[12:08] <seek> Does anyone know how to get modules-assistant to install on Ubuntu?
[12:08] <nickers> i am going nuts

[12:09] <nickers> nvidia in xorg.conf
[12:09] <nickers> nothing
[12:09] <RogerBacon> fusionxn1 : close firefox, run sudo nautilus, and copy your downloaded 15.0.5 to /usr/lib/firefox (for me is work perfect :)
[12:09] <dribble> does anybody else have chronic rhythmbox problems?  it's pretty much borked on my desktop, but works alright on my notebook.  on the desktop it freezes into an 'uninterruptible state' -- of which the only way to fix it is a reboot.\
[12:09] <nickers> even ldd and looked at glxgears to make sure it was using correct libGL
[12:09] <nickers> it is

[12:10] <lamego> nickers, remove the nvidia driver and kernel restricted modules and reinstall, but first install the restricted moduloes and just later the driver (the order does matter)
[12:10] <pmorrison> Hello everyone,  I just tried to open a bunch of my pictures on one of my partitions, and all the pictures are in the root of the partion with weird filenames ending in .rec  I can open the files no problem in ubuntu though, can anyone tell me why this happend, and how to restore?
[12:10] <chris86wm> how do you disable a keyboard shortcut?
[12:10] <longwave> chris86wm: system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts?
[12:11] <seek> I'm having a nvidia driver problem.  How do I upgrade to the LATEST driver?
[12:11] <nickers> reboots in between lamego?
[12:11] <RogerBacon> ardchoille : no for canada mirror
[12:11] <chris86wm> yeah, im in there
[12:11] <chris86wm> longwave, how do you disable a key?
[12:11] <ardchoille> RogerBacon: ok, it'll probably rsync soon, then
[12:11] <longwave> chris86wm: select the action you want to disable, then press backspace
[12:11] <andyshack> im partitioning some space for ubuntu. ive got xp in a partition. i have the other half of the drive free... do i make an ext3 partition for ubuntu AND a linux-swap partition ? how big should the swap drive be if needed ?
[12:11] <fusionxn1> apt-get update dont update firefox for me
[12:11] <three> chris86: go to system -> prefs -> keyboard shortcuts
[12:11] <chris86wm> longwave, thanks so much
[12:12] <RogerBacon> ardchoille : yes but today no FF update or i use the mozilla.org file
[12:12] <ardchoille> fusionxn1: Give it some time, if you can wait, it'll probably rsync soon. It may save you time and trouble.
[12:12] <pmorrison> the partion with .rec files on it (they should be .jpg or .avi) is formated in vfat. could the .rec files be some sort of recovery?  Anyone ever run in to this?
[12:12] <ardchoille> RogerBacon: Ahh, ok
[12:12] <chris86wm> one more question, does anyone know how to get multimedia keys to work with xmms. i have the keys assigned but xmms seems to just ignore them.
[12:12] <fusionxn1> cannot overwrite directory `/usr/lib/firefox'
[12:12] <longwave> andyshack: yes, you should make ext3 and swap - swap should be twice the amount of RAM you have in your computer
[12:13] <fusionxn1> how do i tell it to overwrite?
[12:13] <matsur> hi, i have this line in my .xbindkeysrc : "/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Super_L] \[c] "" but it prints a c instead of pausing amarok (Win-C) when the attached mouse button is pressed. huh?
[12:13] <nickers> chis86wm you need the XF86Audio plugin from universe
[12:13] <nickers> it will allow it
[12:13] <jesspher> does anybody here know how to repair hard drive
[12:13] <fusionxn1> LOL
[12:13] <andyshack> cheers, the computer has 512 although i was going to stick either a gig or two in next week. no harm really in having a 4 gig swap drive ?
[12:13] <jesspher> using linux
[12:13] <fusionxn1> i just got a notification about 6 updates and firefox is there
[12:14] <longhorn> Hello all
[12:14] <tuliomgui> fusionxn1: are you trying to move as root??
[12:14] <andyshack> will it slow the system down much if the swap drive is much bigger ?
[12:14] <RogerBacon> how i know package dependancy ( for opera 9 ) whatis ?
[12:14] <fusionxn1> tul - SUDO
[12:14] <chris86wm> nickers, trying that now

[12:14] <longwave> andyshack: no, no problem, as long as you dont mind the extra used disk space :)

[12:31] <andyshack> ah im having a bother with creating a swap partition
[12:32] <longwave> andyshack: what problem?
[12:32] <tuliomgui> can someone tell me how to enable sound in firefox?? the falsh player
[12:32] <ardchoille> DrBashir2: Don't you just love the way they package those so the cd can't escape?
[12:32] <andyshack> from the partition option during install, i have created a second primary as ext3 for ubuntu, as per advice i have also created 4gb of drive as "linux-swap"
[12:32] <RogerBacon> tuliomgui : yes, the problem is flashpalyer ( use OSS and not ALSA ) .. install alsa-oss and launch firefox with the command : aoss firefox and change the shortcut to aoss firefox
[12:33] <longwave> ok
[12:34] <DrBashir2> ardchoille... ah yeah... *sigh* still; haven't been able to open it... oh well, as long as I got it to open in about an hour when the download finishes :P
[12:34] <ucordes> thanks roger bacon. had the same problem! so i need the package "alsa-oss" and have to add "aoss" in front of the firefox command?
[12:34] <Jack_Sparrow> ehazlett: You here?
[12:34] <RogerBacon> tuliomgui : its work ?
[12:34] <andyshack> well more to the point ive set it to be created as linux-swap upon format.. so i click next, and it says set mnt points.. /whatever/hc1 for ntfs1 and "/" for the second partition. the swap drive deosnt show.. if i hit go, it will format partition 2 copy install files then tell me i dont have a swap drive. im missing as to where to create of preformat the swap
[12:34] <tuliomgui> let me see
[12:34] <Lukas> Do you recommend me some alternative to Skype? I would like talk between MS Windows XP and Linux Ubuntu. We havent public IP adress.
[12:34] <dridhas> @find sabbra cadabra
[12:34] <RogerBacon> ok
[12:34] <tuliomgui> the alsa-oss is installed
[12:34] <Renan_s2> Lukas, Skype works on Linux
[12:34] <ardchoille> dribble: Wrong window? hehe
[12:35] <Lukas> I want alternative.
[12:35] <dribble> ardchoille, eh?
[12:35] <Asc> fine is too positive a word
[12:35] <longwave> andyshack: i just checked, and it seems the maximum swap partition size is 2Gb - sorry i made a mistake before. you really won't need 4Gb anyway..
[12:35] <Renan_s2> Lukas, why? There is a native version of Skype for Linux
[12:36] <tuliomgui> RogerBacon: didnt work man.. =/
[12:36] <ardchoille> dribble: sorry, tab completion bit me
[12:36] <ChipsGripsDeluxe> Easy Ubuntu has skype
[12:36] <andyshack> ah ok, that i assume would be it. cheers.
[12:36] <dribble> ardchoille, haha, no worries ;p.  it tends to do that.
[12:37] <mjr> Lukas, ekiga is a standards-based VOIP application, recently also ported to Windows (though may be rough around the edges on that side)
[12:37] <longwave> andyshack: i would guess so, i can't see why else it wouldn't see the partition. that is a bug though, it shouldn't let you create a swap partition that big in the first place :)
[12:37] <tuliomgui> RogerBacon: now worked
[12:37] <CyDrive> What do i do when i get this error when i do ./configure on a program? "configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH"

[12:40] <Lukas> mjr:thanks
[12:40] <tuliomgui> ardchoille: thats the default command
[12:40] <ardchoille> tuliomgui: try it from a term without the "%u"

[12:48] <iberry> i seek someone who has succesfully configured the ATI fglrx driver on an amd64/dapper install...anyone?

[12:49] <iberry> si, gracias.
[12:49] <dooglus> longwave: tcpdump shows that the packet isn't arriving.  I'm using cygwin's 'nc -u' on a Windows box to send it.  should that work?
[12:49] <RogerBacon> why skype is so long to oepn
[12:49] <andyshack> the fn installer crashed
[12:50] <ucordes> iberry: you should take a look at the wiki. i had fglrx running under amd64 with a guide there
[12:50] <Zyfo> I'm running both Windows and Ubuntu. Since I've got a hard drive on 250gb, and I'd prefer not to use partitions, I'm pretty much forced to use NTFS. This doesn't work too well with Ubuntu, I can't write files and one hard drive isn't even working. I've heard there are some kind of solution for this , anyone who could help me?
[12:50] <andyshack> why dont you want to use partitions ?
[12:50] <see> hey, might nnot be an ubuntuspecific issue, but couldnt find any openoffice channel, according to http://framework.openoffice.org/files/documents/25/897/filter_description.html openoffice supports importing writenow format, but an standard ubuntuinstall of it does not include that support, anybody has any idea how to add this filter in ubuntu?
[12:51] <verbose> Zyfo: check out ntfs-3g
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Zyfo: I use a fat32 to share between UB and XP
[12:51] <verbose> Zyfo: it's still beta though so beware
[12:51] <RogerBacon> Zyfo : fat32 ....
[12:51] <Zyfo> Jack_Sparrow: doesn't support 250 gb hd though, no?
[12:51] <Zyfo> verbose: thanks
[12:51] <tonyyarusso> RogerBacon: Partially because it has to access QT libraries, mostly because Skype for Linux is not too slick.
[12:51] <tuliomgui> RogerBacon: what are the repositories for skype?
[12:51] <tonyyarusso> !skype
[12:51] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skype To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[12:51] <fusionxn1> Anyone got a logitech g15 Keyboard / g5 mouse here?
[12:52] <foxsleep> nUbuntu is supported from Ubuntu project ???
[12:52] <Zyfo> I might use FAT32 if this doesn't work too ewll, I'd prefer to use NTFS with windows anyway.
[12:52] <ucordes> Zyfo: there are tools to use ntfs under linux and other way around to use ext3 under windows. but if you ask me better rezise your ntfs and make a fat32 out of the fress space
[12:52] <tuliomgui> tonyyarusso: tx!
[12:52] <verbose> Zyfo: i've been using it for a week or so
[12:52] <ucordes> thats what i did!
[12:52] <verbose> it works well so far
[12:52] <Zyfo> verbose: works good?
[12:52] <Zyfo> ucordes: I might, I'll just try this out first.
[12:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Zyfo: I use ntfs for XP and a small fat32 that xp and Ubuntu can both read and write safely
[12:52] <fusionxn1> What should i use if im making a new install of ubuntu?
[12:52] <verbose> but i bet it's one of those things that if i was crazy enough to use it on an important system it would destroy everything
[12:53] <Zyfo> Jack_Sparrow: ah, that's possible too I guess,
[12:53] <RogerBacon> tuliomgui : i use freecontrib depot
[12:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Zyfo: If you do write to NTFS , be sure to have a full backup
[12:53] <Zyfo> Jack_Sparrow: why?
[12:53] <Jack_Sparrow> It is not 100% safe yet
[12:53] <foxsleep> nUbuntu is supported from Ubuntu project ???
[12:53] <Zyfo> hm, I guess I'll go with FAT32 then.
[12:53] <imme> Hello
[12:53] <Jack_Sparrow> foxsleep: Just ask your question
[12:53] <ucordes> yea i messed up some bigger files by this too
[12:53] <nemlah> Anyone has a fix for the ubuntu xorg memory leak
[12:53] <nemlah> ??
[12:53] <Generic> bleh
[12:53] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. little question about apt ... Is there a way I can make my server (Ubuntu too) hold all the files my other computers download when they apt-get install something? Then each computer can just get it off the server? It seems like a waste getting all the files (many the same on all machines) from the www when I could store them locally. (I did this with Portage on another Distro).
[12:54] <ucordes> since then i use the fat32 as a kind of swap
[12:54] <Generic> i can't seem to get my amarok player applet back
[12:54] <imme> Unable to seek on /dev/hdc
[12:54] <Zyfo> I thought it would only be a matter of doing some tiersome installation or so, not that it wouldn't be working after it :P
[12:54] <imme> Unable to seek on /dev/hdc
[12:54] <foxsleep> My question is: /join #remote-exploit
[12:54] <foxsleep> /join #security
[12:54] <imme> srry
[12:54] <dli> NineTeen67Comet, have a look at apt-proxy, easy to setup
[12:54] <Zyfo> Thanks guys.
[12:55] <imme> So, when I do "sudo fdisk /dev/hdc" I get  "Unable to seek on /dev/hdc", what's my problem?
[12:55] <dooglus> NineTeen67Comet: I don't know, but "squid" is a caching proxy server.  if you made all your systems go through squid on the server, then only the first one would download the package and the rest would use the cached package
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> NineTeen67Comet:  DO you really have one, I had a 66 Caliente...   and yes you can store those locally or on cd...
[12:56] <hyphenated> apt-proxy is if you want to control the updates to the machines in your network. squid would be if you want to save bandwidth
[12:56] <dli> hyphenated, why does apt-proxy uses more bandwidth?
[12:57] <hyphenated> dli: it doesn't.
[12:57] <Zyfo> Not taking external applications in account, how much space do you use for your root and swap?
[12:57] <hyphenated> dli: it's for controlling updates though. so you make sure that only the updates you want to distribute on your network are on the 'proxy' machines
[12:57] <dooglus> hyphenated: looking at the apt-cache info for apt-proxy, it looks like apt-proxy will save bandwidth too.  it doesn't mirror the entire repo, right?  just the packages you download?
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> iberry: check your pm
[12:58] <dli> zybrid, for most users, 5 GB /
[12:58] <imme> So, when I do "sudo fdisk /dev/hdc" I get  "Unable to seek on /dev/hdc", what's my problem?
[12:58] <hyphenated> I keep my swap partition small, because if you're using it, you've pretty much already lost
[12:58] <dooglus> I suggested squid because I'd not heard of apt-proxy, but apt-proxy looks like it might be ideal
[12:59] <help-the-n00b> Is there a programming language that I can integrate terminal commands in?
[12:59] <dooglus> hyphenated: you've not lost as much as if you don't have any swap space left and need it...
[12:59] <Renan_s2> help-the-n00b, shell scripts?
[12:59] <hyphenated> imme: you might have scsi emulation, so they'd be /dev/sda, /dev/scd0 and so on
[12:59] <help-the-n00b> What are those?
[12:59] <ompaul> help-the-n00b, python
[12:59] <stefg> imme: broken filesystem or bad harddrive
[12:59] <help-the-n00b> Python? Isn't that a server=side language?
[12:59] <imme> I guess broken filesystem or bad harddrive, can I refix that?
[12:59] <ompaul> help-the-n00b, any language will allow you do "stuff", for values of "stuff"
[12:59] <dli> imme, have a look at your /proc/ide/
[01:00] <dli> imme, or, dmesg
[01:00] <help-the-n00b> Server-side.*
[01:00] <hyphenated> help-the-n00b: no, it's a general purpose language. use it wherever you want
[01:00] <help-the-n00b> Where do I lear it?
[01:00] <help-the-n00b> learn*
[01:00] <dli> imme, read dmesg first, then, kernel should report hardware failure
[01:00] <hyphenated> python.org would be a good start
[01:01] <help-the-n00b> LOL. Ok. Do I need a compiler?
[01:01] <hyphenated> help-the-n00b: also, join #python and read the topic. there will be useful links there
[01:01] <stefg> imme: you can try do boot inrecovery mode and see if fsck can fix something, Better option is to boot from a Live CD and check for bad blocks
[01:01] <ompaul> help-the-n00b, no, it is a programing language, as is bash, as is perl, python there is a book called dive into python in the repos and plently of stuff online, pick something you are comfortable with and start there
[01:01] <polpak> help-the-n00b: no, you need python.  http://doc.python.org/tut
[01:01] <imme> help-the-n00b: php also has a program for command-line assignments. (Use ob_start())
[01:01] <polpak> eww
[01:01] <polpak> php is ugly
[01:01] <ompaul> imme, wash out your mouth ;-)
[01:02] <imme> :D
[01:02] <stefg> ohhh... new firefox in repos. Respect, this was quick :-)
[01:02] <imme> dli:  "status error: status=0x58"
[01:04] <naylor> hi guys, i've just setup a new ubuntu box and want to use gnomeppp for dialup internet, but it's not detecting my modem, can anyone help please?
[01:04] <sergiol>  /etc/inid.d/postgres start does not work
[01:04] <sergiol> WHY?
[01:04] <dli> imme, either hardware failure or kernel bug, try the lastest stable kernel release, i.e., 2.6.17.7
[01:04] <hyphenated> sergiol: because it's postgresql not postgres ?
[01:05] <sergiol> it was only for demonstrate
[01:05] <dli> naylor, first, read whether your modem is supported :(
[01:05] <c|int> back, okay I was copying all that good info down, now my best way to go about trying it out.. is to deactive the lan right?
[01:05] <hyphenated> sergiol: do you get an error message?
[01:05] <Renan_s2> naylor, what is your modem?
[01:05] <imme> dli: I've got the k7 version if I'm not mistaken.  What was that command for finding out your current kernel again?
[01:05] <sergiol> no
[01:05] <hyphenated> imme: uname -a
[01:05] <sergiol> nothing is done
[01:06] <naylor> Renan_s2, i don't really know to be honest, it's just an internal modem
[01:06] <c|int> longwave:  you hre
[01:06] <sergiol> i already had it here, it worked fine on first installtion
[01:06] <imme> dli: "2.6.15-26-k7" also up to date?
[01:06] <dli> naylor, I had to ordered an external modem, but quite cheap, and it works out of box, no driver needed
[01:06] <rajat> Hi everyone.  I tried Ubuntu 6.06 and SLED 10.  SLED 10 + XGL feels more responsive than Ubuntu with or without XGL, any ideas why that could be?
[01:06] <imme> thanks hyphenated.
[01:06] <sergiol> all reinstatations i did that script fails
[01:07] <naylor> dli, i didn't really want to spend anymore cash if i could get the one i got working, would it be difficult?
[01:07] <rajat> Even when I switch desktops, it seems laggy, like it's taking a while to redraw the screen
[01:07] <dli> imme, it looks like a known kernel bug, upgrade to 2.6.17.7 ( kernel.org )
[01:07] <bignose> hiya.
[01:07] <imme> dli: okay, I'll do
[01:07] <Shaezsche> does ubuntu dapper include an antivirus program or firewall built in?
[01:08] <sysmin> naylor: You can run the command lspci to see what type of modem you have
[01:08] <digitalhav0c> yeah clamav
[01:08] <digitalhav0c> i think
[01:08] <Renan_s2> Shaezsche, you don't need antivirus
[01:08] <dli> naylor, in many cases, it's impossible, I tried for a week, reading tricks via google, it may work, or may not, buying a cheap modem (say, from ebay) sounds then
[01:08] <Shaezsche> renan...???
[01:08] <digitalhav0c> no you dont
[01:08] <Renan_s2> Shaezsche, you don't need antivirus on Linux :)
[01:08] <rajat> Any ideas?
[01:08] <bignose> i'm following the forum's tutorial to install vmware server. however when i try to apt-get linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386 , it can't be found. so i went to add applications and did a search for headers and nothing came up.
[01:08] <stefg> Shaezsche: why would you want ne?
[01:08] <Shaezsche> well i am installing this for my MOM, who knows nothing about computers. she might nEED av protection
[01:08] <Shaezsche> she gets lots of spam email
[01:08] <Renan_s2> Shaezsche, trust me, you don't need, there are few Linux viruses
[01:09] <dli> naylor, if you want to know, I can give you the model I bought, it simply works with ubuntu
[01:09] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: there are a grand total of 0 linux viruses out there in the wild
[01:09] <digitalhav0c> i know it comes with firestarter
[01:09] <digitalhav0c> firewall
[01:09] <pennypacker> its all you need
[01:09] <Shaezsche> ok, so it does have firestarter on by default?
[01:09] <naylor> sysmin: http://pastebin.ca/102803
[01:09] <ompaul> Shaezsche, she does not
[01:09] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: and there is a built-in firewall, but that only matters if you're running some services that listen for internet connections from the outside
[01:09] <pennypacker> firestarter is a gui for iptables
[01:09] <Shaezsche> ok, well why are there linux versions of av protection if NO ONE needs them? just curious
[01:09] <naylor> dli, ok thanks if it's real cheap i might buy one, is there anyway i can quickly try one i got out too?
[01:09] <dli> Shaezsche, no, no need to run protection, just don't run any service
[01:10] <pennypacker> its for scanning windows disks
[01:10] <bignose> Shaezsche: because they are to scan emails that go thru the server and then OUT to other people.
[01:10] <Shaezsche> dli, its not me, my mother might run a service that she shouldnt
[01:10] <stefg> Shaezsche: no virusses known inthe wild for linux, and you only need a fiewall if you run open ports (which is not the case withteh default install) Lez your mom click what she wants, she'll be safe :-)
[01:10] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: because some people use linux mail servers and file servers on their windows networks
[01:10] <naylor> dli, Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k HSFi Modem (rev 01)
[01:10] <RadiantFire> dli: whats she gonna do, have her own telnet server?
[01:10] <ompaul> Shaezsche, if you are defending windows boxes down stream
[01:10] <Shaezsche> ok, well thanks for the advice, ill trust you
[01:10] <RadiantFire> dli: I mean seriously
[01:10] <RadiantFire> oh, sorry Shaezsche
[01:10] <RadiantFire> whoops, wrong name
[01:10] <RogerBacon> naylor : same modem :) working on linux
[01:10] <pennypacker> no virus! isnt that nice
[01:11] <dli> naylor, when I searched on ebay, I found the one I ordered with a bidding of 1 $CAN, but I ordered the 20 $CAN (shipping included) via buy it now
[01:11] <sysmin> naylor, That link you sent me didn't work
[01:11] <naylor> RogerBacon, how??
[01:11] <dli> RadiantFire, no telnet
[01:11] <naylor> sysmin: http://pastebin.ca/102803
[01:11] <RadiantFire> telnet is fun, yay for plain text passwords
[01:11] <rajat> So no one has any ideas on why Ubuntu seems slow
[01:11] <Shaezsche> also, i wont be around when the new EEversion of ubuntu comes out, will my mom (who knows very little about computers) be able to update to it from the auto updater program?
[01:12] <pennypacker> disable unneeded services
[01:12] <RogerBacon> naylor : what your kernel version ( open your shell and tape : uname -a
[01:12] <imme> dli: That kernel is not available via ubuntu repositories?
[01:12] <tuxxo> hi
[01:12] <longhorn> Does any one here have a personal script that they use to clean log file?
[01:12] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: try the live cd, and play with the updater program. see if it's appropriate for her
[01:12] <dli> Shaezsche, however, it's still a good idea to install bastille + psad , very easy to setup by answering questions. sudo apt-get install bastille psad
[01:12] <dli> imme, no
[01:12] <dooglus> Shaezsche: she should see a message saying "a new version is available, click here to upgrade" in the update manager
[01:12] <longhorn> I know that there are many on the internet but just wanted to see what other people came up with.
[01:12] <Shaezsche> my mother does not understand the live cd version, she wouldnt be able to save the info she has on her /home folder
[01:12] <imme> dli k, tnX
[01:13] <naylor> RogerBacon, http://pastebin.ca/102809
[01:13] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: you misunderstood my suggestion ;-)
[01:13] <rajat> Hello?!
[01:13] <dooglus> Shaezsche: but if dapper is anything to judge by, it won't work very well and will break her system :)
[01:13] <RadiantFire> Shaezsche: probably, the update is very easy to do
[01:13] <naylor> sysmin, seems to work ok for me
[01:13] <RadiantFire> Shaezsche: it requires 1 command typed in a terminal
[01:13] <Shaezsche> hyphenated, she could install from the liveCD, but she needs to be able to upgrade.
[01:13] <Shaezsche> saving her home folder partition
[01:13] <dli> Shaezsche, just install on hdd, don't install any service, install bastille + psad, turn off auto-updating
[01:13] <lmh41> hi all, can't get AVM-Fritz!-Card PCI working with capi
[01:14] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: you still misunderstood. I'm saying _you_ play with the live cd, check out the updater program on there, and see if you think she could handle it
[01:14] <sysmin> naylor, It isn't resolving, maybe there is a problem with DNS or something
[01:14] <RogerBacon> naylor : on my ubuntu and with this kernel my modem work
[01:14] <NineTeen67Comet> dli: I will look at apt-proxy .. thank you ..
[01:14] <lmh41> modprobe fcpci gives me FATAL: Module fcpci not found.
[01:14] <Shaezsche> i know she cannot handle it
[01:14] <Shaezsche> she can only browse ebay and answer emails
[01:14] <Shaezsche> thats it
[01:14] <naylor> RogerBacon, what do you use for dialup program?
[01:14] <lmh41> although I compiled all and copied it to the moduledir
[01:14] <lmh41> anybody an idea?
[01:14] <dli> NineTeen67Comet, squid can do the job, but apt-proxy looks like the right way to me
[01:14] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: could she handle if if you wrote down the 5 buttons she has to click?
[01:14] <lmh41> or a hint?
[01:14] <Shaezsche> and thats why i cannot leave her with windows xp
[01:14] <Shaezsche> hyphenated, maybe. but how do i know the future ubuntu versions will be THOSE same buttons
[01:15] <naylor> RogerBacon, i've got it set as /dev/modem in gnomeppp, and there's an autodetect button which says i have no modem
[01:15] <RogerBacon> naylor : do you see your modem on system . admin . netowrk ?
[01:15] <NineTeen67Comet> Jack_Sparrow: Yes I own a 1967 Comet 202 (w/top loader), and a 1967 Mercury Marquis factory 4 speed .. I think Caliente Comets were abundant ..
[01:15] <hyphenated> Shaezsche: you don't. no operating system promises that
[01:15] <stefg> Shaezsche: Trust the devs it WILL be THOSE buttons
[01:15] <cotroler> I realized i got NO SOUND in flash player ...what can i do?
[01:15] <thoreauputic> Shaezsche: Ubuntu is perfect for this kind of user - just put a few icons on her desktop and she can use email and a browser - the rest isn;t important for her
[01:16] <SD> can anyone suggest why the text on some web pages is  blurred and hard to read in ubuntu please?
[01:16] <RogerBacon> naylor : ok, chek your pci devidce : lspci and search your modem
[01:16] <cotroler> I realized i got NO SOUND in flash player ...what can i do?
[01:16] <fusionxn1> UBUNTU detected my 2 etherne tports wereas XP needed drivers!! W00T
[01:16] <thoreauputic> SD: never noticed that
[01:16] <Shaezsche> g2g, thanks for help
[01:16] <jrib> !flash > cotroler
[01:16] <dli> SD, many possible reasons, missing fonts, most likely
[01:16] <hyphenated> SD: I had crappy default DPI settings that caused webpages to look ugly (but not blurry)
[01:16] <fuoco> do h264 files play for anyone in totem/gstreamer10 ?
[01:16] <fusionxn1> Is there any drivers i can use with X-FI sound cards ATM? As ubuntu doesnt detect it
[01:16] <stefg> SD: apt-get install msttcorefonts
[01:17] <Generic> what's that fun command to extract a bzip?
[01:17] <Generic> er
[01:17] <Generic> tar.bz2
[01:17] <hyphenated> bunzip2
[01:17] <naylor> Roger, it's in system, networking but when i click to detect it fails
[01:17] <jrib> Generic: tar jxf file.tar.bz2
[01:17] <hyphenated> or tar jxvf blah.tar.bz2
[01:17] <dli> Generic, tar jxvf foo.tar.bz2
[01:17] <SD> stetg: yeah thanks ive already tried that and they were already installed
[01:18] <dli> Generic, " man tar " for more, but most users need " tar zxvf foo.tar.gz " , " tar jxvf foo.tar.bz2 "
[01:18] <SD> hyphenated: sorry do you know where how i change DPI settings?
[01:18] <RogerBacon> cotroler : sudo apt-get install alsa-oss afther that run firefox with aoss firefox
[01:18] <hyphenated> SD: first, see if it's a problem. do you have an LCD screen?
[01:18] <seek> Hello
[01:18] <tkup> I'm trying to create an LVM on this unused partition and no matter how what I do I get "Incorrect metadata area header checksum"
[01:18] <RogerBacon> naylor : try /dev/modem ?
[01:19] <SD> hyphenated: no, ive got a 19in sony trinitron CRT
[01:19] <naylor> RogerBacon: yeah that's what i got it on
[01:19] <hyphenated> SD: degauss it. it'll be in the monitor's menus
[01:19] <tkup> I've also read and followed lvm-howto.pdf all the way
[01:19] <digitalhav0c> anyone know how i could move my buntu install on another drive (new harddrive) without losing my data
[01:19] <dli> RogerBacon, since he got " no modem found", obiviously, /dev/modem is nothing, there's no working driver
[01:19] <lmh41> Can't get ISDN CAPI working
[01:20] <lmh41> hyphenated: an idea about CAPI ?
[01:20] <Vlet> Is there a way to mount a directory through ssh ("sftp")?
[01:20] <hyphenated> lmh41: nope, I don't have an ISDN line
[01:20] <stefg> digitalhav0c: actually its pretty simple. Be more precise on the scenario
[01:20] <seek> I've tried the latest Ubuntu NVidia driver as well as the package from NVidia's website.  BOTH of of them will start X, but once I'm in X certain things will go blank.. for example, when surfing the web certain parts of the page will go blank.  Also, when I click on a menu sometimes icons do not appear until I move my mouse over them.  PLEASE, any help would be appreciated.
[01:20] <crimsun> Vlet: sshfs.
[01:20] <Vlet> crimsun: thankya
[01:20] <digitalhav0c> stefg, i have another harddrive 200g that i want to move my install on too
[01:21] <lmh41> ANYBODY an idea about CAPI `?
[01:21] <digitalhav0c> buntu is currently installed on another 20gig drive
[01:21] <stefg> digitalhav0c: good for you :-)
[01:21] <SD> hyphenated: yeah that may have worked, thanks. its hard to tell its bad until my eyes start to hur
[01:21] <naylor> dli, RogerBacon says he's got same one, same kernel etc and it works fine, so why wouldn't mine, what if i buy your modem and that doesn't work as his does work?
[01:21] <hyphenated> lmh41: there's a lot of information in the forums and wiki
[01:21] <lmh41> OR Kernelmodules
[01:21] <lmh41> hyphenated: I tried a lot
[01:21] <dli> naylor, do " scanpci -v " , carefully compare the model ID/vendor ID
[01:21] <deny> digitalhav0c why don't you just format the 200gb and then move the system files accordingly
[01:21] <seek_> I've tried the latest Ubuntu NVidia driver as well as the package from NVidia's website.

[01:22] <seek_> sorry, I was disconnected

[01:22] <seek> Oh, and I have a Nvidia 7300 GS PCI-E
[01:22] <stefg> digitalhav0c: what will the 200 G drive be partitoned like?
[01:22] <hyphenated> SD: if it doesn't, you might have a crappy resolution (ie: larger than the monitor supports nicely) or refresh rate (too slow)
[01:22] <digitalhav0c> just mount and mv / to /dev/xxx blah
[01:22] <RogerBacon> naylor : maybee the conexant softmodem driver ?
[01:22] <dli> naylor, modem is such a nasty business, you may got different model ID from the similar name in lspci

[01:23] <fusionxn1> Hello, is there any X-FI linux drivers 1st or 3rd party?
[01:23] <fusionxn1> like Alsa ones?
[01:23] <dli> naylor, the website of linuxant.com has a table of modem model IDs

[01:23] <naylor> http://pastebin.ca/102819
[01:23] <seek_> Anyone have any clue why my Nvidia 7300 GS is not working correctly?  If I use "nvidia" module it blanks out certain parts of the screen, if I use "nv" my system freezes
[01:23] <crimsun> fusionxn1: non-functional yet, but alsa ones are in the works.
[01:23] <fusionxn1> oh crap - so no sound at all?
[01:23] <naylor> RogerBacon, what about comparing your "sudo  scanpci -v" to my above pastebin, are they the same?
[01:24] <crimsun> fusionxn1: corret.
[01:24] <digitalhav0c> anyone got any sugguestions?
[01:24] <crimsun> correct ^
[01:24] <fusionxn1> Well thats put me off ubuntu now
[01:24] <crimsun> fusionxn1: don't worry, no Linux/BSD/UNIX has them :)
[01:24] <fusionxn1> i know
[01:24] <ida01> Hi! I would like to install Apache 2.2.2 Web Server in Ubuntu or Debian Etch - any hint of a repository (because I do not know other way to install Apache - well I do not know to install it at all - I am just learning)
[01:24] <deny> digitalhav0c you would have to work with fdisk, then remove or edit the boot script to add the drive as an option
[01:24] <fusionxn1> creative said Q2 2007 for 1st party drivers
[01:24] <RogerBacon> naylor : what i do afther typing sudo scanpci -v ?
[01:25] <digitalhav0c> probably easier to reinstall correct?
[01:25] <stefg> digitalhav0c: the second option would involve gaining a backup. you could use partimage to save your existing install and write it back the nwe drive
[01:25] <deny> yes
[01:25] <stefg> !info partimage
[01:25] <ubotu> partimage: backup partitions into a compressed image file. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-14 (dapper), package size 261 kB, installed size 936 kB
[01:25] <dli> RogerBacon, just pastebin the modem section
[01:25] <seek_> Does anyone have a GeForce 7300 GS or has had similair problems with a Nvidia card where "nv" freezes, and "nvidia" module blanks out the screen at certain times?
[01:25] <naylor> RogerBacon, that's it, put your pass in if it asks and you'll get a read out as dli suggested
[01:25] <polpak> anyone know what the recent updates to firefox are intended to fix?

[01:28] <c|int> hey all, I did that.. iwlist scanning or somethign. showed me Cell 1 , 2 , and 3 etc.. and the wireless access points, so how would I go about connecting to 1 of them, at college
[01:28] <digitalhav0c> i might be incorrect not sure
[01:28] <digitalhav0c> new to linux :)
[01:29] <dli> naylor, conexant modems should work with linuxant.com, but the price for a driver license is more expensive than what I paid for a real modem
[01:29] <naylor> dli, thanks a lot dude
[01:29] <deny> well, the games are in the /usr/local/games folder
[01:29] <seek> Renan_s2:  I think I know what the problem is, but I don't know how to fix it.  This card uses 256MB of my RAM (Shared Mem)...  It has 256Meg of RAM of it's own.  I've tried setting videoram to both 512 and 256 in the xorg.conf, but no success.  :(

[01:29] <digitalhav0c> NineTeen67Comet, thanks
[01:30] <naylor> dli, not sure!! the one i got in is pci
[01:30] <minew> how do i get my tv out to work
[01:30] <dli> naylor, if you have serial port there, it's guranteed working
[01:30] <RogerBacon> naylor : http://linmodems.org/
[01:30] <dli> naylor, have a look at the box
[01:30] <Renan_s2> http://linmodems.technion.ac.il is better
[01:30] <dli> naylor, because a real serial port modem doesn't need a driver in linux, it simply works
[01:30] <naylor> dli, i don't have the box for the modem, or do you mean look at the computer? where am i looking?
[01:30] <sergiol> can someboby tell me why /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.0 does nothing?

[01:31] <nixen9> need help with Insight debugger anyone ?
[01:31] <Renan_s2> sergiol, /etc/init.d/ scripts require 'start', 'stop' or 'restart'

[01:33] <minew> u remember the site
[01:33] <dli> naylor, if you want pci, you may have to do literature search again :( on serial port modem is guranteed to be real modem (no driver needed in linux)
[01:33] <stefg> digitalhav0c: you can just move your existing install if you want to, there's only some minor catches to look after
[01:33] <seek> Renan_s2:  What should I do?
[01:33] <minew> how do i turn it on

[01:35] <naylor> dli, i would prefer internal, less bits better as this computer not for me and needs to travel to abroad to new owner when i've got it ready for them - more bits more can break and more to ship! is there no way of buying a pci modem that will guarenteed work?
[01:35] <Bartman007> has anyone here successfully installed Postfix with TLS support, I can't get Postfix to report that it supports TLS even though I've followed the server guide.
[01:35] <Renan_s2> naylor, buy a modem with a Smart Link chipset
[01:35] <Renan_s2> I used one on Linux for years
[01:35] <Renan_s2> there are some very good drivers for them
[01:35] <dli> naylor, yes, I heard some slmodem success stories, but no experience here
[01:36] <naylor> Renan_s2, thanks for the tip - will these just work or do i have to install drivers and stuff?
[01:36] <minew> ok
[01:36] <Renan_s2> naylor, you have to install drivers
[01:36] <Renan_s2> but they're easy

[01:50] <minew> yeah
[01:50] <pennypacker> pci 0 = agp
[01:50] <RogerBacon> hey, wath do you tink about debian 4 (etch) futur new feature ?
[01:50] <Warbo> michael: I think iPods use the second partition for data storage if you want to mount it manually or put it in fstab, but that may stop it from automounting when you plug it in
[01:50] <minew> i have a nvidia agp tv out video card
[01:51] <minew> its what i am using now
[01:51] <stefg> !offtopic > RogerBacon
[01:51] <pennypacker> go to the nvidia site
[01:51] <michael> Warbo: can I mount it without adding a line to fstab?  Also, is there an easy way of finding out how many drives I have that are USB, SCSI etc?
[01:51] <minew> i did
[01:51] <NineTeen67Comet> minew: TV out .. then it's svideo ..
[01:51] <ViperAFK> i've tried looking through multimedia support ect... all yms ound works ecept for in web pages
[01:51] <minew> no it is rca
[01:51] <pennypacker> & look in in the xorg configuration docs
[01:51] <pennypacker> faster: google xorg.conf + tvout
[01:51] <Warbo> michael: I would advise against the fstab way, since it is not a permanent drive. "fdisk -l" should show all partitions on all drives, so you should be able to guess whichis which
[01:52] <michael> Warbo: Thanks for the advice. I'll let you know how it goes.
[01:52] <minew> NineTeen67Comet any ideas
[01:53] <InvisiblePinkUni> jrib: is it possible to upgrade to 64bit through synaptic?
[01:53] <Somebody_> NickServ
[01:53] <theoverload> who can me help and speak german
[01:53] <jrib> InvisiblePinkUni: I do not believe so

[01:53] <Warbo> AA! This keeps happening, I come in here for help and end up solving every problem except my own. I don't mind so much, but Windows' font rendering is hurting my eyes :(
[01:53] <michael> Warbo: fdisk -l only shows my physical disk drives.  Does that mean my usb isn't properly configured?
[01:53] <InvisiblePinkUni> jrib: thank you
[01:53] <Warbo> michael: If the iPod is plugged in it should show up. Try "lsusb" I think
[01:53] <pennypacker> or type "man xorg.conf" in console
[01:54] <michael> Warbo: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[01:54] <michael> Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[01:54] <Warbo> michael: Wow, that seems really helpful :)
[01:55] <fusionxn1> Hi, does anyone have a logitech g15 here?
[01:55] <Warbo> michael: Try "ls /dev/sd*" and see what happens (BTW, is your hard drive USB, SCSI or SATA, or just plain IDE?)
[01:55] <michael> Warbo: I know ;). That's the output of lsusb..
[01:55] <minew> NineTeen67Comet ao what do u think
[01:56] <michael> Warbo: 2 IDE drives.  A dead IBM death star and a WD 160GB.
[01:56] <Warbo> michael: Then I would venture that your iPod is sda and that it's data is stored on sda2
[01:56] <michael> Warbo: no such device or directory.
[01:56] <godtvisken> Anyone know of anymore applications like Alexandria?
[01:57] <AndyCooll> theoverload: Have you tried #ubuntu-de?
[01:57] <Warbo> michael: Wow, this is getting a little serious. Maybe "sudo modprobe usb-storage" would create the device?
[01:57] <minew> can any one help me with getting my tv out to work
[01:58] <Warbo> Can anyone troubleshoot a Sagem Fast800 USB modem?
[01:58] <fusionxn1> No one have a G15???
[01:58] <Frankenstein> hi, can someone tell me how i can PREVENT ubuntu from trying to use 192.168.15.1 as a nameserver?
[01:58] <Guuuug> hi
[01:58] <stefg> !hi
[01:58] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:58] <help-the-n00b> !nick
[01:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about nick - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[01:58] <help-the-n00b> I can't join #Python.
[01:59] <michael> Warbo: that command didn't give me any output, but the result is still the same. No /dev/sd*, no listing in fdisk.. :(
[01:59] <Warbo> Frankenstein: You could add it to /etc/hosts.deny to completely block it doing anything, but specifically nameserver, I don't know
[01:59] <ablomen> Frankenstein: shure, use a static ip
[01:59] <Frankenstein> help-the-n00b: try regging your nick
[01:59] <Guuuug> anyone here who can help me with my nfs problems?
[01:59] <dooglus> Frankenstein: configure DHCP not to set the DNS server
[01:59] <Warbo> michael: Well modprobe only gives output when there is a problem, so that is a good sign
[01:59] <AndyCooll> theoverload: If you want a German speaking channel have you tried #ubuntu-de?
[01:59] <stefg> help-the-n00b: we were thru this already...
[01:59] <Frankenstein> hmm
[01:59] <help-the-n00b> Sorry. I was playing a game.
[01:59] <minew> NineTeen67Comet u still there
[02:00] <Silver-SuBZ3R0> Bonjour tout le monde :)
[02:00] <help-the-n00b> How do I register?
[02:00] <stefg> !offtopic > help-the-n00b
[02:00] <AndyCooll> Frankenstein: And your nfs problem is?
[02:00] <Frankenstein> ?
[02:00] <Frankenstein> nfs?
[02:00] <ablomen> AndyCooll: thats Guuuug
[02:00] <help-the-n00b> ?
[02:00] <AndyCooll> Sorry!
[02:01] <Frankenstein> ... anyway, i just made an entry to hosts.deny: 192.168.15.1 ALL
[02:01] <minew> can any one help me with getting my tv out to work
[02:01] <Guuuug> i have 2 dapper live cd bootups. one to act as a nfs server and the other one to mount the share.
[02:01] <ablomen> minew: is that an nvidia card?
[02:01] <jrib> help-the-n00b: ubotu told you how to register before, check your private messages
[02:01] <Warbo> minew: Have you checked the Wiki? I saw some pages on there for TV out
[02:01] <Guuuug> but i keep getting permission denied
[02:01] <minew> 4
[02:02] <minew> thats what i am doing now
[02:02] <ablomen> minew: if its a nvidia card, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOut
[02:02] <Guuuug> i'm working with live cd's to narrow down the possible problems, since i've been poking around a lot of files on my installed ubuntu's
[02:02] <minew> i also want to know how to change my video from pci to agp
[02:03] <Warbo> michael: To be honest I don't have an iPod, and when I borrowed one from a friend for data storage it automounted fine. The only advise I know is general USB HD stuff
[02:03] <AndyCooll> Guuuug: On the client, did you type "sudo mount ...etc"?
[02:03] <Guuuug> i've made a detailed list of steps i've made to get the things working at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224299
[02:03] <Guuuug> yeah i did
[02:03] <dooglus> Frankenstein: in /etc/dhclient.conf put "prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;", or whatever DNS you want to use
[02:03] <Guuuug> that returned the permission denied
[02:03] <minew> i also want to know how to change my video from pci to agp
[02:04] <NineTeen67Comet> minew: yeah I'm here .. dinkin' roun' other places ..
[02:04] <minew> i also want to know how to change my video from pci to agp
[02:04] <michael> Warbo: well, I don't want to trouble you any further.. I'll just read the man pages for depmod and modprobe and see if I can get something happening.  An iPod should function the same as a USB HD though, correct?  If you know of any online resources, fell free to point me in that direction.
[02:04] <Renan_s2> minew, AGP *is* PCI. I think that only the signaling/protocol changes
[02:05] <NineTeen67Comet> minew: you rinning two cards?
[02:05] <Frankenstein> dooglus: i have no /etc/dhclient.conf
[02:05] <fusionxn1> Anyone have a G15?
[02:05] <minew> no
[02:05] <dooglus> Frankenstein: oh, ok
[02:05] <BrianTwizzler> I Installed ubuntu for the first time today and I'm having trouble getting my wireless card to work, I *tried* checking the faq, but unless i was in the wrong place found it only covered basic information
[02:05] <Frankenstein> its just that my ISP's dns servers are very slow
[02:06] <Warbo> michael: Yes, an iPod acts like a regular USB HD for saving data, it is just the adding and removing of songs that you need a special app for like gtkpod (unless you don't want to play the music on the iPod)
[02:06] <dooglus> Frankenstein: what about /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf?  got one of them?
[02:06] <minew> so i should not change those
[02:06] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[02:07] <NineTeen67Comet> minew: how come you need to switch? I mean unless you are running two cards, only one will work? agp or pci .. lspci will show you agp as well (Don't let that confuse you) .. your nvidia card should be agp (I run an FX5700 in this box, and an FX5500 in my other, both with TV out.. I just change my xorg.conf and switch between tv and dvi/analog)
[02:07] <BrianTwizzler> ablomen: it detects my wireless card, it jsut doesn't seem to function
[02:07] <Frankenstein> dooglus: why yes it does! how do i give it more than one dns server though
[02:07] <Warbo> Great, now Firefox isn't working. Don't ya just love Windows :)
[02:07] <dooglus> Frankenstein: mine says 'request domain-name-servers' - you could remove that bit - then it won't mess with your DNS servers
[02:07] <minew> ok
[02:07] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: you mean detect like it see's it in the device manager but doenst work?
[02:07] <digitalhav0c> i guess im reinstalling
[02:07] <BrianTwizzler> ablomen: I used a wrapper once before (2-3 years ago) with mandrake, thought I might be able to get around that by now
[02:07] <Frankenstein> dooglus: ill try, let me backup this file first
[02:08] <dooglus> Frankenstein: if dhcp doesn't mess with your DNS list, then you can edit it manually and it should stay how you put it.  sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf
[02:08] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: depends on the chipset ;)
[02:08] <dooglus> Frankenstein: good idea - I've no idea what I'm talking about...
[02:08] <help-the-n00b> How do you tell Ubutu to tell me something?
[02:08] <Frankenstein> it always stayed expect when it would ask the router for a new ip
[02:08] <BrianTwizzler> ablome: I mean it i go to network settings, its listed as eth1, and active, but i can't connect to anything
[02:08] <Frankenstein> echo?
[02:08] <NineTeen67Comet> digitalhav0c: Re-installing is a great way to learn .. When I first jumped on the *nix bandwagon, I was re-installing a few times a day . now, it's only when I try something new .. like xgl was the last thing to bork it bad enough I gave up and re-installed ..
[02:09] <stefg> NineTeen67Comet: but just wait until you've reached a comfortable plateau... stisfaction guaranteed :-)
[02:09] <help-the-n00b> Frankenstein, The command or language?
[02:09] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: If you mean ubotu then it is "!whatyouwanttoknow > username"
[02:09] <digitalhav0c> NineTeen67Comet, i have xgl working
[02:09] <digitalhav0c> on my box if you need a good tutorial for it i have one
[02:09] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: ah ok well then i dont know whats wrong, srry, maybe someone else
[02:09] <digitalhav0c> you wont really learn anything but it will work
[02:09] <digitalhav0c> :)
[02:09] <help-the-n00b> So !Ubuntu > help-the-n00b
[02:09] <NineTeen67Comet> stefg: I'm good to go now .. haven't had MS installed in a couple years .. digitalhav0c .. yes I'm running dual monitors with xgl now .. love it .. for the most part .. (Centers stuff between the screens though, and alt+click is the only way to move them ) ..
[02:09] <help-the-n00b> !Ubuntu > help-the-n00b
[02:09] <rod> hey.. i'm a new one with ubunto
[02:10] <AndyCooll> Guuuug: I'm no NFS export. However notes I've made in the past say it is worth installing nfs-common (which I think you have done) and nfs-kernel-server on the server
[02:10] <mike-e> !easysource
[02:10] <digitalhav0c> yeah
[02:10] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[02:10] <rod> how do i fix the font using the firefox?
[02:10] <digitalhav0c> NineTeen67Comet, the only problem i had with xgl
[02:10] <digitalhav0c> was when i went to watch a movie or play a game
[02:10] <digitalhav0c> like ut
[02:10] <digitalhav0c> or something like that
[02:10] <BrianTwizzler> ablomen: the only thing i can think of is when I open properties, enter the SSID that I'm trying to connect to, it asks for a key type, and "none" sin't an option
[02:10] <RRubin> where did the livecd go from the download page? am i missing something?
[02:11] <Zyfo> When I press ctrl+alt+esc ubuntu marks in order: the whole desktop, the menu bar and the label I've got. What is this for?
[02:11] <NineTeen67Comet> digitalhav0c: yeah, games SUCK! .. Center on dual monitors, and one is a smaller monitor so it's messy .. but daily work stuff, perfect .. love the wobble ..
[02:11] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: did it work on the same laptop with windows?
[02:11] <mike-e> HI this is a fresh install of hoary hedgehog, i need to upgrade to breezy, it's been a while since i had to do this can someone point me in the right direction?
[02:11] <BrianTwizzler> yes
[02:11] <NineTeen67Comet> RRubin: the live cd is part of the install cd now ..
[02:11] <minew> ok i am going to restart i hope it work
[02:11] <BrianTwizzler> after i downloaded the drivers from HOP
[02:11] <BrianTwizzler> **HP
[02:12] <Guuuug> andycool: i have indeed installed both on both systems
[02:12] <Warbo> !upgrade > ablomen
[02:12] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: hmm maybe its the encryption, wait a sec
[02:12] <Warbo> ablomen: Sorry!
[02:12] <NineTeen67Comet> minew: if you are only wanting to check your video, you can just restart X .. the messy way .. ctrl+alt+backspace ..
[02:12] <RRubin> NineTeen67Comet: huh. that changed after 6.06 came out though? or am i halucinating?
[02:12] <mike-e> haha
[02:12] <Guuuug> and the server even logs autheticated
[02:12] <mike-e> !upgrade
[02:12] <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.
[02:12] <ablomen> Warbo: np
[02:12] <Warbo> mike-e: Ok, you found out by yourself :)
[02:12] <NineTeen67Comet> RRubin: yeah, it'll boot to a desktop, with an install icon on it .. then you can just select upgrade/repair something like that ..
[02:13] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide << maybe this helps
[02:13] <NineTeen67Comet> Haven't used Ubuntu that long (came from Gentoo) ..
[02:13] <mike-e> warbo: so i should add breezy repositories right?
[02:13] <RRubin> NineTeen67Comet: so the text install is no more?
[02:13] <BrianTwizzler> ablomen: that is what i was thinking ... that it might be trying to use a blank encryption key instead of no key
[02:13] <Warbo> mike-e: I would guess so, but Breezy was my first Ubuntu
[02:13] <Guuuug> anyone here expertise in NFS?
[02:13] <BrianTwizzler> ablomen: ok I'll give it a lok
[02:13] <AndyCooll> Guuuug: And on your server, does your "exports" say something along the lines of "/share 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,async)"?
[02:13] <BrianTwizzler> **look
[02:14] <NineTeen67Comet> RRubin: Might be a selection when you boot off the new disc .. I think it's there .. (I'm a cli install fan myself) ..
[02:14] <Guuuug> andycool: yeah it does
[02:14] <mike-e> warbo: well, when you upgraded to dapper do you remember if you had to swap your breezy repos with dapper? =P
[02:14] <ablomen> BrianTwizzler: good luck!
[02:14] <RRubin> NineTeen67Comet: yeah, the gui is nice, but slower and not all systems have acceptable guis
[02:14] <Guuuug> andycool: i've tried all sorts of lines there, most of them correct with the same result
[02:14] <Warbo> mike-e: Yes, then I updated and dist-upgraded. But I wouldn't like to say that is definitive, 'cos I would feel bad if your system broke
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Yahoooooo... just remastered my first Ubuntu Livecd
[02:15] <NineTeen67Comet> RRubin: I used the server disc on my server, and it was great .. Only needed a monitor until I got openssh installed ..
[02:15] <mike-e> ah well it's fresh so i could just reinstall., i'll give it a try
[02:15] <mike-e> thanks
[02:15] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Yahoo remastered your CD? Did they add their messenger and stuff?
[02:15] <Guuuug> andycool, incorrect share options gave me different errors
[02:15] <Zyfo> Ouch, I pressed that ctlr+alt+backspace someone wrote out of curiosity, now what's the need for such a evil shortcut? :D
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Warbo: custom cd
[02:15] <neb_> ok so I just installed kubuntu onto an old compaq laptop I'm going to use as a print server. Everything seems fine on the laptop but when I'm trying to connect to it, the connection keeps dropping. If I send any network traffic directly from the laptop the problem disappears for about 20 sec
[02:15] <NineTeen67Comet> brb
[02:15] <neb_> I'm not sure where to look first.
[02:15] <RRubin> NineTeen67Comet: nod. the minimal bit is nice too. i missed that in breezy when i went from debian
[02:15] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Morphix is good for that. I made a game CD for someone recently
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Warbo: This was my first Ub custom
[02:16] <fusionxn1> If i was to download a theme from gnome-look.org which one do i get GTK v1 or GTK v2?
[02:16] <davidX__> hmm can i access my sidekicks sd card with the default ubuntu install?
[02:16] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: It was a joke about Yahoo by the way :)
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[02:16] <Warbo> fusionxn1: GTK2 is used by most things
[02:16] <Warbo> fusionxn1: (that aren't KDE :) )
[02:16] <fusionxn1> K so if i download one it will work?
[02:17] <Zyfo> When I press ctrl+alt+esc ubuntu marks in order: the whole desktop, the menu bar and the label I've got. What is this for?
[02:17] <Warbo> fusionxn1: Just drag it into the themes window or extract it in ~/.themes
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Warbo: THis program for remastering should be made public in maybe a month
[02:17] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: Cool
[02:17] <fusionxn1> k thanks
[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Warbo: Python script, but needs a few more options and some docs...
[02:18] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: I have been trying to test some custom CDs to try out some nice installation/setup scripts I have made, but making the CD itself seemed like too much hard work
[02:18] <fusionxn1> oops
[02:18] <swim> hey folks, I have a pvr-150 with a remote, I'd like to set it up, and do so so that the remote can work with other applications... just as a sort of general remote, for my music app, and video app mainly... can anyone point me in the right direction?
[02:19] <GuitarHero11> hey simple question, how do I change the splash screen?
[02:19] <Warbo> swim: You will want to research LIRC probably. I know Mplayer and XMMS can use it, not sure about others though
[02:19] <Warbo> GuitarHero11: The login or the boot?
[02:19] <GuitarHero11> boot
[02:19] <GuitarHero11> the one that says gnome, metacity
[02:19] <francisc> is there a way to detect which driver my wireless card is using?
[02:20] <Warbo> GuitarHero11: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomisation I think, but I don't think it works on Dapper
[02:20] <Warbo> GuitarHero11: Oh, that is not boot

[02:21] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[02:22] <Warbo> Zyfo: I think just making the panel wider should do it
[02:22] <Zyfo> Warbo: nope, I tried make it max size, didn't help.
[02:22] <minew> is there any one in here i was talking to
[02:22] <Frankenstein> where can i find the x server config so i can increase my screen resolution
[02:22] <Warbo> Zyfo: As in, thickness not length?
[02:22] <francisc>  my card should be a prism 1 and I have it working using an unencrypted network, but I'm apparantly not using the driver I thought I was (hostap) as when I try to configure wpa_supplicant using that driver it gives me an error.

[02:25] <ubuntu_unix> helooooooooooooooooo
[02:25] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:25] <Warbo> Zyfo: You can also tell the task switcher thing to only use a certain amount of space, so that can force it to use two rows even when there is extra room
[02:25] <agamotto> InvisiblePinkUni:  Be prepared for some pain if you want to try 64-bit
[02:25] <InvisiblePinkUni> agamotto: why?
[02:26] <InvisiblePinkUni> agamotto: i want apache + ssl, subversion and openssh
[02:26] <dead_kelly> is something up with the update servers?
[02:26] <knoppix> i was having boot problems and i foolishly wrote over my mbr with my windows repair disk. how can i restore the MBR so I can dual boot again?
[02:26] <Zyfo> Warbo: ah, I was just trying something with that I believe. I wasn't too sure what it did so I tried making it min 10 max 20, so now I can't place my cursor at the right place to get it back again ;P Any ideas?
[02:26] <agamotto> Many multimedia programs don't have 64-bit code yet
[02:26] <Warbo> InvisiblePinkUni: proprietary stuff is usually 32bit only, but pretty much all Free Software can be 64bit
[02:26] <agamotto> I won't even get into some of the fun I had with an AM2 machine
[02:26] <Zyfo> Warbo: Nevermind, I managed. Thanks for the help.
[02:26] <Dravas> thx
[02:26] <InvisiblePinkUni> agamotto: i just want server programs with gnome and other gui
[02:27] <InvisiblePinkUni> Warbo: :)
[02:27] <agamotto> Warbo:  Yah, but I couldn't get any 64-bit version of Ubuntu, SuSE, or Gentoo to run off the hd on one machine
[02:27] <agamotto> InvisiblePinkUni:  You might be ok then
[02:27] <InvisiblePinkUni> agamotto: hopefully :)
[02:27] <agamotto> Just check the forums for your particular mobo... just in case
[02:27] <Warbo> agamotto: Ha, hard drives. Who needs 'em?
[02:27] <lufis> What is with the too-high contrast in all of the video players?
[02:28] <francisc> exit
[02:28] <agamotto> I wasted two weeks on one machine, and could not get any 64-bit linux to run from it
[02:28] <Warbo> lufis: Maybe your preferences?
[02:28] <warlock> How to check the incomming/outgoing bandwidth on my server? I need to see if I have 100/100mbit or not.
[02:28] <dead_kelly> er hello, does anyone know if the update servers are down?
[02:28] <lufis> Warbo: I don't believe so. It was doing it by default
[02:28] <c|int> hey all
[02:28] <agamotto> dead_kelly:  No, they are fine.  I just did apt-get update
[02:29] <InvisiblePinkUni> !md5
[02:29] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[02:29] <lufis> Warbo: Besides, it isn't per-application. Every video player plays all video files with washed-out colors and way too much brightness
[02:29] <knoppix> i was having boot problems and i foolishly wrote over my mbr with my windows repair disk. how can i restore the MBR so I can dual boot again?
[02:29] <DBO> !grub > knoppix
[02:29] <Frankenstein> umm how do i restart the x server?
[02:30] <Warbo> lufis: Still, gconf-editor has a few settings for Totem, and MPlayer and VLC have loads of options
[02:30] <help-the-n00b> I opened a file with nano fillename. How do I save my hanges?
[02:30] <delerius> yay
[02:30] <DBO> Frankenstein, ctrl alt backspace (assuming its already running)
[02:30] <delerius> fixed my email problem
[02:30] <Pikciurna> i have adsl conexant adapter, ubuntu can`t detect it, and i can`t find drivers for it, any advise?
[02:30] <Frankenstein> yea, thanks
[02:30] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: ctrl-X will exit, and it will ask to save changes
[02:30] <lufis> Warbo: Yes, but it isn't any of my prefs. It's been doing it since a clean install.
[02:30] <c|int> need hellp, figuring out.. the wireless issue
[02:30] <c|int> got it seeing the access points, but won't connect...
[02:30] <tjb891> does anyone know of a good GUI for wine
[02:30] <help-the-n00b> So the ^ is CTRL?
[02:30] <Warbo> Pikciurna: You checked wiki.ubuntu.com/UsbAdslModem ?
[02:30] <c|int> CodeWEavers CrossOver :-)
[02:31] <nosklo> help-the-n00b, yes, ^ is ctrl
[02:31] <Pikciurna> i have internal pci adapter

[02:31] <Zyfo> Oh Stupdi me
[02:31] <Zyfo> Sorry, wrong question, ignore that all.
[02:31] <help-the-n00b> What happens if I nano a .jpeg?
[02:31] <Zyfo> When I press ctrl+alt+esc ubuntu marks in order: the whole desktop, the menu bar and the label I've got. What is this for?
[02:32] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: It will complain that it is binary
[02:32] <help-the-n00b> What isn't?
[02:32] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: Save us from silly questions. If you are that interested just try it and see what happens
[02:32] <Kyral> there are only two types of people in this world yanno :P
[02:32] <help-the-n00b> Oh. Ok.
[02:32] <help-the-n00b> Sorry.
[02:32] <dead_kelly> agamotto must be my config then... I just loaded it up on this G3 iBook, it's got net access because, well I am chatting to yall on it. Using Dapper...
[02:32] <Kyral> oh damnit I blew the punchline
[02:32] <Kyral> ahem

[02:33] <delerius> what is a good mp3 player for ubuntu?
[02:33] <RandomDude15> amarok
[02:33] <agamotto> dead_kelly:  Or it could just be a glitch in your area
[02:33] <help-the-n00b> Itunes!
[02:33] <Warbo> !amarok
[02:33] <Dravas> -_-
[02:33] <ubotu> amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.1 and packages are available for Kubuntu at: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.1.php
[02:33] <help-the-n00b> Oh. Sorry.
[02:33] <delerius> ive got version 1.3 installed
[02:33] <RandomDude15> !mythtv
[02:33] <Kyral> AmaroK, XMMS, Audacious, Banshee
[02:33] <ubotu> mythtv is for watching TV in Linux.  Check out http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/16/instructions-to-install-mythtv/
[02:33] <agamotto> I have had that happen before
[02:33] <delerius> but it won't play music from my jump drive
[02:33] <Kyral> Rhytembox
[02:33] <Dravas> Terminal is still the default for EXE Files
[02:33] <Dravas> Blah
[02:33] <Kyral> PICK ONE!

[02:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about avidemux - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:33] <Kyral> EXEs suck
[02:33] <agamotto> KnoppMyth makes the process much easier
[02:33] <Dravas> I know
[02:34] <dead_kelly>  agamotto http://ie.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/Release.gpg: Connection failed [IP: 193.1.193.69 80] 
[02:34] <Pikciurna> can anyone explain me what is conexant adapter ad where to start searching info how to make it work?
[02:34] <Kyral> unless its in Mega Man Battle Network and you are talking abotu MegaMan.EXE :D
[02:34] <^majik^> hmm.. hey guys.  I've just installed Ubuntu 6.0.6 Server on my Mini-ITX x86 server.  After the install, it'll get to grub and attempt to boot Ubuntu Server.  It gets to "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel." and then sits there.  Any ideas?  I've already tried appending "acpi=off apm=off" to the kernel line in the grub menu.
[02:34] <agamotto> Connexant adapters are usually LAN pci cards
[02:34] <InvisiblePinkUni> how do i check md5sum after i burnt the ISO onto a cd?
[02:34] <Pikciurna> i have pci card
[02:35] <Pikciurna> and what else?
[02:35] <tjb891> does anyone know if there is a GUI for wine?
[02:35] <ezenu> InvisiblePinkUni, ~$ md5sum myiso.iso
[02:35] <Warbo> Pikciurna: If it a 56K modem then you are pretty screwed. Connexant carge for their drivers, unless you want 4kbit
[02:35] <jj__> try crossover office?
[02:35] <ezenu> oh, oops
[02:35] <tristanmike> tjb891: you'd want Cedega
[02:35] <MenZa> tjb891, there is. I forgot what it's called though (for configuration etc.)
[02:36] <InvisiblePinkUni> ezenu: i already burnt the iso onto a cd...
[02:36] <Warbo> winecfg
[02:36] <MenZa> That's it.
[02:36] <tjb891> cedega is proprietary though and it costs money
[02:36] <^majik^> InvisiblePinkUni: what I do is use the 'dd' command to create an image of my newly created CD, and then md5sum the original and the image I just created from the CD and see if they match
[02:36] <tjb891> thx
[02:36] <warlock> How to check the incomming/outgoing bandwidth on my server? I need to see if I have 100/100mbit or not.
[02:36] <Pikciurna> Warbo i need drivers, but dont know where to find it
[02:36] <Warbo> tjb891: winecfg is part of WINE. Don't go searching for it :)
[02:36] <agamotto> Cedega is only $5.50 per month
[02:36] <^majik^> InvisiblePinkUni: ie, dd if=/dev/hdb1 of=/home/me/cd.iso
[02:36] <tjb891> so i run it from the command line then
[02:37] <Pikciurna> i need even slow internet conection
[02:37] <tjb891> yeah, booting windows is cheapers than that
[02:37] <^majik^> InvisiblePinkUni: where hdb is your CD-ROM
[02:37] <Warbo> Pikciurna: Is it a modem or a network (LAN) card?
[02:37] <Pikciurna> but i need it!
[02:37] <InvisiblePinkUni> ^majik^: ok....
[02:37] <Pikciurna> not a lan card i know
[02:37] <Warbo> Pikciurna: Try at their homepage (connexant.com or something)
[02:37] <agamotto> True, but some of us hate Windows enough that we don't mind
[02:37] <Pikciurna> i have very strange adapter ;/
[02:38] <tjb891> i hate it but i don't hate the games that need it to run
[02:38] <^majik^> InvisiblePinkUni: thats to check that I'd burned a good copy.  I guess thats what you wanted
[02:38] <fusionxn1> Good news everyone: I'm going to install ubuntu as my only OS in a sec :)
[02:38] <tjb891> so i keep a copy for games to be used only for that purpose
[02:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> ^majik^: yes... thanks :)
[02:38] <Pikciurna> is adapter=modem?
[02:38] <fusionxn1> Only thing is my tv tuner, X-FI card and zboard fang anit supported :(
[02:38] <^majik^> InvisiblePinkUni: its a round about way of doing it, but the only way that I know of  =o
[02:39] <agamotto> Pikciurna:  Nope, ethernet card
[02:39] <unity> hello i have a small problem with xorg, when i switch between two servers running on :0 and :1, my screen goes black for a second, it looks like the monitor is trying to change resolution settings. why is this? both of the xorgs have the save resolution settings, (although different virtual screen size) but whereas when i switch between consoles, it is instananeous, the screen does not go black or change resolution.
[02:39] <fusionxn1> Does cedega play EVERY game - even PREY?
[02:39] <tonyyarusso> winmodem question: anyone gotten the one on a Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop to work?
[02:39] <tjb891> isn't there a way to compile the source to cedega yourself
[02:39] <help-the-n00b> How do I install Amarok?
[02:39] <unity> tjb891: cvs?
[02:39] <Renan_s2> help-the-n00b, sudo apt-get install amarok
[02:39] <tjb891> yep, i think
[02:39] <help-the-n00b> K.
[02:39] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: it appears it should play prey
[02:39] <agamotto> I don't know about every game, but I am playing Morrowind, Civ4, and a few others
[02:39] <Pikciurna> so i dont need to have modem to connect to internet? just pci adapter?
[02:40] <c|int> so, anyone might know a wireless issue, small issue
[02:40] <fusionxn1> trista! SWEET
[02:40] <warlock> how do I check my exact bandwidth speed on my server?
[02:40] <fusionxn1> brb installing ubuntu
[02:40] <Warbo> AA! This modem problem is really annoying! Googling for Linux just gives installation instructions, whilst Googling generically gives an apparently common BSOD problem. Nothing about the light only flashing 5 times rather than 6 (and searching for that specifically gives no results)
[02:40] <Guuuug> looking voor nfs experts
[02:41] <spiderwork> hey all, ubuntu installed default with a 386 kernel.... ive been using that for months, its seemed a bit slower and opengl apps would stutter... today i installed a 686 kernel and the thing flies, opengl apps run without problems
[02:41] <c|int> hey all, I need a wireless expert, almost got this issue figured out
[02:41] <agamotto> Warbo:  As wierd as it sounds, try the manufacturer's website for the lights
[02:41] <Warbo> agamotto: Yeah, but their server is down :(
[02:41] <technel> I am making a cronjob. Is there a way to trigger a beep?
[02:41] <spiderwork> i feel like there's a lesson i should be learning here, but i dont know enough about the difference between 386 and 686 to know which lesson it is
[02:41] <technel> like from the computer itself
[02:41] <agamotto> Warbo:  ahh
[02:41] <Renan_s2> spiderwork, 686 = optimized for Pentium
[02:41] <tuliogui> how do i install a mouse theme??
[02:41] <Renan_s2> spiderwork, 386 = generic
[02:42] <Ashex> damn highlights
[02:42] <Renan_s2> a 386 package works in a 686, but not the opposite
[02:42] <Warbo> !info gcursor
[02:42] <ubotu> gcursor: gnome cursor theme managing software. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.061-ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 14 kB, installed size 152 kB
[02:42] <Vlet> Should I be able to apt-get sshfs, or do I need to get the package elsewhere?
[02:42] <spiderwork> Renan_s2: im actually on one of those laptops with a dual core intel chip... operteron, maybe?
[02:42] <Renan_s2> spiderwork, then you can use 686
[02:42] <Noumaan> is it possible to view a webpage using a socks proxy on port 1080?
[02:42] <tuliogui> Warbo: whats the name of the software in the repository??
[02:43] <spiderwork> Renan_s2: thanks :)
[02:43] <Renan_s2> if your machine is any Pentium/Athlon/Opteron/Xeon then use 686...
[02:43] <Renan_s2> ;)
[02:43] <Cdddddd> can someone help me ?
[02:43] <spiderwork> Renan_s2: where is the list of chips / linux kernels so i know which to use in the future?
[02:43] <Guuuug> anyone here got a nfs server running?
[02:44] <Cdddddd> how can i login as root ?
[02:44] <Renan_s2> spiderwork, just use 686
[02:44] <Warbo> Athlon should use k7
[02:44] <Cdddddd> renan can you help ?
[02:44] <Renan_s2> Cdddddd, create a password for root user
[02:44] <Renan_s2> sudo passwd root
[02:44] <^majik^> I've just installed Ubuntu 6.0.6 Server on my Mini-ITX x86 server.  After the install, it'll get to grub and attempt to boot Ubuntu Server.  It gets to "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel." and then sits there.  Any ideas?  I've already tried appending "acpi=off apm=off" to the kernel line in the grub menu.
[02:44] <Renan_s2> then login with this new password
[02:44] <Cdddddd> where do i create the password ?
[02:45] <spiderwork> what i wonder is, why didnt ubuntu install with the optimized kernel in the first place?
[02:45] <Warbo> tuliogui: !info packagename gives information about packagename. Therefore the package is called gcursor
[02:45] <Renan_s2> Cdddddd, open a terminal and type 'sudo passwd root'
[02:45] <Cdddddd> cuz i've logged in with other user at first
[02:45] <Warbo> spiderwork: CD only has room for 1 kernel
[02:45] <Pikciurna> so i dont need to have modem to connect to internet? just pci adapter?
[02:45] <spiderwork> Warbo: ah! that makes sense!
[02:45] <tuliogui> Warbo: thanx!! =D
[02:45] <Renan_s2> I think that the Ubuntu CD should use SquashFS, if it doesn't already
[02:46] <Cdddddd> sudo passwd root
[02:46] <agamotto> Pikciurna:  What sort of ISP do you have?  DSL, CableModem, dial-up?
[02:46] <Cdddddd> renan
[02:46] <Pikciurna> dial-up
[02:46] <Cdddddd> doesn't work
[02:46] <Pikciurna> it uses pppoe
[02:46] <Pikciurna> adsl
[02:46] <Renan_s2> Cdddddd, in a terminal window (press ALT-f2 and type xterm)
[02:47] <Pikciurna> from where should i search info?
[02:47] <agamotto> Pikciurna:  Then the ethernet cord goes from the back of the adapter into the ADSL modem
[02:47] <Pikciurna> but i dont have adsl modem
[02:47] <Pikciurna> just pci conexant adapter
[02:47] <help-the-n00b> Do discs runnig Linux get fragmented?
[02:47] <Cdddddd> xterm
[02:47] <Pikciurna> strange thing ;/
[02:48] <Renan_s2> help-the-n00b, rarely
[02:48] <Omega11> ubuntu linux sucks windows xp is better
[02:48] <Cdddddd> renan
[02:48] <Warbo> agamotto: Managed to find a PDF of the manual. But the modem is a different colour, so it can't be right. Anybody have a manual for the right colour modem?
[02:48] <Cdddddd> it asks me for a passwd
[02:48] <help-the-n00b> How do I defrag them?
[02:48] <Renan_s2> Cdddddd, type the password of your user
[02:48] <Renan_s2> help-the-n00b, you don't need to
[02:48] <Renan_s2> when the fragmentation gets high (rarely, even on large servers) it is time to format/reinstall
[02:48] <ChristianConvey> Any recommendations for Dapper-compatible app/framework for realtime audio effects (mic -> audio effects -> speaker)?  jackd barfs when I try to run it.
[02:48] <help-the-n00b> What if it does happen?
[02:49] <Renan_s2> help-the-n00b, it will take a few YEARS before you notice fragmentation
[02:49] <SurfnKid> whats the argument to look for directories only? with ls
[02:49] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: If it happens then you must be almost out of disk space
[02:49] <spiderwork> Renan_s2: this is one of the advantages of a journaling file system, no?
[02:49] <Omega11> you don't format for high fragmentation you have to defrag
[02:49] <Renan_s2> spiderwork, yes
[02:49] <Shaezsche> ubuntu doesnt recognize my  desktop modem. It is a Diamond Supramax LE. When i lspci it says "smart link ltd Unknown device 2800 (rev02)
[02:49] <tristanmike> Renan_s2: the other day my computer said there was like 1.4 fragmentation, errored out, then restarted
[02:49] <help-the-n00b> I only have 15 GB left.
[02:49] <Warbo> help-the-n00b: (and by the way, defragging works badly when free disk space is low)
[02:50] <Renan_s2> I have a friend which managed to fragment an EXT3 file system up to a point where it was unable to use the system. Took him 3 years of constant usage to get this.
[02:50] <Iga> hi everybody, does someone use cedega cvs ??
[02:50] <tuliogui> Warbo: i didnt worked very well
[02:50] <agamotto> How do you frag ext3?
[02:50] <Pikciurna> what means conexant AccessRunner PCI ADSL WAN adapter
[02:50] <Pikciurna> ?
[02:50] <tuliogui> it loaded the theme but i couldnt chose ir
[02:50] <Renan_s2> agamotto, write lots of large files
[02:50] <tuliogui> it didnt appear on the list
[02:50] <Renan_s2> in this case, it was his backup server

[02:52] <agamotto> Shaezsche:  Internal or external?
[02:52] <Renan_s2> it is a Smart Link modem, should work normally under Linux
[02:52] <Shaezsche> its in a pci slot
[02:52] <Renan_s2> agamotto, it is PCI, therefore it is internal
[02:52] <agamotto> Hmmm, that eliminates the usual problems
[02:52] <Shaezsche> when i go to networking and autodetect it cannot find it
[02:53] <Shaezsche> its not a windomem is it?
[02:53] <technel> In my user crontab -e I added this line: * * * * * echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a" -- any idea why it doesn't beep three times every minute? I did try the command at the end on the command line and it worked...
[02:53] <help-the-n00b> How do I listen to the radio in amaroK?
[02:53] <synic> help-the-n00b: like shoutcast?
[02:53] <Iga> !cedega
[02:53] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on wine, aimed at running windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega
[02:53] <Zambezi> Is Omegall tempbanned or permbanned?
[02:53] <Amaranth> s/based on WINE/using WINE code without giving back/
[02:53] <help-the-n00b> I dunno. I guess. I wan't to listen to live feeds.
[02:54] <help-the-n00b> Audio feeds. From humans.
[02:54] <Shaezsche> it also doesnt detect i have a sempron64 2800 proc, whichis odd. at least it doesnt list it in the device manager
[02:54] <synic> help-the-n00b: how do you usually listen to them?
[02:54] <Amaranth> Zambezi: Should be be permbanned?
[02:54] <Amaranth> err, should he
[02:54] <help-the-n00b> I don't.
[02:54] <bruenig> does anybody know what that firefox update was?
[02:54] <synic> help-the-n00b: I guess it really depends on how the feed is being published
[02:54] <help-the-n00b> How do I use shout cast?
[02:55] <help-the-n00b> How do I use shoutcast?*
[02:55] <unity> wow that is such a minor correction
[02:55] <john_hamlin> i need help with grip
[02:55] <gleesond> where to I put new fonts of type ttf?
[02:55] <SurfnKid> !ls
[02:55] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[02:55] <bruenig> help-the-noob, is shoutcast that yahoo music thing
[02:55] <DBO> Zambezi, he was being an idiot on purpose, he will stay banned for a good long while at least
[02:55] <synic> help-the-n00b: if you want to listen to internet radio, apt-get install streamtuner :)
[02:55] <Iga>  does someone use cedega cvs ??
[02:56] <Warbo> Well the only troubleshooting references that manual had were things that would also affect Windows (is your line active? Are the connectors dirty? etc.) but it is obviously working on Windows, or else I wouldn't be here
[02:56] <synic> brb
[02:56] <bruenig> I think shoutcast is just flash music videos on yahoo
[02:56] <bruenig> maybe i am wrong
[02:56] <BioticPro> What is the easiest way to make a single custom audio cd mix of songs from multiple cds?
[02:56] <help-the-n00b> Ok.
[02:56] <john_hamlin> does anyone know anything about configuring grip to use the second optical drive on their computer
[02:57] <john_hamlin> i have tried many different things in the /dev/ folder
[02:57] <Warbo> BioticPro: Rip to FLAC
[02:57] <constantine-xv1> is it possible to use dscape in the ubuntu kernel without screwing things up too badly?
[02:57] <Zambezi> Amaranth, DBO Great. I hate when people flood mainchat. Okay, I hate Ubuntu sometimes too when it drives me crazy, but as you said DBO he just said it to make everybody here upset. Ubuntu is diffrent. You got to be patient when you migrate to Linux.
[02:57] <BioticPro> Warbo: can it be done w/o ripping, just copying the cda tracks to the HD and then burn them to a cd?
[02:57] <help-the-n00b> It's installing.
[02:58] <technel> The command works on the command line, why not in crontab?   * * * * * echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a"
[02:58] <help-the-n00b> How do I uninstall stuff?
[02:58] <Warbo> BioticPro: Maybe. You would have to use a few different steps though. FLAC=Free Lossless Audio Codec, so you won't lose any quality
[02:58] <francesjan> i hope there is now a move to unite multimedia codecs like the effort of uniting the widgets.  I find it annoying to match which among the installed video players can successfully play the vcd. (mplayer, vlc, totem, gxine).
[02:58] <Warbo> !synaptic > help-the-n00b
[02:58] <help-the-n00b> atp-del app? JK
[02:58] <help-the-n00b> Ok. Thanks.
[02:58] <bimberi> DBO: fyi, i've added you to the !ops factoid
[02:59] <Zambezi> help-the-n00b, sudo apt-get remove packagename
[02:59] <BioticPro> Warbo: can this be done with one program? like k3b?
[02:59] <DBO> bimberi, oh good, I can remove the highlight from ops now =P
[02:59] <Warbo> BioticPro: I think k3b might do it
[02:59] <agamotto> k3b usually does
[02:59] <Zambezi> help-the-n00b, Or you can use Synaptic, but I have use it. I'll use the console as much as possible.
[02:59] <bimberi> DBO: ah, so _that's_ how you did it :)
[02:59] <Warbo> go k3b!
[03:00] <SurfnKid> Lord-ChewY, where from
[03:00] <Cdddddd> someone who can help me PRV me
[03:00] <agamotto> The only trouble I have had with k3b is that it doesn't seem to like overwriting DVD rw discs on my machine
[03:01] <help-the-n00b> Zambezi, yEAH. mE TOO.
[03:01] <help-the-n00b> Sorry for the caps.
[03:01] <Cdddddd> how can i login as administrator
[03:01] <Cdddddd> ?
[03:01] <synic> Cdddddd: use sudo
[03:01] <Cdddddd> and ?
[03:02] <help-the-n00b> Cdddddd,  Sudo
[03:02] <help-the-n00b> sudo*
[03:02] <synic> ... what do you want to do as root?
[03:02] <agamotto> sudo is the same as loggin in as root, hence sudo command -options
[03:02] <Cdddddd> to mount drivers
[03:02] <synic> you don't mount drivers
[03:02] <synic> I assume you mean modprobe
[03:02] <Cdddddd> you can't ?
[03:02] <synic> sudo modprobe emu10k1
[03:02] <Zyfo> How do I change the size of my icons at the desktop?
[03:02] <synic> Zyfo: open nautilus - it's in the prefs there
[03:03] <Zyfo> synic: thanks.
[03:03] <Cdddddd> synic can you help in prv ?
[03:03] <synic> Cdddddd: just ask in here... then anyone that has the same question will see the answer
[03:04] <Warbo> Anybody got experience with installing ueagle-atm? I may give up on eagle-usb altogether since the former is in 2.6.16 so it is only a matter of time until I switch
[03:04] <help-the-n00b> Is there a video game channel for SHOUTcsat?
[03:05] <bruenig> does anyone know how to delete entries from the alacarte menu editor, not just uncheck them but delete. I right click on them but the delete section is grayed out and unclickable (I tried gksudo alacarte)
[03:05] <SurfnKid> Warbo, how can i list directories  with 'ls'  only
[03:05] <technel> Sorry to keep asking, but it doesn''t really make sense...This command works on the command line, but when I add it to the crontab -e file, it never triggers.   * * * * * echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a";sleep 0.1;echo -e "\a"
[03:05] <help-the-n00b> Remove I think.
[03:05] <Amaranth> bruenig: You can only delete things you created in 0.8
[03:05] <SurfnKid> Warbo, or anotherr way to do it thru CLI
[03:05] <Warbo> bruenig: The entries are all in /usr/share/applications if you want to sudo rm them...
[03:05] <agamotto> Shoutcast channel for video games... the music from the games?
[03:05] <alakra> hey
[03:05] <Cdddddd> when i try to login as root in the login windows it doesn't work because it says that i can't login with root in that window
[03:05] <help-the-n00b> agamotto, Yes.
[03:05] <Amaranth> bruenig: In 0.9 (only in edgy) you can delete anything but it doesn't really delete things, it just makes them hidden even to alacarte.
[03:05] <Cdddddd> what can i do to login as a root ?
[03:05] <agamotto> Hmmm, I don't think there is one
[03:06] <Warbo> SurfnKid: I don't really know, unless you used ls -l | grep "something"
[03:06] <help-the-n00b> sudo
[03:06] <synic> Cdddddd: the root password is random in ubuntu.  You don't need it.
[03:06] <Amaranth> Cdddddd: Don't.
[03:06] <bruenig> Warbo, thanks, I couldn't find the directory
[03:06] <help-the-n00b> Oh.
[03:06] <Amaranth> !sudo
[03:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:06] <Cdddddd> i've tried
[03:06] <SurfnKid> ok thanx
[03:06] <warlock> how do I check my exact bandwidth speed on my server?
[03:06] <help-the-n00b> agamotto, Yes. Know of one?
[03:06] <Zambezi> help-the-n00b, It a good idea to try to learn a little bit how to use the basic commands. I've been taught in that way. :-)
[03:06] <synic> Cdddddd: what exactly did you try?
[03:06] <Cdddddd> i've tried sudo and ubuntu but it doesn't work
[03:06] <Cdddddd> i've changed the root pass
[03:06] <agamotto> help-the-nOOb:  Nope, I don't mess with Shoutcast much
[03:06] <synic> Cdddddd: sudo is a command, not a username
[03:06] <alakra> i'm a noob trying to learn how to use ls, how do i get it to list per page?
[03:07] <synic> alakra: ls -lh | less
[03:07] <Warbo> alakra: ls | less ?
[03:07] <alakra> synic: thanks
[03:07] <alakra> Warbo: thanks
[03:07] <Cdddddd> and it doesn't work it says that i can't login with that user
[03:07] <alakra> ls
[03:07] <synic> Cdddddd: quit trying to log in with root.  Just use sudo.
[03:07] <help-the-n00b> Zambezi, Where did that random statement come from?
[03:07] <synic> Cdddddd: log in as your regular user and use the sudo command.
[03:08] <Cdddddd> synic
[03:08] <Warbo> OK I'm going to attempt ueagle-atm install. If I come back in here from Ubuntu then you know that Babelfish has translated the French guides adequately :)
[03:08] <Cdddddd> i want to have administrative privileges
[03:09] <synic> Cdddddd: again, use sudo.
[03:09] <mike-e> Cdddddd : open a terminal and type sudo -s
[03:09] <tripppy> does anyone know of some software for sony network walkman's?
[03:09] <mike-e> tripppy : you'd be better off looking for a web forum
[03:10] <warlock> how to unzip .tar.gz files to ex, /home/test ?
[03:11] <technel> When you enter an echo command in a cronjob, does it show up in every terminal open?
[03:11] <codecaine> tar -xf blah.tar.gz
[03:11] <Zyfo> cd /home/test | tar -xyz <files>
[03:11] <agamotto> tar xzvf file /home/test/
[03:11] <help-the-n00b> I cant find anything in streamtuner.
[03:11] <raindo1> what's the command to make a new file?  Can't remember it.
[03:11] <warlock> cheers
[03:12] <agamotto> help-the-nOOb:  Might need to check the websites
[03:12] <mike-e> help-the-n00b : do a search at www.shoutcast.com - ifyou can't find anything there, there probably isn't one
[03:12] <Pikciurna> how to know if i have HCF or HSF conexant AccessRunner PCI ADSL WAN adapter?
[03:13] <agamotto> Pikciurna:  Possible that it may be on the label on the back/bottom of the unit
[03:13] <help-the-n00b> Ok. Thanks.
[03:13] <technel> raindo1, You could do touch newfile
[03:13] <Pikciurna> no info there ;/
[03:13] <mike-e> pik: google "your exact model" HCF HSF
[03:13] <Pikciurna> i dont know my model ;/
[03:13] <Pikciurna> i just know that it is conexant AccessRunner PCI ADSL WAN adapter
[03:14] <agamotto> Check the label with the serial #
[03:14] <mike-e> look at the serial number on it, put it in google or at www.driverguide.com for the model
[03:14] <Pikciurna> and now i need to know its pci ID
[03:14] <mike-e> then google it
[03:14] <Cdddddd> can i connect on a vpn from this linux ?
[03:14] <mike-e> the l/p at driverguide.com should be driver2/all or drivers2/all

[03:15] <synic> help-the-n00b: samba is one solution

[03:15] <help-the-n00b> apt-get sambe?
[03:15] <raindo1> technel:  thanks...

