| cbx33 | Warbo, oh? why not | 12:22 |
| bbrazil | compotatoj: but should be quite enough for general usage | 12:22 |

| compotatoj | enyc, VMWare usually :) | 12:22 |
| cbx33 | where can I get it from | 12:22 |
| cbx33 | or do I have to patch vanilla | 12:22 |
| ryanakca | whats the difference between 192.168.0.0/8, 192.160.0.0/16, etc,etc? | 12:22 |

| steveire | Warbo: Are you saying I should apititude remove some linux-headers-<number> package after I do this? | 12:22 |
| bbrazil | compotatoj: then keep bmware inside your ram | 12:22 |
| NKayhan | nick-uk: VLC/Mplayer | 12:22 |
| compotatoj | bbrazil, could VMWare be slowing it down | 12:22 |

| rick-uk | that went in OK | 12:23 |
| bbrazil | compotatoj: use at most around 512MB for vmware | 12:23 |
| ballmerbrekdanz | sproingie: it's a ppc 233MHZ | 12:23 |
| enyc | compotatoj: VMWare very-well could be eating loads of ram ;-) | 12:23 |
| Warbo | rick-uk: Once it is installed I STRONGLY advise the use of totem or something, using the RM codecs. RealPlayer lags a lot, even on a low quality stream on a broadband connection | 12:23 |
| ryanakca | steveire: do you NEED to remove them? | 12:23 |
| compotatoj | bbrazil, that is what i'm doing | 12:23 |
| NKayhan | So why is my sorces.list empty? | 12:23 |
| sproingie | ballmerbrekdanz: dunno much about ppc. at that age of cpu you might try something like uclinux | 12:23 |

| Warbo | 233MHz is fine for PCs with Linux, and PPCs are supposedly faster for the same clock speed | 12:24 |
| NKayhan | can someone pastebin their sources.list? | 12:25 |

| bbrazil | NKayhan: ^ | 12:25 |
| Warbo | sproingie: That's not the problem, the problem is that when watching videos the stream is downloaded fine but RealPlayer looks like a webcam slideshow rather than a video player | 12:25 |
| sproingie | bbrazil: it's not that cut and dried. it's also one-clock per op, which is not the case for intel | 12:25 |
| rick-uk | yes but the \BBC radioplayer won'tlaunch - says I do not have the RP plugin or RP player installed - is there a way to fool it into using VLC? | 12:25 |
| NKayhan | ubotu: Oh cool | 12:25 |
| ubotu | I know nothing about Oh cool - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu | 12:25 |
| steveire | Nah, I'm not that bothered. I don't use my computer as a power tool. If I have or have had some obscure driver and I don't know about it now, I don't need it. | 12:26 |
| Warbo | bbrazil: But most processors newer than x86 (ie. most processors) can do much more with fewer clock cycles | 12:26 |
| ryanakca | rick-uk: you using firefox? I have bbc radioplayer running... | 12:26 |
| rick-uk | yes I am | 12:26 |
| bbrazil | Warbo: but modern x86 processors are suparscalar | 12:26 |
| rick-uk | bbc.co.uk | 12:26 |
| rick-uk | radio | 12:26 |
| rick-uk | listen to R4 or whatever.. | 12:26 |
| ryanakca | rick-uk: yeah... I know what your talking about... BBC Radio Oxford :P | 12:27 |
| sproingie | uclinux is probably overkill since that's for systems without MMU's | 12:27 |
| Warbo | rick-uk: I end up looking in the source to find the stream URL. These days I just use BBCWorld though, since it has direct links to the ram files | 12:27 |

| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: hopefully it will tell you what it was not having permission to do. failing that, I recommend running vmware from a script on that session, and having it do an strace (tracks all system calls) and grep for "permission denied" messages in the output | 01:47 |

