[12:01] <jrib> !upgrade > AquaF0x
[12:01] <AquaF0x> Okay.
[12:01] <AquaF0x> Then what?
[12:01] <AquaF0x> THen everything will be okay?
[12:01] <synic> AquaF0x: dapper has a pretty recent firefox
[12:01] <looktj> thanks for your help, i have enabled Multiverse
[12:01] <eternalswd> kdotsky: try removing it from there and setting with iwconfig
[12:01] <synic> 1.5.0.5
[12:01] <piclez> enyc: true haha.. so many things to learn man! aaahh haha :)
[12:01] <Soccrmastr> any program that opens RAR files with a GUI on F\XFCE? Because Im using Xubuntu.
[12:01] <cry0gen> any of you use fglrx in ubuntu have framerate issues?
[12:01] <AquaF0x> synic, where can I get root access and do what I want?
[12:02] <AquaF0x> I want to do what I want.
[12:02] <AquaF0x> I hate being limited?
[12:02] <erUSUL> AquaF0x: use sudo
[12:02] <AquaF0x> Can I login root?
[12:02] <AquaF0x> Somehow?
[12:02] <eternalswd> kdotsky, also, what kind of router do you have?
[12:02] <synic> AquaF0x: by using sudo.  You can do anything with sudo.
[12:02] <erUSUL> !root > AquaF0x
[12:02] <AquaF0x> Yes but I can't unpack SUDO.
[12:02] <erUSUL> !enter > AquaF0x
[12:02] <kdotsky> eternalswd: some sort of dell :)
[12:02] <Soccrmastr> !root
[12:02] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:02] <AquaF0x> synic.
[12:02] <jrib> AquaF0x: 'sudo -i' will give you a root prompt, I really recommend you upgrade to dapper instead of manually patching firefox though
[12:02] <AquaF0x> How to unpack in sudo mode.
[12:03] <synic> AquaF0x: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo  <-- read this like everyone has been telling you.
[12:03] <synic> AquaF0x: quit being lazy.
[12:03] <AquaF0x> Does it tell me how to unpack with Sudo?
[12:03] <synic> IF you'd just read it, you'd have your answer.
[12:03] <synic> AquaF0x: read it and find out.
[12:03] <AquaF0x> k
[12:03] <galorin> vinnybinny, Perhaps the hpijs driver needs an update.  :)
[12:03] <yoshiznit123> anybody with a toshiba tecra laptop gotten the toshiba and toshiba_acpi modules to work?
[12:04] <piclez> enyc: do you know how to use a history command by it's id?
[12:04] <kdotsky> piclez: !(thenumber)
[12:04] <PRab> Hi
[12:04] <kdotsky> piclez: and it repeats that id
[12:04] <piclez> nice :) haha thanks
[12:04] <enyc> piclez: you mean a command in the bash shell ? I dont know what you mean
[12:05] <piclez> yes ;) kdotsky help me tks
[12:05] <AquaF0x> What's the application name for archive manager?
[12:05] <AquaF0x> synic.
[12:05] <enyc> kdotsky: is that an the bash shell??
[12:05] <vinnybinny> galorin: if you mean i need to update my hplip driver im already running it i compiled it yesterday just to make sure it wasn't a version thing. ooorr if you mean they need to come up with a new driver then yes i agree ;)
[12:05] <kdotsky> enyc: he means the id when u look at history (yess bash)
[12:05] <galorin> vinnybinny, or perhaps check items #5 and #7 items, make sure your system is ready for it.
[12:05] <kdotsky> enyc: i think it works in other shells too not sure tho
[12:05] <enyc> kdotsky: cooo ok
[12:05] <AquaF0x> gksudo <what is program name for archives?>
[12:05] <enyc> piclez: you can also use ctrl-r to help you.........
[12:05] <erUSUL> AquaF0x: file-roller
[12:06] <AquaF0x> Thanks
[12:06] <enyc> piclez: and start typing the beginning of a previous command.................
[12:06] <Breg> can a firewire and a 'regular' ethernet connection be used at the same time?
[12:06] <piclez> enyc: that's new, very cool :)
[12:06] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i set the essid to blank in the GUI then tried setting it with iwconfig... no luck
[12:06] <erUSUL> Breg: whay not?
[12:06] <goochy> can anyone point me toward a walkthrough for setting up access to read/write on NTFS drives?
[12:06] <erUSUL> !fuse
[12:06] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[12:06] <Breg> cause everytime i try to do that the ethernet one stops working
[12:06] <enyc> Breg: well theres no reason  they cant be connected as such
[12:07] <looktj> to every newbie you might wanna use aptitude instead of apt-get
[12:07] <vinnybinny> galorin: this is the steps i made to get the latest and greatest http://hplip.sourceforge.net/install/step2/ubuntu606.html
[12:07] <vinnybinny> and still no dice
[12:07] <enyc> dpupp: but you need to understand IP routing to sort that out.......
[12:07] <looktj> !aptitude
[12:07] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[12:07] <erUSUL> Breg: any clues on /var/log/messages as to why is this happening?
[12:08] <eternalswd> kdotsky: I just wonder if it might be an issue of the Netgear not being compatible with the router.  I still think you should try it on your windows box.  If it doesn't work there then no amount of tweaking will get it to work in ubuntu.
[12:08] <kdotsky> eternalswd: so do you think the drivers and such are correct, with no conflicts?
[12:08] <yoshiznit123> goochy, you can also try ntfs-3g: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[12:08] <erUSUL> Breg: maybe a shared hardware interrupt issue?
[12:08] <eternalswd> kdotsky, it looks like you set it up correctly
[12:08] <kdotsky> eternalswd: router is Netgear as well, but perhaps i should make sure it works on windows still
[12:09] <PRab> I have a laptop with a turion X2 processor, I woul like to install the 64bit edition, but am worried about driver issuse. Do you think I should use the 32bit version instead?
[12:09] <kdotsky> eternalswd: should the blue light be working at this point?
[12:09] <galorin> vinnybinny, ok, I've gotten to step 4, reading through.  Getting a bit bleary-eyed..   When you tried to add the printer, which method did you use?
[12:09] <eternalswd> kdotsky, no, not if it's not connected to anything
[12:09] <AshDragonScale> Can anyone tell me how to change the image on the splash screen and background color that shows up when loading Ubuntu? I remember doing it in badger but can't seem to get it right on DapperDrake
[12:09] <vinnybinny> all of them
[12:09] <vinnybinny> the standard ubuntu version
[12:09] <vinnybinny> then to forums opinions
[12:10] <vinnybinny> then the hplip ways
[12:10] <erUSUL> !enter
[12:10] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[12:10] <kdotsky> eternalswd: there shouldn't be any difference using kubunti right?
[12:10] <DuneBO> hi
[12:10] <eternalswd> kdotsky, I forgot to ask for the output of ndiswrapper -l
[12:11] <AquaF0x> Hey guys everytime I extract I have problems over-writing folders, why?
[12:11] <kdotsky> eternalswd: net111v2 driver present, hardware present
[12:11] <erUSUL> PRab: the problem is not the drivers but userspace apps flash, w32codecs etc will not work
[12:11] <AquaF0x> Anybody?
[12:11] <Breg> erUSUL: that messages file is way to big to find anything in , how do i check those hardware interrupts?
[12:11] <eternalswd> kdotsky, I wouldn't think kubuntu would be any different
[12:11] <eternalswd> kdotsky, you definitely have it set up correctly, so I'd try it in windows to see if it works there
[12:11] <kdotsky> eternalswd: maybe it has something to do with my desktop hardware... *shrug*
[12:12] <PRab> So 64bit should work better than the 32bit?
[12:12] <DuneBO> my totem does not use libdvdcss. I got it the libdvdcss-deb-package and installed it, but totem still tells my, that it can not find the library. What do i have to do?
[12:12] <kdotsky> eternalswd: thank you much, i'll try in windows, and get back to u if you're still around
[12:12] <freshmint> hey, is the content of the live cd exactly the same as the basic install?
[12:12] <erUSUL> Breg: at the end of the file search backwards. is a log file. you can type 'tail -f /var/log/messages' and try to reproduce the problem while watching the log realtime
[12:12] <gamars> Sup All. I am having instability issues with Ubuntu when running massive amount of computation. I surely do not have the knowledge to figure the reason and fix it, so I thought of trying the most stable release of Ubuntu. Which one would it be?
[12:12] <Flannel> freshmint: yes
[12:12] <galorin> vinnybinny, ok, I'm stuck.  Have you got hp-setup or hp-makeuri in your $PATH
[12:12] <eternalswd> kdotsky, just to make sure you're not using 64bit version are you?
[12:12] <kdotsky> eternalswd: no
[12:13] <vinnybinny> yeah
[12:13] <Flannel> freshmint: alternate and desktop ISOs install the same ubuntu desktop
[12:13] <vinnybinny> the printer is setup
[12:13] <vinnybinny> it take the print job
[12:13] <vinnybinny> it just locks up the printer
[12:13] <eternalswd> kdotsky, ok yeah I'd definitely try it in windows.  best thing to do when stumped with something like this :)
[12:13] <galorin> gamars, could be anything from overheating, to bad RAM to power supply if it's hardware.
[12:13] <kdotsky> eternalswd: agreed, thx again, bbl
[12:14] <PRab> what are "userspace apps flash"?
[12:14] <galorin> vinnybinny, sorry, you've got me stumped then... :( sorry
[12:14] <vinnybinny> galorin: no big deal.  A for effort :)
[12:14] <gamars> galorin:  I checked and double checked the hardware... the problem is at some point ORACLE fails and somewhat 1/2 the system keeps on going but is not responsive at all...
[12:14] <Breg> erUSUL: ok, going to try that
[12:15] <AshDragonScale> Can anyone tell me how to change the image on the splash screen and background color that shows up when loading Ubuntu? I remember doing it in badger but can't seem to get it right on DapperDrake
[12:16] <gamars> galorin: While I am sure the issue could be fixed by a linux/Ubuntu guru I do not pocess the skills. So before going to the next level and actually find such a person I am giving it another try with a fail-safe setup. So that's why I am looking for the most stable release that Ubuntu has.
[12:16] <galorin> gamars, ah, Oracle.  That explains a lot.  Probably check with Oracle support, see if they can help you out.
[12:16] <freshmint> Flannel, does ubuntu have beagle?
[12:16] <NickGarvey> freshmint: if it doesn't it is most likely in the repos
[12:16] <galorin> gamars, that'd be dapper.
[12:17] <gamars> galorin: Oracle doesn't support Ubuntu (nor Debian except for the "Express" version of their DB)... So I am left alone :-p
[12:17] <Flannel> freshmint: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/gnome/beagle
[12:17] <gamars> galorin: Dapper is 6.06 right?
[12:17] <Flannel> gamars: aye
[12:18] <gamars> Flannel: aight that is what I am running right now...
[12:18] <stray77> 6.06.1
[12:18] <galorin> gamars, any reason for adherance to an unsupported OS?  Heck, you're trying to run freakin ORACLE!  Might as well do it with something they'll support you with if you're laying out that much dosh to begin with.
[12:19] <Flannel> stray77: no. 6.06.1 is another ISO version, Dapper is Dapper.
[12:19] <gamars> galorin: You're right about that. Yet I will NOT run MS, Debian doesn't support most of my hardware and I really don't like the whole RedHat series...
[12:19] <Flannel> 6.06.1 is 6.06 with updates already installed, and an updated installer
[12:19] <gamars> and honestly, Ubuntu is sexy :-p
[12:20] <galorin> gamars, I agree with the MS thing, wouldn't trust it to run a pocket calculator let alone a mission-critical DB.  I swore off RH a long time ago.  I thought they struck a deal with SUSE though.. or is that just a rumor..
[12:21] <PRab> erUSUL what are "userspace apps flash"?
[12:21] <gamars> galorin: ,mm let me see into that... Would break my heart to leave Ubuntu for SUSE...
[12:22] <erUSUL> PRab: userspace apps like flash, and the ones using w32codecs will not work on 64bits ubuntu
[12:22] <jordan> Can anybody help me with this
[12:22] <erUSUL> !anybody
[12:22] <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?
[12:22] <CBMz> Thanks. I have no upgraded my ubuntu to kubuntu :D
[12:22] <jordan> I have ubuntu installed but i want to dual boot xp
[12:22] <CBMz> now*
[12:22] <galorin> gamars, SLES is supported... You can always do Oracle on SUSE, and run Ubuntu along with it using Xen.
[12:22] <AshDragonScale> PRab: is seems to me that UserSpace would be the "My documents, My Pictures, etc" on windowns, Apps would be your windowns apps and flash would be flash... just my thoughts
[12:23] <jordan> I need to have windows but i dont want to destroy my Ubuntu
[12:23] <PRab> How do I know which ones use w32codecs?
[12:23] <jordan> Hello.....
[12:23] <jordan> Anybody help me on dualboot
[12:23] <erUSUL> jordan: that's the default if you have windowsXp installed on your hd before installing ubuntu
[12:23] <piclez> this channel is crazy, lots of people and content :)
[12:23] <Flannel> jordan: it's easier to install ubuntu second
[12:23] <gamars> galorin: why not.. Although I'd like to keep the number of complication to its minimum... and I just realized that SUSE's packae management is RPM... Back to nightmares...
[12:24] <jordan> Flannel, But i already have ubuntu (Been using it long time)
[12:24] <galorin> Aww, now this is cute... My 2 year old got up a few minutes ago, (11 PM here)  and she's got art materials... She's making a penguin.  Methinks I am raising her well.
[12:24] <jordan> erUSUL, .... How can i install with ubuntu already there
[12:24] <pluma> What does the LTS in 6.06 LTS stand for? Leaning Toothpick Syndrome?
[12:24] <orbin> jordan: you need to resize it to make space for xp ... Flannel's right, it's easier to just do a clean install, xp first.
[12:24] <jordan> galorin, Seriously?
[12:24] <Flannel> jordan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:24] <erUSUL> jordan: winxp will insist in intalling on the first partition of the first hard drive. do you have the partition free??
[12:25] <PRab> Long Term Support
[12:25] <pluma> PRab: ta
[12:25] <jordan> erUSUL, I only have one hd. And i think i gave the whole thing to ubuntu. How can i check.
[12:25] <galorin> gamars, I believe YAST has been better than Red Hat's offerings for dealing with dependancies.  Besides, if you're doing all your other stuff in ubuntu running atop Xen, well, there's your apt system
[12:25] <NickGarvey> jordan: fdisk -l
[12:25] <NickGarvey> jordan: (sudo fdisk -l)
[12:26] <erUSUL> jordan: as pointed out in the channel you will have to use gparted or other tool to make room for winxp
[12:26] <gamars> galorin: Congrats for the penguin to your kid. That sounds like a possibility.

[12:33] <gamars> galorin: I hear you... that's why it's hard to find someone to do that... Good admin get fed up fairly fast... How would you go about that? That is where would you look for soemone that has the skills to admin a system as a part-time (at the beginning at least)

[12:38] <LuisMendes> erUSUL, those are command line right? I was looking for programs with a GUI...
[12:38] <pluma> Jman8888: AFAIK, you need to resize the partition on your primary master so you have some space for a Windows partition, then install WinXP and recover the Ubuntu installation via the Install CD. The easiest way is installing Windows first and Ubuntu second, though.
[12:38] <rkd> HaroldJohnson: #ubuntu-ppc?
[12:38] <gamars> galorin: Not yet for 2 reasons: One does not really know what he gets from a bounty... and second is a trust issues, especially regarding what I am working on... So I am going thru all my acquaintance and their own to find someone... slow and numbing process...

[12:39] <rkd> HaroldJohnson: not sure, just a guess
[12:39] <erUSUL> Jman8888: yes as i've said you have to make a new partition at the begining of the disk for xp. be carefull as messing with partitions is allways risky business. you can use gparted

[12:39] <erUSUL> !grub > Jman8888

[12:43] <kingsing> Anyone experienced this "shimmering line" from top to bottom on old computers?
[12:43] <Joe-Kerr> hello guys, wonder if you could lend a noob a hand? :=)
[12:43] <Flannel> kit^: build essential will install everything you need

[12:44] <azureal> quintin_, what card again?
[12:44] <racefire> I'm just trying to get people to pay attention. Sorry if I disturbed anyone.
[12:44] <gamars> galorin: What are you going in College back is for (barely english I know but you get the idea right?)
[12:44] <racefire> I mean, not pay attention, remember. That's it.
[12:44] <galorin> gamars, it's tempting.  would you be willing to email me a few details so I can get a better idea what I'd be dealing with?
[12:44] <kit^> flannel - why isnt installed on the default install tho - i  only just installed ubuntu so just playing about

[12:46] <izm99> hey all... how do i change the runlevel of pcmcia services on my desktop (which it does not apply to).  I figure it might make the bootup time a bit faster, and I wouldn't have to see a "failed" each time. ^.^

[12:49] <Flannel> Jman8888: why not just sneakernet that?
[12:49] <erUSUL> kit^: users should use the programs aviable in the repos trough apt... if they want more recent programs or newer versions they can learn to install b-e
[12:49] <quintin_> azureal: any idea...?
[12:49] <lookt1> racefire: i got answers quickly on forums
[12:49] <racefire> I didn't.

[12:49] <Jman8888> Flannel, .....
[12:49] <lookt1> !aptitude
[12:50] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[12:50] <Jman8888> Flannel, Because i dont know what it is..
[12:50] <Darkhack> I know Ubuntu will use version .17 of the kernel.  However will it use .17.0 or will they keep up to date and use 2.6.17.8?
[12:50] <Flannel> Jman8888: sneakernet is where you burn/write to physical media, then walk (hense the sneakers) to the other computer, and copy
[12:50] <racefire> lookt1: How fast is fast?
[12:50] <Flannel> Darkhack: ubuntu always keeps up on bugfixes
[12:51] <Jman8888> Flannel, Because its 20+ Gigs of data....(A lot of Cd's and i dont have any blank dvd's to burn with)
[12:51] <Darkhack> Thank you Flannel.  The newer versions of .17 fixed some IRQ issues I had.
[12:51] <racefire> g2g
[12:51] <racefire> Waiting for a reply on the forums.\
[12:52] <erUSUL> Darkhack: probably the last 2.6.17.y + the ubuntu specific patches (mostly drivers)
[12:52] <quintin_> Someone tell me what I need to do to get this driver to compile ???
[12:52] <justin_> Can I uninstall the Ubuntu desktop pack with - apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop?
[12:53] <Flannel> justin_: no.  that only uninstalls the meta package itself
[12:53] <justin_> Flannel: Ok so how do I go back to pure Xubuntu?
[12:54] <Flannel> justin_: You have to uninstall it all manually.  Unless you installed u-d with aptitude, or you can use deborphan
[12:54] <kit^> im being silly but in xchat whats the equivalent of tabbing to get the full users name to appear in the input line
[12:54] <erUSUL> quintin_: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[12:54] <Tear> I m tring to listen to music from a site
[12:54] <Tear> and Im missing a plug in
[12:54] <Tear> I installed flash

[12:54] <erUSUL> !enter > Tear
[12:54] <quintin_> erUSUL: no network connectivity.
[12:55] <justin_> Flannel: Ok so if I install Ubuntu Desktop with aptitude I can remove it?
[12:55] <erUSUL> quintin_: maybe the package comes in the cd ?? if not you have a catch-22 problem
[12:55] <djtansey> i have a data recovery question. i have an external drive (usb) that seemed to die while doing a fsck on it (vfat file system.) i tried it a couple of times, stupidly. i am now trying to find out if there is some kind of tool that can look into a mangled filesystem and look for whole files
[12:56] <Flannel> justin_: yeah, and it'll remove all the dependencies you added with it
[12:56] <quintin_> this ubuntu stuff is neat
[12:56] <justin_> Perfect, does the same go for Synaptic?
[12:57] <evan_w00> whats the command to list all the hda1, usb1, ect..?
[12:57] <quintin_> but more wireless needs to work out of the box!!!
[12:57] <selinuxium> What is the command to switch between diffent java environments?

[12:57] <Intangir> update-alternatives java
[12:57] <Intangir> or something like that
[12:57] <sycron> I'm thinking about dual-booting it with Ubuntu
[12:58] <Intangir> sycron: fedora core isnt worth the space it would take up
[12:58] <Intangir> sycron: not if youve already got ubuntu
[12:58] <evan_w00> erUSUL ohhhhh xD lol.
[12:59] <sycron> Well I'd like to install a second distro, preferably with more emphasis on the terminal and less so the GUI itself

[01:00] <erUSUL> in54no: anjuta, kdevelop, vdk builder, emacs ;) ....
[01:00] <v1per> quintin_, bleh, my wireless randomly stopped working...and after i did something stupid all went down =P
[01:00] <sycron> I like the debian packaging system, so I guess I could try the unstable install or something
[01:00] <sycron> Slackware is also an option
[01:00] <oscarpc3> hola
[01:00] <in54no> erUSUL, humm, thanks, i want one, that i put a components

[01:01] <sycron> Or noteworthy
[01:01] <orbin> m1sh-L: ah, i've seen that one
[01:01] <quintin_> erUSUL: THANK YOU !!  make is now doing something instead of bitching.  maybe I can get this driver to work now.  the guide I find for it on ubuntu docs does not tell you to install any kernel stuff
[01:01] <dts> what's the leading p2p programm nowadays
[01:02] <v1per> bt
[01:02] <erUSUL> quintin_: no problem. we are here to help if we can

[01:04] <quintin_> erUSUL: Where is modprobe.conf ??  it say to append some text to modprobe.conf... script try to grep /etc/modprobe.conf, but it does not exist ... ( ! )
[01:05] <erUSUL> quintin_: now is /etc/modules.conf
[01:06] <quintin_> erUSUL: mmm ok.  I put text there..... I really hope this works !
[01:06] <quintin_> erUSUL: I have a file, /etc/modules , but no /etc/modules.conf ...
[01:07] <erUSUL> quintin_: sorry, is /etc/modprobe.conf
[01:07] <quintin_> erUSUL: that file does not exist.  can I directly create it?
[01:09] <erUSUL> quintin_: you do not have /etc/modprobe.conf nor /etc/modules.conf nor /etc/modules ??!!
[01:10] <quintin_> erUSUL: I do not have /etc/modprobe.conf I do not have /etc/modules.conf I do have /etc/modules
[01:11] <erUSUL> quintin_: maybe yo can add the line in some file under /etc/modprobe.d/ (i've been upgrading my installation from warty to dapper so i have all the files i told you)

[01:13] <Flannel> Jman8888: if it's on your LAN, why aren't you using ftp?
[01:14] <Jman8888> Flannel, Ftp is faster?
[01:14] <kit^> whats the default su password
[01:14] <Flannel> Jman8888: yeah, it's not encrypted
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !sudo
[01:14] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:14] <Flannel> kit^: ubuntu doesn't have a root password by default, as (again) there's usually no need
[01:14] <kit^> i tried nothing and it didnt work
[01:14] <Jman8888> Flannel, but i have no ftp account that can upload files...
[01:15] <erUSUL> quintin_: man modprobe.conf (you can use /etc/modprobe.conf or a file under /etc/modprobe.d/ )
[01:15] <Flannel> kit^: no, no.  root is disabled, we use sudo instead
[01:15] <kit^> kk
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !sudo > kit^
[01:15] <Flannel> Jman8888: ah, you don't control the other machine?
[01:15] <erUSUL> !root > kit^
[01:15] <Jman8888> Flannel, I do control it. Just configured my Ftp wrong. Im can touch both right now they ar 2cm apart.
[01:16] <Jman8888> Flannel, I dont see why it takes so long
[01:16] <Flannel> Jman8888: because via ssh, you have a bunch of encryption overhead
[01:17] <kit^> cheers guys
[01:17] <erUSUL> Jman8888: use a more direct way to trnasfer files a combination of 'nc' and 'tar' rocks. take a look at the man page for nc
[01:17] <Jman8888> erUSUL, Nc.... Sorry i have no clue...
[01:18] <evan_w00> why does my "1.0X" Firefox  open up even though i installed 1.5X?
[01:18] <synic> because the 1.0x is still in your path first
[01:18] <evan_w00> oh
[01:18] <Flannel> evan_w00: your 'sensible-browser' still points to 1.0X probably
[01:19] <evan_w00> soo... is there a way to remove that?
[01:19] <erUSUL> Jman8888: the example is in zless /usr/share/doc/netcat/README.gz.
[01:19] <evan_w00> because i can't seem to add v1.5 via "add pplications"
[01:19] <Mewshi> what's edgy?  is that the new version of ubuntu?

[01:20] <abdonly> no no
[01:20] <Mewshi> is it safe to set apt to use edgy's repos?

[01:49] <nivanson> orbin: it crashes whenever it anything wants opengl.
[01:49] <mcphail> nivanson: i have used the fglrx with that card, but the "mobility" series have vendor-specific changes so YMMV
[01:50] <devnull> i get default with default X cursors for those apps
[01:50] <nivanson> mcphail: did you use it with radeon 9000 or radeon 9000 mobility? :)
[01:50] <erkanoz07> orbin i must run root
[01:50] <mcphail> nivanson: mobility
[01:50] <orbin> nivanson: does fglrxinfo indicate  fglrx is working (it should show ati, not mesa)

[01:52] <izm99> quintin_sad, you could try here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[01:53] <mcphail> nivanson: the ati site directs you to your vendor's homepage (or at least it used to)

[01:54] <quintin_sad> quintin_sad: I have ... rt2570 ... it won't do shit
[01:54] <Jbirk> WMP54G?
[01:55] <nivanson> mcphail: Do you remember having to do something specific to enable your hardware accelration for the radeon 9000 mobility card on dapper or was it just install'n'go for you? I searched for the problem I was having some and I noticed it might be a bug in the driver that should be fixed now. It might work this time!
[01:55] <quintin_sad> izm99: I have rt2570   and it won't do anything.  what is your part?  I am trying to get to work DWL-G122 from D-Link
[01:56] <mcphail> nivanson: it was actually breezy I installed on the laptop. But, no, there wasn't anything special to be done.

[02:00] <izm99> quintin_sad, you said it, not me.  :|
[02:00] <quintin_sad> quintin_sad: I said no such thing!!!

[02:07] <jrib> !upgrade > TokenBad
[02:08] <v1per> and it's not ubuntu_sux, it's your_wireless_card_sux
[02:08] <bimberi> TokenBad: (s)he needs update to breezy then dapper
[02:08] <jrib> TokenBad: you upgrade hoary to breezy and then breezy to dapper
[02:08] <TokenBad> ok thanks
[02:08] <darkrain> my install hangs at %15 "detecting File Systems". any idea how to fix this?
[02:08] <v1per> ubuntu_sux, i've been through much worse wireless trouble... *remembers gentoo*
[02:09] <mikeymike-linux> roogs
[02:09] <Jbirk> darkrain, you should check the install media
[02:09] <TokenBad> I went to the first link and it don't load anything other than a page that says breezyupdate but then nothing on how
[02:09] <darkrain> tokenbad: give it a moment, sometimes its slow loading the rest
[02:10] <ubuntu_sux> v1per: hrm.  whole new driver !!

[02:13] <ubuntu_sux> v1per: so... which files did I frack up with my meddling so far... I think maybe just modprobe.conf and interfaces.  maybe
[02:13] <v1per> oh, but you may not have set up your java yet
[02:13] <darkrain> can someone tell me the difference between the x386 alternate and desktop install?
[02:13] <v1per> ubuntu_sux, interfaces looks ok, so
[02:13] <ubuntu_sux> v1per: gentoo somewhat a pain in the ass.  one of my servers with gentoo net driver DISAPPEARED

[02:13] <cef> I've got a P4 board w/SiS 661FX/SiS 964 (north/southbridge) combo on it running Dapper (6.06.1), and "reboot" or Ctrl-Alt-Del (which calls reboot) doesn't work. Machine halts and powers off properly, but reboot goes through the shutdown procedure and then hangs (have to power off or reset via button).

[02:13] <focculare> how can I look up all my files on the hard drive with ubuntu (meaning the Windows files)
[02:13] <v1per> ubuntu_sux, ah, so don't get pissed off at ubuntu just yet
[02:14] <ubuntu_sux> v1per: I'm wondering.  wtf, what's going on with daedelus ??!  so I take a monitor to it, plug it in, and it's on, but there's no driver.  had to configure modules and install them... then put in the appropriate dependency file ... was crazy.
[02:14] <ubuntu_sux> well it is supposed to be easy for user, eh
[02:14] <v1per> relatively
[02:14] <jrib> focculare: by "look up" do you mean mount windows drives?
[02:14] <v1per> but keep in mind who its parent is
[02:15] <focculare> jrib: yes, i have a problem loading loading up windows on this laptop, and i want to use ubuntu to get to the files in My documents, and so on, and make a backup to later format and reinstall windows on it

[02:18] <v1per> ubuntu_sux, driver compiled ok?
[02:18] <looktj> jrib: i enabled multiverse, others: sorry for flooding
[02:18] <nivanson> I am upgrading my kernel + driver packages right now to the newest version. I hope this will solve my accelration problem.
[02:18] <cef> darkrain: alternate has a text mode installer. Can also be used to install servers (minimal install). desktop is a LiveCD that you can play with, and then install from within the LiveCD
[02:18] <jrib> looktj: so just install the sun-java5-jdk package and you will get the jdk
[02:18] <v1per> nivanson, it could

[02:24] <Jbirk> what do you mean !lamp?
[02:24] <mcphail> eegore: the problem lies with packages with no source code (such as flash)
[02:24] <jrib> piclez: printenv maybe
[02:24] <jrib> Jbirk: check your private messages from ubotu, !lamp invokes the bot to send you info
[02:24] <eegore> ah there is the rub

[02:32] <hav0k> it came as cairo-dock-0.0.1b.tar.gz
[02:33] <Machtyn> just after installation, does ubuntu (dapper) have any remote access ports open?  (i.e. ssh, telnet, vnc)
[02:33] <mcphail> Machtyn: not by default
[02:33] <hav0k> how do i install cairo-dock-o.o.1b.tar.gz?
[02:33] <rsk> compile it probably
[02:33] <hav0k> how do i do that?
[02:34] <Machtyn> dang.  It wants to boot right into the WM, and I have it hooked into a tv that can't handle anything but 640x480 or less

[02:35] <Fluxboxen> any ideas
[02:36] <hav0k> Fluxboxen, are you running compiz by any chance?
[02:36] <Fluxboxen> Indeed I am
[02:36] <jeff303> what is the difference between dpkg-reconfigure and reinstalling a package in synaptic?
[02:36] <Fluxboxen> is that the problem?
[02:36] <hav0k> yeah
[02:36] <focculare> v1per: ok, but i just want to copy some files, and send them to my computer, I don't want to modify any of those files
[02:36] <hav0k> Fluxboxen, well, you have to use something like cgwd
[02:36] <v1per> focculare, but if you're in windows, you can use a prog called explore2fs to find your linux partition and export filees
[02:36] <v1per> (i.e. copy them from linux to windows)
[02:36] <JackMacOKC> SANE 1.0.14 is in universe, but I can't tell if thats the frontend or backend. I need to install 1.0.18 backend to get my scanner to work. How can I tell which one the package in universe is?
[02:36] <hav0k> Fluxboxen, i know when i run compiz, it kills the gnome window decorator.
[02:37] <hav0k> just today i installed cgwd and now i can change the window borders
[02:37] <Fluxboxen> hav0k: Oh well, I thought it might have something to do with it
[02:37] <Fluxboxen> hav0k: I'll try installing that and will report back if it works
[02:37] <bubu1uk> any1 knows good player that can record stream (shoutcast)?
[02:37] <focculare> yeah, but the problem is that the windows of the machine i need the files won't load up, that's why i need to back'em up, so I can reformat the hd and reinstall windows, etc..
[02:37] <hav0k> Fluxboxen, but yeah, just install cgwd, and you also have to edit the file you have that starts compiz
[02:38] <hav0k> so it will load cgwd
[02:38] <Fluxboxen> will do
[02:38] <hav0k> cool
[02:38] <kit^> im trying to install a piece of software and i want all the files to go into t he /usr/share dir. I've extracted the targz to my home dir and when i try install it just installs it to the dir its at. how do i get it to install to the /usr/share dir?

[02:39] <Warbo> (I have both)
[02:39] <bj_> Does linux deal well with new hardware? I want to replace my mobo and processor but keep everything else. Do I have to do anything before I shut it down for the last time?
[02:40] <txx2> hello, I bought an sata II hard drive. It didn't come with any cables and of course I only have an IDE cable. Could someone point me in the right direction?
[02:40] <kit^> hav0k: extract the folder, find the install file and follow the instructions
[02:40] <shadeofgrey> i was wondering if anybody knows of programs for ubuntu or kubuntu that handle transfer of contacts from one phone to the otyher
[02:40] <jrib> focculare: I don't know what your best option is, but here are my thoughts: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently, set up ssh on windows, burn physical media, tar.gz the files and then send them through some chat protocol like aim
[02:40] <Warbo> bj_: Usually only partitions and graphics cards need to be tweaked. Sometimes sound, but not usually
[02:40] <shadeofgrey> can ubuntu handle SLI graphics configurations?
[02:41] <hav0k> kit^, the install file?  there is a file that is cairo-dock.  is that it?
[02:41] <JackMacOKC> txx2, you have to have a sata cable
[02:41] <hav0k> because i try to sudo ./cairo-dock, but i get a "Floating point exception"
[02:42] <JackMacOKC> txx2, you also have to have a sata controller
[02:42] <kit^> try ./usrinst.sh see if that works
[02:42] <hav0k> kit^, for me?
[02:42] <kit^> yes hav0k
[02:42] <hav0k> okay
[02:42] <txx2> JackMacOKC,  what do I search for?.. i put in 'sata cable' on www.ebuyer.com nothing.
[02:43] <hav0k> it says command not found... i dont think that file is in the folder
[02:43] <txx2> JackMacOKC,  I'm not sure if my mobo has an sata contorller, it is a msi k8n neo2 platinum
[02:43] <kit^> you sure there isnt a text file in that folder called INSTALL?
[02:43] <JackMacOKC> txx2: you're better getting one locally. you usually pay outrageous shipping on something like that..its a 10 dollar cable.
[02:43] <hav0k> ive got a Makefile, but i dont know what to do with those still... ive used linux for about a year and i dont know what makefiles are for

[02:43] <jacaru> Hello. I am trying to use a bluetooth mouse with evdev driver. The udev device wont be created until the mouse is connected to the dongle. To connect the mouse to the dongle I have to move the mouse or press one of ots buttons. This means Xorg wont load unless I do something fast with the mouse at boot. Its a pain. Any suggestions?
[02:44] <hav0k> kit^, definitely no INSTALL file... i know what you're talking about though
[02:44] <kit^> hav0k: where did you download the targz from?
[02:44] <hav0k> gnome-dock.org
[02:44] <bj_> ok whoops
[02:44] <bj_> did anyone say anything
[02:45] <hav0k> i tried looking through the ubuntu forums to see if anyone else had installed this on their system, which im sure people have, but i didnt find anything
[02:46] <bj_> OK iall ask again since I hit a wrong button and erased the answers :)
[02:46] <JackMacOKC> txx2: check your PM window
[02:46] <bj_> If I get a new mobo and go to dual core, will I have to change anything or will the bootup process catch this and load the appropriate stuff?
[02:46] <kit^> can you send me the targz?
[02:47] <kit^> hav0k ^
[02:47] <hav0k> kit^, yeah sure...
[02:47] <omnid> Nah, now I don't wanna talk about it
[02:47] <piclez> why setting 'export JAVA_HOME=XX' it's not being saved after a reboot? am I missing something

[02:48] <cef> I've got a P4 board w/SiS 661FX/SiS 964 (north/south) combo running Dapper (6.06.1), and "reboot"/Ctrl-Alt-Del (calls reboot) doesn't work. Machine "halt"s and powers off properly, but "reboot" goes through shutdown and then hangs (have to power off or reset via button). Get a "Restarting system" msg on the screen - that's it. Tried -386 and -686 kernels, no diff. Reset button works. Any suggestions?
[02:48] <v1per> hav0k, then "make", and sometimes "sudo make install"
[02:48] <JackMacOKC> bj_: what kernel are you running now?
[02:48] <bj_> non smp
[02:48] <_tcc> For some reason I was downloading mplayer and now I have no sound drivers.
[02:48] <_tcc> I cannot hear a damn thing.
[02:48] <bj_> JackMacOKC: k7 non smp
[02:48] <_tcc> What should I check for?
[02:48] <lookt1> what is the chmod command
[02:48] <JackMacOKC> bj_: k7 has smp built in..should pick it up right away IIRC
[02:48] <lookt1> i forgot
[02:49] <hav0k> v1per, it came with a Makefile
[02:49] <_tcc> setting permissions
[02:49] <JackMacOKC> lookt1: sets permissions
[02:49] <jrib> lookt1: type 'man chmod'
[02:49] <bj_> JackMacOKC: nice, and chipset stuff will be auto taken care of?
[02:49] <JackMacOKC> bj_: that i'm not sure of, but i think so.
[02:49] <hav0k> v1per, i really dont know much about makefiles, but i tried sudo make Makeflie... i dont know what that does
[02:50] <v1per> hav0k: just go into the directory and type "make"
[02:50] <lookt1> !man chmod
[02:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about man chmod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:50] <hav0k> i tried sudo make install, but it says, "No rule to make target 'install',  Stop."
[02:50] <hav0k> okay
[02:50] <kit^> vlper: if ive extracted my targz and tried installing it using the ./configure and setting the prefix and the sysconfdir to /usr and /etc respectively why does the program install itself to the directory where it is atm and not /usr/share?
[02:50] <v1per> hav0k: never have a make install before a make
[02:50] <JackMacOKC> lookt1: man chmod in a terminal
[02:51] <hav0k> v1per, i tried just make and it said, "Nothing to be done for 'all'."
[02:51] <Brokenstein> im trying to transfer data from an external hd and its moving way slower than it should (cpu,ram not showing too much activity on monitor) is it possible my usb driver isnt supporting usb2?
[02:51] <hav0k> kit^, i tried to send you the flie, but its still "waiting"
[02:51] <v1per> hav0k, hmm, then idk... it came w/o a readme, eh
[02:51] <lookt1> jrib: chmod -X ./fillename to make files executable right?
[02:51] <hav0k> yeah, v1per, no readme
[02:51] <kit^> hav0k: hasnt had anything my end
[02:51] <hav0k> okay, ill try again
[02:52] <JackMacOKC> bj_: either way, if you have the k7 kernel it will run fine..and if theres no smp, just update to the newest kernel and you'll have 2 procs
[02:52] <hav0k> hmm, it still says waiting kit^
[02:52] <jrib> lookt1: lowercase x
[02:52] <v1per> kit^, not sure
[02:52] <kit^> hav0k: dont understand
[02:52] <lookt1> jrib: ok
[02:52] <bj_> JackMacOKC: yeah thats kind of what I figured. thanks
[02:53] <JackMacOKC> bj_: np
[02:53] <kit^> vlper: it didnt make sense to me, shall i just extract the dir into the /usr/share then run all the config stuff?
[02:53] <v1per> kit^, btw, the 2nd char in my name is a one (1)
[02:54] <kit^> v1per: ah was wondering why it wasnt coming up on tab when i did vl!!
[02:54] <hav0k> so v1per, you dont know what exactly to do for it?  there is a Makefile, cairo-dock, cairo-dock.c, configure.scan, start-cairo-dock.sh, tango-colors.h, and then a bunch of icon files
[02:54] <bobc> I have the Kubuntu livecd - how can I boot into the CLI to fix my system. I'm using tv-out and the gui isn't coming up properly. I just want a command line so I can fix my grub config.
[02:55] <v1per> kit^,  you could try that, if directory important to you
[02:55] <v1per> is*
[02:55] <v1per> bobc: did you try Ctrl+Alt+f1?
[02:56] <kit^> v1per: it doesnt effect it tho does it?
[02:56] <v1per> bobc: then usually Ctrl+Alt+f7 to go back
[02:56] <v1per> nope
[02:56] <v1per> this is becoming an interesting compiling problem
[02:56] <hav0k> kit^, where were you wanting to put the file?
[02:56] <hav0k> /usr/share?
[02:56] <bobc> v1per: no, didn't try that. that drops you out of x11?
[02:57] <kit^> hav0k: yeha
[02:57] <v1per> bobc: ctrl+alt+   <f1, f2, f3....>  should switch ...i forget the term for it
[02:57] <v1per> bobc: it allows multiple logons to the system
[02:57] <v1per> sessions, if you will
[02:58] <hav0k> kit^, did it work by just putting it in /usr/share?
[02:58] <pebkac> hi.  i've already plowed through the forums and the wiki, but i seem to have an idiot problem.  i can connect to my wireless router, but i can't actually _do_ anything.
[02:58] <v1per> hav0k: maybe get some C   IDE and compile?
[02:58] <pebkac> i can't ping it.  i've even disabled all WEP/security, same problem.
[02:58] <hav0k> v1per, huh?  C    IDE?
[02:59] <kit^> hav0k: havent tried but going to now
[02:59] <pebkac> i've got an intel 3945abg wireless card, if that means anything... although ubuntu claims to have identified it properly.
[02:59] <v1per> C as in the programming language, and IDE as in integrated developing environment
[02:59] <BlueEagle> pebkac: got the ndiswrapper in and everything?
[02:59] <hav0k> v1per, well, i got the C part, there is the cairo-dock.c file in there
[02:59] <looktj> chmod: cannot access `./jdk-1_5_0_8-linux-i586.bin': No such file or directory
[02:59] <BlueEagle> pebkac: ie. have you done what's written in !wireless?
[03:00] <pebkac> well, i can't really do that if i can't get out onto the net.
[03:00] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell pebkac about wireless
[03:00] <BlueEagle> pebkac: Ahh, I see.
[03:00] <pebkac> why would i need the wrappers if ubuntu claims it's got my card pegged?
[03:00] <pebkac> nobody else seems to have problems with my card
[03:00] <BlueEagle> pebkac: because most wireless NICs are like winmodems.
[03:01] <BlueEagle> pebkac: i386 or amd64 system?
[03:01] <harisund> Is there a gnome only channel?
[03:01] <pebkac> i386
[03:01] <sl0b> hello! I had a video capture card plugged in USB when I installed Ubuntu. Now it is trying to use that as my sound card. How do I remove it as the 'default' sound device?
[03:01] <v1per> hav0k: omg, ... did you try to execute the .sh file?
[03:01] <BlueEagle> pebkac: encryption?
[03:01] <v1per> i forgot about this chance
[03:01] <hav0k> the start-cairo-dock.sh?
[03:01] <v1per> hav0k: i feel stupid now
[03:01] <looktj> k i made a bin executeable
[03:01] <earthling> synaptic error 'Dynamic MMap ran out of room' - Using -o APT::Cache-Limit="big number" works on cli but added it to apt.config and the problem is still there.  Any Help??
[03:01] <v1per> hav0k: cd into the directory, then do ./start-cairo-dock.sh
[03:02] <pebkac> none at the moment
[03:02] <pebkac> turned it off to see if that was the problem, since gnome seems to have trouble with WAP
[03:02] <pebkac> and shared WEP, at that
[03:02] <hav0k> v1per, yes, i had tried that
[03:02] <v1per> what error
[03:02] <hav0k> v1per, and i got some error as no such file or directory
[03:03] <hav0k> and a floating point exception
[03:03] <BlueEagle> pebkac: anything useful if you run iwconfig?
[03:03] <kit^> whats the command for extracting tar.gz's in console?
[03:03] <v1per> hav0k: could you paste it on some pastebin site?
[03:03] <sl0b> kit: tar -zxvf [file] 
[03:03] <_w^x_> anyone familar with the DVD ripper programs included with Ubuntu?
[03:03] <v1per> kit^,  usually   tar -xzf file
[03:03] <kit^> merci beaucoup
[03:03] <hav0k> i dont know any pastebin sites
[03:03] <_w^x_> and what do you recommend?
[03:03] <pebkac> i'll have to write the info down when i boot back into ubuntu
[03:03] <matiu> What's the package that makes me able to build things (like firefox)
[03:04] <looktj> how do i install jdk 08? I made the bin file executable by chmod
[03:04] <matiu> I'm getting "gcc cannot create executables"
[03:04] <BlueEagle> pebkac: also have a look in the menu System-->Administration-->Networking to see if your card is there.
[03:04] <pebkac> i know it picks up the mac, the ip (properly assigned from the router) and all the right subnet/gateway stuff.
[03:04] <pebkac> it is
[03:04] <robertj> _w^x_: I recommend k9copy
[03:04] <v1per> hav0k, http://pastebin.ca/ for example
[03:04] <hav0k> can we just use that one v1per ?
[03:04] <bobc> v1per: ctrl-alt-f1 did give me a command line, however the commands didn't do anything. 'ls /' simply gave a new line with a cursor and nothing else. ctrl-c did nothing.
[03:05] <BlueEagle> pebkac: ok. then we'll move along in the troubleshooting. (you might want to have a looksee on these pages yourself. Perhaps save them so you can review them when in linux.
[03:05] <v1per> hav0k: sry?
[03:05] <BlueEagle> )
[03:05] <redcard> _w^x_: DVD Ripper programs are kinda falling behind, though.  Newer DVDs might not be rippable
[03:05] <BlueEagle> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessNetworking and really most of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:05] <BlueEagle> pebkac: ^
[03:05] <looktj> v1per: how do i install the jdk bin file
[03:05] <_w^x_> redcard, Right now i'm using Thoggen
[03:05] <looktj> i made it executable
[03:05] <v1per> hav0k: i was asking if you could paste the error at pastebin.ca
[03:06] <kit^> hmmm wouldnt extract it  for some reason
[03:06] <redcard> _w^x_: I like Thoggen.
[03:06] <redcard> I use that on the jukebox portion of my ppc-linux
[03:06] <v1per> bobc: strange...it works for me
[03:06] <_w^x_> redcard, yeah, clean simple interface etc..
[03:06] <kit^> just kept on saying cannot open
[03:06] <_w^x_> ok thanks!
[03:06] <sl0b> how do i change my "default" sound device? It's trying to use my video capture device as my sound card.
[03:06] <redcard> Tho I wish I had some sort of "jukebox" launcher thing
[03:06] <v1per> bobc: just now, i could ctrl+alt+f1... log in.. do ls / or whatever, log out, and come back here w/ ctrl+alt+f7
[03:07] <hav0k> v1per, okay, im posting it there
[03:07] <BlueEagle> pebkac: http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/ also might be useful for clues
[03:07] <bcron> I have a big problem... I can't boot into Ubuntu or if I do boot I can't stay long.  My PC is powering off
[03:07] <v1per> looktj, you tried ./<filename> already?
[03:07] <hav0k> http://pastebin.ca/135533
[03:08] <bcron> It's not hardware related because Im doing fine in Windows XP right now (first time in months I've had to boot to XP)
[03:08] <BlueEagle> pebkac: The thing is that that particular card has been reported as workign out of the box.
[03:08] <bcron> This has happened before with other distros; but never in windows
[03:08] <BlueEagle> pebkac: Have you also got a wired nic on your lappy?
[03:08] <kit^> v1per: when trying to extract wouldnt extract saying the file or directory didnt exist
[03:09] <v1per> hav0k: i think the script needs to be changed.. .the author used his path
[03:09] <hav0k> v1per, how do i do that
[03:09] <v1per> hav0k: you have to edit the sh file w/ an editor
[03:09] <hav0k> which part?
[03:09] <looktj> grr
[03:09] <v1per> hav0k: notice how it said /home/klattimer/workspace/cairo-dock
[03:09] <looktj> i want jdk 8
[03:10] <hav0k> oh yeah
[03:10] <v1per> hav0k: find that in the script, and change it to /home/nevin/gnome-dock/cairo-dock
[03:10] <hav0k> v1per, well, should i put it in /usr/share
[03:10] <v1per> hav0k, what do you mean? put what
[03:11] <hav0k> should i put the cairo-dock in /usr/share
[03:11] <hav0k> like /usr/share/cairo-dock
[03:11] <v1per> kit^, you did "tar -xzf example.tar.gz" ?
[03:11] <kit^> v1per: yeha
[03:11] <v1per> kit^, the "f" is the last one before the filename, right
[03:12] <amicrawler> where do i get  reposits for ubnutu
[03:12] <geokok> Hi. U know how when u install/update the menus don't show up completely but have scrolling arrows?How can I disable that?
[03:12] <v1per> hav0k: i guess you could move it first, if you wanted to
[03:12] <kit^> well i tar -xzf ~/dir/example.tar.gz
[03:12] <kit^> ill try once more
[03:13] <hav0k> okay, im going to do that
[03:13] <BlueEagle> I hate it when I ask people questions and they just leave :/
[03:13] <v1per> lol BlueEagle
[03:14] <geokok> i wont if u help me....:-D
[03:14] <looktj> blueeagle: me too
[03:14] <kit^> v1per: failed again

[03:14] <hav0k> so v1per, what part do i change of which file?
[03:15] <dark-age> hablarab espaol aqui ??
[03:15] <v1per> kit^, go into the directory containing the tar.gz, then just do tar -xzf filename.tar.gz
[03:15] <Warbo> !es > dark-age
[03:15] <v1per> maybe you just got the path wrong? strange
[03:15] <geokok> ....anyone,,....?
[03:15] <dark-age> digalo
[03:15] <dark-age> erga alguien que me ayude :'(
[03:15] <BlueEagle> if pebkac comes back tell him that it is a good idea to answer the questions people ask him when they are trying to help him. :/
[03:16] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell dark-age about es
[03:16] <ghost_> que clase de ayuda necesitas?
[03:16] <v1per> dark-age, vete a #ubuntu-es
[03:16] <kit^> v1per: nah didnt get wrong path but then surely the same problem will occur caus then when i do the configure it will make it there and not in the /usr/share?
[03:16] <geokok> quidado ..who will help a mate?
[03:16] <hav0k> v1per, i cant gedit cairo-dock or start-cairo-dock.sh
[03:16] <v1per> hav0k, why not?
[03:17] <hav0k> oh wait, i can edit the start-cairo-dock.sh
[03:17] <v1per> whenever you "cant" you have to specify why
[03:17] <Warbo> hav0k: What's cairo-dock?
[03:17] <BlueEagle> geokok: I would guess gconf-editor under gnome-panel somwhere.
[03:17] <v1per> kit^, what's the error? pastebin
[03:17] <geokok> tried that but had no luck
[03:17] <hav0k> Warbo, its a dock application i guess... gnome-dock now...
[03:17] <hav0k> gnome-dock.org
[03:18] <kit^> v1per: the error of extraction?
[03:18] <hav0k> v1per, i still get a Floating point exception
[03:18] <Warbo> hav0k: Thanks. I like stuff like that
[03:18] <v1per> kit^ i guess.. this is weird
[03:18] <BlueEagle> bbl
[03:18] <navreet> anyone know why evince's "fit width" doesn't fit width?
[03:18] <tomaz27> hi all. i get this when i try to install software
[03:18] <v1per> hav0k, but you don't get the first error, right
[03:18] <ghost_> I DONT GET IT HOW COME MY INTERNET IS SO SLOW!
[03:18] <hav0k> Warbo, good luck getting it to work though... ive been working on it for about an hour... in the forums and on here... i just dont know what to do
[03:18] <tomaz27> E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[03:18] <tomaz27> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[03:18] <tomaz27> E: system-config-cluster: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[03:18] <hav0k> v1per, right!
[03:19] <navreet> ghost_, are you seeding pr0n in the background?
[03:19] <amicrawler> how do i add these list to apt-get?
[03:19] <looktj> !flood
[03:19] <ghost_> NO
[03:19] <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)
[03:19] <kit^> v1per: how much of it do you wish me to paste caus I cant go back that far
[03:19] <hav0k> v1per, haha, maybe this dock just wasnt meant to be...
[03:19] <v1per> hav0k: i think the author messed up lol
[03:19] <v1per> hav0k, it's a coding error now ;)
[03:19] <hav0k> v1per, maybe
[03:19] <looktj> !tell tomaz27 about flood
[03:20] <v1per> kit^: just what happens after you do "tar -xzf filename.tar.gz"
[03:20] <tomaz27> me
[03:20] <kit^> v1per: it works if i do it from its own dir just not if i try do it to the /usr/share
[03:20] <amicrawler> how do i add these list to apt-get?
[03:20] <hav0k> v1per, its a coding error in the cairo-dock file, cause the same message happens when i try to run just that file and not start-cairo-dock.sh
[03:20] <IcemanV9> !repo > amicrawler
[03:21] <hav0k> kit^, remember /usr/share has to have root to beable to write to it
[03:21] <kit^> hav0k: i did it with sudp
[03:21] <kit^> sudo*
[03:21] <hav0k> kit^, alright
[03:21] <kit^> tho ill check again
[03:21] <hav0k> i moved it there in root
[03:21] <hav0k> i just switched users to the root
[03:22] <hav0k> and then put it in there
[03:22] <hav0k> hmm, maybe i dont have Cairo installed
[03:22] <saintnicholas> i was wondering if there was a person here who has an dual mon ati card set up here?
[03:22] <kit^> hav0k: oh ok apparentely not then
[03:23] <kit^> hav0k: worked fine this time tarring to the usr share obs my sudo had timed out
[03:23] <hav0k> ah
[03:23] <hav0k> well there ya go
[03:23] <v1per> lol
[03:23] <kit^> now ill just run the config in there now :)
[03:23] <hav0k> i think this may not be working because i dont have Cairo
[03:23] <hav0k> whatever that is
[03:24] <geokok> by the way i was reading in a forum about "hinting the fonts by using ~/fonts" or something..can anybody explain what this does?
[03:24] <hav0k> or glitz
[03:24] <hav0k> man, this dock is just so complicated
[03:25] <hav0k> are their any better dock applications?
[03:25] <hav0k> is kiba any good, i think thats what it's called
[03:25] <saintnicholas> i think there is sled
[03:26] <v1per> lol hav0k..
[03:26] <v1per> "This version requires: ...
[03:26] <v1per> hav0k: http://www.gnome-dock.org/trac
[03:26] <v1per> did you set all that other stuff up lol
[03:26] <geokok> ok..night all
[03:27] <hav0k> v1per, thats the site im at
[03:27] <v1per> hav0k, you realize that you have to get Cairo 1.2.0 working, librsvg....etc etc
[03:27] <v1per> and only then attempt to run gnome-dock
[03:27] <hav0k> v1per, i realize that now... hahahaha, i dont know what that is
[03:28] <v1per> i dont either
[03:28] <hav0k> man, why is it so complicated... i have gnome... so shouldnt gnome-dock work too... i guess not
[03:28] <kit^> hav0k: lol
[03:28] <sethk> hav0k, yes, it should work
[03:28] <hav0k> im getting rid of this stuff and trying something different
[03:29] <hav0k> how do i remove a director from the command line?
[03:29] <hav0k> what is it?  rm -b?  or something like that
[03:29] <v1per> hav0k: cmon man..you're killing me =P    rm -r
[03:29] <hav0k> -d
[03:29] <hav0k> hahaha
[03:29] <KenSentMe> How do i type the euro symbol in Ubuntu?
[03:30] <hav0k> okay, whatever
[03:30] <n4cht> ok.. odd question.. but is there a way to make mplayer actually stretch the movie you're watching when you select fullscreen mode?  none of the dvds (legal, mind you) or videos i have will stretch when the aspect is changed.
[03:30] <hav0k> on to kiba dock
[03:30] <v1per> hav0k, btw, if your card doesnt have 3d acceleration, then xgl/compiz transparency effects will slow you down
[03:31] <unkn0wn2u> whats the kde type app thats like beagle?
[03:31] <hav0k> v1per, my card does, and it has worked fine for a while with transparencies
[03:31] <v1per> true transparency?
[03:31] <hav0k> n4cht, ive had that same trouble for so long
[03:31] <bertlacy812> if I want to share my cdrive in windows to ubunto, what command do i type?
[03:31] <n4cht> it's pissing me off something fierce, hav0k.
[03:31] <hav0k> v1per, whatever transparencies compiz uses when a window goes to the backround
[03:32] <unkn0wn2u> n4cht, zoom
[03:32] <looktj> what is the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[03:32] <bertlacy812> kubuntu is the kde version
[03:32] <robertj> bertlacy812: are your samba users set up properly & already able to access otehr shares?

[03:39] <phiber_optic> hav0k: my sizes are 486 mb and 10.2 gig
[03:39] <unkn0wn2u> n4cht, try editing your mplayer.conf
[03:39] <hav0k> n4cht, if you figure out how to force it to zoom in the mplayer gui, please please please tell me
[03:39] <v1per> Grise1, how about " rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000" for options
[03:39] <n4cht> heh.  can ya tell i haven't fired up ubuntu in months?
[03:39] <phiber_optic> deam this new xchat gnome is more complicated than the previous one
[03:39] <Grise1> vlper:  can you step me through it pse?
[03:39] <pike_> Grise1 i normally just sudo mkdir /media/hda1 && sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /media/hda1
[03:40] <hav0k> phiber_optic, do you have windows on your computer already?
[03:40] <hav0k> phiber_optic, or some other os?
[03:40] <unkn0wn2u> does dapper use a inotify kernel?
[03:40] <phiber_optic> hav0k: yes
[03:40] <v1per> Grisel: well sudo <editor of choice> /etc/fstab
[03:40] <hav0k> phiber_optic, did you defrag the hardrive before you started to install ubuntu?
[03:40] <Droit> Hi all
[03:40] <phiber_optic> the thing is before i used to have ubuntu
[03:40] <Grise1> Pike:  I'll try you and vlper's directions and see...
[03:41] <phiber_optic> but my bother board got burned and processor so Im installing newone
[03:41] <phiber_optic> but for some reason my old partitions are deleted
[03:41] <pollypocket> hey there for some reason i keep getting this website that tells me to GET FLASH. Synaptic has it listed as checked off but I cant seem to find any where in firefox to verify that it is or what version
[03:41] <v1per> Grisel: and add a line, or edit a line such as "/dev/hda1       /mnt/share      vfat    rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000   0 0"
[03:41] <hav0k> phiber_optic, oh, i see
[03:41] <v1per> Grisel: assuming /mnt/share exists
[03:41] <Droit> Is it possible to pre-order a CD of Edgy Eft or will i have to wait for it to be out and then go to shipit?
[03:41] <pike_> pollypocket, in addressbar type about:plugins i think
[03:41] <hav0k> phiber_optic, well, that seems kinda strange to me that you have two sections...
[03:42] <sniff_> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[03:42] <phiber_optic> yeah I know
[03:42] <v1per> Grisel: but name it w/e you want... and my second char is a one (1), not the letter l
[03:42] <phiber_optic> what if i click on select the most continueos space
[03:42] <pollypocket> pike_: thanks
[03:42] <tyler_d> help mounting my dvd burner?
[03:42] <n4cht> woot.  got it.
[03:42] <phiber_optic> hav0k: another question why is the xchat gnome so different from the other one
[03:43] <n4cht> /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf   the line "zoom=no"  ... change that to a yes.
[03:43] <hav0k> phiber_optic, i would go with the most continuous space if i were in your shoes
[03:43] <phiber_optic> okk
[03:43] <phiber_optic> ill do that
[03:43] <hav0k> phiber_optic, and i dont know... i messed up my xchat-gnome so im back to regular xchat
[03:43] <hav0k> phiber_optic, i dont know what i did, but it just wouldnt work
[03:43] <phiber_optic> how do i go back
[03:43] <pollypocket> ok so I have listed Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63 and two mime types application/x-shockwave-flash and application/futuresplash
[03:44] <phiber_optic> ?
[03:44] <Droit> pollypocket: What is your problem with firefox?
[03:44] <pike_> pollypocket, if it needs flash 8 youre in trouble unless you run firefox under wine
[03:44] <pollypocket> but this site still says get FLASH
[03:44] <hav0k> phiber_optic, back where?
[03:44] <pollypocket> maybe the site is screwed up
[03:44] <MrParanoia> why does ubuntu need a root partition of 2GB? aren't most of the apps  put in /usr?
[03:44] <phiber_optic> to regular xchat
[03:44] <v1per> pike_, flash 8..?
[03:45] <pollypocket> I was trying to update or install flash to get this site for my daughter
[03:45] <pollypocket> but now I have no idea whats wrong
[03:45] <v1per> MrParanoia lol... all the system files are mounted there@!
[03:45] <TheGame> hey
[03:45] <feedback> Buenassss..
[03:45] <hav0k> um, i did it in the package manager
[03:45] <phiber_optic> ok
[03:45] <pike_> v1per i dont use flash really but was under the impression anything over 7.* was a no go
[03:45] <vedder> Hi :)
[03:45] <Droit> pike_: Is there a problem between flash 8 and linux?
[03:45] <phiber_optic> i hope i dont f*** up my hardrive
[03:46] <TheGame> can some1 tell me about reiser4 support in ubuntu
[03:46] <vedder> Can someone please hlp me? i can't compile anything always the same problem
[03:46] <hav0k> phiber_optic, me too
[03:46] <pollypocket> maybe someone can check this link to tell me if the problem is on my end or with the site   http://pollypocket.everythinggirl.com
[03:46] <pike_> not really familiar with flash issues though
[03:46] <FirstStrike> vedder: be more specific
[03:46] <FirstStrike> what errors are you getting?
[03:46] <TheGame> no1 knows about reiser4?
[03:46] <MrParanoia> v1per> i don't understand your reply - mandriva didn't need a / partition greater than 500 MB
[03:46] <TheGame> or maybe even reiser3\
[03:46] <vedder> i always have dependency problems
[03:47] <FirstStrike> try sudo aptidude install build-essential
[03:47] <phiber_optic> hav0k: after that how can I check my partitions
[03:47] <vedder> i did that
[03:47] <phiber_optic> to see where it installed and stuff like that
[03:47] <vedder> but i always need a dev more
[03:47] <hav0k> phiber_optic, how do you mean check them?
[03:47] <FirstStrike> well, what error are you getting in the terminal?
[03:47] <phiber_optic> like to see what partitions created
[03:47] <TheGame> exit
[03:47] <tyler_d> dvd rom drive problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d20838  ??
[03:47] <v1per> MrParanoia: it's a safety measure.... giving it only 500mb will be kinda annoying, unless you know what you're doing
[03:47] <vedder> and if i thuing that dev is a repo i need other
[03:47] <hav0k> i know in ubuntu you can go to mainmenu>system>admin>disks
[03:48] <FirstStrike> saying 'i have an error' on linux is pretty broad.
[03:48] <FirstStrike> we need the console output to be able to help
[03:48] <vedder> always the same i can't install wwwpack due to a dependency problem...
[03:48] <jjang> how can i use QQ under the OS?
[03:48] <Droit> pollypocket: I tried it, can you click the Enter site button?
[03:48] <MrParanoia> v1per> i guess i'll have to run qtparted and resize the old mandriva partitions to accomodate ubuntu
[03:48] <phiber_optic> why did it ask me what username I wanted
[03:48] <vedder> ok i will try one
[03:48] <phiber_optic> that was weird
[03:48] <Grise1> Pike:  " i normally just sudo mkdir /media/hda1 && sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /media/hda1"  So I can see the contents of FAT32 hda1 in disks manager>file browser, but how do I give Ubuntu and eg Open Office permanent access to this other drive from boot??
[03:49] <hav0k> phiber_optic, probably the username for ubuntu
[03:49] <vedder> is in spanish let try to translate this
[03:49] <phiber_optic> but why>? wouldnt it be su?
[03:49] <jjang> where can i download the lumaqq ang hao should i config it?
[03:49] <vedder> E: Boken package
[03:49] <v1per> MrParanoia, so you're planning to have a small  /  but a big /var  or something?
[03:49] <MrParanoia> yes
[03:49] <vedder> enable to install a pack due to a dependency problem
[03:50] <xarq> is there a utility/tool/application which can record all audio which goes through my system?
[03:50] <vedder> is this case  libsdl1.2-dev
[03:50] <Grise1> Pike:  " i normally just sudo mkdir /media/hda1 && sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /media/hda1"  So I can see the contents of FAT32 hda1 in disks manager>file browser, but how do I give Ubuntu and eg Open Office permanent access to this other drive from boot??
[03:50] <vedder> i hace all my repos enable
[03:50] <FirstStrike> oh, you're trying to apt-get the dev package?
[03:50] <vedder> yep
[03:50] <FirstStrike> are you on dapper?
[03:50] <v1per> Grise1, "from boot" means "upon bootup? or...?"
[03:51] <Grise1> Yes
[03:51] <feedback> alguien que hable espaol ?
[03:51] <v1per> Grisel: that's where /etc/fstab comes in...
[03:51] <vedder> yeah
[03:51] <eternaljoy> how can I listen to streaming radio from Dapper?
[03:51] <v1per> Grisel: aka my earlier comment
[03:51] <vedder> 6.06 updated
[03:51] <MrParanoia> v1per> yep
[03:51] <mcrandello> Hi does anyone know the exact version of madwifi that dapper uses by default?
[03:51] <eternaljoy> doesnt work in Dapper >http://www.fm1032.com.au/ListenLive.asp
[03:51] <Droit> pollypocket: Works for me but i have Shockwave Flash 8.0 r22 as a plugin on Firefox on Win XP
[03:51] <Grise1> Yes, I followed the directions for changing fstab, but doesn't work
[03:51] <vedder> this problem is from always
[03:51] <v1per> MrParanoia, ah, i saw your answer, but i'm not sure how you should proceed..
[03:51] <vedder> i never never compile something in dapper
[03:52] <vedder> is killing me this problem
[03:52] <FirstStrike> download the source code for the dev package and compile it
[03:52] <eternaljoy> how can I listen to streaming radio websites?
[03:52] <kit^> v1per: trying to install this piece of software and it says do ./configure which i did, then it says run a make command and when i do i get an error message saying No make file found or targets specified :S
[03:52] <hav0k> phiber_optic,  you automatically start a user account when you install
[03:52] <sniff_> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[03:52] <hav0k> phiber_optic, atleast it made me make one when i installed
[03:52] <kitty_> so, i tried to use edgy, and now i'm royally screwed.  Can someone help me?
[03:52] <cl187> sup
[03:52] <cl187> i got a question
[03:52] <FirstStrike> edgy is pretty broke at the moment (libc for example)
[03:52] <tyler_d> where is my mounting folder so I may view/compare it for my dvd problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d20838
[03:52] <FirstStrike> i hope you didn't replace your previous install kitty_
[03:52] <kitty_> So how can i fix it?
[03:52] <cl187> can i use another pack installers beside Adept
[03:52] <MrParanoia> i didn't like ubuntu trying to install itself on my largest partition (/home) either - i'm glad i was paying attention
[03:53] <vedder> i will try but for sure i will have a problem because i don't have other dev to compile that dev
[03:53] <v1per> kit^, yea...compiling can tick me off sometimes... you need to check your dependencies..and also did the ./configure go smoothly? no errors?
[03:53] <xarq> vedder: what is "dev" to you?
[03:53] <Elephant> I have a little partitioning problem
[03:53] <jjang> Who can tell  me  hao cai i use QQ in the system ?
[03:53] <FirstStrike> vedder: you should be able to google the libs/packages you need to satisfy the dependencies
[03:53] <xarq> !build-essential
[03:53] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:53] <vedder> yes fire i do that
[03:53] <Grise1> vlper:  I tried following the steps to change fstab at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions more than once, and get "no mount point" and other error messages...
[03:53] <kitty_> please help
[03:53] <FirstStrike> kitty_: well, what problem are you having? we need more than "edgy is broke"
[03:54] <v1per> Grisel: how about _my_ response
[03:54] <vedder> when i found one and i need another,,i found that and i need oter..
[03:54] <eternaljoy> how can I listen to streaming radio websites?
[03:54] <vedder> this don't have end
[03:54] <kit^> v1per: what you mean dependencies, i ddint get any errtors in the ./confifure
[03:54] <kitty_> it brings up a bunch of stuff about how dependencies are not able to be found, and packages are broken
[03:54] <Elephant> I have two drives.  Ubuntu is installed on the smaller one, and I want to use the larger one for /home and /var
[03:54] <v1per>  Grisel: and add a line, or edit a line such as "/dev/hda1       /mnt/share      vfat    rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000   0 0"
[03:54] <vedder> sometimes i install 4 o 5 and then i do -f install to fix it but still i don't have good luck
[03:54] <pike_> eternaljoy, alot of people like streamtuner and then streamripper to capture the mp3s
[03:54] <Elephant> problem is, I already have stuff in those directories
[03:54] <kitty_> i've switched my sources.list back to dapper
[03:54] <v1per> Grisel: ...if you want read and write permissions as normal user...
[03:55] <Grise1> Vlper:  your response gives me temporary access, I believe, in browse, but Open Office doesn't see hda1 as far as I can tell
[03:55] <FirstStrike> kitty_: well, that won't help now..you've already upgraded.
[03:55] <Elephant> so I'm not sure how to properly switch them over without losing the contents of those dirs
[03:55] <eternaljoy> pike_: ok! so install streamtuner and then streamripper ? I can then listen to websites radio?
[03:55] <FirstStrike> the only way to downgrade would be to spend about 3 hours manually moving files.
[03:55] <v1per> Grisel: well you didnt say that you did it
[03:55] <kitty_> eh?
[03:55] <v1per> Grisel: i'm not sure where eyou are
[03:55] <FirstStrike> did you install edgy on a separate partition or upgrade an existing dapper to edgy?
[03:55] <Warbo> Can anyone tell me how to get Compiz up? I just installed AIGLX and the forum thread said it will load Compiz at GNOME login, but it didn't
[03:55] <v1per> Grisel: you've created a /mnt/share, or w/e you called it in fstab?
[03:55] <kitty_> upgraded existing dapper
[03:55] <Droit> Is Ubuntu more complicated to install and use then Win XP?
[03:56] <FirstStrike> edgy is -very- broke at the moment and is really not ready for the desktop yet.
[03:56] <Warbo> Droit: Depends on what you use it for
[03:56] <Grise1> Plke, I will try that in fstab, believe I have to reboot for it to take effect , no??
[03:56] <nba> gud morning
[03:56] <FirstStrike> your best bet is a format and go back to dapper at this point
[03:56] <kitty_> -_-
[03:56] <FirstStrike> install edgy on a separate partition
[03:56] <kitty_> i can't format >.<
[03:56] <pike_> eternaljoy, streamtuner is kind of a front end for loading the streams and it plays them in xmms but if you want to click from browser maybe install mozilla-mplayer..
[03:56] <nba> need help pls
[03:56] <v1per> Grise1, and please spell my name right!!! the second char is  a ONE, as I _mentioned_ earlier
[03:56] <FirstStrike> it's all over the edgy forums to NOT replace your existing install
[03:56] <kitty_> i never look at linux forums ;-;
[03:56] <FirstStrike> there's many threads warning people to install in a separate partition
[03:56] <Droit> Warbo: Games, pictures, songs, internet surfing, IM, Online gaming
[03:56] <FirstStrike> and look where that got you :)
[03:57] <mcrandello> gah, stupid atheros
[03:57] <Mewshi> there
[03:57] <Mewshi> ^_^
[03:57] <Warbo> Droit: Everything apart from gaming is easier in Ubuntu I would say
[03:57] <v1per> Grisel: talk to me... what did you put in fstab...
[03:57] <kit^> v1per: do excuse my spelling in my last message
[03:57] <nba> how to delete locked files
[03:57] <Grise1> vlper, will try that with fstab and back up, but believe I have to reboot
[03:57] <hav0k> hey v1per, i decided to try to install kiba-dock instead... and i downloaded the tar.gz and unpacked it, ran make and then make install and i got an error about "cannot stat 'dock': No such file or directory"
[03:57] <FirstStrike> well, i had a difficult time with it but i managed to get saga of ryzom running 100%
[03:57] <FirstStrike> including sound
[03:57] <Mewshi> well, um... is there a way I can get back to dapper?
[03:57] <Droit> Does Ubuntu come with complete security software?
[03:57] <FirstStrike> the new 2.6.17 kernel fixes it
[03:57] <Warbo> nba: "locked" probably means you don't have permission to access them. "sudo chmod 777 filename" will fix that
[03:58] <nba> warbo: how will i go through
[03:58] <v1per> hav0k: usually you should do "sudo make install"
[03:58] <Grise1> vlper: what I put in fstab all the other times is /dev/xxxx       /media/xxxx     vfat umask=000 0 0
[03:58] <Droit> Most games i have are platform independant except for Diablo II LOD and Dungeon Siege
[03:58] <Warbo> nba: Hm?
[03:58] <hav0k> v1per, oh, okay, ill try that
[03:58] <v1per> hav0k: or are you root
[03:58] <hav0k> but wait, im roor v1per
[03:58] <nba> warbo: wats the first step
[03:58] <v1per> hav0k: but the error is vague..
[03:58] <hav0k> yeah, im root
[03:59] <nba> warbo: do i have to go to terminal first?
[03:59] <Warbo> Droit: If I remember correctly Diablo works in WINE, I am not sure if Diablo 2 does though (this was a while ago)
[03:59] <nba> warbo: im not familiar with this thats why
[03:59] <kit^> right i think i must call it a night
[03:59] <FirstStrike> Mewshi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=212526

[03:59] <hav0k> yeah, well, there were some errors when i did just make
[03:59] <vedder> I can't believe i need this libglu1-mesa-dev i found it in ubuntu pzc
[03:59] <v1per> kit^, dependies, as what's required
[03:59] <slon`> Hello
[03:59] <kit^> thank you very much for your help
[03:59] <nba> ok, i'll try that
[03:59] <vedder> but i can't install because i nedd this oone libglu1-mesa
[03:59] <nba> thanks a lot
[03:59] <Mewshi> Ok
[03:59] <Mewshi> well
[03:59] <kit^> v1per: ah yes thats what i was installing earlier in the /usr/share
[03:59] <vedder> but i can't install this because i have a uptaded version?
[04:00] <v1per> kit^, you have to make sure you've installed all requirements if you're compiling from source
[04:00] <nba> i'll just get back if there's problem still
[04:00] <Droit> Warbo: Since Dungeon Siege is a Microsoft game, i'm pretty sure it won't work with Wine. It barely works with Win XP
[04:00] <tyler_d> could someone please help me with my dvd-rw mounting issue... error in pastbin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d20838
[04:00] <Mewshi> first off, I don't have any GUI web browser at the moment
[04:00] <v1per> kit^, compiling from source can be tough =/
[04:00] <hav0k> v1per, there were lots of errors when i did just make
[04:00] <Warbo> nba: That command will ask for your regular user password (it won't display as you type for security reasons). After that anybody can do anything to the file (ie. delete it)
[04:00] <Mewshi> and apparently, the only thing keeping it from going is OpenOffice.org
[04:00] <v1per> hav0k, ah, of course make install won't work then

