[12:00] <b0nn> HI all, Im trying to serve a php5 file from my ubuntu box, but apache wont serve it, instead it asks me to download the file, classic
[12:00] <McNutella> is there anything I can change to stop it fading the screen when ubuntu asks for a password, its annoying me.
[12:01] <JUDGE_> pike_:  ahh nice
[12:01] <alek_in> hello!
[12:01] <JUDGE_> ty
[12:01] <Vilkacis> What do I do if Ubuntu hangs after booting the kernel? It just freezes there and won't do anything.
[12:01] <b0nn> I want apache2 to serve the file as Ive just installed libapache-mod-php5
[12:01] <shadeofgrey> whats the package fior lame called ardchoille?
[12:01] <Shak-> b0nn: try restarting apache?
[12:01] <b0nn> But apache 1.3 is getting in the way
[12:01] <Evan_> DLi i wont wok after i did what i just said and reboot it loads  grub console again
[12:01] <krism> b0nn: did you restart apache?
[12:01] <ForeClosure> yay
[12:01] <Grok_> vilkacis: try addng acpi=off to the line wen you boot up
[12:01] <b0nn> several times
[12:02] <amaia> JUDGE_: i have installed the pptpconfig which is great, but the connection doesn't work :(
[12:02] <pike_> Vilkacis: can you dorescue mode
[12:02] <DiKKy> Hi i need help mounting my miniSD memory card into my laptops card reader, accoring to /var/log/messages it detects the card beeing mounted and it registers the new device as pcmcia0.0, the card may be unformatted as i just bought it, how do i make use of it can anyone help?
[12:02] <krism> b0nn: did you set up php to handle whatever extension the file has?
[12:02] <JUDGE_> pike_: still waiting for the comp to stop laggin
[12:02] <dli> Evan_, I mean, boot manually
[12:02] <ardchoille> shadeofgrey: it's called  lame
[12:02] <Zooliegsm> if i wrote mount point to / it mounted to root fs or what?couse my linux partition is mounted to /
[12:02] <b0nn> the file has .php as the extension
[12:02] <JUDGE_> amaia: what is pptpconfig?
[12:02] <Grok_> vilkacis: i had to do that to even get it to install and had to add it to grub as well after it was installed
[12:02] <jrib> b0nn: did you enable the php mod?
[12:02] <shadeofgrey> ardchoille:  yes i uunderstand but theres no package with that specific name in synaptic..  the only thing close is glame -- is that the same thing or no?
[12:02] <matthew_w> !ntfs
[12:02] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[12:02] <b0nn> but the problem is... apache 1.3 is serving the file... not apache2
[12:03] <krism> b0nn: uninstall apache 1.3 if you want 2 to serve it.
[12:03] <Evan_> Dli how do you mean?
[12:03] <pike_> JUDGE_: also check and see if you can ping the ip and just not name your dns server you be entered in /etc/resolv.conf
[12:03] <ardchoille> shadeofgrey: it's in multiverse repo
[12:03] <amaia> JUDGE_: a program to configure vpn connections that i found on the guide, how you recommended
[12:03] <Vilkacis> pike_: Rescue mode does the same thing.
[12:03] <Zooliegsm> if i wrote mount point to / it mounted to root fs or what?couse my linux partition is mounted to /
[12:03] <Vilkacis> Grok_: I'll try added that. One sec.
[12:03] <Grok_> k
[12:03] <dli> Evan_, if you know your kernel name, type in grub commands to boot
[12:03] <alek_in> hello! Everytime I'm trying to install something ubuntu asks me for new things, and I don't have an internet connection. I'm writting the programs in a CD, go home, try to install them, aaaand errors! do you know where I can get a huge packet or what should I do
[12:03] <alek_in> ?!
[12:04] <ardchoille> shadeofgrey: No, you need lame, it's an mp3 encoder.. enable multiverse, do sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get install lame
[12:04] <shadeofgrey> ardchoille:  can you give me a precise example of the install command?  (apt-get install lame  ???)
[12:04] <amaia> JUDGE_: i configured it but it doesnt connect: "Unkown MS-CHAP authentication failure"
[12:04] <leagris> ir
[12:04] <pike_> Vilkacis: acpi=off might be a good idea
[12:04] <shadeofgrey> ah okay
[12:04] <b0nn> now nothing is being served (unable to connect)
[12:04] <Vilkacis> Grok_: Where do I add it? To the end, after Boot, or on the same line as kernel?
[12:04] <Tommy2k4> when i boot up it tries to open sendmail even though ive apt-get remove sendmail, rm /etc/init.d/sendmail, update-rc.d sendmail remove
[12:04] <shadeofgrey> thank yuou
[12:04] <JUDGE_> amaia:  i was reading the guide and remembered something along those lines that might help you.. unfortunatly.. I have never tried it.
[12:04] <krism> b0nn: install apache2.
[12:04] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[12:04] <dli> Evan_, root (hd0,0)
[12:04] <b0nn> it *is* installed

[12:05] <Vilkacis> Grok_: Where do I put acpi=off? Do I make a new line or do I add it to the end of the kernel statement?
[12:05] <Zibii> hi

[12:05] <linux_user400354> how can i make a fat16 instead of fat32? i have an option to create a vfat filesystem. i believe that is fat32.
[12:05] <amaia> no, the opposite
[12:06] <amaia> im running ubuntu on my laptop
[12:06] <krism> b0nn: that's why it's not serving anything. what error did it give when attempting to start it?
[12:06] <JUDGE_> oh.. one sec..
[12:06] <ardchoille> Vilkacis: end of the kernel line
[12:06] <dli> Evan_, sorry, initrd /initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
[12:06] <amaia> and need to connect to a remote network using a windows server
[12:06] <Imme> Is JRE a restricted repository?
[12:06] <dli> Evan_, boot
[12:06] <Warbo> linux_user400354: vfat is FAT32 with a virtual layer of long filenames on top (I think)
[12:06] <b0nn> nothing

[12:06] <JUDGE_> amai
[12:06] <Imme-emosol> jrib, yup
[12:06] <b0nn> I started it with /usr/sbin/apache2
[12:06] <krism> b0nn: did you try restarting it after removing apache 1.3?
[12:06] <Grok_> vilkcis: to the end of the line. i lso took off the "showgui" or whatever the two extra commnds on the end re so that way i could see the system messges as it booted up
[12:06] <JUDGE_> amaia:  did you read this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_connect_into_remote_Ubuntu_desktop_via_Windows_machine

[12:06] <krism> b0nn: that is not how you start it.
[12:07] <Imme-emosol> :P
[12:07] <b0nn> and its running... but... trying to get me to download the php file
[12:07] <jrib> Imme-emosol: the bot send you some info, you need the multiverse repository, but the wiki should explain that
[12:07] <krism> b0nn: i thought you said it wasn't serving anything.
[12:07] <Vilkacis> Grok_: Still hangs.
[12:07] <b0nn> right.. to recap...

[12:07] <cpk1> ljl: any idea on what to reconfigure debconf to do?
[12:07] <b0nn> yes
[12:07] <b0nn> several times
[12:07] <dli> Evan_, if you are not sure about the kernel names, try: find /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386
[12:08] <Grok_> vilkacis: i'm tapped then. that was the fix for my system...yours must have other issues
[12:08] <krism> b0nn: is it listed in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled ?
[12:08] <cpk1> ljl: i heard another suggestion to comment out the wacom entries in xorg.conf but would rather not play with xorg
[12:08] <b0nn> no Ive just linked it now
[12:08] <LjL> cpk1: well the first question is should ask you is "What interface should be used for configuring packages?", and if KDE or Gnome is selected, that'd be the problem -- select "Dialog" instead. if it's already selected, then i don't know what the culprit would be
[12:08] <dli> alek_in, try debian, download 3 DVD (or 9 CDs), then, you have all you need

[12:11] <amaia> ok, txs
[12:11] <krism> b0nn: how did that happen? what do you mean "broken"?

[12:11] <ForeClosure> do i lost my connection to IRC as well ?
[12:11] <b0nn> by broken I mean it doesnt start apache2
[12:11] <krism> b0nn: i repeat, you cannot start apache2 in the manner you attempted.

[12:12] <matthew_w> Hey - I have windows on /dev/hda1 and ubuntu + swap on /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda3 respectively - can I format /dev/hda1 without destroying ubuntu if /dev/hda1 is not mounted, even though they are on the same HDD?
[12:12] <ardchoille> ForeClosure: That depends on the irc client you are using.
[12:12] <lampshade> how can I find out what drivers my network card(that seems to be working) is actually using?  (pcmcia card)  I'm just curious what Linux/Ubuntu loaded for it

[12:12] <ardchoille> yes, you'll lose your irc connection
[12:12] <erUSUL> matthew_w: yes
[12:12] <dli> matthew_w, yes, you can delete /dev/hda1, without touching /dev/hda2 (/dev/hda3)
[12:13] <matthew_w> erUSUL; so, how would I do it?  use gparted or so?
[12:13] <dli> matthew_w, but how to add the space of /dev/hda1 to /dev/hda3 is tricky
[12:13] <Imme-emosol> Is JDK free software?
[12:13] <snikker> devhen: i've already installed alsa-oss, but don't work :(
[12:13] <matthew_w> dli; here's all I wanted to do;
[12:13] <matthew_w> dli; I have windows/ubuntu/swap I want slackware/ubuntu/swap
[12:13] <matthew_w> still ok?
[12:13] <erUSUL> matthew_w: yes you can use gparted. what do you want to do? you can format the partition dorectly from comandline
[12:14] <matthew_w> or even slackware/swap/ubuntu/swap if necessary
[12:14] <devhen> snikker, hmm. i'd recommend searching the ubuntu forums
[12:14] <dli> matthew_w, then, it's quite obivious, try, gparted
[12:14] <matthew_w> Do I need to make a second swap?
[12:14] <kbrooks> no
[12:14] <devhen> matthew_w: you should be able to set the swap part as swap for both OSs
[12:14] <dli> matthew_w, no, because you don't boot them both
[12:14] <kbrooks> you CAN use 1 swap file/partition
[12:15] <Evan_> Dli can you do that in grub kernel
[12:15] <snikker> devhen: ok, i'll do it...
[12:15] <erUSUL> matthew_w: mkfs.ext3 -O dir_index /dev/hda1
[12:15] <Imme-emosol> kbrooks, no > imme ?

[12:39] <Gullstad> How manage groups in therminal?
[12:39] <cpk1> ljl: i still get some spam when i open a gui as root though it seems
[12:39] <matthew_w> I just cleared the partition out of /dev/hda1, and created an ext3fs in its ashes.  Now it says 768 MB of the disk are used, but there's nothing there.
[12:40] <cpk1> Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[12:40] <matthew_w> Furthermore, gparted says 40.4 GB should be free, Nautilus says 38.2 GB are free.
[12:40] <mwe> Khaaaaan: what kind of card? using a linux driver or ndiswrapper?
[12:40] <LjL> cpk1: try using kdesu or gsudo (or whatever the gnome thing is called) instead of sudo
[12:40] <dli> LjL, /etc/security/limits.conf
[12:40] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It is a Linksys wpc54G with ndiswrapper
[12:41] <matthew_w> Why is that happening?
[12:41] <Khaaaaan> So far I have it detecting the hardware and the drivers loaded

[12:41] <Khaaaaan> I have the power light on :)
[12:41] <dli> matthew_w, ext3 reserves inode tables
[12:41] <mwe> Khaaaaan: so what does dmesg say the interface name ndis gives it is?
[12:42] <dli> matthew_w, jfs uses dynamic inode tables, it should show like 0.0% used
[12:42] <mwe> Khaaaaan: and are you use wpa or wep?
[12:42] <Khaaaaan> mwe: what do you mean?
[12:42] <Khaaaaan> I am using wep

[12:44] <cpk1> ljl: i dont think my fix worked out quite how I wanted it to, everytime i open firefox my mouse stops working
[12:44] <RawSewage> no one is talking
[12:44] <caribou7> Anyone have experience with wake-on-lan?
[12:44] <mwe> why does ubuntu have such crappy code names :)
[12:44] <RawSewage> I was just casually asking, anyway
[12:44] <dooglus> RawSewage: people are using edgy, of course.  what's your real question?
[12:44] <RawSewage> what does knot mean
[12:44] <mwe> Khaaaaan: did you figure the name?
[12:44] <RawSewage> eek ?
[12:44] <LjL> cpk1: uh, whops
[12:44] <dooglus> RawSewage: 'knot' is when you tie something, like your shoe laces
[12:44] <RawSewage> lol
[12:45] <eon_> ahoy
[12:45] <Khaaaaan> mwe: No... I am not to sure what I am looking for, however, I do see something here about how the "loaded firmware doesnt work well with this driver"
[12:45] <RawSewage> Edgy Eft Knot One
[12:45] <mwe> Khaaaaan: that's not good.
[12:45] <eon_> Sound was working great on my notebook until I did some updates and now sound is REALLY QUIET
[12:45] <dooglus> RawSewage: Knot is to Edgy like Flight was to Dapper
[12:45] <eon_> any ideas?
[12:45] <Khaaaaan> mwe: No it isn't...
[12:45] <mwe> Khaaaaan: did you follow a guide for your card or something?
[12:45] <RawSewage> dooglus, I dont get Flight
[12:46] <RawSewage> what was the joke with Flight
[12:46] <joedou> can anyone please help me, i have found some information on my wireless card but don't know what to do now :(
[12:46] <dooglus> RawSewage: a dapper flight is an alpha of dapper; an edgy knot is an alpha of edgy
[12:46] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Yes sir... however I ran into some difficulty when it got towards the end, also the steps I followed were for Breezy
[12:46] <matthew_w> also, if a filesystem has a "needs_recovery" flag, what does that mean?
[12:46] <Warbo> RawSewage: Like Beta, but before Beta (should be called Alpha really...)
[12:46] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I can post a link if you want...
[12:46] <RawSewage> No, I mean whats the joke
[12:46] <RawSewage> Dapper Flight?
[12:46] <dooglus> RawSewage: newts live in knots, apparently
[12:46] <mwe> Khaaaaan: yes, what kind of problems. and yes let me see the url and tell me what problems you got
[12:46] <RawSewage> dooglus, oh, ty
[12:47] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay let me get the link here...
[12:47] <matthew_w> Also, I get the "device is busy" message when trying to unmount, is there a way to see which processes are using the filesystem?
[12:47] <RawSewage> So what was the joke with Dapper Flight
[12:47] <Warbo> RawSewage: Dapper Drake=Fancy Looking Duck, which flies
[12:47] <RawSewage> ok
[12:47] <RawSewage> that one's a bit obscure
[12:47] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Here is the link to the directions I followed:
[12:47] <Khaaaaan> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201633
[12:47] <Rikkimaru> What would you all suggest I use to easily configure wireless networks?
[12:48] <dooglus> RawSewage: everyone knows that drakes fly, don't they?  I'd have said that 'eft == newt == lives in a knot" is much more obscure
[12:48] <Khaaaaan> mwe: As you can see, towards the end it gets kind of whacky... my output for cardctl ident does not match his
[12:48] <RawSewage> dooglus, I guess
[12:48] <RawSewage> but Im enlightened now
[12:48] <Warbo> dooglus: I thought it might be a reference to Edgy being edgy, and as it develops it gets more confused and knotted :)
[12:48] <matthew_w> I don't get this "needs recovery" flag.
[12:49] <Warbo> matthew_w: It initiates a scan at the next boot
[12:49] <micahf> hey guys
[12:49] <RawSewage> Edgy is edgy.  bleeding edge tech
[12:49] <matthew_w> Warbo; is that it?
[12:49] <mwe> Khaaaaan: is your card pcmcia?
[12:49] <RawSewage> XGL, etc
[12:49] <micahf> any idea why my keyboard would have just stopped working?
[12:49] <Warbo> matthew_w: Basically
[12:49] <jbower> any one have an idea why ubuntu will not let me shutdown or open termal or do sudo form command line
[12:49] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yes sir
[12:49] <micahf> my USB just STOPPED working
[12:49] <matthew_w> Also, is there a huge difference between ext2fs and ext3fs that wouldn't let me make LFS successfully?
[12:49] <mud> Hey guys, need some gcc help
[12:49] <dooglus> Warbo: I just looked it up - apparently it's not where they live, it's how they have group sex (?)
[12:50] <dooglus> A male that has found a partner may be joined by other hopefuls, forming what is known as a newt knot. Newts are not at all shy about the process; mating can take place in broad daylight, in front of God and everybody.
[12:50] <micahf> I rebooted my computer, now it's GONE
[12:50] <Warbo> matthew_w: Ext3==Ext2+Journal
[12:50] <dli> jbower, pastebin the error messages
[12:50] <nn_> wher does the grub stage files go when installing grub pkg? I need to copy them to theappropriate place
[12:50] <Warbo> matthew_w: You can mount ext3 as ext2 if you want
[12:50] <mud> By looking at my system, I can see that I have gcc, gcc 3.3, gcc 3,4 and gcc 4.0 installed..
[12:50] <dooglus> Warbo: http://www.berkeleydaily.org/rediscover.cfm?archiveDate=01-09-04
[12:50] <RawSewage> dooglus, lol
[12:50] <mwe> Khaaaaan: so cardctl ident gives you what? nothing like that? of course the manfid would propbably be different
[12:50] <nn_> or better yet, how do i list all the files that came from an installed package?
[12:51] <mud> The progtram that I am trying to compile needs to use gcc3.3, I dont know why.. but it will only compile with 3.3
[12:51] <Khaaaaan> mwe: My output was the same as that Zodiac dudes
 this is no error, it just will not run any apps that run higher then user like termanl and sudo
[12:51] <nn_> mud that sounds like an issue of poor coding ;)
[12:51] <Warbo> dooglus: "Ubuntu 6.10 - The Sexy Newt" has a certain ring to it :)
[12:51] <djm62> how can I get my pcmcia wi-fi card to behave when suspending the computer? currently it stops working (tm) and can't be revived short of a reboot.  It's ok when I hibernate. more deeply, how can I make suspending better supported on my card - who do I talk to?
[12:52] <Khaaaaan> but my ndiswrapper -l returned positive results
[12:52] <mwe> Khaaaaan: but I think the windows driver you use should be what is recommended for your card in the database on ndiswrapper.sf.net
[12:52] <mud> with all of those others installed, I think it uses the latest version by default..   Is there anyway to have only gcc-3.3 on there..  or disable the others?
[12:52] <dli> jbower, sudo -i
[12:52] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I am pretty sure it is...
[12:52] <mwe> Khaaaaan: maybe thats why you have firmware problems
[12:52] <Khaaaaan> mwe: but I can double check..
[12:52] <mwe> Khaaaaan: I would
[12:52] <eck> what is the command to fetch the source for a package?
[12:52] <Khaaaaan> mwe: He did list a bug report in that thread as well... and the final response was this....
 tty1 is just sitting there now no outup
[12:52] <nn_> ideas?
 output
[12:53] <tvis> hi there, i'm currently installing ubuntu, however the install has stopped at 84% (Configuring apt). I wonder if anyone could provide some assistance please?
[12:53] <jrib> eck: apt-get source package
[12:53] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Added PCI id's to driver, so this will be fixed in next dapper kernel update.
[12:53] <Khaaaaan> mwe: So maybe I just have to wait it out??
[12:53] <der0b> has anyone here compiled truecrypt?  I'm getting errors during make: make[4] : *** [drivers/usb/net/zd1211/zddevlist.h]  Error 1 AND make[3] : *** [drivers/usb/net/zd1211]  Error 2
[12:53] <mwe> Khaaaaan: what's that?
[12:54] <djm62> tvis: how long has it stopped for?
[12:54] <eck> jrib: thanks
[12:54] <dli> der0b, zd1211 builds with ubuntu
[12:54] <tvis> djm62: about 10 minutes now
[12:54] <tvis> at least
[12:54] <mwe> Khaaaaan: windows drivers shouldn't care about dapper drivers except for the ndiswrapper module
[12:54] <Khaaaaan> mwe: there is a bug report listed in the thread... I can't really tell if it is related
[12:54] <djm62> tvis: is the hard disk grinding away?
[12:54] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I see...
[12:54] <der0b> dli: I'm a newb, can you tell me what you mean?  I'm just following the instruction on the ubuntu forums and this is what I get
[12:55] <mwe> Khaaaaan: so what was the point where you ran in to trouble first?
[12:55] <dli> der0b, do you have linux-headers ?
[12:55] <Khaaaaan> mwe: when it began talking about changing firmware
[12:55] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I think I have the windows drivers loaded correctly, the hardware is present, and the power lite is on
[12:55] <Khaaaaan> mwe: But it isn't working
[12:56] <der0b> yes, and the full linux src (truecrypt needs the actual src to compile)
[12:56] <tvis> djm62: i'm sorry, i spoke too soon; installation complete :) it just seemed like forever. thanks for your help!
[12:56] <der0b> have a sym link to the src in /usr/src/linux
[12:56] <mwe> Khaaaaan: because of firmware problems
[12:56] <djm62> tvis: that's one of the disk-intense bits ;)
[12:56] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I am thinking of downloading network manager and seeing if that helps...
[12:56] <mwe> Khaaaaan: dmesg said so
[12:56] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I think so yea...
[12:56] <dli> der0b, I don't know trucrypt, I just mean zd1211
[12:56] <tvis> djm62: ah, well thanks again
[12:56] <mwe> Khaaaaan: network manager wont fix that
[12:56] <Khaaaaan> mwe: right... but I am no expert unfortunetly
[12:57] <dli> der0b, however, linux-source is not needed, unless you build your own kernel
[12:57] <mwe> Khaaaaan: you need to somehow fix the firmware issue
[12:57] <linux_user400354> how can i get mcopy?
[12:57] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I need more info though... and no one seems to know more, I wish there was an expert that had this same issue :)
[12:57] <linux_user400354> what package does mcopy come in?
[12:57] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I am not sure if I am the one that should be forging a path here :)
[12:58] <mwe> Khaaaaan: did you put correct info in config.opts?
[12:58] <linux_user400354> can anyone help? is anyone able to figure out how to get mcopy or what package it comes in?
[12:58] <Khaaaaan> mwe: No, I wasnt sure what to put
[12:58] <mwe> Khaaaaan: well thats probably the problem then
[12:58] <jrib> linux_user400354: mtools
[12:58] <mwe> Khaaaaan: put the info from lspci and cardctl manfid
[12:58] <jrib> linux_user400354: packages.ubuntu.com has a search feature for files that you can use too
[12:59] <Khaaaaan> mwe: and, if you see in the thread, HeavyAl tried messing with it, and got messed
[12:59] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ok lemme see...
[01:00] <Khaaaaan> mwe: How do I know what my socket number is when I do the cardctl manfid?
[01:00] <mwe> Khaaaaan: the AL dude doesn't say anything but that he couldn't get it to work ;)
[01:01] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ha!

[01:01] <mwe> Khaaaaan: just type cardctl manfid and tell me the output
[01:02] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It gives me a usage error
[01:02] <mwe> Khaaaaan: cardctl ident sorry
[01:02] <Khaaaaan> ha ok
[01:03] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It tells me that both socket 1 and socket 0 have "no product info available"
[01:03] <Rikkimaru> What would you all suggest I use to easily configure wireless networks?
[01:03] <mwe> Khaaaaan: oh. that's not good

[01:04] <Khaaaaan> driver present, hardware present
[01:04] <djm62> Rikkimaru: gnome-network-manager
[01:04] <e-gandalf> hi, I'm looking for some solution to my problem. I'm using Ubuntu Dapper, it works fine, I'm happy. The only problem is that for my work I need dbus 0.62, and I don't know how in Ubuntu world I can solve it, since backports are only for security, and edgy (which has 0.62) is probably very unstable.
[01:04] <Rikkimaru> djm62: I downloaded network-manager-gnome, is that the same thing?
[01:04] <Khaaaaan> mwe: hardware present, driver present
[01:05] <djm62> Rikkimaru: yes - braino :(
[01:05] <LjL> e-gandalf: backports are not only for security. actually, backports are *not* for security, that's what dapper-security is for. only, backports haven't yet been activated anyway
[01:05] <Rikkimaru> djm62: so, how do I use it then?
[01:05] <tuxtux> reboot
[01:05] <mwe> Khaaaaan: did you rename the .sys files like the guy suggests?
[01:05] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Yes sir
[01:05] <LjL> e-gandalf: you could probably try compiling the edgy package, but no guarantees
[01:05] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I tell ya... this has me baffled
[01:05] <djm62> !network-manager
[01:05] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager
[01:05] <djm62> Rikkimaru: see that link
[01:05] <e-gandalf> LjL, does it mean that I can wait for backports to eventually backport to dapper? or would it be smarter to get edgy package and try to install it and cross fingers?
[01:06] <LjL> e-gandalf: backports only happen if you ask for them, and even then, i'm afraid something like dbus wouldn't get backported, as a lot of things, i believe, depend on it -- backports is mostly for "stand-alone" packages
[01:06] <homefront> hello all ? what s invold in making my window workstations file share though my web/file server running ubuntu?
[01:06] <mwe> Khaaaaan: hmm. i think you need to load different firmware somehow
[01:07] <micahf> hey any idea why my modules just disappeared?!
[01:07] <micahf> I lost a bunch of modules
[01:07] <LjL> e-gandalf: don't just get the edgy package anyway - get the *source* package and compile it, that ought to be sort of safer. still do cross your fingers though
[01:07] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I know... I may have to just post my problems in that thread and see if they can help... or buy a card that works in Linux... you know of any btw :)???
[01:07] <linux_user400354> no body here knows much about mcopy or is able to find out how to get it for ubuntu.
[01:08] <kbrooks> linux_user400354: try the pkg mtools
[01:08] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Seriouslly... can you send me a link to a card on NewEgg that will work straight up :) ??
[01:08] <mwe> Khaaaaan: or try the linux acx module instead of the ndiswrapper solution
[01:08] <linux_user400354> kbrooks, thanks
[01:09] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Whats that?
[01:09] <mwe> Khaaaaan: do you have linux-restricted-modules installed?
[01:09] <lufis> Can someone tell me where Rhythmbox's configuration files are?
[01:09] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I believe I do yes
[01:09] <djm62> lufis: .gnome2/rhythmbox IIRC
[01:09] <idefix>  somehow a directory appeared in my home drive with three js-files and two css-files... who made them and what are they for?
[01:09] <mwe> Khaaaaan: acx is a linux module for your wifi chip
[01:09] <djm62> idefix: did you save a webpage?
[01:10] <sorush20> hi guys , my boot of ubuntu fresh install desktop is much slower than my fresh install of xp on the same computer why?
[01:10] <idefix> you mean open a webpage in mozilla and then save it?
[01:10] <Khaaaaan> mwe: hmmm... would it have to be installed via synaptic, or automatically with the modules?
[01:10] <djm62> idefix: yeah
[01:10] <sorush20> I have tried to change  the services that are running but there really isn't anything that is not needed..
[01:10] <Woosta> How come the latest firefox-dom-inspector package and the latest firefox package are incompatible with each other? FF is 1.5.0.4 and dom-inspector is 1.5.0.3 .. is there an alternate repository with compatible packages?
[01:10] <idefix> maybe.. but I think it's because of me chatting with someone because the name of this person followed with -files is the name of the directory
[01:11] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, what do you mean by slower?
[01:11] <idefix> js-files are executable linux scripts aren't they?
[01:11] <mwe> Khaaaaan: linux-restricted-modules is not installed by default
[01:11] <djm62> idefix: what is the directory called? anonymise the name if need be...
[01:11] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Perhaps that was what the bug report was about... the firmware in the restricted modules is screwed up...
[01:11] <e-gandalf> LjL, thnx :)
[01:11] <sorush20> the boot up time Dasnipa`
[01:11] <homefront> hello all ? what s involed in making my window workstations file share though my web/file server running ubuntu?
[01:11] <djm62> idefix: js are javascript files, typically executed by whatever browser.  CSS are style sheets for web pages
[01:11] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, what does boot-up time matter? linux rarely needs rebooting...
[01:12] <barneyR> anyone know how to get Ubuntu 6.0 to recognize a USB modem?
[01:12] <mwe> Khaaaaan: also if you use a different version like one of the guys is suggesting?
[01:12] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, ways to increase the speed however include disabling hot-plugging
[01:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I did a search in synaptic... and I definetly have them installed, some aren't, but I think they might be older ones
[01:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: what do you mean? Have I?
[01:12] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, if your hardware is not going to be changing
[01:12] <mwe> Khaaaaan: modprobe -l|grep acx
[01:12] <sorush20> Dasnipa`: that is bad
[01:12] <djm62> sorush20: when are you measuring to or from?  There is a difference (I've found) and it also matters whether you count time-to-desktop, time-to-login-screen or time-to-finish-loading
[01:13] <ernstp> what's the best torrent app for dapper?
[01:13] <LjL> !best
[01:13] <ernstp> azureus seems really buggy!
[01:13] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences and the features you require.
[01:13] <matthew_w> Here's a funny question - once I've created a linux from scratch system, or for that matter any distribution... how do people make it so it can be distributed on CDs? like.. so you pop it in and it goes?
[01:13] <mwe> ernstp: bittorrent is decent
[01:13] <Khaaaaan> mwe: modprobe -l|grep acx
[01:13] <barneyR> sorry but thats not true, some apps are the best of class
[01:13] <djm62> ernstp: gnome-btdownload is alright
[01:13] <Khaaaaan> mwe: whoops
[01:13] <RawSewage> Ubuntu is featured on Faux News:  http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,204637,00.html
[01:13] <ernstp> the default?
[01:14] <Khaaaaan> mwe: /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/acx/acx.ko
[01:14] <sorush20> djm62: compared to xp windows everything is a lot slower..
[01:14] <mwe> Khaaaaan: good
[01:14] <ernstp> well, it hasn't downloaded a single file for me. azureus works though..
[01:14] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, you still never really answered my question though... booting happens so rarely what does it matter if its slower or faster?
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Guys I need to vent a little.  This is the second time in a row where tha update has overwritten my grub.lst..  Is it too much to ask that you warn a user or make a bacjup of something so basic as a persons bootloader?
[01:14] <barneyR> of course some people have their favorite app, but that doesn't make it best
[01:14] <idefix> djm62 oh there's ano_files anonymous_files and then there's a ano-files in anonymous
[01:14] <djm62> sorush20: that points to something pathological then...
[01:14] <idefix> djm62 and there's a _history_files in anonymous
[01:15] <ernstp> Jack_Sparrow: the grub/menu.lst is allways edited when you update the kernel
[01:15] <mwe> Khaaaaan: now sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper && modprobe acx. then iwconfig and ifconfig -a
[01:15] <ernstp> Jack_Sparrow: it has certain rules however
[01:15] <ardchoille> Jack_Sparrow: There are options at the beginning of the menu.lst file that you can set for keeping certain things from being over-written.
[01:15] <sorush20> Dasnipa`: when I trun my computer on until I can get into my kdem destop it take much much longer than windows xp on a differnet hdd..
[01:15] <djm62> idefix: some chat program is probably saving them... should be perfectly safe to delete them: it's a bit rude saving stuff without your knowledge anyway ;)
[01:15] <mwe> Khaaaaan: well also sudo modprobe acx
[01:15] <ernstp> Jack_Sparrow: man update-grub       and look at the commented config options in the file
[01:16] <mwe> Khaaaaan: or type sudo -i to get a root prompt so you don't have to type sudo all the time
[01:16] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, yes i understand this but i want to know why it is such a big deal to you
[01:16] <sorush20> because I assumed that linux would be faster..
[01:16] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I got results for iwconfig....
[01:16] <sorush20> or is that not the case.
[01:16] <sorush20> Dasnipa`:
[01:16] <River> An install script issued '/etc/init.d/inetd restart' but this gives error "/etc/init.d/inetd: No such file or directory" can someone please help me
[01:16] <idefix> djm62 so if I somehow view a webpage with one css-file (I don't know how to activate it) it'll look different that with another css-file?
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks all...
[01:16] <djm62> sorush20: 1min either way wouldn't be suspicious, but anything longer than that points to something being tried and failed: seeing as ubuntu is nice and verbose when booting up...what's taking so long
[01:16] <idefix> djm62 are you still there?
[01:17] <mwe> Khaaaaan: yes what?
[01:17] <djm62> idefix: google csszengarden :) very much so
[01:17] <mwe> Khaaaaan: interface name?
[01:18] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Okay, what would you like to see the output of first?
[01:18] <mwe> Khaaaaan: iwconfig. paste.ubuntu-nl.org so you dont get banned for spamming the channel
[01:18] <River> Or what is the correct way to restart inetd on dapper
[01:18] <Jude> I'm somehow succeeded in installing ubuntu... without x11.
[01:18] <djm62> sorush20: my gut instinct says that ubuntu is trying to bring up a network interface and giving it plenty of time in case it's just a slow link...hence adding minutes to boot up time
[01:18] <Khaaaaan> mwe: no doubr... one sec
[01:19] <sorush20> djm62: I'm gonna remove those bad one..
[01:19] <Dasnipa`> sorush20, yes as djm62 said ubuntu is very verbose, you can check to see if something is hanging... yes and especially with network... mine takes awhile because i have a wireless card and a wired card
[01:19] <djm62> Dasnipa`: use network-manager, and don't configure anything at boot :)
[01:20] <barneyR> how do you get a USB modem recognized? anyone? anyone? Bueler?
[01:20] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay its up there
[01:20] <mwe> Khaaaaan: url?
[01:20] <Dasnipa`> djm62, meh i would... but its not a huge deal to me... i only boot on power outages and moves back and forth between college dorm and home during summer
[01:20] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ha ha doh!
[01:20] <barneyR> get a UPS and you won't even have to boot then
[01:21] <mwe> nm got it
[01:21] <djm62> sorush20: as to whether linux is faster than Windows XP... I find the interface of XP a bit snappier, but ubuntu boots faster and behaves more functionally on my machine.  Speed isn't a big deal to me
[01:21] <Khaaaaan> mwe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18468
[01:21] <mwe> Khaaaaan: it's looking good!
[01:21] <djm62> Dasnipa`: ah :) I'm more of a nomadic user
[01:21] <Khaaaaan> mwe: good!
[01:21] <mwe> Khaaaaan: now paste ifconfig output
[01:21] <River> Can someone please point me to how to restart inetd on dapper
[01:22] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay one sec
[01:22] <mwe> River: sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart or xinetd if that's what you use
[01:22] <mwe> River: iirc
[01:23] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Okay... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18470
[01:23] <djm62> Speaking of which, can anyone tell me how to automatically disable my pcmcia wifi card before suspending and re-enable it afterwards? at the moment it hangs on restart, which is terribly annoying
[01:23] <River> mwe: I get command not found
[01:24] <mwe> Khaaaaan: alright do you have your wep key handy?
[01:24] <River> mwe: "sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart"
[01:24] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yes sir
[01:24] <mwe> River: xinetd probably
[01:25] <mwe> Khaaaaan: ok and your essid name?
[01:25] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I believe so yes...
[01:25] <mwe> Khaaaaan: sudo -i to get a root prompt if you haven't
[01:25] <barneyR> how do you get a USB modem recognized? anyone? anyone? Bueler?
[01:25] <ardchoille> mwe: I have neither inetd now xinetd. Is that a bad thing?
[01:25] <ardchoille> s/now/nor
[01:25] <Khaaaaan> mwe: got it...
[01:26] <mwe> iwlist wlan0 scan, does it show your ap?
[01:26] <mwe> ardchoille: you probably don't need it. it's not installed by default I think
[01:26] <River> mwe: standard dapper install and I have a /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/init.d/
[01:26] <VR_> is there any "compact" media player out there that does ogg? other than vlc, bmp and xmms.
[01:26] <ardchoille> mwe: Ah, ok
[01:26] <djm62> VR_: software player? ogg123?
[01:26] <djm62> VR_: how compact?
[01:26] <VR_> djm62: Does that have an EQ?
[01:27] <mwe> River: but did you install an inet daemon like xinetd?
[01:27] <VR_> djm62: Just something that's not as crazy as amarok
[01:27] <mwe> Khaaaaan:  iwlist wlan0 scan, does it show your ap?
[01:27] <djm62> VR_: helix-player?
[01:27] <Khaaaaan> mwe: no scan results
[01:27] <River> mwe: not that I am aware of
[01:28] <djm62> VR_: the lo-fat version of realplayer, but it is native gnome
[01:28] <mwe> Khaaaaan: hmm is it hidden?
[01:28] <mwe> River: well then you cant use it
[01:28] <VR_> djm62: i use gnome
[01:28] <mwe> River: why do you need it?
[01:28] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It isn't broadcasting the ESSID if thats what you mean...
[01:28] <River> mwe: so inetd is not installed by default?
[01:28] <mwe> Khaaaaan: that's what I meant. no worries then
[01:28] <Khaaaaan> mwe: cool
[01:29] <ernstp> aaah, azureus works better with Sun's java than gij!
[01:29] <mwe> Khaaaaan: well iwconfig wlan0 <your ap name> type that with the correct ap name
[01:29] <bronze> howdy, I'm running the new ubuntu live-cd and trying to use the "xhost +" command. It keeps giving an 'unable to open display "" ' error message.  Does anyone know a way around this for Ubuntu?
[01:29] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ap?
[01:29] <mwe> Khaaaaan: access point
[01:29] <River> mwe: I'm running install scripts and instructions for Quasar accounting and it is trying to setup a server
[01:29] <djm62> VR_: what can I say, it's free, see if it floats your boat... I can't think of anything else notable
[01:30] <mwe> Khaaaaan: the essid
[01:30] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It says it is... unrecoginzed
[01:30] <mwe> Khaaaaan: what is?
[01:30] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Error : unrecognised wireless request "hizzy"
[01:30] <VR_> djm62: thanks
[01:30] <mwe> Khaaaaan: what did you type?
[01:31] <Khaaaaan> mwe: iwconfig wlan0 hizzy
[01:31] <Sandick> So I just installed Ubuntu (linux newb here ..) on a Shuttle SB86i and it seems fine, but doesn't display greater than 1024x768.  I assume this is because I don't have drivers installed.  I can't find linux drivers on shuttle's site - am i just sol'ed ?
[01:31] <mwe> Khaaaaan: you need to type iwconfig wlan0 essid <essid>. note the essid keyword
[01:31] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ahhhh ok
[01:31] <mwe> Khaaaaan: iwconfig wlan0 essid hizzy
[01:31] <sorush21> hi guys gparted has just crashed.. while it was chaning the structure of a backup hdd.. should I killall gparted?
[01:32] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... it just did nothing
[01:32] <mwe> Khaaaaan: that's a good sign. means it worked
[01:32] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Which would be a good thing if this was DOS :)
[01:32] <Khaaaaan> mwe: cool
[01:32] <matthew_w> How do I tell which GCC I have?
[01:32] <mwe> Khaaaaan: now iwconfig wlan0 key yourkey
[01:32] <River> mwe: Are you suggesting it is pref not to install rand un inetd ?
[01:32] <mwe> mathieu: gcc --version
[01:32] <ardchoille> gcc --version
[01:32] <mwe> mathieu: or dpkg -l|grep gcc
[01:32] <matthew_w> Thanks.
[01:33] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... it did it
[01:34] <djm62> Sandick: can you tell me what video card it has?
[01:34] <mwe> Khaaaaan: good. now dhclient wlan0 and cross your fingers
[01:34] <Khaaaaan> Do I need to do anything like disable eth0?
[01:34] <mwe> Khaaaaan: no
[01:34] <mwe> Khaaaaan: just type dhclient wlan0
[01:34] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... I did... so far so good
[01:35] <mwe> Khaaaaan: you got an ip?
[01:35] <mwe> Khaaaaan: try ping yahoo.com
[01:35] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It is doing a DHCP discover
[01:35] <Sandick> dhm62: integrated intel gma900 according to this product sheet: http://global.shuttle.com/Product/Barebone/SB86i.asp
[01:35] <River> mwe:  so should I install inetd or xinetd
[01:35] <mwe> Khaaaaan: oh still :|
[01:35] <Khaaaaan> mwe: hmmm... it seemed to fail
[01:36] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I wonder if I mistyped my SSID
[01:36] <mwe> Khaaaaan: oh :|
[01:36] <Khaaaaan> mwe: let me double check
[01:36] <mwe> Khaaaaan: or the key
[01:36] <Sandick> is there like a Device Manager in Linux where I can see what devices require drivers and which ones aren't working properly ?
[01:36] <Sandick> i was surprised that the network worked immediately, as well as the sound, but i don't know which devices (such as the video card) still need drivers
[01:36] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yea it would be the key, not the SSID :)
[01:37] <mwe> Khaaaaan: you said it's wep, right? not wpa?
[01:37] <Khaaaaan> mwe: let me double check it
[01:37] <Khaaaaan> mwe: right, 128 wep
[01:37] <mwe> ok because the post says wpa wont work with the acx driver, Khaaaaan
[01:38] <mwe> Khaaaaan: I guess the key is pretty long
[01:38] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Yea I figured that much :)
[01:38] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yea... which is why I think I might have borked it
[01:38] <mwe> Khaaaaan: double check it
[01:38] <djm62> !fixres
[01:38] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:38] <Khaaaaan> mwe: doh! nah I was correct : /
[01:39] <djm62> Sandick: you probably just need to change some settings for the graphics...try that link from ubotu
[01:39] <mwe> Khaaaaan: at least it looks the the driver is working with your hardware
[01:39] <mwe> Khaaaaan: you didn't mistype the key?
[01:39] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yea... step 1 complete :)
[01:39] <ankan> guys.... I want to use Banshee for my new Ipod Nano....but when I try to sync it its givin me a warnin tht my stuff allready there maybe lost or altered.....is tht true?
[01:39] <djm62> Sandick: System->Administration->Device Manager has a list of hardware, but it's pretty raw
[01:39] <Khaaaaan> mwe: no, I copied and pasted
[01:39] <Nikolas> Hey
[01:40] <mwe> Khaaaaan: hmm
[01:40] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I wish it gave better error messages...
[01:40] <Khaaaaan> mwe: it says it was trying to connect to 255.255.255.255
[01:40] <Khaaaaan> mwe: hmmm
[01:40] <mwe> Khaaaaan: anything interesting like errors near the end of the output from dmesg?
[01:40] <Nikolas> I have a slight problem with my ubuntu... I copied all the files from one hdd to another and now gdm says something about mkdtemp and a private directory
[01:41] <vader> has anyone sync'd a cingular 2125?
[01:41] <djm62> ankan: if it's new, then you're as well trying it out before it gets filled up with tracks and playlists (and giving them feedback if it does make a mess)
[01:41] <Khaaaaan> mwe: actually yea... there is this...
[01:41] <Sandick> heh yea this device manager definitely isn't as intuitive as windows
[01:41] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[01:41] <Wiseguy> hey guys if i install openoffice from the rpms off the website rather than through synaptic, how do i  add the newly installed version to my PATH
[01:41] <djm62> Sandick: I didn't like to recommend it for that reason ;) it's thorough, but...
[01:42] <Khaaaaan> mwe: that appears a few times...
[01:42] <ankan> djm62: so shoud I go ahead and sync it....cus I dont wanna lose the stuff that I allready have in there
[01:42] <Sandick> how do i update drivers using this device manager ?
[01:42] <Sandick> or do i not ..
[01:42] <linux_user400354> i am unable to mount my harddrive in ubuntu. can someone please help? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18473
[01:42] <mwe> Khaaaaan: hmm. can you paste that along with a few lines before and after that?
[01:42] <poje> Has anyone played with NX?
[01:43] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Sure, give me one sec...
[01:43] <djm62> ankan: if you have stuff you can't lose, then don't use stuff which gives you that warning.  personally, I'd give it a shot, but the warning is meant to obtain your informed consent.
[01:43] <Sandick> it doesn't even say there's an error on the graphics card
[01:43] <Bonez56> linux_user400354: it looks like it may already be mounted. can you post a copy of /etc/fstab ?
[01:43] <emil> Hello :d
[01:44] <Bonez56> emil: hello :P
[01:44] <djm62> Sandick: the drivers thing is slightly different under linux.  manufacturers almost never supply them (with some notable exceptions), and mostly you don't have to worry about them
[01:44] <Khaaaaan> mwe: shoot what is the link for pastbin again?
[01:44] <linux_user400354> Bonez56, no it is not. if you understand my last command, then you will know its not mounted.
[01:44] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: are you there?
[01:44] <emil> I've got some problems, today i changed from Debian to Ubuntu, but i install some Codecs, my avi files work fine now, but i can't play wmv files, is there a codec for wmv?
[01:44] <mwe> Khaaaaan: paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:45] <djm62> Sandick: the chances are, the system hasn't detected that your video card/monitor are capable of a higher resolution, so you have to tell it
[01:45] <Sandick> if manufacturers never supply them, why would you not have to worry about them ?  i thought driver support was one of the big problems with linux
[01:45] <Sandick> oh
[01:45] <linux_user400354> !restrictedformats > emil
[01:45] <Sandick> how do i tell it to ?
[01:45] <e-gandalf> LjL, ./configure --prefix=/usr will be enough?
[01:45] <Bonez56> linux_user400354: what is LinuxLVM? never heard of that... is it an ext3 partition?
[01:45] <Khaaaaan> mwe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18474
[01:46] <emil> linux_user400354:  I allready installed that gstreamer stuff and w32codecs
[01:46] <linux_user400354> Bonez56, logical volume management
[01:46] <mud> I have  gcc 3.3, 3.4, & 4.0 installed on my system... I think that my pc tries to use the most current version when it compiles..  Is there a command I can put in the makefile to make it use gcc-3.3 ?
[01:46] <Bonez56> emil: have you tried automatix?
[01:47] <LjL> e-gandalf: uh, leave configure alone and just use the apt system to compile... "apt-get -b source packagename", after doing "sudo apt-get build-dep packagename". that should give you a binary package
[01:47] <emil> Bonez56:  What is automatix exactly?
[01:47] <e-gandalf> ok
[01:47] <linux_user400354> emil, try mplayer. it supports many formats and so does xine
[01:47] <ardchoille> !automatix > emil
[01:47] <Bonez56> emil: it's a script that installs a bunch of must have software for you, automatically :)
[01:47] <mud> please?
[01:47] <Bonez56> !automatix > Bonez56
[01:47] <emil> Bonez56:  I hope not to much programs?
[01:47] <djm62> Sandick: it looks like drivers are supplied by intel (which is good).  and I'm having a look at how best (least painfully)  to increase your resolution
[01:48] <helpmeee> I have a lagging sound problem in quake3..does someone know how to fix this?
[01:48] <Bonez56> emil: you can select what you are after, you are not forced to install everything. /j #automatix if you want more info. it works great though and should solve your codec problem
[01:48] <Sandick> djm62: thanks !  :D
[01:48] <emil> i joined
[01:48] <emil> hope they help me further
[01:48] <chizang> i recently upgraded from breezy to dapper, and all of a sudden, bittorrent stopped working correctly. i had port forwarding configured on my router before and nothing has changed. so my question is, did dapper introduce some sort of firewall or somesuch?
[01:48] <mwe> Khaaaaan: it's complaining about the firmware. time to load a different fw version
[01:48] <linux_user400354> Bonez56, it is a ext3 filesystem on a logical volume, not a partition. that is my fedora core 5 install.
[01:49] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ahhh poop
[01:49] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Is that difficult?
[01:49] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, I'm here now, sorry
[01:49] <e-gandalf> LjL, ouch, depenencies will kill me here :(
[01:49] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: glad I caught you :)
[01:49] <mwe> Khaaaaan: nah not if you have the firmware. hold on
[01:49] <chizang> to put it in dumber terms, my bittornado light never turns green. it stays yellow.... :-/
[01:49] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: any chance we could work on that lagging sound issue or are you busy?
[01:49] <Khaaaaan> mwe: uh oh... :)
[01:49] <chizang> whereas before, it turned green and i had great download speeds
[01:49] <e-gandalf> LjL, is it worth trying to compile it on my own if using apt-get -b sources returned tons of required dependencies, but ./configure was happy with what it found?
[01:49] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, hmmm...  well I can see if I can find a solution  :)
[01:50] <Bonez56> linux_user400354: can't really think of much else sorry. obviously you have tried rebooting? is there an entry in your fstab at all for it?
[01:50] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: yeah lol
[01:50] <LjL> e-gandalf: not necessarily. perhaps some dependencies are not strictly necessary to compile, but are still needed to enable all the features ubuntu needs. let me have a look
[01:51] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, do you get this error in the console when you start the game: "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:868:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" ?
[01:51] <mwe> Khaaaaan: nano /etc/modprobe.d/options and paste in options acx firmware_ver=1.2.1.34 at the end and save the file
[01:51] <mwe> Khaaaaan: then modprobe -r acx && modprobe acx and look at dmesg
[01:51] <helpmeee> well i'll try rite now and see what is ais
[01:52] <djm62> Sandick: looks slightly painful, but there is a page on the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/i915Driver
[01:52] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ok
[01:52] <thrice`> how can I tell which module the liveCD is using for net ?
[01:52] <mwe> Khaaaaan: put 'options acx firmware_ver=1.2.1.34' at the end
[01:53] <djm62> Sandick: remember you have dapper, so you don't need to download anything manually
[01:53] <phaedrus44> thrice   lsmod?
[01:53] <Khaaaaan> mwe: what is the full line I am pasting in? opitions acx firware=etc?
[01:54] <Khaaaaan> mwe: oh I see
[01:54] <mwe> Khaaaaan: 'options acx firmware_ver=1.2.1.34' without quotes
[01:54] <LjL> e-gandalf: hm well, i think to be on the safe side you really should install anything that "apt-get build-dep dbus" wants you to instal.
[01:54] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: would it say that under sound or should I just look anywhere in terminal window?
[01:54] <Zambezi> I can't extract a tar.gz-file. It's doesn't work with tar xvfz.
[01:54] <thrice`> phaedrus44, yes, but how can I tell for sure which of those it's using?  I only recognize forcedeth, and i'm sure it isn't that
[01:54] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, anywhere in terminal window....  but actually you can forget about that for right now, I think i found a solution
[01:54] <FunnyLookinHat> !pastebin
[01:54] <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)
[01:54] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: oh okay <3
[01:54] <mwe> Zambezi: tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[01:55] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, go to that website and paste your /etc/asound.conf file
[01:55] <Khaaaaan> mwe: ha how do I save :)?
[01:55] <mwe> Zambezi: I think the f must be the last letter
[01:55] <Sandick> djm62: thanks, i'm looking at it now
[01:55] <Bonez56> h0h0
[01:55] <phaedrus44> oh...thrice   sorry
[01:55] <mwe> Khaaaaan: ctrl-x and answer yes
[01:55] <Sandick> why does dapper not have to download drivers ?
[01:56] <mwe> Sandick: because they are in the kernel and the kernel modules
[01:56] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: it sais it doesnt exist
[01:56] <thrice`> no way top find out which module eth0 is using?
[01:56] <djm62> Sandick: you don't have to manually install stuff because it is done by the ubuntu team.  you only have to tell it to install the package name and your computer will find, download, and install it
[01:57] <Khaaaaan> mwe: doh! FATAL: Error removing acx (/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/acx/acx.ko): Operation not permitted
[01:57] <Sandick> ahh
[01:57] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, umm  ok one sec
[01:57] <Sandick> got'cha
[01:57] <Sandick> wow, that's easier than windows then
[01:57] <mud> Anyone know if there is a way to assing which version of GCC a makefile uses?
[01:57] <mwe> Khaaaaan: huh. are you root?
[01:57] <cpk1> Khaaaaan: try doing it as sudo
[01:57] <djm62> Sandick: even though this isn't the way the out of the box experience should be, the sting is taken out of it as far as possible
[01:57] <Khaaaaan> oh ok
[01:57] <Zambezi> mwe, gzip: stdin: not in gzip format // tar: Child returned status 1 // tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[01:57] <mwe> Khaaaaan: sudo -i to get a root prompt
[01:57] <mwe> Zambezi: then its broken
[01:58] <mwe> Zambezi: stdin ?!
[01:58] <mwe> Zambezi: what did you type?
[01:58] <matthew_w> What do error 1 and error 2 generally signify when doing Make?
[01:58] <Sandick> djm62: that's fine, i'd rather run into these problems then have it flawless, it'll teach me how to use the system better
[01:58] <Sandick> i wouldn't have learned about how linux and drivers work otherwise
[01:58] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... not sure if this is an improvement ... I will post the output...
[01:58] <kbrooks> matthew_w: Nothing. Read the full error output by the compiler
[01:59] <mwe> Zambezi: well it looks like the file is not a tar.gz file or is broken
[01:59] <kbrooks> matthew_w: All of it. See if you have a header file missing
[01:59] <Zambezi> mwe, tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[01:59] <Bonez56> is there anything for linux similar to QuickPAR for windows? i want a GUI based program
[01:59] <kbrooks> Zambezi: are you sure?
[01:59] <Khaaaaan> mwe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18475
[01:59] <mwe> Zambezi: the file is broken
[01:59] <Sandick> # sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[02:00] <Sandick> that just gives me an    E: Couldn't find package 915resolution       error
[02:00] <mwe> Zambezi: what does 'file file.tar.gz' tell you?
[02:00] <mwe> !info 915resolution
[02:00] <ubotu> 915resolution: resolution modify tool for Intel graphic chipset. In repository universe, is extra. Version 0.5-1ubuntu6 (dapper), package size 13 kB, installed size 124 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 kfreebsd-i386)
[02:00] <mwe> Sandick: enable universe
[02:01] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ok, it seems as though the solutions for your issue are fairly complex
[02:01] <djm62> mwe: how does one do that from the GUI?
[02:01] <matthew_w> Shouldn't be a header file missing, I just untarred binutils and tried to MAKE it?
[02:01] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, I am going to bet that you have a sound card separate from your motherboard
[02:01] <mwe> djm62: I don't know. options somewhere
[02:01] <Bonez56> is there anything for linux similar to QuickPAR for windows? i want a GUI based program
[02:01] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I dont believe I do
[02:01] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, do you know what sound card you are using by any chance?
[02:01] <mwe> djm62: I'm not familiar with synaptics, only apt
[02:01] <helpmeee> sorry to say nope :(
[02:02] <mrcoyote> Hello
[02:02] <Centaur5> I would like to know if installed ubuntu on a raid correctly.  Can anybody give me advice on that?
[02:02] <Zambezi> mwe, I'll check
[02:02] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, do you have a file ~/.asoundrc   ?
[02:02] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: would that info. be in kinfocenter?
[02:02] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: i'll look
[02:02] <Sandick> mwe: how do i enable universe, and what is it ?
[02:02] <LjL> !universe > sandick
[02:03] <matthew_w> Hey, kbrooks, check this out?  http://pastebin.ca/94092
[02:03] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: if all I do is type that in terminal then no
[02:03] <e-gandalf> LjL: 103 mb update, almost all core packages ;) I think I'll give up
[02:03] <Sandick> thanks LjL
[02:03] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, try typing more ~/.asoundrc
[02:04] <mwe> !universe > Sandick
[02:04] <Zambezi> mwe, It says:  HTML document text
[02:04] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: nope
[02:04] <mwe> Sandick: read /msg from ubotu
[02:04] <LjL> e-gandalf: well try the binary package from edgy then
[02:04] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ok hmm. give me a minute
[02:04] <mwe> Zambezi: yeah it's not a tar.gz file. it's an html file
[02:04] <mwe> Zambezi: with the tar.gz name
[02:04] <Khaaaaan> mwe: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18475
[02:04] <Zambezi> kbrooks, Yes. I'm sure I wrote it that way. I check twice.
[02:04] <Sandick> thanks mwe :)
[02:05] <Khaaaaan> mwe: dunno if you saw it :)
[02:05] <mwe> Zambezi: something probably went wrong when you downloaded it
[02:05] <javiolo> is there any BASIC app for linux _
[02:05] <Sandick> so universe isn't a linux thing, it's limited to just the ubuntu distribution ?
[02:05] <javiolo> to program BASIC
[02:05] <Zambezi> mwe, I have to check.
[02:06] <mwe> Khaaaaan: well it says auth failed but doesn't complain about the firmware but there is a warning about the bit rate
[02:06] <LjL> javiolo: "apt-cache search basic language", or "apt-cache search basic | grep BASIC"
[02:06] <djm62> Sandick: yeah, a lot of distributions have similar things- ubuntu's version is pretty good
[02:06] <Khaaaaan> mwe: what does that mean?
[02:06] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, try doing this
[02:06] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, killall esd
[02:06] <Sandick> awesome
[02:07] <mwe> Khaaaaan: basically that your card and/or the linux driver sucks
[02:07] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: no process killed
[02:07] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ok try this one
[02:07] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, pkill esd
[02:07] <Khaaaaan> mwe: haha
[02:07] <Khaaaaan> mwe: figures...
[02:07] <djm62> Sandick: it's not original, it's a good idea invented elsewhere, and when you hear people talking about "apt" they mean that whole system
[02:07] <javiolo> ljl danke
[02:07] <e-gandalf> how can I install one package, without dependencies etc.?
[02:07] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I did it but it sais nothing
[02:07] <LjL> Sandick: the way programs are packaged is actually one of the things that typically distinguishes distributions the most.
[02:07] <mwe> Khaaaaan: I think it will be possible to make it work though it's obviously not easy
[02:07] <Khaaaaan> mwe: If I quit now and revisit this issue later, you think I will have problems?
[02:07] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ok try running game now and tell me if sound is lagging
[02:08] <Khaaaaan> mwe: cause my battery is nearly dead...
[02:08] <LjL> e-gandalf: if it has dependencies, they need to be satisfied - no easy way around that.
[02:08] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: okay i'll check
[02:08] <Sandick> so is 'apt' a term for general linux distributions or ubuntu only ?
[02:08] <LjL> !apt
[02:08] <noway-> heya, is there any music software that can connect to iTunes shares?
[02:08] <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)
[02:08] <e-gandalf> LjL: but it's update from 0.60 to 0.62, no ABI/API changes, it shouldn't have dependency change :(
[02:08] <micahcowan> Sandick: it's used by debian-derivatives.
[02:08] <LjL> Sandick: APT is specific to Debian and Debian derivatives
[02:08] <mwe> Khaaaaan: I would put acx in /etc/modules and remove ndiswrapper then you could quit for now
[02:08] <micahcowan> RedHat, etc. don't use it.
[02:09] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: yeah it still lags :(
[02:09] <Khaaaaan> mwe: what do you mean?
[02:09] <djm62> Sandick: debian is an old and still good distro, but less focused on desktop stuff than ubuntu
[02:09] <micahcowan> helpmeee: what game, and does it use SDL?
[02:09] <LjL> e-gandalf: well, let me see
[02:09] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, hmmm
[02:09] <javiolo> noway- I think banshee has a plugin that can connect to itunes shares
[02:09] <helpmeee> micahcowan: quake3 and I have no idea
[02:09] <noway-> javiolo: interesting, thanks :-)
[02:09] <Zooliegsm> hi all.i mounted an ext3 partition in fstab,with default option but i cant write to it just in root filemanager? any help? how can i make possible to write it with single.
[02:09] <mwe> Khaaaaan: sudo nano /etc/modules and add acx at the end and remove ndiswrapper if it in there
[02:09] <javiolo> noway- btw banshee looks very similar to itunes
[02:10] <micahcowan> yes, it does then. hang on...
[02:10] <e-gandalf> LjL: the only real thing it adds beside of few bug fixes is QT bindings which are needed for me :(
[02:10] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I thought we did that?
[02:10] <mwe> Khaaaaan: that way it will try to use acx at next boot
[02:10] <noway-> javiolo: yeah, I have it now, I just haven't found the plug in
[02:10] <mwe> Khaaaaan: no edit the /etc/modules file. we didn't do that
[02:10] <helpmeee> micahcowan: okay
[02:10] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: wonder if he knows :)
[02:10] <Khaaaaan> mwe: so just put acx in there?
[02:11] <LjL> e-gandalf: well apparently it needs libc6 2.4 rather than 2.3. that looks like quite a strong requirement
[02:11] <Sandick> ah thanks guys
[02:11] <FunnyLookinHat> micahcowan, yes it uses SDL, know a relation?
[02:11] <cius> if I wanted to ssh into my home computer from my computer at work, do I have to run some special ssh daemon in order to monitor for and accept outside connections?
[02:11] <Nikolas> Hey, would anyone happen to know what this means: http://rafb.net/paste/results/ma9sWs31.html
[02:11] <mwe> Khaaaaan: and remove ndiswrapper if it's there. we loaded acx but didn't tell ubuntu to load it at next boot yet.
[02:11] <Nikolas> And how one might fix it?
[02:11] <micahcowan> helpmeee: might try export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=dsp
[02:11] <FunnyLookinHat> micahcowan, (I helped him install last night and we had to install that lib along with one or two others)
[02:11] <cius> !ssh
[02:11] <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/
[02:11] <helpmeee> micahcowan: how would I go about doing that?
[02:11] <Nikolas> I just copied all of my files from one hdd to another...
[02:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... do you think it will cause any issues later on?
[02:12] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, type it in console  : )
[02:12] <mwe> Khaaaaan: no.
[02:12] <djm62> Sandick: it's getting late in the UK, and I have work in the morning... do you think there will be enough help in here to get you sorted?
[02:12] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, "export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=dsp"
[02:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: okay... its done
[02:12] <e-gandalf> LjL: where did you find it? So why ./configure is happy on my machine (Dapper?)
[02:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: Thanks a lot for your help bro...
[02:12] <micahcowan> And then be sure to run quake3 from that same shell (not from clicking an icon).
[02:12] <Khaaaaan> mwe: It is much appreciated!
[02:12] <eigenlambda> so guys
[02:12] <mwe> Khaaaaan: at worst your card is not working so status quo
[02:12] <Sandick> djm62: yea, that's perfect, thanks for the help !
[02:12] <mwe> Khaaaaan: yw
[02:12] <helpmeee> micahcowan: command not found
[02:12] <Bo> hi i just updated my linux image and now it won't let me log in
[02:12] <djm62> Sandick: set it and forget it man ;)
[02:12] <eigenlambda> i lost my /lib/modules/modules.dep or something
[02:12] <LjL> e-gandalf: i'm talking about the *binary* package dependencies
[02:12] <micahcowan> helpmeee: what, export?
[02:13] <Khaaaaan> mwe: yea I know... I will keep plugging away at it when I have more free time
[02:13] <Khaaaaan> mwe: I'll get it eventually
[02:13] <Bo> i can put in the password and stuff at hte screen but it just sends me back
[02:13] <eigenlambda> and depmod was crashing every time i tried to manually add it back
[02:13] <mwe> Khaaaaan: yeah
[02:13] <Khaaaaan> mwe: thanks again!
[02:13] <Khaaaaan> Adios all!
[02:13] <e-gandalf> LjL: oh, ok.
[02:13] <helpmeee> micahcowan: bash: export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=dsp: command not found
[02:13] <eigenlambda> as well, my computer needs a very specific xorg.conf or the display will screw up
[02:13] <e-gandalf> LjL: I'll try with selfcompiling sources *^^*
[02:13] <eigenlambda> so, i put in the ubuntu livecd
[02:13] <FunnyLookinHat> how in the world is export not found...   weird.
[02:13] <eigenlambda> used the safe graphics mode, adding 'single' to the command line
[02:13] <Bo> i can't log on after i updated my linux image. it sends me back to the login screen
[02:14] <Bo> how can i get back in?
[02:14] <Centaur5> I setup the partitions on the dapper installation on both hard drives as a physical partion for raid then that created the RAID1 device.  I then created my root partition and continued the installation but then it doesn't boot.  Did I do something wrong?
[02:14] <eigenlambda> mounted my hard drive to /mnt
[02:14] <mud> Any gcc geniuses out there?
[02:14] <eigenlambda> and dpkg --root=/mnt -P linux-image-blah-blah
[02:14] <micahcowan> helpmeee: that's weird... it should be built into bash. Okay... are you launching Quake3 from a terminal?
[02:14] <eigenlambda> and then dpkg --root
[02:14] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I just tried it without the "  " and it sais nothing now when entered
[02:15] <mwe> mud just ask your question :)
[02:15] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, yea that's right
[02:15] <mud> Why will ubuntu not let me only have gcc-3.3 on the system? It makes me have 4.0
[02:15] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, without the quotes   :)
[02:15] <helpmeee> micahcowan: I just tried it without the " " and it sais nothing now when entered
[02:15] <eigenlambda> * and then dpkg --root=/mnt -i /var/cache/apt/stuff/linux-image-blah-blah
[02:15] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, now try running it
[02:15] <mwe> mud: huh?
[02:15] <eigenlambda> i think it would be cool
[02:15] <helpmeee> i'll try running it <3
[02:15] <Sandick> i edited the /etc/apt/sources.list file to enable universe, but sudo apt-get install 915resolution still returns a Couldn't find package 915resolution error
[02:15] <ompaul> mud,  I am sure there are, I am not one of them, if you asked the actual question of the channel they might have a clue as to what to do, I take it you have installed build-essential
[02:15] <mud> mwe: hard to explain
[02:15] <eigenlambda> if ubuntu had better support for booting the livecd without x
[02:15] <Bo> can anyone help me get back into my computer? i updated my imgae and it would send me back to the login screen
[02:15] <micahcowan> Oh..... helpmeee, FunnyLookinHat didn't mean to use the quotes.
[02:15] <Sandick> what else do i have to do ?
[02:15] <FunnyLookinHat> micahcowan, I used them, my bad  : )
[02:15] <eigenlambda> and if, if depmod fails when installing a new kernel package
[02:15] <mwe> mud: having both wont hurt but I beleive you can remove gcc4 if you want to
[02:16] <eigenlambda> it does not suggest you simply ignore the problem
[02:16] <mwe> mud: you can still use 3.3 when you need it
[02:16] <eigenlambda> 'k thats all
[02:16] <kbrooks> Sandick: tell the system that you changed your sources.list
[02:16] <mwe> mud: sudo ln -fns /usr/bin/gcc-3.3 /usr/bin/gcc to make 3.3 default
[02:16] <helpmeee> micahcowan: I think it works now :D
[02:16] <Sandick> kbrooks: how do i do that ?
[02:16] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I think it works now :D
[02:16] <kbrooks> Sandick: are you using synaptic?
[02:16] <micahcowan> It's not lagging anymore?
[02:16] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, sweet
[02:16] <FunnyLookinHat> micahcowan, thanks man!!
[02:16] <mud> mew: I am compiling a certian program that will only work with 3.3 installed, under the package manager.. 3.3, 3.4 & 4.0 are checked.. When I remove just 4.0 it removes the package that is just named "gcc" which should be left there.. UNLESS there is a way to tell my makefile whith gcc ver to us
[02:16] <helpmeee> micahcowan: thank you <3
[02:16] <mud> mwe oh.. hehe
[02:17] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: thank you to <3 lol
[02:17] <FunnyLookinHat> micahcowan, I had totally forgotten about setting the audio driver for SDL lib  : )
[02:17] <mwe> mud: or use sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
[02:17] <micahcowan> For me, it usually has been because of esd, but I guess that process wasn't even running...
[02:17] <Sandick> kbrooks: no, i don't know what that is.  just following the cmd lines i'm given to use in the terminal
[02:17] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: so it's all okay now even if I restart the computer?
[02:17] <micahcowan> FunnyLookinHat: Yeah: I learned about it while dealing with Quake2, Quake4 and Doom3, all of which I had issues with for sound.
[02:17] <micahcowan> helpmeee: no, you'll need to run that stupid export thing everytime.
[02:17] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, err, you may want to add it to your x startup script
[02:17] <helpmeee> micahcowan: eww.. all I play is quake3 :)
[02:17] <kbrooks> Sandick: well, its a GUI
[02:17] <mud> mwe: You are a freakin life saver bro, thanks alot :) that worked
[02:17] <micahcowan> helpmeee: what FunnyLookinHat said.
[02:18] <kbrooks> Sandick: no need for command line
[02:18] <Sandick> kbrooks: it says to # sudo apt-get install 915resolution       but this returns the error i mentioned, it can't find the package
[02:18] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: how might I go about doing that?
[02:18] <mwe> mud: usually export CC=whatever is sufficient though
[02:18] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, are you on KDE or Gnome?
[02:18] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, I think kde, right?
[02:18] <micahcowan> helpmeee: or, if you're running it from the shell every time, you could do it in .bashrc (but x startup script is prolly better)
[02:18] <Ropechoborra> I installed my Epson Stylus CX7400 (multifunction printer) succesfully... but when i run xsane it says "no device detected" =/ someone knows why?? =(
[02:18] <kbrooks> Sandick: sudo apt-get update. that easy
[02:18] <Sandick> awesome
[02:18] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: no idea
[02:18] <Kibou> stock quake3 doesn't use sdl.. only the icculus port does
[02:18] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, kubuntu or ubuntu ?
[02:19] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I run q3 from a file
[02:19] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: kubuntu
[02:19] <kbrooks> FunnyLookinHat: kubuntu is #kubuntu
[02:19] <kbrooks> not here
[02:19] <FunnyLookinHat> kbrooks, sorry this is a general support, not related to KDE.
[02:19] <helpmeee> yeah but noone ever answeres me there ;\
[02:19] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, Ok if you are always running it from the console, do this
[02:19] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, nano ~/.bashrc
[02:19] <Just__me> compiling mplayer... -.-
[02:19] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, nano -w ~/.bashrc
[02:19] <Just__me> coffee? :D
[02:19] <Sandick> it's working :)
[02:19] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, use the second one
[02:20] <kbrooks> FunnyLookinHat: #ubuntu is support for Ubuntu only
[02:20] <ballpointcarrot> Just__me: coffee?  try lunch break.. :)
[02:20] <Ropechoborra> I installed my Epson Stylus CX7400 (multifunction printer) succesfully... but when i run xsane it says "no device detected" =/ someone knows why?? =(
[02:20] <micahcowan> The KDE v Gnome thing shouldn't really matter, there should still be an .Xsessions or something that will get run if it's in the home dir. Anyone else know offhand?
[02:20] <Ropechoborra> *CX4700
[02:20] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I dont run it from the console though I run it from a file.. or is the console the only way
[02:20] <micahcowan> .xinitrc or .Xsession...
[02:20] <Just__me> it's 02:20 here in germany
[02:20] <FunnyLookinHat> kbrooks, sorry man, all I am doing is helping someone.  If you are unhappy with that you can bring it up at the CC I suppose
[02:20] <Just__me> sorry for disturbing the support channel :)
[02:20] <ballpointcarrot> umm....late lunch break?
[02:20] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, ooh ok
[02:20] <kbrooks> FunnyLookinHat: no way :-)
[02:21] <Centaur5> How can I check to be certain that a raid 1 is setup correctly?  Is there a way to see that the files are duplicated?
[02:21] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: I thought kubuntu is just ubuntu with a gui.. does it really matter? :X just wondering lol
[02:21] <FunnyLookinHat> helpmeee, go to #kubuntu, I will meet you there
[02:21] <helpmeee> FunnyLookinHat: okay
[02:21] <javiolo> anyone tried tremolous its a gpl game like quake 3
[02:21] <micahcowan> kbrooks: I wouldn't think it should make much difference.
[02:21] <javiolo> tremolous.net
[02:21] <Just__me> ohhh sudo make (mplayer) is done :D
[02:22] <ballpointcarrot> Just__me: nice... did you time it?
[02:22] <LjL> "sudo make"? don't do that again please
[02:22] <LjL> Just__me: only use "sudo" when you need root privileges, or you might find yourself in trouble
[02:22] <kbrooks> Just__me: sudo make install is fine. even better: sudo checkinstall
[02:22] <Sandick> just curious, what's sudo stand for ?
[02:22] <Just__me> it complained about that
[02:22] <LjL> superuse do
[02:22] <Just__me> super user do
[02:22] <ballpointcarrot> Sandick: super user Do.
[02:22] <LjL> r
[02:23] <Zambezi> mwe, You were right. The file was broke.
[02:23] <Sandick> thanks
[02:23] <kbrooks> you CAN  configure the command that it executes, read the manual page - i dont remember the option offhand
[02:23] <shiv> I really love the clock screensaver in KDE how do I get it to work for Gnome?
[02:23] <kbrooks> the default command is "make install"
[02:24] <Just__me> hmm
[02:25] <mwe> shiv: I think you need kscreensaver to use it
[02:25] <Just__me> doesn't make install need root privileges to copy files to root owned directorys?
[02:25] <shiv> hmm let me try
[02:26] <mwe> shiv: it is somehow possible to use kscreensaver instead of xscreensaver
[02:26] <Zambezi> mwe, Thanks for your help.
[02:27] <roaet> hello.
[02:27] <shiv> mwe: I think it installed fine but where do I find it?
[02:28] <dxdemetriou> Is there any place to find informations how can I make my pc to work as Movix and Geexbox with mplayer? I want the menus full screen without the usage of mouse in X11
[02:28] <roaet> i'm trying to put ftp access to a ntfs partition on my ubuntu install, but by default only root can access it. How do I do such a thing, since I can't sftp in with root?
[02:28] <roaet> should I change my fstab options to allow mount by all users?
[02:29] <dli> roaet, there's no need for that (mostly), enable gnome-volume-manager for automounter
[02:29] <kbrooks> hmm
[02:29] <roaet> well I'm not at the computer currently.
[02:29] <roaet> I'm doing all of this through ssh.
[02:30] <Jude> Hm.
[02:32] <roaet> ah nevermind, the harddrive isn't even in the computer right now. :(
[02:33] <cappiz> is there a new version after dapper?
[02:35] <jrib> cappiz: yes edgy, but a stable release is only scheduled for october
[02:35] <cappiz> kk
[02:35] <cappiz> :)
[02:35] <jrib> !eft
[02:35] <ubotu> eft is a newt in its terrestrial stage of development - the release after Dapper will be called Edgy Eft.  For information and pictures of efts/newts, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newt or try !edgy
[02:35] <cappiz> thanks
[02:35] <Cooner750> Is it possible to install the "Services" manager from Ubuntu into a Debian installation? If so, can someone tell me how? I like the functionality of it
[02:36] <cius> She turned me into a Newt!
[02:36] <River> how do i find a file anywhere using  a terminal window eg: pg_hba.conf
[02:37] <Shadowpillar> what kernel does dapper use?
[02:37] <cius> River, type "sudo find / -name "pg_hba.conf"
[02:37] <l33t> i386
[02:37] <River> cius: thank you
[02:37] <ballpointcarrot> Shadowpillar: uname -r will tell you current kernel.
[02:37] <Shadowpillar> ...
[02:37] <Shadowpillar> I dont have dapper at the moment
[02:37] <gdb> Shadowpillar: 2.6.15-26-686
[02:37] <Shadowpillar> I wouldnt have asked if I had dapper
[02:38] <jrib> River: or 'locate pg_hba.conf' (might be faster, but you may need to run sudo updatedb if it is a recent file)
[02:38] <cius> River, the quotes around th filename should be there, but the first quotation mark should not
[02:38] <Shadowpillar> hrmm okay
[02:38] <ballpointcarrot> me personally: 2.6.15-26-686
[02:38] <cappiz> i get this: Failed to fetch http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.bz2 MD5Sum mismatch
[02:38] <gdb> Shadowpillar: That's the current rev level.  It installs with abi-2.6.15-23-386.
[02:38] <cappiz> how can that be corrected?
[02:38] <gdb> er heh you get the idea
[02:38] <Shadowpillar> gdb: yeah
[02:38] <cius> ah yes, locate, I forgot about that one, I always use find
[02:38] <jrib> cappiz: edgy questions should go to #ubuntu+1 please
[02:38] <Shadowpillar> hrmm, that screws over getting the better versions of the ivtv drivers
[02:39] <River> jrib: cius: thank you both

[02:41] <brispet1> I have a problem with two machines on my network (both with ubuntu) show up in my dhcp list on my router as having identical mac address's this doesn't happen with another two other linux box's on my network (both debian sarge) and many windows boxes what could be causing this?
[02:41] <cjones> jrib kino doesent seem to work as well ?
[02:41] <jmspeex> Is it an Ubuntu policy to only mark bugs as confirmed when you actually have a fix for it?
[02:42] <dj_baggio> hmm...i have little problem. When I installed ati drivers, when I try to run kdetv or tvtime, my X server is close and in console I have communicate like this [171234568.303211] scheduling while atomic: Xorg/0x0000001/4901
[02:42] <dj_baggio> somebody could helps me? :)
[02:42] <jmspeex> Sure helps reduce the number of unfixed, confirmed bugs in the distro :-D
[02:42] <jrib> jmspeex: no, I don't believe that's policy... at least it's not what I have read and do :P
[02:43] <Paddy_EIRE>  does anyone happen to have a descent install guide for Neverwinter nights
[02:43] <tritium> jmspeex: no, that's not policy
[02:44] <jmspeex> jrib, tritium: Of 10 bugs I submitted, none has yet been marked as confirmed, despite the fact that I gave all info necessary -- and (only) one is being fixed.
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> i like cake
[02:44] <brispet1> anybody know how to fix this mac address issue spoofing mac doesn't work and ifconfig shows the correct hw mac address this problem has me totally baffled
[02:46] <jrib> jmspeex: no one might have had a chance to triage them yet.  How long ago did you submit them?
[02:46] <dj_baggio> no ideas about my problem? :)
[02:47] <jmspeex> jrib: more than 3 weeks in most cases.

