[12:00] <confrey> andy-, thanks, I know it, but I need to create a new theme, or to modify an existing theme, for example, changing the color of window's background, and so on
[12:01] <andy-> confrey: in that window, click Theme Details
[12:01] <andy-> pretty sure you can change it around in there.
[12:03] <test> Oh yeah and what are emblems all about?
[12:03] <zcat[1] _> grrr; first time I booted this PC everything works. Installed, vereything still working. Upgraded to 686 kernel and it won't boot. Went back to 386 kernel and sound stopped working. Reinstalled 686 kernel and everything works again. WTF!!
[12:03] <confrey> andy-, it's not possible to change anything, I only can choose several themes about windows and icons; I need to change the details of the theme
[12:03] <PanicFo> ive installed apache, php and mysql but apache does recognize mysql
[12:03] <PanicFo> any ideas?
[12:03] <zcat[1] _> starting to think the hardware might not be 100%
[12:03] <stefg> !lamp
[12:03] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[12:04] <mamatoshi> !lamp
[12:04] <zcat[1] _> </rant>
[12:04] <zcat[1] _> will return it to the owner before anything else breaks :)
[12:04] <andy-> confrey:  check http://www.gnomethemes.org/ maybe.
[12:04] <erf> Hey, is there anyway to stop the VNC server builtin to dapper asking if I want the current user to accept the VNC session?
[12:05] <zcat[1] _> erf: checkbox, set a password instead...
[12:05] <confrey> andy-, thanks
[12:05] <erf> zcat[1] , I did
[12:05] <zcat[1] _> uncheck the 'ask user' checkbox..
[12:05] <andy-> confrey: try http://gnometux.blogspot.com/2005/07/quick-theme-changing.html too
[12:06] <test> What are emblems  and sticky used for?
[12:07] <erf> Got it thanks :)
[12:07] <test> What are emblems  and sticky used for?
[12:08] <zcat[1] _> afaik emblems are just to let you make files stand out on the desktop.. sticky makes evexutables run as the owner instead of whoever ran it, directories give new files the same permissions as the directory itself..
[12:09] <tmccrar1> Xorg's build system sucks
[12:09] <tmccrar1> badly
[12:09] <test> zcat[1] _: Thanks
[12:10] <erf> ugh, is there anyway to allow the VNC server access the login screen?
[12:10] <zcat[1] _> found a nice usb keyboard yesterday, would be perfect for my lappy except the lappy's USB plug is also munted :(
[12:10] <vancik> hi
[12:10] <christianpiper> Hey! Help- I just installed dapper on my new desktop. I have installed Nvidia-glx and it gives me 85 Hz instead of 60 hz, but I am still limited to 1024x768.. Dapper on another comp with this screen worked up to 1600x1200, and windows does on this computer. I have an Evga 7900Gt
[12:11] <zcat[1] _> erf: I set mu gdm to log me in.. solves that problem :)
[12:11] <erf> zcat[1] , a bit insecure :)
[12:11] <zcat[1] _> christianpiper: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:11] <zcat[1] _> !resolutions
[12:11] <ubotu> I know nothing about resolutions - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[12:12] <zcat[1] _> !resolution
[12:12] <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
[12:12] <Ackeubu_> my lapy is craching, It crashes emediately when i logg in to gnome, it crashes after some use in fluxbox. a couple of minutes of use... What could that be??
[12:12] <zcat[1] _> erf: if someone has access to the box it's already insecure anyhow.. init=/bin/bash, etc...
[12:13] <Ackeubu_> I mean it stops responding to keyboard and mouse events..
[12:13] <zcat[1] _> Ackeubu_: apt-get remove irda-utils
[12:13] <regress> when I try to mount one of th epartitions, it says it's already mounted or busy...how cna I tell where it's mounted?
[12:13] <vancik> hi
[12:14] <foo> Bleh, I just installed ubuntu and I forgot what password I installed with. heh. How can I reset my password? I would just login as root.. but I guess I can't do that.
[12:14] <Netslayer> how do i install the foomatic print drivers?
[12:14] <erf> Im the only person with an account on the box, but I dont want say my little brother to walk by and start screwing with it whilst Im not logged in
[12:14] <Ackeubu_> zcat[1]  irda-utils was not installed
[12:15] <Mattchewie> :|
[12:15] <mamatoshi> regress: see your /etc/fstab file
[12:15] <zcat[1] _> Ackeubu_: check /var/log/messages and /var/log/xorg.0.log  - one of those should tell you something anyhow.. in my case it was irda support, whick only gets loaded after gdm so it looked like gdm had a problem. took a while to figure out :)
[12:16] <regress> mamatoshi: this is a live DVD, so I don't think it should be lsited there, right?
[12:16] <MTecknology> Seveas, what bot is ubotu?
[12:16] <zcat[1] _> .. and the i found lots of ppl had the same problem.
[12:16] <MTecknology> @lart mtecknology
[12:16] <mamatoshi> regress:: you can try to go the /media/ using nautilus to see the partitions
[12:17] <MTecknology> !lart mtecknology
[12:17] <zcat[1] _> !bot
[12:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about lart mtecknology - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[12:17] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[12:17] <zcat[1] _> !botsnack
[12:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about botsnack - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[12:17] <ironfroggy> how can i move one partition's beginning to a smaller offset from the beginning of the drive?
[12:17] <zcat[1] _> awwww...
[12:19] <zcat[1] _> better tidy up some of the crap around here.. my wife thinks four computers in the lounge room is excessive...
[12:19] <MTecknology> Seveas, so if I want to use eveything that ubotu has, I need to ask you to make it join my room? then you have full permission in my room?
[12:19] <mamatoshi> !info nvida-glx
[12:19] <ubotu> Package nvida-glx does not exist in dapper
[12:20] <mamatoshi> !info nvidia-glx
[12:20] <ubotu> nvidia-glx: NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver. In repository restricted, is optional. Version 1.0.8762+2.6.15.11-3 (dapper), package size 3963 kB, installed size 12240 kB
[12:20] <ttyfscker>  LC_ALL = (unset),    how do i set that?
[12:20] <boga> I need advice on a Dualhead video card for Dapper. I do not do anything unusual save for coding. Thanx
[12:20] <verbose> ttyfscker: is that supposed to be an environment variable?
[12:21] <boga> I need a cheap one too. Should I go AGP or PCI?
[12:21] <ttyfscker> verbose:: yes
[12:21] <verbose> ttyfscker: export LC_ALL=<value>
[12:21] <christianpiper> Oh- Thanks guys! I am workin on it now
[12:21] <Cornellius> I'm looking for a book or a doc that will tell me how Linux works internally. I already have some books, but all they tell are the commands, how to do the same as in Windows, how to configure Grub, Xorg, etc. Anyone have some good suggestions ?
[12:21] <regress> mamatoshi: I had assumed that the live dvd would automount the partitions to the desktop
[12:21] <verbose> if you want it to stick across reboots echo "export LC_ALL=<value>" ~/.bashrc
[12:21] <regress> where would /media be?
[12:21] <Seveas> MTecknology, please don't do offtopic talk in here
[12:21] <ttyfscker> what should it be verbose
[12:21] <verbose> unless you're running a different shell than bash
[12:21] <regress> there is dloppydrive;dvddrive;243MB volume; /boot;filesystem
[12:22] <ttyfscker> en? us_en, utf-8 ??
[12:22] <mjr> boga, I'd just get an ati 9250, supported by free drivers. Failing that, ati <=x800, supported by free drivers also, though only experimental opengl acceleration
[12:23] <boga> mjr: thanx,,,is that PCI or AGP? Which is better anyway?
[12:23] <mamatoshi> regress:: /media is the directory where all the partitions in your hard drive being mounted.
[12:24] <andi5> hi.... how can i unload all alsa modules and start over again? (my usb camera claimed to be audio device no. 1, somehow i has lost conn to computer now ;-))
[12:24] <Cornellius> The kind of book that will let me understand, LFS, Gentoo, ArchLinux, etc
[12:24] <regress> mamatoshi: nothing there
[12:24] <regress> under nautilus filesystem->media
[12:24] <mamatoshi> regress:: try to do the mount command
[12:24] <verbose> ttyfscker: i have no idea, what is telling you it needs it?
[12:25] <ttyfscker> setting locale failed please make sure that your locale settings are correct.. blah blah
[12:25] <ttyfscker> producing a lot of output when installing new packages
[12:26] <livingdaylight> Can anyone say why my screensaver doesn't work any more?
[12:26] <ttyfscker> then i seen one that said cant set locale, please make sure that $LC_* and $LANG are correct
[12:27] <regress> mamatoshi: I used "mount /dev/hdc2 /media/hdd", where I already made the hdd folder. I get "mount: /dev/hdc2 already mounted or hdd busy"
[12:27] <livingdaylight> my screensaver doesn't work any more :|
[12:27] <Ackeubu_> zcat[1] : whats the bluetooth library? how to uninstall?
[12:27] <ttyfscker> livingdaylight:: are you trying to run screensaver as root?
[12:27] <ttyfscker> or sudo?
[12:27] <mamatoshi> regress:: just used "mount", it will show you all the partition that has been mounted
[12:28] <regress> heh, that makes sense
[12:28] <ttyfscker> !ops
[12:28] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[12:28] <livingdaylight> ttyfscker: huh. what has sudo got to do witih root?
[12:28] <gnomefreak> yes?
[12:28] <Hobbsee> ttyfscker: ?
[12:28] <ttyfscker> livingdaylight:: lol
[12:28] <regress> ah man, it's not listed as being mounted...I guess that means hd busy.
[12:28] <regress> any help? I'll start googling
[12:28] <ttyfscker> Hobbsee and gnomefreak i was seeing who the ops were in here
[12:29] <livingdaylight> ttyfscker: its not funny, where is my screensaver?
[12:29] <gnomefreak> i did that too
[12:29] <ttyfscker> dang.. sorry
[12:29] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: my screensaver doesn't work anymore
[12:29] <gnomefreak> kde?
[12:30] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: gnome
[12:30] <mamatoshi> regress:: have you try the "sudo mount /dev/hdc2 /media/hdd"
[12:30] <gnomefreak> ok hmmmm ubuntu version?
[12:30] <regress> mamatoshi: yup
[12:31] <mamatoshi> regress:: have you create the hdd directory in /media ?
[12:31] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: ubuntu version? yes, running ubuntu
[12:31] <regress> yup
[12:31] <olrrai> hi
[12:31] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: what version of ubuntu?
[12:31] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: what screensaver?
[12:31] <olrrai> i cannot find mc on synaptic
[12:31] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: what about it doesnt work?
[12:31] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: used to work, and then i configured a graphics card and since then screensaver doesn't run
[12:31] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: Dapper
[12:31] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: most of them
[12:31] <regress> so I guess the hd really is busy....not sure how. I can mount hdc1 without problem, but seems something is going on with hdc2
[12:31] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: nvidia?
[12:32] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: do you have 3d accell enabled?
[12:32] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: yea, but ive disabled it and i'm back to the defau;lt onboard graphics
[12:32] <mamatoshi> regress:: have you try another mounting point?
[12:32] <regress> I think so, but let me try again
[12:32] <nalioth> !patience > livingdaylight
[12:32] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: the screensavers worked with 3d and dont work now?
[12:33] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: hmmm...as i recall they didn't work with nvidia either, but n0w that ive reverted i expect them to work as they used to
[12:33] <gnomefreak> lol Seveas
[12:33] <livingdaylight> nalioth: what are you on about?
[12:33] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: is it just the gl ones that dont work?
[12:34] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: the gl ones?
[12:34] <Viper550> Guess what, I just found out the best use for XGL
[12:34] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: the screensavers like example glmatrix
[12:34] <gnomefreak> Viper550: please join #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-xgl for that
[12:35] <olrrai> i cannot find mc on synaptic. what is happend?
[12:35] <nalioth> !repos > olrrai
[12:35] <nalioth> olrrai: enable univers and multiverse repos
[12:36] <_3fg> I am trying to boot from a gparted CD too partition my drive for ubuntu
[12:36] <olrrai> ohh thanks
[12:36] <_3fg> I get this error:
[12:36] <_3fg> Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[12:36] <_3fg> what do I do?
[12:36] <_3fg> are there any other choices for partitioning?
[12:36] <ttyfscker> i said i was sorry for doing the !ops once.. how many times do i have to appologize Seveas
[12:36] <dreamcatcher5172> anyone have experience sharing files between windows computers and my ubuntu computer on my home network?\
[12:37] <dreamcatcher5172> I followed the guide and set the password though it still doesnt work
[12:37] <regress> mamatoshi: hmm, actually it says the directoy is busy
[12:37] <regress> example: "sudo mount /dev/hdc2 /myhdd" ->
[12:37] <nalioth> _3fg: the ubuntu installer has gparted on it
[12:38] <regress> mount: /dev/hdc2 already mounted or /myhdd busy
[12:38] <_3fg> nalioth: I used the ubuntu livecd on another computer and it erased the drive when I manually partitioned
[12:38] <Mysta> LjL: are you there?
[12:39] <mamatoshi> regress:: hmm, it is really weird.. :-) maybe because it is the LiveDVD system..
[12:39] <LjL> Mysta: yes
[12:39] <regress> yeah, that seems it probably
[12:39] <dreamcatcher5172> anyone have experience sharing folders on ubuntu with windows computers on the home network?
[12:39] <CalusoXP> hello
[12:40] <mamatoshi> regress:: sorry, i can't help :D
[12:40] <stefg> dreamcatcher5172: no big deal, what's teh prob
[12:40] <regress> haha, no problem!
[12:40] <Mysta> LjL: woops, figured it out. sorry
[12:40] <_3fg> nalioth: any help?
[12:40] <regress> I'll keep it up...i just recorded some chinese language tapes to mp3, and I wanted to get those mp3's off before I install ubuntu
[12:40] <CalusoXP> I need some help with the partitioning
[12:41] <foo> Wow, I just installed ubuntu and forgot the password I used. How do I go about resetting it?
[12:41] <CalusoXP> is there any guide-
[12:41] <dreamcatcher5172> i followed the network guide from the website and the password is set though i still cant access files from windows comps
[12:41] <Kyral> What about partitioning?
[12:41] <Kyral> I can give you some advice
[12:41] <CalusoXP> yes pls
[12:41] <_3fg> I need partitioning help too
[12:41] <Kyral> First off
[12:42] <_3fg> can we all go into another channel?
[12:42] <Kyral> having a partition for /home is VERY wise
[12:42] <Kyral> Well, if more than one person needs it, and for once I'm ontopic....
[12:42] <_3fg> how do I set that up?
[12:42] <delight> aloa ppl ;)
[12:42] <stefg> !samba > dreamcatcher5172
[12:42] <CalusoXP> i want to keep home, root, tmp and others dirs in different partitions
[12:42] <Kyral> (Keep in mind I haven't used the Desktop INstaller, just the old fashioned one
[12:42] <Kyral> CalusoXP: you mean /root or /
[12:43] <stefg> dreamcatcher5172: you did install samba, didn#t you?
[12:43] <CalusoXP> every dir
[12:43] <Kyral> The most common splitup is /boot, /, /home, /usr, and /var on their own partitions
[12:43] <Kyral> The others just don't matter
[12:43] <CalusoXP> hhhmm
[12:43] <Kyral> and it becomes a pain to keep track of how much space is on what
[12:43] <_3fg> and I want to partition the drive while keeping the stuff that is on there safe
[12:43] <CalusoXP> somebody told me that is good to keep tmp dir on a different partition
[12:43] <Kyral> _3fg: Ain't possible
[12:44] <_3fg> orly?
[12:44] <Kyral> Yes
[12:44] <_3fg> So
[12:44] <Kyral> I mean it IS, but you'd have to do the old data suffle
[12:44] <_3fg> I can't have windows on one partition?
[12:44] <Kyral> Yes you can
[12:44] <_3fg> how?
[12:44] <Kyral> Install Windows
[12:44] <bobovski> hi all, can someone help me with a problem specific to the totem video player?
[12:44] <Kyral> then install Linux :P
[12:44] <_3fg> um
[12:44] <_3fg> ok I installed windows
[12:44] <Kyral> the installer should take care of resizing
[12:45] <Kyral> NTFS is happy about resizing
[12:45] <_3fg> the other computer I tried it on erased the whole hard drive
[12:45] <CalusoXP> but he will need to leave space w/o formating
[12:45] <Kyral> oh, but never about moving its beginning point
[12:45] <Kyral> this goes for ANY filesystem
[12:45] <Kyral> they HATE that
[12:45] <_3fg> ?
[12:45] <Kyral> (Firsthand experance)
[12:45] <_3fg> I just need to keep windows on this hd
[12:45] <Kyral> You can shrink and resize
[12:45] <_3fg> and also partition it for ubuntu
[12:45] <Kyral> just don't move where it "begins"
[12:45] <_3fg> ok how
[12:46] <Kyral> the installer should have a facility
[12:46] <mee22> is there a step by step guide for installing a 3com wireless card.. i have the file(s) compressed. I an very new to the ubuntu OS
[12:46] <_3fg> the ubuntu installer?
[12:46] <stefg> CalusoXP: i'd go for / (root) ~ 5GB, /var 1,5 Gb and /home for the rest. Maybe some extra fat32 partition for sharing files with win, if present. have enough swap and read about tmpfs to get /tmp in virtual memeory
[12:46] <Kyral> If not just burn a copy of Knoppix
[12:46] <delight> i had a vga=option starting my compter with a fb @ 1600x1200x32 ... i had it from some suse 10.1 installation ;) ... now the new kernel updates killed my menu.lst ? can't find that anywhere on the net ...  anybody  knows about the right vga= option for such an hight resoution .. it was something with 8xx don't remember right thou
[12:46] <bobovski> or, even, is there a better dvd player available for ubuntu?
[12:46] <bobovski> (better than totem)
[12:46] <Kyral> and use QtParted
[12:46] <Kyral> Xine...VLC...Kaffiene....
[12:46] <Kyral> Codiene....
[12:46] <_3fg> VLC is my choice
[12:46] <delight> if important ... its an ati 9200 basicly ... in reality mobility fire gl 2
[12:46] <_3fg> Kyral: do I use the partitioner on the LiveCD?
[12:47] <delight> t2
[12:47] <foo> Is there a way to reset my user pass with ubuntu??
[12:47] <bobovski> 3fg: ok, apt-getting
[12:47] <Kyral> _3fg: if its GParted than its simple :P
[12:47] <CalusoXP> hey thx thats what i wanted to know :D
[12:47] <bobbyd> hi
[12:47] <bobbyd> does anyone here have a guide for setting up qmail on dapper?
[12:47] <_3fg> Kyral: sorry, that doesn't really help
[12:47] <CalusoXP> thank you stefg
[12:47] <Kyral> I mean (damnit I hate GUIs because its hard to give directions for the stupid things)
[12:47] <bobovski> _3fg: will I need to reboot or will it run straight from apt-get install?
[12:47] <Kyral> Ever use PartitionMagic?
[12:47] <Sleeping_Sloth> evening - got a repository question for you:
[12:48] <_3fg> bobovski: what?
[12:48] <_3fg> oh VLC?
[12:48] <_3fg> I dunno
[12:48] <Sleeping_Sloth> how do I prevent ubuntu asking for my ubuntu dvd every time I apt-get something?
[12:48] <dreamcatcher5172> samba is installed and so is smb something or other
[12:48] <Kyral> The only thing you have to reboot for is a kernel update
[12:48] <Kyral> Sleeping_Sloth: comment out the CD line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:48] <_3fg> Kyral: I haven't used partition magic
[12:49] <dreamcatcher5172> i also set up the config file but i wanna set it up to where there is no password needed to access my shared folders from a windows computer on the network
[12:49] <Kyral> _3fg: just fire it up and it should be somewhat obvious
[12:49] <_3fg> I know
[12:49] <_3fg> it looked obvious on the other computer
[12:49] <_3fg> I made 2 partitions
[12:49] <_3fg> one was ext3
[12:49] <_3fg> one was swap
[12:50] <_3fg> when I went to the next step, it said both were 0 kb
[12:50] <Kyral> Windows cannot play with ext3 :P
[12:50] <stefg> dreamcatcher5172: then you need to set up an account on the linux box withe the exact same credentials (username/password) like you win-account
[12:50] <Kyral> Didja commit the change
[12:50] <Sleeping_Sloth> kyral:  lol - idiot. thanks, I thought I already *had* done that.... but I was being a muppet. I'd reinstated an old sources.list which didnt have cd commented..
[12:50] <Kyral> GParted and QtParted don't make the changes instantly
[12:50] <_3fg> Kyral: the only thing I could do was hit next
[12:50] <_3fg> and it made the change
[12:50] <bobovski> _3fg: ok, how do I set up VLC to be the default player for dvds?
[12:51] <Kyral> I haven't used those two things in a long time
[12:51] <foo> Is there a way to reset my user pass with ubuntu??
[12:51] <Kyral> Whenever I repartition its a complete nuke of the HD
[12:51] <Kyral> !password
[12:51] <ubotu> Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StrongPasswords
[12:51] <_3fg> Sorry bobovski, I haven't used it under Linux yet
[12:51] <dreamcatcher5172> so if a windows comp has username and password...thats what i have to set up?
[12:51] <bobovski> _3fg: no prob, thanks
[12:51] <_3fg> I used it on mac and  pc
[12:51] <dreamcatcher5172> instead of my own user account?
[12:52] <Kyral> _3fg: I dunno. I haven't used them in a LONG time
[12:52] <_3fg> ok
[12:53] <stefg> dreamcatcher5172: yes... if your win logon is 'foo' with password 'bar' have the same account 'foo' with password 'bar' on the samba server... man smbpasswd helps a lot :-)
[12:54] <trev__> i am getting very blurry video with totem comapred to WNP in XP, whats wrong
[12:54] <bobovski> totem sucks, I can't get it to work at all
[12:54] <bobovski> but, got VLC to work now :)
[12:54] <trev__> what should i use instead
[12:54] <bobovski> VLC is working well for me
[12:55] <stefg> gstreamer creates the vacuum.... but vlc is best anyway
[12:55] <trev__> if i installed my nvidea drivers they are active right
[12:55] <trev__> because that could casue it if they weren't
[12:55] <dreamcatcher5172> thanks
[12:56] <tuxtux> good night
[12:56] <abo> what is the best irc client for gnome?
[12:56] <bobovski> gaim
[12:56] <Darkprince> xchat is nice
[12:56] <Kyral> XChat
[12:56] <Kyral> or Irssi
[12:56] <Kyral> Gaim's IRC Client is a JOKE
[12:56] <Guest477> hiya all
[12:57] <trev__> use chatzilla
[12:57] <bobovski> works well enough for me...coming from mirc on windows
[12:57] <Guest477> konversation here
[12:57] <Guest477> :)
[12:57] <Kyral> Yah Konversation :P
[12:57] <Kyral> and stuff the "for GNOME" and "for KDE" terms :P
[12:57] <bobovski> christ, how does autorun work in ubuntu?
[12:57] <Guest477> ok so i wonder is anyone here farmilliar with www.homestead.com, it prohibits access to linux machines
[12:57] <bobovski> I want /dev/dvd to open with VLC now, not Totem
[12:58] <Guest477> wondering if there is a way to login
[12:58] <Kyral> How does it block access to Linux Machines?
[12:58] <Guest477> one moment
[12:59] <Guest477> You are using a computer that is not compatible with Homestead. To access the Homestead website, please return to www.homestead.com with a computer running:
[12:59] <Guest477>     * Windows 98, 2000, Me, NT, or XP.
[12:59] <Guest477>     * Mac OS X running Firefox 1.0 and above
[12:59] <Kyral> ...How does it CHECK that
[12:59] <Guest477> not sure
[12:59] <Guest477> at login time though
[12:59] <Guest477> i can browse their website
[12:59] <Guest477> it is a webpage hosting service
[01:00] <Guest477> i cannot login to my account
[01:00] <stefg> just accept they don't want you as a customer. go to a linux friendly webhoster :-)
[01:00] <Kyral> hehe they are bullshitting
[01:00] <Guest477> that is EXACTLY what i said :)
[01:01] <Kyral> "Java is different on OSX so you can't use it"
[01:01] <Kyral> Sounds like MS has a hand in this
[01:01] <trev__> i figured it out, i forgot to activate my drivers
[01:01] <Guest477> i am able to access many other sites, pogo and yahoo games, with no more than annoyance problems
[01:01] <Guest477> ty for your input u 2
[01:01] <Guest477> i agree with you
[01:02] <Guest477> they are not interested in service to consumers
[01:02] <Guest477> but to microshaft
[01:02] <Guest477> :)
[01:02] <Kyral> Ironic considering how the web practically runs on *Nix
[01:02] <trev__> how do i tell which video card driver you have running?

[01:04] <foo> If I want to set up openvpn on ubuntu, I need to build from source right? I don't see it in apt anyways.
[01:05] <theturtlemoves> um, i just installed kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop from aptitude so that i can try them out and it's asking me to configure postfix
[01:05] <sysdoc> Anyone have a url for qmail security?

[01:05] <theturtlemoves> do i need to pick a configuration? i use evolution right now to get my mail from gmail and a campus exchange server
[01:05] <noneee> libXrender is not present in the libxrender-dev package...
[01:05] <stefg> noneee: all *-dev packs installed?
[01:06] <ChrisC_> The software update app is crashing my system ... when I click on the linux-kernel item to see what the changes are, it hangs and then crashes.  Anyone else seeing this?
[01:06] <sysdoc> abou, kubuntu runs the KDE desktop manager
[01:06] <noneee> stefg not all the *-dev packages

[01:07] <noneee> I just miss the file libXrender.la but I can say that in libxrender-dev_0.9.0.2-4_i386.deb the file is present
[01:08] <noneee> that's the debian package
[01:08] <Guest477> hey thanks ubuto
[01:09] <stefg> noneee: imho you need at least the libx11-dev
[01:09] <Guest477> xubuntu and the variants all have separate download pages

[01:09] <Guest477> all CD images are live

[01:10] <Guest477> ok thanks lol

[01:11] <skane> i mean Guest477 , not 677
[01:11] <Guest477> yes i have xubuntu desktop cd, skane, and it is live
[01:11] <Guest477> would you like a link?

[01:20] <Darkprince> use vi
[01:20] <olrrai> thanks
[01:20] <Fracture> stefg: well.. since I haven't changed the configuration in the last few weeks, and the only thing that has happend is reboots after freezing, I presumed that a file system corruption caused a library to fail
[01:20] <bobbyd> Ninja, the username and pass for your user?

[01:23] <Fracture> invalid operand: 0000 [#1] 
[01:23] <n3rdism> philip: you might wanna try a #debian for that
[01:23] <jrib> philipacamaniac: best to just ask your question
[01:23] <philipacamaniac> thanks
[01:23] <not_in_use_420> Is it possible to install Ubuntu from an iPod (through USB) with just the ISO, or does it HAVE to be burned to a CD?
[01:23] <not_in_use_420> Like, can you install the ISO onto another partition on the computer?
[01:23] <n3rdism> that would be sweet
[01:24] <philipacamaniac> I'm creating a binary debian package (no source), and I can't quite figure out how to get a menu item to show up.
[01:24] <not_in_use_420> Cuz...iPod just external hdd..
[01:24] <Ninja> whats the defualt user name and password for a shared folder
[01:24] <Darkprince> you would have to be able to boot your machine from the ipod
[01:24] <jvai> hey every1! here's a senario: i want to change an ooold Red Hat server to an Dapper 1, what do i save? & how? does "tar" or 'bzip" need to be involved?,
[01:24] <stefg> not_in_use_420: depends on wether the ipod is already recognized by the install system
[01:24] <not_in_use_420> Windows 98.
[01:24] <philipacamaniac> I've put desktop files in ./usr/share/applications, ./usr/share/applnk, and ./usr/share/gnome/apps
[01:24] <not_in_use_420> I'm scared of it, lol.
[01:25] <Darkprince> take your redhat server and just nuke it... install ubunu and then snap all your redhat CD's in half
[01:25] <stefg> not_in_use_420: that's irrelevant for an ubuntu install
[01:25] <Ninja> whats the defualt user name and password for a shared folder
[01:25] <Darkprince> did you try your current username and password?
[01:25] <not_in_use_420> Thing is...that this computer only has like 400mhz.
[01:26] <not_in_use_420> So, I am thinking that kubuntu .. will be what I am going to use.
[01:26] <stefg> not_in_use_420: be safe, do a good ol'fashioned install from CD
[01:26] <jrib> philipacamaniac: k, try #ubuntu-motu , I'm not familiar with setting up the menu
[01:26] <philipacamaniac> thanks
[01:27] <not_in_use_420> Yea... thats the way I usually do it. But I don't have access to a CD burner right now, and I have the ISO on my iPod. So... I was wondering if I could do anything with it.
[01:27] <not_in_use_420> Like, I know Daemon tools can emulate ISOs....or Alcohol 120.
[01:27] <MeGaQuArK> Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Firefox for Linux has a memory leak in it?
[01:27] <jvai> hey every1! here's a senario: i want to change an ooold Red Hat server to an Dapper 1, what do i save? & how? does "tar" or 'bzip" need to be involved?,

[01:31] <Shak-> is it possible to run an existing Windows Install with VMware?
[01:32] <stefg> no
[01:32] <Shak-> ah hmm
[01:32] <stefg> different 'hardware'
[01:32] <Shak-> so if I install windows xp again through vmware, would I have to run firewalls/anti-virus inside that installation?
[01:33] <stefg> yup
[01:33] <Shak-> o_O
[01:33] <Shak-> how much space does a fresh windows xp sp2 install take up, approximately?
[01:33] <redcard> Shak-: A significant amount :)  I think it's up to one or two gig now
[01:33] <Shak-> i've only got 9GB free
[01:33] <stefg> forget about the firewall in wi , BTW
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Shak-: Why are you bringing Windows along at all?
[01:34] <stefg> *win
[01:34] <not_in_use_420> I think it's more like 3 or 4GB.
[01:34] <not_in_use_420> Can google it.
[01:34] <Shak-> Jack_Sparrow: well to avoid dual booting
[01:34] <jvai> ok.. if i'm upgrading from hoary to dapper, & i like my config, what files do i save? & how do i save them? is "tar" needed?
[01:34] <olrrai> how can I create a launcher of any X programm as root?
[01:34] <redcard> Shak-: It's not worth it, to be honest.
[01:34] <Shak-> oh, how come?
[01:34] <Shak-> too slow?
[01:34] <redcard> The time it takes you to reboot will be negated by the slowness of vmware
[01:34] <jvai> :/
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Shak-: IT will never run a Windows program as well as in WIndows alone.
[01:35] <redcard> Let's come at it another angle.  What program are you wanting to run?
[01:35] <Shak-> so lag is the main issue here then?
[01:35] <Darkprince> i tried running World of Warcraft with Cedega and it was unplayable
[01:35] <Darkprince> i may not have had it set up right though
[01:35] <Shak-> lol im not gonna be playing robust 3d games lol
[01:35] <Jeruvy> Shak-: not lag, latency, disk latency, cpu latency, etc..
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Shak-: To run games you have a better option, to run apps you have another..
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> LEt me rephrase that
[01:36] <stefg> Shak-: no 3D in vmware
[01:36] <Shak-> im only gonna be popping up a couple of applications, some debugging
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks
[01:36] <Shak-> if I can move my mouse around and click, have a couple applications running at once then im fine
[01:37] <redcard> Shak: But what applications are you going to be running?
[01:37] <Shak-> but if the mouse is gonna drag along, ages to open a simple folder, then no it wouldnt work out
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> You still have not said WHICH apps
[01:37] <fogos> hi, if i have a cable internet connection no-ip could work?
[01:37] <Shak-> Im sure I'll be running a bunch of developer apps, Photoshop,  Swish
[01:37] <redcard> Shak-: I would not advise Photoshop.
[01:38] <redcard> Not through vmware
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> shak, not worth your time
[01:38] <hawkaloogie> Shak-, use Gimp and Inkscape
[01:38] <olrrai> gksu krusader --user=roo
[01:38] <Shak-> hmm
[01:38] <terror> Hola
[01:38] <x_or> Are postgres configuration files installed on every ubuntu system by default?  I deleted everything in /var/lib/postgres and now cannot figure out to reinstall the default configuration files.  Any clues?  "apt-get --reinstall install postgresql-7.4" does not do the trick.
[01:38] <ballpointcarrot> x_or: sudo dpkg-reconfigure postgresql-7.4?  try that.
[01:38] <Shak-> but I still havent pinpointed what exactly the issue is?
[01:39] <stefg> speed and memory
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> THey will run like sh!!
[01:39] <redcard> The issue is that vmware is a virtual machine.
[01:39] <x_or> ballpointcarrot:  No, that doesn't restore them.  Thanks though.
[01:39] <Darkprince> honestly i think you're just better off to boot into windows
[01:39] <Shak-> hmm
[01:40] <redcard> It's going to create a computer in memory inside your computer.   Applications like Photoshop are dependant on memory and graphics, both things that virtualized machines lack power on
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> I really like digikam but no one seems to use it..
[01:40] <Darkprince> --at least if you're playing games... for programming or debugging i'm not sure
[01:40] <stefg> did anyone get Photoshop to work with wine?
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> NOt here
[01:40] <Darkprince> i'm assuming you guys are dual-booting?
[01:40] <Redman276> im having a  problem with the  ati fix
[01:40] <Shak-> Darkprince: I am at least

[01:41] <Darkprince> yeah redman... i'm working on that as well

[01:41] <Redman276> did u try the fix i nthe fourm ?
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Dual boot here... XP is for games only on this box
[01:41] <Shak-> redcard: so what kind of applications do people run on vmware?
[01:41] <ballpointcarrot> what's the problem?
[01:41] <Redman276> and still get that annoying  api  problem
[01:41] <lg8> not sure

[01:42] <ballpointcarrot> Redman, Darkprince: waht issues are you having?
[01:42] <redcard> Shak-: Honestly?  I don't use it much for other than testing at work, where I write Windows programs

[01:44] <Lord_Athur> saiko, nothing else? hahaha
[01:44] <Redman276> its  X,Y offsets
[01:44] <jvai> hey all help
[01:44] <redcard> Though, I would suggest dropping mirc and figuring things out inside ubuntu to replace what MIRC offers you
[01:44] <jvai> ok.. if i'm upgrading from hoary to dapper, & i like my config, what files do i save? & how do i save them? is "tar" needed?
[01:44] <saiko> Lord_Athur: ;)
[01:44] <Redman276> i live with a 1/16" black bar  in windows
[01:45] <Redman276> ;)
[01:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Dosent KVirc use the same scripting language?
[01:45] <kbrooks> jvai: no
[01:45] <kbrooks> jvai: you cant hoary -> dapper in one go
[01:45] <Darkprince> so i should just get used to the offset in linux?
[01:45] <Redman276> yepper
[01:45] <kbrooks> jvai: you must hoary -> breezy -> dapper
[01:45] <Darkprince> i've had ubuntu installed for all of an hour
[01:46] <Darkprince> and it's 1000% times better than fedora already
[01:46] <jvai> noo, i mean my config setting, like networking/ stuff like that
[01:46] <Jack_Sparrow> jvai: Fresh install would be the best..
[01:46] <ballpointcarrot> glad you think so Darkprince
[01:46] <Redman276> but  my  libGL.so.1.2  issue  is not resolving  easily
[01:46] <Shak-> redcard: wait, how exactly does Wine work and what can I run through it?
[01:46] <jvai> oooo
[01:46] <redcard> Shak-: Lemme point you here: www.winehq.com
[01:46] <Darkprince> ok, my next problem involves xine media player
[01:46] <jvai> hey every1! here's a senario: i want to change an ooold Red Hat server to an Dapper 1, what do i save? & how? does "tar" or 'bzip" need to be involved?,
[01:46] <jvai> that was the original question
[01:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Darkprince: CHeck out the scripting in KVirc, I seem to remember they were similar, but I have not used Mirc in years
[01:47] <advant> I tried installing glib 2.12.0, but when I run configure for another app it says pkg-config returns 2.12.0, but GLIB is returning 2.10.3, how can I sync it all up to 2.12.0 ?
[01:47] <x_or> Anyone know how to restore the postgres configuration files in /var/lib/postgresql?  I accidentally deleted them.
[01:47] <kbrooks> x_or: do u have a recent backup
[01:47] <jvai> my company has an oold red hat servr for our website
[01:47] <x_or> kbrooks:  No.
[01:47] <RadiantFire> x_or: do you know what the postgresql package is
[01:47] <Darkprince> says i'm missing an audio codec for MPEG's ... also, i can't play fraps videos
[01:47] <RadiantFire> you can use sudo dpkg-reconfigure on the package name
[01:47] <jvai> i want to help, by introducing dapper
[01:47] <RadiantFire> it will restore defauolt config
[01:47] <Jack_Sparrow> jvai: You want to save your redhat configuration for use in Ubuntu?
[01:47] <Shak-> redcard: interesting, how well do applications run in Wine?
[01:47] <jvai> yes!
[01:48] <redcard> Shak-: That's varied :) Check out the AppDB under the Support thing on the right

[01:48] <Redman276> anyone  had  problems with replacing  libGL.so.1.2  then getting it to work ?
[01:48] <jvai> but the server is using an older version of gnome
[01:48] <x_or> RadiantFire:  dpkg -l | grep postgres shows three packages:  postgresql-7.4,  postgresql-client-7.4, postgresql-common
[01:48] <Shak-> well, Diablo II Demo is at the top of the list, so thats a start
[01:48] <kbrooks> jvai: what version?
[01:48] <jvai> & it's not under support from rh
[01:48] <ucordes> does anybody know a good irc client with DCC support?
[01:48] <redcard> Shak-: My turn for a question. :)  How long have you been in Linux/Ubuntu?
[01:48] <RadiantFire> x_or: you probably want the postgresql-7.4
[01:48] <x_or> RadiantFire:  I have deinstalled all three of these, deleted the postgres user using userdel -r postgres.
[01:48] <ballpointcarrot> Redman: are you using the libGL.so.1.2 provided in the thread?
[01:48] <Redman276> yes
[01:48] <Redman276> and  i still get the same  errors
[01:48] <Shak-> haha, 2 days? :)
[01:48] <jvai> i dunno, i couldnt find it
[01:49] <Shak-> but I have used linux before, via a shell prompt though
[01:49] <Shak-> never had GNOME
[01:49] <redcard> Cool.
[01:49] <x_or> RadiantFire:  The problem is that no matter what I do, it will not install the configuration files.  I can install the packages without issue.  But, the configuration files are nowhere to be found.
[01:49] <redcard> Gonna suggest two books for ya.
[01:49] <jvai> oo gnome 2.0  is all it said, what ver. of rh is that?
[01:49] <RadiantFire> x_or: use dpkg-reconfigure on the packages
[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> ucordes:  did you look at kvirc?
[01:49] <jersymike2> hello could someone help me with knoppix live cd?
[01:49] <david__> hi, i am trying to play a dvd on my movie player, but i get an error when i try to load it... error is: "No URI handler implemented for "dvd"."
[01:49] <redcard> Ubuntu Hacks, by O Reiley and Assoc.  And the next one isn't out yet, but it's The Ubuntu Book.
[01:49] <Shak-> cool I'll look into that
[01:50] <ucordes> jack_Sparrow: i will check it out
[01:50] <Shak-> right now im gonna get Wine, it looks just like what I need, thanks redcard!
[01:50] <redcard> Shak-: No problem :)
[01:50] <x_or> RadiantFire:  I reconfigured all of those packages, still nothing in /var/lib/postgresql
[01:50] <jvai> we couldnt even make firefox work on it, & it has the old mozilla browser on it
[01:50] <Redman276> is ther an earlier   or  diff   libGL.so.1.2 i should be using for an 8500 card   than the  one on the  thread ?
[01:51] <RadiantFire> x_or: trying apt-get --purge remove the packages and then installing agian
[01:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !tell Jack_Sparrow about ati
[01:51] <x_or> RadiantFire:  Yeah, I tried even that.  I am stumped.
[01:51] <jvai> i may just need the some config files & network settings saved, but which 1?

[01:52] <advant> Anyone know how to install a new glib version over the dapper installed 2.10.3 ?
[01:52] <jvai> i heard that /home, /var/ & /etc can be tranfered from distro to distro, is that true?
[01:53] <stefg> in theory
[01:53] <RadiantFire> jvai: home can, I'm not sure about /etc and /var
[01:53] <jvai> oo ok
[01:53] <jersymike2> hello could someone help me with setting a portable hdd as a normal hdd with the knoppix live cd?
[01:53] <RadiantFire> the /etc/ and /var are sometimes distro specific
[01:53] <stefg> if it's LSB compliant distros
[01:53] <Redman276> is ther a diff libGL.so.1.2 that i should use for a radeon 8500  than the one listed in the thread for fix ?
[01:53] <jvai> would /home have the website config & network settings in the old red hat install
[01:53] <ballpointcarrot> jvai: /etc and /var copying might run you into trouble with program versions.
[01:54] <jvai> ok
[01:54] <stefg> but i'd rather leave /etc/init.d as setup by the installer :-)
[01:54] <jvai> oo
[01:55] <Redman276> !ati
[01:55] <jvai> red hat is a funny beast
[01:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto

[01:55] <Indigo423> hi everybody
[01:55] <Indigo423> has anybody some experience with ubuntu 6.06 LTS server and VM-Ware Server 1.0 Final?
[01:56] <stefg> jvai: things changed a lot... don't expect anything to work in practice. you might find it usefull to have the old files as a reference, but in general it's a fresh install
[01:56] <Flannel> erlen1: like, streaming video?  You could watch it via samba (or any other file sharing sort of thing) just as a regular file
[01:56] <erlen1> i didnt get that to work
[01:56] <jvai> i was thinking the same... we talked of doing that with a fresh box @ stefg
[01:56] <erlen1> didnt open in VLC until i moved the movie over to my PC
[01:57] <erlen1> or Totem for that sake
[01:57] <AndyCooll_> Indigo423: yeah, what do you want to know?
[01:57] <jvai> i'm afraid of dependencies/library problems
[01:58] <linuxgoober> can i add all the sources from http://www.apt-get.org/main/ to my sources list?
[01:58] <Indigo423> did you know how many memory can ubuntu have?
[01:58] <kbrooks> jvai: there is really no dependency hell in ubuntu, except fr upgrades
[01:58] <stefg> Indigo423: up to 64GB with big-iron kernel
[01:58] <kbrooks> linuxgoober: don't
[01:58] <RadiantFire> Indigo423: can you clearify what memory you mean
[01:59] <RadiantFire> Indigo423: technical a stock kernel should be able toa ddress 4GB
[01:59] <Indigo423> 64GB of RAM ??
[01:59] <Indigo423> wow
[01:59] <linuxgoober> kbrooks why?
[01:59] <jvai> ok, fresh install of dapper in new box,  copy the network/website config from the old red hat box, work from there
[01:59] <ballpointcarrot> linuxgoober: theoretically, it's possible, but i would highly recommend against it.  You _will_ end up breaking many things.
[01:59] <linuxgoober> ok
[01:59] <abou> !mplayer
[01:59] <ubotu> No fonts in mplayer? Try " sudo apt-get install mplayer-fonts " ( multiverse must be enabled see !repos ).
[01:59] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[01:59] <kbrooks> linuxgoober: they have packages *made for* debian
[01:59] <jvai> it's the only safe/painless solution i see
[01:59] <linuxgoober> any full list for *buntu?
[02:00] <Indigo423> is the big-iron kernel an 64bit kernel ??
[02:00] <abou> how can i install a plugin in firefox to play movies?
[02:00] <AndyCooll_> Indigo423: The amount of memory you select should be based on how much memory your box has. My box has 1024, so I usually select half of that
[02:00] <kbrooks> linuxgoober: doubt thher is a hub
[02:00] <linuxgoober> k
[02:00] <x_or> RadiantFire:  If I run:   "apt-get remove postgresql-7.4" it says "Package postgresql-7.4 is not installed, so not removed"  Yet, if I run "dpkg -l | grep postgres" I see "pc  postgresql-7.4                        7.4.8-17ubuntu1.3                  object-relational SQL database, version 7.4"  Does this indicate something is wrong?
[02:00] <kbrooks> linuxgoober: hub = link of links
[02:01] <RadiantFire> x_or: did you attempt to remove postresql-common?
[02:01] <x_or> Yes, I think so.
[02:02] <regress> if my hd has "Linux LVM" as the system type, how can I mount it?
[02:02] <Indigo423> i would like install an vm-ware server based on an ubuntu server, one of my first questions was, can ubuntu address more than 4 GB RAM with an 32 bit kernel.
[02:02] <kbrooks> regress: use /dev/mapper
[02:02] <regress> is there a man page for that?
[02:02] <juanca7777_> hi everyone
[02:03] <Indigo423> i have seen some problems with m$ os, and i must first activate PAE support and some other dirty things to address more then 4 GB RAM
[02:03] <kbrooks> regress: No.  It is a directory of LVM devices which you can mount
[02:03] <Indigo423> ;)
[02:03] <juanca7777_> i am looking for the pkginfo and pkgtrans packages, but i don't see them anywhere
[02:03] <stefg> Indigo423: yes, but not with the stock-kernel... you'll have to recompile
[02:03] <x_or> RadiantFire:  Yes, I think so.
[02:03] <regress> so mount /dev/myHDwithLVM /dev/mapper?
[02:03] <jvai> ok ppl thank u for the info, it's bout 2 rain, & this starbucks is too far a walk from home
[02:03] <Redman276> when i run fglrxinfo , i get a  list of  [fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for SelectTextureSGIS
[02:03] <kbrooks> regress: No. I said *directory*
[02:04] <ballpointcarrot> regress: i think it's mount /dev/mapper/(insert drive here)
[02:04] <regress> ah
[02:04] <kbrooks> regress: no... it doesnt have directories under there
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Redman276: is that an onboard video card or plug in card?
[02:04] <Redman276> ive  copied the libGL.so.1.2  from the  fourms   for the fix ,  but still get the error   any ideas ?
[02:04] <stefg> !info linux-image-server
[02:04] <ubotu> linux-image-server: Linux kernel image on Server Equipment.. In repository main, is optional. Version 2.6.15.24 (dapper), package size 22 kB, installed size 52 kB
[02:04] <Redman276> plug in
[02:04] <kbrooks> regress: also, specify a mount point
[02:04] <Redman276> radeon 8500  128mb
[02:05] <regress> kbrooks: could you give me an example command?
[02:05] <kbrooks> mount /dev/... /path/to/place/where/you/want/it/mounted
[02:05] <Redman276> agp card
[02:05] <Redman276> non onboard
[02:05] <clarity_> hey... during ubuntu's install can you specify to install a smp kernel
[02:05] <kbrooks> regress: I can't...
[02:05] <regress> in this case is hdc2
[02:05] <crimsun> clarity_: 686 is smp by default.
[02:05] <kbrooks> regress: i dont have a LVM device
[02:05] <clarity_> beautiful
[02:05] <erlen1> Ok, so i wind my way to the file via samba in the windows network, but none of my movie players is able to play the movie via the network, anyone knows what might be wring? the file works when i manually move it to this computer. In the movie players it just says "Playing 0:00"
[02:05] <regress> I was using "sudo mount /dev/hdc2 /media/hdd"
[02:06] <juanca7777_> anyone knows where i can find the 'pkginfo' and 'pkgtrans' packages, in order to use alien to convert a solaris .pkg to a .deb file?
[02:06] <sysdoc> Any qmail guru's in here?
[02:06] <Indigo423> stefg: the stock-kernel is default in the linux images, which i can download with apt ?
[02:06] <david__> is it possible to play a dvd on ubuntu? i tried and got an error... i wanted to load it and put it onto my site, its online a small amount of video
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[02:06] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[02:06] <regress> ah, I see it's pretty different in the mapper folder
[02:06] <regress> I'll google around, thanks
[02:07] <jrinco11> hey ya'll, i'm quite new to this mirc, but i'm lookin for help on my ubuntu installation on an older laptop of mine
[02:07] <jrinco11> i was wondering if someone could help me out
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Just ask your question
[02:07] <david__> !dvd?
[02:07] <Redman276> any idea  Jack ?
[02:07] <ubotu> I know nothing about dvd? - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:07] <stefg> Indigo423: ubuntu installs with a 386 (non arch-optimized) kernel. But after installation you've got a wealth of different kernels for different scenarios to choose from
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Redman276: Did you go to the ATI site, that install looks pretty straight forward
[02:08] <jrinco11> so i have an old acer travelmate 340, and it doesn't have an optical drive nor can it boot from cd (so no external cd option) -- so waht I did was put hte laptop hdd in a different laptop, and started the installation to the point where it copies the live cd to hdd and asks to restart to do installation
[02:08] <Redman276> yepper  been reading  their forums  for about  45 min
[02:08] <spackle> How does a PXE netboot install know what to use for initial repositories?
[02:08] <Redman276> no luck
[02:08] <Redman276> they  quote the  ubuntuforum fix about 75 times
[02:08] <jrinco11> then i swapped the hdd back into the travel mate, and i'm getting an xorg erro rwhen starting startx, "(ee) no deviced detected"
[02:08] <jrinco11> xorg.conf*
[02:08] <Redman276> ive  done that   but  still same error
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> I have an ati8500 here in one of these, didnt need to do anything special.
[02:09] <Redman276> hmmmm
[02:09] <Redman276> i tried to get  my  GL  going
[02:09] <jrinco11> is there a way i can edit the xorg.conf and get it to detect my display?  any idea what I need to do?
[02:09] <Redman276> my rigional problem was   pc freezing  when  either  screen saver  or   any  3d rendered  was   started
[02:09] <jrinco11> (or perhaps a different way to install w/no cd/usb support?)
[02:10] <stochastic_flux> jrincoll: this is most likely because the video card in the first laptop differs from that in the second you will need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to load the right driver
[02:10] <Redman276> so i did the  fix for that and had   like  " ok "  tabs with  diagonal  lines through it
[02:10] <Indigo423> stefg: ah ok then i can install some kernels like -server or -bigiron kernels.
[02:10] <stefg> exactly
[02:10] <Redman276> i followed the ati howto in the wikki and now  3/4 of  my  apps  died cause of this pai error
[02:10] <jrinco11> stochastic_flux:  do you know how i can go about getting the right driver?
[02:10] <Redman276> api^
[02:10] <ttyfscker> gnomefreak:: i thought that the kernel wouldnt boot in edgy?  works fine here
[02:11] <jackfrost> grrr....having a hell of a time with my 4306 broadcomm card
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Redman276: I used the ATI site and diddnt try the wiki
[02:11] <stochastic_flux> jrincoll:  do you know what kind of video card the laptop has?
[02:11] <regress> ah man
[02:11] <juanca7777_> anyone knows where i can find the 'pkginfo' and 'pkgtrans' packages, in order to use alien to convert a solaris .pkg to a .deb file?
[02:11] <Redman276> so i did the  libGL  fix  in the forum for this specific  error and its still happening
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> jackfrost: Broadcom are not very linux friendly, you'll end up using ndiswrapper
[02:12] <jrinco11> stochastic_flux:  mmm, no i don't
[02:12] <regress> if I moved a LVM disk to another computer without exporting the /etc/lvmconf, is my data hosed?
[02:12] <Redman276> ok ill go back to ATI and try again
[02:12] <jrinco11> lemme see if i can google it
[02:12] <stochastic_flux> what kind of laptop is it, make & model
[02:12] <spackle> My PXE install is throwing errors at the point where it picks package source - not sure how to proceed.
[02:12] <jrinco11> acer travelmate 340
[02:12] <jackfrost> Jack: I tried ndiswrapper, no luck. Now I've been trying Fw-cutter, I've gotten the farthest with this method
[02:12] <Indigo423> stefg: did you know some good urls, who i can find some technical specifications from the different kernels?
[02:12] <regress> where can
[02:12] <jackfrost> With FW-cutter I've at least got the light to come on in my laptop
[02:13] <regress> where can I talk with someone about lvm?
[02:13] <jackfrost> that's as close as I've got
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> jrinco11: WHat processor and how much memory in that lappy?  THose were pretty slow
[02:13] <advant> How do I need to isntall glib 2.12.0 so it replaces 2.10.3
[02:13] <redcard> Oh.. does anyone know a way to rip a DVD down to MPEG, for vcdimager?
[02:14] <jrinco11> jack_sparrow:  i believe it's a p2? 450mhz?
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> jrinco11:  how much ram..?
[02:14] <jackfrost> I kept getting bcmwl5 Failed errors
[02:14] <jrinco11> p3, 450mhz, 198mb ram i think
[02:14] <Guest136> hi
[02:15] <jackfrost> So now I've got the light to come on when I open the Network GUI, but I can't actually get it to work.
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> jrinco11: You may be disappointed with the performance of that unit and Ubuntu
[02:15] <skavenge> jackfrost: are you sure you didnt need bcmwl5a? did you check the ndiswrapper for insturctions? .. my bcm43xx based card is running ndiswrapper with the bcmwl5a
[02:15] <stefg> Indigo423: that's normally stated in synaptic, or whatever frontend to apt you use

[02:17] <stochastic_flux> jrincoll: i would suspect that you would have to find the line Driver "something" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf under the Device section and replace "something" with "i810"
[02:19] <abou> after downloading and install all  what I was told to in the restrictedformats files and  w32codecs I have some of the wmv file where I can only hear the sound, no image, any ideas?
[02:19] <skavenge> jackfrost: on the ndiswrapper homepage .. from what i see thats what you need, for a 4306 chipset you need 5l and 5la in the install dir along with the .sys but only 5la gets installed with ndiswrapper
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> abou: any errors when you did the section on w32codecs
[02:20] <Kirk> Hello

[02:22] <computer13137> I am a noob to Ubuntu, and I need a bit of a walkthrough, or someone to login to SSH and do something for me.  I have a WiFi card, with a Windows driver.  In FreeBSD, it was possible to compile it using NDISWrapper.  Is there an NDISWrapper for Ubuntu, and can anyone help me use it to compile a driver?  Thanks!
[02:22] <computer13137> If someone can help, PM me please.
[02:23] <skavenge> Chetic: its still installable under gnome and works fine
[02:23] <Chetic> yeah you're right
[02:23] <Chetic> doing so now
[02:23] <computer13137> brb
[02:23] <skavenge> it just installed the libs it needs, but yeah its going to be a bigger install because of it
[02:23] <Ubuntu-fr581> has someone installed xgl/compiz ?
[02:24] <Guest136> Can anyone help me out with the 3c59x network module and wake on lan?  I had it working in kernel 2.4 under Debian, but it doesn't work in Ubuntu.
[02:24] <abou> Jack_Sparrow, no
[02:24] <abou> Jack_Sparrow, no errors when installing the codecs
[02:24] <spackle> Guest136 - is it being recognized?
[02:24] <Guest136> spackle: yes, it works fine otherwise
[02:24] <spackle> Guest136 - if you do dmesg | more do you see it listed?
[02:24] <Redman276> well that didnt work
[02:25] <ballpointcarrot> Ubuntu-fr581: I have
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> abou:  what program ar eyou using to play what type of video files?
[02:25] <Guest136> spackle: yes, but i don't have the output here
[02:25] <spackle> Guest136 - Wake on LAN - that's more of a hardware issue isn't it?
[02:26] <spackle> Guest136 - is WOL enabled in the Bios?
[02:26] <Guest136> spackle: it is a 3com 905b network adapter.  well for wake on lan it has to be enabled in the bios as well as in a module option, but for kernel 2.6 it just doesn't work
[02:26] <abou> Jack_Sparrow, totem, file wmv (some are working, some used to work in previous installs, not now !) I must have missed something...
[02:26] <spackle> Guest136 - maybe just not in the kernel you are using?
[02:27] <Guest136> spackle: the hardware is set up correctly.  for Ubuntu i edited the /etc/modprobe.d/ files instead of the /etc/modutils/ files
[02:27] <Guest136> so i'm not sure what is the problem :(
[02:27] <arooni> what do i need to apt-get install to play back .mov files
[02:27] <spackle> Guest136 - can you tell if the module is loaded? (lsmod)
[02:28] <ChrisC_> Hello ... The software update app is crashing my system ... when I click on the linux-kernel item to see what the changes are, it hangs and then crashes.  Anyone else seeing this?
[02:28] <Guest136> spackle: yes it was loaded
[02:29] <spackle> Guest136 - I wonder if the 3com driver lacks support?
[02:29] <qkslvrwolf> how does one keep something in init.d from starting at startup?
[02:29] <test> hi is there anyway to change the mime icons in gnome?
[02:30] <jrinco11> jacksparrow:  i changed it to i810 and it still shows "no screens found" --- i think it may be that when i started the install on the other laptop, it detected the display at "PCI:1:5:0" and i'm assuming it's idfferent on this laptop
[02:30] <jrinco11> anyway to 'find' where the display is on this laptop?
[02:30] <Guest136> spackle: unless it dropped support from the kernel 2.4 -> 2.6 change, i dunno
[02:30] <bimberi> qkslvrwolf: sudo update-rc.d -f <whatever> remove
[02:31] <test> hi is there anyway to change the mime icons in gnome?
[02:31] <x_or> Does anyone here know how to completely remove and then reinstall postgresql 7.4 where configuration files are reinstalled?  Or, in which package those configuration files are stored?  Mine were deleted and I cannot restore them.
[02:31] <arooni> what do i need to apt-get install to play back .mov files
[02:31] <spackle> arooni - try videolan or xine?
[02:31] <qkslvrwolf> bimberi:  thanks
[02:31] <qkslvrwolf> lemme try it
[02:32] <qkslvrwolf> is it gonna remove the file?
[02:32] <arooni> spackle: whats is lighter weight?
[02:32] <spackle> arooni - videolan
[02:32] <bimberi> qkslvrwolf: no, the file will stay but links to it from, for example, /etc/rc2.d will be removed
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> jrinco11: I am thinking a copy of the CD on an extra partition, boot a grub floppy that can fire off the livecd running off the drive. But I have never heard of anyone doing it.
[02:32] <spackle> arooni - I don't know if it has the right codecs for a Mov though.
[02:32] <FunkyDiscoMan> can anybody help me with a litlle gst-launch prob, am inexperienced with gstreamer pipelines
[02:33] <qkslvrwolf> perfect.  :-)
[02:33] <qkslvrwolf> thanks!
[02:33] <spackle> anybody familiar with PXE install process?
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> jrinco11: Let me look at the livecd for a sec..
[02:33] <jrinco11> yah, i dont' have any floppy/cd/usb support upon boot
[02:34] <qkslvrwolf> so whats rc stand for?
[02:34] <jrinco11> this travel mate uses some proprietary cd drive
[02:34] <qkslvrwolf> and what is it doing?  Is that the startup scripts, more or less?
[02:34] <jrinco11> so i can only use what's on the hdd (which is why i tried to load the install on the hdd)
[02:36] <test> hi is there anyway to change the mime icons in gnome?
[02:37] <Darkprince> does anybody know about this?
[02:37] <Darkprince> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=143334&page=1
[02:37] <bimberi> qkslvrwolf: yes, each runlevel has a directory under /etc with symlinks to the scripts to start (or stop) when that booting to that runlevel
[02:38] <bimberi> qkslvrwolf: nfi what rc stands for though :)
[02:38] <KatteKrab> http://waraku.blogspot.com/2006/06/ubuntu-test.html
[02:38] <qkslvrwolf> bimberi: sweetness.  :-)  Thanks!  I got my new thing learned for the day. :-)
[02:38] <Darkprince> apparently there is a file /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat  that contains the root password in plain text (with ubuntu)
[02:39] <Darkprince> though, i can't find it on my system
[02:39] <bimberi> Darkprince: yes, that's a bug with the Breezy CD
[02:39] <jrib> test: system > preferences > themes, you can grab more themes at gnome-look.org
[02:40] <bimberi> Darkprince: fixed if a Breezy install has been kept up to date.  Not an issue in dapper afaik
[02:40] <Darkprince> cool
[02:40] <FunkyDiscoMan> anyone good with gstreamer pipelines?
[02:41] <redcard> Darkprince: It's not in dapper
[02:41] <redcard> I just installed ubuntu on friday :)
[02:41] <Darkprince> how do you guys keep responding to me in red?

[02:42] <warlocky-> does IE work on ubuntu? :D
[02:43] <AOGuy1989> no
[02:43] <Darkprince> warlocky-, dunno, i use firefox even in windows
[02:43] <Flannel> warlocky-: in wine, yeah.
[02:43] <Solarion> warlocky-: yes
[02:43] <Solarion> www.codeweavers.com
[02:43] <Solarion> USD30, and you can get MS Office working too
[02:43] <Darkprince> warlocky-, firefox > IE
[02:43] <Solarion> despite Microsoft's best efforts to the contrary
[02:43] <warlocky-> Aye I know, but we're testing a design
[02:43] <Solarion> otherwise, www.vmware.com
[02:43] <Solarion> requires valid Windows license, though.
[02:44] <AOGuy1989> hmm
[02:44] <Solarion> You can buy Workstation for a few hundred (or about $100 academic) or you can use the free Server
[02:44] <Solarion> there is also Xen, if you have hypervisor capability in your cpu.
[02:45] <Solarion> [otherwise, you have to somehow find a Xen-enabled Windows version, which isn't legal] 
[02:45] <Flannel> warlocky-: http://browsers.evolt.org/  People have gotten those browsers to work in wine
[02:45] <Solarion> You also have Bochs (very very slow, but free) and also Win4Lin.
[02:45] <warlocky-> ah np guys
[02:45] <warlocky-> its sorted out
[02:45] <warlocky-> big thanks

[02:48] <rebelfallen> How can I completely remove KDE? I want to keep gnome instead
[02:48] <LjL> rebelfallen: you can't with a single command, unless you installed it with aptitude. however, if you remove "kdelibs4c2a", you'll remove most of it
[02:48] <Nekow42> rebelfallen: Be careful, a lot of packages depend on the KDE libs...
[02:48] <theBishop> Beagle has recently stopped working for me...
[02:49] <Flannel> rebelfallen: you can use debfoster or something like it
[02:49] <AOGuy1989> thanks
[02:49] <AOGuy1989> =)
[02:49] <LjL> rebelfallen: removing libqt3-mt will possibly remove even more, but could remove stuff that you wanted to keep as well, since it takes away everythign that uses Qt
[02:49] <rebelfallen> wow okay thanks
[02:49] <kptZbik> 'lo!
[02:49] <Shak-> how is file sharing over a network accomplished in ubuntu?

[02:51] <rebelfallen> thank you again folks, you're great as always
[02:51] <kptZbik> I have big problems with cd burning under Ubuntu - there are extremely long pauses (2 hrs) between starting the burning and ejecting the CD, with lots of hdc: lost interrupt in kernel log
[02:52] <LjL> kokak: "sudo aptitude anjuta glade"
[02:52] <theBishop> kokak, learning programming isn't going to start with Glade
[02:52] <LjL> kokak: "sudo aptitude install anjuta glade"
[02:52] <LjL> kokak: (ignore the first message)
[02:52] <kptZbik> did anyone encounter something like this?
[02:52] <kokak> theBishop, where?
[02:52] <theBishop> kokak, pick a language (C for example) and learn it.  You won't be starting with GUI applications
[02:53] <kokak> LjL, how about the libraries?
[02:53] <LjL> kokak: i'm not sure what libraries you're thinking about
[02:53] <jrinco11> jack_sparrow:  so i figured the video card it uses is  	
[02:53] <jrinco11> Trident 9525 - 128 bit, 2.5MB SDRAM, AGP
[02:53] <kokak> theBishop, i know C in windows based. i
[02:53] <jrinco11> and i tried to copy hte settings from http://www.theiling.de/acer.html
[02:53] <kokak> i'd like to learn it in linux based.
[02:53] <Nekow42> kokak: C is stadard, it's pretty much the same...
[02:53] <theBishop> you've already written Win32 applications?
[02:54] <jrinco11> and i still get "data imcomplete in file /xorg.conf -- undefined device "ATI radeon 340agp" reference bvy screen "default screen".
[02:54] <kokak> LjL, i tried installing glade and anjuta in the reporitories but i could not compile? what do you think i need.
[02:54] <theBishop> kokak, GCC
[02:54] <LjL> kokak: build-essential
[02:54] <theBishop> yep
[02:54] <LjL> !b-e > kokak
[02:55] <theBishop> that's it
[02:55] <kokak> LjL, ic.
[02:56] <kokak> so, after i install glade and anjuta what do i do? just type build-essentials?
[02:56] <ballpointcarrot> kokak: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:56] <Darkprince> i got xine to play MPEG movies, but now i'm getting an error about Audio codecs and i get no sound. where can i find the codecs i need?
[02:56] <Nekow42> Darkprince: Easy ubuntu?
[02:56] <Darkprince> ?
[02:56] <kokak> ic. ok. thanks guys.
[02:56] <kokak> i try it.
[02:57] <Nekow42> Darkprince: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[02:57] <LjL> kokak, when we say you need "x" or "y", we usually mean a package. you can install packages in various ways
[02:57] <LjL> !tell kokak about packages
[02:57] <Darkprince> Nekow42, i'll give it a shot =)
[02:57] <kptZbik> the CDs burn fine under windows and Gentoo

[02:58] <Nekow42> Darkprince: This page of easyubuntu should do everything you need: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/images/screenshot1.png
[02:58] <andy-> is there a gaming server browser software of any kind?
[02:58] <theBishop> Is ANYONE using Beagle?
[02:58] <andy-> like 'The All Seeing Eye'
[02:58] <redcard> theBishop: I have it up there..
[02:58] <Darkprince> Nekow42, thanks
[02:58] <redcard> theBishop: What's up?
[02:58] <theBishop> redcard, Beagle used to work for me, recently it stopped working.

[03:06] <Kyral> for Kopete (and just about every other core KDE Network program)
[03:06] <meatballhat> is that one of the "advanced" installable packages?
[03:07] <Kyral> "advanced"
[03:07] <DBO> hey crimsun, I made the mistake a ways back of compiling my own lib and sticking it in /opt/, then copying the .la.  I have since fixed the obviously wrong .la, and fixed any bad references in /usr/lib/pkg-config, as well as fixed my idiocy on the matter, but I cant get libtool to stop looking in /opt/ for that library...
[03:07] <bruenig> "advanced"?
[03:07] <Kyral> WTF is this "advanced"
[03:07] <meatballhat> heck... I dunno
[03:07] <DBO> crimsun, you have any idea what I can do?
[03:07] <Kyral> A package is a package is a package
[03:07] <redcard> meatballhat: Do you mean a meta-package?
[03:07] <PreZ> tat
[03:07] <PreZ> yay even
[03:07] <Kyral> meta-packages
[03:07] <PreZ> I got my EVDO card working
[03:07] <bruenig> from advanced, i draw two possible conclusions, 1. it is in the extra repos 2. It is hard to use 3. Meta
[03:07] <Kyral> They are handled so badly in Debian...and as a side affect, ubuntu
[03:07] <DBO> crimsun, btw, the reason I wanted the .la is because the -dev package didnt have one
[03:07] <bruenig> hahi cant count
[03:08] <meatballhat> I go to "Applications" --> Add/Remove and then select the "Advanced" button and I get a slew of fancier packages
[03:08] <Kyral> ....
[03:08] <Kyral> Thats because GUIs suck :D
[03:08] <meatballhat> I don't know no Linux... sorry
[03:08] <bruenig> meatballhat, oh never actually used that
[03:08] <Kyral> !apt-get
[03:08] <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)
[03:08] <meatballhat> wonderful!
[03:08] <Darkprince> anybody know if there is a way to get a Netgear wireless adapter to work in linux?
[03:09] <Kyral> Even better
[03:09] <Kyral> lemme dig up a link for a second...
[03:09] <crimsun> DBO: (right, -devs shouldn't be shipping .las anymore)  What -dev hasn't been recompiled against the reworked lib?
[03:09] <Kyral> Goddamn even a year after I wrote this thing people still post thanking me
[03:09] <bruenig> meatballhat, advanced is the synaptic package manager,
[03:09] <carthik> Can someone explain the best way to use gpg with more than one email address?
[03:09] <Nekow42> Darkprince: Depends on the model
[03:09] <Kyral> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=73885
[03:09] <Kyral> Terminal For Beginners
[03:09] <meatballhat> yes yes!  synaptic! I'm actually learning!
[03:09] <crimsun> carthik: more context?
[03:09] <Kyral> Read, understand, and harness the TRUE power of Unix
[03:10] <Nekow42> Darkprince: Google for the model number and add the word "Linux"
[03:10] <Darkprince> i used to run FC4 and i couldn't even get the CD to install
[03:10] <pepsi> loonax
[03:10] <DBO> crimsun, I needed the .la to try out gimmie, but this was for libXrender
[03:10] <Bonez_> wtf yellowpages.com.au
[03:10] <bruenig> meatballhat, synaptic is a graphical representation of apt-get
[03:10] <meatballhat> gotcha
[03:10] <Kyral> it also sucks...
[03:10] <bruenig> kyral, damn righ
[03:10] <bruenig> t*
[03:10] <Kyral> I have yet to see a decent GUI package manager
[03:11] <DBO> crimsun, like I said, I have removed the offending .la, but the memory of the self-compiled libXrender remains...
[03:11] <Nekow42> Darkprince: What exactly IS the model #?
[03:11] <Darkprince> Nekow42, WG111T
[03:11] <PreZ> Kyral: I still get the occasional email about a response to the columbine shootings I posted on my website (goth.net) years ago (its still on the website, though has not been linked from the main page for a good 8 years or so)
[03:11] <Kyral> ....
[03:11] <crimsun> DBO: so what's pulling in the .la reference? (some lib that was built against the libxrender-dev that still contained the .la)
[03:11] <meatballhat> I just started learning Linux command shell last week, so... :-(   Thanks all for your help - I'm off to learn AptGet!
[03:11] <Kyral> WTF?
[03:11] <Kyral> meatballhat: read the topic I pasted
[03:11] <carthik> crimsun: I have a primary as well as a secondary email address. I want to use gpg with both addresses. Should I use "adduid" "addkey" or "genkey" to use both emails - what is "right" way for one person to manage more than one email address? I want to be able to, revoke/cancel email addresses if I stop using them later (like my university email address)
[03:11] <meatballhat> I'm already there :-) thanks much!
[03:11] <Kyral> PreZ: I'm gonna assume a mischan?
[03:12] <Bonez_> !repeat
[03:12] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:12] <crimsun> DBO: meaning you need to recompile all debs that built against the libxrender-dev that contained the .la
[03:12] <Nekow42> Darkprince: look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=101653 it might help
[03:12] <DBO> crimsun, oh... my... darnit...
[03:12] <gnomefreak> DBO: told you a long night of screwing around :(
[03:12] <PreZ> Kyral: no - you were talking about getting responses to things you'd posted a long time ago
[03:12] <crimsun> carthik: adduid
[03:12] <PreZ> I was telling you its not THAT uncommon ;)
[03:12] <jersymike> is ne one here that could help me with a persistiant image on knoppix? it keeps going to 96% and stoping
[03:12] <Kyral> ...and I thought I made leaps of logic....
[03:12] <DBO> crimsun, will sudo apt-get install --reinstall package be enough for most of those?
[03:12] <crimsun> Kyral: shush you arch user :-P
[03:12] <bruenig> !running a country, just like the republicans.
[03:13] <ubotu> I know nothing about running a country, just like the republicans. - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:13] <Kyral> ....wtf is THAT supposed to mean
[03:13] <Shak-> I just set up Samba and shared a folder, but opening the network resource with something like \\192.168.1.101 on a windows box prompts a user/pass?
[03:13] <Kyral> I'm also still an Ubuntu Member and Maintainer
[03:13] <Kyral> jeez

[03:13] <ubotu> I know nothing about beer - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:13] <crimsun> Kyral: it's obviously a joke
[03:13] <carthik> crimsun, http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual.html#AEN305 says a UID cannot be revoked (and elsewhere that uids cannot be deleted)?
[03:13] <grout> im running dapper on a core duo how can i tell if both cores are being utilized?
[03:13] <PreZ> grout: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[03:13] <crimsun> grout: are you using the -686 flavour?
[03:13] <Kyral> crimsun: Anyone can still you I suck at realizing sarcasm :P
[03:13] <PreZ> if you see 2 CPUs, its using them
[03:14] <grout> no im using the default 386
[03:14] <crimsun> grout: you'll need to use the -686 flavour
[03:14] <students> daw beh
[03:14] <PreZ> the 686-smp one to be specific
[03:14] <grout> just sudo apt-get instal 686
[03:14] <crimsun> grout: sudo apt-get install linux-686
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> I thought 386 also did dual core cpu's
[03:15] <gnomefreak> Jack_Sparrow: no smp or 686
[03:15] <Omeganon> Hi! Where does CD/DVD creator store it's files before burn?
[03:15] <Shak-> anyone know why? windows is prompting a user/pass for a public samba share
[03:15] <students> jojo/join
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Id swear I saw it report two cpus
[03:15] <Bonez_> grout: if I am using a single AMD64 3200+ would I be better off with i686 also?
[03:15] <gnomefreak> 386 will only run up to a certain mhz iirc
[03:15] <Omeganon> I've been unable to find or locate them
[03:15] <crimsun> Bonez_: if you want to use Flash and w32codecs, yes.
[03:15] <crimsun> Bonez_: or -k7
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Omeganon: isnt that a windows program?
[03:15] <Bonez_> crimsun: awesome, installing now...85mb :)
[03:15] <olrrai> hi
[03:16] <Bonez_> olrrai: hi
[03:16] <GUARDiAN|nb> hi
[03:16] <Bonez_> crimsun: what's the diff between k7 and i686?
[03:16] <students> hi
[03:16] <crimsun> carthik: you can always delete uids
[03:16] <Omeganon> Jack Sparrow: Um. no ;) It's standard in Ubuntu ;)
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> gnomefreak: what is the ghz limit on 396?
[03:16] <jersymike> is ne one here that could help me with a persistiant image on knoppix? it keeps going to 96% and stoping
[03:16] <PreZ> Bonez: athlon optimizations
[03:16] <carthik> Shak- so have you set up a guest account on your samba server? there are lots of guides on how to do that - the password request is samba asking you to login - you can search for "setup samba without password" though that seems less secure.
[03:16] <PreZ> (3dnow and such)
[03:16] <Bonez_> crimsun: uname -a currently shows i686, but when i did apt-get install linux-686 it is downloading 85mb of packages...
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Omeganon: I use k3b.. sorry I dont know
[03:17] <crimsun> carthik: for example, my primary key has 6 e-mail addresses associated
[03:17] <GUARDiAN|nb> i just installed some fonts which are usable in every app except openoffice... they are not even listed there... is this a known problem, or did i do something wrong?
[03:17] <Shak-> carthik: well im creating a public directory which im not worried about keeping secure
[03:17] <crimsun> Bonez_: what does ``uname -r'' return?
[03:18] <carthik> crimsun, the manual says that if I delete them, they won't effectively get deleted with the folks that already have it, since the changes are merged into what they already have (http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual.html#AEN282 5th paragraph)
[03:18] <PreZ> Bonez: uname -a will show something like this:  Linux temple 2.6.15-26-k7 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jul 7 20:10:15 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux     -- but you'll note my kernel is '-k7', but my arch is 'i686'
[03:18] <Bonez_> crimsun: well it used to return this: Linux bonezpc 2.6.15-25-386 #1 PREEMPT Wed Jun 14 11:25:49 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:18] <crimsun> Bonez_: that's why; you're using the -386 flavour not the -686 flavour
[03:18] <PreZ> Bonez: then you're using the 386 kernel
[03:18] <Bonez_> crimsun: but after installing linux-686 it now shows 2.6.15-25-386
[03:18] <olrrai> I just installed ubuntu and mount /var on /dev/sda9
[03:18] <olrrai> then i run df /dev/sda9: /dev/sda9             57005248    362764  53746772   1% /var
[03:18] <PreZ> right
[03:18] <IseeIsee> this command is valid ?   sudo apt-get install sun-java5-*
[03:19] <olrrai> 57005248-365172=56640076        not 53744364!!
[03:19] <carthik> crimsun, alright, if adduid works for you, it works for me :) thanks.
[03:19] <crimsun> carthik: that's correct due to syncing across keyservers. You'd have to ask everyone who imported your key to delete the uid
[03:19] <Shak-> carthik: from what I see theres meant to be a "security" parameter in the conf file under global, but I dont see it?
[03:19] <grout> what command will show me the kernel im using?
[03:19] <crimsun> grout: uname -r
[03:19] <carthik> crimsun, cool - will take that path
[03:19] <Bonez_> crimsun: so after installing linux-686 is it safe to reboot (i'm currently not at home, so if something breaks whilst booting i can't fix it remotely)
[03:19] <Shak-> carthik: nevermind, I found it :)
[03:19] <wachunei> HELP, i guess i need some intel drivers :S
[03:19] <crimsun> Bonez_: if you're paranoid, wait til you're physically present.
[03:20] <IseeIsee> is this command is valid ?   sudo apt-get install sun-java5-*
[03:20] <Bonez_> crimsun: i'm not paranoid, but does apt-get do everything i need? do i need to tell grub about a new kernel or anything?
[03:20] <crimsun> IseeIsee: I'd be more specific.
[03:20] <carthik> Shak-, great
[03:20] <wachunei> help please guys+
[03:20] <crimsun> Bonez_: it handles things for you, but again, paranoia is your call.
[03:20] <Shak-> carthik: ok im able to open a connection now, but I dont see my shares?
[03:20] <grout> since i've downloaded the 686 kernel is shows the 285 kernels and 686 kernels in the bootloader, anyway to remove the 386 options?
[03:20] <IseeIsee> crimsun: it says to me "E: couldn't find package sun-java5*"
[03:20] <Bonez_> crimsun: thanks for your help. i'll take the risk and give her a reboot ;) bbs
[03:21] <crimsun> IseeIsee: do you write Java programs?
[03:21] <carthik> Shak- there are so many variable in the config file etc that I am not sure I can help you
[03:21] <Shak-> ok, i'll look through it
[03:21] <IseeIsee> crimsun: trying to do on Ubuntu/linux
[03:21] <crimsun> IseeIsee: then you just need ``sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk sun-java5-plugin''
[03:21] <IseeIsee> fine but this command should work ?
[03:21] <olrrai> i have 3 gigas unusen in /dev/sda9, but cant correct it! can help me?