[03:16] <synic> din: rc.local

[03:17] <help-the-n00b> synic, Can samba do that over the internet?
[03:17] <din> synic: a custom script i wrote. that's the place i need. thx.
[03:17] <help-the-n00b> synic, Or just on a network?
[03:18] <ryanakca> could I take a hd with ubuntu on it from a 686 and bring it to a amd64?
[03:18] <synic> help-the-n00b: how do you want to access the fs?
[03:18] <synic> ryanakca: sure
[03:18] <help-the-n00b> What do you mean?
[03:18] <synic> help-the-n00b: well... I mean you could use ftp or sftp or whatever
[03:18] <synic> there are lots of ways to access a remote fs
[03:19] <help-the-n00b> I don't know. I didn't know I could do it that way?
[03:19] <agamotto> ryanakca:  not a good idea
[03:19] <synic> agamotto: why not?  I think it would work just fine
[03:19] <synic> maybe not the other way around, though
[03:19] <ryanakca> ok, I'm getting contradictions....   "[21:15]  <synic> ryanakca: sure"  to   "[21:16]  <agamotto> ryanakca:  not a good idea"
[03:19] <help-the-n00b> What's the best way of removing something bad (hint) from my brother's computer legally without intruding?
[03:20] <ryanakca> help-the-n00b: I don't think you can
[03:20] <hyphenated> help-the-n00b: call him and ask him nicely to remove it
[03:20] <help-the-n00b> What good is acessing the filesytem then?
[03:20] <help-the-n00b> He'll get grumpy.
[03:20] <hyphenated> help-the-n00b: can you please keep your questions in this channel ubuntu-related?
[03:20] <ryanakca> do what hyphenated asked
[03:21] <swim> hmm having issues with frostwire (and limewire) when I try to run them I get this (from console): http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/posts/show/2333
[03:21] <A-0nE-Arm3d-K1d> um hi there kids
[03:21] <A-0nE-Arm3d-K1d> i'm new here
[03:21] <swim> I've installed the latest java following the ubuntu wiki
[03:21] <help-the-n00b> I want to know how to do it with Ubuntu.
[03:21] <synic> swim: got java installed?
[03:21] <synic> and in your path?
[03:21] <mike-e> anyone good with setting up hardware?
[03:22] <synic> swim: if you type "java -version
[03:22] <synic> what do you see?
[03:22] <ryanakca> help-the-n00b: you don't. phone him. ask him. and as .hyphenated said, keep it ubuntu-related...
[03:22] <Pikciurna> whish me look for configuring conexant adapter, i will be back for more info ;)
[03:22] <carthik> Hi, how can I configure and use avahi with rhythmbox?
[03:22] <swim> synic: I followed the wiki to the letter, and according to those errors it does find it in the paths
[03:22] <mike-e> my ISA sound card isn't working, any ideas?
[03:22] <swim> synic: huh thats bizarre, it returns: java version "1.4.2"
[03:22] <synic> swim: it might be finding gjc or whatever
[03:23] <synic> swim: what does echo $JAVA_HOME say?
[03:23] <help-the-n00b> I can't find Samba.
[03:24] <swim> synic: nothing, but I also had installed the latest java so it should show version 1.5x as far as I know
[03:24] <synic> swim: where did you install 1.5 ?
[03:24] <echeese> How do I tar a bunch of files?
[03:24] <swim> synic: its an ubuntu package... so whereever it wanted to
[03:24] <montag_> Hypothetical situation (that isn't so hypothetical): Say you're running Hoary. You want to upgrade to Breezy, then to Dapper. You add the "breezy" repository and select "Mark All Upgrades" in Synaptic. You install everything you can. You even make sure ubuntu-base and ubuntu-desktop are installed. You also make sure you're booting to the swap on restart, via instructions on the website. You reboot and.. you're still running Hoary. Any insight?
[03:24] <mike-e> I have an ISA sound card that isn't working, any ideas why?
[03:24] <help-the-n00b> I can't find Samba.
[03:24] <echeese> From the command line
[03:25] <help-the-n00b> Where should it be?
[03:25] <AnarchOi> i would like to know if its possible to install the last version by the HD.. the cdrom of my laptop don't work well
[03:25] <synic> swim: I'd find it and set JAVA_HOME to that place.  Maybe /usr/lib/jdk1.5* or something
[03:25] <ryanakca> mike-e: quick tip, be patient... ask every 5 minutes... ummm... open up terminal and type in:
[03:26] <ryanakca> mike-e:    cat /dev/urandom > /dev/audio                        gradually put the volume up, untill you hear something... if you don't hear anything, sorry, no clue
[03:26] <ryanakca> could I take a hd with ubuntu on it from a 686 and bring it to a amd64?
[03:27] <synic> ryanakca: yes.
[03:27] <mike-e> ryanakca : i get permission denied
[03:28] <ryanakca> mike-e: try "sudo cat /dev/urandom > /dev/audio"
[03:28] <mike-e> did
[03:28] <synic> ryanakca: that won't work.
[03:28] <mike-e> =/
[03:28] <synic> mike-e: sudo bash and then cat /dev/urandom > /dev/audio
[03:28] <ryanakca> synic: I get contradictions from people... some say yes, some say no
[03:28] <synic> ryanakca: > doesn't assume root permissions
[03:28] <synic> only the first command does
[03:28] <mike-e> ok?
[03:28] <elkbuntu> ryanakca, you might have to do a fair bit of reconfiguring in terms of graphics, sound, etc
[03:29] <ryanakca> ah
[03:29] <mike-e> it halted
[03:29] <synic> ryanakca: I think you'd be just fine moving an hdd from i686 to amd64
[03:29] <agamotto> Well, I am off to do some analog reading
[03:29] <swim> synic: I uninstalled the gjc and i can run those programs now... should that be an ok thing to do btw?
[03:29] <elkbuntu> ryanakca, but it should work mostly, in theory
[03:29] <synic> swim: yeah, gcj is a piece of crap
[03:29] <synic> swim: :)  you the same guy with a creative media player?
[03:30] <swim> synic: I was until I dropped it for the 30th time :P now I'm suffering with an ipod (can't stand it)
[03:30] <synic> swim: I got an ipod too.  I absolutely love it.
[03:30] <synic> swim: someone broke into my car and stole my creative.
[03:30] <synic> :(
[03:30] <mike-e> synic: any ideas on this?
[03:30] <ryanakca> elkbuntu: yes, I know that... I'm going to build a brand new computer from scratch... the works... graphics and sound and stuff I know... just processor... the kernel... difference between a amd64 and a 686 kernel methinks
[03:30] <greenpete> Hi! ACn anyone help me with running Ubuntu on anDell Optiplex GX1 please? Or tell me where I can find help?
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Should I expect my Frontier Labs Nex II to work with UB.. my Ipod does..
[03:31] <synic> mike-e: it didn't halt, it's just not making any sound.  What type of card is this btw?
[03:31] <elkbuntu> ryanakca, you can run 32bit kernels on 64 bit fine, most people with 64 bit machines do so, since 64bit variants are a bit wonky
[03:31] <swim> synic: aww sucky
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: what is the prob?
[03:31] <mike-e> old isa creative sound blaster
[03:31] <help-the-n00b> What is a client hostname and domain for a PC?
[03:31] <help-the-n00b> sorry.
[03:31] <ryanakca> elkbuntu: kk
[03:31] <sarra_> I need help accessing a FAT32 partition
[03:31] <ryanakca> ty
[03:31] <greenpete> I can't get Ubuntu to boot at all on that  machine
[03:32] <synic> mike-e: isa is a pain in the ass.  look into isapnpdump
[03:32] <greenpete> It gives me the error......
[03:32] <synic> mike-e: with isa, you have to know the irq and crap
[03:32] <sarra_> I've tried manually editing the fstab file to add the info for the drive
[03:32] <mike-e> is that an app?
[03:32] <mike-e> ah
[03:32] <greenpete> error on device hdc#
[03:32] <mike-e> lame
[03:32] <greenpete> less the #
[03:32] <elkbuntu> ryanakca, if you've noticed a lack of documentation or such on the subject, feel free to document your process so others may learn from it ;)
[03:32] <swim> frostwire needs to get a better splash screen, it's uglier than sin
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sarra_: You can use the diskmounter script from here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[03:32] <synic> mike-e: yes, isapnpdump might give you info on what params to use with insmod
[03:32] <sarra_> Thanks Jack_Sparrow
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[03:32] <ryanakca> elkbuntu: yep, I will :)
[03:32] <mike-e> no such app in repositories
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> sarra_: If you dont want the icons on your desktop just ask and I will walk you through it
[03:33] <mike-e> isapnptools?
[03:33] <swim> i think I'll make one
[03:33] <synic> mike-e: prolly
[03:33] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys
[03:34] <GianLuigiBuffon> I want to leave windows defitnelly... how can I erase the partition, and add it to linux partition, or better to swap if is possible????
[03:34] <synic> mike-e: also, with isa, you can sometimes set the irq with dipswitches on the card itself
[03:34] <synic> (or see what it's currently using)
[03:34] <mike-e> synic : well i installed isapnptools and did a man isapnptools and pnpdump but no go
[03:34] <sarra_> Jack_Sparrow: That's okay, I've got a widescreen and extra icons don't matter
[03:35] <mike-e> do  you think i would have to bind the sound card manually on linux?
[03:35] <greenpete> Jack_Sparrow can you help, or are you too busy?
[03:35] <Oi_PollOi> i would like to know if its possible to install the last version by the HD ?? the cdrom of my laptop don't work well
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: I will try, whats up
[03:35] <graft> hey, i got this USB irDA device, but whenever i do irattach /dev/ttyUSB0 -s my machine hangs...
[03:36] <graft> anyone have any idea why this would happen?
[03:36] <greenpete> I get the error I mentioned when it tries to boot from tyhe CD
[03:36] <SeeDe> does anyone know why my ~/bin is not in my path? when i go echo $PATH it is not there, but my (default) ~/.bash_profile has PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
[03:36] <graft> SeeDe: .bash_profile doesn't always get called
[03:36] <synic> mike-e: isapnpdump did nothing?
[03:36] <SeeDe> graft: ok then, how do i call it?
[03:36] <mike-e> nadda
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: Did you try to partition manually or let the installer do it's thing
[03:36] <graft> SeeDe: it only gets called on logins and such... put it in your .bashrc
[03:37] <synic> mike-e: if that's the case, it's not pnp... so you might have to get in the box and see what dipswitches are on
[03:37] <SeeDe> graft: or rather, set it to be called automatically when a shell is opened
[03:37] <mike-e> then what?
[03:37] <greenpete> I have tried running with a windows os on the hdd and I have formatted it to ext3 but no go
[03:37] <SeeDe> graft: hmmmmmmm but .bash_profile calls .bashrc!?
[03:37] <greenpete> I can't even run live
[03:37] <mike-e> synic : it didn't just do nothing, it said command not found
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: ok...
[03:37] <graft> SeeDe: yeah, it does... so take it out of .bash_profile and put it in .bashrc
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: So delete the ext3 you created and leave unallocated space for the auto install.
[03:38] <synic> mike-e: depends... you might have to google to find out what the switches mean, and then you can set options with insmode like : insmod somemodule irq=0x0405 dma=1 and etc
[03:38] <graft> SeeDe: .bashrc gets called every time you open a new shell... .bash_profile does not
[03:38] <synic> mike-e: dunno, it's been quite some time since I cared about an isa card :)
[03:38] <greenpete> But I don't get that far! It wont run from the CD :-(
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: Are you using the 6.06 std or the alt cd?
[03:39] <greenpete> I have it running on this machine no problem...I have installed a few times
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: HOw many drives in the system
[03:39] <greenpete> std
[03:39] <greenpete> Just one
[03:39] <greenpete> I can dsl to run on that machine
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> so why is it trying to go to hdc?
[03:39] <greenpete> with or without a drive in!
[03:39] <greenpete> Good question!
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: USB drive?
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> sata or eide?
[03:40] <greenpete> Sorry?
[03:40] <SeeDe> graft: so when does bash_profile get called then? haha i added a call to bash_profile to bashrc w/o removing reverse call. a new bash shell i just called is not responding
[03:40] <ignacio> sup
[03:40] <graft> SeeDe: no, you don't want to do that... it's probably looping
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: do you get an error or where does it hang?
[03:41] <graft> SeeDe: .bash_profile gets called on login shells; .bashrc gets called on everything else (and gets called by .bash_profile for login shells)
[03:41] <greenpete> The error code in full is BufferI/O error on device hdc, logical block 1 through 15
[03:41] <TOOSHORTLOL> DCC SEND 000000000000000000000
[03:41] <SeeDe> graft: (looping) yeah i know, it amuses me.
[03:41] <HellDragon> wtf
[03:41] <HellDragon> netsplit ?
[03:41] <nalioth> no, attack
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> no router firmware
[03:41] <bimberi> no, DCC exploit
[03:41] <HellDragon> ah
[03:41] <help-the-n00b> What's the rename? Is it mv?
[03:42] <SeeDe> graft: sorry so what is a login shell? is that like ssh as opposed to me just opening terminal?
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete:  COuld you try something for me... go into cmos and turn of usb or set it to 1.1 for the moment
[03:42] <greenpete> Jack_Sparrow... Mounting root file system is where it hangs
[03:42] <greenpete> Ok I will try that
[03:42] <help-the-n00b> ??
[03:43] <help-the-n00b> No help?
[03:43] <ignacio> mv
[03:43] <ignacio> yes
[03:44] <help-the-n00b> Ok. thnks
[03:44] <ignacio> yw
[03:44] <graft> SeeDe: yeah
[03:44] <help-the-n00b> does: mv file rename amek file rename?
[03:45] <ignacio> mv originalname newname
[03:45] <ignacio> or mv file newpath
[03:45] <SeeDe> graft: thanks a lot for your help
[03:46] <HellDragon> :(
[03:46] <greenpete> Jack_Sparrow, strangely I can't find it in the only two pages of the BIOS I get! But it will be v1.1 as it is an old unit if that helps?
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: k
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: what grub options have you tried?
[03:47] <greenpete> I haven't, I don't get far enough to to have an option
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: and the cd is ok..?
[03:48] <greenpete> I have downloaded a second just to make sure!
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: did yo do the self test on the machines that it worked on.?
[03:48] <greenpete> No] 
[03:48] <Oi_PollOi> uhm
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> I would do that..
[03:48] <greenpete> What do you mean by self test?
[03:49] <FusionXN1> Hi everyone I'm back :)
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: boot the live on a system that works and do the self test for errors
[03:49] <greenpete> Ah you mean to test the CD?
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[03:49] <FusionXN1> I'm on Ubuntu ONLY Now, I got a problem. My secondary drives wont open. How can I make them work?
[03:49] <FusionXN1> !nvidia
[03:49] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:50] <greenpete> Ok  that means shutting this machine down, will you be around for long?
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: It is possible to have a bad cd that installs on one system and not another due to differnet hardware
[03:50] <help-the-n00b> Do I need to do cd ~ to get home?
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> I'll wait
[03:51] <FusionXN1> Any ideas anyone?
[03:51] <greenpete> Ok thanks so much for your time!
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[03:51] <help-the-n00b> Help?
[03:51] <tokenbad> is there a way to use msi files in ubuntu?
[03:51] <FlitoRay> i followed the instructions on the site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows but when i try to boot the screen fills with lines and what likes like an omega symbol. then at the end it says copyright phoenix systems and then copyright dell.. i chose (hd0) to write it to because it said that was the MBR.
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: fdisk /mbr and start over or use the Super Grub Repair CD
[03:52] <FlitoRay> Jack_Sparrow, thank you. i will try that now
[03:53] <kdean06> I have gtk2-qt-engine installed, but it didn't put the configuration panel inside KControl, how do I get it there, and configure it?
[03:53] <FusionXN1>  I'm on Ubuntu ONLY Now, I got a problem. My secondary drives wont open. How can I make them work?
[03:53] <FlitoRay> do i run the fdisk and then redo the steps to write grub to the mbr or just do the fdisk.
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: http://adrian15.raulete.net/grub/tiki-file_galleries.php
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: fdisk /mbr will fix windows...
[03:54] <TokenBad> Please anyone know if can use MSI files in ubuntu?
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: your choice on how to proceed from there
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> TokenBad: yea right
[03:54] <TokenBad> Jack_Sparrow, take that as no...
[03:55] <FlitoRay> Jack_Sparrow, it says unable to open /mbr
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> TokenBad: Sarcasm does work online
[03:55] <FusionXN1> I can't access my slave drives. Can anyone help?
[03:55] <hyphenated> FlitoRay: you have to run that command after booting into windows
[03:55] <FusionXN1> !nvidia
[03:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: how did you run fdisk?
[03:55] <TokenBad> that sucks...a graphics program I want to run...they only have msi files for install files
[03:56] <kdean06> TokenBad, Very few MSI programs run in WINE, which is a way to use certain Windows programs.
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: Did you boot to a floppy or cd command prompt..
[03:56] <FlitoRay> oh i ran it in knoppix. my windows installation is screwed up. it says unmountable_boot_volume. seperate issue though i thinlk
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: no your windows are fine
[03:56] <rpedro_> TokenBad: /join #winehq , if there any way , you would need Wine
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> You need to boot a windows cd or floppy
[03:56] <FlitoRay> haha no my windows was screwed up before i rewrote the MBR
[03:57] <kdean06> FlitoRay, It always is. :-)
[03:57] <FusionXN1> No one can help me?
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> FlitoRay: THen try the super grub I linked to you
[03:57] <FlitoRay> will do
[03:57] <kdean06> FusionXN1, What format is your secondary drive?
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: what format are the drives
[03:57] <kdean06> FusionXN1, And when you say it won't open, do you mean it won't mount, or that it can't read once it's mounted?
[03:58] <TokenBad> wonder if way to convert msi to a exe
[03:58] <FusionXN1> I not sure it says: not removable cannot run pmount
[03:58] <kdean06> TokenBad, You'd still need WINE to run it. Windows programs do not run nativly on Linux.
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: What does gparted say about the drives
[03:58] <TokenBad> kdean06, I have wine
[03:59] <FusionXN1> gparted?
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> partitioning program
[03:59] <kdean06> TokenBad, Run the MSI in there. In a terminal do "wine /path/to/file"
[03:59] <rpedro_> TokenBad: http://www.winehq.com/pipermail/wine-users/2005-December/020055.html
[03:59] <livingdaylight> ok, Guys,
[03:59] <kdean06> TokenBad, SOME MSI's work in WINE, but the odds are it won't.
[03:59] <XiXaQ> I'm about to install ubuntu on a partition I've already created. Do I have to format it, or will the installation overwrite existing data?
[03:59] <rpedro_> TokenBad: a simple google search found that
[03:59] <FusionXN1> jack - whats gparted
[03:59] <livingdaylight> dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xfree86 is not working for me?
[04:00] <FusionXN1> Where do i run it
[04:00] <livingdaylight> i can barely make out what is written on my screen
[04:00] <TokenBad> rpedro_, I tried it in wine...
[04:00] <Renan_s2> livingdaylight, dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:00] <livingdaylight> this default resolution with Dapper sux
[04:00] <rpedro_> TokenBad: like it says on that page?
[04:00] <livingdaylight> thx Renan_s2
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1:  terminal gksudo gparted
[04:01] <FusionXN1> command not found
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: >
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: ?
[04:02] <FusionXN1> i put in a terminal window: gksudo gparted
[04:02] <TokenBad> rpedro_, oh that worked..thanks
[04:02] <FusionXN1> says command not found
[04:02] <rpedro_> TokenBad: great ;)
[04:03] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: I thought gparted was part of std install
[04:03] <nalioth> did i forget anyone?
[04:03] <TokenBad> will have to remember that
[04:03] <tjb891> ok, if i want to use bittorent and i have to open a port wouldn't my computer then be vulnerable becasue ubuntu dosen't have a firewall?
[04:03] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: get gparted from the repos
[04:03] <FusionXN1> k 1 mo
[04:03] <TokenBad> sucks that the program no longer works in wine
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> tjb891: Linux uses iptables, (firewall managers like firestarter or guarddog) are available
[04:04] <tjb891> but would opening a port for bittorent be dangorous
[04:04] <nalioth> tjb891: if you are worried about ports, you are worried needlessly.  Linux is not windows, and open ports in linux mean nothing
[04:04] <tjb891> why does it mean nothing?
[04:04] <ignacio> no vulneravilities like windows
[04:04] <ignacio> that I know of
[04:05] <ignacio> not on the bare OS
[04:05] <FusionXN1> BRB gotta restart
[04:05] <nalioth> tjb891: is your ubuntu a default install? are you running a web server or ftp server?
[04:05] <tjb891> yes, and no servers
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> tjb891: Ports are handled automatically, but you can use a firewall manager
[04:05] <livingdaylight> Renan_s2, its not working
[04:05] <Renan_s2> livingdaylight, what is the error message?
[04:05] <livingdaylight> grasshopper@hod:~$ sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:05] <livingdaylight> dpkg: conflicting actions --control and --remove
[04:05] <tjb891> ok so if i run bittorent it won't let a hacker in the same port
[04:05] <nalioth> livingdaylight: please don't paste
[04:05] <nalioth> tjb891: no.
[04:05] <Renan_s2> strange
[04:06] <Renan_s2> I've never seen that error
[04:06] <tjb891> so is it safe?
[04:06] <nalioth> tjb891: you'll be fine
[04:06] <montag_> Is it secret? Is it safe?
[04:06] <eyequeue> livingdaylight, dpkg-reconfigure
[04:06] <eyequeue> livingdaylight, omit the space
[04:06] <tjb891> because hacking windows is much safer and there are no linux worms, got it
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> tjb891: Yes, very safe
[04:06] <tjb891> i meant hacking winodws is easier
[04:07] <livingdaylight> eyequeue, nice one ;)
[04:07] <tonyyarusso> I'm having trouble with KPPP.  I can connect with wvdial, but KPPP says "The remote system is required to authenticate itself, but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.  (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.)"  What does this mean?
[04:07] <FusionXN1> Jack - Back
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> try again
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1:  terminal gksudo gparted
[04:08] <FusionXN1> they are NTFS
[04:08] <FusionXN1> it has an ! next to them
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: what was the original problem...  Sorry lots going on here
[04:09] <bignose> so i got vmware server running, have my freebsd host running [i moved it from an XP server]  issue is the freebsd machien can't get to the network.
[04:09] <FusionXN1> They wont open
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> are you trying to read or read write to them?
[04:09] <FusionXN1> !nvidia
[04:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:09] <FusionXN1> Jack - computer -> open
[04:09] <bignose> i did an arp -n and got this : 192.168.0.99                     (incomplete)                              eth1
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: try this script http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[04:10] <FusionXN1> Where do i put that script
[04:10] <livingdaylight> boy oh boy oh boy
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: Just read the simple three lines of instructions
[04:10] <lib8264q> hello all
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: desktop is fine, you only need it once
[04:11] <FusionXN1> Jack it opens in FF
[04:11] <FusionXN1> SO i dont know how to save it
[04:11] <livingdaylight> the screen resolution is a real issue with Dapper; just can't count on screen resolution in system/preference to do it and it doesn't automatically detect the right setting off the cuff either, only way is to plough through the xserver-xorg files
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1:  yes then file save to desktop
[04:11] <livingdaylight> hello lib8264q
[04:12] <FusionXN1> saved
[04:12] <FusionXN1> now run in terminal?
[04:12] <lib8264q> just a quick ? is there an app that makes the icons enlarge like the mac can ??????? when i cursor is placed over them
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> read the three lines of help...
[04:12] <livingdaylight> is the screen resolution gonna be sorted out by the next release of Ubuntu?
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> yes you run in term
[04:12] <help-the-n00b> How can I connect to a remote computer's FS??
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: you will need to restart X in order for the icons to appear on your desktop
[04:13] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, after you have mounted it?
[04:13] <livingdaylight> lib8264q, thats a good question, i hope someone has the answer here
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: Yes, I know the script says you dont...
[04:13] <greenpete> Hi Jack_Sparrow!
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> hey green
[04:13] <FusionXN1> Jack, should i enable to experimental write support ?
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> NO
[04:13] <lib8264q> and  no the answer is   not get a mac  lmao
[04:13] <FusionXN1> so i type n and then enter?
[04:13] <greenpete> No prob with the test and I ran the CD live on this machine with no probs
[04:13] <nalioth> FusionXN1: if you want a clean hard drive to install an OS on
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[04:14] <help-the-n00b> No. Over the internet.
[04:14] <FusionXN1> BRB
[04:14] <greenpete> But the Dell is a different story!
[04:14] <|rt|_> anyone here know how to get a wireless device that has stopped showing up to work again....it seems to be related to the wireless button on my laptop....occasionally the wireless controller gets itself into a mode where it doesn't talk to linux any more bust still functions in windows
[04:14] <greenpete> Any ideas?
[04:14] <lib8264q> someone having trouble  installing  ubuntu on a dell ?????
[04:14] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, um, "mount" is used to mount refote fs's
[04:15] <greenpete> Yes me!
[04:15] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, remote, rather
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: not at the moment other than maybe trying a different cd drive

[04:16] <geokok> hi, quick question: in windows I had ccleaner to get rid of unwanted files (tmp, cache, etc)Is there something that does the same in ubuntu?
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: my C610's didnt have any problem
[04:16] <greenpete> There is a second graphics card in it
[04:16] <greenpete> Its an odd one!
[04:16] <help-the-n00b> So how do I use mount over an internet connectio?
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: That is where I would start..
[04:16] <help-the-n00b> Connection.
[04:16] <lib8264q> if one is on board disable that ....
[04:16] <greenpete> Ok I will remove the second graphics card and try again! Thanks guys!

[04:18] <lib8264q> naw sorry it was just something that popped into my head when i seen  my friends  new mac  today ... wondered if you could get the same effect  in ubuntu ... (id buy a mac  just for that )
[04:18] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, help-the-n00b okay
[04:19] <lib8264q> lol
[04:19] <livingdaylight> lib8264q, ; )
[04:19] <dli> lib8264q, like Xgl? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xgl
[04:20] <lib8264q> but i seen a screen shot somewhere  in my travels  and  it was a linux  machine  and the icons were doing that effect ...
[04:20] <livingdaylight> lib8264q, there's gotta be a way in ubuntu even if the team have to work overtime to figure it out. can be having people leave and go for Mac for that reason
[04:20] <XiXa1> I need to update my graphics driver, but I cannot reboot the system, because I'm running live cd. Any suggestions?
[04:20] <livingdaylight> lib8264q, yea, i'm sure i've seen it aswell, i feel i have, but can't help you with it
[04:20] <|rt|> when i try to get my wireless device to come up the dmesg just says link is not ready
[04:21] <|rt|> any ideas how to trouble shoot?
[04:21] <lib8264q> that and the way the windows closed  ... oh ill have one of them  ...lol
[04:21] <greenpete> Jack_Sparrow, lib8264q... the second graphics card is gone but still no go :-(
[04:21] <help-the-n00b> How do I use mount to access a remote computer?
[04:21] <srikat_> XiXa1, AFAIK any changes done thru livecd won't remain upon nxt boot
[04:21] <lib8264q> is the a desktop machine ?
[04:21] <XiXa1> srikat, therefore I cannot reboot...
[04:22] <lib8264q> do you know which graphics chip was in it ?
[04:22] <fuzzy3chigga4> hey guys, is there a package i can remove that will make a desktop install only have the packages for a server installed?
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> greenpete: I have been up too long, I am out of ideas... Anyone else...
[04:22] <srikat_> XiXa1, is the open src driver provided (vesa?) not good enuff?
[04:22] <lib8264q> is yor install crashing all the time ??????????
[04:23] <XiXa1> srikat_: I have no 3d graphics.
[04:23] <greenpete> Ok thanks again for your time. I may sleep on it my self!
[04:23] <FusionXN1> I got a BIG program
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: what
[04:23] <FusionXN1> I installed nvidia drivers now i get X Failed to start GUI disabled
[04:23] <FusionXN1> im on the live cd right now
[04:23] <TokenBad> why is it..every weather script I get for xchat I can't get to run
[04:23] <fuzzy3chigga4> lib8264q: i started out with a desktop but i dont need graphics any more...unless you werent talking to me
[04:24] <FusionXN1> How do i fix that
[04:24] <srikat_> XiXa1, oh...may be Jack_Sparrow knows the answer
[04:24] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, did you get my /msg?
[04:24] <help-the-n00b> Yes.
[04:24] <help-the-n00b> Did you get mine?
[04:24] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, no
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> srikathe would be 4th in line at this moment and I am lookng at dinner getting cold.
[04:25] <srikat_> FusionXN1, didn't you back up xorg.conf?
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> srikat:
[04:25] <Zambezi> I have screen, but I don't think I use the right combination. Cause the session logs out and I have to restart the session and that's annoying.
[04:25] <FusionXN1> no i installed it as on the webpage... it said MD5 error recheck? i said yes it said reboot X i did and now it dont work
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: I thought you were trying to mont your ntfs drives, when did you install the NV drivers
[04:25] <help-the-n00b> I must specify the filesystem type. What is a PC's type?
[04:25] <Tonren> hey guys, I'm trying to bind a key combo to a script I wrote, but it's not working.  I have a zenity dialogue running from it, and it's just not running when I hit the bound keys.
[04:26] <FusionXN1> Jack - just before
[04:26] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, -t fstypehere, i would guess
[04:26] <bthornton> I've done a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on my machine and just now realized that the OSS drivers have been loaded by default for my soundcard.  I thought OSS is being depreciated?  Any pointers on how I can switch the drivers to ALSA (nForce2 sound)?
[04:26] <matsur> Hi, I'd like to manipulate volume via xbindkeys. I've been poking around but it seems that writing an ugly hack around amixer is the only way to allow you to increase Master volume by a set increment (say 5%). Is this true?
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: that really compounds the problem...
[04:26] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, nfs?
[04:26] <help-the-n00b> What is the type though?
[04:26] <FusionXN1> someone told me to put this on the black screen: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: SO now you need to look at your xorg.conf
[04:27] <FusionXN1> I need to disable the nvidia drivers
[04:27] <FusionXN1> dam things dont work?!
[04:27] <FusionXN1> !nvidia
[04:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:27] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, -t nfs
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: You should be able to hit E at the grub menu
[04:27] <srikat_> FusionXN1, may be try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" or open up xorg.conf and change "nvidia" to "nv"?
[04:27] <chill_guy> Hi all
[04:28] <IcemanV9> is there a way to show which dir have more than 1G by using du command?? i don't want to see any dir less than 1G.
[04:28] <chill_guy> guys on unbuntu, how to I connect wireless? :s
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: I run the Nvidia drivers with no problems just followed the wiki..
[04:28] <help-the-n00b> So " sudo mount fsname -t nfs paths/and/stuff"?
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> srikatagreed
[04:28] <FusionXN1> K i get a black screen wi login and its just like a big terminal do i type it there?
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> srikat_: agreed
[04:28] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, the remote machine needs to see something like "ext3" but the nfs daemon on the remote end translates all to type nfs before interacting with incoming calls
[04:28] <chill_guy> can i connect wireless on my ubuntu
[04:28] <chill_guy> ?
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> FusionXN1: yes
[04:29] <chill_guy> how FusionXN1?
[04:29] <johnny_> can someone help me with the installation process?
[04:29] <FusionXN1> brb
[04:29] <chill_guy> yes johnny
[04:29] <lufis> Have you guys heard? Linus Torvalds has breast cancer!
[04:29] <IcemanV9> chill_guy: yes, you can
[04:29] <mathieu_> johnny_: what is the problem
[04:29] <chill_guy> tell me your question johanny
[04:29] <chill_guy> So fusionXN1 how do i connect wireless?
[04:29] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, to use what you said as example: sudo mount remotemachineaddress:/paths/and/stuff /your/local/mountpoint
[04:30] <IcemanV9> !wireless > chill_guy
[04:30] <prabhu> !wireless
[04:30] <johnny_> i get an error message to check /var/log/syslog   and it gives back  Fatal Eroor Instertin apm (/lib/modules2.6.12-9-386/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.ko): no such device

[04:31] <mathieu_> chill_guy: it depends on your hardware
[04:31] <chill_guy> what link Iceman
[04:31] <eyequeue> help-the-n00b, correction: sudo mount -t nfs remotemachineaddress:/paths/and/stuff /your/local/mountpoint (ut's just that -t nfs has always been autosensed for me)
[04:31] <mathieu_> chill_guy: do you know if your card is detected ?
[04:31] <johnny_> does anyone know how to fix it?
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless > chill_guy

[04:51] <CanadaGradeEh> Well, are you sure it's actually at 82? It may just be a bug in your temperature reader
[04:51] <Daver23x>  Flannel - Slave / Primary
[04:51] <Warbo> klees: With something like that then yes
[04:51] <srikat> Artan1s, PMed
[04:51] <QMario> IcemanV9, "run top"?
[04:51] <Flannel> Daver23x: so, it's hdb, does GParted not see a hdb drive?
[04:51] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, that's what the BIOS says.
[04:51] <Flannel> !tell FusionXN1 about ntgs
[04:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about ntgs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:51] <Flannel> !tell FusionXN1 about ntfs
[04:51] <IcemanV9> QMario: in the terminal and type top
[04:51] <Daver23x> hrmm
[04:51] <CanadaGradeEh> Have you checked..
[04:51] <klees> how does it get the signal?
[04:51] <eyequeue> !duse > FusionXN1
[04:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about duse  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:51] <CanadaGradeEh> to see if your heatsink is on properly?
[04:51] <Daver23x> Flannel I will try GParted in terminal
[04:51] <CanadaGradeEh> That is usually a common problem with high temperatures
[04:51] <klees> through the internet/cable connection?
[04:52] <FusionXN1> flan - cheers ill read that
[04:52] <eyequeue> !fuse > FusionXN1
[04:52] <Artan1s> srikat: Didnt get it, try again
[04:52] <CanadaGradeEh> Also, do you know what kind of processor you have?
[04:52] <Warbo> klees: A TV capture device is needed, either a PCI one like my analog one, or some modern digital onesare USB
[04:52] <Flannel> FusionXN1: ubotu sent you some stuff that's not completely stable, it might lose all the data on the partition, if you write with it.
[04:52] <QMario> IcemanV9, it is not on this computer.
[04:52] <gbdm> !wmp54gs
[04:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about wmp54gs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:52] <Flannel> Daver23x: GParted is a GUI, do you need a terminal program?
[04:52] <mathieu_> chill_guy: no problem
[04:52] <Daver23x> no
[04:52] <srikat> mmm..for some reason my PMs aren't reaching you Artan1s
[04:52] <FusionXN1> Well i want to convert to FAT32 so i can be safe
[04:52] <Warbo> klees: Internet can be used for video podcasts and stuff, which is not quite TV, but similar
[04:52] <Daver23x> I need a gui program :)
[04:52] <klees> Warbo: so just the video card wont cut it huh?
[04:52] <Artan1s> srikat: Can you read mine
[04:52] <QMario> !GUI
[04:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about GUI - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:52] <Flannel> Daver23x: good, GParted is for you.  You might need to install it first though
[04:53] <CanadaGradeEh> Graphical User Interface
[04:53] <CanadaGradeEh> GUI
[04:53] <srikat> yes Artan1s, let's join a chan by your nick so both of us can talk there
[04:53] <Daver23x> Indeed I do... thanks
[04:53] <eyequeue> srikat, it was happening to me earlier too, someone's not reachine me
[04:53] <FusionXN1> Is there anyway to convert it?
[04:53] <Warbo> klees: "video card" is sometimes a graphics card, and sometimes a TV card, depending on the context. I assume youare talking about a graphics card, then the answer is no
[04:53] <Flannel> You can't send queries if you're not registered.  srikat and eyequeue
[04:53] <CanadaGradeEh> QMario, how long hve you had the processor that is overheating, and how long has it been overheating?
[04:53] <Flannel> registered and identified, that is.
[04:53] <CanadaGradeEh> It's kind of hard to judge your predicament with such little knowledge, but I'll try to help lol
[04:53] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, less than 2 weeks.
[04:53] <eyequeue> Flannel, i'm regged
[04:54] <klees> Warbo: I have a Radeon 9800 Pro
[04:54] <CanadaGradeEh> It's been hot like that since purchase?
[04:54] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, no.
[04:54] <Flannel> FusionXN1: not really, formats by definition are destructive
[04:54] <eyequeue> Flannel, coukld be that he was not though, thanks for the explanation
[04:54] <Warbo> klees: What I mean is that the term "video card" has two meanings. A graphics card cannot usually pick up TV signals
[04:54] <Daver23x> we have liftoff (space music plays) 160gb of space.......... (for 80cnd at best buy lol)
[04:54] <Flannel> FusionXN1: do you absolutely need to write to it?
[04:54] <FusionXN1> flan so I CANT convert?
[04:54] <FusionXN1> Yes it has my work on it
[04:54] <CanadaGradeEh> Are you running Intel?
[04:55] <fuoco> anyone gets aac files to work in totem/gstreamer ?
[04:55] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh,  the computer freezes before OS boots.
[04:55] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, yes.
[04:55] <dribble> anybody on quicken 2006 premier w/crossover office?
[04:55] <CanadaGradeEh> Ah, I see. Do you overclock?
[04:55] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, Pentium 4 LGA775.
[04:55] <Flannel> FusionXN1: right, but do you need to write? or is reading enough?
[04:55] <klees> ic
[04:55] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, no.
[04:55] <CanadaGradeEh> The first thing I'm going to suggset is to make suer that the heatsink fan is properly on
[04:55] <Warbo> FusionXN1: You want to convert it to make writing safe, but converting it is unsafe as well, so either way you are screwed
[04:55] <gbdm> Anyone have a guide to get a Linksys WMP54GS to work under Ubuntu with WEP enabled?
[04:55] <klees> Warbo: i was curious because i just bought a 20.1 in widescreen monitor
[04:55] <klees> and was thinking on making it a one stop shop
[04:55] <CanadaGradeEh> Also, make sure your video card is working properly. See that IT'S fan is working properly and that all devices are connect properly
[04:55] <QMario> Nalioth, what did he do?
[04:56] <Flannel> FusionXN1: you can convert by copying everything off, formatting, and then copying everything back on.  That's how one has to change partition types
[04:56] <FusionXN1> So your telling me i just came onto ubuntu and cant use slave drives with ubuntu?
[04:56] <Daver23x> Flannel -- how come it only sees 149.05 GB
[04:56] <supernix>  is it true that you can only use broadband to share a internet connection in other words can you effectively share a 56k connection ?
[04:56] <Flannel> Daver23x: how big is the drive?
[04:56] <Daver23x> 160
[04:56] <Warbo> klees: eBay may help you. Do a bit of research before you buy anything though, since my PCTV card needs a lot of tweaking to stop the signal being black and white
[04:56] <FusionXN1> That means moving over 200gb
[04:56] <FusionXN1> ill have to rig up my xbox then
[04:56] <mikim> hey.. my cedega is not getting any internet access anyone knows how to fix this?
[04:56] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, why would a video card cause the computer to freeze?
[04:56] <denver1> i have Mepis 6 installed and went into Mpeis Utilities to install the nvidia driver and have rebooted and glxgears doesnt work and i get this message http://www.itwarehouse.com.au/warehouse/list.htm
[04:56] <Flannel> Daver23x: because that's 160GB, the partitioner is in GiB (1024 instead of 1000)
[04:56] <klees> what do u connect to the card?
[04:57] <denver1> glxgears
[04:57] <denver1> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[04:57] <denver1> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[04:57] <eyequeue> supernix, if you mean NAT, that is not restricted to broadband, if you have sufficient patience
[04:57] <Daver23x> ahh
[04:57] <BioticPro> what program to use to rip cda files on the HD to wav files?
[04:57] <lib8264q> share a 56k connection  .... have you used a 56k connection  much ?????
[04:57] <FusionXN1> How do i know if im using nvidia drivers
[04:57] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, I have a low-profile video card: XGI Volari V3 128MB DDR
[04:57] <Daver23x> and for um movies and music and stuff what format is best ext3?
[04:57] <mikim> anyone?
[04:57] <Daver23x> or 2
[04:57] <eyequeue> lib8264q, i've used much slower, just not recently (and would no longer have the patience, heh)
[04:57] <supernix> so eyequeue it is just a matter of having extreme patients to share a 56k connection
[04:57] <QMario> !Media
[04:57] <Warbo> FusionXN1: "lsmod | grep nvidia" and "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia"
[04:57] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[04:57] <CanadaGradeEh> It still is going to give you problems if it's not being cooled or running properly
[04:58] <supernix> actually I have a 5mbps cable connection
[04:58] <CanadaGradeEh> So, as I said, make sure Nothing is loose or not functioning as it should
[04:58] <FusionXN1> command not found
[04:58] <Warbo> BioticPro: Use FLAC or something else lossless. WAV is huge
[04:58] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, have you ever heard of that video card?
[04:58] <Tonren> my firefox download dialogue is broken :(
[04:58] <eyequeue> supernix, yeah, the technical side is still the same, the human side is the limitation, heh
[04:58] <CanadaGradeEh> I've seen so many heat problems stem from a simple loose heatsink
[04:58] <Daver23x> !disk label
[04:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about disk label - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:58] <lib8264q> hey iv forgotten what 9600 was like ..... ;) lmao
[04:58] <CanadaGradeEh> Nope, I haven't actually
[04:58] <klees> Warbo: what do u connect to ur tv card?
[04:58] <mikim> anyone has cedega that can help me with project entropia?
[04:58] <BioticPro> Warbo: ok, what program will convert cda to flach (cda files are already on the HD)
[04:58] <Warbo> klees: Composite for camcorder and regular terrestrial aerial for TV
[04:59] <supernix> I konw that was what I thought I kept recalling back in the day when 14400 baud was high speed
[04:59] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, also, 3 of my heatsink/fan pegs are broken. Might that contribute to the problem?
[04:59] <CanadaGradeEh> That seems about the problem lol
[04:59] <Warbo> BioticPro: The only thing I know that can do anything is bchunk, which can convert them to ISO-9660 images (".iso")
[04:59] <klees> Warbo: do u have to connect it to a TV?
[04:59] <QMario> CanadaGradeEh, that is the problem?
[04:59] <QMario> How?
[04:59] <lib8264q> can just imagine sharing a 56k connection .. come on come on ... go mnake the tea  take the dog for a walk first page maby have loaded by then  lol
[04:59] <Warbo> klees: If I want TV signals then yes
[05:00] <Warbo> klees: Oh, you mean the box? No
[05:00] <supernix> so there would be lots of latency I take it
[05:00] <Warbo> klees: The applications like Zpping or TVTime display it on the monitor
[05:00] <klees> i meant the tv card in ur comp
[05:00] <mikim> no one can help me?
[05:00] <Warbo> *Zapping
[05:00] <AllAround> can someone who could help me with ubuntu installation msg me?
[05:00] <Flannel> AllAround: what's the problem?
[05:01] <Warbo> klees: The TV card is just input. The only thing I have that would connect to a TV is the TV-out on my graphics card
[05:01] <AllAround> i can't get it to install from a cd so i was wondering if there is a way to do it from you hard drive
[05:01] <BioticPro> Warbo: is there not a way to simply burn the cda files to a playable cd with k3b or roast etc..?
[05:01] <mike-e> anyone want to help me get an isa sound card to work?
[05:01] <godtvisken> How do I clean up all of the old versions of programs and the downloaded *.deb files left behind?
[05:01] <Warbo> BioticPro: Maybe bchunk's output iso can be burned to a playable CD? I am not overly familiar with CD audio
[05:01] <Warbo> sudo apt-get clean
[05:01] <gbdm> Anyone have a guide to get a Linksys WMP54GS to work under Ubuntu with WEP enabled?
[05:02] <Flannel> godtvisken: the old versions you'll need to remove them via apt, but yeah, that command for the deb caches
[05:02] <Warbo> Old packages are kept in /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:02] <godtvisken> thanks for the info guys
[05:03] <FusionXN1> I installed the nvidia drivers and I got an X SERVER error. How do i configure them to make them work with 7900gt
[05:04] <wastrel> pilot-link is segfaulting on me. also gnome pilot
[05:04] <godtvisken> Flannel: well, when i use the ubuntu update does it remove the old versions? or say when i apt-get dist-upgrade and apt-get a newer version of a program
[05:04] <mikim> my cedega can not get any internet access need help msg me!
[05:04] <godtvisken> Flannel: are the old binaries left behind?
[05:04] <Daver23x> What is better ext2 or ext3
[05:05] <FusionXN1> How do i configure the nvidia drivers for a 7900gt?
[05:05] <Frankenstein> hi, im having trouble with my system hanging on "Starting hotplug subsystem"
[05:05] <Flannel> godtvisken: it depends.  Usually there are half a dozen or so older versions still around, but it does depend on the packages themselves.  If, for instance, you look in Synaptic, you'll see a "local and obsolete" packages, those are leftovers (or packages you've installed that aren't in the repositories)
[05:05] <GuitarHero11> Im trying to install ati drivers to play wolfenstein.  I have the game installed and i think i got fglrx installed(i recompiled and everything) but it runs really choppy.  This is my fglrxinfo:
[05:06] <GuitarHero11> display: :0.0  screen: 0
[05:06] <GuitarHero11> OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.

[05:06] <GuitarHero11> OpenGL version string: 2.0.5879 (8.26.18)
[05:06] <GuitarHero11> i think its the generic rendering string
[05:06] <Flannel> mikim: you might have better luck at a cegeda channel
[05:06] <GuitarHero11> im not running it with cegeda
[05:06] <GuitarHero11> wolfenstein is linux native
[05:06] <mikim> Flannel, yeah.. no one answers there.. =(
[05:06] <nalioth> GuitarHero11: please don't paste

[05:08] <Flannel> prabhu: er, you have problems with getting it from the repositories?
[05:09] <Flannel> prabhu: sorry, that sounded wrong.  What problems you having?
[05:09] <Frankenstein> so no one knows?
[05:10] <danielllllllllll> the installer freeze on the partition? Is it common?
[05:10] <Flannel> Frankenstein: people who know aren't necessarily here or active.  You might try googling while you wait
[05:10] <dsl514> hi one q/a how do i share a ppp0 connection with 1 crossover cable?
[05:10] <Frankenstein> Flannel: did and done that... it just says dapper will fix it... BUT i would use dapper if i could

[05:10] <Frankenstein> i need to be able to at least boot into breezy than upgrade
[05:11] <danielllllllllll> someone?
[05:12] <bimberi> !edgy

[05:12] <fuoco> !schedule
[05:12] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more. Edgy schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[05:12] <Flannel> mikim: doesn't transgaming provide support for cegeda?
[05:13] <danielllllllllll> someone can give a help?
[05:13] <Jenkens> any ideas?
[05:13] <Daver23x> so....
[05:13] <rende> whats best torrent client in your guys opinion?
[05:13] <mikim> Flannel, yeah they do.. but they are hard to get in contact with... do you got any ideas?
[05:13] <rende> I dont like azureus much cause its java
[05:13] <Jenkens> rende: yet, it's the best one ;)
[05:14] <Daver23x> how would I go about accessing hdb from the GUI
[05:14] <rende> Jenkens: true :)
[05:14] <rende> Jenkens: I still like the lightweight functionality of something like transmission
[05:14] <Flannel> mikim: nope.  I don't use cegeda, and I don't actually know of anyone here that does.
[05:14] <gbdm> Anyone have a guide to get a Linksys WMP54GS to work under Ubuntu with WEP enabled?
[05:14] <rende> Jenkens: wasn't sure if there was something like that out there I was missing
[05:14] <Flannel> Daver23x: from GParted?  just select the harddrive, from the dropdown menu
[05:14] <mikim> Flannel, what r u using? xwine?
[05:15] <TokenBad> whats command for mounting an ext3 partition?
[05:15] <BioticPro> How do I convert cda file on my HD to flac?
[05:15] <Daver23x> Flannel: I did that i mean from gnome.. to save files and to open with the file browser etc
[05:15] <rende> hi fusionxn1
[05:16] <Flannel> Daver23x: ah, Well, you won't actually open "hdb" you'll open a partition on it, hdb1 hdb5, etc.  And, you'll have to open them from whereever they happen to be mounted
[05:16] <FusionXN1> This may sound stupid but how do i select soemthing in the terminal (i want to select 1680x1050)
[05:16] <vy2wu> quit
[05:16] <FusionXN1> Hi rends
[05:16] <dsl514> Hi i connected two pcs with one crossover cable 1-3 2-6 ftp/http/ssh how do i share a ext usr modem 33.6k
[05:17] <rende> FusionXN1: you want to change screen resolutions?
[05:17] <gbdm> !wmp54gs
[05:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about wmp54gs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:17] <FusionXN1> im reconfiguring my xorg i dont know how to select the resolution *pressing enter goes onto the next step)
[05:17] <Frankenstein> try tab
[05:17] <FusionXN1> nope goes onto OK
[05:17] <Frankenstein> ohh
[05:17] <Flannel> Daver23x: I believe you can mount partitions at system > administration > disks (or something like that), by selecting the partition, and clicking "enable"
[05:17] <Frankenstein> space bar
[05:18] <FusionXN1> good man
[05:18] <FusionXN1> thanks
[05:18] <Frankenstein> np
[05:18] <khoda`> when someone says cat [file]  what does that mean?
[05:18] <Daver23x> yeah that screen freezes or takes forever... established that already
[05:18] <Flannel> khoda`: cat prints the contents of a file
[05:18] <FusionXN1> BRB :)
[05:18] <Frankenstein> type man cat and find ouy
[05:18] <Frankenstein> out*
[05:18] <khoda`> Flannel: how do i do that
[05:18] <dscherba> TokenBad: 'mount -t ext3 /dev/somethingoranother /some/location'
[05:18] <wastrel> khoda`:  that's a command line program you type the name of the command at the terminal
[05:19] <Flannel> khoda`: er, what? type "cat [file] " where [file is the path to the file
[05:19] <khoda`> Flannel: k thanks
[05:19] <FusionXN1> YIPEE nvidia drivers now workign :)
[05:19] <FusionXN1> got my native resolution back
[05:20] <Daver23x> TokenBad: what is the /some/location part?
[05:20] <khoda`> Hey someone said to check if there are any "internal addresses" in my /etc/resolv.conf file. how do i know?
[05:20] <FusionXN1> Anyone recommend me a good DVD player for linux?
[05:20] <khoda`> my internet is running very slow, thats why
[05:20] <Frankenstein> type: vi /etc/resolv.conf
[05:20] <FusionXN1> I get 10kbs more on ubuntu then windows
[05:20] <jackinthebox6386> is there a way to put a linksys wireless-b adapter in monitor mode?
[05:20] <khoda`> Frankenstein: but how do i know if there are internal addresses, what does tha tmean
[05:21] <FusionXN1> BRB
[05:21] <wastrel> khoda`:  that means ip addresses on your local area network.
[05:21] <rende> FusionXN1: I like mplayer, but that plays everything
[05:21] <khoda`> wastrel: they're all 68.x.x.x.x
[05:21] <rende> FusionXN1: Not sure of a decent dedicated DVD player if thats what you want
[05:22] <Frankenstein> how can i diable hotplug during install?! i have scsii
[05:22] <dscherba> Daver23x: you can mount to anywhere in your filesystem, so replace /some/location with where you want the thing to end up... like /mnt/home2
[05:22] <warlock> Is there a file to unzip a .tar.gz file -WITHOUT- overwriting files in the map im unzipping it in?
[05:22] <wastrel> khoda`:  i assume those are your ISP's nameservers
[05:22] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1: I did some research and found that with some tuning, XMMS is a great media player is library support and even an equalizer
[05:22] <khoda`> dammit
[05:22] <TokenBad> I got it thanks folks
[05:22] <FusionXN1> thanks rends
[05:23] <khoda`> Does anyone know why it takes me awhile to connect to things. once i'm connected it's fine, but it takes awhile to connect???
[05:23] <FusionXN1> thanks jackin
[05:23] <Daver23x> How do you create the mount point (says It doesnt exsist) do you just make a dir?
[05:23] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:NP
[05:23] <wastrel> Daver23x:  yes
[05:23] <dribble> alright, so anybody who was listening -- quicken 2004 deluxe seems to work fine w/crossover.  however, 2006 does not.
[05:23] <dr_willis> Quicken - Ewwww..
[05:23] <dr_willis> :)
[05:23] <warlock> Is there a file to unzip a .tar.gz file -WITHOUT- overwriting files in the map im unzipping it in?
[05:23] <dr_willis> I still get junk mail from that company - 10 yrs later.
[05:24] <dr_willis> warlock,  in the map?
[05:24] <khoda`> Does anyone know why it takes me awhile to connect to things. once i'm connected it's fine, but it takes awhile to connect? is it a firewall issue? everything runs fine in windows
[05:24] <dr_willis> warlock,  check the tar man pages perhaps? or uncompress the file to a seperate dir. then copy the stuff over.
[05:24] <warlock> dr_willis, yeah, well, my .tar.gz contains a few maps, I dont want to overwrite anything
[05:24] <warlock> dr_willis
[05:24] <FusionXN1> I know linux doesn't need defraging (w00t) but if i move 140gb of files to ubuntu and format the other drive and put them back will it effect anything?
[05:24] <warlock> erm, you're right, im so stupid at sometimes.
[05:24] <dli> khoda`, dns errors?
[05:24] <dr_willis> FusionXN1,  shouldent.
[05:25] <warlock> thanks, Im just having an slow day.
[05:25] <khoda`> dli: how can i check?
[05:25] <FusionXN1> dr_ cheers mate
[05:25] <dr_willis> FusionXN1,  but it depends on what files. :)
[05:25] <FusionXN1> im on ubuntu only now
[05:25] <kintaro0e> hi guys..whats the use of system.map and initrd /boot directory. when i try doing a manual kernel compilation..i doesnt need to use those to files..any advice?
[05:25] <Flannel> FusionXN1: Do you intend to continue to use these other drives with Windows?
[05:25] <dr_willis> FusionXN1,  and other details that may affect ya.
[05:25] <FusionXN1> dr_ I cant tell you that ;)
[05:25] <dli> khoda`, can you test using IP instead of hostname?
[05:25] <Renan_s2> is there any way to resize a partition without formatting it?
[05:25] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:Im sorry, came half way into your conversation. I thought u were refering to an audio player(for wwhich i reccomend XMMS), regardless, i reccomend VLC.  Works great
[05:25] <Daver23x> last question I want to add that to the Gnome places menu  where do you do that?
[05:25] <Flannel> FusionXN1: format them to ext3 or something, not fat
[05:25] <warlock> dr_willis, how do i unzip the file help.tar.gz to /home/cs/ ?
[05:25] <AllAround> Can someone help me correctly burn Ubuntu to a CD?
[05:25] <FusionXN1> thanks jackin!
[05:25] <khoda`> dli: what's googles ip
[05:25] <warlock> if the file is in /home/cs/1
[05:25] <khoda`> :)
[05:25] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:NP
[05:25] <Renan_s2> format to ReiserFS
[05:26] <pepsi> dli, 72.14.207.99 is one of several
[05:26] <FusionXN1> flannel... i  **MAY** dont flame me - put windows on a 2nd partition does that work with windows?
[05:26] <warlock> AllAround, a tip, dont use dr-rw discs, only CD-R. :)
[05:26] <dr_willis> warlock,  for a start quit using the phrase "UNZIP" you use the tar command,., NOT 'unzip'
[05:26] <Renan_s2> FusionXN1, yes
[05:26] <dli> khoda`, or 66.249.93.104
[05:26] <dr_willis> warlock,  or ya could use 'mc' and view the contents of the archive and copy stuff out of it.
[05:26] <khoda`> dli: that as the problem, the IP is fast, host name slow. how do i fix it?
[05:26] <FusionXN1> As i want a partition that is friendly with all OS
[05:26] <warlock> hmm
[05:26] <warlock> ok
[05:26] <FusionXN1> linux + xp / vista
[05:26] <Renan_s2> FusionXN1, then the only option is FAT32
[05:26] <Flannel> FusionXN1: I don't care if you use windows or not.  ext3 won't work with windows, fat will.  So, if you're planning on installing windows, you'll have to use fat
[05:26] <prabhu> is it possible to install firefox in kubuntu?
[05:26] <FusionXN1> 14mins and files will be moved
[05:26] <Renan_s2> there is a Ext3 driver for Windows, but I've never got it working
[05:26] <dli> khoda`, check your /etc/resolv.conf , make sure you are using the right ones
[05:26] <Flannel> prabhu: yes.  What issues you having?
[05:27] <dr_willis> I have windowsxp set where i  can read/write to ext3 just fine.
[05:27] <Renan_s2> it always tell me that the partition is invalid
[05:27] <khoda`> dli: how do i know if they're right?
[05:27] <prabhu> it will not start
[05:27] <Flannel> Renan_s2: no, they're worse than the NTFS drivers for linux ;)
[05:27] <dr_willis> but thgere are potential issues to be carefull with.
[05:27] <khoda`> dli: and how do i fix them if they're not?
[05:27] <orbin> Daver23x: i think you need to mount the partition in /media
[05:27] <dli> khoda`, your ISP should tell you the right ones
[05:27] <dr_willis> Ive had no real issues using them
[05:27] <Daver23x> I did ;)
[05:27] <Daver23x> still not there perhaps a reboot
[05:27] <FusionXN1> SO FAT32 then
[05:27] <AllAround> Can someone help me correctly burn Ubuntu to a CD?
[05:27] <prabhu> i extracted it to /usr/local/bin
[05:27] <FusionXN1> will it be as fast / operate the same they are 200gig drives
[05:27] <fuoco> can ubuntu automatically install packages from source just like it does with binary packages ? (or what does deb-src mean ?)
[05:27] <orbin> Daver23x: someone also said you need the userid option or something enabled
[05:27] <khoda`> dli: whats the command to change it
[05:27] <Daver23x> my usb drive is there though
[05:28] <prabhu> created a menu entry but the application will not start
[05:28] <Flannel> AllAround: cap the burn speed at 4x, and write the iso.  The CD does NOT have an iso file on it, it has the contents of the iso.  There's a difference.
[05:28] <dli> khoda`, vi /etc/resolv.conf
[05:28] <Daver23x> hrmm could it be edit menus
[05:28] <dr_willis> fuoco,  check out the apt-get faq/docs - it can do so.. but i dont recall how. (type !apt-get) and read the bots urls
[05:28] <Flannel> fuoco: deb-src downloads the source for packages
[05:28] <dli> khoda`, if you are using dhcp, it's tricky then
[05:28] <khoda`> dli: lets see what happens :D
[05:28] <fuoco> Flannel: doesn't install ?
[05:28] <jackinthebox6386> dr_willis- ext3 works great, use it for 3 different OS's
[05:28] <prabhu> ??
[05:28] <fuoco> Flannel: compile/install i mean ?
[05:29] <dr_willis> jackinthebox6386,  i use the one at http://www.fs-driver.org/ to get xp to use it. :P for my mp3 storage needs.
[05:29] <NewUbuntuUser> hi
[05:29] <fuoco> !apt-get
[05:29] <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)
[05:29] <NewUbuntuUser> im trying to install xgl on my new ubuntu system
[05:29] <NewUbuntuUser> i followed the instructions on the wiki
[05:29] <NewUbuntuUser> but i get errors
[05:29] <Flannel> NewUbuntuUser: #ubuntu-xgl is the place for help, and links, and stuff.
[05:29] <FusionXN1> no apt-get for skype?
[05:29] <dr_willis> NewUbuntuUser,  i would have to advise to not mess with xgl at this time.
[05:29] <jackinthebox6386> dr_willis: thats exactly where i went, works great, no probs
[05:29] <NewUbuntuUser> thank you
[05:29] <Flannel> !tell FusionXN1 about skype
[05:30] <dr_willis> jackinthebox6386,  just got to watch out what you delete/edit/change. :P
[05:30] <FusionXN1> So if i format them with FAT32 everything will be the same and work on windows AND ubuntu?
[05:30] <FusionXN1> xp + vista
[05:30] <jackinthebox6386> dr_willis: you mean in linux?
[05:30] <dr_willis> jackinthebox6386,  from whithin windows you could trash the linux system and make it.. well.. gone. :P dont delete /boot for example by mistake.
[05:30] <Flannel> FusionXN1: right, except you won't have permissions, and under certain circumstances its slwoer
[05:31] <dr_willis> jackinthebox6386,  best to have /home on its own partition that xp can access.
[05:31] <FusionXN1> permissions? does that matter?
[05:31] <NewUbuntuUser> would any of you be able to tell me how to fix this?
[05:31] <NewUbuntuUser> Xgl: error while loading shared libraries: libXfont.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:31] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1: what are you trying to do?
[05:31] <warlock> dr_willis, im new to ubuntu, how do I force to remove a dir? "rm -d -f dir" ?
[05:31] <NewUbuntuUser> the library is installed but it wont work for some reason
[05:31] <Flannel> NewUbuntuUser: #ubuntu-xgl for XGL related questions please
[05:31] <khoda`> dli: how do i get out of this vi thing
[05:31] <NewUbuntuUser> it seems like a general question
[05:31] <Flannel> khoda`: :q
[05:31] <dr_willis> warlock,  it may bw worth while to read a few bash/linux beginner guides.. i normall  use rm -rf
[05:31] <khoda`> Flannel: not workin
[05:32] <elg> can anyone tell me why /proc/bus/usb isn't mounte din dapper?
[05:32] <FusionXN1> jackin i gotta format 2 drives to work with ubuntu (READ AND WRITE SAFE!) and xp + vista
[05:32] <khoda`> Flannel: just hit 'q'
[05:32] <Flannel> khoda`: no.  :q
[05:32] <khoda`> Flannel: how do i save changes
[05:32] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1: i tried FAT 32 and ext 3
[05:32] <FusionXN1> jackin - and?
[05:32] <Flannel> khoda`: :w
[05:32] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:ext3 is best, you cant write to FAT32 in linux, no matter what u change
[05:33] <Renan_s2> jackinthebox6386, you can
[05:33] <Daver23x> /etc/init.d/dbus-1 restart
[05:33] <Flannel> jackinthebox6386: er, what?
[05:33] <Renan_s2> I am using FAT32 RIGHT NOW :)
[05:33] <FusionXN1> SO what should i do?
[05:33] <dli> khoda`, http://tnerual.eriogerg.free.fr/vimqrc.html
[05:33] <dr_willis> jackinthebox6386,  Huh.. ya mean to NTFS? you can easially write to fat32
[05:33] <warlock> cheers dr_willis
[05:33] <Flannel> FusionXN1: fat32 is your only option.  It's far from optimal, but it works
[05:33] <FusionXN1> flannel - the 2 drives are for storage
[05:33] <Renan_s2> Anybody here knows how to set a multimedia keyboard to work with amaroK? I tried setting "global hotkeys" but it doesn't work.
[05:34] <Renan_s2> On Ubuntu 5.10 it worked, however.
[05:34] <Ksilebo> Hello! I'm having problems with pdflush taking up insane amounts of load.
[05:34] <[Ex0r] > Anyone here have a list of tested and working hardware for ubuntu? I am trying to install ubuntu server and it's telling my it can't find network card drivers for my network card
[05:34] <Daver23x> sweeeet
[05:34] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : there's hardware compat list on the wiki
[05:34] <johnny_> i installed dapper but when it boots up it just sits there
[05:34] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:34] <[Ex0r] > thank you a bunch
[05:34] <johnny_> it says uncompressing linux... ok, booting the kernel
[05:34] <johnny_> and does nothing
[05:35] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : I can't imagine it's exhaustive, but it's a start
[05:35] <johnny_> can anyone help with this?
[05:35] <[Ex0r] > Flannel- doh, it says there is only one belkin
[05:35] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : really, ubuntu shouldn't have too different compatability with the whole of linux (per kernel versions)
[05:35] <wastrel> palm sync seems to be broken in dapper
[05:36] <[Ex0r] > I know the card is good, it's next to brand new
[05:36] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : so, google might find better ones.  You can find little niche sites that specialize in one hardware item (network cards, for instance)
[05:36] <[Ex0r] > at first it said it didnt find any, than I plugged in the nic cable and it found it but said it had no drivers, but I could load them from floppy
[05:36] <Flannel> [Ex0r] : just google 'linux [card model] 
[05:36] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:my bad, took a look at my notes and saw that i just had permission errors, took the easy route and reformatted to ext3(have had no probs and it works great on all my OS's)(NOOB mistake:-p)
[05:36] <Crazy6> hey guys, I just added a new HD to my system, which shows up as sdb ; I try to mount the partition on it, /dev/sdb1 , but it says it is already mounted or busy ..... when I do "mount
[05:36] <Crazy6> " is it not listed there
[05:36] <zzy> ok i have a problem when i click on my computer i can see my second hard drive buy i cant click on it but when i click home folder media folder the two hard drives are there how do i move them to where my computer is
[05:37] <dr_willis> crazy6 try fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[05:37] <FusionXN1> So what should i do everyone FAT32 or ext3 MUST WORK with XP/VISTA and ubuntu (read and write safely)
[05:37] <[Ex0r] > says to use the realtek drivers
[05:37] <Flannel> FusionXN1: how many times have we told you?  FAT32 works on Linux and Windows
[05:37] <dr_willis> No idea on vista - but ext3 can work with XP. with the right tool.
[05:37] <Flannel> FusionXN1: ext3 doesnt
[05:37] <FusionXN1> I got an X-FI so im using onboard till drivers out
[05:37] <FusionXN1> Well jackin said ext3
[05:38] <Flannel> FusionXN1: windows drivers for ext3 are worse than linux drivers for NTFS
[05:38] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:not sure, kno that FAT32 and ext3 work on XP and ubuntu, i havent delved into Vista yet
[05:38] <dr_willis> Best bet - set up a samba file server. :) and be done with it.!
[05:38] <Ksilebo> pdflush taking up insane amounts of load, anyone see this ever?
[05:38] <Crazy6> dr_willis: ok... the partition is listed there
[05:38] <zzy> ok i have a problem when i click on my computer i can see my second hard drive but i cant click on it but when i click home folder media folder the two hard drives are there how do i move them to where my computer is
[05:39] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:i only use my ext3 drive for music on both and i have no probs(though i had to install an ext3 driver on XP)
[05:39] <FusionXN1> Oh, mines for storage
[05:39] <[Ex0r] > Flannel- http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php?product=329&sort=8&cat=128&page=1
[05:39] <Gog123> man
[05:39] <Gog123> new computers are cheap
[05:39] <Flannel> zzy: the problem is you never really browse harddrives on their own, they get mounted places, and you browse them from there.
[05:39] <[Ex0r] > that site says that the realtek drivers work. Aren't the realtek drivers already installed ?
[05:39] <FusionXN1> music etc ;) so should i do ext3?
[05:39] <khoda`> in windows, how do i find what DNS servers im using
[05:39] <Gog123> a new dell with lcd monitor is only $499 for a decent system
[05:39] <^majik^> what packages should I install to get gcc, make, etc going?
[05:39] <Ksilebo> Its becoming a huge problem as I can't use Ubuntu as a fileserver if pdflush running on my array makes the array unuseable.
[05:39] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:then i would def us ext3
[05:40] <Krank> how is ext3 compared to ntfs, presuming you could choose one of the other?
[05:40] <[Ex0r] > ^majik^- build-essential
[05:40] <FusionXN1> flan - you agree?
[05:40] <Flannel> FusionXN1: No.  ext3 will NOT WORK with windows.
[05:40] <FusionXN1> Jackin says you need driver ?!?
[05:40] <Crazy6> dr_willis: its listed there, /dev/sdb1  ; anything special I should be looking for?
[05:40] <warlock> dr_willis, Is there an another way to extract a .tar.gz without overwriting the files?
[05:40] <^majik^> [Ex0r] : I think I'll write it down this time - thanks
[05:40] <Flannel> FusionXN1: and Ive said it three times, the windows ext3 driver is worse than the linux NTFS driver
[05:40] <dr_willis> http://www.fs-driver.org/  - allows windoes XP to read/write to EXT2 and EXT3 File systems...
[05:40] <dr_willis> and ive had NO problems withit.
[05:40] <FusionXN1> flannel fair enough
[05:40] <dr_willis> so to each their own.
[05:41] <FusionXN1> fat32 it is as long as its safe 100% for both windows and ubuntu to read and write
[05:41] <dr_willis> theres several ext3 'things' out for windows also.
[05:41] <Crazy6> dr_willis: when I do a mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/temp it says /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /mnt/temp busy
[05:41] <Flannel> dr_willis: you're lucky.  We also don't recommend automatix, yet an occassional person doesn't have problems with it ;)
[05:41] <FusionXN1> so gpartion can i use?
[05:41] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:be sure to watch your permissions if you do FAT32
[05:41] <Flannel> FusionXN1: yep, Gparted can even partition ntfs
[05:41] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:thats where i got messed up
[05:42] <zzy> ok i have two pictures on my desktop but when i go to copy them but i cant paste them on my hd cause the paste button i cant click on it
[05:42] <zzy> the second hd is mounted but i cant browse them
[05:42] <Krank> I've still not installed dapper yet, got a xp/vista dual boot going and I don't want to wreak in installs with vista's new boot loader
[05:42] <Flannel> FusionXN1: however, keep your eye out, NTFS on linux is really really close to stability (theres even a rumor it might be in edgy).  So, you'll be able to switch back to a FS with permissions and stuff sooner or later
[05:43] <FusionXN1> to a FS?
[05:43] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:if you still want to try ext3 later, this is the link for the ext3 on XP: http://www.fs-driver.org/download/Ext2IFS_1_10b.exe
[05:43] <FusionXN1> ty
[05:43] <Flannel> FusionXN1: to NTFS, which has permissions.
[05:43] <FusionXN1> Well its only for storage
[05:43] <notregistered> hey i installed ubuntu at my local computer store and when i got home the hard drive was fried..... had it updated fully ready to use.... sucks... at least it was only a 20 gig
[05:43] <notregistered> drive
[05:44] <notregistered> possibly the ride home screw the drive or what?
[05:44] <zzy> ok i have two pictures on my desktop but when i go to copy them but i cant paste them on my hd cause the paste button i cant click on it
[05:44] <dr_willis> notregistered,  bumps and so forth can be bad.. and it was how old> :P    or it may have a loose cable.. check them yet?
[05:44] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:do you ever plan to add music while in Ubuntu?
[05:44] <dr_willis> zzy,  try the shell/terminal then.
[05:44] <FusionXN1> flan whats this "edgy"
[05:45] <FusionXN1> jackin - yes its my ONLY Os now
[05:45] <eyequeue> !edgy
[05:45] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[05:45] <FusionXN1> i just formatted
[05:45] <zzy> dr_wills why cant i copy them thaazt way
[05:45] <Crazy6> dr_willis: ?
[05:45] <Krank> I had and old Mac G3 MT go bad just moving it up two stories from the basement to upstairs
[05:45] <notregistered> yeah... tried that... tried to boot about 4 times... the keyboard went bad also... guess it was just bad luck
[05:45] <dr_willis> zzy,  no clue.
[05:45] <zzy> how do i copy them throw terminal
[05:45] <khoda`> Hey - something's wrong with my internet. hostname goes slow, but when i go to IP it goes fast. How do I fix it? I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the dns servers are right
[05:45] <FusionXN1> flan - i hope it is in edgy whens it due?
[05:45] <Crazy6> Anyone have any idea why I cannot mount /dev/sdb1 ? it says it is already mounted (doesnt look like it is, though) , or my mountpoint is busy
[05:45] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:ok, what did you just format to?
[05:45] <FusionXN1> i havent yet im waiting
[05:45] <dr_willis> zzy,  could be somthing is confused in gnome. use the cp and ls command and see if the files are really there.
[05:45] <notregistered> ill try it again tomorrow on another drive.... im having to use windows right now :(
[05:45] <jackinthebox6386> o ok
[05:46] <dr_willis> Crazy6,  Huh??
[05:46] <FusionXN1> still not sure
[05:46] <zzy> the files are only on my desktop
[05:46] <Crazy6> dr_willis: sorry to bug you, I thought you might know whats up when you started to help me there

[05:48] <Johndoe> Any ideas?
[05:48] <fuoco> does ubuntu ever clean the archive of downloaded packages ?
[05:48] <notregistered> sounds like a bad drive
[05:48] <Renan_s2> fuoco, I think that yes, but you can always use 'sudo apt-get clean'
[05:48] <notregistered> or bad cables
[05:48] <Johndoe> Bad drive?
[05:49] <pk0nink> or maybe a bad cd burn

[05:53] <Renan_s2> [Ex0r] , eBay?
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > except for ebay
[05:53] <Renan_s2> a local computer store should have one
[05:54] <acad> use ext3, it has a driver for microsoft windows if you need it and will work with any linux distribution. not to mention it is a journeling file system which basically means you won't have to 'scandisk' it
[05:54] <FusionXN1> SO what do i run? sudo g...
[05:54] <[Ex0r] > Looking to get a used one preferably
[05:54] <jackinthebox6386> FusionXN1:to reformat?

[05:56] <bimberi> !fuse
[05:56] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[05:56] <Frankenstein> khoda`: i have the same problem, use different name servers
[05:56] <dr_willis> lasthunter914,  some googling will show ya some answeres. you really dont want to write to a ntfs partition at this time.
[05:56] <bimberi> lasthunter914: ^^^^^
[05:56] <khoda`> Frankenstein: those name servers work on windows, though
[05:56] <khoda`> Frankenstein: and i have dhcp enabled, with those dns servers

[06:00] <NewUbuntuUser> i have an ati graphics card that supports miltiple monitors but my second monitor only shows a clone of the primary monitor how can i get it to show an extention or second desktop?
[06:00] <eyequeue> Tennessee, http://docs.python.org/lib/module-datetime.html
[06:00] <Renan_s2> linux2, no, SCIM is for Japanese input
[06:00] <Renan_s2> I don't know about GNOME :/
[06:00] <valehru> FusionXN1, probably not....but I use ext3 so I don't care if they screw up...It will teach them to be using shoddy microsoft filesystems
[06:01] <linux2> Renan_s2, humm then what is the app running in gnome for volume control hotkeys
[06:01] <Renan_s2> linux2, I don't know! i do'nt use GNOME
[06:01] <Renan_s2> *don't
[06:02] <linux2> Renan_s2, you use kde?
[06:02] <Renan_s2> linux2, yes
[06:02] <wastrel> linux2:  it's part of the acpi subsystem, that catches the keycodes from the volume keys and calls some scripts iirc
[06:04] <linux2> Renan_s2, do your volume controls work and have a graphical display when you change the volume
[06:04] <prwlr> how can i update the pkg repositories of a non-connected ubuntu box? thanks
[06:04] <Renan_s2> linux2, yes
[06:04] <linux2> wastrel, ok, so how would i get a similar thing to work in kde
[06:04] <Renan_s2> linux2, go to the KDE control panel, access "Regional and accessibility" (I don't know the exact name, but it has the icon of 2 flags) and then configure it
[06:04] <FusionXN1> Ok Jackin....

[06:04] <Renan_s2> select the model for your keyboard

[06:05] <carthik> Can someone help me find out why Avahi wont work over a wirelessly connected computer?
[06:05] <NewUbuntuUser> i have an ati graphics card that supports miltiple monitors but my second monitor only shows a clone of the primary monitor how can i get it to show an extention or second desktop?
[06:05] <Renan_s2> *model , not modem
[06:05] <doughboy> I am curious about something. I downloaded and installed realbasic on my pc then tried to create a desktop launcher. Well the launcher does not work. The launcher throws an error stating that there is no such directory. Whats up with that?
[06:05] <FusionXN1> How do i rename a harddrive?!?!
[06:06] <carthik> NewUbuntuUser, the keyword is "xinerama" - search for how to setup xorg in the xinerama mode right now you seem to have a dual head setup
[06:06] <lasthunter914> THANKS EVERYONE IT WORKED sorry about my attitude i was getting frustrated
[06:06] <lasthunter914> =] 
[06:06] <carthik> NewUbuntuUser, actaully, now you dont have even dual head.
[06:06] <FusionXN1> How do I mount a harddrive?!
[06:06] <NewUbuntuUser> thank you
[06:07] <carthik> FunnyLookinHat, what sort of hard drive is it, what is the type?
[06:07] <eyequeue> you mount filesystems, see "man mount"
[06:07] <khoda`> Hey - something's wrong with my internet. hostname goes slow, but when i go to IP it goes fast. How do I fix it? I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the dns servers are right
[06:07] <linux2> ok now second thing
[06:07] <linux2> what kernel does ubuntu use?
[06:07] <bimberi> !mount
[06:07] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[06:07] <carthik> linux2, a linux kernel
[06:07] <linux2> the number?
[06:07] <linux2> cause i have debian
[06:07] <Renan_s2> kernel 2.6.15
[06:07] <carthik> linux2, depends. you can find what you use using uname -a
[06:07] <Renan_s2> 2.6.15-26-686
[06:08] <linux2> im having a huge issue with acpi and the touchpad mouse
[06:08] <linux2> what happens is that the touchpad mouse starts moving all around and clicking on stuff randomly
[06:08] <linux2> and there is error output in dmesg
[06:08] <linux2> ubuntu does not do this for some reason
[06:08] <linux2> i find this very strange
[06:08] <KeithWeisshar> do you have the package list for the ubuntu dvd
[06:09] <khoda`> Hey - something's wrong with my internet. hostname goes slow, but when i go to IP it goes fast. How do I fix it? I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the dns servers are right
[06:10] <linux2> Renan_s2, i see no option for two flags?
[06:10] <linux2> or anything here that has to do with volume controls
[06:10] <chris86wm> is there a way to disable the menu scrolling in gnome?
[06:10] <FusionXN1> It wont enable my drive!!!
[06:10] <Renan_s2> linux2, is there an icon with the drawing of the 2 flags?
[06:10] <Renan_s2> I think it is named "regional and accessibility" (my KDE is in Portuguese so I can't really help)
[06:11] <FusionXN1> Can anyone help it wont enable my drive?!

