right click it as my user
[03:16] <sproingie> i've used debootstrap, not for a usb drive tho
[03:16] <poje> Jamo: I would say to use the CLI...
[03:16] <digitalhav0c> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v600/MiddleBrooker/screen.jpg
[03:16] <digitalhav0c> how do i do that in gnome 2.14
[03:16] <digitalhav0c> thats what i want
[03:17] <Whil> whats a cli?
[03:17] <MenZa> !cli
[03:17] <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
[03:17] <ax> sproingie: do you know of documentation for how to do it? [debootstrap an ubuntu install] ?
[03:17] <Jamo> whil: command line input
[03:17] <basketcase3> Can anyone solve a problem I'm having booting ubuntu on a G3 iMac? It loads fine, until it gets to "Confinguring Power Managment", then the screen goes black.
[03:17] <MenZa> interface, Jamo .
[03:17] <Whil> jamo: thanks
[03:17] <Jamo> :(
[03:17] <poje> Hehehe
[03:17] <MenZa> digitalhav0c: isn't that blackbox?
[03:17] <Meatwad> that's blackbox, not gnome
[03:17] <poje> digitalhav0c: GAH! Why would you want that? I can't read the text
[03:18] <digitalhav0c> other than that i just want a fixed terminal on desktop
[03:18] <Dagataka> will the 2.6.18 kernel be in Dapper?
[03:18] <Jamo> poje: what happened to the user friendly'ness :(
[03:18] <digitalhav0c> poje, it looks cool duh lol
[03:18] <Whil> digitalhav0c: why not load one at startup?
[03:18] <poje> Jamo: honestly...file-roller has a little ways to go
[03:18] <sproingie> ax: hm, i did it for installing a 32bit chroot on amd64.  should be the same idea though
[03:18] <fiveiron> hey is it possible to get an internal 5.25" hd enclosure for an IDE hdd, and kind of "hot-swap" drives in it?
[03:18] <sproingie> !chroot
[03:18] <ubotu> I know nothing about chroot - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[03:18] <digitalhav0c> Whil, how would i get it to load in the same location
[03:18] <poje> Jamo: and I never said linux was user friendly ;) - it is a harsh mistress
[03:19] <poje> digitalhav0c: haha, conceded, but usability >>> cool factor
[03:19] <sproingie> meh.  the bot is no help.
[03:19] <aajvs99> word
[03:19] <digitalhav0c> lol
[03:19] <aajvs99> sup nerr
[03:19] <basketcase3>  Can anyone solve a problem I'm having booting ubuntu on a G3 iMac? It loads fine, until it gets to "Confinguring Power Managment", then the screen goes black.
[03:19] <Whil> digitalhav0c: Assuming it started where you wanted it, it would load there each and every time.
[03:19] <digitalhav0c> whil
[03:19] <digitalhav0c> oh
[03:19] <ax> i gues i odn't know exactly how debootstrap works but i see that there are scripts for particular debian installs, i figure i've gotta find the same for ubuntu huh?
[03:20] <Whil> digitalhav0c: Sorry wasn't much help there
[03:20] <sproingie> ax: you should be able to follow the debian instructions and just substitute ubuntu mirrors and distribution names
[03:20] <sproingie> ax: like "dapper" instead of "etch"
[03:20] <ax> okay, i'll try :)
[03:21] <Whil> I still can't find my gnome control panel.
[03:21] <Mike-X2> how do i know if kernel-headers is in the right place for installin nvidia????????
[03:21] <Whil> IE I don't have anything under preferences or administration for it.
[03:22] <ketetha_> brb
[03:22] <ax> sproingie: debootstrap complains : "No such script: /usr/lib/debootstrap/scripts/dapper"
[03:22] <sproingie> Whil: if you install kernel-headers, it should create the proper links for you
[03:22] <Whil> sproingie: Okay I'll try it. Thanks.
[03:22] <sproingie> ax: you have to adapt one of the existing scripts. i just ran debootstrap from scratch
[03:23] <ax> okay
[03:23] <Jamo> using tar can I untar to another folder?
[03:23] <Mike-X2> how do i know if kernel-headers is in the right place for installin nvidia????????
[03:23] <Dr4g> sudo apt-get install curl <-- this installs curl + libcurl ?
[03:23] <poje> Jamo: I don't think you can
[03:24] <Jamo> poje: thx for the confirmation
[03:24] <sproingie> ax: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[03:24] <sproingie> ax: that's for setting up a 32bit chroot in 64bit, but it's basically the same idea
[03:24] <poje> Jamo: try -C
[03:25] <poje> Jamo: the man page is not terrible helpful on this point, I was trying to do this a while ago
[03:25] <sproingie> ax: i don't know that those actually install a kernel tho, so you'll have to look that up

[03:27] <zomorf_> I'm following a guide about making my ubuntu machine into a gateway using webmin... I have downloaded the webmin package in tar.gz format and uncompressed it...

[03:31] <poje> cpare: uhh hold on
[03:32] <poje> Oh
[03:32] <cpare> poje - rpedro - I think I need to do a For Each
[03:32] <poje> cpare: cd /;rm -rf *.thumb.jpg
[03:32] <ax> would someone mind sending me, or posting the "dapper" script from sr/lib/debootstrap/scripts
[03:32] <ketetha_> back
[03:32] <rcguzon> jsgotanco: iniba ko na screen name ko pra mag reflect sa pangalan ko
[03:32] <Kirk> brb
[03:32] <ax> that should be /user/lib/ ....
[03:32] <regeya> cpare: 'man find' so you know what you're doing, but I'd recommend find /some/path -type -f -name "*.thumb.jpg" -print0 | xargs -0 rm
[03:32] <Mike-X2> how do i know if kernel-headers is in the right place for installin nvidia????????
[03:33] <cpare> regeya - I think this is what I was after, although the other suggestions would work
[03:33] <Jamo> great so sun-java5-jdk ended with Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1), now it thinks it is installed, but it is not
[03:34] <merlander> hey - i've got a network problem - my wireless card is up on ra0 and I can ping things in a shell, but that's it - wget, firefox, gaim get stuck connecting to servers - any ideas?
[03:34] <NetwrkMonkey> I'm having issues with the clock time on my dapper server creeping up.. I'm not running ntp i have acpi off and the noapic settings set
[03:34] <poje> merlander: do you need to login to the network? the wifi access at my school does that until you login
[03:34] <rcguzon> ls
[03:34] <NetwrkMonkey> is there a bug with clock creep?
[03:35] <rcguzon> ./ConsoleOne
[03:35] <merlander> poje: no - well, it's encrypted with wpa, but the connection comes up
[03:36] <rcguzon> ./c1-install
[03:36] <rcguzon> y
[03:36] <scythe> anyone have a way disable the lid switch detection on acpid?
[03:36] <Flannel> NetwrkMonkey: computer clocks are just fickle, which is why ntp/etc was created.
[03:37] <scythe> other than taking the switch out of the laptop?
[03:37] <eegore|> hello?
[03:37] <poje> merlander: then I have no idea, coz I haven't used WPA on linux ;d
[03:37] <merlander> ah well...I dunno then
[03:37] <Flannel> eegore|: Howdy
[03:38] <scythe> or even better, has anyone discovered (or know) how to keep a laptop from stepping down in speed when my screen is closed?
[03:38] <GTroy_> what's an easy way to intall a vpn to ssh into my box?
[03:38] <Whil> can someone tell me what the egg_desktop error means?
[03:38] <soop> scythe: check your bios/cmos settings
[03:39] <GTroy_> !vpn
[03:39] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[03:39] <scythe> no settings in my bios for it soop, its a freaking locked down sony vaio, they wont let you do a dang thing from the bios
[03:41] <scythe> the system steps down to 600 mhz when I dont have acpid running, jumps to 1200 (where it should be) when i run acpid, but then drops when I close the lid (using an external monitor).  I can find where it detects the lid is open or closed (/proc/apci/lid/LID(something)/)
[03:41] <viator> anyone get these videos to work on your linux box?

[03:43] <scythe> can anyone tell me why when I install kde on ubuntu, it runs faster than when I run it on kubuntu?  is there a huge difference in kdm vs gdm?
[03:44] <hoov> Install issue/question: I'm trying to install dapper on a inspiron 1100 laptop.  When it boots the live cd, I get 640x480 of usable screen.  The problem is, when I start the installer, the bottom buttons are not visable, so cannot progress onward.  I booted again and chose "graphics safe mode" and x failed to start and I recieved a bunch of garbled text.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
[03:44] <eobanb> hoov, alt click on window
[03:44] <eobanb> you can drag it around
[03:44] <eobanb> even above the top bar
[03:45] <hoov> eobanb: thank you!
[03:45] <sproingie> hoov: use the alternative cd and you can pick a resolution

[03:48] <poje> Man I hope macromedia gets off their ass and gets flash9 out the door soon
[03:48] <poje> I've been hearing end of the year/jan for a linux beta
[03:48] <Jamo> where does ubuntu install packages such as java? I need to set JDK_HOME or something
[03:48] <Whil> macromedia? Snicker
[03:48] <poje> Jamo: should have installed where it wants to go
[03:48] <Tarantulafudge> how do I create a 50% partition
[03:49] <poje> Whil: heh yeah ;(
[03:49] <poje> Jamo: sdk or jre?
[03:49] <Jamo> jdk
[03:49] <javb> i cant find the way to restart my samba service on Ubuntu 6.06 ... it is not on /etc/init.d/smb ... i am putting my workgroup in /etc/samba/smb.conf. .. but it wont work.. any ideas?
[03:49] <viator> yeah where is flash nine anyway?
[03:49] <Meatwad> Jamo:  my java can be accessed through system--> preferences
[03:49] <viator> it was supposed to be out forver ago
[03:50] <viator> alot of stuff doesnt work with flash 78
[03:50] <viator> 7*
[03:50] <poje> Jamo: hmm...I remember installing the jdk...I think it was in a self contained directory, so just put that where you want
[03:50] <Jamo> Meat; that isn't the stuff I'm looking for
[03:50] <squidgy> Hi.  I am suddenly getting "Grub Error 17" on a dual-boot system that I've successfully booted into before.  I'm typing this from a LiveCD.  Can anyone please help me get back online?
[03:50] <Meatwad> ah, sorry
[03:50] <poje> And either make an alias for it or...I dunno
[03:50] <merlander> further networking weirdness - I can get networking on my wireless link working only if I put a false dns server in the dhcp config file, causing a huge delay in name resolution - if I don't have the false dns server there it gets stuck connecting (but can resolve)
[03:50] <Jamo> poje: I used apt-get to install it, now an application can't find java even though I can't just type java
[03:51] <poje> Jamo: export JDK_HOME=/path/to/the/bin/dir
[03:51] <poje> Jamo: do you know how to update the locate database?
[03:51] <Jamo> poje: I don't know where the bin dir is, I'm looked all over
[03:51] <Jamo> poje: I don't know what that is or how it is applicable
[03:52] <poje> Jamo: do slocate -u, then slocate javac
[03:52] <philipacamaniac> I can't get 3D acceleration to work using fglrx and an ATI Radeon 9700 pro
[03:53] <Jamo> poje: /usr/share/vim/vim64/compiler, wtf
[03:53] <crogue5> philipacamaniac, i have not been able to do it on mine either, in multiple distros
[03:53] <javb> i cant find the way to restart my samba service on Ubuntu 6.06 ... it is not on /etc/init.d/smb ... i am putting my workgroup in /etc/samba/smb.conf. .. but it wont work.. any ideas?
[03:53] <crogue5> philipacamaniac, i gave up on it, hehe
[03:53] <philipacamaniac> crogue5: It used to work in hoary and breezy
[03:53] <poje> Jamo: those were the only results?
[03:53] <crogue5> not sure what to tell ya,. i never used either of them, dapper is my first
[03:53] <philipacamaniac> And I think I had it working for a little while in dapper, but then I upgraded my motherboard, and now I can't get anything
[03:54] <bimberi> javb: /etc/init.d/samba  ??
[03:54] <squidgy> I'm unable to boot into my system due to "Grub Error 17".  Grub won't even show me a boot menu.  Any ideas?
[03:54] <javb> bimberi ... what? i just want to know where is my samba service? :-/ ... cant find it.. i just find the conf file..
[03:54] <viator> error 17?
[03:54] <Geoffrey2> what's the shortcut to reveal hidden directories in file manager?
[03:54] <spades> ctrl h
[03:55] <viator> make sure in your bios that its not set on auto that it has your harddrive listed instead of auto
[03:55] <Jamo> pojo: that was for javac, yes, java is all over the place
[03:55] <bimberi> javb: sudo invoke-rc.d samba resart
[03:55] <viator> got a usb drive?
[03:55] <javb> i eddited the conf file, adding my MS workgroup here in my house, i restarted and wualla, there it was.. but now, it is not :s
[03:55] <sproingie> wualla?
[03:55] <squidgy> viator:  yes, "Grub error 17", with no additional info.  I haven't made any BIOS or grub changes, except that I updated to a newer kernel.
[03:55] <poje> Jamo: it looks like it didn't install then (assuming you updated the locate database)
[03:55] <JohnnyFive> Anyone hear about the new OSX-style dock released for Ubuntu in the past few days?
[03:55] <javb> bimberi --> javb@javb-laptop:~$ sudo invoke-rc.d samba resart
[03:55] <javb> invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/samba not found.
[03:55] <Geoffrey2> spades, thanks :)
[03:55] <Jamo> poje: the culprit seems to be in /usr/lib/jvm/.... (that is, java)
[03:56] <squidgy> viator:  I do.  This *is* the first time I've booted with the external usb drive plugged in.
[03:56] <viator> try unplugging the usb
[03:56] <selfharm> help : \ i repaired my windows installation, it was complaining that some dll was busted after i installed ubuntu. part of the rapair, it got rid of grub, or overwrote it, so now i dont get ubuntu as a boot option anymore, but i still have ubuntu isntalled on a partition. any way for me to get it back?
[03:56] <harisund> people I need a quick help. I reinstalled Windows in my dual boot box, and now lost Ubuntu. how do I reinstall Grub?
[03:56] <selfharm> ^^
[03:56] <harisund> with breezy I could boot with the install CD, use the advanced installer and go straight to the Grub installation
[03:57] <squidgy> viator:  it hadn't occurred to me, but that's probably it.  Will the BIOS change eliminate this problem in the future, enabling me to boot with the external HD plugged in?
[03:57] <bimberi> javb: what do you want to do?  connect to a windows share?
[03:57] <sproingie> harisund: you probably could still do it with the breezy cd
[03:57] <viator> most likely :)
[03:57] <fiveiron> anyone have an ati tv wonder pro?
[03:57] <harisund> sproingie do you think it will wrk? Different kernel and all that? Will it still identify both my Dapper and Windows installatoin?
[03:57] <javb> Yes.. there is a workgroup here.. and i want to join and browes everything shared.
[03:57] <javb> Yes.. there is a workgroup here.. and i want to join and browes everything shared. bimberi
[03:58] <sproingie> harisund: if you just go straight to grub
[03:58] <squidgy> viator:  Many thanks.  I'll go try this now (I have to reboot since I'm typing from a livecd on the same system.)
[03:58] <phaedrus44> any advice on how to install mplayer?
[03:58] <viator> goodluck
[03:58] <squidgy> viator:  adios.
[03:58] <poje> Jamo: okay so how did you install the jdk?
[03:58] <selfharm> can grub be installed off of a livecd?
[03:58] <bimberi> javb: have you preciously connected?  if so, see if there are entries in the Places menu
[03:59] <harisund> sproingie ok .. I am going to take your word for it and give it a try
[03:59] <NetGuru_> first time linux user
[03:59] <viator> yes self
[03:59] <viator> or i think form
[03:59] <sproingie> harisund: i offer no guarantees.  if it breaks you get to keep both pieces
[03:59] <viator> your install cd
[03:59] <viator> as well
[03:59] <NetGuru_> got a small prob
[03:59] <javb> bimberi, come one.. I AM ON A LAN.
[03:59] <CrazyDoode> NetGuru_: welcome!!1
[03:59] <Jamo> poje: apt-get install sun-java5-jdk, it had me manually install the jre as well the same way before it would work
[03:59] <selfharm> can i install grub without reinstalling ubuntu?
[03:59] <poje> phaedrus44: roll your own, I haven't seen any debian builds
[03:59] <sproingie> harisund: i've run random versions of grub from random recovery cd's, so it'll *probably* work
[03:59] <viator> yes
[03:59] <phaedrus44> ok
[03:59] <NetGuru_> trying to get live cd working
[03:59] <selfharm> viator, thanks
[04:00] <phaedrus44> bad burn NETGURU?
[04:00] <NetGuru_> but it wont boot on my pc
[04:00] <bimberi> javb: good luck
[04:00] <NetGuru_> hangs
[04:00] <bimberi> !attitude
[04:00] <Jamo> selfharm: try searching for a floppy boot to do just that?
[04:00] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:00] <javb> bimberi, thank you very much.
[04:00] <phaedrus44> what is yer pc NetGuru?.....
[04:00] <NetGuru_> hangs with "mounting root file system" drive
[04:01] <NetGuru_> on my friends pc no prb
[04:01] <selfharm> jamo, floppy?
[04:01] <selfharm> whats that?
[04:01] <Jamo> !floppy
[04:01] <ubotu> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[04:01] <poje> Jamo: honestly, I would try getting the jdk from sun's site and installing yourself - it'll be in a self contained dir from there and you can add symlinks/aliases to make it nice
[04:02] <pestilence> i'm using klibido with newshosting.  everytime i update a group it expires all the messages and comes up empty.  anybody know what the deal is?
[04:02] <javiolo> hi
[04:02] <viator> slefharm
[04:02] <JohnnyFive> I wish I could remember the name of the new OSX-style dock released for Ubuntu, I cant find the site now :(
[04:02] <viator> selfharm http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_restore_GRUB_menu_after_Windows_installation
[04:02] <javiolo> any ubuntu fluxbox user ? how do I manage gtk2 themes ?
[04:02] <poje> JohnnyFive: o0o I want a dock
[04:02] <fiveiron> anyone have an ati tv wonder pro?
[04:02] <fiveiron> and can you capture video from it using ANYTHING
[04:02] <NetGuru_> msi board 865 pe pentium 4 1gb ram 2.4 ghz
[04:03] <JohnnyFive> poje, there is a bunch of em, but there was a new one just released this week, I saw it when I was in class today, now I cant find the link
[04:03] <sproingie> some people like the dock?  wow.
[04:03] <sproingie> i find it the most annoying piece of gratuitous eye candy in osx
[04:04] <JohnnyFive> sproingie, i wasnt refering to the crappy Compiz dock
[04:04] <JohnnyFive> I like the starterbar in Gdesklets
[04:04] <basketcase3> Can anyone help me edit my xorg.conf file for an iMacG3?
[04:04] <poje> sproingie: meh, it is kinda nice
[04:05] <basketcase3> Anyone?
[04:05] <pestilence> Hexidigital, what's so hard about that?
[04:06] <Hexidigital> pestilence:: i can't find the files (besides /etc/inittab) that i need to edit
[04:06] <pestilence> Hexidigital, inittab is for other distros.
[04:06] <Hexidigital> ah... that could be a problem
[04:06] <pestilence> Hexidigital, you just need to remove the startup scripts from /etc/rc*.d/
[04:06] <bimberi> Hexidigital: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[04:06] <pestilence> Hexidigital, update-rc.d should help
[04:06] <pestilence> there ya go ;)
[04:06] <Hexidigital> thx bimberi and pestilence
[04:07] <Hexidigital> much appreicated
[04:07] <bimberi> np :)
[04:08] <gimmulf> Hi, anyone know what video-player to use when i want to play .3gp video files from nokia phone? video is showing fine but no sound
[04:08] <squidgy> viator:  unplugging the USB drive worked, so I'm back in business.  Thanks again.  Oddly enough, there seems to be no relevant BIOS settings.  The only that even refer to HDs are "enable SATA", the boot order menu, and a drive test menu.  Do you know of another non-BIOS way to avoid having to unplug my USB drives when I boot?
[04:08] <Meatwad> are usb keys supposed to work with ubuntu?
[04:09] <proxosi> noob question.. can ubuntu 5.10 be upgrade to 6.0 drapper?
[04:09] <viator> yeah probably edit fstab but im not sure in what manor
[04:09] <viator> ask in the forums
[04:10] <pestilence> Meatwad, most of them do.
[04:10] <viator> usb keys work
[04:10] <rpedro> !upgrade
[04:10] <viator> well most do
[04:10] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[04:10] <rpedro> proxosi: ^^
[04:10] <proxosi> oh ok
[04:10] <proxosi> is all 5.1 breezy? because i go the official disc and it doesnt state it
[04:11] <pestilence> proxosi, 5.10 is
[04:11] <pestilence> 5.1 doesn't exist ;)
[04:11] <Meatwad> my usb key shows up under  system -> administration -> disks, but how do I actually access it?
[04:12] <pestilence> probably in /media
[04:12] <viator> it should show up on desktop
[04:12] <viator> try places
[04:12] <rpedro> Meatwad: Places >> Computer probably
[04:12] <] grimm[> Does anyone know how I can mount a reiser partition that is encoded in euc-jp on my utf8 ubuntu machine?
[04:13] <Meatwad> it showed up on the desktop the first time....but never again  :(
[04:13] <Hexidigital> bimberi or pestilence ok... now that worked :) thx... but one more question... how can i set it so "startx" starts KDE instead of Gnome?
[04:13] <pestilence> Hexidigital, that's probably in .xsession
[04:13] <Hexidigital> pestilence:: will take a look.. thx
[04:13] <pestilence> Hexidigital, put startkde in ~/.xsession
[04:13] <dignome> hi all.  i'm missing 'connect' and not sure what package this is in.  -> "connect: command not found"
[04:14] <Geoffrey2> I am about to install Wine from the wine repository, Synaptic says the package cannot be authenticated...is that a problem, or is it safe to install it anyway?
[04:14] <Ada1> I am running ubuntu 6.06 and I am trying to get my wireless car working using the ndiswrapper but I haven't been able to get it to work
[04:14] <ceplm> dignome: apt-cache show connect -- is it what you want?
[04:15] <viator> try hexidigital why not startkde
[04:15] <viator> instead of startx
[04:15] <bimberi> Geoffrey2: that means the package hasn't been signed by any of the keys currently loaded into APT - probably just the ubuntu ones.  I've happily installed wine despite that warning
[04:15] <viator> whoops missed me
[04:16] <pestilence> viator, you need an xserver running before that command will work, don't you
[04:16] <dignome> ceplm: nope.  package not found.
[04:16] <dignome> it must be a part of some networking package...
[04:16] <Hexidigital> pestilence:: thank you very much.. i greatly appreciate your help
[04:16] <pestilence> Hexidigital, np
[04:17] <pestilence> dignome, what program are you running that produces this error
[04:17] <dignome> vde
[04:17] <ceplm> dignome: weird, you can run http://packages.ubuntu.com/connect
[04:17] <Ada1> I am running ubuntu 6.06 and I am trying to get my wireless card working using the ndiswrapper but I haven't been able to get it to work. I have a dell 9100 with  Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g wireless card.  Can any one help me set it up?
[04:18] <rmbrain> Does anybody know anything about GNUbuntu?
[04:18] <rmbrain> Anything extra?
[04:18] <ceplm> dignome: otherwise, you can try to search for it on http://packages.ubuntu.com (the form on the bottom allows you to search for packages by their content)
[04:18] <bimberi> !broadcom
[04:18] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[04:18] <dignome> ceplm: ok will do.  thank you.
[04:18] <ceplm> Ada1: ndiswrapper.sf.net
[04:19] <ceplm> Ada1: or try (as root) modprobe -v bcm43xx
[04:19] <ceplm> Ada1: what happens?
[04:19] <Ada1> have already followed the instruction on the web
[04:20] <viator> i guess if you want to have KDE as your window manager edit  ~/.xinitrc
[04:20] <Ada1> its says that Installed ndis drivers:
[04:20] <Ada1> bcmwl5a         driver present, hardware present
[04:20] <dli> Ada1, use bcm43xx
[04:20] <akira> can you recommend some good linux books?
[04:20] <ceplm> Ada1: ok, so what ifconfig wlan0 up does?
[04:20] <axs221> hi, I'm having trouble resuming from hibernation on my Gateway MX3228 laptop on Dapper, any suggestions?
[04:21] <Ada1> wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[04:21] <ceplm> Ada1: it is weird, because the message you get is from ndiswrapper, but you were trying bcm43xx
[04:22] <ceplm> try modprobe -r -v ndiswrapper; modprobe -r -v bcmr43xx
[04:22] <ceplm> what happens?
[04:22] <ceplm> Ada1: sorry the last module is bcm43xx
[04:22] <Ada1> FATAL: Module bcmr43xx not found.
[04:23] <axs221> the screen is blank when i try to resume from hibernation
[04:23] <ceplm> Ada1: the second command should read modprobe -r -v bcm43xx
[04:23] <arshoon> Oh great gurus of Ubuntu, I pray thee help me with my non-linx-using butt for I have installed the 64-bit server of Ubuntu and I can't get past the command line into any GUI
[04:23] <Ada1> rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/bcm43xx/bcm43xx.ko
[04:23] <Ada1> rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac.ko
[04:23] <Ada1> rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/net/ieee80211/ieee80211.ko
[04:23] <Ada1> rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt.ko
[04:23] <JohnnyFive> arshoon, that would be because the server doesnt come by default with a GUI
[04:24] <ceplm> Ada1: OK, so just to check
[04:24] <arshoon> oh? well that's kinda weird
[04:24] <ceplm> Ada1: lsmod | grep ndis
[04:24] <ceplm> Ada1: lsmod | grep bcm
[04:24] <ceplm> Ada1: what's the result
[04:24] <JohnnyFive> arshoon, most servers dont use a GUI
[04:24] <arshoon> everything is command line?
[04:24] <JohnnyFive> yes
[04:24] <Ada1> nothing
[04:24] <arshoon> hmmph
[04:24] <ceplm> Ada1: that's good!
[04:24] <arshoon> well that answers that
[04:25] <ceplm> Ada1: now run, modprobe -v bcm43xx
[04:25] <arshoon> I shall go forth and seek documentation then
[04:25] <JohnnyFive> arshoon, if you want gnome, type "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" iirc
[04:25] <Dvst8> lo all
[04:25] <Ada1> that gives me the same output insmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt.ko + 4lines
[04:26] <ceplm> Ada1: OK, now run ifconfig wlan0 up
[04:26] <Ada1> wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[04:26] <hoov> thank you all  again for you help :) the install was successful.  however, if I could ask another question, also display related.  after the install, I still can only get 640x480.  I took a look at the xorg.conf file that was created at install and in the "screen" and "monitor" sections there are listings for 1024x 768, 800x600 and 640x480, but I only see 640x480 as an option in gnome in the screen resolution settings.  any suggestions?
[04:27] <ceplm> OK, then we know that bcm43xx doesn't work; run modprobe -r -v bcm43xx to get rid off it.
[04:27] <arshoon> thanks Johnny, I'll try that
[04:27] <Ada1> rmmod /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/bcm43xx/bcm43xx.ko
[04:27] <Ada1> with 4 other lines
[04:28] <ceplm> Ada1: Next step is to install ndiswrapper -- go to aptitude (or whatever you use for package management) and install ndiswrapper-utils and all dependencies
[04:29] <ceplm> Ada1: then go to http://ndiswrapper.sf.net and learn more (sorry, it is kind of long)
[04:29] <Ada1> I already installed the ndsiwrapper
[04:30] <ceplm> Ada1: what you get with ndiswrapper -l?
[04:30] <Ada1> Installed ndis drivers:
[04:30] <Ada1> bcmwl5a         driver present, hardware present
[04:30] <ceplm> sorry, ndiswrapper -l (question mark is not part of the command)
[04:30] <ceplm> OK, modprobe -v ndiswrapper
[04:30] <arshoon> JohnnyFive, many thanks, it's installing as I type
[04:30] <ceplm> Ada1: and if everything seems to be all right, ifconfig wlan0 up
[04:31] <JohnnyFive> arshoon, ok just reboot after thats done and it should boot into the GUI
[04:31] <Ada1> it still didn't work
[04:31] <arshoon> JohnnyFive, again, my thanks.
[04:31] <ceplm> Ada1: what's the error message? "Didn't work" is good for nothing.
[04:32] <spades> Ada1 do an iwconfig and see which devices are listed
[04:32] <ceplm> Ada1: yeah, that too
[04:32] <Ada1> wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

[04:33] <interfear> how do i install an ansi font that will work with bitchx? i want to use the font in gnome-terminal
[04:33] <spades> bcm driver seems to take priority over ndiswrapper for you
[04:33] <Ada1> how do I uninstall the bcm driver?

[04:36] <tailsfan> Is it normal for WINE to download as one file?
[04:36] <ceplm> Ada1: OK, we have really messed things up; go to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and to the bottom write
[04:36] <cyberbaz1> hi , how do you convert rpm to deb ?
[04:36] <ceplm> blacklist bcm43xx
[04:37] <ceplm> cyberbaz1: alien(1)
[04:37] <cyberbaz1> alien does not work
[04:37] <interfear> so anyone here know to install an ansi font in ubuntu 6.06?
[04:37] <interfear> something that will work with bitchx
[04:37] <bimberi> tailsfan: it's one package file, yes
[04:37] <acke_> hey guys, I run 5.10 and tried to update to 6.06. I got this error. Failed to fetch http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[04:37] <acke_>  What can i do?
[04:37] <ceplm> Ada1: and you should probably reboot, because it is really messed up.

[04:41] <interfear> ok.. lemme try it..
[04:41] <cius> anyone by chance know how to make konqueror start at your homepage rather than with that stupid intro screen?
[04:41] <festr> just says tar error is not recoverable
[04:41] <festr> and thats it
[04:42] <selfharm> yes, snoops. i made sure of it.
[04:42] <ceplm> festr: why not to copy whole thing somewhere to the real harddrive and then unpack there?
[04:42] <Ada1> #This causes my wireless to fail

[04:43] <festr> ok will try
[04:43] <cius> okay, take that back, that got rid of the info screen, but it still doesn't start at my homepage
[04:43] <__Caleb_> heh Blv3Watyr you in north carolina?
[04:43] <Warbo> chaitu: I don't think the "z" is needed (makes a more generic command for tar, tar.gz and tar.bz2)
[04:43] <Blv3Watyr> sure am
[04:43] <Ada1> should I restart?
[04:43] <__Caleb_> haha me too
[04:44] <__Caleb_> what city
[04:44] <chaitu> ya correct
[04:44] <festr> they gotta work on their manuals
[04:44] <festr> they assume a lot more than a new user would know
[04:44] <festr> vmware not ubuntu
[04:44] <Blv3Watyr> morehead city
[04:44] <__Caleb_> ahh nice
[04:44] <__Caleb_> Pembroke here

[04:44] <Blv3Watyr> oh not far
[04:44] <selfharm> err, one blue screen, one gave me a dll error, i repaired windows on the dll error, now i need to get grub reinstalled : \ - but i just started tonight with a brand new 300gig, installed windows on a 20gig partition ntfs, installed ubuntu on a 20gig partition ext3, and created a 260gig fat32
[04:44] <festr> thank you guys for helping
[04:44] <ceplm> Ada1: OK, cool -- just reboot to clean up the mess; try also echo "alias eth1 ndiswrapper" >> /etc/modprobe.d/wireless and then reboot -- ndiswrapper should be loaded automagically
[04:45] <__Caleb_> Blv3Watyr: just installing ubuntu?
[04:45] <Blv3Watyr> eh.. using suse.. have ubuntu on hold

[04:47] <Blv3Watyr> it will still be vague and blurry, but only better solution is to get new pics.. no solution for tiny images
[04:47] <ceplm> Ada1: no, you should do it as reall root -- sudo sh -l and then do it (your command was writing as normal user)
[04:48] <[Ex0r] > guy in #gimp said to get a plug-in to do it

[04:48] <chaitu> sudo su
[04:48] <Kirk> I think I know what I'm doing, but stand ready. :P
[04:48] <Warbo> Anyone know how to set up freepops?
[04:49] <ceplm> chaitu: sudo (in ubuntu) requires your password, su root's password (which doesn't exist per default)
[04:49] <Kirk> brb
[04:49] <chaitu> ceplm, thank u
[04:49] <tailsfan> Are there any programs that can recognize webcams?
[04:49] <ceplm> chaitu: you're welcome
[04:49] <Ada1> I will restart
[04:50] <ceplm> Ada1: good luck!
[04:50] <cius> [Ex0r] , unless you're planning on adding detail through procedural means, you're still going to have to create the missing data by hand.  There is no magic way to scale a low res image to higher res and add detail.  To do so without adding detail fairly defeats teh purpose of a hi-res texture.

[04:53] <cius> [Ex0r] , depending on the resp;ution you're working with, you might get some approximated detail by approximating the color of new pixels, but it will likely result in a slightly blurry image, nothing sharp.

[04:56] <ceplm> chaitu: why do you need to do it?
[04:56] <cius> [Ex0r] , I dare say that they'll still look like they were made in 95.  sampling up to scale won't give you more detail.  best case scanrio would be to run some filter or other procedural on it.  Could give you new effects, but its not going to go from old and busted to new hotness.  :-/

[04:57] <ceplm> universee: I don't think so, or if so nothing that much important
[04:57] <chaitu> ceplm, just communication
[04:57] <ceplm> universee: FreeBSD is Unix, whereas most of the stuff in Linux is slightly different

[05:00] <SurfnKid> Matetonto, howd ya get wpa going
[05:00] <cius> [Ex0r] , I do remember hearing something a while back about using procedural methods to extract detail out of low-res pics, but I'm not sure about the status of such algorithms these days.  I remember seeing a demo using a cell phone pic of a construction sign.  Almost unreadable in native form, but after the procedures ran on it you could read it no problem.  So maybe it is possible, I just don't know if it can be done for free.  :-)

[05:01] <cius> I still say the new textures would look just as cartoony though, so depending on your needs...
[05:02] <ceplm> ext2 has nothing to do with networking and I am afraid that it is based on UFS as much as it is based on FAT -- both are filesystems.

[05:09] <fdsd> hey guys, how do I make echo display data on another line like for example:  echo "test1 test2"  how do I make test1 appear above test2?
[05:09] <fdsd> test1
[05:09] <fdsd> test2
[05:09] <fdsd> like that
[05:09] <FunnyLookinHat> fdsd, echo "test1\ntest2"
[05:09] <FunnyLookinHat> \n = newline
[05:10] <festr> ubuntu is kinda pretty
[05:10] <festr> nicer than i expected
[05:10] <ceplm> fdsd: echo -e "test1\ntest2"
[05:10] <fdsd> thanks
[05:10] <gh0st> dr_willis_, says network manager isn't available in any software channels, I don't have any way of getting internet access to the ubuntu box, i'm IRCing from another machine
[05:10] <gh0st> i have the dapper drake CD added in the repositories, that's how I installed ndiswrapper
[05:11] <dr_willis_> gh0st,  sorry to hear that - it made my wireless actually WORK. :) for once in the year ive had my laptop..

[05:13] <Ada1> eth1 is up
[05:13] <revilot> anyone in here familiar with midi / music editing on Linux
[05:13] <gh0st> also, on the wiki, "Sometimes ndiswrapper is used prematurely. There may be a native driver that comes with Ubuntu which is taking the primary driver position and conflicting with ndiswrapper. For more information on this, go to the WirelessTroubleshootingGuide and view the step on device drivers.", this sounds almost right, since the wireless card was showing up as eth0 before I did anything with ndiswrapper, but the link is dead

[05:15] <jeff_> hey guys
[05:15] <jeff_> does anybody have guifications working in gaim 2.0 beta 3?
[05:15] <liquidboy> hey, trying to upgrade, is there any way that i can just upgrade from the cd (ie, not have to download heaps of stuff - i'm on dialup)
[05:15] <tritium> acke_: you know you can query ubotu in private, yes?
[05:16] <acke_> tritium I had no idea.
[05:16] <acke_> tritium how?
[05:16] <acke_> whisper_
[05:16] <acke_> ?
[05:16] <Ada1> I am running ubuntu 6.06 and I am trying to get my wireless card working using the ndiswrapper but I haven't been able to get it to work. I have a dell 9100 with Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g wireless card. Can any one help me set it up?
[05:16] <tritium> acke_: /query ubotu, and then ask away, just like here, but without the leading !
[05:16] <Ada1> I have already installed the ndiswrapper
[05:17] <Ada1> and the drivers
[05:17] <Ada1> but it isn't working
[05:17] <acke_> ill try to remeber thanks
[05:17] <tritium> acke_: it'll cut down on the traffic in here, so I won't have to Zidane you in the chest
[05:17] <acke_> trinitum hahahah
[05:17] <acke_> trinitum its all the italian guys fault anyways
[05:17] <revilot> anyone in here familiar with midi / music editing on Linux
[05:18] <FunnyLookinHat> ubuntu-offtopic!
[05:18] <FunnyLookinHat> ; )
[05:18] <tritium> acke_: nah, there was no excuse for it, whatever was said
[05:18] <FunnyLookinHat> !broadcom
[05:18] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[05:18] <FunnyLookinHat> Ada1, did you follow that doc ?
[05:19] <acke_> its much than couldve been said that deservers much worse than a small headbutt
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> Usually if you follow the docs line for line you get a working solution...   usually :-
[05:19] <Ada1> yes...I was getting help a few min ago and he told me to restart
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> and the restart didn't work obviously, heh.
[05:19] <FunnyLookinHat> hmm
[05:20] <revilot> does ndiswrapper only work for wireless cards, and if so is there anything similar for other hardware
[05:20] <Matetonto> wenass
[05:20] <tritium> acke_: aside from being offtopic, nothing deserves a violent response
[05:20] <Ada1> eth1 is up now but I am unable to do anything with it
[05:20] <Ada1> I can't assign an ssid to it
[05:20] <acke_> :)
[05:20] <FunnyLookinHat> Ada1, are you using network-manager?
[05:20] <Ada1> no
[05:20] <Ada1> iwconfig eth1 essid
[05:21] <Ada1> I am not sure if it is working
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> Ada1, try commenting out all of the lines referring to eth1 (wireless I assume) in your /etc/network/interfaces file and doing sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[05:21] <theapoc> Can some kind individual tell me where I need to put this line in order for it to be executed everytime I boot "xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 8 9 4 5 6 7 10 11 12 13""
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> Well it's a good way to test, as network-manager works very wll with setting up wireless connections
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> theapoc, boot, or login?
[05:22] <theapoc> login will be fine
[05:22] <theapoc> I put it in /etc/X11/xinit/~.Xmodmap
[05:22] <revilot> does ndiswrapper only work for wireless cards, and if so is there anything similar for other hardware
[05:22] <FunnyLookinHat> theapoc, System - Preferences - Sessions
[05:22] <theapoc> but apparently it doesn't go there
[05:22] <acke_> tritium, well if im trying to stick to the topic I still get the error mess when im reload or when I am trying to install dapper, it is shown here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17879
[05:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Go to Statup Programs
[05:22] <spades> theapoc ~/.Xmodmap
[05:23] <theapoc> spades: I have it in there too.
[05:23] <jeff_> does anybody have guifications working in gaim 2.0 beta 3?
[05:24] <tritium> acke_: when you reload what?
[05:24] <acke_> tritium in the package handler application
[05:24] <revilot> if im going to update my fglrx driver do i need to have it blacklisted first so it doesnt mess with restricted modules?
[05:24] <acke_> tritium synaptic
[05:24] <spades> theapoc are you doing multiple mouse buttons?
[05:25] <acke_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17880
[05:25] <acke_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17881
[05:25] <theapoc> spades: I have a mx310, I think it has 9 buttons
[05:26] <spades> theapoc i have /etc/X11/Xsession.d/57xmodmap  calling the xmodmap -e stuff and chmod+x it
[05:26] <tritium> acke_: 17880 is simply a warning that you have duplicate lines in /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:26] <spades> theapoc owned by root so use sudo or whatever you prefer to get root
[05:26] <theapoc> spades: ok thanks
[05:26] <tritium> acke_: I'd start by cleaning up your sources.list, eliminating duplicates
[05:26] <acke_> tritium aye, but then the first problem still remains
[05:26] <Whil> kxdocker?
[05:26] <Ada1> I installed the network-manager package
[05:27] <tritium> acke_: have you already removed duplicates?
[05:27] <tritium> Ada1: if you're using gnome, you might want the gnome version as well
[05:28] <revilot> if im going to update my fglrx driver do i need to have it blacklisted first so it doesnt mess with restricted modules?
[05:28] <Ada1> tritium: I am not sure what you mean
[05:28] <cocox> hi, somebody knows how can i get an ascii value from some input with a console command???
[05:29] <tritium> Ada1: there is a network-manager-gnome package
[05:29] <Ada1> I installed it
[05:30] <Frostbite> hi all, i am trynig to create a server on my computer... i am unsure of exactly how to do that... could anybody help me out please?
[05:30] <tritium> Frostbite: what kind of server?
[05:30] <acerunus> how do i extract a tar.bz2 file
[05:30] <Frostbite> i have a website i own, i want to put it onto my system so i can do it all myself
[05:31] <spades> tar xjf file
[05:31] <festr> anyone here use easyubuntu
[05:31] <festr> im getting an error your sources.list does nto match your system configuration
[05:32] <Ada1> FunnyLookinHat: what do I do next?
[05:32] <festr> its a clean system all i did was apply the upgrades that it requested
[05:32] <festr> What should i do?
[05:32] <revilot> can anyone tell me how to properly install a new ati driver...do I need to install restricted modules first or what
[05:33] <acerunus> how do i extract a tar.bz2 file
[05:33] <tritium> revilot: you should already have restricted modules installed.  Which kernel do you use?
[05:33] <revilot> there are updates showing up for the kernel, restricted modules, and ati fglrx driver
[05:34] <p47_> acerunus: tar -zxvf file
[05:34] <Desh> Using wlassistant is basically like wusing iwconfig in the terminal, right? Except in this case wlassistant takes what you enters and does the appropriate iwconfig commands intself?
[05:34] <lecaros> hi guys
[05:34] <tritium> revilot: so you've already installed it?  Then you have nothing to do
[05:34] <acerunus> p47_, that is not working srry
[05:34] <revilot> tritium: kernel wants to update to 2.6.15-26-386
[05:34] <Frostbite> how do you private message one here? i havent figured it out :)
[05:35] <revilot> tritium: no i havent installed the updates yet
[05:35] <Desh> Frostbite: you need to register your nick 1st
[05:35] <cocox>  somebody knows if there is a way to get ascii values of some typed characters input with a console command???
[05:35] <p47_> acerunus: did you try to make that whitgraphic mode ?
[05:35] <revilot> tritium: i installed them on my dekstop last night and it borked my ati driver
[05:35] <acerunus> p47_,  i am lost i am in a blank gnome terminal and it wont let me do it srry
[05:35] <tritium> revilot: so you've never gotten it to work?
[05:35] <festr> that stinks
[05:35] <Frostbite> Desh- how do i go about that?
[05:35] <revilot> tritium: gotten what to work
[05:35] <festr> wonder how it can ruin its own sources
[05:36] <festr> with just the default install and upgrades it asked for
[05:36] <p47_> acerunus: ok wait !
[05:36] <acerunus> ok
[05:36] <tritium> revilot: the fglrx driver
[05:36] <Desh> Frostbite: I think: /nickserv register <pass>
[05:36] <revilot> tritium: yes its working now but theres an update listed
[05:37] <Desh> Has anyone gotten fglrx to work?
[05:37] <Desh> That's the question.
[05:37] <tritium> Desh: sure, many people
[05:37] <Desh> Well fglrx hates me.
[05:37] <tritium> revilot: if it's working, you're in good shape.  Just allow the update to happen.
[05:37] <Desh> HATES
[05:37] <Frostbite> Desh: using the chat window?
[05:37] <basis> where is the xorg.conf file kept?  (and why isn't it ~?)
[05:37] <Desh> Frostbire: Yes sir.
[05:37] <Desh> basis: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:37] <revilot> tritium: i did that last night on my other machine and it screwed up my 3d accleration...somehow i had mesa installed
[05:37] <acerunus> what is the problem how do i extract that file
[05:38] <basis> thx
[05:38] <Desh> revilot: Mesa comes standard.
[05:38] <revilot> Desh: Im aware of that
[05:38] <vandit2k7> Hi I have a question about amarok can anybody help me out???
[05:38] <revilot> Desh: why would I want mesa when i can run fglrx
[05:38] <Desh> revilot: On my laptop mesa never leaves, even with fglrx it says mesa is my openfl renderer
[05:38] <Desh> revilot: I dunno, I wish I could kill mesa and force fglrx to work, but you need mesa as a backup.
[05:38] <tritium> revilot: I'll be back...
[05:39] <p47_> acerunus: bzip2 -cd file.tar.bz2
[05:39] <Ada1>  I am running ubuntu 6.06 and I am trying to get my wireless card working using the ndiswrapper but I haven't been able to get it to work. I have a dell 9100 with Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g wireless card. Can any one help me set it up?
[05:39] <slowz3r> anyone know how i can make my terminal transparent or set it so the terminal is the background
[05:39] <Desh> Ada1: What are you having trouble with?
[05:39] <revilot> Desh: are you saying with fglrxinfo it still lists mesa?
[05:39] <Ada1> I installed the ndiswrapper and installed the drivers
[05:39] <Desh> revilot: yup, and thus, glxgears runs slow as hella.
[05:39] <Ada1> but it doesnt work
[05:40] <revilot> Desh: what card do you have
[05:40] <Desh> Ada1: type ndiswrapper -l
[05:40] <p47_> clear
[05:40] <Desh> that's an L
[05:40] <Desh> revilot: Mobility Radeon 9700
[05:40] <Ada1> ndiswrapper -l
[05:40] <Ada1> Installed ndis drivers:
[05:40] <Ada1> bcmwl5a         driver present, hardware present
[05:40] <Desh> Ada1, you want the easy way or the hard way? :)
[05:40] <Whil> gtk ndiswrapper :)
[05:40] <Ada1> hardway...I think I tried the easy way
[05:41] <Desh> Ada1, ok, do you need a WEP key?
[05:41] <Ada1> yes
[05:41] <revilot> Desh: i got fglrx to work on my ati200m using this method: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html
[05:41] <cocox> somebody knows if there is a way to get ascii values of some typed characters input with a console command???
[05:41] <Ada1> I don't need a WEP key at the moment
[05:41] <festr> anyone here use easyubuntu?
[05:41] <Belzar> Desh: this is frostbite, it said this time to wait 30 seconds before using register again
[05:42] <Ada1> there is an open wireless network that I am testing it on
[05:42] <Desh> revilot: thanks, I'll book mark and try it, I'm so desperae man, tried for months, and I want to be able to play games!! :(!!! Hehehe.
[05:42] <Desh> Ada1, ok at a termina, type: iwlist scan
[05:42] <Desh> And name me the things there, like eth1, eth0, wlan0, etc
[05:43] <Desh> Belzar: o_O It didn't register the nick?
[05:44] <tale> I used to have software 1 for two disks.  I decided to kill the raid partition and use both disks like normal, but each time I reboot, md0 is grabbing one fo the disks.  Can somebody tell me how to remove the process that mounts the md0 drive at boot?
[05:44] <Ada1> lo eth0 eth1:(Cell 01 Cell02) sit0
[05:44] <Belzar> Desh: the first one was already taken... it said to wait 30 seconds this time then it registered it... i think under Belzaar though... the private messaging is still unknown to me
[05:44] <Ada1> I do see the router
[05:44] <alindeman> Anyone know what package to install to resolve this Java error?
[05:44] <Desh> Belzar: as long as you register it you can PM
[05:44] <Heretician> Is it possible to install a copy of ubuntu from one hard drive to another? I have the ISO of ubuntu (w/ windows xp) and I am wanting to install it on another hard drive (w/ windows 98, also wanting to take that out :))
[05:44] <alindeman> Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Cannot load AWT toolkit: gnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.GtkToolkit
[05:45] <alindeman> I know, some GTK thing, but I can't easily find it, apparently
[05:45] <Desh> Ada1: what is your extension for wireless? wlan0 or eth1?
[05:45] <Ada1> eth1
[05:45] <tale> I have removed the md0 line from /etc/fstab
[05:45] <tale> what have I missed?
[05:45] <Whil> ndis lists broadcoms at eth1 regardless.
[05:45] <Whil> or eth something
[05:45] <vandit2k7> Hi can anybody help me with amarok please. Thank you
[05:45] <Desh> Ada1: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid 'nameofinternetthingy'
[05:46] <Ada1> I thought it would be wlan0 from the documentation I read but apparently its eth1
[05:46] <Desh> Ada1: Yeah it depends, mine is eth1 also.
[05:46] <Ada1> Desh: done
[05:46] <Desh> Ada1: iwconfig
[05:46] <Whil> ada1: my broadcom is eth1 too don't know why. could be a ndiswrapper thing
[05:46] <Desh> Ada1: Check that it says the nme of your network, not off/any
[05:46] <Ada1> Desh:eth1      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:off/any
[05:47] <Desh> Hmm, try it again: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid 'ESSID'
[05:47] <tale> vandit2k7, what do you wanna know?
[05:47] <vandit2k7> hi tale
[05:47] <vandit2k7> I am having problem playing sound with amarok
[05:47] <vandit2k7> I am using gnome
[05:47] <vandit2k7> well ubuntu
[05:47] <tale> vandit2k7, what kind of file?
[05:48] <tale> vandit2k7, do you have sound at all?
[05:48] <Ada1> Desh: eth1      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:"MASTER"
[05:48] <vandit2k7> its not about a file......well its a .pls file from di.fm but the real problem is that I have audigy 2 zs pcmcia card in my laptop
[05:48] <vandit2k7> rythmbox plays it
[05:48] <Belzar> Desh: I understand I am able to... but is there a special command for it that I am not aware of?
[05:48] <Kirk> Hey, question.
[05:48] <Desh> Ada1: sudo dhclient eth1
[05:48] <vandit2k7> but amarok doesn't produce any actual sound
[05:48] <tale> vandit2k7, so you do have sound?
[05:48] <Heretician> Is it possible to install a copy of ubuntu from one hard drive to another? I have the ISO of ubuntu (w/ windows xp) and I am wanting to install it on another hard drive (w/ windows 98, also wanting to take that out :))
[05:48] <Desh> Ada1: that sould be it
[05:48] <Kirk> I'm trying to install some stuff on a server remotely... using apt-get.  Is there any way I can avoid needing to insert the CD?  :|
[05:48] <vandit2k7> yes but not with amarok
[05:49] <Kirk> I am using Ubuntu Breezy Badger.
[05:49] <Flannel> Kirk: remove the CD from your repositories
[05:49] <Kirk> How?  (Sorry, I'm new to this.)
[05:49] <Desh> Belzar: after registering, type: /msg nickserv identify <pass>, that lets you identify yourself for PMs
[05:49] <Flannel> Kirk: you comfortable with the command line?
[05:49] <tale> vandit2k7, what kind of files are in the pls file?  mp3, aac?
[05:49] <vandit2k7> yea mp3
[05:49] <vandit2k7> well u know di.fm
[05:49] <vandit2k7> its like radio
[05:49] <Kirk> Flannel: Yes, I can use the command line.  In fact that's all I have in SSH.  I just need to know where it is located so I can edit it.
[05:49] <tale> you may need to enable mp3 support
[05:49] <vandit2k7> I can see the time scrolling
[05:49] <[Ex0r] > anyone here use xchat ?
[05:50] <Ada1> I got an IP address
[05:50] <vandit2k7> but it doesn't actually produce any sound
[05:50] <Flannel> Kirk: /etc/apt/sources.list, then comment out the CD line. (with #)
[05:50] <Desh> Ada1: Try to like google: ping www.google.com
[05:50] <vandit2k7> why does rythmbox work then
[05:50] <tale> rythmbox is gnome, amarok is kde
[05:50] <vandit2k7> yes
[05:50] <Desh> Ada1: Or just try your web browser. :)
[05:50] <tale> they probably use different engines
[05:50] <vandit2k7> so what do I need to do
[05:50] <vandit2k7> exactly
[05:50] <vandit2k7> but
[05:50] <tale> just a sec, let me find the link
[05:50] <vandit2k7> whats the other good player
[05:50] <vandit2k7> for gnome
[05:51] <Desh> XMMS
[05:51] <vandit2k7> yea
[05:51] <Kirk> Flannel:  That should work.  Thanks.
[05:51] <Desh> Best player. :)
[05:51] <vandit2k7> really
[05:51] <vandit2k7> is it like winamp
[05:51] <Desh> My favorite.
[05:51] <vandit2k7> lol
[05:51] <tale> vandit2k7, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[05:51] <Heretician> Is it possible to install a copy of ubuntu from one hard drive to another? I have the ISO of ubuntu (w/ windows xp) and I am wanting to install it on another hard drive (w/ windows 98, also wanting to take that out :))
[05:51] <piratepenguin> xine can use different engines I think. arts and xine I think...
[05:51] <Flannel> Kirk: remember to update
[05:51] <tale> vandit2k7,  it has info for enabling mp3 for both kde and gnome apps
[05:51] <Kirk> Flannel: Doing so now.
[05:51] <Ada1> Desh: It didn't work
[05:51] <Desh> Yes. Xmms is like winamp, and it supports wma, mp3, mp4, etc (as long as you download the codecs) :)
[05:51] <tale> xmms is just like winamp
[05:51] <vandit2k7> ok thank u tale
[05:51] <piratepenguin> *AMAROK can use different engines I think. arts and xine I think...
[05:51] <Belzar> Desh: haha sorry to be blind here... but i got that, anything else? or the command i use to send the PM?
[05:52] <Kirk> Flannel: Ran apt-get update, now running apt-get upgrade.
[05:52] <blind> Sorry to be belzar in here..
[05:52] <Desh> Ada1: type in iwconfig and PM the output to me.
[05:52] <tale> xmms works good for pls files
[05:52] <Desh> Belzar: That should be it, double click on the user's name and it'll open the PM window
[05:52] <tale> anybody know anything about software raid?
[05:53] <Kirk> Tale: Only that I've been told it can be dangerous.
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > Anyone here using xchat ?
[05:53] <Kirk> Ex0r: Using Trillian.
[05:53] <tale> [Ex0r] , yes
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > kirk your on windows ?
[05:53] <tale> it works great
[05:53] <Kirk> Ex0r: Yes.
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > tale, do you have problems with your /ignore working ?
[05:54] <[Ex0r] > Mines not working at all
[05:54] <Kirk> Ex0r: I'm a Unix\Ubuntu noob to be honest.
[05:54] <Whil> [Ex0r] : konversation
[05:54] <Warbo> Anyone have experience with YoSucker? It has put my Yahoo mail into a file and I want to access it with Evolution (maybe set up a POP server?)
[05:54] <revilot> i have xorg-driver-fglrx AND xserver-xorg-driver-ati installed.  Is that ok or should i uninstall one
[05:54] <tale> [Ex0r] , I haven't tried using it, sorry.
[05:54] <Desh> revilot: Leave them
[05:54] <piratepenguin> revilot: should be ok
[05:54] <[Ex0r] > I've added this person 3 different ways, and ignore isn't working at all
[05:54] <Desh> revilot: the other one is the open source driver, you can falback to it if fglrx gets hucked up.
[05:55] <revilot> Desh: seems weird to have 2 drivers installed
[05:55] <Desh> revilot: as long as both arn't being used.
[05:55] <Desh> I spelled aren't wrong :)
[05:55] <revilot> How do i test that
[05:55] <Desh> revilot: terminal: fglrxinfo
[05:55] <Desh> revilot: if it says ATI blah blah, then you are fine.
[05:56] <revilot> ok
[05:56] <revilot> thx
[05:56] <Desh> revilot: you probably have maybe 5-15 video drivers installed actually.
[05:56] <revilot> hmm
[05:56] <Desh> revilot: Ubuntu will use the one it's specified to use for a specific screen.
[05:56] <revilot> ok

[06:03] <Desh> Ada1: replace pass with the password you want
[06:03] <abu_ama3ma> Belzar, install apache first of all
[06:04] <] grimm[> if I can't do it directly, is it possible to do something like setting up a chroot with a different locale and mount the drive in the chroot and then convert the encoding on the files and folders?

[06:05] <Ada1> Desh: I am registerd and I PM my results
[06:06] <Meatwad> i'm coming from windows and I used Trillian (instant messenger) with a minimalist theme; GAIMs default skin is entirely too big; is there a way to change the skin, or is there another AIM compatible linux IM client?
[06:06] <Desh> Ada1: ok talk to me there.
[06:06] <spinn12> SiS graphics problems.  Anyone feeling gutsy?
[06:08] <spinn12> Anyone?
[06:09] <_bbandit> is it possible to exclude some packages completely from the update manager, or do i have to uncheck the packages i don't want every time there's an update ?
[06:09] <Belzar> Ok, after installing apache, what would i have to do to start hosting my own site?
[06:10] <fdsd> how do I do ls and list everything except the word "file"?
[06:10] <CarlFK> what package has the play command?
[06:11] <CarlFK> or, what is the most basic way to play a .wav to test sound drivers ?
[06:11] <BHSPitMonkey> hi, my sound just stopped working... what can I do to "jump-start" it without having to reboot?
[06:11] <devhen> lol spinn12 wish i could help :)
[06:11] <spinn12> Me too devhen.  I'm googled out.
[06:12] <BHSPitMonkey> never mind. it was firefox's fault. :D
[06:12] <Whil> what is Sis spinn12?
[06:12] <Geoffrey2> is there any kind of wine support forum on this network?
[06:12] <Desh> What does the ls command do?
[06:12] <spinn12> another type of chipset.  Like ATI or Nvidia.
[06:12] <spinn12> Desh ls is to list
[06:12] <spinn12> it lists the contents of a folder, etc.
[06:12] <acebo> Okay, so, I just installed samba and smbfs, does the samba daemon need to be running if I only want to connect to other Windows file shares, not make my own?
[06:13] <dr_willis_> #wine-hq I think
[06:13] <Whil> spinn12: thanks
[06:13] <Desh> spinn12: oh ok, thanks
[06:13] <dr_willis_> acebo,  i dont think so. gnome has its own samba browser feature of its file manager that you can use.
[06:13] <acebo> hrm, really? I was looking through synaptic.. it's build-in?
[06:14] <CarlFK> Geoffrey2: #winehq
[06:14] <acebo> Well I'll be darned. Thanks dr willis.. sure enough, under Placees.
[06:14] <acebo> Places, even
[06:15] <Geoffrey2> CarlFK, thanks :)
[06:15] <Desh> Why use ls when dir does the same thing?
[06:15] <Lukian>  how do I determine what cpu a box has from the terminal?
[06:15] <Desh> Or vice versa
[06:16] <spinn12> Desh...not sure.  I've never used dir
[06:16] <Desh> spinn12: dir is the same except in white - no colors :(
[06:16] <acebo> Any idea how to log in? When I surf to the Samba shares, it doesn't give an oppertunity to enter user/pass..
[06:16] <spinn12> Ahh
[06:16] <spinn12> Well, there's your answer then...lol.  If you want codes, use ls
[06:17] <Desh> :(! fglrx, why do you have me?

[06:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto

[06:19] <Desh> Yes.
[06:19] <acebo> I'm on a 10x7 15.1 not-so-wide..
[06:19] <garryF> Isn't so easy on the eyes either.
[06:19] <dr_willis_> Dapper saw/set up my laptops wide screen fine. :) amazed me.
[06:19] <acebo> And that's native >=/
[06:19] <dr_willis_> could use that x modeline generator webv site to get the proper modeline
[06:19] <Redrose> i want both of them done, but only one to be the one that uses the internet
[06:19] <Whil> my wide screen set up just fine too
[06:20] <acebo> Redrose: Hrm.. that's a harder one.. what two interfaces are they? Wireless and wired?
[06:20] <Redrose> 2 wireless, eth1 and ath0
[06:20] <Desh> My 15 inch was set to 1040x1050, :) which is my max.
[06:20] <garryF> maybe ifconfig?
[06:20] <BeOSMrX> I need some help. I'd like to run a command and keep on making it repeat after it's done, like in a loop until I cancel it
[06:20] <dr_willis_> heh - thats awful high res for a 15 in.
[06:20] <martynda> hi, how do i pick a previous version of the kernel to boot to? currently have 2.6.15-26, need to boot to 15-25
[06:21] <dr_willis_> BeOSMrX,  what kind of command?
[06:21] <bob1973> anyone use a tablet pc in kubuntu that could help me?
[06:21] <Whil> martynda: have you tried escape when grub loads?
[06:21] <Desh> martynda: at the boot screen, press ESC
[06:21] <garryF> Hmm, Download the previous kernel and it should show up in your boot manager be it grub or lilo
[06:21] <Desh> martynda: then choose the oe you want. :)
[06:21] <martynda> ok, thanks :)
[06:21] <BeOSMrX> like a terminal command, like wget and then make it re-start after it's done
[06:22] <garryF> I like Desh's ander better than mine.
[06:22] <BeOSMrX> or maybe if the file be saved to 'dev/null' or something to make it not be saved, just downloaded if you know what I mean
[06:22] <dr_willis_> BeOSMrX,  Hmm...  could use some simple bash script to do that.. not sure WHY you would want to... :)
[06:22] <Ada1> Desh: IT WORKS :)   one more thing, is it possible to do WPA encryption?

[06:22] <BeOSMrX> dr_willis_ yes, I'd like to test my download speed
[06:22] <BeOSMrX> over time
[06:23] <tripppy> where do i get the min. specs listing for dapper?
[06:23] <Desh> Ada1: yes, sudo iwconfig eth1 key restricted <WEP/WPA key>
[06:23] <garryF> There are sites to test your speed.

[06:24] <Desh> Does fglr support the ATI Mbility 9700
[06:24] <derrickh> the dvi is set as primary by default
[06:24] <Desh> *fglrx
[06:24] <garryF> LoL
[06:24] <derrickh> but i want the vga to be
[06:24] <garryF> Ive had it do that before.
[06:24] <dr_willis_> derrickh,  this is on ati or nvidia?
[06:24] <derrickh> ati
[06:25] <dr_willis_> derrickh,  mine is the opposite (nvidia, and the DANG Analog out is default.. not DVI. :P)

[06:26] <Kirk> Help.
[06:26] <Kirk> Installing something.
[06:26] <Kirk> Package postfix-tls is a virtual package provided by:
[06:26] <Kirk>   postfix 2.2.4-1ubuntu2.1
[06:26] <Kirk> You should explicitly select one to install.
[06:26] <Kirk> E: Package postfix-tls has no installation candidate
[06:26] <dr_willis_> Ignite_,  it will pay to spend an hr or so reading a bash titorual or guide or 3.. NO it wont be permenet.
[06:26] <dr_willis_> Ignite_,  for that you edit your .bashrc or .bash_profile
[06:26] <Nameeater> I have a perl firewall script, how can I make it start with every boot?
[06:26] <spinn12> Got the wireless working, got everything else working...just can't get the display right.
[06:27] <dr_willis_> Perl Firewall?
[06:27] <Kirk> You need to make an entry in init.d
[06:27] <Kirk> I think
[06:27] <derrickh> well ive installed the drivers and the driver interface changes nothing when i use it
[06:27] <dr_willis_> theres some rc.local init.d service I thought.. but never used it.
[06:27] <derrickh> so ive done everything through the fglrxconfig
[06:27] <Ignite_> dr_willis_, i thought as much, i'm not a newbie, just never needed to both with that, i was trying things like "$PATH += whatever" lol
[06:27] <dr_willis_> Ignite_,  heh -  Bash 101 :)
[06:28] <Ignite_> :)
[06:28] <derrickh> but cant change it.  ive tried finding which exact field was the primary monitor setting but couldnt find it
[06:28] <Kirk> Never mind the installation error.  I just removed that line.
[06:28] <Kirk> It's fine now.
[06:28] <Kirk> :)
[06:28] <Kirk> I'll let you know if I need anything else
[06:28] <spinn12> Doc, nevermind my left leg.  I removed it and it's fine now ;)
[06:28] <derrickh> is this setting outside xorg.conf
[06:28] <dr_willis_> derrickh,  ya proberly have to find some optios that the ati driver uses to change it.
[06:29] <derrickh> well the interface is very limited
[06:29] <derrickh> i tweaked the settings it generated for the xorg.conf but couldnt find what to change to switch the vga to primary
[06:29] <Desh> How do I find out if my laptop is set up to use 2 monitors?
[06:29] <tripppy> is 4.3 gig too small for a dapper install?
[06:29] <derrickh> i thought maybe it was handled in another file
[06:29] <Desh> derrickh: 2 monitors?
[06:30] <QMario> Hello everybody!!! :)
[06:30] <derrickh> yes
[06:30] <garryF> It would list both monitors in the xorg.conf
[06:30] <Desh> K menu - > System Settings - > Display - > Administrator - >  Hardware Tab
[06:30] <spinn12> tripppy: should be fine
[06:30] <garryF> as for how to set that up, I don't recall.
[06:30] <derrickh> but ive tried switching and nothing
[06:31] <garryF> !monitors
[06:31] <ubotu> I know nothing about monitors - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:31] <Desh> derrickh: that should let you switch primary and secondary
[06:31] <dr_willis_> I recall that the mepis live cd had a nice tool to set up dual monitors..
[06:31] <dr_willis_> ubuntu needs to 'borrow' it :)
[06:31] <Desh> How do I know if my laptop is setup to sue 2 monitors? it shows a seconds unknown monitor in the Display Tab.
[06:31] <derrickh> what about g
[06:31] <dr_willis_> Desh,  i would guess its not set up to use 2.
[06:32] <derrickh> where are the display settings for gmu?
[06:32] <tripppy> ive got a dapper cd from shipit. i leave the installer on all the defaults and installs but never finsihes, and freezes up the PC.
[06:32] <Desh> dr_willis_: why would a 2nd one appear there then?
[06:32] <fowlduck> how can i customize the splash screen?
[06:32] <dr_willis_> Desh,  its seeing it.. its not configured to USE it.
[06:33] <DonL> How do you change the start up / shut down screens. I've dumped Xubuntu, but they keep happening
[06:33] <dr_willis_> Desh,  it can report stuff it dont have configrued or drivers for or other things.
[06:33] <Desh> dr_willis_: well i don;t have a 2nd screen plugged in, I have the option to, as I have the port, but nothing is plugged in, would that interfere with fglrx, telling it I hve 2 monitors?
[06:34] <garryF> Search for splash screen or just splash in package manager, and get the one you want.
[06:34] <Warbo> fowlduck: There is a Wiki article on the Breezy one, but it changed with Dapper and the only link is to a sort of discussion page
[06:34] <fowlduck> Warbo, mmkay thx
[06:34] <dr_willis_> Desh,  i know nothing of how ati handles 2 displays.. plus some laptops do the 2 outputs 'difrently' then a desktop can.