[03:25] <Bonez> What does SMP PREEMPT mean?
[03:25] <crimsun> IseeIsee: if you don't have it elsewhere, yes.
[03:25] <barneyR> anyone happen to know if a USB external modem works with 6.06? it's a real hardware modem
[03:25] <crimsun> Bonez: it means it's a kernel compiled with the SMP and PREEMPT options enabled
[03:25] <Bonez> barneyR: absolutely. hardware modems work with everything :)
[03:25] <Bonez> ok cool
[03:25] <barneyR> Bonez, even USB?
[03:26] <IseeIsee> crimsun: elsewhere you mean somewhere else in the sources.list or in the same command ?
[03:26] <crimsun> IseeIsee: same line
[03:26] <Bonez> barneyR: I can't see why not. I use a USB multifunction printer/scanner/coppier, a digital cam, a webcam, other stuff all natively, without having to lift a finger
[03:27] <barneyR> ok thanks, I don't have the modem to test yet, someone is bringing it over tomorrow, not sure if it was worth the trouble
[03:27] <IseeIsee> what is the difference between ctrl-z & ctrl-c on terminal ?
[03:27] <Bonez> barneyR: google scanmodem and install that, that should detect the modem and tell you what drivers to install
[03:27] <barneyR> thanks bonez
[03:27] <Flannel> IseeIsee: one stops, on breaks.  ^C stops it, ^Z just pauses

[03:27] <Bonez> np
[03:27] <DBO> crimsun, can I /msg you?
[03:27] <IseeIsee> Flannel, how can I resume it ?
[03:28] <Ropechoborra> Hi.. I got like 3 kernel images installed... which should i uninstall and wich not??
[03:28] <carthik> hmm, Shak- after you make changes to the samba conf, restart the samba server??
[03:28] <Flannel> IseeIsee: after ^Z?  type "jobs" you'll get a list of jobs and their numbers, then %#, where # is the number ($1 for instance)
[03:28] <Shak-> carthik: o_O how do I restart teh service?
[03:29] <Bonez> I have an irritating permissions problem, i have a fat32 partition mounted and in the console I can read/write to it fine, but under nautilus it shows as read only... anyone got some light they can shed on this?
[03:29] <Krhis> Ropechoborra, unlike Windows it is not required to uninstall them.
[03:29] <Krhis> Ropechoborra, is there a reasion why you want too?
[03:29] <Bonez> Shak-: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[03:29] <carthik> Shak- look in /etc/init.d/ there should be samba or something similar, if yes, then do a /etc/init.d/samba(replace with the right name here) restart
[03:29] <Ropechoborra> When i boot i got like 6 slots just for ubuntu

[03:29] <Ropechoborra> =S
[03:30] <Ropechoborra> Krhis When i boot i got like 6 slots just for ubuntu
[03:30] <Krhis> Ropechoborra, I'd suggest editing /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:30] <Ropechoborra> Thats why =/
[03:30] <Ropechoborra> Thanks
[03:30] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: You have two per kernel (regular, and rescue mode)
[03:30] <IseeIsee> are terminal commands same across all linux distros: ?
[03:30] <Flannel> IseeIsee: they're bash commands, so theyre the sameacross any bash terminal, yes.
[03:31] <Ropechoborra> How do i know wich kernel fits bets my needs??
[03:31] <Flannel> IseeIsee: of course, there are other terminals
[03:31] <IseeIsee> sudo apt-get is a bash command ?
[03:31] <Krhis> Flannel: He/she is asking how to remove them, not why they are there.
[03:31] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: they're probably all the same kernel, just different versions (upgraded), so, the most recent is the one to keep.
[03:31] <Bonez> IseeIsee: no it's a debian/ubuntu app
[03:31] <IseeIsee> oh
[03:31] <wachunei> IseeIsee: even in mac os x
[03:31] <skavenge> apt-get is
[03:31] <Flannel> sudo is as well
[03:31] <skavenge> alot of commands are universal though
[03:31] <DBO> crimsun, nevermind, thank you for your help, I fixed it
[03:32] <wachunei> IseeIsee: the commands like mv sudo sp su are all the same in an unix system
[03:32] <Krhis> Flannel: no, they are old kernels.
[03:32] <wachunei> *cp
[03:32] <Flannel> Krhis: What are you talking about?
[03:32] <Ropechoborra> Flannel but.. how do i know if im chooseing the most recent in the grub?
[03:33] <Krhis> I've been heling Ropechoborra for the past fue minutes.
[03:33] <wachunei> Ropechoborra, the top one is the recent
[03:33] <Shak-> carthik: still getting that error :(
[03:33] <Ropechoborra> Ty ! =)
[03:33] <Bonez> is there an easy way to upgrade my kernel using apt-get ?
[03:33] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: when ubuntu upgrades, it adds the most recent kernel to the top of the list.  If you remove the older ones with apt (or any frontend) the others will go away
[03:33] <Bonez> or do I have to compile my own
[03:34] <Ropechoborra> So.. i just delete them from grub.. theres no need to uninstall them? Dont use much space?
[03:34] <carthik> Shak- :( sorry dude... can't really help  much
[03:34] <Bonez> Ropechoborra: i just did the same as you, installed linux-686 and edited the menu.lst file and commented out the i386 kernels... i would like to know the answer to this too
[03:34] <dasd> hello...hows the nubuntu project ?
[03:34] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: uninstall them, and they will be removed from grub
[03:35] <wachunei> Who has an intel video card here?
[03:35] <Bonez> Flannel: what is the easiest way to uninstall them?
[03:35] <skavenge> me
[03:35] <Flannel> Bonez: apt
[03:35] <carthik> Ropechoborra, you can search for linux-image and uninstall all except the one kernel you are currently using - be careful not to delete the one you are using presently ($uname -r will tell you what you are using now)
[03:35] <Flannel> Bonez: or, synaptic, if youre using a GUI
[03:35] <Ropechoborra> Flannel Ok.. in Synaptic are the "linux-images" ??
[03:35] <wachunei> skavenge: which driveers did you use?
[03:35] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: right
[03:35] <Fjodor> wachunei: Have one on my laptop
[03:35] <Bonez> carthik: great thanks for the extra info
[03:36] <Ropechoborra>  ($uname -r <--- Didnt get that
[03:36] <skavenge> wachunei: i810
[03:36] <Ropechoborra> Like $username???
[03:36] <grout> Bonex: i need to do the same thing as you. how do you uninstall the extra kernels?
[03:36] <wachunei> Fjodor: i need the drivers, and how to get "openGL" or something like that
[03:36] <wachunei> skavenge: where did you get them?
[03:36] <carthik> "uname -r" without the quote is the command to check which kernel you are using currently, Ropechoborra
[03:36] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: no, type that at a terminal, and you'll get the kernel you're currently using
[03:36] <Bonez> grout: sudo apt-cache search linux-image - then remove the ones you don't need
[03:36] <CyDrive> Can someone help me i want to get the denetwor but im not sure wich pacage to use or how to install or anything
[03:36] <Fjodor> wachunei: Should be installed by default
[03:36] <CyDrive> Kdenetwork*
[03:36] <skavenge> wachunei: autodetected and ubuntu installed it
[03:36] <Bonez> hmm i have k7 kernels installed as well, strange
[03:36] <carthik> CyDrive, what is denetwor?
[03:36] <olrrai> is it an error (df /dev/sda9)?: /dev/sda9             57005248    362764  53746772   1% /var
[03:37] <Flannel> Bonez: you've got an AMD?
[03:37] <Fjodor> wachunei: Trying out xgl or something?
[03:37] <olrrai> 3G unused?
[03:37] <Ropechoborra> Thank you all so much ! =)
[03:37] <wachunei> Fjodor, skavenge: and how do i install opengl?
[03:37] <Bonez> Flannel: yes
[03:37] <skavenge> wachunei: worked for me out of the box as well
[03:37] <Bonez> Flannel: but i am using the i686 kernel
[03:37] <wachunei> Fjodor: yup, i have installed XGL, but ive removed it
[03:37] <CyDrive> Can someone help me i want to get the kdenetwor but im not sure wich package to use or how to install or anything
[03:37] <grout> Bonez: i do to
[03:37] <Fjodor> wachunei: Ok. Come on over to #ubuntu-xgl
[03:38] <grout> Bonez: where do you go just to comment them out?
[03:38] <Ropechoborra> how do i know wich kernel is bets for my pc ??
[03:38] <Ropechoborra> For ex.
[03:38] <Ropechoborra> k7 is for AMD.. an those
[03:38] <Bonez> grout: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:38] <Bonez> Flannel: which kernel would you recommend I run on an AMD64 3200+ ?
[03:39] <grout> Bonez: my /boot dir is empty
[03:39] <Bonez> grout: hmmmm.... can't help with that one.. sounds like something is broked
[03:39] <plouj> if I want to download an amd64 live cd, which file/folder should I choose here: ftp://ftp.cs.mun.ca/pub/mirror/ubuntu-releases/6 - I don't see where it says live
[03:39] <Bonez> plouj: just grab the first install cd/iso - with dapper the installer cd is also a livecd
[03:39] <Flannel> Bonez: well, k7 is for AMD, er, unless the 64bits are k8.  The descriptions of the kernels give you a good idea of what they're for
[03:40] <Flannel> plouj: desktop CD is the liveCD
[03:40] <Bonez> Flannel: ok ill do a bit of googling, cheers
[03:40] <tamale> how can I make a mount point to the root of a windows share?  ie, the other computers name is  "foo"  but I don't want a mount to "foo/desktop", i literally want a mount to "foo"  ?
[03:40] <plouj> oh, I have dapper beta 6.06, that's also an installer/live cd CD?
[03:40] <CyDrive> Can anyone help me get the KDEnetwork installed on my machine im not eve sure where to start or wich versiond to download
[03:40] <grout> anyone know why they /boot/ directory would be empty?
[03:41] <plouj> grout: because it isn't mounted, possibly
[03:41] <Ropechoborra> Flannel and for a Celeron 2.0 wich kernel would u recommend ?
[03:41] <Kyral> Celeron 2.0
[03:41] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: celerons are 686
[03:41] <Kyral> wtf is that?
[03:41] <students> hello
[03:42] <Kyral> There is no such thing as a "Celeron 2.0"
[03:42] <skavenge> 2 ghz im guessing
[03:42] <Ropechoborra> Flannel and why do i got 386 installed ?
[03:42] <ryanakca> if I've run: dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207, do I run: dd if=/dev/one of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207   to create more swap?
[03:42] <skavenge> who knows
[03:42] <Ropechoborra> skavenge yeap that
[03:42] <Ropechoborra> :P
[03:42] <Ropechoborra> x)
[03:42] <Ropechoborra> Celeron 2GHZ
[03:43] <Kyral> Ropechoborra: because there isn't enough space on the install CD to putt every kernel so they put the lowest common denominator (386) on it
[03:43] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: 386 is generic, 386 works on 686, 686 doesn't on 386.
[03:43] <Kyral> If you want a 686 optimized Distro, go for Arch :P
[03:43] <computer13137> What command do I run to refresh the "locate" database?
[03:43] <FunnyLookinHat> or gentoo
[03:43] <Ropechoborra> Flannel so wich one should i install?
[03:43] <FunnyLookinHat> computer13137, sudo updatedb
[03:43] <skavenge> computer13137: updatedb
[03:44] <Kyral> or sudo locate -u /
[03:44] <computer13137> OK thanks
[03:44] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: install linux-image-686, it'll keep you updated on the 686 kernels
[03:45] <Ropechoborra> Thanks
[03:47] <jared_> Hey, i'm just getting used to linux and I have a creative instant webcam and need to stream my cam to the net. I've tried using camserv, but can't connect to the cam...any ideas?
[03:48] <grout> do they have a dapper that will install the 686 kernel instead of the 386?
[03:48] <Kyral> No
[03:48] <tamale> how can I make a mount point to the root of a windows share?  ie, the other computers name is  "foo"  but I don't want a mount to "foo/desktop", i literally want a mount to "foo"  ?
[03:48] <Kyral> and Edgy won't either
[03:48] <Kyral> so stop asking :P
[03:48] <sharms> grout: apt-get install linux-686
[03:48] <CyDrive> can someone help when i try to install kopete and i do ./configure i get this error configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[03:49] <Kyral> !compile
[03:49] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:49] <ryanakca> if I've run: dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207, do I run: dd if=/dev/one of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207   to create more swap?
[03:49] <ryanakca> Kyral: ooooh... bofh!
[03:49] <ryanakca> @bofh
[03:49] <skavenge> that would be the windows way, 'we refuse to support old machines' .. give linux some credit you can run it on the POS collecting dust in your closet ;)
[03:49] <james296_> how can I prevent my logon screen from being displayed offscreen?
[03:49] <lg8> dunno
[03:49] <Ropechoborra> skavenge about that.. is there an ubuntu version to run with 64MB of ram??
[03:50] <Kyral> the LFS guys have claimed that they have gotten a webserver, Apache and all, in 8 MB (Thats Apache, AND the Linux system)
[03:50] <jared_> has anyone ever used a creative instant in ubuntu? I need to stream the cam onto the web
[03:50] <Kyral> Damn Small Linux specializes in low power systems
[03:50] <Bonez> I have an irritating permissions problem, i have a fat32 partition mounted and in the console I can read/write to it fine, but under nautilus it shows as read only... anyone got some light they can shed on this?
[03:50] <Kyral> Very good
[03:50] <jared_> and I have NO idea what to do
[03:50] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: get the alternate install CD, install just the server (type "server" at the first screen), then install some other WMs (*box, etc)
[03:50] <Kyral> because Nautilus is crap on a stick?
[03:50] <ttyfscker> does anybody know why the boot up splash looks all funky on edgy?  what do i need to do to get my old spash back?
[03:50] <Kyral> Thunar FTW :P
[03:50] <Bonez> Kyral: yeah it is, :) is there an alternative I can use?
[03:50] <sharms> jared_: you might want to google it, doesnt look like many people have used that camera here
[03:51] <Flannel> ttyfscker: #ubuntu+1 for edgy stuff
[03:51] <wachunei> ttyfscker: install dapper xD
[03:51] <fivre> arrgh
[03:51] <sharms> ttyfscker: the edgy screen is made to look like a TV testing screen
[03:51] <sharms> ttyfscker: normal users should NOT run it
[03:51] <james296_> so can anyone help me with the resolution of the logon screen??
[03:51] <fivre> My mouse customization stopped working
[03:51] <ttyfscker> sharms:: im not a normal user ;)
[03:51] <Kyral> or Konq :D
[03:51] <fivre> WHY MOUSE WHY?
[03:51] <sharms> ttyfscker: if you can't change the bootsplash, then yes, you probably need dapper.
[03:51] <Kyral> Because you touch yourself at night *DUCK!*
[03:51] <ttyfscker> sharms:: i know what im doing for the most part
[03:51] <Kyral> Okay...I should leave before I get worse
[03:52] <ttyfscker> sharms:: i can change the bootspash but i thought there might be a deb package i could use to do it
[03:52] <Kyral> Sorry for my behavior
[03:52] <sharms> !tell james296_ about resolution
[03:52] <james296_> I need help :-(
[03:52] <sharms> read the pm james
[03:52] <ryanakca> if I've run: dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207, do I run: dd if=/dev/one of=swapfile2 bs=1024 count=132207   to create more swap?
[03:52] <ttyfscker> sharms::  i was just basically wondering if all those funky colors were what it was suppose to look like.. im already using it.. and i knew all the testing stuff beforehand..
[03:53] <Kyral> ryanakca: there IS no /dev/one
[03:53] <sharms> yeah it is just to give you that testing look and feel
[03:53] <ryanakca> Kyral: *cough* *cough*... it works... Spec helped me out... blame him :)
[03:53] <Kyral> /dev/zero is just an endless stream of zeros
[03:54] <Kyral> and why do it that way
[03:54] <CyDrive> can someone help when i try to install kopete and i do ./configure i get this error configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[03:54] <Kyral> just make a normal swap partition anyway
[03:54] <ryanakca> Kyral: and resize stuff... ick :)
[03:54] <Kyral> CyDrive I TOLD you to install kdenetwork
[03:54] <sharms> CyDrive: kyral already answered you
[03:54] <sharms> CyDrive: read your pms from ubotu
[03:54] <Kyral> sudo apt-get install kdenetwork
[03:54] <skavenge> CyDrive: first of all kopete is in the repositories so you dont need to compile it, and if you still want to you need to install build-essential
[03:55] <CyDrive> oooh sorry i didnt see
[03:55] <Kyral> or sudo apt-get install kopete
[03:55] <Kyral> (twitch)
[03:55] <sharms> !tell cydrive about compile
[03:55] <Kyral> okay Kyral go take shower now
[03:56] <prophet> sup peoples
[03:56] <Nekow42> Ahoy
[03:56] <Bonez> is there a good alternative to nautilus in gnome?
[03:56] <prophet> im here for another session of learning :)
[03:56] <Kyral> Thunar
[03:56] <Kyral> or Rox-Filer
[03:56] <Bonez> Kyral: cheers
[03:56] <Kyral> or for a blast from the past
[03:56] <Kyral> Midnight Commander!
[03:56] <Nekow42> Bonez: I always used emelfm
[03:56] <foo> I am building openvpn, and I get this during the configure: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compuler cannot create executables. - Any ideas on what package I need to install for this?
[03:56] <Shigun> For some reason, I cannot get direct rendering working.  Using Nvidia drivers, installed and setup, yet direct rendering always returns no
[03:57] <trev__> ok, i jsut crashed ubuntu about 8 times in a row but nothing was saving whenever it happened, should i reinstall it or will it be fine
[03:57] <randysuarez> i have the same problem with my ati card
[03:57] <Kyral> Kyral.location == Shower :P
[03:57] <Kyral> Cya'll in a bit
[03:57] <Shigun> Anybody have a thought on what I could do to actually enable Direct Rendering?
[03:57] <Nekow42> trev__: can you be a bit more specific?
[03:58] <randysuarez> I've come to accept not having 3-d
[03:58] <randysuarez> LOL
[03:58] <computer13137> OK, I just installed Apache and VSFTPd.  How do I add a web user that has access to all of /var/www?
[03:58] <Nekow42> trev__: Is it crashing on boot?
[03:58] <Shigun> It worked fine for me before I reinstalled Ubuntu yesterday
[03:58] <Shigun> I have not had it sicne
[03:58] <Shigun> *since
[03:58] <Bonez> ok so I just installed Thunar, is there a way to make that default and then remove nautilus?
[03:58] <trev__> i was changing my drivers from vesa to nvidia and acidentally put in nvidia.
[03:58] <trev__> the period screwed it up
[03:58] <computer13137> brb
[03:58] <trev__> i then took 1 hour teaching myself the vi command
[03:58] <trev__> so i tbrashed a lot
[03:58] <foo> I am building openvpn, and I get this during the configure: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compuler cannot create executables. - Any ideas on what package I need to install for this?
[03:59] <Kyral> Vi is not a command...it is an Editor for the True Programmer!
[03:59] <sharms> !tell foo about compiler
[03:59] <ubotu> I know nothing about compiler - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:59] <sharms> !tell foo about compile
[03:59] <trev__> *crashed
[04:00] <rever> Has anyone been able to compile xawtv4?
[04:00] <trev__> well i just learned how to use it, but does crashing linux hurt it like windows
[04:00] <Nekow42> trev__: Well, ubuntu uses a journaling file system by default, so the ill effects of crashing are minimalized
[04:00] <sharms> trev__: how did you "crash" ubuntu
[04:00] <Bonez> is there a way to make Thunar my default file manager and remove nautilus?
[04:01] <Bonez> or is it possible to edit the "places" menu so that when I click "Home Folder" it launches it in Thunar instead of nautilus?
[04:01] <trev__> hit the hotrubute button because i didn't know :q! quiet
[04:02] <trev__> *rebute
[04:02] <trev__> *quit
[04:02] <foo> sharms: Thanks, but that doesn't help. hm
[04:02] <foo> sharms: I love the wiki, though. hmm
[04:02] <sharms> foo: it does help

[04:02] <TheAppleGeek> is there anything in the wiki on connecting to a secured wireless?
[04:03] <foo> sharms: Hm, I tried to read the readme for files I may need .. but there was none in there
[04:03] <trev__> yep
[04:03] <foo> hm
[04:03] <sharms> foo: did you install build-essential?
[04:03] <shiv> I have samsung printer and the cd with linux drivers how do I install it I am a newbie..plz help
[04:03] <trev__> it has a gui
[04:03] <Nekow42> trev__: You should be fine. Hitting the reset button on windows has the possibility of corrupting the filesystem. On ubuntu, the file system is a lot less easy to corrupt, since it journals all changes before making them (oversimplified explanation)
[04:03] <trev__> ok, thx, and is there a defrag utility for ubuntu
[04:03] <n3rdism> !temperature
[04:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about temperature - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:03] <sharms> trev__: doesn't need to be defragged
[04:03] <Nekow42> trev__: No linux filesystem needs defragging
[04:04] <kditty> am i the only one that has problems viewing youtube videos, i cant get any sound out of them if they do happen to play
[04:04] <trev__> that is awsome
[04:04] <n3rdism> younube! XD lololol
[04:04] <foo> sharms: er, no. Thanks. I apparently skimmed past that part.
[04:04] <sharms> foo: ;)
[04:05] <trev__> i have very blurry videos, much more so than in winows, is it my media player, it isflash and .avi
[04:05] <kditty> n3rdism, did i say something funny?
[04:05] <n3rdism> kditty: no im just messing around ^^
[04:05] <trev__> and my video driver is fine seeing i spent the last hour enabling it
[04:05] <torpedo|dog> shiv: go to System > Administration > Printers
[04:05] <sharms> trev__: is your resolution set correctly?
[04:05] <kditty> ok
[04:05] <trev__> i think it it
[04:05] <kditty> this is serious business ;x
[04:05] <trev__> *is
[04:05] <n3rdism> lol
[04:05] <kditty> i cant get sound out of any flash players really
[04:05] <trev__> yes it is
[04:05] <trev__> thats in the wiki
[04:06] <n3rdism> kditty: did you down load "adobe flash player 8"?
[04:06] <shiv> I did that it asks for the driver even though it recognises the name and brand of the printer
[04:06] <Se7h> n3rdism 8 ?
[04:06] <n3rdism> there is an 8 :o
[04:06] <TheAppleGeek> Adobe Shockwave just looks so weird in the preloader
[04:07] <Se7h> n3rdism where?
[04:07] <n3rdism> kditty: well im assuming you have an outdated flash player so go here http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[04:07] <torpedo|dog> shiv: so when you go to Step 2 of the printer dialog, and you find your model in the list, it won't let you go to "next">
[04:07] <TheAppleGeek> time to go back to trying to install whilst not screwing up my entire mac
[04:07] <n3rdism> se7h: www.adobe.com
[04:08] <Se7h> n3rdism thats version 7
[04:08] <kditty> ill try it n3rdism  thanks
[04:08] <shiv> I do not see my model :(
[04:08] <n3rdism> should be 9 ;o
[04:08] <shiv> its a samsung scx 4521
[04:08] <Se7h> its the latest for linux
[04:08] <kditty> i think automatix installed my version, im not sure though, its been a long time... how would i go about checking my version of flash?
[04:08] <n3rdism> adobe is retarded and confused me; my mistake lol
[04:09] <skavenge> uh thats version 7 you just posted a  link for
[04:09] <prophet> why is my clock always screwed up
[04:09] <n3rdism> 7 is latest flash player
[04:09] <n3rdism> for postix
[04:09] <prophet> i always set it to the correct time then when i restart its jacked uip
[04:09] <skavenge> you were just talking about 8
[04:09] <n3rdism> thats why i was confused
[04:09] <skavenge> ah
[04:09] <n3rdism> they were talking about the new flash player 9 and such
[04:09] <n3rdism> but its only windows and mac os
[04:10] <cycom> n3rdism: I bet it's because OSX uses UTC and windows uses local time.
[04:10] <cycom> n3rdism: not sure, but just a guess.  That and ubuntu updates with NTP
[04:10] <cycom> ya follow?
[04:10] <skavenge> your talking to the wrong person
[04:10] <n3rdism> i have a belly button
[04:10] <torpedo|dog> shiv: http://www.elijahlofgren.com/linux/ubuntu/#scx-4521f
[04:11] <cycom> skavenge: you're.
[04:11] <torpedo|dog> It's not easy, it doesn't look like.
[04:11] <skavenge> cycom: last i checked this wasn't english class
[04:11] <n3rdism> easy gents
[04:11] <skavenge> at least i can address my comments to the correct people
[04:11] <n3rdism> easy
[04:11] <vexmaster> hey guys!
[04:12] <n3rdism> hey vex
[04:12] <vexmaster> anyone have any problems with "make"
[04:12] <Se7h> vexmaster such as?
[04:12] <torpedo|dog> cycom: indeed, Windows sets your clock to Windows time.
[04:12] <torpedo|dog> *local time
[04:13] <vexmaster> it wont run whn i try to compile somthing
[04:13] <n3rdism> i found out how to get google talk on gaim; most people over looked this. but check this out if you're interested http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073
[04:13] <skavenge> vexmaster: likely you dont have build-essential installed, 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[04:13] <cycom> n3rdism: sorry, I was talking to the wrong person.
[04:13] <n3rdism> its cool cycom
[04:14] <vexmaster> kewl
[04:14] <vexmaster> kewl, im gonna install now
[04:14] <vexmaster> Thanks
[04:14] <IseeIsee> will gaim inform you if you have a receive a new gmail ?
[04:14] <n3rdism> iseelsee: nope :(
[04:14] <skavenge> np
[04:14] <IseeIsee> n3rdism: any alternative to that in linux ?
[04:15] <n3rdism> iseelsee: to gaim?
[04:15] <IseeIsee> no gmail notifier
[04:15] <kditty> n3rdism, still no sound
[04:15] <Shigun> K, so the person who was having the issue similar to me with Direct Rendering; I removed compiz and gnome-compiz, restarted, and it works fine now
[04:15] <n3rdism> kditty: are you sure you're sound drivers are configured?
[04:15] <n3rdism> iseelsee: thunderbird? lol
[04:15] <kditty> i can hear sound from all of my media players
[04:15] <cycom> skavenge: thanks for pointing it out.  I figured I'd return the favor, but if you're determined to use "your" instead of "you're", that's your prerogative.
[04:16] <kditty> n3rdism, i have sound in amorak and mplayer etc, just not through flash pages
[04:16] <Ninja> can anyone suggest a good CD burning program that converts formats too???
[04:16] <cycom> Ninja: like that rips to mp3?
[04:17] <cycom> Ninja: or the other way around?
[04:17] <n3rdism> kditty: try sudo alsaconf and make sure your alsa has your sound card configured
[04:17] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: Serpentine is a good CD burner.
[04:17] <Madpilot> Ninja, converts which formats to which other formats?
[04:17] <Ninja> torpedo|dog, that wont convert
[04:17] <kditty> n3rdism, sudo gedit?
[04:17] <Ninja> cycom, like mp3 to wav
[04:18] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: it's not supposed to, it's a CD burning application.
[04:18] <Ninja> torpedo|dog, i need one that converts too
[04:18] <Madpilot> Ninja, serpentine can produce audio CDs from mp3s
[04:18] <Ninja> Madpilot, how i dont see it in the options
[04:18] <chiefinnovator_> helo
[04:18] <cycom> Ninja: there are a few tuts out there for conversion utils.  It has been a while, but I would just convert all the mp3s to wavs.
[04:18] <Ninja> Madpilot, i need it to burn in wav
[04:18] <n3rdism> kditty: alsaconf isnt a file its an autoconfigure like netconfig
[04:18] <cycom> Ninja: seperately.
[04:18] <chiefinnovator_> is the the official ubuntu room?
[04:18] <n3rdism> yah chief
[04:19] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: do you need to burn it in WAV or do you need to burn it in CD format?
[04:19] <chiefinnovator_> sweet
[04:19] <cycom> Ninja: you can just convert them all.
[04:19] <bthornton> I'm looking at my xorg.conf file (Dapper) right now and and am noticing that there are many different InputDevices in the ServerLayout--particularly pointing devices.  There's "Configured Mouse", "stylus", "cursor", "eraser", and "Synaptics Touchpad".  Is this normal?
[04:19] <n3rdism> bthornton: yes
[04:19] <chiefinnovator_> question, I want to have a way to hold all of my passwords
[04:19] <kditty> sudo: alsaconf: command not found, thats what i get n3rdism
[04:19] <Ninja> torpedo|dog, i just need to to get converted so i can play it in a CD player
[04:19] <chiefinnovator_> and keep it secure, maybe encrypted
[04:19] <cycom> bthornton: for some reason, yes, but unless you have a tablet, I think you can disable the stylus, cursor, erasor, and all that.
[04:19] <plouj> if I want a bootable ubuntu USB stick, I just have to dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/usb right?
[04:19] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: just add the songs to your CD
[04:19] <chiefinnovator_> Is there an easy to use app for that?
[04:19] <Sola6662> can some1 help me i cant get sound thats intergraded into the motherborad
[04:19] <n3rdism> kditty: yah im sorry; im not sure if ubuntu has alsaconfig; you might have to ask someone else
[04:19] <Nekow42> bthornton: If by normal, you mean do I have it too, then yes
[04:19] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: and make sure you have the MP3 codecs installed
[04:19] <kditty> ok thanks
[04:20] <Ninja> torpedo|dog, `i dont think u understand what i wanna do
[04:20] <bthornton> Ok, the reason I ask is because my touchpad is acting really funny--particularly, it "clicks" and holds any time I touch the pad.  This means that I drag everything in random places.  I wonder if it has to do with there being so many InputDevices active?
[04:20] <dadgumit> holy crap is this working?
[04:20] <n3rdism> yah dad
[04:20] <chiefinnovator_> any ideas?
[04:20] <n3rdism> bthornton: what kind of laptop are you using?
[04:20] <chiefinnovator_> would truecrypt work?
[04:21] <cycom> dadgumit: Nope! It's a figment of your imagination.
[04:21] <Madpilot> Ninja, if what you want to do is create regular audio CDs from mp3 files, then Serpentine does that nicely.
[04:21] <cycom> dadgumit: :)
[04:21] <Sola6662> anyone knows how to enable sound if u dony have a sound card?
[04:21] <bthornton> n3rdism: Compaq V2000
[04:21] <bthornton> with a Synaptics touchpad
[04:21] <dadgumit> i think my double proc speed bug is fixed
[04:21] <ozzloy> how can you tell what program has a file open?
[04:21] <dadgumit> hot dog
[04:21] <dadgumit> ONE FARGIN LETTER AT A TIME
[04:21] <dadgumit> :)
[04:21] <torpedo|dog> Ninja: if you use Serpentine (Applications > Sound & Video > Serpentine Audio CD Creator) that will make an audio CD For you.
[04:21] <plouj> Sola6662: buy a sound card?
[04:21] <cycom> Sola6662: you still have a sound card.  What kind of on board sound is it, do you know?
[04:21] <lg8> sup
[04:21] <dadgumit> man that was epic googling if it is fixed
[04:21] <Sola6662> yes on bound
[04:21] <ozzloy> test
[04:21] <dadgumit> seriously i have never had a os install last weeks
[04:21] <Sola6662> borad
[04:21] <cycom> dadgumit: what was the problem?
[04:22] <Sola6662> my other PC sound works
[04:22] <jared_> Okay: I got camserv setup, but I type in sudo camserv /etc/..... for the config file, it goes to the next line in the terminal, and nothing happens
[04:22] <lg8> unsure
[04:22] <Sola6662> and the sound is onborad
[04:22] <cycom> Sola6662: what type of sound card is it for the on-board?
[04:22] <cycom> Sola6662: as in what chipset?
[04:22] <dadgumit> cycom: you name it I had it, my latest one (that I think is now fixed) was the double speed bug
[04:22] <Sola6662> idk where and how can i get that info now?
[04:22] <ozzloy> asdf
[04:22] <cycom> dadgumit: oh, 64 bit processor?
[04:22] <prophet> can someone help me figure out why my clock is always jacked up?
[04:23] <dadgumit> but I have been through dapper installer issues, pnpbios issues, onboard nic issues, getting both cores rolling, you name it
[04:23] <cycom> prophet: are you on a mac?
[04:23] <prophet> no
[04:23] <dadgumit> cycom: yuppers, 64biy
[04:23] <dadgumit> bit
[04:23] <dadgumit> and I gotta say, A8rMVP asus is NOT ready for ubuntu, or vice versa
[04:23] <cycom> dadgumit: I had that clock problem too when I had a 64 bit. Crazy, isn't it?
[04:23] <dadgumit> this is awesomeness
[04:23] <lotwook> Is there a way to have the grub menu display non-selectable titles, and also to add space between lines?
[04:23] <cycom> dadgumit: I have a core duo right now.
[04:23] <dadgumit> cycom: yes
[04:24] <dadgumit> cycom: nice, I was thining about going back to intel with those new conroe chips
[04:24] <Sola6662> cycom where and how can i get that info now?
[04:24] <dadgumit> cycom: but amd is messing around with a huge price drop, so maybe i stil be amd awhile
[04:24] <cycom> dadgumit: they are releasing the core 2 duo now, I think.  They're taking on AMD in specs and performance.
[04:24] <dadgumit> Anyone know how to take an image of my install before I start tweaking?
[04:24] <cycom> Sola6662: lspci might show you.
[04:24] <n3rdism> bthornton: check out http://ereb.us/wiki/index.php/Laptop/LinuxLaptop
[04:25] <dadgumit> cycom: yeah, looks like amd is going back to price as thier battleship
[04:25] <Sola6662> i type that in the term*?
[04:25] <bthornton> n3rdism: I'm there; thanks
[04:25] <cycom> dadgumit: I like my core duo.  And the first gen core 2 duo are supposed to be socket compatable with it, so I might spring for that!
[04:25] <n3rdism> if you ever have hardware issues in linux check http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/ first to make sure its supported
[04:25] <dadgumit> not only is this fixed, but the solution was to try like 10 commands with a reboot each time, and the first one worked (wonder if some of the others might work more efficiantly
[04:25] <cycom> dadgumit: this is a laptop though.
[04:26] <cycom> Sola6662: yup!
[04:26] <dadgumit> cycom:  it's a never ending cycle isn't it >:)
[04:26] <cycom> dadgumit: that's life baby.
[04:26] <Sola6662> 0000:00:10.0 Modem: PCTel Inc: Unknown device 2189 (rev 04)
[04:26] <IseeIsee> any good java IDE for Ubuntu ?
[04:26] <cycom> Sola6662: nah, that's your modem.  look for like audio.
[04:26] <Sola6662> idk if thats the sound or not
[04:26] <dadgumit> cycom: you know how many computers I would hve had that would have been laptops if it wasn't for gaming :)
[04:26] <dadgumit> so for now I just rely on corporate patronage on the laptop front
[04:26] <cycom> dadgumit: I can play HL2 on this just fine :)
[04:27] <ozzloy> a
[04:27] <cycom> dadgumit: I made the mistake of putting Vista beta on it today.   Ick.
[04:27] <cs378> hi every one,
[04:27] <sharms> IseeIsee; how about eclipse
[04:27] <n3rdism> <-- installing oblivion as we speak
[04:27] <dadgumit> cycom: probably outspecs my desktop
[04:27] <IseeIsee> sharms: never used eclipse
[04:27] <Sola6662> cycom thats not showing up
[04:27] <cycom> Sola6662: I dunno then dude. Sorry.
[04:27] <dadgumit> cycom: do you know if any of the double speed bug fixes might be more efficient than others ?
[04:27] <Sola6662> poop
[04:27] <cs378> does anyone know why running Stream with wine freezes the computer?
[04:28] <chiefinnovator_> encryption?
[04:28] <dadgumit> !oblivian
[04:28] <IseeIsee> sharms: can I separately download eclipse & install it on Ubuntu or would it also be from withing the package management thing ?
[04:28] <ubotu> I know nothing about oblivian - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:28] <cycom> dadgumit: There was a kernel patch.  My vid card is a Mobility Radeon X1300 with 128mb of ram.
[04:28] <n3rdism> !wine > cs378
[04:28] <dadgumit> !oblivion
[04:28] <ubotu> I know nothing about oblivion - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:28] <jiSh> couple questions in one: how can i make a desktop shortcut that allows irssi to open up, with a preset window size and location on desktop; and also how do i make it change the window name to irssi
[04:28] <sharms> IseeIsee: search for eclipse
[04:28] <Sola6662> cycom would it come on if i were to look up my mobo crap?
[04:28] <cs378> n3rdism: ?
[04:28] <cycom> Sola6662: perhaps.  Try looking it up in winblows if you can.
[04:28] <dadgumit> cycom: I prolly got you by just a hair then, butnot much
[04:28] <dadgumit> n3rdism: oblivion?
[04:29] <n3rdism> elder scrolls 4: oblivion :D
[04:29] <sharms> n3rdism: does cedega run that ok?
[04:29] <dadgumit> I thought for sure the fact that novell just released today was a sign, but this seems to be working
[04:29] <Sola6662> poop no dualboot for me >.<
[04:29] <cycom> dadgumit: it can steal some system memory too.  I have a 1.66ghz core duo with 512 of ram, and another 512 on the way.
[04:29] <cs378> !wine
[04:29] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:29] <dadgumit> Need help, how can I take an image of my setup?
[04:29] <n3rdism> sharms: yar it runs it great; but you have to install this third party shader beacuse they rushed support for it
[04:30] <n3rdism> dadgumit: a screenshot?
[04:30] <cycom> dadgumit: 100gb 5400rpm sata hd too.  Remote.  15.4 inch widescreen.  It's t3h s3xy when I get my monitor at work on top of it.  Huge worksapce.  1280x800 laptop + 1280 x 1024 flatscreen.
[04:30] <Sola6662> geting wine to install is a pain in the ass
[04:30] <prophet> ?
[04:30] <dadgumit> n3rdism: no, i mean a backup image
[04:30] <cycom> dadgumit: a fingerprint reader, and a partridge in a pear tree.
[04:30] <n3rdism> wine is still in beta so its kind of "unpredictable"
[04:30] <dadgumit> cycom: do you have docking or are you having to plug in?
[04:30] <Sola6662> that maybe y
[04:31] <cycom> dadgumit: I plug in.  It's a toshiba.
[04:31] <cycom> dadgumit: the two usb ports, the gigethernet and the video out are all in the same place, so it's cake.
[04:31] <cs378> n3rdism: I know, but many people say Stream/Counter Strike work great in Ubuntu.
[04:31] <n3rdism> ive ran counterstrike on slack before ^^
[04:31] <dadgumit> cycom: teh HP docks, but it's all bidness, no sechsy do get to have matched high end panels though
[04:31] <Sola6662> it does
[04:31] <prophet> Steam*
[04:31] <n3rdism> if i can get it to run on slack you can get it to run on ubuntu lol
[04:31] <cs378> n3rdism: I can't find any support on it
[04:32] <dadgumit> any help on takinga back up image of my ubuntu install?
[04:32] <cs378> prophet: or is it that i spelled it wrong :P
[04:32] <cycom> dadgumit: and at work I have my own gige jack on our backbone.  I downloaded office 2007 beta at 1.27 Mbytes/sec.
[04:32] <dadgumit> I suppose I could take an image of my entire hard drive from windows, but that's gimp
[04:32] <n3rdism> cs378: try cedega; i would highly recommend it. you have to pay but its not that bad
[04:32] <cycom> dadgumit: you want to back it up? to what?
[04:32] <alnokta> hello fellows
[04:32] <dadgumit> cycom: I had gig-e at my last shop, new floor has no gige :(
[04:32] <cycom> dadgumit: do the whole hard drive thing, but with linux, and bzip2 it.
[04:32] <Sola6662> i got wine to install and run BeatmaniaDX
[04:32] <n3rdism> cs378: its 5 dollars a month; and you ahve to pay the first 3 up front
[04:32] <cs378> n3rdism: Yeah, I know, I poor :(
[04:32] <alnokta> or buntu folks
[04:32] <cs378> I'm*
[04:33] <cycom> dadgumit: aww, that sucks.  I work at university.
[04:33] <Nekow42> You only have to pay for binaries of cedega
[04:33] <alnokta> *u
[04:33] <dadgumit> cycom:  is there a linux ut that sucks
[04:33] <dadgumit> lol
[04:33] <n3rdism> cs378: well im fairly certain you can get it on bittorrent lol
[04:33] <cycom> dadgumit: hrm?
[04:33] <dadgumit> cycom:  is there a linux ut that does backup images?
[04:33] <cycom> dadgumit: dd :)
[04:33] <dadgumit> cycom: mixed thoughts
[04:33] <cs378> n3rdism: Really? he he he he, time to search for it
[04:33] <prophet> i use to play CS alot but its boring now
[04:33] <IseeIsee> can I install Eclipse from Synaptic or should I download the separate tar.gz file from the website ?
[04:33] <alnokta> the channel is crowded ...
[04:33] <cs378> n3rdism: Thanks for the tip
[04:33] <dadgumit> cycom: working at a uni is teh bandwidth for real
[04:33] <abonilla> I'm trying to rip an CD into mp3, and the lame package is not there. What is used now?
[04:33] <cycom> dadgumit: I'd apt-get install pv as well.  lets you see how much data flows through a pipe.
[04:34] <n3rdism> cs378: you might have to look into point2play as well
[04:34] <cs378> n3rdism: ohk, ill see :)
[04:34] <dadgumit> cycom: dd = backup app or typo?
[04:34] <n3rdism> cs378 but there are howtos and tuts on "hacking" cedega online; just google it >.<
[04:34] <cycom> dadgumit: tell me about it.  I work on the switches too.  I get some serious privs at this place.
[04:34] <cycom> dadgumit: backup app.
[04:34] <cs378> n3rdism: haha, i did, i cant find anything
[04:34] <prophet> so anyone know why my clock might be messed up
[04:34] <prophet> anyone had the same issue?
[04:34] <abonilla> I'm trying to rip an CD into mp3, and the lame package is not there. What is used now?
[04:34] <cycom> dd if=/dev/<harddrive> of=/place/to/store/image bs=512
[04:34] <dadgumit> cycom: thnx
[04:34] <n3rdism> cs378: let me see if i can find the one i once used
[04:34] <cycom> dadgumit: ^
[04:35] <cs378> n3rdism: i think i speed it wrong as phophet told me >.<
[04:35] <Sola6662> is  cedega better then wine?
[04:35] <cs378> spelled*
[04:35] <skavenge> abonilla: wiki.ubuntu.com/CDRipping , gives you the list of libs you need to install to get sound juicer to rip to mp3
[04:35] <n3rdism> cedega has a lot more support then wine
[04:35] <cycom> dadgumit: do some serious googling first.  dd + pv = watch the progress.  you can even use pipes to compress it as you do that backup.
[04:35] <n3rdism> they are constantly updating it and adding to it
[04:35] <prophet> rar
[04:35] <Sola6662> shit then i should get getting that other then wine
[04:35] <dadgumit> cycom: google and me go way back
[04:35] <cycom> dadgumit: it totally kicks ass.
[04:35] <Sola6662> can u link me
[04:36] <cycom> dadgumit: dd has saved my sorry ass many a time.
[04:36] <dadgumit> cycom: that is why I want to back up, this is my first fully functional stable  and I don't want to jump through all these hoops again to get back here
[04:36] <n3rdism> #cs378: i think if you find an older version of cedega on bittorrent is the way you should go, i mean youre only playing cs (what 1.6?) and support for that was built a long ass time ago
[04:37] <n3rdism> -#
[04:37] <cycom> dadgumit: dd will give you a nice hd image.  do you have a samba share that you can back to? or another external hd?
[04:37] <cs378> n3rdism: yeah, i only play cs1.6
[04:37] <cycom> dadgumit: first off, do you have enough space to backup the whole hd? or just the linux partitions?
[04:37] <dadgumit> cycom: yeah, I do
[04:37] <dadgumit> cycom: both
[04:37] <cycom> dadgumit: if you can back up the whole hd, do it.
[04:37] <cs378> n3rdism: okay, i guess ill dl it off BT :) thx
[04:37] <ajt> I've got a ubuntu file server that has 2 nfs exports. When I try to mount them on the client I get the error "mount server reported tcp not available, falling back to udp         mount: RPC: Program not registered" Anyone know what's wrong. Both clients & server have nfs ports in rpcinfo -p and the ips in /etc/export & /etc/fstab are correct. Server & clietns are running.
[04:37] <n3rdism> np cs
[04:37] <cycom> dadgumit: just one shot.  if you only want a partition out of it later on, you can mount them within the image, because linux rocks like that.
[04:37] <dadgumit> cycom: does that make reinstall less painfull?
[04:38] <alnokta> as always i have an issue(not myself .. my *buntu) .... i hope you bear with me .....
[04:38] <cycom> dadgumit: reinstall? you just image it back.  no reinstall required.  takes forever though. just keep that in mind.
[04:38] <dadgumit> cycom: lol, there is a really good winbackup util that can do that (expensive though)
[04:38] <cycom> dadgumit: norton ghost?
[04:38] <cycom> dadgumit: that's what we use at work.  we have a bart disk.
[04:38] <dadgumit> cycom: no can't recall the name
[04:39] <dadgumit> cycom: this is old knowledge but at the time it was > ghost
[04:39] <dadgumit> cycom: played with suse yet?
[04:39] <the_hammer> hi
[04:39] <dadgumit> cycom: the new release?
[04:39] <dadgumit> the_hammer: hola!
[04:39] <ajt> I saw 10.1 for a minute
[04:39] <cycom> dadgumit: that doesn't suprise me.  ghost is kind of a pain.  dd has saved many a dead hd too.  Nah, I played with suse a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.
[04:39] <prophet> why is there only Boise as a time zonew?
[04:39] <the_hammer> anyone here know eggdrops?
[04:39] <cycom> dadgumit: I like gentoo and ubuntu best.
[04:39] <prophet> I live in Oregon there is no PST?
[04:39] <ajt> I heard suse enterprise is pretty nice
[04:40] <n3rdism> i was about to install opensuse -current but i decided with ubuntu because they have black people on their ads
[04:40] <cycom> dadgumit: gentoo is only for the masochistic.
[04:40] <cs378> LOL
[04:40] <the_hammer> lol
[04:40] <abonilla> skavenge: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse: Depends: liblame0 (>= 3.96.1-1) but it is not installable
[04:40] <n3rdism> yay for black people
[04:40] <the_hammer> hahaha
[04:40] <cycom> n3rdism: as good a reason as any.
[04:40] <n3rdism> XD
[04:40] <dadgumit> cycom: I am just comming back to linux last time I installed for any length of time red hat was on like 5
[04:40] <cycom> n3rdism: you hear about the CDs shipped to the uninhabited island?
[04:40] <dadgumit> mandrake was still mandrake
[04:41] <joeyk232> is there a /etc/rc.d/boot.local file in ubuntu?
[04:41] <cycom> dadgumit: EWW! Deadrat.
[04:41] <n3rdism> cycom: whats that?
[04:41] <the_hammer> can anyone help me with setting up an eggdrop its very close to being compleate
[04:41] <n3rdism> dadgumit: technically isnt mandrake the "enterprise" and mandrive the "open"?
[04:41] <cycom> n3rdism: apparently Canonical accidentally shipped some Ubuntu CDs to an uninhabited island.
[04:41] <the_hammer> if ya can msg me pls
[04:41] <dadgumit> I am so loving not having thirty letters appear when I hit a key
[04:41] <n3rdism> mandriva*

[04:42] <cycom> Madpilot: dunno.  Don't remember.
[04:42] <n3rdism> cycom: where on earth? lol
[04:42] <dadgumit> n3rdism: I think the enterprize dropped out but I could be mistaken, maybe confusing it with correll
[04:42] <cycom> n3rdism: I found it in the forums or something I think.
[04:42] <adrian__> hello
[04:42] <cycom> n3rdism: it could be bull, but I think distrowatch quoted it too.
[04:42] <dadgumit> distrowatch is the win for that type info
[04:42] <n3rdism> cycom: ill have to find that lol
[04:42] <cycom> n3rdism: totally.
[04:42] <alnokta> i have choosen while installing buntu "Start in Graphics SAFE MODE" .. is it possible that this is the reason i have problems with the video card now... for example when i try to change the display ..it just closes and asks for login again......
[04:42] <_3fg> dadgumit: can you help me out?
[04:42] <n3rdism> mandrake cant make up their mind lol

[04:44] <cycom> _3fg: what do you need a hand with?
[04:44] <_3fg> well, I installed Opera 9
[04:44] <_3fg> then I deleted it from /usr/bin/
[04:44] <cycom> _3fg: Oh, I'm out.  don't know opera :)
[04:44] <n3rdism> cycom: http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20060220 just f3 for uninhabited lol
[04:44] <cycom> _3fg: j/k

[04:45] <_3fg> sooooo, how do I uninstall it properly
[04:45] <Bonez> my fat32 partition is showing up as read only in nautilis/thunar however in a terminal i can quite happy edit/rm files. how can I fix this?
[04:45] <dadgumit> _3fg: oh, this sounds like a question for a ubuntu person, but have you tried installing it from the package manager?
[04:45] <n3rdism> _3fg: synaptic it?
[04:45] <_3fg> would it be in synaptic?
[04:45] <Nekow42> _3fg: force an uninstall?
[04:45] <_3fg> Nekow42: how?
[04:46] <Nekow42> _3fg: If you installed a deb, it'll be in synaptic
[04:46] <tedhhi> Anybody in here going to OSCON?
[04:46] <dadgumit> _3fg: System ->Administration -> synaptic package manager
[04:46] <cycom> Bonez: do you have to sudo to edit?
[04:46] <DAMNJACK> can someone help me 2 min...   i want sound....
[04:46] <_3fg> ha, it is in synaptic
[04:46] <dadgumit> _3fg: search for opera
[04:46] <alnokta> thats why i don't like chat rooms .. if it has a few users it becomes boring .. if it has a lot of users .. you got ignored
[04:46] <_3fg> dadgumit: search didn't turn anything up
[04:46] <Bonez> cycom: no
[04:46] <_3fg> I found a file by hand later on
[04:47] <n3rdism> bonez: you have to sudo nano /etc/fstab
[04:47] <Bonez> cycom: yes i do actually, my bad
[04:47] <dadgumit> alnokta: you just need a littlepatience, I have been feeling your pain lately, what's up?
[04:47] <n3rdism> bonez: and change permissions for the drive
[04:47] <n3rdism> !fstab
[04:47] <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
[04:47] <cycom> Bonez: if the permissions are correct in fstab, make sure they are in /media/ as well.
[04:47] <cs378> is the slow speed of moving or sizing a window normal?
[04:48] <alnokta> >	i have choosen while installing buntu "Start in Graphics SAFE MODE" .. is it possible that this is the reason i have problems with the video card now... for example when i try to change the display ..it just closes and asks for login again......
[04:48] <abonilla> How can I force the install of a package with apt-get?
[04:48] <Bonez> cycom: /dev/hda6      /media/d    vfat iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0
[04:48] <n3rdism> cs378: teh video drivers?
[04:48] <Bonez> cycom: what permissions do I need to set in /media
[04:48] <cs378> n3rdism: i installed fglx, Ati Mobility Radeon 9700
[04:48] <ardchoille> abonilla: Why do you feel the need to force an install?
[04:48] <n3rdism> cs378: OH NOES NOT ATI! ;.;
[04:49] <jameswang> How can I let my "my.sh" auto run at startup?
[04:49] <cycom> Bonez: I'd set user in the line with umak=000, but I may be wrong.
[04:49] <jersymike> hello can someone help me out with knoppix
[04:49] <__mikem> @lart #ubuntu-offtopic RadiantFire

[04:49] <dadgumit> alnokta: Sorry I am not gonna be much help on that one, but I would imagine, yes that would be true
[04:49] <cycom> Bonez: I'm afraid I'm only quazi useful.
[04:49] <abonilla> ardchoille: why answer a question with a question?
[04:49] <abonilla> :)
[04:49] <n3rdism> ati is the devil's spawn
[04:49] <Bonez> cycom: cheers for trying :)
[04:49] <ardchoille> abonilla: Why question every answer?
[04:49] <Bonez> n3rdism: do you have any ideas about the permissions i need to set?
[04:49] <dadgumit> ardchoille: lol
[04:49] <cycom> Bonez: np.  I just made my folder in /media/ 777, but that's bad.
[04:50] <DAMNJACK> Hey huston we have a problem       We got no sound here.... Can you help me
[04:50] <n3rdism> !fstab
[04:50] <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
[04:50] <abonilla> ardchoille: exacly. I haven't even received one! ;-)

[04:50] <ldrhcp> can anybody help with my graphics card? intel gma 900
[04:50] <dadgumit> away for a bit
[04:50] <ardchoille> abonilla: I was trying to ascertain if I could help you install without forcing it. I have used Linux for 5+ years and have never needed to force an install.
[04:50] <n3rdism> bonez: tells you how to understand fstab
[04:50] <cycom> jersymike: I'd try ##linux.  more likely to find someone who knows knoppix.
[04:51] <abonilla> ardchoille: Here's your Linux trofee

[04:51] <ardchoille> abonilla: ok, I was available and willing to help, if you don't want help, that's ok.
[04:51] <alnokta> If that is the case .. then the question would be "How to start xserver in normal state?"
[04:51] <abonilla> ardchoille: :) Thanks I don't need help, just an answer.
[04:51] <joeyk232> anyone know where the boot.local file is?
[04:52] <cycom> abonilla: give a man a fish...
[04:52] <n3rdism> alnokta: i think ctrl+alt+backspace restartss xserver try that?

[05:20] <nemik> richifriech: it doesn't matter, but i have one locally for testing on on HD (hda) and want the 2nd one on the 2nd physical drive (hdb mounted in /opt) to have its own SQL instance for something else. and no need for any other apaches or php's or anything else
[05:20] <richiefrich> Shak- how strange..
[05:20] <Shak-> richiefrich: roger that
[05:21] <richiefrich> nemik just make more databases inside mysql
[05:21] <richiefrich> or

[05:21] <nao> hi, I'm trying to compile a program from the source and while it's going through the long lines of stuff during ./configure, it keeps giving me an error saying that the sdl-config script installed by SDL could not be found, does anyone know how to fix that?
[05:21] <richiefrich> d/l mysql and install it where u want
[05:21] <richiefrich> but hopefully they dont conflict
[05:21] <foo> What is a good frontend program for populating a ldap database?
[05:21] <alnokta> here is my pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18329
[05:22] <nemik> richifriech: but that will not create it on the 2nd physcal drive. i want it on the 2nd HD as a whole other mysql instance, completely seperate. so i should just use the binaries from mysql.com?
[05:22] <sri_> can any one tell how to join in python?
[05:22] <sri_> i typed /j #python
[05:23] <sri_> but it is saying that u have to select u r nick
[05:24] <alnokta> it continues to load but missing alot of things
[05:24] <Madpilot> sri_, I just tried "/join #python" and it worked fine - which IRC app are you using?
[05:24] <tcv> Hey guys: I managed to get BitchX installed. And it works. But I don't understand how it launches. I type "BitchX" and it launches, but ... where is it? I can't find the executable or anything else...
[05:24] <sri_> Madpilot, ubuntu x-chat
[05:24] <tag> dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:191: process_queue: Assertion `dependtry <= 4' failed.
[05:24] <tag> why?
[05:25] <Madpilot> sri_, I'm using the same app - /join #python doesn't work for you?
[05:25] <sri_> Madpilot, what is the process u r following
[05:25] <sri_> Madpilot, where to type /join #python

[05:27] <Madpilot> sri_, leave the quotes off it - *only* type the stuff inside the quote
[05:27] <alnokta> sri_; may be you need to register your nick by nickserv

[05:28] <cheatersrealm> sri_:  /msg nickserv help
[05:29] <cheatersrealm> sri_: that help is fairly easy to follow, and you can get the correct sytnax by using that
[05:29] <richiefrich> nemik   it's something like   --.  make install --pre-fix /DIR-WHERE_U WANT
[05:29] <nemik> richifriech: ok, cool. i'll do that. thanks
[05:29] <sri_> cheatersrealm, thank u can u plz tell me the process?
[05:30] <richiefrich> nemik try it.. but read the INSTALL it's close to - make insatll --pre-fix=/
[05:30] <cheatersrealm> sri_: yeah it's /msg nickserv register <PASSWORD>
[05:30] <richiefrich> not to sure that might be it ..    --pre-fix

[05:32] <Guest477> wow thanks, that helps me too :)
[05:32] <richiefrich> nemik   -- >    ./configure --prefix=/path/
[05:32] <nao> sorry for the interupt
[05:32] <sri_> cheatersrealm, ya i have registered then how to join in it?
[05:33] <planetcall> a small problem here ! I am unable to make a link to rssowl (http://www.rssowl.org/) on my desktop. The link/launcher are not working and throwing a java exception. Though I can fire the app from the installation directory. Its a small file. Please guide me with it
[05:33] <BioGeek> I tried to compile the example xml from http://xmlresume.sourceforge.net/, but Java is having troubles with it, I presume.
[05:33] <richiefrich> nemik i just checked u  must do it  in the  ./configure   part
[05:34] <planetcall> someone on my question ?
[05:34] <Shak-> richiefrich: ok I managed to get it to work, im trying to work on the file associations now, I set one extension (.php) to open with wine /path/to/uedit32.exe, but the loading fails in the actual program
[05:34] <nemik> richifriech: awesome that helps a lot. thank you again
[05:35] <richiefrich> nemik np
[05:35] <cheatersrealm> sri_: /join #channelname
[05:35] <LuisMendes> I want to remove the "bittorrent" package in order to install the official bittorrent client.. but to do that, "ubuntu-desktop" must be removed as well. now what? help!
[05:35] <richiefrich> nemik u should n be able to do that with any..   app.. if u install from source
[05:35] <planetcall> cheatersrealm, help me buddy . I am confused with this java app.
[05:36] <Madpilot> LuisMendes, ubuntu-desktop is only important when it's time to upgrade to the next version of Ubuntu
[05:36] <IseeIsee> I'm updating the jdk using apt-get install sun-java-*    where is this jdk being installed ?
[05:36] <Guest477> i just need to know if there are any webmasters here who can recommend a good and inexpesive webhost for a friend of mine :) please
[05:36] <planetcall> ln -s  run.sh ~/Desktop/rssowl  creates a link but it doesnt launches it
[05:37] <richiefrich> Shak- hmm u mean in the    windows app it fails?
[05:37] <LuisMendes> Madpilot, so may I remove it with no worries?
[05:37] <alnokta> Shak, would i have to reinstall my ubuntu to get back to normal graphic system?
[05:37] <knapper> Does anyone here use a mx310 logitech mouse?
[05:37] <Madpilot> LuisMendes, yes - but the 'official' BT package should be able to co-exist w/ gnome-torrent
[05:37] <planetcall> I dont really want to say.........but I had no problem using this java app on window :( sad to say so
[05:37] <richiefrich> planetcall  what are u doing?
[05:37] <IseeIsee> I'm updating the jdk using apt-get install sun-java-*    where is this jdk being installed ?
[05:38] <LuisMendes> Madpilot, actually it says that there's a conflict... between the official and the ubuntu one
[05:38] <cheatersrealm> IseeIsee: can you do 'java' after it installs?  if so, 'which java'
[05:38] <planetcall> richiefrich, creating a link/launcher to rssowl application (http://www.rssowl.org/)
[05:38] <planetcall> on desktop
[05:38] <Madpilot> LuisMendes, ah, nevermind - I just use gnome-torrent myself, never bothered with the other BT apps
[05:38] <richiefrich> planetcall then why not add it to your PATH ?
[05:38] <IseeIsee> cheatersrealm: installing whichever is the latest java
[05:38] <Shak-> richiefrich: yep, its weird, the path it sees is H:\ome\shak\file.php (its the typo thats causing it to fail)
[05:39] <LuisMendes> Madpilot, I need it in order to download separate files inside a torrent
[05:39] <IseeIsee> cheatersrealm: also i wanna know where is it installing java-docs ? isn't this insane that the OS does not even let you decide where is it installing what unlike windows
[05:39] <planetcall> richiefrich, making a simple link never required so many hassles. :( dont you think its a little too much for a simple application to be added to path ?
[05:40] <planetcall> richiefrich, if this is the last option, i will do it anyway
[05:40] <cheatersrealm> IseeIsee: not really, thinks mostly have a correct place and it puts them there
[05:40] <richiefrich> planetcall  where is the  app u are lanuching ?  /usr/bin ?  /usr/local/bin ?
[05:40] <cheatersrealm> IseeIsee: I mean, if you can run 'java' from a command line, then run 'which java' to figure out where it installed the jre
[05:40] <planetcall> /opt/rssowl122rc1/run.sh
[05:40] <richiefrich> planetcall  thats why
[05:41] <knapper> Does anyone here use a mx310 logitech mouse?
[05:41] <lepine> Hey, is anyone having trouble with mysql admin on dapper?
[05:41] <planetcall> but thats my local application installation path
[05:41] <lepine> mine crashes whenever i try to view the users
[05:41] <richiefrich> planetcall  try thisd
[05:41] <richiefrich> planetcall  ln -s  /opt/rssowl122rc1/run.sh  ~/Desktop/rssowl
[05:42] <richiefrich> and click on it
[05:42] <`Evil`> richiefrich, sorry for the delay, comp started acting up, here it is -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18331  but i cant make out my tuner model or anything there
[05:42] <Mixx> when I run Xawtv, perhaps because of a kernel upgrade, all i get is a black screen and the system becomes completely unresponsive (nned to power off and on) any suggestions?
[05:42] <IseeIsee> cheatersrealm right now I'm getting this:
[05:43] <richiefrich> `Evil` lookin
[05:43] <IseeIsee> Setting up sun-java5-doc (1.5.0-06-1) ...
[05:43] <IseeIsee> This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
[05:43] <IseeIsee> J2SDK documentation.  You will need to go download one of the
[05:43] <IseeIsee> archives:  jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip jdk-1_5_0-doc-ja.zip
[05:43] <Mixx> i've tried reinstalling xawtv
[05:43] <chiefinnovator_> It's weird when somethign crashes it asks me to report it
[05:43] <planetcall> richiefrich, i already typed above that is not working. i gives some exception. you want to see ?
[05:43] <chiefinnovator_> but then I have to choose the program and describe steps to reproduce it
[05:43] <IseeIsee> I must say that linux distro are far away from being a consumer OS, installing, figuring out things is pretty complicated
[05:43] <chiefinnovator_> I have no idea
[05:43] <chiefinnovator_> am I right?
[05:43] <chiefinnovator_> am I right?
[05:43] <Guest477> it also does not cost 150$ us
[05:43] <richiefrich> planetcall then try this -- >  /opt/rssowl122rc1/run.sh
[05:43] <richiefrich> in a term
[05:44] <richiefrich>  what happenes?
[05:44] <chiefinnovator_> thanks, I'll be here all week folks
[05:44] <Jude> is it possible to make playlists with totem?
[05:44] <Jude> or from the command line?
[05:44] <planetcall> see PM its a few lines of exception
[05:44] <Guest477> linux's GUI is in refinment but the OS itself is fairly reliable :)
[05:44] <Guest477> imho
[05:45] <Jude> does anyone know?
[05:46] <Guest477> hey knapper
[05:46] <some_dude> I'm trying to setup a software raid on my ubuntu box. I've got one drive to boot from, and two more I want to raid
[05:47] <foo> Hm, in httpd.conf I see "This is here for backwards compatibility reasons and to support installing 3rd party modules directly via apxs2, rather than through the /etc/apache2/mods-{available,enabled} mechanism." I am following http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_dav.html and it says to put "Dav On" in httpd.conf ... hmm, do I still put in there? Or do I do something special?
[05:47] <knapper> Guest477: Hi
[05:47] <IseeIsee> what the hell is this: I downloaded the full jdk using apt-get install sun-java5-*             and now when I'm doing java -version its still the old java 4.1
[05:47] <Guest477> hi knapper , what troubles are you having... and lemme look up the mouse to see what you have also

[05:49] <danieleboyo> hi im having installation trouble
[05:49] <alnokta> just ask
[05:49] <kwtm> Where can I find what is different about packages that are now upgradable?  For example, I'm using Ubuntu kernel 2.6.15-26.44, but now can upgrade to 2.6.15-26.45.  How do I find out what security fixes, etc., are in the newest upgrade and whether it would be worthwhile upgrading?
[05:49] <danieleboyo> with ubuntu
[05:49] <Buddhiya> my question is yesterday I edited my fstab file , the fstab contains /dev/hda3 as the / partition , Now I changed the / partition to /dev/hda6 my editing it manually , and hashed the original / partition ie hda3 and rebooted . I assumed that the machine will not boot due to change in root partition in  fstab , But to my suprise it booted and a mount command now revels the / partition as /dev/hda6 , I didnt changed the grub
[05:49] <danieleboyo> can anyone help me?
[05:49] <Guest477>  Logitech MX310 Optical Mouse , i see it knap

[05:50] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:50] <Madpilot> danieleboyo, more specifics that just "installation trouble" would get you better help...
[05:50] <richiefrich> `Evil` i dont see it..,.. i bet it 's not in the kernel
[05:50] <Buddhiya> alnokta: any idea
[05:50] <IseeIsee>  downloaded the full jdk using apt-get install sun-java5-*             and now when I'm doing java -version its still the old java 4.1
[05:50] <danieleboyo> alright
[05:51] <`Evil`> richiefrich, k, ubuntu also didnt say anything like new hardware, so any idea how to go about it? or should i just try tvtime w/o anything?
[05:51] <danieleboyo> when i get to the splash screen after the computer has booted from the cd, i clicked on install.  the graphical box that says loading kernel appeared for two seconds, and then my computer just rebooted

[05:53] <carthik> IseeIsee, not if you're not patient enough to see if someone who knows about what you are asking comes around
[05:53] <richiefrich> `Evil` i can suggest on thing.. d/l your own kernel from  hhtp://kernel.org and make your own.. i dont know how to change the ubuntu one.. i know u need the kernel-headers.. and iirc t he kerenl-sourrce
[05:53] <foo> Hm, I accidently moved all of /etc/apache2/sites-available to /etc/apache2/mods-available ... hm, how can I undo this or restore my apache set up ?
[05:54] <auMark> Can anyone help me with SSH. I can get in through LAN but would like to get into from Internet. iptables has it as ALLOW
[05:54] <Madpilot> danieleboyo, in the first menu you see when the Cd runs, one option is "Check This CD" or something similar - run that, make sure you got a good burn
[05:54] <danieleboyo> it is
[05:54] <danieleboyo> i have checked it
[05:54] <Vexmaster> andy_ play MAME
[05:54] <DAMNJACK> whick is the greatest tool to get some mp3
[05:54] <danieleboyo> i have even done a live boot on another computer
[05:54] <`Evil`> richiefrich, ah, now that stuff will whoosh past my head, plus i dont know how to

[05:55] <csk> hi all i am running dapper 6.06 and am finding that it all of a sudden freezes and the only way out is to switch off the computer and restart. anyone know what the problem might be?
[05:55] <arooni> from the terminal what program do i call to open a jpeg file
[05:55] <arooni> ?'
[05:55] <richiefrich> `Evil` most dont.. :(
[05:55] <Madpilot> danieleboyo, then the issue is this specific computer
[05:55] <Madpilot> ?
[05:55] <`Evil`> csk, Do you have AMD?
[05:55] <danieleboyo> but
[05:55] <csk> no intel centrino
[05:55] <Toma-> auMark: iirc, you need to change some ssh server ranges, by default it only allows via LAN, for security...
[05:55] <Bonez> I just installed xubuntu-desktop, is there any way I can set XFCE to the default (via ssh-term) and enable VNC so I can VNC in (i'm not physically near the PC)
[05:55] <danieleboyo> i have tried a previous version of ubuntu (hoary) and it works
[05:55] <`Evil`> csk, then dunno, my amd overheats and as it is has some issues with the board
[05:56] <arooni> folks what command should i use to open a jpeg file (from the terminal)?
[05:56] <arooni> so i can view the photo
[05:56] <fivre> is there any way to get apt-get to obey Synaptic's "Lock Version" thing, or similar?
[05:56] <knapper> Guest477: Sorry was watching a video clip and didn't see your responce.
[05:56] <alnokta> buddhiya, are you sure you booted to ubuntu ... if you really did so it will tell you that unable to mount root file system... and hangs ... of course GRUB will boot you didn't hurt it in anyway
[05:56] <csk> `Evil` do u suppose it might have something to do with the xserver?
[05:56] <Pelo> evening folks  is it possible to install and run a kde app on ubuntu(gnome) ?
[05:57] <runes> has anyone upgraded the kernel yet?
[05:57] <`Evil`> csk, no idea man, gotta ask the regulars here, i know why mine does, overheating, but thats an amd issue
[05:57] <carthik> arooni, are you a gnome user?
[05:57] <fivre> arooni: gksu gthumb <jpgpath>
[05:57] <IseeIsee> sudo: update-alterantives: command not found
[05:57] <alnokta> Pelo, yup
[05:57] <fivre> maybe
[05:57] <Buddhiya> alnokta: yes you are right , Thanks
[05:57] <csk> `Evil` sure thanks
[05:57] <arooni> carthik: whatever comes with ubuntu dapper (i'm a newbie)
[05:57] <carthik> IseeIsee, check spelling of alternatives
[05:57] <alnokta> provided that you satisfy dependencies
[05:57] <Pelo> alnokta  I've tried but I keep getting this message that I am missing kdelibs4 ? any thoughts ?
[05:58] <carthik> arooni, in general $gnome-open filename.jpg will open with the default image viewer
[05:58] <richiefrich> `Evil` i can spin u one.. but then angain.. idk what the card is.. i have your info.. lspci is all uy really need to make a kernel
[05:58] <carthik> arooni, you can use gnome-open to open files with the default app for that file type, in general
[05:58] <Bonez> I just installed xubuntu-desktop, what do i need to edit/run to make it the default enviroment instead of gnome?
[05:58] <alnokta> Pelo , what are you using to install?
[05:58] <Pelo> alnokta  deb package
[05:58] <arooni> carthik: ahh ok.. what is this 'gnome' thing.. a gui?
[05:59] <alnokta> Buddhiya, no problem
[05:59] <AOGuy1989> anyone know of a program tjhat lets me play itunes store stuff on linux
[05:59] <danieleboyo> madpilot, any suggestions?
[05:59] <Pelo> alnokta I've looked for everything kdelib and libkde in synaptic and still no go
[05:59] <alnokta> pelo, try using Synaptic ... if you have it
[05:59] <Flannel> !tell AOGuy1989 about itunes
[05:59] <carthik> GNOME is the desktop environment - a framework of sorts around which all the gui elements you see are built - sort of
[05:59] <auMark> Thanks Tomma-
[05:59] <Madpilot> danieleboyo, not really - sorry. Usually it's a bad CD when it won't boot - in your case I'm not sure
[05:59] <acad> i'm trying to make it so that i can copy a file using the file manager into /var/www and not get the 'permission denied error'. i have attempted to change umask in /etc/profile but it doesn't work except for from the terminal
[05:59] <acad> where is the right place?
[05:59] <AOGuy1989> !players
[05:59] <danieleboyo> madpilot, any idea where i could look?
[06:00] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[06:00] <knapper> Does anyone have a mx310?
[06:00] <Flannel> alnokta: What repositories do you have?
[06:00] <carthik> Bonez, next time you login chose the option to use XFCE always
[06:00] <alnokta> Pelo, what about your sources.list file?
[06:00] <Flannel> knapper: that's a mouse? You looking for extra buttons?
[06:00] <Pelo> acad  you probably need to be root,  do your changes from the terminal with sudo at the start fo your command
[06:00] <carthik> Bonez, change the "Session" to XFCE and choose it to be the default, that is.
[06:00] <Madpilot> danieleboyo, you might try the forums - ubuntuforums.org - but aside from that, I'm out of ideas for you. Sorry.
[06:00] <alnokta> Flannel: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sources.php
[06:01] <danieleboyo> madpilot, alright, well thanks alot!
[06:01] <acad> Pelo i did sudo /etc/profile and made the changes
[06:01] <knapper> Flannel: I have tried a dozen mx310 guides and I cannot get my buttons working correctly. (ie right now I have no forward-backward buttons)
[06:01] <acad> Pelo correction sudo vi /etc/profile
[06:01] <Pelo> alnokta I'll try to enable the rest of the repository
[06:01] <Pelo> acad  what are you trying to do again ?
[06:01] <Flannel> alnokta: have you updated your source cache
[06:02] <Flannel> knapper: tried this one? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[06:02] <csk> anyone know why dapper 6.06 suddenly freezes and how to overcome it?
[06:02] <alnokta> Flannel, thanks for asking but this isn't my problem....
[06:02] <runes> csk is this recent or has it always froze
[06:03] <Pelo> csk it's happend to me a couple of times using the 686 kernel, so I went back to the 386 one
[06:03] <csk> runes it has been happening for about a week
[06:03] <runes> any changes in hardware or updates?
[06:03] <csk> Pelo how do i revert back to 386?
[06:04] <Nekow42> today I ran memtest86+ and got 1 error... Ubuntu runs fine, however. Can I continue to ignore it or will this come back to haunt me?
[06:04] <knapper> Flannel: Can you give me that link again. I accidentally hit Shift and Backspace and XGL pooped.
[06:04] <runes> Nekow42, try the test several mre times
[06:04] <Flannel> knapper: tried this one? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[06:04] <runes> Nekow42, how many physical memory module sdo you ahve
[06:04] <Pelo> csk  use synaptic to search and install the "kernel image" for i386 intall them , reboot and select the right kernel when you boot,  you can uninstall the 686 images afterward
[06:04] <knapper> Flannel: Thanks I'll give it a shot.
[06:04] <harry> how do you uncomment something on the /etc/X11/xorg.conf?   I'm trying to install Flash MX with wine
[06:04] <acad> Pelo i want to set umask so that when i am logged in with the X server that i can drag and drop files into /var/www with the file manager
[06:04] <Nekow42> runes: 2 156 MB sticks
[06:05] <Pelo> acad  here is a tutorial on linux shell , that will probably help you a lot  http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[06:05] <runes> Nekow42, remvoe one retest if it passes  then do the same for the second
[06:05] <acad> Pelo - hehe you so don't get it...  thanks for trying though.
[06:05] <Pelo> acad  I don'T think you can do what you want
[06:05] <acad> Pelo, yea you can.
[06:05] <alnokta> what does that mean "X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166"?
[06:05] <runes> Nekow42, when you figure which module is failing replace it
[06:05] <acad> Pelo I'm just not sure how.
[06:06] <runes> Nekow42, the risk of not doing so is corruping your files
[06:06] <Nekow42> runes: That serious, eh?
[06:06] <acad> Pelo you have to set umask but profile is only executed when you login to a shell
[06:06] <Nekow42> runes: okay, well, when I get time...
[06:06] <acad> i think you can set umask in a startup script before x loads, but i'm not sure where it is set to begin with
[06:06] <IseeIsee> I'm installing an application which is asking for JDK path, how would I know where did the stupid OS installed the JDK ?
[06:06] <danieleboyo> anyone have any suggestions as to correct this situation:  when i get to the splash screen after the computer has booted from the cd, i clicked on install.  the graphical box that says loading kernel appeared for two seconds, and then my computer just rebooted
[06:07] <runes> Nekow42, try to do it asap unless you already have a backup of your data prior to the failing memory module
[06:07] <alnokta> any ideas?
[06:07] <Nekow42> runes: That serious, eh?
[06:07] <cjohnson> I'm having a problem with ndiswrapper and the automatic dhcp option in /etc/network/interfaces, the essid needs to be NETGEAR, but if i have 'wireless-essid NETGEAR' it is still no go, my guess is /etc/network/interfaces gets proccessed before ndiswrapper sets it up
[06:07] <harry> how do you uncomment something on the /etc/X11/xorg.conf?   I'm trying to install Flash MX with wine
[06:08] <Nekow42> runes: It's late now, and my finances might not allow me to get a new stick. I'll have to run at half-mem for a while, eh?
[06:09] <runes> Nekow42, I would better to be a bit sluggish than to lose info
[06:09] <Nekow42> runes: True, true....
[06:09] <Nekow42> runes: I'll find time to run two of those freaking ling scans....
[06:10] <Nekow42> *long
[06:10] <ldrhcp> hi. can anybody help to get dri working?
[06:11] <runes> Nekow42, check with the store you purchased the memory at cahnces are it may have a lifetime warranty..in that case all you need is the invoice and you ship it to the manufacturer
[06:12] <Nekow42> runes: that's where it gets tricky... Newegg purchase...