[04:01] <v1per> Grise1, plus, the text doesnt turn red if you don't spell it right
[04:01] <Mewshi> i think if i can get over this openoffice problem i can go back to dapper
[04:01] <Warbo> AshDragonScale: I don't know if it would be easy to do, since there is only a discussion page about it at the moment. I have been trying to do it since Flight 4
[04:01] <nba> warbo: ok thanks for the info
[04:02] <v1per> Grisel: ok... so it's on /media/xxx
[04:02] <feedback> oswlado ?
[04:02] <acidfk> Hi  die die my darling :.......
[04:02] <Grise1> vee ell pee eee rrr
[04:02] <AshDragonScale> Warbo: so i have none now... just reinstall to get the old one back?
[04:02] <v1per> Grisel: ONE for god's sake ONE
[04:02] <acidfk> guasop feddback
[04:02] <Warbo> Does anyone know what I need to put in ~/.gnomerc to load Compiz for AIGLX? I am following the forum thread linked from the help.ubuntu.com page
[04:02] <v1per> Grisel: i told you countless times
[04:02] <cl187> acidfk: ....
[04:02] <Grise1> okay...
[04:02] <Mewshi> er -_-
[04:02] <v1per> Grisel: lol
[04:02] <acidfk> Grisel  how r u
[04:02] <feedback> jajaja Aki.. xD.. parlando y viendo esto
[04:02] <acidfk> cl187  digame ?
[04:02] <Mewshi> firststrike, how do i accept files in irssi?
[04:02] <Warbo> AshDragonScale: If there is an update-alternatives involved then you could maybe just "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash" (or similar)
[04:03] <v1per> Grisel: v ONE p e r
[04:03] <due> Mewshi: /dcc get
[04:03] <Mewshi> ok, what do i do with that?
[04:03] <v1per> Grisel: ok.. back to business... after editing fstab, you can just type "sudo mount /media/<name>"
[04:03] <FirstStrike> it's not guaranteed to work by any means Mewshi
[04:03] <vedder> please how can i install a pack who have a depndency problem because they need a old version of a installed pack?
[04:03] <FirstStrike> at this point you're probably going to have to reinstall
[04:04] <FirstStrike> a downgrade is not recommended by any means
[04:04] <acidfk> .... try -force
[04:04] <Grise1> v1per, sorry I am a noob to this, but really trying for days just to simply look at my files from Win98.  I want to abandon Windows 98 and then my XP pro wireless dsl system for Linux but it is  d a m n   h a r d  !!
[04:04] <v1per> Grisel: you cant just follow my directions once, then abandon and go to some site
[04:04] <v1per> mixing directions all over
[04:04] <mickskyvitch> being dense here, how do I chnage directory to desktp I know it is cd but what else please ?
[04:04] <vedder> :(
[04:04] <v1per> ll
[04:05] <Mewshi> ok
[04:05] <Warbo> v1per: Are you trying to be ironic here? Considering that you put lowercase L in Grise1's name?
[04:05] <v1per> Grisel: you have to update me on your actions
[04:05] <Mewshi> er -_-
[04:05] <FirstStrike> cd /home/user/Desktop
[04:05] <Mewshi> are there any terminal dvd-burning programs in linux?
[04:05] <eegore> is there 3D DESKTOP YET
[04:05] <mickskyvitch> ty FirstStrike
[04:05] <v1per> lol Warbo
[04:05] <FirstStrike> Grise1: you're just trying to mount a FAT partition right?
[04:05] <nba> warbo: the path is /home/nba/desktop/03.asin
[04:05] <Warbo> !info 3ddesktop
[04:05] <ubotu> 3ddesktop: "Three-dimensional" desktop switcher. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.9-5.1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 74 kB, installed size 448 kB
[04:06] <kit^> cheers v1per and hav0k nice chatting catch you around soon
[04:06] <thedcm> !pastebin
[04:06] <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)
[04:06] <nba> warbo: but i was denied
[04:06] <Grise1> v1per:  I will print out this conversation, go and try some stuff and come back.  Linux is NOT as easy as the documentation and the Ubuntu sites make it look.  Why cant a sane intelligent person see the FAT32 contents on the other drive?? everything else works  :-(
[04:06] <v1per> Warbo: er.. i've typed Grise1 's name so many times, sometimes tab, and sometimes by hand, that the "l" came out
[04:06] <mickskyvitch> thanks again First Strike :)
[04:06] <Warbo> nba: If you use "sudo" then it shouldn't be. Also, the standard desktop folder is called "Desktop" not "desktop" (Linux is case sensitive)
[04:06] <v1per> Grise1, really, all it takes is an examination of how to change /etc/fstab
[04:07] <nba> warbo: i wrote this way: sudo chmod 777 <filename>
[04:07] <nba> warbo: is that the way it should be?
[04:07] <FirstStrike> Grise1: check out http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#
[04:07] <Warbo> nba: "sudo chmod 777 /home/nba/desktop/03.asin" < like that?
[04:07] <Warbo> AA! wait
[04:07] <v1per> Grise1, ok, quick summary then... after changing /etc/fstab , you need to "sudo mount /media/<name>"
[04:07] <Grise1> I just want to "permanently" get access to FAT32 at hda1 so that I can abandon Win98 on this box and use Ubuntu, and have access to all the files every time I boot without having to go through mount processes.  Sorry, I have been at this for some days.
[04:07] <nagyv> Where could I get an automake>=1.6.1? apt-get gives me version 1.4-p6
[04:07] <Warbo> "sudo chmod 777 /home/nba/Desktop/03.asin" < like that?
[04:07] <Mewshi> -_-
[04:08] <nba> ok, i'll try again
[04:08] <v1per> Grise1, what is the name under media... you're barely telling me anything!
[04:08] <nba> uhh, the desktop maybe, thats the problem
[04:08] <nba> i wrote it in lowercase
[04:08] <nba> ok i'll try again, thnaks
[04:08] <FirstStrike> Grise1: go to the step " How to mount Windows partitions (FAT) on boot-up, and allow all users to read/write "
[04:08] <FirstStrike> on the page i linked too
[04:08] <FirstStrike> it's really easy
[04:08] <FirstStrike> when you're adding the lines in the fstab use tab instead of the space key
[04:08] <Warbo> nba: You don't have to type the full name if you are in the same folder, so you could do "cd Desktop" then "sudo chmod 777 03.asin"
[04:09] <Mewshi> dammit >.<
[04:09] <v1per> yes, listen to FirstStrike if it's easier
[04:09] <nba> i see, ok
[04:09] <v1per> although i've basically given the solution twice already
[04:09] <Grise1> v1per:  right now, under disks manager its media/hda1 (after I typed in the sudo command you originally gave me)
[04:09] <nba> thanks for the tip
[04:09] <Warbo> !cli
[04:09] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[04:09] <Mewshi> ok
[04:09] <FirstStrike> I think Grise1 is just refusing to read.
[04:09] <tyler_d> cannot unmount my ipod even though it is not connected?
[04:10] <Mewshi> are there any good cli dvd/cd burning softwares?
[04:10] <FirstStrike> tyler_d: connect it and try unmounting it
[04:10] <Grise1> I will read off line-- too hard to type and read at the same time.  Tks folks...
[04:10] <FirstStrike> or try a -f
[04:10] <v1per> Grisel: in fstab, the first two columns.... for example "/dev/hda1   /media/windows"
[04:10] <q_x> bgrwvfdbvgts
[04:10] <v1per> i mean Grise1*  sry
[04:10] <Warbo> Oops, I just ran Compiz without it's window decorator mode. I hope I can switch to a terminal
[04:10] <Grise1> vlper:  I'm following
[04:10] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: could this be why I am getting a mounting error on my dvd burner?
[04:10] <BlueEagle> Do you guys recomend twinview or xinerama on a nVidia card?
[04:10] <FirstStrike> possibly
[04:10] <Mewshi> why am i being ignored?
[04:10] <rubyphyte> Is it as safe to run a server on the desktop as it is on the server version of ubuntu?
[04:11] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: how do I force it to unmount?
[04:11] <FirstStrike> sometimes if you disconnect something usb without unmounting it the os thinks it's still there
[04:11] <v1per> Grise1, ok, in my example, afterwards you would do "sudo mount /media/windows"
[04:11] <FirstStrike> sudo umount -f /blah/blah
[04:11] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: ahhhh... k I will try that
[04:11] <BlueEagle> mewshi: You're not. But if you want to send /msg then you need to register with nickserv. It's a spam prevention measure.
[04:11] <v1per> Grise1, at this point you could access it
[04:11] <Mewshi> no, i mean
[04:11] <Grise1> ThankQ bye
[04:11] <FirstStrike> v1per: after he's done editing the fstab all he has to do is sudo mount -a
[04:11] <FirstStrike> and it should work
[04:11] <q_x> adada
[04:11] <BlueEagle> mewshi: also if people don't answer your questions then perhaps noone knows the solution. :)
[04:11] <Mewshi> i've been asking if there are any cli cd/dvd burning programs, and no one's answering
[04:11] <v1per> FirstStrike, w/e
[04:12] <nba> warbo: what's the command for display of files
[04:12] <Warbo> Since they are part of Xorg I am correct in assuming that DRI drivers support AIGLX, right?
[04:12] <Warbo> nba: "ls"
[04:12] <v1per> FirstStrike, same difference
[04:12] <Warbo> nba: Check out the link ubotu gave when I typed "!cli" above
[04:12] <Mewshi> hello?
[04:12] <v1per> lol, FirstStrike ... and he's gone
[04:12] <nba> warbo: but it says 'no such file or directory'
[04:12] <BlueEagle> mewshi: It's called cdrecord
[04:12] <v1per> LOL
[04:13] <nba> warbo: but it still there, the file
[04:13] <FirstStrike> yea
[04:13] <Warbo> Mewshi: I don't know of any, and apparently neither does anyone else. However, we didn't want to say "no" in case there is one that we do not know about
[04:13] <v1per> i might go crazy
[04:13] <nba> warbo: i just want to delete it
[04:13] <BlueEagle> mewshi: and I'm reading log to check on your question. What do you mean "back to dapper"? Have you upgraded to edgy by mistake?
[04:13] <FirstStrike> Mewshi: type 'cdrecord' in the console
[04:13] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: not found when I try umount?
[04:13] <Warbo> nba: That command lets anyone delete it, so try deleting it normally now
[04:13] <Mewshi> it wasn't a mistake really... i wanted to see it... and now i'm fucked >.<
[04:14] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: but in my media dir typed it the same as it shows
[04:14] <Warbo> !language > Mewshi
[04:14] <Mewshi> Sorry >.<
[04:14] <soop> anyone know anything about bind?
[04:14] <FirstStrike> tyler_d: you connected it? try mounting it and unmounting it
[04:14] <Mewshi> now i'm screwed
[04:14] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: mounted fine
[04:14] <digitallotus> soop, what about it?
[04:14] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: won't unmount
[04:14] <FirstStrike> that's why it's important to do your research before you install Mewshi
[04:14] <FirstStrike> read the forums next time.
[04:14] <FirstStrike> there's warnings all over the place
[04:15] <BlueEagle> mewshi: No worries. However reverting from edgy to dapper isn't very easy. I'd recomend re-installing dapper from a cd. (I might be wrong tho and there might be a script to revert but I don't think there is)
[04:15] <FirstStrike> there's no script
[04:15] <Mewshi> hm
[04:15] <Noah0504> What the easiest way to upgrade to Edgy to test it out?
[04:15] <Warbo> Anyone know what "libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual <insert obscure string here>" means? I get loads of them when using a GL app (in AIGLX)
[04:15] <soop> ditallotus: when i run named, it loads my localhost zone then doesn't load any other zones
[04:15] <FirstStrike> you have to do it all manually
[04:15] <soop> digtallotus: this is my named.conf http://pastebin.ca/135585
[04:15] <Mewshi> All i need to do is make it stop having problems with openoffice >.<
[04:15] <FirstStrike> tyler_d: hmm..reboot and try again. i've had that issue with my pda in the past.
[04:15] <Mewshi> that's the only problem right now >.<
[04:15] <tyler_d> ok
[04:15] <Warbo> Mewshi: I use Abiword, if it's any help
[04:16] <soop> digitallotus: when i run named, it loads my localhost zone then doesn't load any other zones
[04:16] <Mewshi> -_-
[04:16] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: ty I will be back if there are further issues
[04:16] <FirstStrike> ok
[04:16] <Mewshi> it's going nuts because it can't find all the dependencies for oo.o
[04:16] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: quick question, how do I resume a torrent after closing the program?
[04:16] <FirstStrike> which program?
[04:16] <Mau> hi people! how can i discover my ip number?
[04:16] <Warbo> tyler_d: Double click the .torrent file again
[04:16] <Noah0504> Mau: ipchicken.com works.
[04:16] <ax> so, there is no alsaconf in dapper that i can find, how does one set up their soundcard?
[04:16] <Number_5> mau ifconfig
[04:16] <FirstStrike> http://whatismyip.com
[04:16] <FirstStrike> :P
[04:16] <Number_5> lol
[04:17] <vedder> this is the kernel i am using linux-image-2.6.15-26-386 i need the headers to compile  should i have to download this Linux kernel headers 2.6.15 or this pack is enough Linux Kernel Headers
[04:17] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: dirty little one.... only 3 tabs.. stable though
[04:17] <nixternal> hey guys!   anyone in here know how to install MythTV?   I have someone messaging me that needs help installing it..if you can help let me know please...thank you
[04:17] <digitallotus> soop, any errors in the log? also, does /var/named/primary/soop.ca.hosts exist?
[04:17] <Mau> Number_5, is there anyproblem in type this command? not dungerous?
[04:17] <phaedrus44> what is the repo for the w32codecs?
[04:17] <FirstStrike> uhh well some of the clients will automatically restart them when you start the client back up tyler
[04:17] <BlueEagle> ax:  alsactl and or alsamixer?
[04:17] <FirstStrike> but otherwise just open the torrent and save it to the same directory as before
[04:17] <tyler_d> FirstStrike: k, brb
[04:17] <FirstStrike> and it'll resume it
[04:17] <BlueEagle> ax: What do you mean by "set up"?
[04:17] <tyler_d> FirstStrike ty
[04:18] <bit_doidao> Mau, only ifconfig shows the network interfaces  :)
[04:18] <soop> digital: no errors,  ... loades zone localhost/in spits out its erial number then the next line in the log is "running"
[04:18] <_priest> anyone know where to find the source for skey?
[04:18] <soop> its like it's ignoring the soop.ca section of my zone file completely
[04:18] <Number_5> mau that'll just show your lan ip if you want your wan ip you should use ipchicken.com
[04:18] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell phaedrus44 about easysource
[04:18] <_priest> i can only find pam_skey i need the actual binary for one time passwords
[04:18] <vedder> is not my lucky day....:(
[04:18] <vedder> by and thank for the help!
[04:18] <vedder> bye*
[04:18] <Mau> thanks
[04:18] <ax> BlueEagle: well, sometimes there are special settings for soundcards, alsaconf used to set those up for me
[04:18] <ax> i have a delta66 and it worked great before i installed ubuntu
[04:19] <FirstStrike> you guys should all have http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper# bookmarked.

[04:19] <Bogaurd> I'm having some trouble with CUPS - i've installed and got cups working correctly, i can print test pages from the web interface, but when i try to print something using 'lpr' or via samba, nothing happens... the job goes into the 'lpq' queue, but doesnt show up in the CUPS joblist, and doesnt print. Any ideas?
[04:19] <nba> warbo: it still not working, i can't delete the file still
[04:20] <nba> warbo: it says '03.ASIN' : No such file or directory
[04:20] <Number_5> Bogaurd: i had this problem and it was because i didn't set up both the cups server and the client i believe...been a while
[04:21] <Bogaurd> Number_5: hmm.
[04:21] <soop> digitallotus: no errors,  ... loades zone localhost/in spits out its erial number then the next line in the log is "running"
[04:21] <nba> warbo: it says cannot access '03.ASIN' : No such file or directory
[04:21] <Bogaurd> Number_5: so you reckon i should install cupsys-client or something like that?
[04:21] <foo> I just formatted this drive but the numbers don't make sense: df -h says: /dev/sda1             187G  129M  178G   1% /mnt/sda ... any ideas ? 129M used on a 187G drive doesn't equal 178G .. .and this drive is a 200GB drive.
[04:21] <nba> maybe im not doing it right
[04:21] <digitallotus> soop, interesting... normally it would give a message about loading the zone or an error
[04:22] <Bogaurd> foo: ext2/3 reserves some of the drive space
[04:22] <tyler_d> after reboot, cannot mount my dvd-rw drive... error posted http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d20838
[04:22] <Bogaurd> i do believe
[04:22] <foo> Bogaurd: That's what I thought... so, it makes sense that it reserves 20G drive space/ HM
[04:22] <soop> digtallotus: well exactly, it's just supposed to work, i've retyped the conf file a few times now hoping for a typo but nothing
[04:23] <Necho> is there a newb channel?
[04:23] <tylere> Is sound recording broken in 6.06? I can hear the input, I have the mixer setup properly, but I cannot get audacity to record. I've googled this and seems lots of other people are having the same issue
[04:23] <nagyv> tyler_d: did you tried to mount it manually?
[04:23] <Bogaurd> foo: well, it's not reserving 20GB... a 200gb is not really 200GB.
[04:24] <foo> Bogaurd: Ok, so my numbers sound good ? I did the cfdisk and mkfs.ext3 correctly?
[04:24] <Number_5> tyler_d: in fstab is /dev/hdc type iso9660?
[04:24] <Bogaurd> foo: if you assume that 1kb is 1000 bytes, then yes, it is 200gb. 1kb is really 1024 bytes though
[04:24] <BlueEagle> foo: df isn't exact by any means.
[04:24] <Sethwm2> Hello
[04:24] <Number_5> tyler_d: or udf?
[04:24] <BlueEagle> thedcm: Why?
[04:24] <Bogaurd> let me tell you chat my 200gb drive comes up as
[04:24] <thedcm> BlueEagle: hi
[04:24] <foo> BlueEagle: alright, but you think my numbers sound somewhat like they should be?
[04:25] <Bogaurd> foo: mine comes up as 186GB, unformatted
[04:25] <Sethwm2> Hello I was wondering if I install Ubuntu it will automaticly reconize my RAID drives??
[04:25] <foo> Bogaurd: ok, so ext3 is reserving 8GB ,,,right?
[04:25] <Bogaurd> i think ext2/3 reserves about 5% by default... so ~178gb sounds about right to me
[04:25] <_priest> Sethwm2: hardware or software raid

[04:28] <Number_5> tyler_d: should mount a dvd then...or is it a cdrom you are trying to mount?
[04:29] <Sethwm2> The only reasion I came here
[04:29] <Sethwm2> is becuase
[04:29] <Sethwm2> I could not find it on Google
[04:29] <GNULinuxGeek> imBrandon did look there and can't seem to get it loaded.  I originally load ubuntu but then added KDE.  That might be part of the problem.
[04:29] <_priest> Sethwm2: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_software_raid
[04:29] <_priest> Sethwm2: that should get you started
[04:29] <Number_5> tyler_d: try change it to udf,iso9660
[04:29] <tyler_d> Number_5: dvd
[04:29] <Ricesteam> How do i fix the Azureus warning pop-ups from not closing?
[04:29] <RawSewage> nm   http://jadmadi.net/2006/06/22/ubuntu-howto-converting-flv-to-mpg/
[04:29] <Number_5> tyler_d: oh well its probably not that then
[04:29] <imbrandon> GNULinuxGeek: please dont cross post, we were helping you in #kubuntu
[04:29] <nba> anybody home?
[04:29] <_priest> Sethwm2: but mdadm is going to be the tool you need for software raid
[04:30] <Sethwm2> Why can it not do hardware??
[04:30] <sethk> it can do hardware
[04:30] <_priest> Sethwm2: b/c you are using a cheap raid controller
[04:30] <sethk> of course
[04:30] <Sethwm2> How?
[04:30] <Necho> Does anyone have experience with getting wireless devices working under ubuntu?
[04:30] <sethk> but real hardware raid looks exactly like a single disk to the o/s
[04:30] <Sethwm2> SiS is popular..
[04:30] <_priest> sethk: he's using a promise raid controller
[04:30] <Jbirk> Ever heard of Slackware?
[04:30] <_priest> it'll just see 2 disks
[04:30] <Sethwm2> Not Promis
[04:30] <Sethwm2> SIS
[04:30] <KenSentMe> Ricesteam: i heard today that it's a known bug, i don't know if theres a solution, but people are working on it
[04:30] <sethk> _priest, right, that isn't really raid.  :)
[04:30] <_priest> oh SIS
[04:31] <_priest> Sethwm2: it'll still see 2 disks :)
[04:31] <sethk> Sethwm2, that's just an ide controller, not really raid
[04:31] <_priest> sethk: its not raid at all :)
[04:31] <Sethwm2> The motherboard has a RAID controler on it
[04:31] <sethk> _priest, yes, I forget what loophole allows them to put raid on the box
[04:31] <pike_> Necho, first thing type uname -r in a terminal then install the linux-restricted-modules-kernelversion you have
[04:31] <Sethwm2> And it is set to RAID 0
[04:31] <Ricesteam> thanks
[04:31] <Necho> I have a Linksys WUSB54G wireless USB adapter, I'm almost certain that it should work, but I don't know how to get it working.
[04:31] <_priest> sethk: ah i haven't heard of a solid way for them to do it with those cheap controllers
[04:32] <_priest> sethk: plus i think software raid is a much better option these days
[04:32] <sethk> _priest, about software raid I completely disagree
[04:32] <sethk> _priest, software raid is basically useless
[04:32] <Sethwm2> I am a noob at Ubuntu and Linux...
[04:32] <Sethwm2> SO I need it to do it in the Installer
[04:32] <Sethwm2> GUI
[04:32] <_priest> sethk: how do you figure?
[04:32] <johnnyg> am I in the wrong plcae to ask about importing .eml files gotten from YahooMail export into Thunderbird?
[04:33] <sethk> _priest, because the most common problems that raid can handle are not handled with software raid.
[04:33] <nba> does anybody know "how to access locked files" coz i want to move it
[04:33] <nba> but i don't have permission it says
[04:33] <sethk> _priest, plus, once you have a failure, what then?  How do you ever get back into a redundant situation?
[04:33] <_priest> sethk: ive never come across a problem that software raid couldnt handle
[04:33] <_priest> sethk: you just take the bad disk out and put a new one in
[04:33] <pike_> nba, preface the command with sudo
[04:33] <_priest> sethk: mdadm will take care of the rest
[04:33] <mainer> try sudo <command> or sudo su
[04:33] <Necho> Hey pike_, thanks for replying but I'm not sure what that means? I'm a newb with Linux. I'm not on Ubuntu right now, I uninstalled it a while back because I was having the same problem a few months ago, but I'm trying to have another go at it...
[04:34] <Sethwm2> How do I install mdadm??
[04:34] <sethk> _priest, the machine has to be completely inert for the software to image a new drive.
[04:34] <nba> pike_ i did that but it says "cannot access...: no such file or directory
[04:34] <Sethwm2> How do I turn it on
[04:34] <Sethwm2> ?
[04:34] <_priest> sethk: when you boot the system with a new non faulty drive mdadm will recover it before the system starts
[04:34] <pike_> Necho, copy and paste this into a terminal dont type it: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[04:34] <sethk> nba, use sudo
[04:34] <_priest> sethk: thats the whole purpose of it
[04:34] <sethk> _priest, yes, of course, but that isn't real raid
[04:35] <Number_5> Sethwm2: sudo apt-get install mdadm
[04:35] <sethk> _priest, the whole point of raid is that you eliminate the down time
[04:35] <nba> sethk: i just did but nothing work
[04:35] <_priest> sethk: what downtime?
[04:35] <nba> still can't access
[04:35] <Sethwm2> OIC
[04:35] <Sethwm2> Thanks
[04:35] <sethk> nba, then it didn't fail because of permissions
[04:35] <_priest> sethk: in a raid 1 setup it'll mirror while the system is running normally
[04:35] <sethk> _priest, the down time when you restart the machine and, as you noted, the software images the new drive
[04:35] <nba> sethk: what shud i do then
[04:35] <Number_5> nba: what file is it...it's probably in use
[04:35] <Sethwm2> Thanks
[04:35] <Sethwm2> Taking notes
[04:36] <_priest> sethk: well yea other than using hot swappable drives
[04:36] <sethk> nba, start by giving us the exact error
[04:36] <nba> Number_5: it's in my Desktop
[04:36] <pike_> Necho, or open synaptic (the add remove programs) and search for the package restricted-modules you want the one that matches your kernel version (which you get by typing uname -r in a terminal and hitting enter)
[04:36] <Number_5> nba: do you have it open somewhere?
[04:36] <sethk> _priest, right, hot swappable is what raid is all about, or at least what it used to be about before somebody came up with "software raid"
[04:36] <_priest> sethk: but if you are just a 1 person band nothing beats software raid :)
[04:36] <Necho> I'm in Windows right now, see I can't get on the internet and thus IRC at all with this comp without wireless, that's the biggest problem. If there are directions I can print them out or something, and see if they work, but remember I won't be online so if it needs to download anything... it can't. Is what I'm asking possible?
[04:36] <Sethwm2> So I install linux on one of the drives then sudo apt-get install mdadm and it will do it all by itself??
[04:36] <nba> sethk: i type Desktop
[04:36] <_priest> sethk: well yea true hardware raid is superior
[04:36] <ciscosurfer> Edgy's expected release date?
[04:37] <sethk> _priest, ok, I'll agree, in many situations osftware raid is useful.
[04:37] <_priest> sethk: but people want more for their dollar
[04:37] <Necho> I can transfer whateve rI need to another drive or soemthing, of course
[04:37] <Lane>  /join #mepis
[04:37] <nba> sethk: type sudo chmod 777 03. ASIN
[04:37] <sethk> _priest, depends on what you actually need, whether the cost is justified for your situation.
[04:37] <_priest> sethk: the only places i see hardware raid absolutely necessary would be like trading companies
[04:37] <_priest> banks
[04:37] <_priest> etc
[04:37] <sethk> nba, what is that?  type sudo chmod 777 03.  ASIN?
[04:38] <sethk> _priest, yes, that's the stuff I typically deal with.
[04:38] <nba> sethk:  error says "cannot access '03.ASIN': No such file or directory
[04:38] <_priest> sethk: but you have to admit most mom and pop shops that using linux will go with software raid
[04:38] <_priest> sethk: that still makes up 40% of the linux market
[04:38] <nba> sethk:  03. ASIN is the file name i want to move
[04:38] <sethk> nba, probably the file is not in the current directory.  try using the full path name
[04:38] <Number_5> nba: does it have a space in it?
[04:39] <nba> yes Number_5
[04:39] <sethk> nba, also, to handle what Number_5 is asking, use tab completion
[04:39] <Number_5> nba: proceed spaces with \
[04:39] <sethk> nba, that will get the backslash where it is needed
[04:39] <Number_5> nba sethk is right use tab for autocomplete
[04:39] <nba> ok i'll try it guys
[04:40] <sethk> Number_5, typing backslash is right also, but for noobs the tab completion is sometimes easier to deal with  :)
[04:40] <bkudria> can the ubuntu dapper livecd resize ntfs partitions? how?
[04:40] <Number_5> exactly
[04:40] <Number_5> sethk: i caught onto that ...i'm new here hehe
[04:40] <Necho> I should have a spare NIC around here, so I'll try getting this working tomorrow hopefully that will make it easier...
[04:40] <Jbirk> How can I get rid of the Ubuntu splash screen?
[04:40] <Jbirk> I want to see linux boot
[04:40] <chatterman> man this wireless configuration is driving nuts, makes me want to go back to windows :(
[04:41] <Jbirk> as in plain text flying by
[04:41] <Jbirk> Chatterman, I had that problem on a dell notebook
[04:41] <Jbirk> My solution was to replace my wireless card with a different one
[04:41] <chatterman> same with compaq
[04:41] <Jbirk> I picked one up on ebay for $7 and $8 to ship it
[04:41] <Jbirk> works great
[04:42] <chatterman> ah on a laptop ?
[04:42] <sethk> laptop nics aren't worth much as all the new laptops have the wireless built in.
[04:42] <Necho> What are the best wireless adapters for Linux?
[04:43] <sethk> Necho, best reference for that is the kernel configuration.  show the list of supported NICs.  pick one of those.
[04:43] <chatterman> ya i think mine is built in , not sure
[04:43] <Jbirk> I am using an Intel PRO 2200
[04:43] <Jbirk> It is just working great
[04:43] <Jbirk> It plugged and played
[04:43] <Number_5> sethk: do you use the default kernel?
[04:44] <dasGewitter> I need help/information about burning an ISO image
[04:44] <chatterman> i dont want windows anymore, im sick of firewall and antiviruses , that drives me nuts too
[04:44] <nba> sethk: if i use the full path name, does it look like this: /home/nba/Desktop/03. Asin
[04:44] <sethk> Number_5, I rebuild the kernel using the one from kernel.org.  but I work on device drivers, so I'm not a typical user in that respect.
[04:44] <AshDragonScale> Just to let everyone know I found my answer about the Usplash screen in Dapper! Thanks for all your help
[04:44] <Jbirk> Is apt-get upgrade safe?
[04:45] <Number_5> nba: /home/nba/Desktop/03.\ ASIN
[04:45] <sethk> nba, if it is in /home/nba/Desktop, it might.  You keep typing it differently.  last time you type ASIN, this time you typed Asin, and the space, I'm not sure about.
[04:45] <Number_5> nba case sensative
[04:45] <ciscosurfer> Does any know when the expected release date for Edgy is?
[04:45] <justin_> What is the differences between Dapper and the previous versions?, is there a website with the changes listed?
[04:45] <SurfnKid> any 3D rendering software for linux?
[04:45] <sethk> nba, that's why I suggested that you type in the first letter or two and press tab.  let the shell complete the name for you.
[04:45] <Number_5> SurfnKid: blender
[04:45] <sethk> nba, that's less typing, and is guaranteed to be in the correct format for a shell command.
[04:45] <justin_> Surfnkid, I am not sure - but I have heard that poser 5 works under Linux (if that is modelling I have no idea:))
[04:45] <nba> sethk:  ok i'll try it again
[04:45] <croach_> hi
[04:45] <SurfnKid> justin_, yeah
[04:45] <justin_> Well works in Linux - under WINE.
[04:46] <SurfnKid> Number_5, is it in ubuntu?
[04:46] <Jbirk> How do I find out my Ubuntu distro?
[04:46] <sethk> nba, I'm not being critical, just extolling the benefits of tab completion.
[04:46] <Number_5> SurfnKid: sudo apt-get install blender
[04:46] <ciscosurfer> With 810 people here, someone's got to know the answer to this ...
[04:46] <DShepherd> Jbirk: cat /etc/issue.net is one to do it
[04:46] <SurfnKid> Number_5, what kind of stuff can u do with it
[04:46] <chatterman> is there any version of linux that aint a pain with wireless or is it all the same ?
[04:46] <Number_5> SurfnKid: if you know 3dsmax and Maya...bout the same
[04:47] <Jbirk> Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
[04:47] <Jbirk> HOw do I update to the latest?
[04:47] <SurfnKid> Number_5, i know maya a little but 3dsmax not much, i think ill try that :)
[04:47] <dasGewitter> what program should I use to burn an ISO image?
[04:47] <DShepherd> dasGewitter: you running gnome?
[04:47] <dasGewitter> yes
[04:48] <Number_5> chatterman: wireless can be easy in linux....I would help but I followed a guide on the forums and I didn't commit it to memory...
[04:48] <ciscosurfer> Jbirk: in a terminal, type: lsb_release -s -c
[04:48] <SonicvanaJr> Does anyone know the command to restart xserver ?
[04:48] <DShepherd> dasGewitter: right click if and click write ISO.. or osmethinglike that.
[04:48] <Number_5> SonicvanaJr: to restart ctrl alt backspace
[04:48] <chatterman> its cool , im just a bit out of patience
[04:48] <cef> Got a P4 board w/SiS 661FX/SiS 964 (north/south) combo running Dapper (6.06.1), and "reboot"/Ctrl-Alt-Del (calls reboot) doesn't work. Machine "halt"s and powers off ok, but "reboot" goes through shutdown and hangs (have to power off/reset via button). Get a "Restarting system" msg on the screen - that's it. Tried 23-386 and 25-386/686 kernels, no diff. Reset button works. Any suggestions?
[04:48] <Number_5> SonicvanaJr: that'll restart X
[04:48] <DShepherd> dasGewitter: write to disc.. that's it
[04:48] <SonicvanaJr> Hmm then I guess dual monitors with ati dosen't work
[04:48] <SonicvanaJr> :\
[04:49] <DShepherd> dasGewitter: got that?
[04:49] <cef> erm, 26-386/686 even
[04:49] <dasGewitter> right click the file?
[04:49] <croach_> i just installed xgl+compiz in ubuntu 6.06 and now when im trying to start the xgl-gnome it says "Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/,removing from list!....
[04:49] <DShepherd> dasGewitter: right click the iso file and choose the option 'Write to Disc'
[04:49] <dasGewitter> ah
[04:50] <ciscosurfer> Hi Everybody!  When does Edgy come out??
[04:50] <Number_5> sethk: I want to get into writing device drivers someday heh
[04:50] <DShepherd> ciscosurfer: hopefully in october
[04:50] <DShepherd> !edgy

[04:54] <hewhocutsdown> really quick general IRC question; if I'm told 'You need to be identified to join that channel' when I /join, what do I do?
[04:54] <dasGewitter> well
[04:54] <dasGewitter> I told it to extract it in its folder
[04:54] <dasGewitter> After it did so, it said all the folders were empty
[04:55] <dasGewitter> and in any case, it contains no .iso file
[04:55] <AshDragonScale> hewhocutsdown: identify to the network before you /join
[04:55] <pike_> hewhocutsdown, /msg nickserv register password  then whenever you sign back in /msg nickserv identify password
[04:55] <Number_5> dasGewitter: at the command line type sudo rar x filename.rar        change filename to the actual file name
[04:56] <dasGewitter> shouldn't it be sudo rar -x filename.rar?
[04:56] <Number_5> dasGewitter: nah x
[04:56] <shawnna> Hello!  Where can I go to find out how to get x-chat and yahoo messenger together?

[04:57] <adam__> I have the terminal open, what is the command to install wine?
[04:57] <Number_5> nba: cya
[04:58] <AshDragonScale> shawnna: try Gaim... that is what I use. IRC, Yahoo, AIM, MSN, ICQ all of it...
[04:58] <Number_5> adam__: sudo apt-get wine
[04:58] <dasGewitter> it says rar command not found
[04:58] <Number_5> sorry
[04:58] <TheGame> hey
[04:58] <Number_5> adam__: sorry sudo apt-get install wine
[04:58] <dasGewitter> I would I installed a rar extracting program though
[04:58] <TheGame> whats the program to install the splash screen
[04:58] <TheGame> it sits in system settings
[04:58] <pike_> adam__, apt-cache search whatever  find the package you want and sudo apt-get install packagename
[04:58] <dasGewitter> let me check my package manager
[04:58] <shawnna> AshDragonScale: Thanks, I will.
[04:58] <adam__> thanks Number_5, pike_
[04:58] <TheGame> anybody
[04:58] <Comrade-Sergei> rememeber that BSOD sceensaver in hoary and breezy, well is it in the repos somewheres?
[04:58] <hewhocutsdown> it worked, thanks muchly
[04:58] <Number_5> dasGewitter: it maybe in the universe or multiverse repos
[04:59] <dasGewitter> ah
[04:59] <dasGewitter> the archiver for rar
[04:59] <dasGewitter> listed rar under the package manager?
[04:59] <dasGewitter> ....it's shareware...they actually want me to register this?
[05:00] <adam__> Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.  E:  Package wine has no installation candidate.   <-- can anyone further explain this and help?
[05:01] <pike_> adam__, wine is in the universe repository you need to enable it either in synaptic or by sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and removing the # comment in front of any # deb hhtp: and saving changes
[05:01] <pike_> adam__, then sudo apt-get update
[05:01] <jturek> hey any mutt users in here?

[05:06] <harisund> Thanks DShepherd, I was also looking at another software called Ext2IFS .... Supposed to be in beta stage, and allows for writing (seems fine though so far).. I will have a look at your stuff also. Thanks :)
[05:06] <Number_5> amicrawler: in a terminal type sudo nvidia-xconfig
[05:06] <whitt> pike_, what is it rofl
[05:07] <Number_5> amicrawler: if you have installed the driver via apt-get already that is
[05:07] <dasGewitter> david_: Scroll down to the "Utilities" section and double click the "Main Menu" icon, or just select it and click, "Add"
[05:07] <amicrawler> it's is downling
[05:07] <holler> hello, was wondering if anybody could help with this issue involving ubuntu and php, trying to connect to a database on the system and i'm getting this error 'Class 'DB' not found'

[05:08] <pike_> whitt, search for webcam there are two links you want to lookat webcam and hardwaresupport both near the top
[05:08] <workin> <- needs installation help too
[05:08] <Number_5> Indref: what you need
[05:09] <Number_5> well ask your questions :P
[05:09] <pebkac> Number_5: don't suppose you could tell me how to assign key shrotcuts ffor some of the effects (vis., Water)
[05:09] <workin> it goes insanely slow
[05:09] <dasGewitter> david_: hmm, maybe it was, "Menu Bar"
[05:09] <dasGewitter> david_: try that one
[05:09] <Indref> Number_5: I am running windows, I have a windows partition and a files partition.
[05:09] <whitt> pike_, the link didnt work
[05:09] <Number_5> pebkac: water should be shift f9
[05:09] <pebkac> i know i need to open gset-compiz
[05:09] <Indref> Number_5: I want to keep the files, and I want to install Ubuntu.
[05:09] <shawnr_> anyone know how to stop frostwire from sucking up all my resources and freezing everytime i search/dl ?
[05:09] <pebkac> is there a list somewhere or something?
[05:09] <Number_5> shawnr_: it's java based...it's going to happen
[05:09] <Indref> Number_5: Any advice?
[05:10] <workin> <- needs installation help
[05:10] <shawnr_> pebkac, don't use gset-compiz
[05:10] <pike_> whitt, https://wiki.ubuntu.com i know that is up right now
[05:10] <Number_5> pebkac: yeah in gset-compiz
[05:10] <workin> AIM at RPGWORKINPROCESS
[05:10] <Jbirk> how do I turn off my custom linux startup screen?
[05:10] <pebkac> shawnr_: what should i use instead?
[05:10] <workin> or YAHOO AT LLENARD_TWEM
[05:10] <dasGewitter> shawnr_: while there are a lot of problems with frostwire, I hate to be frivolous, but I suggest Limewire
[05:10] <cmpalmer> anybody know how I can get accents on vowels in OpenOffice.org, either with the USA keyboard layout or LAm?
[05:10] <shawnr_> hold on one sec
[05:10] <pebkac> k
[05:10] <Indref> cmpalmer: Try the character map.
[05:10] <cmpalmer> Indref: that's not viable for lots of typing
[05:11] <Number_5> cmpalmer: applications....accessories...character map
[05:11] <Indref> cmpalmer: Heh, true..
[05:11] <workin> can someone help me with installation?
[05:11] <cmpalmer> this is for my mom, who writes mostly in Spanish
[05:11] <BlueEagle> workin: Well you'll have to specify the problem a bit closer before I can help you.
[05:11] <dasGewitter> cmpalmer: Or for I, who uses an English layout but types in German =(
[05:11] <BlueEagle> workin: oh, and the caps really doesn't help. :)
[05:11] <holler_> a
[05:11] <cmpalmer> dasGewitter: so you haven't found a good workaround?
[05:11] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: It says "The file is not an audio stream"
[05:12] <Number_5> cmpalmer: applications....accessories...character map
[05:12] <Number_5> try that
[05:12] <Number_5> best i can do
[05:12] <workin> blueeagle:you know how it says the installation takes 25 minutes? I've been trying to install since 4PM... It's no 11:12PM..
[05:12] <dasGewitter> well, it's not usually a problem for me, seeing as how umlauted letters can just be replaced by placing an, "e" beside it
[05:12] <whitt> hmm
[05:12] <whitt> not seeing any of that sorry
[05:12] <shawnr_> pebkac, http://www.box.net/public/yzcn5jnrk2
[05:12] <cmpalmer> Number_5: I have tried that, but that doesn't work if one has to type several pages worth of Spanish
[05:12] <BlueEagle> workin: I see. Which step are you on?
[05:12] <dasGewitter> I usually always forget to suggest alt-command characters for the next release.
[05:12] <cmpalmer> Number_5: it's fine for a paragraph, but rather clumsy
[05:12] <shawnr_> pebkac, http://www.box.net/public/yzcn5jnrk2 <-- go here its my personal file storage.. dl compiz-settings
[05:13] <dasGewitter> although
[05:13] <dasGewitter> I do have a suggestion
[05:13] <amicrawler> ok it is installed  how to enable it
[05:13] <holler> just a repeat, anybody know how to fix this issue in php on the ubuntu system? "Class 'DB' not found"....i have php-pear and php-db installed
[05:13] <cmpalmer> dasGewitter: do tell
[05:13] <dasGewitter> cmpalmer: Open an empty file and find all the accented characters
[05:13] <BlueEagle> workin: ie. what do you see on the installer?
[05:13] <cmpalmer> that was my impulse :/
[05:13] <workin> well
[05:13] <dasGewitter> cmpalmer_: copy and paste them to the empty file. then use the highlight pasting ability. It's the fastest I can think of.
[05:13] <workin> everything seems to work
[05:14] <BlueEagle> ...but?
[05:14] <pebkac> shawnr_: phenomenally dumb question--what do i do with this?
[05:14] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: sudu apt-get install xmms
[05:14] <Jbirk> How do I turn off the wierd splash screen?
[05:14] <Indref> Seriously, I'd love to throw windows away and use Ubuntu. But I do not want to loose my files. Help, anyone?
[05:14] <shawnr_> Number_5, isn't limewire java based as well?
[05:14] <Jbirk> the startup screen that says ubuntu
[05:14] <Jbirk> ?
[05:14] <cmpalmer> perhaps I should file this as a bug?
[05:14] <Number_5> Number_5: yes it is
[05:14] <Number_5> lol
[05:14] <Number_5> shadow`: yes it is
[05:14] <AshDragonScale> Jbirk:
[05:14] <workin> blueeagle:insanely slow speeds... it all comes up eventually
[05:14] <dasGewitter> shawnr_: yes, but it runs a lot faster and smoother
[05:14] <cmpalmer> I really have gotten zero response from #ubuntu-es
[05:14] <shawnr_> pebkac, just run the .py file
[05:15] <workin> blueeagle:and it keeps coming up with errors... very slow errors too... first about the clock... then about the mixer applet
[05:15] <shawnr_> pebkac, make sure you set perm for ex
[05:15] <AshDragonScale> Jbirk: look online at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[05:15] <Number_5> cmpalmer: I've never used a non-us layout keyboard but you could change your keymap to a spanish one
[05:15] <shawnr_> pebkac, its still in devel, but it works alot better and wont crash your compiz
[05:15] <BlueEagle> workin: and which errors are they?
[05:15] <pebkac> woooah.
[05:15] <pebkac> okay.
[05:15] <pebkac> so i should have expected to see all those errors in terminal
[05:16] <pebkac> but the control panel still loaded
[05:16] <shawnr_> yes
[05:16] <BlueEagle> cmpalmer: please feel free to ask your questions (in english) here. :)
[05:16] <shawnr_> thats fine
[05:16] <pebkac> this is NICE.
[05:16] <whitt> anyone use webcams for mepis 6.0
[05:16] <dasGewitter> Has anyone heard how Edgy will work with compiz?
[05:16] <workin> "the panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID: Gnome_MIXERAPPLET
[05:16] <workin> ""
[05:16] <pebkac> can i safely remove gset-compiz?
[05:16] <BlueEagle> dasgewitter: #ubuntu+1 for edgy :)
[05:16] <Indref> Could someone please respond to my question?
[05:16] <shawnr_> dasGewitter, so Limewire... any others thats as good as frostwire i can try out?
[05:17] <shawnr_> pebkac, yes
[05:17] <workin> there was also one like it for the clock
[05:17] <Indref> Even just a cold
[05:17] <shawnr_> pebkac, thats never updated anyway
[05:17] <BlueEagle> dasgewitter: and I hear edgy doesn't really work all that well at all atm. :)
[05:17] <Indref> "Google it" would be nice
[05:17] <whitt> limewires the best
[05:17] <whitt> i think
[05:17] <Indref> whitt: Torrents are better
[05:17] <dasGewitter> BlueEagle: D8 ! that's a shame, it's fit for release in late October
[05:17] <Number_5> shawnr_: i use frostwire but i have plenty of resources and i don't leave it up long usually
[05:17] <whitt> oh yeah torrents are sweet but limewires quick
[05:17] <workin> blueeagle:"the panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID: Gnome_MIXERAPPLET"
[05:17] <holler> shawnr_: theres amule/emule
[05:18] <dasGewitter> Number_5: It's fully extracted
[05:18] <BlueEagle> workin: I see. Which sound card have you got?
[05:18] <shawnr_> I had emule on windows and it sucked
[05:18] <Number_5> dasGewitter: good deal
[05:18] <Jbirk> I just want to remove the ubuntu startup picture
[05:18] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: did that do it for you?
[05:18] <BlueEagle> workin: if you don't know type lspci in a terminal and look for "Multimedia audio controller"
[05:18] <Jbirk> I want to be able to see the boot
[05:18] <dasGewitter> Number_5: but...as far as burning it as an iso...
[05:18] <Jbirk> can I do it in grub
[05:18] <Number_5> dasGewitter: is the file an iso?
[05:18] <pebkac> one last lame question: how can i actually tell if ubuntu is using both cores of my core duo?  i installed linux-686-smp
[05:18] <Number_5> dasGewitter: you are in gnome correct?
[05:19] <dasGewitter> yes, and negative, it is not an iso file
[05:19] <Number_5> dasGewitter: do you want to make it an iso or soemthing?
[05:19] <BlueEagle> workin: also please tell me a bit more about your computer. I'd like to know which processor you've got and how much ram you've got installed.
[05:19] <workin> blueeagle: where is this termindal? and it wont let me do nothing
[05:19] <dasGewitter> well, the directions say to burn it as an iso. It's a movie
[05:19] <BlueEagle> workin: Programs->Accessories->Terminal
[05:19] <workin> blueeagle: even when I click "delete" it just freezes up for a ver y very very long time... eventually moves but it goes very slow
[05:20] <Number_5> dasGewitter: is it a dvd with video and audio directories?
[05:20] <BlueEagle> workin: Please. The processor and the amount of RAM you've got?
[05:20] <Number_5> dasGewitter: or is it an avi?
[05:20] <dasGewitter> Number_5: DVD with audio and Video directories
[05:21] <workin> k6 III.... and 160RAM
[05:21] <Number_5> dasGewitter: just use gnomebaker to add the directories and burn
[05:21] <Indref> Fuck this, I'm staying with windows..
[05:21] <workin> which I was told was the qquivalent of a pentiumII
[05:21] <Number_5> dasGewitter: if you don't have gnomebaker grab it on synaptic
[05:21] <workin> >.<
[05:21] <BlueEagle> workin: No wonder it's slow going. :) Have you considered running a ligher weight window manager? Like Xubuntu desktop?
[05:22] <Indref> Support community my tail
[05:22] <regeya> Indref, I wish I'd been paying attention, but lots of luck with Windows.  Huh?
[05:22] <dasGewitter> Number_5: Way farther than you ;D
[05:22] <dasGewitter> wait...
[05:22] <dasGewitter> ..that's not what you say...
[05:22] <dasGewitter> Way something...
[05:22] <Number_5> dasGewitter: way ahead of you
[05:22] <dasGewitter> Yes!!
[05:22] <Number_5> ;)
[05:22] <dasGewitter> thank you
[05:22] <Number_5> dasGewitter: no prob
[05:22] <pebkac> shawnr_: any idea how to change the tooltips back to something resembling their original function with this control panel?
[05:22] <BlueEagle> workin: The problem might be that you're simply running out of memory. You can spot that by listening to your harddisk. If it's working like mad then it's because it's paging to the swap file all the time.
[05:22] <pebkac> shawnr_: they're all over the place right now
[05:23] <workin> blue eagle: some processor that goes at 550mhz... and 160ram
[05:23] <workin> well I figured that.... but it's just trying to install it..
[05:23] <workin> will it work this slow if I somehow get the patience to install it all?
[05:23] <AshDragonScale> Indref: Sorry I did not see your question. Going to Ubuntu and not loose files? Do you have a partition free?
[05:23] <BlueEagle> workin: Well you are below the required minimum for the live cd installer.
[05:24] <BlueEagle> workin: I would recomend you get the alternate install cd which has got a text installer.
[05:24] <kyja> hard drives are generaly faster than cd drives workin
[05:24] <workin> and the hard drive doesn't sound like its going mad... the CD drive does though..
[05:24] <workin> where do I get that?
[05:24] <BlueEagle> workin: also, if I were you, I'd really concider running xubuntu as it's less memory intensive.
[05:24] <Jbirk> how do I choose to load something different with grub?
[05:24] <kyja> under 192mb ram they say you need the alternate cd
[05:24] <Krank_> Greets
[05:24] <Jbirk> other than the default?
[05:25] <workin> oh... do I need to make a CD for that too?
[05:25] <AshDragonScale> Jbirk: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[05:25] <workin> is it much different than xubuntu?
[05:25] <workin> cause I formatted my harddrive doing this ^_^;;;
[05:25] <workin> it's go nothin
[05:25] <workin> XD
[05:26] <workin> is it much different than ubuntu*
[05:26] <phargle> there's an x in front of its name
[05:26] <workin> where do I get this alternate CD?
[05:26] <Jbirk> I found it
[05:26] <Jbirk> I am running 6.06.1 LTS
[05:26] <BlueEagle> workin: I recomend http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/6.06.1/release.1/xubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[05:26] <dasGewitter> Number_5: Uh oh. I was trying to add the folders as both CD Image and DVD Image and it lists nothing for both
[05:26] <Jbirk> I hit eascape and got a GRUB menu
[05:27] <BlueEagle> workin: It is quite different.
[05:27] <AshDragonScale> try taking the splash off of the line " kernel             /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash "             in grub
[05:28] <workin> in good or bad ways? @_@
[05:28] <OsirisX11> help..my nvidia nonfree driver is no longer working. :( i installed it and it was working just fine and then i rebooted and now it doesnt show the nvidia bootup splash screen anymore and xgl stopped working too
[05:29] <kyja> you will probly have to go to the sites and carefuly review each ubuntu kubuntu and xubuntu.
[05:29] <kyja> nubuntu ?
[05:29] <mchawla> Hi, I am not able to get my wireless internet working
[05:29] <mchawla> Cud u please help
[05:29] <OsirisX11> !ndiswrapper
[05:29] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:29] <BlueEagle> workin: You can ofcourse also try the ubuntu alternate install cd found on http://www.ubuntu.com/download (choose your location and then ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso
[05:29] <mchawla> I am even allocated an IP address
[05:29] <BlueEagle> workin: But on such a low spec system I really, really recomend xubuntu.
[05:29] <OsirisX11> mchawla: see the link above
[05:29] <mchawla> but lot of packets getting dropped
[05:30] <kyja> mchawla: details of machine and wireless please I just did 2 laptops. they work
[05:30] <workin> alrighty then... I am currently downloading xubuntu
[05:30] <kyja> ah
[05:30] <workin> thank you
[05:30] <BlueEagle> mchawla: wifi you say? Did you check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide ?
[05:30] <BlueEagle> workin: no problem.
[05:31] <BlueEagle> workin: also you might concider joining #Xubuntu for help with xubuntu. :)
[05:31] <carthik> Hi, I have "headless" desktop at home which I want to connect to and see the desktop of using another system at home. How can I do this?
[05:31] <kyja> mchawla: if this is linksys or broadcom wireless cards I may be able to assist.
[05:31] <workin> blueeagle: alright.. thanks ^_^ ... also... is there a possibility I can install this through a usb device?
[05:32] <Hobbsee> carthik: ssh?
[05:32] <carthik> is there a documentation page I can read and follow to set things up real quick? thanks.
[05:32] <Jbirk> I removed the splash option
[05:32] <BlueEagle> workin: like a USB cd-rom?
[05:32] <Jbirk> and I removed the quiet option
[05:32] <Ricesteam> Hi, is it a known bug that sound is off sync in Firefox/Flash?
[05:32] <Jbirk> Now I am going to reboot and test
[05:32] <Jbirk> I hope it boots
[05:32] <phiber_optic> does hyperthreading afect linux in any wayt??
[05:32] <workin> blueeagle: more like an ipod or jump drive or something
[05:32] <farous> carthik: remote login oe ssh are both poss
[05:33] <carthik> Hobbsee: I have used freenx in the past - it works, but now I wonder if there are better supported alternatives. My questions are really stupid - like - if the system is at home, and I am at school, how would I know the "right" IP address to use to see the desktop etc.
[05:33] <BlueEagle> workin: and the problem is most likely not the CD or the CD-ROM drive. The problem is most likely lack of memory. And since you (probably) haven't got any swap space the CD gets stuck trying to load even more data into memory.
[05:33] <carthik> farous: thank you - would you know if there is a guide that will guide me through  the process?
[05:33] <silverpower> m
[05:33] <BlueEagle> workin: Even if you used an ipod or memory stick or such you'd still face the lack of memory and the same problem.
[05:34] <workin> blueeagle: no no no... I understand.. you know with all the VMM and RAM and bleh... I'm just saying... I'm out of blank CDs... ^_^;;;
[05:34] <dasGewitter> Number_5: This is very aggrivating
[05:34] <farous> carthik: you have to have static ip for it to work
[05:34] <DrewMarin> anybody got xgl or aiglx on draper?
[05:34] <carthik> Hobbsee: oh sorry - to answer your first question, I really need the graphical desktop.
[05:34] <dasGewitter> yes
[05:34] <regeya> guh.  gnome journal is BOOOOORING
[05:34] <mchawla> Sorry for disturbing again. I have been assigned IP address by DHCP server but still am not able to ping the google.com website. Ethernet works fine on this machine. Only wireless is giving problem and that too after getting assigned an ip address. Could somebody please help ?
[05:34] <kyja> workin it is as blue eagle says, you need 192 meg of rab for live cd. or else you have to use alternate cd
[05:34] <BlueEagle> workin: Aww. Well I'd email you one if I could. :)
[05:34] <Ricesteam> Is there a fix for the sound issue in Flash/firefox?
[05:34] <dasGewitter> mchawla: pm me
[05:34] <Chimamire_no_Yum> lol...ubuntu even has its own thongs
[05:34] <carthik> farous: oh I see. uhm okay. How would it work with that (And do I still need a static IP if both PCs are at home)?
[05:34] <BlueEagle> workin: as for booting from an ipod? Never heard of anyone doing that.
[05:35] <phiber_optic> does hyperthreading afect linux in any wayt??
[05:35] <regeya> http://gnomejournal.org/article/46/the-gnome-community-end-users <- if you have to explain at this point why the user is important, give up, yfi.
[05:35] <farous> carthik: if you have lan and static ip through your router there is no prob
[05:35] <regeya> phiber_optic: only if you're hacking the gibson.
[05:35] <lostsync> lol regeya
[05:35] <silverpower> phiber_optic, you need an SMP kernel, that's about it. Ubuntu should detect your SMP-capable kit anyway.
[05:35] <BlueEagle> phiber_optic: the linux kernel supports hyperthreading with the smp kernel afaik.
[05:35] <phiber_optic> what do u mean regeya
[05:36] <regeya> hacking the GIIIIBSON
[05:36] <kyja> phiber_optic: I have a p4 with hiper threading and this thing rawks
[05:36] <workin> blueeagle/kyja: I understand about the RAM... I just figured I would give it a shot anyway. I'm going to use xubuntu instead. I just don't have blank CDs. figured maybe I could do this a different way.
[05:36] <farous> carthik: for ssh it is simplyt ssh -X username@homeipaddress, and you have graphical interface too
[05:36] <phiber_optic> the thing is my computer has been behaving weird since i instlaled my new processor, everytime I download something the md5 is wrong
[05:36] <phiber_optic> when i move data from one partition to another the md5 dchanges
[05:36] <Y4llow> Can somebody help me to get Rhythmbox to support mp3
[05:36] <carthik> farous: ah, ok. I can set a static IP for that system, within the LAN. Now the question is - which is the best way to set things up? the XDCMP/Rdesktop/ VNC/tightvnc/vnc-over-ssh/FreeNX options really confuse me. I want something that is "Free" and easy to setup and maintain.
[05:36] <regeya> plugs, even

[05:37] <workin> blueeagle/kyja: I understand about the RAM... I just figured I would give it a shot anyway. I'm going to use xubuntu instead. I just don't have blank CDs. figured maybe I could do this a different way.
[05:37] <farous> carthik: ssh was the first thing i tested and did not need to inves further
[05:37] <regeya> HELLO UBOTU HAVE YOU BEEN LOBOTOMIZED?
[05:37] <carthik> farous: do I get to login to the remote desktop and see the actual desktop and have a session with ssh -X ? I thought that was "x forwarding" for particular single apps
[05:37] <farous> so basically i oly used ssh
[05:37] <phiber_optic> any ideas why this happens?
[05:37] <mchawla> dasGewitter: how do i message u ?
[05:37] <poison> when you apt-get and then remove something does it keep a cache? I installed postfix and later removed it and deleted the directory and now when I try to  reinstall it doesn't pull everything down like orginally.
[05:37] <farous> carthik: yah you for x for each appl you use
[05:38] <kyja> if your machine suports usb booting you probly can even off ipod
[05:38] <silverpower> Yeesh. xchat shouldn't be *this* cramped... :(
[05:38] <dasGewitter> mchawla: find my name in the list of names and double click it, or type /pm dasgewitter

[05:38] <kyja> if ipod can mount like any other usb drive sticl
[05:38] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: That did not work, it said the package has no installation candidate. It's not connected to the net btw.
[05:38] <BlueEagle> workin: Well it _is_ possible but it's a really nasty hack involving A) Setting off a partition to hold the .iso image, B) Booting linux from a floppy and then mounting the .iso as a loopback device and C) booting off that loopback device. But unless you really really know what you're doing I'd not recomend even starting down that lane.