[06:35] <Desh> :'(
[06:35] <dr_willis_> Desh,  my x200m laptop - does work with the fglrx  - whch suprised me.
[06:35] <dr_willis_> but in the future - i wont get any more laptops with ati.
[06:35] <Desh> dr_willis_: the new driver?
[06:35] <DonL> Another question: Since I upgraded to Dapper, every time I reboot, the sound on tv time starts on boot up. I have to wait till it's totally booted, go into tvtime, and then turn it off
[06:36] <torpedo|dog> Anybody: is there a way that I can remove my old linux kernel versions? Is it safe to remove them through APT or is there a specific thing I have to do?
[06:36] <dr_willis_> no idea how new is new. :) i dont woory about it being the newest
[06:36] <yum> Hello, I want to have a different grub splash screen. I entered this line in the menue.lst: "splashimage=(hd0,0) /boot/grub/screens/frag.xpm.gz ". But it doesn't work. This are my other entries in the menue.lst: "root		(hd0,4), kernel		/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-386 root=/dev/hde9 ro quiet splash". The boot partition is on: "/dev/hde5               188168    32146    145983  19% /boot"
[06:36] <sproingie> torpedo|dog: you can use apt.  if you try to remove your current one, it screams at you and asks if you really want to
[06:36] <garryF> I know I've seen the keyword for info on two monitors on same machine, but I can't remember it.
[06:36] <torpedo|dog> sproingie: okay, thanks.
[06:36] <Desh> Why would I get this when I run glxgears: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[06:37] <Desh> I don't use XFree. :(
[06:38] <torpedo|dog> Netsplit?
[06:38] <torpedo|dog> No, just a lot of quits.
[06:39] <garryF> Perhaps dri is not working. I think the command to find out is glxinfo | grep dri
[06:39] <Warbo> Desh: Probably that is just the name of the X extension. Many drivers don't support DRI (it's maily Free ones that do support it)
[06:40] <Desh> Is there a way to do software DRI?
[06:40] <festr> too bad there isnt a fast way to install everything for rubyonrails in one shot
[06:40] <festr> ruby, gems, rails, light
[06:40] <sproingie> ati supports dri too
[06:40] <Warbo> Desh: That would kind of defeat the point :)
[06:40] <garryF> well, the free nv driver didn't support dri. I think software dri would be slow.
[06:40] <Desh> Warbo: I am confudes :(
[06:40] <Desh> *confused
[06:41] <garryF> nv is a software driver, it uses no hardware or gpu bells and whistles.
[06:41] <Warbo> DRI=Direct Rendering Infrastructure (I think). Software is not directly talking to the HW
[06:41] <Desh> That driver sued to not give me that error.
[06:41] <Desh> *used
[06:41] <Warbo> Desh: You on Nvidia?
[06:41] <Kirk> Hey
[06:41] <Desh> ATI.
[06:41] <Kirk> Question
[06:41] <Desh> The open source driver never game me that error.
[06:42] <Kirk> How do I change the root password in MySQL 4.0.x, from nothing to "thisismypass" or something?
[06:42] <Kirk> The manual context didn't work for me before.
[06:42] <Warbo> Desh: Free ATI drivers support DRI (on Radeon 9200 and below). I think FGLRX supports it too, but I'm not sure
[06:42] <sproingie> fglrx uses dri, nvidia does not
[06:42] <Desh> Warbo: :( I have a mobility 9700
[06:42] <garryF> !hardware
[06:42] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:43] <richard_> hey all, brand new ubuntu user... I'm wrestling with getting the wireless working on my dell d820..  DD 6.06 with all updates loads the driver just fine but the interface doesn't connect to the AP when I ifup eth1...
[06:44] <piratepenguin> exit
[06:44] <garryF> The mobiity is supported. The wiki tells some little small work arounds you might need to do.
[06:44] <Vit7oO> Hi everybody, i need help converting a fat32 partition to ext3.. anyone pls, i know this won't take long, thanx
[06:44] <Desh> richard: try: sudo dhclient eth1
[06:45] <synd2> Hi, I have a compaq laptop with Ubuntu and it has a battery monitor that has shown to work, but it intermittently "disappears"
[06:45] <synd2> Is there any way to remedy this?
[06:46] <bur[n] er> anyone know if there's a .deb for vmware server in the works?
[06:46] <Warbo> Vit7oO: I would shrink the partition as much as possible, make a small ext3 one and copy acroos as much as will fit, then keep shrinking FAT32, growing ext3, copying across until there is nothing left on the FAT32
[06:47] <garryF> yeah, then ye can delete the fat, and expand the ext3
[06:47] <lvpython> at ubuntu which package is a manualpage about Cplusplus Fuctions?
[06:47] <noonex> how do you use apt-get to install a specific version of a package?
[06:47] <richard_> Desh: http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=17704
[06:47] <richard_> noonex: :version
[06:48] <richard_> noonex: apt-get install foo:version
[06:48] <Warbo> Vit7oO: I would shrink the partition as much as possible, make a small ext3 one and copy acroos as much as will fit, then keep shrinking FAT32, growing ext3, copying across until there is nothing left on the FAT32 (you quit, so I repeated myself)
[06:48] <Kirk> How do I change the root password in MySQL 4.0.x, from nothing to "thisismypass" or something?
[06:48] <lvpython> o
[06:49] <synd2> Hi, I have a compaq laptop with Ubuntu and it has a battery monitor that has shown to work, but it intermittently "disappears". Any fixes to keep it from disappearing?
[06:49] <Vit7oO> warbo, i don't want to keep anything that i might have on the fat32 partition
[06:49] <Vit7oO> i just want to delete it and convert it to ext3
[06:49] <richard_> Vit7oO: gparted
[06:49] <garryF> Delete the partitition and create a new ext3
[06:49] <bur[n] er> Vit7oO: system -> admin -> gnome partition editor
[06:50] <Warbo> Vit7oO: No need to convert it then, just format to ext3
[06:50] <Vit7oO> thanks u all
[06:50] <Warbo> Vit7oO: Is this to install Ubuntu on?
[06:50] <Vit7oO> no
[06:50] <richard_> Desh: As you can see it doesn't "see" the AP...  The strange thing is the machine has a little light that shows when the wireless is "working"
[06:51] <Warbo> Vit7oO: OK, otherwise I was going to mention SWAP
[06:51] <synd2> Does GParted let me take GBs off of my NTFS partition and add them to my ext3 partition?
[06:51] <richard_> When i boot into windows the light comes on (steady) when I "enable" the card
[06:51] <Vit7oO> i have my disk splited in half, one half for win, one for lin, well, i dont want win anymore
[06:51] <Warbo> Vit7oO: Good for you :)
[06:51] <bur[n] er> synd2: yes as long as you have ntfsprogs I think
[06:51] <richard_> with ubuntu the light flashes once a second or so
[06:52] <Warbo> synd2: I think GParted gets confused trying to extend ext3 backwards
[06:52] <noonex> richard_:  thank you!
[06:52] <kakalto> If I were to copy all of a ubuntu install to another hard drive and stick it into another computer, how would ubuntu handle it?
[06:52] <synd2> Warbo: :/
[06:52] <sproingie> kakalto: probably just fine
[06:52] <bur[n] er> kakalto: pretty well
[06:52] <kakalto> sweet.
[06:52] <richard_> noonex: No problem
[06:52] <bur[n] er> kakalto: maybe just a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[06:52] <Warbo> kakalto: Probably OK (my system is the result of that), just make sure fstab is OK
[06:52] <holycow> hey can anyone unban my other hostmask?
[06:52] <kakalto> yeah
[06:53] <richard_> noonex: I learned that from the man page ;-)
[06:53] <kakalto> Warbo: figured, that's one of the more obvious things =)
[06:53] <kakalto> bur[n] er: right, I'll keep that in mind
[06:53] <Warbo> synd2: That is only in my experience though
[06:53] <Desh> What does this mean in my Xorg.0.log file:
[06:53] <Desh> II) Loading sub module "radeon"
[06:53] <Desh> (II) LoadModule: "radeon"
[06:53] <Desh> (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so
[06:54] <Warbo> kakalto: Oh yeah, grub-install too (I use a boot CD so I forgot)
[06:54] <Kirk> I have a question.
[06:54] <richard_> Desh: That is your video drive loading
[06:54] <Warbo> Desh: It is loading the driver
[06:54] <Kirk> In this context:
[06:54] <Kirk> SET PASSWORD FOR 'bob'@'%.loc.gov' = PASSWORD('newpass');
[06:54] <kakalto> Warbo: hmm, grub could be kinda interesting
[06:54] <Desh> Warbo, in this case: radeon?
[06:54] <Kirk> Does "PASSWORD" mean insert the old password, or do I leave that portion of the command as it is?
[06:54] <Desh> Warbo: it is supposed to load "ati" not "radeon"
[06:54] <Warbo> Desh: The radeon driver doesn't have 3D on your card (I think)
[06:54] <bur[n] er> kakalto: "sudo grub-install /dev/hda" after you've chrooted to your new environment!
[06:54] <holycow> for anyone looking for games ... here is a very cool fps: http://tremulous.net/index.php?section=shots
[06:55] <bur[n] er> holycow: thank you digg
[06:55] <kakalto> bur[n] er: well, the thing is, I'm sticking it on a completely different computer
[06:55] <Kirk> Awesome, thanks bud.
[06:55] <Kirk> :)
[06:55] <holycow> no debian package yet ... maybe will package it if i have time
[06:55] <kakalto> bur[n] er: there's no hdd in that computer at the moment
[06:55] <Warbo> Desh: ATI is a Free 2D driver, radeon is a 3D (usually) Free driver and fglrx is a 3D non-Free driver
[06:55] <holycow> bur[n] er, lol, indeedy
[06:55] <kakalto> bur[n] er: it's just, I want to save the data I have on that drive
[06:55] <holycow> bur[n] er, seems like all the sites i've been reading now get their links from digg indeed
[06:55] <Desh> Warbo: but in xorg.conf I set it to use ati not radeon, why would it load radeon?
[06:55] <kakalto> sadly I don't have a spare 13gb around =S
[06:56] <Warbo> holycow: Any idea about Doomsday packages for Ubuntu? I can't find any addons :(
[06:56] <garryF>  ATI Radeon 9700 3D requires xorg-driver-fglrx, see BinaryDriverHowto
[06:56] <Desh> Warbo: How do I check the driver being useed?
[06:56] <holycow> Warbo, no idea actually, havent had too much time to muck about
[06:56] <Warbo> Desh: No idea sorry (I've only been using an ATI for a few weeks)
[06:56] <Desh> garryF: fglrx will not work tho. :(
[06:57] <bur[n] er> kakalto: you can always use a boot cd to accesss the data, no worries
[06:57] <vigilante> Solved my sound problem with quake/doom, got alsa working, if anyone else is interested in the solution let me know
[06:57] <kakalto> bur[n] er: yeah, true
[06:57] <bur[n] er> even if the os doesn't boot from the hdd, a cd will be a nice stepping stone to fixing it
[06:57] <garryF> Desh  Hmmm.
[06:57] <kakalto> so....
[06:57] <Warbo> holycow: Doomsday is a great 3D engine for Doom and Doom 2. In Breezy there was a repository with all of the extras, but for Dapper there is just the engine, so it is just like PrBoom or something (no 3D, no particle effects, hires textures, etc.) :(
[06:57] <kakalto> cp -arv.... what's the command to stay in this partition when copying?
[06:58] <Desh> drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns -1023
[06:58] <Desh> drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card43
[06:58] <Desh> drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
[06:58] <Desh> drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
[06:58] <Warbo> kakalto: -x I think?
[06:58] <kakalto> uhm
[06:58] <holycow> Warbo, oh i see, neato
[06:58] <kakalto> Warbo: I'll man it
[06:58] <Desh> It says that from card like 0 or 1 to like 200 or something
[06:58] <richard_> uhg... i'm beat, g'night and good luck all
[06:58] <holycow> Warbo, thx for the heads up bro
[06:58] <bur[n] er> holycow: you try tremulous yet?
[06:58] <johnsandman> I need two files (pictures) to compare is there a tool or which command must I use
[06:58] <Warbo> I tried Tremulous. It's entirely network based isn't it?
[06:58] <bur[n] er> i have no idea
[06:58] <holycow> bur[n] er, nope, downloading  now :) i just thought to get peeps interest in something free and decent :)
[06:59] <kakalto> yeah, -x =)
[06:59] <torpedo|dog> johnsandman: how so?
[06:59] <garryF> diff
[06:59] <holycow> according to reviews anyway, hehe
[06:59] <bur[n] er> i'm downloading too, but what if it sucks? ;)
[06:59] <torpedo|dog> johnsandman: that is to say, what do you want to compare?
[06:59] <johnsandman> these pictures are split
[06:59] <Vit7oO> i just formated my win partition (hda1) which is my boot partition to ext3, did i loose grub by formating?
[06:59] <garryF> Use it as a vacuum cleaner.
[06:59] <Warbo> holycow: I was just wandering around a map on my own. Maybe I'll try it now that my Internet works again :)
[07:00] <garryF> Hmmm, depends on if the grub is in the mbr or in the partition.
[07:00] <johnsandman> two parts of one pic howto make one pic of it?
[07:00] <torpedo|dog> johnsandman: sorry, I'm not getting what you mean.
[07:00] <q_a_z_steve> !gphone
[07:00] <ubotu> I know nothing about gphone - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[07:00] <sysrpl> hello
[07:00] <Warbo> hi
[07:00] <sysrpl> what is a way to see files modified in the last 4 hours?
[07:01] <sysrpl> say in my home dir downward?
[07:01] <Warbo> sysrpl: Hmm, maybe some script that uses ls -l and grep?
[07:01] <kakalto> pentium3 is i686, right? even pentium2 is i686, right?
[07:02] <mheath> Right.
[07:02] <LordBrain> are there any dialup modems that are known to be autodetected and work well?
[07:02] <Warbo> I think Pentium 3 is 686, I think PII is 586?
[07:02] <sysrpl> i am using find ~/ -type d -exec dir -l {} \;|grep 2006-07-13 but it's slow as hell
[07:02] <kakalto> hmm
[07:02] <Warbo> LordBrain: ANY which is external
[07:02] <mheath> Pentium 1 is 586.
[07:02] <Warbo> LordBrain: (serial, not USB)
[07:02] <mheath> Pentium III is 686. Anything newer than Pentium 1 is 686.\
[07:02] <kakalto> I was going to say, would I notice speed increases on a pentium2 if I switched to the -686 kernel?
[07:02] <Desh> What is 386?
[07:02] <mheath> kakalto, no.
[07:02] <johnsandman> pentium I
[07:02] <Warbo> Desh: 386 is an ancient model of PC processor
[07:03] <rixth> Why would xorg ignore my config file? I want to set my resolution to 1920x1200 but it's not doing it.
[07:03] <LordBrain> Warbo: serial modems are auto-detected?
[07:03] <kakalto> johnsandman: that's not 386
[07:03] <rixth> I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:03] <Desh> :(!! Why does DRI not work!! WAH!
[07:03] <kakalto> there were, like, 286, 386, 486, pentium, etc?
[07:03] <Warbo> LordBrain: Dialup apps (like gnome-ppp) are auto-setup to use them, so just enter your details and click connect
[07:03] <mheath> Desh, 386 was a processor series than Intel made during the 1980's. All modern processors are based off the features and machine language of that processor.
[07:03] <johnsandman> mostly it is isn't it
[07:03] <mheath> *all modern intel and amd processors
[07:03] <Warbo> Desh: ATI and Radeon drivers WILL NOT give DRI on your card. Fglrx may
[07:03] <Desh> (WW) RADEON(0): Failed to detect secondary monitor, MergedFB/Clone mode disabled
[07:04] <Desh> That means it is trying to get  a 2nd monitor! how do I stop that?
[07:04] <garryF> If you don't have a second monitor, I would not worry about it.
[07:05] <Desh> :( I'm scared that's screwing with fglrx.
[07:05] <sysrpl> hrm ... what command dumps the contents of a file?
[07:05] <Desh> Wel let's try it out, be back in a while..
[07:05] <garryF> more
[07:05] <mheath> sysrpl, cat
[07:05] <LordBrain> warbo... suppose i give a live-cd to my friend who has a serial modem hooked up... once booted they can just run gnome-ppp and fill it in and wammo they are online?
[07:05] <Kirk> LD
[07:05] <Kirk> ":D
[07:05] <Kirk> THIS OWNS!
[07:05] <garryF> or even les, and cat
[07:05] <Kirk> I actually got VHCS2 installed!
[07:05] <Kirk> :D
[07:05] <garryF> less
[07:05] <Kirk> Ubuntu owns!
[07:05] <Kirk> :)
[07:05] <sysrpl> ty
[07:05] <Kirk> Thanks to everyone who helped me earlier today!
[07:05] <Kirk> :)
[07:06] <Kirk> Free hosting for everyone who helped me, and anyone else who wants it.  :P  www.alphahertz.com.  ;)
[07:06] <Kirk> lolz
[07:06] <Kirk> This IRC owns
[07:06] <rixth> Part of xorg.conf is here. http://pastie.caboo.se/4420 please tell my whyt X is only running at 1280x1024.
[07:06] <Kirk> You can trust i'll be back!
[07:06] <Kirk> :)
[07:06] <mheath> sysrpl, that simply prints the contents of the file. If you want it in a nice format for you to read, try 'less'
[07:06] <rredd4> i use the 686 kernel, how do I make synaptic not want to download the latest 386 kernel.  (when I download something, it says there are 386 kernel upgrades that I don't want)
[07:06] <Warbo> LordBrain: I am not sure what dialup app is installed by default, but I would guess so. Serial devices are not autodetected, but their device name (/dev/ttys0) is usually the default anyway (so they don't need to be autodetected)
[07:06] <Kirk> Bye for now!
[07:06] <rixth> !tell Kirk about aolbonics
[07:06] <q_a_z_steve> rixth, you missed him
[07:07] <Warbo> rredd4: Look for a "linux-386" or "linux-image-386" package and get rid of it
[07:07] <mheath> rixth, most of the time that resolutions aren't working despite being specified in the config file, it is because your video card doesn't suppor that resolution at that depth.
[07:07] <rredd4> Marbo, ok
[07:07] <Warbo> It's a W!!!!
[07:07] <rixth> mheath, how can I find out what is supported?
[07:08] <mheath> rixth, check your video card documentation. If it does indeed support that resolution, then try adjusting the depth in the config file. Lower it.
[07:08] <garryF> !tell rixth about hardware
[07:08] <thegattaca> How does one disable tap-to-click on an Alps touch pad device in dapper drake?
[07:08] <rredd4> Marbo, you mean the one that is on my computer now?  I have 386 and 686 kernel, but only use the 386.
[07:08] <Warbo> Are TabletPC drivers any good in Xorg?
[07:08] <SurfnKid> does anyone have any idea where to find the i8k.o file for sensors on Dell Inspiron/Latitude laptops
[07:08] <Greylox> Does anybody know how to make the fonts larger in here?
[07:09] <rredd4> Marbo, i use the 686
[07:09] <Warbo> rredd4: There are met-packages (packages which don't provide anything, they just depend on other ones) which always depend on the latest 386 kernel, so uninstall them
[07:09] <Warbo> meta-packages
[07:09] <wims> Greylox,  what do you mean about 'in here' ?
[07:10] <rredd4> ok
[07:10] <Warbo> Greylox: Preferences?
[07:10] <rredd4> ty
[07:10] <ralsheb> if my system detects the cdrom drive fine at post but ubuntu server install cant  mount it what should i fix?
 you can config it preference
[07:10] <KurtKraut> With that program I can create a font (= *.ttf in Windows) to Linux ?
[07:10] <garryF> Settings/preferences if you are using xchat
[07:10] <Warbo> And GAIM
[07:10] <Warbo> sorry, I thought you said System
[07:10] <Greylox> wims I mean in this chat room ok on my computer my tired eyes wold like a larger font
[07:11] <Warbo> Greylox: What IRC program are you using?
[07:11] <wims> Greylox,  it depends on your irc client
[07:11] <Greylox> Xchat
[07:11] <Warbo> Greylox: See the message above

[07:12] <rixth> Now I am stuck at freakin 1024x768 with 8 bit colour. I know my card can do 1920x1200. Why won't it output it?
[07:12] <wims> driver issue maybe ?
[07:12] <holycow> !resolution
[07:12] <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
[07:13] <holycow> rixth, you need the proper vertical and horizontal refresh rates for your monitor model, that needs to be input in your /etc/x11/xorg.conf file
[07:14] <CarlFK> I am having a sound problem: 'everyting' echos 16 times - something simple like play /usr/share/hwdb-client/sound.wav which should take about 2 seconds takes Time: 00:01.64
[07:15] <Warbo> CarlFK: Do you have your Mic next to your speaker? :)
[07:15] <CarlFK> lol
[07:15] <rixth> holycow, http://pastie.caboo.se/4421 still doesn't work. Nor does it at 16 bit.
[07:16] <CarlFK> good Q, but no mic
[07:16] <garryF> Or underneath the cat and youa re petting the cat?
[07:17] <J-_> http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-ntfs/   check that out
[07:18] <J-_> think it's stable enough to run on ubuntu?
[07:18] <Warbo> J-_: Run, probably. Be included? I don't hink so
[07:18] <rixth> wHERE DO i PUT "MODELINES"
[07:18] <rixth> Er, caps.
[07:19] <Greylox> I am using the Gnome desktop and when I minimize a window it just vanishes but the program keeps running ie the XMMS music player was minimized, the music is still playing but I cannot recall the GUI
[07:19] <sharms> rixth: in the xorg.conf screen section
[07:20] <Warbo> Greylox: Try alt-tab
[07:21] <CarlFK> Greylox: did your taskbar (thing at the bottom) go away?
[07:21] <Warbo> Greylox: XMMS uses a skin (rather than a normal GTK widget set) so maybe that is screwing it up
[07:21] <synth7> what are the minimum ubuntu specs?
[07:21] <XrekcaH> ***Hey, How Do i Use ".sh.bin" Files i cant seem to extract it any ideas???***
[07:21] <synth7> aka what will it run on?
[07:21] <rixth> I'll ask my question formally.
[07:21] <kakalto>  /proc doesn't change on a per-distrobution basis, does it?
[07:21] <tach00_> can someone PLEASE help me, i cant burn cd's, tried it on 2 versions of linux, it just does nothing
[07:21] <CarlFK> synth7: P1-48mb - but you wont like it
[07:21] <sysrpl> what is a regular expression for searching for lines that have either the words sad or happy in them?
[07:21] <rixth> How do I get xorg to output 1920 x 1200 at 24 bit depth? I have an fx5200 card.
[07:22] <CarlFK> synth7: not p1 - 386, 48mb
[07:22] <Warbo> XrekcaH: "sh filename.sh" or "./filename.bin"
[07:22] <rixth> sysdoc, /(sad|happy)/
[07:22] <sharms> kakalto: /proc is kernel dependent, not distribution
[07:22] <Greylox> CarlFK> task bar is still here
[07:22] <kakalto> sharms: is it generated on boot or?
[07:22] <sharms> !tell rixth about x11
[07:22] <sharms> kakalto: generated while system is running, not static
[07:23] <rixth> sharms, I've looked at iot
[07:23] <kakalto> sharms: cool thanks.
[07:23] <J-_> Warbo: when will ntfs support for external hard drives be included? will fuse be stable soon, any headway yet?
[07:23] <sysrpl> grep -e[sad|happy] tix: that's not working :(
[07:23] <sysrpl> rixth: that doesnt work :(
[07:23] <sharms> rixth: no you didn't or you wouldn't be asking.
[07:23] <geeksauce> there has GOT to be a decent bittorrent client out there for linux.  bittornado sucks IMO, and i can't relly find one on par with utorrent for windows.  anyone know of something that can match or beat utorrent?
[07:24] <Warbo> J-_: FUSE is stable. It is in the kernel
[07:24] <sharms> rixth: and if you are telling me that  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto does not hold your hand through the entire process, and describes everything, then nobody here can help you.
[07:24] <Warbo> J-_: FUSE DRIVERS are all individual
[07:24] <rixth> sharms, I think I am an anomoly (sp?)
[07:24] <J-_> ahh, is ther support for any ubuntu drivers for ext. drives coming soon then?
[07:24] <sharms> rixth: maybe try to ask a more specific question, after following the guide what happened?
[07:25] <XrekcaH> Warbo, Umm the fille is "Filename.sh.bin" and its not working
[07:25] <rixth> sharms, my monitor is now stretching 1024x768 at 24 depth
[07:25] <tach00_> can someone PLEASE help me, i cant burn cd's, tried it on 2 versions of linux, and with 2 cd burners, it just does nothing.
[07:25] <J-_> i jsut don't want to run someone on my system and have it screw up my computer OR my ext. drive
[07:25] <rredd4> Marbo when I tell synaptic to remove the 386 kernel (2.6.15-25), synaptic wants to install "linux-image 2.6.15-26-386" and "upgrade linux-image-386"  I want to remove the 386 kernel without installing any 386 kernels.  how do I stop this so that I can just remove only the 386 kernel?
[07:25] <J-_> paid a pretty penny for that baby
[07:26] <sharms> rixth: under display, it should read: modes "1920x1200"
[07:26] <Warbo> J-_: I run my entire system off an external drive. They are no different from internal (except my BIOS can't bootit)
[07:27] <J-_> hmm, that's cool. thanks for the info... what driver do you use?
[07:27] <Sir_Fawnpug> MAn glibc is a big compile.
[07:27] <Warbo> J-_: I use reiserFS and ext3
[07:27] <garryF> !k3b
[07:27] <ubotu> k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/K3BHowto
[07:27] <rixth> sharms, it does
[07:27] <J-_> k cool, thanks, i'll look into that. does it support ntfs?
[07:27] <Sir_Fawnpug> AHH! KDE will burn my house down!
[07:27] <rixth> sharms, I did have to change the refresh frequencies, though.
[07:28] <sharms> rixth: I would visit ubuntu forums, write a forum post, include your /var/log/xorg output in the post, and /msg the link to me
[07:28] <Warbo> J-_: NTFS is a filesystem. ReiserFS and Ext3 are different filesystems :)
[07:28] <J-_> d'oh
[07:28] <J-_> thanks lol
[07:28] <Vit7oO> hi again, i formated my fat32 partition to ext3, no i cant mount it, i get: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1 missing codepage or other error.
[07:29] <holycow> !fstab
[07:29] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions that are mounted on the system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !partitions
[07:29] <sharms> Vit7oO: use the -t ext3 option
[07:29] <Warbo> Vit7oO: Run "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" and change the type from vfat to ext3
[07:29] <holycow> make sure you refer to ext3 properly in your fstab
[07:29] <synd2> How do I get Ubuntu + network-manager to work with WPA?
[07:29] <tach00_> I know everyone gets tired of hearing this one, but can someone PLEASE help me, i cant burn cd's, tried it on 2 versions of linux, and with 2 cd burners, it gets to the point where its supposed to be burning and then just does nothing.
[07:29] <CarlFK> does ubuntuforums use the same user/pw as launchpad or wiki?
[07:29] <universee> oh,how can i join the mail-lists of linux kernel developing,who can help me ?ttks
[07:30] <Warbo> tach00_: Have you tried cdrecord from the console? (Are there 2.6 issues around that?)
[07:30] <AssCandy> can somone give me a hand regarding networking
[07:30] <CarlFK> tach00_: use cdrecord, use the test option that won't really burn a CD
[07:31] <tach00_> warbo: yes and i have read all the forums, it doesnt address my problem, i think there is something wrong with my system or maybe i havent installed something right
[07:31] <synd2> How do I get Ubuntu + network-manager to work with WPA?
[07:31] <CarlFK> AssCandy: maybe, but please change your nick
[07:31] <AssCandy> sure
[07:31] <holycow> !wpa
[07:31] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[07:31] <Warbo> tach00_: Does the drive appear when you boot?
[07:31] <Warbo> (in the POST)
[07:31] <sysrpl> if i wanted to see what files were modified in 2005 or 2004 where would be the regular expression for 'dir /usr -l -R|grep -e'(what goes here>"?
[07:31] <CarlFK> thanks
[07:32] <CarlFK> sysrpl: if that is what you want, look at the find command
[07:32] <rixth> sharms, bash: /var/log/xorg: No such file or directory
[07:32] <tach00_> warbo: yes, its there and accessable, just when i try to burn, it says "starting dao" and just sits on 0% forever
[07:32] <Kirk_> I need help here. :|
[07:32] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: and now ask a real question :)
[07:32] <raxip> sup?
[07:32] <Kirk_> One second
[07:32] <Kirk_> Let me try one more thing
[07:33] <Kirk_> I'm having control panel apache messups. :|
[07:33] <MachineHeD> anyways i just installed ubuntu on my computer with dual boot so my fiancee can use windows and i cant get the internet to work
[07:33] <tach00_> warbo: its done it with balg and ubuntu, has to be something in a setting that i dont know about, at first i thought it was a bug, but bugs arent on more than one machine
[07:33] <sharms> rixth: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:33] <rixth> alright
[07:34] <MachineHeD> could it be my network drivers
[07:34] <Warbo> tach00_: Sorry, the only help I could offer is anecdotal, but your problem isn't like any I've encountered
[07:34] <Kirk_> !pastebin
[07:34] <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)
[07:34] <rixth> sharms, relevant: " No valid modes for "1920x1200"; removing."
[07:34] <tach00_> warbo: i know, thats why i came to you guys, because i know its something i know nothing about
[07:34] <Kirk_> I needed the url
[07:34] <Kirk_> lol
[07:34] <sharms> tach00_: what program are you using to burn
[07:35] <raxip> I'll soon find out
[07:35] <rixth> So my card doesn't support that resolution /at all/?
[07:35] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: it could be. Apps, Accessories, Terminal, ifconfig - do you get a line that says something like inet addr:192.168.1.7 ?
[07:35] <MachineHeD> nope
[07:35] <J-_> anyone try NTFS GNOME??
[07:35] <tach00_> sharms: now i am using k3b, but i have tried all of them that my system has including trying it from terminal
[07:35] <MachineHeD> i havent receved any errors or nothing
[07:36] <sharms> rixth: what did 855resolution tell you
[07:36] <sharms> tach00_: are you in the proper group?
[07:36] <ic56> MachineHeD: what kind of internet connectivity? wireless? dialup modem? high-speed through a wired ethernet card?
[07:36] <rixth> sharms, I use an nvidia chipset, so it wouldn't run/.
[07:36] <lakbu> can i install an ubuntu over the network?
[07:36] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: dmesg | less - look around for something interesting
[07:36] <Desh> Can anyone help with my fglrx issue: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17886
[07:36] <Warbo> lakbu: Debootstrap would help you there
[07:36] <rixth> sharms, NVIDIA chipset detected.  915resolution only works with Intel 800/900 series graphic chipsets.
[07:37] <tach00_> sharms: i would assume so, there is only 2 users on my machine, me and root, i thought i was in the only group available? please elaborate
[07:37] <lakbu> Warbo: thanks. can you give me the url?
[07:37] <CarlFK> lakbu: "yes", but it seems to be broken right now https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[07:37] <mzuverink> what is the dictionary that I need to install for spell checking in gedit?
[07:37] <lakbu> CarlFK, any alternative?
[07:38] <sharms> tach00_: #1: there is no root
[07:38] <MachineHeD> ?
[07:38] <mzuverink> A us english dictionary
[07:38] <garryF> Aww shoot Desh I just noticed that the hardware wiki specifies only ubuntu breezy version as supporting mobility 9700
[07:38] <Warbo> lakbu: Debootstrap is in Ubuntu (and Debian). You use it to install a basic system into a folder. If you mount the partition you want to use as root over NFS or something then you could use debootstrap on it from another machine (maybe from a LiveCD)
[07:38] <Vit7oO> now i can mount the ext3 partition it but only as root, how do i change this?
[07:38] <sharms> tach00_: #2: do these programs give any log files or error messages?
[07:38] <sharms> tach00_: does nautilus burn correctly?
[07:38] <rixth> sharms, http://pastie.caboo.se/4423 output from dccprobe
[07:39] <CarlFK> lakbu: I was able to get soemthing to work - like just ubuntu-server, then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:39] <lakbu> Warbo, thanks. ill google it.
[07:39] <tach00_> sharms: thats correct for ubuntu but a am having this problem with more than one machine, and i know its not the burner because i removed it from a machine that was working it perfectly
[07:39] <Warbo> Vit7oO: It will be mounted at boot if it is in fstab (and doesn't have a "noauto" option), so that should be fine
[07:39] <Tmob> anyone know where i can find libtoolize.. which package/
[07:39] <Tmob> ?
[07:39] <Desh> garryF: O_O Then what do I use for 3d for Dapper?
[07:39] <CarlFK> Tmob: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[07:39] <tach00_> sharms: no, they do nothing past where i tell it to burn
[07:39] <Vit7oO> thanks a lot warbo
[07:39] <Tmob> ah
[07:39] <garryF> I used an nvidia 6800 myself.
[07:39] <Warbo> Vit7oO: Other than that you may want to manage it with gnome-volume-manager, but I STILL haven't got my head around that
[07:40] <sharms> rixth: it looks to me like your video card is not capable of the resolution, are you running the nvidia drivers (like the ones you have to specifically install) or stock?
[07:40] <sharms> tach00_: try again, and then check your dmesg logs, and your /var/log/syslog
[07:40] <rixth> sharms, nvidia. I don't see 1280x1024 listed there either, though I had used that for over a year.
[07:40] <rendo> How do I change the port when running gdb?  Like command wise not overall wise
[07:41] <sharms> rixth: pastebin your whole xorg.conf
[07:41] <rixth> sharms, ok, gonna restart X first.
[07:41] <mzuverink> No one knows what dictionary package is necessary for gedit?
[07:41] <Kirk_> Hey.
[07:41] <sharms> mzuverink: I think ispell
[07:41] <Kirk_> So I installed VHCS2, www.vhcs.net, and I now get an error when I reboot apache.
[07:41] <Kirk_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17887
[07:41] <Kirk_> Is this anything critical?
[07:41] <mzuverink> sharms, thanks, I will try that.
[07:42] <Warbo> aspell I think, but does Gedit use dictionaries?
[07:42] <XrekcaH> ****Hey, How Do i Use A File Like "Filename.sh.bin"???****
[07:42] <rendo> How do I change the port when running gdb?  Like command wise not overall wise
[07:42] <Warbo> XrekcaH: "./filename.sh.bin" or "sudo ./filename.sh.bin"
[07:42] <Kirk_> As I said...
[07:42] <Kirk_> [00:41]  Kirk: So I installed VHCS2, www.vhcs.net, and I now get an error when I reboot apache.
[07:42] <Kirk_> [00:41]  Kirk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17887
[07:42] <Kirk_> [00:41]  Kirk: Is this anything critical?
[07:42] <sharms> Kirk_: why are you setting up a virtual host but not setting up a virtual host?
[07:43] <Warbo> XrekcaH: Or maybe "chmod u+x filename.sh.bin" first
[07:43] <Kirk_> I don't know... what should I set it to and where should I change it?
[07:43] <sharms> Kirk_: you are telling it to expect virtual hosts on an IP, but then not giving it any
[07:43] <XrekcaH> ok ill try
[07:43] <XrekcaH> but nothing is working
[07:43] <rixth> sharms, xorg.conf http://pastie.caboo.se/4424 log http://pastie.caboo.se/4425
[07:43] <mzuverink> Warbo, I am not sure, I am trying to get the spell checker in gedit to work
[07:43] <rixth> I tried using the nv driver
[07:43] <wheelswitch> i have a usb hdd, is it possible to check the temp with hddtemp?  how can i check what it is in /dev/
[07:43] <Kirk_> sharms: OK... well, where do I change that, and do I change it to "s1.alphahertz.com" or to "cust-71-13-112-47.atcyber.net"?
[07:43] <Warbo> mzuverink: I think that aspell is the main spellchecker GNOME/Ubuntu use, but I don't know if Gedit uses any
[07:44] <mzuverink> Warbo, ispell is not it
[07:44] <sharms> rixth: change the nv to nvidia under the driver section
[07:44] <Warbo> Is nvidia-glx a meta-package?
[07:44] <rixth> sharms, with the nv driver, I have 1280x1024 right now. Shall i restart X with nvidia?
[07:44] <J-_> I might just wait to try the ntfs drivers... buy another external hard drive and case, put the files on that after the drive is formatted to either ext3 or fat 32, and just put the 300gb drive i have right now into my linux system :D
[07:45] <wheelswitch> what is my usb hdd labled as in /dev ?
[07:45] <sharms> mzuverink: its aspell I believe
[07:45] <MachineHeD> how do i install nforce drivers
[07:45] <sharms> rixth: just give it a try then post the log and conf again
[07:45] <mzuverink> The spell checker is aspell for gedit, you need a dictionary for it to work
[07:45] <Kirk_> Sharms.. please answer my question.  :|  I'm irritated with this.
[07:46] <Warbo> Where would I file a bug about nvidia-glx's dependencies? (The package is not in LaunchPad)
[07:46] <mzuverink> sharms, aspell need a dict
[07:46] <Kirk_> It's times like this I wonder why I chose Unix.
[07:46] <Kirk_> :|
[07:46] <mzuverink> Warbo, aspell is it, it needs a dict
[07:46] <Warbo> mzuverink: Usually the "language-support" packages sort that out
[07:46] <wheelswitch> how do i find what my usb hdd is labled as in /dev/
[07:46] <CarlFK> can someone do play /usr/share/hwdb-client/sound.wav and tell me what the resulting "Time" is that gets printed at the end?  (should be about 2 seconds)
[07:46] <Warbo> wheelswitch: "fdisk -l" maybe
[07:47] <wheelswitch> Warbo:  cheers
[07:47] <mzuverink> Warbo, aspell installs with ubuntu-desktop, you just need to pick a dict
[07:47] <sharms> Kirk_: take a look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HelpOnConfiguration/ApacheVoodoo?highlight=%28virtualhost%29   near the bottom
[07:47] <sharms> mzuverink: I use aspell-en
[07:47] <Kirk_> sharms: OK
[07:47] <tach00_> sharms: what exactly am i looking for, i did find something that might be of interest tho
[07:47] <Warbo> J-_: Write an email to william.gates@microsoft.com and put the subject as "Let us use your drivers"
[07:47] <tach00_> !pastebin
[07:47] <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)
[07:48] <J-_> lmfao
[07:48] <Warbo> J-_: Well, the "captive" driver uses the Windows NTFS driver I think
[07:49] <tach00_> sharms: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17888
[07:49] <sharms> tach00_: anything that says anything about your cd device
[07:49] <xxyyzz> How do I find out if my computer has wireless or not? I'm not sure if Ubuntu is supposed to detect wireless 'cause I'm not sure if I have it or not, heh
[07:49] <MachineHeD> i need help connecting to the internet if somone could help please let me know ill give you any information that you need to help diagnose my problem
[07:49] <J-_> i might just make my p4 a barebone system with xp, write everything that's on my ext. drive on it.. convert it to fat32 and put teh stuff back on it
[07:49] <xxyyzz> It's a compaq presario v2000 ... I dunno if it comes with a wireless card =/
[07:49] <sharms> tach00_: it appears that the media you are using is bad
[07:50] <sharms> !tell xxyyzz about wireless
[07:50] <Warbo> xxyyzz: "lspci"?
[07:50] <J-_> then i'll be saying goodbye to windows forever *amen*
[07:50] <tach00_> sharms: it checked out with the m5sum
[07:50] <rixth> sharms, http://pastie.caboo.se/4426 now the resolution is 1024x768
[07:50] <Warbo> (that won't get PCMCIA, USB or other ones though)
[07:50] <rendo> Why can't anyone tell me how to change the port GDB uses from 4000 to something else when I try and run it without changing any files,  I just want to know HOW to set the port while I debug.
[07:50] <sharms> MachineHeD: state your question
[07:50] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: wireless can be a pci, usb or pccard device - I would do: sudo apt-get install lshw, then lshw|less to see what all you have
[07:51] <Warbo> J-_: If you are saying goodbye to Windows, why do you want to use NTFS?
[07:51] <sharms> tach00_: you can't check blank media md5sums
[07:51] <tach00_> sharms: if that were the case it would work sometimes, however  i have tried with movies, simple text files, and so on
[07:51] <xxyyzz> I used Warbo's command, and a whole bunch of stuff came up.
[07:51] <Warbo> CarlFK: PCMCIA, not PCCard dammit! :)
[07:51] <xxyyzz> But I didn't see the word "Wireless" anywhere...
[07:51] <CarlFK> rendo: cuz noone knows
[07:51] <tach00_> sharms:OOHH, you mean the disc are bad
[07:51] <J-_> if i need to take the drive else where i know i can use it, but the nagain fat32 will do that too
[07:51] <Warbo> xxyyzz: Any "802.11" anywhere?
[07:51] <garryF> Probably because nobody knows or understands the question or needs more info.
[07:51] <sharms> tach00_: one sec
[07:51] <xxyyzz> CarlFX, I can't apt-get anything 'cause the other computer isn't connected to the internet :(
[07:51] <rixth> sharms, would I get better results with a VGA cable maybe? Rather than DVI
[07:51] <tach00_> sharms: could all of them be bad?
[07:51] <CarlFK> Warbo: I still don't know the diff between the 2 :)
[07:52] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: lshw may be on the install CD
[07:52] <sharms> rixth:   Modeline "1920x1200"  189.78  1920 2048 2256 2592  1200 1201 1204 1241 -HSync +Vsync
[07:52] <MachineHeD> well i just finished installing ubuntu and when i went through the install it said checking dhcp or whatever and it didnt find anything ... and when it completed the install i tried to connect to the internet and nothing happened
[07:52] <Tedd> How can I play m4a in Banshee?
[07:52] <sharms> rixth: try adding that in your screen section
[07:52] <xxyyzz> Warbo, not that I can see
[07:52] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: hmm, not sure if the dapper thing uses the install CD anymore
[07:52] <MachineHeD> i dont know weather its my eathernet drivers or what
[07:52] <Warbo> CarlFK: The proper name is PCMCIA (People Can't Memorise Computer Industry Acronyms :)) but it is abbrieviated to PCCard, even though it works in loads of non-PC systems
[07:52] <rixth> sharms, where in that section?
[07:52] <sharms> MachineHeD: you need to make sure you are running a dhcp server first, in your router
[07:52] <sharms> Warbo: have him read the wireless guide
[07:52] <MachineHeD> i dont have a router
[07:52] <sharms> xxyyzz: read what ubotu messaged you
[07:52] <MachineHeD> just me and the modem
[07:53] <garryF> dialup?
[07:53] <sharms> MachineHeD: is it a different machine than what was previously hooked up?
[07:53] <Warbo> xxyyzz: Yeah, read the !wireless thing that was sent to you
[07:53] <xxyyzz> CarlFX, I typed "lshw" and a whole bunch of stuff came up... am I looking for Wireless?
[07:53] <xxyyzz> sharms, Warbo, will do
[07:53] <sharms> rixth: monitor section
[07:53] <J-_> Warbo: what's the best option i should go with...? i'm not going to blow it up either.
[07:53] <MachineHeD> not what do you mean?
[07:53] <rixth> sharms, 189.78 that is wayyy higher than the pixel clock on my screen (i think)
[07:53] <sharms> rixth: add it right under vertrefresh
[07:53] <rixth> ok
[07:53] <hayden> is it possible to downgrade from mysql5x to mysql4x using apt, if so how?
[07:53] <rixth> Restaring x...
[07:53] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: post the output of ifconfg to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org  (drag the mouse over it to 'select' it - middle click to paste
[07:54] <Warbo> Bye
[07:54] <sharms> rixth: I generated it using gft, do man gft to check it out
[07:54] <MachineHeD> the ipconfig in windows?
[07:54] <Kirk_> Help please.  :(     http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17889
[07:54] <garryF> ifconfig is in linux console
[07:54] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: lshw|less
[07:54] <xxyyzz> yep
[07:54] <xxyyzz> did that
[07:55] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: ifconfig in linux
[07:55] <sharms> tach00_: run cdrdao disk-info
[07:55] <xxyyzz> Is there a way to look for a specific string in 'less', like there is in nano (ctrl+w) ?
[07:55] <Kirk_> Why can't it determine the fully qualified domain name?
[07:55] <Kirk_> I told it it's s1.alphahertz.com and it IS!
[07:55] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: /string
[07:55] <MachineHeD> that means ill hve to restart my maching write it all down on paper then restart in windows again and paste it there
[07:55] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: yuck...
[07:55] <jpmk12> hello, can anyone help me get my wireless card working?
[07:55] <xxyyzz> CarlFX: so type: lshw | less /wireless <- is that right?
[07:55] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: um...
[07:55] <garryF> you can just use ifconfig at console
[07:55] <MachineHeD> im running on my windows partition right now till i get it figured out
[07:55] <garryF> terminal
[07:56] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: no. once you see stuff, hit /string
[07:56] <sharms> Kirk_: your /etc/hosts is setup incorrectly
[07:56] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, okay, what string am I looking for in the output of lshw ?
[07:56] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: yeah...
[07:56] <garryF> Oh
[07:56] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: tacos
[07:56] <Kirk_> sharms:  Ah, it is.
[07:56] <Kirk_> :)
[07:56] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, thanks, brb
[07:56] <sharms> :)
[07:56] <MachineHeD> so what should i do?
[07:56] <rixth> sharms http://pastie.caboo.se/4427
[07:57] <tach00_> sharms: ahaa! i think you found something http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17890
[07:57] <sharms> rixth: did you try it?
[07:57] <xxyyzz> CarlFK: I get "Pattern not found (Press Return)"
[07:57] <garryF> If you can get into linux, and have a memstick, save the output of the ifconfig to the stick, then use windows to paste to the pastebin.
[07:57] <tach00_> sharms: dont know thats telling me i have outdated driver or what
[07:57] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: any chance of getting a dialup connection ?
[07:57] <rixth> sharms, it is 1024x768
[07:57] <harisund> Does anybody know how to blank the screen when you have only the tty running?
[07:57] <MachineHeD> no
[07:57] <sharms> tach00_: what version of dapper are you running
[07:58] <sharms> rixth: post the log file again
[07:58] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: then there are no tacos in your box.  (
[07:58] <tach00_> 6.10
[07:58] <ilda> any chance that a " product: TORiSAN DVD-ROM DRD-U424" would be a burner is there ?
[07:58] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, what is tacos ? Is that wireless?
[07:58] <kakalto> sharms: "version of dapper"?
[07:58] <rixth> sharms, http://pastie.caboo.se/4427 its in there
[07:58] <kakalto> sharms: you mean version of ubuntu? dapper = 6.06
[07:58] <sharms> kakalto: I meant ubuntu :)
[07:58] <kakalto> lol
[07:58] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: no - sorry - I was kidding - tacos are .. mexican food
[07:58] <glDaher> hi, I have nvidia 6600 and running latest download of ubuntu... then I installed nvidia-glx ... but when I did the autoupdate it got a new kernel and X11 wont start.. tried dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-glx and same problem
[07:58] <xxyyzz> o0o0oh...
[07:58] <xxyyzz> ROFL
[07:58] <xxyyzz> I'm very slow today!
[07:58] <xxyyzz> Don't play tricks on me :P
[07:59] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: you were looking for something - I figured you knew what you were looking for
[07:59] <xxyyzz> Should I look for the string 'wireless'?
[07:59] <tach00_> sharms: dapper 6.06
[07:59] <jpmk12> Can someone here help me with my wireless config, I tried using the System > networking option, couldnt get anything, anyone have some ideas?
[07:59] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, I have no idea what 'lshw' returns =-/
[07:59] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: I would read the whole thing - it isnt that much
[07:59] <sharms> rixth: did it run 1920x1200 in windows?
[07:59] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, okay, but after I've read it, how will I know if it has wireless?
[07:59] <kakalto> glDaher: have you installed linux-restricted-modules?
[07:59] <rixth> sharms, can't try it
[07:59] <garryF> Well, I see one thing rixth thre is no load "dri" steatement
[08:00] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: im guessing if you have it you will know
[08:00] <rixth> Could that be it?
[08:00] <xxyyzz> lol, well I have no idea if I have it =-/
[08:00] <glDaher> kakalto: I'm not sure, but I did install a lot of packages, and kubuntu as well
[08:00] <garryF> shrugs. worth a try.
[08:00] <xxyyzz> I will read all the stuff that lshw says.
[08:00] <xxyyzz> bbs
[08:00] <hayden> how can i downgrade from mysql-server5.0 to 4.1 in apt?
[08:00] <kakalto> glDaher: well what error do you get when you try to startx
[08:00] <kakalto> ?
[08:01] <rixth> It seems the majority of FX5200s support 1920x1200. I have a generic brand though
[08:01] <jpmk12> no ideas for me?
[08:01] <MachineHeD> would it work if i ran ipconfig in ubuntu took a screenshot of everything and showed someone
[08:01] <glDaher> kakalto: cannot find nvidia kernel module
[08:01] <rixth> I have another fx5200. I should try that.
[08:01] <kakalto> glDaher: well, try installed restricted modules
[08:01] <NthDegree> yo how do i specify what glibc i want to use?
[08:01] <Desh> Should fglrx work if I am using 32bit ubuntu on a 64bit machine?
[08:01] <kakalto> *installing
[08:02] <MachineHeD> ?
[08:02] <garryF> Probably would MachineHeD
[08:02] <MachineHeD> k ill bbiaf
[08:02] <holycow> there is no ipconfig on linux
[08:02] <garryF> if pastebin takes graphics
[08:02] <holycow> its ifconfing on linux btw
[08:02] <glDaher> kakalto: thanks, I'll go just do it now, but apt-get install ????
[08:02] <CarlFK> MachineHeD: this will be better: boot linux, mount a floppy, redirect a buch of stuff to it:  lspci>/media/floppy/lspci.txt lshw>...
[08:02] <CarlFK> rats
[08:02] <garryF> Yeah, I try flippies but they flip out a lot.
[08:03] <J-_> can ntfs read or write from ext3?
[08:03] <glDaher> kakalto: I mean whats the name of package I'm looking for? since I cannot use synaptic to browse
[08:03] <kakalto>  glDaher: linux-restricted-modules-386 (assuming you run the -386 kernel)
[08:03] <netmonk> hello. since the update i made last night most of the programs I open have some "invisible" areas and I can't read text or see the buttons. any ideas?
[08:03] <glDaher> kakalto: yes thats what I'm running, ok I'll go try and brb
[08:03] <kakalto> glDaher: you can use 'apt-cache search <parameters>'
[08:03] <sharms> rixth: the monitor is definately capable, but it appears the card is not capable.  It is kinda capable, but not really. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=2543dbe6096571f723711a1f5b43997a&t=54969
[08:03] <garryF> rixth Might even try  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[08:04] <glDaher> kakalto: ooh cool. thx
[08:04] <rixth> sharms, yeah I am looking at that now
[08:04] <rixth> garryF, what does -phigh do?
[08:04] <Cody> Does anyone know why I have 100% cpu usage and cpu temp of 60 C?
[08:04] <rixth> My card is fanless for the record. Though I have one with a fan too
[08:04] <garryF> dunno but its in the xorg as a way to fix up inconsistancies if you have edited the xorg.conf
[08:04] <rixth> Cody, run top
[08:04] <QRZ> Cody:  What process is hogging CPU time?  Use top.
[08:04] <Cody> ok
[08:05] <Cody> modprobe
[08:05] <xxyyzz> CarlFK, there was lots of stuff about 'bridges' and 'hosts', but nothing about 'wireless' :(
[08:06] <garryF> !wireless
[08:06] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[08:06] <Cody> modprobe is using 70% cpu, xorg about 20%, and other stuff 10%
[08:06] <GStubbs43> Is their a program like activesnc, so I can connect my Windows Mobile Smartphone (Motorola MPx220) to Ubuntu?
[08:07] <sharms> tach00_: I didn't forget about you, go ahead and post on the forums to see if someone can help, I am heading off to bed.  One thing would be to try and get k3b logs and post them with your post
[08:07] <tach00_> sharms: thanks, i will keep looking
[08:07] <Cody> I ran top, and in order, gave me: modprboe, xorg, and gnome terminal.
[08:07] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: sudo lshw|xclip  middle click in  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:08] <sharms> tach00_: if you find a solution tonight /msg me so I know for the future
[08:08] <tach00_> sharms: will do
[08:08] <QRZ> Cody:  That's not right.  Modprobe should do it's thing, and then exit.  I'd investigate why modprobe is hung.
[08:08] <vigilante> Is this bug with the Kmenu known?  Is there a fix?
[08:08] <Kirk_> God this doesn't work!
[08:08] <verix> wow, flooded channel
[08:08] <Kirk_> :(
[08:09] <verix> was expecting maybe like 50 people
[08:09] <sharms> 738 is low
[08:09] <kakalto> verix: welcome to the world of IRC.
[08:09] <Cody> QRZ, how would I look into modprobe?
[08:09] <Cody> And what is modprobe?
[08:09] <verix> kakalto: I've been using IRC for quite a while, but thank you for the welcome :p
[08:09] <xxyyzz> CarlFX, the other computer isn't connected to the internet :(
[08:09] <Kirk_> Somebody help here?
[08:09] <paied> it was over 830 earlier
[08:09] <kakalto> verix: =D
[08:09] <xxyyzz> What should I be looking for? I will tell you if it's there...
[08:10] <Kirk_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17893
[08:10] <NthDegree> modprobe is for loading kernel modules
[08:10] <verix> I just had to reinstall ubuntu on my laptop because I fucked up a bunch of things with the damn videocard drivers
[08:10] <Kirk_> What's wrong?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17893
[08:10] <verix> I got them working, but then Xgl went on strike, lol
[08:10] <Cody> ok
[08:10] <xxyyzz> -bash: xclip: command not found
[08:10] <Cody> why would it hang at 70%cpu usage?
[08:10] <QRZ> Cody:  First, kill the process so that you can at least function.  Then, analyze your system logfiles for clues.
[08:10] <garryF> xgl sometimes doesn't play nice.
[08:10] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: may have to install xclip, but if no connection, don't bother
[08:11] <verix> yeah
[08:11] <verix> it seems to crash when I even try to config gnome screensavers
[08:11] <kakalto> xgl is nice when it plays nice =)
[08:11] <Cody> ok, and how do I analyze sys. log file?
[08:11] <verix> xgl is just fun to play with when it plays nice
[08:11] <garryF> hehe
[08:11] <verix> seriously I could spin that cube all day
[08:11] <CarlFK> xxyyzz: find the part that says "-network" and then look up the product and see what it is
[08:11] <Cody> Is it safe to kill modprobe?
[08:11] <QRZ> Cody:  They are located in /var/log
[08:11] <snoops> xgl and compiz absolutely rock my world
[08:11] <verix> I also love how the thing changes shape the more workspaces you add
[08:11] <snoops> one of the main reasons I use linux at home
[08:11] <Cody> thank you
[08:11] <kakalto> verix: I have xgl as default. I /do/ spin my cube all day =P
[08:11] <verix> snoops: xgl's the reason I finally went ahead and tried to dualboot
[08:12] <verix> hehe
[08:12] <QRZ> Cody:  You can cat them and pipe them to less for easy viewing.
[08:12] <Cody> ok
[08:12] <garryF> !xgl
[08:12] <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
[08:12] <verix> oh awesome, I'll remember that
[08:12] <snoops> verix what's your favourite function?
[08:12] <Cody> Its safe for me to kill modprobe?
[08:12] <verix> the help channel anyway
[08:12] <verix> snoops: how do you mean?
[08:12] <QRZ> Cody:  yes.
[08:12] <CarlFK> im off for the night
[08:13] <Cody> thank you
[08:13] <snoops> verix of compiz..
[08:13] <verix> ah
[08:13] <verix> probably wobbly
[08:13] <snoops> my favourite has to be ctrl+alt+page down
[08:13] <verix> hmm
[08:13] <snoops> but yeah can't do without wobbly
[08:13] <verix> when I get xgl installed again I'll try that
[08:13] <xxyyzz> CarlFX, "Ethernet Interface"? "CardBus Bridge"?
[08:13] <snoops> xgl doesn't do that, compiz does
[08:14] <verix> well yeah :p
[08:14] <snoops> ctrl+alt+page down basically opens up the cube and spreads it across a horizontal pane for you to choose which desktop
[08:14] <verix> ahh nice
[08:14] <Cody> modprobe won't kill
[08:14] <synth7> wheres the best, easiest to understand ubuntu guide online?
[08:15] <synth7> installation guide
[08:15] <Madpilot> synth7, help.ubuntu.com
[08:15] <synth7> i remember there was one super detailed guide
[08:15] <synth7> made it real easy
[08:15] <rixth> sharms, it works via VGA with the fanned card. Haven't tersted DVI yet.
[08:16] <QRZ> Cody:  Try, "sudo kill -9 `ps -A | grep modprobe | cut -d ' ' -f2`" at the command prompt.
[08:16] <Madpilot> synth7, try https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[08:16] <Cody> ok
[08:16] <QRZ> Cody:  That, or just, "sudo kill -9 <pid_of_modprobe>"
[08:16] <verix> I'm going to sleep
[08:17] <Cody> neither killed it
[08:17] <QRZ> Cody:  What happens?
[08:18] <vigilante> Does anyone know how to fix the bug in kde where the kmenu can't be edited?  (I asked in #kubuntu and no response)
[08:18] <Cody> sometimes it goes down to about 30% cpu, then comes back up
[08:19] <QRZ> Cody:  What does, "ps -A | grep modprobe" give you?
[08:19] <Cody> 2963 ?        00:00:00 modprobe
[08:19] <Cody>  2968 ?        13:47:27 modprobe
[08:19] <QRZ> Cody:  Now do, "sudo kill -9 2963" and, "sudo kill -9 2968"
[08:20] <verix\a> oh wait
[08:20] <glDaher> kakalto: still there? linux-restricted-module is latest
[08:20] <verix\a> one last thing
[08:20] <verix\a> what's the apt-get package for the linux headers?
[08:20] <QRZ> Cody:  After doing that, do you still have modprobe processes running?
[08:20] <Cody> yep
[08:20] <QRZ> Cody:  If so, did the PID's change?
[08:21] <QRZ> Use, "ps -A | grep modprobe"
[08:21] <cheery> Hi
[08:21] <Cody> no they didn't change
[08:22] <QRZ> Cody: What did you get when you tried to kill the processes?  Any errors, etc?
[08:22] <Kirk_> I need Apache help.,
[08:22] <Cody> no errors
[08:22] <cheery> How can I make a completely customized keyboard layout, test it and install it as my primary keyboard layout?
[08:22] <francesjan> hello, where or how do you create a script that will run everytime you shutdown ubuntu?  i want to have an auto-backup everytime it is about to be poweroff or shutdown .
[08:23] <Cody> just entered my password, and its cpu usage dropped a bit, then went back up
[08:23] <QRZ> Cody:  And, 'top' shows modprobe as consuming CPU time consistently?
[08:23] <Kirk_> I have a question... If I make a virtual host in apache2.conf for "thissubdomain.mydomain.com" do I have to do something with the DNS to make it work?
[08:23] <Cody> yes
[08:24] <glDaher> I'll say my problem again, if I change the Driver in the Device section in xorg.conf to "nvidia" X11 doesn't start for No Screens Found error
[08:24] <The_Don> @francesjan: Try to put it in rc0.d (this is the halt runlevel) - but not sure ^^
[08:24] <sharms> !tell glDaher about nvidia
[08:24] <Kirk_> Are there any experts here or are we all here with questions and that's why they aren't being answwered? lol
[08:24] <QRZ> Cody:  Not sure what to tell you at this point...
[08:24] <Kirk_> Sharms!  you're here
[08:24] <Kirk_> Sharms:  [01:23]  Kirk: I have a question... If I make a virtual host in apache2.conf for "thissubdomain.mydomain.com" do I have to do something with the DNS to make it work?
[08:24] <Cody> darn, stupid bug
[08:25] <Kirk_> !tell Kirk about apache
[08:25] <Kirk_> lol
[08:25] <Kirk_> !tell Kirk_ about apache
[08:25] <Cody> well see ya
[08:25] <sharms> Kirk_: if it is a virtual host, on your local machine no, but on the dns server it asks, it needs to be able to find that record for thissubdomain.mydomain.com
[08:25] <glDaher> Kirk_: if others can see the domin then no, if not then yes
[08:25] <francesjan> The_Don thanks
[08:25] <Cody> QRZ, thanks for your help
[08:25] <QRZ> Cody:  Good luck with it.  Hope you figure it out.  You're welcome!
[08:25] <sharms> Kirk_: so if you dont have a real dns entry then you need to make it in your hosts file, because apache figures out what website to server by the name of the site you type in
[08:25] <Cody> could I change its priority?
[08:25] <QRZ> Cody:  Not that I really helped much...
[08:26] <sharms> now I sleep.
[08:26] <Kirk_> sharms and glDaher:  The DNS for the domain is not managed by the server in question.  And it is making a subdomain off a subdomain managed by another server, which I don't quite understand either.
[08:26] <bilss> hi
[08:27] <The_Don> quick questiion: are oldlibs (for instance in libraries) needed - cause have loads of them installed ?
[08:27] <Kirk_> This whole ordeal isn't my idea, I'm just the jackass stuck doing it.  I'm sure you've all got in that situation before... I'm the smart dude who's supposed to know what he's doing.
[08:27] <bilss> DBO: hows it going?
[08:27] <cheery> Where keyboard layouts are located in ubuntu?
[08:27] <Kirk_> I'll hand it over to the person I know might be able to help.
[08:27] <Kirk_> :S
[08:27] <sharms> Kirk_: mastering apache may take more than 1 night, even for the most talented
[08:28] <glDaher> if your DNS host points domain.com to this machine, then they probably did for all xxxx.domain.com , in which case it works, as for apache it checks the HTTP headers for the requested host-name and does the rest, it does not need any DNS changes on the apache machine
[08:28] <wolfherd> I use dapper on my IBM T43.  Anybody can use the fingerprinter of T43?
[08:28] <tiddlywinks> I have a ubuntu LAMP install from the 6.06 server CD.  How do I change the computer name without reinstalling?
[08:28] <glDaher> tiddlywinks: hostname command?
[08:29] <bilss> how to install from source with debian rules under dapper?
[08:29] <xnull-> how can I put 1024 on uslapsh?
[08:29] <bimberi> !hostname
[08:29] <ubotu> Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly
[08:30] <xnull-> !ati
[08:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:30] <xnull-> how can I put 1024 on uslapsh?
[08:31] <narfmaster> 1024?
[08:31] <xnull-> yeap
[08:31] <narfmaster> huh? 1024 what?
[08:31] <xnull-> narfmaster : rez.
[08:31] <narfmaster> 1024 resources?
[08:32] <The_Don> @wolfherd: I dont know if you know this page, maybe it helps: http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/ibm.html
[08:32] <xnull-> narfmaster: resolution 1024 x 768 ..
[08:32] <narfmaster> oh, you want the kernel option vga=some number
[08:32] <xnull-> narfmaster: yes
[08:33] <xnull-> narfmaster: i have grub installed
[08:33] <xnull-> narfmaster: any ideea?
[08:33] <narfmaster> vga=0x317
[08:34] <xnull-> narfmaster: thats 1024?
[08:34] <narfmaster> i think so
[08:34] <glDaher> I still cannot start my nvidia driver, I'm running nv and the info on the website doesn't help me much
[08:34] <narfmaster> xnull-, http://wiki.antlinux.com/pmwiki.php?n=HowTos.VgaModes
[08:34] <glDaher> how do I roll back from the latest updated kernel, because it worked fine before that
[08:35] <tiddlywinks> ok
[08:35] <colk> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=213420
[08:35] <xnull-> narfmaster: thanks
[08:35] <colk> i think that describes the issue
[08:35] <tiddlywinks> how about getting a windows machine to recognize the host name?
[08:35] <tiddlywinks> Is that going to require samba or something?
[08:36] <colk> yes
[08:36] <wolfherd> The_Don: Thx, I will read the web first!
[08:36] <colk> windows recognizing the host name will either take samba or a dns server
[08:37] <tiddlywinks> colk: I'll install samba.  I had planned to anyway.
[08:37] <colk> my other machine is a linux box so i could just use nfs
[08:37] <colk> :P
[08:37] <colk> im going to see if the live cd likes my system tonight
[08:38] <Sir_Fawnpug> IF you were introducing somebody to linux, would you do it with gnome, ubuntu, or enlightenment?
[08:38] <Sir_Fawnpug> err, kde
[08:38] <Sir_Fawnpug> *
[08:38] <Sir_Fawnpug> not ubuntu, the distro is going to be ubuntu regardless, haha.
[08:38] <narfmaster> Sir_Fawnpug, i'd do it with whatever i'm using at the time
[08:38] <achandra> hi. Has anyone run into issues with the pptp client in dapper..it complains about a circular dependancy
[08:39] <Sir_Fawnpug> narfmaster, well I'm using fluxbox which is probably deep water for somebody who's not computer literate
[08:40] <narfmaster> Sir_Fawnpug, maybe so but you learn by doing and watching others
[08:40] <hyperstream> hello yes im using ndiswrapper and wpa_supplicant to use my netgear wg11t, my signal is 0% and is dead slow recieving anything takes a long time. yet in windoze vista/xp it runs at 99% signal and is pretty fast ( 11mbit) any idea's ?
[08:40] <Sir_Fawnpug> narfmaster, true; I was just thinking flux would be a bit hard for somebody who wasn't tech-savvy to configure.
[08:40] <Sir_Fawnpug> brb, I gotta check on my gentoo box.
[08:41] <narfmaster> hyperstream, maybe you need to use a higher channel (total guess)
[08:42] <hyperstream> the channe l works fine in windows
[08:44] <ezx> the command line sysv config tool is sysv-rc?
[08:44] <ezx> i am using the breezy badgeer
[08:44] <The_Don> @ezx: sysv-rc-conf afaik
[08:45] <ezx> command not found ,do i need apt-get install ?
[08:45] <Sir_Fawnpug> Sweet, x is working
[08:46] <The_Don> errr, yes --> apt-get install sysv-rc-conf (at least in dapper)
[08:46] <ezx> i am using ssh , x is slow
[08:46] <Jeeves_> http://gallery.prevented.net/sunbuntupron
[08:46] <GStubbs43> Is there a way to change my touchpad so I can tap the bottom right instead of top right to use middle click?
[08:46] <ezx> but using apt-cache search sysv-rc-conf ,not found
[08:47] <narfmaster> Jeeves_, what's that link go to?
[08:47] <The_Don> @ezx: have you set universe in the sources.list ?
[08:47] <Jeeves_> narfmaster: Ehm, A gallery. SFW
[08:47] <asathoor> hi
[08:47] <narfmaster> ok
[08:48] <asathoor> i just got the rubybook via synaptic, but where is it?
[08:48] <asathoor> where are books stored on linux?
[08:48] <ezx> yeah i set ,i already install many many softwares
[08:48] <Oni-Dracula> right click, properties on the package in synaptic
[08:48] <Oni-Dracula> one of the tabs will have the paths it installs to
[08:48] <asathoor> thanx
[08:48] <narfmaster> asathoor, usually in /usr/share/doc/
[08:49] <asathoor> ok, i'll have a look there
[08:49] <paied> does anyone know why the gnome-terminal is the only one to mess up with JOE? http://www.opsat.net/temp/term_joe.png
[08:49] <The_Don> @ezx: its definitely in universe of breezy:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/admin/sysv-rc-conf
[08:50] <ezx> but my setting is cn.archive.ubuntu..., i will try now
[08:50] <narfmaster> paied, does it work in xterm?
[08:50] <paied> yes, the one behind it is xterm
[08:50] <paied> and it works in eterm
[08:50] <paied> and any other term you can think of i have tried.
[08:50] <narfmaster> paied, possibly a bug in gnome-terminal then
[08:51] <paied> been not working in gnome-terminal for as long as i can remember.
[08:51] <ezx> can a breezy using a dapper's repository>
[08:51] <paied> when i read about the updates they made to it in 2.14 i was like WOOT
[08:51] <paied> and... stilll broken.
[08:51] <ezx> it is safe?
[08:51] <MachineHeD> alright how do i ipconfig
[08:51] <asathoor> ok /usr/share/doc was the answer, thanx :)
[08:51] <The_Don> @ezx: that would probably f** up your system
[08:51] <narfmaster> MachineHeD, you mean ifconfig?
[08:52] <GStubbs43> Is there an easier way to detect/switch between wireless networks than having to go into Administration>Networking and all that???
[08:52] <ezx> whois jcoxon
[08:53] <MachineHeD> lol
[08:53] <MachineHeD> hahahahaha
[08:53] <The_Don> @ezx: recheck if you have set main restricted universe multiverse in your sources.list and be sure to run apt-get update
[08:53] <snoops> is it possible to move an application to a different display? eg my main is on :0, can I move a window from it onto say someones remote display eg :10?
[08:53] <MachineHeD> so its ifconfig?
[08:53] <MachineHeD> not ip
[08:53] <narfmaster> GStubbs43, s there's Network Manager but i can't say how well it works
[08:53] <ezx> The_Don ,ok ,i am tring
[08:53] <tiddlywinks> right, This is linux not windows
[08:54] <The_Don> thank god ^^
[08:54] <MachineHeD> hahah i feel dumb
[08:54] <MachineHeD> haha maybe i am
[08:54] <cheery> Is there any easy and safe way to define custom keyboard layouts?
[08:54] <ezx> already begin download the package libcurveperl
[08:54] <MachineHeD> and do i run that in terminal
[08:54] <cheery> or maybe howto for those things...
[08:54] <ezx> i think the sysv-rc-conf is write with perl and libcurse
[08:54] <narfmaster> MachineHeD, yes
[08:55] <The_Don> @ezx: manually downloading the dependencies is possible - though it would be better if you resolve the problems within apt first
[08:55] <MachineHeD> and what exactly will that do cuz i was told to do that earlyer cuz i cant access my internet and im trying to figure out how so im on my windows partion talking here and restarting back and forth trying to get it working its frustrating
[08:55] <hyperstream> hello yes im using ndiswrapper and wpa_supplicant to use my netgear wg11t, my signal is 0% and is dead slow recieving anything takes a long time. yet in windoze vista/xp it runs at 99% signal and is pretty fast ( 11mbit) any idea's ?
[08:56] <narfmaster> MachineHeD, ifconfig will not do anything except show you the interfaces unless you give it protocols and options and such
[08:56] <ezx> i am using sysv-rc-conf ,very thanks to all of you!
[08:57] <Sir_Fawnpug> MachineHeD, ipconfig throws me off on windows all the time.
[08:57] <The_Don> np
[08:57] <Sir_Fawnpug> Err, whoops
[08:57] <Sir_Fawnpug> I guess that was a while back.
[08:57] <Sir_Fawnpug> I keep on wanting to type ipconfig. I also have a bad habit of pressing alt-f4 to get to a nonexistant workspace.
[08:58] <achandra> hyperstream: is the driver you are using...the exact same one that you used in windoze?
[09:00] <hyperstream> yes
[09:00] <hyperstream> ndiswrapper requires you to load a .inf file
[09:00] <hyperstream> i used the original software / driver cd
[09:01] <achandra> okay...and you can see the wireless network you intend to connect to right? and make a connection....otherwise its just super slow right?
[09:02] <SurfnKid> are you using wlan-ng/?
[09:02] <Psykus> having some issues with flash video desyncing with the audio, is there any easy/quick fix?
[09:03] <TheRealDon> @Psykus: which browser do you use ?
[09:03] <SurfnKid> hyperstream, whats the adapter you using?
[09:03] <Psykus> firefox, using the one included with dapper drake, well, the updated one
[09:03] <SurfnKid> hyperstream, whats it doing
[09:04] <TheRealDon> check /etc/firefox/firefoxrc and lookout for FIREFOX_DSP= --> what is set in your firefoxrc ?
[09:05] <Psykus> TheRealDon: I did have it set to aoss, set it back to none in an attempt to fix the problem, didn't help any
[09:06] <TheRealDon> hmmz, sorry, then I dont know a solution.
[09:08] <TheRealDon> @Psykus: BTW: which flash plugin do u have installed ? the nonfree or the gpl flash version ?
[09:08] <Psykus> nonfree, does the gpl flash one work well for stuff like youtube and google video?
[09:11] <TheRealDon> not sure as I use nonfree too, but worth a try. How huge is the gap between A/V - cause I doubt, that there is a total sync possible with the flash crap
[09:12] <Psykus> it may start out ok, then gradually it will get worse and worse
[09:13] <Psykus> hm, just installed libflash, youtube didn't work,and homestarrunner crashed it :(
[09:14] <Psykus> still has some work to do I guess
[09:14] <TheRealDon> in fact, I have unsynced a/v too, but not that I really would care or not that it gets worse the longer the clip is
[09:15] <TheRealDon> flash just sucks in linux - you have to wait for the next year, when macromedia decides to drop a v8 compatible version
[09:15] <snoops> v9
[09:15] <TheRealDon> I wouldnt really expect that it will support v9
[09:15] <TheRealDon> if they postponed a v8 version
[09:16] <TheRealDon> they are steps behind the windows versions
[09:16] <snoops> umm, they said they would do a v8 last year.. then said they will do a v8.5.. then said they will do a v9
[09:16] <Psykus> " when macromedia decides to drop" adobe*
[09:16] <snoops> they said they're working v9 at the moment, and will be out early next year.. from an adobe blog
[09:16] <TheRealDon> read that too
[09:16] <asathoor> welll.... adobe bought macromedia, so that wont happen... ;)
[09:17] <TheRealDon> if it would be up to me, flash would be banned from all websites. I hate that crap
[09:17] <snoops> flash has its uses
[09:17] <narfmaster> flash is great for wasting bandwidth
[09:18] <TheRealDon> but only 5% use it the proper way
[09:18] <Psykus> i do despise when they do 100% of their site in flash, but I like it for stuff like web cartoons
[09:18] <cheery> If it would be up to me, the whole www would be rebuilt.
[09:18] <DBO> !offtopic
[09:18] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:18] <MachineHeD> ok i took a screenshot of my ifconfig when i did that can somone take a look
[09:19] <Psykus> also, can anyone point me toward how to enable xgl? i think i've installed the package, but don't see any difference..do I need to restart the GUI?
[09:19] <TheRealDon> @MachineHeD: have missed what you exactly want to do with ifconfig ?
[09:19] <DBO> Psykus, join #ubuntu-xgl and I can help you there
[09:19] <MachineHeD> well im having problems accessing the internet with ubuntu it just dont seem to work so somone told me to show that
[09:20] <TheRealDon> ah ok
[09:20] <slowz3r> Can anyone kinda guide me through installing an rpm file
[09:20] <MachineHeD> so right now im ruing on my windows partition trying to figure it out
[09:20] <MachineHeD> running not ruing
[09:20] <DBO> slowz3r, ubuntu uses deb files, not rpms
[09:20] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to start f4l?
[09:20] <DBO> slowz3r, what do you wish to install?
[09:21] <TheRealDon> @slowz3r: the magic word is alien
[09:21] <MachineHeD> so can somone give me a hand
[09:21] <slowz3r> DBO, Limewire....
[09:21] <slowz3r> DBO, and RPM is all thats on the site
[09:21] <Cntryboy> anyone?
[09:21] <narfmaster> f4l?
[09:22] <tomlikestorock> can anyone tell me why my wireless interface works, is recognized, totally kosher, but nm-applet doesn't see any interfaces?
[09:22] <DBO> slowz3r, yes, there are better alternatives to Limwire though, Limewire is closed to source.  Consider Frostwire or gtk-gnutella
[09:22] <MachineHeD> ?
[09:22] <narfmaster> tomlikestorock, Network Manager cannot use your hardware in it's in the interfaces file
[09:22] <slowz3r> DBO, how would those compare to limewire
[09:23] <icevid> How much memory do you need to install ubuntu....or how much memory is suggested?
[09:23] <Lukian> in Grub's boot.lst what defines an entry as the default?
[09:23] <DBO> slowz3r, they are comparable, I prefer gtk-gnutella because unlike limewire and frostwire it isnt a java app
[09:23] <tomlikestorock> narfmaster: eh? say that again?
[09:24] <tomlikestorock> narfmaster: what do you mean?
[09:24] <ajax4> icevid: How much do you have?
[09:24] <narfmaster> tomlikestorock, you need to remove the "/etc/network/interfaces" references to your hardware before Network Manager can use them
[09:24] <Cntryboy> Does anyone know how to start f4l flash proggy?
[09:24] <tomlikestorock> oh, totally remove it from interfaces?
[09:24] <TheRealDon> @MachineHeD: Have you done an ifconfig now ?
[09:24] <MachineHeD> yes
[09:25] <icevid> How much memory do you need to install ubuntu....or how much memory is suggested?
[09:25] <narfmaster> tomlikestorock, yes
[09:25] <DBO> 256MB is suggested icevid
[09:25] <slowz3r> DBO, ok..so i think ill tri frostwire...how would i go about installing deb
[09:25] <MachineHeD> i just posted my screenshot on that page
[09:25] <DBO> icevid, but I have run it on as low as 64MB
[09:25] <icevid> no...sry...hdd free space
[09:25] <TheRealDon> which page ?
[09:25] <slowz3r> DBO, nvm
[09:26] <DBO> icevid, I believe the smallest install I have ever seen is 1GB, but thats TIGHT
[09:26] <DBO> slowz3r, sudo apt-get install frostwire
[09:26] <icevid> is  25 gb good for installing ubuntu...packages...and user files?
[09:26] <DBO> icevid, that is plenty
[09:26] <bbrazil> icevid: that's tons of space
[09:26] <ajax4> icevid: Way more than enough.
[09:26] <MachineHeD> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:26] <nevyn> depends on the purpose...
[09:26] <icevid> ok 10x
[09:27] <nevyn> I've installed linux desktop systems in under 400mb
[09:27] <ajax4> icevid: I have pretty good set of apps for my desktop system and I use about 3 gigs.
[09:27] <MachineHeD> i think the link to it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17899
[09:27] <tomlikestorock> narfmaster: no go :(
[09:27] <TheRealDon> MachinHed: This is so small I nearly cant read
[09:28] <tomlikestorock> narfmaster: I take it back!
[09:28] <tomlikestorock> narfmaster: success! Thanks!
[09:28] <TheRealDon> but, which internet connection do u have and how do u enable it in windows ?
[09:28] <TheRealDon> is it via dhcp or static IP ?
[09:28] <wims> is it possible to exclude some packages completely from the update manager, or do i have to uncheck the packages i don't want every time there's an update ?
[09:29] <Daveyboy> hey there , my apache displays the content of my index.cgi, not the actual running of the application (bugzilla). Can you look at my pertinet files in apache to see where I made the mistake? I'm using ubuntu linux (debian) http://pastebin.ca/86798
[09:29] <narfmaster> wims, i think you can "Lock" a package in Synaptic
[09:29] <MachineHeD> dhcp
[09:29] <junkY_san> ndiswrapper -l   says: zd1211bu                driver present, hardware present. but theres no device visible with iwconfig
[09:30] <vigilante> Need help with Mupen64, anybody running it here?
[09:30] <TheRealDon> @wims: you could set it on halt too:
[09:30] <TheRealDon> echo packagename hold | dpkg --set-selections
[09:30] <wims> thanks
[09:30] <TheRealDon> MachineHeD: but do u have a static IP or dynamic ?
[09:30] <ajax4> wims: But it should only update the packages you have installed.
[09:30] <MachineHeD> dynamic
[09:31] <Vardis> ned help with xine on Amilo k7610 notebook
[09:31] <wims> yes, problem is my installation gets broken when kernel related packages are updated
[09:31] <wims> because i have a custom built kernel
[09:31] <ajax4> wims: Yeah, then you can exclude them as he mentioned.
[09:32] <cheery> Where X86Config is located?
[09:32] <anders_> hello
[09:32] <anders_> anybody here?
[09:32] <wims> yes
[09:32] <anders_> how do i fix so i can use: sudo?