[06:27] <Warbo> How do I put "Add/Remove" back on my menu? It isn't in Alacarte, and "Revert" doesn't seem to do it
[06:27] <chris86wm> anyone know how to make the multimedia keys work on an inspiron 6000? i have messed around with keyboard shortcuts but they dont seem to take affect.
[06:27] <Amaranth> Warbo: Did you uninstall it?
[06:27] <Warbo> !keyboard
[06:27] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[06:28] <prwlr> what file does "apt-get update" update?
[06:28] <Amaranth> Warbo: Or are you running as a non-sudo user?
[06:28] <Warbo> Amaranth: I don't think so, but I removed it from the menu ages ago
[06:28] <wastrel> Warbo:  add/remove is synaptic package manager
[06:28] <Warbo> wastrel: "Advanced" is
[06:28] <wastrel> what's add/remove then?  heh i never use menus
[06:28] <Warbo> prwlr: /var/lib/apt/lists I think
[06:28] <Amaranth> Warbo: oh, hrm
[06:29] <Warbo> wastrel: It's nice and easy to use
[06:29] <Warbo> wastrel: (Synaptic is fine, but I am writing a Wiki page and would prefer to advocate Add/Remove, but I need to see it to describe it's use)
[06:29] <wastrel> Warbo:  it seems to be gnome-app-install
[06:30] <Amaranth> Warbo: rm ~/.local/share/applications/gnome-app-install.desktop'
[06:30] <Amaranth> Warbo: no ' though
[06:30] <Warbo> wastrel: But it was a special menu entry, since it is not in the menu. I will just check that I haven't removed the program...
[06:30] <prwlr> Warbo, thanks
[06:31] <FusionXN1> I need help after formatting a drive linux wont enable it
[06:31] <FusionXN1> ubuntu*
[06:31] <sarra_> I need some help compiling wine
[06:32] <wheels3572> nevyn, Is it ok to remove vxworks?
[06:33] <nevyn> wheels3572: seeing as you're most likely currently routing packets through it I wouldn't advise removing it no
[06:33] <iamchris> Any idea why I get the error message Kernel Panic- Net syncing attempt to kill init?
[06:33] <Warbo> Oops, looks like I did remove it sorry :) (I remeber using it recently, but that must have been on someone else's system)
[06:33] <wheels3572> What I dont understand is how I got it and if my router has anything to do with it?>
[06:34] <wastrel> what's vxworks?
[06:34] <Senesence> I'm trying clean up my synaptic repositories, so I could get everything I need. Any recommendations?
[06:34] <nevyn> wheels3572: it's the OS in your router
[06:35] <chris86wm> hey Warbo, thanks for the help man
[06:35] <prwlr> Warbo, how do i update my repository list in a non-connected box? thanks
[06:35] <NewUbuntuUser> does anyone know how i can install flash player 9 on a 64bit system?
[06:36] <wheels3572> nevyn, Ok ty yes I just seen that.  It's already using port 21 so what do I do in this case?
[06:36] <Cynical> as far as I knew flash won't work on 64bit systems no
[06:36] <nevyn> wheels3572: what do you want to achieve?
[06:36] <Senesence> NewUbuntuUser: I don't think there is a way to install fp8 properly on linux, let alone 9
[06:36] <Warbo> prwlr: Hmm. Maybe by copy the list files across then NOT running apt-get update, or maybe by creating a local APT repository, although it is probably beyond me
[06:36] <justin_> does anyone have the problem where the easy ubuntu installation of the ati driver makes things worse?
[06:36] <Daver23x> I used pmount to mount a usb drive now i cant umount it?
[06:36] <Cynical> lol
[06:36] <Warbo> NewUbuntuUser: Should work with lib32
[06:37] <NewUbuntuUser> i dont have lib32
[06:37] <cerberus> Hey guys, I can't seem to be able to find the web root for apache anyone know where it is with the default synaptic install?
[06:37] <Warbo> NewUbuntuUser: Don't ask me though, since I don't use 54bit, but WINE should install and run, therefore Flash Player 9 should as well
[06:37] <wheels3572> nevyn, to be able to connect to the ftp server from my laptop or from outside of my network and if port 21 is used do i just change the port?
[06:37] <nevyn> Warbo: I didn't think it did because you need the mozilla/firefox/whatever to also be 32bit
[06:37] <[Ex0r] > cerberus- /var/www/html
[06:37] <Warbo> 64bit is apparentyl even better than 54 bit as well :)
[06:38] <NewUbuntuUser> well flash player 9 is a binary (.bin) from the flash website which comes up to with an error incorrect architecture
[06:38] <NewUbuntuUser> and wont run
[06:38] <nevyn> wheels3572: why does your gateway listen externally on port 21?
[06:38] <Lurkan> hi, i need change the editor for default, i have mc and need vi
[06:38] <Warbo> nevyn: It is usually possible to run 32bit apps on 64bit using lib32
[06:38] <nevyn> Lurkan: sudo update-alternatives --config default-editor
[06:38] <Warbo> NewUbuntuUser: This is a Linux version?
[06:38] <nevyn> Warbo: apps yes.
[06:38] <Senesence> What exactly does a "Backports" repository supply??
[06:38] <wheels3572> nevyn, I am not sure honestly
[06:38] <nevyn> Warbo: but flash player plugs in to the web browser and needs abi compatibility with it.
[06:38] <Warbo> nevyn: And Mozilla/FF aren't apps?
[06:38] <cerberus> [Ex0r] , that directory doesn't exist, in /var/www I have apache2-default and a link to php
[06:39] <nevyn> Warbo: they are.
[06:39] <NewUbuntuUser> yes
[06:39] <Warbo> nevyn: Exactly
[06:39] <NewUbuntuUser> it's the linux version
[06:39] <[Ex0r] > ah, you've got apache2 :\
[06:39] <nevyn> Warbo: I was stating an additional possible dependancy.. not saying it can't be done.
[06:39] <cerberus> I do
[06:39] <[Ex0r] > can't help you there than
[06:39] <Warbo> NewUbuntuUser: Wow, I need to get this then! Anyway, try and follow guides for Flash 7 if you can
[06:39] <cerberus> Cheers anyway, anyone else know?
[06:39] <Warbo> NewUbuntuUser: (since Flash 9 guides probably don't exist yet)
[06:40] <AllAround> How do i write Ubuntu to a CD in .iso form when it's not a .iso file?
[06:40] <Senesence> What exactly does the "Backports" repository supply in synaptic??
[06:40] <NewUbuntuUser> back ports :D
[06:41] <Warbo> Senesence: Backports takes cool stuff from the newer Ubuntu versions and makes them work on the supported ones (only security fixes are put into Ubuntu releases once they are out, so cool features aren't added unless you use backports)
[06:41] <Madpilot> AllAround, if it's not in ISO, something is wrong with whatever you downloaded. It should be a single giant ISO file
[06:41] <iamchris> does anyone have an  idea why I get the error message Kernel Panic- Net syncing attempt to kill init?
[06:42] <nevyn> iamchris: something bad happened
[06:42] <AllAround> Hmmm, I got it straight from the site
[06:42] <nevyn> actually I can get more specific
[06:42] <Senesence> Ok, so what would be the best way to set up repositories in synaptic so that I can have access to everything?
[06:42] <nevyn> something really bad happened
[06:42] <Warbo> AllAround: The only other files are hashes (to check if it is corrupted) and bittorrent files
[06:42] <FusionXN1> I just formatted a drive and it wont open it says: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
[06:42] <Madpilot> AllAround, what's the exact filename you downloaded?
[06:42] <iamchris> Any idea why its happening?
[06:43] <nevyn> iamchris: bad hardware would be my first gut feeling
[06:43] <AllAround> It's not just one file
[06:43] <nevyn> or a really dodgy driver
[06:43] <FusionXN1> * can anyone help
[06:43] <iamchris> What hardware would be your first guess?
[06:44] <Madpilot> AllAround, it should be
[06:44] <Warbo> Yay I have Add/Remove back :)
[06:44] <Warbo> AllAround: .bin and .cue maybe?
[06:44] <Madpilot> AllAround, you in the US?
[06:45] <FusionXN1> ANyone know why i get that error?
[06:45] <nevyn> iamchris: memory
[06:45] <AllAround> Yes
[06:45] <Warbo> FusionXN1: Were you giving it a type?
[06:45] <AllAround> There are 20 files in all
[06:45] <nevyn> iamchris: then motherboard then cpu disk controller.. but really I'm just stabbing in the dark you havn't given me enough info to work with
[06:45] <FusionXN1> Warbo i formatted and have tried EXT3 and FAT32 it wont open
[06:45] <sarra_> Still having problems compiling Wine for AMD64. =\
[06:45] <iamchris> Thats all I really have to work with
[06:46] <Madpilot> AllAround, you need one file, and it's massive: http://mirror.cs.umn.edu/ubuntu-releases/6.06/ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso
[06:46] <iamchris> I load the live CD, and then after a short while, that message comes up
[06:46] <Warbo> FusionXN1: Well "sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1" and "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" should work
[06:47] <AllAround> Ok, thx Madpilot
[06:47] <FusionXN1> WARBO Now i get no error message its "dead"
[06:47] <Lurkan> nevyn:  thanks
[06:47] <jesspher> does anybody know any app in linux that can open wpl files
[06:47] <jesspher> please help
[06:47] <jesspher> i need to open wpl files
[06:47] <Warbo> FusionXN1: mount doesn't say anything when it has worked
[06:47] <Lurkan> wpl?
[06:47] <jesspher> ye
[06:47] <jesspher> s
[06:47] <FusionXN1> no just vfat
[06:47] <Warbo> jesspher: What are they made in?
[06:47] <jesspher> its like a streaming wmv file
[06:47] <FusionXN1> and the date
[06:47] <Warbo> MPlayer maybe?
[06:48] <FusionXN1> its working now...
[06:48] <jesspher> but whenever i click mplayer nothing appears
[06:48] <FusionXN1> How do i rename it
[06:48] <jesspher> is it suppose to not appea
[06:48] <jesspher> r
[06:48] <Warbo> FusionXN1: I'm not about drive labels
[06:48] <FusionXN1> Warbo?
[06:48] <Warbo> jesspher: GMplayer shows a control panel as well as the video
[06:49] <jesspher> gmplayer?
[06:49] <Warbo> FusionXN1: Drives can have labels, which is their name. If you mean changing it from /mnt then just unmount it with sudo umount /mnt then mount it somewhere else
[06:49] <azrael0> Hey, does anyone know how to edit an individual partition of a drive image?
[06:49] <Warbo> jesspher: Comes with MPlayer
[06:49] <jesspher> nothing appears when i click mplayer
[06:50] <FusionXN1> Warbo its "weird" it says its a windows NTFS yet gparted says it FAT32
[06:50] <jesspher> is that suppose to happen?
[06:50] <FusionXN1> somethings wrong it wont mount again
[06:50] <Warbo> jesspher: MPlayer doesn't show a control panel, so if the file doesn't work MPlayer will just quit, therefore you willsee nothing. GMPlayer shows a control panel
[06:50] <jesspher> how can i laung gmplayer
[06:51] <Warbo> FusionXN1: partition types and their actual filesystems can often be different
[06:51] <jesspher> how can i launch gmplayer
[06:51] <Warbo> jesspher: Erm.. By typing gmplater?
[06:51] <Warbo> oops
[06:51] <FusionXN1> Warbo but it wont remount again now it says inaccessable
[06:51] <Warbo> gmplyer
[06:51] <Warbo> AA!
[06:51] <Warbo> You know what I mean :)
[06:51] <bimberi> lol
[06:51] <Warbo> FusionXN1: You used sudo umount?
[06:52] <jesspher> how can i launch gmplayer please help
[06:52] <FusionXN1> can i use "fdisk"
[06:52] <Warbo> jesspher: ^
[06:52] <jesspher> what do i do to launch gmplayer
[06:52] <Warbo> jesspher: Look up!
[06:52] <Warbo> !cli > jesspher
[06:52] <bimberi> jesspher: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal,   then type 'gmplayer' in there
[06:52] <carthik> jesspher, have a little patience, and read what others have to say in reply
[06:53] <pppoe_dude> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:53] <pppoe_dude> oops
[06:53] <pppoe_dude> sorry
[06:53] <Warbo> pppoe_dude: I think you were being offtopic then
[06:53] <jesspher> nothing appears when i type gmplayer
[06:54] <Warbo> jesspher: Is the terminal full of stuff?
[06:54] <carthik> jesspher, what happens, exactly?
[06:54] <pppoe_dude> k... so if i ping say... test.no-ip.org, and the ip changes, will the ping adapt to that change or does 'ping' stor the IP address once it resolves it/?
[06:54] <jesspher> it says some scripts
[06:54] <cerberus> I'm running apache2 and going to http://the-den/ brings up my index.html as it should but going to http://localhost/ brings up a page saying "It works", going to http://localhost/index.html works fine. Any ideas why?
[06:54] <jesspher> like:
[06:54] <jesspher> You will not be able to use your remote control.
[06:54] <jesspher> [skin]  file ( /usr/share/mplayer/Skin/default/skin ) not found.

[06:56] <jesspher> to get mplayer
[06:56] <Rodya> can anyone help?
[06:56] <carthik> !universe
[06:56] <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
[06:56] <Warbo> jesspher: See that "!info" I just did? That tells you info about a pakcge, which you can install in Synaptic or something
[06:56] <falconer> doesn't seem to work bimberi thanks :)
[06:56] <carthik> jesspher, that was meant for you...
[06:57] <Ophiocus> does re installing GRUB after windows install affect fstab? my fstab is not mounting properlly the drives as i had them
[06:57] <Warbo> Ophiocus: Shouldn't do
[06:57] <jesspher> i know but what do i type on the repository to add mplayer
[06:57] <brodes18> I can't get my Veiwsonic vx2025Wm widescreen monitor to display the proper resolution of 1680X1050. The graphics card is set right as well as direct rendering ive entered the Horizontal and vertical refresh into the xorg file but it maxes out at 1280X1024
[06:57] <Warbo> jesspher: "on the repository"? Do you want the repository or the package?
[06:57] <bimberi> falconer: sry, i knew of its existence, not usage
[06:58] <Rodya> does anyone know what to do about the error message?
[06:58] <jesspher> the repository
[06:58] <anonymeeee> hi everyone
[06:58] <Warbo> !easysource > jesspher
[06:58] <jesspher> easysource?
[06:58] <Warbo> jesspher: That will easily add the right ones
[06:58] <carthik> brodes18, run $sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and when you get to the resolutions screen, choose the ones you want by highlightin them and pressing the space bar
[06:58] <Warbo> jesspher: You should have got a message
[06:58] <anonymeeee> anyone know of a easy cups reference to walk me through setting up my print server?
[06:58] <bimberi> Rodya: could be a bad cd?
[06:59] <falconer> I'm a liar.
[06:59] <Rodya> i dont think sos bimberi
[06:59] <sarra_> Okay, I'm reading this and completely lost now: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit

[06:59] <carthik> anonymeeee, search the wiki for cups
[06:59] <Lost_it> I messed up everything.  I get to the login screen, it accepts my password and takes me back to the login screen.  Any ideas....
[06:59] <brodes18> thanks carthik, I did that too and it didnt help. Also the resolution is listed in xorg.conf
[06:59] <sarra_> I don't get the part under "Run configure, build and install with:"
[06:59] <Warbo> !compile
[06:59] <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!)
[06:59] <Lost_it> I was testing a script for making custom UbuntuCD's
[06:59] <Rodya> can i install the extra packages from the internet after i install the base system?
[06:59] <carthik> brodes, maybe you just need to go to system->prefs->screen res. and choose the right res?
[07:00] <Proximity> Hello
[07:00] <Rodya> and get ubuntu-desktop?
[07:00] <Warbo> Rodya: yep
[07:00] <sarra_> Thanks, Warbo, but htat's not any hel[
[07:00] <sarra_> help
[07:00] <Warbo> sarra_: Oh, OK
[07:00] <brodes18> carthik did that too
[07:00] <Rodya> is there a help file for this Warbo
[07:00] <sarra_> I'm trying ot install Wine on Amd64, and there's nothing but sourse
[07:00] <Warbo> Rodya: Installing stuff? Use aptitude
[07:00] <Lost_it> sarra_: did that script work for you
[07:00] <carthik> brodes18, i'm out of ideas, sorry
[07:00] <sarra_> And I'm getting compile errors

[07:01] <brodes18> carthik thanks anyway
[07:01] <Lost_it> Np
[07:01] <Warbo> "sudo aptitude"
[07:01] <Proximity> Can someone help me out with installing some drivers?... sort of a n00b heh :\
[07:01] <Rodya> i can use that without xserver running?
[07:01] <Lost_it> JAck here
[07:01] <Lost_it> glad it worked
[07:01] <Warbo> Rodya: Yup, it's console based
[07:01] <marcus__> Proximity: which drivers?
[07:01] <Lost_it> testing latest script I lost the abitlity to login..
[07:01] <Proximity> im trying to install some nvidia drivers
[07:01] <Rodya> so what do i do
[07:01] <marcus__> !nvidia
[07:01] <Proximity> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_nforce_amd64_1.0-0310.html
[07:01] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:01] <Rodya> just sudo aptitude and it will do it for me?
[07:02] <Warbo> Rodya: just to let you know, "u" will update lists, / will search, + will mark for installation and "g" will "go"
[07:02] <damnhil> have you tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157560 to compile a kernel?
[07:02] <Proximity> tried following that but do not understand the process
[07:02] <Lost_it> will work on it tomorrow
[07:02] <Warbo> Rodya: Hopefully, if your connection is up
[07:02] <marcus__> Proximity: well i cant help more than that sorry
[07:02] <Rodya> is this like installing debians netiso?
[07:02] <Proximity> Can you tell me well guide me through it
[07:03] <Warbo> Rodya: Aptitude is a Debian app, but I haven't used the NetISO (I connect with an eagle-usb modem which is not supported)
[07:03] <sarra_> Crap
[07:03] <sarra_> My desktop is doing that retarded thing where there's no video again
[07:04] <bimberi> Rodya: base (or server) install, get internet connection going, 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list', comment out cdrom line and uncomment the dapper/main lines, save&exit, 'sudo aptitude update', 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop'
[07:04] <eternalswd> I'm using xmms and the pieces ie main window, equalizer and playlist are not sticking together as one window.  Anyone know how to fix this?
[07:04] <crafteh> if i made a directory group writable and i am in the group that owns the directory, i should be able to create files in it right?
[07:04] <eyequeue> crafteh, correct
[07:04] <carthik> crafteh, writable by who?
[07:04] <bimberi> crafteh: if it is read and execute as well yes
[07:04] <Rodya> alright
[07:04] <Rodya> i'll try this
[07:05] <crafteh> it has permissions 2775, it is owned by root:data-user, i am in data-user but i can't create files in it
[07:05] <damnhil> can gcc 4.0.3 build the kernel?
[07:05] <carthik> crafteh, are you in data-user -- did you just add yourself?
[07:05] <sarra_> I HATE SLI! >_<
[07:05] <crafteh> i used webmin and it says i'm in it. how can i verify on the command line?
[07:05] <Warbo> damnhil: I would think so. Make sure you build any external drivers with the same version though
[07:06] <carthik> crafteh, just type "groups"
[07:06] <crafteh> ah, it doesn't think i'm in it
[07:06] <crafteh> maybe i just need to restart the shell
[07:06] <linuxboy> why is the alpha of edgy called knot 1 ?
[07:06] <carthik> crafteh, do "newgrp data-user"
[07:06] <Rodya> what all do i install to get ubuntu-desktop working?
[07:06] <Warbo> linuxboy: "A knot of Efts"
[07:06] <crafteh> the group is already created, i guess i'm just not in it
[07:07] <carthik> crafteh, then you dont need to restart.
[07:07] <carthik> crafteh, read man newgrp :)
[07:07] <crafteh> alright
[07:07] <Warbo> Rodya: installing ubuntu-desktop from a basic system should be enough
[07:07] <Madpilot> linuxboy, I guess a group of efts is called a knot. It's amazing, what free software can teach you. ;)
[07:07] <marcus__> hehehe
[07:08] <marcus__> it is amazing
[07:08] <angom_h> hi, does somebody knows wich package to get the header files (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386/build) for dapper ?
[07:08] <FusionXN1> HI, how do i make ubuntu mount a drive on start up?
[07:08] <Warbo> Madpilot: I couldn't even touch type before using terminals... Wait, is that a bad thing?
[07:08] <marcus__> Madpilot: can even teach you more than you want to know about people too.
[07:08] <linuxboy> Madpilot: can you back that up with a url ?
[07:08] <crafteh> carthik: how can I do the equivalent of 'newgrp data-user' for my gnome session?
[07:08] <Warbo> linux-headers-`uname -r`
[07:08] <carthik> angom_h, linux-headers-686 (or 386 or whatever your kernel is)
[07:08] <angom_h> thx carthik
[07:08] <carthik> crafteh, I suppose just doing that would do it
[07:08] <moshez> I'm using Dapper. apt-cache search shows "xen-tools", which recommends "xen" but "xen" isn't available. perhaps I have a screwed up sources.list, but if so, I'm not sure what the screw-up is.
[07:08] <FusionXN1> !mount
[07:08] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[07:09] <bimberi> moshez: put your sources.list on a pastebin
[07:09] <crafteh> hm, ok
[07:09] <crafteh> thanks
[07:09] <Warbo> carthik: I keep clear of those, since my kernel uses custom drivers which break if a meta-package upgrades itself for me
[07:09] <moshez> bimberi: thanks, just a sec
[07:09] <FusionXN1> ANyone know how to make ubuntu mount a drive on start up?
[07:09] <Warbo> !fstab
[07:09] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions that are mounted on the system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !partitions
[07:09] <bluefoxicy> edit /etc/fstab
[07:09] <carthik> Warbo, does that make it the wrong answer to the question that was asked ? :)
[07:09] <Kr0ntab> sup people
[07:09] <FusionXN1> k ty blue
[07:10] <Warbo> carthik: Well, my way doesn't break customised systems but still gets the job done :)
[07:10] <FusionXN1> blue - how do i edit it in terminal
[07:10] <Warbo> sudo nano /etc/fstab
[07:10] <FusionXN1> ty
[07:11] <moshez> rar, the pastebin be slow today :(
[07:11] <Madpilot> linux2, actually, no, I just had a quick google and I can't cite a source ;)
[07:11] <FusionXN1> Warbo how do i save it?
[07:11] <FusionXN1> Write out?
[07:12] <anonymeeee> how do I know if samba is up and working on my system/
[07:12] <anonymeeee> ?
[07:12] <moshez> my apt sources.list is here: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/gt7Fzc92.html
[07:13] <moshez> (Regarding my question about how come "xen-tools" is available and recommends "xen", which is not)
[07:13] <moshez> I updated a few minutes ago, so I doubt it's an update problem
[07:13] <highphilosopher> hello all
[07:13] <terrapenn> this is the strangest thing.  i have my fonts set up nice and proper for this screen, all the menus of most apps look good except for Firefox.  It's menus have great big ugly fonts.  Any ideas?
[07:13] <terrapenn> back in the day, I would have edited Xresources or somethign
[07:13] <moshez> you'll notice "multiverse" is commented out, by I tried adding multiverse and it did not have any effect
[07:13] <linux2> ok, anyone know what version of the synaptics touchpad ubuntu uses?
[07:14] <linux2> the module version
[07:14] <linux2> thanks in advance
[07:14] <terrapenn> I'm not really sure how Firefox chooses the fonts for its menus and toolbars
[07:14] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: goto about:config in firefox to change your fonts
[07:14] <terrapenn> linux, look on the packages website and see
[07:14] <terrapenn> high: i looked at that earlier...wasn't sure which controlled the menus and toolbars tho
[07:15] <highphilosopher> hang on...
[07:16] <FusionXN1> Oh crap, my 2nd hdd says i dont have permission to delete anything how do i change permissions
[07:16] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: ok, if you type font in the little search box on about:config theres a font.default.<your language> there
[07:16] <highphilosopher> Change that to one you have installed
[07:16] <terrapenn> alrighty
[07:17] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: in theory that should do it. (theory that is)
[07:17] <terrapenn> does that want the traditional X11 font string?  ie -0--Arial--3-10 yada yada?
[07:17] <sarra_> http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit - The stuff in the very bottom box: What do I do with it in the command line?
[07:17] <highphilosopher> no, it looks like just the name
[07:17] <highphilosopher> there is a default size further down the list for each language
[07:17] <terrapenn> oh great, there's no "en" there :)
[07:17] <highphilosopher> jeez
[07:18] <carthik> I need a sysadmin to help me with a server, not for free, of course, so how can I find one - I'd prefer someone who contributes to Ubuntu.
[07:18] <Lynoure> carthik: if physically, where?
[07:19] <carthik> Lynoure, not physically, dude :) the server is i-dont-know-in-which-datacenter
[07:19] <terrapenn> yeah, i don't remember having this problem on other Ubuntu installs...but this laptop is my first to have WSXGA+ (1680x1080) :)
[07:19] <valehru> carthik, what do you need done to it?
[07:20] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: holy crap, I cannot even find an extension for it.
[07:20] <carthik> valehru, need to harden it, and migrate some user accounts etc -- set it all up right, nameservers, etc etc
[07:20] <terrapenn> highphilosopher: hmmm, it has to be getting it from the X11/Xfce config somewhere
[07:20] <terrapenn> just not sure...it seems to ignore Xfce's application font preferences
[07:20] <Lynoure> carthik: sounds ok
[07:21] <valehru> I'd do it but im mad busy.....leaving for Ireland and then China in 5 hours
[07:21] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: is any other window manager installed?
[07:21] <terrapenn> highphilosopher: could be...not that i'm running, though
[07:21] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: open firefox in gnome, or kde and see if the font problem was the same
[07:21] <FusionXN1> How do i edit a drives permissions?
[07:21] <terrapenn> highphilosopher: strange thing is that Xfce's settings will affect the text in the browser's actual rendering of the page
[07:21] <Lynoure> carthik: but I'd rather talk business and prices in /msg than on a support channel.
[07:22] <terrapenn> but not on the menus
[07:23] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: ok, the menu's are fine, but the page fonts are messed up?
[07:23] <terrapenn> for the hell of it, im going to reinstall firefox
[07:23] <highphilosopher> wait
[07:23] <terrapenn> nope, the page fonts are great
[07:23] <terrapenn> it's firefox's menus, toolbars, that are messed up
[07:23] <terrapenn> i should post a screenshot :)
[07:23] <highphilosopher> ok, just making sure :)
[07:23] <highphilosopher> try a re-install
[07:23] <terrapenn> yup trying now
[07:23] <peabody> I'm currently running Fedora Core 4 with LVM.  I've been curious about Ubuntu for a while now however.  Will there be much trouble installing Ubuntu on the partition layout I'm currently on?.  I have a basic LVM setup with two hard drives.  No raid to my knowledge, just concatenation.  I have a seperate root and /home.
[07:24] <booger> hey all
[07:24] <highphilosopher> peabody: LVM is supported, but I reccomend the install CD instead of the live CD for an LVM install
[07:24] <jorge__> can someone help me out, when i try ./configure, it says "./configure: command not found"
[07:24] <booger> i would like some assistance with installing plugins into gaim, can anyone help me?
[07:24] <peabody> highphilosopher: Thanks.  Is there a guide to installing with LVM somewhere on the web?
[07:25] <highphilosopher> peabody: it's in the ubuntu install, you cannot miss it, do the manual hard drive partitioning.
[07:26] <highphilosopher> peabody: please do not repeat :)
[07:26] <highphilosopher> jorge__: did you install build_essential ?
[07:26] <peabody> highphilosopher: Thanks...do not repeat?  I make faux pas?
[07:27] <terrapenn> bummer, that didn't work
[07:27] <rishi> nalioth its been a while
[07:27] <rsync> this is annoying. my xfs corrupted , i had x working. i have reinstalled. x doesn't work anymore. there were some incremental changes, accumulated over time, to working X. Fresh x from breezy doesn't work. well it does, but it does not autodetect modes properly just drops you into 640 x 480 x 24.
[07:27] <highphilosopher> peabody: my bad, I thought I saw you repeat the same thing. I went back tho, and you didn't. P.S. I am losing it :0
[07:27] <rsync> modifying xorg.conf changes nothing.
[07:27] <peabody> highphilosopher: Ah, no worries.  It's been a crazy day for myself.
[07:28] <highphilosopher> terrapenn: make a new user and see if it looks the same for them
[07:28] <rishi> rsync, what are you trying to do?
[07:28] <rsync> well it does. subsequent restarts yield only black screen for any type of x sesion
[07:28] <rsync> rishi: i just have reinstalled from scratch
[07:28] <nalioth> rishi: a while for what?
[07:28] <FusionXN1> I need some help - i cant change permissions of my 2nd HDD: chown: changing ownership of `/media/sdb1': Read-only file syste
[07:28] <iNToIT> hi
[07:28] <Evil_Ed`> hey
[07:28] <rishi> nalioth: a while since I've been here...you've helped me out a lot in the past
[07:28] <rsync> rishi: using 5.10 install cd
[07:28] <highphilosopher> rsync: did you change your horiz or vert refresh rates?
[07:28] <rsync> rishi: and with all updated done in
[07:29] <Renan_s2> !DMA
[07:29] <nalioth> rishi: well, great, i hope you are here to help others with your knowledge
[07:29] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[07:29] <peabody> Is there a torrent for the latest install cd?  I seem to be having trouble finding it on google.
[07:29] <rishi> rsync, why?
[07:29] <rsync> highphilosopher: it is a laptop. last time it worked without any modification
[07:29] <rishi> nalioth: i am, whatever little knowledge i have, but i was hoping for some help too...i don't know how to install plugins for gaim
[07:29] <Madpilot> peabody, do you want the Dapper installer, or the new testing Edgy one?
[07:30] <nalioth> rishi: try #gaim
[07:30] <rishi> ok
[07:30] <highphilosopher> rsync: what did you change in xorg.conf?
[07:30] <terrapenn> brb
[07:30] <Evil_Ed`> you tell me
[07:30] <rishi> rsync: why are you using the breezy install?
[07:30] <peabody> Madpilot: Whatever's stable, sounds like I want the Dapper
[07:30] <highphilosopher> peabody: nodz
[07:31] <rsync> highphilosopher: i tried updating refresh to:
[07:31] <rsync>  HorizSync 30-68
[07:31] <rsync>  VertRefresh 50-75
[07:31] <FusionXN1> No one know how to change permissions?
[07:31] <rsync> rishi: dunno, i have that cd
[07:31] <Madpilot> peabody, go to http://www.ubuntu.com/download, pick a mirror close to you, grab the .torrent file
[07:31] <Rodya> thanks for all your help
[07:31] <Rodya> got ubuntu installed finally
[07:31] <jorge__> highphilosopher: ok, i'm installing build_essential now
[07:31] <crafteh> is there a way to change the default size of my terminal? i can't find that setting..... and it doesn't seem to remember my changes
[07:31] <highphilosopher> rsync: the horiz is alittle low. There should be a line there alittle above the refresh about fbdev. See if it's set to true or false
[07:32] <rishi> rsync: i'm not sure what problem you're having; but i would say get dapper man, its a ridiculous change...sooo much better
[07:33] <Kr0ntab> crafteh, you refering to yer actual console... or like yer gnome-terminal ?
[07:33] <peabody> 6.06 is dapper?
[07:33] <highphilosopher> rsync: You might run a dist-upgrade with apt-get. Then you could apt-get install xorg-reconfigure
[07:33] <highphilosopher> peabody: yes
[07:33] <peabody> highphilosopher: thanks
[07:33] <highphilosopher> peabody: :)
[07:33] <rsync> highphilosopher: i am running distupgrade already
[07:33] <highphilosopher> rsync: ok
[07:33] <crafteh> Kr0ntab: my gnome-terminal. i just found this page though: http://gnomesupport.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4326&sid=5f8a31cabc1012eb558eeb5bac2dd628
[07:33] <Kr0ntab> k
[07:33] <highphilosopher> P.S. did anyone order CD's from ubuntu.com?
[07:34] <pppoe_dude> any way to make ssh -X faster? it is reaally slow across a network if i run say, firefox
[07:34] <pppoe_dude> *across the internet
[07:34] <terrapenn> highphilosopher: indeed, it was correct for the new user
[07:34] <dli> pppoe_dude, slow network?
[07:34] <rishi> highphilosopher, i did
[07:34] <pppoe_dude> dli, no... it just doesnt use the nwtwork... it just waits a long time
[07:34] <terrapenn> high: so I nuked ~/.config and sure enough
[07:34] <dli> pppoe_dude, try : ssh -C -X -Y
[07:35] <terrapenn> so now I gotta re-do my desktop config and figure out what went wrong :)
[07:35] <pppoe_dude> dli, will do thanks
[07:35] <dli> pppoe_dude, remove exporting xhost DISPLAY in ~/.bash*
[07:36] <crafteh> what log rotating script does ubuntu use? (i'd like to put it on my real server)
[07:37] <peabody> hmm, did I want the desktop cd or the alternate cd?  I'm just now reading about LVM support in the alternate cd.
[07:38] <Madpilot> peabody, desktop is the liveCD w/ install, alternate is the old-fashioned text installer
[07:38] <Flannel> peabody: they both install the desktop, the 'desktop' CD is a liveCD with a new graphical installer
[07:38] <Kr0ntab> anyone else annoyed when after installing/removing applications (via apt, or wutevas) the gnome application menu folders are kind of scroll activated, until you to expand / visit them at least once?  Hehe... kind of lame little annoyance.
[07:38] <peabody> Thanks, sounds like I want the alternate then.
[07:38] <Madpilot> peabody, if you're doing something exotic with LVM, then you probably do
[07:39] <peabody> Madpilot: Nothing too exotic, but just to be safe.
[07:39] <protocol1> I typed this in my console to update my firefox "sudo chown -R ${USER}:${USER} /opt/firefox
[07:39] <protocol1> " and yeah it updated ok but when I tried to change permissions back to "sudo chown -R root:root /opt/firefox
[07:39] <protocol1> " I get an error?
[07:40] <peabody> I sort of prefer text based installs anyway, the ones where you can have a shell.  Nice to have those things.
[07:40] <terrapenn> i wonder if adblockplus.org is legit
[07:40] <terrapenn> it didn't use to be distributed from there
[07:40] <FusionXN1> whats the command to delete a folder
[07:41] <weex> can i use kde apps ok on ubuntu?
[07:41] <terrapenn> of couse, weex
[07:41] <FusionXN1> weex yes i have been able to
[07:41] <Kr0ntab> FusionXN1, rmdir
[07:41] <FusionXN1> ty
[07:41] <Kr0ntab> if it has contents in it...
[07:41] <Kr0ntab> rm -r dir
[07:42] <protocol1> think I should leave my browser set with this setting? "sudo chown -R ${USER}:${USER} /opt/firefox
[07:42] <protocol1> because thats the only way it works
[07:42] <Madpilot> protocol1, if that's the only way it works, something is broken in your Ubuntu install...
[07:42] <protocol1> and the update feature is not greyed out
[07:42] <protocol1> well
[07:42] <kj> kli
[07:42] <protocol1> I installed the browser when I used breezy
[07:43] <protocol1> now im using dapper
[07:43] <protocol1> so thats probably an issue
[07:43] <weex> is there a good replacement for access that i can use in ubuntu? I tried openoffice database but wasn't too impressed and there seems to be quite a list of db apps to check out
[07:44] <FusionXN1> when using the command sudo chown how do you make it owned to all users?
[07:44] <kj> bisa bahasa indo nggak
[07:44] <kj> tolong samperin
[07:45] <weex> didn't think there could be more than one owner or a file
[07:45] <Madpilot> protocol1, did you upgrade Firefox manually?
[07:45] <nalioth> !tg
[07:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about tg - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu

[07:45] <FusionXN1> weex well i was doign sudo chown -R root and i change it to sudo chown -R fusionxn1 and it allows me to do anything in there now
[07:46] <FusionXN1> WOuld be nice for all users tho
[07:46] <terrapenn> the free mono font rules
[07:46] <terrapenn> esp. at bold
[07:46] <nalioth> FusionXN1: where did you run your command?
[07:46] <FusionXN1> terminal
[07:47] <FusionXN1> I'm missing the font for this website (http://box.net/) anyone know what it is

[07:53] <BeepAU> FusionXN1 - So, do you think you could help me?

[07:58] <Amaranth> Madpilot: Kickban me. :)
[07:58] <DBO> gentlemen, this kind of conduct is for the offtopic room, you know, where we be stupid all the time
[07:58] <Madpilot> DBO, thanks for the reminder :)

[07:58] <protocol1> eyequeue, I do have the latest version of firefox....im just wondering how to grey out the update link for the browser again?
[07:59] <eyequeue> protocol1, did you install it via the deb?  is the version this: Version: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.5-0ubuntu6.06
[07:59] <protocol1> heres what I typed to update my web browser "sudo chown -R ${USER}:${USER} /opt/firefox"
[08:00] <eyequeue> protocol1, if not, i recommend installing the deb
[08:00] <protocol1> when I set the browser back to this "sudo chown -R root:root /opt/firefox"
[08:00] <protocol1> i get the error
[08:01] <protocol1> yeah well its not a big issue
[08:01] <protocol1> its working now so I wont bother it till I really have a problem
[08:02] <CmdrBatGuano> VLC refuses to play anything (regardless of format) and gives this as the excuse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19074

[08:02] <CmdrBatGuano> but the error is identical regardless of filetype
[08:02] <FusionXN1> Dark - thanks but i dont know how to install these fonts
[08:02] <FusionXN1> !fonts
[08:02] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[08:02] <ubotu> No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[08:03] <hussam> what gstreamer or something plugins do I install to get rhythmbox working?
[08:06] <FusionXN1> Dark i done it :)
[08:06] <damnhil> hussam: There was a page on ubuntuguide
[08:06] <DarkED> FusionXN1: lol glad you got it workin :X
[08:06] <DarkED> :D
[08:06] <damnhil> hussam:  Search "Unofficial Ubuntu Starter Guide" and find the gsreamer info in the page
[08:07] <DarkED> yeah... i uh... i think im giving up ubuntu for a while
[08:07] <FusionXN1> dark - moved fonts to .fonts under my username
[08:07] <Madpilot> !mp3

[08:07] <DarkED> FusionXN1: was it arial?
[08:07] <Madpilot> damnhil & hussam - use the pages that ubotu just posted above, instead of ubuntuguide... the official docs really are better, in this case
[08:08] <spiderworm> hi all, what sort of kernel should i be running with a AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+ chip? k7? 686?
[08:08] <DarkED> spiderworm: if its amd, run k7
[08:08] <spiderworm> sorry about the (tm)... was copying and pasting there *grin*

[08:08] <DarkED> spiderworm: np :D
[08:09] <DarkED> but anyway, ubuntu dapper doesnt want to work with my ati card, no matter what i do. breezy was fine, and even with newest fglrx, nothing works. so im gonna take a break and try out fedora 5
[08:09] <terrapenn> surely there has to be a nicer AIM client than GAIM, right?
[08:09] <DarkED> terrapenn: kopete is good
[08:09] <spiderworm> terrapenn: i like kopete
[08:10] <Phenax> terrapenn: What's wrong with Gaim?
[08:10] <DarkED> Phenax: gaim is nice but kinda plain
[08:10] <Phenax> How so?
[08:10] <terrapenn> the interface is HUGE
[08:10] <spiderworm> also it uses gtk... yick
[08:10] <chip42> Phenax: its missing the built in advertising.. if using an IM isn't like watching a commercial, your client sucks
[08:10] <terrapenn> with AdiumX on my mac, I can make my buddy list very small, compact
[08:10] <Phenax> chip42: Hehehe
[08:10] <DarkED> Phenax: it just is. kopete is like the trillian pro of linux
[08:11] <Phenax> I hate Trillian
[08:11] <terrapenn> i'm running 1680x1024 on this laptop and GAIM takes up a huge part of it
[08:11] <DarkED> Phenax: thats why you like gaim :D
[08:11] <Phenax> terrapenn: Resize it?
[08:11] <FusionXN1> How do i rename a HDD?
[08:11] <Phenax> I'm running 1280x1024 and it takes like 1/1000000th of my screen.
[08:11] <terrapenn> maybe somebody has written a good curses-based AIM client :)
[08:11] <Phenax> naim
[08:11] <terrapenn> hell, ncurses+libgaim would make for a nice client
[08:11] <CmdrBatGuano> terrapenn: there's nothing on linux that will let you get rid of window borders
[08:11] <Phenax> naim uses ncurses
[08:11] <test> but kopete rules
[08:12] <CmdrBatGuano> and there is no true transparency unless you run xgl
[08:12] <DarkED> test: yep
[08:12] <FusionXN1> test ^^ hear hear
[08:12] <test> heres a question: Can xgl be run on a intel915?
[08:12] <Phenax> terrapenn: But why don't you resize the gaim window? Does your WM not support window resizing? rofl.
[08:13] <terrapenn> heh, naim is perfect
[08:13] <terrapenn> :)
[08:13] <azrael0> naim ftw
[08:13] <terrapenn> phenax, its still way, way too big
[08:13] <CmdrBatGuano> Phenax:Adium lets you get rid of windowdressings
[08:13] <azrael0> Plus, naim has screen resumable
[08:13] <terrapenn> i hate windowdressings
[08:13] <azrael0> Works very well to allow you to remain logged on for a long time, but not need to have your client up.
[08:15] <CmdrBatGuano> terrapenn:you could just leave the buddy list closed all the time and gaim will retract to a panel widget
[08:15] <CmdrBatGuano> then it takes up like 20x20px
[08:15] <terrapenn> i'd rather have a small buddy list
[08:15] <Cynical> I can't get above 1280x800 on my laptop
[08:15] <CmdrBatGuano> then I guess you're out of luck unless you want to write one
[08:16] <Cynical> even though native resolution is 1440x900
[08:16] <linux2> does ubuntu use kernel 2.6.15.3?
[08:17] <FusionXN1> No one know how to rename a HDD
[08:17] <bimberi_> linux2: 2.6.15-26
[08:17] <Cynical> its up to like 2.6.5.26
[08:17] <Kr0ntab> 2.6.15-26
[08:17] <Cynical> lol
[08:17] <linux2> can you even download the source for that?
[08:17] <Cynical> what they said
[08:17] <linux2> all i see is 2.6.15.2 and 2.6.15.3
[08:17] <Cynical> anyone know how to fix my resolution problem
[08:17] <FusionXN1> !amarok

[08:19] <hussam> Madpilot, damnhil: thanks :)
[08:19] <DarkED> vlc kicks ass
[08:19] <DarkED> er... arse
[08:19] <DarkED> sorry
[08:19] <Phenax> I like mplayer better
[08:19] <DarkED> but if you dont have opengl accel, forget it
[08:19] <DarkED> videos look like crap
[08:19] <linux2> so then 2.6.15.2 source would be correct?
[08:19] <Seveas> !enter
[08:19] <chris86wm> is there a gnome equivalent to konquerer?
[08:19] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.

[08:25] <linux2> FusionXN1, how so?
[08:25] <damnhil> FusionXN1: what do you mean rename?
[08:26] <damnhil> FusionXN1: Do you know if Duron  800 faster than Pentium 450?
[08:26] <FusionXN1> its set to free space: BLA BLA in the COmputer i want it to be set to storage
[08:26] <Renan_s2> damnhil, a little
[08:26] <FusionXN1> Damn  - no
[08:26] <damnhil> Renan_s2: Why is it a little?
[08:26] <damnhil> Renan_s2: clock speed doesn't count?
[08:27] <Renan_s2> damnhil, not much, Duron is low-end
[08:27] <Renan_s2> Pentium is higher-end
[08:27] <FusionXN1> WHy wont amaroK play MP3?!?!
[08:27] <FusionXN1> i got xine engine enabled
[08:27] <terrapenn> your roommate is a nerd!
[08:27] <damnhil> Renan_s2: You are right. I bet the Duron is the same as Celeron
[08:27] <Renan_s2> :)
[08:27] <Flannel> FusionXN1: you need to download the KDE mp3 libs
[08:27] <terrapenn> yeah, and on the moon, nerds get their pants pulled down and spanked with moon rocks!
[08:27] <FusionXN1> flannel - you know the name?
[08:27] <Renan_s2> nerds rule :)
[08:28] <linux2> kernel compilation takes soo long
[08:28] <FusionXN1> found it :)
[08:28] <FusionXN1> this it? au/avi/m3u/mp3/ogg/wav plugins for kfile
[08:28] <chris86wm> any other konquerer alternatives that i can try out?
[08:28] <Renan_s2> chris86wm, konqueror as a file manager?
[08:28] <chris86wm> yes
[08:29] <Renan_s2> try Thunar, or endeavour2
[08:29] <Phenax> chris86wm: links -g, firefox, epiphany, mozilla, seamonky
[08:29] <Renan_s2> endeavour2 is a lot like Windows Explorer
[08:29] <Phenax> Oh, as a filemanager ;p
[08:29] <Flannel> FusionXN1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-1340337f2ca1d0c54900935468515ba7630fcc59  The Kubuntu part
[08:29] <chris86wm> lol sry phenax i didnt explain
[08:29] <Phenax> fsv, rofl
[08:29] <Phenax> fsv is the expermental 3d filemanager they used in Jurassic Park, be cool like them.
[08:29] <notjosh> any idea why ntp is broken on dapper? :/
[08:30] <Lynoure> notjosh: Which kind of broken?
[08:30] <Phenax> I personally just use xterm plus a few basic utilities.. too lazy to get a file manager ;/
[08:30] <Renan_s2> I use Konqueror, myself.
[08:30] <Bergcube> notjosh~  I don't think it is.  Not in general I mean.
[08:30] <chris86wm> it just seems to run a bit slow in gnome
[08:30] <notjosh> Lynoure: well, there's no 'ntp*' in /etc/init.d/, which bugs me :/
[08:31] <rsync> wow its getting better, just did dist upgrade. got vfs panic.
[08:31] <chris86wm> thought i would try a few alternatives before making my final decision on one
[08:31] <Phenax> kyle@localhost ~ $ ls /etc/init.d/ntp*
[08:31] <Phenax> /etc/init.d/ntp-client  /etc/init.d/ntpd
[08:31] <notjosh> Bergcube: well, i don't think it really is broken.. maybe the install failed silenty? just funno how to diagnose
[08:32] <notjosh> Phenax: 'apt-get install ntp' didn't give me either of those :/
[08:32] <Phenax> It should come with baselayout
[08:32] <Phenax> baselayout is a bunch of scripts for sysvinit
[08:33] <Bergcube> notjosh~  I'll let you and Phenax meditate on that.  (My wife just appeared in another window.)  :-)
[08:33] <chris86wm> thunar
[08:33] <chris86wm> oh crap lol
[08:33] <notjosh> Phenax: if it's any consolation, i'm pretty damn noob with linux. :/
[08:33] <cratel> how can I get the screen resolution correct on a MacBook Pro under Dapper?
[08:34] <Phenax> sysvinit is the thing that starts all services and maintains them.. baselayout is a bunch of scripts and junk for sysvinit (Located in /etc/init.d/*)
[08:34] <cratel> !MacBook
[08:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about MacBook - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:34] <carthik> cratel, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:35] <Phenax> Meaning the best thing to do would probably to get the latest and greatest baselayout
[08:35] <notjosh> Phenax: oic, so does that mean something failed to create the scripts somewhere?
[08:35] <notjosh> ah
[08:36] <sponix> whats the command to give dpkg to list all installed pkgs ?
[08:37] <vook> man dpkg
[08:37] <bimberi_> sponix: dpkg -l | grep ^ii
[08:38] <hussam> damnhil: no, a mp3 internet radio
[08:39] <sponix> anyone seen mplayer hang, it will FF throught the video just fine, but it pauses/freezes when its not in FF (normal play doesn't work)
[08:42] <Renan_s2> !mathematica
[08:42] <ubotu> I know nothing about mathematica - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu

[08:45] <joachim-n> where's the system monitor gone?
[08:45] <DarkED> question, i want to move this ubuntu install to a smaller partition
[08:45] <DarkED> theres plenty of space free, can i just copy and paste it?
[08:45] <SeraVitae> Seveas - the vpn software itself is fine, something else in the system is missing.
[08:46] <bruenig> DarkED, why not resize your current partition and incorporate the free space in the other partition, assuming the partitions are next to each other
[08:46] <DarkED> bruenig: they arent :D
[08:46] <ubuntu_nub> can someone point me to a link that helps with doing installs of files?
[08:47] <ubuntu_nub> i want to install vlc media player

[08:48] <ubuntu_nub> triedthis line under root

[08:48] <crimsun> vlc is in universe.
[08:48] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell ubuntu_nub about universe

[08:57] <kubuntu_nub> likwidtek:  can ya pm me? :)
[08:57] <Wapol> i dont know where the file to open it is
[08:57] <bruenig> Wapol, aircrack is terminal only maybe, I know it is some sort of wifi cracker, but that is about the extent of my knowledge
[08:58] <bruenig> Wapol, open a terminal Applications>Accessories>terminal and type aircrack --help

[08:58] <mungewell> bruenig - can't see how to stop it starting there.... Normally I would select a lesser runlevel but I seem to be at 2, and 1 is single user. Any other suggestions to prevent GDM starting?

[08:59] <Wapol> here /usr/lib/menu/aircrack
[08:59] <Madpilot> Wapol, try typing 'aircrack' in a terminal - with no quotes

[09:00] <damnhil> Wapol: can you run aircrack?
[09:00] <kubuntu_nub> someone point me to a userfriendly rls that would allow me to install torrentflux pls? :)
[09:00] <likwidtek> does anyone have experience with getting the powerbook buttons for volume and screen brightness to work?
[09:00] <Wapol> then

[09:01] <ubotu> torrentflux: web based, feature-rich BitTorrent download manager. In repository universe, is optional. Version 2.1-1 (edgy), package size 410 kB, installed size 2688 kB
[09:01] <Madpilot> Wapol, open the terminal, then type aircrack, yes
[09:01] <neuro-> Does anyone have any experience getting a Linksys WMP54G PC Wireless NIC (using the BCM4306 rev.03 chipset) working?
[09:01] <dooglus> kubuntu_nub: edgy has it if you don't mind things being a little rough
[09:01] <Wapol> so type whereis aircrack right?
[09:01] <neuro-> PCI*
[09:01] <Wapol> ok
[09:01] <Madpilot> Wapol, try just typing 'aircrack' first
[09:01] <kubuntu_nub> no ubuntu can run torrentflux? :(
[09:01] <Wapol> i saw a directory
[09:02] <dooglus> kubuntu_nub: edgy has it
[09:02] <liquidten2> Wapol: just type in aircrack to run it.  Typing in "whereis aircrack" would tell you where it is physically located.
[09:02] <bruenig> kubuntu_nub, are you sure you want torrentflux, do you have a webserver that you intend to run it on?
[09:02] <kubuntu_nub> i do :)
[09:02] <dooglus> kubuntu_nub: debian testing and debian unstable also have it
[09:02] <Wapol> usr-sbin-aircrack-usr-share-man-man1-aircrack.1.gz
[09:02] <likwidtek> brb
[09:02] <Wapol> dats what it show me
[09:02] <byen> Guys my usb stick only gets mounted when i use  sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd ... what can i do to make it automount
[09:02] <Wapol> or just type aircrack?
[09:03] <Wapol> im confused
[09:03] <bruenig> Wapol, type aircrack, see what hapens
[09:03] <Madpilot> Wapol, just typing 'aircrack' should run the program; the whereis command shows where it is, which doesn't usually matter
[09:03] <liquidten2> Wapol:  If it is installed and in your path, just type in the name of the program to get it to run.
[09:03] <Wapol> ok
[09:03] <Wapol> ill try
[09:03] <Wapol> wait
[09:03] <kubuntu_nub> bruenig:  mind helping me in a pm?
[09:03] <Madpilot> !enter
[09:03] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[09:04] <Wapol> ok
[09:04] <neuro-> Does anyone have any experience getting a Linksys WMP54G PCI Wireless NIC (using the BCM4306 rev.03 chipset) working?
[09:04] <Wapol> i see a bunch of words
[09:04] <kubuntu_nub> someone help me install mysql on here?
[09:04] <bruenig> kubuntu_nub, I might be able to help with the install, but setting up a bittorrent client that runs on a webserver is certainly not something I could help you with
[09:04] <Madpilot> kubuntu_nub, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[09:04] <kubuntu_nub> how far could you help me?
[09:05] <Wapol> erm
[09:05] <mungewell> Wapol - if the program is /usr/sbin/aircrack, I think you need to 'root' inorder to run it (the 'sbin' indicates that).
[09:05] <Wapol> ??
[09:05] <Wapol> i just downloaded linux yesterday
[09:05] <mungewell> Wapol - try  typing 'sudo aircrack' which will ask you for your password
[09:05] <Leeif> hi. anyone knows how to get transparency in urxvt?
[09:05] <Wapol> sorry im a noob
[09:05] <bruenig> kubuntu_nub, it has an install text that comes with it, did you read that
[09:05] <Madpilot> Wapol, you're getting into fairly complex stuff right away. Why do you need to run aircrack?
[09:05] <Wapol> what do you mean by root
[09:06] <liquidten2> Wapol:  What does, "sudo whereis aircrack" say.
[09:06] <byen> can anyone help me mount a usb drive automatically . I can mount it by using sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd  atm
[09:06] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Minus the quotes, just type out what is inside it.
[09:06] <mungewell> Wapol - that's OK. Linux is very hot of permissions. 'Root' is like windows Administrator
[09:06] <Wapol> my password for my router is lost and i cant reset it.] 
[09:06] <Madpilot> Wapol, the router probably has a reset button on it somewhere... check the manual
[09:06] <neuro-> just reset it physically. yeah
[09:06] <sarra_> Wapol: someone hacked my router and updated the firmware to a version that doesn't actually exist
[09:07] <zack_> i updated breezy and now when i log out there is no option to save my current setup how do i save it?
[09:07] <Wapol> it asked for my password if i typed sudo whereis aircrack
[09:07] <Wapol> and i cant type the passwrod
[09:07] <liquidten2> Wapol:  type int he password that you created during the ubuntu install.
[09:07] <kubuntu_nub> it types it u just dont see it move
[09:07] <Wapol> i cant reset it
[09:07] <zack_> i updated breezy and now when i log out there is no option to save my current setup how do i save it?
[09:07] <Wapol> i tried to type but nothing comes out
[09:08] <liquidten2> Wapol:  You don't see ANY output, but it does type in.  Just type your password and hit enter.
[09:08] <neuro-> that's meant to happy
[09:08] <neuro-> happen*
[09:08] <likwidtek> Anyone know if it is possible to get the Mac buttons for volume and brightness to work in Ubuntu ?
[09:08] <Madpilot> Wapol, in terminal, the password isn't echoed,but it should be working
[09:08] <Wapol> how about can any1 teach me the basics on how to install a programme
[09:08] <Wapol> first
[09:08] <bruenig> mungewell, did moving that script work?
[09:08] <damnhil> Wapol: Routers usually have a reset button. Refer to the router's manual to reset the router to manufacture defaults
[09:08] <liquidten2> Wapol:  "sudo synaptic"
[09:08] <Wapol> im very very confused :(
[09:08] <Madpilot> Wapol, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[09:08] <zack_> i updated breezy and now when i log out there is no option to save my current setup how do i save it?
[09:09] <damnhil> Wapol: use synaptic package manager; google search ubuntuguide and start from there
[09:09] <Wapol> im in
[09:09] <mungewell> bruenig - it would for certain, but isn't a  nice way to do it. I'll keep looking for the proper solution ;-)
[09:09] <damnhil> Wapol: what is confusing you?
[09:09] <Wapol> the smpatic pakage manager
[09:09] <kubuntu_nub> install apache and installing php5 do i need php4 as well?
[09:09] <Wapol> i dont know how to install prorammes
[09:09] <Madpilot> Wapol, there are several pages linked to from that SynapticHowto page, check them out too
[09:09] <Leeif> is there i way to update urxvt to the latest version? i have the one in the repository, v7.0, but the current version is 7.8 ..........
[09:09] <Wapol> from the synitic pakage man
[09:10] <zack_> i updated breezy and now when i log out there is no option to save my current setup how do i save it?
[09:10] <Madpilot> Wapol, Synaptic is how you install stuff, read that tutorial...
[09:10] <mungewell> clear
[09:10] <Wapol> ok
[09:10] <kane77> anyone tried running photoshop with wine??
[09:10] <damnhil> Wapol: are you a German?
[09:10] <Wapol> where is the tutorial??
[09:10] <Leeif> help me! :p
[09:10] <Wapol> nope
[09:10] <liquidten2> Wapol:  when you type in "sudo" anything, you are running the command as root, which is equivalent to the windows Administrator.  It will ask you for a password, just type in the password that you created, and then hit enter when you finished.  Nothing will be echoed back, but once you hit enter it will work properly, if you typed the password in.   Typign in "sudo synaptic", and then entering your password will open up Synaptic which is
[09:10] <Wapol> singaporian
[09:10] <Madpilot> Wapol, I just gave you a webpage link: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[09:10] <damnhil> Wapol:  citizen ?
[09:10] <zack_> ok i updated to dapper apparently how do i save my current setup when i log off?
[09:10] <Wapol> ok
[09:11] <kubuntu_nub> install apache and installing php5 do i need php4 as well?
[09:11] <liquidten2> zack_:  Desktop ---> Preferences ----> Sessions    Then check "ask on logo9ut"
[09:11] <Wapol> ok thks
[09:11] <neuro-> Does anyone have any experience getting a Linksys WMP54G PCI Wireless NIC (using the BCM4306 rev.03 chipset) working?
[09:12] <Madpilot> kubuntu_nub, that depends on what you're running, some PHP stuff will need specific versions of PHP
[09:13] <liquidten2> kubuntu_nub:  You will need php4 for php4 and php5 for things that require php5.

[09:15] <liquidscythe> i need it fast

[09:17] <Madpilot> liquidscythe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories
[09:17] <liquidten2> liquidscythe:  Enable the optional repositories and then retype the command.
[09:18] <Wapol> i know how to install programmes from the  Synaptic package manager but i dont know where to find it after i install the programme
[09:18] <Wapol> can any1 tell me how to find it?
[09:18] <Madpilot> Wapol, that depends on the program.
[09:18] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Just type in the name of the program.  Also, don't forget about tab completion.
[09:18] <bruenig> Wapol, It depends on the program whether or not you will see it. If it is a command line only program you wont see it. If it is graphical, it should show up in the applications menu
[09:19] <liquidten2> Wapol:  If i downloaded xmms, then I would simply type in "xmms" and it would run.
[09:19] <Wapol> so i just type the name of the programme in the command line?
[09:19] <kane77> Wapol, well most of the time you can find it in applications menu... in the corresponding category
[09:19] <bruenig> Wapol, that works
[09:19] <Madpilot> Wapol, try using Add/Remove Applications instead, everything it installs is available thru the menus - Synaptic can install more stuff, though
[09:19] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Yes.  you can also make shortcuts to them on the desktop, or find them in the menu.
[09:19] <Wapol> oh
[09:19] <Leeif> liquidten2: dude the 7.8 version is way more stable! why dont they update the repo?
[09:19] <Wapol> but where is the file in the folder
[09:19] <liquidten2> Wapol:  But not ALL packages install to the menu.
[09:19] <Wapol> the file itself other than typing in the command
[09:19] <Wapol> ok
[09:20] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Type in "whereis commandname"
[09:20] <kubuntu_nub> how do i install mysql db?
[09:20] <bruenig> wapol, more than likely, the files, the executable if you will is in /usr/bin somewhere
[09:20] <Wapol> what would be the commandname?
[09:20] <liquidten2> Leeif:  I don't know why, i'm not in charge of the repos ;)
[09:20] <liquidten2> Wapol:  commandname=name of the program
[09:20] <liquidten2> for example
[09:20] <Wapol> ok
[09:20] <Wapol> ill give it a try

[09:22] <liquidten2> Wapol:  That is the output you get when you are looking for where a program is stored.  But in reality, you don't need to know so much, because you can simply remove the program from synaptic when you need to, and all you need to know is the name of the program to run it.  it's not like windows.
[09:22] <rixth> Where is it looking for that file?
[09:22] <bruenig> SeraVitae, have you tried babelfishing it?
[09:22] <Wapol> erm
[09:22] <byen> I do sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd and my usd drive mounts.. how can i mount it automatically? can someone please help

[09:22] <rixth> Ok.
[09:22] <Wapol> i tried typing whereis aircrack but it tells me a directory which is invalid
[09:22] <kubuntu_nub> how do i install mysql db?

[09:23] <rixth> liquidten2, the program just stopped working It was before.
[09:23] <Wapol> erm i tried typing whereis aircrack but it tells me a directory which is invalid
[09:23] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Is aircrack installed?  If simply typing in "aricrack" doesn't work, then it is not installed properly.

[09:24] <warlock> ?
[09:24] <SeraVitae> bruenig - yes. it's a bad translation
[09:24] <liquidten2> rixth:  Do you have GCC installed?  Do a "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[09:24] <SeraVitae> it says .config: not found, and i assume i'm missing some sort of config thing.
[09:24] <SeraVitae> in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15
[09:24] <bruenig> SeraVitae, maybe try going to #ubuntu-de and seeing if any of them speak english, as that is probably more likely than one of us speaking german
[09:25] <SeraVitae> uh
[09:25] <SeraVitae> yeah.
[09:25] <Leeif> liquidten2: w8, i thnk i got it
[09:25] <Wapol> erm i typed aircrack in the terminal and it only gives my a buch of words. not the programme
[09:25] <warlock> can I see where what dir the user is in through the "who" command ?
[09:25] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Those bunch of words, unless they are "command not found", might infact be the program.
[09:25] <Phenax> Wapol: Not all programs are designed using a graphical toolkit ;)..
[09:26] <bruenig> Wapol, aircrack is not something that pops up in a window and you click buttons and such, It is a command line program where you type command and options to do things
[09:26] <Madpilot> Wapol, what did the 'bunch of words' say?
[09:26] <sarra_> How can I make a FAT32 drive read/write enabled for all users?

[09:28] <Madpilot> Wapol, seriously, most routers have reset buttons hidden somewhere, look for that to reset your password to the factory default...

[09:29] <likwidtek> If my software update icon next to the date is greyed out and says a package manager is working but nothing is open, is somethign wrong?

[09:30] <liquidten2> Leeif:  Just to make sure, you're compiling from source right?  If so, make sure you are running "./configure" "make" "sudo make install" in that order when you get past ./configure.
[09:30] <Madpilot> Wapol, then you're far better off talking to someone who *does* know the password - or who has permission to reset it - rather than trying aircrack...

[09:31] <Wapol> can someone teach me to use wine?
[09:31] <Wapol> when i type wine

[09:32] <aninhumer> Can anyone help me? I only get sound on the left channel, and sometimes I get high pitched whining on the right.
[09:32] <Wapol> lets say i have a .exe file
[09:32] <Wapol> how do i use wine to open it???
[09:32] <liquidten2> aninhumer:  What is your soundcard?
[09:32] <bruenig> Wapol, do wine then enter the path to the .exe file
[09:32] <liquidten2> Wapol:  type in "wine Filename.exe"
[09:33] <KeithWeisshar> i'm having a problem with the burned ubuntu dvd
[09:33] <liquidten2> Wapol:  Make sure that you type in the full path to the .exe, like "wine /home/username/Program.exe"
[09:33] <bruenig> for instance if the .exe file is on the desktop, you would do wine /home/username/Desktop/whatever.exe, filling in username with yours and whatever with the real name
[09:33] <KeithWeisshar> it's detecting as a blank dvd after burning
[09:33] <Wapol> ok
[09:33] <Wapol> oo
[09:33] <aninhumer> liquidten2, it uses the "hda via vt82xx" driver, and
[09:33] <KeithWeisshar> o
[09:33] <Wapol> but how do i install windows programmes on linux??
[09:33] <KeithWeisshar> i'm having an issue with the dvd that i just burned
[09:33] <liquidten2> Wapol:  You can use wine >_>
[09:33] <DarkED> hey all
[09:34] <KeithWeisshar> it's detected as blank even though it looks burned
[09:34] <DarkED> have a question
[09:34] <zerokarmaleft> Wapol: use wine to run Setup.exe or whatever
[09:34] <aninhumer> liquidten2, the lspci line is "0000:04:01.0 0403: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA High Definition Audio Controller"
[09:34] <Wapol> how?
[09:34] <Wapol> ok
[09:34] <Wapol> it will still install as usual on a windows pc right?
[09:34] <DarkED> how do i move this ubuntu install from one partition to another?
[09:34] <zerokarmaleft> Wapol: you'll also want to examine the directory structure of /home/username/.wine
[09:34] <DarkED> i dont want to lose this install, i have too much into it
[09:34] <Wapol> ok
[09:34] <Wapol> ill try opening a .exe file
[09:35] <liquidten2> aninhumer:  I don't know how to break it to you, but from the looks of it, that soundcard(it's onboard motherboard builtin sound) is not well supported at the moment.   The best solution at the moment would be to upgrade Alsa(which mprobably won't help) or to purchase a Soundblaster Live!
[09:35] <zerokarmaleft> a pseudo drive c: directory gets created and you'll see the familiar windows subdirectories from that point, e.g. Program Files/ Windows/, etc.
[09:35] <bruenig> DarkED, I would backup the stuff that I want to keep, it could be almost everything. Install a fresh version on the other partition and then just add the other stuff. Afterwards. Backup the /home dir. the /usr directory whatever you want and then just put that into a fresh install
[09:36] <KeithWeisshar> my ubuntu dvd isn't working
[09:36] <DarkED> bruenig: i need my installed packages to stay the same :D
[09:36] <aninhumer> liquidten2, I guess it's my fault for buying from a cheap dealer, thanks
[09:36] <BanBot> Hello there, BanBot
[09:36] <DarkED> i meant by that, i have lots of download and updating time into this install :D about 6 gig worth
[09:36] <BanBot> Hello there!
[09:36] <bruenig> DarkED, you could do that in theory. Just keep everything from the directories you have installed it from. Like /usr
[09:36] <BanBot> Hello there!
[09:36] <BanBot> Hello there, fata1ity
[09:36] <DarkED> bruenig: i see
[09:36] <fata1ity> hi banbot!
[09:36] <BanBot> BanBot can!
[09:37] <fata1ity> no you can't!
[09:37] <BanBot> I believe the answer is yes, fata1ity
[09:37] <KeithWeisshar> my ubuntu dvd is showing up as blank
[09:37] <bruenig> or unless you intend to delete the old partition immediately. You could install the fresh install. Then mount the other partition and copy over everything. Obviously have to keep some stuff because of certain changes
[09:37] <liquidten2> KeithWeisshar:  I hate to say it, but was it burnt properly?
[09:37] <zerokarmaleft> Wapol, so applications will typically install to /home/username/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SomeApp/SomeApp.exe, and then you launch with wine: wine "~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SomeApp/SomeApp.exe"
[09:38] <DarkED> bruenig: yeah, but i just want to mirror this partition to another, change the grub menu.lst, and boot into it :D
[09:38] <DarkED> i need this partition for another bigger distro
[09:38] <bruenig> DarkED, just overwrite everything with the other partition
[09:38] <KeithWeisshar> it was burned completely
[09:38] <kubuntu_nub> i downloaded mysql now how do i install it? :)
[09:38] <zerokarmaleft> Wapol: when you get tired of that you should write an executable bash script that issues the same command, or create a .desktop entry
[09:38] <KeithWeisshar> it was burned in nero
[09:38] <DarkED> bruenig: i tried, it wont lemme do some things in the /sys folder
[09:38] <DarkED> bruenig: says i dont have permissions to read, even as root
[09:39] <Madpilot> kubuntu_nub, if you got it from synaptic, it's already installed
[09:39] <Wapol> erm how do i open the programme after i install it?
[09:39] <bruenig> DarkED, this seems the most reasonable way to do it. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087&highlight=backup+restore
[09:39] <KeithWeisshar> nero says it was burned successfully
[09:39] <bruenig> Dont exclude anything and then overwrite it all and make the appropriate changes to the menu.list
[09:39] <DarkED> thanks!
[09:39] <KeithWeisshar> i also see the burned area on the disc
[09:39] <loko555> i need a guide to handle wireless stuff, e.g. i can have the mac-adress of an router, now i want to connect, where can i find infos about this?
[09:40] <loko555> can somebody give me a tip please?
[09:40] <kubuntu_nub> i didnt get from synaptic
[09:40] <Wapol> how do i open the programme after i install it?
[09:40] <bruenig> !wireless
[09:40] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:40] <kubuntu_nub> had to manually download :\ .tar.gz
[09:40] <Madpilot> kubuntu_nub, no you didn't, MySQL is in the repos...
[09:40] <loko555> ubotu: thanks
[09:41] <ubotu> I know nothing about thanks - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:41] <kubuntu_nub> mysql-standard-5.0.22-linux-i686-glibc23.tar.gz
[09:41] <loko555> !wireless
[09:41] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:41] <kubuntu_nub> is what  i downloaded striaght from mysql
[09:41] <kubuntu_nub> i didnt use command
[09:41] <mp3guy> theres something wrong with wine & winecfg, the font is set to something weird and all the characters are like musical notation and "TAB"
[09:41] <kubuntu_nub> terminal*
[09:41] <liquidten2> KeithWeisshar:  Is the DVD actually blank then, or is the OS just detecting it that way?  You could try to reboot with the CD in the drive and see if the install session starts.  If not, then  maybe the DVD could be physically bad.
[09:41] <Wapol> erm how do i open the programme after i install it?
[09:41] <loko555> heh, thanks bruenig
[09:41] <Madpilot> kubuntu_nub, please go read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP, it will answer all the questions you've been asking
[09:41] <bruenig> lol
[09:41] <KeithWeisshar> windows is detecting it this way
[09:41] <loko555> how should i know
[09:41] <Wapol> how do i open the programme after i install it?
[09:41] <cello_rasp> hue
[09:42] <bruenig> have to figure out it is a bot at some point
[09:42] <bruenig> not born with that knowledge
[09:42] <loko555> right
[09:42] <DarkED> bruenig: ok, it says to exclude /sys. you say to not exclude anything. what is in /proc and /sys?
[09:43] <Wapol> erm how do i open the programme after i install it?
[09:43] <DarkED> everything else copied
[09:43] <DarkED> except proc and sys, proc acts like nothing is in it
[09:43] <Wapol> like i dont know where it is even installed
[09:43] <liquidten2> the /proc and /sys don't matter, they are generated by the system upon bootup.
[09:44] <DarkED> liquidten2: ooh thanks bro!
[09:44] <DarkED> awesomness, it'll work then'
[09:44] <bruenig> DarkED, hopefully you have something that will hold that massive fle
[09:44] <bruenig> file*
[09:45] <loko555> Wapol: open a console, enter "updatedb" as root and then enter "locate xxx" where x is the name of your program
[09:45] <DarkED> bruenig: i have the target partition setup already, its smaller than this one, but large enough
[09:45] <KeithWeisshar> the dvd doesn't boot at all
[09:45] <KeithWeisshar> it was burned but it doesn't boot at all
[09:45] <bruenig> DarkED, are you going to fresh install or just copy over all of the files?
[09:46] <KeithWeisshar> and it appears blank when inserted
[09:46] <DarkED> one last question, im running nautilus as root (sudo) to move these files, will they retain permissions?
[09:46] <DarkED> bruenig: no no, im moving this ubuntu install from its old partition to an empty partition
[09:46] <KeithWeisshar> my dvd is a memorex dvd-r
[09:46] <bruenig> DarkED, by which I mean, are you going to fresh install and then overwrite or just copy over to a blank partition.
[09:46] <bruenig> oh
[09:46] <bruenig> o,m
[09:46] <bruenig> ok
[09:46] <bruenig> !enter
[09:46] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[09:47] <DarkED> bruenig: then im gonna format this partition and install fedora 5 on it, only reason im doing it is b/c this is the larger partition and i cant resize and fedora needs this space
[09:47] <bruenig> DarkED, i am interested to see if that will work. And as far as the permissions are concerned all the permissions should be retained according to this part of the how to "
[09:47] <bruenig> 'cvpfz' are the options we give to tar, like 'create archive' (obviously),
[09:47] <bruenig> 'preserve permissions'(to keep the same permissions on everything the same), and 'gzip' to keep the size down."
[09:47] <DarkED> if i resized i would need to make massive changes to the partition table and i would lose about 20gig of data
[09:48] <DarkED> lol its copying 200,000 some files atm :D
[09:49] <DarkED> add to the 70,00 i alread copied
[09:49] <DarkED> 70,000 even, lol
[09:49] <Krpano> how do i check which partition the bootloader is installed ?
[09:49] <Krpano> which disk
[09:49] <Krpano> *
[09:49] <PKR_> where are all the programs installed on ubuntu? like c:\programs in windows?
[09:49] <DarkED> Krpano: it should be installed to just /dev/hda, which is your mbr
[09:50] <byen> Guys, I can only mount usb drives using sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd.. how can mi auto mount them.. any suggestions
[09:50] <DarkED> Krpano: try running grub-conf
[09:50] <Krpano> yes...but at the instalation Ubuntu installed at hda....but the OS is installed at sda
[09:50] <DarkED> Krpano: ahh you are sata... sorry i dunno dude
[09:50] <Krpano> ok.thx...:)
[09:50] <ic56> PKR_: the executables are in /bin and /usr/bin
[09:50] <artzneo> hola
[09:51] <artzneo> alguien ah tenido problemas al actualizar kernell?
[09:51] <PKR_> ic56: im installing a program and it asks me where i want it.. should i put it in usr/bin?
[09:52] <ic56> PKR_: however, unlike windows, non-executable components of a program do *not* go in teh same directory as the executable.  This appears more complicated to newbies but makes invocation faster and administration easier because things are better classified
[09:52] <ic56> PKR_: what is the default that it's offering you?
[09:52] <KeithWeisshar> the disc is bad
[09:53] <KeithWeisshar> it's a memorex dvd-r
[09:53] <PKR_> ic56: it doesnt offer anything
[09:54] <SeraVitae> could anyone point me in the direction of the ubuntu .config file for 2.6.15-26-386?
[09:54] <EoF>  Hi, somebody knows if is there an "ubuntu" theme for the maemo 2.0?
[09:54] <PKR_> or i think it is offering a folder on the desktop
[09:54] <ic56> PKR_: the reason I ask is because the question might mean not where the executable is to go but in which hierarchy the package as a whole should go.
[09:54] <KeithWeisshar> the memorex dvd-r is actually cmc magnetics
[09:54] <ic56> PKR_: tell me the exact question and the exact folder name it's offering
[09:54] <jes-o-mat> SeraVitae: kernel config are located in /boot/config-*

[09:56] <thessem> Anybody here know anything about mdadm?

[09:57] <jes-o-mat> thessem: meta-question...
[09:57] <Wapol> is there any method to make wine automatically open the .exe programme when i click on it?
[09:57] <KeithWeisshar> i have already deleted the iso after burning but the dvd doesn't work
[09:57] <thessem> meta-question?
[09:57] <KeithWeisshar> is there any way to undelete the iso on ntfs
[09:58] <jes-o-mat> mdadm is well documented and there are a   lots of pages to read first
[09:58] <thessem> jes-o-mat: I have read everything I can find about mdadm
[09:58] <Wapol> erm is there any method to make wine automatically open the .exe programme when i click on it?
[09:58] <Wapol> someone please tell me
[09:58] <thessem> jes-o-mat: and googling my question  turns up nothing
[09:58] <commctrl> thessem, which is why you should ask your real question
[09:59] <ic56> thessem: sometimes a question you think is specific to an app can be unswered, at least partially by people unfamiliar with the app because they recognize that your problem is more general or system-related.  Don't be lazy.  Compose a more detailed question
[09:59] <neuro-> So I should go with the "D-Link 	DWL-G510 rev C1 *" sourced from: http://ralink.rapla.net/

[10:00] <Wapol> help please
[10:00] <Wapol> erm is there any method to make wine automatically open the .exe programme when i click on it?
[10:00] <liquidten2> Wapol: Right click the .exe file, then choose open with, then click Add, and then type in wine.
[10:00] <sorush20> hi guys what do I have to install for qt headers/
[10:01] <Wapol> type in??
[10:01] <ic56> !info qt
[10:01] <ubotu> Package qt does not exist in dapper
[10:01] <ic56> !qt
[10:01] <ubotu> qt is the Q toolkit, which forms the base of KDE and a lot of other applications. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package.
[10:01] <thessem> Okay, whenever I try to make a 5 disk raid 5 array with mdadm, it always lists 6 devices, the second last one being marked as "removed" and the last one being the last device I specified in the create raid command. It considers the last one specified as a spare, even though I specified no spares and 5 active devices, and seems to want to embark on a 3000 minute long rebuild proccess
[10:01] <leks> Anyone aware where mono.pc is included?
[10:01] <thessem> anyone able to help
[10:01] <leks> what package?
[10:01] <Wapol> ok
[10:01] <thessem> or point me to help?
[10:02] <Wapol> i get it
[10:02] <Wapol> but must i do that everytime i start the .exe file?
[10:03] <liquidten2> Wapol:  No.  If you right click the .exe, then click Properties, then open with, then add, then type in wine, it'll be permanent.
[10:03] <ic56> thessem: well-written question.  If you don't get a reply, post it again in a few hours
[10:04] <linux2> any ubuntu devs here?
[10:04] <linux2> cause i need to ask a question of you
[10:04] <neuro-> lol ic56
[10:04] <liquidten2> Just remember that for 95% of Windows programs there is a Linux program that does the same thing, and that windows programs running in linux are much slower and much more unstable than running a genuine linux program.
[10:04] <thessem> ic56: Is there a better place I can ask it, as I have been trying to work this out for the past 4-5 hours, and I really just want a answer
[10:04] <ic56> !raid
[10:04] <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
[10:04] <sorush20> libqt3-mt-dev is installed but I keep getting the same error that it can not be found..
[10:04] <tibbe> how come sub directories of /usrt/lib aren't searched for .so files?
[10:06] <liquidten2> tibbe:  No program should be storing libraries in a sub directory of /usr/lib.    At least not in mine, all of the libraries are in /usr/lib, and the sub directories just contain other files, like icons and such.
[10:07] <Virtuaal> if I have some files on desktop, with long names and there are many icons then desktop is kind of ugly. Is there some way to fix this?

[10:09] <tibbe> liquidten2, ok, the library in question is for the Neko virtual machine, it also has some none .so file (i.e. libraries but in the VM format), should they also go in /usr/lib?

[10:12] <TheThingsThatWer> Hikaru79: i tried that, it didn't really uninstall it
[10:12] <Hikaru79> How so?
[10:12] <Hikaru79> Perhaps you have apache2, not apache
[10:13] <TheThingsThatWer> thats what i said
[10:13] <Hikaru79> So it would be: sudo apt-get remove apache2
[10:13] <Hikaru79> Oh, sorry

[10:15] <Hikaru79> TheThingsThatWer: In what way is it not uninstalled? Does /etc/init.d/apache start still work?

[10:20] <Monkey-D-Luffy> hi
[10:20] <sanmarcos> tibbe: huh?
[10:20] <Monkey-D-Luffy> what player would you recommend for ubuntu?
[10:20] <ic56> thessem: bs is the block size.  If you know that your disk uses bigger block sizes, then specify something other than 1024.  Actually,
[10:21] <lawine> Monkey-D-Luffy: player for what?
[10:21] <Monkey-D-Luffy> like to play wmv file movie files etc
[10:21] <LoneShadow> nilesh892003: it dosnt work on my firefox, but only on IE
[10:21] <LoneShadow> which browser are you using on ubuntu ?
[10:21] <Monkey-D-Luffy> .wmv .mov .wma .mp3
[10:21] <ic56> thessem: because a kernel call needs to be made for each block, specifying bigger block sizes, even if the underlying hardware doeesn't support them, can improve speed by reducing teh number of context switches.  Upto some maximum, the kernel will provide buffering.
[10:21] <Monkey-D-Luffy> what player would you recommend
[10:22] <netsui> mode netsui +d
[10:22] <nilesh892003> real player
[10:22] <ic56> thessem: try 8k.  Should be pretty fast
[10:22] <Monkey-D-Luffy> anything other than real player??
[10:22] <lawine> Monkey-D-Luffy: mplayer works for me, or VLC
[10:22] <Monkey-D-Luffy> mplayer?
[10:22] <Monkey-D-Luffy> a link ?