| soundray | MikeyMike: sounds like a reasonable proposition. I would do it differently, though -- I'd back up the contents of hda2 and hda3, then delete them and have the extended partition cover the whole of the disk space beyond the resized hda1. | 01:53 |
| eddie_nX | so how do i login or do i have to re-install... also I tried cnt alt bksp and tried logining in from the other screen | 01:53 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: when you run "vmware" from the console, as your user, you should see any permission denied messages | 01:53 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: without using sudo | 01:53 |

| zcat[1] | eddie_nX: if you only just installed, reinstalling is probably easiest.. | 01:54 |

| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: ah, good. hopefully that's all | 01:54 |
| soundray | eddie_nX: hmm, interesting... you could try booting in recovery mode, add a new user and add that user to all relevant groups. Might be easier to reinstall, though. | 01:54 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: once you have it running fine as your user, it should also work under the login session | 01:55 |
| eddie_nX | but im curious i guess root cant login and run xwindows (or ubuntu) | 01:55 |

| zcat[1] | someone should file a bug, the installer shouldn't let you use 'root' as the first nonroot account name :) | 01:55 |
| soundray | MikeyMike: the way it is, if you resize hda1 and create new partitions in the space you gain, you get a strange ordering of primary partitions that some systems (not Linux) might have issues with. | 01:55 |
| ScurveyFrog | Samus_Aran: now it doesn't show me errors, but it still doesn't show Windows XP in the list of Virtual Machines | 01:56 |
| eddie_nX | lol | 01:56 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: are you aware that you can tell VMware to automatically launch a particular session fullscreened ? then it wouldn't load up the GUI and it would seem just like booting into it | 01:56 |
| eddie_nX | yeah thats odd | 01:56 |
| eddie_nX | if it piled a username onto root | 01:56 |
| Lord_Athur | Is there a channel about partners? | 01:56 |
| MikeyMike | soundray: would XP have issues with it? | 01:56 |
| ScurveyFrog | Samus_Aran: yes, that's what I'm going for | 01:56 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: you were running as root before, and now as your user. probably it has just forgotten the session | 01:56 |
| eddie_nX | lol so normally can you login to console as root and then start x | 01:56 |
| soundray | MikeyMike: I don't know -- you'd have to ask someone who uses XP... | 01:56 |
| MikeyMike | soundray: ha ha :D | 01:56 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: just go to "File > Open session", or whatever it is called, and go to the virtual hard drive | 01:56 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: it should add it to the list after that | 01:57 |
| soundray | eddie_nX: no, normally you can't login as root at all on ubuntu. | 01:57 |
| zcat[1] | I have no idea.. but I'd guess it failed to make a login at all since root is already used, and probably hasn't set a password anywhere | 01:57 |
| ScurveyFrog | Samus_Aran: it said unable to add virtual machine, permission denied | 01:57 |
| Samus_Aran | ScurveyFrog: what showed up on the console ? | 01:57 |
| eddie_nX | but ur normal user account would be able to make system changes essentially like a root user would? | 01:58 |
| zcat[1] | !sudo | 01:58 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 01:58 |
| ScurveyFrog | Samus_Aran: nothing | 01:58 |
| eddie_nX | ahh ok | 01:58 |

| eddie_nX | and ubunto is essentially linux or is it a different os altogether? | 02:00 |

| Samus_Aran | id10t: one thing to note is that every soundcard has different labels in alsamixer, this is unfortunately due to the fact that they just take the names straight off the soundcard, and don't try to translate them into something sensible (as happens with a Windows soundcard driver), so the mixer items often have very random names | 02:07 |

| Samus_Aran | Lighty: that means that there was something wrong with those resolutions for your current monitor. the two most likely causes, which are actually the same: 1) Xorg can't detect your monitor sync rates, or 2) your monitor was off when Xorg was loaded, which causes autodetection to fail, go to 1 | 02:27 |

| soundray | Trae: most drives need around 10W, but can draw *much* more during spin-up. It really depends on the rest of your system. You can always try it out, and if you get strange problems, upgrade your PSU to ca. 350 W (if 220 W is what you have now) | 02:55 |