[05:38] <chungaroo> is there any way to start an application automatically upon logging in?
[05:39] <workin> Alrighty I'll stop bugging you all.. Thanks though
[05:39] <BlueEagle> hobbsee: I think it's "restricted" not "nonfree" :)
[05:39] <dasGewitter> chungaroo: in the start up script
[05:39] <carthik> farous, what is it that the "applications->internet->terminal server client" uses? Or anything that is available by default in any Ubuntu desktop? (So I will have better luck guiding my girlfriend and dad later)?
[05:39] <phiber_optic> BlueEagle, do u have any ideas ?
[05:40] <farous> carthik: sorry for the slow repl lost my a letter on this laptop. dam this lenovo takeover
[05:40] <kyja> chungaroo: systems>preference>sessions |tab startup programs
[05:40] <Y4llow> lol me?
[05:40] <BlueEagle> phiber_optic: I'm sorry? About what?
[05:40] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: ok so look in you System > Administration > synaptic... load that up and search for mpg123
[05:40] <lostsync> poison, yeah it does.  you can sudo apt-get clean to get rid of the cached files
[05:40] <phiber_optic> when i move data from one partition to another the md5 dchanges, also when i download somehting the md5 is werong.. could it be something related to my processor, harddrive?
[05:40] <farous> carthik: am not heavy gui user so will not know
[05:40] <poison> tried that but when I try to reinstall I get the same result. it is missing some files
[05:40] <chungaroo> kyja: thanks a bunch. i just go skippy and i love it
[05:41] <chungaroo> got*
[05:41] <carthik> farous: I appreciate your help, and may Lenovo see better days! :)
[05:41] <farous> lol
[05:41] <poison> is there another place that it keeps track of this?
[05:41] <lostsync> poison, not that i know of.
[05:41] <mchawla> dasGwitter: It is not coming, sorry am using it for the first time
[05:41] <DrBanzai> Okay, how do I use minicom to communicate with a serial device OTHER then a modem?
[05:41] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: it didn't find anything
[05:41] <Hobbsee> BlueEagle: i'm fixing it now
[05:41] <kyja> =] 
[05:41] <lostsync> poison, have you tried a complete removal in synaptic?
[05:41] <BlueEagle> phiber_optic: How are you for power? Is your PSU (Power Supply Unit) powerful enough to handle all your devices? With a P4 and a nVidia card and a couple of hard drives you really want in excess of 400W.
[05:41] <poison> yup
[05:42] <farous> hope lenovo revert to better craftmanship
[05:42] <f> why is my name f?
[05:42] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: you said it is not connected to the internet?...
[05:42] <f> wierd.
[05:42] <phiber_optic> i have 350
[05:42] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: no internet connection
[05:42] <jumbers> I have 890
[05:42] <eggzeck> Man, I had 3D Accel working with this pc and Ubuntu straight out the box, but it was too choppy for ET, so I had to get fglrx to work, was hell but it's BEAUTIFUL haha
[05:42] <mchawla> dasGewitter : there ?
[05:43] <dasGewitter> yeah
[05:43] <BlueEagle> phiber_optic: Well I had trouble with one old drive (segate iirc) when I was running short on power. Keept messing up my data.
[05:43] <lostsync> poison, maybe you could download a .deb from another source and use dpkg to install it
[05:43] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: give me a few
[05:43] <farous> carthik: if it is for your dad do you use the desktop as server ?
[05:43] <phiber_optic> but I only have one hard drive, video card 64 mb
[05:43] <dasGewitter> mchawla: I just messaged you
[05:43] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: Ok, thanks
[05:44] <mchawla> dasGewitter: I have not received any message :(
[05:44] <Jbirk> I have done everything I want to do in linux
[05:44] <Jbirk> except
[05:44] <Jbirk> I want to configure shorewall
[05:44] <carthik> farous: yes, I _think_ I found the answer, finally. The "VNC" "VNCoverSSH" pages at the wiki are helpful, or seem so, at least.
[05:44] <DrBanzai> I got minicom configured, and the cable is hooked up, I start minicom, but it just sits there at offline.  How do I make it go online without trying to dial?
[05:44] <Jbirk> I can wait another day
[05:44] <BlueEagle> dasgewitter: Have you registered with nickserv? You need to do that in order to be able to /msg. It's a spam control issue.
[05:44] <dasGewitter> mchawla: You should have.
[05:44] <n4cht> anyone know of a good bittorrent client?  azureus and bittornado have been crap so far.  3 mins just to connect to 3/300 seeds, and then only at 2kB/s
[05:44] <farous> carthik: did you consider sshfs
[05:44] <dasGewitter> BlueEagle: grrrr I totally forgot about that.
[05:45] <BlueEagle> dasgewitter: :)
[05:45] <farous> mounting your desktop as a local drive through ssh
[05:45] <carthik> farous: i have an all but dead PII that I can use to connect to an AMD64 PC - hence my interest
[05:45] <dasGewitter> mchawla: have you any other instant messaging program?
[05:45] <pike_> n4cht, as far as connections goes ive found azureus to be best are you behind a router? setup port forwarding?
[05:45] <Warbo> Will running Xorg-air instead of Xorg give me a significant performance hit?
[05:45] <mchawla> dasGewitter :gaim will do ?
[05:45] <dasGewitter> yes
[05:45] <farous> carthik: ok
[05:45] <mchawla> dasGewitter : id on that ?
[05:46] <carthik> farous: no, I need him to be able to browse, use the computer normally, but a PII is too slow - so I want to use it only to "display" the desktop from another more powerful machine.
[05:46] <BlueEagle> n4cht: That's not neccessarily the clients fault. One thing is that there might not be any more seeders/leechers. Another thing might be a firewall not having opened incoming connections on bt ports.
[05:46] <dasGewitter> mchawla: for which medium? AIM, MSN, ICQ?
[05:46] <n4cht> no router.  just figured it out though.  stupid max upload rate was set to "automatic" instead of unlimited.
[05:46] <mchawla> MSN
[05:46] <mchawla> dasGewitter : chawla_mc
[05:46] <carthik> Thank you farous, Hobbsee - you guys have a great day.
[05:46] <kirsten> help! my apt-get is broken! it says The package hl1440lpr needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[05:47] <BlueEagle> n4cht: Well there you go. It might be a good idea to read the manual before complainign about an application. :)
[05:47] <n4cht> BlueEagle, none of which are the problem.  I'm actually downloading something via bt on my ubuntu partition that i just downloaded on windows.
[05:47] <wubrgamer> is there a way for me to like.......
[05:47] <DrBanzai> Any ideas??  I got minicom configured, and the cable is hooked up, I start minicom, but it just sits there at offline.  How do I make it go online without trying to dial?
[05:47] <wubrgamer> unencrypt a file on windows encrypted with pgp ?
[05:47] <wubrgamer> or gpg
[05:47] <BlueEagle> n4cht: and it's possible for a software firewall to block ports even if your router lets everything trough. :)
[05:47] <n4cht> so far, in the bt race.. windows is sadly winning.
[05:47] <n4cht> no software firewall, nor router.
[05:48] <wubrgamer> ?
[05:48] <wubrgamer> anyway
[05:48] <wubrgamer> gpg ?
[05:48] <wubrgamer> *smiles ?* i really need to get off my terminal.....
[05:48] <BlueEagle> wubrgamer: http://wolfram.org/writing/howto/gpg.html
[05:49] <BlueEagle> wubrgamer: You an ARK btw? *smiles*
[05:49] <wubrgamer> ARK ?
[05:49] <BlueEagle> wubrgamer: Apperantly not. Never mind. Move along. Nothing more to see here.
[05:49] <wubrgamer> no
[05:49] <wubrgamer> what's ark
[05:50] <BlueEagle> wubrgamer: If you had been you'd know. Really it's not important.
[05:50] <wubrgamer> ...
[05:50] <wubrgamer> well
[05:50] <wubrgamer> later
[05:50] <wubrgamer> thank you
[05:50] <DrBanzai> Any ideas??  I got minicom configured, and the cable is hooked up, I start minicom, but it just sits there at offline.  How do I make it go online without trying to dial?  All the man page talks about is using it with a modem.  I'm trying to connect to the managment port of my ethernet switch.
[05:50] <BlueEagle> wubrgamer: Np.
[05:51] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: What is the cable hooked up to you say?
[05:52] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Tha cable goes from Com1 on my PC to the management port on my 3com ethernet switch
[05:52] <CRoach> where can i unmute spdif?
[05:52] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: see if you can find mpg321
[05:53] <CRoach> i got a nforce2 and my speakers are using a optical cable and sounds not working....
[05:54] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: Nope, I had a look and theres nothing starting with mpg. Also I'm using Breezy Badger if that makes a difference.
[05:54] <diseaser> is there a tool/place where I can configure my wireless card beyond just a key and an ssid?
[05:54] <AshDragonScale> yes
[05:54] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: try gstreamer0.8-mad
[05:54] <phiber_optic> how can i go to a mounted disk in the command line?
[05:55] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic:  do you know where it is mounted?
[05:55] <phiber_optic> AshDragonScale, nop i just installed ubuntu before i didt it myself
[05:55] <skroll> Anyone using an intel i915GM with Aiglx manage to get a workaround for the slow text scrolling?
[05:56] <phiber_optic> and know i want to do a md5 checksum that i downloaded but its in a mounted drive
[05:56] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: Theres no mad plugin there.
[05:56] <OsirisX11> help..my nvidia nonfree driver is no longer working. :( i installed it and it was working just fine and then i rebooted and now it doesnt show the nvidia bootup splash screen anymore and xgl stopped working too
[05:57] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: which switch are we talking about here?
[05:57] <OsirisX11> i tried reinstalling it and it didnt matter..still no splash screen
[05:57] <phiber_optic> AshDragonScale, any ideas/?
[05:57] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow:  well... because there is not internet connection to the box it is going to take a bit.
[05:57] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, it's a 3Com SuperStack II 3000
[05:57] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Er, actually, I think the whole thing is 3Com SuperStack II Switch 3000
[05:58] <pollypocket> ok so how can i configure firefox to report to sites that it has Flash 8.0 r22 instead of the actually installed flash 7.0
[05:58] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: Heh, I figured that much. I've only got wireless broadband and I can't get that going either.
[05:58] <Warbo> Who was trying to get cairo-dock working earlier?
[05:58] <Warbo> (and are they still here?)
[05:58] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?highlight=%28mount%29
[05:58] <pollypocket> its gotta be doable
[05:58] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: now, I'm not familiar with minicom but you've set it up to use /dev/ttyS0 right?
[05:59] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Yes, I have
[05:59] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, And if there is something other then minicom that I could/should use, I'd like to hear about it
[06:00] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: If it's going to be to much trouble I'll work on my connection first, as I need that aswell. Thankyou for the help!
[06:00] <Seq> does anybody know offhand what the debhelper tool is that automatically generates entries in the debian/changelog file in a package?
[06:00] <Warbo> If anyone sees him/her again the fix is simple: delete or move the "cairo-dock" executable, then "make" will compile it for your system
[06:00] <regeya> mmm terminal emulator
[06:01] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow: well, do a google search for mpg321 on the box you are using and download it, you may have to manually download and install the dependencies too
[06:02] <Y4llow> AshDragonScale: That's probably what I've been trying to do up until now. I've only just started with Linux so I get stuck with the installing bit.
[06:02] <regeya> Y4llow, search the wiki for nonfree; it's not that difficult to install mp3 deps, nor is it a big secret
[06:03] <Warbo> packages.ubuntu.com lets you search for and download packages and their dependencies
[06:03] <Y4llow> regeya: Thanks, I'll have a look at that
[06:03] <regeya> Y4llow: mpg321 is in universe
[06:04] <rodrigo> VER
[06:04] <phiber_optic> can somebody help me configure the sound?
[06:04] <Y4llow> regeya: As I said before I've only just started with linux, and I sould need to be on the net with it for that right?
[06:05] <wallison> anyone got bcm43xx working on ppc?
[06:05] <AshDragonScale> Y4llow:  yes to access the universe you will have to be online
[06:05] <phiber_optic> can somebody help me configure the sound my soundblaster card has not been recognized?
[06:05] <phiber_optic> :(
[06:05] <silverpower> wallison, plenty of people have, but frankly, I'm unsure that Ubuntu can do it.
[06:05] <Y4llow> Heh, figures.
[06:06] <AshDragonScale> :)
[06:06] <wallison> silverpower: I got it to scan, but wouldn't join
[06:06] <Y4llow> I'll get through it!
[06:06] <silverpower> wallison, seeing as how most successes come from Gentoo/ppc users...
[06:06] <Y4llow> If only Woosh gave support for linux.
[06:06] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: unforunately, you don't; there is a solution - run win32 fx in wine, then you'll able to go to site where it has the latest flash version (later than 7.x)
[06:07] <regeya> meh.
[06:07] <wallison> silverpower: maybe i'll check out their forums, not tonight though, been messing with it for days!
[06:07] <phiber_optic> can somebody help me please?
[06:07] <nopcode> hey
[06:08] <regeya> !tell phiber_optic about ask
[06:08] <nopcode> whats the current stable release of ubuntu?
[06:08] <silverpower> wallison, I suggest asking in #bcm-users.
[06:08] <phiber_optic> regeya I already asked ;)
[06:08] <DBO> nopcode, 6.06
[06:08] <TheGame> hey
[06:08] <nopcode> DBO: i mean... in terms of... names?
[06:08] <pollypocket> IcemanV9: well is there some tools for ubuntu to install wine then firefox then flash
[06:08] <TheGame> whats the best newsreader for ubuntu
[06:08] <DBO> nopcode, dapper drake
[06:08] <wallison> silverpower: ok, thanks
[06:08] <TheGame> or gnome in general i guess
[06:08] <nopcode> DBO: how old is "hoary"?
[06:08] <TheGame> pan newsreader sucks
[06:08] <silverpower> I'd tell you to ask in #gentoo-ppc if the relevant dep was awake, wallison.
[06:08] <phiber_optic> phiber_optic> can somebody help me configure the sound my soundblaster card has not been recognized?
 :(
[06:08] <DBO> nopcode, about a year
[06:09] <Nexea> hey
[06:09] <OsirisX11> TheGame: I've been using NINAN and i love it. :)
[06:09] <nopcode> DBO: ic.. how do i upgrade to dapper drake? just change the apt-sources?
[06:09] <pollypocket> is wine just hanging out in synaptic ?
[06:09] <Nexea> i just stopped in to say what a cool job the open source community is doing
[06:09] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Any ideas?
[06:09] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: sudo aptitude install wine
[06:09] <Nexea> i just got into subversion and i love
[06:09] <Nexea> it
[06:09] <Nexea> i love open source now
[06:09] <nopcode> svn rocks, yeah
[06:09] <TheGame> ill give it a try
[06:09] <TheGame> what windows app is it like OsirisX11
[06:09] <wallison> silverpower: i'll try again in a couple days, for now Ubuntu's madwifi is working with my pc card
[06:09] <DBO> nopcode, it would be faster to reinstall if thats not an issue, otherwise you have to upgrade to breezy-badgery, then to dapper-drake
[06:09] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: AND dl win32 fx from mozilla.org then install it
[06:10] <nopcode> DBO: can't, it's a remote server
[06:10] <regeya> svn is incredibly useful
[06:10] <Nexea> i mean.. i can completely screw up a file many different times and completely revert and compare changes
[06:10] <KroniX> Hey is it possible to not reformat the root filesystem when doing an install from the livecd?
[06:10] <nopcode> DBO: ok, how do i upgrade then?
[06:10] <TheGame> OsirisX11: what is the pckg name for ninan
[06:10] <pollypocket> ok so wine install is under way
[06:10] <Nexea> and combined with TortoiseSVN with windows.. its even better
[06:10] <Nexea> oh, let me ask you guys.. while i am here
[06:10] <Warbo> KroniX: I think so (there is a box on the right of each partition "Format" "Do Not Format")
[06:10] <DBO> !upgrade > nopcode
[06:11] <wallison> silverpower: thanks for the suggestions
[06:11] <Nexea> what is the command line for the file explorer?
[06:11] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: You using a regular modem cable or a null-modem cable?
[06:11] <KroniX> Warbo, Yeah but it forces me to do it
[06:11] <DBO> nopcode, the bot has sent you a message with the concept
[06:11] <Warbo> Nexea: "nautilus"
[06:11] <Nexea> ohh i see
[06:11] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: I am guessing the latter and that being the cause of your ailments.
[06:11] <nopcode> DBO: ok thanks
[06:11] <pollypocket> ok so wine install apears done
[06:11] <Nexea> warbo: and how do i elevate its power only for one operation? instead of doing sudo nautilus
[06:11] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: make that the former.
[06:11] <Nexea> like access a file
[06:11] <pollypocket> just get firefox now
[06:11] <KroniX> Warbo, it says it's required that the root filesystem be formatted, the only problem is the root filesystem has about 70 gigs of backup that can't be moved onto an external disk for another week
[06:11] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Actually, it's a ragular serial cable
[06:11] <silverpower> wallison, np.
[06:11] <Warbo> Nexea: Or "nautilus /wherever/you/want/to/visit"
[06:12] <nopcode> DBO: that update manager thing... i'll still need to do the other stuff before?
[06:12] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: You need to be using a null-modem cable (ie crossed CTX and RTX iirc) according to http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/switches/s_stack2/pdf/16942au3.pdf
[06:12] <Nexea> hmm
[06:12] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: (yes I downloaded the pdf and read it just for you)
[06:12] <Warbo> Nexea: 1) Use "gksudo nautilus" instead of sudo (sudo can screw up preferences' permissions) and 2) I don't know, just quit it after doing that one thing
[06:12] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Could be, and probably is, but when I get a null modem cable, I still won't know how to get minicom to go online without trying to dial
[06:12] <Nexea> ohh thank you warbo
[06:13] <Nexea> never heard of gksudo
[06:13] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: ,--8<-
[06:13] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: |have a look-see on page 2-7 "If you are using a PC, you need a null modem
[06:13] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: |cable with an appropriate connector.
[06:13] <Nexea> there  are a ton of commands i have noticed.. i guess that is the unix philosophy
[06:13] <DBO> nopcode, basically you need to change your sources from hoary to breezy, then upgrade
[06:13] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: `-->8-
[06:13] <phiber_optic> anyone can help me configure my sound please?
[06:13] <Warbo> Nexea: "ls /usr/bin"
[06:13] <Nexea> Warbo: but thanks, i appreciate it
[06:13] <DBO> nopcode, once you are all up to date for breezy, you need to change your sources agian to dapper, and upgrade again
[06:13] <Nexea> oh yeah, i know ls
[06:13] <BlueEagle> sorry about that :(
[06:13] <regeya> DrBanzai, BlueEagle:  don't know about the situation anymore, but I bought a premade crossover cable as recently as 2000 at Staples...worked fine
[06:13] <KroniX> anyone, bueler :)
[06:13] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic: what's wrong with it?
[06:13] <Warbo> Nexea: Most "commands" are in /usr/bin (they are files, ala the other part of the UNIX philosophy)
[06:14] <kleedrac> So I tried getting suspend2 working last night and it broke my wireless card ... which packages should I reinstall?
[06:14] <Nexea> warbo: ls, cd, rm, sudo, su.. those are really heavily used.. so i had to know them.. but the other commands that are not as used.. like say htpwd
[06:14] <phiber_optic> AshDragonScale, it didnt recogineze my SoundBlaster card but it recognized the onboard sound card
[06:14] <BlueEagle> regeya: Well most likely people will have to cross their own cables.
[06:14] <phiber_optic> and i dont know how to confiugre it
[06:14] <Nexea> warbo: yeah.. but i just see executables.. not really what they mean
[06:14] <Nexea> warbo: although i can always --help and man X file
[06:14] <Nexea> warbo: also.. grep is very, very nice
[06:14] <omnid> How do I shot WMV support
[06:14] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Ahh, I see that now.  I just wish my Wyse 160 hadn't crapped out on me, I could avoid all these problems
[06:14] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: Are the connectors welded (or compact) or can you unscrew them?
[06:15] <Nexea> warbo: my first commands were something like ps -A | grep apache2
[06:15] <Nexea> warbo: very useful
[06:15] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: The good thing is that you can telnet in over tcp/ip
[06:15] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic:  what version are you running? Dapper?
[06:15] <phiber_optic> AshDragonScale, yes dapper
[06:15] <corndog_> i do a lot of web development including c#, php, xhtml, etc. I just switched to ubuntu tonight.. can anyone recommend some good editors with auto-complete and syntax highlighting?
[06:15] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, actually, I extended my serial cable, using a couple DB9 to RJ45 connectors, and a patch cable
[06:15] <pollypocket> ok so I downloaded firefox windows to desktop and double clicked the file and it said could not display
[06:16] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, I could telnet in, if I knew which IP address to use
[06:16] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards?highlight=%28sound%29
[06:16] <Nexea> corndog_: i would like to know the answer to your question as well.. i code in c# on an almost weekly basis. i would love to work in ubuntu and get rid of my windows machine
[06:16] <TheGame> OsirisX11: apparently you have to be a genius to install ninan
[06:16] <harisund> back
[06:16] <omnid> WELCOME BACK!!!
[06:16] <harisund> Is it possible to triboot Ubuntu AMD64, Ubuntu i386 and Window XP?
[06:16] <mrproper> What do I do to get hibernation working on my system?
[06:17] <Warbo> harisund: I would say yes
[06:17] <omnid> harisund, I don't see why not
[06:17] <regeya> BlueEagle: true, but from my own experience, if you're too lazy to do it yourself, there's always a lazy overpriced solution *wink*
[06:17] <harisund> omnid lol, I wanted to type /back in my irssi and I ended up typing just back.
[06:17] <pollypocket> IcemanV9: I just set the permissions to 777 and it still does not execute
[06:17] <Warbo> harisund: Although you would need 2 GRUBs
[06:17] <corndog_> Nexea: i still have a windows machine for work (microsoft technologies).. but I have switched over entirely to ubuntu for home use and for side jobs (mostly php, ror)
[06:17] <AshDragonScale> pollypocket: you are trying to install the windows version of FireFox on Ubuntu?
[06:17] <pollypocket> right
[06:17] <AshDragonScale> pollypocket: why?
[06:17] <omnid> That sounds like a fail
[06:17] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: it should run
[06:17] <pollypocket> to get around flash 8.0
[06:18] <harisund> Warbo and omnid that was my question. What I had in mind was install Windows XP, which woudl take over the MBR. Install i386, which would create a grub containing Windows XP and i386, then install AMD64 which would install Grub2 containing Grub1 and AMD64. Right?
[06:18] <omnid> Flash didn't even work for me until I installed it
[06:18] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: i didn't have problem on my box .. hm
[06:18] <regeya> AshDragonScale: hey, try scrolling back a bit, my overly excitable friend
[06:18] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: Then you need to consult your network administrator (according to the manual) :p
[06:18] <omnid> Is something wrong with flash 8?
[06:18] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Yeah, I know...
[06:18] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: nmap might be able to help you though. If you've got time to spare.
[06:18] <Warbo> I would say Ubuntu gets around Flash 8 quite well. If you want to USE Flash 8, and not get around it, then use Windows Firefox in WINE
[06:18] <pollypocket> well additionally i really want to see what this run windows software on wine stuff is all about
[06:18] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Hmmm, I hadn't thought of that
[06:18] <Nexea> corndog_: ahh i see.. yeah.. i use ubuntu for some of my servers but i would love to have more machines run on it
[06:19] <snoops> flash 9 you mean.. good luck finding a copy of flash 8 these days
[06:19] <Nexea> corndog_: it's a very beautiful package
[06:19] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: open "home" folder and double-click on win32 fx
[06:19] <nopcode> DBO: It is recommended that you have the "ubuntu-desktop", "kubuntu-desktop", or "edubuntu-desktop" metapackage (depending on which distribution you're running exactly) in order to ensure that you have the full set of default packages.
[06:19] <omnid> pollypocket: I use vmware because Reason supposedly works crappy in wine
[06:19] <omnid> as well as other audio programs aparently
[06:19] <pollypocket> early some one noted using flash 8 is not going to happen
[06:19] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Course, I haven;t had much luck trying to interpret nmap either
[06:19] <nopcode> DBO: hm, why would i have to install gui stuff on a remote server :|
[06:19] <phiber_optic> AshDragonScale, what surprises me why didnt it recognize, and on breeze it dig
[06:19] <omnid> Linux really really really needs a good audio creation program
[06:19] <DBO> nopcode, you can ignore that
[06:19] <phiber_optic> did*
[06:19] <cef> hey, anyone else have problems with playing YouTube videos since a few days ago? I get video but no sound
[06:19] <pollypocket> my version of flash plugin in firefox is 7.0 r63
[06:19] <snoops> Warbo regarding firefox in wine.. wine has a shocking windows system colour - is there a way to make it use your ubuntu window system colour?
[06:19] <Warbo> harisund: Basically you would want 1 grub on a partition, and 1 grub on MBR. This is not STRICTLY needed, but it means 2 Ubuntu systems won't be trying to overwrite each others' kernel image configs. Use the "chainloader" method that runs Windows to run the other GRUB partition
[06:19] <pollypocket> and synaptic does not have an update for it
[06:19] <snoops> and fonts
[06:19] <IcemanV9> that IS the version for linux only
[06:20] <KroniX> anyone know how to bypass the forced formatting of root in the ubuntu installer, possibly a way to start the expert install from the livecd?
[06:20] <Warbo> snoops: You mean a theme?
[06:20] <dribble> i want flash 9 linux and i wanst it yesterday
[06:20] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic: do you have the onboard sound turned off in bios or on the board?
[06:20] <williamb> how do i create folders using the terminal?
[06:20] <omnid> cef: No, but I have that problem with Googlevideos
[06:20] <harisund> Warbo sweet..thanks for the tip. So what exactly does the chainloader do? Where could I find more documentation on that?
[06:20] <snoops> Warbo I wouldn't expect widgets or anything.. just changing the fonts and window system colours in wine.. so it's not this dark grey and tiny font
[06:20] <phiber_optic> in the bios
[06:20] <phiber_optic> i think
[06:20] <Warbo> snoops: Look at the WINE page on help.ubuntu.com, since I added a theme section to it a few days ago
[06:20] <pollypocket> which ever the version conflict - the solution is firefox on wine
[06:20] <RalleAb> is there a way to start the guide that comes when you've just installed linux? the keyboard, time etc guide
[06:21] <snoops> a few days ago? Good timing :)
[06:21] <snoops> thanks
[06:21] <cef> never mind, it's fixed now
[06:21] <absurdhero> is anyone from canonical here?
[06:21] <pollypocket> IcemanV9: so now that ive downloaded firefox-win how do I isntall it
[06:21] <wallison> williamb: mkdir "directory_name" without the quotes
[06:21] <IcemanV9> i have win32 fx (with wine) running .. so my wife can watch some prime-time tv shows from ABC, NBC & CBS :)
[06:21] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic: make sure it is turned off there, check your manual and see if there is a jumper on the board to disable it.
[06:21] <omnid> cef: How did you fix it?
[06:21] <Warbo> pollypocket: "wine filename.exe"
[06:22] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: open "home" folder and double-click on win32 fx
[06:22] <cef> omnid: didn't.. it just works now
[06:22] <Warbo> pollypocket: Or double click
[06:22] <omnid> :/
[06:22] <phiber_optic> i read the whole manual and didnt find anything
[06:22] <Nexea> williamb: make sure you are either running root access to make a directory in certain places or use the sudo program to elevate your powers to a super user
[06:22] <omnid> I worry when stuff doesn't work then just "suddenly works"
[06:22] <omnid> It's an issue of stability
[06:23] <pollypocket> i did the double click but no work
[06:23] <williamb> Nexea, i got it. thanks
[06:23] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: nmap -p 21 0-255.0-255.0-255.1-254    <= that ought to find it.
[06:23] <Warbo> omnid: I just accept the "suddenly works" and am grateful for it, since most stuff never works again... :(
[06:23] <williamb> and thank you too wallison
[06:23] <omnid> Warbo: That's something people shouldn't do. Really if it's a problem it should be resolved overall
[06:23] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: might take half a centrury though and odds are you'll find it in the c class network ranges so you might only want to scan those.
[06:24] <kyja> then you right click an exe choose open with and then type in wineserver right?
[06:24] <Warbo> omnid: OK, then fix my Xorg :)
[06:24] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: ?? ok. try "wine program.exe" in the terminal
[06:24] <pollypocket> i ran the command line and now have the firefox installer running in a window
[06:24] <omnid> I don't even know what that is!!
[06:24] <kyja> then exe always works with wine
[06:24] <Nexea> nmap.. that's a port scanner right?
[06:24] <AshDragonScale> phiber_optic:  do you know the model of your sound card?
[06:24] <Warbo> !info xserver-xorg
[06:24] <ubotu> xserver-xorg: the X.Org X server. In component main, is optional. Version 7.0.0-0ubuntu45 (dapper), package size 98 kB, installed size 344 kB
[06:24] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: good. :)
[06:24] <omnid> So it's a server program?
[06:24] <snoops> ah nice and simple guide there Warbo, cheers
[06:24] <Warbo> omnid: It is the graphics server
[06:25] <omnid> ?
[06:25] <pollypocket> ok I just selected custom install and the only option is path to install c:\Program etc...   should this be changed ???
[06:25] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, That just came back with:  WARNING: No targets were specified, so 0 hosts scanned.
[06:25] <DrBanzai> Nmap run completed -- 0 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 0.007 seconds
[06:25] <Warbo> omnid: Those little pixels, and the mouse and keyboard? Done by X
[06:25] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: nope. i just left it the way it is.
[06:25] <omnid> So it's a designer?
[06:25] <Nexea> also.. why are there no operators or half ops in this channel?
[06:25] <phiber_optic> deam 3time linux freezed
[06:25] <phiber_optic> freezed
[06:25] <phiber_optic> :(
[06:25] <Warbo> I broke Xorg, so now I am in Xorg-air
[06:25] <omnid> I don't feel any reason to think it's anything remote
[06:26] <pollypocket> hmmmm i philosphize on how wine handles this some o ther time
[06:26] <omnid> so why do they call it server?
[06:26] <Warbo> omnid: You honestly don't know what X is, or are you joking?
[06:26] <omnid> I'm a complete newbie
[06:26] <IcemanV9> pollypocket: i just shared what i did with mine. now, it's up to ya. :)
[06:26] <omnid> It would be safe to assume I know little to nothing about Linux at all
[06:26] <pollypocket> away it goes
[06:26] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: nmap sT -p 21 192.0-255.0-255.1-254    <= that ought to find it.
[06:27] <Warbo> omnid: It is the architecture which draws all of the graphics on the system. It is a server since it is completely networked. You can open windows on another display on another computer, and they can open ones on yours, as long as the display permissions are set
[06:27] <omnid> Hmm I see
[06:28] <frig> is there an ubunu homepage?
[06:28] <pollypocket> shite the desktop icon is owned by root
[06:28] <eternalswd> frig, look at the topic
[06:28] <chemaja> omnid: http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/index.html
[06:28] <Warbo> omnid: You can try "sudo X :5" to open a new display with the ID ":5" (use ctrl-alt-f7 and ctrl-alt-f8 to switch back and forth)
[06:28] <wallison> silverpower: you back?
[06:28] <omnid> frig: http://ubuntu.com
[06:28] <frig> no, ubunu
[06:29] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: nmap sT -p 21 192.0.0.0/24      <= should do the same apperantly
[06:29] <omnid> Thought that was a typo...
[06:29] <frig> heh :)
[06:29] <Nexea> so is anyone else in here a web designer?
[06:29] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: keep in mind that I'm making this out from pages as I go so I may or may not be way off the mark. :)
[06:29] <omnid> Warbo: A new display? Like a new desktop or what?
[06:29] <wallison> silverpower: thought we better discuss in here before we got flamed in #gentoo!
[06:29] <Nexea> brb
[06:30] <silverpower> wallison, nah, it's fine.
[06:30] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, That one seems to be working.  The rest all gave the sam error...we'll see what this comes up with
[06:30] <Warbo> omnid: It will be empty if you don't put anything on it, but you could run another desktop on it if you want (to do that it is easier choosing System>Quit and pressing Switch User)
[06:30] <wallison> silverpower: just don't want to give 'em a reason!
[06:30] <omnid> Thanks for this chemaja
[06:30] <ubuntu> hi
[06:30] <silverpower> Some of the devs in -ppc wrote the AE driver. Too bad JoseJX isn't awake, he could help.
[06:31] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Hmmm, it's done.  Now what?  I've never used nmap from the command line before
[06:31] <wallison> silverpower: they're pretty bad sometimes in #debian too
[06:31] <omnid> Ah
[06:31] <ubuntu> hello DrBanzai
[06:31] <omnid> I created another user account guest
[06:31] <omnid> And gave it certain permissions to directories and things
[06:31] <DrBanzai> Hey ubuntu
[06:31] <omnid> Is that the same?
[06:31] <silverpower> wallison, mm. Well, we try to keep it reasonably friendly in there, but I understand the main gentoo chan isn't all that friendly.
[06:32] <ubuntu> how r u doing ?
[06:32] <dribble> gentoo chan's pretty friendly. just beyond busy with WAYY too many rtfm's
[06:32] <Warbo> Gah, I just tried to switch user and a) It asked "Which type of session do you want to start? AIGLX or standard?" But the screen had already locked, and b) I told it AIGLX and it said too many X sessions are open :(
[06:32] <dribble> ..but, the gentoo docs are un-paralleled
[06:32] <wallison> silverpower: cool, it's been a while since i've used linux and been in any channels, going off couple of years ago
[06:33] <Warbo> omnid: "Switch user" opens a new display so a different user (or another one of your user) can do stuff. It also locks the current display so you need a password to get back in
[06:33] <ubuntu> DrBanzai:  which version of ubuntu ur on?
[06:33] <geniusdot> a.....
[06:34] <case`> anyone know how to configure ez-ipupdate to update two A records?
[06:34] <omnid> One thing I dislike about Linux overall is the super strong sense of open source opposing commercial software
[06:34] <silverpower> wallison, I'm afraid I won't be of much help on Ubuntu-specific issues - this is a temporary install until Gentoo finishes rebuilding, and I wanted to see how far they'd come. I'm impressed.
[06:34] <ubuntu> silverpower:  hi
[06:34] <ubuntu> wallison:  hello
[06:34] <wallison> silverpower: yeah, me too. Long time slacker here
[06:34] <pollypocket> ok so if I installed firefox as root do I need to uninstall it so that I can then install it as my regular non-root user
[06:34] <omnid> Linux is great because of how open source it is, but really it could be waay better it if were just a little more commercial
[06:34] <wallison> ubuntu: hi
[06:35] <inv_Arp> case`: i use it to updated my ip... whats an A record
[06:35] <omnid> It doesn't seem to discuss that in this introduction to it
[06:35] <ubuntu> pollypocket: it should work for normal user to, just make sure links r made ok
[06:35] <case`> inv_Arp: I'm using it successfully to update my domain (mydomain.com), but I need it to also update the mx IP (mail.mydomain.com)
[06:35] <Warbo> omnid: http://www.redhat.com
[06:35] <pollypocket> firefox was downloaded to my regular users Desktop directory and installed from that directory
[06:35] <DrBanzai> ubuntu, I'm still using 5.04 (The Hoary Hedgehog)
[06:36] <`m0> hmm
[06:36] <inv_Arp> case`: then run it twice
[06:36] <ubuntu> DrBanzai: kool
[06:36] <`m0> Ubuntu is amazing...
[06:36] <`m0> Thanks guys....
[06:36] <omnid> Warbo: I hear redhat is crap, confirm/deny
[06:36] <inv_Arp> case`:  one for each
[06:36] <ubuntu> yes ubuntu is a nice os
[06:36] <pollypocket> ubuntu ok i'll see about setting the permissions to 777 on all those files and links . is that what you mean
[06:36] <`m0> It recognized EVERYTHING!
[06:36] <ubuntu> i have tried quite a few myself
[06:36] <`m0> unlike gentoo and other distr
[06:36] <dasGewitter> Hello, I burned a DVD as an ISO
[06:37] <dasGewitter> Now when I'm trying to play it, It says the source is encrypted
[06:37] <dasGewitter> I have libdvdcss2
[06:37] <dasGewitter> yet I still get the error
[06:37] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: did you rin this dvd?
[06:37] <ubuntu> pollypocket:  yes
[06:37] <inv_Arp> err rip
[06:37] <godtvisken> dasGewitter: hej kannst du deutsch?
[06:37] <dasGewitter> ja, ich kann.
[06:37] <ubuntu> dasGewitter:  prob. drm issue
[06:37] <dasGewitter> and yes, it's a ripped torrent.
[06:37] <case`> inv_Arp: sounds like it should work, have you done it? I'll just try it out.... what's the worst that could happen -- Thanks a lot!!
[06:38] <dasGewitter> drm?
[06:38] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: did you rip this dvd?
[06:38] <Warbo> omnid: I like their Bluecurve theme, but mainly for nostalgia :) Also, I like their stance on the openness of things (like they refused to include the slightly-more-free Java), but dislike their stance on Fedora. But Fedora has now been basically liberated from Redhat, so that is cool
[06:38] <ubuntu> digital right media
[06:38] <dasGewitter> Not me personally, but it is a ripped dvd
[06:38] <pollypocket> uhm I didnt notice this before, what does it mean ?
[06:38] <godtvisken> dasGewitter: cool. ich lerne deutsch in der schule und freue mich auf chancen es zu sprechen
[06:38] <dasGewitter> I downloaded from torrent
[06:38] <pollypocket> wine: '/home/grace/.wine' created successfully.
[06:38] <pollypocket> fixme:win:SetWindowTextW setting text L"Extracting" of other process window 0x10022 should not use SendMessage
[06:38] <`m0> Thanx ubuntu :D
[06:38] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: ok the person that ripped it didint remove to copy protextion
[06:39] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: Did you find any hits?
[06:39] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: please note that I've not used nmap either. :p
[06:39] <Warbo> drm=digital rights management (or digital restrictions management :) )
[06:39] <dasGewitter> so what do I do?
[06:39] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: so you cant play it either...
[06:39] <ubuntu> Warbo:  oops sorry
[06:39] <ubuntu> ur right
[06:39] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, I don't know.  I guess not.  It said it scanned 256 hosts, but didn't give any kind of an output
[06:39] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: \rm dvd.iso
[06:39] <inv_Arp> get rid of it
[06:39] <ubuntu> DrBanzai: what bout nmap
[06:40] <ubuntu> what r u trying to do?
[06:40] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: let me check something. :)
[06:40] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: or?
[06:40] <dasGewitter> there is no iso file
[06:40] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Cool, thanks
[06:40] <inv_Arp> use vobcopy  and rerip
[06:40] <dasGewitter> it's the type that has both Audio_TS and Video_TS
[06:40] <ubuntu> DrBanzai:  what r u trying to do with nmap?
[06:40] <lwarimav> rfghiosjd
[06:40] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: install vobcopy
[06:40] <dasGewitter> godtvisken: haha, tja, natuerlich. immer sprech
[06:40] <DrBanzai> ubuntu, I'm trying to configure my ethernet switch, so BlueEagle suggested that I use nmap to find out which IP addrerss the switch is using
[06:40] <dasGewitter> what's it do?
[06:40] <phiber_optic> can somebody help me configure my sound
[06:41] <ubuntu> i c
[06:41] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: it will rerip and remove copy protection
[06:41] <dasGewitter> I don't own the dvd, so you're saying it will glean the files?
[06:41] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: doesnt matter ... yes it will
[06:41] <omnid> Warbo: My only other experiance in Linux was with Linspire and kubuntu and I hated them both. Are a lot of distros similar to these?
[06:42] <inv_Arp> omnid: no...  try them out to find out
[06:42] <dasGewitter> inv_Arp: That's very annoying, since I just burnt the cd
[06:42] <inv_Arp> dasGewitter: no prob
[06:42] <ubuntu> usr -v option to see output
[06:42] <inv_Arp> just rerip and reburn
[06:43] <omnid> Well which is recommended? I was thinking of trying Gentoo
[06:43] <inv_Arp> omnid: are you good at linux?
[06:43] <Warbo> omnid: It would basically be the difference between KDE and GNOME. Most distros offer both, but support one more than the other. Ubuntu offers both, but kubuntu supports KDE more (well, now Ubuntu just ships any KDE stuff over to the Kubuntu guys). Loads of distros are based on KDE, but I don't like the feel of KDE. I prefer GNOME with Enlightenment (I've always had a thing for Enlightenment)
[06:43] <oem> hello all
[06:43] <oem> ?
[06:44] <ubuntu> hello oem
[06:44] <oem> I'm using GNOME
[06:44] <omnid> inv_Arp: No not at all
[06:44] <nopcode> i don't like cheap windows clones at all
[06:44] <nopcode> fvwm2 ftw
[06:44] <oem> but you know GNOME has two bars
[06:44] <inv_Arp> omnid: then gentoo isnt ez
[06:44] <oem> how can I remove the one on the bottom
[06:44] <ubuntu> if u wana try windows stuff on linux, better stick to windows
[06:44] <nopcode> ubuntu: ack
[06:44] <inv_Arp> omnid: fedora, Suse are nice also
[06:45] <Warbo> oem right click on an empty bit of it, then select "Delete this panel"
[06:45] <ubuntu> oem why do u wana remove it?
[06:45] <`m0> hmm
[06:45] <Salgat> Hey whats a good freeware partitioner(or at least something useable in trial) for windows, I need to make room for Linux lol
[06:45] <`m0> Wow, I wonder why I didn't use ubuntu at the beginning
[06:45] <`m0> the Gentoo distribution was a hassel
[06:45] <ubuntu> sladen:  gparted
[06:45] <oem> remember if I remove the one on the bottom when I open a file it won't be able to minimize
[06:45] <`m0> Ubuntu was like 1 2 3
[06:45] <`m0> done
[06:45] <Warbo> Salgat: Get a LiveCD of Ubutnu or GParted
[06:45] <TheGame> haha
[06:45] <TheGame> can some1 help me with pan news
[06:45] <Warbo> !gparted
[06:45] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[06:45] <inv_Arp> Salgat: nuthin for win i know of...  use parted for linux...
[06:45] <oem> I just don't like it ubuntu
[06:45] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: ok, new syntax :) nmap -sT -p 21 192.0.0.0/8
[06:45] <omnid> Warbo: I don't really like KDE either. Plus it feels like I'm just plain installing every program over again for an alternative because all of the KDE ones feel just like the packaged windows programs to me. Like only about half as good as I want them to be.
[06:45] <TheGame> with the new stable version
[06:45] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: But that will take ages.
[06:45] <Salgat> Gparted?  Thanks, this wont overwrite windows correct?
[06:46] <TheGame> i cant figure out how to open nzbs
[06:46] <BlueEagle> hmm
[06:46] <oem> I prefere on panel and at the bottom
[06:46] <TheGame> any1?
[06:46] <Warbo> oem: You can add the Window List applet to the top panel if you want
[06:46] <ubuntu> BlueEagle:  also use the -vv option with nmap to see output
[06:46] <inv_Arp> Salgat: back up your data!!  regardless what prgram you use
[06:46] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: try instead: nmap -p 21 192.168.0.0/16
[06:46] <omnid> Warbo: Then again kubuntu is probably the only thing packaged like that
[06:46] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: and use -vv option too as it is more verbose.
[06:46] <seatouch-> !ftp
[06:46] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[06:46] <TheGame> has any1 used pan for nzbs
[06:46] <inv_Arp> TheGame: nzbperl
[06:46] <Salgat> Haha, if it reformats everything I dont mind, nothing important on here, but would rather not have to install again :)
[06:47] <TheGame> whats that
[06:47] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: and -vv appears to speed things up too.
[06:47] <oem> thanks warbo
[06:47] <inv_Arp> TheGame: google ot
[06:47] <Warbo> omnid: It's all a matter of preference, and I change my setup every few days (I tried Compiz+AIGLX about an hour ago, but it ran crap on my driver)
[06:47] <rast4_> has anyone been able to get the network drivers to work on an HP Pavilion zd7000 series?
[06:47] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Okay, I gave it nmap sT -vv -p 21 192.168.0.0/16
[06:47] <phiber_optic> can somebody help me in configuring my sound
[06:48] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, First thing it say is: Failed to resolve given hostname/IP: sT.  Note that you can't use '/mask' AND '[1-4,7,100-] ' style IP ranges
[06:48] <inv_Arp> rast4_: have you/
[06:48] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Now it's just sitting, I assume it's still scanning
[06:48] <Warbo> Does anyone here know a bit of eesh, since #enlightenment is asleep?
[06:48] <rast4_> inv_arp: no, hence the question
[06:48] <ubuntu> DrBanzai: DrBanzai it is -sT not sT
[06:48] <omnid> I think I just fear all my hardware will stop working again
[06:49] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: hit ctrl+c
[06:49] <inv_Arp> rast4_: what type of network card is it?
[06:49] <Salgat> How do I go into a console based Ubuntu, or is it only possible from the repair mode or terminal?
[06:49] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: then run: nmap -vv -p 21 192.168.0.0/16
[06:49] <Warbo> Salgat: ctrl-alt-f1
[06:49] <Salgat> By console I mean text only
[06:49] <ubuntu> Salgat: ctrl+alt+f1
[06:49] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[06:49] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[06:49] <Salgat> thank you
[06:49] <Warbo> (and f2, f3, etc.)
[06:49] <inv_Arp> Salgat: hence the term console...
[06:49] <rast4_> inv_arp: hang on let me figure it out, I know the NIC is a Realtek and there is a Wireless adapter as well
[06:49] <rast4_> minipcu
[06:49] <Salgat> hehe
[06:49] <rast4_> pci*
[06:49] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: that will cover all IPs that start with 192.168 (which is a normal range)
[06:49] <omnid> I don't know what most of my hardware is and since it's a laptop I can't do much to change that. It rather sucks I probably have an unsupported radeon mobile
[06:49] <inv_Arp> rast4_: lspci
[06:50] <ubuntu> Salgat: yw
[06:50] <adam__> hi, I have installed wine and am trying to install my fathers software and it requires MSIE v4 or better, I can't seem to find Internet Explorer in Synaptic, does it exist?
[06:50] <inv_Arp> GoonSquad: yes...
[06:50] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Yeah, that the range that my DHCP server is using
[06:50] <GoonSquad> inv_Arp how
[06:50] <Warbo> omnid: I have a Radeon 9200, but the 3D driver only does 3D, not transparency. That means Mesa does all of the fading and stuff, which is awful
[06:50] <inv_Arp> adam__: no.. not in synaptic
[06:50] <BlueEagle> ubuntu: Have you got any better ideas of locating a rouge switch that has got a telnet server running?
[06:50] <ubuntu> adam__:  lol u wont find IE on synaptic dude
[06:50] <ubuntu> chk microsoft site
[06:50] <inv_Arp> sine IE is not a linux app!!
[06:50] <omnid> Warbo: Mesa?
[06:50] <case`> inv_Arp: thanks for the ez-ipupdate advice. All you have to do is add more .conf files to /etc/ez-ipupdate and /etc/init.d/ez-ipupdate picks them up and spawns a daemon for each one --- Thanks again.
[06:50] <omnid> !mesa > omnid
[06:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mesa - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:51] <ubuntu> BlueEagle:  hit the telnet port 23
[06:51] <inv_Arp> GoonSquad: usermod
[06:51] <GoonSquad> inv_Arp how
[06:51] <omnid> bleh nothing on mesa
[06:51] <BlueEagle> ubuntu: ofcourse
[06:51] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: my bad.
[06:51] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, No, I should have cought that too
[06:51] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: stop that search and change -p 21 to -p 23
[06:51] <BlueEagle> :)
[06:51] <Warbo> omnid: Mesa is an entire implementation of OpenGL which is built out of software. It means that if your graphics card doesn't support a certain feature then Mesa will do it with your CPU, but it is much slower
[06:51] <adam__> ok guys, is it possible to get IE on my ubuntu box for my windows app that needs to interface with it?
[06:51] <inv_Arp> adam__: get crossover office...
[06:51] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: well it's 6:52 am here and I've yet to sleep so I'm excused. :p
[06:51] <omnid> Warbo: Oh yeah that sounds like it would kill my PC
[06:51] <Warbo> adam__: Look for "ies4linux"
[06:52] <omnid> Considering all 3D acceleration seems absent
[06:52] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: about those connectors on the serial cable. Are they openable?
[06:52] <Warbo> omnid: Have you tried a 3D driver?
[06:52] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, it's 23:51 here, and I've had about 2 hours sleep in the last 20 or so
[06:52] <omnid> I can't find any for Linux on Radeon's site
[06:52] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: if so you might want to search for null modem cable and attempt to modify it. :)
[06:52] <nopcode> i hope this "update-manager" thing doesnt need X...
[06:52] <omnid> ATI's
[06:52] <omnid> I know they don't really support Linux as much as Nvidia...
[06:52] <Salgat> Ya
[06:53] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, I can remove the RJ45 patch cable and stick in a crossover cable, but I don't know if that will swap the right pins or not
[06:53] <Warbo> omnid: They come with Ubuntu. There are 3 drivers: "ati" which is 2D, "radeon" which is 3D on some cards (like mine) and "fglrx" which is made by ATI and is non-free, but gives 3D on newer cards (but not old ones)
[06:53] <TheGame> i just wanna know how to use nzb's in pan
[06:53] <rast4_> inv_arp: waiting on HP.com to respond so I can get the exact adapter models
[06:53] <rast4_> bare with me please
[06:53] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: null modem cables are very often called cross over cables.
[06:53] <inv_Arp> rast4_: lspci
[06:53] <`m0> hmmm
[06:54] <ubuntu> well later guys
[06:54] <ubuntu> tc all
[06:54] <Salgat> later Ubuntu!!
[06:54] <`m0> I think I saw a small minor BUG
[06:54] <ubuntu> Salgat:  laters
[06:54] <`m0> When you goto Power Management!
[06:54] <jbroome> err, cross over cables are different than null modem cables.. They're also called Console cables
[06:54] <inv_Arp> TheGame: no dont think so
[06:54] <`m0> You see <b> Running on AC </b>
[06:54] <omnid> Warbo: Well I definitly wish to have 3D acceleration so I can create some models and see all those pretty screensavers at the least
[06:54] <`m0> why does it display <b> :p
[06:54] <BlueEagle> jbroome: Ehh.. you might be right.
[06:54] <BlueEagle> my bad again.
[06:54] <jbroome> :P
[06:55] <BlueEagle> Perhaps I should find that bed?
[06:55] <jbroome> i'm headed that way too
[06:55] <rast4_> inv_arp: could you elaborate on 'lspci' please?
[06:55] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, thanks for your help so far...
[06:55] <inv_Arp> it will display the card
[06:55] <phiber_optic> can somebody please help me configure my sound
[06:55] <rast4_> oh :)
[06:55] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: do you have the drivers
[06:55] <phiber_optic> inv_Arp,  in breeze it detected automatically
[06:56] <phiber_optic> and know its not working
[06:56] <kevinh90> rast4_,  "sudo lspci" it tells you about all your hardware
[06:56] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: what type of card?
[06:56] <phiber_optic> soundblaster
[06:56] <shaigirl> hi guys
[06:56] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: if you don't find anyting on 192.168.0.0/16 you could try 192.0.0.0/8 (will take very very much longer)
[06:56] <phiber_optic> 5.1 live
[06:56] <shaigirl> where can i learn about commands and stuff for ubuntu?
[06:56] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Ok, I may start that one before I go to bed myself
[06:57] <Goblyn> i don't wanna sound vague, but my firefox is going very very slow, i have godly internet, but i dunno why it's going slow, any idea's
[06:57] <rast4_> inv_arp: Realtek RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ and Broadcom BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless
[06:57] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[06:57] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: or you can try 1.0.0.0/1 which will scan half the internet (127.0.0.0/1 will scan the other half afaik)
[06:57] <inv_Arp> rast4_: the realtek doesnt work?
[06:57] <Nukez> hi
[06:57] <rast4_> no, I can't even get the "configure" tab to work, it's greyed out
[06:58] <rast4_> it won't let me switch to that adapter
[06:58] <inv_Arp> GoonSquad: told ya    usemod username -d /directory
[06:58] <Salgat> I personally have found Rute of being useful for learning commands on Linux in general Shaigirl, if you search for it in Google you'll find it, may be somewhat dated though
[06:58] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, I think I'll avoid that...If it's getting an address from my DHCP server, it'll be under the 192.168.0.0/16 scan
[06:58] <GoonSquad> inv_Arp i want it to set all the users that i create to that i dont want to have to manually type that for every user
[06:58] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: Well the switch has probably got its ip configured.
[06:58] <inv_Arp> rast4_: open a console.. type ifconfig
[06:58] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: isn't it labled behind on the switch?
[06:58] <shaigirl> ty salgat
[06:59] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: I think I saw that on the picture. Should be on the back.
[06:59] <flipfone> hi i installed xubuntu and was modding the taskbar when i deleted it. i tried removing xubuntu and reinstalling but the bar isnt there. is there an easy way to get it back?
[06:59] <shaigirl> is it me or is ubuntu way easier than Suse???
[06:59] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: it might be the mac address tho.
[06:59] <phiber_optic> inv_Arp, any ideas??
[06:59] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, That could be as well, I wish I could just wipe it's whole config and start over, but apparently I need to have console access for that
[06:59] <Nukez> hey I was wondering... I am trying to install Ubuntu and when the cd boots and tries to install the graphical installer isnt displayed... is there any way to get around this?
[06:59] <flipfone> shaigirl Ubuntu ROCKS!
[06:59] <Salgat> Seems like Ubuntu is the ultimate in easyness hehe
[06:59] <shaigirl> i've had suse 9.0 since 2004 and I couldn't do a thing with it
[06:59] <`m0> hmm
[06:59] <rast4_> inv_arp: shows eth0 and lo
[06:59] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: hold reset for 30 seconds to clear it I think I read somwhere.
[07:00] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Nope, no IP address on it anywhere...but yes, the MAC address should be there
[07:00] <`m0> how cna I get the LAptop Batter Monitor for Ubuntu ?
[07:00] <inv_Arp> GoonSquad: /etc/profile     export $HOME=/dir
[07:00] <`m0> I don't know how much battery I have left
[07:00] <rast4_> inv_arp: has inet6 addr
[07:00] <`m0> ah Never mind
[07:00] <inv_Arp> err export HOME=/dir
[07:00] <vignatti_> hi guys
[07:00] <vignatti_> how can I tell to kernel don't load a module by default?
[07:01] <Jbirk> lsmod
[07:01] <pollypocket> ok so firefox on wine doesnt seem to run. I changed the ownership on the firefox-desktop-icon to my regular user and all the permissions of the wine-firefox install appear to be world readable or executable but all owned by root. what am i missing here
[07:01] <vignatti_> Jbirk: lsmod?
[07:01] <phiber_optic> inv_Arp, any ideas??
[07:01] <Jbirk> It will list the modules
[07:01] <Jbirk> you will have to manually change them
[07:01] <Jbirk> I am not certain how to prevent a mod from loading
[07:01] <rast4_> inv_arp: this is odd too, same lan hardware on my Toshiba Satellite I believe and both that and my wireless worked out of the box, but not on this HP
[07:01] <inv_Arp> vignatti_:  when you compile it...  remove  loadable kernel module or somethin like that
[07:02] <Goblyn> i don't wanna sound vague, but my firefox is going very very slow, i have godly internet, but i dunno why it's going slow, any idea's?
[07:02] <tritium> vignatti_: blacklist it
[07:02] <shaigirl> i found a wiki to help with that rast4
[07:02] <rast4_> shaigirl: please share :)
[07:02] <shaigirl> let me get it
[07:02] <vignatti_> tritium: where can I blacklist?
[07:02] <rast4_> I love this laptop, it's the 17" widescreen
[07:02] <tritium> vignatti_: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist is the file
[07:02] <rast4_> I would love to rock ubuntu on it
[07:02] <vignatti_> tritium: tkx!
[07:02] <`m0> how do we learn about the tricks in ubuntu ?
[07:03] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: modprobe emu10k1
[07:03] <`m0> are there like mac tricks?
[07:03] <phiber_optic> inv_Arp,  thats what i did
[07:03] <vignatti_> tks guys! blacklist solve my prob
[07:03] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[07:03] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: and what happened?
[07:03] <GoonSquad> inv_Arp the way you just told me doesnt work
[07:03] <Nukez> is there a way to use the old text based installer for dapper
[07:03] <phiber_optic> FATAL: Module emu10k1 not found.
[07:03] <rast4_> inv_arp: so with the ifconfig, it shows the eth0, does that mean it's working properly or that it's properly configured?
[07:03] <pollypocket> GoonSquad: each user needs their own seperate home directory
[07:04] <`m0> Can I Remote Desktop in WIndows?
[07:04] <chungaroo> is there any way i can image my hard drive onto another hd in order to retain the os, all of my settings, and my data? i plan on upgrading my harddrive to a larger capacity and don't want to reinstall and burn endless amounts of backup data disks.
[07:04] <inv_Arp> rast4_: means the kernel dtects it... does it have an ip?
[07:04] <Jbirk> modprobe loads a module
[07:04] <Jbirk> how do you unload a module?
[07:04] <rast4_> inv_arp: just the inet6 addr
[07:04] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: hmmm, wierd   did you chge anything?
[07:04] <shaigirl> ok..this is the addy...http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[07:05] <phiber_optic> noop
[07:05] <shaigirl> you have to install ndiswrapper
[07:05] <Goblyn> i am having errors trying to get sound working under Wine, whenever i go to the audio tab to change settings, it comes up with Creating link "/home/goblyn/.kde/socket-system." "can't create mcop directory" does anyone know how to fix this?
[07:05] <inv_Arp> phiber_optic: fresh install?
[07:05] <pollypocket> ive never done this wine thing before - i need some pointers on what to do with the firefox I just installed
[07:05] <rast4_> thanks shaigirl
[07:05] <phiber_optic> yes
[07:05] <chungaroo> is anyone familiar with drive cloning/imaging?
[07:05] <rast4_> I had mad probs with ndiswrapper when it first came out, I hope it's simplified
[07:05] <phiber_optic> ill reinstall everything again if you want
[07:05] <shaigirl> oh wait rast
[07:05] <Warbo> pollypocket: It is installed into $HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox
[07:05] <shaigirl> let me find the other one
[07:05] <Nukez> Does anyone know if dapper has trouble with ati x800 video cards?
[07:05] <rast4_> ok
[07:06] <_tcc> Why might my sound just have dissapeared out of the blue?
[07:06] <_tcc> I have no audio.
[07:06] <inv_Arp> rast4_: you dont need ndis wrapper for the intel wireles card
[07:06] <_tcc> VLC crashes when I try and play music.
[07:06] <rast4_> inv_arp: what would you recommend I do at this stage?
[07:06] <tritium> rast4_: ipw2x00?  no need for ndiswrapper
[07:06] <Warbo> _tcc: Maybe something is hogging the soundcard? (like a Flash website)
[07:06] <rast4_> tritium: Realtek RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ and Broadcom BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless
[07:06] <inv_Arp> rast4_: ahh wait i scrolled up... you have broadcom...
[07:06] <_tcc> Warbo, nope
[07:07] <tritium> rast4_: ah
[07:07] <_tcc> It worked before, I install mplayer and now everything went nuts.
[07:07] <`m0> hey
[07:07] <shaigirl> i had an easier fix
[07:07] <shaigirl> i have to find it now
[07:07] <inv_Arp> rast4_: i would google search first make sure there arent any native drivers...
[07:07] <`m0> how do I access REmote Desktop from Windows within Linux
[07:07] <inv_Arp> before using ndiswrapper
[07:07] <`m0> I want to remote to my windows BOX
[07:07] <_tcc> rdesktop
[07:07] <`m0> is it included ?
[07:07] <rast4_> ok, I will wait to see what shaigirl comes up with
[07:07] <_tcc> rdesktop -5 <ip>
[07:07] <`m0> hmm ok
[07:07] <rast4_> then start from there, thanks for the help inv_arp
[07:07] <`m0> thanks
[07:07] <_tcc> yepper
[07:08] <Goblyn> i am having errors trying to get sound working under Wine, whenever i go to the audio tab to change settings, it comes up with Creating link "/home/goblyn/.kde/socket-system." "can't create mcop directory" does anyone know how to fix this?
[07:08] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: arp -s myswitch MAC-ADDRESS && ping myswitc
[07:08] <rast4_> you multitasking helpin fool ;)
[07:08] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: try that but substitute MAC-ADDRESS with the printed mac address on your switch.
[07:08] <rast4_> this is probably the most helpful channel I've ever been on in irc, and i've been around for eons
[07:08] <pollypocket> Warbo: ok so I go to that directory and and double click on firefox.exe and i get an error
[07:08] <rast4_> honestly
[07:09] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Lemme run downstairs and get the MAC
[07:09] <omnid> Warbo: So, I looked up that driver. How would I install it? I'm not sure I can tell which device in the device manger is my video card
[07:09] <pollypocket> Couldn't display "/home/grace/.wine/drive_c/Pr...s/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe".
[07:09] <_tcc> So why might sound fail randomly?
[07:09] <inv_Arp> GoonSquad: it should have... did you relogin completely?
[07:09] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: should be something like: arp -s myswitch 00:0E:50:33:08:C7 && ping myswitch
[07:10] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: ofcourse your mac addy will be different.
[07:10] <AmirMohammad> something has gone wrong w/ my keyboard settings and I dunno what's that, sometimes it get crazy, when I press 'p' it'll print 6 or something like this
[07:10] <flasher> what's a movie file format that can be easily played/viewed without too many  extra codecs?
[07:10] <AmirMohammad> I should to switch to a terminal and then come-back to X to get it working properly
[07:10] <Warbo> omnid: Look on help.ubuntu.com/community. There is a page about the non-free driver and a page I wrote about the free driver. The free one is called "RadeonDriver" and the non-free one is.....
[07:11] <Warbo> !ati > omnid
[07:11] <BlueEagle> flasher: any one format really only needs one codec (the codec for that format)
[07:11] <omnid> Oh allright
[07:11] <omnid> I'll check it out
[07:11] <Warbo> pollypocket: Try copy/pasting this into a terminal "wine C:\\Program\ Files\\Mozilla\ Firefox\\firefox.exe"
[07:12] <Warbo> flasher: Ogg/Theora works out of the box
[07:12] <flasher> BlueEagle: i ask because i'm having a hard time viewing avi files, even though i've installed mplayer and win32codecs. I'm planning on converting some avi files to a format my computer can play
[07:12] <william__> im having troubles deleting a folder
[07:12] <flasher> Warbo: is there a way to convert an AVI to ogg/theora?

[07:13] <BlueEagle> flasher: iirc mplayer (not gmplayer) spits out loads of useful stuff.
[07:13] <_tcc> My sound failed randomly.
[07:13] <capiCrimm> what can I use to compare two folder structures(i.e. see what files are missing)?
[07:13] <william__> i tried rm -d /directory but it keeps saying its a directory :S

[07:13] <flasher> BlueEagle: spit? you mean the error messages?
[07:13] <inv_Arp> william__: rm -rf /dir
[07:13] <rast4_> inv_arp: if it recognizes it in ifconfig, how come I can't change the connection in the connection properties window on my taskbar
[07:13] <BlueEagle> flasher: yes. I mean spit as in print
[07:13] <Warbo> flasher: In order for ffmpeg2theora to work it must be able to play the file. I know that ffmpeg is made by the MPlayer guys, so you may be better off focusing on getting MPlayer working

[07:14] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: what does arp -a say about myswitch?
[07:14] <_tcc> Something is wrong.

[07:16] <Johnny> i thought you could make it so you could delete files from linux on a windows partition
[07:16] <pollypocket> so a browser window still opens but it is running as root

[07:16] <pollypocket> i downloaded a file and it is owned by root
[07:16] <flasher> Warbo: sorry, not 3, but 5
[07:16] <`m0> anyone could point me where I could learn how to connect to my wireless network
[07:16] <pollypocket> does this mean I have to go to root before running anything with wine?
[07:16] <inv_Arp> Johnny: not raly think it can overwirte... but its dangerous!!  may destro ntfs partition
[07:17] <flasher> Warbo: thank you so much.
[07:17] <inv_Arp> `m0:  wireless card detected?
[07:17] <`m0> like how do I know my ESSID ?
[07:17] <Warbo> If adesklets puts itself on top of everything (even the windows which are in the "on top" layer) when run in Enlightenment 0.16.8 with Composite turned on, what the hell is that a bug in?
[07:17] <inv_Arp> `m0: iwconfig
[07:17] <`m0> I Don't understand all t his.. in Windows all networks are visible
[07:18] <inv_Arp> `m0: iwlist scanning
[07:18] <`m0> ah
[07:18] <shaigirl> your essid is in your router
[07:18] <cafuego> `m0: In linux as well, if you run NetworkManager.
[07:18] <`m0> hmm okay
[07:18] <shaigirl> do you have a linksys router???
[07:18] <`m0> No Scan REsults
[07:18] <_tcc> ok, how the hell can i debug this sound issue?
[07:18] <_tcc> i install mplayer
[07:18] <DanaG> None of the kernel compilation guides say anything about depmod.
[07:18] <_tcc> the next thing i knew, i had no sound at all
[07:18] <_tcc> mplayer stopped working
[07:18] <DanaG> I couldn't figure out why the nvidia module couldn't be found.
[07:19] <_tcc> i'm guessing it's shitty package management
[07:19] <flasher> BlueEagle: did you see the pastebin?
[07:19] <`m0> hmm
[07:19] <flasher> Warbo: how are you?
[07:19] <inv_Arp> DanaG:  demod -a  updateds module list for modprobe
[07:19] <`m0> It seems that my wireless is not connected properly
[07:19] <Warbo> flasher: Getting them
[07:19] <`m0> only eth1 is available
[07:19] <flasher> Warbo: thank you very much.
[07:19] <inv_Arp> `m0: ifconfig -a
[07:19] <BlueEagle> flasher: I did.
[07:19] <flasher> BlueEagle: what do you think the error is?
[07:20] <BlueEagle> flasher: Doesn't seem to be a problem with the codec.
[07:20] <flasher> i had already installed w32codecs.
[07:20] <flasher> BlueEagle: hmmm. ok. then what is the problem, i wonder
[07:20] <BlueEagle> flasher: try this: mplayer -vo gl2 wpegg.avi
[07:20] <`m0> inv_Arp: how do I know if it is my wireless adapter?
[07:20] <BlueEagle> flasher: Sais "Insufficient resources".
[07:20] <`m0> i think it is wirless
[07:20] <inv_Arp> `m0: what do you see besides eth0
[07:20] <BlueEagle> flasher: so the X11 video output doesn't seem to work too well. :/
[07:21] <flasher> BlueEagle: it works!
[07:21] <flasher> mplayer -vo gl2 wpegg.avi <--- works
[07:21] <shaigirl> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=ndiswrapper
[07:21] <flasher> but no sound
[07:21] <`m0> i see
[07:21] <BlueEagle> flasher: well there you go. You just need a different video output. :)
[07:21] <flasher> do you hear sound?
[07:21] <shaigirl> that will help you install your wireless
[07:21] <`m0> eth0 eth1 lo sit0
[07:21] <BlueEagle> flasher: There doesn't seem to be any sound in the video file.
[07:21] <flasher> how can i make this my default video output
[07:21] <Johnny> when mounting a windows partition  what does nls=utf8,umask=0222 mean?
[07:21] <pollypocket> so if I run that "wine C:\\Program\ Files\\Mozilla\ Firefox\\firefox.exe" as the regular user I get permission denied so that means only root can run FireFox. how do I fix that?
[07:21] <`m0> inv_Arp: eth0 eth1 lo sit0
[07:21] <flasher> BlueEagle: did you download it from the website?
[07:21] <DanaG> How can I rename eth1 to wlan0?
[07:21] <shaigirl> if you run automatix, it will install ndiswrapper too
[07:21] <Warbo> flasher: I find a common problem with MPlayer (when running gmplayer) is that the video output needs to be set to X11
[07:21] <BlueEagle> flasher: AVI_NI: No audio stream found -> no sound.
[07:21] <BlueEagle> flasher: I haven't downloaded the file in question, no.
[07:21] <inv_Arp> `m0: doesnt detect your card..
[07:22] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, I'm going to bed.  I'll work on this later.  Thanks again
[07:22] <inv_Arp> DanaG: why?
[07:22] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: np
[07:22] <_tcc> Where can i get that nifty looking mac style toolbar?
[07:22] <_tcc> http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=3252&size=big&cat=2
[07:22] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: sorry I couldn't find your switch tho.
[07:22] <pollypocket> DanaG I would say you cant
[07:22] <flasher> Warbo: i don't know if i'm runing gmplayer or mplayer. I think i'm running mplayer, because that's the command i run in terminal
[07:22] <fyrestrtr> Johnny: nls is the character encoding for the file names, umask defines the default permissions that all files will get, its a bitwise filter.
[07:22] <`m0> inv_Arp: BUT...  I see two different Hardware Addresses
[07:22] <DanaG> It's just cosmetic.
[07:22] <flasher> so how can i set video output to right one?
[07:22] <rast4_> shaigirl: I need access to the repository, and I can't get my lan working on it either
[07:22] <rast4_> :(
[07:22] <pollypocket> DanaG: at best it will break something else even if you could
[07:22] <rast4_> that's what the guide states anyhow
[07:22] <flasher> BlueEagle: is it really in slowmotion?
[07:22] <BlueEagle> flasher: man mplayer
[07:22] <shaigirl> I hard wired mine first
[07:22] <Warbo> flasher: gmplayer is a GUI for mplayer, they are in the same package. Try running it, since you get a preferences window where you can save your settings
[07:22] <inv_Arp> `m0: wireless is wlanX
[07:22] <flasher> or is it my slow/old computer?
[07:22] <Johnny> what does umask 0222 stand for fyrestrtr ?
[07:23] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, it's not really your fault or your problem. :)  Thanks for the help
[07:23] <shaigirl> you need to download some stuff I think
[07:23] <pollypocket> DanaG no its not
[07:23] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[07:23] <rast4_> I have mine hard wired now, but it's not working
[07:23] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: any time. :)
[07:23] <GoonSquad> is there a way to set a default home folder for all users that you create ?
[07:23] <_tcc> am i muted in this channel or some shit?
[07:23] <`m0> inv_Arp: why do I have two different hardware address then
[07:23] <rast4_> I can't configure it
[07:23] <rast4_> so obviously it isn't working properly
[07:23] <rast4_> :(
[07:23] <rast4_> it's a Realtek too
[07:23] <shaigirl> ohhhhhhhhhhh
[07:23] <Warbo> GoonSquad: That folder is called /etc/skel. There is a tool to GUI configure it somewhere
[07:23] <pollypocket> DanaG: device ids are not random or cosmetic
[07:23] <shaigirl> i think that fix is primarily for broadcom

[07:24] <inv_Arp> `m0: hmm paste your ifconfig -a  on http://pastebin.ca
[07:24] <_tcc> I can never reach a level of that GUI mastery.

[07:25] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-users/200106/msg00159.html might apply
[07:25] <omnid> How do I save a nano program thing
[07:25] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: if you've got a router you can log into perhaps you can find the machine there.
[07:25] <flasher> BlueEagle: you said mplayer -vo gl2 wpegg.avi, but i don't have GL on my old box. should i change that command to something else?
[07:25] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: (look for a routing table)
[07:25] <omnid> It seems like a text file of sorts

[07:26] <BlueEagle> flasher: I really do not know. type. mplayer --help vo
[07:26] <BlueEagle> flasher: and man mplayer
[07:26] <omnid> I tried ctrl+S and it got rid of XOFF?
[07:26] <BlueEagle> flasher: and read the documentation.
[07:26] <flasher> BlueEagle: that's a lot of documentation!!!
[07:26] <flasher> 8-)

[07:27] <Sdsfs> I wanna know I have 25 GB partition and I wanna install Ubuntu without thouching my 67 GB Windows Partition, when you install Ubuntu and Grub does grub touch the Windows partition?
[07:28] <omnid> ooooh thanks Flannel
[07:28] <omnid> Did not know that was save
[07:28] <fyrestrtr> Sdsfs: no
[07:28] <Warbo> Sdsfs: Not the partition, only the MBR (Master Boot Record)
[07:28] <flasher> Warbo: yes, i changed to x11. it works faster than gl (which is like slow-motion)
[07:28] <inv_Arp> Sdsfs: no...  the mbr to give you a choice
[07:28] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: another thing.
[07:28] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Yup?
[07:28] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: are you able to reach other machines connected to that switch?
[07:28] <flasher> if i change the settings there, will the settings in xfmedia also be updated?
[07:28] <flasher> Warbo: thank you!
[07:28] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Yes
[07:28] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: did you try to traceroute that other machine?
[07:29] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, No, I haven't...
[07:29] <Edwar1> Hello all.
[07:29] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: traceroute ip.to.other.machine
[07:29] <Warbo> Dammit encoding video takes a while
[07:29] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: you might need to install traceroute package.
[07:29] <Edwar1> Got a question about ATI driver for a laptop
[07:30] <`m0> Hmm, I see In NEtwork Settings:  Wireless Connnection The interface eth1 is active
[07:30] <`m0> But I cnanot connect
[07:30] <`m0> any ideas why
[07:30] <flasher> if i make mplayer play movie files in full screen, it requires less "power", yes?
[07:30] <Warbo> flasher: By the way, the OGG videos are playing a little slow on my system. That is probably just because of my composite stuff though
[07:30] <DanaG> Where is the boot log?
[07:30] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: or rather: tracepath ip.to.other.machine
[07:30] <kleedrac> I tried installing suspend2 last night but it broke a bunch of things ... is there any way to get back to where I was?  Can I reinstall everything somehow (without reinstalling the OS itself?)
[07:30] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: tracepath should be installed by default.
[07:30] <DanaG> I keep getting some message at boot that I want to ask about, but it's not in dmesg.
[07:30] <shaigirl> hi edwar
[07:30] <Edwar1> fglrxinfo display mesa stuff. not ATI..
[07:30] <Warbo> DanaG: There is no log of the boot, only of the kernel (which is "dmesg")
[07:30] <Edwar1> Hi..
[07:31] <DanaG> I get something about how the MBR or boot sector (I forget which it said) is not as expected.
[07:31] <_tcc> i need freaking sound
[07:31] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: now you might not get the ip of the switch since it's just a switch and not really a router but it being a superstacker one never knows.
[07:31] <Edwar1> _tcc installed audio codecs?
[07:31] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: atleast you might try to tracepath it and then run arp -a afterwards.
[07:32] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, With tracepath I get a bunch of no replys
[07:32] <_tcc> Edwar1, I don't know, it took me totally by surprise.
[07:32] <`m0> what do you guys use for IRC on ubuntu?
[07:32] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: o'rly?

[07:32] <jivenix> is the best imho
[07:32] <_tcc> I install mplayer.
[07:32] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: do you get anything but no replies?
[07:32] <`m0> ah k
[07:32] <KenSentMe> `m0: irssi
[07:32] <jivenix> irssi is hard to use
[07:32] <jivenix> too hard for me
[07:32] <SurfnKid> not its not
[07:32] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Well, it shows my machine as the sorce, then nothing but no reply
[07:32] <flasher> Warbo: i see
[07:32] <jivenix> rocket scientist client
[07:32] <SurfnKid> irssi is the shizzo
[07:32] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Over and over
[07:32] <BlueEagle> jivenix: Well it's just a matter of practice.
[07:32] <BlueEagle> jivenix: It grows on you. I can promise that.
[07:33] <DanaG> ooh, /var/log/debug -- that
[07:33] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: ok then. :/
[07:33] <DanaG> that's it.
[07:33] <BlueEagle> drbanzai: and arp -a still doesn't reveal a switch?
[07:33] <DanaG> er, not quite.
[07:33] <Warbo> flasher: Know where I can upload these to when they are all done?
[07:33] <DrBanzai> BlueEagle, Nope, arp -a only shows my box and my GF's box
[07:34] <pollypocket> ok so I have to uninstall firefox and re-install it. how do I use wine to uninstall firefox ?

[07:34] <`m0> hmm, Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock/

[07:36] <flasher> woud it be slow?
[07:36] <`m0> and placed my password and it says authentication failure....
[07:36] <Warbo> flasher: Probably
[07:36] <`m0> This is strange..... I did su root and placed my password and it says authentication failure..... When installing ubuntu it said place my password, and I did. Why can;t I login with root under my password?
[07:36] <johnnyg> Madpilot: yeah, but when I booted after being 50% done, then clicked on the same torrent, it didn't resume, it started over
[07:36] <flasher> Warbo: shall we try one file?
[07:36] <due> `m0: There is no rood account.
[07:36] <`m0> hmm
[07:36] <johnnyg> Madpilot: if I could have opened the app and said "Resume" I would be better off
[07:37] <`m0> why does it say unable to lock the adminstration directory , are you root? when I use apt-get
[07:37] <Madpilot> johnnyg, odd, it should have resumed...
[07:37] <due> `m0: sudo
[07:37] <due> !rootsudo > `m0
[07:37] <Madpilot> `m0, "sudo apt-get..." should work
[07:37] <johnnyg> Madpilot: even though I redownloaded the torrent and said "open with Bittorrent"?
[07:38] <pollypocket> does wine have a gui of some kind
[07:38] <Warbo> flasher: How?
[07:38] <Madpilot> johnnyg, if you redownloaded the torrent, it might not have resumed.. it should with an existing torrent
[07:38] <Warbo> pollypocket: "winecfg"
[07:38] <`m0> ah thanks Madpilot
[07:38] <`m0> so in ubuntu its sudo all the time?
[07:38] <Madpilot> `m0, yes - check the PM you got from ubotu for a URL
[07:38] <pollypocket> the uninstall.exe did not seem to do very much. all the files and directories are still there
[07:39] <Warbo> pollypocket: Then it must be dodgy way of managing software. Maybe if it was all put in packages....
[07:39] <johnnyg> Madpilot: Is there no way to add BitTorrent to my menu? Would I be better off just installing Az or the like?
[07:39] <flasher> Warbo: sorry for the wait. please go to www.yousendit.com. then pass on the URL for download
[07:39] <`m0> ah okay
[07:39] <`m0> I did this sudo apt-get install irssi
[07:40] <flasher> Warbo: you can tar all the files together to make it more convenient, if you like.
[07:40] <`m0> and it says irssi already the newest version
[07:40] <`m0> 0 newly installed
[07:40] <`m0> but I don't see it installed
[07:40] <Madpilot> johnnyg, you probably can add it - right-click on the Application menu's title, choose "Edit Menus" and add it
[07:40] <DanaG> Argh, now I have a redundant "Debian" submenu in my Gnome menu.
[07:40] <`m0> how do I run irssi then?
[07:41] <`m0> I did sudo apt-get install irssi
[07:41] <Madpilot> johnnyg, actually, all you have to do is make BitTorrent visible - it's there in the menu,but turned off
[07:41] <due> `m0: er, "irssi".
[07:41] <jivenix> type irssi & at the command
[07:41] <jivenix> console
[07:41] <Madpilot> `m0, it's installed by default, start it thru the terminal
[07:41] <`m0> where does it install the programs?
[07:41] <johnnyg> Madpilot: that worked, thank you :)
[07:41] <Madpilot> `m0, apt-get puts them whereever they need to go
[07:42] <poison> anyone using mutt
[07:42] <jivenix> i wish i had an apt-get for life

[07:50] <Warbo> `m0: The package file will be in /var/cache/apt/archives. The program is installed like usual (/etc, /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib, etc.)
[07:50] <`m0> I need to place it in the theme folder of irssi
[07:50] <Flannel> `m0: ah, you'll probably want to put it in your home folder

[07:56] <omnid> Warbo: seems the radeon driver does not work
[07:57] <omnid> I found out my card is a Radeon Xpress 200M though

[07:59] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : System > Preferences > Keyboard
[07:59] <FirstStrike> I know you can at least swap around your ctrl key
[07:59] <ivx> can someone help me with ndis wrapper
[07:59] <_tcc> i have just tore my gui apart
[07:59] <_tcc> it's destroyed
[07:59] <FirstStrike> congrats
[07:59] <_tcc> hideous beast
[08:00] <allen> hey
[08:00] <allen> whoats up?
[08:00] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: yes, I'm looking at those options, but none of them seem to involve the Fn key
[08:02] <DanaG> Geez, Compiz really screws with the Xpenguins!
[08:02] <Warbo> No! Think of the penguins!
[08:02] <_tcc> Does anyone have a GUI tutorial/
[08:02] <_tcc> I want a nice UI but, I cannot do it.
[08:02] <Warbo> In my experisnce Compiz doesn't like the root window
[08:02] <DanaG> It makes windows move around under them/
[08:02] <_tcc> I just _destroyed_ mine.
[08:03] <Warbo> _tcc: It obviously depends what you are programming in
[08:03] <DanaG> I wish I could turn off falling damage.
[08:03] <DShepherd> _tcc: what do mean you destroyed yours?
[08:04] <Warbo> "rm -r MyAmazingGUIProgram"
[08:04] <_tcc> it's disgusting
[08:05] <Warbo> _tcc: Check out the GNOME HIG (Human Interface Guidelines) if you want to get uber-GUI
[08:05] <DanaG> I'm so irritated at the blatant OVERUSE of the Vista themes.
[08:06] <DShepherd> Warbo: what is he displeased with? the default look of gnome?
[08:06] <rast4_> Vista sucks ass (just as a side note)
[08:06] <rast4_> very overrated
[08:06] <DShepherd> DanaG: close your eyes
[08:06] <flasher> Warbo:  thanks.
[08:06] <Warbo> DShepherd: He says he has "just tore my gui apart"#
[08:06] <flasher> Warbo: are ogg naturally smaller in filesize?
[08:06] <eternalswd> DanaG, I agree Vista's ugly IMO
[08:07] <Warbo> flasher: They are basically comparable to MP4
[08:07] <flasher> Warbo: coz i was expecting a total filesize of about 30mb, not 17
[08:07] <_tcc> Nonono
[08:07] <DShepherd> flasher: i think they are little bigger than mp3s
[08:07] <DanaG> It's not ugly, I just hate not-right wannabe themes.
[08:07] <_tcc> I'm not creating an application.
[08:07] <DanaG> Just like the wannabe Apple themes for Windowblinds.
[08:07] <_tcc> I want to beef up this GUI.
[08:07] <flasher> DShepherd: i mean ogg videos
[08:07] <Warbo> flasher: Well Ogg uses quality settings rather than bitrates (since the bitrate is variable) so I guessed about 5 should do
[08:07] <DanaG> I use the "Eminence" theme in Windowblinds in XP.
[08:07] <DShepherd> flasher: oh.. ok.. as you were :-D
[08:08] <flasher> Warbo: ok.
[08:08] <Warbo> I actually found those videos played slow, but that is probably my Composite and AIGLX. There are apparently settings I can change
[08:09] <flasher> oh, man, i can't see them
[08:09] <flasher> i hear some soounds though
[08:09] <kleedrac> OK ... so I recovered from my suspend2 issue :)
[08:09] <Warbo> flasher: Hm? I tired them in Totem and MPlayer
[08:09] <flasher> but if i can't view them by doubleclicking, i'll do the mplayer trick
[08:09] <flasher> Warbo: i meant xfmeda
[08:09] <flasher> xfmedia
[08:09] <Warbo> I've never used that
[08:10] <flasher> Warbo: yeah, coz it's for xubuntu
[08:10] <kleedrac> New problem (well minor annoyance really) is that I'm using the SLED menu from the compiz repo and my favorites list is shortened to 6 entries on boot/resume and when I remove/readd a favorite from the list my whole list shows up, anyone know a reason why this could be?
[08:10] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : From what I've read it looks like you'd have to compile a kernel with the new kep mappings
[08:10] <Warbo> Yeah, I hate XFCE for some reason (probably lack of complete-master-of-the-universe control [mind you, I also dislike KDE] )
[08:11] <flasher> Warbo: i had to switch because of my old comp
[08:11] <FirstStrike> actually
[08:11] <flasher> switch from gnome to kfce, i mean
[08:11] <Warbo> flasher: Understandable. I generally use Fluxbox on slow machines, but that is one step up from command line :)
[08:12] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : are you running gnome?
[08:13] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: wow, I didn't realize the position of the Fn key is coded into the kernel. Yes, I'm running Gnome.
[08:14] <FirstStrike> on gnome only (won't work on kde) you can run a script to do it
[08:14] <stratking> I'm trying to get my wireless running, Network Settings shows that it is active, Network Monitor shows that it has 77% signal, but it stays disconnected
[08:15] <stratking> I'm not understanding the whole active but not connected and how I go about connecting it
[08:15] <DanaG> FN key is BIOS in most laptops.
[08:15] <DanaG> You're lucky it's not.
[08:16] <`m0> how do I know what packages there is in apt-get?
[08:16] <Warbo> `m0: Use aptitude
[08:16] <m0> ah k
[08:17] <poison> what do you mean? you mean whats out there? if so apt-cache search and whatever you are searching for or use aptitude or synaptic
[08:17] <DanaG> yay, my custom kernel boots.
[08:17] <DanaG> Still no speedstep-centrino, though.
[08:17] <DanaG> No VID/FID tables for Yonah.
[08:18] <eternalswd> DanaG, Eminence looks decent, I myself use Reflex http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/35598913/?qo=7&q=by%3Anavigatsio+sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps  as well as Immortalized-MMD3 in Litestep
[08:18] <m0> is Eclipse installed?
[08:19] <eternalswd> and I use Black in Gnome, I like the darker themes
[08:19] <DanaG> My only gripe about Eminence is that double-clicking th "system menu" button does NOT close the window/

[08:21] <eternalswd> my only gripe about Reflex is that selected text is not easily distinguishable from nonselected text.  I'll fix it one of these days in skin studio
[08:21] <eternalswd> okay, enough non-Ubuntu stuff from me ;)
[08:22] <floppyears> anybody ?
[08:22] <Warbo> floppyears: Epiphany downloads files to $HOME and opens them by default. Epiphany is cool :)

[08:26] <eternalswd> proselyte, which  wireless adapter do you have?
[08:26] <floppyears> but I can't change the automatic action that firefox does

[08:35] <proselyte> what adapter?
[08:36] <eternalswd> rgie, sites like youtube and google videos don't work very well in linux's flash 7, you'd be better of going the Wine -> Firefox -> Flash 9 route

[08:37] <eternalswd> rgie, even if you get sound to work it will be off-sync after about 5 seconds, you'll be able to really tell a difference if longer than 30 seconds