[09:40] <cheery> icevid: that was for me?
[09:40] <icevid> it is an external drive though
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> Minty: uname -a
[09:40] <ajax4> icevid: And if I am reading the screencap right, you have the whole drive taken up by an NTFS partition with 70gb of that partition free?
[09:40] <icevid> no for ajax4
[09:40] <POVaddct> anders_: if you just want an editor with gui, use mousepad. it's already installed in xubuntu.
[09:41] <joycetick> ajax4: into the terminal right? thanks
[09:41] <icevid> yes
[09:41] <joycetick> ajax4: into the terminal right? thanks
[09:41] <icevid> so can i convert 25 gb of it to ext 3?
[09:41] <ajax4> joycetick: No problem. You can change nautilus to show hidden files also, if you'd rather do it that way.
[09:41] <deFrysk> hmm DBO has great powers :)
[09:41] <anders_> POVaddct: i fixed it
[09:41] <anders_> Where can i get JAVA?
[09:41] <TheRealDon> @MachineHeD: Cant you receive private messages ? Its a mess here to get into details

[09:42] <deFrysk> hmm
[09:42] <Nickay> Hi. I am try to install ubuntu server and i would like to ask which is the default root password. It didnt ask me to set password for root only to create a user. Thanks
[09:42] <ajax4> icevid: Okay, there is no free space on the disk to make a Linux partition on. You can have the installer resize existing partitions but I don't think it works for NTFS partitions.
[09:42] <joycetick> ajax4: umm, how do i make it look in the desktop for the file?
[09:42] <fyrestrtr> !root > Nickay
[09:42] <webben> DBO: could be something weird going on with the British layout i suppose
[09:42] <icevid> ok
[09:43] <ajax4> joycetick: I don't know why it wouldn't work. Desktop files would be in /home/yourname/Desktop
[09:43] <icevid> but can i convert a part of ntfs to ext3 without formatting
[09:43] <anders_> I dont find wheere to download java for xubuntu!!
[09:43] <llama32> i can't use any servers running on this box, and i can't ping localhost [also tried 127.0.0.1] ... any ideas?
[09:44] <deFrysk> converting fs to other fs requires formatting
[09:44] <ajax4> icevid: NTFS support is sketchy for linux. I don't think you can in Linux.
[09:44] <ajax4> anders_: see this page:
[09:44] <sertmann> I have problems getting my sound (NForce2 AC'97(integrated)) working with alsa, it's working properly in OSS - unfortuntly system sounds is not working, along with banshee and other audio apps, even though i've selected OSS in gstreamer-properties. So i recon i've got to go for alsa - but i can't find any modules on the alsa support page for RealTek/nvidia AC'97 cards... whay gives?

[09:44] <icevid> i know but can i convert ntfs to ext3?
[09:44] <anders_> iam, but it is just: java for kubuntu/ubuntu!!
[09:45] <fyrestrtr> llama32: type ifconfig in a terminal and see what happens.
[09:45] <ajax4> icevid: Not from Linux.
[09:45] <fyrestrtr> anders_: its the same.
[09:45] <icevid> is gparted good?
[09:45] <anders_> where can i download the java5-binpackage?
[09:45] <ajax4> icevid: Yes, it is. But it can only resize FAT partitions, not NTFS.
[09:45] <fyrestrtr> xubuntu just changes the de that you use, underneath its still all ubuntu/debian.
[09:46] <icevid> ok is fat supproted by linux?
[09:46] <fyrestrtr> anders_: from apt-get or synaptic.
[09:46] <fyrestrtr> icevid: yes, very well.
[09:46] <fyrestrtr> icevid: but fat32 is better (called vfat)
[09:46] <llama32> fyrestrtr: what should i be looking for?
[09:46] <joycetick> ajax4: typing mv filename new filename just keeps saying no such file or directory, and typing /home/myusername/desktop says bash: /home/..... is a directory
[09:46] <fyrestrtr> llama32: something called 'lo'
[09:46] <icevid> that goes without saying :)
[09:47] <Minty_> what site do I need for pastebin ?
[09:47] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: what are you typing exactly.
[09:47] <fyrestrtr> !pastebin > Minty_
[09:47] <icevid> and also can you convert fat32 to ext3?
[09:47] <joycetick> mv .Wad_Pack.rar Wad_Pack.rar
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: are you in the directory where these files are?
[09:48] <anders_> fyrestrtr: can u help me fast
[09:48] <llama32> fyrestrtr: can't see anything about 'lo'... what is it?
[09:48] <joycetick> i dont know how to change directory
[09:48] <lasindi[lappy] > Hi all, I recently installed the Samba updates, but now Synaptic and apt-get tell me that samba is a broken package. I've tried "apt-get install -f" like it told me to, but nothing seems to work. How can I make apt-get usable again?
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> llama32: lo = loopback interface, ie, 127.0.0.1
[09:48] <hayden> icevid, i believe you can't convert fat32 to ext3 (keeping all files intact) but you have to backup and format the partition to ext3
[09:48] <joycetick> thats what i was trying to ask before :P
[09:48] <deFrysk> joycetick, cd /to/your/dirctory
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: lol okay type pwd
[09:48] <llama32> fyrestrtr: ahhh... well it's not there... how do i make it work?
[09:48] <icevid> try to remove samba eh
[09:49] <webben> lasindi[lappy] : have you tried aptitude purge samba to completely remove samba?
[09:49] <fyrestrtr> llama32: try sudo ifup
[09:49] <Minty_> fyrestrtr pastebin.com doesnt work
[09:49] <deFrysk> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:49] <fyrestrtr> Minty_: try pastebin.ca
[09:49] <Minty_> correction its just slow
[09:49] <webben> lasindi: or just apt-get remove samba if you want to keep your current samba config files
[09:49] <fyrestrtr> llama32: sorry,  I meant to say, try sudo ifup -a
[09:50] <fyrestrtr> Minty_: something happened to their database, I got an error a few minutes ago.
[09:50] <bilss> hi
[09:50] <anders_> can anyone help me to install sun-java?
[09:50] <llama32> fyrestrtr: it doesn't signal an error or anything, but ifconfig still doesn't say lo and i still cant ping localhost
[09:50] <Minty_> pastebin.ca works just fine thanks
[09:51] <icevid> can u convert fat32 to ext3?
[09:51] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: yes, this is the output I get for this for that command: http://rafb.net/paste/results/ngmC0A10.html
[09:51] <bilss> DBO: how's it going?
[09:51] <kakalto> when trying 'startx', I get the error "error opening security policy file /etc/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
[09:51] <kakalto> "
[09:51] <DBO> hi bilss
[09:51] <mabus_> icevid: what do you mean by convert?
[09:51] <fyrestrtr> anders_: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[09:51] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: why are you typing startx?
[09:51] <bilss> DBO: hi how's the coffee
[09:51] <anders_> fyrestrtr: it couldent find the package...
[09:51] <Minty_> can some help me this please http://pastebin.ca/86811  as newbie ish at not sure how to fix it
[09:51] <ajax4> joycetick: did you get your problem fixed?
[09:52] <DBO> bilss... good
[09:52] <fyrestrtr> llama32: hrmm, okay -- what kind of computer are you on?
[09:52] <icevid> i want to make it exst3 from fat32
[09:52] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I just made a copy of my ubuntu install to another drive
[09:52] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: it starts kdm fine
[09:52] <fyrestrtr> anders_: read this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[09:52] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: but it won't log into a DE, not kde, not e17
[09:52] <joycetick> fyrestrtr: pwd says /home/sjoyce (thats my username), and cd /home/sjoyce/desktop or cd /desktop doesent work
[09:52] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: its cd Desktop
[09:52] <mabus_> icevid: You can put a filesystem on something. And you can backup the data first. But not really a one step "convert".
[09:52] <webben> lasindi[lappy] : the output ends with a colon on line 19?
[09:52] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: and I don't have network
[09:52] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty_: heh, that's the same problem I've got. webben is helping with this
[09:53] <llama32> fyrestrtr: hmm it works if i explicitly say ifup lo... it seems lo isn't on it's list of what to automatically use - how can i change this?
[09:53] <ajax4> joycetick: type: cd Desktop (had ot have the capital D)
[09:53] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: right
[09:53] <icevid> so you have to format?
[09:53] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: what *exactly* do you mean by 'made a copy of my ubuntu'? What steps did you take?
[09:53] <mabus_> joycetick: It's Desktop with a capital D
[09:53] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: cp -ravx
[09:53] <joycetick> ohhhh, captials lol
[09:53] <joycetick> thx
[09:53] <anders_> fyrestrtr: i have looked there
[09:53] <mabus_> no problem
[09:53] <deFrysk> joycetick, case sensitive
[09:53] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: next time, try ls beforehand so you know where you are :)
[09:54] <shiundu> anybody managed to upgrade breezy to dapper?
[09:54] <mabus_> joycetick: or press tab to complete things
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> anders_: did you enable multiverse as it states at the very top?
[09:54] <ajax4> icevid: If it was an FAT partition you could resize, but not NTFS. A Windows partition resizer might work because it would be able to resize NTFS.
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> shiundu: sure, twice.
[09:54] <bilss> DBO: please take a look at this thread and give me your understanding --its pretty easy http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214790 (
[09:54] <anders_> nope fyrestrtr
[09:54] <joycetick> thanks guys that worked :)
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> anders_: well I'm not a scientist, but I would guess that's your problem :)
[09:54] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: any ideas where I can go from here? I have no network and I can't log into a GUI from kdm; when running x from the command line, it gives me that error
[09:54] <icevid> ok
[09:54] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , are you upgrading to dapper?
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: I don't think your permissions transferred correctly.
[09:55] <shiundu> How did you do it? when I try I get a message saying "it is not possible to upgrade all packages"
[09:55] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: that's what -a is meant to cover
[09:55] <anders_> fyrestrtr: what shall i download there?
[09:55] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: no, this is a clean dapper install
[09:55] <icevid> but ajax4 can i convert a partition of fat32 to ext3?
[09:55] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , weird, but anyhow this might be related to this bug: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/48082
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> anders_: read the page please, the instructions are there. Read, then ask a question about what you don't understand.
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: maybe you mean llama32 :)
[09:55] <deFrysk> icevid, fortmat it to ext3
[09:55] <DBO> bilss, packages are made essentially the same way in debian as they are in ubuntu
[09:55] <anders_> oki
[09:55] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: whah? llama32?
[09:55] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , i can't promise anything but try sudo "rm /etc/rc2.d/S91samba"
[09:55] <ajax4> icevid: I don't think so. You'd have to backup everything on that parition, remove the FAT partition and create a new ext3 partition where the fat used to be.
[09:56] <fyrestrtr> icevid: no, that's not possible.
[09:56] <gast_> hallo
[09:56] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , oops: "sudo rm /etc/rc2.d/S91samba"
[09:56] <icevid> ok 10x
[09:56] <bilss> DBO: ok and applying debian rules in command line in dapper?
[09:56] <anders_> fyrestrtr: can i install java with synaptic?
[09:56] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , actually you could copy that before removing it
[09:56] <llama32> kakalto: my ifup -a won't do lo, but when i go "ifup lo" it works... i assume you were responding to that?
[09:56] <DBO> bilss, still works the same
[09:56] <joycetick> umm, how do i change to a directory that has a space in it, keeps saying it couldent find the first word of the folder name
[09:56] <ajax4> joycetick: put quotes around the whole name.
[09:56] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , hold on
[09:56] <deFrysk> anders_, maybe you should read help.ubuntu.com
[09:56] <bilss> DBO: ok thanks so i can say on the command line debian rules
[09:56] <ajax4> joycetick: like this: cd "/home/myname/my files"
[09:56] <kakalto> llama32: nope, fyrestrtr was getting confused
[09:57] <mabus_> joycetick: or just put a backslash \ before spaces
[09:57] <fyrestrtr> anders_: first, enable multiverse repositories by reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories -- then, you can install it by following the directions on this page > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[09:57] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: that symlink points to /samba
[09:57] <mabus_> joycetick: and remember to tab complete.. saves typing
[09:57] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: which of course doesn't exist
[09:57] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: cp -r_A_vx - the 'a' is archive, keep same permissions and whatnot
[09:57] <deFrysk> anders_, help.ubuntu.com holds most answers to your questions
[09:57] <DBO> bilss, if you need, there is a new maintainers guide on the wiki
[09:57] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: are you creating the same users with the same gid/uid on the other machine?
[09:57] <joycetick> thanks aja4 and mabus_
[09:58] <ajax4> joycetick: np
[09:58] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I copied all, including home dir
[09:58] <kakalto> yes.
[09:58] <webben> lasindi: ah ... it's an old fix but might still work, try redirecting to /etc/init.d/samba a la this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=6318
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: the easy way would be to reconfigure xorg, or just do what I do -- run apt-cache or copy the debs over to the other machine, and then just issue apt-get like normal.
[09:58] <kakalto> I did reconfigure xorg.
[09:58] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , if that fails i'd probably just delete the symlink (you can remake it if necessary)
[09:58] <bilss> DBO: do you have the url please
[09:58] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: run "apt-cache" with what parameters?
[09:59] <DBO> bilss, not right now, you can just search the wiki, it should be easy enough to find
[09:59] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , looks like other peple are having similar problems are just removing the symlink works: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214444&highlight=s91samba
[09:59] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: everything relating to ubuntu was copied to the second computer. However, the second computer is now without internet
[09:59] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: sorry, meant apt-cacher -- the local apt proxy. Helps if you have more than one machine -- speeds up installs.

[09:59] <joycetick> When trying to access shared folders on ubuntu from a windows computer it comes up with a username/password box which wont accept my ubuntu login info, how can i get around this?
[09:59] <lasindi[lappy] > webben: it works fine now, I just reinstalled and it works like a charm. Thanks for the help
[09:59] <webben> lasindi[lappy] , good stuff :)
[09:59] <bilss> ok i look for maintainers guide
[09:59] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: you can't just copy and paste files, without knowing about gui/uid :)
[10:00] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: the second machine, just has an exact copy (including guid/uid) of the first machine
[10:00] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty_: did you see all that?
[10:00] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: you need to edit the smb.conf file and add permissions to your share.
[10:00] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: that's what cp -r A vx covers - a for archive
[10:00] <Minty_> no :(
[10:00] <bilss> DBO: thanks for your suggestions
[10:00] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: *sigh* -- I can't help you.
[10:00] <lakbu> my pc has no cdrom... but it has a landcard.. how can i install ubuntu via ftp or via internet?
[10:00] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: thanks anyway
[10:00] <kakalto> well
[10:01] <kakalto> take this as an example
[10:01] <nevyn> lakbu: you don't have access to even a usb cdrom?
[10:01] <lakbu> nevyn: yes.
[10:01] <lakbu> old box.
[10:01] <kakalto> if I just installed a network card into my computer, how could I configure it from the command line?
[10:01] <nevyn> lakbu: how old?
[10:01] <joycetick> fyrestrtr: hmm, and where would i be able to find this file. i dont remember having to do that last time i setup Samba on 5.04
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: ifconfig
[10:01] <mabus_> kakalto: ifconfig
[10:01] <bilss> Oompa: morning
[10:01] <kakalto> ok. I run ifconfig... it sees lo and eth1
[10:01] <mabus_> kakalto: well, man ifconfig might help more
[10:01] <kakalto> no eth0, interestingly
[10:01] <lakbu> not that old .. it's just that it has no cdrom.
[10:01] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty_: run this command in a terminal: sudo rm /etc/rc2.d/S91samba
[10:02] <DBO> kakalto, ifconfig eth0 up
[10:02] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: /etc/samba/
[10:02] <nevyn> lakbu: it's going to be way easier to put a cdrom in it even temporarilly than to setup the required infrastructure for network installing
[10:02] <kakalto> DBO: there is no eth0
[10:02] <nevyn> I'm not saying it can't be done..
[10:02] <mabus_> kakalto: read man ifconfig
[10:02] <kakalto> I have an eth1. no eth0.
[10:02] <Minty_> rm: cannot remove `/etc/rc2.d/S91samb': No such file or directory
[10:02] <nevyn> lakbu: are we talking about a desktop/tower system or something more exotic.
[10:02] <mabus_> ifconfig only shows running things
[10:02] <DBO> kakalto, I know, it doesnt show until you bring it up
[10:02] <lakbu> nevyn: actually it's a laptop... and i think.. the cdrom drive is busted.. it cant read cdrom
[10:02] <mabus_> ifconfig -a should show eth0
[10:02] <kakalto> DBO: no such device.
[10:03] <mabus_> or whatever your other network card is
[10:03] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: your network card is detected?
[10:03] <nevyn> lakbu: can it boot off usb cdrom?
[10:03] <revilot> all of a sudden i cant connect to google or yahoo, any ideas?
[10:03] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty_: are you sure you copied the entire command? It should be "/etc/rc2.d/S91samba", not "/etc/rc2.d/S91samb"
[10:03] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I have 1 (one) network card. it is detected as eth1, but it doesn't seem to connect up to my router
[10:03] <lakbu> nevyn: i dont have a usb device.
[10:03] <mabus_> revilot: hmm that is strange
[10:03] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: when you type ifconfig -a, does it show up?
[10:04] <revilot> mabus: feels like spyware
[10:04] <Minty> whoops sorry, done
[10:04] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: yes. eth1 shows up.
[10:04] <Minty> now what
[10:04] <qsrv> hello
[10:04] <lakbu> nevyn: it has a windoze partition, can i just copy an ubuntu iso there ..
[10:04] <nevyn> no.
[10:04] <nevyn> lakbu: how much ram/cpu does this system have?
[10:04] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: your router has dhcp or you have to manually assign addresses?
[10:04] <nevyn> is it really going to be worth it?
[10:04] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: dhcp
[10:04] <lakbu> nevy: it's a centrino.
[10:04] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty: did you want Samba installed or removed?
[10:04] <Minty> stupid question how do I get the name of the person in fromt of my line od test whithout just writing it doawn ??
[10:05] <mabus_> revilot: well, it's not the same game with 'nix as it is windows
[10:05] <ajayc> is there anything like kxdocker for gnome?
[10:05] <Minty> want to install the nwe version
[10:05] <revilot> mabus: ya but this feels awfully suspicious
[10:05] <lakbu> nevyn: it's just that, the cd drive is busted...
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: grep eth1 /etc/network/interfaces <-- what do you see?
[10:05] <ajayc> anyone?
[10:05] <lasindi[lappy] > Minty: run this command: sudo apt-get remove samba && sudo apt-get install samba
[10:05] <mabus_> revilot: It could be a lot of things, I could have a look for you if you'd like.
[10:05] <ajayc> anything like kxdocker for gnome?
[10:05] <ajax4> Minty: type the first few letters, then hit tab
[10:06] <fyrestrtr> ajayc: try gdesklets
[10:06] <Minty> lasindi[lappy] : brilliant thbnaks
[10:06] <revilot> mabus: i cant connect with any site that has anything to do with google at all, like google ads
[10:06] <DBO> ajayc, not really, there is gnome-dock, but that is alpha and cpu intensive, there is also akamaru which is really cool but you have to compile yourself
[10:06] <kakalto> auto eth1<newline> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[10:06] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: %
[10:06] <kakalto> err
[10:06] <ajayc> please someone tell me
[10:06] <kakalto> ^
[10:06] <fyrestrtr> revilot: you are not in china, are you?
[10:06] <ajayc> anything like kxdocker for gnome?
[10:06] <revilot> fyrestrtr: lol no
[10:06] <lakbu> nevyn: the  alternatives i have is too repair the cd drive or buy a new one or install via network.
[10:06] <ajayc> please
[10:07] <lakbu> nevyn: no idea how to install via network.
[10:07] <KJro> hello
[10:07] <DBO> ajayc, we have already answered your question, please read the responses
[10:07] <ajayc> DBO: ok
[10:07] <nevyn> lakbu: if the bios has good support for usb... you could get by with a cheap dvdrom in 5.25" enclosure
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: okay and when you do sudo ifup eth0 and then ifconfig eth0 do you see an ip address?
[10:07] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: you mean eth1?
[10:07] <revilot> mabus: i cant connect to ubuntuforums either
[10:07] <KJro> any luck finding out how i could change in DAPPER the icon from the main menu ???
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: sorry, yes.
[10:07] <nevyn> lakbu: usbkey might be a better bet if you have one.
[10:07] <mabus_> revilot: check msgs?
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> revilot: sounds like a problem with your internet connection then.
[10:08] <lakbu> nevyn: i dont have that luxury right now. hehe
[10:08] <joycetick> fyrestrtr: it wont let me save the file, do i have to do it through the terminal, if so is gedit the command to edit files
[10:08] <DBO> revilot, try to connect to http://207.234.170.217
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> joycetick: you need to open it as root to save it (ie, use sudo)
[10:08] <lakbu> nevyn: the only thing that's working is the network connection.
[10:08] <nevyn> lakbu: ubuntu's installation methods seem to be realativly focused around the cd ;)
[10:08] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: no.....
[10:08] <lakbu> nevyn: ye. i noticed.
[10:09] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: is 'ifup eth1' meant to return me to the command line?
[10:09] <revilot> DBO: no go
[10:09] <Flannel> lakbu: there are instructions for netinstall, etc.
[10:09] <nevyn> lakbu: you may have more luck with debian.
[10:09] <nevyn> Flannel: netinstall still boots off cd
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: yes.
[10:09] <ajayc> DBO: i aint getting akamaru on net! please gimme the link
[10:09] <Psykus> a while back someone recommended this script that would automatically setup mounted partitions and drives..can't remember what it is, though I think it was on the wiki.?
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: then hit ifconfig eth1
[10:09] <nevyn> he needs a full PXE boot environment and supporting infrastructure
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: eth1 is a normal *wired* network card, right?
[10:09] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: it can't recieve the dhcp stuff
[10:09] <nevyn> which is non-trivial to configure
[10:09] <Flannel> nevyn: nah, there are plenty.  Here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[10:09] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: yes.
[10:09] <mabus_> revilot: are you getting my private messages?
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: sudo apt-get install dhcp-client
[10:09] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: but...
[10:10] <kakalto> uhm ok
[10:10] <DBO> ajayc, http://people.freedesktop.org/~krh/akamaru.git/
[10:10] <revilot> mabus: i just responded to you
[10:10] <Flannel> er, lakbu that link is for you too
[10:10] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: interestingly, the card's lights just keep flashing, about a second apart
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: how many network cards do you have in the machine?
[10:10] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: to install dhcp-client, it would remove dhcp3-client
[10:11] <mabus_> revilot: I'm not getting your replies, you have to be identified on freenode
[10:11] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: 1 (ONE)
[10:11] <Psykus> nevermind, I found it
[10:11] <mabus_> revilot: is your nick registered?
[10:11] <revilot> mabus:no
[10:11] <lakbu> Flannel: tried that ....
[10:11] <Flannel> lakbu: all of the pertinant methods?
[10:11] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: you 100% sure about this? No built-in network cards, no wireless, etc. Normally the first network card is eth0 not eth1
[10:11] <Vardis> how is posible compile kernel from sources ?
[10:11] <mabus_> revilot: hmm well, you should... /msg nickserv register password
[10:12] <lakbu> Flannel: The Installation\Netboot
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> Vardis: sudo apt-get install build-essential, then download the sources and compile like in any other distro.
[10:12] <nevyn> Flannel: you're right
[10:12] <DBO> fyrestrtr, perhaps its time to glance at his kernel log and see if something did get assigned to eth0 or if it just skipped it
[10:12] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I thought it was weird too. but I am 100% sure there is only 1 card
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: dmesg | grep eth type that, and pastebin what you get.
[10:12] <Flannel> lakbu: so, what DO you have to work with?
[10:12] <Vardis> fyrestrtr, I tried o got erors in som lines somthing ebout kantcrat even menu
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> Vardis: ???
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> Vardis: is there a reason you want to build a kernel from scratch?
[10:13] <anders_> how do i activate my webjava?
[10:13] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I get no output
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> anders_: that same page I told you to go to, scroll down and read all of it.
[10:14] <DBO> anders_, "sudo update-alternatives --config java" select the one that has the word sun in it
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: ??? you get no output?
[10:14] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: yes. isn't this getting just weirder and weirder?
[10:14] <Vardis> fyrestrtr, well maybe i can get beter kernel for amd sempron K8 notebook
[10:14] <anders_> DBO: it says nothing to configurate
[10:14] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I've copied the same way, a distro before, and it ran fine
[10:14] <DBO> anders_, you need to install sun java
[10:14] <anders_> i have
[10:15] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: ah. maybe I should have booted into a livecd, and copied the dead environment
[10:15] <kakalto> hmm.
[10:15] <DBO> anders_, you have done "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre" ?
[10:15] <anders_> yes
[10:15] <anders_> i got it
[10:15] <DBO> anders_, then it should be properly configured
[10:15] <anders_> but it dont support it in mozilla
[10:16] <anders_> anything i have to change there?
[10:16] <deFrysk> anders_, nothing to configure is correct
[10:16] <deFrysk> you have no other java versions installed
[10:16] <anders_> nope
[10:16] <deFrysk> so java should work now
[10:16] <DBO> anders_, I believe firefox blocks java by default, but Im not sure
[10:16] <anders_> not in firefox
[10:16] <deFrysk> shut down all firefoxes first
[10:17] <MachineHeD> why when i try to open networking does it attempt to open but it doesnt open it look likes its going to then looks like it closes itself
[10:17] <deFrysk> and then restart firefox
[10:17] <anders_> still not working
[10:17] <deFrysk> anders_, and then try again
[10:17] <anders_> huh?
[10:18] <synd2> Where is the Beep-Media-Player theme dir?
[10:18] <rsk> in home
[10:18] <KJro> YO GUYS.... how knows how to change the main menu bar icon in DAPPER ...... who has the time to try to find it... now ... ??????
[10:18] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: please, just boot from the livecd and install the system from scratch. Your copy + paste trick is causing more problems than its helping. Install dapper or from the desktop cd, then copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archives from your current machine to the new one, then just run apt-get update/apt-get upgrade and it will be updated without having to download the deb packages again.
[10:18] <anders_> deFrysk: how do i fix that?
[10:19] <deFrysk> anders_, and sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre installed correctly ?

[10:19] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: my overall problem is that I have 12GB of data I cannot save anywhere
[10:19] <deFrysk> sudo update-alternatives --config java
[10:19] <LoneShadow> anyone installed a livecd onto a 1gb usb drive ?
[10:19] <deFrysk> did you key that in correctly ?
[10:19] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: fyrestrtr: the only place was the 2nd computer's hard drive.
[10:19] <anders_> yes..
[10:19] <kakalto> woops
[10:20] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: so, I was trying to save the data, while getting a linux install on it
[10:20] <colk> question how do you get the kernel source for 2.6.15
[10:20] <KJro> ges no-one
[10:20] <crimsun> colk: apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
[10:20] <asathoor> how can I configure a usb TV stick?
[10:20] <colk> ah thanks i was thinking it was kernel-source:)
[10:21] <anders_> deFrysk: what is the problem? :(
[10:22] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: there isn't enough space to create a partition for your data and have space left for ubuntu?
[10:22] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: I have a 40gb hard drive - 256mb swap + 50mb boot + the rest one big ext3 partition
[10:22] <kakalto> I didn't think you could resize ext3
[10:23] <Ensiferum> no windows? :o
[10:23] <kakalto> or can you?
[10:23] <DBO> kakalto, you can
[10:23] <anders_> anyone can help me how do i fix my webjava?
[10:23] <kakalto> bleah. I make it awful complicated for myself.
[10:23] <kakalto> let me guess, I can do it with qtparted?
[10:23] <DBO> or gparted if you are a gnome user
[10:24] <KJro> i been thinking.. it would be a good idea if ... the automatic updater updates something .. he asks the user for selecting the old packages for removal.. or making a list with the old packages for an automatic "apt-get remove".... WOLD THIS BE POSIBLE
[10:24] <KJro> ??????????/
[10:24] <anders_> anyone that can help me to install java for web, iam using xubuntu!
[10:24] <kakalto> livecd time.
[10:24] <kakalto> =D
[10:24] <Ensiferum> KJro: you cant remove anything from the system, it'll breka down like a piece of crap
[10:24] <qsrv> what do you use to manage network connections on laptops? I need something that can take care of both wireless (with wpa) and ethernet connections. A command-line tool would do.
[10:24] <Ensiferum> ;)
[10:25] <asathoor> qsrv >> try iwconfig
[10:25] <asathoor> qsrv >> or iwlist
[10:25] <KJro> Ensiferum .. i can .. already did.. the old kernel versions.... :p
[10:25] <Werdsfa> anybody have idea how to fix picture distortion on second display(tv with less resolution) with xv output? (bottom 1/3 picture left out and rest is stretched on window.) primary display works perfectly.
[10:26] <fyrestrtr> qsrv: system > administration > networking
[10:26] <anders_> anyone that is good at java?
[10:26] <KJro> those are the most anoing ones.... cus the grub boot menu keeps getting bigger and bigger
[10:27] <KJro> each day (don't miss understand me it's verry good that they work SOO MUCH on updates )
[10:28] <deFrysk> anders_, ls  /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
[10:28] <Flannel> KJro: you can remove those you know.
[10:28] <anders_> ok the+
[10:28] <deFrysk> check if you see libjavaplugin.so
[10:28] <anders_> libunixprintplugin.so
[10:28] <anders_> thats all
[10:28] <KJro> i know... already did.. would be glad if it where made automaticly
[10:28] <Flannel> KJro: the reason the updates don't automatically remove old kernels is because in the off chance that the new one breaks and you can't boot, you can go back to the old one
[10:29] <imbrandon_> jiphex, can i help you ?
[10:29] <imbrandon_> jiphex, please dont ctpc the whole room
[10:29] <KJro> that i though as well ... that's why ask the user what to remove
[10:29] <anders_> deFrysk: what shall i do?
[10:29] <jiphex> sorry, i didnt mean to, mistyped a command in bitchx
[10:30] <nevyn> sigh bitchx... has it's window binding code been fixed yet?
[10:30] <jiphex> im in console mode
[10:30] <deFrysk> anders_,  cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.06/jre/plugin/i386/ns7
[10:30] <colk_> oops
[10:30] <colk_> installing net drivers while your on the net isnt a good thing
[10:31] <nevyn> it's easy to break things that way...
[10:31] <anders_> deFrysk: after that+
[10:31] <seamus_ie> hey all
[10:31] <colk_> argh
[10:31] <KJro> ok... let's ask again ... :D dose anyone know how to change the icon from the main menu bar in DAPPER ?
[10:32] <synd2> I'm trying to do "su -p" in Terminal and I'm entering the right password and it says "Authentication error"
[10:32] <synd2> Any help?
[10:32] <deFrysk> anders_, thats not correct what i did , give me a sec
[10:32] <kakalto> synd2: su is disabled by default
[10:32] <fyrestrtr> !root > synd2
[10:32] <anders_> synd2, sudo passwd
[10:32] <fyrestrtr> anders_: no, no, no.
[10:33] <anders_> :o ok
[10:33] <deFrysk> anders_, in all honesty i do not know
[10:33] <anders_> ok
[10:33] <anders_> deFrysk: but iam in that file..
[10:33] <deFrysk> give me a sec
[10:33] <anders_> ty :o)
[10:34] <rixth> YOu know when you connect a camera, a dialog comes up saying "camera detected" then a button to "ignore forever" or whatever, how do I un-ignore?
[10:34] <synd2> anders_: Thanks
[10:34] <anders_> did it work? :o
[10:34] <deFrysk> anders_, so you did install : sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[10:35] <deFrysk> anders?
[10:35] <anders_> yes sir :)
[10:35] <astro_-> rixth: you can't, it's FOREVER! ;)
[10:35] <astro_-> rixth: just kidding.. sorry, don't know your answer though :)
[10:35] <rixth> Aw =(
[10:35] <colk_> easy ubuntu is fuin
[10:35] <colk_> :)
[10:35] <deFrysk> anders_, and you accepted the licence agreement and all during install
[10:35] <deFrysk> ?
[10:36] <anders_> yes?
[10:36] <anders_> :o
[10:36] <deFrysk> yes ?
[10:36] <deFrysk> you sure ?
[10:36] <anders_> i have accepted all
[10:36] <anders_> ofc
[10:36] <deFrysk> anders honestly it should "just" work then
[10:36] <anders_> weird?
[10:36] <anders_>  :S
[10:36] <deFrysk> anders_, you are on a normal pc ?
[10:36] <jiphex> whats the problem anders?
[10:37] <anders_> deFrysk: yes
[10:37] <anders_> jiphex: java problems :o
[10:37] <jiphex> ah
[10:37] <deFrysk> jiphex, his sunjava does not seem to be willing to work
[10:37] <jiphex> oh, i se
[10:37] <anders_> but it is right installed
[10:37] <jiphex> e
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> that's because he didn't read the java wiki properly.
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> as I have told him many times to go and read it.
[10:37] <anders_> fyrestrtr: iam lazy =p
[10:37] <asathoor> anyone here with a pinnacle usb tv-tuner?
[10:38] <ubuntu> how can i download torrents from the terminal?
[10:38] <POVaddct> anders_: well then it's your problem
[10:38] <ubuntu> i mean what torrent program will run in the terminal
[10:38] <deFrysk>  btdownloadcurses.bittorrent
[10:39] <anders_>  jiphex can u answer on the question? :op
[10:39] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: please change your nick.
[10:39] <Nilsy> ubuntu, I googled on consol torrent and the first linke seems like what you need http://ctorrent.sourceforge.net/
[10:39] <fyrestrtr> anders_: read the wiki page. We are here to help those that are willing to help themselves.
[10:39] <jiphex> i dont really know what your problem is
[10:39] <deFrysk> fyrestrtr, he has installed sunjava correctly
[10:39] <deFrysk> it just does not seem to work
[10:39] <anders_> jiphex: i got java installed, but it wont be active when i shall open java programs
[10:40] <jiphex> only odd thing i had to do when i installed java was change the alias for 'java' from gij to the sunjava5 stuff
[10:40] <anders_> exackly command? :O
[10:40] <rixth> ubuntu, rtorrent works well. BUt you could just use a command line to azureus...
[10:40] <ubuntu> i think i fork bombed my computer earlier with too many torrent downloads
[10:40] <jiphex> err, hang on
[10:40] <fyrestrtr> deFrysk: he doesn't want to read the wiki. The first time I told him to go there, he said, okay I read it, it doesn't work. Then I said, did you enable multiverse as it states on the top of the page? He said no. I told him to go do that. A few minutes go by, and he's back with 'hey, how do I get java to work'.
[10:41] <deFrysk> fyrestrtr, thank for the info
[10:41] <fyrestrtr> anders_: read the wiki page!!! Its right there you lazy git!
[10:41] <anders_> fyrestrtr: i tried to read it but i dident find...
[10:41] <anders_> :@@
[10:41] <deFrysk> sounds like trolling then
[10:41] <ubuntu> does bittorrent work from the command line? i think it does because the bit torrent package with a gui is a seperate package.
[10:41] <deFrysk>  btdownloadcurses.bittorrent blah.torrent
[10:41] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: it does, there is a ncurses client available.
[10:41] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: type bt then hit tab in the terminal to see your options.
[10:42] <synd2> How do you force quit a window?
[10:42] <axisme> anders_, did you install the sun-java5-plugin  ?
[10:42] <anders_> nope :o
[10:42] <axisme> install it then
[10:42] <anders_> apt-get install sun-java5-plugin ?
[10:42] <jiphex> try 'alias java="/usr/local/java/bin/java"
[10:43] <Madpilot> synd2, try clicking on the Close button a few times - the X in the top-right corner
[10:43] <fyrestrtr> jiphex: that's not the right way to do it, there is a tool to manage that.
[10:43] <jiphex> ah i see
[10:43] <jiphex> i didnt know that :p
[10:43] <anders_> axisme: i got a prob with install
[10:43] <fyrestrtr> synd2: from a terminal, type xkill, then left click on the stuck window.
[10:43] <synd2> Madpilot: No avail
[10:43] <axisme> o?
[10:43] <Madpilot> jiphex, that's not the correct path, either
[10:43] <axisme> i just did it...worked ok with me
[10:44] <Madpilot> synd2, hmm, that usually works for me - three or four clicks on the X
[10:44] <asathoor> how can I configure /dev/video0 - I have panasonic usb tv - and use TVtime
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> asathoor: are you sure its supported?
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> Madpilot: sometimes, an app just gets stuck and then its xkill to the rescue :)
[10:44] <asathoor> fyrestrtr >> no
[10:45] <axisme> anders_, whats the install problem then?
[10:45] <ubuntu> can a ubuntu harddrive be moved to another computer and work on a different computer other than the one it was installed on?
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> asathoor: try googling your product name/version and linux. I don't know anything about tv tuners in linux.
[10:45] <ubuntu> has anyone tried that?
[10:45] <anders_> axisme: hum, cant translate it into english sry :o
[10:45] <rsk> ubuntu, it must be the same.
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: most likely, it won't work.
[10:46] <rsk> ubuntu, installing dosent take much time.
[10:46] <ubuntu> rsk, have you tried it
[10:46] <rsk> no but i know anyhow
[10:46] <axisme> if apt-get didn't do it for you, try synaptic...if its not in there you don't have all the respositories selected
[10:46] <asathoor> fyrestrtr >> ok, someday, someone will write a driver...
[10:46] <ubuntu> rsk, no you dont. you are assuming.
[10:46] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: unless its an exact clone machine, only then -- otherwise, no.
[10:46] <anders_> I think its wrong with java-applet-runtime
[10:46] <fyrestrtr> asathoor: have you tried mythtv?
[10:46] <rsk> ubuntu, yes im assuming it wont work, try and i know im right.
[10:47] <ubuntu> rsk you must not know much about hotplug
[10:47] <axisme> anders_, remove every mention of java on the system. then follow the wiki and install that plugin
[10:47] <axisme> then it should work
[10:47] <Kanpachi> hello, whenever i try to play video with totem vlc or mplayer, the colors are all saturated, what can i do?
[10:47] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: you must not know about hardware ;)
[10:47] <anders_> i instaleld java from: Automatix
[10:47] <Pupeno_> Hello.
[10:47] <fyrestrtr> anders_: ask in #automatix then.
[10:48] <ubuntu> fyrestrtr, you must not know much about hotplug either
[10:48] <Pupeno_> How do I configure (k)ubuntu to use wpa2-pks ? (at the /etc/network/interfaces level if possible).
[10:49] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: ermm, no. I know a few things about hotplug, just that hotplug + ubuntu = ??? (unknown results). Cloning machines is not a problem.
[10:49] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: unless you are using blades.
[10:49] <Pupeno_> or wpa-pks otherwise.
[10:50] <Kanpachi> hello, whenever i try to play video with totem vlc or mplayer, the colors are all saturated, what can i do?
[10:51] <Fjodor> Pupeno_: Unless you are using a ralink nic (builtin wpa in driver), you need to also run wpa_supplicant
[10:51] <Fjodor> Pupeno_: or hostapd, if it's an ap
[10:51] <Pupeno_> Fjodor: that's for wpa2, wpa or both ?
[10:51] <Fjodor> Pupeno_: Both
[10:52] <rixth> Interesting. The USB ports (4 of them) and the card reader integrated into the Dell 24" Wide LCDs work out of the box.
[10:52] <Pupeno_> Fjodor: outch.
[10:52] <Nickay> Hi i have install kubuntu but i have problem with my sceen resolution. How can configure it from console?Thanks
[10:52] <fyrestrtr> rixth: how do you like that monitor from dell? I was thinking about getting one.
[10:52] <Fjodor> Pupeno_: Sorry, but that's how it is
[10:52] <axisme> pupeno, have you tried the gnome network manager?
[10:52] <fyrestrtr> !resolution
[10:52] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:52] <axisme> i only use it with wpa tkip, dunno if it works with the others
[10:53] <ubuntu> Nickay, "sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[10:53] <Pupeno_> axisme: I am not running gnome.
[10:53] <rixth> fyrestrtr, don't buy it for its component inputs... when using as a HD-TV say with an Xbox 360, it's not that great (but not bad). As a monitor however, it is mindblowing
[10:53] <axisme> ah hehe
[10:53] <Pupeno_> axisme: and I prefeer to configure my network on /etc/network/interfaces due to some particularities.
[10:53] <Pupeno_> !wpa

[10:53] <rixth> fyrestrtr, do you want a real-world picture?
[10:53] <axisme> good luck then
[10:53] <AlexC> Hey
[10:53] <ubuntu> you dont have to type in those commands to restart x. all you have to do is push control and backspace at the same time.
[10:54] <AlexC> Is there a GUI MySQL application to view remote databases?
[10:54] <fyrestrtr> rixth: sure
[10:54] <fyrestrtr> AlexC: MySQL Query Browser and MySQL Administrator (both in repos)
[10:55] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu: ctrl+alt+backspace :)
[10:55] <Nickay> thanks
[10:56] <AlexC> fyrestrtr, thanks
[10:56] <ubuntu> india is a bad place. i would hate to live there.
[10:56] <fyrestrtr> rixth: do you know what's the delay on it? Sometimes I like to play games and I have been told by my cs-playing freak...err..friend that a monitor's delay can cause problems with gaming.
[10:57] <rixth> fyrestrtr, do you have a fast connection or do I need to size this image down?
[10:57] <fyrestrtr> fast enough :)
[10:57] <rixth> fyrestrtr, well people talk about it... but I haven't noticed it, I play some games on it but not hardcore or anything. i can't perceive any lag. Can't complain about the 6ms (grey to grey) response time (12ms black to white)
[10:58] <KJro> YUHUUUUU
[10:58] <KJro> !!!!!!!!

[10:58] <KJro> made it .. whit help of my friend... i succesfully changed the icon from the main menu....
[10:59] <rixth> fyrestrtr, the light is very evenly distributed too
[10:59] <rixth> fyrestrtr, http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/5049/dsc036401fw.jpg
[10:59] <Wesselaar> For anyone: when i open a ftp link in "places" it opens with firefox, normally it would open with nautilus, can i change this back to the original settings?
[11:00] <Madpilot> rixth, very shiny - what's the native res on that?
[11:00] <Pupeno_> oho! wpa was dead easy :)
[11:00] <kakalto> you can't resize ext3 partitions, can you?
[11:00] <puppet> kakalto: no
[11:00] <fyrestrtr> rixth: hey you have the same icon scheme as I do.
[11:00] <fyrestrtr> rixth: mmmm ... that screen resolution looks tempting :D
[11:00] <kakalto> fyrestrtr: you can't resize ext3 partitions.
[11:00] <kakalto> blargh.
[11:00] <kakalto> send me on a wild goose chase.
[11:00] <kakalto> =/
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> kakalto: I didn't tell you you could, it was someone else.
[11:01] <KJro> Pupeno talking to me ??? :D
[11:01] <kakalto> hmm
[11:01] <kakalto> sorry, fyrestrtr
[11:01] <rixth> Madpilot, 1920x1200
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> its okay.
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> rixth: do you run xgl?
[11:01] <Madpilot> rixth, very nice. Where do you live, so I can come over and stea^^^look at it? ;)
[11:02] <kakalto> DBO, it was you.
[11:02] <rixth> fyrestrtr, I despise xgl hahaha (well, the effects anyway)
[11:02] <rixth> Madpilot, New Zealand =)
[11:02] <ompaul> !xgl
[11:02] <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
[11:02] <blackmabool> i keep getting this: my ISP's username and password login with no error but i can't browse anything . could someome be flooding me? is there any security update for this?
[11:02] <Madpilot> rixth, you're safe, then - that's a bit of a swim
[11:02] <fyrestrtr> rixth: I use it to ooh-aah my windows colleagues.
[11:02] <kakalto> rixth: near auckland? =)
[11:03] <rixth> kakalto, Masterton, near Wellington
[11:03] <kakalto> rixth, eh, nice try =)
[11:03] <axisme> blackmabool, check dns servers
[11:03] <fyrestrtr> rixth: what's the temp. there right now?
[11:03] <blackmabool> axisme: how
[11:03] <inflex> g'day folks - I want to install a package called KTechLab - and they list .deb packages on their site, but I cannot resolve some fundamental KDE lib conflicts
[11:03] <kakalto> eh, the worst temperatures are over
[11:03] <axisme> are you near the machine now?
[11:03] <fyrestrtr> blackmabool: type dig yahoo.com from the terminal and see what you get.
[11:03] <inflex> is there any way to side-step it without breaking -everything-
[11:04] <ubuntu> how can divx files be played in ubuntu?
[11:04] <fyrestrtr> !restrictedformats > ubuntu
[11:04] <inflex> ubuntu: install mplayer
[11:04] <kakalto> inflex: do you have all the repositories enabled?
[11:04] <ompaul> ubuntu, please check the message from ubotu
[11:04] <inflex> kakalto: I have the defaults for the latest Ubuntu install
[11:04] <blackmabool> fyrestrtr:  i just talked to the ISP and i have now net but i don't know if i do something wrong that gets me that error
[11:04] <puppet> ubuntu support divx, mp3 and all, just not out of the box
[11:05] <axisme> blackmabool, open a termina;
[11:05] <axisme> l*
[11:05] <ubuntu> everything except drm
[11:05] <vbgunz> anyone know how when I launch gnome-terminal to get it to show up on all desktops?
[11:05] <kakalto> inflex: well, in synaptic, see if you can "manage repositories", and enable all - main, restricted, universe, and multiverse.
[11:05] <axisme> type in ping www.google.com
[11:05] <inflex> kakalto: okay, thanks, I'll try that - I appreciate your assistance.
[11:06] <blackmabool> axisme: when i get that crap i can't ping anyone nor connect through any internet program...gaim, bitcomet, xchat
[11:06] <kakalto> inflex: no problem. hope it helps.
[11:06] <axisme> try pinging an IP address
[11:06] <axisme> like ping 216.239.37.99
[11:06] <blackmabool> axisme:  yeah it just freezes. i have to ctrl-c
[11:06] <axisme> if you can ping IP addresses and not domains, then its DNS servers
[11:07] <blackmabool> axisme: aha ok
[11:07] <axisme> have you already tried pinging an IP address?
[11:07] <blackmabool> yeah it works now
[11:07] <axisme> ok so
[11:07] <axisme> its dns servers
[11:07] <blackmabool> axisme:  well if now i wouldn't have net how could i talk to u?
[11:07] <vbgunz> anyone know how when I launch gnome-terminal to get it to show up on all desktops?
[11:07] <axisme> well if it works why are you here?
[11:08] <blackmabool> axisme: so if it's the dns then it's the osp problem right?
[11:08] <axisme> if it pings the IP address and not the domains, its likely your problem
[11:08] <blackmabool> axisme:  my original question was if there is some security update
[11:08] <kakalto> blackmabool: I think you're thinking of 'ISP' not 'osp'?
[11:09] <axisme> click System, Administratyion, Networking.   Add DNS there, is thats the issue
[11:09] <blackmabool> kakalto: yeah sory typo
[11:09] <kakalto> =)
[11:09] <xice_notebook> anyone know of an easy to use screen scraper?
[11:09] <blackmabool> ;p
[11:09] <axisme> that would seem a more probable cause than someone flooding you...and no update is gonna fix someone flooding you heh
[11:09] <blackmabool> axisme:  so how do i solve the problem?
[11:10] <[1] Nickay> ubuntu: I am try to edit xorg.conf but the file is empty!!!!!! There is any other way to change the sceen resolution from console?
[11:10] <axisme> Click System, Click Administration, Click Networking, click DNS, Enter your ISPs DNS servers in there.
[11:11] <stefg> [1] Nickay: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:11] <kakalto> axisme: that assumes he has his ISP's DNS server IPs.
[11:11] <blackmabool> axisme: right thanx
[11:11] <rixth> fyrestrtr, my other fave. thing: http://i6.tinypic.com/1zvfvr7.jpg it has a really big range on heights and you can twist the monitor about 70 degrees left or right (also, you can turn it so it is portrait)
[11:11] <axisme> thats true heh
[11:11] <axisme> just use anyones :-P
[11:11] <kakalto> hopefully he does =)
[11:11] <kakalto> lol
[11:11] <mvhenten> Hello, is there a way to 'mount' smb shares from the gui?
[11:14] <[1] Nickay> thanks stefg
[11:14] <squee> Hey, my Ubuntu 6.06 when shutting down wont auto power off. The hard drives go down but the fans and screen are still working. Any ideas?
[11:17] <stefg> squee: old box? ACPI trouble? (see dmesg to find out)... bott-parameters 'acpi off apm=power_off' might help
[11:17] <squee> stefg very old...P3 im not very good, how can i do that?
[11:17] <kakalto> squee, that's hardly 'very' old ;) I'm running a p2 :P
[11:18] <squee> kakalto that should be in a museum on display in the cave man section.. :-)
[11:18] <kakalto> squee: on the contrary, I also have a p1 and a 486 lying around :-)
[11:19] <stefg> squee: The problem is that your mobo does not support the ACPI commands to shut down. To use APM (what was used before ACPI established) edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add acpi=off apm=power_off at the line where it says 'kernel .... quiet splash'
[11:19] <squee> kakalto ha, well i got this PC for free. It was being thrown out.
[11:20] <kakalto> squee: same with the p3 I have, lol
[11:20] <Minty> anyone know a program simaler to ISQL to do SQL requettes that will run in gnome and not terminal ?

[11:23] <Seveas> any interesting problems today or just the regular mess?
[11:23] <vds> anyone using ubuntu with vserver ?
[11:23] <kakalto> shrikant_: yep, english =)
[11:23] <MenZa> Seveas: usual, I suppose.
[11:23] <shrikant_> i cudnt setup xgl :(
[11:23] <ubuntu> what is vserver?
[11:23] <Minty> its hot
[11:24] <Seveas> !xgl > shrikant_

[11:24] <squee> stefg: Ive been looking at the list and the paragraphs seem to be repeated. go i copy that under all the lines?
[11:25] <stefg> Not _under_ all lines /in/ the lines... only the sections where it says title ubuntu ....
[11:26] <stefg> squee: be aware you'll got to have superuser privs to sve it
[11:26] <stefg> *save*
[11:26] <kakalto> squee: be careful with it, too. it's your boot stuff.
[11:26] <stefg> ^^^^^
[11:26] <squee> stefg kakalto will do
[11:27] <ubuntu> what is vserver?

[11:28] <natezman> *** Embedded video in MPlayer in Firefox is failing.  Any ideas??? ***
[11:29] <Stroganoff> omg debian server hacked
[11:29] <Stroganoff> there are 30 root exploits for kernel 2.6
[11:29] <rambo3> natezman, uninstall it and use automatix
[11:29] <kakalto> Stroganoff: you don't really specify a version there
[11:29] <rambo3> Stroganoff, link
[11:30] <natezman> rambo3, I used Automatix to install it in the first place... reinstall?
[11:30] <Flannel> natezman: don't use automatix!
[11:30] <stefg> take the debian hack to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[11:30] <Stroganoff> kk
[11:30] <eth42> after resume from suspend-to-disk, there is a modprobe process running, consuming 77% CPU, that I cannot kill (not even with kill -9). what can I do?
[11:30] <natezman> Flannel: what do YOU suggest?
[11:30] <cstrippie> I keep hearing "don't use automatix," yet it works for me everytime.
[11:31] <Flannel> cstrippie: just because it has never blown up for you doesn't make it safe
[11:31] <natezman> sctripple: same for me
[11:31] <natezman> flannel: nothing's perfect.
[11:31] <Seveas> Stroganoff, i'd be surprised if it were only 30
[11:31] <Seveas> rambo3, don't advise automatix in here - it breaks systems
[11:31] <azcazandco> anyone here played nexuiz?
[11:31] <rambo3> Flannel, same goes for everything them , dont use tv couse it may blow up on you ?
[11:31] <Stroganoff> hehe
[11:31] <natezman> okay, ranbo3: reinstall?
[11:31] <rambo3> Seveas, ok
[11:32] <cstrippie> Agreed flannel, but one has to start somewhere, and aside from automatix's annoying habit of loading adobe reader when I tell it not to, it seems to do a great job on a clean install.
[11:32] <Flannel> rambo3: it's hardly the same thing.
[11:32] <azcazandco> no way is there a Flannel in here?  Thats what i used to call myself on IRC
[11:32] <Flannel> cstrippie: for you
[11:32] <Seveas> azcazandco, are you sure it's not your second personality?
[11:32] <snoops> I'm looking for a linux pdf reader which allows the two page at once view that adobe pdf reader allows
[11:32] <cstrippie> I have also used easyubuntu, and both work well.
[11:32] <squee> azcazandco   not reallty the best of names... then again im useing Squee!
[11:33] <snoops> since my res is 1920x1200, I always view it as two pages at once
[11:33] <azcazandco> Seveas: I think I laid claim to that too
[11:33] <natezman> snoops: use automatix and get Adobe PDF Reader
[11:33] <cstrippie> Easyubuntu probably better if you're uncomfortable loading vid drivers and have an ATI card
[11:33] <Flannel> natezman: don't recommend automatix here.
[11:33] <Seveas> natezman, do not adivese automatix in here..
[11:33] <snoops> err I don't want to be running any dodgy scripts natezman
[11:33] <natezman> mmk.
[11:33] <azcazandco> anyway...  very odd but not what I came in for
[11:33] <snoops> and I would much prefer to use an opensource application if possible
[11:34] <Seveas> azcazandco, life is full of surprises, better get used to it 
[11:34] <natezman> ! dogs with mice
[11:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about dogs with mice - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[11:34] <azcazandco> My screen keeps fading to dark when I am playing games in ubuntu
[11:34] <azcazandco> anyone got any suggestions
[11:34] <eth42> after resume from suspend-to-disk, there is a modprobe process running, consuming 77% CPU, and I cannot kill it (not even with kill -9). what can I do?
[11:35] <ubuntu> eth42 reboot?
[11:35] <_bbandit> azcazandco,  maybe power settings
[11:35] <Seveas> azcazandco, file a bug on the game and/or set your screensaver/power management timeout to infinite
[11:35] <_bbandit> or screensaver
[11:35] <eth42> ubuntu: yes sure. but I would like to know what the problem is...
[11:35] <azcazandco> cool  will try some of those
[11:35] <eth42> ubuntu: (and rebooting is very much a Windows thing, right?)
[11:35] <_bbandit> i'm guessing power management
[11:35] <azcazandco> could well be my screensaver or something
[11:36] <azcazandco> thanks folks....
[11:36] <_bbandit> check settings at system->power management
[11:36] <_bbandit> sorry, system->preferences->power management

[11:46] <blixtra> snoops: just use evince and select dual under the view menu
[11:47] <fm> I have two computers, one running ubuntu, and one (laptop) under windows XP. They both connect to the internet through a modem that is a router too (freebox). The laptop uses wifi. I set up a samba server on my ubuntu box without problems. But the wifi connection being too slow I'd like to connect my computers via ethernet. Can you give me advice how to do that? Basicly I wanna plug an ethernet cable between the two boxes.. but after?
[11:49] <blixtra> fm: you'll need a crossover cable to connect 2 computer directly but I've not done it myself on ubuntu
[11:49] <fm> ah ok
[11:50] <blixtra> fm: does the router ethernet ports at all?
[11:50] <snoops> perfect blixtra
[11:50] <snoops> thanks
[11:50] <sexcopter8000m> fm, blixtra: i think most ethernet cards now can crossover themselves, so you don't need a special cable, unless both cards are rather old
[11:50] <blixtra> snoops: no prob
[11:51] <sexcopter8000m> (have no idea about setting up samba though)
[11:51] <blixtra> sexcopter8000m: oh, it's been years since I needed to do that. :)
[11:51] <ross> is there a dapper install image that fits onto a small usb disk for network install?
[11:51] <brynk> fm, can't you just plug the laptop into the router?
[11:51] <fm> Oh I know what I'll do : plug the laptop on the router through ethernet, way easyer lol
[11:51] <fm> yes
[11:51] <fm> lol
[11:52] <swadhin> need help for my slow ftp login
[11:52] <blixtra> fm: hince me asking if the router has ethernet ports. ;)
[11:52] <stefg> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[11:52] <swadhin> yango: are you there
[11:53] <yango> yes
[11:53] <yango> 
[11:53] <swadhin> yango: when i connect to my ftp server the prompt comes very slowly
[11:53] <ross> stefg: step 2 is "copy the cd to the flash disk". the flash disk is smaller than a cd
[11:53] <swadhin> yango: but once it is connected it works smoothly
[11:53] <devhen> everytime i run apt-get it runs the vmware player install script... and then returns an error
[11:54] <yango> swadhin, and what do I have to do with that? 8P
[11:54] <swadhin> yango: due to this sometimes it times out
[11:54] <swadhin> yango: do you have any solution
[11:54] <Bonez> hey guys, is there any way to resize an ext3 partition? i recently converted to ubuntu from windows but only allowed myself 7gb... i then filled that up and added a 7gb /home partition, but i want to remove windows completely and make my primary ext3 partition like 20gb.
[11:54] <isete> i installed ubuntu server, added user as prompted - but was never asked to set root password. is there a default one?
[11:54] <Bonez> is there any way i can do that without removing my OS and starting again?
[11:54] <swadhin> yango: :)
[11:54] <Seveas> !root > isete
[11:54] <fm> blixtra : oh crap, actually it has only one eth port, the other one is a USB :/
[11:54] <swadhin> yango: any suggestion
[11:55] <devhen> isete: there is no root password by default. use sudo
[11:55] <yango> swadhin, change the pasv setting in your client
[11:55] <blixtra> Bonez: apt-get install gparted
[11:55] <PanicFo> guys is there any way to test if your ati drivers are working properly?
[11:55] <wizard> isete: the password is the same of the user that you've created
[11:55] <devhen> Module vmnet is not loaded. Please verify that it is loaded before running this script ???
[11:55] <swadhin> yango: thanks a lot i ll do that
[11:55] <isete> when i do sudo <command> it is asking me for a password and when i leave it blank it says "wrong passd"
[11:55] <PanicFo> i mean the fglrxinfo says things are fine but it feels a little sluggish
[11:56] <ross> isete: when you sudo, you enter your own password
[11:56] <devhen> isete: user your normal user name and password
[11:56] <isete> oh
[11:56] <isete> thank you  wizard
[11:56] <blixtra> fm: i got a router I'l lsell you. :P
[11:56] <fyrestrtr> PanicFo: glxinfo | grep direct
[11:56] <isete> thsnk you all
[11:56] <devhen> anyone know how to fix this problem with vmware player where it says module vmnet is not loaded?
[11:56] <Bonez> blixtra, i have gparted but it wont let me do anything unless i unmount the partition first, and you can't unmount a partition that you are booting off, right?
[11:56] <fyrestrtr> PanicFo: if it says 'yes' then they are working fine.
[11:56] <frogzoo> 33updates - today will really suck to be on dialup o.O
[11:57] <PanicFo> it says yes
[11:57] <fyrestrtr> PanicFo: then they are working fine :)
[11:57] <blixtra> Bonez: use a live cd
[11:57] <stefg> Bonez: Although you could resize the partition with gparted, it might be wiser anyway to think up a reasonable partition layout... you can always symlink
[11:57] <PanicFo> one weird thing.. some of the screensavers run like shit now after i installed the drivers
[11:57] <sztanpet> how do i turn on laptop mode?
[11:57] <fyrestrtr> PanicFo: this is a known issue with ati unfortunately.
[11:57] <Bonez> blixtra, so if I use a livecd then I can resize my ext3?
[11:57] <PanicFo> could it be a 2d thing?
[11:57] <PanicFo> ah ok
[11:57] <frogzoo> PanicFo: u just install fglrx? yep, rss-glx are crap, it's a bug
[11:57] <PanicFo> then it isnt just me :)
[11:57] <wizard> how cam I install and set the language files for atlantik?
[11:58] <PanicFo> frog: i think i have it installed
[11:58] <XrekcaH> My Embeded Videos In Firefox Fail  Using Mplayer anyone have any info on this?
[11:58] <PanicFo> i followed the ubuntu tutorial
[11:58] <blixtra> Bonez: I've done it. use knoppix or maybe even the ubuntu live cd
[11:58] <PanicFo> do you know if there are any benchmarking proggies i could try?
[11:58] <frogzoo> PanicFo: you can have either fglrx or rss-glx, just not both
[11:58] <PanicFo> just to see where my gfx card is at
[11:58] <PanicFo> fglrx i think

[11:58] <PanicFo> havent seen that other one mentioned anywhere
[11:59] <blixtra> Bonez: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php lokks good
[11:59] <sexcopter8000m> Bonez, blixtra: i've used that gparted livecd to resize partitions normally in use, it worked a treat :)
[11:59] <PanicFo> i can't decide what game to try now >.< ive tried so often to get gaming to work on linux but ive never gotten this far before
[11:59] <PanicFo> lol
[11:59] <Bonez> blixtra, bingo, exactly what i was looking for. thank you so much.
[11:59] <PanicFo> it might actually work this time!
[12:00] <blixtra> Bonez: mach nix
[12:02] <navidjoon> One of my friends is trying to connect to internet throuh a Windows XP box server that uses ICS. He seems to be able to connect and can ping sites but when sounds like there is a problem with DNS. I was wondering where you can set the DNS for an Ubunut box? What is the conf file?
[12:03] <frogzoo> navidjoon: /etc/resolv.conf   - probly set to the ip of the doze box
[12:03] <devhen> navidjoon: /etc/resolve.conf
[12:03] <Subhuman> navidjoon, thats actually an ipv6 issue
[12:04] <Subhuman> navidjoon, because ubuntu by default tries to ipv6 dns request
[12:04] <Subhuman> !ipv6
[12:04] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[12:04] <fyrestrtr> navidjoon: can he ping the domain names, or just the ip addresses?
[12:04] <Subhuman> switch it off.
[12:04] <devhen> my bad, its indeed /etc/resolv.conf
[12:04] <fourat> hello all
[12:04] <papo> hi
[12:04] <fourat> which repo should i use to get php5.1 ?