| NthDegree | Lichte use the alternate CD if this is causing issues | 03:31 |
| DBO | Samus_Aran, sudo dpkg -P postfix, Samus_Aran then do "sudo apt-get install postfix" | 03:31 |
| Lighty | Samus_Aran: It installed fine for me. Want my sources.list file? | 03:31 |

| Lichte | ok, it's starting up the partitioner | 03:48 |
| Samus_Aran | Lighty: okay. your problem is that you haven't entered the modes in the bottom section. you provided the modelines, which tells it how to run the modes, but you didn't provide any modes afterward for it to try using | 03:48 |
| Lichte | at this point the thing shouldn't be scanning for media | 03:48 |
| Lichte | it's been told what to do | 03:49 |
| Lichte | yet, away it scans | 03:49 |
| Samus_Aran | Lighty: and by default, when there are no modes set to try out, it uses the maximum resolution supported by your monitor (in this case, 1600x1200) | 03:49 |
| Lighty | Samus_Aran: Can you give me one example to put in? | 03:49 |

| Samus_Aran | Lighty: the Seat_1 and Seat_2 are just the names I used for the different "server layouts" | 03:53 |
| Samus_Aran | Lighty: multiseat used to involve patching the linux kernel and the X server, but as of Xorg 7.x.x, it is much easier to do | 03:54 |
| Samus_Aran | still kind of unstable, but at least easier to try out | 03:54 |
| crogue5 | anyone familiar with xgl ? | 03:55 |
| Samus_Aran | Lighty: it should be really stable in a year or two. I hope Ubuntu adopts multiseat then, would be cool to have it as an option during install: 1) use one monitor only, 2) use two monitors with xinerama, 3) use each monitor separately as multiseat | 03:55 |
| Madpilot | crogue5, try #ubuntu-xgl | 03:55 |

| ben__ | does it show up in system -> administration -> networking | 03:57 |
| Samus_Aran | Lighty: the basic method in Xorg 7.x.x to do multiseat is to not use the "kbd" and "mouse" drivers, as they can't distinguish themselves for only one X server (you need to use the newer "evdev" universal input driver), and then you run the X server with an option telling it to not bind itself to a VT (like TTY7 being the default) | 03:57 |

| b00gz1 | yes sir. I was in it and rebooted it I didn't change anything (that I am aware of) and this happened | 04:13 |
| technel | Is sendmail going to be a nightmare to set up on Ubuntu? There are no wiki articles, I downloaded the package, but I want to test the default configuration (crossing my fingers, don't really want to get messy with this tonight) | 04:13 |
| Lichte | Ignite__: I"m sorry, it should NEVER scan disks after it's been told not to, I don't care how automated it is | 04:14 |

| Lichte | Ignite__: install methods should have nothing to do with that | 04:14 |
| b00gz1 | Madpilot after serveral weeks of use | 04:14 |
| Ignite__ | Lichte, but you didn't tell it not to.. you told it not to mount them, not to format them and not to use them, the checking is just an automated part of the installer | 04:15 |
| Lichte | Ignite__: and after it's been told to not mount of modify them, it shouldn't be checking them either | 04:15 |
| Lichte | the only reason to check them is if you're going to mount them | 04:16 |

| hyperstream | ive got ndiswrapper and wpa_supplicant (for wpa encryption) all goes fine and runs but the signal is on 0% and the net is dead slow. yet in windows my netgear wg111t works rather nicely. ive tried adding my usb extention cable and moving it round high lower etc nothing changes. | 04:51 |
| Samus_Aran | kwtm: I am not sure what the license allows, but yes, it is at least "source available" | 04:51 |

| hyperstream | say some drivers | 05:16 |
| Samus_Aran | olrrai: that will attemp to mount all entries listed in /etc/fstab that aren't already mounted, and are not set "noauto" | 05:16 |
| thma | /var/www is default apache but i have seen it all over the place | 05:16 |

| IcemanV9 | Heretician: does your network card LED is blinking or not? | 05:17 |
| brownegg | i'm pretty sure the current ones are intel | 05:17 |
| Samus_Aran | rever: what sort of blank screen ? | 05:17 |
| kabobuntu | Dattasmoon, that seems like there another interface on the network that is forcing it to 100 mode | 05:17 |