[10:22] <Monkey-D-Luffy> oo
[10:22] <ic56> thessem: ok, I think that's it
[10:22] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ok
[10:22] <thessem> ic56: with the bs switch, can I just specify 8K?
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> which would you recommend
[10:23] <lawine> (google is not a player!)
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> xine totem mplayer or xine
[10:23] <ic56> thessem: yes, bs=8k is valid syntax
[10:23] <nilesh892003> i have xine
[10:23] <sanmarcos> mplayer and xine are the same shit, same engine
[10:23] <sanmarcos> totem uses the xine engine, or gstreamer
[10:23] <nilesh892003> it works on other sites
[10:23] <ic56> thessem: bs = BlockSize
[10:23] <sanmarcos> basically they are all the same
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> a vote??
[10:23] <sanmarcos> mplayer probably a little more crude but powerful
[10:23] <nilesh892003> i can play online stream on other sites
[10:23] <nilesh892003> but on www.musicindiaonline.com
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> mplayer : 1
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> vote
[10:23] <nilesh892003> it shows port 554 is not accessible
[10:23] <LoneShadow> I pretty much use mplayer for my mythtv
[10:23] <Monkey-D-Luffy> any1 else?
[10:23] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: i suggest you go checkout the ubuntu wiki before wasting everybody's time here
[10:24] <Monkey-D-Luffy> sorry to trouble you
[10:24] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ok
[10:24] <LoneShadow> plays tv recordings, avi files, vcd, dvds, .. :D
[10:24] <thessem> ic56: Thanks. Even if that doesn't work at least I can be sure it isn't hd related
[10:24] <ic56> right on! The radio is playing Pink Floyd.
[10:24] <ic56> thessem: yw!
[10:25] <LoneShadow> can someone help nilesh, I dont think the port is an issue
[10:25] <thessem> Does anybody know if there is any way to change the way the kernel assigns harddisks to the sda, sdb, sdc type things?
[10:26] <sanmarcos> thessem: nope, automatic, but udev can make links
[10:26] <thessem> sanmarcos: Links?
[10:26] <sanmarcos> thessem: just a matter of creating rules
[10:26] <thessem> sanmarcos: Where can I find some info about that?
[10:26] <sanmarcos> thessem: yeah, for example, plug in your ipod, kernel assigns it to sda, or whatever, but Udev can detect the ipod in any port of the comp or wherever the kernel assigned it and rename it to /dev/ipod
[10:26] <ic56> thessem: actually, I think there might be a way.  You need to read up on kernel boot options.
[10:26] <sanmarcos> thessem: udev rules
[10:27] <sanmarcos> good luck
[10:27] <TheThingsThatWer> ok, i've typed in apt-get remove apache2 and it didn't really uninstall it, how would i go about uninstalling it in the command prompt?
[10:27] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: didnt really uninstall it?
[10:27] <LoneShadow> nilesh892003 check #ubuntu-in
[10:28] <lillpelle> TheThingsThatWer: maybe sudo apt-get remove apache2
[10:28] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: well, it uninstalled like 40KB of data, which i KNOW isn't the size of apache2, and when i connect to the server through a browser it still pops up with the Apache logo
[10:28] <sanmarcos> apache2 is a metapackage afaik
[10:28] <loko555> anyone knows what this means: mkdir: could not create /usr/local/man File exists
[10:29] <LoneShadow> if you used apt-get to install, you can do "apt-get --purge remove apaceh2:
[10:29] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: try dpkg -l apache|grep ii
[10:29] <LoneShadow> "
[10:29] <BrianG> how do i get qmake for QT4 in ubuntu?
[10:29] <rixth> How can I capture the output of ffmpeg to a file?
[10:29] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: dpkg -l apache*|grep ii sorry then apt-get remove --purge such package
[10:29] <rixth> Like, the text it displays.
[10:29] <sanmarcos> BrianG: try qt4-dev-tools
[10:29] <loko555> oh, found the fault
[10:30] <BrianG> sanmarcos: i have
[10:30] <sanmarcos> BrianG: not there?
[10:30] <BrianG> right
[10:30] <sanmarcos> try apt-cache search qmake
[10:31] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: when i did that it sayd o newly install, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded
[10:31] <sanmarcos> BrianG: dpkg -L qt4-dev-tools to list its contents
[10:31] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: did you install apache from source?
[10:31] <nilesh892003> hello
[10:31] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: if dpkg -l apache*|grep ^ii returns a list, then you have those packages installed
[10:32] <nilesh892003> there is any tv playing software for ubuntu
[10:32] <nilesh892003> ???????
[10:32] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: tvtime, mythtv, xawtv
[10:32] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: google!!, apt-cache search
[10:32] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: ah, sorry, i misunderstood you earlier i believe, so just uninstall all of those individual packages?
[10:32] <nilesh892003> i know
[10:32] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: it really depends on what your tv card is
[10:32] <nilesh892003> i installed xawtv
[10:32] <nilesh892003> but how to scan
[10:32] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: ii denotes that a package is installed
[10:32] <nilesh892003> for indian cable
[10:32] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: that was not your initial question
[10:32] <rixth> How can I capture the output of ffmpeg to a file? ffmpeg > log does not work, nor does ffmpeg >> log
[10:32] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: huh, no idea on that
[10:32] <nilesh892003> ya
[10:32] <BrianG> sanmarcos: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19084
[10:32] <LoneShadow> nilesh892003: for Indian cable, someone has to write a grabber for tv listings
[10:32] <nilesh892003> k
[10:33] <sanmarcos> rixth: the output of ffmpeg?
[10:33] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: that did it, thanks :-D
[10:33] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: sure
[10:33] <rixth> sanmarcos, yeah, the text that it outputs about the conversion process.
[10:33] <sanmarcos> rixth: be specific, what your full command is, what you are trying to do, etc
[10:33] <sanmarcos> rixth: try ffmpeg 2&1> out.txt
[10:33] <TheThingsThatWer> lol, so who can tell me a good program to use to set up a file server?
[10:34] <ic56> thessem you there?
[10:34] <sanmarcos> rixth: ehh sorry the & should go just before the >
[10:34] <Leeif> !bootsplash
[10:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about bootsplash - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:34] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: file server? ftp, web? samba?
[10:34] <rixth> "ffmpeg -i /home/rixth/file.mpg -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 -y /tmp/converter.mpg" is the command.
[10:34] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: proftpd, wuftpd. depends on what protocl you want
[10:34] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: ftp preferably
[10:34] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: alright, thx
[10:34] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: proftpd is good
[10:35] <BrianG> sanmarcos: no sign of qmake in the package
[10:35] <sanmarcos> rixth: add 21&> out.txt
[10:35] <sanmarcos> BrianG: apt-cache search qmake should give yout he package name
[10:35] <sanmarcos> rixth: and #bash would be more helpful for your kind of question
[10:35] <TheThingsThatWer> alright, i hate to ask so many questions, but it's been SO long since i've used Ubuntu, how do i enable universal in command prompt?
[10:35] <rixth> sanmarcos, that does make it go to the logfile, but the very last line of the log is "Unable for find a suitable output format for '21'" which is a ffmpeg error
[10:36] <rixth> When running " ffmpeg -i /home/rixth/file.mpg -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 -y ~/converter.mpg 21&> output.log"
[10:36] <sanmarcos> rixth: "ffmpeg -i /home/rixth/file.mpg -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 -y /tmp/converter.mpg" 21&> out
[10:36] <Leeif> i have the kubuntu bootsplash (kubuntu logo with progress bar and status text) and want to change it to the ubuntu splash (i uninstalled kde)
[10:36] <sanmarcos> rixth: mind the quotes, and check #bash
[10:36] <BrianG> sanmarcos: it does, but theres nothing qmake int he qt4 package
[10:36] <Monkey-D-Luffy> hi
[10:36] <thessem> ic56: Yes, did you say something, if you did, I probably missed it, and I'm using command line irc and cant scroll up (i dont know how)
[10:37] <sanmarcos> BrianG: weird, honestly dont do too much QT dev, you could try qt3, or just ask in #qt they might have a better answer, if not, you are pretty much hosed
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> when i put a thumbdrive and i try to access it it give me this error
[10:37] <rixth> sanmarcos, when I check the log is says "bash: ffmpeg -i /home/rixth/file.mpg -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 -y ~/converter.mpg: No such file or directory" going to bash now...
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> Unable to mount the selected volume. The volume is probably in a format that cannot be mounted.
[10:37] <BrianG> no, i need qt4
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> what does it need?
[10:37] <thessem> ic56: Nup, zeroing didn't work
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> mean
[10:37] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: is it a windows thumbdrive?
[10:37] <BrianG> thanks anyhow sanmarcos
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm
[10:37] <ic56> thessem: didn't say anything -- was waiting for you to come back.  I wanted to say that you might be able to remap /dev/hdc in your BIOS
[10:37] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: execute dmesg, check where it is in /dev
[10:37] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i dont think so
[10:38] <Monkey-D-Luffy> what do you mean?
[10:38] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: what kind of thumbdrive is it then?
[10:38] <sanmarcos> do you use it in windows?
[10:38] <Monkey-D-Luffy> yes
[10:38] <sanmarcos> I am trying to determine the file type
[10:38] <nilesh892003> how to configure gmail in evolution
[10:38] <sanmarcos> ok so it is vfat
[10:38] <thessem> ic56: How? it is already drive number 0, in the first sata port of the first controller, yet it is still sdc
[10:38] <Monkey-D-Luffy> what do you mean by dmesg
[10:38] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: google should help you, if not gmails help
[10:38] <TheThingsThatWer> how would do i enable universe and multiverse with the command prompt?
[10:38] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: as root execute that in a terminal
[10:38] <ic56> thessem: to search your IRC client's log for lines containing a keyword, use /lastlog   eg: /last ic56 will list messages from me or from others that mentioned me in their text
[10:38] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ok
[10:38] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:39] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: check the device name, it should be "sda", "sdb" or something around that
[10:39] <Monkey-D-Luffy>  sda: Current: sense key: Medium Error
[10:39] <Monkey-D-Luffy> [4304226.704000]      Additional sense: Unrecovered read error
[10:39] <Monkey-D-Luffy> [4304226.704000]  end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 256
[10:39] <Monkey-D-Luffy> [4304226.712000]  sd 2:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x8000002
[10:39] <Monkey-D-Luffy> [4304226.712000]  sda: Current: sense key: Medium Error
[10:39] <sanmarcos> yeah, dont paste so much in a channel, >3 lines is too much
[10:39] <ic56> thessem: spend some time in your BIOS config menu.  Alternately, maybe the mboard manual is wrong and drive 0 belongs in a different slot than the manual says...
[10:40] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: i'm using command prompt only... so i don't have any secondary programs to open up in a GUI :-\
[10:40] <sergiol_elsewher> hello
[10:40] <ic56> thessem: o-o
[10:40] <nilesh892003> how to configure tv card in ubuntu
[10:40] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ouch
[10:40] <nilesh892003> ?
[10:40] <Monkey-D-Luffy> shouldnt have pasted the whole thing
[10:40] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: try (as root) fdisk -l /dev/sda, it seems your thumbdrive is fscked up, you might have to format it again
[10:40] <sonny> i need a terminal emulator like  yakuake under gnome  who can tell me the software like it?
[10:40] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: what tv card
[10:40] <J-_> how do i format my NTFS external hard drive to fat32?
[10:40] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: use a text based editor
[10:40] <thessem> ic56: I'm sure its right, because grub talks to it via (hd0,0)
[10:40] <nilesh892003> pixelview play tv pro
[10:40] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: nano, vim, mcedit
[10:41] <Monkey-D-Luffy> how do i format the thumbdrive?
[10:41] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: no idea, google pixelview..... linux, should provide you with answers
[10:41] <nilesh892003> i had configured driver for that
[10:41] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: good question. what does fdisk -l say?
[10:41] <ic56> thessem: ah. yes, that is proof enough.  Oh well.  I wonder how it comes to be hdc though.  Strange
[10:41] <sanmarcos> nilesh892003: then it works?
[10:41] <CarlFK> Where does Ekiga save the settings?
[10:41] <nilesh892003> but dont have any good programm to work with that
[10:41] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ouch
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> here goes
[10:42] <peabody> I'v got a grub problem
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> Usage: fdisk [-b SSZ]  [-u]  DISK     Change partition table
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy>        fdisk -l [-b SSZ]  [-u]  DISK  List partition table(s)
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy>        fdisk -s PARTITION           Give partition size(s) in blocks
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy>        fdisk -v                     Give fdisk version
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> Here DISK is something like /dev/hdb or /dev/sda
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> and PARTITION is something like /dev/hda7
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> -u: give Start and End in sector (instead of cylinder) units
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> -b 2048: (for certain MO disks) use 2048-byte sectors
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> phew
[10:42] <nilesh892003> tvime doesn`t scans channels
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> didnt get kicked
[10:42] <nilesh892003> and i dont know how to do it in xawtv
[10:42] <peabody> I just install unbuntu dapper over my previous fedora core 4 drives
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm
[10:42] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: -l is a lowercase L
[10:42] <peabody> It was an lvm setup that I kept
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ok
[10:42] <Monkey-D-Luffy> wait
[10:42] <sanmarcos> CarlFK: gconf probably
[10:42] <peabody> Everything seems to be okay, but grub won't boot.  It prints to the screen continuously
[10:43] <CarlFK> sanmarcos: yep - thanks
[10:43] <J-_> how do i format my NTFS external hard drive to fat32?
[10:43] <Monkey-D-Luffy> nope
[10:43] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i doesnt respond
[10:43] <h3x0r> What is the deal with lighttpd -7 conflicts with debian
[10:43] <Monkey-D-Luffy> it doesnt respond if i type fdisk -l
[10:43] <Monkey-D-Luffy> so how do i reformat the thumb?
[10:44] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: hmm, fucked up seriously, might want to consider just throwing the disk away
[10:44] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: or use dd to wipe it clean
[10:44] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm...
[10:44] <Monkey-D-Luffy> sound crude
[10:44] <nilesh892003> hello i can play tv with xawtv but no sound with that
[10:44] <ic56> Monkey-D-Luffy: did you remember to use sudo?
[10:44] <sanmarcos> J-_: mkfs.vfat
[10:44] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i plugged it in yesterday and i worked
[10:44] <nilesh892003> what should to do now
[10:44] <ompaul> !language
[10:44] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:44] <Monkey-D-Luffy> sudo?
[10:44] <sanmarcos> J-_: but try gparted for a nice gui
[10:44] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: really?, huh, weird, I have no more answers then
[10:44] <ic56> Monkey-D-Luffy: sudo fdisk -l
[10:45] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i plugged it in yesterday and it worked
[10:45] <sanmarcos> oh obviosuly
[10:45] <Monkey-D-Luffy> wait
[10:45] <sanmarcos> fdisk requires privileges
[10:45] <livingdaylig> whats happening? Yakuake, k3b, Kaffeine - none work?!
[10:45] <J-_> k cool thanks, will the 300gb hdd be supported with fat32?
[10:45] <nilesh892003> hello what about tv sound in xawtv
[10:45] <Monkey-D-Luffy> Disk /dev/hda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes

[10:46] <sanmarcos> not hda
[10:46] <Flannel> !paste
[10:46] <Monkey-D-Luffy> dats what i shows if i type sudo fdisk -l
[10:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:46] <sanmarcos> sda Monkey-D-Luffy
[10:46] <ompaul> Monkey-D-Luffy, please do not paste in this channel we have paste.ubuntu-nl.org for that
[10:46] <Flannel> J-_: are you using windowsXP with it? or what?
[10:46] <sanmarcos> J-_: not with winxp
[10:46] <Monkey-D-Luffy> oo
[10:46] <sanmarcos> J-_: and I would seriously consider another file system
[10:46] <Monkey-D-Luffy> sorry
[10:46] <Monkey-D-Luffy> but it worked yesterday!!
[10:47] <Monkey-D-Luffy> do you think i should restart the comp and try again?
[10:47] <sanmarcos> J-_: EXT3, XFS, JFS. EXT3 can be accessed natively on Windows, it works great
[10:47] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: wont change a thing
[10:47] <Flannel> sanmarcos: no they cant
[10:47] <sanmarcos> Flannel: www.fs-driver.org
[10:47] <Monkey-D-Luffy> ok...
[10:47] <Monkey-D-Luffy> so...
[10:47] <rixth> "error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.50: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" << why would one user get that, and another not?
[10:47] <sanmarcos> Flannel: yes, I've been using it for years, works excellent, not a flaw, and native
[10:47] <Flannel> sanmarcos: that's hardly natively, now is it?
[10:47] <Monkey-D-Luffy> fd driver?
[10:47] <Monkey-D-Luffy> fs driver?
[10:47] <sanmarcos> Flannel: native in the sense that you dojnt need ex2splore or whatever it was
[10:47] <Flannel> sanmarcos: and, you're one of the lucky ones, most people have nothing but problems
[10:48] <sanmarcos> Flannel: do you have problems with it?
[10:48] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm
[10:48] <Flannel> J-_: anyway, yes, 300GB is fine for FAT, unless youre using an older version of windows
[10:48] <sanmarcos> Flannel: well it doesnt work if the ext3 needs a serious fsck, but overall it works
[10:48] <ic56> Monkey-D-Luffy: fdisk -l will only report drives that are partitioned.  So it's not helpful for corrupt disks.
[10:48] <sanmarcos> rixth: it cant find a library
[10:48] <Monkey-D-Luffy> o
[10:48] <sanmarcos> ic56: I was trying to find out where the partition was
[10:48] <rixth> sanmarcos, I know that much =) But why would only one user her it?
[10:48] <Monkey-D-Luffy> im talking about a thumbdrive
[10:48] <rixth> get it, rather
[10:49] <sanmarcos> rixth: because he or she (yes...) might not have the right library path set
[10:49] <rixth> sanmarcos, how can I set the paths?
[10:49] <sanmarcos> rixth: i.e that library might be in /usr/local and that might not be in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, an environemntal variable
[10:49] <Monkey-D-Luffy> is there no solution?? : (
[10:50] <sanmarcos> richiefrich: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH if i remeber correctly
[10:50] <sanmarcos> but might want to check it with echo first to see if its already there
[10:50] <livingdaylig> got a fresh and clean install of Dapper, can't seem to install a kde app. Yakuake, K3B, Kaffeine, all appear to install but simply don't launch
[10:50] <ic56> sanmarcos: Yes, I realize that.  Remember that fdisk -l is essentially equivalent to cat /proc/partitions .  If the kernel cannot autodetect teh partition table for a disk, it doesn't show up there and you have to fall back on personal knowledge of the hardware layout
[10:50] <richiefrich> ??
[10:50] <thessem> ic56: Okay, now that all the disks are zero-d the recovery that always happens is only going to take an hour, so after that, it will just be an array that has had a failed disk and a spare has kicked in, so I'm happy
[10:50] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i think i see the problem
[10:50] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i plugged it into my windows computer
[10:50] <sanmarcos> ic56: yeah, but he should try reformating the whole disk again, and if it doesnt work then just throw it away, or maybe windows can do some voodoo to get it to work, though i doubt it
[10:50] <richiefrich> sanmarcos  u didnt mean me.. i'm thinking
[10:51] <richiefrich> :P
[10:51] <Monkey-D-Luffy> and it says the thumbdrive needs to format
[10:51] <livingdaylig> hello? can somoene advise me?
[10:51] <sanmarcos> richiefrich: ah no, stupid tab completion
[10:51] <Monkey-D-Luffy> but when i try to format it
[10:51] <Monkey-D-Luffy> it gives an error
[10:51] <sanmarcos> rixth: anywyays, I hope my answer helped
[10:51] <ic56> thessem: you're easy to please :-).  Sorry we couldn't find a better solution.  You can still try again later.
[10:51] <richiefrich> lol.. tis ok
[10:51] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i think the thumdrive is screwed
[10:51] <Maskeye> I'll think about it
[10:51] <livingdaylig> before my question above disappears and someone asks me to repeat
[10:51] <livingdaylig> hello
[10:51] <Monkey-D-Luffy> anyway to save it?
[10:51] <Flannel> Monkey-D-Luffy: format it, if that's what it says it needs
[10:52] <sanmarcos> Monkey-D-Luffy: format it
[10:52] <J-_> sanmarcos: can i ask for your opinion then? all my files are stored on xp currently(did a back up). now i want to format the external hdd to a filesystem so i can use both linux and xp with it. what's the better filesystem to use, since there are valued files in the backed up data.
[10:52] <ic56> sanmarcos: by reformatting, you imply partitioning, right?
[10:52] <Monkey-D-Luffy> i tried but it gives an error
[10:52] <Flannel> J-_: FAT32 will be fine
[10:52] <sanmarcos> ic56: no, just wiping the whole disk with dd, then creating a 100% vfat partition on it
[10:52] <livingdaylig> Ok, i find this frustrating. When i try to grab someone's attention i'm told to just put the question. But whenever i just put my question and wait for a response it disappears like the credits of Star Wars off the end of the screen
[10:52] <sanmarcos> J-_: as a filesystem FAT32 is very antiquated, but it will work fine. Though Windows XP has some issues with disks >130gb, might want to google
[10:53] <Flannel> livingdaylig: it's alright, people see it ;)
[10:53] <cotroler> I have just installed Enemy Territory for linux (opengl) and i have got no sound....do i need to install drivers
[10:53] <dooglus> livingdaylig: what's your question?
[10:53] <oskude> livingdaylig: well, thats life, use the *force (*patience)
[10:53] <sanmarcos> J-_: its either FAT32 or EXT3, I'll go with FAT
[10:53] <Flannel> sanmarcos, J-_: no, They can read just fine.
[10:53] <livingdaylig> haha, you see now someone says what is the question. Flannel obviously they don't
[10:53] <Monkey-D-Luffy> erm is there any other third party software to format the thumbdrive? windows seems to give an error
[10:53] <sanmarcos> Flannel: unless its the drive Windows is running on, right?
[10:53] <livingdaylig> dooglus: my kde apps are not working
[10:53] <sanmarcos> J-_: if you want more information, check the Excellent comparison of file systems on the english wikipedia
[10:53] <dooglus> livingdaylig: I could scroll back up and find it, but the writing's awfully small up there.
[10:53] <Flannel> sanmarcos: if windows was running on it, it would have to be NTFS.
[10:53] <ic56> sanmarcos: yeah, so long as you do create a partition, it can be autodetected.  If you don't partition, the kernel cannot autodetect.
[10:54] <Monkey-D-Luffy> help?
[10:54] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: how much do you know about proftpd?
[10:54] <Flannel> Monkey-D-Luffy: GParted can do it
[10:54] <sanmarcos> ic56: i am not sure it works quite that way, its not the kernel that mounts your thumb drive automatically
[10:54] <dooglus> livingdaylig: this channel is for ubuntu stuff.  kde stuff is in #kubuntu - maybe that's why you're not getting help.
[10:54] <J-_> k cool thanks, i'll check'r out =D
[10:54] <oskude> livingdaylig: how do you think we can help with such small info ?
[10:54] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: dont use it extensively, it just works out of the box, but I have configured it quite well
[10:54] <Monkey-D-Luffy> hmm i think the thumbdrive is screwed :(
[10:55] <livingdaylig> dooglus: i made a fresh clean install of Dapper; but Yakuake, Kaffeine and K3B don't run
[10:55] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: well, i have looked through the manual pages and i can't find anything about configuring username and password
[10:55] <Monkey-D-Luffy> but i dont remember dropping it :(
[10:55] <oskude> livingdaylig: you could try running the programs from terminal and pastin the errors you get...
[10:55] <sanmarcos> ic56: the kernel will recognize the usb device, then it will try to use scsi emulation for the whatever volumes there are on it. Its a combination of hal/udev/dbus and gnome-volume-manager that makes the magic work
[10:55] <ic56> sanmarcos: for example, my /dev/hdb contains a single filesystem.  There is not /dev/hdb1 There is no partition table.  Just one big filesystem starting at block 0.  mount -l doesn't report that drive.
[10:55] <oskude> livingdaylig: *pastebin
[10:55] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: username and password are just your regular unix accounts
[10:55] <dooglus> livingdaylig: fresh clean installs of ubuntu dapper don't have any of those apps
[10:55] <livingdaylig> dooglus: that is a silly thing to say. If i go to #kubuntu then they'll say its because i'm in ubuntu and should install kubuntu
[10:55] <Flannel> ic56: that's because it's not mounted, as it's not partitioned
[10:55] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: oh, lol, thx
[10:56] <dooglus> livingdaylig: you're trying to run k3b in GNOME?
[10:56] <sanmarcos> ic56: really? It has to have a main partition, it should be /dev/hdb1 what you mount, not /dev/hdb as it is the device itself
[10:56] <livingdaylig> dooglus: like i put initially, after the clean install i installed some things as one does, including the 3 i mentioned
[10:56] <peabody> I cannot get grub to boot my system, can anyone help?
[10:56] <livingdaylig> dooglus: yes, i always have done
[10:56] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: man pages are not usually nice to newcomers, try googling for proftpd configuration, there are nice examples. If not, I can provide you with my configuration
[10:56] <livingdaylig> dooglus: i used yakuake only yesterday in gnome
[10:56] <peabody> It just streams the word grub all arcoss the screen
[10:56] <livingdaylig> dooglus: and k3b
[10:57] <dooglus> livingdaylig: what do you see when you run 'k3b' from a terminal?  (or from a konsole)?
[10:57] <ic56> Flannel: incorrect.  fdisk -l doesn't list things which are mounted.  It lists partitions that can be read from partition tables.  If you clobber the partition table to squeeze an extra track out of your disk, /proc/partitions cannot see them.   mounting works fine, /etc/fstab works fine.  It's just that the kernel cannot autodetect
[10:57] <oskude> livingdaylig: could you please start them from terminal ? so we can have some error messages... that "it just doesnt work" never helped anyone :/
[10:57] <ic56> sanmarcos: yes, I mount /dev/hdb directly.  I'm cheap!
[10:57] <livingdaylig> oskude: there is nothing to paste. The apps appear to install using either apt-get or synaptic but its when i click on them in Applications that they just don't come up
[10:57] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: lol, don't suppose you would know how to make Windows XP notice it as a network drive would you (sorry for bugging you so much!)
[10:57] <oskude> grrrrrrr
[10:58] <peabody> I am desperate, can anyone help me troubleshoot grub to boot my system
[10:58] <dooglus> livingdaylig: what if you run them from a terminal?
[10:58] <dooglus> livingdaylig: instead of clicking the icon
[10:58] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: network drive? that is totally different
[10:58] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: that is Samba, your linux comp will appear on your Workgroup stuff in XP, and you can share printers, folders, drives, etc
[10:58] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: i'm a complete and total idiot when it comes to networking... :'(
[10:58] <oskude> livingdaylig: applications - accessories - terminal, type there k3b and press enter
[10:59] <sanmarcos> ftp is file transfer protocol, different to the "nice" stuff you see in xp
[10:59] <sanmarcos> ic56: well I would guess the devs would have made it so that devices with a single partition are able to use such shortcut
[10:59] <Flannel> TheThingsThatWer: proftpd uses the regular user accounts
[11:00] <sanmarcos> ic56: but its better to use /dev/hdb1 and get used to the numbers. You wouldnt want to confuse yourself when doing risky stuff (dd, file systems, partitions, fdisk) etc.
[11:00] <dooglus> is there an irc client or a terminal program which scrolls the text up like the beginning of starwars?  that would be cool
[11:00] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: apt-get install samba if you want the Windows way
[11:00] <sanmarcos> dooglus: eh?
[11:00] <sanmarcos> dooglus: checkout cmatrix :(
[11:01] <sanmarcos> dooglus: or irssi if you want a text irc client
[11:01] <TheThingsThatWer> sanmarcos: and windows will notice it after that?
[11:01] <dooglus> sanmarcos: instead of scrolling the text straight up, make it get smaller, like it's going into the distance.  like in the opening scenes of star wars
[11:01] <sonny> i want to let a program auto run when i login,how can i accomplish it?
[11:01] <sanmarcos> TheThingsThatWer: yes, samba is prepared for that
[11:01] <dooglus> sanmarcos: a long time ago in a galaxy far away, etc
[11:01] <sanmarcos> dooglus: doubt you can do that in a terminal, but it can be easily accomplished in GTK using GtkHTML
[11:02] <sanmarcos> totally annoying, but it can be done if you know some GTK and C
[11:02] <dooglus> sanmarcos: GtkHTML just renders HTML doesn't it?
[11:02] <dooglus> sanmarcos: (badly)
[11:02] <sanmarcos> dooglus: yes, it would be the easier way to implement what you want
[11:02] <sanmarcos> but you could use QT or any other toolkit
[11:02] <Flannel> !tell TheThingsThatWer about samba
[11:02] <livingdaylig> oskude: dooglus, permission denied? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19085
[11:02] <sanmarcos> dooglus: anyways, besides from the bling bling, I dont see any logical or practical reasons for using that
[11:03] <mcphail> dooglus: telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
[11:03] <ic56> sanmarcos: no special code is needed to make /dev/hdb work as a filesystem.  /dev/hdb is just raw disk sectors /dev/hdb1 is more raw disk sectors but beginning at an offset specified by the partition table.  I agree that it's better to advise newbies to partition, then format a filesystem.  Which is why I was surprised when you said to format the whole disk.
[11:03] <dooglus> sanmarcos: there are none.  it's just that livingdaylig said his question was going into the distance like a starwars intro
[11:03] <sanmarcos> dooglus: I mean you could make it so when you scroll up the text widens, like the Os X dock does with its icons. But it would take some knowledge of advanced GUI proggramming whatever toolkit you are in
[11:03] <dooglus> sanmarcos: and I was wondering how that would be possible
[11:03] <oskude> livingdaylig: hmm, what are the permissions to that file ? "ls -lah /home/grasshopper/.kde"
[11:04] <oskude> livingdaylig: *folder
[11:04] <sanmarcos> ic56: :) anyways I think that thumb drive is doomed anyways.. they are so cheap these days, and flash memory isnt exaclty durable
[11:04] <livingdaylig> oskude: i don't know. Usuallly all i do is install something and run it
[11:04] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I wonder whether just applying an imagemagick filter over an existing app would work.  something in the window manager perhaps, like the XGL stuff does to make windows wobble/whatever?
[11:04] <sanmarcos> dooglus: huh?. XGL just uses OpenGl
[11:04] <oskude> livingdaylig: ... run this in terminal "ls -lah /home/grasshopper/.kde" and pastebin the result
[11:05] <sanmarcos> dooglus: you could do it in OpenGL if you wanted too, probably be the smartest choice, since you start from sracth and would not have to hack around Gtk or QT widgets
[11:05] <Leeif> oskude: how do i change my bootsplash screen?
[11:05] <dooglus> livingdaylig: what does "ls -ld /home/grasshopper/.kde" show?
[11:05] <oskude> Leeif: dunno, never done that...
[11:06] <sanmarcos> dooglus: just steal (err, use gpl code), an irc engine, and code a small GL app to do it. Knowledge of C, some math, and a good chunk of GL. You could do it easily
[11:06] <ic56> sanmarcos: you may be right.  Then again, we never found out if his partition table was corrupt.  The electronics may be fine -- just the formatting data may be corrupt.
[11:06] <sanmarcos> not even C, you could do it in Python if you wanted dooglus
[11:06] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I'm thinking that rather than write a new IRC app, I'd modify the compiz window manager (or whatever it's called) to add a new effect to 'star-wars-ify' any app
[11:06] <livingdaylig> oskude: dooglus, said "permission denied"
[11:06] <sanmarcos> ic56: indeed.. Gparted could easily fix that
[11:07] <ic56> sanmarcos: agreed
[11:07] <oskude> livingdaylig: ah of course, sorry, try "sudo ls -lah /home/grasshopper/.kde"
[11:07] <dooglus> livingdaylig: what does "ls -ld /home/grasshopper" show?
[11:07] <sanmarcos> dooglus: the window manager handles the entire window, not its contents
[11:07] <Flannel> guys, take the star wars IRC client to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:07] <sanmarcos> dooglus: you could make a window appear in such a way, but that is not what  you want
[11:07] <dooglus> oskude: he should have permission to list stuff in his own home directory!
[11:08] <Flannel> dooglus: it means he's run things with sudo, instead of gksudo or kdesu
[11:08] <oskude> dooglus: of course, if it where so, there wouldnt have been permission denien when running k3b...
[11:08] <dooglus> Flannel: I don't think that would ever make the command I asked him to run fail
[11:08] <Nilvio> hey 1 question
[11:08] <Flannel> dooglus: if he didn't have permission to read it, because it was owned by root, then yes, it would
[11:08] <sanmarcos> as root just sudo chown user:group /home/you/* -R and then chmod 770 * -R on it
[11:09] <dooglus> oskude: I'm thinking that ~ is writable but ~/.kde isn't.  but "ls -ld ~/.kde" shouldn't fail, even if root does own ~/.kde
[11:09] <Nilvio> my wow use 450/750 memory
[11:09] <sanmarcos> good settings, 775 if you want to  be more permissive
[11:09] <Nilvio> what i need to do if i want all memory to wow ?
[11:09] <livingdaylig> oskude: dooglus, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19086
[11:09] <sanmarcos> Nilvio: to wow?
[11:09] <oskude> livingdaylig: omg, how did you install k3b ?
[11:09] <J-_> ##linux
[11:09] <dooglus> livingdaylig: that's not the command I asked you to run.
[11:09] <J-_> er
[11:09] <J-_> sorry
[11:09] <Nilvio> when i play wow
[11:09] <dooglus> livingdaylig: can you copy and paste?  I wanted "ls -ld ~/.kde"
[11:09] <oskude> dooglus: but what i asked
[11:10] <ic56> Nilvio, sanmarcos: like, *wow* man! :-)
[11:10] <sanmarcos> ic56: totally dude
[11:10] <Nilvio> that use only 450/750
[11:10] <J-_> ment to go to that channel =\
[11:10] <livingdaylig> dooglus: sorry
[11:10] <sanmarcos> Nilvio: you want WoW to get more memory than average?
[11:10] <Nilvio> yes
[11:10] <sanmarcos> Nilvio: man nice
[11:11] <Jenkins> Could somebody tell me how to install linux-headers  using sudo apt-get install linux-headers. It shows a list of them but i cannot figure out how to select the one i want.
[11:11] <oskude> livingdaylig: well, the ~/.kde dir is owned by root, as you can see...
[11:11] <sanmarcos> Nilvio: as root nice can change the way the system grants resources to a specific process. I suggest you read the manpage first, then you could use the Gnome System Monitor to change the nice of a process
[11:11] <dooglus> livingdaylig: a "sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.kde" will fix your problem
[11:11] <Flannel> livingdaylig: You need to stop running graphical apps as root with sudo
[11:11] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: try uname -r
[11:11] <livingdaylig> dooglus: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19087
[11:11] <Jenkins> sanmarcos: what does uname -r do?
[11:11] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[11:12] <Nilvio> i use Gnome system
[11:12] <mcphail> Jenkins: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[11:12] <Jenkins> sanmarcos: thanks i'll try that
[11:12] <dooglus> Jenkins: it tells you your kernel version
[11:12] <sven> any tips on how to make a grub menu item that does not start gdm? (i'd like to be able to do a "quickboot" right to the console)
[11:12] <livingdaylig> oskude: any idea how that could have happened? i installed Dapper as i always do ; never had this happen?
[11:12] <Jenkins> says couldnt find package linux-headers-uname -r
[11:12] <dooglus> livingdaylig: probably running "sudo k3b" did it
[11:12] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: mind the quotes
[11:12] <Flannel> livingdaylig: you used sudo for a graphical app
[11:12] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: they are back ticks ``
[11:12] <Jenkins> what you mean mind the quotes?
[11:12] <dooglus> livingdaylig: some kde apps are buggy and don't work right with sudo
[11:12] <mcphail> Jenkins: copy the line exactly (with the backticks)
[11:13] <oskude> livingdaylig: have you been using sudo where youre not supposed to ?
[11:13] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) also does it
[11:13] <Jenkins> k
[11:13] <Flannel> livingdaylig: which is why you use gksudo or kdesu for graphical apps
[11:13] <livingdaylig> dooglus: i wouldn't have run sudo k3b
[11:13] <Jenkins> that did it thank you
[11:13] <dooglus> livingdaylig: "sudo <some other kde app>" then?
[11:13] <oskude> Flannel: what ? i cant run "X" apps withs sudo ? could you give me info on that ?
[11:13] <livingdaylig> dooglus: maybe it happened with yakuake, maybe
[11:14] <livingdaylig> dooglus: so the command line you gave me is the solution?
[11:14] <livingdaylig> dooglus: just punch that in?
[11:14] <dooglus> oskude: "X" apps are OK, as are GTK apps.  it's just KDE apps which aren't, I think
[11:14] <dooglus> livingdaylig: yup.
[11:14] <dooglus> livingdaylig: that will CHange OWNer Recursively to <you> and group to <you>
[11:14] <Flannel> QT has problems with sudo, which is why it's easier to just say "dont run graphical apps" because, using your special graphical sudo is NEVER going to cause problems
[11:15] <sanmarcos> Flannel: qt has problems with sudo?
[11:15] <Flannel> sanmarcos: yes.
[11:15] <livingdaylig> dooglus: i'm indebted - thank you soooooMUCH
[11:15] <dooglus> it's easier to say "just always log in as root" then you never need to use sudo or gksudo.
[11:15] <livingdaylig> To ALL of YOU
[11:15] <sanmarcos> Flannel: not having X credentials? I would try sux -c qtapp
[11:15] <Flannel> dooglus: no, that's the exact opposite.
[11:15] <oskude> Flannel: hmm, got any "written down" info on that ?
[11:15] <cotroler> Azureus needs JRE...I have Java installed...is Java and JRE the same????
[11:16] <sanmarcos> cotroler: for your purposes, yes
[11:16] <Locke> does anyone know anything about installing a Ventrilo server?
[11:16] <tristan> !keyboard
[11:16] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[11:16] <sanmarcos> cotroler: technically no
[11:16] <Flannel> oskude: er, references? no.  but, it's important enough (I'm not selling snakeoil) enough for this:
[11:16] <Jenkins> Locke: i do
[11:16] <Flannel> !kdesu
[11:16] <ubotu> In KDE, use kdesu to run graphical applications with root priveleges when you have to. Do *not* do sudo {GUIAPP}; you can muck up your permissions/config files. For what to use in GNOME, see !gksudo
[11:16] <sanmarcos> cotroler: just install jre to use azureus
[11:16] <Flannel> !gksudo
[11:16] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo, as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using sudo {guiapp}
[11:16] <Jenkins> Locke: kinda, i run my own Teamspeak Server from my windows machine
[11:16] <cotroler> sanmarcos: so to install azureus java is enough right?
[11:16] <Leeif> sanmarcos: do u know how to change my bootsplash screen?
[11:16] <Locke> Jenkins: i run a Ventrilo server on my Windows machine, i just don't know how to install it under Ubuntu
[11:16] <oskude> ok ...
[11:16] <Flannel> oskude: so, no, I have no links, but Se-veas kindly added ubout commands
[11:16] <livingdaylig> oskude: thax too. NO, i'm not aware of having used sudo to run any application. Coz aftrer installing i always run them from Applications.
[11:17] <Jenkins> Locke: Well if it is running under Windows why you want it  under Ubuntu?
[11:17] <likwidtek_> yay!  I'm chatting on my ubuntu powerbook g4 baby.  54m airport extreem to hahaha  i was so sad when i thought there was no broadcom support for ubuntu but silly me
[11:17] <likwidtek_> mine runs stable at 54M  woot
[11:17] <Jenkins> Locke: running the server doesnt really use up many resources (at least teamspeak)
[11:17] <sanmarcos> Leeif: bootsplash screens are usually specificed in grub's menu.lst or whatever lilo uses. You have to change the bootsplahs screen and maybe regenerate the initrd if it is stored there. I havent used bootsplash screens in a long time
[11:17] <dooglus> livingdaylig: you might need to change some other dirs too.  do an "ls -la ~ | grep root" to see if anything else is owned by root
[11:17] <oskude> Flannel: ok, good to know
[11:17] <Jenkins> Likwidtek: i use my broadcom wireless on Ubuntu
[11:18] <Jenkins> Likwidtek: i just had to grab the drivers from my windows partition
[11:18] <likwidtek_> lol ok 11M it is haha
[11:18] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: why uses linux when you have os x?
[11:18] <Locke> Jenkins: i restart my PC way too often and i have a server in my closet i use for stuff like this
[11:18] <likwidtek_> sanmarcos, to learn
[11:18] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: learn what?
[11:18] <likwidtek_> ubuntu
[11:18] <Jenkins> Locke: i see. well I'm not too familiar with linux. sorry i cant help ya
[11:18] <tristan> HOw can I modify my keyboard configuration? My function button does not work (I suppose is not recognized) and therefore I cannot decrease the luminosity of my screen...
[11:18] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: os x, for all purposes has all the same gnu utilities and unix core as linux
[11:18] <likwidtek_> and for geek points
[11:18] <likwidtek_> lol
[11:18] <livingdaylig> Flannel: i must have done but i'm not in the habit of doing so, hence i can't be 1000%sure that i didn't. but the fact of the problem implies that i must have done. I'm glad it appears to beb resolved. I'll certainly be even more conscious of the caution now
[11:18] <Leeif> sanmarcos: not grub splash, bootslash (ubuntu splash)
[11:19] <likwidtek_> Jenkins, you able to run stable at 54M wireless?
[11:19] <J-_> will ext3 be detected on xp, when i turn my external hard drive on?
[11:19] <oskude> J-_: no
[11:19] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: ubuntu != linux, linux is the kernel, What you would learn is basically GNOME and the gui. And some Debian related commands such as apt, synaptic and so on
[11:19] <sanmarcos> J-_: if you have fs-driver yes
[11:19] <Jenkins> Likwidtek: i usually just run wired connection, but my strength is always max
[11:19] <sanmarcos> J-_: if not, it will just say the drive has no formatting, and will ask you to format it, do not..
[11:19] <blkdomini> hi all
[11:19] <Flannel> J-_: no
[11:19] <sanmarcos> Leeif: the ubuntu spalsh is specified in the grub config file

[11:20] <Jenkins> !broadcom > Jenkins
[11:20] <DrBashir2> can I install Opera with apt-get?
[11:20] <sanmarcos> J-_: for all purposes, fs-driver works great for me. But if you want to be on the safe side, just use vfat
[11:20] <likwidtek_> sanmarcos, well I'm not very good with linux... my biggest problem has always been finding a great community that doesnt just scream RTFM at you when you ask questions.  the ubuntu community is amazing and I think it is fun to run it on my mac.  It's dual booted so I float between the two
[11:20] <sanmarcos> DrBashir: not from ubuntu afaik, but opera has debs
[11:20] <ardchoille> Flannel: When nautilus starts up, it manages the desktop, whioch means it put icons on the desktop as well as a right-click menu on the desktop. I use openbox as my window manager because it has a customisable right-click menu for the desktop. When you run "gksudo nautilus" it changes the desktop and replaces my right-click menu because nautilus manages the desktop and using gksudo makes the root nautilus replace the users' desktop. You can o
[11:21] <ardchoille> Sorry for the long paragraph folks.
[11:21] <DrBashir2> sanmarcos: so I need to use firefox to get Opera?
[11:21] <Flannel> ardchoille: er, you sure that belongs to me?  and, it got cut off at "you can o"
[11:21] <Leeif> sanmarcos: ok
[11:21] <Jenkins> !broadcom > likwidteck
[11:21] <dooglus> livingdaylig: run this then: "sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.{gnome,local,qt}"
[11:21] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: the ubuntu community welcomes newbies because 90% of its user base is newcomers. Most users here that ask newbie quetsions would be RTFM'd to hell in #debian
[11:21] <Jenkins> !broadcom > likwidteck_
[11:21] <blkdomini> i have a problem with engage toolbar
[11:21] <sanmarcos> DrBashir: ehh no, just a web browser
[11:21] <dooglus> livingdaylig: then check again with that ls command to make sure there are none lef
[11:21] <ardchoille> Flannel: I was just saying that gksudo nautilus can cause problems where sudo nautilus does not.

[11:21] <amarokker> ardchoille: you didnt use a wordprocessor to type the messages now, do you? :D
[11:21] <Locke> can someone help me with installing something under Ubuntu?
[11:21] <vl_h> opera can be downloaded from opera.com
[11:21] <sanmarcos> DrBashir: its like in windows, you need to use IE to get firefox, unless you have it from some other source
[11:22] <blkdomini> please help me
[11:22] <sanmarcos> Locke: such as?
[11:22] <ruxpin> suddenly permissions for /dev/null changed, and normal users can't write to it anymore.. what could be the cause?
[11:22] <livingdaylig> dooglus: LOL  :)  i really messed something up there it looks like. I'm glad the Force is strong in you. I feel in good hands
[11:22] <Flannel> ardchoille: no, I wouldn't classify that as "messing up"  you're running it as a different user, and as such, have different preferences.
[11:22] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: lol
[11:22] <wthww> me needs help :'(
[11:22] <amarokker> has anyone noticed? the latest opera builds have been unusually slow on linux- or is it a dapper issue?
[11:22] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root is default, just chmod/own it as root and all should be fine
[11:22] <blkdomini> the error is:
[11:22] <Jenkins> likwidteck_: i have a link for you to look at for your wireless card issue

[11:23] <Locke> sanmarcos: i'm trying to install a ventrilo server on a server i have in my closet, and it's only command prompt, no GUI, and i'm trying to install a ventrilo server, and i don't even know how to open a tar.gz file in command prompt
[11:23] <s_spiff> anyone here knows a good tcp/ip based messenger? i'm sick of this xipmsg!
[11:23] <amarokker> wthww: crying won't help. state your problem, mate :)
[11:23] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: that is 666 in numeric, yes /dev/null is the devil
[11:23] <wthww> k
[11:23] <sanmarcos> Locke: tar.gz you do with tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[11:23] <blkdomini> why?
[11:23] <ardchoille> Flannel: ah hah, you just solved a problem for me that no one else has been able to solve. Thank you vey much. I'll change the root desktop around to use openbox instead of metacity

[11:24] <DrBashir2> sanmarcos:  crap, I removed FF, its still running, but it cant start the download dialog... :|
[11:24] <dooglus> Locke: "tar xf file.tar.gz" is the easiest way.  "tar xf" works for all kinds of tar files, whether they're compressed or not
[11:24] <likwidtek_> Jenkins, this one?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper this one?
[11:24] <livingdaylig> dooglus: i think this looks better now. Only Root is root as should be, yea? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19089
[11:24] <J-_> sanmarcos: well, it seems like ext3 has a lot more options than fat32, and linux uses ext3, i just want to format the drive so i can use it with linux, since i'm putting linux on both of my computers, i just need to get onto xp to transfer the files, and possible if i go somewhere and i need to use a windows system, i can use the external drive. i think i'm going to go with ext3, hopefully it's the better choice and the hard drive doesn't go 
[11:24] <Jenkins> yah that or the one i IM'd you
[11:24] <amarokker> mcphail: when we're building opera from source, does it use the static/shared qt libs? if its static, then the menus'd look terrible 'gainst the smooth gnome interface
[11:24] <Jenkins> i cannot find the exact one i used
[11:24] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: but the permissions reset at every boot
[11:24] <sanmarcos> J-_: well if you are going to use the external as a travel drive. I would suggest FAT32
[11:24] <Jenkins> but it worked good
[11:24] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: and that happened suddenly
[11:24] <dooglus> livingdaylig: that's "..", not "root".  ".." is the parent directory of /home/grasshopper, ie "/home", so yes, it should be owned by root
[11:25] <sanmarcos> J-_: or even, just make a small 100mb parittion of FAT32 to store fs-driver in there, or some other windows file
[11:25] <wthww> Ive installed ubuntu and everythings went well. im even on my wireless interent, (THAT was a pain) But ive i nstalled SDun JRE from add/remove but firefox still says its not installed, what do i do?
[11:25] <Jenkins> Can anybody here help me configure Kismet?
[11:25] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: udev is probably screwing you, and sleeping with your girlfriend/wife
[11:25] <likwidtek_> well im connected now wirelesslessly hanging out outside smokin
[11:25] <likwidtek_> so this worked.
[11:25] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: although, I dont know if udev genereates /dev/null. hmmm
[11:26] <likwidtek_> when I /etc/network$ sudo iwconfig eth1 rate 54M I kinda loose connectivity randomly
[11:26] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: most possibly a udev issue. What are the current perms on dev null ?
[11:26] <likwidtek_> but mleh... so far it's stable.. I will tweak it but right now i'm all good.  I'm having a blast with ubuntu tho this rocks
[11:27] <J-_> hmm yeah, small partition with fat32 with the driver and some extra space, and the rest ext3.
[11:27] <livingdaylig> dooglus: ok, i think  :|  i am getting better at this stuff. I'm just glad its working now. Yakuake i've discovered is a great drop-down terminal and i'm just used to k3b, and where would we be without a burner?
[11:27] <Locke> is there any way to install files directly from a tar.gz file?
[11:27] <likwidtek_> I think i did pooch my os x install when I parted the drive.  i get the grey spinning wheel of death.  I think i just need to run the disk utils on the os x install cd
[11:28] <oskude> Locke: tar.gz. are "zipped" packages, so they can contain like what ever...
[11:28] <J-_> sanmarcos: thanks for the information, much appreciated.
[11:28] <sanmarcos> J-_: sure man, any time
[11:28] <wthww> ok, ive got ubuntu installed and its working great, but i cant get Sun Java to work. even though its installed, firefox still says its not. any idea on what to do?
[11:29] <Locke> does ANYONE know anything about setting up a ventrilo server in the command prompt?
[11:29] <amarokker> wthww-ubuntu: have you tried the ubuntu-wiki?
[11:29] <likwidtek_> Jenkins, any idea on how to get the powerbook brightness and volume keys to work in ubuntu?
[11:29] <wthww> yeah... i had a page, but i lost t and have been trying to find it again all night
[11:29] <Jenkins> if you use sudo apt-get install to install something.. how would you uninstall that package?
[11:29] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: if you are still there, you might want to checkout /etc/udev and do a grep "null" * -Ri in there,  permissions.rules sounds very intersting to what your problem is about
[11:30] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: crw-------
[11:30] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: everything works by chmoding, but at every reboot that changes back
[11:30] <livingdaylig> May the FORCE be with YOU All. As these words fade into the distance and drop off the screen like some Star Wars credit (or intro) know it was not in vain. It meant alot to me and the value of it shall reverberate through ETERNITY!
[11:30] <Jenkins> Likwidtek_: no idea lol i got the same kinda keys but they are pretty useless.. i have a headset plugged in to my lappy and sound still comes from speakers lol
[11:30] <livingdaylig> AMEEN!
[11:30] <amarokker> if you follow it word to word, you'd get it to work in no time. ok, lemme see if i can point you to to the link
[11:30] <Jenkins> if you use sudo apt-get install to install something.. how would you uninstall that package?
[11:30] <likwidtek_> Jenkins,  heh i wanna get it workin.  i also have noticed that the power drains faster in ubuntu than os x
[11:31] <ruxpin> sudo apt-get remove
[11:31] <Seveas> wthww, if you don't want to be kicked, turn off useless scripts
[11:31] <dooglus> oskude: here's an "in writing" explanation of the 'gksudo vs. sudo' thing.
[11:31] <dooglus> oskude: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo
[11:31] <oskude> dooglus: thanx
[11:31] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: checkout my tip, might be helpful,
[11:31] <vl_h> sudo apt-get remove --purge
[11:31] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: crw is 600
[11:31] <wthww> i did
[11:31] <wthww> that what i was doing when i git kicked
[11:32] <vl_h> man apt-get
[11:32] <neuro-> Can anyone recommend a PCI Wireless NIC that will work on Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper?
[11:32] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: it should be 666, so try grep -Ri "null" * | grep "6" on /etc/udev
[11:32] <livingdaylig> dooglus: thx for the inside scoop. I'm reading it too
[11:32] <oskude> wthww: scripts (like "now playing") are not allowed here
[11:32] <sanmarcos> neuro-: most do, its just a matter of avoiding those which dont. Check the Ubuntu Wiki on Wireless
[11:32] <wthww> oskdude: i knew that. thats why i was turning it off WHEN i was kicked.
[11:32] <wthww> so, thanks.
[11:33] <oskude> wthww: well, now you know, shut it off before you enter...
[11:33] <Jenkins> is there a Defrag app in Linux?
[11:33] <dooglus> oskude: notice that it still doesn't really explain what's going on, and why they can't just fix sudo and/or the apps so they don't break things
[11:33] <sanmarcos> Jenkins: journalling file systems dont need defragging
[11:33] <oskude> dooglus: yup
[11:33] <dooglus> !info defrag
[11:33] <ubotu> defrag: ext2, minix and xiafs filesystem defragmenter. In repository universe, is extra. Version 0.73pjm1-7 (dapper), package size 66 kB, installed size 208 kB (Only available for i386)
[11:33] <dooglus> Jenkins: ^-- yup

[11:34] <Lexy> hi......?
[11:34] <Locke> alright, i have a program that runs in the command prompt, and i only have command prompt only, is there any way to run this program in the background and still keep it running while being able to do other things at the same time?
[11:34] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: ^
[11:34] <sanmarcos> dooglus: I had the idea that journalled systems didnt need defrags
[11:34] <ruxpin> Locke: append '&
[11:34] <ruxpin> Locke: script.sh &
[11:34] <IRCMonkeyx> !common commands
[11:34] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: yeah that is fine, can you paste me your ls -l /dev/null ?
[11:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about common commands - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:35] <IRCMonkeyx> ! commands
[11:35] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[11:35] <Seveas> chol, pan
[11:35] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: it's chmodded right now
[11:35] <dooglus> Locke: "screen" is very good - it lets you keep stuff running even after you close the terminal window, and come back to it later.  alternatively, for a cheaper solution, stick a '&' at the end of the command
[11:35] <ruxpin> crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 2006-05-31 05:21 /dev/null
[11:35] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: ^
[11:35] <Virtuaal> Is there any solution to wrap files name in gnome desktop?
[11:35] <IRCMonkeyx> !format
[11:35] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[11:35] <chol> Seveas, thanks
[11:35] <dooglus> Locke: or if the command has already been started, hit control-z to stop it, then run 'bg' to make it continue in the background
[11:35] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I did ga+rw /dev/null
[11:35] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: I suspect your system date is wrong, just wanted to confirm the theory that it was udev that changed it on system up
[11:35] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: its good that you have knowledge of unix permissions
[11:36] <livingdaylig> I never knew about gksudo
[11:36] <J-_> with gpart, i can't format the drive, it's locked. how should can i format it in linux? can i sudo gparted which will give me permission to format the drive?
[11:36] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: the date is correct

[11:36] <amarillion> I just got a crash when trying to watch this movie: http://www.iconfactory.com/ via mplayer plugin in firefox. Can somebody replicate this? Could this be due to the fglrx driver?
[11:36] <IRCMonkeyx> !repair ubuntu
[11:36] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: but it is most puzzling that udev would restrict /dev/null
[11:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about repair ubuntu - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:36] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: yes
[11:36] <IRCMonkeyx> !repair
[11:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about repair - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:36] <Seveas> IRCMonkeyx, don't play with the bot
[11:36] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I'll reboot again to see what happens
[11:36] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I don't think there's anything special about journaled filesystems to do with defragging.  the journal just ensures consistancy in the event of a crash
[11:36] <IRCMonkeyx> i am not playing trying to learn sth
[11:36] <sanmarcos> dooglus: ahh, thanks for correcting me. But does EXT3 have a defrag tool? its not fsck
[11:36] <livingdaylig> Flannel: never knew aobut gksudo never mind teh distinction between sudo and gksudo in terms of how the configureation files are used
[11:36] <oskude> J-_: if its gnome program, its suggested that you use "gksudo program"
[11:37] <IRCMonkeyx> when i click to disk manager , it gives me a script error
[11:37] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: hmm no, google /dev/null permission, some very interesting results indeed

[11:37] <He3eK> Can anyone answer a WiFi related question on Ubuntu?
[11:37] <Locke> how do i make a program run automatically in the CLI at bootup?

[11:37] <Seveas> !anyone > He3eK
[11:37] <DrBashir2> Evolution has an option to leave mail on my pop3 server, but how can I specify to only keep mail from the last 15 day's or so?
[11:37] <sanmarcos> Locke: add it to your .bashrc
[11:37] <Seveas> Locke, bootup or login?
[11:37] <IRCMonkeyx> how can i repair ubuntu ?
[11:37] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I would expect defrag to work on ext3, but I don't know.  I use reiserfs, and have never found a defrag tool for that.  or even a way of measuring the level of fragmentation.
[11:38] <Locke> seveas: well, both, i only run in CLI, i have no GUI
[11:38] <sanmarcos> IRCMonkeyx: please be specific
[11:38] <livingdaylig> oskude: yes, i learnt that from the article. So because gedit is a gnome program gkusdo should be used. But i wanstn clear why in the example given with nano sudo was used ?
[11:38] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I would be amazed if it isn't heavily fragmented though - I run with the disk 99% most of the time, and work with huge files.
[11:38] <livingdaylig> oskude: aguess, nano is not a gnome app?
[11:38] <Seveas> Locke, bootup: add it to /etc/rc.local login: ~/.bashrc is the place
[11:38] <oskude> livingdaylig: nano is a "text" program
[11:38] <sanmarcos> Locke: on init, create an init script, man update-rc.d (iirc) or man 8 init, for login put it in your .bashrc at the end and add a &
[11:38] <IRCMonkeyx> sanmarcos: when i click from administrator tools to disk manager, it cant be open
[11:38] <livingdaylig> oskude: and not gnome per se
[11:38] <oskude> livingdaylig: eeh, a text editor for the console/terminal
[11:39] <IRCMonkeyx> sanmarcos: when it says there is an backend script error
[11:39] <sanmarcos> dooglus: you should try XFS if dealing with huge files. I love it here. I heard horror stories with reiser3
[11:39] <livingdaylig> oskude: whereas gedit is?
[11:39] <oskude> livingdaylig: texteditor for gnome
[11:39] <Phenax> I've heard more horror stories about XFS than reiser3
[11:39] <livingdaylig> oskude: yea, ok  :p
[11:39] <sanmarcos> IRCMonkeyx: hmm probably a bug in the program, not ubuntu's fault
[11:39] <He3eK> I've got a netgear PCMCIA card that is not detecting on my laptop... how can I make it work?
[11:39] <IRCMonkeyx> sanmarcos: nothing to do ?
[11:40] <IRCMonkeyx> sanmarcos: can ti be releated with mounting ?
[11:40] <IRCMonkeyx> sanmarcos: can it be releated with mounting ?
[11:40] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 2006-05-31 05:21 /dev/null
[11:40] <sanmarcos> IRCMonkeyx: no, I dont think so
[11:40] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I can't do anything without chmod'ing
[11:40] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: if that is the correct date, then yeah, udev's fault
[11:40] <ruxpin> hm
[11:41] <dooglus> sanmarcos: I hear lots of bad things about reiserfs too, but didn't experience anything bad yet, despite ubuntu crashing more often than closing down cleanly
[11:41] <ruxpin> Fri Jul 28 12:41:11 EEST 2006
[11:41] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: 
[11:41] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: ^
[11:41] <Phenax> I've ran reiser3 and reiser4 under pretty heavy load with no problems yet
[11:41] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: then why is the date on /dev/null may 31st?, try touching it
[11:42] <Leeif> how do i install a diff file?
[11:42] <psiborg> with patch
[11:43] <oskude> Leeif: you dont "install" a diff file, you patch that to the source code (normally)
[11:43] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I removed it, and recreated the whole thing
[11:43] <GnarusLeo> what is a good newsreader client for ubuntu?
[11:43] <GnarusLeo> usenet*
[11:43] <chol> Seveas, sweet reader, i remember using this a few years back, seems to have evolved a bit since
[11:43] <psiborg> I use pan
[11:43] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: there are some files dated to May 31 in /dev/
[11:43] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: try grep "null" * -R in /etc/init.d/ maybe some script is screwing with you
[11:43] <dooglus> Locke: to run a program at login, add it to ~/.bash_profile.  if you add it to ~/.bashrc it will run every time you start a new shell, which you probably don't want.
[11:43] <chol> GnarusLeo, yeah, go for pan
[11:44] <GnarusLeo> thanks
[11:44] <Seveas> chol, it's actuallt evolved more but the beta versions aren't in Ubuntu yet
[11:44] <Leeif> oskude: what is better here? to use the diff or the debian folder? http://www.bootsplash.de/files/
[11:44] <psiborg> And slrn
[11:44] <psiborg> eh
[11:44] <oskude> Leeif: how should i know... read their README, or so...
[11:44] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: and try that google search
[11:45] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: ahh, try this mount -o remount,suid,dev /mnt/hda1
[11:45] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: I remember having a similar problem with changing fstab and all my perms going to hell

[11:46] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:47] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: it has this option: defaults,errors=remount-ro
[11:47] <Cute`Boy> ok
[11:47] <oskude> Locke: afaik, samba uses its own user database
[11:47] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: thanks for your help
[11:47] <chol> Seveas, i can wait, this one lets me read dragonflybsd bugs so i'm pleased :)
[11:47] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: hmm, nothing in init.d suggests tampering with /dev/null?
[11:47] <frogzoo> Locke: by default, samba doesn't sync the nix passwd - so be default, there are no users enabled
[11:47] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: many >/dev/null
[11:47] <Locke> how do i add users?
[11:47] <DrBashir2> Evolution has an option to leave mail on my pop3 server, but how can I specify to only keep mail from the last 15 day's or so?
[11:48] <frogzoo> Locke: to linux, or samba?
[11:48] <GnarusLeo> Whats the name of that good .NZB site? You to pay some money, but its way updated
[11:48] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: no chmod though, try adding an extra |grep "chmod"
[11:48] <Locke> frogzoo: i'm trying to turn my Linux box into a file server so i can access and back up all my files onto my linux server, so i need to set up samba to be able to connect from my Windows PC to my Linux server
[11:48] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: hmm, "nodev" seems to be the single most logical cause for it. But it isnt in your fstab
[11:49] <Flannel> Locke: did you read the samba howto?
[11:49] <tristan> How can I modify xmodmap.conf so that whe I press function+F6 it decreases my screen luminosity and when I press funtion+F7 it increases my screen luminosity?
[11:49] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: no
[11:49] <Locke> flannel: yes
[11:49] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: there's nothing in /etc/init.d/ that chmod's /dev/null
[11:49] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I'll check nodev
[11:49] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: try rm'ing null and recreating it mknod -m 0666 /dev/null c 1 3
[11:50] <sergiol_elsewher> can sombody explain me why the /etc/init.d/postgresql8.0 start does nothing?
[11:50] <sergiol_elsewher> over ubuntu
[11:50] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: no nodev
[11:50] <Locke> frogzoo: so how would i go about adding users in samba?
[11:50] <frogzoo> Locke: you can create a samba passwd for a nix user with smbpasswd, or enable the password syncing in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[11:50] <sanmarcos> sergiol_elsewher: either it is empty or it has a check for something. The answer is in reading that file with an editor
[11:51] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: same problem with /dev/console
[11:51] <see> hello, how do i extract one file from a .deb?
[11:51] <likwidtek_> how can I emulate right mouse click on my powerbook in ubuntu?
[11:51] <sergiol_elsewher> it inly treats argv's and sources another file
[11:51] <sergiol_elsewher> * only
[11:51] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: what apps do you run as root?
[11:52] <cotroler>  Is there any way to login as root in the browser pls ??????
[11:52] <sanmarcos> cotroler: in the browser?
[11:52] <Locke> frogzoo: ok, so what would the logon name be?
[11:52] <cotroler> sanmarcos: in konquer
[11:52] <frogzoo> cotroler: it's dangerous & unnecessary
[11:52] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: and /dev/kmem, /dev/ppp, and grep retuns two odd files: "0" and "tun"
[11:52] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: you are seriously hosed
[11:52] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: only some ssh
[11:52] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: when did this start to happen?
[11:52] <frogzoo> Locke: the same as the matching nix account
[11:53] <DrBashir2> Evolution has an option to leave mail on my pop3 server, but how can I specify to only keep mail from the last 15 day's or so? or maybe a different Mail client?
[11:53] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: this morning, and I checked 'last' for odd logins
[11:53] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: none
[11:53] <Snake007uk> hey guys i am using a laptop with a additional screen attached is it possible on ubuntu to use both screens ?
[11:53] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: you use ssh client as root?
[11:53] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: you could do ssh -l root as a normal user
[11:53] <frogzoo> Snake007uk: which vid card?
[11:53] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I do both
[11:53] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: try lastb
[11:53] <Locke> frogzoo: when i try to change the password it tells mecould not connect to machine 127.0.0.1 NT_STATUS_LOGON FAIRUL
[11:53] <Snake007uk> nvidia 6200
[11:54] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: something seriously changed, might have been an app, a service at boot..
[11:54] <seamus_ie> hey all...
[11:54] <Snake007uk> frogzoo: nvidia 6200
[11:54] <sgleo87> Can I just go into hibernate instead of shutting down my laptop or will I notice a decrease in performance after several days?
[11:54] <Snake007uk> frogzoo:  i also have xgl running
[11:54] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: UNKNOWN                                Thu Jul  6 11:07 - 11:07  (00:00)
[11:55] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: that's the only lastb that I think is not mine
[11:55] <frogzoo> Snake007uk: apart from xgl, dual monitor is a standard x feature
[11:55] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: well, I mean the issue is at startup
[11:55] <DrBashir2> whats the IRC channel for evolution?
[11:56] <DrBashir2> can't find it on the website
[11:56] <Locke> frogzoo: ok... i think i changed the password... would you know an online tutorial or something that could help me get through all this so i don't have to distract you?
[11:56] <sanmarcos> DrBashir: #evolution at irc.gnome.org. Evolution is also used by the bolivian druglord Evo Morales
[11:56] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: udev was at runlevels 3,4,5 and S, I removed it now from 3,4,5
[11:56] <sanmarcos> sanmarcos: I would suggest a purge --reinstall of udev
[11:56] <Snake007uk> frogzoo:  will i need to install anything to get dual monitors working ?
[11:56] <frogzoo> !samba
[11:56] <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
[11:56] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I'll reboot again
[11:56] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: eh I wouldnt do that. without udev you will not get all the niceties of hardware/desktop integration in gnome
[11:57] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: udev is still at S
[11:57] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: but yeah, try to pinpoint if it is udev. Just so you kmow, it will boot without udev
[11:57] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: you can remove it you want, although I wouldnt recommend it
[11:57] <frogzoo> Locke: tldp.org is also very good, or find the samba docs themselves, which are very complete - just google
[11:57] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: I understand that runlevel S leaves the daemons running until runlevel 6
[11:57] <dooglus> ruxpin: the default in ubuntu is to use runlevel 2 for everything
[11:58] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: just try without udev, see if we can pinpoint the cause of this crap to be the devil's work (aka udev)
[11:58] <sgleo87> Can I just go into hibernate instead of shutting down my laptop or will I notice a decrease in performance after several days?
[11:58] <matko> hello what is LAMP?
[11:59] <Madeye> guys, how to allow unauthenticated packages >?
[11:59] <oskude> sgleo87: dunno, but i cant think why that should decrease performance... have you tried ?
[11:59] <dooglus> ruxpin: running "ls -l /etc/rc*.d/*udev" should show only one link: /etc/rcS.d/S10udev -> ../init.d/udev
[12:00] <ruxpin> dooglus: I've got four the links to 3,4,5 and S
[12:00] <alex_ndc> hi people, I have a problem ... I installed Apache2, php5 and mysql-server-4.1 ... I also installed php5-mysql and php5-mysqli ... these extensions haven't been activated ... how can I activate them ?
[12:01] <oskude> alex_ndc: do you have this installed: libapache2-mod-php5 ?
[12:01] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: dont worry, 2 is default. Udev just populates /dev on demand and handles hotplugging, the sky wont fall if you disable it
[12:02] <likwidtek_> Is it possible to mount my OS X partition in ubuntu and repair it so it will boot?  It is stuck on the spinning wheel of death since I resized the partition to dual boot ubuntu
[12:02] <alex_ndc> oskude: yes, libapache2-mod-php5 is installed
[12:02] <sgleo87> oskude: well...I don't know, I haven't tried but there has to be some disadvantage otherwise why would you shut a computer down completly instead of going into hibernate all the time
[12:02] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: hfs+ is supported
[12:03] <oskude> alex_ndc: and what isnt enabled ?
[12:03] <likwidtek_> thats what im running.  any idea what i can run to fix it?
[12:03] <alex_ndc> oskude: I think I have all extensions required installed ... but I think I am supposed to modify php.ini or something
[12:03] <sanmarcos> likwidtek: so yes. I do not know how you would go about repairing it, but it is supported, so just dmesg|grep hd and fdisk -l the specific hd, then mount it
[12:03] <Alessi0> hi all
[12:03] <alex_ndc> oskude: the mysql extensions are not enabled in php, so I cannot access the mysql database
[12:04] <oskude> alex_ndc: hmm, do you really have mysql sever installed ? can you login with "mysql -u root" ?
[12:04] <frogzoo> anyone have the problem where suspend makes sound crap out & amarok refuses to restart?
[12:04] <dooglus> ruxpin: I don't suppose you ever enter levels 3, 4, or 5, so it probably makes no difference.
[12:05] <oskude> sgleo87: well, i want my computer be off when i leave it...
[12:05] <alex_ndc> oskude: yes, I have it installed
[12:06] <oskude> alex_ndc: and a php file with "<?php phpinfo() ?>" doesnt show mysql ?
[12:06] <ruxpin^> sanmarcos: ok, now it seems to boot fine..
[12:06] <tristan> what can I do when xev doesn't recognize the button I'm typing on and there fore
[12:06] <llama32>  are there any good filesharing programs for linux [esp. KDE]  other than limewire and the various bittorrent clients?
[12:06] <tristan> it has no keycode
[12:06] <sgleo87> oskude: well hibernate is shutting it off but it saves everything on the hdd so when I turn it on again it opens up all the programs I had running before...oh well, I will just try it out and see what happens
[12:06] <sanmarcos> ruxpin^: the right permissions are there?
[12:06] <oskude> alex_ndc: im just wondering, as i didnt have to edit anything after i install "lamp"
[12:06] <tristan> llama32, amule
[12:06] <sergiol_elsewher> when i do apt-get install postgresql-8.0 shouldnt it install also conf files?
[12:07] <ruxpin> sanmarcos: yes, as I re-created the node
[12:07] <alex_ndc> oskude: no,  phpinfo doesn't show mysql ... it doesn't show GD either (I also installed GD)
[12:07] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: then problem fixed
[12:07] <oskude> alex_ndc: hmm, sec...
[12:08] <sanmarcos> ruxpin: the house is in order, I have to go to due obedience (aka sleep). Good night, and good luck
[12:08] <llama32> thanks tristan - will download
[12:08] <ruxpin^> well, the problem still persists for /dev/console..
[12:08] <likwidtek_> mount: can't find /dev/hda9 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[12:09] <likwidtek_> i did sudo mount /dev/hda9
[12:09] <likwidtek_> is that not right?
[12:09] <oskude> alex_ndc: i got extension=mysql.so extension=mysqli.so extension=gd.so at the end of my /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini but i cant recall adding them there
[12:09] <alex_ndc> ok, I'll try adding these lines
[12:09] <oskude> alex_ndc: have you restarted apache2 since installing ?
[12:09] <ruxpin^> oh well, there's a working ubuntu box right there that has the same perms now
[12:10] <ruxpin^> thanks for all your help
[12:10] <alex_ndc> oskude: yeah, I have ... it appears I don't have those lines in php.ini
[12:11] <agresor> Hi to all...
[12:11] <likwidtek_> how do I mount hda9 ?  sudo mount /dev/hda9  ?
[12:11] <oskude> alex_ndc: hmm... i remember i had to do something with gd to get it included, but definetly not by adding those lines... for mysql i didnt have to do anything...
[12:11] <agresor> is there here anyone that have successfull installed Webcam on ubuntu ?????????
[12:11] <agresor> i have Genius Webcam eye. And is there any way to install my usb webcam ?
[12:12] <oskude> alex_ndc: could be that when i installed apache2-mod-php5  with apt-get, it asked my if it should be activated
[12:13] <oskude> alex_ndc: dunno if synaptic asks that (or if it even asked with apt-get)
[12:13] <agresor> likwidtek,   sudo mount   /dev/hda9       /media/hda9     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[12:13] <alex_ndc> well, thanks for your help, I added the lines and now phpinfo() shows mysql
[12:13] <agresor> but before that do
[12:13] <agresor> mkdir /media/hda9
[12:13] <agresor> ;p
[12:13] <oskude> alex_ndc: roger
[12:13] <longwave> oskude: when you install the php4-mysql package it adds the extension=mysql.so line at the bottom of php.ini
[12:13] <longwave> oskude: i presume it does the same for the other php4- extension packages
[12:13] <likwidtek_> agresor, it's a hfs+ drive
[12:13] <agresor> ah..
[12:14] <oskude> longwave: didnt seem to do for php5-mysql
[12:14] <nox-Hand> What would happen if I stopped a prelink?
[12:14] <likwidtek_> sorry :/  is there an easy way to do that?
[12:14] <oskude> longwave: but as i said, it did for me
[12:14] <barongas> I was queried by an installer to give the path to my java virtual machine (which I'm quite sure I installed a while back), any idea where this would be located?
[12:14] <nox-Hand> It's been prelinking for about 20 mins, and I think it's stopped
[12:14] <agresor> likwidtek, try to remove ntfs and put hfs+
[12:14] <agresor> ;p
[12:15] <likwidtek_> oh haha
[12:15] <likwidtek_> k
[12:15] <agresor> is there here anyone that have successfull installed Webcam on ubuntu ?
[12:15] <wsjunior> how to tell apt-get to skip trying to upgrade openoffice and go to the next packages.
[12:15] <agresor> likwidtek,  try to put that line in /etc/fstab  when next time reboot that will be mountet
[12:16] <longwave> likwidtek_: the filesystem type for hfs+ is just "hfs" not "hfs+" i believe
[12:16] <agresor> put it without "sudo mount"
[12:16] <nox-Hand> wsjunior, delte OOo
[12:16] <agresor> longwave,  u have try to install webcam ? :(
[12:16] <longwave> agresor: sorry, no
[12:16] <agresor> ok...
[12:16] <wsjunior> nox-Hand: i cant.. i gives me a msg asking to use -f but using -f doesnt solve..
[12:16] <likwidtek_> sudo mount   /dev/hda9       /media/hda9     hfs+    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[12:16] <wsjunior> nox-Hand: any idea?
[12:17] <likwidtek_> that have me a usage error
[12:17] <agresor> and... try without +
[12:17] <longwave> likwidtek_: change "hfs+" to just "hfs"
[12:17] <agresor> ;P
[12:17] <nox-Hand> You can't remove OOo from your PC? o_o
[12:17] <wsjunior> nox-Hand: no
[12:17] <likwidtek_> tried both still usage
[12:17] <longwave> oh wait, you can't just paste a line from /etc/fstab into sudo mount
[12:17] <sergiol_elsewher> what is the command to know which package a file came from?
[12:17] <longwave> likwidtek_: is that line in your /etc/fstab?
[12:17] <Seveas> sergiol_elsewher, dpkg -S file
[12:17] <nox-Hand> wsjunior, can't you go to Synaptic, search Open Office and remove all?
[12:17] <nox-Hand> o.o
[12:18] <likwidtek_> no I dont think so
[12:18] <longwave> likwidtek_: try "sudo mount -t hfs -o nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 /dev/hda9 /media/hda9"
[12:18] <wsjunior> nox-Hand: no
[12:18] <wsjunior> nox-Hand: i cant even get into X
[12:18] <nox-Hand> wsjunior, That
[12:18] <nox-Hand> 's effed up
[12:18] <longwave> likwidtek_: the way you had it before was the syntax for /etc/fstab, not for mount
[12:19] <likwidtek_> mount: mount point /media/hda9 does not exist
[12:19] <agresor> lol
[12:19] <agresor> create that folder
[12:19] <nox-Hand> apt-get remove <insert ALL openoffice packages here>
[12:19] <longwave> likwidtek_: did you make the /media/hda9 folder?
[12:19] <likwidtek_> lol sorry I didnt know I had to
[12:19] <nox-Hand> wsjunior, Why not upgrade them anywho?
[12:19] <likwidtek_> k lemme do that
[12:20] <nox-Hand> How much poo would I be in if I killed a prelinking process?
[12:20] <rexykik> what package do i need to compile stuff?
[12:20] <longwave> rexykik: build-essential
[12:21] <rexykik> thx
[12:21] <agresor> gcc , cpp, make
[12:21] <likwidtek_> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda9,
[12:21] <likwidtek_>        missing codepage or other error
[12:21] <likwidtek_>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[12:21] <likwidtek_>        dmesg | tail  or so
[12:21] <ogamiitto> my dapper box experiments little freezes (xorg, sound) when hard disk activity (for example extracting a compressed file), I've checked hdparm and dma is enabled, any clues?
[12:21] <agresor> [
[12:21] <likwidtek_> oops sorry
[12:21] <likwidtek_> thats the error I got
[12:21] <rexykik> ogamiitto, bad hd
[12:21] <agresor> likwidtek,
[12:21] <ogamiitto> it's a new one
[12:21] <agresor> try to do just this
[12:21] <longwave> likwidtek_: actually, i dont think hfs supports the "nls" option
[12:21] <agresor> sudo mount /dev/hda9 /media/hda9
[12:21] <sergiol_elsewher> can somebody tell me which package brings pg_hba.conf ?
[12:22] <rexykik> i would suggest returning it for a new one
[12:22] <longwave> likwidtek_: try just "sudo mount -t hfs  /dev/hda9 /media/hda9"
[12:22] <gean> hi all !
[12:22] <all> hi gean
[12:22] <longwave> sergiol_elsewher: postgresql, i think
[12:22] <likwidtek_> that worked!
[12:22] <likwidtek_> woo!
[12:22] <gean> all : thanks !
[12:23] <all> gean, Any Time! Your overuse of exclamation points disturbs my soul!
[12:23] <agresor> i must eat.. or i will die
[12:23] <agresor> :D
[12:23] <frogzoo> agresor: it's true
[12:24] <gean> all: was not trying ``!rm''
[12:24] <agresor> i`m online 48 hours..
[12:24] <agresor> and nothing eat
[12:24] <likwidtek_> now that it's mounted is there anything i can do to repair it?
[12:24] <frogzoo> agresor: you're an idiot
[12:24] <all> Food FTW
[12:24] <MenZa> !offtopic
[12:24] <agresor> frogzoo,  ?
[12:24] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:24] <agresor> ;\
[12:24] <agresor> that is not nice word
[12:24] <rexykik> it must have been a typo
[12:24] <longwave> likwidtek_: oh, i didnt realise it was damaged! unmount it then run "sudo fsck.hfsplus /dev/hda9"
[12:25] <rexykik> the letters are right next to eachother
[12:25] <Asc> ogamiitto: what kernel are you using?
[12:27] <gean> how can i reconfigure that x, so that the new TFT get more than 1024x768 ?!
[12:27] <ogamiitto> I'm using 2.6.15-26.386 (i'm using amd athlon processor )
[12:27] <likwidtek_> unmount /dev/hda9 ?
[12:27] <xadf> hi there
[12:27] <sergiol_elsewher> no
[12:27] <rexykik> gean, go into your hardware settings and change your monitor settings
[12:28] <xadf> is the breakage around updating to 2.0.3-3dapper3 known? if yes how do i fix it?
[12:29] <sergiol_elsewher> is theresomeway to do
[12:29] <sergiol_elsewher> dpkg -S pg_hba.conf
[12:29] <Asc> ogamiitto: okay.  I started getting similar freezes when I upgraded, but I'm using 2.6.17.7...  Did you compile, or is there an updte to -26?
[12:29] <sergiol_elsewher> but to repository packages
[12:29] <sergiol_elsewher> i have it not installed
[12:29] <Asc> *update
[12:30] <emanuel_> im using a sempron 32bits socket 754.. the correct architeture is k7 ?
[12:30] <nox-Hand> YES, prelinking complete:D
[12:30] <nox-Hand> bbl
[12:30] <ogamiitto> vanilla update
[12:31] <likwidtek_> longwave, sorry to bother again.. I try to unmount but it says the device is busy
[12:32] <likwidtek_> nm got it
[12:32] <Asc> Meh.  I was thinking it might be because I'd screwed with the IO.  Ah well.
[12:32] <danf_1979> maybe there is some process running in there likwidtek
[12:32] <likwidtek_> it was me i was in the dir in my terminal  lol
[12:32] <danf_1979> that was the process, heh
[12:32] <rexykik> likwidtek, dos user?
[12:33] <gean> rexykik, i tried all with the new menu of ubuntu, didn't get the hardware setting, and the Screen Resolution Preferences gives me 1024x768 as maximal (although at install i also specified some 12??x10??). There was but some xconf-reconfigure (??) or so, that i cannot remember... (it also does stuff about fonts & other) Which is the right spelling of that command ?!
[12:33] <likwidtek_> sudo: fsck.hfsplus: command not found
[12:33] <ruxpin> gean: X -configure
[12:34] <sergiol_elsewher> how can i know what package brings pg_hba.conf ?

[12:36] <Asc> ogamiitto: Might be, but I don't know what a k7 kernel is
[12:36] <likwidtek_> is fsck.hfsplus available for ubuntu?
[12:37] <frogzoo> ogamiitto: k7 means going 64 bit, best to stick with 686 tbh
[12:37] <ogamiitto> Asc, optimized kernel compilations for amd processor
[12:37] <frogzoo> is k7 64bit, or is there a separate a64 kernel?

[12:38] <Zhukov_> hi there
[12:38] <gean> frogzoo, sorry, got the error message from runnin' X -configure, thought copy-paste it does a ``normal job''
[12:38] <rexykik> any plans for a fubuntu?
[12:38] <sergiol_elsewher> does it search the things installed on my machine or in repository
[12:38] <likwidtek_> longwave, is fsck.hfsplus available for ubuntu?
[12:38] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: currently installed
[12:38] <Asc> Ah.  I'm using an old celeron... not really something about which I'm qualified to have an opinion
[12:38] <ruxpin> can you recommend a light firefox-type www-browser with tabs, for old hardware
[12:39] <sergiol_elsewher> and is nt there a way to search in repositories?
[12:39] <ogamiitto> ruxpin, epiphany browser is what you are looking for
[12:39] <Asc> ruxpin: Epiphany is light and decent.  Also Opera.

[12:41] <Luna-Tick> It is surprisingly quiet in here.
[12:42] <Asc> ogamiitto: yes
[12:42] <sergiol_elsewher> You have searched for pg_hba.conf in breezy, architecture i386.
[12:42] <sergiol_elsewher> Can't find that file, at least not in that distribution and on that architecture
[12:42] <sergiol_elsewher> how can i know my distro?