[02:51] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" is checked.

[02:52] <sirdaz> lovely, something ill be trying first thing tomorrow :)
[02:52] <Woosta> wall0159: does it appear in /dev/disk/by-id/ ? If so, try mounting it manually ..

[02:53] <Cooner750> anyone? about the services manager?
[02:53] <sirdaz> I love the new installion for ubuntu
[02:53] <brispet1> nobody has an idea why my two computers with ubuntu show identical bogus mac address's on my router when ifconfig show the correct mac address's on the respective machines?
[02:54] <wall0159> Woosta: That's cool! I've never looked at that before! ;-) But unfortunately no - only Ata and usb
[02:54] <sm> LjL: is that for me ?
[02:54] <sirdaz> ita definately got to be one of the most original ways
[02:54] <wall0159> Woosta: ahh ;-) ok
[02:54] <wall0159> Woosta: nope. can't mount it..
[02:54] <BlackHand> brispet: crazy router ?
[02:54] <LjL> sm: yeah. anyway i don't know about rhythmbox, but i suppose you could use play or alsaplay for that
[02:54] <Woosta> wall0159: does it have a written disk in it?
[02:54] <brispet1> all my other machines show up correctly
[02:54] <sm> well thx, but I'm asking about rhythmbox
[02:54] <wall0159> Woosta: yup.
[02:55] <sm> and if it can't do that, is it not a shocking oversight! :)
[02:55] <Woosta> Then I can't really help you any further sorry ..

[02:58] <belathor> Hi all! I've got a weird problem with my keyboard. Something is causing it not to work at all in the X windows system. All I can do is logon. Thanks for any help you can give me!
[03:00] <LjL> Bonez56: uninstaller
[03:00] <polpak> Bonez56: all the wine programs are stored in the wine directory .wine in your home folder. I generally make different wine directories for each program. so I can remove them by just deleting the directory
[03:00] <Bonez56> polpak: thanks, ill check it out
[03:01] <LjL> Bonez56, polpak: err, however uninstaller is there exactly to avoid such drastic measures...
[03:01] <polpak> LjL: I like to keep my windows apps separated anyway
[03:01] <cappiz> someone here suing fluxbox ? :)
[03:02] <Bonez56> LjL: how do I run uninstaller?
[03:02] <LjL> Bonez56: by typing "uninstaller"
[03:02] <Bonez56> LjL: lol ok cool

[03:03] <Bonez56> LjL: that was easier than I thought :) cheers
[03:03] <CrazyDoode> hmm.. that would be a ->decent<- install guide. Descent is a different game.
[03:03] <Who_> hiya all
[03:03] <polpak> Paddy_EIRE: there's one in the forums in the gaming section
[03:03] <polpak> Paddy_EIRE: also the instructions on Bioware's site work too

[03:04] <Keaton> When I run the Live CD on my G3 Apple, I get a blank screen. Any solutions?
[03:04] <Who_> is there anyone who can very quickly give me brief instructions on how to reinstall Grub (housemate has just done a Win Install) and wants Grub back so she can choose
[03:04] <Ol_Guy> riddlebox, I have EasyJoiner - a Win app
[03:04] <scipio_africanus> !grub
[03:04] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:05] <Who_> that is a good bot :)
[03:06] <wheels3572> How do you go about making shortcuts if they are not in the keyboard shortcuts section I forgot how to access the 2 places I need to be to do it
[03:07] <cappiz> someone here using fluxbox from ubuntu, im wondering how can i change the xmd login manager window, as it is now its the OLD debian login manager
[03:08] <javiolo> cappiz Im on fluxbox
[03:08] <majd> hey
[03:08] <riddlebox> Ol_Guy, does it work under wine?
[03:09] <Ol_Guy> don't know
[03:09] <majd> i'm installing ubuntu on my friend's old laptop, the live cd takes ages to load and the install doesn't even load
[03:09] <majd> i got the cd from ShipIT
[03:09] <majd> is there a way to run a non - gui version of the installation?
[03:09] <cappiz> javiolo how can i change it :) ?
[03:09] <LjL> riddlebox: apt-cache show mpgtx
[03:09] <rsteele> don't know
[03:09] <Who_> majd. There is the alternate install cd
[03:09] <javiolo> you want to change the apparence of gdm _
[03:10] <javiolo> I dont understand what you said
[03:10] <majd> who
[03:10] <Who_> majd: I'm just getting you a link :)

[03:11] <mvillaronga> Anyone know if its possible to move your root partition to a new drive?  I know that it is possible to do it with the home partion.
[03:11] <javiolo> cappiz google for it
[03:11] <AndyCooll_> majd: the "alternate" version is just like the "traditional" Ubuntu install. It is however only available as a download from the Ubuntu website
[03:11] <Who_> majd: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - choose a location from there, then scroll down to the 'alternate install cd'
[03:12] <javiolo> cappiz Ive seen some tutorials about customizing xdm
[03:12] <Keaton> When I run the Live CD on my G3 Apple, I get a blank screen. Any solutions?
[03:12] <Who_> majd: and when everything is installed you may want to consider running xubuntu (in fact, you may want to start with xubuntu). It is lighter weight and faster on older machines. What kind of spec is the laptop?
[03:12] <eigenlambda> keaton: try disable framebuffer?
[03:12] <eigenlambda> lol check f1 in start screen
[03:12] <javiolo> cappiz is that what you want __

[03:16] <mvillaronga> Any one know if its possible to copy your root directory out to a new partition and still have it functional?
[03:16] <sm> answer from #rhythmbox:
[03:16] <sm> (06:12:40 PM) moch: in 0.9.5 or later, you should be able to use rhythmbox-client --play-uri <file>
[03:16] <sm> (06:13:45 PM) moch: that doesn't work very well if the file isn't already in your library, though
[03:17] <micahcowan> mvillaronga: don't see why not, but you'd probably need to edit fstab?
[03:17] <wheels3572> Anyone in here know about adding shortcuts that's not in the keyboard shortcuts section?
[03:17] <rayston> ls
[03:17] <mvillaronga> yeah figuring id need to edit fstab and grub's conf file
[03:17] <rayston> hey, is it normal than when compiling something from CVS I have to use sudo to do it?
[03:17] <sm> bye all
[03:17] <micahcowan> mvillaronga: seems like it'd be fine, why wouldn't it be?
[03:17] <rayston> as in sudo ./autogen.sh
[03:18] <mvillaronga> *shrug* never tried something like it before, have done it with /home
[03:18] <mvillaronga> the thoery seemed sound but Im still pretty new to all this
[03:19] <micahcowan> I think grub's conf file isn't actually on the root partition, typically. Or do you not have a separate boot partition?
[03:19] <micahcowan> I think /etc/grub.conf is usually a symlink into /boot...
[03:19] <mvillaronga> I have a seperate / /boot /home partitions
[03:19] <mvillaronga> I wnat to move /home to my new big drive
[03:20] <rayston> oh, thats wierd, I just asked about that on the ubuntu forums and somebody gave me a big walkthrough on how to do that
[03:20] <mvillaronga> and then recoombine the / and /home on the old one and move root back to it
[03:20] <mvillaronga> I may have read the post, I did a bit of digging on the formuns and google
[03:21] <rayston> I just posted today on it, not more than a few hours ago
[03:21] <mvillaronga> but all the talk was about /home and not /root
[03:21] <mvillaronga> I'll go peek
[03:21] <mvillaronga> research was earlier, the driver just came intoday :)
[03:21] <rayston> his suggestion was to make an image of the whole partition and then "restore" it to the new drifve, then edit fstab and grub
[03:21] <rayston> you need a live cd though
[03:22] <mvillaronga> I have one, have several actually
[03:22] <micahcowan> mvillaronga: I'm not sure I understand why you need to move root back and forth?
[03:22] <cs378> has anyone able to run successfully CS 1.6?
[03:22] <mvillaronga> I want to repartition the drive that it is one
[03:22] <nevyn> cs378: why would you want to?
[03:22] <mvillaronga> no more space on its partition
[03:23] <javiolo> firestarter runs when the computers starts _
[03:23] <mvillaronga> rayston:  which sub forom?  Adminsitration?
[03:23] <cs378> nevyn: because i want to play that game
[03:23] <javiolo> or when I enter in gnome
[03:23] <rayston> hey, is it normal than when compiling something from CVS I have to use sudo to do it?
[03:23] <micahcowan> mvillaronga: yeah, but, why would you need space on its partition if you're moving home /away/ from it, to a different drive?
[03:23] <rayston> as in sudo ./autogen.sh
[03:24] <Maquiavelo> Good evening, I'm reading a lot of tutorials about how to enable xgl on a Dapper installation, and they all say to aptitude install xserver-xgl, however it's not there

[03:24] <mvillaronga> I can move /home out to the new drive
[03:24] <wt8008> Maquiavelo: I recall you need to add some sources to the list
[03:25] <mvillaronga> I would like expand the / partition

[03:35] <p4> hi

[03:35] <roaet> err

[03:36] <rayston> hmm, wierd, I wonder what permission I have all wonky then, I did notice I had noexec on that drive which was keeping me from running ./autogen.sh at all, but even after I remounted it still needs the sudo to work

[03:37] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[03:37] <rayston> yah, i have to use sudo on .autogen and make both, on both drives
[03:37] <tailsfan> profoX': Why don't you use Geweled
[03:37] <MatthewV> thanks nalioth
[03:37] <harisund> I have a quick question. I want to try out some new applications direct from CVS and stuff... my question is will it break existing apps? As in I want to try out a new version of Gnome after it is installed or from CVS.. or gnome 2 beta 3.. will it break my existing gnome and gaim?
[03:37] <CrazyDoode> heh.. that was fast.
[03:37] <nalioth> harisund: use checkinstall
[03:38] <nalioth> !checkinstall
[03:38] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall  -  Please: Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page.
[03:38] <wheels3572> Can anyone help me setting up a keyboard shortcut for Gaim please I know it's not in the Keyboard Shortcuts section and I know there is 2 sections I have to edit I just forgot how to get there lol
[03:38] <georgette> hello every body
[03:38] <Shadowpillar> who here has a ULi Onboard NIC?
[03:38] <ablyss> wheels3572: you might consider trying xbindkeys
[03:38] <Shadowpillar> or an ASRock Dual 939?
[03:38] <Shadowpillar> I have gotten zero help on this
[03:38] <harisund> nalioth .. ok that sounds relatively safe, to know that a .deb will be created ... can I do that even for something as huge as Firefox/Gnome/KDE etc?
[03:38] <rayston> I even have to use sudo to do mkdir
[03:39] <u01p2109> when i change in xubuntu screen resolution, session is down and ask me to login
[03:39] <wheels3572> ablyss: Ok where can I get that?
[03:39] <nalioth> harisund: sure can
[03:39] <Shadowpillar> I cant be the only one with a problem with this
[03:39] <rayston> where would the permissions to fix that be?
[03:39] <georgette> hello kaiser
[03:39] <harisund> nalioth I want to try and make my system more gentoo style :) I already have my own custom kernel from vanilla sources...
[03:39] <micahcowan> rayston, mkdir where? in the current directory? Do ls -ld .
[03:39] <ablyss> wheels3572: sudo apt-get install xbindkeys
[03:39] <u01p2109> how can  i change that resolution
[03:39] <u01p2109> ?
[03:39] <prophet> hi fellas
[03:39] <georgette> hellos oscar
[03:40] <nalioth> harisund: perhaps LFS would be more to your liking
[03:40] <georgette> hello every body
[03:40] <Shadowpillar> !Uli
[03:40] <ubotu> I know nothing about Uli - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:40] <harisund> my biggest worry with installing packages from source .tar.gz packages is that the final step always throws around files in all corners of the machine and when I want to uninstall it I don't know where to hunt for those files ...
[03:40] <ablyss> wheels3572: also sudo apt-get install xbindkeys-config
[03:40] <georgette> hoe are you today
[03:40] <Shadowpillar> !realtek
[03:40] <ubotu> I know nothing about realtek - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:40] <micahcowan> rayston, sounds like mebbe you don't have write permissions to that dir?
[03:40] <nalioth> harisund: checkinstall will solve that problem
[03:40] <MatthewV> rayston, its normal to use sudo for mkdir if you do not have write permissions for the parent folder
[03:40] <georgette> willll????????????'
[03:41] <harisund> nalioth .. yes, hopefully now I can use dpkg --listfiles packagename .
[03:41] <georgette> why are yo crazy?
[03:41] <wheels3572> ablyss: E: Couldn't find package xbindkeys
[03:41] <Asterisk_Newbie> Hi all from Portugal :)
[03:41] <micahcowan> but not if it's in a subdir of a CVS working copy...
[03:41] <gnomefreak> georgette: join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[03:41] <will> Hi, I'm looking to use my laptop as a wireless bridge to connect my ethernet equipped desktop pc to my wireless router
[03:41] <RedGhost> anyone know the apt-get name for the firefox flash plugin?
[03:41] <will> Can anyone provide some assistance?
[03:42] <harisund> !ask
[03:42] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:42] <ablyss> wheels3572: hmm sorry.
[03:42] <gnomefreak> will: just tell us your issue please
[03:42] <will> i just did
[03:42] <will> Hi, I'm looking to use my laptop as a wireless bridge to connect my ethernet equipped desktop pc to my wireless router
[03:42] <georgette> hello gnome freak
[03:42] <gnomefreak> sorry i missed it will
[03:42] <ablyss> wheels3572: anyway, check it out on google.. as a last resort.. it does take some CLI work, but it works great
[03:42] <gnomefreak> georgette: this is a support channel not a general chat channel
[03:42] <prophet> is there a verson of flashplayer 9 for ubuntu yet?
[03:43] <gnomefreak> prophet:
[03:43] <gnomefreak> prophet: no
[03:43] <prophet> k
[03:43] <harisund> prophet has macromedia released flashplayer 9 for lnux yte?
[03:43] <sqrt7744> will: using your laptop as a "bridge" (windows speak) means using it as a router
[03:43] <prophet> probably not
[03:43] <gnomefreak> harisund: no
[03:43] <slowz3r> whats a code program to code python in ??
[03:43] <lophyte> can you use checkinstall to create non-source and metapackages?
[03:43] <gnomefreak> they just got flash 8 out the door
[03:43] <sqrt7744> the windows "internet connection bridge" is just a very primitive router app.
[03:43] <slowz3r> whats a good program to code python in
[03:43] <wheels3572> what repo is Checkinstall in?
[03:43] <will> but i dont want it to assign an ip address from it's dhcp server, i jsut want to use it as a "virtual" ethernet cord so to speak
[03:44] <gnomefreak> slowz3r: eric or idle are both good
[03:44] <will> i was able to do it on windows just dont know how on linus
[03:44] <gnomefreak> !info checkinstall

[03:47] <gnomefreak> gvr?
[03:47] <IRC> where is the original ubuntu artwork located on my computer?
 yeah i tried this it still doesnt use the card properly
[03:47] <Flav> ever since upgrading my hoary box to php4 (4.3.10-10ubuntu4.5) last night i'm getting sigsegv's from apache in the error.log - is there a simple way to install back to the previous version, or are historic versions not kept around on security.ubuntu.com?
[03:47] <gnomefreak> IRC: try locate artwork
[03:48] <profoX`> Shadowpillar: no
[03:48] <IRC> gnomefreak: thanks man
[03:48] <sqrt7744> Paddy: how many FPS does glxgears give you?
[03:48] <Paddy_EIRE> how do i do that
[03:48] <profoX`> tailsfan: because thats not the issue, the flash problem is the issue, the bejeweled flash game is just to show the problem, the problem also occurs on alot of other sites
[03:48] <profoX`> Firefox crashes often after viewing, or while viewing, flash content. Did anyone experience the same? I have a sample URL that crashes right at the beginning: http://www.popcap.com/gamepopup.php?theGame=diamondmine choose "simple" and start playing the game, it will crash after the first correct move, or does it work for you? please try :)
[03:48] <sqrt7744> open a terminal window, type glxgears -printfps
[03:48] <Shadowpillar> k
[03:49] <IRC> gnomefreak: i think i uninstalled my ubuntu artwork package accidentally. is there a place where i can get them back?
[03:49] <gnomefreak> IRC: synaptic
[03:49] <IRC> gnomefreak: it says its the latest version of ubuntu-artwork.
 do i have to wait fro it to stop
[03:50] <sqrt7744> paddy: no, press ctrl-c

[03:52] <Paddy_EIRE> no its 128 video ram 512ddr 1.9 athlon xp
[03:52] <sqrt7744> did easyubuntu give you an error when you asked it to setup your ati card?
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> i think maybe it did
[03:53] <sqrt7744> also, what model ATI is it?
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> ATI Radeon 9250
[03:53] <Amaranth> oh, those work out of the box
[03:53] <Amaranth> so easyubuntu probably broke it's already working functionality
[03:53] <GeorgeW> can ubuntu be installed on ntfs?
[03:53] <Amaranth> GeorgeW: no
[03:53] <GeorgeW> ta
[03:53] <IRC> is there a place where i can get the original ubuntu wallpaper?

[03:55] <Miyumi> Can someone help me find a way to make sites think Mozilla is Internet Explorer?
[03:55] <farous> Paddy_EIRE: are you running the open source or the property flgrx driver
[03:55] <Flav> Miyumi: change the user-agent string. http://www.granneman.com/webdev/browsers/mozillafirefoxnetscape/changemozillasuseragent/
[03:56] <IRC> amaranth: i uninstalled it b4 and i reinstalled it but im missing the new themes. all i have is the old square human toolbars and old icons. i also dont have any of the stock wallpapers
[03:56] <GeorgeW> so ubuntu must be installed on fat32?
[03:56] <Amaranth> IRC: hrm
[03:56] <Miyumi> Flav, thank you
[03:56] <profoX`> Firefox crashes often after viewing, or while viewing, flash content. Did anyone experience the same? I have a sample URL that crashes right at the beginning: http://www.popcap.com/gamepopup.php?theGame=diamondmine choose "simple" and start playing the game, it will crash after the first correct move, or does it work for you? ...now really, is it tht hard to just try and let me know? :(
[03:56] <wheels3572> Can someone look at this and tell me if it looks correct please?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18480
[03:56] <sqrt7744> paddy: after running it you'll have to restart X by logging out and typing ctrl-alt-backspace
[03:57] <Amaranth> GeorgeW: No, ubuntu uses a filesystem called ext3. It's better than ntfs and fat32.
[03:57] <GeorgeW> Amaranth: thanks mate
[03:57] <micahcowan> GeorgeW: other filesystems are also possible, but ext3 is the standard.
[03:57] <profoX`> i wouldn't say ext3 is better than ext3
[03:57] <Amaranth> profoX`: Epiphany locked up
[03:57] <profoX`> i mean ntfs
[03:57] <Hexidigital> wheels3572:: looks okay to me, but what's that bot thing at the end?
[03:58] <profoX`> Amaranth: strange, epiphany works fine !! but firefox doesnt
[03:58] <Amaranth> profoX`: but since flash is closed source we can't fix it
[03:58] <profoX`> with that flash content
[03:58] <Amaranth> profoX`: epiphany doesn't work here
[03:58] <jumbers> Is it possible to open a remote file in gedit, via SSH?
[03:58] <Amaranth> profoX`: how is ntfs better than ext3?
 iget this error when doing the nightlysnapshot python: can't open file 'easyubuntu.in': [Errno 2]  No such file or directory
[03:58] <sqrt7744> i hate pages that force upgarde to flash8.  GRR
[03:58] <profoX`> Amaranth: it works fine in Archlinux though
[03:58] <sqrt7744> paddy: ???  are you in the right directory?  Did you just copy and paste the lines from their webpage?
[03:59] <Flav> 88: me too - forced upgrades suck
[03:59] <Paddy_EIRE> yep
[03:59] <Amaranth> profoX`: I guess you could file a bug then. Maybe someone will be bored enough to debug why a binary blob is failing. :P
[03:59] <Hexidigital> jumbers:: can you use nano to edit?
[03:59] <jumbers> Hexidigital: I just find it annoying :-P
[03:59] <bimberi> jumbers: yes, use ssh -X, as long as gedit is on the remote machine
[03:59] <Amaranth> jumbers: yeah, but first go to Places->Connect to Server... and setup your ssh info
[03:59] <sqrt7744> paddy:  makes no sense.  type: sudo updatedb&&locate easyubuntu.in
[03:59] <profoX`> Amaranth: nah, i'll just find out myself :) that'll probably go faster, lol
[03:59] <jumbers> SSH is already set up
[03:59] <Hexidigital> jumbers:: ah... i'm not experienced w/ graphical ssh usage...
[04:00] <Amaranth> jumbers: you already did Places->Connect to Server...?

[04:00] <wheels3572> Hexidigital: What bot thing?
[04:01] <iyank4> ping me

[04:01] <Amaranth> iyank4: ping
[04:01] <Flav> Amaranth: sqrt7744 but i'm lazy

[04:01] <bimberi> lol
[04:01] <Amaranth> Flav: sq<tab>
[04:02] <profoX`> ttyfscker: there is no better way, flash8 doesnt exist on linux yet
[04:02] <slicslak> fresh install of ubuntu 6.6, uncommented and updated sources.list, but mythtv is no longer listed.   anyone know what's up with that?
[04:02] <Flav> Amaranth: yeah, forgot this client has tab expansion, too much ircii time
[04:02] <wheels3572> I cant get my sources.list file to save I will show you the error I keep getting 1 of 2 different errors
[04:02] <Hexidigital> wheels3572:: ah :)
[04:02] <Amaranth> ttyfscker: I just use firefox in wine for my flash needs, we won't see a new linux flash until flash 9
[04:03] <Amaranth> and if it doesn't support alsa i'm going to personally hunt down and maim the developer
[04:03] <beernutz> How do i install ubuntu on a raidcore sata raid array?  I cant seem to find much info on tho this is done..
[04:03] <lophyte> wow man..
[04:03] <lophyte> xubuntu is pretty awesome
[04:03] <wheels3572> E45: 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override)
[04:03] <wheels3572> If I do the !wq in VIM it gives me a shell 127
[04:03] <Amaranth> lophyte: cool
[04:03] <Amaranth> beernutz: never heard of it, sorry
[04:03] <ttyfscker> profoX`:: i have to take this course to prepare for LPI linux +, through cbt's skillsoft, and it requires flash 8 or above to take the course.  I have tried it with wine using firefox for windows and at the login page it says it cant detect my desktop settings in order to login.  its crazy to have to boot windows to take a linux course..
[04:04] <lufis> I compiled Cairo and used checkinstall to generate a deb package from the compiled source. However, the new installed version isn't taking precedence over the older Cairo. In Synaptic, the older one is libcairo, and the newer one is just cairo. Any ideas?
[04:04] <beernutz> Amaranth: its ok.  just hoping someone might have is all..
[04:04] <Amaranth> lufis: Stop. :P
[04:04] <Amaranth> lufis: The new version isn't faster.
[04:04] <Flav> wheels3572: try :w!
[04:04] <lufis> Amaranth: Well, alright. :-P but I wanted to give clearlooks-cairo a try
[04:04] <profoX`> ttyfscker: hahahaha that *is* crazy
[04:04] <Flav> wheels3572: the ! first means "do this in a shell" - the ! after means "force this action"
[04:05] <ICE> need help can get my nvidia 6600 gt to work
[04:05] <Amaranth> clearlooks-cairo should work with the version in dapper
[04:05] <Amaranth> unless that changed recently
[04:05] <ttyfscker> profoX`:: yes and its all adobe/macromedia's freakin fault!
[04:05] <ICE> does anyone have that card
[04:05] <lufis> Amaranth: It isn't :-(
[04:05] <Amaranth> !nvidia
[04:05] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:05] <sqrt7744> as if these "requires flash 8" pages actually need it for some technical reason
[04:05] <profoX`> ttyfscker: well, and also the guy that made the flash8 course ;)
[04:05] <sqrt7744> i mean, they are otherwise the same as they were 2 weeks ago...
[04:05] <Amaranth> sqrt7744: They need it because they were created with Flash 8 :P
[04:05] <ttyfscker> sqrt7744:: well it will load it without any errors with flash 7, but you cant see all of the flash buttons and applets
[04:05] <lophyte> anyone know an easy way to create metapackages?
[04:05] <wheels3572> Flav: I am doing this in a Terminal window so are you sayign I need 2 ! to force it?
[04:06] <ttyfscker> wheels3572:: are you trying to edit a readonly file as a normal user?
[04:06] <Flav> no, I'm saying to not use "!wq" and instead use "w!" and then "q" after
[04:06] <Flav> wheels3572: no, I'm saying to not use "!wq" and instead use "w!" and then "q" after
[04:06] <sqrt7744> ttyfscker: no, many just refuse to do anything with a message about why i should upgrade to flash 8.
[04:07] <MTecknology> Is synaptic a front end for apt-get or are they seperate?
[04:07] <lophyte> its a frontend
[04:07] <MTecknology> ok, ty
[04:07] <regeya> I should scroll back and see oh
[04:07] <regeya> I see
[04:07] <sqrt7744> hopefully gnash does doubletime on the catchup track
[04:07] <regeya> vi is so silly
[04:07] <ttyfscker> sqrt7744:: well flash 7 is too old for anything really
[04:07] <regeya> silly silly vi

[04:07] <ttyfscker> v4l2 doesnt even work on flash 7
[04:07] <Flav> element: send them to me and i'll play around with them to get it working
[04:08] <wheels3572> ttyfscker: Yes I am trying to edit sources.list and forgot to do what is it su -i?
[04:08] <iyank4> help me, how to configure debmirror only start at night
[04:08] <element> flav: mailto not found.  sorry, can't find your address.  maybe you could try helping instead of being sarcrastic.
[04:08] <ttyfscker> looks like there would be alpha /beta sources for flash 9 on linux somewhere.. has flash 9 not even began development in linux?
[04:08] <dicesquirrel> question... has anyone resolved the recent fglrx problems? If so, could you offer some advice to a Radeon 9000 Mobility user? This total lack of 3D acceleration is driving me up the wall.
[04:08] <joelbitar> Hey, if I apt-get remove a program, it's configuration files are still residing in /etc.. how do I automatically remove them ?
[04:09] <rowanjl> I've got some libs installed that no matter what I do, can't actualy be used by the programs I installed them for...
[04:09] <ttyfscker> wheels3572:: do sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:09] <wheels3572> DUH me that's it ty lol oh god lol
[04:09] <sqrt7744> ttyfscker: they may have begun development, but they don't share their devel code as far as i know.
[04:09] <rowanjl> the files are all in place, but when I try to compile the program, it can't find them
[04:09] <Flav> aww, but i like being sarcrastic!  almost as much fun as sarcasm!  actually, i don't even run X, so I'm not much help WRT configuration of X
[04:09] <jumbers> Jeez, I installed gedit on my server and it installed about 100 gnome libs!
[04:09] <ttyfscker> sqrt7744:: do you know of any flash 8 or newer clones for linux?
[04:10] <sqrt7744> ttyfscker: nope
[04:10] <prophet> whats the equivilant of DC++ on here?
[04:10] <prophet> i forgot
[04:10] <ttyfscker> i heard of gnash and gameswf.. but i dont really know if they are for use with a browser
[04:10] <element> will sudo X -configure help me setup my dual monitors?
[04:10] <Flav> prophet: what's DC++?
[04:10] <ttyfscker> prophet:: valknut
[04:10] <prophet> k
[04:10] <prophet> thanks
[04:10] <ttyfscker> np
[04:10] <rowanjl> so how can I make these bloody libs known?
[04:10] <ttyfscker> Flav:: its a p2p network
[04:11] <micahcowan> rowanji: did you install the development packages for those libs, and where are the libs located?
[04:11] <sqrt7744> well, it was nice y'all.  must must tend to my homework.
[04:11] <prophet> i got it all by myself using apt search im proud ofmytself aha
[04:12] <Flav> ttyfscker: danke
[04:12] <ttyfscker> ?
[04:12] <dicesquirrel> Does anyone know how I can get 3d acceleration working for a Radeon 9000 Mobility with fglrx?
[04:13] <micahcowan> ttyfscker, german for thank-you, I believe.
[04:13] <ttyfscker> oh
[04:13] <jumbers> Flash player is already up to 9 :(
[04:13] <rowanjl> micahcowan: yes for the first, no for the second, it was a source package
[04:13] <Flav> ttyfscker: yeah, thanks, sorry about that
[04:13] <River> can anyone tellme where to find an IRC channel so I can get help on postresql
[04:13] <ttyfscker> jumbers:: not in linux its not
[04:13] <slew> hi, where is a good place to get more mouse cursor themes?
[04:13] <jumbers> I know :(
[04:13] <jumbers> They're up to 9 and leave us in the dust
[04:13] <micahcowan> rowanji, "no" to where are the libraries located?
[04:14] <River> can anyone help with a postgresql installation questioon
[04:14] <jumbers> Does anybody know if installing it via WINE will work?
[04:14] <prophet> i feel good to tell pll we dont support flash over the phone haha
[04:14] <rowanjl> micahcowan: ?
[04:14] <element> anyone have some time to help me with dual monitors? I can't figure out how to get them working.
[04:14] <adu> River: #postgres
[04:14] <micahcowan> rowanji: you said "yes to the first, not to the second", but I only asked one yes/no question.
[04:14] <docta_v> is there an easy way to log every command that the root user runs?
[04:15] <micahcowan> rowanji: nevermind, I think I understand. two library packages, yes?
[04:15] <River> adu: thanks
[04:15] <micahcowan> sorry
[04:15] <rowanjl> yep :P
[04:15] <micahcowan> okay, so where are they located?
[04:15] <docta_v> i'd say the history file would work but that doesn't always work when you sudo to root or login multiple times as root
[04:15] <rowanjl> s/i/l too
[04:15] <ttyfscker> jumbers:: you can install it via wine, and use it with the win32 version of firefox or IE..
[04:15] <ttyfscker> but that isnt a solution
[04:15] <adu> River: although #postgresql has more people
[04:15] <jumbers> Damn
[04:15] <ttyfscker> it still doesnt work 100%
[04:15] <rowanjl> :P
[04:16] <ttyfscker> the .dll files for flash 8 / 9 needs to be converted to .so files for it to work on linux
[04:16] <River> adu: excellent ... tooo simple. Thanks
[04:16] <ttyfscker> if someone knew how to do that
[04:16] <katie_> can someone help me with an error message for burning?  i think maybe permissions arent assigned correctly
[04:16] <rowanjl> hmm

[04:18] <rowanjl> micahcowan: what type of files would make up the dev headers
[04:18] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: ogre3d
[04:18] <katie_> any ideas for troubleshooting?
[04:18] <micahcowan> yes, headers, typically.
[04:18] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, do you have to compile it?
[04:19] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: yep
[04:19] <rowanjl> micahcowan: .h?
[04:19] <micahcowan> yeah.
[04:19] <rowanjl> micahcowan: what would a .a be?
[04:20] <micahcowan> library. prolly in the main binary package.
[04:20] <TripleE> s_spiff: I followed this and it works...http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188974
[04:20] <rowanjl> micahcowan: well thats the thing, libdevil-dev didn't install any .h files
[04:20] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how to install the proper drivers for a ATI Radeon 9250 ,128
[04:20] <varsendaggr> http://web.media.mit.edu/~phaeton/ogre/OgreUbuntuInstallNotes.html
[04:20] <A21D3> hello ubuntu folks
[04:20] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, ^^^^
[04:20] <RedGhost> i have an apt-get installation frozen somehow, the flash plugin it says 'dpkg --configure -a' when i try to use apt-get
[04:21] <RedGhost> how can i cancel this installation
[04:21] <A21D3> i am trying to get a webcam to run in forefox
[04:21] <A21D3> fire
[04:21] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: read that already
[04:21] <varsendaggr> good
[04:21] <fit4lfe> "unable to copy users xauthorization file"
[04:21] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: but didn't understand it
[04:21] <fit4lfe> what did I do wrong
[04:22] <fit4lfe> I installed the graphics drivers for nvidia
[04:22] <ttyfscker> micahcowan:: where are you located
[04:22] <TripleE> RedGhost...I am not sure if you can.  Try a "apt-get -f install" to force it.
[04:22] <ttyfscker> micahcowan:: i was married to a cowan
[04:22] <fit4lfe> but restarted and can't open anything now
[04:22] <helpmeee> does someone know how to get a program under wine to send a udp packet?
[04:22] <fit4lfe> can this be fixed
[04:22] <micahcowan> ttyfscker: I'm in California.
[04:22] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, i would try to follow it and then ask questions about where you are stuck
[04:22] <RedGhost> TripleE, any apt-get commands yield  dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[04:22] <varsendaggr> ( i know you are doing that kindof)
[04:23] <varsendaggr> did you allready install all the required packages that they suggest on theat page?
[04:23] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: yes
[04:23] <ttyfscker> micahcowan:: i doubt you'd know anything about my ex then.. im in KY lol
[04:24] <River> can anyone help me verify a postgresql installation ... please
[04:24] <helpmeee> micahcowan: are you busy?
[04:24] <slew> hi, where is a good place to get more mouse cursor themes?
[04:24] <micahcowan> ttyfscker: Most of my family is out here. Was he/she Irish or Scottish descent?
[04:24] <fit4lfe> does anyone know what this error means when I try to open any apps or synaptic
[04:24] <der0b> rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(791)  <-- is there some way to find out what files weren't xferred?
[04:24] <micahcowan> helpmeee: I'm available
[04:24] <katie_> can some one tell me how to get mp3s onto an audio cd?  my serpentine copies audio cds but doesnt make cds out of mp3s.
[04:24] <fit4lfe> "faild to copy users xauthorization file"
[04:25] <ttyfscker> micahcowan:: no.. i dont know what they all are.. just white country ppl
[04:25] <helpmeee> micahcowan: im trying to get a program to work called kquery4 under wine.. it runs but it could not send a udp packet it sais.. not sure if this can be fixed
[04:25] <TripleE> RedGhost...When you try a "sudo dpkg --configure -a" what do you get?
[04:25] <fit4lfe> I get /dev/wacom errors too
[04:25] <fit4lfe> everytime I restart x
[04:25] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: the only error I get is about the missing libs...
[04:25] <micahcowan> ttyfscker: :-)
[04:25] <josesito_nd> can someone help me configure Cups?? (Cups asks me for a username and a password but doesn't accept it)
[04:25] <RedGhost> TripleE, it takes me back to installing the mozilla flash plugin, but it just hangs its been doing that for 15 minutes
[04:25] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, The ogre3d make process
[04:25] <varsendaggr> Sidenote: The ogre3d make process is, uh, "tempestuous" to say the least. it will not cooperate. you will have to do it several times over. it will hate you and tell dirty lies about you, but at the end of the day you will have wrestled it into submission.
[04:26] <varsendaggr> sounds tough.....
[04:26] <varsendaggr> are you building from cvs?\
[04:26] <TripleE> RedGhost...Have you tried a "sudo apt-get remove <package>"?
[04:26] <micahcowan> helpmeee, hmmm...
[04:26] <micahcowan> helpmeee: what exactly does the message say?
[04:27] <josesito_nd> someone....please?
[04:27] <helpmeee> micahcowan: it sais this directly in the kquery4 program under wine 7:19:07 PM [!]  ERROR [-8]  TgameUDP1.send could not send a UDP packet
[04:27] <dadgumit> hello all
[04:27] <RedGhost> TripleE, like i said any apt-get command gives dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[04:28] <spazzz> Evening everyone.  I just performed a Virgin install of Brezzy on my laptop.  It works fine as is and I'd like to upgrade to Dapper.  Can I do this from APT and if so can someone help me do so?
[04:28] <dadgumit> spazzz: there is an write up somewhwere, should be easy to google, basically  changing your sources.list file
[04:29] <spazzz> dadgumit: I checked there are several but none seem to work exactly.
[04:29] <spazzz> They assume I know something about the sources list and what not
[04:29] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: yep, building from cvs
[04:29] <nomasteryoda|w> help would appreciated, it would be
[04:29] <varsendaggr> did you do ./bootstrap?
[04:29] <micahcowan> helpmeee, I dunno: sounds outta my league
[04:29] <nomasteryoda|w> xorg-air is running, but compiz will not work
[04:29] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: yep
[04:30] <micahcowan> helpmeee, a wine-specific help forum might help?
[04:30] <varsendaggr> so you are stuck on ./configure?
[04:30] <helpmeee> micahcowan: now you know how I feel :) im just trying to find a good working quake3 browser and kquery was the one I used in windows
[04:30] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: yep
[04:30] <katie_> is there a ubuntu kernel problem that prevents me from burning mp3s into audio cd?
[04:30] <helpmeee> micahcowan: oh yeah duh :X that would have helped maybe haha
[04:30] <katie_> tried dragging and dropping in k3b and serpentine and it doesnt work
[04:31] <spazzz> So.... Can somebody help me with this?
[04:31] <rowanjl> before I was using the cvs it complained about not being able to find libdevil, now using the CVS it complains about the replacement for libdevil, FreeImage
[04:31] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, have you ap-tget installed build-essential?
[04:31] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: they should all be installed yes
[04:31] <nalioth> !upgrade > spazzz
[04:31] <TripleE> RedGhost...You will need to force the package.  "sudo dpkg --force /var/cache/apt/archives/<package>" or "sudo dpkg --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/<package>"
[04:32] <javiolo> whats the app that you can add a watch to your desktop and other things
[04:32] <micahcowan> helpmeee, you might look into qstat. I don't know anything about it, but check it out with synaptic, it might do what you need.
[04:32] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, sorry dude,  you must not need it bad enough
[04:32] <rowanjl> ?
[04:32] <spazzz> nalioth: I haddent seen that one.  Thank you i'll give it a try.
[04:32] <helpmeee> micahcowan: thanks again :) cyas man :)
[04:32] <nalioth> spazzz: it's easy
[04:33] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, move on
[04:33] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, it probably isn't worthit
[04:33] <fit4lfe> has anyone tried out xubuntu or nubuntu or fluxbuntu ?
[04:33] <nalioth> fit4lfe: lots of us, do you have a question?
[04:33] <lophyte> nubuntu? fluxbuntu?
[04:33] <Maquiavelo> Good evening, can someone check http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18481 and tell me why my TwinView configuration is only displaying in the right monitor and not the left one?
[04:34] <nomasteryoda|w> fluxbuntu?... cool
[04:34] <rowanjl> I've spent the past four days trying, not because its fun, but because my job depends on it.
[04:34] <javiolo> whats the app that you can add a watch to your desktop and other things
[04:34] <nalioth> lophyte: #nubuntu or #fluxbuntu
[04:34] <fit4lfe> is fluxubuntu stable
[04:34] <bitwise> has anyone installed ntfs-3g yet? i am not sure if its by design, but i used it to be able to write to an external usb drive, and now when i open the computer browser, i see '190GB Volume', which I cant access, and sdb1 which I can
[04:34] <lophyte> I happen to like xubuntu
[04:34] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, you need to specifiy east, west or some such ... right or left i would guess..
[04:34] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, what do yuou do?
[04:34] <nomasteryoda|w> lophyte, it is nice
[04:34] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  I do, as in "RightOf"
[04:34] <nomasteryoda|w> hmmm
[04:34] <rowanjl> work ;)
[04:34] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w: It's not booting up the other monitor.
[04:34] <fit4lfe> and when installing xgl you have to specify xubuntu correct
[04:35] <rowanjl> hmm "aclocal:acinclude.m4:326: warning: macro `AM_PATH_CPPUNIT' not found in library
[04:35] <rowanjl> "
[04:35] <nalioth> fit4lfe: go to #fluxbuntu and ask there
[04:35] <bitwise> this is the error i get when i access the 190GB Volume: mount: according to mtab, /dev/fuse is already mounted on /media/sdb1 mount failed
[04:35] <nomasteryoda|w> i wish i had my old xorg file from when i had twinview setup
[04:35] <River> i have setup a fresh install of 8.0 and when i run "sudo -u postgres psql" i get error "cannot connect to server" how do i fix the error ?
[04:35] <Flav> is there a place old versions of ubuntu packages are kept?  i want to downgrade my hoary to php4=4:4.3.10-10ubuntu4.4 (the 4.5 one sigsegv's in my php pages) but it's gone from security.ubuntu.com
[04:35] <nomasteryoda|w> just got new monitor from the trash - 17"LCD and need to set that up
[04:35] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, i have no idea what that means    did yo get over your devillib?
[04:35] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  The only thing remotely close to something in Xorg log is (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device CRT-0's EDID; cannot compute DPI
[04:36] <Maquiavelo> (WW) NVIDIA(0):     from EDID.
[04:36] <varsendaggr> you can install libs it wants and symlink them to /usr/bin
[04:36] <javiolo> whats the app that adds widgets and a bar to the desktop
[04:36] <javiolo> !widgets
[04:36] <varsendaggr> that is a hack   but it may work
[04:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about widgets - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:36] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: if you mean did I make ogre find it, then no. I downloaded the cvs hoping it could use freeimage
[04:36] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, you using 2 crts?
[04:36] <rowanjl> but then it can't find freeimage
[04:36] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Correct
[04:36] <nomasteryoda|w> k
[04:36] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  And I have the connectedmonitor as crt,crt
[04:36] <fit4lfe> !xgl
[04:36] <nomasteryoda|w> that would be identical to my old setup then
[04:36] <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
[04:37] <nomasteryoda|w> give me five min.
[04:37] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Thank you, my xorg.conf is in the pastebin, let me know if you need the URL
[04:37] <nomasteryoda|w> i'll paste mine too

[04:43] <PuGz> spazzz: dapper drake
[04:43] <PuGz> ?
[04:44] <Maquiavelo> spazzz:  If you mean the code name, It's Dapper Drake.
[04:44] <spazzz> Ok then thats what I want then.. Thanks
[04:44] <PuGz> anyone here use fglrx?
[04:44] <nalioth> River: try #postgresql if you don't get any answers here
[04:44] <PuGz> My module aint loading no more
[04:44] <PuGz> :(
[04:44] <ColdFyre> !op
[04:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about op - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu

[04:44] <varsendaggr> rowanjl,
[04:44] <varsendaggr> ^^^
[04:45] <River> nalioth: thanks .. am trying both an no-one can help so far, also can't find fix in the online docs
[04:45] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: thats the only thing I have not tried, thansk :)
[04:45] <spazzz> ALright then the system appears to be Upgrading.  Thanks everyone and thanks for the quick answers :-)
[04:45] <nalioth> ColdFyre: what factoid were you after?
[04:46] <ColdFyre> i didnt mean to do that
[04:46] <bitwise> is vlc the way to go for a media player?
[04:47] <varsendaggr> rowanjl, did you find anything else
[04:47] <varsendaggr> bitwise, no
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> vlc is nice
[04:47] <fit4lfe> damn dapper with nvidia drivers is so much faster then windows
[04:47] <varsendaggr> !mplayer
[04:47] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer/Compile to compile it from source or enable multiverse repo and type sudo apt-get install mplayer for more info please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> totem with gstreamer works well too on ubunut
[04:47] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[04:47] <rowanjl> varsendaggr: only tutorials on writing a 3d engine ;)
[04:47] <fit4lfe> !xen

[04:47] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, vlc plays ALOT of different formats, so does mplayer... but if you want a media library, you need something like rhythmbox or songbird
[04:47] <varsendaggr> what about axiom   or irrlicht?
[04:47] <stormchas3r> I have a ip addy but cannot get to the net, any help
[04:48] <outlawsbba> hi
[04:48] <outlawsbba> ronin u here
[04:48] <bitwise> cool.. i have been using totem with gstreamer.. is mplayer just more robust, more stable? what is the benefit
[04:48] <RedGhost> is there a windows codec pack for dapper? i remember in an older version it was like "wincodecs" from apt
[04:48] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, did you look at this one ... http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=209519
[04:48] <outlawsbba> i like totem-xine more
[04:48] <nomasteryoda|w> i can't find my config files... =(
[04:49] <TripleE> RedGhost...w32codecs
[04:49] <outlawsbba> i cant make gstreamer work with wmv
[04:49] <varsendaggr> bitwise, more robust    can play just about anything.....
[04:49] <WelfareQueen> I'm adding a 2nd SCSI disk. Using fdisk I'm asked to create a primary or extended. What is the correct option for a 2nd (or 3rd etc) disk?
[04:49] <godtvisk1n> I have two problems with audacity: When I click "About audicty" it just shows squares. Then when I try to record a second track, after the first, the pitch is changed very low, to garbles. I am using vesion 1.2.4b-2ubuntu2 What can I do?
[04:49] <varsendaggr> i have yet to get gstreamer working
[04:49] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, mplayer has a longer history of being reliable and good, tho gstreamer is catching up.
[04:49] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, also the mplayer-firefox plugin works alot better than the totem one
[04:49] <outlawsbba> hey is there anyone here who has there hands free to help me ?
[04:49] <nomasteryoda|w> varsendaggr, working fine here... found the info in the forums and on that evil guide
[04:49] <RedGhost> TripleE, it is not available it seems
[04:50] <nomasteryoda|w> outlawsbba, just ask
[04:50] <outlawsbba> aah
[04:50] <outlawsbba> i have been having this problem
[04:50] <outlawsbba> when u browse my system
[04:50] <nomasteryoda|w> just a few spare braincells are available
[04:50] <outlawsbba> everything
[04:50] <outlawsbba> kde sayss
[04:50] <bitwise> DarkMageZ: mm, that might sell me.. firefox integration with totem doesnt seem available? it spawns the app separatly
[04:50] <varsendaggr> hmmm    i can watch streaming video  with one line on the cli
[04:50] <outlawsbba> error loading kio file
[04:50] <TripleE> if you search ubuntuforums.org for restricted formats, you will find a howto
[04:50] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Looking
[04:50] <TripleE> It is not in the repositories
[04:50] <RedGhost> alright
[04:50] <nomasteryoda|w> just type instead of doing return at each line outlawsbba
[04:50] <RedGhost> it was in the past =(
[04:50] <WelfareQueen> Hello. I'm adding a 2nd SCSI disk. Using fdisk I'm asked to create a primary or extended. What is the correct option for a 2nd (or 3rd etc) disk?
[04:51] <outlawsbba> i am using SimpleMepis 3.4 aah ok sorry
[04:51] <TripleE> RedGhost...From what I understand, it was a legal thing.
[04:51] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, firefox integration with totem is available... but the version in dapper is crap... and i can't say that the latest has improved enough
[04:51] <nomasteryoda|w> WelfareQueen, you can do it anyway you want because it is a second physical disk
[04:51] <outlawsbba> this is my error klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_file'.
[04:51] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Ok, I ran nvidia-settings, but it only finds ONE of the CRT monitors, how weird.
[04:51] <WelfareQueen> nomasteryoda: do what?
[04:51] <nomasteryoda|w> just no more than 4 primary parts ... is the general rule for single drives
[04:52] <Andy_Leung> Hi, any clue to customize the bootup processes/services? because I've found that there are many services that are not used at all, at least, for me.
[04:52] <bitwise> how would one enable that DarkMagez?
[04:52] <primal> hello all
[04:52] <WelfareQueen> oh... a primary?
[04:52] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, that is kinda weird
[04:52] <nomasteryoda|w> sure WelfareQueen
[04:52] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w: Indeed
[04:52] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, do you have universe enabled?
[04:52] <WelfareQueen> nomasteryoda: Thank you for your time.
[04:52] <bitwise> yep
[04:52] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Before I activated the TwinView options, it was using the other monitor, once I activated TwinView and added the options, It just stopped using the other monitor and started using this, so the monitor is working
[04:53] <nomasteryoda|w> the pastebin is what Maquiavelo
[04:53] <primal> i have a question about xorg.conf
[04:53] <nomasteryoda|w> what=where
[04:53] <nomasteryoda|w> ask primal.. .don't ask to ask..
[04:53] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer"
[04:53] <nomasteryoda|w> we aim to please
[04:54] <primal> i just switched from an old nvidia card to an equally old radeon 7200
[04:54] <nomasteryoda|w> ewwwww
[04:54] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[04:54] <Flav> I just filed 53581 - anyone know of a channel where i can check to see if some devs are around that want me to try some investigation?
[04:54] <fit4lfe> !xgl
[04:54] <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
[04:54] <primal> i had to use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[04:54] <Rowanaki> Could someone help me configure WPA in Dapper?
[04:55] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, yes
[04:55] <bitwise> DarkMageZ: oops i thought we were talking about totem
[04:55] <primal> all worked just fine, except now the display is off
[04:55] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, so you want to use the fglrx drivers instead
[04:55] <primal> well, not lined up with the monitor
[04:55] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, oh, the totem-firefox plugin is, hmm, gimme a se
[04:55] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Excuse me?
[04:55] <outlawsbba> they dont support below ati radeon 8500
[04:55] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, second*
[04:55] <primal> it's shifted to the right
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, sorry... i meant your pastebin for xorg
[04:56] <primal> yoda, how do i switch?
[04:56] <VolVE> Ok, I'm running Dapper server, and I only have the default apt sources setup, and after installing Apache2 it tells me it can't find apache2.conf... how come the packages don't install it? :-/
[04:56] <bitwise> i think i found it
[04:56] <primal> and will this new driver fix the right shift?
[04:56] <bitwise> totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> outlawsbba, sadly true... my laptop will not use it
[04:56] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18481
[04:56] <DarkMageZ> bitwise, thats the one
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, should
[04:57] <Jinux> Hi anyone knows how to customize the startup services as well as number of terminals? because I have Athlon700 256MB only and I wanna spare some memory for some Java programming.
[04:57] <outlawsbba> :) i also had that problem
[04:57] <TripleE> primal, do you have an LCD?
[04:57] <primal> yes, tripleE, i do
[04:57] <outlawsbba> u should use the Ati driver or the Vesa driver
[04:57] <bitwise> thanks.. now what is xine and should i be interested in it hehe
[04:57] <nomasteryoda|w> yes it is nice too
[04:57] <nomasteryoda|w> i have them all actually
[04:57] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[04:57] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  What do you think?
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> with xine you can be "Master of the Universe"
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, still analyzing
[04:58] <TripleE> primal, I had the same issue with my nvidia card.  When the drivers were not installed I had to push the auto-adjust button on my monitor to fix it.
[04:58] <primal> nomasteryoda|w, how do i use the fglrx driver?
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> !ati
[04:58] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> look there primal
[04:58] <River> how do i install postgres 8.1.4 from here: http://ftp.port80.se/ubuntu/pool/main/p/postgresql-8.1/
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, so you want composite?
[04:59] <Rowanaki> Could someone help me configure WPA in Dapper?
[04:59] <nomasteryoda|w> or compiz
[04:59] <primal> TripleE, that would work except my wife wouldn't like having to push the button every time she switches the KVM back to windows
[04:59] <nomasteryoda|w> lol
[04:59] <primal> thanks yoda
[04:59] <nomasteryoda|w> np
[04:59] <outlawsbba> hi i also have a problem when i try to browse my hard drive kde gives me error messages like  "klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_file'."
[04:59] <TripleE> primal, I only had to do it once.  I have a KVM too.  I guess the monitor has a memory or something
[04:59] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  I want dual head
[05:00] <TripleE> primal, I am looking for the ati driver install howto on the ubuntuforums.org
[05:00] <nomasteryoda|w> right
[05:00] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, so you have 2 separate screens instead of one large one or one single one
[05:00] <karl> !ati
[05:00] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:00] <primal> TripleE, that auto-adjust did the trick. who knew?
[05:00] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, you can even have one running one session and one running another
[05:00] <outlawsbba> everybode is repeating itself
[05:00] <Shadow_pillar> !asrock
[05:00] <nomasteryoda|w> i saw that somewhere
[05:00] <ubotu> I know nothing about asrock - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:00] <River> nalioth: how do I install postgresql 8.1.4 from here: http://ftp.port80.se/ubuntu/pool/main/p/postgresql-8.1/
[05:01] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  One desktop, 2 screens.
[05:01] <nomasteryoda|w> ya
[05:01] <nomasteryoda|w> ok
[05:01] <phunkalicious> how come my menu icons always take so long to load?
[05:01] <nomasteryoda|w> so widescreen
[05:01] <nomasteryoda|w> in effect
[05:01] <nomasteryoda|w> same as my old setup
[05:01] <nalioth> River: the postgresql in the repos isn't sufficient?
[05:01] <TripleE> primal, that pissed me off for the a couple of hours.  Then I stumbled across it.
[05:01] <TripleE> primal, this may help for installing the ati drivers...http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191944&highlight=ati+driver+install
[05:01] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Pretty much
[05:02] <peja> hi
[05:02] <nomasteryoda|w> i think i found my reference file
[05:02] <primal> now on to another question: with my older video card, movies were not showing up. i came here and someone had me run a small program that changed some video settings. anyone know what that program might be so i can change it back?
[05:02] <nalioth> River: for those (and they are labelled 'ubuntu') just download the deb you are wanting and watch ubotu
[05:02] <nalioth> !deb
[05:02] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[05:02] <River> nalioth: repos does not hold the latest version, when i installed 8.0 from repos and it failed, i was advised to install 8.1.4 fromthe link
[05:03] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo,  grrr way too old it was... looking elsewhere
[05:03] <Maquiavelo> Ok going to restart X and try something brb
[05:03] <River> nalioth: thanks to you and the Bot
[05:03] <HellDragon> :)
[05:03] <nalioth> River: good luck
[05:03] <primal> i'm trying to watch some Lost episodes and they seem a bit jumpy

[05:03] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, with which player?
[05:03] <primal> the files are high def so it's not the quality
[05:03] <nalioth> primal: what is your hardware and version of Ubuntu ?
[05:03] <primal> mplayer i think
[05:04] <dicesquirrel> Okay, who do I have to give mouflove to get hardware acceleration for OpenGL with fglrx and a Radeon 9000 Mobility card? It broke a few updates ago, and I'm pulling my hair out with frustration. It's maddening.
[05:04] <beyondx> hello
[05:04] <primal> latest
[05:04] <primal> dapper
[05:04] <whyameye> I'm on a MacBook and since there is no HD activity light provided on the case itself I'd love to get a utility that shows HD activity on the Gnome panel or something. Anybody know of something available like this?
[05:04] <beyondx> every one
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> xine might perform better
[05:04] <primal> hardware is anything but latest
[05:04] <nalioth> whyameye: try conky
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, you have hdparm setup?
[05:04] <primal> an old p3 933mhz
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> hdparm speeds up drive thruput
[05:04] <nalioth> primal: then that is probably it, Hi Def video content takes a bunch of CPU power to decode
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> not a problem primal
[05:05] <Maquiavelo> nomasteryoda|w:  Back, didn't work
[05:05] <primal> nomasteryoda|w, probably not since i don't recognize that name
[05:05] <gavagai> whyameye, gkrellm might do that
[05:05] <Jinux> Hello, does anyone know the name of the command that can install/remove boot services?
[05:05] <nomasteryoda|w> nalioth, i have a 9xx mhz amd laptop with only 256mb ram and it does it fine for me
[05:05] <primal> well, i used to have this radeon 7200 in and all worked fine
[05:05] <nomasteryoda|w> just sec primal
[05:05] <nevyn> Jinux: cp ?
[05:05] <nevyn> Jinux: actually mv
[05:05] <nalioth> nomasteryoda|w: interesting.  do you have the same pkgs installed on both?
[05:06] <whyameye> gavagai: gkrellm will do it but it's just so overkill and it doesn't install in the panel. HD activity takes too much display space and is basically a light show.
[05:06] <primal> i switched to nvidia trying to get tv-out to work, couldn't, so i switched back after a few months
[05:06] <nevyn> Jinux: update-rc.d if you can be bothered getting your head around it's syntax
[05:06] <Jinux> nevyn: that's it? then how about /etc/init.d/rc.d? do I need to do anything from there?
[05:06] <nomasteryoda|w> nalioth, i think so... that system is at my other place though
[05:06] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone here gotten Akamaru working?
[05:06] <nomasteryoda|w> can't check it
[05:06] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, You around?
[05:06] <Jinux> nevyn: o...yeah..that's the one...probably...so update-rc.d has some params that I can install/remove the serices, right?
[05:06] <bigfoot1> ekiga is not working for me to make sip calls. does anybody else have any suggestions?
[05:06] <primal> this ati card used to show video just fine with no jumpiness
[05:07] <DBO> FunnyLookinHat, yes
[05:07] <bigfoot1> what is an easy to use SIP softphone?
[05:07] <nevyn> Jinux: it's sysvinit.. just mv the symlink from SXXservice to KXXservice in the directory of your current runlevel
[05:07] <DBO> FunnyLookinHat, yeah I got akamaru working
[05:07] <nevyn> bigfoot1: twinkle wfm
[05:07] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, hdparm will help ...
[05:07] <bigfoot1> nevyn: wfm?
[05:07] <nomasteryoda|w> let me find it
[05:07] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, what package do I need to install to get akamaru to compile, it's saying I don't have glib.h but i installed libglib-2.0-dev
[05:07] <nevyn> bigfoot1: works for me
[05:07] <Jinux> nevyn: S means  what? and K means what? sorry, I am total noob...
[05:07] <nevyn> S means start and K means kill
[05:07] <bigfoot1> nevyn: thanks. am installing it now
[05:08] <bigfoot1> how it wfm too
[05:08] <nevyn> so in /etc/rc3.d/* ...
[05:08] <primal> give me a sec guys. daughters crying
[05:08] <Shadow_pillar> question time!
[05:08] <bigfoot1> sorry. i meant to say HOPE it wfm, too
[05:08] <nevyn> heh
[05:08] <nevyn> I got that
[05:08] <Shadow_pillar> who here has an asrock mobo or anything that uses the Realtek 8201?
[05:08] <Shadow_pillar> for networking
[05:08] <nevyn> eww asrock
[05:08] <DBO> FunnyLookinHat, put the whole error in pastebin please
[05:08] <Shadow_pillar> nevyn: yeah yeah, it's a temp thing until I can get an asus
[05:09] <Jinux> nevyn: so you mean I just need to remove those S and K corresponding files from /etc/rc3.d/ would remove one service from TTY3 right?
[05:09] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, OOh i just figured it out
[05:09] <nevyn> not tty3
[05:09] <nevyn> from runlevel 3
[05:09] <Shadow_pillar> so insteado f the remarks, can I please get some help on the issue?
[05:09] <nevyn> Jinux: grep default /etc/inittab
[05:09] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, sorry to bother you, i just tried one last random package and it worked...  : )  be back later  :)
[05:09] <Jinux> nevyn: okay...what's this grep default /etc/inittab for?
[05:09] <Shadow_pillar> I cant get the onboard lan working
[05:09] <River> nalioth: do you know which repos i need to add to install postgresql 8.1 ?
[05:09] <Shadow_pillar> and yes I have the tulip driver loaded
[05:10] <wastrel> mmm tulip
[05:10] <nalioth> River: does the deb you got not work?
[05:10] <nevyn> Jinux: tell you what the default runlevel is. (which rc?.d is active)
[05:10] <dicesquirrel> So, should I give up on fglrx, or what?
[05:10] <Flav> is there a place old versions of ubuntu packages are kept?  i want to downgrade my hoary to php4=4:4.3.10-10ubuntu4.4 (the 4.5 one sigsegv's in my php pages) but it's gone from security.ubuntu.com
[05:10] <River> nalioth: it says it needs "libc6"
[05:10] <Jinux> nevyn: thank you so much...I think I got what you've told me....one more question, would you provide me some tutorials on these startup services thingy?  I appreciate your help.
[05:10] <bimberi> !info postgresql-8.1
[05:10] <ubotu> postgresql-8.1: object-relational SQL database, version 8.1 server. In repository main, is optional. Version 8.1.4-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 2952 kB, installed size 12608 kB
[05:11] <dicesquirrel> Give up any hope of ever getting Enemy Territory working again? Maybe build a time travel machine to a few weeks ago when OpenGL actually worked?
[05:11] <nevyn> Jinux: umm google for sysVinit tutorial?
[05:11] <nomasteryoda|w> Maquiavelo, try changing the dimensions to 2560x960 under section "Screen"
[05:11] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  did you install the fglrx drivers after the kernel upgrade?
[05:11] <nalioth> River: ah, then you're probably out of luck (upgrading your libc6 will take you to edgy eft prematurely)
[05:11] <prophet> can u connet to a ftp from the terminal
[05:11] <Jinux> nevyn: I thought sysVinit is for Unix only.....hehehe...thanks
[05:11] <nomasteryoda|w> that would make the dualsetup right from what i used 2 years back
[05:11] <mathieu_> what is done to the ubuntu kernel to allow things like sanners to be accessed by users ?
[05:11] <primal> nomasteryoda|w: how do i run hdparm?
[05:12] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: everything is up to date, according to apt-get
[05:12] <Jinux> prophet: just use ftp if you have installed it.
[05:12] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, xine also seems to run hd videos better
[05:12] <prophet> i have gftp
[05:12] <bigfoot1> nevyn: u on kubuntu?
[05:12] <nomasteryoda|w> primal, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-16360.html
[05:12] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  i had to reinstall the fglrx driver after the kernel upgrade this week
[05:13] <nevyn> bigfoot1: umm debian sid ;)
[05:13] <nevyn> on this machinee
[05:13] <nomasteryoda|w> that should help
[05:13] <VolVE> Ok, so after I've removed some packages (apache, php) when I go to reinstall them I get "Not replacing deleted config file" - any way to get around that?
[05:13] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: how might I do that?
[05:13] <bigfoot1> nevyn: gnome?
[05:13] <nevyn> bigfoot1: I prefer kde.
[05:13] <Jinux> prophet: yes but gftp is not running in a terminal...
[05:13] <bigfoot1> nevyn: ah
[05:13] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI    the install lines
[05:13] <nomasteryoda|w> bbl
[05:14] <nevyn> bigfoot1: I consider gnome unusable
[05:14] <Jinux> nevyn: why do you think KDE is better?
[05:14] <redcard> nevyn: And yet, ironically, I use it ;)
[05:15] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: so I should just apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx and then install it?
[05:15] <River> nalioth: that was when i tried the 8.1.4-4 but when i try the 8.1.4 package manager says "same version is available in a software channel"
[05:15] <redcard> Gnome, KDE, same difference. It's no different than Windows users running Borland based apps and MFC based apps and .NET apps and not knowing the difference.  I've never understood why people in linux draw the distinction
[05:15] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  no need to remove, just install it
[05:15] <nevyn> people use it.. I don't understand why but I end up just fighting the ui all the time.. if I thought that was productive I'd use windows .
[05:15] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: I have. It's completely up to date, and not working, that's what I'm saying, and why I'm so frustrated.
[05:16] <nalioth> River: i'm afraid you are at a standstill on this.  you may have better luck compiling it from source (use checkinstall if you do)
[05:16] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  so you've installed since the recent kernel upgrade?
[05:16] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: "xorg-driver-fglrx is already the newest version." is the line from apt-get
[05:17] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: there's absolutely nothing left to upgrade. So why is it not working?
[05:17] <wastrel> ok.  dicesquirrel...  did you do the  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  and choose fglrx?
[05:18] <ICE> !xgl
[05:18] <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
[05:18] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: yes, and the new xorg.conf it generates sends me straight to the commandline, no gdm
[05:19] <bigfoot1> nevyn: it's asking for which "nic" network interface i want to use. which should i choose?
[05:19] <Jinux> nevyn: how about the performance, I tried Gnome 2.14, pretty good, how about KDE comparing to that? how fast and is Gnome heavy in terms of memory usage?
[05:19] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: I mean, I do fglrxinfo and it gives me some lines about Mesa. How do I fix that? That seems like it could be the root of the problem.
[05:19] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  that's your fglrx driver not working -  check /var/log/Xorg.0.log  for errors
[05:19] <farous__> dicesquirrel: how did you install the fglrx driver from repos or ati installer
[05:20] <dicesquirrel> farous_: repos, farous, obviously, if I followed the instructions from the Ubuntu wiki, which I did
[05:20] <bigfoot1> nevyn: and how can i do an echo test?
[05:21] <farous__> dicesquirrel: did you install the linux-restricted-modules package
[05:21] <Ballsy> Hi.  My on-board SiS 760 vid card is causing probs when I try to fire up the Dapper LiveCD.  According to forums here http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?s=3ac0ca07316f0020bc030a69bd7d58ae&t=421279&page=2&pp=15  there's a way to get it working if you're INSTALLING Ubuntu....but I wanna just run the LiveCD....
[05:21] <ddsdgg> hello
[05:21] <Ballsy> Any idea how I can pass appropriate kernel args to fire up the live CD ?
[05:21] <dicesquirrel> farous_: yes, I followed every instruction on the wiki, line for line
[05:21] <wastrel> Ballsy:  you can type them at the grub command line
[05:21] <dicesquirrel> farous_: it's not like it's never worked before, either. It was working 2 weeks ago. Kernel update, fglrx update, now it doesn't work.
[05:21] <farous__> dicesquirrel: obivios i do nt know which wiki you are talking about so lets take it one step at a time
[05:22] <Ballsy> wastrel, the question is, WHAT do I type at hte command line
[05:22] <phunkalicious> is it odd that when i was running xgl and compiz my desktop was speedier? :|
[05:22] <dicesquirrel> farous_: wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:22] <dicesquirrel> farous_: the official ubuntu wiki
[05:22] <wastrel> Ballsy:  boot <your boot options here>
[05:22] <Ballsy> wastrel, the forum I found talks about changing file names and such...
[05:22] <farous__> dicesquirrel: kernel update you need the linux-restricted-modules package that correspond to your new kernel
[05:22] <Ballsy> wastrel, right, but I dunno what boot option I'm supposed to use.  The forum talks about changing the names of some files, etc. in order to get it to work.
[05:23] <River> nalioth: being a noobie i wish there was a better way or a less steep learning curve .. but i will have to jump in and see what happens .. thanks for your help
[05:23] <farous__> dicesquirrel: the official is help.ubuntu
[05:23] <dicesquirrel> farous_: excuse me, I'm mistaken, the URL was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[05:23] <farous__> dicesquirrel: anyone can write on the wiki
[05:23] <dicesquirrel> farous_: and yes, that package ALSO is up to date. The restricted modules
[05:24] <farous__> dispatcher: \\\
[05:24] <farous__> sorry