| kabobuntu | poje, sda1 is just a partition probably | 05:24 |

| xarq | wheels3572: <esc> :w <ret> | 06:44 |
| hyperstream | hmm | 06:44 |
| notamisfit | paied: try the in-kernel radeon driver | 06:44 |
| sproingie | bluefoxicy: that probably just isn't going to work. cat is going to try to copy /dev/mem into a buffer ... which will appear in /dev/mem itself | 06:44 |
| paied | `radeon` ? | 06:44 |
| wheels3572 | dark^ngel thanks | 06:44 |
| bluefoxicy | sproingie: yes but the buffer will only exist in one place, so it'll spit that out too. | 06:44 |
| paied | ah he says 7500 | 06:45 |
| hyperstream | anyone here use xsane for there scanner?, i can only run xsane as root other wise i get a I/O error | 06:45 |
| bluefoxicy | sproingie: the stuff is volatile, it's not a constant stream of information. It's like reading a constantly changing file | 06:45 |
| notamisfit | paied: modprobe radeon and switch the driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to radeon | 06:45 |
| fivre | hey bluefox | 06:45 |
| wastrel | hyperstream: what does the groups command give you ? xsane runs fine for me but i'm in the scanner group. | 06:45 |
| bluefoxicy | agh | 06:45 |
| fivre | now how do I tell firefox to do what I want? | 06:45 |
| paied | alright notamisfit will give that try. thx. | 06:45 |
| bluefoxicy | so much for being able to grep memory | 06:45 |
| hyperstream | im also in the scanner group | 06:45 |
| notamisfit | np. | 06:45 |
| bluefoxicy | fivre: I dunno. | 06:45 |
| hyperstream | ill type it out brb | 06:45 |
| notamisfit | set up a laptop for a buddy with an older radeon, and that did the trick | 06:46 |
| xarq | bluefoxicy: the problem with trying to grep memory is grep will also start writing its stream into memory | 06:46 |
| sproingie | bluefoxicy: isn't /dev/mem an image of the entire virtual address space of the current process though? meaning it's always 2 gigs? | 06:46 |

| xarq | bluefoxicy: which may be where your data was | 06:47 |
| paied | would be neat to do so in linux too. | 06:47 |
| bluefoxicy | xarq: In other words, you're reading a file that's changing underneath you. Pure and simple. You get strange results but we're not trying to do anything that requires consistencey here. | 06:47 |

| dark^ngel | wheels3572, save as another filename then sudo to move it | 06:48 |
| wastrel | hyperstream: i'm guessing it has something to do with udev - maybe not recognizing your scanner and setting appropriate permissions on the usb device that's created when your scanner is plugged in. | 06:48 |

| dark^ngel | not quite | 06:51 |
| === dark^ngel has no user 0 == root | ||
| sproingie | notamisfit: of course. it just doesn't have a single superuser. it has a user that can switch to any other user's permission, but do just about nothing else. | 06:52 |
| josesito | sysrpl: nope | 06:52 |
| [Ex0r] | Alrighty, let me rephrase. Anyone about that is familiar with sendmail or postfix ? | 06:52 |
| wastrel | hyperstream: you can check the scanner database in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules and see if your scanner is there. | 06:52 |
| sproingie | notamisfit: it's like having root that can only call seteuid | 06:52 |
| josesito | sysrpl: didn't work beacuse the partition is mounted as read only | 06:52 |