[08:38] <rgie> eternalswd, so how can i fix this

[08:39] <vanden> (bump) Hi. Fairly new to Linux. I know how to change permissions on existing files. But how do I change the default permissions given to new files? (I'm tired of creating documents, then having to change them to not be readable by others.)
[08:39] <McNutella> even when I install Java runtime, it still doesnt seem to want to work. Has anyone had this problem and been able to fix it ?
[08:40] <eternalswd> rgie, if you want sound through linux's flash go to http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1387697&postcount=9
[08:40] <rast4_> what I'm stuck at, is since I extracted them, do I need to specify somewhere to associate the driver with the adapter?
[08:40] <rgie> eternalswd, ok tenks ill check the links
[08:40] <_tcc> Where does GNOME look for the wallpaper?
[08:40] <eternalswd> rgie, but if you want everything in sync and be able to see those Flash 9 only sites, you'll need to go through wine
[08:45] <eternalswd> rast4_ http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902
[08:45] <McNutella> has anyone else had problems installing and using Java runtime? Ive tried so many times
[08:45] <BlueEagle> rast4_: no the file should be in /lib/firmware/ where it belongs.
[08:45] <schasi> Is there something like the debian volatile repository for ubuntu?
[08:45] <rast4_> what do I do with the file though
[08:45] <poison> anyone know why fetchmail would pull down the same message multiple times using fetchmail -k -d 600 I am using the -k because I want to keep the mail on the server.
[08:45] <BlueEagle> rast4_: now all you should need to do is reload the driver
[08:45] <rast4_> once I find it
[08:45] <rast4_> that's where I'm stuck, reloading the driver
[08:46] <eternalswd> McNutella, what sorts of problems are you having?
[08:46] <BlueEagle> rast4_: sudo modbrobe -u bcm43xx && sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[08:46] <BlueEagle> rast4_: that might help
[08:46] <sproingie> McNutella: i don't bother with apt when installing java, i just download it from sun, install it manually, and use galternatives to point java at it
[08:46] <McNutella> eternalswd, even with installing it, sites that need it dont seem to be able to use it
[08:46] <ivx> hey my wifi card is showing up as eth1 and not wlan0 does anyone know why and how to get it to work. for eth1 it says the card and all the correct specs
[08:46] <rast4_> eternalswd: I'm trying to install w/o NdisWrapper
[08:46] <eternalswd> McNutella, you probably need the Java plugin for your browser
[08:47] <BlueEagle> rast4_: make that: sudo modbrobe -r bcm43xx && sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[08:47] <sproingie> McNutella: install the JRE from sun.com, then create a symlink from the plugin .so to firefox's plugin directory
[08:47] <BlueEagle> -r for remove not -u for uninstall (which I guessed :p)
[08:47] <sproingie> McNutella: don't copy the .so, use a symlink.  i made that mistake a couple times
[08:47] <BlueEagle> and the typos...
[08:47] <BlueEagle> rast4_: make that: sudo modprobe -r bcm43xx && sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[08:47] <McNutella> I dont know how to do that sproingie
[08:47] <rast4_> invalid option -u
[08:47] <rast4_> ty
[08:47] <rast4_> :D
[08:48] <sproingie> McNutella: there's probably an an apt installable thingamajigie that does it then.  when it comes to java, i find apt to be too much bother
[08:48] <rast4_> ok so I did that
[08:48] <rast4_> that's all I have to do?l
[08:48] <rast4_> it's reloaded?
[08:48] <BlueEagle> rast4_: well it should be.
[08:48] <rast4_> man I hate being a *nix noob
[08:48] <BlueEagle> rast4_: what does iwconfig have to say about your wireless now?
[08:48] <rast4_> so reboot and I should be ok
[08:48] <rast4_> let me check
[08:49] <BlueEagle> rast4_: well in theory you should not need to reboot.
[08:49] <rast4_> oooh baby! eth1
[08:49] <rast4_> :P
[08:49] <rast4_> you guys rock
[08:49] <_tcc> Where does GNOME look for the backgroundS?
[08:49] <rast4_> lemme reboot and see what happens
[08:50] <BlueEagle> _tcc: /usr/share/somwhere
[08:50] <BlueEagle> rast4_: you do that
[08:50] <_tcc> orly?
[08:51] <BlueEagle> _tcc: yes. Like /usr/share/backgrounds perhaps
[08:51] <ivx> blue eagle can you help me with my wifi card also
[08:51] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: sorry I got pulled away from the keyboard there; I've been googling around for this but can't find much. Do you know where I can go to get started with this script?
[08:51] <BlueEagle> ivx: That depends on what the problem with it is.
[08:52] <BlueEagle> ivx: Keep in mind that I do not own any wireless network cards and have never set one up myself. :)
[08:52] <ivx> well iwconfig and it shows up as eth1
[08:52] <BlueEagle> ...but?
[08:52] <DanaG> ivx: same issue here for me/
[08:52] <DanaG> It's just cosmetic, but it bugs me.
[08:53] <DanaG> I don't even USE my WiFi card, though.
[08:53] <ivx> it won't it won't activate blueeagle
[08:53] <BlueEagle> ivx: I see.
[08:53] <BlueEagle> ivx: run this command in the terminal: lspci|grep wireless
[08:53] <rast4_> something isn't right
[08:53] <_tcc> Hrm, isn't it supposed to "just work" in Ubuntu?
[08:53] <BlueEagle> ivx: if it returns a line tell me what it is.
[08:53] <BlueEagle> rast4_: lsmod|grep bcm43xx
[08:54] <ivx> blueeagle it does not return anything
[08:54] <BlueEagle> ivx: if it doesn't then tell me that it didn't return a line.
[08:54] <eternalswd> McNutella, try http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[08:54] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : i've been checking it out but nothing has pointed me in the direction of the Fn key. I'm not a mac user..but after researching it I don't think it can be changed because it's apparently in the bios.
[08:54] <BlueEagle> ivx: ok. Try: lspci
[08:54] <BlueEagle> ivx: look for something that sais network and is not your regular network card.
[08:54] <rast4_> BlueEagle: what am I looking for in this info?
[08:54] <BlueEagle> rast4_: did that give you anything?
[08:54] <DanaG> 0000:03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 4222 (rev 02)
[08:54] <DanaG> in my case.
[08:55] <rast4_> BlueEagle: gace me 3 entries
[08:55] <rast4_> gave*
[08:55] <BlueEagle> rast4_: hmm.. then you should (in theory) be set.
[08:55] <eternalswd> FirstStrike, what are you trying to do with the Fn key?
[08:55] <rast4_> hmm
[08:55] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: ok ... but I'm not a Mac user (this is a Gateway laptop). Do you think the Fn key will still be controlled from the BioS?
[08:55] <BlueEagle> rast4_: have you got gnome-network-manager running?
[08:55] <BlueEagle> rast4_: make that network-manager-gnome
[08:55] <rast4_> unsure?
[08:55] <lasindi[lappy] > eternalswd: actually he's trying to help me remap the Fn key
[08:55] <ivx> blueeagle it says all the specs about my card it says network controller than the chip and stuff
[08:56] <rast4_> I've just been going through System > Admin > Network
[08:56] <_tcc> So many Gonzoz
[08:56] <BlueEagle> ivx: I need to know which chip and stuff it is. Since it is just one line you can paste it here.
[08:57] <ivx> 0000:06:02.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[08:57] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : try running xmodmap in a command prompt
[08:57] <BlueEagle> ivx: same card as rast4_ then.
[08:58] <ivx> blueeagle i logged in and just got the end of that
[08:58] <DanaG> On my Gateway, Fn is in BIOS.
[08:58] <BlueEagle> ivx: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear has got instructions on how to extract the firmware from your windows drivers and install them in ubuntu.
[08:58] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: do you want me to pastebin that?
[08:58] <BlueEagle> ivx: however rast4_ didn't get it working properly :/
[08:58] <FirstStrike> yes
[08:58] <DanaG> However, once I set the keyboard layout to "emachines", the XF86AudioPlay and such keys work.
[08:58] <rast4_> and I need this to work like deserts need rain
[08:58] <rast4_> :(
[08:59] <ivx> blueeagle i read stuff where tons of people got it working but i haven't had good sucess
[08:59] <lasindi[lappy] > http://rafb.net/paste/results/569shd49.html
[08:59] <McNutella> ive forgotton how to use .bin files
[09:00] <lasindi[lappy] > DanaG: my Fn key works fine; the problem is that I don't like its location
[09:00] <_w^x_> anyone familar with otr for gaim and have the vulnerabilities highlighted in the Mario Di Raimondo, Rosario Gennaro, and Hugo Krawczyk paper been addressed?
[09:00] <_w^x_> here's a link
[09:00] <_w^x_> http://www.marioland.it/papers/otr.pdf
[09:00] <jn> sup
[09:00] <_w^x_> to the paper
[09:00] <jn> im haivng problems getting mplayer or vlc to utilize their "always on top" feature
[09:01] <BlueEagle> ivx: Well since I do not own any wireless network cards I am not able to help you. I'm sorry.
[09:01] <BlueEagle> ivx: if you tried this how to (2/3 success rate approx) and it didn't work then you're one fo the last third.
[09:01] <ivx> blueeagle thank you for giving it a shot
[09:01] <jn> im also interested in using more than one wifi connection at the same time
[09:01] <DanaG> Well, I don't think FN can be moved.
[09:01] <McNutella> what is the command to use .bin files please?
[09:01] <BlueEagle> ivx: np
[09:01] <Madpilot> _w^x_, I think there's a gaim channel here - try #gaim
[09:02] <jason2oo2> hey all
[09:02] <jn> hello
[09:02] <McNutella> !.bin
[09:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:02] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: ./filename.bin
[09:02] <McNutella> fyre thats what I thought but it doesnt seem to want to do anything
[09:03] <jason2oo2> just a quick q. as i been googling too much, anyone have any tuts/how to's for a rt2500 wifi card?
[09:03] <znafets> McNutella: first chmod a+x <filename>, then ./<filename>
[09:03] <eternalswd> McNutella make sure it's executable
[09:03] <BlueEagle> danag: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2377575 might help you (it seems to be the same NIC)
[09:03] <rast4_> yeah this is weird, says the connection is active, but I have no wireless monitor
[09:03] <McNutella> znafets, eternalswd, thanks ;)
[09:04] <rast4_> it won't let me switch from eth0 to eth1 (which is my wireless) in connection properties
[09:04] <rast4_> because apparently it isn't configured
[09:04] <BlueEagle> danag: as a basic rule: googling the string given from lspci for the relevant hardware often throws up a solution. :)
[09:04] <DanaG> My WiFi works, I just want it to be wlan0.\
[09:04] <DanaG> s/,/;/
[09:05] <McNutella> where should I move the jre1.5.0_08 directory to? it seemed to just unpack it where I downloaded the .bin to
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> DanaG: why?
[09:05] <DanaG> It's an ipw3945abg.
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> !java > McNutella
[09:05] <DanaG> Cosmetics, that's all.
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: you don't need to move anything around, java is available from the repositories. Read the message from ubotu
[09:06] <DanaG> What I *am* having issues with is the DHCP client.
[09:06] <McNutella> fyrestrtr, yes I know this, but I always had problems with using it after installing from respositories and im trying to see if anyone had any other solutions
[09:06] <DanaG> Namely, it doesn't work.
[09:06] <jason2oo2> i recently got a MSI CB54G2
[09:06] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: what problems? I haven't got any issues. You need to set it up after you install it. sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:06] <DanaG> In SuSE, I had to check "always request broadcast response", but I can't find that setting manually.
[09:07] <Gonzo> can grub load  my usb keyboard
[09:07] <Gonzo> ?
[09:07] <pollypocket> DanaG: what is your dhcp server
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> Gonzo: grub has nothing to do with that.
[09:07] <DanaG> It's my router.
[09:07] <McNutella> fyrestrtr, and which alternative do I use?
[09:07] <DanaG> RP614V3.
[09:07] <DanaG> (Netgear.)
[09:07] <eternalswd> rast4_ see if xev can tell you anything useful when you press your Fn key
[09:07] <Gonzo> fyrestrtr:  then what does?
[09:07] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: the one that has 'sun' in the name :) You have to install it first.
[09:08] <Gonzo> (assuming my bios does not load it)
[09:08] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: I can guess a little about what the output means, but how can it help with writing the script?
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> Gonzo: your keyboard manufacturer.
[09:08] <McNutella> fyrestrtr, Im sure I did all this before, yet firefox still seems to complain that I dont have java installed
[09:08] <jn> is it possible to get pcf working in gnome-terminal or any gtk envoirment for that matter, id like to use sabvga.pcf font
[09:08] <rast4_> OMG LMFAO
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: you need to install the plugin too.
[09:08] <rast4_> I totally forgot that I have a wireless button
[09:09] <floppyears> hi
[09:09] <Gonzo> i dont have access to him...
[09:09] <rast4_> eternalswd thanks lol
[09:09] <floppyears> I'm using compiz
[09:09] <McNutella> fyrestrtr, will this be on the firefox extensions page?
[09:09] <floppyears> and I would like to map a script that I wrote to a some key combinations
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: ermm, did you read what the bot said?
[09:09] <fyrestrtr> !java
[09:09] <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
[09:09] <floppyears> how can I do this ?
[09:09] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : generally, you can modify that script to remap keys. however, the Fn key sends out a different key code depending on what combo of keys is used.
[09:10] <ivx> blueeagle my wifi card light just light up! i'm not done yet though but i might hold my breath
[09:10] <fyrestrtr> McNutella: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[09:10] <DanaG> OOpsie, in my zeal over the new kernel, I forgot to add ipw3945
[09:10] <pollypocket> DanaG: it could be your /etc/network/interfaces file
[09:11] <znafets> McNutella: you can also just create a link to the libjavaplugin_oji.so in the plugin dir
[09:11] <lasindi[lappy] > FirstStrike: xmodmap is a script? (on my machine it appears to be a binary file)
[09:11] <pollypocket> I had to add an auto eth0 in there
[09:11] <FirstStrike> aha
[09:11] <FirstStrike> lasindi[lappy] : http://www.screamingelectron.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-1639.html
[09:12] <DanaG> argh, there is no source for ipw3945.
[09:12] <rast4_> I still can't switch to my wth1 wireless in connection properties damnit
[09:12] <rast4_> eth1*
[09:12] <floppyears> anybody ?
[09:12] <DanaG> arfgh.
[09:13] <DanaG> BARGarrrgh.
[09:13] <pollypocket> DanaG: what up with your dhcp and interfaces file
[09:13] <FirstStrike> rast4_: ubuntu's not recognizing your ethernet card?
[09:13] <FirstStrike> every now and then it won't recognize mine but a reboot fixes it
[09:13] <rast4_> FirstStrike: it recognizes both of them, but it won't let me use the wireless
[09:13] <FirstStrike> ah
[09:13] <rast4_> only hard wired is working
[09:14] <rast4_> says wireless is active
[09:14] <FirstStrike> the 2.6.17 kernel has some fixes for wireless. you might give that a try.
[09:14] <rast4_> I think I just upgraded to that
[09:14] <rast4_> I did the 686 from 386 upgrade
[09:14] <DanaG> auto lo  ||  iface lo inet loopback  ||  iface eth0 inet static  ||  address 192.168.0.9  ||  netmask 255.255.255.0  ||  gateway 192.168.0.1  ||  auto eth0
[09:14] <DanaG> Consolidated to one line.
[09:14] <FirstStrike> type uname -r in a console rast4_
[09:15] <DanaG> I have my IP set to manual for now.
[09:15] <rast4_> k
[09:15] <DanaG> This is wired, by the way.
[09:15] <pollypocket> auto eth0
[09:15] <pollypocket> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[09:15] <DanaG> Now, how does the DHCP config work?
[09:15] <rast4_> 2.6.15-26-686
[09:15] <rast4_> where is the new one?
[09:15] <rast4_> Synaptic?
[09:15] <FirstStrike> no
[09:15] <pollypocket> thats what you need to auto (from start) dhcp assign the interface
[09:15] <FirstStrike> you have to compile it
[09:15] <rast4_> that doesn't sound fun
[09:15] <eternalswd> floppyears, don't know if this'll work with compiz, but run gconf-editor and under apps under metacity you can create shortcuts using the global_keybindings and keybinding_commands just make sure that you do the same command number in each
[09:15] <rast4_> :(
[09:15] <FirstStrike> it's actually easy
[09:16] <rast4_> is there an how-to
[09:16] <FirstStrike> there's a guide in the how to forum that holds your hand all the way through it.
[09:16] <DanaG> The problem is, the dhcp client fails to obtain an address.
[09:16] <rast4_> ok I will search for it, thanks
[09:16] <FirstStrike> just, make sure you change 2.6.17.7 to 2.6.17.8 as that's the newest stable version of the kernel
[09:16] <DanaG> I don't want to try it right now -- it will drop me.
[09:17] <rast4_> FirstStrike: so I have to do two compiles?
[09:17] <FirstStrike> oh and rast4_ there's an important post on page 11 of that thread with some additional settings you'll need to change or it won't compile.
[09:17] <FirstStrike> no
[09:17] <rast4_> you're making me nervous ;)
[09:17] <FirstStrike> just when you wget and such change the name of the file to match
[09:17] <FirstStrike> it's easy
[09:17] <DanaG> Oh, try the 2.6.17 with the beyond3 patch -- it works.
[09:17] <rast4_> ok here goes
[09:17] <rast4_> what the hell
[09:17] <floppyears> thanks eternalswd
[09:18] <rast4_> maybe that will fix the wireless
[09:18] <rast4_> I need it to work or I'm screwed
[09:18] <DanaG> http://iphitus.loudas.com/
[09:18] <pollypocket> /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[09:18] <FirstStrike> it boots twice as fast and runs a bit faster too.
[09:18] <FirstStrike> so it's definitly worth the upgrade
[09:18] <rast4_> nice
[09:18] <rast4_> what's that link for Dana?
[09:19] <DanaG> It's a good kernel patch.
[09:19] <DanaG> It patches the base 2.6.17, I think.
[09:19] <DanaG> It has the vesafb-tng incorporated in it.
[09:19] <jason2oo2> pfft.. i read on all these forums that RT2500 cards work out of the box..
[09:19] <DanaG> request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers, domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name, netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;
[09:19] <DanaG> and
[09:20] <DanaG> send host-name "m685";
[09:20] <rast4_> ah ok
[09:20] <DanaG> That's all that's uncommented.
[09:21] <rast4_> I'm not finding a how-to on the new kernel
[09:21] <DanaG> Oh, here
[09:21] <pollypocket> mine does not have the send host-name "any-host"; setting
[09:21] <DanaG> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217657 and http://iphitus.loudas.com/beyond.html
[09:21] <rast4_> ah cool
[09:21] <rast4_> ty
[09:21] <DanaG> The second link is for the patch to use, instead of the one the how-to suggests.
[09:22] <Canute> Hi there, I'm just about to wipe my harddrive and install ubuntu. However, I'm planning on atleast trying to play games (such as Warcraft 3). Right now I am in the possession of an ATI X800GT card, and I have understand that ATI doesn't have good support for Linux. I do have a Nvidia GF4 4400, what would be the best to use?
[09:22] <rast4_> ok I'll give that patch a try
[09:22] <FirstStrike> nvidia works best on linux hands down
[09:22] <DanaG> I used make-kpkg -initrd --revision=beyond3 kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image
[09:22] <FirstStrike> ATI will give you a lot of issues, especially with gaming
[09:22] <CBMz> I have an ATi xca
[09:22] <CBMz> card
[09:22] <CBMz> without problems
[09:22] <Canute> So my nearly 4 year old card will be better to use then my 1 year old card :(
[09:22] <FirstStrike> you're lucky then
[09:23] <pollypocket> DanaG: that could cause the dhcp client to try and have the dhcp server lookup settings by the host-name which the netgear may not have a preset for
[09:23] <FirstStrike> try it out and see Canute
[09:23] <Canute> So there's no problem with changing graphic cards?
[09:23] <test> I want to create a automated Installed, that installs all the packages that I have right now... like the ubuntu installer, but then only with the packages that I have...
[09:23] <FirstStrike> the ATI drivers are kind of weaksauce so it's up in the air on whether they'll work or not
[09:23] <rast4_> FirstStrike: so everything in this: sudo wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.17.7.tar.bz2 && sudo tar -xvjf linux-2.6.17.7.tar.bz2 change to 2.6.17.8 instead of 2.6.17.7?
[09:23] <FirstStrike> right
[09:23] <rast4_> ok
[09:23] <DanaG> Wait, read my link first.
[09:23] <DanaG> It says to patch the base 2.6.17
[09:23] <DanaG> not 2.6.17.8
[09:23] <pollypocket> DanaG: just comment it out , what ever it does , you shouldnt need it
[09:24] <rast4_> Dana: ok
[09:24] <DanaG> In Windows my hostname is m685.  I have the router reserve an IP for me.
[09:24] <dkillian> eternalswd: the wg111 worked fine in windows, any other ideas before i possibly by a new adapter?
[09:25] <pollypocket> hm well smarter router has a table mapping for that but its usually only on full servers or more expensive routers
[09:25] <CBMz> Umm.. I just installed kubuntu-desktop at my computer yesterday, does it mean i have to go to #kubuntu?
[09:26] <CBMz> I still have ubuntu, but with kde.
[09:26] <NickGarvey> CBMz: depends on the question :)
[09:26] <Madpilot> CBMz, depends - if you've got a desktop question, then #kubuntu; if it's a more general question, either channel
[09:26] <pollypocket> DanaG: you should test it with out the send host-name to confirm its not part of the problem.
[09:26] <CBMz> Well, i'm trying to run Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. it runs fine, but i have no sound.
[09:27] <NickGarvey> CBMz: is it through wine?
[09:27] <CBMz> NickGarvey: No.
[09:27] <NickGarvey> CBMz: and is something else using your sound card?
[09:27] <jon_> how do i change permissions on a ntfs hard  drive?
[09:27] <DanaG> Oh, and how do I compile a module into the kernel?
[09:27] <pollypocket> DanaG: could be a quirk with netgear and the linux client
[09:27] <NickGarvey> !ntfs > jon_
[09:27] <CBMz> No, i just closed amarok
[09:27] <jon_> i tried fuse
[09:27] <DanaG> I downloaded ipw3945 from sourceforge, and it doesn't have a modules dir.
[09:27] <NickGarvey> jon_: ah, that factoid doesn't say what I thought
[09:28] <NickGarvey> jon_: anyway, you generally don't want to write to ntfs because its not totally stable
[09:28] <NickGarvey> CBMz: other sounds work though?
[09:28] <OmegaNine> What all do i need to isntall to be able to use make for compiling source?
[09:28] <CBMz> NickGarvey: if amarok does, yeah.
[09:28] <Darl_McBride> Ubuntu stole from my company.
[09:28] <_tcc> My fucking sound god damnit.
[09:28] <_tcc> =)
[09:28] <NickGarvey> !language > _tcc
[09:28] <_tcc> Sorry, I'm getting pissed.
[09:28] <Darl_McBride> Ubuntu users owe my company money.
[09:28] <NickGarvey> mm.. take it easy though
[09:28] <jon_> nickgarvey is it okay to play music off ntfs and will it ever be stable?
[09:29] <CBMz> Yep. I can hear sounds from Amarok.
[09:29] <Darl_McBride> You are using an operating system that IBM stole from me.
[09:29] <mike66> how do they owe you money?
[09:29] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: yeah thats funny
[09:29] <NickGarvey> jon_: music, yes
[09:29] <Darl_McBride> :(
[09:29] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: please sue me
[09:29] <JoshHendo> Do windows users oew you money too?
[09:29] <NickGarvey> jon_: and maybe, most likely
[09:29] <eternalswd> dkillian, the only thing I can think of is to maybe reinstall the driver and reload ndiswrapper
[09:29] <jon_> can you help me access it?
[09:29] <NickGarvey> jon_: sure, have you mounted it?
[09:29] <jon_> it only wants to let root user access
[09:29] <jon_> well, mounted and unmounted numerous times
[09:29] <_tcc> lol, owes you money
[09:29] <NickGarvey> jon_: mount it now
[09:29] <jon_> okay
[09:29] <_tcc> Darl_McBride, you owe ME money
[09:29] <ubuntu> hi guys
[09:29] <NickGarvey> jon_: are you comfortable with the terminal?
[09:30] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i might try that once more, but i've reinstalled kubuntu completely a couple times already
[09:30] <Darl_McBride> You can use PayPal to send me $800 USD to my PayPal account dmcbride@sco.com. Thank you for your willingness to pay.
[09:30] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: hi :)
[09:30] <ubuntu> hi nick
[09:30] <_tcc> Darl_McBride, for every second you spend in here you owe us all a penny.
[09:30] <jon_> somewhat
[09:30] <jon_> k i mounted it
[09:30] <Darl_McBride> If you don't pay up, I will have no choice but to sue you all after we win against IBM with the new source we found.
[09:30] <jon_> btw i can ls files in terminal but cant access through the GUI
[09:30] <NickGarvey> jon_: ok, open a terminal (if you haven't laready)
[09:30] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i saw mentioned in another ubuntuforums post about needing the latest ndiswrapper version... do you think it might have to do with the fact that i dont have a wired ethernet connection and i havent run an update on the base install of kubuntu?
[09:31] <jon_> k
[09:31] <NickGarvey> jon_: ah, I don't really use a GUI for file management
[09:31] <NickGarvey> jon_: do you know where your music files are on your windows partition?
[09:31] <jon_> yep
[09:31] <ubuntu> mc is good
[09:31] <CBMz> Oh and,
[09:31] <jon_> some are loose and theres a folder too
[09:31] <eternalswd> kdotsky, give me a second and i'll give you a link to the .deb that you can transfer via usb stick
[09:31] <CBMz> I think this is causing the sound not to work:
[09:31] <CBMz> ------- sound initialization -------
[09:31] <CBMz> /dev/dsp: Input/output error
[09:31] <CBMz> Could not mmap /dev/dsp
[09:32] <jon_> someone said i might have the parameters incorrect in fstab
[09:32] <NickGarvey> jon_: then cd to them, and then use a music player there
[09:32] <Darl_McBride> I would like to remind the opensource community to pay SCO what we rightfully deserve.
[09:32] <jon_> i tried fuse and it didnt seem to do it
[09:32] <NickGarvey> jon_: pastebin your fstab
[09:32] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: hahahahaaa
[09:32] <jon_> k hold on a sec
[09:32] <NickGarvey> jon_: like I personally cd /windows/music; mplayer *.mp3
[09:32] <ubuntu> hi polly
[09:32] <pollypocket> SCO deserves a baseball bat for screwing over its paying customers
[09:32] <NickGarvey> but many people like a GUI with their music
[09:32] <jon_> oops
[09:32] <CBMz> Nick, i posted an error about sound initialization.
[09:33] <pollypocket> SCO lost all of its customers by providing no service
[09:33] <NickGarvey> CBMz: mmap.. hmm what does that mean..
[09:33] <jon_> err i dunno pastebin
[09:33] <kdotsky> eternalswd: i used the .deb u linked to for ndiswrapper-utils in your guide.  should i check for my ndiswrapper version?
[09:33] <Madpilot> Darl_McBride, funny, but offtopic. #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks
[09:33] <NickGarvey> CBMz: In computing, mmap is a POSIX-compliant Unix system call that maps files or devices into memory. It is a kind of memory-mapped I/O.
[09:33] <Darl_McBride> After we have rightfully been paid with Linux ownership we are going to be renaming our company to FuckingKillGoogle to better represent our business strategy.
[09:33] <Darl_McBride> Okay. :(
[09:33] <NickGarvey> !language
[09:33] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:33] <DanaG> I can't figure out how to make-kpkg the ipw3945.
[09:33] <zaxk> Hi, is it possible to use Gedit as root w/o logging as root?
[09:33] <DanaG> I want to make a deb.
[09:33] <CBMz> NickGarvey: So what should i do?
[09:34] <DanaG> zaxk: gksu gedit
[09:34] <jon_> ntfs-fuse	gid=1000,nls=utf8,umask=0022	0	0
[09:34] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: now thats entertainment
[09:34] <Madpilot> zaxk, of course - open it via terminal - "gksudo gedit"
[09:34] <ubuntu> zaxk: yep
[09:34] <jon_> there it goes sorta
[09:34] <zaxk> DanaG thanks
[09:34] <zaxk> thanks
[09:34] <NickGarvey> CBMz:  I think something is using your sound card
[09:34] <DanaG> How do I make a program into a deb?
[09:34] <ubuntu> Madpilot: hi there
[09:34] <NickGarvey> jon_: I actually have no idea how fuse works
[09:35] <ubuntu> DanaG:  rpm?
[09:35] <ubuntu> u mean like rpm 2 debian?
[09:35] <jon_> neither do i
[09:35] <_tcc> Alien!
[09:35] <_tcc> Use ALIEN!
[09:35] <NickGarvey> .deb is an ap archive
[09:35] <NickGarvey> jon_: (or what fuse does heh)
[09:35] <DanaG> No, I want to "make install" into a deb.
[09:35] <CBMz> NickGarvey: is there a way to check if something uses my sound card?
[09:36] <NickGarvey> CBMz: not to my knowledge.. but thats not very much heh
[09:36] <NickGarvey> CBMz: I would check firefox or such
[09:36] <DanaG> I can't figure out how ELSE to install the driver in a way that'll let me reinstall it.
[09:36] <ubuntu> CBMz:  chk process
[09:36] <ubuntu> top in terminal
[09:36] <jon_> do you have any idea how to change the permissions on this mounted hd?
[09:36] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: yeah but that won't tell him what is using the sound card
[09:36] <NickGarvey> jon_: why do you need it write though?
[09:37] <NickGarvey> jon_: maybe we can do a work around
[09:37] <ubuntu> NickGarvey:  ps command will tell
[09:37] <eternalswd> kdotsky, yeah, go ahead and check what version you have
[09:37] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: it says what uses the sound card?
[09:37] <jon_> so i can share files on nicotine
[09:37] <jon_> and play audio without always using terminal
[09:37] <ubuntu> it should show process,
[09:37] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: can you prove you're the real Darl and not just a blow hard
[09:37] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: mine doesn't
[09:37] <NickGarvey> jon_: whats nicotine?
[09:37] <ubuntu> see if any multimedia app is on
[09:38] <Darl_McBride> My nametad says Darl McBride.
[09:38] <Madpilot> pollypocket, the real Darl seems like a blowhard too, so how could you tell? :)
[09:38] <NickGarvey> haha nice
[09:38] <_tcc> lol
[09:38] <_tcc> owned
[09:38] <ubuntu> NickGarvey:  maybe i'm wrong , i'm a newbie :(
[09:38] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: I got a name tag printer here, you'll have to do better than that
[09:38] <CBMz> Hmm. I can run frozenbubble WITH sound.
[09:39] <vasyl> hello
[09:39] <ubuntu> CBMz:  which player r u using to play mp3?
[09:39] <LOQUILLO> hmm
[09:39] <CBMz> ubuntu: totem
[09:39] <Darl_McBride> I am a follower of Him.
[09:39] <jon_> nickgarvey- nicotine is the linux soulseek file sharing client
[09:39] <farous> DanaG: http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/
[09:39] <ubuntu> y not xmms?
[09:40] <jon_> from what im coming across i might be better off ripping a dvd disk and reformatting this hd, no?
[09:40] <ubuntu> or amarok
[09:40] <NickGarvey> wow I have no idea what soulseek is
[09:40] <shaantanu> I am having a problem while configuring vmware. when I run the config, I get stuck up in a place where it says : What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]  ." And my /usr/src is empty .... what am i supposed to do now :(
[09:40] <CBMz> Oh right, i just used amarok
[09:40] <NickGarvey> I dunno I'm not that into p2p stuff I guess
[09:40] <NickGarvey> shaantanu: sudo apt-get install linux-sources
[09:40] <jenda> I have trouble with Enigmail for Thunderbird. I changed my GPG key, but whenever I send, Enigmail tries to send with the old one, which is revoked and isn't even in the key manager.
[09:41] <pollypocket> Darl_McBride: ok so you must know less about unix than DARL does. He has only been with SCO 4 years
[09:41] <shaantanu> Nick : ok I will try wait
[09:41] <vasyl> can someone direct me to a site/wiki or tell me himself where can I find ati drivers version 8.24.8 and how to install them correctly (I have a HP laptop and I need those to make my card work corectly)
[09:41] <farous> DanaG: what driver you want to install the source might be in the repos
[09:41] <_tcc> When is ubuntu going to have better support for WPA?
[09:41] <ubuntu> what is wpa?
[09:42] <CBMz> Hmmm
[09:42] <CBMz> Google power saved me
[09:42] <_tcc> Wifi protected access
[09:42] <rast4_> how do I open qconf, it opened and I closed it not knowing what it was
[09:42] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: its a type of wireless security, its stronger than WEP which is more commonly used
[09:42] <CBMz> The solution is:
[09:42] <ubuntu> CBMz: ur on ubuntu?
[09:42] <CBMz> sudo echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[09:42] <jon_> like napster but not
[09:42] <CBMz> ubuntu: yeah
[09:42] <ubuntu> NickGarvey:  i c, thanks
[09:42] <_tcc> Yeah, why we support WEP and barely WPA?
[09:42] <_tcc> No idea.
[09:42] <_tcc> WEP Sucls.
[09:42] <shaantanu> NickGarvery : Could'nt find package linux-sources . Plz gimme the repository to be added
[09:43] <ubuntu> CBMz:strange
[09:43] <_tcc> It should support WPA without hassle.
[09:43] <NickGarvey> shaantanu: linux-source, not sources, sorry
[09:43] <CBMz> Well, i have to go now.
[09:43] <CBMz> Later.
[09:43] <ubuntu> later
[09:43] <NickGarvey> CBMz: :)
[09:43] <kdotsky> eternalswd: ndiswrapper -v gives utils version: 1.7 driver version: 1.8
[09:43] <rast4_> how do I open qconf, it opened and I closed it not knowing what it was
[09:43] <vasyl> how can I make apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx install version 8.24.8 and not the latest one available?
[09:43] <ardchoille> I just set up this box with 6.06LTS. Does anyone know off-hand which icon I need to change for the gnome menu?
[09:44] <ubuntu> i ? regarding IRC , it has nothing do with ubuntu, mind if i ask?
[09:44] <shaantanu> hmm .. its asking me for download ... I guess after this , I will have my required files and VMware will config properly ??
[09:44] <ciscosurfer> I have a major problem!!!
[09:44] <DanaG> I'm trying to install ipw3945 on my self-compiled kernel.
[09:44] <NickGarvey> shaantanu: I assume so
[09:44] <eternalswd> kdotsky, that's the same as mine, so that's not the issue
[09:44] <DanaG> Essentially, I'd need a linux-restricted-modules-source
[09:44] <shaantanu> nick:thanx dude
[09:44] <jon_> nickgarvey I GOT IT!  =)
[09:44] <NickGarvey> jon_: :) good
[09:44] <ubuntu> nick ur good man , how long u been uisng linux?
[09:45] <farous> 3945

[09:45] <ciscosurfer> My friend had LILO installed, he upgraded his machine to Dapper, and now his system is hosed...we were able to boot to a live disc and mount his files (so they are still there) and he needs to get LILO working again....issuing lilo at the command line is not working...anyone please help!
[09:45] <ardchoille> nvm, found it :)
[09:46] <DanaG> What's the dofference between dhcp-client and dhcp3-client?
[09:46] <eternalswd> ardchoille, I couldn't figure out how to change the default one, I changed the menu to Main Menu rather than Menu Bar under the gnome-panel
[09:46] <ubuntu> NickGarvey:  u there man?
[09:46] <eternalswd> ardchoille, then the icon theme will typically take care of the rest
[09:46] <ardchoille> eternalswd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208457
[09:46] <ardchoille> eternalswd: the icon theme doesn't take care of the gnome menu icon
[09:47] <ubuntu> brb
[09:47] <NickGarvey> ubotu: yes, I'm sorry I didn't see it because you didn't use my full name
[09:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yes, I'm sorry I didn't see it because you didn't use my full name - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:47] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: yes, I'm sorry I didn't see it because you didn't use my full name
[09:47] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: I have been using linux for about 1 year (almost, like 10 more days heh)
[09:47] <ciscosurfer> Does anyone have any idea what to do to get it back to working order??
[09:47] <farous> DanaG: do not think it have a source package in the repos
[09:47] <elias_> My ROOT is mounted read-only but mount says it is (rw)?
[09:48] <elias_> There was no error message on boot
[09:48] <ciscosurfer> 820 people and no takers???
[09:48] <farous> DanaG: i sent you a link to deb maintainer guide if you want to create a deb package
[09:48] <jon_> is ntfs really that unstable to write to?
[09:48] <ciscosurfer> jon_: check out nfts-3g
[09:49] <elias_> And the boot partition does not seem to be mounted but "umount /boot" tells me device busy.
[09:49] <ubuntu> ok back here
[09:49] <lawine> ciscosurfer: i believe Dapper defaults to Grub. is LILO installed at your friends PC ?
[09:50] <TheMoebius> so I want to try edgy on my testing laptop but when i do a apt-get dist-upgrade its saying that it will remove things like x-window-system-core and python. what the deal?
[09:50] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: yes, I'm sorry I didn't see it because you didn't use my full name
[09:50] <NickGarvey> ubuntu: I have been using linux for about 1 year (almost, like 10 more days heh)
[09:50] <lawine> TheMoebius: that's edgy :) perhaps some deps are horribly broken
[09:50] <ciscosurfer> lawine: Dapper does default to Grub, but he was using LILO (don't ask why) and yes, the Lilo files are there but we can't get Lilo to issue
[09:50] <ubuntu> NickGarvey: lol u have used it 40days more then me :)
[09:51] <lawine> ciscosurfer: any error messages?
[09:51] <ciscosurfer> lawine: do you know a lot about LILO?
[09:51] <ubuntu> hi maverick
[09:51] <MacSlow> Greetings everybody!
[09:51] <lawine> ciscosurfer: not a lot bu I used it myself in tha past quite a lot
[09:52] <Steggy> Does anyone know if Amarok has any memory leak issues or something similar? I've been having problems if I let it run for a long time (like over night.)
[09:52] <MacSlow> hm... did the recent bunch of updates inject some nice font-rendering improvements?
[09:52] <ciscosurfer> lawine: brb, going to copy the error messages over
[09:52] <FirstStrike> TheMoebius: it's not recommended to install edgy over your current ubuntu installation.
[09:52] <MacSlow> somehow (really no clue what/how/why) text-rendering looks "more solid"
[09:52] <lawine> ciscosurfer: paste it to pastebin, not here please
[09:52] <ubuntu> ciscosurfer:  try liloconfig
[09:52] <ubuntu> make backups :)
[09:53] <ciscosurfer> lawine: error loading libraries
[09:53] <FirstStrike> it's still quite broken. a user was in here today and edgy nuked their install. they had to reinstall.
[09:53] <zaxk> Hi im runing LAMP hw do i put files in /var/www/ without logging in as root?
[09:53] <ciscosurfer> lawine: command not found
[09:53] <lawine> ciscosurfer: if you boot of the live CD, it may be that the mountpoints are buggered
[09:53] <ubuntu> zaxk:  sudo
[09:53] <FirstStrike> chown /var/www/ to your user/group?
[09:53] <TheMoebius> FirstStrike: blast. I really need libdevil-1.6.7-5 which is only availible on edgy and it depends on a newer version of libc6. Is there any way I can get libdevil anyway?
[09:53] <zaxk> ok thanks
[09:53] <ciscosurfer> lawine: we mounted his old parition to a new directory we created
[09:54] <FirstStrike> TheMoebius: compile from source
[09:54] <ubuntu> FirstStrike:  hello sir
[09:54] <FirstStrike> hi
[09:54] <OmegaNine> Is there an ubutnu packedge search engien like RPMfinder?
[09:54] <FirstStrike> sudo aptitude search stuffhere
[09:54] <JoshHendo> package.ubuntu.com ?
[09:54] <FirstStrike> that too
[09:54] <lawine> ciscosurfer: you need to tell lilo to update the MBR of the correct disc. hang on while i look for some docs
[09:54] <ubuntu> easypackage
[09:54] <zaxk> is it possible to open a directory in genome as root?
[09:54] <JoshHendo> ** packages.ubuntu.com
[09:55] <Madpilot> OmegaNine, there's a Search button in Synaptic - even easier
[09:55] <OmegaNine> Kismet has a new ver that supports my wifi card but I CANT COMPILE and its pissing me off
[09:55] <ciscosurfer> lawine: thank you
[09:55] <ubuntu> zaxk:  sudo nautilus
[09:55] <elias_> XFS says unknown mount option acl in dmsg and now is read-only. But this is my ROOT fs. How to get it back rw?
[09:55] <OmegaNine> Madpilot Yeah but its not on any of them rep i have yet. grr
[09:55] <zaxk> thanks
[09:55] <Madpilot> OmegaNine, have you installed build-essential for the comiling stuff?
[09:55] <sniff_> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[09:55] <OmegaNine> ...no didnt know there was something like that
[09:56] <FirstStrike> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[09:56] <ubuntu> FirstStrike:  can i ask a ? regarding irc
[09:56] <FirstStrike> ask away
[09:57] <eternalswd> kdotsky, well, I'm out of here for today.  Hope you get your problem figured out
[09:57] <OmegaNine> Cool, i have been trying to put this all together by hand (gcc and make and stuff)
[09:57] <ubuntu> when i try to connect to irc, i get message ' ident not found' something like that
[09:57] <ubuntu> what is that?
[09:57] <OmegaNine> Its trying to connect to an "Ident" server you dont ahve running on your computer
[09:57] <FirstStrike> it's..what he said
[09:57] <lawine> ciscosurfer: this might help: http://linuxlab.dk/tipsntricks/booting
[09:58] <OmegaNine> Sweet its compiling!
[09:58] <ubuntu> ok do i need to install that ident?
[09:58] <TheMoebius> FirstStrike: is there an easier way to compile from source than getting a tarball from the developer's site?
[09:58] <AquaF0x> Does Ubuntu support the "rpm" program?
[09:59] <FirstStrike> TheMoebius: uh nope
[09:59] <ardchoille> AquaF0x: no
[09:59] <FirstStrike> AquaF0x: no
[09:59] <ciscosurfer> lawine: thank you, i'll check that out...btw, we tried liloconfig and it's giving this error: command not found
[09:59] <FirstStrike> we have aptitude and apt-get
[09:59] <FirstStrike> which is similar
[09:59] <AquaF0x> Anybody?
[09:59] <ubuntu> AquaF0x:  yes use alient to convert to rpm to debian
[09:59] <lawine> AquaF0x: perhaps with 'alien' (converting rpm to deb)
[09:59] <ubuntu> alien*
[09:59] <AquaF0x> Oh thanks.
[09:59] <AquaF0x> Alient thank you.
[09:59] <ardchoille> ubuntu: Please don't tell people to use alien, it's dangerous
[09:59] <ardchoille> !alien
[09:59] <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).
[09:59] <AquaF0x> Oh Alien :D.
[09:59] <AquaF0x> So Ubuntu uses .deb ?
[10:00] <ardchoille> yes
[10:00] <ciscosurfer> lawine: and when we try to issue sudo ./lilo  we get this error:  libdevmapper.so.1.02  << looking for file this file when we issue
[10:00] <jon_> ciscosurfer it looks good until i try to configure and it says c compiler cannot create executables
[10:00] <lawine> AquaF0x: yes, and DEBs are niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice :)
[10:00] <ubuntu> ardchoille: ok , sorry
[10:00] <AquaF0x> Quite dangerous :x.
[10:00] <AquaF0x> How?
[10:00] <AquaF0x> :D
[10:00] <ivx> does anyone know anything about getting a wifi card to work
[10:00] <lawine> ciscosurfer: is taht after that chroot command?
[10:00] <AquaF0x> Is there a program to use a .deb?
[10:00] <AquaF0x> Like the redhat rpm?
[10:00] <ciscosurfer> jon_: ntfs-3g?  don't compile it...search on UbuntuForums for it and read the posts there
[10:01] <ardchoille> AquaF0x: dpkg
[10:01] <lawine> ciscosurfer: when you're booting of the rescue disc, lots of programs and libs might not be available
[10:01] <jon_> okay

[10:02] <sniff_> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[10:02] <ubuntu> or apt-get
[10:02] <AquaF0x> Sometimes Synaptic doesn't have latest builds.
[10:02] <ardchoille> !deb > AquaF0x
[10:02] <AquaF0x> No I mean if Synaptic doesn't have latest build?
[10:03] <AquaF0x> How to update with .deb?
[10:03] <FirstStrike> I compile from source cause it's fun
[10:03] <ardchoille> AquaF0x: Read the pm ubotu sent you
[10:03] <AquaF0x> I read.
[10:03] <Madpilot> AquaF0x, Ubuntu only does security updates (generally) in between releases
[10:03] <AquaF0x> Ahah.
[10:04] <AquaF0x> So what's a good C++ IDE in Ubuntu?
[10:05] <AquaF0x> So if I get a program tarballed how to install it :x?
[10:06] <Madpilot> AquaF0x, that depends - normally you have to compile it
[10:06] <ubuntu> AquaF0x:  most have README file
[10:06] <ubuntu> chk that
[10:06] <AquaF0x> No I get it as a directory with the app inside it.
[10:06] <ubuntu> or INSTALL file
[10:06] <Madpilot> AquaF0x, pre-compiled? Then it should just run
[10:06] <AquaF0x> I checked it's the readme for AFTER you installed it.
[10:06] <poningru> !mp3 > mistform
[10:06] <AquaF0x> Run as in double click?

[10:19] <alienseer23> hello, there are a bunch of debainEdu packages in the synaptic manager, how do I use them? I tried to install one, and cannot find it?
[10:20] <alienseer23> all of the versions in there say ubuntu on them, so I assume they are compatable?
[10:20] <holycow> alienseer23, depends on what is in the package
[10:20] <alienseer23> they don't really say...?
[10:20] <holycow> most of them just contain simple programs for kids like games and educatiional stuff
[10:20] <alienseer23> for instance.. physics
[10:20] <arnoud> how do i make ubuntu do the command "sudo mount -a" automaticly on startup?
[10:21] <alienseer23> holycow, ok, so how do I get to those packages?
[10:22] <holycow> they are usually in applications menu.  usually under games or so
[10:22] <ubuntu> alienseer23:  did u add reposotries?

[10:31] <protocol1> ok cool
[10:31] <Thunderpants> hi mneptok
[10:32] <protocol1> im planning to do a dual boot on my home system thats why
[10:32] <mneptok> protocol1: will you be dual-booting with a Windows installation that is already there?
[10:32] <ubuntu> Thunderpants:  coffee for ya (_)>
[10:32] <Thunderpants> tyvm :)
[10:32] <zaxh> NickGarvey: it is checked... btw i accidently removed that systray when i ryt click it and accidentaly clicked REMOVE FROM PANEL.
[10:32] <ubuntu> yw
[10:33] <ESPOiG> wen u write up a executable script thingo and you select it to show wats happening in terminal how do you get it not to auto-close the terminal
[10:33] <holycow> zaxh, just add the applet back
[10:33] <Subhuman> zaxh, right click where it USEDto be, click Add to panel
[10:33] <Subhuman> then scroll down and add "notification tray"
[10:33] <holycow> zaxh, its just calle info or something similar
[10:33] <Subhuman> and it should be back
[10:33] <holycow> zaxh, the entire panel contains nothing BUT applets.  you can remove everyrthing even the menues
[10:33] <zaxh> owww cool thanks
[10:34] <protocol1> mneptok, yeah but Im going to reload my xp partition
[10:34] <ubuntu> xp = Xtra pain
[10:34] <protocol1> and set it to use like half my hard disk
[10:34] <mneptok> protocol1: ah, OK. resizing NTFS gets tricky.
[10:34] <holycow> you haveto have xp installed first
[10:34] <alpha232> protocol1: why dual boot, just VMWare it
[10:34] <compengi> NickGarvey can i PM you?
[10:34] <holycow> otherwise it gets tricky
[10:34] <protocol1> well...I have a way of doing it
[10:34] <mneptok> protocol1: how big is the drive?
[10:34] <flasher> how can i convert avi to mpeg-4
[10:34] <flasher> ?
[10:34] <protocol1> I can custom size it on installation...;)
[10:34] <protocol1> 120GB
[10:34] <NickGarvey> compengi: sure
[10:35] <flasher> or convert avi to H.264 video?
[10:35] <drasko> Hi all. Where can I see list of modules that compiled in the kernel (when selected in menuconfig as a build-in modules)?
[10:35] <ubuntu> flasher:  try mediacoder.sourceforge.net
[10:35] <compengi> NickGarvey ty :)
[10:35] <NickGarvey> flasher: one sec
[10:35] <flasher> NickGarvey: ok
[10:35] <flasher> ubuntu: can mplayer do it?
[10:35] <NickGarvey> flasher: probably, memcoder
[10:35] <ubuntu> dont think so
[10:36] <mneptok> protocol1: i would suggest 20GB for XP, 15GB for / on Linux, and the rest the Linux /home partition that you access from Windows with the Windows ext2/ext3 driver. that way you can store your data on the big partition, and re-install your OSes easily.
[10:36] <flasher> !info mediacoder
[10:36] <ubotu> Package mediacoder does not exist in dapper

[10:36] <Dru> Anyone suggest a good IRC client for use under Ubuntu ? as I know Mirc is windows only which is a shame
[10:36] <mneptok> Dru: CLI or GUI?
[10:37] <Mattchewie> Any Nvidia Driver guru's in #ubuntu tonight?...if so, I totally need to chat with you :D
[10:37] <NickGarvey> Dru: I suggest xchat for gui, irssi for cli
[10:37] <Dru> gui prefered
[10:37] <hawkaloogie> Dru, xchat, or mirc can be run in wine
[10:37] <NickGarvey> (personal preference)
[10:37] <mneptok> Dru: try XChat and GAIM
[10:37] <Mattchewie> Dru, BitchX for CLI ....xchat for GUI....IMHO...

[10:37] <hawkaloogie> ew, don't use gaim for IRC
[10:37] <protocol1> mneptok, yeah sounds like a bright idea
[10:37] <mneptok> Mattchewie: you a BX user?
[10:37] <riwa> Weechat is better than irssi for cli though
[10:37] <protocol1> I get my station this weekend
[10:37] <mneptok> protocol1: that's why Canonical pays me the big bucks! ;)
[10:37] <protocol1> I cant wait......
[10:38] <NickGarvey> I don't suggest gaim for irc
[10:38] <Mattchewie> mneptok, hehe yeah I mean on Kubuntu I use Konversation of course but I like bx :)
[10:38] <Dru> tried gaim it blows for IRC
[10:38] <ubuntu> riwa:  got a link for weechat?

[10:40] <flasher> does anybody know a good setting for mencoder to convert avi to a iPod video? (in other words, it's not going to be viewed on a big monitor).

[10:40] <mneptok> alpha232: i think i remember seeing an iptables/tarpit walkthrough for Ubuntu somewhere. i've never used it, personally, so i'd have to do a leetle reserach.
[10:40] <mneptok> *research.

[10:41] <alpha232> mneptok:  yeah i saw somthing for breezy but nuttin on dapper, tryin to find the walkthrough isn't as easy as one would hope.
[10:41] <NickGarvey> riwa: I would try google.. but don't get your hopes up
[10:42] <Dru> anyone else using the beta 2 of firefox?

[10:43] <mneptok> Mattchewie: np np. enjoy. i can't use BX without it.
[10:43] <ubuntu> IRCMonkeyX:  just copy it back to /var/cache/apt/archives after format
[10:43] <Mattchewie> mneptok: you don't happen to know anything about nvidia drivers do ya :P haah cause I'm in a pickle I think.
[10:43] <Dru> only the debian repos you could try
[10:43] <riwa> Dru: Me?
[10:44] <mneptok> Mattchewie: i install the nvidia-glx drivers via Synaptic. path of least resistance
[10:44] <IRCMonkeyX> ubuntu: yes i looked at to path now, all packages are there :)
[10:44] <Dru> sorry riwa yeh
[10:44] <ubuntu> IRCMonkeyX:  kool
[10:44] <mneptok> Mattchewie: if you're using the nVidia binary blob, be sure to run the installer as root ;)

[10:44] <Subhuman> NOW i know why i came on here
[10:44] <Subhuman> google earth
[10:44] <riwa> wifi: !!!
[10:44] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: all packages that i have
[10:44] <Subhuman> need to find that army surplus place round here.
[10:45] <Dru> have looked at them but most people have advised to not use as some progs may not work as well
[10:45] <ubuntu> riwa:  what r u trying to do?
[10:45] <riwa> Dru: It's not in the deb base neither. I thought that it was the same :/
[10:45] <IRCMonkeyX> !wifi > riwa
[10:45] <riwa> ubuntu: Install e17
[10:46] <ubuntu> k
[10:46] <riwa> IRCMonkeyX: Ever heard of pastebin?
[10:46] <Mattchewie> mneptok: Aye, I have taken that route too but when I restart x.....No Nvid logo displays...so I'm thinking something isn't stiring the kool aid
[10:46] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: yes why? did i do something bad ?
[10:46] <Mattchewie> ....stupid SiS controlled Acer Aspire....darn you and your 299 USD tempting price tag!!!!
[10:46] <flasher> Using mencoder, what command do i run in terminal to convert foo.avi to foo.mp4
[10:46] <mneptok> Mattchewie: sure sounds like it's not working. run the installer again and use it to uninstall. then try the nvidia-glx driver package from Synaptic/apt
[10:47] <riwa> IRCMonkeyX: I didn't say that.. I just meant that you shouldn't post 5-6 lines in an irc channel like wifi did.
[10:48] <Mattchewie> mneptok: well the nvidia-glx driver from apt/ubuntu repo's is the one I installed/ trying to use...I mean it worked great on my other pc with my 7600 GT, just this darn cheapo machine with the Fx5200 I bought doesn't seem to want to take it!!! GRAW!
[10:48] <ubuntut> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[10:48] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: it didnt appear at channel, it appeared only at your screen, i thought that you were trying to ask ubotu about wiki, it was only a help
[10:48] <zaxh> Hi, anybody knows whats the name of d mini command line that you can put in the systray?
[10:48] <Mattchewie> ..You know what baffles me, is the fact that its working with agpgart module loaded, I thought nvid drivers didn't play well with agpgart
[10:48] <ompaul> IRCMonkeyX, there was a user called wifi who had pasted lots in the channel
[10:48] <riwa> IRCMonkeyX: Oh... wiki is the bot??
[10:49] <ompaul> riwa, no ubotu it :)
[10:49] <ompaul> is
[10:49] <riwa> He seemed very un-bot like.
[10:49] <riwa> yeah. that's what I meant
[10:49] <elias_> Do I have to tell hibernate somewhere where the hibernation partition is?
[10:49] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: sorry it would be wifi
[10:49] <riwa> IRCMonkeyX: np
[10:50] <ubuntu> well tc guys,bbl
[10:50] <ubuntu> god bless
[10:51] <ubuntut> how to install CNet cnusb-611 usb wireless driver in ubuntu
[10:51] <riwa> IRCMonkeyX: btw I thought you said: "wiki > riwa" not "!wiki > riwa".. I've usually seen "to" and not ">" no avoid confusion :P
[10:51] <zaxh> hello, is there a command line panel that you can put in systray?
[10:51] <riwa> zaxh: What do you mean?
[10:52] <zaxh> riwa: like a mini text box in the systray where you can run commands
[10:52] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: passed :)
[10:52] <frogzoo> elias_: by default, it uses the swap partition
[10:52] <brush01uk> Greetings Everyone    have a good day :-0
[10:53] <riwa> zaxh: That would depend on your panel I guess..
[10:53] <IRCMonkeyX> riwa: and i wrote wifi when i send ubotu to you, not wiki :)
[10:53] <Dru> at work, its raining & still a day to go before the weekend
[10:53] <Dru> bored

[10:56] <IRCMonkeyX> could anyone pls suggest me an online multi dictionary for ubuntu (like babylon in windows) ?
[10:58] <IRCMonkeyX> ompaul: could you pls suggest me an online multi dictionary for ubuntu (like babylon in windows) ?
[10:59] <ompaul> IRCMonkeyX, you should know me at this stage I know nothing of windows - also if it is online what is its url and maybe i can figure out what it is that it does
[10:59] <Trystan> Hey guys. Im after some help getting direct rendering with fglrx + ATI 9600. After following some online guides it fails to yeild any result
[10:59] <arnoud> is there a flashplayer yet for x64?
[11:00] <phuzz> how do i give a user access to another user home dir? (groups maybe?)
[11:00] <bbrazil> phuzz: groups or ACLs
[11:00] <IRCMonkeyX> ompaul: it is installed on pc, also when it doesnt have the word on installed program it searches in its db, when you surf in internet in any language, you click on word, it gives the meaning
[11:01] <FirstStrike> IRCMonkeyX: try FreeDict
[11:01] <vouzico> phuzz > chmod
[11:01] <phuzz> vouzico: for one user only tho?
[11:01] <IRCMonkeyX> firststrike: let me download it, does it have wide language support or only english ?
[11:02] <FirstStrike> phuzz: the best way is to add that user to the same group as the other user
[11:02] <phuzz> yeah i figured
[11:02] <phuzz> thanks guys
[11:03] <FirstStrike> IRCMonkeyX: it supports multiple languages
[11:03] <vouzico> phuzz > give the rights to the group, the other user belongs to
[11:03] <FirstStrike> check out their website

[11:04] <RalleAb> I get this error when opening apache: 13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] :80
[11:04] <RalleAb> no listening sockets available, shutting down - what do I need to to?
[11:05] <IRCMonkeyX> firststrike: should install debain packages ?
[11:05] <IRCMonkeyX> firststrike: should  i   install debain packages ?
[11:06] <FirstStrike> zaxh: right click on the folder, click make link and move the link to wherever you want (i'm assuming desktop)
[11:06] <ompaul> IRCMonkeyX, there are ubuntu packages for same
[11:06] <FirstStrike> IRCMonkeyX: yes. ubuntu is based on debian.
[11:06] <IRCMonkeyX> ok thanx
[11:06] <Jukru> RalleAb: make sure your apache conf files are correct and that there is nothing else listening on port 80
[11:06] <Madpilot> IRCMonkeyX, those packages should be in Ubuntu's archives - no need to get them off the website
[11:06] <redblades> Hi, I just tried two floppies in my machine, and neither worked.
[11:07] <redblades> How do I mount them and why don't they automount?

[11:22] <IRCMonkeyX> Thunderpants: i downloaded it, i saw things,  thanx for your interest :)
[11:22] <Creap> RalleAb: no, I don't think gaim listens to 80
[11:22] <void^> null-void: edit /etc/apt/sources.list, read some docs, if you don't want to use gui you need to learn a bit.
[11:22] <johnf> Acid___: it's a SAS suppon on a SUN X4200 it only works properly in 2.6.16+ I've tried using the 2.6.17 kernels from edgey and rolling a CD but of course then I have dependancy issues
[11:22] <null-void>  void^ : thanks i'll have a try
[11:22] <NickGarvey> Creap: no, just cfdisk /dev/hda

[11:29] <FirstStrike> try typing freedict or man freedict in a console
[11:29] <Acid___> jeo: what the exact broadcom chipset you got ?
[11:30] <jeo> Acid___, bcm43xx ?
[11:30] <Acid___> jeo: you also download the firmware ?
[11:31] <Spitfireleet> i have a problem, it says only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time. i don't have any other programs like it open
[11:31] <jeo> Acid___, hum, i don't know, so i don't think so :P
[11:31] <Acid___> jeo: ok :)
[11:31] <NickGarvey> Creap: not sda6, just sda
[11:31] <Acid___> jeo: just type a dmesg in your console
[11:31] <Acid___> jeo: and see if it talks about a broadcom chipset
[11:32] <IRCMonkeyX> FirstStrike: no sesne, nothing happens
[11:32] <jeo> Acid___, it does
[11:32] <Acid___> jeo: when you modprobe ndiswrapper
[11:32] <IRCMonkeyX> FirstStrike: no sense, nothing happens
[11:32] <Creap> NickGravey: Still the same :(
[11:32] <Creap> NickGarvey: I don't think it likes my sata drives :(
[11:32] <jeo> Acid___, it says it's using the ndiswrapper and the driver i got
[11:33] <jeo> but it still doesnt work :\
[11:33] <syntaxx> damn this is my 2nd time download of ubuntu desktop.iso first bad download now on my 2nd time 2nd burn it says when i select install ubuntu it says I/O Error Boot CD Reboot? whats wrong is it bad download again or bad burn?
[11:33] <NickGarvey> syntaxx: did you check the md5?
[11:33] <Awesome-o2000> syntaxx, it sounds like bad memory
[11:33] <syntaxx> NickGarvey, yes it says digesting successful
[11:33] <NickGarvey> syntaxx: you can actually md5 the cd
[11:34] <arcadia-null-voi>  Acid___ : why not get the cd for free
[11:34] <NickGarvey> arcadia-null-voi: takes a very long time :)
[11:34] <syntaxx> Awesome-o2000, bad memory?
[11:34] <NickGarvey> RAM is bad
[11:35] <Awesome-o2000> syntaxx you need to run memtest - it should be on the cdrom
[11:35] <syntaxx> Awesome-o2000, if its not? its on the iso?
[11:35] <Awesome-o2000> syntaxx, it isnt a program you run, its something you boot into and it tests all your ram
[11:36] <syntaxx> Awesome-o2000, hmm ok but when i check defects CD i also get the same error
[11:36] <syntaxx> brb reboot i memtest
[11:36] <Awesome-o2000> syntaxx, it sounds like your computer is having hardware issues. i'd check my cdrom drive and check my ram
[11:37] <Y4llow> Can anyone possibly lend a hand in setting up an IPWireless modem?
[11:37] <CBMz> Umm Hi.
[11:37] <ompaul> Awesome-o2000, they do not appear to have md5summed the iso might be worth doing that then getting them to burn it really slowly
[11:37] <CBMz> I'm having a problem with wolfenstein: enemy territory.
[11:37] <Cwiiis> Hi all, does anyone know how to get rid of the horrible aliased fonts in Ubuntu edgy eft?
[11:37] <gkappe> Good morning, after I installed dapper I cant boot my windows partition anymore fromout grub. Does anybody have a clue for me here?
[11:38] <Awesome-o2000> ompaul, that wouldnt cause i/o errors
[11:38] <ompaul> Cwiiis, you are in the wrong channel, please go to #ubuntu+1
[11:38] <FirstStrike> ahh perfect
[11:38] <CBMz> I made a shortcut at my desktop, and when i open it, the bumping gear is still at the left.
[11:38] <Cwiiis> ompaul: Thanks
[11:39] <ompaul> Awesome-o2000, if the disk was badly burnt who knows what errors it would throw at which stage

[11:39] <tucoz> Hi, I am having problems with adept and synaptic. Adept stopped responding a few days ago, so I killed all the adept processes to update with apt-get. However, both synaptic and adept refuses to start now.
[11:39] <NickGarvey> tucoz: neither of them are runing now?
[11:40] <mehrdad> How do I set CD label when using mkisofs?
[11:40] <tucoz> NickGarvey, no. Let me double check the processes
[11:40] <ompaul> tucoz, on the command line run this >> sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade << then try it
[11:40] <tucoz> ompaul, ok. That is what I usually do, but let me try again.
[11:41] <ompaul> tucoz, if it throws an error, please paste the contents of the error in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org thanks
[11:41] <jeo> Acid___, got it workin :)
[11:41] <jeo> bye
[11:41] <tucoz> ompaul, apt-get works fine and so does aptitude
[11:41] <mehrdad> How do I set CD label when using mkisofs? I read the man page, but couldn't figure our which parameter I should use, all of them were for solaris x86
[11:42] <tucoz> but not the more graphical frontends to dpkg
[11:43] <ompaul> tucoz, did the upgrade finish with no errors?

[11:44] <Creap> NickGarvey: Solved it, it was reallt silly actually, I forgot sudo, but thanks for your help :D
[11:44] <ompaul> tucoz, wait until it it finished when it is finished then try to start synaptic - apt is "an exclusive" program you can't run more than one instance, have you rebooted since you started having this issue?
[11:45] <senuxis> does anyone know how to use imagemagick?
[11:45] <tucoz> ompaul, yes. I just started the computer
[11:45] <ompaul> tucoz, okay

[11:46] <alex116> hey what option do I need to put in my fstab file to make an ext3 partition writeable by me as a regular user "alex"
[11:47] <alex116> something like gid=blah or uid = blah
[11:47] <CBMz> Hm. i'm a linux newb. how do i copy a directory? i tried using cp and got this message:
[11:47] <CBMz> cp: omitting directory
[11:47] <NickGarvey> CBMz: cp -r
[11:47] <NickGarvey> CBMz: in the future, man cp would have told you
[11:47] <tucoz> ompaul, Ok, now I tried to start synaptic. But, I never was asked for the root password and no window popped up. The synaptic process is still running though.
[11:48] <ompaul> alex116, that is not done there you chown the parition or chmod it - if you are the only user then as long as it is not / or something core then "sudo chown alex:alex /path" works
[11:48] <NickGarvey> tucoz: probably won't let you install anything though
[11:48] <tucoz> NickGarvey, no ;)
[11:48] <ompaul> tucoz, that is cos you launched it within the last 15 minutes
[11:48] <ompaul> tucoz, sudo lives that long
[11:48] <CBMz> Um... i used sudo, but it won't accept my password
[11:49] <CBMz> Nevermind
[11:49] <ompaul> alex116,  in other words if you did not make the directory yourself don't change its permissions
[11:49] <tucoz> hmm. But then synaptic would start without asking for a password, which it doesn't do.
[11:50] <ompaul> tucoz, paste this into the pastebin "ps auwx | grep -v grep | grep synap"
[11:50] <BeBraw> i have got two computers in my WLAN. the other one has a printer connected. how can i configure the one without printer to use the printer?
[11:51] <tucoz> ompaul, nothing came up
[11:51] <ompaul> tucoz, then how can you say synaptic is running?
[11:51] <alex116> ompaul, thx it works
[11:52] <tucoz> I killed the process after I said it was running
[11:52] <greenman7>  Hello - I am using Ubuntu, I have setup first mailserver but for some reason after running successfully for a month or so there now seems to be a dns problem. When you do abc.local which is our intranet its going to the linux server rather than the original windows machine
[11:52] <ompaul> tucoz, well if your talking to someone on irc you could tell them what your doing so that I don't have to assume anything
[11:52] <tucoz> martin    5886  0.3  2.2  25136 11660 ?        S    11:49   0:00 kdesu -u root -c kdesu adept
[11:52] <greenman7> in the dns part of windows it shows a record for abc.local and the ip address of the linux box, I presume that when one of the servers was restarted the problem came to effect but i don't know where to look to stop it happening and i can't get in through webmin!
[11:52] <greenman7> * Grok_ has quit IRC ("blah")
[11:52] <arcadia> hi
[11:52] <tucoz> ompaul, sorry.
[11:53] <ompaul> tucoz, "sudo kill -9 5886"
[11:53] <NickGarvey> -9 eh, don't even give it a chance heh
[11:53] <ompaul> NickGarvey, never - expect no mercy
[11:53] <tucoz> -9 is the same as -KILL right?
[11:53] <valero95> el maqui
[11:53] <NickGarvey> ja
[11:53] <tucoz> ok
[11:54] <ompaul> tucoz,  KILL       9   exit      this signal may not be blocked
[11:54] <tucoz> ompaul, know what? I can start with sudo synaptic, but not with the command provided by kde.
[11:54] <NickGarvey> tucoz: do gksudo, not sudo
[11:55] <ompaul> tucoz, gksudo should be used
[11:55] <tucoz> ok, thanks. I'll try that
[11:55] <ompaul> tucoz, quit out of it and use gksudo
[11:55] <tucoz> that works also
[11:55] <ompaul> no it works the other is bad if you use it with gnome graphical programs (don't get me started ;-))
[11:56] <tucoz> I see :)
[11:56] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[11:57] <greenman7> Its stopped the intranet being pointed to the windows server it actually exists on
[11:57] <greenman7> in dns there is a record for the mailserver and abc.local but i don't understand how!
[11:58] <tucoz> ompaul, NickGarvey: thank you for the help.
[11:59] <NickGarvey> :)
[11:59] <ompaul> tucoz, your welcome
[12:00] <TMT[fi] > Hello everyone
[12:00] <BeepAU> hey everyone, what app should i use for a virtual drive?
[12:00] <corpxicle> hi, ive ruined my KDE install
[12:00] <corpxicle> =)
[12:01] <corpxicle> i get the panel, but i dont get the "K" button
[12:01] <tucoz> btw, I wanted to clean up the grub menu a bit to get rid of the old linux images. Is there some other way to do this, than the manual way of removing the images from the boot folder and cleaning up menu.lst?
[12:01] <BeepAU> what i mean is, something i can enter a *.iso or disc image into that my ubuntu can read without burning it to disc
[12:01] <TMT[fi] > I have a n00b question :)
[12:01] <tucoz> BeepAU, that can be done quite easily
[12:02] <BeepAU> tucoz -- how?
[12:02] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : ask away, noob questions are the easy ones :)
[12:02] <tucoz> BeepAU, hold on
[12:03] <ompaul> NickGarvey, I am surprised at you
[12:03] <NickGarvey> :(
[12:03] <tucoz> BeepAU, create a directory where you want the image mounted. for instance /mnt/image
[12:03] <NickGarvey> its 6 in the morning!
[12:03] <ompaul> NickGarvey, well have a coffee then :)
[12:04] <NickGarvey> haha everyone is sleeping, I can't wake em up
[12:04] <tucoz> BeepAU, then you can mount it with 'mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.iso /mnt/image'
[12:04] <raveneye> no it isn't its 12:03 give or take a few minutes
[12:04] <TMT[fi] > If i copy or del or so on files in console, how can i define several files or file types? For example if i want to copy all the .jpg and png file to somewhere?
[12:04] <raveneye> >:)
[12:05] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : use a wildcard, cp *.jpg /home/nick/images would copy all files that ended in .jpg to /home/nick/images
[12:05] <TMT[fi] > I know that but can i copy all .jpg and .png file with same command?
[12:06] <francesco> Hello! Anyone here using usp - ubuntu system panel?
[12:06] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : yes, thats what the * means, all jpg in the current folder
[12:06] <BeepAU> tucoz -- ok, i'll try it out later. thankyou.
[12:06] <tucoz> no problem
[12:07] <TMT[fi] > NickGarvey: You didn't understand XD
[12:07] <corpxicle> anyone know what the "k" button in kde is a part of ?
[12:07] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : guess not, what do you mean?
[12:07] <Bonez56_> hi all, when i ssh to my ubuntu pc it asks for username, then it takes a very long time before bringing up the password prompt, is there any way i can make it quicker?
[12:07] <corpxicle> or is it just the menu with a specific button
[12:07] <TMT[fi] > NickGarvey: I want to copy all image files, not just .jpg.
[12:08] <tucoz> NickGarvey, probably copy all .jpg AND .png in one go
[12:08] <NickGarvey> corpxicle: the official definition is "k desktop environment"
[12:08] <raveneye> Bonez56_ how about stop leeching pr*n on your ubuntu machine >:)
[12:08] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : oh, well then do cp *.jpg *.png *.JPG *.PNG /home/nick/images
[12:08] <Bonez56_> raveneye: no pr0n, fast internet connection and fast cpu
[12:09] <raveneye> ssh usually gets slow if you are having more network activity on the machine you are connecting to
[12:09] <TMT[fi] > Doh! Now i feel such a n00b! :D
[12:09] <NickGarvey> TMT[fi] : hehe, all need to learn sometime, there are BASH tutorials all over the place if you want to learn more
[12:10] <ompaul> TMT[fi] , don't use the n word - you have skills, just because your not familar with Ubuntu is no reason to put yourself down
[12:11] <TMT[fi] > ompaul: But i have used other distros for few years before
[12:11] <ompaul> TMT[fi] , you are best at whatever you are best at, as are we all on the planet and not know computers at all - so that should not detract from your or anyone else - and that is no excuse for that word, have a cup of tea :)
[12:11] <TMT[fi] > ompaul: So i shouldn't be like "Alice in wonderland"
[12:15] <RedEcho> Salut a TOUS qqun pour de l aide en Francais SVP ???
[12:15] <user00265> richiefrich: lamer
[12:15] <RedEcho> Hi, Somebody for help in french please ?
[12:15] <Madpilot> !fr
[12:15] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:16] <richiefrich> user00265 o.O
[12:16] <RedEcho> Thanks !
[12:16] <TMT[fi] > ompaul: Reason why i used the n-word is that it wasn't my first time in console, that is so basic stuff. Wors of all managed this problem like a n**b, i didn't try to find any info myself before asking here.
[12:16] <TMT[fi] > Worst
[12:16] <kaffeewoller> hi. I've got two dappers connected via 11MBit Wlan Router. Copying a 700MB file takes 45 min. Is this ok?
[12:16] <NickGarvey> 700MB is pretty big
[12:17] <kaffeewoller> Can the network handle the same amount of data better in small files?
[12:17] <NickGarvey> I doubt it, smaller files means more file names and stuff, thus extra data
[12:17] <raveneye> hmmm more files usually means more overhead
[12:18] <ompaul> TMT[fi] , we are happy enough to help people - just abandon that word and we will be happier :)
[12:18] <kaffeewoller> I got the feeling things should go faster, innit?
[12:18] <raveneye> oops did not mean to repeat you NickGarvey.
[12:18] <NickGarvey> raveneye: :) well if you had to repeat anyone, at least you picked someone smart ;)
[12:18] <mcphail> kaffeewoller: use wires if you want fast file transfers
[12:19] <kaffeewoller> mcphail: So you think the router itself is the bottleneck.
[12:19] <raveneye> LOL nick at least you dont suffer from any form of modesty what so ever.
[12:19] <NickGarvey> :)
[12:19] <mcphail> kaffeewoller: the wirless tranfers are the bottleneck
[12:20] <ompaul> !away > raveneyehatessmo
[12:20] <m_0_r_0_n> Why do I always have to choose the target directory again and again to save the same file?
[12:20] <kaffeewoller> mcphail: ok. So a faster router could speed things up, i think.
[12:21] <NickGarvey> kaffeewoller: you could use a cross over also
[12:21] <NickGarvey> kaffeewoller: (if they are close to each other of course :))
[12:21] <kaffeewoller> :)
[12:21] <mcphail> kaffeewoller: "faster" router and NIC. But plugging in would be the best idea
[12:21] <tucoz> m_0_r_0_n, that depends on what application you are using
[12:22] <kaffeewoller> lets say I add a crossover cable. would I have to change any configs?
[12:22] <kaffeewoller> or would it "autodetect"?
[12:22] <m_0_r_0_n> hm, mysql query browser e.g.
[12:22] <snoops> it's ridicously shocking how buggy that is
[12:22] <Snakehit> Hello
[12:23] <tucoz> m_0_r_0_n, this is a guess. But programs usually have a working directory. Check the preferences/options, and also if you can set a directory in the startup script for the applications.
[12:26] <cactus_sediento> hello everybody
[12:26] <Snakehit> Is there a program or tool in ubuntu that gives you all the information about your laptop. I mean, chipset ect. Like Sandra on windows
[12:26] <snoops> Snakehit lspci ?
[12:27] <jujimufu> when I do "apt-get install xserver-xorg-dev" I get this error : http://pastebin.ca/135981
[12:27] <Snakehit> Yes i did that lspci -v | less
[12:27] <Snakehit> but that doent gives my wireless card
[12:27] <cactus_sediento> i installed kubuntu over ubuntu.....does anybody know how to switch between kde and gnome?
[12:27] <Snakehit> i mean, i dont know what type it is
[12:27] <ompaul> Snakehit, sudo lshw
[12:27] <due> cactus_sediento: In the login screen, there's an "options" button down the bottom left hand side. Click on it, and select "select session".
[12:28] <cactus_sediento> thanks due
[12:28] <alek> hi
[12:30] <alek> i've just changed my network card in my second PC and ubuntu (6.06 server) didnt detect it
[12:30] <Snakehit> ok
[12:30] <NickGarvey> how much detail does your wikipage on launchpad need to be for you to become an ubuntu member
[12:30] <NickGarvey> ?
[12:30] <Snakehit> ompaul, that gives me a bit of information
[12:30] <Snakehit> but not the correct one i think
[12:30] <babo> how do I check what groups 'user' is in ?
[12:30] <Snakehit> it says :
[12:30] <Snakehit>    description: Wireless interface
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 product: Intel Corporation
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 vendor: Intel Corporation
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 physical id: 0
[12:30] <alek> how do the hardware detection?
[12:31] <ompaul> dont paste
[12:31] <Snakehit> ok sorry
[12:31] <ompaul> use paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:31] <Snakehit> excuse me
[12:31] <Snakehit> ok
[12:32] <babo> seriously though, how do i check which groups user is in ?
[12:32] <NickGarvey> babo: usermod -g GROUP USER
[12:32] <MenZa> !repeat > babo
[12:32] <babo> groups
[12:32] <Snakehit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20864
[12:32] <babo> K ... cool thanks ...
[12:32] <ompaul> Snakehit, is this to configure a wireless card?
[12:33] <Snakehit> i don't know, im new at ubuntu
[12:33] <Snakehit> this is the information i get about my card
[12:33] <ompaul> Snakehit, why are you trying to identify it?
[12:33] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: hahah, you must know what you are trying to do
[12:33] <Snakehit> to find the correct drivers
[12:33] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: like, "what is it that you are trying to do" is what ompaul asked
[12:33] <alek> babo: do you know, your nick is abusive synonym of women? =] 
[12:33] <alek> in polish;] 
[12:34] <Snakehit> i need to find the drivers to get it working
[12:34] <NickGarvey> "British Association Of Balloon Operators"?
[12:34] <ompaul> Snakehit,  so if you said you want to do that you should start here  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=wireless&titlesearch=Titles
[12:34] <babo> alek: in Korean it means 'idiot' ... :-)
[12:34] <ompaul> !wireless > Snakehit
[12:34] <alek> babo: lol
[12:34] <Snakehit> i did
[12:34] <Snakehit> but i don't know what card i have exactly
[12:35] <ompaul> Snakehit, the bot also sent you a useufl link
[12:35] <Snakehit> i know its a Intel
[12:35] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: lspci should help with that
[12:35] <Snakehit> but what type
[12:35] <Thunderpants> whats the minimum video ram needed to run xgl?
[12:35] <alek> so, how to do the hardware detection in ibintu 606 server? he didnt detected my new network card:(
[12:35] <Snakehit> no NickGarvey, because my wireless card isnt between it
[12:36] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: didn't show it? you sure?
[12:36] <Snakehit> i think so
[12:36] <Snakehit> sec, i paste
[12:36] <NickGarvey> in the pastebin..
[12:36] <Snakehit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20865
[12:36] <compguy> nevermind me, heh
[12:37] <compguy> me and my uncreative nick.
[12:37] <NickGarvey> compguy: heh, mines worse
[12:37] <compguy> your real name..?
[12:37] <NickGarvey> yup
[12:38] <compguy> hehe.
[12:38] <ompaul> alek, https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ the "book" for the server is there
[12:38] <Snakehit> you see NickGarvey ?
[12:38] <alek> ompaul, thanks
[12:38] <NickGarvey> compguy: which according to esr is good :)
[12:39] <ompaul> Snakehit, plug it in and let the card get identified
[12:39] <Snakehit> on a laptop
[12:39] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: nope, don't see it..
[12:39] <Snakehit> its this Network controller: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 4222 (rev 02), must be
[12:39] <NickGarvey> that says ethernet though
[12:39] <troughton> can some one please tell me how to mount a second hard drive ??
[12:40] <NickGarvey> troughton: mount /dev/hd? /mnt/point
[12:40] <ompaul> troughton, for linux or is it ntfs?
[12:40] <troughton> linux
[12:40] <NickGarvey> troughton: system > administration > disks
[12:40] <troughton> wont mount nick
[12:40] <NickGarvey> no? why not?
[12:41] <troughton> dont know i tell it to mount it dose nothing
[12:41] <NickGarvey> troughton: sure it isn't mounted?
[12:41] <raveneye> snakehit try lspci -vv
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Hi guys...
[12:42] <ompaul> troughton, sudo mkdir /otherdisk ; sudo mount /dev/hd?? /otherdisk
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Have this small problem...
[12:42] <troughton> yes i cant gain access i have formated in ext 2 and 3 with no success
[12:42] <ompaul> troughton, do you know what the values of ?? are
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> My grub is on the wrong disk...
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Using dualboot...
[12:43] <tion> hey, anyone who knows the "normal" size of usr/lib and usr/share? I know it varies, but is it like 100 mb og 1gb?
[12:43] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: try a boot cd to fix things up, do you know how to do that?
[12:43] <troughton> yes ompaul will try thanks
[12:43] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: I am on my boot cd as we speak...
[12:43] <Snakehit> raveneye, that gives me nothing more
[12:43] <Snakehit> just more information
[12:43] <Snakehit> but no type
[12:43] <NickGarvey> tion: my lib is 307
[12:44] <NickGarvey> tion: and my share is.. 214
[12:44] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: But I really have no clue how to do that, without wrecking my MBR which now hosts a win32 boot sector...
[12:44] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: what boot cd?
[12:44] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: The newest from ubuntu
[12:44] <NickGarvey> here, try this
[12:44] <tion> ty nick.. thats what I was afraid of.. my lib is 996 and my share is 875 :S
[12:44] <NickGarvey> !grub > Captain_Fleming
[12:44] <NickGarvey> tion: hehe, mind you this is SUSE 10.1 running KDE
[12:45] <NickGarvey> tion: oh no! its not! thats my no GUI gentoo server
[12:45] <NickGarvey> (damn you ssh)
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: I have read those documents...
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> But my ubuntu is not on my main disk of the bios...
[12:45] <noobie0057> hi I'm having trouble partitioning a usb drive. I can't get windows to recognize the partitions instead I see a folder called .TrashUsername. There are 2 partitions Win Fat32.  Any ideas?
[12:45] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: make it so it is :)
[12:45] <mcphail> tion: my /usr/lib is 1.5G
[12:45] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: or you can edit your grub.conf
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Will I be able to boot my win32 then still?
[12:46] <NickGarvey> tion: mine is 1.3
[12:46] <tion> hmm
[12:46] <NickGarvey> tion: and lib is 1GB
[12:46] <mcphail> tion: /usr/share is 1.8
[12:46] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Does that have any use? I mean, it never gets to grub in the first place :-/
[12:46] <NickGarvey> so I win
[12:46] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: oh! do a grub-install /dev/wherever
[12:46] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, thnx :)
[12:46] <Snakehit> you have a tool like netStumbler on ubuntu?
[12:47] <tion> just suddenly ran out of space on my filesystem and I cant seem to find the reason
[12:47] <neildarlow> tion: temporary files?
[12:48] <tion> not in tmp but something in var/cache
[12:48] <tion> but thats just a few hundred mb
[12:49] <afflux> morgen
[12:49] <mcphail> tion: which filesystem?
[12:49] <neildarlow> tion: is it just one partition filled? does du give any hint where they are?
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:50] <noobie0057> I'm having trouble partitioning a usb drive. I can't get windows to recognize the partitions instead I see a folder called .TrashUsername. There are 2 partitions Win Fat32.  Any ideas?
[12:50] <tion> mcphail: got / mounted and /home as own partitions (ext3)
[12:51] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: oh.. let me think.. how did I fix that..
[12:51] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: I had the same problem
[12:51] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey:  :)
[12:51] <mcphail> tion: maybe you have used all of the allocated inodes with multiple small files?
[12:51] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Take your time, no real rush here :)
[12:51] <firstknight> Hi, my ubuntu has hostname, named 'hulahula'. But when my windows xp in the same lan try to ping by name, that is 'hulahula', it said unknown host. Ping with ubuntu ip address works fine. How do I make it work?
[12:52] <tion> neildarlow: using filelight and its usr/lib and /share that is the largest
[12:52] <aixing> Ati gfx dual screen anyone have this setup? I need help getting mine to work
[12:52] <neildarlow> firstknight: your system must be resolvable to Windows via DNS or WINS
[12:53] <neildarlow> firstknight: simplest solution is to configure and run samba
[12:53] <tion> mcphail: maybe.. but isnt there a very hight number of inodes? cant have used all:P
[12:53] <firstknight> neildarlow, oke. thx
[12:53] <userdb> hello , is there in default dba group?
[12:53] <userdb> in ubuntu groups?
[12:53] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: cp /proc/mounts /etc/mtab :)
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> ok, one moment (with sudo I assume?
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> )
[12:54] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: yup, lets hope nothing breaks heh
[12:54] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: live cd though so reboot if it does heh
[12:54] <mcphail> tion: not really - you can set inode density when creating an ext2/3 filesystem.
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> Well, I am on a live cd...
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> And it is a fresh install :)
[12:55] <Captain_Fleming> So, there is nothing to break :P
[12:55] <mcphail> tion: the system defaults to an "average" amount, but if you have multiple small files it can use them up quickly
[12:55] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: wait until the CD melts :)
[12:55] <Captain_Fleming> neildarlow: I have 5 of those :P
[12:55] <tion> mcphail: I dont have that many files on my system yet.. not that long since I reinstalled ubuntu
[12:56] <mcphail> tion: ok. Probably not then
[12:56] <tion> but I think I have a lot of kde stuff on my system
[12:56] <neildarlow> tion: du filesystem |less
[12:57] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[12:57] <neildarlow> tion: and look for big numbers
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ grub-install /dev/sda
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Did I need to copy those of the live cd, or those of my ubuntu installation?
[12:57] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: damn, um, mount /dev/sda first then
[12:57] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: not sure
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: It is already mounted on /mnt
[12:58] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: no idea then.. :(
[12:58] <TCK0> i want to convert a *.mpg to a *.mov .. any linux tools to do this ?
[12:58] <cacs> !list
[12:58] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, thnx anyway...
[12:58] <Thunderpants> Captain_Fleming, what partition is ur root on?
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Now I am going for the hard way :) (reindexing the bios drives :P)
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Thunderpants: /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Thunderpants: /dev/sda5 == swap
[12:59] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: heh, I'd rather do that then mess with this stuff heh
[12:59] <Thunderpants> then grub-install /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Too much work -_-'
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ grub-install /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Prob. need to add sudo -_-'
[12:59] <jkelly2005> TCK0: ffmpeg can probably do it
[01:00] <Thunderpants> aye
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> Nope, same thing (but with the sudo before grub-install)
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, now I'm going to reindex my drives with the bios..
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> I'll let you know if it worked or not :P
[01:01] <Captain_Fleming> TTYL guys :)
[01:01] <noobie0057> anyone know about partitioning a usb hard drive?
[01:01] <tion> neildarlow: get the same info from filelight
[01:02] <mcphail> noobie0057: just use cfdisk
[01:02] <noobie0057> used cfdisk, windows could not recognize it,, I want to be able to use it on bith windows and linux
[01:03] <noobie0057> cfdisk, and linux correctly recognize the usb drive, windows sees a directory called .TrashUsername
[01:04] <cactus_sediento> an open question to all the room:  Ubuntu or Kubuntu...why?
[01:05] <jrib> cactus_sediento: ubuntu if you like gnome, kubuntu if you like kde.  Install both on your system and use what you like most
[01:05] <noobie0057> perhaps the cylinders heads or tracks should be altered? or the FAT I chose was wrong (Win Fat32)?
[01:06] <TMT[fi] > cactus_sediento: I don't know is there really other difference than ui but i say ubuntu because Gnome is nicer to use.
[01:06] <noobie0057> One partition size was 8 mb is that too small ?
[01:06] <mcphail> noobie0057: i'm trying to remember, but i think usb drives are often formatted fat16. Could be wrong...
[01:06] <ziottt> hi everybody
[01:07] <troughton> when i use the run command it predicts my entry where will i find the text file listing the commands ??
[01:07] <ziottt> I tried to burn audio file .ape on my cd with k3b
[01:07] <ziottt> I found this file k3bmonkeyaudioplugin-3.0.tar.bz2
[01:07] <ziottt> but when am going to compile it
[01:08] <ziottt> doesnt work with "make"
[01:08] <noobie0057> mcphail: I'll try it.  Thanks
[01:08] <tion> anyone here playing poker?
[01:08] <ziottt> this is the result: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[01:08] <TMT[fi] > cactus_sediento: why did you ask only about ubuntu and kubuntu? They are not only variations ;)
[01:08] <ziottt> anybody had the same prob before?
[01:08] <mcphail> noobie0057: the other thing to try would be to format it in windows, then mount it in linux and see which filesystem was used
[01:09] <jrib> troughton: where is this run command?  Is this in your terminal?
[01:09] <mcphail> ziottt: you get this when ./configure fails
[01:09] <mcphail> ziottt: it should have give an error message
[01:09] <ziottt> hang on I show u in pvt
[01:09] <noobie0057> mcphail: that's a good idea, what I really want is 2 partitions and as far as I can tell this is impossible to do in windows (unless I boot off of it, install win 98, or buy a 3rd party tool)
[01:10] <noobie0057> my goal is to make a encrypted drive, 1 small partition for a decryption program
[01:10] <mcphail> noobie0057: you can do this in linux when you have worked out how windows likes it's partitions made
[01:10] <cactus_sediento> TMT[fi] : i installed kubuntu over ubuntu....trying both....found gnome nice and lighter than kde...and now i am wondering if there is any feature of kde that i havent see and also if it is posible to uninstall in a simple way kubuntu
[01:11] <noobie0057> mcphail: thanks for the brainstorm,, I'll give it a shot and tell you how it goes...
[01:11] <mcphail> ok
[01:11] <jrib> cactus_sediento: how did you install kubuntu?
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, I'm back :)
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> And guess what :-:
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> -_
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> -_-'
[01:12] <cactus_sediento> jrib from ubuntu..installing all the packets of kubuntu desktop from Synaptics
[01:12] <ziottt> mcphail, did u get it?
[01:12] <Captain_Fleming> !nvidia Captain_Fleming
[01:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia Captain_Fleming - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:12] <mcphail> ziottt: sorry, get what?
[01:13] <ziottt> I paste the error in the pvt win
[01:13] <jrib> cactus_sediento: easiest way imo is to remove the libqt3-mt package.  That should remove all of the kde things.  You could also remove the kubuntu-desktop package and use deborphan too I think
[01:13] <waspius> hello..anyone know how i can make some buttons on my laptop work?
[01:13] <mcphail> ziottt: i haven't received a /msg, but please keep things in channel anyway. You can paste at the pastebin