[12:43] <webben> When I login to my ubuntu box via PuTTY, i'd love my console colours to be black-on-white rather than the other way round, as in sunlight i have great difficult reading grey text on a black screen.
[12:44] <webben> What's the best way to accomplish this, given PuTTY supposedly announces itself to the server as an Xterm session
[12:44] <leo__> webben: that's a putty setting rather than a ubuntu setting
[12:44] <ogamiitto> I think i'm going to run a diagnostic tool for the hard drive
[12:45] <ogamiitto> bbl
[12:45] <Asc> When configuring the kernel for a desktop, which preemption option should I use?
[12:45] <webben> leo__: well, it's not really ... putty just allows you to set how colours are interpreted (i think), not what colours are actually there
[12:45] <webben> leo__: so for example, if you change colours with bash, putty shows those colours
[12:46] <Nikoladze> could somebody please explain the difference between hoary breezy and dapper? I can't find anything on google. which is stable/testing/unstable?
[12:46] <sergiol_elsewher>  Description:    Ubuntu (The Breezy Badger Release)
[12:46] <lhds> hey there got the live v6 cd got the partitions ready but the screen resolution is screwd therefore cannot proceed to install  help!
[12:46] <sergiol_elsewher> is it that?
[12:46] <webben> leo__: which perhaps implies that the grey-on-black is actually an ubuntu setting
[12:46] <likwidtek_> anyone know how to install fsck.hfsplus for ubuntu ?
[12:46] <orbin> Nikoladze: all are stable, dapper being the latest
[12:47] <leo__> webben: have you looked at the Putty -> Window -> Colours settings already?
[12:47] <Nikoladze> orbin, they're based on debian stable/testing/unstable no?
[12:47] <jrib> webben: I set colors in urxvt using ~/.Xdefaults, I believe xterm works the same way.  man urxvt has the optiosn I use, man xterm probably lists them for xterm as well.  A google search for Xdefaults should give you some samples.  Not sure if putty will "play nice" with these though...
[12:47] <webben> leo__: yes
[12:47] <webben> jrib: interesting, thanks
[12:47] <orbin> Nikoladze: based on debian, yes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_%28Linux_distribution%29#Releases
[12:48] <webben> leo__: i think it's a bad idea to set colours in a way that the server isn't aware of them
[12:48] <webben> leo__: because any programs which actually make an effort to make text legible with the system colors can't
[12:49] <jrib> webben: it does seem like it should be putty settings to set the colors though, since putty is acting like an xterm or urxvt would
[12:49] <Nikoladze> why does firefox not include the firefox logo?
[12:49] <jrib> Nikoladze: license reasons
[12:50] <help-the-n00b> Does Python need a compiler?
[12:50] <TTilus> webben: most programs just use "default foreground" and "default background", which are different from ANSI black and white
[12:50] <webben> jrib: really? what licence reasons apply to the logo but not the software?
[12:50] <orbin> Nikoladze: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship
[12:50] <lhds>  hey there got the live v6 cd got the partitions ready but the screen resolution is screwd therefore cannot proceed to install  help!
[12:50] <likwidtek_> anyone know how to install fsck.hfsplus for ubuntu ?
[12:50] <Nikoladze> orbin, thanks
[12:50] <orbin> lhds: screwed how?
[12:51] <jrib> help-the-n00b: python is interpreted
[12:51] <help-the-n00b> How?
[12:51] <wietz0r> anyone here use wireless ?
[12:51] <help-the-n00b> I play wireless video gmes!
[12:51] <TTilus> webben: reversing default video of specific terminal is a different issue from telling one program or another use different colors
[12:51] <lhds> orbin the screen resolution is low and the install program is too big to fit in screen .... tried the boot vga options, it changed the loading but not inside gnome
[12:52] <help-the-n00b> Yesterday I played hide and seek with someonee over on the west coast!
[12:52] <sergiol_elsewher> HEEEEEELP
[12:52] <orbin> lhds: hold alt.  that will let you drag the window by clicking anywhere in it
[12:52] <TTilus> webben: i guess what you want is to reverse default gf and bg from putty conf (window > colours)
[12:52] <help-the-n00b> With a handheld! It was wireless!
[12:52] <wietz0r> Anyone here have a suggestion for a good supported wireless network card ?
[12:52] <sergiol_elsewher> pg_hba.conf WHERE DO THAT COMES?
[12:52] <webben> TTilus: i think my point is that if a program like ls uses color intelligently then it's worth setting colors in a way that ls can introspect them
[12:52] <lhds> well that will do thanx
[12:52] <help-the-n00b> Get the one in the Nintendo DS.
[12:52] <Luna-Tick> Wietz0r: I use wireless
[12:53] <webben> (of course ls may set colors mindlessly, but one would hope at least some programs would do so intelligently)
[12:53] <help-the-n00b> Works for me. But porbably not for you.
[12:53] <Luna-Tick> I personally have an Intel IPW
[12:53] <jrib> webben: http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/faq.html
[12:53] <wietz0r> Luna-Tick: what network card ?
[12:53] <erider> I need some help. I'm trying to apt-get clisp or sbcl and I have a newly installed ubuntu and I'm new to linux. Can someone give me some advice? I'm getting that the package can't be found. But it should be there right?
[12:53] <TTilus> webben: progs use either default fg & bg or specific colours
[12:53] <webben> jrib: thanks for the link
[12:53] <Luna-Tick> Built into the centrino and works well for me
[12:53] <orbin> lhds: you could also try seeing if you can change res via sys >preferences > screen res
[12:53] <wietz0r> Luna-Tick: did it work out of the box ?
[12:54] <help-the-n00b> How do I do Python? Is it a server-side script?
[12:54] <jrib> Nikoladze: sine you asked the original question, you may be interested in http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/faq.html as well
[12:54] <TTilus> webben: how specific colors are used is a per-prog issue and afaik theres no general way of setting per user color palettes
[12:54] <Luna-Tick> Yes - the ubuntu installer sets it up without issue
[12:54] <wietz0r> Bah
[12:54] <wietz0r> Hopefully I'll just get a wired connection
[12:54] <lhds> nah that wont change orbin ill stick to the alt thing
[12:54] <help-the-n00b> How do I use it?
[12:54] <jrib> help-the-n00b: http://python.org/doc/tut/
[12:55] <help-the-n00b> Oh ok.
[12:55] <orbin> lhds: right
[12:55] <Luna-Tick> If I understand correctly, the driver for it is open source but maintained by Intel. The firmware is closed source, but they include it so that it all works for people.
[12:55] <webben> TTilus: i can believe that it's chaotic like that... just saying that a program like ls might for example not set something in green if the foreground color is already set as green in bash/xterm (i may be wrong about that)
[12:55] <Luna-Tick> If you can get a wired connection, it will work better under Linux
[12:55] <frogzoo> help-the-n00b: libapache2-mod-php5
[12:56] <orbin> erider: clisp is in "universe"  you need to enable the extra repositories
[12:56] <orbin> erider: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories
[12:56] <TTilus> webben: bash does not care about colors, term does but prog has no way of knowing what term actually displays if it is asked to display "defaut background"
[12:56] <orbin> erider: sbcl is in universe too
[12:57] <rocky1> cya all later
[12:57] <webben> TTilus: ah ... that's interesting (it's also pretty silly :( )
[12:57] <TTilus> webben: actually it is pretty portable  :)
[12:57] <webben> TTilus: really? how so?
[12:57] <TTilus> webben: b&w translates directly to default bg&fg
[12:58] <erider> orbin: how does one enable the repositories?
[12:58] <webben> TTilus: but pick up with my example of ls colors ... if you have your fg set as green then colors may become indistinguishable
[12:58] <Luna-Tick> !repositories
[12:58] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[12:58] <sergiol_elsewher> is there a way i can search the uninstalled packages database for that file?
[12:58] <gean> i'm asking again after trying & doin'
[12:59] <sergiol_elsewher> i did have it here
[12:59] <help-the-n00b> Where's the #unbuntu-offtopic
[12:59] <gean> can somebody please help me reconfigure my X to also have 12??x10?? resolution (for the supplementary TFT to my laptop) ?! please..
[12:59] <help-the-n00b> ?
[01:00] <TTilus> webben: progs propably are not that stupid that they would set fg but leave bg as default (or at least they should not do that)
[01:00] <gnomefreak> help-the-n00b: type /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:00] <cotroler> How do you uninstall programs in kubuntu?? is there an uninstaller or something?
[01:00] <orbin> erider: see Luna-Tick's second link
[01:00] <webben> TTilus: sorry, that's not quite the point i was making
[01:00] <gnomefreak> cotroler: adept
[01:00] <TTilus> webben: afaik there are no such, but could be, of course
[01:00] <sergiol_elsewher> a thing like dpkg -S
[01:00] <sergiol_elsewher> but for removed packages
[01:00] <TTilus> webben: no, that really is the point
[01:00] <livingdaylig> is there a reason why Realplayer is in Applications/Graphics?
[01:00] <erider> ok will do :)
[01:01] <webben> TTilus: not the point _I_ was making :)
[01:01] <cotroler> gnomefreak: but does adept uninstall other programs for example enemy territory?
[01:01] <TTilus> webben: ok, i see, you have a bad point  :D
[01:01] <gnomefreak> livingdaylig: because you are using the commericial repo
[01:01] <webben> TTilus: well maybe :)
[01:01] <webben> TTilus: what i was talking about is that ls uses different colors to represent different file types
[01:01] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: huh, is that the right home for it? figured it would be sound/video
[01:01] <gnomefreak> cotroler: should uninstall anything on your system that dpkg or apt was used to install
[01:02] <webben> TTilus: the issue is not whether fg can be distinguished from bg
[01:02] <TTilus> webben: if you have an intelligent program it has a way of knowin what is displayed (that it is very propably something intelligent)
[01:02] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: should i use another version? a better one?
[01:02] <webben> TTilus: but whether files colored fg can be distinguished from other colors
[01:02] <webben> TTilus: well, yeah, except you just said that was impossible (hence my comment that it was a silly situation)
[01:02] <TTilus> webben: intelligent program will always use differen fg and bg
[01:03] <gnomefreak> livingdaylig: realplayer is normally under sound/video not sure why its in graphics
[01:03] <webben> TTilus: again, this isn't about the difference between fg and bg ... it has nothing to do with it at all
[01:03] <cotroler> gnomefreak: /usr/local/games/enemy-territory thats the directory and adept didnt find it
[01:03] <TTilus> webben: prog cant ask what the colour use percieves, exactly is
[01:03] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: should i try again. Delete and reinstall?
[01:03] <gnomefreak> cotroler: did you compile it?
[01:03] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: it just looks weird there
[01:03] <TTilus> webben: but prog _can_ always ask term to use specific colour
[01:03] <gnomefreak> livingdaylig: no is it hurting anything by being there?
[01:03] <cotroler> gnomefreak: what do you mean by complie it pls?
[01:04] <gnomefreak> livingdaylig: you can try if you like personally i wouldnt both
[01:04] <gnomefreak> bother
[01:04] <webben> TTilus: yes... my impression is ls doesn't actually do that (that is, ls does respond to bash settings) but i'm not sure exactly how it does work
[01:04] <gnomefreak> cotroler: how did you install ET?
[01:04] <offs> I tried yesterday initng and it is slowest than the normal init in my ubuntu dapper :?
[01:04] <cotroler> gnomefreak: yes of course :)
[01:04] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: well, as long as it is ok, right now it only hurts my aesthetic need for right order and symmetry
[01:04] <TTilus> webben: if term is set so that there are different(ly labelled) colours which are the same, the term is broken, not the world  :)
[01:04] <gnomefreak> cotroler: How?
[01:05] <webben> TTilus: differently labelled colors? I don't get that. Bash just allots an ansi color escape sequence to fg and bg.
[01:05] <livingdaylig> gnomefreak: i just thought if that is not quite right, what else could be wrong
[01:05] <sergiol_elsewher> how can i force an apt-get install to use breezy ?
[01:05] <cotroler> gnomefreak: i ran the installer (.bin file) and installed automatically
[01:05] <webben> TTilus: so at the end of the day ls must specify some other escapes for its colors
[01:05] <TTilus> webben: those sequences are the labels
[01:05] <TTilus> webben: term translates them to colors it shows
[01:06] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: you're asking how to do that on a SUPPORT channel? dude...
[01:06] <gnomefreak> ah cotroler ok no adept wont find that you have to delete that or run the uninstall script (if there is one)
[01:06] <webben> TTilus: ah i see what you're saying, well i doubt term changes the link between sequences and colors at all
[01:06] <sergiol_elsewher> isn't it natuarl to ask here?
[01:06] <sergiol_elsewher> natural
[01:06] <Murfy_> hello
[01:06] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: if you're running dapper, use dapper packages.
[01:06] <sergiol_elsewher> no
[01:06] <TTilus> webben: all terms i have seen are fully configurable in that sense
[01:06] <Murfy_> what's the difference between sites-available and sites-enabled in apache2 on dapper?
[01:06] <apoka> Hi
[01:06] <sergiol_elsewher>  i thnk mine is breezy
[01:07] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: then don't ask for support :)
[01:07] <cotroler> gnomefreak: what does the uninstaller script look like? if i dont have I have to manually delete the whole directory??
[01:07] <TTilus> webben: you really can make "ANSI green" whatever you like
[01:07] <sergiol_elsewher> why
[01:07] <webben> frogzoo: isn't breezy still supported?
[01:07] <gnomefreak> sergiol_elsewher: type lsb_release -a
[01:07] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: if you're running breezy, apt will pick up the breezy packages
[01:07] <gnomefreak> webben: yes
[01:07] <sergiol_elsewher> this channel is only dapper's?
[01:07] <tjansson> I just sat up rsnapshot which i have done before, but weekly and monthly doesn't do anything. daily and hourly does however?
[01:07] <frogzoo> webben: sure it is, but deliberately running breezy packages on dapper is definately not supported
[01:07] <Murfy^> what's the difference between sites-available and sites-enabled in apache2 on dapper?
[01:07] <tjansson> what have i done wrong
[01:07] <gnomefreak> cotroler: ive never installed that game so i really couldnt tell you.
[01:07] <apoka> Somebody have a Creative PD1001 (WebCam)
[01:08] <apoka> ?
[01:08] <webben> frogzoo: but he is running breezy
[01:08] <TTilus> Murfy^: sites-enabled is read, the other is not
[01:08] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: no, it's also breezy, hoary, & warty
[01:08] <sergiol_elsewher> so if it exists a v 8.1 in dapper and it not exists in breezy what does it do?
[01:08] <cotroler> gnomefreak: k tnx anyway ;)
[01:08] <TTilus> Murfy^: you link from available to enabled what you use
[01:08] <webben> frogzoo: i think he's just phrased his queston in a confusing manner
[01:08] <Evil_Ed`> sup?
[01:08] <frogzoo> webben: if he's right, then apt will select the breezy packages by default
[01:08] <sergiol_elsewher> if breezy last is 8.0
[01:09] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: lsb_release -a
[01:09] <Murfy^> TTilus so when i set up virtual hosts, i need to do that in sites-enabled
[01:09] <webben> sergiol_elsewher: do you mean you want to install a dapper package on breezy?
[01:09] <skane> Murfy^: enabled are links to available. apache uses only what is linked. so you can easily switch on and off by adding or removing a link
[01:09] <gnomefreak> sergiol_elsewher: please paste your /etc/apt/sources.list file to pastebin
[01:09] <frogzoo> webben: that's not supported either ;)
[01:09] <TTilus> Murfy^: no, you do not, but it is the way you are expected to do
[01:09] <sergiol_elsewher> LSB Version:    n/a

[01:09] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: fair to say apt will pick up the breezy packages without intervention
[01:09] <Luna-Tick> Okay - so he is using breezy
[01:10] <Lukas> hi
[01:10] <gnomefreak> sergiol_elsewher: please also do uname -r
[01:10] <webben> sergio_eleswher: just to be clear ... what are you trying to install?
[01:10] <ogamiitto> back!,
[01:10] <sergiol_elsewher> 2.6.12-10-386
[01:10] <ogamiitto> Asc, I've upgraded to 2.6.15-26-k7, and there is a lot of improvements
[01:10] <tjansson> is there a ubuntu-server channel?
[01:11] <gean> ok, seems that "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" does what i wanted, thanks for (the few) hints...
[01:11] <gnomefreak> tjansson: you found it;)
[01:11] <gnomefreak> brb coffee
[01:12] <Luna-Tick> Sergiol, what was the package that you are wanting to install?
[01:12] <Asc> ogamiitto: oh, good.  So it was probably that you were using a kernel not optimal for your architecture?
[01:12] <Lukas> How a I associated mp3 to XMMS at mc? I can it in /usr/share/applications/default.list, but it is only for GNOME.
[01:12] <ogamiitto> no freezes, more efficient memory managemnt (i had a lot of swapping), right now i have oppened 2 instances of eclipse, firefox with more than 14 tabs, gajim, amsn, terminal.. and is not freezing
[01:12] <tjansson> I haveing strange problems with rsnapshot backup - see http://pastbin.uni.cc/8765
[01:12] <Luna-Tick> If you are looking for a really easy way to really help Ubuntu, join the popularity contest. This sends the packages you use to the Ubuntu developers so that they can put the popular ones on the CDs, give them priority when fixing bugs etc. For details on how to configure popcon, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPopularityContest - we need lots of users, especially "normal" users before it is any use!
[01:13] <ogamiitto> Asc, of course, if you experiment the freezes, maybe is time to do the same for you
[01:13] <auro> auo
[01:13] <frogzoo> Luna-Tick: popularity contests are fascist :)
[01:13] <sergiol_elsewher> my sources.list http://rafb.net/paste/results/tRT3e380.html

[01:13] <Asc> Lukas: in my experience, if you open a file in XMMS via double clicking, it clears the playlist.  You might be happier dragging files to the current playlist
[01:13] <tjansson> http://paste.uni.cc/8765
[01:14] <ogamiitto> Asc, thanks for everything
[01:14] <davegoodson> Hey, is there any way to fix this? when i click a window i need to click the title bar to bring it into focus when there is another window on top of it.
[01:14] <Asc> ogamiitto: Okay.  I just started a new compile (for my specific processor, too)
[01:15] <ogamiitto> Asc, good luck, and good bye
[01:15] <Asc> ogamiitto: Thanks for testing, too.

[01:17] <laucky> hello everyone, my fglrx stopped working after the last update (edgy) . X says "fglrx: module requirement mismatch". btw. the fglrx-module is listed in lsmod
[01:17] <laucky> any ideay how 2 get around this
[01:18] <_delirium> I am using Ubuntu 6.06 AMD 64, and I tries to enable Large Page Support, but the option doesnt seem to be there - cat /proc/meminfo | grep Huge - returns nothing? is Large Page Support disabled?
[01:18] <davegoodson> Hey, is there any way to fix this? when i click a window i need to click the title bar to bring it into focus when there is another window on top of it.
[01:19] <frogzoo> _delirium: is large page support a 64bit attribute?
[01:19] <Lukas> Asc: I can do XMMS via couble click, which add song to the playlist.  command: xmms -e
[01:19] <webben> Could the firefox logo be a multiverse package?
[01:19] <detectiveinspekt> where is the config file for networking?
[01:20] <frogzoo> webben: nope - mozilla tm won't allow it
[01:20] <cotroler>  got this error when installing azureus: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19091
[01:20] <frogzoo> detectiveinspekt: /etc/network/interfaces
[01:20] <sergiol_elsewher> can somebody do "locate pg_hba.conf"
[01:20] <Asc> Lukas: nifty.  I'll look into enabling that.
[01:20] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: zilch
[01:20] <webben> frogzoo: because it doesn't count as complete official stable binary, just the logo on its own?
[01:21] <sergiol_elsewher> and with the result of that "dpkg -S $result"
[01:21] <frogzoo> webben: the image is trademarked, hence not redistributable
[01:21] <laucky> @davegoodson: perhaps system->settings-> windows
[01:21] <sergiol_elsewher> where $result is result of locate
[01:21] <sergiol_elsewher> PLEASE
[01:21] <gean> davegoodson, there are many possibilities to choose the window behaviour, the old Linux feeling has been replaced by the ``click to focus'' strategy... think some System->Preferences gives u the chance to choose what u want
[01:21] <longwave> sergiol_elsewher: pg_hba.conf is installed as part of the postgresql package
[01:21] <detectiveinspekt> what do I do if the dns in my resolv.conf keeps changing
[01:21] <detectiveinspekt> and i have to reset it again
[01:21] <sergiol_elsewher> longwave: no
[01:21] <jrib> sergiol_elsewher: use packages.ubuntu.com to search for files, afaict no package has that file though the postgresql packages have samples...
[01:21] <webben> frogzoo: well, it's redistributable under certian conditions surely -- i mean you can stick firefox on a CD and redistribute it
[01:21] <sergiol_elsewher> i found not it
[01:21] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: I begin to suspect that file doesn't even exist
[01:22] <Lukas> Asc:thanks for intrest
[01:22] <frogzoo> sergiol_elsewher: pastebin the file
[01:22] <longwave> sergiol_elsewher: postgresql installs /usr/share/postgresql/7.4/pg_hba.conf.sample which you can use as a sample, or i believe the postinst script installs a copy for you anyway
[01:22] <Luna-Tick> Webben: the issue is quality control
[01:22] <Luna-Tick> Firefox don't let people who change the program use the logo
[01:23] <Luna-Tick> This means that those that have an official build can tell
[01:23] <Seveas> sergiol_elsewher, pg_hba.conf lives in /etc/postgresql/8.1/main (if using pg 8.1)
[01:23] <Luna-Tick> And Ubuntu makes changes to the official builds
[01:23] <Luna-Tick> (please correct me if I am wrong)
[01:23] <gean> this ubuntu upgrade makes me crazzzy, no hibernate, screen preferences are reduced (although dpkg-reconfigure run many times !) and TeX (tetex-*) was not properly installed !
[01:23] <Seveas> Luna-Tick, you're right 
[01:23] <sergiol_elsewher> ok can now you do dpkg -S of that filepath?
[01:23] <webben> Luna-Tick: i see ... i wonder whether Mozilla could be persuaded to make official builds for ubuntu
[01:23] <longwave> Luna-Tick: you're correct
[01:24] <Seveas> webben, ubuntu won't be persuaded to accept them
[01:24] <webben> Seveas: really? what's the problem with that from Ubuntu's POV?
[01:24] <Seveas> webben, Ubuntu builds packages by itself
[01:25] <GeorgX> hi
[01:25] <h3x0r> i wish somebody would fix the lighttpd -7 fork problem
[01:25] <sergiol_elsewher> Seveas:
[01:25] <sergiol_elsewher> please
[01:25] <webben> Seveas: well, it should really be theoretically possible to have a joint-building process involving both QA teams
[01:25] <h3x0r> fork from debian that is
[01:25] <Seveas> theoretically yes
[01:25] <longwave> webben: it is possible, but why would mozilla foundation want to do that?
[01:25] <longwave> they already produce a working version of firefox, if ubuntu wants to package their own then that's up to them
[01:25] <GeorgX> does anyone here use an ati radeon card with the drivers from ati?
[01:25] <ompaul> webben, dreams - and why would the ubuntu people want to do that
[01:25] <sergiol_elsewher> dpkg -S /etc/postgresql/8.1/main/pg_hba.conf
[01:26] <longwave> sergiol_elsewher: pg_hba.conf is not owned by any package, it is created by the post-install script i believe
[01:26] <h3x0r> The lighttpd package -3 currently available for ubuntu is broken with php4
[01:26] <Seveas> sergiol_elsewher, the file is created by the postinst, so it's not in any package list
[01:26] <GeorgX> they work fine for me, except that I can't get it to work with a resolution higher than 1024x768
[01:26] <webben> Longwave: because Firefox depends not only on its technical advantages, but on its brand power (that's why they trademark the logos in the first place)
[01:26] <frogzoo> GeorgX: for most purposes, the latest fglrx is better
[01:26] <h3x0r> which makes it pretty useless
[01:26] <GeorgX> and it only works in 24 bit mode
[01:26] <webben> if your product appears sans branding, that's bad
[01:26] <webben> (it's also bad from a user perspective, and that affects your product too)
[01:27] <laucky> frgzoo: you have knowledge about that fglrx?
[01:27] <longwave> webben: but then if they produce a ubuntu version, someone would want a fedora version and a debian version and so on, and they don't have the resources to support all that
[01:27] <blaamann> I can find a package with 'apt-file search packageName', but when i try to install it with 'apt-get install packageName' it says it does not exist. What is wrong ?
[01:27] <GeorgX> @frogzoo: I tried them before, same problem
[01:27] <Lukas> .
[01:27] <frogzoo> !fixres > GeorgX
[01:27] <webben> longwave: well, there are already teams working on those versions, so ideally it would be a matter of simply incorporating those groups under a common umbrella process
[01:27] <sl021> hi
[01:28] <_delirium> frogzoo: im not sure, its certainly available on 32bit SuSE, its something that was added to the 2.6 kernel - http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/dagastine?entry=java_se_tuning_tip_large
[01:28] <longwave> webben: at least it is still called "firefox" in the ubuntu build, just because there's a different icon does not dilute the brand very much
[01:28] <GeorgX> @frogzoo: is fixres a tool?
[01:28] <_delirium> fo0bar: see the linux section
[01:28] <frogzoo> GeorgX: if 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' doesn't work, try setting horizsync/vertrefresh in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:28] <_delirium> frogzoo: see the linux section
[01:28] <webben> longwave: oh, i agree, it could be even more diluted
[01:28] <frogzoo> GeorgX: read your pm
[01:28] <sl021> i need help with installing ubuntu dual-booting with windows
[01:28] <jrib> blaamann: maybe apt-get and apt-file were updated at different times and there were changes in the mean time.  What package?
[01:28] <GeorgX> @frogzoo:  cool thanx, that may help
[01:29] <laucky> frogzoo: X has a module requirement mismatch with fglrx, what do ya think i have 2 do
[01:29] <longwave> blaamann: what is the package in question?
[01:29] <ompaul> webben, to try and understand what our trying to influence have a listen to this talk by Alan Cox (a noted kernel hacker, and serial port leader)  on open source projects and they way the interact with the world around them http://bigbro.skynet.ie/resources/ogg/AlanCox_UL_20060513.ogg it is offtopic for here but if you want to discuss it chat about it in #ubuntu-offotopic
[01:29] <blaamann> jrib: I've updated them both. It is the dvdrip package
[01:29] <dcomsa> can someone tell me a good file manager, with twin panels?
[01:29] <ompaul> webben, s/our/your
[01:29] <sergiol_elsewher> where can i find the the post-install script?
[01:29] <ardchoille> blaamann: Tried gnome commander?
[01:29] <webben> ompal: thanks :)
[01:29] <jrib> blaamann: pastebin your sources.list please
[01:29] <longwave> blaamann: dvdrip should install if you have the multiverse repository enabled
[01:30] <ardchoille> !info gnome-commander
[01:30] <ubotu> gnome-commander: nice and fast file manager for the GNOME desktop. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1.1.7-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 550 kB, installed size 2228 kB
[01:30] <frogzoo> laucky: dunno, it just worked for me
[01:30] <ompaul> dcomsa, you can use nautilus and change the view and same in konqueror or install mc midnight commander amoug other things
[01:30] <ardchoille> blaamann: sorry about that
[01:30] <laucky> frog: u have edgy?
[01:30] <frogzoo> laucky: dapper
[01:30] <ardchoille> dcomsa: Tried gnome commander?
[01:30] <sergiol_elsewher> where can i find the the post-install script?
[01:30] <dcomsa> ompaul: does nautilus has an option for twin view?
[01:30] <dcomsa> ardchoille: yes
[01:31] <laucky> frog: well, i think, it's a edgy problem. but thank you nevertheless
[01:31] <frogzoo> dcomsa: regrettably, no
[01:31] <jrib> sergiol_elsewher: debian/*.postinst ?
[01:32] <dcomsa> i'm using bc commander now, but it's not very powerfull
[01:32] <ompaul> dcomsa, check out the little drop down bar at places it might do what you want
[01:32] <johan__> I've totally forgotten the name for the app that allows you to use windows drivers for your wifi card...what's the name?
[01:32] <longwave> johan__: ndiswrapper?
[01:33] <Luna-Tick> sergiol: I believe that longwave meant that the file is created when you install postgresql
[01:33] <johan__> longwave: exactly. thanks
[01:33] <dcomsa> ompaul: what drop down bar?
[01:33] <Luna-Tick> according to http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/client-authentication.html , "A default    pg_hba.conf file is installed when the data    directory is initialized by initdb."
[01:33] <dcomsa> ompaul: in nautilus?
[01:33] <blaamann> longwave: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19092
[01:35] <longwave> blaamann: on line 28 in that pastebin, you need to add "multiverse" after "universe", then apt-get update, then you will be able to install dvdrip
[01:35] <Luna-Tick> longwave: avoiding guis?
[01:35] <Ronz> i've got an external hard drive that is border-line dead. once i forge the data that i can off of it, should a format help, or does it sound like its gone?
[01:36] <blaamann> longwave: Thanks, I thought that if apt-file found it apt-get would install it
[01:36] <longwave> i am just used to doing everything the command line way :)
[01:36] <Luna-Tick> Ronz: I would guess that it depended what was wrong with it. If it is really dead then... well... it is really dead.
[01:37] <longwave> Ronz: what do you mean by border-line dead? if it is reporting SMART errors, or you get errors in your kernel log, then it's probably best just to throw it away
[01:37] <dcomsa> on edgy: after an update, the X server crashed with something related to ABI versions. does anyone know a fix for that? (i have an ATI card)
[01:37] <godfather> hi guys
[01:37] <Luna-Tick> Hi
[01:37] <Ronz> longwave, Luna-Tick , it will work fine for about 10 minutes, then i get an I/O error
[01:37] <godfather> g'day everybody
[01:37] <fredy> hello
[01:38] <godfather> i'm looking for a winmx like program
[01:38] <godfather> anyone can help me?
[01:38] <Ronz> godfather, azureus
[01:38] <Luna-Tick> Probably amule
[01:38] <void^> dcomsa: i think it's not a good idea to use fglrx drivers on edgy, but you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:38] <Ronz> or limewire
[01:38] <godfather> i've got amule
[01:39] <gean> better then azureus (just an own taste): amule, or directly the bittorrentz
[01:39] <godfather> but i'm looking for a music filesharing
[01:39] <dcomsa> void^: the channel is pretty quiet, so i thought anyone here knows
[01:39] <dcomsa> void^: and if i used fglrx drivers, how can i change them?
[01:40] <Luna-Tick> Ronz: I would personally give it a format and see whether it helped, but I wouldn't expect it to.
[01:40] <Luna-Tick> But I'm nothing like an expert.
[01:40] <Ronz> thats what i was thinking Luna-Tick . gotta try to forge all my stuff off of it. =/
[01:40] <gean> godfather: make sure u also install streamtuner & streamripper, it's ``just radio'' but radio is more...
[01:40] <Ronz> 80 gigs / 4 years of files
[01:40] <Ronz> lol
[01:41] <Ronz> thanks! time to get ready for work
[01:41] <Ronz> later al
[01:41] <Ronz> l
[01:41] <ompaul> dcomsa, sorry s/bar/box the word places

[01:43] <godfather> for your helpgood holyday for everybody
[01:44] <void^> dcomsa: edit your xorg.conf, replace fglrx with radeon or vesa (and probably add # in front of fglrx specific options)

[01:47] <nemlah> A quick question regarding a memory leak with xorg.. is there a fix somewhere?
[01:48] <nemlah> changing to linux for efficiency doesn't make much sense if i have a 100MB xserver running
[01:48] <Luna-Tick> sergiol: I believe that longwave meant that the file is created when you install postgresql
[01:48] <Luna-Tick> according to http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/client-authentication.html , "A default    pg_hba.conf file is installed when the data    directory is initialized by initdb."

[01:49] <PingunZ> hi , can someone tell me HOW to use wiki ( edit it etc ) just a guide ...
[01:49] <sopido> hi i got a problem mounting a vfat device. when i "mount /dev/hdh3 /mnt/hdh3 -t vfat -o gid=100,uid=1000" it always sets the owner to root:plugdev (using kernel 2.6.15-26-386) any idea how to fix permissions?

[01:52] <l4sthUnt> Can anyone here help me with WINE on ubuntu
[01:52] <l4sthUnt> i read two full threads on the forums
[01:52] <l4sthUnt> but neither workds
[01:53] <jrib> l4sthUnt: someone might try to help you, but you have to be more specific
[01:53] <jrib> sopido: maybe there are some settings for the disc in fstab?
[01:53] <l4sthUnt> i need to start from scratch
[01:53] <voraistos> or u can just go on winehq
[01:53] <jrib> s/disc/partition
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> Where do i find binaries or sources for WINE for AMD 64
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> all i see is i386
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> but i have amd64
[01:54] <voraistos> on winehq.com ?
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> what do i do
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> i read the forums
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> nothing they say works
[01:54] <jrib> !enter
[01:54] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[01:54] <longwave> sopido: usually in mount, you put the -t and -o options before the device and mount point, try "mount -t vfat -o gid=100,uid=1000 /dev/hdh3 /mnt/hdh3" instead?
[01:54] <l4sthUnt> they're bad with there cases
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> can someone help me plz
[01:55] <k31th> where would i look to see why this  ubuntu box kernel panic'd
[01:55] <voraistos> ok; u dl the source tarball;
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> i need help installing and running WINE on a AMD64
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> dapper
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> can someone help me
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> i've read threads and done google searches
[01:55] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: do u have the source ?
[01:55] <longwave> !patience
[01:55] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:55] <l4sthUnt> no where do i get the source there
[01:55] <cd_rom> can i install packges from edgy branch?
[01:56] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: go on their damn website !
[01:56] <l4sthUnt> they don't have it on the site
[01:56] <l4sthUnt> they just got i386
[01:56] <l4sthUnt> no AMD64
[01:56] <erider> what respository is slime on?
[01:57] <ThunderStruck> cd_rom: its not safe doing that
[01:57] <jrib> !info slime
[01:57] <ubotu> Package slime does not exist in dapper
[01:57] <sopido> jrib, no there are the same settings in fstab, anyway these should be overridden by cmdline.. longwave, no i also tried this but it does not help :(
[01:57] <cd_rom> hmm
[01:57] <cd_rom> ok, thank
[01:57] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: just go o their website. all u need is to compile it for your kernel. they explain everything
[01:58] <cd_rom> it's just that the xchm-1.2 keeps poping up the warning message
[01:58] <codecaine> is there a program for ubuntu for speech to text?
[01:58] <l4sthUnt> is their site http://www.winehq.com/site/download
[01:58] <l4sthUnt> ?
[01:58] <sopido> according to mtab the gid/uid are set .. but not in the filesystem...
[01:58] <l4sthUnt> that's where i am now
[01:58] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: "run 'apt-get build-dep wine'. This will download the needed development packages for your system to make the wine package. Then, run 'apt-get --build source wine', have a snack, and wait for the compiling to finish."
[01:58] <l4sthUnt> kk hope it works
[01:59] <Luna-Tick> l4sthUnt: Is there are reason that you want to build it yourself?
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> no
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> i just want to have it
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> i need to run some small windows appz
[01:59] <trukulo> voraistos, he's using amd64, i don't know if wine is compatible with amd64
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> and it's takin me forever idk why
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> am i the only one who has this much trouble
[01:59] <l4sthUnt> i got ubuntu yesterday
[01:59] <ThunderStruck> i think wine on 64 needs chroot
[01:59] <voraistos> trukulo: i dont know either: thats why compiing it might help
[02:00] <Luna-Tick> Stay calm :)
[02:00] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: why do u need wine ?
[02:00] <erider> if I can't get slime is there lispworks in the respository?
[02:00] <l4sthUnt> E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
[02:00] <l4sthUnt> i get that error
[02:00] <trukulo> l4sthUnt, http://porg.es/blog/wine-on-ubuntu-with-amd64

[02:00] <ubotu> Package lispworks does not exist in dapper

[02:01] <s_spiff> !lisp
[02:01] <ubotu> I know nothing about lisp - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:01] <l4sthUnt> i tryed
[02:01] <l4sthUnt> http://porg.es/blog/wine-on-ubuntu-with-amd64
[02:01] <l4sthUnt> didn't work
[02:01] <longwave> lispworks is commercial software i think, so it won't be in the ubuntu repository
[02:01] <jonh_wendell> does anybody know how to keep the ubuntu server always up to date? like an apt-get update, upgrade each 6 hours, for example?
[02:01] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: the thing is u might not need wine. Things often already exist for linux
[02:01] <wonkydonk> hello
[02:02] <Luna-Tick> I can't see any packages of wine for AMD64... which suggests that it may not work.
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> i can't stop using linux
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> i mean
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> windows
[02:02] <nemlah> quick question
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> i have an external
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> that i se
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> use
[02:02] <longwave> jonh_wendell: cron-apt can automatically run updates for you, though i prefer to know what packages are being updated before they are installed
[02:02] <jrib> l4sthUnt: you could use the i386 version of ubuntu
[02:02] <nemlah> is linux using swap space only after all ram is depleated??
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> didn't work
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> tryed it
[02:02] <trukulo> jonh_wendell, put it on cron
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> wouldn't let me install the .deb
[02:02] <Luna-Tick> What are you wanting to run?
[02:02] <jrib> l4sthUnt: no, I mean actually reinstall your system with the i386 install
[02:02] <l4sthUnt> fserit
[02:02] <Luna-Tick> (which windows app)
[02:03] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: quite  strange
[02:03] <longwave> nemlah: not always, linux might swap something out if you haven't used it for a long time even if there is free ram
[02:03] <longwave> nemlah: then it can reuse the ram for something more useful like disk caching
[02:03] <jonh_wendell> hummm, i'll study cron-apt package
[02:03] <nemlah> so i shouldn't worry about swap used=0?
[02:03] <Talisker> how do I play midi files?
[02:03] <jrib> !midi
[02:03] <ubotu> Trouble playing midi files? Look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[02:04] <voraistos> l4sthUnt: im sorry i am busy right now. please paste bin the errors u get and stuff and ask smo for help :)
[02:04] <nemlah> longwave: you know anything about the xorg memory leak?
[02:04] <longwave> nemlah: no, as long as "free" shows the swap space is available, it's fine
[02:04] <longwave> nemlah: no, sorry
[02:04] <tuxtux> please help for reader mmc to laptop hp?
[02:04] <Luna-Tick> Sorry guys, I have to take off. Good luck all.
[02:04] <longwave> tuxtux: i have an hp laptop and the card reader does not work at all for me, i am not sure if there is any way of making it work
[02:04] <codecaine> how you remove a package with apt?

[02:13] <_d4vid> ThunderStruck, thnx man
[02:16] <MrErnst> Can anyone help me with GD module for php5, it has to do with truetype support, does it differ from windows/apache?
[02:16] <MrErnst> Can that have anything to do with ubuntu font libs?
[02:16] <trukulo> MrErnst: no, that i know
[02:16] <Phazeman> did anyone ever used Minolta Scan Elite II on ubuntu ? i cant seem to be able configuring it to be recognized by sane
[02:16] <trukulo> ubuntu can use truetype too
[02:17] <cotroler> How do you install .deb files in kubuntu?
[02:17] <trukulo> cotroler, sudo dpkg -i file
[02:17] <ThunderStruck> cotroler: dpkg -i file.deb
[02:17] <cotroler> tnx
[02:17] <MrErnst> yes, but i use truetype fonts with php, on a windows server it renders great, but on linux/ubu it doesn't render some of the fonts
[02:18] <trukulo> MrErnst, are the fonts installed on that linux?
[02:19] <MrErnst> no, i call them with php from a folder, some fonts work some don't
[02:19] <tuxtux> bye bye
[02:19] <trukulo> MrErnst, try to install on /usr/share/fonts also
[02:20] <MrErnst> ok, i will but why?
[02:21] <naylor> does anyone know if this modem will work with ubuntu as having lots of winmodem probs and want a modem taht will "just work" so want to buy another cheap internal one

[02:21] <trukulo> MrErnst, don't know, just in case php is looking there
[02:21] <naylor> it says it's linux compatible but i don't trust what ppl put on ebay
[02:22] <naylor> also i don't get whether drivers need installing or not and if they do i'd rather get a modem that will work without having to configure anything or install drivers incase it doesn't work
[02:23] <MrErnst> wel php surely isn't looking for it there, if it can't find it, php give error's
[02:23] <trukulo> you don't have any error?
[02:24] <Navop> K i installed the server on the comp, and now when it reboots I get a blank screen, somethng i noticed was i needed to change my screen size in the install mode or else i would get a blank screen
[02:24] <MrErnst> no error
[02:25] <Navop> so how do i change the screen size on reboot
[02:25] <MrErnst> i know it works, but the font only renders in squares...
[02:25] <erider> how do you remove something from sources.list?
[02:25] <ic56> naylor: winmodems (which generally cost <$20) do not come with drivers for Linux.  A small company is developing drivers for Linux for them but they are closed source and for-pay (not expensive, though).  Modems that will just work, cost >
[02:26] <MrErnst> i think it has to do with font mapping, and how linux/ubu handles that...
[02:26] <ic56> naylor: cost >$100
[02:26] <naylor> ic56, how much? would i be able to get one second hand someplace that will work without trouble, i'm sick of trouble and messing as this system is for someone else and it's all setup but they insist on dialup!!
[02:26] <Navop> So can anyone help me out
[02:27] <sananeee__> whats your problem navoP?

[02:28] <frogzoo> nilesh892003: amarok - & all the rest as well
[02:28] <codecaine> mplayer
[02:29] <sananeee__> maybe that's coz of grub..
[02:29] <CokeNCode> can anyone help me out ?
[02:29] <nilesh892003> how to download mplayer for ubuntu
[02:29] <sananeee__> is grub workin rite ?
[02:29] <sananeee__> and was that your first reboot ?
[02:29] <offs> basically all graphical multimedia players...
[02:29] <codecaine> sudo apt-get install mplayer
[02:29] <Navop> i'm not sure, and yes it was ..let me power up the comp
[02:29] <nilesh892003> its doent works
[02:29] <ic56> naylor: I seem to recall $20 for a driver.  But, bear in mind, drivers are only available for some modems, and eat about 1M of RAM.  The easiest way to tell a modem that doesn't need a driver is to get an external one: anything that connects though a serial port necessarily contains all the logic in its own electronics.
[02:29] <offs> nilesh892003, install automatix
[02:29] <nilesh892003> sudo apt-get mplayer says that file is moved
[02:30] <nilesh892003> k
[02:30] <erider> how do you remove something from sources.list?
[02:30] <naylor> ic56, thanks - that's a real bummer!
[02:30] <sananeee__> i think thats coz of grub problem.. coz when you first reboot .. grub will be activated.. i dont think that's about screen resolution ..
[02:30] <frogzoo> erider: text editor
[02:30] <frogzoo> erider: or remove it from synaptic's repos
[02:31] <erider> frogzoo: it is read-only
[02:31] <ic56> naylor: btw, the demo drivers can be downloaded for free.  So you can test out the basic functionality
[02:31] <erider> frogzoo: there is an error and its not in the list
[02:31] <frogzoo> erider: sudo - or synaptic
[02:31] <Navop> K i get the grub menu...but once i select ubuntu server it goes blank
[02:32] <erider> frogzoo: I'm in synaptic but the line I want to remove is not present
[02:32] <naylor> ic56, thanks i'll give it a shot
[02:32] <ic56> naylor: yw
[02:32] <frogzoo> erider: so use a text editor
[02:33] <Moshulescu> salutare
[02:33] <erider> frogzoo: its read-only
[02:33] <sananeee__> i see.. i m not sure about it .. but i think you can boot your machine with live cd .. then you can change the resolution settings.
[02:33] <trukulo> erider, sudo gedit /foo/bar
[02:33] <erider> trukulo: ok thanks :)

[03:08] <Gambit-> I have a device on it (a printer) and it seems to have hung, or at least isn't responding anymore.
[03:08] <Ignite_> lhds, open Applications -> Add/Remove... and in one of the menus you will find something relating to repositories, enable the "universe" repository
[03:08] <soccio> Gambit: try with "sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart" it will restart also the hal
[03:08] <longwave> Gambit-: you can try unloading and reloading the modules ("rmmod" and "modprobe") but i have had to reboot to fix a non-working usb stack before now
[03:08] <lhds> Ignite_ tryin
[03:08] <Ignite_> lhds, ok
[03:09] <Gambit-> soccio, is that going to bring down the network layer as well?
[03:09] <Ignite_> lhds, after that you should be able to find tvtime in the graphical program <3
[03:09] <lhds> Ignite_ what do you mean i get a list of related topics like internet office other etc etc and no menu
[03:10] <lhds> in add remove
[03:10] <soccio> Gambit, it will restart only minor services like dhcp client and NetworkManager. You don't need them if you are already connected.
[03:11] <Ignite_> lhds, try System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[03:11] <lhds> Ignite_ found it its in synaptic not in add remove
[03:11] <lhds> thanx man ill update the list and try
[03:11] <Ignite_> lhds, sorry, i'm not completely sure off the top of my head, i'm using kubuntu at the minute :)
[03:11] <Ignite_> :D
[03:12] <Gambit-> longwave, Hm, I just get USB printer is busy messages from CUPS :/
[03:12] <Ignite_> Gambit-, what printer is it?
[03:12] <Gambit-> Ignite_, HP LaserJet 1320
[03:12] <Ignite_> ah, sorry, can't help
[03:12] <Gambit-> soccio, that actually errored out with a 'messagebus' not found.
[03:12] <Gambit-> Ignite_, It's had problems pretty consistently over usb, doesn't stay up for very long, etc.
[03:13] <Ignite_> ah
[03:13] <Gambit-> it shows up as 'Hewlett-Packard' if I lsusb, but seems to hang fairly often.
[03:13] <lhds> Ignite_ good job keep the spirit and if your somuch into helpin come over to lebanon help us here :P
[03:13] <Ignite_> lhds, your in lebanon?
[03:14] <lhds> yes

[03:19] <santa99> how can i remove a user which a have added with useradd
[03:19] <lhds> roger that
[03:19] <neutrinomass> santa99: userdel ?
[03:19] <Geert> When trying to install syslog-ng it wants to remove "ubuntu-base ubuntu-minimal". Is it save to continue?
[03:20] <santa99> neutrinomass, thx this was it thx
[03:20] <neutrinomass> santa99: Or if you prefer a GUI, System->Administration-> Users and Groups :)
[03:20] <santa99> neutrinomass, yeah maybe this would be a little better :)
[03:21] <orbin> Geert: read their package descrs.
[03:21] <neutrinomass> Geert: It should be. It's not terribly recommended though as things may break during upgrades ... (AFAIK They are just metapackages )
[03:21] <Ignite_> Geert, its safe to remove ubuntu-minimal.. *checks for ubuntu-base*... yeah thats safe also
[03:21] <longwave> Geert: that is because you will replace sysklogd, which is the standard ubuntu logger
[03:21] <Geert> okay, thanks :)
[03:22] <mezzrricki> Can someone help me with  amounting question?
[03:22] <neutrinomass> mezzrricki: Not unless you ask the question :)
[03:23] <orbin> zing
[03:23] <mezzrricki> Well I'm trying to mount my memory stick reader, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to add to my fstab
[03:23] <Leeif> i cant download the file listed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InitNG#usplash
[03:24] <gatekeeper> mezzrricki: this might help: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/cli.html
[03:24] <Leeif> this one: http://debian.flomertens.keo.in/initng-usplash_1.0-2_i386.deb
[03:24] <Leeif> anyone knows where to get it?
[03:25] <Leeif> or can anyone download it?
[03:25] <mezzrricki> I know the commands I just can't find the mountable device
[03:25] <sladen> maybe that website has disappeared, it would be handy if it was attached rather than linking to somebody's ADSL line
[03:25] <gatekeeper> mezzrricki: your memory stick should automatically be detectected if it's plugged in at boot up
[03:26] <mezzrricki> alright I'll try rebooting
[03:26] <mezzrricki> If I don't come back then thank you.
[03:26] <Leeif> sladen: yes. :(
[03:30] <mezzrricki> I'm back....and it didn't do anything
[03:31] <mezzrricki> the reader it self is built into the laptop
[03:31] <longwave> mezzrricki: on my laptop, the card reader is not supported in ubuntu :(
[03:31] <fistandantilus> nor mine
[03:31] <mezzrricki> hmmmm darn
[03:32] <gatekeeper> hal doesn't work on your laptop longwave?
[03:34] <willmc> whats the command in terminal to change permissions on a dir so its user read/writeable?
[03:34] <longwave> hal works, and if you insert a card there is some output in dmesg, but it cannot mount the card after that :(
[03:34] <longwave> willmc: do you mean for all users, or just the current user
[03:34] <b1shop> anyone know of disk encryption software that supports dual booting?
[03:34] <gatekeeper> that's a bit pants :-(
[03:34] <lhds> how to run a scan in tvtime to see if it has seen the correct card and its working?
[03:35] <Zildjian> im a newb and would like to know what the best help site for ubuntu
[03:35] <longwave> Zildjian: the official wiki and forums are pretty good
[03:35] <Zildjian> cool thanks alot
[03:35] <willmc> Zildjian: the forums!
[03:35] <longwave> and of course you can ask here if you are having a specific problem :)
[03:35] <lhds> Zildjian sincerely man have tried em all i think that ubuntu is a very respectable distro better than the ex mandrake
[03:36] <gatekeeper> Zildjian: I have also got some usefull links here http://za1012001.googlepages.com/home
[03:36] <willmc> longwave: sorry, just for my username (willmc)

[03:36] <lhds> Zildjian good choice
[03:36] <mezzrricki> is there a full driver for the nvidia 6800 yet
[03:36] <gatekeeper> Zildjian: there is a transition guide on that page I gave you
[03:37] <longwave> willmc: if the directory is owned by willmc, then "chmod o+rw directoryname"
[03:37] <longwave> oops
[03:37] <longwave> that should be "chmod u+rw directoryname"
[03:37] <longwave> "o+rw" means anyone can read/write
[03:37] <Hotwire> hi, how would i go about working out what driver my usb wireless network adapter uses, i need to find out if it uses ndiswrapper or has a real driver, and if it has a real driver what kernel module it uses and what its called

[03:40] <SebastianB> Hi! I just tried to install Ubuntu on my laptop several times. It always stops after "Booting the Kernel" at the very beginning. Installing on my desktop-system with the same dvd worked
[03:40] <theHat> imbrandon: hey`a!, what`s up ?
[03:40] <longwave> SebastianB: what laptop?
[03:40] <SebastianB> acer 1690
[03:41] <theHat> SebastianB: u have to change it, use gnu/linux, use slackware ;)
[03:41] <linrunix> theHat, whatis the truth
[03:41] <imbrandon> hello theHat
[03:41] <theHat> linrunix: i have no puta idea :S
[03:41] <SebastianB> no idea what you're talking about ;)
[03:41] <ardchoille> SebastianB: Which install cd are you using? Desktop or alternate?
[03:41] <theHat> SebastianB: snif snif :,(
[03:41] <SebastianB> dvd
[03:41] <erUSUL> SebastianB: try booting with acpi=off as boot parameter
[03:41] <linrunix> theHat, your kidding
[03:42] <colic> wssss
[03:42] <SebastianB> so i've to type "install acpi=off" ?
[03:42] <theHat> linrunix: why ?
[03:42] <linrunix> cause you are a kid
[03:42] <linrunix> theHat, that make sense right
[03:42] <linrunix> je
[03:42] <linrunix> theHat, and stop flooding
[03:42] <theHat> linrunix: are u virgin ?
[03:42] <erUSUL> SebastianB: are you using alternate cd??
[03:42] <linrunix> theHat, this is a canal serio
[03:42] <SebastianB> no, the dvd with both
[03:43] <theHat> linrunix: shut up fucking fucktard 
[03:43] <linrunix> theHat, yeah
[03:43] <ardchoille> theHat , linrunix Please take ot convo to another channel
[03:43] <linrunix> ardchoille, if you dont help me with my isue
[03:43] <linrunix> what i got to do
[03:43] <linrunix> ardchoille, fuck you
[03:43] <imbrandon> hey
[03:43] <yacek19> I have some harmless problem with firmware_helper. I use acx based card and acx driver. During boot acx firstly try to load tiacxC0D firmware which doesn't exists. So it shows: firmware_helper: main: error loading /lib/firmware/2.6.15-23-386/acx/default/tiacxc0D for device /class/firmware/xxx with driver 'acx_pci'
[03:43] <erUSUL> SebastianB: use the alternate and at the boot promt type acpi=off (e.g. boot: acpi=off <enter>)
[03:44] <yacek19> this is very annoying
[03:44] <lhds> tvtime supports a channel scanner, channel renumbering, channel names, and a list of active channels for browsing.  All of these features are available within the OSD menu system itself. it says but where is that osd menu?
[03:44] <linrunix> ardchoille, are you gay or something like that
[03:44] <imbrandon> dont make me do it again linrunix
[03:44] <SebastianB> erUSUL, thx, I will try it :)
[03:44] <ardchoille> imbrandon: Thank you :)
[03:45] <orbin> can't they just change their nick?
[03:45] <gatekeeper> imbrandon: I thought you where only threatening :-)
[03:46] <colic> someone here have a macbook pro with ubuntu?
[03:46] <Seveas> imbrandon, *prod* 
[03:46] <imbrandon> kk
[03:46] <imbrandon> gotta run Seveas all yours ;)

[03:50] <LTjake> howdy. is there any reason why dapper has apache tomcat 5.0 rather than 5.5?
[03:50] <imbrandon> heh
[03:50] <Krpano> can someone help me ?.....i set to "show visible volumes" in gconf-editor and the wanted volumes are mounted, but they wont appear on the desktop...anyone know why ?
[03:51] <santa99> is there a GUI to adjust samba ?
[03:51] <longwave> santa99: check out the "swat" package
[03:51] <santa99> longwave: will have a look on it thx
[03:52] <Boris^Britva> hello, how can I remote administrate my ubuntu server? ssh only?
[03:52] <orbin> Krpano: what are their mountpoints?
[03:52] <santa99> longwave, how can i open the swat package in my browser
[03:52] <Krpano> orbin : /mnt/sda1 and /mnt/hda1.......i can browse them.but they wont show on the desktop
[03:53] <gatekeeper> santa99: in KDE you can modify File Sharing in System Settings, assume gnome also does that
[03:53] <santa99> gatekeeper, so I was unable to find something suitable
[03:54] <drbreen> how can i make the trash bin to show up on desktop in ubuntu dapper ?
[03:54] <ompaul> hmm
[03:54] <Krpano> drbreen: usa gconf-editor
[03:54] <Krpano> use*
[03:54] <gatekeeper> Boris^Britva: do you want to know how to install or use ssh?
[03:55] <drbreen> krpano: where is the scheme or key for that
[03:55] <drbreen> ?
[03:55] <Krpano> Apps/Nautilus/Desktop
[03:55] <drbreen> tank you
[03:55] <drbreen> thanx
[03:55] <Krpano> :)
[03:55] <Boris^Britva> gatekeeper, I haven't installed ubuntu yet even
[03:55] <Boris^Britva> I lack experience in using linux
[03:55] <Boris^Britva> is there something like radmin in linux?
[03:56] <Boris^Britva> need to set-up the server, but I won't be able to access it manualy every day
[03:56] <LTjake> anyone know why Terminal Server Client (tsclient) doesn't save passwords?
[03:56] <lhds> whats the code if i want to download a software from the terminal
[03:56] <gatekeeper> Boris^Britva: install ubuntu then take a look at this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#SSH_Server
[03:57] <WhiteNinja> lhds: apt-get install package-name
[03:57] <santa99> longwave, how can i manage to open swat with firefox
[03:57] <gatekeeper> Boris^Britva: have you used linux before?
[03:57] <longwave> santa99: try http://localhost:901/
[03:57] <santa99> longwave, unable to connect
[03:57] <Boris^Britva> gatekeeper, sure
[03:57] <santa99> longwave, any ideas what's wrong
[03:58] <Boris^Britva> used a lot of it, but used it as desktop
[03:58] <Boris^Britva> suse @ gnome mainly
[03:58] <Boris^Britva> never used it like server
[03:58] <longwave> santa99: i do not have swat running at the moment so can't help that much, this forum link might be useful though: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=58434
[03:58] <santa99> longwave, ok thx will have a link trough it
[03:58] <gatekeeper> Boris^Britva: there is a Windows to Linux transition guide + other bits: http://za1012001.googlepages.com/home
[03:59] <WhiteNinja> Boris^Britva: u can setup the server, install vnc-server/client and u can do remote-access via laptop or desktop, if that it is, what u want
[03:59] <lhds> other than tvtime witch i dont know how to search channels in it what other software makes my tv card run?
[03:59] <orbin> Krpano: i'm not sure, but i think they either have to be mounted in /media , or it has to have some 'user' option given when mounted
[03:59] <Boris^Britva> gatekeeper, yes, thanks
[03:59] <Boris^Britva> WhiteNinja, yes this is I was thinking about
[03:59] <azcazandco> mcphail: are you about?
[04:00] <gatekeeper> Boris^Britva: hope it helps :-)
[04:00] <Boris^Britva> the only thing - I need to install graphic interface to server machine?
[04:00] <Krpano> orbin: im checking this out......ill try to mount under /media/something to test...wait
[04:00] <WhiteNinja> not realy
[04:00] <WhiteNinja> the vnc-client had to have x11
[04:00] <WhiteNinja> not the server
[04:00] <Boris^Britva> as I see ubuntu-server doesn't include graphical interface
[04:01] <WhiteNinja> but it would help if u sometimes can start x11 on the server, too, if u r not used to linux :-)
[04:01] <WhiteNinja> x11 is a package.. not needed, but could be installed on servers, too
[04:02] <longwave> Boris^Britva: if you are comfortable with only the command line, you should just use ssh to connect to your server
[04:02] <azcazandco> anyone here used phtorec before?
[04:02] <azcazandco> photorec even
[04:02] <puppet> boris^britva: you dont need x on a server
[04:02] <Boris^Britva> longwave, this is the problem - I'm not comfortable with cmd only :)
[04:02] <Boris^Britva> puppet, this is nice, ty :)
[04:03] <pike_> Boris^Britva: i would look at freenx as alternative to vnc.  vnc is good on lan but internet can be a little slow
[04:03] <sarah> salut
[04:03] <WhiteNinja> then install the x11-package, u dont have to start it automatically at reboot-times... u can do remote-access nevertheless with vnc or ssh
[04:03] <miano> sarah, salut
[04:03] <ardchoille> Boris^Britva: Do what I did, set aside an hour per day to use only cli and read some man pages. After a while, you'll be so comfy in it that it might be all you use :)
[04:04] <amine> oui
[04:04] <amine> comment ca va,
[04:04] <amine> je suis du maroc et toi
[04:04] <lhds> other than tvtime witch i dont know how to search channels in it what other software makes my tv card run?
[04:04] <Boris^Britva> ardchoille, time will be needed for that :) And I've got none atm
[04:04] <miano> je suis kenyan

[04:05] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:05] <Boris^Britva> well I see what I can do, don't think that setting up a simple httpd+php+mysql will be a big problem
[04:05] <merlander> hi - is there an ubuntu ppc channel?
[04:05] <sl021> lol
[04:06] <orbin> yacek19: try sys > prefs > sound
[04:06] <amine> ravi de faire ta connaissance
[04:06] <amine> quoi de neuf sur le net
[04:06] <Boris^Britva> pike_, freenx is not included to standart install iso, right? ^^
[04:07] <ardchoille> amine: You might be able to get help with an issue if you speak English
[04:07] <yacek19> orbin and how to turn it off system-wide?
[04:07] <snoops> Boris^Britva right
[04:07] <zsh> amine, allez #ubuntu-fr, la discussion ici est en anglais
[04:07] <amine> ok
[04:07] <amine> thank you
[04:07] <dr_willis> !freenx
[04:07] <ubotu> freenx is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeNX
[04:07] <pike_> Boris^Britva: right. you can look at it at wiki.ubuntu.com. main thing for a server is ssh access
[04:07] <kobbi> i'm trying to install the amd64 kernel, but it's missing from Base System-Restricted section in Synaptic... what should i do ???
[04:07] <orbin> yacek19: sorry, meaning?
[04:07] <yacek19> it turned it off onlyin gnome
[04:08] <Boris^Britva> found it @ http://freenx.berlios.de/download.php
[04:08] <yacek19> and it still beeps in pure terminal
[04:08] <Concord_Dawn> Hi everyone. I recently installed Hoary on a Dell Latitude D610, only to find that GDM refused to display (as in, the screen didn't work), however, I was able to use the command line. Does anyone know if this is fixed with the GDM version included in Dapper?
[04:08] <pike_> Boris^Britva: the wiki has instructions specific to ubuntu
[04:09] <Concord_Dawn> !package
[04:09] <ubotu> I know nothing about package - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:09] <Concord_Dawn> !help
[04:09] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[04:09] <orbin> yacek19: quick google came up w/ : setterm -blength 0
[04:09] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: I haven't had any problems with GDM in Dapper.
[04:09] <Concord_Dawn> ardchoille: Are you using a Dell Latitude D610?
[04:09] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: Oh, no, sorry about that.
[04:09] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: sometimes xserver-xorg cant handle tft-monitors in the right way.. try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg manually... mostly it helps
[04:09] <orbin> yacek19: and for X11: 'xset b off' ... that will work for every DE, not just gnome
[04:10] <pike_> Boris^Britva: if its your first time with linux i would at least put xubuntu on it for gui
[04:10] <Concord_Dawn> WhiteNinja: Thanks, but I thought that laptops had LCD screens?
[04:10] <Sh4d0w> hi is there anyone using a soundblaster audigy 4 ? i like to buy this card but i am not sure if it is supported by ubuntu i onyl find infos to audigy 2
[04:10] <WhiteNinja> y... i meant them *laughing
[04:11] <WhiteNinja> sorry.. no native english-ppl
[04:11] <Boris^Britva> pike_, not with linux
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> ok. Thanks. After it's done installing Windows for dual-boot I'll try it.
[04:11] <Boris^Britva> first time with remote administrating
[04:11] <Boris^Britva> and setting up server
[04:11] <lhds> does kde software runs on gnome? kdetv for ex
[04:11] <Boris^Britva> I have suse now as a 2nd os
[04:11] <Concord_Dawn> lhds: Possibly. I think you can find a program that will let you run KDE stuff on Gnome.
[04:12] <Boris^Britva> I'll setup ubuntu, so I can administrate freely
[04:12] <ardchoille> lhds: I haven't seen a kde app that won't run in gnome
[04:12] <phenex> lhds, as long as you have QT and the needed kde packages sure...
[04:12] <snoops> yeah..but the kdelibs are required to run kde software...it will work on gnome though lhds
[04:12] <Concord_Dawn> lhds: You'll basically have KDE and Gnome installed together. It's got a rather large overhead.
[04:12] <WhiteNinja> Boris^Britva: the easiest way would be a setup with knoppix-live-dvd... the hardware-detection would be the best for every linux (my opinion) and u can do all
[04:12] <pike_> Boris^Britva: ah
[04:13] <tengil> umm i tried installing flash for firefox/mozilla with no luck. says Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported. can i get flash reader for firefox with this architechture?
[04:13] <Concord_Dawn> tengil: You looked in the wiki?
[04:14] <tengil> i guess i didnt sorry
[04:14] <brentc> anyone use root-tail ?
[04:14] <WhiteNinja> installing flash is like eating children :-)
[04:14] <tengil> WhiteNinja: i kinda agree. but a few pages has it that i want to read
[04:14] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. has anyone designed an app that can rotate desktop background images? My cheap LCD monitor burns in SOo fast .. I think that might help (dual monitors, xgl, xinerama, CRT/LCD) ..
[04:15] <tengil> T
[04:15] <dswillia74437> what is the easiest way of installing PEAR on dapper?
[04:15] <lhds> is there a way to auto uncheck the list in software updates and than reselect the packages to install? or do i have to go through all of the list?
[04:15] <WhiteNinja> NineTeen67Comet: kde or xfce has a feature build-in for that purpose
[04:15] <WhiteNinja> just look for background-settings
[04:15] <longwave> dswillia74437: install the php4-pear package?
[04:15] <NineTeen67Comet> WhiteNinja: Know if Gnome's got it?
[04:16] <klees> can i rip cd's in MP3 VBR format with grip?
[04:16] <lhds> this is one of the channels where the ? is the most typed letter
[04:16] <b1shop> man.  the gnome battery applet needs an update
[04:16] <b1shop> it's WAY off
[04:16] <WhiteNinja> gnome hasnt it (so far i know), it looks to be for working ppl :-)
[04:16] <merlander_> hi - having problems with hfsplus partition - whatever I set in fstab it's being mounted with its own permissions - suggestions of file_umask etc. in FAQ give bad option errors
[04:16] <santa99> how can i list up the users which are registrated in samba ?
[04:16] <sl021> lolz
[04:16] <Concord_Dawn> dswillia74437: PEAR for PHP?
[04:17] <Concord_Dawn> lhds: What do you mean?
[04:17] <Concord_Dawn> Like reinstall all the software that you updated?
[04:17] <Jaykul> Hey, I just finished an install of 6.06 server ... and apt-get seems to just stall at "Working[0%] " ... I checked that I can ssh and browse out, so I'm a bit confused what's going on.  Any ideas?
[04:17] <ardchoille> klees: You can use grip to rip a music CD to mp3 files, but you need to install lame. I'm not sure what VBR means
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> Jaykul: Switch mirrors?
[04:18] <tengil> Concord_Dawn: is it this one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava?highlight=%28flash%29
[04:18] <b1shop> Variable Bit Rate
[04:18] <klees> MPEG 1 Layer 3 VBR
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> ardchoille: Variable Bit Rate
[04:18] <ardchoille> Ahh
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> meaning that the bitrate is only high when it needs to be.
[04:18] <klees> is that 320?
[04:18] <WhiteNinja> Jaykul: looks like ur network-config is able to reach the internet
[04:18] <ardchoille> Jaykul: Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin?
[04:18] <pike_> Jaykul: is the cdrom entry in sources.list commented out? doesnt sound like thats it but.. never know
[04:18] <Concord_Dawn> It's the best compromise between filesize and quality.
[04:18] <nalioth> ardchoille: VBR = Variable Bit Rate.  means that for when there is much music or sound, there is lots of data and during silence there is little data
[04:19] <s_spiff> can gnome themes be discussed here?
[04:19] <longwave> klees: in VBR the bitrate changes all the time between 64 and 320, so there's no wasted space but high quality at the same time
[04:19] <ardchoille> nalioth: That's great.. I'm glad someone thought of it
[04:19] <klees> ok
[04:19] <klees> how can i rip/encode in VBR?
[04:19] <nalioth> ardchoille: as opposed to the static bit rate, which uses the same amount of data for silence or crescendo
[04:19] <Jaykul> ardchoille / Concord_Dawn: ok, i'm gonna try changing sources ... but I gotta run down the other room, 'cause what I'm trying to apt-get install is openssh-server ;-p
[04:19] <Concord_Dawn> tengil: That's it I think. Try it. You can always reverse the changes later.
[04:20] <snoops> I'm looking for a file browser which lets me view the contents of as many folders as I want in one view? eg instead of the list just displaying what's in /home/user/stuff it displays that and /home/user/otherstuff?
[04:20] <ardchoille> nalioth: Ahh
[04:20] <whaley_work> s_spiff: perhaps #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:20] <Concord_Dawn> snoops: terminal :-P
[04:20] <longwave> klees: depends on what you are using to rip and encode, in lame there are command line options to set VBR, read the documentation
[04:20] <Concord_Dawn> klees: Check the wiki. The wiki knows EVERYTHING.
[04:20] <klees> longwave: im using grip
[04:20] <snoops> hmm how can I do that in terminal Concord_Dawn?
[04:21] <sproingie> snoops: i know of none that would do that and i've tried many file managers.  how about using two file manager windows?
[04:21] <Concord_Dawn> snoops: pass a bunch of different directories to the ls command (iirc)
[04:21] <drasko> how to see on which machine and disc is some directory?
[04:21] <Concord_Dawn> drasko: grep or locate
[04:21] <longwave> klees: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=183125 has instructions
[04:21] <s_spiff> whaley, ok np.. will check it out
[04:21] <sproingie> snoops: unless you're looking for some kind of norton commander type thing, in which case there's a lot
[04:21] <snoops> sproingie I'm wanting to view the contents of 6 directories..opening 6 file browsing windows then having to search through each to find the file I want is a bit heh
[04:21] <klees> thx guys
[04:22] <santa99> which program would you suggest to use for cutting movies from a DV-Cam
[04:22] <sproingie> snoops: i'm not sure how you propose to view all 6 at once without at least multiple windows or panes
[04:22] <Concord_Dawn> snoops: grep!!!
[04:22] <drasko> Concord_Dawn: grep what? Can you give an example?
[04:22] <sproingie> snoops: konqueror will let you have as many independent panes as you want
[04:22] <Concord_Dawn> drasko: grep --help will help you
[04:22] <ardchoille> snoops: You might see if something like gnome commander has a tabbed ui
[04:23] <drasko> Concord_Dawn: I ment the example of grepping for dir.
[04:23] <longwave> drasko: if you know the filename or even part of the filename, just do "locate filename" and it will list all places that filename matches
[04:23] <Concord_Dawn> drasko: search through grep --help. It's in there.
[04:23] <sproingie> drasko: unless you're looking for a file by its thumbnail image, you probably don't want a gui file manager to track down a file in unknown locations
[04:23] <snoops> sproingie well for instance in nautilus when I click search it has a new coloured pane for allowing me to filter by filetype.. I can click the + sign and select another directory.. do that a few tiems to add a few directories..but it only searches the last directory added
[04:23] <sproingie> drasko: try beagle, and add the search bar to your gnome panel
[04:24] <drbreen_> sproingie: how exactly can i get the search bar to work with beagle ?
[04:24] <drbreen_> i apt-get install beagle and then ?
[04:24] <Concord_Dawn> I've noticed that Linux has lost a lot of it's command line roots and switched over to the more GUIy (read: gooey) side of things. Probably from all the Windows users fed up with Windows.
[04:24] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: it's lost nothing, open a terminal and do whatever you want
[04:24] <drbreen_> concord_dawn: probably because sometimes its easier ?
[04:25] <sproingie> drbreen_: rightclick the icon at the left of the search bar, go to preferences, check beagle
[04:25] <_stev_> where do I find my cache list of apt?
[04:25] <minimec> Concord_Dawn: This is not true. ;)
[04:25] <Concord_Dawn> Ng: I know you can do that, but I'm saying that the GUI is now being preferred over command line.
[04:25] <NineTeen67Comet> drbreen_: naw, cli is always there strong as ever .. just gotta want it bad enough .. heheheh ..
[04:25] <Ng> _stev_: /var/cache/apt/
[04:25] <longwave> Concord_Dawn: new users find it less intimidating to get hints and prompts from a gui rather than a bare command line
[04:25] <drbreen_> concord_dawn: i do so much in a terminal - one time a 14 year old asked me what a game it is
[04:25] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: its only because the cpu was earnestly dissatisfied with doing nothing in linux :-)
[04:25] <sproingie> Concord_Dawn: it's "lost" nothing, i still do plenty of work without a cli.  on my gnome desktop i just dont have to
[04:25] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: for some people, sure. I still do as much as I can in a terminal because I think it's quicker
[04:26] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: being able to do things both ways seems like a win-win :)
[04:26] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: Not for everyone.. I use a terminal for my file manager
[04:26] <XplOzIon> is it wise to use "mount --bind " command? to mount a folder in another folder. I used to have ftp server configured with user's path with several folder acces
[04:26] <Concord_Dawn> I disabled gnome on my desktop. It's 8 years old.
[04:26] <Ng> XplOzIon: providing you're careful, it's fine
[04:26] <longwave> XplOzIon: you should probably use symbolic or hard links to do that
[04:26] <Concord_Dawn> XplOzIon: You could symlink.
[04:26] <sproingie> XplOzIon: that's what mount --bind is for.  just avoid loops.
[04:26] <_stev_> Ng: i've looked there and there is a binary pkgcache.bin, is that the file? how can I read that out?
[04:26] <mnp> good morning :)
[04:26] <sproingie> XplOzIon: mount --bind is mostly for escaping out of chroots, since a symlink won't get the right path
[04:26] <XplOzIon> i tried symlinks, they wont work with FTP
[04:26] <drbreen_> nineteen67comet: try to gimp with cli and tehn try to move every file that is $regexp to $ftpserv
[04:26] <drbreen_> in a GUI
[04:27] <Concord_Dawn> XplOzIon: They do, you just need to make sure that the FTPd is set to follow them.
[04:27] <sproingie> XplOzIon: if it's on the same filesystem, you could use a hard link
[04:27] <XplOzIon> Concord_Dawn, where do i see check for that to work?
[04:27] <mnp> anyonek now how to lauch a program from the terminal into a specific workspace? i.e. xchat-gnome (send to workspace 2)
[04:27] <Concord_Dawn> XplOzIon: In the config file? :-P
[04:27] <NineTeen67Comet> drbreen_: lol .. I didn't say it was always easier, just that .. it's there if you want it ..
[04:27] <miano> mnp, its evening here so good evening :)
[04:27] <XplOzIon> Concord_Dawn, :P
[04:27] <Ng> _stev_: what are you trying to find?
[04:27] <Concord_Dawn> mnp: Good question. Always wondered that too.
[04:28] <drbreen_> nineteen67comet: my words.
[04:28] <XplOzIon> Thanks all for the help!
[04:28] <drasko> Concord_Dawn: I can't find it and I am totaly confused. Can you give me a simplest possible example of grepping for sam dir in order to obtain info on which machine and disc it is?
[04:28] <mnp> Concord_Dawn: thanks, been looking but can't find a command. i wish i could see what my shortcut keys where doing when i send a window to a new workspace
[04:28] <drbreen_> FLAMWAR OVER AND OUT !
[04:28] <afief> I have a folder containing SVG and PNG files that crashes nautilus everytime i try to open it
[04:28] <mnp> miano: good evening then. :)
[04:28] <mnp> brb, have laundry downstairs.
[04:29] <_stev_> Ng: well I would like to see the apt-cache list, when you search for a package it is stored in that list, not?
[04:29] <dgm> mnp: I'd like that too, and to be able to set up default applications to start in each workspace when I log in
[04:29] <XplOzIon> what's the difference betwen mount -o bind and mount --bind?
[04:29] <sproingie> XplOzIon: oh yeah ftp typically chroots, so if you really need it, mount --bind is your only solution.  consider the security implications though, ftp chroots for a good reason
[04:29] <drbreen_> yeah we all know GNOME is interface-nazi stuff
[04:29] <Ng> _stev_: hmm, I'm not sure tbh
[04:30] <ardchoille> mnp: You might get some info by running xev and then sending the window to another workspace
[04:30] <afief> How do i change a file name from bash?
[04:30] <b1shop> afief: move it
[04:30] <sproingie> XplOzIon: most --foo options are just syntax sugar for -o foo
[04:30] <hilbert94> Hello! I'm using ubuntu now for a cuple of weeks on my new laptop (before I used Debian for several years). When I click on the red button to log out or shutdown and so on it takes quite a long time for the window to come up. Is this normal? Otherwise the system is very fast.
[04:30] <ardchoille> afief: mv filename1 filename2
[04:30] <longwave> _stev_: "apt-cache dump" will show you the pkgcache.bin in human-readable form
[04:30] <XplOzIon> sproingie, oh i see, thanks ;)
[04:31] <nalioth> !cli > afief
[04:31] <sproingie> XplOzIon: for mount anyway.  -o options are what fstab uses.
[04:31] <quiet> afief, mv filename newfilename
[04:31] <Concord_Dawn> I'm installing Dapper onto my D610 because Windows decided to overwrite GRUB. Will doing this kill my Windows install?
[04:31] <WhiteNinja> hm.. one question... u r able to login at different consoles... how many x-sessions (independent) could be started.. and how?
[04:32] <afief> okay guys:D i got the answer 4 times already:D thank you all
[04:32] <_stev_> longwave: wow great,  didn't know how to read the file out, thx
[04:32] <quiet> Concord_Dawn, yeah probably... if windows is using the whole drive...
[04:32] <XplOzIon> sproingie, yeah i noticed that, now all i need to do is add a HDD to fstab and server done *D
[04:32] <quiet> if not, then no.
[04:32] <sproingie> Concord_Dawn: grub will detect your windows partition and add it to the boot menu.  just make sure you don't blow away the windows partition :)
[04:32] <Concord_Dawn> quiet: It's not. I partitioned the drive with Ubuntu before I installed Windows, but then Ubuntu decided to not work.
[04:32] <afief> My nautilus crashes everytime i try to open a specific folder
[04:32] <longwave> Concord_Dawn: dapper should detect the windows partition - but you should probably have a backup just to be safe :)
[04:32] <quiet>  Concord_Dawn then it should be fine.
[04:32] <Concord_Dawn> longwave: It's a fresh install. Nothing added yet. Not even drivers.'
[04:33] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: So you already had Ubuntu and Windows set up as dual boot?
[04:33] <Concord_Dawn> Ubuntu > Windows at hardware detection.
[04:33] <Hobart> Is security.ubuntu.com down for the count ?
[04:33] <timalot> afief, have a look at ~/.xsession-errors to see whats going on
[04:33] <sproingie> Concord_Dawn: windows is finally shipping a generic kernel with vista that doesnt need a separate driver install pass
[04:33] <Concord_Dawn> ardchoille: I have Ubuntu and Windows installed on the same machine. Currently the Windows installation has overwritten GRUB, so I can't get into Ubuntu without a Live/Install CD.
[04:33] <longwave> Hobart: looks like it
[04:33] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: the right way is.. first install windows.. then linux (windows is changing the mbr !!), when u do it that way u have no problems
[04:33] <Concord_Dawn> sproingie: They've finally come around?
[04:33] <lopzided> what terminal command do i use to add the same extension to every file in a directory?
[04:34] <Concord_Dawn> lopzided: You can use a for loop.
[04:34] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: There is a way to fix the grub mbr entry, that'll save yuo some time from reinstalling ubuntu
[04:34] <ardchoille> !grub
[04:34] <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
[04:34] <ardchoille> !grub > Concord_Dawn
[04:34] <Concord_Dawn> ardchoille: The ubuntu install is Hoary. I'm upgrading to dapper anyways.
[04:34] <lopzided> Concord_Dawn, not sure how to do that...
[04:34] <sproingie> Concord_Dawn: NT server typically installs this way too, but not the desktop
[04:34] <longwave> Hobart: actually, security.ubuntu.com is responding, it's just very very slow; has there been a major security release today?
[04:34] <timalot> lopzided, for name in *; do mv $name to $na,e.ext ; done
[04:34] <timalot> lopzided, for name in *; do mv $name  $na,e.ext ; done
[04:34] <Concord_Dawn> Trust me, I've memorized how to recover grub.
[04:34] <timalot> lopzided, for name in *; do mv $name  $name.ext ; done
[04:34] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: Ahh, ok, good point
[04:35] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: lol
[04:35] <hilbert94> Any hints why the window poping up after the quit-button (to shut down ubuntu) takes such a long time to appear?
[04:35] <sproingie> that little update manager doodad has some interesting features
[04:36] <_stev_> am I right that dpkg doesn't look for extra needed packages like apt does? How can you do that with dpkg?
[04:36] <ardchoille> timalot: You could add a variable to that and it could do a batch rename of many files
[04:36] <lopzided> timalot, thx :)
[04:36] <sproingie> gave me a "firefox restart required" notice.  i've never seen that in apt
[04:36] <yuzifu> hi all,how to install db2html
[04:36] <Jaykul> hey guys, thanks, you were right, it had the CD listed as the first source
[04:37] <Boris^Britva> dumn question - how can I edit files trough console?
[04:37] <Hobart> longwave -> tnx
[04:37] <WhiteNinja> Boris^Britva: install mc... or nano :-)
[04:38] <ardchoille> Boris^Britva: Use a cli editor like vim or nano
[04:38] <WhiteNinja> mc is like norton
[04:38] <phenex> Boris^Britva, use nano editor
[04:38] <brainiac> nano filename
[04:38] <Boris^Britva> ty
[04:38] <brainiac> how can i save iptables generated by rc.firewall? they reset every reboot
[04:39] <Dru> lo all
[04:39] <WhiteNinja> always wondering how one can do a console-install without good old midnight-commander :-)
[04:39] <dr_willis> WhiteNinja,  thats my FileManager of Choise!
[04:39] <dr_willis> :P
[04:39] <ardchoille> dr_willis: mine too
[04:39] <ardchoille> and editor of choice
[04:39] <WhiteNinja> it works with every os.. so far.. bsd, unix, linux , even windows :)
[04:39] <dagaka> how do I change the username/password for the CUPS web UI at http://localhost:631 ?
[04:40] <ardchoille> screen+irssi+elinks+mutt+bash ROCKS!
[04:40] <Dru> Stupid noob question,, How the hell do I copy files to the USR LIB folder, tried Sudo -S in console but want to drag & drop
[04:40] <quiet> dagaka, it uses the system usernames and passwords
[04:40] <brainiac> sudo nautilus
[04:40] <WhiteNinja> dru.. use midnight-commander *laughing
[04:40] <longwave> ardchoille: i am talking you through irssi and screen right now ;)
[04:40] <ardchoille> Dru: gksudo nautilus
[04:40] <dr_willis> Dru,  learning the shell is a good idea.  midnight commander is good. also.
[04:40] <longwave> *to you
[04:40] <dagaka> what like the root account password?
[04:40] <quiet> yes.
[04:40] <quiet> or user.
[04:41] <brainiac> noone can help me with iptables?
[04:41] <ardchoille> longwave: :D
[04:41] <dagaka> my normal non-root username and password doesn't seem to work
[04:41] <quiet> brainiac,  install firestarter... it will help you.
[04:41] <jrib> dagaka: did you try using system > administration > printing instead of the web interface?
[04:41] <brainiac> no
[04:41] <ardchoille> brainiac: is there a #iptables channel?
[04:41] <phenex> i kind of dislike MC... to much painfull memmories from the 386 times...
[04:41] <brainiac> its a server without x
[04:41] <_stev_> I am using a 386 kernel for my dell latitude D505 laptop with a intel pentium M 1.7Ghz, Is it preferable to install the 686 kernel ?
[04:41] <WhiteNinja> brainiac: install guarddog... or similiar packages.. they have a good help-page
[04:41] <dagaka> jrib yes that is how I first set it up
[04:41] <WhiteNinja> and can do the job for u
[04:41] <longwave> brainiac: there are some scripts called iptables-save and iptables-restore, but i don't really know how they work
[04:41] <pike_> brainiac: do a scritp to automate whatever you do to generate them and set to run at boot maybe
[04:41] <brainiac> yeah it works good
[04:41] <nalioth> brainiac: please don't advise 'sudo nautilus' this will screw up the system
[04:41] <dagaka> I just wanted to change the printing tray
[04:41] <brainiac> but the settings didnt get saved
[04:41] <nalioth> !gksudo
[04:41] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo, as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using sudo {guiapp}
[04:42] <brainiac> they reset after reboot
[04:42] <jrib> dagaka: the information for setting up the web interface is in /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian.gz but what is wrong with using the gui tools now?
[04:42] <dagaka> jrib, thanks
[04:43] <pike_> brainiac: or just paste what you do and maybe ill write it for you. im knda ored anyway..
[04:43] <pike_> bored
[04:43] <jrib> dagaka: it's all the way at the bottom of the document by the way
[04:43] <phenex> nalioth, why would it screw up the system?
[04:43] <dagaka> jrib ok
[04:44] <nalioth> phenex: using 'sudo' for gui apps sometimes changes permissions in your home folder.  this can cause your session to not start
[04:44] <wheels3572> can someone help me with Xchat?
[04:44] <nalioth> !kdesu > phenex
[04:44] <sproingie> phenex: i believe it'll write root's saved configuration to *your* ~/.gnome2 directory
[04:44] <brainiac> pike_: i execute rc.firewall... and everything works as supposed... but after reboot the settings reset
[04:45] <pike_> brainiac: well thats easy enough :)
[04:45] <brainiac> :)
[04:45] <bit_doidao> Hi! I cant export my mysql data with mysqldump with not loosing the accents. Anyone knows how to solve this?
[04:45] <WhiteNinja> never pull the plug.. one solution :-)
[04:45] <brainiac> hehehe
[04:45] <sproingie> bit_doidao: try asking on #mysql
[04:46] <skitzomike> i am tryin to compile wine and when i run the configure tool it tells me the compiler cannot create executubles
[04:46] <WhiteNinja> brainiac.. i didnt read all.. has ur box x11?
[04:47] <brainiac> nope
[04:47] <sproingie> good golly it's amazing how much faster netbeans is on ubuntu than windows.  now if it werent so fugly.
[04:47] <bit_doidao> sproingie, already did :P, but i think that this is a ubuntu issue only, as far as i have a mysql server on a mandrake, and it works well
[04:47] <brainiac> ubuntu server
[04:47] <CarinArr> sproingie, you ain't seen nothing til you use maya in linux
[04:47] <overrider> when running a 3 hour backup wich gzips a set of files and sends them to another machine, the cpu runs at about 40%. is that acceptable for a few hours every night for a server?
[04:47] <skitzomike> anyone know why the compiler wouldnt be able to create executables ?
[04:47] <WhiteNinja> hm... thats why i install x11, using webmin-package.. setup all and then kill x11 :-)
[04:47] <verbose> overrider: yeah, that's fine
[04:47] <CarinArr> sproingie, it sucks your artistic spirit out of you within two minutes of using it
[04:47] <nalioth> skitzomike: sometimes it's the way the configure script is worded
[04:48] <brainiac> na... i have to learn :)
[04:48] <nalioth> skitzomike: you do have build-essential installed, yes?
[04:48] <skitzomike> i should
[04:48] <sproingie> CarinArr: i thought most modelling apps used the same interface on every platform
[04:48] <brainiac> if i want to setuop a server by remote i have to know ho to manage it
[04:48] <CarinArr> sproingie, uses motif in linux:/
[04:48] <skitzomike> yeah i definitly have it
[04:49] <sproingie> CarinArr: wow the horror.  gimme blender's interface any day
[04:49] <Krpano> where is the folder that contain the mouse pointers ?
[04:49] <CarinArr> that's what they used in irix i suppose so they probably couldn't be bothered updating
[04:49] <CarinArr> makes it feel a bit dinosaur like
[04:49] <jrib> skitzomike: make sure binutils got installed with build-essential
[04:49] <nalioth> skitzomike: is there something unsuitable about the wine in the repos?
[04:49] <mnp> ardchoille: what is xev?
[04:49] <skitzomike> im amd64
[04:49] <drbreen_> mnp: a test program for x
[04:50] <skitzomike> so yeah
[04:50] <ardchoille> Krpano: /usr/share/icons
[04:50] <drbreen_> mnp: you can get keycodes and stuff with it
[04:50] <Krpano> thxx
[04:50] <nalioth> skitzomike: ah, i doubt you'll get wine to run then
[04:50] <frogzoo> skitzomike: it's old - latest wine is 0.9.17
[04:50] <sproingie> CarinArr: you'd think they would have used GL in irix (not opengl, gl the widget set)
[04:50] <drbreen_> !xev
[04:50] <ubotu> I know nothing about xev - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:50] <skitzomike> nah i want the newest wine
[04:50] <skitzomike> i have wine working
[04:50] <WhiteNinja> brainiac: what is wrong to install a server with x11, but dont start the x-sessions at reboot-times... but loggin in via ssh or vnc and then do all remotly with x11, then after killing the x-sessions on the server?
[04:50] <mnp> ill check it out thatnks
[04:50] <WhiteNinja> u dont even have to have a monitor on the server
[04:50] <puppet> whiteninja: ugly ;P
[04:51] <CarinArr> sproingie, *shrug* don't know why it's what it is.. just yuk.;)
[04:51] <_stev_> anybody who knows something about the kernel?
[04:51] <WhiteNinja> puppet.. but faster as any other solution
[04:51] <puppet> no
[04:51] <brainiac> WhiteNinja: the traffic and hdspace for x
[04:51] <puppet> not at all
[04:51] <tritium> _stev_: what about it?
[04:51] <puppet> console is fastest way
[04:51] <tulio> !iptables
[04:51] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line), firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing) or shorewall (web interface)
[04:51] <ardchoille> !shorewall
[04:51] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line), firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing) or shorewall (web interface)
[04:51] <WhiteNinja> brainiac.. at today's cpu? not realy
[04:52] <tulio> is there any interface for the iptables??
[04:52] <Concord_Dawn> yes
[04:52] <longwave> WhiteNinja: by having X installed there are more security issues to worry about on your server
[04:52] <Concord_Dawn> !firestarter > tulio
[04:52] <puppet> whiteninja: well console is still faster
[04:52] <puppet> ssh != X session in speed
[04:52] <brainiac> i agree
[04:52] <longwave> and yes, you will never beat the speed of an ssh session
[04:52] <wheels3572> How do I get Xchat to join more then 1 channel on autojoin?
[04:52] <_stev_> tritium: I use the 386 kernel on my laptop (dell latitude D505 intel pentium M 1.7 Ghz) should I use the 686 kernel, if so, what will be the difference?
[04:52] <Concord_Dawn> wheels3572: seperate the channels with a comma.
[04:52] <^ohoel> wheels3572: xchat-gnome?
[04:53] <tulio> Concord_Dawn: tx!
[04:53] <brainiac> is noone using rc.firewall here?
[04:53] <sproingie> wheels: right-click on the channel and click "auto-join on startup".  works for any number of channels
[04:53] <tritium> _stev_: you can, but you don't have to.  It should be faster, as it can take advantage or your CPU better.
[04:53] <Concord_Dawn> _stev_: It shouldn't matter. The kernel is an x86 kernel.
[04:53] <longwave> _stev_: yes, you can use the 686 kernel on that, there may be a slight speed difference but you will probably not notice
[04:53] <wheels3572> Concord_Dawn, ty just a comma or comma and space?
[04:53] <Concord_Dawn> wheels3572: comma.
[04:53] <wheels3572> Concord_Dawn, ok ty
[04:53] <tritium> _stev_: go ahead and "sudo apt-get install linux-686", and give it a try
[04:54] <WhiteNinja> the most common way to have a linux-server is just for home-backup-purposes... i cant see why u have to worry about security issues.. if u r working in industrial-scenes u r better set up bsd-boxes :-)
[04:54] <ardchoille> wheelswitch: Hi :)
[04:54] <Concord_Dawn> I forgot that the Dapper Install CDs come with a live system built in. I thought I downloaded the wrong ISO for a minute.
[04:54] <longwave> WhiteNinja: if it is connected to the internet in any way you should at least take some time to look at security
[04:54] <fintler> WhiteNinja: I work in government....we have an ubuntu box setup for inventory tracking....running bastille with only sshd and apache mod-ssl open
[04:54] <fintler> why should we use bsd? ;P
[04:55] <Concord_Dawn> WhiteNinja: You should always be worried about security.
[04:55] <sproingie> WhiteNinja: that's awful short sighted.  linux has a place, usually for funky filesystems.
[04:55] <ardchoille> wheelswitch: Hi :)
[04:55] <AngryElf> does anybody know of a way to rotate a PDF file 90 degrees?
[04:55] <brainiac> WhiteNinja: yes you are rigt... but i only want to knnow how t permanently save my iptables generated by rc.firewall... no need for x on this one :)
[04:55] <Concord_Dawn> brainiac: Dare I say, look in the wiki?
[04:55] <WhiteNinja> sproingie: then try xen :-)
[04:55] <_stev_> tritium: ok I will, was just wondering why I upgrade to 686
[04:55] <gdb> brainiac: iptables-save > file
[04:56] <brainiac> gdb and what file would that be :)
[04:56] <tulio> Concord_Dawn: do you know how can i start a web server in the port 80??
[04:56] <tritium> _stev_: because the kernel is a better match to your cpu
[04:56] <Larsson-Sweden> Having problem with fonts in Abiword and OO , seems to be some spacing between characters. For example: "Summer" looks like this "sum mer" but not that much spacing. Any ideas?
[04:56] <Concord_Dawn> ardchoille: Tab completion wins, except when you have 850 people in the channel :-P
[04:56] <knewter> how do I find out what wireless chipset I'm using?
[04:56] <gdb> brainiac: It doesn't matter.  It's read in with iptables-restore
[04:56] <longwave> brainiac: whatever file you want, then you use iptables-restore < file to set them up after reboot
[04:56] <sproingie> WhiteNinja: i've been harping and harping on the pros of virtualization provisioning, but they still just want to build everything by slapping a backward RHEL version on it and never updating it
[04:56] <Concord_Dawn> tulio: sudo apt-get install apache
[04:56] <knewter> my wifi stopped working with the latest kernel upgrade...
[04:56] <ardchoille> Concord_Dawn: Indeed
[04:56] <Concord_Dawn> tulio: sudo apt-get install apache2 *
[04:56] <brainiac> ah ok thx
[04:56] <tuliomgui> Concord_Dawn: tomcat... =D
[04:56] <sproingie> WhiteNinja: then whenever we upgrade our hardware, it's reinstall reinstall reinstall
[04:57] <Concord_Dawn> knewter: Ask your manufacturer.
[04:57] <syock> Has anyone here succeeded in compiling wine from CVS for AMD64?
[04:57] <tritium> knewter: did your kernel update not update your restricted modules?
[04:57] <sproingie> WhiteNinja: at least i've moved most tools to a fileserver, but it's still a big pain
[04:57] <Concord_Dawn> tuliomgui: Tomcat is a Java servlet as well. If you're looking for just straight web server with some expansibility, Apache's the way to go.
[04:57] <Concord_Dawn> You can always link them later.
[04:57] <_stev_> tritium: hmm, another question I have, when I type in date and cal I get the right results but with uname -a my clock and date is wrong, how can I change that?
[04:57] <WhiteNinja> sproingie: thats why i am using vmware-workstation since years (thats good enough for "my" security").. the main servers in different virtuell machines.. easy backups :)
[04:57] <sproingie> wow it's jarring to see eclipse come up as brown as the rest of gnome
[04:57] <fintler> knewter: try taking a look at /proc/net/wireless
[04:58] <longwave> _stev_: uname -a shows you the date and time the kernel was built, not the current time
[04:58] <tritium> _stev_: ^^
[04:58] <_stev_> longwave: ooh damn didn't know
[04:58] <WhiteNinja> and i am still able to use every os for my purposes
[04:58] <tuliomgui> Concord_Dawn: i want to use tomcat...i just want to run it on the port 80 but it seems that linux is not allowing
[04:59] <sproingie> WhiteNinja: for me it's not the use of different OS's, it's the transparency of the hardware.  upgrade hardware, just copy the new image to it
[04:59] <coopster> does anyone know of a way, when using Xinerama, to set a 'resistance' to the edge of the monitor, so that the mouse won't just pop over into the second monitor?  kinda like you have resistance on window borders when draggin them?
[04:59] <syock> What does it mean when I get a segment violation while compiling something?
[04:59] <_stev_> longwave: if I use apt it will look for extra needed packages, dpkg doesn't ?
[04:59] <SuperMoonMan> would someone be able to tell me as to why my installation is hanging at 40%? I think I've done everything right and I'm sure all of my hardware is compatible but I'm not able to do the install
[04:59] <sproingie> tuliomgui: you have to be root to listen on port 80.  technically you have to get the "low port" capability, but ibedamned if i know how to get that
[04:59] <Tremitos> sup?
[04:59] <Evil_Ed`> hey
[04:59] <longwave> _stev_: yes, apt will install any dependencies
[05:00] <fintler> syock: it's an annoying error...it probably means that some pointer math is off...try doing a 'make distclean&&make all'
[05:00] <sproingie> syock: while compiling?  your compiler is fubared, probably needs reinstall.  did you do anything funny with your libc?
[05:00] <WhiteNinja> hm... maybe.. but i found it still easier to copy virtual hardware to every os.. it works the same way.. and the overhead of likely 10-20 percentage u dont see in most situations.. maybe xen can do better, but no experiences, yet)
[05:00] <tuliomgui> sproingie: ok, thanks man
[05:00] <fintler> syock : just hope it's a problem with linking..otherwise you need to break out gdb
[05:00] <longwave> syock: if you get an error while compiling, maybe your ram is bad - try running memtest86
[05:00] <tuliomgui> ill look for it another time
[05:01] <tuliomgui> if get to know something ill tell you
[05:01] <_stev_> longwave: is there an option that dpkg can give? otherwise you don't know what to install extra for that program?
[05:01] <tritium> _stev_: what do you mean?
[05:02] <sproingie> tuliomgui: every guide i've seen to getting port 80 with a non-root user involves a port redirector.  which will work, it's just not as nice as granting your process permission to open a low port
[05:02] <Tremitos> that's a secret
[05:02] <Evil_Ed`> dunno
[05:02] <longwave> _stev_: if you use dpkg -I package.deb then it will show you info on the package file
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. deleting files off a usb stick.. and Nautilus makes a .Trash-willis directory and just moves themn there..   theres no easy to make the 'delete permenetly' the default for just that drive is there?
[05:02] <lhds> please please i say :) whats the line to xconf x?
[05:02] <longwave> _stev_: but it depends where the .deb came from, it might not have the right dependencies set for ubuntu
[05:02] <tritium> Dr_Willis: you can set a nautilus pref to include a delete that bypasses the trash
[05:03] <knewter> tuliomgui: there's something in the repositories to allow low ports - search for 'low ports' in the description field
[05:03] <tuliomgui> sproingie: ok
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> tritium,  yea - but i always forget to use that. :P
[05:03] <WhiteNinja> Dr_Willis: u can set up nautilus.. do delet instead of moving to trash
[05:03] <tritium> _stev_: try to stick with ubuntu .deb packages
[05:03] <tritium> Dr_Willis: :)
[05:03] <tuliomgui> knewter: let me see
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> I just want ti to defaulkt to Delete for JUST that stick however. :P
[05:03] <_stev_> tritium: well I you install a package with apt it will look for the needed packages and install extra packages to get it work, dpkg doesn't do that for you, so I was wondering how do I know what that package need to get it up and running
[05:04] <sproingie> knewter: you wouldnt remember how to search descriptions in aptitude, would you?
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> copying videos over for my PSP :) wondered where all my drive space went.
[05:04] <knewter> tuliomgui: once you've got it installed it works by using the command 'whatever-the-command-is -p 80 tomcat' (or something similar)
[05:04] <knewter> it proxies for you
[05:04] <fintler> sproingie: use apt-cache search blah
[05:04] <knewter> sproingie: I'd just pop up synaptic, ctrl+f
[05:04] <mysticalone> How can I update firefox?
[05:04] <longwave> Dr_Willis: that is a known but unfixed bug i am afraid: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/12893
[05:04] <tuliomgui> knewter: i cant find anything in the add/remove
[05:04] <fintler> mysticalone: 'apt-get update&&apt-get dist-upgrade'
[05:05] <|rt|> anyone know why a broadcom wireless adapter would just stopped working with the open source driver?
[05:05] <WhiteNinja> upgrade the whole os just for firefox????
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> ???!!! Sure why not. :P
[05:05] <|rt|> i got around it by going back to ndiswrapper...but are there any known issues with the latest kernel release
[05:06] <nalioth> !firefox > mysticalone
[05:06] <fintler> WhiteNinja: maybe I'm used to being on broadband.....get off my lawn you dialup user ;P
[05:06] <ardchoille> hehe
[05:06] <WhiteNinja> lol... i love bsd.. there u have the newest versions of packages.. without having to upgrade the basic-system :-)
[05:06] <knewter> WhiteNinja: I always just go to getfirefox.com
[05:06] <knewter> installer there works perfectly
[05:06] <tuliomgui> !codecs