[12:05] <papo> is update-grub run automatically after installing a new kernel?
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> papo: yes
[12:05] <papo> fyrestrtr: Hm ok, here it's not :(
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> papo: are you on dapper?
[12:05] <papo> fyrestrtr: yes
[12:05] <fyrestrtr> papo: should be there then.
[12:06] <Az3> Je ne cesse de penser que je ne pense plus  toi.
[12:06] <papo> fyrestrtr: just made a dist-upgrade because of the local root exploit. A new kernel package has been downloaded and installed, but it does not appear in menu.lst
[12:06] <fyrestrtr> !fr
[12:06] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> papo: strange, it works over here.
[12:07] <papo> fyrestrtr: I think the problem is somewhere on my box because I didn't install grub during the install routine. I had breezy on another partition and some time ago, I got rid of it and hat to install grub on dapper
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> papo: there is a wiki page on grub that solves most grubby issues.
[12:07] <wizardraiden> Having a little trouble integrating media plugins into Firefox -- anyone have any ideas?

[12:09] <dpn> How do I open the File browser up so I can create directories in protected areas
[12:09] <blixtra> fyrestrtr: where can i find a list of those commands?
[12:09] <Bonez> i have a 12gb ntfs partition on my PC which has WinXP installed, I want to remove that partition and then resize my existing ext3 partition. what will happen if I remove the NTFS partition, which currently has the boot flag attached to it? how can i make it so my system will still boot up?
[12:09] <fyrestrtr> Bonez: you'll need to recreate the partition, set the boot flag on it, and install grub on it.
[12:09] <XrekcaH> wizardraiden, stop being stupid and leave now you are the same guy that was here earlyer
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> blixtra: commands for what?
[12:10] <Bonez> fyrestrtr, is there some sort of a guide i can follow with doing this?
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> try the grub pages I posted for papo.
[12:10] <Pupeno_> I have to computers where the network wi-fi interface is configured exactly the same, the computers are next to each other, one connects the other doesn't (never gets a DHCP offer). The signal in the one that doesn't connect si good. What I see in iwconfig is that the essid is not set. Any ideas ?
[12:10] <blixtra> fyrestrtr: the !info, !fr etc. commands
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> !msgthebot
[12:10] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots

[12:11] <kintaro> hi guys..how can i enable my sshd?
[12:11] <fyrestrtr> ^ @ blixtra
[12:11] <papo> fyrestrtr: Hm ok, I tried the symlink trick, let's see
[12:11] <fyrestrtr> kintaro: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[12:12] <Gonzo> when i try to mount my usb device which is a SD card reader.... the program just freezes... it doesn't even allow me to ctrl+c
[12:12] <Gonzo> any reason why this would happen?
[12:12] <kintaro> fyrestrtr..thanks..
[12:12] <fyrestrtr> is there a reason you are mounting it manually?
[12:12] <compengi> are there any logs for, when the last restart occured?
[12:12] <Gonzo> because i need to unplug the card at run time...
[12:12] <Gonzo> and usualy... on mac and windows, it says that it can damage the file system,
[12:13] <frogzoo> Bonez: afaik, grub doesn't look at the boot flag, so it's a non issue
[12:13] <Gonzo> i guess also it wasn't mounted... so i though i'd have to do it myself
[12:13] <Gonzo> is it meant to mount automatically?
[12:13] <fyrestrtr> it should mount automatically.
[12:14] <Gonzo> hmmm ok... well it doesn;pt
[12:14] <fyrestrtr> is it a built in reader or a usb one?
[12:14] <blixtra> Bonez: i agree with frogzoo
[12:14] <Gonzo> doesn't
[12:14] <Gonzo> a usb one
[12:14] <Gonzo> where i plug my mini SD in
[12:14] <Gonzo> im pretty sure i got it working once
[12:14] <Bonez> frogzoo, ok thanks. so if i completely remove my primary ntfs partition that contains windows then i should still be able to boot linux?
[12:14] <papo> fyrestrtr: Hm no, it's not working
[12:15] <Bonez> but if not, i can just boot from ubuntu cd and rescue, grub-install /dev/hda3
[12:15] <frogzoo> Bonez: yup, or not - guess  you'll soon know o.O
[12:15] <Bonez> frogzoo, yeah it's risky business, i don't like upsetting things that boot!
[12:15] <Gonzo> i booted the computer without the mini sd inserted...
[12:15] <mrkoje> Can someone give me a hint on a good program to burn mpeg videos to vcd, svcd and dvd format?
[12:15] <Bonez> but i really want the space :)
[12:15] <stefg> Bonez: watch out that your partiton numbering scheme doesn't get messed up. if win was on hda1, then you need at least an empty placeholder partition
[12:16] <Bonez> stefg, orly... hmm, so i can't just boot from /dev/hda3 ?
[12:16] <Gonzo> will reboot just for fun...
[12:16] <frogzoo> Bonez: hmmmzz - that 13gig for doze would store much pr0n ..
[12:16] <Bonez> frogzoo, too right :)
[12:16] <stefg> Bonez: you cann boot from hda3, except tzhat it becomes hda2, when you remove a part in front of it :-)
[12:16] <kintaro> fyrestrtr...i finish installing the openssh-server..then whats next?
[12:17] <mrkoje> anyone?
[12:17] <fourat> anyone know where to get PHP5.1 ?
[12:17] <blixtra> kintaro: that's it... just login form another machine
[12:17] <sysrpl> does anyone here use gtk interface designer?
[12:17] <blixtra> sysrpl: me
[12:18] <sysrpl> can you tell me why the frame class desn't allow you to set it's label?
[12:18] <fyrestrtr> kintaro: nothing, its running.
[12:18] <fyrestrtr> fourat: sudo apt-get install php5
[12:18] <blixtra> sysrpl: let me see...
[12:18] <kintaro> blixtra..no need to put in rc level and no need to start it just like gentoo..just new to ubuntu..ehehe
[12:18] <sysrpl> the designer adds two child controls which i am deleting ... it should be able to set the label on the frame directly
[12:19] <sysrpl> i can set it by changing the xml in a text editor or by setting the label explicitly in code
[12:19] <DaveyJ> is there a DV codec for ubuntu or possibly a transcoder that supports it?
[12:19] <MachineHeD> are there any known issues with networking on an nforce 4 shipset
[12:19] <Ng> DaveyJ: kino supports DV and can export to other formats afaik
[12:19] <DaveyJ> nice thanks
[12:20] <Ng> MachineHeD: some of the nvidia drivers aren't so good, nor are the reverse engineered copies of them (called forcedeth I believe)
[12:20] <blixtra> sysrpl: have you selected the actual label on the frame. that works for me
[12:20] <MachineHeD> where can i get nvidia network drivers
[12:20] <sysrpl> the actual label is a child class i am removing
[12:21] <sysrpl> the frame has a label itself and should need those two child objects
[12:21] <Ng> MachineHeD: I'm not sure if they're available in the repositories, but www.nvidia.com will have them
[12:21] <fyrestrtr> sysrpl: blixtra please, #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:21] <MachineHeD> i just dont know what to do im pulling my hair out and i cant seem to use the internet AT ALL in ubuntu
[12:21] <devhen> MachineHeD: my nvidia nforce 2 network was recognized automatically... which one are u using?
[12:22] <lz1gjd> !xgl
[12:22] <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
[12:22] <MachineHeD> devhen did you have problems setting the internet up
[12:22] <devhen> MachineHeD: nope i didnt. does your ethernet card showup in System > Administration > Networking?
[12:23] <MachineHeD> yeah
[12:23] <fyrestrtr> MachineHeD: then you don't need drivers for it.
[12:23] <papo> fyrestrtr: if the package is being reinstalled, should update-grub be ran as well?
[12:23] <yango> MachineHeD, have you ran sudo dhclient eth0
[12:23] <devhen> hightlight it, click properties, make sure the settings are right
[12:23] <MachineHeD> nope i dont think so
[12:23] <MachineHeD> would that help
[12:23] <fyrestrtr> papo: not sure about that, don't think so as the entry should already be there in menu.lst
[12:23] <yango> MachineHeD, maybe...
[12:24] <papo> fyrestrtr: Hm, ok. I just don't see why it doesen't work... is there anything else to do to install grub but aptitude install grub?
[12:24] <papo> and grub-install
[12:25] <fyrestrtr> papo: no, I don't believe so. What do you mean it doesn't work?
[12:26] <papo> fyrestrtr: well I can remove the entry in menu.lst, remove the kernel, install it again and it's not listed in menu.lst because update-grub is not run from the postinst script
[12:27] <kintaro> hi guys..i want to install flush plugin to my firefox..how will i do it?
[12:27] <axisme> flash plugin?
[12:28] <axisme> see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-f375cba46014e861cd5ec7643bd7c4ef05acff2b
[12:28] <Ulukay> hi
[12:28] <papo> fyrestrtr: I guess there must be a function somewhere which finds out what boot manager is installed, and I think that this function fails to detect grub
[12:29] <Ulukay> i got some serious problems with my senao 2511 wlan card ... i simply cannot get it working (with wpa)
[12:29] <mrkoje> Ulukay, join the club mate
[12:29] <Mempf> any news on Knot 1?
[12:29] <mrkoje> Ulukay, best advice.. get an Orinoco card
[12:29] <kintaro> yes axisme..flashplugin
[12:29] <Ulukay> when i try it with the wlan-ng drivers (prism2_cs) the module is loaded, but no card recognized and no wlan0 device created
[12:30] <Ulukay> that works at least with auditor
[12:32] <rob> so quiet
[12:33] <kholerabbi> should I install wine via the ubuntu dapper repos or the winehq repos?
[12:33] <sztanpet> the one you prefer
[12:34] <kholerabbi> sztanpet: I remmember on breezy at leastthe ubuntu one wasn't fully patched and up to date?
[12:34] <sztanpet> yup
[12:34] <mvhenten> Hello, How would I access a samba drive in ubuntu, so that it can be used by the gimp, or mplayer?
[12:34] <sztanpet> but thats the one for ubuntu :
[12:34] <sztanpet> D
[12:34] <sztanpet> mvhenten mount it
[12:34] <mvhenten> How do I mount it?
[12:35] <kholerabbi> sztabpet: so the dapper ubuntu wine is updated and patched and updates regually?
[12:35] <sztanpet> nop
[12:35] <papo> mvhenten: did you try smbmount?
[12:35] <sztanpet> winehq will be the most up to date
[12:35] <kholerabbi> ok thanks :)
[12:35] <mvhenten> I did 'connect to this server' - now I can see it from bluefish and edit files, but it won't work for some other programs
[12:36] <papo> mvhenten: yes it does only work for programs supporting vfs
[12:36] <mvhenten> is there a way to have it so that all programs can see it?
[12:36] <papo> mvhenten: yes you can use smbmount
[12:36] <Gelbkriegsboot> Hi all!
[12:36] <junkY_san> how do i reload the modules?
[12:37] <mvhenten> papo: is that a commandline thing?
[12:37] <papo> mvhenten: and if that works and you want to have it after every reboot you can put it into /etc/fstab. If you need a password to connect, though, it's better to write an initscript
[12:37] <papo> mvhenten: yes
[12:37] <mvhenten> papo: somebody already suggested that to me
[12:37] <mvhenten> like this:
[12:38] <mvhenten> mount -t smbfs //server/share /mnt
[12:38] <papo> yes that's the same
[12:38] <mvhenten> but then I cannot edit the files easily with nautilus
[12:38] <Gelbkriegsboot> is there sombody who was able to install GlobeSpan Virata UGA-101 ADSL modem to Ubuntu 6.06 LST?
[12:38] <papo> mvhenten: Hm, why not? Are permissions wrong?
[12:38] <devhen> how do i get to wine's "C" drive?
[12:39] <manuelsa97> hola
[12:39] <papo> devhen: ~/.wine/drive_c/
[12:39] <mvhenten> I don't really know :(
[12:39] <mvhenten> I didn't do anything
[12:39] <devhen> thanks papo!
[12:39] <mvhenten> oh, I have to do sudo before the mount command.
[12:39] <manuelsa97> dime  tu  msm
[12:39] <papo> mvhenten: Ok, no prob, I can guide you through it but it will need some commandline stuff
[12:39] <GStubbs43> Hi, can someone quickly help me? I need to know if these packages are safe to remove: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17917 If so, how would I go about removing them? apt-get or synaptic?
[12:40] <manuelsa97> kf
[12:40] <mvhenten> so it is then done by the sudo? so I cannot use it as the normal guy?
[12:40] <fonk> Hi! Can anyone tell me if STR is supportet on 12" g4-powerbooks or is just suspend to disk working?
[12:40] <mvhenten> so if I sudo nautilus it'll work then
[12:40] <Moof> I can't seem to find a package with mod_dav_svn for ubuntu. Any ideas where it might be?
[12:40] <mvhenten> pity it has to go from commandline
[12:40] <papo> mvhenten: You can configure sudo to allow every user to mount it. But you should absolutely not sudo nautilus
[12:40] <HiP_P> !gnomeradio
[12:40] <ubotu> I know nothing about gnomeradio - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:41] <mvhenten> is there a gui way?
[12:41] <Moof> !mod_dav_svn
[12:41] <ubotu> I know nothing about mod_dav_svn - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:41] <papo> mvhenten: are you on a multiuser setup or does it have to work just for you?
[12:41] <papo> mvhenten: maybe there is a gui way but I don't know it
[12:41] <mvhenten> noah, I have more users ( family()
[12:41] <Gelbkriegsboot> crazy chat %) anybody from Russian Federation??
[12:42] <papo> mvhenten: ah, and do you have permissions on the network share?
[12:42] <satempler> mvhenten: yes
[12:42] <papo> mvhenten: like files belonging to different users and stuff like that
[12:42] <Jeeves_> http://gallery.prevented.net/sunbuntupron (SFW)
[12:42] <satempler> mvhenten: just to be shure what you are talking about is mounting as normal users
[12:42] <Moof> does ubuntu have mod_dav_svn anywhere?
[12:43] <papo> satempler: he want to mount it in a way that it's accessible with programs not supporting vfd
[12:43] <papo> vfs
[12:43] <satempler> oh
[12:43] <satempler> what is vfd
[12:44] <satempler> or vfs you meen
[12:44] <papo> yes vfs
[12:44] <satempler> ha got ya
[12:44] <Gelbkriegsboot> virtual file system
[12:44] <Gelbkriegsboot> may be
[12:45] <papo> Gelbkriegsboot: it's the gnome thing that let's you 'mount' ssh/ftp/smb ect. stuff in the userspace
[12:45] <satempler> you would want a users option to be added to the drive in question in the fstab
[12:45] <DaveyJ> blah
[12:45] <mvhenten> satempler, papo: yes we have an elaborate network setup with passwords
[12:46] <Gelbkriegsboot> papo: thx
[12:46] <mvhenten> we work with separate shares/passwords
[12:46] <satempler> this in theory should allow multiple users to use it
[12:46] <papo> mvhenten: and does there exist one share for every user or do you use some complicated transfer stuff? If not it's rather easy, just mount every share for the related user and you're done
[12:46] <papo> uh
[12:46] <mvhenten> noah, we have 'project shares' for every project.
[12:47] <mvhenten> on a busy day I have to switch different projects and passwords a lot
[12:47] <satempler> mvhenten: make every one in a group and have the group id for the project in the fstab
[12:47] <mby> Do You know why can't I use fopen() in php scripts on my machine ? the script seems to be OK
[12:47] <Gelbkriegsboot> mby: coz your ISP restriction
[12:48] <mby> apache is installed on my computer
[12:48] <satempler> mvhenten: what do you need to have
[12:48] <satempler> and what is every one trying to access
[12:48] <Gelbkriegsboot> mby: you should swich it in php.ini
[12:49] <Lynoure> mby: and the user the script is run as has permissions for reading that file?
[12:49] <papo> mvhenten: yep you could do what satempler suggested
[12:49] <mby> ok , Thank U
[12:49] <mvhenten> I'll look into it. in the meanwhile, I'll stick to programs that understand vfs
[12:49] <hayden> how can i setup an imap server that is linked from godaddy?
[12:50] <satempler> man fstab would help you there and the GUI way would be System > Admin > Users and Groups
[12:50] <papo> mvhenten: ok. understanding groups is important anyway
[12:50] <mvhenten> too bad totem media player is not working for 90% of the movies we have ( quicktimes) but bluefish and gimp seem to work well I now see
[12:50] <satempler> for creating a project group
[12:50] <revartj> hello
[12:50] <EricRain> hell*U
[12:50] <papo> mvhenten: maybe it helps to install restriced codecs?
[12:51] <satempler> mvhenten: try and install x264-bin and libquicktime0
[12:51] <Gelbkriegsboot> hayden: ask godaddy ISP why Ubuntu?
[12:51] <revartj> somethig put the screen in black when push the key?????????
[12:51] <mvhenten> yes, but still totem is not, well, you know, *comfortable*
[12:51] <mvhenten> :)
[12:51] <satempler> then try the restricted codecs
[12:51] <mvhenten> maybe one day :)
[12:51] <hayden> Gelbkriegsboot, because that is what i will be installing the imap server to...
[12:51] <satempler> lol
[12:51] <EricRain> ok , is there any way to put ubuntu on G4 ?
[12:51] <satempler> seems like media player clasic to me
[12:51] <mvhenten> only the sun shines for free :)(
[12:51] <satempler> lol
[12:52] <hayden> Gelbkriegsboot, any other smart comments?
[12:52] <satempler> EricRain: yes
[12:52] <Gelbkriegsboot> hayden: no
[12:52] <hayden> good
[12:52] <Gelbkriegsboot> hayden: really it is
[12:52] <EricRain> aaaaaaaaand ? it still bulletproof ?
[12:53] <satempler> EricRain: what apple Apple Powerbook G4 ibook what
[12:53] <satempler> size of the screen helps
[12:53] <EricRain> normal G4 not powerbool or Ibook ... just G4
[12:53] <EricRain> *book
[12:54] <satempler> this should get you started
[12:54] <satempler> http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/apple.html
[12:54] <EricRain> no no no
[12:54] <satempler> get the PPC version of Ubuntu and start from there
[12:54] <fourat> where to get apt-file ?
[12:54] <monomaniacpat> What is a 'modeline' in xorg.conf?
[12:54] <papo> fourat: it's in universe
[12:54] <satempler> EricRain: i know it's laptops but much of the hardware is simmilar
[12:55] <EricRain> NOT a laptop , just G4 , you know  , silver case , transparent handholds ....
[12:55] <satempler> ok
[12:55] <satempler> as I said
[12:55] <EricRain> ok
[12:55] <EricRain> I got it
[12:55] <Moof> hmm, it's in universe
[12:56] <Moof> given it's generated form the same sources as the rest of ubunu's subversion, how come it isn't in main?
[12:56] <satempler> reboot with the PPC version of Ubuntu 6.06 and have your data backed up and have your MacOS disc handy just in case
[12:56] <satempler> not even MacOS is bulitproof
[12:56] <b08y> help : get following : after upgrading today: E: /var/cache/apt/archives/samba_3.0.22-1ubuntu3.1_i386.deb: Unterprozess neues pre-removal Skript gab den Fehlerwert 102 zurck
[12:56] <papo> Moof: I don't think that the source has been altered
[12:56] <Subhuman> Moof, itz not officially supported thats why
[12:56] <satempler> I made it crash sevral times
[12:57] <EricRain> satempler, I didn't understand that laptop thing .... ?

[12:59] <asabil> hi all
[01:00] <asabil> is all dvd iso broken ?
[01:00] <Subhuman> cristiano, you tried using the gui?
[01:00] <Terminus> hoehaver: pastebin.com
[01:00] <hoehaver> thank you
[01:00] <codecaine> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17918
[01:00] <cristiano> Subhuman: yep same error
[01:00] <EricRain> is all dvd iso broken ? :))) lol
[01:00] <asabil> when i try to download it says that it's 2.0G instead of 3.1G
[01:00] <asabil> and checking md5 fails
[01:00] <cristiano> Subhuman: it looks like it is unable to use my italian keyboard and each time it use a us one even if in the xorg.conf file the it keyboard is set!!!
[01:00] <satempler> EricRain: try this out http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=133
[01:01] <EricRain> okz
[01:01] <EricRain> let's see
[01:01] <satempler> nice section on Mac stuff
[01:01] <Subhuman> cristiano, is the it keymap there?
[01:01] <DBO> codecaine, thats your xorg.conf, I need a xorg log
[01:01] <Subhuman> like have you installed it?
[01:01] <asabil> anyone ?
[01:01] <Subhuman> cristiano, might be worth asking in #ubuntu-it , the italian ubuntu channel
[01:01] <Subhuman> !it
[01:01] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[01:01] <EricRain> yeah ! dot in a point ! thanx statetempleor
[01:02] <codecaine> wheres that located
[01:02] <satempler> np
[01:02] <cristiano> Subhuman: yep it worked good until yesterday but suddenly it messed up! how can i check if i have the keymap installed?
[01:02] <papo> cristiano: /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/it, but it looks like it's there. maybe it's corrupted?
[01:03] <cristiano> papo: dunno...how to check it?
[01:03] <cristiano> papo however i get the same error with every kind of map i try to use, so it switches to a default one
[01:03] <papo> cristiano: open it in an editor... on dapper, mine has md5sum of 9044442ae9b045efd5c3e3484537c903
[01:04] <papo> hm ok
[01:04] <Gelbkriegsboot> vimdiff? may be
[01:04] <Gelbkriegsboot> bye averyall, i'l be back
[01:04] <papo> cristiano: what ubuntu version is this?
[01:05] <cristiano> 6.06 dapper drake
[01:05] <mortal> is there a newer version than dapper?
[01:05] <cristiano> oh by the way in the file u told me there is no md5sum O_O
[01:05] <junkY_san> what to link to /usr/src/linux for having proper sources? didn't compile a own cernel after installation
[01:06] <papo> cristiano: no there isn't but you can get it with md5sum <file>
[01:06] <cristiano> ok i check
[01:07] <cristiano> papo the md5sum is the same as urs
[01:08] <papo> cristiano: that means that the files are the same, but since it's failing with every keymap i don't think the file is corrupted anyway
[01:08] <hoehaver> man, when i entered the stuff into the pastebin all it did when i hit enter was download a file onto my computer, its a text file that was empty
[01:08] <cristiano> papo i'm worried from this "Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property" i have reinstalled everything related to xkb...
[01:08] <anders_> hello
[01:08] <papo> cristiano: did you google for the error message?
[01:08] <cristiano> papo i'll do it right now
[01:09] <papo> ok
[01:09] <Yawner> Howdy guys, I got a little problem with the system clock on my Ubuntu machine, If i leave it on for a few hours it will gradually speed up.. Say if I turn it on at 7.00 it will be 7.00 in both real life and on the pc, but by 12.00 real time it will be 12.10.. just a small problem, but rather annoying.. anyone seen anywhere there is a fix for this?
[01:09] <hoehaver> stncronis it with the internet server
[01:09] <hoehaver> cant you do that?
[01:09] <papo> Yawner: is the machine connected wit hthe internet? If yes, install ntpd
[01:09] <hoehaver> syincronise*
[01:09] <anders_> Anyone that is good at java?
[01:09] <hoehaver> what ever, i cant spell
[01:10] <Yawner> papo: aha ok will do
[01:10] <frogzoo> Yawner: enable ntp...
[01:10] <hoehaver> why isnt pastebin working
[01:10] <papo> Yawner: package is ntp-simple or something like that
[01:10] <frogzoo> Yawner: just right click the panel clock - prefs - sync to internet
[01:10] <hoehaver> it just  asks me to download a file, i do. then the text file is empty
[01:10] <hoehaver> whats the deal
[01:11] <AskHL> Blimey! I need help: after attempting to update samba, the update manager reports an error and says that I should run sudo apt-get install -f. Doing so I'm informed that the samba .deb file pre-removal script returned error code 102. I can't use the update manager now because it complains on startup. But I can't resolve the problem either by doing as it advises!
[01:11] <Yawner> papo: doing this :)
[01:11] <Yawner> frogzoo: yeah I figured that, but after the 20th time it gets rather tedious :)
[01:11] <Shinzetsu> Im in need of help, Since I installed a new HDD my PC locks up when the installation begins
[01:12] <Pyrotic> Question, summed up into portions here, so its easier understood.. Wifi, in Ubuntu, Works decent, when I'm next to the router, I get about 50kBps, but my average speed, should be at least 150kBps, and not to mention when I go away from the router, I max out at 2kBps, and sometimes less (sad I know), and I installed the Firmware update and the Driver updat, it helped a teeny bit, but nothing noticable, and also to mention, the net work
[01:12] <Pyrotic> ed incredibly well under windows... any idea?
[01:12] <Yawner> papo: got ntp-simple daemon installed now, thanks alot
[01:12] <papo> Yawner: yw
[01:12] <papo> shimmmy: any error messages?
[01:12] <timbobsteve> Shinzetsu: Have you formated the drive to anything yet? What type of drive is it?
[01:13] <Shinzetsu> Kt? an IDE Drive, I formatted it as FAT32, my friend told it was the best to do before letting the installation format it to Ext3, My other drive ia S-ATA, and theyre both masters of their own channel
[01:13] <fourat> is there any 'amarok' equivalent in gnome ?
[01:13] <Shinzetsu> kt? = it's*
[01:13] <fyrestrtr> fourat: just install amarok, or banshee
[01:13] <timbobsteve> Shinzetsu: hmmm... is the HDD visible in the Live env. ?
[01:14] <Shinzetsu> Yep, Live CD works just fine, but when I try to install it it locks up
[01:14] <Shinzetsu> Ive tried Fedora Core 5 too and it locks up aswell
[01:15] <timbobsteve> Shinzetsu: Try formating it to ext3 before starting the installation. Open a terminal and type "sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sda1". Perhaps it doesn't like Fat32 (the installer that is)
[01:15] <cristiano> papo looks to be an XORG problem
[01:15] <papo> cristiano: Hm
[01:15] <Shinzetsu> I want to install it on my IDE HDD (hdc) not my S-ATA HDD (sda)
[01:16] <timbobsteve> Shinzetsu: Appologies :P I meant hdc1....
[01:16] <Shinzetsu> Thanks! ill try that now
[01:16] <cristiano> papo what can i try now?
[01:17] <timbobsteve> Shinzetsu: perhaps if that doesn't work you can try using cfdisk to remove all partitions and then run the installer... might work even better than formating it to ext3. From my experience the GUI Installer is not very fond of multiple HDD. I just spent an hour or two resorting my own to get the Xubuntu installer to stop hanging.
[01:17] <oskude> hi, anyone got debian running atm ? i would like to know if debian has "#defoptions" in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:18] <teroedni> hello
[01:18] <timbobsteve> teroedni: hi
[01:18] <anders_> xz
[01:18] <papo> cristiano: Hm I'll google for it, maybe I find anything useful
[01:18] <teroedni> does anybody know how to clear out the memory
[01:18] <Pyrotic> Question, summed up into portions here, so its easier understood.. Wifi, in Ubuntu, Works decent, when I'm next to the router, I get about 50kBps, but my average speed, should be at least 150kBps, and not to mention when I go away from the router, I max out at 2kBps, and sometimes less (sad I know), and I installed the Firmware update and the Driver updat, it helped a teeny bit, but nothing noticable, and also to mention, the net work
[01:18] <Pyrotic> ed incredibly well under windows... any idea?
[01:18] <teroedni> Thanks for any help on this
[01:19] <Shinzetsu> Okay, ill try it out, be right back~
[01:19] <Pyrotic> teroedni, what do you mean to "clear" out the memor?
[01:19] <Pyrotic> Memory*
[01:19] <zOap> oskude, I am, on my server. But I can't connect to it. My landlord unplugged me when he went on vacation. And I'm on vacation too... Sorry..
[01:19] <teroedni> flush it so it back to normal right know im have 700mb used
[01:19] <asabil> anyone please ?
[01:19] <timbobsteve> Pyrotic: Forget wireless until it is much further developed in Linux.
[01:19] <asabil> can someone tell me why dvd iso image are only 2GB ?
[01:19] <timbobsteve> teroedni: :P
[01:20] <Pyrotic> teroedni, to clear your memory on your system, just shutdown the computer for about 5 Minutes, and turn it back on.
[01:20] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, not an option.
[01:20] <anders_> how do i activate my mozillafirefox?
[01:20] <papo> cristiano: what version of X are you using?
[01:20] <timbobsteve> teroedni: I figured... hmmm.. I hate wireless + linux. Its the standard response tho... all cards are meant for win.
[01:20] <Pyrotic> anders_, Activate?... you mean run it?
[01:20] <teroedni> Pyrotic; TRue but that is more of an xp way ; i was thinking if it were a command for this
[01:20] <Pyrotic> teroedni, ahh.. sorry...
[01:20] <oskude> zOap, thanx, i got my answer allready
[01:21] <timbobsteve> asabil: they will use the whole DVD once you write them... ISO's can be any size... they don't have to be the EXACT size of a DVD
[01:21] <asabil> timbobsteve, the server says they are 3.1Gb
[01:21] <teroedni> Pyrotic; okay just have to search more than .Thanks for the help:)
[01:21] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, I assume that comment was for me.. but yes, I know, but the question is, the wireless with my desktop computer that was previously on Ubuntu, worked incredibly well, also, it wasn't too far from the router, but.. hmm
[01:21] <asabil> and when i DL them, and ms5sum, it's no good
[01:21] <timbobsteve> teroedni: Right... then something is going wrong during the download. Try another mirror... or check the md5 hash against it
[01:21] <Pyrotic> teroedni, No problem, Sorry I couldn't help further..
[01:22] <asabil> hmmm, maybe epiphany have 2.0Gb limit ?
[01:22] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, that comment meant for me?
[01:22] <timbobsteve> Pyrotic: Are you using a different wireless card? If so then that is probably why the performance is different
[01:23] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, I'm on my laptop currently, and that's where the Wireless sucks, it is a different card, but I don't think replacing it, would fix the issue, do you?
[01:23] <timbobsteve> asabil: I don't think epiphany has a dl size limit.
[01:23] <asabil> timbobsteve, it has :s
[01:23] <asabil> it works with wget
[01:24] <timbobsteve> Pyrotic: It sure would make a BIG difference. Is it PCMCIA or onboard? The best linux wireless support is for PCI desktop cards...
[01:24] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, most likely onboard, due to, it is a laptop.
[01:25] <timbobsteve> asabil: So your saying that epiphany has a size limit and that wget reports the correct 3.something GB filesize?
[01:25] <asabil> yep
[01:25] <asabil> Length: 3,371,372,544 (3.1G) [application/octet-stream] 
[01:25] <cristiano> papo: sry i was afk, i think i'm using the last one...how to check?
[01:25] <asabil> taht's from wget
[01:25] <timbobsteve> Pyrotic: Then honestly, unless the laptop came with linux and has a linux sticker... it probably won't work better than it currently does.
[01:25] <asabil> when using epiphany it stops at 2.0G
[01:25] <papo> cristiano: X -version
[01:25] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, I wish it came with linux.. >.<..
[01:26] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, ...hm...
[01:26] <timbobsteve> asabil: Why not download it all using wget ?
[01:26] <POVaddct> asabil: so epiphany seems to be built without large file support
[01:26] <cristiano> papo: version 7.0.0
[01:26] <papo> hm
[01:26] <timbobsteve> Pyrotic: Linux hardware is the biggest challenge I see in gaining more popularity.
[01:27] <Pyrotic> timbobsteve, that it is.. I guess I'll give up the wifi on the laptop, and continue using my Gentoo box..
[01:27] <mamat> hi, in gentoo i had a command in system tools menu to open a new login screen (gdm) either in full screen (CTRL-F789 to switch) or in a sub-window... how could i get the same thing with my brand new ubuntu?
[01:27] <cristiano> papo the strangest thing is that in my xorg.conf everything is corrent, but X seems not able to load the proper key map
[01:27] <asabil> POVaddct, don't know on ubuntu
[01:27] <asabil> actualy on gentoo it is
[01:27] <timbobsteve> asabil: ..... or at least use "wget -c and try and continue downloading from the chunk you currently have.
[01:27] <asabil> timbobsteve, that's what i am doing
[01:28] <asabil> i removed the 2.0G, i first tought it got corrupted :)
[01:28] <papo> cristiano: And the xkeyboard-config package is up to date, too? What if you comment out the xkb settings of your Xorg.conf and run the command?
[01:28] <timbobsteve> asabil: ahhh well... good luck with the download. Hope do see you in Ubuntu-land soon.
[01:29] <cristiano> papo xkeyboard-config is up to date and i don't have commented lines in Xorg.conf about xkb
[01:29] <Subhuman> mamat, its  in ubuntu but i forgot where :( google "how to take screenshot gdm ubuntu" amd that will explain it
[01:30] <asabil> :)
[01:30] <papo> cristiano: Hm, I don't really know what it could be, then :(
[01:30] <cristiano> papo this is my xorg section about keyboard
[01:30] <cristiano> Section "InputDevice"
[01:30] <cristiano>     Identifier     "Generic Keyboard"

[01:33] <Ng> metatag: is it one you burned yourself?

[01:37] <metatag> Ng, Pyrotic , does it take time.. is there a way to take the packages from the CD I received?
[01:37] <Ng> mikeymike: yeah, I asked the bot to send you information
[01:37] <anders_> Pyrotic: firefox to
[01:37] <mikeymike> one last question... is there a way to make my grub look nicer? :)
[01:37] <mikeymike> :P
[01:37] <Ng> metatag: if you boot into breezy and insert the dapper cd it should offer an upgrade
[01:38] <fdr> ng, yep, thanks... I just wanted to know if there were "the profiler", just like gcc is "the compiler".
[01:38] <mikeymike> Ng yeah i realized it after i saw the extra tabs in gaim :) not used to using gaim for IRC'ing >D
[01:38] <Pyrotic> metatag, I'm not entirely sure, Ng is probably correct.
[01:38] <Pyrotic> metatag, I know the upgrade process can take an hour or so... iirc.
[01:38] <SimzI> Pyrotic, where does it extract the .deb to?!
[01:38] <metatag> Ng, Pyrotic Thanks mates
[01:38] <Shinzetsu> Hey im back
[01:38] <Pyrotic> SimzI, wherever the file is extracted at, unless directed to another place.
[01:39] <mikeymike> Oh and another thing.. whats up with live's root password? how can i su to root with no password?
[01:39] <Pyrotic> SimzI, wherever you "dpkg'd" the file, is where the file remains..
[01:39] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, sudo -i
[01:39] <Shinzetsu> It locks up at Writing Superblocks and Filesystem Accounting Information
[01:39] <mikeymike> thanks pyrotic
[01:39] <mikeymike> brb
[01:39] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, type, "passwd" and set your password
[01:39] <SimzI> Pyrotic, weird it's not there :S
[01:39] <mikeymike> pyrotic thanks again
[01:39] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, np.
[01:39] <mikeymike> brb
[01:39] <Pyrotic> SimzI, Should be, wheres the deb file located?
[01:40] <SimzI> Desktop
[01:40] <Pyrotic> SimzI, so "cd Desktop"
[01:40] <Pyrotic> then go "dpkg -i file.deb"
[01:40] <SimzI> I've done that
[01:40] <Pyrotic> SimzI, just to let you know, "-i" installs it
[01:40] <SimzI> ah
[01:41] <Shinzetsu> Who helped me like 10 mins ago?
[01:41] <Pyrotic> anders_, you still there?
[01:41] <SimzI> Thing is Pyrotic it's a theme in the .deb and it doesn't seem to have installed
[01:41] <Pyrotic> SimzI, Ah.. Hm..
[01:41] <Pyrotic> SimzI, I'm not familiar with the Themes and stuff, sorry.
[01:41] <Pyrotic> SimzI, Try just "dpkg"
[01:41] <SimzI> K thnx anyway
[01:41] <Pyrotic> npl.
[01:41] <Pyrotic> np.*
[01:42] <Pyrotic> anders_, anyways, when your there, let me know, I'll help you with java.
[01:42] <SimzI> Pyrotic, how do I just extract the .deb to a dir I choose?
[01:42] <Shinzetsu> Ah I thought it was tribalfuse =/
[01:42] <Pyrotic> SimzI, I'm not sure, just type "dpkg" and it should list some commands.
[01:43] <iznatoraf> hola jose
[01:43] <anders_> Pyrotic: i got my help, thx :P
[01:43] <Pyrotic> anders_, k.

[01:45] <Shinzetsu> Can someone enlighten me with my problem?
[01:45] <iznatoraf> no hablo english pyrotic
[01:46] <mikeymike> when installing ubuntu it asks you to enter a name that will appear to others on a network is that the host name? usually 'ubuntu' ?

[01:46] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, Most likely.
[01:46] <mikeymike> okay thanks again
[01:47] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, you looking to change it?
[01:47] <Shinzetsu> I think it was name-desktop
[01:47] <iznatoraf> #ubuntu-es
[01:47] <mikeymike> yeah and i changed it to name-linux
[01:47] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, k. just checking, because I know I wanted to change mine not too long ago also :P
[01:47] <mikeymike> pyrotic no im just making sure when i do the grub fix that i dont put something else and have to ask you later how to change it :D
[01:47] <Shinzetsu> Pyrotic can yoi help me with my installing problem?
[01:47] <Shinzetsu> you*
[01:47] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, alright :P
[01:47] <mikeymike> is this the official ubuntu channel?
[01:47] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, Whats the issue?
[01:47] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, yes.
[01:47] <Shinzetsu> Yep
[01:47] <mikeymike> do you guys know ludicallaxinmami?
[01:47] <mikeymike> :)
[01:48] <mikeymike> maybe from the forums more than irc
[01:48] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, Not that I recall, but I'm not much of a regular, just waiting for a response on my issue, whilst helping others.
[01:48] <mikeymike> ah okay
[01:48] <Shinzetsu> Well since I installed a new HDD, the PC locks up when the installation begins, though the Live works fine
[01:48] <mikeymike> well cool im going back to reading this grub howto
[01:48] <mikeymike> thanks
[01:48] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, enjoy & good luck.
[01:48] <mikeymike> im not used to this new linux
[01:48] <mikeymike> lol
[01:49] <mikeymike> last linux i used for a long period of time was slackware 10
[01:49] <mikeymike> this stuff is so confusing now no root account n such
[01:49] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, Ok, So when you try to install Ubuntu, the installation locks up? correct?
[01:49] <Shinzetsu> When the progress bar displays
[01:49] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, there is on every other distro aside from Ubuntu.
[01:49] <Shinzetsu> When it ' begins'  installing
[01:49] <Pyrotic> hm..
[01:50] <mikeymike> pyrotic ah its just so different.. slackware was so simple.. and a pain also haha but i loved it with my awesome windowmaker WM :D
[01:50] <Shinzetsu> Ive tried sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hdc1/
[01:50] <Shinzetsu> but it locks up at Writing Superblocks and Filesystem Accounting Information
[01:50] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, hmm.. I'm not entirely sure..
[01:50] <Shinzetsu> Its weird isnt it
[01:51] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, eh', I prefer Gentoo, with Fluxbox, but, we must discontinue this conversation, all offtopic conversations must go to #ubuntu-offtopic, or we will be kicked.
[01:51] <Shinzetsu> Ive tried Fedora Core 5 also and it locks up too
[01:51] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, hmm.. hdd.. issue.. maybe?
[01:51] <mikeymike> pyrotic :) ok
[01:51] <Shinzetsu> Hmm no clue
[01:51] <Shinzetsu> Thing is
[01:51] <Shinzetsu> I have a 200 GB S-ATA HDD (sda) and a 80 GB IDE HDD (hdc), Theyre both masters of their own channel and they work fine under Windows
[01:51] <cristiano> papo: everything is normal now O________O''
[01:52] <Shinzetsu> (the 80 GB IDE HDD is the new one which I want to install Ubuntu on)
[01:52] <cristiano> papo:i reinstalled everything related to x and xkb and works good now
[01:52] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, where did you recieve the Ubuntu install CD?
[01:52] <papo> cristiano: ok, very nice :)
[01:52] <Shinzetsu> I downloaded it
[01:52] <Shinzetsu> It's the x86-64 DVD
[01:53] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, do you have a 64bit processor?
[01:53] <Shinzetsu> I also tried the Alternate disk and the CD
[01:53] <cristiano> papo: thx for ur help :D time to have lunch now, see ya later, bye!
[01:53] <Shinzetsu> Yes, I have an AMD Athlon 64 3700+
[01:53] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, hmm...
[01:53] <papo> cristiano: cya
[01:53] <Shinzetsu> Looks like something conflicts between Linux disks and the HDD
[01:53] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, this harddrive has worked before?
[01:54] <mikeymike> its crazy my sound worked instantly in ubuntu and i had to install drivers in windows (soundblaster audigy 2 platinum) :D
[01:54] <Shinzetsu> Yes, It was in my old PC, I then used it as extternal USB HDD and ive built it in my current PC
[01:54] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, Ubuntu, has alot of features that is user friendly...
[01:54] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, that are *
[01:54] <mikeymike> :)
[01:55] <mikeymike> so what i would be doing is grub-install /dev/sda1
[01:55] <jonah1980> hi guys i just wondered if mythtv will work on ubuntu 6.06 lts AMD64bit edition? and is it easy to set up. also i have a Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Pro PCI Digital TV Card, will that be ok?
[01:55] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, hmmm... Try windows again, and if it fails there, then it's a hardware issue, if it works, then try linux again, if it fails, then I'd try a new cd, if it still fails, I don't know what ot tell you.. (alot of work, but if you want linux, it's worth it)
[01:55] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, what are you looking to do exactly I may be able to help.
[01:55] <Shinzetsu> Yeah I wanna dualboot on 2 HDD's, I can choose where to boot from in my BiOS
[01:55] <mikeymike> put grub back on my mbr
[01:55] <mikeymike> instead of windows
[01:55] <Pyrotic> Ah..
[01:55] <mikeymike> yah installed windows after linux
[01:55] <Pyrotic> mount the harddrive, chroot and edit the grub file...
[01:56] <mikeymike> thats what i was trying to do but i couldn't su to root lmao
[01:56] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, no "su" in ubuntu live, just sudo it..
[01:56] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, whats the ahrddrive letter?
[01:56] <Pyrotic> harddrive*
[01:56] <mikeymike> letter?
[01:56] <Sh4doxx> hi
[01:56] <mikeymike> ehh
[01:56] <NeoCicak> hello.... just wondering.. i have dual boot with win xp home (ntfs)... is it safe to write file to this partition from ubuntu?
[01:56] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, like "/dev/hda"
[01:56] <mikeymike> in windows its C: lmao
[01:56] <Sh4doxx> http://www.2010-wm-in-deutschland.de.vu/
[01:56] <mikeymike> its /dev/sda1 for boot partition
[01:56] <andi5> can somebody tell me whether evolution filters junk in a default ubuntu setup? i have this "check for junk" menu item, two (bogofilter&spamassassin) plugins, but neither bogofilter nor spamassassin installed.... any hint? thanks in advance

[01:57] <Sh4doxx> y?
[01:57] <Sh4doxx> http://www.2010-wm-in-deutschland.de.vu/
[01:57] <Shinzetsu> Were not blind
[01:57] <mikeymike> pyrotic where do i check what mount points go to what partitions i have forgotten my other partitions :(
[01:57] <mikeymike> i recognize boot because its so small and its the first
[01:57] <Shinzetsu> And its offtopic so go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:57] <mikeymike> but the rest i cant remember
[01:58] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, I'm not for sure...
[01:58] <mikeymike> doh
[01:58] <Shinzetsu> Pyrotic: what is cfdisk used for?
[01:58] <mikeymike> so pyrotic how do i mount the drive?
[01:58] <Shinzetsu> Someone told me to try sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hdc1  and if that didnt work cfdisk
[01:58] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, to write a partition table
[01:58] <Kaja> Partitioning
[01:58] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, so it's sda1 ??
[01:58] <mikeymike> its /dev/sda
[01:59] <mikeymike> sda1 is the boot partition
[01:59] <mikeymike> yup
[01:59] <Pyrotic> mikearthur_, hm. ok. we'll try this..
[01:59] <Shinzetsu> Pyrotic: so I would use the syntax cfdisk /dev/hdc1 ?
[01:59] <mikeymike> well /dev/sda is the actual drive
[01:59] <Pyrotic> woops
[01:59] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, ^
[01:59] <mikeymike> :)
[01:59] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, which one is the /root
[01:59] <mikeymike> thats why i asked how to figure that out cuz i have forgotten haha
[01:59] <Pyrotic> Shinzetsu, Don't quote me on it, but I think so, I don't want to steer you in the wrong diretion...
[02:00] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, when you figure it out do the following...
[02:00] <Pyrotic> sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu
[02:00] <Pyrotic> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ubuntu
[02:00] <Pyrotic> sudo mount -t proc none /mnt/ubuntu/proc
[02:00] <Pyrotic> sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev
[02:00] <jorisslob> I have a problem using the CD-rom drive under Dapper Drake. I can't get music CD to work. The error message is: "Could not open CD device for reading". Data CDs seem to work alright
[02:00] <Pyrotic> sudo chroot /mnt/ubuntu /bin/bash
[02:01] <Shinzetsu> Well I cant lose anything cos the HDD is empty heh, lemme try it
[02:01] <Pyrotic> jorisslob, mount it?
[02:01] <Dr4g> Hi there, hwats a good CD burning util for making bootable CD's from ISO files
[02:01] <mikeymike> pyrotic okey dokey is there more?
[02:01] <mikeymike> where does root partition come in to play
[02:01] <jorisslob> Pyrotic: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17923
[02:02] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, did it chroot?
[02:02] <Shinzetsu> FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive
[02:02] <mikeymike> i ahven't done any of it just yet
[02:02] <Shinzetsu> I think it screwed up when I tried the sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hdc1/
[02:02] <Pyrotic> thats all of it.. then once your chrooted, you can tell me and I'll help you futher.
[02:02] <Pyrotic> further*
[02:02] <mikeymike> pyrotic okay
[02:02] <mikeymike> i will do this now
[02:02] <Dr4g> whats a good CD burning util for making bootable CD's from ISO files
[02:02] <majtekst> i have amd64 box, and i install ubuntu 6.06 64bit version, but I can't run Skype, Firefox plugins...
[02:02] <Shinzetsu> Ill format it to Ext3 with PartitionMagic, brb
[02:02] <eth42> how do I allow more locales? I want to enable en_GB.ISO-8859-1
[02:03] <majtekst> does 32bit version work on AMD 64 box
[02:03] <Shinzetsu> Majtekst: Yes it does
[02:03] <majtekst> what i need to do???
[02:03] <majtekst> it's works, thats great
[02:03] <Kaja> eth42, echo "fi_FI ISO-8859-1" >> /var/lib/locales/supported.d/fi && dpkg-reconfigure locales
[02:03] <Pyrotic> hmm jorisslob either A. your cdrom is screwed, or b. the cd is screwed, or c. I have no idea :P
[02:03] <Kaja> eth42, as root of course =)
[02:04] <eth42> sure :)
[02:04] <majtekst> what with performance, if i install 32bit version on amd 64bit
[02:04] <Kaja> majtekst, won't be much lower...
[02:05] <majtekst> I sow, there is some 32 bit emulator for 64bit ubunut
[02:05] <majtekst> but i read also, Skype doesn't work
[02:05] <jorisslob> Pyrotic: A seems inplausible, since I can open things from a data cd, unless it is broken in a very weird way (but then, computers sometimes break in weird ways)
[02:05] <fourat> what's the equivalent of amarok under gnome ?
[02:05] <majtekst> Kaja: do you suggest me to install 32 bit version?
[02:05] <mikeymike> hey pyrotic
[02:05] <mikeymike> proc doesn't exist
[02:05] <Pyrotic> jorisslob, that is true, Kaja may be able to help you...
[02:05] <mikeymike> after mounting ubuntu from sda1
[02:06] <pitfall> anyone here can help me with the font problem in edgy eft ?
[02:06] <Kaja> majtekst, I'd install 32-bit if I had amd64.
[02:06] <mikeymike> maybe it should just be sda?? because sda1 is only the boot partition /boot is all sda1 is
[02:06] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, try with sda3 or sda2
[02:06] <majtekst> OK, i will install, then
[02:06] <Pyrotic> majtekst, good luck.
[02:07] <Kaja> fourat, rhythmbox I guess =S
[02:07] <majtekst> and what is diference about DVD and CD installation media
[02:07] <mikeymike> so i have to unmount sda1 from /mnt/ubuntu pyrotic?
[02:07] <Pyrotic> majtekst, Personal Preference.
[02:07] <jorisslob> Kaja: I have a problem mounting music CDs under Dapper Drake, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17923 , any idea what might be wrong, because data CDs work normally
[02:07] <aLPHa_LeaK>  bbl
[02:07] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, yes, "umount /mnt/ubuntu" then do it alllll over again, til' :P
[02:07] <mikeymike> okey dokey
[02:07] <wildman> jorisslob, audio CDs are not meant to be mounted at all
[02:08] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, just to make sure your with the program, it's "U"mount, not "UN"mount
[02:08] <Kaja> jorisslob, I have no idea.. I don't use audio CDs =/
[02:08] <mikeymike> i know :)
[02:08] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, ;)
[02:08] <mikeymike> lmao
[02:08] <mikeymike> thats so comedy in gaim
[02:08] <mikeymike> anyway
[02:08] <Cody> I can't kill modprobe, which is hogging 70% cpu usage
[02:08] <majtekst> Pyrotic: i don't understund "Personal Preference"? Does it diference about installation software like OpenOffice and some more additional app on DVD
[02:08] <eth42> I've set my Gnome Terminal to ISO-8859-1 and did export LANG="en_GB.ISO-8859-1" but still typing umlauts results in garbled input
[02:08] <eth42> what else should I do=?
[02:09] <mikeymike> ok i have a question pyrotic
[02:09] <mikeymike> what exactly
[02:09] <mikeymike> is this variable mount
[02:09] <Pyrotic> majtekst, I don't think it has any additional software or applications, I think it's just a Personal Perference, what I mean by that, is if you prefer CD's or DVD's...
[02:09] <jorisslob> wildman: Ok, but I still have the problem that it has "Could not open CD device for reading" when I put the CD in my cd-rom
[02:09] <SimzI> How can I edit audio files properties so that Rythmbox sorts them correctly such as the artist name and track titles??????????/
[02:09] <mikeymike> what are we trying to find here
[02:09] <jrib> SimzI: easytag is one way
[02:09] <sexcopter8000m> SimzI, try a program called "easytag"
[02:09] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, we must mount the harddrive so we can edit the grub and add your stuff to it
[02:10] <SimzI> Thanks
[02:10] <wildman> jorisslob, what happens when you try to play it?
[02:10] <mikeymike> what directory are you trying to mount to /mnt/ubuntu ?
[02:10] <eth42> Simzl: cowbell
[02:10] <majtekst> OK, but why is DVD installation about 3,2 GB and CD is just about 700mn???
[02:10] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, /root iirc.
[02:10] <mikeymike> lol
[02:10] <mikeymike> okay
[02:10] <wildman> jorisslob, audio CDs cannot be 'opened' either, but played.
[02:10] <majtekst> 700mb, sorry
[02:10] <mikeymike> fun times
[02:10] <mikeymike> brb then
[02:10] <wildman> jorisslob, I'm assuming by 'open' you mean to 'see what's inside' ?
[02:10] <Pyrotic> majtekst, not sure.
[02:10] <wildman> jorisslob, if so, that's only possible for data CDs, not for CDDA (or 'audio') ones
[02:11] <mikeymike> found it ;)
[02:11] <sexcopter8000m> majtekst, i think the dvd just happens to have a lot of the packages on it, which otherwise are only available by downloading with apt or synaptic
[02:11] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, good.
[02:11] <jorisslob> wildman: I mean, 'play' actually
[02:11] <majtekst> that's means, I'll have exactly same OS after I install from CD or DVD?
[02:11] <patrick_> anyone any experience with installing proper drivers for Ati Radeon 9250
[02:11] <mikeymike> Pyrotic: what is this line supposed to do sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/ubunu/dev
[02:11] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, join #penguinslair on irc.oftc.net please, I have to get going and my friend eisen will continue helping you with your problem.
[02:11] <mikeymike> oi
[02:12] <mikeymike> how to join new servers with gaim?
[02:12] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, /server irc.oftc.net should work
[02:12] <mikeymike> haha
[02:12] <mikeymike> okay
[02:12] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, I'll wait around til' you get there at least.
[02:12] <mikeymike> ok i got it
[02:12] <mikeymike> thanks alot man
[02:12] <mikeymike> oho k
[02:12] <mikeymike> ok be right there
[02:12] <majtekst> sexcopter800m: I can't find the difference, or list of application on DVD and CD on Ubuntu site
[02:12] <wildman> jorisslob, if I may ask, how are you attempting to play it?
[02:12] <jorisslob> wildman: It's actually a bit more complicated, because I am trying to solve it for a friend (who is IRC phobic)
[02:13] <jorisslob> wildman: So I am trying to ask things as I go along
[02:13] <wildman> jorisslob, ok, no pb :)
[02:13] <wildman> jorisslob, if I may ask, how are you attempting to play it?
[02:13] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, you coming?..
[02:13] <mikeymike> trying
[02:13] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, get on xchat it's much easier.
[02:13] <mikeymike> 6667?
[02:13] <Pyrotic> yea'
[02:14] <Pyrotic> try /join irc.oftc.net
[02:14] <jorisslob> wildman: I am getting the feeling that he hoped it just started playing if he put it in the cd-drive, and instead he got an error
[02:14] <majtekst> will I have problem with some 32bit application on 32bit Ubutu, because I have 64bit AMD box?
[02:14] <jorisslob> wildman: Ah, the CD-player of Gnome just spits back: "Could not open CD device for reading"
[02:14] <mikeymike> is xchat included with live?
[02:14] <patrick_> Hi all, anyone got any experience with installing proper drivers for Ati Radeon 9250?
[02:14] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, should be.
[02:14] <wildman> jorisslob, that only happens when you have one of the desktop's CD players AFAIK (kscd for kubuntu, the gnome cd player for ubuntu...)
[02:14] <mikeymike> do i need a pw or anything of that sort
[02:15] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, nope.
[02:15] <wildman> jorisslob, review the config, maybe it's not pointing to the correct CD-ROM device, and that's all...
[02:15] <mikeymike> connecting takes very long
[02:15] <Bonez> can someone tell me how to mount a .img file? I tried sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.img /mnt but it returns an error
[02:15] <mikeymike> whats xchat's run command
[02:15] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, xchat & exit ???
[02:15] <mikeymike> erm
[02:15] <mikeymike> did i conenct
[02:15] <majtekst> Bonez: what error?
[02:15] <gr8rahul> does anyone know how to get bluetooth headset working without alsa support ??
[02:15] <mikeymike> it says im online
[02:15] <mikeymike> haha
[02:15] <patrick_> xchat-gnome
[02:16] <mikeymike> thank you patrick
[02:16] <patrick_> np
[02:16] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, /server irc.oftc.net
[02:16] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, then, /join #penguinslair
[02:16] <mikeymike> okay
[02:16] <ubuntu> heyyy
[02:16] <ubuntu> what's up
[02:16] <mikeymike> ugh stupid thing it not work :)
[02:16] <mikeymike> its okay pyrotic
[02:16] <mikeymike> i will dredge my way thru this
[02:16] <mikeymike> i can hack the grub conf myself if there's proper documentation in it
[02:17] <Bonez> majtekst, mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop1,
[02:17] <mikeymike> if not i will have to read
[02:17] <patrick_> sudo apt-get intall xchat-gnome
[02:17] <Bonez> missing codepage or other error
[02:17] <Bonez>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[02:17] <Bonez>        dmesg | tail  or so
[02:17] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, just join, I hate leavin' people hangin', eisen is intelligent as all heck.
[02:17] <mikeymike> haha
[02:17] <patrick_> *install
[02:17] <mikeymike> i have to install xchat to do it
[02:17] <Pyrotic> !paste > Bonez
[02:17] <mikeymike> i dont think its on live
[02:17] <sledmouth> Bonez ; what fs is the .img?
[02:17] <Dr4g> whats a good CD burning util for making bootable CD's from ISO files?
[02:17] <Dr4g> -
[02:17] <patrick_> yep its small
[02:17] <patrick_> great to use
[02:17] <Pyrotic> Dr4g, Gnomebaker
[02:17] <sexcopter8000m> majtekst, i can't find actual specific details about what comes on the dvd, but if you install from dvd and then install something through synaptic, it should be able to get it from the dvd rather than have to download it
[02:17] <Bonez> sledmouth, i'm not 100% sure, i just used to mount it with daemon tools under windows, but i am not sure of what filesystem it is
[02:18] <patrick_> K3B
[02:18] <mikeymike> let me load it
[02:18] <patrick_> for burning
[02:18] <mikeymike> ugh
[02:18] <sexcopter8000m> majtekst, personally, i'd just rather download the packages as i need them 
[02:18] <eth42> how do I set the input character encoding of my Gnome Terminal?
[02:18] <Pyrotic> woah sexcopter8000m how did you do that smiley, that caught my eye.
[02:18] <sledmouth> Bonez - type " file filename.img "
[02:18] <papo> how can I mount a filesystem in a way that it's not displayed as mountpoint on the desktop?
[02:18] <gr8rahul> sumbody plz let me know ;(
[02:19] <Bonez> sledmouth, war2bne.img: data
[02:19] <sexcopter8000m> Pyrotic, with xchat it's auto-replace
[02:19] <Pyrotic> sexcopter8000m, auto-rplace??
[02:19] <Pyrotic> replace*
[02:19] <sexcopter8000m> (settings, advanced, auto-replace)
[02:19] <Pyrotic> mikeymike, you gettin' her?
[02:19] <mikeymike> yay iu have xchat
[02:19] <majtekst> Bonez: you should use iso9660 only if your image is on CD
[02:20] <Bonez> majtekst, ok, so what do i use if it's on a hdd?
[02:20] <sledmouth> Bonez , my only guess is that the fs of the img file is not supported by your kernel
[02:20] <majtekst> Bonez: but try witout loop
[02:20] <Bonez> yeah i tried without loop also
[02:20] <wildman> jorisslob, problem solved?
[02:20] <majtekst> Bonez: Create some directory under /mnt
[02:20] <Bonez> mount: war2bne.img is not a block device (maybe try `-o loop'?)
[02:20] <Bonez> ok
[02:20] <mikeymike> going
[02:20] <sledmouth> ...or moun in windows again to determine fs
[02:20] <jorisslob> wildman: Not yet, trying to work with him, but not going too smoothly
[02:21] <majtekst> Bonez: for example test likse that "sudo mkdri /mnt/test"
[02:21] <void^> Bonez: you need to convert ccd or cue/bin images to iso first
[02:21] <wildman> jorisslob, take it easy, and good luck!
[02:21] <jorisslob> wildman: I just tried setting the cdrom readable for all users
[02:21] <Bonez> majtekst: it shows the same error
[02:21] <majtekst> Bonez: after that "mount yourfile.img /mnt/test
[02:21] <Bonez> void^, any way I can do this under linux?
[02:21] <jorisslob> wildman: because I saw that on the internet, that that sometimes causes problems, but no luck yet
[02:21] <wildman> jorisslob, did you check the CD player's config for the correct CD-ROM device?
[02:21] <wildman> jorisslob, permissions shouldn't be a problem...
[02:22] <patrick_> anyone any experience with installing proper drivers for Ati Radeon 9250
[02:22] <CokeNCode> quick question guys, is lynx the best option for a console browser
[02:22] <patrick_> weird problem
[02:22] <Bonez> majtekst, it says i must specify the filesystem type
[02:22] <void^> Bonez: if it's a clonecd image, there's a tool called ccd2iso
[02:22] <majtekst> Bonez: what type of file is on image file?
[02:22] <jorisslob> wildman: I'll ask if he can reach it, first time I asked him, he didn't reply... ohhh... the fun of helping another person remotely
[02:22] <POVaddct> patrick_: this card runs with the normal "radeon" driver from xorg. no need for proprietary fglrx driver.
[02:22] <wildman> jorisslob, hehe ;)
[02:22] <majtekst> Bonez: does it image of CD or what?
[02:23] <Bonez> majtekst, it's an image file of warcraft 2 battlenet edition :)
[02:23] <jorisslob> wildman: Any idea where the config files for the gnome cd player?
[02:23] <southerngrey> I am running a fresh install of the OS and want to move to the AMD-K7-SMP kernel from the 386 default. the K7 runs fine but I lose my wireless connection (AX-111 to linksys switch/router). Wireless still ok on the 386 kernel, everything else works fine on the K7.  Can anyone help
[02:23] <wildman> jorisslob, nope, but I'm sure the CD player's settings are available through some menu...
[02:23] <wildman> jorisslob, don't listen to audio CDs that much here :)
[02:24] <wildman> jorisslob, ~/.gnome2 is the place to start looking for gnome apps configs
[02:24] <sexcopter8000m> jorisslob, you could try tweaking it through the configuration editor
[02:24] <wildman> sexcopter8000m, I'd check the GUI's prefs dialog 1st...
[02:25] <MetaMorfoziS> can i get cedega without paying?
[02:25] <sexcopter8000m> wildman, yeah, of course, but if he's looking for the config files then i guess he can't find it in the GUI
[02:25] <majtekst> Bonez: "mount -t iso9660 yourimage.img /mnt/"
[02:26] <Ng> MetaMorfoziS: you can build it from their CVS tree for free, but it doesn't have quite the same features
[02:26] <wildman> sexcopter8000m, maybe he got to ssh into his friend's machine... ;)
[02:26] <mby> could You tell me what should I set in my apache configuration to make file operations working. I can't create new file using filopen() :(
[02:26] <MetaMorfoziS> Ng what it means?
[02:26] <Bonez> majtekst, it does not work
[02:26] <MetaMorfoziS> important features?
[02:26] <Bonez> majtekst, never mind, ill see if i can mount it on windows and convert it to an iso
[02:26] <Bonez> majtekst, thanks for your help
[02:27] <majtekst> Bonez: sorry...
[02:27] <wildman> gotta go now
[02:27] <wildman> cya
[02:27] <sledmouth> mby - i think u need to modify php.ini
[02:27] <jorisslob> wildman: thanks for the help
[02:27] <wildman> jorisslob, my pleasure
[02:27] <MetaMorfoziS> !cegeda
[02:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about cegeda - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <MetaMorfoziS> !cedega
[02:27] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on wine, aimed at running windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega

[02:28] <patrick_> alot of conflicts by the sounds of things
[02:29] <dmsantam> sysrpl, must be a conflict
[02:29] <sysrpl> it's removing gnome
[02:29] <dmsantam> sysrpl, it conflicts with gnome. that's most likely a bug
[02:29] <sysrpl> gnome-vloume-manager
[02:29] <gr8rahul> sysrpl, try apt-get instead of aptitude ... the wrapper may be givin sumproblems
[02:29] <patrick_> do u want rid of gnome
[02:29] <Dasnipa] [> yeah that would be a conflict
[02:29] <sysrpl> no
[02:29] <Dasnipa] [> down with gnome
[02:29] <sysrpl> i dont want to get rid of gnome
[02:29] <patrick_> lol
[02:29] <patrick_> what you running
[02:30] <mby> could You tell me what should I set in my apache configuration to make file operations working. I can't create new file using filopen() :(
[02:30] <sysrpl>  sudo aptitude install xchm
[02:30] <sysrpl> someone else try that please?
[02:30] <patrick_> k

[02:30] <Dasnipa] [> sudo apt-get install xchm
[02:30] <patrick_> it seems to work
[02:31] <patrick_> no probs 3 packages to install
[02:31] <sysrpl> patrik; was that to me?
[02:31] <sysrpl> i just inistalled half of gnome
[02:31] <dmsantam> sysrpl, apt-get install gnome
[02:32] <patrick_> maybe you should install whole thing
[02:32] <patrick_> that could be why its removing it, then reinstall
[02:32] <sysrpl> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[02:32] <patrick_> fully
[02:32] <sysrpl> ?
[02:33] <frogzoo> hot potato - looks like fglrx suspend is working again :)
[02:33] <sysrpl> am i fucked if i reboot?
[02:33] <Ng> !language
[02:33] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:33] <frogzoo> sysrpl: nope - but you could just close synaptic & try again
[02:33] <patrick_> what other window managers u got
[02:33] <sysrpl> i dont have synaptic opened
[02:33] <sysrpl> kde
[02:34] <frogzoo> Ng: me thinks you can't work with IT & NOT know the f*** word o.O
[02:34] <patrick_> you could just reinstall gnome through that after wards
[02:34] <sysrpl> sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop ?
[02:34] <Ng> frogzoo: this isn't a channel for IT people, this is a support channel for Ubuntu users
[02:34] <gr8rahul> does anybody know how to get bluetooth headset working ??
[02:34] <Dr4g> what does aptitude mean ?
[02:34] <patrick_> like apt-get
[02:35] <Dr4g> patrick_: okay
[02:35] <frogzoo> Dr4g: aptitude is front end to APT - advanced package tool
[02:35] <patrick_> only catalogues installs better
[02:35] <patrick_> apparently
[02:35] <Dr4g> frogzoo: is it GUI or something
[02:35] <Dr4g> (front end)

[02:40] <maatttt> yep. am. thanks.
[02:40] <frogzoo> southerngrey: just the usual - find a better driver if possible, or roll your own
[02:40] <gr8rahul> does anybody know how to get bluetooth headset working ??
[02:40] <patrick_> is it enabled in your services
[02:41] <Minty> my cpu frequency scaler says that I can change the frequence of the cpu as I would like to slow it down, whn on battery, I have a AMD Turion running at 2,39GHz and am runner dappe but the 32 bit version
[02:41] <gr8rahul> yup
[02:41] <Dr4g> I'm using Gnomebaker, to burn an .iso file, is there a specific way to burn this to make it bootable? or just standard burn
[02:41] <Minty> have tried sudo cpufreq -g powersave  bitterminal say this is not correct
[02:41] <gr8rahul> bluetooth file transfer takes palce
[02:41] <southerngrey> frogzoo: thnks
[02:42] <Dr4g> Anyone know aswer to my .iso file question
[02:42] <gr8rahul> ???
[02:42] <HotRod> i need assistnce
[02:42] <Minty> correction my cpu frequency scaler says that I can change should read Can't
[02:42] <patrick_>  should be fine make sure iso 9660
[02:42] <patrick_> for baker
[02:42] <Dr4g> hmm /me lookds
[02:42] <SimzI> HotRod, ?
[02:42] <Dr4g> never used this before patrick_
[02:43] <HotRod> im new instaling ubuntu
[02:43] <SimzI> K
[02:43] <patrick_> its normally pretty straight forward
[02:43] <HotRod> is it possible that i could dwnlod games for this systm
[02:43] <patrick_> use defaults
[02:43] <Dr4g> i got it patrick_
[02:43] <Dr4g> Burn image is in menu
[02:43] <patrick_> nice one
[02:43] <gr8rahul> any1 for the bluetooth ???
[02:43] <SimzI> HotRod, most games don't work as standard on Ubuntu, although you can play things such as UT2004 and CS1.6 with Wine but at low framerates
[02:43] <SimzI> Infact I think you can play any game on Wine
[02:44] <SimzI> Wine is like an emulator which installs windows applications on Ubuntu
[02:44] <HotRod> hw about online games
[02:44] <narfmaster> SimzI, about 50% of games
[02:44] <HotRod> oic
[02:44] <SimzI> Ah k narfmaster
[02:44] <SimzI> !wine
[02:44] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[02:44] <narfmaster> depending on how new they are
[02:44] <SimzI> Indeed
[02:44] <HotRod> so linux could support most of the lan games
[02:44] <patrick_> gr8rahul: is it enabled in your services
[02:44] <SimzI> Games should be make with Ubuntu compatibility
[02:44] <gr8rahul> yes patrick
[02:44] <gr8rahul> i even have the bluez stack working ..
[02:44] <SimzI> HotRod, it's got nothing to do with what network you're playing on
[02:45] <jwhayman> is anyone able to help me troubleshoot a samba network connection problem please?
[02:45] <patrick_> what kind of headset is it anyway
[02:45] <HotRod> what do u mean SimzI
[02:45] <fourat> !skype
[02:45] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skype To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[02:45] <gr8rahul> file transfer from phone to machine works
[02:45] <SimzI> I mean, only certain games will play on Ubuntu using Wine
[02:45] <HotRod> ah ok
[02:46] <patrick_> will Neverwinter
[02:46] <HotRod> hw about mp3 file wer i could open it?
[02:46] <narfmaster> HotRod, check with the official page to see if they have a Linux client first
[02:46] <patrick_> cant get it running the bioware way
[02:46] <HotRod> im very sori of ds question coz im so new here
[02:46] <SimzI> HotRod, you need to install the right codecs
[02:46] <SimzI> Are you on your Ubuntu system right now?>
[02:46] <HotRod> yup
[02:46] <fourat> anyone can advise a good WYSWIG html editor for ubuntu ?
[02:46] <SimzI> Open terminal and type, sudo apt-get install gstreamer*
[02:47] <patrick_> easyubuntu will sort da codecs
[02:47] <narfmaster> fourat, Nvu is not bad
[02:47] <patrick_> and will save alot of pain
[02:47] <patrick_> check the wiki for easyubuntu HOTROD
[02:47] <patrick_> its the business

[02:50] <narfmaster> timbobsteve, it's complicated
[02:50] <narfmaster> just trust me on that
[02:50] <patrick_> is there an auto config utility for sorting the stable repos from the debian?testing
[02:50] <Kibou> Dra
[02:51] <timbobsteve> narfmaster: Yes it is... slack = simple.... but Ubuntu is such a nice complete desktop env.
[02:51] <Kibou> Dr4g: buffer underrun
[02:51] <narfmaster> Debian is kind of busy with their servers right at the moment anyway
[02:52] <patrick_> oh

[02:53] <sri_> narfmaster, thank u
[02:53] <elephanthunter> I've installed XP after installing Ubuntu and need the grub menu back. I've tried running the Grub Super CD, which seems to have failed :(. After that, I booted into the latest live CD and tried running grub -> root (hd0,0) -> setup (hd0). Now when I start the computer, it doesn't do anything past booting from the hard disk. I am fairly certain that hd0,0 is the correct hd and partition.
[02:53] <porkpie> frogzoo:hi
[02:53] <narfmaster> porkpie, just get your network going and edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:53] <timbobsteve> frogzoo: You'll be happy to know I have been talked out of it :P
[02:54] <frogzoo> timbobsteve: & there was much rejoicing
[02:54] <sharky-> when partitioning a drive why should i leave free space between partitions?
[02:54] <frogzoo> sharky-: nope - just don't overlap - obviously
[02:55] <elephanthunter> Sharky: If you plan to resize the partition. Otherwise, no.
[02:55] <P1N3R> hi
[02:55] <sharky-> i see
[02:55] <sharky-> thanks
[02:55] <P1N3R> can i get some help?
[02:55] <timbobsteve> aaarrrggg.... apt-get update = "could not lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open" ????
[02:55] <P1N3R> i am new to Ubuntu, and was wondering how i go about installing Apache, PHP and SQL
[02:56] <elephanthunter> do you have synaptic open timbobsteve?
[02:56] <narfmaster> timbobsteve, you need to quit out of anything else using apt
[02:56] <patrick_> close ur terminal too timbob
[02:56] <CHARRONDIERE> Hi all!
[02:57] <timbobsteve> narfmaster: to my knowledge there is nothing using it.... no synaptic running and no other apt commands... :/... synaptic did spit out an error before...
[02:57] <narfmaster> P1N3R, are you using server or desktop?
[02:57] <P1N3R> desktop
[02:57] <porkpie> hmm! is there a package for bacula ?
[02:57] <patrick_> was it to do with the repositories
[02:57] <narfmaster> P1N3R, just run Synaptic and search for stuff there
[02:57] <patrick_> the error
[02:57] <P1N3R> ok thanks narfmaster, i will go and have a play :)
[02:58] <CHARRONDIERE> Can some1 help me get CS4238B sound card working? I tried forums but still get message 'chip detected but control port is not valid' although its the right one :(
[02:58] <PanicFo> YAY! i just got enemy territory to work :D
[02:58] <Adross> with ubuntu's default installed bittorrent app, is it possible for me to turn off my computer and resume the download tomorrow morning?
[02:58] <PanicFo> but the mouse seems to be lagging.. any ideas?
[02:58] <frogzoo> Adross: all bt clients will allow that
[02:58] <narfmaster> timbobsteve, i hate it when that happens (not very often, thank goodness)
[02:58] <patrick_> how did u get ET to work....Wine?
[02:58] <sharky-> P1N3R, if you need explicit instructions like narfmaster gave check this out:
[02:58] <ccooke> frogzoo: um... yes and no.
[02:58] <timbobsteve> narfmaster: fixed it... synaptic had crashed before and left an apt-get update command running .... ouch
[02:58] <sharky-> P1N3R, http://strdoc.net/ubuntu-apache-php-mysql-server/
[02:58] <Adross> frogzoo: how do i resume it then?
[02:58] <PanicFo> nope there's a linux client for it :)
[02:58] <frogzoo> !appdb > patrick_
[02:59] <narfmaster> timbobsteve, that's good to hear
[02:59] <frogzoo> Adross: restart the client - should just pick up
[02:59] <timbobsteve> patrick: ET = enemy territory ?
[02:59] <ccooke> frogzoo: very few make resuming the download very easy
[02:59] <Adross> frogzoo: are you sure, have you tried this?
[02:59] <PanicFo> does anyone have any idea why the mouse is lagging?
[02:59] <PanicFo> its like a half second lag when you press the mousebutton
[02:59] <GStubbs43> \
[02:59] <ketetha_> is human the only theme with a power button on the top right
[02:59] <frogzoo> Adross: I only use azureus, so happy to be corrected
[03:00] <P1N3R> ok, where do i type the commands into ubuntu?
[03:00] <narfmaster> PanicFo, in what application?
[03:00] <Adross> frogzoo: thanks, but i however, would be dismayed to be corrected
[03:00] <Adross> does anyone know for sure?
[03:00] <PanicFo> wolfenstein: enemy territory
[03:00] <PanicFo> linux client
[03:00] <narfmaster> PanicFo, wow no idea about that
[03:00] <patrick_> themes lacking buttons
[03:00] <ara> slow pc?
[03:00] <sharky-> PanicFo, what do you want to know?
[03:00] <patrick_> whats the point in that
[03:01] <patrick_> is it a bug maybe
[03:01] <PanicFo> why my mouse is lagging in the game
[03:01] <mikechml> ouch timbobsteve
[03:01] <PanicFo> it doesnt lag in gnome or anything
[03:01] <dra> Kibou: ?
[03:01] <ara> I having troubles getting on the internet
[03:01] <ketetha_> PIN3R, terminal
[03:01] <P1N3R> to do a sudo apt-get install ssh i'd have to be on the net?
[03:01] <ara> sometime he does find google
[03:01] <timbobsteve> mikechml: tell me about it
[03:01] <ketetha_> my computer is slow right now too
[03:01] <Kibou> dra: nevermind.. type :/
[03:01] <sharky-> PanicFo, does the intro video lag when you startup ET?
[03:01] <PanicFo> nope
[03:01] <jwhayman> I'm having a problem with samba networking - I can see the folders being shared on the windows network by the ubuntu box, but i cant access them, it says Configuration Information could not be read from the Domain Controller
[03:01] <Kibou> dra: typo!!! gah
[03:01] <PanicFo> everything runs crisply
[03:01] <ketetha_> PIN3R, go to applications, accesories, then trmeinal
[03:01] <dra> Kibou: ok ;)
[03:02] <sharky-> PanicFo, what kinda mouse?
[03:02] <PanicFo> moving the mouse is spot on too.. its just when you press the mousebutton that it lags
[03:02] <bic> hey guys. i have a problem. can someone help me ? i mounted my ntfs partition but i can't browse the files i have there. when i look in the folder i mounted my ntfs partition, it's empty. what can i do ?
[03:02] <PanicFo> usb generic thing
[03:02] <Adross> bic: you havn't mounted it correctly
[03:02] <PanicFo> it doesnt lag at all in any other app
[03:02] <Tokyo> so , upside down EPSXE problem , any clues ?
[03:02] <timbobsteve> bic: firstly you can prey you haven't accidentally wiped it :P
[03:02] <Adross> bic: if the folder is empty, the disk mustn't be mounted, or at least not mounted in that folder
[03:02] <P1N3R> ok thanks ketetha_
[03:03] <P1N3R> does the install cd not have the apache packages on it?
[03:03] <ketetha_> pin3R, any timee :)
[03:03] <ketetha_> ughh im so mad
[03:03] <Tokyo> I guess not :((((((((((
[03:03] <ketetha_> i dnt see that power buttom
[03:03] <ketetha_> maybe upon rebooting?
[03:03] <Ribs> P1N3R: The server one does
[03:03] <patrick_> apparently there is already a native linux installer for Enemy Territoy
[03:03] <Ribs> P1N3R: Ask it to install the LAMP server... you get apache, php, mysql
[03:03] <Ribs> \o/
[03:03] <ara> hi, I'cant get the internet working correctly.. I have a wireless connection, and I also get an IP from the router, but the connection fails mostly sometime I can ping to google, sometimes not.. any ideas?
[03:03] <Ribs> all set up and ready to go
[03:03] <P1N3R> ok, do i do apt-get?
[03:04] <ketetha_> PIN3R, yep
[03:04] <patrick_> is it locked down/secured
[03:04] <P1N3R> ok thankyoui very much :)
[03:04] <patrick_> WEP
[03:04] <ketetha_> where  can i download splash screens?
[03:04] <ara> yes wep secured
[03:04] <Tokyo> ara , I guess it's not a software problem
[03:04] <timbobsteve> patrick: of course there is a native installer.... the good folks at id know what linux is :D
[03:04] <patrick_> lol
[03:05] <ara> it's a software problem, I dual boot and in windows it works
[03:05] <patrick_> yeah, although i couldnt get NWN to install with Biowares installer for linux
[03:05] <ketetha_> www.google.com
[03:05] <patrick_> I miss NWN
[03:05] <Tokyo> ok then .... google is useless page  >;)

[03:09] <Tokyo> nope , just I cant find any REALY cool girl that know what means firewall-nat eth0 eth1
[03:09] <Lynoure> ketetha_: * is a wildcard. so *nix  includes e.g. linux and unix.
[03:09] <patrick_> is there any firewalls running
[03:09] <timbobsteve> patrick: I probably won't play it on PC for a while... my rig is too old now.... I was thinking of a 360... but the Wii is gonna get my $$ just for the inovation..
[03:09] <Minty> how can I slow down mu CPU on my laptop ?
[03:09] <ara> duno
[03:09] <hedonistic> I've installed guifications and downloaded a .tar theme package for gaim, can anyone tell me how to run guifications so that I can install the theme?