[06:17] <n3rdism> is it true there is no flash player for x86_64? o.O
[06:17] <Bonez> n3rdism: i have not booted into xfce yet though, still using gnome
[06:17] <IseeIsee> I'm installing an application which is asking for JDK path, how would I know where did the OS installed the JDK ?

[06:18] <knapper> Flannel: I either get: 1. The mouse wheel = forward/back. 2. Mouse 4 and 5 both act as mouse 1.
[06:19] <n3rdism> bonez: teh gnome is teh broken o.o;; lol just reinstall the packages with synaptic; i think that should do it
[06:19] <Flannel> IseeIsee: no, type "which java"
[06:19] <Ballsy> Hi there.  Complete Ubuntu newb here (former RHL user).  AMD Athlon 64, 512MB RAM, trying LiveCD of Dapper to try it out.  Tried amd64.iso and i386.iso, both fail after 'configuring some drivers.....ok'.  Checksums were right, burned disks at 4x....not finding much online help thus far.....ideas ?
[06:19] <Bonez> n3rdism: yeah ok ill give that a go :)
[06:19] <harry> how do you uncomment something on the /etc/X11/xorg.conf?   I'm trying to install Flash MX with wine
[06:20] <n3rdism> harry: #
[06:20] <Bonez> whats the easiest way to reinstall gnome
[06:20] <Bonez> from a command line pref
[06:20] <n3rdism> not sure on that one bonez
[06:21] <IseeIsee> Flannel it returns: /usr/bin/java but I'm talking about the JDK folder ?
[06:21] <Bonez> isn't there some apt-get reinstall command or something
[06:21] <arooni> hey folks: how can i 1) make my default swap partition be another physical drive 2) delete all old swap on my existing drive? (please provide answers for a noob)
[06:21] <Flannel> IseeIsee: what?  What about the JDK do you want?
[06:21] <n3rdism> bonez: im sure there is but i dont know it hehe ^^;
[06:22] <IseeIsee> Flannel: this is what I want:
[06:22] <IseeIsee> This application requires Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition (1.4 or later). Enter a path to a Java 2 SDK (For example: /user/jdk1.4/bin). You can type "exit" to cancel installation.
[06:22] <Flannel> IseeIsee: right, that path.
[06:22] <jjohn> bcm43xx
[06:22] <IseeIsee> Flannel that is an old path, I just updated my jdk to 1.5
[06:22] <Flannel> IseeIsee: then, it depends on how you upgraded
[06:23] <IseeIsee> Flannel: I upgraded using apt-get update sun-java5-*
[06:23] <abhinay> how can i change the name of the drive wich appears on my desktop ??
[06:23] <harry> n3rdism: isnt that commenting?? or uncommenting??

[06:24] <n3rdism> i dont have boot loader either o.o;;
[06:24] <lio1685> hi all
[06:25] <n3rdism> ballsy: when you first boot the cd run the cd test to make sure there arent any errors on it?
[06:25] <Flannel> harry: because the tutorial isn't designed for ubuntu maybe.
[06:25] <n3rdism> csk: are you looking to alter your bootloader?
[06:26] <_3fg> n3rdism: I got the flash thing
[06:26] <Ballsy> n3rdism, did that with the 1st CD I made (I'm at #3 now) ... and it DID find 4 checksum errors.  I redownloaded the .iso from another mirror, checksum was right, and it had the same problem....
[06:26] <n3rdism> 3fg: are you using 64bit dood?
[06:26] <csk> n3rdism - i just want to load bootloader and change something in my boot up screen
[06:26] <_3fg> n3rdism: nope
[06:26] <n3rdism> csk: what do you want to change?
[06:27] <harry> Flannel: it exactly said Ubuntu 6.06
[06:27] <n3rdism> 3fg: damn i think im right then; i cant get flash player for 64bit o.o;;

[06:28] <Ballsy> n3rdism, to clarify, the checksum of the .iso file was right...but when running the cd test it found 4 checksum errors.  Redownloaded the .iso from another mirror, the .iso's checksum was right, but same problems occurred.

[06:30] <Ballsy> solid_liq, isn't really a list in the format you want, but you can probably 'view source' and cut/paste em or summut.
[06:30] <lasindi[lappy] > Corporal_Dirge: it doesn't appear to
[06:30] <_3fg> n3rdism: nope, it's the mouse

[06:51] <CyDrive> How does SuSE compare to UBUNTU?
[06:51] <WillieDaPimp> richiefrich, if only the questions were even understandable
[06:51] <forevertheuni> solid_liq, that's for a wireless card right?
[06:51] <solid_liq> n3rdism: I prefer python myself :D
[06:51] <linuxgoober> rpm based versus deb based and kde is the default desktop instead of gnome
[06:51] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, Mplayer?
[06:51] <solid_liq> forevertheuni: yep
[06:51] <jjohn> solid_liq  Thanks
[06:51] <n3rdism> solid_liq: i've dabbled
[06:51] <solid_liq> np
[06:51] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, I can't find mplayer in my list..vlc I'll install now..xine doesn't play it..
[06:51] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, but my other distro runs fine
[06:52] <richiefrich> WillieDaPimp but willie thats what makes it so much fun
[06:52] <jshriver> greetings
[06:52] <forevertheuni> solid_liq, hmm..I have one of those..are that ones the 11Mbps?
[06:52] <solid_liq> jjohn: like I said, I *just* saw it on a website when you asked, so lucky timing :D
[06:52] <jshriver> I just installed XGL..
[06:52] <n3rdism> jshriver: worth it? lol
[06:52] <jshriver> so what are all the bells and whistles I hear about and how to I run,test, use them?
[06:52] <solid_liq> forevertheuni: they can be g cards too
[06:52] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, Well, VLC plays everything but MP4 and wmv for me. I use MPlayer for those 2.
[06:52] <forevertheuni> solid_liq, hmm I have a mini-pci in my mom's computer(that was from my laptop)
[06:53] <n3rdism> jshriver: from what i hear its a lot of work for not that much lol
[06:53] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, I can play in mplayer vlc xine noatun totem etc etc in my sourcemage install
[06:53] <solid_liq> forevertheuni: minipci is nicer than pccard :D
[06:53] <forevertheuni> so...it's a codec thing
[06:53] <jshriver> shrug well so far I dont notice any difference.
[06:53] <forevertheuni> solid_liq, except...you can't remove it with pc running :D
[06:53] <jshriver> but wanted to try out the eye candy.. just not sure where it is
[06:53] <n3rdism> jshriver: http://digitallifetv.com/blogs/digitallifetv/archive/2006/06/22/14230.aspx
[06:53] <solid_liq> forevertheuni: hehe :D
[06:54] <n3rdism> forevertheuni: its always a codec thing lol
[06:54] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, :/ dunno..vlc is finishing installing
[06:54] <solid_liq> you want eyecandy for KDE, try Baghira!!
[06:54] <jshriver> using gnome
[06:54] <jshriver> the one reason I wanted to use XGL is because of the cubic window changing...
[06:54] <jshriver> hwo do I do that?
[06:54] <WillieDaPimp> richiefrich, yea, but i mean...." What is a terminal " is insane
[06:54] <forevertheuni> vlc is working
[06:54] <forevertheuni> fine
[06:54] <knapper> Flannel: Can you help me do this guide? (mouse guide)
[06:54] <n3rdism> jshriver: turn on your distort screensaver; take a few hits of acid; enjoy.
[06:54] <forevertheuni> what's the package for mplayer?
[06:54] <jshriver> lol
[06:55] <Corporal_Dirge> What's eye candy? I keep hearing that.
[06:55] <richiefrich> WillieDaPimp then i think M$ will be a better solutionm
[06:55] <jshriver> things pleasing to the eye
[06:55] <jshriver> like graphic effects etc..
[06:55] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, umm, I used the synaptic gui and searched.
[06:55] <n3rdism> its the tightness in your pants when you first view a 64bit irc chat
[06:55] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, what?
[06:55] <jshriver> kinda confused.. is that all xgl is?
[06:56] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, I search with adept..but I only have kmplayer
[06:56] <jshriver> I could do OpenGL before.. even on my old debian system.. confused
[06:56] <jshriver> thought it was supposed to change how things worked in the UI
[06:56] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, I used the gui and search so I don't know the package name.
[06:56] <torpedo|dog> jshriver: xgl is using OpenGL for your windowing
[06:56] <jjohn> solid_liq   Did I PM you?
[06:56] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, ok..but I wanted xine to run it too
[06:56] <torpedo|dog> It's more than that, but that's the Cliffs Notes
[06:56] <Flannel> knapper: sorry, I don't even have a mouse.  heh.  I just know of that page
[06:57] <forevertheuni> it runs it in my other pc :/
[06:57] <forevertheuni> bahh going to bed now
[06:57] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, Tried installing the w32codecs package?
[06:57] <richiefrich> err who doesnt know what 'eye candy' is ?
[06:57] <n3rdism> jshriver: it puts screen on a 3d platform; makes windows have ceizures and generally bloats your epenis some side effects are unlisted. ask your doctor before recreational use
[06:57] <Corporal_Dirge> I don't know if that would help
[06:57] <forevertheuni> Corporal_Dirge, hmmm good idea...that's in what?multiverse?
[06:57] <Phoenix786> anybody know about the xorg.conf file?
[06:57] <Corporal_Dirge> yeah
[06:57] <forevertheuni> ok tnx
[06:57] <forevertheuni> going to bed
[06:58] <Ngtmagicks> Phoenix786, like what?
[06:58] <jshriver> how do you do the cube thing?
[06:58] <Phoenix786> multi monitor
[06:58] <Phoenix786> im trying to do dual monitor on one card
[06:58] <knapper> Flannel: We'll I got it all working, except... middle mouse is acting like right-mouse button (right click) and right click is doing nothing (acting like middle mouse- mouse 3)
[06:58] <Ngtmagicks> Phoenix786, sorry can't help you there.
[06:59] <knapper> Flannel: Any ideas on how to switch them?
[06:59] <Corporal_Dirge> forevertheuni, http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#multimedia
[06:59] <Phoenix786> thanks anyways
[06:59] <n3rdism> corporal_dirge: he logged
[06:59] <acad> i hate ubuntu
[06:59] <knapper> Flannel: Also, do you know how I can make it so that xmodmap is executed on boot instead of having to do it manually?
[06:59] <acad> it is so damm buggy
[06:59] <n3rdism> o.o;
[07:00] <WillieDaPimp> acad, then why use it ?>
[07:00] <jshriver> hrm transparency doesnt seem to work in the Terminal
[07:00] <acad> i don't
[07:00] <jshriver> still jerky, and displays the background rather than the underlying window
[07:00] <WillieDaPimp> acad, then why are you here?
[07:00] <acad> because i'm checking it out
[07:00] <n3rdism> trollllllllllllll
[07:00] <WillieDaPimp> acad, what do you use?
[07:00] <n3rdism> acad, go to bed ^^
[07:00] <Ngtmagicks> acad so instead of insulting off the bat...
[07:00] <acad> no, i'm just frustrated because i discovered a bug * that has been confirmed *
[07:00] <jshriver> or is the terminal transparency only in a specific term app?
[07:00] <acad> sorry, not meaning to troll
[07:01] <Corporal_Dirge> acad, I found a couple too... in Windows.
[07:01] <acad> everybody has issues no matter what os they use
[07:01] <acad> yea,  they all do
[07:01] <Ngtmagicks> acad only in certain apps
[07:01] <Flannel> acad: so, it's been confirmed.  It'll get fixed.
[07:01] <n3rdism> exactly
[07:01] <acad> as i said, i'm frustrated,  i don't really hate ubuntu
[07:01] <acad> yea
[07:01] <n3rdism> you hurt its feelings man; appologize or youll have a tribe of angry nigerians after you
[07:02] <Corporal_Dirge> acad, help us find more ;)
[07:02] <WillieDaPimp> acad, i use gentoo and i have hardly any bugs, and if there is any that pop out i squash them immediatly
[07:02] <ivis> please help me i remove gnome panel when i minimize windows i don't see he
[07:02] <ivis> help
[07:02] <acad> it has to do with umask in profile, apprently this is a bug as it only works with tt2,3 or something
[07:02] <acad> WillianDaPimp my issue is that i'm trying to help someone else ubunut up and running and it is being a pain
[07:03] <ivis> Help plz
[07:03] <ivis> please help me i remove gnome panel when i minimize windows i don't see he.
[07:03] <Corporal_Dirge> he?
[07:04] <n3rdism> ivis: i would suggest a reboot
[07:04] <ivis> i try
[07:04] <Flannel> ivis: go to the bottom of your screen, right click "add panel" then on that panel right click "add to panel"
[07:05] <dasGewitter> Can anyone help me with wireless PPPoE setup?
[07:05] <n3rdism> wireless *cries*
[07:06] <dasGewitter> haha, well, it shouldn't be too hard. I'm just not understanding why I'm not getting internet access
[07:06] <Ngtmagicks> wireless pppoe?
[07:06] <dasGewitter> Alright, so I worded that wrong.
[07:06] <n3rdism> ok youll need 2 dixie cups and a really long piece of string
[07:07] <dasGewitter> The adsl router does the pppoe auth, I have a wireless router hooked to one of the ports.
[07:07] <dasGewitter> The wireless ip is set to 192.168.2.1, and the adsl router to 192.168.1.1
[07:07] <dasGewitter> I connect to it fine, just no internet access
[07:08] <linopil> dasGewitter: so wireless is the problem ?
[07:08] <n3rdism> so its probably in between then
[07:08] <dasGewitter> correct.
[07:08] <Ngtmagicks> and your using what auth and is the router setup to allow internet access to that ip and mac address?
[07:08] <n3rdism> try resetting the modem
[07:08] <Corporal_Dirge> How do I set up SCIM to use multiple languages?
[07:08] <linopil> any security defined
[07:08] <dibblego> I have an old Compaq, and when I boot the Dapper CD I have no mouse or keyboard - simple problem?
[07:09] <n3rdism> dibblego: usb or ps2?
[07:09] <dibblego> ps2
[07:09] <n3rdism> ug
[07:09] <dasGewitter> ngtmagicks: Well, I was trying to add a second DHCP client, so that the wireless could use DHCP
[07:10] <dibblego> n3rdism, why?
[07:10] <Ngtmagicks> dasGewitter, so your using dhcp from the dsl to the router?  or so that the wireless could assign dhcp?
[07:10] <Corporal_Dirge> Who asked the mouse question about the MX-whatever?
[07:10] <n3rdism> dibblego: i dont have much experience with ps2 i/o >.<
[07:11] <Corporal_Dirge> Probably a xorg issue.
[07:11] <Flannel> Corporal_Dirge: knapper did, mx1300 or something like that.
[07:11] <dasGewitter> Should the wireless router A) list Internet Connection Type be set to PPPoE B) Should the adsl router allow PPPoE pass-through
[07:11] <Bonez> i have a fat32 partition mounted but i can not read/write to it from within nautilus, but i can read/write from a terminal. anyone know how to fix?
[07:11] <Corporal_Dirge> knapper, I found something: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#enable-5button-mouse
[07:12] <dasGewitter> As of now the wireless obtains an IP automatically.
[07:12] <Ngtmagicks> yes. to both,  the router should be both pppoe auth and dhcp.  the adsl terminal should allow pppoe pass through without any auth or connection
[07:12] <n3rdism> bonez: did you try /etc/fstab permissions?
[07:12] <Bonez> n3rdism: sorry, mistake in my initial text. i can read it but not write it from within nautilus.
[07:12] <dasGewitter> Should the wireless router be allowed to run DHCP?
[07:12] <Bonez> n3rdism: yes i have checked them, this is my fstab line
[07:12] <Bonez> /dev/hda6      /media/d    vfat  codepage=850,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0 0 0
[07:12] <Ngtmagicks> dasGewitter, no
[07:13] <wf> Anyone alive in here?
[07:13] <Bonez> n3rdism: have also tried this: /dev/hda6       /media/d    vfat  rw,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=0000 0 0
[07:13] <Ngtmagicks> dasGewitter, sorry the router yes use that to assign dhcp
[07:13] <n3rdism> see the "rw"
[07:13] <Bonez> n3rdism: yes
[07:13] <n3rdism> bonez
[07:14] <Corporal_Dirge> wf = wannabe fansubs? =P
[07:14] <n3rdism> bonez: add an x to that, but im not 100%
[07:14] <Bonez> n3rdism: it can't be a fstab problem because i can read/write through the terminal
[07:14] <n3rdism> bonez: lets check the links the bot provides to make sure lol its been a while
[07:14] <Bonez> n3rdism: i just can't write using nautilus or thunar
[07:14] <Bonez> ok cool :)
[07:14] <n3rdism> !fstab
[07:14] <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
[07:14] <ic56> Bonez: if you can do something in terminal but not in the GUI, then the problem cannot be with the mounting.  Unless, of course, you are mistaken about being able to do it in terminal :-)
[07:15] <buzzed> any good white box laptops?
[07:15] <n3rdism> fansubs lol
[07:15] <n3rdism> google it
[07:15] <Corporal_Dirge> wf is also a subbing group for anime.
[07:15] <Ngtmagicks> Corporal_Dirge, ?
[07:15] <Bonez> ic56: yes that is what i was trying to explain to n3rdism :)
[07:15] <wf> ah o.k.
[07:16] <wf> well that's not me. :)
[07:16] <Bonez> ic56: the partition is mounted ok, but i just can't write to it from within a gui
[07:16] <Shak-> how does one change the default /var/www document root path to something else in apache?
[07:16] <Corporal_Dirge> just thought you might be a fan of fansubs...
[07:16] <Bonez> ic56: and it's weird, because i have another fat32 partition which works fine! (read&write in GUI)
[07:16] <ic56> Bonez: are you sure you're accessing the same thing in Nautilus as you are in terminal?  Perhaps one is a symlink to something while the other isn't. or perhaps they're completely different things?  GUIs can be confusing.
[07:16] <Bonez> ic56: 100% sure... it's mounted in /media/d
[07:16] <Bonez> i can rm files or nano files in /media/d
[07:17] <ic56> Bonez: another thing to keep in mind is how nautilus decides to display things
[07:17] <wf> @shak > change your documentroot in your httpd.conf file
[07:17] <Bonez> but if I try to do it through nautilus or thuner i get no write access
[07:17] <Shak-> wf: my httpd.conf file is completely empty
[07:17] <Bonez> ic56: when I open /media/d in nautilus i get a screen full of padlocks :(
[07:17] <Darth_X> are the new apple macbook laptops worth buying?
[07:17] <n3rdism> darth_x: get a pro
[07:18] <Shak-> wf: im using apache2
[07:18] <dibblego> n3rdism, are there any logs or something I could look at?
[07:18] <n3rdism> dibblego: im sorry i forgot what was going on lol
[07:18] <cpk2> Shak-: pretty simple to just apt-get apache
[07:18] <ic56> Bonez: gnome-conf contains some settings (which I don't fully understand yet) which tell it when to display an icon for a mounted filesystem and when not.  These are *magic* icons that appear not because the corresponding objects are in the directory being viewed but because the config says Nautilus should display them.  Perhaps the malfunction is with the config of those things?
[07:18] <dibblego> n3rdism, my PS2 mouse on my old compaq machine won't work when I boot with the Dapper CD
[07:19] <Darth_X> what is the difference between regular and pro? Apart from the pro version being way too expensive, like twice the price of other laptops with same guts inside
[07:19] <n3rdism> !ps2
[07:19] <ubotu> I know nothing about ps2 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:19] <Ngtmagicks> ic56 sounds like what I'm seeing almost.
[07:19] <Shak-> cpk2: if I do that will my apache2 uninstall and apache 1.3 install?
[07:19] <Bonez> ic56: not too sure, however even when I run nautlius or thunar as sudo, I still can not write to the partition, and it tells me in the permissions that I am the owner of the files... go figure? :P
[07:19] <n3rdism> dibblego: sorry bout that im pretty out of it; ill look into it
[07:19] <cpk2> Shak-: no, i have apache2 and apache
[07:19] <dibblego> n3rdism, no problem thanks
[07:20] <mboso> i'm trying to install compiz, but apt is having trouble finding the version of libsvg-cairo it needs. i'm using deb http://xgl.compiz.info/ dapper main as my repository
[07:20] <ic56> Bonez: another possibility is that Nautilus is somehow not up to date with teh state of your filesystems.  Try shuttting down X and restarting it.
[07:20] <roostishaw> anyone, what command do i use to recursivly give read/write/excute permissions to me, the current user?
[07:20] <Bonez> ic56: been there, done that :( the only other thing i have had suggested to me is to boot into windows and run a chkdsk
[07:20] <Shak-> cpk2: well, how can I modify the document root on apache2?
[07:20] <Shak-> cpk2: I tried changing the DocumentRoot option in sites-available/default, but that gave me an error page in my browser apge
[07:21] <wf> Could anyone tell me how could I figure out if ubuntu can see my hd using the live cd?
[07:21] <n3rdism> dibblego: found an interesting article http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/2037
[07:21] <n3rdism> dibblego: googles yer friend :)
[07:21] <dibblego> n3rdism, cheers
[07:21] <roostishaw> anyone, what command do i use to recursivly give read/write/excute permissions to me, the current user?
[07:21] <Ngtmagicks> wf is the live cd not automounting your hdd?
[07:21] <ic56> Bonez: chkdsk is a good housekeeping plan.  But it wouldn't explain this behaviour.  Nautilus shouldn't really know anything about filesystem corruption.
[07:21] <roostishaw> on a specific folder
[07:21] <wf> euhm I don't see it showing up anywhere. :S
[07:21] <cpk2> Shak-: i think apache.conf
[07:21] <cpk2> err i mean apache2.conf
[07:22] <Bonez> ic56: yes this is a good point. I am thinking of moving all data over to another drive and reformatting it as ext3 anyway, so maybe i'll just take the easy way out and do that? :)
[07:22] <n3rdism> alright folks; im off to pass out lol. i cant believe oblivion still isnt done >.>
[07:22] <Ngtmagicks> wf: oh..nothing in admin>drives?
[07:22] <RawSewage> I have an Audacity question:  how do I install more NYquist plug ins?  I put them in the plug-ins folder, restarted Audacity, but they didnt appear in Audacity.  Does anyone know how to add more PLUGINS
[07:22] <Shak-> cpk2: I cant find any parameter in that conf file
[07:22] <roostishaw> anyone, what command do i use to recursivly give read/write/excute permissions to a specific folder to me, the current user?
[07:23] <ic56> Bonez: spend some time in gconf-editor looking at settings that affect Nautilus.  See if you can make some sense of them.  The GNOME documentation might help, though I haven't read much of it and cannot affirm it will
[07:23] <wf> hm grmbl...     /me noob big-time. :(
[07:23] <Bonez> ic56: thanks for your help!
[07:24] <ic56> Bonez: yw and good luck!
[07:24] <wf> But it says it's inaccesible...
[07:24] <cpk2> Shak-: the readme seems to suggest to just add it in conf.d
[07:25] <RawSewage> Is anyone typing an answer to my question, or am I wasting my time as usual
[07:25] <Corporal_Dirge> RawSewage, I just sat down, but I suggest patience.
[07:26] <linux_user400354> i cant get my ftp server to work. its frustrating because ive tried many things. it works fine for lan use, but on the internet it doesnt. i think it could be because of my isp blocking certain things even though they told me in an email they dont. ive tried changing the port number, but theres no option that i can find for changing the ftp-data port. does anyone know a solution to this?
[07:26] <linux_user400354> ive tried both vsftpd and proftpd
[07:26] <cpk2> linux_user400354: you might need to configure your router as well if you have one
[07:26] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, I dont think anyone knows the answer. its an obscure question
[07:26] <linux_user400354> cpk2, its configured with port forwarding
[07:26] <Corporal_Dirge> RawSewage, Rebooted the comp yet?
[07:27] <linux_user400354> RawSewage, what else would someone need to know?
[07:27] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, I restarted X
[07:27] <RawSewage> I'll reboot
[07:27] <RawSewage> Thanks
[07:27] <Corporal_Dirge> just to be sure, I would too.
[07:27] <RawSewage> ok
[07:28] <wf> It's a real seagate of about 595 MB. :D       Had to install an old one, since my s-ata drive freaked out. :(       But now I want to check if there's anything left on that hd that's worthy of not formatting for ubuntu.       It says it's inaccessible and is vfat filesystem. Can I see files somehow or not?
[07:28] <cpk2> linux_user400354: you check in services to make sure the port was in there?
[07:28] <mborohovski> hey guys
[07:29] <mborohovski> whats the best way to get my ipod working under ubuntu? i mean, it shows up...but is there a way to sync it in rhythmbox? or an easy to to sync it otherwise?
[07:30] <Ballsy> linux_user, do you have logging enabled for your FTP server?  If so, anything being written to it ?  How about a 'netstat -na' on the server when you're trying to connect to it with a client...are you making it to the server at least ?
[07:30] <ic56> : ftp-data is normally outbound.  Ie the problem is with the remote clients being behind firewalls.  Are the remote clients using passive or active ftp?
[07:30] <ic56> linux_user400354: ftp-data is normally outbound.  Ie the problem is with the remote clients being behind firewalls.  Are the remote clients using passive or active ftp?
[07:30] <Shak-> cpk2: conf.d is a folder.
[07:31] <mborohovski> !ipod
[07:31] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[07:31] <cpk2> i know add your own file to it
[07:31] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, I rebooted.  no luck
[07:31] <cpk2> thats what the readme seems to be saying
[07:31] <mborohovski> i mean, gtkpod seems to be a pain in the ass, is all.
[07:32] <Ballsy> I'm trying the Live CD of Dapper on AMD Athlon 64 machine with horrible luck.  Tried the adm64.iso and i386.iso...checksums for both ISOs were good, but when I ran the 'disk check' during the initial Ubuntu startup, it found checksum mismatches.  When trying to fire up the Live CD it dies after 'configuring some drivers...ok'.  Have burned 4 CDs now, using DVD Decryptor and Nero...no luck with either.
[07:32] <Corporal_Dirge> Are you trying to add in files you programmed or the package?
[07:32] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, hmm...  could be a permissions thing
[07:32] <_smd_> Is there anyone here from the peg?
[07:32] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, I'll try that
[07:33] <RawSewage> I have a folder of ny files I downloaded
[07:33] <CarlFK> Ballsy: do you know how to mount -o loop the .iso?
[07:33] <Corporal_Dirge> 2.29-6 is a package already. just sudo apt-get nyquit if you're trying to get the package
[07:33] <Shak-> cpk2: add a file in that folder called what, containing what?
[07:33] <Ballsy> CarlFK, native OS is currently XP Pro :/
[07:33] <cpk2> or you could just try adding DocumentRoot rootlocationhere to your httpd.conf
[07:33] <Corporal_Dirge> err nyquist
[07:33] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, I dont think thats the same
[07:33] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, Audacity has a built-in thing
[07:34] <Ballsy> CarlFK, but to answer your question, no.
[07:34] <No1Viking> !firefox
[07:34] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[07:34] <wf> Ngtmagicks: It is in admin>drives but I can't see any files, could you guide me a bit?
[07:34] <CarlFK> Ballsy: there is a util for XP ... um...
[07:34] <shinobi2> how do i configure wifi?
[07:34] <Corporal_Dirge> Nyquist is a sound synthesis and composition language based on a Lisp syntax. Nyquist is an elegant and powerful system based on functional programming.
[07:34] <linux_user400354> ic56, does internet explorer and mozilla firefox use passive ftp or active ftp?
[07:34] <kakalto> is there a command (not shortcut) to restart X?
[07:35] <CarlFK> Ballsy: my thought was to mount the iso, cd into it and md5sum -check the fiels before burning to disk
[07:35] <kakalto> I know CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE restarts X, but is there a command for the same thing?
[07:35] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, Audacity has a built in  Nyquist thing.  It already comes with 6
[07:35] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, but I'll install that nyquist anyway, and try it
[07:35] <shinobi2> does ubuntu have more apps? i checked the add/remove menu, there's no C, Java compiler
[07:35] <tritium> shinobi2: sure there is
[07:35] <greggory> can someone help me
[07:35] <CarlFK> kakalto: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:35] <RawSewage> I know this wont work though
[07:35] <linux_user400354> Ballsy, I can make it to the ftp server. Anyone in the lan can make it to the ftp server without problems.
[07:36] <ic56> linux_user400354: I don't know.  These days, passive is the default in most clients, because it allows the client to live behind simpler firewall rules.
[07:36] <greggory> i dont know if any has used lkl or not but im having problems locating and using the keymap file
[07:36] <shinobi2> tritium: why it isn't on the list?
[07:36] <kakalto> CarlFK: of course. *hits self* thanks.

[07:36] <tritium> shinobi2: ^^
[07:36] <ic56> linux_user400354: active ftp is the original standard.
[07:36] <_smd_> is anyone here that live in winnipeg?
[07:36] <Ballsy> CarlFK, oh....umm....are you thinking of DaemonTools or something?  The idea sounds famil....
[07:36] <ic56> linux_user400354: what's between your LAN and your ISP?  Is there no firewall at all?
[07:36] <wf> I live in Hte Netherlands. :p :D
[07:37] <wf> The that is
[07:37] <_smd_> wf: that doesnt help me
[07:37] <wf> I know, I'm just saying it to maybe get some response off of people living in The Netherlands as well... :p sorry
[07:38] <greggory> can someone help me with a keymap file and how to use it with lkl?
[07:38] <dasGewitter> yeahhh....so about that pppoe mess
[07:38] <Darth_X> does anyone live in winterpeg?
[07:38] <_smd_> wf: thats completely fine.  Do not say sorry
[07:38] <shinobi2> can someone show me how to config my wifi?  the interface is sit0
[07:38] <wf> okay.   sorry.   :D
[07:38] <Ballsy> Darth_X, if I recall correctly, several hundred thousand people live in Winterpeg, so I'd say yes.
[07:38] <Ballsy> (well, tens of thousands anyhow)
[07:39] <linux_user400354> Ballsy, burn at a slower speed and if possible use another drive to burn the cds
[07:39] <_smd_> wf: now that deserves a
[07:39] <_smd_> :p
[07:39] <RawSewage> Corporal_Dirge, oh well, thanks for trying.  I'll have to do some more Google research I guess
[07:39] <mborohovski> anyone use anything other than gtkpod for linux + ipod? id love using rhythmbox...anyone?
[07:39] <Darth_X> my brother wants to move to winnipeg, but I'm not sure what is out there. I'd prefer to stay here ;)
[07:39] <Ballsy> linux_user, tried at 4x in DVD Decryptor, and 10x in Nero to no avail.
[07:39] <Madpilot> Darth_X, ask on #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-ca
[07:40] <x_or> Does anyone here know how I can reinstall postgresql and restore the configuration files and data directories?  I deleted them and am unable to restore now.
[07:40] <wf> anyways,       no-one in here who can guide me through the process of finding files on a vfat inaccesible hd?
[07:40] <Bone> hey some assitance please
[07:40] <Ballsy> Darth_X, I drove through it on my move to Calgary.  The downtown looked pretty modern..........but that's about it.
[07:40] <wf> x_or: If you deleted them you deleted them, right?
[07:40] <_smd_> It is cold here.  But I messed up my computer some how.   And what I did to fix my res problem worked.  And now it doesn't and I am IRATE
[07:40] <Bone> i could have sworn there were different uBunu flavors, i wanna get ubuntu, the breeezy flavor( powered by apt-get) but i can't find it on the site
[07:40] <linux_user400354> kakalto, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:40] <_smd_> what fixed my rex probel mlast time i mean
[07:41] <greggory> !lkl
[07:41] <ubotu> I know nothing about lkl - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:41] <Bone> anyone? please help
[07:41] <wf> Bone: version 5.10 is the breezy version I believe
[07:41] <Bone> ok
[07:41] <wf> Breezy Badger
[07:41] <nightvision> Good evening
[07:41] <Madpilot> Bone, the names - Breezy Badger, Dapper Drake, etc - are for versions, not flavours. The lastest version is Dapper Drake
[07:42] <nightvision> I have an odd problem happening with Firefox
[07:42] <Madpilot> Bone, and all versions & flavours are powered by apt-get...
[07:42] <Bone> http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[07:42] <Bone> there only 6.06
[07:42] <Madpilot> Bone, yes, get 6.06, it's the latest
[07:42] <Bone> buti need breezy version, the one with aptget
[07:42] <Darth_X> are there enough animal names for all required revisions of ubuntu?
[07:43] <Se7h> Bone o.0 apt-get comes with every version
[07:43] <Flannel> Darth_X: I'm sure there will be.
[07:43] <Bone> well, so 6.06, is taht breezy, or what wahts the dela, i thoght there were differnt flavors of ubuntu
[07:43] <Madpilot> Bone, all versions use apt-get, and Breezy (5.10) is now outdated - Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) is current
[07:43] <greggory> dapper drake
[07:43] <wf> So Windows Virtual Fat  cannot be accessed by ubuntu?       anyone a reply? any reply?
[07:43] <linux_user400354> ic56, there's a configured firewall on my computer. ive disabled the firewall and still no luck. there is a router and modem. the modem may be blocking ports, but i havent figured out a way to get into it after trying many things to do that also. the router shouldnt be blocking any ports with port fowarding enabled.
[07:43] <Bone> ohh, alright, so there is no more falvors 6.06 has everything
[07:43] <Flannel> wf: yes, fat can be.
[07:44] <Flannel> Bone: er, there are flavors, there's ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, edubuntu.  they all have apt-get
[07:44] <Bone> am i right?
[07:44] <Madpilot> Bone, there's still several flavours - Ubuntu uses the Gnome desktop; Kubuntu uses KDE, etc
[07:44] <Bone> ok then
[07:44] <cyphase> http://www.worldjumpday.org/
[07:44] <wf> But I would then have to install extra programs, right?
[07:44] <Bone> thanks im going to download uBuntu
[07:44] <Flannel> wf: nope
[07:44] <Bone> i love linux
[07:44] <linux_user400354> mborohovski, "apt-cache search ipod"
[07:44] <Bone> window sjust sucks shit really bad
[07:44] <ic56> linux_user400354: port forwarding enabled?  That screams trouble!
[07:44] <delgaudio> someone had problems wiv mysqld.sock in installation of mysql?
[07:44] <nightvision> is anyone familiar with the firefox error, "The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
[07:44] <wf> Flannel: So how would I go about it then?
[07:45] <axa-axa> Can someone please tell me what is the difference between ubuntu versions for i386 and amd64, is it only kernel, kernel and sys. libraries or something third?
[07:45] <ic56> linux_user400354: your LAN is using a private IP space then?
[07:45] <axa-axa> I'm asking this because, I have amd64 and have ubuntu for i386 and kubuntu for amd64, but kubuntu doesnt have that many packages as ubnuntu (gcc, g++...)
[07:45] <axa-axa> so Im intereset wheter I can install packages from ubuntu-i386 disc or do I have to download ubuntu-amd64.
[07:45] <greggory> can someone help me configure a keymap file for lkl? (keylogger)
[07:45] <Madpilot> axa-axa, Kubuntu & Ubuntu have identical packages available...
[07:45] <Bone> ok, im downloading uBuntu
[07:45] <Bone> yay
[07:45] <Ignite_> :D
[07:45] <Bone> i did have debian gnu/linux
[07:45] <Bone> but it was kinda hard
[07:45] <linux_user400354> wf, why is the hdd with vfat inaccessible?
[07:45] <dibblego> can you install ubuntu-server from the ubuntu-desktop CD?
[07:45] <Bone> u have to configure everything ur self
[07:45] <nightvision> it crashes when I load a site with flash
[07:46] <Flannel> wf: with 'mount', man mount for more information
[07:46] <greggory> can someone help me configure a keymap file for lkl? (keylogger)
[07:46] <Flannel> dibblego: no.  The alternate CD though
[07:46] <dibblego> Flannel, ok cheers
[07:46] <wf> Flannel: thnx, I'll look at it.
[07:46] <axa-axa> Madpilot, I've assumed that myself, but still I cannot find packages  (like gcc) on Kubuntu CD while they are  on Ubuntu CD
[07:46] <linux_user400354> Bone, google it. theres many mirrors that also have ubuntu iso files.
[07:46] <MarsRouter> hi
[07:46] <nightvision> hey
[07:46] <Madpilot> axa-axa, ah, the different CDs might have different contents; the repositories are the same, though
[07:47] <Flannel> axa-axa: just enable the online repositories
[07:47] <MarsRouter> i want to create a network bridge on ubuntu
[07:47] <nightvision> is anyone familiar with the firefox error, "The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
[07:47] <axa-axa> I cannot enable online repositories bevause I need to compile driver for my modem, and to compile it I need gcc, make, kernel headers...
[07:47] <nightvision> it crashes when I load a site with flash
[07:48] <linux_user400354> wf, yes it can. why not?
[07:48] <_smd_> what i did last time was go : sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf     and added in the resolutions i wanted. than saved and it never worked this time.  So i am on low res and feel like i should be blind right now
[07:48] <nightvision> I thought this was an uncommon error...
[07:49] <x_or> How do I force a  apt-get remove --purge?
[07:49] <linux_user400354> ic56, whats better than port forwarding?
[07:49] <Flannel> _smd_: use gksudo next time, did you restart X?
[07:49] <Flannel> _smd_: (gksudo vs sudo won't cause it to not change though)
[07:49] <axa-axa> But ok, I guess I can cope with that, my main question is what is the difference between say i386 and amd64 version, is it only kernel or something else in addition?
[07:49] <galmaegu> bbq
[07:49] <galmaegu> *bbq
[07:49] <farous> nightvision: i have problems with firefox and flash too am using opera know no fuss
[07:49] <nightvision> hhmm
[07:49] <nightvision> nice
[07:49] <_smd_> I did restart X
[07:49] <nightvision> is there an apt-get command to install opera?
[07:50] <ic56> linux_user400354: are remote clients able to get to the ftp server's password prompt?  If not, then your problem occurs before the issues surrounding data transfer (where active and passive ftp diverge).  If remote clients are able to login but are unable to get a list of files or download a file, then the problem is with the data transfer mechanisms.
[07:50] <Madpilot> nightvision, look for it in Application->Add/Remove Apps
[07:50] <_smd_> I did EXACTLY what I did last time to make the res higher and it never worked
[07:50] <nightvision> okay
[07:50] <nightvision> thanks
[07:50] <farous> nightvision: go to opera website and add the extra repos for opera
[07:50] <linux_user400354> ic56, im not sure what private ip space is. computers on my lan have ips not visible to the internet like all lans do. if thats what you are talking about, then yes.
[07:50] <_smd_> I messed it up some how when i wad trying to get my new ISP to work I dont know what I fd up
[07:50] <axa-axa> Can someone please tell me what is the difference between ubuntu versions for i386 and amd64, is it only kernel, kernel and sys. libraries or something third?
[07:50] <Madpilot> farous, there is now an Ubuntu-specific repo for Opera
[07:51] <farous> Madpilot: great did not not that thanx for the info
[07:51] <Flannel> axa-axa: yeah, just the kernel.
[07:51] <ic56> linux_user400354: there is no alternative to port forwarding, short of getting more IP addresses.  However, port forwarding complicates the running of servers that use multiple ports -- like ftp.
[07:51] <Flannel> axa-axa: well, 64bit has some other differences,
[07:51] <Bonez> what is a good backup program for gnome?
[07:52] <taigeR> how does main,restricted, universe, and multiverse differe?
[07:52] <Flannel> !tell taigeR about repositories
[07:52] <Flannel> taigeR: read the components bit

[07:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about backups - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:52] <axa-axa> Flannel, like... ? I want to know whether I can install i386 version and then just install (from repositiory) kernel for amd64.
[07:53] <Bonez> axa-axa: install linux-k7
[07:53] <Ballsy> How can I send an kernel param when firing up LIveCD (ie. acpi=off) ?  IS there a break sequence that will let me do so ?
[07:53] <johnsandman> I need a little help i can in my server, but server cannot connect the internet
[07:53] <Bonez> johnsandman: what does ifconfig tell you? do you have an IP?
[07:53] <lmosher> How do I install java to work with Firefox? I just installed java via 'apt-get sun-java5-bin'?
[07:54] <johnsandman> yes i have a IP because i can remote
[07:54] <taigeR> what's a recommended sources.list?
[07:54] <farous> lmosher: you need sun-java-plugin
[07:54] <lmosher> farous: I don't see that in adept?
[07:54] <ic56> linux_user400354: by private IP addresses I mean the reserved ranges: 10.x , 172.16-31.x , and 192.168.x  If you want to run an ftp server while using such addresses, you need to learn a lot more about how these protocols work.
[07:54] <Bonez> johnsandman: do you have a default-gateway set? what sort of internet connection do you have?
[07:55] <johnsandman> bonez>using ssh 192.168.1.40
[07:55] <DShepherd> I am trying to run tomboy, but I get this error -->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18339  does anyone know what the cause might be. Thanks for the assistance
[07:55] <johnsandman> bonez yes even that i have
[07:55] <linux_user400354> ic56, people are able to get to the password prompt if they use ftp in bash, but using other ways does not work. thats weird.
[07:55] <farous> lmosher: i donot have my ubuntu box on now so can not check it for you now sorry
[07:56] <johnsandman> bonez iface is set in the right order gateway is 192.168.1.1
[07:56] <ic56> linux_user400354: by other ways you mean mozilla?
[07:57] <linux_user400354> ic56, i can temporarily use dmz instead of port forwarding. then once i have that working, i can i know the only other thing i will have to worry about is port forwarding and that shouldnt be too difficult.
[07:57] <taigeR> what's a recommended sources.list?
[07:57] <farous> taigeR: check easysource

[08:00] <linux_user400354> ic56, i tell most people to use a web browser, either mozilla or IE in most cases because they do not have ftp clients.
[08:00] <johnsandman> >bonez> but can stil work from other local machine
[08:00] <ic56> linux_user400354: running an ftp *server* behind port forwarding is *complicated*.  Google for: ftp-data proxy firewall.  Then spend a few days studying.  You'll need to learn a bit about how IP works

[08:00] <abbot45> CarNagE__, what do I need to put in there?
[08:00] <CarNagE__> If correct information regarding the partition is provided there, you can do it that way
[08:00] <linux_user400354> wf mkdir
[08:01] <CarNagE__> Else, you have to specify it with mount
[08:01] <wf> Hm I tried md... New to unix_sys... :S
[08:01] <wf> And I tried makedir. :p
[08:01] <wf> But not mkdir...
[08:02] <abbot45> ok.  what information to i need to put there if i want to mount that drive?  also have it auto mount on boot.
[08:02] <CarNagE__> That depends on the type of the partition :)

[08:03] <wf> linux_user400354: Is your message to me in red only because you start w/ my name or is it something else?
[08:03] <CarNagE__> You can only mount partitions, not hard disks

[08:03] <CarNagE__> /dev/hdb is the second attached E-IDE devide
[08:04] <wf> okay. thanks.
[08:04] <bahadirt> goodmorning guys
[08:04] <linux_user400354> ic56, id rather ask a lug mailing list and linuxquestions.org. i dont have a few extra days to spend aimlessly searching for answers
[08:05] <bahadirt> I got problems running xserver on ubuntu
[08:05] <ic56> linux_user400354: ok. have fun!
[08:05] <Ballsy> linux_user, what kind of router do you have?
[08:05] <bahadirt> a downloaded iso installation coming with X or not ?
[08:05] <linux_user400354> Ballsy, 2 routers, dlink and linksys
[08:05] <Flannel> hangfire: which iso did you download?
[08:05] <hangfire> regular ubuntu
[08:05] <humanpersonman> bahadirt, what was the name of the iso
[08:05] <Flannel> hangfire: er, sorry.  wrong person.
[08:06] <Ballsy> linux_user, the dlink may/should have a config section called 'Virtual Servers'....have you played with it?
[08:06] <bahadirt> ubuntu 6.06 server
[08:06] <Flannel> hangfire: sorry, no idea how I got you. from bahadirt ;)
[08:06] <linux_user400354> Ballsy, yes, its the same as port forwarding
[08:06] <bahadirt> I tried "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[08:06] <humanpersonman> yes, when it boot, it gives you a command prompt right?
[08:06] <Flannel> bahadirt: nope, no graphical system in that.
[08:06] <wf> So, "mount: /dev/hda already mounted or /mnt/huh busy
[08:06] <wf> "       If I just type mount my mounted device is not there so I guess /mnt/huh is busy, how can this be?
[08:06] <bahadirt> package ot found
[08:06] <hangfire> np
[08:06] <DShepherd> I am trying to run tomboy, but I get this error -->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18339  does anyone know what the cause might be. Thanks for the assistance
[08:06] <bahadirt> what shld I do now ?
[08:06] <Flannel> bahadirt: did you enable web repositories?
[08:06] <humanpersonman> bahadirt, do sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[08:06] <bahadirt> ah ok let me try
[08:07] <bahadirt> cldnt fidn package ubuntu-desktop
[08:07] <bahadirt> this is server version
[08:07] <Flannel> bahadirt: did you enable web repositories?
[08:07] <humanpersonman> bahadirt, you musn't be connected to the web
[08:07] <bahadirt> so that maybe no visual packages inside
[08:07] <bahadirt> ?
[08:08] <bahadirt> shld I donwload and install xubuntu or kubuntu
[08:08] <bahadirt> to make it easier
[08:08] <bahadirt> ?
[08:08] <linux_user400354> wf, you cant mount a whole a device. you must mount a partition on a device. an example of a partition is /dev/hda1. /dev/hda refers to your entire harddrive.
[08:08] <Flannel> bahadirt: you don't need to.  You can install them from the internet.
[08:08] <bahadirt> flannel : how ?
[08:08] <Flannel> bahadirt: do you have your repositories enabled, other than the CD?
[08:08] <bahadirt> I am not connected
[08:08] <bahadirt> well. I got no clue :(
[08:08] <Flannel> bahadirt: ah.  I see.  You'll need to download the *alternate* iso.
[08:09] <humanpersonman> bahadirt, if you can get connected to the internet, you can just do that command or do 'sudo aptitude install (X)(K)(U)buntu-desktop' depending on which you want
[08:09] <CarNagE__> abbot45: ...?
[08:09] <Flannel> bahadirt: the desktop iso doesn't always act nicely as a repository.  download the alternate, of whichever flavor you finally decide
[08:09] <wf> linux_user400354 You're great muchos gracias. :D
[08:09] <Darth_X> hey
[08:09] <linux_user400354> wf, de nada
[08:10] <axl000> is a program like bsplayer for linux? i need to load subtitles (srt)
[08:10] <bahadirt> I connected the network cable but still I am not connected to the internet
[08:10] <bahadirt> I gotta do something else I guess
[08:10] <humanpersonman> bahadirt, do this 'ping google.com' to see if you are actually connected
[08:10] <linux_user400354> bahadirt "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[08:10] <garryF> bsplayer?
[08:10] <bahadirt> trying
[08:11] <garryF> !bsplayer
[08:11] <axl000> yes man
[08:11] <ubotu> I know nothing about bsplayer - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:11] <axl000> lilke bsplayer
[08:11] <andy-> Anyone use FrostWire?
[08:11] <axl000> is a program like bsplayer for linux? i need to load subtitles (srt)

[08:12] <axl000> vlc player dont load subtitles
[08:12] <axl000> not load subs
[08:12] <andy-> DShepherd: does it use up 100% cpu for you? heh
[08:12] <genceleci> hi all, do you think it is safe to use universe repositories?
[08:12] <wf> So can I install ubuntu while in ubuntu from livecd, installcd in my other cdrom drive?
[08:13] <linux_user400354> bahadirt "lspci" and see if ubuntu finds your network adapter
[08:13] <DShepherd> andy-: .. hmm not sure.. havent checked really
[08:13] <garryF> there is also ifconfig
[08:13] <andy-> DShepherd: its weired, I installed the java it requires, ran it, and its eating up all the resources.
[08:13] <wspinelli> i have a network  three pcs
[08:13] <bahadirt> linux_user: ethernet controller - realtek - unknown device
[08:14] <bahadirt> seems something wrong :)
[08:14] <DShepherd> andy-: ok
[08:14] <abbot45> ok.  i got my fstab entry correct and have the HD mounted, but it's not showing up in "Places" and the icon isn't on the desktop.
[08:15] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, i would search www.linuxquestions.org to see if anyone else has the same network adapter with the same problem and how he or she fixed it. you probably need a driver.
[08:15] <axl000> i need a video player to load subtitles (srt) and play divx
[08:15] <axl000> please
[08:15] <axl000> mplayer crash
[08:15] <bahadirt> brrrr
[08:15] <bahadirt> oki mate
[08:15] <bahadirt> checking
[08:15] <humanpersonman> ax, go with vlc
[08:15] <wspinelli>  windows x ubuntu dont work in network
[08:15] <humanpersonman> ax, although I don't know if it loads subtitles
[08:15] <wspinelli> windows asks a login
[08:16] <axl000> vlc not load subs
[08:16] <darekdmp> a jakies polaki tu som?
[08:16] <garryF> Hmmm, this is worrisome. I got an alert that there is a new kernel but there is no updated nvidia driver. Has anyone tried the updates and do they work with the current nvidia driver? Card is an nvidia 6800 Ultra agp.
[08:16] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, you could always switch network adapters from another computer that uses xp
[08:16] <wf> So 1057 Cylinders, 16 Heads, 63 Sectors - 545.5 MB       Any specific filesytem perfect for this type of device?
[08:17] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, unless the network adapter is part of the motherboard, not a pci card
[08:17] <bahadirt> linux_user : ethernet on board
[08:17] <nvez> !yes
[08:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about yes - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:17] <bahadirt> but I have another one, pci
[08:17] <bahadirt> shld I plug in that one ?
[08:18] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, yes
[08:18] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, it may show up as eth1 instead of eth0
[08:19] <bahadirt> ah ok but ubuntu will make plugandplay ?
[08:19] <bahadirt> when I restart the system
[08:19] <bahadirt> ?
[08:19] <garryF> I'd use the default partitioning it uses, if you want to install grub elsewhere than the MBR of the first drive the OS sees than you'll need to get the iso for the alternate install cd.

[08:25] <richiefrich> whats the issue ??>?
[08:25] <ernz> Righto, here it goes.
[08:26] <bahadirt> genceleci : of course, I am Turkish :)
[08:26] <farous> wf you should get a message from ubotu on command line interface cli
[08:26] <richiefrich> u need to ask to get answers
[08:26] <wf> ah okay, LOL, that's correct...
[08:26] <bahadirt> linux_user : I plugged in the pci eth card
[08:26] <wf> big-time irc-noob to.
[08:26] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, did you reboot?
[08:26] <bahadirt> yep
[08:26] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, do you have x installed?
[08:27] <bahadirt> that's the problem mate! I am not sure
[08:27] <bahadirt> I wonder if it comes with the downloaded iso
[08:27] <bahadirt> 6.06 server
[08:27] <wf> Long time ago I used to be on IRC, with mIRC,tribe7 or something like that. But 've bene off for a long time...
[08:27] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, no, it does not
[08:27] <bahadirt> what shld I do now?
[08:27] <bahadirt> to run x
[08:27] <ernz> My dad currently runs Windows. He has 2 physical HD's, an 80GB and a 120GB. Windows is on hda, hdb has backed up files on it. I booted using a genuine Ubuntu Dapper Drake 6.06 LTS disk, and tried to install as Dual Boot.
[08:28] <richiefrich> ernz ok go on
[08:28] <farous> bahadirt: try ifconfig will tell you what is the symbolic name of your card
[08:28] <noiesmo> ernz, yes go on
[08:28] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, if you have it, it will come up with the command "startx"
[08:28] <fuffalo-> what is the default password for root on an ubuntu install
[08:28] <linux_user400354> bahadirt or "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start"
[08:28] <torpedo|dog> fuffalo-: Root is locked.
[08:28] <DShepherd> fuffalo-: there is noe
[08:28] <richiefrich> ernz it wont bootl windows ? right
[08:28] <Flannel> fuffalo-: ubuntu doesn't have a root account by default
[08:28] <wf> fuffalo: use "sudo su -"
[08:28] <DShepherd> none*
[08:28] <Flannel> wf: no.  He has no need to be root.
[08:28] <torpedo|dog> fuffalo-: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[08:28] <bahadirt> ok trying mate
[08:29] <wf> Hm okay. :P
[08:29] <linux_user400354> to use root "sudo -i"
[08:29] <richiefrich> or
[08:29] <richiefrich> sude -Hs
[08:29] <ernz> hdb has 80+GB free, so I just partitioned manually, and used the remaining free space to create a swap (700MB) and a ext "/" partition of the remaining space. All seemed OK, we his apply and it came to an error message part way through and said creation failed.
[08:29] <Flannel> or, just use sudo for each command, which is probably what you want anyway
[08:29] <richiefrich> naw i have a root term open all the time
[08:29] <andy-> Frostwire crashed, @#!$
[08:30] <rayston> hello all
[08:30] <ernz> Now the drive has 3 paritions on it, all apparently "Unformatted" and I can't mount any of them using the Live disk to retreive the info.
[08:30] <rayston> is there a way to have synaptic start installing stuff to a different hard drive?
[08:30] <wf> So 1057 Cylinders, 16 Heads, 63 Sectors - 545.5 MB       Any specific filesytem perfect for this type of device?       Ext2, Ext3 or Reiser... ?
[08:30] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, are you asking me how to install x?
[08:31] <ernz> Was that question to me WF?
[08:31] <ernz> richiefrich: sorry, yes it does still boot windows from the C:\ (hda) drive
[08:31] <wf> anyone thinking (s)he has something to add.
[08:32] <richiefrich> ernz so u mean  that the liveCD/installer failed?
[08:32] <Beawolfe> Need some help mounting win xp and spare HD in Ubuntu .....can antone help?
[08:32] <wf> ernz: Oh, srry no, it's not about your hd, but about mine.
[08:32] <bahadirt> linux_user : no, I just ask whether I shld install xubuntu or kubuntu ?
[08:32] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, try disabling the network adapter on your mobo in the bios settings, and use software called ethtool to figure out which device the pci card is.
[08:33] <bahadirt> yeah That wld be a good idea sir.
[08:33] <ernz> richiefrich: The partitioning section of the install failed in the LiveCD mode, and aborted the partition prematurely.
[08:33] <Generic> can anyone recommend a music player that's not Amarok, Banshee, or Xmms?
[08:33] <Flannel> !tell Generic about players
[08:33] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, i would install neither. i would get ubuntu with gnome, but if i had to choose from one of those 2, i would get kubuntu
[08:34] <ernz> wf: No problem. (I was wondering where you got the Cylinders and Heads there!!) :)
[08:34] <Generic> thanks
[08:34] <Generic> Amarok isn't functional and nobody knows why and xmms crashes/freezes on me
[08:34] <harris> does anyone know how to edit the grub menu when you boot your computer?
[08:34] <harris> I know it's the boot.ini file in windows
[08:34] <harris> but i don't know what the file is in linux
[08:34] <Imme-emosol> ernz: I don't think you should make 3 partitions on a 545 MB hd... ;)
[08:35] <linux_user400354> bahadirt xubuntu runs on slower computers and uses less resources, but its software is crappy compared to kde software
[08:35] <garryF> sudo gedit /etc/boot/grub/grub.lst in a terminal
[08:35] <farous> harris: /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:35] <noiesmo> harris, /boot/grub/menu.1st
[08:35] <harris> thank you all
[08:35] <Flannel> garryF: gksudo gedit
[08:35] <deFrysk> linux_user400354, excuse me ?
[08:35] <ernz> Imme-emosol: Especially when on of the partitions should be 2GB! :D
[08:35] <garryF> Flannel Either works, but for curiosity I'm going to try gksudo ....
[08:36] <ic56> ernz: when you boot from the Ubuntu liveCD, what does fdisk report about your partitions?  More importantly, did you undertake resizing?  If so, what type of filesystem was the original hdb?  NTFS or FAT?
[08:36] <Flannel> garryF: gksudo is for graphical apps, NO difference experience wise, just won't corrupt stuff.
[08:36] <linux_user400354> deFrysk, i would rather have kde then xfce any day unless i really have an old junker or am running a server with a big load, but in that case i would use ubuntu without x installed
[08:36] <Imme-emosol> Any advice on filesystem? Stability would be nice. Not like my crappy s-ata who died out on me.
[08:37] <ernz> ic56: I did resize, yes, and the original FS on hdb was NTFS
[08:37] <deFrysk> linux_user400354, not everyone would agree
[08:37] <kintaroOe> hi guys.. I have a question..do i need to install X Windows System and Gnome Desktop Environment or just the X Windows System to run vmware guest OS are windows xp and 2003?
[08:37] <jerinx> Hi,blh knlan ga?
[08:37] <linux_user400354> rather than*
[08:37] <ernz> ...I feel a plumbers estimate noise coming on here....
[08:37] <ic56> ernz: did the resizing complete successfully?
[08:37] <deFrysk> linux_user400354, so dont tell people whats crappy and whats not
[08:37] <garryF> Flannel Oh nice. thanks!
[08:38] <linux_user400354> deFrysk, right. cant get everyone to agree on lots of things. everyone has his or her own opinions on whats better.
[08:38] <ernz> Not a clue ic56, the process ended with a useless error message and then went back 2 steps in the process without asking me
[08:38] <Shak-> the files/folders on one of my mounted partitions are user root and group plugdev, im trying to change the owner but I get a "operation not permitted" error, even as root?
[08:38] <garryF> Whatever works, is what I say.
[08:38] <deFrysk> linux_user400354, pread your opinions in #ubuntu-ot
[08:38] <Bonez> kekek
[08:38] <bahadirt> linux_user : then where can I download xserver ? only from the system connecting the internet ?
[08:39] <linux_user400354> deFrysk freedom is speech is everywhere i go, not just #ubuntu-ot
[08:39] <linux_user400354> freedom of speech*
[08:39] <garryF> !info xserver
[08:39] <ubotu> Package xserver does not exist in dapper
[08:39] <ic56> ernz: the resizing process ended with an error message or the partitioning?  Or did the app you were using have you supply both simultaneously, leaving you unsure as to which parts got completed and which didn't?
[08:39] <Imme-emosol> If my firefox would not hang up every time I would search for filesystem, but since it does I'm asking all of you.
[08:39] <Flannel> !info xserver-xorg
[08:39] <garryF> Hmm, can never remember if it's /mesg, or /mesg ubotu.
[08:39] <ubotu> xserver-xorg: the X.Org X server. In repository main, is optional. Version 7.0.0-0ubuntu45 (dapper), package size 98 kB, installed size 344 kB

[08:40] <garryF> farous Yep.
[08:40] <linux_user400354> bahadirt are you there anymore?
[08:40] <ernz> I would have to opt for the "Unsure" option there buddy. Yep, door #3
[08:40] <Shak-> anyone got any idea why I cant change ownership of this mounted partition even as root?
[08:40] <harris> how do I  edit /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[08:40] <garryF> Linux and Smirnoff don't like eachother.
[08:40] <linux_user400354> harris vim
[08:40] <Bonez> harris: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[08:41] <Imme-emosol> Shak- could it be 'cause it's mounted?
[08:41] <bahadirt> I am here
[08:41] <Imme-emosol> Shak- or am I babling then?
[08:41] <bahadirt> I disabled the on board lan
[08:41] <garryF> While its mounted, you cannot change ownership.
[08:41] <deFrysk> harris use gedit if you are not familiar with vim
[08:41] <bahadirt> pci lan seems okay but fails to ping
[08:42] <bahadirt> damnnnn
[08:42] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, okay how? fails to ping what?
[08:42] <garryF> !networking
[08:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about networking - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:42] <garryF> huh? Silly all knowing bot.
[08:42] <ic56> ernz: ok. I've never done resizing, but I'll hazard a guess that the resizing was successful but the partition conked out.  Boot from the liveCD, get yourself a command line, then use "sudo fdisk /dev/hdb" to see the partition table on that disk.  the NTFS partition should have code 7.  If it doesn't, change it to 7, and see if the filesystem is clean
[08:43] <garryF> Is it wireless?
[08:43] <orbin> are there security.ubuntu.com mirrors?
[08:43] <bahadirt> !help xserver
[08:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about help xserver - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:43] <Imme-emosol> linux_user400354 what would you rather have(:D) as a filesystem, ext2, ext3 or reiser ?
[08:43] <Flannel> !xorg
[08:43] <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
[08:43] <bahadirt> !info xserver
[08:43] <ubotu> Package xserver does not exist in dapper
[08:43] <linux_user400354> does ubuntu have documentation on lvm or more specifically how to resize logical volumes?
[08:43] <Flannel> xserver-xorg is the package name
[08:44] <bahadirt> linux_user : I try "ping google.com" but fails
[08:44] <harris> deFrysk it want let me delete partions from the menu list using gedit do you have any suggestion?
[08:44] <bahadirt> pci card seems working now but..
[08:44] <ic56> ernz: if the filesystem isn't corrupt, then you're good to go -- just change the codes of the other two partitions and restart teh install.  If teh NTFS partition is corrupt, then resizing failed and you're SOL.  If you need that data, you're looking at going sector by sector, in a scrambled disk, trying to re-assemble your files
[08:44] <deFrysk> harris, delete partitions ?
[08:44] <deFrysk> harris, what are you doing ?
[08:44] <harris> partition names off of the grub menu
[08:45] <harris> edit the grub menu./
[08:45] <ic56> ernz: there is one last possibility.
[08:45] <harris> trying to remove entrys from the boot up menu.
[08:45] <deFrysk> harris use sudo gedit /path/to/texfile
[08:45] <harris> by editing the grub/menu.list file
[08:45] <farous> harris you need root priv
[08:45] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, i would rather have ext3 than ext2 because ext3 is ext2 + journaling. ive tried reiserfs. i know an engineer who believes reiserfs is the best thing that ever happened. i would personally rather use zfs.
[08:45] <ernz> I'm listening ic56...
[08:45] <deFrysk> harris, got that ?
[08:45] <harris> farous how do I get root priv?
[08:45] <Flannel> deFrysk: gksudo gedit
[08:46] <harris> what's the command?
[08:46] <deFrysk> Flannel, also fine but not needed
[08:46] <farous> harris: as Flannel said
[08:46] <garryF> You can remove kernel entries by uninstalling the kernel images and just leaving the ones you want to keep. as for other os's, just put a # before the lines.
[08:46] <deFrysk> harris, use sudo or gksudo
[08:46] <ic56> ernz: like I said, I don't know how these repartitioning tools work but, assuming it saved teh new partition table before resizing (which would make no sense but perhaps you encountered a bug) then it's possible that
[08:46] <harris> k trying now.
[08:46] <Flannel> harris: use gksudo for graphical apps, sudo can mess things up
[08:46] <garryF> Like for me, I uninstalled the 386 kernel images because I have a 686
[08:47] <Imme-emosol> linux_user400354 what is that journaling about then? :S Srry to bother with such stupid questions, but FF won't work nice...
[08:47] <linux_user400354> bahadirt does ifconfig tell you you have an ip address?
[08:47] <linux_user400354> what is FF?
[08:47] <Imme-emosol> FireFox
[08:47] <Beawolfe> can anyone tell me the command process to permantly mount all partitions at startup?
[08:48] <Flannel> Imme-emosol: journaling means it does everything atomically, not that it keeps a log of what it's written or anything.  atomically - if you lose power halfway through a write, on the next bootup your files get reverted, instead of left halfway
[08:48] <garryF> Journeling is a way of keeping track of changes in the filesystem so that if there is a crash, recovery is easier.
[08:48] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journaling_file_system
[08:48] <ic56> ernz: the partition has *not* been resized.  In that case, to recover, you'd change the partition table to reflect a reality of a single NTFS partition (type 7 -- but you can display all the codes from the fdisk menu) spanning the whole disk.  Try that before going in with that sector editor, maybe you'll get luck and all will be miraculously restored!
[08:48] <jerinx> hi,blh knlan ga?
[08:49] <orbin> Beawolfe: you need to create fstab entries for each one
[08:49] <ic56> ernz: and before you change anything, remember to record the existing partition table so you can go back to it if you screw up!
[08:49] <orbin> Beawolfe: what filesystem are they formmated in?
[08:49] <Imme-emosol> That sounds nice.   Yeah, firefox won't open more then one page or not at all... so.   I'm taking your word for it though some may not agree. ;)
[08:49] <bahadirt> checking ifconfig
[08:49] <ic56> ernz: questions?
[08:50] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, i dont think the problem has to do with your file system
[08:50] <Beawolfe> I have Win XP dive with 3 partitions of NTFS and a Data drive that is Fat32
[08:50] <bahadirt> linux_user : ip 127.0.0.1
[08:50] <harris> Flannel thanks a lot, i was able to edit it
[08:50] <ernz> ic56 - Excellent help. I will try it all later today when I go to fix it. You reckon Fdisk will to the lot, or should I need additional tools?
[08:50] <harris> now all i gotta do is reboot and make sure i didn't fuck anything up lol
[08:50] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, not the loop back ip
[08:50] <bahadirt> we got an isa server and a netwiork here
[08:50] <orbin> are there security.ubuntu.com mirrors? i tried <countrycode>.security.ubuntu.com but it's invalid
[08:50] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, the ip for eth0
[08:50] <orbin> Beawolfe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[08:51] <garryF> The one page problem is common to a number of browers. The tech of web pages, started out assuming one page output.
[08:51] <Beawolfe> I really only need to mount the Data drive permantly so I can transfer between Ubuntu and Win XP
[08:51] <ShaunES> Question: I'm booting a livecd and managed to get to another console.
[08:51] <orbin> Beawolfe: see that page
[08:51] <bahadirt> linux_user : when I type ifconfig
[08:51] <ShaunES> alt-f1 doesn't get me to the main one anymore.
[08:51] <Imme-emosol> linux_user > no, there's no real problem anymore... I think it's something about the livecd or so. But that doesn't matter.
[08:51] <bahadirt> inet addr : 127.0.0.1  mask : 255.0.0.0
[08:51] <bahadirt> no any other ips
[08:52] <garryF> If that data drive is ntfs, it won't be safe to write to it. You will need to use fat32
[08:52] <cpk2> ShaunES: try alt f7
[08:52] <KenSentMe> ShaunES: and ctrl+alt+f7?
[08:52] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, can you paste all of the output in pastebin?
[08:52] <ic56> ernz: fdisk (lower case) is used to manipulate partition tables.  At this stage, that's all you want to do.  cfdisk is a variant of fdisk that is useful for saving/restoring partition information in bulk (rather than with pen and paper :-) ).  Read the manpages for both tools if you've never used them
[08:52] <ShaunES> Not responding.
[08:52] <linux_user400354> !pastebin
[08:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[08:52] <garryF> I transfer data via usb memory sticks