[05:24] <farous__> dicesquirrel: hmm how about the xorg.conf file did it say fglrx in the driver section
[05:24] <bigfoot1> nevyn: how do we punch in numbers when the call starts?
[05:24] <dicesquirrel> farous_: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-686 is already the newest version.
[05:25] <farous__> dicesquirrel: i have it running here no problems by the way
[05:25] <dicesquirrel> farous_: shall I put it in a pastebin so you can see?
[05:25] <zoidberg> hey guys
[05:25] <zoidberg> i have a couple of questions
[05:26] <Ballsy> wastrel, essentially, I need to send an arg to the kernel, and I think the arg's value has to be 'vesa', but I dunno what the actual arg name is (doh!)
[05:26] <farous__> dicesquirrel: i assume you rebooted after you did hte upgrade try cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Drive
[05:26] <zoidberg> anyone ?
[05:26] <zoidberg> i have an old G3 powerbook that has only 64 mb ram
[05:26] <dicesquirrel> farous_: yes, I rebooted. I've rebooted half a dozen times in the past hour and a half.
[05:26] <zoidberg> i just put xubuntu on it
[05:26] <zoidberg> so it can run smoother than GNOME
[05:27] <zoidberg> anyways is FIREFOX not the smoothest lighest web browser to be running on this machine
[05:27] <DarkMageZ> zoidberg, how did gnome run with 64mb of ram :s
[05:27] <zoidberg> ?
[05:27] <`zazeem> i need help, im on wondows xp right now and i downloaded what was said to be the install cd of new ubuntu, and it ended up beign the live cd.  can someone give me a link that works please.  I want to install it for desktop use i386. thanks
[05:27] <zoidberg> kinda chunkily
[05:27] <farous__> dicesquirrel: patience my friend. if it worked with the old kernel why did you upgrade :)
[05:27] <zoidberg> but is there a better lighter web browser
[05:27] <dicesquirrel> farous_: two instances of Driver "fglrx" in that command
[05:27] <`zazeem> anyone?
[05:27] <dicesquirrel> farous_: good question. I'm regretting it now. I assumed falsely that I would be getting some benefit out of it
[05:27] <catphive> hey, is anyone familiar with sound problems?
[05:27] <catphive> I'm trying to get my sound turned on
[05:28] <zoidberg> ?
[05:28] <DarkMageZ> 'zazeem, the current live cd also has the installer, double click the install icon on the desktop
[05:28] <`zazeem> o
[05:28] <`zazeem> ok
[05:28] <`zazeem> thanks
[05:28] <wastrel> zoidberg:  epiphany or galeon maybe
[05:28] <verbose> is there a way to start and configure vino from console only?
[05:28] <farous__> dicesquirrel: did you try running under the old kernel again
[05:28] <zoidberg> cool
[05:28] <farous__> you can just reinstall it again and it is harmless
[05:28] <wastrel> Ballsy:  not sure... can you get a console, or no vga at all?
[05:28] <dicesquirrel> farous_: I tried that as well. The original kernel I had installed. I believe because I installed a new version of fglrx since then.
[05:29] <dicesquirrel> farous_:http://pastebin.ca/94277
[05:29] <CaptainMorgan> sorry guys.. but #fedora is dead... which one do I download if I have an x86 intel machine PD? http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/Download
[05:29] <verbose> i can get to console
[05:29] <farous__> dicesquirrel: give me a min then
[05:29] <DarkMageZ> CaptainMorgan, please don't ask fedora questions in here. you are welcome to convert to ubuntu tho
[05:29] <purserj> got a question regarding the breezy livecd, how do you modify the splash screen? I want to have a splash that hides the initialisation stuffs while presenting a percentage complete message, is this possible?
[05:30] <Ballsy> wastrel, unfortunatley, it's THIS machine I'm trying to do it one, so I can't check without rebooting....so I wanted to get the answer (or close to it) before trying (running XP currently)
[05:30] <bigfoot1> hi guys, what is wrong? regardless of what softphone i use, what i said in the mic is not being heard. The only VOIP software that works is skype
[05:30] <bigfoot1> please help
[05:30] <CaptainMorgan> aye DarkMageZ, but there's no #linux and fedora is dead as I said..
[05:30] <bigfoot1> restarting doesn't seem to help
[05:30] <Ballsy> wastrel, searching google now...I KNOW I saw it somewhere.  ;)
[05:30] <ttyfscker> anybody here using "edgy"  i have a question asked in #ubuntu+1 but nobody ever answered it.. if someone here is using edgy please join ubuntu+1 so i can ask you a bug related question.. i need to make sure these are bugs with edgy not something else.
[05:30] <catphive> anyone know how to get sound turned on?
[05:30] <wastrel> bigfoot1:  #linuxhelp maybe
[05:31] <CarlFK> CaptainMorgan: dead is good reason to dump
[05:31] <CarlFK> CaptainMorgan: none the less, please stay on topic
[05:31] <CaptainMorgan> do ubuntu have server support?
[05:31] <ttyfscker> catphive:: thats not a question that we can answer easily.. be more specific
[05:31] <phunkalicious> there is a ##linux though...
[05:32] <CarlFK> yes - /join #ubuntu-server ;)
[05:32] <catphive> my driver is loaded, but sound is not on.
[05:32] <CaptainMorgan> phunkalicious, off by one..
[05:32] <phunkalicious> yeah man there is an ubuntu server
[05:32] <phunkalicious> that's what i user for my xen hosts :D
[05:32] <farous__> dicesquirrel: why you do not have the BusID in the device section
[05:32] <catphive> I tried turning on the sound in alsa mixer
[05:32] <Xenguy> CaptainMorgan: you can install non-GUI server only, yes
[05:32] <CaptainMorgan> Xenguy meh..
[05:32] <ic56> CaptainMorgan: try ##linux.
[05:32] <Xenguy> CaptainMorgan: you asked <shrug>
[05:32] <bigfoot1> wastrel: thankns, but no one is helping there
[05:33] <CaptainMorgan> ic56, way to keep up :)
[05:33] <dicesquirrel> farous_: frankly, I don't know.
[05:33] <catphive> what kind of settings are there related to sound?
[05:33] <farous__> dicesquirrel: do you have an old backup of your xorg.conf file
[05:33] <ttyfscker> catphive:: what app are you trying to get to play sound?
[05:33] <farous__> the one that was running with fglrx
[05:34] <catphive> all of them
[05:34] <ttyfscker> catphive:: if your in kde then you need the artsd running
[05:34] <catphive> no sound is coming out at all
[05:34] <ic56> CaptainMorgan: what do you mean "way to keep up"?
[05:34] <ttyfscker> gnome or kde?
[05:34] <dicesquirrel> farous_: heh, I have a dozen or more.
[05:34] <catphive> I'm in gnome
[05:34] <catphive> plain ubuntu
[05:34] <catphive> fresh install
[05:34] <catphive> no sound
[05:34] <dicesquirrel> farous_: this xorg.conf did work, though, once upon a time
[05:34] <farous__> dicesquirrel: use one of the old ones and backup this one seems to me it has some errors in it
[05:34] <ttyfscker> on the volume mixer in the taskbar if you go to preferences.. does it show anything turned off?  and is PCM turned up ?
[05:35] <farous__> dicesquirrel: make sure you are in the video group too
[05:35] <ironfroggy> what packages do i need to play things like mp3's, wmv videos, etc?
[05:35] <dicesquirrel> farous_: the video group?
[05:35] <ironfroggy> no, i dont care that they are not 'free' or that they are not supported by the ubuntu team.
[05:36] <ttyfscker> ironfroggy:: they are installable..  non-free doesnt mean moneywise.. means the source isnt open
[05:36] <farous__> dicesquirrel: for example your monitor is setup to use one device and the screen is using another which is wired to me
[05:36] <Woosta> !mplayer
[05:36] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer/Compile to compile it from source or enable multiverse repo and type sudo apt-get install mplayer for more info please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer
[05:36] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[05:36] <ironfroggy> ttyfscker: i know that...
[05:36] <gdb> ironfroggy: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[05:37] <zoidberg> does anyone know of a very light browser that works well with laptops with 64 mb ram
[05:37] <Who_> I have another grub question for anyone listening :)
[05:37] <Woosta> lynx
[05:37] <farous__> dicesquirrel: video group to be able to use 3d accel i think you are already added to it
[05:37] <ttyfscker> ironfroggy:: i thought my mp3's worked out of the box.   i could be wrong.
[05:37] <ion_bidon> hello, anyone knows how I can allow root to open X applications ?
[05:37] <ironfroggy> ttyfscker: i was told they dont.
[05:37] <gdb> ttyfscker: They do not as the mp3 format is patented and strictly enforced.
[05:37] <Woosta> ttyfscker: you need *something* to play them .. like mpg123 (or mpg321) or xine or xmms or ...
[05:38] <Who_> A recent windows install not only overwrote the bootloader (which I have fixed) but it _also_ caused the partitions to bet relabelled. I am very confused as to how this happened (I didn't do the install) but basically, I have had to manually edit the lines in order to boot
[05:38] <ttyfscker> when you install xmms it will play your mp3s
[05:38] <ttyfscker> unlike some distros
[05:38] <dicesquirrel> farous_: well, you said there are errors in this xorg.conf, but what are they specifically? Perhaps this otherwise functioning xorg.conf can be fixed, rather than going through a bunch of backups which may or may not work (probably may not)
[05:38] <ttyfscker> some distros have the nonmp3 version of xmms
[05:38] <Who_> all I need to do is change root to hd0,1 instead of hd0,2 and the root in the next line to /dev/hda2 instead of /dev/hda3
[05:38] <ic56> zoidberg: text-only browsers, like lynx and links, work great in such an environment
[05:38] <wastrel> w3c
[05:38] <karl> how do I change the sound device my computer is using? I have an onboard soundcard and a pci soundcard, and would like to use the pci one.
[05:39] <wastrel> karl:  turn off the onboard in bios maybe
[05:39] <karl> wastrel, good idea
[05:39] <farous__> dicesquirrel: i said there are some wired stuff in it look at your screen section
[05:39] <farous__> now you have two screens with the same identifier
[05:39] <ttyfscker> karl:: you can either do that.. or run alsaconf and pick the appropriate one..  but i dont think alsaconf is included in the system anymore.. i think it was deprecated
[05:39] <catphive> does anyone know how to configure sound?
[05:39] <Who_> I can change it all by hand  _but_ if I run update-grub everything goes back to the old version. That makes mre worry that an update could screw up the booting process (I am about to wave goodbye to the PC so that is a problem!)
[05:39] <catphive> I"m on fresh ubuntu
[05:40] <ttyfscker> catphive:: what kind of sound card do you have. do you know?
[05:40] <ardchoille> zoidberg: I use elinks and I love it. There are times I log in without x and use elinks in a screen session to surf the web.
[05:40] <dicesquirrel> farous_: yes, I know, I was following the directions on the help.ubuntu.com page for the ATI driver.
[05:41] <Who_> any GDM gurus?
[05:41] <dicesquirrel> farous_: should I change it to something?
[05:41] <dxdemetriou> how can I use a tar.gz, diff.gz and dsc to make a .deb?
[05:41] <Who_> dxdemetriou: Why do you want to do that - what are you trying to install?
[05:42] <ttyfscker> dxdemetriou:: thats not going to work the way your expecting..
[05:42] <ttyfscker> your trying to make a source tar ball into a deb package.. you need to just find a deb package to install, or compile the source.
[05:42] <dxdemetriou> The new mplayer from the pool. I tried before with the kernel, and there was an option to separate the packages
[05:43] <farous__> dicesquirrel: is this config file recomended on help.ubuntu.com can you send me the page for i never seen two screens been defined having the same identifier before. my recommendation is to use an old reliable xorg.conf file
[05:43] <gdb> ttyfscker: He's trying to compile a source package.
[05:43] <farous__> dicesquirrel: it will take lot of time to debug this xorg.conf file
[05:43] <ttyfscker> gdb:: he said he wants to make it a deb package..
[05:44] <dicesquirrel> farous_: okay, clearly I thought this -was- the old reliable xorg.conf file. How do I create a new "old reliable xorg.conf" file
[05:44] <illovae> hello :)
[05:44] <dicesquirrel> farous_: and the page is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[05:44] <zoidberg> how do you remove applications from the terminal?
[05:44] <Who_> illovae: hi
[05:44] <ttyfscker> applications from the terminal?
[05:44] <ttyfscker> what?
[05:44] <ttyfscker> lol
[05:44] <zoidberg> how do u remove a program that u installed from the terminal
[05:44] <zoidberg> i forget the command
[05:44] <Who_> zoidberg: the terminal provides access to all the applications on your computer
[05:45] <zoidberg> you know removing packages from the terminal
[05:45] <ttyfscker> zoidberg:: was it a deb package? or what?
[05:45] <zoidberg> yeah
[05:45] <zoidberg> basically
[05:45] <ttyfscker> zoidberg::  do you mean apt-get remove debname?
[05:45] <Who_> zoidberg: did you use a deb or compile it
[05:45] <farous__> dicesquirrel: i know what went wrong you do not need to execute all the commands each time you update your fglrx driver
[05:45] <zoidberg> i installed an application useing sudo apt-get install
[05:45] <illovae> :) excuse me but i have a pb with conky... i downloaded the .deb from debian website and a sudo dpkg-deb --control returns me 'error of segmentation'
[05:45] <zoidberg> now i wanna remove it
[05:45] <ic56> zoidberg: apt-get delete <package name>
[05:45] <illovae> can you help me ?
[05:45] <zoidberg> thanx
[05:45] <Who_> zoidberg: sudo apt-get remove <packagename>
[05:45] <ic56> zoidberg: no, wait. it's "remove" -- not "delete"
[05:45] <farous__> dicesquirrel: you run sudo aticonfig --initial only the first time you install the fglrx driver
[05:46] <ttyfscker> could have saved you all some typing anyway
[05:46] <illovae> i went on #conky and thet said to me that's a pb from my system :/
[05:46] <ttyfscker> i asked if he meant apt-get remove debname
[05:46] <elhaxxorz> anyone know how to make a logitech cordless rumblepad 2 work in ubuntu?
[05:46] <Mikkas> hey there everyone ... i have windows XP installed, i was wondering .. in ubuntu --- i have  set up VMware (installed it) -- can i move the XP partition directly over to a VMware partition?
[05:47] <dicesquirrel> farous_: so how to I reconcile this now?
[05:47] <dxdemetriou> ttyfscker, I try to learn from source code. I tried the "DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="--enable-gui" fakeroot debian/rules binary", but in apt there are different packages, and that is the reason I asked if I can use the 3 files from pool
[05:47] <skavenge> anyway to ch ange the main menus font in gnome?
[05:47] <ardchoille> How do I enable console framebuffer mode?
[05:47] <farous__> dicesquirrel: you never backed up your xorg.conf file?
[05:47] <whyameye> catphive: what sort of problem are you having?
[05:47] <Woosta> Mikkas: no .. you have to install windows onto the VMWare as the hardware setup is different
[05:47] <catphive> my lspci outputis here
[05:47] <catphive> no sound
[05:47] <Mikkas> hmm.. woosta, so ill lose all my settings?
[05:47] <catphive> I have drivers I believe
[05:47] <Mikkas> ok..
[05:48] <ttyfscker> dxdemetriou:: sounds like your use to slack or something
[05:48] <Who_> anyone around now with lots of lovely grub know-how?
[05:48] <Woosta> You can mount it as an extra drive
[05:48] <Mikkas> how?
[05:48] <dxdemetriou> ttyfscker, the Dapper :)
[05:48] <Mikkas> is it easy?
[05:48] <whyameye> catphive: I'm tuning in late. Did you already check the volume controls etc.?
[05:48] <catphive> fresh install without sound
[05:48] <Woosta> Or you might be able to 'repair' it .. though windows DRM might not let you
[05:48] <catphive> well, I've checked the ones I know exist
[05:48] <ttyfscker> catphive:: make sure that your volume levels are right in the mixer applet
[05:48] <Woosta> Mikkas: add a new drive .. go through the expert setting to add an existing partition
[05:48] <dicesquirrel> farous_: I've got several backups. So, I should take the original backup and...?
[05:48] <catphive> alsamixer?
[05:48] <catphive> which mixer?
[05:49] <farous__> dicesquirrel: post the original backup for me to look at it
[05:49] <ttyfscker> catphive::   do sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
[05:49] <illovae> k nevermind, thanks :)

[05:50] <element> is there a client like WinSCP for linux?
[05:50] <dicesquirrel> farous_: http://pastebin.ca/94293
[05:50] <zoidberg> elinks is a web browser?
[05:50] <illovae> yes zoidberg
[05:50] <ivis> regeya could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\mirc616.exe": Module not found
[05:50] <ivis> =\
[05:50] <Asterisk_Newbie> bye all, from Portugal
[05:50] <wastrel> dicesquirrel:  just FYI, if there's an xorg.conf in your home directory, it takes precedence over the system xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[05:51] <dicesquirrel> wastrel: there isn't
[05:51] <phunkalicious> you could try secpanel element, i never used it tho
[05:51] <regeya> ivis oh my well that's just terrible.
[05:51] <jhan100> any peoples wants talk in the skype with me .. I really need pratice my english . . :D
[05:51] <phunkalicious> it says its a gui for ssh and scp
[05:51] <catphive> installing gnome alsa mixer then unmuting my pcm seemed to fix it
[05:51] <catphive> I have no idea why though
[05:51] <catphive> what's pcm?
[05:51] <ivis> regeya why?
[05:51] <element> phunkalicious, ok, thanks
[05:51] <ttyfscker> the pcm being muted was the whole problem
[05:52] <catphive> didn't even see pcm anywhere else, or maybe I missed it
[05:52] <ttyfscker> its the part of your sound card that processes the sounds that software uses on your pc
[05:52] <farous__> dicesquirrel: ok that is the first one good so for this one you can follow the wiki page to the end. for any new release for the ati driver stop the instructions at sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[05:52] <ttyfscker> way up in the chat u will see that i told you to check that pcm wasnt turned off ;)
[05:52] <catphive> what's pcm?
[05:52] <regeya> ivis: not to put too fine a point on it, but once you've decided to run linux, I suggest you make an effort to use as much linux software as possible.  using the windows equivalents sounds wonderful in theory but really wine tends to be a bit fussy.
[05:52] <farous__> dicesquirrel: so for this one start from sudo aticonfig --initial to the end of the instructions
[05:52] <Dark_Knight_209> pm volume
[05:53] <dicesquirrel> farous_: alright, I'll give it a spin. Fingers crossed!
[05:53] <Dark_Knight_209> just not the master ^_^
[05:53] <ivis>  ohh
[05:53] <Dark_Knight_209> pcm*
[05:53] <regeya> ivis: http://insanity.swifthost.co.uk/host/?q=node/13
[05:53] <wheels3572> !automount > wheels3572
[05:53] <ubotu> I know nothing about automount  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:53] <farous__> dicesquirrel: before you start do not forget to cp te file as the new etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels3572: Do you need an mount script?
[05:53] <zoidberg_> hmm
[05:54] <zoidberg_> wow elinks only works on the terminal
[05:54] <linuxcrazy> anyone know how to install libdvdcss on ubuntu (dapper)
[05:54] <zoidberg_> any light web browser that doesnt work in the terminal out there?
[05:54] <linuxcrazy> ?
[05:54] <ivis> regeya a how to run counter strike under linux?
[05:54] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels3572: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[05:54] <linuxcrazy> anyone?....
[05:54] <Woosta> zoidberg .. a really old version of the current ones would probably run on X on 64MB
[05:54] <regeya> ivis: I've no idea.
[05:55] <farous__> zoidberg_: there was something called dillto or dilto can not remember is used by DSL
[05:55] <Woosta> Personally, I'd go get more RAM .. it's damned cheap
[05:55] <zoidberg_> cool
[05:55] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks :)
[05:55] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[05:55] <ivis> ohh anyway thanks for help
[05:55] <ivis> :)
[05:55] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels3572: do you need to remove those mounts off the desktop
[05:56] <zoidberg_> cant find dillto or dilto on apt-get install
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> I find them handy
[05:56] <Dark_Knight_209> counterstrike onlinux cedega &_&
[05:56] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: I want to add partition to the desktop :) on autoboot
[05:56] <catphive> well thanks for your help. the sound problemis solved
[05:56] <ic56> zoidberg_: the trouble with "light" web browsers is they, by definition, cannot provide the full functionality.  People who want GUI want java and javascript and flash and xml and ...  A light GUI browser just isn't satisfactory so the GUI browsers keep having features added to them and getting bigger
[05:56] <farous__> zoidberg_: google what damen small linux use you will get the right name i do not remember it now
[05:56] <Dark_Knight_209> zoidberg, you mean dillo?
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> that script will do it if it is ntfs, fat 32
[05:56] <Mikkas> can someone help me reconfigure what drives are automatically mounted when i start ubuntu -- pretty please :D
[05:57] <whyameye> !realplayer
[05:57] <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
[05:57] <zoidberg_> cool
[05:57] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: It's fat32
[05:57] <zoidberg_> thats fine
[05:57] <zoidberg_> i gues i will just live with it
[05:57] <Jack_Sparrow> run the script and restart X
[05:57] <zoidberg_> its not that bad
[05:57] <zoidberg_> thanx for the help anywyas
[05:57] <zoidberg_> now
[05:57] <zoidberg_> here i have a more important problem
[05:57] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels3572: I know it says you dont, but you do
[05:57] <Dark_Knight_209> btw, the version of dillo on damn small linux is a patched version you may have to build from source is you want the tabs :-p
[05:57] <Mikkas> can someone help me reconfigure what drives are automatically mounted when i start ubuntu -- pretty please :D
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: what type of drives partitions
[05:58] <zoidberg_> ogle the DVD player crashes when i try to play a DVD...it goes to the FBI wanring screens and then just crashes
[05:58] <zoidberg_> some guy the other day said that i dont have sveas or sceas distributions or something

[05:58] <Mikkas> ntfs
[05:58] <zoidberg_> can anyone help me?
[05:58] <gleaken> I cannot start a vnc server and get it to accept connections, I tried the howto on ubuntuforums I am using 3.3.7, not version 4 I am still getting 104 errors
[05:58] <Mikkas> i installed ubuntu, but forgot to plug in one sata disk
[05:58] <farous__> !seveas
[05:58] <n3rdism> !hello
[05:58] <ubotu> Seveas has a semi-popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about hello - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas:  http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[05:58] <Mikkas> so the mp3s and docs etc dont auto mount
[05:59] <Mikkas> yeh i just read that
[05:59] <farous__> zoidberg_: look at ubotu post
[05:59] <Mikkas> what do i do with that?
[05:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: please explain once more what you want to do?
[06:00] <Mikkas> i have a sata hdd, with ntfs partitions on it. i want them to be automatically mounted when i boot ubuntu
[06:00] <linuxcrazy> thx
[06:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: go to terminal, and do what that script says
[06:00] <Mikkas> ^_^
[06:00] <n3rdism> !fstab
[06:00] <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
[06:00] <Jack_Sparrow> IT configures your fstab for you
[06:01] <kyle_> sorry every......im new........but are there any programs that run like MIRC does on windows
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: You do not intend to write to the NTFS drives? Correct?
[06:01] <Mikkas> xchat kyle
[06:01] <Mikkas> i like it
[06:01] <Mikkas> nope
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> KVirc, konversation
[06:01] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: /dev/hda1 hda1 being the partition I will want to mount of course I am changing hda1 obviously
[06:01] <roaet> is there a way for me to change my ubuntu NTFS modules to the new one that allows writing?
[06:01] <Mikkas> im thinking of booting back to XP , to run partition magic to make all my ntfs to FAT32
[06:01] <kyle_> no there arent?
[06:02] <roaet> mikkas if you do that you may mess up your partitions if they are greater than 32GB
[06:02] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels, did you run that script
[06:02] <Mikkas> hmm, how come..
[06:02] <Mikkas> i thought fat 32 had a massive max limit
[06:02] <Darkprince> question-- is it worthwhile to try and run 3D games in linux?
[06:02] <roaet> It does.
[06:02] <Xenguy> kyle_: xchat probably
[06:02] <Mikkas> yep xchat
[06:02] <Mikkas> its cool
[06:02] <roaet> If you have NTFS partitions greater than 32 GB, then you can't even partition them to Fat32
[06:03] <n3rdism> i like gaim ^^
[06:03] <wheels3572> I actually have a different one which I used last time :) just found it
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: 4 gig file size
[06:03] <Mikkas> max yeh
[06:03] <Mikkas> but i dont have files that big
[06:03] <Mikkas> or vobs etc
[06:03] <Mikkas> well either way
[06:03] <zoidberg_> sorry guys but i cant understand how to download these seveas packages for DVD libraries
[06:03] <zoidberg_> ?
[06:03] <Mikkas>  i just want to mount my documents to get in ubuntu
[06:03] <Mikkas> ill check that thing out now
[06:04] <farous__> zoidberg_: would be easier if you say what you want to do
[06:04] <zoidberg_> hold on
[06:04] <zoidberg_> well
[06:04] <zoidberg_> where can i post the erro messages
[06:04] <zoidberg_> pastebin? whats the address
[06:04] <farous__> !pastebin > zoidberg_
[06:04] <Mikkas> do i um... copy paste that mount page into the term??
[06:04] <zoidberg_> i'll paste the error i get when ogle crashes when i try to play a dvd
[06:04] <zoidberg_> !pastebin
[06:04] <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)

[06:05] <agamotto> I have a question regarding installing Dapper on AMD-64 - I keep getting errors with the cd image and the dvd image, claiming that the following has failed the MD5 checksum
[06:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: No
[06:05] <pjfc> has anypne installed wine on 64bit dapper 6.06
[06:05] <Mikkas> hmm... so theres no easy fix then.
[06:05] <agamotto>  './dists/dapper/main/binary-amd-64/packages/'
[06:06] <agamotto> This has happened with three downloads from the Ubuntu servers and a DVD rom I purchased fro OSDisc.com... any clues?
[06:06] <malv> anyone here have any recommendations for an irda adaptor that works well under linux?
[06:06] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: What does this mean exactly Append the following line at the end of file  /dev/hda1    /media/windows vfat  iocharset=utf8,umask=000  0    0
[06:06] <pjfc> DBO: do you know how to install wine on 64bit dapper 6.06
[06:06] <malv> I want to control MythTv with my remote
[06:06] <ic56> Mikkas: did you say that drive of yours was SATA?
[06:06] <DBO> pjfc, I dont know much of anything about 64bit actually
[06:07] <DBO> malv, look into LIRC
[06:07] <DBO> malv, you can configure most every remote that way
[06:07] <Mikkas> its sata yes
[06:07] <pjfc> DBO: thanks anyway.  You were a big help about a month ago on another problem. thought I would try.
[06:07] <malv> I am familiar with LIRC. I need an Irda adaptor though
[06:07] <CyDrive> how do i get the latest version of java
[06:08] <malv> I am wondering if anyone can vouch for any particular Irda adaptor
[06:08] <ardchoille> I just installed links2, logged into tty1, ran links2 -g  and it shows all graphics in tty1. This is nice. However, it won't run as user, I had to run it with sudo. Anyone know why it won't run as user?
[06:08] <barneyR> anyone know how to setup a USB modem in Ubuntu 6?
[06:08] <ardchoille> It says: Error. Could not open /dev/tty0  Permission denied.
[06:08] <ic56> Mikkas: could you please satisfy my curiosity?  Run "sudo fdisk -l".  This lists all the known partitions.  The question is: does it detect teh SATA partitions or just the IDE ones?
[06:08] <pjfc> anybody know about wine on 64bit?
[06:08] <zoidberg_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18493
[06:08] <zoidberg_> thats it guys plz help me
[06:08] <CyDrive> pjfc: wine dosent work on 64bit

[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> wheels3572: that means add it to the last line in that file
[06:11] <ardchoille> !info flash
[06:11] <ubotu> Package flash does not exist in dapper
[06:11] <wheels3572> Jack_Sparrow: Ok ty :)
[06:11] <pjfc> CyDrive: on the wine sight it says there is a way, but having know luck.  http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit?highlight=%28wineon64bit%29

[06:12] <babo> anyone here have lots of curl experience ?
[06:12] <ic56> Mikkas: I don't think the diskmounter script will work for you.  It relies on fdisk -l.  The new version being worked on by Seveal should but he hasn't published that one yet.
[06:12] <FunnyLookinHat> How do I do a "complete removal" (like in synaptic) via the console?
[06:12] <pjfc> jbrimble: are you using 64bit?

[06:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: I run sata drives here and diskmounter worked fine
[06:12] <ic56> Mikkas: he'll get it when he wakes up
[06:13] <Mikkas> meh its all good.
[06:13] <jbrimble> pjfc: no
[06:13] <CyDrive> pjfc: http://www.codeweavers.com/products/download_trial/
[06:13] <CyDrive> its only a trial though trust me its way better than wine
[06:13] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, ok so why after I run sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server I can "locate mysql" and get a ton of results?  :)
[06:13] <Darkprince> is it possible to get games such as World of Warcraft to run decently in linux?
[06:13] <ic56> Jack_Sparrow: really?  What does "sudo fdisk -l" report on your box?  Do the partitions on the SATA drives show up?
[06:13] <Mikkas> cant i just use something like gparted and allocate a drive mount>?
[06:14] <agamotto> Darkprince:  Yes, using Cedega
[06:14] <storm> How do I open a keygen?
[06:14] <Mikkas> im looking for an idiot fix
[06:14] <DBO> FunnyLookinHat, because the locate database hasnt been updated
[06:14] <slavik> When I try to install Ubuntu on my main system, when the partitioner tries to load, it freezes at 50%. The drive which I want to install ubuntu onto is a sATA drive connectedto a Sil3114 controller. Other drives (main/windows) are connected to aPromise Ultra133X2 card (dual channel ATA133 controller).
[06:14] <tophor> Can someone help me with a question?
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, yea I did, sudo updatedb
[06:14] <ic56> !ask
[06:14] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:14] <Darkprince> agamotto, i just got cedega... havn't trouble installing atm though
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> DBO, strange, huh?
[06:15] <slavik> anyone wants to hear something funny?
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> ic it shows all up to sda6
[06:15] <CyDrive> slavik: i had this problem re-download the iso and re-burn it on a new cd and try that
[06:15] <tophor> I'm sitting on a 5.10 Live , and I need to install it....but I don't see an install button.....and I've updated.....
[06:15] <DBO> FunnyLookinHat, perhaps you have other packages and dependancies still installed with mysql related items
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> ic56:  it shows all up to sda6
[06:15] <slavik> flash player 7 under wine is better than flash player 6 in native linux
[06:15] <slavik> CyDrive: could it be the slightly outdated kernel?
[06:15] <ic56> Jack_Sparrow: Interesting.  Thanks!
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: I gave you the idiot fix
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> ic56: np works great
[06:15] <storm> How do I execute a linux keygen?
[06:15] <Mikkas> heh ok

[06:16] <storm> Generic: its for nix
[06:16] <tophor> anyone? How can I hard install the live 5.10 ubuntu i'm working on right now.....possible?
[06:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: go to that link with browser, save page to your hard drive
[06:16] <Generic> storm, if it's a script of some sort
[06:16] <primal> it's working now in recovery mode, but will not display when i boot normally
[06:16] <CyDrive> slavik: no one of the files was corrupted on the disk open the live disk and use the check funtion where you can choose to boot into the live cd or install in that menu theres an option to check cd see if its the cd cause it most liely is
[06:16] <Generic> you can try a chmod +x on it
[06:16] <Generic> and then ./
[06:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Mikkas: read the simple instructions
[06:16] <agamotto> hyperstream:  I have no idea.  Cedega has been nice enough to just work for me
[06:16] <FunnyLookinHat> tophor, you can only install from the liveCD with the 6.06 liveCD (Dapper Drake)
[06:16] <storm> Generic: kk, let me try
[06:16] <primal> will anyone else help me with this?
[06:17] <slavik> k
[06:17] <Generic> storm, what's the extension on it?
[06:17] <storm> Generic: doesnt have one
[06:17] <cobelloy> hi, anyone know why the sound would stop working on my laptop when the network is active?
[06:17] <tophor> Oh no......are you positive.....No terminal commands?
[06:18] <tophor> Can I install espresso manually?
[06:18] <tophor> and get this live hard copied
[06:18] <Darkprince> why is it that when some programs are using my speakers, all other sound is disabled?
[06:18] <RedGhost> what is a good linux debugger (prefer an IDE), that supports Intel syntax output (at&t is fugly)???
[06:18] <pjfc> CyDrive: if you install a web browser named Flock (based on Firefox) you can install the linux flash ver. 7
[06:18] <cobelloy> I have a usb network adapter and onboard sound that doesnt work when the network is active
[06:18] <nn> what's the release name of the newest release such that i can update my sources.lst? :)
[06:19] <storm> Generic: no luck there
[06:19] <wheels3572> Got a REALLY Stupid question lol.  My trashbin has moved to the left of the work space windows how do I move it back to the far right
[06:19] <storm> wheels3572: drag it?
[06:19] <Generic> storm, then i'm not sure :/
[06:19] <cobelloy> also when sound is working it is not very good quality
[06:19] <bimberi> nn: if you have hoary you should upgrade to breezy first, then dapper
[06:19] <storm> Generic: ty anyway
[06:19] <Generic> no problem
[06:19] <wheels3572> storm: it opens it

[06:30] <humanpersonman> primaly, have you tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:30] <mamilo_chagas> Hi everyone... I'm new to linux and I'm trying to install a second ethernet card on my pc but I can't install the drivers... any hints??
[06:30] <primal> yes several times
[06:31] <primal> and i leave it on defaults
[06:31] <Ballsy> Anyone have good luck with SIS 760 vid chipsets when running Dapper LiveCD?  It freezes a while, then dumps me to a blank screen after 'configuring some drivers...ok' with blinking cursor.
[06:31] <humanpersonman> mamilo, have you tried to just put it in and then go. When I installed a new one it just worked
[06:31] <primal> even tried vesa. i still get no display on normal boot
[06:31] <mamilo_chagas> not working..
[06:31] <farous__> primal: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:31] <duffyd> hello all, I may be stupid (and I'm not discounting this option) but is there a location on the web where I can search the ubuntu repositories (i.e. like for Debian)?
[06:32] <mamilo_chagas> the pc doesn't "see" the card...
[06:32] <primal> i only get a display when i boot gdm from recovery mode
[06:32] <FunnyLookinHat> Ok, if I paste a link to my syslog, anyone here think they might know how to fix my mysql-server?
[06:32] <humanpersonman> duffyd, in the firefox that comes with ubuntu, there is a search engine alread built in
[06:32] <Xorlev> FunnyLookinHat: What's the error?
[06:32] <primal> farous__: been down that road many times
[06:32] <duffyd> humanpersonman, thanks a lot (now I'm blushing) ;-)
[06:32] <humanpersonman> duffyd, else go here http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[06:33] <primal> oh, i wish it was so simple!
[06:33] <farous__> primal: might be something in your home dir
[06:33] <farous__> if gdm starts
[06:33] <duffyd> humanpersonman, thanx a mill. Can't understand why google wouldn't show those up
[06:33] <FunnyLookinHat> Xorlev, well, in console i get an elongated version of "Can't connect to lcoal Mysql server through socket. etc. etc. et"
[06:33] <duffyd> or why there's no info on the support pages/wikis (that I could find)
[06:33] <mamilo_chagas> human, I've tried to download the drivers, but I can't seen to find the proprer ones for realtek rtl8139...
[06:33] <storm> Ashex: you there?
[06:33] <primal> such as? my display was working fine until i switched to an ati driver for my ati vid card
[06:33] <FunnyLookinHat> Xorlev, tells me to checkout syslog, here it is:  http://ridgehkr.com/syslog
[06:33] <SnookKill> Hello
[06:34] <duffyd> thanks all. My first experience on this channel has been great
[06:34] <duffyd> l8r
[06:34] <storm> Can someone tell me how to open this file? http://www.crackserver.com/pages_cracks/Parallels.Workstation.v2.1.1658.Incl.Keymaker.EMBRACE.zip.htm
[06:34] <ardchoille> Is this #ubuntu-unregged?
[06:34] <farous__> primal: do not set the kernel to use framebuffer when you try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:34] <humanpersonman> mamilo_chagas, i can't help you there, hardware is not exactly my forte
[06:34] <Xorlev> FunnyLookinHat: Looks like you're trying to run mysql as a normal user.
[06:34] <slowz3r> what is a good burning program that will convewrt mp3 to wav  too
[06:35] <mamilo_chagas> Anyone, any ideas??
[06:35] <primal> farous__: i tried that too. i told it no and then yes
[06:35] <primal> neither seem to work
[06:35] <farous__> slowz3r: i use sox
[06:35] <FunnyLookinHat> Xorlev, ....  really?  I'm doing sudo ./mysql start
[06:35] <ardchoille> slowz3r: grip will rip to wave and then comvert to mp3 if you install lame
[06:35] <primal> i installed the fglrx driver
[06:35] <FunnyLookinHat> Xorlev, and it's a default install with sudo apt-get install mysql-serve
[06:35] <Xorlev> FunnyLookinHat: Are the data files chowned to the user the actual daemon runs as?
[06:35] <SnookKill> Hello, newbie to Linux, tried Ubuntu Live CD but could not get wireless, I then trid Kanotix and I have 90%
[06:35] <primal> how can i change to another driver?
[06:35] <SnookKill> of all functions
[06:35] <primal> maybe the default ati driver?
[06:35] <Xorlev> I'm seeing this over and over:
[06:36] <Xorlev> Jul 20 23:46:51 server mysqld[8758] : 060720 23:46:51  InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation.
[06:36] <Xorlev> Jul 20 23:46:51 server mysqld[8758] : InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
[06:36] <Xorlev> Jul 20 23:46:51 server mysqld[8758] : InnoDB: the directory.
[06:36] <SnookKill> I now wonder what is the difference between Ubuntu and Kanotix and I looking for reason to switch
[06:36] <mamilo_chagas> supposed i've got the tar.gz file qith the driver, how to compile in ubuntu 6.06?
[06:36] <FunnyLookinHat> Xorlev, all I did was sudo apt-get install mysql-server      so I am sure they permissions should be set correct
[06:36] <Xorlev> That means it doesn't have the privileges to open the InnoDB data files, and possibly the MyISAM ones too if it can't get at the directory.
[06:37] <primal> farous__: what's the default ati driver?
[06:37] <slowz3r> farous__, where can i get sox..
[06:37] <farous__> primal: ati
[06:37] <Xorlev> This is precisely the reason I compile mine from source and control every step of the installation...check out the permissions. They might be wrong.
[06:37] <farous__> slowz3r: it is in the repos
[06:37] <godzig> sun-java5-plugin installed and reinstalled still no applets. firefox still gives me the missing plugin sign. any other ideas? tried deleting pluginreg.dat, no love.
[06:37] <primal> you wouldn't happen to know the command for that would you?
[06:37] <Xorlev> Also... Jul 21 00:11:30 server mysqld[9447] : 060721  0:11:30 [Warning]  One can only use the --user switch if running as root
[06:38] <slowz3r> farous__, mkay
[06:38] <Xorlev> That makes me think it isn't being run as root.
[06:38] <primal> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-ati ???
[06:38] <humanpersonman> !ati
[06:38] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:38] <farous__> it should be installed by default primal
[06:38] <humanpersonman> aha
[06:38] <farous__> now  back to my movie take care all
[06:39] <primal> but when i run the reconfigure, i choose ati and i still get no display. what up with that?
[06:39] <humanpersonman> godzig, type about:plugins in firefox to see if it is installed
[06:40] <primal> it obviously works sometimes b/c i'm in recovery mode and it's working now
[06:40] <godzig> human, firefox doesn't see it.
[06:41] <primal> humanpersonman: any idea why my display only works when i start gdm in recovery mode?
[06:41] <humanpersonman> godzig, do ls /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
[06:41] <humanpersonman> in that there should be a libjavaplugin.so
[06:42] <zoidberg_> hey guys i have ubuntu dapper on my desktop too
[06:42] <zoidberg_> for the longest time i've been trying to get a USB wireless adapter to work on it
[06:42] <godzig> human: true.
[06:42] <zoidberg_> i got NDISWRAPPER to install the driver
[06:42] <zoidberg_> but it says cant find hardware
[06:43] <zoidberg_> any suggestions?
[06:43] <zoidberg_> it is a 2Wire Usb Adapter
[06:43] <humanpersonman> godzig, so you have libjavaplugin.so, but it still isn't working?
[06:44] <primal> humanpersonman: any idea why my display only works when i start gdm in recovery mode?
[06:44] <godzig> looks like the about:plugins is only listing the plugins that are in my .mozilla/firefox/ folder
[06:44] <humanpersonman> primal, no, not good with hardware
[06:44] <primal> humanpersonman: thanks anyway
[06:44] <primal> anybody else have any idea why my display only works when i start gdm in recovery mode?
[06:45] <zoidberg_> can anyone help me get a 2Wire wireless USB adapter to work on dapper...i've installed the driver but it says that it cant find hardware
[06:45] <girl_inhere> ngel nak SMP bkn?
[06:45] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg_: sounds like installed the wrong file
[06:45] <zoidberg_> you think
[06:45] <zoidberg_> i tried installing the .ini and .sys file
[06:46] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg_: if you are using the right drivers
[06:46] <zoidberg_> but both times it says cant find hardware
[06:46] <zoidberg_> well i go to windows
[06:46] <humanpersonman> godzig, I don't think there is supposed to be plugins in that directory, but if there is and that is where it is reading it from for some reason, just copy over the plugins from that directory I just gave you to the other plugin directory
[06:46] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg_: is there possibley more than one ini or sys
[06:46] <zoidberg_> and i check the driver file it is using for the adapter
[06:46] <zoidberg_> and i copied that same file and brought it over to ndiswrapper
[06:46] <gr33npho3nix> oh ok
[06:46] <zoidberg_> and installed it
[06:46] <zoidberg_> but says cant find hardware
[06:47] <primal> i'm really resorting to begging here... please please please someone help me with my display problems
[06:47] <humanpersonman> primal, try the forums
[06:47] <zoidberg_> anyways
[06:47] <zoidberg_> doubt its gonna work
[06:48] <zoidberg_> anyone know if COUNTERSTRIKE works on linux?
[06:48] <Toma-> zoidberg: yep
[06:48] <zoidberg_> really...how...1,6...source...or both?
[06:48] <ToHellWithGA> i need to kill a process.  i want to kill gaim since i'm not at my PC and run naim.  how can i figure out which process is gaim and kill it?
[06:48] <zoidberg_> type top in terminal
[06:49] <dli> ToHellWithGA, pkill -9 gaim
[06:49] <zoidberg_> you will get a list of all the processes running at the moment
[06:49] <humanpersonman> tohellwithga, should be obvious in the system monitor
[06:49] <Toma-> zoidberg: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam
[06:49] <zoidberg_> and then look for gaim and its process id
[06:49] <purserj> ToHellWithGA, : killall gaim should do the trick
[06:49] <dli> ToHellWithGA, you may have to install pkill first
[06:49] <ToHellWithGA> humanpersonman: i'm ssh'd
[06:49] <humanpersonman> ah
[06:49] <zoidberg_> then you can type kill -KILL processid
[06:49] <ToHellWithGA> thanks yall.  i'll try pkill
[06:49] <zoidberg_> try top if that doesnt work
[06:49] <zoidberg_> top
[06:49] <ToHellWithGA> how can i search active processes to find the right id in the terminal?
[06:49] <zoidberg_> top
[06:49] <zoidberg_> type top
[06:49] <ToHellWithGA> thanks zoidberg_
[06:49] <zoidberg_> no prob
[06:50] <hawkaloogie> ToHellWithGA, ps -A | grep "gaim"
[06:50] <zoidberg_> i love the fre give and take environnet
[06:50] <zoidberg_> i swear ubuntu has the best support
[06:50] <zoidberg_> i LOVE YOU ALL!!!
[06:50] <zoidberg_> lol
[06:50] <Toma-> zoidberg: np!
[06:50] <hawkaloogie> i wonder if there's a law against IRC drunkenness
[06:50] <zoidberg_> lol
[06:51] <Toma-> hawkaloogie: theres a law against irc spamming (results in bans) and drunkenness makes you 10x more likely to be a PITA.
[06:51] <Darkprince> ToHellWithGA, you can also do " ps auxcf | grep gaim" and then "kill -9 " and the process ID
[06:51] <iGotNoTime> does anyone know if Rhythmbox is enought o sync with an MP3 player or do I need amarok?
[06:51] <ToHellWithGA> thanks guys, top let me find the process id
[06:52] <zoidberg_> anyways
[06:52] <ToHellWithGA> and kill # did the trick :)
[06:52] <hawkaloogie> ToHellWithGA, or you could just killall -9 "gaim"
[06:52] <zoidberg_> anyone know how to run COUNTERSTRIKE on lonux
[06:52] <zoidberg_> linux
[06:52] <zoidberg_> lol
[06:52] <phunkalicious> wine or cedega
[06:52] <phunkalicious> check the forums theres howtos
[06:52] <Darkprince> zoidberg, i would use cedega
[06:52] <Toma-> zoidberg: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam
[06:52] <Toma-> see that website
[06:52] <phunkalicious> it's going to be a pain in the ass however you do it
[06:53] <phunkalicious> and teamspeak is just >_< on linux
[06:53] <Darkprince> i'm in the process of installing WoW so i don't have to keep booting windows to play
[06:53] <Darkprince> teamspeak does blow in linux
[06:53] <dauoalagio> hello when i try to install ubuntu, it restarts my computer.  any ideas? its like a cycle
[06:54] <Darkprince> when i have some programs running, i don't get any sound from other programs. is there a way to fix it?
[06:54] <godzig> human: copying that malarky into the .mozilla/plugins folder installed just about everything EXCEPT java. So still there is a libjavaplugin.so but no java in about:plugins
[06:55] <Darkprince> godzig, something that i've found is kind of a fixall for most basic things anyway is easyubuntu
[06:55] <Xorlev> I just followed that guide today, Toma. Except with Cedega. Works like a dream, though some shading and alpha meshes are messed up.
[06:56] <Xorlev> Like floor grates for balconies, or barrels in dark areas.
[06:56] <Xorlev> HL2 + Linux == <3
[06:57] <Toma-> Xorlev: i dont play CS :D im too l33t. ;)
[06:57] <Darkprince> is there a way to fix it so that when i run some programs, they don't mute the sound from all my other programs?
[06:57] <Xorlev> I play HL2:DM.
[06:58] <Toma-> Anyone use ekiga? I cant get the ***tard to connect to other users. 500@ekiga.net works however.
[06:58] <ironfroggy> i used easyubuntu to install flash, but audio isnt working for it, tho its functioning otherwise.
[06:58] <ironfroggy> im running kde, so the sound probably needs to get through artsd?
[06:59] <Toma-> ironfroggy: youre using firefox i presume?
[06:59] <ironfroggy> yes
[06:59] <Toma-> ironfroggy: hummm. i thin k you need to make firefox stop using oss and start using artsd... how, im not sure
[06:59] <nin----jaaa> ...what is a good program to encode  different fileformats..like M-3 to wave???
[07:00] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: m-3?
[07:00] <dauoalagio> everytime i press enter on the installation screen, it restarts my computer. any ideas
[07:00] <harisund> Hello everyone. What do file permissions mean for directories?
[07:00] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, mp3**
[07:00] <SYSDmg> whos allowed to execute/read/write to files
[07:00] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: soundconvertor is in the repos and does a good job
[07:01] <Toma-> SYSDmg: depends on the files permissions?
[07:01] <nevyn> harisund: x means list contents w means create and r means access files by name
[07:01] <harisund> SYSDmg I mean, what does execute permission for a directory mean?
[07:01] <`Dude> !permissions
[07:01] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html - file permissions are explained at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:01] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, how would i get it im a linux noob..lol..
[07:02] <Toma-> !info soundconvertor
[07:02] <ubotu> Package soundconvertor does not exist in dapper
[07:02] <Toma-> !info soundconverter
[07:02] <ubotu> soundconverter: simple sound converter application for GNOME. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.8.3-0ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 32 kB, installed size 216 kB
[07:02] <harisund> nevyn that means if a folder is r and not x, I can read a file but not overwrite it there?
[07:02] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: have you enabled universe in Synaptic?
[07:03] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, how would i check
[07:04] <purserj> anyone familiar with the usplash source?
[07:04] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, ?
[07:04] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: run "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" and if it doesnt install, then you dont have universe enabled
[07:05] <nevyn> harisund: if you don't have w you can't write.. hrm... dunno test.
[07:05] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, got it thanks..i was bein dumb and had synaptic open wihile runnin the command
[07:05] <nevyn> if you don't have w on the directory you can't create...
[07:05] <harisund> nevyn that info page that ubotu pointed me was awesome .. I found out .. thanks :)
[07:06] <ic56> harisund: execute perm on a directory is used as search permision.
[07:06] <harisund> ah .. that makes more sense ..
[07:07] <ic56> harisund: it means you cannot open files within that directory, though you can see their filenames.
[07:07] <harisund> yes.. I am getting the picture now . :)
[07:08] <lampshade> I've always wondered if they were ever going to add a delete flag.... because I find that a lot of times it would be nice to be able to write, but still not delete....
[07:09] <lampshade> I think this was discussed once in the industry but nothing came of it
[07:09] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, what does it mean when it says no tags in soundconvertor
[07:09] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: means you dont have any infomation tags (artist, album name) in the file
[07:10] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, so it wont convert
[07:10] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: it wont? whats it saying?
[07:10] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, nothing
[07:11] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: so whats the error?
[07:11] <nin----jaaa> Toma-, it doesnt say anything..when i hit the convert button nothing happens
[07:12] <Toma-> nin----jaaa: have you installed the mp3 codec?
[07:12] <nin----jaaa> ya
[07:13] <Zuprem> hey, i need some help, too: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18495
[07:14] <zoredache_away> Zuprem: is this a web server you run?
[07:14] <jeff2> I'm trying to setup gpsd to use an MS GPS-360 connected via /dev/ttyUSB0. I can read the device using cat and see the GPS coordinates, but gpsd gives this output: http://rafb.net/paste/results/xPHNcR34.html
[07:15] <Zuprem> no, it's not mine. but if there are any modifications to the server that need to be done, i can talk to the administrator
[07:15] <primal> hello again...
[07:16] <ic56> lampshade: extra attributes were added that provide the "delete flag" functionality you mention.  man chattr and lsattr
[07:16] <beernutz> how do you configure sound cards in ubuntu?
[07:16] <zoredache_away> you probably should create a data directory seperate from your program directory, and adjust the ownership so that it is you:www-data the permissions set to 775
[07:16] <primal> question: i just typed "sudo  aticonfig --initial --overlay-type=Xv" and got this error message:
[07:16] <primal> Warning: Option 'VideoOverlay' doesn't affect running session.
[07:16] <primal> Warning: Option 'OpenGLOverlay' doesn't affect running session.
[07:16] <primal> Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:17] <primal> what do the warnings mean?
[07:18] <lampshade> primal: just that, changes won't take affect during this session, you will have to restart X  (ctrl+alt+bkspce) or if you don't want to do that, restart the whole machine  though restarting just X is much faster
[07:18] <zoredache> I suspect they mean that you need to restart your X session primal, or perhaps run the setup in a console... it is just a guess
[07:18] <primal> ah... makes sense then
[07:19] <primal> thanks
[07:19] <jumbers> Somebody should do something to get Adobe to release Flash 9 for Linux
[07:19] <jumbers> Flash player*
[07:19] <lampshade> yeah no kidding
[07:19] <zoredache> do you have a suggestion of what we could do jumbers ?
[07:19] <dibblego> sometimes an application somehow holds onto the sound so that no other application can use the sound, even after I close the original application - can I resolve it without a reboot?
[07:19] <jumbers> Petition?
[07:19] <cycom> zoredache: hostage situation would be right out.
[07:20] <lampshade> when that came out I lost viewing abilities on a lot of sites.  They switched over and I've been screwed since.  I hope the reverse engineered versions of flash actually beat Adobe to it, that would rule so hard haha
[07:20] <zoredache> personally I think we should yell at all the web developers that choose to use flash9
[07:20] <jumbers> Adobe is the problem though
[07:20] <jumbers> They release Windows/Mac stuff months and months before Linux
[07:20] <jumbers> Because they don't care
[07:21] <Vilkacis> Odd problem: su does not work. Fresh install. I put in the password for my main account, the only account I made, and I get an Authentication failure.
[07:21] <jumbers> You need to change the root password
[07:21] <cycom> Vilkacis: did you set up sudoers?
[07:21] <Vilkacis> It does at least apologize. That's nice.
[07:21] <cycom> Vilkacis: ohhhh
[07:21] <Vilkacis> No and ??
[07:21] <jumbers> http://www.ubuntuguide.org tells you how to change the root password
[07:21] <cycom> Vilkacis: Forgot this is ubuntu.  talk to jumbers.
[07:21] <ic56> !sudo
[07:21] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:21] <Vilkacis> cycom: What is sudoers?
[07:22] <cycom> Vilkacis: the people that can use sudo.  I was thinking of the wrong command.
[07:22] <Vilkacis> cycom: Ah. How do I change the root password, then? I was told, I think, that it was the one I entered when I installed.
[07:22] <jumbers> Vilkacis: Go to Ubuntuguide.org
[07:22] <jumbers> It tells you how
[07:22] <ic56> Vilkacis: in Ubuntu, root does not have a password
[07:23] <ic56> Vilkacis: instead, you use the command "sudo" to gain root privileges
[07:23] <jumbers> Follow this link http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_set.2Fchange.2Fenable_root_user_password
[07:23] <Vilkacis> I do, but that only works for 1 command line.
[07:23] <nalioth> Vilkacis: it is not advised that you change the root pass, Ubuntu was designed to use the sudo model
[07:23] <jumbers> Root does have a password if you set one
[07:23] <ic56> Vilkacis: "sudo su" will get you a root shell
[07:23] <nalioth> ic56: please do not advise that
[07:24] <nalioth> Vilkacis: use sudo -i for a super user shell
[07:24] <Vilkacis> ic56: ...that is confusing and brilliant. XD
[07:24] <nalioth> ic56: sudo su is redundant and can break things
[07:24] <Vilkacis> And I think it is what the friend of mine who originally suggested Ubuntu did, when I first had this problem.
[07:24] <ic56> nalioth: really?  What can it break?
[07:24] <lampshade> wait what's the difference between those two?  between sudo -i and sudo su?
[07:24] <Vilkacis> But I got the password set, so thank you.
[07:25] <nalioth> ic56: lampshade sudo is "superuser do" <action> and 'su' is switch user (to root)
[07:25] <gavagai> so what can it break?
[07:25] <nalioth> !root
[07:25] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:25] <nalioth> read the URL, please
[07:25] <NoName> anyone know if the IPEVO Skype Free -1 USB Phone works in ubuntu? if not has anyone used a usb microphone in ubuntu and skype successfully?
[07:25] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: you can give it a whirl
[07:25] <Darkprince> when i install a game using cedega, where does it actually install the files?
[07:26] <ic56> nalioth: I am well familiar with both su and sudo.  But you claim the usage "sudo su" can break things.  This I am not familiar with.  Please englighten me.
[07:26] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: most USB stuff has worked for me
[07:26] <Darkprince> in the cedega folder?
[07:26] <hyperstream> im copying 400 meg file off my cd, it started out at 8 mins ETA, then after 5 mins i checked back and it said 9 mins , checked back again after 10 mins of waiting and its not saying 11 mins eta????

[07:26] <Vilkacis> Anyone have any idea what the 'make' command does? Possibly something to do with Subversion? I am knee-deep in tutorials that give instructions but do not actually tell you what you are doing at the time.
[07:27] <lampshade> lampshade: well I knew what sudo was, that it was superuser do... but what's the diff between sudo -i something and sudo su...  what differences does that cause?  what's the diff between sudo something and sudo -i something?  well that I could look in the man pages, but what about the diff between being sudo this and sudo su then something. I've noticed I have more access when doing sudo su and then a command
[07:27] <NoName> shadow_pillar : I bought a logitech usb mic and could not get it to work under skype+ubuntu
[07:27] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: because ubuntu sees it as a new sound card
[07:27] <zoredache> Make runs a set of commands defined in the Makefile
[07:27] <lampshade> Vilkacis: make is a programming tool, basically it reads the makefile and that makefile has instructions on how to compile stuff.  Basically a shorthand so that a lot of other commands are done automatically.
[07:27] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: tbh, you're best off using a normal mic
[07:28] <Shadow_pillar> a headset, etc
[07:28] <jumbers> Where can I get a tutorial on building Cedega? (I don't want to pay to get the packages)
[07:28] <Vilkacis> lampshade: OK. I type 'make' and nothing happens. It does not think it's a command.
[07:28] <ic56> Vilkacis: the make command is used to run list of compiler executions and handle dependencies between different pieces of the software to be compiled.
[07:28] <ironfroggy> is there a way to pipe a file to gzip or bzip2, and just see what the final size would be without writing it anywhere?
[07:28] <NoName> shadowpillar : I sent it back in search for something else, and I did much troubleshooting on it, even skype hijacker, and I can't use normal mic because my sound card is broke
[07:28] <zoredache> Vilkacis is make installed you may need 'apt-get install build-essintial'
[07:28] <lampshade> oh, then you need to have it installed is all.  run the command sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[07:28] <lampshade> err essintial
[07:29] <nalioth> ic56: Ubuntu was designed for the sudo model, lots of users have been through here after enabling the root password with broken system (various things don't understand that "root" is active after the pass is reset)
[07:29] <hyperstream> im copying 400 meg file off my cd, it started out at 8 mins ETA, then after 5 mins i checked back and it said 9 mins , checked back again after 10 mins of waiting and its not saying 11 mins eta????
[07:29] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: that link I posted shows where you can set up the usb mic, though, you'd prolly be better off trying to get a usb soundcard instead.
[07:29] <Vilkacis> Excellent. It is installing.
[07:29] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: if that's your cup of tea
[07:29] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: on a laptop?
[07:29] <nn_> yay.. almost successful upgrade.. but how do i hold back the lvm2 package to the currently installed version during the dist-upgrade? there's for some reason an error installing the new package, well unpacking it
[07:30] <NoName> no its a desktop
[07:30] <nn_> I dont even use lvm so it's immaterial to me whether i have lvm2 support atm or not
[07:30] <nn_> i dont like LVM
[07:30] <tritium> jmspeex: that's normal
[07:30] <ic56> nalioth: what you just said doesn't answer my question.  I conclude that you have evidence that "sudo su" has some unexpected side-effect which "sudo -i" avoids.
[07:30] <Vilkacis> ...what is the command to delete files? T_T
[07:30] <tritium> jmspeex: it can take quite a while for bugs to be addressed.  There are thousands, after all...
[07:30] <ic56> nalioth: evidence --> no evidence
[07:30] <imMute> if I forgot my root password, how badly am I fucked?
[07:31] <nn_> VIlkacis: rm filename [...] 
[07:31] <IseeIsee> i installed the java_wireless_toolkit, in order to run it there is a file in it "ktoolbar" and its type is "shell script", I wanna run it from the terimal what command should I use ?
[07:31] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: prolly better off buying a new soundcard + mic, if no pci slots, get a usb soundcard, but if all else fails, check google for "usb microphone linux"
[07:31] <nalioth> ic56: i guess i'm back to being a parrot, excuse me for trying to look out for folks
[07:31] <Vilkacis> nn_: Thanks. Too used to dos still.
[07:31] <lampshade> imMute: you never set one.  unless you mean the password for yourself lol
[07:31] <nn_> Vilkacis: see also 'man rm'
[07:31] <Shadow_pillar> NoName: best advice I can give to you
[07:31] <nn_> Vilkacis: It'll explain the -r (recursive), -f (force) etc
[07:31] <nn_> Vilkacis: avoid -rf, it's scary :)
[07:31] <NoName> shadow_pillar, thanks
[07:31] <NoName> bye
[07:31] <imMute> lampshade: umm... yeah.. i set one for root, during the installation
[07:32] <Vilkacis> ...how do I get out of man rm? XD
[07:32] <zoredache> imMute: If you did set a root password simply boot off a livecd, mount / and then edit the shadow file...
[07:32] <nn_> Vilkacis: q
[07:32] <jumbers> Vilkacis: q
[07:32] <imMute> zoredache: ooh, okay, ill try that
[07:32] <Vilkacis> nn_: What if I want to delete a directory?
[07:32] <jumbers> Vilkacis: -d
[07:32] <nn_> Vilkacis, man pages are your friend heh, i prefer them over info pages.. Personally i think the info command (being emacs-ish) was created because of an envy against vi
[07:32] <lampshade> imMute: are you sure?  By default there is no root password so you would have had to taken extra steps to do it.  I'm not sure if you know about the whole no root password sudo stuff that Ubuntu does.  A lot of people get surprised by that
[07:32] <nn_> Vilkacis: -r
[07:33] <ic56> nalioth: np. "sudo -i" is the normal way.  But for people who learned unix without sudo, "sudo su" is easier to remember.  As far as I know the effect is the same, though I think you end up wasting a process.  I answered Vilkacis's question with "sudo su" because it was clear to me that he knew "su" and therefore would that easier to remember.
[07:33] <imMute> lampshade: yes i set one. it asked for a root password in the installation
[07:33] <lampshade> I am the worst latex person ever... seriously... can't format something to save my life lol
[07:33] <tritium> imMute: it doesn't
[07:33] <lampshade> no it doesn't
[07:33] <lampshade> it has you set your password only
[07:33] <nn_> lampshade: i'm worse, i'm allergic to latex
[07:34] <lampshade> hahaha
[07:34] <Vilkacis> rm -d tmp does nothing.
[07:34] <ic56> nalioth: would -> would find
[07:34] <nalioth> ic56: what trips a lot of folks up, is that Ubuntu is not 'your grandaddies linux'
[07:34] <imMute> so why cant I su -   and just hit enter when it asks for apassword?
[07:34] <lampshade> imMute: use sudo
[07:34] <IseeIsee> why do I have to write ./ before executing any app in terminal ?
[07:34] <lampshade> sudo commandhere
[07:34] <nn_> Vilkacis: rm -r dirname
[07:34] <jmworx> tritium: Well, at least acknowledging the bug as "confirmed" would be a goob step. Especially when it's obvious that it affects everyone (i.e. not a hard to reproduce bug that could be caused by something else).
[07:34] <nn_> IseeIsee: any app or just ones in the cwd?
[07:34] <jmworx> s/goob/good/
[07:35] <Vilkacis> nn_: There we go. Thanks.
[07:35] <tritium> jmworx: there are _many_ to triage through
[07:35] <jumbers> IseeIsee: To run a shell script, type "sh SCRIPTNAME"
[07:35] <ic56> imMute: the password you set during installation isn't for root but for your personal account.  the root account has a null password.
[07:35] <nalioth> IseeIsee: you should only have to type ./command for local (in the same directory) commands
[07:35] <IseeIsee> nn_: whats a cwd ?
[07:35] <lampshade> anyone have a list of commands/triggers for ubotu ?  or what you tell it to give you then?
[07:35] <dazvid> current working directory
[07:35] <nn_> Current working directory
[07:35] <lampshade> current workding directory
[07:35] <lampshade> dang I'm slow
[07:36] <nn_> Sorry, i'm used to programming channels :P
[07:36] <jmworx> tritium: So we should refrain from submitting more and make things worse?
[07:36] <sysrpl> hello
[07:36] <tritium> jmworx: I didn't say anything remotely close to that
[07:37] <IseeIsee> nalioth: yeah I guess so but is there a solution to not writing it everytime, I guess I heard once setting some PATH would make it not write everytime
[07:37] <sysrpl> i keep losing all sound when watching videos online at sites like youtube ... does anyone know what might be casing this?
[07:37] <noiesmo> hello all
[07:37] <ic56> IseeIsee: if a program is not in your $PATH, then you must specify where it is.  The current directory is not usually in your path so, if you want to execute a program located in whatever directory you are in, then you must specify its location: ./<program name>  (it's in "." -- the current directory)
[07:37] <nalioth> IseeIsee: the solution is, to add it to /usr/local/bin/
[07:39] <jmworx> tritium: This one: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/51242 is a pretty good example of what I mean.
[07:39] <IseeIsee> so ic56: how do I set $PATH ?
[07:39] <grigora> does anyone know what I need to do in order to see Armenian characters in Emacs? I can type Armenian into Firefox, so I know it works, but not Emacs. Thanks
[07:39] <knapper> I get no sound in flash
[07:39] <nn_> The cwd is not in the PATH var, due to 'security' issues, it's less of an issue now than it was historically (mostly because you're probably the only user on the machine anyways, but basicly if you were say in another users home directory or some such, mistyped a command or whatever, it might execute something nasty
[07:39] <noiesmo> Running dapper linux-image 2.6.15-26-386 I want to stop all sound relate modules from loading or tring to load as me laptop's onboard sound is broked
[07:40] <imMute> so what do I do when it asks for root's password?
[07:40] <ic56> IseeIsee: you can add "." to your PATH but doing so obviously creates a security hole.  The right way is to put the programs you want to execute in a standard directory.  You should rarely find yourself in need of using ./ and when you do, be thankful that you are explicitly reminded of the dangers of running software that isn't in a standard, authorized place (ie, software that could be a trojan horse).
[07:40] <noiesmo> it complains on boot about AC'97 Codec not ready error
[07:41] <sysrpl> i keep losing all sound when watching videos online at sites like youtube ... does anyone know what might be causing this?
[07:41] <sysrpl> i'd really like to be able to watch videos from youtubes with sound
[07:41] <tritium> imMute: it _doesn't_
[07:41] <lampshade> sysrpl: when you say losing, does it start and then stop or?  never start to being with?
[07:42] <imMute> tritium: no, when running updates i mean
[07:42] <lampshade> imMute: if something prompts you for it, like add remove programs, use your own password
[07:42] <sysrpl> i mean at some time it was working, then suddenly it it doesn't any longer
[07:42] <tritium> !rootsudo > imMute
[07:42] <lampshade> !rootsudo > lampshade
[07:42] <sysrpl> i have fixed the problem once before, but now it has gone mute again
[07:43] <imMute> tritium: i know what sudo is
[07:43] <sysrpl> it's very annoying
[07:43] <grigora> could someone help me install a ttf font file? thanks
[07:43] <ic56> IseeIsee: you can see the contents of your $PATH by using: "echo $PATH".  To change it, you need to set it in two places: ~/.bash_profile and ~/.gnomerc The first is read when you login via a console; the latter when you login via the GUI.
[07:44] <noiesmo> sysrpl, "alsactrl store" will get alsa to save sound settings
[07:44] <tritium> imMute: it doesn't seem that you do
[07:44] <lampshade> sysrpl: hmmmm  I dunno.  the only thing that has helped me on the no sound on youtube, and type stuff was to install alsaoss.  that seemed to work but I honestly don't really know why that works or anything like that
[07:44] <imMute> tritium: i come from Fedora, i didnt need sudo, i never used it, i know what it *is* though
[07:44] <nalioth> !fonts > grigora
[07:45] <tritium> imMute: you keep insisting that you're being asked for root's password, when that's not the case
[07:45] <imMute> okay, i restate
[07:45] <lampshade> imMute: actually, fedora and many other distros fully support sudo, they just don't do it automatically.  Basically whenever you want to do something as root from now on..  just sudo command instead of logging on as root and then executing the command
[07:45] <imMute> it asked me for *a* password, and coming from fedora, i assumed it meant root's
[07:45] <Shak-> are there any tools that enable to monitor/intervene an ssh session?
[07:45] <Corporal_Dirge> How would I get the exact ssize of a partition?
[07:46] <tritium> imMute: ubuntu uses sudo to enhance security
[07:46] <imMute> as for during the install, ive installed ubuntu and and 2 fedoras, i might have forgotten that ubuntu hadnt asked for a root password
[07:46] <zoredache> Shak is the person you wanting to monitor voluntairly allowing you to monitor the session?
[07:46] <imMute> tritium: how does using sudo enhance security if anyone can execute a command as root?
[07:46] <Shak-> zoredache: well im root, I want to view everyone despite them knowing it or not
[07:47] <tritium> imMute: you're mistaken.  Only sudoers can do that.
[07:47] <Corporal_Dirge> How do I see the size of a HDD partition?
[07:47] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: df
[07:47] <Corporal_Dirge> thabks
[07:48] <imMute> supose I give a family member an account on that computer, whats to stop them from sudoing something stupid?
[07:48] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: np
[07:48] <tritium> imMute: further, not having that one account that everyone and their brother would guess you'd have (root) makes it harder to guess a valid account name
[07:48] <Shak-> zoredache: I recall once I had an active ssh session on a remote computer, the admin was able to tap in and start typing into my terminal
[07:48] <ic56> imMute /etc/sudoers lists the users who are permitted to gain root privileges and which commands they are permitted to use.  The first user created during the Ubuntu install is given unlimited sudo privileges.  The others have none.
[07:48] <nalioth> imMute: you don't give them sudo access
[07:48] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone know how to set the root password for the first time on mysql?
[07:48] <tritium> imMute: what's to stop them?  Don't add them to the "admin" group when you add their user accounts
[07:49] <tritium> imMute: if you don't _explicitly_ add users to the admin group, they don't have sudo priveleges.  I thought you said you knew about sudo...
[07:50] <imMute> tritium: i said I knew what sudo is and what it does, however, i didnt say ive used and/or configured it before
[07:50] <Corporal_Dirge> bimberi_, hmm, that's showing a 55GB HDD as 236M
[07:51] <tritium> imMute: that's why I suggested you read the wiki page.  You'd learn a bit, and some of your questions would have been answered
[07:51] <RedGhost> does documentation exist on the linux syscalls exist already in ubuntu, if so what is the path?
[07:51] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: it doesn't show HDD capacity, only partition size
[07:51] <ic56> Shak-: ssh was designed to provide secure communications over untrusted lines.  Unless you modify the ssh source code to install a back door, you cannot monitor what is happening inside an ssh session, no matter what privileges you have.  That said, you can monitor other things at the end end points of hte ssh session, but that has nothing to do with ssh
[07:51] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: there is a gui tool too:  System -> Administration -> Disks
[07:52] <grigora> nalioth: thanks, but how do I make Emacs recognize the font now that I have installed it?
[07:52] <Corporal_Dirge> bimberi_, That's the partition size Gparted shows, but I need to get the exact size in bytes.
[07:52] <nalioth> grigora: i have no clue, as i've never in my days used emacs
[07:52] <grigora> nalioth: oh brother, you are missing out :)
[07:52] <Shak-> ic56: ah ok
[07:53] <l33t> hello
[07:53] <nalioth> grigora: you can tell me all about it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:53] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: size of your disk? or the partitions?
[07:53] <l33t> please dont swear
[07:53] <tritium> nalioth: you'd like it.  It's like buttering your bread with a 4-foot sword with built-in toaster and refrigerator, when all you really needed was a butter knife
[07:54] <Corporal_Dirge> I need the exact partition size in bytes before I run it through trucrypt
[07:54] <tritium> l33t: ?
[07:54] <l33t> someone swore
[07:54] <tritium> l33t: not since you joined
[07:54] <l33t> yeah
[07:54] <l33t> that guy did
[07:55] <RedGhost> what is the path of the syscall documentation on ubuntu
[07:55] <bimberi_> l33t: i think you misread the word disk - rofl
[07:55] <l33t> no
[07:55] <EdLin> RedGhost: if you mean glibc-doc that's info docs, use info or emacs's info system or pinfo to select and view it.
[07:56] <l33t> it was d*ck
[07:56] <tritium> RedGhost: see if they're in the manpages-dev package
[07:56] <tritium> l33t: you read it wrong
[07:56] <l33t> tritium: ?
[07:56] <RedGhost> EdLin, i mean interrupt codes not the glibc-doc
[07:56] <EdLin> RedGhost: for manpages-dev you use the "man" command
[07:56] <tritium> l33t: scroll up
[07:56] <EdLin> RedGhost: interrupt codes? Wrong OS.
[07:56] <RedGhost> no :\
[07:56] <RedGhost> int $80
[07:56] <l33t> tritium: ????????????, he swore
[07:57] <tritium> l33t: enough!
[07:57] <l33t> tritium: what?
[07:57] <tritium> Not my problem if you can't read
[07:57] <l33t> I can read
[07:57] <l33t> shut up
[07:57] <RedGhost> EdLin: syscalls like read/write
[07:57] <RedGhost> are done via interrupts
[07:57] <RedGhost> int $80
[07:58] <RedGhost> but i will check via man
[07:58] <EdLin> RedGhost: interesting, I didn't know that.
[07:58] <RedGhost> yes clib syscalls are wrappers for interrupts :)
[07:58] <RedGhost> *some*
[07:59] <RedGhost> the fun of assembly development :D
[07:59] <bimberi_> Corporal_Dirge: 'df -B 1' will show the partition sizes in bytes
[07:59] <EdLin> RedGhost: I'm thinking of getting that nostarch book "the art of assembly language"
[07:59] <RedGhost> the art of assembly language is actually very detailed and nice
[07:59] <RedGhost> the version i read a long time ago would be very out of data for today
[07:59] <EdLin> RedGhost: the last time I seriously programmed on assembler was on a 6502 on an Apple II.
[08:00] <RedGhost> but i imagine its since been updated
[08:00] <RedGhost> haha
[08:00] <RedGhost> before my time :D
[08:00] <kintaro0e> hi guys..i'm using ubuntu..how to write a cd?whats cd client for ubuntu?
[08:00] <IseeIsee> I just downloaded the tar.gz file of Eclipse, how can I install it on ubuntu ?
[08:00] <tritium> kintaro0e: nautilus itself can do it.  Otherwise, graveman, gnomebaker, and k3b.
[08:00] <RedGhost> IseeIsee: extract it with tar zxf or right click->extract
[08:00] <RedGhost> then right the readme
[08:01] <EdLin> RedGhost: the 6502 was a nice chip, lots of addressing modes compared to the 8080/Z-80
[08:01] <tritium> IseeIsee: I suggest you install the ubuntu package instead
[08:01] <tritium> EdLin: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:01] <EdLin> tritium: OK
[08:01] <tritium> thanks, bud
[08:01] <IseeIsee> tritium: how to install the ubuntu package & where will it be installed ?
[08:01] <kintaro0e> tritium..does k3b works fine in gnome?
[08:01] <ic56> IseeIsee: installing a .tar.gz is a manual process. You should read the documentation on the Eclipse homepage.  If they offer a .deb package instead, that will be easier because you can use dpkg to do all the work for you
[08:01] <Toma-> Has anyone got Ekiga? Also, can i try testing a connection?
[08:02] <kintaro0e> i thought its for kde..tritium
[08:02] <kintaro0e> :)
[08:02] <tritium> kintaro0e: I don't use it, but it does
[08:02] <RedGhost> EdLin:  Protected mode before it's time?
[08:02] <kintaro0e> tritium..what do you use then.. so that i could use it..its been tested because you use it.. :)
[08:02] <EdLin> RedGhost: no, and an op told me to take it off-channel BTW
[08:03] <RedGhost> damn ops
[08:03] <tritium> IseeIsee: make sure you have enabled apt-get to use the universe repo, and then it's installable via apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, etc.
[08:03] <RedGhost> controlling the world
[08:03] <tritium> RedGhost: it's offtopic.  Chill out.
[08:03] <RedGhost> i was just kidding dont take it so seriously
[08:03] <bimberi_> use emoticons then
[08:03] <RedGhost> good idea
[08:03] <EdLin> SDNWOTN
[08:03] <RedGhost> damn ops, controlling the world :P
[08:04] <DBO> I control the world? =)
[08:04] <bimberi_> much better ;)
[08:04] <IseeIsee> tritium: i have the repositories enabled as I've installed the JDK earlier, but tell me where can I know about the apt-get command to install eclipse ?
[08:04] <RedGhost> haha
[08:04] <EdLin> "this message is smilely captioned for the humor impaired"
[08:04] <tritium> !info eclipse
[08:04] <ubotu> eclipse: Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE. In repository universe, is optional. Version 3.1.2-1ubuntu6 (dapper), package size 100 kB, installed size 368 kB
[08:04] <ahzid> blargh
[08:04] <tritium> IseeIsee: %%
[08:04] <ahzid> just did a text install, went fine
[08:04] <IseeIsee> tritium: these commands should be available somewhere for us to see and not ask here
[08:05] <IseeIsee> tritium: what is %%
[08:05] <ahzid> booted up and got something about x server failing to start, because it wasn't configured or something
[08:05] <tritium> IseeIsee: it's just like installing any other package
[08:05] <tritium> IseeIsee: that was a mistake ;)  I meant to type "^^"
[08:05] <IseeIsee> I know how to install package only if I know the name of the package
[08:05] <IseeIsee> from where can I know the name of the package ?
[08:05] <nalioth> IseeIsee: then you will enjoy synaptic
[08:05] <ahzid> can someone tell me how to configure it or make it work?
[08:05] <tritium> IseeIsee: apt-cache search <term> can help you find things
[08:05] <nalioth> !xcfg > ahzid
[08:06] <tritium> e.g., apt-cache search eclipse
[08:06] <tritium> IseeIsee: but, as nalioth suggests, synaptic is a nice GUI from which you can search as well
[08:06] <IseeIsee> tritium: I don't see the SDK in the search results, I searched in synaptic as well before asking here
[08:07] <tritium> IseeIsee: it's there...
[08:07] <nalioth> IseeIsee: do you have universe and multiverse repos enabled?
[08:07] <tritium> !info eclipse-sdk
[08:07] <ubotu> eclipse-sdk: Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE. In repository universe, is optional. Version 3.1.2-1ubuntu6 (dapper), package size 19 kB, installed size 52 kB
[08:08] <ahzid> !xcfg
[08:08] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:08] <bimberi_> IseeIsee: gui apps (such as eclipse) can also be installed via Applications->Add/Remove...  Make sure you have "Show unsupported applications" checked
[08:09] <nalioth> ahzid: that was in a private message in your client
[08:09] <ahzid> i know, i didn't see xP
[08:09] <Posadri> hello
[08:10] <noiesmo> if lsmod returns that the device is not used ie Used by 0 does it need to be loaded or can i blacklist it to speed up boot time
[08:10] <noiesmo> device/module
[08:10] <IseeIsee> bimberi: you got it right, but I wanna know the terminal route to installation as well
[08:10] <roughtrader> hello, I am running 6.06 LTS on an AMD X2 machine. is the 686-smp or k7-smp kernel appropriate?
[08:11] <IseeIsee> also whats the problem with installing through the tar.gz file I downloaded ?
[08:11] <tritium> noiesmo: used by 0 only means other modules don't depend on it and use it.  You may still need it, though.
[08:12] <imMute> next question: how do I turn on sshd?
[08:12] <noiesmo> tritium, thanks how can i tell if its need
[08:12] <tritium> IseeIsee: it's not under package management.  Using official packages is more efficient, easier, and preferred
[08:12] <nalioth> IseeIsee: you should use the packages in the repos if at all possible
[08:12] <barneyR> anyone know the command to assign /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/modem?
[08:12] <RedGhost> any one know a text editor that supports ASM syntax hightlighting for Ubuntu, they all seem to support C, Perl, Etc but not Assembly
[08:13] <tritium> noiesmo: if it's been loaded, you likely need it
[08:13] <IseeIsee> right
[08:13] <bimberi_> IseeIsee: no problem per se.  It's just easier if you use the package manager because, for one you will get security updates etc.
[08:13] <noiesmo> tritium, ok thanks
[08:13] <tritium> noiesmo: hardware gets auto-detected, and modules get loaded based on what's found
[08:13] <roughtrader> hello, I am running 6.06 LTS on an AMD X2 machine. is the 686-smp or k7-smp kernel appropriate?
[08:14] <tritium> RedGhost: I believe that emacs does, at least for AT&T syntax
[08:14] <RedGhost> alright thanks ill check it out
[08:14] <noiesmo> tritium, yeah, the harddrive was transfered from another system and then upgrade thru apt-get and new linux-image installed
[08:14] <RedGhost> at&t is better then no syntax highlighting
[08:14] <nalioth> roughtrader: either will work, i'd think k8 would be most suitable
[08:15] <roughtrader> k8 is only for 64-bit installations, I'm running 32-bit
[08:15] <noiesmo> tritium, was in p2 with intel chips now in p3 with sis dont know if it matters
[08:15] <roughtrader> there seems to be some debate over which one is more appropriate
[08:15] <nalioth> roughtrader: how much ram you got?
[08:15] <tritium> noiesmo: don't worry, as most modules are auto-detected and loaded.
[08:15] <roughtrader> 2 Gig
[08:16] <nalioth> roughtrader: use the 686-smp
[08:16] <s_spiff> any1 using DD installtions for amd64 and knows wher i can find a dc++ client as a deb package? or a how to on installing it via another way?
[08:16] <IseeIsee> bimberi: Ok i have the universe repository enabled, now if I install through the terminal it won't get me the latest security update ?
[08:16] <roughtrader> nalioth: why is that?
[08:16] <tritium> IseeIsee: no, you'll still get security updates
[08:16] <nalioth> roughtrader: the 686 addresses large amounts of ram
[08:16] <roughtrader> the k7 doesn't?
[08:17] <lampshade> s_spiff: ubuntuguide.org
[08:17] <lampshade> should explain a dc++ package I think
[08:17] <lampshade> or how to install it
[08:17] <nalioth> roughtrader: i don't think so
[08:17] <noiesmo> tritium, cool one other thing is for some reason when i shutdown it doesnt turn it self off and it did under kernel 2.6.9 but now on 2.6.15 i have to turn off the power
[08:17] <roughtrader> cool, thanks
[08:17] <imMute> better question, how do I get a root shell?
[08:17] <tritium> noiesmo: on what machine?
[08:17] <noiesmo> sudo -i
[08:17] <tritium> imMute: sudo -i
[08:18] <jeny> hei
[08:18] <imMute> thank you
[08:18] <noiesmo> tritium, its p3 800Mhz  system with sis chipset
[08:18] <tritium> noiesmo: oh yeah, you mentioned that ;)
[08:19] <tritium> noiesmo: would you mind filing a bug on that?
[08:19] <noiesmo> tritium, for some reason when i shutdown it doesnt turn it self off and it did under kernel 2.6.9 but now on 2.6.15 i have to turn off the power
[08:19] <varun0> I was trying to compile my kernel and when I did a make clean, I got an error message......is it ok to paste it here (4 lines) or should I go to #flood?
[08:19] <jeny> oooo
[08:20] <tritium> noiesmo: right, that's what I'm hoping you'll file a bug on
[08:20] <s_spiff> lampshage : yeah, had that one long time back, but i think it is for i86 not amd64, not finding anything else, so i'm giving it a try
[08:20] <noiesmo> tritium, ahh ok yes i can
[08:20] <tritium> varun0: thanks for asking.  Please use pastebin
[08:20] <noiesmo> tritium, got a link for that
[08:20] <jeny> no smoking
[08:20] <Bergcube> jeny~  Hi.  What's on your mind?
[08:21] <Bergcube> noiesmo~  Link to pastebin; see channel topic.
[08:21] <tritium> noiesmo: noiesmo launchpad.net/malone
[08:21] <s_spiff> well didnt work!
[08:21] <noiesmo> tritium, ok ta
[08:22] <noiesmo> Bergcube, what i no paste
[08:22] <jeny> NO SMOKING
[08:22] <Bergcube> noiesmo~  Right.  I mixed up whom said what.  Mea culpa.
[08:22] <IseeIsee> is there any built in java-editor ?
[08:22] <noiesmo> Bergcube, np :)
[08:22] <tritium> IseeIsee: no, I'd say you're on the right track with eclipse
[08:23] <varun0> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18499 is the error I get after I do a 'make clean'
[08:25] <jeny> gambreng
[08:25] <varun0> make clean errors........anyone........:-) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18499
[08:25] <babo> can someone look at a regex for me ... ? ... http://pastebin.ca/94365
[08:25] <jeny> no
[08:25] <s_spiff> any1 knows a dc++ client for a amd64?
[08:25] <Bergcube> I must confess:  I do not always read howtos thoroughly.  (Yeah, I know it sounds shocking.  I will better myself.  Some day.)  But because of this -and in spite of using Ubuntu since 4.10 I don't really know HOW to report a bug.  Can anyone please take the time to fill me in quick and dirty?
[08:26] <tritium> jeny: please...
[08:26] <Ashex> !dc++
[08:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about dc++ - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:26] <nalioth> s_spiff: there are a couple in the repos for all arches
[08:26] <ic56> babo: sed cannot be used to remove newlines
[08:26] <jeny> dont cry
[08:26] <tritium> Bergcube: basically, sign up for an account on launchpad, if you don't have one, and then file bugs on launchpad.net/malone
[08:27] <ic56> babo: but there are ways to do what you want.  First let's verify what you need done.
[08:27] <Cyball> hi can somebody tell me how to make the icons on the desktop diapear (Ubuntu dapper) ??? thx :-)
[08:27] <babo> ic56: but it should remove the spaces though at least ...
[08:27] <ic56> babo: which spaces?
[08:27] <babo> ic56: the spaces in front of the name ...
[08:27] <babo> and behind the name
[08:28] <s_spiff> Ashex: there is dc++ for bb and dd, but for i86 arcitecture.. couldnt find anything with reference to smd64
[08:28] <ic56> babo: to remove those spaces, parse for them like so: ... sed -n 's| *<td>....
[08:28] <s_spiff> nalioth: thnx, will search it out.
[08:28] <nalioth> s_spiff: /msg ubotu info dcgui
[08:28] <Ashex> s_spiff, use linux32 if you need to run a 32-bit program
[08:28] <corevette> is anyone familiar with google analytics?
[08:28] <Mikkas> hey guys, how do i uninstall all these video and mp3 codecs? they arent working, and i cant watch any .avi or anything without crashing any app (vlc included)
[08:29] <babo> ic56: I want to take out the name first, then remove the spaces ... the second and third sed patterns work fine for removing spaces ...
[08:29] <Ashex> !tell Mikkas about codecs
[08:29] <noiesmo> tritium, on bug report filed. :)
[08:29] <babo> just not all together though ...
[08:29] <babo> :-)
[08:29] <noiesmo> on/one
[08:29] <babo> oops ... :-(
[08:29] <Bergcube> tritium~  I have the account.  I had to register it to get my lovely CDs in the snailmail.  Goody, I see the link there.  Somehow I cannot have managed to navigate from my launchpad page to there on my own.  10^3 thanks.
[08:29] <s_spiff> Ashex: where can i get linux32?
[08:29] <tritium> noiesmo: you rock!
[08:29] <ic56> babo: I see you tried to remove them with subsequent sed commands.  The trouble with that is by the time those commands are run, you have already output the matched line (you used the 'p' option to the 's' command)
[08:29] <corevette> no one knows about google analytics?
[08:29] <noiesmo> tritium, yeah but i still have to push the dam button lol
[08:29] <tritium> Bergcube: awesome :)
[08:29] <babo> ic56: aha
[08:29] <Ashex> s_spiff, use apt-get to grab it
[08:30] <noiesmo> tritium, :)
[08:30] <tritium> noiesmo: sorry, hopefully we'll get it resolved
[08:30] <s_spiff> Ashex: got it on syaptic...
[08:30] <ic56> babo: it's a lot more efficient to do it all in one parse.
[08:30] <varun0> make clean errors......going once......going twice.......http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18499
[08:30] <s_spiff> Ashex: but how to use it?
[08:30] <noiesmo> tritium, thats cool
[08:30] <Hexidigital_> is there a difference between using apt-get and aptitude?
[08:30] <noiesmo> tritium, if not i might have to bring my baseball bat over and sort someone out hahhaha
[08:31] <ozzloy> apt-get is command line, aptitude is gui (i think)
[08:31] <corevette> what irc client does everyone use?
[08:31] <Ashex> s_spiff, just type linux32 before the program
[08:31] <ozzloy> Hexidigital_: ^
[08:31] <tritium> ozzloy: actually, aptitude is also cli
[08:31] <ozzloy> corevette: irssi
[08:31] <Ashex> so, if i wanted to run xchat in 32-bit mode, linux32 xchat
[08:31] <Bergcube> tritium~  Is it ok to file bugs that are very very (very) hardware specific?  I.e. this works on all machines I've had in my tentacles expect ONE.  But there it REALLY doesn't work?
[08:31] <ic56> tado: if the input is more complex than you are displaying, then it's conceivable that you'd need to remove the spaces using a separate command.  If that's the case, remove them *before* printing.
[08:31] <Hexidigital_> ozzloy::  what about sudo aptitude install {package} in terminal?
[08:31] <tritium> Bergcube: definitely
[08:31] <ozzloy> tritium: oic.  Hexidigital_ nm then
[08:31] <corevette> how come you can't join a custom channel in xchat?
[08:31] <corevette> sorry a custom server
[08:31] <nalioth> corevette: /server server.address.here
[08:31] <Hexidigital_> tritium::  does one install dependencies, the other dosent?
[08:32] <dobblego> corevette, /server theserver
[08:32] <Bergcube> corevette~  Sure you can!
[08:32] <ic56> babo: if the input is more complex than you are displaying, then it's conceivable that you'd need to remove the spaces using a separate command.  If that's the case, remove them *before* printing.
[08:32] <tritium> Hexidigital_: they both do, but the nice thing about aptitude is that it also removed those dependencies when you remove the package (if nothing else is also depending on them)
[08:32] <tritium> s/removed/removes
[08:32] <Hexidigital_> tritium::  ah, i see.. .tyvm
[08:33] <s_spiff> does any1 know how to use linux32?
[08:33] <s_spiff> !linux32
[08:33] <barneyR> anyone know how I can check my connection speed on dialup using ppp0
[08:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about linux32 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:33] <noiesmo> tritium, so i take it i keep the bug number and i'll be able to see whats happenen with it
[08:33] <nalioth> !chroot > s_spiff
[08:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about chroot  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:33] <tritium> noiesmo: you should get email about it
[08:34] <babo> ic56: yes, I tried that - but it doesn't seem to work... it outputs nothing ...
[08:34] <s_spiff> !chroot
[08:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about chroot - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:34] <noiesmo> tritium, nice :)
[08:34] <ic56> babo: let's verify exactly what you need done.
[08:34] <tritium> :)
[08:34] <Mikkas> how do i get gstreamer?
[08:34] <s_spiff> Mikkas: synaptic or aptget
[08:34] <nalioth> s_spiff: linux32 is probably a chroot environment
[08:34] <corevette> how do i make a server autoconnect if it is custom?
[08:34] <babo> ic56: oh wait ... I think that's it ...
[08:34] <nalioth> s_spiff: you can find out how to chroot on wiki.ubuntu.com