[03:10] <Lynoure> ketetha_: How long have you been using linux, btw?
[03:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about firefox-plugins - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[03:10] <P1N3R> is there anyway i could get LAMP onto a cd, and then boot it off a cd to install
[03:10] <ismaiel> hello there
[03:10] <Minty> timbobsteve: yes I agrre but when on battery need it to last longer
[03:10] <P1N3R> i cant get internet to the server yet
[03:10] <ketetha_> Lynoure, three days :)
[03:10] <timbobsteve> patrick: good to see there are still some oldskewl gamers around that respect gaming heritage ;)
[03:10] <patrick_> oh yes
[03:10] <Lynoure> ketetha_: That's a good start. :)
[03:10] <ketetha_> Tokyo, dont fret. she'll come. meanwhile stick to the blondes and MAKE them smartt :)
[03:11] <ketetha_> Lynoure, thanks :) and you urselff
[03:11] <patrick_> 360 is hardly ever on, more used for Media Centre
[03:11] <purple> i tried this morning to move a couple of mp3 files onto my mp3 player but u get message that i CANT do that
[03:11] <hedonistic> If you download an applications, is there a reliable way to find out what the terminal command is that will launch that application?
[03:11] <purple> what to do
[03:11] <ketetha_> Lynoure, that was in question form. haha how long have you used linux
[03:11] <purple> ?
[03:11] <Tokyo> ketetha_, I'll better buy some blondy then :)
[03:11] <Lynoure> ketetha_: I don't know how to count it. I've been using one since 1991, I've ran my own box since 2000
[03:11] <timbobsteve> patrick: I would be interested in seeing Xbox live up and running... seems like a nice pre-configured MP arena.... what PC needs.... instead of GameSpy :P
[03:12] <patrick_> yeah exactly
[03:12] <patrick_> bloody GameSpy
[03:12] <patrick_> poor service
[03:12] <patrick_> within 5 mins im online and ready to go in 360
[03:12] <P1N3R> is LAMP downloadable to my pc so i can put it on a cd, then install it off a cd in Ubuntu?
[03:12] <ketetha_> Lynoure, wow. i was born three years AFTER you started using it. holy moley thats awesome! haha i hope to some day say in 2030 oh i've been using linux since 2006. haha :)
[03:12] <Lynoure> ketetha_: but (k)ubuntu only for some months. Debian and other distros before and I'm not giving up on Debian
[03:12] <patrick_> if even that
[03:12] <ketetha_> Tokyo, yepp! get to workk :)
[03:13] <Lynoure> ketetha_: I'm 30 :)
[03:13] <timbobsteve> patrick: wow... I did not expect that... I guess I hear to much M$ hype
[03:13] <porkpie> hmm! I am trying to format a device under ubuntu without much sucess ...  just used fdisk but it didn't do the job
[03:13] <PanicFo> damn.. i cant get access to the console
[03:13] <ketetha_> Lynoure, ahh im 13! hey 13 going on 30. :) haha.
[03:13] <pitfall> cannot find fixed font
[03:13] <patrick_> Xbox Arcade would be ur taste big time
[03:13] <pitfall> anyone can help me ?
[03:13] <pitfall> X wont start
[03:13] <PanicFo> can you pass that command with the executable when you start ET?
[03:13] <CHARRONDIERE> ARGL!! Why does Ubuntu not have command alsaconf??
[03:13] <patrick_> proper retro gaming heaven all in High Definition
[03:13] <ketetha_> Lynoure, when you say ran your own box? does tha tmean you made your own computer by one of those kits or like by bying the parts and putting it together?
[03:14] <bic> guys. i created a folder named C in /media. my ntfs partition is hdb1. then i put sudo mount -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 /dev/hdb1 /media/c in the termainal, but i can't see my files in that folder. why ? what did i do wrong ?
[03:14] <timbobsteve> porkpie: fdisk will only set partitions... u have to use mkfs.* (where * = ext2 ext3 msdos etc)
[03:14] <porkpie> ok
[03:14] <ara> can it possible be that because of dual boot, and the use of the same ip (dhcp) that my ubuntu is blocked from internet?
[03:14] <porkpie> thanks
[03:14] <patrick_> bic: do u get any error messages
[03:14] <bic> no
[03:14] <timbobsteve> patrick: I am looking forward to the N-Arcade on the WIi.... playing Mario 64 will be sweet!
[03:14] <pitfall> a lot of packages are "not downlodable"
[03:14] <patrick_> well what happens
[03:14] <pitfall> whatdoes this mean ?
[03:14] <pitfall> ok
[03:14] <timbobsteve> porkpie: np
[03:14] <pitfall> it means it is notdownlodable
[03:14] <pitfall> but
[03:14] <pitfall> fonts exist on dapper, no ?
[03:15] <fourat> is it possible to add on my laptop (cups) a printer installed on another cups server without having its driver
[03:15] <Lynoure> ketetha_: No, I didn't mean that, though in Finland building your own pc from parts is very common and I've done than longer than running linux. I meant since 2000 I've ran linux on my own computers, and admined linux on other people's computers
[03:15] <patrick_> yeah similar service but probably gonna be better on Wii I'd say
[03:15] <ketetha_> Lynoure, haha sorry im asking alot of questions but do you know alot about splash screens because im looking for some off of gnome-art and they dont really have a designated play for the login box so would they just go somewhere in the certain? and in that case couldnt i just make my own graphic
[03:15] <Lynoure> ketetha_: before that I used linux computers other people were responsible of.
[03:15] <Trae> anyone here use java & smartcvs?
[03:15] <ara> Is there a firewall in ubuntu? how do I turn it of?
[03:15] <timbobsteve> fouratL U think so... i think you just need cups and postscript... not sure tho
[03:16] <timbobsteve> ara: no firewall by default
[03:16] <patrick_> im not sure if there is one on by default
[03:16] <Lynoure> ketetha_: There is some gnome art site, but I cannot remember where. Google should find it. I use the kde version of ubuntu now (kubuntu, that is), so don't really use gnome stuff that much
[03:16] <ketetha_> Lynoure, ooh i see! well my story is my sister did an egineering camp and stuff and they did html webpages there and well i've basically mastered that so i was kind of like bleh thts all you did and then shes like no thats not all and she pulls out her linux cd and i got all excited. did research. haha
[03:16] <Pupeno_> If I do /etc/init.d/network restart my wireless nick comes up, but on booting it doesn't. Any ideas ?
[03:17] <timbobsteve> patrick / ara: no there is no firewall... alot of ppl complained about that... no point tho... its not like it is Windows or anything ;)
[03:17] <patrick_> hhmmm
[03:17] <ketetha_> Lynoure, ahh ok :) thank youu!
[03:17] <Tokyo> that blender3D will kill me ... still upside down >:(((((((( I'w compiled it 7 times already
[03:17] <patrick_> yeah i know
[03:17] <mikechml> iptables for the win

[03:17] <compengi> what does this mean
[03:17] <DBO> !paste
[03:17] <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)
[03:18] <Tokyo> compengi,  it means SPAM
[03:18] <timbobsteve> Pupeno: you have to add that script to startup... not sure how debian does it tho... I am used to BSD-init a'la slackware
[03:18] <skavenge> yes theres a default firewall, iptables, install firestarter for a gui frontend
[03:18] <ketetha_> Lynoure, i wish all my friends could use it but i think they would die. cause like in windows you click and it installs. here its different and you kind of have to help it along and actually install it yourself which is pretty cool if you wanna learn and not be lazy. and its aewsome how the packages and stuff are on the computer so you really don tneed any thing outside of what you have
[03:18] <Pupeno_> timbobsteve: that script is on startup by default, otherwise I would not even have lo.
[03:18] <patrick_> timbobsteve: try "sudo apt-get install firestarter" then run it and see whats goin on with inbound/outbound traffic
[03:19] <compengi> Tokyo, why it's a spam
[03:19] <patrick_> to seee ur nic
[03:19] <P1N3R> can i have just a little bit of help with LAMP?
[03:19] <sri_> I am using 80Gb hard disk iconnect another hard disk to my system.Every time i have to mount it wihile the system starting Is there any cmd to mount perminently??

[03:19] <skavenge> timbobsteve; everythings blocked by default, no open services ..
[03:19] <gnomefreak> compengi: do you have build-essential installed?
[03:19] <compengi> gnomefreak, i don't think so
[03:20] <sri_> I am using 80Gb hard disk iconnect another hard disk to my system.Every time i have to mount it wihile the system starting Is there any cmd to mount perminently??
[03:20] <gnomefreak> compengi: install it please

[03:20] <Tokyo> any clues ?
[03:20] <gnomefreak> compengi: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:20] <timbobsteve> sri: install automount... it will mount everything in /etc/fstab on boot
[03:21] <ketetha_> ok this is probably an easy question to answer. on GAIM i've seen to lost where you can edit your profile. can anyone help me
[03:21] <fourat> is it possible to add on my laptop (cups) a printer installed on another cups server without having its driver
[03:21] <sri_> timbobsteve, i will try it
[03:21] <skavenge> timbobsteve; exactly my point, iptables is running by default, and by default incoming is blocked
[03:21] <compengi> gnomefreak, it says i have it
[03:21] <gnomefreak> compengi: is that all you get when you run make or is there more?
[03:21] <sri_> timbobsteve, HOW TO INSTALL AUTO MOUNT?
[03:22] <timbobsteve> skavenge: incoming :P.... ooops I thought we were discussing outgoing traffic :P no wonder I was confused... sorry if I seemed rude...
[03:22] <compengi> gnomefreak, no this is what i get
[03:22] <krism> ketetha_ : protocol actions

[03:22] <sri_> timbobsteve, How to install auto mount?
[03:22] <timbobsteve> sri: go to a terminal and type "apt-cache search automount".... it will list a package then type "apt-get install PACKAGE_NAME"
[03:23] <sri_> timbobsteve, ok i will check it
[03:23] <Pupeno_> does anybody know at least how can I check what is going on when booting so I can get an error message or something ?
[03:23] <gnomefreak> compengi: do you have the site you got it from?
[03:23] <skavenge> Pupeno_; have you checked dmesg?
[03:23] <Tokyo> Pupeno_,  you mean while bootloader is working ?
[03:23] <compengi> gnomefreak, yes www.sh3lls.com/download.htm
[03:23] <timbobsteve> sri: don't rush for an answer... some ppl are 1/2 around the world and they only just typed an answer when u ask again ;)
[03:23] <snorre> I just installed Ubuntu 6.06 Server from the ISO, but the installer doesn't let me set a root pw?!
[03:24] <porkpie> timbobsteve:do you know the name of the package for bacula server I have tried sudo apt-get install bacula-server but I get E: Invalid operation bacula-server ??
[03:24] <compengi> gnomefreak, sorry http://www.sh3lls.net/download.htm
[03:24] <Pupeno_> Tokyo: what ?
[03:24] <timbobsteve> porlpie: do an "apt-cache search bacula-server" to find the package
[03:25] <tanlaan> hey everyone i have a really simple question *hopefully* how do i go about getting a system monitor on my upper tool bar?
[03:25] <ketetha_> be right back checking out the splash screen
[03:25] <Pupeno_> skavenge: there it says, among other things (and I am not sure it happened when booting): "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ath0: link is not ready". Thanks.
[03:25] <Tokyo> I mean you want to see what's up when bootloader is booting up you'r system ? like to see log later , right ?
[03:25] <timbobsteve> snore: root is accessible through sudo... it is advised u don't even use root for anything... u can get by with sudo and "sudo su"
[03:25] <patrick_> oh sh*t
[03:25] <gnomefreak> compengi: join #ubuntu-offtopic please
[03:25] <patrick_> that system tray problem again
[03:25] <compengi> gnomefreak, i'm in it
[03:25] <Pupeno_> Tokyo: I just want to see any error message that may happen during /etc/init.d/network start
[03:26] <Tokyo> ough , I see
[03:26] <porkpie> timbobsteve:just returned to prompt #
[03:26] <ketetha_> didnt change
[03:27] <timbobsteve> porkpie: then it might not be available... try search google for a .deb file
[03:27] <patrick_> why when i launch app that has icon in sys tray does it load in little tiny window by itself instead of joining all the othe apps in sys tray
[03:27] <porkpie> OK
[03:27] <timbobsteve> porkpie: if all else fails you can compile from source :P
[03:27] <Tokyo> well , easyest way to launch prog's one by one and just check out console ... (of course if you haven't gillion processes :)
[03:27] <bic> can i burn an image cd from a ntfs mounted partition in ubuntu ?
[03:28] <porkpie> timbobsteve:http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/warty/admin/bacula-server
[03:28] <nlindblad> bic: sure, as long as the application burning it only performs reading
[03:28] <timbobsteve> bic: i don't see why not... ntfs is readable in linux
[03:28] <Tokyo> bic , yes
[03:28] <bic> thx
[03:28] <timbobsteve> porkpie: not too sure if it is safe to add warty repo to your sources...
[03:29] <Tokyo> timbobsteve, all partitions is readable for linux :)
[03:29] <tanlaan> anyone know how to get a system monitor in the upper toolbar?
[03:29] <Pupeno_> Anybody knows how to make my wifi nic work at start up ? If I bring it up latter it just works, not at start up. (It was working before I had to use WPA)
[03:29] <timbobsteve> Tokyo: they certainly are... thats one of the joys of *nix
[03:29] <Tokyo> hehe
[03:29] <nlindblad> Pupeno_: using any additional software to get WPA going?
[03:29] <ketetha_> omg
[03:30] <pauliukas> Hello everybody
[03:30] <ketetha_> my computer keeps logging off. going to VT and then making me sign back in. but my stuff is still here
[03:30] <Pupeno_> nlindblad: it depends if you call wpasuplicant, which is installed by default by Ubuntu, additional or not.
[03:30] <snowblink> porkpie, are you sure you typed in apt-get install ...?
[03:30] <pauliukas> How can I seup XGL on Dapper Drake? All the HOW-TOs that I've seen are for the prior version.
[03:30] <Tokyo> ketetha_, sweety , calm down , just install XP >;)
[03:30] <timbobsteve> porkpie: try and find the .deb file... that link was the repo link... u need the .deb file... then you can use dpkg
[03:30] <nlindblad> Pupeno_: I'd call it additional :)
[03:30] <skavenge> tanlaan; in gnome right click on it click 'add to panel' then choose system monitor
[03:30] <void^> Pupeno_: try adding something like `pre-up sleep 2` to your interfaces file
[03:30] <patrick_>  why when i launch application that has icon in sys tray does it load in little tiny window by itself instead of joining all the othe apps in sys tray
[03:30] <snowblink> porkpie, from your error message it looks like you missed install
[03:30] <nlindblad> Pupeno_: so it worked before you started using WPA then?
[03:30] <Pupeno_> void^: ok.
[03:31] <Pupeno_> nlindblad: yes.
[03:31] <Pupeno_> nlindblad: it is working now too, just not on start up.
[03:31] <ketetha_> Tokyo, XP!! as in windows? are you serious? *looks at yur strangely* haha :) i thnk its because im dong splash screens and it wants me to see what im doing
[03:31] <tanlaan> skavenge: thank you :D
[03:31] <pauliukas> XGL.... Anyone at all know that?
[03:31] <skavenge> np
[03:31] <Tokyo>  just kidding , nevermind
[03:31] <timbobsteve> pauliukas: I know OF it :P
[03:31] <snorre> Why are there no option to set the root password in the Ubuntu 6.06 Server installer?
[03:31] <Pupeno_> !xgl
[03:32] <ketetha_> Tokyo, haha it stopped ^.^ thanks!
[03:32] <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
[03:32] <Tokyo> NP
[03:32] <pauliukas> timbobsteve: But let me guess.... Not how to set it up
[03:32] <ketetha_> Tokyo, i scared Lynoure off with my talking :)
[03:32] <Tokyo> I have good carma
[03:32] <nlindblad> Pupeno_: http://www.jeremychapman.info/cms/node/39 might be worth a shot
[03:32] <raptoid> hi everybodyz..
[03:32] <Tokyo> lol
[03:32] <timbobsteve> snorre: because u can set it later use "sudo passwd"
[03:32] <skavenge> snorre; ubuntu uses sudo and a normal account instead, you can enable a root account though
[03:32] <skavenge> !root
[03:32] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:32] <pauliukas> Pupeno_: Thanks. I didn't know there was a different room for that
[03:32] <timbobsteve> pauliukas: my nix box is too old for Xgl
[03:32] <snorre> timbobsteve: thanks
[03:32] <patrick_> Could Someone help me with System tray problem in gnome
[03:33] <ketetha_> Tokyo, haha notice she like NEVER came back :) haha maybe she stepped out or something
[03:33] <porkpie> snowblink:mark@ubuntu1:~$ sudo apt-get install bacula-server
[03:33] <porkpie> Password:

[03:33] <porkpie> E: Couldn't find package bacula-server

[03:39] <porkpie> snowblink: let me check
[03:39] <timbobsteve> snowblink: sorry... I only just realised that your name was snowBLINK and not snowBLIND :P...
[03:39] <DBO> Pupeno_, you are no longer able to edit the bot, it is moderated
[03:39] <Lynoure> ketetha_: It's quite useful, actually
[03:39] <snowblink> timbobsteve, np
[03:40] <ketetha_> Lynoure, haha :) i thought you escaped my talking :)
[03:40] <CarlFK> how do I tell what modules are being used for sound?
[03:40] <timbobsteve> CarlFK: lsmod
[03:40] <porkpie> snowblink: where does it need to go ?
[03:40] <Lynoure> ketetha_: I'm at work and mostly just notice things that highligh, e.g. lines starting with Lynoure:

[03:41] <snowblink> !tell porkpie about universe

[03:48] <stefg> CarlFK: i don't think that this is diver related problem... rather check if you have two soundservers running, or any other oddities
[03:48] <bic> can gnomebaker also burn cd images onto cd-s ?
[03:48] <gnomefreak> bic: yes
[03:48] <bic> thx

[03:49] <mindamp> im trying to use sed 's/"www.test.com/blog"/"www.test.com"/g' to replace some phrases...  i know the quotation is not supposed to be there, but whats teh correct syntax for that? replacing www.test.com/blog with www.test.com ???
[03:49] <stefg> esd
[03:49] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: the one after you log in?
[03:49] <stefg> on gnome, that is
[03:49] <krism> mindamp "\/" for the "/"
[03:50] <mindamp> got it
[03:50] <stefg> !sound > CarlFK
[03:50] <hawkaloogie> mindamp, and . means "any character", so you might want to escape it
[03:50] <CarlFK> ps auxw|grep esd - one line
[03:50] <mindamp> so it would be sed 's/www.test.com\/blog/www.test.com/g' ?
[03:51] <krism> mindamp \. instead of .
[03:51] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, the one wheni login
[03:51] <krism> mindamp (that's called "escaping")
[03:52] <mindamp> k
[03:52] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: looking to change it? or what?
[03:52] <mindamp> thnx
[03:52] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, nevermind its aclle hte login window
[03:52] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, yepp
[03:52] <gnomefreak> the gdm
[03:52] <CarlFK> stefg: I have  no  system -> prefrences -> multimedia
[03:52] <stefg> CarlFK: that's old... hoary.. ignore that
[03:53] <secureboot> anyone know of a website management tool that will do things like automatically generate (and maintain) a set of links to the pages on my site, make rss feeds for pages, etc?
[03:53] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: go to gnome-look.org or art.gnome.org and look to see one you like than download it than got o system>admin>longin windows and change it
[03:53] <CarlFK> stefg I do have  system -> prefrences -> sound, but no ALSA option there
[03:53] <secureboot> something in the FOSS world
[03:53] <studprog> hi all ... currently i'm working on making a network based install (booting via PXE) ... i've got a system running that 1) reads a preseed file and 2) installs a ubuntu dapper minimal system ... my problem is that i can't seem to making it install ubuntu-desktop ...
[03:53] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, ok thankss :)
[03:53] <studprog> after base installation, it installs GRUB  - and thereafter reboots
[03:54] <studprog> does anyone have a good guide for having ubuntu-desktop (and other packages) installed as part of the PXE install process...
[03:54] <CarlFK> stefg: and I have the choice of 3 sound cards under "Default sound card" - chaning it didn't help
[03:55] <CarlFK> studprog: that seems to be broken right now : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[03:57] <abhinay> hi there !
[03:57] <rami-> id like to uninstall my fluxbox
[03:57] <rami-> and install the newest from sources
[03:57] <rami-> is this possible?
[03:57] <abhinay> is there any package similiar to Microsoft Office Project 2003  in ubuntu ?
[03:57] <raptoid> haha
[03:58] <raptoid> microsoft in ubuntu
[03:58] <raptoid> lol
[03:58] <CarlFK> abhinay: yes... lemt me find it
[03:58] <CarlFK> abhinay: (well, I saw it mentioned, I have never used either :)
[03:58] <studprog> CarlFK: I'll take a look - but it seems that i have most of it running - all i need is to either 1) install ubuntu-desktop before reboot - or 2) have the install process continue after rebooting (first time only ;-))
[03:59] <jwhayman> abhinay, isnt there one called Project Management?
[03:59] <abhinay> jwhayman, then wot is the name of the package ?
[03:59] <bic> i downloaded a tar.bz2 package(gnomebaker). how do i install it ?
[04:00] <Minty> have installed powernowd but how do I use it ??
[04:00] <CarlFK> studprog: that sounds about what I got too
[04:01] <Feral_Kid> I am using Dapper and having a slight problem with printing. I am using a HP Photosmart 8250, and it supported. When I tried to log into CUPS to see what the problem is, it asked for a username and password. I tried both my standard login as well as root and still can't get in... Has anyone experience that problem?
[04:02] <CarlFK> jwhayman: abhinay - yeah - Apps, Office, Project Management (may need to enable it in Apps, Add/Remove
[04:02] <jwhayman> abhinay if you go to applications > other > add/remove applications > office > scroll down to the bottom its there, the package is also called Planner
[04:02] <rami-> id like to uninstall my fluxbox
[04:03] <rami-> and install the newest from sources
[04:03] <rami-> is this possible?
[04:03] <ketetha_> whats the differnece between ubuntu and edubuntu
[04:03] <ketetha_> !edubuntu
[04:03] <ubotu> Edubuntu is an Ubuntu derivative aimed at schools and educational institutions. For more info, see http://www.edubuntu.org
[04:03] <ketetha_> ooh whats some of the features that make it aimed toward school
[04:03] <llama32> i got an old ISA soundblaster... is it likely to work on a modern linux?
[04:04] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: its full of educational programs
[04:04] <teroedni> llama32; Yes
[04:04] <llama32> kickarse
[04:04] <studprog> Hmm ... CarlFK, I noticed that "it doesn't work anymore after making the install CD a Live CD" .... should i use /netboot from e.g. the alternative disc (if exsist) or ? - what would you suggest ...
[04:04] <usuario> hola
[04:04] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, can you still get those programs on ubuntu?
[04:04] <usuario> soy xica
[04:04] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: yes
[04:04] <usuario> de granada
[04:04] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop
[04:05] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, that will come with all programs? thanks
[04:05] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: yes
[04:05] <CarlFK> studprog: I used the alternate-CD, but even that had an issue with wanting the wrong version of something, so I have given up
[04:06] <ZeeDD> hi all
[04:06] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, can i do the same for kubuntu - desktop?
[04:06] <ketetha_> !kubuntu
[04:06] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment. For more info see http://kubuntu.org ; to install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:06] <CarlFK> studprog:  when there are edgy CD images I'll file some more bug reports
[04:06] <ZeeDD> I need some help with my wifi WG511T pcmcia card
[04:06] <P1N3R> hi, i didnt set a root password at install
[04:06] <P1N3R> is this correct?
[04:06] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: yes
[04:06] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, nevermind i'll stick with gnomee :)
[04:07] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: edubuntu is gnome
[04:07] <niekie> P1N3R, yes.

[04:07] <P1N3R> or how do i change it?
[04:07] <snorre> how do I setup X on Ubuntu 6.06 Server?
[04:07] <niekie> P1N3R, there is no default.
[04:07] <ketetha_> gnomefreak, ya i know tht part but kubuntu is just like ubuntu but with KDE so i dont realywanna install it
[04:07] <niekie> P1N3R, root is disabled by default.
[04:07] <P1N3R> ok
[04:07] <niekie> The first user is administrator and has access to sudo
[04:07] <P1N3R> and enabling it?
[04:07] <P1N3R> ahh
[04:07] <P1N3R> ok
[04:07] <P1N3R> thanks
[04:08] <gnomefreak> ketetha_: ok
[04:08] <niekie> To get to a root shell, you could use sudo -i

[04:11] <bic> what does this mean ?
[04:11] <jrib> rami-: how did you install it?
[04:11] <ploum> Must I wait or must I install in text-only mode ? Is text-only mode available on the main CD ?
[04:11] <jrib> !compile > bic
[04:11] <rami-> jrib apt-get install
[04:11] <rami-> and now i wanna remove it
[04:11] <rami-> and install newer
[04:11] <rami-> from sources
[04:11] <jrib> rami-: apt-get remove fluxbox
[04:11] <rami-> jrib is that enough?
[04:11] <sri_> i lost my root password;any one help how to recover it?
[04:11] <rami-> dont i need to --purge
[04:12] <rami-> so it will be completely gone
[04:12] <CarlFK> rami-: your best bet is to build a new .deb from the source, then apt-get will take care of updateing
[04:12] <ploum> rami-: no
[04:12] <jrib> rami-: you can purge if you want to get rid of config files
[04:12] <rami-> all conf files
[04:12] <niekie> sri_, there is no root password in Ubuntu by default...
[04:12] <ploum> it's only for conf files
[04:12] <bic> jrib, i don't understand....i'm new to linux
[04:12] <rami-> CarlFK thats stupides thing to do
[04:12] <rami-> it will brake apt
[04:12] <sri_> niekie, I set the password  but i forgot it
[04:12] <CarlFK> rami-: um.. using apt will not break apt - thats the point of using apt
[04:12] <jrib> bic: check your private messages for information about compiling, but why are you compiling?
[04:13] <niekie> sri_, use sudo to change the password again then?
[04:13] <rami-> dude
[04:13] <rami-> if you make ur own packet
[04:13] <rami-> it WILL brake apt
[04:13] <rami-> trust me i've been there too many times
[04:13] <sri_> niekie, i am not in the root account
[04:13] <CarlFK> rami-: what is a packet?
[04:13] <rami-> apt is delicate
[04:13] <niekie> sri_, what do you mean by that?
[04:13] <rami-> its like glass
[04:13] <niekie> Do you have a account that can still do sudo?
[04:13] <bic> oh, thx jrib. well, i donwloaded gnomebaker and it's tar.bz2 package. i read the notes there and it said to run ./config
[04:13] <CarlFK> rami-: then you aren't doing it right :)
[04:13] <snowblink> shadewind, .profile
[04:14] <sri_> niekie, in the terminal i am in user mode
[04:14] <rami-> apt-get --purge remove fluxbox
[04:14] <rami-> is that ok?
[04:14] <jrib> bic: ah you don't need to compile gnomebaker, use synaptic or add/remove programs.  Do you know about those?
[04:14] <sri_> niekie,
[04:14] <rami-> will it brake anything?
[04:14] <rami-> unrepairable
[04:14] <jrib> !info gnomebaker
[04:14] <ubotu> gnomebaker: application for CD/DVD creation in the GNOME desktop. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 862 kB, installed size 2640 kB
[04:14] <bic> no, jrib :(
[04:14] <niekie> sri_, but can you still use sudo?
[04:14] <rami-> jrib can i use apt-get --purge remove fluxbox
[04:14] <jrib> rami-: sure
[04:14] <rami-> and it wont brake whole apt?
[04:14] <jrib> !synaptic > bic
[04:14] <CarlFK> jrib: have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BuildingWineFromSource  you can decide what to do
[04:14] <rami-> it will only remove the packet fluxbox
[04:15] <rami-> i also need to remove addons
[04:15] <rami-> :<
[04:15] <sri_> niekie, I can use sudo su but i will not go into root account
[04:15] <junkY_san> how can i create devices from .mdf/.mds image files?
[04:15] <rami-> how do i locate the addon packages?
[04:15] <studprog> CarlFK: unfortunately i can't wait for edgy ... my boss want this handsoff ubuntu deployment done before september 1st (before the students come back to school ..)
[04:15] <CarlFK> or whoever wants to upgrade something ...
[04:15] <niekie> sri_, try sudo -i
[04:15] <jrib> bic: once you learn about synaptic, note that gnomebacker is in the universe repository and you will have to enable that to see gnomebaker in synaptic, I'll have the bot send you that info as well
[04:15] <jrib> !universe > bic
[04:15] <niekie> Enter the password of your user.
[04:15] <niekie> Not the root password.
[04:15] <sri_> niekie, 1m
[04:15] <bic> thx for the info jrib
[04:16] <jrib> CarlFK: yep, I think that was for someone else :)
[04:16] <ZeeDD> I need help please !
[04:16] <CarlFK> studprog: I would try to get the scripts that build the CD and see if you can fix them
[04:16] <jrib> ZeeDD: just ask your question
[04:16] <studprog> CarlFK: ok ... i'll take a look

[04:17] <rami-> you tryed to make me screw things up
[04:17] <CarlFK> studprog: email me if you want any help or find anything
[04:17] <jrib> rami-: ...
[04:17] <rami-> it would have not deleted everything
[04:18] <jrib> rami-: ok
[04:18] <sri_> niekie, it is promting for password
[04:18] <rami-> i hope that it wont brake it
[04:18] <niekie> sri_, enter the password of the user you are now on.
[04:18] <niekie> NOT the root password.
[04:19] <PanicFo> is there any alternative to skype's official client?
[04:19] <rami-> I TOLD YOU

[04:20] <studprog> CarlFK: sure ... - i'll message you my e-mail in a private chat
[04:20] <niekie> rami-, do you have the build essentials installed?
[04:20] <sri_> niekie, i entered my edmin password then it goes into admin root but not in roots account
[04:20] <rami-> niekie no
[04:20] <rami-> how
[04:21] <niekie> Either it was something like build-essential or build-essentials
[04:21] <Arbiter`> rami-, apt-get install build-essential
[04:21] <CarlFK> PanicFo: yes - A VoIP phone that uses open protocols - one comes with ubuntu
[04:21] <rami-> niekie anything else i should have?
[04:21] <rami-> related to compiling software?
[04:21] <niekie> rami-, I don't know, I didn't follow the conversation.
[04:21] <niekie> But you mainly need the build essentials for compiling.
[04:21] <rami-> and gcc
[04:22] <rami-> :D
[04:22] <sri_> niekie, ok i gotta go thanx for the information
[04:22] <skavenge> build-essential is just what it says, essential for build/compiling
[04:22] <Arbiter> it's a metapackage
[04:22] <niekie> Bweh.
[04:22] <CarlFK> build-essential - informational list of build-essential packages
[04:22] <jrib> !compile > rami-
[04:22] <rami-> yay
[04:22] <buggzero> im having a mbr problem,  can anyone assist me in restoring grub?
[04:22] <rami-> buggzero i have some experiense
[04:22] <iqon> when will dapper-backports be started?
[04:22] <Arbiter> iqon, when edgy is released
[04:22] <rami-> buggzero error 22 ?
[04:23] <buggzero> no grub doesnt even load
[04:23] <rami-> oh reinstall it :o
[04:23] <iqon> how do i request that a package in dapper be updated?
[04:23] <rami-> on MBR
[04:23] <buggzero> i got a new harddrive, and set my hd with ubuntu as master
[04:23] <Arbiter> iqon, fill a bugreport
[04:23] <buggzero> and it it didnt like that
[04:23] <iqon> Arbiter: thanks
[04:23] <Arbiter> asking an UVF exception
[04:23] <rami-> buggzero i can help you in private if you want :<
[04:23] <buggzero> sweet
[04:23] <Arbiter> (Upstream Version Freeze)
[04:24] <Arbiter> iqon, or email the package maitainer
[04:24] <Arbiter> (you can see it from synaptic)
[04:24] <rami-> configure: error: Fluxbox requires the X Window System libraries and headers.
[04:24] <rami-> xD
[04:25] <Arbiter> rami-, hehehe install the correct -dev packages
[04:25] <Arbiter> ;)
[04:25] <rami-> Arbiter what are the Correct ones
[04:25] <rami-> how do i know what is X Window System libraries and headers.
[04:25] <rami-> in apt
[04:25] <Arbiter> rami-, wait a moment
[04:25] <rami-> ya ;<
[04:26] <bigfoot1> how do i rename a file in treminal?
[04:26] <jrib> rami-: sudo apt-get build-dep fluxbox
[04:26] <jrib> bigfoot1: mv
[04:26] <skavenge> mv oldname newname
[04:26] <rami-> jrib what is that?
[04:26] <bigfoot1> jrib: skavenge thankss. that command looks like a "move".
[04:26] <rami-> wont work
[04:26] <Arbiter> rami-, are you compiling the 1.0 right?
[04:26] <rami-> yes
[04:26] <rami-> the newest
[04:27] <skavenge> bigfoot1; technically it is but its used as a 'rename' as well
[04:27] <Arbiter> hmm... i think i'll do a package for ubuntu
[04:27] <Arbiter> the version in universe is merged from debian
[04:27] <rami-> universes is 0.9.4
[04:27] <rami-> or something
[04:27] <rami-> and it sux badly
[04:27] <jrib> rami-: installs the build dependencies for the fluxbox in the repos, which are probably similar to what you are compiling
[04:27] <Arbiter> rami-, yeah it was merged from debian sid :p
[04:28] <buggzero> rami- : i get this message root@ubuntu:/# grub-install /dev/hda
[04:28] <buggzero> The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
[04:28] <bigfoot1> why is "rename" function in nautilus greyed out?
[04:28] <Arbiter> rami-, try to install libX11-dev
[04:28] <rami-> that might be it
[04:28] <DaveyJ> i just changed my soundcard.. how would i go about (if possible) having the system auto-detect the hardware?
[04:28] <rami-> buggzero write grub
[04:28] <rami-> and use the grub command line
[04:28] <buggzero> gotcha
[04:29] <rami-> first
[04:29] <jrib> bigfoot1: do you have permission to rename the file?
[04:29] <rami-> root (hd0,0)
[04:29] <rami-> if its the first hd
[04:29] <rami-> thats you wanna install it
[04:29] <rami-> primary master :I
[04:29] <abhinay> how can i set a new splash screen in Gnome ?
[04:30] <bigfoot1> jrib: i think so
[04:30] <bic> jrib, about synaptic and gnomebaker. i read how to use synaptic, but i can't find the gnomebaker package there in the list of other packages
[04:30] <buggzero> abhinay - i can helpt you with that in a second, im getting some help of my own
[04:30] <jrib> bic: did you enable universe?
[04:30] <bigfoot1> jrib: anyway, i went to file properties and put a chekbox on "Write" for 3 levels
[04:30] <Arbiter> rami-, i'm about to build a binary package for fluxbox 1.0
[04:30] <rami-> Arbiter kewl
[04:30] <rami-> will it work?
[04:30] <Shinzetsu> Pyrotic: you still there?
[04:30] <Arbiter> rami-, don't know :>
[04:31] <rami-> im sure it wont
[04:31] <rami-> :-D
[04:31] <Arbiter> :P
[04:31] <rami-> homemade .deb never works
[04:31] <bic> jrib, how do i enable universe ?
[04:31] <jrib> bigfoot1: I believe you need write permission for the directory it is in
[04:31] <jrib> !universe > bic
[04:31] <rami-> and then apt lols to you
[04:31] <rami-> becose you broke the system :D
[04:31] <CarlFK> duh - I do have 2 sound cards. how do I define which one /dev/dsp is connected to ?
 homemade .deb never works <- mine always worked
[04:32] <Arbiter> :p
[04:32] <rami-> mine never did
[04:32] <Arbiter> never broke a system
[04:32] <rami-> i made some with this soft called: alien
[04:32] <abhinay> how to set permissions to allow guest user to use disk devices (windows partitions) ..?
[04:32] <rami-> :D:D
[04:32] <rami-> it never worked
[04:32] <CarlFK> rami-: mine work
[04:32] <jrib> !ntfs > abhinay
[04:32] <Arbiter> i don't use checkinstall, alien or such ugly software
[04:32] <Arbiter> i follow the pure debian way
[04:32] <Arbiter> :D
[04:33] <Arbiter> (e.g. dealing with lots of files :P)
[04:33] <rami-> well im tryin the build-dep
[04:33] <bigfoot1> jrib the directory is -rw-rw-rw- , but still no renaming allowed in nautilus. though i can rename in terminal
[04:33] <rami-> sudo apt-get build-dep fluxbox
[04:33] <buggzero> rami- . after I have setup hd0, how do I add a win drive into the mentu
[04:33] <CarlFK> rami-: do the wine one - it is 'very simple' - even if you don't do the final install step
[04:33] <rami-> from universe source
[04:33] <tempest1> Hi, I'm having problems using vmware-player ... "Module vmnet is not loaded.  Please verify that it is loaded before running this script." When I try and run the vmware-player daemon. I've tried reinstalling vmware-player-kernel-modules and everything altogether from the latest packages. Any ideas?
[04:33] <rami-> WOOWW
[04:33] <rami-> 58 packs
[04:33] <tempest1> I've also enabled multiverse/universe repositories
[04:34] <rami-> :D
[04:34] <jrib> bigfoot1: you are the owner of the file and the directory?
[04:34] <rami-> so fluxbox will need 57 packets
[04:34] <rami-> to work
[04:34] <rami-> thats.... odd
[04:34] <skavenge> to compile
[04:34] <skavenge> not to work
[04:34] <rami-> yea to compile
[04:34] <rami-> :D
[04:34] <rami-> well i guess it wont hurt to have some packs
[04:34] <CarlFK> tempest1: is  "latest packages" what is in the ubuntu repos, or did you find some somewhere else ?
[04:34] <rami-> there we go
[04:34] <tempest1> CarlFK, Ubuntu repos
[04:34] <bigfoot1> jrib: yes i think
[04:35] <bigfoot1> jrib: maybe my nautilus is broken
[04:35] <rami-> you should not use universe source when doing: apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:35] <rami-> you will end up with unstable system :<
[04:35] <jrib> bigfoot1: close it and open it agin, maybe it needs to reread the permissions you changed
[04:35] <rami-> with cool new software!!!
[04:35] <rami-> and prolly broken apt
[04:35] <rami-> that will say ERRO ERRORR
[04:35] <jrib> !enter
[04:35] <CarlFK> tempest1: did you also enable the security repos?  I had vmware-player problems because I only had uinverse, but not the universe security updates
[04:35] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[04:35] <tempest1> CarlFK, yes
[04:35] <rami-> :[
[04:35] <bigfoot1> jrib: ok. thanks. g'nite
[04:36] <durga> 6.06 seems not to know about my soundblaster card in ISA slot...mandriva and xp see it ok...any ideas ?
[04:36] <tempest1> everything is enabled
[04:36] <Hobbsee> rami-: universe to dist-upgrade is fine - just make sure you have ubuntu-desktop installed, and no unofficial repositories
[04:36] <rami-> :(
[04:36] <rami-> take a debian apt-source and upgrade from there then
[04:37] <rami-> that will brake it ;(
[04:37] <rami-> upgrade it with --force
[04:37] <rami-> export LANG=en
[04:38] <Dr4g> Can someone help me to connect to a VNC server with password?
[04:38] <Dr4g> I know the PW, my "vncviewer" client isnt working
[04:38] <rami-> how do i make export that stays over reboot?
[04:38] <DarkLegacy> What are the benefits of running Linux over Windows?
[04:38] <rami-> i hate to write two export commands always
[04:38] <rami-> when i start ubuntu
[04:38] <tempest1> Dr4g, what client are you using?
[04:38] <Dr4g> vncviewer
[04:38] <Dr4g> Hey tempest1 :P
[04:39] <tempest1> what's up :-p
[04:39] <rami-> Dr4g and the server has forwarded port?
[04:39] <Dr4g> oh shit i forgot about that
[04:39] <Dr4g> Thanks
[04:39] <rami-> haha :D
[04:39] <durga> 6.06 seems not to know about my soundblaster card in ISA slot...mandriva and xp see it ok...any ideas ?
[04:39] <Arbiter> rami-, i'm building your fluxbox-1.0rc2-0ubuntu1 package :P
[04:39] <Dr4g> What port does VNC run on ?
[04:39] <elburirenefr> ola
[04:39] <rami-> Dr4g google: PORT LIST
[04:39] <rami-> ;)
[04:39] <Dr4g> comeo n

[04:40] <rami-> Arbiter sure
[04:40] <Arbiter> well
[04:40] <rami-> Arbiter im just not sure do i wanna take ur homemade stuff ;<
[04:40] <rami-> it could do something nasty
[04:40] <Arbiter> :P
[04:40] <rami-> like rm -rf /
[04:40] <rami-> "part of the installing procedure"
[04:40] <Arbiter> rami-, i'll upload my package to REVU
[04:40] <rami-> revu?
[04:40] <skavenge> mom always said dont take candy from strangers..
[04:41] <ketsugi> How can I change the size of the Terminal window so that it always starts up at the same size?
[04:41] <rami-> Arbiter upload it to univeral repo?
[04:41] <ketsugi> RIght now it always starts at the default size
[04:41] <rami-> ;D
[04:41] <rami-> then ill belive ya
[04:41] <tempest1> ketsugi, depends on the terminal :-p
[04:41] <ketsugi> gnome-terminal
[04:41] <rami-> aterm!
[04:41] <FunnyLookinHat> rami-, REVU is the pre-universal repo.   it's the tester repository for motu
[04:41] <Arbiter> skavenge, what do u say? stranges have always the best candies :>
[04:41] <Arbiter> *strangers*
[04:41] <rami-> REVU xD
[04:41] <rami-> !REVU
[04:41] <ubotu> REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU
[04:41] <skavenge> Arbiter; yeah i agree, never listened to mom anyway hah
[04:41] <rami-> :-D
[04:42] <rami-> Arbiter well when ur ready
[04:42] <tempest1> ketsugi, do you usually click a certain button to open it?
[04:42] <bic> jrib, i need to edit sources.list to enable universe. ok. the file states: uncomment the following two lines to add software from the universe. how do i do that ?
[04:42] <rami-> tell me howto get it
[04:42] <tempest1> just add a command line argument to the launcher for the geometry
[04:42] <ketsugi> tempest1: I have a launcher in my gnome-panel, yeah
[04:42] <Arbiter> rami-, wait.. i'll test it on my local machine first
[04:42] <ketsugi> oh okay
[04:42] <rami-> Arbiter ok :<
[04:42] <jrib> bic: you can also use the gui instructions if you prefer, do you see them?
[04:42] <rami-> Arbiter i already run the MAKE command in my compilations ;<
[04:42] <rami-> but not make install yet
[04:42] <Arbiter> :D
[04:42] <rami-> so i bet i can still backup ;<
[04:42] <rami-> and take the .deb
[04:43] <bic> jrib, what am i supposed to see exactly ? (please excuse me, i'm new)
[04:43] <P1N3R> can someone offer any help on installing webmin
[04:43] <Arbiter> ok, i have the .deb

[04:43] <Arbiter> lemme try it
[04:43] <P1N3R> i get into the install
[04:43] <P1N3R> and it asks for the linux i am using
[04:43] <skavenge> !webmin
[04:43] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[04:43] <P1N3R> o
[04:43] <P1N3R> what can i use instead?
[04:43] <jrib> bic: are you here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu ?
[04:44] <ketsugi> thanks, tempest1
[04:44] <ketsugi> that worked

[04:44] <Paladine> anyone know how I get linux colors back in terminal?
[04:44] <JmGV> i have just install ubuntu
[04:44] <rami-> jrib that link isnt so good
[04:44] <bic> jrib, yes
[04:44] <rami-> it actually does not have the repos
[04:44] <rami-> it just tells you howto add them
[04:44] <rami-> and everyone knows howto add sources
[04:44] <JmGV> everything looks fine. but i cant install xserver-glx, what repository must I include in sources.list?
[04:44] <jrib> rami-: which one?
[04:44] <ketsugi> Can anyone help me sign a repo Release file? I'm having some issues.
[04:44] <skavenge> Paladine; alias ls to 'ls --color=auto'
[04:45] <jrib> bic: ok, go to section 3
[04:45] <pike_> Paladine: you have a .bashrc file in your home dir that you can add that to
[04:45] <tempest1> ketsugi, what kind of issues?
[04:45] <Arbiter> rami-, it seems to work
[04:45] <Arbiter> do u want a screenshot? :D
[04:45] <ketsugi> Well
[04:46] <rami-> Arbiter no
[04:46] <ketsugi> I signed the Release file using `gpg -bao Release.gpg Release`
[04:46] <rami-> Arbiter i want the source
[04:46] <ketsugi> and the Release.gpg file looks okay
[04:46] <ketsugi> but when I run a `sudo apt-get update`
[04:46] <ketsugi> I get this error:
[04:46] <rami-> and i dont want it to be ur homecomputers IP-address
[04:46] <rami-> that will make me suspicious
[04:46] <ketsugi> Failed to fetch http://ketsugi.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/Release
[04:46] <ketsugi> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[04:46] <rami-> i dont like apt-getting from someones homecomputer xD
[04:46] <ketsugi> but both the Release and Release.gpg files are there
[04:46] <Arbiter> rami-, u want source package?
[04:46] <CarlFK> rami-: I lost track - what is it you need help with?
[04:46] <ketsugi> and accessible by http
[04:47] <Arbiter> *you
[04:47] <rami-> i already have sources :D
[04:47] <skavenge> its a rootkit hiding in a package, lookout! ;)
[04:47] <rami-> Arbiter i just make:d them
[04:47] <rami-> but now
[04:47] <Arbiter> rami-, you can just wait that my GPG key is added to REVU keyring
[04:47] <rami-> its make install or ur .deb
[04:47] <Arbiter> so i can upload the package
[04:47] <[Ex0r] > will edgy be available as a complete system update ?
[04:47] <rami-> or i can just write: make install
[04:47] <tempest1> ketsugi, isn't it http://ketsugi.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/
[04:48] <rami-> Arbiter is it ok if i compiled the thing with root rights?
[04:48] <Ng> [Ex0r] : it will be just like any other ubuntu release, albeit that it's going to be more bleeding edge
[04:48] <skavenge> [Ex0r] ; im sure, just like dapper was to breezy, etc
[04:48] <rami-> i did make with root account :<
[04:48] <Arbiter> rami-, sure
[04:48] <rami-> and ./configure also
[04:48] <rami-> yay
[04:48] <Arbiter> DCC is ok? :D
[04:48] <[Ex0r] > k
[04:48] <ketsugi> "deb http://ketsugi.com/ubuntu dapper main" is the relevant sources.list entry
[04:48] <rami-> im using windows irc client
[04:48] <rami-> they dont support DCC
[04:49] <skavenge> ??
[04:49] <Arbiter> ow
[04:49] <rami-> like windows would support anything like that :-D
[04:49] <rami-> it just freezes up
[04:49] <ketsugi> um
[04:49] <rami-> xD
[04:49] <[Ex0r] > um... windows doesnt support dcc ?
[04:49] <ketsugi> mIRC's DCC works just fine
[04:49] <skavenge> they make irc  clients without dcc? thats absurd
[04:49] <rami-> no
[04:49] <[Ex0r] > every windows client i've used has
[04:49] <rami-> it says "accepting DCC"
[04:49] <rami-> and stucks there
[04:49] <Arbiter> rami-, i don't know where to place the .deb than :P
[04:49] <rami-> stupid mirc client
[04:49] <rami-> im gonna write; make install now :<
[04:49] <Arbiter> s/than/then/
[04:49] <rami-> lets see what happends
[04:50] <CarlFK> rami-: try to stay on topic - this #channel is pretty noisy as it is
[04:50] <rami-> i hope i can do make remove
[04:50] <rami-> :-D
[04:50] <ketsugi> Any ideas, tempest1?
[04:50] <Arbiter> make uninstall
[04:50] <JmGV> everything looks fine. but i cant install xserver-glx, what repository must I include in sources.list?
[04:50] <oskude> !checkinstall
[04:50] <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
[04:50] <Arbiter> it's more probabile
[04:50] <rami-> yaiks its doing something ;)
[04:50] <rami-> no errors :o
[04:50] <Arbiter> oscarh, ooooh please... checkinstall is shit :p
[04:50] <sharms> !tell JmGV about xgl
[04:50] <Seng> #ubuntu-fr
[04:50] <Arbiter> ops
[04:50] <Arbiter> it was for oskude
[04:50] <JmGV> thanks
[04:51] <Seng> hello everybody how can can i go to #ubuntu-fr ?
[04:51] <oskude> Arbiter, better than afterwards realising that the authors didnt add "make uninstall" ...
[04:51] <Arbiter> /join #ubuntu-fr
[04:51] <skavenge>  /join #ubuntu-fr
[04:51] <Seng> ok thanks
[04:51] <rami-> Arbiter GDM does not detect compiled Fluxbox?
[04:51] <Arbiter> oskude, i prefer making .debs in the debian way :D
[04:51] <bic> jrib, i don't have software properties in my administration tab =\
[04:51] <DarkLegacy> Why is Linux better than Windows?
[04:51] <Arbiter> rami-, don't know
[04:51] <alex__> is there a desktop manager like gnome? i have a 500mHz celeron cpu and my ubuntu gnome pc is very slow. icewm is slow, too!
[04:51] <jrib> bic: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[04:51] <Arbiter> but my deb provides a menu voice for GDM
[04:51] <pike_> alex__: xfce
[04:51] <bic> 5.04
[04:52] <tempest1> ketsugi, you probably need a Contents-i386.gz file to list what archives you ahve
[04:52] <rami-> damn ;<
[04:52] <alex__> how to install it
[04:52] <alex__> ?
[04:52] <rami-> looks like someone has to find the executable
[04:52] <rami-> for fluxbox
[04:52] <pike_> alex__: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[04:52] <jrib> bic: oh, you know current stable is 6.06?
[04:52] <CarlFK> alex__: have you seen xubuntu?
[04:52] <Arbiter> /usr/bin/startfluxbox
[04:52] <alex__> no
[04:52] <CarlFK> alex__: /join #xubuntu?
[04:52] <Arbiter> rami-, create a file called .xinitrc with /usr/bin/startfluxbox in your home
[04:52] <ketsugi> tempest1: I do
[04:52] <ketsugi> it's all there
[04:53] <rami-> Arbiter i dont have such thing
[04:53] <ketsugi> if I remove the .gpg file it works fine
[04:53] <Arbiter> echo "/usr/bin/startfluxbox" > .xinitrc
[04:53] <bic> oh :| didn't know taht to be quite honest. i just got the ubuntu cd from a friend
[04:53] <ketsugi> except for the authentication errors, of course
[04:53] <rami-> Arbiter dont have one
[04:53] <bic> jrib : so what should i do ?
[04:53] <Arbiter> then from the terminal run startx
[04:53] <[Ex0r] > rami-, he said make one
[04:53] <Arbiter> rami-, otherwise
[04:53] <Arbiter> wait a moment
[04:53] <[Ex0r] > gotta go get in the shower, bbl
[04:53] <jrib> bic: well you can enable universe by going to synaptic's menu > edit > repositories
[04:53] <rami-> well
[04:53] <Arbiter> you can create a .desktop file that will be recognized by GDM
[04:53] <rami-> ill just read documentation
[04:54] <rami-> maybe they tell me howto start the damn thing
[04:54] <Arbiter> rami-, or you can wait that i upload the package to REVU
[04:54] <Arbiter> :P
[04:54] <rami-> exec /usr/local/bin/fluxbox
[04:54] <freebox> Somebody have an good idea for a Enterprise/Business Consult name relationed with OpenSource/FreeSoftware?
[04:55] <orbin> what do aptitude scores mean?  i'd like to remove ekiga.  it wants to remove ub-desktop ... that's cool, but it's saying score is -301?
[04:55] <ketetha_> hey
[04:55] <ketetha_> this edubuntu desktop is pretty cool
[04:55] <Arbiter> i need to get back from gnome again
[04:56] <dabbler> I am about to change my FX5200 for a 6600GT....any special setups after I do ?
[04:56] <teroedni> dabbler nope
[04:56] <tempest1> ketsugi, you can look at this for a model: http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/
[04:56] <teroedni> will just work
[04:56] <dabbler> yay  :)
[04:56] <dabbler> tx

[04:57] <tempest1> ketsugi, oooh
[04:57] <tuxmaniac> maiden30403> seems like a problem with your partitoons

[04:58] <orbin> ketetha_: sys > admin > time/date
[04:59] <maiden30403> I haven't been able to install
[04:59] <Dr4g> Whats the command to upgrade from 386 to 686
[04:59] <Dr4g> -
[04:59] <sharms> DBO, gnomefreak: if I want to make a chrooted shell server how do I do it?  I am selling it
[04:59] <CarlFK> maiden30403: boot from CD or HD?
[04:59] <maiden30403> Boot from CD
[04:59] <dseomn> is there a way to make gnome-vfs-daemon disconnect from an smb share instead of waiting for it to timeout?
[04:59] <tuxmaniac> maiden30403> what error?
[04:59] <orbin> Dr4g: install the linux-686 package
[05:00] <maiden30403> I get errors coming up talking about logical error and buffer
[05:00] <tuxmaniac> hmm..

[05:00] <ketetha_> Some_Person, where?
[05:00] <Some_Person> in /usr/share/backgrounds

[05:02] <frogzoo> pitfall: pls don't say you uninstalled apt
[05:02] <pitfall> frogzoo: nop
[05:02] <pitfall> =)
[05:02] <maiden30403> tuxmaniac, any ideas on what's wrong? Should I repartition with xp cd?
[05:02] <pitfall> this is the output of apt-get install --reinstall apt
[05:02] <Arbiter> omfg
[05:02] <pitfall> I'm trying to downgrade an edgy sys to dapper
[05:02] <pitfall> =)
[05:03] <ketetha_> orbin, in that place you gave me it doesnt like let me put events in :(
[05:03] <Arbiter> omfg^2
[05:03] <frogzoo> pitfall: well gl with that ;)
[05:03] <pitfall> frogzoo: =)
[05:03] <pitfall> thx
[05:03] <pitfall> I think it is impossible, too late
[05:03] <tirunculus_javae> Hi, I'm just about to get ubuntu and I just wanted to check that the Desktop version is the live cd + installer?  Or if I want to install it to the hd, should I just get the Server version?
[05:03] <tuxmaniac> maiden30403> Well. I dont understand your exact problem
[05:03] <pitfall> I got to delete everything
[05:03] <jrib> bic: did that work for you?
[05:03] <orbin> ketetha_: oh.  that calendar and stuff.  search the repositories for an application.  i don't think one is installed by deafult
[05:03] <tuxmaniac> tirunculus_javae> not now
[05:04] <tuxmaniac> tirunculus_javae> Both are now combined into a singel CD
[05:04] <tirunculus_javae> tuxmaniac: I stil see both versions online though, for version 6.06
[05:04] <tuxmaniac> tirunculus_javae> I mean both live and installer or same CDs now when you do a shipit
[05:04] <maiden30403> tuxmaniac, I'm just gonna try redoing all the partitions. I'll come back if it's still broke. Thnx for the help
[05:05] <tuxmaniac> tirunculus_javae> just boot using the live cd and you have an option once booted whetehr to install on HD which will take you through the process
[05:05] <YaH00> ,      
[05:05] <tirunculus_javae> tuxmaniac: All right, thanks
[05:05] <Some_Person> I hate the new graphical installer.
[05:06] <pitfall> Some_Person: me too
[05:06] <frogzoo> will kivio run under gnome
[05:06] <pitfall> Some_Person: it crash on me
[05:06] <ketetha_> orbin, okkk thanks :)
[05:06] <ketetha_> orbin, when you say repositories you mean the paackage manager?
[05:06] <skavenge> pretty much any kde app will run on gnome
[05:06] <orbin> doesn't the alternate cd let you install via ye olde text interface?
[05:07] <skavenge> orbin; yes
[05:07] <pitfall> the new install wont install ubuntu without formating the disk
[05:07] <Dr4g> guys, what was that ubuntu commando to upgrade from 386 to 686
[05:07] <Dr4g> -
[05:07] <Some_Person> First, the new installer doesn't install everything correctly (i had to manually type "gdm" on my first boot)
[05:07] <orbin> ketetha_: well yes.  the package manager searches the repository of packages :)
[05:07] <frogzoo> Dr4g: probly just 'sudo apt-get install linux-image-686'
[05:07] <Dr4g> thanks
[05:07] <oscarh> Arbiter, u din't mean me, did you?
[05:07] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, are you the Dr4g from dynamichell ?
[05:07] <Some_Person> Second, it installs GRUB to the MBR without asking.
[05:07] <Dr4g> Yes
[05:07] <Dr4g> Hey [Ex0r] 
[05:08] <[Ex0r] > What happened with it ?
[05:08] <oscarh> Arbiter, checkinstall, something
[05:08] <skavenge> the installer is brand new this edition, and how well it works depends totally on your hardware .. i clicked a few times and it was installed with no hiccups here .. you can be sure the installer will be better in edgy
[05:08] <Dr4g> It folded once i left.
[05:08] <[Ex0r] > ah, didn't know you left.
[05:08] <Arbiter> oscarh, nono i meant another person :D
[05:08] <Dr4g> I see
[05:08] <Arbiter> don't worry
[05:08] <orbin> is removing openoffice a no-no? :)
[05:08] <oscarh> Arbiter, np
[05:08] <Arbiter> ;)
[05:08] <frogzoo> orbin: don't see why it should be a prob, buy what's wrong with oo?
[05:09] <orbin> frogzoo: i don't have any need for an office suite atm
[05:09] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g- I was hoping you guys were still together so you could help my other team out a bit.
[05:09] <Some_Person> I really want the Edgy one to ask where to install GRUB.
[05:09] <CarlFK> Dr4g: sudo apt-get install linux-686
[05:10] <YaH00> yes we are still together
[05:10] <YaH00> we are able to help
[05:10] <[Ex0r] > YaH00, you are ?
[05:10] <Some_Person> Also, I want the Ubuntu people to ShipIt the "alternate" cds.
[05:11] <YaH00> Some_Person ->  what alternate?
[05:11] <CarlFK> Some_Person: excelent ida
[05:11] <fourat> anyone is using wengophone ? it's saying that the SIP port is used, and it's not
[05:11] <Dr4g> [Ex0r] : other team?
[05:11] <Dr4g> Lets go to PM
[05:11] <Some_Person> I had to do a clean install because I couldn't get the "alternate" cd because of my dialup
[05:11] <YaH00> [Ex0r]  ->  ye.hi
[05:11] <CarlFK> Some_Person: im surprised they don't
[05:11] <tempest1> Hi, I'm having problems using vmware-player ... "Module vmnet is not loaded.  Please verify that it is loaded before running this script." When I try and run the vmware-player daemon. I've tried reinstalling vmware-player-kernel-modules and everything altogether from the latest packages. Any ideas?
[05:12] <YaH00> Some_Person ->  ubunu, kubunti,edubuntu. which more cds do yoy whant?
[05:12] <skavenge> YaH00; he's talking about the alternate install cd, text based installer
[05:12] <Some_Person> Ubuntu has something called "alternate" cds which have the old text installer and the ability to upgrade your distribution.
[05:12] <Dr4g> Say i wanna connect to myself
[05:12] <Dr4g> vncviewer -passwd mypassword 127.0.0.1
[05:12] <Dr4g> Is this correct syntax ?
[05:12] <Dr4g> *
[05:12] <YaH00> skavenge ->  so what
[05:13] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, I believe so
[05:13] <CarlFK> YaH00: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/dapper-alternate-i386.iso
[05:13] <skavenge> YaH00; it has nothing to do with what window manager comes with it
[05:13] <lauri> OI, galera.
[05:13] <Dr4g> tempest1: u know ?
[05:13] <YaH00> what the fuck is this
[05:13] <Some_Person> YaH00: Don't forget xubuntu

[05:17] <krism> lauri : what's the question?
[05:17] <[Ex0r] > kill the parent process that's re-running it
[05:17] <Cody> When I kill it it drops about 20%, then goes back up. What's the parent process?
[05:17] <lauri> I bought a HP printer and I need to install it?
[05:17] <bic> how can i burn .nrg images with gnomebaker ?
[05:17] <lauri> How can I install a HP printer in my linux?
[05:18] <YaH00>   
[05:18] <[Ex0r] > bic, .nrg is a nero image. I don't know that you can.
[05:18] <gnomefreak> YaH00: stop now
[05:18] <Some_Person> How come in Windows my printer takes 1 hour to install the drivers when in Ubuntu the drivers are already installed?
[05:18] <fonk> Hi! Can anyone tell me if STR is supportet on 12" g4-powerbooks or is just suspend to disk working?