| FunnyLookinHat | I haven't done too much debugging, but I'd rather not have to remove the harddrives to start messing with it | 07:39 |
| Warbo | FunnyLookinHat: You sure you put it on the MBR? | 07:39 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Warbo, lol, liveCD doesn't give you a choice | 07:39 |
| dark^ngel | FunnyLookinHat, of the first drive? | 07:39 |
| FunnyLookinHat | By default I thought it did | 07:39 |
| farky | FunnyLookinHat: which harddrive did you install grub to? Primary IDE or Secondary? | 07:39 |
| Warbo | FunnyLookinHat: That's pretty bad then. I hope there's a bug filed..... | 07:39 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Ok ok, Have you all used the dapper live CD? | 07:39 |
| FunnyLookinHat | It doesn't give you an option! | 07:39 |
| acebo | coucho: I'm a little confused then.. why are you getting the warning about anon and local if you're neither? Or perhaps that's your question too.. | 07:39 |
| dark^ngel | F6 | 07:40 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I'll probably have to boot up the livecD< mount the hard drive, and manually install grub. but that's just a pain | 07:40 |
| coucho | acebo: exactly what i want to know XD | 07:40 |
| farky | FunnyLookinHat, I did, but it is pretty much the same as the alternate install disc minus the live CD part | 07:40 |
| filemover | how do i copy all of the directorys contained on a cdrom to another directory on my hard drive from the prompt Ive been using cp -R /cdrom/ /home/user/directory but i always end up with the directory cdrom inside this one id rather just have the directories contained on the cdrom moved and nothing else | 07:40 |
| FunnyLookinHat | farky, I installed on primary SATA drive, I have another IDE channel with a master and slave tho | 07:40 |
| Warbo | filemover: Use /cdrom/* | 07:40 |

| FunnyLookinHat | ArthurBrazil, in your file /etc/apt/sources.list remove the first line that refers to the CD | 08:02 |
| acebo | Kibbled_bits: No, he means Gnome and XFCE, I think. He's deciding between Xu and Ubuntu | 08:02 |

| dark^ngel | ArthurBrazil, have you edited /etc/sources.list | 08:02 |

| FunnyLookinHat | farky, ahh ballz. it seems my hack to install grub didn't quite work. have to tweak the menu.list i think | 08:02 |
| andrivid | Hi. I haev an IA64 machine. Is the 64-bit cd of Dapper compatible with ANYTHING Intel, or just amd64 type stuff? | 08:02 |
| Kibbled_bits | Ubuntu (with Gnome) will give you a rich but simple interface | 08:02 |
| richard | but acebo has it right ..... which is better Gnome or XFCE? | 08:02 |
| Kibbled_bits | XUbuntu will give you a simpler faster interface, to my knowledge | 08:03 |
| acebo | XFCE is a lightweight WM | 08:03 |
| richard | ok well im cool with dapper | 08:03 |
| Kibbled_bits | but I haven't used Xubuntu yet | 08:03 |
| acebo | Gnome, not-so-lightweight | 08:03 |
| FunnyLookinHat | richard, none is better. It's all whichever is best for you personally | 08:03 |
| alnokta | can i ask a question about easyubuntu? | 08:03 |
| Kibbled_bits | I'd start with Ubuntu | 08:03 |
| farky | FunnyLookinHat: that sucks, the list is in: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 08:03 |
| FunnyLookinHat | coucho, what's not playable in linux? mp3? | 08:03 |
| acebo | Shoot, alnokta | 08:03 |
| Kibbled_bits | then take it from there if you like it, if not try Kubuntu | 08:03 |
| acebo | FunnyLookinHat: Counterstrike: Source | 08:03 |
| coucho | FunnyLookinHat: counter strike source | 08:03 |
| Kibbled_bits | or if you need faster and lighter Xubuntu | 08:03 |
| coucho | hahahah | 08:03 |
| FunnyLookinHat | farky, right. It's just referring to the wrong location for the kernel image : ) | 08:03 |

| ic56 | bill[1] : Since you're working with windows files, when you get to running the script that will move all the files, you have to be careful: such files often contain spaces. Spaces in a script are used to separate arguments. To ensure spaces are seen as part of a filename, you must quote the filename. Show me what you have when you get there, and I'll tell you how to adjust it for spaces | 10:03 |

| bbrazil | morphix: syntax might be a tad off | 11:06 |
| morphix | bbrazil, i know how to static assign.. i mean what i need to do with tcpdump | 11:06 |
| mikeymike-linux | holycow, im loving the packaging | 11:06 |