[08:35] <ic56> babo: is there only one instance of this text in your html file or are you trying to extract one instance out of many? or (3rd possibility) are there many instances and you want to extract all of them?
[08:35] <s_spiff> nalioth: umm..noob so dunno what chroot is.. will search it out on wiki
[08:35] <nalioth> corevette: in your preferences, you can add/edit/delete server info
[08:35] <tritium> !pt
[08:35] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[08:35] <s_spiff> brb, have to change this chat client!
[08:35] <noiesmo> tritium, hay one last ? - when system prompts for pasword for maintenance and you give it what do you do once your at the prompt
[08:35] <tritium> Huehueh: sudo apt-get install dosemu
[08:35] <Bergcube> corevette~  On #xchat they'll tell you all you need.  I've gotten vry good and friendly help there every time I've asked.
[08:35] <varun0> scripts/Makefile.clean:17: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-26/drivers/infiniband/ulp/srp/Makefile: No such file or directory
[08:35] <tritium> !multiverse > Huehueh
[08:35] <varun0> any idea anyone?
[08:36] <Huehueh> tritium, fala
[08:36] <IseeIsee> how can I open a directory through termimal ? in fact is there a place where I can read about the common terminal commands ?
[08:36] <Huehueh> tritium, nao consegui fazer via apt-get acho que o repositrio precisa ser atualizado...
[08:36] <dobblego> IseeIsee, there is always google
[08:36] <Desh> If I am running 32bit Ubuntu on an AMD64, what kernel should I use?
[08:37] <tritium> !pt > Huehueh
[08:37] <babo> ic56: no, just one instance per page ....
[08:37] <Mikkas> ok
[08:37] <Mikkas> ive uninstalled gstreamer
[08:37] <Mikkas> and then reinstalled it
[08:37] <tritium> Huehueh: you likely need to setup the multiverse repo
[08:37] <Mikkas> but i cant play videos
[08:37] <nalioth> Huehueh: #ubuntu-br por favor
[08:37] <Mikkas> it keeps crashing
[08:37] <ic56> babo: ok. did you get the problem with the leading spaces solved?
[08:38] <babo> ic56: yes, thanks :-)
[08:38] <Huehueh> nalioth, to lah mas ninguem me responde :/
[08:38] <ic56> $u1: so what remains to be done?
[08:38] <Mikkas> anyone have any ideas why i cant play video?
[08:38] <ic56> babo: so what remains to be done?
[08:38] <nalioth> Huehueh: ingles aqui por favor
[08:38] <Huehueh> tritium, ok thanks!
[08:38] <noiesmo> ok I'm off bye thanks again tritium
[08:38] <babo> ic56: removing the newlines ...
[08:38] <Mikkas> im pretty sure my nvidia drivers are installed , and ive run easy ubuntu and automatix
[08:38] <tritium> Mikkas: both?
[08:38] <Mikkas> ive even tried VLC
[08:38] <Mikkas> yeh both
[08:39] <tritium> on the same install?
[08:39] <Mikkas> yeh...
[08:39] <Desh> If I am running 32bit Ubuntu on an AMD64, what kernel should I use?
[08:39] <tritium> wow
[08:39] <IseeIsee> dobblego: its not about there is always Google, an OS should have documentation of what you can do in it
[08:39] <humanpersonman> does anybody in here use gdesklets?
[08:39] <IseeIsee> dobblego: so I'm asking for that documentation
[08:39] <Mikkas> its totally not working at all
[08:40] <ic56> babo: sed cannot do that.  Perl could but it's too heavy for a simple task like this.  The right tool is bash's own parser.  Put the entire command inside backquotes and assign it to a variable.  If you surround the backquoted command with double quotes, the newline is preserved.  If you don't, it's lost.
[08:40] <ic56> babo: ie: name=`cat file .... sed ...'' `
[08:40] <Huehueh> Whay I can't use "make". Check out the error: bash: make: command not found
[08:40] <Seveas> !compiling > Huehueh
[08:40] <Huehueh> Why I can't use "make". Check out the error: bash: make: command not found
[08:40] <humanpersonman> !repeat
[08:40] <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
[08:40] <Mikkas> are logs created when programs crash??
[08:41] <corevette> is java preinstalled on ubuntu?
[08:41] <Bergcube> corevette~  No.
[08:41] <humanpersonman> corevette, no
[08:41] <corevette> where do you get it?
[08:41] <babo> ic56: that's strange, I'm doing that already, but it seems to be preserved .. ??
[08:41] <babo>  NAME=`cat "$f" | grep -A1 '<td><h2>Name</h2></td>' |  sed -n 's/^[ \t] *//;s/[ \t] *$//;s|<td><p>\(.*\)</p></td>|\1|p'`

[08:41] <Mikkas> anyone? i cant play video at all -- and i have before -- i know it works
[08:41] <Bergcube> corevette~  Take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[08:42] <nalioth> Huehueh: install 'build-essentials' with apt-get or synaptic
[08:42] <humanpersonman> corevette, enable the multiverse repository and then do 'sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[08:42] <babo> ic56: anyway, it's not the end of the world I guess. I can just write the letter a little differently ...
[08:42] <ic56> babo: why are you invoking a "cat" process?  Supplying the filename to the grep would be faster.  Or use input redirection:  < filename
[08:42] <dobblego> IseeIsee, man bash
[08:42] <nalioth> Huehueh: mi disculpa esta 'build-essential'
[08:42] <ic56> babo: show me the exact code, I'll tell you how to fix it
[08:42] <dumbledore> hi guys, anyone know where i can go to get help with image magick?
[08:43] <duckdown> Hey all, I am trying to search for a string in a directory but need a result that shows the filename.  (cat * |grep MYWORD shows the results I need to pinpoint..)
[08:43] <Huehueh> nalioth, what is this?
[08:43] <babo> ic56: that is the exact code ... I just take NAME and slot it into a MESSAGE, and then email it by php cli ...
[08:43] <IseeIsee> corevette: you mean the JDK ?
[08:43] <Bergcube> dumbledore~  Talk about being in character.  :-)
[08:43] <dumbledore> lol
[08:43] <nalioth> Huehueh: build-essential tenga 'make'
[08:43] <humanpersonman> Huehueh, it install a lot of the libraries needed for compiling source
[08:44] <Huehueh> ok thanks
[08:44] <Desh> If I am running 32bit Ubuntu on an AMD64, what kernel should I use, 386, 686, or k7?
[08:44] <Huehueh> I'll try it!
[08:44] <humanpersonman> Desh, 386
[08:44] <humanpersonman> or at least that is what i use
[08:44] <ic56> babo: how do you "take" the name?
[08:44] <corevette> iseeisee, no just normal java plugin for browsers
[08:45] <dumbledore> cause i was trying out the image magick tool composite
[08:45] <dumbledore> and it's not working right for me :|
[08:45] <Huehueh> nalioth, check out:
[08:45] <Huehueh> E: No foi possvel abri arquivo de trava /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permisso negada)
[08:45] <Huehueh> E: Impossvel criar lock no diretrio de listas
[08:45] <Mikkas> hey guys how do i test if my video codecs work --- i cant get anything that is a video to play, under any app at all
[08:45] <tritium> Huehueh: close synaptic
[08:45] <nalioth> Huehueh: you have more than one apt-get open (synaptic or adept or something else)
[08:45] <dumbledore> i tried the simple example they gave on this site: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/composite.php
[08:46] <RedGhost> does cp allow cut->paste instead of copy->paste from command line?
[08:46] <dumbledore> and the image came out like the second one instead of the third one 0.o
[08:46] <babo> ic56: just a sec
[08:46] <ic56> babo: ok
[08:47] <Bergcube> Mikkas~  Had I been in your shoes (nd had run both EasyUbuntu and Automatix) I would have tried this:  First booted the latest Knoppix DVD and cheked if video worked there.  (If not fucked up hardware.)  Then booted the live Ubuntu CD and checked if video worked there.  (If not esoteric drivers that Knoppix got but Ubuntu lacks.)
[08:47] <l33t> WTF
[08:47] <nalioth> Bergcube: langauage please
[08:47] <tritium> Bergcube: language
[08:48] <babo> ic56:http://pastebin.ca/94376
[08:48] <Mikkas> video has worked with exact same hardware before
[08:48] <babo> thanks :-)
[08:48] <daevux> g' evening, all - should I have any problems installing over an existing partition w/o reformatting so I can keep /home (and /backup and shit)? this is with dapper
[08:48] <humanpersonman> we censor language here?
[08:48] <tritium> humanpersonman: foul language, yes
[08:48] <humanpersonman> odd
[08:48] <nalioth> humanpersonman: there is no need for vulgarities here
[08:48] <nalioth> humanpersonman: if you want that sort of thing, go visit efnet
[08:49] <IseeIsee> i'm trying to build a java file through but I'm getting an exception:
[08:49] <IseeIsee> java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: /media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: cannot execute
[08:49] <tritium> Not odd, just mature and civilized
[08:49] <IseeIsee> I think it has to do something with access rights
[08:49] <ic56> babo: looking
[08:49] <Newbie-> hi alls
[08:49] <Newbie-> i have recently installed my ubuntu
[08:50] <dumbledore> noone a imagemagick guru?
[08:50] <J-_> !firefox
[08:50] <dumbledore> :(
[08:50] <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
[08:50] <humanpersonman> yeah, i know, if you don't like it leave, just seems odd to censor it so long as it is not targeted at somebody, even then I would think it odd but could understand it
[08:50] <tritium> congrats, Newbie- :)
[08:50] <Newbie-> whenever i login my Msn in gaim, the gaim messenger getting crash
[08:50] <tritium> Not odd, just mature and civilized
[08:50] <Bergcube> Mikkas~  The fact that hardware HAS worked does not at all in any way mean it has to be working still.
[08:50] <humanpersonman> good to know you have made that determination and are enforcing it
[08:51] <Mikkas> no i can play video in windows
[08:51] <IseeIsee> does this command has something to do with ubuntu access righs: java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: /media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: cannot execute
[08:51] <Mikkas> its software related now! cause ubuntu is a bit buggered
[08:51] <Newbie-> Will you tell me, whats the problem with the Gaim, why its getting crash when im signing my msn
[08:51] <Mikkas> im reinstalling automatix again to see if it will work
[08:51] <Bergcube> Mikkas~  I bet you it is driver related.
[08:51] <Mikkas> ok
[08:51] <tritium> Mikkas: be careful with automatix
[08:51] <l33t> WTF
[08:51] <Mikkas> bad nvidia driver ay
[08:52] <humanpersonman> i think l33t is a bot
[08:52] <Newbie-> somebody.
[08:52] <l33t> why?
[08:52] <l33t> I am not a bot
[08:52] <Bergcube> Mikkas~  And my experience is that Automati = bad; Easybuntu = good.  But that can of course (again) be because of hardware.
[08:52] <tritium> l33t: cut it out, or it'll be more than a kick this time
[08:52] <Newbie-> my Gaim is not working correctly, crashing again and again whenever i logged my msn
[08:52] <l33t> I am not a bot though
[08:52] <Mikkas> yeh but, easyubuntu doesnt allow to uninstall drivers
[08:52] <humanpersonman> i thought you were because every couple of min you just said WTF
[08:52] <Mikkas> its greyed out now
[08:53] <l33t> WTF?, I did it twice
[08:53] <tritium> humanpersonman: I noticed that too...
[08:53] <Newbie-> somebody here to help me out.
[08:53] <humanpersonman> yeah, that is all I saw, thought it was a funny premise for a bot, one which might fly under the radar for quite a while
[08:53] <Bergcube> Mikkas~  That is why Ubuntu has Synaptic.  EasyUbuntu simply does loads of stuff you could have done yourself in Synaptic.  And you'll be glad you master it anyway.
[08:53] <Newbie-> Seveas, will you please let me know why my Gaim is crashing when im logging my msn
[08:54] <corevette> i don't understand where or what java is called in synaptic
[08:54] <Seveas> Newbie-, because the solar flares interfire with the arctic winds
[08:54] <tritium> corevette: sun-java5-* packages
[08:54] <l33t> Seveas: lol
[08:54] <Newbie-> Seveas, so what i have to do now to solve this problem.
[08:54] <tritium> Seveas: that was fixed in dapper ;)
[08:54] <dumbledore> Newbie-: did you install all the updates after u installed? :P
[08:54] <Bergcube> corevette~  Did you look at (and read) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats   AFAIK it's all xplained there.
[08:55] <RedGhost> cp is for copy, what about cute->paste, i used chmod to change the directory permissions and then use gnome to cut/paste but if someone could give me a tip on how to cut/paste from commandline id appreciate
[08:55] <Seveas> Newbie-, travel to mars and back
[08:55] <Newbie-> you are funny Seveas.
[08:55] <dumbledore> RedGhost: tried mv?
[08:55] <humanpersonman> Seeveas appears to have confused the norhtern lights and gaim crashing, easy mistake
[08:55] <Newbie-> dumbledore, not yet bro. i will download my updates later.

[08:56] <watson540> whoops
[08:56] <watson540> sorry guys
[08:56] <tritium> watson540: don't paste please.  Use pastebin.  No problem...
[08:56] <RedGhost> dumbledore: thanks
[08:56] <dumbledore> RedGhost: np man
[08:57] <l33t> hello?
[08:57] <ic56> babo: sorry it took a while, I bumped into some unexpected behaviour when trying to replicate my original advice.  I think bash has a feature to solve teh most common case of this (yours isn't the most common case)
[08:57] <tritium> !ask
[08:57] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:58] <babo> ic56: no probs, I appreciate the effort ... :-)
[08:58] <corevette> whoever told me about https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java ..... i followed the steps and it says 'couldn't find package sun- java5-bin'
[08:58] <babo> you've helped me out enormously so far ic56 ... :-)
[08:58] <ic56> babo: anyway, so, you're saying you get a newline between Hi $NAME and the subsequent comma?  This doesn't make sense.
[08:58] <babo> ic56, indeed
[08:58] <tritium> corevette: make sure you've enabled multiverse repo
[08:58] <tritium> !multiverse > corevette
[08:59] <corevette> tritium, i did
[08:59] <tritium> corevette: did you update your package list after that?
[08:59] <corevette> tritium, i have to update my package list everytime i load up synaptic...is that normal?
[09:00] <tritium> corevette: yes
[09:00] <ic56> babo: ah, I see why. the $( is effectively acting as a double quote, preserving the newline.  Let me think...
[09:00] <fuoco> i'm trying to burn ubuntu 6.06 on a cd, but it says i need a cd of 702 MB. what can i do ?
[09:02] <ic56> Add a line like this:  NAME=`echo $NAME`  # get rid of trailing newline.
[09:02] <ic56> babo: Add a line like this:  NAME=`echo $NAME`  # get rid of trailing newline.
[09:03] <ic56> babo: hmmm, I think I learned something here.  Thanks babo!
[09:03] <babo> ic56: no, thank you ic56 ...:-)
[09:03] <ic56> babo: BTW, you shouldn't use uppercase names for ordinary variables.
[09:03] <daevux> can I install dapper on an existing filesystem w/o reformatting it, so I can keep /home? (I've moved home and some other dirs to /old, which ubuntu shouldn't touch) - I will manually delete all other dirs (/usr, etc) before installation
[09:04] <ic56> babo: uppercase is, by convention, reserved for *environment* variables -- those which get inherited by child processes
[09:04] <babo> ic56: ah, ok ... cool
[09:05] <ic56> babo: the other thing you might want to do is eliminate the cat and grep commands.  The whole thing can be done in sed.  This saves you 2 out of 3 processes.  Starting processes is CPU expensive so your script will run a lot faster if it uses fewer procs
[09:06] <babo> ic56: ok thanks ... :-)
[09:06] <ic56> $u1: to really optimize, use one sed script to extract both NAME *and* EMAIL.
[09:07] <ic56> $u1: and the $(cat  when setting $MESSAGE is unnecessary.  A single double quote would suffice.
[09:07] <ic56> babo: to really optimize, use one sed script to extract both NAME *and* EMAIL.
[09:07] <ic56> babo: and the $(cat  when setting $MESSAGE is unnecessary.  A single double quote would suffice.
[09:08] <ic56> babo: ie: message="Hi $name,<newline>... David<newline>"
[09:09] <ic56> babo: you ok with all that?
[09:10] <babo> ic56: yep, I think I got it thanks ic56 :-)
[09:11] <ic56> babo: are you familiar with sed's "n" command? you'll need it to eliminate the grep
[09:11] <babo> ic56: yes, the quiet command ...
[09:12] <ic56> babo: no the (n)ext command
[09:12] <humblerodent> anyone here know anything about Xubuntu?  there doesn't seem to be a ton of activity in #xubuntu
[09:12] <River_Max> when using ubuntu dapper drake, after logging onto gaim and connecting with handshake, gaim drops out .. can anyone tell me how to correct the error ?
[09:12] <humblerodent> I've installed practically every package related to ALSA, and I've used my sound card flawlessly in the past with ALSA.
[09:12] <humblerodent> but I don't get any sound output
[09:12] <humblerodent> :(
[09:14] <MrWizard> HELLO!!!
[09:15] <River_Max> can someone help with a Gaim not staying connected problem
[09:15] <MrWizard> I`m having some problems with my Ubuntu
[09:15] <MrWizard> is there anyone that could hlp me?
[09:15] <Madpilot> MrWizard, some help might be available, but "some problems" is fairly vague...
[09:15] <Madpilot> ;)
[09:15] <humblerodent> probably, MrWizard, what's up? :)
[09:15] <MrWizard> i cannot connect to the internet
[09:15] <humblerodent> rofl
[09:16] <humblerodent> good job getting in an IRC channel then
[09:16] <humblerodent> :-P
[09:16] <MrWizard> i have installed yesterday morning the latest version of ubunut
[09:16] <MrWizard> I am talking from Windows now!
[09:16] <babo> ic56: hmm ... I'll have a look at it...
[09:16] <River_Max> humblerodent: I heard the thud as you hit
[09:16] <MrWizard> as i was saying
[09:16] <MrWizard> i have installed it yesterday
[09:16] <MrWizard> made the updates
[09:16] <humblerodent> lol
[09:17] <MrWizard> and then restrted the system
[09:17] <MrWizard> since then i cannot connect neither by dhcp nor by is static address
[09:17] <MrWizard> restarted*
[09:17] <MrWizard> so... do you have ny ideas?
[09:17] <ic56> babo: you'll need to do this: sed '/...<h2>Name.../{ n; s/^[ \t] *...\(.*\)...//p;}
[09:18] <ic56> babo: you'll need to do this: sed '/...<h2>Name.../{ n; s/^[ \t] *...\(.*\)...//p;} "$f"
[09:18] <fuoco> i'm trying to burn ubuntu 6.06 on a cd, but it says i need a cd of 702 MB. what can i do ?
[09:18] <humblerodent> MrWizard: what kind of a network is it on?
[09:18] <ic56> $u1: the initial pattern keys-in on the title line. and the group of commands inside the braces get executed when that pattern matches.
[09:18] <MrWizard> cable
[09:19] <ic56> babo: the initial pattern keys-in on the title line. and the group of commands inside the braces get executed when that pattern matches.
[09:19] <MrWizard> i am connected to internet by cable
[09:19] <ic56> babo: inside the braces, n gets the next line (and since you're using sed -n, the current line doesn't get output) and the s/.../.../p modifies and prints the line containing the actual name.
[09:20] <babo> ic56: cool thanks ... :-)
[09:20] <humblerodent> MrWizard, but I mean what kind of a LAN are you on.  Any routers, firewalls, other computers
[09:20] <humblerodent> or do you just go straight from one computer into the cable modem?
[09:21] <babo> ic56: one more question about my script ... the if ( grep $EMAIL $PREVIOUS) ... part ... the script emails even if the email address is already in the previous file ... :-( ..
[09:21] <MrWizard> there is a cable coming to my modem and from my modem one to my computer to the lan port
[09:21] <MrWizard> ao yes
[09:21] <MrWizard> so yes
[09:21] <Wiseguy> hey guys, whats a good app for burning iso's?
[09:21] <SupaMum> after upgrading from Ubuntu Breezy Badger to Dapper Drake, the kids lost their Gaim connections, they can log on but it drops out withing 2 seconds. Can anyonwe help me out, I can find no docs, fixes and they are driving me nuts !
[09:21] <babo> ic56: that shouldn't happen right ?
[09:22] <MrWizard> straight from the computer to the modem
[09:22] <humblerodent> okay, so you should be able to get DHCP working....
[09:22] <ic56> babo: yw!  Next time I see you, if you want to merged the 2 sed commands into one and ifgured that out yet, I'll show you how to use bash's "eval" command to get set multiple variable definitions generated inside the sed script
[09:22] <MrWizard> i know
[09:22] <humblerodent> did you EVER have the Ubuntu system connected at all?
[09:22] <ic56> babo: thinking
[09:22] <twa1296> Wiseguy, i just right-click the iso file and select "write to cd" otherwise try gnomebaker
[09:22] <humblerodent> did it work, and then not work?  or did it just never work?
[09:22] <MrWizard> yes i had ecause after installing the system i updated it
[09:22] <Madpilot> Wiseguy, in Ubuntu? Just right-click on them, choose Burn To Disc, done.
[09:22] <humblerodent> oh, okay
[09:22] <babo> ic56: ok cool thanks
[09:23] <humblerodent> was it using DHCP then?
[09:23] <MrWizard> ye
[09:23] <MrWizard> yes
[09:23] <humblerodent> hrm....that's odd....
[09:23] <MrWizard> i know
[09:23] <humblerodent> more than one network device installed in the box?
[09:23] <imMute> how do I install sshd?
[09:23] <humblerodent> (regardless of whether it's linked to anything)
[09:24] <MrWizard> in the box where i can configure the network there are two possible networks
[09:24] <ic56> babo: first of all, the parentheses are incorrect.  It happens to work and not give you a syntax error but they don't do what you think.  The correct syntax for bash is:  if grep $name $previous; then<newline> ...
[09:24] <MrWizard> one that has no options
[09:24] <MrWizard> and the one i can configure
[09:24] <humblerodent> MrWizard, that means you've got two adapters in the machine.  Sometimes I've experienced on bootup they can get detected in different orders and cause them to register backwards.
[09:24] <humblerodent> Try disabling the one that's currently enabled, and enable the other one for DHCP.
[09:25] <MrWizard> ok
[09:25] <MrWizard> i`ll try
[09:25] <humblerodent> see what happens.
[09:25] <MrWizard> i`ll restart the system, boot to Ubuntu
[09:25] <humblerodent> okay but
[09:25] <ic56> babo: the parentheses start a subshell.  In this case that's innocuous
[09:25] <humblerodent> when you get rebooted
[09:25] <humblerodent> see if the network works first
[09:25] <MrWizard> check what happens and come back
[09:25] <humblerodent> and if it doesn't
[09:25] <humblerodent> then switch the adapter in the config
[09:25] <ic56> babo: (but wasteful)
[09:25] <humblerodent> disable the one, enable the other
[09:25] <humblerodent> and try it again
[09:25] <humblerodent> :)
[09:26] <MrWizard> ok
[09:26] <SupaMum> how can I stop Gaim from dropping out in Dapper Drake ?
[09:27] <humblerodent> SupaMum, cast a magic spell on it
[09:27] <SupaMum> humblerodent: fabulous suggestion, but I can't find the right enchantment in my spell book, any suggestions?
[09:28] <humblerodent> lol
[09:28] <SupaMum> :-)
[09:28] <humblerodent> is it just exiting, or what?
[09:28] <SupaMum> humblerodent: logs on as pe normal, hanshakes fine, opens up then dumps out after 2 secs
[09:29] <ic56> babo: yes.  assuming the echo $NAME were uncommented, the grep should succeed and the continue should get executed, preventing a duplicate mailing.  Note you should either use grep -q or redirect the output of grep -- otherwise you'll see all the duplicates displayed when you run the script (maybe you wanted that, though)
[09:29] <pdxSE> SupaMum:  All accounts, or just MSN?
[09:29] <humblerodent> SupaMom, hm....what protocols are you using?
[09:29] <humblerodent> :-P
[09:30] <SupaMum> pdxSE: MSN, but then again, not using Gaim for other accounts
[09:30] <humblerodent> any chance it could just be the MSN server being gay?
[09:30] <humblerodent> sometimes it does that
[09:30] <humblerodent> it usually lasts a good few hours or even days
[09:30] <humblerodent> when it does happen
[09:31] <SupaMum> humblerodent: yes, chance ... but unusually consistent and on 2 out of 5 machines
[09:31] <s_spiff> brb
[09:31] <humblerodent> hm....yeah, I can get to MSN on mine
[09:31] <humblerodent> that's weird
[09:31] <ic56> babo: however, this is a slow way of going about the task.  You are having to linearly search through a growing list of names once for each name.  That's a very slow algorithm.  A better way is to first output all the names and addresses into a file.  Then sort |uniq the file.  sort will use a more efficient algorithm than what you are using and, more importantly, it will be a single process for the whole script rather tha
[09:31] <humblerodent> is your GAIM up-to-date?
[09:32] <SupaMum> humblerodent: we have 5 machines on the network, all have been upgraded, 2 can't stay connected to MSN via Gaim and Gaim seems to be up to date on all machines
[09:32] <humblerodent> they are all on Ubuntu?
[09:32] <SupaMum> humblerodent: yes, dapper drake all over
[09:32] <ic56> babo: one grep process for each name.  "uniq" will remove duplicates.  Then you can loop through the file, sending one message for each name/address in the file.
[09:33] <humblerodent> odd....
[09:33] <hangfire> have you checked your profile on gaim to make sure that the password and everything is ok?
[09:33] <SupaMum> humblerodent: very, i have tried everything i can think of, that is why I have turned to the Guru's for help
[09:33] <humblerodent> heh
[09:34] <humblerodent> ironically, I'm only in here because of my own problem
[09:34] <humblerodent> :-P
[09:34] <SupaMum> hangfire: all seem ok, as it logs on fine, but drops out within 2 seconds, not enough time to get a click happening so I can't check
[09:34] <twa1296> SupaMum: does gaim actually quit or merely drop the connection?
[09:34] <humblerodent> SupaMum, are the machines' security settings any different?
[09:35] <SupaMum> humblerodent: all the same
[09:35] <hangfire> well than its probably not logging in fine, you probably got in on auto-login with something filled out wrong in your profile
[09:35] <Oni-Dracula> anyone know the swiftfox equivelent path for /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[09:35] <SupaMum> twal1296: not sure, they load up then shut down, i will check to see if they appear online
[09:35] <vook> SupaMum, that account isn't logged in anywhere else is it?
[09:35] <humblerodent> hangfire, I just deliberately put in a wrong password on mine, and it doesn't even get a connection established, but rather gives an error message saying that your login information is wrong ;)
[09:36] <pdxSE> SupaMum: have you tried opening a terminal window and running "gaim -d" ?
[09:36] <leftjustified> hi, can anyone here recommend a good UML app for ubuntu? DIA, ArgoUML and Umbrello fall far short of my needs and I can't find anything else
[09:36] <pdxSE> to get debug log
[09:36] <SupaMum> pdxSE: not yet ...
[09:37] <SupaMum> pdxSE: How do iterpret the output of that ?
[09:37] <pdxSE> leftjustified:  Try Netbeans 5.5 with the enterprise pack.  Still in beta, but pretty good.
[09:37] <overrider> i dont think neither firefox or opera is regarded as lightweight, but which will perform better on a lower end machine?
[09:37] <leftjustified> pdxSE: thanks!
[09:37] <MrWizard> back
[09:37] <pdxSE> leftjustfified:  You can also google for "argouml"
[09:38] <MrWizard> i tried what you said
[09:38] <MrWizard> but
[09:38] <MrWizard> there is a problem
[09:38] <pdxSE> I like Netbeans with the IDE integration.
[09:38] <leftjustified> pdxSE: argo isn't enough -- i use Enterprise Architect on Windoze and need an equiv. for linux (other than running EA under wine, which is slow and buggy)
[09:39] <MrWizard> the other option i was telling you about is already deactivated and reffers to dial-up
[09:39] <humblerodent> the only GUI browser I know of (and there are probably plenty I don't know of) that is truly "lightweight" by the real definition of the word, is dillo.  But dillo blows....I can't seem to get a lot of websites to show up right on it.
[09:39] <SupaMum> vook: no, they don't even appear to be logged on .. my Gaim works fine and all the kids are offline eventhough they have all tried to get on,
[09:39] <MrWizard> i tried what you said
[09:39] <humblerodent> MrWizard, so it's offering you only one actual network adapter, then?
[09:39] <MrWizard> but
[09:39] <MrWizard> there is a problem
[09:39] <MrWizard> the other option i was telling you about is already deactivated and reffers to dial-up
[09:39] <humblerodent> I heard you the first time....
[09:40] <MrWizard> ok
[09:40] <MrWizard> sorry:D
[09:40] <humblerodent> lol np
[09:40] <humblerodent> ^
[09:40] <humblerodent> my response
[09:41] <pdxSE> leftjustified:  I would go with the Netbeans product.  For $$ IBM offers Rational Architect on Linux.
[09:41] <hangfire> what about the uml on eclipse? is that good?
[09:42] <stardrifter> does anyone know how to turn off console output, is there some command to do this?
[09:42] <leftjustified> pdxSE: sad to say, but the feature of Enterprise architect I use most at work is PHP5 and actionscript2 code generation... I don't like my chances of making that happen in NetBeans (though there may be a PHP plugin, looking now...)
[09:42] <humblerodent> MrWizard, you still with me?  I need to know if there is only one network adapter in the computer, or if there are 2+.
[09:43] <MrWizard> still here
[09:43] <MrWizard> one!!!!
[09:43] <pdxSE> hangfire:  I have only used Rational Architect (eclipse-based) which is really good, however, I have not used the eclipse plug-in approach.
[09:44] <humblerodent> hm....I don't know :(
[09:44] <hangfire> control d to stop output (I think)
[09:44] <MrWizard> ok
[09:44] <stardrifter> no i mean stop characters being printed to the screen
[09:44] <humblerodent> sorry dude
[09:44] <stardrifter> as in characters typed in
[09:44] <humblerodent> I guess since I couldn't help him, no one else here can.
[09:44] <humblerodent> :-P
[09:45] <twa1296> MrWizard: you might want to post some command outputs in the networking section of the ubuntuforums
[09:45] <hangfire> I dont get it, you mean going in some other kind of mode in the shell?
[09:46] <humblerodent> he already left, twa1296....hence my comment
[09:46] <Bonez> what else can I do to my ubuntu system to make it bling
[09:46] <humblerodent> :(
[09:46] <stardrifter> i should probably explain the situation, basically writing a c# prog, and a password needs to be input, but i want to hide the characters that are typed
[09:46] <SupaMum> humblerodent: do you have any magic spell to fix Gaim ?
[09:46] <humblerodent> Bonez, install some really cool GTK themes that consume your memory!  BLING!
[09:46] <twa1296> humlerodent yeah
[09:46] <humblerodent> lol no, sorry
[09:46] <Bonez> humblerodent, that's what I was thinking of... rofl. but I can't find any themes that I like :)
[09:46] <humblerodent> lol
[09:47] <SupaMum> does anyone on chanel know the spell to fix Gaim
[09:47] <bsn_ua> hello everybody
[09:47] <Bonez> SupaMum, what is wrong with gaim?
[09:47] <humblerodent> fairly lightweight compared to Gnome/KDE ^_^
[09:47] <znh> SupaMum: try a different client. For instance your IRC client, you may like to try Bitlbee
[09:47] <pdxSE> humblerodent: are you running KDE or Gnome?
[09:48] <Bonez> actually speaking of Gaim, does anyone know how to make it so that it shows when your buddies "close the conversation window" when using the MSN protocol?
[09:48] <SupaMum> Bonez: Gaim will not stay logged in since we upgraded to Dapper
[09:48] <bsn_ua> i now it's not good but i will install windows xp on my laptopp again
[09:48] <humblerodent> pdxSE: XFCE....that's what Xubuntu is all about :)
[09:48] <twa1296> Bonez, mine seems to do so by default
[09:48] <hangfire> stardrifter- I know there is a way to do that in C, but I cant remember it now, the only thing I can think of is putting backslashes in front of each letter
[09:48] <bsn_ua> because ubuntu cannot do all things without bBUGS
[09:48] <Bonez> twa1296, yeah mine used to but it hasnt been doing it lately for some strange reason, and i can't find any options to enable it
[09:49] <humblerodent> Bonez, mine already does that
[09:49] <twa1296> Bonez, do you have the Buddy State Notification plugin activated?
[09:49] <humblerodent> well I ran a script and I need to restart X.  If I don't come back then my problem got fixed.  later guys :)
[09:49] <stardrifter> hangfire: i don't think that would work since doesn't the input get printed then go to the c# stin?
[09:49] <Bonez> twa1296, yes I do
[09:49] <bsn_ua> does anybody have toshiba laptop?
[09:50] <znh> bsn_ua: yes
[09:50] <Bonez> bsn_ua, yes I do have a toshiba
[09:50] <leftjustified> please excuse my linux-newb question, but what do I do with a bin file? make install etc?
[09:50] <bsn_ua> i have some problems on my toshiba laptop
[09:50] <househead> i do - tecra m5
[09:50] <Bonez> leftjustified, sh ./filename.bin
[09:50] <leftjustified> thanks Bonz
[09:50] <SupaMum> znh: IRC works on Gaim ... I wonder why MSN doesn't
[09:50] <leftjustified> Bonez*
[09:51] <househead> bsn_ua> why you ask
[09:51] <humblerodent> crap, didn't fix it
[09:51] <humblerodent> :(
[09:51] <Bonez> bsn_ua, what problems do u have?
[09:51] <househead> MSN works on gaim for me in Linux, but the Windows ver doesn't for some reason
[09:51] <humblerodent> does anyone else in here know why I might not be getting any sound in Xubuntu?
[09:51] <bsn_ua> my fn keys does not work and card reader also doesn'twork
[09:51] <househead> bsn_ua> apt-get install toshutils
[09:51] <humblerodent> it detects my sound card fine.  I installed pretty much every package related to alsa.  the mixer looks good.
[09:51] <bsn_ua> i know that i must to recompile my kernel
[09:51] <Bonez> bsn_ua, sorry i've never actually tried to get either of those working... hehe maybe someone else can help
[09:51] <labreche> Hi,

[09:53] <humblerodent> labreche, I don't get how to make html pages without making html code

[09:54] <Bonez> this channel has a LOT of idler's :)
[09:54] <spazzz_> I'm on a toshiba, Can I help maybe?
[09:54] <SupaMum> bones: thanks .. i might try uninstalling and starting Gaim again after I check their MSN accounts in windoze
[09:54] <Bonez> SupaMum, no worries. hopefully eventually you'll be able to remove that dreaded windoze partition eventually :)
[09:54] <Madpilot> bsn_ua, looks like there's a bunch of Toshiba sattelite models on that page - have a look
[09:55] <spazzz_> I was hoping someone could help me with SAMBA try as I might I can never get it to work properly.  I was hoping they had this fixed for dapper
[09:55] <Bonez> spazzz_, i am also having config problems with samba, what issues are you having?
[09:56] <spazzz_> Bonez: Well there is some improve ment.  In Breazy it never would even see the workgroup
[09:56] <bsn_ua> i can't turn on my cardreader on my tosgiba laptop

[09:57] <infeld> eh
[09:57] <bsn_ua> i can't turn on my cardreader on my toshiba laptop
[09:57] <Bonez> bsn_ua, did you try toshutils ?
[09:57] <spazzz_> Bonez: Ahh I've had that as well and never could fix it.  I'm trying to access files from my main machine from my Toshiba Lappy
[09:57] <bhundven> hello. I've been running ubuntu for a little while, but debian much longer before that. I've gone off and installed xgl & compiz, but the problem I'm having is part of my own bad habbit. I sometimes hit backspace while I'm holding down shift. and it kills the x server. what has set this key binding and where can I remove it? It doesn't happen with just x is running.
[09:58] <humblerodent> fixed it....for some reason my speaker WAS in the onboard crap xD....I don't know why :-P
[09:58] <humblerodent> thanks, l8r :)
[09:58] <spazzz_> bsn_ua: Is this an onboard reader?  If so I don't think I can help.  My laptop is actualy pretty old
[09:58] <Bonez> spazzz_, yeah well in my house we have a win2003 server which is a domain controller, plus 2 other windows xp pc's... i'm the only linux nut in the house, and they are all whining about not being able to access my pr0n, so im trying to get samba working. rofl :)
[09:58] <househead> bhundven> search ubuntuforums.org, there is something in the big compiz / xgl threads
[09:58] <bhundven> man. it's anoying...
[09:59] <spazzz_> Bones: Heh... I wish I could help.  Samba support is one of the big reasons I can never switch to Linux fully
[09:59] <househead> Bonez> what is the problem?
[09:59] <Bonez> spazzz_, i have fully switched, they can wait. i'll figure out samba eventually :)
[09:59] <bsn_ua> Bonez il just trying to install them
[09:59] <fuoco> anyone installed ubuntu on powerpc ? the image is bigger than 700 MB and can't be burned...
[09:59] <santa99> someone knows why the first !multimedia links doesn't work
[09:59] <Bonez> househead, whenever others try to access my samba shares, they get prompted for a user/pass, even when they enter it correctly it just denies access
[09:59] <spazzz_> It never fails they claim to have it work seamlessly and flawlessly and I always spend hours tearing my hair up before giving up and going back to Windows in frustratron

[10:10] <ttyfscker> larry123:: as far as i know the xorg.conf settings for the nvidia driver are for all GeForce series cards..   as far as the editing it by hand. thats the only way i know of.. there might be a gui app out there somewhere.. not sure
[10:11] <larry123> ttyfscker: any example of working with dual monitor xorg.conf ? i tried to change things and lost X11
[10:11] <bhundven> man.. now I know why I sayed in console environments. My mouse is on the fritz
[10:11] <zoredache> AlexC there are 2 applications the 'mysql administrator', and the 'mysql query browser'  I am not sure if they are available as ubuntu packages... (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/)
[10:12] <ttyfscker> are you wanting to use twinview or clone?
[10:12] <bhundven> stupid laser mouse anyways
[10:12] <AlexC> zoredache, thanks =)
[10:12] <ttyfscker> well nevermind i didnt mean that
[10:12] <ttyfscker> twinview is clone... do you want twinview or an expanded desktop ?
[10:12] <VR_> is it possible to specify in which workspace a program is to be run? through command line.
[10:13] <larry123> ...and another question - how do i restart X11  in Ubuntu ?
[10:13] <zoredache> AlexC: Just checked the ubuntu packages are (mysql-admin mysql-query-browser)
[10:13] <ttyfscker> larry123::  ctrl alt backspace restarts it
[10:13] <VR_> larry123: ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:13] <bhundven> /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:13] <AlexC> zoredache, thanks - but I needed it for Windows. I use the MySQL Query browser on Ubuntu but forgot what it was called
[10:13] <larry123> thanks
[10:13] <netzmeister> larry123:  Power Off ;-)
[10:14] <bhundven> haha
[10:14] <netzmeister> :-)
[10:14] <zoredache> ah, okdokey then
[10:14] <ttyfscker> bhundven:: how do you know he's not using kdm?
[10:14] <ironfroggy> with a simple sftp command, what happens that gives me "Request for subsystem 'sftp' failed on channel 0"?
[10:14] <ttyfscker> :P
[10:14] <larry123> any ideas regarding brightness ?
[10:14] <bsn_ua> please who have toshiba laptops and want to speak enter join #ubuntu-toshiba and let's talk
[10:14] <RedGhost> anyone here know XML by chance?
[10:14] <ironfroggy> all authentication and such has gone smoothly.
[10:14] <bhundven> no one in their right mind uses kde. I would never get anything done... it's too pretty
[10:14] <bhundven> ;)
[10:14] <netzmeister> ttyfscker:  #(k)ubuntu
[10:14] <netzmeister> wrong channel ;-)
[10:14] <bhundven> I like gnustep better ;)
[10:14] <zoredache> I know a little RedGhost, why?
[10:15] <bhundven> eh
[10:15] <ttyfscker> larry123::  im not familiar with vaios but i have a dell laptop all i have to do with it is hit the Fn + up arrow   and it adjusts brighter.. and Fn + down adjusts it dimmer
[10:15] <RedGhost> zoredache: http://pastebin.ca/94433 if you could help me out id appreciate it
[10:15] <larry123> i have these keys too, but they do not work in Ubuntu
[10:15] <netzmeister> Can i disable Reverse Lookup for any TCP connection to my server??
[10:15] <ttyfscker> netzmeister:: thats not true.. this chan is for all flavors of ubuntu as long as its stable ones..
[10:16] <netzmeister> ttyfscker:  kk
[10:16] <RedGhost> flavours*
[10:16] <RedGhost> o:
[10:16] <netzmeister> hrhr
[10:16] <ttyfscker> ty RedGhost
[10:16] <ttyfscker> haha
[10:16] <netzmeister> any answers to my question?
[10:16] <RedGhost> :D
[10:17] <RedGhost> when i see american english i want to rant
[10:17] <RedGhost> and i have to hold back
[10:17] <zoredache> netzmeister, I don't know of any single location to disable that... usually you have to do it app by app
[10:18] <bhundven> netzmeister: like for ping it would be: ping -n  192.168.42.7
[10:18] <netzmeister> RedGhost:  Thats not american english. Thats Google-Translator German->English ;-)
[10:18] <RedGhost> hehe :P
[10:18] <netzmeister> ;-)
[10:18] <bhundven> or tcpdump would also be -n: tcpdump -n
[10:18] <netzmeister> bhundven:  okay i try
[10:19] <stiv2k> is there any way to make ubuntu ignore certain keystrokes?
[10:19] <stiv2k> my print-scrn key sometimes gets stuck on this laptop
[10:19] <stiv2k> and out of nowhere 20x "save screenshot" windows come up
[10:19] <stiv2k> and it causes it to lag and freeze up
[10:19] <NiLz> how come the clock on my breezy box ALWAYS gets offsync?
[10:19] <ttyfscker> stiv2k:: i think xkbset will do that
[10:19] <NiLz> i have to sync it manually in gnome daily
[10:19] <NiLz> and the offsync is like 3 mins or smth
[10:19] <stiv2k> ttyfscker: k, can i run it from the console
[10:20] <stiv2k> or does it only run in x
[10:20] <NiLz> maybe a bogus server in some config?
[10:20] <IseeIsee> how can I create a link to a file in another drive ?
[10:20] <ttyfscker> stiv2k:: yes thats how it is ran.  i dont know much about its usage though
[10:20] <spades> stiv2k try using xmodmap to make it like a virtual f15 key that does nothing?
[10:20] <ttyfscker> lol
[10:21] <stiv2k> spades: i could try that
[10:21] <spades> keycode 111 = F19  or something, ymmv, use xev to grab the keycode incase its not 111 on your map
[10:21] <ttyfscker> nevermind spades i thought you was trying to get him to make it where it switched to the next virtual terminal..  too late here
[10:21] <stiv2k> spades: can i run that from the console?
[10:22] <stiv2k> if i run X, i get bombarded by the goddamn save screenshot windows
[10:22] <spades> stiv2k i personally have that key bound to scrot and irun multiple f keys for my multimedia keys, stick it in .Xmodmap and xmodmap -v .Xmodmap it, verbose so you see if it errors
[10:22] <IseeIsee> how can I create a shortcut link to a file in another drive ?
[10:22] <stiv2k> eh
[10:22] <stiv2k> i'll have to boot into ubuntu, spades
[10:22] <stiv2k> i wont be able to remember this
[10:22] <stiv2k> heh
[10:23] <spades> write it down, just 2 lines, keycode 111 = F19 and xmodmap .Xmodmap :P
[10:23] <stiv2k> i dont know if its cause of this problem, or some other problem but ubuntu likes to lockup sometimes
[10:23] <spades> im using this under xfce, so i guess with gnome ymmv
[10:23] <stiv2k> for no reason
[10:23] <bhundven> or you can just remember to read 'man xmodmap
[10:23] <bhundven> '
[10:23] <stiv2k> and i cant even reboot this laptop without killing the power
[10:23] <stiv2k> the power button stops functioning along w/ the keyboard entirely
[10:23] <stiv2k> any known issues?
[10:23] <ironfroggy> is "Request for subsystem 'sftp' failed on channel 0" an indication of a client or server error?
[10:24] <Enverex> If I wanted all users to have read/write access on a windows partition, would the mount options "umask=000,dmask=000,fmask=000" be fine?
[10:24] <fuoco> anyone installed ubuntu on powerpc ? the image is bigger than 700 MB and can't be burned...
[10:25] <netzmeister> Yes baby... "skip-name-resolve" in my.cnf solve the problem.. I love it.. ;-)
[10:25] <zoredache> actually I tried installing ubunto ont he powerpc, I got the iso burned but I had other problems
[10:25] <netzmeister> zoredache:  Thx, app by app is the right way..
[10:26] <bhundven> Enverex: check out 'man mount' when you type / in man it will start searching for what you type in. search for: Mount options for fat
[10:26] <Enverex> bhundven, I've read it, it just doesn't explain them well though
[10:27] <larry123> when i click Fn-F5/Fn-F6 (change brightness) on my VAIO - the system hangs, mouse, keyboard, everything
[10:27] <larry123> Fn-F5/6 does change the brightness after blink, but the system hangs
[10:27] <bhundven> uid=1001,gid=1001
[10:28] <bhundven> to set it to the first user made on ubuntu (on my computer it's bryan)
[10:28] <bhundven> oh
[10:28] <bhundven> 1000 is the first user and group
[10:28] <bhundven> ;)
[10:29] <bhundven> I should change my nick to offByOne
[10:30] <Noia> larry123:  thats quite bad. Though most of my Fn buttons don't work, audio works fine but brightness is reversed..go figure
[10:31] <Bergcube> larry123~  There has been some discussion about Vaios on the mailing list.  I haven't paid attention as I haven't got one.  Perhaps there's something useful there.  At least there will be people you can email.
[10:31] <gleesond> whats the command to reconfigure X? is there some sort of script?
[10:31] <larry123> Bergcube: link to the mailing list ?
[10:31] <peippo> does ubuntu support nfsv4?
[10:31] <larry123> Bergcube: official Ubuntu
[10:31] <larry123> Bergcube: mailing list
[10:31] <larry123> Bergcube:?
[10:32] <bhundven> Enverex: ok. I should have read the question. yea. so setup a group call 'windows' and do gid=windows,umask=0000,dmask=0000,fmask=0000 ... then just add users you want to have access to the windows group.
[10:32] <Bergcube> larry123~  https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users
[10:32] <larry123> Bergcubet: thank you
[10:32] <twa1296> gleesond: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:32] <Bergcube> larry123~  You're welcome.  Took me a few secs as I had to cut'n'paste the link...
[10:35] <bhundven> Enverex: I would also consider the security risks of the mask, so try to minimize the exposure to anyone outside the windows group ;)
[10:35] <gleesond> is there an easy way to change from KDM to GDM?
[10:35] <bhundven> dpkg-reconfigure xdm
[10:35] <Ashex> install gdm
[10:36] <bhundven> after installing it ofcourse ;)
[10:36] <Fuzzy76> Has anyone here tested the server cd install on a pentium 1? My install resets when the kernel is loaded. :(
[10:36] <Ashex> and then /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[10:40] <peippo> is the nfs server in ubuntu dapper version 4?
[10:41] <drumline_> Looking for a program that will take firewall logs of blocked access attempts on ports and then apply firewall rules to deny all ports to a specific IP.  Is there anything like that already made?
[10:42] <drumline_> Besides Portsentry...   Port Sentry sits as a daemon and I'd rather not run another daemon.
[10:42] <croftyboy_31> can anyone help, i want to print pdf but scale/stretch it over 4 A4 pages it a large map everytime i try to print it , it just reduce down to A4 size unreadable
[10:43] <croftyboy_31> I have adobe pdf reader installed as well as default XPDF as well
[10:43] <Bergcube> croftyboy_31~  In other words, you want to rasterbate?
[10:43] <croftyboy_31> what is that?
[10:43] <Warbo> PDFs are vectors
[10:43] <croftyboy_31> yeah its vectors map like
[10:44] <Warbo> croftyboy_31: I suppose the easiest way would be to import it into OpenOffice
[10:44] <Bergcube> croftyboy_31~  Not sure, but maybe this can help: http://holloway.co.nz/book/18/
[10:45] <Warbo> croftyboy_31: But you may have to go through some extra steps, like maybe use Inkscape to keep it as a vector or something,
[10:45] <croftyboy_31> I not got the new version of openoffice that can import pdf , i have tried to export too postscript
[10:45] <Bergcube> croftyboy_31~  Sorry.  Here is a better link: http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/
[10:46] <drumline_> Anyone?   Knowledgable with portsentry?
[10:46] <emil_> Hello
[10:46] <martuxyy_13>  server irc.arrakis.es
[10:46] <martuxyy_13> server irc.arrakis.es
[10:46] <emil_> I've got a problem with totem
[10:46] <emil_> It says: "Cannot contact the soundservers"
[10:46] <emil_> I allready reinstalled, but same problem.
[10:47] <Warbo> Bergcube: Wow, it "rasterises" your images. Surely that is the opposite thing that you should do for making posters?
[10:47] <soletenerete>  /server irc.arrakis.es
[10:47] <soletenerete> uhy
[10:47] <martuxyy_13> server irc.arrakis.es
[10:48] <Bergcube> Warbo~  I guess that depends on size.  On the last Gathering they made one that was more than 1000 sheets of A4 paper.  Looked in fact great.
[10:48] <croftyboy_31> is there a way of convert the pdf into vector image format , that openoffice can import
[10:48] <Warbo> emil_: Does sound work in other stuff?
[10:48] <Warbo> croftyboy_31: I think autotrace converts vectors
[10:48] <emil_> Warbo: I don't have programs with sound
[10:48] <Warbo> !info autotrace
[10:48] <ubotu> autotrace: bitmap to vector graphics converter. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.31.1-11 (dapper), package size 38 kB, installed size 96 kB
[10:49] <Warbo> !sound
[10:49] <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
[10:49] <croftyboy_31> why can i not get xpdf to span the vector picture over a number of pages , it seems like it A2/A3 szie
[10:50] <Warbo> croftyboy_31: I don't think XPDF is very feature-full. Maybe Evince is better?
[10:50] <emil_> Warbo: My sound even doesn't work on other programs, but yesterday it worked
[10:51] <Warbo> emil_: Is this just gstreamer-based (like totem, rhythmbox, etc.) or everything, including XMMS, login sounds, etc.
[10:51] <emil_> everything
[10:51] <croftyboy_31> i think i will give up on linux and go and do it on windows 2000 with pdf , i am sure i have done this more simple on windows
[10:51] <Warbo> croftyboy_31: Good luck
[10:51] <croftyboy_31> thx
[10:51] <croftyboy_31> thx 4 all  your help warbo n others
[10:52] <emil_> Warbo: Yesterday it worked, i installed some codecs, they worked, but now i don't have sound at all
[10:52] <Warbo> emil_: Did you have to set up the sound before, or was it automatic?
[10:52] <emil_> Warbo:  Automatic
[10:52] <Warbo> emil_: OK, try "alsamixer" in a terminal
[10:53] <emil_> ok
[10:54] <emil_> Warbo: Surround is off and Center is off, LFE is off, LINE is off
[10:54] <emil_> How do i turn them on
[10:55] <Warbo> emil_: I think space enebles them. But you're not getting any errors about the hardware not being detected?
[10:55] <samu2> Where can you change the locale for the system?
[10:55] <samu2> The thing that changes what regexps consider \w to match
[10:55] <Warbo> samu2: Maybe "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales"
[10:55] <emil_> Warbo: he detects the hardware
[10:56] <Warbo> emil_: Does the Gnome volume control work? Try double clicking on the volume applet in the panel
[10:56] <emil_> Warbo: I changed some settings, and now Totem wokrs again and plays music well
[10:56] <emil_> Warbo: Thank you very much
[10:56] <Warbo> emil_: (I'm having sound problems myself right now, but that may be because I just pulled apart the cable)
[10:57] <emil_> lol
[10:57] <pawanagrawal> hi
[10:57] <Warbo> hi
[10:57] <pawan> how is ubuntu os
[10:57] <Warbo> pawan: I like it. Easier to set up than Debian
[10:58] <pawan> i have a fat32 file system
[10:58] <pawan> can it be installed
[10:58] <emil_> pawan: Ubuntu is fine, first I had debian, that sucks.
[10:58] <Warbo> You will have o shrink the filesystem
[10:58] <pawan> is it better than xp
[10:58] <Warbo> pawan: That can be done on the install CD
[10:58] <IseeIsee> what is a "Symbolic Link" if you right click on any file there is an option "Make Link"
[10:58] <emil_> pawan: I think it's better than XP
[10:58] <pawan> a freeware
[10:59] <Warbo> pawan: I think it is, since it doesn't restrict you. It might be harder to do some more advanced stuff, but with enough work ANYTHING is possible
[10:59] <Warbo> pawan: Ubuntu is not freeware
[10:59] <pawan> open source
[10:59] <Warbo> pawan: Exactly (well, I would say Free Software)
[10:59] <pawan> so can it be installed on fat32
[11:00] <Warbo> pawan: No, but it can be installed alongside FAT32
[11:00] <pawan> how
[11:00] <Warbo> pawan: And the installer can shrink FAT32 for you
[11:00] <pawan> without destroying the data
[11:00] <Warbo> pawan: Yes
[11:00] <s_spiff> guys whats the best p2p client?
[11:00] <Warbo> pawan: You should probably defrag it first
[11:00] <s_spiff> as in anything like kazaa
[11:00] <s_spiff> ?
[11:00] <Joenin> sup
[11:00] <rsteele> Hi
[11:01] <Mongo2> Hello
[11:01] <Tremitos> Hi
[11:01] <Remorse_> hi
[11:01] <Warbo> s_spiff: gtk-gnutella is really fast
[11:01] <Warbo> s_spiff: mldonkey probably has more stuff available
[11:01] <pawan> then
[11:01] <Bergcube> pawan~  Let me suggest this page:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows
[11:01] <Jude> My mind must be at a blank; what's the command line program for making new users?
[11:01] <Warbo> pawan: Just get an install CD, it is pretty self-explanitory
[11:02] <Warbo> Jude: adduser I think (useradd doesn't set them up nicely)
[11:02] <cobelloy> hi, anyone know why sound would be out while network is active?
[11:02] <s_spiff> Warbo, thanks , will check both out
[11:02] <brutopia> I downloaded kubuntu desktop cd and it booted like livecd to desktop
[11:02] <Jude> Warbo: I tried about every permutation of "make", "add", "user", "usr"... I didn't try that one. -.-
[11:02] <brutopia> can't I install kubuntu without loading it first from cd
[11:02] <cobelloy> the speakers make a kind of clicking sound while the netwotrk is up
[11:03] <cobelloy> but return to normal on reboot if network is disconnected
[11:03] <Warbo> s_spiff: MLDonkey is run as a background process, and you connect to it with many different interfaces. Sancho is my favourite (I think sanchogui.sf.net)
[11:03] <Warbo> brutopia: With the CD you will need the alternate disc to give you a text-based installer. The DVD can apparently do both
[11:04] <s_spiff> Warbo, any of this available on apt/synaptic?

[11:05] <pawan> i want to install
[11:05] <pawan> not to run the live cd
[11:05] <Bergcube> pawan~  Drop by one eveing and I'll help you!  :-D
[11:05] <Warbo> pawan: Then get the alternate CD
[11:05] <pawan> which one
[11:05] <pawan> i got 6.06
[11:06] <Warbo> pawan: WHich type of computer do you have?
[11:06] <pawan> amd seampron
[11:06] <Warbo> pawan: Get the Ubuntu 6.06 386 alternate disc then
[11:06] <pawan> the 64bit
[11:06] <pawan> not the pc edition
[11:07] <Warbo> pawan: You may want the amd64 one for 64bit, but crappy non-Free software only works on 32bit, so it is a bitch to set up on 64bit
[11:07] <pawan> ok
[11:07] <pawan> so i should run the intel
[11:08] <pawan> x86 based setup
[11:08] <drumline_> Run the AMD64
[11:08] <Warbo> pawan: Yes. You may get a performance boost by switching the kernel to a k7 one after you install
[11:08] <pawan> ok
[11:08] <Warbo> pawan: It is up to you
[11:08] <drumline_> if you have a 64bit processor, don't support older stuff.
[11:08] <pawan> but what about my data
[11:09] <drumline_> make another notch on the 64bit download and one less on the 32bit.
[11:09] <Warbo> pawan: The installer lets you shrink FAT32 partitions to make some free space for Ubuntu. If you defrag it then more space will be available
[11:09] <drumline_> eww.. nasty...
[11:09] <drumline_> backup your FAT32 data...
[11:09] <Warbo> Yes, but everyone always has a backup, right? :)
[11:10] <DarkMageZ> no, some of us don't have the money to backup
[11:10] <Warbo> Admittedly, I buy extra space to use as a backup, then fill it with junk :)
[11:10] <DarkMageZ> thats what i do...
[11:11] <DarkMageZ> so i can never afford to backup
[11:11] <bigfoot1> can anybody help? VOIP softphone can't hear what i say into the mic. Except from Skype, VOIP SIP softphones don't hear what i say into my mic. When I call sip:500 ekiga net, which is the echo test, I can hear the lady's vice, but I cannot hear my own voice being played back (being echoed) back to me.  know that my headset is working fine, because the headset works fine in skype. his problem started only a few weeks ago. Before that, ekiga used t
[11:11] <bigfoot1> work fine .  have also tried twinkle.
[11:11] <drumline_> money to backup?   uh..   CD-ROM's can be used as a backup if done periodically.
[11:11] <drumline_> cd's are a dime a piece
[11:11] <drumline_> DVD's are better
[11:12] <pawan> ok
[11:12] <pawan> so i should back up
[11:12] <drumline_> absolutely... especially because FAT32 is nasty.
[11:12] <pawan> i have three os currently installed on my system
[11:12] <twa1296> i want to shrink my ntfs and add the free space to ext3, what's the safest way to go about that?
[11:12] <Warbo> Most of my stuff is just large downloads (LiveCDs, etc.), the only thing I need to backup is my own stuff like pictures and documents I have made, which I cannot download

[11:13] <ikon> hi there guys!
[11:13] <ikon> anyone knows what is /dev/wacom for?
[11:13] <twa1296> Warbo: should i defrag ntfs first?
[11:13] <XtortioN> Hello. Does any one know how to disable acx? when i blacklist it ubuntu crashes at startup.
[11:14] <Bollinger> ikon /dev/wacom is for graphic tablets
[11:14] <pawan> win xp
[11:14] <pawan> win 98 se
[11:14] <pawan> and w
[11:14] <ikon> Bollinger: thanks
[11:14] <pawan> win server 2003
[11:14] <Warbo> bigfoot1: I think Skype mught use OSS, not ALSA, so that is why there is a difference. Try using a simple sound recorder, and if possible try Audacity (I think that uses OSS) and see if the problem can be narrowed down to this
[11:14] <pawan> now i want to install
[11:14] <pawan> ubunty
[11:14] <pawan> ubuntu
[11:14] <pawan> my file system in fat32
[11:14] <pawan> tell me what to do
[11:14] <Warbo> twa1296: I don't think it is needed, but it is always a good idea
[11:15] <basvg> pawan: there is an excellent install howto on the wiki of ubuntu
[11:15] <Warbo> pawan: You on the LiveCD at the moment?
[11:15] <pawan> ok
[11:15] <andy-> pawan: download ubuntu, burn it to cd, reboot pc with cd in cdrom.
[11:15] <bigfoot1> Warbo:  thanks
[11:15] <pawan> i have the live cd
[11:15] <pawan> with me
[11:15] <Warbo> pawan: Does it boot OK?
[11:15] <XtortioN> Does any one know how to disable acx? when i blacklist it ubuntu crashes at startup.
[11:15] <pawan> yes
[11:15] <pawan>  it boots
[11:15] <bigfoot1> if that's the case, can't the problem be solved by switching Ekiga from alsa to OSS?
[11:15] <Warbo> pawan: Then there is a big icon on the desktop to install it :)
[11:15] <andy-> pawan: double click 'Install' on desktop
[11:16] <pawan> yes
[11:16] <pawan> it clicked it
[11:16] <Warbo> bigfoot1: Maybe. Personally I cannot get my headset microphone to work, but I can get standalone ones going
[11:16] <bigfoot1> what are standalones?
[11:16] <pawan> will i loose my data
[11:16] <glinux212> Well I have problem with my squid, I does'nt block the access control I defined. Any Help?
[11:16] <Warbo> bigfoot1: As in, sits by itself in a little stand
[11:17] <bigfoot1> ah
[11:17] <Warbo> pawan: No, but always make a backup just in case
[11:17] <pawan> ok
[11:17] <m_0_r_0_n> Hi, I would like to install the application audacity, which I ve configured and compiled by ./configure && make. Do I get any problems when I will install it /usr/local ?
[11:17] <pawan> can broadband be accessed using ubuntu
[11:17] <Warbo> !info audacity
[11:17] <ubotu> audacity: A fast, cross-platform audio editor. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.2.4b-2ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 1842 kB, installed size 5460 kB
[11:17] <Warbo> pawan: Do you have a USB modem or an ethernet router?
[11:17] <pawan> ethernet modem
[11:18] <pawan> adsl
[11:18] <Warbo> pawan: Then you will be fine
[11:18] <m_0_r_0_n> Warbo, No I dont want audacity from the repository!!!!!!
[11:18] <pawan> what is the procedure
[11:18] <Warbo> m_0_r_0_n: OK, calm down :)
[11:18] <XtortioN> !info Does any one know how to disable acx? when i blacklist it ubuntu crashes at startup.
[11:18] <bigfoot1> oh, warbo. i can't change from ALSA to oss in ekiga
[11:18] <ubotu> Package Does does not exist in dapper
[11:18] <cappiz> javiolo did you compile from svn, or do you use the following fluxbox from ubuntu respetoriy?
[11:18] <Warbo> pawan: You go in System>Administration>Networking and set up your ethernet connection. Usually set it to DHCP (so the router gives you an IP address)
[11:19] <XtortioN> that stupid bot can answer my qustion lol
[11:19] <XtortioN> can't
[11:19] <pawan> ok
[11:19] <XtortioN> **
[11:19] <andy-> pawan: is this your first attempt at linux?
[11:19] <Warbo> m_0_r_0_n: Installing stuff to /usr/local is usually fine. Make sure you use checkinstall though
[11:19] <pawan> yes
[11:19] <pawan> i am afraid
[11:19] <Warbo> XtortioN: !info <packagename> gives info on an Ubuntu package
[11:19] <andy-> pawan:  ubuntu was my first too, if u have at least SOME knowledge in windows, then ubuntu will be a breeze.
[11:19] <glinux212> Well I have problem with my squid, I does'nt block the access control I defined. Any Help?
[11:19] <Madpilot> XtortioN, asking the actual humans in this channel usually gets better results than randomly quizzing the bot...
[11:20] <XtortioN> pawan: it will be hard but you have to be brave :) it will be worth it.
[11:20] <m_0_r_0_n> !info checkinstall
[11:20] <ubotu> checkinstall: installation tracker. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.5.3-3ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 34 kB, installed size 132 kB
[11:20] <pawan> i am software progarmmer
[11:20] <andy-> pawan: just backup any information just in case.
[11:20] <Warbo> pawan: Since you have multiple Windows installed you obviously know a little about partitioning and stuff
[11:20] <pawan> yes
[11:20] <andy-> pawan: then you should be ok, i found ubuntu to be the easiest, install is like 3 minutes, and everything works out of box execpt mp3 support which was just one file i had to install.
[11:20] <Warbo> !checkinstall
[11:20] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall  -  Please: Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page.
[11:21] <XtortioN> Madpilot, Warbo :p im aware of that i just thought i would give it a try LOL since know one knows my question.
[11:21] <Warbo> m_0_r_0_n: Make sure you call the package something like "audacity-custom" or something, as "audacity" may get overwritten in an upgrade
[11:21] <Warbo> XtortioN: Well I don't know what acx is :)
[11:21] <twa1296> Warbo: gparted won't let me modify ntfs
[11:22] <Warbo> twa1296: I was thinking it may give trouble with ext3, but NTFS usually works
[11:22] <XtortioN> Warbo its a module for wireless driver
[11:22] <m_0_r_0_n> Warbo, thanks for you advise
[11:22] <twa1296> hmm
[11:23] <XtortioN> I want to disable the module from loading
[11:23] <Warbo> XtortioN: Well I know what the blacklist is, I now know what the module is, but I have no idea why the error is happening :(
[11:24] <XtortioN> :(
[11:24] <pawan> can we not play mp3 in ubuntu

[11:24] <XtortioN> yes but its a pain in the butt to get it to work
[11:24] <Madpilot> pawan, sure you can - see the URL that Warbo just beat me to posting :)
[11:24] <Warbo> pawan: It's perfectly possible, just not enabled by default
[11:24] <XtortioN> pawn yes but its a pain in the butt to get it to work
[11:25] <pawan> there are restrictions
[11:25] <Warbo> XtortioN: Really? What engine is that for? (Gstreamer, Xine, etc.)
[11:25] <FeestBijtje> I'm opped in /5 channels. I've got the power about 0/887 users.
[11:25] <XtortioN> Xine
[11:25] <XtortioN> then you got to find packages and install them
[11:25] <XtortioN> ;/
[11:26] <Madpilot> FeestBijtje, and this matters in #ubuntu?
[11:26] <Warbo> XtortioN: I thought Xine just worked for AVI, MP3, etc. Although that is probably since Xine has to be installed manually, and I always get the codecs at the same time :)
[11:26] <bigfoot1> how do i change my audio capture settings? where are the multimedia settings ?
[11:26] <FeestBijtje> Madpilot, whats up?
[11:26] <FeestBijtje> WTF?
[11:26] <FeestBijtje> was not mentioned to be in here
[11:26] <pawan> how much time does it take
[11:26] <pawan> to install ubuntu
[11:26] <Warbo> pawan: Maybe half an hour
[11:26] <FeestBijtje> I'm opped in /5 channels. I've got the power about 0/886 users.
[11:26] <Ng> Warbo: installed manually? it's in the repositories
[11:26] <XtortioN> xine gives you the capabilty to use codecs
[11:26] <pawan> some say 3minutes
[11:26] <FeestBijtje> script dousnt work properly :(
[11:27] <Warbo> Ng: I mean it is not installed by default

[11:27] <pawan> not it is not
[11:27] <Warbo> andy-: Erm, blender? ( I REALLY hate Bryce :) )
[11:27] <andy-> blender? hmm sudo apt-get install blender would work?
[11:28] <Madpilot> FeestBijtje, um, you're only in two channels. And again, why does this matter on #ubuntu?
[11:28] <Warbo> andy-: Yes, but Bender's interface is a little weird
[11:28] <Warbo> Blender even
[11:28] <bigfoot1> in System/Preferences/multimedia Systems Selector, when I press the "Test" key under Default Audio Plugin (while ALSA is the Plugin which is selected) I get an error message "- Advanced Linux Sound Architecture: Could not open resource for reading."