[05:07] <coopster> in gnome, does anyone know of a way, when using Xinerama, to set a 'resistance' to the edge of the monitor, so that the mouse won't just pop over into the second monitor?  kinda like you have resistance on window borders when draggin them?
[05:07] <fintler> you can upgrade just firefox....it's just that I don't know what he's running...and doing a dist-upgrade would be the safest thing
[05:07] <knewter> then just symlink its executable to where the old firefox executable was
[05:07] <knewter> no problems
[05:07] <nalioth> !firefox > fintler
[05:07] <fintler> knewter: going to getfirefox.com is a bad idea in ubuntu....use apt
[05:07] <|rt|> WhiteNinja: gentoo is similar in that reguard...sometimes I miss gentoo for that reason...easy to install newer or alternative versions of software while still using the systems package manager
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> Ubuntu's 6 Mo release cycle - sort of overrides the 'gotta update everything all the time' mentality.
[05:07] <brodes18> I cant get my monitor to display resolutions over 1280X1064. I have a Viewsonic VX2025wm which has a native resolution of 1680X1050. When I go to xorg.conf the resolution is there. I even did the wizard and still cant get the resolution higher than 1280X1024 even with the screen resolution utility in gnome. Any help would be very much appreciated
[05:07] <WhiteNinja> fintler.. u can upgrade firefox "inside" firefox.. just go for "help"-- upgrade :-)
[05:08] <fintler> WhiteNinja: ah....yeah...good point :D
[05:08] <tritium> Dr_Willis: but I've got to!  All the time!
[05:08] <pike_> brodes18: lcd?
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> tritium,  yes! you need vim 7.0000000.1.00001 ! :P
[05:08] <coopster> brodes18, in your xorg.conf, under the section "monitor", is the horizontal and vertical frequency set correctly?
[05:08] <brodes18> pike, yup
[05:09] <tritium> Dr_Willis: what?  It's out already!  brb...
[05:09] <Poromenos1> how can I make Ubuntu server retrieve packages from the internet and not ask for the CD?
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> Klik is interesting to mess with also for the latest programs   http://klik.atekon.de/
[05:09] <brodes18> coopster: yes it is
[05:09] <fintler> xf86/xorg probs are a pain in the ass to troubleshoot when you're not sitting in front of the comp...
[05:09] <Concord_Dawn> Poromenos1: Comment out the CD repo in /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:09] <nalioth> Poromenos1: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and put a # in front of the line that begines "deb cdrom"
[05:09] <Poromenos1> Concord_Dawn: Ah, thanks a lot.
[05:09] <longwave> brodes18: try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and see if it lets you select higher resolutions there
[05:09] <|rt|> Dr_Willis: depends...if you're an artist for instance and you need the newest version of blender, gimp, inkscape etc you have to work harder at keeping those packages up to date in ubuntu
[05:09] <Poromenos1> Also, how can I make it send the hostname? Right now I can only access it by IP.
[05:10] <|rt|> Dr_Willis: not to say that the 6 month release cycle is a bad idea for most things
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> send the hostname for what?
[05:10] <WhiteNinja> brodes18: try... dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.... then setup ur monitor-frequenzes by hand.. and use the right driver for ur graphic-card :-)
[05:10] <drbreen_> klik is cool in an internetcafe when i do not want ppl to ask "colud i have opera" ?
[05:10] <yumigator> Does APT delete DEB's after they're installed?
[05:10] <lhds> whats the command to config x ?
[05:10] <brodes18> longwave: I did that and it was there but when I start X it will not go higher than 1280X1024
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> |rt|,  it has good and bad of course.. everything does
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> yumigator: yes.
[05:11] <longwave> yumigator: no, but if you use "apt-get clean" or "apt-get autoclean" then it will
[05:11] <drbreen_> yumigator: apt-get clean
[05:11] <drbreen_> hrhr
[05:11] <sproingie> yumigator: it keeps them around in /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:11] <SuperMoonMan> hmm so would anyone be able to help me figure out why I'm unable to finish the install from the live cd? it's hanging at 40% and I am pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong
[05:11] <Oni-Dracula> anyone know the reason for the following:  after rebooting the system from windows, changing the boot order, and booting into ubuntu - ubuntu will do some crazy things on bootup.  For example, splashy being disabled and full verbose mode enabled.  When things get really screwy is when you try to restart the system during bootup (ctrl+alt+del) and the system beings to shut down...then X starts while the system is shutting down
[05:11] <yumigator> alright, thanks guys
[05:11] <pike_> brodes18: what vid card?
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> Supermoonman: What's it stuck on doing?
[05:11] <srikat> SuperMoonMan: did you chk the CD for errors?
[05:11] <Kaleo> Hello
[05:11] <brodes18> WhiteNinga: I did all that
[05:12] <coopster> brodes18, copy your xorg.conf to pastebin?
[05:12] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: just doing the normal install...I think it says copying files
[05:12] <srikat> Concord_Dawn: using xchat?
[05:12] <brodes18> Pike: intel 845
[05:12] <_stev_> If I login in tty (without  xdm, gdm or kdm) can my X started automatically whithout the command startx?
[05:12] <SuperMoonMan> srikat: yes
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> srikat: No, I'm not. Why?
[05:12] <sergiol> how do i purge the remaining conf files of a package
[05:12] <srikat> yes _stev_
[05:12] <sergiol> after uninstall it
[05:12] <brodes18> coopster: what is pastebin?
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> srikat: I'm sitting on a Windows box currently.
[05:12] <drbreen_> _stev_: why would anyone want that ?
[05:12] <Concord_Dawn> !pastebin brodes18
[05:12] <ubotu> I know nothing about pastebin brodes18 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:12] <fintler> Oni-Dracula: doing a cntl-alt-delete sends a sighalt to init....which then goes and tells all the processes to shut down....some of them don't listen and get a sigkill later on....but it gives them some time first
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> !pastebin > brodes18
[05:13] <drbreen_> _stev_: ist possible
[05:13] <srikat> Concord_Dawn: oh ok, I noticed that you manually typed SuperMoonMan's nick...in Xchat you could type the first few letters and tab
[05:13] <sproingie> _stev_: i dont get the question.  xdm is what starting X automatically means, startx is how you start it without those
[05:13] <fintler> Oni-Dracula: that's the basic idea anyway
[05:13] <coopster> brodes18, read what the bot sent ya
[05:13] <Zambezi> Is there a consolebased taskmanager? Xfcetaskmanager crasches too often.
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> srikat: I didn't type it. I used tab autocomplete. In mIRC it adds a colon instead of a comma.
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> Zambezi: ps -A
[05:13] <sergiol> i did uninstall, but the conf stills stay
[05:13] <sproingie> _stev_: if you think X is already running, ctrl-alt-f7 will switch you to tty7 where X usually is running
[05:13] <Concord_Dawn> sergiol: you need to do apt-get remove --purge
[05:14] <syock> SuperMoonMan: Doing a net install?
[05:14] <srikat> Concord_Dawn: If you had typed his nick, notice the small 'm' in 'moon' --> "[20:41]  <Concord_Dawn> Supermoonman: What's it stuck on doing?"
[05:14] <srikat> his nick has capital M :)
[05:14] <WhiteNinja> Zambezi: for most purposes.. top .. will do :-)
[05:14] <srikat> if you hadn't*
[05:14] <sproingie> Zambezi: you can kill processes with top
[05:14] <Concord_Dawn> srikat: *shrug* I type fast enough that the difference is negligible anyways.
[05:14] <syock> Oh, enough with the nick thing already :)
[05:14] <pike_> anyone using freenx with xfce4? im having some wierd problems
[05:14] <SuperMoonMan> syock: nah I downloaded the live cd and am installing it that way
[05:15] <coopster> in gnome, does anyone know of a way, when using Xinerama, to set a 'resistance' to the edge of the monitor, so that the mouse won't just pop over into the second monitor?  kinda like you have resistance on window borders when dragging them?
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> and btw srikat: You do not look cool trying to show of your XChat skillz.
[05:15] <syock> SuperMoonMan: Oops, I forgot this wasn`t SUSE
[05:15] <srikat> SuperMoonMan: did you chk the CD for errors?
[05:15] <Concord_Dawn> SuperMoonMan: You instaling Dapper?
[05:15] <sergiol> the packages they still stay uninstalled
[05:15] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn:  yes
[05:15] <sergiol> i want them purged
[05:15] <fintler> coopster: I think the ubuntuforums might be a better place to ask that....don't think anyone here knows any more about it than when you asked the first time
[05:16] <brodes18> Concord_Dawn: Im new to this how should I put it into pastebin?
[05:16] <SuperMoonMan> srikat: I thought I did, but I'm gonna do it again right now
[05:16] <WhiteNinja> coopster: if u r meaning... different workplaces.. then u can set up "edges".. but not between the real monitors.. that makes no senses
[05:16] <Larsson-Sweden> Having problems with abiword, and especially with the letter "m" . If i type two in a row, for example "summer" it looks like "sum mer" but not that much spacing. To put it simply, there are two much spacing when using letter m. Any ideas? I suspect a DPI setting but cant find the abiword conf file
[05:16] <coopster> fintler, suppose you're right
[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> SuperMoonMan: Abort the install, restart your machine. Once the menu pops up, select "Check CD for errors"
[05:16] <_stev_> sproingie: well I just want to start my X with my window manager without a graphical login screen
[05:16] <ardchoille> !paste
[05:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:16] <Concord_Dawn> brodes18: By pasting? :-P
[05:16] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: yeah I already started it, I'm halfway done
[05:16] <coopster> WhiteNinja, sure it does, that way, when I am using the top part of the screen on my larger monitor, the mouse wont just pop over to the second monitor and pop back at a lower position on the first monitor
[05:17] <sproingie> Larsson-Sweden: welcome to font handling in linux -- the hinting is horrendous
[05:17] <Concord_Dawn> SuperMoonMan: Do what I suggested. We need to make sure that it's not your install media buggering things up.
[05:17] <Larsson-Sweden> sproingie, so this happens to you too?
[05:17] <nalioth> !verify > SuperMoonMan
[05:17] <Concord_Dawn> Bleh. I need wireless headphones.
[05:18] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: heh well that'd be 2 out of 2, I redownloaded once already because the cd was messed up the first time
[05:18] <WhiteNinja> some binary-driver can handle "clone", "multiple" or "independent" resolutions.. but twinview is exactly, what it says
[05:18] <coopster> Concord_Dawn, I'd highly recommend the ones that motorola have that double as a headset for phones.
[05:18] <_stev_> drbreen_: so it isn't possible?
[05:18] <sproingie> Larsson-Sweden: you can try switching to a different font.  i don't get the problem with times new roman or bitstream vera
[05:18] <Concord_Dawn> SuperMoonMan: Sometimes it's not the ISO that's messed up, but the burning software.
[05:18] <drbreen_> _stev_: it is
[05:18] <drbreen_> _stev_: wait
[05:18] <Concord_Dawn> _stev_: You want to make X not start up when you boot?
[05:19] <syock> ld: Relocatable linking with relocations from format elf64-x86-64 (/usr/lib/libsicuuc.a(ubidi.ao)) to format elf32-i386 (gdi32.J3FDqE.o) is not supported
[05:19] <Rleyh> hi i updated from dapper to edgy by changing 'dapper' to 'edgy' in my sources.list. is there a way to switch back to dapper?
[05:19] <syock> wonder what it means
[05:19] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: hmm I'm just using ISO Recorder I think it's called on the PC
[05:19] <sproingie> Rleyh: nope
[05:19] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: well it's done but it says that 1 checksum failed
[05:19] <Concord_Dawn> SuperMoonMan: I'm using Alcohol 120%.
[05:19] <WhiteNinja> Rleyh: yeah... reinstall dapper :-.)
[05:19] <alienseer23> hello
[05:19] <Concord_Dawn> Yeah, that's probably why it's dying.
[05:19] <Rleyh> :( shit
[05:19] <syock> Rleyh: Cool thing you did. Since you tried that, care to share results?
[05:19] <_stev_> Concord_Dawn: no I just don't want to use a graphical login screen to get in my X environment
[05:19] <nalioth> Rleyh: not here, please.
[05:20] <Concord_Dawn> Use Alcohol 120% to burn the image this time, it has a free trial.
[05:20] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn: so should I reburn it then using Alcohol? I already have it installed I have just always used ISO Recorder
[05:20] <drbreen_> _stev_: set your login shell to startx ?
[05:20] <Concord_Dawn> _stev_: So you want to just make X boot after you've done a command line login?
[05:20] <Rleyh> syock: everything works execpt X ;)
[05:20] <SuperMoonMan> Concord_Dawn:  ok I will
[05:20] <sproingie> Rleyh: there sorta is but it takes so much wizardry to do right that you may as well reinstall (less work)
[05:20] <Zambezi> sproingie, I use xkill and click or killall process.
[05:20] <alienseer23> Q: is there anything I need to do to get my Soundblaster Live card working with linux? sometimes it works, most of the time it does not
[05:20] <_stev_> Concord_Dawn: yes without the command startx
[05:20] <sproingie> Zambezi: i believe you were asking after a console task manager.  top is what you're looking for
[05:21] <Concord_Dawn> You need to startx in order to Start X....
[05:21] <Rleyh> sproingie: how would it work? ;)
[05:21] <Concord_Dawn> Just set your login shell to startx.
[05:21] <Zambezi> WhiteNinja, I'll check with top. I think it shows the CPU-load too.
[05:21] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: soundblaster is wellknown in also, oss and so on
[05:21] <Concord_Dawn> WhiteNinja: That's alsa. ;-)
[05:21] <_stev_> Concord_Dawn: how can I do that? where do I add that command?
[05:21] <syock> I`m downloading Vista Beta right now. And when I`m done, I`m going to start bashing the windows forum on how windows doesn`t play my native Linux games
[05:21] <molla> guys, I am newbie here
[05:22] <WhiteNinja> typo... big fingers :-) i'm not as good as native typing ppl :-(((
[05:22] <molla> I need to know how to check installed programs on ubuntu
[05:22] <Concord_Dawn> _stev_: I'm not sure. You might try adding it into your ~/.bashrc, but ask around. I'm hardly knowledgable on this.
[05:22] <frogzoo> syock: what, no tux racer?
[05:22] <sproingie> Rleyh: fiddling with priority settings in your apt preferences.  even then you'll get breakage because if a package migrates to a different packaging structure, it knows how to upgrade them but not downgrade
[05:22] <drbreen_> syock: why even bother to try vista ?
[05:22] <alienseer23> that is what I have read, but I still get no sound, I believe I have all the surface settings correct...jsut no sound
[05:22] <Concord_Dawn> molla: synaptic
[05:23] <drbreen_> _stev_ bashrc is only for non-login shells
[05:23] <WhiteNinja> _stev_: just stop gdm, xdm or kdm for start at boot-times
[05:23] <_stev_> Concord_Dawn: well then will it try to start every time I use a shell in my X not?
[05:23] <Rleyh> sproingie: ok...i think ill wait until edgy is way stable
[05:23] <SuperMoonMan> well the trial period for Alcohol 120% must have just expired...any other recommendations?
[05:23] <XiXaQ> Alot of the packages in the lists of Synaptic aren't available from the repos. Could anyone please check my sources.list to see if I've done anything wrong? http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/qhbH4Z43.html
[05:23] <syock> drbreen_: My college lecturer made me do it! He suddenly announced the give-away of Beta 2 which sparked interest in me.
[05:23] <drbreen_> _stev_ better to set login shell to startx
[05:23] <syock> Woops, bad grammar
[05:23] <sproingie> Rleyh: and i can guarantee that package structures get rearranged between major versions.  you learned your edgy lesson ... i learned it when i upgraded to breezy too soon
[05:23] <tkup> I have had created a partition that I left during install for LVM. After install, I pvcreate /dev/hda3; vgcreate extra /dev/hda3; but when I vgcreate I get this error twice: Incorrect metada area header checksum. and then "No physical volume label read from /dev/hda3 and then "not identified as an existing physical volume. I'm stuck. can anyone help?
[05:23] <WhiteNinja> that will give u login at console.. and u r able to start every x-session with startkde, startxfce and so on
[05:23] <drbreen_> supermoonman: what do you want exacrty ?
[05:23] <sproingie> Rleyh: i.e. it's more like debian experimental than sid :)
[05:24] <SuperMoonMan> drbreen_: a different program to burn the iso
[05:24] <_stev_> drbreen_: where do I find my login shell conf?
[05:24] <SuperMoonMan> drbreen_: for Windows :-P
[05:24] <Rleyh> sproingie: lol
[05:24] <jkp> where is modules.conf on an ubuntu system?
[05:24] <molla> thanks concord
[05:24] <Nitefall> how do I view the list of running processes?
[05:24] <alienseer23> alsa comes with ubuntu install already enabled, right???
[05:24] <teicah> 'top'
[05:24] <sproingie> jkp: locate modules.conf
[05:25] <jkp> sproingie: turns up nothing
[05:25] <ardchoille> teicah: is there a way to scroll up and down in top?
[05:25] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: mostly :-)
[05:25] <nalioth> XiXaQ: do you have universe and multiverse repos enabled?
[05:25] <XiXaQ> Supermathie, come on. there are thousands of software like that for windows. Maybe even Explorer can write isos? Otherwise, nero is a good choice.
[05:25] <miano> Nitefall, type top in ur terminal
[05:25] <teicah> 'shift+pgup" i believe
[05:25] <alienseer23> mostly?
[05:25] <sproingie> jkp: sudo updatedb && locate modules.conf.  tho on my system, it turns up nothing interesting either
[05:25] <Nitefall> miano: thanks
[05:25] <Supermathie> XiXaQ: Eh? Wha'd I say?:)
[05:25] <XiXaQ> nalioth, I think so. I pasted my sources.list in the last message..
[05:25] <jkp> yeah, im doing this now
[05:26] <jkp> so where the hell is it on ubuntu?
[05:26] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: if u dont choose.. expert-install and forget to install it :-)
[05:26] <teicah> u can also select which user processes to watch with 'u' then username
[05:26] <nalioth> XiXaQ: here's the deal:  everywhere you see "universe" in your sources.list, it needs to say "universe multiverse"
[05:27] <sproingie> jkp: possibly it doesn't use it?  beats me, module configuration on linux is a hack that changes every year.
[05:27] <IRCMonkeyx> ! Xserver

[05:27] <IRCMonkeyx> hi friends, could anyone tell me what xserver is??
[05:28] <mif> leave
[05:28] <fdr> nalioth: of course... I was looking for a way not to get into the graphics mode... the bootloader is always trying to launch X and stuff...
[05:28] <sproingie> fdr: 32 meg?  ouch.  even a server install will hurt.  you might consider PuppyLinux or something like that

[05:29] <tuliomgui> how do install new mouse themes??
[05:29] <mysticalone> yes
[05:29] <fiznut> Anyone have any idea why I would suddenly lose sound completely after a reboot?
[05:29] <IRCMonkeyx> hi friends, could anyone tell me what xserver is??
[05:29] <alienseer23> it sais ubuntu sounds is installed
[05:29] <fdr> nalioth: thx, didn't know about the "alternate" cd... so server install can't be done anymore from the main cd like in release 5.x ?
[05:30] <teicah> is there a gui app that will allow me to view/extract the contents of a deb like archive manager does with an rpm?

When I go to xorg.conf the resolution is there. I even did the wizard and still cant get the resolution higher than 1280X1024 even with the screen resolution utility in gnome. Any help would be very much appreciated here is a pastebin page of my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19100

[05:38] <DJAdmiral> SebastianB: you probably have some display screen issue or something lol
[05:38] <longwave> SebastianB: sounds like X has not configured itself right, if you press ctrl+alt+f1 do you get to a standard terminal?
[05:38] <s_spiff> ok..will check it out
[05:38] <SebastianB> when should i press that?
[05:38] <tuliomgui> WhiteNinja: the second tab only shows the icons i cant install a new one from there
[05:38] <SebastianB> during the boot?
[05:38] <Concord_Dawn> anyone know where the sources.list is that has multiverse and all the other extra repos?
[05:39] <help-the-n00b> The install isn't working. Should I use synaptic?
[05:39] <longwave> SebastianB: no, when you think it is ready for log in (or after you have logged in blind)
[05:39] <gnomefreak> !repos > Concord_Dawn

[05:39] <goatmale> can someone help me?
[05:39] <gnomefreak> Concord_Dawn: read your pm please
[05:39] <snoops> right hmm onboard graphics could be a problem s_spiff..basically XGL will work on most nvidia and ati graphics cards and few intel chipsets (as in graphics chipsets)...and AIGLX for intel graphics chipsets again
[05:39] <ardchoille>  /away bbiab
[05:39] <goatmale> I am trying to install a program and it says to use make and then make install
[05:39] <Concord_Dawn> gnomefreak: I'm no stranger to this channel :-
[05:39] <nalioth> !repos > help-the-n00b
[05:39] <Concord_Dawn> :-)*
[05:39] <SebastianB> i can try that ;) what do I need to change then?
[05:39] <klees> is there a way to have grip rip/encode in Proper format (capitalize and no underscore)???
[05:39] <miano> goatmale, ask away..:)
[05:39] <DJAdmiral> goatmale: what program are you trying to install?
[05:40] <goatmale> kcheat
[05:40] <nalioth> goatmale: we recommand using "checkinstall" instead of 'make install'
[05:40] <Concord_Dawn> hmm
[05:40] <Concord_Dawn> I'm having a problem with sudo.
[05:40] <goatmale> it's on source forge
[05:40] <Concord_Dawn> "timestamp too far in the future: Jul 28 15:24:44 2006"
[05:40] <DJAdmiral> goatmale: try searching thru the synaptic package manager to see if the program is available there first
[05:40] <longwave> SebastianB: well, once you've got to a terminal, you can log in and at least see what you are doing. maybe "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" would get you started in fixing X...
[05:40] <help-the-n00b> Sorry. That didn't help.
[05:40] <s_spiff> snoops, so it may not work on mine? i have a 6200 geforce onboard. if that infor makes a diff :)

[05:41] <Dr_Willis> Concord_Dawn,  set your clock. :) and perhaps 'touch' the files to set the timestamps on them correctly
[05:41] <longwave> !b-e > goatmale

[05:41] <nilesh892003> what about voice chat in ubuntu with yahoo id
[05:41] <nalioth> rub: try asking in #squid
[05:41] <coopster> Concord_Dawn, i had the same problem, you have to set your clock to whenever the timestamp is, and run sudo with an option that clears the timestamp, can't remember which -option it is
[05:41] <InterNut> anyone know why i get a wierd pic (http://internut.no-ip.org/webcam/) when using webcamd but when im trying camorama it works?

[05:43] <gbelli> hello everyone, this is my first time with a debian-derived distro, I've used redhat based distros for years and there are some things I still don't get
[05:43] <nilesh892003> ??
[05:44] <nalioth> gbelli: welcome
[05:44] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, yeah..nalioth said that u can use a jabber client for that.
[05:44] <gbelli> where is the equivalent to /etc/modprobe.conf and /etc/modpribe.preload?
[05:44] <Concord_Dawn> coopster-away: I still get the same problem.
[05:44] <Concord_Dawn> Dr_Willis: What's the sudo file?
[05:44] <Concord_Dawn> !root
[05:44] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:44] <ompaul> nilesh892003, maybe no one has an answer
[05:45] <longwave> gbelli: /etc/modules.conf and /etc/modules ?
[05:45] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, like nalioth said use a jabber client.. loads of them available
[05:45] <nilesh892003> how to work with nokia 6630 in ubuntu?
[05:45] <nilesh892003> i know about jabber but it is only for typing chat
[05:45] <peg> nilesh892003, gphoto2
[05:45] <gbelli> longwave: there is just /etc/modules
[05:45] <chrisjw> HI there, I'm using gcc and I have a segmentation fault, that's fine, it's what I expect, but it doesn't dump any core
[05:45] <nilesh892003> not voice chat
[05:45] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, work as in?
[05:46] <chrisjw> Can anyone explain this to me :S
[05:46] <coopster-away> Concord_Dawn, make sure you set the time on the computer near/ahead of the time in the error message, run sudo -k, and then set the time back before you do any more sudo
[05:46] <rotman> Hi, I have a server with a DVD-drive, and I want to be able to use that drive on my user-pc's, as if it where their local DVD-drive. Is it best to use NFS, or would it better to use NBD for that?
[05:46] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, there are jabber servers which will allow voice too
[05:46] <s_spiff> nalioth, correct me if i'm wrong.
[05:46] <nilesh892003> where can i get Driver for DKU-2 nokia cable
[05:46] <gdb> nilesh892003: You're not going to be able to use Google Voice Chat in Linux.
[05:46] <WhiteNinja> nilesh892003: look for gnookii... maybe this will help.. u have to have access to universe packages
[05:46] <nilesh892003> ??
[05:46] <polpak> chrisjw: you need to set your user limits with the ulimit command
[05:46] <nilesh892003> and what tje software to use after that
[05:46] <chrisjw> how do i do that please
[05:46] <nalioth> nilesh892003: may we suggest you look into some current jabber clients
[05:46] <polpak> chrisjw: man ulimit
[05:46] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, u don need a driver... just plug in. i'm using it for my 3300 presently
[05:47] <nilesh892003> ok
[05:47] <longwave> gbelli: /etc/modules is the preload file.. maybe /etc/modprobe.d/options is the options file you want?
[05:47] <chrisjw> "No manual entry for ulimit"
[05:47] <nilesh892003> s_spiff: which software do u use?
[05:47] <Concord_Dawn> thanks coopster-away
[05:47] <longwave> chrisjw: ulimit is built into bash, try "help ulimit"
[05:47] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, as in? for what?
[05:47] <coopster-away> Concord_Dawn, np
[05:47] <nilesh892003> s_spiff: for nokia
[05:47] <gbelli> longwave: I'll check
[05:47] <polpak> chrisjw:  odd. Well ulimit -c unlimited should do it
[05:48] <nilesh892003> file transfer
[05:48] <polpak> chrisjw: ulimit -c by itself will give you the current size core files you're limited to
[05:48] <frogzoo> I can't get eiciel to integrate with nautilus - any clues?
[05:48] <nilesh892003> s_spiff: for file transfer between comp and nokia phone
[05:48] <help-the-n00b> I have rosegarden. I just need something simple. Just  edit the pitch, so speed of notes.
[05:48] <WhiteNinja> nilesh892003: ... i told u... gnookii is the program u r looking for.. sms, filetransfer, calling, if ur nokia is recognized
[05:48] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, i don use any ..i'm using a old 3300 ..the indian model, not the presently launches 2003 model .so basically all it requires is to be plugged in.. and a new window opens showing the disk and contents and stuff.just copy whatver u want there

[05:50] <FusionXN1> I got a problem with my USB microphone. I think it's detecting it as a sound card / sound output
[05:50] <teicah> goatmale: backup first

[05:50] <dark-messias> i'm have a problem in alsa
[05:50] <dark-messias> ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.
[05:50] <dark-messias> what is that?
[05:50] <jrib> Larsson-Sweden: I don't know much about, I've actually been looking into that just this morning
[05:50] <Concord_Dawn> hurray! Ubuntu requires 300% less configuration after install than Windows.
[05:51] <help-the-n00b> Can someone help me?
[05:51] <help-the-n00b> Sorry.
[05:51] <goatmale> Can I add something to sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:51] <help-the-n00b> I have rosegarden. I just need something simple. Just  edit the pitch, so speed of notes.
[05:51] <MenZa> Concord_Dawn, ...300% less?
[05:51] <nilesh892003> any nokia mobile software ?
[05:51] <Concord_Dawn> MenZa: Yes.
[05:51] <MenZa> Concord_Dawn, that doesn't make sense to me.
[05:51] <help-the-n00b> I have rosegarden. I just need something simple. Just  edit the pitch, not speed of notes.*
[05:51] <jrib> goatmale: what do you want to add?
[05:51] <help-the-n00b> Sorry.
[05:51] <MenZa> Concord_Dawn, you must mean Windows requires 3x the configuration.
[05:51] <goatmale> http://sourceforge.net/projects/kcheat/
[05:51] <Concord_Dawn> It means it requires one third of the work.
[05:51] <MenZa> I mean, if you cut something down by 300%, you'd have -200%
[05:51] <gbelli> longwave: thank you, /etc/modprobe.d/options was it
[05:51] <Concord_Dawn> Same difference.
[05:51] <nilesh892003> hello plz give me the name for nokia software for linux
[05:51] <MenZa> Which would mean... you wouldn't even have to install it.
[05:52] <Concord_Dawn> MenZa: no.
[05:52] <MenZa> ;)
[05:52] <s_spiff> nilesh892003, just search the synaptic for nikia.. u'll get gnooki..install that. i'm doin it myself presently
[05:52] <Concord_Dawn> :-P
[05:52] <MenZa> Concord_Dawn, you're probably right. I'm a bit tipsy.
[05:52] <MenZa> Nevermind me.
[05:52] <XiXaQ> Does anyone know how to manually create a Virtual Machine for use with VMWare Player?

[05:53] <FusionXN1> Anyone know why my USB mic wont work?!?!
[05:53] <jrib> goatmale: cheater!  it doesn't seem to be in ubuntu's repositories, so you may have to compile it if you want it
[05:53] <s_spiff> WhiteNinja, i figured when i didnt find it. so i searched for nokia :P
[05:53] <peg> FusionXN1, i is god dam usb!
[05:53] <goatmale> it's not working jrib.

[05:53] <tritium> peg: watch the language please
[05:53] <jrib> !doesn't work
[05:53] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[05:54] <FusionXN1> I think it sees my mic as a soundcard
[05:54] <gdb> peg: At anyrate, for future reference, you need an 'n' at the end and it's all one word.
[05:54] <alienseer23> i have the alsa mixer, but it only shows my mothe4rboards onboard audio, how do i get it to switch to my soundblaster card???

[06:03] <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.
[06:03] <DarkAudit> When I run  perl -MCPAN -e "install Net::Pcap" it hangs at t/04-loop
[06:03] <GoldenEagle68> no, wired. It's a very strange card, too.
[06:03] <rotman> !nbd
[06:03] <dark-messias> but mp3 and other to playing normally
[06:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about nbd - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:03] <Concord_Dawn> GoldenEagle68: What's the problem?
[06:03] <GoldenEagle68> Not recognized by the installer or the OS
[06:04] <Concord_Dawn> hmph.
[06:04] <mc__> DarkAudit, Perl is dead.Long live Ruby
[06:04] <Ignite_> hey, anyone know what "abanta" means?
[06:04] <Concord_Dawn> Google the model + linux.
[06:04] <GoldenEagle68> Worked fine in in breezy, wont work now. =\
[06:04] <Concord_Dawn> See what pops up.
[06:04] <help-the-n00b> What other audio editors are there for windows?
[06:04] <krogh> mc__: I wouldn't say so :-)
[06:04] <GoldenEagle68> I'll try, thing is, I dont know the model (i'm at work, it's at home) It's got a serial or parallel port on the card, too, its really wierd.
[06:04] <GoldenEagle68> but thank you concord.
[06:04] <Concord_Dawn> help-the-n00b: FL Studio, Steinberg, Acid.
[06:04] <mc__> krogh, in what way is perl superior to ruby in your opinion?
[06:04] <brotakul> i have installed oss audio driver with easyubuntu but i have problems in games[no sound] . i want to switch to alsa. do i have to unninstall oss first? where should i get alsa drivers?
[06:05] <help-the-n00b> Concord_Dawn,  What's simplest?
[06:05] <SebastianB> longwave? ;) I did what you suggest.. it didn't help. I Changed the Screen-Resolution und reconfigured everything.. still I don't see anything but the console
[06:05] <Concord_Dawn> GoldenEagle68: Oh. It's usually easiest to troubleshoot these kinds of problems when you're in front of the computer.
[06:05] <Concord_Dawn> help-the-n00b: I prefer FL Studio, but it's not free (or cheap for that matter), and it does not run on wine.
[06:05] <help-the-n00b> Concord_Dawn, Can I apt-get it?
[06:06] <mc__> help-the-n00b, no
[06:06] <sedeki> FL Studio :)
[06:06] <sergiol> i think --purge did not remove rests of conf files properly
[06:06] <Concord_Dawn> It's a Windows program.....
[06:06] <help-the-n00b> Concord_Dawn, Any free ones that run on linux?
[06:06] <sergiol> now it is working
[06:06] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: but this way dismisses one fact.. than the chance for making faults are greater than otherwise :-)
[06:06] <Concord_Dawn> not that I know of. Linux is not known for audio editing.
[06:06] <sedeki> there is Rosegarden
[06:06] <tritium> help-the-n00b: Audacity
[06:06] <FusionXN1> help-the-n00b you want a linux audio editor thats free?
[06:06] <Concord_Dawn> Audacity is pretty good.
[06:07] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: u r not right.. there are many linux-distributions for multimedia-purposes
[06:07] <sedeki> I've discovered there are no equivalent as good, simple and powerful as Windows' FL Studio
[06:07] <|rt|> help-the-n00b: audacity, adour (pro-tools like), hydrogen (drum machine)
[06:07] <Concord_Dawn> WhiteNinja: If I walked upto any major music producer on the planet, they'll be using Windows or Mac. Guarenteed.
[06:07] <Concord_Dawn> FL Studio owns anything you'll find on Linux anyways.
[06:08] <SebastianB> Can someone else help me? My Monitor always gets black after the loading-screen
[06:08] <|rt|> help-the-n00b: there are a few sequence editors as well similar to fuity or acid
[06:08] <tritium> Concord_Dawn: that doesn't mean there aren't good tools on linux.  You're just not familiar with them.
[06:08] <Bonez56> Concord_Dawn: I work in a television station and we use linux in our audio control suite. Along with a massive $250,000 sony audio mixer
[06:08] <sergiol> sedeki> what is that?
[06:08] <help-the-n00b> Yes.
[06:08] <brotakul> i have installed oss audio driver with easyubuntu but i have problems in games[no sound] . i want to switch to alsa. do i have to unninstall oss first? where should i get alsa drivers?
[06:08] <WhiteNinja> or they have a special solution for their own.. agreed... but we r discussing "home-music". "multimedia"... otherwise it is only a question of money :)
[06:08] <s_spiff> hey any1 knows a good tcp/ip based messenger? xipmg sux!
[06:08] <help-the-n00b> What's the best free one for Linux?
[06:08] <sedeki> Bonez56 cool.
[06:08] <Concord_Dawn> tritium: I'm not saying that either, but they're fewer and farther between than on Windows or Mac.
[06:08] <peg> Bonez56, what kid of stuff do you use linux for in the studio?
[06:09] <help-the-n00b> ???
[06:09] <help-the-n00b> ?
[06:09] <Bonez56> peg: i don't actually use it myself, i'm not involved with the audio side of things, but i have seen the system. no idea what actual programs they are running. I'm pretty sure it's a redhat box.
[06:09] <Concord_Dawn> security.ubuntu.com come back up? I just got about a month's worth of security updates.
[06:09] <zaudragon> excuse me, what file systems can Ubuntu support?
[06:09] <Bonez56> zaudragon: what file system do you want it to support?
[06:09] <Concord_Dawn> zaudragon: ext2/3, jfs, reiserfs
[06:10] <Concord_Dawn> and just about anything else, except for NTFS.
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> Ubuntu works with .exe! JK
[06:10] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> !exe
[06:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about exe - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> !.exe
[06:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about .exe - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:10] <sedeki> ntfs, fat
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> ?
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> Oh.
[06:10] <zaudragon> Bonez56: something that OS X can support by default
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> What's the best free one for Linux?
[06:10] <|rt|> help-the-n00b: http://linux-sound.org/ is a good place to start
[06:10] <Concord_Dawn> zaudragon: Fat32?
[06:10] <help-the-n00b> I need a program.
[06:10] <sedeki> zaudragon ubuntu works with ntfs and fat too. if you have say a mp3 or digital camera.
[06:10] <Concord_Dawn> I don't know what OSX supports.
[06:10] <Bonez56> zaudragon: don't know enough about OSX sorry
[06:11] <help-the-n00b> One I can learn the basics of fast.
[06:11] <mwe> I want to add a cron job to be run daily as root. should I create a script in/etc/cron.daily/ or edit the crontab for root?
[06:11] <zaudragon> Bonez56: I'm wondering... does Ubuntu support UFS?
[06:11] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue
[06:11] <Concord_Dawn> zaudragon: I think so.
[06:11] <Concord_Dawn> !ufs
[06:11] <ubotu> I know nothing about ufs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:11] <Bonez56> zaudragon: try putting these two words into google: ubuntu ufs
[06:11] <woei> I just upgraded from warty (4.10) to breezy. All is well, except for evolution's mail archives. I can't for the life of me figure out how to upgrade the data from Evolution 2.0 to Evolution 2.6 shipped with Dapper
[06:12] <zaudragon> looks like it can
[06:12] <WhiteNinja> ufs wont be a good idea for linux :-)... just as ntfs...
[06:12] <Concord_Dawn> zaudragon: You can get a program to make OS X support Ext2/3
[06:12] <zaudragon> Concord_Dawn: yeah, but I don't like it
[06:12] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue
[06:12] <zaudragon> I guess that's the best, though
[06:12] <Concord_Dawn> zaudragon: Go with Fat32 then.
[06:12] <|rt|> help-the-n00b: check out http://ardour.org/
[06:12] <zaudragon> Concord_Dawn: No thanks ;)
[06:12] <Concord_Dawn> lol
[06:12] <jn> hi, im trying to get sabvga.pcf (font) installed and i am having problems i followed instructions from http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/ansifont.html
[06:12] <Concord_Dawn> I think you're out of luck :-P
[06:13] <Concord_Dawn> Does Ubuntu support HFS or HFS+ in r/w?
[06:13] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue
[06:13] <zaudragon> Concord_Dawn: it supports HFS+ not journaled r/w
[06:13] <zaudragon> and HFS+ journaled r
[06:13] <Concord_Dawn> so go with that then. OS X supports HFS+.
[06:14] <zaudragon> might not work ;)
[06:14] <help-the-n00b> Ok. What is the best free audio editor for Linux that I can apt-get? For free. For Linux.
[06:14] <gregg__> help-the-n00b: audacity is pretty good
[06:14] <zaudragon> Audacity? <-- isn't that open-source?
[06:14] <Concord_Dawn> help-the-n00b: AUDACITY.
[06:14] <help-the-n00b> I never understood audacity.
[06:14] <Concord_Dawn> holy.
[06:14] <jn> what is the best movie player for ubuntu, mplayer?
[06:14] <WhiteNinja> the best and easiest way would be... a familiar os for the main purposes.. and then a virtual-pc with the looked fileformat :-)
[06:14] <Concord_Dawn> Please, cease existance.
[06:14] <zaudragon> jn: or VLC
[06:15] <help-the-n00b> It was always... had a non-user-friendly UI.
[06:15] <jn> zaudragon: do they both do xvid, vcd, svcd?
[06:15] <zaudragon> I personally prefer MPlayer
[06:15] <zaudragon> jn: I believe so
[06:15] <jn> ok
[06:15] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue <[06:15] <Concord_Dawn> VLC does those.
[06:15] <Concord_Dawn> Dunno about MPlayer.
[06:15] <mc__> jn, mplayer  is considered the best by most people
[06:15] <Concord_Dawn> FeestBijtje: Restart.
[06:15] <jn> do you know how to get ansi font displaying in aterm
[06:15] <Bonez56> jn: you have codecs, right?
[06:15] <jn> i haven't gotten the codecs yet no
[06:16] <gregg__> jn: you usually don't need them (if you all are talking abut win32 codescs)
[06:16] <Concord_Dawn> !restrictedformats > jn
[06:16] <FeestBijtje> Concord_Dawn, i did
[06:16] <|rt|> i have to edit audio from time to time here...use Vegas for most of it...but there are some things that I do in audacity b/c it's much easier to do there
[06:16] <Ng> help-the-n00b: there's rarely such a thing as "the best" tool. I'd suggest you fire up synaptic and search for "audio editor" and then "sound editor" and try some of the things that come up :)
[06:16] <Concord_Dawn> FeestBijtje: reinstall alsa/oss/esound
[06:16] <help-the-n00b> Couldn't find pacakge audicity.
[06:16] <Concord_Dawn> Try spelling it right.
[06:16] <Concord_Dawn> audacity
[06:16] <help-the-n00b> Got it. Sorry.
[06:17] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: patience is a virtue
[06:17] <WhiteNinja> Concord_Dawn: u r the one with small and fast fingers *lol
[06:17] <Concord_Dawn> Ng: I have no patience for ignorance.
[06:17] <tritium> Concord_Dawn: be nice, please
[06:17] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: perhaps you shouldn't be supporting inexperienced users then
[06:17] <Xbehave> are the live cd drives exactly the same as the ones used when i install?
[06:17] <Rinnt> how do I configure ubuntu to accept print jobs on port 9100?
[06:18] <Concord_Dawn> Ng: I have nothing against inexperienced users. I have something against inexperienced users that fail to listen to anything I tell them.
[06:18] <FeestBijtje> Concord_Dawn, dint worked
[06:18] <tritium> !conduct > Concord_Dawn
[06:18] <Concord_Dawn> FeestBijtje: No idea then. Post in the forums?
[06:18] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: then don't help them, but being rude to them is very much against the ubuntu spirit and code of conduct
[06:18] <jn> so has anyone installed a font in ubuntu? I
[06:18] <jn> pcf..
[06:18] <Concord_Dawn> I don't need a lecture, thank you, Ng.
[06:18] <KirO> how can i download the ubuntu linux kernel sources?
[06:18] <fiznut> Can anyone help me? I've lost sound and can't figure out why. =[
[06:18] <Ng> Concord_Dawn: evidently you do
[06:18] <FusionXN1> do i need any sound drivers for  USB sound devices with ubuntu?
[06:19] <tritium> Concord_Dawn: you need to follow the code of conduct, though
[06:19] <mc__> KirO, could you please bother to search the wiki(wiki.ubuntu.com) before askin here?
[06:19] <InterNut> anyone know why i get a wierd pic (http://internut.no-ip.org/webcam/) when using webcamd but when im trying camorama it works?
[06:19] <Zyfo> Any swede here? Which character set should I use for X-Chat to be able to write "  "?
[06:19] <WhiteNinja> fiznut: maybe u have clicked.. "mute"?
[06:19] <alienseer23> white, it didn't work
[06:19] <Concord_Dawn> Tried UTF-8 Zyfo?
[06:19] <FeestBijtje> Anyone has a suggestion?
[06:19] <KirO> . mc__ i'll look it again maybe i did't look it well
[06:20] <Zyfo> Concord_Dawn: I can't see it by myself, but I'll try and reconn and see if there's any difference, thanks
[06:20] <fiznut> WhiteNinja, nope. not muted
[06:20] <alienseer23> I still got the drum sound at the log on screen but now it sais "function snd_ctl_open failed for default: no such device
[06:20] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: i have a soundblaster live, too.. and i sound-chip onboard.. it is a matter of "muting" in the mixer... try to click "mute" on several inputs.. then u will have sound
[06:20] <KirO> . mc__ i have a dual core pc but SMP kernels arent in the repository ... i cant find help anywhere
[06:20] <KirO> :(
[06:20] <alienseer23> ok
[06:20] <sedeki> Zyfo I can see your 
[06:21] <mc__> KirO, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild?highlight=%28kernel%29%7C%28custom%29
[06:21] <Zyfo> Concord_Dawn: Does it seem to work now?   . How can I set UTF-8 to system default anyway?
[06:21] <fiznut> WhiteNinja, I have tried going to the gnome sound properties and selecting my sound card to default, but it doesn't stay. I close it and go back and it's selected the onboard sound chip on my motherboard as default
[06:21] <KirO> . mc__ thank you too much
[06:21] <sedeki> Zyfo you have to set for each server group
[06:21] <mc__> KirO, no problem
[06:21] <Zyfo> sedeki: oh you could? that's odd, some others couldn't :<
[06:21] <Concord_Dawn> Zyfo: I can't tell. I'd need to set my charset to UTF-8 as well, which I'm not going to do seeing as this is my Windows box.
[06:21] <Concord_Dawn> I don't know how to set UTF-8 as the default charset. Maybe look in the wiki?
[06:21] <Zyfo> Concord_Dawn: ok
[06:21] <nalioth> Ng: Concord_Dawn: can y'all take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please?
[06:21] <FeestBijtje> any one can help me with this problem: i have put my computer on hybernate... now i don't have sound any one knows this issue <[06:21] <WhiteNinja> fiznut... then disable the onboard-soundchip if it isnt needed
[06:21] <mc__> KirO, you do not have to compile the kernel yourself
[06:21] <fiznut> How do I do so?
[06:22] <Zyfo> thanks Concord_Dawn and sedeki
[06:22] <mc__> KirO, there are smp kernels
[06:22] <sedeki> zyfo i don't think I use utf-8
[06:22] <WhiteNinja> at start time in the bios of the pc
[06:22] <mc__> KirO, apt-cache search kernel smp
[06:22] <sedeki> Zyfo there's a #ubuntu-se channel.
[06:22] <fiznut> Ah, that works
[06:22] <Concord_Dawn> Anyone know if security's back up?
[06:22] <fiznut> gonna go try it
[06:22] <Zyfo> ok, thanks
[06:22] <sedeki> Zyfo for swedish people, obviously. :)
[06:22] <KirO> . mc__ i have searched in aptitude ... and i only find 2.4 SMP kernels ...
[06:23] <kitty-chan> hey, guys, any idea if ubuntu will work on an acer aspire 3000 notebook?  I used the live dvd, everything worked fine except for the wireless >.>  which is my primary concern
[06:23] <alienseer23> i have sound but its really scratchy
[06:23] <Bonez56> kitty-chan: what sort of wireless chipset do you have?
[06:23] <shwag> what is the url for the torrent ?
[06:23] <Concord_Dawn> shwag: Check www.ubuntu.com/download

[06:24] <tmccrary> Are there any docs on building a customized kernel from the official ubuntu patches? I have a Gigabyte i-RAM which needs tweaking to the sata driver to get working
[06:24] <WhiteNinja> 2.6.15-26-686 is smp, too.. if u wish KirO
[06:24] <KirO> ok thank you :) i'll try
[06:24] <Concord_Dawn> kitty-chan: Wireless may not work out of the box on Ubuntu because some manufacturers only make their drivers for Windows. There is a way around this, using ndiswrapper, but you'll need to actually install Ubuntu to do that.
[06:24] <kitty-chan> it's a broadcom chipset
[06:24] <nalioth> s_spiff{AWAY}: please don't do that
[06:25] <Concord_Dawn> kitty-chan: Broadcom is one of the manufacturers that does that, I believe.

[06:29] <Concord_Dawn> help-the-n00b: rtfm.
[06:29] <Bonez56> tokenbad: use dpkg to reconfigure proftpd and it should pop up with the blue screen that asks you how you want to run it

[06:29] <Concord_Dawn> Or experiment.
[06:29] <Ropechoborra> Concord_Dawn i got a 1gb mp3player and it says there 're 250 mb free but when i try to add files it says its full... so i thought to format it

[06:30] <tmccrary> Are there any docs on building a customized kernel from the official ubuntu patches? I have a Gigabyte i-RAM which needs tweaking to the sata driver to get working
[06:30] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: i couldn't get te minolta to be recognized by sane though
[06:30] <Sally80> i have installed something with wine. and it ran. but now where is the program?

[06:30] <phazeman> s/te/the
[06:30] <Bonez56> Sally80: /home/user/.wine
[06:30] <fiznut> WhiteNinja, Thanks for the help! :D Disabling the onboard audio worked. Funny how I tried everything except for the simple solutions :/
[06:30] <WhiteNinja> maybe minolta has special linux-driver... as samsung and epson :-)
[06:31] <Ropechoborra> Anyone can help me to format my mp3 player????
[06:31] <FusionXN1> Im going dam crazy here! SKYPE WONT USE MY USB MIC!
[06:31] <Bonez56> Sally80: if you want to remove the program, run the command "uninstaller" from a terminal
[06:31] <WhiteNinja> fiznut: u r welcome
[06:31] <jn> i rem reading about it but i forget the name
[06:31] <Nimrod6> jn: xgl
[06:31] <CarlFK> crimsun: (or any other sound experts) which of these 2 cards would you recommend?  1. Aureal Semiconductor AU8810 Vortex Digital Audio Processor  2. Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] 
[06:31] <Sally80> no i want to run it
[06:31] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: the epson worked right out of the box. the minolta was recognized just fine (as the log says) but i couldn't get it to work wit any scan software
[06:31] <Sally80> i dont ahve  anything in home/user?
[06:31] <jn> xgl, is it any good?
[06:31] <Sally80> grrrrr
[06:32] <Bonez56> Sally80: i mean /home/your_user_name_here/.wine
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> jn,  i would wait a few more months befor messing with xgl
[06:32] <WhiteNinja> phazeman: u have looked at minolta.com?
[06:32] <Nimrod6> jn: dunno, just got nvidia card working and im afraid to break it
[06:32] <Ropechoborra> phazeman what printer do u got? epson what'
[06:32] <[Ex0r] > CarlFK- I have #2, and it's got excellent sound on it
[06:32] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: yep... since this model was discontinued loooong time ago - there is nothing about it there
[06:32] <[Ex0r] > mine came on board though
[06:32] <CarlFK> [Ex0r] : #2 it is.  thanks
[06:32] <phazeman> Ropechoborra: it's a film scanner
[06:32] <Ropechoborra> ap
[06:33] <gregg__> Ropechoborra: mkdosfs
[06:33] <Sally80> fank youi
[06:33] <zzy> the command isnt working
[06:33] <hbi> how do u do hostap in ubuntu?
[06:33] <Ropechoborra> gregg__ ?
[06:33] <[Ex0r] > CarlFK- It's even got STD-IN on it for hooking it directly up to a surround sound system
[06:33] <WhiteNinja> thats why i am preferring nikon... if they dont support any model the community will :-)
[06:33] <hbi> is it supported?
[06:33] <jadams> my wireless stopped working when I upgraded my kernel
[06:33] <gregg__> Ropechoborra: that's the utility used to "format" a partition (create a filesystem) in FAT format
[06:33] <Ropechoborra> so y tipe sudo mkdosfs and what else?
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> mkfs.vfat
[06:34] <pike_> jadams: apt-getrestricted modules yet?
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> i think  :)
[06:34] <gregg__> Ropechoborra: find out the device name of your mp3 player, (plug it in, dmesg | tail)
[06:34] <gregg__> usually it is /dev/sda1
[06:34] <gregg__> but you should really be sure :)
[06:34] <FusionXN1> Is there a ran package i can use to make archieve manager OPEN and MAKE rar files?

[06:36] <pmorrison> Hello Everyone!  I am wondering if there is a way to change the extension of a group of files at once.  A bunch of my photos got renamed to *.rec, I guess they were recovered by fsck. Does anyone know how I can change the extension of these files to *.jpg all at once? There are hundreds of files, so it's painstakeingly slow to rename them one by one.  Any help would be much appreciated!!!

[06:38] <Bonez56> #ubuntu-au
[06:38] <Zyfo> In X-Chat if I want to have several connect commands when I connect to a server, what do I use as a seperator? Also, It doesn't seem like X-Chat was designed with Q (Qnet) in mind. There's no field that I can see where I can type in the password without it being written out clear, any solution to this?
[06:38] <jrib> Gorlist: any of the xine players (I like gxine) and ogle work well with menus
[06:38] <nexious> Hello! My sound doesn't work in VLC (0.8.4), please help me. I'm using Ubuntu 6.06.
[06:38] <js> FusionXN1: not likely
[06:38] <nalioth> Zyfo: your password is sent in the clear, no matter what it looks like in your client
[06:38] <FusionXN1> js - i dont know why it wont work
[06:38] <Gorlist> right

[06:39] <js> \nick Jack_Sparrow
[06:39] <help-the-n00b> Ok.
[06:39] <jrib> nexious: did you install vlc-plugin-* so you have the right audio output plugin available and then set it in preferences?
[06:39] <Gorlist> downloading at the moment
[06:39] <alienseer23> white, how do I get the alsamixeer to work, now?
[06:39] <Zyfo> nalioth: I know that, but is it possible to hide it like you can do with nickserv? With *** letters
[06:40] <nalioth> Zyfo: that is client dependent.  you can put your nickserv pass in the 'server password' field, if you wish
[06:40] <nexious> jrib, no, gonna test that now, thnx
[06:40] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: is the alsamixer shown up? and had it a sound-chip recognized?
[06:40] <alienseer23> it shows up, and worked before, but now it just sais device not there
[06:40] <kitty-chan> ok, apparently it's a Acer InviLink 802.11b/g wireless LAN >.>
[06:40] <jadams> pike_: I don't see how that helps with wireless problems...
[06:41] <FusionXN1> I'm pulling my hair out
[06:41] <Ropechoborra> Dr_Willis so it is mkfs.vfat /media/usbdisk  ???
[06:41] <jn> is anyone using bitchx
[06:41] <pmorrison> nalioth: I can't seem to get Kubuntu working on my computer, and krename doesn't seem to work in gnome... I'm a bit of a noob, do you know of a way to get it working in gnome?
[06:41] <SebastianB> Hi! Ubuntu doesn't use my notebook-screen. The login-screen is visible only on an external screen. How can I change that?
[06:41] <kitty-chan> will it work with ubuntu?
[06:41] <nalioth> pmorrison: do you have universe and multiverse repos enabled?
[06:41] <WhiteNinja> alienseer23: u had disabled the onboard-chip and now the soundblaster is not detected? is the soundblaster pluged in? in the right way???
[06:41] <Zyfo> nalioth: Does that mean that I can type /MSG Q@CServe.quakenet.org <password> in server password and it will work? Is it just another square to fill in commands? Also, what is the separator for several commands?
[06:41] <WhiteNinja> u checked it?
[06:41] <alienseer23> white, I have sound, everything sounds good
[06:42] <nalioth> Zyfo: no, just put your password in the server password field, your client will send it when necessary
[06:42] <WhiteNinja> ah... where is the problem now?
[06:42] <alienseer23> the alsa mixer doesn't work
[06:42] <nalioth> Zyfo: i don't use xchat, so don't know about the fine points
[06:42] <alienseer23> I am so confused
[06:42] <WhiteNinja> then try another mixer... maybe u have oss activated and not alsa
[06:42] <kitty-chan> so, does anyone know if that chipset will work in ubuntu?  Acer InviLink 802.11b/g wireless LAN
[06:42] <nalioth> Zyfo: perhaps you'd get more help in #xchat
[06:42] <Zyfo> nalioth: Q-service doesn't work like that though, you don't have to send it, it is just a very optional service, not like nickserv.
[06:42] <Zyfo> nalioth: Ok, thanks for the help.
[06:43] <pmorrison> nalioth: Yes, at one time I tried to install kubuntu-desktop, and the install ran fine, but I could not log on... but I do have the universe and multiverse in my sources.list
[06:43] <Zyfo> ah, I was in #x-chat, wrong of me :p
[06:43] <Gorlist> finding gxine keeps locking
[06:43] <erUSUL> pmorrison: http://pastebin.ca/104058

[06:44] <erUSUL> pmorrison: is a bash script to rename your files
[06:45] <miano> is it ok if i include a debian repo in my sources.list
[06:45] <erUSUL> pmorrison: i did not test it but it should work
[06:45] <nalioth> miano: that will break your box
[06:45] <friend32e> i like breaking boxen
[06:45] <WhiteNinja> pmorrison: u looked in gnome... for bulk-rename????

[06:49] <samuel_> phreaks, get the ebook "How to think like a computer scientist"
[06:49] <erUSUL> pmorrison: easyest way 'sh script dir'
[06:50] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: i have the same prob, have to manually insmod the sound modules eveytime after hibernate
[06:50] <erUSUL> pmorrison: it comes with absolutly no warranty ;)
[06:50] <Jack_Sparrow> gnomefreak: I finally crashed Ubuntu.   MYfault whiletesting a script that let you build custom Ubuntu live cd's
[06:50] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, how do i do that?
[06:50] <Ropechoborra> Dr_Willis i typed mkfs.vfat /dev/sda while mounted and it says mkfs.vfat: /dev/sda contains a mounted file system. I unmounte it and says No such file or directory =/

[06:53] <naknomik> I am using a Windows printer (using Samba) for my ubuntu system. Is it possible to share this printer using CUPS for other linux machines?
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> Ropechoborra,  the  idea that Formating a file system while mounted.. seems to be a bad idea eh? :P   also its /dev/sda1 most likely

I need it to run wirelessly (don't ask). the server cannot find any network interface besides eth0 (in 5.10, it had no problem finding and running ath0 out of the box). Does anyone know how I would go about activating ath0 or why it disappeared in Dapper Drake?
[06:54] <ubotu> Package vuescan does not exist in dapper
[06:55] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, i have the list but with one do i have to chose?
[06:55] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: looks like there is a way to work with that scanner under linux.. it's the VueScan that makes it possible...
[06:56] <WhiteNinja> fine.. phazeman.. it is always good to find solutions.. in thinking behind the problem :-)
[06:56] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: :)
[06:56] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, ?
[06:56] <WhiteNinja> <--- loves robert jordan... wheel of time... don't think of problems...think of solutions :-)
[06:56] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: my linux machine dead more then 2 weeks already so i've decided to find out if my scanners will work under linux... if they are - kubuntu, here we g again :)
[06:57] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: hmmm...you should find it yourself..let me see
[06:57] <phazeman> s/g/go
[06:57] <phazeman> did anyone hear aything about the progress of ebuntu ?
[06:57] <WhiteNinja> hm... phazeman... my guess.. ubuntu works best with gnome... kde is good, but more tricks to circumstances the basis os :-)
[06:58] <drbreen__> ebuntu ? ubuntu with e17 ?
[06:58] <WhiteNinja> xfce is good too... but nautilus is more likely to pop up :-)
[06:58] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: try "lspci --|grep audio"
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> and WindowMaker.
[06:58] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: me != gnome... never liked it... lways been a KDE/Flux guy
[06:58] <hbi> what variables are their in netstat to show the application is using what connecytion cause its possible in windows but i dont no what it is in ubuntu
[06:59] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: i've transferred from mandriva.. you know...
[06:59] <WhiteNinja> phaze.. for me it was xfce.. even in bsd.. but ubuntu still works better with gnome *sigh
[06:59] <WhiteNinja> i am testing software :-)

[06:59] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: i've found that installing ubuntu and then kde-dekstop makes the thingy better then installing the kubuntu :)
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. My creative card has given me no hassles in ubuntu. :)
[07:00] <phazeman> hbi: netstat | grep [port number]

[07:00] <eddie> will kde screensavers work in ubuntu?
[07:00] <WhiteNinja> phazeman: installing xyz-desktop is a good idea to have some basic files in it, too... but sometimes u will run in gnome-problems.. even in kde oder xfce
[07:01] <FeestBijtje> eddie, if you install kde libs it would be possibloe
[07:01] <mehrdad> does anyone know where can I download DVD images of repositories?
[07:01] <WhiteNinja> and u can avoid them working with gnome and running kde-packages inside gnome
[07:01] <phazeman> WhiteNinja: basicly, you are right... but i can't force mself using something i don't really like...
[07:01] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, dousnt work see error: feestbijtje@feestbijtje-ubuntu:~$ sudo modprobe -a EMU10k1 WARNING: Module EMU10k1 not found.

[07:06] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[07:06] <phazeman> SDR_: off course you can... it's about updating your sources.list, running apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade etc ec...
[07:06] <mehrdad> I want to download repositories :((
[07:06] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: do you have snd_sbxx in the list

[07:07] <Linuturk> !ndiswrapper
[07:07] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:07] <WhiteNinja> mehrdad: just open synaptic.. changes sources.list
[07:07] <phazeman> kitty-chan: how ?
[07:07] <mehrdad> no
[07:07] <SDR_> phazeman:  arent the sources the same ... just update the release name  ?
[07:07] <mehrdad> WhiteNinja: I can't connect to
[07:07] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, no but i do have my onboard soundcard on the list
[07:07] <phazeman> SDR_: better verify that first
[07:07] <mehrdad> WhiteNinja: internet using ubuntu, I want to download it in ISO format
[07:07] <Linuturk> why isn't ndiswrapper included in the default install? I've ran into several problems where the only net connection I had was via wireless, and ndiswrapper was needed for the wireless card

[07:21] <Bonez56> delight: i have a problem where it always tries to output to my /home partition which never has enough space, no matter if you specify a different location. also you can not burn directly from it, and it always forgets my options every time i open it
[07:21] <delight> mc__ don't remember where i got it from whas not in the repos ... i had to google for it something like tovid dapper .... maybe tovid debian ... don't remember but its working nice on my box
[07:21] <mc__> !anyone > LilSnipe
[07:21] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi: If you need to manage ports it will let ou tweak the settings
[07:21] <concept10> have they fixed the wireless part of NetworkManager in Dapper yet?
[07:21] <mc__> delight, hm do you think mencoder can to the job?
[07:21] <hbi> well i dont need to manage them but i mean im used to windows where if u dont have a firewall your screwed
[07:21] <LilSnipe> I have the LiveCD install version, but it keeps freezing on install...
[07:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry for the spelling errors, I am on lappy this morning and I have FAT fingers
[07:22] <LilSnipe> Is there another way to install, maybe command line?
[07:22] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi: welcome to the free world
[07:22] <mc__> L
[07:22] <joe___> when installing vlc I type sudo apt-get install vlc-plugin-esd
[07:22] <hbi> lol its scary
[07:22] <mc__> LilSnipe, you need the alternate install cd
[07:22] <WhiteNinja> LilSnipe: have u tried... save-vga-mode?
[07:22] <jesusmg> ola
[07:22] <gnomefreak> LilSnipe: download the alternative cd
[07:22] <joe___> and I get the error ;
[07:22] <joe___> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[07:22] <joe___>   vlc-plugin-esd: Depends: vlc (= 0.8.4.debian-1ubuntu6) but it is not going to be installed
[07:22] <delight> Bonez56 so there is a gui to it .. i think it was Qtovid or so ... but the precompiled package i found by googling was not working out of the box on my dapper ... so i sticked with the text version ... u should use simple tovid -dvd -in filename -out filename ... no home partition use needed
[07:23] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi: yea, it is nice once you relax, no spyware, adware virii
[07:23] <gnomefreak> joe___: sudo apt-get -f install
[07:23] <LilSnipe> I don't want to download.  Why i requested CD's
[07:23] <jesusmg> con quien tengo el gusto d hablar?
[07:23] <Bonez56> delight: i'll give that a go. i am using a GUI but I can't remember where I got it from. It just shows up on my apps menu as "Tovid"
[07:23] <hbi> Jack_Sparrow, but the problem is with now anti virus telling me theres none their i just have to trust the os and im not used to that at all lol
[07:23] <ardchoille> !es > jesusmg
[07:24] <hbi> *no
[07:24] <joe___> same thing
[07:24] <delight> Bonez56 ... nice ... id love to get that too .. but I'm ok with the text version ... u will have that command version too on your system as the gui - version depends on the bash-command
[07:24] <LilSnipe> Can I or can I not, install another way with the LiveCD?
[07:25] <WhiteNinja> hm... just for fun.. is there a german-ubuntu-channel?
[07:25] <drbreen__> #ubuntu-de
[07:25] <drbreen__>  ?
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> 3ubuntu-de
[07:25] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi:  If a problem pops up it is fixed and put in upgrades really fast

[07:25] <gnomefreak> WhiteNinja: #ubuntu-de

[07:32] <delight> cara ... what kind of an account is it ?
[07:32] <codecaine_> whats wrong with this command
[07:32] <codecaine_> sudo mount -t FAT16 /dev/sde movies
[07:32] <codecaine_> in cfdisk its FAT16
[07:32] <raboof> /var/log/udev mentions adding /dev/dsp1, but i see it nowhere grepping through /etc/udev
[07:32] <cara> ohh lol thank you so much lol i see it now
[07:32] <delight> FusionXN1 did u find the command in the bin folder ?
[07:32] <delight> thats the one u neeed to call
[07:32] <Bonez56> delight: yep know the feeling. see what you can dig up in google :)
[07:32] <FusionXN1> 1 mo ill look
[07:32] <pn> I have set up a Dapper server. I need it to run wirelessly (don't ask). the server cannot find any network interface besides eth0 (in 5.10, it had no problem finding and running ath0 out of the box). Does anyone know how I would go about activating ath0 or why it disappeared in Dapper Drake?
[07:32] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: What the installer does is to copy all the files to a partition
[07:32] <cara> delight.. it is the set user info account...
[07:33] <cara> thank you so much for your help guys!
[07:33] <delight> let me have a look ;)
[07:33] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: Then remove ubiquity package and configure system
[07:33] <WhiteNinja> how about telling mount whether it is /dev/sde1.. or sde2 (i guess mount looks for partitions.. not drives ) :-)
[07:33] <delight> cara ... did u use icq / aim or what ?
[07:33] <c|int> hey guys, I took the Pre test for the army today, and past it, Monday I got take, ASVAB, I want to do something great, and I Know I can get into security , and information systems, with the Army, my funds aren't that great right now, and I need help
[07:33] <codecaine_> anyone?
[07:33] <cara> before linux?
[07:33] <FusionXN1> tsclient :)
[07:33] <FusionXN1> nope
[07:33] <move> codecaine: try it as vfat
[07:33] <delight> cara .. .no i mean in general where u tried to set the profile data
[07:34] <Bonez56> c|int: ???
[07:34] <c|int> got that wireless, seeing the networks, but I can't get it to connect
[07:34] <move> even if it is FAT16 in cfdisk
[07:34] <WhiteNinja> codecaine: look above
[07:34] <cara> i didnt have any...
[07:34] <c|int> yeah?
[07:34] <hbi> Jack_Sparrow, with firewalls on the windows side... if someone is doing a nessus scan it flags up so i know that someone is trying to do stuff to my comp..... without a firewall in place on ubuntu that wouldnt flag up would it? or would there be no reason because i am not vulnerable to any exploit nessus can find?
[07:34] <cara> thank you guys... bye bye :)
[07:34] <delight> because in icq i only get a big text field to fill in
[07:34] <grayman> guess who
[07:35] <codecaine_> hmm says already mounted how can you find where a device is mounted?
[07:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi: no reason to worry
[07:35] <delight> FusionXN1 tsclient is not the right command ?
[07:35] <LilSnipe> Can I use the terminal to install Linux?
[07:35] <move> type mount
[07:35] <Bonez56> !nessus
[07:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about nessus - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:35] <move> !terminalinstall
[07:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about terminalinstall - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:35] <mc__> LilSnipe, yes
[07:35] <move> !terminal install
[07:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about terminal install - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:35] <move> hmm
[07:35] <LilSnipe> o.O
[07:36] <move> you need to download a special disk don't you?
[07:36] <zerostarhx> I'm trying to do a complete reinstall of windows and ubuntu, I wanted to start with windows first. I restart with windows in my cd drive and ubuntu wont allow it to boot up from the start.
[07:36] <LilSnipe> I hope not..
[07:36] <hbi> Jack_Sparrow,  being the fact im new to ubuntu i might be a sloppy user could i accidently make myself vulnerable.... and if i where to what would i have to do to make myself vulnerable.... or is the fact u need to get root to do anything to the system?
[07:36] <LilSnipe> Other wise im going back to Fedora
[07:36] <knewter> wow, so I did an apt-get install ifrename (noticed there were errors with that when booting), and now X won't start (says the synaptics touchpad no longer works), and my eth0 interface disappeared
[07:36] <FusionXN1> no thats terminal server or somrthing i think
[07:36] <mc__> LilSnipe, use the alternative install cd
[07:36] <skarface> zerostarhx: that's probably your bios doing that, not linux
[07:36] <LilSnipe> Im not going to download anything.
[07:36] <delight> http://tovid.sourceforge.net/download/kubuntu/ <<< for everybody looking for tovid
[07:36] <eyequeue> what is "terminal" install?
[07:36] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: ubuntu EATS Fedora, don't go back!:D
[07:36] <InterNut> anyone know why i get a wierd pic (http://internut.no-ip.org/webcam/) when using webcamd but when im trying camorama it works?
[07:36] <caonex> how can i restart the sound server or sound layer?
[07:36] <zerostarhx> my bios is set to boot from cd rom
[07:36] <mc__> LilSnipe, well than go back to fedora
[07:36] <move> zerostarhx: that's not ubuntu, that's your bios. you probably have IDE before CD-Rom in the boot order
[07:36] <Wash> Yo guys, I'm trying to get Ubuntu Dapper running on a dual-core Dell with ATI Radeon X600 video card, and everything gets set up fine except for X.  When I try to run, it gives me a "No screens found" error.  What gives?
[07:36] <codecaine_> hmm doesn't show it already mounted :/
[07:36] <Jack_Sparrow> hbi: just keep to the repositories for your software and relax..
[07:37] <Wash> I've tried running with the special boot directives for Dell computers, as well as noapic and nolapic, but I've had no luck.
[07:37] <mc__> LilSnipe, hafe fun with rpm's and greet the bugs from me
[07:37] <zerostarhx> I have all cd rom for boot order would this be a problem?
[07:37] <FusionXN1> i got it
[07:37] <LilSnipe> Will do MC
[07:37] <hbi> fine ill try and relax and have faith
[07:37] <LilSnipe> At least it installs :O
[07:37] <Jack_Sparrow> mc_  Agreed
[07:37] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: maybe your partition table has a problem that makes installer crash, I had te same problem
[07:37] <delight> FusionXN1 ... so u learned some 2day ;)
[07:37] <lufis> Is there any reason that Banshee is replaced by Rhythmbox in Ubuntu by default?
[07:37] <LilSnipe> It freezes at the TIME zone things
[07:37] <c|int> hey anyone here, I need some great help with wireless issue
[07:38] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: I had problems with FC5 DVD!
[07:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !bcm
[07:38] <ubotu> I know nothing about bcm - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:38] <FusionXN1> lol i had to do: cd ~/TeamSPeak2RC2 then ./TeamSpeak how do i put that on one command?
[07:38] <zerostarhx> Or should I have cdrom floppy then hd
[07:38] <LilSnipe> I have FC3, beat that!
[07:38] <LilSnipe> And it won't update.
[07:38] <delight> c|int try installing the network-manager
[07:38] <delight> after that it should be easy on kde its the knetworkmanager
[07:38] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: you can install linux with some tricks
[07:39] <LilSnipe> Then what are they/
[07:39] <LilSnipe> ?
[07:39] <zerostarhx> I'm going to try booting from the other cd tray
[07:39] <DarkAudit> !webmin
[07:39] <zerostarhx> brb
[07:39] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[07:39] <knewter> argh, ifrename conflicts with udev
[07:39] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: Create the required partitions manually
[07:39] <knewter> maybe that's why those things stopped working
[07:39] <LilSnipe> With what?
[07:39] <Dr_Willis> :)
[07:39] <FusionXN1> delight i cant find the "one" command for it
[07:39] <FusionXN1> so i cant add it to my menu
[07:39] <mc__> does someone know why webmin is no longer supported?
[07:39] <delight> u want it in your menu
[07:39] <FusionXN1> ya
[07:39] <delight> so create a .desktop file
[07:39] <delight> ;)
[07:39] <delight> or for the start
[07:40] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: fdisk
[07:40] <FusionXN1> erm... ?!
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> mc__,  apraently it has a history of security issues.. but i found it best to install it manyally from the webmin site anyway
[07:40] <uniq> fusionxn1: use semicolon. firstcommand;secondcommand.
[07:40] <crimsun> CarlFK: frankly, (2) [ensoniq] 
[07:40] <delight> try right click in gnome and select create starter
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> mc__,  all i used it for was to admin samba shares.
[07:40] <crimsun> CarlFK: although if you had to get any card, an audigy 2 zs would suffice for nearly anything
[07:40] <LilSnipe> Thats a program right?
[07:40] <mc__> Dr_Willis, i used it a lot on my webserver
[07:40] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: yes
[07:40] <Ruben> hi folks

[07:43] <Sally80> where do i download it to?
[07:43] <CarlFK> stammi: to breezy, or from breezy?
[07:43] <Dr_Willis> sudo fdisk /dev/hda

[07:44] <drbreen__> !ruby
[07:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about ruby - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:44] <Dr_Willis> ruby is a very flexable scripting language and more. :)
[07:44] <eyequeue> Bonez56, interpreter
[07:44] <stammi> CarlFK, ups from breezy to dapper
[07:44] <stammi> :)
[07:44] <eyequeue> ruby (1)             - Interpreted object-oriented scripting language
[07:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Sally80: I used /home/jack/earth

[07:44] <Sally80> thank you jack
[07:44] <LilSnipe> Willis, unable to open that dir,'
[07:44] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[07:44] <tmartins>  Anyone knows a better Debian package then the one from http://pkg-voip.buildserver.net / http://buildserver.net ?
[07:45] <CarlFK> stammi: figured as much.  too bad I can't help you either way :)
[07:45] <uniq> stammi: you can try 'dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg' in console.
[07:45] <c|int> wich 1 on that, delight
[07:45] <tmartins> or a channel asterisk debian specific ?
[07:45] <stammi> uniq i'm lookinf for xorgconfig the tool, not xorg.conf
[07:45] <Jack_Sparrow> changing computers back in a sec..
[07:45] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys i was wondering if there is an app for ubuntu that will allow me to create flash animations
[07:46] <Sally80> sudo: ./sh: command not found
[07:46] <skarface> not sure linux is the best thing to develop flash with
[07:46] <uniq> stammi: the command i gave you will help you configure your xorg.conf.
 so I have to use windows
[07:46] <mehrdad> LilSnipe: use GParted
[07:46] <ardchoille> Sally80: You trying to run a .sh file?
[07:46] <LilSnipe> Gparted.
[07:46] <Sally80> sudo: ./sh: command not found
[07:46] <Ruben> friends here is the output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19111
[07:46] <stammi> yep got it. thx uniq
[07:46] <Sally80> thats what i was told torun
[07:46] <nalioth> Sally80: sudo file.sh
[07:46] <Dial_tone> agreed, especially since flash is on v9 but linux is still flash v7
[07:47] <c|int> whats that, network manager help me do
[07:47] <pliz> hi guys! does anyone know how to make ubuntu gnome to give focus to the field of password instead of the unlock button in gnome screen lock?
[07:47] <skarface> Paddy_EIRE: well windows or a mac, probably, yes. linux support for flash is weak.
[07:47] <skarface> or flash support for linux, if you prefer...
[07:47] <Bonez56> Sally80: try just "sudo sh googleearthlinux.bin"
[07:47] <tjb891> does anyone know if synaptic can install CVScedega?
[07:47] <c|int> will that help out for wireless
 http://f4l.sourceforge.net/ is this any good
[07:47] <Dr_Willis> tjb891,  dont think so
[07:48] <skarface> Paddy_EIRE: no idea. try it.
[07:48] <Spooner> ok im back
[07:48] <c|int> tjb891: , cedega is commercial :)

[07:48] <FusionXN1> Anyone got teamspeak Here?
[07:48] <Orbit45244> I'm having problems running Ubuntu off of an i386 Live CD.  Boot up gets stuck at something about "Volume Management" and quits.
[07:48] <LilSnipe2> Whats gparted?
[07:48] <tjb891> CVScedega is open source I believe, normal cedega is commershal
[07:48] <skarface> Orbit45244: what kind of computer?
[07:49] <mc__> !gparted
[07:49] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:49] <Orbit45244> Compaq Presario
[07:49] <mc__> tjb891, cedega is open-source AND commercial
[07:49] <skarface> I had a similar issue, but with a compaq though, with earlier builds... sometimes hardware just plain isn't supported. try googling your particular model.
[07:49] <skarface> but NOT with a compaq
[07:49] <FusionXN1> How do i find out what my LAN IP is?
[07:50] <Sally80> but how do i get to mu home/sally/earth/ dir
[07:50] <pliz> anyone gnome screen lock issue?