[08:53] <ic56> What is winOS?  Is that a Linux distro?
[08:53] <ic56> ernz: What is winOS?  Is that a Linux distro?
[08:53] <Imme-emosol> ShaunEs ah okay. lol
[08:53] <Imme-emosol> anyone familliar with ReactOS by the way?
[08:54] <ShaunES> "mpic_enable_irc timeout" what's broken?
[08:54] <bahadirt> linux_user : I am pasting it to your private if you dont mind.. only a few lines
[08:54] <garryF> In a pinch, I bet pastebin can be used to xfer text data accross os's., just have to write the url down carefully
[08:54] <ernz> lol - No ec56 - Windows Operating System WinOS AKA Winblows AKA Thorn in my bleeding side!!!!!
[08:54] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, okay thats fine
[08:54] <garryF> I wonder if its ok to use pastebin that way though.
[08:54] <rixth> Where can I get more visualizations for Totem? The ONLY included one "What a GOOM" sucks.
[08:55] <Imme-emosol> ShaunES Ctrl + Alt + F1 neither?
[08:55] <ShaunES> Nada.
[08:55] <Beawolfe> orbin ...........THANX a Million!!!!!! that worked
[08:55] <orbin> Beawolfe: yw
[08:55] <ShaunES> I'm in what I can only assume is the log console.
[08:55] <ShaunES> Since every now and then I get
[08:55] <ShaunES> "ide-pmac lost interrupt, dma status: 8080"
[08:55] <ShaunES> "mpic_enable_irc timeout" what's broken?
[08:56] <ic56> ernz: ah, I've never before seen it called that.  I've seen it abbreviated MS-Win or MS-Windows but never with the words "Operating System".
[08:56] <bahadirt> linux_user : pasted to prvmsg
[08:56] <ernz> LMAO - That's for a very good reason ic56
[08:56] <Shak-> Imme-emosol: what do you mean, its mounted because its just a partition on the drive
[08:57] <rixth> ernz, lose the aolbonics please
[08:57] <Shak-> and for some reason I cant change ownership even while root
[08:57] <garryF> I called it Migraine soft windows
[08:57] <Shak-> is there any reason for that?
[08:57] <cpk2> ShaunES: ctrl C might stop it from spitting out errors and give you a terminal to do something
[08:57] <ShaunES> Nope.
[08:57] <linux_user400354> bajadort, i didnt get anything
[08:58] <ernz> rixth: In English?
[08:58] <ic56> ernz: fdisk under linux is somewhat different from windows.  For one thing, it's command line driven rather than menu driven.  when you start it, it will say "m for help".  Press m to see a list of commands
[08:58] <Imme-emosol> Shak- is the pratition mounted?
[08:58] <bahadirt> when I do "lspci" : vga comp controller : ATI Tech.: unknown device
[08:58] <Shak-> Imme-emosol: yep
[08:58] <rixth> ernz, 'lol', 'lmao' et. al
[08:58] <rayston> is there a way to have synaptic start installing stuff to a different hard drive?
[08:58] <solid_liq> bahadirt: you don't have the ati driver for your video card
[08:58] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, that would be your video card
[08:58] <orbin> bahadirt: run update-pciids
[08:58] <solid_liq> bahadirt: try fglrx
[08:58] <Imme-emosol> Shak- can you u(n)mount?
[08:58] <garryF> cfdisk is a bit easier to use, but tends to round sizes to the nearest cylinder boundry.
[08:58] <Shak-> Imme-emosol: uh, havent tried that
[08:59] <user-land> Hello, how can i change a partition label with fdisk ?
[08:59] <bahadirt> permission denied / download failed
[08:59] <ic56> ernz: l = list known partition types will display a table of partition codes you can use.  Use t (change partition's system id) to change a partition's code.
[08:59] <skavenge> woo
[08:59] <linux_user400354> user-land "man fdisk"
[08:59] <user-land> partition labels are not mentioned in man fdisk ...
[08:59] <solid_liq> user-land: just use fdisk
[09:00] <bahadirt> linux_user : I paste to your prvmsgbox but seems you cannot read
[09:00] <solid_liq> user-land: oops, I didn't read fully :D
[09:00] <Imme-emosol> If I do "man fdisk", to quit man is Ctrl + Z ?
[09:00] <ic56> ernz: use p to see the list of partitions.  "q" will quit without saving your changes
[09:00] <ic56>  "w" will write the modified partition table and exit. Read up for more.  Good luck!
[09:00] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, have you logged into freenode with a password?
[09:00] <orbin> bahadirt: sudo update-pciids
[09:00] <ic56> ernz: "w" will write the modified partition table and exit. Read up for more.  Good luck!
[09:01] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: no, ctrl-z puts it in the background, use q to quit
[09:01] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol , no just type q
[09:01] <ernz> ic56 - I see it now, that seems straight forward enough :S - Thanks for your help on that one.
[09:01] <Imme-emosol> ah, JUST q. :P
[09:01] <ic56> ernz: yw!
[09:01] <ernz> Rixth: What's a'do with LMAO, I mean FFS it's not like tonnes of peeps don't use it - LOL!
[09:01] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: if you've done ctrl-z, type fg to bring it back into the foreground, then quit it with q
[09:02] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq gracias
[09:02] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: np
[09:02] <linux_user400354> solid_liq or he can do a "killall less"
[09:03] <solid_liq> linux_user400354: yeah, but that's somewhat less elegant
[09:03] <bahadirt> linux_user : maybe I cannot reach internet bcos of being behind a gateway/isa server/firewall etc.
[09:03] <bahadirt> ?
[09:03] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, try pinging another computer on your lan
[09:03] <Imme-emosol> lol
[09:03] <bahadirt> ok
[09:03] <solid_liq> linux_user400354: plus it teaches him how to bring a background process back into the foreground and how to use that with ctrl-z
[09:03] <ShaunES> Why is 6.06 freezing when it loads the GUI?
[09:03] <linux_user400354> bahadirt try pinging your router if you have one or a modem
[09:04] <bahadirt> linux_user : I can ping 127.0.0.16
[09:04] <bahadirt> another client of our network
[09:04] <ernz> rixth: What's the uber leet penguin friendly mega free alternatives I should be using now? :\
[09:04] <user-land> solid_liq, can i change the label of a partition without reformatting it ?
[09:04] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq > yeah, but I think that if I will use unix-system more often I will just switch to another tty to work with...
[09:05] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, reset your router by putting a needle in the small hole and hold it there for 15 seconds
[09:05] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: which reminds me, most programs can be put into the background so you can do something with the shell by pressing ctrl-z, then brought back up by typing fg
[09:05] <solid_liq> user-land: yeah, but you don't use fdisk for that
[09:05] <user-land> how could i do that, solid_liq ?
[09:05] <solid_liq> user-land: are you using ext3?
[09:05] <user-land> yes.
[09:06] <garryF> I believe that gparted allows renaming of partion labels.
[09:06] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: you never know when it'll come in handy
[09:06] <garryF> !info gparted
[09:06] <ubotu> gparted: partition editor for GNOME. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu9 (dapper), package size 232 kB, installed size 1280 kB
[09:06] <Imme-emosol> why is my "free space not available"?
[09:06] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: like when you just want to do something in the directory you ran the program in, and it's a deeply nested directory
[09:06] <romulo> hi, is edgy still broken?
[09:06] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, you are out of disk space?
[09:06] <solid_liq> user-land: are you using ext3 or what filesystem?
[09:07] <user-land> ext3, yes, solid_liq.
[09:07] <ShaunES> Oh this is getting retarded. How on earth am I meant to do this when it's freezing when the gui launches.
[09:07] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: did you use df to check it?
[09:07] <solid_liq> user-land: then use e2label
[09:07] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq: true, I'm eager to learn more about the unix-sys, since I'm most probably gone do my utmost best to give up on windows. :D With all their genuine advantage tools... :p
[09:07] <hd420> where does the twiki dpkg install the LocalLib.cfg?
[09:07] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq: df ?
[09:08] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: :D  I gave up windows over 4 years ago
[09:08] <bahadirt> linux_user : can I download xserver seperately and install from cd instead of downloading ?
[09:08] <garryF> Edit the /etc/inittab change the default runlevel from 5 to 3 and it will default to a console login, then you can use some text editor to change things.
[09:08] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: df stands for disk free, use df -h to show disk space in human readable format
[09:08] <Imme-emosol> linux_user: I'm not out of disk-space, still on livecd, just formatted the hd.
[09:08] <user-land> solid_liq: e2label: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hdd
[09:08] <user-land> Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.
[09:08] <Bergcube> romulo~  AFAIK edgy is in early stages f development.  As such is is subject to change without notice, and it's in it's nature not to work as a complete or finished system.  Saying "not finished" is the same as "broken" sounds as lack of insight to me.
[09:08] <garryF> will need to do sudo before editing
[09:09] <solid_liq> user-land: you need to specify the partition, like /dev/hdd4
[09:09] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, yes, you would have to download the alternate cd for the ubuntu desktop install(not server install) and then use it as a repository by adding it to your /etc/apt/sources.list and running the command "sudo apt-get update"
[09:09] <solid_liq> user-land: type mount by itself to see where your partitions are mounted
[09:09] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq doesn't show up, probably 'cause I unmounted the HD, since I formatted it...
[09:09] <Imme-emosol> I now have Partition 1 and Free Space.
[09:10] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: do you know what partition you formatted?  and why are you doing it manually?  I'm curious
[09:10] <Imme-emosol> And I would be happy if I can habe all the free-space 'cause I can use all I have... :S
[09:11] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq I formatted Ext3
[09:11] <Imme-emosol> Did it with disk manager... Not completely manual... :p
[09:11] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: have you used fdisk to check?
[09:11] <garryF> Imme-emosol: the default partitioning, does that with  a little set aside for swap.
[09:11] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: try fdisk or cfdisk
[09:11] <bahadirt> ilnux_user : but I have the server install. I dont have the desktop install
[09:11] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: cfdisk is a little more friendly
[09:11] <user-land> thanks a lot, solid_liq :-)
[09:11] <bahadirt> do I have to install alternate cd on top of this server install ?
[09:11] <solid_liq> user-land: np
[09:12] <bahadirt> linux for human beings indeed :):)
[09:12] <solid_liq> bahadirt: huh?
[09:12] <solid_liq> bahadirt: what are you trying to do?
[09:12] <garryF> Server install is for those use to the command line interface and the commands.
[09:12] <bahadirt> solid : I just want to run the xserver
[09:12] <solid_liq> bahadirt: kde or gnome?
[09:12] <prophet> RAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWw
[09:12] <bahadirt> but we found out that it is not included to the 6.06 package
[09:12] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, no, you dont install the alternate cd on top of the server install. the server install does not come with x, so you will have to get the alternate install and just use a few packages in it to install x, not the entire cd.
[09:12] <bahadirt> doesnt matter
[09:13] <Chousuke> bahadirt: it is included.
[09:13] <bahadirt> any gui will do fine
[09:13] <prophet> i just took a nap from 7pm to 12AM
[09:13] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq cfdisk just gives me partition 1
[09:13] <garryF> YOu will need to install a gui if you haven't already. try startx
[09:13] <solid_liq> bahadirt: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:13] <bahadirt> chousuke : some 5 guys here told me not included
[09:13] <solid_liq> bahadirt: that's all you have to do
[09:13] <Chousuke> bahadirt: why did you even install the server install in the first place then?
[09:13] <bahadirt> and another 5 told me included
[09:13] <garryF> waht solid_liq said ^
[09:13] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, x comes with the ubuntu desktop install, not the server install
[09:13] <solid_liq> bahadirt: and you apparently d/l'd the server iso instead of the desktop one
[09:13] <bahadirt> yes that's true
[09:14] <bahadirt> slhd I download and install desktop install ? or alternate install =
[09:14] <Chousuke> but don't they contain the same packages?
[09:14] <bahadirt> ?
[09:14] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: that's what I was guessing it would do from what you said.  Add another partition
[09:14] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, those commands he gave you wont work if your internet is not working. therefore you have to do what i said to get those commands to work
[09:14] <garryF> would do apt-get unbuntu-desktop
[09:14] <Chousuke> bahadirt: no, you just need to do sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[09:14] <solid_liq> bahadirt: I have one of my machines running from a 6.06 install cd, and it installed the desktop
[09:14] <Chousuke> and wait for a while.
[09:14] <garryF> er apt-get install ubuntu-desktop if youw ant gnome.
[09:14] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq I'm doing it sort of manual 'cause I want to install ubuntu under ubuntu liveCD... :p
[09:15] <solid_liq> bahadirt: just     apt-get install kubuntu
[09:15] <bahadirt> could not fnd the paclage ubuntu-desktop :(
[09:15] <PORDO> does anyone know how i can put uris in proper order on my system, so i can ping com.google.www instead of www.google.com (which is backward)
[09:15] <solid_liq> bahadirt: it'll give you the same.    use kubuntu-desktop
[09:15] <garryF>  then try what solid_liq said to do.
[09:15] <bahadirt> E: Couldnt find package kubuntu
[09:15] <bahadirt> that's his reply :)
[09:15] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, you are not going to find those packages untill you add the ubuntu desktop alterante cd as a repository in /etc/atp/sources.list or get your internet working
[09:15] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: ah, ok
[09:15] <garryF> !info ubuntu-desktop
[09:15] <ubotu> ubuntu-desktop: The Ubuntu desktop system. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.119 (dapper), package size 13 kB, installed size 40 kB
[09:16] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: have you ever done a manual linux install before?
[09:16] <ShaunES> Question: How do I get a verbose or step by step setup for a livecd?
[09:16] <lmosher> Some directions I'm following told me to install "dpkg-dev" so that my "archive program" can open .deb files
[09:16] <solid_liq> linux_user400354: ah, good point! :D
[09:16] <lmosher> Which "archive program" should I use?
[09:16] <bahadirt> linux_user : just for the sake of good order, I will format the hdd and install desktop edition
[09:16] <bahadirt> is that okay ?
[09:16] <garryF> I reccomend using the alternate cd for installing. Its more flexible
[09:17] <bahadirt> desktop or alternate
[09:17] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, sure why not
[09:17] <bahadirt> whichevet better
[09:17] <ShaunES> Desktop.
[09:17] <ShaunES> Er.
[09:17] <solid_liq> bahadirt: use Kubuntu :D
[09:17] <ShaunES> garryF, is there any way at all?
[09:17] <linux_user400354> bahadirt alternate has been tested more so its less likely to have bugs
[09:17] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq I don't think so... If we think the same about manual... You don't mean that default step by step thin right? I always make the menu believe I'm an expert... :p
[09:17] <ShaunES> It looks like I need to move "esd".
[09:17] <bahadirt> I will download alternate cd and burn iso
[09:17] <bahadirt> then re-install
[09:17] <bahadirt> from the beginning
[09:17] <bahadirt> it takes second only, running on Pentium Dual 2.66
[09:18] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: oh, ok, I meant creating the partitions, copying files over, chrooting in, etc. :D
[09:18] <solid_liq> bahadirt: nice
[09:18] <garryF> ShaunES The alternate allows for install of grub bootloader on other than the mbr of the first drive, and some other flexibility during install
[09:18] <Imme-emosol> solid_liq nope, not done that. :p
[09:18] <bahadirt> wait for me guys. My return will be fabulous ;)
[09:18] <ShaunES> garryF, I don't want to install, I want it as a livecd.
[09:18] <Imme-emosol> Can I use the whole disk or rather not? Leave a little space?
[09:18] <garryF> Oh. I see. Nm.
[09:18] <ShaunES> As it is it's freezing on the brown screen.
[09:19] <solid_liq> bahadirt: I got an amd64 X2 (dualcore) about 8 mo. ago and I already want one with the new intel core 2 duo :D
[09:19] <swim> is there any application that is able to play wmv's that have drm?
[09:19] <romulo> theres any channel for edgy?
[09:19] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: k, I was wondering why you wanted to do that under ubuntu :D
[09:19] <linux_user400354> !info edgy
[09:19] <ubotu> Package edgy does not exist in dapper
[09:19] <jk2> Is Ubuntu install supposed to figure out the display's dpi?
[09:19] <_3fg> !dvd
[09:19] <bahadirt> solid : trust me it means nothing at all unless you see the x :)

[09:20] <solid_liq> jk2: yep
[09:20] <solid_liq> bahadirt: x-windows you mean?
[09:20] <bahadirt> yeag
[09:20] <solid_liq> linux_user400354: could you /msg ubotu instead please?
[09:21] <Imme-emosol> :P
[09:21] <solid_liq> bahadirt: I'd notice the diff when compiling software too :D
[09:21] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, linux without x is always a good learning experience
[09:21] <Bonez> kekek
[09:21] <Imme-emosol> So now I see there's more to live then ext2, ext3 and reiser... :S
[09:22] <solid_liq> linux_user400354, bahadirt: and the only way to run a server :D
[09:22] <Imme-emosol> GNU HURD :S:S:S?
[09:22] <ShaunES> Is there any way to shave 50mb off the alternative .ISO?
[09:22] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: I wouldn't recommend reiser, it always gets corrupted after awhile.  It took over two years for me, but when it did, it SUCKED
[09:23] <swim> is there any application that is able to play wmv's that have drm?
[09:23] <solid_liq> swim: nope
[09:23] <swim> hrmm kinda lame
[09:23] <solid_liq> swim: you have to use the original win32 codecs to play them period, and they check for drm restrictions
[09:23] <Imme-emosol> I want the most stable one, one hd-dead is enough... :p   ext3? Or something else?
[09:23] <garryF> google for linux livecd scripts and you will find you can install a linux system, run the script, and it creates a livecd version of the system. Useful if you are short on drive space.
[09:23] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: ext3 is always a good choice
[09:24] <hd420> sod this shite
[09:24] <solid_liq> garryF: also very usefull for deploying desktops in a small company
[09:24] <Imme-emosol> linux_user400354 you mentioned something beside ext3. ? What was that again? Does that fs also use journalling?
[09:24] <garryF> Yep, and I too like ext3 best.
[09:24] <linux_user400354> zfs, hopefully it will get ported to linux
[09:24] <swim> solid_liq: I have the proper username/pass for these... I can play them using the cxoffice mediaplayer plugins... but I dont like them
[09:25] <solid_liq> linux_user400354: yeah, I can't WAIT for that!  :)))
[09:25] <bahadirt> guys
[09:25] <bahadirt> one last q!
[09:25] <bahadirt> now I will either download ubuntu alternate -or- kubuntu
[09:25] <bahadirt> which one is the right?
[09:25] <solid_liq> swim: oh, dunno then.  I avoid wmv like the plague
[09:25] <bahadirt> I will use the computer as mail server
[09:25] <Imme-emosol> So zfs is not supported a.t.m. ?
[09:25] <solid_liq> bahadirt: just as a mail server, not a desktop?
[09:26] <swim> solid_liq: thats sort of impossible
[09:26] <solid_liq> Imme-emosol: no, it's a new fs from sun
[09:26] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, not in linux
[09:26] <solid_liq> swim: not completely
[09:26] <garryF> Well, You can actually download ubuntu alternate, install and then install kubuntu-desktop and have the choice to switch between gnome and kde.
[09:26] <Imme-emosol> ah okay, to compete with ntfs ?
[09:26] <hd420> this is shite
[09:27] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, i dont understand. what is your question?
[09:27] <bahadirt> but I want to use as desktop as well
[09:27] <bahadirt> for fun
[09:28] <Imme-emosol> is zfs Sun's reaction to the ntfs ?
[09:28] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, you have to decide whether you like kde or gnome better
[09:28] <garryF> use either, you have your choice.
[09:28] <Imme-emosol> linux_user: I'm going to format my drive, so that's why I asked. :)
[09:28] <bahadirt> which is more stable ?
[09:28] <bahadirt> iac this will act as a server :)
[09:29] <bahadirt> I dont want crashes and stuff
[09:29] <garryF> there is a quite a lot of controversy about that.
[09:29] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, trying something different is good. you should try reiserfs.
[09:29] <Imme-emosol> From what I've read I concluded kde is more stable...
[09:29] <Imme-emosol> ext2 or ext3 IS something different. :p
[09:29] <garryF> simply changing your /etc/inittab default runlevel to 3 and it will start in command line like a server, if you want to start the gui, then do startx
[09:29] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, gnome uses less resources than kde. i prefer it.
[09:30] <bahadirt> ok. I download alternate and install
[09:30] <bahadirt> that's the final decision
[09:30] <Imme-emosol> But since it isn't build upon gpl completely like gnome, I prefer gnome.
[09:30] <bahadirt> some 700 mb :) see you a week later guys
[09:30] <garryF> hehe, bahadirt
[09:30] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, why so long. are you downloading on dial up?
[09:31] <bahadirt> no but limited bandwidth.. 20-25kbits
[09:31] <bahadirt> of 2mbits adsl
[09:31] <garryF> holy cow. .... ouch.
[09:31] <bahadirt> 6 hrs left..
[09:31] <master5o1> :P
[09:31] <Bonez> what speed connections to others here have?
[09:31] <Bonez> i'm just curious
[09:32] <master5o1> holy shit...slow
[09:32] <solid_li> sorry, my connection dropped out :(
[09:32] <solid_li> bahadirt: are you going to use it as a desktop too, or just a mail server?
[09:32] <Bonez> solid_li: what speed is your connection
[09:32] <solid_li> Imme-emosol: no, ntfs isn't that great
[09:32] <solid_li> Imme-emosol: zfs is the most badass filesystem on the planet, beats EVERYTHING else hands down
[09:32] <Imme-emosol> Wait a sec...   ext2 or 3 or reiser are not compatible with windows or macos?
[09:32] <garryF> He did want both destop and server modes
[09:33] <Imme-emosol> solid_li why's that then?
[09:33] <solid_li> Bonez: wireless connection
[09:33] <linux_user400354> lmme-emosol, ntfs doesnt come close to zfs
[09:33] <Bonez> solid_li: what speed?
[09:33] <solid_li> Imme-emosol: there's a wikipedia article if you want to see the filesystem comparison chart
[09:33] <master5o1> im in NZ...2mbps (max here is 3.5mbps) down...and 128kbps (max here is 512kbps) up...
[09:33] <solid_li> Bonez: dude, it's just 802.11
[09:33] <master5o1> 19:34
[09:34] <Bonez> solid_li: k
[09:34] <master5o1> maybe 35?
[09:34] <Imme-emosol> solid_li: firefox isn't coorporating, so can't look at that right now... :p
[09:34] <master5o1> opera :P
[09:34] <garryF> There is a utility for reading ext2 and more recently ext3 for most distros from windows, but last I tried, it wasn't all that stable.
[09:34] <Imme-emosol> coorporating = co-operating :S
[09:34] <garryF> and I forgot the name.
[09:34] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: there is an XP driver for ext2/3
[09:34] <GhettoPuNKkiD> can someone help with videolan? my capture device is showing the image then part of it below it?
[09:34] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: MacOSX only supports HFS, HFS+, UFS, and FAT32
[09:35] <Imme-emosol> mneptok, macOsX no Fat16?
[09:35] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: not AFAIK. but maybe.
[09:35] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: GIYF
[09:35] <linux_user400354> does anyone know when google is supposed to come out with a web browser?
[09:36] <mneptok> linux_user400354: "not anytime soon"
[09:36] <master5o1> Google is being mean...I liked Google better when i was on windows :D
[09:36] <Imme-emosol> mneptok gimf, but firefox isn't a.t.m. so...
[09:36] <Imme-emosol> master5ol, why's that?
[09:36] <linux_user400354> master5o1, why? some google software runs in linux.
[09:37] <bahadirt> solid : mail server for 2 clients
[09:37] <jxt> 'lo
[09:37] <Imme-emosol> master5ol there's a special unix google...
[09:37] <linux_user400354> mneptok, why do you say that?
[09:37] <bahadirt> but some 10.000 mails out / 20000 in
[09:37] <bahadirt> 2000 sorry
[09:37] <garryF> I am google of borg. ....
[09:37] <bahadirt> same time I will experience ubuntu so I need xserver
[09:37] <RedGhost> what is the default path for GCC on ubuntu
[09:37] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, are the clients paying you?
[09:37] <Bonez> what speed connections do ppl here have?
[09:37] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: "About the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Update (Delta) .... Addresses a rare issue in which a file could become damaged when copying to a FAT16- or FAT32-formatted volume."
[09:38] <crimsun> RedGhost: /usr/bin/gcc
[09:38] <mneptok> Imme-emosol: so apparently, yes
[09:38] <crimsun> RedGhost: if you don't have it, install build-essential
[09:38] <jxt> One question: default GNOME media player is Rhythmbox so keyboard shortcuts refer to it. I use QuodLibet and would like to set it as a default player -- anybody know how? Now I've got QuodLibet, but when I push "Media" on my keyboard -- Rhythmbox is starting. Google found nothing but junk. :/
[09:38] <garryF> bahadirt: The system should know that your gui choice depends on having xserver, and install it.
[09:38] <spades> Bonez 60/20 mbps but im at work, 10/2 at home
[09:38] <Bonez> spades: fark, nice
[09:38] <jxt> I just bound my "Media" key to "Start media player" in GNOME shortcuts.
[09:39] <jxt> But I'd like to have media player == QuodLibet
[09:39] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, put your default run level at 3 and then you can startx when you want to use it
[09:39] <mneptok> linux_user400354: Google has sunk a lot of money and effort into Firefox and Opera. i doubt they'd do so if they were developing a competing product.
[09:39] <bahadirt> now downloading alternate cd of ubuntu
[09:39] <bahadirt> 3 hrs left
[09:39] <bahadirt> once its here will give a try
[09:40] <garryF> Hey, not bad progress.
[09:40] <bahadirt> hope this time startx will work :)
[09:40] <master5o1> Bonez: In New Zealand, the max speed is 3.5mbps down + 512kbps up...my speed is 2mbps/128kbps ...meh..will change now coz of unbundling
[09:40] <Imme-emosol> neptok thnx 4 being my alternative browser ;)
[09:40] <master5o1> :D
[09:40] <jxt> I thought of using "Preferred apps" but there's nothing about Media player.
[09:40] <jxt> :/
[09:40] <mneptok> Bonez: i'm sitting alone on a T1. :)
[09:40] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, are your clients paying you?
[09:40] <RedGhost> .. /usr/bin/gcc does not exist and the only gcc packages i can find are gcc-4.0-base which seems to be the documentation

[09:41] <godtvisk1n> I have version 2.0.0beta3 of Gaim, but gaim-otr won't work with it. How can I downgrade Gaim or fix it so that gaim-otr works?
[09:41] <garryF> In Gome there is an add/remove menu items choice under /applications at the very bottom.
[09:41] <garryF> gnome
[09:41] <Seveas> !compiling > RedGhost
[09:41] <jxt> RedGhost, apt-get install gcc works here.
[09:41] <jxt> So, anyone knows how to change default GNOME media player to QuodLibet ?
[09:42] <Seveas> mneptok, ?
[09:42] <garryF> System/Preferences/preferred applications I think
[09:42] <jxt> garryF, well... no.
[09:42] <bahadirt> linux_user : no. we have an ms exchange server in our company
[09:42] <Hexidigital_>  i need help with my CUPS server... anyone know how i can make it listen on my hostname, not IP address? (also, having a problem accessing the printer, but i'm not sure if that is related)
[09:42] <mneptok> Seveas: just saying cheerio :)
[09:42] <garryF> jxt K
[09:42] <jxt> garryF, there's e-mail client, web browser and terminal emulator. Tried this.
[09:42] <Seveas> mneptok, weird way to do so 
[09:42] <bahadirt> most of the clients using that but we had a fight with management and decided to put our linux server
[09:42] <bahadirt> just for 2 clients :)
[09:43] <mneptok> jxt: right-click a media file. choose "Properties"
[09:43] <bahadirt> they are a bit pissed off due to our traffic
[09:43] <mneptok> Seveas: most everything about me is weird :)
[09:43] <bahadirt> we sacrificed a 20k$ ibm e-server and built a p-duo here
[09:43] <RedGhost> i know how to compile the problem is make is giving me an invalid command GCC isnt located in usr/bin and the only repository package is the gcc-4.0-base
[09:44] <polpak> RedGhost: installed build-essential ?
[09:44] <linux_user400354> linux is known to be a better server than microsoft 2003 server
[09:44] <pse> Hi. This isn't ubuntu specific, but I noticed in my router leasing table, all my windows boxes have their hostnames listed, but my ubuntu box only shows up as an IP
[09:44] <jxt> mneptok, yes, there's QuodLibet, but "Media" on the keyboard still starts Rhythmbox.
[09:44] <brynk> anyone here know how long it'll be before the vmware player fix is done?
[09:44] <pse> Any ideas why that might be?
[09:44] <garryF> !info build-essential > RedGhost

[09:44] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know how to forcibly empty the trash? Mines being stubborn.
[09:45] <Imme-emosol> So what flag do I give tot the o command for cfdisk ? Or should I use something else:S?
[09:45] <polpak> nicholaspaul: cd ~ && rm -rf .Trash && mkdir .Trash
[09:46] <nicholaspaul> Thx polpak !
[09:46] <garryF> Sounds like you Might have to put sudo before that if its like mine, the trash had suff owned by root.
[09:46] <jxt> mneptok, I want GNOME to use QuodLibet as default media player -- also with keyboard shortcuts.
[09:46] <garryF> Doh, never mind, it just worked.
[09:47] <Imme-emosol> Guess I'm going then... Installing from the install-CD... :S :P
[09:47] <Imme-emosol> Thanks for the help all who did.
[09:48] <mneptok> jxt: give this a read - http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q22
[09:48] <ardchoille> W00T! www.tldp.org ROCKS!
[09:48] <pse> No thoughts on why my router can't detect my box's hostname?
[09:48] <garryF> wireless router?
[09:49] <BioGeek> Hey, I have a pdf-related question, but I don't know if this is the appropriate channel...
[09:49] <jxt> mneptok, yeah great. All media are played by QuodLibet by default, but it's still not the gnome default media player.
[09:49] <pse> Nah, regular type.
[09:49] <RedGhost> i cant install build-essential because the internet connection isnt working, and i need GCC to install a package to fix the networking
[09:49] <pse> Or, yes, it's a wireless router, but the conneciton is wired.
[09:49] <garryF> ack!
[09:49] <jxt> mneptok, so what the Nautilus and all the apps open MP3's in QuodLibet when pushing "Media" button on the keyboard still starts Rhythmbox.
[09:49] <mneptok> jxt: that article describes how to alter GNOME's MIME db to change default apps and behavior
[09:49] <livingdaylight> BioGeek: do you use ubuntu?
[09:49] <pse> garryF: It's not.. crucial or anything. It is just weird.
[09:49] <garryF> !wireless > pse
[09:50] <RichEd> morning ... has anyone got experience with docking a live notebook while running ubuntu / edubuntu ... should it pick up external mouse & keyboard by itself ? (screen seemed to be instant) mouse & keyboard seemed to hang this morning
[09:50] <BioGeek> yes, but I don't think it's ubuntu specific
[09:50] <mneptok> you!
[09:50] <pse> I think you misunderstood. It's all wired. Everything works fine, and it's all dandy. Except the hostname just doesn't show up in the list.
[09:51] <BioGeek> livingdaylight: namely: can you link to a particular page in a pdf document?
[09:51] <BioGeek> livingdaylight: or do you know a channel where they can help me better with that?
[09:52] <ic56> pse: look into the linux box's dhcp config.  /etc/dhclient.conf  Probably setting option host-name will cause it tell your router by what name the linux box wishes to be known
[09:52] <linux_user400354> BioGeek, "man pdfinfo"
[09:52] <bahadirt> does postfix come along with ubuntu alternate cd ?
[09:52] <bahadirt> or shld I download it seperately

[09:53] <cyphase> can we get it into edgy?
[09:53] <mneptok> bahadirt: do you have much experience with Postfix?

[09:53] <bahadirt> no any exp. at all :) but I need to install a mail server
[09:54] <linux_user400354> bahadirt, if it comes seperately, you can download the deb and putting it on a floppy disk, or you can easily add ubuntu server as a repository using synaptic and get it from there.
[09:54] <pse> Aha. That did it.
[09:54] <pse> Well, that's... exciting.
[09:54] <mneptok> bahadirt: you might find Exim to be easier to start with *shrug*

[09:55] <pse> Oh.
[09:55] <pse> Hummm.
[09:55] <pse> I didn't realize dhcp could assign names as well.
[09:55] <pse> I guess there's my answer.
[09:55] <polpak> nicholaspaul: sudo chown -R username:username ~/.Trash
[09:55] <section31> how can i find a list of installed packages via apt-get
[09:56] <nicholaspaul> polpak: Thx again!
[09:56] <garryF> !other users but garryF knows less than he appears. he is more a parasite trying to learn while pretending to help!
[09:56] <ic56> pse: yes.  By default, the system administrator doesn't care what the box or the box's user wants.  The admin assigns the correct hostnames via DNS.
[09:56] <garryF> Hmm, can't have fun with Ubotu any more.
[09:56] <pse> Well. Neat. You learn something new everyday. Thanks a bunch.
[09:56] <pse> Ciao, all.
[09:57] <ic56> pse: I mean, of course, the site administrator -- not the individual box's admin
[09:57] <Hexidigital_>  i need help with my CUPS server... i was able to get the KDE print manager to access the CUPS server, but i cannot view the available printers. any ideas?
[09:57] <mneptok> Seveas: he calls it "fun." we call it "reasons to stab garryF in the face"
[09:58] <garryF> Bah Sevaas. Need to lighten up, but I won't make that mitake again.
[09:58] <hyperstream> how do you change your msn nickname in gaim. ive noticed you can set your own alias but it doesnt actually change it to other users who are receieving you IM's
[09:58] <mpathy> Hi there.. How could I output the compilation options used for a ubuntu package?
[09:58] <mneptok> hyperstream: you get a new account.
[09:58] <mpathy> Or is there a website wherer I can look for that?
[09:58] <mneptok> mpathy: LP?
[09:58] <hyperstream> why would you get a new account?
[09:58] <garryF> To much gratituous kicking of regulars.
[09:59] <mpathy> mneptok: Whats LP?
[09:59] <hyperstream> i can just jump into windows xp and change it in MSN
[09:59] <test> Hiya
[09:59] <Hexidigital_> mpathy::  afaik, the Alias is for you to change the names of others, not vice versa
[09:59] <hyperstream> mneptok, so why would i get a new account for everytime i wanna change my msn DISPLAY nickname ?
[09:59] <jxt> mneptok, still doesn't work.
[09:59] <linux_user400354> Hexidigital_ http://localhost:631
[09:59] <test> is there a way to change the mime icons in gnome?
[09:59] <jxt> mneptok, and still -- Media button runs Rhythmbox.
[09:59] <Hexidigital_> linux_user400354::  it's on a remote server
[09:59] <mpathy> mneptok: what alias? dont understand.
[09:59] <mneptok> hyperstream: so you're surprised that a service that is offered by Microsoft has different behavior on Microsoft OSes than it does in apps that are forced to reverse-engineer MS' closed protocols?
[10:00] <mpathy> mneptok: I want to know for example, if package scponly is compiled with --enable-svn-compat
[10:00] <Hexidigital_> linux_user400354::  although, i tried that address w/ the server name, and i got a FORBIDDEN page
[10:01] <test> without recompiling the code i mean.....
[10:01] <linux_user400354> Hexidigital_ then replace localhost with the servers ip. you will have to have it configured for you to be able to administer the cups server.
[10:01] <hyperstream> mneptok, how did you get the impression i was suprised?
[10:01] <mneptok> mpathy: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/i386/scponly/4.6-1
[10:01] <Hexidigital_> linux_user400354::  ok, thanks... i'll take a look
[10:01] <test> this is going to sound stupid but what is microsoft?
[10:01] <hyperstream> why would one have to get a new hotmail/msn account in order to change a nickname ? is my question.
[10:02] <Hexidigital_> test::  are you serious?
[10:02] <hyperstream> Hexidigital_,  ROTF
[10:02] <linux_user400354> test, where have you been all your life?
[10:02] <test> Hexidigital_: Yeah I'm serious. I stay in alot.
[10:02] <hyperstream> mneptok, i mean other MULTI chat clients such as trillian and others can do it.
[10:02] <Hexidigital_> test::  Microsoft is the reason  WE are HERE now!
[10:02] <x3n0n> i.e. microcrap
[10:03] <test> The name sounds stupid.
[10:03] <rob> heh, zealots
[10:03] <test> I was just curious
[10:03] <linux_user400354> test, its a company that copies ideas from other companies and makes money from them
[10:03] <Hexidigital_> test::  btw, Microsoft talk should be taken to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:03] <x3n0n> heh
[10:03] <mneptok> hyperstream: t6hey can change how the display name appears to you. but any user can change how you appear to them.
[10:03] <test> linux_user400354: Okay. Thanks.
[10:03] <ozzloy> asdf
[10:04] <ozzloy> f
[10:04] <hyperstream> mneptok, trillian changes the name so it appears to everyone. gaim doesnt as far as i know and my question once again is can gaim do this ?
[10:04] <test> back to the on topic question? Is there a way to change the gnome mime icons without recompiling?
[10:04] <mneptok> hyperstream: http://gaim.sf.net

[10:05] <garryF> Does that work for tells mneptok? Some user names are virtually obstuficated with similar looking characters and are therefore almost impossible to send tells to.
[10:05] <mneptok> garryF: i have no idea. i don;t use any MS products or services.
[10:06] <nicholaspaul> When i open the trash, there are 3 folders i cant delete...when I use terminal, ls -a shows nothing. What the?
[10:06] <mneptok> (well, except input devices. they have some nice mice.)
[10:06] <mpathy> But is there no easier way? Would be really helpful to have a fast way to check if I can using a ubuntu package instead of compiling it myself
[10:06] <garryF> mneptok Oops, sorry, I ddin't notice.
[10:06] <linux_user400354> section31, i dont see a way its possible with apt-get. you could try "sudo dpkg -l"

[10:10] <brynk> test, you can change them individually or use a different icon theme
[10:10] <drunken-wallaby> hi everyone.
[10:10] <Seveas> garkoil, mount -o loop is what's use for mounting an .iso file
[10:10] <garkoil> oh ok
[10:10] <ozzloy> test
[10:10] <garkoil> I didn't get that from the man
[10:11] <linux_user400354> dont you need fuse to mount an iso?
[10:11] <Seveas> linux_user400354, no
[10:11] <brynk> nope
[10:11] <garryF> Now that's worth saving in my faq Seveas. :)
[10:11] <linux_user400354> has anyone got gmailfs to work in ubuntu?
[10:11] <ozzloy> can anyone see what i'm typing?
[10:11] <test> brynk: i am not sure i want a theme someone else made. Oh have you ever heard of an icon change disabling a mounted drive by chance?
[10:11] <Seveas> ozzloy, no
[10:11] <test> ozzloy: Hiya. Can I help you?
[10:11] <ozzloy> Seveas: thanks
[10:11] <garkoil> ozzloy, we can what you type
[10:11] <ozzloy> haha
[10:11] <ozzloy> sorry test
[10:12] <test> ozzloy: no problems :)
[10:12] <brynk> test:no i haven't since that's impossible
[10:12] <linux_user400354> test, you can make your own theme
[10:12] <brynk> test: anyway, you can make your own icon theme
[10:12] <garryF> Seveas:  Does that work without special fstab entries?
[10:12] <test> brynk: Any idea how difficult it would be?
[10:12] <ozzloy> thanks all
[10:12] <Seveas> garryF, sure, see mount's manpage
[10:12] <drunken-wallaby> i've got a question. i created a small partition (ext3) for which i want that every user on my system can write or read files (just to transfer files quick and easy from one to another account) to this partition. the problem is, that when user A copies a file to the partition, other users can't read this file since it belongs to user A. question: do i need to play with samba to solve this or is there a quick way as well?
[10:13] <garryF> Seveas Thanks!
[10:13] <test> brynk: I could swear changing my cd icon disabled it. hmmm interesting.
[10:13] <linux_user400354> drunken-wallaby "man chmod"
[10:14] <wiking> garryF, what You mean?
[10:14] <linux_user400354> has anyone got gmailFS to work in ubuntu?
[10:14] <hyperstream> drunken-wallaby,  you could set it to like security = share
[10:14] <hyperstream> like a windows network
[10:14] <test> I was wondering about setting up local mail too, but wouldn't know where to start. :)
[10:15] <Alex0r> Whoa, I've been in here all day and I haven't spoken in .. hours
[10:15] <garryF> wiking Was supposed to send you info on installing plugins for totem.
[10:15] <OK8> Is it possible to mount NTFS drives with write support using the liveCD.
[10:15] <linux_user400354> its the software thats supposed to let you mount your gmail space
[10:15] <master5o1> Microsoft = Microshit or Microcock; Windows = Windoesn't or Winfroze;
[10:15] <garryF> I don't think so and ntfs linux write support is risky still.
[10:15] <drunken-wallaby> linux_user400354 i've chmoded the folder 777 already. but newly copied files belong to the user who copies them, though. could this be a thing in /etc/fstab as well?
[10:15] <test> brynk: Can you point me to a place with theme construction info please?
[10:15] <drunken-wallaby> hyperstream where could i set this parameter (security = share)?
[10:16] <linux_user400354> drunken-wallaby chgrp and chown
[10:16] <OK8> damnit
[10:16] <Hexidigital_> !postfix

[10:18] <test> Hexidigital_: I'll let you know how it turns out. :)
[10:18] <Hexidigital_> test::  i look forward to it
[10:19] <OK8> well is it possible to resize the NTFS partition using gnome partition manager. Yesterday I just got a very informative error just plainly stating "unable to"
[10:20] <Hexidigital_> is there a problem with the Wiki 's? i cannot get some of the pages to load
[10:20] <garryF> Probably resizing of ntfs partions via any linux stuff is like writing, still experimental and buggy. Tha'ts my guess that its' disabled by default.
[10:21] <OK8> it seems that resizing ntfs just fails... hmm can't help it then
[10:24] <garryF> Hexidigital_: Do you have a url for a particular wiki that don't work for you that I can try? The ones I tried seem to work?
[10:24] <Hexidigital_> garryF::  nevermind... i got it to work in firefox, but konquerer didn't load it properly
[10:24] <Hexidigital_> garryF::  ty anyway
[10:24] <garryF> Hexidigital_ Grats
[10:31] <test> Hexidigital_: Problem.... I can't find the sas files. :(
[10:33] <Hexidigital_> test::  sorry, i don't know much about postfix... i dont have a mailserver

[10:41] <whadar> amarok is good but dont play good with ubuntu...
[10:42] <ajayc> any other?
[10:42] <mneptok> amadeo1988: you're asking for help with software that you are using unlicensed. not cool.
[10:42] <amadeo1988> I dont understand?
[10:42] <amadeo1988> unlicensed?
[10:42] <mneptok> amadeo1988: Cedega is not a free product
[10:42] <whadar> ajayc: amarok has a playlist called "cool streams" which lists radio stations
[10:42] <amadeo1988> im new to ubuntu, oh? i was told it was.. and was given a link to it
[10:42] <amadeo1988> to download it
[10:42] <mneptok> amadeo1988: and "downloading it off BitTorrent" is not the way to acquire a subscription
[10:43] <ajayc> whadar, get streamtuner
[10:43] <amadeo1988> is bittorrent bad?
[10:43] <ajayc> with xmms
[10:43] <amadeo1988> ive used it before and its worked
[10:43] <bjorn-> amadeo1988: for downloading software it's bad, for screwing over RIAA/MPAA it's good :-P
[10:43] <mneptok> amadeo1988: there's nothing wrong with BitTorrent
[10:43] <nyriador> hi - i'm completely new at using ubuntu, and i need help. i am trying to run easyubuntu, and the application fails to work. i get a long error message in terminal, among which are "errors were encountered while processing - clvm, redhat-cluster-suite & system-config-cluster". Anyone can help? I tried to google the damn thing, to no avail....
[10:43] <amadeo1988> Well can you help me install it?
[10:44] <mneptok> amadeo1988: sorry, i like my karma as-is
[10:44] <whadar> ajayc: you can use as a plugin for xmms?
[10:44] <esher> http://www.worldjumpday.org
[10:44] <finalbeta> amadeo1988, their is a bitorrent client installed on ubuntu
[10:44] <amadeo1988> is there a free alternative to cedega?
[10:44] <amadeo1988> maybe
[10:44] <ajayc> whadar, dunno just do sudo apt-get install streamtuner xmms
[10:45] <mneptok> amadeo1988: you could try the free version of VMWare and run Windows that way
[10:45] <mneptok> *shrug*
[10:45] <garryF> nyriador: Easyubuntu seems to be broken lately. There is also Automatix if I recall, its more complicated, but no guarantee of sucess either.
[10:45] <amadeo1988> how about this wine i keep hearing about
[10:46] <bjorn-> yes, Wine or VMWare Player which is free ..
[10:46] <bjorn-> Windows is not free though
[10:46] <finalbeta> for wine you need to add new repo's, the wine inside the ubuntu repos is way to old again
[10:46] <ajayc> bjorn-, what actuallly is wine plater
[10:46] <ajayc> vmware*
[10:46] <mneptok> yeah, you pay with your sanity
[10:46] <amadeo1988> i know windows isnt free, im running that in dual boot
[10:46] <scott_> hey, ive finally got rid of my ati radeon 9600pro (total crap under linux) and got myself a shiny new nvidia 6800gs, what packages should i uninstall/configs to things to do before i remove my ati and put in my nice shiny new nvidia?
[10:46] <amadeo1988> scott_: Gs is bad brand my friend
[10:47] <bjorn-> ajayc: VMWare Player for running Windows inside ubuntu, like any other application. It's a virtual machine 'player'
[10:47] <Toma-> amadeo1988: qemu is better than vmware imho..
[10:47] <scott_> i have agop
[10:47] <ajayc> bjorn-, its free?
[10:47] <scott_> agp
[10:47] <scott_> so its good
[10:47] <amadeo1988> toma-_ isit free?
[10:47] <amadeo1988> scott_: oh i understand
[10:47] <Toma-> amadeo1988: yep.
[10:47] <mneptok> Toma-: Qemu is an emulator. VMare is not.
[10:47] <nyriador> garryF: thanks. I was told to stay clear of automatix, but i'll give it a try. however, i'm concerned that something is broken somewhere in ubuntu - i remember an error message while trying to add/remove applications. i wonder if it all could be related.
[10:47] <kristian> it there a new ati driver howto coming?
[10:47] <bjorn-> ajayc: yes, vmware.com ..i'm not sure if you need the vmware server to create hte image though .. but htere are lots of free images there
[10:47] <amadeo1988> Qemu is it easy for a ubuntu n00b?
[10:47] <Toma-> amadeo1988: its also, "free as in speech" apart from the kernel module you can use with it
[10:47] <mneptok> nyriador: i would recommend you stay away from any automated scripts
[10:48] <Toma-> !qemu
[10:48] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[10:48] <Toma-> amadeo1988: have a look ^^^
[10:48] <amadeo1988> i will
[10:48] <nyriador> mneptok: yeah. i'm starting to think i'd better....
[10:48] <amadeo1988> i want to run world of warcraft and fps's on linux thats all
[10:48] <mneptok> nyriador: those things are the fscking *bane* of my existence. i loathe them.
[10:48] <finalbeta> xen has announced collaboration with microsoft, perhaps we will be able to run Xp as a guest
[10:48] <Toma-> amadeo1988: WoW works perfectly under Wine. i wouldnt run any games thu vmware or qemu
[10:49] <mneptok> nyriador: often time the authors make some *really* bad decisions
[10:49] <paloyme> what is the extension used in firefox so i can browse websites that require ie?
[10:49] <amadeo1988> can someone link me to wine, i just looked at sourceforge and the fiels are no longer hosted
[10:49] <Toma-> !wine
[10:49] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:49] <garryF> nyriador I totally agree, yes, it could be related too.
[10:49] <ajayc> whadar, COOOL its ultimate it allows to record too
[10:49] <ajayc> :)
[10:50] <mneptok> nyriador: this is one of my favorite examples of just how stupid those automated scripts can be: "sudo sed -ie '/^%admin/s/ALL$/NOPASSWD: ALL/' /etc/sudoers"
[10:50] <garryF> !info wine
[10:50] <ubotu> wine: Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.9.9-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 8578 kB, installed size 40460 kB
[10:50] <mneptok> nyriador: that turns off the need for sudo to require a password, but they don't set -e, so if the script fails, sudo will never require a password again. unbelievably horrid.
[10:50] <scott_> plus amadeo1988 its a 'golden sample' edition with a core clock speed of an extra 100mhz
[10:50] <cobelloy> hello, does anyone know how to get ubuntu to see my tv tuner card?
[10:51] <nyriador> mneptok: that's rather dumb... wonder why they'd do that in the first place.
[10:51] <garryF> Wow That is an issue.
[10:51] <Toma-> amadeo1988: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[10:52] <mneptok> nyriador: because often the authors of these scripts are adherents to the Microsoft "features over security and correctness" coding ideals
[10:52] <nyriador> garryF: if it is related... how do i fix ubuntu? i mean, if error were encountered with processing packages with dpkg.... how do i undo the errors?
[10:52] <nyriador> mneptok  - kinda defeats the point of being on linux,..
[10:52] <CaptainMorgan> yay... I love seeing new packages waiting to be updated..
[10:53] <garryF> Hmmm, I dunno, sorry. I think the scripts are broken rather than your Linux.
[10:53] <mneptok> nyriador: which is why those scripts are the bane of my existence, and why we do not recommend them ;)
[10:53] <garryF> The script easyubuntu used to be so handy, tis a shame they fell into such a state.
[10:53] <nyriador> garryF: so how do you go about fixing a script? (i mean, if you have a good link or something, that'd do too - i'm just not very good at this - yet)
[10:54] <dcnstrct> damnit the ubuntu disk image is < 700megs and won't fit on to any of my cds :(
[10:54] <mneptok> nyriador: why use a script? just use Synaptic and be happy.
[10:54] <dcnstrct> err >
[10:54] <garryF> nyriador Would have to know enough about ecriptingo to understand it.
[10:54] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, yeah, it got bumped up over 650Mb with the latest release
[10:55] <garryF> well, it did it all in one step and took alot of guesswork out of installing codecs and drivers one at a time via synaptek.
[10:55] <dcnstrct> Madpilot, which release is < 700megs ? I'd like to use it then just upgrade my software with apt-get
[10:55] <garryF> Moot point now. Synaptek is easier than trying to mess with scripts.
[10:55] <webharvey2002> hi all
[10:56] <mneptok> dcnstrct: any of the server images will work
[10:56] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, hm, the basic Ubuntu ISO is 697Mb
[10:56] <dcnstrct> Madpilot, not according to windows
[10:56] <nyriador> garryF: guess i'll try synaptic and do it the long way - anyways, better to learn how things work right now...
[10:56] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, it is according to Ubuntu - either Windows is smoking crack, or there's something wrong with your download
[10:56] <mneptok> nyriador: what goals do you want to accomplish first?
[10:56] <webharvey2002> could anyone tell me, how to deinstall grub? i have an win and ubuntu partition and wants to delete the unbunt for a new installation, thx
[10:56] <dcnstrct> windows says its (731,744,256 bytes)
[10:57] <dcnstrct> no doubt the M$ people have been hitting the rock
[10:57] <garryF> say nyriador Good luck, it will at least be an opportunity to learn more about Ubuntu.
[10:57] <mneptok> webharvey2002: boot to Windows, open a command prompt and type "fdisk mbr"
[10:57] <dcnstrct> never the less it won't fit on a 700meg cd
[10:57] <nyriador> mneptok: well. i want to be able to install the multimedia codecs - music, mainly
[10:57] <garryF> grr, oops.
[10:57] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, no, remember that 1Mb is NOT 1000bytes, but 1024
[10:57] <SGL> Hello
[10:57] <nyriador> garryF: exactly. and thanks :)
[10:57] <OK8> hey is there any way I could download some software/packet with apt-get to get video codecs up and running
[10:57] <mneptok> nyriador: install gstreamer-plugins-ugly from the Universe repo
[10:57] <webharvey2002> mneptok: i tried but didn't found the fdisk (dir fdisk*.* /s)
[10:58] <garryF> nyriador welcome.
[10:58] <SGL> Is installing programs in Ubuntu and Xubuntu the same???
[10:58] <dcnstrct> Madpilot, then maybe these 700meg cds are not really 700 megs
[10:58] <dcnstrct> I'll try the server image
[10:58] <rpedro> SGL: yes
[10:58] <dcnstrct> if I use the server image what do I have to do to get it to be a desktop ?
[10:58] <mneptok> webharvey2002: then boot off the Windows install CD and do it
[10:58] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, well, they should be... the ones I've got are, and the Ubuntu ISO fits nicely
[10:58] <SGL> Is installing programs in Ubuntu and Xubuntu the same???
[10:58] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, you'd just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, that should get you everything
[10:58] <dcnstrct> Madpilot, these are compUSA brand, they probably can't count.
[10:59] <bla|patrick> may someone help me modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[10:59] <dcnstrct> excellent, thanks for the help guys
[10:59] <bla|patrick> i dont get it
[10:59] <Madpilot> dcnstrct, mine are Maxwell, guess they can count... ;)
[10:59] <bla|patrick> i cant even find a tutorial how to apply those new libraries
[10:59] <webharvey2002> mneptoK. a thx, i try it, bye
[10:59] <bla|patrick> it still demands old ones :|
[10:59] <mneptok> omg. bla|patrick!
[10:59] <webharvey2002> cul8r
[10:59] <Madpilot> bla|patrick, what're you trying to do, exactly?
[10:59] <bla|patrick> its all about swt gtk libraires
[11:00] <bla|patrick> i installed azureus and it asks eacht stat installing version 3232
[11:00] <nyriador> mneptok - will do. now, i took a screenshot of the error message the terminal gave me while i was trying to get easyubuntu to run. it says at some point "dependency problem prevent config of redhat-cluster-suite"and something about "clvm not configured yet" - is that a problem? i'm just concerned this issue will re-appear at some point, with something more significant than easyubuntu.
[11:00] <bla|patrick> but java still only finds 3139
[11:00] <bla|patrick> and azurues updater fails to update that library path
[11:01] <bla|patrick> i have 3232 manually placed to where the old files are
[11:01] <bla|patrick> same folder
[11:01] <garryF> Strange, that redhat should even be there. Redhat <> Debian distro far as I know.
[11:01] <bla|patrick>  /usr/share/jni
[11:01] <nyriador> also something about "clvm could not connect to cluster manager"
[11:01] <nyriador> garryF: I know. that's what i thought. i'm really confused.
[11:01] <nyriador> garryF: kinda screwed me up.
[11:01] <garryF> as I would be confused as well.
[11:02] <mneptok> nyriador: just ignore what those horrendous scripts tell you. don't worry about problems you don't have. ;)
[11:02] <linux_user400354> why cant i resize my logical volumes using gparted?
[11:02] <f4rbr0r^kAll3> ubuntu!
[11:02] <tristan_> Is the USB TV tuner key made by Toshiba is compatible with Linux?
[11:02] <garryF> Possibly becaue logical volumes are not the same as the actual partitions?
[11:03] <garryF> !lvm
[11:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about lvm - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:03] <nyriador> mneptok: well, then i'm off to see if i can install those codecs manually. i'll be back later - probably... anyways, thanks for the help guys.
[11:03] <mneptok> nyriador: gstreamer-plugins-ugly is what you want
[11:03] <linux_user400354> ubotu is stupid
[11:04] <garryF> Maybe it had a lot of obsolete info removed.
[11:05] <linux_user400354> maybe i have to use qtparted and use knoppix instead of ubuntu live cd
[11:05] <bla|patrick> mneptok: u dont have an idea what to do, do you? :(
[11:05] <bla|patrick> none of that documentations describe how to modify that library
[11:05] <bla|patrick> all they say is that i have to do it
[11:05] <bla|patrick> to solve this issue :|
[11:05] <garryF> Might work. >ots of folks have been able to fix stuff via knoppix stuff.
[11:08] <roger21> hi
[11:08] <mpathy> made a bounty out of my problem ;) https://launchpad.net/bounties/compilation-options-checker 1. why is it get outputted without any line wrap? thats ugly 2. would have been "specifications" the better place for that?
[11:08] <sanna_> : I
[11:08] <mneptok> bla|patrick: how did you install the lib?
[11:09] <roger21> i tried to install lilo over grub but all i got at boot is "Loading Linux................................................................."
[11:09] <mneptok> bla|patrick: did you pull the current version out of Synaptic?
[11:09] <roger21> and nothing
[11:09] <nyriador> mneptok - i just tried installing the gstreamer libraries, and here is the message i got : E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[11:09] <nyriador> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[11:09] <nyriador> E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[11:09] <roger21> someone has an idea ?
[11:09] <Scissor> Hallo all
[11:09] <nyriador> what gives?
[11:09] <mneptok> nyriador: sounds like that script hosed your repos
[11:09] <nyriador> dammit. reinstall?
[11:10] <bla|patrick> ya that version is outdated
[11:10] <KenSentMe> !lilo
[11:10] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[11:10] <bla|patrick> and i still have not found a repo that may solve this problem
[11:10] <mneptok> nyriador: look in /etc/apt and see what you have relating to sources.list
[11:10] <bla|patrick> mneptok: first i tried to let azurues do it
[11:10] <f4rbr0r^kAll3> :|
[11:10] <mneptok> bla|patrick: that version works fine on all the machines i have
[11:10] <bla|patrick> then i searched via find for the old libs
[11:10] <bla|patrick> mneptok: its just that azureus menus dont work
[11:11] <Scissor> I have a problem! I installed a postfix, and now I have problem with inet_interface!
[11:11] <bla|patrick> they actually work, but not all of em
[11:11] <bla|patrick> buttons dont show function an this stupid complaining each start is annoying too
[11:11] <phlexy> hey, does anyone know why I can't connect to the network/internet on this laptop (I just installed dapper on it). It has a card that's detatchable, but I plug it in - ubuntu detects it in device manager but clearly it doesn't know what to do with it.
[11:11] <mneptok> bla|patrick: i use the GTK/SWT libs provided by apt, and i seem to have no issues with Azureus
[11:11] <phlexy> I tried turning off dhcp and filling in ip's manually, but that didn't fix it either o_O
[11:11] <bla|patrick> azureus 2.4.0.2?
[11:12] <mneptok> phlexy: not every 802.11x chipset is supported by Linux. which do you have?
[11:12] <phlexy> it'll tell me on the back of the card mneptok?
[11:12] <mneptok> bla|patrick: dunno, i don;t have Azureus installed here at the office. i can check when i get home in 3 hours or so.
[11:12] <phlexy> how do I find out :P
[11:12] <ShaunES> Question: How do I get a verbose or step by step setup for a livecd?
[11:12] <ShaunES> I've got Alternative 6.06.
[11:12] <mneptok> phlexy: probably not. you'd have to check the manufacturer's site.
[11:13] <bla|patrick> well i had problems with the buttons of that sliding notifiy on the down right
[11:13] <bla|patrick> i had to install the latest beta
[11:13] <bla|patrick> and then it started to complain about outdated libs
[11:13] <sanna_> :l
[11:13] <bla|patrick> libs that are needed for working properly
[11:13] <bla|patrick> hi sanna_ :)

[11:15] <mneptok> SGL: AFAIK, mysql-server is in Main, and should not require additional repos
[11:15] <Subhuman> SGL, its in main, try a "sudo apt-get update"
[11:15] <SGL> ok
[11:16] <GreySim> Hello. Question time! Anyone know the "proper" way to change the hostname? I always thought it was editing /etc/hosts, but apparently I was incredibly wrong, and I don't wanna just blindly tinker around with stuff and break sudo again. >.<
[11:16] <phlexy> mneptok: here's the site with the details, I don't think it tells me what I want to know though :P http://www.intel.com/support/network/xc/adapter/cce10100/sb/cs-008616.htm
[11:16] <SGL> updating now

[11:16] <GreySim> Subhuman: Thanks!
[11:17] <Subhuman> GreySim, then go to the general tab.
[11:17] <spydr> is there an equivalent method via the CLI to change the hostname?
[11:18] <mneptok> phlexy: which of those 4 models do you have?
[11:18] <Flannel> !tell spydr about hostname
[11:18] <SGL> after the update I still get: "couldn't find package mysql-server"
[11:18] <mneptok> spydr: edit /etc/hosts
[11:18] <GreySim> Thank you kindly, and apparently I have to re-login.
[11:18] <SGL> ARGH

[11:25] <Flannel> mixandgo: right, packages.ubuntu.com
[11:25] <mixandgo> Flannel, that search is not arch specific
[11:26] <ardchoille> shinobi2: enable universe, then sudo apt-get install mc
[11:26] <mixandgo> you can only search for files in packages based on arch
[11:26] <mneptok> mixandgo: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/amd64
[11:26] <Flannel> mixandgo: once youre AT the package, at the bottom, it lists archs
[11:26] <Flannel> mixandgo: search for the package, on the packages page, it'll tell you the arches
[11:26] <shinobi2> ardchoille: thx
[11:27] <ardchoille> shinobi2: You're welcome :)
[11:27] <shinobi2> if 'iwconfig' did not show a wlan0 interface, does that mean my card wireless card is not detected?

[11:28] <mixandgo> Flannel, is dapper an older release or something ? cause some of the packages I am searching are a bit old
[11:28] <mneptok> ShaunES: that's not very clear? what OS is installed *now*?
[11:28] <ShaunES> mneptok, a broken ass OS X.
[11:29] <mneptok> ShaunES: and you want to read HFS+ from a LiveCD? good luck.
[11:29] <ShaunES> mneptok, I can read it with both these.
[11:29] <Flannel> mixandgo: dapper is the current stable release.  versions are frozen a month or so before the release itself.  So they won't be cutting edge, but shouldn't be too old either.  which package?  version numbers are sometimes odd to read anyway.
[11:29] <mneptok> ShaunES: have you run Disk Utility from the OSX install CD/DVD?
[11:30] <mixandgo> Flannel, eclipse-sdk ! I got 3.2 on gentoo
[11:30] <mixandgo> Flannel, on ubuntu I see there is 3.1
[11:30] <ShaunES> mneptok, it keeps saying it has lost connection with the daemon.