[05:19] <bic> is there absolutely no way i can burn .nrg images ? :(
[05:19] <YaH00> ubuntu is cool
[05:19] <YaH00> kubuntu is better
[05:20] <FunnyLookinHat> YaH00, this belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:20] <CarlFK> YaH00: cut the chatter (please)
[05:20] <narfmaster> bic, use nrg2iso
[05:20] <FunnyLookinHat> thanks gnomefreak

[05:20] <Cody> What is the parent process of modprobe?
[05:20] <Dr4g> :P
[05:20] <CarlFK> snoops: have you seen  "project manager" ?
[05:20] <krism> sorry, was an accidental middle click
[05:20] <Dr4g> Had to do it krism
[05:20] <krism> bic: see
[05:20] <sharms> Cody: it shouldn't have a parent process
[05:21] <krism> ah forget it, just look up "nrg2iso"
[05:21] <Cody> I didn't think so, so how can I kill it?
[05:21] <[Ex0r] > krism, that corrupts the image :\
[05:21] <bic> ok, thanks
[05:21] <krism> lol Dr4g meant to past a URL, had the wrong thing on the clipboard (obviously)
[05:21] <sharms> Cody: ps aux | grep modprobe
[05:21] <Dr4g> obviously
[05:21] <snoops> hmm not really what I'm after CarlFK
[05:21] <Dr4g> lol
[05:21] <krism> [Ex0r]  : try ccd2iso ?
[05:21] <bic> does it corrupt the image ? ;\
[05:21] <krism> ack nevermind
[05:21] <snoops> just had a look.. seems pretty 'eh'. Need something more polished
[05:21] <Cody> That doesn't work, it just drops cpu usage and goes back up
[05:21] <[Ex0r] > Didn't try that. I used nrg2iso and it made a corrupted ISO image
[05:21] <tempest1> Cody, ps aux | grep modprobe | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9
[05:21] <skavenge> bic; it shouldnt, its sin the repos
[05:21] <patrick_> can anyone provide or point me to list of common/generic processes that ubuntu will have up and running by default, as there seems to be alot of HDD activity and strange slow downs (tryin to optimize Ubuntu Box)
[05:21] <[Ex0r] > I had to take the nrg to a windows machine and burn it
[05:21] <skavenge> !info nrg2iso
[05:21] <ubotu> nrg2iso: Extracts ISO9660 data from Nero ".nrg" files. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.4-1.1 (dapper), package size 4 kB, installed size 64 kB
[05:22] <krism> [Ex0r]  that's ok, ccd2iso converts a .ccd anyway. sheesh.
[05:22] <usama> hi all
[05:22] <krism> bic : you can try it and see if it works? :)
[05:22] <skavenge> hopefully it was compiled with largefile support in the repos, because its a pain in the arse and wont work otherwise
[05:22] <hzg> do anyone edit python project with pida 0.3.1
[05:22] <usama> i have installed dapper, when i gave command "natilus", it says bad command (that was working in breezy)? can anyone tell me why?
[05:23] <skavenge> usama; try nautilus
[05:23] <[Ex0r] > skavenge, it corrupted the .iso that I made with it. More than once.
[05:23] <CarlFK> snoops: for drawings I like dia or ... um.. the other one...
[05:23] <krism> lol skavenge beat me to it
[05:23] <Toge> hello
[05:23] <Cody> Modprobe still won't die
[05:23] <[Ex0r] > It was a very large .nrg too
[05:23] <sharms> Cody: kill -9 pidnum
[05:23] <skavenge> [Ex0r]  i could never get it to work either, always tried with full dvds and it broke
[05:23] <usama> skavenge: oh :D yes, sorry i was wrong :)
[05:23] <skavenge> np
[05:24] <snoops> the other one CarlFK?
[05:24] <Spec> i wish everyone apologized when they were wrong :)
[05:24] <Dr4g> I'm having problems - VNC Server is setup on a friends win32 machine, i've port scanned and ports open.
[05:24] <Dr4g> When he tries to connect to his own IP, conn refused, and ican't either
[05:24] <Dr4g> possible solutions
[05:24] <Dr4g> -
[05:24] <Cody> sharms: that gives me: bash: kill: pidnum: arguments must be process or job IDs
[05:24] <CarlFK> snoops: I thought there was one that was part of Open Office, but maybe that is dia
[05:24] <sharms> Cody: pidnum is the pid number, given by ps aux | grep modprobe
[05:24] <Spec> Cody: pidnum being the PID of the process you're trying to kill
[05:25] <Cody> sorry, i tryed that last night and it didn't work either
[05:25] <patrick_> can anyone provide or point me to list of common/generic processes that ubuntu will have up and running by default, as there seems to be alot of HDD activity and strange slow downs (tryin to optimize Ubuntu Box)
[05:25] <CarlFK> snoops: I like qCad, but that is proably not what you want
[05:25] <sharms> Cody: modprobe isn't a background process, it basically only runs when you run it.  It doesn't run 24/7
[05:25] <tempest1> Dr4g, I bet it's a firewall
[05:26] <Dr4g> tempest1: firewall is AOK
[05:26] <Skaag> so, I heard we're about to have non-free repositories!
[05:26] <Jeruvy> Dr4g: what if you telent onto the port do you get a response?  Is the server running?
[05:26] <poje> patrick_: there's no need to repeat, if someone has an answer they'll respond to you (personally, I would think google is your friend on that one)
[05:26] <patrick_> skaag: do we not already
[05:26] <tempest1> Dr4g, well something is blocking it on his computer
[05:26] <patrick_> ?
[05:26] <sharms> patrick_: that list exists on www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:26] <Cody> Sharms: it does for me
[05:26] <Dr4g> Jeruvy: ports open..
[05:26] <Skaag> patrick_: ah, it's started?!
[05:26] <Spec> kill -9 `ps aux |grep -i program| awk {'print $2'}`
[05:26] <bolrod> pkill
[05:26] <snoops> hmm okay thanks CarlFK
[05:27] <bolrod> pkill -9 program
[05:27] <Jeruvy> Dr4g: well connection refused means something is actively not allowing that connect.  I'd be reviewing firewall
[05:27] <krism> Dr4g : i don't know of any VNC server that will allow you to connect to yourself. maybe you can try connecting to it from another computer?
[05:27] <Dr4g> i'm not connecting to myself
[05:27] <Spec> yes, vnc will not let you connect to yourself
[05:27] <patrick_> Skaag: whats started
[05:27] <Dr4g> even by specifying external IP? not localhost
[05:27] <cbx33> is it easy to run gnome and fluxbox for example side by side?
[05:27] <Spec> Dr4g: what vnc server are you using?
[05:27] <Cody> Spec, still didn't die
[05:27] <krism> Dr4g : even by the external IP
[05:27] <Spec> Cody: is it a zombie process or something?
[05:27] <CarlFK> snoops: looking at Add/remove apps - I see kivio - a flowcharting program for the KDE Office Suite,
[05:28] <Skaag> patrick_: the repository of non-free/commercial software
[05:28] <Dr4g> krism: ok
[05:28] <patrick_> oh
[05:28] <fourat> can anyone tell me if this host is respnding to pings : ping 213.91.9.249
[05:28] <snoops> k I'll try that out CarlFK
[05:28] <snoops> thanks
[05:28] <bic> ok, i installed nrg2iso. but where is it ? i can't find it in the menus =\
[05:28] <patrick_> skaag: I seem to have them 1 sec to confirm
[05:28] <CarlFK> snoops: openoffice.org-draw - OpenOffice.org office suite - drawing
[05:28] <patrick_> urls
[05:28] <cbx33> fourat, nope
[05:28] <snoops> I think I may have to just write an app to do exactly what I want :/
[05:28] <Spec> fourat: nope
[05:28] <Dr4g> Okay i just tried to connect..
[05:28] <Dr4g> Connection refused
[05:28] <krism> fourat : it tried to surrender to me.. *ducks*
[05:28] <Spec> bic: it's probably a command line utility
[05:28] <[Ex0r] > bic, it's a console based client. Open a terminal and type nrg2iso blah.nrg blah.iso
[05:28] <skavenge> bic; its a commandline program, you need to open a terminal
[05:29] <Spec> bic: considering how small it is (64K)
[05:29] <Dr4g> dr4g@dr4g-desktop:~$ vncviewer -passwd pass 81.157.48.47
[05:29] <Dr4g> this ok ?
[05:29] <Spec> wow, that was a lot of responses :p
[05:29] <bic> oh, i see, thanks guys
[05:29] <jonah1980> join #dvdbackup
[05:29] <Spec> Dr4g: yes
[05:29] <Spec> Dr4g: have you looked at the logs of the vnc server?
[05:29] <Cody> no its not zombie at all
[05:29] <Spec> Cody: why won't it die? :-/
[05:29] <fourat> thanks all
[05:29] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, don't you have to attach a terminal number to it as well ?
[05:29] <patrick_> skaag: for Binaries http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf
[05:29] <Dr4g> [Ex0r] : explain more.
[05:29] <poje> [Ex0r] : nope, vncviewer doesn't care
[05:29] <Skaag> patrick_: thanks man! :)
[05:29] <Spec> [Ex0r] : no, the default is probably okay
[05:30] <Cody> I don't know, but hogging cpu usage and causing it to almost over heat
[05:30] <Dr4g> Spec: its not my machine, were are logs on win32 tightvnc
[05:30] <krism> Dr4g : can you port scan that IP, or try to telnet to 5500 or 5501?
[05:30] <Dr4g> krism: yes the port is open
[05:30] <Dr4g> 5900 is default port
[05:30] <patrick_> skaag: For Source http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf
[05:30] <Spec> Dr4g: How am I supposed to know? I know where the logs are in linux... :)
[05:30] <Dr4g> hehe spec
[05:30] <bertu> Can someone tell me a p2p program?
[05:30] <krism> Dr4g : whoops, 5500 is default for a listening viewer, sorry ;)
[05:30] <gorski> how to create .deb files?
[05:30] <Spec> bertu: frostwire
[05:30] <Dr4g> :)
[05:30] <Spec> bertu: limewire, gnutella,
[05:30] <skavenge> limewire, frostwire, amule, etc etc
[05:31] <skavenge> !p2p
[05:31] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut
[05:31] <krism> Dr4g : then i'd suspect the VNC server is not running, or perhaps your friend has a misconfigured router
[05:31] <bic> i have the nrg image on the mounted ntfs partition =\ can i move or copy it here on ubuntu ?
[05:31] <Spec> gorski: there's a great how-to .... ask for it perhaps in #ubuntu-motu
[05:31] <Dr4g> its not a router - direct connection
[05:31] <patrick_> bertu: what u want recommendations or problem with existing p2p app
[05:31] <Dr4g> and setup server appropriately
[05:31] <Dr4g> as server is listening on port 5900
[05:31] <bertu> recommandation
[05:31] <[Ex0r] > bic you can but it's not advised
[05:31] <netbrain> hi guys, i need some assistance. Ive just bought a brand new external usb harddrive. does anyone have a suggestion of what kind of filesystem i could use, so that the harddrive would be accessible by both windows and linux out of the box?vfat doesnt support large files, and with ntfs there is a risk of destroying the filesystem under linux. is there any one else?
[05:31] <poje> krism: are you sure port forwarding is set up correctly?
[05:31] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, try just vncviewer <ip>
[05:31] <krism> poje : ?
[05:31] <[Ex0r] > than when it prompts for password put it in
[05:31] <Cody> Can some else tell me how much, if at all, modprobe is using of cpu usage for them
[05:31] <patrick_> bertu: FrostWire
[05:31] <phocus> what pakage can i install to get xlibs? cedega is saying that it needs it
[05:31] <skavenge> netbrain; fat32
[05:31] <poje> krism: is your friend behind a router?
[05:31] <Spec> bic: copying is just fine
[05:31] <Spec> bic: it's writing to ntfs that's risky
[05:32] <stefg> netbrain: there are ext2fs drivers for win
[05:32] <orbin> netbrain: ext3 + ext3 driver for windows
[05:32] <krism> poje: you're looking for Dr4g, not me. :)
[05:32] <bertu> using apt-get?
[05:32] <patrick_> bertu: Limewire (Identical)
[05:32] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, btw, -passwd <password> is invalid
[05:32] <Spec> frostwire > limewire
[05:32] <Dr4g> i knew it
[05:32] <bertu> but using apt-get function?
[05:32] <Dr4g> [Ex0r] : so whats syntax to connect with a PW
[05:32] <skavenge> lime/frostwire needs java installed as well if you havent done that ...
[05:32] <Spec> Dr4g: use vncpasswd to make a file with a vnc password
[05:32] <Spec> Dr4g: then point -passwd to that file
[05:32] <poje> krism: bah, sorry ;(
[05:33] <netbrain> orbin: yes i used that at first. but when the usbdisk is automaticly mounted in xfce, a normal user doesnt have write access to a journaling file system.
[05:33] <netbrain> ext3
[05:33] <Dr4g> spec thanks ill try that now
[05:33] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, -passwd is used to specify the path where the password file is, not the password itself
[05:33] <Spec>  Dr4g although, i'm fairly certain -passwd foobar should work, assuming the passwd is foobar
[05:33] <patrick_> bertu: cant think what other p2p apps except maybe Gnomoradio Music Player
[05:33] <Spec> [Ex0r] : i believe it can be used for both
[05:33] <[Ex0r] > Spec, not what the man page says
[05:33] <bertu> how can i download it
[05:33] <orbin> netbrain: i think that can be easily resolved by editing fstab?
[05:33] <poje> Dr4g: is your friend's router port forwarding the vnc port?
[05:33] <bertu> limewire
[05:33] <[Ex0r] >  -passwd password-file
[05:33] <[Ex0r] >               If  you  are on a filesystem which gives you access to the pass
[05:33] <[Ex0r] >               word file used by the server, you can specify it here  to  avoid
[05:33] <[Ex0r] >               typing it in.  It will usually be "~/.vnc/passwd".
[05:33] <[Ex0r] > whoops
[05:33] <Dr4g> poje - no router
[05:33] <Spec> [Ex0r] : perhaps, but i believe i used a passwd in that field a week ago and it worked
[05:33] <phocus> what pakage can i install to get xlibs? cedega is saying that it needs it
[05:33] <Spec> i could be wrong though, it doesn't hurt to try
[05:34] <netbrain> orbin: yes, but i dont want to use fstab
[05:34] <poje> Dr4g: and you're sure the server is installed and running properly
[05:34] <krism> (waiting for the !paste, hehe)
[05:34] <h3sp4wn> Any one got any ideas why the initrd is not includes into the deb when I use make-kpkg clean && make-kpkg --revision=$(date +'%Y%m%d') --append-to-version=-$(hostname) --rootcmd fakeroot clean && make-kpkg --revision=$(date +'%Y%m%d') --append-to-version=-$(hostname) --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel_image modules_image kernel_source kernel_headers ?
[05:34] <patrick_> Gnomoradio Music Player is avail on apt
[05:34] <Spec> although normally vncviewer will tell you authentication failed, instead of connection timed out if your password is incorrect/formatted cincorrectly
[05:34] <netbrain> orbin: it has to be wrirable through xfce automounter
[05:34] <skavenge> bertu; frostwire is the same and free .. 'sudo apt-get install frostwire'
[05:34] <Dr4g> [Ex0r] : wheres the default location for the passwd file
[05:34] <mattnash> Hi folks, I am trying to configure winbind and samba to allow authentication against my AD servers, according to the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[05:34] <[Ex0r] > ~/.vnc/passwd
[05:34] <Dr4g> ty
[05:34] <mattnash> I can get a krb ticket with kinit
[05:35] <krism> Dr4g : try it without the password - just do "vncviewer IP", it will prompt you
[05:35] <bertu> sry
[05:35] <patrick_> bertu: google either LimeWire or FrostWire should be first page....real straight forward to install
[05:35] <bertu> ok
[05:35] <mattnash> but when I try to log in with an AD user, I get "incorrect password or invalid membership" in the logs.
[05:35] <Spec> bertu: frostwire is better and more free than limewire
[05:35] <Dr4g> krism: still connection refused
[05:35] <bertu> 10x
[05:35] <Jeruvy> Dr4g: I concur I don't believe the server is running or responding.
[05:35] <patrick_> yeah support FrostWire
[05:35] <Spec> bertu: free as in speech, that is, not as in beer. they are equally free as in beer
[05:35] <krism> Dr4g : at this point i would seriously question the server install :-/
[05:35] <bertu> ok 10x
[05:36] <patrick_> its openSource Minded
[05:36] <Dr4g> krism: Jeruvy Spec and so on
[05:36] <Dr4g> Thanks for your self
[05:36] <Spec> Dr4g: good luck :p
[05:36] <sarixe> anyone know if i can install an x86 ubuntu over an amd64 ubuntu?  I need to keep all my settings, but the compatibility with programs is absolutely nonexistent.
[05:36] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, me too. You should either A.) Check to make sure it's running and listening on a default port. (ps aux |grep vncserver or check to make sure it's configured properly
[05:37] <Spec> [Ex0r] : it's on a win32 box
[05:37] <Spec> [Ex0r] : the 'ps' and 'grep' commands are not able to be found in windows
[05:37] <[Ex0r] > ah
[05:37] <Spec> maybe if you use cygwin though :p
[05:37] <Dr4g> it is listening
[05:37] <Dr4g> i nmapped
[05:37] <Dr4g> ONONnononono the guys a half-newb
[05:37] <Spec> Dr4g: that means the port is open
[05:37] <Dr4g> i wouldnt want to fry his brain
[05:37] <Spec> Dr4g: doesn't mean the server's up
[05:37] <Dr4g> oh
[05:38] <Dr4g> so it listens even when u don't choose "setup server" or whatever
[05:38] <Jeruvy> Dr4g: exactly, just because the port is open doesn't mean anyones home :)
[05:38] <Dr4g> thats unsecure
[05:38] <[Ex0r] > Dr4g, who were you referring to with half-noob ?
[05:38] <Spec> Dr4g: we're talking about windows, right?
[05:38] <Spec> Dr4g: :)
[05:38] <Dr4g> someone on MSN
[05:38] <eitch0000> is there some package I can install to watch wmv's?
[05:38] <[Ex0r] > ah :)
[05:38] <Dr4g> Spec: yes i don't have windows installed so i can't check it out

[05:38] <Dr4g> wait.. i have a w32 machine behind me
[05:38] <teknoprep> why ubuntu over kubuntu?
[05:38] <teknoprep> are they the same except for kde?
[05:38] <Spec> teknoprep: yes
[05:39] <patrick_> Toteem works with me for WMV
[05:39] <sarixe> does anyone know if it's okay to just install ubuntu x86 over amd64, without wiping the partition first?
[05:39] <Spec> teknoprep: you can intall minimal ubuntu and get kubuntu by doing: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, you can also: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, or even: apt-get install xubuntu-desktop, and i believe you can even: apt-get install edubuntu-desktop
[05:39] <skavenge> sarixe; i dont know but i doubt it .. seems like it would likely break
[05:39] <sarixe> k
[05:40] <Spec> sarixe: seems like it should work?
[05:40] <damotor> Hi
[05:40] <Spec> sarixe: x86 on amd64 works, it's just suckier
[05:40] <phocus> what pakage can i install to get xlibs? cedega is saying that it needs it
[05:40] <fiXXXerMet> Could anyone recommend a ubuntu 6.06 Server mirror?  The ones at ubuntu.com are only putting out ~70K.  A bittorrent, or something?
[05:40] <sarixe> so how would i get my settings over to a new x86 installation?
[05:40] <Spec> sarixe: i could be wrong :)
[05:40] <damotor> how can I move files from my pc to my ipaq?
[05:40] <patrick_> sarixe: have a backup if u have to do it
[05:40] <patrick_> or just DL 64bit version
[05:40] <sarixe> spec: amd64 is too new for developers, it seems.  i can't stand not having flash and java anymore.
[05:41] <orbin> fiXXXerMet: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[05:41] <skavenge> sarixe; id backup your home directory since thats where most your desktop config etc is saved, clean install and replace the home dir
[05:41] <sarixe> right
[05:41] <sarixe> o
[05:41] <sarixe> ok*
[05:41] <sarixe> i'll do that.
[05:41] <patrick_> ah

[05:43] <orbin> bertu: actually, ps aux maybe
[05:43] <col-panic> brb
[05:43] <phocus> ya, i cant find it
[05:43] <phocus> et.net]  has joined #ubuntu
[05:43] <bertu> i didnt understand u
[05:44] <col-panic> phocus: apt-get install xlibs
[05:44] <orbin> bertu: they're commands you can type in the terminal: 'top' and 'ps aux'
[05:44] <col-panic> :D
[05:44] <Spec> bertu: you wanted to know how to monitor processes?
[05:44] <phocus> no package xlibs
[05:44] <bertu> yes
[05:44] <col-panic> make sure you got all your repositories installed
[05:44] <col-panic> I got it on breezy
[05:44] <orbin> bertu: you can use gnome's system monitor if you're more into guis
[05:44] <bertu> ok
[05:44] <teknoprep> hmm
[05:44] <Spec> bertu: I think a really cool one is "htop", but you'll need to install it, and run it from the commandline.
[05:44] <col-panic> i added all my repos on dialup, Im patient :)
[05:44] <Spec> !htop
[05:44] <col-panic> btw, which cedega ver. # you got?
[05:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about htop - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:44] <patrick_> must be really patient man
[05:45] <patrick_> lots of stuff I mean lots
[05:45] <col-panic> patrick_, only thing I wont do on dialup is dist-upgrade
[05:45] <phocus> not sure
[05:45] <orbin> Spec: !info <package>
[05:45] <phocus> deb package
[05:45] <col-panic> I hear dapper's list is bigger *eep*
[05:45] <col-panic> heh
[05:45] <patrick_> yeah That would make me cry
[05:45] <col-panic> probably 5.2.1
[05:46] <col-panic> i think thats current, Im still at 5.1.3 because (no real reason)
[05:46] <col-panic> just wish I had dapper already so I could add 3d accel to this card :S
[05:46] <patrick_> col-panic@: Dial-up still great to fall back on
[05:46] <col-panic> patrick_, cable company goes everywhere around me but here
[05:46] <col-panic> this is a fork in a long road, and the other fork gets cable even though its farther :|
[05:47] <patrick_> yeah they wont provide me with anymore than 1.1mbts
[05:47] <patrick_> entitled to 8 but seagate hog the exchange
[05:47] <ccn> how would one adjust your video screens brightness, i need to make things brighter as my monitor isnt too great. i can do this in windows and it works great so i would presume i can in ubuntu as well?
[05:48] <phocus> xvidtune
[05:48] <patrick_> hhmmmm
[05:48] <phocus> or , there is a knob on the inside of your monitor, if you take off the back pannel, that will make it brigter
[05:48] <patrick_> lol
[05:48] <ccn> haha
[05:48] <ccn> if i could make it brighter there, i would have :p
[05:48] <patrick_> dont do that
[05:48] <rami-> !adding fluxbox to gdm
[05:48] <ubotu> I know nothing about adding fluxbox to gdm - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:48] <rami-> damn M<
[05:48] <patrick_> glow in the dark after that
[05:49] <rami-> bad bot BAD BOT!
[05:49] <lordhedgie> Heya all, having trouble with a Wifi connection....  NDISWrappers installed, and it correctly finds the ESSID, Channel, etc., but it says signal strength zero.
[05:49] <bertu> hey can someone tell me from where i can download drivers for my creative live 24 bit?
[05:49] <Spec> Seveas: is -ops a restricted channel?
[05:49] <patrick_> do creative not provide those on ther site
[05:49] <jrib> rami-: have you checked fluxbox faq?
[05:50] <bertu> so what can i do?
[05:50] <Spec> lordhedgie: what card?
[05:50] <rami-> jrib tryin
[05:50] <rami-> jrib with not so good success
[05:50] <patrick_> bertu: 1sec
[05:50] <jrib> rami-: http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq.php#gdm
[05:50] <rami-> .xsessions and .xinitrc
[05:50] <bertu> because i have 5.1 spks and only from 2 spks comes out sone
[05:50] <bertu> *sound
[05:50] <rami-> those should be in my home folder
[05:50] <rami-> YEA RIGHT
[05:50] <rami-> their not ;<
[05:50] <lordhedgie> Its a USB card from Dell.  I was using it in Mandriva with NDISWrapper and DELLNIC.INF, but I think its a PRISM chipset.
[05:50] <jrib> rami-: you can create them
[05:50] <Spec> bertu: that's a pain to get to work, unfortunately :-/
[05:51] <bertu> ok just leave it
[05:51] <rami-> jrib wich should i create?
[05:51] <patrick_> yeah it seems so in google anyhow
[05:51] <lordhedgie> I used ndisgtk to load the same INF file that worked in Mandriva, and it says it worked...  Just won't community
[05:51] <rami-> .xsessions
[05:51] <rami-> thx
[05:51] <jrib> rami-: neither if you want a gdm session file
[05:51] <lordhedgie> s/community/communicate/
[05:51] <Spec> unless he uses xmms, in which case it's easy ..... too bad he quit :p
[05:51] <rami-> jrib how bout KDM?
[05:51] <jrib> rami-: that's the next question in the faq
[05:52] <Spec> lordhedgie: well, i don't know, you can't get an IP?
[05:52] <patrick_> Is Firefox 2 out yet?
[05:52] <ccn> phocus: what in xvidtune has to do with brightness?
[05:52] <lordhedgie> Spec -- Nope.  It says the link quality is zero, doesn't light up the card
[05:52] <Spec> lordhedgie: but it auto-gets the ESSID?
[05:52] <lordhedgie> Spec -- But it can scan and see the network -- just shows it zero strength
[05:53] <Spec> lordhedgie: that's unfortunate, i don't know ... :-/
[05:53] <lordhedgie> Spec -- Actually I put the ESSID in, and it got the MAC and channel automatically
[05:53] <rami-> cannot even get the KDM to be my default boot manager :I
[05:53] <jrib> rami-: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[05:54] <Spec> lordhedgie: well, if it got the mac that means it's seeing packets
[05:54] <rami-> jrib i know
[05:54] <rami-> i set it kdm
[05:54] <Spec> lordhedgie: i dont' know what i'd do though, perhaps try setting the rate to 11M: iwconfig <interface> rate 11M
[05:54] <lordhedgie> Spec.  Yeah, I know.  I'm stumped.  I've gotten the card to work in Mandrake 9.0, FC3 and Mandriva.
[05:54] <mattnash> So... who here has successfully configured winbind and samba to authenticate against an AD domain?
[05:54] <Seveas> Spec, no
[05:54] <lordhedgie> Spec -- I'll try that, as1.
[05:54] <Seveas> -ops is open to anyone
[05:55] <Seveas> especially if people have complaints
[05:55] <Spec> Seveas: oo, we can complain there :)
[05:55] <Seveas> Spec, yes, you can complain and be ignored :
[05:55] <Spec> Seveas: it'll feel better
[05:56] <Viiso> Hi Everyone!
[05:56] <lordhedgie> Spec -- I got unknown error 524. :)
[05:56] <patrick_> does linux support usb dsl modems yet
[05:56] <Spec> lordhedgie: eh?
[05:56] <Spec> lordhedgie: sorry, i've never seen that before :-/
[05:56] <lordhedgie> Spec: Me neither.
[05:56] <Spec> patrick_: i believe some of them are supported
[05:56] <patrick_> bt?
[05:56] <Spec> patrick_: Or, rather, are able to be used
[05:56] <rami-> ARGH
[05:57] <cArNy> crap my kid just took a crap in the floor  brb
[05:57] <rami-> how do i kill dpkg-reconfigure process??
[05:57] <rami-> i kill her PID number
[05:57] <rami-> and new one comes up
[05:57] <rsk> rami-, ctrl c ?
[05:57] <Spec> !info slay
[05:57] <ubotu> slay: Kills all of the user's processes. In repository universe, is optional. Version 2.5 (dapper), package size 9 kB, installed size 76 kB
[05:57] <rami-> wont work
[05:57] <lordhedgie> Spec: I'm stumped.  I've gotten this to work with the same drivers in lots of other distros, but it's just mumpfing me right now.
[05:57] <rami-> wont work!!!!
[05:57] <rsk> 8(
[05:57] <rami-> DAMN
[05:57] <soccio> Hi
[05:57] <rami-> its stuck at tty2
[05:57] <rami-> i hate this
[05:57] <Spec> lordhedgie: same drivers? hmm, what about the version of ndiswrapper?
[05:57] <lordhedgie> Spec: Same drivers, don't know about ndiswrapper.
[05:58] <Spec> lordhedgie: dpkg -l ndiswrapper
[05:58] <Spec> or maybe ndiswrapper-utils
[05:58] <Spec> or maybe ndiswrapper*, since apparantly -l supports wildcards :)
[05:58] <patrick_> does anyone know a quick instant kind of way to get on Usenet without using my browser
[05:58] <interfear> how do i convert a dvd iso into a divx?
[05:58] <abhinay> hey, u can request DVDs of any distro at  http://free.thelinuxstore.ca/   for  FREE
[05:58] <rsk> interfear, with mencoder
[05:59] <interfear> cool ill check it out..
[05:59] <patrick_> i lack the config knowledge and most are paid
[05:59] <lordhedgie> Spec: It says it can't find any packages.
[05:59] <col-panic> peace
[05:59] <jrib> patrick_: google groups
[05:59] <jrib> patrick_: erm http://groups.google.com/ (not google for 'groups')
[05:59] <Spec> lordhedgie: hmm, i don't know how to check the version of the ndiswrapper that's in the kernel
[05:59] <skavenge> or install PAN
[05:59] <patrick_> without webbrowser
[05:59] <patrick_> is it preconfigured
[06:00] <patrick_> like xchat-gnome
[06:00] <patrick_> all i hadto do with that was put my name in
[06:00] <lordhedgie> Spec: Me neither.  Is there a way to make lsmod do it?
[06:00] <skavenge> Spec; its 1.8
[06:01] <Spec> lordhedgie: well then, do you happen to know the version on mandrake? :)
[06:01] <Spec> or mandriva or whatever
[06:01] <wongy> hi all!  has anyone else had network-manager stop working after upgrading to dapper?
[06:01] <wongy> my Intel ipw2100 wireless NIC no longer seems to work properly
[06:01] <kbrosnan> patrick_, Firefox 2 is due out around mid September, Beta 1 was just released by mozilla yesterday.
[06:01] <lordhedgie> Spec: No, so I'm not sure it would help. :)  But I first used the card a few years ago on Mandrake, the FC3, and the October 2005 release of Mandriva.
[06:02] <pike_> someone know offhand where firefox stores the hompage setting in .firefox?
[06:02] <torpedo|dog> patrick_: there's no real way to preconfigure it, since your settings are provided by your ISP normally.
[06:02] <wongy> network manager tells me there are NO network devices when in Breezy it showed both the wireless and ethernet
[06:02] <kbrosnan> pike_, user.js
[06:02] <lordhedgie> wongy: Do you use ndiswrapper for your wireless?
[06:03] <rami-> shit i need to close my xserver >:[
[06:03] <rami-> but i dont know howto use konsole process managers
[06:03] <wongy> lordhedgie: no, just the kernel ipw2100 module
[06:03] <rami-> like top
[06:03] <POVaddct> lordhedgie: for ipw2100 ndiswrapper is not needed
[06:03] <pike_> kbrosnan: ah ty
[06:03] <lordhedgie> wongy: Lucky... I'm fighting ndis right now. :(
[06:04] <wongy> lordhedgie: oh, good luck.  The Intel 2100 works quite well, generally.
[06:04] <lordhedgie> Wongy: I
[06:04] <lordhedgie> Wongy: I've gotten the module installed, and I can talk to the card.  It sees the network, but won't join it.
[06:05] <wongy> lordhedgie: try turning off WEP/WPA until you get connected
[06:05] <fdsd> lordhedgie, tomorrow I can
[06:05] <asabil> hmmm
[06:05] <asabil> how do i burn the ubuntu iso from osx ?
[06:06] <fdsd> asabil, right click on it and open with disk utility
[06:06] <Spec> asabil: any program that has the ability to burn ISOs will do it
[06:06] <lordhedgie> wongy: They're off.
[06:06] <asabil> actually disk utility crashes
[06:06] <fdsd> asabil, then do an archive and install on your macosx machine
[06:06] <Spec> wongy: would you say it's the best? I've heard marvel(l?) is good
[06:06] <fdsd> asabil, what version of osx?
[06:06] <asabil> ???
[06:06] <asabil> 10.4.6
[06:07] <rami-> jrib LIKE THOSE WILL HELP WITH UBUNTU
[06:07] <rami-> thanks very much
[06:07] <Spec> The 100$ laptop made by Negroponte uses a marvell chip for wireless, and they're doing complex mesh-network stuff with it. 60 meter range is what i've heard....
[06:07] <fdsd> asabil, yeah, take your tiger disk, stick it in, reboot, Hold down c, and select archive and install from the options menu, it will fix it
[06:07] <wongy> spec: no idea but this is built-in to my laptop
[06:07] <Spec> wongy: well, i've heard intel's chipsets are pretty good with linux, as well :)
[06:07] <wongy> Spec: sounds impressive.
[06:08] <asabil> fix what ?
[06:08] <fdsd> asabil, disk utility
[06:08] <asabil> is it broken ?
[06:08] <fdsd> asabil, is it crashing?
[06:08] <wongy> Spec: they have been providing good support for their wireless through their ipw2100.sf.net project
[06:08] <pitfall> re
[06:08] <asabil> the progress bar statys at 0
[06:09] <FunnyLookinHat> Intel Wireless is AWESOME
[06:09] <asabil> i canceled a burning
[06:09] <fdsd> asabil, what progress bar?
[06:09] <FunnyLookinHat> As is intel video support for liniux.
[06:09] <asabil> and found that the dvd got burned
[06:09] <pitfall> could not open default font 'fixed' => anyone canhelp me ?
[06:09] <Spec> wongy: intel is the winner then :)
[06:09] <asabil> the one displayed while burning an iso
[06:09] <pitfall> what am I missing ?
[06:09] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, dont agree
[06:09] <fdsd> asabil, well, who knows then
[06:09] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, i can't get suspend/resume tow ork properly with intel 915
[06:09] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, do you happen to use intel?
[06:09] <FunnyLookinHat> pitfall, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
[06:10] <lordhedgie> Does Ubuntu have a GUI for wireless configuration?
[06:10] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, I have intel 910.
[06:10] <wongy> Spec: yep kudos to them
[06:10] <lordhedgie> Beyond the network settings tool, I mean.
[06:10] <wongy> lordhedgie: through System > Admin > networking
[06:10] <FunnyLookinHat> Though I have never used suspend resume...  except for closing the screen and whatnot, and that worked out of the box with dapper
[06:10] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, suspend/resume works?
[06:10] <Spec> i've seen suspend/resume work just fine on a laptop with ubuntu-dapper
[06:10] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, afaik.
[06:10] <soundray> pitfall: try installing x-window-system-core as well as what FunnyLookinHat says
[06:11] <rami-> fucking fuck i need to keel the xserver
[06:11] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, yea when i close the screen.. and re-open it gets stuck
[06:11] <Tmob> the screen just is blank
[06:11] <wongy> lordhedgie: it is supposed to look after wireless too.  Maybe you should try installing network-manager and network-manager-gnome
[06:11] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, oh yea that works great for me
[06:11] <Tmob> oh really! :(
[06:11] <pitfall> FunnyLookinHat: soundray thx
[06:11] <Spec> It works out-of-the-box with ease with a LinuxCertified laptop (not sure about how good/worth the price is though)
[06:11] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, try changing your screensaver settings once, that may be it
[06:11] <wongy> rami-: ctrl-alt-backspace
[06:11] <pitfall> FunnyLookinHat: soundray I'm downgrading an edgysystem =)
[06:11] <rami-> wongy its just RESTART
[06:11] <rami-> i need to KEEL it!
[06:11] <pitfall> so, wservercore wasinstalled
[06:11] <rami-> for good
[06:11] <pitfall> but no more xfonts-core
[06:11] <pitfall> everything is ok for now;)
[06:11] <pitfall> thx for the feedback
[06:11] <soundray> pitfall: better to reinstall...
[06:12] <poje> What would be the best way to try and recover the data on my friend's external HD? Under windows it shows as not being formatted and I can't get it to mount under linux (tried autorecognizing the fs and using vfat) - according to the friend nothing wiped it, so I'm guessing the partition table is foobarred and I don't really have experience fixing em
[06:12] <FunnyLookinHat> pitfall, oh gross!
[06:12] <rami-> i need to change my default runlevel!
[06:12] <FunnyLookinHat> pitfall, yea you should just save your /home partition if you hvae one and reinstall
[06:12] <pitfall> soundray: I don't thinkso ;)
[06:12] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, turn off screensaver?
[06:12] <lordhedgie> Wongy -- I'll see if they're installed
[06:12] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, i have blank screen after a while..
[06:12] <pitfall> FunnyLookinHat: hmmm, it is amusing ;)
[06:12] <pitfall> =)
[06:12] <pitfall> but thx
[06:12] <rami-> inittab!
[06:12] <pitfall> Iallready got a backup
[06:12] <pitfall> =)
[06:13] <soundray> poje: to fix partition tables, try gpart (do not confuse with gparted)
[06:13] <soundray> !info gpart
[06:13] <ubotu> gpart: Guess PC disk partition table, find lost partitions. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.1h-4 (dapper), package size 34 kB, installed size 112 kB
[06:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, well, or change the default SS that it uses.  I changed mine to euphoria or something and then it started working.
[06:13] <rami-> NOOO
[06:13] <rami-> it still fucking restarts it
[06:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, it was like, it needed me to set a screensaveer other than random... i don't know.
[06:13] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, ooh.. i said "No screensaver" i think
[06:13] <wongy> rami-: what are you trying to do?
[06:13] <poje> soundray: it'll try to recognize the fs type and mount it itself?
[06:13] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, interesting.. ok will try it
[06:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, what make/model laptop do  you have?
[06:13] <soundray> rami-: can you please ensure that this channel remains suitable for everyone.
[06:13] <rami-> ic ic
[06:13] <Tmob> FunnyLookinHat, Dell D410
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, OH GROSS
[06:14] <soundray> rami-: stop the X server with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> Tmob, there's your problem.  : )   It could very well be the Dell motherboard
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> 's integration with the graphics
[06:14] <Tmob> hmm?
[06:14] <Tmob> are they infamous already?
[06:14] <Tmob> hehe
[06:14] <ghostinshell> Is there a graphical tool to configure SAMBA?
[06:14] <rami-> what
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> I've had better luck with my IBM than Dell, that's for sure.  : )
[06:14] <rami-> happen
[06:14] <rami-> NO
[06:15] <rami-> i broke it
[06:15] <rami-> damn
[06:15] <lens> hey guys, I have a very important question... can I make a desktop privilages account that will absolutely NOT connect to the Internet?
[06:15] <FunnyLookinHat> rami-, ?    Please  don't flood the channel with emotional outbursts   : )
[06:15] <rami-> :[
[06:15] <rami-> its mean!
[06:15] <stefg> !enter
[06:15] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[06:15] <FunnyLookinHat> lens, I'm sure you can.  Try googling for restricting user accounts on linux
[06:16] <rami-> !enter
[06:16] <tyler_> can anyone help me with a problem I have
[06:16] <pitfall> hmmm
[06:16] <soundray> !anyone
[06:16] <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?
[06:16] <pitfall> it is working ;)
[06:16] <Tmob> lens, i use windows in such an environment in a vmware VM
[06:16] <pitfall> nice
[06:16] <pitfall> I'm back to dapper=)
[06:16] <Spec> lens: hmm, interesting problem, that's one i've never worked on
[06:16] <rami-> damn i need to add Fluxbox into my GDM
[06:16] <rami-> or kdm
[06:16] <Spec> lens: I don't now how you'd do it with iptables though, ...
[06:16] <FunnyLookinHat> tyler_, go ahead and ask the question, if someone knows the answer we'll help  : )
[06:17] <teknoprep> does gnome support transparencies?
[06:17] <teknoprep> like kde?
[06:17] <ratorro> hola
[06:17] <teknoprep> eye candy is nice
[06:17] <FunnyLookinHat> teknoprep, as far as I know, it only does if you install XGL and Compiz
[06:17] <stefg> rami-: it should be there automatically, could be that sudo dpkg-reconfigure fluxbox solves it
[06:18] <Spec> teknoprep: i think kde does fake transparency, is that true?
[06:18] <FunnyLookinHat> teknoprep, if you want help with that (it's cool once you get it! but can be  abear to install) try #ubuntu-xgl
[06:18] <lens> my scenario is... to keep stuff safe... I could have an account that would never connect to the internet, and then import docs that have passed the security test to this account... BUT, this account could still be compromised and they could get to any of my data... what about encrypting it in the non-internet account and THEN importing it?
[06:18] <teknoprep> Spec: no its true
[06:18] <Spec> teknoprep: so it'll render the application B behind application A?
[06:18] <Foobal> lens: eat more prozac, lens
[06:18] <tyler_> Ok, I cannot suspend right in my laptop. Every time I try it suspends correctly. but when I try to boot back up there is only a small box of visibility on my screen. I cannot access anything because all I see is the middle of the screen. The rest of the screen is black, so I have to restart my computer to get it working again
[06:18] <lens> Foobal, what?
[06:18] <teknoprep> Spec:  yes
[06:18] <Spec> teknoprep: or just be transparent through the desktop?
[06:18] <teknoprep> want a screenshot?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. I just realized this box actually has a floppy drive. :) what was the command to make a 'emergancy boot floppy' been ages since i last had a floppy drive.
[06:19] <Linuturk> is there a good system info summary program?
[06:19] <Spec> teknoprep: sure :), i dont use kde but that sounds cool -- i've always thought XGL or equivalent would be required
[06:19] <rami-> init 0
[06:19] <soundray> tyler_: have you tried switching to a text console with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and back with Alt-F7?
[06:19] <lens> Foobal seriously, I am VERY curious as to what you mean "eat more prozac"?
[06:20] <tyler_> no, I will try that, but will I have to do that every time i suspend it
[06:20] <teknoprep> Spec: http://wowpvp.hopto.org/snapshot1.png
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> prozac = medicine for people with mental disorder.
[06:20] <teknoprep> hmm
[06:20] <teknoprep> i'll be back i need to install ubuntu
[06:20] <teknoprep> i am sick of kde
[06:21] <lens> hmm, that's a dumb thing to say... I'm into security.
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> i perfer kde.  :)
[06:21] <teknoprep> and sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop isn't working
[06:21] <teknoprep> kde blows
[06:21] <teknoprep> too many errors
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> people who say things blow, blow. :)
[06:21] <teknoprep> no it blows
[06:21] <soundray> tyler_: there is a way to automate that, by editing the appropriate resume script in /etc/acpi -- add "chvt 1; chvt 7" or similar in there.
[06:21] <teknoprep> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:21] <teknoprep>   ubuntu-desktop: Depends: libglib2.0-data but it is not going to be installed
[06:21] <FunnyLookinHat> teknoprep, we appreciate your oppinions but they belong in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> thats odd.. thats a MAIN library
[06:22] <teknoprep> thats the error i get when i try and install ... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop... from inside kubuntu
[06:22] <teknoprep> any idea?
[06:22] <gnomefreak> teknoprep: are you on dapper?
[06:22] <teknoprep> yup
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> perhaps a repo you are using has issues..

[06:23] <lens> "eat more prozac lens" isn't exactly on topic... I have a legit question
[06:23] <h3sp4wn> thearpoc: cdrecord is pretty good
[06:23] <teknoprep> k3b

[06:24] <Spec> teknoprep: that's pretty damned cool, i wonder why gnome doesn't support it :)
[06:25] <Spec> teknoprep: perhaps because they are counting on XGL
[06:25] <theapoc> h3sp4wn: Thats right
[06:25] <teknoprep> Spec: you can also set it to lower trans when its innactive and stuff like that
[06:25] <teknoprep> Spec: so i have it at 20% when innactive and 75% when active
[06:25] <Spec> teknoprep: unfortunately once XGL becomes the standard, the minimum sys reqs go way up

[06:26] <Paradoxx> soundray: isn't that move?
[06:26] <Paradoxx> soundray: well, i guess they coudl do the same thing.... thx

[06:29] <Dr_Willis> rami-,  whenyou apt-get install it - ht should add an entry.

[06:39] <usama> SanketMedhi: no, its not highlighting my name :(
[06:40] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: there has to be an INSTALL or README in the package
[06:40] <Knightlust> great, are they on the repository too? so i could just apt them.
[06:40] <SanketMedhi> usama: it does if someone take your name and your on a different tab

[06:40] <SanketMedhi> Knightlust: I think so
[06:40] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: it uses a DRI or DRM somthing
[06:41] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: no readmes
[06:41] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: is there any text file in it?
[06:41] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: read it!

[06:42] <PORDO> i need to read that text.
[06:42] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: there is install.sh if that what ur looking for
[06:43] <SanketMedhi> usama: Gaim is an all in one client. X-chat is dedicated to IRC. Its good, worth a try. Comes with all standard distros pre-installed.

[06:43] <SanketMedhi> np
[06:44] <SanketMedhi> lol
[06:44] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: its a DRI driver, i press enter to continue, then it asks me if i want to install or uninstall. i press 1 for install and it just closes
[06:44] <SanketMedhi> I like Gaim because of the keyboard shortcuts and the integrated-ness
[06:44] <h3sp4wn> teknoprep: i expect you are using xgl or other unofficial repositories remove them and force downgrade some stuff and you will be fine (you won't have any trouble because you already know bsd and solaris well)

[06:48] <fdr> stefg, do you mean that the vmware kernel module needs to be recompiled, or that it won't work at all?
[06:48] <kryme> Or even a difficult way to remaster, as long as there's a web page explaining it.
[06:48] <gregg__> kryme, maybe slax is more suitable for that
[06:48] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: stefg: i dont know anything about kernel compilation and have never tried to compile a new kernel
[06:48] <SanketMedhi> kryme: Slax rules!
[06:49] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: what is you're problem exactly?
[06:49] <stefg> I updated, noticed that vmmon and vmnet are not there, and subsequently failed to build the vmplayer modules with module-assistant... so went back to -25
[06:49] <skavenge> kryme; http://lichota.net/~krzysiek/projects/ubuntu-livecd-customization/
[06:49] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: im trying to install the official linux drivers for my intel integrated graphics card from intels website
[06:49] <SanketMedhi> stefg: I don't think that is a problem with the updates
[06:49] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: all that was available for my card was a .tar and .rpm
[06:49] <kryme> I don't have issue with slax, and I'd be glad to try to use it personally, but I'm just trying to make a custom server Ubuntu installation.
[06:50] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: what make?
[06:50] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: 845g
[06:50] <SanketMedhi> kryme: do you know there already is?
[06:50] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: what error do you get when you run ./install.sh /
[06:50] <SanketMedhi> ?
[06:50] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17933
[06:50] <anders_> what is the problem, i cant drag items..?
[06:50] <SanketMedhi> ok
[06:51] <stefg> SanketMedhi: no it's a problem with a sensible release quality control :-\ kernel -26 was put in the repos before all the modules were working, but i guess, that's just a matter of time
[06:51] <SanketMedhi> hmm
[06:51] <kryme> SanketMedhi: Customized to my needs, not a generic server installation.
[06:51] <kryme> skavenge: Thanks for the link.
[06:51] <SanketMedhi> ok
[06:51] <skavenge> np hope it helps
[06:52] <tailsfan> If you install the driver for a soundcard with WINE, will it enable sound for Ubuntu?
[06:52] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: do this, and try again, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential , this will take a lotaa time :)
[06:52] <stefg> wine won't install drivers, no way
[06:52] <Spec> tailsfan: no
[06:52] <tailsfan> Dang
[06:52] <SanketMedhi> tailsfan: no :_
[06:52] <SanketMedhi> :)
[06:52] <tailsfan> NVM
[06:52] <jeff_> lol
[06:52] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: ok
[06:52] <SanketMedhi> ?
[06:52] <vorbote> kryme: you need to create your own preseed file and remaster the server CD. The method is described somehwere in the Debian Policy Manual (http://www.debian.org/docs/)
[06:52] <tailsfan> Thought that would have worked
[06:52] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: you need kernel sources to compile drivers, that why
[06:53] <SanketMedhi> tailsfan: what card is it?
[06:53] <tailsfan> and I'm also having probs running AIM with WINE
[06:53] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: gotcha
[06:53] <kryme> vorbote: Thanks.
[06:53] <tailsfan> ESS 1869 Audiodrive
[06:53] <cytrak> anyone here has ubuntu running on a soekris board ?
[06:53] <Spec> tailsfan: why not use 'gaim'?
[06:53] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: its done
[06:53] <Foobal> tailsfan: may I ask why your are using aim on wine? gaim works
[06:53] <Spec> tailsfan: or the aim client for linux, as i believe they have one ....
[06:53] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: what?
[06:53] <PORDO> tailsfan aim is propriety.  consider jabber.
[06:53] <tailsfan> I tried to compile and install alsa, but even Iwhen I instaleed teh linux-headers, it did''nt worked
[06:54] <lordhedgie> Quick question -- how do I set the hostname on a box WITHOUT an GUI?
[06:54] <SanketMedhi> tailsfan: try Gaim, its good
[06:54] <mlehrer> i'm trying to imagine what it is going to be like maintaining a 2.6.15 kernel for 5 stinkin years
[06:54] <lordhedgie> I've broken my XWindows by changing the hostname to blank by accident (meant to blank the domain name)
[06:54] <ciaron> how do i run an app at a lower priority than everything else?
[06:54] <acuster> hey all, why would nm-applet tell me "No network devices have been found", since I'm obviously connected (via wireless)?
[06:54] <stefg> lordhedgie: /etc/hostname and edit /etc/hosts
[06:54] <lordhedgie> Thanks
[06:54] <mlehrer> the kernel was out of date before Dapper was released
[06:54] <tailsfan> I use Gaim, but my brother kept on asking me to get the AIM Client
[06:54] <Linuturk> i've got a 3 button mouse, but I foolishly selected "Emulate Three button mouse" Where do I go to fix this without reconfiguring Xserver completely?
[06:54] <teknoprep> for you interests in music... http://64.62.253.223:8040  is a great f'n stream
[06:55] <SanketMedhi> lordhedgie: do it in init 1
[06:55] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: i copied your cammand and it finished already, i tried the isntall.sh again but it didnt work. i got the same error
[06:55] <Spec> tailsfan: use the linux AIM client
[06:55] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: check if you have the 'restricted modules' package for your kernel installed using Synaptic
[06:55] <Spec> tailsfan: use wine as little as possible -- it's not as good as native code
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> Linuturk,  edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf - there should be a line about emulate 3 buttons = yes, change it to no
[06:56] <fowlduck> ya
[06:57] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: try this, sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[06:57] <squee> hey, My shutdown (including sudo shutdown now) wont fully turn off the pc. Harddrives are off but the screen and fans are still on. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks
[06:57] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: that was my last try
[06:57] <SanketMedhi> :)
[06:57] <Linuturk> Dr_Willis, i'll have to restart X, right?
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> Linuturk,  that file is only read when x starts up.. so correct.
[06:58] <Linuturk> Dr_Willis, how do I restart Xserver w/o losing my current work (windows) ?
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> Linuturk,  BACKUP your existing config file.
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> Linuturk,  you dont.
[06:58] <Spec> Linuturk: you don't :-/
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> :)
[06:58] <samuli> I need help setting up simple natting with two ethernet cards.
[06:58] <Linuturk> Dr_Willis, mmk, well, I can remember the simple true to false change
[06:58] <ketetha_> can you help me
[06:58] <skavenge> you can get most of it back if you turn on 'automatically save session' under Sessions .. some programs work with it, some dont
[06:58] <Linuturk> i guess I'll just restart
[06:58] <Spec> Linuturk: think of it in a better way though: in windows you'd have to reboot to do anything, in linux all you have to do is restart the x server :o)
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> Linuturk,  unless ya totally screw up the editor. :)  it PAYS to keep several backups (i date mine) with my changes
[06:59] <ketetha_> i installed gdeskcal :sudo apt-get install gdeskcal: itworked and installed but i cant find it
[06:59] <Spec> Dr_Willis: you keep backups too?
[06:59] <ketetha_> ketetha_ how can i run something from the terminal?
[06:59] <Spec> Dr_Willis: we are definitely the few
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> I had to reboot windows last night to finish a game install.. (just for the lame copy protection)
[06:59] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: how are you today?
[06:59] <squee> hey, My shutdown (including sudo shutdown now) wont fully turn off the pc. Harddrives are off but the screen and fans are still on. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks
[06:59] <PanicFo> where can i see items moved to the garbage bin?
[06:59] <Linuturk> ok
[06:59] <snowblink> squee, can your PSU do soft shutdowns?
[06:59] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: Accessories >> Calculator
[06:59] <Axis-> I'm so confused... i ordered the 10 pack and i got 10 ubuntu cd's all the exact same only with the demo programs on them like firefox, gaim... etc
[06:59] <Spec> squee: do you do:  sudo shutdown -h now?
[06:59] <Linuturk> well, it's control + alt + backspace correct?
[06:59] <stefg> squee: Didn't we go through that before?
[06:59] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, whats that going to do? haha
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> ?
[07:00] <skavenge> PanicFo; double click the trash can
[07:00] <Linuturk> then startx if it doesn't come back up automatically
[07:00] <ketetha_> squee, did you fix your problem?
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> Axis-,  thats a feature of the live cd. for windows users to test out.. they are bootable.
[07:00] <Linuturk> right?
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> Axis-,  reboot with cd in the drive.. goes to the live cd
[07:00] <PanicFo> Axis- : that cd is both a livecd and an install cd
[07:00] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, im goood :)
[07:00] <PanicFo> :)
[07:00] <sri_> what i should to do prog in mysql
[07:00] <Spec> Linuturk: no
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: :)
[07:00] <squee> stefg yeah we did, im back from work now and it didnt work sorry!
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> sri_: what
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> ?
[07:00] <PanicFo> lol ofcourse
[07:00] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, you told me to go to the calculater
[07:00] <Spec> Linuturk: ctrl+alt+backspace, and do /etc/init.d/gdm restart if it doesn't come back, give it a minute before you do that
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> its 3 in one cd.. Live cd, installer cd, and examples of GPL stuff for windows data cd.
[07:00] <Axis-> alright so if i put it in and reboot it will let me install the desktop?
[07:00] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, hows your day going
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: yeah so
[07:00] <Linuturk> ok
[07:00] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, haha what do i do there
[07:00] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: its nite here :P
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> and yes - i think putting that stuff on there for windows - is a lame idea. :)
[07:00] <sri_> SanketMedhi, about data base management programs
[07:01] <Spec> Dr_Willis: no it's not
[07:01] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, oohh no. i thoguth gdeskcal was a CALENDER.
[07:01] <stefg> squee: so paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[07:01] <SanketMedhi> sri_: what exactly do you need to do?
[07:01] <Spec> Dr_Willis: i gave out ~2000 cds at a convention the other week, and it's convenient to tell them to put that in a windows drive to "explore opensource software"
[07:01] <Spec> Dr_Willis: printed CDs are good for converting people -- the previously converted just download the ISOs
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> Spec,  yes it is. :P since by the time its out - its allready out of date.. and if i wanted such a thing - id give out that "Open CD" :) but wait.. isent it a live cd now also.
[07:01] <sri_> SanketMedhi, i want to do sql programs in the terminal
[07:01] <stefg> squee: and while you're at it paste the output of 'dmesg' as well
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> Spec,  convert or die! You Windows Heathen! works for me.
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> :P
[07:01] <Spec> Dr_Willis: we had some copies of the OpenCD as well :)
[07:01] <ketetha_> !info gdeskcal

[07:02] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[07:02] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: oh ok sorry :P
[07:02] <snowblink> squee, do you have AT hardware?
[07:02] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, haha wahts that going to do?
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> whats sad - i dont even want or use openoffice. :P
[07:02] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, its okkk :)
[07:02] <Spec> why not?
[07:02] <Spec> vim?
[07:02] <skavenge> ketetha_; it might not have added it to the menu, open a terminal and type 'gdeskcal'
[07:02] <Axis-> so are all 10 of these ubuntu cd's the exact same?
[07:02] <h3sp4wn> Dr_Willis: Me neither bloated waste of space
[07:02] <Spec> Axis-:  if you ordered 10 ubuntu cds, then yes :p
[07:02] <sri_> SanketMedhi, in the synaptic manager there is several mysql packages which i should install?
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> id rather see the live cd come with both gnome and kde (blasphmy!)
[07:02] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: ALT+F2 , gdeskcal
[07:02] <Axis-> lol alright
[07:02] <Spec> Dr_Willis: blasphemy!
[07:02] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, okk thanks :)

[07:03] <SanketMedhi> ketetha_: its a cool applet
[07:03] <Spec> Axis-: i'd suggest you find 9 people who you want to convert and hand them out :)
[07:03] <ketetha_> SanketMedhi, whats alt + f2 do
[07:03] <ulisse> hello
[07:03] <Spec> damn it, i hate it when they quit right as i tell them something :-/

[07:03] <Spec> that's twice today :p
[07:03] <SanketMedhi> Spec: hehe
[07:03] <stefg> Dr_Willis: Brilliant Idea.... so we're going to invnet teh 1.4 G CD.... a revolution :-)

[07:11] <LTjake> hi. i've recently installed dapper on my dell d620. i can't seem to get my windows key to work. under system->preferences->keyboard->layouts tab the keyboard model says "unknown" -- i assume this is part of the problem. thanks in advance for any help.
[07:11] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17941
[07:11] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: no, they are not. how can i fix it?
[07:11] <SanketMedhi> ok

[07:12] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: yes
[07:12] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: this is exactly what it says in device manager
[07:12] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: Sure, standby.
[07:13] <qwertybob> i need some help after upgrade im not getting good screens
[07:13] <papo> is there documentation around similar to http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities wich describes the meaning of tags and severity for bugs
[07:13] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE/PE DRAM
[07:13] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: ok
[07:13] <qwertybob> i upgraded cpu to amd64, now on reboot my display is all broken
[07:13] <Linuturk> where does Ubuntu stand with tablet features? Handwriting recognition? Pen recognition?
[07:14] <skavenge> wacoms work for sure, ive seen the howto
[07:14] <skavenge> never used one though
[07:14] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: did you install the restricted modules?
[07:15] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: it said it was already installed
[07:15] <Blink||> ok, can someone give me a link on how to upgrade from breezey to the latest?
[07:15] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: ok
[07:15] <qwertybob> is there some way to reinstall and keep all my home directory and settings
[07:15] <SanketMedhi> Blink||: gksudo update-manager -d
[07:15] <tamran> hello everyone
[07:15] <skavenge> !update
[07:15] <jeff_> Blink||: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade i think
[07:15] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[07:15] <tamran> I am a new Ubuntu convert from Gentoo
[07:16] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: copy your home dir somewhere and then dump it!
[07:16] <SanketMedhi> tamran: congrats! :P
[07:16] <tamran> of course, I still use gentoo on my other system
[07:16] <SanketMedhi> hehe
[07:16] <tamran> this is almost as easy as an iMac to set up
[07:16] <qwertybob> SanketMedhi: you mean just copy it to like usb or something?
[07:16] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: sure
[07:16] <Blink||> it doesnt say anything about upgrading, only that it is up to date
[07:17] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: copy the contents of /home/user not the dir /home
[07:17] <skavenge> !update > Blink||
[07:17] <qwertybob> SanketMedhi: everything was working well until i replaced the mobo and chip with AMD 64
[07:17] <sri_> qwertybob, or u can make a directory & u can mount it
[07:17] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: http://www.amnet.net.au/~dodj/screenshot.png
[07:17] <tamran> here's a silly question ... when I install a new font set (such as artwiz fonts), do I have to restart X to use them?
[07:17] <qwertybob> SanketMedhi: ive tried fixing the screen, reinstalling nvidia-glx. dpkg reconfiugre , vesa
[07:17] <SanketMedhi> tamran: worth a try :P
[07:18] <qwertybob> it doesnt like my via chip or something
[07:18] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: you changed your CPU? :O
[07:18] <tamran> well, it was more of a question regardign setup, the other more "manual" distros you have to.  Just curious if they've set anything like that up?
[07:18] <skavenge> qwertybob; your more than likely going to need a fresh install .. no OS likes you changing cpus, mobos, etc without reinstalling
[07:18] <qwertybob> SanketMedhi: yes
[07:18] <sri_> SanketMedhi, it is better to move the content into another partition & we can upgrade ot
[07:18] <Stormx2> !xorg
[07:18] <sri_> SanketMedhi, i think
[07:18] <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
[07:18] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: wrong!
[07:18] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: I am trying to grow the size of /dev/hda3
[07:18] <samuli> C'mon couldn't anyone help me out with a natting problem?
[07:18] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: skavenge is right1
[07:19] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: gimme the link of where you download that drivers from
[07:19] <qwertybob> skavenge: does that go for winbloas part. too
[07:19] <SanketMedhi> samuli: explain
[07:19] <qwertybob> SanketMedhi: do i need the 64 bit version or can i run same?
[07:19] <derrickh> does anyone know why update-notifier reopens itself when i close it?
[07:19] <skavenge> qwertybob; especially windows unfortunetly .. ive never done that in linux but running windows i did and it took a complete reinstall to work
[07:19] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: you want to extend hda3 to the free space on the left?
[07:19] <samuli> SanketMedhi, it's really basic. two static ip's xbox and computer with two ethernet cards.
[07:20] <SanketMedhi> qwertybob: installing an amd64 version is recommended
[07:20] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: Yes, as you can see there is 11gb free (I removed my windows NTFS partition) and I want to use that empty space in my /dev/hda3
[07:20] <samuli> SanketMedhi, I'm not sure what I should put for gateway/dns the local network card and xbox
[07:20] <qwertybob> thanks
[07:20] <samuli> SanketMedhi, does it even matter?
[07:20] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: you can't do that, the free space has to be next to the one you want to resizw
[07:21] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: ok, but how do I make it next to it? I am unsure what I can do...
[07:21] <SanketMedhi> samuli: you just want to set up a two device network?
[07:21] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: make a new partition out of the free space and mount it somewhere
[07:21] <skavenge> you are going to run into issues on 64 bit ubuntu with java, flash, etc .. something to think about .. the standard version will run fine on a 64 bit system as well
[07:21] <SanketMedhi> not really
[07:21] <samuli> SanketMedhi, I want to nat my xbox throught my pc.
[07:22] <SanketMedhi> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[07:22] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: I was worried that would be my only option.. :( if I were to install ubuntu from scratch then would it be possible to re-configure all of the partitions correctly?
[07:22] <SanketMedhi> skavenge: see that link
[07:22] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: you don't neeed to do that
[07:22] <HorzA> how can i see what folders that are over 10 days old in console?
[07:22] <skavenge> SanketMedhi, i know of the workarounds its still troublesome for people though
[07:22] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: where exactly do you think you need more space?
[07:22] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: I need more space on /dev/hda3 which is my main OS partition for ubuntu
[07:22] <SanketMedhi> skavenge: not really, I have links for all problems :)
[07:23] <derrickh> can update-notifier be removed from the Windows List?  i tried closing it but it reopens rigt after i close it
[07:23] <baseball0081> I have a problem.....on my other computer i try to load ubuntu and when it gets to mounting root file system my it gets the error (buffer I/O error on device hdd
[07:23] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: format the free space as ext3 and mount it on some directory which you think requires more space, for eg. /var
[07:23] <skavenge> SanketMedhi, *shrug* i dont have a 64 bit system so i wouldnt know, we get alot of questions regarding that in here though
[07:23] <SanketMedhi> baseball0081: maybe your hdd is corrupt
[07:24] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: yes I will do that, thanks for your help. It's not the ideal situation and it's a bit messy but it is my only option so I will have to do that. Thanks again :)
[07:24] <SanketMedhi> skavenge: ok there are enough links on UbuntuForums.org
[07:24] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: np, be sure to keep your partitions clean :)
[07:24] <baseball0081> SanketMedhi: does that mean my cd is screwed up
[07:24] <skavenge> SanketMedhi, thats assuming people will take the time to read ;)
[07:24] <SanketMedhi> baseball0081: HDD = HardDisk Drive
[07:25] <Bonez> SanketMedhi: I just came across from windows so it's been a bit of a nightmare, when I reformat and install ubuntu from scratch i will organise it much better :)
[07:25] <SanketMedhi> skavenge: they do spend time coming here ;)
[07:25] <SanketMedhi> skavenge: there is no use of using an AMD64 if your not gonna use it
[07:25] <SanketMedhi> Bonez: best luck ;
[07:25] <SanketMedhi> ;)
[07:25] <baseball0081> SanketMedhi:  how do a know if it is
[07:25] <skavenge> SanketMedhi, oh they have no problem wasting time here, but are insulted if you point them at a webpage heh. not good.