[01:17] <Captain_Fleming> hehe
[01:17] <sladen> phaero: don't remove the usplash packages.  just remove 'splash' from the command line
[01:17] <mcphail> ziottt: you haven't installed a compiler. "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[01:17] <jrib> Captain_Fleming: ubotu should have sent you instructions for installing the nvidia drivers if you typed:  /msg ubotu nvidia
[01:17] <Captain_Fleming> Indeed, thnx jrib
[01:17] <ziottt> ok tnx
[01:18] <jenda> Sound doesn't work in flash in firefox... what can i do about that?
[01:18] <mcphail> ziottt: (or rather, you haven't installed the compiler properly)
[01:18] <hyperstream> is there any ways i can take say 3 avi's and convert them to dvd ? (with a menu etc where you can choose which of the 3 avis(converted to dvd) ??
[01:18] <jrib> Captain_Fleming: the nvidia drivers are in the restricted repository.  The commercial repository is different, I'll send you the link for the repos where you can read more
[01:19] <jrib> !repos > Captain_Fleming
[01:19] <hyperstream> bah
[01:19] <hyperstream> windoze time :x
[01:19] <mcphail> hyperstream: there is a prog called "any2dvd", but i haven't had much success with it
[01:19] <hyperstream> hmm
[01:19] <Captain_Fleming> jrib: I know about that ^-^
[01:19] <ziottt> mcphail, I try to install the build-essential stuff then we'll see what's coming out
[01:19] <hyperstream> yeah
[01:19] <hyperstream> ill use nero
[01:19] <hyperstream> bbl
[01:19] <hyperstream> thanks
[01:21] <Captain_Fleming> Running update now...
[01:21] <Captain_Fleming> Cannot install something atm :(
[01:21] <noobie0057> I'm back, (usb partition problem) in different areas windows reports different things, sometimes 1 drive of the complete size, sometimes 2 drives of correct sizes, sometimes just the first partition of the full size
[01:22] <Captain_Fleming> noobie0057: what have you used to partition the usb disk?
[01:22] <tuxtux> ciao
[01:22] <argunda> which is more lightweight? ubuntu or kubuntu?
[01:22] <Captain_Fleming> xubuntu ^^
[01:22] <neildarlow> noobie0057: have you just tried one primary partition on the device? perhaps windows is braindead
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> neildarlow: you know windoze is braindead...
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> Or at least ms is...
[01:23] <noobie0057> used cfdisk to partition it
[01:23] <cactus_sediento> in my short experience....ubuntu
[01:23] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: i know but M$ doesn't
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> :P
[01:23] <RedGhost> Yes let's hate on Microsoft because it is a large corporation that charges for its software.
[01:23] <jrib> argunda: ubuntu by a hair, but if you are looking for lightweight, xubuntu is probably a better option
[01:23] <RedGhost> Aren't we cool.
[01:23] <noobie0057> 2 primarys,, I think this could be the problem
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: That is not why I 'hate' windows..
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> Or ms..
[01:24] <neildarlow> noobie0057: i've never seen more than one partition on a usb device
[01:24] <RedGhost> Why then?
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> For that matter... I do not hate ms or windows...
[01:24] <RedGhost> The only thing that is even semi-bad about Microsoft is the licensing issues.
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> You confuse humour (my humour) with hate is here...
[01:25] <Captain_Fleming> I find it funny to laugh with those things...
[01:25] <avis> good morning
[01:25] <noobie0057> I don't really understand primarys,, I though a drive could have 4 primaries,, then extended allows more than 4. Is this not correct?
[01:25] <RedGhost> Well any and every Non-Windows based channel is nothing but "M$ and Windoze" and it does get tiresome.
[01:25] <Captain_Fleming> noobie0057: correct ;)
[01:25] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: i dislike the "best ever windows" with each release but the same old security vulnerabilities hell
[01:25] <justin_> How do you start GNUpg it is not in my XFCE start menu??
[01:25] <argunda> jrib, if I have 512mb will kubuntu run fast?
[01:25] <avis> 4 primary partitions per drive you usually reserve primary partitions for core operating system
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: Just so you do not understand me wrong...
[01:26] <avis> or so i've been taught in the windows world.
[01:26] <neildarlow> justin_: you use gpg from the commandline or it integrates with email clients etc.
[01:26] <jrib> argunda: it should run fine
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: I just say 'windoze', because if you pronounce it correctly in my language, it is quite funny :P
[01:26] <mcphail> justin_: you could use seahorse
[01:26] <RedGhost> argunda when I had 512mb both Kubuntu and Ubuntu ran fine.
[01:26] <argunda> what do you mean fine o-O
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> I have 380mb, and ubuntu runs...
[01:27] <argunda> ok
[01:27] <RedGhost> No lag, No issues.
[01:27] <justin_> neildarlow: ok command "gpg"?
[01:27] <RedGhost> "fine." :)
[01:27] <Captain_Fleming> But I'm going to download & install fluxbox :)
[01:27] <neildarlow> justin_: yes
[01:27] <justin_> mcphail: Is seahorse compatible with existing PGP keys?
[01:27] <justin_> Captain_Fleming: Fluxbox is nice :D - superlightweight hehe
[01:27] <argunda> does the Enlightenment Windows Manager use less memory than KDE and Gnome?
[01:27] <neildarlow> justin_: it found mine :)
[01:27] <justin_> neildarlow: :) I'll give it a look thnx
[01:28] <avis> justin do you know if a fresh install of fluxbox will import all your gnome and kde apps over from gnome/xubuntu ?
[01:28] <neildarlow> argunda: you're not comparing like-for-like. you mean does Enlightenment use less memory than kwin or metacity
[01:28] <avis> ack !  i'm running XGL :/  nevermind.
[01:28] <mcphail> justin_: yes
[01:29] <neildarlow> argunda: KDE and GNOME are desktop environments. Englightenment, kwin and metacity are window managers
[01:29] <argunda> oh ok
[01:29] <argunda> :D
[01:29] <justin_> avis: It will have most of your apps in it's right click menu, yes.
[01:29] <Samuli^> enlightenment is desktop enviroment.
[01:29] <argunda> o.O
[01:30] <argunda> does enlightenment have it's own file manager?
[01:30] <RedGhost> argunda I think Xfce4 uses less memory than Gnome or KDE but I am not sure.
[01:30] <alex116> yes
[01:30] <alfred> Two things happened to my Ubuntu 5.10 in the last few days.
[01:30] <Samuli^> xfce4 is very nice.
[01:30] <neildarlow> Samuli^: it's evolved into one but still doesn't compare to KDE or GNOME
[01:30] <argunda> RedGhost, yea it did last time I tried it but I didnt like Xfce
[01:30] <Samuli^> I'm using xfce4 with metacity :)
[01:30] <Samuli^> looks exactly like gnome, only lighter.
[01:31] <Samuli^> and thunar has have to be the best file manager around.
[01:31] <alex116> yes gnome with a crappier file manager
[01:31] <RedGhost> if its about aesthetics use Gnome :D
[01:31] <Samuli^> -have
[01:31] <Snakehit> does anyone know a program to see all accesspoints
[01:31] <Samuli^> alex116, nautilus is the WORST file manager.
[01:31] <Samuli^> unstable and a resource hog.
[01:31] <argunda> nautilius comes with Gnome right?
[01:31] <Samuli^> yes.
[01:31] <alex116> what do you suggest samuli^?
[01:31] <argunda> what does KDE come with?
[01:32] <alex116> konquerer
[01:32] <Samuli^> alex116, sudo apt-get install thunar :)
[01:32] <alex116> i'll try it
[01:32] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, see you guys in a sec.
[01:32] <argunda> how does konquerer compare to nautilis?
[01:32] <alex116> konquerer is a webbrowser as well I think
[01:32] <alex116> but I dont know much about it
[01:32] <alex116> best to try it out
[01:32] <neildarlow> 3 filemanagers... 2 window managers... and a partridge in a pear tree :)
[01:32] <alfred> An update to Open Office, resulted in Write, not being able to accept more than three Characters, before freezing my computer. Does anyone have a fix for this, to do a clean uninstall, and then install a previous version?
[01:32] <Samuli^> konqueror is great too.
[01:33] <argunda> Samuli^, thanks I think I will try Kubuntu
[01:34] <neildarlow> Samuli^: most of KDE is great e.g. konqueror, K3B, digikam, kooka...
[01:34] <camcorder> hi
[01:34] <Samuli^> neildarlow, true.
[01:34] <camcorder> does anyone know if firefox in ubuntu patched for using gtkspell
[01:35] <alfred> The second problem was that there was a Multiplied Block error during Boot up that needs to be fixed manually, and I'm not sure how to go about it! Ubuntu 5.10 will now not boot up!
[01:35] <RawSewage> did anyone's fonts change the last update
[01:35] <Samuli^> argunda, you know that you can have both gnome and kde on your install right?
[01:35] <alex116> hey you're right thunar is neat
[01:35] <Samuli^> alex116 :)
[01:36] <neildarlow> camcorder: where do you use a spellchecker in a web browser?
[01:36] <Samuli^> It's a lot like nautilus, only better :)
[01:36] <argunda> Samuli^, last time I tried ubuntu and used Gnome I didnt like it
[01:36] <Samuli^> argunda, ok.
[01:36] <argunda> Samuli^, but it was mostly because of Nautilus which used a lot of memory
[01:36] <argunda> >=[
[01:36] <camcorder> neildarlow, good question, but does it use gtktext for input texts etc?
[01:36] <finite9> Need help: Cannot burn DVDs with cdrecord!  Forums are awash with threads, but no solution.
[01:36] <Samuli^> argunda, so you don't have ubuntu on your computer anymore?
[01:37] <camcorder> gtk widgets I mean, I doubt that vanilla firefox uses gtk widgets
[01:37] <argunda> Samuli^, no I had to get rid of it
[01:37] <neildarlow> camcorder: probably. i don't examine things to that level :)
[01:37] <argunda> at the time
[01:37] <Samuli^> ok.
[01:37] <dpupp> what does this mean: mrv8k_init_one: return -2 mrv8k probe of 0000:01:08.0 failed with error 2. (whats error 2?)
[01:37] <justin_> Hmm, how do I add seahorse to my XFCE menu?
[01:38] <RawSewage> Did anyone's fonts change?
[01:38] <dpupp> fonts change? not here. all the same.
[01:38] <RawSewage> this is strange
[01:38] <alex116> anyone using moblock? I want to remove http blocking and need some help with scripting
[01:39] <finite9> No-one else having problems to burn DVDs with cdrecord?
[01:40] <alfred> I use Kb3, which is an excellent cd dvd recorder program, as good as Nero in windows!
[01:41] <finite9> k3b uses cdrecord as well in background, so that wouldnt help
[01:41] <neildarlow> i'm just about to try burning a DVD with GnomeBaker
[01:41] <dpupp> im trying to uninstall a program i installed with dpkg... im doing: sudo dpkg -P ndis* (and its giving me you must specify packages by their own name" ...
[01:42] <finite9> I use Gnomebaker (which uses cdrecord) but burning with Gnomebaker spits out several errors.  There are many suggestions on the forums but none work.  Both K3B and Gnomebaker use cdrecord as the underlying burning utility
[01:43] <dpupp> never mind.  ^_^ i just had to say  dpkg -P ndiswrapper-utils instead. ^_^
[01:43] <finite9> burning CDs works perfectly.  When trying to burn a DVD-RW or DVD+RW or when trying to import previous DVD session, I get errors
[01:45] <alfred> I've burned all the different formats of cd dvd media, on Kb3 and did not have any errors!
[01:46] <finite9> alfred: what version of (k)ubuntu do you have and what kernel?
[01:47] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[01:47] <alfred> I tried the new Ubuntu 6.06 but found it had a few bugs, so I went back to using Ubuntu 5.10 with the latest Kernel.
[01:48] <cactus_sediento> jrlb: could you please repeat me your suggestion for uninstalling kubuntu? i lost the data...
[01:48] <FirstStrike> dapper has been great for me. what bugs did you find?
[01:48] <FirstStrike> and did you report them?
[01:48] <finite9> yeah, thats the problem alfred: Breezy Badger has no issues, but somewhere during the Dapper Flights, cdrecord broke :(
[01:49] <neildarlow> finite9: don't you use growisofs to burn dvds?
[01:49] <finite9> In Dapper, there are serious issues with CD/DVD burning
[01:49] <jrib> cactus_sediento: easiest way imo is to remove the libqt3-mt package.  That should remove all of the kde things.  You could also remove the kubuntu-desktop package and use deborphan too I think
[01:49] <Dani_Filth> Hi there
[01:50] <Dani_Filth> how i can have animation with clearlooks engine ?
[01:50] <operative> hi Dani_Filth
[01:50] <FirstStrike> hmm, i haven't tried dvd burning yet
[01:50] <FirstStrike> i should try it out
[01:50] <Ng> I've burnt DVDs fine using nautilus
[01:50] <cactus_sediento> thanks again jrlb :)
[01:50] <Ng> specific failings with cdrecord should go to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/cdrtools/+bugs
[01:51] <finite9> neildarlow: no idea.  all I know is that Gnomebaker spits out a big dialogue full of warnings and errors about cdrecord being at fault, and running 'hdparm /dev/hdc' gives errors
[01:51] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[01:51] <jrib> cactus_sediento: np, it's jrib with an i by the way, in case you want my hilight to work :)
[01:51] <richard_> i am trying to restore the original font settings
[01:52] <alan__> hello
[01:52] <finite9> Ng: Apparently other ppl have burnt ISOs ok with nautilus, but I find Nautilus too limiting, so I use Gnomebaker.  I admit to not having tried Nautilus to see if it has same issue
[01:52] <neildarlow> Ng: haven't tried nautilus for DVD burning. does it allow control of the process or is it just drag-and-go?
[01:52] <finite9> drag and go
[01:52] <Ng> finite9: if you are getting specific and repeatable errors that appear to be bugs, please report them
[01:53] <neildarlow> finite9: thought so. just as well i installed GnomeBaker then :)
[01:53] <finite9> Ng: there are many posts on the Ubuntu forums about the problems with Dapper and DVD burning, and several posts mention that bugs are already filed re: these issues
[01:53] <finite9> seems to be no fix in sight
[01:53] <dpupp> im trying to follow instructions here: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu#If_it_doesn.27t_work. and one of the steps say to run "sudo make install." but im getting sudo: make: command not found. any idea?
[01:54] <FirstStrike> finalbeta: i'm burning a dvd right now with nautilus
[01:54] <FirstStrike> er finite9
[01:54] <finite9> dpupp: you need to install build-essentials package to get make
[01:54] <alfred> At the moment I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 because 5.10 will not boot due to a Block Multiplier error, that needs to be fixed manually
[01:54] <neildarlow> dpupp: you don't have make installed
[01:54] <dpupp> ok thanks
[01:55] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[01:55] <richard_> or at least tell me how to restore it
[01:55] <neildarlow> dpupp: you probably don't have compilers and required libraries installed either
[01:55] <FirstStrike> i'll try burning a dvd with gnome-baker next
[01:55] <dpupp> thanks that must be the case. Its quite bare at the moment untill i get my network card running...
[01:56] <nikin> hy
[01:56] <finite9> I will try Nautilus when I get home to see if that works, but I have a suspicion that I already tried it a while ago and that wouldn'r burn either.  maybe it has something to do with hardware not being recognised properly (note burning in WinXP has no issues at all - its a dual layer 16x DVD burner)
[01:56] <waspius> this http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/funkey/ is a page i found that tells you how to configure the rest of your keys on your keyboard..i hope it helps
[01:56] <nikin> one of my friends told me about a feature, to set the resolution before booting
[01:57] <nikin> how can i do that?
[01:57] <alfred> I've found that Keep does not work well, and has no Help files, so I do backups in terminal mode with the command line, with includes and excludes, and these can be restored, if you loose something. I store these on a dvd rw.
[01:57] <noobie0057> (usb partition problem) thanks guys I still can't get windows to recognize the second partition. First one works now. A few times I crashed winXP.  I'm going to give up for the night. Thanks again
[01:57] <finite9> neildarlow: what version / kernel do you have??
[01:57] <alienbrain> I know Ubuntu Server comes with mysql 5 by default, but does it also has mysql 4.1 or may be 4.0 also as alternatives?
[01:58] <nikin> i want to set the res so, that the ubuntu boot screen displays in 1024x768
[01:58] <alfred> use the command xres and then the resolution you would like to use before you boot up!
[01:58] <neildarlow> finite9: dapper and 2.6.15-26-686 on an Athlon-XP
[01:59] <nikin> any ideas?
[01:59] <dpupp> ok, whats an install error 2?
[01:59] <fyrestrtr> alienbrain: yes, it does
[01:59] <ChrisNiemy> hi there! will i break my system, when I remove the package "initrd-tools"?
[02:00] <alienbrain> fyrestrtr: great then, I assume it has the same policy for other packages like apache. Thank you.
[02:00] <alfred>  nikin: use the command xres and then the resolution you would like to use before you boot up!
[02:00] <Bassetts> can someone recommend a app to post to my blog from my desktop
[02:01] <neildarlow> finite9: only oddity is probably that my DVD writer isn't configured to use DMA. hdparm doesn't enable it at boot for some reason.
[02:01] <nikin> thx
[02:01] <ChrisNiemy> until dapper "initrd-tools" was in main, now it's in universe and i would like to remove it because of dependencies
[02:01] <yeager> bassetts: drivel?
[02:01] <dpupp> im now getting: cant find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386
[02:02] <finite9> neildarlow: me too...Ubuntu 6.06 with all updates, but I usually run 2.6.15-25 kernel, althhough I have tried the -26 kernel and got same errors.  I have an Acer Aspire laptop with a 16x dual layer burner.  It burns CDs fine, but not one DVD.  When I try to import a previous session from a DVD-RW or DVD+RW i get a large dialogue saying that the DVD writing code is missing and that I need to get cdrecord DVDPro from FTP.  This is just a warning and must be i
[02:02] <dpupp> i just install build-essencials.
[02:02] <Bassetts> yeager, doesnt look very usable, i would like something that is pretty much like a text editor and i can format the text with easily
[02:02] <Singkong2005|Syd> Hi... I want to change the icon for an application (Zim). I can change it on the application menu, but how do I change it for the application itself (including what I see when I press ALT+TAB)?
[02:02] <hs_125> i a trying to install firefox ...it is giving this error Errors were encountered while processing:
[02:02] <hs_125>  /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox_1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.5-0ubuntu6.06.1_i386.deb
[02:02] <hs_125> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[02:02] <nikin> alfred: and where i should put that command?
[02:03] <dpupp> err.... damnit! bad habit of mine of skipping initial first steps... *goes back to re-read instructions*
[02:03] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: my recent dapper install doesn't have initrd-tools. you should only need it to build an initrd for a kernel you've built yourself
[02:03] <alfred> nikin: right at the boot up prompt, you type it in then hit enter!
[02:03] <finite9> neildarlow: or maybe its because i use amd64 version of Ubuntu whereas you have i686
[02:04] <nagyv> How could I find out wheather I use arts or alsa? I would like to set up Skype the best possible way. I have already read about dsp_hijacker, but now found a forum (http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=48195) and also a possible kopete integration with a different tip (http://extragear.kde.org/apps/kopete%20skype/) (I use kubuntu, but I think it doesn't make any difference here.)
[02:04] <neildarlow> finite9: ah, you're doing multisession. i haven't tried that.
[02:04] <nikin> i mean, if i want it to be automatic when i start up my system
[02:04] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: ok. and after i have this kernel installed and running I don't need it anymore?
[02:04] <hs_125> *.* any help?
[02:05] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: until you build a new one no. if you use pre-packaged kernels you won't need it
[02:06] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: i currently using a self-compiled kernel
[02:06] <neildarlow> nagyv: cat /dev/sndstat
[02:06] <alfred> nikin: just before the automatic boot up starts, you have the option to put in a command that will change the boot up. you could hit escape , that brings you to a menu in Grub, you can add the command there.
[02:07] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: if you use an initrd with it then you'll probably need initrd-tools
[02:07] <Singkong2005|Syd> Anyone know about changing icons for an app?
[02:08] <nikin> alfred: ty
[02:08] <yeager> bassetts: many blogs (such as Wordpress) has a mail->web interface
[02:08] <jrib> Singkong2005|Syd: you can change the icon theme you use
[02:08] <jrib> !themes > Singkong2005|Syd
[02:08] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: ok, thanks
[02:10] <neildarlow> brb. gaim preferences tweaking
[02:10] <whadar> what could cause the desktop to disappear? all i see is that brown background with no icons and the right click is not functioning....
[02:10] <lakbu> hi.
[02:11] <lakbu> how can i share internet connection to other computers?
[02:11] <FirstStrike> lakbu: yes
[02:11] <FirstStrike> buy a router
[02:12] <lakbu> FirstStrike, can i make my ubuntu box a router? masquerade?
[02:12] <FirstStrike> yea, you could set it up as a server.
[02:12] <lakbu> FirstStrike, any helpful links?
[02:12] <FirstStrike> no cdrecord issues here
[02:13] <neildarlo1> FirstStrike: been there, done that. works... :)
[02:13] <corndog_> first time ubuntu user here... is there any reason it didnt ask me for a root password on install? does it set up a default?
[02:13] <playtime3> hi i have just enable the plugin for Auto replace, but it seems to be not working
[02:13] <fyrestrtr> !root > corndog_
[02:13] <FirstStrike> lakbu: http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com/2006/06/setup-your-computer-to-be-router.html
[02:13] <corndog_> thnx
[02:13] <neildarlo1> corndog_: ubuntu uses sudo. the user you created has root rights with sudo
[02:14] <lakbu> thanks
[02:14] <playtime3> hi i have just enable the plugin for Auto replace, but it seems to be not working? anyone know how to fix it?
[02:14] <playtime3> I mean kope
[02:14] <playtime3> I mean kopete
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> Lepingbeta: two options, edit the menu icon and add that to it, or edit the firefox launch script itself. Which one would you like?
[02:15] <PingunZ> hey, how can I make a gnome-terminal automatically start up when I boot. and use a specific terminal-profile, and be maximised on a specific desktop ?
[02:16] <quiet> if you want to boot to a terminal... why not just boot to console?
[02:16] <fyrestrtr> PingunZ: ctrl+alt+f1
[02:16] <PingunZ> no quiet I want the Console on one of my 4 desktops
[02:16] <whadar> i get this on the log: Error opening /dev/wacom : No such file or directory
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi
[02:17] <fyrestrtr> PingunZ: the first two I know how, the second two I don't think are possible.
[02:17] <whadar> and i don't have a desktop!
[02:17] <fyrestrtr> whadar: everyone gets that error (unless you have a wacom tablet)
[02:17] <whadar> fyrestrtr: oh... so it is not that :)
[02:17] <jrib> PingunZ: system > preferences > startup, 'man gnome-terminal' for the switch you need to use a profile, for the full screen on a specific workspace checkout devilspie (but this may take some research on your part to get it to only affect that one terminal, maybe set a custom title)
[02:17] <whadar> what may cause desktop absence?
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi
[02:18] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[02:18] <fyrestrtr> greenman7: answer is simple, it doesn't.
[02:18] <PingunZ> ty jrib
[02:18] <fyrestrtr> whadar: don't know.
[02:18] <Lepingbeta> fyrestrtr:How to add "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" to the firefox launching script?
[02:19] <fyrestrtr> Lepingbeta: gksudo gedit /usr/lib/firefox/firefox
[02:19] <quiet> greenman7, because you have you dns/dhcp server set for authoritative control over abc.local
[02:20] <ubuntu> hi
[02:20] <greenman7> quiet: even though the domain name of the mailserver is abc-net.local?
[02:20] <FirstStrike> dvd #2 has been baked~
[02:20] <quiet> mail server is not a dns server.
[02:20] <xnszx> does anyone have mythtv install on ubuntu setup?
[02:20] <quiet> is this a windows domain greenman7 ?
[02:20] <greenman7> There is a windows domain and dns server
[02:21] <quiet> that is why...  the windows domain is probably abc-net.local
[02:21] <greenman7> but the mailserver has a static ip and uses the windows dns server to forward requests on
[02:21] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: thanks, useful to know... but changing themes  doesn't change the app icon
[02:21] <quiet> the domain is abc.local
[02:21] <dpupp> ok im really confused. im looking at my lspci and im seeing two devices as wifi when i only have 1 wifi device....  broadcom wireles controller, and a ethernet controller with a marvel chip... thed marvel device is the one im having issues installing, but the other one im certain its a wires card, but its coming back as wifi?.... really odd. its showing up as a PCMCIA card in the network tools gui.
[02:21] <greenman7> the windows domain is just abc.local
[02:21] <Lepingbeta> fyrestrtr:Thanks for your help!
[02:22] <quiet> greenman7, there's your answer...
[02:22] <quiet> active directory REQUIRES that any domain controller also be a DNS server.
[02:22] <quiet> so your DNS server is authoritative to abc.local
[02:22] <quiet> it's nothint to worry about.
[02:22] <quiet> nothing*
[02:23] <quiet> if you want to share to the other domain name, you just specify it in your samba config.
[02:23] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: you need to change the icon set used, you can click on "theme details" in the theme preferences dialog, and see that you can change the icons, border, and controls.  If you use a custom icon set that gets installed to your ~/.icons (or just copy one of the ones you already have there), then you can just navigate the icon directory and edit the icons you want
[02:23] <greenman7> it just seems to have happened! After the mailserver was up and running for a couple of months - perhaps when i restarted the windows server a month ago it picked up the other server
[02:23] <finalbeta> !mount ftp
[02:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mount ftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:24] <greenman7> i don't want the two to be connected especially - i just want abc.local to go to the windows machine and to be able to login to webmin on the other server
[02:24] <finalbeta> can ubuntu do this? Mount an ftp?
[02:24] <jpjacobs> ftpfs
[02:24] <finalbeta> thnx
[02:24] <quiet> greenman7, well, you can specify to override the other DNS domain name, if you just want to change it.
[02:24] <whadar> how can i start a clean ubuntu session, without previous stuff open?
[02:24] <greenman7> is that in windows or in linux
[02:25] <quiet> linux
[02:25] <quiet> i assume you are talking about a ubuntu server?
[02:25] <greenman7> yes
[02:25] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[02:25] <richard_> or at least tell me how to restore it
[02:26] <quiet> greenman7, what doesit say in /etc/hosts ?
[02:26] <hkBst> the (x)ubuntu kernel seems to be missing the /proc/config.gz. Is there anywhere to get the kernel config?
[02:26] <erUSUL> hkBst: in /boot/
[02:26] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib:I see - that changes the look of icons for  the file browsers and gedit... but not for applications like Zim, that I'm trying to change.
[02:27] <greenman7> Quiet: I have 127.0.0.1 mailserver.abc-net.co.uk and then lines like ::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
[02:27] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: oh, you wan tot change the icons in the menu?
[02:27] <chendo> what's the easiest way to setup a NAT server on ubuntu server?
[02:27] <chendo> like, router-style
[02:27] <chendo> with DHCP and all
[02:27] <quiet> greenman7, what does 'dnsdomainname' return?
[02:27] <fyrestrtr> chendo: install dhcp-server, install shorewall and set it up.
[02:28] <greenman7> abc-net.co.uk
[02:28] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i'm kinda stuck on the whole 'zones' part of the shorewall thing
[02:28] <chendo> and i don't have a browser working cause i don't have NAT ;/
[02:28] <quiet> greenman7, and where are you getting that the domain changed to abc.local??
[02:28] <chendo> so i'm irssing into my box ;x
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> chendo: stuck how?
[02:28] <hkBst> erUSUL: do you have to be booted from the cd for this to work?
[02:29] <greenman7> is not changed but when you go to abc.local thats supposed to be on the windows machine but its pointing to the linux one as I get an apache message
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> a zone is just a virtual grouping of ip addresses.
[02:29] <dpupp> ... is it possible that wifi can also use "eth" names? ... im used to seeing wlan instead
[02:29] <greenman7> If you turn the linux machine off then it points to the files on the windows machine correctly
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> dpupp: yes, on my machine eth1 is my wifi card.
[02:29] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: I've changed the icon in the menu, and where I put it on the panel next to the menus...
[02:29] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i've got no clue what a zonefile is
[02:29] <chendo> but hold up, looking at man page now
[02:29] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: s/wan tot/want to
[02:30] <quiet> greenman7, then THAT is just a DNS issue.
[02:30] <greenman7> But i haven't changed any dns settings
[02:30] <quiet> well SOMETHING/SOMEONE did.
[02:30] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: (continued) but I'd like it to be consistent... like if I press ALT+TAB to switch between programs, cuz now it shows the original (awful, stress-disorder inducing) icon.
[02:30] <dpupp> is it normal for pci card to show as PCMCIA in the network setting GUI ?
[02:31] <ardchoille> Just installed 6.06LTS today and noticed that when I put .png images in the desktop wallpaper, they don't show, they show if I convert them to .jpg. Am I missing a package?
[02:31] <greenman7> That's annoying and I don't know what to change to stop it doing it!! Haha
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> chendo: how many network cards in your router machine?
[02:31] <chendo> fyrestrtr: one
[02:31] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: oh I see, not sure where gnome gets those.  Make sure ~/.local/share/applications/*.desktop file was updated, other than that I don't know
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> chendo: what do you want the machine to do exactly?
[02:32] <chendo> fyrestrtr: act as a router, so DHCP, NAT, firewlal
[02:32] <erUSUL> hkBst: in the dir /boot/ of your filesystem you should find the config files of the installed kernels
[02:32] <chendo> and i'll add other stuff later
[02:32] <chendo> but getting net to other computers is most important at the moment
[02:32] <quiet> greenman7, it's a Windows DNS server?
[02:32] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: I'll check that. Thanks.
[02:32] <greenman7> yes
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> chendo: to route, you need two networks. How are you connecting to the other network?
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> chendo: it there a modem installed?
[02:32] <quiet> greenman7, 2000 or 2003?
[02:32] <greenman7> 2000 - its an old boy
[02:32] <hkBst> erUSUL: there is no /boot on the xubuntu cd I got mounted
[02:33] <quiet> okay.
[02:33] <quiet> go to administrative toold.
[02:33] <quiet> tools*
[02:33] <chendo> fyrestrtr: modem->uplink port in hub, server in hub, rest of computers in hub
[02:33] <quiet> and open DNS
[02:33] <greenman7> yep in dns
[02:33] <MZM> how to kill process, if kill -9 PID does'nt work?
[02:33] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i've done this before, so i know it can be done
[02:33] <chendo> just wondering how to do it on ubuntu
[02:33] <greenman7> ok
[02:33] <hkBst> erUSUL: sorry I seem to be unclear. I want to get the config from the livecd without installing it
[02:34] <quiet> greenman7, under Forward Lookup Zones, you have abc.local?
[02:34] <Linuturk_code> I ripped some mp3's via sound juicer yesterday, using instructions from the forums. I couldn't pla them back in Rhythmbox. I got some sort of MIME error . . . have mutes in makeup taken over my computer?
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> Linuturk_code, you probably don't have the mp3 codecs...
[02:35] <Radiance`> sup
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> i do
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, i do
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> then I reccomend you not use rhythembox
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> :)
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> followed the directions via the restricted formats wiki
[02:35] <fyrestrtr> chendo: well, the shorewall page has a nice writeup on this, but its a lot easer if you have two network cards :)
[02:36] <Oni-Dracula> can you replicate the problem and give us the exact error
[02:36] <Oni-Dracula> ?
[02:36] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: that file was updated... I'll see if it does what I want after I restart the computer. Thanks again.
[02:36] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, well, i'm going to use .ogg for now . . . but I've got an RCA Lyra I want to use

[02:37] <chendo> and links/lynx would be a PITA
[02:37] <whadar> "gconf server is not in use, shutting down" maybe this is what causes my desktop not be shown?
[02:37] <Oni-Dracula> mmmm pita bread

[02:38] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, actually, i'll have to do it tonight

[02:57] <Bison> Master_5: is there an ubuntu equivilent to the arch rc.conf?
[02:57] <Bison> or similar?
[02:57] <nikin> cant get this working
[02:57] <Master_5> Bison: /etc/timezone
[02:58] <lukus001> Can anyone help me install cinelerra?
[02:58] <Bison> hmmm
[02:58] <nikin> i have a widscreen lcd, and i dont see the last few lines of the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
[02:58] <chendo_> i guess nobody helps much here ;/
[02:58] <nikin> what can i do?
[02:59] <uber_mort> Hi all, quick question...  I upgraded some packages this morning (mostly compiz stuff and libraries) and now my fonts all look like crap.  The KDE fonts aren't terrible, but anything that uses GTK looks crappy.  I'm not even running XGL + compiz right now either, so its not something specific to XGL + compiz.  Anyone have any ideas how to fix it, or what would be causing it?
[02:59] <kmasta> when i activate my wireless inter and exit out of the networking applet, i go to firefox and i can't get on the internet, i go back to networking only to see that my wireless connection isn't active, whats goign on?
[02:59] <Bison> I'm kind of confused now.  I have two distros installed.  If I change the time in ubuntu, then the time in arch gets screwed up and vice versa.
[02:59] <chendo_> Bison: UTC and Local time
[02:59] <chendo_> one distro is probably set to UTC, one's set to local.
[03:00] <nikin> kmasta: maybe WEP couses the prob
[03:00] <Bison> chendo_: where do I set that in ubuntu?
[03:00] <kmasta> nikin: does ubuntu work with 128 bit encryption?
[03:00] <chendo_> Bison: no clue, i just installed it today
[03:00] <nikin> kmasta: not realy
[03:00] <chendo_> i can't share my net so all i got is irssi ;/
[03:00] <Master_5> Bison chendo is right though
[03:00] <Bison> Anyone else no?
[03:00] <Bison> know*
[03:00] <nikin> many problems ocured, but 64 goes fine
[03:00] <Bison> Master_5: yeah, that makes sense
[03:00] <kmasta> nikin:well there in lies my problem
[03:00] <Master_5> Bison just sec i'll look
[03:01] <kmasta> nikin: what about 64-bit?
[03:01] <Bison> Master_5: okay, thanks
[03:01] <nikin> kmasta:its working fine
[03:01] <dpupp> is there a way to output dmesg to a file on desktop?
[03:01] <Master_5> Bison: in arch what is your timezone set to in rc.conf? local or gmt?
[03:01] <kmasta> nikin: do you know why it doesn't like 128, do you think they'll support that in newer version, possibly even WPA?
[03:02] <Bison> dpupp: dmesg > ~/Desktop/dmesg.file
[03:02] <Lajuj> howdy
[03:02] <Bison> Master_5: I think its set to local
[03:02] <Bison> Master_5: almost positive
[03:03] <Lajuj> I am in an interesting situation - I've just updated to 6.06 and can use wireless, but I can't even see eth1
[03:03] <dpupp> Thanks bison.
[03:03] <Bison> yeah buddy
[03:03] <av___> hi, does ubuntu 6.06 Cds (Live) have gnuparted in?
[03:04] <dhouse> anyone know what you need to set in ubuntu to allow me to run a XWindow app from a remote solaris box?  Other than setting xhost +, and exporting DISPLAY on the solaris box.
[03:04] <evan___> lajuj, did it work in previous versions?
[03:04] <Lajuj> yes
[03:04] <evan___> were you using ndsiwrapper?
[03:05] <av___> Lajuj: waas that for me?
[03:05] <Bison> av___: I don't think so, but you can always install it using apt-get
[03:05] <mtb> hi. just finished installing ubuntu desktop 6.06, and the only problem i have is that the position of the screen on my monitor is aligned slightly to the right. obviously this can just be fixed by manually adjusting the monitor. only problem now tho is when i boot back into windows, the alignment here is now messed up. any suggestions how to fix this?
[03:05] <evan___> lajuj
[03:05] <evan___> yes
[03:05] <Lajuj> tell evan I was using ndiswrapper, but for wireless I think
[03:05] <xevil> av___: yes it does...
[03:05] <Bison> mtb: uninstall windows?
[03:05] <Master_5> Bison: what timezone is ubuntu showing with the "date" command
[03:05] <Lajuj> I can use wireless now, I just can't use wired networks
[03:06] <Bison> EDT
[03:06] <av___> xevil: If I start an installation without shrinking a NTFS partition, will I be prompted to shrink it?
[03:06] <mtb> Bison: that is not an option on this machine.
[03:06] <Bison> mtb: i was kidding
[03:06] <uber_mort> Hi all, quick question...  I upgraded some packages this morning (mostly compiz stuff and libraries) and now my fonts all look like crap.  The KDE fonts aren't terrible, but anything that uses GTK looks crappy.  I'm not even running XGL + compiz right now either, so its not something specific to XGL + compiz.  Anyone have any ideas how to fix it, or what would be causing it?
[03:06] <nikin> kmasta: there is a howto for WPA
[03:06] <Master_5> bison make sure that arch is set to local....that sounds like your prob
[03:07] <sioux> Hi people I have this error with javaws applets: com.zerog.lax.LAX.launch(Unknown Source) I could not find a solution on google any help?
[03:07] <xevil> av___: the install is pretty painless... yes
[03:07] <richiefrich> uber_mort what fonts do u have and whats in  your xorg.conf
[03:07] <nikin> i have a widscreen lcd, and i dont see the last few lines of the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
[03:07] <av___> thanks xevil, Bison
[03:07] <richiefrich> uber_mort  are they all in there .. ?
[03:07] <Bison> sioux: sounds like some java libs you need to find
[03:08] <Lajuj> I think it is weird that I cannot see my ethernet card.  In the previous version it worked with no config
[03:08] <Bison> Master_5: So your saying that since it lists EDT in date that its set to local time?
[03:08] <sioux> bison I installed java as per ubuntu guide my ver in 1_5_0_6
[03:08] <chendo_> question: can i use debian sarge's deb sources in ubuntu?
[03:08] <Master_5> Bison: that's not what i'm saying
[03:08] <uber_mort> richiefrich: What do you mean exactly?  I have a bunch of fonts.  KDE is set to use DejaVu Sans.
[03:08] <Bison> sioux: yes, but com.zerog.lax.LAX does not sound like proprietary sun java stuff
[03:09] <richiefrich> uber_mort   and what xorg-server ver ?
[03:09] <Bison> Master_5: Then how can I tell if I'm set to local or utc on ubuntu?
[03:09] <richiefrich> uber_mort pastebin the xorg.conf
[03:10] <uber_mort> richiefrich: Will do, one sec
[03:10] <sioux> bison I am trying to install plarpebu is a karaoke
[03:10] <Bison> sioux: http://www.macrovision.com/zg_to_mvsn.shtml
[03:10] <richiefrich> uber_mort and also what does --> ls -la /usr/share/fonts/
[03:10] <richiefrich> uber_mort show ?
[03:11] <Aurorius> hi.. just a simple question.. how to minimize the GAIM away message  ?
[03:11] <Master_5> Bison try running tzconfig
[03:11] <uber_mort> richiefrich: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20874 for xorg, I'll paste the ls -la /usr/share/fonts in a second
[03:11] <tabman> I've a dual boot ubuntu+xp, I need to reinstall windows by formatting my drive which has windows on it, will I need to redo ubuntu as well. What would be the procedure so that my current ubuntu installation remains untouched and grub detects the new windows installation automatically ?
[03:12] <Lajuj> does anyone have advice for helping 6.06 find eth1.  When I run ifconfig I only see lo and wlan0
[03:13] <richiefrich> uber_mort and also what does --> ls -la /usr/share/fonts/  <-- paste that to please
[03:13] <uber_mort> richiefrich: I've pasted it, refresh the paste bin
[03:14] <chendo_> arno's iptables script >>>>>>> shorewall.
[03:14] <chendo_> 2 minutes and i was in
[03:14] <richiefrich> uber_mort no i see the --> xorg.conf
[03:14] <richiefrich> not the dir
[03:15] <uber_mort> richiefrich: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20875 its at the very bottom after the xorg
[03:15] <richiefrich> ah the number changed :P
[03:16] <richiefrich>  74 b 4
[03:16] <siXy> Hi people, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu server.  It doesnt get pas "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, Booting the kernel."
[03:16] <tabman> I've a dual boot ubuntu+xp, I need to reinstall windows by formatting my drive which has windows on it, will I need to redo ubuntu as well. What would be the procedure so that my current ubuntu installation remains untouched and grub detects the new windows installation automatically ?
[03:16] <richiefrich> uber_mort   and what xorg-server ver ?
[03:17] <uber_mort> richiefrich: Xorg 7.0
[03:17] <siXy> tabman are they on physically seperate disks?
[03:17] <Thunderpants> tabman, after u reinstall xp, boot ur ubuntu disk, type rescue, go thru the steps to get to a prompt, then type grub-install /dev/hdX
[03:17] <richiefrich> no the xorg-server
[03:17] <richiefrich> uber_mort  no the xorg-server
[03:17] <Thunderpants> where X is the number of the partition root is on
[03:18] <tabman> sixy: yes
[03:18] <sioux> bison java applets make diffeferenz if I use it on windows or linux? I mean once installed java the OS (windows or Linux) should not make difference right?
[03:18] <siXy> if you currently use your winxp disk as the primary disk do as thunderpants said
[03:18] <uber_mort> richiefrich: How do I find that?  I did an Xorg -version and it says 7.0.0
[03:19] <siXy> otherwise just install windows normally. In either case, unplug your linux hdd while you do it.
[03:19] <richiefrich> uber_mort can u do it with  apt-get
[03:19] <tabman> siXy: how do I unplug my linux partition ?
[03:19] <Lajuj> sorry for asking again, but does anyone have advice for helping 6.06 find eth1?  When I run ifconfig I only see lo and wlan0
[03:19] <siXy> open your computer and remove the cables from the linux hard drive
[03:20] <tabman> siXy: I have 1 HDD but both OS are on separate partitions
[03:20] <quiet> Lajuj, ifconfig -a also only shows eth0?
[03:20] <uber_mort> richiefrich: I'm sorry, I'm not sure how to get it with apt :-/
[03:20] <siXy> "<siXy> tabman are they on physically seperate disks?"....
[03:20] <tabman> siXy: no there is only 1 HDD in my system
[03:21] <freeze_> hi
[03:21] <Lajuj> quiet ifconfig shows only lo and wlan0 and no eth? nothing
[03:21] <tabman> but the HDD has 4 partitions
[03:21] <siXy> then do what thunder siad, but be careful to install windows to the right partition
[03:21] <World_Lighter> buenos dias
[03:21] <quiet> Lajuj, 'ifconfig -a'
 how big is ubuntu exactly?
 huge
 massive
 hs_125: you uninstalled it? as in apt-get remove j2re1.4 ?
 exactly this big <---------------->
[03:21] <quiet> not ifconfig
[03:22] <freeze_> I am using a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.06 but Nautilus doesn't seem to work...it gives an error for having been unexpectantly shut down, any ideas?
[03:22] <Lajuj> okay, now i see lo, wlan0 and sit0
[03:22] <richiefrich> uber_mort  hmm idk either..    thats quit weird that the fonts changed
[03:22] <uber_mort> is there any way to roll back everything I upgraded today without knowing which packages it was?
[03:22] <quiet> NIC is unsupported?  is this a laptop?
[03:22] <siXy> lajuj if eth0 does not show up, it means it isnt loaded. type dmegs and look for messages refferring to your NIC
[03:22] <uber_mort> because I can just uninstall XGL / compiz
[03:22] <siXy> *dmesg
[03:22] <Lajuj> yes quiet
[03:22] <tabman> ok Thanks
[03:22] <uber_mort> or roll everything back
[03:22] <quiet> Lajuj, what is the NIC?
[03:23] <richiefrich> uber_mort u can look in the logs
[03:23] <richiefrich> uber_mort see what was updated
[03:23] <World_Lighter> im on a fresh install of ubuntu and 2nd monitor is being a whore
[03:23] <martinz> kann mir jemand helfenen einen kartenleser (cyberjack pinpad usb) unter ubuntu dapper zum laufen zu bringen? danke schonmal
[03:23] <World_Lighter> any help? :)
[03:23] <Lajuj> quiet, I am not sure what is NIC
[03:23] <root___> What's the syntax for enabling ssh from any host?
[03:23] <quiet> Lajuj, lspci | grep Ethernet
[03:23] <shay> !tell kingsing about root
[03:23] <martinz> quit
[03:24] <Thunderpants> !de
[03:24] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[03:24] <Lajuj> quiet, nothing happens when i grep ethernet
[03:24] <kingsing> shay: But what do I write in hosts.allow to allow ssh from any host? ssh: ALL: ALL?
[03:24] <quiet> Lajuj, did you grep 'ethernet' or 'Ethernet' ???
[03:25] <Lajuj> quiet, I did both actually
[03:25] <kingsing> quiet: Wouldn't it be better to grep "thernet"?
[03:25] <quiet> kingsing, well NICs are displayed as 'Ethernet controller:'
[03:25] <quiet> so it matters not.
[03:25] <shay> Lajuj, quiet; use grep with the "-i" option
[03:25] <kingsing> quiet: Well it would if he'd write ethernet..
[03:26] <kingsing> Or that.
[03:26] <rixxon> does livecd use grub aswell?
[03:26] <Captain_Fleming> Hi.
[03:26] <harisund> Hello! Is there a way I can let Ubiquity know that I want the Grub installed in another place? I want to tri boot AMD64 Ubuntu, i386 Ubuntu and Windows XP. Right now i have i386 and WindowsXP on the main grub.
[03:26] <alex_> eso
[03:26] <quiet> Lajuj, looks to me like your nic is unsupported.
[03:26] <quiet> you can try ndiswrapper.
[03:26] <Captain_Fleming> Anyone here knows how to make ntfs read/write for a normal user.?
[03:27] <harisund> Captain_Fleming what driver are you using to access the ntfs partition.
[03:27] <Lajuj> quiet, that is what I did to get my wireless to work under the last version, and it has continued to work
[03:27] <quiet> Captain_Fleming, google fuse ntfs
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: for the moment fuse
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> quiet: :)
[03:27] <Lajuj> what is weird is that under 6.06 it is no longer supported it seems
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> But I get this really annoying error...
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> fusermount: mount failed: Invalid argument
[03:27] <dpupp> is it possible for me to remove images i uploaded to the galler forums?
[03:27] <quiet> Lajuj, so the nic worked under breezy?
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> When I do sudo mount -a
[03:27] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah
[03:27] <Macom> hi !
[03:28] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I use ntfs-3g. If I am not much mistaken when mounting you can say the options -o uid=1000, gid=1000 which would give write access to the user with uid of 1000 (which would be the first user)
[03:28] <dpupp> i uploaded the wrong one...
[03:28] <harisund> Captain_Fleming can you post the output of your /etc/fstab somewhere?
[03:28] <quiet> Lajuj, did you dist-upgrade or fresh install?
[03:28] <azureal> hi, is there a way to see how fast an interface is? (preferably commandline)
[03:28] <Captain_Fleming> Moment...
[03:28] <Lajuj> quiet, I did dist-upgrade
[03:28] <quiet> Lajuj, i'd bet that some of your kernel modules didn't get upgraded
[03:28] <azureal> for example, i'd like to see an output such as 1Gbit for eth0, or 54Mbit for eth1
[03:28] <harisund> Hello! Is there a way I can let Ubiquity know that I want the Grub installed in another place? I want to tri boot AMD64 Ubuntu, i386 Ubuntu and Windows XP. Right now i have i386 and WindowsXP on the main grub.
[03:29] <harisund> azureal that would not be very easy. You could monitor the output of ifconfig, under the sections TX and RX for amount transferred and received.
[03:29] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20876
[03:29] <Lajuj> quiet, can update the kernel to fix that?
[03:29] <quiet> azureal, lspci will usually tell you the speed
[03:29] <quiet> Lajuj, you would probably need something like restricted-modules for your kernel.
[03:29] <azureal> harisund: ok, that's what i thought at first
[03:29] <kingsing> where do I start the ssh-daemon?
[03:30] <dpupp> where do i go to delete this: http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=3337
[03:30] <quiet> Lajuj, what does uname -r say
[03:30] <siXy> I'm having trouble installing ubuntu server.  It doesnt get pas "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, Booting the kernel." any ideas?
[03:30] <Lajuj> quiet, 2.6.15-26-386
[03:30] <Macom> i had some problems to open a wmp streaming video from firefox. does anyone can help me please ? i had trying to install vlc and his plugin for firefox but it say me "(no-picture)" :/
[03:31] <Captain_Fleming> siXy: How about waiting? It takes a while... :)
[03:31] <kingsing> Anyone who knows how to start ssh?
[03:31] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I think we should try to manually mount the partition first. then we will edit /etc/fstab. I am not able to detect any mistake in the fstab off the top of my head.
[03:31] <siXy> captain flemming - not all day it doesnt
[03:31] <quiet> Lajuj, what does sudo aptitude search linux-restricted-modules have by ... modules-386  ?
[03:31] <ardchoille> kingsing:  ssh user@host
[03:31] <harisund> kingsing if you have SSH installed, sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart
[03:31] <Captain_Fleming> siXy: You sure it is the right kernel version?
[03:31] <azureal> harisund, RX and TX seem cumulative
[03:31] <kingsing> harisund: Where do I make it permanent? I can't find rc.conf
[03:32] <harisund> ardchoille ! I remember you from a forum paste I made... about ssh-agent and stuff.. by the way, in the Gnome desktop, /etc/xdg/autostart is where update-manager is.
[03:32] <siXy> Its the most recent ubuntu server iso.  just pressing the install to hard disk button atm - is there an option ive missed?
[03:32] <Lajuj> quiet, i   linux-restricted-modules-386 - Restricted Linux modules on 386.
[03:32] <harisund> azureal yes it is, I guess you could measure the difference between say, 5 seconds, for some real time data.
[03:32] <harisund> kingsing are you sure you have installed SSH server?
[03:32] <ardchoille> harisund: Ah, thanks
[03:32] <kingsing> harisund: it's not in init.d
[03:33] <harisund> Captain_Fleming did you try mounting it manually?
[03:33] <shriphani> where can i get breezy badger ?
[03:33] <quiet> Lajuj, and you've rebooted since you dist-upgraded?
[03:33] <ardchoille> harisund: I didn't install ssh server and I can ssh into that box
[03:33] <siXy> its a VIA P4X533 based motherboard if thats relevant
[03:33] <kingsing> harisund: I guess not.. Is it openssh I should get?
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, yes
[03:33] <quiet> Lajuj, it would be really helpful if you knew what your NIC was.
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Worked as a charm, but did not give my user access...
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, but it never hurts to reboot and keep on rebooting
[03:33] <harisund> kingsing try executing 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server'. It should install the server and make sure it starts up every time you reboot.
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, I am not sure what NIC is?
[03:33] <mwh_> Hello, I have a quick question about Rosetta, is it posible without beeing a member of a team to translate with Rosetta and then send this translation to one who is a member to incorporate it?
[03:33] <harisund> Captain_Fleming what is your username?
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Only the root may access, and that is (imho) not safe enough...
[03:33] <quiet> yeah... you said that.
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> cpf
[03:33] <quiet> so... we have no idea what module it needs.
[03:34] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20877
[03:34] <kingsing> harisund: Automaticly? But where do I see all the daemons etc that starts at boot up?
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, I don't even know what the letters NIC stand for
[03:34] <quiet> Network Interface Card
[03:34] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, okay
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, I can figure that out
[03:34] <harisund> kingsing the daemons are all at /etc/init.d. Whether are not they startup at run level 'n' is determined by looking at /etc/rcn.d. If there is a shortcut to the daemon, it gets started. Else not.
[03:35] <harisund> Captain_Fleming from your second page, I am guessing what you should be entering in your fstab is not ntfs-fuse (in the third column)..
[03:35] <kingsing> harisund: Ok. thanks.
[03:35] <mwh_> anyone know a translation channel for ubuntu?
[03:35] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: what should it be then?
[03:35] <kashual> moins
[03:36] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I am looking (rather, googling). Will let you know in an instant.
[03:36] <kingsing> harisund: I don't have an rcn.d only rcS.d
[03:36] <harisund> kingsing I meant, substitute n with your run level number.
[03:36] <harisund> For run level 6 (restart) you would see in rc6.d and so on.
[03:36] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: If all not works, could you give me a little howto page for ntfs-3g ?
[03:36] <dpupp> anyone here use the gallery section of the forums? im trying to find where to edit/delete.... ? ......
[03:37] <kashual> exit
[03:37] <harisund> Captain_Fleming hmmm hang on.. are you running i386 or AMD64?
[03:37] <dpupp> i only see uploads.
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: I don't know them.. In my other distros there's always only been 1 :P
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> i386
[03:37] <Filipe245> good afternoon
[03:37] <harisund> kingsing which other distros?
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> pCeleron
[03:37] <harisund> Captain_Fleming ok hang on. I am more familiar with ntfs-3g I will give that to you in an instant.
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: arch, slack etc...
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Thanks a lot :)
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: why?
[03:37] <Filipe245> I chmoded the /usr/ directory with 700 ... banging my head on the wall didn't solve the problem. What can I do?
[03:38] <harisund> kingsing I was just wondering whether or not those used sysV type init run levels.
[03:38] <Lajuj> quiet, I know it ia broadcom mini pci card, TM1300
[03:38] <harisund> Filipe245 why would you have to do that?
[03:38] <shriphani> where do i get previous ubuntu  ersions ?
[03:38] <Filipe245> harisund curiosity =/
[03:38] <harisund> Captain_Fleming searching, hang on .. I am trying to find out that very important repo that you have to add to your sources.list (hope you are familiar with that?)
[03:38] <kingsing> harisund: Don't know what that is.
[03:39] <henrysixwives> Hey, I have a strange question.  I've been trying to install Ubuntu onto my machine with a new Mobo in it without much success.  The desktop CD keeps freezing.   I've just notived that Ubuntu recommends a different CD for chips based on "EM64T" and then goes on to talk lots about AMD chips.   My new Mobo has an Intel chip, yet on the box it says EM64T.    Should I be installing with the 64-bit CD?
[03:39] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Not really, but I will be soon ;)
[03:39] <kingsing> harisund: Can I remove stuff from the "rc*.d" then to have them not start at boot-time?
[03:39] <DrBanzai> Anybody here use minicom?
[03:39] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: sorry, I have already added some stuff in my sources.list thingy :) Did not work though (was for splashy :P)
[03:39] <harisund> kingsing basically in Debian and Ubuntu (and even RedHat based systems) there is one directory called /etc/init.d which has all services. The services can be started or stopped as root by doing /etc/init.d/service_name {start,stop}
[03:39] <haresltd> what does it mean when i type $make 536
[03:39] <haresltd> and it says
[03:39] <haresltd> :
[03:39] <harisund> Captain_Fleming no problem ..
[03:39] <quiet> Lajuj, isn't the TM 1300 a wifi card?
[03:40] <Lajuj> quiet, oh shoot
[03:40] <haresltd>    Module precompile check
[03:40] <haresltd>    Current running kernel is: 2.6.12-10-386
[03:40] <haresltd>    /lib/modules...   autoconf.h does not exist
[03:40] <haresltd>    please install kernel source
[03:40] <haresltd> make: *** [check]  Error 1
[03:40] <harisund> kingsing what you would have to do is yes, delete the shortcuts in rc*.d and they will neither start during boot time nor end during shut down time.
[03:40] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: Have you done ./configure already?
[03:40] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah, you are right
[03:40] <haresltd> nope, lol
[03:40] <kingsing> harisund: That I know. But in arch I have a "daemon" array where I add all my daemons that should start at boot-up.. Arch is a veru minimalistic distro however,
[03:40] <quiet> oo.. pretty.
[03:41] <haresltd> haresltd@ubuntusys:~/Desktop/driver/Intel-536$ ./configure
[03:41] <haresltd> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[03:41] <Lajuj> quiet, I am looking on my original config on the dell websit, but I don't anything, only the wifi card and modem
[03:41] <harisund> kingsing yes...interesting. there are tools in debian/ubuntu where you can do the modifications. I believe BUM (boot up manager) is a graphical tool and sysvrcconf or something is a ncurses based GUI.
[03:41] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: the normal installation (compilation) is './configure' (if you don't get through that, like me, you are screwed), 'make', and 'make install'
[03:41] <DevGet> donen't ubuntu has the rndc command?
[03:41] <quiet> Lajuj, what is the model?
[03:41] <kingsing> harisund: I prefer a simple config file :/
[03:41] <Lajuj> quiet, d600
[03:41] <lukus001> Can anyone tell me how to fix this error when trying to install cinelerrra? heres there error i get durring "make" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20879
[03:42] <rulus> hi, anyone known how to add an emblem to a folder with command line?
[03:42] <harisund> kingsing so in those distros you mention in a config file which service to start when?
[03:42] <quiet> Lajuj, latitude?
[03:42] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah
[03:42] <dpupp> 18hours later.... i cant figure out whats going on with this network card.... So I posted a link to the forums. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140330&page=2 (cntinuing an existing thread. )
[03:42] <kingsing> harisund: Yeah.. So it's very easy to see what's to start etc..
[03:42] <haresltd> hmm... so i am screwed, i cannot install this driver ?
[03:42] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: what u try to do?
[03:42] <haresltd> i am installing intel 536ep modem drivers

[03:43] <haresltd> gcc, cpp and whatnot
[03:43] <haresltd> i can make clean
[03:43] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: uhm, is there no .deb package for that?
[03:43] <haresltd> but make 536 doesnt work
[03:43] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: you are familiar with teh command line, right?
[03:43] <haresltd> i am following the stps from the wiki
[03:43] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: why make 536?
[03:43] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Yes :)

[03:46] <rulus> bestial: both :)
[03:46] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: What am I supposed to get?
[03:46] <kingsing> mus0: It's usually something like that.
[03:46] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: nothing. Now execute 'sudo apt-get update'
[03:46] <Captain_Fleming> ok :)
[03:47] <bestial> rulus, that didn't seem to work... or, what should it be set on? :)
[03:47] <harisund> haresltd: sorry hang on.. I will download and have a look.
[03:47] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: And after that 'sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g'?
[03:47] <haresltd> ok, thanks :)
[03:47] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: meanwhile, once you are done with that you are right. go ahead and do that.