| morphix | bbrazil, because i dont want to have to run back and forth between here and there | 11:07 |
| mikeymike-linux | i didnt have any kind of packaging in slackware.. dependencies were hell | 11:07 |
| morphix | ok. | 11:07 |
| ajax4 | mikechml: I could not get either XP or 2000 to install unless they were the very first partition. The Windows installer refused. YMMV of course. | 11:07 |

| heretician | holycow, thats exactly how it went for me | 11:07 |
| J-_ | suse packaging sucks compared to ubuntu | 11:07 |
| holycow | heretician, stop asking about testing. the answer is windows wants to be on the first partition and there is nothing you can do about it. second microsoft doesn't recognize any other os and won't make your life easy ... so work around the bozos if you want to keep on using their dippy product :) | 11:07 |

| mikeymike-linux | TARZEAU, can i ahve yours? :) | 11:20 |
| ZorK | well.. I've downloaded Ubuntu Live CD, and now I run it, and I clicked the install thingy on the desktop .. I filled in the 4 parts, but the 6th, the one where you need to prepare mount points, is going wrong for me .. I have 6 harddiscs, I got a new one, with 15gb to install Ubunto on. It finds them all. But if i just choose / for the 15gb hdd, it says that it needs the mount points for the other harddrives .. but i dont want ubuntu to touch the | 11:21 |
| ra7eeel | and i really dont know anything abut the new O.S | 11:21 |
| TARZEAU | mikeymike-linux: you can find openstep iso images that work on i386/sparc hardware | 11:21 |
| mikeymike-linux | nooseisloose, im way too dependant on windows still....... i play games like CounterStrike Source | 11:21 |
| holycow | TARZEAU, our approach is a distributed botnet ... long term anyway, short term we hack in solutions as we bring ubuntu to the desktop | 11:21 |
| TARZEAU | mikeymike-linux: that should be no problem to install on. look for version 4.2 | 11:21 |
| TARZEAU | mikeymike-linux: or check out gnustep | 11:21 |
| mikeymike-linux | TARZEAU, this would be almost exactly the same as NEXT? | 11:21 |
| mgs2980 | im using ubuntu atm ve found sertain bugs with it but its ok for a back up when windows screws over :P | 11:21 |

| ra7eeel | thank you | 11:24 |
| poje | -but | 11:24 |
| TARZEAU | mikeymike-linux: if you want to install it on a i386 computer, you need two floppy boot+driver images that i can give you | 11:24 |
| lani | nooseisloose: Asus z33a with Intel processort | 11:24 |
| holycow | there are degrees towards whatever nazi like system might be called consistency | 11:24 |

| TARZEAU | mikeymike-linux: for sparc,hppa,m68k they can boot from cd | 11:24 |
| mikeymike-linux | TARZEAU, ah ok | 11:24 |
| holycow | i really like linux and its freewheeling ways ... lets lots of ideas be tested | 11:24 |

| ic56 | a2xm: this doesn't make sense. You say you renamed cdrom1 to dvdrom. Yet, dvdrom is a symlink pointint to cdrom0. I find it unlikely that the installer would have created an /media/cdrom1 entry that would be a symlink to a /media/cdrom0 directory. You must have changed other stuff too | 01:20 |

| XiXaQ | RvGaTe, I asked you if you were using the graphical installation, and you said yes. that means you have ubuntu up and running from the live cd. | 01:30 |

| ic56 | a2xm: your irc client might be blocking long messages. Here goes PM | 01:52 |
| Mofo | XiXaQ i have waited about 20 mins and 30 mins | 01:52 |
| ic56 | a2xm: point your browser to http://ca.geocities.com/ic56@rogers.com/65/diskmounter-latest.txt Page down to "Instructions", and read till the next blank line. Follow the instructions to save and run the file. It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer. | 01:52 |
| ic56 | a2xm: The script will ask you if you want to enable NTFS write. Answer no. If you already tried unsuccessfully to add your Windows filesystems to /etc/fstab , add a -b flag to the script invocation. I authored this version, so I can help if anything goes wrong. | 01:53 |

