[12:01] <Levi__> To anybody who can help me out... I'm a totally new user in linux and Ubuntu doesn't work with my soundcard. Can anybody tell me how to fix it?
[12:01] <Lamego> find . -maxdepth 1 -type d
[12:01] <qbert> what is the quick launch command sequence again ?
[12:01] <qbert> key sequence
[12:01] <viveknz76> what's underlying middleware layer
[12:01] <POVaddct> Lane: you need root privileges for that tool
[12:01] <SaLoMoN> hii ?
[12:01] <NemesisUK> Levi__, whats your soundcard
[12:02] <SaLoMoN> anyone here who know very much about postfix with ubuntu?
[12:02] <qbert> \
[12:02] <Lane> POVaddct, I have root privelages
[12:02] <Levi__> it's an intel
[12:02] <POVaddct> Lane: hmm
[12:02] <WillyWortel> sethk: doesn't work
[12:02] <sethk> WillyWortel, what doesn't work?
[12:02] <NemesisUK> Levi__, intel which one?
[12:03] <WillyWortel> find . --maxdepth 1 -type d
[12:03] <sethk> WillyWortel, just tried it here, works fine
[12:03] <viveknz76> well.. if I uncomment everything in interfaces .. i can use wifi radar to connect to WEP
[12:03] <ych> anyone here use amule without a xserver?
[12:03] <sethk> WillyWortel, . means current directory, or replace it with a path
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> !sound
[12:03] <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
[12:03] <viveknz76> do i need to uninstall wifi radar to get network manager to work
[12:04] <hollaburoo> anyone here have experience using an msi vox tv tuner?
[12:04] <TheGateKeeper> !sound > Levi__
[12:04] <slimz> i found out what my ubuntu machines name was, and its named "ubuntu" :) very unique. anyways i tried to vnc to "ubuntu" and i have no luck, it is connected over dhcp
[12:04] <Lane> POVaddct: you know what you were right i typed in a terminal window that I had su ed in. However I get another error:
[12:04] <Lane> p0f - passive os fingerprinting utility, version 2.0.5

[12:04] <NemesisUK> Levi__, can you do this in a terminal lspci | grep Multimedia and post the output
[12:04] <tvgm2___> anyone know of a gui interface to manage the xorg.conf?
[12:04] <Lane> no that error
[12:04] <Warbo> ych: Why not use MLDonkey?
[12:04] <sethk> slimz, the name has to resolve in your DNS to use the name.  You can use the IP

[12:04] <Lane> See man tcpdump or p0f README for help on bpf filter expressions.
[12:04] <slimz> sethk : how do i get the name to resolve, so i can just use that?
[12:05] <Lane> POVaddct: Sorry having trouble typing today.
[12:05] <Levi__> 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)
[12:05] <sethk> slimz, depends on how your network is set up.  where does your IP address come from?
[12:05] <Levi__> i couldn't remember the command
[12:05] <WillyWortel> sethk : I type:  find . --maxdepth 1 -type d   it says : find . --maxdepth 1 -type d
[12:05] <rattboi> are there any PPC users in here?
[12:05] <Grue_Lovah> hah!  the user agent switcher worked like a charm!!
[12:05] <tvgm2___> good
[12:05] <sethk> WillyWortel, where are you typing it?
[12:05] <WillyWortel> find: invalid predicate `--maxdepth'
[12:05] <rattboi> actually, I'm interested in this from a x86 point of view too
[12:05] <POVaddct> Lane: seems you ran p0f with invalid syntax
[12:05] <slimz> sethk : my windows xp machine is connected directly to a dsl modem, and then my ubuntu machine connects to my xp machine to another network card on it
[12:05] <NemesisUK> Levi__, lspci | grep Multimedia
[12:06] <finalbeta> How do I run multiple instances of totem?
[12:06] <sethk> WillyWortel, sorry, only one dash

[12:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:06] <rattboi> is there a way to restart into your other operating system w/o having to choose something at boot-time?
[12:06] <Lane> POVaddct: Wow, I think I have reached a new low on the stupid meter...thanks for your help
[12:06] <Levi__> 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)
[12:06] <rattboi> say, if you're remotely logged into XP, and want to restart into Ubuntu
[12:06] <tvgm2___> !xorg
[12:06] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:06] <Lamego> rattboi, you could change the default boot system on the grub configuration
[12:07] <azureal> in long listing format (ls -l) what does an "s" as the first character mean?
[12:07] <Warbo> ych: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MLDonkey
[12:07] <ych> thanks
[12:07] <sethk> rattboi, there is, in some ways, but possibly not the way you mean
[12:07] <Lamego> the timeout will drive you to the system you have setup as default
[12:07] <ych> ill check it out
[12:07] <rattboi> Lamego, yeah, that's easy
[12:07] <Phaqui> Where can I find my windows (NTFS) disk when using the Terminal?
[12:07] <WillyWortel> sethk, that works, but it also show normal files, i only wanna list of my dirs
[12:07] <neuroe> test
[12:07] <Lamego> azureal, setuid
[12:07] <sethk> rattboi, it is possible to control what happens for one boot cycle
[12:07] <rattboi> but ok, after that, what if I want to reboot back into XP?
[12:07] <sethk> WillyWortel, with -type d  it does not show normal files
[12:07] <Warbo> Phaqui: Wherever you put it. Try "cat /etc/fstab | grep ntfs"
[12:07] <sethk> WillyWortel, find . -maxdepth 1 -type d
[12:07] <Lamego> azureal, it means the program should run as the file owner instead of the user running it
[12:07] <Khamael> how do I enable Fast Writes and SBA in the nvidia drivers in ubuntu?
[12:07] <mcphail> Lamego: azureal: isn't it a socket?
[12:08] <neuroe> in a word, magic
[12:08] <soundray> rattboi: 'sudo echo y | grub-reboot N' where N is the number of your Windows title entry in menu.lst, starting the count at 0
[12:08] <Lamego> mcphail, ok, now i am not so sure :P
[12:08] <Levi__> NemesisUK, you still there?
[12:08] <azureal> Lamego, mcphail -- i'm just configuring my terminal colors... and i finally found something in pink... /dev/log
[12:08] <ICE> does anyone run freenx here ?
[12:08] <jeff_> Can anyone here connect to Steam atm??
[12:08] <NemesisUK> Levi__,  at a terminal type sudo modprobe intel-8x0 and if it loads ok add intel-8x0 to /etc/modules
[12:09] <mcphail> Lamego: You're correct for the "s" flag generally, but not so for the first character iirc
[12:09] <burzum> i cant boot into a desktop, after the gdm login it doesnt matter which one i boot (gnome, xfce...) it starts loading and throws me back to the gdm loginmanager then... any ideas?
[12:09] <NemesisUK> Levi__, after doing that reboot and see if you have sound
[12:09] <Lamego> ok, so it is a socket :)
[12:09] <Phaqui> ah, thanks, found it :)
[12:09] <tvgm2___> jeff_: i can on Windows
[12:09] <Levi__> this is what it came up with         FATAL: Module intel_8x not found.
[12:09] <azureal> ah, so what's with that log file?
[12:09] <Phaqui> ... /media/sd2/ :)
[12:09] <Lamego> burzum, check the permissions on the home dir
[12:09] <POVaddct> Levi__: the module is called snd-intel8x0
[12:10] <finalbeta> !bonobo
[12:10] <tvgm2___> anyone know of a gui interface to manage the xorg.conf?
[12:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bonobo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:10] <Lamego> i would create a test user , just to make sure it is not specifif to that user configuration
[12:10] <soundray> burzum: log in on a console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and look at the errors logged in $HOME/.xsession-errors (the end of that file is probably most interesting)
[12:10] <azureal> mcphail, and a 'c' as the first char... what would that be?
[12:10] <burzum> soundray, ok
[12:10] <Levi__> ok, it loaded
[12:11] <geeksauce> my weather desklet keeps saying retrieval failed and [ambiguous]  after the city name.  it used to work fine, and obviously my internet connection is working fine.
[12:11] <Lamego> maybe characted device ? what is the file name ?
[12:11] <Lamego> character device
[12:11] <Levi__> so, how do I add that command to the modules folder?
[12:11] <TheGateKeeper> tvgm2___: wizzard --> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:12] <soundray> geeksauce: someone else had a similar complaint here yesterday -- the problem is thus probably on the server side
[12:12] <NemesisUK> Levi__, it sohuld of been sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0
[12:12] <azureal> interesting..
[12:12] <Levi__> i did that and the command went through
[12:12] <geeksauce> soundray: it has been doing this for over a month now
[12:12] <tvgm2___> TheGateKeeper: that works when gnome is running, or do i have to use it in recovery mode?
[12:13] <geeksauce> soundray: you'd think they would have it fixed by now
[12:13] <Levi__> that's it, then?
[12:13] <NemesisUK> Levi__, if it loads add snd-intel8x0 to your /etc/modules file and see how it goes after a reboot
[12:13] <Levi__> ok
[12:13] <Levi__> thanks a ton
[12:13] <NemesisUK> np
[12:13] <soundray> geeksauce: you would, wouldn't you? Perhaps you need to change a URL in your configuration.
[12:13] <davanger> ppl help me test my IceCast server and connect to http://fabtech.suroot.com:8000/stream.ogg let me know how it sounds and if the connection is stable -thanx
[12:13] <khobar> hi it's me again :P
[12:14] <TheGateKeeper> tvgm2___: think you can use it in recovery mode, others may know more info
[12:14] <khobar> can anyone tell me some good php editor
[12:14] <khobar> the best would be with autofiling
[12:14] <qbert> emacs
[12:14] <mcphail> azureal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permissions
[12:14] <qbert> php-mode
[12:14] <geeksauce> soundray: there are no URL's.
[12:14] <tvgm2___> TheGateKeeper: ok, thank you very much
[12:15] <geeksauce> soundray: you just type in the city name and it (supposedly) reports the weather
[12:15] <khobar> thx
[12:15] <geeksauce> soundray: there is a workaround for it, but it's frustrating me that it isn't working like it's supposed to
[12:15] <burzum> soundray: http://nopaste.php-q.net/232758 this is whats in the log after starting gnome (without activated xgl)
[12:15] <finalbeta> How do I run multiple instances of totem?
[12:15] <TheGateKeeper> tvgm2___: yw :-) editing is not always that ownerous, just make sure you make a backup
[12:15] <khobar> but isn't that for Mac's ?
[12:15] <soundray> geeksauce: now think about this carefully: how would it retrieve information online, if not through some URL?
[12:16] <trogbot> Anyone help a newbie try to get UMAX Scanner to work?  Any help appreciated.
[12:16] <Aphex_Twin> name a voice synthetiser for linux
[12:17] <geeksauce> soundray:  i meant there is nowhere (other than that workaround thing) where you have to configure it to retrieve from a certain URL.
[12:17] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: may be of interest --> http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/
[12:17] <soundray> burzum: something is wrong with your Xgl setup. I suggest you go back to your original Xorg configuration.
[12:17] <POVaddct> Aphex_Twin: festival
[12:17] <WillyWortel> Trogbot : http://www.linux.com/howtos/Hardware-HOWTO/scanners.shtml
[12:17] <tvgm2___> TheGateKeeper: i was just wondering if there was a package to make automatic backups, change multi monitor settings and such
[12:17] <geeksauce> soundray: it's supposed to be automated is all i'm saying, and it's weird how it just up and stopped working one day
[12:17] <soundray> geeksauce: surely, the URL is configured in some file somewhere in your $HOME
[12:18] <trogbot> WillyWortel:  Thanks for the link.
[12:18] <TheGateKeeper> !fixres
[12:18] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:18] <burzum> soundray... uh, i thought ive changed nothing to the server itself? the wiki suggest a sessionentry thats all ive done
[12:18] <TheGateKeeper> !fixres > tvgm2___
[12:19] <Aphex_Twin> POVaddct: does that have a GUI ?
[12:19] <tvgm2___> ah ok
[12:19] <Aphex_Twin> does festival have a guy?
[12:19] <POVaddct> Aphex_Twin: no, why should it?
[12:19] <soundray> geeksauce: providing even a simple service for free is a lossmaking business. Perhaps they just shut it down.
[12:19] <tvgm2___> thanks again
[12:19] <TheGateKeeper> tvgm2___: give ubotu a read
[12:19] <davanger> ppl help me test my IceCast server and connect to http://fabtech.suroot.com:8000/stream.ogg let me know how it sounds and if the connection is stable -thanx
[12:19] <wifiworks> whats the smiplest way to scan for essid 's on wifi??
[12:19] <geeksauce> soundray: i believe that the desklet is compiled with most major US cities and their respective URL's.  so unless i want to re-compile the script...
[12:20] <soundray> burzum: no, if you read the wiki carefully, it will tell you to change a link to your X server to point to Xgl
[12:20] <TheGateKeeper> tvgm2___: with linux you have to willing to get your hands dirty to some extent, it's not like windows :-)
[12:20] <wifiworks> I need to find my network name
[12:20] <burzum> soundray hmmm ok
[12:20] <dv_> hi
[12:20] <azureal> thx Lamego + mcphail
[12:20] <interbird> So, in essence, when I compile the latest ubuntu kernel-sourcs I can recreate the latest kernel ? (2.6.15-26)
[12:20] <POVaddct> wifiworks: iwlist scanning
[12:20] <dv_> anyone knows how the x11 developer manpages package is called? I cannot find it in synaptic..
[12:21] <khobar> thegatekeeper what is that quantaplus?
[12:21] <wifiworks> soundray: i think i talked to you before can you tell me how I can scan for my essid?
[12:21] <wifiworks> soundray: xp its automatic
[12:22] <sethk> dv_, in breezy the man pages are with the development files, not in a separate section.
[12:22] <soundray> geeksauce: Try this: 'cd ~ ; for i in .* ; do find $i -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l Chicago' if you have configured Chicago. That should spit out a list of files containing the string Chicago.
[12:22] <dv_> sethk, and in dapper?
[12:22] <wifiworks> !essid
[12:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about essid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:22] <sethk> dv_, if you have a specific man page I can check which package provides it.
[12:22] <sethk> dv_, I believe it's the same; I put the qualifier on because I'm checking a breezy system and many people are using dapper.
[12:22] <soundray> wifiworks: I can't check right now, but it's something like 'iwlist wlan0 scan'
[12:22] <dv_> sethk, for example I need opengl stuff
[12:23] <dv_> but IIRC it is included in the x11 dev manpages
[12:23] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: 'feature rich web development environment', :-) never actually got round to using it myself, but I hear good things about, and I think it would be usefull for Php
[12:23] <interbird> So, in essence, when I compile the latest ubuntu kernel-sourcs I cannot recreate the latest kernel ? (2.6.15-26)
[12:23] <sethk> dv_, I spot checked a couple, and several are on package xserver-xorg-core
[12:23] <wifiworks> soundray: your the best man
[12:23] <khobar> oh ok thx gonna try it in near future :D
[12:23] <soundray> geeksauce: oops, forgot a '; done' at the end
[12:23] <dv_> also, i am missing the stdc++ manpages, so I cannot get help for stl string, fstream etc. :|
[12:23] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: if you don't know about smarty, give that the once over
[12:23] <Aphex_Twin> how can I re-route my audio output into my input?
[12:24] <soundray> wifiworks: I was once, but the couple got divorced after three years...
[12:24] <tuxtux> bye bye
[12:24] <khobar> smarty?
[12:24] <dv_> xserver-xorg-core? k, thx
[12:24] <Aphex_Twin> with alsa, how can I configure my audio output to be able to route it via the input?
[12:24] <ych> !apt-get
[12:24] <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)
[12:24] <Lamego> interbird, if you use the same build options, you do
[12:24] <geeksauce> soundray: what if the name of the city is two words?
[12:24] <dv_> hm, I have both xserver-xorg-core and xserver-xorg-dev installed already
[12:25] <progrock> Anyone know where i can find information n running compiz on a Athlon 64bit comp with an ATI graphics card?
[12:25] <fyrestrtr> progrock: compiz.net
[12:25] <sethk> dv_, there are a bunch of packages in which I find X man pages.
[12:25] <soundray> geeksauce: 'cd ~ ; for i in .* ; do find $i -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l Two\ Words ; done'
[12:25] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: smarty seperates presentation from program logic http://smarty.php.net/
[12:25] <sethk> dv_, I'll paste them onto the paste bot if you like
[12:25] <dv_> sethk, but are they X11 *dev* manpages?
[12:26] <interbird> Lamego: Sources (makefile) say it's -7 and not -26
[12:26] <sethk> dv_, some of each.
[12:26] <angel12> can someone help me compile a driver? whenever i try i get an error saying no rule to make target 'modules'
[12:26] <soundray> geeksauce: better yet, 'cd ~ ; for i in .* ; do find $i -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l Baton.Rouge ; done'
[12:26] <dv_> yeah, put it on the bot, would be nice.
[12:26] <dv_> or paste it in a query
[12:26] <ubuntu__> hi all, I have problem configuring internet, I got DCM245 modem which worked with BAdgy, but after updating to Dapper doesnt work
[12:26] <soundray> geeksauce: improving it further, 'cd ~ ; for i in .* ; do find $i -print0 | xargs -0 grep -il Baton.Rouge ; done'
[12:27] <Lamego> interbird, ok, eventually the linux-source package has not been updated
[12:27] <khobar> TheGatekeeper : Ok thx gonna read some infos about all it now , thx for help
[12:27] <ubuntu__> if I start live CD it works
[12:28] <sethk> dv_, there is a package x11proto-gl-dev, would that have the opengl files you need?
[12:28] <fyrestrtr> !away > bigfuzzyjesus
[12:28] <leshaste> what's a good im client these days? gaim seems rather defunct and featureless
[12:28] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: yw :-) smarty makes life a lot easier
[12:28] <ubuntu__> I can see that there is difference in device mannager, where in Dapper there is no eth0 interface under usb modem
[12:29] <Frankenstein>  DCC SEND 000000000000000000000  is that a problem for ubuntu?
[12:29] <interbird> Lamego: Apperently, I hope this is soon going to happen because I need a kernel with cifs++ stuff
[12:29] <compotatoj> oh god... did the doomsday hackers raid here again?
[12:29] <POVaddct> Frankenstein: it's a problem for you :))
[12:29] <compilerwriter> Does anyone here know of wengophone will work with skype.  I am browsing their web site but am not finding anything fast?
[12:29] <soundray> POVaddct: evidently...
[12:29] <evan_w00> hmm
[12:29] <avis> i need some command line help i am trying to copy over a directory from my usb hard drive to my linux home partition and it must be recursive with all the directories inside it.
[12:29] <khobar> TheGateKeeper : gonna try it ..now I'm wondering how to install that php-mode ..it has strage .el extension :P
[12:30] <due> Frankenstein: Doing that is a bad idea ;)
[12:30] <soundray> compilerwriter: I don't think so. Skype is an island
[12:30] <R6ale> howdy all
[12:30] <mcphail> fyrestrtr: the "away" ubotu factoid is the daftest idea ever
[12:30] <Frankenstein> due, i was asking a question...
[12:30] <soundray> avis: cp -a (read man cp)
[12:30] <Lamego> compilerwriter, i believe wengphone uses SIP, skype uses its own protocol
[12:30] <sethk> dv_, I'm shortening the list to include only dev packages.
[12:30] <due> Frankenstein: Yeah, but no need to copy/paste the string. "DCC vulnearibility" works fine without the added k-line.
[12:30] <TheGateKeeper> khobar: I am sure you figure it out :-)
[12:30] <dv_> sethk, x11-proto-gl-dev isnt it
[12:30] <Frankenstein> due, guess your right... i guess
[12:31] <avis> i tried that soundray and i got this:   s asking a question...
 avis: cp -
[12:31] <avis> cp: cannot stat `./media/a split second': No such file or directory
[12:31] <evan_w00> why does my console say "./configure: No such file or directory" when i use the command "./configure"
[12:31] <longwave> evan_w00: you need to cd to the source directory first, i guess
[12:31] <due> evan_w00: Because there is no configure file in the folder you're currently in?
[12:31] <sethk> dv_, I show four dev packages that include man pages:  ivtools-dev, libmotif-dev, xmanpages-ja, xserver-xorg-driver-fbdev, and xviewg-dev
[12:31] <evan_w00> oh
[12:31] <ubuntu__> I'm sorry if I posted question to wrong channel
[12:31] <Deezzer> hi. can someone help this fresh newbie with command prompt in linux?
[12:31] <evan_w00> i see thanks... ill see if there is...
[12:32] <soundray> avis: in that case you want to try the Alan Cox method (hold on...)
[12:32] <ricky> does anyone know how I can make check Gmail start when my computer does?
[12:32] <Deezzer> i have this asterisk installed on my linux server
[12:32] <sethk> ubuntu__, not the wrong channel
[12:32] <avis> most excellent. thank you
[12:32] <khobar> thegatekeeper: can you aid me a bit..it says that i shall put i t"into my emacs" what's that ?:P
[12:32] <sethk> ubuntu__, maybe nobody knows the answer, but it isn't the wrong channel  :)
[12:32] <Deezzer> and i want to access a different directory..
[12:32] <Deezzer> how do i do it?
[12:32] <longwave> khobar: emacs is a text editor (along with many other features)
[12:32] <Deezzer> (extreme newbie)
[12:32] <soundray> avis: (cd /source/directory && tar cf - . ) | (cd /dest/directory && tar xvfp -) (from the Tips-HOWTO)
[12:32] <longwave> khobar: if you arent using it you probably have the wrong thing
[12:32] <due> Deezzer: cd "directory name"
[12:32] <avis> thank you
[12:32] <mcphail> Deezzer: cd
[12:33] <Aphex_Twin> how can I make the PCM a part of the audio input with alsa?
[12:33] <sethk> dv_, I'm making a list of packages that have man3 pages in X
[12:33] <khobar> oh so i first need emac right?
[12:33] <dv_> thanks
[12:33] <due> Deezzer: To go down a directory, "cd .." (note the space, does matter on unix)
[12:33] <andresmujica> hi, what would happen if i execute dpkg-reconfigure --all ?  is it terrible? would i mess my system so bad?
[12:33] <Deezzer> ok..
[12:33] <longwave> khobar: well, what are you trying to do?

[12:33] <sethk> dv_, it's the same as the list I gave you a moment ago.  If you have a specific man page you are looking for I can search on it.
[12:33] <soundray> andresmujica: sounds like you would be giving yourself a *lot* of work
[12:33] <mcphail> andresmujica: no, it just takes a l_o_n_g time to go through all the packages
[12:34] <dv_> lok for the glEnable one
[12:34] <ubuntu__> sethk , ok let me rephrase the question, how to instal network interface eth0
[12:34] <dv_> +o
[12:34] <khobar> longwave: still learning how to use ubuntu :P
[12:34] <longwave> khobar: you said something about php-mode, which i think is a set of syntax rules so you can edit php easier in emacs, i dont know if that's what you wanted
[12:34] <sethk> ubuntu__, Possibly kernel support for usbnet is not loaded
[12:34] <due> Deezzer: Try googling for a beginner's guide to unix command lines.
[12:35] <sethk> ubuntu__, possibly the kernel is configured without usbnet support.  Hopefully the former
[12:35] <dv_> sethk, here: http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man3/glenable.3.html
[12:35] <andresmujica> ok, i hope i hasn't broken the system (is a remote machine i cannot see from here, what i did...
[12:35] <Daishi> this is weird...xfce wont let me right click and i cant find any bug reports on it
[12:35] <khobar> longwave: that would be that ..i neded editor for php , who would also autofill etc thegatekeeper advised me php-mode with emacs
[12:35] <Deezzer> humm. does anyone on here have asterisk?
[12:36] <sethk> dv_, doesn't appear in a package
[12:36] <longwave> khobar: ok, that sounds about right then, but i don't use emacs so i can't help more i am afraid
[12:36] <Lamego> khobar, Go to synaptic, search for "php editor"
[12:36] <dv_> sethk, bad :|
[12:36] <Lamego> you have a lot of options
[12:36] <compilerwriter> I was afraid of that.  I am in the US and I have a business contact that is in Austaralia.  He has asked me to get skype as he has a hearing problem and it is actually easier for him to sit at his computer with headphones on and talk to me that way.  Anyone care to go to private conversation and help me get the damned thing installed. I am an ubuntu neophite.  I have been using it less than a week.  I have found the only
[12:36] <compilerwriter> you have to to a little bit more work sometimes.  I don't mind that. I love how fast my machine is working now.
[12:36] <Lamego> I personally never found emacs very friendly
[12:36] <qbert> how do i upgrade to mysql-common-4.1 using adept , if I just click install it gives me errror
[12:37] <dv_> sethk, also missing: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/computing/software/sol2docs/mr/man3cc4/fstream.3.html and generally the entire C++ standard library
[12:37] <ubuntu__> sethk, how can I enable usbnet support
[12:37] <sethk> khobar, I like emacs.  It does have a somewhat steep learning curve
[12:37] <longwave> qbert: you probably want mysql-client-4.1 or mysql-server-4.1 instead of just -common
[12:37] <khobar> lamego: does it have autofilling of php tags? :P
[12:37] <andresmujica> deezer i have asterisk
[12:37] <sethk> dv_, let me check those names; they are part of the compiler packages, not X, so hopefully...
[12:37] <qbert> longwave, it doesnt list mysql-server-4.1 as an option, do I need to do something to make that show up ?
[12:37] <dv_> uh, ok
[12:37] <pp> Hi, can anyone recommend a software for playing mp3 files which is available using apt-get install?
[12:37] <Lamego> compilerwriter, you can install it using easyubuntu: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/get.html
[12:38] <compilerwriter> Emacs is cool. It does have a steep learning curve though.  Back in the day it made C programming easy though.
[12:38] <qbert> i like emacs too , would never use aynthing else, though php-mode needs some work
[12:38] <sethk> dv_, fstream and friends are in:  libstdc++6-doc
[12:38] <compilerwriter> Thanks for the link lamego.
[12:38] <Lamego> pp, any of the sound players on ubuntu allows to play mp3 as long you install the proper plugins
[12:38] <Lamego> !!restricted

[12:38] <ubuntu__> pp, xmms
[12:38] <dv_> and in libstdc++6-4.0-doc? (I have this one installed)
[12:38] <pp> cheers folks
[12:39] <Paradoxx> has any1 here used gizmo-project?
[12:39] <sethk> ubuntu__, You probably have to do a modprobe with the kernel module name.  You said, I think, that it works with an older kernel.  boot that kernel, do lsmod, and note the modules
[12:39] <longwave> !info mysql-server-4.1
[12:39] <ubotu> Package mysql-server-41 does not exist in dapper
[12:39] <sethk> ubuntu__, then repeat with the new kernel, and find the modules loaded previously and not loaded now.
[12:39] <Lamego> khobar, I believe eclipse with the php plugin does, i am not sure
[12:39] <longwave> huh?
[12:39] <sethk> ubuntu__, one of them should be usbnet
[12:39] <longwave> oh wait it ignored the dot
[12:39] <khobar> ok gonna try emacs
[12:39] <longwave> qbert: that package is in universe
[12:39] <neuroe> hello
[12:39] <qbert> im new to ubuntu, what is universe ?
[12:39] <Paradoxx> !gizmo
[12:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gizmo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:39] <nzk> Chmod -v Chmod HELP!
[12:40] <dv_> sethk, it doesnt have to be solved *now*, I just think that these missing manpages may be bad for developers
[12:40] <sethk> qbert, a respository
[12:40] <qbert> !universe
[12:40] <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
[12:40] <sethk> dv_, oh, I agree.
[12:40] <sethk> dv_, the c++ ones, though, are at least available.  the X ones aren't in packages at all (at least many of them)
[12:40] <Khamael> is there an ubuntu how-to for setting the nvidia settings?
[12:40] <qbert> !easysource
[12:40] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:41] <Frankenstein> how can i play wma files in xmms?
[12:41] <MystaMax> I have SSHed onto a computer, and I'm trying to copy files back to the localhost, i typed scp FILENAME mystamax@hostname: /home/mystamax/FILENAME -- my first error message was that the permissions were too open? whats that mean?
[12:41] <pp> ubotu: cheers mate xmms rocks!! you can drag a directory containing seperate mp3s and it plays them althabetically!!!
[12:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cheers mate xmms rocks!! you can drag a directory containing seperate mp3s and it plays them althabetically!!! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:41] <Lamego> MystaMax, could you post the exact message ?
[12:42] <dv_> this is really weird. I have libstdc++6-4.0-doc installed, yet no ifstream manpage.
[12:42] <Lamego> dv_, do you have the development man pages installed ?
[12:42] <neuroe> ubontu: GKrellM
[12:42] <dv_> ah!
[12:42] <dv_> got it.
[12:42] <MystaMax> Lamego, sure here ya go: Permissions 0777 for 'config.ini' are too open. it is recommended that your private key files are NOT accessible by others. This private key will be ignored. bad permissions: ignore key: config.ini Enter passphrase for key 'config.ini':
[12:42] <dv_> the man pages all start with std:: :D
[12:42] <Lamego> dv_, sudo apt-get install manpages-dev
[12:43] <sethk> dv_, the file is part of the man page
[12:43] <neuroe> ubotu: GKrollM
[12:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about GKrollM - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:43] <pp> :-)
[12:43] <Kyral_Laptop> its GKrellM
[12:43] <sethk> dv_, what are you checking?  ifstream.3.gz is what I see
[12:43] <pcfreak_> I know it is possible to make it play WMA, you probably need restricted packages though, but if they have DRM, then it will not go, that is what I have understood...
[12:43] <dv_> thats why "man ifstream" didnt work: it has to be "man std::ifstream"
[12:43] <Lamego> MystaMax, the message is clear, config.ini should not be 777
[12:43] <sethk> dv_, in libstdc++6.4.0-doc
[12:43] <pcfreak_> if the WMA files have DRM
[12:43] <dv_> sethk, yeah
[12:44] <MystaMax> Lamego, I understand what its saying. I'm trying to put reasoning with it. It doesnt make sense
[12:44] <qbert> hmm i enabled the universe repositories, still no msyql-server4.1
[12:44] <krizzer> can anyone here help me install ubuntu?
[12:44] <Lamego> MystaMax, its rare to have a file which needs to be +rwx for everyone
[12:44] <MystaMax> Lamego, why can't i copy a file w/ 777 file permissions
[12:44] <neuroe> anyone want to help me get my GKrellM sound scope plug-in working? =] 
[12:44] <Lamego> MystaMax, why should you have a file with 777 on the first place  :) ?
[12:45] <krizzer> how do i install ubuntu to an already made fat32 partiton?
[12:45] <sethk> dv_, that's odd.  it is correct, but my listing of the files for the package doesn't show std:: in the name
[12:45] <qbert> do i need to disable some repositories to get mysql-server4.1 ?
[12:45] <Lamego> and, btw, is not any file, it is refering to those files as private key files
[12:45] <sethk> dv_, possibly updated for dapper?
[12:45] <Lamego> which should be protected
[12:45] <dv_> sethk, I guess so
[12:45] <qbert> im using kubuntu btw
[12:45] <neuroe> krizzer: have you tried the live cd yet?
[12:45] <krizzer> yes im on it right now
[12:45] <Lamego> krizzer, you can't install ubuntu to a fat partition
[12:45] <MystaMax> Lamego, thanks for your help... i'll change the permissions
[12:45] <sethk> dv_, it ought to default, or at least there should be a switch to default
[12:45] <ubuntu__> sethk, ok thnx, I'll try it
[12:45] <Lamego> you will need to change it to a linux fs
[12:45] <dv_> anyway, it should be mentioned in the wiki or the forums
[12:45] <sethk> dv_, true.
[12:46] <neuroe> fat sucks compaired to linux's partition format
[12:46] <sethk> dv_, we can write a script that, if man fails, it tries std::whatever
[12:46] <Lamego> MystaMax, if that file is only required by the user, make it 700
[12:46] <krizzer> ok, i have 3 partitions on my hard drive one is osx and then i made anothwer for ubuntu and another for stoarge, do i reformat the partiton i made for ubuntu
[12:46] <Deezzer> andresmuijca, r u there
[12:46] <MystaMax> Lamego, ok
[12:46] <brandon_> how can i add a gravis gamepad without restarting?
[12:46] <damian_> why brown
[12:46] <damian_> why not yellow
[12:46] <damian_> or blue
[12:46] <dv_> sethk, but not for ALL keywords :)
[12:46] <Deezzer> sorry, andresmujica..typo
[12:46] <damian_> why did the ubuntu people choose a brown theme
[12:46] <Lamego> damian_, earth theme
[12:46] <pcfreak_> hi there, I have no experience with software firewalls, but what wich is most recommendable?
[12:47] <damian_> Lamego: oh I thought it was a black theme
[12:47] <neuroe> because ubuntu is african and africans are brown
[12:47] <neuroe> damian
[12:47] <sethk> dv_, obviously it won't work for all keywords, but the overhead for trying it for all keywords would be miniscule
[12:47] <damian_> yeah that's what I thought
[12:47] <sethk> miniscule, even
[12:47] <davanger> ppl help me test my IceCast server and connect to http://fabtech.suroot.com:8000/stream.ogg let me know how it sounds and if the connection is stable -thanx
[12:47] <dv_> sethk, k
[12:47] <pcfreak_> what I ment to say was that I have little experience with software firewalls for linux
[12:48] <neuroe>  anyone want to help me get my GKrellM sound scope plug-in working? =]

[12:50] <jrib> does anyone know of a program that will let me overlay text on a pdf document while keeping the original pdf document intact?
[12:50] <neuroe> is it a good idea to throw questions in an irc chatroom and expect a response?
[12:51] <bruenig> better yet does anyone know how to print a pdf without printing it to postscript first, it always asks for the printer command but I don't know what it is
[12:51] <sethk> neuroe, only if you want an answer
[12:51] <Lamego> bruenig, lp ?
[12:51] <Jivemonkey> ubuntu is broken
[12:51] <Jivemonkey> too fragile
[12:51] <Jivemonkey> i've had to reinstall four times now!

[12:51] <Jivemonkey> and its only day two
[12:51] <sethk> neuroe, that's what happens here, anyway.  you ask
[12:51] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, if he doesnt fit you, dont use it :)
[12:51] <Jivemonkey> i want it!
[12:51] <ydnar_> what would be preventing sound from working when watching youtube videos?

[12:54] <neuroe> bruenig, is gkrellm obscure?

[12:55] <synic> heatxsink: compaq presario v2000
[12:55] <sethk> Jivemonkey, it means your user and group configuration is borked somehow
[12:55] <Lamego> sethk, he is joking, don't bother yourself
[12:55] <Jivemonkey> i'm not joking
[12:55] <Jivemonkey> im serious
[12:55] <Jivemonkey> how do i fix this
[12:56] <Jivemonkey> i just tried apt-get install gdm but that didnt work
[12:56] <Lamego> you are serious asking for Mark to help you ? give me a brek :)
[12:56] <Abjure> I'm a linux noob and just installed ubuntu and I dont have any internet can someone help me out?

[12:56] <krizzer> bruenig, it is saying unkown filesystem fat32
[12:56] <sethk> Jivemonkey, why would apt-get install gdm fix that problem?
[12:56] <synic> heatxsink: any way I can be sure from the cli?
[12:56] <Jivemonkey> sethk, i just tried that and it didnt work
[12:56] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, i was joking about the mark thing, yes
[12:56] <heatxsink> synic:  apt-get install bluez-utils
[12:56] <sethk> Jivemonkey, yes, I know, but why did you try it?
[12:56] <heatxsink> synic:  hciconfig
[12:56] <Jivemonkey> lamego told me to
[12:56] <sethk> Jivemonkey, it gave you a message about groups
[12:57] <Lamego> sethk, it was my recommentation, shouldn't the package configure try to add the gdm user ?
[12:57] <Jivemonkey> i have no idea what that means sethk
[12:57] <heatxsink> synic:  see if anything pops up
[12:57] <sethk> Lamego, oh, ok.
[12:57] <Jivemonkey> i assume my user group doesnt exist or something
[12:57] <heatxsink> i'm sure you could do a lspci, and lsusb
[12:57] <Lamego> sethk, first I told him to create the group, which he didn't
[12:57] <Jivemonkey> i dont know how
[12:57] <Jivemonkey> and what group
[12:57] <synic> heatxsink: hciconfig says nothing
[12:57] <sethk> Lamego, I was going to say the same thing

[12:57] <sethk> Jivemonkey, what group did it say in the error?
[12:57] <bruenig> krizzer, try it without the filesystem spec, sudo mount /dev/hdb3 ~/hdb3

[12:58] <Aranel> Quick question... LTS means that the Ubuntu Dapper repositories will be updated for three years, correct? So it would continue to have the newest versions of software like GNOME, Firefox, MPlayer, etc. until those three years are up?
[12:58] <Jivemonkey> 1 failure since last login
[12:58] <sethk> Jivemonkey, I think possibly one of your file systems didn't mount
[12:59] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, did the system mount your partitions during boot ?
[12:59] <Jivemonkey> id: cannot find name for group ID 1000
[12:59] <Jivemonkey> i dont know
[12:59] <bruenig> krizzel, I forgot that it wouldn't verify fat32, but I think it should still mount
[12:59] <Jivemonkey> how can i tell
[12:59] <jrib> Aranel: no, I believe you will only get security updates
[12:59] <sethk> Jivemonkey, try this:  cat /etc/group
[12:59] <Aranel> Oh, I see
[12:59] <Abjure> Hello?
[12:59] <Abjure> Can someone help me out?
[12:59] <Jivemonkey> blank sethk
[12:59] <Lamego> did you get an error message during boot ? Like unable to mount filesystems ?
[12:59] <Aranel> And Edgy will not be a LTS release, right?
[12:59] <Jivemonkey> no output
[12:59] <sethk> Brokenstein, I'm still waiting for your paste to come up
[12:59] <dj_gohan> sup
[12:59] <jrib> Aranel: but you can always upgrade to the next release every 6 months
[12:59] <due> Abjure: Did you have your computer connected to the internet during install?
[12:59] <Sanne> Aranel: don't think so. It means you'll get security and grave bug fixes, but ubuntu releases are stable, meaning no new versions.
[12:59] <dj_gohan> anyone with good lilo knowledge
[12:59] <synic> heatxsink: nothing, but I see some info in dmesg that looks promising.
[12:59] <Abjure> due: yes
[12:59] <jrib> Aranel: correct, edgy is not planned to be LTS
[01:00] <Abjure> wait
[01:00] <jrib> !lts
[01:00] <ubotu> lts is Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[01:00] <Aranel> Okay, I was just unsure. Thanks!
[01:00] <txx2> Hello, I'm currently reporting a bug in ubuntu, as there is no GUI for ndiswrapper. I have discussed this with other members and they pointed me to submit to launchpad to see how it goes through. There is already a package for ndiswrapper in the repositories which is stable (ndisgtk). Though, I am having trouble. At what program should I put it under in launchpad?
[01:00] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, check the ouput from the "mount" command
[01:00] <Abjure> due: do you mean that jack is connected to the ethernet port?
[01:00] <due> Abjure: Yeah.
[01:00] <Abjure> due: yes then it wsas
[01:00] <Brokenstein> sethk: ok thx its there i just checked
[01:00] <Abjure> was*
[01:00] <Jivemonkey> it says a bunch of stuff Lamego what am i looking for
[01:00] <due> Abjure: Check the "Networking" program under System->Administration.
[01:00] <heatxsink> synic:  what does it say?
[01:00] <bruenig> !info ndisgtk
[01:00] <ubotu> ndisgtk: graphical frontend for ndiswrapper (installation of Windows WiFi drivers). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 12 kB, installed size 120 kB
[01:00] <bruenig> hardly
[01:00] <Abjure> Due: ok im there
[01:00] <Jivemonkey> /dev/hda1
[01:00] <sethk> Brokenstein, I'm sure it is there, it just didn't come up here, which is odd.
[01:00] <Lamego> you are looking for your linux partitions mounted, like /
[01:00] <synic> heatxsink: brb, phone
[01:00] <Brokenstein> heh
[01:01] <Jivemonkey> i see 'em
[01:01] <Jivemonkey> dev and sys
[01:01] <due> Abjure: anything in them?
[01:01] <bruenig> txx2, I am currently reporting an incompetent user on launchpad
[01:01] <Lamego> do an ls -la /etc/group
[01:01] <Lamego> and paste  the result
[01:01] <Abjure> Due: ethernet connection (The interface eth0 is active)
[01:01] <jrib> does anyone know of a program that will let me overlay text on a pdf document while keeping the original pdf document intact?
[01:01] <sethk> Jivemonkey, what happened when you did   cat /etc/group ?
[01:01] <bruenig> txx2, you need to enable the universe repository, that is probably where your problem is
[01:01] <txx2> bruenig,  I do not like people being offencive. therefore I am not ignoring you.
[01:01] <due> Abjure: Then you would appear to be connected to the ethernet.
[01:01] <heatxsink> synic:  according to this site ... http://www.tux.org/~peterw/v2000/ it should tell you how to configure it
[01:01] <Jivemonkey> sethk, no output
[01:02] <Aranel> Another question. What kernel version will Edgy use, and will it still support the BCM43xx driver?
[01:02] <Abjure> due: right but i cant seem to go to any websites
[01:02] <sethk> Brokenstein, have you done    apt-get install build-essential   ?
[01:02] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, the output is:  apt-get dm gdm installg sudo cat /etc/group install mount
[01:02] <dubious> hey ubuntu folks
[01:02] <due> Abjure: pull up the commandline and ping google
[01:02] <bruenig> txx2, don't come in here saying there is a bug, at least ask if somebody knows how to fix it before claiming that there is something wrong with ubuntu, especially when it deals with package availability as that is hardly a bug even if it were true
[01:02] <krizzer> what is a swap partition?
[01:02] <Abjure> due: unknown host google.com
[01:02] <sethk> Jivemonkey, nothing?  Not a message saying "file not found", but literally nothing?
[01:02] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, erm ? that cannot be the ouput from ls -la /etc/group !
[01:02] <dubious> can you recommend any good websites for a newb like me to learn the finer points of the command line?
[01:02] <Jivemonkey> sethk, yeah
[01:02] <jrib> !cli > dubious
[01:02] <Brokenstein> sethk: no i can try now
[01:03] <sethk> Jivemonkey, do ls -l /etc/group
[01:03] <sethk> Jivemonkey, tell us the size of the file
[01:03] <Abjure> due: unknown host google.com
[01:03] <Lamego> dubious, google.com: linux tutorial
[01:03] <due> Abjure: it wouldn't appear to've connected then, or it doesn't have any connectivity (ie, lan, but no net)
[01:03] <txx2> bruenig,  if you would like to discuss this, feel free to here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236168
[01:03] <sethk> Brokenstein, it includes some stuff you need like the compiler, make, etc., etc.
[01:03] <Jivemonkey> 0
[01:03] <bruenig> krizzer, it kind of acts as extra RAM, it is slower but for stuff that is kind of running in the background not being used often, it will be put on swap so as to free up your other RAM for other things you are doing, at least that is how it was explained to me
[01:03] <Jivemonkey> or 757
[01:03] <Teatherwind> krizzer:  it is where the system will keep temp files in memory.   It is often used if there is not enough ram to accomplish the job that you have start.
[01:03] <jrib> Aranel: #ubuntu+1 is dedicated to edgy, maybe someone there can help you out
[01:03] <Jivemonkey> whichever one of those is size
[01:03] <bruenig> !info ndisgtk
[01:03] <ubotu> ndisgtk: graphical frontend for ndiswrapper (installation of Windows WiFi drivers). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 12 kB, installed size 120 kB
[01:03] <Aranel> Thanks, jrib
[01:04] <Abjure> due: what should i do?
[01:04] <bruenig> it is there txx2
[01:04] <Jivemonkey> -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 757 [date] 
[01:04] <bruenig> look
[01:04] <Brokenstein> i get E: Couldn't find package build
[01:04] <krizzer> can the swap partion also be used to store files?
[01:04] <bruenig> i see it in my terminal when i do apt-cache search ndisgtk
[01:04] <sethk> txx2, it may be a desirable feature, but you won't get anywhere calling it a bug.
[01:04] <gumpish> I need some guidance with the dhcp daemon. It seems my server doesn't send a DHCPNAK when a client requests an address that isn't in the allowed range.
[01:04] <nalioth> bruenig: please be civil
[01:04] <bruenig> txx2, you need to enable the universe repository
[01:04] <sethk> Brokenstein, build-essential
[01:04] <Hoxzer_> Seed seed seed
[01:04] <txx2> ubotu,  yes, this is the ecellent GUI for ndiswrapper, but it is not in ubuntu by default. I feel it is needed, that is all.
[01:04] <nzk> What does it mean when my diarrhea looks like chocolate milk?
[01:04] <Jivemonkey> any clues?
[01:04] <bruenig> I just installed it txx2
[01:04] <gumpish> nzk: you're drinking too much chocolate milk
[01:04] <NickGarvey> Abjure: http://72.14.207.99
[01:04] <due> Abjure: Select it, check the properties.
[01:04] <krizzer> it means choc. milk is coming out of ur ass
[01:04] <NickGarvey> Abjure: try that
[01:05] <bruenig> works great
[01:05] <nzk> No like my tummy hurt and chocolate milk - like diarrhea shot out of my ass
[01:05] <Brokenstein> yuk yuk ya its working now
[01:05] <neuroe> it means you have tasty tasty ass juice
[01:05] <txx2> bruenig,  it is not that I am having difficulty installing it, I already have it, but I feel it would be brilliant if it were included in edgy eft for the next release.
[01:05] <DBO> txx2, so ubotu is a bot...
[01:05] <Abjure> due: ok im there
[01:05] <Brokenstein> ik ill start over and see if that fixed my problems
[01:05] <sethk> txx2, what do you mean "by default"?   you can specify it on install.  If you use a lazy install such as desktop, where you don't select anything at all, don't complain because you have to add a few packages manually.
[01:05] <CyDrive> Can someone help i downloaded javba off the main site and installed it but i cant seem to get it to work
[01:05] <due> Abjure: I've no idea how your network is set up, play around in there, see what you get.
[01:05] <bruenig> txx2, you are requesting that it be added to edgy, how is that in anyway related to a bug?
[01:06] <nzk> What does it mean when my diarrhea looks like chocolate milk?
[01:06] <sethk> Brokenstein, sounds encouraging.
[01:06] <txx2> sethk,  We are lookign to aim for new users, aren't we?
[01:06] <Abjure> due: sigh ok
[01:06] <Jivemonkey> the file size is 0 sethk and Lamego
[01:06] <txx2> bruenig,  I was suggested by members of the forum to submit to launch pad, I am not an alien of which gets knowledge out of thin air.
[01:06] <Brokenstein> should i have already had build-essential and i messed up somewhere?
[01:06] <bruenig> txx2, you came in here saying you were filing a bug report on launchpad, is that true or not?
[01:06] <bruenig> how is it a bug?
[01:06] <sethk> txx2, you can't say something is "missing" because it is installed with some install options and not installed with others.
[01:07] <nalioth> bruenig: launchpad bugs can be discussed in #ubuntu-offtopic with txx2
[01:07] <sethk> txx2, what you are trying to say (I hope) is that it would be nice if it is installed with the _default_ options.
[01:07] <CyDrive> can someone help me with java please
[01:07] <Abjure> due: i connected to a router if that helps
[01:08] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, you have truncated your file, you will need to restore the file or to reinstall your system
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> aaack
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> !
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> how can i restore it
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> are there backups somewhere?
[01:08] <bruenig> (18:00:11) txx2: Hello, I'm currently reporting a bug in ubuntu, as there is no GUI for ndiswrapper. I have discussed this with other members and they pointed me to submit to launchpad to see how it goes through. There is already a package for ndiswrapper in the repositories which is stable (ndisgtk). Though, I am having trouble. At what program should I put it under in launchpad?
[01:08] <bruenig> (sorry nalioth, I am done)
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> i never messedw with that file i swear
[01:08] <txx2> bruenig,  of course it is true, but I feel it is a bug. Have you seen #1 bug?.. it's a bit of a comedic one on launch pad, it reffers to the situation with closed source operating systems, specifically microsft. sethk  Thank you for telling me this, I shall try other areas inwhich to suggest this implimentation. sethk Indeed, that is what I did say after I realized it was not the best of ideas to submit to launchpad as a bug :),
[01:08] <Brokenstein> hey i used xubuntu before and xfce supports this clipman plugin... is there a similar app for gnome?
[01:08] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, if do to many questions about your own system !
[01:08] <Jivemonkey> come again?
[01:08] <Lamego> do you have any backup of your own files ?
[01:08] <sethk> Jivemonkey, it's just a text file; the thing is, how did you lose it, and what else did you lose?
[01:09] <Jivemonkey> no i didnt back that file up
[01:09] <Jivemonkey> i probably lost a ton of stuff, how come!
[01:09] <Jivemonkey> i turned off the pc without shutting down
[01:09] <Lamego> try: sudo ls -la /etc/group-
[01:10] <Jivemonkey> blank no output
[01:10] <Jivemonkey> Lamego,
[01:10] <sethk> Lamego, good idea, if group- exists.
[01:10] <jrib> does anyone know of a linux equivalent for the mac tool "formulate"?  formulate allows one to overlay text over pdf documents
[01:10] <Jivemonkey> if i do it without sudo
[01:10] <Jivemonkey> i get: -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 757 [date] 
[01:11] <Jivemonkey> does that shed any light?
[01:11] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, why are you telling that you have a 0 on the size ? 757 should be the size on ls  -la
[01:11] <sethk> Jivemonkey, no.  It isn't possible to get what you pasted without sudo and to get nothing with sudo, but we'll ignore that for the moment.
[01:11] <Jivemonkey> oh i didnt know
[01:11] <Jivemonkey> i promise hold i'll screen capture
[01:11] <sethk> Lamego, I think he's lost translation of user numbers to names and group numbers to names
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, I think the 0 is group root
[01:12] <Lamego> sethk, i know, that 0 would be the group, and 757 the size
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, sorry, only group names, not user names
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, right
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, and, in fact, the same with /etc/group
[01:12] <Lamego> so the group file should have some contents
[01:12] <eyequeue> -rw------- 1 root root 1134 2006-08-14 07:30 /etc/group-
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, try:  sudo cat /etc/group
[01:12] <neuroe> test
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, yes, but from what you pasted earlier, so should group
[01:12] <sethk> Lamego, sorry
[01:12] <Lamego> np
[01:12] <sethk> Jivemonkey,  yes, but from what you pasted earlier, so should group
[01:13] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, sudo nano /etc/group
[01:13] <Jivemonkey> ok
[01:13] <azureal> can someone think of a file type that is colored white by default?
[01:13] <sethk> Lamego, I think he had a 757 size on /etc/group before, and I read it too quickly and misinterpreted the 0 as the length.
[01:13] <Jivemonkey> nothing, no output
[01:13] <sethk> azureal, KKK?
[01:13] <eyequeue> how would it have become 644?
[01:13] <azureal> what's kkk?
[01:13] <sethk> azureal, never mind, just a dumb joke, sorry
[01:13] <azureal> and don't go racist on me...
[01:14] <azureal> yep
[01:14] <sethk> Jivemonkey, when you run an editor, you cannot get "nothing, no output"
[01:14] <Lamego> I still thing he is playing with us, no one would corrupt its group files without having any idea how
[01:14] <Lamego> think
[01:14] <Aphex_Twin> can you tell me an easy way to configure my PCM out as a capture device?
[01:14] <eyequeue> Lamego, plus, how would it have become 644?
[01:14] <Jivemonkey> sethk, i'll show you hold
[01:14] <Jivemonkey> for screenshot
[01:14] <sethk> Lamego, if so, he deliberately put 0 in the ls -l instead of group root.  ???
[01:14] <Lamego> eyequeue, my /etc/group is 644 :)
[01:15] <Lamego> ah
[01:15] <Lamego> you mean group-
[01:15] <sethk> group is usually -rw-r--r--
[01:15] <sethk> both, actually
[01:15] <Lamego> not really :P
[01:15] <eyequeue> sethk, -rw------- 1 root root 1134 2006-08-14 07:30 /etc/group-
[01:15] <Lamego> -rw------- 1 root root 786 2006-08-14 22:14 /etc/group-
[01:15] <Jivemonkey> http://pastehere.com/?hfkqiq
[01:16] <Drako60> alright, i have a major problem here, i did apt-get dist-upgrade, and now the new kernel will not boot, and i can't find any of my audio devices, alsa fails, arts fails, xine fails, gsstreamer fails, all of them fail to find a compatable device
[01:16] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, sethk, eyequeue : http://pastehere.com/?hfkqiq
[01:16] <sethk> eyequeue, I'm on breezy, mine is rw-r--r--
[01:16] <Jivemonkey> see?
[01:16] <ese5> what do you need to use WPA on a default install?
[01:16] <sethk> Jivemonkey, that isn't a zero length file.   do this:   hexdump -C /etc/group   and paste the result to the bot
[01:17] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, how are you here?
[01:17] <khobar> hmm i Installed emacs but can't  find php autofilling..althou got php-mode
[01:17] <Lamego> jimcooncat, your sudo doesnt seem to be working, the apt-get install didn't generated any output !!!
[01:17] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, i'm running ubuntu in parallels
[01:17] <argument> khobar, use vim instead
[01:17] <Lamego> oops, i mean Jivemonkey
[01:17] <khobar> he atleast mark tags...
[01:17] <argument> khobar, i don't say that because of snobbery, i say that because of PHP
[01:17] <khobar> vim?
[01:17] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, i know!
[01:17] <Jivemonkey> its' all messed up
[01:17] <sethk> khobar, you'll have to look at the docs for the php-mode.  Most likely you have to generate an index file to get the feature to work.
[01:17] <argument> khobar, yeah, IMO vim is better... i used emacs for about 5 years, then i switched to vim
[01:17] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, so why didnt you told in the first place !??!? when you were asking you do type a lot of sudo commands ?
[01:17] <avis> this command is not causing my destination hard drive to activate
[01:18] <Lamego> when we
[01:18] <avis> cd /media/usbdisk/media && tar -cf - . | cd /home/avis/media && tar xvfp -
[01:18] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, what is that? -Jivemonkey- VERSION xchat 2.6.0-2 Windows XP [Intel /1.99GHz]   i'm smelling something wring
[01:18] <argument> khobar, basic reasons: it's faster, more to the point and it has better PHP support. basic problem: it's hard to learn
[01:18] <Leng> Does anyone have ubuntu set up so that the hostname is retrieved via dhcp?
[01:18] <argument> khobar, try Kate
[01:18] <sethk> khobar, argument I wouldn't say either is "better",  I still use emacs for some things even though I use vim more often
[01:18] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, parallels is a virtual machine
[01:18] <khobar> aaaa....
[01:18] <khobar> :P
[01:18] <linuxd00d> Leng: yup
[01:18] <Jivemonkey> like vmware
[01:18] <rattboi> parallels is a virtual machine?
[01:18] <khobar> ok I think i gonna go to sleep :P
[01:18] <argument> sethk, sure, but for PHP emacs sucks :(
[01:18] <argument> sethk, mmm-mode is ass
[01:18] <Jivemonkey> like vmware
[01:18] <rattboi> ok
[01:18] <Lamego> i am going to sleep, this guy is nuts
[01:18] <rattboi> I thought they were hardware virtualizers
[01:18] <khobar> so may ppl and so many programs recomended by everyone :P
[01:18] <SeNtiX> hi
[01:18] <rattboi> maybe thats the same thing
[01:19] <SeNtiX> can i ask a question?
[01:19] <Leng> linuxd00d: How did you do it?
[01:19] <rattboi> when I think virtual machine, I think Java
[01:19] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, i did i said no output
[01:19] <argument> khobar, on *nix i would choose either vim or Kate
[01:19] <eyequeue> !ask > SeNtiX
[01:19] <sethk> Jivemonkey, did you paste the output I asked you for?
[01:19] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, you didnt said that about apt-get
[01:19] <Lamego> a cat can have a void output, if the file is empty
[01:19] <linuxd00d> Leng: it done it for me, it should just do it for you
[01:19] <SeNtiX> ./setup.sh: line 143: 21716 Aborted "$setup" "$@" 2>>$NULL
[01:19] <Lamego> an apt-get can't
[01:19] <SeNtiX> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[01:19] <argument> khobar, as far as an editor goes that's my stance, but there certainly are other editors to choose from... just don't use emacs for PHP
[01:19] <Jivemonkey> sethk, its a bunch of nulls
[01:19] <SeNtiX> any ideas?
[01:19] <Jivemonkey> hold i'll paste
[01:19] <Lamego> sethk, sudo is not executing the commands as expected
[01:20] <argument> khobar, gvim technically
[01:20] <Lamego> sudo is sudonothing
[01:20] <Leng> linuxd00d: It makes me set a hostname during install and I cannot seem to get rid of that hostname.
[01:20] <khobar> argument: hmm ok ...but does vim has autofiling of php, html tags? :P
[01:20] <sethk> Lamego, I asked him for a dump, he doesn't need sudo for that
[01:20] <khobar> I'm kinda lazy sometimes :P
[01:20] <argument> khobar, yes it does, it's called ins-completion and it rocks
[01:20] <sethk> Jivemonkey, do the hexdump -C for both /etc/group and /etc/group-
[01:20] <Jivemonkey> pasting now
[01:20] <Lamego> sethk, well, it seems cat isn't working either
[01:21] <sethk> Lamego, I'm not sure.  if hexdump is showing the file as all zeroes, cat would appear to do nothing
[01:21] <Jivemonkey> http://pastehere.com/?ybvwvd
[01:21] <jrattner1> Has anyone synced a Treo 650 or 700 in dapper here?
[01:21] <Jivemonkey> sethk, http://pastehere.com/?ybvwvd
[01:21] <eyequeue> ls -la is producing a different format output?  isn't that odd to anyone else?
[01:21] <Leng> linuxd00d: I am trying to get it to grab a hostname offered by our dhcp server instead of using that set name.
[01:21] <SeNtiX> any ideas eyequeue?
[01:21] <linuxd00d> Leng: why do you want to remove the hostname, all it is, is the name of your machine
[01:21] <Lamego> ok, file is all zeros :P
[01:21] <khobar> argument: vim you say is it in standard pagaes ( those mose common ) so i can install it directly from sinapsis?
[01:21] <argument> khobar, vim is part of ubuntu by default :)
[01:21] <khobar> *Synaptic
[01:21] <sethk> Jivemonkey, and for /etc/group-?  also all zeroes?
[01:21] <argument> khobar, gvim is not, but vim is, anyway you'll want vim 7.0
[01:21] <Leng> linuxd00d: This is for other users. This way they can say, "I have trouble with dhcp102" instead of that set name.
[01:22] <argument> khobar, ubuntu 6.06 LTS only has vim 6.4
[01:22] <Jivemonkey> sethk, that was for /etc/group
[01:22] <Lamego> I would bet the VM software caused FS corruption
[01:22] <sethk> Jivemonkey, one thing you can do is to force an fsck on the root partition and reboot.  You do that from the command line with  shutdown -F now
[01:22] <khobar> argument: so i can find it in pacages or I have installed it by default?
[01:22] <Lamego> he did mention he already reinstalled the system some times on the last days
[01:22] <sethk> Lamego, sounds that way, yes
[01:22] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, that was related to xgl and compiz
[01:22] <linuxd00d> Leng: ok bear with me for a sec
[01:22] <Jivemonkey> ok i'll try the shutdown thing
[01:22] <eyequeue> SeNtiX no
[01:23] <Lamego> Jivemonkey, you are playing with xgl and compiz on a virtualized machine ?
[01:23] <Leng> linuxd00d: Thanks. =)
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> i keep clicking on the screenshot trying to type in commands
[01:23] <sethk> Lamego, I'm telling him to run shutdown -F to force an fsck on the root file system.  It isn't likely to fix it, but it's conceivable.
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, i was
[01:23] <neuroe> hello
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> i cant shutdown like that sethk
[01:23] <Lamego> parallels supports video 3d accel ?
[01:23] <Drako60> alright, i have a major problem here, i did apt-get dist-upgrade to dapper, and now the new kernel will not boot, and i can't find any of my audio devices, alsa fails, arts fails, xine fails, gsstreamer fails, all of them fail to find a compatable device
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> it wants me to be root
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> then i try it with sudo and it fails like sudo has been failing
[01:23] <Jivemonkey> i cant log in with su
[01:23] <linuxd00d> Leng: come to #linuxd00d
[01:24] <Jivemonkey> it says, id: cannot find name for group ID 0
[01:24] <SeNtiX> anyine has any idea bout this error?
[01:24] <SeNtiX> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[01:24] <Jivemonkey> Lamego, probably not
[01:24] <argument> khobar, would you care to join me in private message?
[01:25] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, with 644, you should be able to cat /etc/group
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> its empty
[01:25] <ese5> can anyone help me get wpa going?
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> whatever it is
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> i type cat /etc/group and it just puts up a new prompt
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> root@triton:/#
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> whoa, i'm root!
[01:25] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, it says it is 757 bytes long
[01:25] <Jivemonkey> all null bytes
[01:26] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, wc /etc/group
[01:26] <sethk> Jivemonkey, that's expected when the file contains only zeroes
[01:26] <sethk> eyequeue, it's 757 bytes of zero
[01:26] <Khamael> does 64-bit ubuntu affect PDA`s?
[01:26] <Jivemonkey> 0 0 757 /etc/group
[01:26] <ubuntu_> hla
[01:26] <sethk> Khamael, it vaporizes them
[01:26] <ubuntu_> hola
[01:26] <ubuntu_> q
[01:26] <Jivemonkey> it cant find group 0
[01:26] <ubuntu_> te pasa
[01:27] <Jivemonkey> group id: 0
[01:27] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, wc /etc/group-
[01:27] <ubuntu_> :(
[01:27] <HeathenDan> how do i create password protected zip/rar/7z files in ubuntu? (gui way preferred, but cli is ok too)
[01:27] <argument> khobar, you might like PHPEclipse too
[01:27] <ubuntu_> hola
[01:27] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, 0 0 757 /etc/group
[01:27] <argument> khobar, http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/2006/07/31/small-how-to-vim-70-running-on-ubuntu-dapper/
[01:27] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, wc /etc/group- <---
[01:27] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, this is what that command tells me:
[01:27] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, 0 0 757 /etc/group
[01:27] <sethk> Jivemonkey, it isn't going to find group 0, your group file is clobbered.
[01:27] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, wc /etc/group- <---- note the dash
[01:27] <ubuntu_> hi all
[01:27] <Jivemonkey> oh
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> same
[01:28] <ubuntu_> is mi first time with ubuntu
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> eyequeue, 0 0 757 /etc/group-
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> what groups should be in there
[01:28] <sethk> Jivemonkey, wc isn't going to help, neither will anything else.  I think if you edit the file with vi it will show the nulls, but that doesn't help us, we know the file is full of nulls.
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> how do i get a new groups file
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> i never added any special groups
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> unless a program did
[01:28] <sethk> Jivemonkey, there are 56 groups, at least in my breezy
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> whoa
[01:28] <Jivemonkey> send me your groups file
[01:28] <sethk> Jivemonkey, many programs do.  If you are in dapper, get a group file from dapper
[01:29] <Jivemonkey> oh crap
[01:29] <sethk> Jivemonkey, mine is from breezy.
[01:29] <ubuntu_> no
[01:29] <eyequeue> my group and group_ are not identical at all
[01:29] <capnchicken> I have ubuntu server installed, and I want to take out the video card I had during the install and run off the the one on the motherboard so I have an extra video card around if I need it. Would I encounter any problems or do I need to edit some config files first?
[01:29] <sethk> Jivemonkey, unless you are running breezy, don't use mine.
[01:29] <eyequeue> my group and group- are not identical at all
[01:29] <Jivemonkey> someone please send me a group file
[01:29] <sethk> eyequeue, they aren't supposed to be
[01:29] <Jivemonkey> i'm using the latest one from the website
[01:29] <khobar> argument: but it seems like i got vim 7.0 but it's werid :P
[01:29] <gr33npho3nix> anybody got a suggestion if nm-applet isn't claim any network connections, but they are active and used
[01:29] <sethk> eyequeue, group- is the previous version of group
[01:29] <eyequeue> sethk, so how did his end up so?
[01:29] <Jivemonkey> maybe i'll just reinstall the dumb thing
[01:29] <Jivemonkey> blah
[01:29] <sethk> eyequeue, when group is changed, group is copied to group- before the change
[01:29] <argument> khobar, well whatever man
[01:29] <gr33npho3nix> i'd like to wane my dependency on my scripts and use nm-applet
[01:29] <argument> khobar, inside the terminal type 'vimtutor'
[01:29] <Masqy> hi all, is the driver "ati" (which is used for my "ATI Technologies, Inc. 3D Rage IIC (AGP)" card uses the restricted modules?
[01:30] <sethk> eyequeue, I think lamego is correct and his VM software corrupted his file system
[01:30] <Drako60> alright, i have a major problem here, i did apt-get dist-upgrade to dapper, and now the new kernel will not boot, and i can't find any of my audio devices, alsa fails, arts fails, xine fails, gsstreamer fails, all of them fail to find a compatable device.
[01:30] <argument> khobar, that'll teach you the basics of vim, as i said, it's hard to learn, but if you were into emacs i'm sure you'll have no problem learning the keybindings
[01:30] <Masqy> It does not appear on the package description in Synaptic
[01:30] <sethk> eyequeue, something corrupted it, that's incontravertable
[01:30] <Jivemonkey> it must have happened when i shut the vm down without shutting ubuntu down
[01:30] <eyequeue> sethk, two separate events are implied though, which seems odd
[01:31] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, i was going to suggest cping group- to group, but don't bother
[01:31] <khobar> argument: well i just installed ubuntu 2 day's ago and tring to learn a hell big bunch of many thing :P
[01:31] <Jivemonkey> why not
[01:31] <argument> khobar, yes, understandable
[01:31] <Jivemonkey> lets do it
[01:31] <khobar> installed emacs to have some easy editor
[01:31] <capnchicken> Does ubuntu recognize when hardware hasd been removed or are there config files that need to be edited first?
[01:31] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, because it is also useless
[01:31] <sethk> eyequeue, if /etc/group and /etc/group- are being changed, and it screws up, it isn't that unlikely that both are screwed up
[01:32] <khobar> but can't find this autofill :P
[01:32] <argument> khobar, the vim tutorial is not hard though, in fact reading the vim tutorial will probably be one of the easiest things you "learn" about linux in general
[01:32] <Jivemonkey> its zero bytes too
[01:32] <Jivemonkey> i just hex dumped it
[01:32] <Jivemonkey> err, full of null bytes rather
[01:32] <argument> khobar, if you want an easy editor use Kate man
[01:32] <sethk> khobar, whatever else it may be, emacs is not easy
[01:32] <sethk> Jivemonkey, zero is correct.
[01:32] <argument> sethk, i think he means normal mode editor
[01:32] <khobar> ok gonna try kate tommorow
[01:32] <ese5> is there no WPA option in the gnome network manager?
[01:32] <sethk> Jivemonkey, null is ambiguous
[01:32] <sethk> argument, ok, but still, I wouldn't call it easy.
[01:32] <khobar> hmm vimtutor is not working
[01:32] <Jivemonkey> thanks for tryiing to help sethk and eyequeue
[01:32] <argument> sethk, hehehe, sure me neither... heck i'd consider emacs more dificult than vim
[01:33] <Jivemonkey> i'm off to reinstall
[01:33] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, typically it's valid, if slightly outdated
[01:33] <sethk> Jivemonkey, try fsck on the root file system, which probably won't help but won't hurt.  when it dies, get a copy of somebody's group file
[01:33] <argument> khobar, join #vim for all your vim questiosn
[01:33] <sethk> Jivemonkey, I routinely back up after an installation:  /etc and /boot
[01:33] <Jivemonkey> i bet all sorts of stuff is messed up
[01:33] <khobar> ok
[01:33] <Jivemonkey> ok i'll do that from now on
[01:33] <Jivemonkey> thats good to know
[01:33] <sethk> Jivemonkey, it's quite possible that other stuff is messed up, no way to tell
[01:34] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, do you have a separate /home partition?
[01:34] <Jivemonkey> no
[01:34] <Jivemonkey> should I?
[01:34] <Jivemonkey> how big should it be
[01:34] <compilerwriter> well I got skype installed now I need to try it with someone to see if I have the sound and microphone set up.
[01:34] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, consider making one at reinstall :)
[01:34] <khobar> ok gonna try it tommorow ..I'm off too bed
[01:34] <nikin> hy
[01:34] <sethk> Jivemonkey, I don't believe a separate /home partition helps
[01:34] <khobar> thx all for aid
[01:34] <sethk> compilerwriter, what?  I can't hear you.
[01:34] <nikin> i need a good smbclient
[01:34] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, this way, a reinstall won't lose all your personal data :)
[01:34] <Jivemonkey> how big should it be
[01:35] <Jivemonkey> really what sucks is all the programs i have to get again
[01:35] <Jivemonkey> and configuration
[01:35] <Jivemonkey> like how the mouse should move
[01:35] <compilerwriter> sethk funny
[01:35] <Xappe> compilerwriter: just call Skype Test Call: echo123
[01:35] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, as for how large, du -hcs /home, should give you an idea of how much "stuff" you accumulate, give a bit of breathing room past that value
[01:35] <compilerwriter> thanks.
[01:35] <Jivemonkey> ok
[01:35] <UBN2> ayyyye
[01:36] <nikin> the most important feature i need is to play mp3 files without copying first to my computer.. Totem can manage that as a player, but i need a client what does not try to save the file, but to stat the associated program
[01:36] <nikin> and nautilus is not good
[01:36] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, example, if you accumulate videos, it will be large, if you write two text files, small, heh
[01:36] <Jivemonkey> i use my computer for porn only
[01:36] <Jivemonkey> thats a joke, dont ban me
[01:36] <linuxd00d> is there anybody here with networking knowledge
[01:37] <eyequeue> Jivemonkey, in the true spirit of the intarwebs ;)
[01:37] <UBN2> guys i was pointed to this server + room .... in the hope that i might get some answers ... :P  can anyone give me a good link for setting up an FTP server on my ubuntu box?  i basically just run a straight server install ... no gui ....
[01:37] <Bensel> So, erm, I've managed to accidentally rm /etc/init.d/rc... does anyone have the original Breezy one? :)
[01:37] <eyequeue> !anyone > linuxd00d
[01:37] <UBN2> have just spent 5 hours pulling my hair out over umm .... proftpd without much luck
[01:38] <CyDrive> Can someone help me im trying to get frostwire to work i installed java like it said but it still wont work
[01:38] <eyequeue> UBN2, do you have a preferred ftpd in mind?
[01:38] <sethk> UBN2, well, it's time you started pulling your hair over some other program.
[01:38] <UBN2> well ... i was trying to use the most commonly recommended ... proftpd ... but only had bad results
[01:39] <capnchicken> is there anybody in here that has done hardware changes while running linux, without reinstalling?
[01:39] <UBN2> should be pretty straight forward - anyone recommned an alternative ?  or a good guide to setting up  proftpd
[01:39] <sethk> UBN2, do you want the simplest?
[01:39] <Brokenstein> im still learning how to compile from source and im stumped on an error  can anyone take a look? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/769402
[01:39] <eyequeue> UBN2, if you can edit text files, it should be ... i don't use ftp myself, sorry
[01:40] <diablo`> How can i know the date my ubuntu was first installed?
[01:40] <UBN2> yeah whatever is the simplest - its merely so i can upload my webpage files to /var/www/
[01:40] <Masqy> which graphics adapter would you recommend, which is not in restricted modules?
[01:40] <eyequeue> UBN2, "scp" should handle that, no need for ftp :)
[01:40] <CyDrive> can someone help me get frostwire working?
[01:40] <capnchicken> UBN2 this guide has somethings on setting up proftp http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06
[01:40] <UBN2> scp?
[01:41] <sethk> UBN2, if you don't care about security, the wu ftp server is easy.  but why use ftp at all?
[01:41] <UBN2> yeah i've seen most of googles first five page results from most keywords one can think of
[01:41] <sethk> UBN2, scp is secure copy, part of openssh
[01:41] <eyequeue> UBN2, "scp index.html hostname:/var/www/" for example
[01:41] <cynical> cydrive: you try using automatix?
[01:41] <CyDrive> cynical: im not sure what that is
[01:41] <jrib> is it possible for me to run http://adlr.info/?Formulate on linux?  Is there a wine for mac applications?
[01:41] <sethk> UBN2, if you need to do it from a windows box, install the cygwin package on the windows box.  then you can use ssh, sftp, and scp among your boxes.
[01:41] <cynical> cydrive: ok one sec
[01:42] <eyequeue> UBN2, if you're not sending from a *nix box, there are scp clients for other platforms (pscp.exe from putty)
[01:42] <Xappe> UBN2, sethk or install winSCP in windows
[01:42] <eyequeue> UBN2, or what sethk said :)
[01:42] <UBN2> sethk: so what you're saying is i should be able to just ssh copy * from here to there?
[01:42] <sethk> Xappe, that's another alternative, yes
[01:42] <eyequeue> UBN2, yes, but beware wildcards, heh
[01:42] <linuxd00d> #linuxd00d
[01:42] <cynical> cydrive: ah nevermind about automatix, I found a thread you should read :)
[01:42] <cynical> cydrive: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=165371&highlight=howto%3A+automatix
[01:43] <sethk> UBN2, basically, yes.  scp even has a -r flag for recursion  (but don't worry about that if you don't know what it means)
[01:43] <UBN2> eyequeue: be ware of wild cards?
[01:43] <neuroe> Premium Seasoned Flavored Turkey Breast
[01:43] <eyequeue> UBN2, the web server machine will have to be running openssh-server of course
[01:43] <UBN2> sethk: i am a linux virgin until i kicked my MS IIS box into the street and installed Ubuntu on an old box
[01:44] <CyDrive> cynical: thx
[01:44] <cynical> cydrive: np :)
[01:44] <eyequeue> UBN2, if you scp * to your web server, from your home dir, you'll put all your tax records out there, etc ;)
[01:44] <UBN2> eyequeue: i ssh into my box from here ... is that enough?
[01:44] <augustin> hi
[01:44] <sethk> UBN2, if you control both boxes (the ubuntu box and the one from which you upload) then sftp & scp are much better options than ordinary ftp
[01:45] <shevegen> i am trying to install libburn from svn source.  I seem to have a problem with libtool and aclocal, could someone help me briefly to set these two programs up properly via apt-get?
[01:45] <txx2> Does anyone know how I create a poll on the forum?.. I'm in the process of submitting a thread, though the only option I see is the variable for how many poll questions there are, there isn't any input forms as to what the poll questions will be.
[01:45] <eyequeue> UBN2, um, if you can ssh into each machine from the other, both are running both ssh client and server, yes, that's great
[01:45] <sethk> UBN2, yes, it's enough
[01:45] <augustin> i have a sound problem and couldn't find the solution: i want to be able to play a MP3 and at the same time get some sound from a java app, but i don't know where to tell java to use ALSA
[01:45] <avis> can anoyone confirm that this command is correct ?   avis@ubuntu:/media/usbdisk/media$ cd /media/usbdisk/media && tar -cf - . | cd /home/avis/media && tar xvfp -
[01:45] <augustin> could someone help, by providing a link or something, please ?
[01:46] <UBN2> okay thanks guys - i'm going have a fiddle with seeing how well i can copy shit in ssh mode (this may do for now)
[01:46] <txx2> How do I make a poll on the forums?
[01:46] <pygi> shevegen, see #libburn for a sec
[01:46] <kleedrac> Is there any way to speed up the hibernate/restore in dapper?
[01:46] <neuroe> augustin that question is hard
[01:46] <eyequeue> UBN2, ssh filename desthost:/path/you/want/
[01:46] <UdontKnow> kleedrac: 1) get less ram 2) get a faster system
[01:46] <augustin> neuroe =/
[01:47] <eyequeue> UBN2, scp filename desthost:/path/you/want/, rather
[01:47] <UdontKnow> kleedrac: those are the ways to get it faster
[01:47] <augustin> neuroe no idea at all?
[01:47] <kleedrac> UBN2: You can use gftp for ssh transfers (I do)
[01:47] <neuroe> im here for a hard question too
[01:47] <UBN2> eyequeue .. so ssh *.* server:/var/www/
[01:47] <eyequeue> UBN2, my error, "scp" not "ssh"
[01:47] <UBN2> scp okay
[01:47] <UBN2> yep yep
[01:47] <wheelswitch> what is the diffence between how a bash script runs from command line, and how it runs from a crontab?
[01:47] <UBN2> thanks mate appreciate your help.
[01:47] <augustin> neuroe good luck for yours then =P
[01:47] <kleedrac> UdontKnow: I was kinda hoping for a more sane answer
[01:48] <UBN2> cant believe how difficult setting up a FTP daemon has been tho.
[01:48] <SmartUnix> Hello
[01:48] <neuroe> =] 
[01:48] <eyequeue> UBN2, btw, you may also be able to use "sftp" :)
[01:48] <SmartUnix> i think i have big problem with Ubuntu 6.06 and i need advice
[01:48] <eyequeue> UBN2, sftp hostname:/var/www
[01:48] <kleedrac> UdontKnow: Also when I tripled the ram in this notebook the hibernate and restore actually take longer
[01:48] <paper> Has anyone had any luck with 6.0 and a pcmcia WPC54g v2?
[01:48] <facugaich> is there any way I can make a win98 boot disk from ubuntu?
[01:48] <SmartUnix> sorry for my bad English
[01:48] <UdontKnow> kleedrac: of course
[01:48] <UdontKnow> kleedrac: thats why I said LESS ram
[01:48] <Brokenstein> ok as it turns out the apt-get for nasm didnt work but id did through synaptic and thats why it wasnt working. thanks for earlier sethk
[01:48] <txx2> SmartUnix,  Sure, that's ok, what is your question?
[01:48] <UdontKnow> kleedrac: the more ram you have, the more ram you have to save and restore
[01:49] <sethk> Brokenstein, that's odd, synaptic just calls apt-get
[01:49] <facugaich> !floppy > facugaich
[01:49] <kleedrac> UdontKnow: I realize that but what's more disconcerting is that winxp (preinstalled and only used for c# code) will hibernate or restore in about 1/4 the time
[01:49] <EpP_> whats new?
[01:49] <SmartUnix> after upgrade to 6.06 i feel the system be slow , with 5.05 was faster , it's sometime work fast and sometime work very slow
[01:50] <neuroe> whats a good chanel to go to for harder ubuntu questions?
[01:50] <EpP_> #utah
[01:50] <SmartUnix> i don't know where is exactly the problem , is from GNOME or FireFox i don't know
[01:50] <neuroe> smartunix, have you tried the fasterdapper script?
[01:50] <sethk> SmartUnix, sounds like some program is chewing up resources.  Run top, see what's happening.
[01:50] <eyequeue> neuroe, typically this one
[01:50] <UBN2> eyequeue: sftp !?!? whats this alla bout?
[01:50] <wheelswitch> what is the difference between running a bash script from command line and from a crontab task?
[01:50] <Aphex_Twin> hi, is it possible to re-route my audio output back into the input (with the mic off) ? or to add PCMout as a capture channel?
[01:50] <perl_cont> no
[01:51] <SmartUnix> after 10 min i restart the GNOME and it's work fine , i am sure after 5 or 6 hours it will be slow
[01:51] <eyequeue> UBN2, "recent" openssh-server's have an ftp emulation mode called sftp, it's not exactly perfect, but may be similar enough to what you are accustomed to
[01:51] <lch> hey, I just installed totem-xine via EasyUbuntu, but I think it is still quite slow in playback... is there a faster media player for ubuntu?
[01:51] <eyequeue> UBN2, personally, i prefer scp
[01:51] <neuroe> i can't get gkrellm sound scope to work, it has two options for audio in, Esound and ASIA but neither give any visual cortex input for me to enjoy
[01:51] <Aphex_Twin> is Windows superior in that it permits re-routing of the audio out as an input?
[01:51] <sethk> UBN2, sftp is like ftp, only secure with ssh.  sftp and scp are part of the same package and you can use either.
[01:51] <david__> Hello, I was trying to fix the error where the ipw2200 module crashes the everything coming out of s3, and now I messed up my wireless drivers and they don't work.  Is there any way I can get the old ones back with apt-get or a script or somethinG?
[01:52] <neuroe> i mean ALSA
[01:52] <eyequeue> UBN2, if present, sftp tries to send the files via scp, behind the scenes, but it lacks some features (scuh as mget / mput, i think
[01:53] <eyequeue> such
[01:53] <augustin> oh, and also: when i type /opt/swiftfox/swiftfox --profilemanager it doesn't open the profile manager anymore, while it used to, before i created a profile.
[01:53] <augustin> any idea on how to open the manager again ? i'd like to change the directory
[01:53] <Krumz> What's a good solution for e-mail server virus scan?
[01:53] <eyequeue> augustin, i don't know that app, but "man swiftfox" may contain that answer
[01:54] <EpP> ] esc 1
[01:54] <Abjure> whats the ubuntu equivalent of dhcpd eth1???
[01:54] <augustin> eyequeue, the command is correct, it worked before, it just doesn't work anymore. and swiftfox is a version of firefox.
[01:54] <eyequeue> Abjure, dhclient eth1?
[01:54] <david__> Hello, I was trying to fix the error where the ipw2200 module crashes the everything coming out of s3, and now I messed up my wireless drivers and they don't work.  Is there any way I can reinstall ipw2200 from ubuntu repos?
[01:55] <Abjure> hmm
[01:55] <eyequeue> augustin, it may also require rm'ing the current profile, so it senses a lack?
[01:55] <neuroe> linux is hard
[01:55] <lch> hey, I just installed totem-xine via EasyUbuntu, but I think it is still quite slow in playback... is there a faster media player for ubuntu, or can I install drivers for my graphic card to get faster playback?
[01:55] <eyequeue> augustin, all just conjecture on my part
[01:55] <neuroe> lch, yes
[01:55] <SmartUnix> FireFox use 40MB from memory
[01:56] <augustin> eyequeue, thanks. the thing is: i don't want to remove the cuirrent profile, just stop using it and create another one somewhere else =)
[01:56] <Abjure> how do i make ubuntu assign me an ip from the DHCP server my router has?
[01:56] <cynical> turn on dhcp in your router
[01:56] <lch> neuroe, what should I do then?
[01:56] <Abjure> it is\
[01:56] <cynical> thats all thats needed
[01:56] <Deezzer> hi, can someone help this poor newbie? i just want to access my usb memory stick. in dos, i'd simply type d: or something, how do we do this in linux?
[01:56] <eyequeue> augustin, mv current.profile /home/augustin/safe.storage :)
[01:56] <david__> abjure, try:  sudo ipdown eth1;sudo ifup eth1
[01:56] <Masqy> which graphics adapter would you recommend, which is not in restricted modules?
[01:56] <lch> Deezzer, just put it in
[01:56] <augustin> eyequeue, damn you ! =P thanks, i'll try that, but i would like to know why it stopped working =/
[01:56] <neuroe> lch what card and cpu do you have?
[01:57] <lch> Deezzer, it should register itself and show on the desktop
[01:57] <paper> anyone had any luck with a WPC54g v2?
[01:57] <cynical> deezzer: its automatically mounted
[01:57] <foo> I am trying to install lame. I know on debian on needed .. uh.. marillat ... do I need that on ubuntu? Doesn't seem to be called lame on here. hmm
[01:57] <eyequeue> augustin, no clue, but the man page might answer it
[01:57] <Deezzer> I don't have ubuntu, this is all in the terminal
[01:57] <Deezzer> shell
[01:57] <david__> foo-try glame or toolame
[01:57] <lch> neuro_, an Ati brand (Rage 128 or sth. like that) and a celeron 500... the 1200 died :(
[01:57] <Deezzer> should i be in another channel?
[01:57] <augustin> eyequeue, once again, the exact same command doesn't work, and i have been managing firefox profiles for quite some time now ^
[01:57] <eyequeue> augustin, my answers were just based on what caused the behaviour to change, and how to get the old behaviour back
[01:57] <david__> foo-glame uses a gui (duh), toolame uses cmd line; syntax is a bit different
[01:58] <lch> Deezzer, if it is in your fstab, just mount it
[01:58] <foo> david__: ah, I saw too lame. I'll try that.
[01:58] <augustin> eyequeue, yeah, i'll try that =)
[01:58] <neuroe> a rage card should be supported by the installer i think
[01:58] <Deezzer> i'm in what looks like dos
[01:58] <foo> david__: A bit different? Hmm... as long as icecast knows or grip or whatever I am using knows about it ... so there is no lame?
[01:58] <lch> Deezzer, like this: "/dev/sda1               /mnt/usbstick   vfat,ntfs,auto  noauto,rw,user          0 0" in /etc/fstab
[01:58] <cynical> foo: do you have all your repositories enabled?
[01:58] <eyequeue> augustin, and when you get things the way you want, consider writing an email to the devs, a bug report
[01:59] <Deezzer> Ich, r u serious, i have to type all that into my terminal just to access my usb memory stick?!
[02:00] <neuroe> run glxgears lch
[02:00] <lch> Deezzer, no, that's a shortcut for mounting... do an "ls /dev/sd*" to look what device your usbstick uses
[02:00] <neuro_> lch: did you typo, or were you talking to me?
[02:00] <cynical> deezzer: no, hes typing what goes into your fstab
[02:00] <augustin> eyequeue, you're right, i'll do that =)
[02:00] <lch> neuro_, typo, sorry
[02:00] <neuro_> lch: np
[02:00] <foo> cynical: hm, just enabled universe.
[02:01] <neuroe> glxgears -printfps what do you get?
[02:01] <cynical> foo: ok then do a sudo aptitude update and try looking for it again
[02:01] <foo> cynical: Did it. No go. hm
[02:01] <foo> cynical: Just called lame, right?
[02:01] <foo> cynical: I did apt-get update. hmm
[02:02] <Deezzer> what is fstab?
[02:02] <Deezzer> is that a folder?
[02:02] <Deezzer> where my usb mem stick is at
[02:02] <eyequeue> a file
[02:02] <neuroe> Deezzer it's what ninjas do
[02:02] <cynical> foo: you searched for lame and cant find it?
[02:02] <eyequeue> fstab (5)            - static information about the filesystems
[02:02] <Deezzer> i want to be a ninja, how do i do this?
[02:02] <foo> cynical: I can't just find lame, correct.
[02:02] <neuroe> first you need a fknife
[02:03] <Deezzer> i want to be a linux ninja
[02:03] <cynical> foo: check this out http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=lame&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[02:03] <neuroe> all you need is many years of brutal training
[02:03] <eyequeue> Deezzer, "man fstab" for all the details
[02:04] <cynical> foo: you are looking for liblame0 or lame
[02:04] <neuroe> stab man
[02:04] <foo> cynical: er, lame, nope, neither. Should I get my sources up on pastebin for you?
[02:05] <cynical> foo: what package are you looking for exactly?
[02:05] <foo> cynical: lame and liblame0
[02:05] <argument> amd i just retarded or is the config for 2.0 different in ubuntu?
[02:05] <cynical> foo: you didnt see them on that page?
[02:05] <augustin> still no one to help with java and ALSA ?
[02:05] <cafuego> argument: Well...
[02:05] <foo> cynical: I see, hm, I don't seem to have multiuniverse in my sources
[02:06] <neuroe> i think i killed lch
[02:06] <foo> cynical: How do I add multiuniverse? hm
[02:06] <cynical> foo: yes you add multiverse to the end of the repositories
[02:06] <argument> apache 2.0
[02:06] <argument> sorry
[02:06] <eyequeue> foo multiverse
[02:06] <cynical> foo: add them after universe
[02:06] <argument> cafuego, i can't find the DocumentRoot directive
[02:06] <cafuego> argument: different from what?
[02:06] <cynical> foo: but you can just download the packages straight from that page btw...
[02:06] <cafuego> argument: No, you create config files for each vhost in /etc/apache2/sites-available
[02:06] <argument> cafuego, i can't find the DocumentRoot directive
[02:06] <argument> cafuego, oh
[02:07] <argument> cafuego, so i have to use vhosts?
[02:07] <cafuego> argument: ... so that's where you look.
[02:07] <neuroe> foo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[02:07] <cafuego> argument: If you just have the 000default there, then you have just one vhost, eh? :-)
[02:07] <cafuego> argument: There's no law that says you have to have more
[02:07] <lch> neuroe, I just had to look for that parameter again... around 175 FPS
[02:07] <argument> cafuego, yeh that's all i have
[02:07] <paper> anyone able to help me with a wireless problem? it has to do with a wpc54g ubuntu 6.0.6
[02:08] <neuroe> sounds accelorated to me
[02:08] <cafuego> argument: Just edit the default then
[02:08] <neuroe> accelerated even
[02:08] <argument> huh ok
[02:08] <neuroe> did you have a look at top?
[02:08] <argument> got it
[02:08] <argument> that's a new approach, guess i'm not used to it
[02:08] <cafuego> paper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[02:08] <eyequeue> argument, symlink from sites-enabled after you write a new one
[02:08] <argument> eyequeue, yup i get that
[02:08] <cafuego> eyequeue: No, run 'a2ensite' and have the system do it.
[02:08] <neuroe> lch, you could always try totem-gstreamer
[02:08] <peanutb> i gave my cousin an ubuntu disk and hiv video card (ATI X1300) wont show anything on the screen he says he gets sound effects but just cant see what hes doing.
[02:09] <CrazyDoode_> rofl man fstab
[02:09] <paper> cafuego: read that
[02:09] <eyequeue> cafuego, never saw that one before
[02:09] <cafuego> paper: Did you install the firmware?
[02:09] <argument> cafuego, so what about enabling public_html
[02:09] <cafuego> eyequeue: See also a2dissite, a2enmod, a2dismod :-)
[02:10] <cafuego> argument: That's mod_userdir; 'sudo a2enmod userdir'
[02:10] <paper> cafuego: ndiswrapper andwindows drivers yes
[02:10] <cafuego> paper: No, that's not what I said.
[02:10] <trygg> imbrandon: I dont use kde so. ;)
[02:10] <trygg> imbrandon: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20718
[02:10] <cafuego> paper: If you want to sue ndiswrapper, you need to disable 'bcm43xx' like it says on that wiki page.
[02:11] <bur[n] er_> if you want to sue ndiswrapper, get a lawyer ;)
[02:11] <argument> cafuego, or i could just uncomment it from apache2.conf :)
[02:11] <neuroe> i am going to sue fstab
[02:11] <paper> cafuego: i dont have a way to install the firmware, the nic on this laptop is bad
[02:11] <argument> i'm going to sue printk!
[02:12] <neuroe> for applied violence
[02:12] <paper> so i guess im S.O.L
[02:12] <neuroe> then i'm going to sue fsck for obsenity or somethun
[02:12] <peanutb> i gave my cousin an ubuntu disk and hiv video card (ATI X1300) wont show anything on the screen he says he gets sound effects but just cant see what hes doing
[02:12] <cafuego> argument: You still need to make sure the 'userdir' module will load, before you give it directives.
[02:12] <bur[n] er_> paper: use a flash usb disk and another computer :)
[02:12] <foo> cynical / neuroe / eyequeue: Thanks, I got it.
[02:12] <imbrandon> trygg: ok one mine looking
[02:12] <cynical> foo: np
[02:12] <cafuego> paper: Can you download it and put it on a floppy or usb key?
[02:12] <trygg> Yeah.
[02:13] <neuroe> np foo, now can someone help me?
[02:13] <neuroe> =] 
[02:13] <imbrandon> trygg: ok you there ? see line 16 and 17
[02:14] <trygg> Yeah?
[02:14] <imbrandon> trygg: remove the space from the begining of that line and add " multiverse" to the end of both
[02:14] <lch> neuroe, is there no faster media player than totem?
[02:14] <neuroe> totem is a thing that lets media players play in a browser i think
[02:14] <imbrandon> deb http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse  <--- so it reads like that
[02:14] <imbrandon> trygg: ^^
[02:14] <trygg> imbrandon: should it say 'dapper universe multiverse'?
[02:14] <imbrandon> yes
[02:15] <trygg> Wonderful!
[02:15] <trygg> Thanks imbrandon !
[02:15] <imbrandon> on both of those line
[02:15] <lch> ok... I miss ffdshow, somehow
[02:15] <imbrandon> trygg:  then " sudo apt-get update" and all will be good
[02:15] <lch> that thing rocked, you could watch xvid's on a p2 350 fluently
[02:16] <trygg> imbrandon: splendid!