[11:39] <Skorm>   bla|patrick  *person
[11:39] <bla|patrick> :D
[11:39] <Flannel> mixandgo: 3.2 was released june8, after Dapper.
[11:39] <bla|patrick> well... however... the latest beta made the menus clickable again
[11:39] <Skorm> bla|patrick: my english would be worse than yours
[11:39] <GreySim> ShaunES, if you don't want to install anything, you could go into System -> Administration -> Shared Folders and set up a Samba share...
[11:39] <bla|patrick> and that notifyslider was hiding on hidebutton again
[11:39] <mixandgo> Flannel, meaning ? why is it not in the packages list ?
[11:39] <bla|patrick> Skorm: english isnt my native language either
[11:39] <OK8> hm. What do I have to do to get xvids to work?
[11:39] <cli> spydr: yes /etc/hosts file holds your host name
[11:39] <ShaunES> GreySim, I can't get into the gui. If I use the normal install, it freezes on a brown screen.
[11:39] <Skorm> bla|patrick: my isn't your you'll still beat me
[11:39] <bla|patrick> dont know... dont think so :)
[11:39] <sn00p> How do I uninstall gnome in ubuntu?
[11:39] <Flannel> !tell mixandgo about release
[11:39] <Kira> What CD size do I need to burn Ubuntu 6.06 desktop?
[11:39] <Kira> 700 MB?
[11:39] <ShaunES> Yeah/.
[11:39] <mixandgo> Flannel, so you have to wait 6 months for a package to install a package ? can't you just update your package list ?
[11:39] <nvez> yep.
[11:39] <Kira> dang
[11:39] <Flannel> mixandgo: meaning, since it wasn't released before March, it wouldn't have been in Dapper.  You'll have to wait for edgy to get it from the repositories.
[11:39] <Kira> I only have 650 MB ones.
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: sudo apt-get --purge remove libgnome32 libgnome2-common
[11:39] <KenSentMe> Is it possible to run firefox with the userrights of root but with the profile of the main user?
[11:39] <nvez> Kira, umm, you could try netboot install images?
[11:39] <nvez> :)
[11:39] <Flannel> mixandgo: versions of all packages are frozen per each release. (except bugfixes/security updates)
[11:39] <mneptok> Flannel: not necessarily. the new version may well be added to dapper's repos.
[11:39] <bla|patrick> KenSentMe: go to terminal
[11:39] <bla|patrick> sudo firefox :)
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, is it safe?
[11:39] <bla|patrick> oh
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: then remove the rest from synaptic if anything is left
[11:39] <KenSentMe> bla|patrick: but then it runs with the root profile
[11:39] <bla|patrick> the profile.. should read to the end before posting
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, synaptic is part of gnome?
[11:39] <roniez> Has anybody here played around with JAIL in kbuntu/ubuntu?
[11:39] <roniez> from http://www.jmcresearch.com/projects/jail/
[11:39] <bla|patrick> cant u choose in about config the path to the profile?
[11:39] <Flannel> Kira: you can also download the server ISO, then get the desktop that way
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: not sure. use aptitude if so
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: I have synaptic but not gnome
[11:39] <Flannel> mixandgo: it's not a "wait six months" thing, it's a deadline thing.  things that aren't released before X date most likely don't get put in this release (there are exceptions)
[11:39] <Flannel> sn00p: no, synaptic is just a program
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, how do I remove it w hen i'm still in gnome?
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: you shouldn't do that
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, well how do I remove it outside of gnome?
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: do you intend not to use X windows anymore?
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: I told you
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: sudo apt-get --purge remove libgnome32 libgnome2-common
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, no I will use X and KDE
[11:39] <mixandgo> Flannel, I think I am gonna go ahead and give ubuntu a try :D tho I have a happy gentoo !
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, thats what i'm doing
[11:39] <sn00p> mwe, but i'm inside gnome
[11:39] <mwe> sn00p: then remove the rest from aptitude if anything is left
[11:40] <mwe> sn00p: bad idea
[11:40] <mixandgo> Flannel, I miss some packages on gentoo amd64
[11:40] <bla|patrick> but doesnt synaptic still needs gnome libraries?
[11:40] <mixandgo> Flannel, hope I can find them on ubuntu !
[11:40] <Flannel> mixandgo: you can always compile them.
[11:40] <mwe> sn00p: are you not going to use something else instead of gnome?
[11:40] <mixandgo> Flannel, by the way, does flash plugin work on ubuntu ?
[11:40] <mixandgo> Flannel, amd64 I mean
[11:40] <sn00p> mwe, yes kde
[11:40] <mwe> sn00p: then do it from kde instead
[11:40] <Flannel> mixandgo: no idea.  I don't even have a GUI.
[11:40] <shinobi2> i have my wireless card turn off during installation,  how can run an installation for the wireless card?
[11:41] <sn00p> well I may have to reinstall ubuntu
[11:41] <mixandgo> Flannel, so why are you using ubuntu then :D
[11:41] <mwe> sn00p: why would that be?
[11:41] <bla|patrick> btw that swt 3.2 stable can be found here: http://www.eclipse.org/swt/
[11:41] <bla|patrick> but i have no idea what i shall do with those files :|
[11:41] <shinobi2> i didn't know my card was turned off
[11:42] <sn00p> lol
[11:42] <sn00p> kde3 is huge
[11:42] <sn00p> half a gig
[11:42] <mwe> sn00p: you don't need all the krap
[11:42] <mwe> sn00p: just get kdebase for starters
[11:43] <sn00p> oh
[11:43] <sn00p> well it dont matter i'm on cable
[11:43] <mwe> sn00p: kubuntu-desktop install _alot_ of krap
[11:43] <mneptok> must ... be ... desktop ... agnostic ...
[11:48] <javiolo> is there any wifi intrusion detector
[11:48] <KenSentMe> bla|patrick: no, in about:config you can't choose a profile. With firefox -ProfileManager you can select a profile, but that's only the profile of the user you are running, so with sudo it's root
[11:49] <someothernick> anyone use waste? or know where there is a how to on installing it for Ubuntu
[11:49] <javiolo> !waste
[11:49] <ubotu> I know nothing about waste - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:49] <bla|patrick> KenSentMe: sorry then i have no idea...
[11:49] <bla|patrick> not using FF that much
[11:50] <Alex0r> AHHHH MY PC IS BEING SUB7ED
[11:50] <Xorlev> http://bash.org/?665807 <-- THIS COULD BE YOU!
[11:50] <Xorlev> Sub7'd? That's so 2000.
[11:50] <Xorlev> And for Windows no less.
[11:50] <Subhuman> sub7 is still about
[11:50] <Alex0r> I'm on windows, because i broke my ubuntu
[11:50] <Subhuman> @??
[11:51] <Alex0r> I don't even know how I got it, but damn, my pc is messed up now
[11:51] <Xorlev> I used sub7 when I was thirteen. I'm in college now.
[11:51] <mneptok> only a Windows user would refer to stuff as "My _____"
[11:51] <Xorlev> Sub7 is a trojan, and only someone connecting to it would do the damage.
[11:51] <KenSentMe> bla|patrick: well i only want to remove some search engines, but the default ones can't be deleted and i think that's because they're not installed by a user but by default
[11:51] <KenSentMe> bla|patrick: the searchenginehack doesn't work here
[11:51] <Xorlev> Alex0r FAILS!
[11:51] <Alex0r> I got it through some myg0t people on cs: source
[11:52] <Xorlev> You FAIL!
[11:52] <Alex0r> I fails!
[11:52] <Gasolin_> [ HELP]  $depmod -a  command shows Could not open directory /lib/module/2.6.15-23-386.
[11:52] <Xorlev> Get out a rope or razor, and remember, down the road not across.
[11:52] <Gasolin_> (I've only 2.6.15-25-386 directory).
[11:52] <mneptok> "I just gave you Sub7. Want fries with that?"
[11:52] <randomized> hi all
[11:53] <amadeo1988> hey.. question, when i click on places and them my computer i want my hdd's to pop up.. only they don't and they used too, how do i re-add them
[11:53] <someothernick> hello randomized
[11:53] <mwe> Gasolin_: huh? even sudo depmod -a?
[11:53] <bla|patrick> KenSentMe: well... i am a opera user... i have no idea about that
[11:54] <mwe> Gasolin_: it sounds like you deleted something you shouldn't have
[11:55] <Gasolin_> mmm..... where can I point lib.25 instead .23 ?
[11:55] <mwe> Gasolin_: you can't. your kernel needs modules that match it's version. what does uname -r say?
[11:56] <Gasolin_> 2.6.15-23-386........
[11:57] <Gasolin_> actually I'm in #chroot mode through desktop cd
[11:57] <b14ck> what was the package that unpacked *.rar?
[11:57] <mwe> Gasolin_: that wont work I think. where are you chrooted to?
[11:57] <hyperstream> Alex0r, lawl. i ride with japsclan, we 'pwn' myg0at :)
[11:57] <Gasolin_> I've 2 kernel version installed on hard drive(23, 25)
[11:57] <mwe> Gasolin_: what are you trying to do?
[11:58] <Alex0r> heh
[11:58] <Alex0r> dont kill my pc
[11:58] <Alex0r> please
[11:58] <Alex0r> its already borked
[11:58] <hyperstream> huh?
[11:58] <mwe> Gasolin_: you boot a live cd and try to depmod -a your installed linux system?
[11:58] <Gasolin_> sudo chroot mnt/sda1
[11:58] <mwe> Gasolin_: that wont work
[11:58] <void^> use depmod 2.6.15-25-386
[11:58] <mwe> Gasolin_: you cannot depmod from a different kernel
[11:58] <void^> you can, just have to specify the version
[11:58] <b14ck> how can i unpack *.rar?
[11:59] <Gasolin_> I boot a live cd , mount sda1 , and chroot sda1
[11:59] <void^> b14ck: with unrar
[11:59] <noiesmo> b14ck, install rar then do rar -e file.rar think its in restricted ie universe or multiverse repo
[12:00] <b14ck> void^: ty
[12:00] <b14ck> noiesmo: thanx
[12:00] <mwe> Gasolin_: I guess you can depmod a different kernel afterall then, if you specify the version
[12:00] <oggis> mmhrpf
[12:02] <gypsymauro> hello
[12:02] <Gasolin_> I do the depmod version and it work, now my recovery mode is passed........but in prompt I can't usemy usb mouse/kbd(that's why I need live CD now)
[12:03] <mwe> Gasolin_: well maybe the modules are not loaded
[12:04] <mwe> Gasolin_: you need the usb modules to load
[12:04] <gypsymauro> I'm trying to install vserver on dapper but I've a lot of problems, I tried to install the patch shiped with dapper but the apply fails, then I downloaded the sources of kernel of ubuntu and try to apply vserver patch but fails again, last try I downloaded the already done vserver kernel @ http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu but it freezes after gdm login (normal kernel works)
[12:04] <gypsymauro> any hint?
[12:04] <redblades> Where does Ubuntu keep it's logs?
[12:04] <noiesmo> /var/log
[12:04] <redblades> for Apache specifically
[12:04] <redblades> thqanks
[12:05] <florian> hi, i want to create a directory for every line in a file. How can I do that?
[12:05] <Gasolin_> yes, I've edit /etc/modules to load
[12:05] <Gasolin_> 1p
[12:05] <Gasolin_> uhci-hcd
[12:05] <Gasolin_> ohci-hcd
[12:05] <Gasolin_> mousedev
[12:05] <Gasolin_> usbmouse
[12:05] <Gasolin_> usbkbd
[12:05] <Gasolin_> psmouse
[12:05] <mwe> Gasolin_: you need to do it in the broken system
[12:05] <mwe> Gasolin_: this just list's what's loaded on the live cd
[12:06] <ardchoille> florian: I think you'd be better off using sed in a bash script for that
[12:06] <poje> florian: writing a shell script is probably the easiest way
[12:06] <Gasolin_> its done after
[12:06] <Gasolin_>  #sudo chroot /mnt/sda1, so I think this file is in the broken system
[12:07] <[Jonne] > Hi, i'm running Dapper, and when I last did apt-get upgrade, apt returned to me that 4 packages will be kept back. they're basicly the kernel packages (for 387, and K7)
[12:07] <[Jonne] > is that normal?
[12:07] <mwe> florian: for i in <filename>; do mkdir $i; done
[12:07] <[Jonne] > *386, obviously
[12:07] <mwe> florian: that might work
[12:07] <noiesmo> [Jonne] , yes
[12:07] <mwe> Gasolin_: it's not
[12:07] <ardchoille> [Jonne] : Yes, that is normal. You can install those held back packages with: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:07] <mwe> Gasolin_: you need to boot the broken system
[12:08] <[Jonne] > ah, ok
[12:08] <noiesmo> [Jonne] , you can do a apt-get dist-upgrade and it will upgrade kernel etc but if alls good just do apt-get upgrade
[12:08] <[Jonne] > thanks
[12:08] <florian> thx all, I'll try that
[12:08] <[Jonne] > it just didn't seem obvious to me
[12:10] <Gasolin_> mwe: if I boot the broken system directly, usb kbd/mouse will not be available. So I'm not sure what you mean?
[12:10] <mwe> Gasolin_: I was thinking of using a different keyboard. if you don't have one make sure those module names are mentioned in /etc/modules
[12:11] <mwe> bbl
[12:11] <ShaunES> jesus christ this is goddamn useless.
[12:11] <ShaunES> I just want to fucking get data off this hard drive, and it can't even do that.
[12:12] <cpk2> ShaunES: is it dying?
[12:12] <Flannel> !language
[12:12] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:12] <ShaunES> Thank you for your help Flannel! Oh wait.
[12:12] <SGL> what is the "ipconfig" for linux?
[12:12] <ShaunES> ifconfig
[12:12] <Gasolin_> mwe: I'm using Dell 2.7G, it doesn't have PS/2 port but USB only, I'm using a USB-to-PS/2(2 port) adapter to link my kbd/mouse
[12:12] <SGL> thanks!
[12:13] <Flannel> ShaunES: now now, no need to lose all sense of maturity.  Just because I can't help you.
[12:13] <ShaunES> cpk2, using ubuntu-6.06-desktop-powerpc it freezes when starting the sound daemon. Can't stop that.
[12:14] <wahjava> hi channel
[12:14] <Gasolin_> mwe: I can use kbd in GRUB or Bios, but not not work in Ubuntu GUI
[12:15] <ShaunES> I have ubuntu-6.06-alternate-powerpc, but I can't do anything with it.
[12:15] <wahjava> USB disk doesn't appear in Konqueror after attaching
[12:15] <wahjava> I'm on Kubuntu 6.06 (AMD64)
[12:15] <wahjava> while I'm able to mount it from command line
[12:16] <ShaunES> I just want to get access to my file system, and put it on a usb key.
[12:18] <mneptok> ShaunES: you want the desktop cd, not the alternate
[12:18] <alyn3d> hello there.... I have a problem with Adept....
[12:18] <ShaunES> mneptok, I've got that here too, and was told I needed alternate yesterday.
[12:19] <ShaunES> It keeps freezing on the brown screen, apparently I need to move "esd" before it tries to use it.
[12:19] <jonttu87> is there some 4 gb file size limit in NFS?
[12:20] <jonttu87> i can't transfer big files over nfs
[12:20] <ShaunES> Yeah.
[12:20] <jonttu87> :(
[12:20] <bla|patrick> bye ... its gonna be hot here... about 34C
[12:20] <jonttu87> what should i use then?
[12:20] <jonttu87> sshfs?
[12:20] <jonttu87> samba?
[12:20] <bla|patrick> be back this evening
[12:21] <alyn3d> i try to remove or add any package with Adept, and it gives me the "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. " error. Any ideas? when I try to use apt-get from the command line, it says that "package metamonitor is in a state of damage"... or something like this..... what can I do ?
[12:22] <Lynoure> jonttu87: I don't know whether there is a limit.. .I try to avoid nfs when I can. What  to use depends on what kind of use you are thinking about.
[12:22] <Veer> k
[12:22] <ShaunES> mneptok, so using desktop, how do I stop it from trying to access esd?
[12:22] <void^> nfs version 3 can handle files larger than 4gb
[12:23] <rv> join #winehq
[12:23] <neenaoffline> alyn3d: try #ubuntu-motu
[12:24] <mneptok> ShaunES: why is a sound subsystem a problem?
[12:24] <alyn3d> neenaoffline, and if I use Kubuntu ?
[12:24] <alyn3d> what channel should I try ?
[12:24] <ShaunES> mneptok, no idea, but that's apprently the problem.
[12:25] <ShaunES> It freezes at a consistent spot every time, and it's consistent with what I've read about it.
[12:26] <alyn3d> oki, I think I found it, its #kubuntu
[12:27] <jonttu87> Lynoure I'm using nfs now for accessing my server.. might sshfs be a better idea?
[12:27] <mneptok> ShaunES: what kind of Mac?
[12:27] <ShaunES> mneptok, iMac G5 first gen (no iSight)
[12:28] <roger21> i succed in booting with lilo but vga=792 make no readable display somebody knows why ?
[12:28] <mneptok> ShaunES: weird, i know people using 6.06 with the iMac G5r1
[12:28] <Lynoure> jonttu87: this is a tad old (two years) but could be relevant for you: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/arch-storage/part2/section-121.html
[12:28] <roger21> (vga=792 is th right setting for my display btw)
[12:29] <Lynoure> jonttu87: I meant whether you routinely download and upload large files or whether it's just an occasionaly need.
[12:29] <jonttu87> it's a routine
[12:29] <ardchoille> roger21: Are you sure vga=792 is correct? I use vga=791 and it looks nice at that res
[12:30] <roger21> actually vga=791 don't work either
[12:30] <roger21> with lilo
[12:30] <ardchoille> roger21: Ok, I am guessing lilo settings are different than grub
[12:30] <ShaunES> mneptok, well... I dunno. I can boot into rescue mode, and it bitches when I select any of the options, but I can execute commands in that built in mini-shell thing
[12:31] <Enverex> hmm, I just plugged in one of my SATA drives but it's not being assigned a /dev/sdx ...
[12:31] <roger21> ardchoille, well it is not the case for vga
[12:32] <mneptok> ShaunES: so then use that to scp files to a remote machine running an ssh server
[12:33] <ShaunES> mneptok, I don't know how, it's the shell off the install thing. It doesn't even have ping.
[12:33] <roger21> perhaps
[12:33] <Lynoure> jonttu87: but, yeah, sshfs could do it for you, worth trying, will not be worse than nfs at least (IMO)
[12:35] <l33t> yo
[12:35] <Enverex> hmm, I just plugged in one of my SATA drives but it's not being assigned a /dev/sdx ... any ideas why not? It shows up in dmesg as [17186719.264000]  nv_sata: Secondary device added but doesn't do anything about it
[12:36] <mwe> Enverex: you probably need to load a kernel module then. I wouldn't know the name though
[12:36] <Enverex> hmmm, the weird thing is it worked the other day
[12:36] <ardchoille> I am using openbox as my window manager because it has a much nicer and configurable desktop menu. Here's a screenshot: http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/6126/openboxso2.png . I wrote a little tutorial on how to set this up if anyone is interested: http://natsci.eckerd.edu/~bordelsr/gnomehelp/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Gnome212.WindowManager
[12:36] <mwe> Enverex: I see
[12:37] <mwe> Enverex: what changed?
[12:38] <Enverex> mwe, erm, there was a newer kernel brought out (.25, the ubuntu one I mean)
[12:38] <mwe> ardchoille: put it on wiki.ubuntu.com maybe?
[12:38] <mwe> Enverex: hmm
[12:38] <ardchoille> mwe: That is an excellent idea, I'll do that. Thank you :)
[12:39] <mwe> Enverex: I'd make sure the right modules are loaded
[12:39] <mwe> Enverex: I don't know what would cause to autoload in the old kernel and not the new though, unless it's missing in the new kernel for some reason
[12:39] <darkowl> Hello
[12:40] <darkowl> I have a problem with playing wmv files in totem
[12:40] <darkowl> Can anyone help ?
[12:40] <patrick_king> does any one know to up samba to be a domain controller and allow xp to use roming profiles
[12:40] <mwe> darkowl: have you installed w32codes?
[12:40] <ardchoille> darkowl: What is the problem?
[12:40] <darkowl> mwe: yes...
[12:40] <mwe> darkowl: I don't know then
[12:41] <darkowl> ardchoille: i installed all codecs and i can play all files except wmv
[12:41] <Matthai> hi, is there any list of default ports for apllications like rdesktop, xmule, etc... I want to know which ports to open
[12:41] <darkowl> it plays for two seconds and exit
[12:42] <mwe> darkowl: I think the codecs don't work with some wmv 9 files
[12:42] <ardchoille> darkowl: I have found that with some wmv files, some of them play fine, some play and quit before they are supposed to, and others won't play at all. Blame Microsoft.
[12:42] <darkowl> mwe, ardchoille : is there any fix for that ? Other program maybe ?
[12:42] <jonttu87> Lynoure: tried to mount sshfs now, im getting "fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied"
[12:42] <mwe> it's a known issue
[12:42] <jonttu87> what actually IS fusermount? :D
[12:42] <mwe> darkowl: no not that I know of
[12:42] <ardchoille> darkowl: Not that I know of :(
[12:43] <mwe> darkowl: maybe if you run windows media player in wine
[12:43] <mwe> darkowl: I think it uses it's own codecs
[12:43] <darkowl> mwe, ardchoille : OK...tnx...Ill find some converter...
[12:44] <patrick_king> can anyone give me an  ip of    a dns server
[12:44] <mwe> darkowl: it will probably degrade the quality though
[12:44] <Lynoure> jonttu87: If oyu are happy with nfs, and if you just occasionally need to get a 4G things from there, no sense moving away from it just for that... That's why I asked.
[12:44] <Lynoure> jonttu87: Haven't ran into that myself, google wasn't useful?
[12:44] <amarokker> Does anyone know why opera is so slow on dapper?
 Don't use the lords name in vain.
[12:44] <mwe> amarokker: it's plenty fast here
[12:45] <ShaunES> I'm already going to hell, whatcha gonna do buddy?
[12:45] <amarokker> i thought first, it could've been a problem with 9.02beta- so i switched back to static version - and its still slow
[12:45] <mwe> amarokker: do you mean the start up time or in general?
[12:46] <Lynoure> jonttu87: do you have fuse in your kernel?
[12:46] <amarokker> mwe: not really- the rendering of pages mostly...if I click open a link in a new tab- it might take ages to load- yeah, i have a bad habit of opening bout 20 tabs at a time- but the performance on breezy/windows have been far much better even when i'd opened more than 20 tabs.
[12:46] <gnomefreak> ShaunES: Jesus dont argue. if you want to continue an  offtopic talk move it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:46] <amarokker> mwe: - yeah, start up is slow too
[12:47] <magical_trevsky> hi, could anyone tell me what bash command I would need to delete all files in a folder that were created today and contain a certain word in their filename?
[12:47] <ardchoille> mwe: Can I pm you for a second?
[12:47] <mwe> amarokker: I don't know. the start up time could be because if you run gnome it has to load the qt libs first. Like I said it works fast enough here though
[12:48] <mwe> ardchoille: ok
[12:48] <jonttu87> Lynoure i added "fuse" in /etc/modules now.. i should reboot now ?
[12:50] <amarokker> mwe: - ah, i use gnome. is it the same with fluxbox? come to think of it, i remember the performance being slightly better on kde
[12:50] <K-J158> hi
[12:51] <patrick_king> has anyone used samba as a domain controller
[12:51] <K-J158> someone can help me with amsn ? i would like to a font which can shows the arabic characters
[12:51] <K-J158> i try "lucida" but it doesn't work
[12:52] <K-J158> i've to eat.. cya
[12:52] <burzum_> hi
[12:52] <mwe> amarokker: well once the libs are loaded after the initial start up performance should be the same in gnome and kde unless you are really low on ram or sth
[12:53] <amarokker> 1gb- i'd say not much, but still decent.
[12:53] <zoidberg> hey there guys
[12:53] <redblades> Hey there you!
[12:54] <zoidberg> hey redblades
[12:54] <mwe> hi!
[12:54] <zoidberg> i have a question for u
[12:54] <amarokker> mwe: no matter- still beats firefox- when it comes to functionality- the feature i like most is the search shortcuts- i think they have it in kde too..but its not as convenient.
[12:54] <zoidberg> guys i have a question
[12:54] <zoidberg> can anyone help me out
[12:54] <amarokker> zoidberg: haha...then give it to us straight.

[12:55] <Lynoure> jonttu87: modprobe should be enough
[12:55] <redblades> Well, update.
[12:55] <zoidberg> doesnt that mean that my cireless connection is working
[12:55] <mwe> zoidberg: why di you install the old version of ubuntu?
[12:55] <zoidberg> in a sense
[12:55] <redblades> google, breezy to dapper upgrade
[12:55] <zoidberg> i installed it coz i had it
[12:55] <Lynoure> jonttu87: Sorry, I'm at work, only looking at irc occasionally
[12:56] <zoidberg> specs on this latop are a lil old
[12:56] <redblades> zoidberg, if you now have internet access, upgrade to dapper.

[01:01] <forevertheuni> for example gstreamer0.10-pitfdll I don't have that package :/
[01:02] <forevertheuni> redblades, yeps..I don't have them
[01:02] <forevertheuni> redblades, just like w32codec
[01:03] <redblades> forevertheuni, I'm sorry, what don't you have?
[01:03] <zoidberg> subhuman i'm doing it right now
[01:03] <zoidberg> soryr this laptop is a lil slow
[01:03] <forevertheuni> w32codecs package for example and xvid too
[01:04] <forevertheuni> redblades, ok w32codecs I've read how to install
[01:04] <Enverex> I just plugged in one of my SATA drives but it's not being assigned a /dev/sdx ... any ideas why not? It shows up in dmesg as [17186719.264000]  nv_sata: Secondary device added but doesn't do anything about it
[01:04] <redblades> And have you?
[01:05] <kbrooks> I need a full URL for a package.... Any hints?
[01:05] <zoidberg> hey subhuman
[01:05] <forevertheuni> oh other thing I installed multiverse and I don't have any package from it.universe is working fine
[01:06] <zoidberg> i'm going to restart my computer soon
[01:06] <zoidberg> i have one more question for u guys
[01:06] <RShadow> whats the file I need to change to stop the motd from displaying?
[01:06] <kbrooks> ask it zoidberg
[01:06] <zoidberg> since this machine is a lil old...only has 64 mb ram....is it better to run KDE (kubuntu) than Gnome
[01:06] <zoidberg> i heard KDE is lighter
[01:06] <zoidberg> ?
[01:07] <brutopia_> zoidberg: xfce might work best for you
[01:07] <zoidberg> btw is 64 mb ram on a G3 powerbook
[01:07] <Ng> zoidberg: you probably don't want either with that little ram, try xfce
[01:07] <RShadow> zoidberg, I actualy think Gnome is lighter.. your best best for that amount of ram however would be xfce or fluxbox
[01:07] <zoidberg> xfce or fluxbox
[01:07] <zoidberg> are they still decent though ...ubuntu like interface?
[01:07] <RAOF> zoidberg, try xubuntu-desktop
[01:08] <RShadow> zoidberg, personaly I prefer fluxbox as I think xfce looks doopey.. but thats just my preference
[01:08] <ardchoille> I am writing up a wiki page. Which website is the best one for explaining how to add univrse/multiverse repos?
[01:08] <zoidberg> alright guys
[01:08] <zoidberg> thanx a lot
[01:08] <zoidberg> i'll be back in a sec
[01:08] <gnomefreak> !repos

[01:08] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: ^^^
[01:08] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: Thank you :)
[01:08] <RShadow> nobody knows how to turn off the motd from displaying? I knew there is a config file.. but I can't remember were ubuntu keeps it
[01:09] <forevertheuni> !easysource

[01:09] <forevertheuni> ubotu, I've read that already
[01:09] <ubotu> I know nothing about I've read that already - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu

[01:10] <netventure> rshadown:
[01:10] <netventure> rshadown: it;s in /etc/motd
[01:10] <netventure> just move it to /etc/motd.orig or sumtin
[01:11] <Enverex> Where is the page to request packages to be made or synced with debian?
[01:12] <RShadow> netventure, ya.. I can do that.. but I thought there was an rc config file that had a setting to show it or not.. I'll just move it tho
[01:12] <someothernick> can anyone help me install waste?
[01:13] <netventure> hmm
[01:13] <netventure> I never thought of that
[01:13] <netventure> think I'll look it up
[01:14] <patrick_king> has anyone used samba as a domain controller
[01:14] <someothernick> is there any apps like waste that might be in repos?
[01:14] <RShadow> netventure, let me know if you find something :) I can't locate it.. perhaps it doesn't exist on ubuntu
[01:14] <forevertheuni> bah my multiverse doesn't work :/ I don't have anypackages from it
[01:15] <forevertheuni> :/
[01:15] <forevertheuni> I've uncommented that 2 lines..
[01:15] <forevertheuni> and apt-get update
[01:15] <IdleOne> forevertheuni, enable it
[01:15] <forevertheuni> i've done it
[01:15] <forevertheuni> in adept too
[01:15] <forevertheuni> and checked the file with vim
[01:15] <patrick_king> today is going very slow

[01:17] <forevertheuni> hmmm
[01:17] <K-J158> hmm
[01:17] <K-J158> i retry.. :D
[01:17] <forevertheuni> it's backports?
[01:17] <forevertheuni> Enverex, it's backports?
[01:17] <K-J158> i would like a font which can shows the arabic characters for amsn on ubuntu
[01:18] <Enverex> I just removed all of them then added each of the four back via the add option and ticked all the boxes for each

[01:19] <futlib> hi, I have a funky problem with all gtk programs:
[01:19] <futlib> The program 'xchat' received an X Window System error.
[01:19] <futlib> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[01:19] <futlib> The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
[01:19] <futlib> and so on
[01:19] <zoidberg> you guys are brilliant
[01:19] <zoidberg> i love you guys
[01:19] <zoidberg> worked like a charm

[01:22] <iGotNoTime> not what I needed :(
[01:23] <erlen1> $sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxxx,password=zzzzz //192.168.1.160/D:\ /mnt/laptop
[01:23] <erlen1> Is this the corect command if i wanna mount a disc from a windows machine on this computer?
[01:23] <iGotNoTime> no it is limited to html and php
[01:23] <futlib> frogzoo: I don't think that it is really a memory issue, I have 400 MB of free ram
[01:23] <IdleOne> iGotNoTime, search ion packages.ubuntu.com
[01:23] <iGotNoTime> did that too :(
[01:23] <IdleOne> :(
[01:24] <iGotNoTime> thanks anyway :)
[01:24] <dj_baggio> hmm...my kdetv lagging when I use it. What I should do? I have athlon 2000xp+ and in windows my tv card working great :) No laggs etc. :)

[01:25] <iGotNoTime> ahhh
[01:26] <erlen1> could anyone please help me with how to mount over network? Im a new Linux/ubuntu user. Any help would be very much appriciated, please PM me :)

[01:26] <futlib> frogzoo: I used kde today, and found out that I couldn't use gtk applications from there. I thought it was a kde problem and switched back to gnome, but now the error is there too
[01:26] <iGotNoTime> no most of that is video settings
[01:26] <futlib> frogzoo: I'm using prelink btw, this could be the cause, couldn't it?
[01:27] <iGotNoTime> it's no big deal I still have XP on my laptop
[01:27] <frogzoo> futlib: oh definately - is this breezy or dapper?
[01:27] <gregg__> futlib: you should definitely be able to use GTK applications in KDE
[01:27] <IdleOne> iGotNoTime, Im sure there is an app to do what you want . just hamg around and ask again later
[01:27] <iGotNoTime> I might try Edu channel :)
[01:27] <Subhuman> zoidberg, im still here
[01:28] <iGotNoTime> maybe K knows
[01:28] <Subhuman> was jus making lunch :P
[01:28] <futlib> frogzoo: it's dapper
[01:29] <futlib> frogzoo: but as I said, this happened during kde usage. btw, gaim still works
[01:29] <futlib> but everything else doesn't
[01:29] <K-J158> how show the arabic characters in amsn ?

[01:31] <futlib> frogzoo: how can I undo prelinking?
[01:31] <IdleOne> johan_,  you can install gparted from apt-get
[01:31] <Gasten> When I try to connect to quakenet, it sais that I cot a trojan and should clen my PC. Is this some kind of Ubuntu-specific problem , or do I actually got a trojan (I do not know if I got one, but I'm pretty sure that I aint infected).?
[01:31] <Enverex> Is anyone else having issues with hot swapping SATA drives?
[01:32] <frogzoo> futlib: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/prelink/+bug/31135 - might want to confirm that bug if you can
[01:32] <xan> Hi,
[01:32] <Gasten> hi
[01:32] <johan_> What's the name of that package where I can save my debian package state, install a program with lots of dependecies and then go back to the previous state?
[01:32] <xan> I installed 6.06 and I installed xubuntu-desktop, then usplash turns me xubuntu-splash when I turn-off system
[01:33] <frogzoo> futlib: prelink just uninstalls through usual 'dpkg --purge' - the issue is you may need to reinstall /lib/ld-2.3.6.so
[01:33] <xan> How can I turn me ubuntu-usplash at shutdown?
[01:33] <burzum_> when i try to access one of my sata drives i get the message "cant run pmount"
[01:33] <futlib> frogzoo: oh, this will hurt, a LOT of stuff will depend on it
[01:33] <frogzoo> futlib: yuppers
[01:33] <burzum_> and i get the message that /dev/sdb1 is no switchable device
[01:34] <futlib> frogzoo: so I can basically install dapper from scratch as well
[01:34] <sladen> burzum_: pmount is for removal drivers.  For a fixe drive, put it in /etc/fstab
[01:34] <anosa> xan, try sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
[01:34] <gregg__> futlib: prelink -u
[01:35] <xan> ok, trying...
[01:35] <gregg__> Revert binaries and libraries to their original content before they were prelinked.
[01:35] <johan_> I tried to format one of my partitions with gparted, but it tells me that at least one partition on the drive is mounted, but I have / and /home on the same drive, so I can't really unmount them. What do I do?
[01:35] <futlib> gregg__: how to use it? with what files?
[01:35] <sladen> Enverex: !just ask
[01:35] <frogzoo> futlib: try removing prelink & then reinstalling kernel-image-686 and initramfs-tools - & u should be right, fingers x'd
[01:36] <gregg__> futlib: all libaries and binaries you've prelinked
[01:36] <Enverex> sladen, I did and no-one seemed to notice, heh
[01:36] <xan> Thanks, it seems to work:
[01:36] <xan> There are 2 alternatives which provide `usplash-artwork.so'.
[01:36] <xan>   Selection    Alternative

[01:37] <xan> Another question anosa
[01:37] <anosa> yeah??
[01:37] <gregg__> futlib: prelink -au
[01:38] <xan> The resolution of my tty1, tty2, etc is very low
[01:38] <sladen> Enverex: you didn't actually say anything about the problem that *you* are having.  that is what you need to ask about.  Not the problems that anyone else /might/ be having...
[01:38] <xan> I tried vga=771 in kernel
[01:38] <futlib> frogzoo: then reboot?
[01:38] <frogzoo> gregg__: dpkg --purge takes care of the unprelink
[01:38] <xan> but then no usplash displayed
[01:38] <frogzoo> futlib: sure
[01:38] <sladen> Enverex: "is anyone eating icecream" doesn't help me find my icecream in the freezer
[01:38] <gregg__> frogzoo: oh, ok :)
[01:38] <xan> Is any way for achieve that?
[01:38] <Enverex> sladen, I have, twice, I just wanted to know if anyone else was having an issue with it
[01:38] <Enverex> fine
[01:38] <Enverex> I just plugged in one of my SATA drives but it's not being assigned a /dev/sdx ... any ideas why not? It shows up in dmesg as [17186719.264000]  nv_sata: Secondary device added but doesn't do anything about it
[01:38] <futlib> and what about the binaries I have allready prelinked? won't I have to unprelink them?
[01:39] <frogzoo> futlib: when you uninstall prelink, the pkg runs prelink -au
[01:39] <futlib> gregg__: saw it now, didn't scroll with the flow, so...
[01:39] <futlib> frogzoo: very cool
[01:39] <anosa> xan, u better ask ev'rybody in the channe, coz i have no idea 'bout that, sorry
[01:39] <sladen> Enverex: what happens if you do  sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc   (or whatever the next one would be).  Do you see the partition table on that drive
[01:39] <xan> ;-(
[01:40] <xan> Well, okay
[01:40] <whadar> hello again
[01:40] <xan> soorry I have to go
[01:40] <xan> bye
[01:40] <whadar> i cant cd into a davfs mounted directory....
[01:40] <anosa> xan, don't be so sad
[01:40] <Enverex> sladen, Nothing happens, it's not in /dev/ so it can't anyway
[01:40] <whadar> anyone's got a clue on that?
[01:40] <anosa> ask more n more and you'll get the answer
[01:41] <zoidberg> hey Subhuman are u there i have a question?
[01:41] <sladen> Enverex: so, for some reasons udev isn't seeing it
[01:41] <bintut> anyone here familiar with Wincor Nixdorf ND210 printer and on what driver to use in setting with CUPS connected as /dev/lp0?
[01:41] <whadar> bash: cd: dav: Operation not permitted
[01:41] <frogzoo> whadar: ls -ld dav
[01:42] <futlib> frogzoo: how am I supposed to reinstall initramfs tools? a bunch of packages depend on it
[01:42] <[zero] > what program should I use to copy a cd which has both music and a video on?
[01:42] <whadar> frogzoo... ls ls is working good
[01:42] <whadar> but cd doesnt
[01:42] <frogzoo> futlib: apt-get --reinstall
[01:42] <zoidberg> hey guys
[01:42] <futlib> okay, thanks
[01:42] <zoidberg> what is a good DVD player for ubuntu
[01:42] <zoidberg> ?
[01:42] <zoidberg> i cant get ogle to install
[01:43] <IdleOne> [zero] , you can try gnomebaker or K3B
[01:43] <jrib> zoidberg: xine is good too but what happens with ogle?
[01:43] <sladen> Enverex: what does   grep . /sys/bus/scsi/devices/*/block/removable   show you?
[01:43] <sladen> Enverex: how many entries?
[01:43] <frogzoo> zoidberg: I like gxine
[01:43] <whadar> ls -ld : drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 0000-12-31 02:20 dav
[01:43] <[zero] > thankx idleone
[01:43] <Enverex> sladen, 0
[01:44] <Paladine> ok ubuntu clearly has its silly head on today
[01:44] <zoidberg> it says that the following packages
[01:44] <zoidberg> are disabled
[01:44] <frogzoo> whadar: mount |grep dav
[01:44] <zoidberg> sorry
[01:44] <sladen> Enverex: zero entries?
[01:44] <Paladine> why is autoupdate telling me to install the -26 kernel image and headers
[01:44] <zoidberg> it says the following packages have unment dependencies
[01:44] <futlib> rebooting now, I hope it works
[01:44] <Paladine> they are already installed
[01:44] <Enverex> sladen, It just echos the number 0
[01:44] <whadar> http://www.box.net/dav on /media/dav type coda (rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid,device=/dev/davfs0,user=root)

[01:44] <jrib> zoidberg: can you put the full error on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[01:44] <zoidberg> liba 52.0 a is not installable
[01:44] <sladen> Enverex: okay, so it's seeing one, non-removal device
[01:45] <anosa> Paladine, yes it happened to me
[01:45] <bintut> anyone here familiar with Wincor Nixdorf ND210 printer <http://tinyurl.com/pn7jr> and on what driver to use in setting with CUPS connected as /dev/lp0?
[01:45] <sladen> Enverex: what is your main disk, is that sata, or ide?
[01:45] <Paladine> anosa, you find out why?
[01:45] <Enverex> SATA (sda1/2/3)
[01:45] <Enverex> sladen,  SATA (sda1/2/3)
[01:45] <anosa> i'm trying to find out
[01:45] <Paladine> bintut where did you aquire a Wincor printer from?
[01:46] <Paladine> last I knew they were not on the general consumer market
[01:46] <whadar> frogzoo: anything bad with that?
[01:46] <zoidberg> one more question guys
[01:46] <sladen> Enverex: have you tried rebooting with the external sata drive connected?
[01:46] <frogzoo> whadar: dunno - if there was, mount shouldn't have mounted it...
[01:47] <whadar> :)
[01:47] <zoidberg> i was preivously talking to you guys about me just recently installing ubuntu badger on a G3 powerbook with only 64 mb ram
[01:47] <Enverex> sladen, No doubt that would work but I need it now without rebooting, heh
[01:47] <whadar> frogzoo: well thanks anyway
[01:47] <whadar> :)
[01:47] <zoidberg> every one suggested that i use either xfce
[01:47] <zoidberg> or another one
[01:47] <zoidberg> i forget the other one
[01:47] <zoidberg> flushbox?
[01:47] <Warbo> fluxbox
[01:47] <whadar> flux
[01:47] <Paladine> I just found out yesterday that metacity sucks
[01:47] <IdleOne> fluxbox or icewm
[01:48] <zoidberg> are both of those small and easy to install
[01:48] <Paladine> it doesn't follow the WM standards
[01:48] <Warbo> Or E16, or WindowMaker
[01:48] <Gasten> Paladine: ???
[01:48] <jrib> zoidberg: are you familiar with apt-get?
[01:48] <IdleOne> zoidberg, all are installable from apt-get IIRC
[01:48] <Paladine> Gasten, it doesn't allow you to add a bunch of _NET_WM_STATE settings
[01:48] <sladen> Enverex: well, you can try restarting udev   sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart
[01:48] <Warbo> zoidberg: You just install the package, like for example "sudo apt-get install fluxbox" then choose your session as fluxbox on the login screen
[01:48] <Paladine> like "hidden" for example
[01:49] <sladen> Enverex: well, you can try restarting hal   sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
[01:49] <zoidberg> ok
[01:49] <sladen> zoidberg: try xubuntu on the powerbook
[01:49] <zoidberg> i know how to use apt-get
[01:49] <bintut> Paladine: from a local reseller.
[01:49] <zoidberg> what about xfce
[01:49] <jrib> zoidberg: for xubuntu there are iso's you can use
[01:49] <Paladine> Gasten -  wmctrl -i -r 0x2000003 -b add,hidden  <- that should hide my xchat window, and doesn't
[01:49] <jrib> !xubuntu > zoidberg
[01:49] <zoidberg> i guess fluxbox is just an emulator then?
[01:50] <Warbo> zoidberg: xubuntu will give you XFCE automatically, no need to install it afterwards like with the others
[01:50] <Gasten> By the way, you who have been here a while: what is going to be updated in the nex release (whe Ubuntu is not Dapper)? Always changing? What can I expect?
[01:50] <Paladine> bintut, I doubt you will be able to find a generic driver you will have to contact wincor themselves
[01:50] <Warbo> zoidberg: They are window managers
[01:50] <Skorm> zoidberg: basically, open a terminal then go "apt-get install yourprogramnamehere"
[01:50] <Gasten> Paladine: Ah.
[01:50] <IdleOne> zoidberg, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will install XFCE with eye candy :)
[01:50] <Gasten> Skorm: SUDO apt-get.
[01:50] <Skorm> xD
[01:51] <Skorm> I login as root usually so I always forget
[01:51] <zoidberg> so xubuntu is not another linux distribution like KUBUNTU?
[01:51] <Enverex> sladen, neither hal or hald exist
[01:51] <Paladine> bintut, I have a lot of experience with Wincor and they do things in some very strange ways
[01:51] <Warbo> zoidberg: Yes it is, sort of a sub-distro
[01:51] <Skorm> zoidberg: there all the same distro, just differnt window mangers
[01:51] <bintut> Paladine: i already sent an e-mail but they don't know.. they just push on selling their own POS system which i don't need
[01:51] <IdleOne> zoidberg, it's ubuntu with XFCE
[01:51] <Skorm> like Warbo said
[01:51] <zoidberg> cool
[01:51] <Skorm> differnt look, thats all
[01:51] <bintut> Paladine: oh my.
[01:52] <zoidberg> but i dont have to wipe my hard drive and reboot with a XUBUNTU iso cd then if i use apt-get install?
[01:52] <Paladine> bintut, I just finished consulting on a HUGE (one of the biggest in the world) POS/BOS rollouts this spring
[01:52] <Skorm> zoidberg: no
[01:52] <IdleOne> zoidberg, thats correct
[01:52] <Paladine> it used a lot of Wincor kit
[01:52] <zoidberg> wow
[01:52] <Warbo> zoidberg: If you already have Ubuntu/Kubuntu then you can just install the xubuntu-desktop package
[01:52] <zoidberg> thats awesome
[01:52] <zoidberg> well
[01:52] <Skorm> zoidberg: Thats the power of linux
[01:52] <zoidberg> i was also thinking of perhaps getting rid of ubuntu totally on this laptop
[01:52] <bintut> Paladine: oh, cool!  what about?
[01:52] <zoidberg> the reason is
[01:52] <futlib> frogzoo: the uninstall script didn't execute prelink -au, I am doing it manually now
[01:53] <bintut> Paladine: care to pmsg?
[01:53] <zoidberg> ubuntu is like taking up 3 gigs just for startes
[01:53] <futlib> but I get a bunch of "Could not find one of the dependencies" errors
[01:53] <zoidberg> and i only i have like 6.5 gigs on this hard drive
[01:53] <zoidberg> ?
[01:53] <frogzoo> futlib: oops, my bad, soz
[01:53] <Paladine> bintut, it was for an oil company.  They just finished rolling out a new enterprise system in the UK and france
[01:53] <Warbo> zoidberg: Well, "just for starters" also includes office suites and stuff you know
[01:53] <IdleOne> zoidberg, thats plenty unless you plan on storring alot of mp3's or sumthing
[01:53] <Skorm> zoidberg: If you want, you can install ubuntu in a way in which you only choose certain things, tohugh its fairly hard
[01:53] <dungodung> I installed php5 via synaptic but it won't support CLI.. how do I fix that?
[01:53] <zoidberg> oh
[01:53] <CokeNCode> ok, i'm having this problem with lynx, and also opera, i'm starting a download, directly from hak5.org (their podcast), and it gets like halfway, and then stops... can anyone help me with that. It works fine with firefox.
[01:54] <bintut> Paladine: wow! i pressume that's a big project, right?  :)
[01:54] <CokeNCode> does lynx support resuming ... ?
[01:54] <zoidberg> i understnad that certain stuff such as open office and other apps are included
[01:54] <Skorm> CokeNCode: treid wget?
[01:54] <Paladine> bintut, about 100M USD worth of project yeah
[01:54] <zoidberg> but do u think there might be another linux os out there that requires less space for the BASE OS system
[01:54] <zoidberg> ?
[01:54] <zoidberg> or is it not worth it?
[01:54] <Warbo> CokeNCode: Use "copy link location" or something, then paste it into "wget -c URL"
[01:54] <jrib> dungodung: php5-cli
[01:54] <Skorm> zoidberg: there are, but they don't included any features
[01:55] <CokeNCode> Skorm hmmmm good suggestion ... but does 'wget' support resuming ?
[01:55] <dungodung> jrib: right
[01:55] <Warbo> zoidberg: You can easily remove the packages which are taking up space
[01:55] <Paladine> bintut, were they trying to sell you their NAMOS system?
[01:55] <zoidberg> cool
[01:55] <zoidberg> ok
[01:55] <frogzoo> futlib: which deps are missing? sounds ugly
[01:55] <IdleOne> zoidberg, stick with ubuntu. best community support by far
[01:55] <zoidberg> thats true
[01:55] <sladen> Enverex: see the following line:   sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
[01:55] <LordElph> I've got a windows shared directory mounted onto a linux server with samba. If I modify a file in the shared dir on windows, I often get an immediate notification that the file has changed and should be reloaded. This occurs in all text editors which support such a feature, leaving me to believe it's either samba, or another process on the server doing this. Anyone got any clues as to what is going
[01:55] <LordElph>  on?
[01:55] <zoidberg> i have ubuntu on my dektop
[01:55] <zoidberg> and use it all the time
[01:55] <dungodung> jrib: thanks.
[01:55] <futlib> frogzoo: xpcshell, firefox-bin mozilla-bin and so on
[01:55] <zoidberg> i just got this laptoop
[01:55] <Warbo> CokeNCode: The "-c" is for "continue" (I always use it, since when the connection dies I often just press up to get the same command back, but without -c it just starts again)
[01:55] <zoidberg> the community is great though
[01:55] <futlib> /usr/sbin/prelink.bin: /usr/lib/klibc/bin/nfsmount: Using /lib/klibc-t2jM36h7OcxUNTDzncfER2p7kd4.so, not /lib/ld-linux.so.2 as dynamic linker

[01:55] <futlib> sorry, lot of messages
[01:56] <zoidberg> the best support community i've seen
[01:56] <futlib> I'll pastebin them
[01:56] <bintut> Paladine: sort of.
[01:56] <sladen> LordElph: in Unix you can request to be notified of changes to a directory.  this is what is happening
[01:56] <Paladine> bintut, hehe I have soooo many manuals here for NAMOS :)
[01:56] <lophyte> sladen: you can? how do you do that? o_o
[01:56] <Enverex> sladen, It ran but I still only have sda in /dev
[01:56] <LordElph> sladen: can I turn it off for particular mount points?
[01:56] <Paladine> bintut join #paladine
[01:56] <bintut> Paladine: i'm trying to make this ND210 work on a customed linux based POS
[01:58] <LordElph> sladen: I don't think it's that - Windows hasn't mounted a samba share, I should be getting notifications from the server - it's like the server is actually touching file right after I save it locally on my Windows shared dir
[01:58] <LordElph> s/should/should not/
[01:58] <kbrooks> Does dos have mkdir? and cd?
[01:58] <zoidberg> what are the terminal commands for removing an application?
[01:58] <kbrooks> zoidberg: apt-get remove app
[01:58] <Warbo> kbrooks: cd yes, I don't know about mkdir
[01:59] <Subhuman> zoidberg, im back no
[01:59] <frogzoo> futlib: try reinstalling libc6
[01:59] <sladen> LordElph: so, on the windows machine, you modify a file, and then the text-editor on the Linux machine tells you that the file has changed?
[01:59] <IdleOne> apt-get --purge appname
[01:59] <jrib> zoidberg: add --purge to remove config files as well
[01:59] <Subhuman> and its sudo apt-get remove applicationname
[01:59] <Warbo> kbrooks: You can't cd to a drive though, just use it's letter as the command
[01:59] <kbrooks> yeah it has mkdir
[01:59] <kbrooks> Warbo: i wasnt talking about that.
[01:59] <frogzoo> futlib: did the unprelink finish?
[02:00] <sladen> kbrooks: you can 'cd' to where a drive has been _put_ (Mounted), but not to a drive itself...
[02:00] <futlib> frogzoo: yeah, with errors
[02:00] <kbrooks> sladen: DOS, not UNIX
[02:00] <kbrooks> *smacks sladen*
[02:00] <frogzoo> futlib: k, now reinstall libc6
[02:00] <futlib> done
[02:00] <Warbo> sladen: Drive letters? In Linux?
[02:01] <frogzoo> futlib: or won't dpkg cooperate?
[02:01] <kbrooks> sladen: there are no drive letters in Linux
[02:01] <futlib> frogzoo: I reinstalled libc, but same issue
[02:01] <futlib> after that
[02:01] <sladen> kbrooks: s/can/can't/
[02:01] <futlib> frogzoo: well, one of the two strange behaviours
[02:01] <futlib> one is the badalloc error
[02:02] <futlib> the other is that the windows goes up, but seems to hang up and never get's redrawn
[02:02] <zoidberg> guys so i tried to apt-get install xubuntu-dektop
[02:02] <zoidberg> and i get a whole bunch of package dependency errors
[02:02] <jrib> zoidberg: desktop has an s
[02:02] <zoidberg> lol
[02:03] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: You awake?
[02:03] <zoidberg> yeah
[02:03] <zoidberg> i typed it in right in the terminal
[02:03] <Warbo> zoidberg: Try doing it in aptitude, that makes it easier to fix broken packages
[02:03] <zoidberg> how do i do that from the term?
[02:03] <zoidberg> or can i do that from the terminal?
[02:03] <Warbo> zoidberg: "sudo aptitude" then use / to search, + to mark for installation and b to find broken stuff
[02:03] <ardchoille> New wiki page for anyone who is interested: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Replace_Metacity_with_Openbox_in_gnome
[02:04] <frogzoo> futlib: dunno, reinstall's looking promising
[02:04] <Subhuman> zoidberg, if you havea  gui use Synaptic
[02:04] <jrib> zoidberg: you can pastebin your errors too on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[02:04] <Warbo> ardchoille: I BET that gets put on help.ubuntu.com/community :)
[02:04] <Subhuman> zoidberg, itz in system/admin.synaptic
[02:04] <futlib> frogzoo: I'm just trying to pastebin the prelink errors
[02:04] <LordElph> sladen: no, I modify the file on windows, and if I switch focus to another app and come back, the editor will tell me the file has been modified, do I want to reload etc
[02:04] <ardchoille> Warbo: Really?
[02:05] <frogzoo> futlib: the reinstall kernel, tools & libc6 worked for me on breezy, no probs: waiting on pastebin
[02:05] <sladen> LordElph: the editor on which operating system?
[02:05] <futlib> here
[02:05] <futlib> http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/app/view/227
[02:05] <futlib> gnome-terminal is not listed there, the application I'm using for tests all the wy
[02:05] <Warbo> ardchoille: I have had loads of pages moved. I think the community help site is focused completely on tweaks and hints, whilst the Wiki is getting full of MarketingTem and ArtworkTeam stuff and things
[02:06] <LordElph> sladen: Windows
[02:06] <LordElph> sladen: the directory I'm writing to happens to be mounted on the server with smbfs
[02:06] <ardchoille> Warbo: Oh, I don't care if it gets moved.. so long as it benefits the community i some way
[02:06] <whadar> can i mount as a user?
[02:06] <whadar> and not as root?
[02:06] <futlib> in this order, I did: uninstall prelink; remove the cronjob and apt.conf; reinstall my initramfs-tools; reinstall my kernel; reboot; install prelink; run prelink -au; reinstall libc6; run prelink -au
[02:07] <Warbo> whadar: In the "Computer" place yes, for anything else probably not
[02:07] <sladen> whadar: yes, removalble drives are done like that with 'pmount'.  non-removable user-mounted drives must be set with the 'user' flag in /etc/fstab
[02:07] <whadar> http://www.box.net/dav /media/dav   davfs user,auto   0   0
[02:08] <whadar> should this entry in fstab be enough?
[02:09] <Enverex> sladen, It ran but I still only have sda in /dev < So any other ideas? heh
[02:09] <futlib> incomiiing!
[02:09] <zaida> hi
[02:10] <Warbo> hello
[02:10] <J_P> hi all
[02:10] <zaida> there'isn't ubuntu.it?
[02:10] <Warbo> !it
[02:10] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:10] <Warbo> oops, website not IRC :)
[02:10] <osfameron> !xgl
[02:10] <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
[02:10] <zaida> thanks
[02:11] <frogzoo> whadar: not according to man mount - doesn't understand davfs, only coda
[02:12] <futlib> frogzoo: so what would you recommend? reinstalling is an option, and I think that it would be faster than trying to fix the bug
[02:13] <snorre> Anyone know what directory modprobe looks in for modules?
[02:14] <bjorn-> hmm, when I do a 'Connect to server' in the Places menu, where does it mount (if I want to access it from the shell)
[02:14] <zoidberg> so i tried synaptic and basically the same problem...it says that certain packages have unresolvable dependencies and it says to make sure all required repositories are added and enabled in prefences?
[02:15] <frogzoo> futlib: that's probably the best way
[02:15] <jrib> zoidberg: pastebin the errors as well as the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list and give us the URL
[02:15] <frogzoo> sob

[02:16] <void1> Hello folks.

[02:17] <void1> I'd like to configure my 17" Monitor, but I dont have any idea what the HoriSync and VerticalSync -values are. Is there something that can autodetect it?
[02:17] <Enverex> sladen, It worked yesterday, lol

[02:17] <Enverex> sladen, The only change I'm aware of since then was the automated kernel update
[02:17] <whadar> this explains....

[02:18] <whadar> sladen: where?
[02:18] <sladen> Enverex: oh *right*.  So this is a regression.  In which case, can you file it *quickly* and put regression in the subject line, so that the person who made the change can know about it quickly
[02:19] <sladen> Enverex: is this 6.06 LTS?
[02:19] <Enverex> sladen, I'm not POSITIVE it's that though, that's the only thing that I'm aware changed though
[02:19] <Enverex> sladen, Yes

[02:27] <zoidberg> did u guys get the link?
[02:27] <jrib> zoidberg: did you put /etc/apt/sources.list up too?
[02:28] <zoidberg> no how do i get to that?
[02:28] <zoidberg> sorry for being such a dumbass by the way
[02:28] <jrib> zoidberg: are you in gnome now?
[02:28] <zoidberg> yes
[02:28] <cpk2> zoidberg: type "cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:28] <cpk2> "
[02:28] <cpk2> and copy paste the output
[02:28] <ksenk_getriebe> hi
[02:31] <zoidberg> u want me to type that in GNOME
[02:31] <zoidberg> i get no such file or directory
[02:31] <zoidberg> when i type that in terminal
[02:31] <jrib> zoidberg: are you sure there are no typos?
[02:32] <zoidberg> sorry
[02:32] <Paladine> so anyone know why autoupdate wants me to reinstall -26 kernel image and headers?
[02:32] <zoidberg> there was a typo i wrote source instead of sources
[02:32] <zoidberg> okay what do u want now
[02:33] <jrib> zoidberg: the url for the pastebin
[02:33] <zoidberg> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18349
[02:33] <zoidberg> wait do u want the /etc/apt/sources.list on pastebin
[02:33] <zoidberg> ?
[02:33] <Hoxzer_> is there anyway to tell xine in ubuntu to use external ffmpeg
[02:33] <jrib> zoidberg: yep
[02:33] <Hoxzer_> ?
[02:34] <zoidberg> one sec...sorry once again for being such a noob
[02:34] <scorpion007> I'm trying to get thunderbird to display messages as unicode. I've changed the settings there but some characters are displayed as question marks. Is there anything I need to install to support all of the unicode symbols?
[02:36] <bjorn-> I'm having that same problem with irssi ... so I changed the terminal from UTF-8 to ISO and it works fine
[02:36] <bjorn-> except it's not unicode ;-)
[02:36] <Enverex> I have to admit I prefer launchpad to bugzilla, bugzilla looks... like ass, heh
[02:37] <khermans> Why isn't ReiserFS the default option for Ubuntu file system?
[02:39] <jatt> khermans: Probably future versions of ReiserFS will never be included in the Linux Kernel, so using it as default filesystem in Ubuntu would be a bad idea.
[02:39] <khermans> jatt, why --what happened?
[02:40] <jatt> khermans: http://wiki.kernelnewbies.org/WhyReiser4IsNotIn
[02:40] <bintut> anyone's familiar with this problem:  "parport0: FIFO is stuck"
[02:42] <zoidberg> okay here it is
[02:42] <zoidberg> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18350
[02:42] <zoidberg> by the way
[02:42] <zoidberg> i uncommented the two lines indicated to allow universal dpenedncies
[02:42] <zoidberg> but that didnt work
[02:42] <zoidberg> so this is what it looked like when i changed it back to what it was
[02:44] <jrib> zoidberg: delete the last line you have there (40) and uncomment all the lines that begin with 'deb'.  You don't need backports, but if you want them you can keep them.  Then save and run 'sudo apt-get update'
[02:44] <cpk2> zoidberg: you are using breezy?
[02:44] <zoidberg> yeah
[02:44] <Rarj> hi there.
[02:45] <cpk2> zoidberg: jrib is right, you dont have any of the repos enabled
[02:45] <kristian> Can someone help me troubleshot my ati graphic card, and the ati driver? My xorg.conf file is correct, but still it's Mesa working.
[02:45] <Rarj> im having a little trouble installing themes on my home computer
[02:45] <Rarj> i have ubuntu dapper installed
[02:45] <jrib> Rarj: what problem are you having?
[02:45] <Rarj> jrib, gives me "invalid file format"
[02:46] <Rarj> although it asks for a tar file
[02:46] <zoidberg> so should i still delete the last line if i'm using Breezy
[02:46] <jrib> Rarj: that's a problem with the file structure inside
[02:46] <zoidberg> ?
[02:46] <jrib> zoidberg: yes, it's repeated above in your file
[02:46] <Hoxzer_> if I build dep from source does ./configure options still apply?
[02:47] <Rarj> jrib, ok. that comes up on all the themes that i try
[02:47] <jrib> Rarj: you can extract it yourself and see what it looks like inside.  Where are you getting the themes?
[02:47] <cpk2> zoidberg: yes, you already have that repo further up
[02:47] <Gorlist> hi
[02:48] <Hoxzer_> hi
[02:48] <Enverex> Someone want to delete this and 'can' the moron? https://launchpad.net/bounties/0

[02:49] <Enverex> Why do people post random crap on the launchpad, makes no sense
[02:49] <zoidberg> ok update is done
[02:49] <zoidberg> now u think i should be able to install xubunut-dektop
[02:49] <zoidberg> ?
[02:49] <SonicChao> zoidberg: Yes.
[02:49] <jrib> Rarj: yeah some of the themes up there aren't structured right, you can still use them, you just have to extract it yourself and then copy the right folder to ~/.themes/ .  I'll help you out with one so you can get the idea if you want, just link me
[02:50] <zoidberg> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop  ...right?
[02:50] <Rarj> umm.. are you saying.. that i need to extract them to the usr/share/themes folder ?
[02:50] <jrib> zoidberg: yes
[02:51] <Rarj> jrib, my home computer doesnt have internet connection. im in office now..
[02:51] <zoidberg> it says couldnt find package
[02:51] <zoidberg> and no typo
[02:51] <Rarj> jrib, are you saying.. that i need to extract them to the usr/share/themes folder ?
[02:51] <jrib> zoidberg: xubuntu-desktop is in breezy universe, can you check that those two lines were uncommented?
[02:52] <Enverex> #launchpad
[02:52] <Enverex> whoops
[02:52] <jrib> Rarj: no, you should use ~/.themes/ == /home/username/.themes for your user
[02:52] <Rarj> jrib, oh ok
[02:53] <zoidberg> ok sorry forgot to uncomment two lines...now they are good...i'm updating again too
[02:53] <Rarj> jrib, can u tell me which window manager is loaded with ubuntu by default ?
[02:53] <radone> I have analyzed my server using 'nmap' - if non-necessary ports are not opened does it mean that my firewall is configured well? Or is it even more complicated
[02:53] <xxyyzz> Is there a tutorial somewhere that has instructions on how to make Ubuntu connect to the internet through a USB modem, as opposed to an ethernet one?
[02:53] <jrib> Rarj: but, you should extract the file to your desktop and see what the structure looks like.  Usually the problem is they are save as something like /usr/share/themes/COOLTHEME/... but you only want COOLTHEME in your ~/.themes/
[02:53] <jrib> Rarj: metacity
[02:53] <Rarj> ok
[02:54] <Rarj> jrib, i extracted them, they have a folder inside with the theme name and a file called (themename).theme
[02:54] <Rarj> is that right ?
[02:54] <stefg> xxyyzz: that would be vendor specific, so imho there's no general tutorial
[02:54] <Bergcube> My wife has completely forgotten her password on her laptop. And I didn't create any user for myself there. (Stoopid, yes I know.) I have halted the boot in grub. How sould I alter the "kernel /vmlinuz bla bla" line to start the machine in single user terminal? (And will that help me? Or will I still need her PWD?)
[02:54] <Sanne> xxyyzz: here are some entries: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=modem&titlesearch=Titles
[02:54] <xxyyzz> stefg: what do you mean by 'vendor specific'? Where would I go to find more information on this?
[02:54] <mwe> does someone know if there is any way to extract a stored password from firefox?
[02:55] <xxyyzz> Thanks Sanne
[02:55] <Sanne> xxyyzz: you're welcome
[02:55] <jrib> Rarj: I believe the .theme should be inside the folder with the theme name, but let me go check
[02:55] <xxyyzz> With my mac, it automatically recognises the internet, be it ethernet or USB. But Ubuntu doesn't seem to pick it up automatically, and I'm not sure why =/
[02:55] <ra7eeel> peace upon you all
[02:55] <netventure> bergcude: edit the grub line (use 'e') and add this to the line:

[02:55] <zoidberg> ok
[02:56] <ra7eeel> can anyone help ?
[02:56] <zoidberg> its installing
[02:56] <netventure> bergcube: if there's a 'ro' in the line, replace it with 'rw
[02:56] <zoidberg> after its done i will restart in xubuntu
[02:56] <xxyyzz> stefg, I didn't buy mine from an ISP =/
[02:56] <ra7eeel> it gives me unable to conect
[02:56] <MrFeetio> is there anyway to lock workstations?
[02:56] <Bergcube> netventure~  ADD it.  Not remove aything of it?
[02:56] <zoidberg> so u think it will let my computer run faster then it running on gnome
[02:56] <MrFeetio> like set a password for one
[02:56] <zoidberg> ?
[02:56] <netventure> boot with 'b' and you will be dropped to a shell
[02:56] <stefg> Bergcube: boot in single mode, and enter a new password by passwd [username] 
[02:57] <netventure> bergcube: yes you need to add that, just make sure that there is no 'ro' in the line
[02:57] <zoidberg> jrib are u there?
[02:57] <Bergcube> netventure~  Thanks a lot!  I will tinker.  I'll let you know how it turns out.
[02:57] <jrib> zoidberg: yes, it should run smoother, just choose xubuntu from options > sessions options at the login screen
[02:57] <netventure> sure
[02:57] <zoidberg> ok
[02:58] <ra7eeel> hellooooooooooo
[02:58] <stefg> xxyyzz: so google for '[my_dsl_modem]  linux usb driver' and see what turns up

[02:58] <shriphani> zoidberg, cygwin would work
[02:58] <ra7eeel> oka thanks
[02:58] <zoidberg> how does that work
[02:58] <zoidberg> ?
[02:59] <MrFeetio> ra7eeel try reasking your question
[02:59] <shriphani> download it and run the setup ?
[02:59] <jrib> Rarj: yes, the .theme should be in the directory.  Try moving it there, and then copying the directory to ~/.themes/ then go to system > preferences > themes and see if it works
[02:59] <zoidberg> no i want to get into my windows machine FROM ubuntu
[02:59] <shriphani> hmm
[02:59] <shriphani> i guess cygwin might work

[03:00] <shriphani> jrib, can we use cygwin to run a ssh server ?
[03:00] <jrib> zoidberg: it probably isn't unless you set it up

[03:00] <zoidberg> ok

[03:08] <Hoxzer_> jrib: thx
[03:09] <Bergcube> netventure~  That was a perfect solution.  I now have her logged into Gnome with a new password.  You're a mate.

[03:10] <alephant> well... let me ask the question in another way:
[03:10] <alephant> does the alternate install disc also include "server install"?
[03:10] <jrib> alephant: you could check the md5sum
[03:11] <alephant> jrib, I already said that the md5sum doesn't match the list on the website.
[03:12] <jrib> alephant: oh didn't see that, but that does mean there is a problem with the download
[03:13] <trev__> whats better, xine or gstreamer
[03:13] <jrib> trev__: xine imo
[03:13] <trev__> and how do you make kaffeine play .wmv
[03:14] <trev__> so then kaffeine is better than totem them also because it is desinged around xine
[03:14] <xxyyzz> Is there an application you can open to change your selected modem driver(s)?
[03:14] <gregg__> xine or gstreamer? clearly mplayer is better! :-)

[03:18] <Warbo> nixr: Yay

[03:20] <JoaoJoao> I'm having some issues trying to start postgresql in breezy. It doesn't even remove the packages, looks like Ubuntu's pgsql packages are badly broken
[03:20] <bahadirt> hello guys
[03:20] <Marduke> hello
[03:20] <Warbo> nixr: Hang on, I'll need to reenable Software Properties in Alacarte :)
[03:20] <CzarAlex``> Warbo: Gah. Thank you :)

[03:22] <dillinger> can someone please help me i dont have any sound in a flash animation under firefox
[03:22] <Warbo> nixr: On the "Authentication" tab you need to give it the key file. You can probably get it from the repository's website
[03:23] <WooD> Hi ! what does replace microsoft Frontpage 2003 in Ubuntu that can make the same work ?
[03:23] <Paladine> so have ubuntu released a new version of -26 kernel or something?
[03:23] <existance> what proggie can i use to burn a CD image?
[03:23] <Warbo> WooD: Probably Nvu is best
[03:23] <zoidberg> hey guys thanx a lot
[03:23] <NthDegree> WooD nvu is a good replacement
[03:23] <NthDegree> existance try k3b
[03:23] <zoidberg> xubuntu is working great
[03:23] <Warbo> existance: Nautilus (the file manager), GnomeBaker, K3B, XCDRoast
[03:24] <zoidberg> now does anyone know of a DVD player
[03:24] <zoidberg> ?
[03:24] <existance> Gracias
[03:24] <WooD> NthDegree: Warbo: thanks to both of you ! :)
[03:24] <funkja> Is there a good program for GNOME that is similar to Mac OSX's widgets?
[03:24] <RAOF> zoidberg, totem-xine?
[03:24] <Enverex> WooD, NVu and Quanta Plus
[03:24] <nixr> whoops I accidentally disco'd
[03:24] <Warbo> zoidberg: ogle-gui is specifically designed for DVDs
[03:24] <WooD> Enverex: thanks
[03:24] <Paladine> funkja, gdesklets
[03:24] <Enverex> WooD, and maybe even SCREEM
[03:24] <NthDegree> WooD or how about WINE + Frontpage 2003 :p
[03:24] <bahadirt> guys
[03:24] <Warbo> !wine
[03:24] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:24] <JoaoJoao> oh well I'll just compile pgsql from source
[03:25] <bahadirt> I downloaded alternate cd
[03:25] <bahadirt> and installed
[03:25] <bahadirt> now works perfect
[03:25] <Paladine> W00D I find echo is good for writing webpages
[03:25] <bahadirt> BUT
[03:25] <bahadirt> I got one on board lan adapter
[03:25] <Warbo> Paladine: lol
[03:25] <bahadirt> which system could not recognize
[03:25] <bahadirt> I plugged in another pci card
[03:25] <Paladine> 'echo "<html>\n<body>" > index.html
[03:25] <bahadirt> it seems okay
[03:25] <bahadirt> but when I plug the cable
[03:25] <bahadirt> nothing happens
[03:25] <bahadirt> no packets moving
[03:25] <bahadirt> what shld I do ?
[03:26] <bahadirt> to activate connection
[03:26] <Warbo> bahadirt: You tried using the System>Administration>Networking tool?
[03:26] <Enverex> Oh, he asked for something to replace Frontpage! I know something that does the syntax just as well! "cat /dev/random > /index.html" !
[03:26] <bahadirt> yes I tried but I am not directly connected
[03:26] <Paladine> Enverex, hehehe
[03:26] <bahadirt> we have isa server here
[03:26] <bahadirt> and firewall etc.
[03:26] <Warbo> Enverex: Do you have AbiWord installed?
[03:26] <WooD> Paladine: thanks
[03:26] <bahadirt> I need to habe automatic ip
[03:26] <bahadirt> how can I do that
[03:26] <bahadirt> ?
[03:26] <WooD> I will try nvu first
[03:26] <Enverex> Warbo, Nope, why'd you ask?
[03:27] <Paladine> bahadirt, enable DHCP
[03:27] <bahadirt> paladine : okay I will.
[03:27] <Warbo> Enverex: I was going to suggest you save a document as HTML in it. AbiWord's idea of HTML formatting is seriously flawed :)
[03:28] <Enverex> Warbo, Ah, heh, I use bluefish personally
[03:28] <Paladine> Enverex, I <heart> bluefish
[03:28] <trev__> so if I use mplayer instead of totem with gstreamer my videos will look better?
[03:28] <Paladine> I currently have 8 scripts open in bluefish hehehe
[03:29] <Enverex> It's "I <3 Bluefish"
[03:29] <nixr> Warbo: Thank you. I found the key at the site and was able to import it. I no longer get the warning.
[03:29] <Enverex> Want to see my latest "work of art"?
[03:29] <Paladine> each to their own, I love it somuch it deserved the extra characters and effort required :p
[03:29] <Warbo> trev__: That is a heavily debated issue
[03:29] <trev__> i jsut tried it and mplayer looked alot better
[03:29] <Gullstad> how use *.bin *.cue files in linux?
[03:30] <trev__> looking at a low res avi or red vs. blue
[03:30] <Warbo> nixr: Cool, I may do the same since I use that repo. I usually just put up with the warnings though :)
[03:30] <Warbo> !iso
[03:30] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[03:30] <trev__> but can mplayer play streams
[03:30] <Warbo> Gullstad: See the bin/cue bit of Ubotu's message
[03:30] <Enverex> Gullstad, Use cue2iso or bin2iso or that
[03:30] <nixr> Warbo: I'm a neat freak. I can't deal with it. lol
[03:31] <Enverex> I just submitted ccd2iso for review into repo, heh
[03:31] <Paladine> I still wanna know why autoupdate is telling me I need to install -26 kernel image andheaders
[03:32] <existance> Warbo, how do i burn an image with nautilus?
[03:32] <minerale> Hi, i have a debian computer and allow friends of mine to use it via an ssh tunnel to access websites blocked in china. I just found out that even tho the tcp session is fowarded via the ssh tunnel, the dns server querried is the one local in china, and the dns server there refuses to resolve blocked ip's. Would VPN fix this? how can I setup vpn on debian so that it can be used from a windows pc? Anyone know of any program to setup vpn e
[03:32] <Warbo> existance: right click the image>copy image to CD (or something like that)
[03:32] <Paladine> existance, there is anextension for nautilus to do cdburning
[03:32] <Paladine> Warbo, I think he needs to get the extension first
[03:32] <Warbo> Oh, I though it came with Ubuntu
[03:33] <existance> Paladine, i cna burn to cds
[03:33] <Paladine> wasn't installed on mine by default
[03:33] <existance> Paladine, i just couldnt figure out how to do an image
[03:33] <lz1gjd> how do i find why my sound is not working ?
[03:33] <Paladine> existance, like I said, you need the nautilus extension
[03:33] <Paladine> it is in synaptic
[03:33] <Paladine> it allows you to burn iso's (and otherimages)
[03:33] <bahadirt> paladine : is postfix available with ubuntu
[03:33] <trev__> from windows there is the idiot proof hamachi but that is freeware
[03:33] <bahadirt> or need to download that
[03:33] <bahadirt> ?
[03:33] <Paladine> bahadirt, yes of course
[03:34] <whitehorseNtiger> @minerale:  maybe post that in the ubuntu forums somewhere, maybe in "networking" section.  Might take some time to get an answer.
[03:34] <bahadirt> yes what :)
[03:34] <bahadirt> there or not
[03:34] <bahadirt> ?
[03:34] <Paladine> yes it is available
[03:34] <bahadirt> how to activate?
[03:34] <bahadirt> I need a mail server
[03:34] <Warbo> existance: There are two ways of writing CDs in Nautilus. One is by dragging files to the "burn:///" folder, but that will not write an image. The second is the right-click way
[03:34] <Paladine> I don't think it is installed by default though, you would need to installit using apt-get or synaptic
[03:34] <bahadirt> 2 clients will use
[03:34] <Warbo> !enter > bahadirt
[03:34] <CzarAlex``> I have an executable shell script called moobackup.sh . How can I get ./moobackup.sh to run weekly? (do i need to place the file somewhere? /etc/cron.weekly) or is it more than that?
[03:34] <whitehorseNtiger> Is setting up a mail server easy?
[03:35] <whitehorseNtiger> How would I access my mail?  joe?
[03:35] <Paladine> whitehorseNtiger, too easy, hense theproliferation of spam
[03:35] <whitehorseNtiger> hehe
[03:35] <whitehorseNtiger> ok
[03:36] <Paladine> I access my mail with evolution
[03:36] <bahadirt> how I can run postfix ?
[03:36] <whitehorseNtiger> ah ok.  I use that too.
[03:36] <Paladine> bahadirt, you need to install it via synaptic
[03:36] <Paladine> that will install any dependencies
[03:37] <whitehorseNtiger> I like evolution well enough.  It has 'contacts' and calender junk I never use.
[03:37] <b0rnDeep> has anyone here had any problems running vmware player after updating the latest kernel?
[03:37] <Paladine> then you just need to confgure it
[03:37] <Paladine> b0rnDeep, you have to reinstall it
[03:37] <trev__> if i install mplayer as default can i uninstall xine and gstreamer and kaffeine and totem
[03:37] <Paladine> b0rnDeep, it is built around your previous kernel-headers
[03:37] <Warbo> trev__: Yes, but it may also uninstall any ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop mete-packages (which is fine)
[03:38] <trev__> whats a mete-package
[03:38] <Warbo> trev__: Sorry, meta-package. It is an empty package which depends on other packages. It is OK to get rid of since it is empty, but you may want to reinstall it before upgrading to the next version of Ubuntu
[03:38] <lz1gjd> how do i find why my sound is not working ?
[03:39] <whitehorseNtiger> Is there a way to ignore all these announcements of people coming and going?
[03:39] <bla|patrick> re
[03:39] <Warbo> !sound
[03:39] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[03:39] <trev__> if i leave them there and set mplayer as the default that dose that  leave any running processes around
[03:39] <trev__> *does that
[03:39] <Warbo> trev__: No, but they will still take up space
[03:40] <pbrunier> f
[03:40] <bla|patrick> !sound in flash in opera
[03:40] <ubotu> I know nothing about sound in flash in opera - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:40] <trev__> i have 200 gigs so ill leave them, thx
[03:40] <bla|patrick> *sigh*
[03:40] <Paladine> I wish gdeskcal would have a different colour for days with events
[03:41] <trev__> wate when i synaptic to remove totem it says it must remove ubuntu-destop as a dependency
[03:42] <Subhuman> trev__, itz a meta-package, itz safe to remove
[03:42] <lz1gjd> Warbo: thx, seems like my usb cam's mic  for some reason sometimes is used as default audio device
[03:42] <Subhuman> itz just a "container" if you will.
[03:42] <trev__> ok
[03:42] <bla|patrick> crap its about 40C here... not even in the swimming baths u can bear it...
[03:42] <bla|patrick> the sun is burning ur flesh :|
[03:42] <MenZa> bla|patrick: UK?
[03:42] <bla|patrick> germany
[03:42] <bla|patrick> why?
[03:43] <MenZa> Curious.
[03:43] <MenZa> I have another friend saying it's 39C in the UK ;)
[03:43] <MenZa> I'm in Denmark
[03:43] <MenZa> Hella hot here too.
[03:43] <Enverex> Subhuman, So there aren't any side effects from removing "ubuntu-desktop"?
[03:43] <MenZa> 35 or smth
[03:43] <trev__> its going to be around 100F in New York today
[03:43] <madpickle> about 90 deg F here in sunny south wales =)
[03:43] <MenZa> trev__: 40C is still more.
[03:43] <bla|patrick> that high pressure area namend "bruno" xD
[03:43] <Subhuman> Enverex, nope, not one.
[03:43] <Paladine> MenZa, approching 36C here in the north west of UK
[03:43] <trev__> i know
[03:43] <MenZa> Oh wait, how'd we get so offtopic?
[03:43] <MenZa> #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:43] <Subhuman> MenZa, im uk
[03:43] <Enverex> MenZa, Yeah, it's 35'c outside now and about 39'c in my room
[03:43] <bla|patrick> in may we had to heat with gas
[03:43] <MenZa> :)
[03:43] <Subhuman> itz 34C atm
[03:43] <ardchoille> Enverex: Not uless you plan to upgrade to the next Ubuntu version. I removed that meta package a while ago and everything is fine
[03:43] <bla|patrick> and now we cant get the house cool engough xD
[03:43] <MenZa> bla|patrick: haha :)
[03:44] <Enverex> ardchoille, why would I not be able to upgrade?
[03:44] <ardchoille> Enverex: You just need to re-install ubuntu-desktop , then upgrade
[03:44] <ardchoille> you can remove it again after that
[03:44] <cpk2> could someone tell me why when i try to do sudo echo 'pwcheck_method: saslauthd' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf i get permission denied?
[03:45] <Enverex> ardchoille, Ah, what happens if it isn't installed when I upgrade or will it just not let me?
[03:45] <dmsantam> cpk2, because sudo doesn't apply to the after redirect >>
[03:45] <ardchoille> Enverex: Not sure, never tried
[03:45] <dmsantam> the sudo is working on the echo, but not after the >>
[03:45] <dmsantam> you need to use something like tee
[03:45] <xopher> What was the simplest way of making a folder to a repository again? One cmd IIRC
[03:45] <ardchoille> xopher: I have a link, hold on
[03:46] <ardchoille> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PersonalRepositories
[03:46] <ardchoille> xopher: ^^
[03:46] <xopher> thamls
[03:46] <xopher> I meant, thanks ;)
[03:46] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[03:46] <cpk2> dmsantam: i see, would it work if i did sudo after the >> as well then?
[03:46] <dmsantam> cpk2, no :(

[03:49] <livingdaylight> Shinzetsu: the 'search' function is synaptic is fantastic
[03:49] <bur[n] er> disregard my vmware problem... dpkg-reconfigure does good work
[03:49] <ardchoille> livingdaylight: indeed, couldn't live without it
[03:49] <Shinzetsu> What is Synaptic?