| ic56 | a2xm: Let me clarify, since you failed to answer the original question and you are now confusing it with a different context: shouldn't that be riyanto2 instead of riyanto on the desktop and in /etc/fstab? That's how it was in your old fstab from Ubuntu 5.10 | 03:14 |
| lotwook | Anyone able to help me with the mplayer plugin? When I got to watch video at cnn.com for example, I get just a white screen where the video should play. | 03:14 |
| ompaul | theBeno, a minor note, never tell someone in this channel how to do what you asked, point them to that page please, the reason is as we help new users we expect them to start from the same point | 03:15 |
| Smeggy | anyone recommend an encypted dvd ripper? | 03:15 |
| theBeno | moogman, I run FreeBSD and gentoo systems, but just trying Ubuntu because it's the latest big thing. Especially with LTS support etc. | 03:15 |
| Smeggy | one of my dvds has a crack in the inner circle and i want to rip it before it shatters | 03:15 |
| a2xm | ic56: yes, it should be riyanto2 just like in the old fstab | 03:15 |

| rpedro | gonn: try 'man xgamma' , it's for adjusting screen gamma color, but might work as an workaround until you find out a real solution, as I can't think of anything else | 03:15 |
| theBeno | ompaul, alright | 03:15 |
| frogzoo | cypher1: yep, don't think suspend works the way you think - by default all network drivers are removed, so there's no state to restore, but from the interfaces file | 03:15 |
| gonn | thanks rpedro | 03:16 |
| ompaul | theBeno, if they have root - it is not fair on the people here who are expecting them not to have it and 10 minutes later you find they have been touching all the stuff in their home dir with root what a mess :-) | 03:16 |

| rosa | anyone knows how to get an aolconnection on (k)ubuntu? i am noob so plz explain slow...ly. | 03:17 |
| cypher1 | frogzoo, but it can remember which are the network drivers loaded right | 03:17 |
| rpedro | gonn: np, I never used any under linux but someone else might know of a real control panel for such things | 03:17 |
| ic56 | a2xm: so, did you mistype it when you changed /etc/fstab ? Does your fstab say riyanto or riyanto2 ? Does your /media directory contain a subdirectory named riyanto or riyanto2? | 03:17 |
| cypher1 | Paladine, sorry i could not root cause it... but if you notice the package names are different.. | 03:18 |
| frogzoo | cypher1: I think it just reloads whatever drivers are needed to bring up the interfaces | 03:18 |

| riddlebox | jersymike, when you installed your system, you created a user account with a password | 03:49 |
| ic56 | a2xm: good. I don't know why riyanto doesn't appear on your desktop while data does. They're configured identically, AFAIK, and the reboot should have cleared any discrepancy. So that's as far as I can help you. If you like this setup, keep it. If you prefer the one you had before, rename /etc/fstab and replace it with the backup (/etc/fstab.back...). Either way, you will still have problems with other stuff: | 03:49 |
| jersymike | i instaled it then removed the disk but when i load up it says put a boot disk in | 03:49 |

| dmsantam | jersymike, do you remember accepting that? | 03:50 |

| a2xm | ic56: and how about the partisions that i dont want. all aff them are in the desktop | 03:50 |
| ic56 | a2xm: tehre are virtual filesystems that aren't in the old fstab and which are needed in 6.06 and your cdrom and dvdrom mountpoints aren't setup quite right -- nonstandard. Eventually, you may want to reinstall | 03:51 |

| johso | hiya ppl. I just did a "rm -r *" in the wrong directory. now, on a ext3 partition, this is usually the end of things. but I'm hoping that it would be possible to recover files on a fat32 drive? I've unmounted the drive, so that I wont accidentally destroy my chances to restore. | 05:39 |

| ZorK- | the alternate install cd downloadable from ubuntu.com, is that a non-live-cd? Because i need to install without the live cd | 06:00 |
| bbrazil | ZorK-: it's a non-graphical live cd | 06:00 |