[07:50] <Sally80> thanks
[07:51] <LilSnipe2> What is Gparted?
[07:51] <snikker> how can run samba for non 'root' user?
[07:51] <Kyral> tjb891: someplace in ~
[07:51] <skarface> tjb891: ~/.wine/ generally
[07:51] <dli> kennyt, download the source from kernel.org , use kernel-package to build
[07:51] <raboof> hmm, the /var/log/udev is much longer when sound fails compared to when it works.
[07:51] <kennyt> dli: that'll be all nice any ubuntu branded?
[07:51] <Jack_Sparrow> LilSnipe: partitioning program, I prefer to use ultimate boot cd with many tools
[07:51] <Ruben> I want to reinstall ruby but I have problems for uninstall in ubuntu
[07:51] <dli> kennyt, yes
[07:51] <kennyt> dli: great, thanks
[07:51] <Kyral> LilSnipe2: GParted is a GUI frontend for Parted. Its style is that of Partition Magic
[07:51] <FusionXN1> I got a problem with a USB Microphone. NO software will use it - it says it has a problem
[07:52] <sh4dox> hi
[07:52] <raboof> anyone any idea what could cause this?
[07:52] <Kyral> Cousin to QtParted (only difference is one uses GTK and the other uses Qt)
[07:52] <Ruben> here is the output for my problem friends => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19111
[07:52] <sh4dox> i'm in a hurry can someone help me with a tiny problem?
[07:52] <Kyral> "Ubuntu-branded?"
[07:52] <Kyral> *sigh* I support Ubuntu, but it taking over the definition of Linux is not happy
[07:53] <mkns> hi - i've upgraded my kernel from 2.6.15-23-386 to 2.6.15-26-386 but now my wireless adapter "doesn't exist" although it does with the older kernel.  'iwconfig ath0' returns "no such device" - anyone got any clues what to try?
[07:53] <dli> kennyt, too bad when dapper was released, 2.6.17 wasn't released, and 2.6.16 is still a bad (if not the worst) release
[07:53] <Kyral> Though the DFSG protects against someone developing something just for Ubuntu (and expecting it to be in the Repos)
[07:54] <sh4dox> when i try to connect to an other computer screen there are only weird stripes, when i'm watching a movie full screen there are also those euhm "stripes" :s can someone help me out?? it's kinda urgent, cuz me and my girlfriend would like to see a movie yet
[07:54] <amund> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-4.1_4.1.15-1ubuntu5_i386.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1. Anyone know how to fix this?
[07:54] <dli> sh4dox, nvidia card?
[07:54] <sh4dox> dli: yes
[07:54] <Kyral> (Acronym Expansion for non-devs: DFSG: The Debian Free Software Guidelines. Became the basis of the Open Source definition. All packages in Ubuntu must conform to the DFSG)
[07:54] <Sally80> why is it so hard!
[07:54] <dli> sh4dox, follow the nvidia driver howto
[07:54] <dli> !nvidia > sh4dox
[07:55] <sh4dox> dli: i allready did , nothing changed
[07:55] <FusionXN1> WHats the RAR package to enable archieve manager to open and creat .RAR archieves?
[07:55] <FusionXN1> !rar
[07:55] <Paddy_EIRE> cna anyone tell me which irc app is most like XChat-gnome for windows
[07:55] <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
[07:55] <Kyral> Paddy_EIRE: XChat?
[07:55] <Kyral> Or the old standby, mIRC
[07:55] <telmich> hoi
 nice one
[07:55] <dli> sh4dox, double check your xorg.conf, you should state nvidia rather than "nv" as the driver
[07:56] <gregg__> Paddy_EIRE: x-chat originally is an unix/linux app, after all... just got ported to windows
[07:56] <sh4dox> dli: ok, just a sec
[07:56] <Kyral> Actually I think the Win32 version is Shareware
[07:56] <moijven> guten abend
[07:56] <Kyral> the Linux version is GPL
[07:56] <gregg__> Kyral: "offical" builds, yes
[07:56] <Kyral> I use Irssi or Konversation
[07:56] <gregg__> Kyral: you can compile your own build or use someone elses
[07:57] <gregg__> Kyral: it's almost like openbsd
[07:57] <moijven> habe ein ubuntu auf meinem laptop installiert
[07:57] <gregg__> Kyral: irssi is teh ownage ;)
[07:57] <Kyral> For a while I ran Irssi on my server in Screen and to use IRC all I did was SSH to my server and reattach the Screen session to my terminal
[07:57] <amarokker> is it possible to use ubuntu on 64-bit AMD athlon dual core processors/hardware?
[07:57] <FusionXN1> I have installed the rar package but RARs still wont open
[07:57] <Kyral> amarokker: yes
[07:58] <gregg__> moijven: please, hier wird englisch gesprochen ;)
[07:58] <Kyral> Don't ask me about performance though, I'm still running an Athlon XP 2700
[07:58] <mjr> amarokker, indeed it is
[07:58] <dli> amarokker, yes, choose the amd64 SMP kernel
[07:58] <moijven> I installed ubuntu on my laptop and want to play mp3's. but it doesn't work
[07:58] <Kyral> !mp3
[07:58] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:58] <Kyral> yes, mp3 is not free. Use Ogg Vorbis if you can help it
[07:58] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, it didnt for me either..when i installed using synaptic
[07:58] <gregg__> Kyral: that's what I'm doing, too. it's the perfect solution for IRC
[07:58] <FusionXN1> s_spiff so what do i do
[07:59] <phenex> guys, i need to downgrade mysql from 5 to 4... how can i do that? including all the addon packages...
[07:59] <amarokker> ah, yes. dli- and any differences in performance when I use it on hyperthreaded intel processors...which i understand is a 'virtual' sorta dual core...running on one physical processor.
[07:59] <s_spiff> so right click and say 'pen with '
[07:59] <hbi> if ive ran kismet from root where does the files get saved?
[07:59] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, hold on..
[07:59] <rgolden> how do I know EXACTLY which distro I'm running.  Parts of my install say xubuntu and parts say Ubuntu
[07:59] <dek_aik> Sally80: try sudo ./xxxx instead of sudo ./sh xxxx ...xxxx---is your file
[07:59] <FusionXN1> k
[07:59] <ernz> Hello, is anyone here able to offer me some guidance on general Ruby development questions I have?
[07:59] <Kyral> hbi: /root
[07:59] <rgolden> uname -A doesn't do it
[07:59] <gregg__> ernz: #ruby
[07:59] <Kyral> ernz: I know some Ruby, but I'm a beginner
[07:59] <Sally80> suppose the fuile was on desktop?
[07:59] <ernz> gregg__: Good call.
[08:00] <Kyral> ernz: Ruby is an awesome language no?
[08:00] <ardchoille> rgolden: lsb_release -a
[08:00] <Kyral> Its like Java, but good!
[08:00] <rgolden> thanks
[08:00] <gregg__> ernz: I prefer python, though
[08:00] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, right clikc>open with other app>use custom command> type unrar. that should work
[08:00] <rgolden> thanks ardchoille
[08:00] <ardchoille> rgolden: You're welcome :)
[08:00] <ernz> Kyral: That's why I am switching from Microsuck VB.NET to Ruby
[08:00] <Kyral> I'm trying to learn the basics of every major language
[08:00] <FusionXN1> k 1 mo
[08:00] <Kyral> That way I can debug anything if I have to
[08:00] <joevandyk> I'm starting a java applet that allows me to access computers at work.  It's attempting to start a web browser on port 80.  How can I let normal users (i.e. me) start stuff on port 80?
[08:00] <ernz> What would be the best language for me to learn do you reckon?
[08:00] <FusionXN1> count not find unrar
[08:01] <Kyral> or at least provide inteligent bug reports
[08:01] <Kyral> ernz: Depends on your skill level
[08:01] <s_spiff> did u install unrar? or free-unrar?
[08:01] <gregg__> ernz: depends on what you are trying to achieve
[08:01] <ernz> The language needs to be OO, and migratable to WinblowsX
[08:01] <joevandyk> I know Ruby fairly well.
[08:01] <rgolden> says ubuntu 6.06
[08:01] <Kyral> I started with C++ (well, technically with HTML and CSS)
[08:01] <kaatil> hi all
[08:01] <Kyral> OO..
[08:01] <dek_aik> Sally80: try "ls *.bin"
[08:01] <gregg__> ernz: python :p
[08:01] <Kyral> you just named almost every language
[08:01] <phenex> i need to downgrade mysql from 5 to 4... how can i do that? including all the addon packages...
[08:01] <Kyral> Perl has OO facilities
[08:01] <Bonez56> how do you remove automatix?
[08:01] <kaatil> anyone know how i can install japanese input method for gnome? thanks
[08:01] <gregg__> ernz: python has nice win32 extensions and a very good windows port
[08:01] <Kyral> PHP does...
[08:01] <Kyral> Python does
[08:01] <Kyral> Ruby does
[08:02] <ernz> I also want a WYSIWYG - I have build a few clever applications, mostly utility style apps with a practical purpose, rather than database related.
[08:02] <gnomefreak> Bonez56: please ask in #automatix
[08:02] <Kyral> ...WYSIWYG DIE!!
[08:02] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, did u install unrar or freeunrar?
[08:02] <dli> kaatil, install scim
[08:02] <Sally80> ls: *.bin: No such file or directory
[08:02] <Kyral> You dare call yourself a coder!
[08:02] <kaatil> ok
[08:02] <s_spiff> !file compression
[08:02] <ubotu> I know nothing about file compression - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:02] <rredd4> is a Lexmark X2470 supported by Dapper?  Thinking of buying one..
[08:02] <sopido> is there a deb for acroread 7.0.8? i thought version 7.0.1 is vulnerable? or is it fine just to alien'ate adobes official rpm?
[08:02] <Kyral> Use a REAL editor!
[08:02] <gnomefreak> !hardware > rredd4
[08:02] <Kyral> Like Emacs or Vim :P
[08:02] <Ruben> friends help me please
[08:02] <gnomefreak> rredd4: read your pm from the bot
[08:02] <ernz> Kyral: - Slighlty scary. Please lay off the coffee.
[08:02] <Ruben> here is the output for my problem friends => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19111
[08:02] <Kyral> (see I'm editor-neutral :D)
[08:02] <rgolden> bye, more ubuntu work to do
[08:03] <phenex> Kyral, Emacs isn't an editor...
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Kyral: can you please move that to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:03] <dek_aik> Sally80: its the google file right?
[08:03] <Kyral> hahaha
[08:03] <phenex> it's an OS
[08:03] <Kyral> gnomefreak: I was just mentioning :P
[08:03] <Sally80> yes
[08:03] <mercykiller> Ack, phenex beat me to it
[08:03] <mercykiller> hah
[08:03] <Kyral> I didn't start the editor war
[08:03] <Kyral> Note I said Emacs OR Vim
[08:03] <drbreen__> emacs phor the win !!!!
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Kyral: move the topic to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:03] <ernz> Now I'm confused....Python, or Ruby? Python...Ruby....
[08:03] <drbreen__> gedit or mousepad !!!
[08:03] <gregg__> ernz, wysiwyg for programming?
[08:03] <drbreen__> or gobby !
[08:03] <Kyral> these other guys started it :P
[08:03] <Kyral> ernz: Both!
[08:04] <mercykiller> ernz: I've heard that ruby is more elegant
[08:04] <gnomefreak> Kyral: you are muted for 10 mins
[08:04] <drbreen__> gedit ? mousepad ? gobby ? kate ? kwrite ? abiword ? pick one !
[08:04] <gnomefreak> drbreen__: stop now
[08:04] <ernz> gregg__: You can knock WYSIWYG IDE's all you wan't the fact is that they build apps quicker.
[08:04] <drbreen__> ok ill stop
[08:04] <FusionXN1> s_spiff free unrar
[08:04] <ed_> Anyone have any experience installing VMWare Workstation under Dapper?
[08:04] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, install unrar.. using sudo apt-get in terminal
[08:04] <dek_aik> Sally80: and you dont know where it is? it should be in your home i suppose
[08:05] <gregg__> ernz: never seen a wysiwyg ide :)
[08:05] <ernz> mercykiller: Ruby is certainly a lot cleverer by the looks of it. Python looks slightly Chunky. A bit more C++ish.
[08:05] <Sally80> i can put it on hom
[08:05] <FusionXN1> I did it says its missing
[08:05] <ernz> Dev. GUI* gregg__
[08:05] <phenex> python is about as easy to learn as it gets...
[08:05] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  what are you having problems with?
[08:05] <FusionXN1> Anyone help me perform this please! http://www.daniel-lemire.com/blog/archives/2005/10/12/logitech-usb-desktop-microphone-under-linux/ I cant do it in ubuntu
[08:05] <Ronz> hey hey everyone
[08:05] <gregg__> ernz: yes, but programming by point'n'click? that's news for me :)
[08:05] <mercykiller> ernz: Ruby treats just about _everything_ in an OO fashion, I believe...
[08:05] <ed_> Hexidigital: I have the proper kernel headers, am trying to build the vmmon, and it craps out with an error.
[08:05] <gnomefreak> MOVE THE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE TO #UBUNTU-OFFTOPIC EVERYONE
[08:06] <rredd4> gnomefreak the Lexmark X2470 is not listed in hardware support, its to new
[08:06] <ed_> Hexidigital: One sec while I grab the error.
[08:06] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  pastebin the error
[08:06] <Hexidigital_> !paste > ed_
[08:06] <dli> gnomefreak, don't shout or flood here
[08:06] <mercykiller> Though I'm a Java/C guy so...eh
[08:06] <phenex> wow... there is really a channel like that... cool :P
[08:06] <kaatil> when i try to install scim-tables-ja.. it say it has conflict.
[08:06] <Sally80> i give up, but thanks for trying
[08:06] <phenex> and yet again...
[08:06] <phenex> i need to downgrade mysql from 5 to 4... how can i do that? including all the addon packages...
[08:06] <Hexidigital_> heh... i love it when people yell at the ops...
[08:06] <kaatil> because Scim has >1.1.0 whatever that mean
[08:07] <gregg__> ernz: not that I don't like building GUIs in a graphical way, but the programming itself still has to be done by hand, doesn't it?
[08:07] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, did it work? ' sudo apt-get install unrar '
[08:07] <kaatil> btw i am using ubuntu dagger
[08:07] <MarcC> is that like the 007 version? :D
[08:07] <s_spiff> FusionXN1, then just follow the previous instructions..rightclick>use othr app>...
[08:07] <ernz> Hexidigital_: Basically, I want the interface from M$.NET enviroment, with the coding of Ruby, All I see from Ruby is code, everywhere. Good code, but code, nontheless.No draggy droppy nice and simple stuff holding my hand. Now people say Python is the way to go. Whats the dealio?
[08:08] <onur> phenex, i really wonder why do you want to downgrade?
[08:08] <ernz> gregg__: True, it's nice to have a basic, set template to work with though.
[08:08] <Hexidigital_> ernz::  i'm not familiar with your problem, lemme look back in my log
[08:08] <phenex> onur, to be able to run mythTV 0.18
[08:08] <gregg__> ernz: python IMHO has more and better 3rd party libraries and bindings
[08:08] <mohkohn> hello
[08:08] <rredd4> how can I know if a printer is supported by dapper if the model # is not listed (because its too new) in hardware support.  Its a Lexmark
[08:08] <Ruben> Ruby is the best of this world :)!
[08:08] <Brasero> wich is best flashplayer with dapper ?
[08:09] <MarcC> version 7...don't try 9
[08:09] <Hexidigital_> ernz::  i'm not a programmer, so i dont know what you are looking for... sorry

[08:09] <MilesAttacca> My Ubuntu 64 live CD keeps freezing when I try to play one of the sample media files with Totem. The system just locks up, mouse doesn't respond, keyboard won't even let me turn the Num Lock light on. It's happened at least three times so far and I've had to restart each time. Any ideas?
[08:09] <move> I have a bt878 tuner and I dunno how to install it
[08:09] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19112
[08:09] <rredd4> jrib ok, ty
[08:10] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  :) good timing
[08:10] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Had to go through the installer again.
[08:10] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  ah
[08:10] <sh4dox> nope won't work
[08:10] <sh4dox> can someone else help me??
[08:10] <ernz> gregg__: You make me feel like a n00b.
[08:10] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  gimme one second
[08:10] <Ruben> I want to migrate 100 % to ubuntu, but for this problem of uninstall of ruby I cannot
[08:10] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: I'm a coder, but not a kernel hacker. :/
[08:11] <sh4dox> when i'm watching a movie full screen there are "stripes" in my screen, watching it normal size works it fine
[08:11] <gregg__> ernz: it's not that hard... wait a sec
[08:11] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  what are you trying to install? the vmware-mui?
[08:11] <ernz> gregg__ sure
[08:11] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: It's VMware Workstation 4.0.5--I realize there's an upgrade, but this one's the latest supported by a piece of software that I have to run under it.
[08:12] <MilesAttacca> I'm supposing that the crashes are just related to running Ubuntu through the live CD, but it isn't, after all, encouraging.
[08:12] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: I'm trying to install the whole package--it's labeled vmware-distrib.
[08:12] <FusionXN1> Wheres the UNRAR package? It isnt there
[08:12] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  is that bundled with vmware-server, do you know?
[08:12] <z3r0x> hi @ all
[08:12] <move> REAL QUICK LIKE: can someone recommend a tv tuner application that may possibly work for my NON-happauge card?
[08:12] <kaatil> hi z3
[08:12] <jrib> !info unrar
[08:12] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.4-0.1 (dapper), package size 84 kB, installed size 216 kB
[08:12] <jrib> FusionXN1: multiverse
[08:13] <z3r0x> how can I check if the dns server answers over tcp/udp
[08:13] <WhiteNinja> ed_: the last 4x version, supported was 4_5_2_884
[08:13] <FusionXN1> k jrib
[08:13] <gregg__> ernz: http://pygtk.org/articles.html
[08:13] <jrib> FusionXN1: are you comfortable enabling multiverse?
[08:13] <ernz> gregg_ looking now
[08:13] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  what did it ask for before that pastebin'ed output?
[08:13] <ardchoille> gregg__ , ernz : Can you take the programming convo to #ubuntu-offtopic please like gnomefreak asked?
[08:14] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Just the normal--location of compiler and kernel headers.
[08:14] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  ok, did it give you a gtk > 3.5 error? (something like that)
[08:14] <gregg__> ardchoille: ok
[08:14] <FusionXN1> Can someone help me with this: http://www.daniel-lemire.com/blog/archives/2005/10/12/logitech-usb-desktop-microphone-under-linux/
[08:14] <omar12> how do i watch cnn video... its saying plugin update required
[08:14] <kaatil> 
[08:15] <gnomefreak> Kyral: you are un mutted
[08:15] <Kyral> OWW!!
[08:15] <jrib> !zh
[08:15] <ubotu> For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[08:15] <WhiteNinja> ed_: u have to change the gcc-compiler for ur version
[08:15] <kaatil> oops
[08:15] <jadams> my wireless card doesn't show up anymore since upgrading my kernel.  Can anyone give me some pointers?  My lspci -v output is here: http://rafb.net/paste/results/Lvtel232.html
[08:15] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: No--the only error it gave me was the bad kernel header.
[08:15] <Kyral> Jeez....what was THAT for
[08:15] <WhiteNinja> there is a howto on the net for it
[08:15] <eddie> Is there a way to get rid of the applications, Places and System words and replace them with icons?
[08:15] <Kyral> I specifically worded my statement to AVOID the editor war
[08:15] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  have you upgraded your kernel recently? sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[08:15] <facugaich> Hex editor recommendations?
[08:15] <ernz> ardchoille: ya ya ya - I'm going. I know when I'm not wanted.
[08:15] <jrib> eddie: you can have it be one single icon, it is an applet you can add to the panel
[08:16] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: I just upgraded from Breezy, so I imagine so.
[08:16] <ed_> Lemme check.
[08:16] <Kyral> ernz: didja get my PMSG
[08:16] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  i don tthink the headers get upgraded automagically
[08:16] <ernz> Kyral => " IDEs are Anjuta for GNOME and KDevelop for KDE"? That one
[08:16] <MilesAttacca> Any ideas on why the live CD keeps locking up the computer when I try to play media files?
[08:16] <Kyral> yup
[08:16] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: No, they don't--but I have headers 2.6.15-26, and that's my kernel version as well.
[08:17] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  odd.... ok, gimme a sec
[08:17] <ernz> Yerp - thanks for that
[08:17] <WhiteNinja> Hexidigital... ed_  it is not only a problem of headers... vmware 4x before 4.5x is compiled with the old gcc.. u have to install this gcc-version, too
[08:17] <eddie> jrib: got it, but how do I get rid of the existing one?
[08:17] <WhiteNinja> setting some symlinks.. than it will work
[08:17] <abhinay> i hv Dapper Drake; GRUB is gone, is it possible to install GRUB using Breezy Badger installation CD  ?
[08:18] <ed_> abhinay: Go into the CD in rescue mode and run grub-install.
[08:18] <ed_> WhiteNinja: Ah, cool, that'd make it a lot easier.
[08:18] <tabman> I wanna copy a file from one directory to another, whats the command ?
[08:18] <jrib> eddie: right click on it and remove I think (not in gnome right now)
[08:18] <facugaich> can someone tell me their hex editor of choice?
[08:18] <ed_> WhiteNinja: How old a version am I looking for? 3.x?
[08:18] <WhiteNinja> there is a howto on the net... google for it
[08:18] <ed_> WhiteNinja: Alright, thanks.
[08:18] <abhinay> ed_, thanku
[08:18] <webben> does anyone here have libxslt on their machine?
[08:18] <ompaul> tabman, cp /path/to/file1 /path/to/copyoffile/file1 or change file1 in the second part to change the file name
[08:19] <ghostdog> is there a bug in the i810 driver in dapper?
[08:19] <webben> (and know how to produce html from it)
[08:19] <MilesAttacca> ...Anyone?
[08:19] <ghostdog> I am having video issues (extremely bright colors)
[08:19] <ghostdog> it happens on and off, so it is not a "conf" file issue
[08:19] <ompaul> webben, it is in lots of places, and I have no idea
[08:19] <Ruben> Friends can help with the uninstall of a program, here this output => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19111
[08:20] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  sudo apt-get install g++-3.4    (i have a feeling it is a g++ error)
[08:20] <ed_> Hexidigital_: Yeah, I'm trying that now.
[08:20] <InterNut> anyone know why i get a wierd pic (http://internut.no-ip.org/webcam/) when using webcamd but when im trying camorama it works?
[08:21] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: possibly a problem with display drivers?
[08:21] <eddie> jrib: thx that was it
[08:21] <facugaich> Ruben, what do you want to do? uninstall everything related to ruby=?
[08:21] <Hexidigital_> eddie::  is that the installer, or vmware-config.pl ?
[08:22] <tabman> ompaul: cp: cannot stat `/usr/lib/java/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.06/include/linux/jni_md.h': No such file or directory
[08:22] <Hexidigital_> eddie::  sorry, wrong person
[08:22] <Ruben> facugaich: yes
[08:22] <Jenkens> quit
[08:22] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  is that the installer, or vmware-config.pl ?
[08:22] <MilesAttacca> munchfish: I guess that'd be a possibility. Any chance it'll automatically clear itself up when I install?
[08:22] <MilesAttacca> *munckfish, sorry.
[08:22] <Hexidigital_> !tab
[08:22] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[08:23] <move> when installing mythtv it asks me for the mysql administrator user/password
[08:23] <ompaul> tabman, that means the file you point at is missing
[08:23] <move> I don't know what that is
[08:23] <naknomik> I am trying to configure CUPS server using the KDE system settings GUI (Printers -> Print Server -> Configure Server), it asks me to authenticate, but I'm unable to do so, I have set a root password, but the authentication always fails.
[08:23] <move> how do I find it out
[08:23] <Spec> move: have you installed mysql?
[08:23] <brandon_> why doesn't the command "apt-spy" work?
[08:23] <Spec> !info apt-spy
[08:23] <ubotu> apt-spy: writes a sources.list file based on bandwidth tests. In repository universe, is optional. Version 3.1-14 (dapper), package size 27 kB, installed size 176 kB
[08:23] <move> Spec: it was just installed automatically when I apt-get installed mythtv I believe
[08:23] <ompaul> brandon_, cos it is not installed?
[08:23] <Spec> brandon_: how does it not work?
[08:23] <brandon_> it's supposed to be dammit
[08:24] <ed_>  Hexidigital_:: vmware-config.pl; it chains into it out of ./vmware-install.pl
[08:24] <torti-> evening guys, i just switched from gentoo to ubuntu and now i'm looking for some good howtos/hints to change my mailsystem from mbox to maildir - can anyone give me a hand?
[08:24] <facugaich> Ruben, the problem is package "ruby" is not installed, I guess you have to uninstall "ruby1.8" or "ruby1.9"
[08:24] <Spec> move: well, you might have to do some configuration of mysql
[08:24] <tabman> ompaul: but I can see the file in front of me
[08:24] <move> Spec: how do I tell if it's installed?
[08:24] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: I doubt it. Better to do a bit of investigation and tuning now rather than get to the disk and have probs
[08:24] <tabman> I just can't copy paste it due to access rights, I'm being forced to do it through the terminal
[08:24] <Spec> move: dpkg -l |grep -i sql
[08:24] <ardchoille> tabman: upper/lower case issue?
[08:24] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, still there?
[08:24] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  go here.... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VmWare  it tells you NOT to run vmware-config.pl; it gives you a walkthrough for proper configuration
[08:24] <tabman> archoille: i checked that as well
[08:24] <joevandyk> How can I configure my system so that a normal user can start an application on port 80?
[08:24] <Kyral> You DON'T
[08:25] <Spec> joevandyk: you don't
[08:25] <ompaul> tabman, ls -al that file
[08:25] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Let me check that out...
[08:25] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: yes..any luck?
[08:25] <joevandyk> Spec, it's not possible?
[08:25] <ardchoille> tabman: yu can drag a file from nautilus to gnome-terminal and it will put the path and filename in the terminal
[08:25] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  lemme know if it works out
[08:25] <naknomik> I'm unable to login as root to http://localhost:631/ what's wrong?
[08:25] <Kyral> Traditionally Unix has forbidden users to start anything that listens on a port
[08:25] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: you ok to look thru the faq/wiki/forums for info on display drivers? It's been a pretty common problem
[08:25] <Spec> joevandyk: I think you can setuid maybe and run it as root, and somehow change ownership of the process to another user...i think that's what zope does
[08:25] <ompaul> naknomik, there is no root
[08:25] <Kyral> FOR GOOD REASONS!
[08:25] <ramiroec> just a question: I want to download only the zip's files from a Website, is there an option with wget command ?
[08:25] <joevandyk> I've got a web java applet that needs to start some proxy services.  It works if I run the web browser as root, but that's a pain.
[08:25] <jrib> naknomik: is that for cups?
[08:25] <naknomik> ompaul: I have set a root password.
[08:25] <naknomik> jrib: yes.
[08:26] <jrib> naknomik: use system > administration > printing instead, or read /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian.gz
[08:26] <eyequeue> naknomik, sounds like whatever listener may be on that port is smartly configured :)
[08:26] <Spec> joevandyk: hmm, running a web browser as root isn't recommended either
[08:26] <joevandyk> Spec, yeah, I know.
[08:26] <MilesAttacca> munckfish: I'll take a look, sure.
[08:26] <Kyral> Well, you satrt it as root
[08:26] <joevandyk> Spec, but the applet needs to start services on ports < 1024
[08:26] <tabman> ardchoille: cool, how do you clear the whole line on a terminal btw ?
[08:26] <Kyral> and Apache immeadiatly changes to an unprivledged user
[08:26] <Spec> joevandyk: the web java app runs via apache?
[08:26] <chris86wm> hey gaim doesnt seem to work with yahoo im anymore, is it something im doing or is the problem something yahoo has done?
[08:27] <z3r0x> I have a little problem. how can I find out on wich server i'm logged in? (its a vserver and I need to find out if it is ass1.nine.ch or ass2.nine.ch)
[08:27] <ompaul> naknomik, then as they say all bets are off you should do >> sudo dpkg-reconfigure cupsys << that is how to do it in ubuntu
[08:27] <MilesAttacca> munckfish: Any way I can confirm that it's actually a display problem, though?
[08:27] <move> Spec: that gave me a big list of sql stuff
[08:27] <FusionXN1> Can someone tell me how to install relatek sound drivers
[08:27] <Kyral> normally "apache" or "www-user"
[08:27] <PeterPowell> who can help me
[08:27] <moijven> Kyral: now it works...thanks
[08:27] <Spec> move: then there's a big list full of sql stuff installed =P
[08:27] <ardchoille> tabman: Not sure, never needed to
[08:27] <PeterPowell> i need uregent help plz
[08:27] <joevandyk> Spec, No.  It's a Java applet.
[08:27] <kaatil> okay i got japanese SCIM working fine so far. :D
[08:27] <jrib> PeterPowell: ask your question first :)
[08:27] <Spec> joevandyk: but it's served by ...what?
[08:27] <joevandyk> Spec, it probably has its own webserver embedded in it.
[08:27] <Spec> joevandyk: oh
[08:27] <Bonez56> I have audio problem with wine, when I start the wine control panel and click the audio tab, wine exits immediately. i also can not get any sound from wine programs.
[08:27] <PeterPowell> how do i change partition siez
[08:28] <PeterPowell> *sizes
[08:28] <Kyral> Carefully
[08:28] <Spec> joevandyk: i don't know what you'd do :p sorry
[08:28] <eyequeue> chris86wm, i have no info on that, but i do know yahoo and msn just became "compatible" somehow, if no other info comes in i'd investigate that
[08:28] <PeterPowell> anybody know?
[08:28] <facugaich> PeterPowell: Gparted
[08:28] <Bonez56> PeterPowell: gparted
[08:28] <PeterPowell> how do i do that
[08:28] <sh4dox> help!!
[08:28] <ardchoille> !info gparted
[08:28] <sh4dox> i can't install my nvidia drivers :s
[08:28] <ubotu> gparted: partition editor for GNOME. In repository main, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu10 (dapper), package size 232 kB, installed size 1280 kB
[08:28] <chris86wm> eyequeue, well i can see my buddy list but i cant join a chat room
[08:28] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: It's just a guess on my part that playing video/media files is a more graphics intensive task. So my gut feeling is that ubuntu has chosen a some sort of basic generic driver which is not sitting well with your card ...
[08:28] <PeterPowell> ok
[08:28] <PeterPowell> ty
[08:29] <chris86wm> eyequeue, does the same for ylite on windows so it may be something yahoo has done
[08:29] <sh4dox> i just finished for the 5th time they wikipage and i'm still getting errors :s
[08:29] <eyequeue> chris86wm, i wonder if that's part of the protocol change?  could be
[08:29] <Bonez56> I have audio problem with wine, when I start the wine control panel and click the audio tab, wine exits immediately. i also can not get any sound from wine programs.
[08:29] <chris86wm> eyequeue, guess i will just have to wait for a fix
[08:29] <eyequeue> chris86wm, i wish i knew a url to give you that had specific details
[08:30] <MilesAttacca> munckfish: It's a built-in card on this motherboard anyway. *sigh* Really will have to change that sometime.
[08:30] <chris86wm> eyequeue, i tried searching ubuntu's forums but there were no posts about it
[08:30] <move> Spec: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19116
[08:30] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: best to get all the details on it and search the forums and wiki for any info/tips relating to it
[08:30] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Question, on this howto. Doesn't make sense to me, but I may be thinking of it wrong--it says to use the version of gcc used to compile the kernel, but that version differs from 3.4--won't that result in incompatibilities?
[08:30] <byen> Guys, I can only mount usb drives using sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd.. how can i auto mount them.. how can i black list this from laoding? any suggestions
[08:31] <MilesAttacca> munckfish: Right. Time to dig out its manual then.
[08:31] <sh4dox> byen => wikipage => search for mount partitions ;-
[08:31] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: to get the info you require type this in a terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[08:31] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  afaik, use the version that you compiled with
[08:31] <ed_> Hexidigital_: Righto. Can't hurt anything anyway.
[08:31] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: that'll list you graphics card type/manufacturer etc
[08:32] <Spec> move: maybe mysql's not running
[08:32] <MilesAttacca> munckfish: Awesome. By the way, are there any how-to books out on Ubuntu yet? I've just got a pocket O'Reilly reference for Fedora.
[08:32] <ramiroec> just a question: I want to download only the zip's files from a Website, is there an option with wget command ?
[08:32] <sh4dox> hey, can someone help me?! it's kinda urgent
[08:32] <Spec> move: i don't know much about setting it up though, i'm sure there's thousands of docs online that'll help you with that
[08:33] <ed_> sh4dox: Little vague--can you amplify on that?
[08:33] <jadams> is my wireless card simply not being detected at all anymore?  lspci -v output at http://rafb.net/paste/results/Lvtel232.html
[08:33] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: yeah I've seen one. I think there's a link to info about it from somewhere in the help docs (System > Help)
[08:33] <sioux> hi people
[08:33] <eyequeue> chris86wm, the only things i've been able to find on google are the "announcement" type posts, nothing on technical details
[08:33] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, no luck yet :( but i got the system beep working :)
[08:33] <munckfish> MilesAttacca: one of the authors is a guy called Jono Bacon ...
[08:34] <sioux> how can i add a fax printer?
[08:34] <FeestBijtje> and its yelling allow
[08:34] <FeestBijtje> allot*
[08:34] <sh4dox> ed_: when i'm trying to do "binarydriverhowtonvidia" i'm always receiving an error
[08:34] <ardchoille> sh4dox: Would help if you pastebin the error
[08:34] <chris86wm> eyequeue, thanks for checking, i think ill just have to play with it a bit
[08:34] <ardchoille> !paste
[08:34] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[08:34] <sh4dox> ardchoille: i'm doing it atm
[08:34] <ardchoille> ah, ok
[08:35] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: do u have 2 soundcards? onboard and pci?
[08:35] <tengil> how do i set up to mount filesystems on different computer internally with nfs?
[08:35] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, yes
[08:35] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, i use the pci one with is soundblaste
[08:35] <tengil> also can i mount from a windows partition with nfs or do i need to use samba for that?
[08:35] <sh4dox> ardchoille: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19117
[08:36] <raboof> where do i specify stuff to be started on startup (machine or x session I don't mind)? like jackd?
[08:36] <zzy> i cant paste a file to my hd
[08:36] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Well, it compiled...doesn't work when running, though. "Has not been correctly configured for your kernel, run vmware-config.pl."
[08:36] <facugaich> tengil, you can mount and read ntfs, writing is what's not supported
[08:36] <jadams> my wireless chip isn't listed in my lspci output.  I'm using a Gateway M500.  http://rafb.net/paste/results/Lvtel232.html
[08:36] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: well, i had this problem..try to swap them..give me a sec
[08:36] <zzy> i have it on my desktop and i hit cutt but  cant paste it to my hd
[08:36] <facugaich> tengil, not fully supported
[08:36] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  hmmm
[08:36] <MilesAttacca> Second issue, how should you go about setting up a Linux-Windows dual-boot system? A friend said I should partition with MS-DOS FDISK, install Windows, then install Linux and set up grub.
[08:37] <raboof> i guess I could put it in my ~/.xsession or something, but there must be a `ubuntu way' :)
[08:37] <sh4dox> ardchoille: i followed all the steps from the wiki and when i go to the terminal for entering that line, this error appears
[08:37] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: If this was my computer, I'd just use qemu, but my parents are using it and they're computer-illiterate.
[08:37] <agresor> anyone know how to setup webcam on ubuntu ???
[08:37] <jrib> !webcam
[08:37] <ubotu> webcam is now easy to install on Linux; instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Webcam Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[08:37] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  heh
[08:37] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, intel works but sb live wont work thats the problem and i want to use sb live because its higher quality sound
[08:37] <tengil> facugaich: no i dont want to mount a ntfs partition. i want to use nfs or something to mount drives on other computers
[08:38] <ardchoille> sh4dox: I got that error many times. just do md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum
[08:38] <tengil> if all are linux
[08:38] <zzy> i have a file on my desktop i hit right mouse click and cutt and when i go to paste it on my hd the paste button isnt highlighted
[08:38] <ardchoille> sh4dox: That error actually tells you what to do to fix it
[08:39] <z3r0x> is it possible to find out on which vserver the account bewerber-38.nine.ch is? (i can log in to bewerber-38.nine.ch)
[08:39] <sh4dox> ardchoille:  are you sure?
[08:39] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  do you have these installed? binutils cpp gcc libc6-dev
[08:39] <sh4dox> ardchoille: i don't want to mess with the X config
[08:39] <sh4dox> ardchoille: it scares me :D (everytime i tried something went wrong and i couldn't fix it => format)
[08:39] <ed_> Hexidigital_: Yes to all.
[08:40] <brandon_> what do you guys think of this: http://www.softwareinreview.com/cms/content/view/44/1/
[08:40] <facugaich> tengil, oops, I thought you had mispelled ntfs
[08:40] <zzy> i have a file on my desktop i hit right mouse click and cutt and when i go to paste it on my hd the paste button isnt highlighted
[08:40] <ardchoille> sh4dox: Ok, never mind then
[08:40] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  i dont know... i'm out of ideas :(
[08:40] <ed_> 
[08:40] <byen> I try sudo echo "blacklist ehci_hcd" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and it says permission denied... how can i blacklist it? as my usb drives do not mount until i use  sudo modprobe -r ehci-hcd
[08:40] <mohkohn> hello
[08:40] <raboof> (sometimes i feel #ubuntu has me on mass-ignore :))
[08:40] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Think that running the vmware-config.pl might work, or at least not break anything?
[08:40] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  i stared at that wiki trying to think of something that may be missing... have you considered using vmware-server?
[08:40] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: basically you have to modprobe also the sb module..if only i know the name
[08:41] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  i doubt it will break anything
[08:41] <sh4dox> ardchoille: i just did it (saw your answer a bit late)
[08:41] <mohkohn> I am having difficulties getting qemu to compile.http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19114
[08:41] <johlin> I need a little guide for helping my friend understand the filesystem (like /home is home directory, /usr/bin is the equalivent of program files and so on).
[08:41] <sh4dox> ardchoille: i'm off for reboot
[08:41] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  worst case, it won't configure vmware
[08:41] <ed_> Hexidigital_: I haven't considered it, because I know nothing about it. ;)
[08:41] <FusionXN1> I have installed my OSS sound drivers but ALSA is still failing where do i get them ?
[08:41] <mohkohn> This pastebin is the output from make.
[08:41] <eyequeue> raboof, for the "ubuntu way" see "man update-rc.d"
[08:41] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  imo, it is the same as workstation, but with more capabilities

[08:41] <Hexidigital_> !anyone
[08:41] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:41] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: The usual two questions: is it free, and is it easier? :p
[08:42] <tengil> facugaich: nope but do you know if i also from windows can mount something from linux when i have nfs on the linux box?
[08:42] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  yes, and depends
[08:42] <mohkohn> this may be the issue: ERROR: QEMU requires SDL or Cocoa for graphical output
[08:42] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  www.vmware.com/products/server
[08:42] <ed_> Hexidigital_:: Hmm. Might have to look.
[08:42] <Senesence> Is there a "Program Files" like folder in Ubuntu, where all applications are installed? What is it?
[08:42] <Hexidigital_> ed_::  you have to register for a serial, which they email you
[08:42] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: maybe snd_emu10k1
[08:42] <Ace2006> Why are the repositories so slow?

[08:47] <XTC> does linux use some special encryption key while crypting /etc/shadow passwords ?

[08:48] <c|int> I wouldn't mind using the command line to do it

[08:48] <mjr> XTC, they're not actually encrypted, they're one-way hashed
[08:48] <c|int> finally, getting further, with this wireless broadcom. thats a plus.. just want to show instructors.. vmware, running inside linux, wireless
[08:49] <sh4dox> ardchoille: yes, that's when i receive the error
 XTC, they're not actually encrypted, they're one-way hashed => so there is one way randomly generated DES key ... which there is no way for me to find out ?
[08:49] <mkns> c|int - the GUI stuff is in System -> Administration -> Networking
[08:49] <eyequeue> XTC, an MD5 hash i believe
[08:49] <c|int> yes I understand
[08:49] <XTC> eyequeue, i think its DES :/
[08:49] <ardchoille> sh4dox: The error also said to change the driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , did you do that?
[08:49] <zzy>  gksudo nautilus
[08:49] <zzy> i got some error
[08:49] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: start from module snd_emu10k1_synth
[08:49] <gregg__> XTC: you can choose the hash type
[08:49] <mkns> i configured my wireless today (only installed ubuntu this morning)
[08:49] <c|int> but you see, I the gui isn't really fast enough, and I have had some luck, with command line things better. is there a specific command to connect to a wireless access point, using the commandl ine
[08:49] <mjr> XTC, no, no key. And the old crypt was des-based, nowadays md5 is used
[08:49] <Senesence> eyequeue: Oh I see, I was asking because I manually installed blender (not through synaptic) which gave me just one folder. I'm wondering where to put that folder.
[08:50] <sh4dox> ardchoille: no i diddn't i don't like messing with the xorg.conf
[08:50] <XTC> oh... :) been a while...
[08:50] <mkns> ah - i see what you mean
[08:50] <c|int> okay I just did, sudo iwlist scanning
[08:50] <XTC> so i can try to break this md5...?
[08:50] <zzy>  gksudo nautilus gave me a error
[08:50] <mjr> (it still wasn't des encryption, but a one-way hash based on des)
[08:50] <mkns> c|int - well, when you run 'iwconfig' it'll list your configuration
[08:50] <XTC> i mean... it's breakable ?
[08:50] <c|int> that correct my bit rate,, thought it was 54 mbps, its not .. 11 heh
[08:50] <cica> gnomefreak: there is what appears to be three different types XMMS/GDM/Icon. Which one should I be going for?
[08:50] <gregg__> XTC: not easily
[08:50] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: btw, this a link to 2 soundcards problem http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=MultipleCards
[08:50] <Jack_Smirnoff> zzy: what error
[08:50] <ardchoille> sh4dox: Go back to that page you read 7 times and read it an 8th time, particularly the third step under "Troubleshooting" at the bottom.
[08:50] <cica> or what is the difference
[08:50] <mjr> XTC, you can try. It's not easy. Mostly you can try and guess it.
[08:50] <c|int> longwave: , was really helping me out. yesterday, and before. he really is good at troubleshooting
[08:51] <sh4dox> ardchoille: ok, hold on
[08:51] <gregg__> XTC: that means... in theory you can find it out by brute force, but in reality this won't work ATM
[08:51] <zzy> (nautilus:5916): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[08:51] <zzy> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[08:51] <mkns> c|int - and once you've connected to it, have a look at your /etc/network/interfaces file where the settings will be (including your cleartext WEP password, ridiculously)
[08:51] <XTC> so nothing without dictionary...
[08:51] <c|int> hey mks
[08:51] <FusionXN1> People are going to hate me for this - but I have to go back to windows
[08:51] <c|int> well, my house I'm at now.. dont' have the router, set for wep, so
[08:51] <ardchoille> sh4dox: Probably a good idea to open a terminal and type this:  sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak   to make a copy of it just in case.
[08:51] <XTC> thanks...
[08:52] <c|int> my buddy, we have the a wireless linksys, and a wireless gaming device as well, thats why
[08:52] <khoda`> i have a problem. my internet takes awhile to connect to websites, irc, etc. once connected, it's fine. i think it's a dns issue - but the servers in my resolv.conf are correct. everything works fine in windows. what should i do??
[08:52] <c|int> I"m going to do a paste bin for ya, mkns, if thats okay
[08:52] <c|int> so you can see what I"m working with
[08:52] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: in your case, the intel is loaded first then sb, that is why intel works ans not sb...look at the bottom of the link there a hinthow to change that
[08:52] <mkns> c|int - I have no idea what that means, but go for it
[08:52] <gregg__> FusionXN1: why should they hate you? :)
[08:53] <mkns> FusionXN1 - I run both XP and Linux simultaneously - it's the only way to be!
[08:53] <c|int> thank you
[08:53] <tvgm2___> :
[08:53] <c|int> anyone else, feel free to help, I could use it
[08:53] <zzy> can someone help me
[08:53] <mohkohn> Which package contains zlib.h
[08:53] <c|int> mkns:
[08:53] <mohkohn> ?
[08:53] <c|int> have you ever tried, vmware, or any virtualization?
[08:53] <mkns> i use vmware, yes, all the time
[08:53] <Spec> Can I do a cron like this:     30 10,15,20 * * * root sh /path/to/some/script && sh /path/to/some/other/script           : and expect it to run the first script, and only run the second script after the first script is done and is successful?
[08:53] <sh4dox> ardchoille: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19121
[08:53] <ompaul> zzy, you trying to run it as root?
[08:53] <gnomefreak> mohkohn: i think its the kernel-header package
[08:53] <FusionXN1> Well LOTS of stuff dont work onubuntu
[08:53] <dcordero> hi, i have a problem... why, if ubuntu work actually with kernel 2.4.15-26, why the only linux-source package are 2.4.15 and not is 2.4.15-26?
[08:53] <tvgm2___> :tasers
[08:53] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: errrr...in that link the guy also had an intel and SB!
[08:53] <sh4dox> ardchoille: it says "nv"
[08:53] <FusionXN1> My mic, tv tuner, soundcard
[08:53] <mehrdad> mohkohn: I think zlib-devel
[08:54] <mkns> Spec - yes
[08:54] <c|int> me as an IT, and Developer can't even figure out this little wireless issue, but its hardwaer, and I ddidn't create or engineer the laptop
[08:54] <Spec> mkns: thought so, thanks.
[08:54] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, tha last one?
[08:54] <eyequeue> mohkohn, for one, linux-headers-2.6.15-23-686: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-23-686/include/linux/zlib.h
[08:54] <sh4dox> ardchoille: that does mean my driver ain't installed?
[08:54] <c|int> thats cool
[08:54] <teferra> need to install a kmfl package with an install.sh script. When i give that on command line i get no such comand error.??
[08:54] <ardchoille> sh4dox: did you make a backup yet?
[08:54] <c|int> we can be friends, aquaintances if you want
[08:54] <mkns> Spec - everything after the user is just a shell command, so if it works from your terminal, it should work from cron in the same way
[08:54] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: yes..
[08:54] <mkns> c|int - ;)
[08:54] <c|int> here is what it looked like,-> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19120

[08:55] <cica> can anyone advise on how to install icon themes please??
[08:55] <sh4dox> ardchoille: how do i make a backup?
[08:55] <kupesoft> any way to scan memory on an ubuntu server with no monitor
[08:55] <brandon_> apt-spy doesn't work properly because it looks for debian mirrors instead of ubuntu mirrors
[08:55] <ardchoille> sh4dox: Probably a good idea to open a terminal and type this:  sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak   to make a copy of it just in case.
[08:55] <kupesoft> for errors, like memtest86+
[08:55] <c|int> this is my college, ->  www.robertmorris.edu/cs/   I"m working on.. getting books paid off. so I can return.. heh. do a commercial for them , and part of it, and they don't pay off the books, eh

[08:55] <c|int> do you want to look for themes, on gnome look or kde, or you already know that?
[08:56] <ardchoille> sh4dox: After you make the backup, change the nv to nvidia in the driver section that you pasted earlier. Then save the changes to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and reboot.
[08:56] <cica> c|int I'd appreciate the help :-)

[09:09] <jbroome> darrenmarshall: #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:09] <c|int> or maybe it was because, I installed the.. different display splas,
[09:09] <bl3ssing> FeestBijtje, i asked you something else. :(
[09:09] <mkns> eyequeue - i have a line in my sources.list reading the following: "deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-updates main restricted" - so do I need another line the same with the word "main" removed?
[09:09] <c|int> so hey all, how would you connect to a wireless network, via command line
[09:09] <eyequeue> mkns, main, restricted, universe, multiverse, all different

[09:10] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: just want to check, if you start normally (not from hibernate), does the sb or intel that work?
[09:10] <mkns> eyequeue - ok, I think I just need to go read something about the contents of a sources.list file as I'm somewhat confused
[09:10] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, what do you mean
[09:10] <FeestBijtje> bl3ssing, dint worked on sudo nether

[09:11] <zzy> nm guys
[09:11] <zzy> since know one wants to help me
[09:11] <eyequeue> mkns, no, on that line "main restricted" means main plus restricted  (it's a space-delimited list, you could change it to "main restricted universe multiverse" if you wanted)
[09:11] <finalbeta> I have to use sox (OSS) to capture/play sound from my TV card, but sometimes my card is in use and I actually have to reboot. How can I find what program is stiull using it, and release the device for sox?
[09:11] <ed_> Hexidigital_: VMware Server seems to be working fine. Thanks!
[09:11] <Hexidigital_> can anyone tell me how to undo replacing metacity? i did a metacity --replace (installing exposity)
[09:11] <bl3ssing> well, this is all I could do for your FeestBijtje. Everything's up to the KUBUNTU KING! :( Ask HIM!
[09:11] <eyequeue> mkns, a little clearer now?
[09:11] <mkns> eyequeue - so since I have that in my sources list, how come I can't install it using apt-get?
[09:11] <ompaul> bl3ssing, #kubuntu cos it aint a tjomlg jere
[09:11] <Hexidigital_> ed_: good to hear! :)
[09:12] <c|int> yes no , yes no?
[09:12] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: you did swap the sound cards right? now if you shutdown and then restart what happen ..is it the intel or sb that works?
[09:12] <bl3ssing> ompaul, can you english? :) kidding.
[09:12] <bl3ssing> ompaul, I didn't manage to install kubuntu 6. :(
[09:12] <eyequeue> mkns, that line you pasted was "dapper-updates" do you also have a line with restricted for just "dapper"?
[09:13] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, one is onboard and one is pci so how should i swap them.... if its with that tutorial... yes i did
[09:13] <bl3ssing> but I've already ordered the CD and I'll have it soon. :)
[09:13] <mkns> eyequeue - no, i most certainly don't and will therefore add one right now and try it again
[09:13] <c|int> hey ompaul. what command line, can I enter, to connect to wireless network
[09:13] <ompaul> bl3ssing, adept is kubuntu this is not kubuntu and for special stuff like that the #kubuntu channel may be better
[09:13] <ompaul> c|int, I don't do wireless
[09:13] <eyequeue> mkns, cool, then run sudo apt-get update (like after any sources.list change)  then the install command should work
[09:14] <bl3ssing> cool. But I have Ubuntu 5.10 here.
[09:14] <bl3ssing> :(
[09:14] <bl3ssing> ompaul,
[09:14] <Hexidigital_> hmmm... that was wierd... i entered the room 3 minutes after i entered the room
[09:14] <mkns> eyequeue - no, i lied, i do indeed have a line for dapper with main and restricted in it.  I'd already run apt-get update and that package really isn't in the repository
[09:14] <c|int> should I disconnect the lan, before I attempt to connect to the wireless network
[09:14] <gean> bye all, may the spirit of Ubuntu be with u !
[09:14] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: the tut is to "swap" the function of course...now is it the sb or the intel sound that you hearing? you said earlier about "yelling allow"
[09:14] <eyequeue> !info linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386