[04:01] <_nano_> garkoil, http://www.tuxlab.org.za/   <-- may be this will help
[04:02] <ardchoille> garkoil: Install on one, make a partimage image, use partimage to unpack the image onto the other machines
[04:02] <Boglizk> How much space does Ubuntu use when installed?
[04:02] <rpedro> garkoil: one word: apt-move

[04:11] <fraroco> mwe: E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:11] <mwe> fraroco: close synaptic
[04:11] <rpedro> garkoil: you maybe able to create a daily snapshop iso with jigdo from the debs you already have
[04:11] <fraroco> mwe: ok It is working
[04:12] <radone> is it possible to check physical size of ram available?
[04:12] <rhican> radone, cat /proc/meminfo
[04:13] <rpedro> garkoil: that is, it would be useful if you havent' yet installed and you don't mind installing with the alternate disc installer
[04:13] <rhican> or with ksysguard or something
[04:13] <radone> rhican: thanks
[04:14] <ardchoille> radone: use the free command
[04:14] <garkoil> rpedro, can you explain a bit more ?
[04:14] <rpedro> garkoil: or you can use apt-move to create a custom repository on a cd/dvd , but I've never tried this myself
[04:14] <mwe> but it will be physical size - kernel memory I think. there is also the free command
[04:14] <rpedro> garkoil: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JigdoDownloadHowto  << instruction are on this page
[04:14] <alephant> I'm having a terrible time getting 6.06 installed with RAID-1 on two SATA drives...
[04:15] <bla|patrick> http://www.thatvideogamesite.com/play.php?id=426 do you have sound in that flash?
[04:15] <alephant> ...the install has ended, I've ejected the CD
[04:15] <rpedro> garkoil: you need the .jigdo , and .template files from the cdimage.ubuntu.com site for the latest daily snapshot
[04:15] <alephant> and all I see on the screen is
[04:15] <alephant> md: md0 switched to read-only mode.
[04:15] <alephant> It's been about 10 minutes.
[04:15] <alephant> I have no VCs available, it looks like the system has halted
[04:16] <cpk2> trying to set up postfix, the wiki says to test i should do telnet localhost 25 and should see 250-starttls and 250 auth, all i see is 220 mydomain esmtp postfix any suggestions?
[04:16] <alephant> is it safe to powercycle?
[04:16] <cpk2> oops nevermind
[04:16] <cpk2> missed something
[04:17] <wycats> Hey guys: I'm having a problem...I pasted the details at http://pastie.caboo.se/5191
[04:17] <alephant> is this "flash" question about missing sound?
[04:17] <alephant> I always lose sound if I start mplayer/xmms or anything else that uses /dev/dsp; the fix is to restart firefox
[04:18] <bla|patrick> could someone help me with sound and flash?
[04:18] <stefg> !flash
[04:18] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:18] <bla|patrick> i al ready installed a sound demon and started opera with esddsp opera
[04:19] <bla|patrick> but still no sound
[04:19] <mwe> alephant: bla|patrick search the forums. the are some threads about it
[04:19] <rpedro> garkoil: after you run the script , you need to supply to it the location of where you mounted the cdrom image (if you already have the alternate install disc), or/and you can point it to '/var/cache/apt/archives/' << this is where synaptic/apt-get cache the downloaded packages
[04:19] <bla|patrick> i am doing
[04:19] <bla|patrick> but non of those solutions works
[04:19] <bla|patrick> :|
[04:19] <Tommy2k4> X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168,  Major opcode:  145,  Minor opcode:  3,  Resource id:  0x0, Failed to open device
[04:19] <Tommy2k4> anyone got any idea why i get that error several times whenever i run anything from konsole
[04:19] <bla|patrick> aoss opera didnt
[04:20] <garkoil> rpedtro, I already have the alternate cdrom,  but is it up2date ?
[04:21] <mwe> Tommy2k4: can you type dmesg and paste the additional info? use paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:21] <bjorn-> anyone installed ATI drivers for a radeon card?.. I'm having some problems
[04:21] <bjorn-> with their installer
[04:21] <garkoil> repdro, I have the updated packages burned to a cd.
[04:21] <rpedro> garkoil: doesn't matter, some of the needed packages are updated infrequently, and besides it will only fetch the package versions that match the .jigdo file
[04:21] <whadar> what is the default pdf viewer in ubuntu?
[04:21] <gr33npho3nix> whadar: evince
[04:21] <rhican> bjorn, proprietory or opensource?
[04:21] <squilla> ubotu ppc
[04:21] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers, and now a fully supported Ubuntu architecture.
[04:21] <mwe> bjorn-: why don't you use the ubuntu module?
[04:21] <dmsantam> whadar, document viewer
[04:21] <Cirvin_Fox> I have installed a soundblaster live card into my computer, and disabled the onboard sound device, but now it seems i cannot unmute the device. It worked before i disabled the other sound device, is there a way to upmute it?
[04:22] <garkoil> I didn't understand everything
[04:22] <dmsantam> gr33npho3nix, evince?
[04:22] <gr33npho3nix> is the default pdf viewer
[04:22] <rpedro> garkoil: what didn't you understand ?
[04:22] <garkoil> rpedro, can you please list the things I need to do ?
[04:22] <dmsantam> gr33npho3nix, i never knew it was called that
[04:22] <dmsantam> :)
[04:22] <wycats> I get stuff like "sleep: command not found"
[04:22] <mwe> bjorn-: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx and update xorg.conf
[04:22] <rpedro> garkoil: ok
[04:22] <alephant> I can't boot my new 6.06 Alternate instllation
[04:22] <alephant> GRUB can't mount the root partition:
[04:23] <gr33npho3nix> dmsantam: yeah it is, adobe is there somewhere but it isn't the default and might have to be manually installed
[04:23] <alephant> http://pastebin.ca/92355
[04:23] <rpedro> garkoil: 1) run 'sudo apt-get install jigit jigdo jigdo-file'
[04:23] <alephant> md0 is a raid1 device
[04:23] <alephant> formatted ext3
[04:23] <whadar> i cant install evince... it depends on gs-esp and gs-esp give me:
[04:23] <whadar> Package gs-esp has no available version, but exists in the database.
[04:23] <alephant> can anybody help?
[04:24] <XenonG> Errr, what Firewall I can use for Ubuntu? Whats good? Any recommendations?
[04:24] <Cirvin_Fox> I have installed a soundblaster live card into my computer, and disabled the onboard sound device, but now it seems i cannot unmute the device. It worked before i disabled the other sound device, is there a way to unmute it?
[04:24] <XenonG> !firewall
[04:24] <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)
[04:24] <XenonG> aha
[04:24] <cpk2> !postfix
[04:24] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix or here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[04:24] <mwe> alephant: it looks like it's trying to mount the swap partition. that wont work
[04:24] <garkoil> rpedro, I need to this straight after installing ?
[04:24] <studprog> Hi ... anybody here know how to make a GRUB entry so that the computer boots over PXE
[04:24] <XenonG> Any good firewall besides the one in Ubuntu?
[04:24] <alephant> 0x82 == swap...
[04:24] <alephant> :-/
[04:24] <gr33npho3nix> studprog: isn't pxe handled by the bios
[04:25] <mwe> XenonG: iptables is your only option. it has various front ends though
[04:25] <Cirvin_Fox> ok, i got it to unmute, alls wel
[04:25] <ardchoille> XenonG: I like Firestarter
[04:25] <whadar> studprog: pxegrub?
[04:25] <XenonG> How to use it?
[04:25] <alephant> mwe, is this something I can potentially do from the GRUB commandline, or am I reinstalling [again] ?
[04:25] <mwe> XenonG: iptables is one of the best firewalls on the planet though
[04:25] <mwe> alephant: dont reinstall
[04:25] <gr33npho3nix> i prefer webmin-iptables
[04:25] <gr33npho3nix> or is it webmin-firewall
[04:26] <ardchoille> !webmin
[04:26] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[04:26] <rpedro> garkoil: 2) go to cdimage,ubuntu.com and fetch the .jigdo file and the .template file from the latest snapshot , for the architecture you have (amd64, i386 or what you want) , and place these two files in a separate directory from other files , say 'dapper-snapshot-iso'
[04:26] <mwe> alephant: figure the correct partition number and tell grub to use it
[04:26] <alephant> XenonG, I like shorewall a lot
[04:26] <gr33npho3nix> really i didn't know that, anyone know why they stopped supporting it
[04:26] <studprog> gr33npho3nix: yes .. and it's possible to make the computer boot "everytime" via PXE - but i would like it to boot once using PXE and then just boot locally afterwards (the PXE boot installs a brand new Ubuntu system on the target machine)
[04:26] <XenonG> hhmmm
[04:26] <XenonG> I'm not good with command line firewalls
[04:26] <Cardoe> can someone with gcc installed give me "gcc -dumpmachine"
[04:27] <XenonG> nogo
[04:27] <Cardoe> on an amd64 box
[04:27] <Brinu> hi
[04:27] <dmsantam> XenonG, its in System->Administration->Firestarter once you've installed it
[04:27] <Brinu> how muc hspace does Ubuntu take?
[04:27] <skavenge> XenonG: firestarter is a nice gui frontend
[04:27] <ardchoille> XenonG: Firestarter is a gui front-end to iptables, it's got a nice and easy-to-understand gui
[04:27] <mwe> XenonG: firestarter is a great gui front end to iptables
[04:27] <Brinu> How much space does Ubuntu take?
[04:27] <bla|patrick> crap :|
[04:27] <ardchoille> Firestarter impressed me
[04:27] <XenonG> So I have to install it manually? k.
[04:27] <bla|patrick> still no sound
[04:27] <gr33npho3nix> studprog: well i guess you could boot some small os which does all the pxe stuff,  if your at many systems you hit a key to select what to boot from one time
[04:28] <rpedro> garkoil: 3) mount the alternate install disc you have like this , under the same directory : 1. mkdir dapper-iso-old , 2. mount -o loop </path/to/your/dapper/iso> dapper-iso-old
[04:28] <XenonG> Is it on the list in Synaptic Package Manager?
[04:28] <ardchoille> XenonG: Firestarter is in universe
[04:28] <gatekeeper> Brinu, about 4Gb
[04:28] <wycats> Where do shell scripts get their path?
[04:28] <rpedro> garkoil: make that "2. sudo mount -o loop </path/to/your/dapper/iso> dapper-iso-old
[04:28] <alephant> wycats, the script uses the $PATH of the user that started it
[04:29] <mwe> !info firestarter
[04:29] <ubotu> firestarter: gtk program for managing and observing your firewall. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-1.1ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 381 kB, installed size 1900 kB
[04:29] <alephant> wycats, or an explicitly-set local $PATH from the shell invocation
[04:29] <XenonG> wow, small size
[04:29] <gr33npho3nix> i have found firestarter to be very finicky
[04:29] <bla|patrick> regarding flash: non of that solutions in ubuntu's wiki is working
[04:29] <rhican> wycats, using $PWD or $0 i would guess
[04:29] <alephant> wycats, or a script can modify its own $PATH
[04:29] <whadar> i uninstalled cups (cause i have no printer) but now the pdf viewer is not working... and i cant install evince... any sugguestions?
[04:29] <mwe> XenonG: firestarter is available from synaptic if you have enabled the universe repository
[04:29] <bla|patrick> the same goes for videostreaming
[04:29] <bla|patrick> i am gonna be frustrated :|
[04:29] <XenonG> which is where?
[04:30] <whitehorseNtiger> a goalkeeper is the boyfriend of the girl you want to date in Korea :)
[04:30] <snoops> bla|patrick video streaming?
[04:30] <bla|patrick> no quicktime
[04:30] <alephant> wycats, ``man bash'' should have something useful to say on the subject, esp. the diff. btw. a login/non-login shell.
[04:30] <bla|patrick> no real
[04:30] <mwe> !universe > XenonG
[04:30] <bla|patrick> no sound in flash
[04:30] <XenonG> What the hell is Universe repository?
[04:30] <bla|patrick> quicktime... neither totem-mozilla.so nor mplayer-mozilla.so
[04:30] <mwe> XenonG: read the /msg from ubotu
[04:30] <mwe> XenonG: he told you
[04:30] <XenonG> ok, thanks
[04:30] <Foobal> bla|patrick: mkdir /tmp/.esd and then touch /tmp/.esd/socket ,restart the browser -> sound
[04:30] <rpedro> garkoil: 4) in the same directory as you .jigdo and .template files, run this : 'jigdo-lite <yourfile.jigdo>'
[04:30] <gatekeeper> !repositories
[04:30] <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
[04:31] <XenonG> !easysource
[04:31] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:31] <rpedro> garkoil: you there ?
[04:31] <bla|patrick> Foobal: first schekc if u can hear sound there:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyurb6rXz1Q
[04:31] <garkoil> rpedro, yes
[04:31] <garkoil>  I am copying the stuff
[04:31] <rpedro> garkoil: what step are you at _
[04:31] <rpedro> garkoil: *?
[04:31] <garkoil> rpedro, I am not doing it now
[04:32] <ardchoille> is ubuntuforums.org down?
[04:32] <bla|patrick> *check
[04:32] <garkoil> rpedro, I am trying to prepare my self to next week
[04:32] <ardchoille> oh, nvr mind
[04:32] <xopher> I got some bmpx amd64 packages, would anyone like to try them out? see if they work and so on
[04:32] <rpedro> garkoil: hmm
[04:32] <XenonG> Hmmm, server seems busy now, download speed down from max 80KB/s to 4Kb/s, what wrong? Peak hour?
[04:32] <garkoil> the thing is I don't want to go over updating again and again
[04:33] <alephant> ignore ubotu*
[04:33] <alephant> oops
[04:33] <rpedro> garkoil: ok,
[04:33] <bla|patrick> Foobal: does ur olution work?
[04:33] <bjorn-> XenonG: ubuntuforums.org slow as hell from here as well
[04:33] <XenonG> They must be updating something......
[04:33] <garkoil> rpedro, is that all ? after that I have an updated install cd ?
[04:34] <ardchoille> bjorn-: YEah, slow today
[04:34] <XenonG> Or cracker up to no good.
[04:34] <garkoil> rpedro, the cd won't be livecd, right ?
[04:34] <sri_> can any one tell how to trace the folders which are sean by others...not go to /var/....
[04:34] <sri_> history??
[04:35] <frogzoo> sri_: /proc
[04:35] <rpedro> garkoil: after running the 'jigdo-lite' script , all you have to do is supply the locations where are the packages you already downloaded, one at a time. So in this case you would point it to the path to where you mounted your alternate cd iso, and to /var/cache/apt/archives
[04:35] <sri_> frogzoo, 1min
[04:35] <Gryhed^^> #ubuntu
[04:35] <Gryhed^^> ^
[04:36] <garkoil> so, I can't use this script on the LiveCD installer ?
[04:36] <rpedro> garkoil: no, it would be a alternate install cd , this means textbased install , and just remembered , if you want to bring over extra packages to the pc that don't have a internet connection, you will have to use apt-move, jigdo only creates an iso with the packages from a default dapper install
[04:37] <garkoil> rpedro, 10x
[04:37] <rpedro> garkoil: np
[04:37] <garkoil> rpedro, u just help creating 20 more happy students using ubuntu ! cheers
[04:37] <sri_> frogzoo, thank u can u tell how to join in python irc......i typed /join #python then it is saying that u have to register I have already registered But i dont understand why it is saying like that
[04:38] <rpedro> garkoil: great ;)
[04:38] <frogzoo> !register
[04:38] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[04:38] <MarcN> sri_: have you registered your nick with nickserv?
[04:39] <sri_> MarcN, ya
[04:39] <bla|patrick> Foobal: could u give me the 2nd command a 2nd time
[04:39] <MarcN> sri_: and authenticated with it since you connected to irc?
[04:39] <bla|patrick> copy and past didnt worked and by that time i already closed opera
[04:39] <bla|patrick> touch /tmp/.est/
[04:40] <alephant> the grub stanza ``root (hd0,0)'' points grub at the *boot sector* of the 0,0th hdd,partition, correct?
[04:40] <sri_> MarcN, i just go to xchat & joining in ubuntuservers .......
[04:40] <wycats> Is there any reason this syntax is no good in a shell script: if [ 0 -eq $PID ] ; then -- I get too many arguments
[04:40] <Warbo> alephant: hd0,0 is the first partition of the fisrt drive. The MBR would probably be just hd0
[04:40] <MarcN> sri_: sure. but when you are connected, you have to do something like   /msg nickserv identify YOURPASSWORD
[04:40] <sri_> MarcN, it is not asking for password...?
[04:41] <alephant> wycats, that syntax is correct
[04:41] <Tommy2k4> mwe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18351
[04:41] <MarcN> sri_: once connected, you need to tell nickserv that you are the owner of the nick 'sri_', you do that by msg nickserv
[04:42] <sri_> MarcN, this is the process......??/msg nikserv sri_ password??
[04:42] <alephant> wycats, to debug syntax errors in the if construct, use the test alone, like:
[04:42] <alephant> [ 0 -eq 1 ]  || echo "FOO"
[04:42] <frogzoo>  if [ 0 -eq 0 ] ; then echo yes ; fi
[04:42] <alephant> [ 0 -eq  1 ]  && echo "FOO
[04:42] <Warbo>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY password
[04:43] <alephant> frogzoo, line breaks can unnecessarily muddy the issue, though
[04:43] <Shinzetsu> I did sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop, I have the Kubuntu bootscreen, login screen and all the KDE apps but it's still GNOME
[04:43] <Warbo> sri_: It already knows that you are sri_, the only variable is the password
[04:43] <sri_> MarcN, if i am typing this it is saying that unknown cmd..
[04:43] <MarcN> sri_: type this:     /msg nickserv help     and it will msg you with all kinds of info.  You need to register your nick and then everytime you connect to irc, identify yourself
[04:43] <frogzoo> wycats: too many args is probly cos $PID isn't set
[04:44] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: Choose your session at the login screen
[04:44] <Shinzetsu> I did that
[04:44] <bla|patrick> Foobal: i cant find any reference for taht commands in the forums
[04:44] <Shinzetsu> It's set to KDE
[04:44] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: You chose KDE, right?
[04:44] <Shinzetsu> Yep
[04:44] <Tommy2k4> maybe "sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm" would help
[04:44] <MarcN> sri_:  no spaces before /msg ...
[04:44] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: What happens if you run "startkde"?
[04:44] <Tommy2k4> i did that before but havent logged out to test it yet
[04:44] <sri_> MarcN, ya thank u
[04:44] <Shinzetsu> In a terminal?
[04:44] <daxxar> Is it possible to use the 'biometric sensor' (fingerprint scanner) built into my HP laptop to authenticate in Ubuntu?
[04:45] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: Yeah, I'm just wondering if you somehow overwrote KDE binaries with GNOM ones.....
[04:45] <Warbo> daxxar: Aa! I hate them :)
[04:46] <Shinzetsu> Thanks, startkde did the job
[04:46] <bur[n] er> http://burner.ath.cx/screenshot-vmware-player.jpg   :)
[04:46] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: That should be run when you choose KDE in the session thingie. I wonder why it didn't work automatically?
[04:46] <alephant> ok, mwe, I'm now seeing that the kernel can't open md0
[04:46] <Shinzetsu> Maybe its because im running Ubuntu in a VM
[04:46] <alephant> erk
[04:46] <alephant> lemme try an initrd
[04:46] <Gullstad> root@gullet:/media# mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/gullstad/Desktop/TBOC1.iso /media/temp
[04:46] <Gullstad> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop2,
[04:46] <Gullstad>        missing codepage or other error
[04:46] <Gullstad>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[04:46] <Gullstad>        dmesg | tail  or so
[04:46] <Gullstad>  Got this problem when I try to mount.
[04:47] <Shinzetsu> Hm
[04:47] <alephant> mwe, but I'm irked that the installer wrote an incorrect grub/menu.lst
[04:47] <Shinzetsu> I get a mixture of GNOME and KDE and when I close my terminal it goes back to GNOME
[04:47] <bur[n] er> Shinzetsu: when you login... via gdm, use pick the kde session!
[04:47] <frogzoo> Gullstad: u sure that's TBOC1 is an iso?
[04:47] <Shinzetsu> All kinds of errors too
[04:48] <Shinzetsu> X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166
[04:48] <Warbo> Shinzetsu: Try getting rid of GNOME, or at least GDM
[04:48] <calloc> Have to say Im liking this new Dapper...
[04:48] <Shinzetsu> Alright
[04:48] <Gullstad> frogzoo: You mean that TBIC1.iso aint an *.iso? It is :P
[04:48] <Tommy2k4> Shinzetsu, i get that error all the time, cept device 168
[04:49] <Warbo> Gullstad: You realise what you said there doesn't really make any sense. *.iso is not a file type, it is a file name
[04:49] <Tommy2k4> i get it many times whenever i run something from konsole
[04:49] <calloc> just out of curiosity has anyone installed a Wiki from the Repos using PHP 5??
[04:49] <frogzoo> Gullstad: mount it on /mnt/tmp
[04:49] <mwe> alephant: I don't know why it did that
[04:49] <bur[n] er> Warbo: he shouldn't have to get rid of gdm... i use gdm and pick kde, gnome, xfce, or fluxbox
[04:49] <calloc> Curreent version i tried installing requests PHP4,
[04:49] <frogzoo> Gullstad: hotplug doesn't appreciate trespassers in /media
[04:49] <Warbo> bur[n] er: GDM works for me too, but if there is a problem then it is probably GDM's fault
[04:50] <Gullstad> frogzoo: File does not exsist
[04:50] <frogzoo> Gullstad: sudo mkdir -p /mnt/tmp :p
[04:50] <bur[n] er> ok, possibly
[04:50] <alephant> mwe It got root() wrong and forgot the initrd stanza
[04:50] <bur[n] er> Shinzetsu: you should totally just install ubuntu full on and use windows via vmware :)
[04:50] <phaedrus44> ello...i have major probs..i keep installing on my hda  which is 5 gigs....but every time install is finished, on reboot  i get "Grub Loading Stage 1.5" and a minute later i get "Read Error"    cannot boot
[04:51] <phaedrus44> any hints or advice?
[04:51] <bur[n] er> phaedrus44: bad disk?
[04:51] <Shinzetsu> Thing is it locks up at installation
[04:51] <creede> Hello all, I have a fonts question. How do I turn those little diamonds with question marks inside them into useful characters?
[04:51] <Gullstad> frogzoo: same error :s
[04:51] <Warbo> phaedrus44: Do you get the menu? If so you can mess around with the boot entries with "e"
[04:51] <phaedrus44> i get no menu at all..
[04:52] <phaedrus44> just Grub Loading Stage 1.5"
[04:52] <phaedrus44> and then Read Error
[04:52] <Tommy2k4> how can i disable bluetooth? seems pointless having it running when i will never use it
[04:52] <Warbo> phaedrus44: I assume you don't have hidden menu? (in which case pressing Esc will show it)
[04:53] <phaedrus44> i dont think so Warbo..
[04:53] <Pecisk> !Nvidia
[04:53] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:53] <phaedrus44> hhmm
[04:54] <compengi> when i lock the screen can i remove the screen that moves, so that i will see the ubuntu's welcome screen?
[04:54] <wrath> Hello all, could some one point me in the right direction of how to get my speakers working?
[04:54] <Warbo> phaedrus44: Well, you can reinstall GRUB with "sudo grub-install /dev/hda" in a liveCD. Otherwise there is not much you can do without the menu
[04:54] <phaedrus44> cool..ill try that
[04:54] <phaedrus44> thanks
[04:54] <hayden> how can i changet he resolution etc of the gdm login
[04:54] <stefg> phaedrus44: I'd really check the harddisk for defects first... Or do have an odd disk configuration? What hardware is it?
[04:54] <Warbo> compengi: You can go "New Login" which will lock your screen and open a new login screen for someone else
[04:55] <IanThePetRock> stupid question: where can i access the trash? i have no icons for it.
[04:55] <bur[n] er> IanThePetRock: "places"
[04:55] <Warbo> IanThePetRock: ~/.Trash and .Trash-username on any removable device
[04:55] <IanThePetRock> ah
[04:55] <IanThePetRock> thanks
[04:55] <cmoney> hey all, does anyone know if there is a bug for ubunto along these same lines? .... http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg210643.html
[04:55] <creede> IanThePetRock, do you not have a trash icon at the bottom right hand corner of your screen (in the bar that shows your apps)?
[04:56] <compengi> Warbo, my ame of this is to keep the things working while i locked the screen, like in windows when you logout the things in the windows keep working
[04:56] <stefg> !launchpad
[04:56] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[04:56] <IanThePetRock> creede i do not
[04:56] <stefg> cmoney: check for yourself
[04:56] <TLE> whats the easiest way to convert a avi file to a vcd ?
[04:56] <compengi> Warbo, but when i logout in ubuntu all the things stop
[04:56] <frogzoo> Gullstad: strace mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/gullstad/Desktop/TBOC1.iso /mnt/tmp
[04:56] <wrath> Any know how I can get my speakers to work?
[04:56] <Warbo> compengi: Look in Applications>System Tools and see if "New Login" is there. If not go into Applications>Accessories>Alacarte Menu Editor and enable it. Sounds just what you are after
[04:57] <cmoney> ok ... I do know the problem exists in ubuntu as well
[04:57] <cmoney> I'll file the same thing
[04:57] <creede> IanThePetRock, Can you add one by right clicking that panel and then choosing "Add to panel" and going to "Wastebasket" under "Desktop and Windows"?
[04:57] <Shinzetsu> KDE works now, thanks
[04:57] <IanThePetRock> creede i just did :)
[04:57] <Shinzetsu> Is it possible to read NTFS in Linux?
[04:57] <Warbo> !ntfs

[04:57] <IanThePetRock> I must have deleted it sometime
[04:58] <creede> I dragged mine out onto the desktop so I could actually see the darn thing
[04:58] <aquafina> :s
[04:58] <aquafina> Hello.
[04:58] <Shinzetsu> Ah no
[04:58] <creede> Dragged your wastebasket into the trash? :)
[04:58] <Shinzetsu> Im running in a VM so I guess I cant access my ' real'  filse
[04:58] <aquafina> I just installed Ubuntu 6.06. And installed Xchat.. I cant figure out the new xchat...
[04:58] <IanThePetRock> :(
[04:58] <gatekeeper> Shinzetsu, there are also howto's in ubuntu forums
[04:58] <aquafina> where is the nick list? o.O
[04:59] <Shinzetsu> Alrigh
[04:59] <Warbo> compengi: If you make a new session then you can get back to your old one with ctrl-alt-f7 (it will be locked) and the new one will usually be on ctrl-alt-f8, and any others on ctrl-alt-f10, ctrl-alt-f11, etc.
[04:59] <scott_> how can i access the nvidia configuration pannel? as the package ddint install a kde menu shortcut?
[04:59] <Tommy2k4> how can i make kdm defalt
[04:59] <Warbo> Tommy2k4: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm I think
[04:59] <aquafina> man update-alternatives
[04:59] <creede> IanThePetRock, I've seen worse, I did Win95 tech support for a while and one time I had a guy who dragged his entire file structure into the recycle bin
[04:59] <Tommy2k4> i did that before and no luck
[05:00] <IanThePetRock> creede: ouch
[05:00] <creede> yeah, you ain't kiddin, ouch :)
[05:00] <Warbo> creede: You have to ask, what were they trying to do?
[05:00] <wrath> This is what Im getting "No volume control GStreamer and/or devices found"
[05:00] <Tommy2k4> kdm is already defalt according to dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[05:00] <creede> Warbo, You know, I can't remember anymore what their original question was :)
[05:01] <aquafina> Does anyone know howto change the default xchat config? it looks differetnt from the previous versions
[05:01] <user-land> Hello, i changed my graphics card from a cheap ATI to a better Nvidia, do i need to reinstall Ubuntu ?
[05:01] <creede> They managed to do this while I was on the phone with them
[05:01] <aquafina> Tommy2k4: apt-get remove xdm/gdm
[05:01] <IanThePetRock> Theres alot of stuff like that on http://www.rinkworks.com/stupid/
[05:01] <Warbo> user-land: No way. Just reconfigure X
[05:01] <Warbo> user-land: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (It may be done automatically anyway, but with the Free driver)
[05:01] <user-land> warbo, great. i was using the ATI driver from easyubuntu, how can i reconfigure X _
[05:01] <Tommy2k4> k trying that now aquafina
[05:02] <user-land> ah.

[05:02] <eva_> Can someone please help me?
[05:02] <scott_> only just switched today from ati to nvidia
[05:03] <Jeruvy> aquafina: what can't you understand about xchat :)
[05:03] <Tommy2k4> time to test
[05:03] <Sonderblade> i dont get any sound when watching shockwave files in firefox, anyone know how to fix it?
[05:03] <aquafina> Jeruvy: well. it used to have a nick list on teh right.. and the channel list at the bottom. not ther is something on tne left, and it says 806 users, but i cnt see a single bloody username!!
[05:03] <aquafina> Jeruvy: and i dont like the channel/nick list on the left. i like them on the bottom like earlier...
[05:04] <creede> OK, let me try my question again: What do I need to do to make extended characters that are now showing up as a diamond with a question mark inside, show up properly?
[05:04] <user-land> thanks, warbo, going to reboot and try.
[05:04] <scott_> dr_willis_: i only got nvidia today so dont know how to from command line
[05:04] <Warbo> creede: Probably your font doesn't support that character
[05:04] <aquafina> creede: install more fonts, install Unicode fonts
[05:04] <Warbo> user-land: Why reboot?
[05:04] <aquafina> Jeruvy: can you help with that?
[05:04] <user-land> i am on the live cd now, warbo.
[05:04] <Warbo> user-land: Ah, OK :)
[05:05] <creede> Well I thought these fonts did support Unicode . . . grrrrr
[05:05] <dr_willis_> scott_,  use the package manager to see what files it installed, or check the nvidia wiki/forums/docs - ive never ran that control panel.. or upen a shell and try nv<tab> and see what shows up.
[05:05] <aquafina> Jeruvy: sorry, this is xchat-gnome.. what is teh package name for the normal xchat?
[05:05] <Jeruvy> aquafina: ok, I can understand you may not like it.  I don't use xchat myself.
[05:05] <scott_> dr_willis_: thanks
[05:05] <aquafina> Jeruvy: ok
[05:05] <creede> I'm prolly wrong, I was just hoping it was a configuration issue because I like this font I have now

[05:06] <Jeruvy> aquafina: you could use the irc in the help doc to ask some questions.

[05:06] <phaedrus44> cool cool thanks
[05:07] <bla|patrick> ah crap...
[05:07] <bla|patrick> no solution for flash works :(
[05:07] <bla|patrick> i reall yneed help
[05:07] <bla|patrick> i beg u :|
[05:07] <creede> bla|patrick, what are you trying to do??
[05:07] <Warbo> http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash
[05:07] <Tommy2k4> ok so apt-get remove gdm turns out to be a bad idea
[05:07] <stefg> indeed
[05:08] <creede> I suspect so if you want to log into the GUI :)
[05:08] <Tommy2k4> noflex, i want kdm back to default
[05:08] <Tommy2k4> stupid xchat autocomplete
[05:08] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: i think flash 8(?) isn't yet supported
[05:08] <bla|patrick> creede: i try to get sound from flash

[05:08] <bla|patrick> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyurb6rXz1Q
[05:09] <creede> oy, I've had the opposite problem before. I got sound but no picture
[05:09] <bla|patrick> frogzoo: i have tried two dozend different attempts
[05:09] <bla|patrick> sounddaemons
[05:09] <Warbo> bla|patrick: compile MAD support into Gnash and sound works (only events, not streaming). It's actually quite competant even though it is really young
[05:09] <creede> It was driving my granddaughter crazy, she could go to her kid websites and hear them but not see them
[05:09] <daxxar> I have a machine without a CD-rom; what options do I have when it comes to installing Ubuntu Dapper on it?
[05:09] <mikkelm> Hey... How do I allow apache to show a folder in my home ... /home/mikkelm/Websites that is???
[05:09] <bla|patrick> Warbo: i am am noob... please in english :D
[05:09] <daxxar> It has support for booting from USB and LAN
[05:09] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: flash uses oss - you have to close all your other sound sources, & restart ff for it to work
[05:09] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Look at the link I posted above
[05:10] <bla|patrick> frogzoo: thats why i tried it with sounddeamons
[05:10] <Tommy2k4> how can i make it load kdm on bootup instead of taking me to a terminal
[05:10] <Warbo> daxxar: Probably easiest to install on a different machine then just copy all of the files across
[05:10] <Tommy2k4> when i enter startx it loads xfce
[05:10] <daxxar> What files? Across what?
[05:10] <pulsar|xubuntu> hey guy's i have a problem with burning of i have a nec burner supports formats cd dvd dl dvd-ram but i can't burn anythink it says initialising burning but it do nothing more over hours ... can somebody help me?
[05:11] <Warbo> daxxar: The files Ubuntu makes, you can copy them to a USB drive and then transfer them to the HD
[05:11] <Jeruvy> daxxar: Do you have PXE on your network?
[05:11] <daxxar> Jeruvy, yep
[05:11] <Jeruvy> daxxar: review the instructions for booting from CD over PXE :)
[05:12] <daxxar> Oh, that's possible? :D
[05:12] <bla|patrick> Warbo: is there a binary for it.... i wont bother u to explain me how to compile
[05:12] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Probably not. It doesn't have sound support unless you specifically enable it before compiling (MP3 is not Free)
[05:12] <Jeruvy> daxxar: you may have to create a image source, but ya.
[05:13] <bla|patrick> and since it uses opengl... i use xgl... may be a problem i guess
[05:13] <Warbo> bla|patrick: It has no where near as much support for Flash files as the official Flash player, but it does use ALSA
[05:13] <XenonG> !firestarter
[05:13] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Apparently it can use Cairo as well
[05:13] <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)
[05:13] <rhican> bla|patrick, you can't use dri under xgl, (xgl uses it so your apps can't anymore)
[05:13] <bla|patrick> Warbo: the problem is... minimum on youtube e.g. is flash7
[05:14] <bla|patrick> rhican: ???
[05:14] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Well it can't play FLV files (the video codec is patented)
[05:14] <aquafina> Jeruvy: finally installed the correct xchat.. it was in universe or multiverse :D Feels much better
[05:14] <johan_> is there a boot option for the livecd that stops it from using the swap space? since that is activated by default, I cant format the partition I wanted to because the swap is in use.
[05:14] <bla|patrick> Warbo: i want sound in falsh streams... e.g. youtube
[05:14] <bla|patrick> thats all i need...
[05:14] <BHSPitMonkey> is there a tool to check for hard drive errors?
[05:14] <Jeruvy> aquafina: distro's make installations fun! :)
[05:14] <Warbo> bla|patrick: There are greasemonkey scripts available which let you save YouTube videos, which you can then play in MPlayer
[05:14] <radone> I am afraid that my system has not been hacked. Could anyone point me to some tutorial what should I do to repair system ?
[05:15] <radone> ....has been hacked ...
[05:15] <aquafina> Jeruvy: well. i thought xchat would be installed by default since the first page after starting Firefox talks about #ubuntu
[05:15] <frogzoo> johan_: change the file system type from 82 to something else using fdisk ?
[05:15] <rhican> johan_, the livecd shouldn't use the HD at all are you sure you are looking at the right /dev/[] 
[05:15] <bla|patrick> Warbo: thats a waste of time... i simpy want use youtube as i did in windows
[05:15] <bla|patrick> go to that site
[05:15] <bla|patrick> wathc the moive and get away
[05:15] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Then send your complaints to Adobe
[05:16] <bla|patrick> i dont try out a solution that needs: go to taht site extract the movies from antoher site... open those files manual in totem wathc the moives, delte the files...
[05:16] <linuxfan> I need to upgrade my kernel from 386 to k-7. I have an amd64. When I install linux-image-k7 it messes up my xorg.conf. what am I doing wrong?
[05:16] <johan_> rhican yes I am, Im using gparted. The swap space has got a lock icon next to it. I will try to run the install thogh, format it and then just turn off
[05:16] <frogzoo> !info smartutils
[05:16] <ubotu> Package smartutils does not exist in dapper
[05:16] <bla|patrick> Warbo: well that gnash would make it even worse... because videos work
[05:16] <bla|patrick> its simply sound that fails
[05:16] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Totem doesn't play the sound properly for me. Anyway, Greasemonkey means you don't need to go to a different site to download them

[05:16] <XenonG> Ok, I ask again, where can I get FireStarter?
[05:16] <johan_> nevermind rhican and frogzoo, I could format it during the install
[05:16] <bla|patrick> Warbo: i use opera
[05:17] <XenonG> heh, sorry
[05:17] <Warbo> XenonG: universe
[05:17] <XenonG> OK, what is Universe?

[05:18] <bla|patrick> but thankyou for helping me :)
[05:18] <johan_> formatting done, bye
[05:18] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Really? It is exactly the kind of stupid solution I would expect from non-Free software like Flash and Opera
[05:18] <bla|patrick> Warbo: sound doesnt work in firefox either ant firefox is free

[05:19] <Rarj> hi. how do i download the KDE interface without downloading Kubuntu ?
[05:19] <bla|patrick> Warbo: well i dont understand what u want say to me...
[05:19] <bla|patrick> in the last sentence
[05:19] <Warbo> Rarj: install the kdebase and kdelibs packages and stuff like that.
[05:19] <frogzoo> dswillia74437: in preferences -> keyboard shortcuts -> screensaver
[05:20] <Warbo> !keyboard

[05:20] <phaedrus44> ello again!
[05:20] <Rarj> Warbo, thanks. how would i switch between environments ?
[05:20] <bla|patrick> Warbo: do u mean... because its non free its not worth using? or what does it mean... that u offer me a solution thats even worse than the non free software offers...
[05:20] <bla|patrick> :|
[05:20] <adamz_> I've got a bit of a glitch here - installer is crashing on me. Not particularly good - looked in the log file it pointed to, no real evidence there of anything interesting, crashing near the end of the install (~98% or so) - first time it happened, I got an error about grub. Anyone got any ideas?
[05:21] <Warbo> Rarj: Selecting your session at login is the usual way. You may be able to run two sessions with "New Login" (in System Tools) and have one GNOME and one KDE
[05:21] <bla|patrick> crap....
[05:21] <bla|patrick> :|
[05:21] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: kind of OT dude
[05:21] <bla|patrick> my english isnt that good... sorry
[05:21] <daxxar> Jeruvy, hm, can't find anything good on that.
[05:21] <Rarj> Warbo. thanks.
[05:21] <bla|patrick> but that sentence makes no sence for me
[05:21] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: OT = off topic
[05:21] <bla|patrick> ah ok
[05:21] <Warbo> bla|patrick: Just saying that with non-Free software you can rarely do what you want, since the makers don't let programmers in your situation fix their software for them

[05:22] <Bone> but the disc won't boot during starup
[05:22] <daxxar> Ah, nevermind
[05:22] <daxxar> http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install
[05:22] <daxxar> :D
[05:22] <compengi> and where do i set it?
[05:22] <Bone> can i runuBuntu while windows is up
[05:22] <Warbo> bla|patrick: That's because the codec is patented. It is illegal to make FLOSS which can play it
[05:23] <frogzoo> Bone: vmware
[05:23] <Warbo> Bone: In VMWare
[05:23] <sharms> bla|patrick: youtube videos work fine here.
[05:23] <Bone> vmware?
[05:23] <Bone> what
[05:23] <Warbo> vmware.com
[05:23] <bla|patrick> sharms: here too.. but i dont have sound xD
[05:23] <frogzoo> Bone: -> google 'vmware'
[05:23] <Bone> i burned the uBuntu server 6.06 and im trign to install
[05:23] <bla|patrick> on google video i ahve sound... thats weired
[05:23] <compengi> frogzoo, how to set it?
[05:23] <frogzoo> !keyboard
[05:23] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[05:24] <Warbo> Bone: You cannot run two fully installed systems at the same time, but you can install one OS inside another using VMWare
[05:24] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help me fix the 3 errors at the bottom of http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18352 when trying to install kdm
[05:24] <frogzoo> Bone: or do you want a dual boot setup ?
[05:24] <Powerbook`> Can I install ubuntu on a 2 gb old computer?
[05:24] <jersymike2> use knoppix or knotix
[05:24] <frogzoo> Powerbook`: 2gig's gonna be pretty squeaky ...
[05:24] <Warbo> Powerbook`: Use the server install method then install what you need (the default installs loads of bloat for such a small system)
[05:24] <stefg> Powerbook`: if there's 196MB minimum... better take xubuntu for old boxes
[05:25] <Gorlist> ive downloaded a game thats in a .package file
[05:25] <sharms> bla|patrick, keep checking this thread also http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=218816&highlight=youtube
[05:25] <Powerbook`> or would a 100 gb computer be better? :P
[05:25] <aquafina> is there a post install guide for Ubuntu 6.06 users?
[05:25] <bla|patrick> shachaf: well in that wiki are only solutions for firefox...
[05:25] <Gorlist> if I try and run it gedit comes up with an error
[05:25] <Warbo> Powerbook`: Bigger is always better
[05:25] <bla|patrick> that aoss didnt work in opera either
[05:25] <Powerbook`> lol
[05:25] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help me fix the 3 errors at the bottom of http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18352 when trying to install kdm, someone says i have a broken debconf
[05:25] <stefg> Powerbook`: hd-space is an issue, but RAm as well
[05:25] <Gorlist> could not dedect character coding
[05:25] <bla|patrick> i started opera with aoss opera as command
[05:25] <Bone> wel why won't it boot during startup, i have it in a cd-rw/dvd rom drive
[05:25] <compengi> Warbo, how to set the shortcut keys for screen lock
[05:25] <bla|patrick> no sound...
[05:26] <sharms> !tell compengi about keyboard
[05:26] <Warbo> compengi: I don't know
[05:26] <frogzoo> Powerbook`: if you give / 500meg, /var 5gig, /usr 15gig - /home whatever, you've a pretty decent setup
[05:26] <Bone> can someoen help me please
[05:26] <stefg> !anyone
[05:26] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:26] <Powerbook`> ok
[05:26] <Bone> i did ask
[05:26] <Bone> te Ubuntu cd won't boot during start up
[05:26] <sharms> Bone: turn on boot from cd rom in your bios
[05:26] <Bone> i put it ina  cd-rw drive, and it doens't work, hte comp jsut boots windows xp instead
[05:27] <bla|patrick> sharms: now that u mention that link... ur right
[05:27] <bla|patrick> i noticed that something was different, but couldnt say what
[05:27] <bla|patrick> :|
[05:27] <sharms> yeah if that one guy posts back his solution it will be nice
[05:27] <stefg> Bone: Have you set the BIOS to boot from CD?
[05:27] <Bone> i have hard disc as first boot priorty, cd-rom as second boot priorty and removable storage as third priorty in bios
[05:28] <Jeruvy> bone:  make sure you CDROM is selected in BIOS as your first boot device.
[05:28] <Bone> oh, as first?
[05:28] <Bone> i don't have a cd rom drive
[05:28] <Warbo> Bone: Always have Floppy first, then CDROM then HD
[05:28] <frogzoo> Bone: cd as first
[05:28] <Bone> only two cd-rw drives, will that work?
[05:28] <Warbo> Bone: CDRW=CDROM then
[05:28] <stefg> yes :-) how should the computer know afterwards?
[05:28] <Jeruvy> Bone: don't be silly :)
[05:28] <frogzoo> Warbo: what's a floppy drive ? (:p)
[05:28] <Bone> alright, so cdrom first, then harddrive, then flopppy
[05:29] <sharms> Bone: a cd-rw is a cdrom drive.
[05:29] <Warbo> frogzoo: Those things in the front of my computer which make lots of noise then spit out error messages :(
[05:29] <bla|patrick> sharms: what i dont understand... why is everbody recommanding always that videodownload solution :|
[05:29] <bla|patrick> in opera forums too...
[05:29] <Bone> ok, brb
[05:29] <sharms> bla|patrick: because we cant view the files, but we can download them and rip the video out of flash to play on mplayer
[05:29] <Dagataka> how do I change the fonts for gtk2 apps like xmms and audacity?
[05:30] <bla|patrick> ok....
[05:30] <Warbo> Dagataka: Erm.... They are GTK1
[05:30] <Dagataka> ok so gtk1 then
[05:30] <bla|patrick> sharms: i guess... if i want video in broser there is no other alternative to the non free player
[05:30] <Powerbook`> What environment is the standard ubuntu?
[05:30] <user-land> Warbo, reconfiguring x worked well, but after the first minute watching a video the signal from the card went dead ...
[05:30] <bla|patrick> all of those reverse engeneering players cant do that, right?
[05:31] <Warbo> Dagataka: Not sure. I know you can change the playlist fonts and stuff in XMMS through the preferences, but I don't know about changing GTK1
[05:31] <Powerbook`> What environment is the standard ubuntu?
[05:31] <frogzoo> Powerbook`: gnome
[05:31] <Warbo> user-land: Are you on the free drivers or the non-free ones?
[05:31] <frogzoo> Powerbook`: kubuntu for kde
[05:31] <Powerbook`> is gnome the best for a begginer? :P
[05:31] <frogzoo> Powerbook`: I think so, yes
[05:31] <Warbo> Powerbook`: That's debatable. I would say yes
[05:31] <Powerbook`> good because i already downloaded ubuntu and almost done burning :P
[05:31] <frogzoo> lol
[05:32] <user-land> well, i did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as you recommended, choosing nv. i guess that is the free driver ?
[05:32] <Subhuman> Powerbook`, actually, if your coming from a windows background i think KDE is more windows like, but i'd still go with GNOME because it is a better desktop than KDE
[05:32] <Subhuman> user-land, yes it is
[05:32] <Powerbook`> so i downloaded the right one?
[05:32] <Dagataka> ok thanks anyway
[05:32] <Powerbook`> :|
[05:32] <Subhuman> user-land, choose nvidia, if it isnt in the list "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[05:32] <bla|patrick> btw. fasterdapper.sh http://www.dylanknightrogers.com/2006/07/17/faster-dappersh/
[05:32] <Subhuman> Powerbook`, yes you did :D
[05:32] <Powerbook`> :D
[05:32] <bla|patrick> has someone tried this already?
[05:33] <user-land> thank you, subhuman.
[05:33] <Warbo> user-land: I usually find that I have more problems with the non-free driver (called "nvidia") then the free one. Either way, try the ohter
[05:33] <Warbo> !nvidia > user-land
[05:33] <Subhuman> user-land, only the nvidia drive has 3d accel.
[05:35] <user-land> thank you, Warbo.
[05:35] <IceTox> How do I check which distro is installed on a box?

[05:37] <squilla_> anyone solve gnome-panel/bonobo/nautilus errors when starting gnome?
[05:38] <squilla_> anyone using ubunu-ppc?
[05:38] <morphix> grr..
[05:38] <squilla_> ....erm ubuntu-ppc
[05:38] <johan_> For my ntfs drive, the options are "defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0", what should they be for a vfat drive?
[05:39] <bla|patrick> how do i run sh-skripts?
[05:40] <nlindblad> sh script
[05:40] <morphix> this is really begining to annoy me.. i am trying to get my Buffalo CLI-CB-G54S to work in ubuntu 6.06 with NO luck at all.. it uses a bcm43xx chipset.. the included drivers with ubuntu show the card, i can configure.. but it wont connect to ANYTHING its pretty much useless, and using ndiswrapper with win drivers didnt work either :(
[05:40] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: chmod +x blah.sh ; ./blah.sh
[05:40] <nlindblad> or ./script (if mod is set to +x
[05:40] <saiko> johan_: for me it is like this - iocharset=utf8,umask=000
[05:41] <johan_> saiko: I'll try that then. thanks
[05:41] <bla|patrick> sudo chmod -x /home/patrick/Desktop/faster-dapper.sh <-- didnt happened anything
[05:41] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: i have some linksys drivers that might work for you w\ ndiswrapper
[05:41] <johan_> bla|patrick: where did you get it?
[05:41] <gr33npho3nix> and did you get the firmware for card w\ the bcm43xx driver
[05:41] <morphix> eh?
[05:41] <saiko> johan_: at least for me it works as a storage drive
[05:41] <morphix> firmware for the card?
[05:41] <bla|patrick> http://www.dylanknightrogers.com/2006/07/17/faster-dappersh/
[05:42] <gr33npho3nix> yeah the bcm4xx driver needs firmware cut from the windows drivers of the card
[05:42] <sztanpet> how can i ripp my audio cd to ogg vorbis with cddb database support? :D
[05:42] <morphix> for ndiswrapper?
[05:42] <johan_> saiko: yeah, that did it. It doesn't appear on desktop though, will it do after reboot or do I need to add something?
[05:42] <Bone> umm i have a prob with uBuntu
[05:43] <hans67521> why should someone move from linux 2.4 to 2.6 networking performance wise
[05:43] <Bone> i booted from the cd and installed, everything went great
[05:43] <Bone> but when i took the cd out and rebooted
[05:43] <bugalo> hi
[05:43] <Bone> windows xp bnooted pu
[05:43] <Bone> i thought windows xp was supposed to be gone
[05:43] <frogzoo> sztanpet: sound juicer
[05:43] <hans67521> why should someone move from linux 2.4 to 2.6 networking performance wise
[05:43] <bugalo> it is a little more difficult
[05:43] <saiko> johan_: try to reboot, i don't remember at the moment if i did something specific to it
[05:43] <bugalo> bone
[05:43] <Bone> and i don't think i downloaded the livecd, cause i downloaded from uBuntu site
[05:43] <bugalo> you must change boot manager options
[05:44] <frogzoo> hans67521: 2.4 is pretty old
[05:44] <Bone> i did
[05:44] <Bone> i boot from cd first, then HD, then removable
[05:44] <Bone> but i installed LINUX
[05:44] <bugalo> no no
[05:44] <Bone> so windows xp should be gone
[05:44] <bugalo> boot sector
[05:44] <bugalo> manager
[05:44] <bugalo> in ubuntu
[05:44] <bugalo> it is difficult
[05:44] <bugalo> I don't know how to do it
[05:44] <Bone> ? i thoguth uBunto was for humans
[05:44] <bugalo> but xp isn't
[05:45] <Bone> ok, so i can do it in xp?
[05:45] <bla|patrick> frogzoo: that command didnt worked
[05:45] <bugalo> no
[05:45] <bugalo> as root in ubuntu
[05:45] <bugalo> you must run several commands and edit several configs
[05:45] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: which command?
[05:45] <Bone> GAH
[05:45] <Bone> damit
[05:45] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: no for bcm43xx
[05:45] <bugalo> to edit the boot sector
[05:45] <Bone> so now i can't get uBuntu
[05:46] <bugalo> man I am lame and can't tell you which commands
[05:46] <Bone> :(
[05:46] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: i am at work right now but if you want to pm me i can find a guide for you later
[05:46] <bugalo> :(
[05:46] <morphix> gr33npho3nix: i mean do i need the firmware for ndiswrapper?
[05:46] <Bone> now i have to stay with windows ;'(
[05:46] <gr33npho3nix> or you can good one yourself
[05:46] <frogzoo> bla|patrick: you need to make the script executable with 'chmod +x' & then './script' - assuming the script is called 'script'
[05:46] <Bone> does anyone in here know how to do it?
[05:46] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: ndiswrapper needs windows drivers
[05:46] <Bone> anyone in here know how to do this boot sector thing
[05:46] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: bcm4xx needs firmware cut from windows drivers
[05:46] <morphix> gr33npho3nix: i found a guide.. and am downloading the firmware now.. but under the capture.. is says they were unsuccessful
[05:46] <bugalo> it is about 15-30 mins of work
[05:47] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: someone packaged it somewhere , but its not in any of the repos
[05:47] <bugalo> depended if you will have problems or not
[05:47] <mike1> lo all
[05:47] <gr33npho3nix> morphix: packet capture? i wouldn't be surprised the bcm43xx driver isn't really poslished yet
[05:47] <bla|patrick> frogzoo: it still opens gedit but running the script in terminal
[05:47] <Ballsy> Trying to run the Live CD on an AMD Athlon 64 w/512MB or RAM...I get as far as 'configuring some drivers.....ok' and it dumps me to a blank screen with a blinking cursor.  Tried the amd64.iso and i386.iso images (checksums on the .iso files passed).  I try that same CD in an old Compaq deskpro 650Mhz w/128MB at work, and it runs (albeit slowly).  Ideas ?
[05:47] <Framed> I'm a total newb with linux in general and I am in need of some help - anyone have time?
[05:48] <Bone> bugalo what are you talking about? i was on uBuntu, like on the desktop and everything, i was adding stuff to the panel

[05:52] <bugalo> lamer helps lamer isn't it cute
[05:52] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, but not a server install 
[05:52] <ngaylinn> I'm looking to duplicate one install of Ubuntu on a completely different (hardware wise) computer. Essentially, I want all the same packages and configurations. Is there a nice tool to do this, or must I do it by hand? Is there any way to backup/restore the list of installed packages? I'd hate to install each package again by hand.
[05:52] <Bone> yes i know, but i accidently downloaded the livecd isntead of the server cd
[05:52] <Bone> crap
[05:52] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: i dunno, never tried it, poke around, you may be able to pass it a boot option
[05:52] <Bone> meh, at least this one is only 400MB's
[05:53] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, it can't 
[05:53] <Bone> does uBuntu have g++
[05:53] <jrib> ngaylinn: man dpkg, scroll down to examples (see dpkg --get-selctions example)
[05:53] <frogzoo> mike1: does 'whoami' return 'mike1' ?
[05:53] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: are you telling me or asking
[05:53] <Seveas> !tell Bone about compiling
[05:53] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, I'm telling
[05:53] <ngaylinn> jrib: Cool. I'll explore that. Thanks!
[05:53] <mike1> frogzoo: 'whoami = mike1'
[05:53] <Bone> !tell Bone compiling
[05:53] <Seveas> the only way alivecd can do a server install is a manual debootstrap, which is cheating
[05:53] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell Bone compiling - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:54] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: oh sorry

[06:06] <Ballsy> The i386.iso Live CD works on an old Compaq Deskpro 650Mhz/128MB RAM desktop at work, but dumps me to a blank screen with blinking cursor (after sitting at 'configuring some drivers....ok') when I try it on my AMD Athlon 64 at home.
[06:07] <Ballsy> Advice ?
[06:07] <Ballsy> (sorry if someone's already answered....I have scrollback buffer access now  <g>)
[06:07] <soldier> hi
[06:07] <soldier> need help
[06:07] <mike1> frogzoo:  I made the change and I'm rebooting.... I have no clue why 112 was there (maybe when I assigned the profile admin rights)
[06:07] <stefg> Ballsy: the CD needs at least 256 MB RAM... HW-req's not met... X won't start
[06:08] <Dial_tone> For evolution & ISP pop3 mail do you want spamassassin or spamc?
[06:08] <Ballsy> stefg, the thing is, it DID work on the OLD pc, but won't work on the NEW PC (Athlong 64 w/512MB ram)
[06:08] <zaba> hello You shows problem with (from) at switching on mums me error siema apache2 and error is in (to) rewrite because shows catalog is pass away in which (who) file catalog not .htaccess as I enter on server
[06:08] <soldier> i want to know if i can install and play call of duty in ubuntu dapper?
[06:08] <stefg> Ballsy: ah ok, now i understand
[06:08] <deltron> soldier: yeah, with cedega
[06:08] <soldier> do i jhave to buy that?
[06:08] <Gullstad> !tell soldier about wine
[06:09] <soldier> have&
[06:09] <Ballsy> stefg, at least one of us does.  I'm baffled.  :)   Even tried the amd64.iso on the home box, to no avail.
[06:09] <Gullstad> !wine
[06:09] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:09] <saiko> as far as i know the root account is disabled by default in ubuntu, but there should be a way to switch in it from console? i try to type su and then the password i think is correct, but no luck - invalid password, what do i do wrong ?
[06:09] <deltron> cedega cvs should work
[06:09] <stefg> Ballsy: ATI vga?... :-)
[06:09] <deltron> I got wow working in cedega cvs
[06:09] <Ng> saiko: sudo -i
[06:09] <Ng> !root > saiko
[06:10] <tomasz> hi - just wondering - why I cannot find the Opera 9 in my Add/Remove ... tool while it is being announced on the Ubuntu main web page as installable "With just a few clicks of the mouse" ... ?
[06:10] <mwe> saiko: the root account is not disabled. nothing will work if it is. the password is not set by default though
[06:10] <saiko> thx Ng
[06:10] <Ng> tomasz: is the commercial applications bit ticked? and do you have all the latest updates?
[06:10] <soldier> is wine cedega cvs free?
[06:10] <mike1> frogzoo:  still didn't work, when I try to log into gnome I get the session to start the erroe say it can't create the .gnome and .gome2 dirctories
[06:10] <saiko> thx mwe

[06:11] <Framed> Anyone had any luck getting dual monitors set up on an nvidia pci-e card?
[06:12] <Guest669> Hello
[06:12] <ajayc> hi
[06:12] <Ballsy> stefg, not on the new computer...SiS 760 display adapter
[06:12] <soldier> is wine cedega cvs free?
[06:12] <ajayc> soldier, no
[06:12] <soldier> how much is it?
[06:13] <tomasz> Ng: I see. Thanks.
[06:13] <mwe> the cvs version is free of charge I believe
[06:13] <soldier> so will i be able to p[lay cod in it?'
[06:13] <jackfrost> does anyone know how I can find the MAC address of my wireless card with network-manager-gnome or through the terminal?
[06:13] <frogzoo> mike1: ?
[06:13] <mwe> soldier: don't count on it
[06:13] <soldier> okay
[06:13] <lz1gjd> though its not complete, there are some libraries missing as far as i know
[06:13] <mwe> soldier: they have a list of supported games
[06:13] <soldier> send me a link please
[06:13] <soldier> ?
[06:14] <frogzoo> jackfrost: ifconfig eth1 up (or whatever); ifconfig |grep eth1
[06:14] <jackfrost> w00t thanks frogzoo!
[06:14] <mikechml> er
[06:14] <stefg> Ballsy: so the Live-CD hardware detection doesn't recognize it, it seems. you could try to switch to the console [alt-ctrl-f1]  and do a manual 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' there to get X running. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart afterwards to restart X with the new conf
[06:14] <mikechml> it might not be eth1
[06:14] <mikechml> mine's ra0
[06:15] <KenSentMe> soldier: check http://transgaming.com
[06:15] <PreZLaptop> btw - on windows, what is the 'alternative' to select (ie. to bypass the 1024 limit)?
[06:15] <mwe> soldier: http://www.google.com/search?&q=cedega
[06:15] <Ballsy> stefg, at what point would I issue the ctrl-alt-f1 ?
[06:16] <jackfrost> cool, need that to connect to my wifi network here
[06:16] <PreZLaptop> oops, wrong channel
[06:16] <stefg> when you looking at the blinking cursor instaed of a desktop
[06:16] <lz1gjd> soldier: u could use some torrent site like demonoid, but i don't think thats legal
[06:17] <mikechml> there's scripts available that'll get the latest cvs version and set it up
[06:17] <Ballsy> stefg, cuz I tried that last night but got no results.  Will have to retry tonight I guess.  Will sift through wiki etc. as well, as I'm SURE I saw someone else report this problem....just can't FIND the damned post... <g>
[06:17] <pder> i recently purchased a microcomputer system.  i was curious if linux supported keyboards because i wanted to input some text into my computer system.
[06:17] <stefg> Ballsy: i guess there must be even a special boot parameter to use only vesa-VGA
[06:17] <gr33npho3nix> pder: if linux supports keyboards?
[06:18] <^glue^> Hey guys, there are 3 files available to download (iso, list, and manifest). Do I download the 3 and burn them or do I just need the iso file?
[06:18] <gr33npho3nix> pder: i owuld say yes unless i missed a detail in that question
[06:18] <jackfrost> um...yes pder.
[06:18] <Ballsy> stefg, if there is, how would I interrupt the Live CD startup process to pass an arg to the kernel?
[06:18] <Gorlist> can anyone recommend a easy program to unpack .rar files?
[06:18] <kalosaurusrex> !ssh
[06:18] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[06:18] <mwe> godtvisken: unrar
[06:19] <stefg> Ballsy: correct
[06:19] <mwe> Gorlist: unrar
[06:19] <jackfrost> I'm playing mp3's right now, I'd say linux supports keyboards
[06:19] <Gorlist> right
[06:19] <Gorlist> thanks
[06:19] <pder> what i would like to do is input text into my computer system using a keyboard and have the text displayed on a monitor.  i would then like to save this data to a fixed disk, and be able to send this data to a line printer.  is this possible using linux?
[06:19] <stefg> Ballsy: right at the beginning, in the boot menu press ESC
[06:19] <phunkalicious> mwe: mail-notification
[06:19] <phunkalicious> :D
[06:20] <Ballsy> stefg, ahhh....thanks.  I'll see if I can find a proper parm.  I see alot of   acpi=off  recommendations, but I"m not sure that'd cure what ails me....
[06:20] <mwe> phunkalicious: what about it? some setting or what?
[06:20] <phunkalicious> no, thats the evolution tray icon, in case you wanted to know
[06:21] <mwe> phunkalicious: a seperate package?
[06:22] <frogzoo> pder: linux will support pretty much any pc's keyboard perfectly
[06:22] <phunkalicious> yep
[06:22] <mwe> phunkalicious: I think it's not evolution specific but a generic mail notifier though
[06:24] <kennyt> how do you manually boot the ppc install cd from open firmware?
[06:24] <harisund> How do I find out all the environment variables? I type "sudo visudo" to modify the sudoers file, and for some reason it opens it in nano. I want it to open it in vi?
[06:24] <arachnion> hi everyone, just booted ubuntu, x kind of failed
[06:24] <mwe> arachnion: kind of?
[06:24] <arachnion> yeah
[06:25] <arachnion> it failed completely
[06:25] <mwe> arachnion: how so?
[06:25] <arachnion> some setting must be wrong
[06:25] <gregg__> harisund: $EDITOR
[06:25] <harisund> gregg ah thanks.
[06:25] <mwe> arachnion: check the log file. grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:25] <harisund> gregg got it :)
[06:25] <arachnion> i have 2 monitors attached to my grafics card
[06:25] <gregg__> harisund: and install nvi for god's sake :)
[06:25] <arachnion> ill check
[06:26] <gregg__> nvi: teh vi
[06:26] <gregg__> vim: bloatware
[06:26] <gregg__> :-)
[06:26] <frogzoo> harisund: man visudo - both VISUAL & EDITOR env variables
[06:26] <soldier914> do i have to pay a extra 15.50 for renewing the account?