[07:29] <sri_> SanketMedhi, u know where the discussion takes place?
[07:29] <baseball0081> skavenge: booting the live cd
[07:30] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> does anyone know how i can install thunderbird?
[07:30] <SanketMedhi> baseball0081: you can't even the live cd?
[07:30] <KJ-ro> hi there....
[07:30] <skavenge> baseball0081, try booting with ide=nodma in grub
[07:30] <SanketMedhi> Echodrive-Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install thunderbird
[07:30] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> doesnt work
[07:30] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> stupid apt-get wont do anything
[07:30] <KJ-ro> how could i mount an ext3 fs with write permision to all ... at boot ?
[07:30] <SanketMedhi> Echodrive-Ubuntu: apt-get is not stupid
[07:30] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> it took me like 3 hrs to figure out why my floppy wont work
[07:30] <sri_> SanketMedhi, what is the process??
[07:30] <KJ-ro> Echodrive: go in main menu
[07:30] <baseball0081> skavenge
[07:31] <baseball0081> skavenge: how do i do that.. im a complete noob
[07:31] <KJ-ro> Echodrive: and use add/remove application
[07:31] <SanketMedhi> Echodrive-Ubuntu: open synaptic, edit the prefs to enable disabled repositories
[07:31] <SanketMedhi> Echodrive-Ubuntu: yeah you can do that too
[07:31] <sri_> can any one tell the chat takes place on python(i try #python )but it is displaying a message that u have entered into a wrog location

[07:32] <sri_> SanketMedhi, no
[07:32] <anders_> anyone that is good at xubuntu here?
[07:32] <skavenge> baseball0081, i believe you just hit escape when the screen loads up to pick if you want to load the cd, etc, then add ide=nodma to the line
[07:33] <SanketMedhi> !freenode
[07:33] <ubotu> freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[07:33] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> add applications did not work either
[07:33] <sri_> SanketMedhi, ya i am asking about this type of discussion....
[07:33] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> get this message The application can not be found in your archive. This usually means that it is not available for your hardware plattform.
[07:33] <baseball0081> skavenge: ok
[07:33] <SanketMedhi> sri_: go to http://freenode.net/faq.shtml and get urself regged
[07:33] <sri_> SanketMedhi, k 1m

[07:38] <SanketMedhi> has anyone tried Horde?
[07:38] <papo> SanketMedhi: we are using horde, though not related to ubuntu
[07:39] <SanketMedhi> papo: I gave installing it. it has So many dependencies
[07:39] <ketsugi> Does Gnome have a font manager?
[07:39] <SanketMedhi> gave up*
[07:39] <CokeNCode> quick question guys, i was downloading something with lynx ... having ssh'd into my pc at home, however, i lost my connection and the download got cancelled. What software can I use so that i can keep stuff running when i ssh, even if i lose my connection ?
[07:39] <SanketMedhi> ketsugi: try System>>Prefs>>Fonts
[07:40] <ketsugi> nah, that my font preferences
[07:40] <polpak> SanketMedhi, for web development frameworks, I prefer the pythonic ones.. php is so ugly
[07:40] <ketsugi> I want to manage my font library
[07:40] <papo> SanketMedhi: I don't know about the packages, but native horde needs wenserver, php, a database and some pear stuff and that's it
[07:40] <Stormx2> Program is asking me to move a program to a bin directory, suggests usr/local/bin, but this doesn't exist apparently. Where should I move it instead?
[07:40] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: lol ok
[07:40] <skavenge> CokeNCode; 'screen' possibly
[07:40] <papo> CokeNCode: use screen or nohup
[07:40] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: tell me how it goes for you'
[07:40] <SanketMedhi> papo: the perl modules required are too many
[07:41] <papo> SanketMedhi: huh? why does it need perl?
[07:41] <CokeNCode> skavenge is there at an 'apt-get' for that ?
[07:41] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: I won't install it , just check the code
[07:41] <skavenge> CokeNCode; should be yes
[07:41] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: it came out in '04, so it might need some older modules or seomthing
[07:41] <papo> CokeNCode: the package is called 'screen' as the binary is
[07:41] <CokeNCode> skavenge ... ok, thanks
[07:41] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: ok hold on
[07:41] <CokeNCode> i'll disconnect and search for it
[07:41] <godtvisken> Can I search for a package using apt-get or some other commandline tool?
[07:42] <papo> godtvisken: you can use apt-cache search <pattern>
[07:42] <ketsugi> godtvisken: apt-cache search packagename
[07:42] <godtvisken> search for one in the repository
[07:42] <jeff_> godtvisken: yeah, apt-cache search
[07:42] <godtvisken> thanks
[07:42] <SanketMedhi> godtvisken: sudo apt-get search
[07:42] <SanketMedhi> yeah same thing
[07:42] <godtvisken> hehe thanks all
[07:42] <jeff_> godtvisken: nop
[07:42] <SanketMedhi> godtvisken: thrz also something called adept
[07:42] <middleclass> how do I exit xserver and keep it from relaunching?
[07:42] <godtvisken> SanketMedhi, ?
[07:42] <SanketMedhi> godtvisken: it has a good interface
[07:42] <Carmen-> Does ANYONE happen to have some good: root-tail dmesg command examples???
[07:42] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> SanketMedhi thnx mate,, apt-get is now installing thunderbird
[07:43] <godtvisken> ok
[07:43] <SanketMedhi> Echodrive-Ubuntu: np
[07:43] <jeff_> godtvisken: he means that you can also use Adept package manager to search for packages
[07:44] <yum> Hello, I want to have a different grub splash screen. I entered this line in the menue.lst: "splashimage=(hd0,0) /boot/grub/screens/frag.xpm.gz ". But it doesn't work. This are my other entries in the menue.lst: "root		(hd0,4), kernel		/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-386 root=/dev/hde9 ro quiet splash". The boot partition is on: "/dev/hde5               188168    32146    145983  19% /boot"
[07:44] <Some_Person> Is there any way to get my Conexant HSF modem on the net for free without 14.4 kbps capping?
[07:45] <Stormx2> any ideas what I could do to solve this: tempest_for_mp3: mp3player.cpp:134: int main(int, char**): Assertion `input != __null' failed.
[07:46] <thomas_> hi
[07:46] <valehru> !vncserver
[07:46] <ubotu> I know nothing about vncserver - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[07:46] <valehru> !vnc
[07:46] <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.
[07:46] <thomas_> someone here knows how to configure the Desktop under ubuntu Dapper
[07:47] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: i can also pastebin the dri.log if that helps
[07:47] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: no its fine
[07:47] <fdsd> is ubuntu bigger than gentoo yet?
[07:47] <polpak> thomas_, define "configure the Desktop" ?
[07:47] <Dial_tone> I need a command line mass id3 tagger
[07:47] <Some_Person> God I hate my modem!!!
[07:47] <Ramunas> fdsd: by the number of users?
[07:47] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: I think its some prob with the package itself
[07:47] <fdsd> Ramunas, yeah
[07:48] <Some_Person> Capped at 14.4kbps unless I pay Linuxant $20
[07:48] <thomas_> what devices are shown on the desktop
[07:48] <Dial_tone> fdsd, distrowatch.org
[07:48] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: should i try to use alien and install the rpm?
[07:48] <Ramunas> fdsd: it's the most popular distro :P
[07:48] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> lol what is linuxant?
[07:48] <n0l0nX> ciao
[07:48] <Some_Person> Linuxant is non-free Conexant modem drivers
[07:48] <polpak> thomas_, devices like?
[07:48] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> MUHUAHAHA
[07:49] <geeksauce> Some_Person, are you on dial-up?
[07:49] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> thats f**ed up
[07:49] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> they should let you use any o/s you want
[07:49] <col-panic> conexant... im sure there's a free driver somewhere
[07:49] <Some_Person> Linuxant charges $20 to use their driver
[07:49] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: I don't think it will work but you can give it a shot
[07:49] <thomas_> my partitions or the CD-Rom etc.
[07:49] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: also make a post at UbuntuForums.org
[07:49] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> go cable
[07:49] <col-panic> Some_Person, look around more, that's a scam
[07:49] <jeff_> will do
[07:49] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: will do
[07:49] <Some_Person> No, Linuxant is  division of Conexant
[07:50] <Some_Person> Conexant made the modem
[07:50] <col-panic> Echodrive-Ubuntu, cable companies are stupid. they surround my area, but won't go up my street.
[07:50] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> yer just do a search for a linux driver for a conexant modem
[07:50] <col-panic> Some_Person, I gather that. I'm not 12.
[07:50] <geeksauce> Some_Person, is it dial-up access though?
[07:50] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> you shouldnt have to pay for something like that
[07:50] <col-panic> ^^ i agree
[07:50] <Some_Person> Dial Up
[07:50] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> you already paid for the modem
[07:50] <Some_Person> exactly
[07:50] <col-panic> I have an intel 536ep, and my linux driver was free :|
[07:50] <col-panic> Intel's a bigger co. too, youd think THEYD charge but they dont.
[07:50] <synd2> Does Ubuntu work with AOL dialup?
[07:51] <SanketMedhi> jeff_: do you have the CD which came with your hardware , try that too
[07:51] <geeksauce> i have never once heard of having to pay for a driver.
[07:51] <CokeNCode> ok, i downloaded screen and installed it, so i typed 'screen lynx' and started the download ... now what do i do ? if i close the session will it continue to download ? how do i switch between virtual terminals ?
[07:51] <CokeNCode> :S
[07:51] <SanketMedhi> synd2: I am sure you can make it work
[07:51] <jeff_> SanketMedhi: no, i got this computer second hand
[07:51] <geeksauce> Some_Person, can't you just use a different modem?
[07:51] <Some_Person> no
[07:51] <marky> hi guys, anyone know where the joystick settings are in the menu?
[07:52] <Ensiferum> how can i revert to an older kernel?
[07:52] <geeksauce> why not?
[07:52] <Some_Person> unfortunately, this is the fastest modem i've ever used in windows
[07:52] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: modems are cheap now :)
[07:52] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> lol,, i called up bigpond (my provider) and asked if it is compatible with linux systems,, and he said no.. until i found bpalogin, lol
[07:52] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: modems are not fast :P
[07:52] <Ensiferum> theres only 2.6.15 in synaptic for dapper :/
[07:52] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: ?
[07:52] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: ?
[07:52] <Ramunas> how do i get back add/remove apps in my Applications menu, its gone
[07:52] <col-panic> Some_Person, I paid $1 each for my 536eps at a comp 'bargain bin'
[07:52] <TheStonepedo> i'd like to use a script to make my ubuntu box automatically occasionally 1)soft reset my router using its webpage interface. 2)stop and restart apache2 and 3)run ddclient
[07:52] <colk> ew modems
[07:52] <colk> to slow
[07:52] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: what, kernel?
[07:52] <colk> ;P
[07:52] <geeksauce> Some_Person, i'll be happy to send you a 56k modem with drivers for the cost of shipping.  i have a million of them laying around the house collecting dust.
[07:52] <LeaChim> Ramunas, go to applications, accessories, alacarte menu editor
[07:52] <TheStonepedo> is that a cron kind of thing?
[07:53] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> adsl has come down in price heaps,, just consider going broadband
[07:53] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: im using the one dapper. 2.6.15  i think
[07:53] <col-panic> ew if you are lucky enough to get cable service on your street
[07:53] <Ramunas> LeaChim: no such thing there
[07:53] <col-panic> i live on the right fork of this road, and the left fork gets cable :S
[07:53] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: I thought that was a question :)
[07:53] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: it is
[07:53] <LeaChim> Ramunas, open a terminal and type alacarte
[07:53] <col-panic> Some_Person,  listen to geeksauce that aint a bad deal
[07:53] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> col-panic: ask if you can wi-fi with your neighbour
[07:54] <Ensiferum> how do i get an older kernel thats not in the synaptic. do i just have to configure the synaptic to use older repo?
[07:54] <SanketMedhi> Ramunas: go to "System Tools> > Applications menu editor
[07:54] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> col-panic: or have a lan
[07:54] <col-panic> listen dummy Echodrive-Ubuntu . I said the RIGHT FORK on my road doesnt get cable
[07:54] <Some_Person> yeah, but i'm really stuck with this modem
[07:54] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: why do you want an older kernel/
[07:54] <SanketMedhi> ?
[07:54] <col-panic> the 'whole road' doesnt get it
[07:54] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: cause this is broken
[07:54] <anders_> how do i update mine xubuntu-desktop???
[07:54] <col-panic> the left fork is like 1000 yds. off
[07:54] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: what make you say that?
[07:54] <geeksauce> Some_Person, do you live in an area where DSL or cable or even ISDN isn't available?
[07:54] <kingruedi> hi
[07:54] <col-panic> you people dont listen :S
[07:54] <Ensiferum> endless abouts of PIO Error in my kernel log...
[07:55] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> col-panic you can get that much cable
[07:55] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: strange
[07:55] <Some_Person> My parents refuse to get me anything other than $10 dialup
[07:55] <col-panic> yeah ok, I'll go outside with a shovel and climb mountains while lugging 1000 ft. of cable and hope no one calls the cops

[07:56] <Ensiferum> ata2: translated ATA stat/err 0x51/24 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/00/00
[07:56] <Ramunas> SanketMedhi: I'm in that editor, but there's no such entry in it, i mean add/remove pps
[07:56] <Ensiferum> thats the shit i get
[07:56] <Ensiferum> seems to be a problem in 2.6.15
[07:56] <Ensiferum> libata of course
[07:56] <Ensiferum> (like before)
[07:56] <CokeNCode> ok cool, cntrl + a switches windows ...
[07:56] <CokeNCode> how do i create a window ?
[07:56] <Ensiferum> support of 875P chipset seems to be hard to come by!
[07:56] <SanketMedhi> Ramunas: right click on the main menu, click Edit Menus
[07:57] <Hedgie> Anyone know what it means when SUDO fails, saying "Timestamp too far in future" ?
[07:57] <Hedgie> More importantly, how can I fix it? :)
[07:57] <gmoore> anyone know if ubuntu will run fine and play nice with an Abit NF7-S? any experiences with it?
[07:57] <SanketMedhi> Hedgie: what command?
[07:57] <Hedgie> SUDO itself.  Any command
[07:58] <Hedgie> Its only two hours in the future, so I'm tempted to wait it out and see what happens.
[07:58] <Ramunas> SanketMedhi: there's just no such option to enable it
[07:58] <Hedgie> But I don't know what timestamp SUDO is looking for.
[07:58] <bbrazil> Hedgie: try sudo -K
[07:58] <SanketMedhi> Hedgie: what is in the future?
[07:58] <SanketMedhi> Ramunas: did you find edit menus?
[07:58] <Some_Person> god i hate this modem driver
[07:58] <stefg> Hedgie: 'sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com' first
[07:59] <SanketMedhi> Hedgie: nothing
[07:59] <Hedgie> Brazil -- No help
[07:59] <Some_Person> i wish i could use the free windows driver in linux
[07:59] <SanketMedhi> hmm
[07:59] <Ramunas> SanketMedhi: yes, i mean i can edit everything but there's no add/remove apps option there
[07:59] <anders_> how do i update mine xubuntu-desktop???
[07:59] <bbrazil> Hedgie: I think I had to reboot to fix that
[07:59] <Hedgie> stefg -- one sec, I'l try
[07:59] <bbrazil> Hedgie: or wait two hours
[08:00] <jrib> Some_Person: just pay the 20 bucks imo
[08:00] <bbrazil> Hedgie: sudo keeps a timestamp of when it was last called. If you leave it for more than 5 minutes, you need to reenter your password
[08:00] <SanketMedhi> !alacarte
[08:00] <ubotu> I know nothing about alacarte - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:00] <Some_Person> no way the modem isn't worth $20
[08:00] <Hedgie> I'm installing NTP right now, we'll see if that works
[08:01] <Tommy2k4> how do i stop sendmail trying to open when i boot up, ive already did apt-get remove sendmail and rm /etc/init.d/sendmail but it still tries
[08:01] <jrib> Some_Person: then buy another modem?
[08:01] <stefg> Hedgie: that's just to keep the clock synchronized... bad battery, huh?
[08:01] <SAM_theman> How do I disable shift+backspave
[08:01] <Some_Person> i caant
[08:01] <asdasd> QUESTION: I'm looking for a way in which a small office (About ten users) could share e-mail contacts from one centralized lists.  I feel like LDAP is MORE then OVERKILL for this problem, any ideas?
[08:01] <rysiek|pl> hi there, guys
[08:01] <SAM_theman> from restarting X??
[08:01] <tamran> anyone here used xgl with any success?
[08:01] <jrib> Some_Person: how come?
[08:02] <Some_Person> with parents with linuxphoebia, how do i explain why i need a new one?
[08:02] <anders_> how do i update mine xubuntu-desktop???
[08:02] <SAM_theman> Yes
[08:02] <SAM_theman> Me
[08:02] <TheBonsai> sudo passwd root
[08:02] <jrib> Some_Person: explain the situation to them
[08:02] <SanketMedhi> asdasd: I think you can do that with Evolution, don't ask me how
[08:02] <geeksauce> Some_Person, seriously, i'll send you a modem for cost of shipping.
[08:02] <polpak> Some_Person, why would you be afraid of linux?? windows is much more scary
[08:03] <polpak> Some_Person, all the rootkits, virii, spyware, adware, etc
[08:03] <SanketMedhi> geeksauce: lol
[08:03] <stefg> asdasd: you could synchronize the evolution adressbook with a cron-job and rsync, if there's no realtime update necessary
[08:03] <Some_Person> my parents are bozoheads
[08:03] <nihilocrat> bozoheads
[08:03] <nihilocrat> haha
[08:03] <nihilocrat> pointy-haired
[08:03] <SanketMedhi> tamran: I have installed XGL with success and failure
[08:03] <rysiek|pl> got a strange issue here: upgraded from breezy to dapper yesternight (by changing "breezy" to "dapper" in sources.list and apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, as in DapperUpgrades in the wiki) and am trying to compile a few modules (ATI fglrx, dazuko, etc). the compilation goes well, but upon modprobing them I get "invalid arguments" error. any ideas?

[08:05] <kel> hi
[08:05] <anders_> anybody here that is GOOD AT XUBUNTU FFS
[08:05] <Some_Person> geeksauce: how do you know my name???
[08:05] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: you can make that much online :)
[08:05] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:05] <TheBonsai> Some_Person: you have an ident. moron.
[08:06] <kel> this my first time to be here
[08:06] <stefg> rysiek|pl: I must admit that not one of three boxes upgraded cleanly... this only seems to work in theory with the stock, unaltered sources.list. backup and do a clean reinstall of dapper would be my advice
[08:06] <Tommy2k4> anders_, #xubuntu
[08:06] <Some_Person> if mIRC worked on linux, i'd hide my ident
[08:06] <geeksauce> some_person, yeah, it's called /whois
[08:06] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: right click your name on the list and view info
[08:06] <[Ex0r] > !tell TheBonsai about language
[08:06] <TheBonsai> Some_Person: it works. man wine. also man <yourIRCclient>
[08:06] <TheBonsai> [Ex0r] : yes...
[08:06] <Tommy2k4> how do i stop sendmail trying to open when i boot up, ive already did apt-get remove sendmail and rm /etc/init.d/sendmail but it still tries
[08:07] <jchico> hello, how can I manually edit the monitor refresh rate? if I got to change the resolution it only gives me one option of 85Hz
[08:07] <Some_Person> if i were on mIRC i'd make my ident "SomePerson"
[08:07] <jchico> got = go
[08:07] <geeksauce> you can falsify your ident
[08:07] <rysiek|pl> stefg: ah, dammit. I upgraded cleanlye and neatly from Hoary to Breezy and A was OK. I don't really feel like having to fcuk around with all my different tiny but lovely changes here and there
[08:07] <derekS> Some_Person: what irc client are you using?
[08:07] <SanketMedhi> !xorg
[08:07] <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
[08:07] <TheBonsai> Some_Person: then switch to mIRC. it works fine under wine. or just read the manual of your IRC client - which is a far better idea
[08:07] <[Ex0r] > Some_Person, you can set your ident on xchat
[08:07] <SanketMedhi> !xorg > jchico
[08:07] <stefg> !info sysv-rc-conf > Tommy2k4
[08:07] <ubotu> sysv-rc-conf: SysV init runlevel configuration tool for the terminal. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.99-3 (dapper), package size 23 kB, installed size 104 kB
[08:08] <BHSPitMonkey> derekS, he's using gaim
[08:08] <Some_Person> I'm using Gaim
[08:08] <BHSPitMonkey> :)
[08:08] <skavenge> argh does anyone know how to get rid off that stupid red line on the xchat window when you switch tabs
[08:08] <TheBonsai> Some_Person: we all make mistakes.
[08:08] <Ensiferum> skavenge: yeah, use irssi
[08:08] <skavenge> blah
[08:08] <derekS> Some_Person: that would explain it, gaim isn't really a full featured irc client
[08:08] <Some_Person> Gaim is all that comes with Dappe
[08:08] <Some_Person> r
[08:08] <rysiek|pl> stefg: besides, I don't really have where to backup :/
[08:08] <Tommy2k4> E: Package sysv-rc-conf has no installation candidate
[08:08] <derekS> Some_Person: xchat does too, i believe
[08:08] <TheBonsai> skavenge: you can disable it (that's some reminder marker line IIRC)
[08:08] <BHSPitMonkey> Skaven, preferences, "Show Marker Line"
[08:08] <skavenge> i was using epic and the damn thing doesnt even have nick completion by default
[08:08] <ketilkn> Gaim is all right.
[08:08] <BHSPitMonkey> skavenge, rather
[08:09] <porkpie> guy's how do you stop and start daemons under unbutu ...I am trying to restart bacula
[08:09] <Some_Person> nope i dont have xchat
[08:09] <skavenge> thanks all
[08:09] <stefg> Dapper does cary the 'LTS' tag for a reason (Lots'a Trouble'n Sorrow)
[08:09] <TheStonepedo> irssi comes with dapper as well
[08:09] <SanketMedhi> who was asking about that Add Applications thing?
[08:09] <jchico> thanks, you guys think it's the monitor's fault that I hear a high frequency sound? I strongly believe that's the problem because if I switch to an all white window I can hear the change in pitches, my speakers are also near the monitor as well, so it's that a cause?
[08:09] <derekS> Some_Person: then install it
[08:09] <BHSPitMonkey> gaim is great for IM, but second rate as an IRC client
[08:09] <Some_Person> irssi is cli
[08:09] <porkpie> I am used to freebsd  ...not sure where to find the binary
[08:09] <Ensiferum> irssi  ftw
[08:09] <geeksauce> some_person, just install x-chat...it's in the repos
[08:10] <Some_Person> no, i'll install mIRC
[08:10] <kel> i needed help of how to install ubuntu server with cache
[08:10] <kel> please any body there that can help me
[08:10] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: xchat comes by default
[08:10] <Some_Person> i dont have it
[08:10] <TheStonepedo> Some_Person you can run a terminal window and run irssi in it.  it's a pretty good client and has a small footprint
[08:10] <geeksauce> some-person, whatever floats your boat
[08:10] <derekS> Some_Person: thats kinda dumb, but if you want to...
[08:10] <polpak> Some_Person, you can use xchat, or xchat-gnome
[08:10] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: go to Applications>>Internet and check
[08:10] <Some_Person> why is that dumb
[08:10] <BHSPitMonkey> Some_Person, I use xchat on windows, too, because mIRC is gross.
[08:10] <kel> any body there?
[08:10] <polpak> SanketMedhi, xchat isn't installed by default on dapper
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> BHSPitMonkey: you use windoze? :P
[08:11] <kel> help please
[08:11] <Some_Person> mIRC has some features i really like
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> kel: ask
[08:11] <derekS> Some_Person: there are better linux clients out there
[08:11] <stefg> !ask > kel
[08:11] <BHSPitMonkey> SanketMedhi, when I HAVE to ;)
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> !ask
[08:11] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:11] <BHSPitMonkey> but when I do, I use OSS
[08:11] <geeksauce> yeah, i do like being able to connect to multiple servers at once
[08:11] <polpak> kel, what is "ubuntu server with cache"
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> ?
[08:11] <kel> i was told this is where i get my needed help
[08:11] <bertu> Hey i am getting some poor sound..what shall i do?
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> kel: ask your question
[08:12] <sharms2> !tell kel about anyone
[08:12] <Ex0r> haha, mirc does work fine with wine!
[08:12] <sharms2> Ex0r: try exchat
[08:12] <SanketMedhi> bertu: double click on the volume manager, reduce PCM to around 60%, then try
[08:12] <derekS> Ex0r: did anyone say it didn't ?
[08:12] <bertu> where can i find volume manager|>
[08:12] <SanketMedhi> on the system tray
[08:13] <SanketMedhi> next to the date
[08:13] <Ex0r> derekS- nope, but had to see for myself. No errors during install or anything. Now I can get back to my mirc scripting :)
[08:13] <bertu> ok but i can see any pcm
[08:13] <Some_Person> how big is the d/l for WINE?
[08:13] <hope> lo guys, is dapper a rolling distro?! (in the vain of gentoo)
[08:13] <bertu> also i have a 5.1 surround and only from 2 spks sound us comeing
[08:14] <junkY_san> when i try to mount ntfs-partition with ntfs-fuse through fstab entry it says unkown filesystem. ntfsmount -o options /dev /mountpt runs perfectly
[08:14] <polpak> Some_Person, pretty small afaik
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> bertu: go to Edit >> Preferences
[08:14] <Avance> hello, is it possible to limit the download speed of apt-get or aptitude?
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> bertu: enable PCM
[08:14] <paniq>  script returned error exit status 102
[08:14] <narfmaster> Some_Person, 8.3 MBs
[08:14] <bertu> and...
[08:14] <bertu> ok
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> Avance: sont think so
[08:14] <Some_Person> dang
[08:14] <Tommy2k4> how do i stop sendmail trying to open when i boot up, ive already did apt-get remove sendmail and rm /etc/init.d/sendmail but it still tries, ive tried ksysv but sendmail isnt there at all
[08:14] <Some_Person> being on the internet capped at 14.4kbps is really annoying
[08:14] <Ex0r> Some_Person- took me like 2 mins to install it
[08:14] <Tommy2k4> something else must be causing it to open?
[08:14] <Ex0r> wow, they make 14.4 internet still !?
[08:15] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: is that 14.4 kilo BITS per second ?
[08:15] <Some_Person> yes
[08:15] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: lol!!!!!
[08:15] <narfmaster> Some_Person, only a 2 hour d/l at that speed ;)
[08:15] <Some_Person> no, its bytes
[08:15] <aLPHa_LeaK>  re
[08:15] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: good enough for IRC :P
[08:15] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: then its not that bad
[08:15] <asdasd> stefg: There are 10 clients that need to share the contacts (the clients are on mozilla thunderbird) Windows
[08:15] <Some_Person> when i'm on IRC  even Google times out
[08:16] <skavenge> haha ouch
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: what dload speed you get in KB ?
[08:16] <SimzI> Where can I download the widget factory
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:16] <BHSPitMonkey> 14,4kbps wouldn't be working for IRC
[08:16] <Some_Person> nothing better than 1.6kbps
[08:16] <geeksauce> some_person, is DSL available in your area?
[08:16] <BHSPitMonkey> that's about a character per second
[08:16] <bertu> SanketMedhi: see this please http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17944
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:16] <paniq> script returned error exit status 102 - i get this while upgrading samba
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> char per sec! :P
[08:16] <paniq> what shall i do?
[08:16] <Some_Person> occasionally my drivers capping thingy goes out and i get 9.0kbps, but it always fixes itself
[08:17] <SanketMedhi> paniq: don't panic!
[08:17] <SanketMedhi> :)
[08:17] <stefg> asdasd: my first thought would be putting the thunderbird profiles on a samba share and just symlinking the adressbook into each profile... but i don't know what happens if two people try to edit the addressbook at once
[08:17] <geeksauce> some_person, you are living in the stoneage, lol!  last time i used a 14.4 modem it was like 1996
[08:17] <Carmen-> WHERE IS UBUNTUS .XSESSION OR .XINITRC FILES?!?!?!?!
[08:18] <Some_Person> its ctually a 56kbps modem
[08:18] <SanketMedhi> bertu: try reducing all to 60%
[08:18] <sztanpet> in your home dir
[08:18] <bertu> ok
[08:18] <stefg> !caps
[08:18] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:18] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: then it can't be 14.4 kilo bytes per sec
[08:18] <Some_Person> but the linux driver for it i have to pay $20 to get full speed
[08:18] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: which country?
[08:18] <Some_Person> otherwise it caps at 14.4Kbps
[08:18] <Some_Person> USA
[08:18] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:19] <BHSPitMonkey> Some_Person, can't you just get a router and an ethernet card?
[08:19] <Some_Person> parents
[08:19] <SimzI> Can anybody tell me where to download the widget factory!?!!??!?!
[08:19] <Some_Person> they wont do it
[08:19] <geeksauce> that's the gayest thing i ever heard, some_person.  you should switch isp's.  even if you stick with dial-up.
[08:19] <FunnyLookinHat> CarlFK, you could try this:   sudo updatedb          locate .xsession       locate .xinitrc
[08:19] <[Ex0r] > Some_Person- Are you referring to linexant ?
[08:19] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:19] <FunnyLookinHat> Wooops
[08:19] <Some_Person> my parents are the problem
[08:19] <BHSPitMonkey> Some_Person, parents generally let you buy things with your own money
[08:19] <krism> Some_Person  is talking about some proprietary crap winmodem driver for linux.
[08:19] <FunnyLookinHat> Carmen-, you could try this:   sudo updatedb          locate .xsession       locate .xinitrc
[08:19] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: then switch parents :P
[08:19] <SanketMedhi> j/k
[08:19] <BHSPitMonkey> haha
[08:19] <Some_Person> lol
[08:19] <BHSPitMonkey> upgrade them :P
[08:19] <l_r> i am having problems with the cups server on localhost. it does not let me login in the admin page as root from localhost. any idea? (i am using the web interface)
[08:19] <BHSPitMonkey> their firmware is outdated
[08:20] <Some_Person> mine dont let me buy anything
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> BHSPitMonkey: whose, his parents?
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> :P
[08:20] <[Ex0r] > OMG, lol. Notepad comes default with wine ?
[08:20] <geeksauce> yeah, get the latest parent drivers, lol
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> hehe
[08:20] <newbie_> hi
[08:20] <BHSPitMonkey> SanketMedhi, yeah
[08:20] <[Ex0r] > I wonder if trillian will work with wine
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> [Ex0r] : why do you care, use leafpad1
[08:20] <newbie_> can anyone help me to configure dhcp?
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> !dhcp
[08:20] <ubotu> I know nothing about dhcp - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:20] <Some_Person> i sometimes wish i could trade in my parents
[08:20] <BHSPitMonkey> [Ex0r] , probably not the advanced features you want. just use gaim
[08:20] <newbie_> !dhcp
[08:20] <SanketMedhi> newbie_: go to http://help.ubuntu.com/community/ and search dhcp
[08:21] <geeksauce> newbie_, like on your router or what?  be more specific
[08:21] <charlesJacobs> hey I successfully installed my mobility radeon 9700 drivers and they work well with linux applications (I tested epsxe for glx status and it works quite well) but when I compile wine it won't run windows apps well at all. what should I do?
[08:21] <Some_Person> they treat me like a baby
[08:21] <Some_Person> they even speak in babytalk occasionally
[08:21] <nihilocrat> paniq: are you familiar with the standard apt-get munging procedures?
[08:21] <Stormx2> Anyone here used Tempest for Eliza?
[08:21] <SanketMedhi> charlesJacobs: you don't need to compile wine
[08:21] <[Ex0r] > Some_Person: how old are you ?
[08:21] <SanketMedhi> charlesJacobs: install the DEBs
[08:21] <Some_Person> 12
[08:21] <rysiek|pl> d'oh
[08:21] <SanketMedhi> lol!
[08:21] <[Ex0r] > lol, that would be why.
[08:21] <newbie_> well, i have a setup with a windows xp machine that gets its ip via dhcp and wlan
[08:21] <skavenge> wine will never run them at native windows speeds, so dont kid yourself there
[08:21] <SanketMedhi> Some_Person: you ARE a kid!
[08:21] <paniq> nihilocrat: found the prob
[08:21] <newbie_> but i can't get my xubuntu desktop to get one
[08:21] <charlesJacobs> SanketMedhi: all right I'll try that
[08:22] <paniq> nihilocrat: dangling symlink, removed it
[08:22] <[Ex0r] > alright guys, time for homework
[08:22] <BHSPitMonkey> wow, pre-pubescent linux users
[08:22] <polpak> skavenge, actually some things work better under wine
[08:22] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:22] <newbie_> ping <ip of the router> gets host not found
[08:22] <polpak> skavenge, it depends a lot on the application
[08:22] <nihilocrat> paniq: haha, those are fun... are you the linuxdemos.org guy?
[08:22] <derekS> BHSPitMonkey: thats prob the reason he is installing mIRC and not trying to use xchat/konversation
[08:22] <SanketMedhi> polpak: like which?
[08:22] <newbie_> dhclient returns that no dhcpoffers were received and no working leases in persistent database
[08:22] <skavenge> polpak; nothing ive ever seen that uses 3d acceleration like games
[08:22] <harisund> Hey where can I find out the libraries that are required to configure the kernel graphically?
[08:22] <BHSPitMonkey> probably
[08:23] <amphi> harisund: ncurses-dev
[08:23] <BHSPitMonkey> I was probably 12 or 13 when I first tried SuSe
[08:23] <SanketMedhi> polpak: wine is good for a few games
[08:23] <newbie_> however the driver for eth0 appears in lsmod
[08:23] <JaMaLz> hello
[08:23] <polpak> skavenge, that's mostly due to a lack of maturity in the directx wrappers
[08:23] <derekS> i started at 17 on mandrake
[08:23] <JaMaLz> how can i update my apt
[08:23] <SanketMedhi> BHSPitMonkey: I did not have a PC till I was 17!
[08:23] <polpak> skavenge, but it's getting better
[08:23] <geeksauce> derekS, same here
[08:23] <newbie_> what could be the reason that i don't get an ip?
[08:23] <derekS> JaMaLz: sudo apt-get update
[08:23] <Some_Person> ubuntu is the first linux distro i've ever actually seen running, and it was on my computer
[08:23] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : do you have your interfaces file set up properly?
[08:23] <harisund> amphi and for the Gtk/Qt configs?
[08:24] <newbie_> i hope so
[08:24] <skavenge> polpak; yeah, it is getting better
[08:24] <amphi> harisund: no idea; what's wrong with ncurses?
[08:24] <newbie_> what should it look like?
[08:24] <BHSPitMonkey> SanketMedhi, yep, my first was when I was like 11... 233MHz, 6GB hard drive, 64MB ram
[08:24] <BHSPitMonkey> hehehe
[08:24] <newbie_> auto lo
[08:24] <nihilocrat> Mandrake 7.2 was my first distro...
[08:24] <newbie_> iface lo inet loopback
[08:24] <BHSPitMonkey> hand-me-down
[08:24] <nihilocrat> I think it was like 2001 or something
[08:24] <newbie_> mapping hotplug
[08:24] <SanketMedhi> BHSPitMonkey: mine was a P3
[08:24] <newbie_> script grep
[08:24] <SanketMedhi> :P
[08:24] <harisund> amphi if I have ncurses I have to use menuconfig. I thought xconfig would be slightly  more convenient that is all.. thanks for that though .. something is always better than make config :)
[08:24] <newbie_> map eth
[08:24] <Stormx2> Anyone know why this is happening --> tempest_for_mp3: mp3player.cpp:134: int main(int, char**): Assertion `input != __null' failed. HELP! :D
[08:24] <skavenge> personally i cant stand wine, or moreso what its purpose is .. whoever deicded we needed to emulate windows on linux should be shot. </rant>
[08:24] <newbie_> map eth0 sorry
[08:24] <SanketMedhi> Stormx2: what are you trying to do?
[08:25] <newbie_> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[08:25] <BHSPitMonkey> this is probably a #ubuntu-offtopic conversation :P
[08:25] <amphi> harisund: the kernel docs should tell you
[08:25] <Some_Person> sad part about my modem driver is, in 2003, the driver was FREE
[08:25] <derekS> i went from mandrake -> debian, but before i tried debain, i thought that distros you paid for were better so i pirated mandrake... LOL
[08:25] <newbie_> netmask 255.255.255.0
[08:25] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : you need an 'auto eth0' line somewhere in there
[08:25] <SanketMedhi> hhe
[08:25] <Stormx2> SanketMedhi: Run tempest_for_mp3, which basicly turns my monitor into an AM radio transmitter :P
[08:25] <BHSPitMonkey> skavenge, wine stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator
[08:25] <newbie_> it's in the last line
[08:25] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : oh okay
[08:25] <SanketMedhi> Stormx2: :s ok! :P
[08:25] <amphi> derekS: you pirated mandrake? they don't have isos for d/l?
[08:25] <harisund> amphi yeah that is what I am trying to read and find out now ... just say you need Qt/Gtk devel libraries.. so I am guessing like ncurses-dev there are qt-dev and gtk-dev somewhere..
[08:25] <Ensiferum> can i get the kernel source off the synaptic?
[08:25] <geeksauce> my first computer was a packard bell 486, 66mhz, 8 mb ram, 500 mb hdd,
[08:25] <skavenge> BHSPitMonkey: whatever they want to call it
[08:25] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: yes
[08:26] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: whats it called?
[08:26] <geeksauce> with a double speed cd-rom, lol
[08:26] <derekS> amphi: they do, er, they did, i am sure the still do, but i pirated the paid version
[08:26] <nihilocrat> derekS: I went debian too, but then I went Ubuntu 'cause I thought "debian with up-to-date packages" was the coolest thing ever
[08:26] <Stormx2> Anyone ever run tempest for eliza!
[08:26] <Stormx2> ^_^
[08:26] <BHSPitMonkey> amphi, they have Club versions and crap, with proprietarty drivers and stuff out of box
[08:26] <amphi> harisund: yeah, but you may need more than that - gtk-dev can open a can of worms, glib-dev, pango-dev, atk-dev, blah blah
[08:26] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: linux headers
[08:26] <amphi> BHSPitMonkey: ah
[08:26] <newbie_> nihilocrat: other ideas?
[08:26] <derekS> nihilocrat: i always used unstable... i fubarred my debian install right when ubuntu changed its name to ubuntu, and so first i tried suse and hated it, then i tried ubuntu, which basically was debian
[08:26] <Ensiferum> SanketMedhi: no, i mean the source
[08:26] <Ensiferum> not the headers
[08:27] <amphi> nihilocrat: not as up to date as debian sid ;)
[08:27] <nihilocrat> oh, okay, well "up-to-date relatively-stable packages"
[08:27] <anders_> Where can i find the: Gaim ikon?
[08:27] <fowlduck> where is that ubuntu installation guide with all the pictures and stuff?
[08:27] <fowlduck> !guide
[08:27] <ubotu> I know nothing about guide - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:27] <amphi> harisund: for your sanity, I would stick with ncurses ;)
[08:27] <fowlduck> !guide

[08:28] <sysrpl> hello
[08:28] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : You don't need to give a dhcp interface any arguments
[08:28] <nihilocrat> like the netmask thing
[08:28] <sysrpl> is there a way to install gtk 2.10 on dapper?
[08:28] <polpak> !fishing > fowlduck
[08:28] <bina> Hi, I have a drive that I store large files under, it's mounted at /Large.  The file permissions for the directory according to ls -lh are "drwxr-xr-x   8 harry 1002 4.0K 2006-07-13 19:20 Large".  Whenever I try to make a new directory I get 'mkdir: cannot create directory `/Large/something': Read-only file system'.  fstab has 'defaults' as its option
[08:28] <nihilocrat> The 'iface eth0 inet dhcp' should be good enough
[08:28] <newbie_> and network 192.168.2.1
[08:28] <SanketMedhi> Ensiferum: do this, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential xinetd
[08:28] <newbie_> gateway 192.168.2.1
[08:28] <polpak> fowlduck,  https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[08:28] <bina> does anyone know how to fix it.  It only seems to happen whenever I copy a file to it
[08:28] <fowlduck> i found it
[08:28] <JaMaLz> i got no packages
[08:28] <fowlduck> thanks
[08:28] <polpak> fowlduck, is I think what you're looking for
[08:28] <SanketMedhi> anders_: what is Gaim ikon
[08:28] <fowlduck> :)
[08:28] <newbie_> amd dns-nameservers 192.168.2.1
[08:28] <tom22> hello all, I would like to sent faxes throug my Fritz card. which programm ist good to use? a fax server I don't need.
[08:28] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : yeah, try commenting those out then running /etc/init.d/networking restart
[08:29] <fowlduck> polpak: no, this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[08:29] <bina> if I unmount it and remount it I can write again, but that gets rather annoying after a while :-)
[08:29] <xbow> hi all
[08:29] <SanketMedhi> bina: can we see your /etc/fstab entry for /Large?
[08:30] <Some_Person> urgh, the only free Conexant drivers are for kernel 2.4
[08:30] <bina> SanketMedhi, its /dev/hdb1       /Large          ext3    defaults        0       0
[08:30] <AngryElf> how do you set up a printer to be shared on a network?
[08:30] <SanketMedhi> bina add a rw option to it
[08:30] <SanketMedhi> !fstab
[08:30] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions that are mounted on the system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !partitions
[08:30] <SanketMedhi> !fstab > bina
[08:31] <newbie_> nihilocrat: it's all the same as before
[08:31] <newbie_> it tries several time dhcpdiscover using different intervals
[08:31] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : and you're certain that the DHCP server it's trying to contact is fine and dandy?
[08:31] <kel> can any one help me on installation of server
[08:31] <SanketMedhi> kel: ask
[08:32] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : and that you have the correct kernel module installed for your NIC
[08:32] <newbie_> i hope so, at least i get access via win xp
[08:32] <newbie_> but via wlan not cable
[08:32] <bina> SanketMedhi: with rw the problem still exists :(  I think it may be my HDD erroring and becoming readonly.  mount still says its mounted rw though
[08:32] <bina> SanketMedhi, Thanks for the info, looking at it now
[08:32] <nihilocrat> kel: what kind of server?
[08:32] <SanketMedhi> bina:ok
[08:33] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : ohhh, and is eth0 a cabled or wireless conection?
[08:33] <newbie_> it shows me the appropriate driver
[08:33] <porkpie> guy's how do you restart a program under ubuntu ....where are the executables stored ....I am used to FreeBSD :(
[08:33] <Allz-i-> hello i hava 2 boots windows and linux and i have put all the windows files inn linux but i dont know how to find it now ;S
[08:33] <nihilocrat> I have never actually set up WiFi in linux
[08:33] <kel> i want the server to serve windows of a lan network
[08:33] <newbie_> eth0 is a cabled connection
[08:33] <wizzlefish> everything I install via apt-get asks me to remove ubuntu-desktop - thinking this isn't such a good idea, I don't proceed - how can I install things without destroying Linux?
[08:33] <StarkMjolk> my dapper install only has utf8 locales, but I would need a ISO-8859 locale aswell. Where can I get it?
[08:33] <SanketMedhi> porkpie: /etc/init.d/server restart
[08:33] <newbie_> the windows xp machine gets wlan-access
[08:33] <sysrpl> hello ... is there a way to install gtk 2.10 on dapper?
[08:33] <newbie_> and is using dhcp
[08:33] <ciaron> how do i run an app at a lower priority than everything else?
[08:34] <nihilocrat> kel: you mean serve files to windows clients? in that case, do a base install of dapper-server and install samba
[08:34] <nihilocrat> kel: there are some samba configuration shenanigans to deal with, too
[08:34] <roxlu> hi all!
[08:34] <SanketMedhi> ciaron: which app? server?
[08:34] <newbie_> i use no wifi with linux
[08:34] <section31> Is there a way to find a log for all the information that appears at boot?
[08:34] <ciaron> SanketMedhi: azureus to be exact
[08:34] <newbie_> i only use wifi with win xp and it works
[08:34] <roxlu> I've seen somewhere that the red5 package can be installed using the synaptic manager, but I can't find it anywhere?
[08:34] <javaJake>  is Windows XP, Client is Ubuntu Libnux
 TheBonsai: if you were to roll out linux desktops in an office, you expect all employees from secretaries to accountants to know how use the command line? ... i am looking big picture here ... me personally, i feel comfortable enough with the command line to run debian, but i don't think everyone is
[08:34] <SanketMedhi> ciaron: man nice
[08:34] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : if your win-xp box can't get a cabled connection then the problem might be hardware or with the DHCP server
[08:34] <SanketMedhi> !nice
[08:34] <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
[08:35] <javaJake> Eek... sorry for that blerb.
[08:35] <newbie_> my win xp box can get a cabled connection
[08:35] <kel> do i need to install apache server

[08:35] <kel> and i want it to perform the function of cache
[08:35] <nihilocrat> what sort of cache?
[08:35] <newbie_> with the same network cable i use with the linux machine
[08:35] <javaJake> How do I get a Linux computer to connect to a Windows computer using a null modem connection?
[08:36] <nihilocrat> Allz-i- : google for help on 'fstab' if I understand what you're asking
[08:36] <Oni-Dracula> null modem connection wuhhh
[08:36] <nihilocrat> javaJake: google for SLIP, I think
[08:36] <SanketMedhi> !fstab > Allz-I-
[08:36] <nihilocrat> Oh
[08:36] <nihilocrat> that's a smarter way of doing stuff
[08:36] <wizzlefish> everything I install via apt-get asks me to remove ubuntu-desktop - thinking this isn't such a good idea, I don't proceed - how can I install things without destroying my Ubuntu installation?
[08:36] <SanketMedhi> :)
[08:36] <chowells> javaJake: edit /etc/inittab, use hyperterm on the windows machine
[08:36] <nihilocrat> !slip

[08:38] <javaJake> Allz-i-, though not as easy to use.
[08:38] <SanketMedhi> wizzlefish: you can remove ubuntu-desktop
[08:38] <Ramunas> Allz-i-: nope, but there's GIMP and PIXEL, PIXEL is just like Photoshop
[08:38] <SanketMedhi> wizzlefish: I don't have it installed
[08:38] <nihilocrat> newbie_: if you are using a wireless router thing that everyone and thier mom has, it has a DHCP server on it

[08:46] <javaJake> nihilocrat, how do I use PPP? I don't know a _thing_
[08:46] <nihilocrat> oh, well that blows
[08:46] <polpak> !ppp
[08:46] <ubotu> I know nothing about ppp - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:46] <kel> thank for you help friend
[08:46] <polpak> hrm
[08:46] <SanketMedhi> Carmen-: what are you trying to do?
[08:47] <SanketMedhi> !pppoe
[08:47] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[08:47] <Carmen-> to get GKrellem run
[08:47] <nihilocrat> kel: no problem

[08:47] <SanketMedhi> lol
[08:47] <nihilocrat> javaJake: look it up in the wiki, I'm going to bet you need to add an entry to your /etc/network/interfaces file for ppp0
[08:47] <Carmen-> WELL FUCK
[08:47] <seagulltheme> I'm having a problem that started out rather minor but is starting to become a nuisance.  All KDE applications I run on gnome get the error "Could not start process Unable to create IO slave: permission denied" and some functions do not work.  If anyone could help me I would be EXTREMELY grateful.
[08:47] <nihilocrat> javaJake: and install the right kernel module
[08:47] <nihilocrat> haha
[08:47] <kel> please i will be happy if you can add me

[08:49] <seven_six_two> I have an acer aspire 1800 that I'm trying to get working with a linksys WPC11 ver.4 pcmcia wlan card, and I can't see the card in "network settings" window in order to activate it(under ubuntu 5.10 live). All I see is eth0 and modem. I checked the device manager, and both the internal wlan card and the pcmcia card are listed(albeit with no capabilities listed). Is there something else I can do?
[08:49] <alpa> SanketMedhi: female
[08:50] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : I can try helping you out more if you can pastebin or pm or whatever your /etc/network/interfaces file as well as output from lsmod and lspci
[08:50] <SanketMedhi> alpa: asl?
[08:50] <Flannel> SanketMedhi: this is not a social channel
[08:50] <alpa> SanketMedhi: this is not Yahoo
[08:50] <SanketMedhi> Flannel: thanks for reminding me :P
[08:50] <La_PaRCa> ok, who here knows how to use awk? I want to know how I can print from $2 to $n when I dont know what the value of n is
[08:50] <javaJake> polpak, Here's the catch: I don't have a phone number to dial for the PPP connection.. it's a null modem connection.
[08:50] <SanketMedhi> !awk
[08:50] <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

[08:51] <kel> i  have been finding who can put me though for some month now on how to install the server
[08:51] <kel> but could not get some one
[08:51] <harisund> What package do I need to be able to use mkinitrd?
[08:52] <javaJake> So, how do I establish a _null_ modem connection between two computers?
[08:52] <kel> i think i will state from here
[08:52] <SanketMedhi> !slip
[08:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about slip - try searching bots.ubuntulinux.nl, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:52] <polpak> javaJake, with a serial cable?
[08:52] <NickaNicka> why doesn't xfm work when I install it using apt-get?
[08:52] <nihilocrat> kel: you will probably also have some trouble configuring samba correctly and maybe some other things, but if you do just come back here and ask
[08:52] <NickaNicka> it installs it and there is manual but no command
[08:52] <nihilocrat> It also might be fun to go to #ubnutu-server because no one ever seems to TALK there
[08:52] <javaJake> polpak, with a modem
[08:53] <javaJake> and a phone line
[08:53] <javaJake> Or whatever.
[08:53] <Ensiferum> someone help me build one specific kernel module?
[08:53] <SanketMedhi> javaJake: I think you should search for more info online
[08:53] <Allz-i-> is ther a site to help me with this gimp ;( i am new to that
[08:53] <SanketMedhi> javaJake: I am sure you will get some
[08:53] <SanketMedhi> !gimp > Allz-I-
[08:53] <kel> will i neet you here
[08:55] <javaJake> SanketMedhi, I have tried
[08:55] <kel> yes
[08:55] <SanketMedhi> ok
[08:55] <javaJake> Not only do I not know what I am looking for
[08:55] <kel> i know that
[08:55] <javaJake> But I have issues knowing which /dev/ttyS* is the actual modem
[08:56] <kel> i know that i can problem with ip masqurading
[08:56] <SanketMedhi> javaJake: is communication thru a modem line necessary? Wont a cross cable work?
[08:56] <roxlu> Hi all
[08:56] <javaJake> SanketMedhi, what if all I have is a modem cable.
[08:56] <SanketMedhi> roxlu: hi
[08:56] <roxlu> I've connected my USB webcam (logitech) to my computer.. is there a way to test it?
[08:56] <kel> because i will like to use static IP address
[08:56] <SanketMedhi> javaJake: a cross cable won't cost you a lot!
[08:57] <javaJake> SanketMedhi, but let's pretend I can't get one, no matter what. :)
[08:57] <SanketMedhi> lol ok
[08:57] <javaJake> roxlu, yes, there is.
[08:57] <roxlu> javaJake: oke nice :D .. can you tell me how?
[08:57] <nihilocrat> !iptables
[08:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line), firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing) or shorewall (web interface)
[08:57] <SanketMedhi> javaJake: I am sure you can borrow a cross cable than spending time here
[08:57] <javaJake> roxlu, run a webcam program, or some other video input device
[08:57] <roxlu> javaJake: do you maybe know one ?
[08:57] <nihilocrat> shorwall ftw >_<

[08:58] <roxlu> thanx
[08:58] <harisund> Anyone? OR atleast the equivalent of mkinitrd?
[08:59] <dgm> I used automatix to install a lot of multimedia stuff, and mostly works great, but my totem movieplayer plays things distorted: half height to what it should be, so the whole thing is stretched out.   Anyone else seen this?
[08:59] <void^> harisund: update-initramfs, or mkinitramfs
[08:59] <starkmjolk> when I run "dpkg-reconfigure locales" I only get a bunch of UTF8:s generated, how can I make ISO8859 locales?

[08:59] <SimzI> my recycle bin isn't emptying
[08:59] <SimzI> how do i fix this
[09:00] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: what did you delete?
[09:00] <harisund> void^ will that get me a .img image to use? I want to compile kernel manually and not use any debian way of compiling (using make-kpkg)
[09:00] <SimzI> some wma tracks
[09:00] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: if you deleted stuff with root permissions it wonr
[09:00] <SimzI> Is there a command to empty the recycle bin in root?
[09:01] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: no but...
[09:01] <nihilocrat> su && rm ~/.Trash
[09:01] <nihilocrat> right?
[09:01] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: exactly :)
[09:01] <SimzI> k thanks
[09:01] <nihilocrat> oh well, I guess rm ~/.Trash/* would be cleaner
[09:02] <void^> harisund: initramfs is the modern replacement for initrd
[09:02] <SimzI> That still didn't work nihilocrat
[09:02] <GStubbs43> Does anyone know Where can I find a Xubuntu iso torrent? I couldn't find it on the xubuntu site...
[09:02] <newbie_> nihilator: i'd have to type in everything
[09:02] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: rm -rf /home/USER/.Trash/*
[09:03] <SimzI> I hover my mouse of the waste basket and it sasy there are 1 items in the bin, but when i open it there's like 15
[09:03] <SanketMedhi> SimzI: sudo rm -rf /home/USER/.Trash/*
[09:03] <harisund> void^ uh oh .. so the traditional method of compiling kernel wouldn't work?
[09:03] <nihilocrat> SankeyMedhi : Oh yeah, you're right.
[09:03] <roxlu> javaJake: I can't send private messages... but its working!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:03] <roxlu> I really love ubuntu!!!!!
[09:03] <SanketMedhi> nihilocrat: ;)
[09:03] <nihilocrat> SankeyMedhi : ~/.Trash would be removing root's trash..
[09:03] <SanketMedhi> roxlu: we too :)
[09:03] <SanketMedhi> nihilocrat: yeah
[09:03] <roxlu> ubuntu is imo the first linux distribution which succeeded to be real user friendly
[09:03] <SanketMedhi> nihilocrat: and it will remove the dir :P
[09:04] <SanketMedhi> nihilocrat: not just the contents
[09:04] <javaJake> roxlu, I completely agree with you! Enjoy!
[09:04] <void^> harisund: well, you don't really need any initramfs/initrd, unless you want fancy stuff like network booting and probably bootsplash
[09:04] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : oh yeah, you're right.. hmm
[09:04] <LTjake> hello everyone (sorry for the repeat question). I can't seem to get my windows key to work. There are no options under the "Layout Options" tab and my keyboard model is shown as "unknown" in the "Layouts" tab (there are no selectable options when i press "...") any ideas?
[09:04] <stjepan> how to get image info from terminal? I mean resolution, format, size etc......
[09:04] <stjepan> ?
[09:05] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : you can try taking your exising config and changing the word 'dhcp' to 'static'
[09:05] <harisund> void^ So in my grub menu.lst file all I need is a root(hd0,0) and a kernel line? In the current menu.lst there is also a initrd line .. that is why I am wondering how I will go about creating it
[09:05] <Foobal> roxly: in the land of the blind, ..
[09:05] <nihilocrat> newbie_ : making sure to uncomment all the stuff you have about netmask and nameservers and stuff
[09:05] <Gargoyle> Hello
[09:05] <Spec> harisund: did you make your own kernel?
[09:05] <blind> Foobal: lawl
[09:05] <nihilocrat> newbie_: that would set you up with a static IP, but I'm not sure if the router would like that or not
[09:05] <SanketMedhi> stjepan: use the 'file filename' command
[09:06] <harisund> Spec I am trying to atleast. The standard make xconfig, make dep (which is not needed now), make bzImage, make modules and make modules_install
[09:06] <void^> harisund: you should probably stick to the kernel compilation guides on the ubuntu wiki.
[09:06] <Gargoyle> I am running 6.06 under virtual pc, once the installer is complete - is there an option I can add to the grub params to force a specific gfx mode?
[09:06] <Spec> harisund: might i suggest you use make-kpkg
[09:06] <Gargoyle> it's going a bit funny at the mo
[09:06] <Spec> harisund: also, if all your modules that are required for boot (hda drivers, scsi drivers, whatever) are 'in' the kernel -- then you don't really need an initramfs
[09:07] <Spec> Gargoyle: you can for console resolution
[09:07] <Spec> Gargoyle: not for X resolution though
[09:07] <Gargoyle> Yeah, its the console thats funny
[09:07] <Spec> Gargoyle: vga=ask and it'll give you a choice, choose one you like and then you can do vga=###
[09:07] <Gargoyle> ahh
[09:07] <harisund> maybe I should stick to Gentoo then .... :) .. ok Spec I will try make-kpkg
[09:08] <Spec> harisund: make-kpkg will package your kernel into a .deb, it's the win.
[09:08] <nihilocrat> well

[09:21] <Spec> eltech: works now?
[09:21] <harold> SanketMedhi, thanks
[09:21] <SanketMedhi> np
[09:21] <Spec> Ensiferum: /proc/config.tgz is the config IN the kernel, and it gets placed there dynamically
[09:21] <mike1> spec: I've reinstalled hostap_utils
[09:21] <banyon> That didn't fix my problem... mic still not working
[09:21] <nihilocrat> Ensiferum : I don't know if all distros put it in /boot/, but it should probably always be in /proc
[09:21] <nihilocrat> yeh
[09:21] <Spec> Ensiferum: /boot/config-blahblahblah is actually on the filesystem, it just chills there
[09:21] <banyon> Its on, full volume, 20 DB boost... still nothing
[09:21] <Spec> banyon: look into alsactl to enable the mic, i don't know why it'd be [off] 
[09:22] <Spec> not all kernels put it in /proc
[09:22] <Spec> only the 2.6+ kernels that have that option enabled, it's fairly new
[09:22] <banyon> I turned it on spec, someone else told me to hit M and it turned it "ON"
[09:22] <Spec> banyon: oh, ok
[09:22] <Spec> banyon: and it's on full?
[09:22] <homerh_linux> hiya ppl ive added an extra hdd to my system and set it to acces b /home/samba  but now when i try and do anything in there i get access denided (no permishion)
[09:22] <banyon> yes
[09:22] <eltech> Spec, yes
[09:22] <kel> please what is the use of SMS server
[09:22] <eltech> Spec, sorry to waste your time
[09:23] <jackinthebox6386> what repositroy has libdvdcss and codecs?
[09:23] <Spec> eltech: my time is never wasted ;0
[09:23] <jackinthebox6386> for ubuntu
[09:23] <Spec> eltech: as long as your problem is fixed :)
[09:23] <Ensiferum> Spec: yeah, right but proc is virtual, im configuring a kernel
[09:23] <eltech> Spec, well its appreciated :)
[09:23] <nihilocrat> Spec: the more you know!
[09:23] <Ensiferum> and i wanna use the stock kernel config as a basis for that
[09:23] <nihilocrat> !fuse
[09:23] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[09:23] <Ensiferum> or can i pull the config from /proc somehow?

[09:23] <Frankenstein> hi, i cant get this to work: sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin  and i used the extra repostories
[09:24] <Tauop> hi. I have a NFS problem. In fact, there is no error at the mount of the nfs directory but when I list some directory thanks "ls" Ihave timeout (for soft nfs) or it is block (for hard nfs). Here is a strace of the "ls" -> http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/f4tnid93.html
[09:24] <SanketMedhi> !java
[09:24] <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
[09:24] <olivia> oups! excuse me!
[09:24] <Tauop> has someone an idea ?
[09:24] <jrib> Frankenstein: you have multiverse?
[09:24] <Frankenstein> whats that
[09:24] <harold> SanketMedhi, i can't extract the .so out of the libxxf86vm deb. archive manager says it's unsupported
[09:24] <jrib> Frankenstein: multiverse is a repository
[09:25] <banyon> Darnit, this microphone problem is the only thing keeping me attached to windows right now...
[09:25] <SanketMedhi> harold: what cd did you use?
[09:25] <jackinthebox6386> how do i find out what i'm using?  ie breezy, drapper, etc
[09:25] <SanketMedhi> harold: command*
[09:25] <SanketMedhi> lol
[09:25] <jrib> jackinthebox6386: lsb_release -c
[09:25] <Frankenstein> umm im using this: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sources.php for breezy
[09:25] <harold> i just tried to open it with archive manager
[09:26] <Ignite__> banyon, what problem are you having?
[09:26] <SanketMedhi> harold: use dpkg -x file.deb
[09:26] <banyon> Ignite: My mic won't work, it won't pick up any sound at all
[09:27] <Ignite__> banyon, is it USB or directly pluged into your sound card?
[09:27] <veepster_> is there an ubuntu binary for freepbx? (or any web interface for asterisk)
[09:27] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: you don't need a binary
[09:27] <esher> hey, my openoffice seems to be broken, the fonts in the menu-task are not correct, its not readable ...
[09:27] <banyon> Inite: Soundcard, onboard, Via,
[09:27] <Tauop> thanks for reply ;)
[09:27] <jrib> Frankenstein: I believe those sun-java packages only exist on dapper, you'll have to use something like seveas' repo for breezy
[09:28] <Frankenstein> and that is?
[09:28] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: download http://voiceone.it
[09:28] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: its a web interface
[09:28] <jrib> !seveas > Frankenstein
[09:28] <Seveas> jrib, wrong. sun-java for breezy has just been removed from my repo
[09:28] <Frankenstein> thanks
[09:28] <Guest09289> Can someone help me with icecast ?
[09:28] <banyon> Ignite: VIA 8237, Alsamixer says mic is on, its full volume, not muted, with 20DB gain turned on... still nothing
[09:28] <SanketMedhi> Guest09289: what are you streaming?
[09:28] <Guest09289> movies
[09:29] <Ignite__> banyon, right click speaker icon in the top right of the panel, click "Open Volume Control", click "Capture" in the window that appears and make sure the mic volume is up
[09:29] <jrib> Frankenstein: make sure you see what Seveas just said, I'll see if I can find a place for you to get it...
[09:29] <Guest09289> can someone help me with authentication
[09:29] <SanketMedhi> Guest09289: on a LAN?
[09:29] <Guest09289> no
[09:29] <jrib> Frankenstein: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-12dfa90d1580b2a1d946cc628a1c0d2bdaa5b259
[09:29] <Ignite__> banyon, oh and unmuted
[09:29] <banyon> Ignite: its turned all the way up, capture, mic, they both are, neither are muted, its just not picking anything up
[09:30] <Seveas> jrib, plf perhaps
[09:30] <Ignite__> hrm
[09:30] <SanketMedhi> Guest09289: do you know that you can stream movies using VLC?
[09:30] <Ignite__> banyon, what program are you using?
[09:30] <Guest09289> not interested thanks SanketMedhi
[09:30] <SanketMedhi> ok
[09:30] <Guest09289> i just wanna know if u can help
[09:30] <SanketMedhi> !icecast
[09:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about icecast - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:30] <nihilocrat> VLC is the One True Media Player
[09:30] <SanketMedhi> :)
[09:31] <banyon> Ignite: Audacity, soundrecorder, TeamSpeak... you name it... when I turn up all the way to see what its recording, its just fuzz
[09:31] <banyon> Ignite: like a mic is running, but no one is talking, and when I talk, nothing is picked up
[09:31] <SanketMedhi> Guest09289: there is a wiki page for Icecast on wiki.ubuntu.com
[09:31] <keito> i'm on a dell inspiron 6400 with HDA intel sound, and alsa was working with no problems out of the box, but now it for some reason doesn't
[09:31] <keito> help!
[09:31] <Ensiferum> kulp
[09:31] <teicah> how do i get a list of the software installed?  (like rpm -aq in fedora)
[09:32] <Ignite__> banyon, try, Applications -> Sound & Video -> Sound Recorder, then change the "Record from input:" setting to "Microphone" and record, to test it, it could be the program your using
[09:32] <Ensiferum> keito: cant hear anything?
[09:32] <harold> i have a cd thats mixed audio/data and i can't get to the data part, sound juicer pops up with the audio tracks. how do iget to the data part? it doesn't look like it's mounted...
[09:32] <keito> Ensiferum, i get no sound output at all
[09:32] <Ensiferum> keito: did you check the volume level? ;)
[09:32] <keito> haha, yeah
[09:32] <keito> i did
[09:32] <SanketMedhi> harold: you must be having a cd icon on your desktop use it
[09:32] <Ensiferum> keito: dmesg | grep alsa
[09:32] <Ensiferum> whats in there?
[09:33] <harold> SanketMedhi, i have one but it opens sound juicer
[09:33] <banyon> Ignite: tried that, I've tried Sound recorder, Audacity, and TeamSpeak...
[09:33] <SanketMedhi> umm
[09:33] <keito> wow
[09:33] <keito> grep returned nothing
[09:33] <SanketMedhi> harold: try right click
[09:33] <keito> wtf
[09:33] <Ignite__> banyon, and you get audio output from the same card right?
[09:33] <banyon> Ignite: I've come here, and posted about this on Ubutuforums, and linux questions... nothing has worked
[09:33] <harold> SanketMedhi, tried both options
[09:33] <banyon> Ignite: yes
[09:33] <SanketMedhi> harold: try going to Places >> Cd
[09:34] <banyon> Ignite: sound works great, but just no Mic,... and the mic was working perfect on Ubuntu 5.10... 6.06 its broke.
[09:34] <harold> SanketMedhi, same, though i hadn't tried that
[09:34] <Ignite__> banyon, what model is it? (don't worry i'm sure we can figure it out :)
[09:34] <teicah> how do i get a list of the software installed?  (like rpm -aq in fedora) thankyou
[09:34] <keito> Ensiferum, since there's no alsa there, my kernel must be screwed up, huh?
[09:34] <shwag> what is the best FTP server to run ? PureFTPd ?
[09:35] <Ensiferum> keito: check lsmod as well
[09:35] <banyon> Ignite: VIA 8237, Chip: Realtek ALC655 rev 0
[09:35] <SanketMedhi> shwag: Proftp
[09:35] <keito> Ensiferum, no alsa there either
[09:35] <Ensiferum> keito: but to be honest i dont know alsa works
[09:35] <Ignite__> teicah, dpkg -l
[09:35] <Ignite__> banyon, ok i will have a look into it
[09:35] <Ensiferum> what i said was just some guesswork to see if there were some errors or something
[09:35] <keito> Ensiferum, i see. maybe i should boot with an older kernel version and test
[09:36] <Ensiferum> maybe
[09:36] <Ensiferum> im having some major problems myself
[09:36] <keito> with alsa?
[09:36] <phunkalicious> my sound is broken too...well...i mean it works, but my volume controls don't control anything :/
[09:36] <Ensiferum> with the @$@ scsi layer
[09:36] <Ensiferum> libata
[09:36] <keito> :/
[09:36] <Ensiferum> had to hack int scsi-core and scsi-ata
[09:36] <SanketMedhi> I am bored!
[09:36] <veepster_> sanket, I have already installed asterisk (using apt-get) . Will voiceone work with it?
[09:36] <homerh_linux> hi just added new hdd how do i set permisions on a it can only read from it at the mo
[09:37] <keito> i'm glad i don't need to do any major work like that to get my system working
[09:37] <veepster_> I have also already installed apache
[09:37] <eltech> i cant understand this .. seems vnc is installed and all.. how can i connect to it from another location other then local host? why isnt there a suggestion or a howto on connecting remotely?
[09:37] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: yes, it will, it has good docs
[09:37] <veepster_> ok thanks
[09:37] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: good
[09:37] <SanketMedhi> veepster_: you will also need php and mysql
[09:37] <zaikxtox> hello. what's the difference between server kernel image, and the normal one?
[09:38] <Ensiferum> different config
[09:38] <abhinay> i want shadow effect to window or menus , how can i add shadow effects in ubuntu ?
[09:38] <shwag> anyone here used proftpd with mysql before? just curious if it works well.
[09:38] <nihilocrat> the server image is SMP-enabled, too
[09:38] <Ensiferum> server image is "optimized" for serves
[09:38] <juul> my question is similary to homerh_linuxs: when i hook up a usb disc it is automounted but only my user has access, how do i change these permissions so it stays changed the next time i hook it up?
[09:38] <SanketMedhi> shwag: ftp with mysql ?? :s
[09:38] <nihilocrat> which you need for multiprocessor or multicore stuff
[09:38] <SanketMedhi> shwag: no
[09:38] <Ensiferum> nihilocrat: what does smp image have to do with servers
[09:38] <gatekeeper> eltech: lots of howto's on the ubuntu forums
[09:38] <Ensiferum> just if you have a hyperthreading cpu you can use a smp- image
[09:38] <nihilocrat> Ensiferum: "which you need for multiprocessor or multicore stuff"
[09:38] <eltech> yea, needs to be a more centralized howto
[09:38] <KyleHunt> Is the Official Ubuntu Book going to be worth buying? Or can I find all of that info in the docs anyway
[09:38] <eltech> im looking now though
[09:39] <Ensiferum> which doesnt necessarily make it a "server" thing
[09:39] <zaikxtox> Ensiferum, you mean, that thinks like preempt, and so?
[09:39] <SanketMedhi> Ubuntu book?
[09:39] <SanketMedhi> do we need one? :)
[09:39] <Ensiferum> zaikxtox: huh?
[09:39] <nihilocrat> Ensiferum : uhhh... many servers are multi-processor
[09:39] <smorsony> Anybody know if I can query "System model" from ubuntu? Looking for the same info as from wmi win32_computersystem
[09:39] <zaikxtox> Ensiferum, no problem. i will try reading more about...
[09:39] <zaikxtox> :)
[09:39] <KyleHunt> there is one coming out next month with a foreword by shuttleworth
[09:39] <Ensiferum> nihilocrat: as well as many desk computers
[09:39] <MenZa> KyleHunt: never heard about it, but I assume every bit of documentation--and more--will be found on the Wiki.
[09:39] <nihilocrat> Ensiferum : only recently with multicore stuff, I thought, though
[09:39] <SanketMedhi> KyleHunt: ok thanks
[09:40] <KyleHunt> I see. Thanks
[09:40] <Ensiferum> nihilocrat: my system is years old, p4 on 875p hyperthreading enabled.
[09:40] <Ensiferum> running a smp image
[09:40] <banyon> BAH, seems like a lot of people with the same sound card are having this issue... kinda sucks...  its the only problem I have with Ubuntu.
[09:40] <junkY_san> how can i edit the applications menu?
[09:40] <Ensiferum> banyon: theres always a problem ;)
[09:40] <keito> judah, alacarte menu editor
[09:40] <Ensiferum> (problems)
[09:40] <SanketMedhi> junkY_san: right click on main menu and edit menus
[09:40] <banyon> got that right Ensiferum
[09:41] <gatekeeper> KyleHunt: is there something specific you are looking for?
[09:41] <profoX`> Does anyone know what program is in charge for displaying the OnScreenDisplay and changing the volume, when you press volume keys on your media keyboard / laptop ?
[09:41] <banyon> Well, thanks for trying to help guys, i gotta go.
[09:42] <gatekeeper> profoX`: you can use alsamixer from the cli
[09:42] <profoX`> gatekeeper: sorry that was not my question ;)
[09:42] <KyleHunt> gatekeeper: not really, just need a overview of Ubuntu.
[09:42] <veepster_> wow, php and mysql just to access asterisk from the front end? Lets hope I have enough memory
[09:43] <SanketMedhi> no you don't need to
[09:43] <KyleHunt> Ifile:///usr/share/example-content/book-toc.html       looks like it is a little more basic, but idk.
[09:44] <Bennedetto> alright everyone, im trying ubuntu after being convinced to give it a go, and i'm having some issues.  I just installed 6.06 server on my laptop (which is very well supported hardware wise) and the kernel will not load.
[09:44] <jimmy__> salu
[09:44] <Bennedetto> all i get is "Uncompressing linux... Ok, booting the kernel."
[09:44] <Bennedetto> and then nothing else
[09:44] <Ensiferum> hehe
[09:44] <Ayabara> what app do you guys use to rip music? sound juicer is nice, but it "errors" on me all the time..
[09:44] <Ensiferum> \o/
[09:44] <Ensiferum> linux is a lovely hacker system
[09:45] <Ensiferum> its never gonna be good for the general public unless someone starts throwing some serious money/resources at it.
[09:45] <SanketMedhi> !music
[09:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about music - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:45] <Stardog> when typing "sudo glxgears -printfps" i could test my fps... but not now anymore.....  anyone know why?
[09:45] <Chousuke> Ensiferum: Um.
[09:45] <Frankenstein> ok, whats the easiest way to upgrade from breezy to the latest? i have a fast internet connection
[09:45] <CokeNCode> Ensiferum yes it is. Better not be hacking MY system tho :@
[09:45] <Bennedetto> anyone got any ideas on my issue
[09:45] <Bennedetto> ?
[09:45] <Chousuke> Ensiferum: Someone _is_ throwing serious money/resources at it.
[09:45] <ranpha> hi, i'm using wine to get a program wrking. None of the ppl at #winehq want to help me and i was getting close. But then i came to a idea that there aother program winlib or something, does this work?
[09:45] <Ada1> does anyone know how to mount a .dmg file?
[09:45] <krism> Bennedetto : try "noacpi" on the boot command line
[09:46] <CokeNCode> Ensiferum does the name Shuttlesworth ring a bell ?
[09:46] <CokeNCode> lol
[09:46] <Ackeubu_> Ada1, you open it with mac os x?
[09:46] <Ensiferum> CokeNCode: sorry but no mate. just see all these problems, theres not a single linux installation without problems popping right up.
[09:46] <Ensiferum> Even though Ubuntu is doing a fairly good job but it just still isnt *there*
[09:46] <Bennedetto> krism ok
[09:46] <CokeNCode> "there" ?
[09:46] <Chousuke> Where's there?
[09:46] <Chousuke> :D
[09:46] <krism> Ensiferum : don't you have homwork to do?
[09:46] <Chousuke> Okay
 Hi there, - I've installed ubuntu, then i installed linux and it overwrote grub on the MBR, how do i activate grub again rather than windows loading
[09:46] <Dr4g> -
[09:46] <Chousuke> to #ubuntu-offtopic. :)
[09:46] <CokeNCode> for what ? ... it does everything the average user needs to do pretty well
[09:46] <Ada1> Ackeubu_: but is it possible to open it in linux
[09:46] <Chousuke> We can continue there.
[09:46] <abo> I'm having a problem with grub after I resized/moved my partitions, can anyone help?
[09:47] <Dr4g> Wait
[09:47] <Ensiferum> krism: nope too busy hacking the kernel and fixing it ;)
[09:47] <Dr4g> i mis-typed what i wrote
[09:47] <Dr4g> re read this please.
[09:47] <krism> Dr4g : give "grub-install" a try
[09:47] <SonicChao> !grub > Dr4g
[09:47] <Dr4g> wait :P
[09:47] <krism> Ensiferum : in what language?
[09:47] <krism> lol Dr4g
[09:47] <Ensiferum> in c
[09:47] <Dr4g> Hi there, - I've installed ubuntu, then i installed windows and it overwrote grub on the MBR, how do i activate grub again rather than windows loading
[09:47] <Bennedetto> krism: nope
[09:47] <Dr4g> ^^^^
[09:47] <Stardog> when typing "sudo glxgears -printfps" i could test my fps... but not now anymore.....  anyone know why?
[09:47] <krism> Ensiferum : heh. last guy who made that claim told me "english"
[09:47] <SonicChao> !grub
[09:47] <void^> Ensiferum: (1) successful installs don't pop up here, (2) look at a windows related support channel, same thing different colour
[09:47] <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
[09:48] <Ackeubu_> Ada1 http://baghira.sourceforge.net/dmg.htm
[09:48] <SonicChao> Dr4g: Make sure to see ubotu's first link
[09:48] <Ensiferum> krism: heh
[09:48] <Dr4g> I just did
[09:48] <krism> Bennedetto : hmm. sorry, not sure.
[09:48] <Dr4g> thanks dude.
[09:48] <Dr4g> :)
[09:48] <Spec> krism: I program in english! :)
[09:48] <SonicChao> Dr4g: No problem. :)
[09:48] <krism> Spec : heh.. entertaining, anyway.
[09:48] <Flannel> Frankenstein: it can.  Well, if you have ubuntu currently
[09:48] <Ensiferum> im actually a progremmer by profession
[09:49] <Seveas> Frankenstein, in soviet russia, apt-get upgrades you
[09:49] <Ensiferum> allthough i hate c
[09:49] <Seveas> err
[09:49] <Ada1> Ackeubu_: I followed those instructions but I get an error: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[09:49] <Ada1>        missing codepage or other error
[09:49] <Seveas> Frankenstein, yes, apt-get can upgrade your Ubuntu
[09:49] <a1ecks> do you guys like this site design? http://www.freemediaresources.com/sitedesigns/jaderabbit/
[09:49] <Spec> krism: python is basically english :p
[09:49] <Flannel> Stardog: it does.  Although you don't need the sudo.
[09:49] <Frankenstein> how ? lol
[09:49] <SonicChao> alecks: That is offtopic
[09:49] <Flannel> !tell Frankenstein about upgrade
[09:49] <SonicChao> Please say it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:49] <krism> Spec : hehe
[09:50] <Spec> !offtopic
[09:50] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:50] <Ensiferum> hmm, something ate my .fluxbox folder
[09:50] <Ensiferum> nice1
[09:50] <krism> Spec : so what would perl be? :)