[11:31] <lakbu> my laptop has a ralink wireless card ... how can i install it ?
[11:31] <Warbo> lakbu: Check if it is already detected, my RALink was
[11:32] <Warbo> lakbu: System>Administration>Networking
[11:32] <lakbu> how will i know that it was detected?
[11:32] <Warbo> lakbu: It will appear as a device
[11:32] <Warbo> lakbu: In that tool I mentioned
[11:32] <ringard> i'm trying to install server edition 6.06 and the installer goes to a blue screen and hangs. any ideas?
[11:33] <lakbu> yes..  it's there .. but when i activate it ... my system hang?
[11:33] <Warbo> lakbu: Dammit, it screws my system too :) (well, it works fine, just hangs when I reboot)
[11:33] <Chills> nyone knows a good snmp range scanner?

[11:42] <jcanalejo> hola
[11:42] <jcanalejo> fgkfgkbknkgh,gfhoflhg.
[11:42] <Warbo> user-land: I think it it bluez-passwd or something. Try using "ls /usr/bin/*blue*" to see the bluetooth commands
[11:42] <jcanalejo> .n .b,m.hn,.n.n.hkmhfhhf
[11:43] <Warbo> user-land: I must say that KDE's handling of bluetooth is far better than GNOME's
[11:43] <user-land> thanks, Warbo, so Ubuntu has no GUI interface for bluetooth configuration ?
[11:43] <airzer0> sry my key stuck
[11:43] <Warbo> user-land: Install gnome-bluetooth
[11:43] <fatlip> whats the best/easiest ftpd for ubuntu?
[11:44] <Warbo> bluez-pin I think now I recall...
[11:44] <Ng> fatlip: does it have to be an ftpd? ssh includes something called sftp which is much more secure and very easy to set up if  you just want regular user access and not things like anonymous access
[11:44] <Bergcube> fatlip~  I am very satisfied with vsftpd.  And it took all of 5 minutes to configure as I wanted it.
[11:44] <user-land> i understand. Warbo, Kubuntu 6.06 once installed did not boot on my system. If i install kubuntu-desktop now, is there a risk that i will have to reinstall Ubuntu ?
[11:45] <fatlip> yeah it doesnt matter what kind.. just setting it up for a quick fxp
[11:45] <thomas> hi, generating a key using gpg took a much of time, because /dev/random produces very low random data even moving the mouse or typing on the keyboard
[11:46] <Warbo> user-land: I wouldn't think so, but kubuntu-desktop installs A LOT of stuff. I make do with Konqueror to do my OBEX file transfers, and I think I set up the PIN with bluez-pin (I think you have to put it in the config file somewhere in /etc)
[11:46] <thomas> but on a pure debian system it produces much more random

[11:49] <adam_> how can i exicuted terminal commands on ubuntu startup?
[11:49] <Warbo> airzer0: That's not really funny
[11:49] <Ng> adam_: as your user or as root?
[11:49] <Bergcube> fatlip~  Erm.  You got me there.  Not stored in brain.  Let me check and reply in 3-4 minutes.

[11:50] <airzer0> i have diabeatis
[11:50] <Ng> Warbo: in dapper we have /etc/rc.local for random root commands at startup, way easier than dumping a script in /etc/init.d and symlinking it to rc2.d

[11:50] <burzum> hi
[11:50] <airzer0> my bad

[11:50] <s_spif> Warbo, this sancho gui, how did you install it? there is not .deb [ sorry noob here ] 
[11:50] <airzer0> what is the topic
[11:51] <Ng> airzer0: ubuntu support
[11:51] <airzer0> sry
[11:51] <Ng> I highly doubt that
[11:51] <airzer0> drank to much
[11:51] <Warbo> Ng: I thought I looked for an rc.local a while ago. What way does Fedora use, cos I tried that first
[11:51] <Warbo> s_spif: I got an RPM and used alien
[11:51] <Warbo> !alien
[11:51] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[11:51] <Konstable> hello.  just installed ubuntu.  I'm trying to start GAIM, it pops up for a short while but then disappears without a trace.
[11:51] <osfameron> anyone using Smart with ubuntu instead of/as well as  apt-get ?
[11:51] <s_spif> !alien

[11:52] <s_spif> lol
[11:52] <adam_> Warbo: were do i type the command?
[11:52] <Ng> Konstable: try running "gaim" from a terminal, see if it produces an error
[11:52] <s_spif> Warbo, no problems with it na?
[11:52] <airzer0> i just installed windows but know i want ubuntu
[11:52] <Warbo> osfameron: I thought it was an attempt to unify package managers, but when I found out that it isn't I lost interest
[11:52] <Bergcube> fatlip~  It is in /etc/vsftpd.conf  You might get a little more help reading http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-91887.html
[11:52] <fatlip> thanks :)
[11:53] <osfameron> Warbo: I'm using right now as I'm checking out SLED 10 as an alternative to Dapper :-)
[11:53] <Bergcube> fatlip~  ou're welcome.
[11:53] <osfameron> and SUSE's package management is teh sux
[11:53] <osfameron> so everyone uses smart :D
[11:53] <snoops> when I boot ubuntu I find that gnome-panel often dies and refuses to load properly - I have to keep killing services and eventually it does.. not fun :(
[11:53] <Warbo> s_spif: Sancho is not really a system-critical application, so alien should be OK, it works for me (but the files are in /opt, which made me create a little script to launch it
[11:53] <user-land> kubuntu-desktop is now installing some 400MB of additional software.
[11:53] <Awesome-o2000> how do I change the order ALSA sets my cards up in?
[11:53] <Konstable> Ng: It says Gaim segfaulted.  Not much other detail.
[11:54] <s_spif> Warbo, apart from this sacho..i downloaded the browser Flock [ in its beta for linux ] , i got a .tar.gz. Extracted it to the desktop in a files Flock, now how do i install the damn thing?
[11:54] <Warbo> adam_: The tab on the right, add a new entry
[11:54] <Warbo> !compile
[11:54] <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!)
[11:54] <Ng> Konstable: has it been working before or is this the first time you've started it?
[11:55] <Konstable> Ng: this is the first time I've started Ubuntu itself. So yeah, first time for Gaim also.
[11:55] <adam_> warbo, do the commands get exicuted in order like 1 after the other?
[11:55] <user-land> Warbo, are you getting something in return for your excellent support work here ?
[11:55] <eugman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18509 What do I need to install?
[11:55] <Warbo> adam_: I'm not sure. I think there used to be an order, but it has somehow disappeared
[11:55] <Ng> Konstable: hmm, that's not such a good sign. I guess the first thing to do would be to fire up synaptic, search for the gaim package and tell it to reinstall it. if it still fails, remove the .gaim directory in your home directory, if that still doesn't work you might want to consider running memtest86+ for a few hours
[11:56] <eugman> Warbo gets a tingly feeling inside.
[11:56] <Warbo> user-land: I am getting a warm, happy glow
[11:56] <s_spif> user-land, lol, noone gets anything. Everything is done free of cost.
[11:56] <IseeIsee> I have 3 PC A,B,C  PC B has 2 Ethernet cards & has Ubuntu on it, PC B receives internet from A, I want to make C receive internet from B, how can I do that. When I run windows on PC B, I made a "Bridge" between the 2 Ethernet cards and was able to forward internet to C
[11:56] <user-land> Warbo, isn't that frustrating ?
[11:56] <twa1296> yes, Warbo, thank you, you've helped me out many times :)
[11:56] <airzer0> ubuntuordie
[11:56] <adam_> Warbo, coz if they dont its gonna f*** my compuetr
[11:56] <Bergcube> Warbo~  That's good if you're in a woman,but bad if you're in the jungle.  (Stolen from "Good morning VietNam"...)
[11:56] <eugman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18509
[11:56] <Warbo> user-land: Getting a happy glow? Well, it can attract moths at night...
[11:57] <user-land> :-)
[11:57] <Ng> adam_: you could always put the commands in the right order in a script and call that script from the sessions configuration
[11:57] <Konstable> Ng: Thanks I'll try that
[11:57] <adam_> Warbo, im new 2 ubuntu so i dont know how 2 do that
[11:57] <user-land> if i disappear for hours now my conversion to KDE did not work out :-)
[11:57] <Warbo> IseeIsee: Get firestarter and set up IP masquerading I think
[11:58] <s_spiff> hey anyone uses ipmsg for talking to ppl on lan?
[11:58] <s_spiff> !ipmsg
[11:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about ipmsg - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:58] <Warbo> IseeIsee: If the other machines are Windows use Samba on top
[11:58] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: you can bridge with bridge utils - or just vanilla route, or nat - world of opporunity
[11:58] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: where are the bridge util ?
[11:58] <Warbo> user-land: I use GNOME, but I use Konqueror for Bluetooth
[11:59] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: bridge-utils
[12:00] <s_spiff> Warbo, i installed mldonkey, but i didnt select the 'start at startup' option..now how do i get it running and set its options?
[12:00] <adam_> i have a wireless pci adapter but i cant install it with out writing heaps of shit in the terminal and it works 4 5min and then my computer freeze
[12:00] <snoops> how do I remove folders in gconf-editor?
[12:00] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: and from where will I access this package ?
[12:00] <user-land> Why do you use gnome, Warbo ?
[12:00] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: think you can figure that one out on your own ;)
[12:01] <Warbo> s_spiff: make a folder somewhere and run "mlnet". I use /var/lib/mldonkey and use "sudo mlnet" (don't worry, it is not run as root, it becomes the user "mldonkey")
[12:01] <airzer0> hi i found it
[12:01] <s_spiff> ok
[12:01] <airzer0> thks
[12:01] <Warbo> user-land: I like the look of it. Not so much the new shiny themes, so I reverted to a matte XFCE theme and E16 as the window manager
[12:01] <Ng> Bergcube: check you have the best graphics card drivers installed and that DMA is enabled on your hard disk. other than that, more RAM can often help make a machine faster
[12:01] <eugman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18509
[12:01] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: please man, I'm not very happy with the way Ubuntu places things, you always have to do a google search to find out where are the things :P
[12:02] <Ng> eugman: you need to install libgtk2.0-dev
[12:02] <eugman> Ah
[12:02] <user-land> I see, Warbo. For me who constantly has to struggle to get functionality from my PC, i am missing KDE.
[12:02] <airzer0> do you ubuntu
[12:02] <adam_> can sombody help me install my wireless pci adapter
[12:02] <Ng> eugman: and libgnomevfs2-dev
[12:02] <eugman> Oh yeah I need devs for compiling.
[12:02] <Warbo> user-land: Whatever floats your boat
[12:02] <eugman> thanks
[12:02] <user-land> see you :-)
[12:02] <airzer0> hi cool
[12:03] <Bergcube> Ng~  Now THAT was a case of really flopped attempt at humor on my part.  My computer is very fast and works almost perfect.  STILL I wish for faster everything.  More speed more fun.  Just look at what's happened the last 10 years and project that 10 years forward...  Speed good.  :-D
[12:03] <Warbo> Bergcube: How many CELL blades are you getting for christmas? :)
[12:03] <TheCool> I was wondering if someone could give me a hand with ndiswrapper. I've installed the driver for my wireless card, but when I modprobe ndiswrapper, it attaches to my usbcore. The wireless card is a minipci.
[12:03] <Ng> Bergcube: idle comments to #ubuntu-offtopic then please ;)
[12:03] <Bergcube> Warbo~  Knowing my family:  None.  :-|
[12:03] <airzer0> hi andy
[12:03] <babo> http://pastebin.ca/94559 ... everytime it finds an $EMAIL in $PREVIOUS, and everytime it adds the email to previous ... ?
[12:04] <babo> how is that possible ... ?
[12:04] <stefg> !wireless > adam_
[12:04] <void^> TheCool: doesn't matter
[12:04] <airzer0> howdy doody
[12:04] <TheCool> void^: Why not, cause I'm not getting a wlan0.
[12:05] <sspy> Is anybody of ubuntu admins here ???
[12:05] <void^> TheCool: perhaps you haven't installed the correct windows driver
[12:05] <airzer0> www.windows.com
[12:05] <Madpilot> sspy, admins of which part of the project?
[12:05] <TheCool> void^: Yep I have, I've had four distros on this laptop and have used the same driver. So far only Ubuntu has had problems.
[12:06] <TheCool> ndiswrapper -l says that everything is happy.
[12:06] <void^> TheCool: perhaps another (broken) driver is active for your card
  I ordered Ubuntu free CD's and i have a qustion. Is it absolytely free ?
[12:06] <Ng> airzer0: seriously, be sensible or be quiet
[12:06] <gnomefreak> sspy: yes
[12:06] <airzer0> sry
[12:06] <Madpilot> sspy, yes, it's absolutely free
[12:06] <sspy> thx
[12:07] <airzer0> ;{
[12:07] <garface> it takes a few weeks tho:)
[12:07] <user-land> thank you, Warbo, KDE is working here too now :-)
[12:07] <eugman> config.status: error: cannot find input file: graphics/Makefile.in
[12:08] <user-land> i am just astonished that i still have the same gnome panel ...
[12:08] <TheCool> void^: Well, Ubuntu loads like 30 modules (according to lsmod)
[12:08] <sspy> one more question: CD's will be delivered to my house or i must go to the post office ?
[12:08] <garface> they go to your house
[12:09] <sspy> it's cool. thx
[12:09] <garface> or what ever adress you set in
[12:09] <Madpilot> sspy, that depends on your postal service
[12:10] <garface> sspy, took a while for me

[12:10] <snoops> how do I remove folders in gconf-editor? Anyone know?
[12:11] <garface> mt. but it was worth it :)
[12:11] <gnomefreak> snoops: rm
[12:11] <Sonderblade> is ubuntu etch ready to be used yet?
[12:11] <Sonderblade> tested
[12:11] <gnomefreak> Sonderblade: not really
[12:12] <Sonderblade> does it compile?
[12:12] <gnomefreak> Sonderblade: its not ready for public testing
[12:12] <snoops> gnomefreak err gconf-editor has no terminal to enter rm

[12:12] <tzfardea> hey, i have some problem, im using ubuntu 6.06 and sometimes the mouse pointer is just moving to a randomaly point every second so i cant control it
[12:13] <Bergcube> tzfardea~  Is it an optical mouse, or one with a all underneath?
[12:13] <Bergcube> +b
[12:13] <s_spiff> anyone knows any ip messenger for linux? i tried xipmsg, but its nothing like the windows version
[12:14] <Ng> snoops: I think he means you start a terminal from the ubuntu menus and remove the folder in question from ~/.gconf
[12:15] <tzfardea> Bergcube, optical
[12:15] <gnomefreak> yep ;)
[12:15] <gnomefreak> sorry still sleeping here
[12:15] <Dimitris> I installed ubuntu and during installation i chose not to mount the DellUtility partition that comes with my laptop but it still shows in My Computer.  Also there is a double entry for /  partition(one as Filesystem and one as Root Volume).  I think its a known bug.
[12:15] <TheCool> Gad, I'll just go back to gentoo, it actually works.
[12:16] <Bergcube> tzfardea~  I have experienced that if the surface the mouse is on is too blank or glary my mouse does the same.  Also if I happen to lift the mouse slightly instead of keeping it down.
[12:16] <Bizzeh> hey, where can i find out what version of the RT2500 drivers ubuntu (amd64) use?
[12:17] <airzer0> hi how are you today
[12:17] <munzir> Hi, http://www.ubuntu.com/news/opera9 says add remove programs should contain opera but it's not! What am I missing?
[12:17] <tzfardea> Bergcube, ok thanks

[12:18] <gnomefreak> munzir: it doesnt unles syou add the opera repo but itws just as easy as going to opera.com downloading it than running sudo dpkg -i opera<tab>
[12:18] <Pupeno> Hello.
[12:18] <Pupeno> If I build and install linux 2.6.17 I'll need to rebuild fglrx and restricted modules, right ?

[12:19] <pawan> yahoo booter
[12:19] <airzer0> do you drink yeager?
[12:19] <mp3guy> hi, my friend needs some help with his ubuntu installation, is there anyway I can do a remote desktop kinda thing and control his ubuntu from mine? Is there a HOWTO anywhere?
[12:19] <frogzoo> IseeIsee:  don't use google to search - use synaptic or 'apt-cache search'
[12:20] <ranDomized> mp3guy, tel him to lauch vino and use vncviewer
[12:20] <munzir> mp3guy: may be you need vnc
[12:20] <pawan> is ubuntu a good os
[12:20] <mp3guy> ranDomized, is it as easy as that?
[12:20] <Pupeno> mp3guy: yes, there's vnc but I don't know what is the most friendly vnc client/server in gnome, you are running gnome, right ?
[12:20] <ranDomized> mp3guy, well you my encounter some firewall ...
[12:20] <airzer0> no pawn
[12:20] <pawan> why
[12:21] <ranDomized> mp3guy, vnc server in gnome is called vino
[12:21] <Bizzeh> pawan: how long is a piece of string?
[12:21] <airzer0> windows is better
[12:21] <pawan> so we should not shift to ubuntu
[12:21] <Gorlist> Morning
[12:21] <airzer0> check this out  www.ubuntu.org
[12:21] <Gorlist> Does Ubuntu come with a local host for websites?
[12:21] <Bergcube> pawan~  I am an IT consultant with more than 20 years experience.  I would say that Ubuntu is without doubt the best desktop OS I've ever used.
[12:22] <Bizzeh> i would have to partly agree with Bergcube
[12:22] <airzer0> ubutuordie
[12:22] <Bizzeh> Ubuntu is without doubt the best LINUX BASED desktop OS
[12:22] <Ng> !ops
[12:22] <pawan> ok
[12:22] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[12:22] <munzir> ranDomized: I just tried this vino and it's saying "Users can view your desktop using this command: vncviewer localhost:0"
[12:22] <airzer0> i concur
[12:22] <gnomefreak> Ng: ?
[12:22] <Pupeno> Gorlist: if you mean a web server that you can run on your computer, there are various. The most popular being apache. Ubuntu doesn't install it by default, but you can install it easily with aptitude or synaptic.
[12:22] <Bizzeh> so anyway
[12:22] <Bizzeh> where can i find out what version of the RT2500 drivers ubuntu (amd64) use?
[12:23] <munzir> ranDomized: shouldn't it report the ip? is it really port 0?
[12:23] <Madpilot> airzer0, drop it, or leave. Last warning.
[12:23] <Ng> gnomefreak: /lastlog airzer0
[12:23] <Bergcube> pawan~  But I guess it must be said that I think all desktop computers suck inherently.  Real computers have their own rooms and personell like me to take care of them.  I never trust a computer I can lift on my own.
[12:23] <Konstable> newbie question: how do I check my ubuntu version?
[12:23] <ranDomized> munzir, it's listening on 127.0.0.1
[12:23] <ranDomized> munzir, default vnc port is 5900
[12:23] <frogzoo> Konstable: lsb_release -a
[12:23] <ranDomized> munzir, you should be able to tell it to listen to remote interface
[12:23] <Ng> ta
[12:24] <Phlosten> anyone know if shipit has an email address?
[12:24] <Konstable> frogzoo: thanks
[12:24] <s_spiff> brb
[12:24] <larry123>  how to add a command to the init sequence before GDM comes up ? thanks
[12:25] <lz1gjd> hi, how do i convert an mp3 ogg file to wma ?
[12:25] <simira> (edgy k1 on laptop) my sd-card didn't autumount when I inserted it; what can I do to mount it? /what kind of device should it appear as?)
[12:25] <FriedCPU> anybody know of a repo that has this: libgl1-mesa 6.5.1-Oubuntu5, Compiz is wanting it, but I only have 6.4.1, cant find it anywhere :/
[12:25] <stefg> !init
[12:25] <ubotu> Boot options: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a bootfloppy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SmartBootManagerHowto
[12:25] <amf> usually /dev/sda
[12:26] <simira> amf: it didn't even show up in /dev, then
[12:26] <munzir> ranDomized: ok I did vino-preferences and enable it and close. now vncviewer localhost:0 says unable to connect to vnc server and netstat shows no port related to vino open
[12:27] <rubikcube> 'lo
[12:27] <ranDomized> munzir, restart vino
[12:27] <frogzoo> is it known yet what the big pieces are going to be in edgy to convince users to upgrade?
[12:27] <gnomefreak> Madpilot: you got a sec?
[12:27] <snoops> are they trying to convince users to upgrade at all frogzoo?
[12:27] <Madpilot> gnomefreak, sure - PM me if you want
[12:27] <gnomefreak> ok ty
[12:28] <munzir> ranDomized: how?
[12:28] <simira> (edgy k1 on laptop) my sd-card didn't autumount when I inserted it; what can I do find it? (It's not in /dev)
[12:28] <frogzoo> snoops: no, wouldn't encourage anyone to upgrade to a beta - I mean for when it's eventually released
[12:28] <rubikcube> any gimp/gtk+ ubuntu maintainer around here for a probably ubuntu specific gimp bug?
[12:28] <ranDomized> munzir,i have just looked, you cant tell it to listen somewhere else but localhost
[12:29] <airzer0> hi how are you
[12:29] <Bizzeh> where can i find out what version of the RT2500 drivers ubuntu (amd64) use?
[12:29] <munzir> ranDomized: ok I want it to listen to localhost only how?
[12:29] <snoops> frogzoo so did I.. I didn't think they were going to try and convince users to upgrade - it's really for the people wanting to try out new stuff.. and I'm hoping xgl/compiz - so more people get to see how amazingly awesome it is
[12:29] <frogzoo> Bizzeh: check /var/log/messages or dpkg -S on the kernel module
[12:29] <ranDomized> munzir, what's the point ?
[12:29] <Corporal_Dirge> Is there any way to see shared windows folders?
[12:30] <Bizzeh> frogzoo: i dont have ubuntu installed ATM
[12:30] <munzir> ranDomized: I don't have a vino binary only vino-preferences and it didn't start
[12:30] <frogzoo> Bizzeh: it's not a crime...
[12:30] <simira> (edgy k1 on laptop) my sd-card didn't autumount when I inserted it; what can I do find it? (It's not in /dev)
[12:30] <Bizzeh> frogzoo: so, how can i find out what it uses, without having it installed
[12:30] <s_spiff> Warbo, i installed mldonkey, but with it i also installed the mldonkey-gui
[12:31] <Dimitris> Corporal_Dirge: Samba
[12:31] <heatxsink> simira:  I get the same problem
[12:31] <s_spiff> now i tried removing the ml-donkey gui , which was removed successfully
[12:31] <Corporal_Dirge> nm, I found it. Thanks though.
[12:31] <s_spiff>  but when i tried removing ml-donkey i got this error : E: mldonkey-server: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[12:31] <heatxsink> simira:  fdisk -l
[12:31] <frogzoo> Bizzeh: -> packages.ubuntu.com ???
[12:31] <s_spiff> Warbo, what to do?
[12:31] <simira> heatxsink: is that supposed to produce something?
[12:31] <PanicFo> if you are logged in via ssh.. how can you retrieve a file?
[12:31] <simira> heatxsink: any suggestiong?
[12:31] <PanicFo> from the remote machine to your own?
[12:32] <s_spiff> Warbo, now its not letting me install/unintall anything via synaptic.. it gives the same error
[12:32] <frogzoo> PanicFo: scp
[12:32] <amf> sd card.....  Mine is /dev/sdb1
[12:32] <ranDomized> munzir, /usr/lib/vino/vino-server

[12:32] <s_spiff> any1 help?
[12:33] <Bizzeh> frogzoo: found it, thanks :)
[12:33] <frogzoo> Bizzeh: cool
[12:33] <amf> wow ur right.  It isn't listed  but that's what mine mounts to
[12:34] <s_spiff> gnomefreak u there?
[12:34] <freevo> i have speed problem with usb2 HD that is connected thru USB2 PCI carD . Can i tweak something to get faster read  speed on it
[12:34] <munzir> ranDomized: thx a lot it worked now but it was not obvious that the binary is on the lib directory and not on the path
[12:35] <s_spiff> can some1 help me with the crazy error!
[12:36] <ukuser> hi I am a new user of linux (ubuntu) and am currently running the latest 6.06 but have a slight problem during startup where the screen resolution is not correct. is there a way to force a certain resolution for the startup process
[12:36] <ranDomized> munzir, i know, dpkg --L vino is your friend
[12:36] <munzir> ranDomized: it's very nice. now I tried it and it allow remote access not just from localhost
[12:37] <ranDomized> munzir, be a bit careful though
[12:37] <freevo> !fixres > ukuser
[12:37] <mp3guy> ranDomized, how on earth do I get vino/vncviewer working?
[12:37] <IseeIsee> I just installed "bridge-utils" from where can I access it now ?
[12:37] <s_spiff> ranDomized, can u help me with mldonkey?
[12:37] <Konstable> completely lost here. in the Synaptic Package Manager it tells me I have one broken pacakge - ubuntu-desktop.  when i mark it for reinstall i get the error:
[12:37] <Konstable> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-arphic-bkai00mp_2.10-6_all.deb: short read in buffer_copy (backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/share/fonts/truetype/arphic/bkai00mp.ttf')
[12:37] <ukuser> thanks freevo
[12:37] <munzir> mp3guy: do /usr/lib/vino/vino-server
[12:38] <ukuser> will look now
[12:38] <ranDomized> mp3guy, install vino on the remote machine and xvncviewer on the client machine
[12:38] <mp3guy> munzir, says its already running
[12:38] <ranDomized> mp3guy, on remoet machine, launch /usr/lib/vino/vino-server
[12:38] <kbrooks> QUESTION :p
[12:38] <ranDomized> on client, run vncviewer ip_of_remote_machine
[12:38] <TheCool> void^: I just wanted to let you know, the problem was the ndiswrapper on the base install is messed up. I downloaded a newer version and built and installed it and everything works fine.
[12:38] <ranDomized> s_spiff, nope
[12:38] <s_spiff> :(
[12:38] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: dpkg -L bridge-utils
[12:39] <ukuser> freevo, my screen resolution is detected correctly and is great in X but during startup my screen switches off cause it can only display a high reolution
[12:39] <kbrooks> how do i enable numlock when the login screen pops up
[12:39] <void^> TheCool: ah. i never use distro-supplied ndiswrapper :] 
[12:39] <frogzoo> !fixres > ukuser
[12:39] <TheCool> void^: I'm not used to using a very binary heavy distro. I'm used to gentoo.
[12:40] <mp3guy> ranDomized, do I need to forward ports?
[12:40] <freevo> ukuser, i am not following what you are tyring to say .
[12:40] <ranDomized> mp3guy, yep, on router on remote machine's side
[12:40] <TheCool> void^: But I have a client that wants to setup 5 workstations and I'm eval'ing easy to use/maintain desktop distros.
[12:40] <ranDomized> mp3guy, tcp 5900
[12:40] <ranDomized> mp3guy, or better, use ssh tunnel
[12:41] <s_spiff> does anyone have experience with mldonkey?
[12:41] <ranDomized> mp3guy,  it'll be crypted, auth'ed and you wont hav a vnc server listening in the wild
[12:41] <maatttt> hey people!
[12:41] <ranDomized> plop maatttt
[12:41] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: can I have a pastebin here, I wanna show you something
[12:41] <Boglizk> Hiya
[12:42] <Bergcube> freevo~  I have seen something of the same as ukuser, even if t wasn't a problem for me.  I set the resolution in X lower than it defaulted to.  After that the login screen kept on using the high resolution.  So they can have one each.
[12:42] <maatttt> what's a neat way to send an email via a shell script ?
[12:42] <Led_Zeppelin> how do I do hardware discovery in ubuntu?
[12:42] <Led_Zeppelin> also, how do I configure X11?
[12:42] <ranDomized> maatttt, echo plop | mail -s subject toto@plop.fr
[12:42] <maatttt> thank mate
[12:42] <Bergcube> freevo~  ah, he's left...
[12:43] <ranDomized> maatttt, given you get a properly configured mta on your machine
[12:43] <Led_Zeppelin> can someone please help me configure X11 in Ubuntu?
[12:43] <fortran01> Led_Zeppelin: you can configure using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:43] <fortran01> if you are using the xorg server
[12:43] <maatttt> yeah yeah, exim / mailman.  I just want a weekly message to a list.
[12:43] <Led_Zeppelin> fortran01: ok, first I need something to redetect my hardward for my laptop.
[12:43] <IseeIsee> pastebin please ?
[12:44] <brotakul> i'm new in ubuntu/linux and i fave a problem. i can't make all the harware sensors working with gdesklets for exemple and i mean the temperature and fan speed sensors. what am i doing wrong?
[12:44] <fortran01> Led_Zeppelin: that's good for detecting hardware and reconfiguring resolution
[12:44] <Led_Zeppelin> fortran01: is there dselect in ubuntu ?
[12:44] <fortran01> Led_Zeppelin: no idea
[12:44] <Led_Zeppelin> fortran01: is there a kudzu for it?
[12:44] <Konstable> what do I do if the ubuntu-desktop package is broken, and when trying to reinstall it i get an error...
[12:45] <Rambo3> Konstable, broken how you could try purge it and install it
[12:45] <fortran01> Led_Zeppelin: i think there's no kudzu
[12:46] <Konstable> Rambo3: I'm just completely new to Ubuntu, and pretty much linux in general.. How do I purge it?
[12:47] <adam_> is there a program that i could download that can exicute terminal comands when ubuntu starts up?
[12:47] <snoops> gconf-editor - is it possible to remove folders from within it? eg apps/panel/applets/applet0 ?
[12:47] <ukuser> hi i have a screen resolution problem can any one help i have done everything at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:47] <stefg> adam_: what exactly are you trying to do?
[12:48] <Bergcube> ukuser~  Is it a flatscreen?
[12:48] <IseeIsee> while installing bridge-utils I get the following, please have a look
[12:48] <IseeIsee> http://pastebin.4programmers.net/351
[12:48] <ukuser> bergcube yes attached to a dell sx270, its fine in X but not after GRUB during boot
[12:48] <fortran01> Led_Zeppelin: but im not really sure about the kudzu
[12:48] <Rambo3> Konstable, its apt-get remove with purge flag , that will completly unstall stufff  . --purge  and like this: sudo  apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-desktop && apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:49] <Konstable> Rambo3: Thanks, I'll try that
[12:49] <Rambo3> your configs will be gone
[12:49] <adam_> stefg, to use my wireless network card i need 2 execute a few commands b4 it will work propley but i hate doing it every time i start up ubuntu
[12:49] <Bergcube> ukuser~   I have seen something of the same as you, even if t wasn't a problem for me.  I set the resolution in X lower than it defaulted to.  After that the login screen kept on using the high resolution.  So perhaps the login screen is in fact in a resolution too HIGH for your screen.......
[12:49] <IseeIsee> someone see my problem please :)
[12:49] <scheuri> there is a tool, that helps me installing stuff like codecs and fonts...what was it called again?
[12:50] <scheuri> easyubuntu?
[12:50] <No1Viking> !fglrx
[12:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:50] <Bergcube> scheuri~  EasyUbuntu
[12:50] <ukuser> bergcube as soon as X starts all is great its just booting up the screen cannot display the resolution
[12:50] <scheuri> Bergcube: is it in the repos? or where do I get it?
[12:50] <stefg> adam_: so you want to run a script. this is the most essential thing in a linux system, so you dont need to download something to make it work.
[12:51] <Bergcube> scheuri~  http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[12:51] <scheuri> Bergcube: thousand thanks
[12:51] <adam_> stefg, i am new 2 ubuntu and i dont know how 2 do that, perhaps u could tell me
[12:51] <larry123> i figured out how to change brightness on VGN-S460 and it is tricky, where i can publish the trick ? any wikipedia ?
[12:51] <Bergcube> ukuser~  Hang on a minute.....
[12:51] <stefg> adam_:  let me look for some literature for you to read, hold on
[12:51] <wildman> IseeIsee, I don't see the problem. You just do as told
[12:51] <ukuser> bergcube ok - thanks
[12:51] <Rambo3> larry123, use forums and howto section
[12:51] <IseeIsee> someone see my post above, I don't think its a big problem, some of you should know the solution to it
[12:52] <wildman> IseeIsee, the only strange thing is that java docs are needed for that package?
[12:52] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: what happens when you do 'sudo apt-get update' ?
[12:52] <IseeIsee> wildman: if I press Enter the same error appears and if I press "No" the bridge-utils is not correctly installed
[12:52] <wildman> IseeIsee, maybe you left that java doc pkg 'bad' configured somehow from one of your previous installs, that's all
[12:52] <wildman> No aborts, as the info says
[12:52] <cataract> Can anyone here recommend me a 802.11g (capable of WPA2) PCMCIA card that works with current (K)Ubuntu releases?
[12:52] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: methinks you need to enable automatic updates to stop this kind of shenanigans
[12:53] <wildman> IseeIsee, the same error appears because you don't do as told?
[12:53] <Ng> cataract: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[12:53] <Konstable> Rambo3: Didn't work. Errors during unpack in second part.
[12:53] <stefg> adam_: http://rute.2038bug.com/node10.html.gz
[12:53] <RedGhost> how do you login with root in GNOME, like being root in the gnome DE
[12:53] <IseeIsee> widlman: yes when I was installing JDK the same error appeared at that time
[12:53] <cataract> Ng. Thanks dude!
[12:53] <Awesome-o2000> everything works well.
[12:53] <wildman> IseeIsee, that is: download those zip files and put them in /tmp owned by root...
[12:53] <Ng> !root > RedGhost
[12:53] <cataract> Ng: Thanks dude!
[12:54] <wildman> IseeIsee, I could install jdk here w/o pbs at all (dapper x86_64)
[12:54] <RedGhost> not sudo su
[12:54] <wildman> IseeIsee, Sun's JDK 1.5
[12:54] <RedGhost> but root in gnome enviroment
[12:54] <Bergcube> ukuser~  In /boot/grub/menu.lst my current boot invocation is /vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-686 root=/dev/hda2 ro quiet splash vga=0x323   The "vga=0x323" sets the text-mode terminal resolution.  Perhaps you should read up on that.  And DO NOT mess with this file unless you feel you know what you're doing.
[12:54] <noiesmo> hey all everytime I reboot my laptop it wants to preform maintenance. I give root password and drops to shell but then if I try and run fsck it warns about damage whats the go or do i run another command??
[12:54] <wildman> IseeIsee, check the advice of the other users above regarding apt-get update and enabling automatic updates plz
[12:54] <frogzoo> wildman: IseeIsee with 128 updates to run simultaneously, it's not that surprising it's having difficulties
[12:54] <adam_> stefg, thanx mate ur a gun
[12:54] <wildman> IseeIsee, good luck
[12:54] <Ng> RedGhost: to do that you would have to log in as root, and to do that you'd need to enable the root account. to do that you'd need to read the page I just had ubotu message you
[12:55] <RedGhost> alright ;D
[12:55] <wildman> frogzoo, why java doc pkgs are not pulled from the same sources as the jdk then?
[12:55] <munzir> gnomefreak: I just found it won't install on my amd64! what a pity that I need to install a chroot system to have it working
[12:55] <stefg> adam_: and dont foregt to read the thing about !init to put everything in the proper place
[12:55] <wildman> frogzoo, why is he being asked to download it from Sun? can't jdk doc be distributed alongside the jdk?
[12:55] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: I did update and I get the following: There is some problem at the end
[12:55] <tristan_> Do you know any software that can record as a movie what occurs on the screen?
[12:55] <IseeIsee> http://pastebin.4programmers.net/352

[12:56] <Rambo3> Konstable, more info about error

[12:58] <IseeIsee> yeah I fixed that, now its not saying I have

[01:00] <darth_gimp> I was asked if Ubuntu could be used to run a Video Store. Any idea of any software for that application, or how to find it?
[01:00] <Rambo3> Konstable, weard sudo dpkg --install --force /var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-arphic-bkai00mp_2.10-6_all.deb . and thats the last idea i got you ll have to ask someone else couse i dont know more
[01:00] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: ok, so remove the package
[01:00] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: which package ?
[01:00] <Ng> Konstable: if what Rambo3 just suggested doesn't work, delete that ttf-arphic .deb file and run the apt-get command again
[01:01] <dsas> tristan_: or there's byanz. Or if you know the right pipeline you can do it direct from gstreamer
[01:01] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: the java docs package - to stop apt complaining
[01:02] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: but I never installed the docs package
[01:02] <random_h> dsas, where do you find byanz ?
[01:03] <Konstable> Ng: Still the same
[01:03] <larry123> utility to bind key combinations on laptop , like Fn-F5 ?
[01:03] <dsas> random_h: it's in universe
[01:03] <random_h> dsas, ok thx
[01:03] <darth_gimp> I was asked if Ubuntu could be used to run a Video Store. Any idea of any software for that application, or how to find it?
[01:03] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: I just have them as a zip file in a separate drive
[01:03] <Konstable> Rambo3: Actually I think a problem with your syntax, I got dpkg: unknown force/refuse option `/var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-arphic-bkai00mp_2.10-6_all.deb
[01:04] <kbrooks> darth_gimp: What is a video store?
[01:04] <darth_gimp> Where people come to rent DVD movies or Games
[01:05] <frogzoo> darth_gimp: IseeIsee 'sudo dpkg --purge sun-java5-doc'
[01:05] <frogzoo> soz darth_gimp
[01:05] <kbrooks> darth_gimp: and thhey do this... "online"?
[01:05] <brotakul> i'm new in ubuntu/linux and i fave a problem. i can't make all the harware sensors working with gdesklets for exemple and i mean the temperature and fan speed sensors. what am i doing wrong?
[01:05] <darth_gimp> in a store setting.. physical place...
[01:05] <darth_gimp> Like Blockbuster Video
[01:06] <frogzoo> brotakul: nothing dude - sensors are broken atm - temp is the only sensor that works for me
[01:06] <brotakul> ok. thanks.
[01:06] <frogzoo> darth_gimp: that's fairly specialised s/w - doubt you'll find anything open source
[01:06] <darth_gimp> ok.
[01:07] <frogzoo> darth_gimp: but with LAMP, anything's possible
[01:07] <darth_gimp> There are windows/dos based ones.. but this owner is interested in Ubuntu
[01:07] <darth_gimp> LAMP?
[01:07] <simira> ok, I try again...
[01:07] <frogzoo> !lamp
[01:07] <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
[01:07] <simira> (edgy k1 on laptop) my sd-card didn't autumount when I inserted it; what can I do find it? (It's not in /dev)
[01:07] <noiesmo> darth_gimp, you could use online store with lamp (apache mysql php) and run it local network only thered still be some work in adjusting a free commerce php app
[01:07] <sidkortu> someone can tell me how can i install monodevelop?
[01:07] <IseeIsee> frogzoo: what is the command you mentioned gonna do ?
[01:07] <darth_gimp> hmm
[01:07] <dsas> darth_gimp: You could maybe run an existing video store application through wine
[01:08] <frogzoo> IseeIsee: man dpkg
[01:08] <stefg> simira: edgy is in #ubuntu+1
[01:08] <darth_gimp> I forgot about wine.. how stable is it?
[01:08] <frogzoo> gtg
[01:08] <IseeIsee> it says its not installed cannot remove
[01:08] <dsas> sidkortu: What do you need to know?
[01:08] <sidkortu> what packages shoul i dwnload
[01:08] <dsas> darth_gimp: it varies depending on the application you're trying to run.
[01:08] <dsas> sidkortu: the "monodevelop" package.
[01:08] <darth_gimp> dsas, can wine run Photoshop?
[01:09] <dsas> sidkortu: if you need unit testing or additional language support then install the others
[01:09] <darth_gimp> if not, there's always dual boot...
[01:09] <sidkortu> dsas: ok, thnx
[01:09] <dsas> sidkortu: installing monodoc may be useful too
[01:09] <sidkortu> ok
[01:09] <darth_gimp> I'll see what I can find on Synaptic about a video rental program.
[01:09] <darth_gimp> and Wine
[01:09] <darth_gimp> Thanks guys
[01:10] <dsas> darth_gimp: I'm not sure - I've never used wine, I think they list applications that work on their website somewhere
[01:10] <Pupeno_> Is there a recomended way to build/install a new linux (that is, the kernel) on Ubuntu ?
[01:10] <bahadirt> hello guys
[01:11] <brutopia> Pupeno_: you want to update your kernel?
[01:11] <bahadirt> I am trying to config spamassassin on postfix
[01:11] <darth_gimp> Anyone going to look into the Official Ubuntu Book? Or is it worth it?
[01:11] <bahadirt> but it never marks messages with ***spam*** subject
[01:11] <Pupeno_> brutopia: I *need* to update Linux (kernel).
[01:11] <bahadirt> what can be wrong ?
[01:11] <gnomefreak> darth_gimp: please talk about that in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:12] <darth_gimp> thanks

[01:13] <CappO> i'm trying to install ubuntu on my dell laptop p3 500MHz, yesterday i tried one time, and when the install finished, to screen was all messed up, couldn't do anything, what can be the problem causing this ?
[01:13] <Pupeno_> brutopia: my kernel is not packaged for dapper, that's why I talked about building. I need 2.6.17
[01:13] <Bergcube> darth_gimp~  Regarding the video store app....  There was something suited for that in the latest issue of LinuxFormat.  (LFX82)  At least according to the one writing the article.  Unfortunately I don't have time to refind it in my copy now.
[01:13] <alex_> Anyone with an ATI card successfully play ut2003?

[01:14] <brutopia> then unpack source, configure it and execute make-kpkg kernel_image
[01:15] <brutopia> configure can be done with make menuconfig, make config or make xconfig
[01:15] <fjereca> hola
[01:15] <fjereca> dastfufcjfyjcg
[01:15] <Pupeno_> brutopia: should I build vanilla sources with edgy config ? vanilla sources with dapper config and --config oldconfig or edgy packages (modifing the dependencies so I can install them).
[01:15] <brutopia> you end up with .deb package of your new kernel which you can install with dpkg -i kernel.deb
[01:16] <brutopia> Pupeno_: just copy your current kernel's config from /boot and run make oldconfig for it
[01:16] <user-land> now KDE GDM does not let me login anymore ... i give username and password, the screen goes black and the login screen comes up again and again ...

[01:17] <Pupeno_> brutopia: vanilla then ?
[01:17] <brutopia> Pupeno_: it's your decision
[01:17] <Corporal_Dirge> Damnit, grabKeyboard is an "Xt" option, but googleing that returns too many irrelivant choices.

[01:40] <Corporal_Dirge> Is X resources that rare?
[01:40] <santa99> hi guys
[01:40] <Spy> hey if i have php4 and php5 installed how will apache know which version 2 use?
[01:40] <santa99> how can i add nautilus a adress line
[01:40] <Moof> stefg: yeah, no use for my problem. specifically, I cant' seem to get ubuntu to see my radi device during bootup
[01:40] <santa99> like the adress line in the konquerer
[01:41] <Corporal_Dirge> Test test, nobody has said anything to me in a few hours. Can anyone see my typing?
[01:41] <stefg> Moof: hardware or software raid?
[01:41] <santa99> Corporal_Dirge:  yeah can see you
[01:41] <Moof> this is software raid 5
[01:41] <vook> Corporal_Dirge, nope
[01:41] <jrib> Spy: the one you enable, though I'm not sure what it would do if you enable both
[01:41] <Moof> /dev/md0 doesnt' exist
[01:41] <Moof> and is root for my setup
[01:41] <Corporal_Dirge> ok. Just feeling ignored.
[01:41] <santa99> Corporal_Dirge:  writing
[01:41] <chamo> vook: completly frozen
[01:42] <santa99> Corporal_Dirge:  do you know how I can add nautilus a adress line like there is in the konquerer
[01:42] <stefg> Moof: that's always annoying... get non-raid /boot partition and save yourself trouble
[01:42] <darth_gimp> How might I add Mplayer to my PATH ?
[01:42] <Spy> jrib , would that be in the apache config files?
[01:42] <jrib> santa99: press ctrl-l, you can make it permanent in preferences
[01:42] <Moof> I have a non-raid /boot partition
[01:42] <santa99> jrib: thx
[01:42] <Corporal_Dirge> I've been trying to use the grabKeyboard resource.
[01:42] <Moof> I've doen this by the book using the ubuntu installer
[01:42] <chamo> it's weird cause it's only just after login. If I wait the computer dont freeze on login screen. and in recovery mode it works fine. it must be something with Kernel-Nvidia version.
[01:42] <vook> chamo, try ctrl-alt-backspace ???
[01:42] <Corporal_Dirge> santa99, I don't use konquerer.
[01:42] <chamo> vook: dont work either
[01:43] <jrib> Spy: yes, but you should use the a2enmod and a2dismod commands instead of manually editing
[01:43] <santa99> Corporal_Dirge:  ok
[01:43] <darth_gimp> How might I add Mplayer to my PATH ?
[01:43] <s_spif_> jrib, sorry got disconnected.. did you check it out?
[01:43] <jrib> darth_gimp: install it from the repositories, it is in multiverse
[01:43] <GTX> How do I monitor the bandwidth on my server of a certain port? I have mrtg installed but have no Idea how to make it monitor a certain port
[01:43] <chamo> Im wondering what is causing the freeze....
[01:43] <jrib> s_spif_: yes, did ./configure complete without errors?
[01:44] <darth_gimp> jrib, I have it installed from Synaptic.
[01:44] <Moof> stefg: is it possible that the standard udev doesn't load raid partitions? or that I don't have enough information in my /boot to create it?
[01:44] <s_spif_> yes
[01:44] <jrib> darth_gimp: type 'which mplayer', what does it say?
[01:44] <jrib> s_spif_: make as well?
[01:44] <vook> chamo, hmm, I'm on amd64, nvidia too. hmm.  I'm still using 2.6.15-25 though, 2.6.15-26 caused issues with my nvidia driver.
[01:44] <s_spif_> no
[01:44] <s_spif_>  make gives a error
[01:44] <darth_gimp> jrib, in Term?
[01:44] <jrib> darth_gimp: yes
[01:45] <jrib> s_spif_: did you install build-essential and all the dependencies for gipmsg?
[01:45] <s_spif_> jrib, configure also giving error
[01:45] <darth_gimp> jrib, /usr/bin/mplayer
[01:45] <chamo> aah
[01:45] <jrib> darth_gimp: mplayer is in your path :)
[01:45] <s_spif_> jrib, configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
[01:45] <chamo> I need to check this.
[01:45] <darth_gimp> ok strange.
[01:45] <chamo> rebooting in safe mode
[01:46] <stefg> Moof: i'd check both scenarios... and make sure all raid partitions are of type 'FD'
[01:46] <Spy> hey jrib the thing is that i cant find a mysql extension for php4 in the synaptic packet manager
[01:46] <darth_gimp> jrib, how do I confirm its version?
[01:46] <chamo> I got 2.6.15-26 (amd64-generic) and 2.6.15-23 installed only.
[01:46] <jrib> darth_gimp: mplayer -version
[01:46] <Moof> ok
[01:46] <jrib> Spy: yeah, install build-essential
[01:46] <jrib> s_spif_: yeah, install build-essential
[01:46] <vook> anyone know what my options are at boot for "hdc=blahblah" ??  I'm having "hal failed to load" issues at gnome startup, and some ubuntu forums say I should put "hcd=cdrom" in menu.lst, but I'm wondering if that's my only choice, it's a dvd-writer.
[01:46] <Moof> how does the ubuntu installer deal with RAID? am I looking at just md, or do I need to wrry abotu LVM too?
[01:47] <jrib> Spy: (that wasn't for you, sorry)
[01:47] <stefg> !lvm
[01:47] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[01:47] <darth_gimp> jrib, thanks
[01:47] <Moof> stefg: I take it that I need ot think in terms of LVM, then
[01:47] <chamo> !amd
[01:47] <ubotu> I know nothing about amd - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[01:47] <s_spif_> jrib, ok.. checking that out
[01:48] <Spy> jrib: Thanks for your time, I'll sort it out later or i'll re-install ubuntu server distro so that lamp is pre-installed and working
[01:48] <jrib> Spy: have you been to the lamp wiki page?
[01:48] <jrib> !lamp > Spy
[01:48] <Moof> stefg: thanks
[01:48] <stefg> Moof never bothered to install ubuntu directly to a raid array, so i don't know if raid in ubuntu implies the use of lvm
[01:49] <chamo> vook: what should I exactly install ?
[01:49] <bahadirt> hello
[01:49] <jrib> Spy: php4-mysql seems to be in universe, so be sure you have enabled that repository, the wiki goes into how to do this
[01:49] <brotakul> i succesfuly installed frostwire from a how-to tutorial but it refuses to run. it doesn't say anything, just doesn't start even after reboot. do i need anything else to install to make frostwire work?
[01:49] <bahadirt> anyone to help with clamav
[01:49] <bahadirt> ?_
[01:50] <jrib> brotakul: did you try to run it from the command line?
[01:50] <brotakul> from run
[01:50] <DjDarkman> hey can anyone help me to track down performance issues?
[01:50] <sid> !help
[01:50] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[01:50] <Corporal_Dirge> Does anyone know how to invoke X resources with applications?
[01:50] <s_spif_> jrib, i installed build-essential, but on doin the confighure ..i got this error : configure: error: libtool configure failed
[01:50] <mwe> bahadirt: for scanning the mail on your mail server?
[01:50] <jrib> brotakul: try typing 'frostwire' in applications > accessories > terminal and see if you get any useful output
[01:51] <bahadirt> mwe : yes. I installed spamassassin and clamav but not sure they both work
[01:51] <Corporal_Dirge> ...
[01:51] <bahadirt> neither spam mails are filtered nor virusguard seems to be active
[01:51] <brotakul> it says i don't have a valid JRE. but i already installed java
[01:51] <mwe> bahadirt: are you running a mail server?
[01:51] <bahadirt> yes. postfix
[01:52] <brotakul> and i don't have sound on youtube.com. is the same problem?
[01:52] <jrib> brotakul: what does 'java -version' say?
[01:52] <[Nige] > hi all
[01:52] <jrib> brotakul: different, that's flash, I'll send you a link to the restricted formats wiki for that
[01:52] <GroMeZ> hi
[01:52] <[Nige] > I am wanting to build a pxe server
[01:52] <jrib> !flash > brotakul
[01:52] <[Nige] > any suggestions where to start looking?
[01:52] <Warbo> brotakul: Try "java -jar /usr/lib/frostwire/frostwire.jar" or whatever the filename is
[01:53] <brotakul> ok.
[01:53] <mwe> bahadirt: I'm trying to make sure you know it's for scanning at mail servers. however you will probably have to read the documentation as it's not a one liner
[01:53] <vook> chamo, eh.  Hmm, well, I'll just tell you this.  Uncomment all the sources in /etc/apt/sources.list (except src, unless you want to wait a long time on updates).  Then, do a dist-upgrade and see what happens.   Just don't log in to gdm.  go to the terminal and /etc/init.d/gdm stop.  then do a apt-get dist-upgrade.  Who knows, maybe things will work afterwards.  Gotta go, batteries about to die.
[01:53] <s_spif_> jrib, still getting errors
[01:53] <Corporal_Dirge> If anyone knows anything about X... nm I give up
[01:53] <s_spif_>  :(
[01:53] <brotakul> it says java ver 1.4.2
[01:54] <brotakul> so it already is installed, right?
[01:54] <Corporal_Dirge> 1.4.2 is old
[01:54] <GroMeZ> yesterday, i helped a friend to install Ubuntu, everything was working fine until Synaptic ask him to reboot. He does and now, he can't run his system, it blocks on "/dev/hda5 : clean, 86344/977280 files, 599689/1953897 blocks... ok". Any ideas ?
[01:54] <Warbo> brotakul: Looks like it
[01:54] <bahadirt> mwe: I know. I sent spamlike emails to myself from same IP and spamassassin did not filter
[01:54] <bahadirt> maybe due to considering my IP as whitelist automatically
[01:54] <Warbo> brotakul: Try "sudo dpkg -l j2re1.4"
[01:54] <Warbo> oops
[01:54] <bahadirt> and now I am not sure clamav is active or not
[01:55] <Warbo> "sudo dpkg -l | grep j2re1.4"
[01:55] <mwe> bahadirt: I don't think it is unless you configured postfix to use it
[01:55] <jrib> brotakul: run 'sudo update-alternatives --config java' and make sure sun's is selected
[01:55] <jrib> s_spif_: yes, one sec
[01:55] <Pupeno_> GroMeZ: try selecting an old kernel from grub.
[01:56] <s_spif_> jrib, np
[01:56] <MrWizard> anybody with experience in the network connections in Ubuntu 6.06 ???? i have a problem
[01:56] <GroMeZ> Pupeno_, i said him to do this, but doesn't work :(
[01:56] <Corporal_Dirge> brotakul, do you want Suns newest java?
[01:56] <brotakul> dunno? helps?
[01:56] <Corporal_Dirge> Yes
[01:57] <Corporal_Dirge> It's 1.5+
[01:57] <brotakul> there are 3 java alternatives. withc?
[01:57] <MrWizard> anybody with experience in the network connections in Ubuntu 6.06 ???? i have a problem
[01:57] <Pupeno_> I don't know then.
[01:57] <Warbo> brotakul: The command I said checks if you have the older java package (1.4)
[01:57] <Corporal_Dirge> Sun IS java
[01:57] <Spy> hey jrib, php4 is not availabe to install using apt-get install BUT according to the wiki lamp the package is in the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake) main repository. Where can i add this repos?
[01:57] <Corporal_Dirge> the rest are imitators
[01:57] <jrib> !repos > Spy
[01:58] <bimberi> MrWizard: it's better just to ask.  If someone can help they'll answer
[01:58] <MrWizard> ok
[01:58] <Warbo> brotakul: Keep gcj installed though, cos I think some apps need it (gcj is the GNU Java, which doesn't work as well as Sun Java)
[01:58] <brotakul> ok
[01:58] <bimberi> (phew, only a small one)
[02:00] <MrWizard> I have recently installed Ubuntu 6.06 and afterward I have up-dated it. After restart I observed that the network connection was not working any more. At the beginig it worked as I up-dated it and navigatet the web.
[02:00] <MrWizard> Now it still doesn`t work!
[02:00] <brotakul> witch should i keep?       1        /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
[02:00] <brotakul>  +    2        /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
[02:00] <brotakul> *     3        /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[02:00] <MrWizard> I tried to set the dhcp and allow it to take an dynamic ip
[02:00] <MrWizard> but int doesn`t work
[02:01] <Warbo> brotakul: Dunno the top one, probably keep it. Keep the other two
[02:01] <MrWizard> i have also entered them manualy but still no results!
[02:01] <MrWizard> Anybody? Any idea?
[02:01] <Warbo> brotakul: try installing the galternatives package (GUI for alternatives, lets you pick the default)
[02:01] <MrWizard> I have recently installed Ubuntu 6.06 and afterward I have up-dated it. After restart I observed that the network connection was not working any more. At the beginig it worked as I up-dated it and navigatet the web.
[02:02] <MrWizard> I tried to set the dhcp and allow it to take an dynamic ip
[02:02] <Spy> thanks jrib, that did the trick
[02:02] <MrWizard> i have also entered them manualy but still no results!
[02:02] <Warbo> !repeat
[02:02] <gregg__> MrWizard: dns/gateway are set correctly?
[02:02] <MrWizard> yes
[02:02] <MrWizard> as I have noted them down
[02:03] <MrWizard> and in windows they work
[02:03] <MrWizard> you can see i can chat with you
[02:03] <MrWizard> :)
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning all
[02:03] <gregg__> ok - the module for your network card is loaded and works?
[02:03] <MrWizard> yes
[02:03] <bimberi> MrWizard: can you ping the gateway (when you set a manual address)
[02:03] <MrWizard> it worked in the begining
[02:03] <MrWizard> but after a restart it stopped working
[02:03] <gregg__> MrWizard: sounds very strange
[02:04] <MrWizard> i know
[02:04] <cwillu> !printing
[02:04] <Spy> hey does any1 know how i can disable auto-run for when i put a cd into the cd rom...
[02:04] <gregg__> maybe you have some kind of iptables firewall set up, which blocks access?
[02:04] <Warbo> Spy: System>Preferences>Removable Drives and Media
[02:04] <MrWizard> i do no know
[02:04] <MrWizard> i have received 2 days ago the LiveCD
[02:04] <Infern0o> hi, i'm looking for that cube desktop, the one you can turn, anybody knows how it's called?
[02:05] <MrWizard> installed the system
[02:05] <MrWizard> and updated it
[02:05] <Warbo> !xgl > Infern0o
[02:05] <PwcrLinux> what's the current linux version for breezy?, I have 2.6.12-10-386
[02:05] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[02:05] <Bergcube> MrWizard~  When you ping, do you only ping towards the FQDN or do you ping IP adresses as well?
[02:05] <MrWizard> i haven`t done any thing else
[02:05] <Spy> thanks... man that was really getting annoying
[02:05] <MrWizard> i tried to ping both of the
[02:05] <MrWizard> two options
[02:05] <PwcrLinux> join floods
[02:05] <MrWizard> but neither wirks
[02:05] <MrWizard> works*
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Kiddies are exploiting the routers eh?
[02:06] <gnomefreak> no
[02:06] <gnomefreak> Jack_Sparrow: that was a net split i think
[02:06] <Bergcube> MrWizard~  That is "good".  That means that at least the problem isn't in resolving names to addresses.
[02:06] <MrWizard> :)
[02:07] <david___> how do i edit grub?
[02:07] <J4t\_>  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:07] <bimberi> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:07] <Warbo> david___: "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[02:07] <J4t\_> \o
[02:07] <david___> thanks
[02:08] <Bergcube> david___~  Very carefully, and only after making a copy of /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> gnomefreak: I have a stupid problem.  XP nor Ub will actually turn off the computer.  It just goes to a static screen saying it is ok to turn off your machine now.  Power settings show S1 s3 or auto and all seem to do the sme thing
[02:08] <david___> thanks
[02:08] <PwcrLinux> gnomefreak: I have linux version 2.6.12-10-386 for breeze is that current one after the security updated.
[02:08] <Bergcube> Jack_Sparrow~  My guess: Unstandard APM in BIOS on your mainboard.
[02:09] <vook> Jack_Sparrow, what happens if you hold down the power button?
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> it turns off
[02:09] <gnomefreak> PwcrLinux: i dont remember current breezy kernel off hand but i do think that has something to do with kernel
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> 5 sec
[02:09] <vook> well then
[02:09] <MrWizard> are you sure that your computer allows you to turn of your computer jack_sparow
[02:09] <PwcrLinux> gnomefreak: okay
[02:09] <vook> Jack_Sparrow, update your bios if possible
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> It did for awhile.  I cant think a MSI P4 3ghz would not let you shut down correctly and I did not see anything on the msi site
[02:10] <Bergcube> Jack_Sparrow~  I agree with vook...  Or try setting it to factory default.
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> I hate flashing bios but I will see if that is one of the fixes..
[02:11] <snoops> I had an "failed to initalize HAL!" issue, and things like gnome-panel wouldn't load properly etc.. looked on forums they mentioned that error is due to samba shares in fstab..removed them then it all worked
[02:11] <Bergcube> Jack_Sparrow~  |Is it a Dell?
[02:11] <snoops> so.. my question is
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Nope MSI
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Desktop
[02:11] <snoops> I guess my option is to have a script to run when I login to my session which mounts.. then unmounts when I logout
[02:12] <Infern0o> !tell Infern0o about xgl
[02:12] <mwe> Jack_Sparrow: it sounds odd that a new board like that shouldn't support power off from software
[02:12] <vook> snoops, interesting, I'm having the same issue, but have no samba shares.  I do however have my camera in fstab as an msdos filesystem.  Hmm.  I wonder.
[02:12] <snoops> the HAL issue vook?
[02:13] <vook> snoops, exact same issue
[02:13] <Dasnipa`> snoops, i dont know that youd have to make one for when you logout... the OS should detect any mounted drives and unmount them
[02:13] <MrWizard> jack_sparrow try and read what i have written you on private
[02:13] <snoops> oh really Dasnipa`? Great!
[02:13] <Pupeno> anyone with a thinkpad t60 ?
[02:13] <MrWizard> Este cineva care sa ma poata ajuta si pe mine????? :((
[02:13] <vook> snoops, ah, my fstab doesn't say noauto, perhaps that's it???
[02:14] <adam_> does n e 1 no a real easy way(4 beginers) 2 make terminal commands automatically exicute on ubuntu startup??
[02:14] <brotakul> mrwizard: parca e canal de ubuntu si pe romania
[02:14] <MrWizard> :D unde???
[02:14] <Bergcube> Jack_Sparrow~  Off-hand suggestions to things you can tweek:  If "Plug and play OS" is yes in BIOS, set it to no.  And leave it there.  Also look at the APM settings in BIOS, perhaps it doesn't allow the S/W to control it.  Not the least check that ACPI indeed IS loaded during boot.
[02:14] <Spy> !lamp
[02:14] <mwe> adam_: do you mean when the sytem starts or when you log into X?
[02:14] <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
[02:14] <snoops> vook noauto means it doesn't automatically mount them?
[02:14] <Dasnipa`> adam_, id invest a bit of time to learn bash scripting
[02:14] <brotakul> nush :P spune-mi, desi si eu is incepator
[02:14] <vook> snoops, right, my msdos filesystem says "auto"
[02:15] <adam_> Dasnipa, wats that?
[02:15] <snoops> hmm worth a shot vook
[02:15] <snoops> I'll try as well
[02:15] <MrWizard> mai si eu sunt incepator

[02:17] <MrWizard> am incercat sa il las sa isi ia singur setarie
[02:17] <mwe> adam_: so the command you typed in there will run at next boot
[02:17] <MrWizard> nu a mers
[02:17] <MrWizard> le-am inrodus eu manual
[02:17] <MrWizard> nici asta nu a mers
[02:17] <MrWizard> :(
[02:17] <adam_> mwe, will it run every time i boot
[02:17] <Dasnipa`> how about we take the non-english to the proper non-english channel?
[02:17] <mwe> MrBrizzio: english only here, please

[02:18] <Spy> Hey every1
[02:18] <MrWizard> Romania
[02:18] <adam_> mwe, so were abouts do i write the command/s
[02:18] <s_spif_> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18512
[02:18] <MrWizard> is my country
[02:19] <MrWizard> so romanian is my language
[02:19] <Jaak_> hi, can anyone tell me how to change the root password of mysql?
[02:19] <mwe> yes I figured that much by now
[02:19] <vook> snoops, does your device-manager (device-viewer really) work?  Mine crashes.
[02:19] <Corporal_Dirge> Anyone know how to make a gui icon for a terminal command?
[02:19] <Spy> xgl-ubuntu has only 3 people in it... Can sum1 please help me remove the shortcut key SHIFT+Backspace that stops my gui from running
[02:19] <mwe> MrWizard: I don't know if there is a romanian chat room
[02:19] <snoops> mine works vook
[02:19] <PwcrLinux> cya later all
[02:20] <vook> snoops, ah, ok.
[02:20] <snoops> hmm.. how can I get a script to execute as root when I login to my session?
[02:20] <s_spif_> jrib, i think i copy pasted my 2 attempts in the pastebin
[02:20] <snoops> because umm for a mounting script I need to sudo it, don't I?
[02:21] <sapote> Jaak in the database store user and passwd. show databases;
[02:21] <Dasnipa`> snoops, bash script run on start
[02:21] <jrib> s_spif_: don't use sudo for ./configure
[02:21] <adam_> mwe, can i have multiple commands that exicute in order
[02:21] <Warbo> snoops: You can make root scripts run at boot, before login
[02:21] <GroMeZ> Pupeno, in fact, he has a new kernel, but if he boots on it, same error :/
[02:21] <mwe> snoops: why don't you just edit fstab properly?
[02:21] <s_spif_> ok
[02:21] <mwe> snoops: to automount whatever you need?
[02:22] <sapote> Jaak_ in the database store user and passwd. show databases;
[02:22] <snoops> mwe I get a "failed to initialize HAL!" error plus others when I have my network drives setup in fstab
[02:22] <s_spif_> jrib, then i get this error : ./configure: line 457: ./config.log: Permission denied
[02:22] <snoops> I checked the forums.. other people have that issue.. something to do with samba shares in fstab
[02:22] <jrib> s_spif_: delete that extracted directory and start over
[02:22] <snoops> so I removed them and it all worked :/
[02:22] <PanicFo> how can you check when files were last modified?
[02:22] <mwe> snoops: maybe you're not using the right syntax or there is some other problem
[02:22] <snoops> but I still need to access my samba shares across network
[02:22] <Warbo> snoops: Add stuff to /etc/rc.local apparently (personally I put stuff in /etc/init.d)
[02:23] <jrib> s_spif_: also, you need gnome-applets-dev I think
[02:23] <mwe> snoops: everything that can be mounted from the cli with the mount command can be mounted from fstab as well
[02:23] <Spy> jrib how do i start those modules again
[02:23] <s_spif_> ohh ok..
[02:23] <snoops> mwe, no the syntax is fine.. it mounts fine with no errors if I edit my fstab then sudo mount -a it
[02:23] <jrib> Spy: a2enmod to enable, a2dismod to disable
[02:24] <PanicFo> anyone?
[02:24] <mwe> snoops: yes but not if you set it to automount?
[02:24] <snoops> but some weird issue with trying to mount it at boot or whatever
[02:24] <s_spif_> jrib, installing it.
[02:24] <snoops> something like that mwe
[02:24] <s_spif_> jrib, this is what i hate abt linux, i have to break my head over small stuff like this
[02:24] <s_spif_> !
[02:24] <ubotu> I know nothing about ! - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:24] <mwe> snoops: maybe it's trying to mount it too early
[02:25] <vook> s_spif_, that's the best thing about linux :)
[02:25] <snoops> mwe it was the last stuff in my fstab
[02:25] <Warbo> snoops: I would write a simple little script, put it in /etc/init.d then use update-rc.d (read the manual) to run it at boot, with a large order number (so it gets done last)
[02:25] <mwe> snoops: still
[02:25] <mwe> snoops: if it's trying to mount before the needed services are started
[02:25] <s_spif_> jrib, still didnt work.. and the configure doesnt work without using sudo
[02:25] <snoops> mwe yep seems so - hence issues with fstab
[02:25] <mwe> snoops: no
[02:25] <snoops> thanks Warbo sounds like a go :)
[02:26] <jrib> s_spif_: how and where are you extracting the source?
[02:26] <s_spif_> i just extracted everything to a folder on my desktop :(
[02:26] <mwe> snoops: or just run it from rc.local
[02:26] <s_spif_> i didnt use the cmd line
[02:27] <mwe> snoops: make a script and call it from rc.local I would say
[02:27] <Warbo> mwe: Can you set the order in rc.local (so it runs after Samba)?
[02:27] <Corporal_Dirge> Anyone know how to make a gui icon for a terminal command?
[02:27] <mwe> Warbo: rc.local is run as 99
[02:28] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Alacarte (in Accessories), then drag it wherever you want
[02:28] <snoops> mwe feel free to suggest a way to get it working with fstab then :)
[02:28] <jrib> s_spif_: what did you mean by "doesn't work"?
[02:28] <s_spif_> jrib, gives me the following error : ./configure: line 457: ./config.log: Permission denied
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> I installed Kubuntu-Desktop now it takes 5 or 6 clicks just to exit Ubuntu.. Is there a way to fix that.
[02:28] <jenda-lappy> Could anyone help me change the sender ID in enigmail?
[02:28] <Warbo> mwe: Oh, well that is OK then :)
[02:28] <mwe> snoops: make a script and call it from rc.local I would say
[02:28] <mwe> snoops: unless you want to fix the entire bootup process
[02:28] <Corporal_Dirge> Warbo, New Launcher won't work?
[02:29] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Alacarte is basically the same
[02:30] <Corporal_Dirge> Warbo, doesn't seem to execute the command.
[02:30] <s_spif_> vook what did u mean its the best thing about linux, i've spent my whole day [ since after noon to right now 7 pm ]  only looking for a soln to this thing! which inclued looking for alternative programs!
[02:30] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Launchers don't seem to like options and files and stuff, so if you want that kind of stuff then make a script
[02:31] <jrib> s_spif_: ok, join my in #ubuntu-classroom, we'll go step by step
[02:31] <Corporal_Dirge> Warbo, I can type in in the terminal and t works, but the gui doesn't work.
[02:31] <s_spif_> jrib, i'm there
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> I installed Kubuntu-Desktop now it takes 5 or 6 clicks just to exit Ubuntu.. Is there a way to fix that. It is like I have to exit out of both Kubuntu and Ubuntu..
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge: What is your command line showing
[02:31] <Corporal_Dirge> I made an alias, so all it needs to do is run the 'israfel' command
[02:32] <vook> s_spif_, sigh...  the more you break your head over little stuff, the more brilliant you'll become.  That's my only point, but whatever.
[02:32] <Infern0o> !xgl > Infern0o
[02:32] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: If you want to do it a more manual way you can make a text file ending in .desktop in /usr/share/applications
[02:32] <Spy> can sum1 please help me.. if i press shift+backspace gnome crashes
[02:32] <Corporal_Dirge> I could try putting the command w/ options in there. Does it need " or ' or ` ?
[02:32] <Warbo> Spy: That is a problem with Compiz
[02:33] <Spy> yes
[02:33] <Spy> how do i fix it...
[02:33] <Warbo> Spy: There is something in the join message of #ubuntu-xgl
[02:33] <s_spif_> vook ok..brb..attending classes :P
[02:34] <jenda-lappy> Does anyone here work with enigmail? I'd like to make it use a new key for sending email and can't find a way of doing so.
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge:  I have a script on and I run it with launcher sudo sh ./home/blah/blah/blah

[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge: Did you get that working yet..
[02:36] <mwe> Spy: compiz is not stable. expect problems or don't use it
[02:36] <Spy> warbo it says i need to edit the compiz startup script. Any idea where it is?
[02:36] <Corporal_Dirge> Jack_Sparrow, Nope, nothing is working
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge: what is the command you need to run?
[02:36] <Warbo> Spy: That would depend how you installed it. There are a few ways (and I went off on some silly way of my own :) )
[02:36] <Spy> mwe : Besides for this 1 known bug compiz has not given me any trouble.. I understand it is not stable and i do expect hickups and stuff BUT this doesn't mean i wont try and fixwhat i can
[02:37] <Corporal_Dirge> xtightvncviewer 192.168.254.100 -noshared -passwd ~/.vnc/passwd -encodings Tight -quality 7 -fullscreen
[02:37] <mwe> Spy: of course
[02:37] <Corporal_Dirge> but that doesn't work.
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge: but it does entering it directly
[02:37] <Corporal_Dirge> Yup
[02:37] <Spy> hey does any1 know what the console search command is?
[02:37] <Corporal_Dirge> and via the alias
[02:37] <mwe> Spy: find
[02:38] <cmug> Spy, locate is great too
[02:38] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Make a script to do that, then make the launcher run the script
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge:  did you try what I put up earlier create launcher and for command line use sudo sh
[02:38] <mwe> Spy: locate is way way faster but only searhes certain common paths
[02:38] <Corporal_Dirge> I don't know scripts yet.
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Put that string into a sh script
[02:39] <Spy> oh okay.. well thanks guys
[02:39] <Corporal_Dirge> ?
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> A script is just a list of commands you would type on the command line
[02:39] <mwe> nah
[02:39] <mwe> a script can do way more
[02:39] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Line 1) "#!/bin/bash" line 2) "xtightvncviewer 192.168.254.100 -noshared -passwd ~/.vnc/passwd -encodings Tight -quality 7 -fullscreen" that's it

[02:40] <martianul`> hello
[02:40] <Guard] [an> already read this page
[02:40] <martianul`> i have a problem :(
[02:40] <Corporal_Dirge> line 1 s a comment?
[02:40] <marce59> hi ! I've recently installed this
[02:40] <Guard] [an> are there different versions / types of the wmv format ? which would explain why it fails ?
[02:41] <frogzoo> !helpme
[02:41] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:41] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: It tells the system what program to run the script with (so you can use Python, java, etc) but it looks like a comment so it doesn't confuse shells which don't understand it
[02:41] <Corporal_Dirge> Jack_Sparrow, I know what a script is, just not how to make a Linux one.
[02:41] <martianul`> i make ubuntu cd, and i tryed live version ... and ubuntu loaded and then appear a black screen and read from the cd non-stop ...
[02:41] <martianul`> my computer is dead
[02:41] <Warbo> Guard] [an: WMV <= 8 probably OK. 9 maybe, 10 no way
[02:41] <Corporal_Dirge> Warbo, I'm a java programmer, lets try that.
[02:41] <Guard] [an> ok
[02:42] <Warbo> Corporal_Dirge: Erm, bash is the terminal's shell
[02:42] <Guard] [an> thx
[02:42] <Corporal_Dirge> Yeah, borne again shell
[02:42] <Guard] [an> same shit as flash then
[02:42] <Warbo> Guard] [an: There's a Flash 10? :)
[02:42] <frogzoo> Corporal_Dirge: linux has many different types of scripts - shell, perl, python, expect, tcl etc ...
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Corporal_Dirge:  http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter and save it to your desktop
[02:42] <martianul`> if i close the pc ... will it be "destroy" ? :D
[02:42] <martianul`> it will bott with windows again?
[02:42] <martianul`> *boot
[02:42] <^osh^> Anyone here who has built packages with pbuilder and could give me a hand?
[02:42] <marce59> I want to know how to make a L.A.M.P. environment (Linux, Apache, MySql, PHP)  Do I need to download the sources for each product from its site ?
[02:42] <MenZa> martianul`: unless you installed anything over Windows, it should load.
[02:42] <martianul`> like never happend anything?
[02:42] <martianul`> nop
[02:42] <frogzoo> marce59: windows will boot yes
[02:42] <martianul`> i try live version
[02:42] <MenZa> marce59: download xampp?
[02:42] <frogzoo> martianul`: windows will boot yes

[02:42] <Guard] [an> yeah
[02:42] <Guard] [an> for windows
[02:42] <martianul`> be right back :D
[02:43] <Guard] [an> no flash 9 for windows
[02:43] <Guard] [an> afaik
[02:43] <Guard] [an> but linux is stuck to flash 7
[02:43] <Warbo> Guard] [an: MPlayer and stuff can use Windows codecs, it's just that WMVs are becoming encrypted, so not even other Windows computers can play some of them. Flash 8 has not been implemented, but it works in WINE
[02:43] <marce59> many thanks!