[02:19] <HellDragon> ok
[02:19] <__mikem> imbrandon which packages
[02:19] <neuroe> trygg, i'm using gnome does that count?
[02:19] <rockzman> can anyone help me with my cedega

[02:19] <rockzman>     config_file_to_use = str("cedega_" + Point2Play_ref.default_winex)
[02:19] <rockzman> what does that means?
[02:19] <foo> err, vncviewer's refresh is terrible on linux. I have to roll my cursor over a part if I want it to refresh. Any setting to fix this?
[02:19] <neuroe> rockzman, it means linux is hard
[02:19] <david__> eyequeue: i tried to install a patched version that would remove the glitch where the computer crashes on coming out of s3, and i broke the module entirely
[02:19] <rockzman> neuro_: what else nostradamus 
[02:20] <imbrandon> foo try a diffrent vnc viewer there are tons of them
[02:20] <eyequeue> david__, uname -r
[02:20] <HellDragon> ok
[02:20] <neuro_> come on, kids, pick the right nick :)
[02:20] <david__> 2.6.15-26-386
[02:20] <neuroe> i did
[02:21] <rockzman> neuroe: what else nostradamus 
[02:21] <neuro_> they didn't :)
[02:21] <eyequeue> david__, can you try sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-kernel-2.6.15-26-386
[02:21] <HellDragon> ok
[02:21] <eyequeue> david__, DO you have a 386, not 686?
[02:21] <rockzman> if that makes you happier neuro_
[02:21] <trygg> neuroe: No! Or maybe, do you have it moderately config'd? :)
[02:21] <HellDragon> ok
[02:21] <neuroe> thats cool that you can reinstall your kernal without rebooting
[02:21] <david__> i have a 386
[02:21] <neuro_> rockzman: well, it stops my irc client lighting up like a christmas tree, so thanks
[02:21] <ElTano27> well i'd like to have aa Ubuntu (6.06) installation that doesnt need the cd inserted can any1 tell me how to do it?
[02:22] <david__> eyequeue: shall i still reinstall the kernel?
[02:22] <eyequeue> david__, okay
[02:22] <HellDragon> ok
[02:22] <neuroe> how do i defrag my hard drive?
[02:22] <eyequeue> david__, 686 is common these days, i thought i might save you the d/l time if you wanted that, heh
[02:22] <burningfire> Is it possible to upgrade my kernel via apt to get > than 2.6.17.4 ?
[02:22] <_Budda> ElTano27: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/configuration.html
[02:22] <HellDragon> ok
[02:22] <argument> neuroe, you don't, ext3 doesn't need it
[02:22] <eyequeue> neuroe, no need
[02:22] <neuroe> what if i want to anyway?
[02:22] <trygg> A quick question, how do i make opera use mplayer for integrated videoclips?
[02:22] <eyequeue> burningfire, not advisible with dapper
[02:22] <rockzman> Lal guyz
[02:23] <david__> eyequeue: nope, i'm running the last of the 32 bit processors; also, that package does'nt exist
[02:23] <_Budda> is there a quick start guide for samba + ubuntu server 6 - just to get it sharing my /home/xxxxx folder
[02:23] <eyequeue> burningfire, .15 has most of the backports anyway
[02:23] <burningfire> eyequeue: uhm, I need to, there is a privilege escalation vulnerability in this kernel
[02:23] <argument> _Budda, if you read the docs on http://tldp.org/ about Samba and stuff you'll be up and running fairly quickly, that's how i learned
[02:23] <eyequeue> burningfire, .15 has most of the backports anyway <---
[02:23] <argument> _Budda, otherwise search the wiki, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/
[02:23] <ElTano27> thanks i'll take a look right now
[02:24] <burningfire> eyequeue: backports means what?
[02:24] <trygg> Is that even possible?
[02:24] <_Budda> argument: just been on the wiki, the info is a bit thin
[02:24] <neuroe> how do i put ubuntu on my xbox?
[02:24] <eyequeue> burningfire, check the security site, i think you'll find it's covered
[02:24] <Masqy> My kernel is 2.6.15, is that the newest for dapper ? I've run the update, and it tells that everything is up-to-date, I'm afraid my ppp connection is troublesome, so.. what is the newest official kernel for dapper?
[02:24] <argument> _Budda, try http://tldp.org and read the Samba howto
[02:24] <_Budda> argument: just lookin now.... thanks
[02:24] <eyequeue> Masqy, that
[02:24] <burningfire> eyequeue: uhm, now, I am fully up-to-date according to apt, however the exploit for this vuln runs fine!
[02:24] <neuroe> that would be sweet if ubuntu had a live cd for xbox
[02:24] <argument> Masqy, 2.6.15 is indeed the latest dapper kernel
[02:25] <eyequeue> burningfire, then you should write the security team with details
[02:25] <Masqy> eyequeue, argument: 10x..
[02:25] <burningfire> eyequeue: this is not good for Ubuntu servers at all lol
[02:25] <krizzer> hello

[02:34] <varsendaggr> there it is

[02:34] <VitaminG> kyefun: Gaim is good, but try aMSN if you don't like it..
[02:35] <Malachi> Is there a way I can view the stored items in my keyring?
[02:35] <kyefun> thanks
[02:35] <HeathenDan> gaim
[02:35] <azureal> eyequeue, ah, thx...lol...i must have been going blank..
[02:36] <eyequeue> azureal, debian/ubuntu methods, vs generic linux :)  i fall back to the old sometimes too
[02:36] <azureal> but isnt there one to do w/ init.d as well?
[02:36] <eyequeue> azureal, /etc/init.d/networking?

[02:38] <perry_> hi, i'm trying to install an HP officejet 5610 and when I use the new printer wizard, the list of manufacturers/models is blank
[02:38] <acidburn85> hi, everybody
[02:38] <mayday_jay> I'm having a rendering issue on an Intel 915GM, from what I can tell it may be a mesa issue, I get only a partial screen in things like GL screensavers, and Google Earth, can anyone offer any insight?
[02:40] <acidburn85> hi everyone
[02:40] <david__> eyequeue, thanks so much!  you saved my computer from needing a wipe&reload!
[02:40] <acidburn85> i love ubuntu its cool
[02:41] <txx2> acidburn85,  indeed
[02:41] <eyequeue> david__, heh, it's rarely that drastic :)
[02:41] <txx2> incidently, I have a terrible acid in my throat.. maybe I need to eat something
[02:42] <_Budda> txx2: drink milk
[02:42] <perry_> milk is acidic
[02:42] <david__> eyequeue, I spent forever messing with grub and compiz and vmware, and those aren't so easy to restore (and I tend to w&r rather than fix the problem, if it is simple)
[02:42] <GoClick> Milk is basic you fool
[02:42] <sproingie> GoClick: lactic acid fool
[02:42] <perry_> no, milk contains LACTIC ACID
[02:42] <txx2> GoClick,  what do you suggest then?
[02:42] <acidburn85> how do you do music on ubuntu?
[02:42] <eyequeue> milk is bad, lactose
[02:42] <GoClick> CALCIUM
[02:42] <GoClick> lactose isn't bad
[02:42] <_Budda> drink it
[02:42] <__mikem> Whey is good
[02:42] <GoClick> OMH milk haters
[02:42] <eyequeue> tums :)
[02:42] <perry_> lactose is milk sugar, not lactic acid
[02:43] <godtvisken> How can I have `ls' list the entire directory before the file name?
[02:43] <GoClick> Milk is great
[02:43] <david__> eyequeue, do you know the solution to this error?: eth1: NETDEV_TX_BUSY returned; driver should report queue full via ieee_device->is_queue_full
[02:43] <david__> eyequeue, when coming out of suspend to ram
[02:44] <txx2> GoClick,  but it comes from cowes boobies.
[02:44] <eyequeue> david__, no, that's a new one to me
[02:44] <GoClick> That'sa good thing
[02:44] <GoClick> I like boobies
[02:44] <__mikem> !language

[02:45] <Vitamin1> varsendaggr: is it workig now?
[02:45] <mayday_jay> Does anyone have experience correcting GL rendering issues on Intel 915GM based video?
[02:45] <eyequeue> david__, hibernate / suspend are still a bit too flaky at times, imo
[02:45] <perry_> anybody here know anything about hplip?
[02:45] <varsendaggr> Vitamin1, yeah
[02:45] <eyequeue> david__, both to ram and to disk :/
[02:45] <Vitamin1> sorry, my connection dropped, and it took a few minutes to fix it.
[02:46] <Vitamin1> can someone here help me with a strange mount problem?
[02:46] <txx2> ndiswrapper, edgy eft poll; http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=237225 please cast your vote, thank you.
[02:46] <eyequeue> david__, here i tend to lose ipw2000, heh
[02:47] <david__> eyequeue, do you know any solutions that have the same effect?  i just would like a way to quick-boot my laptop, so that I can use it, put it away, and use it again
[02:47] <eyequeue> david__, i would love the same, sorry, i don't know any
[02:48] <BHSPitMonkey> has anyone had some serious freezes/reboots occur when dealing with a logitech webcam?
[02:49] <lch> how easy or hard is it to convert my installation from ext2 to xfs?
[02:49] <lch> why does ubuntu use ext2 as default, and not at least ext3?
[02:49] <sproingie> it uses ext3 as default for me
[02:49] <BHSPitMonkey> lch, I wasn't aware that it did.
[02:49] <Vitamin1> same here
[02:49] <david__> eyequeue, ok :(
[02:49] <lch> parted says to me it's ext2
[02:49] <eyequeue> lch, ext3 seems the default
[02:50] <sproingie> Ich: because there is no difference in the partition number
[02:50] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: logitech working fine here but i have an old cam
[02:50] <lch> ok
[02:50] <eyequeue> lch, ext3 "looks like" ext2 to some apps
[02:50] <lch> then I am content :)
[02:50] <eyequeue> lch, ext3 is really just ext2 with journalling, so that is good
[02:50] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, my cam's an old type too, quickcam express with a gray focus ring... mind showing me what you did to get it working?
[02:50] <sproingie> personally i use reiser3 or xfs
[02:51] <Vitamin1> can someone here help me with a strange mount problem?
[02:51] <sproingie> !ask > Vitamin1
[02:51] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: i did nothing it works out of the box mine is quickcam express too
[02:51] <BHSPitMonkey> hmm
[02:51] <BHSPitMonkey> that bothers me
[02:51] <BHSPitMonkey> lol
[02:51] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: lsmod |grep quickcam
[02:51] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, what programs do you use it with?
[02:51] <farous> did you check it with camorama
[02:53] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, lsmod gives me:
[02:53] <farous> i used it with camorama and qnext worked perfectly in both no lockups
[02:53] <BHSPitMonkey> quickcam               78372  0
[02:53] <BHSPitMonkey> videodev                9856  1 quickcam
[02:53] <BHSPitMonkey> usbcore               130692  6 quickcam,usb_storage,usbhid,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd
[02:53] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: the modules for the cam are loaded you can use it right now
[02:53] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, if yours is plugged in, would you mind sharing the vendor:device number from lsusb?
[02:54] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: let me plugit first
[02:54] <BHSPitMonkey> thanks
[02:54] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: will use lspci ok
[02:54] <pablo_> hello
[02:54] <pablo_> how do i make trasparent my terminal?
[02:54] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, is yours usb?
[02:55] <pablo_> the terminal
[02:55] <Viper550> Which terminal do you want to transparent?
[02:55] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: yapo
[02:55] <Vitamin1> sproingie: I have two HDs, 40 and 80 GB. I use the 80 or windows and ubuntu, and the 40 as a FAT32 media storage drivve. At install, I specified the mount point to be /media/media. It came up on the desktop labeled media after the install, but after a reinstall, it's labelled "TAGSick Of". Neither fstab nor mtab seem to be glitched, but it doesn't go away by unmounting, then remounting.
[02:55] <Viper550> Gnome-Terminal? Konsole? Eterm?
[02:55] <pablo_> gnome terminak
[02:55] <pablo_> the default one
[02:55] <Viper550> Edit>Current
[02:55] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, my usb devices don't show up in lspci... just the usb controllers
[02:55] <Viper550> Profile
[02:55] <pablo_> yes
[02:55] <pablo_> and then
[02:56] <BHSPitMonkey> effects tab.
[02:56] <Viper550> Yes
[02:56] <BHSPitMonkey> transparent background
[02:56] <farous> yah was gona ask you hwo can i get you the inform you needed
[02:56] <pablo_> excelent
[02:56] <pablo_> i was looking in colors
[02:56] <pablo_> how stupid of me
[02:56] <sproingie> Vitamin1: i'd say the desktop shortcut is probably corrupted.  hopefully that's all
[02:56] <pablo_> thank very much
[02:57] <trygg> Is mplayerplug-in only for mozilla/firefox?
[02:57] <Vitamin1> ok, thanks. I've never seen this happen before, so I had no idea what was causing it.
[02:58] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: all i get from qcset is that is logitech quickcam usb
[02:58] <kbrosnan> trygg, it should work for any browser that supports netscape plugins
[02:58] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, if do you do lsusb, you'll see the quickcam there, and there's a number I'd like to see
[02:58] <Vitamin1> sproingie: where would that desktop file be located?
[02:58] <BHSPitMonkey> looks like ####:####
[02:59] <foo> BHSPitMonkey: Looks like: woohooo
[02:59] <BHSPitMonkey> foo, what's that over there?! *points*
[02:59] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: 046d:0840
[02:59] <BHSPitMonkey> thanks
[02:59] <farous> is that like yours
[02:59] <BHSPitMonkey> hmm, so our cameras our completely identical
[03:00] <pablo_> why does it appears this  instead of 
[03:00] <BHSPitMonkey> but yours works in ubuntu, mine doesn't
[03:00] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: did you install camorama
[03:00] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, yes
[03:00] <farous> and just check it with it. i also install qc-usb-utils
[03:01] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, already have that installed too
[03:01] <farous> strange. might be conflict with other device you have using same irq or someth
[03:01] <farous> speculating here
[03:02] <BHSPitMonkey> k
[03:02] <pablo_> why does it appears this  instead of ?
[03:02] <BHSPitMonkey> farous, so what command works for you, that will just test the camera's output
[03:02] <BHSPitMonkey> whaley, what is "it"?
[03:03] <farous> BHSPitMonkey: the only prob i had that some prog looked for the wrong dev for the cam. it is /dev/video0
[03:03] <BHSPitMonkey> uhhh
[03:03] <BHSPitMonkey> whaley, disregard, sorry
[03:03] <lch> okay, last thing before I can pass this comp to my dad: can I configure gnome to auto-login a user, without having to type in the user/pass all the time?

[03:03] <lch> I found http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Automatic_Login_No_Authentication but I think that is for the terminal?

[03:07] <darkyoshi372> has anyone had trouble connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.org?
[03:07] <lch> eyequeue, it is still necessary to enter the password then?
[03:08] <darkyoshi372> Sorry, us.archive.ubuntu.com, it is. Can anybody get to it?
[03:08] <varsendaggr> how can i change the file preferances?
[03:08] <eyequeue> lch, i *think* not, but try it

[03:08] <darkyoshi372> weird...
[03:08] <varsendaggr> like i want mplayer to open up automagically when i double click on a movie
[03:08] <darkyoshi372> I suddenly can't do an apt-get update
[03:09] <farous> darkyoshi372: try pinging the repos
[03:09] <darkyoshi372> I did ping it, but no responce
[03:09] <FunnyLookinHat> darkyoshi372, you should switch your archive mirror to something else, i used to have lots of issues with us.archive.ubuntu.com
[03:09] <darkyoshi372> hmm...
[03:09] <darkyoshi372> Is there a ca.archive.ubuntu.com for canadian users?
[03:09] <whaley> what's the best command line utility to find what file a piece of text might be located in
[03:09] <FunnyLookinHat> darkyoshi372, replace us.archive.ubuntu.org with mirror.cs.umn.edu
[03:10] <farous> darkyoshi372: yap
[03:10] <whaley> i would grep for the line, but i don't know what file it is in
[03:10] <eyequeue> varsendaggr, here's what i've heard
[03:10] <eyequeue> varsendaggr, right click on a movie, then change the app associated with it
[03:10] <farous> darkyoshi372: not sure how sync or commp it is
[03:10] <eyequeue> varsendaggr, i've not tried this myself, i'm not a big gui guy
[03:10] <darkyoshi372> well, I'll try it out. Thanks!
[03:10] <varsendaggr> eyequeue, that is it
[03:11] <sizzam> i'm looking for a terminal command to do an X switch-user
[03:11] <farous> sizzam: gdmflexiserver
[03:12] <lch> whaley, "find"
[03:12] <farous> for nested session gdmflexiserver -n
[03:12] <whaley> lch: i couldn't find the argument to search within files
[03:12] <whaley> -name and -iname look at the filename
[03:13] <sizzam> farous: thanks
[03:13] <farous> ur w :)
[03:13] <lch> whaley, find has an "exec" feature that you can combine with grep -q
[03:14] <lch> or wait
[03:14] <lch> "grep -R" is actually easier :)
[03:15] <varsendaggr> hey i was watching a movie with mplayer and then i opend up another mplayer and my audio quit working....
[03:15] <whaley> lch: awesome, thanks :)
[03:16] <lch> eyequeue, thanks, it works as intended... now I can finally pass on that desktop to my father
[03:16] <tuxavenger> does anyone know if dapper-faster and automatix work in xubuntu?
[03:16] <eyequeue> lch, cool
[03:16] <Frankenstein> is that like preload?
[03:17] <lch> I'm really surprised by Ubuntu now... tried it 1-2 years ago, but it wasn't that good. but now it's really nice to use.
[03:17] <varsendaggr> i did a reboot and still no dice
[03:18] <varsendaggr> lch have you used xgl?
[03:18] <eyequeue> lch, continual work must pay off :)

[03:18] <augustin> hey
[03:19] <Ricesteam> Hi, does anyone know how i can change mouse cursors? Ie. Where can I find and change mouse themes?
[03:19] <lch> let's hope xgl or aiglx becomes popular enough in a year, then it could really have an impact
[03:19] <tuxavenger> Ricesteam, apt-get gcursor
[03:19] <tuxavenger> it is a gui for chnaging your cursor
[03:19] <Ricesteam> tuxavenger: ty
[03:19] <augustin> just a quick question: is it possible to make it so that, when i launch a java application through my browser (using Sun's JNLP, i think), it uses the command "aoss java" instead of "java" ?
[03:19] <varsendaggr> lch, i am looking forward to seeing more app come out other than just eye candy
[03:20] <tuxavenger> Ricesteam, while your at it apt-get gnome-art, it is a similar prog for themes and the like, it downloads them and installs them from the web
[03:20] <lch> the eye candy is just to get attention, as usual
[03:21] <Ricesteam> thanks
[03:22] <Ricesteam> where can i find mouse themes?
[03:23] <Noumaan> Firefox does not render Urdu language pages correctly. I filed a bug on launchpad and mozilla's bugzilla but weeks after we havent recieved any response. How we the Urdu speaking people could make Developers hear our voice?
[03:23] <varsendaggr> lch, other than eye candy i 'm not sure that i see what could be done with it....   however i am really looking forward to what people WILL do with it
[03:23] <varsendaggr> lch, any idea on my sound issue
[03:25] <trygg> This is really bugging me, why do git say '/usr/bin/gitfm: fatal error: `chdir' failed: permission denied.'?
[03:25] <lch> you can't have two sources playing audio at the same time
[03:25] <varsendaggr> how do you reset sound?
[03:26] <trygg> Its not something on the server because i get that if i try with an nonexisting server also
[03:26] <varsendaggr> yeah however i've rebo0oted it since then
[03:26] <varsendaggr> maybe i need another reboot
[03:26] <tuxavenger> varsendaggr, did you try changing the gstreamer-properties fomr esd to alsa or oss
[03:26] <lch> varsendaggr, you could try "/etc/init.d/alsasound reset"
[03:26] <lch> err, restart
[03:27] <lch> you shouldn't need to reboot for that
[03:27] <varsendaggr> tuxavenger, i wasn't working with gstreamer, mplayer
[03:27] <tuxavenger> sorry
[03:27] <varsendaggr> tuxavenger, no prob thanks i do appreciate your help

[03:28] <lch> varsendaggr, have you tried restarting alsa?
[03:28] <krazykit> anyone especially good with grub in here?  i simply can't get grub-install to work
[03:29] <varsendaggr> ohh this might be it
[03:29] <trygg> lch: Sure you can have multiple sources of audio playing at the same time? :)

[03:31] <trygg> Still, i wouldnt bash on the very same people that you're requesting help from.
[03:31] <varsendaggr> did mplayer hijack my sound card

[03:32] <foo> hm, I am trying to bring up eth0 but I am getting an error : Error while getting interface flags. Any ideas ? Hmm. lspci shows an ethernet controller.
[03:32] <sjbrown> is there a ration between cylinders and sectors, like when you run the partitioning part of the installer?
[03:33] <Mallclerks> Hi everyone.  I am hoping someone here may be able to help me.  I am not a big linux user, only used it a bit with webhosting server before.  I am trying to install ubuntu and I get to where it is "installing system" and at the bottom says "Formatting swap space in partition #5 of ide2 master (hdc)  It seems to freeze at this space as it has been at 0% for over an hour, and I have tried it 3 times now.  Any suggestions what I can 
[03:34] <sjbrown> er, i mean between cylinders and megabytes
[03:34] <sjbrown> does it depend on the brand of disk?
[03:34] <AAA> mmmm cylinder and megabytes mmm
[03:35] <flodine> a guys i need help i have ubuntu installed i want to unlock all the folders on my backup drive is this possible
[03:35] <AAA> flodine  anything is possible, you booting from the CD?
[03:36] <flodine> no
[03:36] <varsendaggr> AAA, wait.  ubuntu can't make me breakfast
[03:36] <AAA> flodine  what kind of filesystem?
[03:36] <varsendaggr> not yet
[03:36] <AAA> varsendaggr  oh yes it can...
[03:36] <flodine> ext3
[03:36] <AAA> varsendaggr  depens on what you eat for breakfast :)
[03:36] <AAA> flodine  and it didn't mount t auto?
[03:37] <AAA> flodine  do >mount
[03:37] <sjbrown> ah.  i meant ratio, not ration
[03:37] <flodine> AAA the drive is mounted i just want to unlock all the folders on the drive
[03:38] <AAA> flodine  what are the perms on the files? ls -ld /mnt/wherever
[03:38] <agt> Is anyone using the latest svn of xfce on ubuntu? is there a script to install, or premade debs? ... i remember there used to be
[03:38] <cryptic^zazeem> need 6v6 scrim now any map #crypt1c
[03:39] <AAA> agt  isn't there an install script in the root dir of the svn checkout?
[03:39] <flodine> AAA there root 000
[03:39] <flodine> AAA i just want all of them to be user
[03:40] <zubwolf> why is it such a pain to get the nvidia driver installed on dapper, my card is an geforce 4mx, dont matter which kernel i use, dont matter if i install the ubuntu pkg (and edit my xorg.conf like the readme tells), or i download the driver directly from the nvidia site and compile it (it mostly jsut refuse to compile(sometimes it dont, and it seems okay, but starting X results in "the nvidia modules cannot be found"))
[03:40] <AAA> flodine  that is your problem. you need to >chown flodine.flodine -R /mnt/whereever
[03:40] <AAA> flodine  or whatever your user name is on that box
[03:40] <flodine> AAA but how do do all at one time
[03:40] <agt> AAA, don't think so ... theres autogen.sh files in each module's directory, but i used to use a script that automated the whole thing.
[03:40] <AAA> flodine  you will need to sudo that cmd
[03:41] <Fenster> hey guys.. I hit delete on a file on a ntfs drive and it didnt prompt me if I wanted to delete
[03:41] <zubwolf> hangin there for hours, just trying to install that crap...
[03:41] <Fenster> and it doesnt seem to be in the trash
[03:41] <Fenster> is it gone gone???
[03:41] <AAA> agt  no idea, check the doc's on their website.  the autogen.sh script should get your started?
[03:41] <neuroe> so how much more crowded has this room become reciently? =] 
[03:41] <neuroe> crouded
[03:42] <agt> AAA,  thanks
[03:42] <neuroe> w/e
[03:42] <eyequeue> !ntfs > Fenster
[03:42] <flodine> AAA there got to be a way to unroot all the fold not just the main folder everything inside is locked to
[03:42] <cpare> Good Evening All
[03:42] <Fenster> eyequeue, .. my drives are working fine
[03:42] <Fenster> I hit delete
[03:42] <Fenster> linux didnt prompt me about deleting
[03:43] <Fenster> it just dissapeared from the folder
[03:43] <trygg> A good program for switching fonts and gtk-themes?
[03:43] <krazykit> Fenster, then don't hit delete unless you want to delete something.
[03:43] <cpare> Looking for some Easy help with something stupid I did in gnome...
[03:43] <eyequeue> Fenster, the factoid was intended to point out ntfs writes are unsafe
[03:43] <AAA> flodine  that is what the -R switch is for (recursive)
[03:43] <Fenster> well ya.. but no prompt? isnt that a linux thing
[03:43] <Fenster> grrrr
[03:43] <eyequeue> Fenster, a deletion is a write
[03:43] <flodine> AAA whats is r
[03:43] <flodine> AAA noob
[03:44] <cpare> I did a "Remove from Panel" on GAIM so now it doesn't minimize to the tray - can someone show mw how to get it back?
[03:44] <krazykit> Fenster, no.  you can rm your whole / without a prompt
[03:44] <Fenster> there is no way to convert the drives is there?
[03:44] <Fenster> without moving all the data
[03:44] <krazykit> Fenster, not without losing all the data
[03:44] <Elephant> flodine:  chmod -R go=rwx folder
[03:44] <Fenster> grrrr
[03:44] <Fenster> is ext3 pretty darn good?
[03:44] <AAA> flodine  like I said. chmod -R username.username /folder will recursivley change the file/folder perms in /folder
[03:44] <Fenster> as far as data storage?
[03:44] <krazykit> Fenster, yeah.  ext3 is excellent
[03:44] <agt> trygg, gtk-theme-switch ? thats if you don't want to use the gnome tools
[03:44] <eyequeue> Fenster, it is the default, yes
[03:44] <jrib> cpare: did you remove the notificationo area from the panel?  right click on the panel and try adding it back
[03:44] <Soccrmastr> well, since xubuntu channel is dead I was hoping i can find some help here
[03:45] <Fenster> hrmmmz
[03:45] <Fenster> I just might do it
[03:45] <trygg> agt: thanks. :)
[03:45] <UKMatt> has anyone had any experience doing some serious partition changing?
[03:45] <eyequeue> !anyone > UKMatt
[03:45] <neuroe> i've had experiences
[03:45] <cpare> that was it jrib - Thanks
[03:45] <jrib> cpare: np
[03:46] <Elephant> What are you trying to do, UKMatt?
[03:46] <cpare> this IRC is so great
[03:46] <Soccrmastr> Ok, can someone help me with xubuntu
[03:46] <neuroe> cpare, you should try EfNet
[03:46] <krazykit> Soccrmastr, just ask.
[03:47] <Soccrmastr> yes well I am new to linux so will probably ask very n00b questions
[03:47] <UKMatt> I have a windows NTFS and a gnome ub partition, and I decided i'm gonna make the switch to almost 100% UB, so I wanted to drop the size of my windows partition down significantly, up UB and make a FAT32 for Music/Doc/All that, and I've looked at resizing partitions before and it tells me their locked (probably because in use)
[03:47] <toddobryan> Does anyone know where I can get a driver for an IBM Infoprint 1332 printer?
[03:47] <Soccrmastr> I installed xubuntu, then ran the command  for getting the xubuntu interfaces, but after it does a lot of stuff I get an error
[03:48] <neuroe> UKMatt, get partion magic on a floppy or boot disk
[03:48] <UKMatt> as in .iso?
[03:48] <Soccrmastr> that says "media change: please insert the disc labeled 'xubuntu 6.06.1 _drapper drake_-Release 1386 (20060807)'"
[03:48] <neuroe> yea
[03:48] <epitron> UKMatt: you can also boot your ubuntu CD as a live CD and partition your drive from that
[03:48] <UKMatt> neuroe, and what, that loads as an image and I do it from outisde an OS?
[03:48] <neuroe> that's not a very linuxy answer but it's easy
[03:48] <neuroe> yea
[03:48] <Soccrmastr> so i insert the CD I used to install, press enter. at 99% percent I just get another error
[03:48] <eyequeue> Soccrmastr, it looks like it is trying to install something it needs
[03:49] <UKMatt> epitron, to boot it as a live CD do i just load it as i did initially?
[03:49] <catadoxas> hey I have some prob with my opengl I use a x600 radeon and have the xorg-driver-fglrx installed and konfigured
[03:49] <catadoxas> sitll i dont have any opengl
[03:49] <epitron> UKMatt: if it's dapper, yes. if it's breezy, i don't remember :)
[03:49] <catadoxas> any help?
[03:49] <epitron> UKMatt: there's a startup menu when you put the CD in
[03:49] <UKMatt> epitron, breezy didn't but dapper does, i know what you mean
[03:49] <epitron> (boot the cd, rather)
[03:49] <unity> is there a command-line program to record everything that is 1. going into my mic, and 2. coming out of my speakers? simultaneously?
[03:49] <drakonen_> k now i try here wit crapy english lol
[03:49] <UKMatt> epitron, i really liked how they changed that in dapper
[03:49] <manmadha> i can not play mp3 files in ubuntu.......can any one help me...?i have installed w32 codecs.
[03:49] <eyequeue> Soccrmastr, does your cd have an option to check its integrity?  (boot from it)
[03:50] <epitron> unity: hrmm.. i'd imagine so.. :)
[03:50] <Soccrmastr> yeah it can boot from the CD thats how I installed in the first place
[03:50] <UKMatt> manmadha, are they .mp3's or are you just using that as a general term for music files
[03:50] <epitron> unity: you're going to need alsa to do that, at least
[03:50] <epitron> unity: perhaps Jack
[03:50] <eyequeue> !mp3 > manmadha
[03:50] <drakonen_> some1 knows an good easy cvs prog for ubuntu ? easy to use for an linux noob plz ^^
[03:50] <epitron> UKMatt: yeah, dapper is the shiznit
[03:50] <Elephant> I recommend subversion
[03:50] <UKMatt> epitron, now what about having a FAT32, i've heard thats bad and good
[03:51] <Elephant> It's meant to fix all of the flaws of cvs
[03:51] <Soccrmastr> maybe I need to ask a diffrent question now, because I am not even completely sure I was using right commands
[03:51] <rpedro> catadoxas, does it mention 'Mesa (...) indirect(...)' when you run fglrxinfo in a terminal?
[03:51] <manmadha> UKMatt, in local site when i clicked on the songs then automatically it is openning with totem
[03:51] <agt> Soccrmastr, whats the second error you get? asking for the cd again?
[03:51] <Elephant> UKMatt:  There's a win32 driver for reading ext3...hang on a sec...
[03:51] <VDR> /whois $me
[03:51] <catadoxas> hm
[03:51] <catadoxas> sec
[03:51] <UKMatt> elephant, i've heard of it, is it reliable
[03:51] <Soccrmastr> well no, the second error is like, hdc: drive not ready
[03:51] <Soccrmastr> or soemthing
[03:52] <UKMatt> elephant, it popped up on digg a month or two ago
[03:52] <manmadha> eyequeue, to listen the songs in localsite (automatically openning with totem when clicked on it....)
[03:52] <catadoxas> i only ran it with | grep rendering
[03:52] <Soccrmastr> after I install xubuntu, and log in, what commands should be used to start up the inerface
[03:52] <drakonen_> hmmm?
[03:52] <catadoxas> yes
[03:53] <catadoxas> mesa indirekt
[03:53] <unity> epitron: what if i'm not running the jack soundserver, will it still work?
[03:53] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Did you install it on top of a server install you mean?
[03:53] <manmadha> UKMatt, eyequeue but it can play the mp3 songs in my system.....plz help me
[03:53] <UKMatt> And also, I put on VMWare Server edition to take a look at SUSE, for me to get rid of that, what do i do?
[03:53] <catadoxas> display: :0.0  screen: 0
[03:53] <catadoxas> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[03:53] <catadoxas> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[03:53] <catadoxas> OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
[03:53] <catadoxas> thats my outout
[03:53] <Soccrmastr> No, I installed off the disc, but it had to install in low memory mode
[03:53] <drakonen_> hmmm seams not ok back to google lol
[03:53] <UKMatt> manmadha, what can't it play?
[03:54] <rpedro> catadoxas, there is an howto at ubuntuforums.org that will maybe help you fix that problem, at least it worked for me. Search for 'ati mesa issue' and you'll probably found it
[03:54] <unity> epitron: apparently not. i have no soundserver running afaik, then is this not possible?
[03:54] <Elephant> UKM:  I'm not sure about reliability, but it looks to be worth checking out
[03:54] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: And you don't get a pretty login screen by default when you boot?  Just a command line?
[03:54] <Soccrmastr> just command line
[03:54] <catadoxas> thx a lot
[03:54] <rpedro> catadoxas, DON'T paste here!
[03:54] <UKMatt> elephant, yeah, i'd imagine it isn't the best, so it seems just more straight forward to partition
[03:55] <loststar4545> i want test thos microphone i have what program can i use to record  my voice
[03:55] <Elephant> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[03:55] <Soccrmastr> but I am supposed tot ype command to open the interface according to the guide on ubuntu website
[03:55] <rpedro> !pastebin > catadoxas
[03:55] <Elephant> Soccrmastr:  If you have the GUI stuff installed, type "startx" after you've logged in
[03:55] <manmadha> In our local site he put some songs in mp3 format.....when i clicked on it it is openning with totem displaying the error""no input plugins to handle this....""
[03:55] <Soccrmastr> says, use xserver, or startxfce4 but neither work
[03:55] <rpedro> catadoxas, np ;)
[03:55] <catadoxas> :)
[03:56] <Soccrmastr> startx doesnt work either
[03:56] <manmadha> UKMatt, In our local site he put some songs in mp3 format.....when i clicked on it it is openning with totem displaying the error""no input plugins to handle this....""
[03:56] <RamiKassab> hey guys, is it better to install php4 or php5 for apache2? I saw some articles online outlining how to run both (one as a module and the other as cgi) but what is the benefit behind doing this? Thanks guys!
[03:56] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: To get the login manager (I'm going to guess it uses XDM), try 'sudo /etc/init.d/xdm start'.
[03:56] <catadoxas> what ubuntu forums do you mean
[03:56] <catadoxas> on the user contributed I dont find anything
[03:56] <iturk> hi there !! how can i set the locales using some bash commands ??
[03:56] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Does the command startx exist and not work or not exist?
[03:57] <Soccrmastr> says command not found
[03:57] <Soccrmastr> for both
[03:57] <ardchoille> Soccrmastr: Are you typing start x or startx ?
[03:57] <rpedro> catadoxas, the first page
[03:57] <Soccrmastr> I migth ahve emssed up when editing the soruce lsit
[03:57] <rpedro> catadoxas, do a search
[03:57] <Soccrmastr> Im using startx
[03:57] <drakonen_> some1 knows an good easy cvs prog for ubuntu ? easy to use for an linux noob plz ^^
[03:57] <rockzman> can anyone support me with cedega?
[03:57] <eyequeue> iturk, sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[03:57] <catadoxas> found it sorry im kinda tired
[03:57] <catadoxas> :)
[03:58] <Soccrmastr> In the tutorial on ubuntu.com guide I mess up at this step: Uncomment the universe repository line (search for universe and uncomment that line by deleting the '#' character) (use 'x' to delete a character in vim)
[03:58] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: This does not sound good...  Everything seemed to go okay during the install though?
[03:58] <iturk> eyequeue: i used before and i can only set time !! how can i set language also ??
[03:58] <rpedro> catadoxas, if I were you, I would maybe skip to the troubleshooting section and save a couple of reboots
[03:58] <foo> Is there anyway I can tell rsvt that I have a dark background like in vim? When I do ls the dir's are blue and it's kind of hard to read.
[03:58] <rockzman> can anyone support me with cedega?
[03:58] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Could you give a link to the tutorial you're referring to so I can see it?
[03:59] <eyequeue> iturk, ?
[03:59] <rpedro> rockzman, /join #cedega
[03:59] <rockzman> rpedro: vlw
[03:59] <rpedro> rockzman, ?
[04:00] <rockzman> rpedro: i thought u were from brazil because ur nick name is a brazilian name ^^
[04:00] <rockzman> then i spoke br rpedro
[04:00] <Soccrmastr> ok now during install, first it went to low memory installation, OK good, continue. Then I get, CD error or soemthing, something about release file not found. so ic ontinued and everythign stillw ent fine

[04:00] <UKMatt> whats the bash for removing a program?
[04:01] <UKMatt> I have VMware and can't get it off through synaptic
[04:01] <Elephant> rm filename
[04:01] <eyequeue> UKMatt, dpkg --purge foo
[04:01] <Soccrmastr> CDROM does not seem to contain a valid 'release' file, or that file could not be read correctly
[04:01] <Soccrmastr> thats the error i get
[04:01] <Elephant> err, listen to eyequeue - my reply applies to single files
[04:01] <eyequeue> UKMatt, sudo dpkg --purge foo
[04:01] <iturk> eyequeue: http://pastebin.ca/133719

[04:03] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:03] <tich> snoops, when i try to run certain features amarok tries to open a kde app how do i change what app it loads?
[04:03] <eyequeue> UKMatt, sudo dpkg --purge packagename
[04:03] <GoonSquad> hey
[04:03] <krazykit> prophet, valknut
[04:03] <snoops> which features tich?
[04:03] <chakra85> UKMatt, i would go with the dpkg --purge; also, foo is sort of a generic standin for a name
[04:03] <GoonSquad> i installed ubuntu and im at the login screen everytime i try to login, it tells me "Administrators are not allowed to login at this screen" what do i do? I dont know any other pws
[04:04] <iturk> http://pastebin.ca/133719 <- can someone give me some help with this error ??
[04:04] <prophet> for some reason it keeps stitting at "waiting"
[04:04] <chakra85> so... anyone know alot about symlinks?
[04:04] <Brokenstein> im trying to set up xgl and i dont wanna assume its at PCI:1:0:0 but i dont know how to check
[04:04] <UKMatt> eyequeue, chakra85, i put it on a while ago and don't remember the package name, how do i pull taht up
[04:04] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Doing some reading...
[04:04] <Soccrmastr> ok thanks :\
[04:04] <GoonSquad> i installed ubuntu and im at the login screen everytime i try to login, it tells me "Administrators are not allowed to login at this screen" what do i do? I dont know any other pws
[04:04] <GoonSquad> i installed ubuntu and im at the login screen everytime i try to login, it tells me "Administrators are not allowed to login at this screen" what do i do? I dont know any other pws
[04:04] <eyequeue> iturk, it sounds like you don't have the pt package installed, but i don't know their names
[04:04] <justin_> GoonSquad: DO not flood too much.. wait a little bit before asking again, c'mon..
[04:04] <krazykit> GoonSquad, no need to spam.  try logging in as your regular user rather than as root
[04:05] <iturk> eyequeue: i will check
[04:05] <GoonSquad> krazykit thats th eonly account info tha ti know
[04:05] <Clinton__> Anyone have a URL to the recommended and up to date method of installing w32codecs?
[04:05] <snoops> tich, isn't the only thing it opens externally is konqueror? Which can naturally be changed in settings>configur amarok>general
[04:05] <ikaruga> hello all
[04:05] <chakra85> UKMatt, how important is it to use the bash command. can you just use the synaptic package manager?
[04:05] <GoonSquad> krazykit thats the account info and passworsd i set
[04:05] <GoonSquad> root
[04:05] <eyequeue> iturk, if you find them, install them and it should clear itself up
[04:05] <krazykit> GoonSquad, then drop to a virtual terminal, log in as root there, and make yourself a regular user.
[04:05] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: The guide talks about starting from an Ubuntu server install - did you do that, or get a Xubuntu CD instead of an Ubuntu one?
[04:05] <UKMatt> chakra85, its not at all, i removed everything i could find in synaptic though and its still there
[04:05] <krazykit> GoonSquad, by that, i mean make a new user that isn't root.
[04:05] <salah> what is the default password of mysql?
[04:06] <Soccrmastr> I started at stepm 5 because I installed from CD
[04:06] <GoonSquad> krazykit how
[04:06] <eyequeue> iturk, #ubuntu-pt may know
[04:06] <GoonSquad> i cant even get pass th elogin screen
[04:06] <chakra85> UKMatt, ooh... ok, i have no idea then. i'm sort of a beginner too
[04:06] <Maper-Nit> use "automatix" to instal w32codes
[04:06] <Soccrmastr> but I also screwed up bad at Step 5
[04:06] <Clinton__> Maper-Nit: thank you
[04:06] <justin_> Ahh.. I get it now..
[04:06] <tich> snoops, yeah it seems to only be the browser, i didn't see that setting before but i'll check it out again.
[04:06] <krazykit> GoonSquad, log in in a virtual terminal: hit ctrl-alt-f2 and log in there.
[04:06] <justin_> It is because I have file names that are too long to display horizontally :D
[04:07] <UKMatt> Ha so did anyone see the Mac WWDC, they announced "Spaces" and I was like - pshh, UB has had that, keep up Steve
[04:07] <GoonSquad> i pressed that and i only get a blinkin cursor..
[04:07] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Which CD, how exactly did you install, and how did you screw up at 5?
[04:07] <ardchoille> justin_: try ls -l ?
[04:07] <wrightplace> salah usually there is no default mysql password
[04:07] <justin_> Yup, I was right :)
[04:07] <justin_> ardchoille: I found the problem, my file names were too long so .. they displayed vertically instead.
[04:07] <justin_> fixed :)
[04:08] <ardchoille> ok :)
[04:08] <GoonSquad> krazykit whats another way to do it
[04:08] <Soccrmastr> xubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[04:08] <Soccrmastr> to a CD
[04:08] <chakra85> can you override a file using a ln -s? i.e. if a file exists, but i don't want to use a different file of the same name instead.
[04:08] <ikaruga> i'm having problems w/ dapper. Breezy was running fine. I'm running all the same progs as before but now it hangs when I leave the CPU alone. I'm not running nothing fancy:
[04:08] <ikaruga> office: scribus, adobe, lyx, texmacs
[04:08] <ikaruga> multimedia: amarok, qdvdauthor
[04:08] <ikaruga> internet: didwiki, apache2, php4
[04:08] <ikaruga> The only new thing I'm doing is using aptitude + graphics accel. (nvidia drivers)
[04:08] <krazykit> GoonSquad, chroot into your system from a liveCD and make a new user from there
[04:08] <Soccrmastr> and at step 5 I wasnt sure which # to delete, so i deleted a couple random things bya ccident, then some things happened, so i just shut down lol
[04:08] <tich> snoops, the browser doesn't seem to be an option in the general tab.
[04:09] <Soccrmastr> and after I put on Cd I did OEM install
[04:09] <alakriti> chakra85: what are you trying to do?
[04:09] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Why OEM?
[04:09] <Soccrmastr> which went into the low memory install
[04:09] <Soccrmastr> OEM I wasnt sure, a friend told me to
[04:09] <Soccrmastr> but that friend only used ubntu not xubuntu so he said he wasnt sure
[04:09] <GoonSquad> krazykit
[04:09] <GoonSquad> ok
[04:09] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Do you have anything significant invested in this install so far that makes you hesitant to just redo it?
[04:09] <GoonSquad> im in as root
[04:09] <GoonSquad> in a bash screen
[04:09] <GoonSquad> what command can i type
[04:09] <GoonSquad> to get a new
[04:09] <GoonSquad> account
[04:10] <Soccrmastr> no id ont care I can redo it
[04:10] <eyequeue> !rootsudo > GoonSquad
[04:10] <Soccrmastr> ill try to do it again
[04:10] <drakonen_> some1 knows an good easy cvs prog for ubuntu ? easy to use for an linux noob plz ^^
[04:10] <krazykit> GoonSquad, the enter key is not the spacebar.  check out the man page for adduser
[04:10] <chakra85> alakriti, i have a file that i need to customize, but everytime i upgrade the program it overwrites the customized file
[04:10] <Soccrmastr> ok reinstalling now
[04:10] <Soccrmastr> use OEM install?
[04:11] <chakra85> alakriti, so i want to just point to another file instead of having to deal with the copy/paste everytime i upgrade
[04:11] <eyequeue> no oem
[04:11] <chakra85> alakriti, this isn't super important or anything, because it's only one file... but i'd like to know if it's possible
[04:11] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Okay, here's the deal: That guide is meant for people that don't have the specific Xubuntu install CD, which allows you to use one of the ShipIt ones, but is much more complicated.  If you already have the ISO you said burned, you should be able to just ignore pretty much all of that.  I don't think you need to do OEM, but maybe check if there are other special options that point you to a low-memory mode.
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> theres text mode install
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> and install a server
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: You should be able to just put the CD in, tell it a few quick things after saying low-mem, let it do it's thing, and reboot after it tells you to and be set to go.
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> ya that happened
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Don't bother with server.  Just normal.
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> with OEM
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> but then it open to command line
[04:12] <eyequeue> Soccrmastr, text mode
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> so text install
[04:12] <Soccrmastr> k
[04:12] <alakriti> i still think im confused. so you have a file /usr/bin/application  this is being upgraded by your distro. but you need to use a different version of this file?
[04:13] <tonyyarusso> eyequeue: Is text mode install off the alternate the same as a "lom memory" install do you know?
[04:13] <ikaruga> anyone else had problems with dapper freezing? I know it's a bit of a vague problem but the last thing I want to do is painstakingly reinstall everything.
[04:13] <eyequeue> tonyyarusso, i know oem on the alternate causes hangs, but text mode worked :)
[04:13] <Soccrmastr> still get low memory emssage but continuing
[04:14] <eyequeue> tonyyarusso, i think text mode had an option for lowmem, not the default
[04:14] <wrightplace> ikaruga I did have some problems of freezing when I tried KDE on ubuntu, after getting rid of ALL of it, no more problems
[04:14] <tonyyarusso> eyequeue: Ah, I see.
[04:14] <alakriti> chakra85: or you are using this application in a different folder with customized config files etc. and you just need the application in this directory to symbolically point to the version that gets upgraded?
[04:15] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: Do you see options for that install in the text-mode?
[04:15] <wrightplace> still need to get rid of startup splash screen
[04:15] <ikaruga> wrightplace: thanx rightplace, but I'm using GNOME
[04:15] <Soccrmastr> yes it looks exactly the same
[04:15] <Soccrmastr> as OEM
[04:15] <steve_Laptop> were postfix parameter setting
[04:15] <Soccrmastr> still getting the CD DOES nto contain valid 'release' file
[04:15] <Soccrmastr> I am even using a new CD re-burned one
[04:16] <ardchoille> Soccrmastr: I'd guess it is a bad burn
[04:16] <chakra85> alakriti, was there a first part to that? "or are you using this app..."
[04:16] <Soccrmastr> then after that I click continue, I get, "An instalaltion step has failed, he failign step is: Detect and mount CD-ROM"
[04:16] <eyequeue> or a bad iso d/l
[04:16] <bruenig> Soccrmastr, did you check the md5?
[04:16] <ikaruga> could the nvidia legacy drivers cause hanging? It seems to work fine---3D games run fine. Could the screensaver be causing it to freeze?
[04:16] <Soccrmastr> but after I try again it just does it fine
[04:16] <alakriti> chakra85: <alakriti> i still think im confused. so you have a file /usr/bin/application  this is being upgraded by your distro. but you need to use a different version of this file?
[04:16] <Soccrmastr> md5 um.... no
[04:17] <bruenig> Soccrmastr, if downloaded the iso via http or ftp, you probably ought to check its md5sum
[04:17] <bruenig> !iso > Soccrmastr
[04:17] <Soccrmastr> how lol??
[04:17] <heinouskyle> help me
[04:17] <ikaruga> is there some kind of debug program I can run to find the cause of the hanging?
[04:17] <Soccrmastr> !iso
[04:17] <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
[04:17] <chakra85> alakriti, so i have a file  /var/www/local/settings.php, there is an application at /var/www/site/app/settings.php
[04:18] <heinouskyle> i'm not able to use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the cursor in text
[04:18] <phiber_optic> any ideas why when I download ubuntu when I do the checksum its not the same
[04:18] <bruenig> heinouskyle, what program?
[04:18] <heinouskyle> in all applications
[04:18] <phiber_optic> its like the 7th time that I downalod
[04:19] <eyequeue> phiber_optic, 6.06.1?
[04:19] <alakriti> so you want /var/www/site/app/settings.php to point to /var/www/local/settings.php ?
[04:19] <alakriti> chakra85: so you want /var/www/site/app/settings.php to point to /var/www/local/settings.php ?
[04:19] <heinouskyle> breunig, i don't even know where to start in solving this problem
[04:20] <Soccrmastr> im also not sure if I need to add "exclude port 0x800-0x8ff" says used for msot dell laptops which i am using
[04:20] <justin_> !ati
[04:20] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:20] <Soccrmastr> but I added it anyway
[04:20] <bruenig> heinouskyle, assuming your arrow keys actually work which unless you can verify that with another OS might not be true, I can't imagine why it wouldn't work unless you have some weird keyboard that x couldn't recognize or gave you a bad driver for
[04:20] <heinouskyle> i was using them to play games earlier in windows
[04:20] <alakriti> chakra86: ln -s /var/www/local/settings.php /var/www/site/app/settins.php , if that is what you are trying to do. then essentially they are the same file. if you operate on the symlink you are operating on the orignal file.
[04:21] <heinouskyle> i have a standard keyboard too
[04:22] <rgg> hi,can someone help me with a problem with open office...without telling me to go to #openoffice.org?
[04:22] <rgg> or,am i even allowed to ask questions about OO here?
[04:22] <heinouskyle> bruenig, i'm pretty sure it has something to do with gnome keyboard shortcuts because earlier i tried to set up the shortcuts for media
[04:23] <heinouskyle> like using the pause button to pause/play my music
[04:23] <foo> err, I am getting this; The following packages have unmet dependencies: mplayer-nogui: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable
[04:23] <foo> E: Broken packages
[04:23] <foo> Any ideas?
[04:23] <chakra85> alakriti, does it work the other way? if i operate on the original file with that change the symlink?
[04:23] <rgg> i am running ubuntu,and on #openoffice.org nobody answers then... :P
[04:23] <bruenig> heinouskyle, well disable the shortcuts, that is probably it, you assigned the arrow keys to perform that function and now they wont work in other functions
[04:23] <heinouskyle> i did that already, bruenig, but still no good
[04:24] <heinouskyle> even after a restart
[04:24] <chakra85> alakriti, because if it doesn't, i can upgrade the app without worrying about the customized file right?
[04:24] <heinouskyle> i don't know what else i could possible try
[04:24] <bruenig> you clicked on every shortcut and hit backspace?
[04:24] <flasher> in abiword, how do i do that horizontal line that goes from end to end? Am needing it for a resume
[04:24] <heinouskyle> most of the shortcuts i cleared
[04:24] <alakriti> chakra85: is you open the symlink in a browser it is actually opening the orignal. so if you make changes to it, its modifying the orignal
[04:24] <bruenig> do all of them,
[04:25] <bruenig> unless you are need them and are absolutely certain they don't conflict
[04:25] <heinouskyle> i just cleared everything
[04:25] <chakra85> alakriti, oh, ok... so there's no way to *override* the original with a symlink
[04:25] <bruenig> try
[04:25] <heinouskyle> still isn't working
[04:25] <robertj> flasher: I don't know anything about Abi Word but you might search the help file for "Horizontal Rule"
[04:25] <heinouskyle> do i have to restart gnome or X?
[04:25] <bruenig> heinouskyle, you could try to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and accept all of the defaults, that is all I got left
[04:25] <flasher> sorry, i accidentaly shut down this ubuntu chat room window. if you had sain something about abiword and making lines, pls say so again
[04:25] <flasher> robertj: thanks
[04:26] <bruenig> is abiword better
[04:26] <bruenig> than openoffice
[04:26] <alakriti> chakra85: so what you are trying to do is replace all the files in the install directory except that one?
[04:26] <heinouskyle> thanks, bruenig, i'm sure i'll get it sorted eventually
[04:26] <robertj> bruenig: is a train better than a car?
[04:26] <eyequeue> flasher, in html, it is <hr> you might try that?
[04:26] <chakra85> alakriti, yeah
[04:26] <flasher> bruenig: i don't know, but it's what comes wih xubuntu
[04:26] <unix> lo all
[04:26] <ardchoille> chakra85: The only thing a symlink does is point to the original file, then the synlinks' job is done.
[04:26] <tonyyarusso> Soccrmastr: How's the md5 check coming?
[04:26] <bruenig> no
[04:26] <unix> why no ops around ?
[04:26] <Soccrmastr> havent donme it yet heh sorry
[04:26] <eyequeue> unix, freenode
[04:26] <Soccrmastr> was tryign tor einstall first
[04:26] <robertj> unix: they were all ircing as root and got banned
[04:26] <bruenig> a train is set to a track
[04:26] <bruenig> cars can go anywhere
[04:26] <ardchoille> unix: They're incognito ;)
[04:27] <eyequeue> unix, no need to oper until something comes up
[04:27] <flasher> eyequeue: when i type that, i just see the code! 8-)
[04:27] <flasher> eyequeue: what am i doing wrong?
[04:27] <foo> err, I am getting this; The following packages have unmet dependencies: mplayer-nogui: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable .. broken packages. I am on ubuntu, any ideas?
[04:27] <chakra85> alakriti, i see. well thanks for teaching me all about symlinks.. haha. i guess my attempt at being lazy failed
[04:27] <chakra85> alakriti, thanks for trying though
[04:27] <eyequeue> flasher, abiword might not interpret html unless in a special mode?
[04:27] <FunnyLookinHat> foo, you probably just need to update your /etc/apt/sources.list file...
[04:28] <eyequeue> flasher, abiword might not interpret html at all, i don't know
[04:28] <foo> FunnyLookinHat: with what?
[04:28] <FunnyLookinHat> foo, Could you paste what that file currently has for me in paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:28] <ubuntu__> can u get to hard disk from liveCD bootup?
[04:28] <FunnyLookinHat> foo, to see it's contents, simply type "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" in a terminal window
[04:28] <bruenig> it looks like the error might indicate that installing libggi2 is necessary depedency but that it would conflict with something else you already have or that it is not in any of your sources
[04:30] <alakriti> chakra85: you could always symlink all the files in the directory to the application directory *except* for the settings.php so that when you overwrite them it works
[04:30] <heinouskyle> i've just gixed my problem
[04:30] <flasher> eyequeue: http://www.abisource.com/help/en-US/howto/howtoweb.html
[04:30] <heinouskyle> i had to restart Gnome or the X server, dont' know which
[04:30] <technel> When I run the command: "tar -czvf 08-15-2006.tar.gz /home/michael/sapp", it creates the tar/gz file, except it adds in the /home/michael/sapp directories. I want the "sapp" directory to be the first directory after you extract the archive...what am I doing wrong?
[04:30] <dribble> anybody know of a gstreamer10 applet that does cross codec conversions?
[04:30] <chakra85> alakriti, interesting... so install the app in a different place and symlink everythign except settings.php
[04:31] <ych> help, how do i shutdown my computer? it doesnt have an xserver, and when i do halt it says i must be superuser
[04:31] <chakra85> alakriti, i'll try that. thanks
[04:31] <flasher> and there is a web layout
[04:31] <alakriti> chakra85: yeah
[04:31] <ych> sudo doesnt help
[04:31] <ardchoille> technel: cd /home/michael and then do the tar command
[04:31] <bruenig> ych, do sudo shutdown -h now
[04:31] <technel> ardchoille, Yeah, but then I have to do "-f /my/long/directory/for/backups/08-15-2006.tar.gz sapp" :(
[04:32] <ych> thanks
[04:32] <ych> and im off to bed ;)
[04:32] <ardchoille> technel: cd /home/michael && tar czvf 08-15-2006.tar.gz sapp
[04:33] <eyequeue> !away
[04:33] <sycron> Ok, so I just took the leap of faith.
[04:33] <ubotu> Please don't use public away messages or change your nick to 'someone|away'.  We know you're away when you don't respond to messages. Also see !guidelines
[04:33] <ardchoille> technel: sorry, do this:  cd /home/michael && tar czvf /some/path/08-15-2006.tar.gz sapp
[04:33] <sycron> Windows is gone forever, no dual-boot or anything.
[04:33] <FunnyLookinHat> sycron, YES!
[04:33] <ardchoille> sycron: YAY! :)
[04:33] <technel> ardchoille, Yeah, ok ... thanks
[04:33] <sycron> Thanks
[04:34] <sycron> Alright, first newbie question. How do I add mp3 support?
[04:35] <ardchoille> !RestrictedFormats
[04:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about RestrictedFormats - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:35] <eyequeue> !mp3 > sycron
[04:35] <angel12> where does apt-get download files?
[04:35] <eyequeue> angel12, /var/cache/apt/archives/
[04:35] <ardchoille> angel12: downloads them from the online repos to /etc/apt/archives/
[04:35] <ardchoille> oops
[04:36] <sycron> Many thanks
[04:36] <angel12> awesome thanks guys
[04:36] <ardchoille> angel12: downloads them from the online repos to /var/cache/apt/archives/
[04:36] <phiber_optic> does anybody know why when I download somthing the md5 is not the same?
[04:36] <casltewindxx> Hello everyone, I am looking to customize my shell
[04:36] <ardchoille> !away > eno
[04:36] <casltewindxx> I just loaded ubuntu
[04:36] <phiber_optic> and Ive tried to download more than 5 times from different mirrios
[04:37] <ardchoille> phiber_optic: What are you using to download?
[04:37] <phiber_optic> right now im in windows
[04:37] <phiber_optic> so im using the webbroser
[04:37] <ardchoille> heh, figures
[04:38] <casltewindxx> do I need to surce bash.bashrc from .profile or profile
[04:38] <casltewindxx> I have just cat bash.bashrc and its in a if statement already...
[04:38] <TheGame> sup
[04:38] <bruenig> castlewindxx, not much into customizing shell, but I remember editing ~/.bashrc for a few aliases if that is what you mean
[04:39] <phiber_optic> archoille any hints??
[04:40] <ardchoille> No, sorry, I haven't touched Windows since 1999
[04:40] <bruenig> havent touched at all?
[04:40] <bruenig> that seems unlikely
[04:40] <bruenig> no school or work or anything
[04:40] <eyequeue> bruenig, why?  i never did
[04:41] <ardchoille> bruenig: I haven't touched Windows since 1999.. I can do everything I need to do in Ubuntu, no need for Windows
[04:41] <meuserj> yeah, I've barely touched windows since like 98
[04:41] <flasher> too bad abiword can't save files as pdf. 8- (
[04:41] <bruenig> I touched it today at school, seems like if you ever use any other computer, you are likely to have to use windows, I only use it when I have to, when it is on somebody else's computer
[04:41] <TheGame> have u guys seen the orange ubuntu wallpaper thats a copy of the mac wallpaper
[04:42] <phiber_optic> any other ideas why when I download its corrupted?
[04:42] <ardchoille> bruenig: That's what LiveCD's are for ;)
[04:42] <eyequeue> bruenig, you may need to burn yourself a livecd to carry ;)
[04:42] <bruenig> phiber_optic, used bittorrent
[04:42] <flasher> is there an online service that can transform an abiword file OR a doc file into PDF?
[04:42] <JDStone> I'm having problems with xserver
[04:42] <eyequeue> ardchoille, heh
[04:42] <unkn0wn2u> my sound card doesn't work after i upgraded to 6.06 i modpobed snd_vi82xx and dmesg doesnt show too much
[04:42] <JDStone> I'm getting errors when trying to start X
[04:42] <flasher> eyequeue: i can save abiword file as html. so maybe i'l add <hr> into the html formatted file. thanks for the tip
[04:42] <bruenig> ardchoille, not sure the librarian would like to see my booting a disk on the school's computer as incompetent as she is, she is still likely to pick up on that
[04:43] <xceptiona1> I just installed ubuntu on a windows xp home computer, after the install it had me remove the cd and reboot...but it just boots back to windows home, it doesnt go to GRUB?
[04:43] <eyequeue> flasher, yeah, view it with lynx or something to confirm i have it right of course
[04:43] <bruenig> ubuntu's live cd is a bit slow, I could use one of the faster one's I suppose and carry it with me, like dreamlinux or the like
[04:44] <ardchoille> bruenig: If I can't use Linux (be it a LiveCD or an installed Ubuntu system) I won't use the computer.
[04:44] <eyequeue> bruenig, for me, i think i'd just need ssh on one, then ssh to home, not sure if that's an option for you or not
[04:44] <bruenig> JDStone, what is the error
[04:46] <tonyyarusso> I'm looking for someone who's used a digital projector.  Re: tty vs. X output.
[04:46] <JDStone> bruenig: could not open default font 'fixed'
[04:46] <bruenig> not an option for me unfortunately as we can't put disks in the computers, I think they fear viruses
[04:46] <xceptiona1> any ideas how to get GRUB to override XP Home?
[04:46] <eyequeue> !grub
[04:46] <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
[04:47] <ardchoille> bruenig: Well, they're not very intelligent then.. maybe you should enlighten them about Ubuntu :)
[04:47] <bruenig> Using Internet Explorer was great though, no tabs or anything
[04:47] <bruenig> didn't have to deal with the headache of multiple tabs and complexities they bring
[04:47] <azureal> bruenig, sarcasm
[04:47] <azureal> your sarcasm is drowning me ;)
[04:47] <ardchoille> lol
[04:48] <MrParanoia> well, i just installed utbuntu 6.06 but it didn't allow me to set a root password - so, i can't do any root operations
[04:48] <eyequeue> !rootsudo > MrParanoia
[04:48] <ardchoille> !rootsudo > MrParanoia
[04:48] <xceptiona1> anyone know how to fix windows overriding grub?
[04:48] <eyequeue> MrParanoia, we don't want root in ubuntu
[04:48] <bruenig> ardchoille, yeah I kind of think it unlikely for them to change as there are probably 400+ computers in the school and they all run windows attendance software and even if I told them about linux, they would probably say "so this runs in windows or what?"
[04:48] <eyequeue> !grub > xceptiona1
[04:48] <MrParanoia> how do i set the time then?
[04:49] <JDStone> bruenig: the error is "could not open default font 'fixed'"
[04:49] <eyequeue> MrParanoia, read the page the bot sent you
[04:49] <McNutella> hello, if some ass gets comfy on my wifi network, is there anything i can do to mess their system up a little for fun ?
[04:49] <bruenig> JDStone, no idea
[04:49] <azureal> MrParanoia, there's a way to set up root if you want ;)
[04:49] <MrParanoia> only rot, sudo or su will do that
[04:49] <ardchoille> MrParanoia: Please read the links ubotu sent you
[04:49] <bruenig> I know fonts is at System>Preferences>fonts
[04:49] <MrParanoia> rot == root
[04:49] <JDStone> ok, thanks bruenig
[04:49] <azureal> *cough* sudo su *cough cough*
[04:49] <bruenig> maybe mess around in there
[04:49] <ardchoille> azureal: Please don't tell people how to enable the root account. It's not supported config and can cause problems later
[04:49] <MrParanoia> ardchoille> i didn't get it
[04:49] <eyequeue> azureal, that is deprecated in this channel, please don't advise that
[04:50] <ardchoille> !rootsudo
[04:50] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:50] <azureal> it is?!
[04:50] <eyequeue> azureal, very
[04:50] <azureal> what kind of debian system is this =)
[04:50] <eyequeue> azureal, ubuntu
[04:50] <eyequeue> azureal, different design criteria, i guess you'd say
[04:50] <azureal> that was actually one of my few caveats
[04:51] <JDStone> what's ubuntu's X11 font package?
[04:51] <azureal> the whole sudo emphasis was not...pleasing to me
[04:51] <useruser> my only monitor is broken, and I want to erase my hard disk over ssh. how can i do that?
[04:51] <eyequeue> azureal, i think the "no open ports" was another
[04:51] <bruenig> azureal, you can always do sudo su
[04:51] <azureal> bruenig, i can also 'su'
[04:52] <bruenig> indeed, those 5 characters are tough on the hands
[04:52] <azureal> i might actually disable sudo su..
[04:52] <useruser> or better yet, is it possible to do a headless installation over ssh?
[04:52] <MrParanoia> ardchoille> thanks - this is certainly different from mandriva
[04:52] <kyefun> anyone had experience with bluetooth file browsing on linux?
[04:52] <unkn0wn2u> whats the difference between doing sudo su and su ,, root is root
[04:52] <ardchoille> MrParanoia: Indeed.. it's much better ;)
[04:52] <azureal> sudo su goes into a log somewhere
[04:53] <MrParanoia> now, i need to get my wireless card setup
[04:53] <eyequeue> see where this discussion leads? :(
[04:53] <bruenig> precious disk space
[04:53] <azureal> su --> root password      sudo su --> your passwd
[04:53] <chatterman> hello i need help, ubuntu root password ?
[04:53] <ardchoille> unkn0wn2u: You shouldn't be able to su  because the root account is disabled
[04:53] <eyequeue> chatterman, NO NO NO
[04:53] <eyequeue> !rootsudo > chatterman
[04:53] <chatterman> why not ?
[04:53] <unkn0wn2u> ardchoille, no i enabled mine
[04:53] <ardchoille> chatterman: use sudo
[04:53] <azureal> ardchoille, what do you mean, disabled
[04:53] <eyequeue> chatterman, read the link
[04:53] <ardchoille> !rootsudo
[04:53] <selfharm> can someone help me share a printer installed on ubuntu server on my windows network? i have printer installed on dapper, all is well. just need to share
[04:53] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:53] <bruenig> chatterman, precede all commands that you need root for with 'sudo' then enter your user password
[04:54] <ardchoille> Read the rootsudo link folks, it explains it there
[04:54] <chatterman> thats it ?
[04:54] <eyequeue> chatterman, read the link, yes
[04:54] <MrParanoia> but, i don't like using a users password for doing admin functions
[04:54] <bruenig> is shuttleworth seriously asking for donations on the forums?
[04:55] <Celeste> I have an offtopic question - but I am ubuntu user *g*
[04:55] <chatterman> brb
[04:55] <azureal> ooh..new xine output... [mpeg4 @ 0xb653fc44] header damaged
[04:55] <ardchoille> MrParanoia: Sorry, that's the way Ubuntu handles admin tasks
[04:55] <eyequeue> !offtopic
[04:55] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:55] <unkn0wn2u> why is this room so psycho about sudo vs su who cares unless your a admin on an important server , I could run as root all the time on my desktop comp cause i dont care
[04:55] <Celeste> thank you eyequeue
[04:55] <azureal> MrParanoia, you'd have to look into configuring the sudoers file
[04:55] <eigenlambda> unkn0wn2u: maybe you could
[04:55] <stiv2k> how do i get lm-sensors working properly?  This guide i found on the forums doesn't work.
[04:55] <azureal> to set all your sudo needs
[04:55] <eigenlambda> but some people don't back up regularly
[04:55] <eyequeue> unkn0wn2u, you don't care means WE are attacked from your rooted box
[04:55] <TheGame> i dont back up regularly
[04:56] <TheGame> and i paid for it last night
[04:56] <ardchoille> eyequeue: Thank you :)
[04:56] <JDStone> how would I get Xserver working on ubuntu-server?
[04:56] <unkn0wn2u> eyequeue, thats what i'm worried about
[04:56] <eigenlambda> unkn0wn2u: if you really want su, just alias sudo -i to su or something
[04:56] <JDStone> what package(s) do I install?
[04:56] <useruser> will rm -rf / actually succeed in wiping my disk?
[04:56] <eyequeue> unkn0wn2u, you don't care means you are the cause of countless net troubles and should take yourself offline asap
[04:56] <ardchoille> useruser: Not every bit of it
[04:56] <useruser> ardchoille: is there a way to do that?
[04:56] <phiber_optic> what is the difference between ubuntu and slack?
[04:57] <stiv2k> !lmsensors
[04:57] <ubotu> You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[04:57] <ardchoille> useruser: What exactly are you trying to do?
[04:57] <useruser> ardchoille: wipe my disk
[04:57] <sproingie> phiber_optic: organization of files, the apt packaging system, the programs that come with it
[04:57] <Lane> I have two questions, is there a security channel for ubuntu that is populated, and is there a server channel for debian/ubuntu?
[04:57] <unkn0wn2u> eyequeue, your nuts my sudo account can be compromised too
[04:57] <useruser> ardchoille: i'm giving away my computer, don't want to leave anything around just in case
[04:57] <ardchoille> useruser: To what end? To have an empty disk?
[04:57] <eyequeue> unkn0wn2u, your apathy does not justify spewing bad security practices in here
[04:57] <ardchoille> useruser: Oh, ok, I understand now
[04:58] <phiber_optic> sproingie in what sense
[04:58] <phiber_optic> which is better?
[04:58] <phargle> useruser: soak it in peanut butter to get rid of everything
[04:58] <sproingie> phiber_optic: call me biased, being in #ubuntu, but i'll say ubuntu is better
[04:58] <azureal> useruser: just look into formatting
[04:58] <useruser> phargle: nono, it's meant to be usable :)
[04:58] <DShepherd> sproingie: your bias :-D
[04:58] <phargle> oh right, sorry :P
[04:58] <useruser> azureal: the snag is that my monitor is on the blink, so i have to be able to do it over ssh from my laptop
[04:58] <phiber_optic> sproingie i just want to hear why is better
[04:59] <nocti>  is there a way to copy files but automatically ignore those files that can't be read without doing a stat on them? thanks
[04:59] <phiber_optic> all i read in the web is slack is for the expert user rather than ubuntu for the noob
[04:59] <eigenlambda> which is better: windows 95 or ubuntu 6.06?
[04:59] <azureal> ubuntu
[04:59] <eyequeue> useruser, man dd if you want to get rid of file contents as well, not just the filenames
[04:59] <eigenlambda> phiber_optic: ubuntu is good for xpertz too
[04:59] <unkn0wn2u> eyequeue, glad to hear your spreading goodness everywhere by yelling dont use su , change the world one user at a time huh? , kinda like jesus
[04:59] <useruser> eyequeue: like dd /dev/zero + find?
[04:59] <bruenig> windows 3.1 is pretty much the same as ubuntu 6.06 as best as I can remember
[04:59] <azureal> eigenlambda, if you really want a challenge, try gentoo
[05:00] <dillbertdabomb> hard drive not mounting help!
[05:00] <eigenlambda> lol
[05:00] <sproingie> phiber_optic: slackware has nothing like apt (which ubuntu gets from debian)
[05:00] <ardchoille> phiber_optic: The only person who can answer that question is you. I use Ubuntu because I have never had to compile anything, the repos are huge, it's stable enough for me, apt-get is fast compared to others.
[05:00] <eyequeue> unkn0wn2u, troll elsewhere
[05:00] <eigenlambda> i got n00bed by gentoo
[05:00] <DShepherd> !offtopic
[05:00] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:00] <azureal> eigenlambda, first, you get to wait 9hrs while gentoo installs ;)
[05:00] <eigenlambda> ya
[05:00] <phiber_optic> in terems of learning linux
[05:00] <eigenlambda> i needed my computer up now, not in 9hrs
[05:00] <useruser> eyequeue: hm, man dd isn't too enlightening
[05:00] <phiber_optic> where will i learn more??
[05:00] <eigenlambda> phiber_optic: u will learn more in ubuntu
[05:00] <useruser> phiber_optic: the rute book is good
[05:00] <eigenlambda> because you will learn at your own pase
[05:00] <azureal> phiber_optic, just practice.... any distro
[05:00] <eigenlambda> rather than giving up
[05:01] <dillbertdabomb> hard drive not mounting: help!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:01] <sproingie> phiber_optic: any distribution that says "you will learn linux by using it", run.  it means it's broken, and you'll learn about fixing it
[05:01] <rockzman> can someone tell me how can i mount my partition to write on windows partitions
[05:01] <dillbertdabomb> hard drive not mounting: help!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:01] <kyeyekkarn> What's the best wa to set up a local network between an XP and a Ubuntu box?
[05:01] <sproingie> phiber_optic: the only distribution about the deep organizational voodoo of a linux distribution is Linux From Scratch
[05:01] <phiber_optic> the thing before i was using ubuntu but I sensed that I dint learn much
[05:01] <useruser> sproingie: the word run is highly ambiguous in that first sentence :P
[05:01] <phiber_optic> :(
[05:01] <ardchoille> rockzman: Are the Windows partitions NTFS?
[05:01] <phiber_optic> although i really liked it
[05:01] <rockzman> ardchoille: yea sure
[05:01] <eyequeue> useruser, you worried about criminal investigations?  or just a general wipe of the drive?
[05:02] <eigenlambda> giving n00bs choices is a recipe for disaster.  Rather, you should give them good defaults, make every change they make recoverable, and /then/ give them choices when you've told them what the differences are
[05:02] <useruser> sproingie: run away or run it?
[05:02] <sproingie> useruser: heh, good catch
[05:02] <dillbertdabomb> hard drive not mounting: help!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:02] <phiber_optic> so i research it on the net and everybody says slack its the way
[05:02] <sproingie> useruser: depends if you're a masochist or not :)
[05:02] <ardchoille> !tell dillbertdabomb about patience
[05:02] <eigenlambda> useruser: your ubuntu is running
[05:02] <dillbertdabomb> hard drive not mounting: help!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:02] <useruser> eyequeue: general wipe would be good enough, but just deleting partitions would leave me uncomfortable
[05:02] <foo> err, I am getting this; The following packages have unmet dependencies: mplayer-nogui: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable .. broken packages. I am on ubuntu, any ideas?
[05:02] <azureal> rockzman, just create a fat32 partition... it's hard to write to ntfs
[05:02] <DShepherd> please.... guys talk your offtopic to #ubuntu-offtopic.. this is an ubuntu support channel
[05:02] <useruser> eyequeue: yes, i'm running ubuntu on the victim box
[05:02] <ardchoille> dillbertdabomb: chill, someone will answer if they know
[05:02] <coasterdude90> hey I'm having problems installing ubuntu
[05:02] <dillbertdabomb> ok
[05:02] <DShepherd> s/talk/take
[05:02] <eyequeue> useruser, dd if=/dev/zero of=wherever :)
[05:03] <bruenig> coasterdude90, what is the problem
[05:03] <useruser> eyequeue: what's the wherever though?
[05:03] <rockzman> azureal: i need to fix my windows partiition
[05:03] <eigenlambda> hm.  not mounting?  lots of possible problems... does your computer even know its there?
[05:03] <dillbertdabomb> yep
[05:03] <useruser> eyequeue: i suspect it'll bomb if i use /dev/hda1, since that's mounted...
[05:03] <eigenlambda> is it not mounting 'cause it failed a consistency check?
[05:03] <coasterdude90> when I I'm installing it gives me this error on I/O
[05:03] <coasterdude90> buffer
[05:03] <eyequeue> useruser, /dev/hdb7, orwhatever
[05:03] <ToHellWithGA> hep me hep me.  i would like to setup a mail exchanger (MX).  can it be any webpage on my apache server so long as it's formatted properly?
[05:03] <dillbertdabomb> i guess
[05:03] <dillbertdabomb> it says i cnat access it
[05:03] <azureal> rockzman, i'm pretty sure that writing to ntfs is considered buggy/unstable
[05:03] <sproingie> phiber_optic: slack has many fanboy types who extol it, but none of them will tell you it has anything in terms of convenience features
[05:03] <dillbertdabomb> to low privledge
[05:03] <useruser> eyequeue: yes, but the drive i want to wipe is /
[05:04] <eyequeue> useruser, only target the partition with dd on it last
[05:04] <eigenlambda> dillbertdabomb: ok
[05:04] <useruser> eyequeue: i'll try it anyway :)
[05:04] <rockzman> azureal: why would it be
[05:04] <eigenlambda> you need to sudo then
[05:04] <useruser> eyequeue: that's the only partition i want to wipe
[05:04] <sproingie> phiber_optic: at any rate, you can always just grab vmware player and a slackware image and try it yourself
[05:04] <phiber_optic> sproingie what do u mean
[05:04] <eigenlambda> yes, regular users aren't allowed to mount volumes
[05:04] <eigenlambda> only root can do that
[05:04] <eyequeue> useruser, it should load it into memory, run, then barf, lol
[05:04] <dillbertdabomb> ok tried it didn't work
[05:04] <Megaqwerty> How do I get the Synaptic Package Manager to display Alpha or Beta Packages?
[05:04] <useruser> eyequeue: excellent :)
[05:04] <DShepherd> eigenlambda: or users with admin privileges
[05:04] <dillbertdabomb> i dono the password
[05:05] <coasterdude90> bruenig I've burned it 3 times and downloaded it 3 times as well
[05:05] <useruser> eyequeue: damn, nearly nuked my laptop for a moment
[05:05] <coasterdude90> and still it has problems
[05:05] <sproingie> phiber_optic: we're really not into comparing distributions against each other here.  you pretty much have to try them out
[05:05] <eyequeue> useruser, lol, careful :)
[05:05] <Megaqwerty> anyone?
[05:05] <useruser> eyequeue: no go, it says permission denied even with sudo
[05:05] <azureal> rockzman, look https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[05:05] <phiber_optic> springie im not comparing
[05:06] <azureal> rockzman, "*At this time, NTFS may only be mounted read-only by the kernel. This means information may be read, but no information may be written."
[05:06] <foo> err, I am getting this; The following packages have unmet dependencies: mplayer-nogui: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable .. broken packages. I am on ubuntu, any ideas?
[05:06] <phiber_optic> i just want to know any differneces
[05:06] <useruser> eyequeue: oh wait, i used cat
[05:06] <DShepherd> !tell phiber_optic about offtopic
[05:06] <phiber_optic> caus the ones i find on the net are not fulfiling my answer
[05:06] <eyequeue> useruser, you may need to boot to a rescue cd (does that have openssh-server though?)
[05:06] <coasterdude90> bruenig are you still there?
[05:06] <DShepherd> !tell sproingie about offtopic
[05:06] <ardchoille> phiber_optic: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[05:06] <coasterdude90> me?
[05:06] <useruser> eyequeue: well, it's chugging now
[05:06] <phiber_optic> DShepherd its not offtopic
[05:06] <h8tred> hello, does anyone know any good map software similiar to ms streets and trips?
[05:06] <eyequeue> useruser, okay
[05:07] <phiber_optic> archoille im an ubuntu user for the past 2 years
[05:07] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  hey there :)
[05:07] <eyequeue> phiber_optic, distro comparisons are
[05:07] <eyequeue> hi GoDawgs
[05:07] <DShepherd> phiber_optic: discuss distros in ubuntu-offtopic
[05:07] <bruenig> coasterdude90, I don't know anything about that, try the alternate cd is all I can get you
[05:07] <CPUFreak91> Is there any way to keep Kubuntu 6.06 from running slowly on a lappy with 256MB of ram?
[05:07] <GoDawgs> Prepare yourselves folks... dumb question coming on... how does one install a tar.bz file?
[05:07] <bruenig> give you*
[05:07] <Megaqwerty> How do I get the Synaptic Package Manager to display Alpha or Beta Packages?
[05:07] <coasterdude90> ok
[05:07] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, you probably want to look inside that archive, right?
[05:07] <ardchoille> GoDawgs: Is it an app? If so, what is the name of the app? Have you checked the repos to see if it's there?
[05:07] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  I think so...
[05:07] <sycron> What's a decent http download manager?
[05:07] <DShepherd> CPUFreak91: you may have better advice in the #kubuntu channel
[05:08] <bruenig> GoDawgs, do tar -zxjf /path/to/whatever.tar.gz
[05:08] <GoDawgs> ardchoille:  It's FileZilla3.tar.bz2
[05:08] <CPUFreak91> oops
[05:08] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, the gui archive manager, or bunzip the file, then untar it
[05:08] <CPUFreak91> wrong one
[05:08] <CPUFreak91> sorry
[05:08] <DShepherd> s/have/get/
[05:08] <bruenig> GoDawgs, then cd /path/to/whateverthenewdirectoryis, try to see if there is a readme, generally is
[05:08] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  what is "untarring"?  I thought tar was the unzip
[05:08] <coasterdude90> hey bruenig could be any hardware problems?
[05:08] <dfour> Didn't utorrent used to support linux?
[05:08] <WaR^DoG> hi  how now what is the kernel version that have ubuntu iso?
[05:08] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  ok
[05:08] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, no, tar is Tape Archiver
[05:08] <bruenig> coasterdude90, i got nothing
[05:08] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, no, tar is Tape ARchiver, sorry
[05:08] <coasterdude90> ok thanks
[05:09] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  oh... so the bz2 is the "zipping" part
[05:09] <foo> err, any ideas? unmet dependencies? Sounds like an RPM distribution. heh.
[05:09] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, bzip2, yes
[05:09] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  that' what you said
[05:09] <chatterman> guys im trying to activate my wireless on my laptop , it doesn't look like it detects it , any ideas ? its a BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g,Broadcom Corporation ?
[05:09] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  ok
[05:09] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, Tape ARchiver     t  ar
[05:09] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  got it
[05:09] <Megaqwerty> Come on, someone must know how to make the Synaptic Package Manager show Alpha and Beta Packages.
[05:09] <GoDawgs> ok... there's no readme
[05:09] <bruenig> GoDawgs, now that I think about it, it might actually be tar -jxvf not zxjf, in fact I am pretty sure it is -jxvf
[05:09] <lukus001> can anyone tell me how i can install glibc_2.4 please
[05:10] <bruenig> well you got it untarred so that is moot I guess
[05:10] <ardchoille> bruenig: Yep
[05:10] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  you do realize you just spoke to me... right? :)
[05:10] <bruenig> GoDawgs, what is in there?
[05:10] <bruenig> anything that says configure?
[05:10] <WaR^DoG> as it is the version that brings iso of ubuntu
[05:10] <WaR^DoG> ?
[05:10] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  a bunch of files starting with dir "bin" and "share"
[05:10] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, bruenig's method will do it all in one commandline (which is more my way than the gui archive manger that i mentioned, heh)
[05:10] <foo> Any developers in here?>
[05:10] <GoDawgs> eyequeue:  but the only problem is I don't know how to use it
[05:11] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, those are directories bin and share, and under them are the files themselves, i'm sure
[05:11] <bruenig> GoDawgs, what is the name, I will download it and look at it
[05:11] <ardchoille> GoDawgs: The first thing I would do is look for INSTALL, README files and read them
[05:11] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, the gui thing might allow browsing
[05:11] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  It's filezilla.tar.bz2
[05:11] <lukus001> How can i install glibc_2.4 on ubuntu drapper anyone?
[05:11] <Megaqwerty> How do I get the Synaptic Package Manager to display Alpha or Beta Packages?
[05:11] <useruser> eyequeue: this is like 2001 where hal's memory banks are pulled out
[05:11] <foo> err, I am getting this; The following packages have unmet dependencies: mplayer-nogui: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable .. broken packages. I am on ubuntu, any ideas? This sounds like an RPM issue. I left that scene ...
[05:11] <DShepherd> foo: if you want ubuntu developers you can find some at #ubuntu-devel. cant promise you'll get an answer from them. They are very busy
[05:11] <eyequeue> GoDawgs, doubleclick on the tarball file you have (tar.bz2)
[05:12] <foo> DShepherd: thanks
[05:12] <cry0gen> any of you here use ndiswrapper
[05:12] <eyequeue> useruser, daisy, daze eeeeeeeee

[05:12] <GoDawgs> ardchoille:  ok... i'll give it another shot
[05:12] <cry0gen> Just want to know if any of you have NetworkManager working with it?
[05:12] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, what chipset are you using?
[05:12] <bruenig> GoDawgs, i dont see any tar.bz files on the download page of source forge only .zip
[05:12] <DShepherd> foo: no prob
[05:12] <chatterman> amd
[05:13] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, sorry, what laptop do you have?
[05:13] <mrnull> Where can I find the mp3 plugin for totem?
[05:13] <chungaroo> can someone help me install my belkin F5D7011 wifi card in ubuntu 6.06? all of the guides i've tried haven't worked out for me

[05:13] <eyequeue> !mp3 > mrnull
[05:13] <GoDawgs> Yeah, I'm still seein' nothing....
[05:13] <Allen> hey browsing the internet is slow in ubuntu whats up?
[05:13] <Megaqwerty> Can anyone help me with the Synaptic Package Manager?