[03:47] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: bad news :(

[03:48] <Lajuj> quiet, hey, thanks for the help btw
[03:48] <harisund> Captain_Fleming yeah I figured. Hang on, can you list the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list and check what is in there?
[03:48] <quiet> Lajuj, np... i'm trying to see what kernel module it needs
[03:48] <Polkadots> Can anyone help me make midi playback work through an external midi device connected through USB?
[03:48] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: echo deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list. In this command I hope youincluded the -a? Otherwise we are bombed :)
[03:49] <bestial> rulus, maybe, but the if I want a list i nautilus (if that is what the "explorer" in ubuntu is named?) with small icons, doesn't "Default 100%) show big icons there to?
[03:49] <Lajuj> quiet, cool
[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> cpf-desktop% cat /etc/apt/resources.list
[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main

[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> Did I?
[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> Uuhm...
[03:49] <siXy> i would be surprised if you find the answer here
[03:50] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: hmmm.. ok hang on ..(check in your history to make sure you added the -a. -a is to append to the file. else it overwritees the file.
[03:50] <harisund> haresltd: ahh I downloaded it in my school's windows machine that can't extract .tgz files. Give me an instant.
[03:50] <Captain_Fleming> cpf-desktop% echo deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/resources.list
[03:50] <Captain_Fleming> This is what my history says...
[03:50] <haresltd> okay :)
[03:50] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: Whoa! Just execute the same commands and change resources to sources
[03:50] <harisund> include the -a.The file name is /etc/apt/sources.list and not /etc/apt/resources.list :)
[03:50] <bestial> Aaah! rulus that made it! :) It was me who was insane and had made the adjustments as good as a monkey. :)
[03:51] <quiet> Lajuj, aptitude install bcm5700-source
[03:51] <Captain_Fleming> :P
[03:51] <Captain_Fleming> Whahaha
[03:51] <bestial> Thank you for clearing that one out,.
[03:51] <rulus> bestial: lol, fine its ok now :)
[03:51] <Lajuj> quiet, ok
[03:51] <bestial> rulus, yeah. :)
[03:51] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: then you would do 'sudo sh -c "apt-get update; apt-get install ntfs-3g"
[03:52] <Lajuj> quiet, done
[03:52] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: ;) I'm ahead of you :)
[03:52] <Lajuj> quiet, should i reboot?
[03:52] <MetaMorfoziS> how can is setup for one application isn't use swap, only memory
[03:52] <MetaMorfoziS> ?
[03:53] <siXy> hmm this cd is still not booting. ubuntu-alternate will not boot either.  the via VIA P4X533 isnt listed as unsupported so im really stuck here
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Is it normal that I need to reboot?
[03:53] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: not in Linux, no.
[03:53] <siXy> nothign wrong with the hardware as centos will run on it...
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Yet, there is this box that asks me to reboot -_-'
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> Owh, wait...
[03:54] <harisund> Captain_Fleming that is probably becasue you installed a new kernel.
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> That was because there was an update...
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> Moment, I'll reboot now, could you in the mean time find me a good howto?
[03:54] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I will tell you ...before you reboot hang on.
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> Zdra: Welkom :)
[03:55] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: do lsmod | grep fuse to make sure the fuse module is loaded?
[03:55] <rulus> hi, anyone knows how to add an emblem to a folder with the command line?
[03:55] <ookami> i want to Delete mrv8k.ko driver from /lib/modules/...kernel...  is there a safe way to do this? ...
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> cpf-desktop% lsmod | grep fuse
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> fuse                   38412  2
[03:56] <quiet> Lajuj, use module-assistant to build the driver... aptitude install module-assistant && module-assistant prepare && module-assistant auto-install bcm5700
[03:56] <whirm> hi
[03:56] <whirm> someone knows where can I find developer documentation about ubiquity?
[03:56] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: now .. I am modifying your pasting so you can see what to add in your /etc/fstab list
[03:56] <Captain_Fleming> ok
[03:57] <Lajuj> quiet, I am getting a weird error - I sudo'ed the commad, but module assistant says I am not root
[03:57] <harisund> haresltd: sorry for the delay. I finally managed to download a SCP client to access my Windows box. Ok so here we go, what did you do? make 586?
[03:57] <haresltd> yeah
[03:57] <quiet> sudo su -
[03:58] <haresltd> and it says missing autoconf.h
[03:58] <quiet> then do it.
[03:58] <ookami> how do i see if a file exists on my computer? im looking for mrv8k.ko to delete it.
[03:58] <harisund> haresltd: did you try installing autoconf then?
[03:58] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: just an instant.
[03:59] <Captain_Fleming> ok :)
[03:59] <harisund> Captain_Fleming under what username and gruop do you want it to be loaded?
[03:59] <haresltd> harisund: how do i do that? lol
[03:59] <Captain_Fleming> username=cpf group=ntfs
[03:59] <haresltd> i am a bit of a newb as you can tell :p
[03:59] <harisund> haresltd: execute on the command line 'sudo apt-get install autoconf'
[03:59] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: Do you know the uid and gid of those? As in the number? do you know how to find out?
[03:59] <mus0> on a box with win and ubuntu
[03:59] <siXy> ah ok found the issue. should have known really.
[03:59] <mus0> I fiddled with the linux partitions via a windows app.
[03:59] <harisund> YAY! I managed to tri boot my system. Ubiquity identified everything correctly ... sweet ......
[04:00] <Lajuj> quiet, okay,  it is installing
[04:00] <mus0> and broke grub, it seems.
[04:00] <Captain_Fleming> hhm... harisund gid=1001 for sure, I think uid should be 1001 too (or 1000)
[04:00] <rulus> hi, anyone knows how to add an emblem to a folder with the command line?
[04:00] <haresltd> E: Package autoconf has no installation candidate
[04:00] <mus0> booted from the ubuntu live cd now.
[04:00] <DrBanzai> Anybody here know how to get minicom to work when talking to something OTHER then a modem?
[04:00] <harisund> ok wait .. cat /etc/group | grep ntfs gives you gid
[04:00] <mus0> can I gix grub from here?
[04:00] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: grub-install /dev/<your drive>
[04:00] <harisund> cat /etc/passwd | grep cpf gives your uid, Captain_Fleming
[04:01] <haresltd> nm, i fixed that
[04:01] <harisund> haresltd: is that a new machine you are working on? Did you make any modifications to your sources.list repository listing?
[04:01] <Captain_Fleming> 1000
[04:01] <xiko1> k my noob friend just chmod 700 his /usr.  Is there any way I can fix it with the Live Cd or something?
[04:01] <mus0> thank you Captain_Fleming. let me try that.
[04:01] <Lajuj> quiet, done
[04:01] <haresltd> harisund: yeah, it is actually 5.10 and its a new install, and i haven't modified anything as far as i am aware
[04:01] <harisund> xiko1 by any chance is it Filipe245? He asked the same thing earlier, am surprised why nobody responded.
[04:01] <Aurorius> hi.. anyone free ? wanna ask a question about gaim
[04:02] <harisund> haresltd so could you get autoconf?
[04:02] <quiet> Lajuj, modprobe bcm5700
[04:02] <xiko1> harisund: yes, he is b my side, he rebooted and of course gnome didnt open. He cant even sudo anymore
[04:02] <haresltd> harisund: yeah actually i ran an sudo apt-get update and then it was able to get autoconf
[04:02] <xiko1> harisund: we are just looking for a way to fix it without total reinstall
[04:02] <haresltd> but now when i do make 536 it still says missing autoconf.h
[04:02] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: have live cd there?
[04:03] <Lajuj> quiet,  weird, nothing
[04:03] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: yes
[04:03] <harisund> haresltd: ok let me check.
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: working on that now?
[04:03] <quiet> lsmod | grep bcm
[04:03] <haresltd> lol, thanks
[04:03] <mus0> Captain_Fleming, did that with "sudo grub-install" from a terminal.
[04:03] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: not him, I will do that and ask from there
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: Yes?
[04:03] <RalleAb> why is it that the synaptic doesnt have wine?
[04:03] <xiko1> brb then
[04:03] <mus0> got "could not find device for /boot
[04:03] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20884 check the last 4 lines. I commented 2 of your last lines and added mine.

[04:04] <Linuturk_code> ok . . . dreamweaver officially sucks
[04:04] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: then check in your /etc/modules to see if fuse is loaded during startup. If not, just add the word 'fuse' at the bottm of the file.
[04:04] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: did that earlier :)
[04:04] <Linuturk_code> it's lagging behind with 2000 lines of html . . . on a fast machine. Got a replacement besides NVU ?
[04:04] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: ah yes. Ok cool.
[04:05] <MZM> Linuturk_code: Quanta+
[04:05] <RalleAb> it said I needed to do this: debhttp://wine.budgetdedicated.com/aptdappermain (how do I do that)
[04:05] <harisund> haresltd: oh wait wait .. do you have kernel sources installed?
[04:05] <ahammond> I want to get a monitor for my laptop. I need to find out what the hardware can support. How do I find out what kind of video card / memory my box has? Or better still, what's the maximum resolution it can support?
[04:05] <Lajuj> quiet, ifconfig -a still gives sit0
[04:05] <Linuturk_code> i'll look into it MZM
[04:05] <mus0> Captain_Fleming, so this is not working...
[04:05] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Uhm, my normal user still gets access denies...
[04:05] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: did that? Then unmount everything you might have mounted and remount using 'sudo mount -a'
[04:05] <mus0> anyway to use gnome partitioner or something to fix things?
[04:05] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: It should
[04:05] <haresltd> harisund: i'm not sure
[04:05] <haresltd> lmao
[04:05] <Aurorius> how can i minimize away message in gaim ?
[04:06] <harisund> haresltd: paste the output of 'uname -a' here?
[04:06] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: if not, try google: 'grub', go to the manual, and try with that advice.

[04:06] <Captain_Fleming> then I did 'cd /media/C'
[04:06] <harisund> Captain_Fleming can you try to find out under what permissions the folder has been mounted? Try to do a ls -l on the /media folder?
[04:06] <harisund> RalleAb: what?
[04:06] <RalleAb> how can I add stuff to repitoire?

[04:07] <MrKeuner> hi, last year when I bought 64 bit processor for my sister's laptop I installed debian on it, it was great except some non-free applications such as realplayer, macromedia, etc. did not have 64 bit binaries as well as some issues with openoffice and ndiswrapper device binaries etc. what is the situation of 64 bit processors today? is it still a bit early to buy one for ordinary desktop user?

[04:08] <cdubya> Apeiron, did you do update-alternatives?

[04:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repertoire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:08] <ahammond> MrKeuner: unless you need binary kernel modules (stuff like nvidia or ndis) then 64bit is fine for desktop boxes.
[04:08] <Captain_Fleming> lol, I'll edit ;)
[04:09] <Apeiron> cdubya, oh, possible that i forgot that... lemme check :)
[04:09] <ahammond> MrKeuner: you can run 64 and 32 bit binaries on a 64b os. :)
[04:09] <harisund> haresltd: execute-> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[04:09] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: It was supposed to be uid=cpf...
[04:09] <Stromberg`> when you install the nvidia driver. is it normal  that the mouse cursor flickers badly when sth loads?
[04:09] <ninn> how can i create kernel-modules?
[04:09] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: But it still does not work :(
[04:09] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: So it still loads as uid root?
[04:09] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: ok im in the chmod 700 /usr machine
[04:10] <Captain_Fleming> xikol: Do chmod 777 /usr
[04:10] <harisund> Captain_Fleming you unmounted and remounted after changing cfs to cpf right?
[04:10] <J_P> hi all..
[04:10] <Captain_Fleming> Jep, moment harisund
[04:10] <Apeiron> cdubya, much thx :)
[04:10] <cdubya> np

[04:11] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: and I'm not sure...
[04:11] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: done already of course with sudo /D

[04:13] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I told you to do that first :) Glad it worked. Now go ahead and reboot and have fun with your new kernel.
[04:13] <harisund> haresltd: any luck?
[04:13] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: nope, first help someone else out :)
[04:13] <harisund> Captain_Fleming you mean here?
[04:13] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: yep
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming sharing the love, eh?
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: I'm helping out the 'chmod 700' thing...
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Of course :)
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: ah ok.
[04:14] <haresltd> harisund: yeah
[04:14] <haresltd> getting a bit farther now, thanks :)
[04:14] <harisund> haresltd: so how far along are we?
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: That is something I can handle -_-' the rest I cannot =(
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: you mean, cannot 'yet'.
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: indeed :)
[04:14] <haresltd> i am up to installing the Intel536.ko file
[04:14] <harisund> sweet ....
[04:15] <Aurorius> err.. quick question.. how can i minimize away message in gaim ?
[04:15] <harisund> haresltd: did you read the readme.txt file?
[04:15] <harisund> Aurorius: I haven't found a way to do that myself. I just move it to another workspace :)
[04:15] <haresltd> yeah, i read it, but i seemed a bit different from the information on the wiki
[04:15] <siXy> can ubuntu cope with 2 independant swap partitions in case one disk dies?
[04:15] <harisund> haresltd: keep me posted on how it goes.
[04:15] <harisund> siXy: no reason why it can't.
[04:15] <siXy> or is one mirrored swap parttion better?
[04:15] <manmadha> is it possible to get FM radio on net
[04:15] <haresltd> harisund: will do :D
[04:16] <harisund> siXy: make sure theswap partitions are identified in the fstab or something. and I don't know if 'swap' partitions can be mirroed.
[04:16] <siXy> not sure how early ubuntu loads the raid drivers
[04:16] <Aurorius> harisund: lol.. it's still a solution.. thanks !
[04:16] <whirm> siXy: if you have 2 swap partitions and one dies, the system goes all the way down...
[04:16] <doughboy> Can someone point me in the right direction on printer sharing between an ubuntu box and laptop running windows?
[04:16] <manmadha> is it possible to get FM radio on net
[04:17] <J_P> HEY ALL, anyone know what is problem with gnome-terminal ?
[04:17] <harisund> J_P: what problem?
[04:17] <BlueEagle> manmadha: That would really be up to where you are in the world.
[04:17] <siXy> ok, so lets give a mirrored swap partition a try then
[04:17] <PingunZ> hey, any guides for setting up phpbb ?
[04:18] <manmadha> BlueEagle, ya but it is possible to listen the programs on net?
[04:18] <BlueEagle> manmadha: FM is a (relatively) short range system so if you've got a station streamin FM stations then you're still not guaranteed that they will be streaming the FM stations in your area.
[04:18] <beesandflowers> hello when trying to install ubuntu on my laptop i get a "kernel panic not syncing: VFS - unable to mount root fs on unknown block..."; i tried using the following options ide=nodma noapic nolapic as options but alas, to no avail. can anybody point me in the right direction please, i think i exhausted google as well...
[04:18] <stray77> phpbb is a easy to setup, its the apache, php, mysql thats tough
[04:18] <manmadha> BlueEagle, ya i have an FM station so near
[04:18] <phaedrus44> what is this nUbuntu ?
[04:19] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[04:19] <siXy> ubuntu server has an automagic lamp install thingie
[04:19] <manmadha> BlueEagle, what is the process/
[04:19] <harisund> manmadha here is one place you can start: http://www.live-radio.net/
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> Soo nice, hearing my mp3's after some what 2hours of installation :)
[04:19] <phaedrus44> can i use network ubuntu as my home distro ?
[04:19] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: from your ntfs partition you mean?
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Jep:)
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: I know I could do read-only, but I just need rw...
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I know ntfs-3g works fine, but I won't vouch for its safety. better have some form of backup for your ntfs files though.
[04:20] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Now I should be able to run wine on any program I have on my disk of win32... AND be able to store stuff :)
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: uh ok. I don't use Wine, and know *practically nothing* about it.
[04:20] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Ok, I'll backup everything on my linux...
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I just dual boot anyway.
[04:20] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[04:21] <J_P> harisund: , I use gnome-terminal, always for all works.. today ubuntu show the updates to do and udates gnome-terminal too. Weel, Now Some times (ramdomic) when I try open some gnome-terminal show to me message "error in apllication gnome-terminal, You want close, restart os send message to developers" Any choice close ALL gnome-terminals that I have openend and working...  anyone know what is the problema, this is very important, becouse I use gnome-terminal to w
[04:21] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I meant back up everything on ntfs. ntfs-3g might suddenly go crazy sometime and might wipe the ntfs partition, (in the extreme worst hopefully-never-happens case of course)
[04:21] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: uhm...
[04:21] <harisund> J_P: ah ... hmmm...perhaps somebody else might be able to help. I use xterm.
[04:21] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: hello. It didnt work prolly because it didnt mount my filesystem. It is the livecd system that is loaded
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: then I would have lost my backup too :)
[04:22] <jenda> Can anyone help me burn CDs on my new laptop? Gnome-baker gives me the following output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20886
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: on my ext3 it should be safe :)
[04:22] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: lol.
[04:22] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: yse, I am guessing it will...
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> xikol...
[04:23] <J_P> harisund: How I do to xterm are white in black ?
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: what do you mean by that?
[04:23] <harisund> J_P: sorry :( no idea.
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: are you back on the live cd, or have you realised what you needed to do? and fixed it?
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I did the chmod etc but it didnt work. When I boot with the file cd, my home directory is diferent for example
[04:23] <J_P> anyone terminal (not gnome-terminal) can I use with white in black ?
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: Lol...
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I realized that I have toi chmod it back, but this is not my filesystem
[04:23] <haresltd> harisund: i got the modem installed, but now it says  need to create a file in /etc/udev/rules.d and i cannot create the file there
[04:23] <TheGateKeeper> phaedrus44: http://www.nubuntu.org/about.php and you could probable use it as your home distro if you wanted to
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I have to mount it ro something, im looking for it right now
[04:24] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: do this: 'sudo mount /dev/<your drive> /mnt'
[04:24] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[04:24] <harisund> haresltd: you need root permission if you want to do that.
[04:24] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: after that, you do 'sudo chmod 777 /mnt/etc'
[04:24] <harisund> richard_: I know you have asked this question like 3 times already. I think it will be hard to just send over an entire folder?
[04:24] <richard_> harisund: i can provide an email address
[04:24] <richard_> its not many files
[04:25] <haresltd> harisund: is there anyway to recover the root pw, whatever i set it to on install, it doesn't like it now :-/
[04:25] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: it is prolly the right thing now, ty
[04:25] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: :)
[04:25] <harisund> haresltd: don't do that. use sudo -i to get a root terminal, using your own password
[04:25] <kartik> !webmin
[04:25] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[04:25] <richard_> harisund: grenadian1@gmail.com
[04:25] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: rebooting and testing again
[04:25] <haresltd> ah, nice, thx
[04:25] <Captain_Fleming> Ok xiko1
[04:26] <Captain_Fleming> anyone knows the name of that good html/php/python/etc... editor?
[04:26] <qwerty2k> gedit?
[04:26] <qwerty2k> just turn on code highlighting
[04:26] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: nope :(
[04:26] <Captain_Fleming> it was more like an ide...
[04:26] <Captain_Fleming> Something with a fish...
[04:26] <qwerty2k> bluefish (i think its called that)
[04:26] <richard_> Captain_Fleming: Screem is a nice one
[04:27] <cdubya> I use gedit for php and html all the time
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> yes :)
[04:27] <harisund> richard_: I had like 6 or 7 files in there, and two are symlinks to somewhere else. I have tarred it here: http://www.cct.lsu.edu/~hsunda3/fonts.tar
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> bluefish, thnx qwerty2k :P
[04:27] <qwerty2k> np :)
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> richard_: I know screem, and I personally do not like working on it...
[04:27] <snoops> Captain_Fleming eclipse handles most of that..
[04:28] <harisund> Can somebody quickly give me a suggestion whether a Turion64 processor can handle a k8 kernel?
[04:28] <jenda> I need help with Gnome-Baker. It has some permission trouble, it seems. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20886
[04:28] <richard_> harisund: thank you so much.
[04:28] <harisund> richard_: any help? Found what you wanted?
[04:28] <harisund> haresltd: any luck? What happened?
[04:29] <richard_> harisund: yes. tnx
[04:29] <lipe> Captain_Fleming: thank you so much, man :D
[04:29] <Captain_Fleming> lipe: what?
[04:29] <Captain_Fleming> lipe: you xiko1?
[04:29] <Captain_Fleming> 's friend?
[04:29] <santa99> he guys i use xchat with Ubuntu and i have problem to read certain signs
[04:29] <lipe> Captain_Fleming: he's my brother ;D
[04:30] <Captain_Fleming> lipe: in that case, glad to have helped you out :)
[04:30] <lipe> Captain_Fleming: until next newbish thing, thanks again ;D
[04:30] <santa99> sorry false channel
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, something really annoying...
[04:31] <quiet> santa99, signs?
[04:31] <santa99> quiet, i think some UTF-8 signs
[04:31] <harisund> quiet: I am guessing santa99's problem is with encoding or something.
[04:31] <quiet> change the font?
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> I used to work on a larger resolution then this one (1024x768 is this one), but it does not want to 'allow' a higher resolution...
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> I know sure it can handle it though...
[04:32] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, you must edit your xorg.conf
[04:32] <chungaroo> how do i hide a folder? google earth installed to my home directory and i want to hide it but still retain the links
[04:32] <Captain_Fleming> Any nvidia-xconfig thingy to do?
[04:32] <haresltd> oki, i have to reboot, brb and thanks a ton harisund, i hope this works :D
[04:32] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: I'll look into it :)
[04:32] <quiet> Captain_Fleming, does xorg.xonf have the higher modes?
[04:32] <santa99> harisund, it shows me instead a square with some numbers in it
[04:32] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, any folder with a . before will make it hidden
[04:32] <pp> Hi folks, can anyone recommend a package which will log all of the terminal/console messages (say during compiling a kernel) to a text file?
[04:32] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: which files do i have to modify to make all of my shortcuts work though?
[04:33] <harisund> pp: you could redirect the standard output to one file and the errors to another file for monitoring later.
[04:33] <nso> Hi
[04:33] <erUSUL> jenda: it seems a medium error (the blank cd) not a problem with permisions... (i read the lines about setuid root but afaics they seem harmless becouse cdrecord goes on with the operation)
[04:33] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, sorry but im not at all sure, try and see if it still works after hdiing it
[04:33] <Lane> Hey you guys I know I am getting pretty need but, Here we go again....Hamachi gave me this error on "hamachi start" : 17 09:32:19.650 [   0]  [11281]  tap: connect() failed 2 (No such file or directory)
[04:33] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: nope
[04:33] <nso> Is anyone there that can help me out?
[04:34] <santa99> harisund, ideas ?
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: Modes      "1024x768" "800x600" "720x350" "640x480"
[04:34] <doug_> Can anyone help me I tried to upgrade ubuntu and now when I try to start up my computer it says operating system not found
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: can I just add my resolution I want, or what?
[04:34] <jrib> nso: just ask your question and we can find out :)
[04:34] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, add "1280x1024"
[04:34] <pp> harisund : ah, that sounds about right how do I do that? make-pkg kernel image > /log.txt would that do it?
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: thnx :)
[04:34] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, then restart X then you should be able to select it
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> k
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> I'm going to restart my entire computer by then :)
[04:34] <doug_> i put ubuntu on my wifes computer
[04:34] <harisund> pp: I am guessing make_kpkg kernel_image >output.log 2>error.log would be fine.
[04:34] <qwerty2k> make sure you add that res to the colour depth you are using though
[04:35] <erUSUL> !anyone > nso
[04:35] <pp> thanks mate!!
[04:35] <doug_> it asks to to have udates installed I installed them then restarted the computer and now it says operating system not found
[04:35] <harisund> sorry santa99 not used to that :(
[04:35] <nso> When I boot ubuntu, after the login screen it stays on the marroon colored background without doing the gnome loader and just doesnt move...is this an ati problem?
[04:36] <Lane>  Hey you guys I know I am getting pretty needy but, Here we go again....Hamachi gave me this error on "hamachi start" : 17 09:32:19.650 [   0]  [11281]  tap: connect() failed 2 (No such file or directory)
[04:36] <haresltd> okay, now i just need to know what to use as a dial for my isp, lolo
[04:36] <doug_> i tried to reinstall the OS and it won't let me partition the drives
[04:36] <jenda> erUSUL: And would that be the reason why it has never burned a CD right? Doubt it...
[04:36] <waspius> do u know a good dvd player?
[04:36] <doug_> it syas that i have no hard drives
[04:36] <pp> waspius vlc
[04:36] <santa99> harisund, what irc program du you use ?
[04:36] <qwerty2k> waspius, mplayer, vlc, totem
[04:37] <waspius> pp: i am using vlc but it does not seem to play a dvd movie
[04:37] <qwerty2k> waspius, you will need the decss to play copyprotected dvd's though
[04:37] <qwerty2k> !dvd
[04:37] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:37] <harisund> santa99: irssi
[04:37] <qwerty2k> you need the libdvdcss
[04:37] <waspius> qwerty2k: where will i get them from?
[04:37] <erUSUL> jenda: you can figure it out running cdrecord from comand line with sudo (or running gnomebaker with gksudo) this will give cdrecord all the perms
[04:37] <cdubya> santa99, just curious, but what language support do you have selected?
[04:38] <santa99> cdubya, german english
[04:38] <santa99> harisund, you are writing from the terminal with it ?
[04:38] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: any ideas?
[04:38] <MrRio> Hello :)
[04:39] <Intangir> how do you see what the latest updates you installed are?
[04:39] <Spitfireleet> how do i start X?
[04:39] <nso> When I boot ubuntu, after the login screen it stays on the marroon colored background without doing the gnome loader and just doesnt move...is this an ati problem?
[04:39] <Intangir> i just did some updates now all my fonts look like crap
[04:39] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, when you tried to launch it after renaming the folder did you use commandline or shortcut?
[04:39] <qwerty2k> Spitfireleet, startx
[04:39] <harisund> santa99: yes. And I use UTF-8 when I connect from Putty.
[04:39] <RalleAb> does ubuntu have the dir opt/kde3/
[04:39] <Amwyll> Hello, everybody!
[04:39] <cdubya> RalleAb, I suspect only if you install kubuntu-desktop
[04:40] <harisund> besides, I doubt anything gets installed in /opt , unless you do it yourself.
[04:40] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: no, i used the gnome panel menu
[04:40] <santa99> harisund, I think I'm also using UTF-8
[04:40] <HEFO> HI
[04:40] <santa99> harisund, do you know how i can change the locale variable
[04:40] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, you will need to edit the pannel shortcut to update to the new location, try launchin it in a terminal (just too check) first before you edit anything though
[04:41] <mike-e> !easysource
[04:41] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:41] <HEFO> i have some problems installing ubuntu in my lap top
[04:41] <nso> I cant get past the gnome loader
[04:41] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: ok, i'll be right back with that..
[04:41] <DJAdmiral> HEFO: what kind of problems?
[04:41] <Amwyll> Can someone give me a hint as to how do I ADD a NIC to a working system?
[04:41] <doug_> ok anybody
[04:42] <jrib> nso: you get to the login screen, enter your username and password, and gnome tries to load but fails, is this accurate?  Do you get any errors?
[04:42] <HEFO> i have a laptop with external cdrom...when ubuntu loads (better say try) ...it get stucked ant automatic turns off the loader
[04:42] <kashual> :0)
[04:42] <doug_> i installed the updates for ybuntu on my wifes computer and now when I restarted it it says operating system nt found
[04:42] <doug_> any help?
[04:42] <pp> if anyone here is on an apple powerbook I would really appreciate a look at your kernel .config file :-)
[04:42] <HEFO> and says something about a box..
[04:42] <nso> jrib: Nope thats correct
[04:42] <jenda> erUSUL: In fact... running it as root worked.
[04:42] <mike-e> Amwyll : put it in the machine and boot it up?
[04:42] <kashual> doug check your bootloader config
[04:43] <doug_> i can't even get into the computer now
[04:43] <jrib> nso: ok, are you ona  different computer now?
[04:43] <jenda> erUSUL: And... I just noticed you suggested it :)
[04:43] <DJAdmiral> doug_: something probably went wrong with GRUB
[04:43] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: um, i don't know how to launch from the terminal.
[04:43] <doug_> yes
[04:43] <Amwyll> mike-e: Right. :) What about drivers?
[04:43] <qwerty2k> doug_, load up the livecd and reinstall grub
[04:43] <kashual> doug use the install cd
[04:43] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: how do i edit the panel?
[04:43] <pp> doug_: go into openfirmware
[04:43] <nso> jrib: nuhuh I'm on the live cd
[04:43] <DJAdmiral> doug_: what qwerty2k said
[04:43] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, i think its just 'googleearth' in terminal
[04:43] <doug_> i tried the install cd and it won't let me past partition
[04:43] <cdubya> heh, doug_, it's gonna blow.....too many suggestions.....:
[04:43] <cdubya> :)
[04:43] <jenda> So... how can I make sure cdrecord always has all permissions?
[04:44] <doug_> haha
[04:44] <jrib> nso: ok are you comfortable checking the permissions of ~/.Xauthority and ~/.ICEauthority on your system, or do you want me to walk you through that?
[04:44] <kashual> doug type at boot command expert
[04:44] <qwerty2k> doug_,  dont reinstall, simply install grub (the bootloader) back into the mbr
[04:44] <doug_> the computer acts like i have nop hard drives
[04:44] <kashual> and boot up..... later it comes an dialog for config grub
[04:44] <doug_> with the live cd?
[04:44] <erUSUL> jenda: i do not know. it should have all perms. hang on minute
[04:44] <nso> jrib: umm a walk-through would be nice lol
[04:44] <cdubya> doug_, yep, try what they're suggesting
[04:45] <Spitfireleet> "user not authorized to use x server, aborting"
[04:45] <doug_> ok , so use the live cd to install the bootloader
[04:45] <doug_> ?
[04:45] <qwerty2k> yes
[04:45] <doug_> ok brb
[04:45] <qwerty2k> boot into livecd open up a terminal then install the bootloader
[04:45] <qwerty2k> !grub

[04:45] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: ok i went to the menu editor and changed the location, but now the icon is missing. i think it lost the link to the icon in the process
[04:45] <kashual> Spifireleet outsch
[04:45] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, does it load?
[04:46] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: yeah, it loads from the panel shortcut
[04:46] <erUSUL> jenda: during install you misconfigured cdrecord. try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure cdrecord' and answer yes
[04:46] <qwerty2k> chungaroo,  and its hidden in your home?
[04:46] <kashual> Spifireleet need to chmod user and reconfig x server

[04:51] <mistraal> I mean not there
[04:51] <mistraal> no window borders
[04:51] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, the icon you can get back by editing the shortcut and selecting the icon (after browsing to where the googleearth icon is kept (i dont know where))
[04:51] <jrib> nso: ok open up a terminal and type:  cd /media/name_of_partition             what is the name by the way?
[04:52] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, not sure about the other thing, sorry
[04:52] <Amwyll> Er... Folks! If I add a new NIC to Ubuntu box (different make from existing one), will it auto-detect and automatically install proper drivers?
[04:52] <snoops> right.. are you loading cgwd or gnome-window-decorator mistraal?
[04:52] <waspius> and how do i open the sources list from konsole so i can edit it?
[04:52] <snoops> because compiz replaces metacity..
[04:52] <mistraal> gnome-window-decorator
[04:52] <qwerty2k> waspius,  sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:52] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: i am sure the cd is not broken. had problems installing the live cd before so i downloaded the alternate; cd reader is fine as suse enterprise installed fine (dont like the distro though)
[04:53] <qwerty2k> waspius, if you're using kde though it will be kwrite or kate instead of gedit
[04:53] <qwerty2k> :D
[04:53] <waspius> qwerty2k: oh ok..
[04:53] <waspius> thanl
[04:53] <erUSUL> beesandflowers:  in which stage of the install does it happen?

[04:54] <BlueEagle> beesandflowers: did you run the option to check cd integrity in the boot menu?
[04:54] <kashual> it's an 802.11a-g 2.4GHZ wireless cardbus adapter
[04:54] <BlueEagle> beesandflowers: It has occured before that downlaoded .iso files are corrupt.
[04:54] <doug_> ok ubuntu has started form the live cd
[04:54] <doug_> how do I fix the bootloader
[04:54] <mistraal> snoops: I followed the instructions from here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=216480
[04:54] <santa99> erUSUL, maybe I'm too dumb for this but after  sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf it still shows me the locale i have before the  sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf
[04:54] <nso> jrib: hdc1
[04:54] <snoops> okay mistraal is compiz and xgl running?
[04:54] <qwerty2k> grub > doug_
[04:55] <qwerty2k> !grub > doug_
[04:55] <doug_> keep in mind i know nothing about linux
[04:55] <beesandflowers> right after it says 'loading kernel' i get some lines (about a page or two); i doutbt the iso's were defective as they installed fine on the machine i am working on right now
[04:55] <beesandflowers> also, they were burned with k3b and the checksums were correct
[04:55] <doug_> huh?
[04:55] <mistraal> snoops:  how would I know?
[04:55] <jrib> nso: alright so you can just do:  cd /media/hdc1/home/name_of_your_user
[04:55] <beesandflowers> i used different cd's as well
[04:55] <erUSUL> santa99: yu may need to log off and log in again
[04:55] <kashual> how can i get ubuntu supports my D-Link AirPlusG+ DWL-G650+
[04:55] <jrib> nso: after that, tell me the ouput of 'ls -l .Xauthority'
[04:55] <kashual> it's an 802.11a-g 2.4GHZ wireless cardbus adapter
[04:55] <BlueEagle> beesandflowers: Then it seems to be a hardware issue. Did you try vga safe mode?
[04:56] <qwerty2k> !repeat > kashual
[04:56] <santa99> erUSUL, ok thx took me long to find something you helped me in only one answer well done
[04:56] <kashual> ^^

[04:56] <doug_> ok explain how i do this like I am a 2 year old
[04:56] <beesandflowers> yes, i did try vga=771 (not sure if that was the number) but then i got a big black emptyness on my screen and no sounds of working cdrom drive
[04:56] <waspius> so do i add from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages one of the reps so i can get the decs for playing dvds?
[04:56] <doug_> lol
[04:56] <VVP> Hi!
[04:56] <erUSUL> beesandflowers: try booting with acpi=off (is a laptop, isn't it?)
[04:56] <BlueEagle> kashual: who you talking to? It helps us greatly if you prefix the person that is helping you with their nick. Makes it highlight in most IRC clients.
[04:56] <kashual> sry wouldn't flood or spamm
[04:57] <qwerty2k> !grub
[04:57] <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
[04:57] <snoops> mistraal you can check in terminal with ps -A | grep Xgl and then if something shows up, then ps -A | grep compiz
[04:57] <VVP> I can't understand my IRC... Fack!
[04:57] <qwerty2k> doug_, use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:57] <snoops> mistraal it's case sensitive
[04:57] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: it is a laptop. i will try the acpi=off; do i need to use any other options going with that? like it seems there is a problem finding my harddisk or something...?
[04:57] <mistraal> I'll have to switch session again
[04:57] <erUSUL> waspius: add the two lines you see in the page (choose one of the mirrors) to your sources.list
[04:57] <doug_> huh
[04:57] <kashual> BlueEagle asked all in the room and hope that any answers and can help me
[04:57] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: thnx, now the resolution works like a charm!
[04:57] <erUSUL> !bootoptions
[04:57] <ubotu> For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions
[04:57] <doug_> you said something about grub
[04:57] <erUSUL> !bootoptions > beesandflowers
[04:58] <Captain_Fleming> Now, yet another question...
[04:58] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, no problem :)
[04:58] <mistraal> brb
[04:58] <doug_> do I reinstall the grub loader by typing grub
[04:58] <doug_> ?
[04:58] <qwerty2k> doug_, follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:58] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: thanks for that! btw acpi=off results in the same kernel panic, i got the laptop next to me
[04:58] <Captain_Fleming> IF, I wanted to delete everything (folder, subfolders, subfiles) from a certain folder, command line...
[04:58] <RichW> all this talk of grub is making me hungry.
[04:58] <doug_> but i didn't install windows
[04:58] <qwerty2k> doug_, and do the second one where it says it will over write the windows bootlaoder
[04:58] <doug_> in fact i removed the seperate HD that had windows on it
[04:59] <qwerty2k> doug_, it will do what you want regarless of whether you instaleld windows or not
[04:59] <doug_> know i only have ubuntu
[04:59] <erUSUL> beesandflowers: you will have to do a bit of trial an error. also a good idea is to search in google with somethin like 'install ubuntu <laptop model>' to find if someone has succeed and documented the process
[04:59] <rulus> hi, anyone knows how I can change a folder's icon with a command line command?
[04:59] <snoops> doug_ what I think happened was the boot loader is installed on the wrong hdd - the windows one..when you removed it, you removed the ability to boot from ubuntu..
[04:59] <VVP> kikmklm
[04:59] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, im not 100% but i htink it would be rm -R /home/user/foldertoremove
[04:59] <quiet> can anyone using vmware-server give me a hand?
[05:00] <snoops> so by installing grub from that guide, hopefully it'll install into the correct drive
[05:00] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: i have searched the two linux on laptop sites i found, and the only options for my model were the vga, noapic and noalpic which does not yield any results
[05:00] <doug_> no when I had both HD in it said it could'nt find an operating system
[05:00] <kashual> doug for extrem reason just install windows new it will overwrite all and doin an preinstall of ubuntu after that
[05:00] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, I'll test that one out (or at least look into it qwerty2k)
[05:00] <Amwyll> If I add a new NIC to Ubuntu box (different make from existing one), will it auto-detect and automatically install proper drivers? Anyone?
[05:00] <VVP> Why nobody speak with mi?
[05:00] <kashual> how can i get ubuntu supports my D-Link AirPlusG+ DWL-G650+
[05:00] <kashual> it's an 802.11a-g 2.4GHZ wireless cardbus adapter
[05:00] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: indeed, thnx :)
[05:00] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: i learned to google before asking stupid questions. unfortunately the bootoptions page on ubuntu.org does not really show that many options
[05:00] <CheetahMk2> Amwyll: there's a quick way to check
[05:00] <synic> kashual: ndiswrapper.
[05:00] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, no problem :)
[05:00] <snoops> kashual check the forums?
[05:01] <CheetahMk2> type in the chipset, and see if ubuntuy supports it. Even if it doesn't there's probably a way to get it working
[05:01] <doug_> ok i read that but now that i only have 1 HD in the compter what do I type to identify that?
[05:01] <erUSUL> VVP: this is a support channel for ubuntu if you have a problem please ask. if you want to chit/chat go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:01] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: or better: none i hadn't tried before. i was wondering if there was something about my ide controller that needed an option. like ide=nodma (if that does exist) or something (it kernel panicked with that line, in any case)
[05:01] <chungaroo> how do i restart my panel to see new changes?
[05:01] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, easiest way is to log out then log back in i think
[05:02] <qwerty2k> :D
[05:02] <kashual> synic allready installed but by plugin the hw it will shown as texas instruments card and a wrong hw type too
[05:02] <erUSUL> beesandflowers: what is your laptop model. ide chipset?
[05:02] <doug_> i don't understand that language
[05:02] <Amwyll> CheetahMk2 : It's a Realtek garbage, so I'm sure it's supported GENERALLY...
[05:02] <synic> kashual: doesn't matter what it shows as.  Install it like the instructions on the ndiswrapper say and it should work.
[05:02] <Amwyll> The question is how do I make sure the drivers are on the box and working?
[05:02] <nso> jrib: i dont think it mounted right
[05:03] <erUSUL> Amwyll: it should at boot time
[05:03] <nso> jrib: can you give me the command to mount it exactly how you wanted to
[05:03] <kashual> lol
[05:03] <beesandflowers> ok, the laptop is a HP nx6215 and the chipset for the ide is ... i don't know
[05:03] <theBeno> HiTech69, does anyone know how to make a boot floppy for Ubuntu?

[05:04] <erUSUL> !repeat > theBeno
[05:04] <qwerty2k> erUSUL, beat me to it ;)
[05:04] <jrib> nso: if you prefer, it's probably easier to just boot up normally and hit ctrl-alt-f1 to get a terminal, run the commands you need to, and then ctrl-alt-f7 to return to X
[05:04] <beesandflowers> theBeno: you cannot boot ubuntu from a floppy anymore, i think that is the case for all kernels above 2.4
[05:04] <mistraal> snoops: Xgl yes compiz no
[05:04] <kashual> and the all other features which they have
[05:04] <erUSUL> theBeno: look at what ubotu said. you are looking for a grub floppie
[05:04] <beesandflowers> theBeno: you cannot boot the linux kernel above 2.4 from a floppy is what i meant to say
[05:04] <snoops> mistraal well it's good xgl is going :)
[05:05] <nso> jrib: only if you give me the commands first
[05:05] <snoops> want to try running it manually? opening a command line and doing
[05:05] <theBeno> erUSUL, It changed Hi, to a name, so I said it again cause I didn't know why it did that.
[05:05] <pollypocket> ok I found a simply demonstration example, http://www.ababasoft.com/music/music01.html if I go to this site with ubuntu-firefox  there is no sound. all music players are off. is this an alsa problem or a firefox problem ??
[05:05] <kashual> =:0) precompile the win driver and implement it on the ubunut core ^^
[05:06] <Pensacola> I formatted my external hd as fat32 but now I don't have write acces, what can I do?
[05:06] <theBeno> Ok thanks, because there is something wrong with my pc, and I need to boot from floppy.  It's a new lappy and my brother did something to it.
[05:06] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: thank you for your help. i will continue tickling google to get me some helpful results. i appreciate your time

[05:06] <nso> lol @ tickling google
[05:06] <snoops> then mistraal compiz --replace gconf &
[05:06] <jrib> nso: of course:  what you are going to do is type without the quotes, 'ls -l /home/your_username/.Xauthority', and the third and fourth columns should be the same as your user.  If it says 'root' instead, then that is the problem.  If it does say root, just delete the file with 'sudo rm /home/your_username/.Xauthority'.  Do the same for .ICEauthority
[05:07] <doug_> ok i am at the place where it says grug>
[05:07] <doug_> what do I type now
[05:07] <Captain_Fleming> I feel good... I just managed to get eagle on my box ^-^

[05:14] <FirstStrike> i just installed it about 15 minutes ago and it worked. using the guide on the forum; didn't work.
[05:14] <snoops> FirstStrike the guide mistraal posted looks fine, xgl running no problem.. but gnome-window-decorator throwing a fit when trying to start

[05:16] <m0> I want to install JAVA SDK 5.0
[05:17] <AshDragonScale> got a couple questions... I have a Wireless Network between my windows pc, my winlaptop and ubuntu. this is working fine however I cannot get the internet (dialup) to work at the same time as the wireless network. I have to disable the WLAN to go anywhere on the interent, any sugestions? and what is the best dvd player for ubuntu?
[05:17] <erUSUL> m0: chmod +x *.bin && sudo ./*.bin
[05:17] <Polkadots> This is going to seem trivial: In windows I could press the middle mouse button (the wheel) and then scroll like that but just moving the mouse. Is there a way to do yhat in Linux?
[05:17] <santa99> I'm getting crazy
[05:17] <doug_> yeah but i don't know what to type at this point
[05:18] <doug_> i have never worked with linux
[05:18] <doug_> so it looks strange
[05:18] <snoops> mistraal I would try cgwd.. basically it's gnome-window-decorator with theming
[05:18] <doug_> i don't know what i call my HD
[05:18] <cdubya> doug_, what are you trying to do?
[05:18] <FirstStrike> AshDragonScale: well as far as dvd player, i'd recommend xine
[05:18] <doug_> i don't understand the text
[05:19] <doug_> I am at the place where the screen is black and itr says grub<
[05:19] <doug_> trying to reinstall the bootloader
[05:19] <AshDragonScale> FirstStrike:  ok i got ogle.... not very pretty but if it does the job...
[05:19] <snoops> mistraal and you should just be able to apt-get install it.. but instead of running gnome-window-decorator, replace it with cgwd
[05:19] <godzirra> is there not a placeto download live cds?

[05:20] <godzirra> thank you erUSUL
[05:20] <erUSUL> godzirra: no problem
[05:20] <FirstStrike> xine has some nice skins. you can preview, download and install them from inside xine. and it's got many, many configuration options for optimal performance.
[05:20] <UU> ??
[05:20] <cdubya> doug_, did the system ever work right?
[05:20] <doug_> yes
[05:21] <snoops> 64bit edition mistraal?
[05:21] <cdubya> doug_, you might try sudo grub-install --recheck
[05:21] <doug_> i did an update and it said no operating system after restarting

[05:21] <Aphex_Twin> do you know a tool to make quick graphical logos?

I already tried showkeys and setkeycodes, but I dont get the scancodes of theese keys with showkey
[05:21] <mistraal> its not on any of my repos
[05:21] <tengil> FirstStrike: for future reference it was add notification area to panel
[05:21] <tengil> :)
[05:21] <cdubya> doug_, you booted the LiveCD
[05:21] <FirstStrike> ok :P
[05:21] <erUSUL> FirstStrike: ;) yes but you have to be a "Master of the Known Universe" to tweak them all
[05:21] <doug_> yes
[05:22] <UU> 
[05:22] <FirstStrike> lol erUSUL
[05:22] <doug_> then i did cntr, alt fi
[05:22] <doug_> then I typed grub
[05:22] <doug_> now what
[05:22] <doug_> ?
[05:22] <doug_> it says grub.
[05:22] <doug_> waiting for instructions
[05:23] <cdubya> !grub
[05:23] <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

[05:24] <santa99> couldn't someone say me whats the default font under system->preferences->font
[05:24] <mistraal> snoops: I'm reading that its supposedly not needed ... that I should use gconf-editor
[05:25] <erUSUL> doug_: is somthing like 'root (hdn,m)' and then 'setup (hdk)' where n is the number of the disk and m of the partition you have /boot/ or/and / . k is the number of the disk you want grub installed
[05:26] <three> does anyone remember where the How-To guide for instlling nvidia gfx drivers is?
[05:26] <cdubya> erUSUL, he left, but I'm glad you chimed in, because I've not gone that route.....just booted the LiveCD and opened a terminal, then used grub-install device_name or grub-install --recheck
[05:27] <h4ch3r> hello
[05:27] <snoops> mistraal yeah.. you shouldn't need gset-compiz at all

[05:30] <h4ch3r> ??
[05:30] <jrib> h4ch3r: that's not really possible without a reinstall afaik.  But maybe we can fix what is not working for you in breezy?
[05:30] <erUSUL> h4ch3r: downgrading is not supported by apt
[05:31] <tengil> where can i change colors of the time and color of highlighted and not highlighted applications in the panels?
[05:31] <m0> erUSUL: where do you usually install java sdk ?/

[05:31] <h4ch3r> erUSUL, back version breezy for warty if possible "apt-get"??
[05:31] <erUSUL> m0: i intalled it under /opt/
[05:32] <Linux-Mania> Can I use LILO loader with ubuntu GRUB is waiting on booting time
[05:32] <m0> erUSUL: what is so special about opt?
[05:32] <erUSUL> m0: is a place to put OPTional software in unix systems
[05:33] <UU> ?
[05:33] <m0> erUSUL: so can I just mv it to opt ?
[05:33] <jeong> yay it works.
[05:33] <h4ch3r> ohhh shit
[05:33] <chaddy> Linux-Mania: why not just edit grub to reduce the wait?
[05:33] <h4ch3r> and now?
[05:33] <h4ch3r> I go back windows :'(
[05:34] <jeong> ..don't do it!
[05:34] <jeong> :D
[05:34] <erUSUL> m0: move it?!? when the installer asks you whare to put the files type /opt/
[05:34] <m0> mv: cannot move `jdk1.5.0_08/' to `/opt/jdk1.5.0_08': Permission denied
[05:34] <m0> but I already installed it in /home/m0/jdk1.5.0_0
[05:34] <erUSUL> m0: use sudo

[05:39] <Jurgeni> erUSUL: no, just "ping: sendmsg: operation not permitted"

[05:42] <ubuntu> erUSUL:
[05:42] <ubuntu> hi
[05:43] <itsdaveperdue> Heya folks, anyone now of the problem using Turions with Ubuntu?  I'm trying to install on my laptop (Turion 64 2.0GHz) but the performance is horrible.
[05:43] <dpupp> im switching from breezy to dapper. I have a xorg.conf which has a tri-monitor setup... im wanting to pass the xorg.conf over to dapper, is it ok to just copy and replace? or are the xorg.conf from dapper and breezy different?
[05:44] <itsdaveperdue> they're a little different I believe, you may want to just copy your settings over manually
[05:44] <erUSUL> dpupp: during upgrade you will be asked about what to do with the conf file just answer to keep it
[05:44] <cortez> hello. does anyone know how I can generate a new locale in dapper?  ``dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales isn't working for me
[05:44] <ubuntu> ubuntu is nice
[05:44] <croach_> hi
[05:45] <jeong> ubuntu IS nice ;)
[05:45] <itsdaveperdue> word
[05:45] <dpupp> erusul, thanks. but im already in dapper on a clean swtich.... so might just have to copy over settings manually.
[05:45] <croach_> i cant get my sounds to work
[05:45] <itsdaveperdue> but unfortunately my Turion 64 doesn't think so...
[05:45] <erUSUL> cortez: System>Admin>language support
[05:45] <cortez> my LANGUAGE environment variable is set to "en_US:en_GB:en" and believe it or not, the absence of an en_GB locale is causing 'dd' to segfault.
[05:45] <ubuntu> croach_:  got alsa installed?
[05:45] <cortez> erUSUL: I meant non-graphically.
[05:45] <erUSUL> dpupp: yes you can copy it
[05:45] <croach_> using nforce2 and optical cable.... spdif?
[05:45] <croach_> yes
[05:45] <cortez> besides, there is no "English (United Kingdom)" there, I checked.

[05:46] <exs> Hello. I notice there is an ideas wiki. I really like this, but It would be even better if we could get a "definite implementation" section, where the most wanted ideas/features will be (for certain) made into the new release (edgy eft in this case at the moment)
[05:46] <dpupp> i have a bad feeling im about to muck something up ^_^ wEEeeeE!!!
[05:46] <ubuntu> FirstStrike: hi dude, wb
[05:46] <croach_> yes
[05:46] <cdubya> itsdaveperdue, I've heard of problems, but mostly with folks trying to install the 64-bit version.
[05:46] <FirstStrike> hi
[05:46] <Jurgeni> erUSUL: had to save that to usb-stick first and move to other machine where network works :)
[05:46] <ubuntu> croach_: run the aumix command
[05:46] <Sttuttter> hi, i can print from anything but adobe reader...what should the command to print to a cups printer be?
[05:46] <ubuntu> see if nothing is muted
[05:46] <Jurgeni> erUSUL: eth1 is interface that is connected to network
[05:47] <dpupp> thanks everyone. i'll be back in a few min after i break something else. ^_^
[05:47] <jeong> lol
[05:47] <croach_> aumix ..... "command not found"
[05:47] <ubuntu> dpupp:  good luck
[05:47] <FirstStrike> i've got an AMD 64 processor but i've heard nothing but bad things about the 64 bit version.
[05:47] <ubuntu> croach_: install it
[05:47] <itsdaveperdue> cdubya: I've tried the 386 version also, they both seem to crap on me, heh.  I've been keeping an eye on the forums and I can't find a solution.
[05:47] <FirstStrike> i'm running 386 just fine on an AMD 64 3700+
[05:47] <itsdaveperdue> FirstStrike: It's regarding a turion 64.  It's running super slow
[05:47] <m0> can we set up "path" as in windows?/
[05:47] <FirstStrike> scary
[05:47] <catadoxas> Im kinda despared I cant seem to get the drivers for my ati x600 card set up properly... my flgxinfo allways tells me that mesa3d is running opengl
[05:48] <cdubya> itsdaveperdue, ouch
[05:48] <catadoxas> ive even checked the forums
[05:48] <chaddy> FirstStrike: I'm running the 64bit, it's fine, honest
[05:48] <catadoxas> and it seems there is a known bug
[05:48] <catadoxas> but the procedure there didnt help
[05:48] <catadoxas> any ideas?
[05:48] <itsdaveperdue> I've run other 64-bit distros ok,  but not Ubuntu, blah
[05:48] <FirstStrike> yea, but i use wine for gaming and such.
[05:48] <catadoxas> but waiting for the next driver
[05:48] <croach_> nope nothings muted
[05:48] <ubuntu> FirstStrike:  with wine isint it slow?
[05:49] <FirstStrike> nope
[05:49] <UU> \bing
[05:49] <itsdaveperdue> do you guys think that disabling apic it might help?
[05:49] <chaddy> you can do a 32bit chroot for wine, haven't got round to it myself, yet
[05:49] <manmadha> harisund, he.. u know the FM for south( i mean andhra....)

[05:49] <seppe> hi, has anyone tried processing (see processing.org) on ubuntu?
[05:49] <jeong> i tried running steam through wine yesterday but got some kind of error

[05:50] <manmadha> he any body from india
[05:50] <manmadha> ?
[05:50] <ubuntu> croach_:  u installed aummix?
[05:50] <dmglouis> im indian
[05:50] <croach_> yes
[05:50] <jeong> with wine, you don't have to have copies of the exes or files or anything on an ext3 partition right?  You can just run them from the Windows partition orn o?
[05:50] <jeong> *or no
[05:50] <dmglouis> not lived there for a long time
[05:50] <ubuntu> make sure alsa and it other serivces r runing
[05:50] <manmadha> dmglouis, u know how to get the FM online?
[05:50] <FirstStrike> jeong: yes, you can run them from the windows partition too
[05:50] <manmadha> dmglouis, for indian music?
[05:50] <itsdaveperdue> I'm going to try i386 again.
[05:50] <croach_> how do i check that?
[05:51] <dmglouis> manmadha:what language?
[05:51] <manmadha> dmglouis, telugu
[05:51] <ubuntu> use rcconf to chk for which service are starting on bootup
[05:51] <dmglouis> manmadha:try raaga.com
[05:51] <ubuntu> make sure alsa is there
[05:51] <manmadha> dmglouis, i want the FM services
[05:51] <jeong> First, do you run CS under wine too then?
[05:51] <catadoxas> any ideas for a kernel for dapper drake? I m about to compile mine. shall I just get the vanilla sources?
[05:51] <dmglouis> manmadha:whats fm services?
[05:52] <ubuntu> dmglouis:  fm radio?
[05:52] <Mistraal> ok that screwed up. I edited gdm.conf-config now it won't load x properly. Hangs the machine completely. No way of switching to tty1 or anything. How can I change that gdm.conf?
[05:52] <manmadha> dmglouis, radio
[05:52] <dmglouis> manmadha:im not sure

[05:58] <ubuntu> ue bluetooth to connect
[05:59] <linopil> any idea for scanner working for root user? what permissions ?
[05:59] <Ivanowitch> can't, neither my computer or my phone got it... which sucks, i know :(
[05:59] <Rookie-> linopil - perm should be 655
[05:59] <gan|y|med>  how is the ipw2200 (wlan) firmware implemented in ubuntu? i have my own kernel, but there is no hotplug dir to put the firmware into. but the standard kernel works with wlan.
[05:59] <ubuntu> is ird module installed?
[06:00] <croach_> i can get the sound working if i dont use the optical input.... but then i cant use my 5.1 system
[06:00] <linopil> 10x Rookie-
[06:00] <Ivanowitch> err... i think so... it seems that i've got the software i need, just a matter of configuring it...
[06:00] <m0> I am having trouble with something. How do I add a shortcut (eclipse) to my Acpplications button ?
[06:01] <m0> or in the Panel
[06:01] <nopcode> i've been trying to upgrade from hoary to breezy to dapper... but the server fails to reboot afterwards... tried it two times now :/
[06:01] <ubuntu> Ivanowitch:  install service, turn infra on ur phone and the services of infra on ur pc , then try connecting
[06:01] <itsdaveperdue> m0: right-click, add to panel
[06:01] <itsdaveperdue> m0: then application launcher, or custom launcher
[06:01] <ubuntu> hi dvae
[06:02] <ubuntu> dave*
[06:02] <itsdaveperdue> hiya Ubuntu
[06:02] <m0> Thank you itsdaveperdue
[06:02] <itsdaveperdue> no prob bob
[06:02] <itsdaveperdue> or, m0
[06:03] <m0> itsdaveperdue: but how do I use the icon?
[06:03] <m0> eclipse's icon
[06:03] <m0> i can't browse to the eclipse executable since tis not an icon
[06:03] <itsdaveperdue> You want to add a shortcut to the panel or the desktop?
[06:03] <m0> panel
[06:03] <m0> the icon is a question mark
[06:04] <ubuntu> brb
[06:04] <itsdaveperdue> is it not is the application menu?
[06:04] <m0> itsdaveperdue: no it isn't It is on the panel
[06:04] <gan|y|med> how is wlan firmware implemented in ubuntu? udev?
[06:04] <ubuntu> back
[06:05] <itsdaveperdue> m0: do you know how to start it from the console?
[06:05] <m0> itsdaveperdue: yea by just typing eclipse
[06:05] <Chaks> is there a core ubuntu iso for download?
[06:05] <bburns> How do I make an application start when ubuntu starts?
[06:05] <bburns> for instance, syslog-ng
[06:06] <itsdaveperdue> m0: So click add to panel, then select Custom Launcher, type eclipse in the command, and select an icon, you should be good
[06:06] <ubuntu> add it to init.d
[06:06] <bburns> ubuntu, how would I do that?
[06:06] <Ng> bburns: the syslog-ng package should include a script that gets dropped into /etc/init.d/ and then a symlink to that in /etc/rc2.d/ will make it start at boot
[06:06] <m0> itsdaveperdue: yea but when I select an ICON and I goto eclipse directoy, I see nothing present inorder to choose
[06:07] <bburns> Ng, do you run syslog-ng
[06:07] <Ng> nope
[06:07] <bburns> Ng, how would I know which scripts are what
[06:07] <m0> itsdaveperdue: i only see custom default icons from pixmaps
[06:07] <ubuntu> i have syslog running here
[06:07] <bburns> ubuntu, syslog-ng ?
[06:07] <Ng> ubuntu: syslog != syslog-ng
[06:07] <ubuntu> oh ok
[06:07] <itsdaveperdue> m0: that means you have to find the icon one the internet or select a different one
[06:07] <ubuntu> my error
[06:07] <ubuntu> sorry
[06:07] <m0> itsdaveperdue: when I press the browse button, wont allow me to use same icon the executable is using
[06:07] <Ng> bburns: the syslog-ng package includes /etc/init.d/syslog-ng
[06:08] <Captain_Fleming> Any1 here knows good cd-r burning software?
[06:08] <ubuntu> Captain_Fleming:  k3b
[06:08] <itsdaveperdue> m0: sorry m0, I'm kind of a newbie, so there might be another way to get the icon.
[06:08] <bburns> Ng, how do I know which script is what
[06:08] <m0> itsdaveperdue:  its okay
[06:08] <bburns> Ng, I see syslog-ng.init, is that it?
[06:08] <Ng> bburns: what do you mean by "which script"?
[06:08] <Ng> bburns: how did you install syslog-ng?
[06:08] <m0> hey guys so is there a way to get the ICON from an Executable?
[06:08] <bburns> ./configure
[06:08] <bburns> make && make install
[06:08] <Captain_Fleming> ubuntu: Uhm, can he also burn mp3 cd's.
[06:08] <Ng> bburns: why not use the package that's already available in ubuntu? :)
[06:09] <ubuntu> Captain_Fleming: yes
[06:09] <bburns> Ng, I used the 2.x stable
[06:09] <linopil> command line command for adding common user to root group  < temporarily >
[06:09] <Ng> bburns: then I would assume that the .init script is the one you need to put into /etc/init.d and symlink to /etc/rc2.d/
[06:09] <Ng> bburns: I would suggest reading their install docs though :)
[06:09] <Stroganoff> no
[06:09] <Ng> linopil: sudo adduser someusername admin   (assuming by "root group" you mean they get sudo access)
[06:10] <bburns> Ng, there are no install docs, trust me, ive looked -- I see the init script but no symlink
[06:10] <linopil> 10x Ng
[06:10] <Stroganoff> Ng, use update-rc.d instead
[06:10] <Ng> bburns: you have to make the symlink: sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/syslog-ng /etc/rc2.d/S10syslog-ng
[06:10] <Stroganoff> man update-rc.d
[06:10] <bburns> Ng, huh
[06:11] <gwilma> Does anyone know how to force the removal of a package? I've tried installing jedit from a .deb, but now get errors like : "dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute old post-removal script: No such file or directory"
[06:11] <bburns> Ng, do I need to make a folder in init.d for syslog-ng?
[06:11] <Stroganoff> bburns, ~# man update-rc.d
[06:11] <BeepAU> hey everyone, i'm trying to get vmware running using a windows xp iso, i used this guide - http://www.vdomck.org/blog/2006/06/15/running-windows-under-ubuntu/ , but am not quite sure where to put the iso. can anyone help me out?
[06:11] <phlax> hi - ive got a dapper install from a livecd - when booting the loopback is not properly configed - interfaces file seems to be ok - any ideas?
[06:12] <Ng> bburns: no, there don't tend to be folders in init.d. you might want to use update-rc.d as Stroganoff suggests, to make the symlink for you
[06:12] <bburns> Ng, but should i just cp /path/to/dir/syslog-ng.init /etc/init.d/ first?
[06:12] <Stroganoff> no
[06:12] <Stroganoff> http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Update-rc.d
[06:13] <ubuntu> nite guys
[06:13] <ubuntu> god bless
[06:13] <bburns> k, thanks ng and stroganoff
[06:13] <ubuntu> ng tc man
[06:13] <lastnode> God Bless ubotu
[06:13] <lastnode> ubuntu even :)
[06:13] <ubuntu> lastnode: ty same to u
[06:14] <nightattack> how can I make opera my default browser?
[06:14] <bburns> Stoganoff: so.. update-rc.d /path/to/syslog-ng.init defaults
[06:15] <linopil> admin question
[06:15] <Shish> I just switched graphics cards, and now X won't start -- how do I know what driver to use?
[06:15] <linopil> can a group be a member user of other group ?
[06:15] <bburns> Stroganoff: so.. update-rc.d /path/to/syslog-ng.init defaults
[06:15] <lordhelmet> use a very basic xorg.conf and try the vesa driver (or nv or ati for nvidia or ati cards)
[06:16] <Ng> linopil: no
[06:16] <Jamminpotato> hey
[06:16] <nightattack> how can I make opera my default browser?
[06:16] <bburns> nightattack > !repeat
[06:16] <Ng> Shish: what's your new graphics card? "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" will let you reconfigure X and select the driver you need
[06:16] <`m0> Hi, I am wondering how can I scan for available wireless locations?
[06:16] <PuGz> hey guys. i just got my usb tv card working with ubuntu! hooray!
[06:17] <Jamminpotato> i have a really n00b question, involving how to see my windows partition on my hdd from a ubuntu live cd? can anyone help?
[06:17] <cdubya> nightattack, System > Preferences > Preferred Applications
[06:17] <A-L-P-H-A> Does Edgy Eft use X.org 7.1?
[06:17] <bburns> Ng: so.. update-rc.d /path/to/syslog-ng.init defaults
[06:17] <nightattack> cdubya, thanks :)
[06:17] <cdubya> np
[06:18] <lmosher> If you run the script "script  <filename>" how do I get <filename> from within the script?
[06:18] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: check out this web page: http://distrowatch.com/ubuntu
[06:18] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: you want to add a line to /etc/fstab like this: /dev/hda2       /media/hda2     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1 , then mount -a
[06:18] <`m0> I am wondering how can I scan for available wireless locations?
[06:18] <Ng> `m0: either in the properties of the wireless interface in System->Administration->Networking, or with "iwlist scan" in a terminal
[06:18] <Jamminpotato> thanks chaddy, i'll try that
[06:18] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: that will keep listing the latest packages ubuntu has
[06:18] <quiet> if anyone interested in a custom icon for the Gnome Main Menu: http://quiet.unixcorps.org
[06:18] <lordhelmet> lmosher: assuming it's bash, it should be the variable $1 if i remember right
[06:18] <Ng> bburns: I think so, but I don't use update-rc.d, so I'm not sure
[06:18] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, thanks!
[06:18] <PuGz> `m0: sudo iwlist eth0 scan
[06:18] <bburns> Ng: what do you use
[06:18] <`m0> Ng: thankyou
[06:18] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: np
[06:19] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, Now I gotta bookmark that site.  Very handy
[06:19] <Jamminpotato> one other question is there a bash command to change screen resolution?
[06:19] <`m0> PuGz: Thanks
[06:19] <Ng> quiet: I just make the symlink by hand
[06:19] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: the rest of distrowatch.com is too!
[06:19] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: have a look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:19] <quiet> Ng, to set the custom icon you mean?
[06:20] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, thanks 1680x1050 was not one of the live cd default options =/
[06:20] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, I'm actually looking for a way to search for a distro that uses x.org 7.1
[06:20] <Ng> quiet: no, I was talking to the wrong person, sorry ;)
[06:20] <quiet> ok
[06:20] <Ng> bburns: I just make the symlink by hand
[06:20] <bburns> Ng, It is looking for the init file from the /etc/init.d  dir
[06:20] <Ng> quiet: the logo image file is kinda big though ;)
[06:20] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: ahh... in steps distrowatch.com again! http://distrowatch.com/search.php
[06:20] <chaddy> bah /me has to make do with 1440x900 :-(
[06:20] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, really want to fix my three monitor setup that I can't get working with ubuntu.  Used to work in breezy, but dies in dapper drake
[06:20] <bburns> Ng, does that mean that I need to cp /path/to/syslog-ng.init /etc/init.d first?
[06:21] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: use the search on that page to search for distros using xorg 7.1
[06:21] <Ng> bburns: like I said, I'm really not familiar with update-rc.d. To do it quickly by hand, sudo cp /path/to/syslog-ng.init /etc/init.d/syslog-ng ; sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/syslog-ng /etc/rc2.d/S10syslog-ng
[06:21] <`m0> I see Wirless connection (eth1 is active) Ethernet connection (eth0 is active) Modem Connection (ppp not configured)
[06:21] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, i can't find fstab in etc, maybe because its a live cd?
[06:21] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, thanks... it was in the packages serarches off that page.
[06:21] <`m0> But when I do sudo iwlist eth1 scan  it says
[06:22] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: these distros: Ark, Fedora 6, Frugalware, gentoo, gobolinux, kateos, mandriva
[06:22] <`m0> Interface doesn't support scannign
[06:22] <hoot> hey guys ... the other day i found this "addition" to ubuntu ... something like "ubuntu easy" which was suppoesed to install real player & wmv player and nvidia drivers ... anyone know what it's called and where can i find it
[06:22] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: i have personally tried and like these: frugalware, gentoo and kateos... but in my opinion ubuntu is the best distro... its a shame u cant get it working
[06:22] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: if it's not already there you should be safe to "touch /etc/fstab" then edit it
[06:22] <PuGz> hoot: easyubuntu
[06:22] <`m0> Any ideas why I get "interface doesn't support scanning)
[06:22] <chaddy> hoot: easyubuntu
[06:23] <`m0> if in System->Administration->Networking it says Wirless connection is eth1
[06:23] <hoot> hahha... nice
[06:23] <`m0> sudo iwlist eth1 scan
[06:23] <PuGz> hoot: easyubuntu.freecontrib.org
[06:23] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, it says permission denied, when i try to touch it, whats the command to change permissions (sorry i'm really a linux n00b)
[06:23] <chaddy> sudo, Jamminpotato
[06:23] <augustin> hello
[06:23] <Jamminpotato> thanks forgot that chaddy
[06:23] <chaddy> sudo some_command
[06:23] <nso> jrib: you there?
[06:23] <chaddy> np
[06:23] <augustin> someone here to help me with a BIG partition problem please?
[06:24] <`m0> now when I do sudo iwlist eth1 scan, it says no scan results
[06:24] <A-L-P-H-A> PuGz, maybe today it'll change (fingers crossed)
[06:24] <danieleboyo> can anyone help me with smb?
[06:24] <jrib> nso: yes, but gery very frustrated with dell on the phone at the moment.  What's up?
[06:24] <PuGz> hoot: you may also want to look at this: http://www.getautomatix.com/
[06:24] <augustin> as in: on a dual-boot system, WinXP install program can see my various partitions (NTFS, Ext3, FAT32, etc), but GParted can only see an unpartitioned disk?
[06:24] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: perhaps!
[06:24] <bburns> Ng, I did both, yours and update-rc.d to make sure it worked, was that bad?
[06:24] <Linuturk_eats> is automatix realy all that? I have a hard time trusting it
[06:25] <bur[n] er> augustin: try qtparted?
[06:25] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, what dose touch do, the command ran but nothign really happened
[06:25] <hoot> PuGz: thanx man
[06:25] <Linuturk_eats> I get the feeling it's going to hose my system
[06:25] <itsdaveperdue> m0: make sure the wireless card is turned on with any hardware switch you may have, also make sure the correct modules are loaded (not sure how, but google has lots of info)
[06:25] <chaddy> try ls /etc/ you should now see the new file, Jamminpotato
[06:25] <PuGz> `m0: you could try removing the module, stopping all network controlling programs, and then ifconfig eth1 up and then the scan?
[06:25] <Jamminpotato> k
[06:25] <danieleboyo> my file sharing properties are correct, but my computer is not detected in the network
[06:25] <jrib> nso: I'm gonna go grab lunch, but just ask the channel or I should be back in about half an hour
[06:25] <danieleboyo> any ideas?
[06:25] <Ivanowitch> ok, so now, i've got my infrared working... turned out that it was a bios configuration thing.. :S... can anyone help me connect to my phone? it's a nokia 6610i, and I've got gnokii, but it tells me, that it would break my phone if it connected... any solutions?
[06:25] <nso> jrib: I did what you said but then I realied I didnt know what I was doiing...so I just reinstalled ubuntu and set up my video and monitor drivers for ati and after the restart it did the same exact thing
[06:25] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[06:26] <`m0> PuGz: how do I remove the module?
[06:26] <PuGz> A-L-P-H-A: that also tells you what packages are in what version of ubuntu
[06:26] <PuGz> `m0: sudo modprobe -rv MODULE_NAME
[06:26] <ProN00b> is ubuntu going to be using some strange "gnome web browser" in its next release ?
[06:26] <Ng> no
[06:26] <Ng> firefox will still be the default
[06:26] <itsdaveperdue> Epiphany, if you want
[06:26] <ProN00b> ok
[06:26] <A-L-P-H-A> I'm having a problem with having multiple video cards, using the DRI ati drivers. e shoot:
[06:26] <A-L-P-H-A> I removed the PCI card, to attempt to just use the AGP. No problems, "dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" made X work with the AGP card.
[06:26] <A-L-P-H-A> However, when I tried to merge the new xorg.conf with the old, it dies. I believe that this is an issue with the drivers, causing the lock up.
[06:26] <A-L-P-H-A> So, I can get the card to work with either the PCI or the AGP, but not both.
[06:26] <`m0> PuGz: what would the module name be?
[06:26] <A-L-P-H-A> sorry (bad paste)
[06:26] <ProN00b> firefox default = good
[06:26] <danieleboyo> anyone help with samba?
[06:27] <Jamminpotato> if a file is read only the command to make it not read only is?
[06:27] <A-L-P-H-A> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189651 <-- is the post to describe my problem.
[06:27] <augustin> bur[n] er, thanks
[06:27] <rockets40> hi everyone
[06:27] <cdubya> firefox default = not good for some
[06:27] <PuGz> `m0: perhaps you shouldn't bother with that... whats your problem?
[06:27] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: chmod 777 filename
[06:27] <Ng> cdubya: such as?
[06:27] <cdubya> Ng, won't use it.
[06:27] <`m0> PuGz: I cannot scan for wireless networks
[06:27] <rockets40> anybody knows how to boot a powerpc g3 form cd?
[06:27] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, 777?
[06:27] <Ng> cdubya: I mean who isn't it good for?
[06:27] <PuGz> `m0: are you currently connected to one?
[06:27] <itsdaveperdue> So really, no one has any information on making a Turion 64 work with Ubuntu?  Either with i386 or x86_64?
[06:27] <`m0> PuGz: it says No Scan Results for eth1
[06:27] <cdubya> Ng, me
[06:28] <`m0> PuGz: how do I check if I am connected
[06:28] <rockets40> i want to install ubuntu on my g3 mac
[06:28] <sethk> rockets40, if it is like the g4 you press a key during boot up.  I forget the key, but check apple's site
[06:28] <cdubya> danielboyo, what's the issue
[06:28] <chaddy> permissions are a bit complicated at first, Jamminpotato
[06:28] <`m0> PuGz: it says interface eth1 is active
[06:28] <jonass> how can i increase mic volume?
[06:28] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, ok
[06:28] <Ng> cdubya: you have the choice to use something else, I was more looking for reasons why it's not good
[06:28] <PuGz> `m0: ifconfig <- does that list an ip under the eth1 section?
[06:28] <cdubya> Ng, hangs terribly after a short time of use
[06:28] <rockets40> sethk: it's g3
[06:28] <Ng> cdubya: have you filed a bug report?
[06:28] <danieleboyo> cdubya, my linux box is detected in my windows network, but i cant access anything on it. it says to enter a username and password, but i have not set any
[06:28] <rockets40> sethk: i tried all keys
[06:29] <`m0> PuGz: no
[06:29] <`m0> PuGz: it doesn't place IP
[06:29] <sethk> rockets40, yes, I know.  check the docs.  It isn't like a pc, you have to hod the thing down for a long time
[06:29] <jonass> how can i increase mic volume?
[06:29] <cdubya> Ng, it was told me that it's due to flash/java, but nothing that I could do would resolve the issue.....
[06:29] <PuGz> `m0: what does iwconfig say about the essid for eth1?
[06:29] <jonass> ok i have the answer ,)
[06:29] <chaddy> jonass: alsamixer
[06:29] <sethk> rockets40, apple's web site has the info, so don't guess, just look it up.
[06:29] <cdubya> danielboyo, do you have a shared folder setup?
[06:29] <danieleboyo> yup
[06:30] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, i can't save file chagnes cause it's a live cd =//....
[06:30] <rockets40> sethk: thanx
[06:30] <Ng> cdubya: does it work without any plugins and with a fresh profile?
[06:30] <`m0> PuGz: IT takes forever to Activate Interface
[06:30] <PuGz> `m0: what do you mean?
[06:30] <cdubya> Ng, I don't think so, but I think I tried that too.
[06:30] <duane_> hello
[06:30] <cdubya> danielboyo, and the machine you're trying to connect from, it's a legit user on the linux box/
[06:31] <`m0> PuGz: Hmm when I do ifconfig all I see is lo (loopback)
[06:31] <duane_> I installed some gtk-engine-* debs
[06:31] <chaddy> hmm, /me didn't really consider that aspect, Jamminpotato
[06:31] <duane_> how can i use them?
[06:31] <PuGz> `m0: ooohh... type this: sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[06:31] <PuGz> `m0: then do: sudo iwlist eth1 scan
[06:31] <danieleboyo> cdubya, ilegit user? i am trying to view a folder on my linux box from my windows computer
[06:31] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, if i were to copy the contents of the cd to an external hdd and set the bios to boot to usb would that work?
[06:31] <`m0> PuGz: It says SIOCSIFFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[06:32] <PuGz> `m0: after which command?
[06:32] <`m0> PuGz: sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[06:32] <cdubya> danielboyo, a legitimate user
[06:32] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: there is a way of using usb with the live CD, my best advice is go to a bookshop and look in "Ubuntu Hacks" from O'reilly, take your camera
[06:32] <chaddy> or buy it
[06:32] <cdubya> danielboyo, and I understood that....;)
[06:32] <Jamminpotato> buying from o'reilly is never bad
[06:32] <Linuturk_eats> is there a way to get Evolution 2.8 on Dapper w/o hosing my system?
[06:33] <Jamminpotato> well thanks chaddy for all your help
[06:33] <Guest142> moin moin
[06:33] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: I can guarantee it's not a purchase you will regret ;-)
[06:33] <chaddy> np
[06:33] <danieleboyo> cdubya, i know what legit stands for, does that mean i have to set up another suer account on my ubuntu for the windows machine?
[06:33] <Chaks> well, is there a ubuntu core iso for download?
[06:33] <`m0> PuGz: when I do ifconfig eth1 up, it says SIOCSIFFFLAGS: Permission denied
[06:33] <Chaks> any help regarding this?
[06:33] <Guest142>  only english here?
[06:33] <cdubya> danielboyo, yep
[06:33] <PuGz> `m0: did you use sudo?
[06:33] <PuGz> sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[06:33] <`m0> PuGz: when I do sudo ifconfig eth1 up, it says No such file or directory
[06:34] <danieleboyo> cdubya, aha!
[06:34] <cdubya> danielboyo, then get into a terminal and type the command smbpasswd -a user_you_just_created
[06:34] <PuGz> `m0: try: sudo /sbin/ifconfig eth1 up
[06:34] <snoops> Chaks that'd be ubuntu-desktop i386
[06:34] <Rookie-> `m0 - hows your etho then ?
[06:34] <Guest142> i have installed ubuntu ... but when i restart my computer no grub is coming but windows starts as normal
[06:34] <Rookie-> eth0
[06:34] <Chaks> snoops, thanks, is that just the core and X ?
[06:34] <Chaks> so that i can apt-get and install my stuffs?
[06:35] <PuGz> `m0: then do: sudo /sbin/iwlist eth1 scan
[06:35] <Chaks> and remaster?
[06:35] <`m0> PuGz: Same problem No such file or directory
[06:35] <cdubya> danielboyo, you should get asked then to type in a SMB password....type it in, then when it takes you back to the prompt, try to connect to the linux box again
[06:35] <Chaks> thats my plan
[06:35] <`m0> Rookie: what do  you mean
[06:35] <snoops> Chaks ah right.. no that includes gnome, with a base set of applications..
[06:35] <PuGz> `m0: try ifconfig -a... does that report that eth1 exists?
[06:35] <chaddy> Chaks: you would probably be better with Xubuntu or server if you are remastering
[06:35] <snoops> just like kubuntu includes kde and a base set of applications
[06:35] <`m0> PuGz: It only happens when I add "up"
[06:36] <`m0>  PuGz: sudo ifconfig eth1 works
[06:36] <Rookie-> try down first, then up
[06:36] <PuGz> Rookie-: good point!
[06:36] <snoops> the server version doesn't have any X, but that doesn't stop you from installing it
[06:36] <`m0> Rookie-: Down works...
[06:36] <`m0> Rookie-: up doesnt :)
[06:36] <PuGz> :)
[06:36] <abhinay> where the apt-get log will be stored ?
[06:36] <`m0> No such file or directory
[06:36] <PuGz> `m0: i got no idea
[06:37] <billybennett> Does anyone know why I suddently cannot burn any cd / dvd data discs?  I already had both k3b and Gnomebaker.. but neither one works
[06:37] <Rookie-> What happen if you just type ifconfig ?
[06:37] <Chaks> thanks chaddy, will check into server
[06:37] <chaddy> :-)
[06:37] <`m0> hmm
[06:37] <`m0> Rookie-: when I type ifconfig I see lo only
[06:37] <`m0> Rookie-: For loopback
[06:38] <chaddy> what about iwconfig?
[06:38] <sethk> `m0 try  ifconfig -a
[06:38] <Rookie-> oki, and what do you see if you type ifconfig eth0 ?
[06:38] <tyler_d> anyone know a macromedia flash alternative that works?
[06:38] <sethk> `m0, with the -a it will show unconfigured interfaces as well as configured interfaces
[06:38] <snoops> tyler_d to play or build?
[06:38] <waspius> anyone know how to setup auto run?
[06:38] <chaddy> tyler_d: wine windows_firefox.exe
[06:38] <tyler_d> snoops: just to view
[06:38] <billybennett> Can someone help me fix my cd/dvd drive please? :)
[06:38] <`m0> sethk: When I try iwconfig I see  I see lo eth0 sit0 and they say no wireless extensions, but I see eth1 where it says something
[06:39] <`m0> Rookie-: It shows me the eth0
[06:39] <sethk> m
[06:39] <danieleboyo> cdubya
[06:39] <itsdaveperdue> WOO!! Turion, boot with noapic nolapic
[06:39] <ookami> ahhh!i mucked up my xorg file copying over my old breezy xorg over to my dapper.... i thought i'd back up the xorg to a usb disk, but now i cant read that from a terminal.
[06:39] <Rookie-> oki - with ip and netmask ?
[06:39] <sethk> `m0, the sti0 is ipv6, so ignore that part
[06:39] <ProN00b> billybennett, rebooted already ?
[06:39] <ProN00b> billybennett, did any config changes since it doesn't work anymore ?
[06:39] <cdubya> danieleboyo, yes
[06:39] <sethk> `m0, looks like your wireless is eth1 then
[06:39] <Gorlist> hello
[06:39] <`m0> sethk: Yes my wireless is eth1
[06:39] <billybennett> ProN00b, yep multiple times... I cannot recall.  The only thing I can think of is installing vmware
[06:40] <`m0> sethk: I compared it with the macadress and it is correct
[06:40] <cdubya> itsdaveperdue, it work better?
[06:40] <Gorlist> Do I need to renstall Ubuntu if im changing hardware? (motherboard, processor)
[06:40] <itsdaveperdue> ookami: you can't read the usbstick from a terminal?
[06:40] <danieleboyo> cdubya, its not working. i typed the passsword and the username when i double clicked on the linux computer from my workgroup computers in windows and it didnt work
[06:40] <ProN00b> billybennett, is vmware running ?
[06:40] <Gorlist> or will it boot up fine?
[06:40] <billybennett> ProN00b, nope havent touched it since
[06:40] <ookami> itasda* no, i do: cd /media/usbdisk (ls) and nothing lists.
[06:40] <cdubya> danieleboyo, are you registered?
[06:40] <ProN00b> billybennett, maybe you should uninstall it, since i think it has background services
[06:40] <Pensacola> what's wrong with this line? the drive won't mount on bootup
[06:40] <itsdaveperdue> ookami: have you mounted it?
[06:40] <Pensacola> ./dev/sdc2	/media/Films	vfat	iocharset=utf8,umask=000	0	0
[06:40] <danieleboyo> cdubya, registered?
[06:41] <snoops> tyler_d there's gnash
[06:41] <ookami> itsdaveperdue, no i have not.
[06:41] <cdubya> danieleboyo, with freenode
[06:41] <itsdaveperdue> mount /dev/sda1     ,usually
[06:41] <Pensacola> without the . in front of course
[06:41] <itsdaveperdue> oh oh
[06:41] <snoops> but it's still very alpha.. so umm
[06:41] <itsdaveperdue> i'm sorry
[06:41] <`m0> sethk: What do I do now?
[06:41] <snoops> playing stuff could be quite difficult
[06:41] <ProN00b> billybennett, did you try booting from some other os/distro so you can make sure it isn't the fault of your drive ?
[06:41] <danieleboyo> cdubya, i dont think so...?
[06:41] <cdubya> danieleboyo, ok
[06:41] <danieleboyo> cdubya, how come?
[06:41] <cdubya> danieleboyo, I was going to have you PM me.....
[06:41] <itsdaveperdue> ookami:  make sure the is a folder named /mount/usbstick or whatever, then type:  mount /dev/sda1 /mount/usbstick
[06:41] <billybennett> ProN00b, I know the drive is reading correctly but anytime I make a cd/dvd before it even starts I get an input/output error
[06:41] <DanaG> Why does GCC not use both CPU cores when compiling?
[06:41] <itsdaveperdue> make sure you're root or use sudo
[06:42] <ookami> ah! i managed to recover it with a backup i found in the x11 folder ^_^ thanks to automatix.
[06:42] <Sapaki> hi
[06:42] <ProN00b> billybennett, wana paste that error ?
[06:42] <itsdaveperdue> heh, sweet, I'm a new guy
[06:42] <ookami> thanks itsdaveperdue, i'll take note of that command for future reference in case.
[06:42] <billybennett> ProN00b, sure.... let me make up a dvd real quick
[06:42] <cdubya> danieleboyo, ok, let's start from the beginning.....
[06:42] <Sapaki> I would like to know how I can make my ubuntu live cd detect my wireless adaptor
[06:43] <danieleboyo> sure, but i just IM'ed you
[06:43] <Jamminpotato> is there an official ubuntu live cd?  only saw gnoppix when i googled
[06:43] <cdubya> danieleboyo, didn't get it.....you're not registered
[06:43] <Salgat> yes
[06:43] <itsdaveperdue> ookami: when you're in X and gnome is running and such, there's an automount daemon that's running so you don't have to use that, but it's good to know how things are actually done.
[06:43] <danieleboyo> cdubya, ok, i see
[06:43] <itsdaveperdue> I'm out, peace.
[06:43] <`m0> sethk: Any ideas why I can't connect ?
[06:43] <danieleboyo> cdubya, ok, thanks alot, here we go
[06:43] <Jamminpotato> Salgat, where can i find it?
[06:43] <Salgat> http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[06:43] <Salgat> The normal CD also acts as a LiveCD
[06:44] <sethk> `m0, I didn't hear the entire conversation.  I'll look back a bit.
[06:44] <Jamminpotato> oh
[06:44] <cdubya> danieleboyo, /msg nickserv register <your-password>
[06:44] <Jamminpotato> dang
[06:44] <Jamminpotato> thanks
[06:44] <babo> What's the best online music directory where I can store my songs ? ... and stream them if I'd like ?
[06:44] <Salgat> so when your ready you just install
[06:44] <ookami> thank you.
[06:44] <`m0> is ESSID a number?
[06:44] <itsdaveperdue> m0: check your encryption, make sure you have the right libraries installed, also, Google and the forums are your friend.  Adios.
[06:44] <Gorlist> If I change my motherboard & processor will Ubuntu be able to boot up? or does it require a reinstall ?
[06:44] <babo> Oh, ya - it has to be free ... and allow me to burn cd's and upload them ...
[06:44] <`m0> in my router I see this:
[06:44] <`m0> SSID
[06:44] <`m0> 	Mansour
[06:44] <`m0> Channel
[06:44] <`m0> 	6
[06:44] <`m0> dsorry
[06:45] <Jamminpotato> Salgat, wasnt it seperate in 4.10
[06:45] <chaddy> Mansour, `m0
[06:45] <sethk> `m0, that looks normal.
[06:45] <sethk> `m0, possible a wep key or the other type of key?
[06:45] <cdubya> danieleboyo, you register yet?
[06:45] <danieleboyo> cdubya, yup!
[06:45] <cdubya> danieleboyo, k, hang on a sec
[06:45] <IceOwl> eek.
[06:45] <`m0> sethk: No, I removed WEP key, all I placed was mac address
[06:45] <IceOwl> that's a lot of people.
[06:45] <sethk> `m0, I'm thinking that maybe you need the key
[06:45] <`m0> seth: I filtered by mac address (when laptop was windows xp)
[06:46] <chaddy> lo IceOwl
[06:46] <IceOwl> hi
[06:46] <billybennett> ProN00b, http://pastebin.ca/136355
[06:46] <sethk> `m0, you connect in xp without a key, or with a key?
[06:46] <`m0> sethk: withougt
[06:46] <Salgat> When I installed the recent 6.06 I just downloaded and burned the ISO for Ubuntu and then it gave me the option to install in LiveCD
[06:46] <sethk> `m0, ok.   hmm....
[06:46] <`m0> sethk: In iwconfig, I see Access Point : Invalid
[06:47] <billybennett> ProN00b, I'm trying to backup OLD OLD stuff I had on cdr's
[06:47] <ProN00b> billybennett, "Incorrectly encoded string (3 Floppy (A).lnk) encountered."
[06:47] <ProN00b> thats the error
[06:47] <`m0> seth: Access Point: Invalid under eth1
[06:47] <ProN00b> deal with it ?
[06:47] <IceOwl> I'm wanting to try xubunut, but when I boot the CD, it doesn't get past "Mounting root filesystem" ..it just hangs there.
[06:47] <IceOwl> anyone have any idea what might cause that?
[06:48] <IceOwl> xubuntu, even :P
[06:48] <ProN00b> billybennett, see if you can turn joilet off
[06:48] <ProN00b> or rename the file that it mentions
[06:48] <sethk> `m0, but you are it isn't a key issue.
[06:48] <billybennett> ProN00b, okay
[06:48] <chaddy> IceOwl: how long are you leaving it? on old hardware it can take a long time
[06:48] <`m0> sethk: I am sure
[06:49] <IceOwl> chaddy: like, 10 mins or longer. This computer is only about three years old.
[06:49] <Hrughy> hi to all. Anyone have a wacom tablet running ok?
[06:49] <IceOwl> it shouldn't take that long
[06:49] <`m0> sethk: In my router, it says Security: Disabled
[06:49] <`m0> sethk: :)
[06:49] <sethk> `m0, ok.
[06:49] <chaddy> k, you could try the server ISO, IceOwl, then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:50] <IceOwl> hmm..
[06:50] <ookami> how do i check if my nvidia drivers are installed?
[06:50] <sethk> IceOwl, you can try disabling dma for ide drives
[06:50] <chaddy> the server is not a live CD it's just a text based installer
[06:50] <Ng> ookami: glxinfo | grep vendor   - all three lines should say nvidia
[06:50] <gwilma> Anyone know how to force the removal of a package if dpkg gives an error message?
[06:50] <phargle> oh noes you can't actually install something without a graphical installer can you? (snicker)
[06:51] <Salgat> :O
[06:51] <chaddy> apt-get remove --purge package_name, gwilma
[06:51] <IceOwl> sethk: how do I do that?
[06:51] <`m0> sethk: Manybe my Wirless Channel doesn't match ?
[06:51] <sethk> IceOwl, read the help at the boot prompt
[06:51] <DanaG> aah, now I'm compiling with both cores.
[06:51] <sethk> `m0, that's conceivable, yes
[06:51] <tyler_d> got flash working just so the room knows :)
[06:52] <`m0> sethk: but where do I change the channel to be 6
[06:52] <IceOwl> ok :P
[06:52] <chaddy> how did you do it, tyler_d
[06:52] <DanaG> I had to do CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 (or 2) on the command line in front of make-kpkg.
[06:52] <Jamminpotato> who knows the easiest way to get all the data off of a hdd that is my windows patition, but wont boot. i need to copy the partition to an external hdd i have , whats the easiest way?
[06:52] <sethk> `m0, somewhere in iwconfig, try the iwconfig man page
[06:52] <gwilma> At the moment it's saying "dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-removal script: No such file or directory"
[06:52] <workin> I need some help really quick
[06:52] <DanaG> Either boot BartPE or move both drives to a different system.
[06:52] <tyler_d> changed the repository ubuntu 6.06 lts to have non free(multiverse) and community maintained checked......
[06:52] <Jamminpotato> DanaG, what is bartpe?
[06:53] <DanaG> It's like a Windows LiveCD.
[06:53] <tyler_d> chaddy: then ran apt get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:53] <workin> It's just one simple question.. I doubt I'll need any more help
[06:53] <DanaG> However, I haven't made one before.
[06:53] <chaddy> tyler_d: you'll still have problems with flash 8 websites, but flash 9 is due out soon-ish
[06:53] <Salgat> Ask your question workin
[06:53] <Jamminpotato> DanaG, cause i tried using a gnoppix cd (im in it right now) but i cant get it to mount my drive because i cant edit fstab
[06:53] <tyler_d> chaddy: whats a good one so I can test... I checked a few that I know and it worked...
[06:54] <DanaG> you can mkdir something and then manually mount.
[06:54] <chaddy> couldn't say off the top of my head, tyler_d, you'll come across one soon enough... google hansofoundation in fact
[06:54] <DanaG> Is your external drive NTFS?
[06:54] <Jamminpotato> DanaG, to the best of my knoledge yes
[06:54] <workin> I'm am installing xubuntu on my laptop. I'm using the alternate CD. It's asking about "disk space to partition:" I know what that is but I don't know which one to choose.  "erase entire disk" "erase entire disk and use LVM" "manually edit partition table" I didn't have an OS when I installed this. I formatted my harddrive. It's all blank.
[06:54] <Jamminpotato> the win drive is fat 32
[06:55] <ookami> do i have to reboot completely for changes to the xorg to take place?
[06:55] <workin> I only want xubuntu on it.
[06:55] <sethk> workin, erase entire disk is a good option
[06:55] <Ng> workin: then "erase entire disk"
[06:55] <chaddy> workin: what sethk says
[06:55] <sethk> workin, lvm isn't necessary for a machine with only one drive
[06:55] <workin> alright... thank you. I wasn't sure. and no one is ever at the xubuntu chat.
[06:56] <sethk> it isn't necessary for a machine with more than one drive, necessarily, but it makes no sense on a box with one drive
[06:56] <Jamminpotato> DanaG, the live cd im on wont let me write to the external hdd, is that becasue its nfts
[06:56] <ookami> whaaa! beautiful ^_^ back into tri-monitor set up. ^_^
[06:56] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: good chance
[06:56] <Jamminpotato> damn
[06:56] <Intelligitimate> I got a question...are there are small, cheap computers running linux? You know, like those 5-10 dollar toys you see in gas stations and crap?
[06:56] <Hrughy> My wacom tablet "Graphire BT" works like a mouse, the cursor position don't coincide with the stylus position. I try to add "Absolute" in xorg.conf but don't work.
[06:56] <DanaG> Yeah, NTFS is not writable (at least not safely) under Linux.
[06:56] <phaedrus44> anyone tried out nUbuntu ?   its pretty cool..
[06:56] <gutterfix> hi guys, need some help
[06:56] <tyler_d> chaddy... they are all working
[06:56] <DanaG> You can use captive-ntfs to safely write, but it is damn slow.
[06:57] <chaddy> tyler_d: lucky you ;-)
[06:57] <tyler_d> :)
[06:57] <Jamminpotato> this hdd move would be easier if i had my extra system around
[06:57] <gutterfix> i'm trying to compile the rezlook-engine
[06:57] <Jamminpotato> =/
[06:57] <gutterfix> and i somehow got an error compiling libxml2
[06:57] <billybennett> ProN00b, thanks you have no idea how stupid I feel :)
[06:57] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: fat32 is more portable, for the future
[06:57] <ookami> bbl.
[06:57] <stray77> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009 for writing to ntfs partitions
[06:58] <ProN00b> well, at least it works, billybennett
[06:58] <GreatBriton> hi, i need help (running dapper on amd64), i'm following this howto: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133427 to install xgl and compiz. i've got to part 4, but am now stuck
[06:58] <DanaG> Is it possible to move an NTFS partition?
[06:58] <rsk> GreatBriton: please stay in here, but also beware there is a channel called #ubuntu-xgl :)
[06:58] <GreatBriton> oh
[06:58] <GreatBriton> didn't know of that
[06:58] <DanaG> I want to move a partition by 1GB to the (right in gparted)
[06:58] <GreatBriton> rsk: thanks :D
[06:59] <tyler_d> DanaG: you can copy the information from it? is that what you mean?
[06:59] <GreatBriton> rsk: i'll try there
[06:59] <rsk> great
[06:59] <DanaG> No, I need to nondestructively move the beginning of the partition.
[06:59] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, DanaG, the partition im moving is fat32, but the drive i was going to move it to is ntfs =/
[06:59] <DanaG> Daaaang.
[06:59] <wonea> anyone have any ideas why keyboard access has a delay of 0.5 seconds between keys?
[06:59] <tyler_d> DanaG: are you running windows? on it?
[07:00] <DanaG> I have a partition I want to expand by 1 GB, but there's another partition in the way.
[07:00] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: is the ntfs partition blank?
[07:00] <tyler_d> DanaG: the only thing I know... extremely dirty is windows partition magic... but it fubars your tables
[07:00] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, yes
[07:00] <gutterfix> has anyone encountered this error before compiling libxml2?
[07:00] <gutterfix> make[2] : *** [SAX.lo]  Error 1