[06:28] <mwe> arachnion: it doesn't sound so good
[06:28] <arachnion> hehe
[06:28] <soldier914> hello
[06:28] <mwe> arachnion: you probably need to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:28] <soldier914> do i HAVE to pay for renewing my account or is it optional?
[06:28] <gregg__> abhinay: vlc can do it too, and it has a GUI
[06:29] <mwe> arachnion: or edit xorg.conf by hand
[06:29] <arachnion> ill try that
[06:29] <gregg__> soldier914: what kind of account?
[06:29] <soldier914> for wine cedega
[06:29] <abhinay> gregg__, i have mplayer , even tho not playing

[06:29] <frogzoo> soldier914: not if you use wine
[06:29] <gregg__> abhinay: what exactly is the problem? what does mplayer spit out?
[06:29] <Imme-emosol> Hello anyone here who van help me correct my monitor problem?
[06:29] <scared> what is the utility to unextract .rar archives ?
[06:29] <soldier914> but i want to play call of duty on ubuntu
[06:29] <soldier914> and wine cedega is how much?
[06:29] <soldier914> 5.50
[06:29] <mwe> soldier914: doesn't it say?
[06:29] <soldier914> ?
[06:30] <soldier914> every month
[06:30] <wildman> Imme-emosol, don't be so polite, ask directly :)
[06:30] <gregg__> scared: unrar
[06:30] <Ng> scared: if you install rar or unrar from multiverse/universe you can use the regular archive manager
[06:30] <mwe> soldier914: google.com/search?q=cedega and read the terms
[06:30] <frogzoo> mike1_: sudo chmod 755 /home/mike1

[06:30] <dswillia74437> does evolution have to use OWA for exchange sync?
[06:30] <abhinay> gregg__, i open the disc in mplayer by  clicking VCD > Open Disc...  , it is saying  Failed to open vcd://5
[06:30] <scared> ok thank you.
[06:31] <arachnion> mwe... dual monitor is something i can worry about later, right?
[06:31] <abhinay> when i tried to copy the DAT file (video file) from the disk to my system , i got  :  Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr...SEQ01.DAT".
[06:31] <gregg__> abhinay: vcd://5?
[06:31] <stefg> Ballsy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions could be intresting
[06:31] <gregg__> abhinay: try "mplayer vcd://" on commandline
[06:32] <Imme-emosol> wildman Why not be polite, I like it that way. :P But I guess that's not how things go @ irc-channel... :)
[06:32] <mwe> arachnion: yeah I'd get to work with a single monitor first
[06:32] <abhinay> gregg__, i got Audio: no sound
[06:32] <abhinay> Starting playback...
[06:32] <abhinay> V:   0.0   0/  0 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0
[06:32] <abhinay> Exiting... (End of file)
[06:32] <wildman> Imme-emosol, of course, being polite is preferred, just try not to be "so" polite, when asking questions: just ask the question, you can skip the "can I ask something?" part ;)
[06:32] <mike1_> frogzoo:  thanks, now on to wireless issues :)
[06:33] <gregg__> abhinay: strange, maybe your vcd is not ok? give vlc a try
[06:33] <soldier914> winex is cedega?
[06:33] <deltron> yes soldier914
[06:33] <deltron> pretty much cedega
[06:33] <deltron> but free
[06:33] <deltron> though cedega seems to work a lot easier
[06:33] <soldier914> but it takes me to a ft site
[06:33] <Imme-emosol> wildman: Ah okay. :) Maybe you can help me out, I'm on a laptop but I've got black borders around my display. In text-mode it's the same.
[06:33] <sharms> wildman, Imme-emosol: Being terse can be quite polite depending on the forum
[06:33] <abhinay> gregg__, not playing in vlc also
[06:33] <kalosaurusrex> anyone good with ssh?  I'm trying to figure out how to make ssh use port 80 instead of 22.  I've changed the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to port 80 but I can't connect to it. when I change it back it works.  router is setup correctly with port forwarding port 80 to my system, I've verified with firestarter that port 80 is open for anyone..what am I missing?
[06:33] <soldier914> i dont know what to do from there
[06:33] <sharms> !tell Imme-emosol about resolution
[06:34] <soldier914> ftp*
[06:34] <Jeruvy> kalosaurusrex: do you havbe anything else on port 80?
[06:34] <Jeruvy> s/havbe/have
[06:34] <deltron> soldier914: what link? msg me it
[06:34] <soldier914> k
[06:34] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are not using the laptop's optimal resolution
[06:34] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: when you've switched it over, does "telnet localhost 80" show an SSH connection string?
[06:34] <kalosaurusrex> no.  apache and no other web service is configure for port 80, that I can tell..
[06:34] <gregg__> abhinay: in this I'd say the vcd or your drive is to be blamed... you might want to check permissions to your cd/dvd device thoough
[06:34] <gregg__> abhinay: check whether it works as root (sudo=
[06:34] <Imme-emosol> sharms tell me about opening a !tell me about resolution in irssi. :D
[06:34] <Imme-emosol> I can see Act: 1
[06:34] <mwe> soldier914: http://transgaming.org/subscription/subscribe.html
[06:34] <abhinay> gregg__, Yes iam able to play in xine
[06:35] <frogzoo> mike1_: cool, enjoy
[06:35] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: yes that works
[06:35] <soldier914> yes?
[06:35] <wildman> Imme-emosol, laptop's LCD in particular have that small nicety: if not being used at full resolution, the screen is not 'stretched' to take the whole viewable area
[06:35] <sharms> Imme-emosol: alt-1
[06:35] <gregg__> abhinay: no clue what's wrong then
[06:35] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: then the next step would be to disable firestarter and try again from outside
[06:35] <mwe> soldier914: you asked about the price right? there it is
[06:35] <Imme-emosol> wildman how can i figure out the resolution?
[06:35] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: okay thanks!
[06:35] <blekos> hello ppl
[06:35] <Imme-emosol> In my xorg.conf it says it's way bigger then irl...
[06:35] <blekos> its been awhile :)
[06:35] <mwe> soldier914: I'd check the list of supported games first though
[06:36] <abhinay> gregg__, why it is not copying to my disk , when i tried to copy it , it is saying Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr...SEQ01.DAT".
[06:36] <soldier914> where is it?
[06:36] <blekos> does anybody had keyboard problems with the new release?
[06:36] <Rambo3> !info elisa breezy
[06:36] <ubotu> Package elisa does not exist in breezy
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: there are a few handfulls that are working 100%
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: where is what
[06:36] <soldier914> the list
[06:36] <soldier914> should i google it?
[06:36] <blekos> i am trying to use greek keyboard but cannot get the accent(?) over the letters
[06:36] <wildman> Imme-emosol, way bigger than what? url?
[06:36] <wildman> sorry
[06:36] <wildman> Imme-emosol, way bigger than what? *irl ?
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: please spend a minute clicking about on the site
[06:36] <gregg__> abhinay: vcd broken... they use a less safe scheme for error correction than data cd-roms
[06:36] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: am I correct that the command is ssh -p 80 <ip> ?
[06:37] <Imme-emosol> wildman > *in real life
[06:37] <mwe> soldier914: or should I do it for, then paste the direct link?
[06:37] <billybennett> How would I run 2 commands togeather.. with a pipe?
[06:37] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: to make ssh use port 80 on THIS computer to connect to my other computer. hehe
[06:37] <wildman> Imme-emosol, oups :) thx
[06:37] <wildman> Imme-emosol, right now, I think you have it way smaller anyway
[06:37] <abhinay> gregg__, is there any way to copy it ...
[06:37] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: at this stage it'll be easier to just do "telnet ip 80", if you get the ssh connect string then all should be well
[06:37] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: ahh okay
[06:37] <mwe> soldier914: just a sec. going to transgaming.org ...
[06:38] <wildman> Imme-emosol, cannot find an easy way here to check the resolution, other than pressing my LCD's (not laptop) Info button :)
[06:38] <wildman> Imme-emosol, do you know which is your laptop's max resolution?
[06:38] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: well that works..
[06:38] <theBeno> Anyone know where I can get some help with duel monitors?
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: hold on, clicking on games database
[06:38] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: I can telnet to it.
[06:38] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: then try with ssh -p 80
[06:38] <soldier914> k
[06:38] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: if that still works, the problem is firestarter
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: here it is http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: why didn't you just go there?
[06:38] <Imme_emosol> wildman sorry I closed my terminal window somehow. Stupid laptop keyboards... :P
[06:38] <arachnion> mwe, my settings seem better now, but i still cant startx... still EE no devices found
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: it just sits there so far..
[06:39] <gregg__> abhinay: dd with conv=noerror,sync
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, do you know which is your laptop's max resolution?
[06:39] <mwe> arachnion: did you enter correct info to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[06:39] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: that might be a DNS thing, leave it for 30 seconds or so
[06:39] <soldier914> yeah it has it
[06:39] <Imme_emosol> wildman > no, how can I figure this out?
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, by reading the specs
[06:39] <mwe> soldier914: as fully supported?
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, which laptop do you have?
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: klk
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: thanks for your help
[06:39] <Ng> np
[06:40] <soldier914> i don't know i just see it in the list

[06:40] <Imme_emosol> wildman > A Toshiba Sattelite Pro 4200 Series
[06:40] <alakdan> anyone using xen here? just wondering if you know of xen enabled ubuntu kernel image
[06:40] <mwe> soldier914: look at the page
[06:40] <Imme_emosol> wildman > State of the art. :P   I'll try to look it up on internet then.
[06:40] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[06:40] <wildman> Imme-emosol, looking for it now too :)
[06:41] <mwe> soldier914: it says 4 of 5 starts which means mostly working
[06:41] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: hmm, I'm not sure offhand, check /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/syslog
[06:41] <mwe> soldier914: further it's not officially supported by transgaming. it will probably be ok
[06:41] <arachnion> mwe, should i disconnect my secondary monitor, perhaps>
[06:41] <arachnion> and reboot
[06:42] <arachnion> or startx then or something... dunno
[06:42] <soldier914> http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/ratings/view.mhtml?game_id=3200
[06:42] <soldier914> go there please
[06:42] <Imme_emosol> Can I lock a terminal window ? Or move what is open in my terminal window to a tty?
[06:43] <Guest477> >just a request for a linux friendly, inexpensive webhost service from a personal recommendation
[06:43] <calloc> ive tried to setup htaccess on one of my apache dirs, just doesnt seem to be working, anyone any ideas??
[06:43] <mwe> soldier914: I thought you meant united offensive. still 4 of 5 starts though
[06:43] <gregg__> Imme_emosol: sounds like a job for screen
[06:43] <soldier914> yeah that too
[06:43] <soldier914> i play that mostly
[06:43] <gregg__> maybe this stupid bot knows about screen?
[06:43] <gregg__> !screen
[06:43] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[06:43] <mwe> arachnion: maybe you already answered but are you sure you answered all questions correctly?
[06:44] <kalosaurusrex>  Ng: nothing of much interest in either of those. rawr
[06:44] <arachnion> no, ofcourse im not sure
[06:44] <arachnion> btw, most of the auto-detection fails i think
[06:44] <Imme_emosol> !screen > wf
[06:44] <user-land> thank you, subhuman, the nvidia driver is working well.
[06:44] <Imme_emosol> !screen < wf
[06:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about screen < wf - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:44] <mwe> soldier914: personally I play games in windows because they generally run better
[06:45] <Subhuman> user-land, oh good :D
[06:45] <arachnion> theres just a detection problem or something
[06:45] <mwe> soldier914: and most games I play don't run in linux at all
[06:45] <soldier914> oh
[06:45] <Guest477> !webhost

[06:45] <wildman> Imme-emosol, http://www.arcetri.astro.it/~lfini/LinuxLaptops/Toshiba.Sat.Pro.4200/ might help you
[06:45] <Imme_emosol> grmbl how do I do !screen to just me?
[06:45] <stefg> !fixres > bikini
[06:45] <user-land> this time i enabled kernel interference though in dpkg-reconfigure, Subhuman, is that good, it was on 'No' by default.
[06:46] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: hmm I changed to debug.  it says binding to port 80 on 0.0.0.0--shouldn't that be 127?
[06:46] <gregg__> !screen > Imme_emosol
[06:46] <wildman> Imme-emosol, it looks like 800x600 is the max res supported by your "state of the art" laptop
[06:46] <mwe> soldier914: I'm also to lazy to spend hours or days just getting the games to run
[06:46] <soldier914> lol
[06:46] <soldier914> wow?
[06:46] <XenonG> ?
[06:47] <Subhuman> user-land, im not sure, i left it off, but if you get any issues with it just switch it off ya know?
[06:47] <user-land> ok :-)
[06:47] <arachnion> gah... ill have to ask my linux-expert friend, this is just me messing
[06:47] <DavidJ> how would I set up my laptop's native resolution of 1440x900?
[06:47] <studprog> hi all --- i've got this problem ... i'm trying to use debian installer to make a hands off installation of Ubuntu across a network ...  currently i'm using preseed/late_command to 1) fetch a postinstall script 2) chmod it to be executable 3) run it ...  - the first command in the postinstall script is to chroot into /target - but it seems that the commands thereafter isn't run (amongst others to update sources.list and install additional packages
[06:47] <Imme_emosol> wildman: 2 bad. thnx for the help
[06:47] <studprog> ) .... my question is : where should i chroot? and when/where -- in the preseed command or in the script (which does not seem to work)
[06:47] <arachnion> o/
[06:47] <soldier914> what do i do with this here?
[06:47] <soldier914> http://cvs.transgaming.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/
[06:47] <wildman> Imme-emosol, welcomed, good luck
[06:47] <Imme_emosol> wildman: thnx anyway.
[06:48] <soldier914> can someone tell me what to do in that link?
[06:48] <soldier914> so save it and install it
[06:48] <mwe> soldier914: I believe there are instructions on the site somewhere
[06:49] <Imme_emosol> wildman what was the url again I had to type it and probably typed something wrong since my browser does not agree with me...
[06:49] <Viper550> I know what the hot addon for an Ubuntu desktop is right now...
[06:49] <kennyt> is there a smaller graphical livecd/installer?
[06:49] <Viper550> no
[06:49] <mwe> soldier914: you need to compile it yourself. install all the nececary ubuntu development packages first or you cant
[06:49] <wildman> Imme-emosol, http://www.arcetri.astro.it/~lfini/LinuxLaptops/Toshiba.Sat.Pro.4200/ might help you
[06:49] <polpak> kennyt, smaller in what respect?
[06:49] <Imme_emosol> tnx
[06:50] <XenonG> Alternative CD or something is the only way
[06:50] <wildman> Imme-emosol, welcomed
[06:50] <user-land> is there an easy way to move home to its own partition ?
[06:50] <kennyt> polpak: to fit on a 650 MB CD
[06:50] <stefg> user-land: /quite/ easy
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: yes
[06:50] <feydin> hi there, during startup at the point where "checking all filesystems" my screen becomes black, no error message, but he tells me something about reiserfs and that 0 actions are replayed.... is that normal?
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: just mount the partition on /home
[06:50] <user-land> thank you, mwe.
[06:50] <Viper550> Anyone?
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: move the data there first though
[06:50] <Paladine> anyone know how to change from metacity to fluxbox in ubuntu?
[06:50] <XenonG> Feydin, Wait a few minutes and see.
[06:51] <pdc303> Hi, I just installed alternate-6.0.6. Why would xorg mouse driver 'void' not be present?
[06:51] <mwe> user-land: mounting it else where while moving
[06:51] <Paladine> I can't find anywhere to set window manager up
[06:51] <XenonG> Mine last time was like this.
[06:51] <sztanphet> what whoulsd i set to access my desktop from the net on ubuntu
[06:51] <kennyt> polpak: i have 650MB CD-RWs and I can remove some unnecessary mess from the /usr tree so that the image is < 650 MB, but can't make it bootable
[06:51] <feydin> XenonG, he continues booting
[06:51] <sztanphet> should
[06:51] <mwe> user-land: I mean if /home already contains user data
[06:51] <feydin> XenonG, just wanted to now why this happens
[06:51] <wildman> xota, hola, but this is an English-only speaking channel
[06:52] <XenonG> Heh, mine way like this when I use Microsoft Vitual PC 2004 dude.
[06:52] <wildman> xota, "/join #ubuntu-es" para espaol
[06:52] <XenonG> Had to wait an extra 1 minute
[06:53] <roostishaw> what else besides #!/usr/bin/perl can i put at the very beginning of a perl script, to have it interpreted correctly?
[06:53] <Guest477> !Microsoft Vitual PC > Guest477

[06:53] <bikini> how do i change the resolution of my monitor?
[06:53] <CarlFK> bikini: system, prefs, screen res
[06:53] <kennyt> Is there a way to write the LiveCD to a disk partition and boot from that?
[06:53] <stefg> bikini: did you get the pm from ubotu?
[06:54] <bikini> stefg: yeah send it again, i accidently closed xchat
[06:54] <CarlFK> kennyt: why not just install?
[06:54] <user-land> mwe, would that be correct when i am on the new partition ?:  sudo cp -R /home/username .
[06:54] <polpak> kennyt, I believe there is a wiki tutorial for customizing the install cd
[06:54] <bikini> carlfk: my new monitor needs a higher resolution than whats offered.
[06:54] <stefg> !fixres > bikini
[06:54] <kennyt> CarlFK: the livecd image is too big to fit on the cd-rws i have
[06:54] <XenonG> Kennyt, no you will need to format that drive with a file format like ext3
[06:54] <delight> hi
[06:54] <CarlFK> user-land: guessing you want cp -a
[06:54] <soldier914> so uhmm can someone help me
[06:54] <gr33npho3nix> !fixres > gr33npho3nix
[06:54] <XenonG> to be able to add any data into it
[06:54] <delight> does anybody know what that .wapi folder is good for in the home folder ?
[06:55] <Moox> hi there. How assign a program to an extension  in gnome?
[06:55] <user-land> like this mwe ?: sudo cp -a /home/usernam .

[06:55] <boga> which is better for a dual-head video card, AGP or PCI?
[06:55] <CarlFK> kennyt: ah - i misunderstood.  no normal blanks?
[06:55] <delight> !wapi
[06:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about wapi - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:55] <sharms> boga: neither is better specificially for dualhead, although generally agp cards have better 3d performance
[06:55] <kennyt> CarlFK: nope--and i need to make a ppc livecd :\
[06:55] <Moox> great...so easy... thanks delight
[06:56] <boga> sharms: thanx, but I heard that AGP is slowly being phased out!
[06:56] <delight> Moox: yes gnome is supposed to work the easy way ;)
[06:56] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: so it DOES connect.
[06:56] <CarlFK> kennyt: are you trying to install, or just do LIveCD things ?
[06:56] <soldier914> yeah i need to know what i have to do ijn that repository
[06:56] <neighborlee> just out of curiosity..why in linux do we users have to leave 'x' to install nvidia drivers ?? ;))
[06:56] <sharms> boga: there is a large difference between PCI and PCI-e
[06:56] <kennyt> CarlFK: i'd like to install
[06:56] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: it stops here: debug1: identity file /home/aaron/.ssh/id_dsa type -1
[06:57] <boga> sharms: do you know which card is best for Dapper?
[06:57] <polpak> kennyt, http://wiki.oss-watch.ac.uk/UbuntuDapper/Remaster
[06:57] <boga> and cheap too!
[06:57] <stefg> neighborlee: you dont have to
[06:57] <CarlFK> kennyt: look at the alternate-CD - it is smaller (300?) - but you don't get a full install.  you need to do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:57] <sharms> boga: any nvidia agp card should be cheap and great, I have a 6600gt agp and it works good and is only $99 or so on ebay
[06:57] <facerape> ok ive just installed ubuntu and despite being plugged into my router im not getting any internet on it
[06:57] <facerape> anyone got any ideas?

[06:58] <polpak> CarlFK, you can certainly do a full install from the alternate install cd.
[06:58] <facerape> <-- linux noob
[06:59] <Imme_emosol> wildman that sit is about redhat, it's talkikng about framebuffer graphic driver, but doesn't ubuntu have this by default?

[07:01] <chucky> greenphoenix: where do i put in ifconfig
[07:01] <soldier914> hello
[07:01] <wildman> Imme-emosol, but if you get a 'small' screen, it may be 640x480 instead
[07:01] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: in a terminal on your ubuntu machine

[07:02] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: in the terminal
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, make sure the Modes line on your xorg.conf's "Screen" section reads: Modes "800x600" "640x480"
[07:02] <polpak> soldier914, there is no winex  there is cedega (which used to be called winex) and there's wine
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, and restart X, and cross fingers :)

[07:03] <wildman> Imme-emosol, dunno
[07:03] <chucky> k i get a bunch more stuff
[07:04] <mwe> soldier914: to install cedega-cvs you need all the necesary ubuntu devel packages to be installed before you can compile it
[07:04] <sharms> __doc__: not free, but I play warcraft III
[07:04] <soldier914> and how do i do that?
[07:04] <soldier914> rtepositories?
[07:04] <wildman> Imme-emosol, what I do know is that my current resolution is listed first on that line, no matter how many others I have
[07:04] <Imme_emosol> yancheng: you should type the url for that file in the program you want to use.
[07:04] <user-land> thank you, mwe, going to reboot to try that.
[07:04] <oezguer> hi, i have logitec notebook  webcam,, what should i do to my friends to see me? at Amsn?? help plssss

[07:05] <soldier914> you sure?
[07:05] <polpak> soldier914, standard (free) wine will work fine
[07:06] <polpak> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3603
[07:06] <soldier914> you tried it before
[07:06] <soldier914> ?
[07:06] <Redrose> how do i specify which device I would like nmap to use?
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, ^^
[07:06] <chucky> and thats the same subnet i use on my windows b0x
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, read the link
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: it it says its recives and address you should be fine
[07:06] <chucky> surely that means i should have some form of communication with the net
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> if you see the same line repeated over and over
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, you can get wine from www.winehq.org by following the instructions, or you can install the version from the standard repositories
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> then it means you have other problems
[07:07] <soldier914> what avbout united offensive?
[07:07] <soldier914> about*
[07:07] <chucky> it looks like it makes sence
[07:07] <pdc303> Hi, I just installed alternate-6.0.6. Why would xorg mouse driver 'void' not be present?
[07:07] <chucky> but still cant get http pages
[07:07] <polpak> soldier914, is that a mod? or a sequal?
[07:07] <The_boss> hi to everyone, i'm using this OS from about 2 weeks, and i have a little problem: to select some files in a list i've to press down the ctrl button + the windows button. why????
[07:07] <soldier914> its a expansion pack
[07:07] <polpak> soldier914, it'll probably work fine
[07:08] <soldier914> berings with the call of duty deluxe edition
[07:08] <polpak> soldier914, unless there's major reworking of the engine (which is unlikely for an expansion)
[07:08] <The_boss> any idea?
[07:08] <soldier914> can i play online with wine
[07:09] <soldier914> ?
[07:09] <wildman> The_boss, to select non-consecutive files in a list you just have to Ctrl+click
[07:09] <polpak> The_boss, the ctrl button alone works fine for me
[07:09] <polpak> soldier914, I don't know. why not try and see
[07:09] <The_boss> tes, i know that i've to click
[07:09] <The_boss> but it doesn't work
[07:09] <The_boss> without the windows button
[07:09] <The_boss> :(
[07:09] <polpak> !enter
[07:09] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[07:10] <Imme_emosol> To go to tty1 or 2 or 3 or whatever is Ctrl+ Alt+ F1,2,3,whatever or am i wrong?
[07:10] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are right
[07:10] <The_boss> no idea about to correct this? :-D
[07:11] <wildman> The_boss, really strange... Ctrl alone works here w/o any pb at all (and I don't have a US keyboard...)
[07:11] <Imme_emosol> So why isn't it working :S :(
[07:11] <Ratzilla> !tell Ratzilla w32codecs
[07:11] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell Ratzilla w32codecs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:11] <wildman> Imme-emosol, can't you just open another terminal window?
[07:11] <sharms> Imme-emosol: still having an x problem?
[07:11] <user-land> how do i see if it worked, mwe ? how can i delete the home dir files on the old location (/dev/sda1) ?
[07:12] <The_boss> thanks to all :D
[07:12] <wildman> The_boss, Ctrl alone works now? :)
[07:12] <Imme_emosol> I want to see if I can move this window to a tty window first...
[07:12] <sharms> !tell Ratzilla about win32codecs
[07:12] <ubotu> I know nothing about win32codecs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:12] <sharms> !tell Ratzilla about w32codecs
[07:12] <Ratzilla> thanks :)
[07:12] <sharms> hehe took long enough
[07:13] <sharms> to switch virtual windows in IRSSI I use alt-1, alt-2, alt-3
[07:13] <soldier914> omg now i cant reload cause of this cvs shit
[07:13] <tailsfan> I'm having trouble install alsa-utils
[07:13] <sharms> !tell tailsfan about sound
[07:13] <soldier914> how do i remove it
[07:13] <soldier914> >?
[07:13] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are on a console already? using a text-based IRC client?
[07:13] <gregg__> Imme_emosol: you can'
[07:13] <gregg__> t
[07:13] <Imme_emosol> wildman I'm in a termihnal window
[07:14] <wildman> Imme-emosol, and you cannot open another one?
[07:14] <tailsfan> !sound
[07:14] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:14] <The_boss> ok
[07:14] <Imme-emosol> wildman: I can but want to be in another tty, you know with the black and white
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, Ctrl+Alt+F1 ?
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, pressed in that order ;)
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, w/o releasing the previously pressed ones
[07:15] <soldier914> i cant reload the list of installaed packages
[07:15] <The_boss> one things more about my "ctrl button" problem: when i push ctrl and left click appears a "+" as pointer... :-|

[07:39] <Alex0r> Yeah
[07:40] <xlumin> hi all
[07:40] <tmccrary> git = worst code revisioning system ever made
[07:40] <Pandora82> ok... nice that somebody tells me... ;-) so how do I open them with e.g. VLC
[07:40] <Alex0r> Uh
[07:40] <kitche> tmccrary: git is good you just need to read the docs
[07:40] <tmccrary> whoever wrote it should be stabbed in the eyes with a spoon until death
[07:40] <tmccrary> No, git sucks
[07:40] <Alex0r> put the disk in your dvd drive, then go open directory with VLC
[07:40] <soldier914> now it couldnt load some codll.dll file
[07:40] <tmccrary> fatal: unexpected EOF
[07:40] <xlumin> i'm currently struggling to install dapper on my (currently gentoo'd) PowerBook Pismo
[07:40] <soldier914> something like that
[07:40] <trappist> tmccrary: do you have a technical criticism or are you a troll?
[07:41] <Alex0r> and then find your dvd directory, click it, and voila
[07:41] <soldier914> do i have tio make a folder with all the files from the cd in it?
[07:41] <sponix> Pandora82:  do you have libdvdcss2 and libdvdread ?
[07:41] <xlumin> an i'm getting weird errors from gnome on login (to the livecd)
[07:41] <tmccrary> I'm pretty pissed, but a quick google search shows I'm not alone
[07:41] <Pandora82> sponix yes
[07:41] <tmccrary> git is unreliable
[07:41] <soldier914> gnomefreak,do i have to make a folder with all the files from the cd?
[07:41] <sponix> Pandora82:  ok, what exactly was your issue, again /
[07:41] <xlumin> gnome-settings-daemon and bonobo don't seem to be starting, so i got no nautilus
[07:41] <Alex0r> He couldn't mount a DVD
[07:41] <soldier914> copy and paste all the files from the cd to the new folder on the desktop?
[07:41] <Pandora82> she...
[07:42] <Alex0r> But you don't mount a DVD.. He wanted to watch it
[07:42] <xlumin> and ubiquity won't start, so i can't actually install, i'm confused..
[07:42] <sponix> Pandora82:  oh, well a DVD should mount, no matter what, even if you can't play the movie files off of it
[07:42] <ulaas> hiya. anyone had luck with XGL on dapper?
[07:42] <user-land> Now i have a problem with the screen resolution, the system preferences only allow up to 1024 pixels, but my monitor has 1280 ...
[07:42] <xlumin> anybody ever have any issues like that?
[07:42] <Alex0r> XGL + Dapper = Alex cant do
[07:42] <tmccrary> defaulting to local storage area
[07:42] <tmccrary> fatal: unexpected EOF
[07:42] <tmccrary> clone-pack from 'git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/util/makedepend' failed.
[07:42] <soldier914> gnomefreak?
[07:43] <tmccrary> git = AWESOME
[07:43] <sponix> Pandora82:  to watch with mplayer, its normally mplayer dvd://1 or for vlc you can go to open disc and tell it dvd://1 (if title1 is the movie)
[07:43] <ulaas> Alex0r: nvidia?
[07:43] <Alex0r> Yar
[07:43] <Pandora82> sponix that doesn't work
[07:43] <sponix> Pandora82:  some players (kaffeine) are smart enough to just play the movie by finding the main title though
[07:44] <sponix> Pandora82:  any errors ?
[07:44] <soldier914> anyone here can help me with my call of duty installation?
[07:44] <ulaas> Alex0r: whats your problem? maybe we share...
[07:44] <Axe_> Hello.. how do I enable more screen resolutions to be chosen
[07:44] <Axe_> editing some X config file Im' sure
[07:44] <Pandora82> not with VLC, Mplayer brought some errors
[07:44] <Alex0r> Mine just flat out wont install
[07:44] <Alex0r> But I never tried again
[07:44] <kitche> Axe_: edit xorg.conf
[07:44] <Alex0r> Imma go on Ubuntu
[07:44] <Alex0r> Beeeee right back
[07:44] <sponix> Pandora82:  mplayer -v -d /dev/dvd might show the layout of the dvd, and you can play guess and test on what title you need to play etc
[07:44] <Axe_> kitche: where is that located
[07:44] <jrib> !fixres > soldier914
[07:44] <rhican> is it easy/safe to replace gdm with kdm on an ubuntu?
[07:44] <amortvigil> sharms i have lamp but in order to get php5 woring together with mysql you have to add --with-mysql in a configuration file
[07:45] <kitche> Axe_: /etc/X11
[07:45] <jrib> !fixres > Axe_
[07:45] <xlumin> Axe /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[07:45] <jrib> soldier914: sorry, that wasn't for you
[07:45] <soldier914> oh okaay
[07:45] <ForeClosure> whats the different if i install unbuntu in VMware and normal pc ?
[07:45] <gnomefreak> ok sorry phone im back
[07:45] <sponix> rhican:  yeah, its not hard, there is only one file to edit.. want me to look it up for ya ?
[07:46] <rhican> don't bother i'll google it later today
[07:46] <gnomefreak> soldier914: look for the .exe files and tell me what their names are
[07:46] <kitche> amirtvigil to get php5 to work with mysql you would add --with-mysql during the configure stage
[07:47] <Pandora82> failed to open dvd... that's what mplayer says
[07:47] <xavi> hi, i've a problem with dapper, i can't boot with acpi enabled. I've a Toshiba Satellite M70-165. Can anyone help me?
[07:48] <soldier914> gnomefreak,the setup and launch.exe are the only .exe files in the cd
[07:48] <xlumin> ok guys, seriously tho, has anyone had any issues with the livecd not starting CORBA/bonobo/GSD properly, an therefore not bein able to get ubiquity to start?
[07:48] <soldier914> well in the main folder
[07:48] <gnomefreak> soldier914: launch.exe save that to desktop
[07:48] <chucky> ive got google to load but i cant get other pages to work
[07:48] <sponix> rhican:  /etc/X11/default-display-manager   just change from gdm to kdm in that file... I have ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu all installed, but as long as you have a working kdm that should pick right up
[07:48] <chucky> i can do a search on google but cant follow any of the links it provides
[07:49] <gnomefreak> soldier914: once that is saved try wine launch.exe
[07:49] <sponix> Pandora82:  have you tried just mount /dev/dvd /mnt to see if you can browse the files on it ?
[07:49] <soldier914> but i made a new folder
[07:49] <rhican> sponix, many tnx ;)
[07:49] <soldier914> with all the files in it
[07:49] <soldier914> on my desktop
[07:49] <gnomefreak> soldier914: whats the folders name?
[07:50] <soldier914> i named it Call Of Duty
[07:50] <xavi> hi, i've a problem with dapper, i can't boot with acpi enabled. I've a Toshiba Satellite M70-165. Can anyone help me?
[07:50] <soldier914> this is what i did
[07:50] <Pandora82> sponix it says: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[07:50] <soldier914> i made a new folder in the desktop naming it Call Of Duty
[07:50] <ajayc> richiefrich, Oo
[07:50] <gnomefreak> ok soldier914 try to run it as i said if not cd Call Of Duty
[07:50] <soldier914> then i copied all the fuiles from the cd to the new folders
[07:50] <soldier914> files*
[07:50] <ajayc> xavi, whats the prob?
[07:51] <gnomefreak> soldier914: wine wont run everything so im not real sure if it will run this game.
[07:51] <soldier914> it will
[07:51] <soldier914> i sawe it
[07:51] <gnomefreak> soldier914: if my way doesnt work i would try in #winehq
[07:51] <xavi> i can't boot my computer with acpi

[07:56] <ChadWick> i need some help with permissions
[07:57] <soldier914> gnomefreak,access denied
[07:57] <Pandora82> tried it with xine, vlc, ... but I think the problem is not the player but the computer doesn't detect the DVD
[07:57] <ForeClosure> which is better ? mplayer ? or xine ?
[07:57] <ChadWick> i need help setting the permissions for the /usr folder.
[07:57] <arrakn0> mplayer
[07:57] <jrib> ForeClosure: mplayer imo, but both are good
[07:57] <kitche> soldier914: and gnomefreak soudns like a permission problem
[07:57] <arrakn0> yes
[07:58] <Pandora82> it often says no medium found, no filetype spedified and stuff like that
[07:58] <gumpish> I ran: mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb and Ubuntu says "/dev/hdb is apparently in use by the system..." but running mount shows that it's not being used at all... wtf?
[07:58] <kitche> gumpish /dev/hdb is the drive but its probably being used as /dev/hdb1
[07:58] <ChadWick> anyone?
[07:59] <xavi> it doesn't boot  with acpi=off. I only can boot with acpi=off
[07:59] <jrib> Pandora82: can you pastebin the errors from 'mplayer dvd://' and does the drive work with normal cd's ok?
[07:59] <gumpish> but mount doesn't show ANY partition on "hdb" at all... no hdb1, hdb2... nothing with hdb
[07:59] <Alex0r> does dapper already have xgl installed?
[07:59] <xavi> sorry, it doesn't boot  with acpi=force. I only can boot with acpi=off
[07:59] <xopher> anyone interested in trying out bmpx amd64 debs?
[07:59] <Pandora82> jrib yes, and it works well with cds
[07:59] <ForeClosure> whats the package if i wanna read .nfo files ?
[07:59] <Alex0r> coz it seems like i have it installed
[07:59] <gnomefreak> soldier914: is there a lock icon on that folder on your desktop?
[08:00] <edan> hi all
[08:00] <soldier914> no?
[08:00] <soldier914> i deleted the folder
[08:00] <GaiaX11> Is there any program for Linux which emulates AutoCad for Windows?
[08:00] <edan> I have a slight wifi prob. I have a rt2500 based card in my machine and I want to use WPA
[08:00] <Pandora82> jrib where can I post the shell message?
[08:00] <jrib> Pandora82: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:00] <gnomefreak> soldier914: oh ok
[08:00] <edan> so I config the card in /etc/network/interfaces and when my machine boots, it works fine, connects with WPA fine
[08:01] <GaiaX11> There is an engineer here asking me about this. Any hints?
[08:01] <gnomefreak> soldier914: im not really sure what to say other than please try in #winehq if noone in here knows
[08:01] <gumpish> apropos seems to be broken - it only says "nothing appropriate" no matter what I search for.
[08:01] <Pandora82> done jrib
[08:01] <jrib> Pandora82: url?
[08:01] <ForeClosure> how i wanna read .nfo files ?
[08:01] <soldier914> i did
[08:01] <kitche> GaiaX11 I think autocad runs under wine fine
[08:01] <edan> then after a few seconds, it stops working but if I disable/enable the card it works fine and doesn't fail
[08:01] <soldier914> no one will answer
[08:01] <edan> any idea
[08:01] <edan> s?
[08:01] <Pandora82> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18368
[08:01] <sri_> drop sri_ kodali
[08:01] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: iirc there are a few autocad programs in apt
[08:02] <edan> actually, if I jsut open network-admin and delete th eDNS so the card resets, it start working
[08:02] <GaiaX11> gnomefreak: Could you tell me which ones?
[08:02] <imme> How come my other workspaces suddenly dissappeared:S ?
[08:02] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: hold that thought let me look
[08:03] <imme> No Ctrl+Alt+2 either...
[08:03] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: are you on dapper?
[08:03] <gnomefreak> GaiaX11: here is one qcad

[08:05] <Alex0r> I'm drinking cider >_>
[08:05] <mcphail> I have just apt-got the k7 kernel (having been using 686) but X will not start, claiming it cannot load the nvidia driver. Any ideas?
[08:05] <jrib> Pandora82: can you browse the contents of the dvd?
[08:05] <Pandora82> is cider available for linux too?
[08:06] <Alex0r> Sure!
[08:06] <Pandora82> jrib no - or at least I don't know how
[08:06] <PanicFo> i have an sql dump file containing several databases.. how can i import it to my mysql server in ubuntu?
[08:06] <kitche> mcphail: when you switch kernels the modules have to be recompiled
[08:06] <kitche> or reinstalled
[08:07] <imme> PanicFo, what do you mean bij sql dump file?
[08:07] <mcphail> kitche: apt-get install claims it is at the latest version. Should I be using a different command?
[08:07] <xavi> does anyone know how to boot a Toshiba satellite m70 with acpi enabled? I only can boot it with acpi=off. I've dapper

[08:07] <PanicFo> ive recently switched from winxp to ubuntu and i need to get my databases into ubuntu
[08:07] <jrib> Pandora82: what does 'mount' say?  (pastebin)
[08:07] <Pandora82> jrib when I try to doubleclick the device it says: mount: no medium found (so I can't open it to browse)
[08:08] <kitche> mcphail: I think you might have to uninstall it and reinstall I tend to grab nvidia drivers right from their site so I know that it will work
[08:08] <PanicFo> by dump file i mean that i made a dump of all the contents on the old server
[08:08] <imme> PanicFo, do you have phpmyadmin or something similar installed?
[08:08] <PanicFo> aye but it fails
[08:08] <imme> PanicFo,  how come?
[08:08] <kkman> hi
[08:08] <mcphail> kitche: ok, thanks.
[08:08] <PanicFo> i think its a syntax error
[08:09] <Pandora82> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18370
[08:09] <kkman> i am trying to get persistent vnc on Ubuntu
[08:09] <kkman> (using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402&page=12&highlight=vnc)
[08:09] <jstew> I have a printign problem. I just upgraded to dapper and I'm connected to a printer through SMB and now I have to put in my username, password, SMB share and printer settings for the printer whenever I log off.
[08:09] <PanicFo> i used "mysqldump -u root -p --all-databases to make the dump
[08:09] <jstew> How can I make the settings permanent like they were in breezy?
[08:10] <jrib> Pandora82: nah, just 'mount' by itself, and throw in 'dmesg | tail' too after trying to view the dvd
[08:10] <imme> PanicFo, what does phpmyadmin say then?
[08:10] <kkman> when i try to connect to the server i it gets disconnected immediately!! syslog on the server says "xinetd[4858] : earning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected"

[08:12] <Alex0r> Delete the crap?
[08:12] <kkman> to the ubuntu server i want vnc to run on
[08:12] <Alex0r> Hmm. weird
[08:12] <GaiaX11> gnomefreak: Thanks very much!
[08:12] <Alex0r> I've never seen that error
[08:13] <jrib> Pandora82: hrmm mount should output /etc/mtab, what does 'cat /etc/mtab' say?
[08:13] <Spec> ltibor65: the correct answer is: "<Alex0r> Delete the crap?"
[08:13] <Pandora82> jrib nothing as well...
[08:13] <user-land> How can i see how full partitions are ?
[08:13] <Spec> user-land: df -h
[08:13] <Spec> user-land: if they're mounted
[08:14] <user-land> thanks, Spec.
[08:14] <user-land> Is there also an application showing the space folders use, recursively ?
[08:14] <Spec> user-land: you can also sit in the mount point and do crazy stuff like: du -chs *
[08:14] <Spec> user-land: yes, du -chs .
[08:14] <ltibor65> Spec, what?
[08:15] <Spec> user-land: or you can do crazier stuff like: find . |du -hc
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: to uninstall a program installed by 'make install'
[08:15] <jrib> Pandora82: that's strange.  I'm not an expert on this stuff, but what does /etc/fstab contain?  Have you rebooted recently?
[08:15] <dribble> harumph -- myspace went flash9?
[08:15] <dribble> great
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: look in the makefile, maybe there's a remove or uninstall -- but i doubt it
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: the best way is to look in the makefile, see where it installed crap, and delete said crap
[08:15] <wspinelli> j/ #ubuntu-br

[08:16] <Alex0r> Easier than pie

[08:16] <Pandora82> fstab contains: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18372
[08:16] <Spec> user-land: why would you want to delete your root directory? are you reinstalling?
[08:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[08:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about backup - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:17] <Alex0r> user-land: use the delete command under sudo
[08:17] <Spec> damn that's bad
[08:17] <user-land> Spec, i only want to delete /home which was on the root partition.
[08:17] <Spec> no backup for ubotu
[08:17] <Alex0r> what about delete /home
[08:17] <Alex0r> sudo delete /home
[08:17] <Alex0r> ?
[08:17] <Spec> rm
[08:18] <Alex0r> rm?
[08:18] <Spec> rm = delete

[08:18] <Alex0r> Oh
[08:18] <sysdoc> rm=remove
[08:18] <Alex0r> Sorry, I didn't know that command

[08:18] <Alex0r> Imma nub
[08:18] <Spec> user-land: are you running off /dev/sda1?
[08:18] <user-land> well /home is now on its own partition, i want to delete the home data on the root partition where it was earlier today.
[08:18] <jstew> Anyone else ever run into the problem of cups losing it's settings after logout?

[08:18] <Pandora82> jrib yes because I try to solve this problem for days now
[08:18] <user-land> off /dev/sda1
[08:18] <Alex0r> jstew: I think that problem is common, live with it
[08:19] <Spec> user-land: you should rm -rf /home/* and then mount /dev/sda2 /home
[08:19] <Alex0r> There could be an option to remember all the info though
[08:19] <Spec> user-land: then adjust your fstab to always mount /dev/sda2 to /home
[08:19] <Alex0r> Look around cups, I'd find it but I do not have or use it

[08:19] <Spec> imme: read UbotuUsage
[08:20] <imme> tnx
[08:20] <user-land> i did change fstab as you suggested, but i think you mentioned the solution: i should delete the old data while booting from a livecd.
[08:20] <Alex0r> I thought spec was a bot.. lol
[08:20] <kalila> gmail is slowing down my browser considerably lately
[08:20] <Pandora82> jrib yes. I also tried DVDs that worked in my device (under ... windows... *duck and cover*)

[08:21] <user-land> jonah1980, maybe try a dedicated mythtv forum or so if you don't get replies here.
[08:21] <Alex0r> i don't even have macromedia flash on ubuntu - it wont install in my firefox
[08:21] <tmccrary> 64-bit?
[08:21] <_Roconda_> wheee I got ubuntu stickers :')
[08:21] <dribble> Alex0r, install it through apt
[08:21] <Alex0r> ah, okay
[08:21] <tmccrary> _Roconda_: I just got my ubuntu discs today too :)
[08:21] <jonah1980> user-land, thanks i'll try them again but last time they gave me a speech about how newbs shouldn't even try stuff like myth which didn't really help me much
[08:21] <jstew> Alex0r: live with it? thanks, bnut no thanks.
[08:21] <jstew> s/bnut/but/
[08:21] <jrib> Pandora82: ok, right now, /mnt/dvd is empty right?
[08:22] <Alex0r> lol,
[08:22] <_Roconda_> tmccrary: I got my cds today too :)
[08:22] <Alex0r> look around for a remember option
[08:22] <_Roconda_> with the stickers
[08:22] <adamJ> i went to the flash website and i searched the internet yesterday (the Transformers Movie website uses Flash 9) and they are saying that 9.5 will be the next linux release
[08:22] <Pandora82> jrib yes sir
[08:22] <jrib> Pandora82: 'sudo mount -a', does 'mount' then return something?
[08:22] <imme> Mozilla is acting up here... :S
[08:23] <Pandora82> jrib mount: /dev/hda6 already mounted or /home busy
[08:23] <imme> anyone else same problem?
[08:23] <user-land> i am sorry, jonah1980; i was wondering about mythtv today. is it well integrated in ubuntu now ? a year ago it was easier to use a mythtv distro for it.
[08:23] <Roconda> how can I apt-get opera?, how is that package called ?
[08:23] <Alex0r> sudo apt-get install flash to install flash..?
[08:23] <jrib> Pandora82: alright, well I don't know, sorry.  I think you should look into why /etc/mtab is empty, that might have something to do with it
[08:24] <jstew> Everything looks good in /etc/cups/printers.conf. Must be a problem with gnome-cups-manager overwriting the settings on each start
[08:24] <jrib> Alex0r: flashplugin-nonfree (after enabling multiverse)
[08:24] <crimsun> Roconda: use Applications> Add/Remove App...   and choose the commercial section
[08:24] <Pandora82> jrib but before I "worked" on this it was not empty and DVDs didn't work as well
[08:24] <jonah1980> user-land, well it's suppsed to be easy but i'm stuck. i added a repository and that seemed to install everything you need, plugins etc etc and the interface comes up etc i'm just stuck with the mysql and login/password and localhost bits etc
[08:24] <Alex0r> jrib: how to I enable multiverse?
[08:24] <jrib> !multiverse > Alex0r
[08:24] <snedar> hi! can I use chroot from the livecd to restore grub? and if so, how? now it cannot find /dev/sda.
[08:25] <Alex0r> !multiverse
[08:25] <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
[08:25] <Roconda> ahh crimsun I didnt know where that option was, it was first in System -> admin
[08:25] <saiko> i don't understand the unrar (non-free) command, i'm trying to extract some rar archive, but so far no luck, any help ?
[08:25] <user-land> i see, jonah1980. hopefully someone will give you a hand here at another time. try often :-)
[08:25] <jrib> saiko: have you tried double clicking on it?
[08:25] <saiko> i doesn't work
[08:25] <jonah1980> user-land, thanks i'll keep trying
[08:26] <Kaja> saiko, man unrar
[08:26] <saiko> it opens archive manager instead and it fails
[08:26] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: unrar does work.  What are you trying to install that is not from the repositories
[08:26] <jrib> saiko: well the cli syntax is 'unrar x file.rar' iirc
[08:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi jrib
[08:26] <jrib> (but archive manager should open rar if you have it installed)
[08:27] <Alex0r> woot, dling like 400 files now
[08:27] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: hello
[08:27] <saiko> ok, i'll try it and read the manual first as well, thx everyone :)
[08:27] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[08:27] <gumpish> Why does mkfs reserve 5% of the blocks on a partition for "super user"?
[08:27] <jdier> just installed xmms skins package via synaptic...  how can I determine which directory the skins were put in?
[08:28] <jrib> jdier: dpkg -L package_name
[08:28] <user-land> jonah1980, are you going to edit the wiki entry for mythtv too ?
[08:28] <Cooner750> Does anyone know of a Jabber instant messenger server (besides Wildfire) that does not need Java to run?
[08:28] <HedgeMage> Cooner750: ejabberd
[08:28] <JDahl> gumpish: so that mailservers, logs, etc. have some space left even if a user fills up the disk
[08:28] <jonah1980> user-land, sorry what do you mean?
[08:28] <jrib> Pandora82: your best bet is to try the mailing list and/or forums
[08:28] <Cooner750> Can it be installed via apt-get?
[08:29] <Alex0r> flashplugin-nonfree is flash version 7
[08:29] <Alex0r> :/
[08:29] <Pandora82> jrib already done (two german forums... we're working on it)
[08:29] <HedgeMage> Cooner750: but it's in erlang.
[08:29] <gumpish> I see - I assume that not all filesystems support the concept of reserving blocks for admin users...
[08:29] <Spec> Alex0r: you thought i was a bot? :-/
[08:29] <Alex0r> lol, yeah
[08:30] <Alex0r> coz of your name
[08:30] <JDahl> gumpish: actually that's what it does...
[08:30] <sysdoc> lol
[08:30] <Alex0r> :@
[08:30] <Alex0r> flash still wont install
[08:30] <gumpish> right - but that's unique to ext2/3?
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: how busy are you?  I have a program I want to test.  RealBasic 2006 3 meg file.  Nothing more than a list box and a pic box to test portability of code..
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Alexblame flash.. not ubuntu
[08:31] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: I'm actually about to step out, but /msg me and I'll take a look later
[08:31] <ChadWick> how do change the permission for the /usr folder? it wont let me?
[08:31] <JDahl> gumpish: I don't know, but I would guess that it's not that special a feature
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> where can I send it..?
[08:31] <Alex0r> Yar,
[08:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo Ho
[08:32] <Alex0r> Yarrrrrr matey
[08:32] <jdier> jrib, thank you.  When going back to synaptic to verify the exact name of the package I also saw that under properties I could see everywhere synaptic had put files.
[08:32] <ChadWick> CAN someone please help me?
[08:33] <rio_> Hey
[08:33] <imme> 990 kb/s is that about T1 ?
[08:33] <rio_> howw do I view my cpu temperature
[08:33] <saiko> sorry, what's the command to remove directory which isn't empty - rmdir .. ?
[08:33] <jdier> jrib - thanks for the command line instructions though!  I am a newbie, but trying hard to learn more and more about command line.  Very much appreciate the help.
[08:33] <Alex0r> flashplugin-nonfree wont setup
[08:33] <JDahl> saiko: rm -rf dir

[08:33] <Alex0r> :@
[08:34] <Pandora82> why do I always have the hard-to-solve problems
[08:34] <saiko> JDahl: thank you
[08:34] <imme> ChadWick, what error does it give you? Or does it say nothing?
[08:34] <narfmaster> ChadWick, do not change your permissions on the /usr folder
[08:34] <ChadWick> i want to change the permission of the /usr folder so i can place files in there
[08:34] <ChadWick> ok
[08:34] <narfmaster> ChadWick, no - bad idea
[08:34] <ChadWick> how gdo you install program into there then?
[08:34] <ChadWick> like firefox i want to upgrade it
[08:35] <Alex0r> I'm about to format my PC again
[08:35] <narfmaster> ChadWick, you use something like Synaptic

[08:36] <zoidberg> can two people, both who are ssh enabled send text messages to each other using just the terminal
[08:36] <gumpish> JDahl: how do "reserved block" prevent file fragmentation?
[08:36] <zoidberg> without any other application
[08:36] <Alex0r> zoidberg: no. don't think so.
[08:36] <jonah1980> tried to reset my database but i get this error: http://pastebin.ca/92614

[08:37] <ballpointcarrot> Pandora82: any reason why DVD won't play?
[08:37] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: it has to be onthe same system
[08:37] <zoidberg> what do u mena?
[08:37] <JDahl> gumpish: I don't know... Does the man page claim that?
[08:37] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: otherwise it requires a somewhat complex network and system setup
[08:37] <gumpish> yep
[08:38] <zoidberg> we are on the same network
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: you both have to  be logged into the same machine
[08:38] <Alex0r> YAY FLASH WORKS
[08:38] <Alex0r> YAYAYAYYA
[08:38] <zoidberg> oh we cant be on different machines but the same wLAN?
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Pandora82: what program are you using to open / play the DVD?
[08:38] <gumpish> just curious. I've lowered the percentage to 1%, which I'm happy with.
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: you can try i know it works at my college on the solaris machines
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> but they may have some more stuff setup
[08:38] <zoidberg> okay
[08:38] <zoidberg> thanx
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: i know it works w\o any setup on the same machine
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> its not very pretty though
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> i suggest pork
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> or irc
[08:39] <Alex0r> uh, my flASH is really buggy
[08:39] <Alex0r> sound cuts out
[08:39] <Alex0r> and parts of the thing cut off

[08:56] <Draconicus> Heya... could I get the names of some of the programs and drivers associated with Ubuntu's ability to automatically detect and connect to a digital camera that's PictBridge capable?
[08:56] <Pandora82> many error messages
[08:56] <wogi> Rowrg! Greeting, ubuntuians.
[08:56] <Seveas> Draconicus, gphoto perhaps?
[08:56] <sybec> ubuntuians?
[08:57] <Draconicus> Seveas: Ah. I think that's it. Thanks. :)
[08:57] <wogi> I have a little problem. I like to stare at my clock at work...Unfortunately, I somehow broke it: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
[08:57] <wogi> I thin it had something to do with installing evolution.
[08:57] <matthias> wo bin ich?
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Draconicus: try digikam see if it will not find your camera
[08:57] <wogi> Does anyone have any ideas on how I might be able to fix this?
[08:57] <Seveas> matthias, in #ubuntu 
[08:57] <bsilverstrim> Is there an easy way to roll mysql down to version 4?
[08:58] <Enverex> Where in OpenOffice can you set the dictionary used?
[08:59] <sybec> wogi: Gimme a second.
[08:59] <gr33npho3nix> Pandora82: mplayer?
[08:59] <wogi> sybec: but of course :)
[08:59] <johan_> ./configure: line 22645: AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG: command not found
[08:59] <johan_> ./configure: line 22646: syntax error near unexpected token `2.6.0,'
[08:59] <johan_> ./configure: line 22646: `AM_PATH_WXCONFIG(2.6.0, wxWin=1)'
[08:59] <johan_> why?
[08:59] <johan_> I have libwxgtk
[08:59] <MegaManX> wow, Xubuntu is great. I can't believe how much faster my system is :D
[09:00] <prodigy> problem's with my kernel upgrade ubuntu recently installed
[09:00] <prodigy> how do i rollback
[09:00] <skavenge> so theres no way to do a barebones install with the desktop cd right, you have to have the server iso or alternate?
[09:00] <Pandora82> sharms maybe take a look at this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18375
[09:01] <Pandora82> gr33n it doesn't work with any player - the players don't seem to be the problem I guess
[09:01] <iqon> is there a way to mount a directory to a second location and treat all file names as lower case only?
[09:01] <gumpish> how come set doesn't have a man page >:o
[09:02] <narfmaster> gumpish, help set
[09:02] <Pandora82> that's what VLC says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18376
[09:02] <gumpish> oh, it's a builtin?
[09:02] <MegaManX> Can anybody recommend me another utility for webcam besides camstream?
[09:02] <sharms> Pandora82: it looks like it doesn't have permissions, run it using sudo and see what happens
[09:02] <sybec> wogi: Well .. yup .. it does seem to be because of evolution, no ideas though. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=65014
[09:03] <GaiaX11> Enverex: tools - options - language settings - languages is the place where to config dictionary
[09:03] <Enverex> Its ok, I found it, thanks anyway GaiaX11
[09:03] <Pandora82> sharms same error with no permissions, missing input-plugin
[09:03] <sybec> So like .. why was Gnome picked as the default DE for Ubuntu rather than Gnome ?
[09:04] <eXistenZ> How can I revert a program to its previous version?
[09:04] <eXistenZ> I installed the package of vim7, and things are ***** ** now =/

[09:05] <gumpish> could someone please tell me the output of: echo $MANPATH
[09:05] <Pandora82> dmesg | grep hd - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18377
[09:05] <Enverex> Is anyone here on the UK translation list?
[09:05] <wogi> sybec: yeah, I saw a few posts like that but with no solution. I removed evolution, but I remember getting it instaleld was kind of a pain and I might have added some other libraries or something.
[09:05] <kaur> simple questio: when i tell synaptic to only download not install, where does it download?
[09:05] <sybec> gumpish: $NULL
[09:05] <Jack_Sparrow> nosotros: what ati card do you have?
[09:06] <Ninja> Whats a realy good program to burn and Convert  music ???
[09:06] <sybec> wogi: Synaptic keeps a "history"
[09:06] <Enverex> neuro_, Riddell, mez, yama: Any of you alive?

[09:06] <sybec> If you're using Synaptic that is.
[09:06] <kaur> ok thanks
[09:06] <Orbit45244> Can someone please help me figure this out: After having my previous problem, I tried booting up 6.06 on other computers. On other computers I don't get the "PCI:" error, but after I get several boot up messages that come back "ok", a black screen comes up that says "Extracting Linux.... Ok, booting up kernel" and then boot up just stops there. I think this is a problem with 6.06. Can someone help me?

[09:07] <flip> hey guys -- quick newbie question... installed 5.04 (only cd that i had) and im upgrading immediately post install to dapper
[09:07] <sharms> Pandora82: it looks to me like your dvd rom driver is broken or has a problem with it
[09:07] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow, oki thanks
[09:07] <flip> and its hanging on laptop-mode-tools
[09:08] <avalean> *downloading*
[09:08] <Orbit45244> so set the usb to 1.1 through bios?
[09:08] <avalean> screw windows!

[09:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Orbit45244:  yes...
[09:08] <Pandora82> sharms driver sounds interesting! but since I'm a newbie: how do I get the right driver for my DVD-player?
[09:08] <Orbit45244> k thanks
[09:08] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, 4.1
[09:09] <sybec> Gnome or KDE ?
[09:09] <bsilverstrim> It says I currently have 5.0 on it.  How do I downgrade to 4.1?
[09:09] <sharms> Pandora82: well if the dvd drive is 100% working it may just be you need to turn DMA on or off, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[09:09] <johan_> what do I do in a shell script if I 1. want to stop the script if a command fails and 2. want silent output?
[09:09] <neuro_> Enverex: tis done; enjoy :)
[09:10] <Pandora82> sharms I think DMA is on - at least automatixx said that
[09:10] <Jack_Sparrow> johan_: ctrl-c
[09:10] <sybec> 1. exit ; 2. ./script.sh 1>/dev/null 2>&1
[09:10] <AOGuy1989> question why can;t i not msake a dvd play in ubuntu i ahve a dvd player drive
[09:10] <fyrestrtr> johan_: command1 && command2 (command2 only runs if command1 executes successfully) command1 && command2 &1>&2 > /dev/null
[09:10] <sharms> Pandora82: you might want to turn it off then, maybe your drive doesn't support it
[09:10] <ttyfscker> does anybody in here know of a tool for ubuntu that will take a v4l2 video device and create a loop device that is v4l1 compatabile?
[09:10] <sharms> !tell AOGuy1989 about dvd
[09:10] <Enverex> neuro_, thanks

[09:10] <sybec> johan_: ALso, look up Advanced Bash Scripting Guide. [google it] 
[09:10] <Pandora82> sharms I'll try
[09:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Pandora82: Scripts like automatix make some things easy and really mess up others.  It is best to learn how to do it yourself
[09:10] <gnomefreak> its int he repos sybec
[09:11] <AOGuy1989> thanks and the other question is a little harder
[09:11] <fyrestrtr> Minty: sudo apt-get install gnome-bluetooth

[09:11] <gnomefreak> s/int he/in the

[09:12] <nosotros> may anyone help me?, i installed ati drivers but when i do glxinfo i get "direct rendering: no"
[09:12] <gnomefreak> AOGuy1989: you mean like when you boot have it run sudo apt-get update?
[09:12] <ttyfscker> gnomefreak:: i thought you said edgy wouldnt boot the kernel?
[09:12] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow, well K3B wont start..ill click on it and it wont even initiize
[09:12] <bsilverstrim> sudo apt-get install mysqld4.1
[09:12] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: ythe patch was released
[09:12] <bsilverstrim>  sudo apt-get install mysql_server4.1
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> nosotros: make sure your driver is fglrx not ati
[09:12] <flip> should i just wait a couple days until the package is maybe repaired and do a update and then another -f install ?
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja:  how did you install it and what linux are you using
[09:12] <tmccrary> compiling xorg from source... its an all day affair
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> I ma running 6.06 here and K3b
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> am
[09:12] <AOGuy1989> no no something like sudo hidd --connect 00:07:61:49:1b:f8  i need it ot run that
[09:13] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow, i used Synaptec package manageer..and im using Ubuntu ofcourse..and 6.06
[09:13] <ttyfscker> gnomefreak:: is the next release going to be named "edgy" or is "edgy" the name for sid in ubuntu?
[09:13] <AOGuy1989> i need it to run that at start up
[09:13] <Jack_Sparrow> I know you say Ubuntu of course, but you would be amazed at how many people come here for help with other distros
[09:13] <flip> ttyfscker: sid = dapper
[09:13] <ballpointcarrot> Ninja: run it through a terminal, see if any errors pop up.
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> ttyfscker: #ubuntu+1
[09:13] <bsilverstrim> sudo apt-get install mysql_server-4.1 is doing something.
[09:13] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: edgy is the code name it will be called 6.10
[09:14] <zukalk> guys, i'm trying to install gaim-2.0.0beta3, but its ./configure scripts requires XML::Parser, and sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser' returns an error. any suggestions?
[09:14] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: and please join us #ubuntu+1 for this
[09:14] <sybec> Wait .. so this ISN'T the place for Slackware issues ?
[09:14] <eternalswd> I'm trying to compile php5 from source and I want mysqli, but I can't find mysql_config even though I have mysql5 installed from the repositories.  How do I remedy this?
[09:14] <ttyfscker> ok i will
[09:14] <Ninja> ballpointcarrot, i dont even wanna bother with that..
[09:14] <Enverex> neuro_, One question though, on one of them it's got "_: NAME OF TRANSLATORS" so I assume that isn't translated but you actually put your name in there instead... right?
[09:14] <sybec> Eh .. compiling from source on a binary distribution .. that just sounds wrong to me
[09:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: go to term and try gksudo k3b           for me...
[09:14] <gr33npho3nix> flip: not quite
[09:15] <ttyfscker> lol
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> the name sid stays w\ debians current expiriremental
[09:15] <ttyfscker> dapper isnt sid.. dapper has been released..
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> where as dapper follows 6.06 sid doesn't follow a version number
[09:15] <Pandora82> how can I switch DMA off?
[09:15] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: i was just wondering what the sid equivalent was in ubuntu
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> it moves from latest versiosion to latest version
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> ttyfscker: i don't think they have one
[09:16] <fyrestrtr> eternalswd: sudo apt-get install php5-mysqli
[09:16] <ttyfscker> so edgy is expected for release in october?
[09:16] <eXistenZ> Can anyone help me please?
[09:16] <zukalk> Pandora82: : http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA tells you all you need to know
[09:16] <Jack_Sparrow> I dont want to drop anyone in the middle of help but I will need to run when my contractor comes to the door..
[09:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: what did you get with that command
[09:17] <user-land> is there a way to query the temperature of the CPU ? sensors-applet is displaying it but it always stays at 40C which i don't believe.
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: debian testing follows 3.2
[09:17] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, sup?
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: but testing and sid are two different things...
[09:17] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, hey, I'm great :)
[09:17] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, How about you?
[09:17] <gr33npho3nix> ttyfscker: right, it goes experimental, testing, stable
[09:17] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, so so
[09:17] <gr33npho3nix> (testing is also know as unstable)
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: i should have restated that..  3.2 follows testing for now
[09:18] <Pandora82> sorry I'm not a native speaker and on this page I only see how to switch on dma... or am I blind?
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, Do you know how can I revert some package to its previous version?
[09:18] <ttyfscker> in debian testing is known as testing and unstable is known as sid..
[09:18] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, you need to find the deb file for the version you want to downgrade to
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I think it is still there
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I mean, I installed a new version of vim7, and now things are bad =/
[09:19] <ballpointcarrot> ttyfscker: technically, testing is known as etch, and unstable is known as sid.
[09:19] <ttyfscker> currently testing = etch, and unstable = sid (unstable is always sid)
[09:19] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, dpkg -i packagename
[09:20] <zukalk> Pandora82: you're not blind. why exactly do you want to turn DMA off? and are you sure it is on?
[09:20] <GaiaX11> i
[09:20] <bagpuss_thecat> is it possible to get Ubiquity to install onto a software raid /dev/md0 device?
[09:20] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, i'm using vim 6.4.6
[09:20] <bagpuss_thecat> it just seems merrily oblivious to any software raid
[09:21] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I'm trying to downgrade to vim6.4.6
[09:21] <kdingo> i resized my root partition and now it doesn't seem to recognize the extra space
[09:21] <Enverex> Has anyone here done any of the translation work before on Launchpad?
[09:21] <live> Hespeak spanish ?
[09:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !es
[09:21] <Pandora82> zulak it is on (sure) and I have terrible problems with my DVD-player (I can't watch DVDs)
[09:21] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:21] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, you should have no trouble finding that version in the Ubuntu repos
[09:21] <mwe> kdingo: maybe you didn't resize the file system as well
[09:21] <eternalswd> fyrestrtr: that didn't install any mysql_config
[09:21] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, yes, but how can I force its installation
[09:22] <kdingo> mwe, i don't understand
[09:22] <zukalk> Pandora82: have you tried with different DVD players?
[09:22] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, try doing this: sudo apt-get install vim
[09:22] <mwe> kdingo: you need to tell the file system about the extra space
[09:22] <Pandora82> zulakl yes, the problem is not the player - the device cannot read any DVD
[09:22] <Pandora82> sorry zukalk
[09:22] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all
[09:22] <kdingo> mwe: how would i do that?
[09:22] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, sudo apt-get remove vim <-- do this first :p
[09:23] <bagpuss_thecat> Ubiquity is very sadly inadequate for a so-called production release
[09:23] <lz1gjd> could anyone tell me what option i should pass to dpkg to install a package without satisfying its dependencies ?
[09:23] <zukalk> Pandora82: what is the name of the device itself? your dvd drive, i mean. /dev/hdc?
[09:23] <NickVolt> anyone in here running postfix on dapper drake?
[09:23] <Pandora82> zukalk so I now think it's more like a problem with the driver. yes /dev/hdc
[09:23] <mwe> kdingo: sudo tune2f -j /dev/whatever I think
[09:24] <mwe> kdingo: tune2fs that is
[09:24] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all??
[09:24] <narfmaster> lz1gjd, --force-depends
[09:24] <lz1gjd> narfmaster: thx
[09:24] <Morrowyn> nicenice, that xgl and compix absolutely looks gorgeous
[09:24] <Pandora82> seems like this A0Guy has the same problem...
[09:25] <AOGuy1989> what di u mean
[09:25] <zukalk> Pandora82: you can turn DMA off for /dev/hdc by entering in a console the following command: sudo hdparm -d0 /dev/hdc
[09:25] <Pandora82> ok thx
[09:25] <mwe> kdingo: um it is resize2fs. sorry
[09:25] <skavenge> so theres no way to do a barebones install with the desktop cd right, you have to have the server iso or alternate?
[09:26] <AOGuy1989> does anyone know whyit won't play?
[09:26] <Minty> fyrestrtr: bluetooth worked, many thanks :)
[09:26] <kdingo> mwe: ah ok i was just about to say it said there was already a journal
[09:26] <zukalk> Pandora82: if this does solve the problem, maybe you'd like to permanently turn DMA off. but make sure it solves it first
[09:26] <ajayc> tell me a small video player that can play wmv files
[09:26] <Pandora82> zukalk the problem is still there it seems
[09:26] <mwe> kdingo: you need sth like sudo resize2fs /dev/whatever <size>
[09:27] <jonah1980> i read in the howto that dapper permission probs can be solved with this, but i just get errors: http://extraball.sunsite.dk/notepad.php?ID=19197
[09:27] <MenZa`laptop> Is XFCE much smaller than Gnome?

[09:27] <zukalk> Pandora82: so apparently this isn't a DMA problem. you can turn it back on, if you wish, by doing " -d1 " instead of " -d0 "
[09:27] <ajayc> tell me a small video player that can play wmv files
[09:27] <kdingo> mwe: ok thanks, i will try that now
[09:27] <mwe> kdingo: is it the root partition?
[09:28] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all?? anoyne know why?

[09:31] <twopeak> what's a good app to make mp3s from a CD (with GUI)?
[09:31] <korean_girl> where is the source code for ubuntu's kernel?
[09:31] <bsilverstrim> mwe: that installs 5.
[09:31] <bsilverstrim> I'm trying to get 4.x installed.

[09:31] <Pandora82> couldn't it be a problem with the hardware? driver?
[09:31] <Pandora82> zukalk yes
[09:31] <korean_girl> where is the source code for ubuntu's kernel?
[09:32] <Orbit45244> well, I know I have usb 2.0, but all I found in my BIOS was something about USB Legacy Mode, so I changed that, but it didn't help
[09:32] <zukalk> Pandora82: yes, it could
[09:32] <bsilverstrim> narf: the cut-and-paste was the result of that.
[09:32] <twopeak> frague, my ipod can't read that
[09:32] <ballpointcarrot> Pandora82: it sounds like a hardware problem, from your dmesg|grep hd pastebin.
[09:32] <frague> argh...
[09:32] <mwe> bsilverstrim: 5?
[09:32] <narfmaster> korean_girl, it's in "linux-source-2.6.15"
[09:32] <Pandora82> so how can I get the right driver... - for newbies ;-)
[09:32] <mwe> bsilverstrim: oh yes. sorry
[09:32] <zukalk> Pandora82: can you use the dvd drive for other things? CD-ROMs, Audio CDs, Data DVDs?
[09:33] <bsilverstrim> It tried to do the 4.1, but then it errored when unpacking the .deb.
[09:33] <Pandora82> zukalk yes, CDs (data, audio) works fine - I have no data DVDs to try this
[09:33] <mwe> bsilverstrim: but can you try again then paste the error on paste.ubuntu-nl.org ?
[09:33] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, try removing mysql-server first
[09:33] <zukalk> Pandora82: then it doesn't appear to be a driver problem
[09:33] <korean_girl> narfmaster, but what is the url?

[09:35] <mwe> MrFeetio: the packages usually comes with a file called README and INSTALL. read those
[09:35] <chucky> whats a decent package for playing dvd avi and mpeg files?
[09:35] <chucky> video lan?
[09:35] <zukalk> Pandora82: it's weird, i know
[09:35] <vvheritagevv> \leave
[09:35] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: network working?
[09:35] <chucky> yup
[09:35] <gr33npho3nix> beautiful
[09:35] <mwe> MrFeetio: usually unpack, ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall
[09:35] <chucky> it was a router dns issue
[09:35] <Strat72> installtion issue, anyone will to help ?
[09:35] <Pandora82> zukalk I alway have weird problems...(because the easy ones I try to solve on my own)
[09:35] <sharms> Pandora82: I believe it is a hardware issue that your dvd drive is broken.
[09:35] <ballpointcarrot> Pandora82: I'm surprised that you're even getting cd's to play
[09:35] <Pandora82> but it worked under windows...
[09:35] <mwe> MrFeetio: get build-essential if you don't have it though or you can't compile anything
[09:36] <admin_> Can anyone guide me on installing flash in Firefox? The terminal cant find the file
[09:36] <MrFeetio> mve: thx
[09:36] <mwe> !flash > admin_
[09:36] <obisel> hi all
[09:36] <zukalk> Pandora82: if it works under windows, there should be a way out. what kind of dvd drive is it? can it burn DVD-R and RW? DVD-RAM?
[09:36] <mwe> admin_: read /msg from ubotu
[09:37] <Rikkimaru_> How can I figure out what integrated graphics card I have?
[09:37] <Pandora82> zukalk it's a DVD-R/RW-device
[09:37] <mwe> Rikkimaru_: lspci
[09:37] <korean_girl> Rikkimaru_ lspci
[09:37] <admin_> I forgot my root password
[09:37] <mwe> Rikkimaru_: or lspci -v
[09:37] <gr33npho3nix> Pandora82: worked or works? how long ago was it that you tested it
[09:37] <mwe> admin_: there is none by default
[09:38] <Rikkimaru_> alright, I found it.  How do I figure out what drivers to use for Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GM L Express Graphics Controller?
[09:38] <Shinzetsu> It still asks for one when I try to su
[09:38] <Pandora82> gr33n well a few months but I don't think that hardware breaks from nothing - and it works well with CDs
[09:38] <sharms> zukalk: Pandor has several read errors in dmesg also, I think the drive is bad
[09:38] <mwe> Shinzetsu: yes
[09:38] <_binks_> how can i log in as root to delete some iles owned by root
[09:38] <_binks_> files
[09:38] <mwe> Shinzetsu: but there is none. use sudo instead
[09:38] <narfmaster> Shinzetsu, your installation user password is what you need (and use sudo)
[09:38] <gr33npho3nix> Pandora82: oh ok
[09:38] <bsilverstrim> I still get an error unpacking that deb file.
[09:38] <korean_girl> is ubuntu's kernel just vanilla-sources with ubuntu patches?
[09:38] <mwe> Shinzetsu: sudo -i and your user password to get a root prompt
[09:38] <WooD> what is the best software to burn iso ?
[09:38] <richard_> which is better Koffice or openoffice?
[09:39] <Shinzetsu> thanks
[09:39] <zukalk> sharms: dmesg? i see. then Pandora82 should definitely try to play a DVD or two under windows
[09:39] <korean_girl> richard_ openoffice
[09:39] <Rikkimaru_> Where can i figure out what drivers to get for Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GM L Express Graphics Controller?
[09:39] <Pandora82> and what makes me thinking: I never tried to watch DVDs under Ubuntu...
[09:39] <mwe> richard_: openoffice is more mature imho
[09:39] <twopeak> richard_ it's a matter of personal choice, though openoffice seems to be adopted more and more
[09:39] <Pandora82> zukalk but how
[09:39] <korean_girl> is ubuntu's kernel just vanilla-sources with ubuntu patches?
[09:40] <zukalk> Pandora82: can't you boot into windows now?
[09:40] <Pandora82> zukalk no windows on the machine
[09:40] <narfmaster> korean_girl, there's Debian stuff there too :)
[09:40] <_binks_> korean-girl its heavily modded
[09:40] <mwe> korean_girl: yeah. quite a few patches though
[09:40] <zukalk> Pandora82: oh, ok. that makes things more complicated
[09:40] <richard_> does koffice have web queries - more like excel?
[09:40] <skiffy> hi guys, anyone here use httrack ?
[09:41] <Pandora82> yeah, that makes things more... ubuntu-like ;-)
[09:41] <chucky> any idea on getting codec packages
[09:41] <korean_girl> mwe, okay, do you know of a repository where I can find the ubuntu and debian patches along with the vanilla source code?
[09:41] <Rikkimaru_> What driver should I get for Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GM L Express Graphics Controller?
[09:41] <krism> Rikkimaru_: i810
[09:41] <chucky> i can play an avi in video lan but even tho it says its playing i get no video or sound
[09:42] <Rikkimaru_> krism: gracias
[09:42] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: try this, http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[09:42] <narfmaster> korean_girl, the patches should be in the source repos along with the kernel itself
[09:42] <chucky> yet i get both when i play ogg files in the default movie play
[09:42] <zukalk> Pandora82: hm... isn't there any way to test your drive on another OS which can play dvds?
[09:42] <gr33npho3nix> or ubuntuguide.org gives nice descriptions of how to get everything up with all the codecs
[09:42] <MenZa`laptop> is openbox in the repos?
[09:42] <korean_girl> narfmaster, yeah...the repos is a little tricky to use o.o
[09:42] <Rikkimaru_> krism: apparently, I already have that, how do I configure it for the correct resolutions/colors?
[09:42] <korean_girl> narfmaster it has really weird links and such
[09:43] <gr33npho3nix> Rikkimaru_: i810 is the intel xorg driver
[09:43] <mwe> korean_girl: I think the linux-source packages has them inside
[09:43] <narfmaster> korean_girl, it probably works better with apt-get
[09:43] <krism> Rikkimaru_: on a laptop?
[09:43] <MenZa`laptop> chucky: easyubuntu, at least the latest stable, has a bug in it. It probably won't get you all the packages (I got a 404 error)
[09:43] <albacker> !restrictedFormats

[09:43] <Rikkimaru_> krism: yes
[09:43] <Pandora82> zukalk I don't see one. It's a laptop - so I think the drive is not so easily removeable
[09:43] <gr33npho3nix> Pandora82: if you have another windows box you can build UBCD 4 windows
[09:43] <Shinzetsu> How do I open *.PL files?
[09:43] <korean_girl> narfmaster, I dont use ubuntu, I use Gentoo, but I need ubuntu's kernel source
[09:43] <albacker> how can i get .avi to work with totem?
[09:43] <gr33npho3nix> and its windows live cd you can boot to test it
[09:43] <krism> !915resolution
[09:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about 915resolution - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:43] <zukalk> Pandora82: ah, hell. how old is your laptop?
[09:43] <albacker> it seems i dont have w32codecs in my repos.
[09:44] <albacker> i added multiverse and universe too.
[09:44] <krism> Rikkimaru_: see the package "915resolution", and check out http://wiki.ubuntu.com/ about it.
[09:44] <MenZa`laptop> hi sskroeder
[09:44] <Pandora82> about 1,5 to 2 years zukalk
[09:44] <narfmaster> korean_girl, wow i've never heard of anyone doing that
[09:44] <mwe> korean_girl: then get the linux-image-whatever package
[09:44] <MenZa`laptop> great, openbox IS in the repos :D!
[09:44] <IrIT> Anyone here using 915resolution?
[09:44] <sskroeder> Hi MenZa`laptop
[09:44] <skiffy> anyone know if its possible to use an offline browser like httrack, then convert to copied website into .txt or something similar to import it into a database ?
[09:44] <velcroSHOOZE> albacker: its not in the repos, theres a wget command on wiki.ubuntu.com/restrictedformats for it
[09:44] <krism> IrIT: have used it in the past.
[09:44] <mwe> korean_girl: use ar to unpack it I think
[09:45] <albacker> velcroSHOOZE, hnx
[09:45] <MenZa`laptop> gdm is my window manager, right?
[09:45] <Shinzetsu> gdm is GNOME Desktop Enviorment
[09:45] <IrIT> Just installed Ubuntu on my lap yesterday. I've a intel graphic card, and I could only get 1024x800
[09:45] <korean_girl> mwe, nah, I'll just use portage XD
[09:45] <mwe> velcroSHOOZE: I believe w32codecs is in multiverse, no?
[09:45] <Shinzetsu> Desktop Manager* excuse me
[09:45] <zukalk> Pandora82: have you ever noticed any playback issues while using your laptop? if you listen to an album, does it ever get 'scratchy' or does it skip a few bits?
[09:45] <krism> MenZa`laptop: and Shinzetsu gdm is gnomes login manager. your default window manager is 'metacity'
[09:45] <MenZa`laptop> Shinzetsu: right. What is the Window Managerr called?? I'm trying to run Openbox instead of the default.
[09:45] <korean_girl> mwe, thanks though
[09:45] <IrIT> Then I used 915resoltion, and I got 1280x1024. Allthough after a reboot, i cant get it to work no more
[09:45] <Pandora82> zukalk I don't think so
[09:46] <MenZa`laptop> krism: right, thaniks.
[09:46] <korean_girl> mwe, I basically just found the url I needed
[09:46] <MenZa`laptop> thanks*
[09:46] <velcroSHOOZE> mwe: not last i heard, according to the wiki its on an alternate repo and uses a wget command to grab the deb, thats how i got it
[09:46] <mwe> korean_girl: good then
[09:46] <bsilverstrim> What does it mean when apt-get ends with E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[09:46] <krism> IrIT: did you config /etc/defaults/915resolution?
[09:46] <theBishop> can Rhythmbox connect to iTunes shares?
[09:46] <mwe> velcroSHOOZE: hmm
[09:46] <IrIT> yeah
[09:46] <MenZa`laptop> krism: so... killall metacity and then openbox & ?
[09:46] <velcroSHOOZE> !info w32codecs
[09:46] <ubotu> Package w32codecs does not exist in dapper
[09:46] <krism> IrIT: then run /etc/init.d/915resolution and restart gdm
[09:46] <gr33npho3nix> krism: openbox --replace &
[09:46] <mlehrer_> google for: w32codecs ubuntu
[09:46] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, it means you have a script giving you an error somewhere
[09:46] <ballpointcarrot> bsilverstream: it means apt didn't finish what it was doing because something went wrong
[09:46] <mlehrer_> you should find something useful
[09:46] <gr33npho3nix> it will kill metacity for you
[09:46] <mwe> velcroSHOOZE: I'm sure I used apt-get install w32codecs. it's probably not an official mirror. let me check
[09:47] <IrIT> krism, tried so many times
[09:47] <MenZa`laptop> gr33npho3nix: thanks.
[09:47] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: how can I find out what it thinks went wrong?
[09:47] <krism> gr33npho3nix: to MenZa`laptop, not me.
[09:47] <IrIT> besides, it's runned at startuyp
[09:47] <gr33npho3nix> oh sorry
[09:47] <IrIT> startup
[09:47] <gr33npho3nix> no problem
[09:47] <daxxar> I'm having some problems installing Ubuntu. I'm booting the netboot install using PXE, and it boots just fine. It detects all kinds of network settings, I set up information about users, partitions, language, etc. Then it starts downloading and preparing / unpacking packages, and at some point during this, my monitor goes black with three white 'squares' on it. The computer seems to continue working, but the monitor stays that way. Picture of the screen: ...
[09:47] <ballpointcarrot> bsilverstream: what are you trying to install?
[09:47] <krism> IrIT: how did you try? can you pastebin your /etc/default/915resolution?
[09:47] <daxxar> ... http://daxxar.slask.no/monitor-problem.jpg
[09:47] <daxxar> Anyone familiar with the problem, or have suggestions?
[09:47] <velcroSHOOZE> mwe: its not an official mirror, last time i remember getting it out of repos was in breezy days
[09:47] <WooD> I want to burn an Ubuntu CD Iso file to a CD with K3B but it does not burn. It always give's me an error and have to flush the cd in the Garbage .. any know a little smart software to burn ISO File  ?
[09:47] <IrIT> krism, 2 sec
[09:47] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: sudo apt-get install mysql-server-4.1
[09:47] <Shinzetsu> I cant access my Desktop as root
[09:47] <mwe> velcroSHOOZE: maybe so
[09:47] <krism> Shinzetsu: did you enable the root account?
[09:47] <zukalk> Pandora82: i don't really know how else i can help you. are you really-really sure you have every codec and gstreamer packages installed and so on? where did you find those dmesg errors that sharms was talking about?
[09:48] <ballpointcarrot> bsilverstream: did you have mysql 5 already on there?
[09:48] <bla|patrick> WooD: first use a rewritable disc
[09:48] <mwe> velcroSHOOZE: it's cipherfunk.org
[09:48] <narfmaster> WooD, you could try Nautilus CD burner
[09:48] <adamlinuxobjecti> how do i mount a usb device?
[09:48] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: I did, I finally got the client and common uninstalled as well as server.
[09:48] <bsilverstrim> should all be cleaned out.
[09:48] <krism> Pandora82: did you install the gstreamer-0.10 packages or the gstreamer-0.08 packages? you need .10 version for dapper default install
[09:48] <IrIT> krism, http://pastebin.ca/92619
[09:48] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: it apparently has some of 4.1 on instead now.  Just not getting server.
[09:49] <ballpointcarrot> bsilverstream: all right, lemme take a look at some things.
[09:49] <theBishop> can Rhythmbox connect to iTunes shares?
[09:49] <Pandora82> krism 0.10
[09:49] <mwe> bsilverstrim: could you paste the error you get on paste.ubuntu-nl.org?
[09:49] <_binks_> how can i remove a folder that has root priviledge
[09:49] <krism> IrIT: what does /etc/init.d/915resolution say when you run it? (as root)
[09:49] <Pandora82> zukalk in the shell
[09:49] <WooD> narfmaster: thanks
[09:50] <theBishop> _binks_, sudo rm -R foldername
[09:50] <mwe> _binks_: which one?
[09:50] <_binks_> its mono in /opt
[09:50] <ballpointcarrot> bsilverstream: are you installing thru synaptic or thru CLI?
[09:50] <mwe> _binks_: sudo rm -rf /opt/mono
[09:50] <AOGuy1989> can u make ubuntu play m4a files
[09:50] <IrIT> krism, http://pastebin.ca/92621 The weird thing is that it has worked before reboot
[09:50] <AOGuy1989> ??
[09:50] <_binks_> cheers ill give it ago
[09:50] <skiffy> anyone know if its possible to use an offline browser like httrack, then convert to copied website into .txt or something similar to import it into a database ?
[09:50] <angelika> hi at all
[09:50] <zukalk> Pandora82: if there were indeed read errors, then maybe there is a problem with the drive. but i don't know how you can do a better diagnosis
[09:51] <krism> IrIT: looks good. now run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[09:51] <krism> IrIT: and i'm assuming you're configured X for 1280x1024
[09:51] <IrIT> krism, yeah.
[09:51] <Rarj> what window managers are installed by default in Ubuntu Dapper ?
[09:51] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: CLI
[09:51] <mwe> _binks_: careful though. sudo rm -rf / opt/mono will hose the system
[09:51] <IrIT> As I said, it has worked before
[09:51] <IrIT> Be right back then
[09:51] <Pandora82> *sighs* sometimes I think it would be better to go back to windows
[09:51] <bsilverstrim> ballpoint: there is a line in there about aborting a downgrade from "at least" 5 to 4.1...nuts.
[09:51] <_binks_> why what will it do
[09:51] <AOGuy1989> and can u amke the res larger than 1024x786
[09:51] <bsilverstrim> How can I nuke all of 5.0??
[09:51] <zukalk> Pandora82: oh, don't think that way ;)
[09:51] <ompaul> Rarj, default Ubuntu is gnome, Kubuntu is KDE, Xubuntu is xfce, server is no wm
[09:51] <AOGuy1989> YAY DUALboot
[09:52] <mwe> bsilverstrim: could you paste the error you get on paste.ubuntu-nl.org?
[09:52] <troozers> anyone know how to set a windows transparency using xgl under dapper?
[09:52] <Rarj> ompaul, ok maybe i said it wrong :)
[09:52] <knapper_> Hi: I am getting the following error when trying to copy a dvd using k9copy: "An error occurred while running DVDAuthor: STAT: VOBU 0 at 0MB, 1 PGCS"
[09:52] <Pandora82> zukalk is the a way to somehow reset the laptop without loosing my personal files like pictures and stuff?
[09:52] <MenZa`laptop> ompaul: and edu :)?
[09:52] <knapper_> Anyone familiar with this problem?
[09:52] <Rarj> ompaul, what I meant was like Metacity etc
[09:52] <bilss_> hi
[09:52] <Pandora82> more or less reset the OS
[09:52] <mwe> Pandora82: reset? you mean reinstall?
[09:53] <velcroSHOOZE> is there a cli command to set your default font in X?
[09:53] <bilss_> where can i get pgp (not gunpg) for dapper
[09:53] <MenZa`laptop> velcroSHOOZE: did you set dingbats :D?
[09:53] <theBishop> can Rhythmbox connect to iTunes shares?
[09:53] <bsilverstrim> mwe: re-running apt-get install mysql-server-4.1 and then I'll paste that.