[05:14] <JoelMax> i need help with this problem  (X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.)
[05:14] <eyequeue> Allen, some people have a poorly configured router upstream from them with ipv6 problems
[05:14] <GoDawgs> Allen:  that's odd... i'm not having that problem at all... OTHER problems yes... that one no
[05:14] <CPUFreak91> I suppose it's futile to ask if one can swap the position of the GNOME pannels?
[05:14] <eyequeue> Allen, that's why it may be you but not him
[05:14] <bruenig> GoDawgs, cd into that new directory, then do cd bin, then ./filezilla
[05:14] <GoDawgs> brug
[05:14] <GoDawgs> oops
[05:14] <bruenig> all in the terminal
[05:14] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  ok... give me a sec
[05:15] <chatterman> 802.11g,Broadcom Corporation
[05:15] <ardchoille> CPUFreak91: No, it's easy to do. Right click the panel, choose properties and have a look in there
[05:15] <eyequeue> Allen, search for "ipv6" on the forums for a fix
[05:15] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: this guide should do it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196509
[05:15] <Allen> apt-get is fast ftp is fast but when I try to do anything in firefox it is painfulling slow
[05:15] <ardchoille> Allen: Firefox?
[05:15] <CPUFreak91> ardchoille: Ok. Thanks
[05:15] <kyeyekkarn> Anyone here use vmware?
[05:15] <eyequeue> Allen, that would be name lookup, yes
[05:15] <eyequeue> Allen, search for "ipv6" on the forums for a fix
[05:15] <bruenig> kyeyekkarn, did once
[05:16] <Allen> thanks eyequeue
[05:16] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty, when i do: "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" i get an error
[05:16] <nocti>  there is no way to burn cds on a laptop running a live rescue cd with only one drive?
[05:16] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  nope... I'm getting bash: cd: /home/Kelley/Desktop/FileZilla3.tar.bz2: No such file or directory
[05:16] <JoelMax> i need help with this problem  (X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.)
[05:16] <GoDawgs> I suppose I should extract it first?
[05:16] <bruenig> GoDawgs, the extracted file, yes
[05:16] <DShepherd> nocti: not that I know of
[05:16] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  ok
[05:16] <nocti> fckt
[05:16] <bruenig> do tar -jxvf filezilla2.tar.bz2
[05:16] <bruenig> capitlize the F and Z
[05:17] <bruenig> and make the 2 a 3
[05:17] <eyequeue> nocti, that's an unfortunate gotcha, the inability to remove the cd, i wish i knew a workaround
[05:17] <bruenig> you get the idea
[05:17] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  still no... bash: cd: /home/Kelley/Desktop/FileZilla3: No such file or directory
[05:17] <ardchoille> bruenig: Not sure if you know this or not, but we no longer need the "-" in "tar -zxvf"
[05:17] <GoDawgs> that's what it extracted to on my desktop
[05:17] <bruenig> wha!
[05:17] <bruenig> my carpal tunnel has been progressed
[05:17] <lukus001> can anyone tell me how to add edgy's repositories to synaptic? i cant find anything concerning the actuall link?
[05:17] <bruenig> for nothing
[05:17] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: I'll need more detail than "I get an error" Explain it to me over the pm
[05:17] <bruenig> GoDawgs, to cd /hom/Keylley/Desktop/F, then hit tab and then enter
[05:18] <GoDawgs> ok

[05:18] <chatterman> garrett-mobile u still with me ?
[05:18] <DShepherd> lukus001: #ubuntu+1 that is
[05:18] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty, check the pm.  i pasted the error in there
[05:18] <bruenig> my god I am typoing everywhere
[05:18] <lukus001> DShepherd brave? why
[05:18] <eyequeue> bruenig, gnu dropped the -, but non-gnu tar still uses it, fwiw ... also non-gnu uses different switches for bzip2, if it handles it at all
[05:18] <Sythen> How do I mount an NTFS partition? I don't know what partition it is, but I have [FAT]  [free space]  [NTFS]  [Linux]  [swap]

[05:19] <bruenig> GoDawgs, if the directory exists you can cd into it
[05:19] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  I'm lookin right at it
[05:19] <DShepherd> Soccrmastr: sudo /etc/init.d/xdm start?
[05:19] <bruenig> try cd ~/Desktop, then do ls and see what it is named

[05:20] <morphix> i used to have breezy installed on a usb hdd, but i had to edit a few things to make USB modules load at startup.. for dapper do i have to go through the editing the stuff for usb again?? or?
[05:20] <bruenig> !offtopic > deep__
[05:20] <sniff_> how to install wireless usb driver CNet model usb cnusb-611
[05:20] <GoDawgs> stupid mistake bruenig ... I had an uppercase in my Name when it should have been lower
[05:20] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  ok so I'm in now
[05:20] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, Yeah, sorry. I'm not having any luck bringing anything up. I'll keep looking and hook you up if I can find anything. Bare with me, I'm kind of spread out at the momeny.
[05:20] <garrett|mobile> moment*
[05:20] <eyequeue> morphix, if so, adding them to /etc/modules (and reboot) should suffice
[05:20] <bruenig> so cd bin, then ./filezilla
[05:21] <DJJUM> hi, what is a good java ide for Ubuntu?
[05:21] <MrParanoia> as a matter of fact, my applications menu shows the old mandriva applications and none of the ubuntu applications
[05:21] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  kelley@kelley-laptop:/bin$ ./filezilla
[05:21] <GoDawgs> bash: ./filezilla: No such file or directory
[05:21] <chatterman> thanks garrett|mobile, i appeciated
[05:21] <bruenig> GoDawgs, not cd /bin, cd bin
[05:21] <eyequeue> morphix, oh, booting from usb?  that's different then what i was about to say, that it was automatic in dapper.  unsure, sorry
[05:21] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty, can you not see my PMs?
[05:21] <morphix> eyequeue: i am just asking about does dapper properly support installing to a usb hdd without the need of editing stuff to get it working?
[05:21] <mrnull> i installed gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, how come totem still can't find the right plugin for mp3s?
[05:21] <bruenig> as in the bin that is in the directory you were in
[05:21] <GoDawgs> ok
[05:22] <Megaqwerty> No, I can't did you "/msg nickserv identify <password>"?
[05:22] <eyequeue> morphix, i'm now curious though, so if you find out, please tell me :)
[05:22] <DShepherd> DJJUM: eclipse seems to be good. you need to enable the universe repos
[05:22] <deep__> How can i check my xorg version?
[05:22] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  oh okay.... but... it didn't install necessairly... so do i have to go through that mess everytime I wanna run it?
[05:22] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: if you didn't that should make it work
[05:22] <Megaqwerty> you will have to resend your error though.
[05:22] <eyequeue> deep__, dpkg -l xserver-xorg
[05:23] <deep__> Thanx. :)
[05:23] <DJJUM> thanks i have exlipse i might check it out
[05:23] <bruenig> GoDawgs, what I would do is mv the directory to /opt, then write a bash script that would start it for me and then create a launcher in the menu, all of that is probably a bit complicated
[05:23] <ToHellWithGA> could somebody help me find my MX and then help me edit it?
[05:23] <DShepherd> DJJUM: no prob
[05:23] <Allen> alrighty I think I found it eyequeue
[05:23] <Allen> I am gonna try it
[05:24] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  oh gosh... what a head ache... man, I just want a good FTP client (gui)
[05:24] <Woosta> Did someone break something with USB? Since an update yesterday a lot of my single clicks are registering as double clicks .. which is REALLY REALLY pissing me off
[05:24] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: are you there?
[05:24] <bruenig> GoDawgs, I could guide you if you want, a lot more command line stuff though
[05:24] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty, i don't think you can see my PMs for some reason
[05:25] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: I know, you need to type this:
[05:25] <bruenig> perhaps I should message you or what not if you want to do it as there is no reason to fill this channel up
[05:25] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  you're sweet... this is only alpha software... so i don't know how well it's gonna work... maybe I should wait until it's final
[05:25] <Megaqwerty> "/msg nickserv identify <password>
[05:25] <DarkAudit> other than size, what's the difference between Azureus2.jar as packaged and the one straight from Azureus themselves?

[05:25] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty:  FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid argument
[05:25] <s|k> hi
[05:25] <Megaqwerty> ok
[05:25] <bruenig> GoDawgs, when it is final, all you would have to do is replace it and all of the other stuff would stay the same
[05:25] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: what command did you type?
[05:25] <s|k> can anyone tell me how I can figure out which version of amd 64 3000 I have? I can't tell from the box or the included info
[05:25] <GoDawgs> bruenig:  ok, that's good to know
[05:26] <bruenig> but whatever I am going to sleep then
[05:26] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:26] <cry0gen> ndiswrapper is cool
[05:26] <cry0gen> too bad only wpa_supplicant is working with it right now :\
[05:26] <DShepherd> s|k: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:26] <DarkAudit> when I replaced the packaged jar, I got the frog icon in the system tray again
[05:26] <cry0gen> i want network-manager to work with it unfortunately it wont
[05:26] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: have you already done these steps successfully?
[05:26] <Megaqwerty> sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils sudo ndiswrapper -i ~/Desktop/bcmwl5.inf sudo ndiswrapper -m sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:26] <s|k> DShepherd: I haven't gotten that far yet :)
[05:27] <s|k> still building it
[05:27] <DShepherd> s|k: I am not sure if that will work though
[05:27] <Megaqwerty> (except the modprobe one)
[05:27] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" returns the error i pasted above. up until then it's fine
[05:27] <Megaqwerty> hm...
[05:27] <DShepherd> s|k: ask the manufacturers then? :-)
[05:27] <s|k> DShepherd: shouldn't it be on the box or in the thing somewhere?
[05:27] <s|k> :(
[05:27] <sniff_> Megaqwerty: how about if *.inf have 3 files
[05:27] <DShepherd> s|k:  i guess
[05:28] <cafuego> chatterman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[05:28] <chatterman> thanks
[05:28] <Megaqwerty> sniff_: your guess is as good as mine at this point.
[05:28] <compilerwriter> Help I am having trouble with skype!!!
[05:28] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: give me a minute, I might have a solution for you, let me just check it out...
[05:29] <cry0gen> gnome network manager x-x
[05:29] <cry0gen> it works but it doesnt
[05:29] <cry0gen> this is frustrating
[05:29] <argument> how can i get firefox to play windows media player format videos?
[05:29] <cry0gen> the password prompt pops up
[05:29] <argument> i followed the instructions on the restricted formats guide and installed totem
[05:29] <cry0gen> and the activity light blinks like it's communicating
[05:29] <cry0gen> but it' isnt
[05:29] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: I figured out a workaround!
[05:30] <argument> and the totem-plugin and all that good stuff, but for example upon going to a site in windows, the video starts playing automatically but not in firefox
[05:30] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: =] ] ] ] 
[05:30] <sniff_> Megaqwerty: so it must be type 3 time -> ndiswrapper -i ~/Desktop/file.inf
[05:30] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: use the synaptic package manager, to install ndiswrapper-utils that should finish that step of the setup.
[05:30] <allen> hey
[05:30] <cry0gen> lol
[05:30] <cry0gen> oddly you guys are talking about ndiswrapper
[05:30] <godtvisken> How do I check cron errormessages?
[05:31] <allen> I got the internet issues resolved
[05:31] <typhoid> Hello, everyone.  I have a silly question..  Where are most of the files installed by default on ubuntu (dapper) -- things like httpd
[05:31] <cry0gen> it all works for me
[05:31] <compilerwriter> I need to configure my sound device or something.
[05:31] <cry0gen> cept, i am REQUIRED to use wpa_supplicant
[05:31] <cry0gen> quite anoying.
[05:31] <eyequeue> allen, great, what was the fix?
[05:31] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: tell me if that does it. If not, try sniff_'s idea.
[05:32] <mrnull> sometimes when i try to start applications, they never appear (no matter how many times I click them.)
[05:32] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: it asks if i want to re-install it.
[05:32] <allen> eyequeue, open firefox and go to about:congif then set the network.dns.ipv6 seting to true
[05:32] <CrashTest> Hi all, man, this is one busy channel :)  Anybody know how to view "Comments" in a Word document in OpenOffice.org Writer?
[05:32] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: say "Yes"
[05:32] <eyequeue> mrnull, start them from a terminal to see the error messages
[05:32] <eyequeue> allen, ahh
[05:32] <mrnull> eyequeue: cool.  how do i do that?
[05:32] <Megaqwerty> then continue the setup process
[05:33] <eyequeue> mrnull, open a terminal, type the command and press enter
[05:33] <allen> eyequeue, it was pretty simple I was afraid of some kind of terminal work again
[05:33] <eyequeue> mrnull, open a terminal, type "firefox" as example
[05:33] <godtvisken> How can I check crontab error messages?
[05:34] <eyequeue> godtvisken, unless redirected to /dev/null, root should get them mailed (ie, your user gets them)
[05:34] <k0shi> Are Prism based WiFi cards hard to install on xubuntu?
[05:34] <compilerwriter> Any skype experts out there?
[05:34] <eyequeue> allen, nah, not everything is painful ;)
[05:34] <typhoid> where might i find the httpd executable?  It is not available in my current path ><
[05:34] <godtvisken> eyequeue: mailed? ehm, i have a cronjob to play a music song, but it only starts to play then stops
[05:34] <eyequeue> typhoid, which server package?
[05:35] <typhoid> it's ubuntu dapper, thank you eyequeue
[05:35] <argument> typhoid, what are you looking for specifically
[05:35] <heel3k> how involved is it to get cisco's vpn client installed?
[05:35] <argument> typhoid, you can find out where files in a package are placed by using synaptic
[05:35] <typhoid> argument, I am working on getting mod_mono working with apache2
[05:35] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: i'm not getting any luck
[05:35] <eyequeue> typhoid, apache2?  look in /usr/sbin/apache2
[05:36] <argument> typhoid, /etc/apache2 here
[05:36] <typhoid> argument: thank you kindly
[05:36] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: what happened exactly?
[05:36] <typhoid> and thank you too eyequeue!
[05:36] <eyequeue> typhoid, being a daemon, it's not run by users, hence not in /usr/bin
[05:36] <typhoid> i'm trying to restart httpd but the command is not in my path
[05:36] <CrashTest> compilerwriter: I know skype a bit.
[05:36] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: well i installed it with synaptic and tried using the card but it's not recognized
[05:36] <due> /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[05:37] <due> typhoid: run that as root, voila
[05:37] <argument> typhoid, /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[05:37] <compilerwriter> crashtest perhaps you can help me fix things.
[05:37] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: try finishing the steps in the guide I gave you
[05:37] <eyequeue> typhoid, what due said, with sudo in front, if you want to restart :)
[05:37] <argument> typhoid, http://trac.eta-beta-pi.net/wiki/HowTo/Distros-default-layout

[05:37] <allen> what is the deal with ubuntus home folder
[05:37] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: i did.
[05:37] <lumgwada> hi, can anyone tell me if it's possible in Ubuntu's Evolution to automatically turn an email into a 'task' based on it's subject  line... (possibly by piping it to a script...)
[05:37] <allen> do I have to add my own foders and everything?
[05:38] <eyequeue> allen, "ubuntu" the livecd user?
[05:38] <eyequeue> allen, /home/allen (or whatever) should have been created when the user allen was created
[05:38] <allen> it did
[05:38] <chungaroo> Megaqwerty: when i do: ndiswrapper -l to list the drivers, it says "bcmwl5 invalid driver!"
[05:38] <eyequeue> allen, /home/allen is free for you to do whatever under
[05:39] <allen> eyequeue, but it didn't make a music, movies, and all of the other folders
[05:39] <rredd4> is there any way to connect to Paltalk with Gaim?
[05:39] <Megaqwerty> chungaroo: try sniff_'s idea. I have to leave, so ask him for help. Sorry. If you are still having trouble, I should be on again tomorrow,  ask me then. Goodnight!
[05:39] <cdubya> any mysql folks here?
[05:39] <eyequeue> allen, um, how could it know what you want, and what you want to call them? :)
[05:39] <argument> cdubya, yes in #mysql
[05:40] <cdubya> argument, no there's not. At least not any that want to help.
[05:40] <eyequeue> allen, mkdir ~/music ~/movies or use the gui
[05:40] <DShepherd> rredd4: i dont know what Paltalk is.. have you asked in #gaim? that might be helpful
[05:40] <allen> eyequeue, I am fresh off of windows and a month or two before a mac, I am use to changing it
[05:40] <allen> eyequeue I did it already
[05:40] <cdubya> anyone here do much with mysql?
[05:41] <eyequeue> allen, just giving you the command syntax if you needed it
[05:41] <allen> eyequeue, thanks you guys are really helpfull, the room is kind of cluttered but you guys are great
[05:41] <Clinton__> earlier someone mentioned I should use automatix for installing w32codecs, but I am either getting the wrong version of it or something isn't working right, it isn't in the list of programs offered for installation.  (earlier someone mentioned I should use automatix )   Could someone give me a link to the proper .deb please?
[05:41] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, you still there?
[05:41] <rredd4> DShepherd  Paltalk is like Yahoo,  I am in #gaim... thanks

[05:42] <cry0gen> network manager just try's to connect to my AP
[05:42] <allen> Got any recomendations on an mp3 player anyone?
[05:42] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, http://bnmr.triumf.ca/~zaher/Presario_2197CA/ might help you out.
[05:42] <eyequeue> it's why we send people to other channels for offtopic etc things
[05:42] <garrett|mobile> Walks you through on how to setup ndiswrapper
[05:42] <chatterman> thanks alot man
[05:42] <cry0gen> but, it just sits blinking the activity light
[05:43] <cdubya> allen, lots of folks seem to like amarok, I use quod libet
[05:43] <InnerCalm> I have a few questions about ubuntu, since just running the livecd... I am interested in installing a few things but wish to understand the change from windows to linux... can anyone please help me out with this
[05:43] <cdubya> allen, or you can use beep or xmms
[05:43] <garrett|mobile> chatterman, let me know if it works. I'll try to help you all I can but I'm not very experienced. I just can look for things. :P
[05:43] <eyequeue> allen, i don't know if you have this yet
[05:43] <eyequeue> !mp3 > allen
[05:44] <eyequeue> allen, mp3 support isn't default in most ubuntu apps
[05:44] <bimberi> InnerCalm: feel free to just ask away - one question at a time though :)
[05:44] <jbentleyp> how does one configure the time-to-live (autodisconnect ?) value for the telnetd daemon ?
[05:44] <chatterman> thanks for your patience and i will let u know if it works thanks again, i need to reboot for now ok later:)
[05:44] <allen> i was using armarok when I was using mepis but it was a little cluttered I want to use something else and try out
[05:44] <allen> thanks for the link eyequeue
[05:45] <cdubya> allen, I use quod libet.....I like it. Beep's pretty nice too
[05:45] <eyequeue> no prob
[05:45] <InnerCalm> K, im new to linux / ubuntu ... i wish to learn all i can about it before making the permanent change to it... one question i have is if there is a way to partition the hd to allow two OS's ... can i have both ubuntu and windows running on this computer, without any conflicting problems?
[05:45] <deep__> Is there an opposite of "grep"? Like "ls | not *.zip" ?
[05:45] <allen> cdubya thanks
[05:45] <allen> I will check it out
[05:45] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, check this url out later too :) http://rute.2038bug.com
[05:45] <cdubya> allen, np
[05:45] <cdubya> InnerCalm, yep
[05:45] <allen> but first I have to read this thingy on supported formats
[05:45] <babo> this is weird, I have 0775 set on my file. It's gid is 'user' ... yet when I try to edit it with emacs as 'user' ... it tells me that it's read-only ?????
[05:46] <lumgwada> does anyone know if it's possible to create Evolution tasks via command line (ie shell script...)
[05:46] <eyequeue> deep__, man grep :)  you want the -v switch
[05:46] <jbentleyp> how does one configure the time-to-live (autodisconnect ?) value for the telnetd daemon ?
[05:46] <deep__> eyequeue: Thanx. :)
[05:46] <bimberi> ubotu tell InnerCalm about dualboot
[05:46] <InnerCalm> bimberi, thank you.
[05:46] <Necrosan> On ubuntu-sparc, how do i change the sound to go out of the speakers instead of the internal speaker?
[05:47] <sethk> lumgwada, it is possible.  I would strace the processes and add a task in the gui, then extract the commands from the traces.
[05:47] <bimberi> InnerCalm: np :)
[05:47] <eyequeue> deep__, your example, ls | grep -v ".zip"
[05:47] <InnerCalm> Another question, The compatability with most programs i am used to... they wont work with linux... is there a way around this, or do i simply have to start using other programs?
[05:47] <allen> do you guys use mp3's?
[05:47] <godtvisken> I just set up a cronjob to play a song, but it only plays for 1 second then quits. How can I find out what is wrong?
[05:47] <cdubya> InnerCalm, which programs?
[05:47] <lumgwada> sethk: I guess so thanks for the ides, so theres no structured api then...
[05:48] <garrett|mobile> allen, yes...
[05:48] <babo> anybody got any ideas ?
[05:48] <Necrosan> On ubuntu-sparc, how do i change the sound to go out of the speakers instead of the internal speaker?
[05:48] <cdubya> allen, yep
[05:48] <InnerCalm> Lets just say for instance, some music recording software like Acid Pro
[05:48] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, typically there are free/better apps for linux ... search for "windows" on the wiki and you'll find some page listing "equivalents"
[05:48] <bimberi> InnerCalm: it's better to try the alternatives first.  If there are programs you _must_ have you can try things like wine is capable of running some windows apps under linux
[05:48] <InnerCalm> Ok.
[05:48] <bimberi> *which is capable
[05:48] <sethk> lumgwada, I'm not an expert at evolution.  I don't know of one, but I'd be willing to bet that if you can read the source, you'll find one.
[05:49] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, though i don't know the ms names, it lists them and then the linux (better) app names
[05:49] <Necrosan> On ubuntu-sparc, how do i change the sound to go out of the speakers instead of the internal speaker?
[05:49] <allen> any ogg fans in the room?
[05:49] <lumgwada> sethk: many thanks
[05:49] <mrPolite> allen: yup
[05:49] <babo> nobody ?
[05:49] <dougsko> allen: yeah dude, oggs are /colsay sweet
[05:49] <dougsko> oops
[05:49] <InnerCalm> I have a lot of music on my harddrive, and when i try to access them it says that it cannot "mount" the drive or something of that nature. Is there a way to open the files on my harddrive from linux, or is it a file compatability problem?
[05:50] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, which fs?
[05:50] <cdubya> ubotu tell InnerCalm about ntfs
[05:50] <InnerCalm> Lets see...
[05:50] <allen> dougsko mrPolite do you run into compatability issues with them? and what about quality and converting MP3's to them
[05:50] <sethk> InnerCalm, reading is no problem and no compatibility issues.  writing is different
[05:50] <dougsko> allen: you do not want to convert mp3 to ogg, if you care about sound quality
[05:51] <dougsko> allen: lossy codec -> lossy codec = very lossy
[05:51] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, it seems your fs is ntfs, from what others say
[05:51] <mrPolite> allen:  no issues here, if i need to i can convert them to mp3 for a portable player. XBMC plays them just fine off he network in differnt rooms in my home
[05:51] <garrett|mobile> allen, I'm doing fine with my collection of around 6,000 MP3's.
[05:51] <dougsko> allen: no compatibility issues though
[05:51] <InnerCalm> I believe ntfs ... it says it is not mountable and non-removable.
[05:51] <garrett|mobile> No problems here.
[05:51] <mrPolite> allen: i don't convert mp3-ogg, not worth the fidelity loss
[05:51] <InnerCalm> How can i view the music on that drive?
[05:51] <dougsko> allen: i do have to change them into mp3 to play on my mp3 player though
[05:52] <eyequeue> InnerCalm, you can mount ntfs read-only, see the link ubotu sent you
[05:52] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, are you getting a pmount error?
[05:52] <mrPolite> !tell InnerCalm about ntfs
[05:52] <dougsko> allen: but if you're ripping a cd, theyre perfect, half the size of mp3, and better quality
[05:52] <InnerCalm> eyequeue, thank you
[05:52] <cafuego> dougsko: Don't convert from ogg to mp3. If you need mp3, rip to mp3.
[05:52] <cdubya> InnerCalm, might have a looksee here too....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[05:52] <InnerCalm> Yes unable to execute pmount
[05:52] <sethk> dougsko, you can't convert from one format to another and gain quality
[05:53] <allen> so which do you guys prefer?
[05:53] <sethk> InnerCalm, use sudo or do as root
[05:53] <InnerCalm> sethk, too new to understand what you mean by that =D
[05:53] <dougsko> who said that? dougsko> allen: lossy codec -> lossy codec = very lossy
[05:53] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, I just had a guy that was having the same error.
[05:53] <InnerCalm> sethk, first day
[05:53] <cafuego> allen: I prefer MP3, as all my devices can play them. Ogg is badly supported.
[05:53] <Linkiboy> Hi everyone
[05:53] <sethk> InnerCalm, are you doing mount at the command line?   if so, change it to sudo mount
[05:53] <InnerCalm> sethk, no im using a gui to try to access my files
[05:53] <garrett|mobile> sethk, my other guy was just trying to launch the drive in Nautilus from the Places menu.
[05:54] <sethk> InnerCalm, oh, that's harder.  someone will know, but I never use the gui for things like that.
[05:54] <garrett|mobile> sethk, just like InnerCalm is.
[05:54] <Necrosan> On ubuntu-sparc, how do i change the sound to go out of the speakers instead of the internal speaker?
[05:54] <Necrosan> On ubuntu-sparc, how do i change the sound to go out of the speakers instead of the internal speaker?
[05:54] <Linkiboy> I have a question... I was not able to play MP3's, so I installed Lame thru Synaptic Package Manager, and I still can't play MP3's... what do i do?
[05:54] <sethk> garrett|mobile, ok, then is there a way to run the gui with root privileges?
[05:54] <godtvisken> I set a cron job to run a script that plays my music, but it only plays for a second or so then quits. What could be wrong?
[05:54] <allen> I see...I am new to all of this free software stuff, I like the idea but so many of the formats aren't supported well...I am trying to decide if the politics are worth it.
[05:54] <InnerCalm> Thank you.
[05:54] <dougsko> sethk: gksudo
[05:54] <pike_> Linkiboy: wiki.ubuntu.com search for restricted
[05:54] <cafuego> allen: I find it pays to sue what works best.
[05:55] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, might try adding your drive to the pmount.allow list. I'm not much of a Linux geek, just getting my feet wet, so if anyone else in the room knows of a better option, speak now.
[05:55] <allen> LOL
[05:55] <garrett|mobile> Heh.
[05:55] <cafuego> allen: If that is an open program/format, all the better.
[05:55] <sethk> dougsko, right, or kusudo (or ksudo, whatever for kde).  thanks, dougsko
[05:55] <InnerCalm> Another question, I notice that a lot of linux seems to be terminal and codes (sudo , grep) and im not sure what ANY of it means... do i need to learn this?
[05:55] <dougsko> allen: yeah it depends what youre' doing
[05:55] <Linkiboy> ok ill do that
[05:55] <mrnull> how can i set my list of repositories to default?
[05:55] <InnerCalm> thank you garret
[05:55] <mrPolite> allen:  if you're willing to _not_ buy an iPod, you'll find .ogg support in many portable players
[05:55] <dougsko> allen: yeah, F ipods
[05:55] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, "sudo gedit /etc/pmount.allow" will get you there, then just add the device you're attempting to mount.
[05:55] <allen> I had an ipod...it is part of the reason why I switched
[05:55] <sethk> mrnull, with an editor, but I think you didn't ask the right question.
[05:55] <typhoid> can any of you tell me where to find the firefox executable in dapper?     my problem is:  I go to an .aspx page on my local computer, and it does not know what to open it with
[05:56] <sethk> mrnull, what you want to know is, what is the default repository set
[05:56] <compotatoj> I think iPod Linux can play oggs
[05:56] <TylerE> Is there some trick to getting good 2d performance out of the nvidia driver? 3d works great, but 2d is, well laggy, for instance rapidly dragging a window back and forth I get major frameskipping and general unsmoothness
[05:56] <eyequeue> typhoid, /usr/bin/firefox
[05:56] <mrnull> sethk: yes
[05:56] <pike_> typhoid: which firefox  it the command you wanted
[05:56] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192258&page=2 is where I got that solution if you need some further reading.
[05:56] <dougsko> allen: all in all, ogg is a better codec, you just dont want to go, mp3 <--> ogg
[05:56] <sethk> TylerE, I sometimes see that, but it is caused by an ill behaved program.  If I shut everything down the problem goes away.
[05:56] <typhoid> eyequeue  - thank you =)  and pike_, i'm pretty sure that i just need the firefox commandline word in that directory,  but thank you
[05:57] <eyequeue> typhoid, right click on that file, then associate firefox with it
[05:57] <sethk> TylerE, don't know if your problem is the same one, though.  Does it always happen?
[05:57] <eyequeue> typhoid, then all of that type will work
[05:57] <TylerE> sethk: fresh install with nothing running
[05:57] <yurtle> is there an ebook reader for ubuntu?
[05:57] <bimberi> InnerCalm: you usually need the command line to smooth out issues.  One you're running smoothly though you will find that you hardly ever need it
[05:57] <TylerE> sethk: but, yes, it's very consistent
[05:57] <allen> dougsko...I wasn't going to 20gigs is a hell of a deturent
[05:57] <InnerCalm> bimberi, thank you
[05:57] <sethk> TylerE, must be different from my problem.  running gnome?  or kde?
[05:57] <mrPolite> anyone know how to reset or clear, or delete a keyring?
[05:57] <TylerE> sethk: basically my 2d perf is blowing chunks...things like scrolling in konq are also non-optimial
[05:57] <InnerCalm> You all have been a great help... ill probably be back on here tomorrow with a ton more problems ;)
[05:57] <dougsko> allen: haha yeah
[05:57] <InnerCalm> thank you !
[05:57] <TylerE> kde
[05:58] <bimberi> InnerCalm: np, have fun :)
[05:58] <sycron> Question: I'm trying to add mp3 support, and following the RestrictedFormats information on help.ubuntu.com (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats), and it says to install the gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly package, but I don't see that particular package in the manager...
[05:58] <sethk> TylerE, what box are you running with?  I want to know if mine works because it is a faster box, or your's has another nvidia specific problem.
[05:58] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, get it working?
[05:58] <eyequeue> !repos > sycron
[05:59] <InnerCalm> No not yet, im still trying to figure out what im doing
[05:59] <TylerE> sethk: AMD 3200+, Geforce 6600GT 128MB, 1GB of DDR...it ain't the box ;)
[05:59] <allen> any programmers in the house?
[05:59] <dougsko> allen: personally, when i dl music, its mostly in mp3, and i just leave it that way, but if im ripping a cd or want to make a .flac smaller, i go ogg
[05:59] <InnerCalm> of course i am only using livecd so that might be a problem
[05:59] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, ahh, gotcha. Well enjoy. See you around!
[05:59] <InnerCalm> havent even "installed" it yet
[05:59] <InnerCalm> thanks!
[05:59] <sethk> TylerE, no, I'd say not.  if you are running 64 bit, though, that could be related.
[05:59] <garrett|mobile> InnerCalm, yeah, possibly.
[05:59] <TylerE> sethk: yea, am running 64bit
[05:59] <TylerE> hrrm
[05:59] <belatucadros> so can anyone in here give me a straight forward answer on how the Geforce 6100 and the FX 5200 compare?
[06:00] <sethk> TylerE, I know it's counterintuitive, but it is possible that the driver is optimized for 32 bit in a manner that kills it for 64 bit.  wouldn't be the first time something like that happened.
[06:00] <allen> I am going to have to finish reading the sites that eyequeue sent me, right now I have way to much information to try and convert
[06:00] <sethk> TylerE, again, though, I'm just speculating
[06:00] <sethk> allen, way too much, not way to much   :)
[06:00] <Clinton__> ah... thank you for the Automatix tip ya'll :)
[06:00] <sycron> eyequeue: So do I have to edit the Sources file then?
[06:00] <gldtn> hello all
[06:01] <dougsko> ok, im out for today
[06:01] <dougsko> smell ya later
[06:01] <Linkiboy> Ok, the wiki says to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, but that doesnt show up in the package manger
[06:01] <sycron> lol
[06:01] <eyequeue> sycron, right
[06:01] <garrett|mobile> Hello gldtn.
[06:01] <sycron> Alright, thanks
[06:01] <eyequeue> sycron, then sudo apt-get update
[06:01] <TylerE> sethk: it's possible...but 3d is very smooth so I'm guess it's a 2d issue of some sort
[06:01] <gldtn> does anyone knows if I need a driver to get my Marvel Yukon 88E8053 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet controller to work under ubuntu 5.04?
[06:02] <sethk> TylerE, yes, I agree, but that doesn't mean that the 2d issue might not be related.
[06:02] <sethk> gldtn, I've used that quite a bit.  what problem are you having?
[06:02] <sethk> gldtn, I use the driver from marvell's web site; get the latest one.  You need kernel source to build it.
[06:02] <gldtn> sethk; it's  just not detecting my network card
[06:03] <sethk> gldtn, there is a built in driver, let me look up the name
[06:03] <TylerE> sethk: hrrm, just grabbed Xgl...lemme run that and see if things improve
[06:03] <sethk> gldtn, sk98
[06:03] <allen> sethk I am here to learn about linux and to escape my grammer lessons
[06:03] <allen> lol
[06:03] <cry0gen> damn this is anoying
[06:03] <cry0gen> wpa_sup works half the time
[06:03] <sycron> eyequeue: How can I edit sources.list in the terminal? I can navigate to the directory, just not sure how to actually edit.
[06:03] <cry0gen> and networkmanager doesnt work :\
[06:03] <sethk> gldtn, that's not the full name, it is sk98xxxx.   I'll find it in a moment if you hold on.
[06:03] <pike_> sycron: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:04] <garrett|mobile> sycron, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:04] <sycron> what's the difference between nano and gedit?
[06:04] <garrett|mobile> sycron, or nano. Pick your editor of choice. vi.
[06:04] <eyequeue> sycron, more comfortable with gui?  sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:04] <gldtn> sethk; k.. what file should I added to put that in? I haven't used linux in a while.. try to get back to it..
[06:04] <eyequeue> sycron, nano is a commandline editor
[06:04] <garrett|mobile> sycron, nano and vi will bring up an editor in the terminal window. gedit is an external GUI editor...which I prefer. :P
[06:05] <Sythen> hey garrett|mobile
[06:05] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, what's up?
[06:05] <TylerE> well, under xgl 2d *is* quite a bit better
[06:05] <eyequeue> root???? mptmon
[06:05] <sycron> Alright, nano it is then. I'd rather learn without the GUI
[06:05] <TylerE> but I can't run opengl apps
[06:05] <Necrosan> How do I make /dev/audioctl be there?
[06:05] <sethk> sycron, you can use vi in terminal mode
[06:05] <eyequeue> mptmon, don't irc as root, don't anything as root
[06:05] <Sythen> Does NTFS support dump?
[06:05] <sethk> sycron, for that matter, you can use nano in terminal mode
[06:05] <Clinton__> How well does XGL/Compiz work without 3d hardware acceleration?
[06:06] <snoops> it doesn't Clinton__
[06:06] <garrett|mobile> Clinton__, crappy, I would assume. But you know what happens when you assume... har har har. :(
[06:06] <garrett|mobile> snoops, thanks. :P
[06:07] <Clinton__> I'm blessed with the one chip Linux doesn't have 3d support for.. SiS 650 :(
[06:07] <Sythen> I am trying to figure out /etc/fstab but the rude linux geeks in #linux on undernet told me to RTFM, and I cant figure the dump and pass parts
[06:07] <selfharm> anyone use CUPS? I am having no luck sharing printers
[06:07] <selfharm> with dapper
[06:07] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, was that question directed towards me?
[06:07] <snoops> Clinton__ heh, doubtful that xgl would support it either then.. and really, with an integrated card like that, xgl would be awfully slow
[06:07] <Sythen> garrett|mobile,  nope, just saying hi
[06:07] <eyequeue> Sythen, 0 and 2 unless you need them :)
[06:07] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, are you Clint?
[06:07] <garrett|mobile> Haha.
[06:08] <sethk> Sythen, I don't know about ntfs dump, but I'd be skeptical about it even if it is available.
[06:08] <foo> Hm, what package contains alsaconf? Can't seem to find it with apt-file update && apt-file search alsaconf. hmm
[06:08] <Clinton__> snoops: damn.. :(  I've seen it in action - looks awesome!  I want I want I want.. but I can't have...
[06:08] <WayCool> Hi guys
[06:08] <snoops> Clinton__ ya know, for $40-50 you could get a 6200 nvidia card, which would run it fine :)
[06:08] <garrett|mobile> Clinton__, me too. I'd love to have it. But I'm doing good to get dual-monitors working with the fglrx driver. Lmao.
[06:08] <allen> why isn't VLC in the synaptic?
[06:09] <sahasrara> is it possible to clone the LiveCDs?
[06:09] <eyequeue> !repos > allen
[06:09] <Clinton__> snoops: yup, if this wasn't a laptop
[06:09] <snoops> allen it is, it's either in multiverse or universe
[06:09] <garrett|mobile> allen, you can get VLC via Automatix, I believe.
[06:09] <snoops> ah right Clinton__ :/
[06:09] <eyequeue> !info vlc
[06:09] <ubotu> vlc: multimedia player for all audio and video formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.4.debian-1ubuntu6 (dapper), package size 7620 kB, installed size 18808 kB
[06:09] <foo> Hm, what package contains alsaconf? Can't seem to find it with apt-file update && apt-file search alsaconf. hmm
[06:09] <sahasrara> instead of having to get the .iso and keep making LiveCDs off of that?
[06:09] <allen> I have to add another repository?
[06:10] <sycron> I can't believe how awesome this is
[06:10] <Psykus> hey, can anyone help me get wireless working? i've followed the ndiswrapper tutorial, and I think my problem is "Another driver loads and binds to the device", since ubuntu already shows a wireless device before I touch ndiswrapper, but it won't work. the link on the wiki to fix that doesn't go anywhere, gives an error page
[06:10] <snoops> allen it's just disabled.. if you want to go through synaptic package manager it's very easy.. you can also use a text editor to edit out comments for those repositories if you want
[06:10] <Psykus> referring to this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper#head-c1d02586fd139d6e32f018b19392d255aa190a26
[06:10] <allen> snoops how do I do that?
[06:10] <gldtn> Would  modprobe <drivername> work to add a built in driver? or am I way off?
[06:11] <briguyd> Psykus, what chipset?
[06:11] <sycron> can you use the package manager in a terminal?
[06:11] <snoops> allen in synaptic if you go settings>repositories.. the dialog opened will let you scroll down and tick the repositories you want..make sure multiverse and universe is enabled
[06:11] <Sythen> /dev/sda3    /media/windows   ntfs    noauto       0        0
[06:11] <Sythen> Does that seem right?
[06:11] <Psykus> motorola something or another, I can't remember exactly. I know I got it working under ubuntu/linux at one point
[06:11] <DShepherd> sycron: yeah apt-get or aptitude. both work fine
[06:11] <allen> thanks
[06:11] <Psykus> i'd have to check
[06:11] <WayCool> I am new to Linux and am trying to install DSL on my old Pentium I system.I am new to Linux and am trying to install DSL on my old Pentium I system.  I've cleared the hard drive and want to ask if I need to
[06:11] <WayCool> create Dos partitions before starting the instalation from a CD or will the Linux installer create partitions and format the drive by
[06:11] <WayCool> itself?
[06:12] <sycron> DShepherd: Is there any way to list the available packages then?
[06:12] <evan_w00> whats a good RAR archiver for ubuntu?
[06:12] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, ubuntuguide.org has the settings you need for fstab.
[06:12] <Elephant> WayCool:  Most likely, the Linux installer will handle it
[06:12] <DShepherd> sycron: aptitude search nameofpackage  works fine
[06:13] <sahasrara> does anyone know if it's possible to clone the LiveCDs rather than burn them from the .iso? and is the .iso just closest to the original data?
[06:13] <verbose>  /j ##python
[06:13] <verbose> err, oops
[06:13] <Sythen> garrett|mobile, I dont think it does
[06:13] <Psykus> briguyd, "Chipset: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306"
[06:14] <DShepherd> sahasrara:  yeah,, you can..
[06:14] <briguyd> Psykus, you and me both, man
[06:14] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, from the guide: "/dev/hda1 /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222"
[06:14] <evan_w00> can "Ark" archive .RAR files?
[06:14] <DShepherd> sahasrara: just right the the cd icon on the desktop and click 'Copy Cd'
[06:14] <Sythen> garrett|mobile, that isnt for fstab
[06:14] <sethk> gldtn, the driver is sk98lin
[06:14] <Sythen> that is mount
[06:14] <briguyd> Psykus, theres a lot of issues with linux and broadcom chipsets, or so i hear
[06:14] <sethk> gldtn, don't use the newer marvell 8xxx driver, it fails with 8053
[06:14] <briguyd> lemme look up something
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  not sure if it can make them. :P never tried.
[06:14] <garrett|mobile> Sythen, doink. Sorry. :P
[06:14] <garrett|mobile> Hold.
[06:15] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis oh ok, then whats a good .RAR archiver for ubuntu?
[06:15] <poningru> Psykus: whats wrong?
[06:15] <poningru> Psykus: you need the firmware for that
[06:15] <eyequeue> !rar
[06:15] <Psykus> briguyd, I know I had it working with ndiswrapper at one point, only for this version of ubuntu, a non-working wireless device shows up before I do anything with ndiswrapper, and I think that's the problem
[06:15] <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. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[06:15] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis i couldnt get linuxRAR to install >.<

[06:15] <DShepherd> sahasrara: i meant right-click
[06:15] <poningru> grr
[06:15] <sahasrara> DShepherd: i thought it was more complicated than that
[06:15] <poningru> Psykus: hold on dude
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  ive used cedega and winrar :P
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  but i normally use winrar to make zips :)
[06:15] <DShepherd> sahasrara: simple is as simple does :-)
[06:15] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis ohh ok. ill trade cedega.
[06:15] <eyequeue> evan_w00, using apt-get?
[06:15] <briguyd> Psykus, exact same here

[06:15] <sahasrara> DShepherd: i thought that's why we have to use the .iso to make bootable cd's
[06:15] <sahasrara> oh
[06:15] <WayCool> elephant: I've tried and am not getting anywhere...  I get the error message: Disk Boot Failure, Insert System Disk & press Enter.
[06:16] <Amaranth> Did any of you just get a PM from a spammer?
[06:16] <gldtn> sethk: I was just about to ask if that was the one.. found that name while researching the ubuntu forums.. now how can I add that in? would <modprobe sk98lin> work?
[06:16] <cafuego> briguyd: *shrug* Mine's been fince since x-mas last year.
[06:16] <evan_w00> eyequeue i have no idea lol, im still getting used to Linux
[06:16] <briguyd> Psykus, i think you have to blacklist the broadcom driver that loads automatically
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  i cant say that ive ever wanted to MAKE a .rar :) heh.
[06:16] <sethk> gldtn, grub not installed properly
[06:16] <evan_w00> eyequeue so im guessing im not ;)

[06:16] <cl187> hi
[06:16] <Psykus> briguyd, yeah, I figured, but the link on the wiki showing how to do that is dead
[06:16] <cl187> got question
[06:16] <Elephant> WC, that sounds like your system isn't booting from the installation CD
[06:16] <Psykus> poningru, thanks, will check it out
[06:16] <poningru> Psykus: use cafuegos firmware
[06:16] <briguyd> cafuego, i had trouble setting it up when i upgraded to dapper
[06:16] <DShepherd> cl187: me too
[06:16] <eyequeue> evan_w00, sudo apt-get install unrar
[06:16] <eyequeue> evan_w00, sudo apt-get install rar
[06:16] <cl187> is there a tool kinda like winblows where you can view wireless networks around?
[06:16] <poningru> Psykus: dont thank me thank cafuego over there
[06:16] <cheesy1> Does anyone know how to get vmware server sound working? I get failed to open sound device;/dev/dsp device or resource busy.
[06:16] <briguyd> Psykus, ah, lemme try to find a new one
[06:17] <WayCool> elephant: exactly, the question is why...
[06:17] <flasher> i've already installed msttcorefonts  but i still can't see any fonts in flash. please advise
[06:17] <garrett|mobile> cl187, I was wondering the same.
[06:17] <cafuego> briguyd: You need the latest firmware, then it works pretty much OK (and without ndiswrapper)
[06:17] <Elephant> one of two things, most likely
[06:17] <evan_w00> eyequeue oh ok thanks
[06:17] <sahasrara> DShepherd: ok, well the guy who downloaded the .iso for me acted like to clone a bootable cd you have to get an .iso from the livecd, and *then* make another bootable cd
[06:17] <eyequeue> evan_w00, whichever one you want
[06:17] <gldtn> sethk, well in this case it should be built by default right? or if not, how should I proceed?

[06:17] <Elephant> 1.  the hard drive comes before the CD on the boot list
[06:17] <briguyd> cafuego, mine works fine, Psykus's doesnt
[06:17] <sahasrara> ok another question - i just ran Nero MD5
[06:17] <Elephant> 2.  The CD wasn't burned as a bootable image
[06:17] <poningru> jeez what is up with this crazy traffic
[06:17] <DShepherd> sahasrara: now you know.. have you tried what I suggested
[06:17] <sahasrara> woops - i just ran Nero MD5 Checker on my Kubuntu .iso and it says it failed... i burned it at 16x too i don't know why it failed
[06:18] <garrett|mobile> poningru, No crap. I'm getting sick trying to keep up. :(
[06:18] <sycron> Alright, I've got mp3 support now. Many thanks to everyone who pointed me in the right direction.
[06:18] <flasher> poningru: if that ! flash was for me, i'm afraid it does'nt help my "no fonts/text in flash" problem
[06:18] <eyequeue> poningru, 809 lusers
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  ark has a 'rar' option right there in the make new archive.. items..
[06:18] <Elephant> sahasrara:  Shut EVERYTHING else off while you're burning
[06:18] <magneticubuntu> ANYONE USING MYTHTV HERE?
[06:18] <sahasrara> DShepherd: i can try that, thanks, first i need to figure out why the .iso failed the MD5 check
[06:18] <DShepherd> sahasrara: i know why it failed either.. you running ubuntu of kubuntu?
[06:18] <sahasrara> Elephant: ok
[06:18] <poningru> flasher: hmm
[06:18] <garrett|mobile> eyequeue, was that "lusers" on purpose? :P
[06:18] <DShepherd> sahasrara: i dont know *
[06:18] <poningru> flasher: what version of flash do you have?
[06:19] <eyequeue> garrett|mobile, i'm old school, yes :)
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  yep.. made me a little .rar with ark. :)
[06:19] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis hmm, but Ark cannot seem to open my rars
[06:19] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis ahhhh
[06:19] <flasher> poningru: the one from the repository. i've just installed flash 3 days ago or so
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> evan_w00,  then pehaps ya dont have all the rar tools installed it needs
[06:19] <sahasrara> DShepherd: am i running what? i burned an .iso of kubuntu from someone else's edubuntu machine
[06:19] <briguyd> Psykus, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188775
[06:19] <garrett|mobile> eyequeue, you just made me blow coffee out of my nose a little when you did that.
[06:19] <evan_w00> Dr_Willis probally :/
[06:19] <sahasrara> DShepherd: so i guess the machine used K3B
[06:19] <eyequeue> garrett|mobile, it's actually old-irc term
[06:19] <DShepherd> sahasrara: are you running kubuntu now?
[06:19] <allen> found it
[06:20] <poningru> sahasrara: dude 16x is not a good speed
[06:20] <WayCool> elephant: 1. is not the case - I've changed the booting order for CD to be first (but strangely, comp is still checking the floppy (a) drive for some reason.  2.  I've copied instalation image files from DSL site as recomended.  I assumed they were bootable.  If not what do I do?
[06:20] <sahasrara> so now i have 4 cd's which may be no good, according to the md5 checker (livecd *and* .iso's of both kubuntu and edubuntu)
[06:20] <allen> I think it is about time for a snack
[06:20] <sahasrara> DShepherd: no, i'm on my home win98 machine
[06:20] <poningru> 4x is the best speed for non corruption
[06:20] <eyequeue> !botsnack
[06:20] <Psykus> poningru, ok, installed, should it work now?
[06:20] <ubotu> Yum!
[06:20] <magneticubuntu> sahasrara, you using winblows to burn it or wtf?
[06:20] <poningru> Psykus: no you have to restart
[06:20] <flasher> poningru: any other questionss?
[06:20] <DShepherd> sahasrara: ok.. well just making a copy of the cd works just fine
[06:21] <Psykus> i noticed that ubuntu gave it "/dev/eth1", I figured it would be wlan0
[06:21] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: you have to start somewhere :-)
[06:21] <jeff_> How can I find out what video card and drivers I am using????
[06:21] <poningru> Psykus: thats fine
[06:21] <sahasrara> poningru: that's what i tried to tell the guy, i tried setting it to 4x, but he said "oh that'll take forever" so he suggested 16x, i think i'll just download my own .iso's on my dialup then and/or order CD's
[06:21] <Psykus> ok, rebooting then
[06:21] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, you knew to ubuntu?
[06:21] <sethk> jeff_, video card:  lspci
[06:21] <magneticubuntu> or linux in general?
[06:21] <Psykus> there goes my uptime :(
[06:21] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: define new?
[06:21] <poningru> flasher: unfortunately ... no dude :(
[06:21] <allen> lets see now do I change my nick name in IRC hmmm
[06:21] <sethk> jeff_, drivers, you can hunt around in /sys, or if it is a module, see it with lsmod
[06:21] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, erm
[06:21] <kieran> Hi all.
[06:21] <eyequeue> allen, /nick othername
[06:21] <flasher> poningru: ok. thankns anyway.
[06:21] <poningru> Psykus: hehe
[06:21] <sahasrara> DShepherd: ok, but i think my cd's are all corrupted if i go by the MD5 check, however - the 2 bootable cd's work! so they seem fine to me
[06:21] <magneticubuntu> hi kieran
[06:21] <dbcef> got it already eyequeue
[06:21] <poningru> flasher: flash in linux in general is crappy
[06:21] <magneticubuntu> sahasrara, that is amazing
[06:22] <poningru> sorry dude
[06:22] <dbcef> had to remember
[06:22] <DShepherd> sahasrara: kool
[06:22] <flasher> poningru: yes, but on an anonther comp, i was able to get text in flash
[06:22] <poningru> flasher: my only other suggestion is to look through the forums
[06:22] <flasher> poningru: yes,
[06:22] <sahasrara> magneticubuntu: yeah i'm *going* to use windows to burn cd's, these 4 cd's were burned on edubuntu though
[06:22] <flasher> will do
[06:22] <flasher> forums sure are slow now.
[06:22] <flasher> anyone agree?
[06:23] <magneticubuntu> Saharr: are you using cheap mediaz?
[06:23] <dbcef> Linux is freaking strange
[06:23] <dbcef> LOL
[06:23] <garrett|mobile> flasher, I do.
[06:23] <sahasrara> magneticubuntu: hm but the MD5 check doesn't list .iso's in the file selection when it asks you to point to the file to check, so i did "All Files" ... i wonder if it can check .iso's then
[06:23] <sahasrara> magneticubuntu: nope, i'm using Taiyo Yuden unbranded :)
[06:23] <flasher> what's wrong with the forums? are they down?
[06:23] <kieran> Howcome when i install eclipse with apt-get it installs 3.1 when 3.2 is in universe?
[06:24] <poningru> garrett|mobile: you are'nt mathew garrett are you?
[06:24] <WayCool> elephant: still there :) ?
[06:24] <eyequeue> sahasrara, an iso is just another file, md5sum works on them, it's just slow
[06:24] <VileChild> It's already been established to me, Ubuntu is a great distribution etc, but I'd like to begin developing (Python as a first languae
[06:24] <VileChild> Is it well suited? : o
[06:24] <sahasrara> i'm just gonna have to take a week to download .iso's, or order cd's if i want to be sure and do it myself i guess
[06:24] <VileChild> I'm also an active web developer ... so that's kind of important
[06:24] <sahasrara> eyequeue: ok, thanks
[06:24] <poningru> VileChild: yes
[06:24] <DShepherd> VileChild: its more than well suited
[06:24] <eyequeue> VileChild, many ubuntu devs prefer python, so yes :)
[06:24] <DShepherd> VileChild: imho
[06:24] <sethk> VileChild, very well suited
[06:24] <VileChild> lol ok that was easy ^^

[06:25] <kieran> yeah, sorry.
[06:25] <VileChild> barely anything in the command line

[06:26] <poningru> !shipit > sahasrara
[06:26] <sahasrara> poningru: but it takes 6 to 10 weeks, and someone told me theirs took like 3 months (but they sent him a whole load of cd's)

[06:27] <poningru> s|k: 7zip
[06:27] <VileChild> Oh, one of the main reaons I never stuck to a Linux distribution were problems with the web browsers/ fonts..
[06:27] <poningru> sahasrara: hehe check to see if you have a lug around where you live
[06:27] <sahasrara> Frankenstein: lol
[06:28] <s|k> poningru: works on windows?
[06:28] <sethk> VileChild, firefox is excellent.  I use it in windows as well as linux
[06:28] <mneptok> arr!
[06:28] <poningru> s|k: yep
[06:28] <poningru> VileChild: regarding the font there is a gui for font addition
[06:28] <snoops> the number of web browsers for linux I find is insane
[06:28] <sahasrara> poningru: i do... been reluctant to go since i had a wee conflict with one of the members years ago :)
[06:28] <NewUser> is it possible to partition a usb drive so that both partitions can be see by windows ?
[06:28] <VileChild> sethk: Yes I use Firefox as well, but everytime i'd create a web page it would look different on windows
[06:28] <mneptok> NewUser: sure. make 2 FAT32 partitions
[06:28] <sahasrara> but maybe he'll let go of old stuff for the sake of linux unity!
[06:28] <sethk> VileChild, with recent firefox I haven't seen that.  I'm not a windows expert, though
[06:28] <s|k> poningru: thanks!
[06:28] <Elephant> I was thinking ext2fs
[06:28] <DShepherd> VileChild: really? different in firefox on windows?
[06:28] <poningru> s|k: yep
[06:29] <Sythen> I am trying to mount a read only NTFS partition. Should I use umask, and if so, should I use umask=0002 or umask=0222
[06:29] <poningru> DShepherd: that is because ubuntu uses pango for font rendering
[06:29] <sethk> NewUser, it's impossible to make two partitions and have windows not see it.
[06:29] <VileChild> ya
[06:29] <NewUser> mneptok: is it  just cfdisk /dev/sda ? just that?
[06:29] <sahasrara> there was an installfest a couple months ago i think
[06:29] <snoops> I've got ie5, ie5.5, ie6, firefox, konqueror, opera, epiphany, and galeon to name a few all working perfectly on nix
[06:29] <poningru> VileChild: you can just use the official packages from mozilla.com in linux as well
[06:29] <Sythen> snoops, what are you running IE under?
[06:29] <VileChild> When I was using Zenwalk I had Links/Lynx/Firefox and Dillo : P
[06:29] <BeepAU> hey everyone, i installed cedega, but then decided i didn't want it, so uninstalled. now, i can't get the menu it installed out of my apps menu. how can i get rid of it? the menu editor won't remove it.
[06:29] <snoops> Sythen under wine
[06:29] <VileChild> hm i guess.. i'll have to get reading
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> Sythen,   http://wiki.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfs-en#can_i_mount_an_ntfs_volume     - more NTFS info thenyou can imagine!
[06:29] <sahasrara> so you guys really think that if the cd is not burned at absolute lowest speed you are risking corruption?
[06:30] <DShepherd> Sythen: type umask at the terminal..
[06:30] <NewUser> in windows as far as I can tell I need to downgrade to 98 or buy 3rd party software
[06:30] <Dr_Willis> Sythen,  in short use 0222 :P
[06:30] <poningru> garrett|mobile: http://flickr.com/photos/carlosliu/92092206/ is that your brother?
[06:30] <Sythen> Dr_Willis, that gave me 0022 should I use that?
[06:30] <sycron> !nicotine
[06:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nicotine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:30] <Sythen> and what is it?
[06:30] <fr500> hello
[06:30] <sethk> NewUser, for a usb drive in windows?  No, not at all
[06:30] <DShepherd> VileChild: well that doesnt happen here..as long as you have the fonts installed it should be fine
[06:30] <poningru> sahasrara: well no... but it depends on the cd... and the burner quality, but why risk it?
[06:30] <fr500> how can i enable dvd playback for totem?
[06:30] <fr500> !dvd
[06:30] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[06:31] <sethk> NewUser, you can't partition it in windows that way, but once it is partitioned, windows will see it.
[06:31] <poningru> woah
[06:31] <rupert> Im having trouble getting network manager to work. wpa_supplicant is apparently having trouble. Could someone look at my log file and help me get it working? http://pastebin.ca/133529
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> Sythen,  Hmm.. not sure what the diff is..  i think 0222 may be safer.
[06:31] <sethk> NewUser, so your third party software is linux
[06:31] <Sythen> Dr_Willis, okay, thanks
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> Sythen,  try one, and see what the files permissions are.. then try the other.

[06:38] <junaid> Hi, ubuntu newbie here. I need some help with setting up my SD card (internal) reader on dapper. Someone have the time?
[06:38] <c0rrupt`> ey does anyone know if there is PLINK for linux?
[06:38] <c0rrupt`> i would use ssh but it doesnt have the -pw switch for tunnels
[06:39] <WayCool> Dr. W: I have no problem burning the CD with this .iso file; the problem comes later when I am trying to boot the system from it to start the DSL install
[06:39] <sanfaix> how get support for telugu fonts for firefox
[06:39] <hAvAAck> hey does anyone know if there's a certain defect I should be looking for when I attempt to install/run live CD of ubuntu and get "kernel panic"?
[06:40] <DShepherd> WayCool: you on gnome? if you are.. just right click the cd image and click burn ISO. that should make it bootable.
[06:41] <WayCool> Dsh: I am now working from under windows...
[06:41] <Dr_Willis> WayCool,  its Possible the cd image is bad.. or the dsl live cd - dont like your system/
[06:41] <kieran> Just burn the image with alcohol 120 or nero...
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> DSL worked for me on this box.. but DSL-N dident. :()
[06:42] <sycron> Can I make (or is there already) a shortcut keyboard command to open a terminal window? Say alt+t or something?
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> 'Burn at once' is a nice iso burner program for windows. Free. :P and small
[06:42] <WayCool> DrW: I am using ONES to burn.
[06:43] <sycron> No?
[06:43] <mneptok> hAvAAck: have you MD5summed the CD image you have, and burned another copy if the sum is correct?
[06:43] <VileChild> I have one more question for all of you :), it's recently come to my attention that I live beside multiple neighbourhood hot spots and was wondering how Ubuntu wil handle wireless? That's basically my only form of an internet connection in my room
[06:43] <Geoffrey2> what would be a good photo program in the repos to use to cut the file size of jpgs?
[06:43] <jordan> Can somebody help me with this gnomebaker Error? (The plugin to handle a file of type audio/mpeg is not installed.)
[06:43] <WayCool> and I tried two diff images for DSL with same results: the system doesn't boot from the burnt cd
[06:44] <LJHarb> hello
[06:44] <LJHarb> i have a question.,
[06:44] <cheesy1> c0rrupt`, don't think there is but could be wrong. supplying passwords from shell invocation is terrible from a security standpoint.
[06:44] <c0rrupt`> i know
[06:44] <c0rrupt`> but thats irrelevant
[06:44] <hAvAAck> mneptok- I'm not quite sure what MD5summed is :( I burned myself a cd twice, but it was from the same iso
[06:44] <junaid> VileChild: ubuntu wireless is simple. My laptop has had no problems working in many different places
[06:45] <LJHarb> i just installed ubuntu server with lamp, and i can shell into it fine locally - and when the server is set to acquire an ip from the router with dhcp, and ive forwarded port 22, i can shell into the server remotely too
[06:45] <mneptok> hAvAAck: are you using a Unix-like OS now?
[06:45] <LJHarb> but when i set the server to use a static ip from the router, i can only shell in locally
[06:45] <hAvAAck> mneptok: no, windows xp
[06:45] <VileChild> junaid: So should I buy any specific type of wireless card? I'm pretty sure the wireless routers will be compatible, they work with my brothers laptop and my nintendo ds as well
[06:45] <garrett|mobile> I'm off like a prom dress.
[06:45] <mneptok> hAvAAck: no idea how to md5sum a file on Windows. but GIYF.
[06:45] <amicrawler> did they ever fix the nvidia  in ubuntu
[06:45] <garrett|mobile> Later #ubuntu.
[06:45] <LJHarb> theres a free prog you can download havaack
[06:46] <pike_> amicrawler: ?
[06:46] <LJHarb> ami, what nvidia problem?
[06:46] <amicrawler> yes
[06:46] <jbroome> md5summer i think is what you're looking for
[06:46] <fluvvell> amicrawler: my nvidia works perfectly
[06:46] <Geoffrey2> I have some jpgs that were taken with a digital camera, and I'd like to trim them down in terms of file size before posting them for online viewing
[06:46] <reuben> question -- how do i restore the partition table of a disk? i can mount it manually, but if i look at it using fdisk or parted they claim no partitions
[06:46] <junaid> VileChild: I've only used a centrino laptop
[06:46] <amicrawler> were in bager all you need to do is load the deb files
[06:46] <amicrawler> and reset x
[06:46] <WayCool> poningru: I tried installing two diff images from DSL: dsl-3.0.1.iso and dsl-3.0.1-syslinux.iso
[06:46] <LJHarb> my nvidia has a problem, thats why im asking too
[06:46] <pike_> amicrawler: your using a k7 kernel by chance?
[06:46] <magneticubuntu> Guys I dont have Art Manager in My Prefs on Dapper? HOw to find it please?
[06:47] <fluvvell> amicrawler: did you do   sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[06:47] <WayCool> poningru: with same results...  no booting...
[06:47] <amicrawler> nope i'm a 686i
[06:47] <mneptok> magneticubuntu: "Art Manager?"
[06:47] <Cirvin_Fox> my USB flash drive is not detected when i plug it into the computer, the light doesnt even come on, but sometimes it will work if i have it in the computer when i boot up, any idea why this is?
[06:47] <poningru> WayCool: dsl? damn small lin?
[06:47] <WayCool> poningru: yes
[06:47] <VileChild> damn small was my first distribution : P
[06:47] <amicrawler> how do i get the new snyapticks gui?
[06:47] <LJHarb> ok did anyone have any ideas for my question?
[06:47] <poningru> WayCool: sorry to be rude but why are you asking here about dsl?
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> amicrawler,  new?
[06:48] <poningru> LJHarb: whats wrong?
[06:48] <hAvAAck> awesome, thanks a lot. I DLed md5summer and I'll check the cd
[06:48] <LJHarb> "i just installed ubuntu server with lamp, and i can shell into it fine locally - and when the server is set to acquire an ip from the router with dhcp, and ive forwarded port 22, i can shell into the server remotely too"
[06:48] <fluvvell> LJHarb: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[06:48] <amicrawler> that mepis has
[06:48] <VileChild> ./join #dsl
[06:48] <LJHarb> thanks fluv, ill try that for my nvidia problem... still got the ssh problem tho
[06:48] <ablyss> i believe warty used some nvidia legacy cards w/ out a hitch, dapper on the other hand is more picky and legacy cards wont work with any other driver but legacy
[06:48] <WayCool> poningru: I didn
[06:48] <LJHarb> fluv: says command not found.
[06:48] <mneptok> LJHarb: did you set your router to forward port 22 to the static IP you gave the machine?
[06:48] <poningru> oh... sorry
[06:48] <LJHarb> yes
[06:48] <WayCool> poningru: I didn't know they had a channel :)
[06:48] <pike_> LJHarb: the static ip is the same assigned through dhcp when you setup forwarding to that port right?
[06:48] <reuben> **how do i restore the partition table of a disk? i can mount it manually, but if i look at it using fdisk or parted they claim no partitions (sorry for the repeat, it's busy!!)
[06:49] <LJHarb> mneptok: and the router also forwards ports to other static ip'd computers and those work fine
[06:49] <poningru> WayCool: they do
[06:49] <WayCool> ok :)
[06:49] <LJHarb> no, wrong pike - but i change the interfaces file when i change from dhcp to static
[06:49] <foo> Is there alsaconf in ubuntu >?
[06:49] <WayCool> thank's guys :)))
[06:49] <StreetSmart> Hey guys, can anyone tell me how to remove my windows partition icon from the desktop.
[06:49] <Cirvin_Fox> my USB flash drive is not detected when i plug it into the computer, the light doesnt even come on, but sometimes it will work if i have it in the computer when i boot up, any idea why this is?
[06:49] <LJHarb> i use 192.168.1.97 for static, and .101 or something for dhcp
[06:49] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: trying install gnome-art package
[06:49] <LJHarb> but i always change the forwarding to match.
[06:49] <junaid> which channel should i go to for issues with my laptop's sd-card reader?
[06:49] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: trying installing the gnome-art package
[06:49] <mneptok> LJHarb: and you used ifconfig to ensure that the Ubuntu machine is actually using the IP you want on the interface you expect?
[06:49] <LJHarb> and i can ping to and from the machines too
[06:49] <jrattner1> QUESTION: Anyone have a Treo 700p here
[06:49] <LJHarb> yes
[06:49] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, thx
[06:49] <LJHarb> to mnep.
[06:50] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: np
[06:50] <pike_> junaid: here
[06:50] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, installing :P
[06:50] <fluvvell> LJHarb: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[06:50] <Psykus> anyone know why network manager would not be seeing any of my network connections?
[06:50] <VileChild> By default, what development tools does Ubuntu come with any decent dev tools? AND (don't get mad!) is their a nice beginners tutorial to Ubuntu as a first distribution
[06:50] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: let me know if it works
[06:50] <phargle> LJHarb: what do you do with your treo?
[06:50] <magneticubuntu> ANyone running MythTV here?
[06:50] <felipe> hi
[06:50] <magneticubuntu> Or know of an IRC channel?
[06:50] <LJHarb> phar: the treo question was from jrattner
[06:50] <linux_user400354> does anyone know why i am getting this error? $ sudo apt-get install mpg123         Bus errorackage lists... 7%
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> VileChild,  not many dev tools installed at all BY DEFAULT.
[06:50] <felipe> im looking a vide oediting tool for ubuntu, like virtualdub or sony vegas
[06:51] <mneptok> LJHarb: you could always tweak /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf to always ask for the same IP.
[06:51] <Cirvin_Fox> my USB flash drive is not detected when i plug it into the computer, the light doesnt even come on, but sometimes it will work if i have it in the computer when i boot up, any idea why this is?
[06:51] <amicrawler> were do i get new repositors?
[06:51] <magneticubuntu> felipe, use KINO
[06:51] <reuben> felipe - mainactor
[06:51] <felipe> im looking a vide oediting tool for ubuntu, like virtualdub or sony vegas
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> VileChild,  and the ubuntu homepage has oodles of guides.
[06:51] <junaid> pike: thnx. i'm having trouble with my sd card reader.
[06:51] <dbcef> thanks for the help to nigh I am gong to bed
[06:51] <magneticubuntu> felipe, apt-get install kino
[06:51] <sethk> VileChild, by default is strange.  don't confuse the default install options with by default
[06:51] <felipe> ok, thanks
[06:51] <felipe> ok, thanks
[06:51] <mneptok> LJHarb: you can also set such stuff in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:51] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, YAY :) Thanks man
[06:51] <junaid> pike: if a cards in when booting, it gets mounted correctly...
[06:51] <magneticubuntu> I was trying to guess names with apt :)
[06:51] <reuben> felipe - if you need more than kino, mainactor is pretty high end. costs $$s tho
[06:51] <LJHarb> mneptok: yes, in that interfaces file, i have commented entries for dhcp and static that i alternate depending on what im trying
[06:52] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: :-) kool
[06:52] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, for search on apt is it apt-get cache-search?
[06:52] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, for search on apt is it apt-get cache-search "x"
[06:52] <VileChild> hm
[06:52] <sethk> VileChild, if you run expert install, you can choose your dev utilities.
[06:52] <junaid> pike: but when i eject it and re-insert it, it does not show up
[06:52] <mneptok> LJHarb: you can set the DHCP entry to always request the same IP address
[06:52] <sethk> VileChild, or you choose the other package.  ubuntu 'comes with' absolutely all of them.
[06:52] <morphix> hmm.. i installed dapper onto a usb hdd and it seems i have to edit it a bit to get usb loading up when its booting up, i tried to use a breezy cd and get into rescue mode, except it doesnt detect my usb hdd, i am currently booted into my other linux install and mounted the usb hdd and can write to it using sudo, except when i try to do "mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-<kernelver> /lib/modules/<kernelver> i get a error of "is not a v
[06:52] <morphix> alid kernel"
[06:52] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: not its apt-cache search.. but i just use aptitude search
[06:52] <dan> does anyone know what Rhythym Box won't download podcasts?
[06:52] <reuben> QUESTION - last try - anybody know how to restore a partition table on a disk? it'
[06:52] <LJHarb> mneptok: yes, i could do that on the router too, that just seems unnecessary
[06:52] <dan> and is there a better application?
[06:52] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, ah right
[06:52] <DShepherd> magneticubuntu: i prefer using aptitude.. but all are the different means to the same end
[06:53] <junaid> pike: i'm on dapper btw, and it used to work fine on breezy
[06:53] <VileChild> I'm a little worried because I'm hoping to learn python in the process of learning Linux/Ubuntu, but the book I purchased for Python (which is really all I can follow) requires certain software
[06:53] <pike_> junaid: i have always had problems with automount.  it might be as simple as opening a terminal and typing pmount /media/directory  whatever directory it mounted to at first
[06:53] <sethk> VileChild, what software?
[06:53] <felipe> ok, i am downloading it with synaptic.. thanks
[06:53] <DShepherd> dan: i really dont know why.. it should though
[06:53] <dan> yah
[06:53] <VileChild> Python 2.2.3, Pygame 1.5.6 and Livewires
[06:53] <Cirvin_Fox> my USB flash drive is not detected when i plug it into the computer, the light doesnt even come on, but sometimes it will work if i have it in the computer when i boot up, any idea why this is and how to fix it?
[06:53] <magneticubuntu> DShepherd, The download for the art is taking forever..
[06:53] <VileChild> he majority of examples don't work with 2.4.3 though
[06:53] <dan> it tires then gives me failed on every attempt
[06:53] <sethk> VileChild, by the say, it does have plink
[06:53] <mneptok> LJHarb: well, it seems more of a problem with your router than with Ubuntu. so if you want to use Ubuntu to fix the router's issue, i think that's the easiest way.
[06:54] <magneticubuntu> Cirvin_Fox, should work OOTB
[06:54] <sethk> VileChild, just install the earlier python from souce
[06:54] <sethk> VileChild, download and compiler it.
[06:54] <pike_> junaid: what i do is ls -t /dev | head and look for an entry for like sda1 or sdb1 and then type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb0 or whatever
[06:54] <LJHarb> mnep: thats what id think - but my router forwards ports to my static'ed win2k server machine just fine
[06:54] <magneticubuntu> Anyone Running MythTV?
[06:54] <LJHarb> flux: i installed that, then enabled it... lemme restart the server and see if its fixed
[06:54] <Cirvin_Fox> IT used to work back with hoary, but since i upgraded to dapper, (stepped up of course) it doesnt
[06:55] <amicrawler> how to get kde?
[06:55] <LJHarb> i mean fluv.
[06:55] <sycron> Anyone know of a good terminal commands site? Maybe a wiki or something?
[06:55] <Cirvin_Fox> i fear it may be an issue witht the device itself since my DSL box does the same thing
[06:55] <DShepherd> amicrawler: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[06:55] <dan> has anyone tried Amarox?
[06:55] <morphix> nevermind i figured it out. chrooted into the dir. then did it
[06:55] <junaid> pike: thnx. when i eject the card, /dev/mmcblk0p1 disappears, and i'm not able to remount it after that
[06:55] <pike_> sycron: the apropos command is useful like apropos format or whatever it searches man pages for you
[06:56] <damned[office] > morning
[06:56] <VileChild> sycron: http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/linux/cmd/ ?
[06:56] <junaid> pike: ie unless i reboot
[06:56] <amicrawler> Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[06:56] <amicrawler> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process usin
[06:56] <sycron> Thanks for both of those
[06:56] <DShepherd> dan: you mean Amarok.. yes I am sure some of us have tried it
[06:56] <hAvAAck> mneptok- I ran MD5summer on the disk and it came back with zero errors
[06:56] <junaid> pike: dmesg says " generic_make_request: Trying to access nonexistent block-device mmcblk0 (0)"
[06:56] <dan> think its better to use for podcatching than Rhythymbox?
[06:56] <DShepherd> amicrawler: you have synaptic running?  you need to close it or allow it to finish what it is doing..
[06:57] <amicrawler> humm doing updates
[06:57] <Cirvin_Fox> has anyone else had a USB flash drive not work on their machine when plugged it?
[06:57] <DShepherd> amicrawler: ok.. when you done.. run the command i gave you
[06:57] <pike_> junaid: this is an internal card reader then not usb right?
[06:58] <junaid> pike: yes
[06:58] <amicrawler> why can;t i run 2 diffrent  downloads @ the same time
[06:58] <LJHarb> fluv: i still have my nvidia issue - the bottom 3 lines of the screen are cut off on the monitor, but not in ssh of course.
[06:58] <LJHarb> mneptok: no idea why the ubuntu server would behave differently when set to static ip vs dhcp?
[06:58] <sshack> Hi, is there anywhere I can get a list of packages available in ubuntu? I'm particularly interested in lisp and scheme packages
[06:58] <junaid> pike: and its using wbsd
[06:58] <sycron> hm
[06:59] <DShepherd> sshack: packages.ubuntu.com
[06:59] <amicrawler> windows vista bites
[06:59] <jordan> Can somebody help me with this gnomebaker Error? (The plugin to handle a file of type audio/mpeg is not installed.)
[06:59] <amicrawler> eats up to much resoures
[06:59] <amicrawler> and ram  and video
[06:59] <sshack> DShepherd: Awesome.
[07:00] <DShepherd> sshack: kool
[07:00] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i manually mount a USB flash drive?
[07:00] <sshack> DShepherd: any way to find out what packages are available for sparc?
[07:01] <cheesy1> LJHarb, subnet ?
[07:01] <sshack> Seems the filter is listed to i386/ppc and amd64
[07:01] <mweisert> hey there everyone... I'm new to ubuntu and I am having issues getting it recognize my Rhine III Ethernet adaptor.  Any ideas?
[07:01] <DShepherd> sshack: I am not sure
[07:01] <amicrawler> mount /dev/!!!!!!!!/
[07:01] <sshack> Fair enough.
[07:01] <LJHarb> cheesy: subnet, addr, and gateway are manually specified in etc/network/interfaces when i try static.
[07:01] <sshack> DShepherd: I appreciate the help.
[07:01] <DShepherd> amicrawler: calm down
[07:02] <amicrawler> i am
[07:02] <DShepherd> sshack: no problem
[07:02] <LJHarb> cheesy: and i can ping fine, and access from local network fine - just not from outside the router. but when i switch to dhcp config, i cant connect from outside.
[07:02] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i manually mount a USB flash drive?
[07:02] <sycron> !dkpg
[07:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dkpg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:02] <sycron> err
[07:02] <amicrawler> it was just showing out buddy how to mount
[07:02] <DShepherd> sycron: wat do you want to know?
[07:02] <amicrawler> in unix
[07:02] <sycron> Oh, I was just wondering what dpkg means
[07:02] <sycron> decompress package?
[07:02] <briguyd> no
[07:03] <cafuego> debian package (manager)
[07:03] <briguyd> yep
[07:03] <amicrawler> add-pkg  !!!!!!!!!!.tgz
[07:03] <cafuego> dpkg is the command you use to install/remove packages.
[07:03] <junaid> pike: thanks for the time. maybe i'll just keep searching some more for the answer...
[07:03] <cafuego> amicrawler: pkg_add you mean?
[07:03] <pike_> i dont know you might try restarting some of the init.d scripts to see if one works like /etc/init.d/mountvirtfs restart and if it works take a look at what it did ... sory

[07:04] <mweisert> sorry to ask again... can anyone recomment a way to get Ubuntu to recognize my Rhine III Ethernet adaptor?
[07:05] <magneticmos> VIA Rhine?
[07:05] <mweisert> yes
[07:05] <cafuego> sycron: From the `dpkg' man page: dpkg -i | --install package_file... "Install  the  package."
[07:05] <magneticmos> its pci or onboard?
[07:05] <mweisert> onboard
[07:05] <Necrosan> How do I make /dev/audioctl be there?
[07:06] <DShepherd> sycron: it installs the package that you ran it on
[07:06] <jbroome> mweisert: is it enabled in the BIOS?  Mine was autodetected fine
[07:06] <mweisert> no, did I miss a step somewhere?
[07:06] <amicrawler> were do i find a  good satlite app
[07:06] <Necrosan> How do I make /dev/audioctl be there?
[07:07] <mweisert> I popped the cd in last night, went to work, it was installed when I got home
[07:07] <jbroome> Oooh, fios.  sweet!
[07:07] <amicrawler> were do i find a  good satlite app
[07:07] <mweisert> How do I enable it in the BIOS?
[07:07] <mweisert> oh wait
[07:07] <mweisert> you mean <DEL> on startup BIOS?
[07:08] <jbroome> yesh
[07:08] <jbroome> err, yeah
[07:08] <mweisert> it should be... my windows partition gets it
[07:08] <jbroome> humm, then i'm at a loss, and on my way to bed
[07:09] <jnoon> can someone point me in the right direction of making a meta-package that will install a group of other packages ive built all at once?
[07:09] <mweisert> k, thanks anyways

[07:10] <LJHarb> ok so when im on the local session on my ubuntu server, the bottom 3 lines of text are cut off (ssh works fine of course) any idea how to fix it?
[07:11] <eyequeue> jnoon, debian/confrol is the key file, Depends: is the key line
[07:11] <eyequeue> jnoon, debian/control
[07:12] <eyequeue> jnoon, copy the rest from any source package i guess, and modify as appropriate (apt-get -b source foo, as user not sudo)
[07:12] <LJHarb> if it matters, i have a geforce 2 video cards.

[07:12] <amicrawler> grep | tail ~ sysinfo
[07:13] <Brokenstein> im trying to identify some problems im having and i noticed in system monitor i have 2 gdm processes running and 6 getty... all asleep. is this normal?
[07:13] <Toma-> LJHarb: what vga setting you using?
[07:13] <cafuego> Brokenstein: yes
[07:13] <LJHarb> toma, how do i check that?
[07:13] <LJHarb> toma, i think i picked 1024x768 or something when i installed but i forget
[07:13] <Toma-> LJHarb: itll be in the kernel boot line options
[07:13] <eyequeue> Brokenstein, the 6 getty are vt1 through vt6
[07:14] <eyequeue> Brokenstein, i don't know gdm part
[07:14] <Toma-> LJHarb: check out the vga= section of menu.lst
[07:14] <LJHarb> toma: and i would find that how?
[07:14] <LJHarb> toma: wheres that located?
[07:14] <Toma-> /boot/grub
[07:14] <jnoon> eyequeue, thanks
[07:14] <eyequeue> jnoon, np
[07:15] <eyequeue> jnoon, you'll need to have the packages in a repo that the machine can reach though for this to work of course
[07:15] <Brokenstein> so should i really have 2 gdm running?
[07:16] <LJHarb> toma: i dont see anything about vga in menu.lst except something thats commented
[07:16] <Toma-> LJHarb: hmm ok
[07:16] <eyequeue> jnoon, dpkg-scanpackages, may be helpful

[07:26] <alienseer23> the project is called bitpim, from sourceforge, but I do not understand how to get the sourcecode off of their sight
[07:26] <alienseer23> hobb, that did not work for this packages
[07:26] <alienseer23> I tried it already
[07:26] <alienseer23> thanks, tho

[07:27] <kevinh90> ubuntu surprised me
[07:27] <amicrawler> kevin what do you think of thelinux world
[07:28] <psyphen_> hey guys quick question
[07:28] <kevinh90> amicrawler, linux is great, i have been using it for about 2 years
[07:28] <Psykus> ugh, this isn't working, trying to set up an ad-hoc wifi connection between my ubuntu desktop and windows laptop, not sure which side is refusing to cooperate, but it's not working
[07:28] <kevinh90> amicrawler, just as soon as i used ubuntu i switched everything over
[07:28] <amicrawler> oh ?
[07:28] <amicrawler> i switched from suse and freebsd
[07:29] <kevinh90> i switched from gentoo
[07:29] <psyphen_> i'm having a problem with programs recognizing installed libraries, anybody having the same thing? opera doesn't work, airpwn doesn't work, etc. it says it can't find them ,but they're definitely installed.
[07:29] <kevinh90> and debian
[07:29] <amicrawler> gentoo to much updating
[07:29] <fyrestrtr> psyphen_: install the -dev versions
[07:29] <psyphen_> /usr/lib/opera/9.01-20060728.6/opera: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:29] <kevinh90> amicrawler, i agree
[07:29] <psyphen_> but the libqt-mt.so.3 file is there
[07:29] <psyphen_> i did a locate, and it found it in the correct lib folder
[07:30] <cafuego> psyphen_: Install the static opera
[07:30] <kevinh90> only time gentoo is fast is when it is not updating, and unless your pc is super fast you are updating about 12 hours a day
[07:30] <amicrawler> well just gor kde in the system
[07:30] <psyphen_> i did, but its not working
[07:30] <fyrestrtr> psyphen_: how did you install opera?
[07:31] <kevinh90> amicrawler, i usually get a minimal X with twm before i dive into getting kde
[07:31] <cafuego> psyphen_: The static opera version doesn't need libqt.
[07:31] <amicrawler> kde is good
[07:31] <amicrawler> i like cde
[07:31] <amicrawler> and  xfce
[07:31] <moj0rising> I love KDE.
[07:31] <psyphen_> hmm that's weird
[07:31] <kevinh90> before i got ubuntu i didnt like gnome
[07:32] <psyphen_> i've g2g though
[07:32] <psyphen_> i'll come back later
[07:32] <psyphen_> cya
[07:32] <Flannel> kevinh90: there's KDE in ubuntu too, if you'd prefer
[07:32] <amicrawler> gnome if for the birds
[07:32] <moj0rising> Does anyone here know where I can find some good NFS instructions?
[07:32] <flasher> i'm having a hard time viewing a website that uses mostly flash. is there a way to download the tiny website onto my hard drive? I'm particulary desirious of the html pages. thanks
[07:32] <kieran> I wish there was a flux ubuntu distro.
[07:32] <kevinh90> Flannel, i noticed that, but with ubuntu i like gnome better
[07:32] <moj0rising> Yes. I use Kubuntu.
[07:32] <kieran> Easy enough to install flux, but a distro would be even better
[07:33] <fyrestrtr> flasher: wget can take care of that for you.
[07:33] <flasher> fyrestrtr: thanks. what command do i run to get ALL pages
[07:33] <flasher> ?
[07:33] <kevinh90> kind of like fedora, gnome is better than kde
[07:33] <kevinh90> i tried both ubuntu and kubuntu
[07:34] <Psykus> i didn't really like the way they had kubuntu laid out, seemed really unpolished, at least the UI
[07:34] <amicrawler> why can;t i find gui CDE
[07:34] <amicrawler> in ubuntu?

[07:35] <River> what is the best player / viewer to use to watch wmv files ? Totem chokes on wmv's
[07:35] <kevinh90> moj0rising, i think that kubuntu/xubuntu just get a little less thought put into them
[07:35] <moj0rising> I think they have fewer resources.
[07:35] <moj0rising> put into them.
[07:35] <Flannel> not to stifle this discussion, but.... gnome vs KDE vs [other]  talks belong in #ubuntu-offtopic, so you all know.  !offtopic doesn't mention it anymore.
[07:36] <moj0rising> I think it is more than sufficient though.
[07:36] <snoops> is there a way to configure wine so when applications are opened in it, they don't have that terrible dark gray for the window system colour?

[07:36] <kevinh90> uh theres no ops

[07:37] <GodMode> Is there a place I can download an Ubuntu boot CD that will load the appropriate USB drivers BEFORE attempting to boot? (I have ubuntu installed on a USB drive, and my BIOS doesn't like this)

[07:37] <GodMode> I am pretty illiterate when it comes to hard coding a boot CD.

[07:38] <amicrawler> any body home?
[07:38] <timothy> ok, madpilot: one question, "Run the mkdev.sh script in the lm-sensors source." what does 'in the lm-sensors source' mean, exactly?
[07:39] <kieran> the source directory
[07:39] <Madpilot> timothy, to be honest, you can ignore that and just the the sensors setup program
[07:39] <timothy> madpilot: ok, will give it a try
[07:39] <Madpilot> just *run* the setup program, is what I meant to type...

[07:44] <zanpakuto> Goblyn, probably mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda /mnt/windows
[07:44] <LJHarb> flasher: make sure the file is actually in the directory and named appropriately, case sensitive.
[07:44] <zanpakuto> Goblyn, probably mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
[07:45] <flasher> LJHarb: yes,  i see the blue background image (water image) but what about the flowchart, as the text says?
[07:45] <LJHarb> the flowchart isnt there - and when i access the image directly, it gives a 404 error. meaning the webserver cant find the image file.
[07:45] <zanpakuto> Goblyn, I am not sure if there is a gui in ubuntu for that.
[07:45] <LJHarb> so shell in, and check the directory to make sure its actually there
[07:46] <jamesstansell> flasher: or contact the website administrator

[07:57] <h6w> Flannel: Actually, I think I'm asking the wrong question.  I just booted from the "Alternate" CD and it only gave me OEM or Text mode option.  The whole reason I was running the desktop one was so that I could grab the xorg.conf file it used to run the Live CD.
[07:58] <h6w> My existing ubuntu system won't work with my new 865GV chipset.  It seems to freeze on boot.
[07:58] <h6w> I mean it freezes soon after you log in.