[02:45] <MarcN> There is no gnome scanner tool?  I've been using kooka, but would like something with a more gnome feel.  xsane is just a terrible ui

[02:57] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: GDM can log into KDE
[02:57] <Corporal_Dirge> sh ~/.vnc/israfel <- that file has the script to execute the command.
[02:57] <RandomDude15> anyone willing to help me with avidemux?
[02:58] <orbin> yacek19: all clear here.  pastebin the errors you get
[02:58] <Spy> okay.. your locate toggle-compiz works....
[02:58] <orbin> !paste > yacek19
[02:58] <snoops> :)
[02:58] <krism> RandomDude15: what's the question? (for future ref, don't ask to ask. just ask)
[02:58] <yacek19> error http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper/multiverse Packages  gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> warbo, I just do one login... any suggestions on where to look
[02:59] <Corporal_Dirge> I guess I have to open terminal every single time....
[03:00] <krism> Corporal_Dirge: did you try making that file executable? ("chmod +x ~/.vnc/israfel")
[03:00] <Spy> hey snoops the one with a ~ on the end is the one that is currently being executed?
[03:00] <LiteWait> I know there is a command line thing I can run to add 1400x1050 as a mode to X, but I can't remember it.  Can someone help?
[03:00] <the_Kane> hey
[03:00] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: You could start a new login (Alacarte, enable it in System Tools) and maybe run GNOME and KDE at the same time (ctrl-alt-f7 and ctrl-alt-f8 to switch)
[03:00] <yacek19> any ideas about server error?
[03:00] <snoops> not sure spy, maybe *shrug*
[03:01] <orbin> yacek19: pastebin your sources.list file
[03:01] <the_Kane> i need some help with X Server http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=220222
[03:01] <the_Kane> any ideas

[03:01] <Jack_Sparrow> warbo, I dont need two sessions, just want to be able to shut down without 5 or 6 clicks
[03:01] <Corporal_Dirge> krism, woohoo, thanks. after 9 hours it's finally working... I hope.
[03:02] <yacek19> done http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18514
[03:02] <orbin> yacek19: looking
[03:02] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: I have Kubuntu and Ubuntu desktop packages, 3 click shutdown (sys>quit>shut down)
[03:02] <krism> RandomDude15: hmm. not sure. you've posted your question in the right place though.
[03:02] <Jaak_> is it possible to get rid of that anoying square pointer in using VNC?
[03:02] <MarcN> Jack_Sparrow: sudo reboot      ?
[03:02] <RandomDude15> yeah.
[03:02] <RandomDude15> the top 2 look great but the bottom 2 ewq
[03:02] <RandomDude15> *ew
[03:02] <vincenz> How do I remove tapioca?  I installed it while in breezy and there's no package for it now
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> warbo, that only takes me to the Kubuntu shutdown where I need to click menu then shut down.. again
[03:03] <frogzoo> the_Kane: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg          should usually do it, just selecting defaults & proper resolutions, if not, try setting horizsync/vertrefresh
[03:03] <frogzoo> !fixres > the_Kane
[03:03] <frogzoo> vincenz: hot soapy water & a stiff brush
[03:03] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: "Kubuntu shutdown"?
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Yep
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Kubuntu Login and shutdown
[03:04] <the_Kane> frogzoo: i tried reconfiguring xserver-xorg, didn't work. how do i set the horizsync/vetrefresh ?
[03:04] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: KDM?
[03:04] <frogzoo> the_Kane: read ubotu's link
[03:04] <the_Kane> cheers
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Everything changed when I installed Kubuntu-desktop
[03:04] <Corporal_Dirge> Jaak_, I dunno. I just figured tightvnc out after 9 hours
[03:04] <Warbo> !info kdm
[03:04] <ubotu> kdm: X display manager for KDE. In repository main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu27 (dapper), package size 600 kB, installed size 1468 kB
[03:04] <fowlduck> is there a way to stop ubuntu from checking a fat32 partition on boot?
[03:05] <vincenz> Anyone... old packages from breezy that are no longer listed but whose files are still installed?
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck: take it out of your fstab
[03:05] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: If you have more than one display manager you can disbale them manually in /etc/rcX.d or with dpkg-reconfigure
[03:05] <frogzoo> fowlduck: you don't want to do that, & we won't tell you how anyway :)
[03:05] <Kamping_Kaiser> fowlduck, check the fstab man page - one of the last two 0's is 'disable fsck'
[03:05] <rezo> Is there any way of unhiding desktop icons in Ubuntu 6.06?
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> warbo thanks, will check into it..
[03:05] <frogzoo> oh noes - Kamping_Kaiser gave the game away... :p
[03:06] <fowlduck> frogzoo, on the contrary I DOOOOOOOOOOOOO want to do that
[03:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> l;ol
[03:06] <Warbo> vincenz: Go in aptitude and there is a section "Local or obsolete"
[03:06] <reZo> Because, I acidently hide them, and I can't even right click on the desktop :S
[03:06] <yukselD> when entering 2.6.17 kernel ubuntu packet list
[03:06] <frogzoo> fowlduck: you only think you do, but I doubt doing it is in your best interests....
[03:06] <vincenz> Warbo: not n there
[03:06] <orbin> yacek19: dunno to be honest.  try using a mirror maybe
[03:06] <fowlduck> frogzoo, I just didn't know it was in the fstab, I was gonna mess with the init
[03:06] <Warbo> vincenz: You sure it was a package?
[03:06] <vincenz> Warbo: I did a generic search in aptitude...nada
[03:06] <vincenz> Warbo: yes
[03:06] <fowlduck> frogzoo, no, I DO want to do that, thanks
[03:06] <yacek19> if I turn off multiverse binary everything is ok
[03:06] <frogzoo> fowlduck: there's a reason file systems get regularly checked, you know
[03:07] <vincenz> Warbo: this is the second time this happened, first time was when ghc6 was installed, leaving the old 6.4 installation when installing 6.4.1
[03:07] <fowlduck> frogzoo, yes, and I do that manually
[03:07] <frogzoo> fowlduck: then clearly you know what you're doing, so cool
[03:07] <Jack_Sparrow> frogzoo: If he is running windows too, which is probably the reason for the fat32 in the first place, Windows can check the fat32
[03:07] <fowlduck> frogzoo, although I'd rather see an "every 30 boots" like ext
[03:07] <orbin> yacek19: try changing the multiverse line to: deb http://pl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper multiverse
[03:08] <orbin> yacek19: that 'should' use the polish mirror
[03:08] <Jaak_> nobody knows how to get rid of the square 2nd mouse pointer using vnc?
[03:08] <the_Kane> is kdm only 600kb download! ?
[03:08] <krism> Jaak_: can you post a screenshot somewhere?
[03:08] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, frogzoo, precisely, and I defrag every now and again, which in effect rewrites huge portions of the filesystem, functioning as a check.  Plus windows detects problems
[03:09] <yacek19> can anyone paste original sources.list file just after installation?
[03:09] <Corporal_Dirge> grrr, it keeps randomly closing now.
[03:09] <fowlduck> and for some reason my whacked-out laptop CDs install windows on fat32
[03:09] <fowlduck> I mean, why?
[03:09] <fowlduck> ugh
[03:09] <kikko> hey, how do I get my laptop to suspend
[03:09] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck: that can be fixed.. XP or other?
[03:10] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, XP
[03:10] <krism> Jaak_: the xtightvncviewer option "-x11cursor" might suit you, but you might dislike it. (apt-get install xtightvncviewer)
[03:10] <kikko> the acpid log shows that it completed the button/sleep event
[03:10] <Jaak_> krism, no can't post screenshot beceause the pointers arn't visible on it... :'(
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck: You should be able to fix that during the install
[03:10] <kikko> called the script
[03:10] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, the "recovery" CDs don't allow that
[03:10] <kikko> yet nothing happens :[
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> ooooh
[03:10] <fowlduck> yeah, weird stuff
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck:  then something like partition magic might work
[03:11] <monteiro_> anyone knows how to activate acpi ?
[03:11] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, I have that, but it's not worth the effort for how little I work
[03:11] <krism> Jaak_: make sure to call "xtightvncviewer" instead of "vncviewer" if you want to try that out
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck: Is there an i386 folder on your recovery disks, my Dell has it
[03:12] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, indeed there is
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> You can run a manual install from there..
[03:12] <fowlduck> Jack_Sparrow, and it's on my drive
[03:12] <fowlduck> really?
[03:12] <fowlduck> how?
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> YEa
[03:12] <fowlduck> never heard of that, but I'm not too into windows
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> there is an exe in that folder, but I cant remember the name... way down the list..
[03:13] <fowlduck> hehe, giving windows advice on #ubuntu
[03:14] <sunnzy2> Hello everyone.
[03:14] <sunnzy2> Does anyone know if Linux supports SATA Hard drives?
[03:15] <fowlduck> sunnzy2, yes
[03:15] <twa1296> sunnzy2, it does
[03:15] <fowlduck> sunnzy2, of course :)
[03:15] <sunnzy2> At what level?
[03:15] <frogzoo> sunnzy2: of course
[03:15] <fowlduck> frogzoo, jinx, you owe me a coke
[03:15] <sunnzy2> Does the kernel supports it by default?
[03:15] <fowlduck> sunnzy2, yes
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> fowlduck: I want to say it is win32nt or something like that
[03:15] <sunnzy2> As in I don't have to do anything special?
[03:15] <sunnzy2> Cool
[03:15] <sunnzy2> Thanks guys!
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> sunnzy2: yes
[03:15] <fowlduck> sunnzy2, sure
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Running them here
[03:15] <frogzoo> fowlduck: columbian or nicaraguan?
[03:15] <fowlduck> sunnzy2, unless you wanna do raid
[03:16] <fowlduck> frogzoo, lolz :D
[03:16] <sunnzy2> I was just worrying since I saw on a website that none of the Windows support it other than XP
[03:16] <frogzoo> the_Kane: you set vertrefresh/horizsync? pastebin /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:17] <idefix> Toten could not play 'fd://0'. what do I install to fix this?
[03:17] <frogzoo> idefix: you're playing a _floppy drive__ !!!
[03:18] <bartzila> lol
[03:18] <idefix> frogzoo... oh, I thought I played a live stream of the tour
[03:18] <Warbo> Floppy drives make such a soothing sound, why not play them in Totem?
[03:19] <Pupeno> mmhh... I am having trouble finding my own access point and my neighbors', that is, in one scan I see one, then I see the other, then I see none for a couple of scans and this is driving me crazy. Maybe it is possible that something is causing a major interference around here ?
[03:19] <frogzoo> please tell me fd stands for file descriptor...
[03:19] <idefix>  frogzoo I click on some live stream on internet
[03:19] <frogzoo> Pupeno: separate them to different channels, otherwise they will interfere
[03:20] <twa1296> idefix looks like you need the mozilla-mplayer plugin
[03:20] <Warbo> Surely plugins are not needed to play streams? Just mplayer would work?
[03:20] <Pupeno> frogzoo: everything was working perfectly two days ago.
[03:21] <Pupeno> frogzoo: unless the neighbor changed the channel of his AP, then the state of channels haven't changed.
[03:21] <idefix> twal296 thx, let me try it
[03:21] <frogzoo> Pupeno: or they upped their power?
[03:21] <Pupeno> frogzoo: btw, the scan shows my channel is 6 and his 11.
[03:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno: Sounds like a 2.4 ghz portable phone
[03:21] <Pupeno> frogzoo: upped ?
[03:22] <frogzoo> Pupeno: then there's no way they can interfere (upped = increased)
[03:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno: Thay can really mess things up
[03:22] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Ah, thought you meant clock speed :)
[03:22] <Pupeno> frogzoo: I dubt they've done that. But I don't mean they interfeering each other, I mean something else interfering.
[03:22] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: maybe... in Germany ?
[03:23] <avis> Pupeno: i ran into a problem where both us and our neighbors wanted to use channel 6
[03:23] <frogzoo> Pupeno: wireless phone or microwave
[03:23] <Pupeno> avis: neighbors using 11
[03:23] <avis> thats what i'm using at the moment
[03:23] <avis> perhaps you are my neighbor :)
[03:23] <frogzoo> avis: look at the window
[03:23] <frogzoo> avis: too late...
[03:23] <Pupeno> what about big engine-powered electricity generator, can they generate interference ?
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[03:24] <frogzoo> Pupeno: is this a trick question?
[03:24] <Pupeno> it seems they are using one 30 or 40 metters from here.
[03:24] <cappiz> i did apt-get install fluxbox gdm... an only those two packages got installed... bow i want to use the latest from fluxbox source... when i then want to install gdm (since it gets uninstalled when i remove fluxbox) it need to install a shitload of other packages.... is there a way to ONLY install gdm=
[03:24] <s_spiff> guys what the best player for music?
[03:24] <Pupeno> avis: doubt it, do you have it totally open (no wep, no wpa) ?
[03:24] <avis> Pupeno: i kid you not we both wanted to use channel 6 and we originally had 6 until our rangemax died and i had some connectivity problems and got a rangemax 240 but its supposed to change channels adaptively
[03:24] <frogzoo> s_spiff: amarok, no question
[03:25] <Warbo> s_spiff: XMMS, Amarok, Listen, Banshee, Rhythmbox, BMP
[03:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno: at 30 or 40 meters it would need to be a BIG generator
[03:25] <avis> Pupeno: no but my neighbor does
[03:25] <s_spiff> wher can i find Listen, heard about it before also
[03:25] <Warbo> !listen
[03:25] <ubotu> I know nothing about listen - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:25] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: it is a construction, I haven't seen it but I can hear it.
[03:25] <Warbo> damn
[03:25] <s_spiff> Warbo, i cant find BMP for a 64 bit processor..not on synaptic..not on their repo's
[03:26] <Warbo> I don't like BMP anyway :)
[03:26] <Corporal_Dirge> Help, Movie Player has taken over all my other players.
[03:26] <s_spiff> hehe
[03:26] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: there's one of those big things to break the streets... those nasty things... and I hear a steady humming... maybe it is just the engine of the thing.
[03:26] <s_spiff>  Corporal_Dirge movie player?
[03:26] <Warbo> s_spiff: Totem probably
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno: if they shut it down at night or lunch do you see a difference?
[03:27] <frogzoo> Pupeno: I'm guessing it arrived on the street maybe a couple of days ago?
[03:27] <Corporal_Dirge> Yes, I used to have defaults set up for MPlayer an VLC, but now only Movi player loads, and it never works at that
[03:27] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: I don't know... I'll have to wait till that. I've been having trouble to connect for some days, but I thought it was a problem with the wpa implementation.
[03:27] <Pupeno> frogzoo: yes, maybe even just today.
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno: SOme of those const generators are really really bad about RF control
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Time to run, make nice with the wife..  Later people..
[03:28] <Corporal_Dirge> wth? every time I set VLC as default ubuntu adds another VLC radio button that's unclickable.
[03:29] <Pupeno> I'll way till they live to continue trying.
[03:29] <Corporal_Dirge> Not only that, totem doesn't close, I have t force quit it.
[03:30] <wahjava> hi channel
[03:31] <wahjava> how do I play Iagno on a network ?

[03:31] <wahjava> I'm unable to Host Local Game

[03:33] <avis> Pupeno: i only keep a wireless network interface card in case of a hurricane.  my neighbor will then open his main network or i will ask him to and i will do the same and for any other of my neighbors out there.
[03:34] <idefix> twal 296 16 programs have been installed... which program is the right one? the README says "See INSTALL on how to build and install" but there's no INSTALL :-(
[03:34] <dj_baggio> DESTROY created new reference to dead object ' Qt::VBoxLayout', <> line 1 during global destruction.
[03:34] <dj_baggio> wtf? :)
[03:34] <dj_baggio> global destruction :] 
[03:34] <Pupeno> avis: mh ? you don't use wireless, you only have it for hurricans ?
[03:34] <avis> that would be correct :)  i use patch cable otherwise
[03:35] <twa1296> idefix: what did you do exactly?
[03:35] <idefix> twal296 only download from the repository
[03:35] <idefix> I clicked on apply in synaptic packet manager
[03:35] <idefix> after selecting the program
[03:36] <twa1296> idefix did you install "mozilla-mplayer"?
[03:36] <Pupeno> avis: and if a hurricane comes you'll switch to wifi ? or is it to give other people internet access ?
[03:36] <cappiz> i did apt-get install fluxbox gdm... an only those two packages got installed... bow i want to use the latest from fluxbox source... when i then want to install gdm (since it gets uninstalled when i remove fluxbox) it need to install a shitload of other packages.... is there a way to ONLY install gdm=
[03:37] <idefix> well yes since when I click on properties in synaptic packet manager it has a tab "installed files" but there's no INSTALL file in it
[03:37] <idefix> only a small README
[03:37] <Corporal_Dirge> OMG! My "Open With..." has 5 entries for VLC only the top one is selectable.
[03:37] <wahjava> how do I play Iagno on a network ?
[03:38] <wahjava> I'm on Ubuntu 6.06 (AMD64)
[03:38] <Corporal_Dirge> WTH? It won't let me uninstall the bastard Totem!
[03:38] <twa1296> idefix do an apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[03:38] <wahjava> I'm unable to "host local game", it is disabled
[03:38] <idefix> twal296 but that's what you do when you select the program in synaptic packet manager and click on apply!
[03:38] <avis> Pupeno: both
[03:39] <twa1296> idefix, yes, so it should be installed now
[03:39] <avis> i will just turn off file sharing
[03:39] <Corporal_Dirge> Does anyone know what to do?
[03:39] <Pupeno> avis: why would you use it ? because of lightnings ?
[03:39] <avis> because thats how we stayed connected all the way through hurricane rita

[03:40] <kihai> just a short question: Sometimes my only installed printer disappears from the list of available printers in OpenOffice. Instead there's a "Generic printer" which doesn't work, of course. Shutting down OO and starting it again helps, but I wonder if I could get rid of this prob completely???
[03:40] <avis> plus my router pumps more juice than my neighbors and i can't use MIMO because of a wireless multifunction center i setup yesterday so it wont conflict with his channel 6
[03:41] <Corporal_Dirge> ... guess Ubuntu is done then. I'm formatting. Took almost a month to get this far.
[03:42] <wahjava> Corporal_Dirge, apt-get remove totem

[03:43] <Corporal_Dirge> totem has taken over ever multimedia function, one by one.
[03:43] <avis> though i had really thought about it.  at the time the router was in the office and i thought we can't we use MIMO ?  We had and used mimo when we first moved here and were on channel 6 as well.  turns out it causes problems which is in part why i bought the new router that and some disconnection problems in my room.  i guess its rude. first come first serve basis.  though in the practical sense why should my neighbor hinder our hardware and hom

[03:44] <whyameye_> I'm on a macbook and I'd like to figure out how to get the function key to be recognized. This is probably a special case of a more general problem of figuring out the keycode and then mapping it. How do I do this?
[03:45] <bsdirl> strange question, On Ubuntu Breezy (gnome) my printer was fine, then I upgraded to xubuntu dapper and it isn't recognized, know what i need to do?

[03:45] <bsdirl> its an hp, and the hplip package was installed on breezy
[03:45] <bsdirl> and is installed in dapper now

[03:47] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:47] <nn> So.. last night i went from hoary to dapper.. I no longer have a tiacx module for my wlan card.. ruh roh
[03:48] <nn> must i keep using the older kernel for that module or is there a package or such i missed?
[03:48] <bsdirl> that's been my only gripe with dapper so far lol
[03:48] <idefix> who has put stuff in this pastebin?
[03:48] <ic56> idefix: except for semaphores, memory maps, network devices and all the other crap added to unix over the years
[03:48] <bsdirl> my printer that i hardly use
[03:48] <kihai> just a short question: Sometimes my only installed printer disappears from the list of available printers in OpenOffice. Instead there's a "Generic printer" which doesn't work, of course. Shutting down OO and starting it again helps, but I wonder if I could get rid of this prob completely???
[03:49] <nn> bsdirl: acx or printer? :P
[03:49] <bsdirl> um what's an acx?
[03:49] <Corporal_Dirge> krism, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18516
[03:49] <nn> bsdirl: ti network control chip for 802.11g
[03:50] <bsdirl> ahh gotcha
[03:50] <nn> acx 100/111 dependant on type of card are most commonly used.. apparently hoary shipped w/the driver
[03:50] <bsdirl> nah, it's the printer no doubt :D
[03:50] <renegade_of_funk> hi! i have a problem with my video playback, the CPU usage always goes to 100%
[03:50] <nn> but now dapper no have it ;\
[03:50] <nn> Hmm i suppose i could build it myself..
[03:51] <mnp> good morning.
[03:51] <krism> Corporal_Dirge: hmm. i don't see anything amiss :-/
[03:51] <bsdirl> nn: ive been building my modem driver since i got breezy
[03:52] <avis> i didn't know breezy was still supported
[03:52] <idefix> do you guys have copyleft over certain programs?
[03:52] <nn> bsdirl: i'm aware it's by far not difficult, i've wrote drivers :P but im curious if theres just a package i missed that has the driver already built, ya know?
[03:52] <mnp> does anyone else find evolution to hang up or freeze? i got so fed up i switched to thunderbird, but now thunderbird wont times out when it send mail from OOffice
[03:52] <Corporal_Dirge> krism, totem has taken over all media types, mp3, mpg, mov, mp4, etc
[03:53] <bsdirl> nn: i didnt say you werent aware. but as for me, no broadband out here, so no use for wireless :(
[03:53] <nn> bsdirl: Aww
[03:53] <nn> mine's barely broadband
[03:53] <krism> Corporal_Dirge: i mean i do not see anything amiss in your process list. the results of "ps ax"
[03:53] <bsdirl> im on 28k, ISDN would actually be an upgrade
[03:53] <Corporal_Dirge> krism, Attempting to chang back to VLC only duplicates the option and totem takes over again
[03:54] <sk4jvoker_> i have a prob with my video playback , the cpu usage always goes all the way to 100%
[03:54] <bsdirl> i despise totem, viva la xine
[03:55] <nn> i still adore mplayer
[03:55] <EdsipeR> I'm coimpiling a oroginal source tree kernel, but when I restart the computer kernel says that can't mount devfs, ubuntu uses DEVFS???, running with the distribution kernel I can't see anything about devfs on /proc/filesystems or /etv/fstab, any ideas?
[03:55] <bsdirl> i tried mplayer on slax once, it was nice.
[03:55] <bsdirl> i plan on downloading it... when i feel like waiting lol
[03:57] <kikinovak> Hi. Anyone here using apt-proxy?
[03:57] <Hoxzer_> how do I go back in directories in naitilus ?
[03:57] <Hoxzer_> :D or what is the quick button for it
[03:57] <bsdirl> would it've been helpful to have the printer plugged in when i installed xubuntu? *noob mistake*
[03:58] <nn> Hoxzer_: backspace mebbe?
[03:58] <s_spiff> hey any1 knows how to get headphones+mic working? my speakers are working. but not the headphones which has mic built in
[03:58] <Hoxzer_> nn: thx maan love to you <3
[03:59] <nn> s_spiff: are they plugged in?
[03:59] <nn> Not being a smartass.. but it happens
[03:59] <s_spiff> nn, lol yea
[03:59] <nn> and the mic just doesnt work or ?
[03:59] <mnp> is there a way for gaim to support the nice features of xchat-gnome? like tabbing to complete a word, and scrolling through previous commands with the up arrow?
[04:00] <nn> mnp: If it doesnt, you can write that as a plugin im sure ;)
[04:00] <sk4jvoker_> i have a prob with my video playback , the cpu usage always goes all the way to 100% ,
[04:00] <dj_baggio> !cedega
[04:00] <mnp> i dont know how to write a plugin :(
[04:00] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on wine, aimed at running windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega
[04:00] <bsdirl> *cough* ftp server
[04:01] <bigfoot1> how do i restart my sound server?
[04:01] <bsdirl> cedega hasn't been that impressive on my system yet
[04:01] <bsdirl> it runs UO well, but so does wine.
[04:02] <avis> i got a geforce 6200 (i know big deal) for more advanced display of screensavers
[04:03] <snoops> should give xgl/compiz a go too with that card avis :)
[04:03] <Ronz> hey hey...im having some problems trying to run wine under ubuntu
[04:03] <Ronz> whenever i try to open something, heres the error i get:
[04:03] <Ronz> "Application tries to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
[04:03] <Ronz> Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly"
[04:03] <bsdirl> Ronz: I'm a wine weirdo *watches*
[04:03] <bsdirl> oh crap
[04:03] <avis> hehe i already done that.  its too unstable plus it seems unstandard.  though when i did run it -- uber cool.
[04:03] <bsdirl> did you build the tarball?
[04:03] <whyameye_> how can I find out the keyboard mapping codes to my keyboard?
[04:03] <bsdirl> or use the binary?
[04:04] <Ronz> i used the binary...im assuming
[04:04] <Ronz> the one you get from synaptic package manager
[04:04] <avis> good question whyameye_, i have some keys that need mapping myself.
[04:04] <Ronz> i tired to build the old version on my gaming computer, bsdirl and got the same error
[04:05] <avis> Happy Birthday Hobbsee !
[04:05] <whyameye_> avis: i found showkey, but it says it can't find a file descripter...
[04:05] <avis> hmm dont know
[04:05] <BirthdayHobbsee> avis: :)
[04:05] <Ronz> and i also just realizedthat i cant run winecfg....should i recompile it?
[04:05] <avis> whyameye_: where is showkey ?
[04:06] <bigfoot1> how do i restart my sound server?
[04:06] <whyameye_> avis: it's a command line app.
[04:06] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:07] <idefix> the directory /dev contains only special files used for input and output?
[04:07] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: thanks
[04:07] <wildman> idefix, usually yes, and even created dynamically, according to your hardware
[04:08] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: i did that command and got this message: " Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing'...                  [fail] "
[04:08] <avis> none of my extra keys are being shown though its not very obvious on my keyboard
[04:08] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: run it as sudo (put sudo in front of the command) and try again...
[04:08] <idefix> wildman, so then since I installed mplayer now some files must be added to it
[04:08] <BSoDirl> power failure :(
[04:09] <anosa> i'm running out of space on my root parititon, is it ok to remove packages in /var/cache/apt/archive ??
[04:09] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: that worked!!! yippee. thanks!
[04:09] <J4t> anosa: sudo apt-get clean
[04:09] <Hotwired>  hey, is there an on-line alternate for "deb file:/var/cache/apt-build/repository apt-build main" as this produces an error
[04:09] <wildman> idefix, euh... no
[04:09] <anosa> J4t ok thnx
[04:09] <wildman> idefix, mplayer is software, not hardware :)
[04:09] <Sherwin> how do i install themes that i download off gnome-look ?
[04:09] <J4t> np
[04:10] <bonsai> Sherwin just drag and drop the downloaded archive into the theme manager
[04:10] <avis> system preferences-themes
[04:10] <idefix> wildman, ok input and output is CD/DVD'roms, floppy-/harddisks etc. etc.
[04:10] <wildman> idefix, mouse, printers, etc, etc, etc. yes.
[04:10] <idefix> why are so many dates of files in the /dev dir about one our in the future?
[04:10] <idefix> one hour
[04:11] <Sherwin> bonsai it says invalid format everytime even when extracted
[04:11] <brotakul> 1 question about XGL: how can i modify other settings like menu delay, window animation and stuff? the 3D cube is just what i need, i can get rid of other settings..
[04:11] <bahadirt> hello guys
[04:12] <nn> Hah i just filled up my root partition
[04:12] <nn> Shit.
[04:12] <bahadirt> I need help on opening the postfix to relay
[04:12] <idefix> wildman why are so many dates of files in the /dev dir about one hour in the future? (21-7-2006 5:14:07 PM
[04:12] <idefix> )
[04:12] <bonsai> Sherwin, what's the extension of the file you downloaded?
[04:12] <s_spiff> anyone tried bmpx?
[04:12] <wildman> idefix, dunno, never checked such things
[04:12] <monteiro> anyone knows where i change the kernel parameters ?
[04:13] <wildman> idefix, but I might think of a DST thing maybe?
[04:13] <kikinovak> monteiro yeah use make menuconfig :oD
[04:14] <Tommy2k4> when i boot up it tries to open sendmail even though ive apt-get remove sendmail, rm /etc/init.d/sendmail, update-rc.d sendmail remove
[04:14] <Sherwin> bonsai its this that i download http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=37049
[04:14] <Tommy2k4> how can i stop it
[04:14] <Tommy2k4> it adds like a minute to bootup time
[04:14] <XVampireX> Hi
[04:14] <s_spiff> guys any1 tried the new bmpx media player?
[04:14] <bonsai> Sherwin, this is a gdm theme, a login screen theme
[04:14] <Sherwin> yea
[04:14] <Sherwin> ahh
[04:14] <XVampireX> I'm having problems with ALSA Recording, I asked in #alsa but someone said it must be a ubuntu problem
[04:15] <Sherwin> ahh
[04:15] <Sherwin> sorry
[04:15] <stefg> !sound
[04:15] <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
[04:15] <Sherwin> i put that in login manager yes ?
[04:15] <bonsai> Sherwin, to install that you can go to System -> Adminstration -> Login Window
[04:15] <XVampireX> The problem I'm getting is: ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.
[04:15] <Sherwin> yea
[04:15] <Sherwin> cheers
[04:15] <bonsai> np
[04:16] <kikinovak> XVampireX open a terminal, sudo -s -H, run 'alsamixer'
[04:16] <XVampireX> sudo: please use single character options
[04:16] <freezey> which do you guys think is better to backup information.... cronjob or rsync?
[04:17] <Andreas_justanoo> hello folks, any ubuntu gamers in here? I've got some problems with Nexuiz and Enemy Territory
[04:17] <isheep> is there a "shipit" channel?
[04:17] <kikinovak> XVampireX did you type 'sudo -s -H'? (without quotes)
[04:17] <XVampireX> yes
[04:18] <XVampireX> Actually, the full error is
[04:18] <XVampireX> serge@serge-desktop:~/Games/StepMania-CVS-20060716$ sudo -s -H, run 'alsamixer'
[04:18] <XVampireX> sudo: please use single character options
[04:18] <XVampireX> /bin/bash: run: No such file or directory
[04:18] <whyameye_> avis: xev is our friend. Tells us scan codes, it looks like...
[04:18] <idefix> how often have you formatted your harddrive because you think you messed up your linux installation ?
[04:18] <XVampireX> oh wait
[04:18] <kikinovak> XVampireX sorry I'm new to Ubuntu... I'm a sysadmin, using Slackware for years... just giving this thing a try... things seem to run differently here... this sudo/no-root thing is rather braindead IMNSHO
[04:19] <vincenz> Hi
[04:19] <kikinovak> XVampireX anyway try to gain root rights
[04:19] <XVampireX> lol, kikinovak yeah, I'm in alsamixer now
[04:19] <vincenz> Is it possible that aoss (alsa oss emulation) does not handle mic?
[04:19] <kikinovak> XVampireX
[04:19] <kikinovak> oops
[04:19] <rusher> konbonwa
[04:19] <bahadirt> The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'ismail@medcargo.com'.

[04:19] <XVampireX> kikinovak, what now that I'm in alsamixer?
[04:19] <avis> whyameye_: thank you
[04:20] <kikinovak> XVampireX I'm sure there's a GUI way to do this, but this is the app I've been using for years.
[04:20] <XVampireX> alright
[04:20] <XVampireX> so what do I do now?
[04:21] <kikinovak> Well, it's pretty much intuitive, isn't it? One line, one channel. Use <right> to change the channel, <left/right> to navigate, Cursor up/down to increase/decrease sound level.
[04:21] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: can i tell you why I restarted my sound server?
[04:21] <bigfoot1> can i tell you what problem I was trying to solve? (It's still not solved).
[04:21] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: sure, but I am no Linux guru...
[04:21] <kikinovak> XVampireX once you've got your settings right, <Esc> for exit, and then as root 'alsactl store' to make these settings default
[04:21] <vincenz> Anyone know how to get skype working with ALSA?  I'm using aoss but apparently the mic does not work
[04:21] <avis> whyameye_: in xev outer and inner window dont seem to do anything ??
[04:21] <bigfoot1> in System/Preferences/multimedia Systems Selector, when I press the "Test" key under Default Audio Plugin (while ALSA is the Plugin which is selected), I get an error message:  " Advanced Linux Sound Architecture: Could not open resource for reading." What's wrong, whyameye_ ?
[04:22] <Hotwired> "Unable to find source information for libtunepimp2c2a at /usr/bin/apt-build line 477." how do i fix that? i that apt-build should download the source packages
[04:22] <isheep> what app do i need for my ipod?
[04:22] <XVampireX> kikinovak, Hmm, I think I need capture in mic controls?
[04:22] <avis> isheep: amarok
[04:22] <Hotwired> isheep, amarok
[04:22] <isheep> thats the best one?
[04:22] <s_spiff> does anyone know how to add key's for repo's?
[04:22] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: not sure. try at command line sudo killall esd and then try it again...
[04:22] <BSoDirl> stuff like this makes me hate printers
[04:22] <kikinovak> XVampireX the rest is just playing around with your settings
[04:23] <BSoDirl> i probably need all the gnome-print stuff
[04:23] <BSoDirl> *sigh*
[04:23] <bigfoot1> esd: no process killed
[04:23] <kikinovak> BSoDirl what's your problem?
[04:23] <fuoco> i see that synaptics is used in ubuntu (for touchpad), but how do i configure it ?
[04:23] <sydtsai> My Network card won't work, unless I boot in windows and restart at first..... any clue?
[04:23] <Tommy2k4> when i boot up it tries to open sendmail even though ive apt-get remove sendmail, rm /etc/init.d/sendmail, update-rc.d sendmail remove
[04:23] <Tommy2k4> how can i stop it
[04:23] <Tommy2k4> it adds like a minute to bootup time
[04:23] <wastrel> hello
[04:23] <whyameye_> avis: when you type keys it doesn't show you key codes? Experiment with making the windows active.
[04:23] <BSoDirl> breezy(gnome) loved my printer, and dapper(xfce) doesnt even know wtf it is
[04:23] <XVampireX> kikinovak, In H, it says to enable capture I need to press 'Space' but when I do it, nothing happens.
[04:24] <avis> whyameye_: i did that.  no good.  nothing happened even when active.
[04:24] <BSoDirl> if it wasnt for dapper supporting direct rendering on my vid card, Id roll back
[04:24] <_nano_> Hi, does anyone here use Tapioca ?
[04:24] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: is this breezy?
[04:24] <kikinovak> BSoDirl is CUPS installed?
[04:24] <BSoDirl> um yeah
[04:24] <kikinovak> BSoDirl 'dpkg -l | grep -i cups'
[04:24] <whyameye_> avis: I guess it hates you. :-) Works on this side...
[04:24] <BSoDirl> cupsys hplip and all that crap
[04:24] <whyameye_> avis: are you in gnome? dapper?
[04:25] <kikinovak> BSoDirl 'lpstat -t'
[04:25] <BSoDirl> probably need the gnome printing stuff
[04:25] <BSoDirl> nothin
[04:25] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: nope. i am on dapper
[04:25] <avis> whyameye_: dapper gnome yes.  however this is a really old keyboard i love the way it types
[04:25] <kikinovak> XVampireX you still in alsamixer?
[04:25] <XVampireX> yes
[04:26] <avis> i might go get a multimedia keyboard though we have in our office and map things
[04:26] <kikinovak> XVampireX these are just the *volume* settings. This is not a recording app
[04:26] <yuval_> hi, I'm trying to install 6.06, but my radeon x800gto is being detected wrong by the installer and X tries to start with "ati" instead of "radeon" driver. after that the installation stops.
[04:26] <kikinovak> BSoDirl in a command line, type 'lpstat -t'... you must see something like 'scheduler is running'
[04:26] <XVampireX> I know
[04:26] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: I was asking becuase I couldn't find the multimedia selection in system on my dapper machine, but I distinctly remember it on the breezy machine. I wonder why I don't have this?
[04:26] <kikinovak> XVampireX so the next thing is to choose a recording app and play with it
[04:27] <BSoDirl> kikinovak: i saw that, but then it said "no system default destination"
[04:27] <kikinovak> XVampireX setting up headphones/mikes can be a major PITA... at least, use the right tool
[04:27] <BSoDirl> and then spammed "lpstat: no destinations added"
[04:27] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: system/preferences/multimedia systems selector
[04:27] <XVampireX> I'm confused
[04:28] <whyameye_> bigfoot1: yes...I don't have this under system/preferences...
[04:28] <kikinovak> BSoDirl '/etc/init.d/cupsys status'... what does that give?
[04:28] <burepe_> i got a dvd player with jumpy playback even though I have 512 mb of ram, any suggestions?
[04:28] <bigfoot1> whyameye_: oh
[04:28] <cwillu> I'm not sure how else to ask this, but...  is there any way to make flash audio playback to suck 100% usage under firefox?  (thinking pandora'ish sites)
[04:28] <cwillu> oops, to _not_ suck
[04:28] <BSoDirl> cupsd is running
[04:29] <BSoDirl> thats all it says
[04:29] <bigfoot1> guys, how can we configure our gstreamer plugin?
[04:29] <kikinovak> BSoDirl you familiar with setting up CUPSA
[04:29] <kikinovak> ?
[04:29] <kikinovak> CUPS?
[04:29] <BSoDirl> nah, is that the web thing?
[04:29] <BSoDirl> since RH7 I've never had a problem with CUPS and hp printers, so you can understand my frustration
[04:30] <BSoDirl> deskjets and cups just.... works typically.
[04:30] <kikinovak> BSoDirl google for "linux cookbook carla schroder"... chapter 14 is about CUPS... very well explained... it's a sample download from O'Reilly... grab the PDF and read it, and then you'll enjoy setting up your printer
[04:30] <bonsai> burepe_ turn on DMA for the dvd drive
[04:31] <kikinovak> BSoDirl I've just setup a printer server on Ubuntu Server:oD
[04:31] <BSoDirl> but... it worked in breezy :| *grrr*
[04:31] <burepe_> did it. I wasn't sure how to explain it.
[04:31] <BSoDirl> ...and rh, and mandrake..
[04:31] <burepe_> bonsai, I have it on. That is not the problem.
[04:31] <kikinovak> BSoDirl Also check for System > help > Ubuntu Server... there's a page about CUPS that looks well documented
[04:31] <avis> sometimes dma fails to get turned on ?
[04:31] <burepe_> !dma
[04:31] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[04:32] <kikinovak> BSoDirl I've always been a Slackware user before... where things *never* work out of the box... excellent school
[04:32] <BSoDirl> there is no system > help > ubuntu server, I'm on xubuntu
[04:32] <anosa> when i burn the packages in /var/cache/apt/archive to cd, is it possible to make the cd as a repository???
[04:32] <BSoDirl> kikinovak: freebsd/netbsd here, but they were easier than this crap
[04:32] <Tommy2k4> yes anosa
[04:32] <Tommy2k4> when i did a fresh install of kubuntu on a diff pc yesterday cd was already in the repos list
[04:33] <Tommy2k4> but i dont think it was when i installed it on this one o_o
[04:33] <kikinovak> BSoDirl ah you don't have the doc files installed. Well, they're all available on help.ubuntu.com.
[04:33] <avis> do sata drives use dma ?
[04:33] <BSoDirl> xubuntu doesnt come with the docs i dont think does it?
[04:33] <kikinovak> BSoDirl there's a peculiar default setup with Ubuntu's cupsd.conf. Listen is limited to localhost.
[04:33] <fuoco> how do i configure synaptics touchpad in ubuntu ?
 i burn it as data cd or what??
[04:33] <bigfoot1> guys, how can we edit or set up our ALSA settings? guys, how can we configure our gstreamer plugin?
[04:33] <BSoDirl> hmmm
[04:33] <kikinovak> BSoDirl best thing IMHO is start a new cupsd.conf from scratch.
[04:34] <Tommy2k4> no clue
[04:34] <kikinovak> BSoDirl go read the Cookbook Chapter... it's 10 pages, no more. And it teaches you everything you have to know about CUPS.
[04:36] <anosa> anyone, how to burn the packages to cd so i can use it as a repository???
[04:36] <BSoDirl> yknowim disappointed with dapper because of this :S
[04:36] <wastrel> hello
[04:36] <idefix> what are network socket semantics?
[04:37] <BSoDirl> *dapper xubuntu rather
[04:37] <kikinovak> BSoDirl take several glasses of whisky, indulge a bit in self-pitying... and tomorrow morning, learn about CUPS, and then be a man (or a woman?) and configure this thing by hand
[04:37] <kikinovak> :oD

[04:37] <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
[04:38] <dj_baggio> !wine
[04:38] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:38] <anosa> !easysource

[04:38] <BSoDirl> kikinovak: booze just makes everyone dumber...
[04:39] <ic56> idefix: "network socket semantics" refers to how the kernel implements networking.
[04:39] <snoops> BSoDirl except fictional cartoon characters (re - bender)
[04:40] <BSoDirl> i shouldnt 'have' to configure this by hand, it's a simple printer that has been 100% linux compatible sinxe 2001
[04:41] <BSoDirl> that I've never had to manually configure... ever
[04:42] <BSoDirl> I <3 ubuntu very much, but this is too much.
[04:42] <idefix> has anyone ever heard of www.errorsafe.com? is it recommendable to install ErrorSafe to check your computer for free?
[04:43] <FunnyLookinHat> BSoDirl, that's very weird that it isn't working for you like it used to.  Would you mind submitting a bug report ?
[04:43] <skavenge> bah
[04:44] <fuoco> does ubuntu support lvm/evms?
[04:44] <jrib> BSoDirl: you can probably run gnome-cups-manager from a command line in xubuntu which I think is the same thing you had in gnome before
[04:44] <s_spiff> has anyone tried installing bmpx?
[04:44] <skavenge> fuoco: yes
[04:45] <FunnyLookinHat> BSoDirl, I'm not gonna lie though, getting that printer working in regular ubuntu or kubuntu would probably be much easier, so please dont let this reflect on ubuntu as a whole  : )
[04:45] <FunnyLookinHat> lawl root
[04:45] <fuoco> skavenge: how do i do it ? there's some guide ?
[04:45] <skavenge> BSoDirl: yeah picking a more supported version than xubuntu may have been smarter
[04:45] <skavenge> !lvm
[04:45] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[04:45] <skavenge> fuoco: ^^
[04:46] <wastrel> getting printing working is always a pain in the azz in my experience
[04:46] <fuoco> but that's not specific to ubuntu, right ?
[04:46] <skavenge> yes it is
[04:46] <fuoco> tldp ?
[04:46] <idefix> ic56 so p files don't use network socket semantics and s files do?
[04:46] <skavenge> the wiki.ubuntu.com at least
[04:47] <BSoDirl> skevenge: I only got xubuntu because my kubuntu/ubuntu cds have taken 2 months to get here, and still arent here
[04:47] <skavenge> BSoDirl: so download them
[04:47] <Cyberai> can someone explain to me the basic difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu?
[04:47] <BSoDirl> d       i        a        l      u         p
[04:47] <fuoco> skavenge: but that's raid - i don't want raid. i just think maybe it's a good idea to install ubuntu on my laptop with lvm. no ?
[04:47] <BSoDirl> as Ive mentioned before.
[04:47] <skavenge> Cyberai: window manager, xubuntu runs xfce
[04:48] <Cyberai> oh
[04:48] <Cyberai> ok
[04:48] <BSoDirl> not 100% of linux users have cable
[04:48] <jrib> BSoDirl: did gnome-cups-manager work?
[04:48] <skavenge> fuoco: *shrug* I DONT USE IT ON MY LAPTOP
[04:48] <skavenge> woops caps my fault
[04:48] <BSoDirl> i just downloaded gnome-cups-manager
[04:48] <grand-sch> yep
[04:48] <BSoDirl> fixing to try it...
[04:48] <BSoDirl> i think this printer-hating crap is just an xubuntu thing
[04:48] <BSoDirl> brb
[04:48] <fuoco> not a good idea to use it on a laptop ?
[04:48] <wastrel> printer hating is universal in linux
[04:49] <bonsai> quite right
[04:49] <skavenge> BSoDirl: well good luck when you get those cds and need to do a 150 meg upgrade to become current then, heh
[04:49] <grand-sch> i, markc helped me a few ours ago.
[04:49] <jrib> I keep current on dialup, I just let the upgrades go while I sleep
[04:50] <grand-sch> now i have another problem with a boot from an alternative cd.iso
[04:50] <grand-sch> do someone have the courage to help me forward ,
[04:51] <skavenge> fuoco: i really havent looked into it, i suggest checking out ubuntuforums.org or wiki.ubuntu.com for instructions/help on it though
[04:51] <BSoDirl> i live with my sister who wastes power constantly
[04:51] <BSoDirl> and she claims "HIS COMPUTER WASTES POWER"
[04:51] <BSoDirl> so i get chewed for leaving it on overnight :|
[04:51] <kikinovak> wastrel why? learn to use CUPS, and printers work OK
[04:51] <kikinovak> BSoDirl sorry was away few min
[04:51] <kikinovak> anything new?
[04:52] <kikinovak> BSoDirl what printer btw?
[04:52] <wastrel> i suppose it depends on the printer
[04:52] <ic56> idefix: well, files for which ls -l lists a "p" filetype are named (p)ipes.  These are used for communicating between processes on the same system.  Ie no networking involved.  I'm not sure what an "s" file is but I'd guess it's socket.  Sockets are one of communication mechanisms for processes on different computers.  By definition, a socket has socket semantics.
[04:52] <^osh^> BSoDirl: Biggest powerdrain in a house is probably hottub/shower, after heating/cooling (depending on where you live)
[04:53] <sk4jvoker_> i have a prob with my video playback , the cpu usage always goes all the way to 100% ,
[04:53] <kikinovak> wastrel one of my jobs is testing printers under Linux for 'Linux Pratique', french magazine... so I know the question:oD
[04:53] <BSoDirl> ill be an s.o.b.
[04:53] <kikinovak> wastrel ever set up a HP multifunction on Slackware?
[04:53] <BSoDirl> in the xubuntu docs there's a manual config tutorial thats like 2 commands
[04:53] <BSoDirl> which they messed up the last one...
[04:54] <BSoDirl> but if you leave off the *.ppd file, it works :|
[04:54] <kikinovak> wastrel if not, then you don't know what real humiliation is about :oD
[04:54] <BSoDirl> aint that a bee, manually configured it like 10 seconds before gnome-cups-manager finished dl'ing

[04:56] <bronze> Anybody tried krugle yet?
[04:57] <bronze> Krugle aggregates the many and various open source software repositories (Sourceforge being just one of them), indexes them, and makes them easily, productively searchable.
[04:57] <bronze> So, if I know I need a utility to convert documents to PDFs, or need a special library to do X, Y, or Z, I can easily find it using Krugle.

[05:02] <idefix> is the standard root partition the same as the file system dir in Nautilus?
[05:03] <erUSUL> idefix: yes afaics
[05:03] <tanath> i'm trying to play a game, and it's saying it can't find the disc
[05:04] <tanath> i can browse it, but when i run the game it says there's no disc in the drive
[05:04] <mwe> what game?
[05:04] <jrib> !ask
[05:04] <tanath> diablo 2
[05:04] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:04] <tanath> jrib: i did
[05:04] <mwe> tanath: in wine?
[05:04] <tanath> yeah
[05:04] <tanath> the install went fine though
[05:04] <NthDegree> ok solution:
[05:05] <tanath> i just can't play it now
[05:05] <mwe> tanath: did you read a guide or something? I once read about having to use a no cd patch for a game
[05:05] <NthDegree> easy way to solve this is to mount the CD under a single mount point
[05:05] <NthDegree> manually mount the CD drive
[05:05] <tanath> mwe: no, i just popped the cd in, and followed the directions
[05:05] <mwe> sometimes it wont recognize it anyway
[05:05] <tanath> NthDegree: well, it's already mounted...
[05:06] <mwe> tanath: I doubt it will work. very few games actually work with wine
[05:06] <NthDegree> tanath, you using WINE or VMWare?
[05:06] <tanath> everytime i changed cds during install, i just browsed there with nautilus, and it detected it
[05:06] <tanath> NthDegree: wine
[05:06] <NthDegree> ah I know
[05:06] <tanath> mwe: i think i recall reading that d2 does...
[05:06] <mwe> tanath: maybe so
[05:06] <NthDegree> load up winecfg
[05:06] <tanath> but now, i browse there and it still doesn't detect it :/
[05:06] <NthDegree> then add the CD-ROM drive letter
[05:06] <Secsefirot> Hi
[05:07] <NthDegree> tanath, load winecfg
[05:07] <mwe> tanath: frankscorner.org has a list of a handful of working games
[05:07] <jrib> tanath: yeah, I seem to be lagging
[05:07] <NthDegree> mwe, you can get it to work
[05:07] <BSoDirl> nm that terminal config didn't work, but the 500k-1mbish download of gnome-cups-manager works great :|
[05:07] <Riyonuk> how do I install ubuntu? last time I just deleted the partition in windows and that GRUB mesed my boot.ini
[05:07] <BSoDirl> I shoulda tried that first.
[05:07] <mwe> I'm too lazy spending hours or days just getting a game to run
[05:08] <BSoDirl> what game?
[05:08] <mwe> he said
[05:08] <mwe> diablo 2
[05:08] <NthDegree> tanath, load winecfg, then add a D drive for your CD-ROM drive
[05:08] <BSoDirl> hehe diablo
[05:08] <NthDegree> then it should work
[05:08] <BSoDirl> i got that right beside me, but i forgot my cd key its on my cousins cd case
[05:08] <BSoDirl> and my other *creepy* cousin stole his cd
[05:08] <NthDegree> you have to run from drive D rather than your mountpoint on drive Z
[05:09] <Secsefirot> please get some suggestions witch kernelmodules are useful for USB scanprinters from HP
[05:09] <BSoDirl> dont you have to umount the cd during the install with diablo?
[05:09] <Boglizk> Whats the command for "Network Tools"?
[05:09] <mwe> Boglizk: huh?
[05:10] <BSoDirl> oh isnt that nmap or something?
[05:10] <DShepherd> what gstreamer0.8 plugin do I need to install to handle mp4 files?
[05:10] <tanath> NthDegree: still not working
[05:10] <DShepherd> gnomebaker screaming about it
[05:10] <BSoDirl> DShepherd: gstreamer0.8-aac i think
[05:10] <DShepherd> BSoDirl: ok thanks
[05:10] <BSoDirl> not sure check synaptic
[05:10] <NthDegree> tanath, some games use copy protection that requires exclusive access to the CD drive
[05:10] <BSoDirl> *nods*
[05:11] <tanath> NthDegree: why wouldn't it have it?
[05:11] <BSoDirl> you could always try cedega :)
[05:11] <Boglizk> Where is the gnomes menu-file?
[05:11] <NthDegree> only software that allows that is VMWare Player, Workstation or ACE (Server doesn have the xclusive access features)
[05:11] <mwe> cedega can't run any games I play
[05:11] <NthDegree> tanath because WINE is a layer on top of linux not linux itself
[05:11] <BSoDirl> the one mmorpg this system can run (Ultima Online) is fine in wine and cedega
[05:12] <NthDegree> VMWare uses modules to control things, WINE doesn
[05:12] <BSoDirl> but in wine my mouse drags just enough to bother me
[05:12] <tanath> NthDegree: i tried mounting manually... still no
[05:12] <BSoDirl> like a fraction of a millisecond
[05:12] <mwe> vmware is useless for games
[05:12] <Harkins> Is there any way to get attention to a two-month-old crashing bug?
[05:12] <NthDegree> mwe, not true if you enable the experimental support
[05:12] <local> hola
[05:12] <BSoDirl> the new wine is flawless with sound on that game though, 99% as good as cedega overall
[05:12] <local> hola
[05:12] <tanath> NthDegree: so what should i do?
[05:12] <mwe> NthDegree: experimental yes. have you even tried it?
[05:13] <NthDegree> yes mwe and it works fine for me
[05:13] <mwe> NthDegree: it doesn't make my games run at least
[05:13] <BSoDirl> but i like the auto-mount/umount in cedega
[05:13] <Tommy2k4> when i boot up it tries to open sendmail even though ive apt-get remove sendmail, rm /etc/init.d/sendmail, update-rc.d sendmail remove
[05:13] <Tommy2k4> how can i stop it
[05:13] <Schamane> hi
[05:13] <Riyonuk> I asked this earlier, but go no response. How do I uninstall ubuntu? last time I just deleted the partition in windows and that GRUB mesed my boot.ini
[05:13] <mwe> NthDegree: and doesn't support directX9 which excludes my games
[05:13] <BSoDirl> you said 'install' earlier.
[05:13] <Riyonuk> I changed it :p
[05:13] <Riyonuk> mistake
[05:13] <BSoDirl> hehe
[05:14] <tanath> Tommy2k4: make sure it's not in your startup programs in System > Prefs > Sessions
[05:14] <NthDegree> cedega is rubbish IMO any game that cedega runs, runs better on both WineX (Cedega CVS version) and the much better WINE
[05:14] <BSoDirl> i think you can just delete it and type "fdisk /mbr" in win
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Riyonuk: Next time delete the partition and fdisk /mbr to fix windows
[05:14] <BSoDirl> lol i was right for once
[05:14] <Schamane> someones able to tell me how i can add my wlan0 device in knetworkmanager? it ignores my wlan0 device
[05:14] <BSoDirl> that dont happen much..
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !fdisk
[05:14] <ubotu> I know nothing about fdisk - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:14] <tanath> NthDegree: cedega does some things wine doesn't
[05:14] <DShepherd> BSoDirl: gstreamer0.8-faad maybe?
[05:14] <Riyonuk> um by delete "it" you mean delte the partion? And fdsik /mbr? cmd?
[05:14] <tanath> and wine some cedega doesn't
[05:14] <BSoDirl> NthDegree: last time I tried to download the cvs, it was broke so I just "bootlegged" it
[05:15] <BSoDirl> i didnt say that, you never saw me, I've not been here all day.
[05:15] <NthDegree> BSoDirl, you need the old versions of gcc to compile it
[05:15] <DShepherd> BSoDirl: do I need to register it or something like that?
[05:15] <BSoDirl> not compile it, just get it to download
[05:15] <mwe> and none of them allows me to play civ4 without breakageness
[05:15] <BSoDirl> it froze while downloading a 2kb text file
[05:15] <BSoDirl> DShepherd: i didnt register, but they could be *watching*
[05:15] <Riyonuk> fdisk in ubuntu or windows?
[05:16] <NthDegree> cedega can run some copy-protected games but that is it :)
[05:16] <BSoDirl> Riyonuk: C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe
[05:16] <BSoDirl> :)
[05:16] <Riyonuk> yes Im there
[05:16] <Riyonuk> fdisk in not a command
[05:16] <BSoDirl> fdisk /mbr
[05:16] <BSoDirl> then reboot
[05:16] <mwe> um arent most games copy protected?
[05:16] <BSoDirl> which version of windows? it works on win2k and xp i think
[05:16] <tanath> aha
[05:16] <Tommy2k4> tanath, i use kde and i cant find that
[05:16] <BSoDirl> mwe: diablo is :(
[05:16] <Riyonuk> 'fdisk' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
[05:16] <Riyonuk> operable program or batch file.
[05:17] <tanath> i was trying to run the shortcut on the desktop. when i run the exe in nautilus, it comes up fine
[05:17] <tanath> odd
[05:17] <BSoDirl> omg, that is SO lame
[05:17] <mwe> BSoDirl: In fact I don't have any games that are not
[05:17] <NthDegree> you are in the 19th century
[05:17] <BSoDirl> worked last time I used windows *months ago*
[05:17] <NthDegree> windows 2000/XP has no fdisk
[05:17] <NthDegree> it is called diskpart
[05:17] <tanath> Tommy2k4: oh, that's for gnome. nvm. try the control center or something
[05:17] <Riyonuk> -_-
[05:17] <TeemuR> is there virtual drive software available for linux like alcohol 120% is for windows?
[05:17] <NthDegree> and it is hard to use :p
[05:17] <tanath> bah
[05:17] <Tommy2k4> im there but i dont see anything about sessions
[05:17] <BSoDirl> NthDegree: flaming aside, ty I'll let the next windows user I find know that.
[05:17] <Riyonuk> so I cant uninstall it then?
[05:17] <tanath> still can't play though. after i click play it says it can't find the disc again
[05:17] <tanath> blargh!
[05:18] <BSoDirl> tanath: manually mount the drive
[05:18] <mwe> tanath: that's the reason most of us still keep windows around
[05:18] <NthDegree> TeemuR I believe that you can mount iso files to a mount point
[05:18] <Tommy2k4> ##windows
[05:18] <tanath> BSoDirl: i did
[05:18] <NthDegree> like alcohol120%
[05:18] <BSoDirl> erm, my fault
[05:18] <tanath> mwe: not me
[05:18] <TeemuR> oh ok
[05:18] <mwe> tanath: then ditch your favorite games
[05:19] <dinamizador> #guadalinfo
[05:19] <BSoDirl> I wish some rich benefactor would put mad $$ behind wine development to bury MS lol
[05:19] <dinamizador> # guadalinfo
[05:19] <mwe> tanath: unless frozen bubbles is your favorite
[05:19] <dinamizador> echo guadalinfo
[05:19] <BSoDirl> on the cedega page it says "Star Wars Galaxies runs in Cedega flawless"
[05:19] <mwe> just put massive $$ behind native linux ports instead
[05:19] <BSoDirl> somehow I doubt that.
[05:19] <stefg> !offtopic
[05:19] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:19] <tanath> mwe: i mostly play ps2 anyway :P but i know you can play many games on linux... and i'd like to know how to fix these problems so i can help others
[05:20] <NthDegree> M$ is going backwards (DOS 1.0 to DOS 4.0 used Diskpart and chkdsk, then diskpart got superseded by fdisk and chkdsk by scandisk, now scandisk and fdisk are no more) :|
[05:20] <BSoDirl> :| indeed
[05:20] <Riyonuk> :p
[05:20] <findeton> hi
[05:20] <mwe> tanath: good for you :) frankly only a tiny fraction of all games work in linux, sadly
[05:20] <NthDegree> tanath, there are many *LINUX* games
[05:20] <BSoDirl> so, wine users have any of you tried 0.9.17 in dapper yet?
[05:20] <findeton> what the hell...? adept was installing sth but it has stopped. when i click 'show deatails' it appears a window of a console with the installing program of java sun asking for input to 'accept' the license
[05:20] <NthDegree> most of my games have linux clients :D
[05:20] <tanath> NthDegree: yeh, i have a bunch, but most ppl want to play other games that work in windows...
[05:21] <knapper_> Hey guys, I have a friend who is a windows user and wants to switch to ubuntu, where should I send him (websites)
[05:21] <tanath> NthDegree: so i'd still like to know how to get 'em working
[05:21] <mwe> tanath: but considering there are millions of games even 1% would be alot ;)
[05:21] <knapper_> ?

[05:22] <findeton> jaja eso
[05:22] <knapper_> I was thinking more along the lines of a wiki
[05:22] <findeton> :p
[05:22] <tanath> knapper_: what's he use his computer for?
[05:22] <bad_boys12> no no
[05:22] <BSoDirl> wiki.ubuntu.com :)
[05:22] <knapper_> like 'new ubuntu users' wiki

[05:22] <knapper_> you know...
[05:22] <trappist> NthDegree: don't forget about cedega

[05:22] <findeton> i'm on ubuntu dapper adept was installing sth but it has stopped. when i click 'show deatails' it appears a window of a console with the installing program of java sun asking for input to 'accept' the license but whatever i press (enter, intro, space...) it doesn't change
[05:22] <findeton> plz help
[05:23] <findeton> what may i do?
[05:23] <NthDegree> trappist, every game that I have played in cedega works on WINE and every game that fails to play on cedega usually plays on WINE very badly
[05:23] <BSoDirl> findeton: scroll down first
[05:23] <tanath> diablo 2 is an old game. i would think it would work fine by now...
[05:23] <NthDegree> cedega is not worth the money
[05:23] <findeton> how
[05:23] <BSoDirl> who paid for cedega? :>
[05:23] <findeton> BSoDirl how?
[05:23] <findeton> i cannot
[05:23] <NthDegree> tanath it uses proprietary copy protection software
[05:23] <trappist> NthDegree: you're crazy!  it's some of the best money I've ever spent, and it's cheap
[05:23] <mwe> tanath: if you work hard at it you may get it to work
[05:23] <findeton> it's an embebbed window
[05:23] <BSoDirl> aha
[05:24] <findeton> and i think i cannot send any input :p
[05:24] <trappist> NthDegree: my game is civ3.  no go in wine.
[05:24] <BSoDirl> i was thinking it was some gui installer that requires you to 'read' the license
[05:24] <jbower> hello all in need to know how do i get Installed kernel source match running kernel
[05:24] <BSoDirl> my mistake
[05:24] <Lllama> afternoon all. I'm having trouble getting totem to run. Don't know whether it's because I'm running in vmware but it won't start as it 'cannot connect to the sound server'. Anyone have this problem or know what could be the problem?
[05:24] <findeton> it's inside the dapper program
[05:24] <dinamizador> #guadalinfo
[05:24] <tanath> many others have gotten it working, and i recall getting it (mostly) working before...
[05:24] <mwe> tanath: I'd google for a guide
[05:24] <tanath> (on debian though)
[05:24] <NthDegree> trappist, usually i spend 15 minutes hacking my games to get them in WINE
[05:24] <dinamizador> # guadalinfo
[05:24] <BSoDirl> whats the cedega current anyway?
[05:24] <tanath> i would think someone in here would know :/
[05:24] <BSoDirl> i got like 5.2.1
[05:24] <dinamizador> guadalinfo
[05:24] <NthDegree> 5.2
[05:24] <BSoDirl> ooh
[05:24] <NthDegree> Pirate Bay rocks :p
[05:24] <BSoDirl> im glad someone slipped me that URL
[05:25] <BSoDirl> lol ftp server here
[05:25] <stefg> BSoDirl, NthDegree , findeton would you mind taking that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:25] <mwe> tanath: how long did it take to get it to almost work?
[05:25] <tanath> i don't really have much time to mess with it right now. i don't even intend to play at the moment, just see if it'll work
[05:25] <BSoDirl> stefg: not to be rude, but I was referring to wine+ubuntu
[05:25] <tanath> mwe: uh, like a week i think :P
[05:25] <sorush20> guys loading deriver modules is taking a very long time could anyone here tell me about how to change this?
[05:25] <BSoDirl> the .deb package
[05:25] <tanath> mwe: off and on
[05:25] <mwe> tanath: lol
[05:25] <NthDegree> brb
[05:25] <mwe> tanath: my life is too short for that
[05:26] <tanath> it would get to the intro cinematics, then after that it would always be a blank screen
[05:26] <findeton> i've stopped dapper :p  i think i must now do the 'commit' command although i don't know which command is it
[05:26] <phaedrus44> has anyone setup a web server with ubuntu?
[05:26] <mwe> tanath: haha so the actual game didn't even start?
[05:26] <tanath> no
[05:26] <stefg> !lamp
[05:26] <mwe> lol
[05:26] <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
[05:27] <tanath> it was apparently at the main screen. it played the sound, but i couldn't see or do anything
[05:27] <BSoDirl> Im glad dapper has direct rendering for my old onboard video
[05:27] <mwe> tanath: work a few months on it and you might get to work :)
[05:27] <tanath> :P
[05:27] <BSoDirl> that'll make tinkering with 3d engines bearable til I can get my shiny new geforce
[05:27] <tanath> i was hoping to find someone who's gotten it working already
[05:27] <mwe> tanath: yeah
[05:27] <BSoDirl> theres a #cedega around here, but i dunno if anyone is there
[05:28] <BSoDirl> just dont mention .torrents lol
[05:28] <sorush20> my computer freezes .. how do I check waht is wrong.?
[05:28] <tanath> they wouldn't help... i'm using wine :P
[05:28] <phaedrus44> thanks ubotu ...should i log in as root to do it?  or just do it with sudo?
[05:28] <BSoDirl> ahh
[05:28] <findeton> i've stopped dapper :p  i think i must now do the 'commit' command although i don't know which command is it
[05:28] <findeton> i'm on ubuntu dapper adept was installing sth but it has stopped. when i click 'show deatails' it appears a window of a console with the installing program of java sun asking for input to 'accept' the license but whatever i press (enter, intro, space...) it doesn't change
[05:28] <stefg> sorush20: when does it freeze? at bott time or randomly?
[05:28] <tanath> ubotu is a bot
[05:28] <BSoDirl> gee someone pastes a lot ^
[05:28] <tanath> he was replying to stefg
[05:29] <mwe> tanath: did you read this: http://www.frankscorner.org/index.php?p=diablo2 ?
[05:29] <sorush20> randomly just after I;'m about to load a new tab in konqueror or I'm scrolling in a tab in konqueror
[05:29] <mwe> tanath: seems you should use a crack
[05:29] <BSoDirl> sorush20: it just hangs up hardcore?
[05:29] <stefg> sorush20: bad ram? too hot?
[05:30] <sorush20> stefg: how do I check the ram ?
[05:30] <idefix> cd the hd of hda1 or hdb2 or hdc doesn't stand for harddisk but for h.. dev or something
[05:30] <BSoDirl> mwe: notice the ver. # is 2003-ish
[05:30] <stefg> there's a memtest option in the boot menu
[05:30] <tanath> mwe: i'll try that. thx
[05:30] <mwe> BSoDirl: yes. maybe it will work with a newer version as well
[05:30] <stefg> sorush20: but let that run overnight... asingle pass isn't that reliable
[05:30] <tanath> if not, i give up for now
[05:30] <mwe> yeah
[05:31] <BSoDirl> mwe: I tried to install it with 0.9.17, but i forgot that i lost my cd key
[05:31] <sorush20> there seems to be two temp.. one is 37.o degrees and the other is 54 degrees? is it too hot?
[05:32] <_nano_> Hi, could anyone suggest a good quality open source app for voice conferencing with multiple parties?
[05:32] <joeljkp> is there any way to turn off entrance and exit notices on irc?
[05:32] <stefg> sorush20: no, that should be fine
[05:32] <joeljkp> using xchat-gnome
[05:32] <mwe> sorush20: what is 54 degrees?
[05:32] <tanath> mwe: that guide is for and older patch version. blizzard now offers 1.11b
[05:32] <BSoDirl> _nano_ I hear skype is good
[05:32] <tanath> i doubt it'll work
[05:32] <mwe> tanath: hmm
[05:32] <tanath> i think i recall it not working
[05:32] <_nano_> BSoDirl, i meant open source
[05:32] <sorush20> centigrade
[05:33] <Colloid> I'm wondering how I would go about hooking up two network cards to my linux (ubuntu-6.06-server) box and run an internet connection seemlessly "through" it
[05:33] <_nano_> BSoDirl, and skype (though i haven't used it) linux version has a lot of problems
[05:33] <mwe> sorush20: what part is 54 degrees hot?
[05:33] <BSoDirl> i thought skype was open-source :S
[05:33] <BSoDirl> hence "i hear"
[05:34] <mrbrdo> hello, i don't seem to have set the root password, now i can't SU
[05:34] <stefg> !root
[05:34] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:34] <mrbrdo> the installation just didn't ask me for it, as far as i can remember
[05:34] <sorush20> loading up hardware drivers.. takes too long what can i do?
[05:34] <kallei> Im trying to install VMware but the installation wont work. I'm running a compiled vanilla kernel, do i need to install vmware in some special way then?
[05:34] <mrbrdo> what about the root password?
[05:34] <_nano_> BSoDirl, no skype is not open source
[05:34] <mrbrdo> surely i have to know it..
[05:34] <Bazzi> kallei: you just need to install it normally usually
[05:35] <stefg> kallei: prolly you didn't compile the vmware kernel modules
[05:35] <tanath> mwe: found the older patch :)
[05:35] <mrbrdo> stefg: does that mean i will never know the root password? i have to sudo all the time?
[05:35] <kallei> stefg:  the what?  is it something i should have done when compiling the kernel?
[05:35] <trappist> mrbrdo: that's the idea
[05:35] <jbower> could some one tell me how to install kernel source match running kernel, i'm now using linux-image-2.6.15-26-386 2.6.15-26.45. i'm looking for this so i can build rt2x00 drivers a get around a ndis ubuntu bug.
[05:36] <wastrel> bye now
[05:36] <trappist> mrbrdo: more accurately, there *is* no root password.
[05:36] <mwe> tanath: good luck. let me know if it works. might install it as well if it does
[05:36] <stefg> mrbrdo: there is no spoon ...errr... root-passwd...
[05:36] <mrbrdo> trappist: so there is no way to login to root?
[05:36] <trappist> jbower: usually you just need kernel headers to build drivers - apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[05:36] <brotakul> i have a problem with amule. when i try to add a server list it crashes on downloadind the list. i tried different serverlists, but it still crashes.
[05:36] <BSoDirl> sudo passwd root && su
[05:36] <trappist> mrbrdo: you could say something like 'sudo su -', but that's discouraged
[05:37] <BSoDirl> that oughta set it
[05:37] <mrbrdo> ah ok thanks :)
[05:37] <stefg> kallei: yup, vmplayer needs kernel-modules, which hat to fit the kernel running
[05:37] <trappist> BSoDirl: and it defeats the whole purpose of eliminating the root login
[05:37] <BSoDirl> i would die having to type 'sudo' before everything
[05:37] <stefg> hat == have
[05:37] <BSoDirl> trappist: two words, system administration.
[05:37] <jbower> trappist the rt2x00 driver need per README,	# Kernel source requirements:
[05:37] <jbower> 	#	- Installed kernel source match running kernel
[05:37] <jbower> 	#	- GCC version used to compile running kernel was also used
[05:37] <jbower> 	#	  to compile modules.
[05:37] <mwe> BSoDirl: then type sudo -i to get a root prompt instead
[05:37] <trappist> BSoDirl: I administer dozens of boxes for which I don't know the root password.
[05:37] <phunkalicious> or you could just increase the time your sudo privileges last :/
[05:37] <jbower> just the headers do not work
[05:37] <kallei> stefg:  how do i compile and install that ?
[05:37] <jaek> i'm running edgy and gnome-terminal keeps on resizing itself when i switch between tabs... anyone know a fix?
[05:37] <phunkalicious> i mean once you type sudo it should last for like 3 minutes :|
[05:38] <brotakul> i have a problem with amule. when i try to add a server list it crashes on downloadind the list. i tried different serverlists, but it still crashes.
[05:38] <BSoDirl> but 'su' is faster for what I do.
[05:38] <findeton> hey
[05:38] <BSoDirl> tomato, tomahto
[05:38] <idefix> so which of the dclsp-files are executable?
[05:38] <stefg> kallei: just use the stock-kernel...
[05:38] <mwe> phunkalicious: sudo -i gives you a root login
[05:38] <skavenge> 'sudo -i' is the reccomended way to get a root shell but haven forbid people read documentation
[05:38] <jbower> sudo su -
[05:38] <phunkalicious> yes, i'm well aware of this
[05:38] <findeton> now i have already installed sun's jre, how can i replace gij with javac ?
[05:38] <trappist> jbower: whatever the docs say, kernel headers are almost always what you need.  but, to get the full source, apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
[05:38] <cpt_haddock> hey how can i permanently edit my path environment
[05:38] <mwe> jbower: no sudo -i is the recommended way
[05:38] <BSoDirl> that shows you have much I use 'sudo' :S
[05:39] <jbower> thank you
[05:39] <trappist> cpt_haddock: export PATH=$PATH:/new/path/element  <-- in your ~/.bashrc
[05:40] <cpt_haddock> Trappist:hey thnx i'll try
[05:40] <mwe> trappist: will that get all the patches as well?
[05:40] <trappist> yep
[05:40] <mwe> great i was looking for them
[05:43] <tanath> mwe: still no

[05:43] <mwe> tanath: ugh
[05:44] <fuoco> can i use the bcm43xx driver from the livecd ?
[05:44] <sorush20> I'm not sure what temp is which..
[05:44] <mwe> tanath: don't forget to manually kill the winserver as well. you probably need to
[05:44] <TeemuR> how could i enable 3d accelaration in ubuntu i have an ati radeon 9550 card with 256 mb memory the official ati drivers don't help
[05:44] <erUSUL> !ati
[05:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:45] <ardchoille> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2006-July/000164.html
[05:45] <skavenge> fuoco: you have to install the firmware and fiddle alot
[05:45] <BSoDirl> dri.freedesktop.org has all that too
[05:45] <sebest> hello anyone using vserver on dapper?
[05:45] <fuoco> skavenge: it's easier once installed ?
[05:45] <kallei> stefg: do you have a link or something showing how I build the kernel modules?
[05:45] <BSoDirl> assuming youre in dapper, they removed the xorg version that breezy uses
[05:45] <skavenge> fuoco: no heh
[05:45] <sorush20> I think the cooler temp is my motherboard and the higher temp is my cpu..
[05:45] <fuoco> why not ?
[05:46] <skavenge> fuoco: broadcom's and linux dont like each other, i think the kernel driver sucks personally i used ndiswrapper on mine bcm43xx chipset nic
[05:46] <mwe> sorush20: 54 degrees for the cpu is not critical
[05:46] <mwe> sorush20: somewhat high though
[05:46] <burepe> I keep getting weird errors trying to play a dvd, It is Japanese. Some stuff about encryption. I thought I have all the right codecs. Any suggestions?