[09:53] <ivis> How to i install skype ? please help me
[09:53] <mwe> bsilverstrim: yeah
[09:53] <Dark_Knight_209> without sounding like a pervert...
[09:53] <ompaul> Rarj, ubuntu is metacity
[09:53] <Pandora82> mwe not really - a reset or something to get back to standard without loosing personal data
[09:53] <knapper_> Anyone?
[09:53] <mwe> !skype > ivis
[09:53] <velcroSHOOZE> MenZa`laptop: no heh just using a barebones windowmanager on another system here
[09:53] <Enverex> Well, this is retarded
[09:53] <Enverex> "Put one translator per line, in the form of NAME <EMAIL>, YEAR1, YEAR2"

[09:54] <Dark_Knight_209> anyone know where to get some of the  nude female ubuntu wallpaper i've seen everywhere
[09:54] <mwe> Pandora82: you can't just "reset" the system
[09:54] <mwe> Pandora82: what is the problem?
[09:54] <narfmaster> Dark_Knight_209, that's one of those old Calendars
[09:54] <Pandora82> playing DVDs - the drive doesn't seem to read them
[09:54] <zukalk> Pandora82: i don't think so. the only way would be by reinstalling the OS (after formatting the HDD?). make sure to backup
[09:54] <skiffy> anyone know if its possible to use an offline browser like httrack, then convert the copied website into .txt or something similar to import it into a database ?
[09:54] <IrIT> Nope, still no 1280x1024 resolution krism
[09:54] <ivis> krism dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[09:54] <angelika> it's quite boring, isn't it?
[09:54] <mwe> Pandora82: what makes you think a "reset" which is not really possible would fix that?
[09:54] <Rarj> ompaul, so whats the difference between gnome, metacity and GTK ??
[09:55] <krism> !sudo > ivis
[09:55] <jryer> Does anyone know why my USB flash devices are no longer recognized by ubuntu? They worked fine yesterday but after upgrading, I plug them in and nothing happens.

[10:01] <LjL> scenestar: don't excuse me
[10:01] <narfmaster> M4A19, you need to enable the universe repo
[10:01] <scenestar> ilu Seveas
[10:01] <tuxtux> reboot
[10:01] <mwe> Pandora82: go ahead though I'm not a fan of the "reinstall fix"
[10:01] <M4A19> i copied the list off of the ubuntu guide site
[10:01] <skiffy> anyone know if its possible to use an offline browser like httrack, then convert the copied website into .txt or something similar to import it into a database ?
[10:01] <Pandora82> mwe I can't reinstall... I can't backup my data
[10:02] <M4A19> wait nm i dont think i did a update
[10:02] <mwe> bsilverstrim: well you have some half installed things there. could you sudo dpkg -P all of those to make sure it's clean and try again
[10:02] <DarkJesus> OK, does anyone know of any gaim beta 3 packages with the tango icons by default?
[10:03] <M4A19> yeah i forgot to do apt-get update, sorry about that
[10:03] <mortal_> Hey all. I changed the contents of /etc/hostname, after reboot I can't sudo and gksu doesn't show the dialog. When logging in using Ctrl+alt+functionkey screens I get authentication failure, and sudo says it can't lookup my hostname via gethostbyname(). What do I do - I can't revert /etc/hostname since I can't get root priviledges :(
[10:04] <mwe> mortal_: boot to recovery mode and fix the file
[10:04] <Pandora82> I'm really fed up with ubuntu at the moment... waisting my whole freetime on this sh*t instead of relaxing and stuff like that
[10:04] <mortal_> mwe, will recovery mode let me log in as root?
[10:04] <Pandora82> and wasting other peoples free time as well
[10:04] <mwe> mortal_: yes it is root
[10:04] <mortal_> okay, I'll try that.
[10:04] <mwe> mortal_: and root only
[10:04] <Seveas> Pandora82, whining can go elsewhere. This channel is for support
[10:05] <narfmaster> Pandora82, you learned a lesson in patience, which is valuable in itself
[10:05] <angelika> tralala
[10:05] <angelika> is auch jem deutsches hier dabei?
[10:05] <ompaul> !de
[10:05] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[10:05] <Pandora82> ha maybe a need some menthal support too. patience... yes, but it could be so easy
[10:06] <mwe> Pandora82: just rename /home then boot a live cd and remove the rest then reinstall without formatting
[10:06] <ompaul> mwe, useful as always :)
[10:06] <mwe> Pandora82: actually rename /home from the live cd as well
[10:06] <MenZa`laptop> argh, my synaptic trackpad keeps dying on me
[10:06] <MenZa`laptop> as in, isn't working.
[10:07] <tom__> Wondering if "Ekiga" has the ability to cam with other browser IM services?
[10:07] <MenZa`laptop> I can still see my mouse cursor, but nothing happens when I try to move it around.
[10:07] <mwe> ompaul: heh
[10:07] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: I believe that's normal if the mouse is not working
[10:07] <daxxar> Should one use -smp on a DualCore laptop?
[10:08] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: very funny.
[10:08] <Pandora82> somehow I'm not willing to give up that easy
[10:08] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: no really I thought you were wondering why you could see the cursor and yet was unable to move it
[10:08] <daxxar> And, during netboot install, should I pick "linux-686", "linux-686-smp" or "linux-image-686"?
[10:08] <bzero> hola
[10:08] <bzero> alguien en espaol??
[10:08] <LjL> !es
[10:08] <daxxar> Laptop with Intel dualcore CPU.
[10:08] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:08] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: no, I'm wondering why my mouse isn't working :\
[10:09] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: yeah I figured by now :)
[10:09] <LuisMendes> besides amarok and XMMS, is there a good player with equalizer?
[10:09] <MenZa`laptop> hehe.
[10:09] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well is it usb?
[10:09] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: no, it's integrated in my laptop
[10:09] <Pandora82> would it help if some expert would get access to my computer and could take a look at all this (mess)?
[10:09] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: oh a touch pad or something?
[10:09] <MenZa`laptop> Pandora82: be careful with who you let into your computer!
[10:09] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: touchpad, right.
[10:09] <Pandora82> sure
[10:10] <MenZa`laptop> Pandora82: people can really mess up your system...
[10:10] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: do you know what brand? synaptic?
[10:10] <spangley234> what's a good cd burning software on ubuntu
[10:10] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: yeah, synaptic
[10:10] <MenZa`laptop> spangley234: k3b
[10:10] <Pandora82> I'm not talking about some strange jerk
[10:10] <znh> spangley234: bashburn if you prefer a terminal based one (forked on cdrecord)
[10:10] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well can you log in at a console (ctrl-alt-f1) ?
[10:10] <MenZa`laptop> Pandora82: just thought I'd tell you.
[10:10] <spangley234> prefer graphical burning thanks
[10:10] <tom__> Looking for advise for using "LS-120 Superdisk with Dapper.
[10:11] <LuisMendes> spangley234, gnomebaker is excellent to burn both data and audio CDs/DVDs
[10:11] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: er... it's just my mousepad--why would I want to login to a shell?
[10:11] <MenZa`laptop> cli*
[10:11] <Pandora82> but I'm a newbie and have way not enough knowledge to fix this on my own... and I also don't know any linux-expert in person
[10:11] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well if you can get an xterm up that's fine. could be hard without a mouse
[10:12] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: oh, right.
[10:12] <MenZa`laptop> let me go there.
[10:12] <B1zz> hmmm speaking of wich.......
[10:12] <bsilverstrim> Thanks, MWE. It looks like it's installed...I have to test it some more.  Right now I need to pack up and go pick up the baby from daycare!
[10:12] <B1zz> im a sucker for shortcuts
[10:12] <bsilverstrim> Thanks again!
[10:12] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well is xfree86-driver-synaptics installed?
[10:12] <B1zz> anyone got a good site that has Xubuntu shortcuts?
[10:12] <mwe> bsilverstrim: it worked after you cleaned it?
[10:12] <LuisMendes> spangley234, there is also K3B, but that's mainly for KDE
[10:12] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: right, I'm ready. So, what do I do then?
[10:13] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well is xfree86-driver-synaptics installed?
[10:13] <bsilverstrim> It looks like the install worked after purging 4x and 5x components.
[10:13] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: do you know?
[10:13] <bsilverstrim> then re-running apt-get install server 4.1
[10:13] <spangley234> thanks for the suggestions
[10:13] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: unless it installs it by itself, it isn't (brand new install on a lappy)
[10:13] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: dpkg -l|grep synaptics
[10:14] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: does that return anything?
[10:14] <Ballsy> Anyone have experience in passing kernel args when using the Dapper LiveCD, specifically to fix apparent problems with SiS 760  on-board vid cards ?
[10:14] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: hold on
[10:14] <bsilverstrim> mwe: it's running mysql as a process now, and mysql -V reports a 4.x version.
[10:14] <user-land> lm-sensors gives me: 'no sensors found!'
[10:14] <mwe> bsilverstrim: great then
[10:14] <MenZa`laptop2> 0.14.3seriouslythistime-0ubuntu3, mwe
[10:14] <MenZa`laptop2> aswell as xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[10:14] <COmmander-Crowe> I'm in UBuntu 6.06
[10:14] <COmmander-Crowe> and my internet is super slow
[10:15] <mwe> user-land: they don't work with all computers. it's even reported to break ibm laptops
[10:15] <COmmander-Crowe> its going too slow for dsl
[10:15] <COmmander-Crowe> I'm downloading stuff in synaptics
[10:15] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: huh. that's what dpkg -l|grep synaptics returned?
[10:15] <COmmander-Crowe> and its downloading stuff at like 6 KB/s
[10:15] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: yes.
[10:15] <user-land> mwe, is there a way to see the CPU temperature ?
[10:15] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: well sudo apt-get install xfree86-driver-synaptics
[10:15] <MenZa`laptop2> "Synaptics touchpad driver x.org server"!
[10:15] <COmmander-Crowe> ever 2 mins it speeds up to 250 KB/s though for about 5 secs
[10:15] <MenZa`laptop2> :)
[10:16] <COmmander-Crowe> anyone?
[10:16] <COmmander-Crowe> no one?
[10:16] <mwe> user-land: yeah. gkrellm is one option
[10:16] <mortal_> Hey, I'm back. I can't use sudo or gksu because /etc/hostname is invalid, and I changed /boot/grub/menu.lst to require a password for non-default entries. This password is set to be md5-encoded, but I used a 16 * hexadecimal byte format which was not the one in the example, and after entering password it also says it's invalid. How can I start in recovery mode, or revert / edit my /boot/grub/menu.lst without needing root-access?
[10:16] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: great. I'm running an upgrade
[10:16] <alephant> What's the name of the Ubuntu printer config tool?  I wanna start it by hand...
[10:17] <spangley234> is there a good graphical wireless network scan and config tool for ubuntu for when you are roaming?
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: how can I go back into x without restarting it?
[10:17] <COmmander-Crowe> how do I change my screen res>
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> !resolutionhowto
[10:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about resolutionhowto - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:17] <mwe> MenZa`laptop2: did you type sudo apt-get install xfree86-driver-synaptics ?
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: dpkg is running, so I can't right now.
[10:17] <mwe> MenZa`laptop2: and did it install?
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> I'm running an upgrade.
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> I want to go back into x and cancel it
[10:17] <COmmander-Crowe> I tried that thing in preperances
[10:17] <tiffany> mortal_ live cd
[10:17] <MenZa`laptop2> unless I can do that from the shell anyway.
[10:18] <COmmander-Crowe> but it doesn't give me an option
[10:18] <MenZa`laptop2> COmmander-Crowe: change your xorg.conf.
[10:18] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: oh. ctrl-alt-f7
[10:18] <mortal_> alright, I'll do that
[10:18] <COmmander-Crowe> where is it?
[10:18] <Rikkimaru_> How would I go about configuring a SuSe email server into my Evolution inbox?
[10:18] <mwe> MenZa`laptop2: ^^

[10:19] <COmmander-Crowe> where is xorg.conf?
[10:19] <MenZa`laptop> wtf.
[10:19] <Ballsy> Rikkimaru, you mean, just configuring Evolution to retrieve mail from it ?
[10:19] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[10:19] <mwe> alephant: gnome-cups-manager is the gui I think
[10:19] <alephant> isn't there a GTK printer applet?
[10:19] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:19] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: scroll down to the resolutions bit and add them there.
[10:19] <MenZa`laptop> You can't miss it.
[10:19] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:19] <alephant> ah
[10:19] <alephant> that's the one

[10:20] <eric_> i need help
[10:20] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: with what?
[10:20] <user-land> mwe, i don't see CPU temperature in gkrellm ...
[10:21] <eric_> i need to learn how to fix my video card
[10:21] <COmmander-Crowe> it is there
[10:21] <skiffy> would an html parser allow me to convert a whole list of donwloaded web pages to .txt and strip out the html code, leaving just the pages content ?
[10:21] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: what is wrong with it?
[10:21] <mwe> user-land: hmm. are you sure you can enable it in options?
[10:21] <eric_> i am trying to play a game and it is going slow
[10:21] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: it should say it, there's a line that goes something like "800x600"     "1024x768" etc.
[10:21] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: have you installed the proper drivers for it?
[10:21] <eric_> my dad says i need to fix my video card
[10:22] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: you probably need to install drivers.
[10:22] <kalosaurusrex> what's the command to fix a broken package...rwar
[10:22] <fredmorcos> people
[10:22] <COmmander-Crowe> yeah there is one there
[10:22] <fredmorcos> i need help with a wireless driver
[10:22] <eric_> that is what i nee d help with
[10:22] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: simply add the resolutions you need.
[10:22] <COmmander-Crowe> theres like three of them
[10:22] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: what video card it?
[10:22] <mwe> kalosaurusrex: that depends
[10:22] <COmmander-Crowe> but i still can't change it
[10:22] <fredmorcos> broadcom that come with the hp nx6310 notebook
[10:22] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: yeps. add it to all of them.
[10:22] <fredmorcos> lspci gives: broadcom corp. unknow device 4311 (rev 01)
[10:22] <MenZa`laptop> Then restart your xserver.
[10:22] <x-Dieu> howdy world (;
[10:22] <eric_> i do not know tha is the problem
[10:22] <COmmander-Crowe> its all here
[10:22] <kalosaurusrex> mwe: yeah. but isn't it apt-get -f or something? or dpkg-reconfigure -f?  something like that. I can't remember.
[10:22] <eric_> im a novice
[10:22] <COmmander-Crowe> what should I add
[10:22] <kalosaurusrex> neither of which work.
[10:23] <COmmander-Crowe> 800 x 600?
[10:23] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: what video card are you running?
[10:23] <kalosaurusrex> I need the apt one.
[10:23] <wildman> eric_, run lspci | grep -i vga on a terminal window to know which video card you have
[10:23] <mwe> kalosaurusrex: sudo apt-get -f install will install missing deps
[10:23] <skiffy> anyone know much about html parsers ?
[10:23] <eric_> let me check
[10:23] <COmmander-Crowe> I switched monitors thats why this happend
[10:23] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: standard resolutions for a 4:3 monitor include 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1600x1200.
[10:23] <mwe> kalosaurusrex: sudo dpkg-reconfigure package will reconfigure it
[10:23] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: right.
[10:23] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:23] <COmmander-Crowe> the most i can do it 1024X769
[10:24] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: I like 1600x1200 myself, but most people like 1280x1024
[10:24] <MenZa`laptop> Oh?
[10:24] <mwe> kalosaurusrex: or sudo apt-get --purge remove package && sudo apt-get install package will reinstall it with default config
[10:24] <eric_> ill be back in a minute
[10:24] <mwe> kalosaurusrex: careful with the last one though
[10:24] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: configuring the packages, shouldn't take more than a second.
[10:24] <user-land> it isn't listed under Sensors:Temperatures, mwe ...
[10:24] <COmmander-Crowe> dang it
[10:24] <COmmander-Crowe> I can't write to the file
[10:24] <COmmander-Crowe> whats the command again
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: could you guide that eric guy through installing a graphics driver? I'm not 100%% myself.
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: open it by using "sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf"
[10:25] <COmmander-Crowe> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> yes.
[10:25] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:25] <richard_> does ubuntu have apache installed?
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> Change what
[10:25] <mwe> user-land: well it depends on the hardware. I use gkrellm with ibm-acpi
[10:25] <wildman> richard_, not by default, at least on Dapper
[10:25] <jaek> OMG, i have a serial ATA hdd running edgy and suddenly it stopped booting... cus it change the drive labels from hdaX to sdaX during the last kernel upgrade
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> wildman: I recommend LAMP or XAMPP
[10:25] <MenZa`laptop> !lamp
[10:25] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:26] <mwe> user-land: maybe you need to load a kernel module but I don't know your hardware
[10:26] <shigutso> is there a command to Reset the PPPOECONF configuration?
[10:26] <richard_> basically im trying to get svn access to koffice
[10:26] <COmmander-Crowe> um
[10:26] <richard_> so i guess i need apache and svn
[10:26] <COmmander-Crowe> I do that and the file is blank
[10:26] <Guest477> hiya all and good day
[10:26] <znh> Wouldent it not be an idea to make a dummy package for LAMP?
[10:26] <mwe> shigutso: sudo apt-get --purge remove it then sudo apt-get install it
[10:26] <user-land> i use asus motherboard with amd 64, mwe
[10:26] <MenZa`laptop> richard_: I could be wrong, but I only think you need svn to access it.
[10:27] <MenZa`laptop> After all, Apache is just server software.
[10:27] <wildman> znh, indeed it would
[10:27] <shigutso> mwe, how, if i am not going to be connected with internet? ...
[10:27] <mwe> shigutso: then make a backup of the default config before you start messing with it again :)
[10:27] <Guest477> i have a usb ext hdd and it is locked, sresumably i need to sudo mount or something to be able to read and write, can you help>
[10:27] <johan__> I can't write to anyone on msn in gaim, I'm just getting an error with the switchboard. Has someone else gotten this problem?
[10:27] <znh> wildman: Though, I never would put Ubuntu on a production server
[10:28] <Guest477> btw
[10:28] <mwe> shigutso: good point. do you have the package file in /var/cache/apt/archives ?
[10:28] <Guest477> the drive is readable :)
[10:28] <wildman> johan_, today MSN on gaim worked fine here
[10:28] <MenZa`laptop> Guest477: you need to download a utility to ntfs write.
[10:28] <wildman> znh, that's a whole different (off-topic ;)) discussion ;)
[10:28] <znh> wildman: not really :)
[10:28] <COmmander-Crowe> its opens but its blank
[10:28] <Guest477> super menza, have you any recommends?
[10:28] <shigutso> mwe, hmm I don't know...
[10:28] <MenZa`laptop> Guest477: of course, assuming it's NTFS
[10:28] <mwe> shigutso: look
[10:28] <znh> johan_: You may like to try Bitlbee, it's a IRC gateway to most IM's
[10:28] <Guest477> it is :)
[10:29] <MenZa`laptop> Guest477: slashdot it, I read there was something that should revolutionise ntfs write on linux
[10:29] <user-land> how can i make the gkrellm window bigger ?
[10:29] <johan_> znh: will do that. thanks
[10:29] <Warbo> Help, Rhythmbox won't die! (I tried KILL signal)
[10:29] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: /etc/x11/xorg.conf?
[10:29] <tailsfan> Warbo, try system monitor
[10:30] <COmmander-Crowe> yes
[10:30] <Warbo> user-land: You can specify it's width in the preferences (right click the titlebar)
[10:30] <Guest477> menza> boy that sure sounds exciting :) thank you vm :) and all of you have a fantastic and God blessed day :)
[10:30] <MenZa`laptop> Guest477: thanks, you too :)
[10:30] <user-land> warbo, it needs to be higher, some info is hidden.
[10:30] <Warbo> tailsfan: It says "uninterruptable"
[10:30] <MenZa`laptop> Keep me updated, I have an external harddrive I'd like to hook ups oime too
[10:30] <MenZa`laptop> sometime too*
[10:30] <Guest477> :) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>whiz
[10:30] <tailsfan> Oh
[10:30] <tailsfan> I'm getting a curses error
[10:30] <COmmander-Crowe> yeah it comes up blank everytime
[10:31] <mwe> tailsfan: curses error :=)
[10:31] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: are you sure you're typing it in correctly?
[10:31] <COmmander-Crowe> sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[10:31] <MenZa`laptop> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:31] <tailsfan> I'm trying to ./configure something and it's giving me a -lcurses error
[10:31] <MenZa`laptop> capital z, my bad
[10:31] <Warbo> Quake3 has no sound, I am assuming that rhythmbox needs to close first?
[10:31] <MenZa`laptop> Warbo: yes.
[10:31] <mwe> tailsfan: maybe you need the libncurses5-dev package
[10:32] <Warbo> MenZa`laptopDamn it :(
[10:32] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:32] <COmmander-Crowe> got it
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> Warbo: there is a orkaround.
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> workaround*
[10:32] <wildman> Warbo, killall -TERM rhythmbox ?
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> it's all in the soundmode.
[10:32] <wildman> Warbo, or even with 'sudo' in front? :)
[10:32] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: you need to upgrade your keyboard driver along with the mouse driver :)
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: oh?
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> What would that be?
[10:32] <MenZa`laptop> (I'm on a DELL C600)
[10:32] !lilo:*! Access from OLS was restored.... there's a small, unofficial channel here for folks who are there.... ##ols .... thanks
[10:32] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: I was trying to be funny
[10:33] <leagris> hello all
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> Oh :(
[10:33] <Warbo> Still there
[10:33] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: beacause of your typos :)
[10:33] <devhen> johan__, msn works for me in gaim. if you want to try to msg me go ahead: devhen@msn.com
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> I'm tired, mwe. If I weren't, it'd probably be funny ;)
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: ah, it freezes for a few seconds now and then.
[10:33] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: nevermind
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> heh :)
[10:33] <elias_> how to make beagle start on F12?
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> So whatever keys I type in, it's not registering
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> :)
[10:33] <COmmander-Crowe> now what
[10:33] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: in the file?
[10:33] <COmmander-Crowe> I edited the xorg.conf
[10:34] <_BASO_> hello I have some problems with PCMCIA Devices on my laptop, who can help ? the ubuntu can not recognize none of them
[10:34] <MenZa`laptop> Right, scroll down until you get a "section MONITOR" or something.
[10:34] <leagris> Is there an config file to set parameters in /sysfs simmilar to /etc/sysconfig/sysint for /proc?
[10:34] <COmmander-Crowe> changed it to 800X600
[10:34] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: Right.
[10:34] <_BASO_> I have tried 2 network cards and 1 modem ...
[10:34] <COmmander-Crowe> from 600X80
[10:34] <COmmander-Crowe> now what?
[10:34] <mwe> elias_: in kde there is a shorcut configuration thing in kcontrol I think there is something like it gnome as well
[10:34] <MenZa`laptop> CTRL + ALT + Backspace to restart X
[10:35] <MenZa`laptop> 600x80? What kind of resolution is that :|
[10:35] <mwe> leagris: sysctl
[10:35] <leagris> mwe, sysctl only set inside /proc tree not inside /sysfs or I don't know how to let it set variables in /sysfs mwe
[10:36] <elias_> beagle is supposed to start on F12 why is it not doing it?
[10:36] <mwe> leagris: I thought you just did echo whatever > /proc/foo to set /proc parameters
[10:37] <COmmander-Crowe> it didn't work
[10:37] <COmmander-Crowe> still 600X480
[10:37] <Warbo> elias_: I have problems with Beagle. I would suggest 1) make sure it is running at login (System>Preferences>Session) and 2) Try setting it in the System>Preferences>Keyboard thingie for keyboard shortcuts
[10:37] <COmmander-Crowe> tried to change it but didn't have option
[10:37] <leagris> mwe, that's what i do for now in rc.local but I thout there may be some much ubuntu friendly config file to deal with
[10:37] <Warbo> !keyboard
[10:37] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[10:38] <Tommy2k4> im trying to run kubuntu livecd on another pc and its giving loads of these errors:
[10:38] <Stormx2> How do I fake a user-agent in firefox? what app should I use?
[10:38] <mwe> leagris: what are you trying to do, specifically?
[10:38] <Tommy2k4> buffer i/o error on device dm-1
[10:38] <leagris> mwe, it is to set default video input and standard for my pvrusb2
[10:38] <COmmander-Crowe> sow hat next?
[10:38] <mwe> Stormx2: I think there is a plugin
[10:39] <elias_> Warbo: the gnome key shortcut thing does not allow to define custom shortcuts. I can only redefine the ones in the list but not add anything!
[10:40] <mwe> leagris: I think echo in /etc/rc.local is the way to go
[10:40] <leagris> mwe, the controls belong to root so it has to be set up at boot time so, i put the echo in /etc/init.d/rc.local
[10:40] <Warbo> elias_: Surely F12 can be mapped to whatever command is used to launch the Beagle window?
[10:40] <elias_> Warbo: no!
[10:41] <Warbo> elias_: Hang on, I will try it myself
[10:41] <leagris> mwe, as there exist some very simmilar config file sysctl for /proc I thought there was one for /sysfs as well
[10:41] <mwe> leagris: I might be mistaken but I don't think so
[10:41] <root__> salut
[10:41] <MenZa`laptop> !fr
[10:41] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[10:42] <Tommy2k4> does anyone know whether device dm-1 is likely to be the cd drive or the hdd when using livecd
[10:42] <leagris> mwe, /sysfs is meant to replace /proc sooner or later so...
[10:42] <james_> Has anyone got DB2 C Express v8.2 install instructions? The IBM installer crashes out on Ubuntu 6.06. I have SUN's JRE5 installed via apt.
[10:42] <eric_> im back
[10:42] <root__> ya un truc qui craint l?
[10:42] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: so... which card was it?
[10:42] <Orbit45244> Can someone help me with this issue: when I boot Ubuntu from a live cd, it gets stuck on the "setting up keyboard" step and the the screen turns black and the message on the screen is "Extracting Linux... Ok, launching kernel" and it just hangs there.
[10:42] <root__> oops sorry
[10:42] <eric_> i couldnt see it my dad even couldnt see it
[10:42] <eric_> even on the boot
[10:43] <COmmander-Crowe> MenZa `laptop: what should i try now? I googled
[10:43] <chucky> god damn internets fallen over
[10:43] <mwe> leagris: yeah it's been on the way several years already though
[10:43] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: go and set your resolun in that dialogue.
[10:43] <COmmander-Crowe> how?
[10:43] <MenZa`laptop> System -> Preferences -> Resolution
[10:43] <COmmander-Crowe> lol
[10:43] <COmmander-Crowe> I did that first
[10:44] <COmmander-Crowe> and I did that again
[10:44] <COmmander-Crowe> and i just did it now
[10:44] <MenZa`laptop> oh?
[10:44] <MenZa`laptop> that is pretty weird
[10:44] <Orbit45244> help please.
[10:44] <eric_> so what do u recommend i do to find out
[10:44] <COmmander-Crowe> it only shows 600X460
[10:44] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: pastebin your xorg.conf
[10:44] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:45] <eric_> what do you reccommend
[10:45] <COmmander-Crowe> wait paste the whole xorg.conf in the chan?
[10:45] <leagris> mwe, time to hack a sysps init script and propose a spec for it or someone already working on that ?
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: I don't know.
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: Pastebin!
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> paste
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> !paste
[10:45] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:45] <eric_> thanks anyway
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> eric_: ask the channel.
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> Someone is bouund toknw.
[10:45] <MenZa`laptop> bound to know*
[10:46] <mwe> leagris: I don't know. you could report a bug. it would be rejected if it's already on the way
[10:46] <MenZa`laptop> hi gnomefreak
[10:46] <COmmander-Crowe> ok
[10:46] <COmmander-Crowe> did it
[10:46] <ThunderStruck> hi
[10:47] <Warbo> elias_: OK, I admit defeat.
[10:47] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: link me to it.
[10:47] <COmmander-Crowe> argh
[10:47] <elias_> Warbo: Unfortunately!
[10:47] <MenZa`laptop> mwe: right, gonna try that now.
[10:47] <Warbo> elias_: But at least you made me realise I had removed Beagle :)
[10:47] <user-land> mwe, do i need to load a kernel module to see the CPU temperature of an AMD Athlon 64 3000+, using ubuntu 64 ?
[10:47] <MenZa`laptop> COmmander-Crowe: have someone follow up, I need to fix one of my own, critical problems ;)
[10:47] <MenZa`laptop> People'll know
[10:47] <MenZa`laptop> Probably better than I.
[10:47] <COmmander-Crowe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18385
[10:48] <avalean> "checking cd for defects" is that a hash/md5 check of the files?
[10:48] <elias_> Warbo: Something seems wrong with the beagle package.
[10:48] <xxzs> nobody is talking?
[10:48] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: package is downloading :)
[10:48] <elias_> Warbo: It does not find my emails either!
[10:48] <MenZa`laptop2> COmmander-Crowe: I would keep up support, but I can't open that link in my browser ;)
[10:48] <Warbo> elias_: I can't get it to give me results. I added indexing extensions to my filesystems and exercised the dog, but all I get for results is the occasional system file
[10:48] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: just a reboot then?
[10:48] <COmmander-Crowe> oh
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> COmmander-Crowe: brb
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> I can continue then.
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: after I install the synaptics driver, do I just reboot?
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> Or just restart x?
[10:49] <linuxgoober> what password do i use for cervasia?
[10:49] <eric_> does anybody know how i can find the kind of video card i have besides opening the computer and looking at the card?
[10:49] <mwe> MenZa: well I think the package updates xorg.conf but I'd check
[10:49] <elias_> Warbo: It used to work. It worked with kerry.
[10:49] <elias_> in flight 7 or so
[10:49] <Warbo> elias_: It's never worked for me
[10:49] <xxzs> how to talk with someday privately??
[10:49] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: ^^
[10:49] <xxzs> somebody
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: ieven if I did check, I wouldn't know what was changed :)
[10:49] <MenZa`laptop2> xxzs: ask the channel your question.
[10:50] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: you'd look for synaptics
[10:50] <xxzs> thanks
[10:50] <MenZa`laptop2> mwe: well, there was a driver already :)
[10:50] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: grep -i synaptics /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:50] <mwe> MenZa`laptop: make sure that device is the default further down
[10:50] <MenZa`laptop2> Synaptics Touchpad :)
[10:50] <eric_> thanks a lot :(
[10:50] <MenZa`laptop2> Rebooting, mwe
[10:51] <mwe> ok
[10:51] <MenZa`laptop2> b rb
[10:51] <COmmander-Crowe> I'm downloading a newer version of X
[10:51] <COmmander-Crowe> that'll fix it 10 to 1
[10:52] <Warbo> OK, I am loath to do it, but I will reboot to kill rhythmbox. I only opened it up to get a screenshot of it :(
[10:53] <mwe> Warbo: huh
[10:53] <mwe> ?
[10:53] <mwe> Warbo: can't you xkill it or killall -9 it?
[10:54] <mwe> Warbo: or at the extreme log out and back in without rebooting
[10:54] <Warbo> mwe: Well the window is long gone. I "kill -s KILL"ed it, but no luck
[10:54] <mwe> Warbo: how does it show in ps aux?
[10:54] <Warbo> chris     6734  0.0  3.5  58360 13580 ?        D    21:15   0:01 rhythmbox
[10:54] <snes_rocks> hello! i was wondering if there way a way to play a .vox file in linux
[10:55] <snes_rocks> mplayer crashes and sox says its an invalid format
[10:55] <mwe> snes_rocks: what kind of file is that?
[10:55] <snes_rocks> i've heard references to voxware
[10:55] <yesid> Hello, everyone
[10:55] <Warbo> snes_rocks: Sounds like a sample of some sort, dunno what it is though
[10:56] <mwe> Warbo: is that ps aux?
[10:56] <Warbo> mwe: Yeah
[10:56] <snes_rocks> apparantly its a type of sound format that specializes in voice data
[10:56] <mwe> Warbo: it looks like thre are some missing fields
[10:56] <yesid> I would like to know, what is the difference between de DVD and the CD installation
[10:56] <ForeClosure> if i created root .. can i delete it back later ?
[10:56] <COmmander-Crowe> internet is working better
[10:56] <mortal_> Hey. I'm on the live CD right now, but on boot I entered rescue and it said it couldn't find disk image 'rescue', and I don't see any options to rescue an old installation from the live cd run, not in the install either.
[10:56] <eXistenZ> How can I fix "vim: Depends: vim-common (= 1:6.4-006+2ubuntu6) but 1:7.0-017+3 is to be installed
[10:56] <eXistenZ> E: Broken packages"
[10:56] <daxxar> What package should I look at for support for Intel 3945ABG Wireless card?
[10:56] <mwe> Warbo: and what happens if you sudo kill -9 6734?
[10:56] <ForeClosure> !root
[10:56] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:56] <WhatTheDeuce> Hello.  Is there any tool I could use inside Ubuntu to shrink another partition on the hard drive (my Windows partition) without loosing data?
[10:57] <COmmander-Crowe> !image old HDD
[10:57] <ubotu> I know nothing about image old HDD - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:57] <Stormx2> how do I re-read /etc/fstab without rebooting?
[10:57] <to_s> does anyone have the problem with remote desktop not working with ATI cards?
[10:57] <COmmander-Crowe> argh
[10:57] <Warbo> chris     6734  0.0  3.5  58360 13580 ?        D    21:15   0:01 rhythmbox No difference
[10:57] <mwe> eXistenZ: fix your /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo apt-get update
[10:57] <yesid> I would like to know, what is the difference between de DVD and the CD installation
[10:57] <Warbo> WhatTheDeuce: GParted, as long as you don't touch any partition which is mounted
[10:57] <to_s> vncserver works fine and there are no fw issues
[10:58] <Warbo> !gparted
[10:58] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[10:58] <mwe> Warbo: yeah it's stubbon. I wonder why it doesn't show as defunct though
[10:58] <COmmander-Crowe> !xorg
[10:58] <Stormx2> how do I get ubuntu to re-read /etc/fstab without rebooting?
[10:58] <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
[10:58] <eXistenZ> mwe, it is fixed.
[10:58] <Warbo> yesid: DVD doesn't rely on an Internet connection to get packages
[10:58] <mwe> Warbo: if it's lost in kernel space rebooting is indeed the only option though or just ignore it
[10:59] <mortal_> Can't I rescue my Ubuntu installation from the live cd? Is it only available from the alternate install cd? In the F1 help in live cd boot menu it said I could enter the command 'rescue' and so I did, but it said there wasn't a disc image 'rescue'.
[10:59] <Warbo> mwe: It only really bothered me when Quake 3 got no sound. I "killall esd"ed and it still had no sound, so I assumed it was rhythmbox
[10:59] <mwe> Warbo: if kill -9 doesn't kill it nothing short of a reboot will
[11:00] <eXistenZ> mwe, still the same problem =/
[11:00] <Stormx2> how do I get ubuntu to re-read /etc/fstab without rebooting?
[11:00] <mwe> Warbo: it's a bug of course though
[11:00] <Warbo> mwe: By bye then........
[11:00] <eXistenZ> mwe, how can I downgrade a package's version using apt-get?
[11:00] <mwe> eXistenZ: please remove all vim packages and retry. if it doesn't help paste your sources.list to paste.ubuntu-nl.org so I can see it
[11:00] <yesid> how can I get my ubuntu running again after a dist-upgrade operation?, the X is not working and I did a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org
[11:01] <Stormx2> yesid: I had the same problem :(
[11:01] <Stormx2> yesid: What errors do you get when you startx?
[11:01] <eXistenZ> mwe, what are the names of the vim packages?
[11:01] <WhatTheDeuce> Warbo: Thanks.  I'll try that
[11:01] <Stormx2> how do I get ubuntu to re-read /etc/fstab without rebooting?
[11:01] <mwe> eXistenZ: dpkg -l|grep vim and look at the output
[11:02] <yesid> that a have a bad configuration in the xserver.org, I look it but I think nothing wrong
[11:02] <mwe> eXistenZ: then sudo apt-get --purge remove them
[11:02] <rexxkwando> my network connection on my desktop keeps dropping off.  My laptop works fine on the same network.  Any suggestions?
[11:03] <Enverex> Is there a list anywhere of the latest packages added to Synaptic?
[11:03] <linuxgoober> wehre do you find out what the cvs password is?
[11:03] <eXistenZ> mwe, great. Now everything works :)
[11:03] <eXistenZ> mwe, Thanks a million
[11:03] <Mastro> hi all
[11:03] <mwe> rexxkwando: a bad driver used with ndiswrapper caused the network to die randomly for me once
[11:03] <WhatTheDeuce> Warbo: gparted isn't letting me do anything to the Windows partition except delete it.  What could cause this?
[11:03] <COmmander-Crowe> hi there!
[11:04] <mwe> eXistenZ: yw
[11:04] <Mastro> need help with ubuntu 64 bit (amd) version
[11:04] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[11:04] <Commander-Crowe> shoot
[11:04] <eXistenZ> mwe, Do you recommend any way to upgrade to vim7?
[11:04] <rexxkwando> well, I guess I'll reinstall the driver then
[11:04] <Mastro> i put on the 6.06 Ubuntu...
[11:04] <mwe> WhatTheDeuce: does it even support ntfs?
[11:04] <Mastro> let it start
[11:04] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[11:05] <mwe> eXistenZ: I don't know
[11:05] <Mastro> and after a while the kernel goes panic
[11:05] <mwe> eXistenZ: Id install it from source with checkinstall
[11:05] <MenZa_> mwe: didn't work :(
[11:05] <richard_> mwe i got a windows NTFS partition working fine on a slave drive
[11:05] <Tommy2k4> is there a livecd paramater (f6) to make it install instead of booting to livecd
[11:05] <richard_> with dapper 6.06
[11:05] <Mastro> this is the message..
[11:05] <futlib> hi. I have an intel 915 mobile graphics card, and xserver-xorg-driver-i810 installed and selected for xorg, as well as i810 and i915 loaded with modprobe
[11:05] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: what CPU do you have?
[11:05] <mwe> richard_: I mean does gparted support resizing ntfs
[11:05] <AlienX> mwe, yes
[11:05] <futlib> my question: are this the official drivers from intel? if not: are the intel drivers better for 3d acceleration?
[11:06] <Mastro> Kernel panic - not syncing PCI-DMA: high address but IOMMU
[11:06] <mwe> MenZa_: oh. paste your xorg.conf to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:06] <Mastro> i run a laptop, Asus A4K..
[11:06] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: but what kind of processor do you use?
[11:06] <Mastro> i allready seeked on the forum.. and i found other guys with my laptop and the same problem
[11:06] <Commander-Crowe> hm
[11:06] <mwe> AlienX: well from knoppix it said parted doesn't support ntfs. I gues it's another version then
[11:07] <Mastro> AMD 64 bit (Athlon)
[11:07] <Commander-Crowe> Iso its an athlon 64?
[11:07] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[11:07] <ForeClosure> !kernel
[11:07] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:08] <Lobster> n8
[11:08] <AlienX> mwe, i've used gparted to resize lots of ntfs partitions
[11:08] <Jimmey> I'm having some Grub troubles - The kernel image update screwed up menu.lst, the Window's entry was wiped, and now, with what I'm sure is an identical entry, Windows won't boot.
[11:08] <Commander-Crowe> it might be an interference with your PCI card slot
[11:08] <mwe> AlienX: I see
[11:08] <Lamington> wow 804 nicks...
[11:08] <Commander-Crowe> if you have one
[11:08] <Mastro> i think the i386 version will work fine (becouse of i read the same problem on the forum, and this guy, with my laptop, say the i386 version worked perfectly)
[11:08] <hmrocha> hello
[11:08] <AlienX> mwe, i typically use kanotix and gparted inside of it before I dual boot any computers with windows
[11:08] <Commander-Crowe> yeah 64-bit Ubuntu is "unstable"
[11:09] <mwe> AlienX: yes
[11:09] <Commander-Crowe> I'm on it right now and i get a slew of problems
[11:09] <Enverex> Mastro, It should work fine, I'm using it on my Athlon64 Desktop now, but it's a 32bit kernel, so if you're running 64bit Ubuntu it won't work
[11:09] <hmrocha> i have two two tft monitors side by side, how can i put a wallpaper in just one of them?
[11:09] <recon0> Is there any kind of poker game for Ubuntu?
[11:09] <Enverex> I'm running i386 because of too many programs not in the 64bit version
[11:09] <mwe> Commander-Crowe: yeah 64bit linux is not quite mature yet I think
[11:09] <WoooD> Hi ! any know how to make updates with Ubuntu in console mode ?
[11:09] <Commander-Crowe> I agree
[11:09] <Mastro> i have an amd 64... and the version amd 64 should work
[11:10] <Commander-Crowe> yes it should but it is possible that it just might not
[11:10] <mwe> Commander-Crowe: the kernel should be stable but not the programs
[11:10] <Mastro> in this machine im running Debian kernel 2.6.15 with Athlon Amd 64 (K8)
[11:10] <Commander-Crowe> I'd stick with I386 version
[11:10] <chucky> ok i can talk to my router by sticking its gateway ip into firefox yet it wont let me get http pages
[11:10] <Commander-Crowe> its more mature and stable
[11:10] <chucky> im thinking it may be a dns server issue
[11:10] <Enverex> Mastro, Are you running the normal Ubuntu or the 64bit version though?
[11:10] <Mastro> can you simply explain me the meaning of that error?
[11:10] <chucky> but anyone got any ideas
[11:10] <Commander-Crowe> no
[11:11] <Mastro> Enverex: 64 bit gave me the kernel panic
[11:11] <mwe> chucky: try sudo dhclient your interface to see if you get an ip
[11:11] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: it could mean many things
[11:11] <Mastro> commander: ok.. what do you need to know?
[11:11] <Commander-Crowe> I'm guessing it has to do with your north/south bridge
[11:12] <Commander-Crowe> but I guessed
[11:12] <Mastro> commander: i really wanna do it work
[11:12] <chucky> ok it gave me the correct subnet and gateway
[11:12] <chucky> and it says i have an ip
[11:12] <Commander-Crowe> but through google thats what I'm thinking
[11:12] <chucky> yet i still dont have http pages
[11:12] <mwe> chucky: now ping yahoo.com
[11:12] <mwe> chucky: and restart ff
[11:12] <Mastro> commander: i allready searched on google.. useless
[11:12] <chucky> what to type to ping?
[11:13] <Commander-Crowe> ./ping yahoo.com
[11:13] <mwe> chucky: ping yahoo.com
[11:13] <Enverex> Mastro, try with the options "noacpi acpi=off"
[11:13] <mwe> chucky: not ./
[11:13] <Mastro> commander: im not very expert on linux..
[11:13] <Enverex> erm
[11:13] <Rikkimaru_> if my xorg.conf has a resolution in it's "Default Monitor" section, why can't I use that resolution in System->Preferences->Screen Resolution ?
[11:13] <Enverex> Mastro, try with the options "noapic acpi=off"
[11:13] <chucky> ok its pinging
[11:13] <Mastro> enverex: what this option is supposed to do?
[11:13] <mwe> chucky: good restart firefox and retry
[11:13] <chucky> im getting between 185 and 200
[11:13] <Enverex> Mastro, Possibly make it work
[11:14] <chucky> still not woking
[11:14] <Mastro> commander: but i can understand many thing if you explain me..
[11:14] <mwe> chucky: odd.
[11:14] <chucky> yup
[11:14] <Mastro> enverex: i will try.. but what does it mean?
[11:14] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: 64-bit Ubuntu isn't a stable linux yet, it didn't work with my Pentium D 64-bit proc
[11:14] <chucky> i had it working earlier but it just fell over on me
[11:14] <Commander-Crowe> it isn't fully developed
[11:14] <mwe> chucky: you tried several pages of course?
[11:15] <chucky> when it was 70% through getting the video and audio codecs
[11:15] <chucky> yup
[11:15] <Mastro> do you suggest to use the i386 version?
[11:15] <chucky> google, yahoo, hotmail
[11:15] <Rikkimaru_> if my xorg.conf has a resolution in it's "Default Monitor" section, why can't I use that resolution in System->Preferences->Screen Resolution ?
[11:15] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: Absalutly
[11:15] <z0r1> Is there a short guide to getting mp3/divx/xvid/h.264 working?
[11:15] <mwe> Mastro: I second that
[11:15] <chucky> z0r1 - easyubuntu does it all for you
[11:15] <uXp> monrning all
[11:15] <jryer> screw you guys, im outta here.
[11:15] <Nekow42> z0r1: You want EasyUbuntu or similair
[11:15] <Mastro> mwe: what?
[11:15] <Cntryboy> Anyone know why kaffeine has a slash through the speaker and it's not on mute? I can't get any sound
[11:15] <z0r1> Alright thanks
[11:15] <chucky> z0r1 - http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/get.html
[11:16] <uXp> anyone here?
[11:16] <mwe> chucky: firefox is not by chance misconfigured in the settings?
[11:16] <uXp> CAN ANYONE SEE THIS?
[11:16] <Cntryboy> uxp yah
[11:16] <chucky> yup
[11:16] <mwe> eXistenZ: huh :)
[11:16] <Commander-Crowe> uXp: yes
[11:16] <Nekow42> uXp: Indeed
[11:16] <chucky> i dont think its misconfiged
[11:16] <mwe> uXp: We see you  :)
[11:16] <uXp> ok, wasn't sure if i existed, thought inetert was laggin or osmething
[11:17] <uXp> internet
[11:17] <chucky> its on direct connection to the internet in connection settings
[11:17] <Cntryboy> anyone have a clue to my probs?
[11:17] <Commander-Crowe> correct grammer please
[11:17] <Commander-Crowe> lol
[11:17] <uXp> you know where it takes minutes to disconnect till then no1 see you typing or what not
[11:17] <mwe> chucky: and you have a plain setup?
[11:17] <chucky> fresh install
[11:17] <Commander-Crowe> grammar*
[11:18] <mwe> chucky: I mean your internet connection. it's not behind a weird proxy or sth?
[11:18] <chucky> all i want is for it to play divx and avi
[11:18] <Nekow42> Commander-Crowe: Please use spelling good!!!
[11:18] <Aesop> Ok, X refyses to star, says 'cannot open device /dev/input/mice"? Any suggestions on where else my mouse might have gone?
[11:18] <chucky> nope just a simple wireless router
[11:18] <Jack_Sparrow> I am pissed at a programmer that created a gdesklet called workspace switcher.  I did not intend to install it and I cant get it off my desktop,  I even tried looking the app up by name and by author in gdesklets and his name and the prgoram names were not found
[11:18] <Commander-Crowe> Nekow42: lol I will\
[11:18] <chucky> but im connecting to it using ethernet
[11:18] <mwe> chucky: I'm afraid I'm out of ideas
[11:18] <Mastro> commander: can you tell me a link where find a complete guide to the initial parameters for linux? (like "vga=771" or "noacpi" etc.. where it explain the meaning and when to use it?)
[11:18] <chucky> thats about where i am
[11:18] <chucky> i think it maybe either a dns issue with the router
[11:19] <Commander-Crowe> 1SCPI
[11:19] <Cntryboy> Anyone know why kaffeine has a slash through the speaker and it's not on mute? I can't get any sound
[11:19] <Commander-Crowe> !acpi
[11:19] <ubotu> I know nothing about acpi - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:19] <mwe> chucky: you can ping so not dns
[11:19] <chucky> or a problem with the other computers on my network screwing up my connection
[11:19] <Aesop> ubotu tell aesop about xorg
[11:19] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: Google knows as much as I do
[11:19] <Cntryboy> la la la la la
[11:19] <Cntryboy> guess ill sing
[11:19] <mwe> chucky: the odd thing is you can ping ok
[11:19] <chucky> i do have about 15 b0x's on the network
[11:19] <Commander-Crowe> !xorg
[11:19] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:19] <Aesop> Nope, that was useless. >.>
[11:19] <Mastro> Aesop: i was having the same problem with debian some times a go.. fixed reconfiguring the kernel and recompiling it
[11:19] <chucky> yeah but pings that high are unusual
[11:20] <Aesop> Mastro: HOw does one recompile the kernal?
[11:20] <chucky> i am on 8mb adsl
[11:20] <dli> Mastro, install kernel source ( apt-get install linux-source), unpack the kernel tree, read Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
[11:20] <Cntryboy> rah rah rah rah rahhhhhhhhhh rah rah rah
[11:20] <Commander-Crowe> Aesop: with another OS
[11:20] <Commander-Crowe> !google
[11:20] <Cntryboy> dang ppl, no one knows why I can't get sound in kaffeine video player?
[11:20] <ubotu> google is a very popular search engine, http://www.google.com
[11:20] <Cntryboy> 800 ppls and im sure someone has had that prob
[11:20] <mwe> chucky: i get response times of about 100ms on 2mbit
[11:20] <dli> Aesop, to build your own kernel, ask dpkg about kernel-package in #debian
[11:20] <Mastro> dli: tnx.. lol :) it was simple!
[11:20] <Commander-Crowe> Cntryboy: missing codecs
[11:21] <Cntryboy> which codecs?
[11:21] <Cntryboy> vlc and xmm plays fine
[11:21] <Commander-Crowe> w32
[11:21] <ucordes> how do i make an image of my ubuntu so i can have it restored when my system crashes?
[11:21] <Aesop> dli: I have no desire to actually do that =P I just want to figure out where my mouse went
[11:21] <Cntryboy> I have w32 codecs
[11:21] <z0r1> Is pastebin down?
[11:21] <Commander-Crowe> gstreemers
[11:21] <Aesop> dli: Recompiling the kernal was suggested as a fix
[11:21] <RawSewage>  I cant get sound back on YouTube.  I touched a volume control on it, and now, no sound.  Anyone know how to fix this
[11:21] <chucky> 118ms to google
[11:21] <Cntryboy> I don't have libxine-extracodecs
[11:21] <Cntryboy> would I need those?
[11:21] <Gullstad> Whats the FTP port?
[11:21] <zth> hello. how can i control my USB? i've plugged my camera in to it but can't get it to be detected
[11:21] <z0r1> Well Pastebin.ca works fine so...
[11:21] <Commander-Crowe> Cntryboy: yes
[11:21] <z0r1> I tried installing EasyUbuntu and got this: http://pastebin.ca/92733
[11:21] <mwe> ucordes: partimage is an option
[11:22] <Aesop> zth: If it uses the PTP protocol, I don't think it will work
[11:22] <dli> Aesop, the current 2.6.15 release (dapper) sucks, upgrade to 2.6.17
[11:22] <Mastro> ok guys.. tnx anyway.. i will try the "noacpi etc.." option and then if it doesn't work i will try to figure out myself :D
[11:22] <z0r1> It looks like something to do w/ it not being able to lock some files doewn or something
[11:22] <zth> Aesop, it doesn't, i've used this camera before but that was before dapper
[11:22] <chucky> and what do i do to stop it pinging
[11:22] <Commander-Crowe> dli: Ubuntu does it already though
[11:22] <Cntryboy> commander-crowe: I tried to get them through apt-get but it's not in my repos I guess
[11:22] <chucky> it just keeps going and going and going
[11:22] <z0r1> Nm I got it fixed... it was because I had synaptic open
[11:22] <Commander-Crowe> try synpatic
[11:22] <Cntryboy> i did
[11:22] <Cntryboy> its edept for me
[11:22] <Mastro> dli: can i really upgrade the kernel?
[11:22] <mwe> chucky: I get 123 to google I think it's fine
[11:22] <Cntryboy> adept
[11:23] <Bartsk8> Hi
[11:23] <chucky> this is so odd
[11:23] <chucky> it makes no sence
[11:23] <zth> It's a Canon G3, anyone know how for me to get it to work?
[11:23] <Commander-Crowe> did you go into repertories and add universe and multiverse?
[11:23] <Mastro> dli: becouse of debian last kernel supported was the 2.6.15
[11:23] <z0r1> Wow
[11:23] <dli> Mastro, no need to use debian kernel, build your own
[11:23] <z0r1> EasyUbuntu rocks
[11:23] <Aesop> dli: Right... You make that sound easy. I don't suppose I can use apt-get for that?
[11:23] <chucky> how do i stop it pinging?
[11:24] <Bartsk8> Does anybody know how can i reduce the space between the icons ?
[11:24] <Nekow42> z0r1: Did it help you out?
[11:24] <Mastro> dli: ok tnx.. :D
[11:24] <chucky> i can start but how to stop without closing the terminal
[11:24] <mwe> chucky: ctrl-c
[11:24] <Nekow42> chucky: ctrl:c, perhaps?
[11:24] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: or specify the number of pings before you start
[11:24] <Mastro> bye everyone...
[11:24] <Mastro> :D
[11:24] <Commander-Crowe> Mastro: bye
[11:24] <Cntryboy> commander-crowe: I thought I had multi enabled
[11:24] <Commander-Crowe> you need both
[11:25] <Cntryboy> commander-crowe: how can I do that just for the libxine-extracodecs?
[11:25] <z0r1> Nekow almost ...
[11:25] <eXistenZ> How can I untar bz2 files?
[11:25] <Commander-Crowe> you can't really
[11:25] <mwe> isn't this odd, I can only ping with sudo.
[11:25] <gr33npho3nix> eXistenZ: tar -xjf
[11:25] <Wiseguy> hey guys i burnt a dvd and now im trying to make it into an iso again, is there anyway to do this with dd?
[11:25] <Cntryboy> commander-crowe: care to help me get my repo working then?
[11:25] <mwe> as normal user it says "ping: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted"
[11:25] <mwe> really odd
[11:26] <chucky> im going to go round the house and turn off all the other machines and see if thats the problem
[11:26] <mwe> I don't know when this happened
[11:26] <Commander-Crowe> Cntryboy : I'll try
[11:26] <Jack_Sparrow> zth: try digikam
[11:26] <m_0_r_0_n> Hi, for compiling an old opengl application I do need the X11 library (-lX11 -lXi -lXmu) . Any idea what dev-package I have to install?
[11:26] <Commander-Crowe> I'm still new to this
[11:26] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: does it work as sudo?
[11:26] <z0r1> I just checked everything (because I want everything) and now i get this error when trying to run everything .... "Could not download all repository indexes" and then there are two files .. Which are http://packages.freecontrib.org/plf/dists/dapper/free/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found and the "non-free" one also
[11:26] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: yes
[11:26] <Bartsk8> Does anybody know how can i reduce the space between the icons ?
[11:26] <z0r1> Anyone know how I can hack this up and fix it?
[11:26] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: it's weird
[11:26] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: ping has lost setuid
[11:26] <Commander-Crowe> Bartsk8: try desktop background
[11:26] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: installing bastille can do that
[11:26] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: I used to be able to ping as user
[11:27] <chucky> z0r1: just do each one individually
[11:27] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: should it be suid root?
[11:27] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: sudo chmor u+s `which ping`
[11:27] <chucky> i know its a pain but it failed on me in the same way about 4 hours ago
[11:27] <Bartsk8> Commander-Crowe : Hum ?
[11:27] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: is yours suid root?
[11:27] <gr33npho3nix> i guess so, i just no that happened to my machine when basitle removed setuid
[11:27] <trappist> s/chmor/chmod/
[11:27] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: or when iptables blocked absolutely everything
[11:27] <Bartsk8> Commander-Crowe : The isn't any options about icons the desktop background manager
[11:27] <z0r1> chucky I still get the error
[11:28] <Commander-Crowe> I see that
[11:28] <gr33npho3nix> but then root couldn't do it
[11:28] <kazukisan> Why when i did a apt get all the compiz xgl stuff did my Direct Rendering Turn off ???????
[11:28] <gr33npho3nix> thanks trappist
[11:28] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: I wonder how that happened though
[11:28] <chucky> i have no idea mate
[11:28] <chucky> sorry
[11:28] <Tommy2k4> how can i find out what device dm-1 is when trying to boot to livecd
[11:28] <z0r1> well if I click ok or w/e it continues to download stuff and it looks like it's installing
[11:28] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: mine is setuid root
[11:28] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: can you ls -l $(which ping) to confirm it's suid root?
[11:28] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: ok
[11:28] <gr33npho3nix> i just did
[11:28] <z0r1> Does anyone know why EasyUbuntu isn't working right now?  I'm getting a 404 on that file I pasted up there ^^

[11:29] <z0r1> Thank you jack
[11:29] <mwe> gr33npho3nix: I'm not fond of making things setuid root. but I guess ping should be then. I still wonder how it happened
[11:29] <livingdaylight> msg nickserv register diamond99
[11:29] <livingdaylight> shit!
[11:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ha
[11:29] <gr33npho3nix> mwe: no clue, but you don't have to
[11:30] <gr33npho3nix> all you have to do is append sudo to yoru ping command
[11:30] <gr33npho3nix> its needs access as root so you have a choice howto do it
[11:30] <mwe> yeah
[11:30] <tmccrary> lo.,
[11:30] <tmccrary> lol
[11:30] <trappist> gr33npho3nix: prepend :)
[11:31] <AngryElf> dmesg -> seg fault.....errr? :(
[11:31] <livingdaylight> Ubuntu Rocks!
[11:31] <trappist> AngryElf: sounds bad
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> if i dl the kubuntu alternative cd will it still install the same stuff as the livecd
[11:31] <uXp> anyone here use TeamSpeak?!
[11:31] <AngryElf> doesn't dmesg just 'cat someFile'?
[11:31] <livingdaylight> is Ubuntu an African word?
[11:31] <gr33npho3nix> trappist: prepend?
[11:31] <trappist> AngryElf: no

[11:34] <cius> trev__, no point, if you've already got it installed, don't worry about it
[11:35] <trappist> trev__: it's probably about the same.  maybe a little faster or slower depending on hardware, configuration, etc.

[11:42] <primal> i have a question concerning switching graphics cards
[11:42] <trappist> dwf: if you're logged in and you're viewing the bug in question and you're subscribed to it, there is
[11:42] <sherwin> any1 know a good site to dl themes ?
[11:42] <trappist> johan_: I'm pretty sure that's what easytag is for - but I use amaroK for that (it's also a great player)
[11:42] <dwf> I'm in the "also notified" list
[11:42] <jbanck> hallo
[11:42] <Nekow42> sherwin: gnomelook
[11:42] <jbanck> hall
[11:43] <Cntryboy> jrib: http://pastebin.com/752550
[11:43] <trappist> johan_: amaroK also has a musicbrainz interface to auto-tag songs based on an audio-fingerprint
[11:43] <johan_> trappist: I did like Amarok, but it's a little to "bloated" for me. Not bloated really but too much features and to messy interface
[11:43] <sherwin> nekow cheers i was on this ages ago but could never remember what it was
[11:43] <leks> hey guys im gettin errors when cp files with umlauts
[11:43] <soundray> johan_: that sounds like the definition of "bloated" to me
[11:44] <primal> i've currently got a geforce mx4000 graphics card and i've got a slightly newer (still old though) ati card that i'd like to replace it with
[11:44] <leks> on a vfat drive
[11:44] <leks> what could be wrong?
[11:44] <Nekow42> sherwin: The exact addy is http://www.gnome-look.org/
[11:44] <hivemind> !resolution
[11:44] <sherwin> yea i googled it
[11:44] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:44] <sherwin> cheers
[11:44] <primal> i'd like to know what i need to do to switch cards
[11:44] <primal> i think i need to change a setting somewhere to vesa
[11:44] <johan_> soundray: maybe. but it isn't as bloated as windows for example.
[11:44] <Aesop> I've heard that Automatix 'breaks' Ubuntu- what's the deal?
[11:44] <soundray> !automatix

[11:44] <mwe> primal: well open the case and take the old one out and put in the new one
[11:45] <Aesop> Right
[11:45] <mwe> primal: then install the ati driver instead
[11:45] <soundray> Aesop: try easyubuntu, it's better
[11:45] <Dial_tone> breaks in what way
[11:45] <soundray> !easyubuntu

[11:45] <primal> but what about the config file somewhere?
[11:45] <UFUK> selam
[11:45] <dwf> trapp: How do I get off the "also notified" list
[11:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Aesop: the warning USE AT YOUR OWN RISK says it all.
[11:45] <ucordes> what is the difference between xchat and xchat-gnome?

[11:45] <Aesop> Jack_Sparrow: Everything OSS has that
[11:45] <erUSUL> primal: change cards and the boot in recovery mode and run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[11:45] <mwe> primal: you need to install the ati driver then change the driver to fglrx in xorg.conf
[11:45] <adamlaz> diddnt spybot say 'use at your own risk?
[11:46] <Dial_tone> ucordes, some visual changes
[11:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Aesop: You can believe in this one
[11:46] <adamlaz> that program was too easy to use
[11:46] <ucordes> Dial_tome: like improvemenst or rather useless addons?
[11:46] <Cntryboy> jrib: u here man?
[11:46] <dwf> I _hate_ launchpad. Argh.
[11:46] <ucordes> Dial_tone: *
[11:46] <jrib> Cntryboy: yeah, the page is loading (I'm downloading some stuff too)
[11:47] <Cntryboy> yah pastebin is super sucky lately, even pastebin.ca
[11:47] <Jack_Sparrow> An improvement for one person is a useless addon to another.
[11:47] <Dial_tone> thats in the eye of the beholder, I guess
[11:47] <ucordes> ok :-)
[11:47] <jrib> Cntryboy: want to use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[11:47] <Cntryboy> k js
[11:47] <primal> i had to write all that down really quick
[11:47] <dwf> Does ANYONE know how to get off the "Also notified" list on the bug tracker?
[11:47] <primal> that's all i need to do?
[11:47] <dron> hi, how could i open attachments directly from evolution? for example with openoffice? evolution only geaves me option to save attachment but not to open directly
[11:47] <dwf> Christ, it's more difficult than getting a passport
[11:47] <primal> one more question before i actually restart...
[11:48] <primal> how do i boot in safe mode?
[11:48] <primal> er, recovery mode
[11:48] <Aesop> primal: It'll ask what you want to boot into when the computer turns on
[11:48] <soundray> primal: it's usually the second option in the grub menu
[11:48] <primal> oh, okay. easy enough then
[11:48] <primal> thanks guys
[11:49] <Aesop> Recovery mode is very useful, for example when you break xorg really bad but have no idea how
[11:49] <Rikkimaru_> How can I run a command before the Xserver starts?
[11:49] <primal> i'll come back on the other side to let you know how it went
[11:49] <primal> thanks all. i'll keep that in minde aesop
[11:49] <Cntryboy> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18386
[11:50] <Cntryboy> jrib: there ya go ^
[11:50] <erf> Hey, is there anyway to set the amount of users allowed on a vnc server?
[11:50] <Rikkimaru_> How can I run a command before X starts on boot?
[11:50] <jrib> Cntryboy: heh pastebin.com loaded at exactly the same time you pasted that.  Are you using dapper now?
[11:50] <Mysta> hello, i just installed ubuntu 606 server install, and I need to downgrade to php4 from php5. Can I just apt-get remove php5 packages, and then apt-get install php4 packages?
[11:51] <Cntryboy> yes
[11:51] <jrib> Cntryboy: ok you have a warty line on line 35, get rid of it
[11:51] <Cntryboy> i know I have that
[11:51] <soundray> Rikkimaru_: add it to /etc/rc.local
[11:51] <Cntryboy> but its not hurting nothing so i left it
[11:52] <jrib> Cntryboy: k, add "multiverse" to the end of lines 16 and 17
[11:52] <Rikkimaru_> soundray: much thanks.
[11:52] <jrib> Cntryboy: erm 17 and 18, not 16 and 17
[11:52] <Cntryboy> well the one im looking at
[11:52] <Cntryboy> starts it 18-19
[11:52] <Cntryboy> the deb one?
[11:53] <Cntryboy> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe
[11:53] <Cntryboy>  deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe
[11:53] <jrib> Cntryboy: yes
[11:53] <Cntryboy> those?
[11:53] <anosa> can anyone tell me weather update url??
[11:53] <Cntryboy> give me example of how it should look
[11:53] <Cntryboy> with multi added
[11:53] <Aesop> Ok, how do I totally reinstall X?
[11:53] <Aesop> Via command line
[11:53] <jrib> Cntryboy: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse
[11:53] <Cntryboy> kk didn't know about quotes js
[11:53] <kbrooks> Aesop: uh
[11:53] <Cntryboy> let me add it
[11:54] <devhen> Aesop, you can use synaptic, mark all of the X packages for reinstallation
[11:54] <Aesop> I assume Aptitude will work the same way, DeeJay[2] 
[11:54] <Aesop> er

[11:54] <sexcopter8000m> hi, is it possible to get the ubuntu weekly newsletter as an rss or similar feed?
[11:54] <z0r1> does ubuntu not support WPA wireless encryption?
[11:55] <Cntryboy> jrib: do I need to update source list?
[11:55] <Cntryboy> after its done?
[11:55] <johan_> Will I gain much speed if I compile my own kernel with the ck-patches?
[11:55] <jrib> Cntryboy: yep, sudo apt-get update
[11:55] <Cntryboy> k
[11:56] <soundray> johan_: probably not
[11:56] <devhen> Aesop, never used aptitude but id assume it would work all the same
[11:56] <johan_> soundray: so they are basicly made because it always sounds nice to have a megaoptimized super duper fast custom kernel?
[11:56] <Aesop> devhen; My problem is that I can't -start- X, so using synaptic is a bit tricky
[11:57] <ScatterBrain> Can someone tell  me how to control the order that modules load in initrd?
[11:57] <johan_> Aesop: I think aptitude is like synaptic but commandline
[11:57] <Mysta> anyone
[11:57] <Cntryboy> jrib: thx man
[11:57] <jrib> Cntryboy: np
[11:57] <soundray> johan_: generally, if you have a performance problem, the kernel is not the first thing to think about
[11:58] <Cntryboy> so my multiverse wasn't enabled? how was I able to download so much stuff lately?
[11:58] <Rikkimaru_> Is there a fairly comprehensive list of debain repos somewhere?
[11:58] <soundray> johan_: find out where the bottleneck is first.
[11:59] <johan_> soundray: not the kernel but what? window manager? I don't really know if I have less performance than I should, it just feels slower than when I installed it 3 weeks ago (I reinstalled it today but it feels slow)
[11:59] <soundray> Rikkimaru_: www.apt-get.org perhaps
[11:59] <Cntryboy> jrib:^
[12:00] <erf> is there anyway to set the amount of users allowed on a vnc server?
[12:00] <zth> anyone....? usb on ubuntu? how to detect/administer?
[12:00] <soundray> johan_: perceptions can be misleading. What kind of system are you running on?
[12:00] <jrib> Cntryboy: you had main, restricted, and universe
[12:00] <zorglub> hello, I'm looking for the location of the ubuntu customizations to the default Qt4 plastique theme