[08:10] <poningru> kiranp1987: hmm it should
[08:10] <poningru> kiranp1987: are you sure you are holding down ctrl and alt then pressing f1?
[08:10] <Lilandra> no, it's not cached :)
[08:11] <manmadha> poningru, thank u
[08:11] <cafuego> Then do an 'apt-cache show wpasupplicant' and grab the Filename: part.
[08:11] <kiranp1987> um, yeah, pretty definitive
[08:11] <cafuego> Just add a repository to the front of that and wget it.
[08:11] <Lilandra> ah! thanks
[08:12] <poningru> kiranp1987: hmm
[08:12] <poningru> go into konsole

[08:12] <amicrawler> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[08:12] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: uso sudo
[08:12] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: use sudo*
[08:12] <amicrawler> that is what i get when i try to get libcssdvd for xine
[08:12] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: and close synaptic if its open
[08:13] <kiranp1987> xev:  unable to open display ':0.0'
[08:13] <amicrawler> it is not open using the cmd line
[08:13] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: are you using sudo?
[08:13] <amicrawler> yes
[08:13] <amicrawler> sudo  all ways   sudo is my buddie
[08:13] <poningru> hmm weird
[08:13] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: and you still have that error?
[08:13] <amicrawler> yes
[08:14] <poningru> amicrawler: make sure you dont have synaptic or automatix or easyubuntu or add/remove open
[08:15] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: what he said ^ :)
[08:15] <amicrawler> nope nothing runnig in top

[08:16] <wubrgamer> how do i install a font ?
[08:16] <NickGarvey> wubrgamer: hello :)
[08:16] <amicrawler> nope

[08:17] <Shinzetsu> Flannel: okay
[08:17] <amicrawler> Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied
[08:17] <amicrawler> same thing for nvidia drivers
[08:18] <Lilandra> I have another question, when i install wpasupplicant, shouldn't /etc/init.d/wpasupplicant be created?
[08:18] <LJHarb> ami, are you sudod as su?
[08:18] <Flannel> amicrawler: Do you have synaptic/some other package manager open?
[08:18] <Lilandra> and /etc/default/wpasupplicant?
[08:18] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: something has it open, could you pastebin "ps ax" for me?
[08:18] <amicrawler> Couldn't find package nvidia
[08:19] <amicrawler> paste bin .org right
[08:19] <NickGarvey> !pastebin
[08:19] <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)
[08:21] <amicrawler> ok in paste bin
[08:21] <Flannel> amicrawler: you need to get the url and paste it back here ;)
[08:22] <sniff_> anybody have wireless driver cnusb-611 for linux?
[08:22] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: link please?
[08:22] <amicrawler> t http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:22] <NickGarvey> heh I got it
[08:23] <amicrawler> see not a thing
[08:23] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: theres more to it then that, thats not all of ps ax
[08:23] <NickGarvey> amicrawler: please use ps ax, not top
[08:23] <loopout> Hey guys, I can't seem to get java run time to work on  firefox
[08:23] <LJHarb> ok can myself and another user on a diff account share the same screen?
[08:23] <sniff_> anybody have wireless driver cnusb-611 for linux?
[08:23] <hawkaloogie> LJHarb, there is "Run as different user"
[08:23] <NickGarvey> !java > loopout
[08:24] <snoops> is there a way to configure wine so when applications are opened in it, they don't have that terrible dark gray for the window system colour?
[08:24] <amicrawler> ok there you go
[08:24] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: use "su user" to change to another user in the terminal
[08:24] <Talisker[w] > Where is the session init script?
[08:24] <pinky> What do I do with MDF files?  It won't mount... how do I mount it?  or change it inot an ISO?
[08:24] <Talisker[w] > I have a few lines I'd like shoved down there
[08:24] <hawkaloogie> NickGarvey, but this is ubuntu? sudo su user
[08:24] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: like "su john" would change that session into john
[08:24] <NickGarvey> hawkaloogie: I don't think it metters
[08:24] <NickGarvey> matters*
[08:24] <LJHarb> then after that, attach the screen?
[08:24] <loopout> thanks Nick
[08:25] <amicrawler> see not a thing
[08:25] <LJHarb> im trying to walk other users thru some basic linux stuff.
[08:25] <Talisker[w] > could anyone just drop a name for a script which is being executed every time you log into your user?
[08:25] <LJHarb> .bashrc ?
[08:25] <NickGarvey> kdesu -u root -c adept '-icon' 'adept' '-miniicon' 'a 7110 pts/3
[08:25] <NickGarvey> ..
[08:25] <hawkaloogie> Talisker[w] , what are you trying to accomplish?
[08:25] <NickGarvey> that was it.
[08:26] <cdew4545> is there a way to install ubuntu from booting without having to load all the live cd stuff first??  i ask because i want to install on an older machine and it doesnt respond to double clicks very well and other functionality
[08:26] <NickGarvey> cdew4545: you can download an "alternate cd" which I think is what you want
[08:26] <Talisker[w] > hawk, I'm trying to customize my user
[08:27] <cdew4545> NickGarvey:  thanks
[08:27] <Talisker[w] > .bashrc thanks
[08:27] <Talisker[w] > .xinit didn't work
[08:27] <hawkaloogie> Talisker[w] , System > Preferences > Sessions
[08:27] <Talisker[w] > hawkaloogie, no thanks
[08:27] <Talisker[w] > that would require switching back to gnome
[08:27] <NickGarvey> \\\\\\\\\\
[08:27] <NickGarvey> (sorry, cat)
[08:29] <LJHarb> nick: how do i set the user's screen password, so i dont need to know their unix password?
[08:29] <LJHarb> and how do i set my own screen password?
[08:30] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: man passwd
[08:30] <dibblego> how do you burn a CD from the command line?
[08:30] <LJHarb> lol rtfm, gotcha
[08:31] <pinky> Is there no package to mount/convert MDF/MDS image files?
[08:31] <OsirisX11> Gnome Panel/Window List Question: Why is it sometimes the panel buttons on the window list on the bottom are fully exapanded, other times they are crunched next to each other, even when there is plenty of space? How can I tell it to use all the space it can so it cuts off as little text as possible?
[08:31] <NickGarvey> dibblego: do you mean an iso?
[08:31] <h6w> pinky: I've never even heard of them.  What application creates them?
[08:31] <thoreauputic> $ apt-cache search mdf image
[08:31] <thoreauputic> mdf2iso - A simple utility to convert mdf to iso / cue / toc images
[08:31] <dibblego> NickaNicka, not necessarily; a bunch of files for example
[08:32] <snoops> h6w alcohol 120%
[08:32] <pinky> h6w: Alcohol 120% I believe
[08:32] <snoops> and yes there is a way to do it pinky
[08:32] <snoops> just a sec and let me get the link
[08:32] <pinky> snoops: Yay!
[08:32] <thoreauputic> pinky: see above
[08:32] <thoreauputic> pinky: mdf2iso
[08:33] <NickGarvey> dibblego: not sure, I know how to do isos though
[08:33] <LJHarb> nick, there was nothing about a screen password in man passwd
[08:33] <snoops> http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Mounting_Iso_Files for mdf you can do mount image.mdf /wheretomount -o loop=/dev/loop0
[08:33] <snoops> you can use mdf2iso if you want to convert it.. but why convert if you can just mount is easily
[08:33] <thoreauputic> true
[08:33] <rob_p> LJHarb:  Are you specifically referring to screen?  If so, there is an option for establishing password protected screen sessions using, 'acladd.'  "man screen" has tons of info... perhaps too much :-)
[08:34] <LJHarb> yes
[08:34] <LJHarb> lol k
[08:34] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: what do you mean "screen passwaord"
[08:34] <LJHarb> can it be summarized?
[08:34] <NickGarvey> okie
[08:34] <LJHarb> ok to rephrase, i want a way to share a screen with another user so that they can watch me perform tasks, without knowing their unix password
[08:35] <rob_p> LJHarb:  I use screen on my headless server but I never bother with password protecting the detached screens simply because I'm the only one that logs into the server.
[08:35] <LJHarb> hm
[08:35] <pinky> snoops: That method of mounting didn't work for me.
[08:35] <LJHarb> rob: how can i connect to a detached screen of a diff user tho?
[08:35] <rob_p> LJHarb:  One sec...
[08:35] <LJHarb> thanks
[08:36] <rob_p> LJHarb:  screen -r sessionowner/[[pid.] tty[.host] ] 
[08:36] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: be sure to type out the entire name, rob- is a different user
[08:36] <NickGarvey> LJHarb: (I put the - so he wouldn't get a beep)
[08:36] <NickGarvey> but he might have anyway
[08:36] <LJHarb> nick, thanks
[08:36] <LJHarb> rob_p: lemme try that
[08:37] <rob_p> LJHarb:  So is suppose that, 'screen -r <username>' should re-attach to the default screen initiated by that user.
[08:37] <LJHarb> hm k
[08:37] <rob_p> LJHarb:  I meant, "So I suppose..." but you get the picture  :-)
[08:38] <rob_p> LJHarb:  Very late... very tired!
[08:38] <OsirisX11> Gnome Panel/Window List Question: Why is it sometimes the panel buttons on the window list on the bottom are fully exapanded, other times they are crunched next to each other, even when there is plenty of space? How can I tell it to use all the space it can so it cuts off as little text as possible?
[08:39] <snoops> pinky what are you typing and what errror?
[08:39] <rob_p> LJHarb:  If the user has more than one screen detached, then I believe it will re-attach to the first one.  If you want a specific one, you'd need to specify the tty, I think.
[08:39] <pinky> snoops: # mount YDKJ4.mdf /mnt/iso/ -o loop=/dev/loop0
[08:39] <pinky> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[08:39] <LJHarb> rob_p: i think its working... but the other user had to explicitly give me privs to do it, turning on multiuser mode or something
[08:39] <pinky> I tried -t iso9660 AND -t udf
[08:39] <sniff_> anybody have wireless driver cnusb-611 for linux?
[08:40] <pinky> Neither worked
[08:40] <rob_p> LJHarb:  Hmm, well, like I said,  I haven't done much in the way of multi-user screen sessions, etc.
[08:40] <LJHarb> thanks :-)
[08:40] <pinky> The plot thickens: # mdf2iso YDKJ4.mdf
[08:40] <pinky> Unknown format for YDKJ4.mdf.
[08:40] <rob_p> LJHarb:  welcome
[08:40] <rob_p> :-)
[08:40] <snoops> hmm in ubuntu forums etc people say you can just do mount imagename.mdf /directory/name -o loop
[08:41] <thoreauputic> pinky: if you covert to iso that error will go away :)
[08:41] <thoreauputic> *convert
[08:41] <Lilandra> bye
[08:41] <pinky> thoreauputic: But didn't you see?  I tried to convert...
[08:41] <snoops> is it possible that mdf is corrupt?
[08:41] <thoreauputic> pinky: you used mdf2iso ? No I must have missed that
[08:42] <snoops> mdf2iso apparently has big issues with large mdf files
[08:42] <pinky> snoops: Yeah, probably, got it off Bit Torrent. I own the game, (so it's legal for me to dl), but the discs are too scratched.
[08:42] <pinky> It's not large, and that's what scares me.  It's a 2CD game, yet the torrent only had 1 MDF file that was ~250MB
[08:43] <pinky> bah
[08:43] <snoops> that sounds very dodgy to me
[08:43] <snoops> mdf's tend to me the full cd size +
[08:44] <snoops> which game?
[08:44] <thoreauputic> probably a bad file. What does " file nameof file.mdf" say?
[08:44] <ymlu> mdf isn't corrupt, use winiso under wine
[08:44] <thoreauputic> umm drop the space in that...
[08:44] <snoops> I wonder if you could use alcohol 120% under wine
[08:45] <[b] urk> isn't there some linux program that lets you mount those files?
[08:45] <ymlu> convert mdf > .iso but it work well only under wine
[08:47] <PhilsenAsk> Hellox
[08:47] <snoops> maybe it's wanting the mds which also should have been created with the file
[08:47] <PhilsenAsk> hello, i hava a problem with Knoppix
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> this is the ubuntu support channel PhilsenAsk, try #knoppix
[08:48] <PhilsenAsk> yes i know
[08:48] <PhilsenAsk> but i need help
[08:48] <PhilsenAsk> please help me
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:48] <PhilsenAsk> thanks!
[08:48] <ompaul> fyrestrtr, or ##anything
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> hey ompaul :)
[08:49] <ompaul> if it is not ubuntu based :)
[08:49] <Shinzetsu> can I pgup in a console?
[08:49] <cafuego> PhilsenAsk: We can't help you, as we don't use the same software you do.
[08:49] <Flannel> Shinzetsu: shift-pageup
[08:49] <ompaul> morninks fyrestrtr
[08:49] <Shinzetsu> Flannel: cheers
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> morninks indeed.
[08:49] <cafuego> Shinzetsu: Note that will not work after you've switched terminals.
[08:50] <fyrestrtr> or if you have framebuffer
[08:50] <fyrestrtr> well, it won't go as far up
[08:50] <[b] urk> pinky, http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion
[08:51] <PhilsenAsk> i use kubuntu but i musst work in my job with knoppix at the moment
[08:51] <Flannel> PhilsenAsk: right, but we can help really well with ubuntu, but none of us necessarily use knoppix, #knoppix however, is full of people knowledgable in knoppix
[08:51] <ompaul> he's gone to that place
[08:53] <rob_p> g'nite all...
[09:01] <ubuntu__> are there any firewalls included in ubuntu
[09:01] <nikon> Hi, has anyone come across synaptic only loading into memory and not running properly?
[09:01] <geniusdot> who can tell me why ubuntu run in my lap-top so slow(hp nx6125 sempron3100+)
[09:02] <nikon> coz its an amd :P lol
[09:02] <ucordes> feck pentium
[09:02] <ucordes> lol
[09:02] <Flannel> !tell ubuntu__ about firestarter
[09:02] <nikon> pfft x86 owns u
[09:03] <ompaul> ubuntu__, firestarter, and you don't need it unless you start services and want to configure a firewall around them - i.e. this is not the same as a very vunerable piece of software
[09:03] <nikon> so has anyone had synaptic just die on them in dapper
[09:03] <nikon> loads into memory and thats it
[09:03] <nikon> cleared my apt cache
[09:03] <[b] urk> use aptitude instead
[09:04] <nikon> ok
[09:04] <nikon> but i wana use synaptic
[09:04] <shay> hi
[09:04] <ompaul> nikon, never had that happen, before you do anything else do this on in a terminal, sudo apt-get update then try synaptic
[09:04] <ucordes> it is just because you are working with a pentium+
[09:04] <[b] urk> aptitude is better, it is kinder to your package database
[09:04] <nikon> yer
[09:05] <nikon> i did that ompaul and now im doing the upgrade
[09:05] <nikon> of patches etc
[09:05] <nikon> see what happens
[09:05] <nikon> is aptitude better?
[09:05] <[b] urk> have you tried starting it from terminal to see if there are any error messages?
[09:05] <shay> whois somegeek_
[09:05] <shay> woops
[09:05] <nikon> no [b] urk i will try that
[09:06] <[b] urk> sudo synaptic
[09:06] <nikon> yeah im not that n00b
[09:06] <Flannel> gksudo
[09:06] <ompaul> nikon, please do not use the word n00b it is not very inclusive there was a day when you did not know what you know now :)
[09:07] <nikon> lol nps
[09:08] <nikon> thanks ompaul and [b] urk
[09:08] <ompaul> nikon, it is back to where you want?
[09:08] <[b] urk> did it work?
[09:08] <nikon> still doin updates
[09:09] <nikon> will let u know
[09:09] <ompaul> nikon, that is good
[09:09] <rast4> ok who's a Samba guru :( I can't get it to work and I've read step-by-steps, docs, manuals, etc
[09:09] <rast4> still a no go
[09:09] <ompaul> !samba > rast4
[09:09] <rast4> I have that link
[09:09] <nikon> places > connect to server
[09:09] <rast4> that's what I was referring to
[09:09] <ompaul> well I got a config file to work from there for me
[09:10] <ompaul> I just copied it and did not care after that
[09:10] <rast4> I appreciate that though, but I can't get it to work after reading the latter link
[09:10] <KenSentMe> rast4: what does not work?
[09:10] <noiesmo> rast4, could it be firewall
[09:10] <Ackeubu_> hey, when i boot up ubuntu it defaults on a viewer on F8, where there are no loggin window, I have to do ctrl+alt+F7 to get to the loggin window. Can I change this somehow so I get to F7 by default?
[09:10] <rast4> well I edited the inetd.conf
[09:10] <rast4> it's set to port 901 for Swat
[09:11] <rast4> I edited samba.conf, set (what I think is right) the options it needs
[09:11] <rast4> still can't use Swat
[09:11] <rast4> which i want to use because it will make this a whole lot easier
[09:11] <LJHarb> how do i edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf to force the server to always grab a specific ip from the router?
[09:11] <rast4> I downloaded both with Synaptic
[09:11] <KenSentMe> rast4: i've read that swat needs a lot of config, but first you need samba to work properly
[09:11] <rast4> so it shows both are installed
[09:11] <shriphani> guys i got a sound problem
[09:11] <rast4> I'm unsure if it is working properly at this point
[09:11] <rast4> :(
[09:12] <noiesmo> rast4, do you have ports 137-139 and 445 open
[09:12] <KenSentMe> rast4: can you connect to it from another computer?
[09:12] <shriphani> my xmms and everything else work but skype says problem with sound device
[09:12] <rast4> I have windows boxes all around me and this ubuntu laptop, I'm also installing ubuntu on another laptop as we speak
[09:12] <rast4> so I have no linux box to play with in order to connect to see if it's working
[09:12] <rast4> I have the firewall that is with ubuntu
[09:13] <Ackeubu_> how do I run the app that allows me to change keyboard language from the keyboard?
[09:13] <marshall_> hey guys
[09:13] <rast4> is there a chance I need to manually open the netbios ports?
[09:13] <marshall_> does anybody know a good webcam app?
[09:13] <noiesmo> rast4, you could install firestarter and then set up your firewall for smb
[09:13] <LJHarb> netbios isnt routable rast4
[09:13] <IRCMonkeyX> hi, could someone describe me simply what ip masqerade is,  i read some articles, but i cant get the point exactly
[09:13] <marshall_> id like to record a video
[09:13] <rast4> that is what I have noiesmo
[09:13] <LJHarb> you can open any ports you want, netbios will never go thru a router
[09:13] <KenSentMe> rast4: first try to connect from the windows machines
[09:13] <noiesmo> rast4 ok
[09:14] <rast4> it doesn't find it in workgroup
[09:14] <rast4> the ubuntu box
[09:14] <kleedrac> I'm trying to get suspend2 working from the instructions http://dagobah.ucc.asn.au/dapper-kernels/ but it doesn't say how to add the resume2 part to the grub menu.lst and the new kernel doesn't support my wifi card, can anyone help with this?
[09:14] <rast4> and on a manual connect either
[09:14] <KenSentMe> rast4: have you set the same workgroup as the windows machines
[09:14] <LJHarb> can anyone help with dhcp?
[09:14] <shriphani> guys can anyone help me ?

[09:16] <rast4> ok I got an OK on Samba start
[09:16] <KenSentMe> rast4: now try one of your windows pc's
[09:16] <rast4> ok here goes
[09:17] <rast4> I forgot what I named this computer now
[09:17] <rast4> is there a way to determine what I named it
[09:17] <rast4> because it *might* be showing up in the workgroup, but no access
[09:17] <rast4> that would be progress IMO
[09:17] <KenSentMe> rast4: type hostname
[09:18] <rast4> sweet
[09:18] <rast4> ok I can see it
[09:18] <rast4> from a windows machine in my workgroup
[09:18] <rast4> but access denied
[09:18] <KenSentMe> rast4: nice, that means samba is running and working in some way
[09:18] <rast4> that's progress! woot!
[09:18] <rast4> now what though :(
[09:18] <noiesmo> rast4, you need a smbuser and a smbpasswd
[09:19] <rast4> isn't that with smbpasswd -a <username>
[09:19] <marshall_> does anybody know a good webcam app?
[09:19] <noiesmo> Raskall,  smbpasswd
[09:19] <KenSentMe> noiesmo: hey, i was typing that ;)
[09:19] <marshall_> id like to record a video
[09:19] <noiesmo> KenSentMe, too slow ;)
[09:19] <rast4> hehe
[09:19] <KenSentMe> noiesmo: i know
[09:19] <noiesmo> hehe
[09:19] <rast4> you both are mad helpful, regardless ;
[09:19] <rast4> )
[09:20] <rast4> so smbpasswd -a username?
[09:20] <KenSentMe> marshall_: check here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[09:20] <marshall_> KenSentMe:  ok
[09:20] <noiesmo> smbpasswd -a -U username -p
[09:20] <KenSentMe> rast4: i think with windows clients it's best to have the same username and password as the windows user that is connecting
[09:20] <rast4> that's what I was just typing, if i should keep them the same
[09:21] <rast4> seems I'm too slow too ;)
[09:21] <rast4> to*
[09:21] <KenSentMe> rast4: it's too
[09:21] <noiesmo> KenSentMe, rast4 doesnt really matter windows you can store username and password on first connect
[09:22] <KenSentMe> rast4: but i remember that that doesn't work all the time. I had problems with connect windows users and i only managed to get it running by using the exact user and pass
[09:22] <rast4> it's also 3:20am, so forgive my grammatical errors
[09:22] <rast4> well let me try to keep it simple and try the same user and pass as the windows network
[09:23] <KenSentMe> noiesmo: that was a reaction for you btw
[09:23] <rast4> ok on that command, it gave me the options list
[09:23] <noiesmo> rast4 smbpassswd -a -U testuser
[09:23] <rast4> so one of those flags are wrong
[09:23] <rast4> ok
[09:23] <rast4> yeah the -p wasn't happy
[09:23] <noiesmo> rast4, no soz about that
[09:24] <rast4> not a problem at all
[09:24] <Hadrion> who wants to help the n00b? ;)
[09:24] <rast4> I'm just grateful for the help
[09:24] <noiesmo> if you add -p it needs the password instead of prompt
[09:24] <VisezTrance> i need to run two commands during boot (alsactl restore and another line to mount a smb share), where do i put the lines? i'dd put them in /etc/init.d/rc.local but i see the file has a script inside. i knew it should be blank.. ?
[09:24] <noiesmo> VisezTrance, rc.local
[09:24] <KenSentMe> Hadrion: just ask your question
[09:24] <rast4> I need to sudo su to do this?
[09:24] <noiesmo> rast4, yes
[09:24] <rast4> k
[09:24] <KenSentMe> rast4: use sudo smbpasswd etc.
[09:24] <VisezTrance> oky i'll put them at the end of the script then
[09:24] <Hadrion> anyone available to help me get ubuntu running like I'd like it to? I got my NTFS partitions working, but I'm curious about multiple-monitor/display adaptor stuff
[09:25] <noiesmo> yes VisezTrance
[09:25] <VisezTrance> danke
[09:25] <rast4> ok so now that I've created it, I should be able to use those credentials from the windos machine to connect to this laptop right?
[09:26] <rast4> windows*
[09:26] <noiesmo> yep
[09:26] <rast4> ok here goes
[09:26] <KenSentMe> rast4: first maybe you should restart samba 'sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart'
[09:26] <rast4> not even a credential box for user/pass
[09:26] <rast4> good thinkiong
[09:26] <rast4> thinking*
[09:27] <rast4> got two ok's
[09:27] <shriphani> guys i need assistance
[09:27] <noiesmo> rast4, you will need to make sure you set permissions for the user so they can read/write etc
[09:27] <noiesmo> check smb.conf for example
[09:27] <rast4> don't think I did, it says "network path not found"
[09:27] <Hadrion> is multi-monitor/displa adaptor stuff ven possible?
[09:27] <KenSentMe> shriphani: just ask your question
[09:27] <rast4> so it's not letting me on, but it's showing in the workgroup
[09:27] <rast4> still
[09:28] <KenSentMe> Hadrion: i think it is, i'm looking for a wiki page on the subject
[09:28] <shriphani> KenSentMe, sound related problems
[09:28] <Hadrion> thanks Ken
[09:28] <shriphani> nothing works

[09:29] <Ackeubu_> hey, when i boot up ubuntu it defaults on a viewer on F8, where there are no loggin window, I have to do ctrl+alt+F7 to get to the loggin window. Can I change this somehow so I get to F7 by default?

[09:29] <rast4> can you hang on one sec
[09:29] <rast4> im in BX
[09:29] <rast4> let me come in a windows machine so you can paste it to me in query
[09:30] <dagers> hi, how can I reset password (or do own) in PostgreSQL? I'm do sudo: su postgres -c psql template1

[09:30] <vexer> hi
[09:30] <shriphani> KenSentMe, can you help me ?
[09:31] <KenSentMe> shriphani: no, sorry. I don't know much about sound problems
[09:31] <TheoMurpse> I have an Averatec laptop with a Broadcom wireless chip on the mobo. When I boot up off the LiveCD I have no connectivity, and when I go to Networking in the Ubuntu Gnome menu and enable it (interface ra0), my computer freezes hard. Also, if I sudo and ifconfig ra0 up, the same thing happens. I have to do a complete reboot by holding down the power button to get unfrozen. How can I fix this problem? I have no other way of using the internet except
[09:31] <TheoMurpse> for wireless. This works in Gentoo (my current OS) and Windows XP, so it's not a hardware issue.
[09:31] <TheoMurpse> I'm using v 6.06
[09:31] <rast4_> so is the folder [MUSIC]  local or a network drive?
[09:31] <rast4_> in that example
[09:31] <shriphani> aww ummm
[09:32] <shriphani> VisezTrance, !!!
[09:32] <noiesmo> rast4, thats from smb.conf its a network share on debian box
[09:32] <shriphani> help !!
[09:32] <VisezTrance> hello shriphani
[09:32] <shriphani> i got sound problems
[09:32] <VisezTrance> small world
[09:32] <rast4_> so in essence, it should work the same on a windows folder?
[09:32] <KenSentMe> Hadrion: check here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[09:33] <shriphani> VisezTrance, can you help ?
[09:33] <VisezTrance> i too had sound problems, had to recompile alsa, sounds working cool, but i have run alsactl restore each time. i guess i have to create a asound.rc file..
[09:33] <noiesmo> rast4, have debianbox running samba it has a folder called NEW_MP3 it is browsable and only mnm and anita can write music to it anita uses windows
[09:33] <shriphani> recompile alsa as in ?
[09:34] <shriphani> kick it off and put it back on ?
[09:34] <rast4_> gotcha
[09:34] <rast4_> let me play with the smb.conf and see what I come up with. I appreciate the help form you and Kent. I'll hang out and toss a question if I get in a jam.
[09:34] <VisezTrance> as in recompile alsa.. downloaded gcc, kernel headers and the alsa source and follow the instructions from alsa-projects for my sound card
[09:35] <rast4_> KenSent rather, not Kent* soz
[09:35] <shriphani> VisezTrance, how can i kick alsa off ?
[09:35] <noiesmo> rast4, hers extra only mnm can browse and only mnm can write http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20740
[09:35] <VisezTrance> what sound problem are you experiencing ? you should reinstall alsa only as a last resort
[09:35] <jan_> hi, i have downloaded the new ubuntu image, which program (breezy?) can i use to burn it so it is installable? thanks
[09:36] <shriphani> VisezTrance, nothing sound related works
[09:36] <shriphani> xmms, skype nothing
[09:36] <shriphani> skype says problem with sound device
[09:36] <rast4_> are those just extra parameters? In the first example, those weren't passed to it, does it need explicit parameters like in the second example?
[09:36] <noiesmo> shriphani, was it working did it stop after upgrade
[09:36] <shriphani> noiesmo, it was working
[09:37] <noiesmo> shriphani, did it stop after upgrade
[09:37] <shriphani> and after a song it stopped
[09:37] <shriphani> nupe not afterpgrade

[09:55] <HeXiOn> hello. Is there a way to change the scroll speed of the mouse? (xbindkeys doen't work for that, I have configured all other buttons)
[09:56] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: To the best of my knowledge, the ralink driver won't work with broadcom chips.
[09:56] <rast4> I'm a damn genius!
[09:57] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: What does 'lspci' have to say about your wifi card?
[09:57] <rast4> to get swat to work, you have to log in with a root password, so I had to do a sudo passwd
[09:57] <rast4> skibbity boo!
[09:57] <cafuego> Well, fine then :-P
[09:57] <FirstStrike> hey guys
[09:58] <harry> how do i print a sheet at office calc? i have many sheets but everytime i click the print. it prints all the sheets
[09:58] <FirstStrike> i'm having some uh..issues with mounting my windows drive. i've tried everything i can think of to no avail.
[09:59] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, what sort of partition?
[09:59] <FirstStrike> ntfs. two drives (one ubuntu, one windows xp)
[10:00] <FirstStrike> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=237311  <- see there for everything i've tried so far.
[10:00] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, what have you tried?
[10:00] <Kamping_Kaiser> oh, loading :)
[10:00] <TheoMurpse> cafuego I meant to say that I have a ralink card, not broadcom. Wrong computer. ralink 2500 802.11b cardbus reference card rev 01 is what lspci says.
[10:00] <FirstStrike> this is my last resort..i've google searched, read how-to's and looked everywhere.
[10:00] <FirstStrike> first time i've had an issue with mounting.
[10:01] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, are you sure the partitions healthy? (can you boot windows?)
[10:01] <harry> FirstStrike: what. do you want to mount your windows partition NTFS to ubuntu. ???
[10:01] <FirstStrike> yes, i can boot into windows.
[10:01] <FirstStrike> harry: uh yes
[10:01] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: Ah ok... can't help you with one of those. Did you check the wiki?
[10:02] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, try: /dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs umask=0222 0 0
[10:02] <Kamping_Kaiser> and `mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda1 /media/windows`
[10:02] <harry> FirstStrike: i forgot how to. someone just helped me. they gave me a command to download and install the script from terminal. and then you mount your windows partition
[10:03] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, sorry, that should have been `sudo mount`
[10:03] <TheoMurpse> cafuego: There is no wiki page for Ralink drivers. I checked. I just get a page saying that it doesn't exist, even when I follow links to the supposed page from within the Wiki elsewhere.
[10:03] <Brokenstein> hi
[10:03] <Kamping_Kaiser> hi
[10:03] <harry> FirstStrike: before the sudo mount works. you have to install some sort of script.
[10:03] <TheoMurpse> It seems that no one else has a solution on the forums, either. Lots of Averatec users having that problem, and the only solution has been to get stuff off the internet with apt-get, but as I said earlier, this is the only method of connectivity I have (wireless), and it doesn't work.
[10:03] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: Well, I know for a fact there are ralink drivers in the dapper kernel... hmmm.
[10:03] <Kamping_Kaiser> harry, no, you dont
[10:04] <TheoMurpse> cafuego: yes, and the drivers even load. It's just when I try to enable my interface, freezes.
[10:04] <Kamping_Kaiser> cafuego, they are too unstable for my card to work
[10:04] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: is ndiswrapper loaded at all?
[10:04] <Kamping_Kaiser> i need a -17 kernel to work
[10:04] <TheoMurpse> lsmod lists ra0
[10:04] <Madpilot> Has anyone ever had gmail insisting that "Your browser's cookie functionality is turned off." when you *know* you're accepting cookies?
[10:04] <cafuego> Kamping_Kaiser: dunno... mrvk8 sure it, as I found out today :-/
[10:04] <Brokenstein> i want to change from 386 to 686 kernel can anyone point me in the right direction?
[10:04] <TheoMurpse> i mean, lsmod lists the rt2x00 driver or the 2500 driver, both work.
[10:04] <FirstStrike> i compiled 2.6.17-7 earlier this afternoon..it's working ok so far
[10:05] <harry> Kamping_Kaiser: i dont get it. trying to mount ntfs without installing something. ask Seveas. i think he's the who helped me with it
[10:05] <TheoMurpse> cafuego: ndiswrapper I don't even think comes on dapper. I tried to find it earlier to use it, but couldn't.
[10:05] <Kamping_Kaiser> Brokenstein, install 'linux-image-686', or 'linux-686' if you want binary drivers
[10:05] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: You'd need to install ndiswrapper-utils perhaps, the kernel does come with inbuilt support for it.
[10:05] <TheoMurpse> cafuego: lsmod | grep ndis lists nothing.
[10:05] <cafuego> ok
[10:05] <TheoMurpse> cafuego: how would I install ndiswrapper-utils without a network connection?
[10:05] <harry> FirstStrike: have you mounted it already?
[10:05] <Kamping_Kaiser> harry, there is an auto setup script, its not required
[10:05] <harry> Kampig_Kaiser: on dapper??
[10:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> harry, iirc the bot has a link
[10:06] <FirstStrike> mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda1 /media/window
[10:06] <FirstStrike> er
[10:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> if you want ntfs-g3 its a bit different
[10:06] <FirstStrike> mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /media/windows busy
[10:06] <FirstStrike> no matter what i do it spits that back out at me
[10:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, hm. so 'mount' says what? can you pastebin for me?
[10:06] <cafuego> TheoMurpse: Fetch the package (and windows driver) from another OS.
[10:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> er, FirstStrike , hda1 is your /
[10:06] <harry> Kamping_Kaiser: see
[10:07] <FirstStrike> /dev/hdb1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:07] <FirstStrike> proc on /proc type proc (rw)
[10:07] <FirstStrike> varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw)

[10:07] <FirstStrike> devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
[10:07] <Kamping_Kaiser> sure you dont mean hdb1?
[10:07] <Kamping_Kaiser> wt?
[10:07] <FirstStrike> positive
[10:07] <Kamping_Kaiser> ok
[10:07] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, did you run mount with sudo?
[10:08] <TheoMurpse> This is not a good start. I was switching from Gentoo to Ubuntu, because Ubuntu supposedly "just works", and it fails worse than Gentoo did for me a couple years ago when I installed it. Thanks for the help, I'll just use ndiswrapper then.
[10:08] <harry> FirstStrike: have you mounted it ?
[10:08] <FirstStrike> sudo mount
[10:08] <FirstStrike> /dev/hdb1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[10:08] <FirstStrike> proc on /proc type proc (rw)
[10:08] <FirstStrike> varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw)
[10:08] <FirstStrike> udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
[10:08] <FirstStrike> devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
[10:08] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, when you paste can you put it in pastebin.ca, and give us a link? it leaves less pasteing in the channel
[10:08] <nightstalker66> hello, can i ask an xubuntu question in here?
[10:09] <Awesome-o2000> is there a "development" branch of ubuntu?
[10:09] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, `sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/hda1 /media/windows`
[10:09] <FirstStrike> sorry, i don't really know about pastbin
[10:09] <Kamping_Kaiser> Awesome-o2000, yes
[10:09] <bimberi> ubotu tell nightstalker66 about edgy
[10:09] <Kamping_Kaiser> nightstalker66, yes, but #xubuntu would be better
[10:09] <Awesome-o2000> Kamping_Kaiser, what is it called and where can I find info on it?
[10:09] <bimberi> argh sorry
[10:09] <harry> give him a link
[10:09] <FirstStrike> same result Kamping_Kaiser
[10:09] <bimberi> ubotu tell Awesome-o2000 about edgy
[10:10] <FirstStrike> everything is /dev/hda1 already mounted or /media/windows busy
[10:10] <nightstalker66> i went to xubuntu room but no one responds
[10:10] <harry> FirstStrike: copy the whole error message then paste it to paste bin. to avoid flooding the message here
[10:10] <bimberi> nightstalker66: sorry, wrong nick above
[10:10] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, hm. can you run "lsof |grep windows" ?
[10:10] <Kamping_Kaiser> nightstalker66, you can try here, but you may or may not be lucky
[10:11] <nightstalker66> all i want to know is, i had read that xubuntu review on gotux.org, i was impressed, so i;m getting it, but i heard about something called easybuntu, can i use that on xubuntu?
[10:11] <Kamping_Kaiser> nightstalker66, yes, ask about it in #easyubuntu
[10:11] <FirstStrike> Kamping_Kaiser: done but what's this 'pastebin.ca'? i haven't heard of it before.
[10:11] <FirstStrike> separate channel?
[10:11] <nightstalker66> ok, sorry, didn't mean to break any rules, thank you
[10:12] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, go there, its a website, you paste text in and it gives you a link to give to other people
[10:12] <harry> does anyone here knows how to print only the wanted sheet on open office. spreadsheet.
[10:12] <Kamping_Kaiser> nightstalker66, NP.
[10:12] <nightstalker66> k bye
[10:12] <harry> whenever i click the print icon. it prints all the sheet.
[10:13] <LJHarb> ok i know this is prolly simple, but how do i copy the ubuntu install cd to the HD so i dont have to have it in the computer?
[10:13] <tengil> i have changed so i get all my kern.=debug into one file (i log my iptables dropped packages there) and the rest of the kern messages goes to kern.log. however when i type dmesg i get all the iptables msgs there and cant see the important info of dmesg. can anyone tell me how to fix that?
[10:14] <FirstStrike> arg
[10:14] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, you can just put the cd in the drive, and copy 'pool' to your hdd (crude method)
[10:14] <LJHarb> how do i access the cd?
[10:14] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, put it in the cd drive, it will autorun
[10:14] <FirstStrike> so, since i probably missed your response
[10:14] <FirstStrike> what's pastebin.ca?
[10:15] <Kamping_Kaiser> FirstStrike, go there, its a website, you paste text in and it gives you a link to give to other people
[10:15] <Kamping_Kaiser> !pastebin
[10:15] <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)
[10:15] <FirstStrike> ah
[10:15] <harry> does anyone here knows how to print only the wanted sheet on open office. spreadsheet.
[10:15] <harry> whenever i click the print icon. it prints all the sheet.
[10:15] <LJHarb> kamping_kaiser: nothings autorunning
[10:15] <slon`> not sure
[10:15] <LJHarb> im on commandline, not gui
[10:15] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, do you have a cd icon on the desktop?
[10:16] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, oh, right
[10:16] <Gothi[c] > I'm having problems with certain 3d applications not working correctly,... like blender looks all messed up when i box-select something (it's as if the buffer isn't being cleared or something) and I can't select any objects, even with a simple rightclick. Some other 3d applications have the same problem. (eg: mouse clicks not being detected) (note that these programs do work fine on my other machine) Could this be a graphics driver issue? ( i recently changed
[10:16] <Gothi[c] >  video cards ) Is it resolable? Has anyone encountered something like this before?
[10:16] <harry> hey does C&C generals will run swiftly with 64mb 3D accelerator. 512ddr ram and 1.6 ghz computer specs??
[10:16] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, then run `dd if=/dev/cdrom of=ubuntuLinux.iso`, and then mount that on loopback
[10:16] <FirstStrike> Kamping_Kaiser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20742
[10:16] <Kamping_Kaiser> Gothi[c] , what card did you change from -> to?
[10:17] <exs> Hello, Is there a faster way to run ubuntu in windows than using vmware?
[10:17] <Amaranth> harry: C&C Generals does not work on Ubuntu
[10:17] <LJHarb> kamping_kaiser: how do i mount on loopback?
[10:17] <Gothi[c] > Kamping_Kaiser:  I changed from my onboard intel i915 to a radeon X550
[10:17] <usuario> hello
[10:17] <usuario> speak spains???
[10:17] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, iirc `sudo mount -t iso -o loop ubuntuLinux.iso /mnt/`
[10:17] <Gothi[c] > i updated the xorg.conf and stuff, and direct rendering works, but i get lots of warnings about unknown device id and stuff
[10:17] <paradroid> Hi. I am looking for a software tool for (trans-)encoding  of audio-data in different formats, e. g. Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, (Lame) MP3.
[10:17] <Gothi[c] > and funky GL warnings
[10:17] <LJHarb> kamping_kaiser: and i just run that command whenever it wants the cd?
[10:18] <Kamping_Kaiser> Gothi[c] , you should download the ati drivers from apt.
[10:18] <due> paradroid: audacity is nice
[10:18] <LJHarb> usuario: que necesitas?
[10:18] <Gothi[c] > Kamping_Kaiser:  I did that before but then direct rendering just failed completely
[10:18] <bimberi> harry: Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org Calc - Print, check 'Print only selected sheets'
[10:18] <Gothi[c] > Kamping_Kaiser:  so i uninstalled them and went back to the old drivers
[10:18] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, half a minute please, i'll give proper directions
[10:18] <LJHarb> take your time, thanks

[10:19] <harry> Amaranth: even using CEdega. or crossover office?
[10:19] <hkBst> is there a way to prevent proprietary modules (which taint the kernel) from loading?
[10:19] <Kamping_Kaiser> Gothi[c] , install the new drivers, then run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg`
[10:19] <Gothi[c] > did that.
[10:19] <Amaranth> harry: I tried every trick I could find, wouldn't work.
[10:20] <paradroid> due: Well, it shouldn't be an editing software, rather a frontend for oggenc and the like. Batch processing would be very helpful.
[10:20] <Gothi[c] > i tried the xorg-driver-fglrx package which is supposed to work with my card i read somewhere, i did the dpkg-reconfigure and everything, after that failed, i tried editing xorg.conf manually, but no-go
[10:20] <harry> Amaranth: even using CEdega. or crossover office? really?
[10:20] <Amaranth> harry: Really.
[10:20] <due> paradroid: The no idea, sorry :) did you search packages.ubuntu.org?
[10:20] <harry> Amaranth: how about using the specs i posted on windows
[10:20] <Amaranth> *shrug*
[10:21] <FirstStrike> edgy is so broke right now.
[10:21] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, ok, all the steps you need are: `dd if=/dev/cdrom of=ubuntuLinuxCd.iso; sudo mv ubuntuLinuxCd.iso /home/; sudo mkdir /mnt/LoopbackCd; sudo mount  -t iso -o loop /home/UbuntuLinuxCd.iso /mnt/LoopbackCd;
[10:21] <FirstStrike> ):
[10:21] <paradroid> due: Well, I cam across http://www.eca.cx/ecasound/ which I compiled and will probably do what I am looking for. Unfortunately it's also a bit over-the-top for me.
[10:21] <Kamping_Kaiser> gl all
[10:21] <FirstStrike> cya
[10:22] <Gothi[c] > bye
[10:22] <paradroid> How does anyone here transcode e. g. Ogg Vorbis files into MP3 for their portable player?
[10:22] <Gothi[c] > damn ati crap, i should have gone with nvidia, but they didn't have any in stock
[10:22] <LJHarb> and kamping_kaiser, thats a permanent loopback mount?
[10:22] <FirstStrike> haven't had any problems with nvidia in the last 5 years
[10:22] <cuerpis> carmina y ven???
[10:22] <Kamping_Kaiser> LJHarb, no, this session (boot) only
[10:22] <Gothi[c] > yeah, my other box is nvidia,... works like a charm
[10:22] <Kamping_Kaiser> *gone*
[10:23] <carmenaguilera> hello boys
[10:23] <FirstStrike> now that AMD has merged with ATI perhaps their drivers will finally improve
[10:23] <harry> thanks bimberi
[10:23] <LJHarb> so kamping_kaiser, if i add it to .bashrc, ill always have the cd available?
[10:23] <Gothi[c] > that's good news, i didn't hear about that yet
[10:23] <FirstStrike> AMD bought them out
[10:23] <paradroid> FirstStrike: First statements of AMD don't sound too good...
[10:23] <FirstStrike> well, only the future can tell
[10:23] <carmenaguilera> hello
[10:23] <FirstStrike> i know they're doing away with the ATI name
[10:24] <hkBst> is there a way to prevent proprietary modules (which taint the kernel) from loading? I need to prevent ltmodem from loading.
[10:24] <yum> Hello all, if I start a program with sudo (sudo gedit) do I have root privileges the whole time the programm is open or is the time limited?
[10:24] <nahoj> do I have anything to win by compiling my own kernel?
[10:24] <FirstStrike> the whole time it's open
[10:24] <Gothi[c] > but damn,.. like just running glxgears pops up a whole screen of warnings
[10:24] <hkBst> nahoj: knowledge and speed :)
[10:24] <yum> thx, I read somewhere its only for 15 minutes
[10:24] <FirstStrike> i compiled 2.6.17-7 tonight..it's much faster than 2.6.15
[10:24] <nahoj> hkBst, by how much will the speed increase?
[10:25] <jing> i have a problem with /etc/sudoers, i want edit it, so i change the permission of this file to 750, and if i run sudo, i get  sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0750, should be 0440, how can solve it? thanks
[10:25] <aliasfred> yum, nope it is the whole time
[10:25] <FirstStrike> it boots about twice as fast
[10:25] <FirstStrike> and runs noticeably quicker
[10:25] <Gothi[c] > "Unknown device ID 5B63, please report. Assuming plain R300." <- that must be the problem, it's an X550, not an R300
[10:25] <nahoj> oh..
[10:25] <Locke> nope
[10:25] <thoreauputic> hkBst: put the modules in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist IIRC
[10:25] <carmenaguilera> hola soy de espaa
[10:25] <hkBst> nahoj:what FirstStrike said.
[10:25] <aliasfred> yum, the time limitation is likely about the kdesu/gnomesu caching it to avoid you retying it
[10:25] <cuerpis> y yo tambien!!!
[10:26] <LJHarb> !es
[10:26] <nahoj> but, I'm not that good with linux, is it very hard?
[10:26] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:26] <hkBst> thoreauputic: thanks. I'll check it out. What about when booting from livecd?
[10:26] <FirstStrike> there's a guide on the 2nd page of the how-to forum that walks you through getting adn compiling the kernel
[10:26] <FirstStrike> it's cake
[10:26] <FirstStrike> make sure you read though..there's a bit of into around page 11 that you will need otherwise it won't compile.
[10:26] <AAA> will you kick me plz
[10:26] <cuerpis> ah q rico
[10:27] <hkBst> nahoj: only the first time ;)
[10:27] <AAA> I am too drunk to use  linux
[10:27] <cuerpis> y la ultima
[10:27] <Gothi[c] > i guess i'm gonna go hunt the net a bit more to try and get that new ati driver to work :( there ain't much out there
[10:27] <thoreauputic> hkBst: you might want to look at gnewsense :) see http://www.gnewsense.org/
[10:27] <AAA>  chownn          -r
[10:27] <thoreauputic> hkBst: there's a toorent - it's an RMS friendly live CD :)
[10:28] <thoreauputic> umm s/toorent/torrent
[10:28] <nahoj> FirstStrike, are you talkning about this guide? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217657
[10:28] <FirstStrike> that's the one
[10:28] <carmenaguilera> holaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[10:29] <AAA> hola
[10:29] <RamiKassab> hey guys, I just installed apache2 using apt-get on my laptop here for local development. the default web directory is located at /var/www but I cannot create files in it because the folder is owned by root. Is it ok for me just make it writeable by all users so that I can make files in it through my user account or is there a better way of going about this? Thanks guys!
[10:29] <FirstStrike> it's pretty much just copy and paste into a terminal the whole time
[10:29] <AAA> wanna break yer box?
[10:29] <thoreauputic> hkBst: if you want a taint-free live CD that's the one - I'm seeding it with about 6 others
[10:29] <nahoj> FirstStrike, ok, chicking it out...
[10:29] <FirstStrike> if you follow that guide 100% it won't break your box
[10:29] <carmenaguilera> hola AAA
[10:29] <AAA> I can tell you hoow to break our ubuntu?
[10:30] <jenda> Could somebody recommend a way to play media from a "rtsp://" URL?
[10:30] <AAA> jenda  mplayer
[10:30] <FirstStrike> nahoj: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1308736&postcount=106 <- you'll need the info from this post too when you're editing the kernel settings
[10:30] <carmenaguilera> yes
[10:30] <jenda> AAA will try
[10:30] <cuerpis> dejala a la chavala
[10:30] <nahoj> FirstStrike, ahh.. wonderful!
[10:30] <RamiKassab> guys? any help?
[10:31] <AAA> plz don;t lisstenn to  me. beer is ecess
[10:31] <hkBst> thoreauputic: thanks, i'll certainly give it a try. What's the popular distro it's based on?
[10:31] <nahoj> FirstStrike, i guess i stick around here if I have any simple questions... =)
[10:31] <AAA> and I have stuck keyss
[10:31] <thoreauputic> hkBst: Ubuntu of course :)
[10:31] <FirstStrike> well, permissions are always an issue RamiKassab especially when dealing with the web.
[10:31] <thoreauputic> hkBst: it's actually Ubuntu without the restricted bits and including emacs ;-)
[10:32] <FirstStrike> but if you aren't going to publish anything with it and aren't too paranoid about permissions then that's fine.
[10:32] <thoreauputic> hkBst: I aaume emacs is to keep Richard happy ;-)
[10:32] <thoreauputic> *assume
[10:32] <AAA> jenda  mplayer  is the best over all media player for linuxx
[10:32] <FirstStrike> nahoj: sure thing.
[10:32] <slack^Jam> mplayer is the best for a variety of os's
[10:33] <RamiKassab> FirstStrike: well this installation is just for local development, I dont want to have to do my web work as root in order to write files to the www directory
[10:33] <FirstStrike> i like vlc too
[10:33] <slack^Jam> even amiga uses it
[10:33] <AAA> mmplayer uber alles
[10:33] <RamiKassab> FirstStrike: how can I make it so that I can modify the www folder using my own account?
[10:33] <nahoj> FirstStrike, I haven't got my sound to work before on this laptop, is there anything I can do about that while compiling the kernel?
[10:33] <Pensacola> vlc can play a lot of files too
[10:33] <FirstStrike> RamiKassab: use the chown command
[10:33] <AAA> two m's even
[10:33] <hkBst> thoreauputic: great 8^]  why the secrecy though? Also google and wikipedia don't know anything about it. How often does that happen!!!
[10:34] <thoreauputic> hkBst: ah, I asume that's you in the torrent now
[10:34] <slack^Jam> who uses a ub-64 version with an Ati gr.card?
[10:34] <jenda> AAA: agreed, and it worked.
[10:34] <thoreauputic> hkBst: heh - I only found out about it a few days ago
[10:34] <RamiKassab> FirstStrike: I understand that but is it ok for me just to make that folder writable by everyone?
[10:34] <hkBst> thoreauputic: yep :) going 350KB/s which is as much as my adsl can handle :)
[10:34] <thoreauputic> hkBst: it's veryu early days, that's all - please help with the seeding :)
[10:34] <slack^Jam> thaaanx
[10:34] <FirstStrike> RamiKassab: it won't hurt anything on the system, no.
[10:34] <AAA> jenda  w00
[10:34] <thoreauputic> hkBst: cool - most of that is coming from here then :)
[10:35] <maribel> bye boys
[10:35] <FirstStrike> nahoj: there's a lot of options you can edit while compiling a kernel. many related to sound.
[10:35] <jenda> AAA: thx for the tip ;)
[10:35] <FirstStrike> so you can try tweaking it.
[10:35] <RamiKassab> FirstStrike: ok... in ubuntu, the primary user, is he part of the same group as root?
[10:35] <thoreauputic> hkBst: ah , sorry - about a tenth from here - I misread :)
[10:35] <FirstStrike> no
[10:35] <AAA> jenda  don't mind me, I am blacked  out durnk :)
[10:35] <FirstStrike> the primary user in ubuntu is in its own group
[10:35] <FirstStrike> i.e. "Bob" is in group "Bob"
[10:35] <nahoj> FirstStrike, so the thing I can do is to "check" everything sound-related??
[10:36] <FirstStrike> no no
[10:36] <AAA> that is a debian policey
[10:36] <FirstStrike> for certain hardware you're going to need different configurations
[10:36] <hkBst> thoreauputic: seeding, sure. that just means leaving ktorrent open right?
[10:36] <jenda> AAA: Please offer more support in #ubuntu in such a state, it is a great contribution to the community ;) </ot>
[10:36] <thoreauputic> hkBst: yep
[10:36] <FirstStrike> unfortunetly, i'm not an expert at it. most of the default settings work perfect for me so i've had no issues.
[10:36] <nahoj> FirstStrike, hmm.. guess I will have to trust in google on this one
[10:36] <jan_> !partition
[10:36] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[10:36] <AAA> jenda  hehe, I have been here for a bit
[10:36] <FirstStrike> you'd need to talk to some one that has more experience compiling kernels for different hardware
[10:37] <RamiKassab> FirstStrike: ok so making the www folder writable by the group instead of everyone wont work then for the primary user
[10:37] <jenda> AAA, I know :) Seen you around.
[10:37] <FirstStrike> make sure you know what sound card you've got
[10:37] <hkBst> thoreauputic: let's write a wikipedia stub about it
[10:37] <FirstStrike> that's important if people are going to help you
[10:37] <FirstStrike> (i'm assuming it's some onboard type)
[10:37] <FirstStrike> RamiKassab: yes. Bob:Bob
[10:37] <nahoj> FirstStrike, yes, is there any thing i can write in terminal to find out exactly?
[10:37] <thoreauputic> hkBst: you might want to talk to ompaul in #ubuntu-ops - I don't know much about it yet
[10:38] <AAA> think abbout security when using chown/chgrp
[10:38] <hkBst> ompaul:do you know a lot about gnewsense?

[10:41] <AAA> fredrin  if you are running a server (which you don't need to do) then it should sync with a know nnnnn server
[10:41] <FirstStrike> try posting on the forum and see if you can get some help for that sound card
[10:41] <AAA> fredrin  no, just ntpdate 128.101.101.101 or what4evever
[10:41] <RamiKassab> hey guys where is the root account's .bashrc file?
[10:42] <wheelswitch> any one know of an ftp program with multi connections at once, that can be driven from the command line?
[10:42] <wheelswitch> im using lftp at the moment
[10:42] <fredrin> AAA: It does that, but if ntp-server is running, ntpdate wont run
[10:42] <wheelswitch> and need a feature like the mirror feature
[10:42] <AAA> RamiKassab  /root/.bashrc
[10:42] <AAA> fredrin  hrm. /etc/init.d/ntpdate restart

[10:47] <DARKGuy> Greetings, anybody knows why my Ubuntu doesn't recognize ~/.Xdefaults ? I placed some aterm settings there, and nothing seems changed. Do I have to restart X?
[10:48] <thoreauputic> DARKGuy: maybe try ~/.Xresources  ( I think that's the right filename)
[10:49] <mneptok> Launchpad is going down in 15 mins for its regular code update. Estimated downtime is under 10 minutes.

[10:49] <DARKGuy> nope thoreauputic, it's not working either :(
[10:49] <thoreauputic> mneptok: we wouldn't panic if it was 42 minutes ;)
[10:50] <linux_user400354> anyone using gaim? cat ~/.gaim/accounts.xml | grep password
[10:50] <ymlu> DARKGuy: me recognize .Xdefaults

[10:50] <thoreauputic> DARKGuy: hmm - I just dug that out of memory - I might have the filename wrong since I don't use those files
[10:51] <thoreauputic> mneptok: thanks for the clarification *G*

[10:51] <DARKGuy> ymlu: no idea why mine doesn't :( Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper here :/ - oh, kay thoreauputic =/
[10:51] <Wermut> What do I have to do to print dvi files from evince?
[10:51] <billfur> is dd if=/dev/sdb of=somefile and then dd if=somefile of=/dev/sdb the exact way to make a copy of a harddrive and then restore it?  (assuming you don't want to have to reinstall grub and have multiple partitions)
[10:52] <ymlu> DARKGuy: meybe permissions chmod u+r .Xdefaults?
[10:52] <ymlu> chown user .Xdef...
[10:52] <carmenaguilera> hello
[10:52] <DARKGuy> ymlu: tried that, and chmod 777 too, nothing :P
[10:52] <alexis_> hy everybody
[10:52] <DARKGuy> hi
[10:52] <mcphail> billfur: that will do it
[10:53] <carmenaguilera> hello alexis
[10:53] <Madpilot> hi carmenaguilera
[10:53] <ymlu> maybe syntax is wrong
[10:53] <carmenaguilera> hi madpilot
[10:54] <alexis_> does anyone got the postfix-ldap package to work?
[10:54] <DARKGuy> ymlu: as in, the file's contents? no way, I just got them from http://linuxreviews.org/software/x11-terms/aterm/
[10:54] <exs> Is vmware the quickest way to run ubuntu under windows?
[10:54] <maribel> hi madpilot, how are you, I like work
[10:55] <ompaul> !test
[10:55] <ubotu> Failed.
[10:55] <DARKGuy> VirtualPC too exs, qemu, boschs I think, too. Or you can just burn a LiveCD and play with that in the meanwhile
[10:55] <carmenaguilera> xao
[10:56] <jan_> hi, im installing the new ubuntu now, want to resize my partition to make /home an own partition. The mount manager names everything "sda", i thought it should be hda.... what is the difference here??

[10:56] <Juftus> Hey, folks. Is there a way to start applications so that they don't appear on taskbar? Would be nice with terminal, for example. I know of a package called devilspie, but any other way?
[10:56] <exs> DARKGuy,  booting from a liveCD would be a good option, but I am in work. What's the fastest between qemu and boschs?
[10:56] <Madpilot> jan_, your harddrive must be a SATA drive?
[10:57] <sbaird> in breezy badger what is ther a defalt firewall and if so what is it and how do i confugure it or disable it?
[10:58] <jan_> Madpilot, that could be
[10:58] <DARKGuy> exs: depends on your system, however, I've got better results with qemu, but you'll have to play around with kqemu (the accelerator thing) which installs as a "service" which you have to start using something like NET KQEMU START or something like that, and you'll get better speed. Boschs may be a tad slower, but it's just plain download, config, run
[10:58] <jan_> Madpilot, so now problem then?
[10:58] <DARKGuy> haven't used those in months though, that's all I remember :/
[10:58] <Madpilot> jan_, my only HDD is SATA, so my partitions are sda1 & sda2; the partitioner has never had a problem with it
[10:58] <FirstStrike> sbaird: as far as i know there's only plain iptables. i suggest using aptitude to install firestarter.
[10:59] <FirstStrike> it's got a gui which is easy enough to setup
[11:01] <jan_> Madpilot, ok thank.. however the partition manager in the installer is really bad i think.. cant rename my partitions, set flags or do nothing... what is wrong?
[11:02] <Madpilot> jan_, not sure, it worked for me, but I have a really, really simple setup - one drive, two partitions, no swap, nothing fancy
[11:03] <albacker> how can i convert swf to avi/mpg/ogg ?
[11:04] <jan_> Madpilot, thats what i need too, however i can only choose primary partitions in the meny.. cant make boot or nothing.. hmm
[11:04] <AAA> albacker  mencode will do that
[11:04] <albacker> AAA, how ?
[11:04] <AAA> albacker  mencoder
[11:04] <Madpilot> jan_, you should be able to, I think... although I don't even have a /boot, just / & /home
[11:04] <albacker> i mean i have file1.swf and need a file1.avi how to do that with mencoder ?
[11:04] <AAA> albacker  i don'tt have the exact cmd, but I kkknow iit will do it
[11:05] <albacker> k, thanks. im googling it.
[11:05] <AAA> albacker  you best bet :)
[11:05] <slon`> sup?
[11:06] <Inferus> Hi all, what do you do when somehow all your desktop bars have disappeared?
[11:06] <chemaja> Inferus: turn the monitor back on ;-)
[11:06] <Inferus> i can get the right click menu up
[11:07] <Inferus> but not any of the panels
[11:07] <Inferus> :P
[11:07] <chemaja> Inferus: alt-f2 and run `gnome-panel'
[11:07] <rem_> jan just take primary and name it /boot ...(u mean in the partitionning thing right?)
[11:07] <Inferus> im on xubuntu :s
[11:07] <chemaja> Inferus: panic.
[11:07] <chemaja> :P
[11:07] <Brokenstein> ok i installed new 686 kernel, how do i point system to it when i reboot?
[11:08] <Madpilot> Brokenstein, it should be used automatically
[11:08] <Madpilot> Inferus, #xubuntu
[11:08] <rem_> broke, it should have done it automatically if u did it with apt-get...otherwise edit the grub menu.lst file ..
[11:10] <BeepAU> !vmware
[11:10] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository. Instructions to install VMWare Server can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare
[11:10] <jan_> when installing ubuntu, is the only option to start the live cd and then go to the installer? the installer chrash on me the whole time..
[11:11] <Talisker[w] > I'm trying to ditch ubuntu and switch to slacky, but cfdisk won't recognize my main [ubuuntu]  partition
[11:11] <plastic> jan_, yes thats the way..
[11:12] <Talisker[w] > Could it be that ubuntu somehow denies access from my bootdisk system?
[11:12] <BeepAU> who's familiar with vmware?
[11:12] <chemaja> BeepAU: what about it
[11:12] <plastic> BeepAU, on what?
[11:12] <thoreauputic> Talisker[w] : yeah, Ubuntu is programmed to block Slackware ( it's a conspiracy) *G*
[11:12] <BeepAU> i'm running ubuntu, but want to play a windows game, can i play it through vmware?
[11:13] <Talisker[w] > and #ubuntu is programmed to take evrything out of context
[11:13] <plastic> BeepAU, its nonsence to do that..
[11:13] <Talisker[w] > BeepAU, wine is better for that
[11:13] <plastic> BeepAU, or cedega..
[11:14] <BeepAU> i tried using wine, but it told me to change the language, i tried to fix the problem with some help from those in #winehq, but we couldn't get it working
[11:14] <BeepAU> it's only a small game written in visual basic
[11:14] <plastic> BeepAU, what game?
[11:15] <BeepAU> it's called EWRevenge, it's a text based simulator
[11:15] <chemaja> BeepAU: it should be fine for non-3d games
[11:15] <Inferus> How good is cedega
[11:16] <chemaja> BeepAU: grab vmware player or server, both are free
[11:16] <Inferus> i wish i could play on linux, but i bet theres no real good benifit to
[11:16] <plastic> BeepAU, yep text based you could try ant thro wmvare
[11:17] <BeepAU> i got vmware, but it wants a virtual machine. where do i get that?
[11:17] <BeepAU> i have vmware player, if that makes a difference.
[11:17] <plastic> Inferus, i can gave u an exeple.. CS1.6non-steam on Win i get around 70 FPS on linux with cedega around 20 FPS.. so its clear
[11:18] <Talisker[w] > BeepAU, you need to get a windows image
[11:18] <Gasten> Hi. My X can't talk to my graphic card (a nVidia). How do I solve that? Configure X in some magical way (I have tried to modify XLL.conf, both in gedit and in the wizard), or ditch nVidia and get another, new, card?
[11:18] <BeepAU> where can i get that?
[11:18] <Talisker[w] > ...It's not very legal, hence, not very stationary
[11:19] <plastic> Gasten, go to ubuntuforums.org
[11:19] <Gasten> plastic: ok.
[11:21] <OsirisX11> Mount problem- every time i log in i have to remount my hda4 partition back to /mnt/68gb... it for some reason resets itself every time i reboot to /tmp/disks-conf-hda4
[11:22] <plastic> OsirisX11, configure yuor fstab
[11:23] <OsirisX11> the disks manager doesn't do that?
 Inferus, i can gave u an exeple.. CS1.6non-steam on Win i get around 70 FPS on linux with cedega around 20 FPS.. so its clear << whats your pc's specs?
[11:23] <Inferus> in windows i get 600fps in cs1.6
[11:23] <Inferus> :>
[11:23] <plastic> OsirisX11, i like fstab more.. :)
[11:24] <plastic> Inferus, P4 1.7Ghz. nVidia geforce4 mx4000 128MB. 256MB of ram.. :D
[11:24] <OsirisX11> plastic, see that's the thing though, i use the disks manager and it sets it up fine but it losese it when ir estart
[11:25] <Inferus> ah
[11:25] <Inferus> thats why then
[11:25] <Inferus> :)
[11:25] <OsirisX11> btw gparted is the shit yo!
[11:25] <plastic> yep

[11:25] <Inferus> on wine
[11:25] <damo22> how do i reconfigure all my fonts? theyve disappeared inside x
[11:25] <Josh> hey... need help with building a computer. is there a channel for that or can i ask here?
[11:26] <plastic> OsirisX11, just config your fstab its easy. and thenge the directory of mount.. it will be permenently changed..ofcorse until your next configuring.. :)
[11:26] <thoreauputic> Josh: #hardware
[11:26] <Josh> thanks
[11:26] <thoreauputic> Josh: it exists, i just checked :)
[11:26] <plastic> Inferus, there is cs1.6 NON-STEAM version for that..
[11:28] <OsirisX11> plastic..i shouldn't have to. is this a bug in the disk manager?
[11:29] <damo22> please help with fonts, how do i reconfigure them, they dont appear in xfce configuration
[11:29] <donrosin> how do i install psybnc?
[11:29] <OsirisX11> plastic: you're giving me the typical linux response of "just" editing a conf file. i am technically capable. it just pisses me off that i would have to. there should be graphical tools to do that.
[11:30] <Herb> i better stop playing with the sudo command, or i'm gonna wreck this box on the second day of my new dual-boot life style
[11:30] <OsirisX11> Herb: so you're swinging both ways now eh? we won't tell anyone about your new lifestyle.
[11:30] <donrosin> can someone help me install psybnc? PM
[11:30] <damo22> lol
[11:31] <OsirisX11> bi-bootual
[11:31] <Herb> bi-furious
[11:31] <OsirisX11> lol
[11:31] <damo22> haha
[11:31] <OsirisX11> thats only if windows AND linux are pissing you off
[11:31] <soheil> hi room
[11:32] <OsirisX11> soheil. no. :(
[11:33] <soheil> I have to run 'pon dsl-provider'  after each reboot
[11:33] <soheil> why?
[11:33] <OsirisX11> soheil put it in your startup script perhaps?
[11:33] <soheil> what?
[11:33] <soheil> I'm a new user
[11:33] <OsirisX11> i hate having to manually edit files too soheil so there is a nice easy graphical way to do it
[11:34] <OsirisX11> under system-->preferences-->sessions
[11:34] <soheil> a newbie
[11:34] <soheil> what way?
[11:34] <OsirisX11> under the startup tab add a new entry for just what you said
[11:35] <lhds> in nautilus where is the scrips folder? and how to extrack to tar scriptfile from gscript to it?
[11:35] <soheil> what is the start-up script?
[11:35] <OsirisX11> hi lhds
[11:35] <lhds> hi osiris
[11:35] <OsirisX11> i don't know of any particual scripts folder, you can use your home directory
[11:36] <OsirisX11> make a scripts folder of your own if you like
[11:36] <lhds> nautilus supports scripts by default
[11:36] <zoidberg> hey guys
[11:36] <lhds> you can google gscripts for that
[11:36] <lhds> the problem is installing them
[11:36] <zoidberg> is there a cd burning application that comes with Ubuntu to burn ISO images?
[11:36] <OsirisX11> whenever i'm feeling noobish i can just come in here and someone will out-noob me in no time. :)
[11:37] <erUSUL> zoidberg: right click on the iso file and choose burn
[11:37] <zoidberg> whats the name of the application though?
[11:37] <OsirisX11> zoidberg: k3b, gnomebaker
[11:37] <lhds> there is this auto installer that you can add ... it lets you downloads realplayer ndivia drivers autocapslock nautilus scripts what was its name?
[11:37] <BeepAU> if i'm on a dual-boot with ubuntu and windows, can i use vmware to access the windows partition?
[11:37] <OsirisX11> lhds: Automatix
[11:37] <erUSUL> nautilus the file manager burn iso files and canmake data cd's Places>Burner
[11:38] <lhds> yeah thanc
[11:38] <OsirisX11> BeepAU: you can mount ntfs drives easily without vmware.
[11:38] <lhds> that will copy my scripts for me
[11:38] <OsirisX11> BeepAU: but..yes..you could use vmware.
[11:38] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- i want to play a game which doesn't run in ubuntu
[11:38] <BeepAU> how do i run it in vmware?
[11:38] <OsirisX11> BeepAU: what game?
[11:39] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- it's a text based simulator written in visual basic called ewr
[11:39] <OsirisX11> you can run it in wine i'm pretty sure.
[11:39] <OsirisX11> are you familiar with wine, BeepAU?
[11:40] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- i've tried, it tells me to change the language, i worked with some guys in the wine support channel to get it working, but still can't do it
[11:40] <OsirisX11> i would also try crossover-office
[11:40] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- so, how do i run my other partition in vmware?
[11:41] <OsirisX11> can't help you with vmware issues.
[11:41] <OsirisX11> talk to them or read their site.
[11:42] <mcphail> BeepAU: i don't think you can "run a partition" in vmware
[11:43] <BeepAU> mcphail -- can i access the files in my windows partition and run them in vmware somehow?
[11:43] <OsirisX11> BeepAU: yes you can it will be evident inside of vmware
[11:43] <OsirisX11> should be very simple to access your windows partition
[11:43] <Zyfo> If I do a checkinstall on a .tar.zg file I will get a .deb file. Can I move this around freely without affecting the program? What happends if I remove it? Where "should" I place it?
[11:43] <mcphail> BeepAU: think of vmware as a separate windows box
[11:44] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- how?
[11:44] <OsirisX11> BeepAU: see above.
[11:44] <thoreauputic> Zyfo: once it is installed you can delete the .deb if you wish
[11:44] <BeepAU> OsirisX11 -- are you sure you can't help me?
[11:44] <OsirisX11> i can. i won't.
[11:44] <thoreauputic> Zyfo: it's just the "installer"
[11:44] <BeepAU> does vmware have a support channel?
[11:44] <OsirisX11> call it an asshole answer but this is #ubuntu
[11:44] <Zyfo> thoreauputic, will I still be able to uinstall it the "checkinstall way"?
[11:45] <necrofile> I need a bit of help...
[11:45] <OsirisX11> what's up necrofile?
[11:45] <thoreauputic> Zyfo: you would uninstall it with for instance apt-get remove <packagename>
[11:45] <necrofile> Whenever I open penny-arcade (website) Firefox just closes... Not just the tab, the whole program @.@
[11:45] <thoreauputic> Zyfo: it's just like other packages in other words
[11:45] <Zyfo> thoreauputic, ok, thanks
[11:45] <thoreauputic> :) np
[11:46] <OsirisX11> necrofile: ouch man. what version of ff are you running? just the one that came with ubuntu?
[11:46] <SillyZ> BeepAU... Whats the problem your having, maybe i can help since 'others' wont
[11:46] <SillyZ> cute
[11:46] <lhds> what is ubuntu compiz's channel?
[11:46] <thoreauputic> Zyfo: I usually keep mine in a ~/debs directory in case I need to reinstall or put it on another box
[11:46] <necrofile> I am actually using SwiftFox 1.5.6 or 1.5.06... Whatever the newest version is.
[11:46] <necrofile> installed it yesterday, haven't had much time to tool around with anything yet.
[11:46] <fyrestrtr> lhds: #ubuntu-xgl
[11:46] <BeepAU> SillyZ -- i'm trying to run a small program written in visual basic in ubuntu. i've tried with wine and haven't been able to get it working.
[11:47] <Zyfo> thoreauputic, ok
[11:47] <OsirisX11> necrofile: sorry i don't know anything about SwiftFox. I can give you general advice though.. try reinstalling it? are you using a beta? if so maybe try the stable
[11:47] <SillyZ> BeepAU why not write the program in gambas for starters, and compile it nativly for linux
[11:47] <SillyZ> instead of trying to run a win32 application via wine, under linux
[11:48] <BeepAU> SillyZ -- the source code isn't availabile. does that matter?
[11:48] <SillyZ> well if you compiled it, you have the source
[11:48] <necrofile> OsirisX11: could it be caused by a flash applet on the page? Don't want to re-install if it's not necessary.
[11:48] <OsirisX11> necrofile: yes.
[11:48] <shaantanu> hey ppl I am planning to install vmware on ubuntu and boot windows in it ... what shud i download, VMware Server Windows client package or VMware Server linux client package ?
[11:48] <shaantanu> !wine
[11:48] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:48] <BeepAU> SillyZ -- i'm sorry, could you rephrase that?
[11:49] <lhds> what touch on the keyboard is the superkey?
[11:49] <OsirisX11> lhds: windows key
[11:49] <rupert> shaantanu: linux client
[11:49] <OsirisX11> ubotu..cute name
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cute name - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:49] <SillyZ> beepau.... join #sillyz
[11:49] <mcphail> It always amuses me that windows == super
[11:49] <shaantanu> rupert : r u sure ...
[11:49] <frogzoo> !anything
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:50] <necrofile> My windows key doesn't work for some reason. I thought that was the superkey.
[11:50] <rupert> shaantanu: yes
[11:50] <necrofile> Why must I always have problems? XD
[11:50] <rupert> shaantanu: look about the extensions of these two files
[11:50] <mcphail> necrofile: you may have 2 windows keys - Super_L and Super_R
[11:50] <rupert> shaantanu: how do they look like ?
[11:50] <shaantanu> i already downloaded ... VMware Server for Linux.  and Management Interface
[11:51] <rupert> shaantanu: hmm
[11:51] <shaantanu> the files in quetsion both r zip files
[11:51] <necrofile> Shouldn't windows key+D show desktop?
[11:51] <rupert> shaantanu: so i am sorry
[11:51] <necrofile> Niether side works if it's still the shortcut.
[11:51] <rupert> shaantanu: the server is the app to run windows on linux
[11:51] <asfra> hi, in the new ubuntu distro, ndiswrapper is not included, only ndiswrapper-utils, is that all i need
[11:51] <shaantanu> ok
[11:52] <rupert> shaantanu: and the client is the app to configure better
[11:52] <shaantanu> what better
[11:52] <mcphail> necrofile: remap any reference to "super" to "super_l"
[11:52] <rupert> shaantanu: the system that is not running notively
[11:52] <shaantanu> ok
[11:52] <rupert> shaantanu: i suppouse
[11:52] <asfra> !ndiswrapper
[11:52] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:52] <shaantanu> so u suopose i shud go for the linux client ??
[11:53] <necrofile> mcphail: I'm pretty new to the advanced stuff here, where would I find the references to do this?
[11:53] <rupert> shaantanu: give me a second to check it
[11:53] <shaantanu> k
[11:53] <mcphail> necrofile: you using GNOME?
[11:53] <necrofile> Yup
[11:53] <shaantanu> ! about about
[11:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about about about - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:54] <shaantanu> qute infobot

[11:55] <shaantanu> ok
[11:55] <shaantanu> sorry
[11:56] <mcphail> shaantanu: if you /msg ubotu it will stop spamming the channel
[11:56] <shaantanu> rupert : are u there
[11:56] <rupert> shaantanu: yes i am looking
[11:56] <shaantanu> ok
[11:57] <rupert> shaantanu: have you already installed the vmware server for linux ?
[11:57] <shaantanu> no ... I m following a manual
[11:57] <shaantanu> and it tells me to download the client
[11:58] <rupert> shaantanu: good, as i remember there were everything written
[11:58] <shaantanu> now on the download site there r two clients
[11:58] <FirstStrike> hmm
[11:58] <FirstStrike> if i mount my windows drive from the livecd it mounts perfectly
[11:58] <shaantanu> so i m confused between which client to use
[11:58] <rupert> shaantanu: download this that ends with .exe :-)
[11:58] <shaantanu> and here we are !!
[11:58] <FirstStrike> but once i boot up on my install it won't mount
[11:58] <shaantanu> i already told u
[11:58] <shaantanu> both end in zip
[11:58] <necrofile> One last quick question; is there anyway that when I click an address bar or input field that it will automatically highlight everything with the first, single click?
[11:59] <rupert> this for windows will be ok i think
[11:59] <rupert> isn't it written in manual ?
[11:59] <shaantanu> ok fine
[11:59] <shaantanu> no
[11:59] <shaantanu> ambiguous
[11:59] <rupert> shaantanu: give me a link to the manual, please
[12:00] <shaantanu> rupert : To create new virtual machines, we need VMware server client package either for Windows if you want to create them from your Windows workstation or for Linux if you have a Linux workstation.
[12:01] <shaantanu> hi sanket
[12:01] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: hey
[12:01] <rupert> shaantanu: so i was wrong
[12:02] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: wasnt expecting to see uhere :P

[12:05] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: follow the first 3-4 steps for Vmware installation
[12:05] <necrofile> One last quick question; is there anyway that when I click an address bar or input field that it will automatically highlight everything with the first, single click?
[12:05] <C> how do I get my memory stick to work in dapper?
[12:05] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: yes...
[12:05] <shaantanu> ok .. thanx
[12:05] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: once you have vmware working, you can use it to run any OS

[12:06] <shaantanu> ok .. gr 8
[12:06] <Ackeubu_> fluxbox
[12:06] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: what arch do you use?

[12:06] <necrofile> If it's an SD card it will detect too
[12:06] <shaantanu> C: what do u mean by internal .. how do u connect it to ur computer ??
[12:07] <necrofile> which is what it sounds like what you mean by internal.
[12:07] <fyrestrtr> C: do you mean its built-in?
[12:07] <shaantanu> rupert : thanx for ur help man .. the problem is now resolved
[12:07] <FirstStrike> anyone have any idea why i'd be unable to mount a windows drive after compiling a kernel?
[12:07] <C> sony computers come with memory stick readers built in or onboard anyway inside
[12:07] <SanketMedhi> FirstStrike: why did you compile the kernel?
[12:08] <FirstStrike> because i needed 2.6.17
[12:08] <SanketMedhi> FirstStrike: did you choose the right modules? NTFS???
[12:08] <thoreauputic> FirstStrike: did you compile in ntfs/ fat support ?
[12:08] <FirstStrike> hmm
[12:08] <Ramunas> hello
[12:08] <FirstStrike> unless it was selected by default, no.
[12:08] <plastic> labas
[12:08] <SanketMedhi> isn't FAT support enabled by default?
[12:08] <SanketMedhi> oops! :P
[12:08] <Ramunas> when i try to write, erase or do anything else on my cd i get this: http://p.pixel.lt/paste/9eea7d5175379ca2dd303261116d04f5/nolines
[12:09] <FirstStrike> it's an NTFS file system
[12:09] <SanketMedhi> you can't rely on the defaults!
[12:09] <Ramunas> any ideas?
[12:09] <FirstStrike> yea, i know.
[12:09] <Ramunas> it used to work fine before
[12:09] <FirstStrike> i followed the guide on the forum
[12:09] <SanketMedhi> FirstStrike:  NTFS won't work like that
[12:09] <FirstStrike> did the tweeks
[12:09] <FirstStrike> hmm
[12:09] <SanketMedhi> FirstStrike: you have to enable NTF
[12:09] <SanketMedhi> NTFS*
[12:09] <FirstStrike> i'll go through it again
[12:09] <FirstStrike> do you know what option it's under?
[12:09] <necrofile> wth
[12:09] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[12:09] <SanketMedhi> don't remember sorry
[12:09] <nzk> How do i install linux under windows under mac osx under another linux under a 2nd mac os x
[12:09] <FirstStrike> ok
[12:09] <FirstStrike> i'll take a look
[12:10] <FirstStrike> that's the only thing that's broken though
[12:10] <Sakunix> cant sudo on a fresh install of ubuntu server?
[12:10] <Sakunix> any ideas?
[12:10] <FirstStrike> so i'll consider it good kernel
[12:10] <FirstStrike> :P
[12:10] <FirstStrike> since it's my first compile
[12:10] <Sakunix> error: about gethostbyname()
[12:10] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[12:10] <SanketMedhi> Sakunix: the user has to be in the admin group
[12:10] <fyrestrtr> Sakunix: edit /etc/hosts
[12:10] <Sakunix> fyrestrtr, whats it supposed to have in it
[12:11] <jrib> SanketMedhi: make sure the line "127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost luso127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost HOSTNAME" is in /etc/hosts, your HOSTNAME is in /etc/hostname
[12:11] <Sakunix> fyrestrtr, I have 3 machines next to eacho ther all with alost identical /etc/hosts
[12:11] <SanketMedhi> jrib: why me?
[12:11] <SanketMedhi> I did not ask the question! :S
[12:11] <shaantanu> lol
[12:11] <fyrestrtr> Sakunix: type 'hostname' , what do you get?
[12:11] <jrib> Sakunix: oops, taht was a typo, I mean: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost HOSTNAME
[12:11] <jrib> SanketMedhi: because I just woke up :)
[12:12] <SanketMedhi> lol
[12:12] <gotmilk> anyone available to answer some simple questions from a newbie?
[12:12] <jrib> gotmilk: just ask them, if we know we'll help you out
[12:12] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[12:12] <fyrestrtr> !anyone
[12:12] <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?
[12:12] <fyrestrtr> zoidberg: don't repeat, please.
[12:13] <gotmilk> lol ive come from others chans where its frowned apon and u get berated
[12:13] <mcphail> gotmilk: we're friendlier here :)
[12:13] <treb0r> hey chaps - can anybody tell me how to install a pc font in .zip format?
[12:13] <KenSentMe> !fonts
[12:13] <dools> hi, i'm using ubuntu 5.10 powerpc edition to install onto an iBook and i'm getting an error installing initrd tools. has anyone had experience with this?
[12:13] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[12:13] <ubotu> No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[12:13] <gotmilk> well im editing my sources.list file to uncomment lines as i installed while it wasnt connect to the net and the installed commented them , but i dont know how to save it after ive made the changes
[12:13] <Sakunix> ok you need root privaledges to edit /etc/hosts yes.. and sudo doesnt work
[12:13] <gotmilk> cli
[12:14] <Sakunix> we have a problem fyrestrtr and jrib
[12:14] <jrib> treb0r: you need to unzip it first I think
[12:14] <KenSentMe> gotmilk: use sudo
[12:14] <jrib> Sakunix: don't you have a root account on the server?
[12:14] <KenSentMe> !sudo > gotmilk
[12:14] <treb0r> jrib: and then what?
[12:14] <Sakunix> I do
[12:14] <KenSentMe> gotmilk: look at the info ubotu sent you
[12:14] <Sakunix> its a fresh install
[12:14] <Sakunix> just booted up
[12:14] <C> Any ideas on the built-in memory stick problem
[12:14] <jrib> treb0r: then follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[12:14] <shaantanu> gotmilk : sudo chmod 770 /etc/apt souces.list
[12:14] <Zyfo> I "installed" my ATI drivers with EasyUbuntu, but apparently they doesn't seem to work, cause I get 1 fps on lots of games which should work. How can I install them "manually"?
[12:14] <Sakunix> sudo doesnt work on this brand spanking new instal
[12:15] <dools> Sakunix: sudo is just a secure method of delegating root access
[12:15] <jrib> Sakunix: you should be able to type 'su -' and get root access
[12:15] <KenSentMe> !ati > Zyfo
[12:15] <Sakunix> kk
[12:15] <treb0r> jrib: thanks dude!
[12:15] <KenSentMe> Zyfo: check what ubotu sent you
[12:15] <k31th> wat is a "challange password" (regarding a ssl cert)
[12:15] <rupert> shaantanu: sorry i was of for few minut so, which one was the good one ?
[12:15] <Zyfo> thx, did
[12:15] <dools> Sakunix: it's quite a clever name actually because it's like 'su do' as in you 'do' an 'su', but also like pseudo root user :)
[12:16] <shaantanu> k31th: its kinda of a public key which the certificate matches withe records
[12:16] <fyrestrtr> its actually, switch user do
[12:16] <shaantanu> rupert : still to try
[12:16] <shaantanu> k13th : try out en.wikipedia.org for more info
[12:16] <k31th> shaantanu: should i mkae it secure or wat?
[12:16] <rupert> shaantanu: sorry i was of for few minut so, which one was the good one ?
[12:16] <scrooloose_> hi
[12:17] <scrooloose_> im trying to turn x off so i can install my video drivers
[12:17] <shaantanu> rupert : I dint try out will let u know soon
[12:17] <scrooloose_> but init 2 isnt doing it
[12:17] <dools> fyrestrtr: was it you in here yesterday who recommended i go from 6.0.6 to 5.10 when it was hanging doing install?
[12:17] <scrooloose_> any hints?
[12:17] <fyrestrtr> dools: no.
[12:17] <rupert> shaantanu: ok
[12:17] <jrib> !nvidia > scrooloose_
[12:17] <shaantanu> k13th: preferably yes
[12:17] <Sakunix> it tells me authentication failed
[12:17] <fyrestrtr> scrooloose_: ctrl+alt+f1, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:17] <Sakunix> when I type the password I typed at the install
[12:18] <gotmilk> so it will save the changes as i make them under sudo?
[12:18] <shaantanu> gotmilk : r u talking to me ??
[12:18] <dools> has anyone installed 5.10 on an iBook?
[12:18] <scrooloose_> Sakunix: thx
[12:18] <SanketMedhi> Sakunix: is the user you tried sudo with in the admin group?
[12:18] <gotmilk> anyone mate :)
[12:18] <shaantanu> gotmilk : sudo chmod 770 /etc/apt souces.list
[12:18] <Sakunix> I just installed installed it so I assume so
[12:18] <jrib> Sakunix: well you can reboot and choose recovery mode from the grub menu, but I'm not sure why you wouldn't be able to su to root unless your password is actually incorrect
[12:18] <shaantanu> this will allow u to save the file
[12:19] <Sakunix> jrib, kk will do
[12:19] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: what ?
[12:19] <mcphail> gotmilk: if you try to edit the file without using sudo, you will not be able to save
[12:19] <Ramunas> dools: I'm sure somebody has, just not me
[12:19] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: chmod to save a file? :S
[12:19] <shaantanu> he cant alter the sources.list file dude
[12:19] <mcphail> shaantanu: that is unsafe
[12:19] <dools> Ramunas: hyuk hyuk
[12:19] <shaantanu> chmod will be changing perms
[12:19] <fyrestrtr> shaantanu: that is not a solution.
[12:19] <shaantanu> by default he does not have the write perm
[12:19] <FirstStrike> in qconf, what's the difference between a dog in a check box and a check mark in the check box?
[12:19] <SanketMedhi> gotmilk: sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:19] <mcphail> shaantanu: i repeat, that is unsafe
[12:19] <FirstStrike> er..dot
[12:19] <shaantanu> by my comand it will give him write perm
[12:19] <fyrestrtr> shaantanu: there is a reason for that.
[12:19] <gotmilk> yeah thats what i am using
[12:20] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: changing perms can make the system insecure
[12:20] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: try changing perms of /etc/securetty :P
[12:20] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: you won't be able to login into your own system :P
[12:20] <thoreauputic> shaantanu: the permissions are there for good reasons
[12:20] <fyrestrtr> shaantanu: there is a reason the permissions are set the way they are, and there is a reason why you must use sudo. Don't think you can change permissions on files and make them writable for everyone and nothing will go wrong.
[12:20] <sergio-> hello
[12:20] <sergio-> is there a way to umask only one directory?
[12:20] <sergio-> i mean i want the subdir's and files created in that subdir have perms rwx for goup
[12:20] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: never mess with perms for non-private files
[12:21] <gotmilk> once im in the .list file and changed it how do i save lol (brnad new to linux) as if i have to say that though lol
[12:21] <mcphail> shaantanu: the sources.list is a list of _trusted_ download sites and should not be world-writable
[12:21] <pequatre> hello everyone. Does anyone know if xine supports .pae playback ? f so, which is the packet to dl ? thx
[12:21] <lhds> GUYS i have tried to download a 40 megs file for 5 times and its cutting ... i really need a getright like program i am on ubuntu help

[12:21] <fyrestrtr> lhds: sounds like a problem with your internet connection

[12:22] <mcphail> gotmilk: you might want to try an easier text editor to start off with
[12:22] <SanketMedhi> lhds: gwget breaks up a file if you disconnect it, wget does not
[12:23] <mcphail> gotmilk: vim is very powerful, but there is a lot to learn
[12:23] <SanketMedhi> gotmilk: System >> HElp >> System Documentation or go to wiki.ubuntu.com

[12:35] <flo> thanx for help
[12:35] <thoreauputic> shipit is up - pingable and open on port 80 anyway
[12:36] <metaloid> i'm getting sick of this:'ve a sony vaio-sz2hp. Everything was working fine, till I installed the latest kernel upgrade, now the i810 glx extensions don't work.qCould you help me out?
[12:36] <metaloid> And now, the most craziest thing. This laptop has 2 graphic cards, the intel and the nvidia.If I uninstall the nvidia-glx package and reinstall the libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa packages, the i810 glx extensions work perfectly untill I install the nvidia-glx, that causes them to don't work again.
[12:36] <KenSentMe> thoreauputic: i get a launchpad page
[12:36] <shaantanu> apt-get install wine
[12:36] <shaantanu> Reading package lists... Done
[12:36] <shaantanu> Building dependency tree... Done
[12:36] <shaantanu> Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:36] <shaantanu> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[12:36] <shaantanu> is only available from another source
[12:36] <thoreauputic> shipit is also listening on 443 - KenSentMe ah, I just telneted and pinged, let me look...
[12:36] <shaantanu> E: Package wine has no installation candidate
[12:36] <shaantanu> what to do ??
[12:36] <thoreauputic> shaantanu: do *NOT* paste here!
[12:37] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: wine is no longer in the main repos
[12:37] <SanketMedhi> !pastebin > shaantanu
[12:37] <shaantanu> what repo then
[12:37] <SanketMedhi> !pastebin
[12:37] <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)
[12:37] <shaantanu> k
[12:37] <Zyfo> uff. that ATI guide really fucked things up :p
[12:37] <metaloid> have u seen my problem?
[12:38] <metaloid> 've a sony vaio-sz2hp. Everything was working fine, till I installed the latest kernel upgrade, now the i810 glx extensions don't work.qCould you help me out?
[12:38] <metaloid> And now, the most craziest thing.