[05:47] <Zambezi> Someone here who use gmail? I got four emails yesterday about "your resume". Someone more who got that spam? This is the first time I got spam on gmail.
[05:47] <tanath> :(
[05:47] <mwe> Zambezi: I didn't
[05:47] <BSoDirl> Zambezi: me neither
[05:47] <tanath> i could get quite a few people using ubuntu if i could get stuff like this working
[05:47] <skavenge> burepe: may need to set region code if its from japan, its on the restricted formats page under playing encrypted dvds
[05:47] <BSoDirl> I just have the u.s. communist party spamming me
[05:48] <BSoDirl> :(
[05:48] <burepe> cool
[05:48] <tanath> what kind of sites do you visit? lol. i get viagara spam :P
[05:48] <Zambezi> mwe, BSoDirl I get curious what it is. On my mail email I get about 20 spams/day so I always erase English email directly.
[05:48] <tanath> not that i browse porn :P
[05:49] <Enverex> Does anyone know how the Karma on Launchpad works? Is it automatically given or is it assigned by people?
[05:49] <mwe> tanath: even my mom gets viagra spam. I doubt she ever visited any pr0n sites even
[05:49] <BSoDirl> Zambezi: like two people spam me, cpusa and tracfone
[05:49] <BSoDirl> and i delete everything they send me
[05:49] <burepe> gmail gets all my spam
[05:49] <Zambezi> tanath, When I was younger I always downloaded porn on websites. :-P
[05:50] <tanath> yeh, gmail catches 99% of my spam
[05:50] <idefix> if cdrom links and initrd, java, media, srv, sys dirs appear  appears in your File System did you do something wrong?
[05:50] <burepe> word to gmail. you can download porn and not get spam
[05:50] <Zambezi> tanath, Proabably is that the reason.
[05:50] <BSoDirl> oh wait, I forgot about the peace corps
[05:50] <idefix> if cdrom links and initrd, java, media, srv, sys dirs appear in your File System did you do something wrong?
[05:50] <dsd> hi
[05:51] <tanath> idefix: they should be somewhere in your file system... :P
[05:51] <dsd> I set some xterm-settings in .Xdefaults, but they do not seem to affect xterm at all.
[05:51] <tanath> but then, everything's a file...
[05:51] <idefix> tenath but according to http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_intro/sect_03_01.html they're not supposed to be there int he first place?!
[05:51] <Zambezi> I get spams about eretcil dysfunction, medicine like Viagra, Cialis, pharmacy, HiRoll, Vegas.
[05:52] <kouwe> is it possible to put thunderbird in the tray?
[05:52] <tanath> heh
[05:52] <dsd> it worked just after i set them but after rebooting it seemed that .Xdefaults does not exist.
[05:52] <idefix> tanath but according to http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_intro/sect_03_01.html they're not supposed to be there int he first place?! (3/4 of the page)
[05:52] <BSoDirl> here we go, diablo+wine/cedega attempt
[05:52] <BSoDirl> *crosses fingers*
[05:52] <mwe> kouwe: you can use mail-notification
[05:52] <dsd> ... seemed as if it didn't exist...
[05:52] <tanath> idefix: it was a half-joke
[05:52] <tanath> not quite sure what you mean
[05:52] <kouwe> mwe: and what is that, a program?
[05:52] <mwe> kouwe: it doesn't put thunderbird there but notifies you of new mail and can launch tb for you when you click it
[05:53] <kouwe> mwe: ok, apt-getting :) thnx
[05:53] <BSoDirl> theres one for gmail too
[05:53] <BSoDirl> called umm * looks *
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> where is the theme folder?
[05:53] <mwe> BSoDirl: I use the same one for that
[05:53] <dsd> can someone help me?
[05:53] <BSoDirl> mwe: the perl one? it rocks
[05:53] <phaedrus44> do i enable root account by doing    sudo passwd root  ?
[05:53] <bonsai> Jack_Sparrow, not sure but if you open the theme manager there's a button "go to folder"
[05:53] <BSoDirl> 'checkgmail' :)
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[05:54] <phaedrus44> where do i put in roots passwd?
[05:54] <wildman> !root > phaedrus44
[05:54] <mwe> phaedrus44: you don't
[05:54] <erUSUL> !root > phaedrus44
[05:54] <tritium> phaedrus44: try using sudo instead
[05:54] <idefix> tanath, ok you install linux and later on install all sorts of programs but aren't the files of these programs supposed to appear in some sub dir somewhere?
[05:54] <phaedrus44> i want to enable root account...setting up server
[05:54] <mwe> phaedrus44: type sudo -i and your user password if you need a root prompt
[05:55] <mwe> phaedrus44: please read what ubotu /msg'ed you
[05:55] <mwe> phaedrus44: it will tell you how to do it and why it's not recommended
[05:55] <phaedrus44> i want to enable a root account..i am familiar with sudo
[05:55] <idefix> tanath isn't the file system supposed to stay clear, or something?
[05:55] <tritium> phaedrus44: then sudo passwd root, as you said earlier
[05:55] <ardchoille> phaedrus44: You can set up a server using sudo, it's better than enabling a root account. When someone breaks in, they know you have a root account and can try brute force attacks. If the root account is disabled, they can't break into it.
[05:56] <mwe> phaedrus44: appaerently not or you would know. please read the /msg like I told you
[05:56] <dsd> hi
[05:56] <idefix> tanath!
[05:56] <phaedrus44> thanks ardchoille  very helpful  ...i guess ill set the whole ting up with sudo
[05:56] <phaedrus44> thanks mwe also
[05:56] <phaedrus44>  and ubotu
[05:56] <brutopia> is there something to be done for latency with kde on kubuntu
[05:56] <brutopia> everything lags a bit
[05:56] <tritium> phaedrus44: that's a good plan
[05:56] <mwe> phaedrus44: sudo -i will give you a root login
[05:57] <brutopia> in windows every menu and such comes out instantly
[05:57] <phaedrus44> ok cool..
[05:57] <Tommy2k4> when i boot up it tries to open sendmail even though ive apt-get remove sendmail, rm /etc/init.d/sendmail, update-rc.d sendmail remove
[05:57] <Tommy2k4> how can i stop it cos it adds over a minute to bootup time
[05:57] <dsd> hmm...
[05:57] <idefix> tanath, so you're here on X-chat just to crack jokes?
[05:57] <erUSUL> Tommy2k4: update-rc.d -f sendmail remove
[05:57] <EdsipeR> where can I get a udev ubuntu package?
[05:58] <mwe> brutopia: it doesn't lag here but I think kde demands more cpu power to feel as smooth
[05:58] <frogzoo> brutopia: how much mem u got?
[05:58] <ardchoille> HedgeMage: :D
[05:58] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: you should have it instaled
[05:58] <mwe> brutopia: oh yes ram as well >=256 MB I'd say
[05:58] <Tommy2k4> already did that erUSUL
[05:58] <HedgeMage> hiya ardchoille :D
[05:58] <ardchoille> :)
[05:58] <WoodsDog> where do i set the default editor in ubuntu?
[05:59] <mwe> WoodsDog: export EDITOR=whatever in ~/.bashrc
[05:59] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, I can't use the lastest kernel 2.6.17, my ubuntu is 6.06 and udev version it's so old
[05:59] <frogzoo> WoodsDog: in .gnomerc - set EDITOR
[05:59] <tritium> EdsipeR: it's installed autmatically, as the system needs it
[05:59] <mwe> WoodsDog: or /etc/profile for site wise
[05:59] <erUSUL> System> preferences>
[05:59] <WoodsDog> thanks mwe
[06:00] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: i'm using 2.6.18-rc2 without udev problems
[06:00] <Tommy2k4> erUSUL: <Zerberus> AFAIK ubuntu has a strange setup to call sendmail start somewhere in the network scripts
[06:00] <erUSUL> Tommy2k4: with the -f switch?
[06:00] <Tommy2k4> you think that could be it?
[06:00] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, when I try to boot my kernel can't find root file system
[06:00] <bobovski> hi all
[06:01] <bobovski> can anyone help me with a firefox/flash plugin issue?
[06:01] <mwe> bobovski: what's the issue?
[06:01] <tritium> EdsipeR: did you compile support for your root FS into the kernel (e.g., not a module)?
[06:01] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: did you configured filesystems and the mkinitrd correctly?
[06:01] <phaedrus44> can the server install have fluxbox installed with it?
[06:01] <bobovski> mwe: flash plays fine, except no sound
[06:01] <kouwe> !automatix
[06:01] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[06:01] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: which instruccions did you followed when compiling?
[06:02] <EdsipeR> tritium, I'm using ext3 fs buildin , not module
[06:02] <mwe> bobovski: search the forums the are several threads about. basically use aoss iirc
[06:02] <bobovski> mwe: had problems even getting flash to work this morning...just suddenly. it was fine then broken
[06:02] <bobovski> aoss?
[06:02] <Q3Man> I'm trying to install 6.06 to a 1gb CF card and I'm having partitioning difficulties. Using default installation options and auto-partitioning, I get the error "The attempt to mount a file system with target type swap in IDE2 master parrtition 5 (hdc5) at none failed". Debian installs/partitions fine on the same drive. Anything I can try checking?
[06:02] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, I run update-initramfs and it generate the initrd image
[06:02] <dsd> hi
[06:02] <mwe> bobovski: it's explained. it's the sound system used
[06:02] <tritium> EdsipeR: well, something else is wrong then, but not likely udev
[06:02] <bonsai> bobovski, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=199289&
[06:02] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: and the grub stanza? have you checked it?
[06:03] <bobovski> mwe: is there a reason I'd be not getting sound only in flash player?
[06:03] <mwe> bobovski: search for 'flash sound' on the forums
[06:03] <dsd> My .Xdefaults settings do not seem to take any effect on my client-applications (xterm in particular).
[06:03] <mwe> bobovski: yes
[06:03] <bobovski> mwe: all the other programs that use sound work just fine
[06:03] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, initrd path it's correctly, root=/dev/hda2 ro
[06:03] <bobovski> ok, let me take a look here
[06:03] <dsd> Before I rebootet, it worked perfectly well...
[06:03] <mwe> bobovski: it's common
[06:03] <BSoDirl> you folks have fun *waves*
[06:03] <mwe> bobovski: please search for 'flash sound' on the forums
[06:04] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, I'm getting this error: begin: waiting for root file system
[06:04] <kouwe> is it possible to set xchat in the tray?
[06:04] <tritium> EdsipeR: why do you need an updated kernel?

[06:04] <kouwe> ok  :)
[06:05] <burepe> I have twice the memory of my last computer and the dvd playback is choppy as hell. I have drm enabled too.
[06:05] <dsd> xchat-gnome sucks, btw.
[06:05] <beasty> lol
[06:05] <beasty> use irssi
[06:05] <tritium> burepe: dma, you mean?  ;)
[06:05] <mwe> burepe: 64bit?
[06:05] <burepe> yaeh
[06:05] <burepe> no\
[06:05] <mwe> burepe: it's common
[06:05] <burepe> really why
[06:05] <beasty> bad codecs
[06:05] <mwe> burepe: because the 64bit version is not mature
[06:06] <burepe> it is not 64
[06:06] <burepe> yeah was to dma
[06:06] <mwe> burepe: thought you said yes to that
[06:06] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: well i do not know what else can it be. i use the "vanilla way" of compiling kernels and never had any problem. make && make modules && make modules_install && make install. then mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.1x.y 2.6.1x.y and finally update-grub
[06:06] <EdsipeR> tritium, I have years compiling my kernel, but some days ago I buy it a laptop and this it's the first time that I see this error
[06:06] <burepe> should the dvd use 100 of the processor?
[06:06] <mwe> burepe: but is dma on for the drive then?
[06:07] <burepe> yeah
[06:07] <tritium> EdsipeR: yes, but it is necessary?
[06:07] <mwe> I don't know then
[06:07] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: maybe you forgot drivers for sata (libata) or something
[06:07] <EdsipeR> tritium, yes, my laptop sometimes comes very slowly
[06:07] <bonsai> burepe are you running xgl/compiz?
[06:07] <burepe> waht is that?
[06:07] <bonsai> !info xgl
[06:07] <ubotu> Package xgl does not exist in dapper
[06:08] <burepe> hmm
[06:08] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, sata gives support for eide?
[06:08] <bonsai> burepe it could have explained your video performance
[06:08] <tritium> EdsipeR: that could be any number of things.
[06:08] <snoops> because it's not called xgl in repositories.. xserver-xgl I believe
[06:08] <burepe> ah
[06:08] <krang> anybody for help with my fglrx problem?
[06:08] <snoops> compiz is however in the repositories
[06:08] <burepe> so should I get that package?
[06:08] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: no but i do not know what hardware do you have ;)
[06:08] <krang> getting lots of errors like
[06:08] <EdsipeR> tritium, some forums say that this problems it's a udev problem

[06:09] <krang> after following the installation guide in the ubuntuforums
[06:09] <billybennett> anyone know how to restart my sound?  I lost sound in youtube
[06:09] <bonsai> burepe, no, but if you were running it, it could have explained choppy video playback...
[06:09] <mrbrdo> if i change resolution over 1024x768 i get werid graphical problems (seems like parts of the screen are cloning around)
[06:09] <bobovski> mwe: ok, fixed it. found in a forum post. ran chown -R <username>:users /home/<username>/.macromedia
[06:09] <burepe> ok
[06:09] <tritium> krang: the wiki guide is the official guide.  Did you use ubuntu packages?
[06:09] <bobovski> mwe: so does that mean I have to run this for each of the users on this system if I want it to work for all users?
[06:10] <stefg> stinkball: #wine is prolly a better channel to ask this
[06:10] <krang> i downloaded the driver from the link in the ubuntuforums-guide.
[06:10] <mwe> bobovski: I never did that
[06:10] <mrbrdo> do i need to install nvidia drivers or something to be able to use resolutions over 1024x768?
[06:10] <tritium> krang: you really should use official ubuntu packages
[06:10] <bobovski> mwe: hmm, worked for me. I'll just do it for each user and wash my hands of it. Thanks for the help
[06:10] <erUSUL> !fixres > mrbrdo
[06:10] <mrbrdo> thanks
[06:11] <krang> i got the same problems with them, tritium
[06:11] <burepe> the dvd is ok if it is not full screen (kinda has lines in it though). Is there a way to kill some processes to give more memory to the dvd? maybe using xfce or something?

[06:13] <mormoloc> im looking for a way to find out what fonts i have on my linux Os?
[06:13] <bonsai> i see, there is an but in the latest fglrx driver for the radeon 92xx series
[06:13] <kukkaisrinsessa> !fixres
[06:13] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto

[06:13] <burepe> not sure
[06:13] <krang> yay, bonsai: my graphic-card is on the working-list...
[06:14] <tritium> burepe: xine and gxine work well too
[06:14] <bonsai> krang have a look at this thread, if the errors are the same, follow the instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185033&
[06:14] <burepe> vlc is way better right now

[06:15] <dobedobedew> If I clone a Ubuntu 6.06 install, the eth0 will not come up.  It used to work with 5.10.  Is it storing the MAC address somewhere?
[06:15] <tritium> abhinay: please play with ubotu in a private query
[06:15] <bonsai> krang, yes your card is supported of course, but the newest fglrx driver has a bug for 92xx series which can be fixed by replacing a file which you can download in that thread
[06:15] <tritium> dobedobedew: yes, /etc/iftab
[06:16] <krang> ok, I'll have a try ^^
[06:16] <abhinay> tritium, as iam new to IRC chat , hw can i do tat ?
[06:16] <fuoco> can i use 2.6.17 kernel on ubuntu somehow ? are there ready made images ?
[06:16] <krang> ah, yes, there it is. my errors :) thanks for this until next error ;)
[06:16] <tritium> abhinay: /query ubotu, and then type away
[06:16] <ardchoille> abhinay: /query ubotu
[06:16] <tritium> fuoco: no images yet for dapper, but for edgy, yes
[06:16] <dobedobedew> Thanks tritium! Is that something that is ubuntu specific?
[06:17] <thespore> How can i  get a command line docked to the panel?  I could do this with Breezy.
[06:17] <tritium> dobedobedew: I'm not sure, as ubuntu is all I use these days
[06:17] <fuoco> tritium: will dapper ever upgrade the kernel ?
[06:17] <homerh_linux> hiya where can i find a list of all the offical ubuntu repos (think i screwed mine )
[06:17] <tritium> It's probably beign used in debian as well
[06:17] <bonsai> krang, download libGL.so.1.2 and replace it
[06:17] <tritium> fuoco: if security vulnerabilities require it
[06:17] <krang> ..in progress.. :)
[06:17] <assasukasse> does anyone know about a http irc gateway? at work they filtered out irc
[06:17] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, where is located the SATA support in kernel sources???, I just found a deprecated option
[06:18] <zecarlos> join #ubuntu-br
[06:18] <wildman> thespore, right lcik on the panel, add, take a look down where it says something like "run an application"
[06:18] <wildman> thespore, lcik -> click
[06:18] <knapper> teelittle: I logged out and did '/etc/xinit.d/kdm start and it said it was already started.
[06:19] <rambo3> !info freevo breezy
[06:19] <ubotu> Package freevo does not exist in breezy
[06:19] <tritium> knapper: there is a restart option too
[06:19] <thespore> wildman, yeah i saw that.. not what i wanted. :P
[06:19] <s_spiff> hey ppl any1 used bmpx on a 64 amd arch?
[06:19] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: if you do not have sata drives you do not need it. anyway is under scsi drivers libata
[06:19] <krang> yeah, it works
[06:19] <krang> lets see, what glxinfo says
[06:19] <tritium> rambo3: try mythtv
[06:19] <wildman> thespore, then, what do you want to do?
[06:19] <thespore> wildman, used to have an actual command line docked on the panel
[06:19] <knapper> tritium I did stop then start and it still sat at the text login
[06:19] <krang> dri also works, hm, I'll test it
[06:19] <rambo3> Trinisan, why , i need media center not tv center
[06:19] <wildman> thespore, actual command line = script?
[06:19] <tritium> knapper: what's the original problem, anway?
[06:19] <tritium> anyway, rather
[06:19] <ardchoille> knapper: Are you at tty1 or tty7?
[06:20] <knapper> tritium, when I boot up it goes to text login instead of graphical
[06:20] <knapper> tty7?
[06:20] <knapper> I guess
[06:20] <knapper> yeah
[06:20] <tritium> rambo3: mythtv is a media center, essentially, and much further along than freevo
[06:20] <thespore> wildman, no it was an option in the "Add to panel" in breezy.  put a commandline so i could just click and type "kill esd" or whatever, was much simpler than opening a terminal.
[06:20] <krang> seems like it works, thanks bonsai =)
[06:20] <EdsipeR> erUSUL, my running kernel use /dev/hda2 to mount the root partition, the new kernel can't do that, all hard disk support has been build inside kernel image
[06:20] <krang> now I'll have a test with xgl ^^
[06:20] <bonsai> good news, np krang
[06:20] <thespore> wildman, but it seems it has disappeared with dapper
[06:21] <krang> *log off*
[06:21] <wildman> from the description of "run an app" that's what it does... you type a command, press Enter and it's executed
[06:21] <wildman> thespore, or that's what I've understood at least :)
[06:21] <thespore> wildman.  yes.. but you have to click the button for the command line to come up.  this was an actual command line on the panel.. don't have to click anything for it to come up :P
[06:21] <wildman> thespore, just saw it, right... no more place to type 'directly'
[06:22] <thespore> wildman, yeah :(
[06:22] <thespore> wildman, it was handy ;)
[06:22] <wildman> yeah
[06:22] <erUSUL> EdsipeR: i do not know whyyour new kernel does not boot... did you use the ubuntu conf as a base for yours? 'cp /boot/config-2.6.15-23-k7 .config && make oldconfig' ??

[06:27] <thespore> mwe, if ya find out, lemme know! lol
[06:27] <B|nTaRa> vmware player or vm ware workstation or vmware server ?
[06:28] <mwe> thespore: yeah :)
[06:28] <phunkalicious> workstation or server, not player
[06:28] <stefg> B|nTaRa: you can download preintalled images at the vmware site.. sve you effort
[06:28] <phunkalicious> server is free now you know, just use that
[06:28] <mwe> server is free?
[06:28] <phunkalicious> yup
[06:28] <phunkalicious> they took their gsx server, called it just vmware server, and made it freezy
[06:29] <FeestBijtje> erUSUL, linux keeps it ocupied for new processes? and makes it free when needet?
[06:29] <B|nTaRa> thank you
[06:29] <mwe> I wonder why that is. couldn't sell it I guess
[06:29] <_marshall> phunkalicious: so if i want to switch from vanilla to quinn all i have to do is uninstall the vanilla packages and install quinn?

[06:30] <phunkalicious> umm...i think you ust have to enable quinn's repositories and hten update _marshall, but i'm not exactly sure; ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[06:30] <phunkalicious> they probably know more :D
[06:30] <aty> no i dont remember you. i have the same problem with an nvidia gf2 card

[06:50] <fortran01> ciaron, maybe 1:0 is already occupied
[06:51] <FunnyLookinHat> aqau_inter_fly, go to ubuntuforums.org and search the model number, i bet you'll find osmeone who has
[06:51] <ciaron> fortran01: nah its a headless box
[06:51] <skavenge> how do i tell firefox to use the gstreamer plugin instead of the mozilla one?
[06:51] <aqau_inter_fly> funnylookinhat: I did go to the forums and I found one, but I'm kind of new to Linux and I didn't understand it
[06:52] <ciaron> fortran01: vnserver is running fine i just can't launch any apps when logged into it
[06:52] <jwhayman> could someone tell me the default install directory for apache2 please?
[06:52] <FunnyLookinHat> aqau_inter_fly, ahh ok.  Well if you have a specific question about it you can post it here and I'm sure someone can help you, I would offer to help more directly but I am at work   : (

[06:54] <fortran01> skavenge, delete the mozilla one then install the gstreamer plugin
[06:54] <_marshall> hey guys
[06:54] <aqau_inter_fly> ok i just installed ubuntu yesterday and i was wondering how to install packages
[06:55] <fortran01> aqau_inter_fly, use Synaptic Manager
[06:55] <aqau_inter_fly> Fortran01:  How?
[06:55] <jeremyclarke> you can choose "add or remove" from one of the main menus
[06:55] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: system > administration > synaptic package manager
[06:56] <RedGhost> aqua_inter_fly: apt-cache search, apt-get install "name"
[06:56] <RedGhost> do apt-get update first
[06:56] <skavenge> fortran01: ive done that 20 times no dice, firefox thinks mozilla is still installed and doesnt register the gstreamer OR xine plugins
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> skavenge: read the restrictedformats wiki.
[06:57] <fortran01> skavenge, did you restart?
[06:57] <aqau_inter_fly> Okay, I'm going to go hook up my computer through ehternet so i can get internet on ubuntu, then i'll be back
[06:57] <skavenge> fortran01: of course
[06:57] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: thats not going to do me any good
[06:59] <Hexidigital_> hi guys... i need to edit my /etc/network/interfaces file to allow me to switch between my home LAN and my college LAN.. file is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18521 ... any ideas what i'd need to change to allow college LAN access?
[06:59] <fyrestrtr> skavenge: tells you how to fiddle with firefox if plugins aren't working.
[07:00] <fortran01> Hexidigital_, can't you use the network configuration?
[07:00] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: i dont see it
[07:00] <fyrestrtr> Hexidigital_: use the profiles in network-manager
[07:00] <fyrestrtr> skavenge: read it?
[07:00] <Hexidigital_> fyrestrtr::  ah, i didn't think of that... thanks
[07:01] <Hexidigital_> fortran01::  what do you mean network configuration? network manager?
[07:01] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: uh yeah
[07:01] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: a 1000 times
[07:01] <Ballsy> Anyone know hwere I can find a comprehensive list of 'boot options' that I can specify when trying the Dapper Live CD ?
[07:01] <skavenge> i can recite 3/4 of the restricted formats page from memory, sure it says how to install plugins doesnt say anything about fixing them when they're broke
[07:02] <Ballsy> with Suse 10.1, I can specify a simple   '3'  as an option to boot to run-level 3....but apparnetly not with Ubuntu LiveCD
[07:02] <fortran01> Hexidigital_, I'm also trying network-manager now.thanks to fyrestrtr
[07:03] <billybennett> Anyone here know why I lost sound in flash?
[07:03] <fyrestrtr> skavenge: this didn't help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-e25afe1552d3a818f60e64143931b2d8e0522267
[07:03] <fortran01> billybennett, maybe another program is holding the sound device
[07:04] <fyrestrtr> Ballsy: hit F1 at the boot: prompt
[07:04] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: no, as i said all it tells you is how to install them
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> you want to switch, right? uninstall the first one, re-install this one. If it doesn't work, scroll to the bottom of the page where it lists the location of the firefox plugins, and link the one you want to that location.
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> you have to be a bit creative to find the solution.
[07:05] <billybennett> fortran01, I dont have anything else open except xchat
[07:05] <zukalk> does anyone know how to give the mic input a REAL boost? that damn Mic Boost (+20dB) won't help, or barely will
[07:05] <rambo3> Trinisan, thanks for recomending mythtv
[07:06] <stabby-> What is the state of Linux NTFS Support?
[07:06] <fortran01> billybennett, is it the flash plugin in your browser
[07:06] <Ballsy> fyrestrtr, right, but that just gets me to the boot:  prompt.  The problem is, I dunno what option(s) I need to get to run-level 3 only (ie. no X)
[07:06] <billybennett> fortran01, it was working the other day so I dunno
[07:07] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: ive switched 20 times and get no option to link to anything else obviously you didnt pay attention to my initial question
[07:07] <stabby-> What is the state of Linux NTFS Support?
[07:07] <billybennett> fortran01, random mplayer files work in firefox.. it seems to be flash videos like youtube
[07:07] <mrbrdo> i cannot use resolutions over 1024x768 (parts of screen become copied parts from other parts, it looks very weird). i use an ATI mobility card (notebook), and i use the ati driver (not the fglrx one).. any ideas? i tried everything in !fixres to no avail.
[07:07] <fyrestrtr> skavenge: *sigh* you didn't understand what I wrote. Nevermind, maybe someone else can help you :)
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> stabby-: read only works great, write -- not so great.
[07:08] <stabby-> ...
[07:08] <stabby-> they finished the write support couple days ago
[07:08] <skavenge> fyrestrtr: i completely understood, your not solving the problem at hand with your answer is the point, *sigh*
[07:08] <stabby-> idiot
[07:08] <fortran01> maybe mplayer is using the device. try lsof /dev/audio or /dev/dsp in terminal to see who's hold the dev
[07:08] <fortran01> billybennett,
[07:08] <stabby-> ur telling me bullshit
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> !captive
[07:08] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:09] <fyrestrtr> stabby-: read that ^ -- stop calling people idiot, only makes you look like one.

[07:19] <zazeem> anyone?
[07:19] <zsuzsi> hi
[07:19] <Seveas> zazeem, you'd better fix the mounting of that harddrive instead of throwing security out the window by being root all the time
[07:19] <fyrestrtr> zazeem: you cannot stay logged in as root -- for safety reasons. You need to mount your other hard driver properly.

[07:20] <Seveas> Jared, q1 2007
[07:20] <zazeem> sudo -s then what?
[07:20] <waern> do default methods have to have type signatures in class declarations?

[07:28] <stefg> phaedrus44: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18524
[07:28] <gizmo_the_great1> Hi. I am using sftp to upload files to a server. I used ' put Mounts/ext3/folder1/folder2/* web'. However, it's only copied a fraction of the files from folder2 to folder 'web' on the server.  Most of the files generate the error "skipping non-regular file...filename". Any ideas?
[07:28] <phaedrus44> i dont have it
[07:28] <mjr> thompa, reserved blocks (you can modify the amount with tune2fs) and iso vs. binary kilos
[07:28] <fyrestrtr> gizmo_the_great1: they are probably directories that its skipping. Use scp instead.
[07:28] <zazeem> is there any wikis or information where i can make my nvidia card go faster or run better?
[07:28] <phaedrus44> stefg: how do i know what my ip is?
[07:28] <mjr> plus, of course, actual FS overhead
[07:28] <thompa> mjr: should i just ignore this?
[07:29] <phaedrus44> or the ip of my router?
[07:29] <gizmo_the_great1> fyrestrtr:  they are directories, yes. What is scp?
[07:29] <fyrestrtr> gizmo_the_great1: scp = secure copy
[07:29] <gizmo_the_great1> phaedrus44, ifconfig
[07:29] <mjr> thompa, well, the default reserved block count _is_ probably too high on most filesystems...
[07:29] <thompa> mjr: what is the reserve used for?
[07:29] <zazeem> is there any wikis or information where i can make my nvidia card go faster or run better?
[07:30] <phaedrus44> is the inet address the address of the cable modem?
[07:30] <stefg> phaedrus44: _you_  /define/ it... take 192.168.1.1 if you don't know a better one... make sure you're on the same subnet as your router (2nd last number must match)
[07:30] <jpjacobs> zazeem, have you installed nvidia-glx?
[07:30] <phaedrus44> thank you much
[07:30] <mjr> thompa, space reserved for the root account
[07:30] <zazeem> yes
[07:31] <zazeem> jpjacobs yes
[07:31] <elephanthunter> When I update ubuntu, a bunch of menu items are added to the grub menu. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
[07:31] <mjr> thompa, generally kept to assure the functioning of basic system services under space constraints
[07:31] <thompa> mjr: ok so its not a hidden microsoft partition or anything, i just zeroed the entire driiv
[07:31] <Juhaz> partitioning tools don't count reserved space anyway
[07:31] <zazeem> jpjacobs: i heard there was a way in the config to make it go better
[07:32] <mwe> elephanthunter: you probably want to be able to boot the new kernels though
[07:32] <GreySim> Does anyone know if there are any options for the Mac Dapper Desktop CD besides 'video=ofonly'? If I use that option, X doesn't boot, and if I don't use that option, X boots but I end up with a blank screen.
[07:32] <stefg> phaedrus44: if you have no router, just a cable-modem then you get your IP from your ISP... you can't have a static one then
[07:32] <kouwe> why am i not seeing "What to do when lid closes" at the Power Management Preferences ?
[07:32] <Juhaz> ~16-17G is all accounted for in the 2^30 vs 10^9 difference for 250G drive
[07:33] <Foobal> kouwe: because Linux and most of the oss software is some 5-10 years behind the development.
[07:33] <kouwe> ^^
[07:33] <djm62> kouwe: what are you seeing?
[07:34] <kouwe> no actions at all
[07:34] <kouwe> only 1 action under " running on battery "
[07:34] <SogniX> how can I find out what the throughput speed of my hard drives are?
[07:34] <zazeem>  my nvidia stuff is messed up.  it says in terminal when i put nvidia-glx-config enable it says it cant automatically do it because it was altered, it tells me to edit manually. What do i do?
[07:34] <djm62> kouwe: I see three tabs in power management preferences, on AC - on Battery, and general
[07:34] <elephanthunter> mwe: good point
[07:34] <kouwe> djm62: me to but there should be some actions on the bottom
[07:35] <fyrestrtr> zazeem: open up /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change Driver "nv" to Driver "nvidia"
[07:35] <mrbrdo> djm62:  there's an option at the bottom of on AC for me - "When the laptop lid is closed"
[07:35] <fyrestrtr> zazeem: read the nvidia wiki entry.
[07:35] <djm62> kouwe: OK, so you don't have "when laptop lid is closed" with a choose box
[07:35] <mrbrdo> djm62:  under actions
[07:35] <kouwe> djm62: no not at all....
[07:35] <zazeem> i rread the entry
[07:35] <mwe> elephanthunter: I think if you remove the old kernel if the new one works the entries for that one will go away as well
[07:35] <stefg> SogniX: sudo hdparm -T /dev/hdX
[07:35] <zazeem> i did what it said to do
[07:36] <djm62> kouwe: what sort of laptop do you have?
[07:36] <kouwe> Toshiba Satellite M70-147
[07:36] <djm62> kouwe: have you had a google with the model number and "ubuntu"?
[07:36] <kouwe> yes but no hits
[07:36] <mwe> I wonder if if will be able to install a small linux on my mp3 player and boot my laptop from it
[07:37] <SogniX> stefg: sweet, thanks
[07:37] <mwe> basically use it as a stick
[07:37] <Jared> mwe, might bes omething to write about if you can get it to work
[07:37] <djm62> mwe: I have had success with that and DSL, but it stopped working as an mp3 player
[07:38] <mwe> djm62: yes I know it will probably hose the existing file system
[07:39] <m_0_r_0_n> Is there a way to repair an usb flash disk? Windows XP is not able to recognize my usb flash disk since I am writing to it on Ubuntu. Ubuntu is still able to write/read to the usb disk.
[07:39] <fowlduck> m_0_r_0_n, does it have a filesystem on it that windows can read?
[07:39] <zazeem> i dont get this i dsid everything the wiki said but my sudo nvidia-glx-config enable command errors me
[07:40] <nalioth> m_0_r_0_n: more likely you need to enable ext2/ext3 reading/writing capability in XP
[07:40] <m_0_r_0_n> fowlduck, fat32
[07:40] <stefg> m_0_r_0_n: what filesystem is the stick formatted to?
[07:40] <m_0_r_0_n> It s an 8 GB usb flash disk
[07:40] <fowlduck> zazeem, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:40] <fowlduck> zazeem, then select appropriate options
[07:40] <Foobal> m_0_r_0_n: you formatted it in linux?
[07:41] <zazeem> ok
[07:41] <CokeNCode> ok, so ... this guy has put up my whois info for my site on his blog ... is that illegal ?
[07:41] <m_0_r_0_n> No, it was preformatted for Windows, but should be compatible to linux
[07:41] <djm62> mwe: use dd to back up the mp3 player, and dd to put the filesystem back on should you want to use it as a player
[07:41] <kouwe> !xchat-tray
[07:41] <ubotu> I know nothing about xchat-tray - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:41] <CokeNCode> bashing me, and my website, just because i quoted his tutorial, without asking his permission
[07:41] <aqau_inter_fly> hello everyone
[07:42] <mwe> djm62: yeah
[07:42] <CokeNCode> i apologized and removed it immediately, and he is still refusing to fix the blog
[07:42] <djm62> kouwe: I can't find anything on google for that
[07:42] <kouwe> no me neither.....
[07:42] <MarcN> CokeNCode: anyone can lookup whois information.  Type this at the command line:        whois yourdomain.com
[07:42] <aqau_inter_fly> Isn't that a program called "Wine" or something that allows you to run Windows programs in Linux?
[07:43] <stefg> !info wine
[07:43] <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
[07:43] <CokeNCode> MarcN yeh, i know that. I'm using linux after all, but I just didn't think it was necessary to reproduce said info, and then encourage others to call my home number at all hours of the day and night
[07:43] <sjbrown> ok, so i apt-get installed all the directfb stuff.  anyone know how to check that it's running for sure?
[07:43] <sjbrown> is there a test program?
[07:43] <m_0_r_0_n> I am quite sure, if I delete all files on my usb flash disk, windows will be able to recognize the disk again. I think the fat32 driver of linux is buggy.
[07:43] <MarcN> CokeNCode: asking people to call you is a childish.
[07:44] <stefg> m_0_r_0_n: it's not. period
[07:44] <CokeNCode> MarcN the part that has me so shocked, is that I apologized immediately, and removed the article. And even linked to it like he asked.
[07:44] <m_0_r_0_n> stefg, period?
[07:44] <CokeNCode> But he still found it necessary to put all my info up in his blog and bash my site
[07:45] <_marshall> does anybody know aht glitz is?
[07:45] <burzum> Video codec 'MS WMV 9 (win32)' is not handled. You might need to install additional plugins to be able to play some types of movies <-- is it impossible to play this?
[07:45] <_marshall> *does anybody know what glitz is?
[07:45] <burzum> marshall: google knows
[07:45] <burzum> wikipedia too :)
[07:45] <CokeNCode> *sigh ... I wish everyone used ubuntu, and lived by its principles
[07:46] <stefg> fat32 is everything but an ideal filesystem. so maybe the flash memory is already faulty and windows is having trouble reading the fat... back it up, reformat and throw the stuff back on it... then complain again
[07:47] <djm62> kouwe: I can only suggest posting to the appropriate ubuntu forum to give more people a chance to see your question
[07:47] <m_0_r_0_n> stefg, it s my second usb disk with the same problem
[07:48] <Foobal> _marshall: my guess: opengl interfacing library, makes it possible to seriously hardware accelerate Cairo stuff
[07:48] <kouwe> djm62: i think i go and make a post there yeah..... but thnx!
[07:48] <Niunio> Hello. I need help to configure a parport scanner.
[07:48] <Seveas> Foobal, good guess ;)
[07:48] <_marshall> Foobal: do i want it if i already have compiz?
[07:49] <Seveas> _marshall, yes
[07:49] <IseeIse1> i'm trying to delete a bridge, it says bridge is still up can't delete it, how can I make the bridge do down ?
[07:49] <Foobal> _marshall: my guess is yeah.. if compiz screws the acceleration part up it'll fall back to mesa and you won't lose anything anyways
[07:49] <_marshall> Seveas: how come?
[07:49] <_marshall> ohh
[07:50] <stefg> i'm tempted to say 'works for me' , but to verify it you need to format the stick and write some test data to it in Windows... after that write to it in Linux. then try if windows can read, waht Linux wrote
[07:50] <Foobal> _marshall: it just offers some stuff like drawing curves in a pretty standard and efficient way even if the hardware acceleration for it breaks.. but if the acceleration works with compiz, it'll be extremely fast and nice experience
[07:50] <m_0_r_0_n> stefg, I am deleting all files (3 GB)...
[07:50] <aqau_inter_fly> Okay, I just installed Wine using Synaptic package manager...now how do i use it
[07:50] <_marshall> Foobal: ohhh cool
[07:50] <Niunio> I'm trying to install an Epson GT-6500 "parport". I've followed all tutorials and FAQs and mans I've found but it doesn't work. Can somebody help me?
[07:50] <_marshall> Foobal: all i gotta do is install the packages right?
[07:51] <mrbrdo> fyrestrtr: i installed the fglrx driver now, and now i can't even choose higher resolutions than 1024x768 in the Screen Resolution configuration tool
[07:51] <stefg> !fixres
[07:51] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:52] <SogniX> is there any way to prevent a Mac from writing resource forks to my ubuntu server's hard drive? (and no, getting rid of the Mac is not an option :))
[07:52] <Foobal> _marshall: no idea whether the Cairo will notice the installation of it etc.. I haven't checked out how stuff works on Ubuntu, sorry
[07:52] <mrbrdo> i alredy tried the guide with the ATI drivers (not fglrx), but ok i will try again now
[07:52] <_marshall> Foobal: ok, thanks man
[07:52] <stefg> SogniX: give the mac read-only access :-)
[07:52] <SogniX> stefg: lol that's not an option either. heh
[07:53] <stefg> SogniX: OS9 or OSX
[07:53] <SogniX> stefg: I was thinking of converting the drive to hfs+ - but last time I tried that it (or ubuntu) didn't like losing power and corripted the whole thing :/
[07:53] <SogniX> OSX
[07:53] <fyrestrtr> SogniX: I have a bookmark for that (I think -- maybe I lost it) but someone posted about that already. Google would help.
[07:54] <aqau_inter_fly> I just installed wine, how do i use it?
[07:54] <abbot45> totem-xine runs off the w32codecs right?
[07:54] <SogniX> and any way to disable the join/part messages in xchat? gets annoying :)
[07:55] <stefg> SogniX: conference-mode :-)
[07:55] <erUSUL> SogniX: right click in tab channel button
[07:55] <Nod51> I want to install the amd64 kernel on a 32bit install so I can run a amd64 vertual server. How can I compile the kernel to be AMD64bit and not just AMD64 optimized?
[07:55] <Foobal> abbot45: yes
[07:56] <abbot45> Foobal.  wird i've installed the w32codecs and totem-xine still won't play anything but mpeg video.  not even mp3s.
[07:56] <Foobal> Nod51: the difference is so small that you can just use the standard x86 32-bit kernel without losing much
[07:56] <Nod51> Foobal: My mythtv encoding gets a 50% performance increase from 64bit
[07:56] <SogniX> stefg, erUSUL: I don't see how to do that
[07:57] <Nod51> Foobal: but a lot fo games, browser plugins, and Wine don't like 64 bit
[07:57] <mrbrdo> when i try "aticonfig --resolution=..." i get "Error: Section # expected" (and aticonfig doesn't display --resolution as a valid option when it lists all the available parameters)
[07:57] <Foobal> nod51: ahh, you meant that. then you just want to get the general x86-64 kernel
[07:58] <Nod51> Foobal: well I would like to run int in a virtual server since it is easy to set up and seperates it from my general use system.
[07:58] <stefg> SogniX: i don't use xchat, but in chatzilla there's an option of switching the channel in conference-mode (no joins/parts) if a certain user limit is reached..
[07:59] <Foobal> nod51: the host and the guest having different ones?
[07:59] <Nod51> Foobal: but as you suggested, shoudl I just d/l the x86-64 kernel deb by hand in stall it or is there an apt option to search a different arch?
[07:59] <zazeem> how do i get new repositories on ubuntu? i have the newest version of ubuntu
[07:59] <mrbrdo> oops, actually it does list it, but it still doesn't work
[07:59] <abbot45> is quicktime included in the w32codecs?
[07:59] <Foobal> yes.
[08:00] <Nod51> Foobal: yes there isa 64bit install with 64libs and encoders and such, while I have a 32bit host with 32bit libs and such
[08:00] <cpk2> what repository has the w32codecs?
[08:00] <mrbrdo> ok nvm fixed, brb
[08:00] <aqau_inter_fly> can anyone help me

[08:01] <zazeem> how do i get new repositories on ubuntu? i have the newest version of ubuntu
[08:01] <cpk2> alright abbot45 thanks
[08:01] <_JP> grub's "menu.lst" is overwritten always when i update kernel. where/how do i set grub defaults?
[08:01] <Nod51> Foobal: I know there are ways to override the libs and hack in a working 32bit in a 64bit install, but virtual servers are easy to set up for me. It also allows me to just cp it to another computer if I upgrade some day.
[08:01] <Bombur> why
[08:01] <Foobal> nod51: I doubt that could work.. I've heard of the host running 64-bit and the guests 32-bit kernels.. I doubt it works the other way around but I'm not an expert on that (I don't have yet emt64 capable cpu myself)
[08:01] <cpk2> aqau_inter_fly: you could try cedega, its incredibly simple
[08:01] <Bombur> can I ask a question?
[08:01] <XKnight> _JP, /boot/grub in there youl see the grub config file
[08:01] <j_ack> cpk2 , http://users.lichtsnel.nl/~seveas/dists/dapper-seveas/
[08:02] <Bombur> can I ask a question?
[08:02] <aqau_inter_fly> I have just installed Wine using synampic package installer, now how do i use it?
[08:02] <soundray> Bombur: you already are
[08:02] <cpk2> j_ack: cool thanks
[08:02] <Bombur> am I?
[08:02] <guitarra> hi
[08:02] <Seveas> Bombur, and again 
[08:02] <Nod51> Foobal: well the kernel can be 64bit, 64bit NVIDIA (with 32bit libs) and modules, but as far as the rest, 32bit libs should play nice with a 64bit kernel
[08:02] <abhinay> aqau_inter_fly, wine <filename>
[08:02] <XKnight> aqau_inter_fly, usiusally from the command line: wine <win file to run>
[08:02] <cpk2> !ask
[08:02] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:02] <_JP> XKnight: well, there isn't any grub.conf or so, which one do you mean?
[08:03] <Bombur> what question shall I ask?
[08:03] <stefg> aqau_inter_fly: better ask in#wine
[08:03] <abbot45> all i know is that i could play h264 video & mp3s in totem before, then i had to re-install ubuntu.  now even though i've got totem-xine & w32codecs installed i can't play either one in totem.  does anyone know whats going on?
[08:03] <XKnight> _jp so in the grub dir there isnt a conf file et al?
[08:03] <Foobal> Nod51: yeah.
[08:03] <Bombur> what question shall I ask?
[08:03] <Nod51> Foobal: lets just say I like to do the unusual somtimes if the end result might work better :-). Anyhow thanks for your help I will continue searching google on how to compile a kernel for 64bit on a 32bit system
[08:03] <guitarra> who knows, how i can install in text mode on amd64 machine
[08:04] <soundray> Bombur: keep doing that, and you'll get kickbanned
[08:04] <mrbrdo> thanks guys, resolution is working OK now, after installing the fglrx driver and following the !fixres wiki
[08:04] <Bombur> why
[08:04] <gizmo_the_great1> can anyone tell me how to upload BOTH files AND folders using either sftp or scp? Using either it seems to only be able to upload the files. I've also tried using Nautilus and gFTP - both seem unable to process the sftp connection for some reason
[08:04] <erUSUL> guitarra: with the alternate cd?
[08:04] <Nod51> Foobal: was just wondering if anyone knew what compile flags I needed to give it.
[08:04] <ubuntu_newbie> Hello
[08:04] <Bombur> I only asked a question
[08:04] <guitarra> no with the desktop cd
[08:04] <srikanth> Can any one tell where the screen shots are saved in vlc player(When we take screen shots)
[08:04] <Bombur> tell me an answer
[08:05] <fyrestrtr> gizmo_the_great1: scp -R /path/to/somewhere/* user@someserver.com:/path/to/somewhere/
[08:05] <abbot45> srikanth, did you look in /home/YOU/.vlc?  just a guess.
[08:05] <guitarra> there is no option in the install menu
[08:05] <soundray> Thanks Seveas
[08:05] <jwhayman> I'm having trouble getting PHP5 to work with my Apache2 server, it worked until i reinstalled it, is there a conf file for apache i need to update or something please?
[08:05] <ubuntu_newbie> When I reboot my linux machine I'm receiving this message "Give root password for maintenance ubuntu" but I DO NOT REMEMBER the ROOT password! Now, how do I do to enter?? Ctrl+D just reboots
[08:05] <srikanth> abbot45, 1m
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu_newbie: your password is the root password
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: define 'trouble'
[08:06] <_JP> XKnight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18525
[08:06] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr the php scripts on my website try and download themselves instead of just displaying as they normally would
[08:06] <srikanth> abbot45, ya;thank u
[08:06] <srikanth> abbot45, working
[08:07] <gizmo_the_great1> fyrestrtr: Thanks, but I already tried that syntax. I had previously used lower case r and so tried it with 'R' but that just diplsyed the help to me
[08:07] <ubuntu_newbie> fyrestrtr: but it's not working
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: they were working previously?
[08:08] <fyrestrtr> gizmo_the_great1: its lowercase r, and it should work -- if you have ssh access on the remote machine.
[08:08] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu_newbie: don't know then, sorry.
[08:08] <XKnight> _jp if you do ls -l menu.lst it should point to the grub.conf ... if its red then the file has been removed ...
[08:08] <abbot45> so anyone.  is there any reason why .mov, .mp3, .avi shouldn't be working in totem-xine even though i've got w32codecs installed?
[08:09] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr: yes they were working perfectly, then a book i have about mysql said i needed to install mysqli so that i could connect to mysql databases and to do that i would need to download PHP5 again and build from source with the correct config files. this didnt work so i just reinstalled PHP5 from synaptic and now it doenst work
[08:09] <Avdi> Any Emacs users?  I need a recent org-mode package and the homepage is down.
[08:09] <soundray> ubuntu_newbie: can you reboot in recovery mode? (select second option in grub menu)
[08:09] <fyrestrtr> abbot45: got all that gstreamer stuff installed?
[08:09] <XKnight> youl need to create it ... see the grub howto to obtain the information or ... tldp.org
[08:09] <gizmo_the_great1> fyres
[08:09] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: oh geez, you could have just sudo apt-get install php5-mysqli
[08:09] <srikanth> abbot45, w32 codecs are to see live sites only
[08:09] <abbot45> fyrestrtr, yes, but that doesn't matter because totem-xine doesn't use gstreamer.  totem-gstreamer does.
[08:09] <gizmo_the_great1> fyrestrtr: I tried again with lower case r and all I get is : Hello, I'm freeFTPd 1.0
[08:09] <ubuntu_newbie> Does anybody else know? I'm receiving this message when rebooting but I think I forgot my root password, what can I do now? "Give root password for maintenance ubuntu"
[08:10] <fyrestrtr> abbot45: oh yeah :) whoops.
[08:10] <srikanth> abbot45, to play ur formats try vlc
[08:10] <abbot45> srikanth, what do you mean?
[08:10] <SogniX> is there a file manager that provides info when xfering files (such as throughput, how many MBs remaining, etc.)?
[08:10] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr yeah i tried that first (building from source looks hard) and it didnt work, any idea how to get PHP5 running again though please?
[08:10] <abbot45> srikanth, they were working fine in totem-xine before i had to reinstall ubuntu.
[08:10] <XKnight> jwhayman, if you want php5 with mysql support build it with --with-mysql=(location to where mysql is located)
[08:10] <gizmo_the_great1> my exact syntax is "scp -r Mounts/ext3/Chaddesden/Chaddesden.org/* tsmith@64.20.34.86:/folder1" - i enter the password then it just sits there doing nothing
[08:11] <abbot45> srikanth, h264 video doesn't work right in vlc, but it worked fine in totem
[08:11] <skavenge> man my totem plugin for firefox is just fubar'd
[08:11] <fyrestrtr> gizmo_the_great1: you need a ftp client then. Use the built-in ftp capabilities of nautilus. Go to Places > Connect to server... and choose FTP from the top menu, enter your details. It will create a folder on the desktop that is mapped to the ftp server. Then click and drag your files to it to copy them.
[08:11] <Foobal> ubuntu_newbie: I'm afraid it's a bug - you'd need the real root password which you can't know. you will have to boot the kernel parameters so that it goes automatically past that - I can't recall how to do itthough
[08:11] <srikanth> abbot45, ok
[08:12] <abbot45> srikanth, now i haven't got anything to work in totem besides mpeg video
[08:12] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: hrmm, don't know to be honest. First thing I would do is, remove whatever you installed from source. Then, remove the php5 using sudo apt-get remove --purge php5 -- then re-install it sudo apt-get install php5 php5-mysqli
[08:12] <ubuntu_newbie> Foobal: can I do anything with the CD in the drive?
[08:12] <srikanth> abbot45, do u know how to install plash player.....to play .swf formats
[08:12] <srikanth> ?
[08:12] <falap-> hi. is it possible to get a serial mouse working in the graphical Xubuntu install CD?
[08:12] <stefg> !flash
[08:12] <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
[08:12] <Foobal> ubuntu_newbie: yeah most likely you can fix any error on your installation with it, if you know what the error is
[08:12] <fyrestrtr> falap-: if you plug it in before the system boots, it should work.
[08:12] <jwhayman> xknight, according to my book it says it needs configure --with-mysqli --with-apxs2=(location) however i dont know the location of the apache2, its not in the generic place (/usr/local/apache2) according to this stupid book
[08:13] <abbot45> srikanth, haven't tried before.
[08:13] <Avdi> savannah
[08:13] <srikanth> abbot45, k
[08:13] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: forget the book.
[08:13] <_JP> XKnight: well, it's just a regular file
[08:13] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr ok thanks ill give that a shot
[08:13] <Avdi> oops, wrong window.
[08:13] <santa99> how can i shutdown with a .sh file
[08:13] <gizmo_the_great1> fyrestrtr: thanks - but I tried that too (in fact, I did that first!) - it just says "Nautilus cannot display "ssh://tsmith@64.20.34.86:21/ - Please select another viewer and try again." I give in!
[08:13] <falap-> fyrestrtr: ok. thanks. the mouse has been connected all the time.
[08:13] <XKnight> fyrestrtr, if its to be used with Apache also its actually safer to build all 3 parts that way you know the links are all set .. I have seen it that the libphp5.so which is included in the install to the httpd.conf moan about symbal issues
[08:13] <fyrestrtr> santa99: put shutdown -h now in it
[08:13] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr its a good book but i dont think its the right one for working around ubuntu :(
[08:13] <santa99> fyrestrtr, but shutdown needs root rights
[08:14] <fyrestrtr> jwhayman: its probably out dated too. Always, always, always check if the package is available.
[08:14] <fyrestrtr> santa99: so? run the script with sudo :)
[08:14] <santa99> fyrestrtr, do i have to enter the password then  ?
[08:14] <ubuntu_newbie> Foobal: I think it's something with the disk because it's telling to run fdisk.
[08:14] <ubuntu_newbie> or anything like that
[08:14] <jwhayman> fyrestrtr thanks ill try uninstalling and reinstalling :)
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> XKnight: OR -- you can just install the php5 lib from the repos, and use the a2enmod to enable it :)
[08:15] <srikanth> santa99, ya if u enter sudo then u have to enter the admin pass
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> santa99: yes.
[08:15] <Vilkacis> Very simple, very quick:  Installing an FTP server that I can use winscp to log into my linux box and put some files in there.
[08:15] <XKnight> fyrestrtr, not with undeclared symbals
[08:15] <stefg> ubuntu_newbie: do you have a live-CD that you can boot from?
[08:15] <XKnight> Apache wont start with it
[08:15] <ubuntu_newbie> stefg: yes I have
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> Vilkacis: you don't need a ftp server for winscp. Just sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[08:15] <Foobal> ubuntu_newbie: okay, then fire up the cd, open a terminal and like "sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/hda1" , ext3 being your filesystem and hda1 your hard disc partition device
[08:15] <_fluffee> Hello.  I have Ubby installed on a Thinkpad 600 and am attempting to use a Netgear WG511T in 'G' mode.  Try as I might Ubby provides only 'B' options.  How do I tell Ubby that 'G' is what I want?
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> Vilkacis: then login with your regular username and password.
[08:16] <santa99> fyrestrtr, can i go around this ? i don't want to enter the password
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> XKnight: its been working here fine since 5.10
[08:16] <lufis> Can someone tell me an easy way of combining a bunch of html files into one?
[08:16] <srikanth> santa99, why?
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> santa99: why are you writing a script to shutdown in the first place?
[08:16] <Foobal> ubuntu_newbie: if you can't remember which one is which, try "cat /proc/partitions" to get a list of all of the partitions you have.. also "fdisk /dev/hda" and "p" will show you the types of the partitions (read the help page first though, it suggests it when you start it)
[08:16] <Vilkacis> fyrestrtr: Trying that now.
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> lufis: cp file1.html+file2.html+file3.html cobined.html
[08:16] <XKnight> fyrestrtr, im not doubting it but in my many years of experience with distros they dont seem to do stuff quite right so hand building is normally the safest route.
[08:17] <stefg> ubuntu_newbie: so don't put your date at risk. boot from the Live CD and check the harddisk from there. if you forgot your root password you can set it from there also
[08:17] <lufis> fyrestrtr: Great, thanks so much.
[08:17] <Vilkacis> fyrestrtr: Excellent, it's working. Thank you.
[08:17] <fyrestrtr> XKnight: I'm with you, but in #ubuntu -- we don't encourage "hand building" anything.
[08:17] <mwe> does anyone know how you're supposed to update vmware tools, install over the current version or uninstall first?
[08:17] <Foobal> no, he did not forget his root password. ubuntu is rootless and that's a bug that the rescue mode asks for a password that is actually for the whole time random generated garble
[08:17] <woodwizzle> sound converter requires gstreamer 0.8. Can I make it work with 0.10 ?
[08:17] <MarcN> Anyone running SELinux on Ubuntu?  It was the topic at our LUG last night (given by Red Hat) and wonder how well it is integrated in Dapper.
[08:18] <Ballsy> mwe, I would definitely uninstall the old, and then install the new
[08:18] <Foobal> MarcN: it's not in Dapper. dapper has practically no new security oriented features.
[08:18] <bonsai> how do i enable dma for an external ide via usb?
[08:18] <Foobal> (the libraries are prepared for it though)
[08:18] <mwe> Ballsy: yes probably
[08:18] <santa99> fyrestrtr, this is because there is no shutdown button shown in my logout menu so i have to logout and shutdown from login manager
[08:18] <fyrestrtr> santa99: are you using xgl?
[08:18] <santa99> srikanth, this is because there is no shutdown button shown in my logout menu so i have to logout and shutdown from login manager
[08:19] <miguelsr> hye some one know how to eliminate mozilla?
[08:19] <santa99> fyrestrtr, yeah thats the reason for it
[08:19] <MarcN> Foobal: hmm, must be picking up selinux packages from universe/multiverse
[08:19] <Foobal> MarcN: I'd guess all you had to do was to change the kernel + make the policies + label the fs and it would work, but that's only my guess. I doubt not many are running it
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> santa99: that's a bug in xgl, look in the compiz forums.
[08:19] <santa99> ok
[08:19] <IseeIsee> earlier in the day I was installing Eclipse & it was downloading packages, I stopped it to resume it later, right now when I opened my Add/Remove programs and when I click Eclipse it says "Eclipse is not available in any software channel" ?
[08:19] <Foobal> MarcN: quite honestly I'd steal the policies and their configuration tools from Fedora, they are some couple years ahead the other distros
[08:20] <Im-Bored> chmod 666 Im-Bored
[08:20] <SogniX> how do I get rid of the forced-password entry (ala-vista) in gnome? it's pissing me off! >:O
[08:20] <srikanth> santa99, then right click on the taskbar &select option add to panel then search for halting button
[08:20] <fyrestrtr> SogniX: you can't get rid of it, its a security feature.
[08:20] <Foobal> SogniX: gdmsetup
[08:20] <ubuntu_newbie> thank you
[08:20] <SogniX> ARGH
[08:20] <MarcN> Foobal: right, deciding on a policy is the big PITA.  Red Hat is taking the approach of locking down system processes (bind, apache, most daemons running as root, etc) to prevent them from touching stuff in /home/      User files are unrestricted.
[08:20] <srikanth> santa99, are u trying it??
[08:20] <santa99> srikanth, yeah trying it
[08:21] <MarcN> Foobal: lots of work it seems for a distro to add SELinux
[08:21] <srikanth> santa99, just type logout (or)quit
[08:21] <Foobal> MarcN: Fedora's is like nothing is restricted but they make targeted policies for daemons and such - and they are pretty tight. also they use the FLAGS, you can reconfigure some things (like compatiblity features) without having to re-label the fs - and they provide handy GUIs for it too
[08:22] <santa99> srikanth, I'm not missing the logout button I'm missing the shutdown button when i pressed the quit button
[08:22] <MarcN> Foobal: right, that is what there were talking about.  still someone needs to write the policies and decide on a default policy model.
[08:22] <fyrestrtr> santa99: as I have told you before, this is a xgl issue. Take it in #ubuntu-xgl or #xgl or check the compiz forums.
[08:22] <srikanth> santa99, u got the icon?
[08:22] <whadar> heya
[08:23] <Foobal> MarcN: well, it's sane when it's by default unlocked.. you can build it piece by piece without interfering with the rest.. Fedora was the first one to go that way afaik
[08:23] <ubuntu_newbie> thank you all, I will try booting the cd
[08:23] <srikanth> santa99, then to shutdown the system u must be a super(0r)admin user
[08:23] <srikanth> santa99, then simply type halt
[08:23] <santa99> fyrestrtr, yeah i know not talking with you i am talking with srikanth
[08:24] <santa99> srikanth,  type halt were ?
[08:24] <santa99> srikanth, in a terminal
[08:24] <IseeIsee> sorry I was dc, if someone replied to my earlier post, please paste it again
[08:24] <Foobal> MarcN: for the having to change a few libraries and having to recompile a few applications the largest obstacle is just general resistance against change.. a lot of developers are quite resistant to change, surprisingly..
[08:24] <srikanth> santa99, ya
[08:25] <srikanth> santa99, but to use this cmd u must be a super user
[08:25] <IseeIsee> "Eclipse is not available in any software channel" ?
[08:25] <_fluffee> Has anyone gotten 'G' wireless to work at all?
[08:25] <bad_chitah> is there ne package for latex editor
[08:25] <bad_chitah> ??
[08:25] <Foobal> _fluffee: it'll be easier if you install the network-manager, after your drivers work.
[08:25] <santa99> srikanth, thats the problem i have
[08:26] <IseeIsee> please I need a solution badly
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: use synaptic, or type sudo apt-get install eclipse from the terminal
[08:26] <santa99> srikanth,  i want to go around this
[08:26] <Foobal> bad_chitah: "kile" is the best I think, but it's kde/qt application.. I haven't seen so far usable gnome latex editor
[08:26] <fyrestrtr> _fluffee: sure, it works here.
[08:26] <lopa> What exactly is the GECOS field in the ubuntu (or debian) /etc/passwd?
[08:26] <bad_chitah> thnx
[08:26] <srikanth> santa99, first type sudo su
[08:26] <srikanth> santa99, ok?
[08:27] <santa99> srikanth, ok
[08:27] <srikanth> santa99, then u have to enter u r password
[08:27] <fyrestrtr> srikanth: do not tell people to set the superuser password.
[08:27] <_fluffee> Foobal- I installed with a 'B' card in the machine, which does work.  Therefore I presume I've got network-manager?  If so, how do I tell it to get new or other drivers for 'G' on same card?
[08:27] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, why?
[08:27] <lopa> Any ideas?
[08:27] <santa99> srikanth, you don't understand my problem at all
[08:27] <IseeIsee> fyrestrt: it says "couldn't find package"
[08:27] <fyrestrtr> srikanth: because its not a supported configuration in ubuntu. There is a reason root login is disabled.
[08:28] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, ya i know
[08:28] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, i think it is a bug
[08:28] <fyrestrtr> srikanth: then don't tell people to circumvent it.
[08:28] <_fluffee> fyrestrtr - Thanks.  Hoping to get clue &c, please feel free to offer insight.
[08:28] <Foobal> _fluffee: what you're mostly lacking is the gui stuff or you haven't noticed it. apt-get install network-manager etc?
[08:28] <fyrestrtr> srikanth: errm, no, its not a bug.
[08:28] <whadar> does anything else beside the homedir and temp stuff is changed during a non-root user session?
[08:29] <fyrestrtr> _fluffee: to be honest, b/g support is very dependent on the drivers you use. Luckily, I use ipw2200 drivers, which support g for my laptop.
[08:30] <_fluffee> Foobal - I have a 'Network settings' applet, checking apt now...
[08:30] <aqau_inter_fly> I am trying to get my linksys wireless adapter to work. I am on a site, that says before i do anything, i need to apply the following pacakges:  build-essential, linux-header-2.6.15-23-386, and linux-kernel-headers...how do i do this?
[08:30] <IseeIsee> by the way I was using Ubuntu and my electricty went out twice and when I restarted there is no Hard Disk Scan or Error check anything etc like in windows ?
[08:30] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, If any person know the password of a person he can become the root user by typing sudo su;Actually The root account is opened by 'su'But the properties of both are same &sudo su ,login user having same passwd
[08:31] <Xnix> anyone in here used ptunnel?
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-header-`uname -r` linux-kernel-headers <-- type all that in a terminal
[08:31] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, i think u  know it
[08:31] <sorush20> guys is there a gui for rsync?
[08:31] <aqau_inter_fly> ok
[08:31] <lufis> I have a bunch of html files in a directory. I would like to combine them into one file. Any ideas on how to do this?
[08:32] <fyrestrtr> srikanth: no, just because you know the password of someone, doesn't mean you can become the root user. In order to use sudo -- you need to be in a group that has access to sudo. I can create a user account that cannot sudo and give you the password :P
[08:32] <erUSUL> lufis: 'man cat'
[08:33] <whadar> how can i monitor fs activity? (read/writes)
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> lufis: 'man cp'
[08:33] <lufis> erUSUL: I'm kind of in a hurry, can you just tell me how to do it?
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> whadar: install the system monitor applet in your panel, then edit its properties to include hard disk activity.
[08:33] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  when i type all that in, a line comes up that says Password:
[08:33] <srikanth> fyrestrtr, how to restrict an user ??(permitions)
[08:33] <erUSUL> lufis: hint 'cat file_1.html.....file_n.html' > bigfile.html
[08:33] <aqau_inter_fly> However, I can't type anything there
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: type your password :)
[08:33] <lufis> fyrestrtr: I tried the method you told me before, but there's a huge amount of files and it wouldn't work using wildcards
[08:34] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: when you type, it won't show * or anything, just type your password, and hit enter.
[08:34] <whadar> fyrestrtr: i need more specific information... like which files were written
[08:35] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr: no, it doesn't even do anything when i type
[08:35] <rarj> is there any way to play prince of persia 3d in ubuntu ?
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> whadar: hrmm, for that I need you'd need to install a filesystem-specific monitor.
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: its not going to do anything, you just type your password, and hit enter
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: then it should do something.
[08:36] <aqau_inter_fly> oh ok
[08:36] <aqau_inter_fly> lol
[08:36] <aqau_inter_fly> it worked
[08:37] <IseeIsee> was using Ubuntu and my electricty went out twice and when I restarted there is no Hard Disk Scan or Error check anything etc like in windows ?
[08:37] <lufis> erUSUL: Thank you so much! I tried it, worked!
[08:37] <_fluffee> Foobal - Am d/l something now using the apt-get network-manager &c., it's including something with dhcp in the name.  Already had that, and working.  *confused*
[08:37] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  when i hit enter on password it says:
[08:37] <fowlduck> IseeIsee, by default ubuntu uses ext3, which recovers gracefully due to journaling
[08:37] <lufis> erUSUL: Saved me a hell of a lot of work
[08:37] <aqau_inter_fly> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:37] <aqau_inter_fly> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:37] <Riyonuk> How come when I make a partion in windows for my new ubuntu installation, ubuntu wont let me install on it? So I make a partion with ubuntu and when I go to windows, it doesnt recgonize it
[08:38] <fowlduck> aqau_inter_fly, close synaptic
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: close synaptic first, then try it again
[08:38] <lopa> What exactly is the GECOS field in the ubuntu (or debian) /etc/passwd?
[08:38] <aqau_inter_fly> ahhh got it okay
[08:38] <SheaTara_> IseeIsee: ext3 (ubuntu's default file system) uses atomic file manipulations and journalling (AKAIK), meaning that restarting never corrupts files
[08:38] <rarj>  is there any way to play prince of persia 3d in ubuntu ?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> rarj: look up the game at winehq.org to see how compatible it is with linux.
[08:39] <IseeIsee> fowlduck: so you mean ext3 is something which takes care of errors & stuff without even running a scandisk sort of thing in front ?
[08:39] <sorush20> is there a very good gui backup program around that would allow me to select specific folders in my home directory to be backed up ?
[08:39] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  now it says:
[08:39] <aqau_inter_fly> Reading package lists... Done
[08:39] <aqau_inter_fly> Building dependency tree... Done
[08:39] <aqau_inter_fly> E: Couldn't find package linux-header-2.6.15-23-386
[08:39] <rarj> fyrestrtr, thanks :)
[08:39] <fowlduck> IseeIsee, yep, it's the filesystem.  It keeps track of changes and rolls back any that aren't completed
[08:39] <IseeIsee> SheaTara: i'm not talking about restarting, i'm talking about sudden power failures
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: if you create a partition in Windows and don't *format* it, then ubuntu should recognize it and be able to install on it.
[08:40] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: IseeIsee, no ext3 is like a replacement for NTFS or FAT, it simple immule to power-offs and power failures
[08:40] <Riyonuk> hmm
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r` linux-kernel-headers <-- type all that in a terminal
[08:40] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: it applys ti every time the computer shuts off, expectedly or not
[08:40] <IseeIsee> SheaTara: thats why I'm saying shouldn't Ubuntu run a scandisk on restarting after a power failure ?
[08:40] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: Reiserfs does the same
[08:41] <IseeIsee> right
[08:41] <IseeIsee> ok I've a small problem
[08:41] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: I does not need to, it keeps track of everything it did, needs to do, and did not do though the journal
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> also, after a few restarts, ubuntu will automatically scan the disk for inconsistenties, I believe the default number of restarts is 29 or something. You can change that though.
[08:41] <Riyonuk> can ubuntu resize partions?
[08:41] <Riyonuk> http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html
[08:42] <IseeIsee> I'm trying to build a java project using java wireless toolkit but I while building i get a Java IO Exception that a sudden exe file execution failed, I guess its due to access rights
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: gparted can :)
[08:42] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: effectively, it "scandisk"s every time you boot, it's just that it takes around 1/2 a second
[08:42] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr: so now do i have to do like a seperate command for build-essential?
[08:42] <Riyonuk> whats gparted?
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: no, you are done with all that, you can move to the next step.
[08:42] <IseeIsee> Riyonuk: gpater is a partitioning software
[08:42] <ubuntu_newbie> fyrestrtr: i'm booting from the Live CD now, if I change the root password from it, it will affect the installed system?
[08:42] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr: Okay thanks a lot
[08:42] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: if you are familiar with the CLI, chmod +x will help
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu_newbie: you will need to change the root password of the installed system, not the livecd.
[08:43] <Riyonuk> is it free?
[08:43] <IseeIsee> SheaTara I did the chmod but it still doesn't works
[08:43] <SheaTara> !info gparted
[08:43] <ubotu> gparted: partition editor for GNOME. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu9 (dapper), package size 232 kB, installed size 1280 kB
[08:43] <gatekeeper> gotta love linux filesystems
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: yes
[08:43] <SheaTara> Riyonuk: see what ubotu said
[08:43] <Riyonuk> cool and its small
[08:43] <Riyonuk> I cant use it though
[08:43] <IseeIsee> SheaTara can I do a chmod +x on a whole directory ?
[08:43] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: try chmod a+x then
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> eh? why not?
[08:43] <Riyonuk> I need it to make a partiton for ubuntu(Im on windows) and you need to run it in ubuntu
[08:44] <ubuntu_newbie> fyrestrtr: but it can check the disk right?
[08:44] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: it's more complex than that
[08:44] <Riyonuk> how does that work?
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu_newbie: yeah it can do that.
[08:44] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: +x on a directory means you can enter it
[08:44] <gatekeeper> riyonuk you need partition magic
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: use the disk manager in Windows. Right click on My Computer -> Manage -> Storage
[08:44] <Riyonuk> yeah thats what I was thinking
[08:44] <Riyonuk> umm disk manager cant resize
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: although that won't resize, it will allow you to create new partitions on disks.
[08:44] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: +x recursively (-R) is dangerous if you are not sure what you are doinbg
[08:45] <IseeIsee> SheaTara what does a+x means ?
[08:45] <gatekeeper> riyonuk: you need partition magic
[08:45] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: fwiw, the install process in ubuntu can resize windows partitions. Just make sure you run fdisk on them first.
[08:45] <fyrestrtr> s/fdisk/defrag
[08:45] <IseeIsee> SheaTara: no it still doesn't works
[08:45] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: a simply means "all" or "everyone", so you are giving "x" (executable) permissions to "all"
[08:45] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: then I'd check the java
[08:46] <IseeIsee> but it mentions the exe file name in the exception
[08:46] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: .exe?
[08:46] <IseeIsee> java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: /media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: cannot execute
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: did you say 'sudden *exe* file execution failed'?
[08:46] <SheaTara> IseeIsee:  exe does not run on linux, *exe* is a windows executable
[08:47] <Riyonuk> umm is the 3rd version out yet?
[08:47] <IseeIsee> I mean in its properties it says "executable"
[08:47] <IseeIsee> application/x-executable
[08:47] <SheaTara> Riyonuk: say --> !info gparted  <-- it says the version #
[08:48] <Riyonuk> no no
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: what do you get when you type file nameoffile ?
[08:48] <Riyonuk> I mean of ubuntu
[08:48] <Riyonuk> I lost my cs
[08:48] <Riyonuk> *cd
[08:48] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: that does not mean that it means it's an executable for /linux/ though.
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: no, not yet.
[08:49] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: is the /*.exe*/ file actually a java file?
[08:49] <Riyonuk> when should I expect it to be out? Im gonna request a free cd
[08:49] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: preverify: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Lin ux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, not stripp ed
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: best to ask in #ubuntu+1
[08:49] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: sounds like linux to me
[08:49] <IseeIsee> SheaTara no its not a java file, its part of the J2ME Wireless Toolkit
[08:50] <ic56> IseeIsee: are you running on a powerPC computer or other non-intel CPU?
[08:50] <IseeIsee> I just downloaded the j2me wireless toolkit & extracted it
[08:50] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: what happens when you type ./media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify
[08:50] <IseeIsee> oh 1 point may be important I'm running it in a separate drive which is FAT32
[08:50] <Riyonuk> thanks
[08:50] <_fluffee> Foobal - I don't seem to have gained anything: I appear to have only WEP option, no WPA, I see nothing new in menus, and wireless assistant now says it needs sudo but does not offer oppt'y to enter password.  'sudo wlass[whatever] ' says it can't find an xserver.  Am I done for, d'ya think?
[08:51] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: :-| -- Lost on this probalem -- keep asking -- maybe someone else know
[08:51] <ic56> fyrestrtr: ./media/...  sounds like an incorrect pathname.  Perhaps you meant /media/...
[08:51] <Riyonuk> sorry if Im asking too many questions
[08:51] <Riyonuk> how come dial-up doesnt work with ubuntu?
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> ic56: 21:46 < IseeIsee> java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: /media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: cannot execute
[08:51] <bderrly|work> Riyonuk, what makes you think it doesn't?
[08:51] <SheaTara> Riyonuk: that's very general
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: because winmodems are crap :)
[08:51] <SheaTara> Riyonuk: it works for some
[08:52] <Riyonuk> I couldnt get it to woek
[08:52] <Riyonuk> *work
[08:52] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: I did
[08:52] <IseeIsee> tfm@tfm-desktop:/media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin$ media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify
[08:52] <IseeIsee> bash: media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: No such file or directory
[08:52] <Riyonuk> of course I had no idea what I was doing
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> you forgot the ./
[08:52] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: it has to start with a /
[08:52] <pppoe_dude> how can i use ddns if i'm behind a router and my router doesnt support that specific ddns provider?
[08:52] <ic56> IseeIsee: you missed the leading slash in the pathname.  Try the command again
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: it has to start with a ./ the . is important
[08:52] <bderrly|work> Riyonuk, built-in modem on the motherboard?
[08:53] <IseeIsee> bash: ./media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/preverify: No such file or directory
[08:53] <IseeIsee> same answer
[08:53] <Riyonuk> nah, its PCI
[08:53] <joeljkp> i'm looking for ideas of places to host videos i've converted to ogg
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: that preverify is not there then.
[08:53] <bderrly|work> IseeIsee, use tab for file name completion
[08:53] <PKR_> hey i just installed ubuntu and i wonder how i fix so that i can open RAR files.. anybody know?
[08:53] <bderrly|work> Riyonuk, have you checked a modem status list for your particular model?
[08:54] <ic56> fyrestrtr: why do you instruct IseeIsee to use a dot?  You are assuming his current directory is the root.  Even if it happens to be so now, why give him instructions that won't work from a different directory?
[08:54] <bderrly|work> PKR_, sudo apt-get install unrar
[08:54] <IseeIsee> fyrestrti: it is I can see the file
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> PKR_: you should be able to double click them.
[08:54] <MystaMax> i need to make sure that mysql is running on the correct port, how do I do that w/ netstat?
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> ic56: dude, the . is to execute the file, not current directory :P
[08:54] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, netstat -tapn |grep mysql
[08:54] <Riyonuk> I dont know how
[08:54] <PKR_> It says that the archive type is not supported.
[08:54] <ic56> fyrestrtr: your understanding of . is incorrect.
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: cd into that directory, and then run it.
[08:55] <PKR_> bderrly|work: should i write that in the terminal?
[08:55] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: I did
[08:55] <bderrly|work> PKR_, yes
[08:55] <IseeIsee> I need a pastebin to show output
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> ic56: oh .... (looks above at what he wrote) ... yeah, you are right.
[08:55] <ic56> fyrestrtr: as pathname component, a . means the current directory
[08:55] <ic56> fyrestrtr: ok
[08:55] <PKR_> bderrly|work: It says that package unrar is not available
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: cd /media/hda7/wtk2.2/bin/ && ./preverify
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> PKR_: enable the universe and multiverse repositories
[08:56] <stefg> !rar
[08:56] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[08:56] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: here you go http://pastebin.4programmers.net/368
[08:56] <bderrly|work> PKR_, you need to add the multiverse repository
[08:57] <stefg> !repos
[08:57] <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
[08:57] <PKR_> thanks everybody for the help. i will try and do that
[08:57] <ubuntu_newbie> ok, it worked, now how do I change the user password?
[08:57] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: please, don't send me to a pastebin site that has popups.
[08:57] <joeljkp> i'm looking for ideas of places to host videos i've converted to ogg
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: well, there is nothing wrong with your permissions then, something is wrong with what you are compiling.
[08:58] <nkryptr_25> hi there... can anyone help me... i am trying to share an internet connection between 2 computers ... both running ubuntu 6.06... i have set up dhcp server and my second computer can now connect to the internet but the speed is really slow... anyone have any ideas?
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> joeljkp: youtube?
[08:58] <IseeIsee> fyrestrti: I don't know whether this site has popups or not, you can check
[08:58] <joeljkp> fyrestrtr: they'll convert to flash, though
[08:58] <SheaTara> !pastebin > IseeIsee
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: it does, that's why I'm telling you :P
[08:58] <IseeIsee> SheaTara: ?
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> joeljkp: hrmm, might try places like imageshack.us
[08:59] <MystaMax> thanks pppoe_dude, mysql isn't being listed. Would that mean its not running? Even though, i can ssh to the box, and enter the mysql CLI?
[08:59] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: you done J2ME programming ?
[08:59] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: ubotu shoudl have given you a "private message"
[08:59] <Riyonuk> is bootmagic like grub?
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: nope.
[08:59] <IseeIsee> !pastebin > IseeIsee
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: yes, same idea.
[08:59] <IseeIsee> SheaTara, I don't get it ?
[08:59] <gatekeeper_> nkryptr_25: I have seen a howto to do that on the ubuntu forums that might be worth having a look at
[08:59] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, can you login remotely to mysql directly?
[08:59] <SheaTara> un another tab?
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: it might mean its only listening on localhost (as is the default setup) and not your ip address.
[09:00] <ic56> fyrestrtr: lynx ignored the popups at IseeIsee's pastebin site.  The directory exists, the file executed and displayed its help message.
[09:00] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: nevermind, I'll just do thyis
[09:00] <SheaTara> !pastebin
[09:00] <Riyonuk> alright cause Im downloading partiton magic
[09:00] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[09:00] <SheaTara> IseeIsee: ^^
[09:00] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax,  tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:3306          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     32690/mysqld
[09:00] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  Ok I'm installing an rt73 driver for my wireless device, but I'm on a site that is actually for debian, and it tells me to type this command: cp rt73.ko /lib/modules/2.6.8-2-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/...but when I do that it says: cp: target `/lib/modules/2.6.8-2-386/kernel/drivers/net/' is not a directory: No such file or directory.
[09:00] <ic56> fyrestrtr: file ./preverify I mean
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> ic56: yes I saw it, thanks :)
[09:00] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, this is what you shouldve gotten
[09:00] <MystaMax> pppoe_dude, No I'm trying to set up mysql so that I can access it from any server on our domain
[09:00] <aqau_inter_fly> I was wondering if this command needs to be different for Ubuntu
[09:00] <MystaMax> pppoe_dude, yea it isnt listed
[09:01] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: ermm .... have you checked out the wiki for wireless or the ubuntu forums first?
[09:01] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, then you probably have a configuration error if its running already
[09:01] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: did you disable networking on it?
[09:01] <Riyonuk> gnome is like ubuntu's shell right?
[09:01] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: someone may already have this problem solved.
[09:01] <MystaMax> fyrestrtr, on the mysql server?
[09:02] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: yeah.
[09:02] <nkryptr_25> gatekeeper_: cheers, i'll have a look there
[09:02] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: no, gnome is a desktop environment.
[09:02] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  well umm i've checked the forum, and then only thing i've found is to go to the site that im at right now...
[09:02] <Riyonuk> ? same thing right?
[09:02] <MystaMax> fyrestrtr, no I can access other network resources from the box.
[09:02] <gatekeeper_> nkryptr_25: good luck :-)
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: on your machine its probably /lib/modules/linux-`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/
[09:03] <nkryptr_25> gatekeeper_: ty :)
[09:03] <aqau_inter_fly> oh yeah...
[09:03] <Secsefirot> hi!!!
[09:03] <MystaMax> pppoe_dude, tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:3306          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
[09:03] <MystaMax> thats what i got
[09:03] <gatekeeper_> nkryptr_25: yw :-)
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: ah, you misunderstood me. You can disable networking in *mysql* itself, so it never listens on a port.
[09:03] <Riyonuk> fyrestrtr: so gnome is like the arrow/icons?
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: oh, according to that, mysql is running fine and is listening on localhost only.
[09:03] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, that means its listening on port 3306
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> Riyonuk: yes :)
[09:04] <MystaMax> fyrestrtr, oh really. I did not know that
[09:04] <derekS> anyone have a tutorial on setting up an imap server?
[09:04] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, and on local host...
[09:04] <IseeIsee> fyrestrtr: but why was it saying file or directory does not exists initially
[09:04] <IseeIsee> ?
[09:04] <MystaMax> fyrestrtr, pppoe_dude so I can only access it locally?
[09:04] <ballpointcarrot> derekS: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57157
[09:04] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, the 127.0.0.1:3306 would be *:3306 if it was listening on all interfaces
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> IseeIsee: I don't know, maybe its not talking about preverify -- something else.
[09:05] <MystaMax> pppoe_dude, I see
[09:05] <ubuntu_newbie> I'm running ubuntu 5.10, can I update it to ubuntu 6 without losing data?
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> MystaMax: for now, yes. You can edit its configuration to have it listen on another IP address.
[09:05] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, or something of that sort.
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> ubuntu_newbie: yes.
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> !upgrade > ubuntu_newbie
[09:05] <pppoe_dude> MystaMax, you need to configure mysql properly
[09:05] <MystaMax> pppoe_dude, fyrestrtr, thanks guys! very helpful
[09:06] <ubuntu_newbie> !upgrade
[09:06] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[09:06] <derekS> ballpointcarrot: thanks
[09:06] <gatekeeper_> ubuntu_newbie: yes I would suggest using the update-manager, it was the most successfull for me but probable still worth while backing up
[09:06] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr: how to get permission to lib/modules/2.16.15-23-386/kernel/net/?
[09:07] <aqau_inter_fly> cuz when i try to co-py a file to there is wsaid permission denied
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> aqau_inter_fly: type 'sudo' before the command.
[09:07] <aqau_inter_fly> okay
[09:07] <derekS> ballpointcarrot: whats offline imap?
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> sudo cp blah blah blah
[09:07] <bderrly|work> aqau_inter_fly, why are you trying to copy a file to that directory?
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> then enter your password (remember, it won't show anything) and hit enter.
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> who in there right mind would fry eggs at 10 PM ??? I smell eggs being fried in my apartment.
[09:08] <VonGuard> hello
[09:08] <mALmEN> hello
[09:08] <mALmEN> i ill install ubuntu 6.06 now
[09:08] <VonGuard> firefox is ludicrously slow at looking up DNS for me
[09:08] <VonGuard> i'm running dapper
[09:08] <VonGuard> the rest of my network is nice and fast with dns, and using the same servers
[09:08] <VonGuard> should i disable ipv6?
[09:09] <Riyonuk> wga? Dapper is the next version?
[09:09] <mALmEN> ubuntu install drivers from speed toutch for defaul ? :X
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> VonGuard: maybe your primary dns server is down and its waiting on the secondary one?
[09:09] <Riyonuk> I thought Badger was
[09:09] <VonGuard> doubt it, this has been a problem for a while
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> VonGuard: yeap, disable ipv6 -- there is a wiki entry on that.
[09:09] <VonGuard> pinging a server by name is fast
[09:09] <VonGuard> looking it up in firefox is slow
[09:09] <VonGuard> happen to have the link to the wiki page?
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> ermm, let me see if I do.
[09:10] <VonGuard> i found one listing and the file they showed being modified was not the same on my machine
[09:10] <VonGuard> thanks!
[09:10] <joeljkp> i'm looking for ideas of places to host videos i've converted to ogg
[09:10] <VonGuard> archive.org
[09:11] <ballpointcarrot> derekS: it's a way to access the same account from multiple systems
[09:11] <dmesg> hi