[07:00] <`m0> how do I assign an address to an interface for my eth1
[07:01] <Wanderer> ati fglrx is a pain in the ass on my laptop
[07:01] <chaddy> qtparted and reformat to fat32 would be a good option, then, Jamminpotato
[07:01] <flasher> what syntax do i use to convert an .avi file to mpeg-4?
[07:01] <flasher> using mencoder?
[07:01] <DanaG> PartitionMagic refuses to touch my drive.
[07:01] <DanaG> It calls it "BAD"
[07:01] <lost> hi all
[07:01] <Jamminpotato> chaddy, when im done is linux able to format it back to an ntfs? im borrowing it
[07:01] <Wanderer> Danag: run badblocks on it?
[07:01] <DanaG> but it's obviously not, because Windows and Linux both see it just fine.
[07:01] <Jessehk> I just updated, I gnome-terminal doesn't start. I get an error that "vte_terminal_set_opacity" is an undefined symbol.
[07:01] <DanaG> In fact, I boot Vista from it.
[07:01] <tyler_d> DanaG: that may be b/c linux set it up... vista(pukes)
[07:01] <Jessehk> s/I/and
[07:02] <DanaG> I have XP, then Vista, then extended partition with Linux.
[07:02] <chaddy> Jamminpotato: you might want Hiren's boot disk to return it to ntfs
[07:02] <`m0> sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[07:02] <Jamminpotato> =/
[07:02] <`m0> temporaliy failure resolving security.ubuntu.com :P
[07:02] <Wanderer> Danag: bad cluster?
[07:02] <corpxicle> why doesnt my amarok work ?
[07:02] <DanaG> How do I check?
[07:02] <chaddy> `m0: /etc/hosts add a line ipaddress hostname
[07:02] <DanaG> The thing is, PartitionMagic calls the whole DRIVE bad, not just any one partition.
[07:03] <Wanderer> Danag: run "badblocks" on the drive
[07:03] <`m0> chaddy: But i am using wireless
[07:03] <tyler_d> DanaG: thats b/c its windows...
[07:04] <nopcode> how do i upgrade from hoary to dapper so that it will actually boot?
[07:04] <nopcode> i've tried doing it two times using the howto
[07:04] <ziottt> did u never try to install ape plugin on k3b?
[07:04] <nopcode> but my server didnt boot afterwards
[07:04] <lost> could anyone here help me with a problem I'm having with ubuntu server?
[07:04] <tyler_d> wow
[07:04] <lost> I'm kind of new at this and don't know much what I'm doing..
[07:05] <chaddy> perhaps, lost, best thing is just to ask your question
[07:05] <kmasta> my wireless connection won't activate, i've turned off all the wep encryption but my wireless still won't work
[07:05] <lost> I'm trying to install fluxbox
[07:05] <lost> and I'm wondering what other things I need to get on here
[07:05] <DanaG> argh, my DHCP is still broken.
[07:05] <lost> that it doesn't come with
[07:05] <chaddy> apt-get install xubuntu-desktop fluxbox lost
[07:05] <DanaG> Even on my WIRED connection.
[07:05] <trappist> lost: `sudo aptitude install fluxbox` will give you everything you need to run fluxbox
[07:06] <chaddy> then apt-get remove xfce
[07:06] <lost> alright thanks
[07:06] <lost> I did actually
[07:06] <lost> do some thing where I compiled it myself
[07:06] <lost> but I couldn't get it to work
[07:06] <trappist> whenever possible, your best bet is to stick with the package manager
[07:07] <`m0> where do I get the list of apt-get installs from the net
[07:07] <FlyingSquirrel31> ok, I just installed mysql-server from apt-get and when I go to set the admin password I get:mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[07:07] <lost> alright
[07:07] <chaddy> lost: apt-cache search fluxbox will show you some other handy fluxbox related packages
[07:07] <lost> thanks
[07:07] <Mistraal> how do you apply compiz themes? I have imported it into cwgd themer but nothing happerns
[07:07] <chaddy> Mistraal: #ubuntu-xgl

[07:09] <chaddy> lo t-st
[07:09] <kmasta> i'm having troubles with my wireless connection, it says its activated, but when i go to see if it works, i can't go on the interner, then i come back and i see its not activated, whats going on?
[07:09] <FlyingSquirrel31> how do I set the admin passwd for mysqld?
[07:09] <chaddy> kmasta: look at the properties, you need to choose an essid and possibly give a wep key
[07:10] <kmasta> no, i turned wep off and i have the correct essid
[07:10] <kikkertje> Hi, could someone give a little help, for some reason, i can't update, or install, because he can't connect to te resources
[07:10] <kmasta> i looked on my wireless router to make sure
[07:10] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, for the mysql root account?
[07:10] <ralph1231> kikker you going thru a router?
[07:10] <ProN00b> ralph1231, does this look like the mepis channel ?
[07:11] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: yeah, I did sudo mysqladmin -u root password <my pass> but I got:
[07:11] <DanaG> ProN00b: join #mepis or #mepislovers
[07:11] <tyler_d> how do I make a printer a "network Printer" and install that on a windows machine?
[07:11] <ralph1231> mepis is ubuntu distro thought someone might know
[07:11] <kikkertje> jep ralph1231 , i'm using a speedtouch router, but i coulld access them just a couple of hours ago
[07:11] <DanaG> I switched back from Mepis to Ubuntu because I like Gnome better.
[07:12] <chaddy> mepis is a debian distro
[07:12] <FlyingSquirrel31> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed ... error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'
[07:12] <kmasta> chaddy, i already made sure i turned wep off and have the exact essid that i need
[07:12] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, uh-oh.... can you use the stock mysql client? mysql -uroot
[07:12] <ralph1231> kikker try to set up using static routing
[07:12] <fdsd> hi guys, How does ubuntu know the names I gave my external drives in Macosx?  when it mounts the hfs volumes it knows the name, how do I get this information via the command line?
[07:13] <ralph1231> and do static dns too
[07:13] <ralph1231> worked for me
[07:13] <`m0> hmm
[07:13] <kikkertje> ralph1231, ist there manual or something, because i'm not that familiar with linux, just started using it for 2 weeks
[07:13] <`m0> how do I know what Video card I have/
[07:13] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'admin@localhost' (Using password: NO)
[07:13] <ralph1231> bout the same amount of time for me too
[07:13] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, is it possible the password has already been changed?
[07:13] <chaddy> `m0: lspci|grep video
[07:14] <`m0> thanks
[07:14] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: I'ts a brand new install... I even tried reinstalling...
[07:14] <simsalabim> Can someone explain to me why putting a symlink to / in /var/www lets apache browse the entire filesystem? Shouldnt that be blocked in the default setup?
[07:14] <`m0> chaddy: returned nothing
[07:14] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: could it be it's leaving behind a passwd file?
[07:14] <`m0> okay
[07:14] <fdsd> hi guys, How does ubuntu know the names I gave my external drives in Macosx?  when it mounts the hfs volumes it knows the name, how do I get this information via the command line?
[07:14] <`m0> I have Intel Corporation Movile 915 Graphics controller
[07:15] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, it's stored in a database, but that probably is left behind after an install
[07:15] <eigenlambda> lol
[07:15] <Rookie-> simsalabim - look on the perm for the symlink
[07:15] <chaddy> `m0: lspci|grep graphic
[07:15] <kmasta> what do i set in the interface properties if i haveno wep key
[07:15] <eigenlambda> `m0: somebody should have spend the extra $25 for a decent mobile graphics solution
[07:15] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, looks to be stored in /var/lib/mysql... you could try removing that directory and re-initializing / reinstalling
[07:15] <kikkertje> how do you use static routing, and static dns? :s
[07:15] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: trying...
[07:15] <seikon> test
[07:16] <chaddy> if that doesn't throw useful info lspci|less
[07:16] <simsalabim> Rookie-: Does it matter? I mean i created the symlink as my "normal user".. doestn that mean that any regular user with access to /var/www can leave the server wide open?
[07:16] <simsalabim> Rookie-: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1 2006-08-17 18:40 /var/www/joomla/bim.html -> /
[07:17] <eigenlambda> simsalabim: if you make that symlink, it means you wanted apache to go there
[07:17] <Rookie-> yea ... full perm on the link ... the link is the dir ...
[07:17] <digitallotus> simsalabim, you can tell apache not to follow symlinks...
[07:17] <kmasta> what should i be setting in my wireless connection properties if i'm not using a wep key
[07:18] <simsalabim> Rookie-: the apache security section recommends putting Deny from all in the <Directory /> section.. I tried that but still it shows /
[07:18] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: you're awsome. How did you figure out where it was stored?
[07:18] <fdsd> hey guys, what application automounts usb/firewire drives when they are plugged into ubuntu?
[07:18] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, been working with this stuff a long time... new to ubuntu, but been using bsd / slackware / redhat for 10+ years
[07:18] <simsalabim> digitallotus: yes probably i can tell it not to follow symlinks in /var/www, but still shouldnt that be set per default?
[07:18] <Rookie-> special permission for apache is set by the file .htaccess
[07:19] <FlyingSquirrel31> digitallotus: well thanks a lot.
[07:19] <digitallotus> FlyingSquirrel31, no problem
[07:19] <Mistraal> how do you apply compiz themes?
[07:19] <digitallotus> simsalabim, not sure... some people might want that setting... i guess it's up to the package maintainer...
[07:20] <Rookie-> a user should never walk out from his homedirectory ...
[07:20] <syntaxx> can i possibly install my old ubuntu cd and then upgrade it to the latest version?
[07:20] <kikkertje> hi, can some explain how to setup static routing and static dns
[07:20] <nutshell42> 1. how do I enable lvm partitions in the installer? Or do I have to do that manually?
[07:20] <jrib> !upgrade > syntaxx
[07:20] <fdsd> hey guys, what application automounts usb/firewire drives when they are plugged into ubuntu?
[07:21] <simsalabim> digitallotus: well seems insecure to me (but maybe im not understanding it thoroughly).. i mean I want to allow some friends to builda website, and to upload files with scp to /var/www, but i dont want them to see the entire system...
[07:21] <Rookie-> kikkertje - man named9 for dns routing .... write it
[07:21] <`m0> hehe hibernate turned off my computer :D
[07:21] <nutshell42> 2. How do I change the filesystem of an existing partition on which I want to install ubuntu? It shows me the properties just fine but I don't see any way to change the filesystem or mount options
[07:21] <kikkertje> tnx Rookie-
[07:21] <nutshell42> 3. The installer dies while trying to fsck one of the windows partitions, how do I keep it from doing the fsck?
[07:22] <nutshell42> tia
[07:22] <digitallotus> simsalabim, the option you'd want is Option -FollowSymlinks, iirc
[07:22] <simsalabim> digitallotus: k
[07:22] <Kiran87> !upgrad
[07:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about upgrad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:22] <Rookie-> if you want to have your own router ... you have to write the rules by your self ... you can also find progs on the net that can write it for you ... or atleast help you
[07:22] <Kiran87> !upgrade
[07:22] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[07:22] <vandit2k7> hi does anybody know how to change the resolution of the splash screen?
[07:22] <Rookie-> dns .... no good use for it unless you have a static ip out on the net
[07:22] <workin> are there any good games for (x)ubuntu?
[07:23] <simsalabim> digitallotus: i tried adding Deny from all to <Directory  /> in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.. shouldnt that prevent apache from reading / entirely?
[07:23] <workin> or anything like solitaire?
[07:23] <Oferon> in what directory is sources.list?
[07:23] <workin> freecell?
[07:23] <simsalabim> Oferon: /etc/apt
[07:23] <chaddy> workin: apt-get install xmoto, should keep you busy for a while
[07:23] <jrib> workin: chromiom, neverball, torcs are nice imo
[07:23] <jrib> workin: chromium*
[07:24] <workin> so xubuntu comes with games already?
[07:24] <chaddy> or more generally apt-cache search game
[07:24] <digitallotus> simsalabim, from what you're seeing, i'm guessing it takes the symlink'ed path, as in <Directory /path/to/symlink/>
[07:24] <Oferon> thank you simsalabim. I'd like to get working repositories and source-o-matic just broke my original working ones.
[07:24] <digitallotus> simsalabim, but i agree, it does seem like that should work...
[07:24] <ebarber> bye
[07:25] <simsalabim> digitallotus: i think youre right as the url in the browser says http://10.11.1.2/joomla/bim.html/ (that is the symlink) when showing /
[07:25] <Rookie-> why even make a symlink for / ... ?
[07:25] <fabsoft> hi all, i have a question. i wanna recompile my ubuntu kernel with own patches, but i cannot find it in repository
[07:25] <digitallotus> Rookie-, because you can? :)
[07:26] <Oferon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20900 help anyone. need working repositories. please.
[07:26] <Rookie-> ohh ... well, i got some news then ... in alinuxsystem you can do what ever you want .... question is only HOW it is done ;;)
[07:26] <fabsoft> linux-source has in description "kernel with patches" but i dont find misdn modules in tree ..
[07:27] <fabsoft> anyone know what source i have to download to have a image with all patches as linux-image ?
[07:27] <nutshell42> The installer dies while trying to fsck one of the windows partitions, how do I keep it from doing the fsck?
[07:28] <chaddy> nutshell42: try Hiren's boot disc, it has partition magic on it, set up your partitions then run the installer
[07:29] <fabsoft> nutshell42, try to kill fsck when it dies
[07:29] <chaddy> alternately reboot into windows and run scandisk
[07:29] <fabsoft> i guess it lock and no returns does ..
[07:29] <simsalabim> digitallotus: can you confirm this for me: the directives in the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default <VirtualHost *> section applies to the whole server? Or to the whole server minus whatever other virtualhost i have defined?
[07:29] <nutshell42> chaddy: thx, but that seems to to be an awfully complicated solution to something that seems to be an awfully simple problem (i.e. a minor partitioning option)
[07:30] <nutshell42> fabsoft: afaics it hangs in some script
[07:30] <chaddy> partitioning is *never* minor
[07:30] <nutshell42> erm, the option whether it should fsck all partitions or not is minor
[07:30] <digitallotus> simsalabim, hold up, let me get apache on this box and see how it's setup...
[07:31] <linux_user400354> i like ubuntu 5.10 better than 6.06
[07:31] <nutshell42> having a way to manage lvm partitions otoh would be a major improvement =)
[07:31] <DanaG> I still can't get DHCP client to work.
[07:31] <Oferon> can someone tell me where to find the original (the ones that come with fresh install) repositories?
[07:31] <simsalabim> digitallotus: ah, sorry, I didnt mean to get you into trouble :-)
[07:32] <digitallotus> simsalabim, nah, i've been meaning to put it on here anyway.... i'm just sure the config is a little different than redhat / slackware / etc...
[07:32] <nutshell42> chaddy: do kubuntu or xubuntu use the same install script/gparted?
[07:32] <Oferon> !repositories
[07:32] <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
[07:32] <MZM> DanaG: which client and how You know, that it fails?
[07:32] <Oferon> !easysource
[07:32] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:32] <linux_user400354> i like ubuntu 5.10 better than 6.06
[07:32] <RalleAb> hello! I have done everything in this tutorial: http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/2006/07/30/how-to-dreamweaver-running-on-ubuntu-in-10-easy-steps/ but I am not able to do the "recode" thing..and I think thats why I cant import the macromedia.reg which makes me unable to use dreamweaver
[07:32] <simsalabim> digitallotus: it is.. it seems nicely organized..
[07:33] <chaddy> no idea, I have an ubuntu rescue disc that I use for partitioning, nutshell42
[07:33] <GreatBriton> hi, i need help (running dapper on amd64), i'm following this howto: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133427 to install xgl and compiz. i've got to part 4, but am now stuck, i get the message "dpkg: operation requires read/write access to dpkg status area"
[07:33] <kblin> hi
[07:33] <linux_user400354> GreatBriton: are you using sudo?
[07:34] <simsalabim> digitallotus: fyi: "Be careful with the directory-path arguments: They have to literally match the filesystem path which Apache uses to access the files. Directives applied to a particular <Directory> will not apply to files accessed from that same directory via a different path, such as via different symbolic links."

[07:35] <ciaran_> hi guys
[07:35] <niklas_e> is there any way to change the boot (grub), it now is on ata and ubuntu is on sata, but the bios has to be on ata cause it hasn't installed grub on the sata boot
[07:35] <linux_user400354> GreatBriton: you could try asking on the ubuntuforums i never installed xgl, so i dont know what the problem is
[07:36] <MZM> DanaG: can You describe Your problem?
[07:37] <dpupp> ok! i was installing automatix, and i modified my xorg.conf for multiple monitor support.... somehow i ended up breaking my net connection. im reinstalling ndiswrapper but when i say: "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" ir replies: FATAL: could not open /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/net/ndiswrapper.ko no such file or directory.  what to do? ... what to do? ...
[07:37] <cica> hi guys
[07:38] <linux_user400354> dpupp: try this   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:38] <digitallotus> simsalabim, it looks like those settings are applied to the default / main site
[07:38] <cica> I'm tryin to run a make on a file I just downloaded and am about to install. I've checked and the makefile is present. But when I try to run make I get the following error: -bash: make: command not found. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
[07:38] <digitallotus> simsalabim, if you setup additional virtual hosts, their configuration is used instead of the default
[07:38] <dpupp> EEek! whole screen went black!
[07:39] <chaddy> cica: apt-get install build-essential
[07:39] <cica> chaddy: as root?
[07:39] <chaddy> yeah
[07:39] <Larsson-Sweden> How to hide the controls when using gmplayer?
[07:39] <Larsson-Sweden> When playing fullscreen
[07:39] <Jamminpotato> where is x11.conf?
[07:40] <linux_user400354> Larsson-Sweden: use full screen mode and they will hide
[07:40] <Larsson-Sweden> linux_user400354, no, its in the middle of the screen.
[07:40] <dpupp> linux_user400354, screen is black and im at a terminal
[07:40] <digitallotus> Jamminpotato, it's xorg.conf now
[07:40] <linux_user400354> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:40] <linux_user400354> Jamminpotato: use your brain and search for it `locate xorg.conf`
[07:41] <linux_user400354> dpupp: whats the problem?
[07:41] <MZM> linux_user400354: that's rude. Ubuntu is for lames - so live with it
[07:41] <chaddy> linux_user400354: he's hardly going to find it if he has the wrong name for it
[07:41] <dpupp> i was trying to do modprobe ndiswrapper, but its giving an error... i did what you say about gdm stop... now im at a terminal
[07:42] <dpupp> it says it cant locate ndiswrapper.ko
[07:42] <linux_user400354> dpupp: sorry, i havent had to get a wireless card working since my laptop died. i was using software from www.linuxant.com back then when i needed to get my network adapter working.
[07:42] <simsalabim> digitallotus: i just took a trip to #apache.. that helped :-)
[07:43] <digitallotus> simsalabim, excellent
[07:43] <linux_user400354> dpupp: try reinstalling ndiswrapper
[07:43] <cica> chaddy: your a star! thanks
[07:43] <kashual> lol
[07:43] <chaddy> yw, cica
[07:43] <dpupp> im doing that... but i cant modprobe it... it keeps saying ndiswrapper.ko is not there.
[07:43] <cica> chaddy: yw ?
[07:44] <chaddy> you're welcome!
[07:44] <dpupp> i tried building the latest version but it says im missing some path to something...
[07:44] <cica> chaddy: new to this :-)
[07:44] <cica> chaddy: thanks again
[07:44] <tyler_d> how do I tell what my iPod is called so that I can manually unmount it???
[07:44] <linux_user400354> dpupp: thats why i hate compiling. software works fine when i use apt-get or synaptic, but when i start compiling, its hell
[07:45] <dpupp> can i just copy ndiswrapper.ko to the location its expecting to see it?
[07:45] <kashual> realplayer sucks
[07:45] <linux_user400354> kashual: use xmms
[07:45] <ballchalk> hello
[07:45] <ballchalk> how's everyone
[07:45] <dpupp> damn! realplayer still around? ... geez.
[07:45] <kashual> try to install but it's so stupid
[07:45] <xopher> Is it just me or is gnome-terminal broken atm? My gnome-terminal-data got upgraded and terminal removed.. Now I dont have a (virtual) terminal anymore :P
[07:45] <chaddy> lo ballchalk, fine and dandy
[07:45] <skroll> dpupp: actually yes.  And Real is about to release an open-source wmv player
[07:45] <ballchalk> hey
[07:45] <simsalabim> digitallotus: the reason why deny on <Directory /> doesnt work is that to the filesystem the symlink is the directory its linking to.. so <Directory /> will not match the symlink.. but you can use SymlinksIfOwnersMatch on /var/www to make apache only follow symlinks where the owner is the same as the owner of the file which is being pointed to
[07:45] <ballchalk> is it true linux is for idiot?
[07:46] <dpupp> hmm sounds interesting.
[07:46] <ballchalk> i was in #freebsd and they told me so
[07:46] <linux_user400354> dpupp: what irc client are you using?
[07:46] <chaddy> linux is for anyone, ballchalk
[07:46] <kashual> linux_user400354 shure better .... much better
[07:46] <simsalabim> digitallotus: i hope what i type makes sense :-)
[07:46] <ballchalk> why are the bsd community so fired up all the time i don't get it - i'm only using windows server 2003 looking to switch but was still trying to decide
[07:47] <linux_user400354> dpupp: are you in windows?
[07:48] <chaddy> ubuntu is a very good starting point, ballchalk, caters for all experience levels
[07:48] <ballchalk> yeap
[07:48] <grogoreo> hi
[07:48] <ballchalk> just installed it yesterday and spent 5 hours installing packages for it
[07:48] <grogoreo> is Hula a mail server as well as a web mail client?
[07:48] <gahan> how to enable system tray in gnome?
[07:48] <linux_user400354> wow bzip2 runs a lot faster when i am not using X
[07:48] <Oferon> argh. I hate repositories. T.T Can't fix em, can't find build-essentials.
[07:48] <erUSUL> gahan: right click in the panel and choose add to panel> notification area
[07:48] <ballchalk> well i have a thinkpad and looking for a platform that will support my devices
[07:48] <chaddy> Oferon: build-essential not essentials
[07:48] <Master_5> Oferon build-essential
[07:49] <ballchalk> i looked at the hcl and found other distros like redhat
[07:49] <gahan> erUSUL: thanks :)
[07:49] <MFen> anyone here on dell poweredge 2950 servers? or some recent vintage
[07:49] <dpupp> how do you delete a directory again?
[07:49] <simsalabim> digitallotus: anyway thanks for the help so far :-)
[07:49] <dpupp> in terminal
[07:49] <chaddy> rmdir dpupp
[07:49] <chaddy> I think
[07:49] <ballchalk> redhat will detect all my devices....can i use their drivers for kubuntu?
[07:49] <erUSUL> !commands > dpupp
[07:50] <Master_5> dpupp rm -rf directory_name
[07:50] <MFen> i had trouble with the megaraid card and the network chipset.  i found solutions to those, but right now the problem is i'm *real* fuzzy on what's required for the megaraid driver
[07:50] <MFen> i know i need to do a mkinitrd, but how?
[07:50] <linux_user400354> 72% cpu usage from bunzip2. is that a lot?
[07:50] <MFen> mkinitramfs doesn't really work when i'm booting from a rescue cd because the kernel doesn't match
[07:50] <MFen> maybe what i'm looking for is a simple howto on mkinitramfs, for the purpose of fixing this kind of problem (no driver for the primary hard drives)
[07:50] <erUSUL> MFen: with mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd-whateverkernel 2.6.xxx
[07:50] <Master_5> linux_user400354 compression programs use a lot of cpu because they are crunching numbers
[07:51] <dpupp> thanks
[07:51] <linux_user400354> Master_5: what do you mean by "crunching numbers"
[07:51] <MFen> erUSUL: that works even when you're running from rescue mode off the cd?
[07:51] <Master_5> linux_user400354 lots of hard arithmetic
[07:52] <linux_user400354> Master_5: do you know how huffmans code works?
[07:52] <erUSUL> MFen: you'd better do a chroot to the hd instalation
[07:52] <MFen> erUSUL: yeah, that's actually an option on the cd
[07:52] <MFen> but uname -a still doesn't match :)
[07:53] <linux_user400354> Master_5: hello
[07:53] <Master_5> linux_user400354: http://www.personal.kent.edu/~rmuhamma/Algorithms/MyAlgorithms/Greedy/huffman.htm
[07:53] <linux_user400354> Master_5: im not asking for a website. ive already studied it.
[07:53] <erUSUL> MFen: so? in the mkinitrd you give the version of the kernl you want your initrd. 'man mkinitrd'
[07:54] <MFen> mkinitrd doesn't exist
[07:54] <MFen> it's mkinitramfs now
[07:54] <MFen> i'm not sure if that's actually the same program or not
[07:54] <MFen> the one time i muddled through this, years ago, it was called mkinitrd
[07:56] <Master_5> linux_user400354: i was only answering your question about cpu usage, I'm sorry if I missed some sarcasm or something
[07:56] <prakash> hello
[07:56] <chaddy> linux_user400354: basic terms like "number crunching" you may find the wikipedia helpful
[07:57] <justin_> Whats a good Linux burning app, that I can burn VCD?
[07:57] <dpupp> how would i install kernel headers if i cant access the net via synaptic?? :( is there a specific name i can find it on the cd? ...
[07:57] <NickGarvey> dpupp does another computer have internet access?
[07:58] <chaddy> apt-cache search linux-header dpupp
[07:58] <dpupp> the one im using... notebook.
[07:58] <dpupp> im working on my desktop.
[07:58] <linux_user400354> okay im back
[07:58] <erUSUL> MFen: does not exist... good to know as i'm using it to install all my kernels maybe i'm a wizard without knowing it XD ... i can make death programs appear again ;)
[07:58] <NickGarvey> dpupp: download the .deb on your notebook and transfer it to your desktop
[07:58] <linux_user400354> Master_5: read about huffmans coding to get a good understanding of it. huffmans coding is an algorithm that uses a binary search tree.
[07:58] <Master_5> linux_user400354: i was only answering your question about cpu usage, I'm sorry if I missed some sarcasm or something
[07:59] <wheels3572> How do I get around the following Error Message

[07:59] <Swedish_Chef> argh
[07:59] <Swedish_Chef> does apt log all the packages it installs?
[07:59] <chaddy> Swedish_Chef: dpkg -l for a full list of what's on there
[08:00] <Swedish_Chef> chaddy: the problem i'm having is that i want to downgrade some stuff from another repository, but i don't remember all the packages it upgraded
[08:00] <Swedish_Chef> i added the compiz.net and beerorkid.com repositories for compiz/xgl stuff, and today it updated fontconfig
[08:00] <chaddy> ah
[08:00] <Swedish_Chef> and now my fonts look a little uglier
[08:00] <Swedish_Chef> too bold
[08:00] <linux_user400354> 1049 packages come installed on Ubuntu 5.10
[08:00] <Swedish_Chef> i can't seem to fix it
[08:00] <dpupp> also, on a side note, i have a pent 4 notebook... i installed ubuntu 386... i was told it should be 686..... is that right?
[08:01] <NickGarvey> yeah, p4 = 686
[08:01] <chaddy> dpupp: you can upgrade the kernel in synaptic
[08:01] <Alecf> what architecture is the pentium 4's with ectended 64 technology
[08:01] <Swedish_Chef> i've downgraded libfontconfig1, libfontconfig1-dev, and fontconfig, as well as removed fontconfig-config
[08:01] <dpupp> ok.
[08:01] <Alecf> what architecture is the pentium 4's with extended 64 technology and ht
[08:02] <chaddy> Alecf: 686
[08:02] <Alecf> uh?
[08:02] <Alecf> i mean like x86 or IA64
[08:02] <dpupp> "cant find kernel build files" that means im missing headers? right? ...
[08:02] <Swedish_Chef> x86
[08:02] <Swedish_Chef> amd64, probably
[08:02] <cr3> what is the equivalent of iptables for 2.6 kernel?
[08:02] <Alecf> what?
[08:02] <Alecf> argh
[08:02] <NickGarvey> Swedish_Chef: I doubt a p4 would be a amd64
[08:02] <rsk> cr3: iptables
[08:02] <soundray> cr3: still iptables
[08:02] <Swedish_Chef> NickGarvey: but the ones with em64t can compile as amd64, i believe
[08:02] <soundray> Can
[08:03] <chaddy> Alecf: the x in x86 is a variable
[08:03] <linux_user400354> intelikey: email the developers. thats what i do sometimes when i have a problem with software.
[08:03] <Alecf> IA64 or x86 are my options
[08:03] <Swedish_Chef> Alecf: x86
[08:03] <Swedish_Chef> ia64 is itanium only
[08:03] <Alecf> ok
[08:03] <NickGarvey> yeah
[08:03] <Alecf> tr
[08:03] <Swedish_Chef> and very, very few people use that superexpensive chip
[08:03] <cr3> soundray: thanks, I was confused by the description "2.4+". I guess the "+" encompasses 2.6 :)
[08:03] <Alecf> thanks even
[08:03] <soundray> Can't boot - please help: I've created an apparently impossible network config. Now at boot my laptop hangs at "Configuring network interfaces" (both normal and recovery)
[08:04] <Swedish_Chef> okay well, is there a way to sync all packages to the official ubuntu versions?
[08:04] <NickGarvey> soundray: use a boot cd and chmod -x that script
[08:04] <Swedish_Chef> the differences in the font rendering are not too big, but enough to drive my crazy
[08:04] <Swedish_Chef> the fonts on dapper were perfect D:
[08:04] <jrib> soundray: can you hit ctrl-c?
[08:04] <soundray> NickGarvey: which script?
[08:04] <soundray> jrib: I sure can, but nothing happens.
[08:05] <tich> i have a movie with an nrg file extension which aparently is created by nero but i can't open it. does anyone know how?

[08:12] <chaddy> smacky_: k3b
[08:13] <Seldane> This is what it says on the website: STEP 3: Install
[08:13] <Seldane> Type "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run" to install the driver.
[08:13] <Seldane> I don't know where to type this. Any ideas?
[08:13] <Rug> I am stuck on a samba problem.  I have ceated my share, I can Read the dir's & files within, I can even change to different sub-dirs.  I cannot make new files/edit existing files.

[08:14] <mchawla_> I am having problems accessing wireless with my laptop. Everything is fine. The card is detected. Even the access point and hte network is detected.

[08:14] <basvg> hi all.. any xcompmgr guru's around? I just installed it and it seems to work just fine. transset also seems to work just fine.

[08:14] <fdsd> Seldane, open terminal, cd to the directory you saved NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run, and type chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run and ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run  you probably have to put sudo infront

[08:29] <_kmh_> jrib : so i used the xubuntu boot cd
[08:29] <jrib> _kmh_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows are you following this?
[08:29] <chaddy> grub-install?
[08:29] <ruvia99> ola wapos
[08:29] <_kmh_> jrib : i'm not clear at which point to enter the resucue command, there 's no prompt appearing automatically
[08:29] <c0de_> Does anyone in here use xfce ?
[08:29] <_kmh_> jrib : yes the link you've posted earlier
[08:30] <mchawla_> Spec: IT says unknown device
[08:30] <chaddy> c0de_: you might find some in #xubuntu
[08:30] <c0de_> chaddy: Ok thanks
[08:30] <Spec> mchawla_: is it a usb wifi card or what?
[08:30] <chaddy> ;-)
[08:30] <mchawla_> Spec: yes it is that one
[08:30] <Spec> lsusb
[08:31] <Spec> i don't know anything about usb wifi devices, sorry
[08:31] <jrib> _kmh_: you may want to follow "Using the LiveCD and Overwriting the Windows bootloader" section.  I'm not familiar with what exactly the xubuntu boot cd is, but if it is a live cd then those isntructions should work for you
[08:31] <mchawla_> Spec: Oh yes after doing lsusb, it detects the card as the one from BroadCom corporation
[08:32] <soundray> fdsd: hmount will tell you the "Volume name"
[08:32] <Spec> mchawla_: my only suggestion is to set the rate to 11M
[08:32] <Spec> mchawla_: iwconfig <devicename> rate 11M
[08:32] <mchawla_> it does all that
[08:32] <mchawla_> Eveything is there
[08:32] <CBMz> Hi, my friend is trying to run an ubuntu live cd. but he has problems.
[08:32] <Spec> where <devicename> is wlan0 or eth0 or something like that
[08:32] <santa99> he Spec, when i try to change them to defaults it says no files found
[08:32] <alienseer23> hello, I need to either change the permissions or the ownership of a folder owned by root, can someone help me, please?
[08:32] <Spec> santa99: ?
[08:32] <Spec> santa99: the scripts that are run on start up are really in /etc/init.d/
[08:32] <derekS> is anyone else here having a problem with lm-sensors? http://pastebin.ca/136483   <---- that is my error, please help :)
[08:32] <CBMz> he sees lines in blue, green and yellow] 
[08:32] <mchawla_> Spec: The only problem is that it doesn't get assigned a DHCP Address
[08:33] <Spec> santa99: your default runlevel is 2, so the symlinks in /etc/rc2.d/* are called on boot
[08:33] <santa99> Spec, the are in /etc/rc2.d
[08:33] <fdsd> soundray, im trying to figure out how hmount works it says hmount /dev/hda :  Contains 1 HFS partition  hmount: /dev/hda: not a Macintosh HFS volume (Invalid Argument)
[08:33] <Spec> santa99: symlinks are in rc2.d, they point to the scripts in /etc/init.d/
[08:33] <santa99> Spec, so i removed them with update-rc.d scriptname remove
[08:33] <_kmh_> jrib : ic, i was trying the first approach though, xubuntu boot cd, is just the install cd (i assume it to be similar to ubuntu more or less, just a different window manager)
[08:33] <soundray> fdsd: probably hmount /dev/hda1
[08:33] <santa99> Spec, but after update-rc.d scriptname defaults it says
[08:34] <abhinay> is it possible to install Ubuntu-Dapper in text mode ?
[08:34] <mchawla_> I am having problems accessing wireless with my laptop. Everything is fine. The card is detected. Even the access point and hte network is detected. Just that it either doesn't get assigned an IP address by the DHCP server or if it is assigned(rarely), it still keeps dropping packets and all and hence I am not even able to ping any website
[08:34] <santa99> Spec, scriptname no files found
[08:34] <jrib> _kmh_: when you start the cd does it take you straight to a desktop?
[08:34] <fdsd> soundray, volume is smaller than 800k, hda3 is the volume
[08:34] <CBMz> could anyone help me?
[08:34] <xyr|x> hi all, somehow i just mess up my xorg.conf.. what is the dpkg command to reset my xorg back? thanx..
[08:34] <Warbo> alienseer23: "sudo chown username.group filename" will change owner/group and "sudo chmod XXX filename" will change the permissions. Permissions are done numerically (so 000 means nobody can do anything and 777 means anyone can do anything. I forget the exact values of read/write/execute)
[08:34] <santa99> Spec, how could I rebuild this symlinks ?
[08:34] <fdsd> soundray, but that gives me the error hmount /dev/hda3 not a Macintosh HFS volume (Invalid argument)
[08:34] <CBMz> my friend sees yellow, blue and green lines all over his screen, and he has a Nvidia GeForce6800
[08:34] <matko> hello. how can I switch irc channels in irssi ?
[08:35] <syntaxx> xyr|x, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:35] <jrib> matko: alt-#
[08:35] <rsk> matko: with alt + a
[08:35] <rsk> and alt-*#
[08:35] <xyr|x> thanx man!
[08:35] <alienseer23> warbo, so sudo chown (myname.mygroup.the file i want changed) will fix it?
[08:35] <soundray> fdsd: it's probably hfsplus, right?
[08:35] <fdsd> yes
[08:35] <matko> ou cool thanx :)

[08:36] <Red-Sox> thanks ubotu ;)
[08:36] <thundermaster> how can  i reinstall  rhythmbox ?  I can't  start it anymore ....
[08:36] <Spec> santa99: the script 'whateverscript' must be in /etc/init.d/
[08:36] <alienseer23> cool
[08:36] <alienseer23> thank you
[08:36] <Red-Sox> WHAT?
[08:36] <Spec> colons are better :p
[08:36] <CBMz> my friend sees yellow, blue and green lines all over his screen, and he has an Nvidia GeForce6800
[08:36] <Red-Sox> Where is the pastebinned sources.list??

[08:36] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[08:36] <harisund> hello everyone! Does anyone know how to stop the gnome-keyring-daemon from starting during Gnome boot? I have looked everywhere (/usr/share/gnome/default.session, /etc/X11/Xsession.options, /etc/xdg/autostart) but nowhere am I able to find what's responsible for autostarting the silly gnome-keyring-daemon
[08:36] <_kmh_> jrib : first there's a menu 1) start or install 2) start safe mode 3) check cd defects 4)memory test 5) boot from first harddisk   after that it takes me to the desktop (depending on the choice)
[08:36] <santa99> Spec, so i have to copy it back in /etc/init.d/ after removing it with update-rc.d scriptname remove
[08:37] <Red-Sox> yeah thanks Spec
[08:37] <godzirra> What do I need to install to get X working?
[08:37] <proselyte> im having trouble updating firefox...
[08:37] <godzirra> currently I ahve no X setup on my ubnutu box.
[08:37] <Spec> santa99: no, update-rc.d scriptname remove won't delete the script in /etc/init.d
[08:37] <harisund> matko did you figure out how to switch channels?
[08:37] <Warbo> godzirra: xserver-xorg
[08:37] <mchawla_> Hi, Did somebody face the problem of wireless card not accepting the Offer from the DHCP server? Everything is fine in my case. Only this thing is creating the problem. It keeps DHCPDISCOVER and all, but doesn't end up anywhere.
[08:37] <proselyte> first-- should i use swiftfox
[08:37] <Spec> santa99: it'll only delete the symlinks in /etc/rc#.d/
[08:37] <NickGarvey> mchawla_: I did, and now I use SuSe heh
[08:37] <harisund> Is there a Gnome only channel?
[08:37] <godzirra> Warbo: awesome, thank you.  What is the program I run to configure it after installing?
[08:37] <chaddy> godzirra: the smallest meta-package you can install for X is, I think, xubuntu-desktop
[08:37] <Spec> probably #gnome
[08:37] <fdsd> soundray, I can mount it fine using mount -t hfsplus /dev/hda3 /mnt/harddrive
[08:37] <Warbo> ##gnome
[08:37] <NickGarvey> harisund: probably #gonme
[08:37] <NickGarvey> gnome*
[08:38] <godzirra> or will apt-get automatically do it/
[08:38] <santa99> Spec, but the symlink in etc/rc2.d stays and the the symlink in /etc/init.d/ is gone
[08:38] <mchawla_> NickGarvey: So did Suse Work fine ?
[08:38] <NickGarvey> well #gnome forwards to ##gnome
[08:38] <mchawla_> I mean no problems at all ?
[08:38] <harisund> Ok ..
[08:38] <Warbo> godzirra: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" (it shoudl run anyway after being installed)
[08:38] <NickGarvey> mchawla_: yup, none at all
[08:38] <mchawla_> ah ok
[08:38] <santa99> Spec, so i have to copy the scriptname  in /etc/init.d/ and run update-rc.d scriptname defaults
[08:38] <Spec> santa99: the symlink in /etc/rc2.d should have been deleted and the script in /etc/init.d/ should have stayed
[08:38] <NickGarvey> mchawla_: but it worked for me, might not for you
[08:38] <Spec> santa99: yeap
[08:38] <jrib> _kmh_: I'm not sure hot to get you to the boot: prompt then so you can use the first method.  I'm fairly certain it refers to install-only cd's and not the live cd's
[08:38] <mchawla_> NickGarvey: I have been trying since two days
[08:39] <mchawla_> NickGarvey: and no luck
[08:39] <NickGarvey> :/
[08:39] <santa99> Spec, but I fixed it the other way as you have told it to me
[08:39] <RalleAb> I am searching for the FFF crack for dreamweaver. do you know where I can get it?
[08:39] <proselyte> whois proselyte
[08:39] <proselyte> whups
[08:39] <alienseer23> warbo, will this work for a folder, it sais missing parameter after the command?
[08:39] <santa99> Spec, do you know a gui tool for this work
[08:39] <Warbo> RalleAb: Don't ask for warez in here
[08:39] <MZM> how is called app to add/remove daemons from runlevels?
[08:39] <Spec> santa99: no, i know CLI well :p
[08:39] <xyr|x> !help
[08:39] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[08:40] <Spec> xyr|x: what type of help do you seek?
[08:40] <Warbo> alienseer23: You can use that to change JUST the folder, but to do all of it's contents as well add "-R" to the end
[08:40] <TheDon_craiger> Anyone ever have problems with cups config in ubuntu not giving you the option to pick USB as a local port?
[08:40] <alienseer23> all of the contents of the folder already are fine, weird...now it tells me that the operation is not permitted??
[08:41] <derekS> so no one knows anything about my lm-sensors issue?
[08:41] <Warbo> alienseer23: Are you sure you are using sudo before the command?
[08:41] <godzirra> Warbo: I keep getting "could not find default font 'fixed'"
[08:41] <erUSUL> TheDon_craiger: yes but only with unstable kernels i compile myself
[08:41] <santa99> Spec, do you know how the package for CLI is named ?
[08:41] <alienseer23> I am in a root terminal
[08:41] <soundray> fdsd: have you looked at the utilities in the hfsplus package?
[08:41] <matko> quit
[08:41] <Warbo> godzirra: That's weird, xserver-xorg should drag in all packages which Xorg needs
[08:41] <fdsd> soundray, no but let me look into that
[08:41] <xyr|x> Spec : just seeing what the bot replies ;)
[08:41] <godzirra> Warbo: any sugegstions?
[08:42] <Red-Sox> Either that didn't work or I'm retarded, probably the latter
[08:42] <epitaf-laptop> i am trying to install ubuntu from the live cd, but i keep getting I/O errors when booting from the cd. I read in a thread on the ubuntu forums that adding the parameter "irqpoll" after pressing f6 should solve the problem
[08:42] <alienseer23> changing ownership of `/media/sda1/audio/': Operation not permitted
[08:42] <Red-Sox> Spec: ^^
[08:42] <Warbo> godzirra: You could fire up aptitude and look for some font packages
[08:42] <harisund> Does anybody know why is that even with a apt quiet preference of 2, it tells me what software pacakges are being installed? Is redirecting the output/error to a file the only way to avoid all output all together from apt?
[08:42] <quiet> sh
[08:42] <epitaf-laptop> my current boot options end with "splash --". where would i put irqpoll?
[08:42] <AMDfanboy> hi is there an expert in the house?  i need some serious help.
[08:42] <harisund> AMDfanboy just ask your question :)
[08:42] <AMDfanboy> thanks in advance!
[08:42] <FlyingSquirrel31> how can I get apt-get to reinstall apache2 and replace ALL of the config files with the defaults?
[08:43] <MZM> AMDfanboy: just ask, I will answer!
[08:43] <epitaf-laptop> answer me instead! :D
[08:43] <soundray> FlyingSquirrel31: remove it first with 'apt-get --purge remove'
[08:43] <Warbo> FlyingSquirrel31: "sudo apt-get --purge apache2 && sudo apt-get install apache2"
[08:43] <harisund> FlyingSquirrel31 'sudo apt-get --purge remove apache2-common; sudo apt-get install apache2-common?
[08:43] <Warbo> Oh yeah, --purge remove apache2 :)
[08:43] <santa99> :)
[08:43] <harisund> soundray and Warbo the package to be removed is apache2-common and not just apache2
[08:43] <cytrak> hey guys I keep running into this problem every now and then and I know I have done it before .. I got ubuntu on a CF card which works fine ... I create a dd of /dev/sda1 from that CF .. I mount the image, make some changes and the dd it back to a new card to /dev/sda1 .. but then when I try to boot I get operating system missing
[08:44] <Rug> I am stuck on a samba problem.  I have ceated my share, I can Read the dir's & files within, I can even change to different sub-dirs.  I cannot make new files/edit existing files.
[08:44] <Rug> I have used webmin to add all my users to give the correct permissions, but alas it doesn't seem to help
[08:44] <AMDfanboy> i got myself all confused with symbolic links and now i cant find any of my data.  i had one hard drive where i keep all my documents /mnt/hdb1 -- i wanted to make a folder /docs that would open into it.  so i made a symbolic link
[08:44] <harisund> soundray, Warbo the problem is the configuration files that FlyingSquirrel31 is looking for are a part of the apache2-common pacakge
[08:44] <FlyingSquirrel31> I tried --purge with apache2, but not with apache2-common
[08:44] <Warbo> harisund: OK, just that I left out the remove
[08:44] <AMDfanboy> i got myself all confused with symbolic links and now i cant find any of my data.  i had one hard drive where i keep all my documents /mnt/hdb1 -- i wanted to make a folder /docs that would open into it.  so i made a symbolic link
 ln -s /docs /mnt/hdb1
 then all my stuff in /mnt/hdb1 was gone
 what did i do?
[08:44] <harisund> FlyingSquirrel31 purging apache2 won't help. all config files are a part of apache2-common
[08:44] <soundray> FlyingSquirrel31: sounds like harisund is your man
[08:45] <harisund> AMDfanboy I think you reversed the order I think it should have been ln -s /mnt/hdb1 /docs
[08:45] <nnn0> what is the difference between inetutils-inetd and netkit-inetd ???
[08:45] <santa99> Spec, do you have a idea because i can't find nothing suiting
[08:45] <godzirra> Warbo: I tried installing a few font pacakges...
[08:45] <cytrak> I keep on forgeting should I dd sda or sda1 ?
[08:45] <epitaf-laptop> Anybody?
[08:45] <harisund> cytrak there is no sda. It's always sda+plus some number
[08:45] <FlyingSquirrel31> thanks all.
[08:45] <cytrak> I know I have done it sda1 before and it worked
[08:45] <AMDfanboy> harisund: probably did, but how do i get it back?
[08:46] <alienseer23> changed permissions
[08:46] <AMDfanboy> i removed the link, how nothing is in /mnt/hdb1
[08:46] <alienseer23> instead of ownership
[08:46] <alienseer23> it worked :)
[08:46] <cytrak> harisund: well sda is for the whole disk with all partitions
[08:46] <harisund> AMDfanboy try to delete /docs and do 'sudo mount -a'
[08:46] <alienseer23> thank you
[08:46] <workin> so I got xubuntu but it doesnt have much in it... where can I get some good apps?
[08:46] <harisund> cytrak yes, but I doubt you can access the entire hard disk like that.
[08:46] <harisund> workin what are you looking for?
[08:46] <nnn0> what should i use ? inetutils-inetd or netkit-inetd ?
[08:46] <AMDfanboy> harisund: i'm using mepis, so i'll do an su
[08:46] <santa99> maybe anybody else here can tell me what gui program i should take for looking what programs are executed at the startup ?
[08:47] <workin> games at this moment
[08:47] <Warbo> godzirra: Hmm. I just checked out packages.ubuntu.com and xserver-xorg doesn't depend directly on any font packages, but I haven't gone through the whole tree of dependencies...
[08:47] <harisund> santa99 there is something called bum (boot up manager)
[08:47] <workin> just simple games
[08:47] <workin> like solitaire
[08:47] <soundray> santa99: bum
[08:47] <soundray> !info bum
[08:47] <ubotu> bum: graphical runlevel editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.5-1build1 (dapper), package size 74 kB, installed size 484 kB
[08:47] <harisund> workin you still have a synaptic software installer tool. Use that and search for your games.
[08:47] <Warbo> workin: Do you have Universe enabled?
[08:47] <TheDon_craiger> sorry, pinged out there. did anyone answer my cups question by any chance?
[08:47] <santa99> thx
[08:47] <workin> what is that?
[08:47] <godzirra> Warbo: well crap.  I know its not working now :/
[08:47] <workin> I just got done installing it now.
[08:47] <Warbo> !universe > workin
[08:47] <workin> I'm a noop

[08:48] <AMDfanboy> sudo mount -a
[08:48] <workin> I don't know how to work it
[08:48] <nnn0> shit not one of you guys knows jack about inetd - that's amazing !
[08:48] <Warbo> workin: That enables LOADS more software packages. Then just look for games in Synaptic
[08:48] <godzirra> I'm installing xubuntu-desktop atm.
[08:48] <cytrak> harisund: that's not true you can dd the whole thing
[08:48] <godzirra> its a  300 meg download though :p
[08:48] <harisund> cytrak: ah dd! ok .. that makes sense... thanksk.
[08:48] <erUSUL> !language > nnn0
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> harisund: did it, should i print the results?
[08:48] <workin> ok.. so how do I enable universe
[08:48] <workin> ?
[08:48] <Warbo> workin: You should have got a message with instructions from ubotu
[08:48] <nnn0> fuck off !
[08:48] <harisund> nnn0 that's not very nice to say .. perhaps nobody here has used it ....
[08:48] <Ademan> can you configure the gnome menu with an xml file?
[08:48] <harisund> AMDfanboy what do you mean print the results?
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> root@1[/] # mount -a
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: none already mounted or /proc/bus/usb busy
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: according to mtab, procbususb is already mounted on /proc/bus/usb
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: none already mounted or /dev/pts busy
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: according to mtab, devpts is already mounted on /dev/pts
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: none already mounted or /sys busy
[08:48] <harisund> Ademan technically speaking, you definitely can.
[08:48] <AMDfanboy> mount: according to mtab, /sys is already mounted on /sys
[08:49] <Warbo> !paste > AMDfanboy
[08:49] <workin> i got no message
[08:49] <workin> I don't have my laptop set up to the internet
[08:49] <harisund> AMDfanboy don't paste here. Can you post the contents of your /etc/fstab file somewhere online? Like in pastebin? /
[08:49] <Ademan> harisund: what do you mean technically speaking? is it practically possible? like for the end user?
[08:49] <Warbo> !universe
[08:49] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[08:49] <Warbo> workin: There you go
[08:49] <workin> I'm just looking for stuff to jump drive to my laptop
[08:49] <AMDfanboy> sure
[08:49] <harisund> Ademan there is a tool called Alacarte I think that's supposed to help edit the menus. You will be better off with that.
[08:49] <harisund> Other than that, AMDfanboy do you know what type of partition is /dev/hdb1? FAT? NTFS?
[08:50] <workin> ok
[08:50] <Warbo> workin: OK, then you can use packages.ubuntu.com and look for some game packages. However, since you will not be using a package manager directly you will have to download the dependencies manually
[08:50] <AMDfanboy> my bad
[08:50] <AMDfanboy> its reiserfs
[08:50] <Ademan> harishund: i have alacarte, i didnt realize you coudl add sections (other GtkMenu's)
[08:50] <alienseer23> next quick question: can anyone reccomend a media player with nice sound enhancement plugins, good audio visualization plugins, that is good for just about any filetype andhas exemplary library interface?
[08:50] <harisund> AMDfanboy: whoa. Interesting. Haven't seeen anyone use that before. hmmmmm.....
[08:51] <Ademan> harishund: hah i just found it
[08:51] <harisund> Ademan so did you manage to do what you want? Or are you still looking at the editing xml fiels options?
[08:51] <basvg> hmm.. does anyone know how to fix the logoutbutton when running xcompmngr ?
[08:51] <workin> will ubuntu packages work on xubuntu?
[08:51] <AMDfanboy> i'm using mepis, i dont htink you can use it easily on ubuntu?
[08:51] <harisund> workin they should.
[08:51] <Ademan> workin: of course
[08:51] <Ademan> workin: the kernel is identical
[08:51] <workin> ok
[08:51] <workin> thank you!
[08:51] <Ademan> the only difference is your desktop envornment
[08:51] <harisund> AMDfanboy technically speaking on any linux the method of mounting is the same, using /etc/fstab and all that.
[08:51] <epitaf-laptop> How do I add parameters to the Boot up options for the Live CD?
[08:51] <Amaranth> ubuntu and xubuntu have all the same packages
[08:51] <AMDfanboy> harisund: can we go private?  i can't keep up!
[08:51] <harisund> Can I see your /etc/fstab AMDfanboy ?
[08:51] <Ademan> (which means if xfce has a problem no they won't work, but in theory it should be fine)
[08:52] <Amaranth> the difference is what packages are installed by default
[08:52] <alienseer23> right, I'll ask later
[08:52] <corpxicle> ok im having serious problems with amarok
[08:52] <zaphod_> anyone here have experience with getting fglrx to work with an ATI card in Ubuntu
[08:52] <corpxicle> it starts, but it doesnt show on the screen
[08:52] <corpxicle> its running
[08:52] <Amaranth> zaphod_: ubuntu has prebuilt fglrx packages, do not try to compile your own
[08:52] <bruenig> corpxicle, perhaps it is minimized in the tray?
[08:52] <Amaranth> !ati
[08:52] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:53] <bruenig> has happened to me before when using kde
[08:53] <Warbo> corpxicle: Check your notification area ("system tray")
[08:53] <zaphod_> Amaranth:  I didn't.
[08:53] <corpxicle> bruenig : nope, however im not running kde
[08:53] <corpxicle> im running xfce
[08:53] <bruenig> hmmm, non native app
[08:53] <Amaranth> zaphod_: What's the problem?
[08:53] <corpxicle> so if it starts as minimized, how can i get it up ?
[08:53] <harisund> bruenig don't I know you? :)
[08:53] <zaphod_> Amaranth:  I'm getting an error:  libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file
[08:53] <corpxicle> or do i have to boot into kde and then bring it up, close it, restart into xfce and start it there ? =P
[08:53] <bruenig> corpxicle, wherever the tray is on xfce
[08:53] <Amaranth> *boggle*
[08:54] <corpxicle> also, ive uninstalled and reinstalled it
[08:54] <Warbo> corpxicle: I am assuming that the XFCE panel can have a notification area, since even Fluxbox does
[08:54] <corpxicle> syre
[08:54] <corpxicle> sure
[08:54] <Amaranth> zaphod_: That's the kind of error you get when you do a manual install. :/
[08:54] <corpxicle> but its not there
[08:54] <corpxicle> hmm
[08:54] <proselyte> I'm having trouble updating firefox, i downloaded the swiftfox.deb, but the package manager says it can only run one software management tool at a time, and it is the only visibly running software managment tool
[08:54] <Warbo> corpxicle: If it's not in there then it musn't be running properly
[08:54] <olliek> what is the difference between normal login and recovery mode?
[08:54] <Amaranth> zaphod_: I dunno how to fix in dapper, actually. The package names changed between dapper and edgy.
[08:54] <tsdgeos> hi
[08:54] <bruenig> proselyte, no update manager or synaptic?
[08:54] <corpxicle> i jsut realised there must be some file in .kde or .amarok that decides how it starts
[08:54] <tsdgeos> where does one post wishes for ubuntu?
[08:54] <zaphod_> Amaranth: I have libGL.so.1.2 installed.   Any way to make it use that?
[08:54] <proselyte> not running visibly
[08:54] <tsdgeos> malone seems to be only for bugs
[08:54] <corpxicle> ill look around
[08:55] <bruenig> proselyte, also what do you mean, you are updating firefox by downloading the swiftfox deb, that doesn't make sense
[08:55] <Warbo> olliek: If you boot to recovery mode then you get dumped to a text console. Loggin in safe made turns off all custom login programs, and failsafe terminal gives you a terminal
[08:55] <Amaranth> zaphod_: I dunno.
[08:55] <proselyte> wait, how should i update firefox?
[08:55] <Warbo> tsdgeos: Maybe wiki.ubuntu.com (there are sections for Edgy ideas)
[08:55] <zaphod_> Amaranth: Okay.  thanks
[08:55] <proselyte> and should i use swiftfo
[08:55] <proselyte> swiftfox
[08:56] <bruenig> proselyte, swiftfox is a totally different browser, it runs similarly and can run all the same extension and themes and such, it is just optimized for one's own processor
[08:56] <Amaranth> zaphod_: If my edgy system wasn't currently missing pieces I could tell you what package is supposed to have libGL.so.1
[08:56] <Amaranth> zaphod_: Is this a game that wants this file?
[08:56] <proselyte> so... shouldn't i use that instead...?
[08:56] <bruenig> swiftfox is fine, but it is not an update to firefox perse
[08:56] <olliek> Warbo: I have a problem that only occurs in normal mode.  How can I pinpoint what is causing the problem
[08:56] <zaphod_> Amaranth:  No.  flgrxinfo wants it
[08:56] <bruenig> proselyte, you can use it, I used it for a while, didn't see all that much of a difference
[08:57] <erUSUL> zaphod_: you can make a link 'ln -s libGL.so.1.2 libGL.so.1' and run ldconfig
[08:57] <proselyte> well, then, swiftfox doesn't install
[08:57] <proselyte> and im not exactly sure how to really update firefox
[08:57] <bruenig> proselyte, well, try restarting that should make sure all the package managers aren't running
[08:57] <zaphod_> erUSUL:  Okay.  I'll try that
[08:57] <Warbo> olliek: That is REALLY generic. You would have to run safe mode then try starting each application which would normally run in a session individually
[08:58] <bruenig> proselyte, firefox will update automatically once it is put in the repositories, you can run the one from the firefox website if you absolutely must have it, but generally I just wait for the update from the repos
[08:59] <proselyte> how do you access the repositories?
[08:59] <imre> s
[08:59] <Spec> !repositories
[08:59] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[08:59] <zaphod_> erUSUL: ldconfig says I can't link them.
[08:59] <Warbo> proselyte: Either use a package manager (see !synaptic) or packages.ubuntu.com
[09:00] <olliek> Warbo: My problem is that my internet crashes (any browser/limewire etc) in normal mode but not recovery.  So how could I find out what is causing that?
[09:00] <AskHL> The sound recorder says: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings.
[09:00] <AskHL> But where are the multimedia settings ?
[09:00] <AskHL> (using Dapper)
[09:01] <Warbo> olliek: I wouldn't know. It may be something system-level like IPv6, or maybe just dodgy settings (my Gecko rendering crashed when I gave it a TrueType font and I ended up making a new account to get rid of EVERY possibility)
[09:02] <proselyte> E: The package swiftfox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[09:02] <proselyte> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[09:02] <proselyte> i think that may relate to my problem
[09:02] <bruenig> proselyte, how did you try to install it?
[09:02] <Warbo> !info swiftfox
[09:02] <ubotu> Package swiftfox does not exist in dapper
[09:02] <Jamminpotato> s6o5m8f
[09:02] <bruenig> swiftfox isn't in the repos
[09:02] <Jamminpotato> wrong box
[09:02] <Warbo> proselyte: OK, you should probably purge the package then reinstall it as a standalone .deb file
[09:03] <linuxuyuyuy> hi! im in a hurry!! altgr key is not working! ive tried many combinations under system pref.. keyboard
[09:03] <proselyte> how do i do that?
[09:03] <linuxuyuyuy> im using 5.10
[09:03] <zaphod_> lol  Guess it's time to reinstall again
[09:03] <Warbo> proselyte: Do you have a .deb file of it that you downloaded somewhere?
[09:03] <proselyte> yes
[09:03] <olliek> Warbo: ok cheers.  It's driving me mad, I can get compiz and everything else to work but if my browser crashes every 2 minutes it makes it all worthless!
[09:03] <linuxuyuyuy> my keyboard is a logithech internet keyboard (language spanish)
[09:03] <harisund> Does anybody know of a bug in Ubiquity installer? I try to change my time it loads up the screen saver???????
[09:03] <Warbo> proselyte: OK, then go in Synaptic and find the swiftfox package, then "Mark for complete removal" and Apply, then reinstall the .deb (usually double click on it)
[09:04] <Jamminpotato> where can i find x11.conf?
[09:04] <AskHL> So does no one know where I can configure "multimedia settings"? In Breezy there was a utility...
[09:04] <proselyte> i cant really access synaptic
[09:04] <epitaf-laptop> i'm on an AMD Athlon XP-A, 1100 MHz. Should I get the i386 or the AMD64 install?
[09:04] <proselyte> i get this error message
[09:04] <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 and hald is up,  please I search google and didn't anything useful - at least tell me where can i find some info about it
[09:04] <proselyte> E: The package swiftfox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[09:04] <proselyte> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[09:04] <Warbo> olliek: I found Compiz worked well on my Nvidia, but now I have an ATI which is twice as powerful, but it runs awfully (probably since the DRI driver uses software for alpha stuff)
[09:05] <Khamael> what is swiftfox?
[09:05] <Jamminpotato> anyone know wher the x11.conf file is?
[09:05] <Warbo> proselyte: You can use "sudo dpkg -r swiftfox" (but that won't remove configs, but may fix Synaptic so you can completely remove it later)
[09:05] <skroll> Has anyone managed to use Compiz with Aiglx on an i915GM video adapter without scrolling/resizing slowing down?
[09:05] <bruenig> proselyte, this may not be true but because swiftfox depends on firefox for some of its stuff, uses most of the settings and such, if you don't have compatible versions of swiftfox and firefox, it may not work, I can't say this for sure but I know the swiftfox version on the swiftfox website is 1.5.06 and I believe the firefox that has last been updated in the repos is 1.5.03
[09:05] <jaakkos> does someone have an idea why the default sound-card changer does not work in system -> preferences -> sound? it is always changed back to the 0-device when i re-open the dialog. now i have to change it at /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and restart alsa which is kind of a pita.
[09:05] <Warbo> Jamminpotato: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:06] <Jamminpotato> thanks Warbo
[09:06] <Warbo> Khamael: Swiftfox is Firefox with "social bookmarking" (one of those new buzz words)
[09:06] <proselyte> thats correct
[09:06] <proselyte> so i have to update ff first
[09:06] <proselyte> but, how to i purge the update manager
[09:07] <proselyte> i tried to reload the packages, and i got:
[09:07] <proselyte> E: The package swiftfox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[09:07] <proselyte> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[09:07] <proselyte> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[09:07] <bruenig> swiftfox has nothing to do with social bookmarking, it is firefox optimized for each processor
[09:07] <Warbo> Oh? Well I don't use it either way
[09:07] <olliek> Warbo: I got ATI as well.  Compiz works ok and impressed my kids but without a reliable way of browsing they went back to windows!
[09:08] <sethk> what is social bookmarking?  sounds like marxist programming to me  :)
[09:08] <bruenig> yeah it has like 50 different versions for each specific processor
[09:08] <Warbo> olliek: Get rid of Compiz! Aaaa!
[09:08] <kmh> jrib :2nd method seems to work - thanks
[09:08] <Warbo> :)
[09:08] <proselyte> dpkg: error processing swiftfox (--remove):

[09:08] <proselyte>  reinstall it before attempting a removal.