[12:38] <shaantanu> anyways what repo is it in then
[12:38] <DevGet> http://pastebin.se/3454 <- anyone who knowns how to fix so apcupsd will be able to create the look file?
[12:38] <thoreauputic> KenSentMe: yes, confirmed - I get launchpad too
[12:38] <ShaggyDog> metaloid:  does your memory stick reader work on you vaio?
[12:39] <metaloid> lolol... havent tried the memory stick
[12:39] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[12:39] <Zyfo> I had all my file systems set to Ext3, now, after some fuckups I did in ubuntu, it's apparently set to RAW (X is wrongly confg. or so) What can I do to get it back to ext2(3)?
[12:39] <thoreauputic> there was maintenance on launchpad a few hours ago - maybe a few tweaks to do still
[12:40] <kyefun> anyone know how to get unicode to work on rythembox?
[12:40] <metaloid> ShaggyDog : on the computer view there is a sony hs-usb stick,dunno what it is
[12:40] <ShaggyDog> what kernel version are you using?
[12:41] <metaloid> 2.6.15-26-686
[12:41] <tuxub> hello everyone
[12:41] <Zyfo> !ati
[12:41] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:42] <ShaggyDog> metaloid:  mine doesn't mount at all, nothing happens when I put in a MS
[12:42] <Zyfo> I did  'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and then everything got fucked up. How can I go back to the backed up version using only terminal?
[12:42] <tuxub> i am having a problem with procmail: doesnt this rule * ^Subject: {Spam?} catch all e-mails whose subjects start with {Spam?} and with anything after that???
[12:47] <thoreauputic> !language > Zyfo
[12:47] <Zyfo> well ok, I'm sorry.
[12:47] <gotmilk> is :WQ a special key?
[12:48] <stray77> in vi?
[12:48] <mcphail> gotmilk: no
[12:48] <gotmilk> yeah
[12:48] <thoreauputic> gotmilk: no, you hit escape, then type that ( in vi)
[12:48] <stray77> : signifies a command
[12:48] <stray77> w = write
[12:48] <stray77> q=quit
[12:48] <mcphail> gotmilk: type "escape" to go to command mode then ":wq" to write and quit
[12:48] <ShaggyDog> metaloid:  vaoi vgn-tx1 and a desktop v2m - on neither does it work - is it my kernel?
[12:48] <martinvdk> why is enemy territory running at 10 fps in ubuntu and about 60 fps in windows??
[12:49] <shaantanu> gotmilk : <esc> :x will work just the same
[12:49] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: Check for automatic backups in /etc/X11 . If that fails, run it again. You should have backuped your xorg.conf though ...
[12:49] <Ng> martinvdk: have you installed the binary drivers for your graphics card?
[12:49] <martinvdk> I have installed those drivers from easy ubuntu
[12:49] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: There is a way to automatically detect anything without questions, like during installation, but I can't remember the command ....
[12:49] <Zyfo> neutrinomass: I have no idea how it's done.And yes, there is a bcakup but I don't know HOW to activate it
[12:49] <Ng> martinvdk: what kind of card do you have?
[12:50] <martinvdk> when I look down to the ground I can get it to 70 fps, but when I look up it drops
[12:50] <martinvdk> nvidia geforce 4 420GO 32 mb
[12:50] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: "sudo mv /path/to/backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and then hit ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:50] <gotmilk> ahh k escape then : then wq lol
[12:50] <Ng> martinvdk: perhaps try turning down some detail levels, but it sounds like its all ok
[12:50] <gotmilk> stupid me was being literal when someone said ESC + :WQ
[12:50] <Zyfo> neutrinomass: where's the backup then? I know it's at some logical place but I don't know where it actually is, you don't happen to know what the name is called?
[12:50] <Ng> martinvdk: you can run "glxinfo | grep vendor" in a terminal to check that you don't have an SGI GL library still being used
[12:50] <SanketMedhi> martinvdk: are you sure your drivers are working fine?
[12:50] <martinvdk> Ng: I've tried running on LOWEST detail and 640x480, it still only runs at about 25 fps
[12:50] <mcphail> gotmilk: vim isn't intuitive
[12:50] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: Um.. not sure. Try looking in /etc/X11 ...
[12:51] <Zyfo> neutrinomass: I know it craeted a backup, I even wrote it up in a .txt file, problem is I can't access that drive anymore... :P
[12:51] <Zyfo> ok, thanks
[12:51] <Zyfo> neutrinomass: how do I list all files in a dir?
[12:51] <gotmilk> much better now its actually communicating with the reps
[12:51] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: 'ls'
[12:51] <SanketMedhi> ls
[12:51] <SanketMedhi> :P
[12:51] <Zyfo> ok
[12:51] <Zyfo> what does "ctrl alt backspace" does?
[12:51] <stray77> ls -ln |more
[12:51] <neutrinomass> Zyfo: Take a look at /var/backups as well, it's likely to be there
[12:51] <SanketMedhi> restart X server
[12:51] <mcphail> Zyfo: dpkg-reconfigure creates a backup itself before changing the file
[12:51] <Zyfo> mcphail: I know, I just don't know how to activate the backup.
[12:51] <mcphail> Zyfo: have you locate dthat backup?
[12:52] <neutrinomass> ...he actually doesn't know where the backup is ... my guess is /var/backup
[12:52] <Zyfo> mcphail: no, I don't know how to do that either.
[12:52] <martinvdk> Ng: glxinfo | grep vendor gives Server glx vendor string: Nvidia Corporation, the same for client glx vendor string, and openGL vendor string
[12:52] <x-s-> what's the ubuntu xgl support channel?
[12:52] <neutrinomass> x-s-: #ubuntu-xgl
[12:52] <SanketMedhi> !xgl
[12:52] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[12:52] <KenSentMe> #ubuntu-xgl
[12:52] <Ng> martinvdk: that suggests that the accelerated drivers are working fine. try dropping the detail levels a bit I guess
[12:53] <martinvdk> Ng: It runs at about 25 fps with everything OFF/low and 640x480
[12:53] <mcphail> Zyfo: it will be under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.chainofnumbers
[12:53] <Zyfo> mcphail: thanks!
[12:53] <mcphail> Zyfo: the chain of numbers is the date of the backup
[12:53] <Zyfo> yeah, ty
[12:54] <gotmilk> hrmm i can ping google but its not connecting to the au archives
[12:54] <horrork> Ok here it isHp is 361855-001
[12:54] <gotmilk> should i just use the global ones
[12:55] <shaji> how does one play aveseq files on a dapper install?
[12:55] <mcphail> gotmilk: have you run "sudo apt-get update"
[12:55] <ShaggyDog> metaloid:  any ideas re memory stick?
[12:55] <shaji> avseq files are the mpeg files found on VCDs
[12:55] <gotmilk> yeah ive just run that and its not connecting
[12:56] <tuxtux> ciao
[12:56] <ompaul> gotmilk, paste the contents into http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:56] <thoreauputic> gotmilk: you are using au.archive.ubuntu.com ?
[12:56] <gotmilk> yeah
[12:56] <azcazandco> hello everyone, can someone help me regain some key mappings?  for some reason I can no longer get the pound sign nor take screen grabs
[12:57] <thoreauputic> gotmilk: well, it appears to be up
[12:57] <thoreauputic> gotmilk: there are other u mirrors
[12:57] <thoreauputic> umm .au mirrors
[12:57] <ompaul> thoreauputic, use a web browser to prove :)
[12:58] <thoreauputic> ompaul: good advice :)
[12:58] <shaji> ubotu
[12:58] <thoreauputic> ompaul: gotmilk yep it open in FF no problems
[12:58] <thoreauputic> *opens
[12:59] <gotmilk> yeah same here on my laptop but not on the server
[12:59] <roxlu> hi all!
[12:59] <gotmilk> wierd
[12:59] <ompaul> gotmilk, please paste the sources.list in paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:59] <roxlu> does anyone know a small / simple c++ editor for ubuntu?
[12:59] <mcphail> azcazandco: have you just switched to xgl/compiz?
[12:59] <[UNLY] mrp> anyone knows of a good streaming audio player for ubuntu to listen to online radio stations? Thanks
[01:00] <azcazandco> mcphail: I have installed it but not using it
[01:00] <nrdb> roxlu: I like gedit
[01:00] <roxlu> ok tahnx
[01:00] <gotmilk> umm id have to type the entire thing lol
[01:00] <thoreauputic> roxlu: nedit or scite perhaps
[01:00] <roxlu> thanx a lot..
[01:01] <thoreauputic> [UNLY] mrp: what kind of streams?
[01:01] <thoreauputic> [UNLY] mrp: you might enjoy streamtuner for shoutcast streams
[01:01] <azcazandco> mcphail: just figured out I can no longer tab for name completion in gaim also
[01:01] <[UNLY] mrp> ok i'll check it out,thanks
[01:02] <mcphail> azcazandco: no idea why, i'm afraid
[01:02] <Tarandus> !firewall
[01:02] <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)
[01:02] <thoreauputic> [UNLY] mrp: your choice depends on what codecs the station uses really
[01:02] <azcazandco> mcphail: bummer
[01:02] <Zyfo> thanks a lot for your help guys, whoever you were, backup worked :P
[01:02] <thoreauputic> [UNLY] mrp: if you install streamtuner. install streamripper as well :)
[01:03] <Tarandus> my problem is that a) I need to log in and manually start firestarter and b) I cannot setup eth0 automatically to have no default route
[01:03] <Zyfo> !ati
[01:03] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:03] <azcazandco> oh well... back to try and map them again
[01:03] <Tarandus> that means a) I'd need a way to ifconfig eth0 up automatically without giving it a default gw
[01:04] <Tarandus> and b) then a way to start firestarter or something like that automatically
[01:04] <Tarandus> please help me and you rescue one machine from the grip of Gentoo ;)
[01:05] <mcphail> Tarandus: you don't have to log in to firestarter
[01:05] <mcphail> Tarandus: the rules it creates are present at boot
[01:05] <niekie> Tarandus, do you want to do something before the network connection comes up?
[01:05] <niekie> If so, use pre-up rules.
[01:05] <gotmilk> maybe i should give up on server based and just go desktop
[01:05] <Tarandus> mcphail: I guess firestarter fails to start because I have "internal" net always present (etho) but external net only sometimes (a pluggable WLAN card)
[01:06] <Lattyware> Hey, anyone know how to get an origonal Xbox controller working under Ubuntu?
[01:06] <stray77> gotmilk, try this http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06
[01:06] <jisatsu> does Ubuntu get installed with any kind of firewall by default?
[01:07] <Tarandus> so, I think I need network-manager to manage the WLAN card, and I need to set eth0 statically so that it will not have a default gateway
[01:07] <gotmilk> yeah ive seen that but for some reason this thing doesnt want to contact the archives keeps failing even though it can resolve goole and such when i ping it
[01:07] <Acid___> jisatsu: yes, iptables
[01:07] <Tarandus> niekie: Where are they located exactly?
[01:07] <gotmilk> google and such
[01:07] <niekie> Tarandus, umm..
[01:07] <jisatsu> Acid___:  how do I configure it to allow port 80?
[01:08] <Acid___> jisatsu: it allows everything by default :)
[01:08] <mcphail> Tarandus: edit /etc/network/interfaces (using man interfaces)
[01:08] <niekie> You need to add them to /etc/network/interfaces
[01:08] <jisatsu> it does? people are having trouble connecting to my httpd, refused connections
[01:08] <gotmilk> should i install breezy and then update to dapper, ive got a breezy install cd
[01:08] <gotmilk> or should i download and burn dapper
[01:08] <stray77> download the latest
[01:08] <niekie> Does anybody know how I should get my USB ext3 drive mounted on bootup?
[01:08] <stray77> use the .torrents
[01:09] <Acid___> jisatsu: humm, what is your internet connection ?
[01:09] <niekie> I have a USB HD partitioned with FAT32 and ext3
[01:09] <jisatsu> dsl
[01:09] <gotmilk> yeah ill install breezy to see if there is something wrong with the network while im download dapper
[01:09] <niekie> I want to mount the USB drive on /media/usbext3 on boot.
[01:09] <Tarandus> rebooting the firewall, brb
[01:09] <drpc> hi
[01:09] <Acid___> jisatsu: usb or ethernet ?
[01:09] <mcphail> niekie: somewhere under /media/
[01:09] <RamiKassab> hey guys, for some reason I get the "Unlock Keyring" popup for Network Manager that asks me to enter a password for default keyring to unlock for nm-applet. is there any way to get rid of this and what exactly is it trying to do?
[01:09] <jisatsu> Acid___:  Ethernet, but I have a DMZ configured
[01:09] <niekie> I tried the following on /etc/fstab: /dev/sda2       /media/usbext3  ext3    auto            0       0
[01:09] <drpc> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[01:09] <Acid___> jisatsu: ok
[01:10] <niekie> Though that does not work, the HD is not mounted on boot.
[01:10] <mcphail> niekie: the device will be /dev/sdx (where x could be any number)
[01:10] <niekie> However if I do sudo mount -a it does work.
[01:10] <niekie> mcphail, yes, I figured that out :)
[01:10] <drpc> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[01:10] <cowbud> can someone explain to me how login authenticates against the shadow passwd file?
[01:10] <niekie> /dev/sda1 is the FAT32, /dev/sda2 is ext3
[01:10] <IOU> any ideas why when booting from a CD on one of my computers, just after the Kernel loads, the system restarts?
[01:11] <Acid___> jisatsu: have you looked at netstat ?
[01:11] <mcphail> niekie: there used to be issues between udev and hotplug on boot, but don't know if that has been smoothed out since they were integrated
[01:11] <drpc> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[01:11] <niekie> mcphail, hmm..
[01:11] <jisatsu> Acid___:  what in particular? not sure how to use it
[01:11] <niekie> Do you know of any possible workaround?
[01:11] <Acid___> jisatsu: to see if it binds to the correct IP
[01:11] <mcphail> niekie: you could try adding mount -a to root's crontab @reboot
[01:12] <jrib> !compile > drpc
[01:12] <DarkRain> hello.
[01:12] <jisatsu> ah ok, good point ^^ lemme check
[01:12] <drpc> how
[01:12] <drpc> how?
[01:12] <jrib> drpc: check your private messages from ubotu
[01:12] <mcphail> niekie: but that is a poor hack
[01:12] <Acid___> drpc: apt-get install build-essential :)
[01:12] <niekie> mcphail, would it give any issues?
[01:12] <mcphail> niekie: it shouldn't
[01:12] <DarkRain> I was wondering, how difficult it is to set up a second monitor in ubuntu. (still trying to find a distro to settle down with)
[01:12] <jisatsu> Acid___:  looks like my IP address changed when I installed Linux, that must be it ^^ thanks for the help, I'll see if changing it fixes it
[01:13] <Acid___> jisatsu: ok :)
[01:14] <KenSentMe> DarkRain: check the forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[01:14] <mcphail> niekie: external usb drives have been problematic since udev was introduced
[01:14] <niekie> mcphail, =S
[01:14] <IOU> any ideas?
[01:14] <niekie> mcphail, it actually is an internal HD, but it's on an external casing, with USB.
[01:14] <niekie> Anyway, let's try adding the cron.
[01:14] <mcphail> niekie: same thing, i'm afraid
[01:15] <niekie> mcphail, I'm not that experienced with cron, how would I add it?
[01:15] <forngren> How can I use my ubuntu dvd to gain root access, in order to fix grub? I can't get http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_use_Ubuntu_Installation_CD.2C_to_gain_root_user_access to work
[01:15] <niekie> sudo -i and crontab -e, then add @reboot whattodo?
[01:15] <mcphail> niekie: type "sudo crontab -e -u root"
[01:15] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[01:15] <Acid___> forngren: sudo passwd root
[01:16] <mcphail> niekie: then in the editor type "@reboot mount -a"
[01:16] <niekie> mcphail, allright, thank you very much :)
[01:16] <forngren> Acid___: huh, from live interface?
[01:16] <niekie> I'm going to try it now.
[01:16] <Acid___> forngren: mount your boot partition and fix it :)
[01:16] <niekie> Be back in a bit, I'll tell if it worked.
[01:16] <Acid___> forngren: yep, start a terminal
[01:16] <mcphail> niekie: _hopefully_ it will work
[01:16] <Lattyware> Hey, anyone know how to get an origonal Xbox controller working under Ubuntu?
[01:16] <Acid___> forngren: sudo passwd root <= to acces root account
[01:16] <Acid___> forngren: and then mount your boot partition
[01:16] <gotmilk> do the different desktop enviroments impact on programming development for applications within it?
[01:17] <forngren> Acid___: ok, thanks
[01:17] <mcphail> gotmilk: yes
[01:17] <jatt> gotmilk: no
[01:17] <gotmilk> hugely or just a little bit
[01:17] <gotmilk> lol
[01:17] <IOU> any ideas why when booting from a CD on one of my computers, just after the Kernel loads, the system restarts? Thought it could be a power issue
[01:17] <Acid___> forngren: hope that helps :)
[01:17] <gotmilk> which one :)
[01:17] <Acid___> forngren: query me if you need :)
[01:18] <jatt> gotmilk: Using emacs for development works the same on gnome, kde, etc. It depends on the development tools you use.
[01:18] <mcphail> gotmilk: gnome apps use gtk and gnome libraries. KDE apps use Qt. You _can_ use whatever widget set you want in either environment, but they'll look different
[01:18] <mr3vil> moin
[01:19] <Lattyware> OK, I have my xbox controller connected to my PC via a XBX -> USB cable I created, and I can get it to work with Windows Xbox Controller drivers, but I cannot find any equivalent Linux drivers.
[01:19] <gotmilk> im thinking about using xcfe as id like to use ltsp and not have a huge amount of processing to be done on the server (which is what they say xfce is better for)
[01:19] <Acid___> Lattyware: there's a driver in the kernel
[01:19] <Lattyware> Acid___: How can I get that to work then?
[01:20] <gotmilk> or what would u guys recommend?
[01:20] <Lattyware> Bacause I cannot get anything to recognise the controller
[01:20] <Acid___> Lattyware: modprobe xpad
[01:20] <shaji> any idea on how to play plain Video CDs on dapper?
[01:20] <shaji> i have the w32codecs installed
[01:21] <Zyfo> Is there some way I can transfer my mouse settings from Windows to Ubuntu? I really can't get it right.
[01:21] <KenSentMe> !vlc > shaji
[01:21] <Acid___> Lattyware: and then modprobe joydev
[01:21] <jatt> gotmilk: I don't understand what you are asking for. Do your application depend on a desktop manager? What does your application do?
[01:21] <IOU> brb in 5-10
[01:21] <Lattyware> Acid___: Done both.
[01:21] <Acid___> Lattyware: jstest /dev/js0 ?
[01:21] <shaji> thanks KenSentMe
[01:22] <Lattyware> jstest: No such file or directory
[01:22] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[01:23] <Acid___> Lattyware: apt-get install joystick
[01:23] <Lattyware> Acid___: Got it allready
[01:23] <Lattyware> joystick is already the newest version.
[01:24] <Acid___> Lattyware: can you see in your dmesg if it talks about a joystick device
[01:25] <Lattyware> I don't understand, dmesg?
[01:25] <Tarandus> no, I still need to start the firestarter GUI to have the firewall work
[01:25] <jujimufu> ok, so, I went to this site: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building and I downloaded git and git-core, and when I run git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/drm, it says "/usr/bin/gitfm: fatal error: `chdir' failed: permission denied."

[01:26] <niekie> I'm now formatting it again because I messed something else up though, hehe. :)
[01:26] <mcphail> :)

[01:28] <unplugd> Can anybody help? How to make apache/ubuntu read php3 file extensions? (trying to run dialupadmin with freeradius)
[01:29] <Lattyware> unplugd: Go into your httpd.conf
[01:29] <forngren> Acid___: I've mounted by boot partition, can I just sudo grub-install /boot/partition?
[01:29] <unplugd> lattyware: entering http.conf
[01:30] <Lattyware> add index.php3 to your DirectoryIndex list
[01:30] <KenSentMe> unplugd: are you using Apache or Apache2, if the latter, then make you config in apache.conf
[01:30] <Acid___> forngren: you grub-install /dev/xxx
[01:30] <stray77> unplugd, check out http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p6

[01:31] <cntb> cntb: hi licensing problem in buying hp or any other portable. since a porable computer is not as modular in the buying sense of word. all companies impose buying an oem Ms license which I don t need in two cases . 1. linux !!! 2. customer already owns Volume license and has an unused license.>>>>>>>>>> so How to fight this ???
[01:31] <unplugd> trying to find directoryindex list ,using apache2
[01:31] <Khamael> if 64-bit isn`t that much faster than 32-bit, what is the point?
[01:31] <Lattyware> 64bit supports more RAM and stuff
[01:31] <Lattyware> I belive.
[01:31] <zoidberg> can anyone help me with getting ubntu to work on a G3 POWERBOOK?
[01:31] <Lattyware> Things like that.
[01:31] <Zyfo> Is there some way I can transfer my mouse settings from Windows to Ubuntu?
[01:31] <unplugd> found directoryindexlist in apache2.conf changed the settings
[01:32] <Lattyware> Acid___: OK, There were two lines refering to Xpad.
[01:32] <Lattyware> [4306087.185000]  input: X-Box pad as /class/input/input5 [4300905.272000]  input: X-Box pad as /class/input/input4
[01:33] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: what problem do you have. Explain what doesn't work and maybe someone here has a solution
[01:33] <Acid___> Lattyware: but none of them are talking us about a physical device
[01:33] <Nightattack> hello, I'm not getting any sound when playing Enemy Territory, can anyone help me please ^^ ?
[01:33] <Lattyware> Acid___: Not as far as I can see.
[01:33] <KenSentMe> Nightattack: do you have other programs running?
[01:33] <Nightattack> only gaim
[01:34] <KenSentMe> Nightattack: maybe close that too. I don't have sound in ET when i have TeamSpeak running
[01:34] <Nightattack> i tried already, didn't work :(
[01:34] <dmsantam> when i try to change resolution in gnome, it claims that: "The X Server does not support the XRandR extension"
[01:35] <dmsantam> how can i turn this on in xorg.conf?
[01:35] <justin_> Nightattack: did you try restarting ALSA?
[01:35] <zoidberg> well guys i'm trying to install Ubuntu Badger on a newworld G3 powerbook 333mhz 64mb ram
[01:35] <Nightattack> jusin_: how?
[01:35] <Nightattack> justin_: how? (ops :P )
[01:35] <zoidberg> when i am intalling it
[01:35] <zoidberg> i get all the way to partitioning diks
[01:35] <zoidberg> disk
[01:36] <zoidberg> and then the screen keeps on going white
[01:36] <zoidberg> any solutions?
[01:36] <KenSentMe> !return
[01:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about return - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:36] <KenSentMe> !enter
[01:36] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[01:36] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: do you try to install Breezy Badger or Dapper Drake?
[01:36] <zoidberg> breezy badger
[01:36] <zoidberg> i had tried installing xubuntu dapper
[01:36] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: maybe you can try the latest version Dapper
[01:37] <zoidberg> but i found out that dapper doesnt support g3 powerbooks
[01:37] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: ah, ok
[01:37] <justin_> Nightattack:  alsa-utils -restart from what I remember :P
[01:37] <zoidberg> it works randomly on some G3 machines
[01:37] <IOU> does anyone know why when i try booting from a CD on one of my computers, just after the Kernel loads, the system restarts? Thought it could be a power issue
[01:37] <zoidberg> but i had badger working before
[01:37] <zoidberg> i had installed it on this G3 powerbook
[01:37] <zoidberg> its when i tried to upgrade to dapper that i had problems
[01:37] <zoidberg> so i thought i should just install badger again
[01:37] <justin_> Nightattack: try /etc/init.d/alsa-utils -restart
[01:37] <justin_> Nightattack: try /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[01:38] <chris449> in this order: the computer came with xp, i re partitioned and installed ubuntu, grub didn't work, i installed bootmagic, grub runs when i select linux from bootmagic. how do i stop grub running?
[01:38] <zoidberg> and now i get this problem tat i dont know how to fix
[01:38] <justin_> try both with the - and without it
[01:38] <chris449> could someone help me?
[01:38] <zoidberg> anyone have any ideas
[01:38] <zoidberg> ?
[01:38] <Nightattack> justin_: ok i restarted
[01:38] <IOU> zoidberg, does your system do anything when it starts?>
[01:38] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: have you tried manual partitioning?
[01:39] <justin_> Nightattack: Alright, see if you have your sound back
[01:39] <nikon> ne 1 know why
[01:39] <Nightattack> justin_: didn't work, should I try to shut down gaim again?
[01:39] <mcphail> chris449: you didn't install grub to the mbr at your initial install
[01:39] <thoreauputic> zoidberg: I just did a wiki search on ibook G3 - you might find something that helps in there ->>
[01:39] <zoidberg> haventr really tried manula partitoning
[01:39] <nikon> synaptic would just load into memory
[01:39] <thoreauputic> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/G3?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=ibook+G3&fullsearch=Text
[01:39] <nikon> and then not show up ?!?
[01:39] <zoidberg> but how will that be any differien?
[01:39] <mcphail> chris449: instead you installed it to your ubuntu parttition
[01:39] <justin_> Nightattack: Besides gaim what do you have running right now?
[01:39] <justin_> Nightattack: Do you have any browsers open?
[01:39] <Nightattack> justin_: firefox
[01:39] <mistraal> how do I add locales on ubuntu server?
[01:39] <mcphail> chris449: your new bootloader will simply call grub on that partition
[01:39] <thoreauputic> zoidberg: oops sorry you said powerbook
[01:39] <justin_> Nightattack: Close it
[01:40] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: don't know , maybe there's a problem with the automatic partitioner
[01:40] <IOU> any ideas at all on my prob?
[01:40] <Nightattack> justin_: closed and tried et again, but still no sound
[01:40] <justin_> Nightattack: Sometimes flash will close the sound to all other apps, ven XMMS etc..
[01:40] <forngren> Acid___: http://ubuntu.pastecode.com/3226
[01:40] <nikon> ne ideas on my prob?
[01:41] <KenSentMe> nikon: when you run it from terminal, do you get an error or something?
[01:41] <nikon> no thats the thing
[01:41] <justin_> Nightattack: You have no sound in what again. ET right?\
[01:41] <nikon> i will try right now
[01:41] <zoidberg> so how do i use manual partitioning
[01:41] <zoidberg> ?
[01:41] <Nightattack> justin_: yep, in ET
[01:41] <stray77> carefully
[01:41] <chris449> i installed grub to the MBR when i installed ubuntu ( i guess it was automatic)
[01:41] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: it's an option in the installer
[01:41] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: don't know exactly
[01:41] <chris449> but it kept rebooting the comp, so i used a bootcd to install bootmagic
[01:42] <zoidberg> do i need to be in exper mode
[01:42] <mcphail> chris449: by what you have said, you didn't :(
[01:42] <nikon> KenSentMe yer it just
[01:42] <chris449> ok whatever
[01:42] <nikon> sits their cursor flashin
[01:42] <chris449> how do i get rid of it?
[01:42] <nikon> loads into mem
[01:42] <nikon> thats it
[01:42] <KenSentMe> zoidberg: i don't know. It's been a long time since i installed Breezy
[01:42] <alek> hi
[01:42] <thoreauputic> zoidberg: no, don't use expert mode unless you know how to set up sudo and groups
[01:42] <trygg> Heh, what do i have to apt-get to have gtk2-chtheme?
[01:42] <stray77> chris449, what do you want to replace it with?
[01:42] <chris449> bootmagic
[01:42] <chris449> bootmagic is in the MBR atm
[01:43] <thoreauputic> zoidberg: th eexpert install sets a root password and you have to reconfigure sudo manually
[01:43] <alek> which command stops ftp deamon?
[01:43] <chris449> but when bootmagic calls the linux partition, it freezes at GRUB loading stage 2
[01:43] <mcphail> chris449: you should be able to configure your new bootloader to directly boot the linux partition, rather than just calling grub. i have no experience with that bootloader tough, so can't tell you the syntax
[01:43] <nikon> lol it sits in mem
[01:43] <chris449> hmm ok thanks
[01:43] <chris449> i'll give it a whirl
[01:43] <nikon> makin everythin go slow
[01:43] <stray77> alek, which ftp server r u running?
[01:43] <nikon> high processor usage
[01:43] <thoreauputic> alek: depends which one - for example though sudo /etc/init.d/pureftpd stop
[01:44] <alek> vsftpd
[01:44] <eminem2oo> hello
[01:44] <thoreauputic> usually the scrip is in /etc/init.d anyway
[01:44] <alek> oki ill check
[01:44] <alek> it works
[01:44] <alek> =] 
[01:44] <thoreauputic> :)
[01:44] <eminem2oo> HOW CAN I CONNECT THRU THE UNDERNET ?
[01:45] <alek> so every deamon is placed into /etc/init.d ?
[01:45] <thoreauputic> eminem2oo: first take the gum out from behind your caps lock
[01:45] <soheil> I havve problem swith many things
[01:45] <thoreauputic> ie stop shouting
[01:45] <KenSentMe> emile: he now has gum behind his power button
[01:45] <soheil> I dowwnloaded some thing using wine
[01:46] <KenSentMe> emile: sorry, i meant thoreauputic
[01:46] <jrib> soheil: try to tell us one thing at a time, or if some things eem related then just let us know
[01:46] <thoreauputic> heh I didn't notice the /quit
[01:46] <thoreauputic> :)
[01:47] <Tarandus> I'd need a way to set up a firewall with external network device absent so that when it is inserted (a pluggable WLAN card) the firewall would start functioning immediately
[01:47] <Nightattack> hello, I have no sound while playing ET, can anyone help me solve that ^^ ?
[01:47] <tjm> So erm.. why do you people use Ubuntu ?
[01:48] <agt> street cred
[01:48] <mr3vil> tjm cause it rocks
[01:48] <KenSentMe> Nightattack: have you tried running ET from terminal, maybe you get a sound error
[01:48] <Tarandus> Firestarter fails if the card is a) not inserted or b) not asociated with an access point
[01:48] <Nightattack> KenSentMe: yes i tried, no errors
[01:48] <jrib> Nightattack: make sure nothhing else is playing any sound before you start ET
[01:48] <XVampireX> tjm: Cause that's the buzzword nowadays, just like: Why do you use mp3's?
[01:49] <ardchoille> tjm: I use Ubuntu because I have found that it works best for what I want to do in Linux :)
[01:49] <lukus001> How can i mount my window xp hard disk. i tired "mount /dev/hdc1/ media window -t ntfs but that just make the drive respond to nothing whereas before is said it couldnt mount w/e
[01:49] <Nightattack> jrib: still didn't work :<
[01:49] <XVampireX> tjm: I'm about to try Gentoo though, I hear it's good and modular :P
[01:49] <jrib> Nightattack: try 'aoos command_for_ET' maybe?
[01:50] <jrib> Nightattack: aoss I mean
[01:50] <Nightattack> jrib: aoss et?
[01:50] <KenSentMe> Has anyone got dual screen working with an Ati 9800 Pro? I've run the tutorial on the ubuntuforums, but it doesn't work for me. The second screen is always the same as the first.
[01:50] <jrib> Nightattack: yeah, you'll need the alsa-oss package installed though
[01:50] <Nightattack> jrib: i get an error regarding sound
[01:51] <soheil> I installed a CD 'strategy' using wine
[01:51] <tsw> any ideas why clean dapper server install says "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy" on ifup eth1?
[01:51] <Tarandus> Is there a way to store keys to wlan networks so that network-manager would not always cause the system to ask for a keyring password?
[01:51] <lukus001> No one know why my window hard disk wont mount properly?
[01:51] <chris449> hmm, anyone that remembers my problem from above, i chose to boot straight from the primary partition, and all it says is GRUB
[01:51] <chris449> not even loading stage something, it just says GRUB
[01:51] <KenSentMe> soheil: for problems with wine, most of the time you get them solved quicker at the #winehq channel
[01:51] <BlueEagle> lukus001: Which error message are you getting?
[01:52] <soheil> it yielded a couple of files,including strategy.exe
[01:52] <thoreauputic> !windowsdrives
[01:52] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[01:52] <Nightattack> jrib: i have it installed, here's my error btw http://paste.uni.cc/9483
[01:52] <tjm> Ubuntu sucks!
[01:52] <BlueEagle> chris449: does it say GRUB or GRUB>
[01:52] <mr3vil> tjm y?
[01:52] <chris449> the first one, it's not a grub prompt
[01:52] <KenSentMe> tjm: good for you
[01:52] <chris449> i can't type anything
[01:52] <lukus001> blueEagle, well i did the mount command from the guide but it wont leet me in i double click the drive and nothing happends
[01:52] <soheil> but wine doesn't execute strategy.exe
[01:53] <KenSentMe> soheil: like i said, try #winehq
[01:53] <lukus001> blueegale whereas before i did that, i got a error about it not being mounted
[01:53] <soheil> #wine
[01:53] <BlueEagle> chris449: Well then stage1 isn't properly installed. Did you use the livecd or the alternate install cd
[01:53] <jrib> Nightattack: does this suggestion work? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5246&highlight=enemy+territory+sound
[01:53] <BlueEagle> ?
[01:53] <BlueEagle> lukus001: I see. Which filesystem is on the partition in question?
[01:53] <Fracture_> does ubuntu have a 'recommended hardware' spec ?
[01:53] <lukus001> NTFS windows xp
[01:54] <jrib> Nightattack: some people are saying to just 'killall esd' before running the game, maybe that might work too
[01:54] <chris449> blueeagle: stage 1 sits in the MBR, bootmagic is in my MBR. Stage 2 is on the hdd, bootmagic selects the linux part of the hdd to boot from
[01:54] <BlueEagle> lukus001: try this in a terminal: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/DEVICENODE /mnt
[01:54] <BlueEagle> lukus001: you'll ofcourse need to change DEVICENODE to the device node of the partition (ie. hda1)
[01:54] <lukus001> change devicenode with hdc1?
[01:54] <KenSentMe> Fracture_: no it doesn't, but you can check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport if your hardware will work fine
[01:54] <lukus001> lol ^^
[01:55] <BlueEagle> chris449: Ahh, so you're using bootmagic to multiboot?
[01:55] <chris449> yes
[01:55] <chris449> sorry if that didn't come through earlier
[01:55] <tearfate> whats the different between kubuntu edubuntu and ubuntu?
[01:55] <BlueEagle> chris449: if so then you need to put stage1 on hdd as well.
[01:55] <chris449> o, how should i do that?
[01:55] <niekie> Hmm... now, how would I stop mounted drives from automatically appearing on the desktop?
[01:56] <BlueEagle> chris449: Are you using the livecd?
[01:56] <Nightattack> jrib: killall esd doesn't work, the suggestion gives me an error: 'permission denied' even with sudo
[01:56] <thoreauputic> tearfate: kubuntu - KDE desktop edubuntu - educational focus ubuntu - gnome desktop
[01:56] <niekie> If that is even possible.
[01:56] <chris449> not atm, ubuntu is on the hard drive
[01:56] <BlueEagle> chris449: Do you know if your network was properly detected when you booted from the live cd? (ie. did you try to browse the web from it?)
[01:56] <jrib> Nightattack: you mean: echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss   ?
[01:56] <Nightattack> jrib: yes
[01:57] <tearfate> theres no major different right?
[01:57] <chris449> i can't remember
[01:57] <chris449> but i'm not using the network from a live cd
[01:57] <jrib> Nightattack: do 'sudo -i', login, do the command, exit
[01:57] <thoreauputic> tearfate: all part of the same distribution
[01:57] <BlueEagle> chris449: I see. Well I will need you to boot from the live cd and then start an IRC client from it. Then I'll walk you trough fixing your GRUB from there.
[01:57] <jrib> Nightattack: note, I don't know what that actually does, it's just what the forums suggest in several places
[01:57] <chris449> blue eagle thanks
[01:57] <alek> when I run my comp, ubuntu asks me for login and pass. Can he login automaticly?
[01:57] <Nightattack> jrib: thanks jrib, that one work xD
[01:58] <tearfate> thoreauputic,i can find all the stuff in ubuntu right?
[01:58] <KenSentMe> tearfate: the difference are the desktops, Kubuntu uses KDE, Xubuntu Xfce and Ubuntu Gnome
[01:58] <thoreauputic> tearfate: in fact youcan have ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop installed at the same time in your system and choose which one to use on login
[01:58] <edgy> Hi, apt-get install ktranslator gives: E: Couldn't find package ktranslator though I can see there is a http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/kde/ktranslator, what's wrong please?
[01:58] <thoreauputic> tearfate: right
[01:58] <lukus001> BlueEgale, that didnt work either - same thign happen and it just doesnt respond.    The actuall error message i get is "error device is no removable" and error: could not execute pmount
[01:58] <Fracture_> KenSentMe: thanks
[01:58] <stray77> ive got kde, gnome and xfce all runnin on the same box
[01:58] <tearfate> that mean i have to dl all three to have all the feature?
[01:58] <KenSentMe> alek: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/desktop-tips.html
[01:58] <BlueEagle> edgy: using dapper or edgy?
[01:58] <edgy> BlueEagle: dapper
[01:59] <Mewshi> why haven't there been any updates for a while?
[01:59] <thoreauputic> tearfate: you can install them with synaptic or apt
[01:59] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell edgy about source-o-matic
[01:59] <tearfate> oh okie,nice thanks
[01:59] <BlueEagle> edgy: you need to add some repos to your sources.list.
[01:59] <thoreauputic> tearfate: for instance   sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[01:59] <BlueEagle> edgy: Please have a look at the url ubotu sendt you.
[01:59] <tearfate> okie
[01:59] <BlueEagle> edgy: the file goes to /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:00] <edgy> BlueEagle: I already have deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[02:00] <fblade> hey guys can anyhelp me my grub boot loader has messed up and i have lost the option to boot to windows
[02:00] <thoreauputic> tearfate: synaptic is the graphical installer app, or you can also use add/remove programs for most things
[02:00] <BlueEagle> edgy: Well it might be in the dedicated kde repos?
[02:00] <Tarandus> Hee hee, removed the check for external interface, and now it loads on startup, and is ready when I insert the card
[02:00] <c0nfidencal> hey all! hows going? uhm, i have a few questions! 1) which ftp client with fxp feature do u suggest? 2) u know... there was this app, with it u can add widgets like... whats the weaether in new york or something... 3) windows supports my monitor (its crappy one) - 1024x768 @ 85 Hz, but linux only @ 60 Hz, i know that i can reconfigure that.. uh xorg :) but can i edit it with hands? hm, guess thats all
[02:00] <tearfate> im new to all these stuff,i thinking to change to linux os
[02:00] <stray77> fblade, what do you wanna do?
[02:01] <tearfate> maybe i try that
[02:01] <BlueEagle> edgy: I can post you my sources.list if  you whish. I've got ktranslator avail with apt-get
[02:01] <fblade> get my boot loader back so i can boot into windows again
[02:01] <Tarandus> Only problem is, it prompts for the WPA key every time I insert the card and associate with an AP
[02:01] <c0nfidencal> ?\:
[02:01] <edgy> BlueEagle: is your system 64bits or 32bits?
[02:02] <BlueEagle> c0nfidencal: gftp, gkrellm, /etc/X11/xorg.conf or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:02] <Tarandus> Is there a way to store WPA keys so that the machine wouldn't ask anything when I enter a wireless network?
[02:02] <BlueEagle> edgy: I am running 32bit
[02:02] <Mewshi> why haven't there been any updates for a while?
[02:02] <stray77> fblade, boot from your xp cd into recovery mode, logon to your windows install, run fixmbr and bootcfg /rebuild
[02:02] <lukus001> BlueEagle, that didnt work either - same thing happens and it just doesnt respond.    The actuall error message i get is "error device is not removable" and "error: could not execute pmount"
[02:02] <fblade> will that add the option to my grub?
[02:02] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal   vsftp, conky , /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:03] <stray77> no it will remove grub
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> BlueEagle: thx, but that gkrellm ... no no no, maybe u know other? i used other one... :\ i remember it was @ repos too
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> thx richiefrich too :)
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> gonna check em all
[02:03] <KenSentMe> stray77: he wants to keep grub and be able to run windows from grub
[02:03] <richiefrich> conky is better imo
[02:03] <fblade> i would like it to have the option to boot to windows thorugh grub
[02:03] <richiefrich> u can do more
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> :P
[02:03] <fblade> how can i add windows to the boot list
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> bah i forgot.. there was good one
[02:03] <c0nfidencal> :|
[02:03] <BlueEagle> lukus001: which command did you execute? Ie. which device node did you use?
[02:04] <c0nfidencal> gonna check forum :) maybe i can find that post again
[02:04] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal  http://conky.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html
[02:04] <lukus001> Blueeagle?   i did what you list above and i used hdc1 which is my 40GB drive that fdisk lists
[02:04] <c0nfidencal> lemme check, thx:P
[02:04] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal thats conky.. u can use there  ~/.conkyrc there under the pics
[02:04] <BlueEagle> lukus001: ok. now try (in a terminal): ls /mnt
[02:04] <BlueEagle> lukus001: does it show your files?
[02:05] <c0nfidencal> :)
[02:05] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal thats what u remember?
[02:05] <edgy> BlueEagle: ok maybe it's sources.list but in my infinite wisdom to understand how things work, why would I need more than this line of deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse to be able to install ktranslator
[02:06] <lukus001> bash: /mnt: is a directory
[02:06] <BlueEagle> edgy: because there is a repo that is called deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-latest dapper main
[02:06] <c0nfidencal> richiefrich: dont think so actually ;|
[02:06] <c0nfidencal> that one was more stylish ^^
[02:06] <c0nfidencal> gonna let u know when i find, looking atm
[02:06] <richiefrich> ok
[02:07] <BlueEagle> edgy: and since ktranslator is a KDE package I would assume that is the repo in which you must look.
[02:07] <brush01uk> Greetings Everyone,  have a good day :-)
[02:07] <forngren> When I try to use "sudo grub-install /wantgrubhere" I get this: Format of install_device not recognized. Any ideas? (I'm trying to reinstall GRUB after a win install)
[02:07] <KenSentMe> brush01uk: same to you
[02:08] <ardchoille> ktranslator is in the universe repo
[02:08] <edgy> BlueEagle: but isn't http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/kde/ktranslator shows it's in the universe repo? if now how can I tell the real repo of the package?
[02:08] <BlueEagle> forngren: You'll need to chroot to the filesystem in which linux is installed.
[02:08] <lukus001> BlueEagle: all i get is bash: /mnt: is a directory
[02:08] <thoreauputic> !info ktranslator
[02:08] <ubotu> ktranslator: Translation program for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3-0ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 149 kB, installed size 720 kB
[02:08] <BlueEagle> lukus001: from: ls /mnt/
[02:08] <BlueEagle> lukus001: ?
[02:08] <brush01uk> hi ken, new to linux unbuntu yesterday
[02:09] <BlueEagle> forngren: First mount your root filesystem on /mnt/
[02:09] <forngren> BlueEagle: ok
[02:09] <justin_> Where does WINE keep "windows/programfiles" ?
[02:09] <WYSIWYG> if i execute rm -f /, that will EMPTY the active disk/partition, wont it?
[02:09] <lukus001> BlueEagle sorry never notice the ls : ls: /mnt/: Permission denied
[02:09] <BlueEagle> forngren: then mount any /usr/, /boot/, /var/ or other partitions you might have on their appropriate places in /mnt/
[02:09] <BlueEagle> lukus001: sudo ls /mnt
[02:09] <thoreauputic> WYSIWYG: wrong synatx, and a bad idea :)
[02:09] <ardchoille> WYSIWYG: Do not perform that command unless you want to trash the entire system
[02:10] <WYSIWYG> i want to clean a disk
[02:10] <WYSIWYG> how do i do that?
[02:10] <lukus001> BlueEagle ok that lists all my files :)
[02:10] <BlueEagle> wysiwyg: fdisk to remove any partitions then create any parittion(s) you'd like
[02:10] <richiefrich> WYSIWYG u want to del it?
[02:10] <ardchoille> WYSIWYG: Look into formatting the partition
[02:10] <fblade> would this boot windows ? title Windows root (hda1) chainloader +1 ,
[02:10] <BlueEagle> wysiwyg: then mk*fs to format the partition to the filesystem you would like.
[02:11] <c0nfidencal> richiefrich: screen http://img303.imageshack.us/img303/350/screenshot2cn.png but i cant find app name, maybe u know from this screen?
[02:11] <BlueEagle> lukus001: good. Now have you got an entry for /dev/hdc1 in /etc/fstab ?
[02:11] <richiefrich> fblade what is your  windoews partition ?
[02:11] <BlueEagle> forngren: you done mounting?
[02:11] <fblade> hda1
[02:11] <lukus001> BlueEgale I havnt put one in there so nope?
[02:11] <raveneye> justin_: on my machine wine keeps it in :~/.wine/drive_c
[02:11] <drpc> hi
[02:12] <c0nfidencal> hi
[02:12] <drpc> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[02:12] <justin_> raveneye: Ok, so lets say when I uninstall WINE - will it remove the files along with it ? - or will I need to --purge?
[02:12] <drpc> the same
[02:12] <thoreauputic> drpc: install build-essential
[02:12] <fblade> richefrich: sorry its hda1
[02:12] <ardchoille> !b-e
[02:12] <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!)
[02:12] <forngren> forngren: yes now I am, /mnt/grub, shall I mount home asmwell?
[02:12] <richiefrich> fblade no that wont...
[02:12] <WYSIWYG> ok thx ppl :)
[02:12] <fblade> what can i do to get it to work?
[02:12] <BlueEagle> forngren: You don't need /home
[02:12] <BlueEagle> forngren: now try this command: sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
[02:12] <forngren> ok
[02:12] <chris449> BlueEagle: remember me? is it possible to do it without being on irc off the live cd?
[02:13] <drpc> how i install
[02:13] <richiefrich> fblade u need this --> http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/1dPuCs70.html
[02:13] <BlueEagle> chris449: Well I am helping forngren with the exact same problem now.
[02:13] <BlueEagle> chris449: but being on IRC would definetly help.
[02:13] <raveneye> justin_ when you apt-get remove --purge the program settings in your homedir are not touched.
[02:13] <lukus001> BlueEagle: theres no hdc1 entry in fstab
[02:13] <thoreauputic> drpc:  sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:13] <chris449> o damn i haven't been reading
[02:13] <ardchoille> drpc: Which app are you looking for?
[02:13] <BlueEagle> forngren: did that work at all or do you get unknown flag ....?
[02:13] <thoreauputic> !docs > drpc
[02:13] <forngren> BlueEagle: replace /mnt/proc with my mount path?
[02:13] <raveneye> justin_: when you want to get rid of that you need to go into your homedir and rm -rf .wine
[02:13] <jatt> drpc: you have written the same problem many times. If installing build-essential and if `which gcc` shows you a compiler, probably the problem lies in your configure script. *pastbin* the whole output of your configure script.
[02:14] <BlueEagle> forngren: Did you not mount it to /mnt/?
[02:14] <fblade> richfrinch and that will work, i dont  need to make any changes do it?
[02:14] <fblade> i*
[02:14] <c0nfidencal> http://img303.imageshack.us/img303/350/screenshot2cn.png <- anyone knows this uhm... widget appz name? :p ^^
[02:14] <justin_> raveneye: Alright..
[02:14] <chris449> o did i forget to mention? the comp i'm fixing is not this one
[02:14] <richiefrich> fblade no thats for  hda1 windows
[02:14] <drpc> Package build-essential has no installation candidat
[02:14] <raveneye> yw justin_
[02:14] <justin_> raveneye: thnx
[02:14] <forngren> I mounted it in a subdir to /mnt/, using discs manager...
[02:14] <richiefrich> fblade thats on my parents box..  /me got them on linux w00t
[02:14] <jatt> uh
[02:14] <thoreauputic> drpc: then your apt aources are wrong
[02:14] <thoreauputic> *sources
[02:15] <BlueEagle> forngren: yes. if you mounted your / filesystem somwhere other than /mnt then replace it with the proc directory of your installed filesystem.
[02:15] <thoreauputic> drpc: is this a new ubuntu install?
[02:15] <drpc> 5.10
[02:15] <fblade> thanks
[02:15] <BlueEagle> forngren: now, did that work?
[02:15] <forngren> BlueEagle: it seemed to work, no errors atleast
[02:15] <thoreauputic> drpc: no, I mean is it recently installed? Have you changed the sources.list?
[02:15] <BlueEagle> forngren: ok, good.
[02:15] <drpc> yes
[02:15] <drpc> i changed
[02:16] <BlueEagle> forngren: now, is your filesystem on IDE disk(s) or sATA or SCSI disk(s)?
[02:16] <thoreauputic> drpc: why?
[02:16] <chris449> that's me on my other comp
[02:16] <thoreauputic> drpc: that's your problem right therer
[02:16] <drpc> ok
[02:16] <Shinzetsu> hey guys, ubuntu can read fat32 right?
[02:16] <drpc> can u send me one new
[02:16] <ucordes> is there a way to create a custom live cd /dvd ?
[02:16] <drpc> ?
[02:16] <thoreauputic> !sources
[02:16] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[02:16] <drpc> yes

[02:17] <unplugd> help? trying to open a .php3 file inside firefox. Firefox ask what to do with the file. How to run this file?
[02:17] <BlueEagle> forngren: Please answer my questions when I ask them. Is your filesystem on IDE disk(s) or SATA or SCSI disk(s)?
[02:17] <Shinzetsu> how do I wipe a harddrive and make a fat32 partition? Im going to make a ubuntu/winxp dualboot but I wanna backup my stuff
[02:17] <CarinArr> hey, i have a question about ldap.. I'm using ldap on my work machine. Now apparently they gave us all a new ca.cert last week, and I shouldn't be able to connect with the old ca.cert. However it works fine, so I'm wondering if my security settings are off somewhere.. I've got TLS_CACERT set up in my ldap.conf, does anyone know where else i could be going wrong?
[02:18] <BlueEagle> forngren: If you do not understand the questions please let me know. Don't try to skip ahead. :)
[02:18] <forngren> BlueEagle: ohh, sorry, I didn't see them, SATA/SDA6
[02:18] <ardchoille> !lamp > unplugd
[02:18] <drpc> man
[02:18] <chris559> i have ide drives, does that affect me differently?
[02:18] <BlueEagle> forngren: ok. Now run this command: sudo cp /dev/sda* /mnt/dev
[02:19] <drpc> i dont undrstand english good
[02:19] <BlueEagle> forngren: You'll need thoses deveice nodes.
[02:19] <lukus001> BlueEagle: I have nothing in Fstab for hdc1?   what do i need to add?
[02:19] <SirKillalot> hi, is there anybondy who knows how that frontend was called to easily configure compiz?
[02:19] <Shinzetsu> can I change a filesystem of a partition without formatting?
[02:19] <Shinzetsu> like transform it

[02:20] <snoops> SirKillalot gset-compiz but it's out of date as far as I'm aware
[02:20] <unplugd> ardcholille: what do u mean?
[02:20] <thoreauputic> !no
[02:20] <ubotu> Hvis du vil diskutere Ubuntu paa norsk, venligst gaa til #ubuntu-no. Takk!
[02:20] <c0nfidencal> uh, i gonna get back to live cd and check if all works, if so... gonna install new version of ubuntu ;) btw. how come sudo apt-get install xchat doesnt work? repos... maybe someone can share their repos, which has that xchat? :p
[02:20] <ardchoille> unplugd: read the pm that ubotu sent you
[02:20] <forngren> BlueEagle: cp: writing `/mnt/dev': No space left on device
[02:20] <BlueEagle> lukus001: /dev/DEVICENODE       /media/winxp    ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0
[02:20] <BlueEagle> lukus001: that's what I've got.
[02:20] <BlueEagle> forngren: oh?
[02:20] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal yes i dont know the name.. i dont use gnome/kde/xfce4   i use e16 = enlightenment  so i dont use  widgets.. sorry all ask someone that might know
[02:21] <BlueEagle> forngren: is your / partition full=
[02:21] <BlueEagle> ?
[02:21] <chris449> BlueEagle: i have my linux partition mounted and proc and dev bound to it, what now?
[02:21] <forngren> I'm on a livecd
[02:21] <BlueEagle> forngren: and did you substitude /mnt/dev with the path to the dev direcotry on your mounted linux system?
[02:22] <drpc> can u send me sources
[02:22] <forngren> Err, no
[02:22] <lukus001> BlueEgale, ok now thats saved, - how do i change its permissions currently i have 0 acccess? only owner:read
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> richiefrich: ok:P thx anyway, but uhm.. maybe u can check my other question? :P
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> that about xchat n repos
[02:22] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal  i was told the weather one was -->  gDesklets
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> YES
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> richiefrich: thx
[02:22] <unplugd> ardcholille: thanks, read it. Using ubuntu server w/lamp. How to configure the system to handle .php3 extention?
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> it is gDesklets ;P
[02:22] <c0nfidencal> i remember
[02:22] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal np man
[02:23] <BlueEagle> lukus001: a) did you change the mountpoint in your fstab from /media/winxxp? b) have you got a directory called /media/winxp?
[02:23] <xmoogle> hiya
[02:23] <c0nfidencal> hey
[02:23] <drpc> thoreauputi can u send me sources.list
[02:23] <lhds> i need a decent tv application other than tvtime and xawtv any suggestions _
[02:23] <BlueEagle> forngren: Well since you apperantly didn't mount it on /mnt/ as I suggested you will ofcourse need to change such directories to where your filesystem is mounted. :)
[02:23] <lukus001> BlueEagle : yes i can see it but i cant access it due to permission set only for admin and not my user
[02:23] <thoreauputic> drpc: mine would not help you - they are an australian mirror
[02:23] <BlueEagle> forngren: There was a reason why I suggested /mnt/ :)
[02:24] <BlueEagle> lukus001: that didn't answer my questions.
[02:24] <drpc> ok man
[02:24] <xmoogle> i was just wondering a couple things..you know the ubuntu 6.06 free cds? does it still come in a set of a livecd and an installer? and if there's a livecd still, does it come with xchat?
[02:24] <forngren> BlueEagle: damn it, I'm noobisch XP
[02:24] <unfun> !rpm
[02:24] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[02:24] <drpc> thanks for u help
[02:24] <thoreauputic> drpc: wait a few minutes - I'll see what I can do
[02:24] <richiefrich> c0nfidencal glad i could help
[02:24] <c0nfidencal> :)
[02:24] <c0nfidencal> k, askin again:P i gonna get back to live cd and check if all works, if so... gonna install new version of ubuntu ;) btw. how come sudo apt-get install xchat doesnt work? repos... maybe someone can share their repos, which has that xchat? :p
[02:24] <drpc> ok
[02:24] <lukus001> BlueEagle i have media/windows/   and there is a directory call that
[02:24] <BlueEagle> forngren: ok. so cp /dev/sda* /path/to/dev
[02:24] <chris559> BlueEagle: i have partition mounted with proc and dev bound to it. If i do a grub install from here, by default it will re-write the MBR, which is not what i want
[02:24] <BlueEagle> forngren: with a sudo in front.
[02:25] <unfun> Do I have to use an anti virus program when I use ubuntu?
[02:25] <xmoogle> unlikely unfun
[02:25] <BlueEagle> lukus001: sudo umount /dev/DEVICENODE && sudo mount /media/windows
[02:25] <BlueEagle> lukus001: then your /media/windows should be accessible to your user
[02:25] <xmoogle> there's not really linux viruses beyond proof of concept ones that seem to ask your permission to infect things..
[02:25] <forngren> BlueEagle: /path/to/dev?
[02:25] <BlueEagle> chris559: have you chroot-ed into the filesystem.
[02:25] <BlueEagle> ?
[02:26] <unfun> But is there malware and such like that?
[02:26] <BlueEagle> forngren: yes. You will need to susbstitute that to the dev directory on the mounted linux file system.
[02:26] <chris559> BlueEagle: i knew i forgot something
[02:26] <forngren> ok
[02:26] <lukus001> BlueEagle, Thanks it all works now <3
[02:26] <BlueEagle> forngren: since you didn't mount on /mnt/ I'll use /path/to/ instead.
[02:26] <xmoogle> unfun, it's very difficult for malware to work on linux because of the security model, ie, you don't run as root/admin so things can't automatically install n go overwriting system files. there *are* the occasional rootkits around, but not really
[02:26] <BlueEagle> chris559: and don't run grub-install but just grub
[02:27] <xmoogle> there's free software to scan for rootkits too
[02:27] <xmoogle> if you're paranoid
[02:27] <ardchoille> unfun: Did you install libapache2-mod-php5 and php5-mysql ?
[02:27] <unfun> haha
[02:27] <unfun> thanks
[02:27] <unfun> :)
[02:27] <AnAmiC> hey there, one question: what IM Client for linux is most similar to miranda?
[02:27] <lhds> whats root kits_
[02:27] <BlueEagle> chris559: then root(hdX,Y) and setup(hdX,Y) where X and Y represents the disk number and parititon number of your root filesystem (assuming you haven't got a separate /boot parition)
[02:27] <Gargoyle> miranda...
[02:27] <c0nfidencal> anyone? ;o
[02:28] <BlueEagle> chris559: remember that GRUB counts from 0
[02:28] <Gargoyle> is there any?  Miranda is so powerful.
[02:28] <ardchoille> unplugd: The link ubotu sent you tells yo how to install php and how to troubleshoot it
[02:28] <BlueEagle> chris559: so /dev/hdb4 will be (hd1,3)
[02:28] <xmoogle> lhds, a set of binaries, usually installed via some software exploit, that allow a remote user (preferably root) access to your system
[02:28] <AnAmiC> miranda does not work under linux does it?
[02:28] <BlueEagle> forngren: now where were we?
[02:28] <xmoogle> AnAmiC, no
[02:28] <oskude> c0nfidencal: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=xchat&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[02:28] <AnAmiC> too bad ^^
[02:28] <trygg> animal_: kopote is pretty close.
[02:28] <BlueEagle> forngren: ahh did you get the sd* device nodes copied yet?
[02:28] <xmoogle> AnAmiC, apparently it might under wine though
[02:28] <trygg> whops, AnAmiC
[02:28] <c0nfidencal> o :) oskude: thx
[02:29] <unplugd> Can sombody help? I'm using ubuntu server w/lamp. How to configure the system to handle .php3 extention?
[02:29] <xmoogle> AnAmiC, some people've apparently got it running that way
[02:29] <brush01uk> dccdcc
[02:29] <lhds> what scanner y suggest_
[02:29] <chris559> BlueEagle: the partition i'm using is hda4, so yeh thatnks. except trouble is my chroot isn't working
[02:29] <ardchoille> unplugd: The link ubotu sent you tells you how to fix that
[02:29] <AnAmiC> well wine is something I need to setup anyway, so why not now ^^
[02:29] <BlueEagle> chris559: sudo chroot /path/to/rootfs/ /bin/bash
[02:29] <AnAmiC> k, thx!
[02:29] <stray77> unplugd, vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[02:29] <stray77> and change DirectoryIndex to
[02:30] <raveneye> xmoogle edit your /etc/apt/sources.list comment everything out exept the cd line then sudo apt-get update and start synaptic
[02:30] <xmoogle> lhds, i rarely bother with root kit scanners, you could have a search through debian packages or the ubuntu repositories for software that mentions "rootkits" or "root kits" in the description?
[02:30] <stray77> [...] DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi index.php index.php3 index.pl index.xhtml[...] 
[02:30] <stray77> minus the [...]  of course
[02:30] <BlueEagle> chris559: so then you'd use root(hd0,3) and setup(hd0,3)
[02:30] <xmoogle> raveneye, why would i want to do that? i'm not on ubuntu right now, i'm just wanting to know what software comes on the livecd
[02:30] <BlueEagle> chris559: then bootmagic should be chainloading grub (in theory atleast)
[02:30] <thoreauputic> drpc:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20761
[02:31] <xmoogle> well specifically i want to know if it comes with xchat and an IM client that supports msn :)
[02:31] <xmoogle> i know there should be firefox n openoffice already
[02:31] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: firefox, thunderbird, openoffice, irc clients, msn clients, icq clients, a whole bunch of servers, gnome is the windowmanager on it. What else do you want to know?
[02:31] <stray77> chris559, another option is to use windows boot and a proggy called bootpart
[02:31] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: ofcourse there is a whole array of mediaplayers provided.
[02:31] <drpc> thoreauputic thanks man
[02:32] <stray77> but stick with grub if you can get it workin
[02:32] <thoreauputic> drpc: that list should work OK
[02:32] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: and if it isn't on the live cd it's probably in the repos. :)
[02:32] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, thank you :) i was getting a friend with a screwed windows installation to order some discs so she has a workable backup system, wanted to make sure she'd be properly equipped :)
[02:32] <drpc> ok
[02:32] <drpc> :)
[02:32] <drpc> i try and i will back if not work
[02:32] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, this friend is very non-geeky, i don't know if i'll be able to get her to do an actual harddrive install
[02:32] <BlueEagle> forngren: you still here?
[02:32] <thoreauputic> drpc: don't foget to run apdate
[02:32] <drpc> thnks for u help
[02:32] <drpc> ok
[02:32] <chris559> stray77: thanks but that sound like a whole lot more learning
[02:32] <thoreauputic> drpc: I mean update
[02:32] <raveneye> xmoogle: I don't know if it comes with xchat but gaim is on the livecd ant that supports both irc and msn (spit).
[02:33] <CarinArr> anyone know anything about ldap?
[02:33] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: Does she use a webcam on a regular basis? If so you'll not win her over as webcam support in linux is still quite miserable. :/
[02:33] <unfun> !rpm
[02:33] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[02:33] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: ofcourse it depends somewhat on the webcam in question...
[02:33] <thoreauputic> drpc: ah - that list is for dapper, not 5.10
[02:33] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: not sure if any msn clients support webcams as of yet.
[02:34] <thoreauputic> drpc: if you have 5.10 you need to change all "dapper" to "breezy"
[02:34] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, true, and amsn supports webcams i think..certainly supports recieving them anyway
[02:34] <thoreauputic> drpc: did you read that?
[02:34] <tuxtux> reboot
[02:34] <raveneye> kopete seems to support webcam but then i'd install Kubuntu instead.
[02:34] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: :)
[02:34] <\sh> moins
[02:35] <\sh> does anyone has a HP DL360 G4P server with Compaq SmartArray P600 SAS Controller ?
[02:35] <BlueEagle> working at home is the best. :)
[02:35] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, lucky you, i have to smoke outside here :)
[02:36] <xmoogle> though i don't work right now, so i'm at home at least..lol
[02:36] <stray77> chris559, check this out ->http://technoraj.wordpress.com/2006/08/02/restoring-grub-in-drapper-drake-ubuntu-606/
[02:36] <xmoogle> hehe
[02:36] <raveneye> the smoke and coffee/tea bit is verry tempting tho.
[02:36] <BlueEagle> raveneye: purring is no prerequisite for me scratching someone behind their ear. :p
[02:36] <chris449> stray77: thanks
[02:36] <xmoogle> i'm actually about to switch to ubuntu
[02:37] <xmoogle> i've got annoyed with some of freebsd's quirks
[02:37] <BlueEagle> stray77: remember that he doesn't want grub on the MBR
[02:37] <raveneye> lol BlueEagle i would not sugest scratching behind my ear if i am not purring. Things might get ugly verry fast. >:)
[02:37] <xmoogle> so since that made me want to go back to some form of linux anyway, and i like most distros derived from debian...thought i'd give ubuntu a try :)
[02:37] <unfun> Wich linux distrubution is the best one?
[02:37] <chris449> BlueEagle: something very odd happened
[02:37] <oskude> unfun: ubuntu, of course!
[02:37] <thoreauputic> unfun: for what?
[02:37] <xmoogle> unfun, whichever you think is for the purposes you want
[02:37] <ardchoille> unfun: The only person who can answer that is you.
[02:37] <Skaag> I have a problem with my Ubuntu's "Sound" preferences panel, I select my Altec Lansing USB Speakers, in the drop-down, I close the panel, open it, and it's on the Intel ICH6 sound card again...! I don't want to disable the Intel in the Bios just to use the USB speakers. Is there a workaround?
[02:38] <dsas> \sh: Someone by the name of ScislaC was in here a couple of days ago with a SAS raid, no idea what kind though.
[02:38] <chris449> BlueEagle: i selected the linux option in bootmagic, and then it literally ran grub
[02:38] <inv_Arp> unfun: distrowatch.com
[02:38] <BlueEagle> chris449: it will.
[02:38] <xmoogle> aren't we giving philosophical sounding answers?
[02:38] <BlueEagle> chris449: now if you don't wan the bootmenu (which you do) you can set the timeout to 0 in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:38] <\sh> dsas: hmmm...had he problems with it and grub?
[02:39] <chris449> BlueEagle: ah, and it will only run ubuntu then? and i use bootmagic to run the rest?
[02:39] <doublehp> I have got "*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption " problem with nearly all applications; how can I solve this in a generic way ?
[02:39] <BlueEagle> chris449: that is correct. You can also remove the windowsXP option from menu.lst
[02:39] <xmoogle> ooh, um, i assume that if my friend's computer is hooked up to a router (which provides net access n presumably does the normal dhcp thing), booting ubuntu'll set her up for net access all automatically?
[02:39] <dsas> \sh: He was asking about a kernel panic
[02:39] <rkd> xmoogle: it should do, yeah
[02:39] <thoreauputic> xmoogle: should do , yes
[02:40] <BlueEagle> chris449: I do recomend having the boot menu so you can run different kernels and safemode if you once get a kernel that doesn't work properly.
[02:40] <xmoogle> yay
[02:40] <St0n3-C0l> well....is there any KEY assigned to taking a screenshot on mplayer ?
[02:40] <xmoogle> any sensible OS does... does windows do that yet?
[02:40] <\sh> dsas: oh different problem :)
[02:40] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: it will provided that her network card is automatically detected. (most are)
[02:40] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, i was working under the assumption of ethernet cards usually working fine :)
[02:40] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: windows doesn't provide a livecd afaik. :p
[02:40] <thoreauputic> xmoogle: it does - but I'm not sure if that needs config on windows
[02:40] <chris449> BlueEagle: yeh i might just leave it as is, i can't fit anything else on this harddrive anyway
[02:41] <doublehp> St0n3-C0l: no way, mplayer default uses Xv; if you want to try screenshots, try using option '-vo x11'
[02:41] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, you can make them though! apparently
[02:41] <dsas> \sh: ok, good luck with yours :)
[02:41] <chris449> BlueEagle: thanks for ur help i'm off to bed
[02:41] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: and assumptions are the root of most relationship breakups.
[02:41] <St0n3-C0l> doublehp: and with what key I'll be able to take screenshots ?
[02:41] <doublehp> console tools like "scrot"
[02:42] <raveneye> No xmoogle they are not it are the reactions on the assumptions.
[02:42] <thoreauputic> BlueEagle: especially assumptions about assumptions ;)
[02:42] <xmoogle> BlueEagle, my computer won't leave me, it wuvs me! hehe actually built by my ex for my 21st birthday..
[02:42] <ad> instead of dd if i cloned my disk to move it to a new one - what would happen?
[02:42] <ardchoille> St0n3-C0l: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=223758
[02:42] <BlueEagle> xmoogle: that's because your boyfriend assumes more than your puter does. :p Should we take this to #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps? :p
[02:43] <St0n3-C0l> thankx alot
[02:43] <Skaag> I have a problem with my Ubuntu's "Sound" preferences panel, I select my Altec Lansing USB Speakers, in the drop-down, I close the panel, open it, and it's on the Intel ICH6 sound card again...! I don't want to disable the Intel in the Bios just to use the USB speakers. Is there a workaround?
[02:43] <raveneye> tea ready smoke built. let the purring commence.
[02:43] <ad> anyone moved installation to a new disk using drive cloning (BootIT NG) ?
[02:44] <ardchoille> ad: I use partimage for that, it works well.
[02:44] <ardchoille> !info partimage
[02:44] <ubotu> partimage: backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-14 (dapper), package size 261 kB, installed size 936 kB
[02:44] <ad> ard: cool, how much reconfig did u have to do?
[02:44] <BlueEagle> raveneye: you build a fire. You roll a smoke/cigarette. And let's take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:44] <murif> hey, what are the hotplug subsystems?
[02:45] <ardchoille> ad: None. But you might want to read the docs for it as there are diff options
[02:45] <ad> ard: so in theory if i copied my whole installation bitperfect to a new drive it would work?
[02:46] <ardchoille> ad: I have 11 machines and I install Ubuntu on one, use partimage to make a clone of the partitions, take the clone to other pc's and use partimage to copy them over. Works great.
[02:47] <ad> ard: amazing, i thought there would be device conflicts etc?
[02:47] <ardchoille> ad: You may need to tweak things for hardware on the new boxes, but it should work, yes
[02:47] <doublehp> ardchoille: take care with hostnames, and SSH server keys
[02:47] <BlueEagle> ad: udev is your friend.
[02:47] <apollo13> hi, i have got a little question: which architecture to choose if i want install the ubuntu server edition on an intel pentium 64 bit system, amd64 or am i mistaken?
[02:47] <ad> !udev
[02:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:47] <ad> blueEagle: udev?
[02:49] <AlexC_> Hey,
[02:49] <BlueEagle> ad: It is the program that handles your devices.
[02:49] <AlexC_> Are the forums down for ubuntu?
[02:49] <BlueEagle> ad: well device nodes.
[02:49] <BlueEagle> ad: the kernel is the one handling the devices.
[02:49] <pseudomorph> hi, i have a problem where my /home partition is reporting as full, when i check the properties of the drive in nautilus it shows that 1000+ files take up 87Mb or so and only a few 100k of space left. is it possible the rest of the space is taken in hidden files/folders that I can't see? any help appriciated.
[02:50] <BlueEagle> ad: However in the earlier days (with static /dev directory) device "conflicts" (read: missing nodes) were more common.
[02:50] <ad> blue: gotcha, reading the faq, cheers
[02:50] <c0nfidencal> :)
[02:50] <raveneye> pseudomorph try df -h
[02:50] <c0nfidencal> where was that xorg.conf file?
[02:50] <BlueEagle> pseudomorph: and how big is your /home partition?
[02:51] <ardchoille> c0nfidencal: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:51] <BlueEagle> pseudomorph: and mount (to check that your /home partition is mounted in the right place)
[02:51] <pseudomorph> raveneye: shows up 100% full, problem is i cant find what is using the space
[02:51] <doublehp> I have got "*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption " problem with nearly all applications; how can I solve this in a generic way ?
[02:51] <raveneye> ok cd to /home/yourname and run du -h its not entirely reliable but it should give you some clues as to where the problem resides
[02:52] <raveneye> ow sorry that last one was for pseudomorph
[02:52] <neutrinomass> doublehp: Ouch.... is this with all apps ?
[02:52] <doublehp> neutrinomass: several
[02:53] <neutrinomass> doublehp: Dapper by upgrade ?
[02:53] <doublehp> neutrinomass: stil breezy (?)
[02:53] <drpc> thoreauputic thanks man alot alot alot it install now
[02:53] <doublehp> but I uncommented some lines in sources
[02:53] <drpc> :)
[02:53] <neutrinomass> doublehp: Um... not sure what could be wrong :-/ That's usually a coding error ...
[02:54] <neutrinomass> doublehp: I would try "sudo aptitude reinstall glibc" but I'm not sure it will help ... is it up to date ?
[02:54] <doublehp> neutrinomass: how the hell upgrade to a not freezing glibc ? I have had this bug on many distros ... and generic fix is: upgrade glibc !
[02:54] <pseudomorph> raveneye: i was in /home when i ran it first time, shows dev/hada3 (mounted as /home) is 100% is there any way of getting a listing of all files in a tree under a directory?
[02:54] <ad> blueeagle: so udev is standard in dapper and it will do most of the work for me?
[02:54] <doublehp> neutrinomass: updated yesterday and this morning
[02:55] <raveneye> pseudomorph it should default show you everything. hmmmm hang on a min.
[02:55] <rkd> pseudomorph: du -h --max-depth=1 ~
[02:55] <BlueEagle> ad: udev will handle the device nodes. You will still need to make sure that the kernel has got drivers for all your devices. (by default it has got support for nearly everything)
[02:55] <rkd> pseudomorph: that's du, not df
[02:56] <neutrinomass> doublehp: I've never had this problem :-/ It could be a gcc bug as well, I'm not sure....
[02:56] <ad> BlueEagle: thanx, still used to windows; it's great when things just work isn't it? :-)
[02:56] <doublehp> neutrinomass: actually Firefox 1.5 (after I upgraded FF because original was already buggy )
[02:56] <nraider> i wonder if someone can help me with a question i have about Eye Of Gnome
[02:56] <pseudomorph> rkd cheers, strange thing is the largest file it shows up is about 9.5Mb
[02:56] <freakabcd> hi all
[02:57] <erUSUL> !anybody > nraider
[02:57] <freakabcd> where can i download the dapper livecd ?
[02:57] <freakabcd> i can;t seem to find a list of mirrors carrying the livecd iso
[02:57] <AlexC_> Are the forums down for ubuntu?
[02:57] <neutrinomass> doublehp: Well, try http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash to get a backtrace of a program that crashes
[02:57] <erUSUL> freakabcd: www.ubuntu.com >> download
[02:57] <ardchoille> AlexC_: Apparently
[02:57] <erUSUL> freakabcd: it is labeled desktop cd
[02:57] <BlueEagle> ad: in most cases ubuntu "will just work"(tm), but sometimes with some hardware you'll just need to fiddle. Also Windows makes some assumptions and do rely on "generic" drivers to "just work". (ie. the fact that it's working doesn't mean that it's working as it's supposed to)
[02:58] <rkd> pseudomorph: odd
[02:58] <freakabcd> erUSUL, i meant the LiveCD
[02:58] <torpor> is there any way to get gcc 4.1 for ubuntu?
[02:58] <freakabcd> is that the same as the desktopcd ? i doubt it. thats the install disk
[02:58] <rkd> pseudomorph: du -m --max-depth=1 ~ | sort -n just to make sure
[02:58] <nraider> i can't get Eye Of Gnome to show the 2nd,3rd, etc pages of a multiple page tiff file, am i just being stupid and overlooking something?
[02:58] <torpor> i'm on dapper drake - is it possible to get the gcc-4.1 package from edgy installed?
[02:58] <gerl> hi!
[02:58] <doublehp> neutrinomass: MALLOC_CHECK_=0 didnt help
[02:58] <neutrinomass> torpor: Why ?
[02:59] <drpc> every thing is working now thanks
[02:59] <BlueEagle> ad: I know a guy who ran on generic ide drivers for a year and always complained about his puter being slow. I keept asking him if he had the latest drivers installed and he always replied yes. So once I did a reinstall for him and used the right IDE drivers and suddenly he had DMA working on his disks and teh puter just flew. :)
[02:59] <rkd> pseudomorph: du -m --max-depth=2 /home | sort -n as well
[02:59] <Skaag> I heard a team was assembled to answer questions about ubuntu?
[02:59] <torpor> neutrinomass, coz i'm trying to build a cross-compiler for my ARM board, and it requires gcc > 4.0 to build glibc ..
[02:59] <Skaag> how do I post questions for the new team?
[02:59] <tuxtux> ciao
[02:59] <BlueEagle> ..and back to -offtopic I go. :/
[02:59] <jonass> xgl is not working properly (no window toolbar) with kernel 2.6.15-26, but with -23 it is
[02:59] <pseudomorph> rkd i did manage to acciently fill /home with a misdirected torrent however i moved the file to a different partition, could this be causing and issue, on a side note in gnome system administration disks will no longer load either...
[02:59] <neutrinomass> doublehp: It could be a bug in some other library, not glibc (I don't really think it is anyway)- the backtrace may help to pinpoint the library
[02:59] <torpor> so how about it, anyone know where i can get a gcc-4.1 package for dapper?
[03:00] <BlueEagle> jonass: #ubuntu-xgl please
[03:00] <gerl> my ubuntu 6.06 give me an error enabling dma. The chipset is VIA (VT82xxx). What can I do?
[03:00] <jonass> BlueEagle: thx
[03:00] <M_Fatih> hi there, i have a problem with my mime-type database. when i try to "open with other application" for my php files, i'm selecting my different application from list (or input) gnome says "Could not add application to the application database" and i can't run my .php files from nautilus launcher mechanism. i want to change my default application for .php files. it runs with bluefish. i want to change it to quanta plus. i want to run my php files with quan
[03:00] <M_Fatih> ta when i'm doubleclicking.. what this error, how can i fix this? (sorry my english. bad language :( )
[03:00] <BlueEagle> jonass: np. :)
[03:00] <rkd> pseudomorph: very odd
[03:01] <jonass> how can i remove unused packages? i installed amaroK (kde libs were required), but after uninstalled amaroK the kde libs are still there
[03:01] <jatt> jonass: debfoster
[03:01] <raveneye> pseudomorph are you by any chance using gtk-gnutella?
[03:01] <jatt> jonass: and deborphan
[03:01] <pseudomorph> rkd it's got me... i'm still learning the ins and outs of the debian/ubuntu file system so it's wholely possivle i've done something stupid
[03:02] <jatt> jonass: or aptitude
[03:02] <pseudomorph> raveneye nup, just using azureus atm
[03:02] <doublehp> neutrinomass: MALLOC_CHECK_=0 DOES help (mistake was that I forgot the trailing '_'  )
[03:05] <freakabcd> whats the difference between 6.06 LTS and 6.06.1 LTS ?
[03:05] <anonymeeee> I need to edit my smb.conf file and it keeps telling me not authorized
[03:05] <anonymeeee> sudo -e smb.conf   right?
[03:06] <jumper> hi, i use ubntu dapper drake and i have a problem with kino 0.8.0. when i import a video in DV AVI TYPE 1/2 form my minidv cam, kino crash with this error: "KIno experienced segmentation fault, Dumping stack from the offending thread" Help me
[03:06] <freakabcd> some important bugfixes warranted a minor release? cos the mirror i'm going to get it from has only 6.06 :(
[03:06] <[b] urk> freakabcd, not much difference, if you do regular updates on a 6.06 you'll have a 6.06.1
[03:06] <oskude> anonymeeee: more like: sudo nano smb.conf
[03:06] <anonymeeee> nano?  that's a new one
[03:06] <pseudomorph> oh well, might spend some of tomorrow evening reformatting, was feeling the need of removing that useless windows partition anyway
[03:06] <[b] urk> freakabcd, run:  lsb_release -a
[03:06] <freakabcd> [b] urk, ok. because i wanted to try it on my friend's laptop where _breezy_ live cd fails to load
[03:07] <oskude> anonymeeee: then use a text editor to your liking...
[03:07] <_Indy_> Hello. I need a good, X, source editor other than Gedit.
[03:07] <jatt> _Indy_: emacs
[03:07] <Rookie-> Vim
[03:07] <CheetahMk2> nano
[03:07] <anonymeeee> Thank you
[03:07] <CheetahMk2> oh wait, nano isn't x
[03:07] <due> kate! :D
[03:07] <anonymeeee> I guess it defaults to pico?
[03:07] <Rookie-> vim is the best editor you can find ...
[03:07] <_Indy_> Rookie-:  a good, X, source editor
[03:08] <[b] urk> emacs
[03:08] <oskude> _Indy_: i like kate atm, even thou their "tabs" suck (and is a plugin :/)
[03:08] <anonymeeee> I'm hearing more about emacs
[03:08] <CheetahMk2> It goes down to pico, but then has an int overflow back to emacs
[03:08] <_Indy_> CheetahMk2:  a good, X, source editor
[03:08] <_Indy_> oskude: ok
[03:08] <pseudomorph> rkd, raveneye, thanks for your help
[03:08] <oskude> _Indy_: i changed from bluefish...
[03:08] <anonymeeee> you can develop macros for emacs?
[03:09] <jatt> anonymeeee: sure
[03:09] <_Indy_> jatt: I don't want to install xemacs. It is a vary memory-requiring package.
[03:09] <CheetahMk2> you can surf the net in emacs
[03:09] <_Indy_> * very
[03:09] <_Indy_> Does anyone have Komodo?
[03:09] <CheetahMk2> "EMACs is a perfectly fine operating system, all that it lacks is a decent text editor"
[03:09] <jatt> anonymeeee: there's an entry in the emacs manual for that
[03:10] <jatt> _Indy_: xemacs is different than emacs
[03:10] <_Indy_> I know.
[03:10] <_Indy_> emacs is not X
[03:10] <_Indy_> And I want an X source editor.
[03:10] <pseudomorph> rkd is it possible it's hiding in the root .Trash??
[03:10] <jatt> _Indy_: the X in XEmacs has nothing to do with the X Window System
[03:10] <_Indy_> is emacs console or X ?
[03:10] <jatt> _Indy_: emacs and xemacs are different programs. And emacs runs on the X Windows System
[03:10] <jatt> _Indy_: both
[03:11] <_Indy_> ok
[03:11] <_Indy_> how do I start emacs?
[03:11] <CarinArr> ;)
[03:11] <_Indy_> emacs is preinstalled in my system
[03:11] <jatt> _Indy_: typing emacs
[03:11] <CarinArr> you type "emacs" in console..
[03:11] <_Indy_> emacs is not preinstalled in my system :P
[03:11] <rixxon> does the livecd use grub?
[03:12] <rixxon> _Indy_, apt-cache search emacs
[03:12] <_Indy_> sudo apt-get install emacs
[03:12] <_Indy_> I executed the command above.
[03:13] <pseudomorph> whoot! there it was.
[03:13] <rixxon> there are many different emacs versions in the repos
[03:13] <jatt> _Indy_: AFAIK the package is called emacs21
[03:13] <_Indy_> Has anyone ever tried Komodo?
[03:13] <_Indy_> jatt: ok
[03:13] <_Indy_> The following extra packages will be installed:
[03:13] <_Indy_>   emacs21 emacs21-bin-common emacs21-common emacsen-common xaw3dg
[03:13] <jatt> _Indy_: yes that's ok
[03:13] <_Indy_> ok
[03:14] <naga44> how can i install ubuntu without gnome or kde?
[03:14] <rixxon> does livecd use grub?
[03:14] <_Indy_> naga44: install ubuntu, and remove Gnome
[03:14] <naga44> bah..
[03:14] <oskude> naga44: install xubuntu or server...
[03:15] <naga44> mabye xubuntu and remove xfce?
[03:15] <_Indy_> yes, do that
[03:16] <raveneye> naga: you could even download the alternate install iso and preform a minimal install (just textmode)
[03:17] <naga44> raveneye...would that come with ndiswrapper?
[03:17] <epla> ubot-it: mp3
[03:18] <raveneye> naga: dunno.
[03:19] <tRSS> sorry if this a n00b question, but I would like to compile (k)ubuntu on my pocket pc phone. is it possible?
[03:19] <naga44> so in the directory of ubuntu downloads its the "alternate" one?
[03:19] <raveneye> aye naga that is the one.
[03:20] <jatt> tRSS: I doubt it. Which are the hardware specifications of your "pocket pc phone"?
[03:20] <tRSS> i can see it has intel pxa270 processor
[03:20] <tRSS> 2GB SD Card
[03:21] <picasso> I just tried to upgrade 5.10 -> 6.06 w/ update-manager, and i get "Could not calculate the upgrade"
[03:21] <neutrinomass> doublehp: Sorry - what is that MALLOC_CHECK ?
[03:21] <naga44> what is the alternate cd?
[03:21] <picasso> A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrazde. Please report this as a bug.
[03:22] <picasso> does anyone know what could cause this?
[03:22] <Toran> is there a tool like gspot for linux?
[03:22] <jatt> tRSS: ubuntu doesn't support such processor so I doubt it will always compile ubuntu source packages.
[03:23] <Toran> gspot, as in the tool to display info about video files
[03:23] <raveneye> picasso did you try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:23] <jatt> tRSS: *maybe* gcc (and the toolchain) can be configured to crosscompile to that processor, so you can compile your packages on your pc and upload them to your pc phone
[03:23] <tRSS> hmm. may be i can start by compiling the kernel itself on this processor. i just need a starting point.
[03:23] <picasso> hm
[03:23] <selinuxium_> hi all, how do i copy a file to a Windows machine via the command line?
[03:24] <due> selinuxium_: scp
[03:24] <picasso> raveneye: im up-to-date except for kernel
[03:24] <picasso> (bc i didnt want to recompile my wireless stuff)
[03:24] <selinuxium_> due: that wil only work if ssh is running on the windows server. Is there not a sambe way?
[03:24] <picasso> but sure, i'll do this first.
[03:24] <selinuxium_> s/sambe/samba
[03:25] <doublehp> neutrinomass: Gentoo's solution against this bug :)
[03:25] <picasso> raveneye: do i need to *boot* the new kernel before upgrade? hopefully not?
[03:26] <gotmilk> the wierdest thing, ive just installed breezy first part of my screen is ok, about upto where the word thing starts in this sentence but then the rest is blurry and like scrolling
[03:26] <raveneye> picasso: eh did you tell apt where to find the dapper repositories? are you up to date on 5.10 or 6.06?
[03:26] <picasso> 5.10
[03:26] <picasso> was using the GUI button to upgrade to 6.06
[03:26] <picasso> but it restored me previous state when it failed
[03:27] <anonymeeee>  how do I get root access in konsole?
[03:27] <ardchoille> anonymeeee: sudo
[03:27] <siriusly> su or sudo then password
[03:27] <ardchoille> anonymeeee: sudo <command>, it will ask for a password, use your suer password
[03:28] <anonymeeee> sudo gives me a bunch of parameters that I don't recognize
[03:28] <neutrinomass> doublehp: What uses that variable? Heh, I've never heard of it before (and i've used gentoo )
[03:28] <raveneye> ok picasso what you can do is edit your sources.list in /etc/apt/ and point everything to dapper repositories then do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade... I must say i never tried that on an ubuntu system but debian works that way so i see no reason why it should fail in ubuntu.
[03:28] <M_Fatih> hi there, i have a problem with my mime-type database. when i try to "open with other application" for my php files, i'm selecting my different application from list (or input) gnome says "Could not add application to the application database" and i can't run my .php files from nautilus launcher mechanism. i want to change my default application for .php files. it runs with bluefish. i want to change it to quanta plus. i want to run my php files with quan
[03:28] <M_Fatih> ta when i'm doubleclicking.. what this error, how can i fix this? (sorry my english. bad language :( )
[03:29] <XeQtoR> does Ubuntu has a divx codec build in?
[03:29] <doublehp> neutrinomass: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81255 :) all Skype users known this; for FireFox on ubuntu, I have binded the desktop icon to a personal script doing: export MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ; firefox $1
[03:29] <anonymeeee> how do I restart samba?
[03:29] <rcklmk> @XeQtoR nope

[03:30] <neutrinomass> doublehp: ty :) I'll read up on it
[03:30] <jungsonn> hi all
[03:30] <doublehp> neutrinomass: I am now looking for a way to declare this variable for the whole machine, so that all users can inherit this fix, and also for all applications (OOo also bugs); which /etc/??? would help ?
[03:30] <richiefrich> anonymeeee --> /etc/init.d/samba restart ?
[03:30] <anonymeeee> damn sticky business
[03:30] <raveneye> anonymeeee: to get a root terminal you use sudo -i. if you want to use su you first need to sudo passwd root
[03:31] <dverzolla> anyone knows about fetchmail? I'm getting the messages, but, where the program is sending my messages?
[03:31] <bjames> does anyone know of a tutorial online that would tell me how to set up portaudio with kdevelop?
[03:31] <anonymeeee> thank you raveneye!
[03:31] <XeQtoR> is it possible for a linux newb to add a divx codec to ubuntu?
[03:31] <jungsonn> so i have a root question: im trying to login as root into gnome, but to no avail. I checked the tab security under startup, en made sure root is allowed, but i cannot login. anyone an idea? i really need root.
[03:31] <ardchoille> raveneye: Please don't tell people how to enable the root account. Ot os not supported config and can cause problems later.
[03:31] <richiefrich> dverzolla u need something like procmail
[03:31] <richiefrich> dverzolla to sort the mail
[03:31] <richiefrich> dverzolla   i use getmail..
[03:32] <dverzolla> richiefrich, getmail? they work with imap?
[03:32] <richiefrich> yes
[03:32] <ardchoille> !root > jungsonn
[03:32] <neutrinomass> doublehp: I think it's /etc/environment
[03:32] <raveneye> ardchoille: i havent had any problems with activating my root account so far...
[03:32] <murif> what are the hotplug subsystems?
[03:32] <dverzolla> richiefrich, I will see
[03:32] <ardchoille> !worksforme > raveneye
[03:32] <trygg> What do i type to reload my fstab?
[03:32] <bjames> does anyone here use portaudio???
[03:33] <richiefrich> i have  postfix.. procmail. getmail. courier-imap. freepopsd. authdaemond.
[03:33] <richiefrich> dverzolla ^

[03:33] <richiefrich> dverzolla  for a smtp server
[03:34] <anonymeeee> too late

[03:42] <picasso> anyone know why i would get "Could not calculate the upgrade" when going from 5.10 to 6.06 (w/ the upgrade GUI tool)
[03:42] <ardchoille> jungsonn: You can't. the root account is disabled and you need to use sudo for admin tasks.
[03:42] <fyrestrtr> jungsonn: you are not supposed to do that.
[03:42] <fyrestrtr> ardchoille: yes.
[03:42] <ardchoille> fyrestrtr: Ah, ok, thanks

[03:44] <jungsonn> thank you!
[03:44] <ardchoille> jungsonn: I have been using Ubuntu since hoary and have never needed to login as root
[03:44] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[03:44] <ardchoille> jungsonn: use sudo for command line apps and use gksudo for gui apps.
[03:45] <jungsonn> ok that gksudo i was not aware of.. looks handy
[03:45] <chungaroo> can someone help me install my f5d7011 belkin wireless card? all of the guides i've tried haven't worked for me

[03:49] <jrib> fblade: yes, as long as you have enabled universe
[03:49] <sergio-me> to add things in sites-enabled or in sites-available?