[09:11] <ballpointcarrot> derekS: http://freshmeat.net/projects/offlineimap/
[09:12] <derekS> ballpointcarrot: thats not really what i want though
[09:12] <VonGuard> thanks fyrestrtr !
[09:12] <derekS> ballpointcarrot: i just want a plain imap server
[09:12] <bderrly|work> uw-imap
[09:12] <ballpointcarrot> derekS: just a simple mail server?
[09:12] <derekS> yeah
[09:12] <derekS> imap
[09:13] <ballpointcarrot> http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ <- mail server w/ courier imap base
[09:13] <bderrly|work> !info uw-imapd

[09:14] <derekS> thanks guys!
[09:15] <azureal> hi, when you install a package w/ apt-get, how do you specify a specific version?
[09:16] <void^> azureal: you need to have multiple repos for a package, i.e. apt-cache policy <package> must be reporting several version. you can use apt-get install <package>=version
[09:16] <linuzo> Does anyone here have a howto or know a forum that has anything about setting up a mp3 server with ubuntu
[09:16] <linuzo> ?
[09:17] <mth12> anyone had trobule with shifting between CRT/LCD, this is on a Dell Inspiropn 1150, with ubunto 6.06
[09:18] <azureal> ah, the = sign
[09:19] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  I was told to type in : vi /etc/modprobe.conf, and it creates a new document which i have to type in "alias rausb0 rt73"...now what do i do to save it from terminal?
[09:19] <VonGuard> ah, disabling ipv6 works great
[09:19] <VonGuard> thanks fyrestrtr
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> hit esc then type :wq and hit enter
[09:20] <VonGuard> why is ipv6 so wonky in dapper?
[09:20] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: two capital Zs will save and exit
[09:20] <darich> I'm listening to "Maa Bonny lad" by Jason Molina, Will Oldham, Alasdair Roberts
[09:20] <caro> ola
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> its not ipv6, its just that it uses ipv6 by default, and not all dns servers are setup for ipv6. If your isp uses ipv6, it would be faster than ipv4 :)
[09:21] <mth12> azureal: the = sign?
[09:21] <VonGuard> ah
[09:21] <VonGuard> ok
[09:21] <caro> como te llamas
[09:21] <driggers> hi.  i have a satellite 2450 w/ Ubuntu DD.  there is a mini firewire plug that doesn't work.  not sure where to start.
[09:21] <VonGuard> so my isp hasn't updated its dns servers in a while
[09:21] <IseeIse1> fyrestrtr: I put an empty .java file in the project and build it, it still giving me an io exception
[09:21] <fyrestrtr> they just aren't using ipv6, only ipv4 :)
[09:21] <VonGuard> weren't we all supposed to be on v6 by 2006 already?
[09:21] <fyrestrtr> IseeIse1: ask someone that knows more about java :)
[09:22] <IseeIse1> right
[09:22] <VonGuard> does that empty file need some sort of headers and stuff?
[09:22] <VonGuard> java's very chatty like that
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> depends on your locale, I think the us govt. is supposed to be on ipv6 by 2008.
[09:22] <VonGuard> ah, ok.
[09:22] <VonGuard> well thanks again
[09:22] <VonGuard> that slowness was driving me nuts
[09:23] <ic56> fyrestrtr: I wonder if IseeIse1 might be running java under a chroot, causing the pathnames to become invalid.  I have no experience with that so I can't advise how to investigate.
[09:23] <technel> I have been trying out several PDF viewers, epdfview, xpdf, and that one that comes with Ubuntu, but all of them seem to do something I hate. When you reach the bottom of the page, they go to the next page. This is really hard for me because I like to scroll down past the bottom of the page, but keep reading the bottom. I like when it just shows page after page so for example you could scroll half way between two pages
[09:23] <technel> Any programs that do this?
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> technel: tried the official reader from acrobat?
[09:24] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  do you think you could take a look at this site http://funcation.blogspot.com/ and help me with what i need to do
[09:24] <ic56> $u3: sure
[09:24] <technel> fyrestrtr, Not on linux, no. It is quite a large, slow program :\
[09:24] <phaedrus44> !lamp
[09:24] <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
[09:24] <aqau_inter_fly> fyrestrtr:  if your too busy then thats okay
[09:24] <ic56> $u3: sure
[09:24] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: sure
[09:24] <driggers> so... firewire...  jus wondering if anyone is thinking about my question :)?
[09:25] <mALmEN> anyone can tell to me if ubuntu 6.05 support speed toutch for default ?
[09:25] <mALmEN> or if i need install it  ? :X
[09:25] <fyrestrtr> technel: its best for sorting out pdfs though. I use it here with no noticable lag.
[09:25] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: wait...did you say you were going to help me
[09:25] <technel> fyrestrtr, 42mb just for a PDF viewer, heh
[09:25] <fyrestrtr> technel: its adobe, what can I tell ya :P
[09:25] <technel> fyrestrtr, Did you have to compile?
[09:25] <mALmEN> i want keet windows out, but dont know if need the drivers to speed toutchs,if need after install ubuntu cant download it with out internet connection
[09:25] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: I did, but only because I answered your vi question earlier
[09:25] <_fluffee> Okay- Re Wireless.  I now have four ways to not connect, and several of them are seemingly so poor that I must quit them and restart to change a setting.  I have browsed the wiki-thingy, and without a useful full-text Usenet like interface, and on a dial-up, well, .  Does anyone have a pointer to a how-to that works for wireless G using Netgear card?  Much appreciated.
[09:26] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: so are you on that site
[09:26] <emil> Hi Guys
[09:26] <gatekeeper_> hello
[09:26] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: oh, what the hey.  Ok. I'm on that site.  What's your question
[09:26] <bahadirt> hello guys
[09:26] <emil> The sound of flash files (dunno if it's everywere, but especcialy Youtube) doesn't work
[09:27] <aqau_inter_fly> i'm down to the vi /etc/modprobe.conf
[09:27] <bahadirt> to play mp3 files, which decoders I need to install
[09:27] <bahadirt> ?
[09:27] <Sicka> Good day everyone
[09:27] <aqau_inter_fly> what do i do on that step?
[09:27] <gatekeeper_> !mp3

[09:27] <Sicka> I need to know how I can install Fujitsu Cobol on Ubuntu, if anyone knows
[09:27] <technel> bahadirt, For MP3's: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[09:27] <emil> I've got a sound problem on Youtube
[09:28] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: press "i" to go into insert mode (nothing will happen on the screen)
[09:28] <LeonPhelps> greets all
[09:28] <emil> I've got a sound problem at Youtub
[09:28] <gatekeeper_> bahadirt: just install libxine-extracodecs and possible w32Codecs
[09:28] <IseeIse1> ic56: what is chroot ?
[09:29] <Sicka> How can I install Fujitsu Cobol on Ubuntu?
[09:29] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: then paste in the one liner from the website (you'll see it displayed).  The press the [ESC]  key on your keyboard (nothing will happen on the screen).  Then press ZZ
[09:29] <emil> I've got a soud problem on Youtube
[09:29] <Jowi> emil: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 /usr/lib/libesd.so.1
[09:29] <Jowi> emil: see if that helps
[09:29] <LeonPhelps> anyone good with video probs? My IBM Thinkpad A30P (ATI Radeon Mobility) is stuck at 640x480
[09:29] <emil> Jowi:  Thanks anyway
[09:30] <ic56> IseeIse1: chroot (CHange ROOT) is a mechanims of running a process in a restricted environment.  It causes parts of the filesystem to become invisible to the programs you are running.
[09:30] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  nothing happened when i pressed zz
[09:30] <Sicka> Would someone please tell me if there's a way to run Fujitsu Cobol on Ubuntu?
[09:30] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: capital Zs. not lowercase
[09:30] <IseeIse1> ahan
[09:31] <gatekeeper_> LeonPhelps: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg might help, not sure
[09:31] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  it says:
[09:31] <LeonPhelps> thx man
[09:31] <emil> Jowi: It doesn't work
[09:31] <HymnToLife> hi everyone, I have a problem with Apache on Dapper
[09:31] <aqau_inter_fly> "/etc/modprobe.conf" E212: Can't open file for writing
[09:31] <aqau_inter_fly> Hit ENTER or type command to continue
[09:31] <_fluffee> LeonPhelps - FWIW, a similar problem was amongst what drove me from other distribution to this one.  In that case I edited the config file manually and had joy.  Environment is a 600e Thinkpad.
[09:31] <HymnToLife> it just won't read my .htaccess files
[09:32] <Jowi> emil: did you restart x? (not sure if it is enough to restart firefox)
[09:32] <aqau_inter_fly> HymnToLife:  make sure you are reading hidden files because .htaccess files are often hidden
[09:32] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: ah, the instructions assume you are running with root permission.  Abort and re-start the vi.  To abort, type  :q!  (colon, lower case q, exclamation mark)
[09:32] <Sicka> SOMEONE PLEASE: Fujitsu Cobol on Ubuntu: Can it be done?
[09:33] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: then, use: sudo vi /etc/modprobe.conf
[09:33] <aqau_inter_fly> ok
[09:33] <t0dd> hey, why when I type ' sudo apt-get install build-essential ' (or pretty much any other known package), I get that it can't be found? I just installed ubuntu
[09:33] <emil> Jowi: How do i restart X?
[09:33] <aqau_inter_fly> i have to get used to that sudo command
[09:33] <gean> hi all !
[09:33] <ballpointcarrot> emil: Ctrl+Alt+backspace
[09:34] <phaedrus44> dude...seems tough to installa  web server...hhmm
[09:34] <Jowi> emil: this will log you out, so save any work. "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[09:34] <phaedrus44> i installed the lamp server
[09:34] <phaedrus44> and i dont have a clue from there...any tutorials?
[09:34] <HymnToLife> aqau_inter_fly, and how do I do that ?
[09:34] <aqau_inter_fly> HymnToLIfe:  good question, I've never used apache
[09:34] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: no you don't.  If you need to issue many commands with root privilege, you can just get yourself a root shell with: sudo -i  When you're done typing commands as root, type "exit" and you'll be back in your own shell.  you can tell because the prompt will change.  When you have root permission, the shell displays # instead of $ on its prompt
[09:34] <gean> can somebody PLEASE help me ?! yesterday i synaptic-installed the new Ununtu upgrade (6.06), now nothing works: no net recognition, no x !
[09:35] <HymnToLife> well, it's supposed to read them as long as they have the right chmod
[09:35] <gean> i was just rebooting after the new kernel install
[09:35] <gean> the new kernel is not recognited by the GRUB loader
[09:36] <Imme> How do I list my jobs and there id's in console?
[09:36] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: okay...cool...for the next step do i just do the same thing
[09:36] <gean> imme : ps -ef
[09:37] <gean> imme : ps -ef | grep firefox to get only firefox relevant stuff
[09:37] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: yes.  BTW, you don't *have* to use vi.  You can use any editor you like
[09:37] <Imme> thnx
[09:37] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: this file probably already exists so inserting the text in the right spot will be harder if you are uncomfortable with the editor
[09:38] <trev__> can anyone tell me how to enable text to speech funtions?
[09:38] <bahadirt> technel : thanks mate
[09:38] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  i think i got it but how do i enter insert mode again?
[09:38] <Lobster> use nano
[09:38] <gean> any GURU here ?! please help me restart my system after synaptic upgrade !
[09:38] <Lobster> its easyer ^^
[09:38] <aqau_inter_fly> cntrl+i?
[09:38] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: i to enter (i)nsert mode. [ESC]  to exit it
[09:39] <gean> any GURU here ?! No x, no internet connection. (Now i'm on a mashine at the other end of the faculty)
[09:39] <gean> #
[09:39] <t0dd> hey, why when I type ' sudo apt-get install build-essential ' (or pretty much any other known package), I get that it can't be found? I just installed ubuntu
[09:39] <ic56> gean: ask a more specific question
[09:39] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: for that step will  i have to change my address netmask gateway and broadcast
[09:39] <aqau_inter_fly> because i know mine is a little different
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> t0dd: sudo apt-get update and try it again
[09:40] <gean> t0dd : try : sudo bash : get a root window : type : apt-get -i bui<TABULATOR> to see recognized completions
[09:40] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: yes, if yours is different, change the text to match your config.
[09:41] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  umm problem though, i don't know what broadcast is
[09:41] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: to delete a character in vi when you are not in insert mode, press x
[09:41] <Tokeiito> good evening
[09:41] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: what is the address? I'll tell you what the broadcast address is
[09:42] <aqau_inter_fly> my adress is 192.168.
[09:42] <ubuntu> im trying to install grub from the ubuntu live-cd since i installed Windows, however; it complains about this Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[09:42] <aqau_inter_fly> whoops
[09:42] <lee-qid> hi there
[09:42] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: my adess is 192.168.1.101
[09:42] <Howitzer> any idea how to solve it?
[09:42] <lee-qid> does anybody of you have experience with multiple monitors and xrandr?
[09:42] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: then you broadcast address is most likely 192.168.1.255
[09:43] <aqau_inter_fly> okay
[09:43] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: then i push exit, ZZ
[09:43] <erUSUL> Howitzer: have you mounted your root partition?? have you runned chroot??
[09:43] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:right?
[09:43] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: what it *really* is depends on what all the other computers on your little network think.  It's a matter of agreement.
[09:43] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: yes.  Press [ESC]  to return to vi's command mode, then ZZ to save and exit
[09:44] <sam_> I installed ubuntu then after that added kde, now when my pc starts up it says kubuntu how do i change it back to ubuntu
[09:44] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  well i can always change this later right...if it isn't correct
[09:44] <fyrestrtr> sam_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:44] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: shouldn't you be writting down the vi commands you are learning?  How will you make corrections later?
[09:44] <sam_> ta
[09:44] <aqau_inter_fly> yeah i've learned them im just double checking
[09:45] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: cool
[09:45] <sam_> ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version.
[09:45] <gatekeeper_> t0dd: try looking for build-essential
[09:45] <sam_> will that fix it?
[09:45] <aqau_inter_fly> i=insert, x=erase, ZZ=save esc=return to command mode
[09:45] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: on this command, why are there two "vi"s
[09:45] <aqau_inter_fly> vi vi /etc/network/do_wep
[09:45] <XenonG> !KDE
[09:45] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: here's another: dd = delete current line
[09:45] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, or see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[09:46] <ardchoille> aqau_inter_fly: there should only be one
[09:46] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: yes, the two "vi"s is a typo -- use only one vi (and sudo if necessary)
[09:46] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: im in root mode
[09:46] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: maybe you can email the page's author to fix the typo
[09:46] <m0gsi> Hello all , tried to instal xubuntu at a friends house , and installer hanged half way through and gave a black screen with two grey blocks any ideas? pc is 3.06ghz dell
[09:46] <mALmEN> anyone can tell to me if ubuntu 6.05 support speed toutch for default ? i want keet windows out, but dont know if need the drivers to speed toutchs,if need after install ubuntu cant download it with out internet connection
[09:46] <aqau_inter_fly> actually i have him on my intant messenger because i was asking to help me but he didn't
[09:47] <webguy> when i do rm it leaves behind directories that have a file that starts with a . any way to prevent this so it deletes everyting?
[09:47] <skavenge> webguy: rm -rf will kill everything
[09:47] <m0gsi> Hello all , tried to instal xubuntu at a friends house , and installer hanged half way through and gave a black screen with two grey blocks any ideas? pc is 3.06ghz dell
[09:47] <sam_> is there a list you can see all the software you can install using sudo apt-get install?
[09:47] <fyrestrtr> !software
[09:47] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com  -  Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[09:48] <webguy> skavenge: rm -rf - will it delete directorises?
[09:48] <sam_> ta
[09:48] <skavenge> webguy: the whole directory and everything in it
[09:48] <ardchoille> sam_: That type of list in a term would scroll past your scrollback buffer
[09:48] <gnomefreak> sam_: synaptic
[09:48] <m0gsi> Hello all , tried to instal xubuntu at a friends house , and installer hanged half way through and gave a black screen with two grey blocks any ideas? pc is 3.06ghz dell
[09:48] <skavenge> you could do |more
[09:48] <webguy> so if i do rm -rf /home/htdocs will it delete the htdocs directory?
[09:48] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: email might be better than IM since it can stay in his do list.  You could also leave a comment on the blog, but he's unlikely to notice that.
[09:48] <skavenge> webguy: yup
[09:48] <gnomefreak> webguy: yep
[09:49] <webguy> what if i want to keep that actual diretory, but get rid of everything in it and all subdirectories
[09:49] <gean> any GURU here ?! please help me restart my system after synaptic upgrade ! NO X, NO (INTER)NET CONNECTION
[09:49] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: okay, before i do the last command should i plug in my adapter?
[09:49] <skavenge> webguy: cd into it and rm -rf *
[09:50] <webguy> i am doing it from a script skavenge
[09:50] <skavenge> dunno then
[09:50] <webguy> how about rm -rf /home/htdocs/*
[09:50] <m0gsi> any ideas any one?
[09:50] <XenonG> gean, you don't call them GURU anymore, you call them 1337 pro or Advanced Users.
[09:50] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: how big is the hdd?
[09:50] <skavenge> webguy: that may work yeah
[09:50] <gnomefreak> webguy: man rm
[09:50] <m0gsi> 40gb
[09:50] <m0gsi> Why gatekeeper_ ?
[09:51] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: yes, plugin the adaptor before issuing the restart
[09:51] <m0gsi> I'm using text install because i had a text based cd , from when i installed it to my server
[09:51] <webguy> gnomefreak: no such luck...  i have spent some time reading it over but it doesnt go into such simple things as this!
[09:51] <m0gsi> The cd is valid
[09:51] <gean> XenonG : ok, anybody with phone number 1337 here ?!
[09:51] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: that should be fine, try badblocks on it
[09:51] <m0gsi> How do you do that :P
[09:52] <m0gsi> We've tried installing twice but it hangs at the same place :(
[09:52] <mALmEN> anyone can tell to me if ubuntu 6.05 support speed toutch for default ? i want keet windows out, but dont know if need the drivers to speed toutchs,if need after install ubuntu cant download it with out internet connection
[09:52] <gean> an other q : where are the net settings installed on ubuntu ?!
[09:53] <m0gsi> gatekeeper_, ??
[09:53] <ic56> XenonG: 1337 ?! What's that?
[09:53] <XenonG> Elite
[09:53] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: fire up the the live cd then from the terminal: badblock -v /dev/hda (or whatever your hdd is called)
[09:54] <m0gsi> gatekeeper_, I'm using the text install disk
[09:54] <bonsai> erm.. is there no .trash on xubuntu-desktop?
[09:54] <renegade_of_funk> i have a amd64 cpu what kernel do i use 686 or K7 , this is for non 64ubuntu
[09:54] <racarter> gnome is displaying xfce stuff.. like the stop watch thing when something is loading
[09:54] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: well you need the check that your hard disk is ok
[09:55] <azureal> hi, my friend is having trouble obtaining the xine media player.. what package does he need, or what repos must he have open?
[09:55] <Jowi> bonsai: no idea. but shouldn't it be .Trash (with a capital T)?
[09:55] <racarter> anyone know how I can stop this?
[09:55] <m0gsi> hmm i'm pretty sure the HDD is ok gatekeeper_ the system is 2 days old
[09:55] <m0gsi> and is running windows fine
[09:55] <bonsai> Jowi, hmm, it would be in my home directory no?
[09:55] <Jowi> bonsai: correct
[09:55] <ic56> gean: /etc/network/interfaces
[09:55] <bonsai> ls -a shows nothing
[09:56] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: have you shrunk the ntfs partition enough to put linux on it?
[09:56] <gimbal> would anyone have a suggestion, to a person who would want to derive a distribution on Ubuntu (viz. Kubuntu, Edubuntu), a suggestion, as for "where to start"?
[09:57] <renegade_of_funk> i have a amd64 cpu what kernel do i use 686 or K7 , this is for non 64ubuntu
[09:57] <ic56> gean: if your newly installed kernel isn't recognized, try booting the old one.  grub should display a menu of boot options when it starts
[09:57] <m0gsi> gatekeeper_ yes , i've got 3.7gb for / and 500mb for swap
[09:57] <gatekeeper_> gimbal: nope but you could ask the Mepis boys how they do it
[09:57] <m0gsi> renegade_of_funk, It will run on k7 but isn't there a k8 kernel?
[09:58] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: you probable want a bit more, I would give it at least 5Gb to be comfortable
[09:58] <gimbal> gatekeeper_: danke
[09:58] <m0gsi> gatekeeper_, pfft i'm using 3gb at home :P doesn't explain why it hangs
[09:58] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: my kubuntu install takes up about 4Gb
[09:58] <J-_> !mlame

[09:59] <gatekeeper_> m0gsi: that's all I can suggest :-)
[09:59] <J-_> what's a good encoder i can use in the repos?
[09:59] <m0gsi> lol gatekeeper_ hmm , well i could download the ubuntu alt cd and see if that works :(
[09:59] <Ballsy> My Dapper LiveCD is stalling after 'configuring some drivers...ok' .... is that generally when X starts up
[09:59] <Ballsy> ?
[10:00] <racarter> how do I change the window manager for gnome?
[10:00] <racarter> I think I am using xfwm right now but I don't want to use that
[10:00] <Ballsy> If so, does ANYONE know how to run the Live CD such that it dumps me to run-level3 instead of 5 and gets me to a login prompt?

[10:06] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56: did you get that
[10:06] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: ok. I saw your paste (next time use pastebin)
[10:07] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: so, what's the problem (I should warn you, I have no experience with wireless)
[10:07] <brotakul> can somebody tell me if there is any chipset driver from NVidia for sk754? the normal driver is only for audio and network. thanks
[10:07] <azureal> how do you obtain the xvid codec?
[10:07] <aqau_inter_fly> ic56:  okay...does Frequency = 1Mhz, is that the same and Channel 1
[10:08] <aqau_inter_fly> Because i know that I can have channels on wireless and my router is set up to channel 6
[10:08] <Midknight> hey guys simple question, if I plug a USB HD in, and format with ext3 how do I make it writeable, it says read only
[10:08] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: asuming your ap is not hidden and you don't use encryption, sudo dhclient wlan0 or whatever the inerface name is to get an ip and associate
[10:09] <aqau_inter_fly> mwe:  oh...wait... do i need to disable any security on wireless?
[10:09] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: or configure ubuntu to use it
[10:09] <ic56> aqau_inter_fly: no idea.  I didn't know there were "channels".  Pastebin the output, and ask your question again, from the channel, mentioning both your question and hte pastebin url -- hopefully someone will have the answer.
[10:10] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: is your connection encrypted and if so with wep or wpa?
[10:10] <aqau_inter_fly> umm wep
[10:11] <brotakul> can somebody tell me if there is any chipset driver from NVidia for sk754? the normal driver is only for audio and network. thanks

[10:12] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: all right type sudo -i to get a root login
[10:12] <soundray> I've heard that Intel graphics chipsets are well supported -- can you buy PCI-E cards with one of those though? Whereever I look, I find only nvidia and ati :(
[10:13] <aqau_inter_fly> done
[10:13] <aqau_inter_fly> mwe: already done
[10:13] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: do you have the wep key handy?

[10:13] <erUSUL> soundray: my ati 9250 is wonderfully supported (Agp only though)
[10:14] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: all right. iwconfig rausb0 essid <your ap name> <-- type the correct name of course
[10:14] <djbmister> this question is mostly related to a chrp system - pegasos 2
[10:14] <aqau_inter_fly> mwe: what is my ap name?
[10:14] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: stick with nvidia
[10:14] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: what ever you called it. did you hide it?
[10:14] <soundray> erUSUL, Jack_Sparrow: I want 3D acceleration *and* a free driver.

[10:17] <aqau_inter_fly> mwe: i posted it on pastebin
[10:17] <Jack_Sparrow> gotta run..
[10:17] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: sec, phone
[10:18] <soundray> Setup difficulties and such aren't my problem. I want to run a free operating system, ie. no nvidia and no fglrx

[10:39] <aqau_inter_fly> ifconfig eth0 up?
[10:39] <mwe> aqau_inter_fly: ifdown eth0. that will bring down this connection. then close irc. then try ping yahoo.com. if it works come back. if not bring up eth0 with ifup eth0
[10:39] <humanpersonman> tanlaan, oh didn't realize it was for 586, perhaps download the tarball and compile it

[11:01] <trev__> ok, i need text to speech and the internet says i need the package speechd but it isn't in synaptic
[11:01] <rohan> what is the name of gnome tool thats the frontend to gconf  ? had some red icon of a car with a spanner
[11:01] <rohan> cant find it in the dapper meny
[11:01] <rohan> *menu
[11:03] <Juhaz> rohan, gconf-editor?
[11:04] <stefg> !gconf
[11:04] <ubotu> I know nothing about gconf - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:05] <trev__> does anyone here know about festival?
[11:05] <tritium> trev__: what about it
[11:06] <phaedrus44> ello...
[11:06] <darkowl> how can i compile kernel 2.6.2 ?
[11:06] <trev__> how do you make it actaully make noice
[11:06] <tritium> darkowl: why would you do that?  it's old...
[11:06] <stefg> darkowl: you don't want that
[11:06] <trev__> i think i need a frontend for it?
[11:06] <phaedrus44> so if i bought a doman name way out on the world wide web..can i put up a name server on my home computer to point the doamin to?
[11:06] <tritium> trev__: do you want to set it up as a screen reader, or what?
 well acording to my cat /proc/version im using 2.6.15-26-386
[11:06] <rohan> c'mon guys
[11:06] <gatekeeper> darkowl: there is a kernel compile howto on the ubuntu forums, probable worth checking out
[11:06] <tritium> trev__: or would you just like to play around with it?
[11:06] <rohan> it was called gconftool2 or something
[11:07] <tritium> darkowl: right, and 15 > 2
[11:07] <trev__> i need text to speech for a game
[11:07] <zoredache> phaedrus44, yes you sould be able to do that, check to make sure you ISP isn't blocking web traffic though
[11:07] <darkowl> ups...
[11:07] <rohan> which had a list of all apps in the left, and top right the settings and bottom right the description
[11:07] <darkowl> bye
[11:07] <trev__> so i need to link the game file to it which is easy to do
[11:07] <rohan> people called it the gnome equivalent of windows registry
[11:07] <phaedrus44> how do i check  zoredache?
[11:08] <tritium> trev__: check the docs in /usr/share/doc/festival
[11:08] <zoredache> read the TOS, or contact their support.  Most ISPs say that you either can't or shouldn't run 'servers'
[11:08] <Q3Man> I'm having a problem with apache2-mod-perl2.. it seems to just print my perl scripts instead of running them....
[11:08] <Riyonuk> are there any more desktop enviroments other than gnome?

[11:09] <johnny_> linux
[11:09] <johnny_> i'm trying to network two laptops
[11:09] <trev__> ok, so do i have to install anything to set up a reader b/c the web said you need festival and another program to do it,(imusing it for the unreal tournament 2004, the linux version has a area to use a exteranl reader)

[11:09] <Riyonuk> only 3/
[11:09] <Riyonuk> *?
[11:09] <tritium> IseeIsee: mp3s are not "run" (they're not binary executables)
[11:10] <johnny_> and i have no idea how
[11:10] <stefg> !samba
[11:10] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:10] <stefg> !nfs
[11:10] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:10] <tritium> johnny_: if they're both linux, you don't need or want samba.  Just standard tcp/ip
[11:10] <johnny_> how do i set it up
[11:11] <nerales> hi !!
[11:11] <gatekeeper> johnny_: if you want to network 2 linux machines then use nfs as above
[11:11] <nerales> anyone can help me ith wireless
[11:11] <nerales> ??
[11:11] <tritium> gatekeeper: um, no
[11:11] <stefg> !wifi
[11:11] <Riyonuk> Xubuntu is for old pc's?
[11:11] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[11:11] <B1zz> not really Riyonuk
[11:11] <nerales> i have a ubuntu 6.06 on a asus laptop
[11:11] <B1zz> it can be used on new pcs too
[11:11] <zazeem> PLEASE HELP i get this  error after restarting x after installing nvidia drivers, when i restart my computer the last time it stayed in some console mode so i had to reinstall ubuntu, how do i make it not die? when i do  glx gears it says zazeem@zazilla:~$ glxgears
[11:11] <zazeem> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[11:11] <zazeem> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[11:12] <gatekeeper> tritium: um yes, only samba with windows
[11:12] <nerales> and wireless is working bad
[11:12] <zazeem> :(
[11:12] <tritium> gatekeeper: nfs is for networked filesystems.  He's asking for networking
[11:12] <gean> Question : PLEASE HELP ME! have an iso-cd containing ubuntu-6.06-alternate.iso, cd-volume-name is "21 Jul 2006", how can i explain it to my non-x ubuntu bad upgraded system ?
[11:12] <Riyonuk> well it says "which makes it ideal for old or low-end machines"
[11:12] <stefg> !nvidia > zazeem
[11:12] <johnny_> gatekeeper, if i'm using an ethernet crossover cable and im using my dsl modem on a usb will i be able to get on the internet?
[11:12] <B1zz> well it is
[11:13] <zazeem> stefg: i did all that
[11:13] <B1zz> but like i said you can use it on newer machines
[11:13] <tritium> johnny_: no, nfs will in no way help you get internet access
[11:13] <B1zz> its not as bloated as Kubuntu and Ubuntu
[11:13] <Riyonuk> is gnome like an installed program? Im free to uninstall it and try something else out?
[11:13] <stefg> zazeem: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[11:13] <tritium> Riyonuk: you can install other desktop environments, sure
[11:13] <tritium> zazeem: did you not use ubuntu packages?
[11:14] <johnny_> so while the computers are networked i wont be able to get on the internet tritium ?
[11:14] <gatekeeper> tritium: I see where you are coming from :-) penny has just dropped
[11:14] <Riyonuk> I like linux then, theres a lot of programs and there all free
[11:14] <tritium> johnny_: you will, but nfs has nothing to do with it
[11:14] <stefg> !ics
[11:14] <ubotu> I know nothing about ics - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:14] <tritium> gatekeeper: no worries, buddy :)
[11:14] <zazeem> ubuntu packages?
[11:14] <skavenge> firstarter is the best way to setup ICS imo
[11:14] <tritium> johnny_: there are a few guides, such as one on tldp.org on networking worth a read
[11:14] <johnny_> well if the default connection is set to the internet connection and not the network will that f anything up tritium ?
[11:14] <zazeem> tritium: what do you mean?
[11:14] <tritium> zazeem: yes, for nvidia
[11:14] <tritium> !nvidia
[11:14] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:14] <tritium> zazeem: ^^
[11:15] <zazeem> tritium: ya i did that
[11:15] <Riyonuk> what was that document on seeing what modems work with ubuntu?
[11:15] <tritium> zazeem: please use ubuntu packages, and not nvidia.com installers
[11:15] <gatekeeper> johnny_: not using or got access to a router?
[11:15] <johnny_> no
[11:15] <zazeem> tritium: last time i did that i restarted comp and it stayed in console and said somthing about x cant start cause
[11:15] <johnny_> will i have to have one?
[11:15] <zazeem> tritium: i am
[11:15] <tritium> zazeem: that doesn't require a reinstall, by the way
[11:15] <rohan> well. i will be more direct. i have mounted cd-roms and hard disk partitions. their icons appear on desktop. how do i prevent those from appearing /
[11:15] <zazeem> tritium: well im too nub to know how to get out of it
[11:15] <Imme-emosol> Hi, can anyone help me out with this:
[11:16] <Imme-emosol> imme@wonderland:~$ gaim
[11:16] <Imme-emosol> *** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x0848f648 ***
[11:16] <Imme-emosol> Aborted
[11:16] <zazeem> how do i get out of console when that occurs?
[11:16] <tritium> johnny_: no, you can use crossover cable, and setup packet forwarding on one
[11:16] <stefg> zazeem: no use in reinstalling... linux is not windows... you just miss the point
[11:16] <tritium> Imme-emosol: use pastebin next time please
[11:16] <Riyonuk> lol man theres a lot of questions
[11:16] <zazeem> tritium: well im too nub to know how to get out of it
[11:16] <tritium> zazeem: that's no problem.  Just keep it in mind for next time
[11:16] <Allen_> hey everybody
[11:16] <zazeem> tritium: how do i get out of it if it happens again/
[11:16] <Imme-emosol> tritium: k, I thought 3 lines wouldn't be a prob,
[11:17] <johnny_> i just want to move some files from one laptop to the other
[11:17] <tritium> zazeem: you can always revert back to the "nv" driver in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (rather than "nvidia")
[11:17] <johnny_> is nfs best for that?
[11:17] <tritium> Imme-emosol: yeah, not a big deal.  Thanks :)
[11:17] <zazeem> tritium: i installed ubuntu nvidia packs i still have no splash either
[11:17] <Allen_> I am looking for some help with my x configuratioin also
[11:17] <gatekeeper> johnny_: think you can do it if you read up on what tritium suggested, but having a router and using either ethernet or wireless just makes life easier
[11:17] <zazeem> tritium: i need them for games
[11:18] <tritium> johnny_: yes, gatekeeper is right.  It makes it a easier.
[11:18] <Allen_> how can i tell ubuntu my resolution and monitor specs form the command line?
[11:18] <tritium> Allen_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and input them at the proper prompt
[11:18] <StyXman> Imme-emosol: did you compile your own gaim?
[11:18] <Imme-emosol> tritium: nope
[11:18] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas?
[11:18] <rohan> i have mounted cd-roms and hard disk partitions. their icons appear on desktop. how do i prevent those from appearing /
[11:18] <Allen_> what format should I put the demetiions in?
[11:18] <rohan> also, is there any ubuntu dapper deb for http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=39179 ?
[11:18] <Riyonuk> is it possible to browse the linux area on windows and vice-versa?
[11:18] <gatekeeper> tritium: ought to be that is what I am using :-)
[11:19] <koot> i got problem with installing some xml module in perl: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18541, it cant find libxml2 but i got it installed what is wrong??
[11:19] <skavenge> Riyonuk: yes
[11:19] <tritium> charlesJacobs, zazeem:  it's starting to sound like a bug has popped up.  Was nvidia-glx recently updated?
[11:19] <johnny_> what is ldap?
[11:19] <tritium> gatekeeper: :)
[11:19] <StyXman> charlesJacobs: check you xorg.conf. see if it loads the GLX module
[11:19] <Imme-emosol> tritium: But I should say I have some other issues to, so maybe I should have to reinstall ubuntu after all... :(
[11:19] <stefg> ntfs > Riyonuk
[11:19] <charlesJacobs> StyXman: yeah it's loading the glx module
[11:19] <charlesJacobs> tritium: yes I just installed it
[11:19] <tritium> Imme-emosol: reinstall?  This is not windows, amigo...
[11:20] <zazeem> tritium: ihow do  check
[11:20] <StyXman> charlesJacobs: then maybe it is not using the nvidia driver
[11:20] <zazeem> tritium: i just updated it and it aid i have newest
[11:20] <Riyonuk> skavenge: how?
[11:20] <tritium> zazeem: yes, but was it recently updated (do you recall?)
[11:20] <rohan> i have mounted cd-roms and hard disk partitions. their icons appear on desktop. how do i prevent those from appearing /
[11:20] <charlesJacobs> StyXman: it is. I get the nvidia splash and it supports my resolution unlike nv and vesa
[11:20] <Imme-emosol> tritium: No, I know, but some guy told me so, 'cause I upgraded from 5.10 to 6.06... :S I didn't see the point, but it becomes clear a bit now...
[11:20] <johnny_> what name do i give in the /etc/host
[11:20] <StyXman> what does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say?
[11:21] <zazeem> tritium: i dont know, i had 130 updates i installed when i installed ubuntu a hour ago
[11:21] <Riyonuk> cause if I cant get internet working on ubuntu, I wanna drag linux files to the ubuntu partion
[11:21] <Riyonuk> is that possible?
[11:21] <tritium> Imme-emosol: upgrading is possible too, though.
[11:21] <tritium> zazeem: ah
[11:21] <skavenge> Riyonuk: you can mount ntfs in linux, and windows has drivers now to read ext2/3 (linux) ..
[11:21] <koot> ;/
[11:21] <stefg> Riyonuk: waht kind of coonection are you on?
[11:21] <Imme-emosol> tritium: Yeah, okay. So what does the error I did not pastebin mean?
[11:21] <Riyonuk> what are they called?
[11:21] <Riyonuk> I must have them
[11:21] <charlesJacobs> StyXman: (II) LoadModule: "glx"

[11:22] <eno> so I have been scrwing around with things like deborphan and debfoster.  I have removed something bad and now my system is slower than it should be.  does anyone think it would be okay to go out of x and remove gnome and everything and install xubuntu?
[11:22] <tritium> charlesJacobs: pastebin!!!
[11:22] <skavenge> thats windows nonsense i have no idea
[11:22] <Riyonuk> dial-up
[11:22] <charlesJacobs> tritium: ah thanks. I'd forgotten that site
[11:22] <gatekeeper> skavenge: if you look on the ubuntu forums there are howto's to also write to ntfs partitions
[11:22] <zazeem> tritium: any idea? :(
[11:22] <rohan> i have mounted cd-roms and hard disk partitions. their icons appear on desktop. how do i prevent those from appearing /

[11:22] <ubotu> I know nothing about pmount - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:22] <skavenge> gatekeeper: yeah i know, he wants to drag files from windows onto linux though
[11:22] <zazeem> tritium: i dont know what restricted modules are needed, i have 2 installed
[11:22] <tritium> zazeem: not off hand.  You've looked at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log for error messages?
[11:22] <stefg> stupid bot!
[11:23] <zazeem> tritium: no
[11:23] <tritium> zazeem: they need to match your running kernel in version number
[11:23] <zazeem> tritium: how?
[11:23] <tritium> zazeem: open it up with an editor, and read it
[11:23] <zazeem> tritium: k

[11:24] <pgavin> skavenge: its been a while since I used that one, I'll try it again
[11:24] <skavenge> gatekeeper: from window to linux, like he wants to be running windows and drag it onto the linux partition
[11:24] <McNutella> pgavin, maybe its your setup
[11:24] <Riyonuk> stefg: was that for me?
[11:24] <pgavin> McNutella: it does over here, every time

[11:24] <_marshall> ok everybody, i want to know what your favourite gnome music players are
[11:24] <tritium> CappO: ndiswrapper is available as as package
[11:25] <McNutella> pgavin, why should it tell you if you have set it up wrong? go figure :)
[11:25] <stefg> rohan: you have to call gconf-editor and set the key apps-natilus-desktop-volumes_visible to no (uncheck)
[11:25] <pgavin> McNutella: umm, good usability?
[11:25] <eno> I guess no one knows... I am going to go ahead with the operation then
[11:25] <CappO> tritium, what do yoy mean ? like apt-get .. ?

[11:25] <sloucher> _marshall: xmms - old but sounds the best to me
[11:25] <tritium> eno: you can install XFCE with "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop"
[11:25] <pgavin> McNutella: I'm using it on ubuntu.  I never used it before
[11:26] <pgavin> McNutella: before today, that is
[11:26] <McNutella> pgavin, as in using add/remove
[11:26] <skavenge> gatekeeper: i already answered his question, and yes you can on a dual boot
[11:26] <_marshall> sloucher: cool
[11:26] <johnny_> can someone help with nis

[11:27] <_marshall> does anybody use ekiga here?
[11:27] <gatekeeper> skavenge: yes I know you can dual boot, talking at cross purposes I think, don't worry about it
[11:27] <fr500> mooey: .Trash
[11:27] <Riyonuk> stefg: that link didnt really tell me anything
[11:27] <mohadib> what pkg should i search for for 2.6 kernel sources?
[11:27] <mooey> thanks
[11:27] <johnny_> fr500, how do i know what ip address to use for the server and clients?
[11:27] <CappO> tritium, can you please elaborate ? how is this command apt-get install ndiswrapper ?
[11:27] <bahadirt> guys I need a little help on postfix. port 25 rejecting connection
[11:27] <tritium> mohadib: you want linux-source, not kernel-source packages
[11:27] <mohadib> ahh , thanks
[11:27] <johnny_> to put in the /etc/hosts.allow ?
[11:27] <StyXman> mohadib: linux-source-2.6.x
[11:27] <tritium> CappO: which release are you runnign?
[11:27] <pgavin> McNutella: I fresh installed when 6.06 came out, like a 1.5 months ago.  thunderbird was installed today.
[11:27] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: That's also one.
[11:27] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: that's for tty6
[11:27] <sloucher> mooey - it's .Trash - it's a hidden file in your home directory
[11:27] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, and it isn't working?
[11:27] <fr500> johnny_: you said crossover cables, there is no server and client, just peers
[11:27] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, oh and you dont want tty6

[11:28] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: Nope, not yet.
[11:28] <zoredache> phaedrus44: 'sudo apt-get install bind9'  after that create your zones and update the named.local
[11:28] <CappO> tritium, hoary is the only version i can install on my older p3 laptop, the newer version hangs while installing :(
[11:29] <tritium> CappO: lsb_release -a says you're running hoary?
[11:29] <fr500> johnny_: ok, set pc1 with address 192.168.1.1 and mask 255.255.255.0 pc2, same mask, ip 192168.1.2, you can set that in the system-administration-networking applet
[11:29] <fr500> 192.168.1.2
[11:29] <zoredache> *named.conf.local* rather...
[11:29] <skavenge> i fell off my dinosaur last time i was running hoary, i'd suggest an update
[11:29] <phaedrus44> hehe...can you walk me through it zoredache?  i know im asking a lot
[11:29] <fr500> johnny_: no clue about networking?
[11:30] <johnny_> under the dns tab fr500

[11:30] <tritium> RJporra: stop repeating!
[11:30] <StyXman> RJporra: that error appears when you try to do what?
[11:30] <fr500> johnny_: not under dns, in the connection tabs, ethernet connection
[11:30] <st_iron> hi
[11:30] <RJporra> install ubuntu
[11:30] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: Ah, okay.
[11:30] <fr500> johnny_: double clic the icon and set the parameters, accept and activate
[11:31] <johnny_> properties?
[11:31] <stefg> RJporra: broken harddisk, i assume
[11:31] <eugman> Tritium, I think porra is in a cave or auditorium. The echos in there aqre horrible.
[11:31] <StyXman> RJporra: aha. whic hardware?
[11:31] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: So how do I turn on using the icons on my desktop?
[11:31] <fr500> johnny_: be sure to select the enable chckmark
[11:31] <tritium> eugman: heh
[11:31] <johnny_> its enabled
[11:31] <RJporra> 80gb sata
[11:31] <fr500> and did you set the ip addresses?
[11:31] <mALmEN> can help me to set speedtouch on ubuntu ?
[11:31] <CappO> tritium, that isn't easy for a beginner, right ?
[11:31] <mALmEN> plz
[11:31] <RJporra> seagate
[11:31] <fr500> johnny_: and did you set the ip addresses?
[11:31] <zoredache> phaedrus44: actually I was about to leave... you might find (http://langfeldt.net/DNS-HOWTO/BIND-9/) useful though
[11:31] <tritium> CappO: no, you'll need to install build-essential, and linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[11:32] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, well, you can create one by right cleaning and going New-Whatever....  but you'll find all of you applications in your Apps menu in the top left
[11:32] <eugman> mALmEN, I can't ;however, have you done a search in the forums?
[11:32] <profoX`> do ralink rt2500 wireless network cards work with ubuntu dapper drake? or what was the problem again?
[11:32] <bernouli> what should i do so that my firefox can play sound on flash object?
[11:32] <phaedrus44> thanks a million zoredache  you good help
[11:32] <phaedrus44> thanks
[11:32] <mALmEN> was saying to i install firmware
[11:32] <johnny_> yes fr500
[11:32] <mALmEN> thats be realy needed ?
[11:32] <johnny_> do i leave the gateway slot empty?
[11:32] <StyXman> Riyonuk: any external would do
[11:32] <CappO> tritium, this sounds really confusing, how do i begin with this ? or is this just too much to explain ?
[11:32] <fr500> johnny_: now accet and select the ethernet icon, and clic activate
[11:32] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: I dump downloaded files there so...
[11:32] <bernouli> is it normal in ubuntu that firefox cant play sound?
[11:32] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, and they aren't showing up???
[11:32] <fr500> johnny_: yeah, doesnt care for this
[11:33] <tritium> CappO: seen this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper ?
[11:33] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, oK they should be that's very strange.
[11:33] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, what version of ubuntu
[11:33] <profoX`> bernouli: wait a sec
[11:33] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: 6.06
[11:33] <skavenge> bernouli: flash in linux has horrible sound support, theres workaround on ubuntuforums.org ..
[11:33] <Riyonuk> I dont have an external
[11:33] <Riyonuk> its internal PCI
[11:33] <profoX`> bernouli: open up the file /etc/firefox/firefoxrc with an editor like gedit: sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[11:33] <Moocasso> Hi there guys :)  I've got a bit of a hardware issue.  I'm using an MX1000 mouse, which I can get working without too much trouble, the problem is, when it's working, if I disconnect it (since it's a laptop and I don't use the mouse everywhere) then I get a problem that the X server fails to start, and I have to copy the backup
[11:33] <johnny_> ok fr500
[11:33] <profoX`> bernouli: change the DSP thing to "aoss"
[11:33] <gatekeeper> bernouli: this what you are after? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[11:33] <johnny_> do i do that on both laptops?
[11:33] <Flannel> Riyonuk: there's a hardware compat list on the wiki
[11:33] <CappO> tritium, thank you gonna read it now
[11:33] <johnny_> same ip and everything?
[11:33] <tritium> CappO: good luck :)
[11:33] <profoX`> Bergcube: and install: sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
[11:34] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, Hmm... that's really very strange.   Try opening a console for me and typing this command
[11:34] <fr500> johnny_: i gave you parameters for both pcs
[11:34] <profoX`> bernouli: and install: sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
[11:34] <StyXman> Riyonuk: ah, I thought you meant to buy a new one
[11:34] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, pico Desktop/test.txt
[11:34] <fr500> johnny_: same actions dif parameters
[11:34] <profoX`> bernouli: it'll work flawless then
[11:34] <johnny_> sorry it scrolled to fast
[11:34] <johnny_> what was the 2nd?
[11:34] <fr500> johnny_: ok, set pc1 with address 192.168.1.1 and mask 255.255.255.0 pc2, same mask, ip 192168.1.2, you can set that in the system-administration-networking applet
[11:34] <profoX`> gatekeeper: no that's not the right answer
[11:34] <profoX`> gatekeeper: that doesn't stop the sound problem
[11:35] <fr500> johnny_: errr i missed a dot
[11:35] <profoX`> bernouli: did you follow my advice?
[11:35] <johnny_> its ok
[11:35] <johnny_> is that it?
[11:35] <bernouli> profoX`, yes, i am doing
[11:35] <bernouli> gatekeeper, i have macromedia plugin, only no sound, but i am trying profoX` way
[11:35] <gatekeeper> profoX`: I wasn't sure if all he was after was the plug in hence it was a question to some degree
[11:35] <zOap> how do I prevent nautilus from starting? I tried killing the process but it keeps restarting.. I don't use nautilus for my file browsing..
[11:36] <johnny_> fr500, how do i move files across it now?
[11:36] <gatekeeper> bernouli: good plan :-)
[11:36] <profoX`> bernouli: okay :) flash uses oss by default, but that is old, and it wants the soundcard for itself when using the oss kernel module emulation, with aoss you can work around that problem
[11:36] <Riyonuk> is this what Im looking for? http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html
[11:36] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: So my terminal-windows crasht... :S :P
[11:36] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: What did you want me top type again?
[11:36] <bernouli> profoX`,  yes, it plays the sound, thanks a lot
[11:36] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, pico Desktop/test.txt
[11:36] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: -p
[11:36] <profoX`> bernouli: you're welcome ;)
[11:36] <profoX`> flash sucks though..
[11:36] <Moocasso> anybody have any ideas for my issue?  :)
[11:36] <profoX`> bernouli: can you try something out for me with flash?
[11:37] <bernouli> profoX`, just want to listen something from youtube :)
[11:37] <fr500> johnny_: you can do various ways, easiest would be to install openssh-server on both and install via gnome-vfs
[11:37] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, it will bring up an editor, type some random text and do Control + X, when prompted to save hit y and then hit enter
[11:37] <bernouli> profoX`, sure
[11:37] <profoX`> bernouli: a webpage always crashes on me in firefox, a flash website..
[11:37] <bernouli> let me see
[11:37] <profoX`> bernouli: can you try if it works for you ? wait.. im going to find it
[11:37] <fr500> johnny_: or install samba
[11:37] <profoX`> bernouli: (alot of flash sites crash btw, thats the problem)
[11:37] <johnny_> samba is installed
[11:37] <johnny_> how do i move files from pc1 to pc2
[11:38] <fr500> johnny_: configuring samba is difficult
[11:38] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: Sorry, again... :S :(   pico Desktop/???.txt
[11:38] <fr500> for noobs
[11:38] <profoX`> bernouli: http://www.popcap.com/gamepopup.php?theGame=diamondmine click "play simple" and then sytart playing the game, the first correct move will freeze firefox... does it freeze or does it work ? thanks for testing!
[11:38] <fr500> try openssh-server better, i have a neat way
[11:38] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, pico Desktop/test.txt
[11:38] <Kibou> flash is evil..
[11:38] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, we're just creating a test file
[11:38] <profoX`> Kibou: i agree..
[11:38] <fr500> johnny_: also, can you ping from pc1 to pc2's ip address and viceversa?
[11:38] <Imme-emosol> ah okay. :P
[11:38] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: done that
[11:39] <johnny_> how exactly?
[11:39] <Riyonuk> skavenge: is this what Im looking for? http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html
[11:39] <cs99008> hello
[11:39] <johnny_> ping the 192 address?
[11:39] <skavenge> Riyonuk: i dont run window i have no idea
[11:39] <profoX`> bernouli: by the way, you are lucky that youtube listened to my mail, otherwise the sound in youtube would be broken when you tried to change volume in the youtube player :) but they fixed it today..
[11:39] <fr500> johnny open a console and from pc1 type ping 192.168.1.2 and viceversa
[11:39] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas? here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/754398
[11:39] <johnny_> yea its pinging
[11:39] <cs99008> Anyone using the PPC version of LTS here?
[11:39] <bernouli> profoX`, yes i can play
[11:39] <haldor> profoX: crashed for me too after 3 moves
[11:39] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, ok now is there a file on your desktop?
[11:39] <Riyonuk> oh
[11:40] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: nope
[11:40] <fr500> johnny_: ok
[11:40] <profoX`> haldor: always crashes on the first move here
[11:40] <gatekeeper> profoX`: me too
[11:40] <fr500> then install openssh-server
[11:40] <RJporra> nobody got this error in installation of ubuntu ? buffer I/O error on device dm-0 : logical block  p.s = hd sata
[11:40] <RJporra> nobody got this error in installation of ubuntu ? buffer I/O error on device dm-0 : logical block  p.s = hd sata
[11:40] <profoX`> seems to be a problem with ubuntu
[11:40] <skavenge> Riyonuk: at a quick glance yeah it looks right, i dont know how it works though i was just told about it
[11:40] <profoX`> on archlinux it works fine..
[11:40] <profoX`> and with epiphany-browser + flash it works too
[11:40] <profoX`> maybe it's time for a bug report ..
[11:40] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, crap I have no idea...  Try re-installing completely with the CD, if that doesn't fix I have no idea
[11:40] <skavenge> profoX`: how is epiphany anyway?
[11:40] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: when I do cd Desktop         ls       The file is there amongst others...
[11:40] <Riyonuk> alright
[11:41] <profoX`> Skaven: i don't know, i normally don't use epiphany
[11:41] <Riyonuk> Im gonna look at the ubuntu wiki
[11:41] <profoX`> skavenge: * sorry
[11:41] <Riyonuk> if I can find it
[11:41] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: That's what I said, a re-install.
[11:41] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: Just like windows. :D
[11:41] <skavenge> profoX`: ah okay, i've just heard about it ppl say its pretty lightweight
[11:41] <gatekeeper> profoX`: you do a clean install of dapper?
[11:41] <Riyonuk> hmm Im being told I should create a fat32 instead of using that?
[11:41] <profoX`> gatekeeper: yes
[11:41] <bernouli> profoX`, i can play it without any problem
[11:41] <gean> Question : PLEASE HELP ME! have an iso-cd containing ubuntu-6.06-alternate.iso, cd-volume-name is "21 Jul 2006", how can i explain it to my non-x ubuntu bad upgraded system ? E.G. mount /cdrom works and recognizes the ubuntu*.iso file... How can i upgrade from it ?!
[11:41] <profoX`> skavenge: it seems to be more light than firefox yes
[11:41] <bernouli> have moved up to 10 move
[11:42] <profoX`> bernouli: when using firefox ?
[11:42] <johnny_> on both fr500 ?
[11:42] <bernouli> profoX`, yes, i only use firefox
[11:42] <goatmale> hello
[11:42] <FunnyLookinHat> Imme-emosol, That's very strange....  sorry yo uhave to do this reinstall  : (
[11:42] <skavenge> Riyonuk: if you have space for a win32 partition to share files yeah thats pretty easy, thats what alot of ppl do to share files between the two
[11:42] <fr500> johnny_: on the one you want to get files from at least
[11:42] <goatmale> can anyone help me configure wine?
[11:42] <micahcowan> gean: your cd /contains/ the ISO? The ISO is supposed to be used as theimage for the CD...
[11:42] <profoX`> bernouli: strange.. strange.. can you do "about:plugins" in the address bar and tell me what plugins and what versions of the plugins you are running, but don't flood the channel on my account :P
[11:42] <fr500> johnny_: but it all apt-get install openssh-server
[11:42] <cs99008> Question: Is it possible to access the Mac OSX filesystem (HFS+) from a LiveCD booted PPC Ubuntu 6.06 LTS ?
[11:42] <fr500> you should do both
[11:42] <Riyonuk> so they all use that drive then?
[11:42] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: :P
[11:42] <gean> bernoulli : do u have any idea how to compute bernoulli numbers (math) say modulo 157 ?!
[11:42] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas? here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/754398
[11:42] <Riyonuk> or do they just make a fat32 partion for there files?
[11:43] <gatekeeper> profoX`: Clean installed then I just added flash, java & the firefox plugins no problem (at least not yet)
[11:43] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: thanks anyway.
[11:43] <johnny_> well i'm on the internet on this one and i only have one usb slot for internet
[11:43] <Flannel> gean: is the iso burned as an image? or did you burn the iso file itself? (when you open the cd, do you see the iso file?
[11:43] <johnny_> so i'll have to switch
[11:43] <Imme-emosol> FunnyLookinHat: bye
[11:43] <skavenge> Riyonuk: they just make a new fat32 partition to share files between both OSes
[11:43] <Moocasso> I don't suppose anyone has an idea for my issue?
[11:43] <haldor> profox`: konquerer plays fine with it using flash so seems to be a firefox issue
[11:43] <profoX`> gatekeeper: firefox 1.5.0.4 and what plugins are you running in about:plugins ?
[11:43] <goatmale> can some one PM me and help me configure wine?
[11:43] <Riyonuk> ahh you could have just told me to do that
[11:43] <johnny_> and when i want to use my ethernet for internet again do i just change it back to dhcp fr500 ?
[11:43] <tavolink> hola
[11:43] <profoX`> haldor: yes epiphany runs fine too with flash
[11:43] <bernouli> profoX`, how can i copy paste the config?
[11:43] <profoX`> seems to be a ubuntu-firefox-flash problem
[11:43] <Flannel> Riyonuk: you can use samba to share files, easily enough.
[11:43] <fr500> johnny_: yes
[11:43] <Flannel> !tell Riyonuk about samba
[11:43] <profoX`> bernouli: www.pastebin.ca :)
[11:43] <johnny_> ok openssh is installed on this one
[11:44] <johnny_> how do i move files
[11:44] <gean> Flannel : win* burned it as an iso, i can mount the cd in my /cdrom and see the file ubuntu-etcaetera.iso !
[11:44] <Riyonuk> o_O
[11:44] <skavenge> johnny_: mv
[11:44] <bernouli> profoX`, i mean, how can i copy all the config, should i do it one by one?
[11:44] <Flannel> gean: then you need to burn it correctly then
[11:44] <goatmale> Can anyone help me configure wine?
[11:44] <skavenge> gean: it didnt get burned as an iso then
[11:44] <johnny_> just mv file 192.168.1.2 ?
[11:44] <gean> Flannel : all the troubles after reboot after new kernek + upgrades installed !
[11:44] <profoX`> bernouli: what do you mean ? the about:plugins, doesnt that just give you a list with the plugins + versions ?
[11:44] <johnny_> is there any way to do it with a gui so i can mv alot a files at once?
[11:44] <micahcowan> Moocasso: do you have your regular laptop "mouse" enabled, in addition to the USB one?
[11:44] <Riyonuk> ok...thats a little too complicated
[11:44] <bernouli> profoX`, ahh, ok, i did about:config, sec
[11:44] <Riyonuk> ill stick with making a fat32
[11:45] <Flannel> gean: your iso isn't really a ubuntu CD, you need to reburn it, correctly
[11:45] <skavenge> johnny_: drag and drop with nautilus then
[11:45] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas? here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/754398
[11:45] <johnny_> how skavenge
[11:45] <Moocasso> micahcowan: I tried that, every time I do x server fails to start :P
[11:45] <stefg> goatmale: /j #wine
[11:45] <johnny_> dont i need to set up a shared folder or something?
[11:45] <Flannel> johnny_: with what? ftp? samba? what?
[11:45] <johnny_> openssh-server
[11:45] <Riyonuk> just by having a linux file on windows doesnt like encode it wrong or anything does it?
[11:45] <micahcowan> Moocasso: even if you have the other mouse plugged in?
[11:45] <johnny_> to another computer with crossover
[11:46] <Flannel> Riyonuk: no.  Did you read the samba page?
[11:46] <Moocasso> micahcowan: the other mouse is a touch pad :P
[11:46] <mwe> partimage seems really cool. I think it is succesfully creating a perfect mirror image of my mp3 player :)

[11:46] <micahcowan> Moocasso: what I'm asking is, with the regular mouse plugged in, can you configure the touchpad to work?

[11:46] <johnny_> fr500, how do i move files to the other computer now?
[11:47] <Moocasso> micahcowan...hmmm...
[11:47] <karl> in ubuntu, where is the asound.state file saved after an "alsactl store" is performed? ie, i'm trying to load backuped defaults, and need to overwrite the file so that I can do it, but don't know where it is saving it to.
[11:47] <Riyonuk> yes...I had to do all these commands in ubuntu...which requires me to be connected to the internet...which i cant...thats why Im doing this in the first place, so I can download my stuff from windows and drag them over to ubuntu
[11:47] <gean> Flannel : The Win* mashine cannot do that... i cannot unpack it in Win* or burn it as an iso... BUT: the help.ubuntu page tells me something about: sudo moount -t iso9660 ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso /cdrom -o loop ; # command line does not work...
[11:47] <Moocasso> micahcowan: I don't know if I tried that for sure or not O.o  I'll try it out, thanks!  :)
[11:47] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas? here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/754398
[11:47] <bernouli> profoX`, and i am still playing :)
[11:47] <skavenge> gean: theres a thousand programs to burn it properly in windows, download one
[11:48] <Flannel> gean: it'll be easier to just burn as an image, and yes, windows can do that.  I don't know how though.  But, it'll be a LOT easier to just burn as an image instead of dealing with mounting as an image.

[11:51] <gatekeeper> profoX`: well so far so good :-)
[11:51] <Blissex> stabby-: nothing surprising there unfortunately, recent drivers versions have that fixed in most cases though. Check the /topic of #ATI
[11:51] <micahcowan> phaedrus, what problem?
[11:51] <johnny_> says it could not display fr500
[11:52] <RJporra> karl : sorry
[11:52] <skavenge> Riyonuk: for listening to music on a windows share your better off trying to run samba, unless you want to copy all of it over to a fat32 partition and have doubles of everything
[11:52] <stabby-> Blissex thank you
[11:52] <profoX`> bernouli: don't think so :( don't know what the problem is.. gatekeeper has no problems and he is running the same flash plugin version
[11:52] <fr500> johnny_: san u ssh to the other pc? (ssh 192.168.1.otherpcnumber)

[11:52] <skavenge> !samba > Riyonuk
[11:53] <Riyonuk> thank you

[11:53] <johnny_> i'm sorry i dont follow fr500
[11:53] <goatmale> is there a program for ubuntu that works as good as wine?
[11:53] <RJporra> !samba
[11:53] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:53] <skavenge> Riyonuk: fat32 is the easier option, where samba makes more sense, thats kind of up to you
[11:53] <sip> hi
[11:53] <micahcowan> phaedrus44, what problem?
[11:53] <fr500> johnny_: man you are beyond noob, open a console and type what i told it should ask for some key thing
[11:53] <Riyonuk> -_-
[11:53] <johnny_> sorry i read that wrong fr500
[11:53] <Riyonuk> this makes no sense
[11:53] <RJporra> can u guys read pvt messages?
[11:53] <sip> nayone knows how can i register my nick?
[11:54] <goatmale> samba can run windows apps?
[11:54] <sip> anyone
[11:54] <phaedrus44> telent 127.0.0.1   returns with connection refused ...  but    telnet,   telnet>open 127.0.0.1 80   works
[11:54] <Riyonuk> if Im trying to configure a way to get to the internet...how do they expect me to download that tool?
[11:54] <Flannel> goatmale: no.
[11:54] <Blissex> sip: /msg NickServ help
[11:54] <XVampireX> goatmale, same is just a networking application
[11:54] <phaedrus44> why doesnt      telnet 127.0.0.1  work?
[11:54] <skavenge> sip: /msg nick register passwd
[11:54] <XVampireX> goatmale, samba^
[11:54] <sip> Blissex, tks
[11:54] <goatmale> can any programs run windows apps?
[11:54] <goatmale> other then wine.
[11:54] <Flannel> goatmale: wine can
[11:54] <johnny_> ok fr500
[11:54] <phaedrus44> micahcowan:   thanks you for reply btw
[11:54] <XVampireX> goatmale, yeah, crossover office
[11:54] <goatmale> I think I broke wine :(
[11:54] <skavenge> goatmale: wine, or if you wanna pay crossover office / cedega
[11:54] <Flannel> goatmale: so, uninstall and reinstall.
[11:54] <XVampireX> goatmale, and cedega
[11:54] <micahcowan> phaedrus: telnet 127.0.0.1 means telnet to port 23, whereas telnet ... 80 means telnet to port 80.
[11:55] <goatmale> I did
[11:55] <stefg> Riyonuk: you already know that you need the lucent driver
[11:55] <goatmale> using syanaptic
[11:55] <Riyonuk> well yes
[11:55] <Riyonuk> I think
[11:55] <micahcowan> phaedrus: port 23 means you have to have a telnet daemon running. This is usually not enabled on any linux/unix distros by default, as it allows unencrypted logins to a system.
[11:55] <phaedrus44> micahcowan:  actually  telnet 127.0.0.1 80       does work...is it bad that i have to add port?
[11:55] <micahcowan> port 80 is the web server.
[11:55] <sip> i did but nothing happen...
[11:55] <johnny_> i type in the password and it says it could not display fr500
[11:55] <micahcowan> what is it that you want to be able to do with telnet?
[11:55] <Riyonuk> so does that only tell you what driver you have?
[11:55] <Riyonuk> and since I already know
[11:56] <Riyonuk> is there like a list somewhere?
[11:56] <maluk> how can i get a conexant modem working in 64bit dapper?
[11:56] <fr500> johnny_: did you open the console and did what i said?
[11:56] <johnny_> yea
[11:56] <sip> Blissex, Skavenge,  i did but nothing happen...
[11:56] <nn> no ideas?
[11:57] <fr500> johnny_: what did it say?
[11:57] <skavenge> sip: /msg nickserv help
[11:57] <nn> Oh well, time to get drunk
[11:57] <Blissex> sip: probably your IRC client opened a new tab/window for that.
[11:57] <skavenge> nn: amen to that
[11:57] <sip> Skavege, i`ll try again...
[11:57] <johnny_> RSA key fingerprint is ca:52:ed:cf:56:2b:3e:bf:fb:67:c0: b9:fe:6a:fb:a8.
[11:57] <johnny_> Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? y es
[11:57] <johnny_> Warning: Permanently added '192.168.1.2' (RSA) to the li st of known hosts.
[11:57] <johnny_> johnny@192.168.1.2's password:
[11:57] <phaedrus44> micahcowan:  i am trying to setup  BIND9
[11:57] <sip> maybe...
[11:57] <Riyonuk> how would making a fat32 partion, putting my music on there, double them?
[11:57] <Blissex> sip: or it put the response in the server thingie.
[11:57] <skavenge> sip: listen to Blissex, do you have another tab open next to the #ubuntu window?
[11:58] <tritium> johnny_: please don't paste here
[11:58] <johnny_> sorry
[11:58] <nn> skavenge: i want my smartcard logins working.. i really wanna stuff my ssh key on my smartcard or some such..
[11:58] <micahcowan> phaedrus: okay... I'm not sure what you need telnet for to do that?
[11:58] <sip> ahhhh i get it
[11:58] <johnny_> thast what it says fr500 then it goes back to the command line
[11:58] <fr500> johnny_: then type yes
[11:58] <phaedrus44> uh...i am reading this...   http://langfeldt.net/DNS-HOWTO/BIND-9/DNS-HOWTO-2.html
[11:58] <charlesJacobs> hey guys I'm using the repo nvidia-glx drivers and glxinfo returns several lines of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." any ideas? here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/754398
[11:58] <fr500> and then try the connect to server thingy again
[11:58] <skavenge> nn: ssh is beyond me lol, i dont even bother im sure i'd pull my hair out
[11:58] <johnny_> i did
[11:59] <nn> skavenge: i've got ssh working fine, but i'd like to have a way to use my Army CAC card to login to my ssh hosts
[11:59] <johnny_> it just goes back to the prompt
[12:00] <nn> that way i dont have to bring my keys with me or remember a password just my CAC pin #
[12:00] <skavenge> that'd be cool
[12:00] <micahcowan> phaedrus: that HOWTO seems a little broken. There is no good reason for you to set up a telnet server for your box. Without one, telnetting to it will of course not work. I'll check ahead to see if they actually rely upon it in the document.
[12:00] <CappO> tritium, are you still here ?
[12:00] <nn> i had it working on debian