| sladen | tom1502: alternatively, boot with a liveCD and you won't have to enter a password either | 06:00 |
| yabba | damn, they should really stop making live cds when people just want to install the system | 06:01 |
| ZorK- | Hmm.. But how do i get it, so its not live? Cause the live dont seem to work | 06:01 |
| sladen | tom1502: yes, and that requires having a CD doesn't it. And extra knowledge. | 06:01 |
| bbrazil | Jamo: grub is there, it's at the very start of the disk before the partition | 06:01 |

| sladen | Spider: switch to a console (Alt-Ctrl-F1) and then try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 06:20 |
| DBO | section31, 137-139 for the connections, netBIOS uses 445 i think | 06:20 |
| Spider | problem installing Ubuntu off a cd it goes to load the hardware devices then takes ages. when x finally starts with the curser nothing more happens, can anyone help plz | 06:20 |
| sladen | Spider: and select the VESA driver | 06:20 |
| a2xm | ic56: it should be moved the file to /Downloade right? | 06:20 |
| section31 | DBO,tcp? | 06:20 |
| sladen | Spider: see ^^ | 06:20 |
| DBO | section31, but you only need 137 through 139 if you are planning on using IP's | 06:20 |
| DBO | section31, TCP yes | 06:20 |
| section31 | DBO,ok i'll try that thanks | 06:20 |

| Spider | i will try that | 06:20 |

| IseeIsee | subhuman I have an old machine, I don't want to install the full ubuntu, I want xubuntu | 07:35 |
| Subhuman | Xyloc, if so, in /etc/fstab ( use a live cd or do it in windows ) edit the line / and probably the hdaX has changed, so rename them. | 07:35 |

| Subhuman | epimer, im not sure if devilspie works with xgl, i cant see why not. | 07:37 |

| pharcvde | epimer, the os assigns a program to run in a specified block of memory | 07:48 |
| Ninja | debiz, any ideas | 07:48 |
| pharcvde | if the program tries to run outside of that then you get a segmentation fault | 07:48 |
| epimer | ok | 07:48 |
| Subhuman | sri_, yes sure it will just pause, and the upload , in bittorrent you "share", so the more of the file "in this case antitrust" that you upload to others, the faster your downloads, but obv, some people do not want that so they cap it ( give a maximum upload speed) but it also means your download is slower. | 07:48 |

I also looked at what packages are installed relating to mozilla firefox, but nothing seems familiar. I tried in firefox and epiphany. Clues? | 09:56 |
| mrclean | can you elaborate on that? | 09:56 |
| penguin42 | IseeIsee: I doubt it - I'd be surprised if 4.10 doesn't pick up that card - the 3c5xx series 3com are pretty old and they've worked fine for ages; PC Cards are always a bit more touchy | 09:56 |

| dr_willis | IseeIsee, no - thats a major diff - | 10:10 |

| LjL | zuno, we tend to appreciate more questions like "i've tried this, and it gives me the following error (http://url-to-the-pastebin-where-the-error-is)." | 11:30 |

| ubotu | Seveas has a semi-popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | 11:58 |
| bimberi | abonilla: hm, not sure then if it boots via the cd you'd think it would boot directly :/ | 11:58 |
| soundray | lassegs: it's not stupid at all. You can 'cp /etc/screenrc /home/user/.screenrc' and make your user-personal adjustments there. | 11:58 |
| bimberi | !grub | 11:58 |
| 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 | 11:58 |

| crazy4ubuntu | hi all | 12:00 |
| noname | I've a question. I've installed ubuntu for the first time and I'm trying to use apt-get but everytime I wrote exemple apt-get install unrar it gives me this noname@noname-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install unrar | 12:00 |
| noname | Reading package lists... Done | 12:00 |
| noname | Building dependency tree... Done | 12:00 |
| noname | Package unrar is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 12:00 |
| noname | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 12:00 |
| noname | is only available from another source | 12:00 |
| noname | E: Package unrar has no installation candidate | 12:00 |
| abonilla | !paste | 12:00 |