[03:52] <usemody> sersen
[03:53] <usemody> can any one help me please
[03:53] <jungsonn> ok great!
[03:53] <jungsonn> :D
[03:53] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: whats up?
[03:53] <fblade> ok how do i use ISTANBUL
[03:53] <dapet_> anyone can help?!!!
[03:53] <ardchoille> I loved Ubuntu, with the many apps it has. When I learned to enable the universe and multiverse repos, I just stood there and drooled over all the new apps, lol
[03:53] <usemody> need adobe flash and shockwave plugin
[03:53] <doublehp> ZennouRyuu: rmmod him :)
[03:53] <Rookie-> just ask the question .... if anyone can help they will answer
[03:54] <usemody> btw the adobe plugin must be 9
[03:54] <CyberMad> why ubuntu better than kubuntu (i say this because #ubuntu have bigger community than #kubuntu), AFAIK KDE is more popular than Gnome. I want install the distro in my new IBM X31 laptop :)
[03:54] <doublehp> dapet all depend if your card is supported or not :)
[03:54] <Rookie-> ubuntu includes the server version too ;)
[03:54] <Ng> CyberMad: ubuntu uses gnome, so that's the default and people tend to gravitate towards that
[03:54] <jrib> usemody: there is no flash9 or shockwave for linux, contact adobe.  However, you can use wine to run a windows version of firefox with those things
[03:54] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: as far as I know there is no shockwave plugin in linux, it uses directX apis and therefore cant really be made to run in linux
[03:55] <doublehp> ardchoille: Ubuntu is a Debian copy; other non Debian system have even more apps :)
[03:55] <ZennouRyuu> flash 9 is in the works from adobe but no beta or release date has been set
[03:55] <joltdude> Id like to see flash9 ported...
[03:55] <Ng> doublehp: like what?
[03:55] <ardchoille> CyberMad: You can install ubuntu and then install kubuntu-desktop, that will give you access to gnome *and* kde apps.
[03:55] <soheil_> aot-get install xchm didn''t work
[03:55] <Rookie-> if it dosent exist - create it
[03:55] <jrib> soheil_: do you have universe enabled?
 it is i checed
[03:55] <Rookie-> apt-get
[03:55] <doublehp> Ng: LFS, slakware, GEntoo ...
[03:55] <ZennouRyuu> joltdude: they have promised a flash 9.x for linux in the near future, most likely to coincide with the 9.5 release
[03:55] <soheil_> no
[03:56] <filip_> Hello - am used to redhat/fedora,  I am missing the command line for (mail) like mail e-mail@adresse  -s subject
[03:56] <soheil_> how to enable it?
[03:56] <jrib> soheil_: you need to enable universe to get xchm
[03:56] <joltdude> thats good, current flash seems to have a few glitches
[03:56] <usemody> stupid i know ...had hope it exist an fake api
[03:56] <jrib> soheil_: check your private messages from ubotu
[03:56] <CyberMad> ardchoille actually i'm confuse about choosing Gnome or KDE, which one better?
[03:56] <Ng> doublehp: LFS has more applications than ubuntu? haha, good one ;)
[03:56] <ardchoille> doublehp: Ubuntu is not a *copy* of debian, yes, it is based on sid, but it os much different.
[03:56] <filip_> what package do I ned ?
[03:56] <soheil_> how to enable universe?
[03:56] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: there is a directX api implementation through wine or cedega, but I am unsure if this can be made to work with shockwave
[03:56] <chungaroo> can someone please help me set up my wireless card? i installed the driver using ndiswrapper and the driver is present, but my device can't be detected
[03:56] <usemody> and why using wine i can plug my second hd and run windows vista
[03:56] <ardchoille> CyberMad: The only advice I can give you is to try them both and see which one works best for your purposes.
[03:56] <jrib> soheil_: did you receive a private message from ubotu?
[03:57] <syntaxx> hmm no cd torrent on ubuntu.. is it ok that i install old ubuntu version and just update/upgrade it thru internet?
[03:57] <doublehp> Ng: it has whatever you are brave enough to install from the web :)
[03:57] <joltdude> Libc6 dependancy hell
[03:57] <doublehp> Ng: including any app you could virtually write ...
[03:57] <Ng> doublehp: and why is that not also true of ubuntu? :)
[03:57] <soheil_> yes
[03:57] <chungaroo> can someone please help me set up my wireless card? i installed the driver using ndiswrapper and the driver is present, but my device can't be detected
[03:57] <FirstStrike> is there any way to make nautilus permanently show hidden files?
[03:57] <erUSUL> !repeat > chungaroo
[03:57] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, keep reposing wont get you an answer any quicker
[03:58] <jrib> soheil_: those are the instructions for enabling universe, just let me know if you have any problems with them
[03:58] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: wine wont run windows of any version, it simply reimplements the windows API inside of linux so that some windows applications can run in some capactiy
[03:58] <CyberMad> ardchoille i ever tried both and KDE steal my heart ;P because many apps supported by KDE, then why you choose Gnome?
[03:58] <chungaroo> i appologize
[03:58] <doublehp> Ng: because people why want ubuntu may not be brave enough to try installing things that are not Debian packaged ... (begin of troll )
[03:58] <ardchoille> FirstStrike: yes, open nautilus prefs and look in the tabs, there is a seting there to show hidden files
[03:58] <ZennouRyuu> if you actually want to run windows inside of linux you need an emulator like VMWare workstation
[03:58] <Ng> doublehp: then LFS offers those people nothing.
[03:58] <FirstStrike> oh.duh.
[03:58] <FirstStrike> thanks
[03:58] <usemody> ZennouRyuu i know what wine is ...using better cygwin...
[03:58] <ardchoille> CyberMad: gnome just works better for the way I use my computer :)
[03:58] <qwerty2k> my firefox seems to be crashing an awful lot recently
[03:59] <CyberMad> ZennouRyuu AFAIK Virtual PC use less resources than VMWare
[03:59] <usemody> remote desktop acce for alle os
[03:59] <jungsonn> i ran cxoffice, or Corssoveroffice for windows apps, works fine for me.
[03:59] <usemody> under all os
[03:59] <usemody> ;)
[03:59] <syntaxx> hmm no cd torrent on ubuntu.. is it ok that i install old ubuntu version and just update/upgrade it thru internet?
[03:59] <jungsonn> it not free though...
[03:59] <ZennouRyuu> CyberMad: ive not used it myself so I wouldnt know, I try to avoid windows apps alltogether
[03:59] <ZennouRyuu> :-D
[03:59] <KenSentMe> syntaxx: what do you mean by old?
[03:59] <fblade> is there another alternative to istanbul as it doesnt seem to be working properly
[04:00] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, i have ubuntu 5.10 cd
[04:00] <filip_> Does anybody know what I need to apt-get to get mail from shell like this mail e-mail@domain -s subject ?
[04:00] <KenSentMe> syntaxx: better to download an iso. Do you have a problem with torrents?
[04:00] <usemody> same disaster ever ...... no way tu use once of app which has half or full commercial flags
[04:01] <KenSentMe> filip_: try mutt
[04:01] <jaakkos> is ubuntuforum down?
[04:01] <CyberMad> ardchoille ok, i will ask kubuntu channel.. hehe just hoping got ideal answer :) because if i ask ubuntu (of course everyone will tell me to use ubuntu and vice versa)
[04:01] <erUSUL> filip_: mailx ?
[04:01] <ardchoille> CyberMad: True :)
[04:01] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, coz i dont wanna waste my time downloading again i just download it direct and a bad download.. i need torrent coz it has a hash checking
[04:01] <KenSentMe> jaakkos: looks like it
[04:01] <erUSUL> filip_: it should be installed by default afaik
[04:01] <usemody> ZennouRyuu thx for try to help ....
[04:01] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: No problem, sorry i had no good news :)
[04:01] <KenSentMe> syntaxx: so why don't you use the torrent then?
[04:02] <jungsonn> does annyone know a right torrent port? i tryed manuy, all NAT problems with it.
[04:02] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, torrent is for dvd only i dont have a dvd burner though
[04:02] <filip_> Ok KenSentMe and erUSUL
[04:02] <erUSUL> jungsonn: i use 6881
[04:02] <jungsonn> yeah i get errors on that one
[04:02] <ZennouRyuu> jungsonn: I think that will depend on your firewall configuration
[04:03] <usemody> ZennouRyuu not yours ..... to many factors wouldn't open his eyes for the wonderfull world of open source
[04:03] <erUSUL> filip_: mutt is fullscreen curses program. try mailx or mailutils
[04:03] <KenSentMe> syntaxx: torrent is for the cd iso too
[04:03] <jungsonn> ok thanks all, have nice day.
[04:03] <ZennouRyuu> if you can open up ports on your router/firewall/whatever is in front of your network then you can use those ports for torrents
[04:04] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, yeah but i mean in kubuntu.com it says torrent kubuntu-dvd.iso
[04:04] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, .org rather
[04:04] <filip_> Ok KenSentMe and erUSUL  - look fine with mailx  thanx

[04:06] <ZennouRyuu> usemody: Im not certain, but i believe the mono project was created for that http://www.mono-project.com/
[04:07] <syntaxx> KenSentMe, ok theres a kubuntu 6.06 torrent here i can just manually update it to 6.06.1 right?

[04:12] <KenSentMe> giacomo: just ask your question
[04:13] <a_l_e> giacomo: your 30 secs are over.

[04:13] <ompaul> ahh
[04:13] <ompaul> that helps
[04:13] <KenSentMe> ompaul: he just joined the nl channel
[04:14] <ompaul> KenSentMe, ahh good
[04:14] <usemody> ZennouRyuu may be can i run vmware under ubuntu ....know this way works .... but had bevore running ubuntu using slackware
[04:14] <ompaul> a_l_e, its time suspended to disk mode :)
[04:14] <KenSentMe> ompaul: and he left it again :p
[04:14] <a_l_e> ompaul: :-)
[04:14] <ZennouRyuu> VMware is usually a good solution for when you have to have something (non 3d) working perfectly...........just so long as you have plenty of RAM to spare
[04:14] <ompaul> KenSentMe, well that works, on some level
[04:15] <giacomo> i'm following this guide http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/index.php?topic=26335.msg125286 but when i give the command gcc convert.c -o convert it says it can't find many things such as stdio.h
[04:15] <KenSentMe> ompaul: another satisfied customer
[04:15] <giacomo> i guess it has something to do with gcc
[04:15] <ompaul> giacomo, we sould not be able to read that have you asked in #ubuntu-it
[04:15] <giacomo> or kernel headers
[04:15] <KenSentMe> giacomo: have you installed build-essential?
[04:15] <giacomo> ok,let me see
[04:15] <a_l_e> giacomo: i guess you're trying to compile some packages... you need the -dev files for it...
[04:16] <jatt> giacomo: pastebin the output
[04:16] <giacomo> ok

[04:19] <ardchoille> ompaul: You have unfiltered pm allowed?
[04:19] <barros> sometime I get a DTMF ton in the middle of conversation.. probably asterisk is interpreting some piece of voice as a dtmf and sending an INFO command to my phone.. anyone here got something like this?
[04:19] <ompaul> ardchoille, amoung other things

[04:20] <usemody> ZennouRyuu normaly i need to find a deb install package for vmware to install or can i convert with alien from rpm and it runs correct too
[04:20] <a_l_e> giacomo: do this search in google: ubuntu "error: stdio.h:" you should get the solution as the first entry :-)
[04:20] <usemody> is that right ?
[04:21] <ardchoille> usemody: You need to find a .deb that was made for Ubuntu, it's not good to use other .deb's and usinf alien can be dangerous
[04:21] <jatt> giacomo: you must have something wrong with your gcc installation. The convert.c file compiles fine here.
[04:21] <giacomo> i've done it,i swear....but google didn't help...
[04:21] <ardchoille> !alien
[04:21] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[04:21] <giacomo>  i hadn't essentials installed
 i'm checking if this is the prob
[04:21] <Machtyn> can anyone help me with a combined ubuntu/mythtv issue I am having?
[04:22] <mcphail> usemody: the installer in the vmware tar.gz is friendly. Don't use alien
[04:22] <neenaoffline> how do I start DOSBox in full screen ?
[04:23] <poison_> alt-enter
[04:23] <usemody> ardchoille .....thx ..... by slackware it was enough to find any in .tgz because installer was change by nomen is omen ...called zipslack
[04:23] <KenSentMe> Machtyn: just tell us your problem and maybe someone has an answer
[04:23] <micahcowan> neenaoffline, or -fullscreen
[04:23] <overhangingtrees> zoom zoom...
[04:23] <lukus001> Does anyone know a good program that will let me convert video files?   mainly avi to DV AVI?
[04:23] <Machtyn> my issue is that apparently mythtv 0.18 and mysql 5.0 do not play nice together.  Unfortunately, that's what ubuntu installs.  I've tried to install mythtv 0.19 following the guide at mythtv.org, but everytime I do a ./configure it tells me I need Lame installed (I have it installed), and qmake mythtv.pro fails
[04:23] <ardchoille> usemody: Ubuntu is quite different :)
[04:23] <ssdd534> is it possible to play an m3u with mplayer.. ive looked around and cant find any info on it
[04:23] <usemody> mcphail also i can use my stored tgz package
[04:24] <KenSentMe> lukus001: avidemux
[04:24] <KenSentMe> !info avidemux
[04:24] <ubotu> avidemux: a small editing software for avi (especially DivX). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:2.1.2-0.0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 2607 kB, installed size 6756 kB
[04:24] <Machtyn> my questions is, is there a way to install mythtv 0.19 using the package manager, or do I need to try and figure out the Lame problem to continue the manual mythtv install?
[04:24] <lukus001> KenSentMe how do i save it as DV AVI?   cause ive actually got that installed?
[04:24] <usemody> ardchoille i see but i find it's an very fun and interessted distro
[04:25] <Khamael> it is perfectly safe to let ubuntu upgrade packages in the background, right?
[04:25] <overhangingtrees> yah
[04:25] <jatt> Khamael: what if an upgrade fails?
[04:25] <ardchoille> usemody: Indeed, I love Ubuntu and it would be very hard to get me to switch now :)
[04:25] <fblade> hey is there anyway i can configure xgl/compiz so i can have a background on the Cube when changing viewports
[04:25] <ompaul> jatt, you test at the end by going again
[04:25] <ompaul> !xgl
[04:25] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[04:25] <KenSentMe> lukus001: i thought it had that option, wait i'll look
[04:26] <Khamael> jatt: check log?
[04:26] <usemody> :-P
[04:26] <KenSentMe> lukus001: you are right. Sorry
[04:26] <lukus001> Kensentme, np nevermind - know of any possible other programs?
[04:26] <KenSentMe> lukus001: maybe kino
[04:27] <Khamael> jatt: but it won`t brake my system?
[04:27] <lukus001> KenSentme that what im trying to get the DV avi format for ^^
[04:27] <jatt> Khamael: does apt-get dist-upgrade write its output to a log per default? I know you can redirect the output...
[04:27] <KenSentMe> lukus001: lol
[04:27] <KenSentMe> lukus001: out of options then
[04:27] <lukus001> kensentme, it only like dv format - so stupid >.< , thanks for your help anyway :)
[04:28] <usemody> had find a way to try the flash payer trauma
[04:28] <hAvAAck> hi all, huge newbie here, I'm having some trouble getting ubuntu to install or boot up live, anyone willing to give me a little advice please?
[04:28] <usemody> http://www.das-netzbuch.de/article/2475/reload---internet-explorer-6-unter-linux
[04:28] <usemody> using ie under linux
[04:28] <ssdd534> im having troble with totem, im streaming media from my server with a m3u file and it keeps playing the same song over and over (repeat is not on) any ideas?
[04:28] <CyberMad> how to install ubuntu in my notebook IBM X31, but i don't have CD-ROM or DVD-ROM for it. So? :)
[04:28] <jatt> ssdd534: are you using totem-gstreamer or totem-xine?
[04:28] <yum> hello, if I let nautilus display me the rights of the files/directories I see stuff like drwxr-xr-x. The d means that it is a directory. Nautilus shows this in Octal view as 1200755. other files as 20064 some others as 640. I know what the last three digits (755, 644) mean. But what about the first 4 digits (12000) or three (200) and some files are displayed only with three digits?
[04:28] <vaz> if I create a module how do I load it?
[04:28] <Khamael> jatt: I am not talking about dist-upgrades, but the ubuntu setting that allows ubuntu to dl/install packages in the background. I seldom look at the upgrades anyways
[04:28] <usemody> and you can use the actuall flash player
[04:28] <ompaul> hAvAAck, you actually have to say how far you are getting and then say what is happening and then maybe if someone in the channel has a clue they share that clue with you
[04:28] <ssdd534> jatt totem-xine
[04:28] <Machtyn> CyberMad, do you have a floppy drive?
[04:28] <zsh> !installation
[04:28] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[04:28] <CyberMad> right now Windows XP Professional SP2 already installed.. i want to install ubuntu with Grub
[04:29] <Khamael> jatt: just upgrade, I think
[04:29] <CyberMad> Machtyn well, no :(
[04:29] <soheil> I have universe enabled
[04:29] <hAvAAck> ompaul- it's barely getting anywhere. I run into mostly kernel panic error and it freezes while it is "loading hardware drivers"
[04:29] <CyberMad> Machtyn is that the last option ?
[04:29] <Xappe> i've added a background image to my grub menu, but now when I try to change the menu color to match the image, nothing happens...why?
[04:29] <soheil> but I agian don't see xchm in synaptic
[04:30] <ompaul> hAvAAck, read this web page, wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions
[04:30] <CyberMad> zsh thanks
[04:30] <zsh> !installation > hAvAAck
[04:30] <Machtyn> CyberMad: no, have you looked up a way to do a network install on the laptop? (Does it have a network card?)  If you can't do it that way, might I suggest getting an external USB optical drive
[04:30] <giacomo> guys thanks a lot for yopur suggestions
[04:30] <zsh> CyberMad, np
[04:30] <giacomo> problem solved
[04:30] <hAvAAck> thanks :) I'll give all this a read and see if I can get some headway on this
[04:31] <CyberMad> Machtyn yes it have RJ45 port
[04:31] <ardchoille> soheil: xchm is in universe, if you aren't seeing, then I am guessing that you didn't enable universe as you thought you did
[04:31] <giacomo> (now there's a bunch of others new,but whatever... :PPPP)
[04:31] <crouton> morning folks, anyone run into an issue with USB-only computers that won't boot the 6.06 Desktop CD?
[04:31] <soheil_> I e3nabled universe
[04:31] <CyberMad> Machtyn i will check the documentation about that.. thanks :)
[04:31] <soheil_> & again don't see xchm
[04:32] <ardchoille> soheil: Can you *pastebin* your sources.list for me please?
[04:32] <soheil_> I enabled universe
[04:32] <soheil_> & again don't see xchm
[04:32] <Machtyn> CyberMad: Another option is to get a bootable USB drive that has a base linux distro on it (gentoo, ubuntu, knoppix) and start a network/internet install that way (if the laptop will boot from a USB drive)
[04:33] <bagoor> I want to start a Audio Streaming Server. Which applications do you know ?
[04:33] <ardchoille> soheil: pastebin your sources.list for me please
[04:33] <jatt> soheil_: are you running breezy?
[04:33] <Machtyn> Is there a way to install mythtv 0.19 using the synaptic package manager?
[04:33] <soheil_> yes
[04:33] <jaakkos> is there a bug with System - Preferences - Sound - Default sound card selection?
[04:33] <soheil_> 5.1.0 I guee
[04:34] <mcphail> bagoor: gnump3d
[04:34] <ardchoille> is xchm in the Breezy repos?
[04:34] <jaakkos> i don't seem to be able to change it

[04:34] <CyberMad> Machtyn ok, :)
[04:34] <jrib> soheil_: post your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org please

[04:35] <bagoor> mcphail, ok, thx
[04:36] <CyberMad> does acronis true image for linux is ok to use? i want to use it as recovery tool if something bad happen to my ubuntu
[04:36] <daveb> I upgraded to Dapper. When I use gnome power manager to suspend or hibernate, the screen goes blank for a secnd then comes back with the login and then i get a notice that it didn't work with a link to the FAQ. I don't see any errors in syslog. how can I troubleshoot this?
[04:37] <Machtyn> CyberMad:  As far as I can tell (I have a personal copy) Acronis True Image will work with most file systems
[04:37] <usemody> oki guys ......i get off here ....see yah
[04:39] <vaz> how do I load modules
[04:40] <DanHowell> afternoon
[04:40] <ardchoille> DanHowell: hi
[04:40] <DanHowell> does chattr +i <filename> lock <filename> so that it can't be overwritten or altered at all?
[04:40] <ardchoille> DanHowell: yes
[04:41] <DanHowell> and chattr -i <filename> will undo it?
[04:41] <ardchoille> DanHowell: It also keeps that file from being upgraded by the system updates if it is a system file
[04:41] <ardchoille> DanHowell: yes
[04:41] <daveb> so is there a file that should contain a error message is suspend doesn't work?
[04:42] <DanHowell> Because what I'm trying to do is lock resolv.conf so it doesn't get reset to point to my router whenever I turn this box on
[04:42] <crouton> vaz - modprobe <modulename>
[04:42] <J_P> hi all
[04:42] <crouton> o/
[04:43] <zsh> how can i find out what version of ubuntu i'm running. is the a command or something?
[04:43] <ardchoille> DanHowell: That will do it, however, I hear there are better ways to keep the router IP out of resolv.conf
[04:43] <ardchoille> zsh: lsb_release -a
[04:43] <AnAmiC> hey there, how do I open a textfile writeable, so that I can edit it? I don't see, how I can do this with the GUI.
[04:43] <DanHowell> ardchoille: what would you suggest?
[04:43] <longwave> DanHowell: there is a "resolvconf" package which can help you manage /etc/resolv.conf though you should read the docs before installing it
[04:43] <ardchoille> AnAmiC: Is it a system file, or a file in your home?
[04:44] <AnAmiC> a systemfile
[04:44] <ardchoille> DanHowell: I saw a couple threads about that on http://ubuntuforums.org
[04:44] <DanHowell> I'll go and have a read. thanks.
[04:44] <ardchoille> AnAmiC: You can open that file as read/write with gksudo gedit filename  but be careful with that
[04:44] <crouton> DanHowell - you could do some sort of post-login script that overwrites the resolv.conf file with one sitting in your homedir...?
[04:45] <Maister_Ben> Hi everyone, first time linux/ubuntu user here and was wondering since everything seems to be working just fine in ubuntu... do i have to install drivers for my hardware or did it install itself ?
[04:45] <AnAmiC> yeah ok, thanx for helping! :)
[04:45] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[04:46] <ardchoille> crouton: or have a root script that does  "sed -i 's/<router IP//g' ?
[04:46] <soheil_> my /etc/apt/sources.list conents are at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20768
[04:46] <poison_> Maister_Ben what kind of video card?
[04:46] <longwave> Maister_Ben: most drivers are installed automatically, though if you want 3d acceleration on ati/nvidia there is a bit of configuration to do
[04:46] <ompaul> Maister_Ben, it should work for you out of the box if the hardware is over 6months old in design and as longwave said
[04:46] <longwave> Maister_Ben: also some wireless chipsets need extra drivers before they will run, but apart from that most things work out of the box
[04:46] <soheil_> jrib:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20768
[04:47] <Maister_Ben> im using nvidia 6600LE
[04:47] <crouton> ardchoille - something like that.  It looks like Dan just wants some way to keep a specific setting from being overwritten
[04:47] <Maister_Ben> so i guess nvidia drivers then
[04:47] <ardchoille> soheil_: Do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xchm
[04:47] <longwave> !nvidia
[04:47] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:47] <poison_> I still need to do an upgrade of my video driver. Although it runs fine right now I don't think I have 3d acceleration with the default install on my nvidia card
[04:48] <Maister_Ben> and another thing... i tried playing back an mp3 but the player says there's some decoder missing
[04:48] <ardchoille> soheil_: Any time you modify the sources.list, you have to do sudo apt-get update (or "Reload" in Synaptic) for the system to see the modifications
[04:48] <longwave> !mp3
[04:48] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:48] <Maister_Ben> where do i get these standard codecs in an easy install package ?
[04:48] <longwave> Maister_Ben: mp3 cannot be included directly in ubuntu due to licensing issues, read the restricted formats page that ubotu just linked to
[04:49] <eder> bjhgjhdas

[04:49] <Maister_Ben> ah okay... well that explains it then, thanks
[04:50] <soheil_> E: Couldn't find package xchm
[04:50] <poison_> Maiser_Ben install xmms
[04:50] <gallardo> hello everybody
[04:50] <jatt> soheil_: did you do apt-get update
[04:50] <ardchoille> soheil_: Did you do sudo apt-get update  ?
[04:51] <vaz> i have ipw3945 Intel wirelss
[04:51] <vaz> its not found
[04:51] <Felly> I have a nice xcompmgr command that I like. Where do I have to put it to make it persistent ?
[04:51] <vaz> on my hardware scan
[04:51] <DanHowell> what the hell is ipv6?
[04:51] <vaz> what do I do?
[04:52] <jatt> DanHowell: nothing to worry about see http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/ipv6mess.html
[04:52] <ardchoille> DanHowell: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipv6
[04:53] <quiet> i'm trying t install VMware-server on Dapper and i try to 'rpm -Uvh VMware-server*.rpm' and it comes back and says/bin/sh is needed by VMware-server....
[04:54] <quiet> but, i have /bin/sh of course.
[04:54] <crouton> quiet - use the .tar.gz file
[04:54] <magikfingerz> quiet, I'm using vmware-server right now in dapper, but I use the binary install instead of rpms
[04:54] <longwave> http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_vmware_server worked for me installing vmware
[04:55] <quiet> damnit... that's a big download :\
[04:55] <quiet> alright... i'll go get it.
[04:55] <crouton> quiet - you will also need 'build-essential' and 'netkit-inetd' packages installed, and probably the headers for your current linux kernel as well
[04:55] <magikfingerz> quiet, but you will not be dissapointed... I'm sure...
[04:55] <vaz> how do I get Intel Pro wirelss working
[04:55] <vaz> its not recognizing hardware
[04:56] <crouton> vaz - what laptop
[04:56] <magikfingerz> vaz, no problema, I think you need ndiswrapper and windows drivers :)
[04:56] <DanHowell> thank you very much, everyone
[04:58] <ardchoille> quiet: BTW, it's not a good idea to install .rpm's in Ubuntu. Best to follow this: 1. Check the repos  2. Find a .deb made for Ubuntu  3. Compile yourself
[04:58] <donrosin> bash: make: command not found wtf?
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> install build-essential package
[04:59] <crouton> ardchoille: Don't think there's a .deb for VMWare Server.
[04:59] <Maister_Ben> so um with xmms... installation ?? i guess i just can't doubleclick something and magically make things work can i ? :)
[04:59] <donrosin> bash: make: command not found - wtf?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Maister_Ben,  sudo apt-get install xmms
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> donrosin,  install it.
[04:59] <kouwe> how can i update my kernel, i now have 2.6.15-26-686
[04:59] <magikfingerz> donrosin, install build-essential package as Dr_Willis said...
[04:59] <Maister_Ben> thanks
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> kouwe, sudo apt-get upgrade, sudo apt-get update
[05:00] <donrosin> what is the command for that?
[05:00] <crouton> 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[05:00] <ardchoille> kouwe, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:01] <kouwe> "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[05:01] <kouwe> but there is a newer kernel right?
[05:01] <ardchoille> kouwe: Not for Ubuntu atm
[05:01] <kouwe> ardchoille: ok then
[05:01] <Maister_Ben> so all programs i want to install are done by this command ? sudo apt-get xxx
[05:01] <kouwe> ardchoille: i need to get my cardreader working :) (laptop)
[05:02] <ardchoille> Maister_Ben: Or you can use Synaptic
[05:02] <PurpleTen> Hello guys, just wondering is theres a software for ubuntu that allows me to auto update my ip to services like no-ip ?
[05:02] <Maister_Ben> what is synaptic ?
[05:02] <kouwe> Maister_Ben: "sudo apt-get install ***"
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> Maister_Ben,  it pays to read up on the apt system. and learn how it works.
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> !apt-get
[05:02] <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)
[05:02] <crouton> !synaptic
[05:02] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[05:02] <superkirbyartis1> Need help with webcam (draper).
[05:02] <ardchoille> Maister_Ben: System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[05:02] <Maister_Ben> yah... i guess i'll read the basics not to waste your time ;) thanks though
[05:03] <kouwe> is it possible that acpi has some problems on laptops..... i can only boot with acp=off ?
[05:03] <ardchoille> Maister_Ben: You're not wasting our time, but when you read, it usually answers multiple questions in one go :)
[05:03] <soheil> I see no xchm
[05:03] <crouton> entirely possible, kouwe
[05:03] <Maister_Ben> i'll do that
[05:03] <soheil> I did apt-get update
[05:03] <kouwe> crouton: and acpi has nothing to do with a card reader right?
[05:04] <superkirbyartis1> I need help with webcam draper.
[05:04] <kouwe> crouton: cause every time i insert a SD card, it crashes
[05:04] <joltdude> Though truth be told, some of the docs are seriously lacking
[05:04] <crouton> kouwe - unlikely. when you do a 'lspci', does anything show up?
[05:04] <h4ch3r> hello
[05:04] <jatt> ? the package *is* there, see http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xchm/
[05:04] <h4ch3r> some help me?
[05:04] <kouwe> crouton: "CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller"
[05:04] <PurpleTen> heh silly me theres a apt client for no-ip :)
[05:05] <crouton> kouwe - cardbus is the successor to pcmcia, i think.
[05:05] <superkirbyartis1> Need help with webcam draper.
[05:05] <joltdude> super. have you tried running an app that calls a webcam.. It might *just work*
[05:05] <joltdude> like Camorama
[05:05] <Fracture_> sometimes when I reboot, under Places I have a submenu "Removable Media" other times the items that were in "Removable Media" appear directly in the places menu.. seems odd that it isn't consistent
[05:05] <superkirbyartis1> aMSN and GnomeMeeting... makes linux freeze.
[05:05] <ardchoille> soheil: xchm *is* there. I don't know what the problem is. You have enabled universe and did an update, so you should be seeing it. Try apt-cache search xchm.
[05:05] <kouwe> crouton: so any idea what is crashing my system when i insert a card? or can i troubleshoot someting?
[05:06] <joltdude> Gnomemeeting no longer exists
[05:06] <joltdude> it was replaced by Ekiga
[05:06] <crouton> kouwe - done a google search on it?
[05:06] <superkirbyartis1> Whatever.  When I try to load webcam, crashes.
[05:06] <crouton> or your laptop
[05:06] <joltdude> well who makes the webcam?
[05:06] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: what crashes
[05:07] <superkirbyartis1> Nexxtech.  Works fine in windows.  Linux freezes (cannot move mouse, need to reboot).
[05:07] <kouwe> crouton: yes, but found that i had to install some drivers, but then i get with the "how do i update my kernel" problem...
[05:07] <joltdude> aMsn and gnomemeeting
[05:07] <crouton> !kernel
[05:07] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[05:07] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: check the /var/log/messages file
[05:07] <kouwe> crouton: http://members.inode.at/g.schild/DIV/Winbond-howto.html
[05:07] <crouton> kouwe - check out that Wiki page.
[05:07] <superkirbyartis1> Where?  Command prompt?
[05:07] <joltdude> If a cam works in windows it means NOTHING about it working in linux, fact most cams are unsupported
[05:08] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: use any editor to check it contents
[05:08] <joltdude> or could just more it
[05:08] <crouton> kouwe: if you really need to recompile your kernel in order to add the cardreader drivers, that will help you understand what to do
[05:08] <superkirbyartis1> Have bunch of files.
[05:08] <kouwe> crouton: ill read that ....
[05:08] <superkirbyartis1> Help please.  Webcam appears but freezes.
[05:09] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: for some kernel crashes you will find more information in the /var/log/messages file
[05:09] <Rookie-> webcam can be som tricky under linux ....
[05:09] <superkirbyartis1> messages = error "Not a directory"
[05:09] <LiteWait> hey folks... before I buy one on eBay, I just wanted to make sure an orinoco gold card will "just work" with dapper on my craptop. Am I correct?
[05:10] <kouwe> crouton: thanks in advance, now reading
[05:10] <crouton> superkirbyartis1: pastebin your error log
[05:10] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: just open the file
[05:10] <crouton> kouwe: np, good luck
[05:10] <kouwe> thnx :)
[05:10] <superkirbyartis1> i cannot cd to messages.
[05:10] <keiron> hi. does anyone know whether the cds you can order from https://shipit.ubuntu.com/myrequest include the server specific distributions?
[05:10] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: is not a directory, is a *file* you can open it with an editor
[05:10] <crouton> superkirbyartis1: 'less /var/log/messages'
[05:10] <Rookie-> or tail
[05:10] <superkirbyartis1> okay.
[05:10] <crouton> or tail, true
[05:11] <superkirbyartis1> Aug 16 11:07:07 localhost -- MARK --
[05:11] <superkirbyartis1> not sure
[05:11] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: the entries in that file are ordered by date and time you can check if at the time it crashed you got an entry there
[05:11] <Rookie-> use pastebin
[05:11] <Rookie-> !pastebin
[05:11] <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)
[05:11] <joltdude> Ornico is *good*
[05:11] <superkirbyartis1> It is 11:07:07 that it crashed.
[05:12] <LiteWait> joltdude. thanks!
[05:12] <joltdude> A lot of networking stuff is made *just* for the ornico series of cards
[05:12] <tyler_d> could someone walk me through installing Bittornado please?
[05:12] <superkirbyartis1> If i go in amsn, it will appear as Flexcam 100
[05:13] <quiet> isn't bittornado for windows?
[05:13] <Rookie-> superkirbyartis1 - question is what the system says about it, not what a prog says
[05:13] <superkirbyartis1> When I select webcam channel, crashes.
[05:13] <quiet> tyler_d, what's wrong with the bittorrent gui?
[05:13] <tyler_d> quiet: there is a linux flavor.
[05:13] <jatt> superkirbyartis1: can you pastebin the lines before and after 11:07 ?
[05:14] <superkirbyartis1> what is file path again?
[05:14] <crouton> /var/log/messages?
[05:14] <Rookie-> or syslog ...
[05:15] <Rookie-> dmesg can be useful too
[05:15] <keiron> hi. does anyone know whether the cds you can order from https://shipit.ubuntu.com/myrequest include the server specific distributions?
[05:15] <superkirbyartis1> I have some message from other Ubuntu chat.  BRB.
[05:15] <Rookie-> get the server from any mirror
[05:15] <ardchoille> tyler_d: in a term, type: which bittornado
[05:15] <KenSentMe> keiron: i think they are only the desktop versions
[05:15] <ardchoille> keiron: The cd's I received from ShipIt did not include the server cd
[05:15] <superkirbyartis1> pour la webcam nexxtech il faut empecher le module SN9C103 de se loader au boot et utiliser les drivers SPCA5xx
[05:15] <superkirbyartis1> Understand?
[05:16] <tyler_d> ardchoille: downloaded the source for bittornado
[05:16] <Rookie-> english pls
[05:16] <Defaf> what are the main advantages to use Ubuntu?
[05:16] <keiron> That sucks! I need to convince my boss to move over to linux hosting and a nice shiny case might help :)
[05:16] <ardchoille> tyler_d: bittornado is in the main repo
[05:16] <ardchoille> tyler_d: sudo apt-get install bittornado
[05:16] <Rookie-> Defaf - easy to take care of
[05:16] <KenSentMe> keiron: you can install the server software with the desktop cd's
[05:17] <Defaf> Rookie-: are there any really good programs that are only for linuxa?
[05:17] <Defaf> -a
[05:17] <Rookie-> Defaf - worst, ubuntu dosent follow the standard
[05:17] <josesito> does someone know how to capture a video from a tv card??
[05:17] <crouton> KenSentMe: seugh
[05:17] <keiron> KenSentMe: ok thanks
[05:17] <keiron> i'll order some for the company then
[05:17] <KenSentMe> crouton: seugh ?
[05:17] <flipfone> could someone help me with the ownership of a disk?
[05:17] <Rookie-> i run server , i find it easy ... but at the same time difficult since it dosent follow the linuxstandard
[05:18] <aluno> como troco a senha do root no urubuntu?
[05:18] <crouton> KenSentMe: installing server off a desktop cd ... ugly
[05:18] <phaedrus44> how to use opengl on ubuntu?
[05:18] <joltdude> Just download a new iso and burn it
[05:18] <KenSentMe> crouton: you can choose server at boot, or not?
[05:18] <aluno> eu esqueci a minha senha.
[05:18] <PurpleTen> where can i find all the apt ?
[05:18] <KenSentMe> crouton: then it only installs the basics
[05:18] <crouton> KenSentMe: don't think you have a choice on the desktop cd
[05:18] <jatt> phaedrus44: you mean how to program with opengl?
[05:18] <Rookie-> best server dist is slackware, but wait until Pat releases version 11.0
[05:18] <josesito> anyone??
[05:18] <KenSentMe> crouton: it used to be so
[05:19] <KenSentMe> Ugh, Ubuntuforums is very slow today
[05:19] <keiron> i seem to remember that it does ask to install server or normal. but this might be 5.10 not 6.06
[05:19] <joltdude> Heh i miss infoselect
[05:19] <phaedrus44> jatt:  i thought it was for video card use
[05:20] <aluno> hi
[05:20] <keiron> oh well, if it doesn't provide it i'll just hand the cds out to people on the streets and get them converted
[05:20] <KenSentMe> keiron: just try it
[05:20] <jatt> KenSentMe: one reason to use the mailing lists instead of the forums.
[05:20] <joltdude> (mutters about stale java packages , dependancy issues, and stale eclipse)
[05:21] <marikiya> HOLA
[05:21] <skandyr> Im a new user to ubuntu and im having a lot of trouble with installing it.
[05:21] <KenSentMe> jatt: sorry, but i'm get frustrated by mailinglists. I thought forums are built to replace mailinglists
[05:21] <Andre4s> is there any way I can see the mount command that is executed when I connect my phone to the computer?
[05:22] <jatt> marikiya: -> #ubuntu-es
[05:22] <crouton> what's the problem skandyr
[05:22] <tyler_d> ardchoille: tyvm... still new and lots more dumb questions... but ty
[05:22] <Ng> joltdude: muttering will get you nowhere :)
[05:22] <roym> Hi all - I can put my compaq presario laptop to sleep succesfully - but can't wake it up :( Am I missing a setting in my X Config file?
[05:22] <Ng> joltdude: bug reports, patches and the like will, however, get you everywhere :)
[05:22] <crouton> Andre4s: bluetooth?
[05:22] <skandyr> it has something to do whith the partition
[05:22] <ardchoille> tyler_d: You're welcome :)
[05:22] <zoidberg> hey guys
[05:22] <zoidberg> need a lil help
[05:22] <Andre4s> crouton, usb
[05:23] <Andre4s> cable
[05:23] <zoidberg> i finally got ubuntu badger installed on my G3 powerbook
[05:23] <zoidberg> i get the nice gui login screen
[05:23] <joltdude> nj. I can compile a standard C app and make, im not the one to be making packages
[05:23] <zoidberg> i login
[05:23] <zoidberg> i hear th emusic
[05:23] <zoidberg> but nothing else appears
[05:23] <dgold> skandyr: what is the partition problem?
[05:23] <Katagia> Hi. I have to compile new modules for vmware. I'm new to ubuntu. Where can I find the kernel header or sources?
[05:23] <zoidberg> i see the mouse cursor which moves and the brown background
[05:23] <zoidberg> thast it
[05:23] <zoidberg> any helo?
[05:23] <zoidberg> help?
[05:23] <Rookie-> Katagia - kernel source kan be found at kernel.org
[05:23] <crouton> Andre4s: Does the phone get mounted automatically?
[05:24] <KenSentMe> !enter > zoidberg
[05:24] <skandyr> i ad already partitioned my hard drive and made 10 gb for installation
[05:24] <Andre4s> crouton, yes
[05:24] <Ng> Katagia: install linux-headers and linux-source, they should then pull in the required headers/source
[05:24] <Katagia> Rookie I know but where do I get the sources the ubuntu kernel was compiled from?
[05:24] <roym> zoidberg - you need to run a window manager
[05:24] <Ng> Rookie-: that's not the same kernel source as used by the ubuntu kernel though
[05:24] <Andre4s> crouton, but I want to know exactly how it's mounted
[05:24] <Rookie-> ohh
[05:24] <zoidberg> how do i do that
[05:24] <dgold> skandyr: what result did you get during installation?
[05:24] <zoidberg> i thought that came defualt with an installation
[05:24] <zoidberg> ?
[05:25] <cl187> !wifi
[05:25] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:25] <Ng> zoidberg: it does
[05:25] <crouton> Andre4s: hmm, you could check dmesg to see if any thing labeled 'sdX' was detected
[05:25] <Ng> zoidberg: on the login screen, pick a diferent session (e.g. failsafe) and see if that works
[05:25] <skandyr> i get an error saying invalid fil system forthis mount point
[05:25] <ardchoille> roym: If he installed Ubuntu, he already has a window manager. The default window manager in gnome is MEtacity.
[05:25] <Katagia> Ng: linux-headers ... Exactly what I was looking for. I searched for kernel-headers
[05:25] <skizzo> Does anyone have any suggestions for a real IRC client for Ubuntu 6.06? I'm using GAIM right now, and it's terrible :-o
[05:25] <zoidberg> i tried the failsafe GNOME
[05:25] <zoidberg> same problem
[05:25] <dgold> skandyr: what tool did you use to make the partition?
[05:25] <Fracture_> skizzo: xchat-gnome
[05:25] <LordOfTheNoobs> skizzo: irssi
[05:25] <Ng> skizzo: xchat or xchat-gnome if you want something graphical, irssi if you want something in a terminal and more chest hair ;)
[05:25] <skandyr> windows
[05:25] <ardchoille> skizzo: You can try xchat (gui) or irssi (text-based)
[05:26] <dmglouis> does anyone know how to turn off the warning about ports in Azureus? It's still on after I closed Azureus.
[05:26] <Crooper> hello all
[05:26] <skizzo> thanks guys :-) Ng: I already have enough chest hair ;-)
[05:26] <dgold> skandyr: is the new partition showing up in the installer?
[05:26] <zoidberg> any help guys?
[05:26] <skandyr> ye
[05:26] <skandyr> yes
[05:26] <Andre4s> dougsko, no mount information
[05:26] <rixxon> skizzo, xchat-gnome sucks, enable multiverse/universe and install xchat. or use irssi
[05:26] <Andre4s> crouton, no mount information
[05:26] <h4ch3r> hello....some use IE7 em edgy eft?
[05:27] <dmglouis> can anyone help?
[05:27] <jatt> h4ch3r: why on earth would you do something like that?
[05:27] <crouton> Andre4s: maybe 'cat /etc/mtab' ?
[05:27] <h4ch3r> jatt: yes ot no?
[05:28] <h4ch3r> *or
[05:28] <Ng> h4ch3r: as far as I know, IE7 does not yet run in WINE, so no
[05:28] <vaz> my bluetooth and wlan are powered by a hardware switch
[05:28] <dmglouis> please?
[05:28] <vaz> but I am not able to power them up on ubuntu
[05:28] <h4ch3r> Ng: dawn why?
[05:28] <crouton> h4ch3r: Install Xen or VMWare and run Windows (for real) inside Ubuntu
[05:28] <skizzo> rixxon: Okay, and I just downloaded and installed xchat-gnome ;-) I'll just download xchat. and irssi and see what I like :-)
[05:29] <vaz> is there a way  I can power them up
[05:29] <rixxon> skizzo, irssi is already installed
[05:29] <skandyr> does the error mean that ubuntu can't be installed on that drive?
[05:29] <dgold> skandyr: in the installation tool, you can select the filesystem type for the partition. try to change the partition from whatever windows made it into ext3
[05:29] <h4ch3r> I emule IE7 in edgy eft
[05:29] <Ng> h4ch3r: because wine always lags behind windows
[05:29] <ardchoille> rixxon: is irssi installed with the main Ubuntu system?
[05:29] <h4ch3r> Ng: why?
[05:30] <crouton> haha.. why indeed
[05:30] <rixxon> ardchoille, i'm pretty sure it is?
[05:30] <Ng> h4ch3r: because wine is a volunteer project that doesn't have Microsoft's budget?
[05:30] <ardchoille> rixxon: that's cool :)
[05:30] <crouton> because it's emulation, and nobody pays for it, and .... need I go on?
[05:30] <Rookie-> yes it is
[05:30] <skandyr> ok
[05:30] <skizzo> rixxon: I see....
[05:30] <h4ch3r> Ng: why!!why?
[05:30] <dmglouis> I need help
[05:31] <psyphen_> has anybody here accidentally installed the new freetype6 and realized that synaptic wont let me install the dev package now?
[05:31] <Ng> h4ch3r: do you have any serious questions, or are you trolling?
[05:31] <dgold> skandyr: this may help - http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=5&cid=B462B
[05:31] <h4ch3r> why windows'd bug?
[05:31] <phaedrus44> nero linux is really cvool
[05:31] <phaedrus44> cool
[05:31] <phaedrus44> too
[05:31] <J_P> hey all, anyone know some colocation (server location) in the web that install ubuntu too in servers ?
[05:31] <vaz> is there a way i can keep power on certain devices
[05:31] <crouton> J-P: google search for 'ubuntu hosting' ?
[05:31] <justin_> h4ch3r: Do you have a billion dollars to invest into the Wine project?
[05:32] <Linkiboy> i have a problem... i'm following the Ubuntu wiki to install MP3 codecs, and it says to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, but it's not listed in the synaptic package manager, only plugins-good are...
[05:32] <dmglouis> you have to enable universe
[05:32] <jatt> h4ch3r: that's stupid: why do you run IE on Linux? That doesn't make any sense.
[05:32] <ardchoille> !info gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[05:32] <ubotu> Package gstreamer010-plugins-ugly does not exist in dapper
[05:32] <Ng> jatt: of course it does
[05:32] <skandyr> i don't see where i an change the filesystem type
[05:32] <synic> jatt: testing.
[05:32] <ompaul> phaedrus44, we have software that does that - kind of pointless as we have sevearl packages that do that
[05:32] <justin_> Windows *sighs* - I only miss it for its audio editors, come on SONY port soundforce :))
[05:32] <crouton> jatt : plenty of good reasons to run IE on Linux.
[05:32] <Ng> jatt: but he's a troll and not worth feeding as I can see
[05:32] <h4ch3r> calma galera
[05:32] <dmglouis> look further up the wiki
[05:32] <jatt> synic: virtual machines are there for that purpuse, vmware, etc.
[05:32] <gebruiker_> I would like to create a installer that restores everything i.e ghostimage or some kind of thing like it...
[05:33] <dmglouis> it has instructions to enable multiverse and universe
[05:33] <justin_> Why does anyone even run IE anymore at all?, I mean it .. is like far behind .. really far
[05:33] <Lattyware> jatt: You can remove 'on Linux' from that statement and it's still oh-so-true.
[05:33] <h4ch3r> justin_: sim why?
[05:33] <Rookie-> never ask anyone else to port or make a prog, why dont do it on your own ... ?
[05:33] <crouton> !ghost
[05:33] <ubotu> On IRC, if you own a nick that is currently being used, you can make it quit by typing: /msg nickserv GHOST <username> <password>
[05:33] <phaedrus44> ompaul:  what ones? i dont use gnome xfce or kde and i dont want those libs....
[05:33] <Linkiboy> alrighty
[05:33] <crouton> doh
[05:33] <synic> jatt: no, that's another solution to the problem.  Not the /only/ solution.
[05:33] <justin_> h4ch3r: Well if WINE is not good enough for you you have two options, help the project with your vast knowledge of how things should be, or invest money into it.
[05:33] <engla> Linkiboy: you have to enable more repositories
[05:33] <psyphen_> hey guys, i need some help. how do you downgrade your libfreetype6? I accidentally installed 2.2.10 library, and synaptic hates me now. any idea how to change it back to a working version?
[05:33] <J_P> crouton: thanks
[05:33] <ompaul> phaedrus44, you got nautilus /  gnomebaker or command line stuff
[05:33] <crouton> gebruiker_: Search for 'ghost for linux'
[05:33] <engla> Linkiboy: it's in the menus
[05:33] <crouton> J_P: np
[05:33] <h4ch3r> money invest
[05:33] <h4ch3r> :)
[05:34] <ompaul> phaedrus44, and no doubt more
[05:34] <h4ch3r> us?
[05:34] <Rookie-> psyphen_ - remove the package and install what you wnat
[05:34] <phaedrus44> i dont want command line ( i like to point and click)  ghnomebaker comes with gnome libs and nautilis is huge
[05:34] <phaedrus44> hehe
[05:34] <psyphen_> it says it'll uninstall a LOT of depending packages though
[05:34] <dmglouis> does anyone know how to turn off warning about ports in Azureus? The 'Hide' button is not working
[05:34] <crouton> psyphen_: sudo apt-get remove libfreetype6 ?
[05:34] <phaedrus44> closest i like xcdroast...but not nearly as many features as nerolinuxx
[05:34] <Rookie-> the dep will prolly be installed oonce you install what you want/need
[05:34] <h4ch3r> edgy stable go gnome 2.16 with shadow???
[05:34] <psyphen_> i'll try that
[05:34] <jaakkos> i have a problem with firefox and sound: i can't get sound out from google video, youtube or flash. i have 2 sound cards which work ok otherwise.
[05:35] <psyphen_> synaptic is whiny
[05:35] <crouton> CLI for the win. :)
[05:35] <jaakkos> i don't seem to be able to get any sound from firefox.
[05:35] <quiet> okay, i have kernel-headers installed, but where are they? vmware-server wants to look at /usr/src/linux/include  but that doesn't exist.
[05:35] <Ng> psyphen_: go to packages.ubuntu.com, search for the package you want, download it and double click on it, it should be possible to install it then, over the top of the one you "accidentally" installed
[05:35] <Lattyware> Does anyone else find VLC uber-buggy under Linux
[05:35] <Lattyware> ?
[05:36] <mcphail> quiet: /usr/src/linux-headers-whaterverversion
[05:36] <psyphen_> it doesn't work Ng
[05:36] <jatt> Lattyware: it works perfectly on my laptop
[05:36] <crouton> quiet - go to /usr/src, then do 'sudo ln -s linux-headers-<fill in number here> linux'
[05:36] <Lattyware> It crashes on loads of stuff. Deleting stuff from the playlist crashes it :/
[05:36] <phaedrus44> i was wondering how to remove islsm_usb islsm and islsm_device from startup?
[05:36] <psyphen_> because I installed a more recent one I guess, but now it says the correct one isn't there
[05:36] <psyphen_> and i can't downgrade
[05:36] <jatt> Lattyware: haven't used playlists though
[05:36] <quiet> crouton, the only thing in /usr/src is rpm/
[05:36] <Ng> psyphen_: then you can do sudo dpkg -i foo.deb in a terminal
[05:36] <crouton> rpm?
[05:36] <Lattyware> And mine also continues audio even after I quit it
[05:36] <Rookie-> as i sadi ... remove the pkg ...
[05:36] <Lattyware> I have to kill it
[05:36] <mcphail> quiet: you haven't installed the correct package
[05:36] <crouton> quiet - did you do 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` ?
[05:36] <jatt> Lattyware: strange. With AVI files I've never had any problems with vlc at all
[05:37] <psyphen_> i'll try that Ng thanks
[05:37] <Ng> Rookie-: that's a stunningly bad idea, run "apt-cache rdepends libfreetype6" and you'll see why ;)
[05:37] <Machtyn> question:  I added a repository, but after reloading it complains to me about a GPG error.  How do I resolve this? (Get a GPG key? How do I do that?)
[05:37] <ardchoille> crouton: You probably have an rpm dir inside /usr/src too
[05:37] <ompaul> crouton, Click on menu applications -> accessories -> terminal
[05:37] <crouton> not I. :)
[05:37] <crouton> don't touch the stuff, gives me indigestion.
[05:37] <ciscosurfer> jaakkos: search UbuntuForums for "firefox sound flash"
[05:38] <psyphen_> awesome it's working thanks a lot dude
[05:38] <ardchoille> crouton: Then yo removed it ;)
[05:38] <psyphen_> youre a lifesaver :P
[05:38] <crouton> ardchoille: Never had it. :)
[05:38] <Rookie-> still belive that the deps will be installed with the other version of the lib
[05:38] <Lattyware> jatt: Probably because 90% of my video is .mkv/.ogg, which means each one probably uses a different wierd obsure codec. :P
[05:38] <dmglouis> see I have a screenshot: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v716/dmglouis/Screenshot.png
[05:38] <Lattyware> The price I pay for Anime.
[05:38] <crouton> CCCP codec pack for the win
[05:38] <quiet> ah.. that's it... i was trying kernel-headers... not linux-headers
[05:39] <Lattyware> crouton: That's windows-only.
[05:39] <Lattyware> I used to use it
[05:39] <crouton> Lattyware: I know. :(
[05:39] <psyphen_> ok one last thing before i stop being annoying, has anybody else successfully installed airpwn?
[05:39] <superkirbyartis1> Webcam freezes in ubuntu draper.
[05:39] <Lattyware> Thier suggestion is mplayer, but that allways goes out of sync with audio and video for me
[05:39] <psyphen_> i have major problems with programs not recogizing installed libraries in ubuntu
[05:39] <crouton> if CCCP and uTorrent existed for Ubuntu, I could probably drop Windows entirely except for Eve Online.
[05:39] <superkirbyartis1> Help me pleaes.
[05:39] <Lattyware> crouton: uTorrent works great under wine
[05:39] <Lattyware> I use it
[05:40] <Lattyware> I was so happy
[05:40] <Lattyware> I swear by that client.
[05:40] <ciscosurfer> crouton: Eve looks amazing
[05:40] <superkirbyartis1> WEBCAM FREEZES HELP ME!
[05:40] <crouton> Lattyware: I haven't ever used Wine, I prefer VMWare server and install XP as a VM
[05:40] <dmglouis> Azureus ports warning does not go away. Can anyone help?
[05:40] <crouton> ciscosurfer: Yes it does. :)
[05:40] <KenSentMe> I've managed to get dual screen working, but then i can't use 3d accelleration. Is it possible to adjust grub so at boot i can choose between loading the xorg.conf file for dual screen or the other for 3d?
[05:40] <mcphail> psyphen_: libraries installed manually or by apt-get?
[05:40] <Ng> crouton: I would think that mostly everything CCCP covers can be played by mplayer, xine and totem
[05:40] <Lattyware> crouton: Yeah, but my PC is a 1.6GHz Semperon. Yeah.
[05:40] <psyphen_> manually
[05:41] <iturk> hi there !! i can run eclipse from a shell because i have set the path for jre in .bashrc in my home directory !! But if i try to create an icon in my kde desktop that links to eclipse it says jre not found !! How can i set the environment varibles for being recognise by all the system ??
[05:41] <psyphen_> i'm getting an error while loading shared libraries, although the libraries are installed
[05:41] <ciscosurfer> dmglouis: you can chmod or chown the azureus directory and restart it to fix this problem
[05:41] <crouton> Lattyware: No problem, you don't need a beast to watch Anime.  Maybe 384MB RAM would work great for an XP VM.
[05:41] <dmglouis> what?
[05:41] <mcphail> psyphen_: man ldconfig
[05:41] <Lattyware> hmmm
[05:41] <dmglouis> ciscosurfer:how do I do that
[05:41] <psyphen_> boris@goldeneye:~/Desktop$ airpwn
[05:41] <psyphen_> airpwn: error while loading shared libraries: liborcon-1.0.0.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:41] <psyphen_> boris@goldeneye:~/Desktop$ locate liborcon-1.0.0.so
[05:41] <psyphen_> /home/boris/Desktop/lorcon/.libs/liborcon-1.0.0.so
[05:41] <psyphen_> /usr/local/lib/liborcon-1.0.0.so
[05:41] <psyphen_> boris@goldeneye:~/Desktop$
[05:41] <psyphen_> there's an example
[05:41] <Lattyware> !pastebin
[05:41] <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)
[05:42] <psyphen_> haha im sorry lattyware
[05:42] <Ng> psyphen_: add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and run sudo ldconfig
[05:42] <Lattyware> :P
[05:42] <psyphen_> thanks very much Ng
[05:42] <psyphen_> sorry for being noobish hehe
[05:42] <Lattyware> And it makes me look like I know stuff! :P
[05:42] <Ng> psyphen_: no probs, that's why we're here :)
[05:42] <psyphen_> i'm trying to get good enough at ubuntu and linux in general so that i can throw windows aside
[05:42] <psyphen_> :P
[05:42] <psyphen_> right now im dualbooting
[05:42] <Tarandus> Is there a way to configure network-manager so that it will not ask for password every time I connect to a WLAN?
[05:43] <mcphail> psyphen_: the ldconfig thing is a bit obscure
[05:43] <skizzo> psyphen_- Me too, but I can't give up windows yet
[05:43] <dmglouis> ciscosurfer:Can you tell me how to do that?
[05:43] <Lattyware> psyphen_: I dual XP/Ubuntu, and I havn't booted windows since I installed Ubuntu.
[05:43] <Lattyware> :D
[05:43] <Ng> Tarandus: it ought to save the password for a network in your gnome keyring, but whichever application accesses that first will have to ask for the password
[05:43] <skizzo> psyphen_- There's just too much that I can't do in linux
[05:43] <claus> When i edit a .dat file in terminal as bin, how do I save?
[05:44] <Lattyware> I guess I'm not much of a gamer, and UT2004 is the one game I play alot, so it's good :D
[05:44] <psyphen_> haha nice latty
[05:44] <psyphen_> yeah it's true, i game a lot
[05:44] <psyphen_> but god ubuntu is nice for laptops
[05:44] <psyphen_> im on an averatec 2150-EH1 right now
[05:44] <psyphen_> ubuntu rocks
[05:44] <Lattyware> Ubuntu is a hell of alot faster on my crappy mashine.
[05:44] <crouton> psyphen_: ooh. I'm on an averatec as well, might have to give ubuntu a try
[05:44] <Lattyware> </rubbish spelling>
[05:44] <psyphen_> you definitely do
[05:44] <psyphen_> what model?
[05:44] <phaedrus44> Lattyware: do you use gnome?
[05:45] <Lattyware> Nah, Xfce.
[05:45] <Tarandus> Ng: Some say that making the keyring password the same as one's login password would allow it to "try" it once without prompting, but this far i've been unsuccessful.
[05:45] <phaedrus44> i installed server install with only fluxbox and it is fast as hell
[05:45] <crouton> psyphen_: 6130, with the RALink wireless chipset
[05:45] <Lattyware> Heh, I've used Fluxbox alot
[05:45] <Lattyware> DSL.
[05:45] <phaedrus44> its nice
[05:45] <Ng> Tarandus: I've not heard that, although there is a pam module that claims to do that (but I haven't had any joy from it on dapper as yet)
[05:45] <spiderworm> !samba
[05:45] <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
[05:45] <claus> Can anyone help with my question?
[05:45] <Lattyware> On my Xbox actually.
[05:45] <Rookie-> no GUI at all on my servers
[05:45] <phaedrus44> sweet
[05:46] <Lattyware> I am Microsoft's worst nightmare of a user :P
[05:46] <phaedrus44> to get rid of islsm on startup do i just blacklist it?
[05:46] <crouton> i'd love to go no GUI on my ubuntu servers, but i need to connect via VNC to do the VMWare console stuff.
[05:46] <ciscosurfer> dmglouis: sorry, stepped away from compuer
[05:46] <ardchoille> Lattyware: My idea of "dual boot" is Ubuntu Dapper Drake and Ubuntu Edgy Eft
[05:46] <dmglouis> ciscosurfer:np
[05:46] <Lattyware> heh
[05:46] <psyphen_> yeah i have a ralink rt2500 right now too
[05:46] <ciscosurfer> dmglouis: can i pm you?
[05:46] <Gorgapor> !pdf
[05:46] <ubotu> pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/gpdf, evince and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source)
[05:46] <crouton> psyphen_: sweet. might do that this weekend then
[05:46] <dmglouis> ciscosurfer:sure
[05:46] <[b] urk> ardchoille, haha
[05:46] <psyphen_> it auto recognizes the rt2500
[05:46] <crouton> psyphen_: any gotchas?
[05:47] <Lattyware> I hate PDF.
[05:47] <Gorgapor> is there a good way to edit/create pdf files ?
[05:47] <psyphen_> it doesn't have auto screen dimming and stuff
[05:47] <claus> !rt61
[05:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rt61 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:47] <searayman> how can i run flash player 9 in wine?
[05:47] <jatt> Gorgapor: to create pdf files: pdflatex
[05:47] <psyphen_> and i dont think it has as advanced of a power management and cpu throttler
[05:47] <claus> !ralink 61
[05:47] <Ng> Gorgapor: yes, use something else and just "print" it to PDF when you are happy with it
[05:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ralink 61 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:47] <Rookie-> !pdfcreator
[05:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pdfcreator - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:47] <Ng> claus: actually editing PDF files is almost impossible, even with Adobe's own software
[05:47] <Lattyware> It's amazing, I use Red for my hilight colour, and yet, when I scroll through, I actually miss all of the red stuff.
[05:48] <Gorgapor> jatt: what if i already have a pdf file and i need to edit it?
[05:48] <Ng> err, that last one was for Gorgapor, not claus ;)
[05:48] <claus> ^
[05:48] <peppo> is there a web interface to see what libraries a binary links to?
[05:48] <claus> ^^
[05:48] <psyphen_> overall the power management is not as great
[05:48] <crouton> psyphen - the 6130 is running a desktop P4 3.0ghz with absolutely no power throttling anyway. Really sucks, battery life is less than 1 hour.  And it's heavy! (8+ pounds)
[05:48] <psyphen_> other than that, its amazing
[05:48] <psyphen_> well then linux shoud be great
[05:48] <psyphen_> haha
[05:48] <searayman> how can i run flash player 9 in wine?
[05:48] <peppo> does a page like http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/sound/linuxsampler for example list all libraries a binary is linked to somewhere?
[05:48] <psyphen_> i have the turion 64 so it cuts the speed in half when it's idling
[05:48] <psyphen_> relaly nice for temperatures
[05:48] <Ng> peppo: ldd /usr/bin/somebinary  can tell you, or packages.ubuntu.com can show you what other packages something depends on
[05:48] <donrosin> ho do i installl ftp server for linux?
[05:48] <peppo> Ng, I'm not on ubuntu
[05:49] <psyphen_> donrosin: just install vsftpd from synaptic or apt-get
[05:49] <RadiantFire> donrosin: there are a number of ftp servers, I suggest you search for ftp server in synaptic
[05:49] <claus> Anyone has experience with RT61 wireless or can help me with some probs i got with the following guide: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132980
[05:49] <Ng> peppo: then packages.ubuntu.com is probably your best bet

[05:52] <Rookie-> donrosin - sudo apt-get install synaptic
[05:52] <Gorgapor> donrosin it's usually already there at install time
[05:52] <Lattyware> I've allways liked AMD, but heck, If there is somthing faster by Intel Fanboyism < Speed.
[05:53] <crouton> Conroe is faster and sometimes cheaper, but it's hideously out of stock right now
[05:53] <Rookie-> faster then intel or amd ? xeon or sparc is way faster
[05:53] <claus> isnt there anyone who can help me, or should i just spam some more.. lol
[05:53] <PurpleTet> ok, ive just followed this how-to, but when i tried it, it says package cant be found

[05:53] <donrosin> how do i use synaptic ?
[05:53] <psyphen_> oh btw guys, i just tried the ldconfig

[05:53] <claus> Anyone has experience with RT61 wireless or can help me with some probs i got with the following guide: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132980

[05:53] <zoidberg> guys can i see/edit/change my network settings from a command line
[05:53] <zoidberg> ?
[05:53] <skizzo> claus- your question isn't very clear - what are you trying to do?
[05:54] <donrosin> how do i use synaptic ?
[05:54] <PurpleTet> just goto donrosin
[05:54] <billybennett> Hey guys, today I've been trying to burn a data dvd disc but k3b nor GnomeBaker has worked for me.  Does anyone have anything I could try to figure out why I cant burn anything
[05:54] <crouton> zoidberg - what do you mean change them?  you can see your current IP by typing 'ifconfig'
[05:54] <skizzo> claus- oh, that's a different question than what you asked before
[05:54] <CheetahMk2> Click System->Administration->Synaotic package manager
[05:54] <Rookie-> zoidberg - look in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:54] <zoidberg> i mean how can i configure my settings
[05:54] <jatt> zoidberg: it depends on your network connection
[05:54] <Lattyware> ugh, lag.
[05:54] <NaDALL> I think, that Flash Player will install automaticlly when your Firefox ask to install
[05:54] <ardchoille> claus: If someone knows, they will reply. If you spam, you end up taking the chance that someone who *can* help you will put you on ignore.
[05:54] <crouton> zoidberg - from CLI, you could edit /etc/network/interfaces
[05:55] <Lattyware> I hate it when you get about 2 minutes of conversation in a second.
[05:55] <Rookie-> if you use caps .... Im one to be afk
[05:55] <zoidberg> what is CLI
[05:55] <evan_w00> but the flash is an older version
[05:55] <crouton> but isn't faster better?
[05:55] <zoidberg> ?
[05:55] <ardchoille> zoidberg: Command Line Interface
[05:55] <crouton> CLI = command line interface

[05:55] <josesito> how can i know the name of the audio device v4l uses??
[05:55] <Rookie-> Well, find the pkg and install it
[05:56] <evan_w00> How do I upgrade Firefox? should I uninstall it first?
[05:56] <PurpleTet> rookie where?
[05:56] <claus> ofc, ardchoille but i dont reckon that someone who actually can help me will look over 20 pages of irc chat..
[05:56] <ardchoille> PurpleTet: Which package?
[05:56] <PurpleTet> the no-ip one
[05:56] <PurpleTet> i just followed the how-to on that site
[05:56] <josesito> please?
[05:56] <Rookie-> you got an error msg what pkg its failing on ? then take that name and do sudo apt-get install pkgname
[05:57] <psyphen_> evan_w00: you can also use synaptic, it makes things a little more noobfriendly
[05:57] <billybennett> Can someone help me troubleshoot why I cannot burn anything today?  I've tried both programs I had k3b and Gnomebaker
[05:57] <ardchoille> claus: Not true, when I come back from away, I always scroll up and see what I missed.
[05:57] <richiefrich> evan_w00 apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:57] <Rookie-> PurpleTet - i run no-ip my self
[05:57] <Netcad> i've got this server i'm trying to install ubuntu 6.06 on. it's got a ncch-dl motherboard with adaptec raid as well as promise fastrak raid. problem is, even if i've set up the two SATA disks to be raid-1 using the adaptec raid config thing.ubuntu still detects them as 2 SATA disks. i tried starting ubuntu installer with "install aic7xxx=no_probe".am i missing something?
[05:58] <PurpleTet> ohk
[05:58] <PurpleTet> did you get it from the apt?
[05:58] <untung> Hello, have anyone use ubuntu for dual core processor?
[05:58] <Rookie-> yes
[05:58] <PurpleTet> ohk
[05:58] <Rookie-> i check wfrom where
[05:58] <richiefrich> aptitude  is better
[05:58] <PurpleTet> weh ni do it, it says "couldnt find package no-ip"
[05:58] <crouton> netcad - need to load the drivers for that adaptec RoMB
[05:59] <claus> ardchoille: okay, i'm sorry then. I'll ask tomorrow again maybe.
[05:59] <Rookie-> must be in universe
[05:59] <crouton> netcad - what chipset is the adaptec?
[05:59] <ardchoille> claus: Or you can try ubuntuforums.org
[05:59] <Rookie-> !no-ip
[05:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about no-ip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:59] <Rookie-> !info no-ip
[05:59] <ubotu> no-ip: A second-generation Linux client for dynamic DNS service. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (dapper), package size 19 kB, installed size 128 kB
[05:59] <PurpleTet> Rookie-: this is what i typed " sudo apt-get install no-ip "
[06:00] <Rookie-> check your source.list
[06:00] <crouton> PurpleTet: have you enabled 'universe' as a repository?
[06:00] <PurpleTet> ermm dont think so, how would i do that?
[06:00] <Rookie-> no-ip - A second-generation Linux client for dynamic DNS service
[06:00] <ardchoille> PurpleTet: Enable universe, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install no-ip
[06:00] <Rookie-> go to /etc/apt/source.list
[06:00] <crouton> PurpleTet: 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and uncomment any lines that have 'universe' at the end
[06:00] <shrift> phaedrus44: you can add programs to start when you log in with an option in the "sessions" menu, under System>Preferences. Is that what youa re looking for?
[06:01] <crouton> then do what ardchoille just suggested
[06:01] <delire> i've just installed Dapper on a system with an RTL8139C/C+ ethernet card, and it hasn't been detected on install. running lspci shows that the card is seen but i have no eth0, even despite ensuring the 8139 and 8139too drivers are loaded. does anyone have information about this card on Ubuntu?
[06:01] <crouton> hi nalioth
[06:01] <Netcad> crouton :  i'm not entirely sure.i tried looking it up in the mobo manual.it's not there
[06:01] <Rookie-> i use 8139too NIC ... no probs with it ... some configs but no probs
[06:01] <crouton> netcad - if you can take a look at the chip itself, it'll help
[06:01] <nalioth> hi
[06:02] <crouton> or just post the mobo model
[06:02] <synic> delire: is that the gigabit?
[06:02] <delire> Rookie-: right, which configs? are you talking about /etc/network/interfaces?
[06:02] <delire> synic: no it's not.
[06:02] <synic> delire: you don't see it if you do ifconfig -a ?
[06:02] <Rookie-> nah ... modprobe.conf and blacklist ....
[06:02] <Netcad> crouton:  googling gets me aic8130
[06:02] <psyphen_> well im out, thanks agai nfor the help guys
[06:02] <billybennett> Can someone help me figure out why I suddently cannot burn any discs?
[06:02] <NaDALL> how to enable 3D on Sapphire Radeon 9600?
[06:03] <billybennett> please :)
[06:03] <crouton> aic8130.. hmm
[06:03] <Rookie-> you can tro fealnx too .... works well with realtec NIC
[06:03] <Rookie-> try*
[06:03] <claus> ardchoille: thats where im at, but im stuck in the middle of a guide, and cant get further. Its just a question of saving a .dat file after i've edited it with "vi -b rt61sta.dat"
[06:03] <phaedrus44> shrift: thanks but i use fluxbox and nog noome or kde
[06:03] <PurpleTet> is the 686 unsupported?
[06:03] <shrift> phaedrus44: I see, that does make things a bit more difficult.
[06:03] <J_P> hey i not find nothin ubuntu hosting in google, anyone know anyone ?
[06:04] <phaedrus44> so i still need to know what file to add the conky &  ,  xchat & too
[06:04] <J_P> I need one colocation (server location) in the web that install ubuntu in servers.
[06:04] <shrift> phaedrus44: from what I can tell what your asking, you actually want the apps to start when you log into the windows manager, right?
[06:04] <ardchoille> claus: If you've edited a file in vi, press the ESC key and type ":wq" (without quotes) and that will save the file and exit the vi editor
[06:04] <Rookie-> J_P - why just ubuntu ? you know an exploit you wanna use ;) ?
[06:04] <kernco> Does anyone know where you can download more applets for the Gnome Panel?
[06:04] <phaedrus44> shrift: sure
[06:04] <shrift> phaedrus44: because that is very desktop specific, as agnome user I don't know how you would do that.
[06:04] <Midnight_Ubuntu> When is Edgy Eft scheduled to be finalized?
[06:04] <delire> synic: right, what did you do to modprobe.conf?
[06:04] <Ng> Midnight_Ubuntu: late october
[06:04] <jbroome> October
[06:05] <phaedrus44> excue me
[06:05] <synic> delire: I've never had to do anything with rtl8139 - they have always just worked out of the box
[06:05] <ompaul> phaedrus44, that is not a ubuntu question ubuntu is GNOME ;-)
[06:05] <delire> Rookie-: yeah they have always for me in the past, though i'm a Debian user habitually.
[06:05] <synic> delire: dmesg | grep 8139
[06:05] <Netcad> crouton : but just to be sure, if hardware raid is setup, i should only see 1 harddisk during the install, yes?
[06:05] <shrift> phaedrus44: I would ask this question to the forums of fluxbox rather than there. This is a channel for Ubuntu on the Gnome desktop.
[06:05] <delire> Rookie-: ok, so the 'fealnx' works?
[06:05] <Rookie-> delire - ok, im a slack fan ... testing ubuntu
[06:06] <delire> synic: yes it's there and detected, i can't get to the machine right now to give you specific dmesg output.
[06:06] <crouton> Netcad - if the drivers were correctly loaded, yes.
[06:06] <quiet> who was it that was running vmware-server??
[06:06] <crouton> Netcad: if not, it wouldn't know and would only see the 2 drives.
[06:06] <Kimppa> Hello. How do I configure locales in dapper. dpkg-reconfigure locales didn't work :/
[06:06] <Rookie-> yes, i have another server with slack, and realtec cards, running fealnx on one card and 8139too on the other card
[06:06] <crouton> quiet - I am
[06:06] <synic> delire: just trying to see if it loaded more than one module to try to support it.  That would 'cause you problems.
[06:06] <quiet> what is the ownership of the virtual machine directory crouton?
[06:06] <crouton> netcad - i'm not seeing much help for the aic8130 chip, sorry.
[06:06] <delire> synic: yes both the 8139cp and 8139too are loaded..
[06:06] <quiet> i have a partition with a Windows XP VM on it..
[06:07] <crouton> quiet - you need to assign it to yourself
[06:07] <delire> synic: on Debian the rtl8139 uses 8139too
[06:07] <synic> delire: you could try blacklisting one or the other.  Try blacklisting 8139cp first.
[06:07] <quiet> i was using it through CentOS but switched to Ubuntu
[06:07] <delire> synic: ok, will do. where is the blacklisting done in Ubuntu?
[06:07] <PurpleTet> Rookie-: ive uncommented all of them, still no luck
[06:07] <crouton> quiet - see who owns that directory
[06:07] <Febs> Hi folks.  I've just installed Ubuntu and I am having trouble accessing my hard drives.  I can see them using disks admin, but I get a permissions error when I try to browse them.
[06:07] <Febs> I'm trying to figure out sudo.
[06:07] <ompaul> phaedrus44, that is not a ubuntu question ubuntu is GNOME ;-)
[06:07] <chungaroo> is my wireless card supposed to light up when i plug it in? i set it up according to several guides but it's still not working
[06:07] <quiet> crouton, it hass 500  500
[06:07] <Rookie-> PurpleTet - run sudo apt-get update first
[06:07] <claus> ardchoille: thank you, you're a life saver
[06:08] <PurpleTet> ohk
[06:08] <quiet> should I chown it to root:root?  or quiet:quiet?
[06:08] <synic> delire: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[06:08] <delire> synic: ah same as Debian. good..
[06:08] <quiet> nevermind i got it
[06:08] <crouton> quiet - chown to quiet:quiet or quiet:users should work
[06:08] <quiet> quiet:quiet worked :)
[06:08] <ardchoille> claus: You're welcome :)
[06:08] <crouton> did you do chown -R?
[06:08] <quiet> yes
[06:08] <quiet> of course
[06:08] <ompaul> crouton, debian and ubuntu use username:username
[06:09] <quiet> crouton, do you know if you can have sound inside of a VM? or does that not work?
[06:09] <Rookie-> all systems uses that ... comes from unix
[06:09] <mixandgo> does anyone use linuxsampler with jackd ? cause it seems brooken on my machine
[06:09] <xnull968> e
[06:09] <chungaroo> does anyone know anything about setting up a belkin wireless card in dapper?
[06:09] <ompaul> Rookie-, some use username:group
[06:09] <Netcad> crouton : yeah, same here heh. No worries.
[06:09] <park_canada> i cant switch language layout in my keyboard. what to do ?
[06:09] <Rookie-> yea, thats default
[06:09] <phaedrus44> ompaul:   is ther a fluxbox ubuntu ? ..hehe
[06:10] <quiet> ompaul, nubuntu
[06:10] <zanpakuto> hello, during installation (text mode), there is a nice partitioning program, what is it called and is it possible to execute it again after installation?
[06:10] <synic> zanpakuto: I nice and easy one is cfdisk... though it's not the same one as in the instlaler
[06:10] <chungaroo> the model number is f5d7011
[06:10] <ompaul> phaedrus44, there is at least one project doing that
[06:10] <josesito> please!! can someone help me?
[06:10] <Rookie-> i prefer fdisk ... but i think its a question of taste ...
[06:10] <quiet> zanpakuto, i believe that is part of the debian-installer and not accessible after install... however, cfdisk is nice.
[06:11] <shrift> josesito: what is your problem?
[06:11] <phaedrus44> ompaul: really  any links or search words?
[06:11] <josesito> shrift, i need to capture a video from my tv-card
[06:11] <josesito> but i don't know how
[06:11] <ompaul> phaedrus44, I was looking   http://www.fluxbuntu.org/
[06:11] <zanpakuto> synic, quiet : yup. What I like about it is the lvm/raid configuration functionality that comes with it
[06:11] <ompaul> phaedrus44, don't know what its state of readyness is
[06:12] <skizzo> josesito- what TV card do you have?
[06:12] <phaedrus44> oww
[06:12] <phaedrus44> wow
[06:12] <josesito> i'm trying with vlc, but i see only video, no audio
[06:12] <shrift> jesesito: hmmm sorry I don't know either, but if you hang around.... someone should be able to help

[06:12] <caero> Has anyone else had some weird login problems after installing kismet&ethereal through synaptic and then rebooting?
[06:12] <Rookie-> 880 usersw online ... someone might know
[06:12] <Subhuman> joeljkp, try xawtv or kdetv (get them from synaptic)
[06:12] <caero> I log in, then it goes to some kind of command line login for 1 sec and then boots me back to the gnome login screen again
[06:13] <joeljkp> subhuman: wrong person
[06:13] <josesito> Subhuman, does xawtv record?
[06:14] <Subhuman> josesito, im not sure, if you want to record, try mythtv
[06:14] <josesito> Subhuman, i tried installing mythtv but i couldn't
[06:14] <skizzo> josesito- does your sound work in general?
[06:14] <Rookie-> !mythtv
[06:14] <ubotu> mythtv is for watching TV in Linux.  Check out http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/16/instructions-to-install-mythtv/
[06:15] <xst> For some reason my ubuntu installation has ext2 as file system instead of ext3. This causes a very anoying fschk every 30 mount. How can I convert the ext2 to ext3?
[06:15] <PurpleTet> thanks Rookie- and crouton
[06:15] <josesito> skizzo, yes it does
[06:15] <Rookie-> np - works now ?
[06:15] <PurpleTet> yep
[06:15] <josesito> skizzo, i can actually view tv with tvtime perfectly
[06:15] <Warbo> xst: tune2fs can do it. Try the manual for it
[06:15] <PurpleTet> well i hope so
[06:15] <Rookie-> you made the config file ?
[06:15] <seikon> nabend
[06:16] <xst> But why is ubuntu installed with ext2 as default?
[06:16] <Rookie-> server is ext3 by default
[06:16] <delire> synic: i got to the machine. grepping the dmesg output on inserting the 8139too module i get "probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error 16"
[06:16] <Warbo> xst: It isn't normally (by the way, ext2 and ext3 are basically identical, so you may have mounted your ext3 as ext2)
[06:16] <skizzo> josesito- looks like it's a problem with more than one person. The only way I can help is to point you here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186808
[06:17] <J_P> Rookie-: becouse my server is ubuntu!
[06:17] <peti21> hi everyone!
[06:17] <xst> Warbo: I just used the installer to install and haven't touched the filesystem mounting options since then.
[06:17] <shrift> hello!
[06:17] <delire> synic: trying the with 8139cp module, i get the error pci dev [...]  is not an 8139C+ compatible chip
[06:17] <Rookie-> J_P - you can be the first host then :)
[06:17] <peti21> I would like to create an ISO image. Could someone help me how?
[06:18] <lindy> I created a DVD of data from a windoze machine, but when I look at it with Ubuntu all the file names have changed to that stupid 8 character format: abcdef1 (with tilde before 1).  Does anyone know what caused this?
[06:18] <skizzo> josesito- and an archive of a similar topic here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-187203.html
[06:18] <delire> synic: lspci gives the card as "8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)"
[06:18] <Warbo> xst: Apparently "sudo tune2fs -j /dev/whateverpartition" will add a journal. If it is / then you would probably need to do it from the LiveCD
[06:18] <Lattyware> Funniest Slashdot Story Title Of The Year: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/16/1315237&from=rss
[06:18] <xst> It is indeed the / partition. :-(
[06:19] <josesito> thanks skizzo
[06:19] <xst> Warbo: But thanks
[06:19] <Rookie-> delire - force it with the file modprobe.conf
[06:19] <Warbo> xst: Also check /etc/fstab to make sure it doesn't get mounted as ext2 again
[06:19] <Netcad> I have sound in gnome when I login using user1, but I don't have sound when I login using user2
[06:19] <skizzo> josesito- np - hope you figure it out
[06:19] <J_P> Rookie-: heeh you are right!
[06:20] <piller> where to discuss ubuntu liveCD bugs?
[06:20] <delire> Rookie-: alright, i'll give that a go. which driver would you reccommend though?
[06:20] <Rookie-> dunno
[06:20] <Rookie-> 8139too
[06:20] <delire> cheers, will give that a crack
[06:21] <Warbo> !bugs > piller
[06:21] <PurpleTet> hye Rookie- wit that no-ip client, does it run in the background? or do i need a shell up?
[06:21] <piller> Warbo: what's that?
[06:22] <Rookie-> PurpleTet - it runs like a demon
[06:22] <PurpleTet> ohk
[06:22] <x-s-> !limewire
[06:22] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[06:22] <PurpleTet> so it will start on startup too
[06:23] <Rookie-> yea, look in your /etc/rc*.d
[06:23] <PurpleTet> rc.d ?
[06:23] <Rookie-> server ?
[06:23] <Rookie-> rc2.d then
[06:23] <xst> Strange... I just looked in fstab and can now see that my partition IS mounted as ext3. But then I don't understand why a fschk is done every 30 mount (and upon the boot process it is claimed that it is an ext2 partition)
[06:23] <ciscosurfer> ext3 is ext2 with journaling
[06:23] <phaedrus44> duudes...where do i look to find out why my system is freeezing up ??
[06:24] <ardchoille> and fsck checks every 30 mounts is default behaviour
[06:24] <Rookie-> phaedrus44 - look in /var/log and the logfiles there
[06:24] <Rookie-> it can be good to look in dmesg and in syslog and in messages
[06:24] <PurpleTet> Rookie-:  ive found rc.local
[06:24] <phaedrus44> ther is a lot....of files..what would be the latest when freezinf occurs?
[06:24] <xst> but how can I turn the fsck off? There is really no need for it with the journal
[06:25] <lindy> peti21 -- check out the commands dd and mkisofs.  Also in issue 69 of Linux Magazine was an article on this.