[09:51] <kbrooks> I asm happy to announce that the next version of EasyUbuntu will include translations
[09:51] <Dr4g> .. /etc/grub/conf.. ?
[09:51] <krism> !paste > stardog
[09:51] <jeff_> hey guys
[09:51] <kbrooks> Dr4g: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:51] <SanketMedhi> charlesJacobs: didi you install libwine.deb?
[09:51] <jeff_> has anybody found a way to make free pc to phone calls?
[09:51] <Dr4g> oh yeah
[09:52] <Dr4g> its diff on ubuntu
[09:52] <krism> jeff_ : skype has free pc->phone for 2006
[09:52] <SanketMedhi> charlesJacobs: there are 3 DEBs you need to install, wine, wine-dev and libwine
[09:52] <SanketMedhi> :O
[09:52] <charlesJacobs> SanketMedhi: ahhhh thank you very much
[09:52] <SanketMedhi> krism: url?
[09:52] <Spec> krism: certaintly not english
[09:52] <TGM> I'm not entirely sure what I did but this has happend to me before and I'm rather set on it not happeneing again. Anyway, I'm currently useing an old hoary live disk because dapper drake stopped useing it's gui, it's all text logging in and everything and frankly I have no idea how to work with that is there a way I can get my gui back or can I just fix whatever is wrong with my old hoary install disk without loseing my files?
[09:52] <Frankenstein> ok that update manager says theres a new ubuntu avaliable but doesnt offer it to download
[09:52] <Spec> krism: perhaps engrish
[09:52] <Ackeubu_> Ada1, maybe this page has the solution? http://suncoastlug.org/faq.html
[09:52] <krism> SanketMedhi : http://skype.com/
[09:53] <SanketMedhi> lol ok
[09:53] <jeff_> krism: every time i try to make a phone call with skype it says call failed immediately
[09:53] <krism> Spec : maybe an engrish translation of a japanese book ;)
[09:53] <krism> jeff_ : hmm, never had that problem
[09:53] <jeff_> krism: you dial + then the country code then the area code then the number right?
[09:53] <Ackeubu_> Ada1, here in perticular: http://suncoastlug.org/faq.html#superblock
[09:53] <keito> i think spype's only free within the usa
[09:53] <SanketMedhi> krism: where is the announcement for free calls?
[09:54] <keito> pc to phone
[09:54] <SanketMedhi> yes it is
[09:54] <krism> jeff_ : yes, but it's only for the US.. so +1...
[09:54] <Kezer> hello i have some problems with ubuntu
[09:54] <Oni-Dracula> oh thank god they changed the vlc interface to gtk2
[09:54] <theapoc> What's that script thats like automatix, for gnome?
[09:54] <krism> SanketMedhi : let me hunt it down
[09:54] <Kezer> although i read sth about
[09:54] <aunes> how do I change the default behavior of the alt+click(and drag)?
[09:54] <jeff_> krism: iw as able to make a free cal to my aunt yesterday, we're both in canada
[09:54] <krism> jeff_ : hmm.. maybe they changed it?
[09:55] <neopsyche> Whahahahah!  LOL is this a joke ->  http://everydaybusinessonline.com/speed.htm  ??? LOL!  ;-) Can someone really increase their internet speed like this???
[09:55] <jeff_> krism: i was able to make one today too, it seems i can only make one a day or something
[09:55] <krism> SanketMedhi : http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/05/16/0233219 is the /. story on it
[09:55] <keito> jeff_, canada is also free
[09:55] <SanketMedhi> ok
[09:55] <jeff_> keito: yeah, so how come i keep getting call failed?
[09:55] <neopsyche> Looks like a hoax though.
[09:55] <Ensiferum> i think im gonna start writing a kernel module as a next project
[09:56] <krism> neopsyche : lol why?
[09:56] <keito> jeff_, i have no idea, as i haven't used skype for linux yet
[09:56] <Ada1> Ackeubu_: I didn't find anything there any other suggestions?
[09:56] <nihilocrat> neopsyche: well, you can cache stuff, but that's about it
[09:56] <keito> could it be a hardware error?
[09:56] <jeff_> keito: ok
[09:56] <keito> have you talked to other skype users?
[09:56] <keito> on skype
[09:56] <Spec> theapoc: easyubuntu?
[09:56] <krism> keito : used to use it all the time for WoW ;)
[09:56] <theapoc> Spec: Yes, thats it. THANK YOU!
[09:56] <jeff_> keito: no, im brand new to it and dont know anybody
[09:56] <SanketMedhi> !easyubuntu
[09:56] <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.
[09:57] <protocol1> theres no other way you can speed up your internet service through software unless you run a web cache system as an alternative
[09:57] <keito> jeff_, i see.. did you try making a test call?
[09:57] <jeff_> how?
[09:57] <GStubbs43> Whenever I try to use a sudo command, the terminal says: 'sudo: must be setuid root'
[09:57] <jeff_> keito: how?
[09:57] <Dr4g> grub> root(hd0,0)
[09:57] <Dr4g> Error 27: Unrecognized comma
[09:57] <keito> i thought there were some test thingie you could call
[09:57] <krism> http://www.skype.com/products/skypeout/rates/all_rates.html shows skype->phone calls are free in the US and Canada
[09:57] <Dr4g> wtf ?
[09:58] <krism> keito : Test123 i believe
[09:58] <protocol1> but even that has limits such as websites that are not as updated as you like
[09:58] <keito> yeah, krism, that's probably right
[09:58] <keito> no
[09:58] <keito> wait
[09:58] <jeff_> also, does anybody know a good app launcher like kde's katapult but for gnome?
[09:58] <keito> it's actually echo123
[09:58] <seamus_ie> hey all
[09:58] <Dr4g> krism help me dude
[09:58] <Dr4g> grub prompt erroring on me
[09:58] <Dr4g> grub> root(hd0,0)
[09:58] <Dr4g> Error 27: Unrecognized comma
[09:58] <Stardog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17948  anyone know why?
[09:59] <keito> jeff_, try calling echo123
[09:59] <jeff_> keito: do i have to add them to my list or something?
[09:59] <krism> Dr4g : hmm, lemme look at the docs quick
[09:59] <Dr4g> ok..
[09:59] <Dr4g> i'm typing this straight in from the ubuntu site
[09:59] <keito> jeff_, probably. but you can remove it afterwards
[09:59] <Dr4g> its wierd
[09:59] <jeff_> ok
[09:59] <mike1> Any able to help with hostp?  DWL 520 rev E.  I had it working then it stopped
[10:00] <mike1> hostap
[10:00] <avalanche> Heyho at all :) I am pretty new to ubuntu and apt, so you may consider my question to be rather dumb, but is it possible to let apt (/aptitude) install a certain version of a package? I need to use the old X11R6 because there's no driver available for X11R7.
[10:00] <Ackeubu_> Ada1, sry i cant find very much else that could be usefull
[10:00] <jeff_> keito: krism: it says problem with sound device
[10:00] <paied> woo ubuntu cd's came in the mail today
[10:00] <paied> linux user group will == the happy
[10:00] <keito> jeff_, ouch
[10:00] <Ada1> Ackeubu_: ok thanks
[10:00] <krism> jeff_ : look on www.ubuntuforums.org, lots of info about it
[10:01] <Dr4g> krism: any luck ?
[10:01] <krism> Dr4g : are you looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows ?
[10:01] <keito> jeff_, you need to figure out how to get your microphone working first
[10:01] <Dr4g> Yes!
[10:01] <keito> krism, do you know if skype is using alsa or oss?
[10:01] <krism> keito : i believe it can use either
[10:02] <keito> hmm
[10:02] <jeff_> keito: im using a plantronics headset, it shows up in ekiga
[10:02] <krism> Dr4g : at you want grub in the MBR?
[10:02] <esher> hey, my openoffice seems to be broken, the fonts in the menu-task are not correct, its not readable ...
[10:02] <Spec> avalanche: the solution is called pinning i believe
[10:02] <Dr4g> krism, btw the paste i said "unrecognised comma" and its supposed to be  "unrecognised command"
[10:02] <Spec> avalanche: i would suggest searching the ubuntu wiki: wiki.ubuntu.com for apt and perhaps pinning
[10:02] <Spec> !pinning
[10:02] <ubotu> pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PinningHowto
[10:02] <Dr4g> krism yes i want it on MBR to overwrite windows
[10:02] <Dr4g> so i can setup bootloader
[10:03] <Dr4g> dual boot**
[10:03] <avalanche> Spec: Thanks :)
[10:03] <keito> Jeeves_, click Applications, Sound & Video, Sound Recorder. record a sample and try playing it afterwards
[10:03] <krism> Dr4g : can you PM me a list of what you've done so far?
[10:03] <Dr4g> krism
[10:03] <Dr4g> ok
[10:03] <Stardog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17948  anyone know why?
[10:03] <Dr4g> Sent

[10:07] <aztun> hi
[10:07] <keito> :)
[10:09] <aztun> wich tool es better for dapper?? automatix or easyubuntu???
[10:09] <frying_fish> aztun: why not get the packages yourself,
[10:09] <Minty> installed unrar how do I get it to work ?
[10:09] <frying_fish> that way you know what you have for it then.
[10:10] <aztun> frying_fish: I just wanna know wich is better
[10:10] <aztun> to save some time
[10:10] <frying_fish> Minty: unrar x /path/to/file
[10:11] <frying_fish> aztun: oh, ok, I personally don't use either, I like to control all my packages, not use some random script to install a load of stuff I will never use.
[10:11] <ricardo_> hello! Im having problems installing sagcad, can anyone help me?
[10:12] <Ada1> how do I mount a .cue .bin file in linux?
[10:12] <Ada1> I have file images that I want to open
[10:12] <sztanpet> Ada1  mount -o loop
[10:12] <aztun> frying_fish: I use to do that on my own machine
[10:12] <Minty> frying_fish: sorry but still a noob, have done unrar 2006-07-13.rar /home/trevor that does not work
[10:12] <kbrooks> aztun: easyubuntu is good. AX gives u more control
[10:12] <ricardo_> it says that it cant find the script gtk-config
[10:12] <aztun> but Im just looking for an easy and quick way to put ubuntu on a friends computer
[10:13] <frying_fish> Minty: no
[10:13] <Ada1> sztanpet: I need the complete syntax
[10:13] <sztanpet> Ada1  then try man mount
[10:13] <frying_fish> it needs to be unrar x 2006-07-13.rar /home/trevor/
[10:13] <aztun> Minty: try unrar -h for help
[10:13] <Ackeubu_> hey how do i format a cd?
[10:13] <segadora> bgjjjj
[10:13] <samuel> sup all
[10:13] <ketetha_> :(
[10:13] <aztun> i think is unrar e /path/to/rar
[10:13] <samuel> how do i stop a service?
[10:13] <TheStonepedo> Ackeubu_: i don't think you have to format CD-Rs
[10:14] <stefg> Ackeubu_: normally you don't
[10:14] <Ada1> sztanpet: what format do I use  for -t
[10:14] <TheStonepedo> Ackeubu_: what do you mean "format"?
[10:14] <samuel> with the special program, not doing /etc/init.d/service stop
[10:14] <Ackeubu_> its not a cdr
[10:14] <Ackeubu_> its a cdrw
[10:14] <aztun> samuel: /etc/init.d/service stop
[10:14] <skavenge> hey guys i usually use gxine for dvds, i ripped one to .iso and am running it off the hdd with vlc player, and it is choppy in full screen, anyone know why? im using the x11 output for vlc, xvideo (the default) doesnt show colors right for some reason ..
[10:14] <sztanpet> Ada1 dunno
[10:14] <teknoprep> how do i disable emulate 3rd button?
[10:14] <TheStonepedo> Ackeubu_: do you want to erase a CD-RW?
[10:14] <teknoprep> i can't find the optoin
[10:14] <reiki_work> !info lineak
[10:14] <Ackeubu_> yes
[10:14] <ubotu> Package lineak does not exist in dapper
[10:14] <aztun> Ackeubu_: I use k3b for that
[10:14] <TheStonepedo> Ackeubu_: i use k3b for that.
[10:14] <Raul654> I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 - is there a way to install ImageMagick other than from source? (e.g, is there a .deb somewhere)?
[10:14] <InitMass> i've got an internal soundcard and one external usb. before the upgrade to dapper i used the usb card as default and i have set it to that again. i have also tried "killall esd && esd -d hw:1" but rhythmbox and totem are still using the internal card. what's wrong?
[10:14] <Ackeubu_> ty
[10:14] <TheStonepedo> aztun :)
[10:14] <pike_> Ackeubu_: use k3b it will wipe the cdrw for you before it writes
[10:15] <samuel> aztun, there is a special program... something like "service httpd stop" or something like that, how is that?
[10:15] <aztun> :)
[10:15] <jrib> Raul654: imagemagick is in the repositories, use your favorite apt program
[10:15] <kbrooks> samuel: thats on redhat
[10:15] <stefg> skavenge: graphics adapter trouble then... no xv means choppy video by design
[10:15] <enyc> Raul654: check in universe too etc....
[10:15] <redguy> Raul654: AFAIR there was some strange name for that package
[10:15] <enyc> Raul654: check via http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[10:15] <samuel> kbrooks, also on debian, not the same... but something similar
[10:15] <Raul654> E: Couldn't find package ImageMagick
[10:15] <jrib> !info imagemagick
[10:15] <ubotu> imagemagick: Image manipulation programs. In repository main, is optional. Version 6:6.2.4.5-0.6 (dapper), package size 1576 kB, installed size 4064 kB
[10:15] <kbrooks> samuel: you use /etc/init.d/service stop (replace service)
[10:16] <Raul654> doh
[10:16] <jrib> Raul654: all lowercase
[10:16] <reiki_work> if I pull my PS2 connected keyboard and mouse...and replace them with USB connected ones...will Dapper automagically "discover" teh change on next boot or will I have to edit stuff?
[10:16] <kbrooks> Raul654: case matters
[10:16] <Raul654> casing
[10:16] <enyc> reiki_work: well
[10:16] <enyc> Penguin_: probably will
[10:16] <Raul654> thanks
[10:16] <enyc> reiki_work: err probabl will work
[10:16] <aztun> reiki_work: sure will work without edi anything
[10:16] <reiki_work> ok thanks... just checking...
[10:16] <Minty> aztun: it caus I running unrar free how do I get unrar non free
[10:16] <redguy> hrmm, seems I was wrong
[10:17] <Ada1> how do I mount a .cue .bin file in linux?
[10:17] <enyc> reiki_work: you can use either or both iirc....  nothing wrong with ps2/usb connection etc....
[10:17] <TheStonepedo> reiki_work: i don't think you have to reboot to use USB keyboard and mouse
[10:17] <reiki_work> also (sorry...taking a break at work)... if I get a USB2.0 DVD burner... see any issues with that or should it be fine?
[10:17] <kbrooks> Minty: unrar-nonfree
[10:17] <Minty> apt-get install ??
[10:17] <harold> i'm on amd64 and a app i'm trying to use (openinsight) errors with:error while loading shared libraries: libpthread.so.0: cannot open shared object file. i made a link to it in it's folder but still no dice. any help?
[10:17] <enyc> reiki_work: shouldnt be really... just ATAPI(SCSI) commands over usb storage thing...
[10:17] <enyc> reiki_work: though ieee1394 is better suited interface
[10:17] <TheStonepedo> reiki_work: i had my new USB keyboard plugged in while my old (and broken) PS/2 keyboard was plugged in and both worked.
[10:18] <ubuntu> hello
[10:18] <enyc> ubuntu: meep
[10:18] <reiki_work> enyc: think I should stick a 1394 card in and go firewire instead?
[10:18] <d2812> does anybody know how to save the output from the ubuntu device database reporting tool and submit it at a later date from a different machine?
[10:18] <enyc> reiki_work: well ... you see.... IEEE1394 is better for multitasking and lower cpu usage etc.
[10:18] <TheStonepedo> hi ubuntu.  if you want to use a more personalized nickname type /nick followed by your new nickname
[10:18] <reiki_work> I didn't think optical drives were fast enough to saturate teh bus anyways
[10:19] <enyc> reiki_work: event nthough usb 2.0 has a higher peak transfer speed on-the-bus than ieee1394 it doesnt really work out faster in practice ;-)
[10:19] <reiki_work> enyc: thank you. I just didn't want to spend the money for a SATA DVDRW just yet
[10:20] <Drakeson> what's wrong! my sound has just got b0rked. (edgy, dist-upgrade)
[10:20] <enyc> reiki_work: kk
[10:20] <Stardog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17949  it worked before... not now.... :/
[10:20] <enyc> reiki_work: PATA works fine too ;-)
[10:20] <kbrooks> Drakeson: #ubuntu+1
[10:20] <TheStonepedo> there are SATA disc drives?
[10:20] <Drakeson> kbrooks: sorry, thanks
[10:21] <reiki_work> enyc: yeah... but if I replace my plextor CDRW with a DVD burner... I am thinking I'll either go external so my wife can use it on her laptop as well... or I'd go SATA just to start moving away from teh IDE controller
[10:21] <elzair> Does anyone know if a Cowon iAudio U2 works well with Linux?
[10:21] <reiki_work> TheStonepedo: the only SATA DVD burners I've seen so far are made by Plextor
[10:21] <enyc> reiki_work: PATA you mean... ok
[10:21] <gord-on-5672> elzair... I've got a X5 and it works perfectly
[10:21] <__doc__> hi, it's strange. When I turn on my pc and boot ubuntu, my wireless connection only comes up when I've opened the tool to configure it from the Windows Wireless Drivers settings.
[10:22] <__doc__> any idea?
[10:22] <TheStonepedo> reiki_work: iirc there's was a physical limit on the rate at which optical media could spin without failing catastrophically.  PATA transfer rates are plenty high for the amount of data that can actually be read/written using optical media.
[10:22] <reiki_work> enyc: no... I was looking at a SATA DVD burner

[10:22] <Minty> help am stuck with this unrar-nonfree how do I get it please, apt get does not find it
[10:22] <joachim-n> any gedit users in tonight?
[10:22] <TheStonepedo> if you have a PATA interface with an open spot on the cable, you'll do just as well as using a new SATA optical drive
[10:22] <enyc> reiki_work: yes... you mean lookin g at not using the PATA-ide channel(s)/controller
[10:22] <TheStonepedo> joachim-n: vi ftw.  what's up with your gedit?
[10:22] <enyc> reiki_work: but rather using SATA-ide device
[10:23] <joachim-n> nothing, I'm currently working on the gedit manual. taking requests :)
[10:23] <Dr4g> boo
[10:23] <elzair> The Amazon Product Description states "Using Macintosh or Linux platforms? You can still use the U2 as a portable hard drive (file transfer only)." However, the Cowon website does not state this, so I do not know whom to believe.
[10:23] <Dr4g> when krism comes back - ask him to PM me please
[10:23] <Dr4g> He just went offline
[10:23] <reiki_work> enyc: correct... that's what I meant :)
[10:23] <Dr4g> Thanks.
[10:24] <TheStonepedo> joachim-n, how about a gedit/vi or gedit/emacs switch guide.  so users of other editors can quickly transition to gedit and learn keyboard shortcuts
[10:24] <joachim-n> interesting idea... but I don't know emacs or vi
[10:24] <reiki_work> and I THINK I have enough information to go home and try doing some keyboard mapping to get the extra keys on my logitech cordless keyboard working :)
[10:24] <Gorlist> Hi, got a couple of questions regarding Ubuntu 32 bit/64 bit
[10:25] <Frankenstein> !upgrade
[10:25] <gord-on-5672> elzair: No it works for audio, files... it mounts just like an external harddrive
[10:25] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[10:25] <Foobal> joachim-n: just document how to make dynamic links from vi* and emacs* to gedit and that's it
[10:25] <Gorlist> Have an AMD 64, whats the difference between 32 and 64 bit version of buntu?
[10:25] <reiki_work> 32
[10:25] <BHSPitMonkey> ha
[10:25] <Gorlist> I mean, does it do any harm if I install 32
[10:25] <reiki_work> WHEEEE!  I WIN!
[10:25] <reiki_work> no it won't hurt anything
[10:25] <BHSPitMonkey> Gorlist, nope, you just won't be using those other 32 bits you have handy :P
[10:26] <reiki_work> I'm running 32bit on intel dual core that's capable of doing 64bit
[10:26] <ChrisOKC> AMD 64 chips handle both 32 bit and 64 bit
[10:26] <TheStonepedo> reiki_work: i used the gnome "keyboard shortcuts" options to setup the extra keys on my keyboard.
[10:26] <Gorlist> ok, if I do install 64 bit will their be anyproblems?
[10:26] <reiki_work> *shrug*
[10:26] <Gorlist> in regards to drivers etc?>
[10:26] <BHSPitMonkey> probably
[10:26] <TheStonepedo> Gorlist: 64 bit memory addressing
[10:26] <Gorlist> ... English please!
[10:26] <BHSPitMonkey> all that I hear about 64bit OS's are that they're unstab;e
[10:26] <TheStonepedo> that's currently the difference between 64 bit and 32 bit computing
[10:26] <Gorlist> Win64 xp has loads of problems
[10:26] <krang> I'm trying to register nessus, and it's telling me that I need to run /opt/nessus/bin/nessus-fetch, which isn't there (or anywhere else). What's up here? I apt-got nessus and nessusd
[10:26] <Spec> Gorlist: you'll have problems with wireless drivers probably
[10:26] <reiki_work> TheStonepedo: I tried that but the identifiers don't tell me what key I would be modifying :)  ... 0cb3 or whatever... which key is THAT? :)
[10:27] <Gorlist> ok another question,
[10:27] <elzair> gord-on-5672: will the player recognize and play the audio files transferred from the Linux comp?
[10:27] <ChrisOKC> I'm having an issue with ubuntu 5.10, during install i get "starting up the partitioner" and it freezes at 52%
[10:27] <Gorlist> is it hard to remove or adjust a grub boot loader say if I remove Buntu?
[10:27] <tuxtux> ciao
[10:27] <Spec> Gorlist: no
[10:27] <Gorlist> & could I upgrade the 32 bit version to 64 using the pacakage manager?
[10:27] <Spec> Gorlist: probably not
[10:27] <Spec> Gorlist: i would imagine that to not be possible
[10:28] <Gorlist> what would you recommend? I mean its my fathers computer, going to run duel boot and hes got 64 bit processors
[10:28] <TheStonepedo> reiki_work: why not just go down the line and write a list of the label on your key and the output code?  you could submit it to a gnome developer along with the model of your keyboard and likely get it incorporated into the keyboard shortcuts program in the near future.
[10:28] <roxlu> does anyone maybe know a tool I can use for streaming video in my webpage?
[10:28] <BHSPitMonkey> Gorlist, what does your father do on the computer?
[10:28] <Spec> Gorlist: try installing ubuntu 64-bit
[10:28] <Gorlist> ok thanks
[10:28] <Gorlist> will go and download it :)
[10:28] <reiki_work> TheStonepedo: using xev to do that?
[10:28] <ChrisOKC> I'm having an issue with ubuntu 5.10, during install i get "starting up the partitioner" and it freezes at 52%
[10:28] <Spec> Gorlist: you don't use wireless on that comp, do you?
[10:29] <BHSPitMonkey> unless he does something with a demand for 64bit, Gorlist (like specialty multimedia work), then I'd say go with the 32
[10:29] <Stardog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17949  it worked before... not now.... :/
[10:29] <TheStonepedo> Gorlist: the irony of "duel boot" is amazing.  windows has a reputation of trying to kill linux if they're not installed in the right order.
[10:29] <ChrisOKC> on an intel pIII 766 Mhz 64 MB RAM
[10:29] <Spec> TheStonepedo: it doesn't kill linux, it just kills the MBR
[10:29] <tin_nqn> hello people
[10:29] <BHSPitMonkey> TheStonepedo, you just have to be smarter than windows. (which isn't much of a feat :D)
[10:29] <Minty> where are my sources list stock etc/ ???
[10:29] <Whil> hiya room
[10:29] <Spec> Minty: /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:29] <dawnfading> hi all
[10:30] <Minty> thanks
[10:30] <tin_nqn> I'm looking for a tutorial to install ubuntu in a Mac G3
[10:30] <TheStonepedo> Spec: whatever it does, you must agree that swapping "dual" and "duel" in that situation was hilarious
[10:30] <Some_Person> I'm trying to play these formats in Rhythmbox: MMS, MP3, WMA; Would gstreamer0.10-pitfdll, gstreamer0.10-bad, gstreamer0.10-bad-multiverse, gstreamer0.10-ugly, and gstreamer0.10-ugly-multiverse do it?
[10:30] <Spec> TheStonepedo: that is true :p
[10:30] <ChrisOKC> I'm having an issue with ubuntu 5.10, during install i get "starting up the partitioner" and it freezes at 52%
[10:30] <ChrisOKC> on an intel pIII 766 Mhz 64 MB RAM
[10:30] <krang> So, er, nobody here has ever got nessus running on ubuntu?
[10:30] <Spec> !anybody
[10:30] <nitche> Some_Person, for wma you need one more plugin
[10:30] <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?
[10:30] <DracoDan|LT> is it possible to mount a freebsd filesystem from ubuntu?
[10:30] <Spec> !nessus
[10:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about nessus - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:30] <BHSPitMonkey> ChrisOKC, that RAM is a problem
[10:30] <Whil> dual boot? snicker snicker
[10:31] <dawnfading> i'm taking a shot at C programming, but can't find my standard libraries like stdio, is there a package in synaptic for this?
[10:31] <Spec> !glxgears
[10:31] <ubotu> To display the FPS in glxgears, run 'glxgears -printfps' in a terminal.
[10:31] <nitche> Some_Person,  w32codecs
[10:31] <TheStonepedo> Some_Person: dapper comes with gstreamer 10
[10:31] <nitche> for wma
[10:31] <Spec> maybe they disabled -printfps
[10:31] <Ensiferum> dawnfading: build-essential
[10:31] <ChrisOKC> how so?
[10:31] <BHSPitMonkey> I have... septuple boot or something going :)
[10:31] <DracoDan|LT> anyone?
[10:31] <Gorlist> I see
[10:31] <Spec> DracoDan|LT: yes
[10:31] <d2812> Does anybody know how to save the output from the ubuntu device database reporting tool and submit it at a later date from a different machine? I have access to ~30 different toshibas at work, and want to run the livecd to generate a report for the device database. The problem is that I wouldnt be able to put them on the company network, so they wouldnt be able to report back. I would be able to put the reports on a flashdrive and submit from home though.
[10:31] <Spec> DracoDan|LT: what type of filesystem does freebsd use?
[10:32] <Raito> How would I change the file asociations in gnome?
[10:32] <DracoDan|LT> one sec
[10:32] <keito> does anyone else here use the 686 kernels?
[10:32] <Spec> !anyone
[10:32] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[10:32] <Ensiferum> keito: yes
[10:32] <Spec> Raito: try gconf or gconftool or something like that
[10:32] <Spec> !gconf
[10:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about gconf - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:32] <Spec> !search gconf
[10:32] <ubotu> Found: add desktop-#ubuntu-xgl, icons, gconf-#ubuntu-xgl, snap top-#ubuntu-xgl, splash, keys-#ubuntu-xgl
[10:32] <Rizenine> How do you clean out unused dependencies?
[10:32] <shwag> how do I list the contents of an installed package ?
[10:32] <keito> Ensiferum, oh! you know, it was the kernel that was the problem
[10:33] <tin_nqn> Specificly, How can I install ubuntu in a Mac saving the installed OS and data
[10:33] <Ensiferum> keito: what problem?
[10:33] <keito> with my intel hda sound, if you do remember
[10:33] <ubuntu_Iz> anyone available for helping me access my windows share from ubuntu?
[10:33] <Spec> tin_nqn: put in the 6.06 desktop cd and double click the 'install' icon
[10:33] <Ensiferum> keito: aha
[10:33] <Ensiferum> keito: so it works now?
[10:33] <Spec> tin_nqn: you'll get a choice to resize previous partition and dual boot ubuntu i believe
[10:33] <Minty> jus screwed my sources list up with automatix any wy of re creating it ?
[10:33] <keito> i booted 2.6.15-25-686 now, and it does indeed work
[10:33] <Ensiferum> keito: ok
[10:33] <Spec> Minty: edit /etc/apt/sources.list yourself
[10:33] <Spec> !sources.list
[10:33] <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
[10:33] <Ensiferum> keito: prolly not a problem in the kernel though
[10:34] <Raito> Spec: err, well I tried gconf-editor but I can't find out where file associations are. The one in the system menu only has internet mail and terminal for some odd reason
[10:34] <Gorlist> whats the difference between the Desktop CD and Server CD download?
[10:34] <Ensiferum> rather in the configuraiton somewhere
[10:34] <gord-on-5672> elzair: Yes, the player does recognize audio files copied from linux onto it. MP3/OGG/WMA all work
[10:34] <Spec> !easysource
[10:34] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[10:34] <Spec> Minty: ^^
[10:34] <Gorlist> does it install different packages?
[10:34] <DracoDan|LT> spec: looks like UFS
[10:34] <Stardog> glxgears -printfps telling u wont work in my terminal... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17949 for msg i get....
[10:34] <Spec> Raito: you'll have to dig around gconf-editor :-/
[10:34] <Spec> Raito: i know it can be done (to an extent)
[10:34] <BHSPitMonkey> hmm... glxgears is telling me around 850fps, but it looks choppy to me... is it because of my inferior human eyes? :P
[10:34] <keito> Ensiferum, i'm not sure about that. i booted 2.6.15-26-386, and my sound worked there
[10:34] <Spec> !ufs
[10:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about ufs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:34] <Raito> uhh, ok
[10:34] <Spec> whaaa
[10:35] <godtvisken> how do i specify a username and password with telnet?
[10:35] <Gorlist> whats the difference between the Desktop CD and Server CD download?
[10:35] <Spec> Gorlist: server cd is a minimal install
[10:35] <BHSPitMonkey> Gorlist, a server installation doesn't have a GUI
[10:35] <__doc__> anybody an idea why I need to "enable" my wireless connection at *every* reboot before it starts working?
[10:35] <ubuntu_Iz> the server doesn't have a gui and can't be run from the cd
[10:35] <Gorlist> Ok right I see
[10:35] <BHSPitMonkey> that too
[10:35] <Minty> can do that with gedit but what do I put in it ??
[10:35] <Gorlist> but it installed the same stuff :)
[10:35] <TheStonepedo> godtvisken: every telnet server i've connected to asks me for a username and password using prompts.  is that not the case for you?
[10:35] <BHSPitMonkey> __doc__, what utility do you use?
[10:35] <keito> godtvisken, telnet uses the accounts on your box
[10:35] <neopsyche_> does anyone know where i can get informaiton on tweaking gprs?
[10:35] <keito> ps. why not use ssh?
[10:35] <Spec> DracoDan|LT: have you tried: mount -t ufs /dev/whatever /media/whatever ?
[10:35] <__doc__> ndiswrapper
[10:36] <ubuntu_Iz> i need networking help when someone has a minute
[10:36] <EdLin> ubuntu_Iz: that's incorrect
[10:36] <tin_nqn> Spec, is possible to asign only a part of the free space for ubuntu?
[10:36] <__doc__> BHSPitMonkey: via the windows wireless drivers gui thingy
[10:36] <Spec> tin_nqn: yes, in the GUI partitioner
[10:36] <TheStonepedo> tin_nqn: run the live cd and gparted
[10:36] <skollie> ello
[10:36] <godtvisken> TheStonepedo, I am trying to telnet into my OpenWRT (WRT54G) router, but it just gives "Login failed."
[10:36] <veepster_> sanket, I am trying to install voiceone and its saying table 'cw_option doesnt exist'. I checked and it hasnt created a table called cw_option in my asterisk mysql database. any clue?
[10:36] <BHSPitMonkey> __doc__, I used that to INSTALL the card, but I have another little GNOME tool on my tray that lets me see/connect to networks
[10:36] <TheStonepedo> gparted lets you make and resize partitions, and once you've made the partitions you can choose which to use when installing
[10:36] <BHSPitMonkey> and it connects me automatically
[10:36] <shwag> how do I list the contents of an installed package ?
[10:37] <__doc__> BHSPitMonkey: what's it called that tool?
[10:37] <Spec> DracoDan|LT: if that doesn't work do: modprobe ufs;mount -t ufs /dev/whatever /media/whatever
[10:37] <DracoDan|LT> spec: i havent, but im about to, i just learned that its UFS
[10:37] <godtvisken> TheStonepedo, I am just using the command "telnet 192.168.1.129" which is the IP of it (the web interface works)
[10:37] <teknoprep> yo
[10:37] <TheStonepedo> godtvisken: i'm hella jealous.  i want one of those routers but i'm broke. :(  i'm looking for help with hacking my old BEFSR41 router so i can force it to restart every few hours
[10:37] <DracoDan|LT> i tried without -t and none of the defaults worked
[10:37] <InitMass> i've got an internal soundcard and one external usb. before the upgrade to dapper i used the usb card as default and i have set it to that again. i have also tried "killall esd && esd -d hw:1" but rhythmbox and totem are still using the internal card. what's wrong?
[10:37] <teknoprep> what is the crap i need for transparencies in gnome?
[10:37] <Spec> DracoDan|LT: be sure to: modprobe ufs
[10:38] <alterr> zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.1)  what means  1: ?
[10:38] <godtvisken> TheStonepedo, yeah.. we actually have two of them. i don't know why, but my dad had an extra laying around, so i reflashed the firmware so i could use it as a bridge and avoid the hassles of setting up a WUSB54G card in linux
[10:38] <keito> godtvisken, i use openwrt
[10:38] <BHSPitMonkey> __doc__, NetworkManager
[10:38] <keito> but why do you want to telnet?
[10:38] <BHSPitMonkey> it's in the repos
[10:38] <keito> ssh is better
[10:39] <godtvisken> keito, ok. so how do i do that?
[10:39] <keito> do it like this: ssh root@ip
[10:39] <Ensiferum> hmm, i dont necessarily need a ramdisk for booting the kernel do i?
[10:39] <EdLin> Ensiferum: that depends on what you've compiled into your kernel
[10:40] <Ensiferum> EdLin: how so?
[10:40] <Ensiferum> what does it do anyway?
[10:40] <Seng> join #ubuntu-fr
[10:40] <joeljkp> is there a consensus in programming about 80-character lines or 72-character lines?
[10:40] <EdLin> Ensiferum: if you need a particular module, such as a filesystem module, to load the system you'll need an initrd. That's why they exist.
[10:41] <finalbeta> Anyone can recommend an FTP server + GUI admin tool.
[10:41] <Stardog> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17949  it worked before... not now.... :/
[10:41] <hedonistic> I've downloaded gaim-guifications and a gaim theme, and after reading many forum posts I know that I need to find the guifications plugin window so that I can drag and drop my theme there for installation, but I have no idea where to find the guifications plugin window, can anyone help...I must be missing something simple
[10:42] <papo> finalbeta: there's something for proftpd
[10:42] <kbrooks> finalbeta: not me
[10:42] <godtvisken> keito, great, thanks
[10:42] <papo> finalbeta: though my personal opinion is that an ftp server should not be configured from a GUI
[10:42] <basschimp> hi guys
[10:42] <keito> godtvisken, no problem! openwrt is a fun distro
[10:42] <papo> finalbeta: http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/proftpweb.htm
[10:43] <finalbeta> papo, perhaps on linux that will be the case again.
[10:43] <godtvisken> keito, yeah.. it has solved my linux internet problems
[10:43] <basschimp> i'm running amarok (in gnome rather than KDE), and it's using near enough 100% CPU power when it's just playing tracks. any ideas about what's up?
[10:44] <papo> hedonistic: it's part of the application settings
[10:45] <papo> hedonistic: hit ctrl-p, enable the plugin and it will appear under 'plugins'
[10:45] <papo> hedonistic: at the bottom of the list at left side of the window
[10:45] <tuxtux> reboot
[10:46] <basschimp> should i be looking at changing the database settings, or the output engines or what?
[10:46] <dv_> could anyone explain me why Qt is considered evil.
[10:46] <hedonistic> papo, I hit ctrl-p and I get nothing and under tools>plugin actions under buddy list it is empty...
[10:46] <Ensiferum> ooo, its all done
[10:46] <basschimp> i'm not so bothered about CPU usage, but >93% of 2.4GHz is a bit excessive...
[10:46] <Ensiferum> time to boot into the new kernel
[10:46] <Ensiferum> :p
[10:46] <nihilocrat> yeeehaw
[10:47] <papo> hedonistic: you have to enable the plugin first
[10:47] <EdLin> dv_: it's not been evil for many years, at one time it was closed source, but it became GPL
[10:47] <papo> hedonistic: then there is a 'themes' tab
[10:47] <dv_> EdLin, yes, thats why I wonder that people STILL call it evil
[10:48] <EdLin> dv_: if they do they're dumb. ;-)
[10:48] <hedonistic> papo, how do I enable the plugin?
[10:48] <papo> finalbeta: what do you mean by 'again' ?
[10:48] <papo> hedonistic: if you click on 'plugins' you get a list of plugins you can enable
[10:48] <papo> hedonistic: after you enabled it, it's a sub-item of 'plugins'
[10:49] <ubuntu_Iz> woah
[10:49] <ubuntu_Iz> i completely lost my applications menu
[10:49] <MystaMax> I'm trying to execute "./vmware-install.pl" and I'm getting the following error: "sudo: unable to execute ./vmware-install.pl: Permission denied" but i'm not sure why
[10:49] <Minty> I over wrote my sources file using Automatix http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17953  should I change anything or should I leave it as it is because now i  synaptics the list is all different
[10:49] <Whil> Anybody know what an egg_desktop error means?
[10:50] <hedonistic> papo, I single click on the gaim icon in the system tray and I get the buddy list, under tools plugins is not a choice, only plugin actions, which is empty....I've looked through preferences and every other sub-menu I can find as well
[10:50] <papo> hedonistic: yes it's in the preferences. Hold on I'll make a screenshot
[10:50] <finalbeta> papo, nothing but the obvious.
[10:50] <void^> MystaMax: perhaps, chmod +x vmware-install.pl
[10:51] <infamy> any one have any luck installing ubuntu on a caompaq smart array?
[10:51] <hippie23> does anybody know it Xgl and compiz work with xfce4?
[10:51] <hedonistic> papo, ok, I think I've found it
[10:51] <papo> hedonistic: ok :)
[10:51] <hedonistic> papo, thanks much, right there in front of me the whole time
[10:52] <papo> hedonistic: in the prefs there is an item 'plugins'. There you first have to enable guifications
[10:52] <papo> ok, np, yw
[10:52] <Seveas> hippie23, theoretically
[10:53] <Whil> Anybody know what an egg_desktop error means?
[10:53] <Minty> Whil: not me sorry
[10:53] <Seveas> Whil, that the chickens took over your machine
[10:53] <Seveas> and that something goes wrong with the notification area non your panel
[10:53] <Whil> I'm serious. I get this error from time to time when installing packages,but it doesn't seem to affect anything
[10:54] <paied> woot i got some ubuntu stickers!!
[10:54] <BHSPitMonkey> those stickers are oddly-shaped
[10:54] <paied> came with the cds ^_^
[10:54] <harold> the icon for firefox in my title bar (better name?) is a generic window icon. how can i fix it?
[10:54] <paied> yes they are!
[10:54] <BHSPitMonkey> ([10:54] <paied> yep
[10:54] <paied> but they are still stickers!
[10:55] <BHSPitMonkey> I could do without the gay guy on the CD's cover, too :P
[10:55] <coucho> hi
[10:55] <MystaMax> void^, its weird i ran, " sudo perl vmware-uninstall.pl" any idea why i had to do that?
[10:55] <papo> harold: right click, settings (or similar) and change the symbol
[10:55] <coucho> my server isn't accepting my vnc connection, what to do?
[10:55] <void^> MystaMax: it probably wasn't set as executable.
[10:55] <BHSPitMonkey> coucho, your server has a desktop?
[10:56] <paied> where do these cd's ship from?
[10:56] <papo> harold: or if it's ok in the menu, just right click on the menu item and put it on the menu bar
[10:56] <paied> the mailing label does not say, only my address.
[10:56] <coucho> BHSPitMonkey, yes it does, just in case
[10:56] <Spec> paied: africa i think
[10:56] <paied> serious?
[10:56] <BHSPitMonkey> lol
[10:56] <Spec> paied: yes....
[10:56] <BHSPitMonkey> the Isle of Man!
[10:56] <Spec> paied: ubuntu started in africa
[10:56] <harold> papo, i meant in the actual firefox window. the menu icon is fine
[10:56] <Spec> ubuntu is an african word
[10:56] <hippie23> I wonder why my system rus faster with Xgl, all that eye candy, you would expect a slow down, not a speed up, whats up with that?
[10:56] <BHSPitMonkey> they probably ship from wherever they have the cd's pressed
[10:56] <MystaMax> void^, i checked, and this is what it says when i run ls -lh on for that file, lrwxrwxrwx  1 mystamax mystamax   23 2006-07-13 16:22 vmware-install.pl -> bin/v mware-uninstall.pl
[10:56] <paied> don't ... me, the african word could have just be a silly theme =p
[10:56] <paied> :)
[10:56] <Spec> why wouldn't the cds ship from africa?
[10:56] <CoOlGhOsT> installed network-manager to manage wireless. i can choose the option of connecting to an existing network or create or new. only problem is that i cannot choose wpa for security... only 3 levels of WEP is available in the drop down box
[10:57] <MystaMax> void^, i appreciate the help btw
[10:57] <coucho> BHSPitMonkey: do you know what i can do to fix it?
[10:57] <BHSPitMonkey> paied, read about Canonical
[10:57] <Ackeubu_> My cache is on 75 % but I am not using any application... Thats kindof weird isnt it?
[10:57] <paied> i dunno, i never got a package from africa before
[10:57] <papo> harold: ah ok, then I don't know, sorry
[10:57] <paied> i got stuff from france once
[10:57] <Spec> Ubuntu is not a silly word, :p
[10:57] <void^> MystaMax: that's a symbolic link, check permissions on the file it's pointing to
[10:57] <BHSPitMonkey> coucho, not reall
[10:57] <coucho> ok
[10:57] <Spec> !ubuntu
[10:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[10:57] <CoOlGhOsT> anyone with ideas?
[10:57] <Spec> bah, i tdoesn't even mention what it means
[10:57] <paied> i know what it means
[10:57] <paied> but it still could have just been a silly theme
[10:57] <eric> USB mouse and keyboard aren't working on my Dapper Box... just installed them.
[10:57] <paied> and not real
[10:57] <eric> How to make them work?
[10:57] <paied> which is why i asked =p
[10:58] <Ackeubu_> Is there a way to track down cashe intense applications? or to see what the cache is filled with?
[10:58] <MystaMax> void^, looks like its has the right permissions as well. -r-xr-xr-x  1 mystamax mystamax  98K 2006-06-30 23:14 vmware-uninstall.pl
[10:58] <paied> oh, there is a red sticker on the back
[10:58] <paied> that says France
[10:58] <coucho> eric: don't install them, i didn't either, they just worked (microsoft wireless desktop, how funny is that)
[10:58] <seamus_ie> !ubotu > seamus_ie
[10:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about > seamus_ie - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:58] <paied> so somehow it at least passed through france.
[10:58] <MystaMax> void^, unless it need write permissions
[10:58] <papo> CoOlGhOsT: yep
[10:58] <void^> MystaMax: hrm.. just running it with sudo should have been fine then
[10:59] <Spec> Ackeubu_: valgrind
[10:59] <CoOlGhOsT> papo: well lay it on me then :)
[10:59] <hippie23> hmm thats odd, ubuntu automatically detected my usb KB and mouse, cordless even... I didnt have to do anything to make them work.. they just worked rite out of the box
[10:59] <eric> coucho, I mean, I plugged them in, and they didn't work.
[10:59] <coucho> ah
[10:59] <Ensiferum> bah
[10:59] <eric> coucho, install is a bad term there
[10:59] <coucho> heheh
[10:59] <papo> CoOlGhOsT: http://comphobby.org/archives/14-More-Ubuntu-WPA-PSK-From-A-Joe-Sixpack-Perspective.html gives a good introduction
[10:59] <MystaMax> void^, hmm i hope this was a one time thing. thanks again for all your help
[10:59] <coucho> eric: usb or ps/2?
[10:59] <junkY_san> how do load a file with vim at the end of the file?
[10:59] <eric> So now I'm sitting at an SSH prompt, because I can't type.
[10:59] <eric> USB.
[10:59] <coucho> oh right
[10:59] <CoOlGhOsT> papo: thanks... ill have a look
[11:00] <coucho> missed that
[11:00] <eric> I'm on another machine.
[11:00] <eric> =D
[11:00] <coucho> me too :P
[11:00] <papo> CoOlGhOsT: summary is that it's not possible via the GUI
[11:00] <Spec> junkY_san: dunno, but in command line do: cat file_you_want_at_end_of_other_file >> other_file
[11:00] <CoOlGhOsT> papo: aaah... ill see what it says.. thanks
[11:00] <coucho> eric: what kind of mouse + keyboard is it? (i mean like are they seperate or is it a desktop set)
[11:01] <papo> CoOlGhOsT: yw
[11:01] <eric> Seperate, one is a compaq keyboard, the mouse is a generic USB mouse.
[11:01] <coucho> odd
[11:01] <eric> The keyboard works in BIOS.
[11:01] <Ensiferum> why do i get an error saying "invalid or unsupported executable format" from grub? :/
[11:01] <harold> the icon for firefox in my title bar (better name?) is a generic window icon. how can i fix it?
[11:01] <Ensiferum> what the hell did the make build then
[11:01] <coucho> eric: are you getting keyboard errors at startup?
[11:01] <FunnyLookinHat> harold, try right clicking it, selecting Properties.
[11:02] <eric> NOpe.
[11:02] <harold> FunnyLookinHat, it's the firefox window, not the menu
[11:02] <coucho> do you have usb->ps/2 convertors?
[11:02] <FunnyLookinHat> OOoh.
[11:02] <coucho> maybe that'll help
[11:02] <FunnyLookinHat> harold, sorry.  I don't know if you can change that unless you change your firefox or gnome theme.
[11:03] <coucho> eric?
[11:03] <eric> I only have one converter.  I want it to work as USB.
[11:03] <coucho> ah
[11:03] <coucho> when did you hook them up?
[11:03] <eric> Five minutes ago.
[11:03] <coucho> while ubuntu was running?
[11:05] <coucho> eric?

[11:15] <PanicFo> my banking software needs ie6 and java
[11:16] <grogoreo> hi
[11:16] <GStubbs43> How do I extract .exe files? I have done it before, but for some reason when I right clikc it, it says create archive, not Extract here... Anyone know?
[11:16] <coucho> eric: protocol for the mouse says "ImPS/2", so maybe that's one problem, but since there's not protocol specified for the keyboard, i doubt if it will solve the problem
[11:16] <eric> Where is the tutorial on getting KQemu (for video acceleration, I think...) working on Dapper?
[11:17] <st3v3dnd> Does anyone know how to get the Firestarter firewall icon back into the system tray? It seems to have disappeared after I upgraded to dapper.
[11:17] <finalbeta> Default config from proftp wants to make it run as nobody, but ubuntu doesn't have that group? What is the proper group to run it under?
[11:17] <hippie23> is there any way to work around that bs of these sites requiring a stupid microsoft browser.. all i have is firefox, and I seriously dont think theres an IE6 for linux
[11:17] <grogoreo> I'm trying to get xcompmgr working on my dapper install with an ATi 9600 card, but when I run it, the windows go all funny with being see through and say I'm in GVim, when I start typing the text will layer on it
[11:17] <harold> hippie23, fake your browser ident. theres an extension for it
[11:17] <hippie23> ok
[11:18] <hippie23> ill give that a try
[11:18] <stefg> PanicFo: should you have bothered to do a google search, you'd come up with http://patrick.spacesurfer.com/ie_wine_install.html yourself :-)
[11:18] <coucho> eric: one more thing, what does the "ServerLayout" section say?
[11:18] <PanicFo> it seems outdated that one
[11:18] <hippie23> because I do some stuff with MSN and it reqires IE6
[11:18] <PanicFo> .wine/config doesnt exist for example
[11:18] <eric> Generic Keyboard, Configured Mouse.
[11:18] <PanicFo> i've been a goob newb and did a little research before asking ^
[11:18] <PanicFo> ^^
[11:19] <PanicFo> good rather
[11:19] <eric> Maybe a xorg-config will do me well?
[11:19] <finalbeta> Default config from proftp wants to make it run as nobody, but ubuntu doesn't have that group? What is the proper group to run it under?
[11:19] <eric> Reconfigure xorg or whatever it is.
[11:19] <coucho> you could try, i'd back it up first of course if i were you
[11:19] <eric> How does it work...?
[11:19] <coucho> dunno :$
[11:19] <coucho> sorry

[11:22] <MrDarkUser> I just installed ubuntu on my laptop. it says my wireless card wlan0 is active! YAY it's an acx 111 (dlink dwl-630)  It reports signal strength, and has said it sent packets and recieved packets  It just doesn't want to connect
[11:22] <buggzero> am I able to reinstall ubuntu without erasing my data
[11:22] <homerh_linux> not to sure just formated with the disk program in system/admin/disk and formated and set up access path but i can see it access but cant do anything else
[11:23] <jrib> ryandev: it's somewhere in the wiki... let me see if I can find it
[11:23] <ryandev> buggzero: maybe, but you should backup. I know in MacOS 10 you can, but idk about it in Ubuntu
[11:23] <MrDarkUser> The mac address is entered into the router, the wep key is correct on the laptop... I'm getting frustrated. I've not seen the "act" light on the pcmcia card turn on yet. any ideas?
[11:23] <seamus_ie> MrDarkUser: do you have an ip address?
[11:23] <WechLob> n8
[11:24] <grogoreo> why is it that when I enable:   Option "composite" "enable"    in my xorg.conf it turns off direct rendering? I'm using an ati card with fglrx
[11:24] <ryandev> jrib: I want a small one like the spread firefox thing
[11:24] <eric> Nope, Xorg reconfigure didn't work.
[11:24] <MrDarkUser> seamus_ie: I specified one manualy when I got the packets sent. I set it to dhcp now and don't have an IP
[11:24] <Razorman> Can someone help me with the installation? I have a quick question about partitioning :)
[11:24] <MrDarkUser> seamus_ie: dhcp works for my other wireless devices
[11:24] <jrib> ryandev: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official specifically, the buttons
[11:25] <coucho> eric: you can't do anything at all with your keyboard?
[11:25] <jrib> ryandev: (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebsiteButtons)
[11:25] <gatekeeper> Razorman: which is?
[11:25] <seamus_ie> MrDarkUser:  from the command line type ifconfig, is your device in there with the correct ip?
[11:25] <Malin> homerh_linux, what filesystem have you got on this hdd?
[11:25] <st3v3dnd> I get the following when I try to start the firestarter gui. Anyone know what might be wrong? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17955
[11:25] <cntb> Razorman: just ask
[11:25] <ryandev> I just used Ubuntu to upgrade from FC3 for two reasons, it has Debain base code, its smaller and its newer
[11:25] <Razorman> gatekeeper: I can't figure out whether or not "WARNING: This will destroy all data on any partitions you have removed as
[11:25] <Razorman>   well as on the partitions that are going to be formatted" means that the Windows partitions (which I have not mounted) will be deleted if I proceed?
[11:26] <homerh_linux> linux malin
[11:26] <Malin> ext3?
[11:26] <eric> coucho: Nope, not locally.
[11:26] <coucho> damn
[11:26] <jrib> st3v3dnd: did you mess with /etc/sudoers at all for firestarter?
[11:26] <MrDarkUser> seamus_ie: trying
[11:26] <cntb> Razorman it will you stopped on time
[11:26] <gluttony> i need some help with getting my sound to work propery. and configuring y hardware
[11:27] <Malin> homerh_linux: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount
[11:27] <Malin> this should help
[11:27] <Razorman> cntb: Oh... thanks. :)
[11:27] <Razorman> Why won't it just leave my Win partitions alone then?
[11:27] <martii> how to make ubuntu shutting down immidiately after I press power button?
[11:27] <homerh_linux> thanks malin
[11:27] <cntb> choose another option Razorman
[11:27] <ryandev> anyone know if xubuntu will work on a P2 450
[11:27] <homerh_linux> will read
[11:27] <martii> I'd liek to avoid this dialog full of buttons
[11:27] <Malin> homerh_linux, np :-)
[11:27] <coucho> Crescendo: why do you want to use usb?
[11:28] <gluttony> my sound, when i try to play mp3s, the sound is really scratchy and messed up
[11:28] <cntb> best is to know what it must do and do ti manually
[11:28] <MenZa> o-o
[11:28] <gatekeeper> Razorman: have you shrunk your windows partition so you can create linux partition(s) for your install?
[11:29] <Spec> gluttony: does it sound fine with every other audio format?
[11:29] <Borromini_lappy> hi wyz
[11:29] <andy-> Which package do I need to get MP3 support in rhythmbox?
[11:29] <st3v3dnd> jrib: Yes, I believe so
[11:29] <eck> what file am I supposed to edit to add a DNS nameserver? /etc/resolv.conf has a warning not to edit it by hand
[11:29] <Razorman> gatekeeper: I already made the partitions with Gparted and chose them for mounting. But I didn't want my other (Win) partitions mounted to I removed them from the list. But now it sounds like they'll also get deleted...
[11:29] <cntb> important q. Razorman you can use Gparted free included partition editor
[11:29] <gluttony> well, when i run skype and do the test call, the plain voice audio sounds alright, but i dont have anything in other sound formats. i just use mp3s
[11:30] <Spec> eck: i always edit that file by hand.. >:)
[11:30] <jrib> st3v3dnd: that may be why, I think I remember reading something about that.  Check launchpad for bug reports and the forums, I don't remember if there was a workaround
[11:30] <keito> Razorman, explain how "it sounds like they'll also get deleted", please
[11:30] <Spec> gluttony: try turning down the volume in alsamixer and turning up the hardware volume
[11:30] <wyz> hiya Borromini_lappy
[11:30] <st3v3dnd> jrib: Just checked, and I did edit it. but would that even effect trying to launch from the command line manually?
[11:30] <gatekeeper> Razorman: go carefully
[11:30] <Crescendo> Coucho: USB keyboard has a better click click, and I speed fight.  Buttons are bigger.
[11:30] <Crescendo> =D
[11:30] <st3v3dnd> jrib: a la sudo firestarter?
[11:30] <Razorman> keito: The whole "WARNING: This will destroy all data on any partitions ///you have removed/// as
[11:30] <Razorman>   well as on the partitions that are going to be formatted"
[11:31] <gluttony> Spec, turning down which volume?
[11:31] <XiXaQ> hello everyone. I need some help right away. My ubuntu desktop is suddenly in chineese... Can someone please describe Language settings icon to me?
[11:31] <coucho> Crescendo: ah heheh, that's vital of course
[11:31] <Spec> gluttony: PCM and master to about 85%
[11:31] <XiXaQ> Oh, I didn't mention... I only speak norwegian and english.. I don't know chineese at all.
[11:31] <jrib> st3v3dnd: that's what people were claiming.  It had to do with getting firestarter not to need a password
[11:31] <keito> XiXaQ, CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE, and then change back to norsk eller engelsk eller hvaenn du vil
[11:32] <XiXaQ> I don't know chineese at all.
[11:32] <Spec> gluttony: same for volume control on the app you're using to play the mp3
[11:32] <gluttony> i dont see a hardware voume
[11:32] <keito> Razorman, partition != hard drive
[11:33] <Spec> gluttony: the volume on your speakers ...
[11:33] <keito> so if it refers to the partitions you have marked for deletion, it shouldn't harm any data
[11:33] <Razorman> keito: Yeah I know... I'm just worried because I'm not exactly sure what that part of the text means
[11:33] <keito> okay, let me ask you one question then
[11:33] <shwag> so how exactly does apt-get handle configuration file changes ?
[11:33] <keito> are you trying to resize a partition?
[11:33] <gluttony> oh ok
[11:33] <Razorman> keito: I mean, when it says "removed" does it mean the partitions I chose not to mount, or something else?
[11:33] <shwag> what is the difference between the  proftpd and proftpd-mysql  packages ?
[11:33] <homerh_linux> malin have mounted drive now but dont have permission cant write to it
[11:33] <Razorman> keito: No, I resized and all that earlier in Gparted
[11:34] <keito> i see, so you're in the installer now, huh?
[11:34] <Razorman> keito: So now I'm at the screen where I have to choose a partition for swap and /
[11:34] <keito> i see
[11:34] <andy-> Where can I get gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly? =\
[11:34] <Razorman> keito: Yeah, and _all_ partitions showed up to be mounted, but I didn't want my windows partitions in there. Now I don't know if it means they'll just be deleted, or left alone
[11:34] <samuel> how can i send a message to all console users?
[11:35] <Spec> !info gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

[11:35] <keito> that'd just be messed up
[11:35] <andy-> thats right, i have to add the two depositorys
[11:35] <gatekeeper> Razorman: don't know if this helps at all? http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/index.html#createnewpartgparted
[11:35] <samuel> Spec, thx

[11:37] <keito> i guess it means that all data will be lost on all partitions you (may) have deleted under the partitioner, even if you're not formatting them, but that's just my guess. i run ubuntu exclusively, and have never done any dual booting except on my mac, so i don't really know much about it
[11:37] <Ensiferum> the modules have been installed and exist

[11:44] <slowz3r> anyone think they can help me out ?
[11:44] <st3v3dnd> jrib: Thanks, I found the issue, and made the necessary changes.
[11:44] <johlin> I have problems with qemu and network. I've just installed windows 98se just to have something light to use for GuitarPro (the only application I can't find a good alternative for in Linux). I pass it the -net user-command, but windows cannot get internet access. The card doesn't shop up in device manager either. What do I do? This shouldn't be a windows 98-problem as xp does have the same problem when i install that.
[11:44] <jrib> st3v3dnd: great
[11:44] <ryandev> anyone wanna see my Ubuntu Logo
[11:44] <thnee> keito: yeah but thats valknut isnt it?
[11:45] <keito> johlin, did you try dguitar (or something like that)?
[11:45] <crogue5> how do i run a .run file? gnome keeps wanting to open it in gedit
[11:45] <crogue5> ?
[11:45] <keito> thnee, i think valknut was called dcgui-qt
[11:45] <thnee> oh
[11:45] <keito> this one is gtk+-based
[11:45] <johlin> keito: yes, I tried dguitar but it's not good enough. Can't start at a specified position, no muting of tracks, no tempo change, messy interface. It has potential, but it's not there yet.
[11:45] <slowz3r> can anyone help me do this please http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Background_Terminal
[11:45] <thnee> but its still the same program, so its still banned everywhere
[11:46] <samuel> how can i do something like "this text">>thisfile ???
[11:46] <thnee> yep.. "dc_gui is a gtk front-end for the dctc program."
[11:46] <keito> johlin, i see. i've barely tried it myself, and it seemed to crash quite a lot. unfortunately, i can't help with qemu though :/
[11:47] <lnxGnome> eny students here? how can I log into fafsa if there is not support for linux browsers ?
[11:47] <SimzI> is tehre a way to increase your upload speed with gaim via msn?
[11:47] <martibs> how do I change the default browser which applications open? I installed Galeon, and now Picard opens that instead of Firefox...
[11:47] <andy-> jrib: thx.
[11:47] <johlin> keito: thanks anyway. Since the specification for guitar pro files is on the dguitar homepage, I'll try to do something similar in c++ when I've learnt wxwindows/wxwidgets.
[11:47] <slowz3r> canyone outhere thing they can helop me please...
[11:48] <johlin> slowz3r: what do you need help with? It's kind of self explanatory
[11:48] <slowz3r> johlin, im trying to do this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202249    but i dont understand step 4
[11:49] <avalente> hello. I'm looking for a software to keep a personal diary (or journal if you want). Any suggestions?
[11:49] <keito> johlin, wow, that's awesome! i refuse to install java due to to sun's license, and it's bloody slow anyway, so a c++ guitarpro application would be a huge plus for guitar-playing linux users!
[11:49] <keito> avalanche, how about a blog?
[11:49] <johlin> slowz3r: open a terminal, click edit>profiles and create a new one with the settings you have in the tutorial.
[11:49] <avalente> keito: I don't want to put it only.. It's just for me
[11:50] <jrib> How does gnome-terminal determine the "system terminal font"?
[11:50] <aLPHa_LeaK>  n8
[11:50] <ryandev> jrib: you hear of TUX Magazine
[11:50] <johlin> keito: yeah. I'm not the best programmer out there at all, but as soon as the basics are made I think at least some people are willing to help. Java isn't as popular as c(++)
[11:50] <jrib> ryandev: I've heard of it
[11:50] <keito> avalanche, register at livejournal.com, then apt-get install logjam, and make sure to set post privacy to "private"
[11:51] <ryandev> jrib: it is actually a veyr good mag for beginners
[11:51] <ryandev> very*
[11:51] <harold> i'm trying to get a chroot to work and i'm getting the error dchroot: Child exited non-zero. any ideas?
[11:51] <veepster_> anyone here use voiceone with asterisk?
[11:52] <avalente> keito: isn't there any software that does it locally?
[11:52] <crogue5> how do i run a .run file? gnome keeps wanting to open it in gedit?
[11:52] <avalente> via a database for instance
[11:52] <jrib> crogue5: what is the .run supposed to do?
[11:52] <Spec> crogue5: chmod +x filename.run
[11:52] <Spec> crogue5: ./filename.run
[11:52] <crogue5> ok thanks
[11:52] <keito> avalanche, hmm... there should be some
[11:52] <crogue5> it's an installer
[11:52] <johlin> crogue5: It should as normally. Anyway, open a terminal, browse to the folder, chmod +x file and ./file
[11:52] <jme> please to help with wireless support: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=214048
[11:52] <keito> avalanche, i can't think of anything right now, though
[11:52] <neopsyche> doh!
[11:52] <johlin> crogue5: it should as normally, but do what I said.
[11:52] <keito> johlin, it's a good project to take on! i wish you the best luck!
[11:53] <neopsyche> does anyone know where i can find a cellular phone / mobile phone chatroom?
[11:53] <johlin> thanks keito. I won't promise anything though
[11:53] <Spec> probably not on freenode
[11:53] <crogue5> thanks
[11:54] <compengi> suppose that i distribute shell accounts, i need dns vhosts for irc users, from where and how do i make them work
[11:54] <keito> johlin, i'll cross my fingers while waiting
[11:54] <martibs> how do I change the default browser which applications open? I installed Galeon, and now Picard opens that instead of Firefox...
[11:54] <ryandev> jrib, i just gave you the link
[11:55] <MrDarkUser> seamus_ie: the device was there
[11:55] <Ensiferum> hah, no my driver hack works! \o/

[11:57] <DracoDan|LT> spec: thanks a lot for your help earlier, i finally managed to get my file system mounted and I'm able to recover the data
[11:57] <keito> avalanche, how about running some common weblog software on a server that can only be accessed by localhost?
[11:57] <Ensiferum> can anyone on SATA system please run "sudo hdpram -Tt /dev/[drive] " ?
[11:57] <qwertybob> itried ubuntu 64 live, i get vesa v bios address 0x2bo out of range
[11:57] <qwertybob> thats in safe graphics mode, i have nivida
[11:58] <DracoDan|LT> i had to do mount -r -t ufs -o ufs2 /dev/sda1 /<target>
[11:58] <qwertybob> in nvidia it dont work here, i recently changed my mobo and processor
[11:58] <jme> qwertybob: so did you install Ubuntu using the alternate install CD?
[11:58] <NthDegree> try the alternate cd if the desktop one is annoying
[11:58] <lido> Is anyone here running Dapper on Virtual PC?
[11:58] <qwertybob> right now i got ubuntu on hard drive and its same problem
[11:58] <eyedol59> anybody has the 740N Samsung TFT monitor working under LInux?
[11:58] <NthDegree> the live (desktop) cd doesn;t like me either
[11:58] <qwertybob> jme: the 64 bit yes
[11:59] <qwertybob> installed is 32
[11:59] <jme> ok, so did you reconfigure your xorg.conf to reflect your new hardware, qwertybob?
[11:59] <qwertybob> jme: my new hardware is a motherboard and processor
[11:59] <DracoDan|LT> btw, is it possible to burn a CD if i booted from the live cd and only had one cd-rom?
[11:59] <NthDegree> nforce qwertybob?
[11:59] <qwertybob> the nvidia is 6600 gt
[12:00] <avalente> keito: I think i found something better: elog.. It's a more of a notebook than a diary but will do the job perfectly ;)
[12:00] <Jack_Smirnoff> 6600 here as well working fine
[12:00] <qwertybob> it always worked here too
[12:00] <jme> well, it sounds like the conflict is with the mobo -- I'd try googling for how to get that mobo working in X
[12:00] <theapoc> Does anyone know where the vmware vmserver config file is located
[12:00] <NthDegree> GeForce 6200SE TurboCache here and that works
[12:00] <qwertybob> it runs live in kanotix and zenlive though
[12:00] <Jack_Smirnoff> Ensiferum:  what did you need that for.. I can boot up Ubuntu with sata if you need?