[09:14] <Hexidigital_> ok, updated question... anyone know how to FIX metacity, after doing a metacity --replace?
[09:14] <mkns> hold on - it is now
[09:15] <mkns> it wasn't there about 30 minutes ago
[09:15] <eyequeue> mkns, see that from ubotu?
[09:15] <mkns> i suspect it's just been uploaded
[09:15] <bl3ssing> Gean, may the Holly Spirit be with you! :) Stay blessed.
[09:15] <FusionXN1> Where can i download ALSA drivers
[09:15] <mkns> ubotu - yes, it's definitely there now
[09:15] <ubotu> I know nothing about yes, it's definitely there now - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:15] <bl3ssing> how to enter in kubuntu channel? /j #kubuntu?
[09:15] <ompaul> bl3ssing, what is with adept why not use synaptic
[09:15] <mkns> so unless I'm going mad... it's just been uploaded
[09:16] <gnomefreak> bl3ssing: yes
[09:16] <bl3ssing> done it.
[09:16] <bl3ssing> :)
[09:16] <eyequeue> mkns, also, always do an apt-get update before checking what's new :)
[09:16] <bl3ssing> heheheh
[09:16] <bl3ssing> thanks gnomefreak
[09:16] <gnomefreak> yw
[09:16] <bl3ssing> where could I get this synamptic/
[09:16] <bl3ssing> ompaul,
[09:16] <bl3ssing> ompaul, I don't find it ... :(
[09:16] <Hexidigital_> will reconfiguring xorg.conf redo metacity?
[09:16] <ompaul> !enter > bl3ssing
[09:16] <mkns> eyequeue - i do that regularly when attempting to get a new package... been using Debian for 6 years, Ubuntu for about 8 hours :)
[09:16] <coucho> can someone point me to a hardware help channel?
[09:16] <ompaul> bl3ssing, are you using ubuntu or kubuntu
[09:17] <eyequeue> bl3ssing, system > admin > synaptic
[09:17] <bl3ssing> ompaul, ubuntu 5.10
[09:17] <mkns> eyequeue - thx for your help
[09:17] <eyequeue> mkns, gotcha :)  welcome btw
[09:17] <ompaul> bl3ssing, so then as eyequeue said that would be useful
[09:17] <bl3ssing> eyequeue, I don't have any Admin->Synaptic.
[09:17] <bl3ssing> but system, I do. :)
[09:18] <stopher> hello everyone
[09:18] <eyequeue> bl3ssing, no System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager ?
[09:19] <in54no> how can i recovery a partition?
[09:19] <FusionXN1> my ALSA drivers dont work no more
[09:19] <mkns> in54no - depends what you've done to it
[09:19] <FusionXN1> how can i fix them
[09:19] <mkns> FusionXN1 - go back to Windows ;)
[09:19] <in54no> mkns, humm, i have started a installation of other distro, but i cancel, in moment of clean the partitions
[09:19] <in54no> sorry my english, im brazilian
[09:19] <FusionXN1> mkns - i want to use ubuntu its better in everyway but hardware wont work :(
[09:20] <eyequeue> !br
[09:20] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[09:20] <mkns> FusionXN1 - what's your hardware?
[09:20] <FusionXN1> mkns - X-FI soundcard i know wont work till next year so im using my onboard. My LOGITECH USB desktop mic dont work
[09:20] <mkns> in54no - so did you wipe the partition, or alter your partition table in any way?
[09:20] <FusionXN1> and my TV Tuner
[09:21] <mkns> back in a sec
[09:21] <in54no> humm, alter, to ext3...
[09:22] <stopher> Okay, On UBUNTU LAMP is it going to be a daunting task to install a phpbb or similar forum?
[09:22] <mkns> FusionXN1 - sorry, not had any dealings with mic's so probably not able to help
[09:22] <vains> hi there, I'm not so new to Ubuntu but kinda new to source code compiling. I bet it's just a matter of having the right 'includes' and modules and stuff, but such a bunch of compiling errors are displayed - and way too FAST! is there any means to, like, slow down the build output?
[09:23] <mkns> in54no - and did you then get it to start converting to ext3, or did you stop before that?
[09:23] <vains> so I can read what's missing... :|
[09:23] <in54no> mkns, stop before
[09:23] <FusionXN1> mkns - ok - i dont want to go back to windows i really hate it but it looks like my only option
[09:23] <mnp> good afternoon ubuntu!
[09:23] <noobthenewt> why is that? I'm a windows guru... but I'm learning ubuntu. what's yer prob?
[09:23] <mkns> FusionXN1 - XP is pretty good, you know, at many things, why do you hate it so much?
[09:23] <in54no> mkns, in fsck have erros, in mount command too
[09:23] <boabsta> FusionXN1: have you made sure its not just muted or something like that?
[09:24] <in54no> mkns, like:  Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...
[09:24] <FusionXN1> mkns, its unstable, defraggin every dam week. Security is low
[09:24] <mkns> in54no - so have you attempted to fix the errors?  and why would there be any errors if you had stopped *before* you'd altered the partition?
[09:24] <FusionXN1> boab skype and teamspeak says theres a problem with my mic
[09:24] <ompaul> FusionXN1, so double click on the icon on the top right hand side of the screen on the speaker and make sure the input devices are not muted
[09:24] <FusionXN1> and for some reason i have 2 sound cards listed
[09:24] <mkns> FusionXN1 - what Win OS are you using?
[09:24] <noobthenewt> oh, sound? my prob too!  SBLive card and PVR-416 card, can't get sound out of the tv, no matter what I tried
[09:24] <ompaul> FusionXN1, that icon is a speaker
[09:24] <mnp> what command will launch an application from the terminal itno a specific workspace?
[09:24] <FusionXN1> ompaul there not
[09:24] <in54no> mkns, the fsck show erros
[09:25] <mkns> so get fsck to fix them
[09:25] <ompaul> FusionXN1, you can't have two sound cards on the one box that I know of
[09:25] <facugaich> vains: try "<compiling command> | less", not sure it will work
[09:25] <mkns> ompaul - you can, i've had that before
[09:25] <noobthenewt> YES YOU CAN HAVE TWO SOUND CARDS DEFINITELY
[09:25] <vains> less... lol ok why not...
[09:25] <noobthenewt> you can have 3 or more even
[09:25] <noobthenewt> you've got to specifiy them in modules
[09:25] <ompaul> mkns, there was a time (a couple of releases ago when I caught by that
[09:25] <ompaul> !enter
[09:25] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[09:26] <FusionXN1> ompaul well i have INTEL HDA, Realtek ALC882 and my mic which is AK3587
[09:26] <noobthenewt> index=0, index=1, etc
[09:26] <FusionXN1> mic dont work and INTEL HDA no sound comes out
[09:26] <chol> vains, make | tee -a logfile
[09:26] <mkns> !co
[09:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about co - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:26] <drbreen_> hello
[09:26] <chol> vains, or make 2>&1 > logfile but then you won't see any output
[09:26] <mkns> d'oh - sorry, can't type
[09:27] <noobthenewt> fusion, do you want instructions?
[09:27] <FusionXN1> for what noob?
[09:27] <noobthenewt> your sound prob
[09:27] <zax123> Hi guys, I just d/led 6.06 Server and hit "Install to Hard Disk" when the CD booted and it gives me "Err=2, Invalid Compressed Format" when it tries to decompress the kernel.  Any ideas?
[09:27] <FusionXN1> If i can get it fixed
[09:27] <noobthenewt> well we won't know that until it's fixed, will we
[09:27] <FusionXN1> zax bad ISO?
[09:27] <drbreen_> my system thought it was tomorrow and i did sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org and everytime i try to use sudo i get "sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 29 20:48:00 2006"
[09:28] <FusionXN1> noob - erm... no
[09:28] <drbreen_> assuming i do not want to reboot, what now ?
[09:28] <vains> chol: well as long as the output goes somewhere, it's ok
[09:28] <zax123> There weren't any errors on download... came in smoothly on a 10megabit line...
[09:28] <noobthenewt> is it listed in lspci -vv ?
[09:28] <polpak> drbreen_: sudo -k
[09:28] <PenguinOfDoom> Is it possible to start a Ubuntu install from inside Windows? I don't care about the Windows installation, but I don't have a CD-R or a floppy drive handy.
[09:28] <zax123> But I guess I'll re-download and re-burn
[09:28] <FusionXN1> zax mine was but it wouldnt run at all so i redownloaded it and it was fine
[09:28] <neutrinomass> zax123: It could still be corrupt. Choose the 'check cd for defects' option to make sure ...
[09:28] <mkns> zax123 - does sound like a duff download, unfortunately.  have you checked the md5 checksum?
[09:29] <drbreen_> nils@ihopeyoustillrememberme:~$ sudo -k
[09:29] <drbreen_> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 29 20:48:00 2006
[09:29] <zax123> No, I didn't, I'll do that too.  Thanks guys...  it's weird that it still shows the menu no problem...
[09:29] <mathieu_> why would  a usb printer work with ubuntu kernel but not standard linux kernel with no configuration changes ?
[09:29] <neutrinomass> zax123: Try checking the md5sum of the downloaded file (it could be a media error) to avoid redownloading it ...
[09:29] <vortexvein> I'm having problems with my External Hard Drive. I try to reformat it as ext3 in ubuntu's disk manager and when it's done I can't write into it, it says I don't have permission.
[09:29] <drbreen_> polpak: what now ? what does this timestamp ?
[09:29] <mnp> i seem to have lost some options for shutdown in Gnome. anyone know why i can only hibernate?
[09:29] <noobthenewt> buRN ON 1X OR 2X ONLY, THE UBUNTU ISO!
[09:29] <mkns> PenguinOfDoom - you could use VMware and run ubuntu directly within windows instead?
[09:29] <FusionXN1> noob i did mine at 10x and it installed ok
[09:29] <FusionXN1> on a CD-RW
[09:29] <polpak> drbreen_:  it should clear your timestamp so you can sudo
[09:29] <noobthenewt> I did mine at 40 too, until the one day one cdrom wouldn't take it
[09:29] <drbreen_> polpak:
[09:30] <drbreen_> nils@ihopeyoustillrememberme:~$ sudo -k
[09:30] <drbreen_> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 29 20:48:00 2006
[09:30] <ompaul> noobthenewt, easy on the caps lock
[09:30] <drbreen_> it does not work
[09:30] <PenguinOfDoom> mkns: That is not my goal. I want to install Ubuntu on the real hardware.
[09:30] <mkns> vortexvein - did you mount it?
[09:30] <neutrinomass> noobthenewt: I burned mine at 52x and worked fine. Generally it's much more important that you don't scratch it ;)
[09:30] <noobthenewt> Generally, yes
[09:30] <Jack_Smirnoff> has anyone here used google earth linux version...
[09:30] <mkns> install it on the real hardware?  you mean on the hard drive?  it would be, just within Windiws
[09:30] <vortexvein> I don't think I did mkns, in order to access it, /media/usbdisk-1
[09:30] <mkns> but if you don't want to go there...
[09:31] <noobthenewt> anybody know CX8801 PVR-416 asus tvtuner   and SBLive problem? No sound, no matter what
[09:31] <mohkohn> This must be the problem: No Makefile file present in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-23-686/ - kqemu cannot be built
[09:32] <gatekeeper> Jack_Smirnoff: yes
[09:32] <Jack_Smirnoff> gatekeeper: having trouble with x.org
[09:32] <mkns> PenguinOfDoom - as far as I know, no, you can't start an install from Windows
[09:32] <Jack_Smirnoff> I had no problem last time and now cant figure it out
[09:33] <mkns> but if you live in Edinburgh, I'll burn a copy for you and hand deliver it ;)
[09:33] <Senesence> I installed python2.4 IDLE, but I can't seem to find it on my system, where is it? The executable I mean.
[09:33] <mkns> google earth has a linux version?  cool... let's give that a whirl
[09:33] <likwidtek_> wassssup!  day two running ubuntu and much fun!
[09:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> mkns: it works really well... well did before I trashed my system
[09:34] <gatekeeper> Jack_Smirnoff: I just installed on my Dell P3 test box which was running breezy at the time, it just went through the install script and started up
[09:34] <mkns> i'll shortly find out!
[09:34] <Senesence> Where does synaptic store newly installed application executables?
[09:34] <mkns> ah - beta version 4
[09:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> gatekeeper: how did you run the script?
[09:35] <likwidtek_> someone said that there is no 3d support for ATI 9600 mobility in linux is that true?
[09:35] <Jack_Smirnoff> gatekeeper: sorry for the brain fart, Mom wont last the week and I'm stressed
[09:35] <drbreen_> senesence: synaptic offers an option to see all files a package installs
[09:35] <dooglus> drbreen_: when you see that 'too far in the future' error, are you then prompted for a password?
[09:35] <recon0> if I'm using fluxbox, how am I supposed to change the volume?
[09:35] <No1Viking> Hello.... I installed Seveas solution regarding fglrx but still has OpenGL with software emulation instead of hardware. How do I solve this?
[09:35] <peg> recon0, same way as before
[09:35] <drbreen_> dooglus: no. that is my problem.
[09:36] <dooglus> drbreen_: ok.  I'll keep looking
[09:36] <drbreen_> dooglus: would a reboot fix up things ?
[09:36] <recon0> peg:I used to change it using the toolbar at the upper-right. is there a console commmand or...?
[09:36] <Senesence> drbreen_: I installed Python2.4 through IDLE, but I don't know where the executable is. So where do I go to start IDLE?
[09:36] <mathieu_> i'm trying to print but I am getting error:  cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found! in the cups error log
[09:36] <mkns> Jack_Smirnoff - it's of no help to you, but Google Earth works a treat for me...
[09:36] <peg> well clicking on the toolbar simply ran a program
[09:37] <dooglus> drbreen_: I don't think so.  what version (sudo -V) are you running?
[09:37] <mathieu_> everything worked ok until a kernel upgrade
[09:37] <dek_aik> drbreen: you can try open alt-F2..test it there
[09:37] <peg> you just need to figure out what the program is called
[09:37] <recon0> peg: and the program is....?
[09:37] <Jack_Smirnoff> mkns: I had it working yesterday..
[09:37] <Senesence> drbreen_: Through synaptic I mean
[09:37] <Jack_Smirnoff> reinstalling this am
[09:37] <gatekeeper> Jack_Smirnoff: it was a while ago, I think all I did was download it, change it so it was executable then ./whatver_the)name_was
[09:37] <Jack_Smirnoff> reinstalling everything this am
[09:37] <karl_> what package is the XTest library part of?
[09:37] <peg> recon0, well I do have one answer that you are looking for, a good terminal based volume changer is alsamixer
[09:37] <BankHead> ?
[09:38] <drbreen_> dooglus: Sudo version 1.6.8p12
[09:38] <likwidtek_> is there ATI 3d support in ubuntu?
[09:38] <Quino> ke pasa gente
[09:38] <gatekeeper> Jack_Smirnoff: good luck
[09:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> thanks
[09:38] <dooglus> drbreen_: you could fix it by setting the time even further into the future than before, then running "sudo -i" to get a root shell, "sudo -K", then update the time to the correct time in the root shell
[09:38] <Senesence> Got python2.4 IDLE through Synaptic, but where is the Python IDLE executable? How do I start IDLE?
[09:38] <recon0> any chance you know of a GUI based volume changer? the program executable, perhaps?
[09:38] <dooglus> drbreen_: but that's quite messy
[09:39] <drbreen_> dooglus: i cannot update the time without root right, i assume..
[09:39] <dek_aik> drbreen: sorry i mean ctrl-alt-F2...you can try login again
[09:39] <dek_aik> drbreen: youre OK
[09:39] <ompaul> Senesence, applications programming idle
[09:39] <drbreen_> senesence: i have a problem with synaptic right now cause i cannot sudo. try open a terminal and put in "apropos python
[09:39] <No1Viking> Hello.... I installed Seveas solution regarding fglrx ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI )but still has OpenGL with software emulation instead of hardware. How do I solve this?
[09:40] <Senesence> ompaul: Ahhh (stupid look on my face) of course, thank alot.
[09:40] <dooglus> drbreen_: oh, I see...  drbreen_ this is why I always set a root password, for such ubuntu foulups :)_
[09:40] <ompaul> Senesence,  /usr/bin/python
[09:40] <Poromenos> I can't access my Ubuntu server box by its hostname (IP works), is there any way I can make it broadcast it?
[09:40] <raboof> ok, strange problem: 'aplay -l' does find a playback device, but aplay and speaker-test give 'no such file or directory'
[09:41] <raboof> exact commands and outputs at http://www.bzzt.net/~arnouten/wiki/index.php/Sound_setup#alsa
[09:41] <faddat> I'm running prelink... I just removed some packages which caused the ubuntu-desktop metapackage to be removed.  Prelink has now been running for several hours and I'm wondering if something may have gone awry.... anyone got any ideas?
[09:41] <drbreen_> dooglus: it worked when i logged in again on virtuel console 6 and did sudo -v
[09:41] <raboof> any ideas what could be wrong? no answers in #alsa yet unfortunately
[09:41] <Senesence> ompaul: Yea I tried through usr/bin but it wouldn't let me open for some reason
[09:41] <likwidtek_> No1Viking, I think maybe we both are looking for the same answer.  Someone told me that there is no 3d ATI support in linux.
[09:41] <ompaul> Senesence, it should
[09:41] <ompaul> Senesence, just type python in a terminal
[09:41] <eyequeue> !ati > likwidtek
[09:42] <Seveas> likwidtek_, that someone is wrong, 3d works fine for me with ati 
[09:42] <likwidtek_> wrong name
[09:42] <No1Viking> likwidtek, I think you are wrong
[09:42] <likwidtek_> well i want to be wrong
[09:42] <Senesence> ompaul: there is a lock type of thing on many of my folders, maybe thats why?
[09:42] <Poromenos> Seveas: Was that a japanese character? :P
[09:42] <likwidtek_> because I want to get XGL working on my powerbook
[09:42] <eyequeue> !ati > likwidtek_
[09:42] <likwidtek_> I have 9600 mobility.  You think it will work?
[09:42] <lhds> guys to install and run tv i read ubuntu post about how to run a  saa7134 http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/materiel/saa7134 and i have downloaded the win4lin install and compile gtk things than it was said to type make to compile but i get an error similar to that in this post:http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=70359&highlight=video4linux+compile+error
[09:43] <ompaul> Senesence, if you run it from apps access terminal you won't have an issue
[09:43] <No1Viking> Seveas, any ideas why I get OpenGL with software using my Radeon 9800 Pro?
[09:43] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: are you still there?
[09:43] <ompaul> !ati > No1Viking
[09:43] <Senesence> ompaul: I would like to be able to run it through the GUI though, is there a way to unlock the folders?
[09:43] <lhds> ! video4linux
[09:43] <ubotu> I know nothing about video4linux - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:43] <MilesAttacca4> To set up a multi-boot system with Win98 and DOS, should I just install Ubuntu first and work from there?
[09:43] <move> I'm trying to use SSH for the first time, can I just use my username "move" and user password to login with it?
[09:43] <Seveas> No1Viking, because something is wrong on your system
[09:44] <Flannel> faddat: If something went wrong, it has nothing to o with ubuntu-desktop, it's just a meta package
[09:44] <Bonez56> peter.brown
[09:44] <Bonez56> PETER BROWN
[09:44] <Seveas> (give me 5 minutes and then pm me)
[09:44] <Flannel> move: right
[09:44] <ompaul> Senesence, name some of these folders for me
[09:44] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: usually it's easier to install non-linux first, as windows doesn't play well with others by default
[09:44] <faddat> flannel:  Ok.  Out of curiosity, what can go wrong.... and if something has blown up, how will I fix it after I reboot?
[09:44] <likwidtek_> brb
[09:44] <MilesAttacca4> Should I just use MS-DOS FDISK to partition?
[09:44] <move> Flannel: it tells me wrong username and password :(
[09:44] <Poromenos> I can't access my Ubuntu server box by its hostname (IP works), is there any way I can make it broadcast it?
[09:45] <MarcC> is there a "pygtk" package in the repos?
[09:45] <MarcC> I can't find one.
[09:45] <dooglus> drbreen_: I've tried setting my own timestamp to a date in the future and although I see the error you see, I then see a 'password' prompt.  that's what should happen.  I don't know why you see what you see
[09:45] <Senesence> ompaul: The lock icon is on the whole File System
[09:45] <karl_> anyone know how I can get the Xtest library?
[09:45] <ompaul> Senesence, sdont touch that for a mo
[09:45] <ompaul> Senesence, brb
[09:45] <Flannel> faddat: er, depends on whta went wrong.
[09:45] <Senesence> ompaul: k
[09:45] <Flannel> move: you're connecting to the same machine?
[09:46] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Would I just make the one primary partition for Windows and leave the rest of the space unspecified?
[09:46] <faddat> Flannel:  Indeed :(..... well, I hope it's nothing big.  It's 4AM where I am so I'm going to go to sleep soon and check on this madness in the morning
[09:46] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: yeah, linux has no problem flling in the cracks
[09:46] <faddat> hopefully.... nothing.... if not, it'll be an excuse to become an Edgy tester.....
[09:47] <move> Flannel: I'm connecting to my computer using the terminal program of my t-mobile sidekick II
[09:47] <Flannel> faddat: nah, worst case is you'll have to reinstall it via apt
[09:47] <ompaul> Senesence, what is the shaded in icon above the left hand column?
[09:47] <Morrowyn> when can we play games on linux?
[09:47] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: After that, should I just boot and start installling Ubuntu from the live CD?
[09:47] <Morrowyn> without cedega and such, just native
[09:47] <mkns> move - does your sidekick support the correct version of SSH that your server needs?
[09:47] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, i am still here
[09:47] <faddat> flannel:  nice :)!  Well, that's good news
[09:48] <move> how do I find that one out?
[09:48] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: Install windows, then install linux, yeah.
[09:48] <Senesence> ompaul: The little drive icon, I guess marking the file system
[09:48] <eddie> is there a program for gnome like yakuake is for kde?
[09:48] <Stormx2> how do I use unrar from terminal?
[09:48] <Fabiana23> ] [] [] [- www.misecretito.com.ar -] [] [] [ - contanos tus secretitos ms terribles !!
[09:48] <mkns> i have no idea about your sidekick; i've never even heard of it
[09:48] <mc__> Stormx2,  unrar x file.rar
[09:48] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: so how the sound ? did you figure out which one now..sb or intel?
[09:48] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: And then start mucking about with grub?
[09:48] <Flannel> eddie: what does yaka..whatever do?
[09:48] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: no, you shouldn't need to muck around, windows will automatically be detected and added
[09:48] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, none works now -_-
[09:49] <gnomefreak> ty
[09:49] <gnomefreak> i was gonna do that but wanted to see it first
[09:49] <likwidtek_> what does apt-get stand for?
[09:49] <ompaul> gnomefreak, yw
[09:49] <eddie> it hides a terminal at the top of the screen and becomes available when you hit the f12 key
[09:49] <gnomefreak> likwidtek_: apt-get =apt-get
[09:49] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Do I still have to install Linux second to be able to add other Windows OSes like DOS?
[09:49] <mkns> as for your server... 'dpkg -l openssh-server' should tell you the version of your server.  And if you're using Ubuntu, it'll be SSH2
[09:49] <ompaul> gnomefreak, spammer /dev/null - no questions
[09:49] <move> ahh
[09:49] <eyequeue> likwidtek_, A Package Tool
[09:49] <move> nvm
[09:49] <likwidtek_> like appointment get?
[09:49] <move> I got it working
[09:49] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: well sorry...have you try to modprobe the modules?
[09:49] <ompaul> Senesence, you do not want to be there writing data
[09:50] <likwidtek_> apartment get?  :P
[09:50] <gnomefreak> eyequeue: advaced packaging tool
[09:50] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, yes
[09:50] <mkns> move - what was wrong?
[09:50] <move> whenever I hit save fingerprint it wouldn't load, but just pressing okay for some reason let me go forth
[09:50] <likwidtek_> Awesome gnomefreak
[09:50] <likwidtek_> thanks
[09:50] <AndreasBe> i have a problem authenticating against my ldap server when using gdm. tty and ssh logins work like a charm. any clues?
[09:50] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: without mucking around in grub ;)  Linux only does the 'lets see what else is installed and autoconfigure' while installing
[09:50] <Senesence> ompaul: ok
[09:50] <eyequeue> likwidtek_, the get part was originally just to be the fetcher part, then it sort of took on all the other functions i guess
[09:50] <ompaul> Senesence, you want to click on your username
[09:50] <mkns> ok, fair enough
[09:50] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: ther are not on the lsmod|grep snd?
[09:50] <likwidtek_> cool
[09:50] <eyequeue> gnomefreak, i've heard both, but yours makes better sense, heh
[09:50] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, nope
[09:51] <likwidtek_> you know I am so in love with this distro.  I know its based on debian but they way its done is so smart
[09:51] <Jack_Smirnoff> !backup
[09:51] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi
[09:51] <ompaul> Senesence, you don't drop programs around the file system until you know exactly what your doing and then mostly you dont drop programs around the system, they have special places
[09:51] <likwidtek_> I love the packages too...  it's like... wandering through a free software mall and you get to pick whatecer you want
[09:51] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: well if you modprobe snd_emuXX for example what is the output?
[09:51] <move> should I have it emulating vt100 or linux
[09:51] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: I mean that Windows has problems with letting more than one of its versions exist on a computer at any one time.
[09:51] <ompaul> Senesence, create a folder in your "home directory" (where your user name is) and then work in that
[09:52] <ompaul> gnomefreak, is there a "directory" faq style thing?
[09:52] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: So would I have to install one Windows first, then Ubuntu, then the others to be able to use them?
[09:52] <stummies> does anyone know how to access an NTFS formatted USB drive in linux?
[09:52] <Senesence> ompaul: I see, so if I want to run any executables i should make a link to a executable in the file system and run that way, right?
[09:52] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, sudo modprobe snd_emu10k1 say's nothing
[09:52] <gnomefreak> ompaul: not that im aware of
[09:52] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: i mean, snd_emu10k1 and snd_intel8x0
[09:52] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: er, no, I dont see why that would need to be the case
[09:52] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, both say's nothing
[09:52] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: 'K. Time to dig out my Windows installs then.
[09:53] <likwidtek_> likwidtek@Ubuntu-Mac:~$ sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fg1rx
[09:53] <likwidtek_> Reading package lists... Done
[09:53] <likwidtek_> Building dependency tree... Done
[09:53] <likwidtek_> E: Couldn't find package xorg-driver-fg1rx
[09:53] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Thanks.
[09:53] <likwidtek_> what's wrong?
[09:53] <ompaul> Senesence, no, you need to learn more about permissions
[09:53] <ompaul> Senesence, this is nothing like windows
[09:53] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: what is the output of lsmod|grep snd? ---pm me there
[09:53] <DarkAudit> so what is the GNOME equivalent to digikam?
[09:53] <Senesence> ompaul: I see that now lol
[09:53] <mnp> i seem to have lost some options for shutdown in Gnome. anyone know why i can only hibernate?
[09:54] <mohkohn> Which version of qemu is in dapper?
[09:54] <ompaul> Senesence, look trust me on this - do all your work in your home directory for now
[09:54] <Senesence> ompaul: got it. Where can I learn more about the linux file system. Is there a document specific to longtime windows users?
[09:54] <ompaul> Senesence, as you learn more it will become obvious where to look, and look for Linux Filesystem Faq out there on the big bad internet - I don't have one to hand sorry
[09:55] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, done
[09:55] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: welll, there are there?...:)
[09:55] <Senesence> ompaul: OK thank's man.
[09:55] <gatekeeper> mohkohn: 0.8.0-3 I think
[09:55] <dribble> can nautilus burn bin/cues or just isos?
[09:55] <ompaul> Senesence, all I can say is this, almost everything you know is wrong (that is a very crude way of saying it) you need to be very open to changes
[09:55] <Senesence> ompaul: I'll try my best. Im sure it will be worth it.
[09:55] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, yes but why it aint working... i broke it ^^
[09:56] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, on live cd i have sound but not on my installed version
[09:56] <ompaul> Senesence, don't be sure, know ;-)
[09:56] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: how do you test the sound then? maybe the alsa-mixer is still mute
[09:57] <ompaul> Senesence, if you care to pm me or go to #ubuntu-classroom I will get you a few pointers
[09:57] <Rodya> how do i get apptitude running?
[09:57] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, alsamixer is not muted
[09:57] <Rodya> i installed breezy but the extra packages didnt install
[09:57] <Senesence> ompaul: Well I hope at least, thanks for all your help. Later.
[09:57] <Rodya> i did this yesterday and apptitude worked but today its not
[09:57] <Flannel> Rodya: to run aptitude, just "sudo aptitude", that'll start the GUI
[09:57] <blanky> what's the argument for wget that you tell it where to save the downloaded file?
[09:58] <likwidtek_> does anyone know how to tell if my ati driver is up to date and supports 3d?
[09:58] <eddie> FeestBijtje, do you have a usb audio device connected?
[09:58] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: well..i am lost..sorry friend
[09:58] <gatekeeper> ompaul: Windows to Ubuntu Transition Guide usefull for new people coming to linux:http://www.pcmech.com/show/os/917/
[09:58] <J-_> i tried to format my external hard drive with gparted, i put fat32 on a small partition, made another partition ext3. while it was making the ext3 partition, it stopped, and the hard drive went back to unallocated? is the hard drive perma fried now? =(
[09:58] <FeestBijtje> eddie, no its not USB
[09:59] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, ill re install my OS
[09:59] <nceterval> After a little testing I've determined that when loading an encrypted partition with device mapper on boot with Ubuntu Dapper, if an incorrect passphrase is entered it assumes corruption and drops me to a root console.  This is obviously an awful security flaw, how can I fix it?
[09:59] <ompaul> gatekeeper, I'll keep it in mind
[09:59] <Flannel> nceterval: report it at launchpad
[09:59] <eddie> FeestBijtje, do you have any usb audio devices like a headset?
[09:59] <FeestBijtje> eddie, no
[10:00] <FeestBijtje> eddie, i got a SB Live value card on PCI with refuses to work after an hybernate
[10:00] <Rodya> Flannel, its saying  it wasnt able to locate a file for the xm package  internal error couldnt generate list of packages to download
[10:00] <Rodya> should i reinstall just the base system and then use aptitude?
[10:00] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: well i walkthroughed two people with the same problem and with a success...must be something i missed
[10:00] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, mabe its cause this is been my worst day since yesterday....
[10:00] <dead_kelly> okay this should be a simple one. Flash. I want flash to work
[10:00] <Flannel> Rodya: sounds like you've got some problems, yeah.  try that
[10:00] <likwidtek_> how can i see what driver my ati card is running?
[10:00] <likwidtek_> !ati
[10:00] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:01] <nceterval> Flannel: I just checked, there is "security contact" or "bug contact" for Linux Kernel Device Mapper on Launchpad.net  Does that matter?
[10:01] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, no never mind i am drunk already cause of the absint... me and my gf broke up and now i am completely lost in my self
[10:01] <nceterval> *there is no
[10:01] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: I've got a 250GB drive, and FDISK seems to think it only has 25GB. So is there a way I can use Ubuntu from the live CD to partition everything without installing itself, then install Windows, then go back and install Ubuntu?
[10:01] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, i also lost my computer now :(
[10:01] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik,  still loads of peacis are in my head i broke a mirror with my fore head
[10:02] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: FDISK can't handle more than about 30GB as FAT, yeah, you can partition it however
[10:02] <dead_kelly> flash, anyone? Anyone? Can anyone please help?
[10:02] <jrib> dead_kelly: what about flash?
[10:02] <gnomefreak> !flash
[10:02] <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
[10:02] <FeestBijtje> dek_aik, can you tell me atleast what i can do more eccept bashing my self into walls
[10:02] <Flannel> nceterval: er, when reporting the bug there should be a checkbox about not making it public, or whatever.  Let me look.
[10:02] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Can I just do it as part of the install wizard, or is there a specific app included on the CD?
[10:02] <dek_aik> FeestBijtje: keep safe..wish you better luck then..others will help..its 3 am here..i need some sleep..bye
[10:02] <AndreasBe> i got a problem authenticating against an OpenLDAP server using the gdm login manager. tty and ssh authentication is fine. anyone able to help?
[10:02] <FeestBijtje> bye bye dek_aik thanx for the help
[10:02] <nceterval> Flannel: I apologize, I'm not at all familiar with Launchpad.
[10:03] <dead_kelly> gnomefreak I can't get flash working
[10:03] <likwidtek_> guys whats the command to see what drivers are loaded please?
[10:03] <dead_kelly> flash files won't load on teh intarwebs
[10:03] <Supermathie> Are there any patches for suspend2 out there that apply against Ubuntu 6.06?
[10:03] <move> the terminal client on my sidekick is light text on a white background, is that configurable from my computer or only from the sidekick?
[10:03] <Flannel> move: just the sidekick
[10:04] <jesspher> is there any program in linux that supports ipod
[10:04] <J-_> when i use gparted am i suppose to use the BSD option?
[10:04] <jesspher> please help
[10:05] <move> okay, one more question... is there a torrent console client?
[10:05] <eyequeue> jesspher, apt-cache search ipod?
[10:05] <Flannel> !tell jesspher about ipod
[10:05] <ubuntu> Hi every one.... I using the LIVE CD Ubuntu, V. 5,10, Whow is the password of root???
[10:05] <mc__> move, ctorrent
[10:05] <Flannel> move: yeah, btdownloadcurses
[10:05] <mc__> ubuntu, there is none
[10:05] <gatekeeper> dead_kelly: are you runing amd64?
[10:05] <ubuntu> No... Pc32
[10:06] <dead_kelly> gatekeeper running powerpc
[10:06] <ubuntu> "none", or it does not have passord?
[10:06] <Flannel> ubuntu: it has none.  it has no root account.
[10:06] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Can I just do it as part of the install wizard, or is there a specific app included on the CD?
[10:06] <mc__> ubuntu, it does not have a password
[10:06] <mc__> ubuntu, root account is disabled
[10:06] <mc__> ubuntu, you can enable the account with setting a password
[10:06] <Flannel> nceterval: When you go and report the bug, check the "this bug is a security vulnerability" checkbox at the bottom
[10:06] <mc__> ubuntu, sudo passwd root
[10:06] <Flannel> mc__: he shouldn't need to do that.
[10:07] <ubuntu> ok.... thank you MC!
[10:07] <mc__> Flannel, i like it to have a root account
[10:07] <Flannel> mc__: that's fine, don't recommend others do the same.
[10:07] <gatekeeper> dead_kelly: if you are running firefox: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[10:07] <mc__> ubuntu, you're welcome
[10:07] <ubuntu> I'm from brazil.... sorry about the english.
[10:07] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: gparted is the program you're looking for, otherwise you'll have to do it from the install
[10:07] <mc__> Flannel, i dont consider a root account as a security risk as long as you arent silly
[10:07] <nceterval> Flannel: Alright, I'll file a bug.  Thanks
[10:07] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Is there any particular advantage to doing it either way?
[10:07] <Flannel> mc__: right, but new users don't know how 'not to be silly'.
[10:08] <move> Flannel: can you do a command like btdownloadcurses http://the.com/torrent.torrent ?
[10:08] <Flannel> move: it's something like that, yeah
[10:08] <move> k
[10:08] <move> thx
[10:08] <Winball> k
[10:08] <jesspher> does anybody know how i can get the amarok package
[10:08] <dead_kelly> so can anyone help me here?
[10:09] <stummies> i need help accessing my NTFS formatted USB harddisk from linux
[10:09] <Flannel> mc__: besides, having a root account causes problems with some of the other configurations of ubuntu.
[10:09] <move> hmm, okay, one more question
[10:09] <move> knowing nothing but the url, how can you download a file from an http server using console?
[10:09] <move> is there a native command?
[10:09] <mc__> Flannel, not having a root account causes problems with some non-ubuntu scripts
[10:09] <Flannel> move: wget
[10:09] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Is there any particular advantage to doing it either way?
[10:09] <AndreasBe> move: wget
[10:09] <Winball> Someone have problemes with azureus? Try running it as root
[10:09] <eyequeue> move, sudo apt-get install wget
[10:10] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: not a huge advantage, no.  either way you'll get it partitioned
[10:10] <Flannel> move: wget is already installed
[10:10] <eyequeue> move, wget http://url.here/path/file
[10:10] <move> great
[10:10] <move> thanks a lot gus
[10:10] <move> guys
[10:10] <move> I go tit
[10:10] <move> now I can torrent from work using my sidekick!
[10:11] <Flannel> move: you should check out 'screen'
[10:11] <AndreasBe> does anyone have ldap authentication using gdm working? (i'm using ubuntu for both the clients and the server).
[10:11] <move> what is screen
[10:11] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Will the arrangement of the partitions be of any concern, namely the orientation of the Linux and swap partitions relative to the Windows installs?
[10:11] <mc__> move, a nice programm
[10:11] <eyequeue> move, if you're a console fan, i'll second that recommendation for screen(1)
[10:11] <mc__> move, install it and try it out
[10:11] <eyequeue> screen (1)           - screen manager with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
[10:11] <move> I type it and my console just flashes
[10:11] <Supermathie> screen is awesome.
[10:12] <Flannel> move: google it, the irssi website has a nice tutorial about it
[10:12] <dead_kelly> gah
[10:12] <Flannel> mc__: most new users don't need to run non-ubuntu scripts, and aren't savvy enough to weigh the differences between having root, and using sudo.  It's perfectly alright if you want to have a root account, but don't go telling everyone randomly to have one.
[10:12] <jesspher> does ubuntu 6.06 support  .rar files
[10:12] <eyequeue> move, screen has a billion features, don't get bogged down in the socs ... detaching/attaching is the big one, then i use it for cut/paste too, the rest are less common
[10:13] <tmccrary> Is allofmp3.com down for anyone else?
[10:13] <mathieu_> anyone have any idea why a usb printer would work with a ubuntu kernel but not a vanilla linux kernel ?
[10:13] <XiXaQ> jesspher, yes.
[10:13] <Supermathie> it lets you m:n multiplex terminals, so you can have a screen 'session' running an arbitrary number of programs and having an arbitrary number of frontends connected to it, viewing.
[10:13] <move> well how do I run it to play with it?
[10:13] <Flannel> move: it means you won't have to be connected for your programs (bittorrent in this case) to continue to run.
[10:13] <mathieu_> i'm getting :  cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!
[10:13] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Will the arrangement of the partitions be of any concern, namely the orientation of the Linux and swap partitions relative to the Windows installs?
[10:13] <jesspher> XiXaQ: thanks
[10:13] <mathieu_> but when running ubuntu kernel there is no problem
[10:13] <eyequeue> move, start with "pinfo screen" or "man screen"
[10:13] <move> pinfo screen
[10:13] <move> man screen
[10:13] <move> gotcha
[10:13] <move> thx
[10:13] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: I believe windows needs to be in a primary partition, but I'm not really sure.
[10:14] <mc__> Flannel, yes sir
[10:14] <Flannel> mc__: thanks
[10:14] <eyequeue> move, what you do is start a "terminal" inside screen, then run apps, then make more terminals if you want, etc
[10:14] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: Does Linux need to be in one as well?
[10:14] <Flannel> MilesAttacca4: no, windows is picky, linux will run anywhere.
[10:14] <dead_kelly> d00d my linuxes are teh suck!
[10:14] <XiXaQ> jesspher, uh.. wait a minute. I'm not sure it does out of the box.
[10:14] <move> I see, so when I disconnect from the ssh screen keeps the programs running?
[10:14] <tmccrary> Linux won't run on my Gigabyte i-Ram card :(
[10:14] <mathieu_> move: yes
[10:14] <Supermathie> move: Exactly!
[10:15] <AndreasBe> move: you could ylso choose to connect to one screen using several pc's at once.
[10:15] <eyequeue> linux ran in my bathroom, must run anywhere
[10:15] <Flannel> move: since otherwise, if your sidekick disconnected for whatever reason, the programs you had running would stop
[10:15] <Supermathie> for example, I have 20 different programs running under screen, and a screen session connected from my desktop here, my desktop at home, and my blackberry :)
[10:15] <dead_kelly> right so, is there a power pc chan?
[10:15] <APEX> has anyone here got 3ddesktop to work on a ppc mac?
[10:15] <move> I see
[10:15] <bigjb> tmccrary: run it under vmware
[10:15] <move> screen is awesome.
[10:15] <Supermathie> so I can view any of the programs from any device, detach and reattach at will
[10:15] <dead_kelly> apex I can't even get flah to work
[10:16] <APEX> hrrmm] 
[10:16] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: flash doesnt work on ppc
[10:16] <XiXaQ> jesspher, I'm sorry, I was wrong. Ubuntu does not support rar. It's easily installed though.
[10:16] <dead_kelly> gnomefreak reeely?
[10:16] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: you need gplflash (sometimes doesnt like to work)
[10:16] <APEX> I can get 3ddesktop to work - it will switch displays, but I dont see any animation
[10:16] <eyequeue> move, start irssi in console, get x working, detach, come back in x and reattach to that irssi, and no one on irc even knew you left, all /msgs saved, it's sweet
[10:16] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: really
[10:16] <gnomefreak> !flash > dead_kelly
[10:16] <Supermathie> move: type 'ctrl-a', '?' inside screen
[10:16] <greg> Ubuntu is a pretty slick distro!
[10:16] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: read the link in your pm
[10:16] <APEX> I spose is those durn ati ppc drivers
[10:16] <mathieu_> dead_kelly: it's cause the sources are not open for flash
[10:17] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: most non-free apps wont run on ppc
[10:17] <dead_kelly> gnomefreak where does one synaptyic gplflash ?
[10:17] <move> control a doesn't do anything...
[10:17] <MilesAttacca4> Flannel: 'K, I'm going to go to work installing Win98 and DOS on the box now. Thanks for the help.
[10:17] <XiXaQ> jesspher, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression#head-32ba956d13d49934f65bf67dd40646653a7a6140
[10:17] <gnomefreak> dead_kelly: read the link it will tell y ou how to install it
[10:17] <move> oh, I see
[10:17] <Flannel> move: also with screen you'll be able to have multiple terminals, so you can connect once, and then do many things, irssi in one, bittorrent in another, etc
[10:18] <move2> hmm
[10:18] <move2> okay, I'm in irssi in screen
[10:18] <dead_kelly> gnomefreak those links explain restricted formats they are not synaptic sources
[10:18] <move2> how do I open another program inside screen though?
[10:19] <Supermathie> move: commands start with ctrl-A, ones to start with are: screen (c), next (space), detach (d), switchtonum (the number)
[10:19] <move2> when I press control a it just says that there is no other window
[10:19] <eyequeue> move2, ^A^C for that second app, then ^A^A to toggle
[10:19] <tmccrary> Is there a tutorial on building the ubuntu kernel?
[10:19] <Supermathie> move: so hit ctrl-a, c to create a new one
[10:19] <move2> ahhh
[10:19] <move2> awesome!
[10:19] <Flannel> !tell tmccrary about kernel
[10:19] <Supermathie> move: from a random shell, use 'screen -x' to connect to it.
[10:19] <gatekeeper> !flash > gatekeeper
[10:19] <move> hmm
[10:19] <tmccrary> !tell me about kernel bitch
[10:19] <BuFF> im having a problem, i installed dapper on my old pc 128ram, 20GB, 800Mhz & i cant install dapper on more powerfull ibm r50e laptop, what's the problem ?
[10:19] <ubotu> I know nothing about kernel bitch - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:19] <move> and I closed the window, I'm still in it
[10:20] <eyequeue> move2, one other thing, "screen -x" or "screen -r" to get back from detaching, done as ^A^X
[10:20] <mohkohn> How can I compile kqemu into the ubuntu 0.8.0 qemu package?
[10:20] <PolterGeist> Hello
[10:21] <ardchoille> Someone should write a short screen how-to on the wiki :)
[10:21] <tmccrary> That tutorial says it's about Edgy Eft's kernel... is it not a simple process to build a dapper kernel....?
[10:21] <move> how do you totally kill a screen session?
[10:21] <eyequeue> move, example,. detach from machine A, go to machine B and logon, and then attach to that machine, even though you never had it on that machine in the first place
[10:21] <Flannel> move: close all the windows
[10:21] <eyequeue> move, "exit" at the terminal
[10:21] <ardchoille> move: when you exit all the prompts in screen, screen will terminate itself
[10:21] <dead_kelly> meh. in about 10 minutes I am going back to mac os x
[10:22] <eyequeue> move, there's a "kill" command too, but better to close things our properly :)
[10:22] <PolterGeist> i have no experience on Linux. I am trying to install Xubuntu 6.06 on a Intel Celeron 466Mhz, 128MB RAM with 800X600 monitor
[10:22] <andbelo> Is there a program that allow you to send fax using Dapper?
[10:22] <move> I'm getting it now
[10:22] <move> awesome.
[10:22] <dead_kelly> linux just isn't ready for the desktop
[10:22] <eyequeue> s/our/out/
[10:22] <ardchoille> eyequeue: the screen kill command (^a^\) has never worked for me
[10:23] <PolterGeist> i changed the resolution on 800X600 but can't see full screen, anyone can help ?
[10:23] <Bakemono> hi
[10:23] <Supermathie> ardchoille: you want to kill a single screen? ^aK
[10:23] <PolterGeist> pls pm
[10:23] <eyequeue> ardchoille, try ^A^K
[10:23] <Bonez56> he
[10:23] <Bonez56> PETER BROWN
[10:23] <edulix> hi !
[10:23] <ardchoille> eyequeue: Ahh, I'll have to try that later, thanks
[10:23] <_X_> Does anyone know how I can hear sounds from multiple programs/sources at once?
[10:23] <_X_> In dapper :)
[10:23] <eyequeue> ardchoille, ^A^k too
[10:24] <edulix> I have an old ati which is only supported in ati drivers and in the propietary ones
[10:24] <Bonez56> _X_: i'd also like to know this
[10:24] <_X_> For instance amarok and gaim notification sounds at the same time
[10:24] <Supermathie> ^aK, not ^k
[10:24] <ardchoille> Supermathie: Thank you :)
[10:24] <edulix> it's a readeon 7500 IO belive
[10:24] <Jack_Smirnoff> Weeeeeeeee just did full system restore from my tar backup... Really had my fingers crossed for this one.. Thanks all
[10:24] <edulix> how can i configure tv out?
[10:24] <edulix> it doesn't work out of the box :P
[10:24] <likwidtek_> can someone please help me with this error?  E: Couldn't find package xorg-driver-fg1rx
[10:24] <Supermathie> remember - ^A? gives most commands
[10:24] <Bonez56> _X_: actually now to think of it mine works fine? Gaim always makes sounds while I am watching movies with mplayer
[10:24] <move2> and now I'm ircing from my sidekick
[10:24] <_X_> Bonez56, good for you :P
[10:24] <Flannel> likwidtek_: it's an l, frlrx not a 1
[10:24] <move2> weird
[10:24] <n08l3_Jatt> how to change distro from 5.10 to 6.06
[10:24] <Jack_Smirnoff> _X_: alsa
[10:24] <Flannel> !tell n08l3_Jatt about upgrade
[10:25] <Jack_Smirnoff> !upgrade
[10:25] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[10:25] <Bonez56> likwidtek_: sudo apt-cache search xorg-driver and then find the one you want and install it
[10:25] <zaudragon> weee Ubuntu is wicked; thanks guys
[10:25] <_X_> If I run amarok the gaim sounds will cue up and spam me once a playlist has finished
[10:25] <likwidtek_> E: Couldn't find package xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:25] <Bonez56> lol
[10:25] <move2> thanks a lot guys... gotta goto work
[10:25] <_X_> cant run multiple vlc clients either
[10:25] <move2> later
[10:25] <Bonez56> likwidtek_: read my text again
[10:25] <likwidtek_> Bonez56,  k ill try it thanks
[10:25] <n08l3_Jatt> Flannel: Thnkx
[10:25] <_X_> Jack_Smirnoff, for some reason alsa doesnt seem to do much good
[10:25] <eyequeue> move, while at it, i'll also mention ^A^[ and ^A^]  are my friends too :)  (cut/paste)
[10:26] <move> eyequeue: great, thx
[10:26] <Jack_Smirnoff> edulix: xorg-driver-fglrx  is what I think is needed for 8500 and lower cards
[10:26] <Supermathie> screenusers: The thing that messes people up initally is you can't just scrollback as you did before - ^A<ESC> puts you into scrollback mode. Use VI keys to move around.
[10:26] <_X_> I shalt brb abtwats,,,
[10:26] <eyequeue> move, always noce to give someone a new software toy, knowing there will be no productivity at the office for a week, lol
[10:26] <move> haha
[10:27] <ardchoille> eyequeue: hahaha
[10:27] <likwidtek_> Bonez56, so sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-driver-ati  ?
[10:27] <eyequeue> the console apps are just so powerful, i love them
[10:28] <skooj> hello.. uh.. I have a problem making my microphone work.. I want it mostly for skype, but I can't get it to work with anything. anyone have any idea how to fix it?
[10:28] <J-_> is there another program any better than gparted? or a tutorial to format my external hard drive into ext3 or fast32?
[10:28] <J-_> fast32*
[10:28] <J-_> -s
[10:28] <J-_> err
[10:28] <edulix> Jack_Smirnoff: fglrx does not support my card
[10:28] <ardchoille> I love Ubuntu. It's good for newbies, yet still powerful enough for those of us who like to log in without X and do everything in screen.
[10:28] <edulix> anyway thanks
[10:28] <Supermathie> ... or log into X and do everything in screen :)
[10:28] <edulix> I must go bye!
[10:28] <ardchoille> Supermathie: hehe
[10:29] <Malachi> Can I edit cookies in Epiphany?
[10:29] <likwidtek_> Bonez56, you still there?
[10:29] <J-_> is there another program any better than gparted? or a tutorial to format my external hard drive into ext3 or fat32?
[10:29] <Bonez56> likwidtek_: yeah
[10:30] <likwidtek_> Bonez56, so sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-driver-ati  right?
[10:30] <Jack_Smirnoff> !ati
[10:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:30] <J-_> =\
[10:30] <Bonez56> likwidtek_: follow ubotu's instruction

[10:32] <skooj> lol Supermathie, mic volume is up.
[10:32] <Supermathie> That usually does it for me :)
[10:32] <Supermathie> Although earlier I had to take it off mute...
[10:32] <johlin> My friends has got a Ralink RT2500, but the drivers for that are source code and because he hasn't got internet connection on that computer yet because of that, he can't apt-get install build-essential. What should he do?
[10:33] <skooj> i think it's my soundcard.. or something.. mic volume is all the way up, as is capture and everything but like.. i stilll get nothing
[10:33] <davey_> johlin, you can get the drivers from the website and just untar them
[10:33] <davey_> johlin, thats only if you are not on amd64
[10:33] <johlin> davey_: he's not on amd64. what site, ralinks official?
[10:33] <davey_> johlin, yes under the support tab
[10:34] <johlin> davey_ I can only find source code ones there. Or are the drivers included in that package?
[10:34] <Zooliegsm> hello all...i downloaded LiVES the video editing tool,and if i click to run it will do nothing.my cpu at load.and nothing.in terminal i dont got any errors.....pls help.....or any good video editing tool?
[10:35] <davey_> johlin, they have a totorial on ubuntu forms if the instructions in the source tar ball are kind of hard to understnad
[10:35] <Spec> Zooliegsm: yes, yes there are...
[10:35] <Spec> Zooliegsm: but for the life of me i can't remember what they are
[10:35] <X|Rolando> I have 2 videolan clients playing the same file and I only get sound from one (both are set to use alsa)
[10:35] <davey_> can anyone send me some gdesklet widgets, the main website i down and I wanted to have a few and the only website that is up only has like 10 that are lame
[10:35] <X|Rolando> Is there a magical package I need to install?
[10:35] <skooj> meh, maybe if i update alsa my microphone will record..
[10:35] <davey_> They are no where to be found anymore
[10:36] <Flannel> davey_: ubuntu comes with a bunch
[10:36] <davey_> Flannel, it doesn't have that main
[10:36] <Flannel> davey_: what?
[10:36] <davey_> Flannel, I just wanted a calculator that I had on another machine and the site with most of them is down
[10:36] <dealahog> skooj did you install alsa-oss ?
[10:36] <rtux> How can I blacklist modules on startup in ubuntu?? please?/
[10:36] <Flannel> davey_: apt-get install gdesklets (it's in universe)
[10:37] <skooj> dealahog err.. no?
[10:37] <cowbud> I just got the sl-modem driver to work and now when I try to connect it dials but it doesn't give me a connection. When I dial the connect per hand I here the correct noise though..any ideas why that is?
[10:37] <eyequeue> !blacklist
[10:37] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list
[10:37] <X|Rolando> !alsa
[10:37] <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
[10:37] <Zooliegsm> Spec and any solution for my problem?
[10:37] <davey_> Flannel, I have the program
[10:37] <dealahog> I use a lot of voice programs I always install alsa-oss and aumix
[10:37] <Supermathie> !suspend2
[10:37] <rtux> ubotu.. that doesn't work.. I tried it.

[10:37] <hussam> anyone can help get cdrecord to work as non-root?
[10:37] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubotu.. that doesn't work.. I tried it. - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:37] <likwidtek_> Bonez56, ok could you take a look at this?  Thanks for your help.  http://pastebin.ca/104332

[10:37] <Zooliegsm> nothing
[10:38] <johlin> davey_: do you have a link to a guide?
[10:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> rellik: what type of hard drive(s)\
[10:38] <rellik> davey_:  I accidentally downloaded and installed Ubuntu alternate successfully though
[10:38] <X|Rolando> multimedia? there is no multimedia thingy in dapper
[10:38] <skooj> err there is no "multimedia" in system > prefrences..
[10:38] <rellik> and it had a previously working windows install on it
[10:38] <rellik> its an older hard drive
[10:38] <davey_> johlin, I lost the guide
[10:38] <rellik> 3.2 gig maxtor
[10:38] <Zooliegsm> so? any good video editor name?
[10:39] <johlin> davey_ I found one in the wiki
[10:39] <X|Rolando> pitivi
[10:39] <s33k3rgr> does anybody knows anythink about dvb cardsharing client programs?
[10:39] <rtux> !modules
[10:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about modules - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:39] <Jack_Smirnoff> rellik: you need 2 gig for the swap
[10:39] <rtux> !modprobe
[10:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about modprobe - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:39] <X|Rolando> Zooliegsm, pitivi, its not quite finished yet though :P
[10:39] <likwidtek_> Zooliegsm,  Kino?
[10:39] <davey_> I checked for gdesklets I have all the ones that ubuntu comes with, does anyone have any they can send me
[10:39] <Spec> !info kino
[10:39] <ubotu> kino: Non-linear editor for Digital Video data. In repository main, is extra. Version 0.80-1ubuntu7 (dapper), package size 1071 kB, installed size 3616 kB
[10:39] <s33k3rgr> does anybody knows anythink about dvb cardsharing client programs?
[10:39] <davey_> modprobe is easy to use, you just need to know the name of the mod
[10:39] <rellik> install said i needed 2 gig for / and 192mb for swap
[10:39] <Spec> Zooliegsm: that's what i was thinking, kino
[10:39] <rtux> insmod does not insert the module.. It says "no name or directory".
[10:40] <davey_> rtux, you have to modprobe first
[10:40] <sarra_> I need to navigate to /home/sarra/Desktop/downloads using console, but cd /home && cd /sarra gives error: Directory sarra not found
[10:40] <rtux> davey_ modprobe ?? modulename?
[10:40] <rellik> cd /home/sarra
[10:40] <davey_> rtux, its been a while but it looks something like modprobe $(name)
[10:40] <Flannel> sarra_: /sarry is from the root.  you just want "cd /home" "cd sarra"
[10:40] <gbdm> How can I donwload ndisgtk and all it's depedencies in one shot?
[10:40] <davey_> rtux, and ofcorse you need to use sudo
[10:40] <sarra_> rellik: that results in the same error
[10:41] <rtux> davey_ sure.. I do use sudo, and even root!
[10:41] <likwidtek_> Bonez56, or anyone?  could you take a look at this?  I'm trying to get 3d support out of my ATI driver but the driver doesn't seem to load.  Here is the output  http://pastebin.ca/104332
[10:41] <Flannel> sarra_: you're as sarra?
[10:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> rellik: did you delete the windows partition?\
[10:41] <Flannel> sarra_: er, logged in as sarra?
[10:41] <sarra_> Yes
[10:41] <Flannel> sarra_: cd ~/Desktop/downloads
[10:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> did you get google earth running?
[10:41] <PolterGeist> i have no experience on Linux. I am trying to install Xubuntu 6.06 on a Intel Celeron 466Mhz, 128MB RAM with 800X600 monitor
[10:41] <PingunZ> Hikaru79, how can I use the modified /boot/config-* ?

[10:41] <idefix_> Jack_Smirnoff google earth! how do you get it running
[10:41] <idefix_> ?
[10:41] <PingunZ> how can I use the modified /boot/config-* ?

[10:42] <Jack_Smirnoff> idefix_: Linux version?
[10:42] <rellik> Jack_Smirnoff: and fdisk /dev/hda resulted in an error
[10:42] <idefix_> yes
[10:42] <Flannel> PolterGeist: get the Xubuntu alternate CD, and install it that way.  Probably you're best bet.
[10:42] <Jack_Smirnoff> rellik: ?
[10:42] <rellik> "unable to open /dev/hda
[10:42] <rellik> "
[10:43] <X|Rolando> Zooliegsm, pitivi uses gstreamer and should thus be able to handle almost any media format
[10:43] <Supermathie> fdisk -l /dev/sda (that's an ell)
[10:43] <idefix_> Jack_Smirnoff download from the repos, gunzip everything and run the executable?
[10:43] <X|Rolando> likwidtek, have you enabled all the repositories?
[10:43] <Zooliegsm> X|Rolando i checked it...on shots i cant see timeline......
[10:43] <Jack_Smirnoff> idefix_: single bin file
[10:43] <Jack_Smirnoff> sarra just finished the install
[10:44] <likwidtek_> X|Rolando, I enabled univers I think... is there anything in particular I need to enable?
[10:44] <PolterGeist> Flannel: I downloaded Xubuntu image and running it from there, it is also freeze on some points...now it is froze at step 5/6 (partition)
[10:44] <idefix_> sarra_  did you get google earth running?
[10:44] <rellik> the disk utility in system-> admin -> disks sees it as a 3.2 gig drive but its status is "inaccessable"
[10:44] <X|Rolando> Zooliegsm, bookmark the page, it should have a timeline soon enough :)=
[10:44] <gbdm> How can I donwload ndisgtk and all it's depedencies in one shot from windows to port to Ubuntu?
[10:44] <zaudragon> hey, I can't use sudo; how can I get it back?
[10:44] <Zooliegsm> :D kk
[10:45] <X|Rolando> likwidtek, I suggest you enable all the binary repositories (and disable all source repositories, if you want to speed things up a tad)
[10:45] <sarra_> idefix: I have Google Earth running in Windows
[10:45] <rellik> when i'm running the liveCD should the disk show up in /etc/fstab?
[10:45] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Do you have any idea of how yu lost sudo?
[10:45] <Zooliegsm> any solution for "why lives not running" issue? :D
[10:45] <sarra_> idefix: I also think you've got me confused withs omeone else. :)
[10:45] <zaudragon> ardchoille: nope, not really
[10:45] <zaudragon> I ran Synaptic, installed XMMS
[10:45] <synic> zaudragon: best explain what you mean by "not working"
[10:45] <TheMoebius> hey In evolution images in emails are blocked by default I think, but unlike thunderbird there's no option to show them. What am I missing?
[10:46] <zaudragon> synic: I run sudo ____ and it returns nothing
[10:46] <synic> zaudragon: you get no password prompt?
[10:46] <zaudragon> synic: I do
[10:46] <ardchoille> zaudragon: If you had no sudo rights, it would say so
[10:46] <synic> then what?
[10:46] <zaudragon> nothing
[10:46] <synic> what command are you running?
[10:46] <zaudragon> back to the prompt
[10:46] <ardchoille> zaudragon: The command you used may not have returned anything
[10:46] <zaudragon> "sudo echo hello"
[10:46] <InterNut> anyone know why i get a wierd pic (http://internut.no-ip.org/webcam/) when using webcamd but when im trying camorama it works?
[10:47] <zaudragon> echo definitely returns something
[10:47] <likwidtek_> X|Rolando,  i have ubuntu 6.06 LTS ; lts security; lts updates; (all binary) and get automatix
[10:47] <likwidtek_> is that what I need to download the ati driver?
[10:47] <synic> zaudragon: try sudo ls
[10:48] <Flannel> likwidtek_, X|Rolando: don't use automatix.
[10:48] <zaudragon> synic: nothing
[10:48] <synic> zaudragon: it hangs or you just get the command prompt again?
[10:48] <zaudragon> synic: I just get the prompt
[10:48] <ardchoille> zaudragon: try  sudo ls -lha /root
[10:48] <X|Rolando> likwidtek, give synaptic a try
[10:48] <synic> zaudragon: try reset; sudo ls /
[10:49] <zaudragon> synic: ardchoille both fail
[10:49] <lampshade> what happens if you don't have SMP and you install an SMP kernel?  I've noticed that in the repos, there is a linux-image 686 for smp, and one for without smp, but the one without smp is of an older version?  the one with smp is 2.6.15-26 where the other is 2.6.15-24?
[10:49] <X|Rolando> Flannel, don't scare the living crap out of him will you? :P
[10:49] <lampshade> I have a Pentium-M  (laptop)
[10:49] <synic> lampshade: it should work fine
[10:49] <synic> lampshade: I'd stick with the non-smp one
[10:50] <synic> it's not actually older, it just hasn't been revised as much
[10:50] <skooj> err... can someone help me get my microphone working? it has nothing to do with mic volume as i've tried that. and i just installed oss support and that doesnt seem to work either..
[10:50] <lampshade> any particular reason?  That's what I've done in the past I think.
[10:50] <lampshade> ahh
[10:50] <Flannel> lampshade: SMP kernels on non SMP machines don't really cause a problem.
[10:50] <lampshade> cool thanks
[10:50] <Flannel> lampshade: are you still on breezy?
[10:50] <lampshade> no, dapper
[10:50] <likwidtek_> brb
[10:50] <Flannel> lampshade: hmm, odd.  They did away with the differentiation between SMP and non-SMP in Dapper
[10:51] <lampshade> should I be searching for something other than linux
[10:51] <lampshade> linux-image
[10:51] <gbdm> How can I donwload ndisgtk and all it's depedencies in one shot from windows to port to Ubuntu?
[10:51] <lampshade> I see ones that say SMP/UP  not and one without the SMP/UP on the end of its description
[10:51] <lampshade> is that what you see in your repos?
[10:52] <Flannel> lampshade: I'm running breezy still, is it the kernels themselves? or just the meta packages?
[10:52] <zaudragon> synic: ardchoille: I think I might be stuck :(
[10:52] <Flannel> eh, I can just look.
[10:52] <lampshade> could just be a meta package
[10:52] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Can you "su"?
[10:52] <lampshade> how would I be able to tell the diff?
[10:52] <zaudragon> ardchoille: tried that, it says I fail
[10:53] <ardchoille> zaudragon: uh oh
[10:53] <zaudragon> su: Authentication failure
[10:53] <Flannel> lampshade: ah, looks like it's just a few images, PPC and power3
[10:53] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Is this the user that always had sudo rights?
[10:53] <zaudragon> ardchoille: it was the first user made, yes
[10:53] <Valehru_Airport> Hey guys..Through gftpprod I set up a user for my ftp.  I also set up SSH however I don't want any users other than root to have SSH access...how can I edit the users that can log onto SSH via the console?
[10:53] <zaudragon> ardchoille: and there aren't more users
[10:54] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Have you got a LiveCD you can use?
[10:54] <zaudragon> ardchoille: yeah
[10:54] <Phoul> anyone else having issues with Seavas's server?
[10:54] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Then you should be able to mount the hdd, use the livecd and change the sudoers file to get it back
[10:54] <zaudragon> ardchoille: gotcha
[10:55] <X|Rolando> does anyone know where I can find asound.conf?
[10:55] <zaudragon> ardchoille: is it in /etc?
[10:55] <X|Rolando> cant find it
[10:55] <X|Rolando> in /etc
[10:55] <lampshade> so what do you guys think?  "Linux kernel image for version 2.6.15 on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/PIV SMP/UP" or just the plain "Linux kernel image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/PIV."  that has a lower revision number?
[10:55] <stopher> i know this command is not right but: updated $$ locate asound.conf ?
[10:55] <stopher> thanks
[10:55] <stopher> i know this command is not right but: updated && locate asound.conf ?
[10:55] <lampshade> I'm confused....
[10:56] <soundray> X|Rolando: there is no asound.conf, only an asound.state
[10:56] <ardchoille> zaudragon: yes, /etc/sudoers -r--r----- 1 root root 403 2006-06-13 05:06 /etc/sudoers
[10:56] <Flannel> lampshade: ah.  the old was is 2.6.12? (non SMP?)
[10:56] <rellik> YAHTZEE!  i rebooted and it works?
[10:56] <rellik> don't know why i didn't do that in the first place
[10:56] <X|Rolando> strange...
[10:56] <zaudragon> ardchoille: thanks
[10:56] <ardchoille> zaudragon: You're welcome :)
[10:56] <X|Rolando> I'm trying to get multiple sounds to work in dapper, but I'm not sure how to
[10:56] <X|Rolando> one older guide is suggesting that I change some alsa thingy from hw to dmix
[10:57] <lampshade> do a quick search for linux-image in synpatic or apt-cache and you'll see what I mean.  there are two 686 images, but the one that doesn't mention SMP seems to have an older revision number(just slight, not major) but this confuses me
[10:57] <onikos> hello, is "build essential" made up of gcc and make, only?
[10:57] <ardchoille> zaudragon: I am wondering if your user was somehow taken out of the admi group or whether it was just the sudoers file that changed.
[10:57] <ardchoille> *admin
[10:57] <Jack_Smirnoff> If you follow the wiki about restoring a backup from a tar image and you are running live will that write to the hard drive or the ramdrive that the live is using?
[10:58] <FusionXN1> Does anyone know why my 2nd harddrive is not showing under computer
[10:58] <MrDumbom> Hi, im a newbe on Ubuntu and i will get my Ralink 2500 connect to internet. I run a ad-hoc network here
[10:58] <Flannel> lampshade: whats the older version number?
[10:58] <soundray> FusionXN1: what kind of harddrive is it?
[10:59] <Jack_Smirnoff> FusionXN1: what is the format on that drive
[11:00] <J-_> i can't write to the sda partition table. it says cylinders are set to 36481. and i thought formatting a external hard drive was easy....
[11:00] <lampshade> 2.6.15.24 vs the SMP kernel of 2.6.15-26.45
[11:00] <Flannel> lampshade: which arch is this for?
[11:01] <soundray> onikos: build-essential depends on gcc, g++, make and dpkg-dev
[11:01] <ardchoille> uname -a returns: "Linux home-desktop 2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT", is that a special type of kernel?
[11:01] <FusionXN1> sound SATA
[11:01] <FusionXN1> jack - EXT3
[11:02] <soundray> no, ardchoille, on my stock kernel, uname reports similarly
[11:02] <ardchoille> soundray: ok, thanks
[11:02] <lampshade> Flannel: dapper
[11:02] <Flannel> lampshade: right, which arch? 386? 686? ppc?
[11:02] <soundray> FusionXN1: have you got any other operating systems?
[11:02] <FusionXN1> sound no
[11:03] <J-_> there is a guide i can use to format my hard drive to  ext3?
[11:03] <Flannel> J-_: just run gparted, and format it.
[11:03] <lampshade> oh sorry, 686 both of them sorry.  I have a 686 machine (Pentium M) which is running a 386 kernel right now.  both those versions I gave you a few lines ago are for the 686 kernels
[11:03] <soundray> J-_: gksudo gparted
[11:03] <bauerbob> hi
[11:04] <soundray> FusionXN1: is your first drive SATA, too?
[11:04] <TheMoebius> how do I set when application I want opening movies when i double click on it?
[11:04] <Flannel> lampshade: that's odd.  Dapper doesn't have -smp kernels, they're just all SMP.
[11:05] <FusionXN1> sound all 3 - the other 2 show
[11:05] <bauerbob> can s.o. explain me the boot process of the ubuntu cd? when is /casper/filesystem.squashfs being mounted? what about initrd?
[11:05] <johlin> All the guides on the rt2500 that I find include apt-getting gcc but that's hard to do without any internet connection. Is there a simpler way to get the card to work? It does activate for my friend but pinging google for example just says unknown host
[11:05] <lampshade> maybe that's it, maybe that's what I'm missing, that no matter which of these I choose in the background it will install the other packages anyway.  That's what I'm thinking
[11:05] <Zooliegsm> ok,back again....any good movie editor with mp3 support????
[11:05] <Valehru_Airport> Hey, does anyone know a way I can view the status of torrents from the console if the azureus gui is already running?
[11:05] <lampshade> that one is a metapackage of the other or something
[11:05] <soundray> FusionXN1: are they all connected to the same controller?
[11:06] <FusionXN1> sound ya
[11:06] <lampshade> well thanks for the help, I'm gonna go install that kernel now.  bbl
[11:06] <FusionXN1> i just formatted it and i can get to it via /media/sdc1
[11:06] <FusionXN1> but its not in the computer
[11:06] <Oak3> hi, after changing my mac address with maccanger o ifconfig ping returns destination host unreachable. what could be the problem?
[11:07] <Raito> Is it normal to have no music with wine games? What packages might I need?
[11:07] <bauerbob> perhaps s.o. knows the full kernel parameter list i need to use for booting the ubuntu cd manually ...?
[11:07] <soundray> FusionXN1: have you restarted nautilus since you mounted it?
[11:07] <J-_> how long will it take to format the ext. hard drive?(300gb)
[11:07] <Zooliegsm> ok,back again....any good movie editor with mp3 support????
[11:07] <FusionXN1> sound - i have restarted the operating system...
[11:08] <FusionXN1> Ill restart again ina  sec
[11:08] <bauerbob> J-_: creating a new filesystem? about a minute, i guess
[11:08] <micahcowan> Raito: a better place to ask that might be #winehq. Your answer probably depends on the game you're trying to run.
[11:08] <Raito> oh, thanks
[11:09] <FusionXN1> sound "nautilus" how do i retsart it
[11:09] <J-_> i jsut hope all this fooling around on the hdd  doesn't damage the disk.
[11:09] <Zajin> Does anyone know why I can't mute mplayer when pressing 'm'? The man says it's possible. Every other distributions provided mplayer mutes itself then.
[11:09] <zaudragon> ardchoille: well, I have sudo access now
[11:09] <soundray> FusionXN1: 'killall nautilus'
[11:10] <FusionXN1> What will it do?
[11:10] <bauerbob> fooling around? what do you think ubuntu can do to your hard disk? send out some spider droids to infiltrate it???
[11:10] <zaudragon> looks like I wasn't in the admin group, ardchoille
[11:10] <J-_> who knows
[11:10] <ardchoille> zaudragon: W00T! Glad you got it back :)
[11:10] <mkns> arghh!  spider droids!!!
[11:10] <FusionXN1> Ok sound - still not working
[11:10] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Yeah, that was one of my suspicions
[11:10] <zaudragon> ardchoille: thanks to you ;)
[11:11] <ardchoille> zaudragon: Happy to help :)
[11:11] <zaudragon> it doesn
[11:11] <zaudragon> 't make sense though; you shouldn't be able to edit the sudoers file and remove yourself via sudo ;)
[11:11] <ardchoille> zaudragon: root can do anything
[11:11] <skooj> err... can someone help me get my microphone working? it has nothing to do with mic volume as i've tried that. and i just installed oss support and that doesnt seem to work either.. I can hear fine, I just can't seem to speak..
[11:12] <gregg__> zaudragon: sudo rm -rf / is also possible :)
[11:12] <seeker__> ardchoille: hi there fat albert :)
[11:12] <zaudragon> gregg__: good thing I have nothing on this less-than-a-day-old system
[11:12] <ardchoille> seeker__: ?
[11:12] <mkns> arghh!  rm -fr /!!!
[11:12] <soundray> FusionXN1: can you see your harddrive if you navigate to it in Nautilus with Go-Location and enter computer:///media/sdc1/
[11:12] <zaudragon> mkns: alphabetical order?
[11:12] <FusionXN1> sound yes
[11:12] <keito> have anyone heard of problems with ubuntu on a MSI K8NGM2 motherboard before? i've tried with both the AMD64 and x86 ubuntu 6.06 cds, but it hangs every time on the kernel booting
[11:12] <Howitzer> Could anyone tell me where to get compiz themes?
[11:13] <mkns> eh?
[11:13] <ic56> zaudragon: it does make sense.  In the same way that way to change your password is to first provide your old password
[11:13] <Zooliegsm> ok,back again....any good movie editor with mp3 support????
[11:13] <Howitzer> because i hate the Compiz window deco's included
[11:13] <zaudragon> Zooliegsm: I was going to say iMovie, but that's for OS X :D
[11:13] <J-_> still "applying listed operations"
[11:13] <kaatil> in my opinion, ubuntu is awesome.. that all i can say about it now. :)
[11:13] <zaudragon> ic56: ah ok
[11:13] <FusionXN1> kaat - ya cept some hardware dont work x(
[11:13] <kaatil> yeahg
[11:14] <ic56> zaudragon: rm -d doesn't do what you think it does.  Also, it's unnecessary in conjunction with rm -r
[11:14] <gregg__> zaudragon: I think that doesn't work :)
[11:14] <kaatil> i purhased sub300(from canada) then install ubuntu over linspire anyway
[11:14] <zaudragon> fine :(
[11:14] <kaatil> it is not bad
[11:14] <zaudragon> it's just habit, then
[11:14] <gregg__> zaudragon: it's the same as kill -9 1
[11:14] <soundray> FusionXN1: just access it that way, then
[11:14] <lindztr> Hi. I am looking for a program to play audio from the line-in in realtime, does anyone know a program to do that?
[11:15] <gregg__> or does this one actually work?
[11:15] <FusionXN1> sound - it should still show on the computer
[11:15] <kaatil> i do like automatix.. thank god for that.. without it there no such as  video player on ubuntu. :)
[11:15] <zaudragon> gregg__: well, there are processes you can't kill
[11:15] <zaudragon> the kernel, for instance, probably won't die
[11:16] <Shaezsche>  modem doesnt work, scanmodem says i need the driver:   SmartLink slamr 2000:2800 Gateway SL2800    122d:2800
[11:16] <endgamer> Hi folks - got a recommendation request. Probably an "of course not, dumbass" question, but I thought it was worth a try. Does anyone know of an application out there that does the same as Rythmbox, but for video? Ie a nice clean interface which keeps its size instead of spawning new windows for each file, media library features etc. I've scoured the net and everyone says there's nothing better than Xine, etc. etc. but Xine
[11:16] <endgamer> still seems pretty *rough*, you know? Background: I'm a fairly experienced Linux geek, been using it as a desktop for about 6 years now, running uptodate Ubuntu.
[11:16] <gregg__> yeah, but the init process (always PID 1) normally behaves like a normal process just does :)
[11:16] <jesspher> do any of you know any cool game for linux ubuntu?
[11:16] <seeker__> jesspher: ROFL! you must be joking!
[11:17] <ardchoille> W00T! Ubuntu counter: 4124 Users with 6146 Machines  =)
[11:17] <seeker__> jesspher: if you seek games, get an ps2 or xbox
[11:17] <fistandantilus> enemy territory is pretty sweet, and free
[11:17] <Agrajag> jesspher: I like UT2004, or quake 3/4, but those are not free
[11:17] <endgamer> seeker: Now that's harsh. There's always chess with all the pieces replaced with Tux <lol>
[11:17] <zaudragon> Battle for Wesnoth?
[11:17] <zaudragon> oooh! Tetris in emacs! :D
[11:17] <seeker__> Agrajag: if you want to play quake etc, get an xbox
[11:17] <ic56> zaudragon: the kernel isn't a process (yes, it *is* a running program, but operating systems designers define processes as anything *but* the kernel).  However, traditionally the kernel dies if init dies because without init, the kernel is pretty useless.  Unsure if the Linux kernel acts this way by default.  Try it: kill -9 1 and see what happens
[11:17] <Agrajag> uh, what?
[11:17] <seeker__> endgamer: LOL
[11:18] <jesspher> ps2 and xbox graphics suck
[11:18] <Agrajag> who the hell plays quake on a console?
[11:18] <seeker__> jesspher: Linux is not a games console
[11:18] <fistandantilus> quake on a console is retarded
[11:18] <Agrajag> man oh man, kids these days
[11:18] <zaudragon> ic56: no thanks ;)
[11:18] <endgamer> seeker: Or 500 game engines with Amiga-level graphics and no games developed for them. Not that I'm bitter or anything <g>
[11:18] <gregg__> ic56: won't the kernel respawn init?
[11:18] <Garnol> can anyone give me a link to a Linux distribution for a arm based smartphone ?? (in google i cant find anything ...)
[11:18] <lindztr> does anyone know a program to play sound from the line-in port in real-time (live)
[11:19] <Dimitrije> Hello, i have a problem with Ubuntu 5.10 and gnome-ppp. I can't install gnome-ppp and get to the internet. While ./configure i get an error that i need XML::Parser perl module. I already installed that but didn't help.
[11:19] <FusionXN1> ANyway to stop the drives showing on the desktop/
[11:19] <zaudragon> Dimitrije: it might not be in the Perl equivalent of $PATH
[11:19] <endgamer> jesspher: Best advice: Subscribe to Transgaming/Cedega (it's only like $5 per month), look up some Windows games in their database, buy, install, play.
[11:19] <Jack_Smirnoff> FusionXN1:  yes
[11:19] <ic56> gregg_: In traditional unix, the kernel doesn't respawn init.  In Linux, I don't know Since zaudragon is being a wimp, why don't you try it? :-)  I would but I've got open files that I'm not finished editing right now.
[11:19] <FusionXN1> jack how
[11:19] <ardchoille> FusionXN1: Which drives? Mounted drives?
[11:19] <mkns> perl @INC
[11:19] <zaudragon> FusionXN1: Desktop Settings
[11:19] <FusionXN1> ya
[11:20] <FusionXN1> wheres desktop settings
[11:20] <zaudragon> ic56: eh? Killing is a sin :D
[11:20] <recon0> Does anyone know how I can get my palm pilot working w/Ubuntu?
[11:20] <rellik> whats the default root password on a new install?
[11:20] <Agrajag> rellik: there isn't one
[11:20] <mkns> Dimitrije - where is XML::Parser installed?
[11:20] <ardchoille> FusionXN1: Open gconf-editor and go to apps/nautilus/desktop
[11:20] <Dimitrije> I don't know i used the default path...
[11:20] <Agrajag> rellik: that is, there is no root password. If you need root access use sudo
[11:20] <endgamer> recon0: sudo apt-get install gnome-pilot. Then pray! Actually it's pretty stable these days, and usually works.
[11:21] <rellik> hmmm
[11:21] <ardchoille> rellik: There isn't one, the root account is disabled by default
[11:21] <mkns> ok, have you got a terminal handy?
[11:21] <rellik> ok, i'm an idiot
[11:21] <Jack_Smirnoff> FusionXN1: term gconf-editor   browse to /apps/nautilus/desktop and uncheck volumes_visable
[11:21] <mkns> run this: perl -MXML::Parser -de0
[11:21] <rellik> it asks for a password, and i put in MY password, not the nonexistent root password
[11:21] <rellik> duh
[11:21] <Agrajag> right
[11:21] <ardchoille> rellik: :)
[11:21] <recon0> Which port should I use? (I'm using a USB cable).
[11:21] <zaudragon> ic56: fine I'm going to try :D
[11:21] <Dimitrije> Ummm, terminal not handy :D
[11:21] <ic56> zaudragon: killing is only sinful if your god didn't request the sacrifice. :-)  Most gods, including the Judeo-Christian one, ask for a sacrifice now and then
[11:21] <gregg__> ic56: yeah, the *BSDs reboot... I guess I'll have to whip out some live CD ;)
[11:21] <FusionXN1> jack done
[11:21] <FusionXN1> thanks mate
[11:21] <Dimitrije> What do i do after that?
[11:22] <mkns> are you on your Ubuntu box right now?
[11:22] <FusionXN1> Now i need my 3rd hdd to show in computer
[11:22] <Dimitrije> I can't get on internet without gnome-ppp...
[11:22] <Dimitrije> So no.
[11:22] <Jack_Smirnoff> np
[11:22] <Jack_Smirnoff> FusionXN1: is that the external?
[11:22] <FusionXN1> internal sata
[11:22] <ic56> gregg_: no need for liveCD.  Just go into single user mode, then type sync until the disk heads stop moving.  The kill.  With any luck even fsck won't be necessary when you boot.
[11:22] <mkns> ok.  to find out whether XML::Parser is in your path or not, running that will start up the perl debugger in a mode which allows you to run commands one at a time by typing them in
[11:22] <FusionXN1> i can get to it via /media/sdc1
[11:22] <ic56> zaudragon: alright!  A man with balls!
[11:22] <FusionXN1> but its not in computer
[11:23] <zaudragon> ic56: nothing happened
[11:23] <zaudragon> l4m3
[11:23] <ic56> zaudragon: where you root while doing the killing?
[11:23] <fausto_> Hi, I am having a problem mounting a partition in Ubuntu. I recently formatted my Windows partition but left my other partition (containing files, folders, etc.) in tact as a FAT32 partition. Now I can access the drive by going to the "Disks" menu and changing the access path to some random folder and then I go to that folder and I can view it but I can't edit any of them. I also have to do this every time I boot up. How would I go about
[11:23] <fausto_>  getting Ubuntu to mount this ON STARTUP and with read and write permissions.
[11:23] <endgamer> recon0: Mine (Treo 650) comes up as /dev/ttyUSB1. That's pretty common. If that doesn't work, plug it in after installing gnome-pilot, hit the sync button and scan /dev to see what new item pops up in there. It'll probably create two nodes, something like ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 - usually the second one is the right one. I know, it's kind of voodoo!
[11:23] <mkns> the point here is that running that one command will either work with no warning, or it'll warn you that it can't find XML::Parser in your path.  Either way, hit 'q' and press enter to return to your terminal
[11:23] <zaudragon> ic56:  sudo kill -9 1
[11:23] <mkns> follow so far?
[11:23] <Jack_Smirnoff> fausto_: diskmounter script
[11:24] <zaudragon> hmmm, now I need to find out how to automount a partition; anybody?
[11:24] <gregg__> ic56: or remount / read-only
[11:24] <fausto_> Jack ... where would I get that?
[11:24] <Jack_Smirnoff> http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[11:24] <ic56> zaudragon: windows partition?
[11:24] <gregg__> ic56: the problem is, I don't have any installed linux here right now
[11:24] <Jack_Smirnoff> zaudragon: same link
[11:24] <zaudragon> ic56: HFS+
[11:24] <Dimitrije> Yes.
[11:24] <mkns> (assuming you're still with me) - to find out the directories that are in Perl's @INC array (i.e. path) run this:  $ perl -e 'print join( "\n", @INC )'
[11:25] <johlin> is there a way to get the built-essential package to a windows computer, put it on a external harddrive and get it to a ubuntu computer without internet?
[11:25] <Dimitrije> Ok.
[11:25] <Jack_Smirnoff> diskmounter is for windows partitions
[11:25] <fausto_> And so I save that in a *.pl file and run it?
[11:25] <zaudragon> ic56: what's the file that runs on login/startup?
[11:25] <ic56> zaudragon: this script handles HFS too.   BTW, use the -b flag -- it will give yo a backup of your /etc/fstab  So you can compare before and after
[11:25] <mkns> the point is that you need to figure out where XML::Parser is installed.  The *real* question I have for you though is - how did you install XML::Parser?
[11:25] <endgamer> recon0: What you want to do is install the Pilot app in the system tray/toolbar (right click on the bar and select Add to Panel, it should appear somewhere in the page. If not look in synaptic or do an apt-cache search for pilot app. Once it's installed you'll get a Pilot icon in your toolbar which pretty much does everything you want.
[11:25] <jrib> johlin: build-essential is on the install disc
[11:25] <johlin> jrib: nice
[11:26] <seeker__> is kgpgp the gui program for encrypting files?
[11:26] <Dimitrije> I installed it buy unpacking the archive and runing perl Makefile.Pl and than sudo make install
[11:26] <jrib> !info kgpg
[11:26] <ubotu> kgpg: GnuPG frontend for KDE. In repository universe, is optional. Version 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu8 (dapper), package size 431 kB, installed size 1376 kB
[11:26] <lindztr> Hi. I am looking for a program to play audio from the line-in/microphone in realtime, does anyone know a program to do that?
[11:26] <Dimitrije> And make of course betwean that.
[11:26] <mkns> Dimitrije - that was wrong
[11:26] <jrib> seeker__: yes, but it is kgpg, not kgpgp
[11:26] <endgamer> So, anyone got a suggestion for my Rythmbox video question?
[11:26] <IRCMonkeyx> hi people, when i try to login as root from login screen, it says not allowed, what is the reason?
[11:26] <mkns> what you *should* have done was : sudo apt-get install libxml-parser-perl
[11:26] <Dimitrije> That what it was in readme file...
[11:27] <Dimitrije> But i don't have internet...
[11:27] <Agrajag> IRCMonkeyx: did you set up a root password?
[11:27] <ardchoille> seeker__: kgpg is one of them, Seahorse is another one (for gnome)
[11:27] <mkns> why install a perl module from a tarball when it's packaged for you?
[11:27] <jonass> i have installed apache2 and mysqld on my ubuntu box but i do not want them to start automatically. what to do?
[11:27] <mkns> you don't have the internet, but somehow you got the tarball on to the box...?
[11:27] <Dimitrije> I have it on install disk?
[11:27] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: use sudo or gksudo or kdesu
[11:27] <ic56> zaudragon: at startup, init reads /etc/inittab which tells it to run /etc/init.d/rc with various arguments.  Depending on the arguments, rc executes various scripts located in /etc/rc?.d
[11:27] <Dimitrije> I have winblows...
[11:27] <mkns> jonass - read up on update-rc.d
[11:28] <IRCMonkeyx> Agrajag	: yes i did it, i  try to login, from first login screen not from terminal
[11:28] <ic56> zaudragon: so sudo kill -9 1 didn't kill nothing?  Huh
[11:28] <seeker__> jrib: is I install kgpg, will that install all I need?
[11:28] <zaudragon> ic56: or, I didn't have any extra processes open
[11:28] <ardchoille> IRCMonkeyx: The root account is disabled in Ubuntu. Log into your user account and use sudo in a term for admin tasks.
[11:28] <Agrajag> IRCMonkeyx: GDM probably won't let you log in as root. why do you want to log in to Gnome or KDE or whatever you use as root?
[11:28] <zaudragon> ic56: but yeah, Terminal stayed
[11:28] <kaatil> we have 4 comps in house...  2 winxp, 1 win 98, and 1 ubuntu(that me on it. :) )
[11:28] <mkns> Dimitrije - what install disk is it you speak of?
[11:28] <Agrajag> That;s a really bad idea.
[11:28] <jrib> seeker__: it will install what you need to run kgpg, I'm not sure what you want to do
[11:28] <zaudragon> kaatil: haha, I have more, but all 6 have OS X, this one haveing both
[11:29] <IRCMonkeyx> just too see the difference
[11:29] <Dimitrije> I get it from shipit. One install CD and live.
[11:29] <Agrajag> much better to just use sudo or gksudo to get root priveleges
[11:29] <kaatil> OS X? i see :)
[11:29] <Jack_Smirnoff> Dimitrije: live is also install other is alternate
[11:29] <IRCMonkeyx> i use su -
[11:29] <jonass> hibernate is not working at my laptop. maybe after i installed the prop. ati drivers?
[11:29] <Agrajag> The difference is root is allowed to do nasty things and break the entire OS. the desktop will not act any different, except to alert you that logging in as root is a bad idea.
[11:29] <Ignite_> !info automake1.6
[11:29] <ubotu> Package automake1.6 does not exist in dapper
[11:29] <Ignite_> :'(
[11:30] <gnomefreak> !info automake
[11:30] <ubotu> Package automake does not exist in dapper
[11:30] <zaudragon> jonass: it didn't work
[11:30] <Dimitrije> Jack_Smirnoff, I am talking about 5.10.
[11:30] <kaatil> i never touch root account except for sudo.
[11:30] <IRCMonkeyx> i see, and any warning by being root by su - , not with sudo
[11:30] <Jack_Smirnoff> ah
[11:30] <kaatil> sudo on other account of course
[11:30] <mkns> Dimitrije - download the deb from https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/i386/libxml-parser-perl/2.34-4 when using Windows, burn it to a CD and reboot in to Ubuntu and install from the CD
[11:30] <jonass> what didn't work?
[11:30] <eyequeue> as user, you get told only root can do it, then you get to think and do it anyway IF safe, with sudo :)
[11:30] <zaudragon> jonass: sorry meant Jack_Smirnoff
[11:30] <Dimitrije> Thanks mkns.
[11:30] <mkns> ok
[11:30] <jonass> ok :>
[11:31] <endgamer> Fair enough. Presumably noone knows. recon0: any luck?
[11:31] <Jack_Smirnoff> zaudragon: what?
[11:31] <eyequeue> IRCMonkeyx, really do read this if you havent
[11:31] <ardchoille> eyequeue: Indeed, that password prompt is quite an attention getter :)
[11:31] <zaudragon> the script != work
[11:31] <eyequeue> !rootsudo > IRCMonkeyx
[11:31] <Dimitrije> If i come in 10 minutes i did it :)
[11:31] <recon0> endgamer: nope. i'm trying my luck w/jpilot
[11:31] <mkns> i'll be here :)
[11:31] <eyequeue> IRCMonkeyx, "sudo -i" is in there, and may be what you want ;)
[11:32] <PseudoPlacebo> Quick question, if I want to share a partition between windows and Ubuntu, what format should it be?
[11:32] <Agrajag> fat32
[11:32] <endgamer> recon0: What did you get when you ran gnome-pilot setup?
[11:32] <PseudoPlacebo> 'kay.
[11:32] <PseudoPlacebo> Many thanks.
[11:32] <IRCMonkeyx> eyequeue: thanx, started to read
[11:32] <zaudragon> Jack_Smirnoff: wait, actually, it was added to /etc/fstab but diskmounter didn't mount the partition automatically
[11:32] <eyequeue> some say ext2 is okay as a transfer fs too
[11:32] <eyequeue> !ext2
[11:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about ext2 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:32] <eyequeue> !ext
[11:32] <ccc_> seeker__: kgpg maintains your gpg keys and encrypts mail etc. it is not a pgpdisk equivalent.
[11:32] <Jack_Smirnoff> zaudragon: you need to restart
[11:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about ext - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:33] <fausto_> Jack_Smirnoff: I ran diskmounter, ran great, it says the disks are mounted and I don't need to reboot but I can't see them? Where would they be?
[11:33] <Jack_Smirnoff> zaudragon: I know the script says you dont.. but you do
[11:33] <zaudragon> Jack_Smirnoff: too bad, already mounted manually
[11:33] <zaudragon> works just as well
[11:33] <Jack_Smirnoff> fausto_: restart x
[11:33] <fausto_> Oh ok. Thanks.
[11:33] <Jack_Smirnoff> I need to fix that line in the script
[11:33] <ic56> Jack_Smirnoff: shouldn't need to reboot after running diskmounter.  Something must be odd about your system
[11:34] <zaudragon> ic56: my system too
[11:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> ic56: trust me, to see them on the desktop restart x
[11:34] <IRCMonkeyx> eyequeue: when i try to enter to some directories from nailatius , it says to me u dont have root right to change this etc.
[11:34] <eyequeue> ccc_, pgpdisk, that was the ms-only thing that did what cfs did in linux?
[11:34] <recon0> endgamer:sry, disconnect.
[11:34] <ic56> zaudragon: which version of the script did you run? sh diskmounter -V  should report it
[11:34] <endgamer> recon0: What did you get when you ran the gnome-pilot setup?
[11:34] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: You can use term and sudo nautilus
[11:34] <ic56> zaudragon: assuming you are using a recent version (the old ones don't have -V)
[11:35] <eyequeue> cfsd (8)             - cryptographic file system daemon
[11:35] <recon0> endgamer: what usually happens is I get to the "initial sync" screen, but when I try to sync my clie PEG-s300, it doesn't do anything.
[11:35] <ardchoille> IRCMonkeyx: use gksudo nautilus, rather than sudo nautilus
[11:35] <ccc_> eyequeue: yes, sort of
[11:35] <zaudragon> ic56: doesn't have it
[11:35] <zaudragon> but never mind
[11:35] <jonass> hibernate is not working at my laptop. maybe after i installed the prop. ati drivers?
[11:35] <Samus_Aran> can someone explain to me why there are no dictionaries for OpenOffice.org ?
[11:35] <fausto_> I also have been having a problem on boot up where the screen goes blank and I can't do anything. If I hit Ctrl+F1 and go to command line and then keep hitting it to prevent it going to the GUI and then waiting for it to be done and then hitting CTRL+F7 it works but it's just kind of a pain. I've googled the problem and that's the only solution I can find. My video card is an ATI All-In-Wonder 8500DV
[11:35] <Samus_Aran> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 786 2006-07-10 14:12 /usr/lib/openoffice/share/wordbook/en-US/soffice.dic
[11:35] <AnarchOi> n
[11:35] <eyequeue> IRCMonkeyx, ewww, here's where we drift apart :)  i was thinking console, not gui
[11:35] <endgamer> You ran the setup from system tools/pilot configuration, right?
[11:35] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: yes gksudo nautilus
[11:35] <AnarchOi> n
[11:35] <Samus_Aran> that is the only dictionary showing up, it is empty
[11:35] <ic56> zaudragon: ok.  gotta run anyway
[11:35] <Jack_Smirnoff> my bad
[11:35] <zaudragon> bye ic56
[11:36] <IRCMonkeyx> friends, i dont mean from terminal, when i write that command to terminal, will nailatus change ???
[11:36] <Samus_Aran> I've been trying to get a spellchecker in OO.o for days, I've installed every package I can think of, but there simply aren't any dictionaries
[11:36] <eyequeue> IRCMonkeyx, i think the command "gksudo" exists for gui apps, but someone here will have to help you with it
[11:36] <jrib> Samus_Aran: I believe it uses myspell
[11:36] <Samus_Aran> jrib: it doesn't, though.  it is using that file I just pasted
[11:36] <Samus_Aran> which is only 700 characters long
[11:36] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: no nautilus is the same, just sudo for that session
[11:37] <eyequeue> IRCMonkeyx, btw, most gui apps can be launched from a terminal, just don't close the terminal until it's done :)  nautilus might be one of them
[11:37] <Awesome-o2000> where is my auto rejoin when kicked option in xchat?
[11:37] <ardchoille> IRCMonkeyx: running gksudo nautilus from a terminal starts nautilus as root in the /root h9ome directory. But, be careful, that instance of nautilus can do anything on the system.
[11:37] <fausto_> Anybody have a clue as to what's going on with my comp? It worked great until I upgraded to Ubuntu Dapper.
[11:37] <Samus_Aran> although strangely it doesn't highlight every word in the document as being invalid, it just does nothing
[11:37] <fausto_> Breezy didn't do this
[11:37] <Hexidigital> in a /etc/network/interfaces, is the wireless-essid necessary? can i set two essids, or will they clash?
[11:37] <X|Rolando> alsa cant play multiple sounds simultaneously for some reason :(
[11:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> fausto_: upgrades are problematic since no one could anticipate everything a user may have done to their system..
[11:38] <fausto_> Got it. Good enough for me.
[11:38] <digital> Is there something wrong with the database part of OpenOffice?
[11:38] <digital> Every time I try to create a database it crashes
[11:38] <seagulltheme> yeah, me too o_o
[11:38] <IRCMonkeyx> ardchoille: how can i be careful ? what shouldnt  i do ? or what should i do for protecting system ?
[11:38] <jrib> Samus_Aran: which myspell dictionaries did you install?
[11:38] <Jack_Smirnoff> fausto_: did you have a backup
[11:38] <mcquaid> hello, i know you can use rdesktop to connect to an xp box, but is there any way to do remote assistance?
[11:39] <ardchoille> IRCMonkeyx: Just remember that you can delete almost any file on the system with a gksudo nautilus window, so it's best to think about what you're doing as you work.
[11:39] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: yes, use POWER tools with care
[11:39] <fausto_> And now one more question. I installed VMWare and installed Windows XP as a virtual disk (it works like a charm!) but I am unable to get it to connect it to the internet. I have tried both bridge and NAT and neither of them can get windows to get an IP address or so much as recognize that it's on a network. Anyone have a link or want to walk me through that?
[11:39] <section3> is it possible to create a new directory and new file in one command...something like 'touch newdir/newfile'
[11:40] <IRCMonkeyx> ardchoille: ohh i see, i know that danger, thanx for warning
[11:40] <ardchoille> IRCMonkeyx: You're welcome :)
[11:40] <X|Rolando> alsa cant play multiple sounds simultaneously for some reason :( might anyone be able to help me?
[11:40] <kennyt> where's the dev package for wireless-tools?
[11:40] <tuliomgui> where is the grub.conf in ubuntu??
[11:40] <IRCMonkeyx> Jack_Smirnoff: power tools ? you mean the things releated with acpi ?
[11:40] <mkns>  it is in /boot/grub
[11:41] <jrib> tuliomgui: /boot/grub/menu.lst is that what you want?
[11:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> IRCMonkeyx: no, I mean using gksudo
[11:41] <tuliomgui> mkns: grub.conf ?
[11:41] <goonies> what is better, a ubuntu kernel or a kernel from kernel.org
[11:41] <mkns> menu.lst, as jrib said
[11:41] <Jack_Smirnoff> boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:41] <mkns> goonies - if you can get the ubuntu one to work, you will likely save yourself much hassle
[11:42] <Samus_Aran> jrib: okay I just went and installed every myspell package I could find.  most were already installed, some were not
[11:42] <goonies> why does ubuntu use menu.lst, other distros ive used use grub.conf
[11:42] <tuliomgui> menu.lst thanks everyone!! =D
[11:42] <Samus_Aran> jrib: will restart and see if it makes a difference
[11:42] <kennyt> there's no wireless-tools-dev and no header packages for *wireless* or *wifi*
[11:42] <mkns> goonies - that's not ubuntu specific, it changed quite a while back
[11:42] <goonies> really
[11:42] <endgamer> recon0: Hope you get it sorted, anyway - have to dash!
[11:42] <goonies> now its menu.lst
[11:42] <mkns> it's menu.lst on my debian etch box
[11:42] <goonies> gentoo might still be on an older grub i guess
[11:43] <MtJB> have the ubuntu secufrity servers been hacked?
[11:43] <kennyt> goonies: gentoo has both, one links to the other :)
[11:43] <jrib> Samus_Aran: just restart openoffice
gentoo is pish</opinion>
[11:43] <goonies> thats what was confusing me kenny
[11:43] <goonies> heh
[11:43] <IRCMonkeyx> lets try the danger command, thanx for help, coming back, if i dont damage my system :)
[11:43] <goonies> anyway back to kernels, i like the performance i get from ubuntu kernels over the kernel.org ones, must be the way its configured
[11:44] <Samus_Aran> jrib: that's what I meant.  done.  no difference.  when I go to spell check, it immediately says "completed, do you want to restart at the top of the document ?", I click "yes", it closes the window
[11:44] <jrib> Samus_Aran: make sure tools > options > language has a language selected with an "abc" checkmark next to it
[11:44] <Samus_Aran> jrib: no mispellings are underlined in red
[11:44] <puppet> goonies: just compile your own with the make pakckage for kernel
[11:44] <puppet> that makes your own .deb
[11:44] <goonies> anyone know a program that allows u to specify layerbreaks?
[11:44] <goonies> burning program
[11:44] <goonies> puppet, i have =)
[11:45] <Samus_Aran> jrib: well the "Language Settings" appears now.  it was not there when I went to Tools > Options yesterday.  hopefully I can turn on a spellchecker now
[11:45] <mkns> puppet - but you've got to go through the process of choosing a bazzillion things whereas the ubuntu packaged one might just work
[11:46] <fausto_> And now one more question. I installed VMWare and installed Windows XP as a virtual disk (it works like a charm!) but I am unable to get it to connect it to the internet. I have tried both bridge and NAT and neither of them can get windows to get an IP address or so much as recognize that it's on a network. Anyone have a link or want to walk me through that?
[11:46] <Samus_Aran> jrib: the only one that shows up in the top is "OO.o Hunspell SpellChecker"
[11:46] <Samus_Aran> jrib: as well as a thesaurus
[11:47] <erUSUL> mkns: just copy the ubuntu kernel config and use make oldconfig
[11:47] <jrib> Samus_Aran: yes, that is what I have as well
[11:47] <puppet> mkns: no, not with the script
[11:47] <goonies> anyone know a burning program that allows u to specify layerbreaks?
[11:48] <mkns> this is true
[11:48] <mkns> but installing the package is quicker for me...
[11:50] <Samus_Aran> jrib: restarted, still not working.  the drop-down for "Edit" on the dictionary shows English for Australia, Great Britain and USA.  I want the UK English, but any time I select it and close the window, it reverts to Australia English .. and none of it produces any spell checking
[11:51] <eigenlambda> why can itunes on my mac access the shared files from rhythmbox, but service-discovery-applet doesn't know that my mac is sharing files?
[11:51] <goonies> anyway to share music on a linux box to a xbox360?
[11:52] <solomon> Hi everybody
[11:52] <tuxtux> reboot bye
[11:52] <jrib> Samus_Aran: what is selected in tools > options > language settings > language > default languages for documents > western?
[11:52] <Samus_Aran> goonies: does the XBox support streaming MP3s ?  if so, install IceCast
[11:52] <lindztr> Hi. I am still looking for a program to play audio from the line-in/microphone in realtime, does anyone know a program to do that?
[11:52] <ku> !mplayer
[11:52] <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
[11:52] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[11:52] <goonies> yeah it does, but in order to use it i have to use windows media connect
[11:52] <kaatil> !xine
[11:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about xine - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:52] <goonies> was wondering if there was an alternative for linux
[11:53] <Samus_Aran> jrib: English (Canada)
[11:53] <rpedro_> lindztr: huh? just unmute the channels
[11:53] <fausto_> And now one more question. I installed VMWare and installed Windows XP as a virtual disk (it works like a charm!) but I am unable to get it to connect it to the internet. I have tried both bridge and NAT and neither of them can get windows to get an IP address or so much as recognize that it's on a network. Anyone have a link or want to walk me through that?
[11:53] <jrib> Samus_Aran: set that to what you desire, make sure it has the "abc" checkmark next to it
[11:53] <Jack_Smirnoff> goonies: Mac, WIndows, and many more
[11:53] <goonies> Jack_Smirnoff, do u have a 360?
[11:53] <rpedro_> lindztr: unless you mean you want to *record*
[11:54] <lindztr> rpedro_: no, not to record.
[11:54] <Jack_Smirnoff> no
[11:54] <fausto_> Anybody?
[11:54] <goonies> if i install it though i can share music with my 360?
[11:55] <Howitzer> I remember there was a way to play 3D-games in XGL by starting them up in their own X server
[11:55] <Samus_Aran> jrib: okay done: <ABC> English (UK)
[11:55] <Howitzer> however, i can't find the guide on the forums using the search
[11:55] <lindztr> rpedro_: you are a star in the book! why am I that slow today?! must be the hot weather ;)
[11:55] <Samus_Aran> jrib: still no spellchecking being done
[11:55] <Howitzer> anyone that can help?
[11:55] <Samus_Aran> jrib: I restarted OO.o
[11:56] <jrib> Samus_Aran: k, make sure the dictionary is using uk as well
[11:56] <jrib> with the "edit" button you used before
[11:56] <Samus_Aran> jrib: it reset the document one to English (Canada) now
[11:56] <jrib> Samus_Aran: hmm, that won't do
[11:56] <Samus_Aran> jrib: the edit button shows "English (Australia)" and if I change it, it always reverts to that
[11:57] <ku> Darn... does anyone know how to make youtube sound come out? It worked before I updated firefox, and now I can't seem to find the guide that I followed to get it to work in the first place.
[11:57] <doctormo> should ubuntu be able to mount a FAT32 usb mass storage device? or is this device NTFS and how do I get it to work or reformat it?
[11:58] <ku> !youtube
[11:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about youtube - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:58] <Samus_Aran> jrib: I tried "English (Australia)" in the default document one, and that stuck ... but I would prefer "English (UK)" dictionaries.  it is spellchecking now
[11:58] <neutrinomass> doctormo: AFAIK it should work out of the box ... what happens when you plug it in ?
[11:58] <Samus_Aran> jrib: I did install the myspell dicts for English GB, US and AU
[11:59] <ronald> Dennis Kaarsemaker > What's youre problem
[11:59] <Samus_Aran> doctormo: if it is FAT32, it will be mounted as a SCSI hard drive (/dev/sda or /dev/sda1 if you have no other such devices)
[11:59] <jrib> Samus_Aran: try starting with a blank document and changing the language to UK.  I just changed mine to canada and had to restart OO to get it to go back to USA (my default)
[11:59] <Samus_Aran> doctormo: for NTFS it will only support read-only (no changes can be made)
[12:00] <J-_> there's something obviously not write.... the external hard drive is still "applying listed operations" and that's just putting the ext3 filesystem on the drive.
[12:00] <Samus_Aran> jrib: it seems to think the only dictionary in existance is "English (Australia)"
[12:00] <doctormo> neutrinomass: interestingly it apears as a drive but then says the file system is of unknown type, it has mounted USB Mass storage devices in the past and it works in Windows without drivers... so ntfs perhaps?
[12:00] <ronald> Seveas ???????????????
[12:00] <jrib> Samus_Aran: is there an <abc> next to the western language selection of English (UK)?