[06:25] <xst> ciscosurfer: Thanks
[06:25] <ciscosurfer> xst: np
[06:25] <shrift> phaedrus44: I don't mean to be unhelpful, but are you even using ubuntu?
[06:26] <PurpleTet> princess marry
[06:26] <Rookie-> caero - try dk
[06:26] <xst> caero: no, not at freenode
[06:26] <shrift> phaedrus44: because if not we're really not the place to ask questions....
[06:26] <lindy> phaesdrus44 - i had a system instability problem when I first built my machine. turned out to be settings in the bios that were incompatible with the video card.
[06:26] <Rookie-> #ubuntu.dk ....
[06:26] <phaedrus44> shrift:   hehe yeah...thats why i am here   : )
[06:26] <Kimppa> caero: try ubuntu.dk at ircnet

[06:27] <ubotu> Ubuntu diskussion paa dansk kan foeres i #ubuntu-dk
[06:27] <Rookie-> very few ppl in that channel ;)
[06:27] <x-s-> !java
[06:27] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[06:28] <ad> anyone know of an ubuntu issue that would be why my machine keeps freezing?
[06:28] <lindy> Has anyone else run into the problem where all the windoze long file names on a DVD are all 8 characters when looking at them from Ubuntu?
[06:28] <evan_w00> which folder are all programs installed in?
[06:29] <caero> I log in, then it goes to some kind of command line login for 1 sec and then boots me back to the gnome login screen again
[06:29] <caero> Has anyone else had some weird login problems after installing kismet&ethereal through synaptic and then rebooting?
[06:29] <Ng> lindy: the ISO format for CD/DVDs has stupid 8 character filename limits. There are two extensions to fix it, Joliet and RockRidge. Joliet is for windows and RockRidge is for UNIX. presumably the disc you have only has Joliet extensions
[06:30] <doublehp> Which alternate brother can I try ? ; Firefox/mozilla/konqueror all bug on a given site; dillo/elinks wont support Flash/Js; Opera can not be installed
[06:30] <void^> joliet is supported, though
[06:30] <mcphail> doublehp: why can't opera be installed?
[06:31] <srikanthssn> can anyone temme how to change my resolution.. got stuck on my ati with 640*480
[06:31] <ad> my machine keeps randomly freezing - could this be software related anyone?
[06:31] <Ng> void^: hmm
[06:31] <lindy> Ng: Oh that's it.  thanks very much.  Then I need to make sure the DVD is written using Joliet.  I did see some mention of that in Linux Mag.  Thanks!  Funny though, why does Windows read it ok?  Or does this mean I should be writing it with RockRidge AND Joliet?
[06:31] <doublehp> mcphail: apt says in my langage that there is no available version to be installed
[06:31] <Ng> void^: do you have a source for that? all i can find is an ancient patch against linux 2.1
[06:31] <skizzo> lindy- what program are you using to burn the disc in Windows?
[06:32] <doublehp> how to check all FLash/JS/Java are allowed on konqueror ?
[06:32] <mcphail> doublehp: you can't install an english version?
[06:32] <Ng> void^: nevermind, found it
[06:32] <void^> Ng: grep JOLIET /boot/config-*
[06:32] <lindy> skizzo - roxio ez cd creator.  :-)
[06:33] <doublehp> mcphail: Package opera is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[06:33] <mcphail> doublehp: do you have this repo: deb http://deb.opera.com/opera etch non-free ?
[06:33] <azcazandco> anyone used lexmark printers under ubuntu?  I have a p4350 all in one but I still haven't managed to get it running under ubuntu
[06:34] <doublehp> mcphail: *now* yes :)
[06:34] <mcphail> :)
[06:34] <skizzo> lindy- Okay, I can't help much (I use Nero) but you should be able to set the filesystem to "ISO 9660 + Joliet" before you burn it. I've used roxio, but I don't remember where that setting is off the top of my head.
[06:34] <lindy> skizzo and Ng: thanks a lot.
[06:35] <Sp4rKy> hi
[06:35] <perry_> hi, i'm trying to get my HP office jet 5610 All-in-one working, the printer works but sane won't pick up the scanner
[06:35] <lens> Do you guys think running easy ubuntu, or automatix or both is safe?
[06:35] <Sp4rKy> please amule is not running but says is running when i want to start it
[06:35] <Ng> lens: I would always recommend reading the docs and doing things yourself. it's not too tricky and you'll learn more :)
[06:35] <ad> how can i see what binaries a given user can execute with a list of all current users?
[06:35] <Sp4rKy> where is the lock file ?
[06:36] <lens> Ng, I'm just really impatient ... but you are right.
[06:36] <harisund> ad what exactly do you want to do?
[06:37] <Ng> lens: of the two, easyubuntu seems to have broken fewer machines
[06:37] <ardchoille> Sp4rKy: I am guessing in an amule folder in your $HOME ?
[06:37] <lens> Ng, Ok food for thought, thanks!
[06:37] <Shimfs> hi all
[06:38] <Sp4rKy> ardchoille, .amule yes, but i don't find any lockfile here
[06:38] <ardchoille> Sp4rKy: :(
[06:38] <Shimfs> i have just (reinstalled) ubuntu after it crashed in the middle of an installation
[06:38] <mcphail> Sp4rKy: try under /tmp/
[06:38] <Sp4rKy> no more result
[06:38] <Shimfs> when the installation crashed
[06:38] <ad> harisund: just get a list of what binaries each existing user has execute rights to
[06:39] <Shimfs> it would not load my desktop, and when i shutdown it made some unhealthy gfx stuff, colourfull lines crossing the creen
[06:39] <ad> harisund: guess I mean I'm checking for holes in system security
[06:39] <redflag> i just got a computer for a friend, who totally wiped out the harddrive before i got it, and gave me a warty live cd to use it. i want to install ubuntu, but i've no floppy drive, or burner. is there a way to bootstrap(?) the install from the live cd, say by mounting the iso in a loopback device?
[06:39] <Ng> ad: it's not ideal, but if you su to that user in a terminal and hit tab twice it will show you a list of ever executable in their path. NB that does *not* mean they can't execute other things, just that those are the things in $PATH
[06:39] <Shimfs> now i have reinstalled ubuntu with the best version, i got a 64bit and had installed 32bit
[06:39] <mcphail> ad: they'll have rights to everything in /bin, /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin by default
[06:39] <Shimfs> but it still makes unhealthy looking gfx when i shutdown, but now i can atleast log in
[06:40] <harisund> ad yes, I understand your point .. yes, what Ng said above is a good point ... but you can't really check for system holes that way. I mean, the list of binaries is just huge.
[06:40] <Shimfs> and i have had an error the whole time
[06:40] <Shimfs> my integrated WLAN wont work
[06:40] <redflag> does anyone have experience in installing ubuntu from a loopback device from a working linux install?
[06:40] <Shimfs> its a broadcom driver, and my gentoo friend says that linux have troubles with gentoo
[06:40] <perry_> anybody able to help me with xsane problems?
[06:40] <Shimfs> he suggested i downloaded ndiswrapper, but i dont know how to usei t :(
[06:40] <Shimfs> i would really like my wlan to work
[06:41] <perry_> specifically with an HP all-in-one printer/scanner?
[06:41] <harisund> Shimfs do you have the Windows drivers for the card?
[06:41] <lens> Ng... I have had so many install problems lately... absolutely nothing will compile... I don'tkn't   ow if it's me or what, but it prorpryy
[06:41] <harisund> Shimfs ndiswrapper wraps around your Windows drivers. So if you ahve the Windows drivers we could give it a try.
[06:41] <ad> harisund: fair enough, is there a more intelligent approach to this? app to find unusual rights?
[06:41] <Shimfs> where to i get them? i have a windows xp prof cd
[06:41] <Shimfs> but i deleted the recreation partition that followed with my laptop since i wanted xp prof
[06:42] <lens> Ng... lol, my keyboard just became very erratic... hmm.
[06:42] <harisund> Shimfs I understand that .. what wlan card is it? Do you know?
[06:42] <j0nas`> can someone help me with remote X?
[06:42] <Shimfs> it just says when i type lspci that its a broadcom corp. unknown device
[06:42] <spiderworm> !cifs
[06:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cifs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:42] <j0nas`> i ran xhost +my.ip.addy  on my client
[06:42] <harisund> ad I really am not sure ...sorry :) ...
[06:43] <j0nas`> then updated display on the remote machine to my.ip.addy:0
[06:43] <redflag> need some help installing in a weird situation
[06:43] <harisund> Shimfs can you paste the output of lspci somewhere on paste bin or as a private message to me. I am running a Broadcom 4318 card on a 32bit kernel and things are fine using ndiswraper.
[06:43] <ad> harisund no worries man :)
[06:43] <doublehp> mcphail: how do I get flash work in it ?
[06:43] <mcphail> ad: try things like chkrootkit
[06:44] <mcphail> doublehp: to be honest, i've never tried
[06:44] <ad> mcphail: does that cover all known risks?
[06:45] <ad> mcphail: or do i need several apps
[06:45] <doublehp> mcphail: had try it 4 y ago on Windows ... remembered ads problems ... still adds in Ubuntu, but does not freeze on my box like mozilla* and K do
[06:45] <mcphail> ad: i doubt it
[06:45] <mcphail> ad: there's also rootkithunter ? others
[06:45] <perry_> when i start xsane, it asks me which device to use, i choose the HP 5600 series and it gives me an error
[06:45] <ad> mcphail: thx
[06:45] <jbroome> apparently fire isn't the only thing that will kill Frankenstein
[06:45] <mcphail> doublehp: i don't think there are ads any more, are there?
[06:46] <perry_> failed to open device, error during device I/O
[06:46] <delire> Rookie-: no it's sadly not working. can you give me the line you used in modules.conf? it'd be a great help..
[06:46] <caero> Is there a way to check what goes wrong when trying to log in, and it boots me back to the login screen with no error?
[06:46] <mcphail> ad: please note that both of these programs will list as supspicious any directory starting with a dot
[06:47] <asfra> hi, i want do download ndisgtk and put it over on another machine using an usb-stick, how do i download?
[06:47] <lostinc> Is there a way to throttle the bandwidth that Synaptic uses up?
[06:47] <mcphail> ad: under certain dirs
[06:47] <doublehp> mcphail: looks like not, but still not good at using FF Flash plugin it *did* detect !
[06:48] <delire> anyone else here had problems with the 8139 failing on modprobe?
[06:48] <poison> anyone using 3ddesk?
[06:49] <doublehp> poison: lol :)
[06:50] <quiet> is ther any kind of applet for controlling services that start on boot... like the one in RHEL?
[06:50] <quiet> actually, i guess fedora has it too, i think.
[06:50] <Goblyn> is su a valid command in ubuntu?
[06:50] <mcphail> poison: i tried it a couple of years ago...
[06:51] <poison> I am trying to figure out how to get a shortcut key to launch 3ddesk I went through the docs with adding to gconf-editor and adding shortcut keys but the app does not launch
[06:51] <BurningClaws> Goblyn: yes
[06:51] <doublehp> Goblyn: sudo bash
[06:51] <BurningClaws> Goblyn: sudo -s -H
[06:51] <BurningClaws> and the # passwd
[06:51] <ad> anyone ever had dapper freeze? - screen frozen EXCEPT CURSOR + no response to ANY KEYPRESSES? gotta be hardware?
[06:51] <BurningClaws> and su will work (:
[06:52] <Goblyn> BurningClaws: what do you mean # passwd?
[06:52] <mcphail> ad: can you ssh to the box?
[06:52] <BurningClaws> # - means root
[06:52] <perry_> can someone help me figure out why xsane can't open my scanner?
[06:52] <ardchoille> Goblyn: su is a valid command, but it shouldn't work by itself in ubuntu because the root account is disabled.
[06:52] <BurningClaws> Goblyn: when you do 'sudo -s -H' then u'll get root (:
[06:52] <lostinc> so there is no way to throttle the bandwidth of a compter?
[06:53] <Goblyn> gah!
[06:53] <Goblyn> i'm trying to compile wine, and it uses su instead of sudo while i'm compiling it, but if i try to run it as root user, it won't let me compile it
[06:53] <ad> mcphail: good q. not tried yet: consider my help request on hold til i do :)
[06:54] <doublehp> Goblyn: not my fault :D

[06:55] <mcphail> Goblyn: what do you mean "it uses su instead of sudo"???
[06:55] <cry0gen> sudo su?
[06:55] <gebruiker123> How do I make sure then whe I invoke adduser the user is added to the group "audio"?
[06:55] <cry0gen> fastest way to root for me
[06:55] <cry0gen> change the passwd from there
[06:55] <cry0gen> or sudo passwd

[06:55] <Sythen> I am running an XChat systeminfo script, and the problem is that it was working yesterday, then I added my windows partition to fstab, and now the script outputs "pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices" 3 times before the system info part. It works correctly though.

[06:56] <ardchoille> cry0gen: Please don't tell people to enable the root account. It is unsupported config and can cause problems later.
[06:56] <Gorth> How should I go about enabling my wireless network (ipw2200) if it isn't detected during install? It doesn't show up in the network-admin

[06:58] <mcphail> Goblyn: just run "sudo make install"

[06:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ndisgtk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:58] <ardchoille> Goblyn: You can make install with:  sudo make install
[06:59] <Warbo> !checkinstall
[06:59] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall  -  Please: Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page.
[06:59] <Sythen> I am running an XChat systeminfo script, and the problem is that it was working yesterday, then I added my windows partition to fstab, and now the script outputs "pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices" 3 times before the system info part. It works correctly though.
[06:59] <mcphail> Goblyn: why are you compiling wine anyway? The wine repo has the latest version.
[06:59] <DanC> I feel silly. I can't find the form for submitting a new support request from https://launchpad.net/people/connolly/+tickets

[07:01] <perry_> shalom
[07:01] <P[O] D> i got an ubuntu disc
[07:01] <P[O] D> 6.06
[07:01] <P[O] D> n i wanna update my current ver (5.10) how can i do it?

[07:01] <perry_> apt-get dist-upgrade :P
[07:02] <park_canada> i cant switch language layout in my keyboard. what to do ?
[07:02] <perry_> use the disc as a coaster
[07:02] <asfra> ardchoille, it is ndisgtk, it's a gui to ndiswrapper for wireless drivers
[07:02] <perry_> or if you are a good shot, a target for skeet shooting
[07:02] <P[O] D> but i want to upgrade from the disc
[07:02] <cntb> hi all IL guys

[07:02] <Tarandus> Everything else is ok, but for some reason it does not run wpa_supplicant
[07:02] <perry_> is IL illinois or israel?
[07:03] <perry_> :)
[07:03] <ardchoille> asfra: It's not a good idea to install a .deb file unless you know that .deb was made for Ubuntu. It's always best to check the repos before installing via .deb or compiling

[07:05] <ardchoille> asfra: You're welcome :)
[07:06] <hav0k> does anyone know anything about gcompizthemer and cgwd?
[07:06] <sethk> Netcad, you can add firefox to the "send url to" list.  You can also set the browser to use.  It isn't set in xchat, it is set in the desktop configuration, kde or gnome typically.
[07:06] <cntb> perry_: back
[07:06] <sethk> Netcad, xchat doesn't have its own setting, it uses the desktop's setting.
[07:06] <cntb> so what brand is your SCanner
[07:06] <perry_> cntb: hp officejet 5600
[07:07] <Stabwound> anyone know of a decent binary usenet reader/downloader? Can't seem to find one
[07:07] <perry_> the printer works fine, the scanner doesn't...in windows, everything is beautiful
[07:07] <daveb> when I choose suspend or hibernate i get a message from gnome-power-manager that it didn't work and a link to the FAQ, but he FAQ doesn't mention where ot how to figure out what went wrong.
[07:07] <cntb> I see it is a combined machine
[07:07] <ardchoille> Netcad: ask in #xchat, they helped me get my right-click things sorted.
[07:07] <hav0k> nobody knows about compiz and gcompizthemer?
[07:07] <Goblyn> if i were trying to install a patch for wine, which file would i patch?

[07:10] <phaedrus44> my system will run for a while, time varies, and then freeze, no mouse movement or anything just stops..
[07:10] <mcphail> ardchoille: my box is fine, but people are asking that question every hour or so on this channel
[07:10] <sethk> ardchoille, freezes are generally a kernel issue, not specific to a distro.  It is possible to hang the system.
[07:10] <ardchoille> mcphail: Oh, my bad :)
[07:10] <hav0k> Goblyn, did it not come with any sort of instructions
[07:10] <perry_> when i had windows exclusively, i often wanted to hang the system
[07:11] <sethk> phaedrus44, no triggering event?
[07:11] <ardchoille> sethk: I guess it depends on a lot of things, then
[07:11] <perry_> and shoot it, burn it, stab it, etc etc
[07:11] <sethk> ardchoille, yes; the cavaet is that the distro does patch the kernel.
[07:11] <Goblyn> hav0k: just told me to run patch -p0 then direct it to the patch file, well after i did that, it asked what file i wanted patched
[07:11] <phaedrus44> sethk:  no...i do different things and my system, freezes at different times
[07:11] <sethk> Goblyn, you have to have the source in place
[07:12] <sethk> phaedrus44, and nothing in the logs, no panic.  that's tough to find.
[07:12] <Goblyn> sethk: i do
[07:12] <michoelc> hi, how do i install the new ubuntu if i dont have enough RAM to run the live CD (i got 63Mb, and i installed the last version fine..) tia
[07:12] <sethk> Goblyn, the p0 means I'm running patch from the root of the source tree
[07:12] <sethk> Goblyn, if you have the source in place, you are probably running it from the wrong directory.
[07:12] <mcphail> michoelc: install from the alternate cd
[07:12] <phaedrus44> sethk:   yeah still looking through the logs...but to be honest i dont really know what to look for
[07:12] <Goblyn> sethk: ok
[07:12] <sethk> Goblyn, the patch file has the name of what is being patched in it, so look at it.
[07:13] <sethk> phaedrus44, anything unusual.  check messages and also syslog
[07:13] <sethk> phaedrus44, I realize that "anything unusual" isn't too helpful if you don't know what is usual.
[07:13] <mcphail> phaedrus44: kernel errors often aren't written to logs
[07:13] <phaedrus44> damn...
[07:13] <Goblyn> sethk: hehe, there it is!
[07:13] <Goblyn> sethk: thx
[07:14] <grte> Hey, I'm having a bit of trouble with my keyboard.
[07:14] <grte> It's just a couple of little things, and only affects certain programs, but I don't know how to fix it.
[07:14] <albacker> guys can someone suggest me a CD/DVD writer?
[07:14] <phaedrus44> does this look bad?   (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/wacom
[07:14] <phaedrus44> 	No such file or directory.
[07:14] <michoelc> mcphail: will they send me the alternate cd
[07:14] <Goblyn> sethk: now... after i patch the file... do you know how to compile wine?
[07:14] <sethk> phaedrus44, no
[07:14] <grte> For instance, the home and end keys no longer function in epiphany, and the right - and + keys do different functions than what they used to.
[07:15] <mcphail> michoelc: i'm not sure, i'm afraid. Can you download it?
[07:15] <nemtaro> hi, when running a command through a shell script with `command` , how can I have the output be shown on the screen?
[07:15] <sethk> Goblyn, usually from source, you do ./configure, then make, then make install
[07:15] <harisund> Can we run the VMware server on a 64 bit OS?
[07:15] <sethk> Goblyn, I'm not sure what the state of your source tree is, whether it has ever been configured.
[07:15] <mcphail> harisund: probably. You can run vmware workstation on 64 bit
[07:15] <sethk> nemtaro, set -v
[07:15] <michoelc> mcphail: the whole reason i use ubuntu is bc they send it to me, got no bandwidth..
[07:15] <sethk> nemtaro, also, use $(...), not `...`
[07:15] <mcphail> michoelc: where are you?
[07:16] <harisund> mcphail I want to run the free version that is available online :)
[07:16] <nemtaro> sethk, thanks, "set -v" in my script?
[07:16] <sethk> nemtaro, sometimes the -v doesn't "take" unless you add it to the script file itself
[07:16] <michoelc> mcphail: south africa
[07:16] <sethk> nemtaro, right.  at the end, add set +v
[07:16] <mcphail> harisund: yes, but that has come out after workstation, so will probably work
[07:16] <DJayC> Does anyone know how to make it so that Gnome wont show all minimized applications in the task bar on every virtual desktop?
[07:16] <harisund> mcphail ok thanks :)
[07:16] <michoelc> mcphail: got a 3gig limit p/m
[07:16] <nemtaro> sethk, thanks trying that now
[07:16] <mcphail> michoelc: isn't there a system in SA to take a blank cd to a shop and burn it?
[07:16] <hav0k> can anyone help me with a compiz problem?
[07:16] <njan> DJayC, there's an option for that in whatever applet it is that provides the window list
[07:16] <michoelc> mcphail: where would i find that out?
[07:16] <perry_> michoelc: 3 gigs? that ought not to be too constraining :P
[07:17] <DJayC> njan: Really?  let me take a look..
[07:17] <njan> DJayC, if you right-click on the slider *just* to the left of the first window and hit properties it's in therre somewhere, I forget the name of it..
[07:17] <michoelc> perry_: not when you share it with about 15 other people :-(
[07:17] <mcphail> michoelc: i'm sure it is another one of mark shuttleworth's projects. You could google for it
[07:17] <michoelc> mcphail: let me try..
[07:17] <Davy> are there dvd versions of ubuntu available?
[07:17] <perry_> michoelc: tell them to stop dl'ing porn/music/warez
[07:17] <phaedrus44> any reports of gaim causing probs?
[07:18] <sethk> phaedrus44, in irc mode, yes
[07:18] <santium> Can someone tell me how to set up my USB wireless card? I can't find the GUI application, and the command line tools say the command is unsupported/
[07:18] <DJayC> njan: Yeah, I see the "Show windows from all workspaces option.. but it's set to only show current.. which behaves correctly so long as the app isn't minimized.. once it's minimized it shows up on all of them
[07:18] <grte> Anyone able to help me out a bit with a keyboard problem?
[07:18] <michoelc> perry_: lol!
[07:18] <nemtaro> sethk, in a shell script, if I need to cd to some directory, should I use $(cd ..) or just cd ..
[07:18] <njan> DJayC, weird, haven't experienced that one, sounds like a nice bug :)
[07:18] <phaedrus44> sethk: i only use it for yahoo and aolim
[07:18] <sethk> nemtaro, cd is fine.  I meant to not use the back ticks, use $(...) instead
[07:18] <ardchoille> grte: No one will know if they can help or not until they know the problem itself
[07:19] <nemtaro> k thanks
[07:19] <grte> Well, a few keys in a couple programs no longer work the way they used to.
[07:19] <DJayC> njan: It's annoying ;-)   I don't know if it's a compiz thing or not
[07:19] <Davy> nm, i see here that there is :)
[07:19] <sethk> phaedrus44, I haven't seen problems reported with those.  Doesn't necessarily mean there aren't any, but I haven't seen them.
[07:20] <grte> For instance, the home and end keys no longer function in epiphany, and in ncmpc, the right - key no longer functions, while the right + key moves the cursor up rather than increase volume.
[07:20] <perry_> somebody, please help me with xsane and an HP all in one printer :S
[07:20] <santium> Can someone tell me how to set up my USB wireless adapter? I can't find the GUI application, and the command line tools say the command is unsupported.
[07:20] <grte> I haven't touched they keybindings for either.
[07:20] <sethk> perry_, probably nobody here is using it.  There is a separate specific driver in cups for the hp all in one thing, in case that helps.
[07:21] <mcphail> michoelc: http://www.freedomtoaster.co.za/
[07:22] <michoelc> hmm, this looks intersting: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2006/07/get-free-linux-dvds-and-i-am-not.html, kind of what happened when google started offering 2gig accounts, suddenly every one else thought it was a good idea..
[07:22] <phaedrus44> this is getting really old
[07:22] <phaedrus44> mabye i got a virus or somthing
[07:22] <cntb> perry_: was away a bit
[07:22] <michoelc> mcphail: thanks, lemme check it out
[07:22] <ompaul> run xubuntu
[07:23] <sethk> phaedrus44, try running the memory test.  It's the most common reason for systems to hang.
[07:23] <nemtaro> ok, set -v doesn't print the output of my command to screen, it prints the actual lines from the shell script, is that right?
[07:23] <sethk> nemtaro, right.  the output will be printed there without doing anything special
[07:23] <sethk> nemtaro, as long as you don't redirect it, and don't use nohup
[07:23] <phaedrus44> thats in the boot menu right ?
[07:23] <mcphail> phaedrus44: faulty PSUs can cause system hangs as well
[07:24] <nemtaro> that's true for some of the command in my script, but say for $(tar -xvf ...) it doesn't view the output
[07:24] <phaedrus44> PSUs ?   whats that?
[07:24] <mcphail> phaedrus44: power supllies
[07:25] <sethk> nemtaro, the output of the tar, no, but that's because the tar output is being used as an argument to the outer command
[07:25] <phaedrus44> this is strange becuase i have been running debian on this box for 3 days
[07:25] <michoelc> mcphail: i dont see where the list is, but i guess if it's mark shuttleworth then it's got ubuntu on it?
[07:25] <phaedrus44> i swithced back to ubuntu server and now i have these crashes
[07:25] <mcphail> michoelc: i'd imagine so
[07:25] <sethk> phaedrus44, go back to debian for a while.   if it still doesn't crash, then you'll know
[07:25] <nemtaro> in fact, $(tar -xvf ...) does its job, and then gives me an error saying :./script.sh: line 11: ../: is a directory - can I get rid of that error at least?
[07:26] <mcphail> michoelc: is there a "toaster" near you?
[07:26] <sethk> nemtaro, you have to get rid of the pieces of the tar output that are directory names
[07:26] <phaedrus44> sethk:  i went back to my windows xp and it didnt hang or freeze
[07:26] <phaedrus44> does that matter?
[07:26] <sethk> nemtaro, you can do something like this:  $(tar xvf whatever | egrep -v '/$'
[07:26] <sethk> phaedrus44, yes, it matters
[07:27] <sethk> phaedrus44, but running debian is a better test.
[07:27] <mcphail> phaedrus44: if other OSs are fine, it is probably not your hardware
[07:27] <michoelc> mcphail: there is one which i think is about 20 minutes drive away.. thanks alot!
[07:27] <nemtaro> interesting, thank you.. I'm trying that
[07:27] <sethk> nemtaro, I left out the closing )
[07:27] <mcphail> michoelc: excellent
[07:27] <nemtaro> :)
[07:28] <cntb> SA is the place for UBUNTU
[07:28] <nemtaro> what does (egrep -v '/$') do?
[07:28] <phaedrus44> im gonna jump out my window
[07:28] <santa99> evening guys
[07:28] <nemtaro> it's giving me a Permission denied error on some txt file now
[07:28] <santa99> how can i extract an .img file
[07:29] <sethk> santa99, probably it is an iso file, you can do a loopback mount of it.
[07:29] <mcphail> santa99: .img is not a specific filetype. It can mean many things
[07:29] <santa99> sethk, will try it
[07:29] <santa99> mcphail, for instance ?
[07:29] <cjones> what package contains the ms money like program?
[07:29] <ardchoille> sethk: what does (egrep -v '/$') do?
[07:30] <mcphail> santa99: for example, it is often used as a suffix when someone backs up a partition with "dd", or creates a virtual disk image in qemu
[07:31] <santa99> mcphail, I'm sure it is a film
[07:31] <sethk> ardchoille, egrep is regular expression grep.  -v inverts the selection.  '/$' means a line ending with /
[07:31] <nemtaro> -v is to invert the selection,
[07:31] <sethk> ardchoille, the point being that in the listing, directory names end with /
[07:31] <mcphail> santa99: then it is likely to be an iso file or similar
[07:31] <ardchoille> sethk: ah, yeah
[07:31] <mcphail> santa99: what is the output of "file name.img"?
[07:32] <lhds> is there linux programs that acts like scandisk and defrag?
[07:32] <santa99> mcphail, exi.img: data
[07:32] <santa99> mcphail, exi.sub: MPEG ADTS, layer I, v1, Monaural
[07:33] <mcphail> santa99: try mounting it, or see if k3b can burn it as an image
[07:33] <santa99> mcphail, exi.ccd: ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators
[07:33] <cntb> lhds
[07:33] <Sanctusorium>  Hey, if any could spare some time to help me, I need alot of help right now =b
[07:33] <Sanctusorium> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20789
[07:33] <cntb> good question
[07:34] <mcphail> santa99: not sure about the others - ? is it a proprietary bin/cue type format?
[07:34] <santa99> mcphail, I'm not sure
[07:34] <santa99> mcphail, sudo mount -o loop exi.iso /mnt/ISO
[07:34] <santa99> ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy
[07:35] <mcphail> santa99: looks as if it is a CloneCD file
[07:35] <santa99> mcphail, whats with this error ?
[07:35] <Stabwound> is there an easy way/program to throttle bandwidth to certain programs?
[07:35] <mcphail> santa99: not sure if you can mount these in linux
[07:35] <phaedrus44> not frozen yet and i just installed openoffice
[07:35] <phaedrus44> hhhmm
[07:36] <viller> why does GTK use the default theme when I use something else than GNOME or XFCE?
[07:36] <sethk> phaedrus44, oh, so if a machine hangs, we should advise people to install open office.  :)
[07:36] <sethk> viller, because the attempt to retrieve the current theme fails.
[07:36] <mcphail> sethk: opening openoffice just makes it _seem_ as if your box has frozen...
[07:36] <phaedrus44> sethk:  hehe
[07:36] <phaedrus44> yup
[07:37] <viller> sethk why does it fail?
[07:37] <sethk> viller, because the desktop software that would respond to the request isn't running.
[07:38] <viller> :(
[07:38] <lukus001> whats the best way to install 32bit apps on 64bit drapper?
[07:38] <viller> but apps using newer Qt look great on GNOME
[07:38] <viller> ?
[07:38] <lhds> is there linux programs that acts like scandisk and defrag?
[07:38] <erUSUL> lukus001: the "only way" right now is with a chroot
[07:39] <mcphail> lukus001: make a 32-bit chroot, install synaptic whithin it and enjoy!
[07:39] <[b] urk> you can theme qt and make them look like any other app
[07:39] <[b] urk> viller, search google for: qt theme; or something like that
[07:39] <lukus001> Whats the correct way to chroot? a site i tried following donest work and i also read on the forum about force achetecture?
[07:40] <cntb> has channel passed 900 ppl?
[07:40] <mcphail> lhds: /sbin/fsck is similar to scandisk. There is no need to defrag.
[07:40] <cntb> if yes then time to split
[07:41] <mcphail> lhds: modern filesystems make regualar file system checks unnecessary
[07:41] <phaedrus44> sweet...still going no craash..
[07:41] <mirak> is eclipse still broken in dapper ?
[07:42] <phaedrus44> i need to install more fonts ..what is the process for that/
[07:42] <phaedrus44> ?
[07:42] <axisys> is there any CLI tool to fetch mail from https://webmail.mywork.com? my work exchange email can only be accessed thru https://webmail when I am off work network
[07:42] <axisys> a tool that I can install in ubuntu
[07:43] <TheGame> hey
[07:43] <lukus001> erUSUL, mcphail : how do i chroot? the method detail here http://cedegawiki.sweetleafstudios.com/wiki/Ubuntu#Building_a_clean_32bit_chroot_with_debbootstrap_on_AMD64 which is the same method i found on the forum doesnt work?
[07:43] <mcphail> axisys: do you have pop3 or imap access?
[07:43] <TheGame> can someone tell me how to disable the touchpad
[07:43] <nox-Hand> Hey
[07:43] <TheGame> i tried to follow the instructions on the wiki but they didnt work
[07:43] <mcphail> lukus001: it will be buried in the offical ubuntu wiki
[07:43] <axisys> mcphail: no pop only imap.. but imap only when i am at work network.. not from outside
[07:44] <mcphail> axisys: you just want to _read_ the mail?
[07:44] <axisys> mcphail: yes
[07:44] <mcphail> axisys: have you tried accessing the site in elinks?
[07:45] <axisys> mcphail: no i did not.. is it like lynx?
[07:45] <mcphail> axisys: yes, but supports frames/colour (and https iirc)
[07:45] <santa99> mcphail, do you have a idea what i have to install to be able to extract .iso files in nautilus
[07:45] <axisys> mcphail: actually i wanted to read using mutt and then make sure my exchange server knows that the mail is read already
[07:46] <axisys> santa99: just mount it
[07:46] <ardchoille> !mount
[07:46] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[07:46] <santa99> axisys, ok
[07:46] <mcphail> axisys: i don't think you'll be able to do that without pop3 or imap access
[07:46] <santa99> !iso
[07:46] <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
[07:46] <santa99> !img
[07:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:47] <mcphail> santa99: as i said earlier, i don't think your file is an ISO image. I think it is a proprietary format which only has a player in Windows :(
[07:47] <TSWoodV> Anyone here got experience with software RAID1 and LVM2?
[07:47] <axisys> mcphail: how does evolution do then..
[07:47] <TSWoodV> I'm getting filesystem corruption big time with this combo.
[07:48] <axisys> mcphail: essentialy i like to stick with mutt as my MUA
[07:48] <mcphail> axisys: aah - you have access to the exchange server?
[07:48] <TheGame> is there a hotkey to press to show desktop?
[07:48] <TheGame> or is that only with compiz-quinn
[07:48] <santa99> mcphail, i have already forgot about this .img file i only want to extract another .iso file which i was able to mount with mount -o loop
[07:48] <axisys> mcphail: thru https from anywhere
[07:48] <fsancho> hi all
[07:48] <fsancho> i have a problem with blender and ati igp open source drivers
[07:48] <fsancho> i'm using dapper
[07:49] <nox-Hand> Could someone help me boot a Ubuntu partition I havnt been able to boot after I installed Arch - even if I chose my old grub.conf which is still on the Ubuntu partition
[07:49] <mcphail> axisys: i think other clients can connect to exchange servers now, but i'm afraid i don't know which plugins you will need :(
[07:49] <axisys> santa99: u can use qemu to start a virtual desktop of the .img file
[07:49] <jariep1__> how do I change my nick in IRC
[07:49] <ardchoille> jariep1__: /nick
[07:49] <tam> /nick nickname
[07:49] <santium> Can someone tell me how to set up my USB wireless adapter? I can't find the GUI application, and the command line tools say the command is unsupported.
[07:50] <fsancho> blender loads but it goes mad drawing random lines.
[07:50] <TheGame> can some1 tell me if theres a hotkey to show the desktop
[07:50] <TheGame> like windows is winkey + d
[07:50] <axisys> anyone here know of any such plugin may be for mutt to read email from exchange server .. it needs to be able to access the exchange server thru https
[07:50] <TheGame> any1?
[07:50] <mcphail> TheGame: you can configure this in gconf-editor
[07:51] <axisys> i am looking for cli version.. not thru browser or evolution
[07:51] <sally2> what is the command to hotplug a pcmcia card?
[07:51] <poison> I use evolution
[07:51] <axisys> poison: :-)
[07:52] <poison> works most of the time sometimes its slow on accessing exchange but once loaded it seems to work ok
[07:52] <axisys> poison: i am looking for cli version :-)
[07:52] <TheGame> mcphail: where do i go in gconf
[07:52] <poison> I have no idea then. If you find one let me know also 8-)
[07:52] <lukus001> how do i delete a folder by command line?
[07:53] <poison> rmdir
[07:53] <jconcepcion> does anyone know how to get evolution exchange to automatically decrypt?
[07:53] <mcphail> TheGame: i'm afraid i can't check just now, because i am not using the GUI. It is buried in there somewhere :)
[07:53] <poison> lukus001 you could apt-get install mc which works well also
[07:54] <lukus001> whats that?
[07:54] <mcphail> lukus001: rm -rf
[07:54] <TheGame> ya ive been looking for it but im beginning to think its only possible with compiz-quinn
[07:54] <poison> does rm -rf also remove directories with files in them?
[07:54] <jconcepcion> poison: yes
[07:54] <poison> mc is midnight commander kinda similar to the old dos xtree
[07:55] <Crooper> rm -rf <dir_to_be_deleted>
[07:55] <poison> sweet learn something new everyday 8-)
[07:55] <mcphail> TheGame: if you can't see it there, i'm sure there is a "keybindings" section under the gnome systems menu
[07:55] <TheGame> there is but not for show desktop
[07:56] <poison> how do you activate a keybinding? I set mine up for 3ddesktop but it does not seem to work.
[07:56] <mcphail> TheGame: i'm afraid i can't search until i get home and start gnome :(
[07:57] <mcphail> TheGame: you can also add a "show Desktop" applet to a panel
[07:57] <TheGame> i dont like the applet

[08:03] <mason> Hi fellow ubuntu'ians. I'm having some trouble configuring grub correctly to boot into WinXP on my second SATA HD. I've fdisk'ed to get the correct device, modifed the menu.lst, but when I try to boot XP from grub it fails. Can anyone help me out.
[08:04] <codehtmai> is it possible for me to export the display of a _already running_ program to a different computer?

[08:04] <Goblyn> how do i open a directory that has spaces in the name?
[08:04] <Answer> when I run "hwclock", it says "select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out"
[08:04] <Acid___> mason: http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=427277
[08:04] <kitsuneofdoom> Goblyn: you have to put a \ before the spaces
[08:05] <Acid___> mason: it's in french but you'll see the same thing in english i think
[08:05] <chris_> hi can i ask something
[08:05] <mason> Acid___,  grub doesn't even start to boot into windows, it fails before XP has a chance.
[08:05] <kitsuneofdoom> Goblyn: that also works for quotes
[08:05] <mrPolite> can someone please help me reset my defaul keyring. or delete it, or make it not exits any more, or make it work with the password i used?
[08:05] <kitsuneofdoom> chris_: don't ask to ask
[08:05] <Acid___> mason: Yes, i had this problem
[08:05] <lukus001> chris_, you just did
[08:05] <mason> Acid___, I'll take a look at that. thanks.
[08:05] <chris_> ok i installed newspost
[08:05] <Acid___> mason: no problem
[08:05] <chris_> but when i do a upload
[08:05] <Acid___> mason: the trick is map(hd0)(hd1)
[08:05] <Acid___> map(hd1)(hd0)
[08:06] <chris_> i get unexpected server response and he stops uploading
[08:06] <chris_> how can this be
[08:06] <chris_> ???
[08:06] <Acid___> mason: this will let windows think it is on the first hard disk
[08:06] <claus> !search
[08:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about search - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:07] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on
[08:07] <mason> Acid___, map (hd0)(hd1) / map (hd1)(hd0) / root (hd1,1) /  chainloader +1
[08:07] <mason> correct?
[08:07] <Acid___> mason: yep
[08:07] <Acid___> mason: root (hd1,0)

[08:09] <skroll> Is there any software on the Ubuntu repos that will burn Lame encoded mp3s as gapless audio tracks?
[08:09] <Acid___> mason: so rootnoverify (hd1,1)
[08:09] <quiet> gapless?
[08:09] <Acid___> mason: don't forget the noverify :)
[08:09] <skroll> queit: Lame stores information in the header that allows for it not to have that little 'click' between tracks
[08:09] <erUSUL> ssdd534: short answer: No long answer google around about kexec patches for the kernel
[08:10] <skroll> quiet: i can do it under windows xp using Burrrn
[08:10] <mason> Ah, what's the difference between root and rootnoverify, aside from not verifying it?
[08:10] <ssdd534> erUSUL, thanks
[08:10] <sk4jvoker> i get this message when i try the live cd  [4294800.915000]  buffer i\o error on device HDB,Logic black o

[08:10] <dverzolla> I need to delete some messages from my imap server, but I need to delete based in a Subject parameter, anyone knows with software I can use?
[08:10] <SanketMedhi> is there a different channel for amd64?
[08:10] <Goblyn> for some reason, any time i try to change the audio settings in winecfg, it crashes, any idea's?
[08:10] <quiet> hrm.. i don't have any clicks.... i use abcde to rip cds to flac (occaisionaly mp3, if i don't care about quality) and i have no 'clicks'
[08:11] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: If there is, I've seen and asked plenty of 64 questions here
[08:11] <SanketMedhi> kitsuneofdoom: I am here to answer not ask :P
[08:11] <skroll> quiet: they are very minor, and it's only present in mp3's (its a side effect of the encoding)
[08:11] <skroll> quiet: but if you have a cd with 99 tracks that is only 25 minutes long, they'll drive you nuts
[08:11] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: ah, well, I've got some issues, but I think they're all pretty much standard
[08:11] <mason> thanks, should have googled that one :) One other thing, I'm running a dual core AMD on the ubuntu 386 build, but the system monitor is only showing one CPU, is that normal?
[08:12] <SanketMedhi> kitsuneofdoom: like?
[08:12] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: getting flash to work right (tried gnash, didn't work, the package plugin is terrible)

[08:13] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: ATi graphics card, but I've found out the card just sucks (X 200M)
[08:13] <SanketMedhi> !ati
[08:13] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:13] <SanketMedhi> yeah ATI sucks, Nvidia rocks! :)
[08:13] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: done that, my computer is one that has an error with the graphics card and all goes to hell
[08:13] <SanketMedhi> ok dunno about ati

[08:14] <AinoTenshi> Hello! where can I download the wine to my Ubuntu 64 bits from a windows machine
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> sk4jvoker: maybe your CD is corrupt
[08:14] <ese5> and modified sudoers
[08:14] <ese5> but nothing happens when i start X
[08:14] <kitsuneofdoom> SanketMedhi: well, I would have chosen Nvidia if I could, but I wanted a turion more than I wanted a Nvidia
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> ok
[08:14] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on
[08:14] <SanketMedhi> AinoTenshi: download wine for 32 bit from winehq.com
[08:15] <mason> sk4jvoker, when you boot the live cd you can test the integrity of the CD
[08:15] <SanketMedhi> AinoTenshi: then use "sudo dpkg --force-all -I *.deb" for the packages you download
[08:15] <ese5> does anyone use firetarter in gnome?
[08:15] <claus> How can i search for a file located in a dir that i dont know by using the terminal?
[08:15] <sk4jvoker> i ran the same cd yesterday on another computer and it was fine
[08:16] <AinoTenshi> SanketMedhi> thank you!
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> np
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> claus: you don't know the file or the dir?
[08:16] <claus> fyrestrtr: i do know the file
[08:16] <SanketMedhi> claus: use "updatedb" first, then use "locate filename"
[08:16] <OmegaNine> Can someone recomend a good public repository?
[08:16] <claus> okay
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> claus: sudo find / -t f "nameoffile"
[08:16] <dverzolla> I need to delete some messages from my imap server, but I need to delete based in a Subject parameter, anyone knows what software I can use?
[08:17] <fyrestrtr> dverzolla: thunderbird?
[08:17] <elias_> Is there user_xattr support in XFS?
[08:17] <dverzolla> fyrestrtr, I won't retrieve the message, just delete
[08:17] <elias_> Same for ACL
[08:17] <dverzolla> fyrestrtr, its possible?
[08:18] <Acid___> elias_: yes
[08:18] <fyrestrtr> dverzolla: hrmm, yes its possible. I don't know of a tool that does it 'universally', maybe your server has a tool, you can always write something in ______ (insert favorite language that has imap bindings)
[08:18] <elias_> Any reason not to use xfs for my dapper with beagle installed? Have read there is not user_xattr support in XFS and therefore I would have bad performance.
[08:18] <claus> thanks fyrestrtr and SanketMedhi, found the file ^^
[08:18] <lukus001> Anyone know of an application that will turn AVI files in DV files to sue with kino?
[08:18] <elias_> Acid___: xattr and acl, no problem at all?
[08:19] <Acid___> elias_: to my mind, it's a very goos FS but very slow on deleting :/
[08:19] <Acid___> elias_: no, no problem at all :)
[08:19] <elias_> Acid___: What are you using?
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> lukus001: try dvdrip, and I think mplayer can do it.
[08:19] <elias_> Hate the periodical fs checks with ext3
[08:19] <Acid___> elias_: XFS
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> elias_: man tune2fs :)
[08:20] <lukus001> fyrestrtr okay thanks :)

ALSA is seeing both cards, but I can't figure out how to kill the builtin one so sound goes to the SB Live
[08:22] <SanketMedhi> nox-Hand: boot using Ubuntu Live and type the command "grub-install /dev/hda" . Replace hda by hdb/hdc... or sda/sdb/sdc... depending on your hardware

[08:29] <skizzo> AinoTenshi:  your best bet is to find an internet connection - you need a bunch of codecs in order to play mp3's and videos
[08:29] <sharperguy> ahh

[08:30] <Seveas> sharperguy, if I had a nickle for every automatix-caused reinstall, i'd be richer than mark shuttleworth
[08:30] <lukus001> Can anyone help? i just followed ubuntu crappy chroot guide which involved linking all my user directories to chroots and since the guide never said anything about unstalling all the crap deleteing /var/chroot has just deleted my home directories and everything else
[08:31] <quiet> if you know how to use synaptic... automatix is not necessary
[08:31] <TSWoodV> What's the general thinking about easy-ubuntu?  Same as automatix or not?

[08:32] <fyrestrtr> lhds: two reasons -- one you didn't set it up, two you did, and its querying the website for weather data.
[08:32] <lhds> automatix is far better than easy ubuntu
[08:32] <AinoTenshi> the place where this machine stay, don 't have net
[08:32] <Seveas> lhds, you mean worse
[08:32] <Seveas> automatix is crap in its purest form, and very offtopic in here
[08:32] <UKN411> hey guys
[08:32] <fyrestrtr> its also offtopic in ubuntu-offtopic, that's how bad it is

[08:34] <UKN411> did anyone testet both (k)ubuntu dapper and suse 10.1?
[08:34] <cjones> seveas hey would you rather run win xp?
[08:34] <UKN411> tested*
[08:34] <AinoTenshi> and don't play the file
[08:34] <Lattyware> Could anyone help me as to trying to set up 5.1 under Ubuntu?
[08:34] <Dabian> Is USB surround headsets with microphone UBUNTU?
[08:34] <linuxgoober> where can i get a sources.list for edgy eft?
[08:34] <Lattyware> I love that script.
[08:34] <DShepherd> UKN411: i am sure someone on the world did. is that really your question?
[08:34] <discouraged> i have tested suse and dapper on my laptop
[08:34] <DShepherd> linuxgoober: ask in #ubuntu+1
[08:35] <zoubida> ok i found it is really wrongly supported only grayscale 300 dpi
[08:35] <linuxgoober> ok
[08:35] <zoubida> bye all
[08:35] <Dabian> DShepherd, you mean #ubuntu,0 ?
[08:35] <UKN411> discouraged.... and?
[08:35] <Dabian> DShepherd, #Ubuntu2,0 even.
[08:35] <AinoTenshi> where I found the codecs?
[08:35] <DShepherd> Dabian: I meant #ubuntu+1
[08:35] <lhds> seveas it gives me the weather forecast  but there is the radar map onglet that shows an interrogation mark ... does it needs a special plugin?
[08:35] <Dabian> DShepherd, I C .. strange network, freenode.
[08:35] <UKN411> i tested them (ubuntu 6.06) and suse 10.1 on my acer tm2350laptop
[08:35] <DShepherd> AinoTenshi: codecs to do what?
[08:36] <typhoid> hello!  could someone please remind me where to look for    httpd?  i forget   =(
[08:36] <lhds> ainotenshi .... automatix
[08:36] <DShepherd> UKN411: good for you..
[08:36] <fyrestrtr> lhds: the map might not be available for your location
[08:36] <cjones> what  did i do wrong why did i get kicked?
[08:36] <cntb> Dabian:  what strange on freenode ?
[08:36] <Dabian> Seveas, how do I know if I should buy this USB headset with peace in mind.
[08:36] <AinoTenshi> to see videos and mp3s in ubuntu. But I will downloaf from a windows machine
[08:36] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: /etc/apache2 ?
[08:36] <Seveas> Dabian, ask whether you can return it if it dosn't work on linux 
[08:36] <Dabian> cntb, a lot of stuff ... did you see how Seveas got rid of Jones?
[08:36] <Lattyware> Any easy way to set up 5.1 with Ubuntu?
[08:37] <typhoid> fyrestrtr nope, but thank you fro trying!
[08:37] <cntb> no missed that
[08:37] <Dabian> Seveas, I doubt it .. its a shop for companies .. not for privates.
[08:37] <AinoTenshi> because I don't have internet on the ubuntu machine
[08:37] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: what are you considering purchasing?
[08:37] <skizzo> AinoTenshi:  Okay, you'll want to search around for some gstramer plugins: gstreamer0.10-plugins-base, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, typically. Or, try finding gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 and gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegdemux. You can get all of these in the synaptic package manager, but you don't have an internet connection on your Ubuntu machine.
[08:37] <Seveas> Dabian, then find someone who already has the same
[08:37] <jrib> Lattyware: set up 5.1 what?
[08:37] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, USB headset w/surround
[08:37] <cjones> seveas would you please tell me what i did wrong to get kicked so i dont do it again
[08:37] <UKN411> suse 10.1 is very very nice (w/KDE) and has almost everithing u need ... and working... but is very slow...
[08:37] <caero> I am running ubuntu 6.06 on my thinkpad x40. When I install kismet and ethereal through synaptic and then
[08:37] <quiet> can anyone paste an example line for mounting a cifs share with a given username/password/etc on boot?  I assume it would be an fstab entry?
[08:37] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: I didn't understand what you asked to be honest. What do you mean you can't find it?
[08:37] <caero>                later on reboot I am unable to log in with my user again. Does anyone know why?
[08:37] <Lattyware> jrib: Audio. 5.1 surround sound.
[08:37] <DShepherd> !tell AinoTenshi about restrictedformats
[08:38] <jrib> Lattyware: oh
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> UKN411: suse comes with gnome.....
[08:38] <Seveas> cjones, the automatix talk
[08:38] <SeNtiX> hi
[08:38] <typhoid> i don't know what directory it is in, fyrestrtr...   it's not in /bin or anything so when i type  httpd at command prompt it tells me that it can't find such a command
[08:38] <ompaul> cjones  that software is not for suggesting here - it causes breaks of peoples computers and that is not on - we are not here to clean up beacuse of badly constructed software - we want stable systems
[08:38] <dwhsi1> if I use cygwin and do a "ssh -X username@ubuntuhost", there's no DISPLAY environment set and so X doesn't work... thoughts as to why this would be happening?  thx
[08:38] <UKN411> fyrestrt u can choose btw gnome or kde... gnome sucks on suse 10.1 ...
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start :)
[08:38] <cjones> seveas why cant we talk about it hear?
[08:38] <Dabian> Seveas, Good advise .. however, I don't know how to.  Only a select few uses GNU/Linux in this country ... of course .. I /could/ google it .. but I hoped there was someone here with knowledge about USB-sound.
[08:38] <SeNtiX> ok so i downloaded the ubuntu server edition
[08:38] <ompaul> cjones for the reason I just stated
[08:38] <Dabian> SeNtiX, OK.
[08:38] <Seveas> cjones, because of what ompaul just said
[08:39] <SeNtiX> and i want to install xfce just for when iu need a gui
[08:39] <cntb> 898 approaching 900 anybody split topics on ubuntu !! nowww
[08:39] <quiet> SeNtiX, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:39] <typhoid> fyrestrtr, thanks a ton! that's what i was looking for =D
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: I have a usb headset (logitech) that works.
 Have a site to I download theese? Have a pack with all (like K-lite codec pack, from windows)?
[08:39] <caero> I am running ubuntu 6.06 on my thinkpad x40. When I install kismet and ethereal through synaptic and then later on reboot I am unable to log in with my user again. Does anyone know why?
[08:39] <Seveas> Dabian, maybe google can help
[08:39] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, Cool .. does it work with Ubuntu? (gnu/linux) ?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: but its not 5.1 -- how can you get 5.1 on a *headset*
[08:39] <SeNtiX> but i dont want it always on, i want to turn it off / on
[08:39] <skizzo> AinoTenshi:  google.com - I don't know where you'd find them, but I just gave you all the filenames you need.
[08:39] <SeNtiX> how do i do that?
[08:39] <cjones> i understand but anything it brakes can be fixed with 2 clicks?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: yes, but just to check, let me plug it in right now :)
[08:39] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, 6 loudspeakers
 Thank you so much!
[08:40] <TomaszD> AinoTenshi, just follow http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats, but download the .deb packages from http://packages.ubuntu.com
[08:40] <SeNtiX> quiet, any ideas?
[08:40] <ompaul> cjones, message me if you want to know
[08:40] <POVaddct> caero: can you log in on the console? (ctrl-alt-f1)
[08:40] <quiet> SeNtiX, how do you do what??
[08:40] <ompaul> cjones, do _not_ mention it in the channel thanks
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: you have a usb speaker system with 6.1 speakers? I must see this.
[08:40] <Dabian> EAX 2.0
[08:40] <SeNtiX> but i dont want it always on, i want to turn it off / on
[08:40] <Seveas> cjones, the installer takes more than 2 clicks and consider this the last warning. That piece of crap is offtopic in here
[08:40] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, 5.1
[08:40] <quiet> disable gdm?
[08:40] <SeNtiX> the xfce
[08:40] <quiet> or just apt-get install xfce
[08:40] <caero> POVaddct: It basically goes blank screen for 1 sec, then I see a command line login for 1 sec and then it goes back to the login screen as if nothing had happened
[08:40] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, I believe you need subwoofer for 6.1 ?
[08:40] <quiet> then it won't start gdm on boot
[08:40] <skizzo> AinoTenshi:  http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/libs/gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
[08:40] <caero> POVaddct: hold on let me try
[08:40] <Dabian> or somethign
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: anyway, point here is, my usb logitech headset that is stereo, works fine.
[08:40] <quiet> SeNtiX, and you can use 'startx' to start x
[08:41] <skizzo> you can also search for the other files you need from that site.
[08:41] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, Thats a good point, which I like.
[08:41] <SeNtiX> so startx to start
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: you don't need a subwoofer. The numbers are just the channels of audio. Stereo is 2.0 :)
[08:41] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, It seems that I wasn't smart enough to note the brand of the headset..
[08:41] <SeNtiX> and then normal kill?
[08:41] <skizzo> AinoTenshi:  from http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/libs/
[08:41] <SeNtiX> to stop it?
[08:41] <AinoTenshi> Thank's for help! and sorry of my poor english (I'm brazilian)
[08:41] <quiet> SeNtiX, exit xfce
[08:41] <Artimus> Does the Ubuntu default kernel have the drm & radeon drivers?  The only distro that I've gotten to work with the card (onboard) was Knoppix, and it had those modules loaded.
[08:41] <ompaul> !br
[08:41] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[08:41] <simira> caero: try running a failsafe session? It probably has nothing to do with kismet or ethereal
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> SeNtiX: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[08:41] <ompaul> AinoTenshi, see what ubotu said
[08:41] <SeNtiX> ok tnx quiet :)
[08:41] <Seveas> Artimus, yes it has those
[08:41] <quiet> SeNtiX, when you exit xfce, it will stop X
[08:42] <quiet> if you started it with startx
[08:42] <Artimus> Seveas: Thanks
[08:42] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, ok .. this headset is supposed to have 6 loudspeakers, and is 5.1 .. it also has a microphone.
[08:42] <AinoTenshi> Obrigado!
[08:42] <quiet> SeNtiX, you also need to have ~/.xinitrc    with 'exec startxfce4'
[08:42] <quiet> so startx knows what desktop to start on
[08:42] <sm> hi.. how do I tell dapper to mount removable vfat drives (like an ipod) case insensitive ?
[08:42] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, does it use your ordinary soundcard .. or is there a soundcard build in?
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: think about that for a second, how can a *headset* (assuming it goes around a human head) have 6 speakers? Considering most humans have two ears.
[08:42] <pri> oi
[08:42] <SeNtiX> k will try that
[08:42] <ajopaul> hi does anybody know how to sync nokia 6630 connected thru usb on Dapper????
[08:43] <mrPolite> can someone plase help me reset my keyring
[08:43] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, my guess is 3 loud speakers in each ear.
[08:43] <Seveas> sm, black magic I'm afraid -- you'll need to edit the udev rules
[08:43] <flasher> mplayer closes down after 1 millisecond of playback. please see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20795. please advise
[08:43] <mrPolite> !keyring
[08:43] <ompaul> frankenstine - could you that join and part not in #ubuntu - it is way more than we need thanks
[08:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keyring - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: my headset plugs into the usb port, and then it just routes the audio.
[08:43] <ompaul> ther is that
[08:43] <Seveas> ompaul, I was already on it ;)
[08:43] <SeNtiX> quiet, then with 'exit xfce' it will stop xserver as well?
[08:43] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, please elaborate ... I'm afraid I'm somewhat thick :/
[08:43] <CoolCubix> Is #ubuntu an acceptable place to ask wifi-related question ? (using ubuntu of course ^^)
[08:44] <Seveas> CoolCubix, it is
[08:44] <CoolCubix> great
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: I'm saying, it just sounds like marketing speak. Its probably just using stereo imaging, not having 3 speakers in each cup.
[08:44] <CoolCubix> I have an undefinable problem with madwifi. Using a Netgear pcmcia card (atheros chipset). My AP uses a WPA-PSK authentification. Everything shows the card is connected, but in fact it doesn't exchange data with AP... An idea ? I've read madwifi's FAQ an docs several times and i can't get an answer :/
[08:44] <sm> Seveas: thx, do you know where ?
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> Dabian: come to ubuntu-offtopic
[08:44] <quiet> SeNtiX, i didn't mean the command 'exit xfce'  i mean choose exit from the xfce menu... and yes, it will stop the xserver
[08:44] <Dabian> fyrestrtr, ok
[08:44] <discouraged> where can i find out when/if knot 2 image will be released
[08:44] <quiet> SeNtiX, very new to linux, huh?  :)
[08:45] <fyrestrtr> discouraged: #ubuntu+1
[08:45] <Seveas> CoolCubix, how did you setup wpa?
[08:45] <SeNtiX> not really new, always worked with bash
[08:45] <Dabian> !ubuntu+1
[08:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu+1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:45] <Seveas> sm, /etc/udev/rules.d
[08:45] <Seveas> (iirc)
[08:45] <quiet> SeNtiX, okay.
[08:45] <typhoid> fyrestrtr..   that command is good to restart apache, but i need to start up my httpd first..  do you know where the path to it is, offhand?  apache can't run  w/out httpd running hehe
[08:45] <CoolCubix> Seveas, using iwconfig ath0 key s:mykey
[08:45] <madmax> does anyone know how the modules are loaded at boot time? i tried to look in /etc/modules and /etc/init.d and i can't find a module i want to remove
[08:45] <Seveas> CoolCubix, that's not WPA
[08:45] <SeNtiX> what i learned is from trial and error, i admister a game server
[08:45] <CoolCubix> damned ><
[08:46] <SeNtiX> anyways tnx for the help
[08:46] <POVaddct> CoolCubix: iwconfig ... key is only for WEP encryption
[08:46] <Seveas> CoolCubix, you should install network-manager-gnome (or -kde) for relatively painless WPA
[08:46] <CoolCubix> oops
[08:46] <madmax> i have two soundcards.. how do i remove one ?
[08:46] <CoolCubix> hmmm ctrl-w isn't friendly with xchat
[08:46] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on
[08:46] <CoolCubix> okay
[08:46] <Seveas> CoolCubix, please don't touch that button again ;)
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: apache IS httpd
[08:47] <CoolCubix> i'm gonna try wpa_supplicant, is it ok ?
[08:47] <typhoid> hmm..
[08:47] <CoolCubix> (sorry i have a reflex with bash to use ^W)
[08:47] <Seveas> wpa_supplicant is okay, network-manager is easier (and uses wpa_supplicant as backend)
[08:47] <neutrinomass> madmax: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist if you don't want a module to be loaded ...
[08:47] <dpupp> im having issues getting my dwl-510 up and running. im not too familiar with some of the instructions on the forums. i have installed ndiswrapper but im not sure what to do from there.
[08:47] <madmax> neutrinomass: thank you
[08:48] <typhoid> fyrestrtr hmm...  i'm not sure what to make of this then:  * Forcing reload of apache 2.0 web server... apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[08:48] <typhoid> httpd (pid 22890?) not running
[08:48] <CoolCubix> Seveas, you mean GUI in gnome system/administration ?
[08:48] <Seveas> CoolCubix, no -- network-manager is a separate package
[08:48] <Seveas> the thing you mentioned is gnome-network-admin and doesn't do wpa
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: nothing, its normal if you don't have a proper DNS setup.
[08:48] <CoolCubix> Seveas, right, i install it
[08:49] <typhoid> fyrestrtr i'm talking about the part where it says httpd is not running, and it just hangs..
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: means, that apache can't lookup your fqdn, so its using 127.0.0.1 as its server name.
[08:49] <dpupp> my wifi card uses a mrvl...something... sys ... thats what it was using in windows. I downloaded the drivers from dlink but there are no *.inf files in there... just cabs and a set up.
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: type sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: then, point your browser to http://127.0.0.1/
[08:49] <Seveas> dpupp, good luck getting that to work -- you'll need it
[08:50] <typhoid> fyrestrtr , that's what I did to get the message you saw..  when i type it the command hangs up and says httpd is not running
[08:50] <WinToUbuntu> Hi, I have installed LAMP using the command sudo apt-get install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server I was wondering where is the apache httpd.conf and php.ini located?
[08:50] <dpupp> Seveas, funny thing is that i had it working a while back before i messed up my grub some how.... and i didnt document the steps i took... :( but im sure it works. just forgot how.
[08:51] <typhoid> also, it's not reloading  my modules
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: just do what I said please, and tell me what you see in your browser.
[08:51] <CoolCubix> Seveas, which command should i use to lauche network manager ? i cant get it with bash completion : net[tab] 
[08:51] <Seveas> CoolCubix, did you install network-manager-gnome too?
[08:51] <CoolCubix> s/lauche/launch
[08:51] <CoolCubix> hmm i think so
[08:51] <typhoid> fyrestrtr : i did it and got this: * Forcing reload of apache 2.0 web server... apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[08:51] <typhoid> httpd (pid 22890?) not running
[08:51] <Seveas> make sure you have and then log out and log back in
[08:51] <CoolCubix> ok
[08:52] <CoolCubix> Seveas, sorry, i didn't have it ^^
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: yes, I know what you got on the console, just browse to http://127.0.0.1/
[08:52] <CoolCubix> it's installing
[08:52] <egor> hola
[08:52] <WinToUbuntu> Hello, anybody knows where can I find httpd.conf and php.ini ?
[08:52] <Seveas> WinToUbuntu, httpd.conf: nowhere, php.ini: /etc/php/apache2
[08:53] <typhoid> fyrestrtr, the server is still running but it's not reloaded the modules..      thanks for your help though =D  i think i need to go to maybe the mono channel hehe
[08:53] <Seveas> WinToUbuntu, httpd.conf is called /etc/apache2/apache.conf but you shouldn't have to edit it
[08:53] <CoolCubix> Seveas, i am right back, i log out/in as you told me
[08:53] <skizzo> WinToUbuntu:  httpd.conf is deprecated in ubuntu - they changed the name to apache.conf as Seveas mentioned
[08:54] <WinToUbuntu> oh.....
[08:54] <WinToUbuntu> I was looking for that for 1 day
[08:54] <WinToUbuntu> OMG
[08:54] <WinToUbuntu> I even tried to XAMPP
[08:54] <Seveas> WinToUbuntu, you should have asked earlier ;)
[08:54] <quiet> can anyone help me with this??  i need to mount a Server 2003 share on boot.. i don't know what's wrong here:  http://rafb.net/paste/results/1K9h0937.html
[08:54] <Seveas> WinToUbuntu, and xampp is very, very useless on Ubuntu
[08:54] <txx2> Hello. I have unpartitioned space on my hardd drive. I'd like to make it a partiton for some misc data. What should I create it as?.. ext2?.. swap?...extended?
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: you are using mono?!
[08:55] <Seveas> txx2, ext3 is the recommended
[08:55] <skizzo> txx2:  you don't want to make it swap ;-)
[08:55] <WinToUbuntu> Seveas: yeah, i dun like xampp... however after spending 1 day trying to make LAMP work... i went back to it. anywys, I will try again 2mrw
[08:55] <txx2> Seveas,  I can only (for some odd reason) set it as ext2
[08:55] <office_> heloo
[08:55] <office_> i wanna find one video player
[08:56] <quiet> mplayer
[08:56] <quiet> gxine
[08:56] <office_> wich support subtitles
[08:56] <Seveas> quiet, //host/path is not correct syntax
[08:56] <quiet> Seveas, how should it be than? i google and saw someone on fedora who had that...
[08:57] <JonathanQuinn> Hi
[08:57] <Seveas> quiet, iirc it's host:path but I'm not 100% sure and looking for the correct answer ;)
[08:57] <WinToUbuntu> On another question. where does ubuntu installs the files when using apt-get install <LAMP>?
[08:57] <JonathanQuinn> did the nvidia driver run under ubuntu64?
[08:57] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: everywhere :)
[08:58] <Seveas> quiet, host:/path is what I used for smbfs, cifs should accept that syntax too
[08:58] <JonathanQuinn> can somebody help me?
[08:59] <WinToUbuntu> fyrestrtr: Yeah, i was wondering, would installing from invidual sources like tars from php.net mysql.com apache.org... and installing them manually would still install them everywhere? I knda find it "dirty" to be spreading LAMP all over the system.
[08:59] <flasher> i've installed w32codecs, as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5, but mplayer still won't play my avi files. See http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20797
[09:00] <compengi> what is the newest kernel version
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: errm, do not install from tars.
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> !lamp
[09:00] <caero_> POVaddct: ok it let me in through the command line saying something about 1 error last time it ran
[09:00] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[09:00] <POVaddct> caero_: df -h /home
[09:00] <CoolCubix> Seveas, i'm back
[09:01] <CoolCubix> :)
[09:01] <caero_> POVaddct: what does that do?
[09:01] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: just install the packages. Most of the stuff is configured upon installations. You might need to do some things, such as enable php modules, but that's easy.
[09:01] <typhoid> fyrestrtr : yup =D     , i'm trying to at least
[09:01] <CoolCubix> NetworkManager Tool State: disconnected print_devices(): didn't get a reply from NetworkManager.There are no available network devices.
[09:01] <POVaddct> caero_: show free space on the filesystem
[09:01] <CoolCubix> this is what i got when i run : nm-tool
[09:01] <caero_> POVaddct: not much left about 100MB
[09:01] <Seveas> CoolCubix, is there a new applet next to the clock?
[09:01] <Seveas> (it should be there)
[09:01] <caero_> POVaddct: or less
[09:01] <quiet> Seveas, josh@COMIS13586:~$ mount Desktop/users/
[09:01] <quiet> mount: block device //rhant01:/users is write-protected, mounting read-only
[09:01] <quiet> mount: cannot mount block device //rhant01:/users read-only
[09:02] <fyrestrtr> typhoid: you should have said that from the beginning. The information you see on the console, is not an error messages, just informative.
[09:02] <WinToUbuntu> fyrestrtr: Yeah, however that kinda makes my ubuntu "desktop".. look like a server where LAMP files is everywhere. Is it possible to have an individual DIR for each? ie: /php/ /mysql/ /apache/ ? I also want to use htdocs rather than var/www
[09:02] <quiet> Seveas, if i 'mount -t cifs... blah blah blah'  it works okay.
[09:02] <caero_> POVaddct: do I need to create more space to make it boot?
[09:02] <quiet> i just want it to be auto mounted on boot.
[09:02] <Seveas> quiet, i said host:/port, not //host:/port ;)
[09:02] <NickGarvey> quiet: set it up in your fstab
[09:02] <POVaddct> caero_: i think the filesystem is full, so the file .Xauthority can't be created on graphical login
[09:02] <hAvAAck> hey guys I have a quick question about the Ubuntu install. I have 2 HDs, the first one is 40g with windows XP on it. My 2nd one has a 40g empty partition and an 80g data-filled partition. If I want to install ubuntu on the 40g partition on the 2nd HD, can I break that partition up for swap and boot without it touching the 80g partition?
[09:02] <quiet> oh okay.
[09:02] <CoolCubix> uhh, yes ! but it show the "!" symbol and when i hang cursor on, it shows "no network" (something like that. i'm in french)
[09:03] <NickGarvey> quiet: oh this isn't a local thing, nevermind then
[09:03] <OmegaNine> Does Dapper come with a make script?  Every time i try to compile something it is telling make is not a file or command
[09:03] <caero_> POVaddct: alright I will try going into windows and adding some extra space to that partiton
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: yes it is possible, but like most things, its not advised to contort the file system. Most files are organized anyway. All configuration files are in /etc/ -- this isn't windows ;)
[09:03] <Seveas> CoolCubix, that's sort-of ok, could you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces
[09:03] <NickGarvey> OmegaNine: apt-get install buildessential
[09:03] <CoolCubix> OmegaNine, apt-get install make ?
[09:03] <NickGarvey> OmegaNine: apt-get install build-essential
[09:03] <Seveas> OmegaNine, /msg ubotu compiling
[09:03] <OmegaNine> wierd, never ran a dicrto that doesnt have that
[09:03] <WinToUbuntu> fyrestrtr: I see. lol. yeah.. im loving ubuntu
[09:04] <Seveas> OmegaNine, it's a topic of much debate
[09:04] <OmegaNine> Yeah i dont love it.
[09:04] <OmegaNine> !packages aircrack
[09:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about packages aircrack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:04] <compengi> is there a way i can limit disk space per added user?
[09:04] <Seveas> compengi, yes
[09:04] <NickGarvey> OmegaNine: use /msg ubotu info aircrack
[09:05] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on
[09:05] <compengi> Seveas, how :)
[09:05] <quiet> Seveas, if i remove the // from //host it returns a wrong fs type  :\
[09:05] <KenSentMe> I get an error when i install the ttf-ubuntu-title: 'Use of uninitialized value in print at /var/lib/defoma/scripts/gs.defoma line 108' What does it mean?
[09:05] <Seveas> compengi, with disk quotas (sorry, you're going to need google or help from someone else for more details)
[09:05] <KenSentMe> The installation seems to work fine, but the error shouldn't be there
[09:05] <pitti> hi have some problems with fglrx and dri
[09:05] <NickGarvey> compengi: pick me!  what file system do you have?
[09:05] <Seveas> KenSentMe, known error -- safe to ignore
[09:05] <OmegaNine> NickaNicka, Thats cool, but where do they keep the file?
[09:06] <compengi> NickaNicka, i'm running ubuntu
[09:06] <NickGarvey> OmegaNine: what file?
[09:06] <Seveas> pitti, please change your nickname, you have taken the nickname of a known Ubuntu developer. That will greatly confuse people
[09:06] <NickGarvey> compengi: that is your distribution, what is your file system? (type mount and it should tell you)
[09:07] <KenSentMe> Seveas: ah, ok. No need to file a bugreport then
[09:07] <mrPolite> when i open keyring manager, it prompts for the default keyring password. when i enter the password the dialog disappears then reappears. can someone please point me to where i can get help resetting my keyring password?
[09:07] <the_mook> can someone help me, I upgraded to dapper and now I don't have cdrom or storage over usb. maybe i"m missing a module but i see the cdrom, ehci_hcd and usbcore in lsmod

[09:08] <compengi> NickaNicka, yeah sure
[09:08] <siofwolves> does xchat come with ubuntu ? i can only find xchat-gnome, which is ...
[09:08] <Seveas> Platsch, could you be more specific about your problem?

[09:09] <the_mook> can someone help me, I upgraded to dapper and now I don't have cdrom or storage over usb. maybe i"m missing a module but i see the cdrom, ehci_hcd and usbcore in lsmod
[09:09] <Warbo> Platsch: That might be to do with your card. For instance, my Radeon 9200 is not supported by fglrx
[09:09] <OmegaNine> LOL oops
[09:09] <Platsch> Seveas, have install ati driver but it did not work

[09:10] <NickGarvey> park_canada: "setxkbmap [layout] "
[09:10] <NickGarvey> compengi: yes
[09:10] <Warbo> office_: MPlayer supports subtitles
[09:10] <KenSentMe> mrPolite: A bit of googling found this: delete the file default.keyring from ~/.gnome2/keyrings$
[09:10] <pluma> Mind you, this is not an ISP issue. It works just fine from my Windows box in the same network. It's only Wikipedia and, apparently, the Macromedia Flash download site that are affected. Maybe a few others as well, but most sites work just fine.
[09:10] <kitsuneofdoom> Platsch: what ati card and computer
[09:10] <compengi> NickGarvey, lol
[09:10] <park_canada> NickGarvey: what is the code for hebrew layout ?

[09:11] <CoolCubix> Seveas, yeah, it should work as dchp, what should i do ?
[09:11] <park_canada> office_: go to system->administration->synaptic manager and search 4 a viedo player
[09:11] <Warbo> office_: The first thing most people do on Ubuntu is enable the extra software in Universe and Multiverse, have you done that?
[09:11] <harisund> What does Ubuntu's Gnome use for communication? D-BUS or Bonobo?
[09:11] <Platsch> kitsuneofdoom, laptop
[09:11] <NickGarvey> park_canada: I'm not sure, and I don't want to guess because if I guess wrong things will break heh
[09:11] <kitsuneofdoom> Platsch: does it happen to be an HP?
[09:11] <Zdra> harisund: both

[09:12] <park_canada> NickGarvey: actually when i try that from the GUI i get an error msg ...
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> !alsa
[09:12] <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
[09:12] <Zdra> harisund: bonobo is slowly replaced by D-Bus
[09:12] <harisund> Zdra what does that mean? What implications does it have? Does it take a heavier toll on system resources?
[09:12] <NickGarvey> park_canada: what do you mean?
[09:12] <park_canada> NickGarvey: i eill paste bim it

[09:12] <harisund> Zdra I am guessing Kubuntu also uses both DCop and D-Bus?
[09:12] <Zdra> harisund: some applications doesn't are already ported to D-Bus, others are still using bonobo
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> JonathanQuinn: k7
[09:12] <Seveas> CoolCubix, after that: ifdown ath0 && ifup ath0 and you should be able to use it (may need another logout+login -- am not 100% sure)
[09:13] <kitsuneofdoom> JonathanQuinn: no, k8
[09:13] <JonathanQuinn> fyrestrtr: can you tell me the full name please
[09:13] <JonathanQuinn> K8
[09:13] <JonathanQuinn> ok
[09:13] <kitsuneofdoom> JonathanQuinn: if it's a 64, K8
[09:13] <Zdra> harisund: don't know for KDE... kde4 will use only dbus
[09:13] <NemesisUK> JonathanQuinn, 2.6.15-26-smp i think
[09:13] <JonathanQuinn> kitsuneofdoom: yes its an 64 bit system ! whats the ful name?
[09:13] <harisund> Zdra only use D-Bus? So does it mean we will eventually see Gnome too using only Dbus? As in Dbus becomes a standard?
[09:13] <Seveas> NemesisUK, that doesn;t exist
[09:13] <kitsuneofdoom> JonathanQuinn: yeah, actually, probably that one...best off compiling your own, maybe

[09:19] <rockoutamerica> Can someone help me out, I'm trying to install my audio drivers for my nvidia chipset. It uses the AC97 audio chip
[09:19] <sohmc> NickGarvey, thanks for your thoughts
[09:19] <Platsch> kitsuneofdoom, fglrxinfo isnt working
[09:20] <CoolCubix> Seveas, it still doesn't work... Is there another way to access wpa_supplicant ?
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> rockoutamerica: that works out of the box.
[09:20] <azcazandco> NickGarvey: still not getting print screen
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> rockoutamerica: the drivers are built-in.
[09:20] <CoolCubix> network manager seems really angry on my computer
[09:20] <azcazandco> and I need to map en and it didnt like it
[09:20] <office_> can someone help me to install one video player?
[09:20] <NickGarvey> compengi: I edited the file for you, copy and paste the new one into your fstab and save it
[09:20] <quiet> hey, i just made a replacement icon for the Main Menu if anyone's interested.. see it in my screenshot here: http://quiet.unixcorps.org/files/ubuntu-screenshot.png
[09:20] <Platsch> kitsuneofdoom, fglrxinfo: Error: unable to open display :0
[09:20] <Seveas> CoolCubix, ok, ditch network-manager then and pm me (it's too crowded in here)
[09:20] <azcazandco> I have us now and shift + 3 should give me pund sign
[09:20] <NickGarvey> azcazandco: I don't understand
[09:21] <Warbo> office_: Do you have the Universe and Multiverse package repositories enabled? Most software in Ubuntu is there
[09:21] <quiet> The icon is here: http://quiet.unixcorps.org/files/UbuntuMenu.png
[09:21] <NickGarvey> eek sorry about that
[09:21] <azcazandco> well I had lost the ability to do things like tab in gaim to auto complete names
[09:21] <azcazandco> or do screenshots
[09:21] <harisund> quiet, lol.. nice icon :)
[09:21] <azcazandco> and also I could no longer get the pound sign using shift + 3
[09:21] <NickGarvey> azcazandco: could you repeat what you said? I closed xchat on accident
[09:21] <quiet> harisund, :)
[09:21] <Warbo> quiet: Dammit your desktop's ugly :)
[09:21] <azcazandco> well I had lost the ability to do things like tab in gaim to auto complete names
[09:22] <NickGarvey> compengi: did you do what I said?
[09:22] <azcazandco> or do screenshots
[09:22] <office_> Warbo, tell me how to enable it
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> azcazandco: keyboard problems?
[09:22] <quiet> my desktop is gorgeou.
[09:22] <compengi> NickGarvey, i see nothing edited =/
[09:22] <quiet> gorgeous even.
[09:22] <azcazandco> and also I could no longer get the pound sign using shift + 3
[09:22] <Warbo> !universe > office_
[09:22] <NickGarvey> compengi: I added usrquota
[09:22] <Warbo> office_: Those instructions tell you
[09:22] <azcazandco> yes keyboard problems
[09:22] <NickGarvey> compengi: do you see it? refresh the pastebin screen
[09:22] <kitsuneofdoom> Platsch: I'm sorry...I don't think I can help
[09:22] <ao2> hallo
[09:22] <Platsch> kitsuneofdoom, thanks
[09:23] <compengi> NickGarvey, nothing =/
[09:23] <NickGarvey> compengi: you just want to edit it for users right? not for groups?
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> azcazandco: xmodmap -e "/usr/share/xmodmap.us" (or .uk) try that.
[09:23] <quiet> Warbo, it's not as pretty as my laptop which uses openbox... because this is my workstation at work.
[09:23] <javiolo> when I go to the terminal I can see it properly, I tried to move it with the screen controls but  it doesnt fit all on the screen, the text is too big, any idea ?
[09:23] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, well let me paste the line I edited
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> azcazandco: whoops, sorry
[09:23] <NickGarvey> compengi: /dev/sda5       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrquota 0       1
[09:23] <ao2> anybody has an account on launchpad.net ?
[09:23] <Warbo> Does anyone here use tracker with their deskbar? Mine has stopped working (the whole deskbar) :(
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> xmodmap -e "/usr/share/xmodmaps/xmodmap.us"
[09:23] <NickGarvey> ao2: I do
[09:23] <nox-Hand> I need grub help - I have a sorta working grub (( the menu.lst is broken )) - so I want to make the menu.lst on the livecd and thereafter mount the grub I have and move the new menu.lst there - how would I go about that?
[09:24] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on
[09:24] <Warbo> ao2: Many people do. Propbably because of the free CDs :)
[09:24] <TokenBad> nox-Hand, I installed the totem plugin it says to install but its still not playing the wmv files
[09:24] <kitsuneofdoom> A free trip to Israel  	 Disaster Relief Work
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: what do you mean its broken?
[09:24] <kitsuneofdoom> uh...stupid touchpad
[09:24] <nox-Hand> TokenBad: wrong thing...sec
[09:24] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: you are on the live cd now?
[09:24] <compengi> NickGarvey, i should replace it instead of this: /dev/sda5       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1 right?
[09:24] <Platsch> cu
[09:24] <ao2> NickGarvey,  may I qury you? I want to ask to post a comment for me about a workaround for a bug. I am not even an ubuntu use but I had the same problem on Debian.
[09:24] <billybennett> Can someone help me figure out why I suddently cannot burn any discs?
[09:24] <kitsuneofdoom> hey, bonus points for anyone who can make my touchpad stop accidentally pasting things into irssi
[09:25] <NickGarvey> compengi: add ,usrquota right after the remount-ro
[09:25] <typhoid> what is a command to make my computer tell me about a network device (eth1)?  i need to know what it's using for dns server, gateway, etc
[09:25] <elias_> When I copy a dapper installation from one laptop to another laptop of a different brand, will I have any problem except that I have to edit my xorg.conf? I am afraid, my powermanagement might not work, since for example acpi sleep does not work on my first laptop, but is known to work on my second.
[09:25] <Warbo> typhoid: ifconfig?
[09:25] <javiolo> typhoid ifconfig
[09:25] <kitsuneofdoom> elias_: I don't think that's a good idea
[09:25] <ompaul> !worksforme
[09:25] <typhoid> Warbo, javiolo, thank you!
[09:25] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[09:25] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr: it only has arch on it, and I cant get my two other distros to start, even when I manually edit the file -prob because its wrong- however, Ubuntus installer somehow scans all HDDs and makes a menu.lst - cant I do that without installing Ubuntu from scratch?
[09:25] <Warbo> elias_: If you partition differently then you may have to change /etc/fstab
[09:25] <elias_> Is there any hardware detection while desktop installation that I can't initiate later by hand?
[09:26] <elias_> Warbo: all that kind of stuff I have not problem with!
[09:26] <compengi> NickGarvey, i saved the file
[09:26] <NickGarvey> ao2: the accounts are free you know
[09:26] <radicall> hi
[09:26] <NickGarvey> compengi: could you pastebin what you saved?
[09:26] <billybennett> Can someone help me figure out why I suddently cannot burn any discs? I've tried both programs I have k3b and gnomebaker
[09:26] <azcazandco> fyrestrtr: xmodmap:  unknown command on line commandline:1
[09:26] <azcazandco> xmodmap:  1 error encountered, aborting.
[09:26] <TokenBad> nox-Hand, ok..
[09:26] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: Yes, I am on the liveCD now - missing xchat a lot
[09:26] <nox-Hand> Gaim sucks
[09:27] <Warbo> billybennett: I found that once, turned out the iso I was burning was travelling through a USB1 port
[09:27] <ao2> sure, I know but I will use it only once in my life :) I do not want to stean a tuple in their db :)
[09:27] <elias_> Warbo: I am just asking myself about the powermanagement, alsa and so forth.
[09:27] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: heh, you can still apt-get stuff, it will be saved to your RAM
[09:27] <linitrofe> hi folks... beagle question: beagle search doesn't find anything in my system (i had installed it on two machines two month ago, the first days works ok, but now nothing)
[09:27] <nox-Hand> TokenBad: punch this into a terminal window: wget -c http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/pool/dapper/i386/non-free/w32codecs/w32codecs_20060611-1plf1_i386.deb
[09:27] <compengi> NickGarvey, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20803
[09:27] <billybennett> Warbo, I'm just trying to burn files to a dvd
[09:27] <radicall> i have a problem with make install of ogre , look a this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20801
[09:27] <nox-Hand> TokenBad: then sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20060611-1plf1_i386.deb
[09:27] <nox-Hand> Then restart your app, TokenBad
[09:27] <TokenBad> nox-Hand, I have the w32codecs
[09:27] <Warbo> elias_: ALSA would be OK I think. I have never used Ubuntu on a laptop so I don't know about power management
[09:27] <Keyseir> My cursor disappears occasionaly and i have to restart to get it back. Is there any way for me to reclaim my cursor without restarting?
[09:27] <NickGarvey> compengi: good
[09:27] <OmegaNine> Thanks for the help guys
[09:27] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: cool, however,,,meh, I just want grub fixed, then into my regular ubuntu
[09:28] <nox-Hand> TokenBad: Well, does xmms play it?
[09:28] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, I'm not sure if ubuntu has quotas on automatically on its own.. I would think so..
[09:28] <Keyseir> Cursor disappearance help, anyone?
[09:28] <javiolo> silly question how do I exit when Im viewing a man page ??
[09:28] <TokenBad> nox-Hand, I am trying to get it to play within firefox based on like a life dopplar redar
[09:28] <elias_> Does anybody know about powermanagement and whether there is any detection of the capabilities of the system going on in the installation process?
[09:28] <Warbo> Keyseir: If by "restart" you mean the whole computer, then ctrl-alt-backspace will just restart the graphics. If that is what you are doing already then I don't know
[09:28] <ao2> NickGarvey, ok I am registering :) Thanks anyway
[09:29] <linitrofe> hi folks... beagle question: beagle search doesn't find anything in my system (i had installed it on two machines two month ago, the first days works ok, but now nothing)
[09:29] <Warbo> javiolo: "q"
[09:29] <NickGarvey> compengi: run this "sudo quotacheck -avug"
[09:29] <nox-Hand> Oh, just to play a file in firefox? Use mplayer :) there is a plugin for that that runs better :)
[09:29] <damion> question
[09:29] <azcazandco> fyrestrtr: any ideas?
[09:29] <javiolo> warbo oh thanks I though it was something like ctrl z
[09:29] <compengi> NickGarvey, quotacheck: Can't find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.
[09:29] <Keyseir> Warbo: I meant restarting the whole computer. The cursor loss happens when I have VMWare (a virtual machine program that "captures" the cursor) and then click on something in my regular ubuntu environment.. then it disappears and I can't get it back.
[09:29] <jlhenry> Hi!
[09:29] <nox-Hand> TokenBad: sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer <--much better than totem
[09:30] <Warbo> javiolo: I often over complicate things :)
[09:30] <damion> the quit panel only has hibernate, log out, switch user, and log screen but it doesnt have restart anymore
[09:30] <damion> the quit panel only has hibernate, log out, switch user, and log screen but it doesnt have restart anymore
[09:30] <NickGarvey> compengi: could you reboot your computer? this will mount your filesystem with quotas enabled
[09:30] <jlhenry> Does anyone know a tool that tell the encoding of a filename
[09:30] <jlhenry> &
[09:30] <jlhenry> ?
[09:30] <damion> help please!
[09:30] <damion> the quit panel only has hibernate, log out, switch user, and log screen but it doesnt have restart anymore
[09:30] <NickGarvey> damion: try not to double paste
[09:30] <damion> sorry
[09:30] <compengi> NickGarvey, okay
[09:30] <JackMacOKC> uh, flooding gets you nowhere bud
[09:30] <NickGarvey> jlhenry: "file filename"
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> jlhenry: file
[09:30] <compengi> 1 min
[09:30] <NickGarvey> jlhenry: file is the command
[09:30] <linitrofe> anyone can help me with my beagle problem?
[09:30] <nox-Hand> Any ideas about that grub thing?
[09:31] <NickGarvey> linitrofe: what about beagle?
[09:31] <jlhenry> I can use convmv in order to change the encoding, but when I do not know the source, this is difficule
[09:31] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: can you write your grub by hand?
[09:31] <siofwolves_> Warbo: thanks, enabled universe and installed the real xchat ;)
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> jlhenry: open up a terminal, and type file nameoffile -- it will tell you what it is.
[09:31] <linitrofe> NickGarvey:  beagle question: beagle search doesn't find anything in my system (i had installed it on two machines two month ago, the first days works ok, but now nothing)
[09:31] <javiolo> warbo any idea of this ? when I go to the terminal I can see it properly, I tried to move it with the screen controls but  it doesnt fit all on the screen, the text is too big
[09:31] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: not the encoding
[09:32] <NickGarvey> linitrofe: I would personally suggest the "locate" command, I find its much more efficient
[09:32] <NickGarvey> linitrofe: (run updatedb to make the indexes)
[09:32] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: absolutely...not :)
[09:32] <bsittler> hi, i think i found a buffer overrun in the python2.4 package, and i have a patch, but reportbug doesn't work. how can i get this to the maintainers?
[09:32] <Warbo> linitrofe: I couldn't get Beagle to find any of my home files, even after "walking the dog", adding indexing extensions to my filesystems, etc. :(
[09:32] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: and this will give me info on what is inside
[09:32] <elias_> Does anybody know anything about the installer?
[09:32] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: heh, its actually not that bad
[09:32] <AdamBrz> hey can i get some help getting some widescreen resolution configuring here, im on a dell e1405 im trying to do this 915resolution thing but im completely lost
[09:32] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: also, I want all my kernels and stuff, so I can boot ALL my stuff
[09:32] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: I want info on the filename in the filesystem
[09:32] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: they should be in /boot right?
[09:32] <linitrofe> NickGarvey: hahaha, i'm aware of that... but i want to give beagle a try
[09:32] <NickGarvey> linitrofe: oh, I'm not familiar with beagle much actually, first thing I do is get rid of it ;)
[09:33] <bsittler> (this buffer overrun is potentially fairly serious since it;s in repr for Unicode strings)
[09:33] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: /boot on both my arch and ubuntu system - one Windows partition too
[09:33] <FirstStrike> hmm, for some reason my sound card (sound audigy 2) is all staticy when i try to play sounds
[09:33] <linitrofe> ;)
[09:33] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: but I mean you have all of your kernels there right?
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> jlhenry: wsj_480x376[1] .mov: ISO Media, Apple QuickTime movie
[09:33] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: correct
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> jlhenry: you'll get output like that, if you need more info than that, just run the file from mplayer on the console.
[09:33] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: and I am NOW on the livecd
[09:33] <compengi> NickGarvey, back
[09:33] <NickGarvey> compengi: alright, now try quotacheck -avug
[09:33] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: Yes I know that.....
[09:33] <NickGarvey> compengi: (with sudo)
[09:34] <compengi> NickGarvey, quotacheck: Quota for users is enabled on mountpoint / so quotacheck might damage the file.
[09:34] <WinToUbuntu> Hi, how do you install a package you installed using apt-get install? ex: I want to unistall apache2
[09:34] <compengi> Please turn quotas off or use -f to force checking.
[09:34] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: I want the filename encoding. Not the data content
[09:34] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: ok, well.. I'm not sure how you would autogenerate a quota configuration
[09:34] <Keyseir> warbo: I kinda went poof htere. Did you have a response?
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2
[09:34] <jlhenry> fyrestrtr: thanks anyway
[09:34] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: how does the installer do it?
[09:34] <NickGarvey> compengi: do "quotaoff -a && quotacheck -avug && quotaon -a"
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> jlhenry: lol filename encoding? its the encoding of the file system. Usually utf8
[09:34] <AdamBrz> help with obtaining 1400 x 900 resolution on dell e1405 please
[09:34] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: absolutely no idea at all in the slightest :)
[09:34] <WinToUbuntu> fyrestrtr: thanks, does that also work for all other packages? like php mysql
[09:35] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: yes
[09:35] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: Heh, any idea who to ask?
[09:35] <Warbo> Keyseir: I was going to ask if you know about ctrl-alt to "ungrab" the cursor in VMWare
[09:35] <nox-Hand> Any Ubuntu Installer devs here?
[09:35] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: for anything that you install from synaptic, apt-get, or aptitude.
[09:35] <NickGarvey> nox-Hand: hmm.. there might be a recovery command to regenerate grub.. not really sure..
[09:35] <compengi> NickGarvey, quotacheck: Cannot open quotafile //aquota.user: Permission denied
[09:35] <compengi> quotaon: Can't open quotafile //aquota.user: Permission denied
[09:35] <compengi> quotaon: Cannot find quota file on / [/dev/sda5]  to turn quotas on/off.
[09:35] <nox-Hand> NickGarvey: Righto
[09:35] <WinToUbuntu> fyrestrtr: I see thanks, it completely removes it right.
[09:35] <NickGarvey> compengi: oh I'm sorry, use sudo in front of all of those
[09:35] <fyrestrtr> WinToUbuntu: yes
[09:35] <WinToUbuntu> ie: no left overs
[09:35] <WinToUbuntu> alright cool
[09:35] <Keyseir> Warbo: Using VMWare tools it automatically ungrabs when I move off the window. At the point of cursor loss, command keys trigger Ubuntu responses, not virtual ones.
[09:36] <JackMacOKC> NickGarvey: try grub-install
[09:36] <NickGarvey> compengi: now tell me, how much space do you want to allow to users?
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: pastebin your current menu.lst -- its probably easy to fix ;)
[09:36] <Warbo> Keyseir: OK, just getting rid of the obvious ones :)
[09:36] <NickGarvey> JackMacOKC: does that make the menu.lst though? (I have no idea)
[09:36] <Keyseir> Warbo: <nods>
[09:36] <JackMacOKC> NickGarvey: should
[09:36] <compengi> NickGarvey, quotaoff: quotactl on /dev/sda5 [/] : No such process
[09:36] <NickGarvey> compengi: and this is just for a few users right?
[09:36] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr: Which one, the one I have on my Ubuntu partition or my Arch? The ubuntu one does NOT boot, the Arch does, but only arch
[09:36] <Keyseir> Warbo: I always have VMware up, and then sometimes I go click on someone on my Ubuntu Taskbar and the cursor goes away
[09:36] <NickGarvey> compengi: um.. try quotacheck then
[09:37] <NickGarvey> compengi: sudo quotacheck -avug
[09:37] <compengi> NickGarvey, quotacheck: Cannot remount filesystem mounted on / read-only so counted values might not be right.
[09:37] <compengi> Please stop all programs writing to filesystem or use -m flag to force checking.
[09:37] <JackMacOKC> NickGarvey: IIRC, when I hosed my grub menu.lst, i just ran grub-install and it regenerated/re installed it. was no big deal.
[09:37] <Warbo> Keyseir: Well I am no Xpert (sorry, that was terrible), but I know I have problems with it (but not the same kind as you are having)
[09:37] <damion> i cannot restart my machine restart icon missing from quit panel
[09:37] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, that seems likea warning not an error though right?
[09:38] <NickGarvey> JackMacOKC: okie, maybe it will work then nox-Hand, try grub-install
[09:38] <JackMacOKC> damion: why not just type 'sudo reboot' in the terminal?
[09:38] <compengi> NickGarvey, i think so
[09:38] <Keyseir> Warbo: Is there any command that will give me my cursor back unconditionally besides rebootin?
[09:38] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, try "sudo quotaon -a" then
[09:38] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: pastebin both
[09:38] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: if arch uses grub, just paste the ubuntu entry from ubuntu's grub to arch's
[09:38] <compengi> NickGarvey, nothing
[09:38] <NickGarvey> compengi: perfect, that means it worked
[09:38] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr: Righto
[09:39] <Warbo> Keyseir: Not that I know of. Ctrl-alt-backspace resets X (basically logging out) which would prevent a FULL reboot
[09:39] <compengi> NickGarvey, :)
[09:39] <nox-Hand> Give me a moment for that :P
[09:39] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, now, how many people are you limiting?
[09:39] <riaal> Whats the best bowser? Mozilla or firefox?
[09:39] <Warbo> riaal: Epiphany
[09:39] <JackMacOKC> classic
[09:39] <POVaddct> w3m :)
[09:39] <NickGarvey> riaal: "best" is a term of preference..
[09:39] <Warbo> !best > riaal
[09:39] <compengi> NickGarvey, well at first few but then many
[09:39] <JackMacOKC> riaal: neither, lynx
[09:39] <create`work> hi
[09:39] <Warbo> hi
[09:39] <riaal> Whats the best bowser? Mozilla or firefox? (wan't to be able to view as many pages as possible, whit flash and so on)
[09:39] <trappist> anybody know if it's possible to make tar suppress the "Removing leading `/' from member names" messages?
[09:39] <create`work> i am need of some assistance from an ubuntu guru
[09:39] <create`work> lol
[09:40] <Guard] [an> hello
[09:40] <Keyseir> Warbo: I did ctrl-alt-backspace and it didn't reset X, it just turend it off. How do I get X back?
[09:40] <NickGarvey> compengi: well what I do is I set the quotas right after I make the user
[09:40] <Warbo> riaal: That is a stupid question. Try them both and see which one YOU think is best
[09:40] <NickGarvey> compengi: I mean how many?  like if you want to limit like 100 users we will need to get creative, but if its like 10 we will do each of them by hand

[09:41] <Tarandus> Though I find it ridiculous to call Firefox lightweight
[09:41] <riaal> Tarandus:  thanks,
[09:41] <NickGarvey> Tarandus: heh yeah
[09:41] <Warbo> Firefox uses the Gecko engine, but so do loads of browsers

[09:41] <NickGarvey> compengi: I don't understand, what kind of thing are you running?  like what situation do you need quotas for?
[09:42] <kitsuneofdoom> I have a problem with gnome-reset and gnome-reset-restore, mostly in that I can't find the file gnome-reset-restore is supposed to operate on

[09:43] <nox-Hand> :)
[09:43] <JackMacOKC> Xyc0:or iptables..thats what i prefer
[09:43] <compengi> NickGarvey, yes sure
[09:43] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, do "edquota user"
[09:44] <compengi> NickGarvey, i can be the one
[09:44] <NickGarvey> (where user is the user you want to limit)
[09:44] <Xyc0> Ill try both
[09:44] <JackMacOKC> create: try this -- sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:44] <Warbo> My deskbar crashes when it loads, and pops up a warning. I am pretty sure it is to do with tracker. It says "DBusException: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-tcESPBn1Yi: Connection refused" and that file doesn't exist. Any ideas?

[09:45] <lindy> I'm having a very strange permissions problem with Gnome.  My login is lindy.  From Terminal the "id" command gives a different set of groups that I belong to than "id lindy".  (whoami shows lindy).  But if I switch to (ctrl-alt F1) a terminal session, I get the correct groups.  It wouldn't matter, except that the ACL's don't work from Terminal or Gnome correctly.  Is this just weird or I...
[09:45] <lindy> ...screwed up something? (-:  Note: I haven't rebooted to see if that fixes it. hehe.
[09:45] <NickGarvey> Guard] [an: I would try apt-get update before you try that
[09:46] <Guard] [an> i did apt-get update
[09:46] <AdamBrz> ok whenever i try to do update-rc.d915resolutionstart99defaults in terminal it brings up error
[09:46] <AdamBrz> what did i do wrong?
[09:46] <NickGarvey> compengi: good, do you see "hard limit" or something?
[09:47] <compengi> NickGarvey, yes
[09:47] <pluma> Anyone yet able to explain to me why I get a Look Up timeout on wikipedia.org (and some other domains) on my Linux box when the Windows box on the same internet connection has no such issues? It's not the ISP's fault, probably not a hardware issue and I've disabled IPv6 as per the wiki article.
[09:47] <NickGarvey> compengi: that is the absolute limit, you can't use more space than you specify there
[09:47] <NickGarvey> compengi: now how much space do you want to allow?
[09:47] <compengi> NickGarvey, lets say 20MB
[09:47] <Warbo> Would creating a socket called /tmp/dbus-tcESPBn1Yi help me? And if so, how do I do it?
[09:47] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr: Rather long paste :P
[09:48] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, I'm going to use the site http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/calculate/ to convert 20M to kilobytes (the number needs to be in kilos)
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> yeah I'm on it.
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> tell me about your partition layout.
[09:48] <NickGarvey> compengi: ok, put 20480 there
[09:48] <compengi> NickGarvey, under hard?
[09:48] <KenSentMe> I try to open a .mov file in Avidemux, but it crashes when i load the file. This is the info avidemux gives in terminal: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20806 . Anyone has any idea what i can do to fix it?
[09:48] <NickGarvey> compengi: yes
[09:49] <Guard] [an> NickGarvey, hmm ok i add to had universe and multiverse to my dapper-updates entry in /etc/apt/sources.list

[09:49] <flam> how do i make an apt-get upgrade WITHOUT the kernel-packages beeing installed? I've got my custom made kernel and don't want a generic one to get installed
[09:49] <tuliomgui> ymlu: but shutting down? have you seen this?? It just suddenly shuts down
[09:49] <compengi> NickGarvey, how to save
[09:50] <JackMacOKC> flam: use synaptic
[09:50] <NickGarvey> compengi: do you know what editor you are using?
[09:50] <NickGarvey> compengi: probably nano, try "ctrl x" and then type "yes"
[09:50] <flam> JackMacOKC: isn't there another way?
[09:50] <german> ijsidjkij
[09:50] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr: Shoot, sorry, I am currently in gaim, where ping messages are hard to see...sec, will change to irssi
[09:50] <JackMacOKC> flam: yes, but thats the easiest that i know
[09:51] <Phenax> flam: I'm not exactly sure, but why don't you just make your kernel a different name then the generic one (Not vmz* bzImage, etc) and set your bootloader to boot it
[09:51] <Warbo> flam: Get rid of linux-image-386 and meta-packages like that
[09:51] <flam> Warbo: hm, that's an idea.
[09:51] <german> hanna_
[09:51] <Warbo> flam: That's what I do, but I forget however many there are

[09:52] <compengi> NickGarvey, sudo quotaon -a

[09:56] <Ropechoborra> Dabian fat32
[09:56] <Warbo> Ropechoborra: It will probably be /dev/sdX (a,b,c,d,etc). You can do it with System>Admin>Discs, or "sudo mkfs.format /dev/device"
[09:56] <Dabian> Ropechoborra, assuming its device /dev/sdh1 ... hmm .. I forgot how to create a vfat file system.
[09:57] <Dabian> !mke2fs
[09:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mke2fs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:57] <Warbo> "sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdh1"

[09:57] <compengi> NickGarvey, umm do you know how to copy and paste from root user to another user?
[09:57] <tuliomgui> anybody here have seen the windows shutting down by himself after installing the linux??
[09:57] <NickGarvey> compengi: I don't understand what you mean?
[09:57] <Warbo> Ropechoborra: Don't do it to the whole device, just the devicename of the partition
[09:58] <Warbo> (sdb1 is partition 1 of sdb for example)
[09:58] <compengi> NickGarvey, i want to copy a file from my dir to a test user
[09:58] <german> fdhdfhfdhfdh
[09:58] <german> hfhfhfgh
[09:58] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - not really, but there is a setting in windows to restart after a crash
[09:58] <NickGarvey> compengi: oh, um, sudo cp /root/filename ~
[09:58] <harisund> Hello! Would it be possible to speed boot time, and the OS in general if I were to blacklist some modules that I know I don't use in a lsmod listing?
[09:58] <Warbo> german: Take your head off the keyboard
[09:58] <JackMacOKC> compengi: sudo cp src dest
[09:58] <NickGarvey> compengi: but.. that will not work..
[09:58] <NickGarvey> compengi: because.. the user won't own the file, root will
[09:58] <NickGarvey> compengi: and root can do what it wants ;)
[09:59] <Delorian> Ubuntu 6.06.1 hangs on "Mounting root file system..." on my laptop.  I think it might be due to my external cd-rom drive, but i can't remove it, it's where the ubuntu cd is :(
[09:59] <NickGarvey> compengi: so I would just downlaod something, like damn small linux, which is 50 MB
[09:59] <harisund> compengi what do you want to try?
[09:59] <JackMacOKC> compengi: after you copy sudu chown user:user file
[09:59] <gopss> not sure
[09:59] <NickGarvey> compengi: after you do that the file should stay, but then if you try to make anytihng else it should not work
[10:00] <whirm> hi all
[10:00] <NickGarvey> compengi: so cp the file, chown it, and then try "echo "test > ~/test"
[10:00] <NickGarvey> compengi: that command should file
[10:00] <Warbo> hello whirm
[10:00] <JMBP> hi.. .has anyone had sucess with an inspiron 6400 and 1280x800 resolution?
[10:01] <Warbo> Does anyone know how to make a socket in /tmp?
[10:02] <whirm> I want to add a feature to ubiquity, (search for an old installed system and reuse the / and /home partitions, deleting the root) where should I start to look?, there are lots of code and I have little time...
[10:02] <TokenBad> which repository has mozilla-player?
[10:02] <NickGarvey> compengi: I need to go, things are pretty much working, someone else should be able to help from here
[10:02] <whirm> JMBP: do you have an intel card?
[10:02] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: but it doesnt restart
[10:02] <compengi> NickGarvey, ty very much
[10:02] <Warbo> TokenBad: What is mozilla-player?
[10:02] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: it shuts down as if the power was off
[10:02] <compengi> NickGarvey, maybe will talk later
[10:03] <ubuntu_> o.O
[10:03] <ubuntu_> my nick is "Ubuntu"  :S
[10:04] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - ?? sounds like an acpi issue. not sure how linux would do this
[10:04] <Phenax> ubuntu_: Your IRC Client probably draws your nick from your username?
[10:04] <Warbo> ubuntu_: That is the default. Someone else is using it, so you get an underscore
[10:04] <JMBP> whirm: yes, i do... i have tryed unsuccessfully dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (the mode 1280x800 is apparently fine on xorg.conf)
[10:04] <ubuntu_> oohh
[10:04] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: im not sure if it is really the linux, but it started after i installed the linux
[10:04] <ubuntu_> i am new in linux
[10:04] <compengi> ubuntu_, did you register your nick
[10:04] <linuxgoober> where is grub.conf located?
[10:04] <ubuntu_> i want learn it :P
[10:04] <nox-Hand> No work Ubuntu, fyrestrtr
[10:04] <whirm> JMBP: you must hotpatch the bios with 915resolution
[10:04] <nox-Hand> I get File not found :/
[10:04] <Warbo> linuxgoober: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:04] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - did you add anyhardware
[10:04] <linuxgoober> k thx
[10:04] <nox-Hand> However..Arch Boots :)
[10:05] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: no
[10:05] <ubuntu_> ;)
[10:05] <whirm> JMBP: (the video bios)
[10:05] <ubuntu_> i come later
[10:05] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: it still the same as before
[10:05] <whirm> JMBP: aptitude install 915resolution and edit /etc/default/915resoultion
[10:05] <whirm> *resolution
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: what error do you get?
[10:05] <JMBP> whirm: i have read some threads about it, but i wasn't sure because, the driver support that resolution natively, so i was wonder that i was doing something wrong...
[10:05] <nox-Hand> File not Found
[10:05] <nox-Hand> Thats it
[10:05] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, ^
[10:05] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - does it shut down in linux?
[10:06] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: okay, where is ubuntu installed? what drive, what partition. Are you in arch now?
[10:06] <whirm> JMBP: the driver suports it, the lcd panel too, but that resolution is not on the vbios list, and so Xorg doesn't let you use it
[10:06] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: no
[10:06] <haga> is the 'cpu' included when you buy a 'barebone' system?
[10:07] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, I am in arch. the partition Ubuntu is on it /dev/hda1
[10:07] <whirm> JMBP: with 915resolution you will add this resolution in the list everytime you boot the system
[10:07] <Warbo> haga: It depends on the supplier
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: run grub (type grub)
[10:07] <JMBP> whirm: I understand... I'll give 915 resolution a try...
[10:07] <Delorian> okay, this might sound odd, but is there any way to install ubuntu from inside windows?

[10:07] <whirm> JMBP: no problem ;-)
[10:07] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - hm? just run lnx, just kidding. that's a good one. i can't hink of anything that would shut down the system.
[10:07] <SkippyJames_omer> hey everyone
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> IRCMonkeyX: no, connect the machine to the router
[10:08] <Mozo> I want to serve with apache, installation files to create an apt-get local server in my network
[10:08] <Mozo> but these files is in an cd-rom
[10:08] <whirm> Delorian: why do you want to do that?
[10:08] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, Yes?
[10:08] <nox-Hand> I am there
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> Mozo: you want apt-proxy
[10:08] <IRCMonkeyX> fyrestrtr: what about file sharing ?
[10:08] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - did you change any bios settings
[10:08] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: no
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> IRCMonkeyX: for that you need samba.
[10:08] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: i want to create an repository in my network

[10:08] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: are you at the grub> prompt?
[10:08] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: no... =/
[10:08] <SkippyJames_omer> should we reinstall the graphic drivers after changing the resolution
[10:09] <Delorian> whirm: i don't know, i'm going a little crazy. ubuntu won't even start on my laptop, it doesn't get to the desktop so i can't install.
[10:09] <SkippyJames_omer> does anyone know about tahat
[10:09] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, Yes
[10:09] <Warbo> haga: Doesn't look like it does, since it says what the board SUPPORTS, and then gives broad chipset types. If it included a processor then it would obviously include specs for it
[10:09] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: i created an symlink to the pool/ and dists/ directory in cd-rom
[10:09] <whirm> Delorian: it hangs at half booting?
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: okay now type root (hd and then hit tab, what does it list?
[10:09] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: but the apache not allow the access to it files
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> Mozo: I don't think you need a repo, just a cache.
[10:09] <nox-Hand> Possible disks are:  hd0 hd1 hd2, fyrestrtr
[10:09] <IRCMonkeyX> fyrestrtr: thanx, let me search what ip do i need to assign to laptop :)
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> Mozo: fix permissions
[10:09] <Delorian> whirm: yes, the nice ubuntu splash screen comes up, but it hangs while loading the window manager
[10:10] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: i tried to fix it..
[10:10] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: with chmod
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: root (hd1,<tab>
[10:10] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: but i can't
[10:10] <TokenBad> Warbo, mean mozilla-mplayer
[10:10] <Delorian> whirm: or maybe right after loading the window manager, because the window manager icon is there.  it just makes a lot of noise spinning the cd-rom after that.
[10:10] <Warbo> TokenBad: I would guess universe, hang on
[10:10] <nox-Hand>  Possible partitions are:   Partition num: 0,  Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7   Partition num: 2,  Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83   Partition num: 4,  Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x82   Partition num: 5,  Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xbb fyrestrtr

[10:12] <harisund> Can somebody tell me how to disable IPv6? I am running only the command line and Ubotu is giving me a webpage that I can not access immediately.
[10:12] <DARKGuy> Greetings, is there an equivalent in Ubuntu for Gentoo's "eselect" ? I'm following a how-to and it says about using "eselect" but even as root the command is not found, so I wonder if there's the same command or similar in Ubuntu?
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> !ipv6 > harisund
[10:12] <capiCrimm> anyone know how to change the default mutt directory. I'd prefer ~/mail over ~/Mail
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> DARKGuy: what are you eselecting?
[10:12] <gnumber9> tuliomgui - without going through a bunch of how you installed it, I'm really stumped. i've never heard of this and I' been fixin pc's for 8 years, sorry
[10:12] <Mozo> fyrestrtr: what the command to mount with a different umask ?
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> capiCrimm: symlink :)
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> Mozo: man mount, the options are all there.
[10:12] <harisund> fyrestrtr I already asked Ubotu. I want to know if I can do it over the commandline. I don't have a GUI right now (and I am using irssi). Is there like a command to do that?
[10:13] <Delorian> whirm: i just started attempting to boot after adding xforcevesa to the boot options. should i cancel and attempt to run the integrity check?
[10:13] <Warbo> vdepizzol: Are you sure Audacity is Wx? Just that I have found my theme's colours get applied to Wx stuff, but not to Audacity
[10:13] <ivx> does any one know how ubuntu will run on dual processors
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> harisund: its all command line, you don't need to use the gui to disable ipv6
[10:13] <DARKGuy> fyrestrtr: nvidia opengl... here: "# eselect opengl set nvidia " link => http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_and_update_World_Of_Warcraft_with_Cedega
[10:13] <capiCrimm> fyrestrtr, I'd still have a dir called ~/Mail :)
[10:13] <tuliomgui> gnumber9: np man...thanks for the help
[10:13] <Warbo> ivx: Yes. Use the SMP kernels
[10:13] <harisund> fyrestrtr so do you know the commands? As I said, I don't have a GUI to access the browser and find out the commands
[10:13] <tuliomgui> ill try to reinstall windows and see
[10:13] <ivx> thanks warbo
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> DARKGuy: in ubuntu, that would be 'open up xorg.conf, change Driver "nv" to Driver "nvidia"'
[10:13] <altair> I cant find nw-applet, it isnt in synaptic, can someone offer me some direction in finding it
[10:13] <gerrit> /timerc 0 0 /color background $rand(0,15)
[10:13] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, No idea
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> harisund: ooh, that's the problem :) okay wait a sec.
[10:13] <nox-Hand> Well, when I mount /dev/hda1 I get ubuntu root :)
[10:13] <DARKGuy> fyrestrtr: Oh, awesome! thanks a lot :D
[10:14] <whirm> Delorian: If the cdrom is going mad It should not make any better with that option, but if you want to try...
[10:14] <JMBP> whirm: worked like a charm... do i need to do anything else to keep 915resolution starting every time at boot?
[10:14] <vdepizzol> Warbo: in audacity package, there is "libwxgtk" dependency
[10:14] <cdubya> altair, what are you looking for?
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: find out -- you need that info.
[10:14] <altair> nw-applet
[10:14] <harisund> fyrestrtr thanks :) I would be quite grateful, otherwise I will get some friend's machine or my school machine and find out.
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: you need to map the drives correctly in drub.
[10:14] <cdubya> what's that?
[10:14] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, I just told you, when I mount /dev/hda1, I get ubuntu root
[10:14] <nox-Hand> So that is ubuntu
[10:14] <Warbo> vdepizzol: I think it is GTK (as in GTK1)
[10:14] <altair> wireless network selector and monitor
[10:14] <nox-Hand> /dev/hda1
[10:14] <SkippyJames_omer> should we reinstall the graphic drivers after changing the resolution
[10:14] <cdubya> altair, have you tried network-admin?
[10:15] <cdubya> works fine for me
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: hda1 is probably hd1,1 in grub
[10:15] <vdepizzol> Warbo: GTK1 isn't so ugly
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> check the file system type of that
[10:15] <altair> does it have a wireless essid selector
[10:15] <whirm> JMBP: ls /etc/rc2.d/S*915resolution
[10:15] <lemsx1> any admins here?
[10:15] <jpjacobs> fyrestrtr, hda1 is hd0,0 in grub
[10:15] <cdubya> altair, yep, under the properties
[10:15] <lemsx1> why is "lhds" banned?
[10:15] <harisund> fyrestrtr I fixed it. Thanks :)
[10:15] <cdubya> altair, or you could try one of the others.....
[10:16] <rebelfallen> Guys I can't get my wireless to work. I do iwconfig and it all says "no wireless extensions" what can I do?
[10:16] <altair> cdubya, nwapplet has all of the aviable networks in a list
[10:16] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, 0,1
[10:16] <nox-Hand> a is 0
[10:16] <nox-Hand> I am pretty sure of it
[10:16] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: hrmm then I am sleepier than I think lol
[10:16] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen: iwconfig <interface name>
[10:16] <cdubya> altair, you can install kwifimanager or gtk-wifi....
[10:16] <JMBP> whirm: i found /etc/rc2.d/S12915resolution, so I wonder I wont have problems, rigth?
[10:16] <Febs> I'm about to format a partition on a data drive that I want to be accessible both from windows and ubuntu.  Am I correct that I'll need to format FAT32 to accomplish this?
[10:16] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, Well, it must be, as arch is on hdb, and thats 1,2 :) (( hdb3 ))
[10:16] <whirm> JMBP: right ;-)
[10:17] <nox-Hand> So, 0,0
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: open up menu.lst, change root (hd0,0) to (hd0,1) for the ubuntu line, reboot and try it.
[10:17] <cdubya> altair, err, gtkwifi
[10:17] <rebelfallen> jconcepcion: Do I make one up?
[10:17] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, that would be hda2?
[10:17] <JMBP> whirm: once again thanks a lot... see ya!
[10:17] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen:
[10:17] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen: no
[10:17] <nox-Hand> I will try, yes
[10:17] <tuxtux> reboot
[10:17] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, Thanks again for your help
[10:17] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen: what do you get with ifconfig
[10:17] <nox-Hand> If this does not work, I am afraid I will have to turn in
[10:17] <nox-Hand> I gotta go school tomorrow, and its late..
[10:17] <lemsx1> any admins? why is "lhds" banned?
[10:17] <rebelfallen> eth0, lo
[10:17] <W9ZEB-Lars> is there anything special I need to do in order to install the newest version of Wine on Daper?
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: sure, if it doesn't boot, use the grub editor from the menu itself (hit e) and play with the root line till you get it.
[10:18] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen:  how many interfaces
[10:18] <fyrestrtr> nox-Hand: did windows boot?
[10:18] <W9ZEB-Lars> or will grabbing the .deb from their site work fine?
[10:18] <rebelfallen> 3 I guess. lo, eth0 and sit0
[10:18] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen: ifconfig -a
[10:19] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, didnt check
[10:19] <rebelfallen> 3 I guess. lo, eth0 and sit0
[10:19] <Warbo> W9ZEB-Lars: There is a repository available
[10:19] <nox-Hand> fyrestrtr, I gotta go, if it works, Ill be back
[10:19] <nox-Hand> if not, I wont
[10:19] <nox-Hand> Cheers fyrestrtr :)
[10:19] <Warbo> W9ZEB-Lars: Look on winehq.org
[10:19] <Warbo> W9ZEB-Lars: Or help.ubuntu.com/community
[10:19] <jconcepcion> rebelfallen: what type of wireless card?
[10:20] <Guard] [an> do i need x libraries on my "server box" if i want to do export display ?
[10:20] <LinuxHelp> I've just done an apt-get dist-upgrade, and now whenever I start a wine application (wine 0.9.19) my screen goes black, and I get the error at the end of this log http://prototypejack.selfip.net/Xorg.0.log
[10:21] <Delorian> whirm: is the inegrity check to verify the disc? i've tried numerous downloads and numerous copies. i even burned them at low speeds to reduce error.
[10:21] <SkippyJames_omer> should we reinstall the graphic drivers after changing the resolution
[10:21] <Brokenstein> hi i just did a clean ubuntu reinstall and switched to linux-686 (working fine) except every time i open add/remove programs it tells me it out of date no matter how many times i reload. what does this mean/how can i fix it?
[10:21] <whirm> Delorian: yes,
[10:21] <W9ZEB-Lars> Warbo: Danke.
[10:21] <sethk> Brokenstein, tells you what is out of date?
[10:21] <Delorian> whirm: well, i'll run that right now.
[10:21] <FirstStrike> SkippyJames_omer: just changing resolution shouldn't be any reason to reinstall your drivers.
[10:22] <sethk> SkippyJames_omer, reconfigure, not reinstall
[10:22] <whirm> Delorian: have you tried to md5sum the iso file and compare with the one in the download page?
[10:22] <Warbo> Is there a way to tell Nautilus to disregard transparent areas of icons? It used to be "click-transparent" but now it isn't
[10:22] <SkippyJames_omer> FirstStrike, thanks there is something wrong with the fonts and the overall quality
[10:22] <SkippyJames_omer> that is why i asked
[10:23] <Delorian> whirm: no, i actually don't know how to do that. i've always wondered.
[10:23] <whirm> open a terminal
[10:23] <dpupp> i think im using the wrong drivers in ndiswrapper for my dwl-g510. could someone tell me where i can get the right drivers for a revision a? im currently using mrv8k51 but thats coming back as a pcmcia. i cheked dlink page, but their downloads are cabs and exe. no inf/sys.
[10:23] <SkippyJames_omer> sethk, do you mean with dpkg-reconfigure xconfig or sometihng else
[10:23] <tuxtux> riciao
[10:23] <FirstStrike> what graphics card?
[10:24] <grogoreo> would I miss anything, when setting up configuration files, from dist-upgrading from Breezy to Dapper? It isn't possible to do a clean install of Dapper as I'm using a remote VM
[10:24] <Delorian> whirm: on windows here...do you mean command prompt?
[10:24] <zoidberg> hey guys i have a problem
[10:24] <whirm> Delorian: oh...
[10:24] <whirm> uhm...
[10:24] <zoidberg> i just installed ubuntu badger on an new world G3 powerbook
[10:24] <sethk> SkippyJames_omer, dpkg-reconfrigure is good for changing resolutions
[10:24] <zoidberg> its all working
[10:24] <santa99> he guys how can i chance my locale
[10:24] <zoidberg> internet is also working
[10:24] <dpupp> is it possible to extract information from cab files so i can get the sys/inf files out? .... how? ...
[10:24] <rebelfallen> whats the command to check my wireless card?
[10:24] <john___> Hello, I have a newbie troubleshooting q. re: PHPEclipse debugging.. i.e. where does the PHP executable live?
[10:24] <zoidberg> but whe i try to download a package from the terminal "sudo apt-get install fluxbox"
[10:24] <farous> rebelfallen: iwconfig
[10:25] <zoidberg> it syas pacakge cant be found
[10:25] <whirm> Delorian:  http://md5summer.org/
[10:25] <dj_ryan> ah, i am here to say i switched from debian to ubuntu server. sweet.
[10:25] <rebelfallen> it doesnt show there
[10:25] <zoidberg> i tried a couple of otehr pacakges
[10:25] <zoidberg> and same problem
[10:25] <zoidberg> any help?
[10:25] <john___> (or, is there a page somewehre about ubuntu php denugging?
[10:25] <rebelfallen> farous, I just get eth0 and lo, wlan is nowhere. I need to look at the actual wireless hardware
[10:25] <Warbo> !info cabextract
[10:25] <ubotu> cabextract: a program to extract Microsoft Cabinet files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1-1 (dapper), package size 43 kB, installed size 144 kB
[10:25] <yum> Hello all, is ist possible to use reg expr. with chmod, or just  wildcards like chmod 555 ./* . If yes how do I do this?
[10:25] <sethk> zoidberg, probably you need to set up your repositories
[10:25] <santa99> would be nice if I could change the locale through the gui
[10:25] <zoidberg> how do i do that?
[10:26] <sethk> yum, you can produce a file list using regular expressions, and then use that list with chmod
[10:26] <azureal> zoidberg, gksudo synaptic
[10:26] <FirstStrike> rebelfallen: lspci
[10:26] <zoidberg> what is "gksudo"?
[10:26] <FirstStrike> shows all hardware on your system
[10:26] <SkippyJames_omer> FirstStrike, nividia 7300 go
[10:26] <john___> can anyone help?
[10:26] <yum> sethk: could you give me a small sample?
[10:26] <azureal> !gksudo
[10:26] <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}
[10:26] <santa99> no ideas ?
[10:26] <sethk> zoidberg, sudo lets you run with root privileges.  gksudo is the gtk (gui) version
[10:26] <farous> rebelfallen: iwconfig if a wireless device is there. what type of card you have
[10:26] <Warbo> zoidberg: Lets graphical programs run as super user without screwing up preference files
[10:26] <SkippyJames_omer> sethk, thanks man i will try that
[10:27] <FirstStrike> SkippyJames_omer: what drivers do you have installed?
[10:27] <sethk> yum, something like   chmod +whatever $(ls | egrep 'some pattern')
[10:27] <rebelfallen> farous: ....... that's exactly what I am trying to find out, I don't know what card I have. I need to set it up as obviously it is not compatible
[10:27] <FirstStrike> some people have had issues with the newest and rolled back to the previous version
[10:27] <whirm> Delorian: I'm going to sleep a bit, I hope you will find your way :-)
[10:27] <yum> sethk: thx
[10:27] <sethk> yum, that works if the list is a reasonable size.  If it is thousands of files you have to use a bit more complex methods.
[10:27] <farous> rebelfallen: lspci and scroll at the output
[10:27] <farous> it is a built in or usb card?
[10:28] <zoidberg> so using GUI synaptic i will be able to download repositories...but not from the terminal?
[10:28] <Delorian> whirm: uhoh, could my problem be that i do not have more than 192mb of ram?
[10:28] <Guard] [an> how can i ping by computer name rather than by IP ? when ip addresses are distributed by DHCP ?
[10:28] <SkippyJames_omer> FirstStrike, nvidia-glx
[10:28] <sethk> zoidberg, you can do it at the terminal with sudo, or in the gui
[10:28] <sethk> zoidberg, you would do:  sudo apt-get install whatever
[10:28] <SkippyJames_omer> FirstStrike, is that the wrong one
[10:28] <sethk> zoidberg, but first you need to set your repositories, which is just a text file.
[10:28] <riwa> I just did a server install but when I try to install "xubuntu-desktop" it asks for the "Dapper disk". How do I install from the web?
[10:28] <Warbo> zoidberg: You can add repositories manually with a terminal-based text editor if you REALLY want to
[10:29] <Delorian> whirm: anyway, thanks for your help, goodnight.
[10:29] <sethk> zoidberg, it's easier to set the respositories with synaptic
[10:29] <whirm> Delorian: ouch! , well, yes, I think it'll will be that....
[10:29] <sethk> zoidberg, which has a nice interface and you don't have to edit text file.
[10:29] <rebelfallen> D-Link DWL-G132
[10:29] <Delorian> whirm: i'll try the "alternate" cd
[10:29] <farous> Guard] [an: you have to define the pc names in /etc/hosts file
[10:29] <Warbo> Repositories are set with System>Admin>Software Properties (Synaptic is a less direct method)
[10:29] <zoidberg> so what do i do now?
[10:29] <whirm> Delorian: xubuntu should run with less RAM
[10:29] <zoidberg> i'm trying to get fluxbox
[10:30] <farous> Guard] [an: or at least use the network-admin
[10:30] <Delorian> whirm: alright, i will check that out as well.  thank you very much.
[10:30] <zoidberg> the pc i have i didnt have to mess with repisotries to get fluxbox
[10:30] <zoidberg> and synaptic doesnt show it
[10:30] <zoidberg> ?
[10:30] <whirm> Delorian: no problem :-) bye!
[10:30] <Guard] [an> farous: but computers don't have static ips
[10:30] <farous> rebelfallen: put my name if you talk to me so i can see your message highlighted
[10:30] <Warbo> zoidberg: System>Administration>Software Properties then add Community Maintained Universe and Mutiverse
[10:31] <rebelfallen> farous, sorry. D-Link DWL-G132
[10:31] <farous> Guard] [an: than it would be really hard to talk to them
[10:31] <farous> rebelfallen: is it built in
[10:31] <warlocky> is there a way to 'mark' everything in "nano" the text editor, then delete it ?
[10:31] <warlocky> I want to mark everything in a file, and delete it.
[10:31] <tamarakahl> yes
[10:32] <nixternal> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PoweredBy   <- Powered by Ubuntu templates for those interested in creating stickers
[10:32] <warlocky> how tamarakahl ?
[10:32] <tamarakahl> you're real?
[10:32] <tamarakahl> no
[10:32] <Warbo> nixternal: I have stickers. They came with my CDs :)
[10:32] <dpupp> ok, so i have the right drivers i need for my wifi card, but they are packed up in cab/exe. how do i get those out of there to use with ndis?
[10:32] <farous> rebelfallen: first it need to be configured if it does not use an open source driver
[10:33] <farous> dpupp: extract them on window box or install wine and use it to extract them
[10:33] <fyrestrtr> dpupp: file-roller can open cabs
[10:33] <zoidberg> where is "software properties"?
[10:33] <zoidberg> its not in system<administration
[10:33] <Warbo> zoidberg: System>Administration at the top of the screen in GNOME
[10:33] <dpupp> file roller? is that in synaptic?
[10:33] <zoidberg> yeah but there is no software properties
[10:34] <Warbo> dpupp: Fileroller is installed by default
[10:34] <dpupp> thanks.
[10:34] <azureal> zoidberg, why didnt you just do Settings --> Repositories from synaptic/?!??!
[10:34] <Warbo> zoidberg: Then Synaptic>Settings>Repositories should do the same thing
[10:34] <fyrestrtr> zoidberg: system > administration > software properties
[10:34] <Warbo> Sorry, I just realised he's in Breezy
[10:34] <fyrestrtr> oh
[10:35] <dpupp> warbo, i try to open the cab but it gives error. "could not display"

[10:39] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:39] <farous> RalleAb: to force cp use -f option

[10:42] <Daishi> cp -f
[10:43] <Flannel> Daishi: isn't it .Xsession?
[10:43] <Daishi> dont put it in the middle
[10:43] <Daishi> Flannel: it is?
[10:43] <RalleAb> ah I will try that, thanks
[10:43] <Daishi> silly me
[10:43] <farous> RalleAb: for you do not have access write to /etc folder which is sys folder
[10:43] <farous> RalleAb: why you want to change a file there
[10:43] <Daishi> Flannel: thanks ill try that
[10:43] <Daishi> RalleAb: you always put flags first
[10:43] <raf> hello
[10:44] <Flannel> Daishi: I... think it might be.  not too hard to try ;)
[10:44] <azureal> Daishi, strange; i don't have an .Xsession file ;)
[10:44] <azureal> ah, maybe it's a breezy thing
[10:45] <zoidberg> hey guys i have another question now

[10:45] <Flannel> !tell zoidberg about upgrade
[10:45] <azureal> lol

[10:46] <flasher> what's the SIP address for that?
[10:46] <RalleAb> farous sudo cp -f etc/* /etc/ still doesn't do anything.. I look in the folder and the new folders havent appeared
[10:47] <flasher> 500@ekiga.net
[10:47] <farous> RalleAb: you are trying to subs etc folder which is a sys folder for config your packages

[10:48] <Daishi> nope .Xsession didnt work Flannel
[10:48] <erUSUL> !es > riwa
[10:48] <Daishi> i wonder what the problem could be
[10:48] <donrosin> how can i see witch prosess thats driving
[10:48] <Daishi> .xsession-errors shows nothing useful
[10:48] <riwa> donrosin: ps -a; top; kill
[10:48] <RalleAb> farous: I am installing the cedega from my old computer but I dont have the install files, only the cedega files.. and they are supposed to go in there
[10:48] <farous> RalleAb: if you just say what you want to do would be easier to help you
[10:49] <riwa> donrosin: Check the man pages of these
[10:49] <farous> RalleAb: is it a dir or just single file
[10:49] <kdotsky> would anyone be able to help install a usb wireless stick?
[10:49] <RalleAb> a dir with a subdir with 2 subdirs with files in
[10:49] <kdotsky> having a hell of a time
[10:49] <n00buntu> I'm coming over from another distro to ubuntu - where are the "computer", "<user>'s home", and "trash" icons that are supposed to be on the desktop?
[10:49] <RalleAb> its etc/X11/
[10:49] <Daishi> RalleAb: cp -r
[10:49] <RalleAb> dir: susewrm
[10:49] <RalleAb> dir: applink
[10:49] <farous> RalleAb: and i doubt copying the etc config file will do it you need to reinstall the package
[10:49] <RalleAb> it will do it
[10:49] <RalleAb> I did it a few weeks ago
[10:50] <markrian> n00buntu: Check the Places menu on the top panel
[10:50] <mrPolite> well, im pretty sure i just hosed my system
[10:50] <mrPolite> yay me
[10:50] <markrian> That should have your home
[10:50] <markrian> And the disks
[10:50] <azureal> Daishi: this file is just customization of something like your terminal?
[10:50] <erUSUL> n00buntu: this are disbled in ubuntu. you can enble them with gconf-editor>apps>nautilus>desktop
[10:50] <mcphail> n00buntu: the trash icon is on the bottom panel. The other locations are available from the "Places" menu
[10:50] <n00buntu> Oh
[10:50] <ardesh> Question to all: How do i Create /dev/eth0 at Ubuntu 6.06
[10:50] <RalleAb> the -r did it
[10:50] <Daishi> azureal: no i want it to run xbindkeys and xmodmap
[10:50] <farous> RalleAb: ok sudo mkdir /etc/<cedega dir name> then  sudo cp -rf /etc/<cedega dir name> /etc/<cedeg dir name>
[10:51] <Daishi> so i can have my multimedia keys be desktop agnostic
[10:51] <n00buntu> Thanks.
[10:51] <n00buntu> I got 'em now
[10:51] <markrian> ardesh: presumably you want to activate a network device?
[10:51] <azureal> i'm not sure if you're supposed to use xrdb for that or not
[10:51] <markrian> ardesh: Because making /dev/eth0 is not the way to do it ;)
[10:51] <Daishi> xrdb?
[10:51] <mnvl> i know it's not ubuntu specific, but where is the ld loader library search path stored?
[10:52] <farous> ardesh: eth0 is just an alias unfourt i do not know the actual name. use network-admin to see if it is recognized
[10:52] <Daishi> azureal: from the man page it doesnt look like xrdb does that
[10:52] <azureal> Daishi: after making changes to my urxvt terminal in file .Xresources, for example, instead of restarting the session i just do "xrdb .Xresources"
[10:53] <RalleAb> !nvidia
[10:53] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:53] <Daishi> ohh
[10:53] <azureal> so you could try maybe "xrdb -merge .Xsession"
[10:53] <kdotsky> is there any reason a usb wireless drive would be any different to setup in kubuntu?
[10:53] <erUSUL> mnvl: /etc/ld.so.conf ??
[10:54] <Daishi> azureal: from what i can tell xrdb has no ability to execute commands
[10:55] <azureal> Daishi, as i understand it, xrdb reads a file into your X server resources
[10:55] <quiet> how do you use cups in ubuntu, since it askes for username/password of root... (inserting normal user name and password is denied)
[10:55] <Daishi> well ill try it but i have to go now
[10:55] <azureal> xrdb <filename> to overwrite, and xrdb -merge <filename> to add to the existing one
[10:55] <Daishi> thanks for your help
[10:55] <azureal> hopefully it'll work
[10:55] <Daishi> i hopes so
[10:56] <justin_> Why does my UPTIME, say "3 users", when I am the only one who uses this PC, and I only have one user account besides root?
[10:56] <ardesh> farous: it _is_ recognized... im on this machine now
[10:56] <apallo19> is there a batch file equivalent in ubuntu?
[10:56] <quiet> justin_, ssh?  webserver?
[10:56] <ardesh> farous: but i need the /dev/eth0 for configuration of gpilotd
[10:56] <justin_> I do not think so
[10:56] <erUSUL> quiet: the web interface in ubuntu is disabled as in debian. zless /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian.gz < inst. to enable it if you must
[10:56] <justin_> quiet: How can I check SSH status
[10:56] <justin_> Or find out the users on now
[10:57] <quiet> finger
[10:57] <j0425g> uhmm
[10:57] <farous> ardesh: as i said again it have another name in /dev/ that is why i said eth0 is just an alias i do not know the true name though
[10:57] <erUSUL> justin_: x sever and two shells... all the same user, you
[10:57] <farous> ardesh: thought you were talking from another pc :)
[10:57] <ardesh> farous: ok...  ;)
[10:58] <ardesh> farous: do you think it may /dev/net/tun
[10:58] <justin_> erUSUL: How do you know I have two shells?
[10:58] <erUSUL> justin_: check it with the 'who' command. becouse if you have 3 users you have the xserver and two shells
[10:58] <grogoreo> does an ubuntu server install only install ubuntu-base, ubuntu-standard and ubuntu-minimal?
[10:58] <txx2> My hard drive is NTFS, and it has a lot of important files on it, I need to be able to write on it but I am unable to as I dont have ntfs write support (and the ntfs plugin is buggy at the current stage). is there a way I am able to convert the file system?
[10:59] <erUSUL> justin_: 2 + 1 = 3 ;)
[10:59] <Brujah> hy everybody
[10:59] <farous> ardesh: do not know
[10:59] <markrian> ardesh, what exactly are you trying to do with gpilotd
[10:59] <markrian> ?
[11:00] <Brujah> my kubuntu installation crashed when it tried to install grub. How can I manually install lilo now?
[11:00] <rsk> !lilo
[11:00] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[11:00] <rsk> doh no guide :[
[11:00] <TheGateKeeper> !grub > Brujah
[11:01] <Brujah> ... reading
[11:02] <kdotsky> to all: i used ndiswrapper to install my netgear wg111v2 wireless usb adapter... it shows up in iwconfig and ipconfig, but i cannot change the essid or do a iwlist scan, thoughts?
[11:02] <crazy_penguin> Good night and sleep well everyone! :)
[11:02] <Xyc0> can someone link me how to change default file associations?
[11:02] <justin_> Last thing, does Linux have a "defrag" type utility?
[11:02] <ardesh> markrian: syncing my palm per wlan with evolution
[11:03] <ardesh> markrian: atm i have to type in the /dev/eth0 path for syncing manually everytime when syncing
[11:03] <erUSUL> justin_: no and usually does not need one
[11:03] <Xyc0> How do I change default file associations?
[11:04] <ardesh> markrian: because he resets the changes after closing the configuration dialog or conf-file to /dev/palm because there is no /dev/eth0
[11:04] <erUSUL> Xyc0: right click on the file > Properties> tab open with
[11:04] <ag0ny> is there something (network preferably) that can make my gnome reallllyyyy slow...like when i start the calculator i can see the window pop up without the actual gui elements...then nothing happens for 20-30 seconds and the buttons appear. anyone has a solution to that?
[11:05] <Xyc0> erUSUL: that works every time I do that, but I want it to open with the same program always
[11:05] <MANAGER_PRO> hello people i have a question ... is #  Ubuntu
[11:05] <raf> lol
[11:05] <MANAGER_PRO> is it free ?
[11:05] <raf> yes
[11:05] <harisund> Does anybody know if Ubuntu enables SMP on k7 kernels? How can I found out?
[11:05] <raf> its free
[11:05] <markrian> ardesh, I don't understand what /dev/eth0 is. But let me understand: you want to sync your palm to evolution using your computer's wireless connection?
[11:05] <Xyc0> MANAGER_PRO: it is freedom!
[11:05] <raf> lol Xyc0
[11:06] <MANAGER_PRO> is it simple to install ?
[11:06] <Xyc0> it is :P
[11:06] <ardesh> markrian: aye
[11:06] <Xyc0> MANAGER_PRO: fairly
[11:06] <kdotsky> so am i asking in the wrong place or are ppl too busy or what
[11:06] <raf> my friend cant get her wireless broadband pcmcia card to work on ubuntu
[11:06] <ardesh> markrian: its works already... but it resets my changes everytime
[11:06] <erUSUL> harisund: cat /proc/cpuinfo . If you see two cpus great if not :(
[11:06] <MANAGER_PRO> i am using SONY H2\digital camera very often .. could i use its usb2 capability?
[11:07] <TheGateKeeper> MANAGER_PRO: Windows to Ubuntu Transition Guide:http://www.pcmech.com/show/os/917/
[11:07] <harisund> erUSUL The point is, I have SMP enabled in the kernel, but I have only one processor.
[11:07] <harisund> erUSUL Which means SMP should not be enabled.
[11:07] <jeff303> is doing a dpkg-reconfigure the same as "mark for reinstall" in synaptic?
[11:08] <markrian> ardesh, apologies for being slow, but what changes are you making, and to what files/in what application?
[11:08] <raf> i found a fix for the problem of webpages bitching about not having flash 9
[11:08] <Xyc0> How do I connect wireless to a non-encrypted AP?
[11:08] <sycron> raf: oh?
[11:08] <grmbl> hello
[11:08] <trappist> raf: yeah I found that too (flash 9 isn't out yet, they bitch about 8)
[11:09] <bubinou__> hello
[11:09] <Xyc0> trappist: sure it is
[11:09] <quad3d> in top NICE -10 is bad huh?
[11:09] <sycron> raf: can you view youtube.com videos? That's the trouble I've been having.
[11:09] <Xyc0> trappist: Adobe Flash 9
[11:09] <erUSUL> harisund: ubuntu (dapper, in breezy they still builded smp kernels) uses a special patch that let the kernel determine at runtime if it uses smp or not based on the cpu it is running on.
[11:10] <raf> u can do this
[11:10] <GNAM> when adobe flash 9?
[11:10] <raf>  sudo gedit ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat
[11:10] <raf> and change the way it identifies itself from 7.0 to 9.0
[11:10] <jrib> raf: why would you sudo that file?
[11:10] <raf> it wont open
[11:10] <raf> without sudo
[11:10] <raf> lol
[11:10] <azureal> is there a cooler program than figlet?
[11:10] <raf> youre edditing it anywho
[11:10] <azureal> (of the same type)
[11:11] <jrib> raf: yes, but then it becomes root owned
[11:11] <ardesh> markrian: i talk to you in private, is it ok?
[11:11] <raf> edit it like this
[11:11] <kdotsky> so is this the place i go after trying everything i've found on google or before
[11:11] <raf> Shockwave Flash 9.0 r63:$
[11:11] <raf> Shockwave Flash:$
[11:11] <ardesh> markrian: its easier to read there
[11:11] <markrian> ardesh, go for it
[11:11] <erUSUL> quad3d: it is actually good better than +10 btw
[11:11] <sycron> "Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63:$" to 9.0?
[11:11] <richard> i try to upgrade ubuntu but occur an error with java-doc? what can i do to finish the upgrade
[11:11] <raf> dont upgrade java
[11:11] <raf> or delete it prior to update
[11:11] <raf> lol
[11:12] <apjonesy> whats the best equivalent of MSMoney on Ubuntu ?
[11:12] <sycron> I'm going to try this now then
[11:12] <grmbl> since changing to edgy i cant use my vpn (to a netscreen) anymore. no errors in logfile. any hints maybe? coworkers using debian testing have the same problems
[11:12] <markrian> apjonesy, there's gnucash
[11:12] <erUSUL> richard: do again 'sudo apt-get upgrade'
[11:12] <drbreen_> apjonesy: hrhr gnucash >:-|
[11:12] <jrib> sycron: http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/ the linux dev's blog on flash 9
[11:12] <dpupp> how do you remove directories from the desktop when you dont have permission? i have super user rigts, but im not sure how to issue the command.
[11:12] <drbreen_> !gnucash > drbreen
[11:12] <drbreen_> !gnucash > drbreen_
[11:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnucash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:12] <quad3d> oh, alright. i'll take your word for it
[11:13] <jrib> dpupp: sudo rm -r /path/to/directory    <-- be very careful with this!
[11:13] <erUSUL> dpupp: sudo rm -r /path/to/dir
[11:13] <richard> erUSUL: occur the same error
[11:13] <apjonesy> thanks gnu cash use double bookkeeping and wont import qif files easily
[11:13] <erUSUL> richard: 'sudo apt-get -f upgrade'
[11:13] <kdotsky> is there a wiki on how to post a question on here or something
[11:13] <azureal> ah raf, since we're discussing this, how would you get .wmv files to play (embedded) in ff?
[11:13] <trappist> perl -pi -e 's/^Shockwave Flash 7\.0/Shockwave Flash 9.0/' ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat
[11:13] <Brujah> I fear my case is not covered. I tried to manually reinstall grub but it hangs same way as in the installation
[11:13] <drbreen_> kdotsky: wtf ? a wiki how to post a prolem ? describe it the best way ya can.
[11:13] <dpupp> would this work: "sudo rm -r *Win" to delete any folders on the desktop starting as win ?
[11:13] <raf> u need a ff plug in
[11:13] <Brujah> There is nothing for lilo...
[11:13] <doughboy> Is it possible to connect to a printer that is hardwired to a desktop ubuntu system from a laptop that runs windows so that the printer can be shared between the two computers?
[11:13] <jrib> kdotsky: your question is fine, unfortunately the problem is no one here right now knows the answer probably
[11:13] <raf> i suggest mozzil-firefox
[11:14] <kdotsky> jrib: thanks
[11:14] <raf> mozila-mplayer
[11:14] <drbreen_> doughboy: i assume so
[11:14] <eternalswd> azureal: what media players do you have?
[11:14] <azureal> raf: i have mozplugger
[11:14] <RalleAb> hello again guys.. I was just trying to install my ATI graphics card but I sorta messed up xorg.conf and now I cant really access it because the GUI is gone.. I am booting form the linux CD atm. what do I do_
[11:14] <azureal> eternalswd, mplayer, xine
[11:14] <azureal> raf: ok, i'll try mozilla-mplayer
[11:15] <drbreen_> RalleAb: post your xorg.conf before and after the mess ?
[11:15] <dpupp> got it. thanks i had the asteric in the wrong place... it was Win*... not *Win
[11:15] <erUSUL> RalleAb: boot in recovery mode from hd and use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:15] <dpupp> thanks
[11:15] <drbreen_> RalleAb: but pastebot it. please
[11:15] <kdotsky> wait, eternalswd: aren't you the guy that posted the guide to setting up wg111v2 on ubuntuforums?
[11:15] <justin_> Is there anything to "netstat" in Linux console?
[11:15] <markedwards> hi, does anyone know what the situation is with dapper-backports?
[11:15] <erUSUL> justin_: netstat
[11:15] <eternalswd> kdotsky, yeah, that's me
[11:15] <justin_> ..I see
[11:15] <RalleAb> I cant access my harddrive from the cd.. so I will just reconfigure it
[11:15] <drbreen_> RalleAb: or just do that what erUSUL said. i assumed ya did it, though.
[11:15] <eternalswd> azureal: http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/
[11:16] <drbreen_> RalleAb: of course you can.
[11:16] <kdotsky> eternalswd: awesome, are u around here a lot, could i get a bit of help later or something
[11:16] <grmbl> RalleAb: also, if you used ati binary it made a backup of your old xorg.conf
[11:16] <drbreen_> RalleAb: just mount it via terminal or "disk manager"
[11:16] <Brujah> I created a lilo.conf and copied it to etc and i copied the lilo exe. but when i try to call it i get Fatal: raid_setup: stat("/dev/hda")
[11:16] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i'm almost at give-up point for my wg111
[11:16] <drbreen_> RalleAb: but i assume you cannot just chroot and reconfigure. reboot plz
[11:16] <RalleAb> I will make it work
[11:16] <RalleAb> how do I start in safe mode_
[11:16] <eternalswd> kdotsky, i'm not around a ton, what time do you think, or I could help you now
[11:17] <quintin_> Hello, I am setting up ubuntu for an elderly friend
[11:17] <markedwards> there are packages in dapper-backports, right?  or there should be?
[11:17] <grogoreo> how do I setup my Perl locale?
[11:17] <quintin_> his network connection is a D-link DWL-G122
[11:17] <azureal> eternalswd, " Applications other than mozilla are not supported" ... ff?
[11:17] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i tried your guide, among others... it shows up in iwconfig and ipconfig but i cannot scan or change the essid
[11:17] <quintin_> Can someone advise me as to how to setup wireless, etc?
[11:17] <grmbl> anything about my racoon question?
[11:17] <dpupp> ok. got a problem... in dapper, when it type: "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper"... everything locked up.
[11:18] <dpupp> except for the mouse.
[11:18] <eternalswd> azureal: that includes ff ie Mozilla Suite, FF, Seamonkey
[11:18] <azureal> eternalswd, nod, disregard
[11:18] <eternalswd> kdotsky, let me think on that a little
[11:19] <kdotsky> eternalswd: thx, take yur time
[11:19] <kdotsky> brb
[11:19] <riaal> how dose screendump work? why do I need to have root access to runn it?
[11:20] <Brujah> I installed the lilo documentation. Where can I find it?
[11:20] <richard> erUSUL: the konsole show error when process liblog4j1.2-java-doc
[11:20] <RalleAb> how do i make the xorg.conf recreate itself as it does when instaling linux_
[11:20] <kdotsky> eternalswd: btw we're talking fresh install of dapper (minus the fiddling i've done trying to get the adapter to work)
[11:21] <RalleAb> or how do i run that guide at start_
[11:21] <mrbrocoli> is there a text-mode only runlevel in ubuntu?
[11:22] <azureal> eternalswd, ah, it was a conflict w/ mozplugger..
[11:22] <RalleAb> should I really reinstall ubuntu in order to make it configure xorg.conf itself_
[11:22] <dpupp> ok, im still seeing no wireless extensions  in iwconfig after installing ndiswrapper and doing modprobe on it. am i missing a step? ... .
[11:22] <synaptiv> hm
[11:22] <azureal> eternalswd, btw, what's the difference between /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox and /usr/lib/firefox
[11:22] <harisund> dpupp are you sure thye are the right drivers?
[11:22] <mc|amb> hi, quick question here... where does Mplayer skin folder is?? or where do I put the skins so mplayer can read them??
[11:22] <riaal> how do i take a print screen??
[11:22] <harisund> dpupp did you do ndiswrapper -l?
[11:22] <synaptiv> anyone here have a nvidia geforce fx 5200 card installed on their ubuntu system??
[11:22] <TheGateKeeper> !fixRes > RalleAb
[11:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fixRes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:22] <eternalswd> azureal: i'm not sure

[11:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about FixRes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:23] <dpupp> harisund, hardware present, driver present. i have a dwl-g510 marvel. using the mrv8k51....
[11:23] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, yea same model
[11:23] <scrooloose> hi
[11:23] <Breg> anyone here know how to update the bios of a dell 6400 laptop?
[11:23] <synaptiv> what res can your kde or gnome get too?
[11:23] <RalleAb> if I delete xorg.conf, will it 'respawn' ?
[11:24] <synaptiv> i can only get 1024x768
[11:24] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, my screen's max is 1280x1024, so i haven't tried anything higher
[11:24] <harisund> dpupp that's surprising. The last time I used ndiswrapper I just did ndiswrapper -i drivername.inf, ndiswrapper -m and modprobe ndiswrapper
[11:24] <scrooloose> i am new to ubuntu and im trying to figure out apt-get... from the cmdline how can u search for a package?
[11:24] <synaptiv> i cant even get that high for some reason
[11:24] <scrooloose> (to install)
[11:24] <mrbrocoli> is there a runlevel without gui?
[11:24] <sycron> Breg: I'm on the same laptop
[11:24] <synaptiv> and i installed the latest drivers with no problem
[11:24] <synaptiv> installed the actual nvidia drivers
[11:24] <sycron> You shouldn't have any problem just downloading the BiOS update from the dell site and booting from a disk
[11:25] <yoshiznit123> are the drivers working (glxgears etc)?
[11:25] <dpupp> is a reboot required?
[11:25] <riaal> I have a really annoying problem, every error messege and warning frome the program Azureus is impossible to close! There is a hide button on them but it doesent work =( Relly need help

[11:25] <eternalswd> kdotsky, can you post the output of iwconfig to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[11:25] <richard> erUSUL: the konsole show error when process liblog4j1.2-java-doc
[11:25] <looktj> its says it cant find package
[11:25] <synaptiv> i belive so, i get the nvidia splash sreen before the os boots also
[11:25] <yoshiznit123> riaal, it's a known bug
[11:25] <jrib> looktj: have you enabled the multiverse repository?
[11:25] <DarkRain> Ive got an issue with Ubuntu install/live boot not properly detecting my video card. I have an ATI radeon x800gto fireblade edition. and its picking it up as an x850. Which of course, crashes xwindows. I think this is because the paticular card I have, uses the x850 core (R480) does anyone know of a fix for this problem... keep in mind I am pretty new to the linux system.
[11:26] <riaal> yoshiznit123: really??
[11:26] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, and the resolutions you want are listed under xorg.conf too?
[11:26] <yoshiznit123> riaal, yea, a bunch of linux users were pissed about that. i forgot where i read it tho...
[11:26] <synaptiv> no actaully i couldnt find it
[11:26] <looktj> i dont think...jrib

[11:27] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[11:27] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, in the file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf', see down in the "screen" section if the resolutions you want are listed
[11:27] <yoshiznit123> riaal, the only way i've gotten around it is dragging the bar to another side :-)

[11:28] <riaal> yoshiznit123: I can't even move it
[11:28] <evan__> hi
[11:28] <TheGateKeeper> RalleAb: mount -t <filesystem> /dev/hda1 /mount/point
[11:28] <eternalswd> kdotsky could you also post the output of lsmod | grep usbcore
[11:28] <yoshiznit123> riaal: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/azureus/+bug/41813, apparently there's a fix
[11:28] <REPOLHO> Hi, anyone here use some firebird/ib aplication on ubuntu?
[11:29] <eternalswd> does anyone know a channel for discussing bash scripting?
[11:29] <markrian> REPOLHO, what's your question?
[11:29] <riaal> thanks yoshiznit123, same problem..
[11:29] <REPOLHO> markrian: the aplications dont found libgds.o...
[11:29] <RalleAb> TheGateKeeper what should I replace <filesystem> with_
[11:29] <quintin_> still need help with  my wirelesss....
[11:29] <REPOLHO> markrian: but the damned thing is there rss

[11:30] <Breg> sycron: ever updated the bios ?
[11:30] <kdotsky> eternalswd: sure just have to move the text via usb key

[11:30] <REPOLHO> damned: opz.. sorry dude :)
[11:31] <RalleAb> it says that /mount/point doesnt exist
[11:31] <trappist> heh
[11:31] <dpupp> this is confusing.... im looking at the iwconfig, and its saying my wifi is a broadcom, when im certain its a marvel.... but thats not all... eth1 is claiming to be wireless... boradcom, when the boardcom is actually for cat5 *PUZZLED*

[11:33] <Synaptiv> ah better
[11:33] <raf> any of you guys make a dvd iso image out of cd isos?
[11:33] <quintin_> someoen please to be helping me with wireless
[11:33] <trappist> raf: an iso is an iso
[11:33] <Synaptiv> yoshiznit123: ok got ubuntu up
[11:33] <yoshiznit123> hey everybody, i was wondering if anybody has gotten a toshiba fingerprint reader to work... i found instructions for thinkpads but it can't recognize the hardware :-)
[11:33] <dasos> my sound keeps dropping out sometimes =( i think it might be a flash issue, anyone have experience with this?
[11:33] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, is the resolution working?
[11:33] <raf> well i have 3 cd iso images i want to make a single dvd image out of
[11:33] <RalleAb> this didnt work: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /dada
[11:33] <Synaptiv> only 1024 and lower
[11:34] <Synaptiv> going to check out conf right now
[11:34] <sycron> raf: just literally copy the files into one dvd iso
[11:34] <RalleAb> it cant find /dada but it is going to make dada when mounting...
[11:34] <raf> will it be bootable?
[11:34] <synic> RalleAb: the mount point has to exist first.
[11:34] <synic> RalleAb: so mkdir /dada first
[11:34] <Synaptiv> heh synik is my other nick :P
[11:35] <synic> Synaptiv: :P  I've been synic forever, though!
[11:35] <TheGateKeeper> RalleAb: you have to create an empty directory somewhere on your present file system and use that
[11:35] <raf> i guess i can test it on vmware first
[11:35] <sycron> raf: Not sure about that, but I don't see why not, unless there's some very specific file structure information relavent to the program
[11:35] <raf> see if it botts
[11:35] <raf> boots

[11:36] <haasteem> hi, i know that i can set an enivronment variable by giving the export command, w.g. export JAVE_HOME=/path/to/... is there a way i can do this permanently? because if i do it in a terminal then this is only valid for running rpograms from that terminal...
[11:36] <erUSUL> TheGateKeeper: the dir does not have to be empty to be used as mountpoint
[11:36] <Synaptiv> ive been synik since about 1991
[11:36] <raf> normally i wouldnt worry about making dvds...but this has to be bootable lol
[11:36] <synic> haasteem: edit ~/.bashrc
[11:36] <Synaptiv> used to be my stage name
[11:36] <dpupp> when i do lspci i see a broadcom wireless device... i have no wireless cards in the machine at this moment... only a lan card.
[11:36] <erUSUL> haasteem: put it in your .bashrc or .bash_profile
[11:36] <synic> dpupp: you sure :)
[11:36] <stray77> heheh
[11:36] <Synaptiv> then used it when i first got on irc in 93
[11:36] <haasteem> synic: ok
[11:36] <Puddy_> hi guys :) im new to ubuntu and mainly to linux to.. my monitor supports 100hz refreshrate, but in the monitor-settings dialog of ubuntu its set to 60 Hz and i cant change it.. is there a way how i can? =o
[11:36] <haasteem> erUSUL: ok
[11:37] <TheGateKeeper> erUSUL: think it generally helps :-)
[11:37] <erUSUL> dpupp: if it show up in the lspci you *do* have the device
[11:37] <haasteem> synic:do i need to reboot for the changes totake effect?
[11:37] <dpupp> synic, im sure.... i dont have any cards at all that are wifi... i pulled it out... its an abitnf7  mobo
[11:37] <dpupp> something is f'ed up.
[11:37] <synic> haasteem: nope.
[11:38] <synic> haasteem: it will be active the next time you open a terminal, or log in
[11:38] <quintin_> Help wireless no work :)
[11:38] <Synaptiv> oh yoshiznit123 would i need to set it under screen as my actual monitor or can i keep it default
[11:38] <synic> haasteem: you generally don't need to reboot linux
[11:38] <erUSUL> !wifi
[11:38] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:38] <eternalswd> kdotsky, try iwconfig wlan0 essid "Your essid"
[11:38] <Xyc0> I am trying to connect to an non-encrypted AP and failing, does Ubuntu require that everything be WEP encrypted?
[11:38] <dpupp> how do i reconfigure all networking options in ubuntu dapper back to default? ?
[11:38] <haasteem> synic: ok, cool... right, should have expected that :)
[11:38] <eternalswd> kdotsky, you might need to sudo it
[11:38] <grogoreo> when upgrading dapper I have an error with the file: lvm2_2.02.02-1ubuntu1_i386.deb is there anyway to tell apt not to install it?
[11:39] <yoshiznit123> synaptiv, i don't think you have to change anything, just add the resolutions you want
[11:39] <kdotsky> eternalswd: that's exactly what i've tried... just tried again and nothing
[11:39] <haasteem> synic: these files are in /etc?
[11:39] <Synaptiv> ah ok, i remeber bsd being really picky about monitors
[11:39] <eternalswd> kdotsky, i'll be back in a few minutes
[11:39] <kdotsky> eternalswd: should the blue light be on at this point? because it's not
[11:39] <kdotsky> eternalswd: thx
[11:40] <dpupp> how do i get more details off a device? after lspci ? ...
[11:40] <synic> haasteem: .bashrc is in ~
[11:40] <quintin_> ubotu: THANK YOU I will read that.  however if I were a newbie I probably wouldn't like doc links, heh
[11:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about THANK YOU I will read that.  however if I were a newbie I probably wouldn't like doc links, heh - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:40] <Synaptiv> add the 1280x1024 in all the places i see the other rsolutons?
[11:40] <harisund> Can someone explain the difference between fakeroot and sudo? Why is it that most Ubuntu kernel compilation tutorials suggest using fakeroot?
[11:40] <Xyc0> :\
[11:40] <haasteem> synic: it seems i don't have it... is that possible?
[11:41] <shaantanu> !ps2
[11:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ps2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:41] <linuxd00d> #linuxd00d
[11:41] <synic> haasteem: if you don't have it, just create a new one
[11:41] <shaantanu> Want PS2 emulators for ubuntu
[11:41] <shaantanu> someone help
[11:41] <haasteem> synic: alright
[11:41] <raf> is mepis similar to ubuntu ?
[11:41] <harisund> !kernel
[11:41] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:41] <yoshiznit123> harisund, fakeroot doesn't actually give you root privileges, it just fakes it, so it's more secure
[11:42] <harisund> yoshiznit123 so what happens if I follow the kernel compilation using sudo? Or whathappens if I run apt-get upgrade using fakeroot?
[11:42] <linuxd00d> raf #mepis
[11:42] <raf> lol
[11:42] <raf> ughh
[11:42] <DarkRain> mepis is based on ubuntu I think...
[11:43] <haasteem> synic: there i just declare the things i want to? so, line 1: export JAVA_HOME=/path/to; line 2: export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/path/to?
[11:43] <yoshiznit123> if for example the kernel makefile had 'rm -rf /', it would be allowed to destroy everything on your computer if you were using sudo, not so with fakeroot
[11:43] <yoshiznit123> and you shouldn't be compiling with root either, just installing
[11:43] <synic> haasteem: yup
[11:43] <harisund> yoshiznit123 most interesting. Technically though, I can install the kernel using sudo -i in the end, right?
[11:43] <yoshiznit123> but for creating deb packages, you can use fakeroot because your not actually installing anything
[11:43] <linuxd00d> darn mepis copying ubuntu worse than centos copying redhat
[11:43] <Breg> anyone know how to update the bios of a dell laptop (only got that .exe file)
[11:44] <Tear> how come ubuntu can't see my firewire external drive
[11:44] <yoshiznit123> right, to install you need root priviliges (i.e. sudo), but if you just want to build a package you can use fakeroot
[11:44] <MrRio> linuxd00d: darn ubuntu copying debian...
[11:44] <MrRio> linuxd00d, i don't get your point
[11:44] <harisund> yoshiznit123 I mean, I am quite comfortable with Linux and being root and all .. and I often use sudo -i to get a regular root shell. So I am guessing I will just go ahead with that. THanks :)
[11:44] <erUSUL> linuxd00d: this is *free* software you know
[11:44] <yoshiznit123> yup :-)
[11:45] <linuxd00d> mrrio: good point, but why is redhat enterprise costly then
[11:45] <dpupp> ok.... another networking problem... i tried a different card, usb wifi card. i tried configuring it , and when i hit activate, the whole system locked up.
[11:45] <azureal> eternalswd, this is so annoying!! mozplugger conflicts with mplayer-plugin
[11:45] <galorin> linuxd00d, support
[11:45] <MrRio> linuxd00d: someone at the end of the phone
[11:45] <cdubya> linuxd00d, what galorin said
[11:45] <MrRio> linuxd00d, their support services are great
[11:45] <dpupp> how can i configure my networking options in ubuntu back to default? do i have to do fresh install?
[11:45] <linuxd00d> mrrios: yeah i suppose
[11:46] <Tear> the external drive is ntfs would ubuntu see the mp3 files on it?
[11:46] <erUSUL> dpupp: i do not know what you mean by "back to default". erase all stanzas in /etc/network/interfaces but the 'lo' one ??
[11:47] <dpupp> ok i'll try that.
[11:47] <erUSUL> Tear: yes
[11:47] <Tear> hmmm
[11:47] <vinnybinny> can anyone help me get my officejet 5510 to print in linux?
[11:47] <txx2> Howndo I convert my external hard drive with NTFS on without damaging the files on it?
[11:47] <raf> u have to format
[11:47] <raf> then change
[11:48] <raf> lol
[11:48] <trappist> txx2: you move the files off first
[11:48] <raf> move the files somewhere for the time beign
[11:48] <txx2> I can't format because it's a big hard drive
[11:48] <raf> how big
[11:48] <raf> and how much files?
[11:48] <galorin> vinnybinny, multifunction printer?
[11:48] <erUSUL> !enter > raf
[11:48] <Tear> why would allmy wallpapers and pictures get deleted
[11:48] <txx2> 1tb. Nah, joking, it's 80gb.. I bought an 80gb harddrive the other day but i've not been able to use it because the connection is different, it's a SATA, not IDE.
[11:48] <TheGateKeeper> txx2: room to shrink the ntfs partition?
[11:48] <trappist> Tear: did you keep em in /tmp?
[11:49] <Tear> yes
[11:49] <trappist> that's why
[11:49] <trappist> man I'm awesome
[11:49] <Tear> deletes after a while
[11:49] <Tear> really?
[11:49] <erUSUL> Tear: after reboot
[11:49] <trappist> Tear: tmp as in TeMPorary
[11:49] <Tear> I didn't know that
[11:49] <Tear> ok
[11:49] <TheGateKeeper> trappist: :-)
[11:50] <dpupp> so its ok to delete everything within /etc/network/ *.* ?
[11:50] <trappist> dpupp: woah, why would you do that
[11:50] <Spec> dpupp: no, probably not
[11:50] <dpupp> im trying to reset my system to default when it comes to network info. im having all kinds of issues and im a few steps short of a fresh install.
[11:51] <willys_fueguin1> someone here is an channel op???
[11:51] <eternalswd> azureal, if you have mozplugger, why do you need something else?
[11:51] <erUSUL> dpupp: i did not say all files i say all conf *stanzas* in the file interfaces but the one configuring the 'lo' interface
[11:51] <dpupp> lspci is reporting a device to be wifi when its not... and wifi is nowhere on the map, and when i try to use a usb wifi device, my whole system locks up.
[11:51] <Soccrmastr> is there a program for XFCE on Xubuntu that can open rar files, and has a GUI?
[11:51] <dpupp> whats a conf *swtanza*?
[11:52] <erUSUL> willys_fueguin1: why you want to contact an op?
[11:52] <eternalswd> kdotsky, is there any errors from iwconfig when you try to set the essid?
[11:52] <trappist> dpupp: if you mean stanza, it's basically a paragraph
[11:52] <sycron> How can I view current running processes (ala ctrlaltdel lol)
[11:52] <ubuntu_> Ana Paula on'line
[11:52] <dpupp> ah. rgr. thanks
[11:52] <kdotsky> eternalswd: no
[11:52] <synic> Soccrmastr: sycron ps fax
[11:52] <kdotsky> eternalswd: no response
[11:52] <synic> er...
[11:52] <synic> sycron: ps fax
[11:52] <trappist> dpupp: like in an apache conf it would start with something like <Directory> and end with something like </Directory>
[11:52] <KenSentMe> sycron: go to System Administration Processes
[11:52] <bestial> Hello! I reinstalled my Ubuntu yesterday, but my desktop-icons are REALLY SMALL and don't have the file-name under it, anyone knows what's wrong?
[11:52] <Soccrmastr> wait, was that for me?
[11:52] <dpupp> ok, its blank, minus the lo inet loopback. it was already clear.
[11:52] <eternalswd> kdotsky: have you tried using it on a windows box?
[11:52] <dpupp> hmmm
[11:53] <synic> sycron: or you can go to system->admin->system monitor
[11:53] <haasteem> synic: it looks like i first need to do "source .bashprofile" for the changes to take effect, and even then, i need to do that every time i open a terminal...
[11:53] <vinnybinny> galorin: yes multifunction, the printer is connected to a XP box and networked via samba...it prints fine in linux when i'm using a guest os (XP) on  vmware player (inside linux), but when i try from just linux the printer just locks up... so im guessing it's the linux printer driver?
[11:53] <sycron> ps fax is the terminal command though?
[11:53] <kdotsky> eternalswd: no, should i give it a shot on my laptop?
[11:53] <synic> haasteem: use .bashrc instead of .bashprofile
[11:53] <_ceed_> Hi, I am new to Ubuntu, but installed it without probs on my HP laptop. Everything works except for the fact that I am not able to set the screen res to 1280x768. It is stuck at 1024x768. Anyone know what I can do to change it?
[11:53] <linuxd00d> bestial: have you tried to resize the icons or stretch them
[11:53] <synic> sycron: yeah, it makes a nice process tree
[11:53] <mikeubuntu> looking for a fast way to copy all my internet shortcuts from xp to ubunto over my network
[11:53] <haasteem> synic: ok, let me try
[11:53] <KenSentMe> !fixres > _ceed_
[11:53] <synic> sycron: shows the process parent process and stuff.
[11:54] <dpupp> is breezy being dropped now that dapper is out? ... or is there a doc that explains breezy vs dapper? ...
[11:54] <KenSentMe> _ceed_: check what ubotu sent you
[11:54] <eternalswd> kdotsky, yeah, I'd try it on windows just to test to see if it might be a wireless access problem rather than a hardware problem
[11:54] <mikeubuntu> straight copy yields a .url file
[11:54] <_ceed_> okay Ken
[11:54] <CBMz> Hello.
[11:54] <bestial> linuxd00d, yeah, no file-name then either, and it only makes the icon I strecht bigger.
[11:54] <galorin> vinnybinny, so the printer is hooked up to another machine, and you're using samba to connect to it..  Is the rest of samba working?
[11:54] <REPOLHO> Hi, anyone here use some firebird/ib aplication on ubuntu?
[11:54] <CBMz> Is it possible to install KDE on Ubuntu (not Kubuntu)
[11:54] <CBMz> ?
[11:54] <kdotsky> eternalswd: well it's not wireless access, i'm using the wireless right now on my laptop
[11:54] <vinnybinny> yeah the rest of samba is working like a gem
[11:54] <synic> CBMz: apt-get isntall kubuntu-desktop
[11:54] <haasteem> synic: cool, now it works... thanks
[11:54] <kdotsky> eternalswd: do you mean if it's a problem with the physical adapter?
[11:54] <_ceed_> Thanks Ken. I will go do some homework.. :)
[11:55] <piclez> hi, how can I findout if there is something running in port 2000 please?
[11:55] <linuxd00d> bestial: have you also tried to change the destop resolution
[11:55] <CBMz> Thanks, Synic. and then how do i run it? (make kde run instead of gnome)
[11:55] <synic> CBMz: you should be able to choose it in gdm
[11:55] <eternalswd> kdotsky: what kind of security settings do you have on the wireless connection?
[11:55] <kdotsky> eternalswd: none
[11:55] <galorin> vinnybinny, I can't find reference to a driver for the 5510, just the 5500, which may be part of your problem, i.e. the driver isn't fully mature for your HW
[11:55] <kdotsky> eternalswd: I can't do a iwlist scan either
[11:55] <enyc> piclez: what do you mean.... listening on TCP port 5000? or UDP port 5000?  or something connecting from your machtine to port 5000 somewhere else?
[11:55] <vinnybinny> it works flawlessly when im running xp in vmware which ubuntu is the host
[11:55] <KenSentMe> dpupp: Breezy is still supported but dapper has the latest software versions
[11:56] <quintin_> oh my fucking god
[11:56] <AquaF0x> I need help guys.
[11:56] <bestial> linuxd00d, no, that one I haven't tried, but, I want 1280x1024 which now is the resolution.
[11:56] <quintin_> "make" is not installed?????
[11:56] <AquaF0x> Please help.
[11:56] <vinnybinny> galorin: yeah i can't find it either but when searching the forums i found other people that got the same model working and i followed all their instructions
[11:56] <jrib> !ask
[11:56] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:56] <dpupp> k
[11:56] <synic> quintin_: apt-get install build-essential
[11:56] <mikeubuntu> I have hundreds of internet shortcuts (favorites) I need to move to ubuntu
[11:56] <synic> quintin_: make isn't usually required.
[11:56] <AquaF0x> What is the default root password?
[11:56] <quintin_> synic: I have NO NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
[11:56] <vinnybinny> galorin: it seems they just use the 5500series driver
[11:56] <jrib> !root > AquaF0x
[11:57] <AquaF0x> I didn't decide at the start to specify root.
[11:57] <vinnybinny> galorin: but i am having no luck
[11:57] <synic> quintin_: WHY DON'T YOU YELL ABOUT IT!!
[11:57] <quintin_> WHY DON'T IT
[11:57] <enyc> quintin_: ise "apt-get build-dep {package}" it get the build-requirments for any package
[11:57] <quintin_> I
[11:57] <AquaF0x> I am running Ubuntu..
[11:57] <eternalswd> kdotsky, does iwlist scan show any feedback or does it freeze?
[11:57] <jrib> AquaF0x: read the private message from ubotu and all will be clear :)  (ubuntu uses sudo)
[11:57] <enyc> AquaF0x: there isnt one
[11:57] <quintin_> enyc: machine is not on internet
[11:57] <kdotsky> eternalswd: and I don't have any wired access to the computer, so i haven't ran any updates or anything
[11:57] <linuxd00d> bestial, there isnt much noticable difference with 1280x1024 to the one lower down
[11:57] <AquaF0x> Okay.
[11:57] <enyc> quintin_: heh... plug in a netmork cable?
[11:57] <kdotsky> eternalswd: it just says No scan results for wlan0 (doesn't freeze)
[11:57] <AquaF0x> Now how to unpack files using Sudo?
[11:57] <AquaF0x> HELP!
[11:57] <piclez> enyc: thanks! nhmm I'm trying to install ofbiz and run tnameserv (Cordoba I think) on port 2000 but something must be using this port because it can't bind to port 2000, so I think is TCP listening
[11:57] <quintin_> enyc: not an option
[11:58] <bestial> linuxboy, tried it now, but it didn't work.
[11:58] <jrib> quintin_: build-essential is on the cd
[11:58] <galorin> vinnybinny, ok.  I've never dealt with HP printers and Linux before.  first google result I get points to linuxquestions.org.  Seen that page?
[11:58] <sycron> Is there a less busy channel?
[11:58] <_ceed_> laters, have a x server to kill :)
[11:58] <vinnybinny> galorin: yeah i've seen it
[11:58] <enyc> piclez: right... do 'netstat -ltn' to see what is listening on TCP ports on your machine
[11:58] <quintin_> jrib: thank goodness
[11:58] <eXistenZ> what's the difference between less and more?
[11:58] <AquaF0x> HELP!
[11:58] <kdotsky> less is more
[11:58] <piclez> enyc: thank you a lot :)
[11:58] <AquaF0x> How to sudo in unpacking?
[11:58] <AquaF0x> Tarball?
[11:58] <eXistenZ> !less
[11:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about less - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:58] <quintin_> jrib: if I put the CD in, will the package management software use that as a source automatically?
[11:58] <eXistenZ> !more
[11:58] <IcemanV9> what is the difference between hda and sda?? hda == ata hd and sda == sata hd .. correct?
[11:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about more - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:58] <synic> AquaF0x: you don't need to use sudo to unpack a tarball.
[11:59] <[b] urk> eXistenZ, try
[11:59] <AquaF0x> NO!
[11:59] <synic> IcemanV9: sda might be scsi as well
[11:59] <enyc> piclez: aghually...
[11:59] <eternalswd> kdotsky, what happens when you bring up Networking under System -> Administration -> Networking
[11:59] <AquaF0x> But the directory is for root!
[11:59] <hopeseekr> hello.  I am *trying* for *hours* now to figure out what the unstable repository url is.  Hlep????
[11:59] <piclez> enyc, nothing on that port, so must be something else :/ tks :)
[11:59] <jrib> quintin_: I think so, it worked for me.  But if it doesn't do it for you just go to system > administration > synaptic, edit > add cdrom
[11:59] <enyc> piclez: do 'netstat -ltnp' to see what program listening on what port ;--)
[11:59] <synic> AquaF0x: what are you trying to unpack?
[11:59] <AquaF0x> Firefox update.
[11:59] <IcemanV9> synic: that's right. that, too. scsi
[11:59] <galorin> vinnybinny, any luck with that?  I suspect you can leave out the compiling software bits, but the rest looks like it should work.
[11:59] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i'm in kubuntu, but when i go to network settings i can see wlan0 as an enabled wireless network device
[11:59] <quintin_> package manager start when I first put cd in
[11:59] <quintin_> very nice
[11:59] <AquaF0x> Synic?
[11:59] <hopeseekr> hello.  I am *trying* for *hours* now to figure out what the unstable repository url is.  Hlep????
[11:59] <erUSUL> eXistenZ: more is the tradicional ancient unix pager less is _more (hint hint)_ capable
[11:59] <synic> AquaF0x: are you on dapper?
[12:00] <quintin_> yea pretty compelling so far, but needs more wireless drivers
[12:00] <AquaF0x> What is dapper?
[12:00] <jrib> !dapper
[12:00] <ubotu> dapper is the 4th and latest release of Ubuntu. Version 6.06 LTS, codename "Dapper Drake"
[12:00] <enyc> piclez: pou may need  'sudo netstat -ltnp'.... to see all processes etc.
[12:00] <piclez> enyc: there is none program name
[12:00] <kdotsky> eternalswd: in fact I have my essid set in the configuration in the gui too
[12:00] <piclez> enyc: yep! nice :)
[12:00] <AquaF0x> No.
[12:00] <piclez> that's cool
[12:00] <AquaF0x> I'm not on dapper?
[12:00] <eternalswd> kdotsky, and it remembers it there?
[12:00] <AquaF0x> Where can I get dapper.
[12:00] <TheGateKeeper> AquaF0x: what does this return: cat /etc/issue
[12:00] <AquaF0x> I am on Hoary Hedgehog.
[12:00] <enyc> piclez: I didnt know there was a -p until I just looked ;-)
[12:00] <synic> AquaF0x: you can upgrade to dapper
[12:00] <jrib> hopeseekr: there is no real "unstable".  edgy is the development version though (which means a lot of things are broken or can randomly break), is that what you are interested in?
[12:00] <kdotsky> eternalswd: yeah i just checked it and it's set from before
[12:01] <vinnybinny> galorin: no, no luck. after some searching i found that the hplip driver does not support my model of printer via network. but there was some posts in the ubuntu forums saying otherwise...i guess im going to have to trust the people making the driver support ;)
[12:01] <enyc> piclez: learn somethi new every day ;-
[12:01] <enyc> ;-)