[09:08] <jrib> kmh: great
[09:08] <bruenig> or rather 13, I was close
[09:08] <olliek> Warbo:
[09:08] <Warbo> proselyte: That seems to be an endless loop....
[09:08] <Amaranth> proselyte: This is why you don't use automatix.
[09:08] <sethk> proselyte, use the linux version from the mozilla.org site.  it works perfectly in ubuntu
[09:08] <bruenig> proselyte, not that it would work now, but I am pretty sure automatix installs swiftfox for you
[09:08] <bruenig> ior
[09:08] <bruenig> um
[09:09] <olliek> Warbo: I have done. And reinstalled
[09:09] <proselyte> whats automatix?

[09:09] <bruenig> automatix is a cuss word in #ubuntu
[09:09] <proselyte> but, will that help me remove the messed up swiftfox install i did
[09:09] <sharperguy> what about easy ubuntu?
[09:10] <bruenig> no, it probably wouldn't work now, but you know, just a thought
[09:10] <sharperguy> !easyubuntu
[09:10] <ubotu> EasyUbuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ ; for help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[09:10] <Warbo> automatix and easy-ubuntu both use APT, so if Dpkg isn't working I doubt they would help
[09:10] <sharperguy> how comes my gnomebaker wont work?#
[09:10] <proselyte> how to i fix the botched swiftfox?
[09:10] <sethk> proselyte, the install from mozilla.org is simply a tarball.  you extract it into a directory, run ./firefox in that directory, and you are done
[09:10] <sharperguy> GThread-ERROR **: GThread system may only be initialized once.
[09:11] <bruenig> proselyte, I will try to install swiftfox now to see if I can do it, but easy-ubuntu only does codecs and the like
[09:11] <Amaranth> proselyte: you'll have to find the swiftfox deb that you using to install to begin with and try to install it again
[09:11] <sethk> sharperguy, the thread only once error shouldn't stop anything from working
[09:11] <sharperguy> thats just trying to run it
[09:11] <sharperguy> well it dosnt open
[09:11] <Amaranth> sharperguy: edgy?
[09:11] <sharperguy> dapper
[09:12] <bruenig> proselyte, why even use the .deb, get the tar.bz2, there is no installation that way. All you have to do is unzip it and then use the executable called swiftfox
[09:12] <sharperguy> gnomebaker used to work before

[09:12] <donrosin>  ? ?? wtf? It was when i ./configure my eggdrop? Do i ned a program?
[09:13] <Seveas> donrosin, just install the eggdrop package
[09:13] <sharperguy> I cant see how if it works for everyone else, and used to work for me
[09:13] <sharperguy> its not some config problem or whatnot?
[09:13] <donrosin> seveas what is the command?
[09:13] <skroll> Has anyone managed to use Compiz with Aiglx on an i915 video adapter without scrolling/resizing slowing down?
[09:13] <Warbo> If eggdrop is in Ubuntu then "sudo apt-get build-dep eggdrop" will get everything needed to compile it
[09:13] <Amaranth> sharperguy: Doesn't look like a config problem, no.
[09:13] <Seveas> donrosin, apt-get install eggdrop
[09:13] <sharperguy> what other program to you recommend in the meantime?
[09:13] <sharperguy> dont mind if its qt

[09:33] <cached> when I try to set the default source in gstreamer to ALSA, I get this error: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture'.   What does that mean?
[09:33] <squidgy> Hi.  For a reason I don't understand, many of my fonts (Monospace and Sans, in particular) suddenly look different than normal.  (Perhaps due to updated packages?)  Any ideas on how to debug?
[09:33] <cached> Better question: what should I do about that?
[09:34] <_tcc> Anyone know why compiz might not be working?
[09:34] <erUSUL> cached: are you sure your sound card is correctly configured? try 'aplay /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav'
[09:34] <Warbo> _tcc: Because it is still early in development maybe?
[09:34] <erUSUL> _tcc: #ubuntu-xgl
[09:34] <_tcc> I put my error up there
[09:34] <ynef> squidgy: in what way do they look different?
[09:34] <cached> erUSUL, I hear a ringing sound
[09:35] <Warbo> Pango usually renders text, maybe that has changed?
[09:35] <squidgy> ynef:  they appear unevenly rendered, and slightly different sizes, as if perhaps hinting or some other aspect of rendering has gone south.  Example: capital A in Sans looks vaguely bolded, as does lower-case y.
[09:36] <jaakkos> i had problems with amarok and sound in 6.06 - i had to apt-get install libmad0 and libxine-extracodecs. maybe this should be added to http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28amaroK.29 ?
[09:36] <jaakkos> hmm
[09:36] <ynef> squidgy: have you installed any updated packages from anywhere else than the official repos?
[09:36] <jaakkos> well the problem was mp3-playback so as a restricted format it doesn't fit there i guess
[09:36] <Warbo> jaakkos: The problem with ubuntuguide is the very fact that it can't be changed. The official Ubuntu help sites (like help.ubuntu.com/community) can be chaged by anyone
[09:36] <chaddwicckka> how do I get Ubuntu to recognize my built in ethernet card? I am using a blue and white G3 powerpc, and am not quite sure if there is somthing I am not doing or if there is a specific path I need, I am new to linux
[09:37] <scheuri> hi all
[09:37] <jaakkos> okay
[09:37] <ynef> scheuri: hi
[09:37] <workin> <- needs help
[09:37] <scheuri> anyone experienced a problem with a logitech USB-Keyboard not working when booting with Ubuntu 6.06 Alternate?
[09:37] <boudahxl> no sound on PomerMac G4/733 internal speaker, is this normal?
[09:37] <squidgy> ynef:  (it's irritatingly ugly.)  I do have several non-official repos, and if they've caused the problem then I'm happy to abandon them.  I'm just not sure how to proceed to see what's been updated recently and where they came from.
[09:37] <erUSUL> cached: so your sound card is ok and working... you said that gstreamer-properties fails when you try to set it to use alsa, dind't you?
[09:38] <cached> erUSUL, yes
[09:38] <zyclop> workin: need help with what?
[09:38] <ynef> squidgy: are you running xgl?
[09:38] <khobar> hmm found out what my sound c and managed to reach this site: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Cirrus+Logic&card=.&chip=CS4280%2C+CS4610%2C+CS4612%2C+CS4614%2C+CS4615%2C+CS4622%2C+CS4624%2C+CS4630&module=cs46xx
[09:38] <khobar> from where i shall now download the "driver" ?
[09:38] <xyr|x> !gcc
[09:38] <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!)
[09:38] <workin> how do I play music? lol
[09:38] <workin> I put in a CD and nothing happens
[09:38] <xyr|x> !packages gcc
[09:38] <bruenig> !packages
[09:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about packages gcc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:38] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com  -  Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[09:39] <workin> I got toxfmedia but i cant play it
[09:39] <erUSUL> cached: what was the error msg? use a pastebin
[09:39] <ynef> squidgy: the reason I ask is that I was considering running it (today, actually) and stopped once I saw that it wanted to update libfreetype and pango and other important packages -- no thanks
[09:39] <squidgy> ynef:  I have xgl/compiz installed, and the corresponding repos, but I'm not running it at the moment.  It's probable that any new updates came from those repos, though.
[09:39] <workin> I'm using xubuntu...
[09:39] <workin> but no one is ever at the xubuntu chat
[09:39] <Warbo> workin: XFCE? I don't know, maybe start a CD playing program (gnome-volume-manager takes care of it for me)
[09:39] <bruenig> for people using xfce, the irc takes up too many resources :D
[09:40] <richiefrich> what apps are there to view webcams in yahoo
[09:40] <Warbo> workin: Be aware that many CD players use the CD drive's audio output, so the cable should be connected to the soundcard (or plug some speakers in to the CDROM)
[09:40] <workin> how do i get to gnome volume manager?
[09:40] <ynef> squidgy: then it's what I "feared" -- can't help you in any useful way :( have you tried restarting since the update? perhaps the updated libraries didn't manage to fully load the fonts or something (stabbing in the dark)
[09:40] <workin> I'm using a laptop
[09:40] <Warbo> OK, it should be set up already then
[09:41] <workin> yeha... but I put the CD in and nothing happens.. I don't know how to play it
[09:41] <pequatre> workin, try downloading a player such as totem or vlc
[09:41] <cached> erUSUL, http://pastebin.ca/136563
[09:41] <JonBoon> i need help with installing wine, i've downloaded the package from the manager, what do i have to do now?
[09:42] <Warbo> JonBoon: If you used Synaptic or someting then it is up and running. Double click on a .exe file to run it
[09:42] <pequatre> workin, go in synaptic and search for cd player :)
[09:42] <squidgy> ynef:  Yes, restarting X didn't work, and neither did bouncing the whole system.  If I remove the offending repos, is there a way to roll-back to the official versions of those libs in the official repos?
[09:42] <Yc1> !nfs
[09:42] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:42] <JonBoon> where would the exe file be located? yes i used synaptic
[09:42] <zyclop> !NIC
[09:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about NIC - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:42] <pequatre> workin, or load xfmedia and try to load it from there ?
[09:43] <khobar> if i want to configure my sound card acording to instructions , shall i only download atest alsa-driver .tar.bz2 or something more?
[09:43] <Warbo> JonBoon: The ".exe file" is the Windows program that you want to run. Eg. firefox.exe or something
[09:43] <JonBoon> oh so it will auto run when i do that
[09:43] <workin> thank you
[09:43] <Dattasmoon> does anyone know a chatroom for bind(9) for ubuntu?
[09:44] <pequatre> Jonbo, you need to type "wine yourfile.exe" in the command line
[09:44] <ynef> squidgy: I think that it would be possible, since synaptic (and other dpkg tools, of course) provides a way to install whatever versions it finds, however, I doubt it'll be pretty. Odds are that you're not the only one having this problem and it will be fixed shortly, though! Do you have weird DPI settings, btw?
[09:44] <pequatre> Jonbo, but you need to run "winecfg" first
[09:44] <Warbo> I htink binfmt should be set up automatically for WINE, like it was last time I used Fedora
[09:44] <warlock__> I need help with pureftpd, It seems like its shutting down sometimes. How do I make it stay up all the time, even if I reboot?
[09:45] <khobar> hello? so how aboyt those drivers?
[09:45] <TVFAR> warlock__: anything special in the logs?
[09:45] <warlock__> well, wheres the logs mana?
[09:45] <warlock__> man *
[09:45] <TVFAR> /var/log/messagers
[09:45] <TVFAR> sorry
[09:45] <squidgy> ynef:  dunno about the DPI settings.  The only unusual thing about this laptop is that its screen is 1440x900, but I've never done any hand tweaking of X settings or the like.
[09:45] <warlock__> /var/log/pureftpd
[09:45] <TVFAR> /var/log/messages
[09:45] <warlock__> ?
[09:45] <warlock__> ok
[09:46] <nikin> hy i need the value for the grub "vga=" param for 1280x854
[09:46] <nikin> any color depth will do
[09:46] <ynef> squidgy: I'm not using my own computer ATM, but I think the command to check is "xdpy"-something -- try the tab-completion to find out
[09:46] <TVFAR> or, it may be something like /var/log/xtlog or /var/log/tarnsferlog   I dont remember exactly
[09:47] <workin> how do I open a program from the  synaptic?
[09:47] <warlock__> ok TVFAR, can we take this in #pure.help please?
[09:47] <zyclop> workin: could you please clarify your question?
[09:48] <cached> well because erusul isn't responding
[09:48] <cached> when I try to set the default source in gstreamer to ALSA, I get this error: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture'.   What does that mean?
[09:48] <Warbo> workin: It installs it in /usr/bin, which is in the PATH variable. That ,eans you just need to type it's name into a terminal (or give it a nice button)
[09:48] <Warbo> *means
[09:48] <ynef> workin: often, you just need to type the program's name in a terminal window or in the entry box you get when you hit Alt-F2
[09:48] <ynef> workin: ...unless it has showed up in the Applications menu
[09:48] <Warbo> workin is in XFCE
[09:49] <squidgy> ynef:  It's xdpyinfo.  Thanks.  The relevant line seems to be "resolution:    98x99 dots per inch"
[09:49] <ynef> Warbo, workin: my mistake
[09:49] <ynef> squidgy: that sounds like something that would mess up the fonts a bit
[09:50] <fliper> you are speak brazilian
[09:50] <Warbo> !br
[09:50] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[09:50] <erUSUL> cached: sorry for the delay.  does it not spit any other error msg in the terminal?
[09:50] <ynef> squidgy: as you've probably found using google yourself, http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html is a useful site
[09:50] <cached> erUSUL, none
[09:51] <squidgy> ynef:  you mean the fact that these aren't nice round numbers?  Yeah, I it does look a bit odd, though I haven't knowingly messed with any of this.  Does this imply that I need to edit xorg.conf to set these manually?  (I hadn't googled the DPI link yet.  thanks.)
[09:52] <epitaf-laptop> hello, can someone please help me out?
[09:52] <erUSUL> cached: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-alsa
[09:52] <ynef> squidgy: yeah, they should at least be equal -- for my system, ubuntu made the default 112x112 which looks nice. I don't really think that this is your problem, but it might be a step in the right direction
[09:53] <haresltd> does anyone here have experience with setting a dialup isp in ubuntu 5.10 ?
[09:53] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, just ask your question first
[09:53] <epitaf-laptop> i am trying to install ubuntu from the alternate install, and when i chose which disk to use (i have two) it just stops, nothing happens, just blue
[09:53] <Warbo> haresltd: Yes, I do
[09:53] <Warbo> Well, I have set up a dialup connection TO an ISP. I don't own my own ISP....
[09:53] <squidgy> ynef:  I'll give it a try, and just hang in there waiting for fixed rendering libraries, assuming that's the real problem.  Many thanks.
[09:53] <haresltd> i am trying to connect to my isp, but when i connect to my isp it kicks me out as soon as it makes the connection
[09:54] <cached> erUSUL, which repo is that in?
[09:54] <Flannel> epitaf-laptop: Try burning the ISO slower, 4x is recommended.  And, make sure the checksum is right on the iso
[09:54] <amarillion> epitaf-laptop, do you have the newest ubuntu 6.06.1 release?
[09:54] <Warbo> haresltd: What program are you using to connect?
[09:54] <ynef> squidgy: you're welcome, sorry I couldn't be of more help at the moment :)
[09:54] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, what are the letters for your HDD ? hda or hde or ....?
[09:54] <haresltd> gnome ppp
[09:54] <epitaf-laptop> amarillion, yes
[09:54] <Warbo> haresltd: OK, so what does the log say?
[09:54] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, hm i cant see that...its just blue
[09:54] <UKMatt> is there a way to turn off the arrows from comming up when you use the program menu
[09:55] <epitaf-laptop> i'll have to restart the instasll
[09:55] <erUSUL> !info gstreamer0.10-alsa
[09:55] <ubotu> Package gstreamer010-alsa does not exist in dapper
[09:55] <pyd> OpenOffice is constantly crashing on me.  I was going to uninstall it and then reinstall it from scratch.  When I go to uninstall, it says it is going to remove ubuntu-desktop also.  Is this safe?  Can I uninstall the ubuntu-desktop and then reinstall it again in a few minutes, or am I risking a broken system?
[09:55] <Ych_> if I set an LAN IP with ifconfig will it stay after I reboot??
[09:55] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, just before it's blue
[09:55] <smog> hi everybody how i can in ubuntu check my ip adress??
[09:55] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, yes i will have a look
[09:55] <zyclop> Ych_ short answer: no
[09:56] <pyd> smog: ifconfig and/or whatismyip.com
[09:56] <Ych_> so how do i make it stay then?
[09:56] <Ych_> from a console
[09:56] <ynef> pyd: removing ubuntu-desktop should be fine, since it's just a package that depends on a lot of applications -- but isn't there an option to reinstall open-office?
[09:56] <kgeffert> pyd: you'll probably be fine.. ubuntu-desktop is a meta package which depends on a lot
[09:56] <haresltd> Warbo: The PPP daemon has died. (exit code = 19)
[09:56] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, because there might be a bug where ubuntu doesn't properly recognizes the drives

[09:56] <ubotu> Package gstreamer010-alsa does not exist in dapper
[09:56] <zyclop> Ych_ you'll have to edit a config file

[09:56] <Warbo> haresltd: Hmm, that sounds unfamiliar. Are you using a serial modem?
[09:56] <zyclop> I'll look up, wich one
[09:56] <UKMatt> yeah gstreamer got changed to something new i remember that

[09:57] <haresltd> nope, its a pci intel 536ep
[09:57] <Warbo> I think ubotu doesn't like dots
[09:57] <haresltd> it says maybe bad username or password... but the username and password work when i dial it in winblows

[09:57] <pyd> smog: if you are trying to get your internal network IP, type ifconfig (or iwconfig) in the terminal.  If you want to see your public IP go to whatismyip.com
[09:57] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, you mean during the install or for the live-session ?
[09:57] <UKMatt> smog, ifconfig

[09:58] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, with the live cd i didnt even get to the install
[09:58] <Warbo> haresltd: Hmm, I have tried a few internal modems. They all eventually worked, but it took a lot of effort and I haven't encountered yours sorry (sounds like a modem problem is the PPP daemon is dying)
[09:58] <khobar> common gys plz help ,I'm lost :(

[09:59] <Orasis1> smog: That's it - IFCONFIG
[09:59] <khobar> thx

[09:59] <Warbo> haresltd: It is probably your end, since the ppp daemon is the background process which deals with the dialup protocol (PPP)
[10:00] <amarillion> ^Ocean^, what has svgalib to do with a usb mouse?
[10:00] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, or maybe both dvds are hooked up. this is a list of my devices: WDC WD1200JB-00CRA1, WDC WD1200JB-75CRA0, Generic DVD-ROM SCSI CdRom Device, MAD DOG MD-16XDVD9A2

[10:01] <Ych_> ok
[10:01] <cica> Cheers Warbo: so would that be apt-get install flash?
[10:01] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, maybe at first you should try and test the cd itself and your ram: there's a memory test and a cd-integrity test available among the boot options
[10:01] <zyclop> Ych_: I once ruined my bot that way. hehe
[10:01] <zyclop> *box

[10:01] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, i will do that right away
[10:02] <Ych_> zychlop, so basically i just add the options that i added to the end of ifconfig to the end of the file instead?

[10:06] <athlon> Flannel: ahh,thanks. I didnt find  it in the applet list. So I thought it was not installed but maybe its because I disabled it through sysv config

[10:07] <Warbo> antox: Make sure you use swapoff first
[10:07] <david_> hello, can someone help me fix my apt?  It will not let me install many libraries, for instance, gnome-terminal and rar.  Because of this and some other source of corruption (perhaps its the same cause?), my gnome has basically died
[10:08] <Warbo> antox: You would probably destroy everything on it after resizing, so just "sudo swapoff /dev/devicename" then resize it then "sudo mkswap /dev/devicename" and finally "sudo swapon /dev/devicename"
[10:08] <antox> Warbo: then just parted and swapon?

[10:11] <antox> Warbo: does this mean that it is impossible to re-partition the only block device, from which system is booting?
[10:11] <nathanial> epitaf-laptop, is this in synaptic package?
[10:11] <epitaf-laptop> yes
[10:11] <nathanial> thank you
[10:11] <sethk> david_, try doing apt-get update
[10:11] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop,yes
[10:11] <erUSUL> wind: you shouldn't need to do anything special
[10:11] <sethk> david_, tell me what you get
[10:11] <pequatre> well i guess
[10:11] <david_> My sources. list is equivalent to the default install one, but it has multiverse and universe added, and it has an aiglx/compiz repo added
[10:11] <epitaf-laptop> nathanial, or you could sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[10:12] <warlock__> Does anyone know how to start pureftpd when I reboot or something?
[10:12] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, ok thanks, will wait
[10:12] <sethk> david_, try apt-get update.  Probably you'll get the same thing, but try it.
[10:12] <Warbo> antox: You can repartition an active drive, just don't touch any active partitions. That means unmount anything or swapoff anything. The obvious exception is / which you cannot unmmount, so it must be resized from a LiveCD
[10:12] <david_> sethk, it hits everything but it ignores the compiz repository (media.blutkind.org dapper main aiglx)
[10:13] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, i'm not 100% sure either. it should try to make several different tests
[10:13] <sethk> david_, I doubt that is causing the problem, although I don't quite understand why it is happening.
[10:13] <antox> Warbo: thank you.
[10:13] <nathanial> epitaf-laptop, do you know if I will need any prerequisite packages?
[10:13] <epitaf-laptop> nathanial, i dont think so
[10:13] <nathanial> thanks again
[10:13] <cached> erUSUL, thanks anyways
[10:13] <wind> thanks erUSUL
[10:13] <feedback_> Hello.xD
[10:14] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, its moving inversions in different patterns
[10:14] <sethk> have you tried fixing things, such as fix broken packages  in synpatic?
[10:14] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, let it do its stuff
[10:14] <david_> sethk, might it have arisen when I ran "apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-`uname -r`" a few days ago when I broke some drivers?
[10:14] <sethk> david_, if it didn't run correctly, it's possible.  something has your package state messed up.
[10:15] <sethk> david_, I don't see a direct link to kernel source, but there may not be a direct link
[10:15] <nikin> i ame setting the grub vga= parameter but i cant find the code for 1280x854x16
[10:15] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, i will
[10:15] <sethk> david_, when something gets corrupted there isn't necessarily any logic as to what symptoms occur.
[10:15] <iqon> what is the impact of running a 386 install on a xeon system?
[10:15] <david_> sethk, I'm only too aware
[10:15] <sethk> nikin, change it to vga=ask, then it will list the potential modes for you at boot
[10:15] <sethk> nikin, what the boot, you have to hit a key to see the list
[10:15] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, if it seems ok so far you may continue to the cd-integrity check (another boot option)
[10:16] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, ok will do
[10:16] <sethk> david_, we can try things like fix broken packages in synaptic.  there are other "fix" type operations you can do at the command line with dpkg.
[10:16] <nikin> sethk: is there a way, to see what param does the ask generate?
[10:16] <david_> sethk, I just did "fix broken packages in synaptic
[10:16] <sethk> nikin, there is a key you press to see a list of available modes.
[10:16] <sethk> david_, any change?
[10:17] <neildarlow> what level in rcS.d do you folks start hdparm at?
[10:17] <david_> nope
[10:17] <nikin> sethk: and i can do a savedefoult after that, and its done?
[10:17] <noko> using Dictionary 2.14.0, port 2628 firewalled. do i have to setup a local one?
[10:18] <sethk> nikin, you can edit your menu.lst and change vga=ask to vga=whatever   whatever being the mode you want
[10:18] <johnm1019> is there a directory on ubuntu (like /usr/src/kernel) that contains the kernel source by default?
[10:18] <david_> sethk,brilliant--I just tried to ctl-alt-f7 back to X and viola!  the system hardlocks.  I am going to but off this one.
[10:18] <bbrazil> johnm1019: no, but you can install it
[10:18] <johnm1019> command?
[10:18] <david_> johnm1019, no, you need to get it somehow
[10:19] <sethk> david_, that's discouraging.
[10:19] <nikin> but i dont know this... "whatever" code
[10:19] <nikin> that is what i need
[10:19] <duaneb> what's the best dock out there?
[10:19] <david_> sethk, its not a new issue
[10:19] <david_> sethk, I have been pushing this computer to the edge for a few weeks
[10:19] <sethk> johnm1019, it is downloaded in a subdirectory of /usr/src.  You may need to install the kernel source package.
[10:19] <sethk> david_, ok
[10:19] <neildarlow> sethk: can you scan video modes with grub like you can with lilo?
[10:19] <johnm1019> sethk, thanks
[10:19] <sethk> nikin, yes, I know.  that's why you use vga=ask, and get a LIST of available codes
[10:20] <sethk> neildarlow, it isn't grub or lilo it's a kernel thing
[10:20] <david_> sethk, first dualboot, messing with grub, messing with vmware, messing with apt...everything you can touch I have touched.  More like fisted.  And now it is dead
[10:20] <nikin> that lists teh codes?
[10:20] <nikin> ahh
[10:20] <nikin> ok
[10:20] <sethk> nikin, yes
[10:20] <neildarlow> sethk: ok. then scan would help him
[10:20] <sethk> neildarlow, right.  that's what I was advising him to do.
[10:21] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, ok i cancelled the memory test at 18% (i didnt have any errors). now i just performed the cd test and it passed without errors
[10:21] <david_> johnm1019, if you still want a package command: sudo apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.27
[10:22] <billybennett> Hey guys my packages in Synaptic are messed up.. I can only see the packages I have installed and cannot go look for new ones.. Anyone have any idea?
[10:22] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, well your cd is fine, go and try to install and watch for the drives letters
[10:22] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, ok i will... but i told you the drives letters before. think they have changed?
[10:23] <CuriosCat> Howdy all
[10:23] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, well both drive letters
[10:24] <SNow> hello
[10:24] <SNow> How could I Run just a console with live cd
[10:24] <SNow> I don't need the windows system
[10:24] <zzsputnik> hello! i use debian sarge, and found on an in ubuntuwiki how to install unrar non-free with repositories-multiverse or uni... is it possible for to use those repositories too?
[10:25] <CuriosCat> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10 and for some reason, X gives me a max resolution of 1200x1024, even though I have a 1680x1050 widescreen display on this machine.
[10:25] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, ok i am at the "partition disks" sceen
[10:25] <zzsputnik>  xrandr
[10:25] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, so what are the drives ?
[10:26] <neildarlow> CuriosCat: have your monitor sync ranges at hand and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:26] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, it lists two devices IDE2 master (hdc) and IDE2 slave (hdd)
[10:26] <h3h_timo> could someone help me figure out why i have no menu bars when im running an xgl/compiz session???
[10:27] <dmglouis> is there any way to make ubuntu automatically recognize a usb card reader?
[10:27] <pequatre> epinephrine, are there dvd's drives ?
[10:27] <pequatre> sorry
[10:27] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, , are there dvd's drives ?
[10:27] <neildarlow> dmglouis: it should already but may need media inserted to do anything
[10:27] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, if have dvd drives on the computer if thats what you mean, but what i said is whats listet
[10:27] <epitaf-laptop> *listed, nothing more
[10:28] <epitaf-laptop> just the the two hard drives
[10:28] <sethk> CuriosCat, this can happen because your monitor is not correctly identified, or because the video card cannot run at that resolution.
[10:28] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, ok it may be better if the drives where plugged to IDE1 but still it should work
[10:28] <Orasis1> This is off topic but since I am in the presence of smart people, I am curious - do you think it is possible to stop your own heart mentally? :))
[10:28] <dmglouis> neildarlow:i inserted an sd card and nothing happend
[10:28] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, but in this section of the install *should* just list the hard drives, correct?
[10:28] <pequatre> epitaf-laptop, yes sorry
[10:29] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, i'll try the slave drive this time
[10:29] <pequatre> actually yes :)
[10:29] <epitaf-laptop> oh
[10:29] <kmasta> can somebody help me with my wireless woes?
[10:29] <epitaf-laptop> i got to the next screen
[10:29] <h3h_timo> could someone tell me how to fix the problem im having with xgl/compiz?? im not getting any top menu bars...
[10:29] <augustin> hello
[10:29] <Warbo> h3h_timo: As in, the window borders, or the panel?
[10:30] <neildarlow> dmglouis: is the usb-storage module loaded? if not, modprobe it and try again
[10:30] <SNow> How can I see what filesystem device is using? and how could I mount it, I do mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/test2 and it says device is busy
[10:30] <augustin> can anyone help with recovering a crashed Ext3 partition please? it's my /home directory, and is detected as "unallocated" by gparted, but the data is there, i just need to fix the table
[10:30] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, i wonder why the first disc didnt work...
[10:30] <sethk> augustin, fsck.ext3
[10:30] <erUSUL> augustin: try with gpart
[10:30] <sethk> augustin, is your first step
[10:30] <erUSUL> !info gpart
[10:30] <ubotu> gpart: Guess PC disk partition table, find lost partitions. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1h-4 (dapper), package size 34 kB, installed size 112 kB
[10:30] <augustin> i need to save the data in the partition, can't afford to lose that
[10:31] <augustin> sethk, it says something about a superblock missing
[10:31] <sethk> augustin, superblocks can be retrieved; there are redundant superblocks.
[10:31] <sethk> augustin, the partition table is correct?
[10:31] <h3h_timo> Warbo: its the entire top window panel
[10:31] <khobar> hmm sorry for being such a pain..but what does that means? I was instaling all alsa things..when something like this poped up :
[10:31] <augustin> sethk, mind if i go in PM ?
[10:31] <khobar> checking for initscr in -lcurses... no configure: error: this packages requires a curses library
[10:32] <sethk> augustin, no, I don't mind, but by staying here you'll get more answers
[10:32] <h3h_timo> Warbo: like wehre it says #ubuntu at the top up here, its not showing when i run compiz
[10:32] <khobar> it happened during ./configure of alsa utilits :/
[10:32] <augustin> sethk, ok then =] 
[10:32] <augustin> the partition table is not correct: it shows my /home partition as "unallocated"
[10:32] <neildarlow> khobar: why aren't you installing ALSA from packages?
[10:32] <augustin> there has been a mess when i reinstalled windows (dual boot), but i managed to fix everything
[10:33] <augustin> except, of course, my /home directory
[10:33] <sethk> augustin, do you know the starting and ending cylinders?
[10:33] <erUSUL> augustin: as a i said earlier you can try gpart. it guesses partitions tables and can write a new one
[10:33] <khobar> neildarlow i was instaling acrording to this instruction : http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Cirrus+Logic&card=.&chip=CS4280%2C+CS4610%2C+CS4612%2C+CS4614%2C+CS4615%2C+CS4622%2C+CS4624%2C+CS4630&module=cs46xx
[10:33] <augustin> in the meanwhile, how can i do so that it creates a temporary /home somewhere else, until i can restore the partition ?
[10:33] <khobar> was doing finr until now :/
[10:33] <augustin> erUSUL, thanks, i'll do that, as soon as i can access X... now, it's full of errors and i can't start it
[10:33] <neildarlow> khobar: ubuntu has ALSA packages
[10:34] <augustin> sethk, of my partition ? i personally don't, but it's in the middle of my disk, so i guess a partition tool would =)
[10:34] <dmglouis> I_can't_make_spaces.Can_anybody_help?
[10:34] <erUSUL> augustin: gpart is cli program does not need X. boot in recovery mode.
[10:34] <Warbo> h3h_timo: Make sure the "decoration" plugin is loaded. If the worst comes to the worst the "compiz --replace decoration" might help
[10:34] <khobar> neildarlow: well yes but those deafult can't use my sound card...i simply dob't have sound then...someone adviced me to do acroding to some site
[10:34] <sethk> augustin, you may be able to deduce it from the others.  Certainly you should be able to see the starting partition.
[10:34] <augustin> erUSUL, ok, will do =)
[10:34] <khobar> *don't
[10:34] <sethk> augustin, sorry, starting cylinder
[10:34] <h3h_timo> Warbo: what is the application to customize compiz??
[10:35] <zzsputnik> CuriosCat  xrandr shows your resolution options and u can change them with (man xrandr)... every session, i couldnt find out how to keep it that way after  reboot
[10:35] <augustin> sethk, well, yeah, using fdisk or something, right ?
[10:35] <sethk> augustin, right
[10:35] <Warbo> h3h_timo: The one I know of is gset-compiz, but I think that is out dated
[10:35] <alek> i have old motherborad with 8-pin USB socket on it. I've enabled "onchip usb" in my BIOS but Ubuntu (6.06 server) doesnt detect my pendrive. what should i do?
[10:35] <augustin> sethk, i'll try gpart and then i'll come back at you
[10:35] <RalleAb> when i open gparted the partitions are locked. how do I unlock them?
[10:35] <judah> so does anyone have gstreamer10 apps in dapper working to play aac encoded files? (ie. banshee and rhythmbox)
[10:35] <dmglouis> please_anyone?My_keyboard_just_stopped_making_spaces_just_now
[10:35] <khobar> so what than i shall do now . neildarlow?
[10:36] <ketilkn> Will compiz work with an Intel 815 GPU ?
[10:36] <neildarlow> khobar: how does snd-cs46xx.ko sound?
[10:36] <pequatre_> sorry got disconnected
[10:36] <augustin> ok, it's in an extended partition
[10:36] <antox> alek, do you see anything in dmesg output?
[10:36] <augustin> the extended partition is: start 5072 end 9729
[10:36] <khobar> neaildarlow can you state your answer again ?
[10:36] <augustin> the missing partition is the first in the extended one
[10:36] <khobar> got lost in it a bit sorry  :/
[10:36] <alek> antox, wait, ill see
[10:37] <augustin> and the second partition starts at 7031
[10:37] <dmglouis> never mind I got it working
[10:37] <duane> what's the best dock out there?
[10:37] <augustin> so i guess my partition is something like 5072-7030
[10:37] <duane> I tried gnome-dock, and I wasn't impressed :|
[10:37] <augustin> sethk, does that sound ok ?
[10:37] <neildarlow> khobar: my standard ubuntu installation has a module for your soundcard i.e. snd-cs46xx.ko
[10:37] <pequatre_> epitaf-laptop, sorry got disconnected
[10:38] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, no problem
[10:38] <jvai> hey , does cron do backups automatically on the default install?
[10:38] <h3h_timo> Warbo: i have no idea how to fix this
[10:38] <sethk> augustin, it sounds ok, sure, but I can't tell if it is correct.  Does the number of sectors * 512 equal the size of the partition?
[10:38] <augustin> i'll need a calculator for that =P
[10:38] <augustin> wait a sec
[10:38] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, so.. the installation works now when i chose the other disk
[10:38] <khobar> neaildarlow I got laptop , And was installing latest Ubuntu ...but it just can't handle my soundcard ..so i tried to install it acordnig to site i meantioned above
[10:39] <RalleAb> when i open gparted the partitions are locked. how can I unlock them?
[10:39] <pequatre_> epitaf-laptop, well strange...
[10:39] <neildarlow> khobar: i think you'll have a hard time installing ALSA manually. searching ubuntu installation FAQs should get you going quicker
[10:39] <erUSUL> RalleAb: you can not edit mounted partitions
[10:39] <ripper> HELP
[10:39] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre, yes... any ideas for tools for ubuntu to check disks?
[10:40] <erUSUL> !caps > ripper
[10:40] <pequatre_> epitaf-laptop, btw i'm pequatre_ now due to being disconnected
[10:40] <khobar> well neildarlow i just was instaling alsa ..was doing fine all acrodnig to that site..when that error poped up in alsa utlilits :/
[10:40] <alek> antox, http://phpfi.com/141782
[10:40] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre_ oh didnt see that :)
[10:40] <alek> that it
[10:40] <augustin> sethk, anyway, yeah, that's the missing space
[10:40] <YokoZar> Hmm, gaim is kicking me off of ICQ and AIM as soon as I log in.  Did AOL start autokicking Gaim users again?
[10:40] <warlock__> Does anyone know how to start pureftpd when I reboot or something?
[10:40] <augustin> sethk, problem is, fdisk -l does not return a name for this space
[10:40] <augustin> so i don't know how to refer to it
[10:40] <neildarlow> khobar: the error was caused by you not having curses and curses-dev libraries installed

[10:41] <khobar> neildarlow : can you point me how to install those?
[10:41] <augustin> "no such file or directory" to be exact

[10:41] <neildarlow> tylersmith: you have to add it manually using alacarte
[10:41] <khobar> And i trulely hope it will fix my sound card problems
[10:41] <epitaf-laptop> pequatre_  i'll repost this as maybe you didnt see it due to the new nick...any ideas for tools for ubuntu to check disks?

[10:41] <erUSUL> ripper: install ffmpeg
[10:41] <antox> alek, and when you insert your usbstick? does anything happen?
[10:41] <YokoZar> warlock__: what's the error?
[10:41] <Spec> epinephrine: yes
[10:42] <Spec> epitaf-laptop: yes
[10:42] <tylersmith> neildarlow: Thanks! What is alacarte?
[10:42] <alek> antox, nothing
[10:42] <ripper> i have.
[10:42] <jvai> hey , does cron do backups automatically on the default install?
[10:42] <pequatre_> epitaf-laptop, there must be a lot of them but i know none (sorry)
[10:42] <ripper> and still get this error
[10:42] <Spec> epitaf-laptop: you're trying to test your harddrive?
[10:42] <mcphail> jvai: no
[10:42] <SNow> hey, what to do, /dev/hda5 was the root filesystem on ext3 and know it says that the filesystem is unknown and I can't mount it, what should I do ?
[10:42] <neildarlow> tylersmith: Applications|Accessories|Alacarte Menu Editor
[10:42] <jvai> ok
[10:42] <antox> alek, do any other devices work, when attached to those ports?
[10:42] <erUSUL> ripper: Please install the above MISSING dependencies, *run 'tovid -refresh-deps',* can you read?
[10:42] <Spec> epitaf-laptop: http://dc.ubuntu-us.org/wiki/HDTest
[10:42] <epitaf-laptop> Spec, I had trouble installing to one of my hard drives. I'm now installing to the second one, and I want to test the one that didnt work when i am in ubuntu
[10:42] <mcphail> jvai: but it is easily enough done
[10:43] <warlock__> YokoZar, can you join #pure.help ? I'll explain
[10:43] <sethk> augustin, if the fourth primary partition isn't specified in the partition table, then it will get a "device not found"
[10:43] <tylersmith> neildarlow: Many Thanks!!!!
[10:43] <epitaf-laptop> Spec, Thanks a lot
[10:43] <sethk> augustin, brb
[10:43] <jvai> wish i had a gui for cron.. but i'm on hoary still.. i cant config it thru the shell
[10:43] <Spec> epitaf-laptop: read the whole webpage; if there's no important data on the drive you want to test, do a destructive read/write test with badblocks, it's the best. :p
[10:43] <ripper> erUSUL yes i can read, and i have, apparently you arent reading the full messages i put  in the room i have ffmpeg installed
[10:43] <augustin> sethk, yup, but it seems obvious it's my "lost" partition standing there, with all this precious data in it =)
[10:43] <augustin> sethk, ok, i'll wait
[10:43] <khobar> neildarlow : can you plz tell me how to install those?
[10:43] <neildarlow> khobar: one moment
[10:43] <khobar> ok
[10:43] <sethk> augustin, yes, of course it is, but you'll have to change the partition table before any other software will see it, and you won't use gpart to restore it, you'll use fdisk.
[10:44] <sethk> augustin, brb
[10:44] <epitaf-laptop> Spec, perfect! i just have backed up the disk earlier today, so i will do that test with badblocks
[10:44] <ripper> erUSUL i dont appreciate having my wits insulted, im not a moron. i can use linux/BSD (i have a few *nix box's) but i cant figure out why tovid isnt pickup the fact that i have ffmpeg installed
[10:44] <mcphail> jvai: it is actually fairly easy to configure. Just have the man page open to get the timings right.
[10:44] <jvai> ooo like "man cron"?
[10:44] <erUSUL> ripper: have you runned the comand the error msg instructed you to run? 'tovid -refresh-deps' ???
[10:44] <bubu1uk> jvai: as far as i know there is gui for corn
[10:44] <alek> antox: no:(
[10:44] <ripper> yes i have.
[10:44] <bubu1uk> i think on KDE
[10:44] <jvai> whaa
[10:44] <augustin> how can i scroll up, when not in X ?
[10:44] <jvai> in the repos?
[10:44] <Spec> augustin: page up?
[10:44] <kmasta> can someone here help me with my wireless connection?
[10:45] <Spec> augustin: or shift page up
[10:45] <jvai> crontab?
[10:45] <augustin> Spec, thanks, i tried page up, but shift + page up does the trick =)
[10:45] <ripper> got it nvm.
[10:45] <ripper> thanks anyway
[10:45] <tanath> when i log in i get an error pops up saying it can't start the gnome settings daemon, and the gnome panels don't show
[10:45] <neildarlow> khobar: apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[10:45] <Spec> augustin: np
[10:45] <khobar> many thx neildarlow :D
[10:45] <kmasta> why won't my wireless connection stay activated?
[10:45] <bubu1uk> jvai: not sure if ubuntu has it. cant remember if it was called kron or kcron. basicaly "k" in begining
[10:46] <ripper> i <3 ubuntu
[10:46] <pyd> I reinstalled OpenOffice, but it's still freezing on me constantly.  CPU goes to 100% and I have to kill OpenOffice.  It is unusable.  Any ideas for a solution?
[10:46] <jvai> lol.. i thought kron was for kde....
[10:46] <tanath> ubuntu is great... when it works :P
[10:46] <kmasta> i second that motion tanath
[10:46] <bubu1uk> jvai:basicaly is.
[10:46] <jvai> i was reading that earlier on a google search about backups for linux
[10:47] <jvai> gnome doesnt have 1?
[10:47] <tanath> fortunately it tends to work until you try to do something fancy with it :P
[10:47] <ripper> anyone know of any software for ubuntu or linux in general that you can use (that comes with templates) for writing business contracts?
[10:47] <bubu1uk> jvai: cant remember. played with it just once. dont do much over gui
[10:47] <jvai> ok.. i just gotta read the man pages.. thru the shell
[10:47] <Sethwm2> Hello I was wondering where I can download the Lve CD ISO on the Ubuntu web site
[10:47] <jvai> & maybe google cron
[10:47] <augustin_> erUSUL, i've isntalled gpart, but i'm unsure as to what to do with it now... i've done a gpart -l /dev/hda and it recognized my lost partition, but it seems to have problem because some of my partitions are actually extended
[10:47] <Sethwm2> The newest one
[10:47] <linopil> ripper OpenOffice,org ?
[10:48] <corpxicle> i just did apt-get remove kde*
[10:48] <bubu1uk> jvai: have a look at gentoo wiki. found some good info there bout cron.
[10:48] <ripper> linopil how do i get the contract templates?
[10:48] <neildarlow> jvai: gcrontab
[10:48] <Sethwm2> Where can I get Ubuntu Live online
[10:48] <ripper> or the templates in general...
[10:48] <Sethwm2> On there web site
[10:48] <Sethwm2> ??
[10:48] <ripper> havent used OO that much
[10:48] <augustin_> Sethwm2, yes
[10:48] <Sethwm2> Where on the site though
[10:48] <Sethwm2> Can't find it
[10:48] <linopil> pyd how much RAM ?
[10:48] <Sethwm2> :(
[10:48] <erUSUL> augustin_: i've never used it myself. you will have to read the man page and online docs... good luck
[10:48] <kmasta> can anyone tell me why my wireless connection says activated, but as soon as i click out ot the networking box, then go back in it says its not activated
[10:48] <danny-khi> Does Pango Support in Firefox on Ubuntu dapper Enabled only for selected Locales?
[10:49] <tanath> when i log in i get an error pops up saying it can't start the gnome settings daemon, and the gnome panels don't show, so there's much i can't do
[10:49] <tanath> can anyone help?
[10:49] <alek> dmesg detected my USB socket, but no USB devide works when i plug it in
[10:49] <augustin_> erUSUL, i understand the program, what i wanted to know is WHAT exactly i'm trying to achieve =P but thanks anyway =)
[10:49] <augustin_> Sethwm2, http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[10:49] <Sethwm2> I don't know which CD to download..
[10:49] <Sethwm2> Yeah
[10:49] <Sethwm2> But which one??
[10:49] <augustin_> ok
[10:49] <linopil> kmasta strange linux thing deactivation of net card go figure
[10:50] <tanath> bah, i can't even see what time it is on my comp
[10:50] <augustin_> Sethwm2, there are two things you have to chose: the kind of install, and the platform
[10:50] <augustin_> the kind is "alternate", "desktop", "server", etc
[10:50] <kmasta> linopil: well it doesn't really let me activate the connection in the first place
[10:50] <Sethwm2> It is a Mac I want
[10:50] <Sethwm2> ...
[10:50] <Sethwm2> Live CD
[10:50] <augustin_> yeah, but what kind of version ?
[10:50] <augustin_> server, alternate, desktop ?
[10:50] <Flannel> Sethwm2: you want the PPC (unless its an x86 map) and then desktop
[10:50] <augustin_> what do you want it for ?
[10:50] <Sethwm2> Desktop
[10:50] <Noumaan> Does Pango Support in Firefox on Ubuntu dapper "Enabled only for selected Locales" ?
[10:50] <ripper> meh there is sooo much difference between ubuntu and OpenBSD , im so used to using my non-X11 BSD box
[10:50] <augustin_> so, desktop
[10:51] <Sethwm2> Ok
[10:51] <kmasta> Linopil: i keep hearing about ndiswrapper but all the tutorials I read about it assume the computer ur trying to get the wireless to work on also has a wired connection
[10:51] <augustin_> and then, powerpc
[10:51] <augustin_> and there you go =)
[10:51] <Sethwm2> But that is not the livecd
[10:51] <Sethwm2> ??
[10:51] <Sethwm2> ?
[10:51] <junmin> hi, somebody can help me with a question about fonts?? i searched file system, and can find term14.pcf.gz and termB14.pcf.gz by default, anyway, i can not find them in list of System->preferences->fonts. why?? i like these two fonts very much. please
[10:51] <Flannel> Sethwm2: yes, desktop is a liveCD
[10:51] <erUSUL> augustin_: gpart can write the partition table it guessed to the device with the -W switch
[10:51] <augustin_> install and live are one thing now, if i'm not mistaken
[10:51] <Sethwm2> Thanks
[10:51] <tanath> when i log in i get an error pops up saying it can't start the gnome settings daemon, and the gnome panels don't show, so there's much i can't do
[10:51] <tanath> can anyone help?
[10:51] <Sethwm2> I hope so
[10:51] <Sethwm2> I am going to burn it
[10:51] <augustin_> erUSUL, yeah, but it guessed a slightly wrong one, and i'd like to correct it, and i'm a bit overwhelmed by info =) but thanks for the tip, this program might save hours of work =)
[10:52] <neildarlow> tanath: maybe reinstall it in a console?
[10:52] <khobar> !paste
[10:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:52] <augustin_> Sethwm2, it definitely works as a livecd, i just am not sure there is no other truer "live cd"
[10:52] <Sethwm2> Thanks
[10:52] <tanath> hrm... didn't think of that...
[10:52] <erUSUL> augustin_: read the man page. scan the disk if the partition table it gueses is what you want you can write it to the disk 'gpart -W /dev/hdxx /dev/hdxx'
[10:52] <augustin_> but it will work as a livecd, i've been using it to try and restore my system just a couple of minutes ago =)
[10:52] <augustin_> erUSUL, i'm reading the man page as we speak =P
[10:53] <khobar> aww....
[10:54] <khobar> again ..i got some problem...: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20912
[10:54] <khobar> darn why there are so many complications  with a simple sound driver :/
[10:54] <khobar> can anyone take a look?
[10:54] <lummi> greetings all =)
[10:55] <stephans> ok so who knows anything about nfs?
[10:55] <bruenig> !offtopic > lummi
[10:55] <neildarlow> stephans: it's a network filesystem :O
[10:55] <warlock__> Does anyone know what pureftpd's package is called? trying to remove it lol :-(
[10:55] <stephans> like i totally can't acess resources two folders below teh export
[10:55] <sethk> stephans, do you have a question about it?
[10:55] <mirkk> Hmm, shouldn't there be a boot menu created automaticly when installing ubuntu? (installed it on a system that also run win2k, but it boots into win2k right away) :P
[10:56] <jonah1980> hi i'm wanting to install commercial progs on my add/remove progs list - only it goes round in circles - first i get this error: http://pastebin.ca/136682 - then it asks if i want to grant permission to commercial sources and then checks packages and then asks if i want to grant permission again and goes round and round like that! can anyone help
[10:56] <kupesoft> are there w32codecs for AMD64?  Flash?
[10:56] <neildarlow> warlock__: pure-ftpd-common and others
[10:56] <warlock__> ok, neildarlow, I got a problem
[10:56] <sethk> mirkk, yes
[10:56] <warlock__> I did a wget the package, now how do I uninstall it? :/
[10:56] <mcphail> kupesoft: no
[10:56] <warlock__> wget ftp://ftp.pureftpd.org/pub/pure-ftpd/releases/pure-ftpd-1.0.21.tar.gz <- to be exact, and now I wish to uninstall it ?
[10:57] <ripper> khobar paste a copy of your dmesg on the paste bin
[10:57] <neildarlow> warlock__: that won't have installed it. just fetched it
[10:57] <warlock__> I installed it and etc..
[10:57] <bruenig> jonah, it appears to say that you have http://archive.canonical.com dapper-commercial/main that entry twice in your sources.list
[10:57] <warlock__> I just need to know how to remove it now, totally.
[10:57] <tuxtheslacker> quick question... how can I run a command and close the ssh connection and have the command continue running?
[10:57] <neildarlow> warlock__: synaptic in advanced mode. search for pure-ftpd and select for complete removal
[10:58] <warlock__> hmm
[10:58] <mlehrer> wow, when did tab completion start working for scp commands over an scp tunnel... that rocks
[10:58] <bubu1uk> tuxtheslacker: u can use screen
[10:58] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: run ssh in a screen session
[10:58] <lummi> Ok now it is my turn =) Does anyone know where I can get a "bouncer" or is it something you have to set up yourself without any packages? What i am trying to do is to get external IPs to login via my server and then "bounce" them to an external server where only my server IP has access to? Is this possible at all?
[10:58] <warlock__> neildarlow, and how exactly do I do that?
[10:58] <lummi> tux...logout?
[10:58] <alek> antox, are you still here?
[10:58] <jonah1980> bruenig, can i paste my source list for you, i can't see it duplicated but might not be what i think
[10:58] <Number_5> tuxtux: screen
[10:58] <tuxtheslacker> mcphail, how would I run ssh in screen?
[10:58] <khobar> ripper emm...dmesg?
[10:58] <neildarlow> warlock__: Applications|Add/Remove... and click the Advanced button
[10:58] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: type "screen" in your terminal
[10:58] <warlock__> uh neildarlow, Im using ubuntu server :)
[10:58] <ohio23432> hello
[10:58] <khobar> ripper, where to find it ?
[10:58] <bubu1uk> tuxtheslacker: run sshd and then screen and then program
[10:59] <bruenig> johan1980, if you want to pastebin it go ahead
[10:59] <ohio23432> I just installed ubuntu, how do I get kde? (kubuntu)?
[10:59] <stephans> sethk: I am trying to install over nfs and pxe...
[10:59] <neildarlow> warlock__: then you'd better find an apt-get expert. i'm very rusty on ot
[10:59] <bubu1uk> tuxtheslacker: and then u can close ssh
[10:59] <warlock__> ok neildarlow, thanks anyways.
[10:59] <warlock__> ompaul, could you perhaps help me out then?
[10:59] <stephans> sethk: pxe works great and the kernel boots and setup starts...
[10:59] <jonah1980> bruenig, http://pastebin.ca/136689
[10:59] <bruenig> warlock__, what are you looking to do?
[10:59] <tuxtheslacker> thanks!
[10:59] <khobar> ok found it shall i copy whole dmsg?
[10:59] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: when you want to log out of your ssh session, press ctrl-a then D
[11:00] <augustin_> erUSUL, ok, i think i know what i wanna do, but i'm not sure how to do it (in spite of having read the man page =P)
[11:00] <augustin_> erUSUL, here's the story:
[11:00] <ohio23432> note: I have tried this command and it failed "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"
[11:00] <ompaul> warlock__, I was not looking at your question let me scroll back
[11:00] <stephans> sethk: then i need to mount the nfs share... but the server will not allow mounting of the folder two below the export
[11:00] <jonah1980> bruenig, thanks for taking a look - you're cool
[11:00] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: that will "detach" from the screen session. You can attach again later with "screen -r"
[11:00] <tuxtheslacker> mcphail, wait... so how do I detach?
[11:00] <ompaul> warlock__, "flying visit"
[11:00] <augustin_> erUSUL, i have 5 partitions. the first 2 are primary, the last 3 are logical (at least, it was that way when i had 6 partitions total, before i merged the first two primary ones).
[11:00] <neildarlow> warlock__: sorry, did you compile and install pure-ftpd?
[11:00] <warlock__> bruenig, I am trying to remove "pure-ftpd". I installed it through wget. And did a make install, etc, but I wish to reinstall it.
[11:00] <tuxtheslacker> ctrl+a?
[11:00] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: press "CTRL-A" then "D"
[11:00] <warlock__> Yes neildarlow.
[11:01] <augustin_> erUSUL, when gpart guesses, it "skips" the last partition and only returns the first 4, making them primary
[11:01] <tuxtheslacker> wait, ctrl-a, ctrld?
[11:01] <neildarlow> warlock__: then there's probably a deinstall target for make
[11:01] <warlock__> I need to reinstall it, as I did a few minor of mistakes.
[11:01] <stephans> the "os" nfs share is exported... and it contains fc4,5 suse etc...
[11:01] <ompaul> warlock__, you can't do get there from here
[11:01] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: no, just "D"
[11:01] <tuxtheslacker> oh, that worked.
[11:01] <augustin_> erUSUL, what i want to know is for gpart to write its guesses, but making the last 3 logical instead of primary
[11:01] <warlock__> ompaul, what you mean?
[11:01] <ohio23432> anyone can help me get KDE? (kubuntu)?   I tried this "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and it failed
[11:01] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: one moment - i'll find a screen tutorial
[11:02] <stephans> sethk: how can i export a folder so that all files below it are available in nfs?
[11:02] <sethk> stephans, that's the default.
[11:02] <augustin_> erUSUL, the only thing is: since it doesn't return a valid result for the last partition, i don't know the output to use (like, the plethora of figures after the partition type)
[11:02] <Number_5> tuxtheslacker: screen is the most useful utility for command line
[11:02] <aluno> como instalar pacotes
[11:02] <sethk> stephans, are you sure it isn't just a permissions issue?
[11:02] <tuxtheslacker> Number_5, thanks!
[11:02] <bruenig> jonah1980, the part of the error on the other pastebin doesn't appear to be anything however this entry  deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper multiverse universe restricted main  is four sources if you look at the four lines above it, they are the same so perhaps if you deleted this one or the four above it, there wouldn't be a duplicate sources error
[11:02] <tuxtheslacker> thanks everyone!
[11:02] <augustin_> erUSUL, any clue or should i just leave you alone ? =)
[11:02] <warlock__> I only need to remove pure-ftpd, to install it from -scratch- again. Anyone have ANY clues regarding this issue?
[11:02] <stephans> sethk: how can i turn this wonderful feature off?
[11:02] <ompaul> warlock__, you have to make uninstall
[11:02] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/34
[11:02] <sethk> stephans, which feature, the permissions?
[11:03] <ompaul> warlock__, apt works on packages it installs or ones you use "checkinstall" on
[11:03] <stephans> nope nfs
[11:03] <warlock__> ompaul, and how exactyl do I do this?.
[11:03] <junmin> hi, somebody can help me with a question about fonts?? i searched file system, and can find term14.pcf.gz and termB14.pcf.gz by default, anyway, i can not find them in list of System->preferences->fonts. why?? i like these two fonts very much. please
[11:03] <Number_5> warlock__: it's handy to use apt-get to install all packages possible
[11:03] <warlock__> ompaul, I'm still kinda new to ubuntu. Atleast on these synaptic things.
[11:03] <bruenig> jonah1980, nevermind I just looked at again, those are deb-src entries
[11:03] <stephans> sethk: the perms are all read... but sthe server says:
[11:03] <sethk> stephans, you want to uninstall nfs?
[11:03] <tuxtheslacker> mcphail, this is actually for an rhel server, but the topic was pretty distro independant.
[11:03] <warlock__> Number_5, pure-ftpd wasnt available.
[11:03] <ompaul> warlock__, go to where ever you put your sources you need to go back there and make uninstall
[11:03] <sethk> stephans, make sure you have the x permissions on directories
[11:03] <ompaul> warlock__,  the same way as you installed it
[11:04] <Number_5> warlock__: it's in the universe repos
[11:04] <sethk> you can try the no_subtree_check option as well.
[11:04] <argunda> anyone can help me get KDE? (kubuntu)?   I tried this "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and it failed
[11:04] <mcphail> tuxtheslacker: that tutorial will work on RHEL as well
[11:04] <bruenig> looks like it should work, I hardly ever deal with the graphical install stuff like synaptic or add/remove, generally just go with apt-get, does apt-get work or is this just a problem with add/remove
[11:04] <tuxtheslacker> mcphail, figured.
[11:04] <tuxtheslacker> thanks!
[11:04] <warlock__> ok, Number_5.
[11:04] <alek> i have USB socket on my old MB, dmesg detected it but ubuntu doesnt detect, when i plug in any usbdevice. could anyone help me?
[11:04] <warlock__> ompaul, let me take a look
[11:04] <tuxtheslacker> See ya guys later! gotta go home now :-)

[11:04] <ompaul> warlock__, I had the bot send you two messages there
[11:05] <warlock__> to a good one. I cant seem to find the packages from where I installed it ompaul :(
[11:05] <warlock__> Aye I see.
[11:05] <Valery> Hello!
[11:05] <Valery> How install Dapper server on raid FastTrack TX2!

[11:05] <neildarlow> alek: older USB ports were notorious for that. might be a new motherboard or usb card required

[11:05] <alek> :(
[11:05] <neildarlow> alek; is it a VIA-base motherboard?
[11:05] <stephans> sethk:that was from /var/log/messages
[11:05] <warlock__> ompaul, Im only experincing troubles with one thing with pure-ftpd. It wont run when I reboot my server.
[11:06] <ompaul> warlock__, that is easy to fix
[11:06] <warlock__> OK, can you help me out ompaul ?
[11:06] <jvai> hey back..
[11:06] <sethk> stephans, ok, that's not a problem.
[11:06] <stephans> sethk:nfs does not want me to access files below the actual export...
[11:06] <warlock__> Really taking the piss out of me.

[11:06] <argunda> anyone can help me get KDE? (kubuntu)?   I tried this "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and it failed
[11:07] <warlock__> :-(
[11:07] <Flannel> argunda: that's the command.  Do you have web repositories enabled?  What error did it give?
[11:07] <khobar> argunda try add sudo before it :P
[11:07] <khobar> and repositores
[11:07] <alek> neildarlow, yes it is VIA based MB
[11:07] <argunda> E: Couldn't find package kubuntu-desktop
[11:07] <warlock__> sorry ompaul, can we continue ?
[11:07] <argunda> Flannel: how do I do that?
[11:07] <ompaul> warlock__, yues
[11:07] <Flannel> !tell argunda about repositories
[11:07] <neildarlow> alek: thought so. a new one might be the only solution
[11:07] <sethk> stephans, no, that's not true.
[11:07] <ompaul> warlock__, I am wondering what is best for you - to kill the binary and install the one that Ubuntu manages
[11:08] <sethk> stephans, at least that message doesn't imply that.
[11:08] <warlock__> That sounds good.
[11:08] <stephans> sethk: what is going on the?
[11:08] <warlock__> As I -might- wish to uninstall it EASILY in the future.
[11:08] <ompaul> warlock__, well there are ways of doing this that make sense
[11:08] <stephans> sethk: then?
[11:08] <alek> neildarlow, that problem is because of ubuntu or motherborad?
[11:08] <ompaul> warlock__, let me see what an installed proftpd looks like back in two

[11:10] <khobar> argg....
[11:10] <neildarlow> alek: the problem is usually powering a peripheral from the USB port. a peripheral with its own power supply *might* work
[11:10] <khobar> can any one tell me what shall i do now ? :(
[11:10] <khobar> i got enought of this..so many erros and stuff :/
[11:10] <ripper> khobar looks like a problem with the card, is it using an AC-97 based card?
[11:11] <Noumaan> Does Pango Support in Firefox on Ubuntu dapper "Enabled only for selected Locales" ?
[11:11] <l0fty> does anyone know exactly why mp3 and other formats aren't in standard ubuntu and where I should ask to find out more about this?
[11:11] <ketilkn> khobar, have a beer.
[11:11] <neildarlow> khobar: google for your problem e.g. ubuntu ALSA cs46xx and go from there
[11:11] <slicslak> where does mysql keep it's databases?
[11:11] <neildarlow> slicslak: /var/lob/mysql

[11:11] <Noumaan> Restricted Formats
[11:11] <m0> hey
[11:12] <l0fty> on the wiki?
[11:12] <alek> neildarlow, thanks for help :)
[11:12] <sethk> khobar, from your post it looks like the module is not built for that kernel
[11:12] <khobar> hmm i got data from aida32 : Cirrus Logic CS4610 SoundFussion Auido Accelerator
[11:12] <Noumaan> l0fty: yes
[11:12] <slicslak> ketilkn, neildarlow thx
[11:12] <m0> What is a good FTP CLIENT so I could transfer stuff
[11:12] <l0fty> I know how to install them - I'm just thinking if there are things that ordinary users can do to get the legal situation changed?
[11:12] <m0> can I apt-get a FTP CLIENT?
[11:12] <neildarlow> sethk: the standard ubuntu kernels have the module he needs. it's a detection/configuration problem
[11:12] <mlehrer> lftp
[11:12] <mlehrer> rocks
[11:12] <coolaid> gftp
[11:13] <compotatoj> gftp is a good FTP CLIENT
[11:13] <m0> can I apt-get a lgtp ?
[11:13] <sethk> neildarlow, what he posted shows unresolved externals
[11:13] <Noumaan> m0: sudo apt-get --install gftp
[11:13] <m0> I need something with a GUI"?
[11:13] <mlehrer> i'd be surprised if lftp didn't come installed by default
[11:13] <sethk> neildarlow, no module will run with unresolved externals, and unresolved externals are caused by kernel/module version mismatch
[11:13] <mlehrer> m0: why?  lftp is much better
[11:13] <FlimFlamMan> i have sshfs working on ubuntu, now i just need to find a free "ssh filesystem" client for my unlucky co-workers who are stuck on windows...
[11:13] <sethk> I think they want to encourage you to use sftp,
[11:13] <ompaul> warlock__, find the source where ever you dropped it (sudo updatedb; locate proftp | more) and then follow this it will allow you type make uninstall
[11:13] <neildarlow> sethk: yes, he's attempting to build ALSA manually without prerequsites being installed. i suggested he diagnose a standard install
[11:14] <sethk> but lftp is installed for the desktop install, at least in breezy.
[11:14] <m0> how do I use gftp :S
[11:14] <ompaul> warlock__, then "sudo apt-get install proftpd"
[11:14] <coolaid> gui
[11:14] <sethk> neildarlow, ah, ok, didn't realize his post was no longer relevant.
[11:14] <m0> m0@m0-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install gftp
[11:14] <coolaid> applications-internet-gftp
[11:14] <m0> hmm
[11:14] <m0> I would like to have a FTP client which is a GUI
[11:14] <m0> Anyone available?
[11:14] <adminx> hello room
[11:15] <coolaid> gftp
[11:15] <rsk> gftp
[11:15] <coolaid> lol
[11:15] <coolaid> :)
[11:15] <m0> how do I install gftp?/
[11:15] <coolaid> synaptic
[11:15] <neildarlow> m0: try Places|Connect to Server...
[11:15] <cdubya> sudo apt-get install gftp
[11:15] <m0> Reading package lists... Done
[11:15] <m0> Building dependency tree... Done
[11:15] <m0> E: Couldn't find package gftp
[11:15] <l0fty> Noumann: I'm readin the wiki now, so I'll see what that has to say.
[11:15] <W8TAH> hi folks -- i have the ftp path to the latest snapshot of kvirc that is supposed to be quite stable, i would like to install it on my ubuntu system,  is there a way to get synaptic to do this for me?  or do i have to just download and ./configure etc...
[11:15] <jonah1980> bruenig, do you think i need to remove the line it says about so it can add it again?
[11:15] <warlock__> ompaul, back. OK gonna try it out,.
[11:15] <tanath> m0: sudo apt-get update first
[11:15] <coolaid> synaptic package manager system-admin-synaptic
[11:15] <tanath> m0: if you still can't, you need to fix your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:16] <warlock__> may I copy paste 2 lines, ompaul ?
[11:16] <coolaid> possibly need repositry entries
[11:16] <m0> tanath: I did it says at the end Count find package gftp
[11:16] <argunda> guys in your opinion, what performs better for ubuntu? Gnome or KDE? which is faster? less memory usage? etc
[11:16] <m0> tanath: hmm what do I need to fix
[11:16] <gebruiker> I need to clone my hd to other hd's trough cd/dvd automaticly. What options are there?
[11:16] <ompaul> warlock__, two only or else use paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:16] <warlock__> /var/cache/apt/archives/proftpd_1.2.10-22_i386.deb
[11:16] <warlock__> /var/cache/apt/archives/proftpd-common_1.2.10-22_i386.deb
[11:16] <argunda> Im sorry
[11:16] <warlock__> that's what I got when doing what you told me to do.
[11:16] <coolaid> preferences -repositries-add
[11:16] <Noumaan> l0fty: its simple you just install some codecs or some media player I hope you have already checked out Howto add and remove programs using synaptic, apt-get, etc.
[11:16] <cdubya> heh
[11:16] <coolaid> in synaptic
[11:16] <argunda> but it must be done =[
[11:16] <neildarlow> argunda: neither. it's your personal preference
[11:16] <tanath> do apt-cache search gftp
[11:16] <warlock__> brb a second, gf yelling, meh.
[11:16] <cdubya> argunda, what neildarlow said
[11:16] <gebruiker> I need to clone my hd to other hd's trough cd/dvd automaticly. What options are there?
[11:17] <johnm1019> what are you favorite terminal programs? maybe something tabbed??
[11:17] <m0> gftp-common - shared files for other gFTP packages
[11:17] <m0> gftp-gtk - X/GTK+ FTP client
[11:17] <tjb891> when I click and hold in firefox I get a piece of paper for a curser and it slides back to wear  it was, what is this curser?
[11:17] <alek> good night
[11:17] <tanath> m0: 'apt-cache search gftp' give any results?
[11:17] <argunda> neildarlow: ok I dislike Nautilius because of its high memory usage so that is why I asked
[11:17] <cdubya> m0, sudo apt-get install gftp-gtk
[11:17] <coolaid> grab it m0
[11:17] <tanath> m0: hrm, i get more than that
[11:17] <m0> thanks cdubya
[11:17] <l0fty> Noumaan: I'm interested more in the legal side - what can be done to campaign for better laws / more free formats so we don't have to put up with this. I already know how to install the stuff I need.
[11:17] <m0> cdubya worked
[11:17] <cdubya> np
[11:18] <m0> tanath: I just downlaoded the ubuntu install cd last night
[11:18] <Lattyware> hey, are there any free Linux speech-to-text apps availible?
[11:18] <tjb891> not to much, politians have no idea when it comes to software
[11:18] <neildarlow> argunda: you think konqueror will use less memory? i don't think so.
[11:18] <coolaid> takes a week or two to get used to
[11:18] <cdubya> bah
[11:18] <cdubya> heh
[11:18] <Noumaan> l0fty: I think you should then check out fsf.org and gnu.org check out their activism sections and campaigns
[11:18] <khobar_> seems like i got disconneted
[11:18] <tanath> m0: well, you can add universe, multiverse, etc to have more software available to you
[11:19] <coolaid> Tons of text to speech tools
[11:19] <argunda> neildarlow: can I use XFCE with another file manager?
[11:19] <m0> hmm
[11:19] <m0> tanath: Where do I do that from
[11:19] <tanath> m0: there's a few places you can do it in the menus, but they all edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:19] <devhen_> php --version reports that php is v. 5.1.2 but the packages I have installed are 4.2.2. any ideas?
[11:19] <coolaid> search text to speech in synaptic with all repos's enabled
[11:19] <kmasta> is the broadcom firmware still in the universe repositories?
[11:19] <baikonur> hi
[11:19] <khobar_> so can any one repeat what shall i do?
[11:19] <haasteem> hi, what is the best way up update to dapper? through synaptic or from cd?
[11:19] <neildarlow> argunda: probably. i use native desktop components wherever i can. it gives fewer problems
[11:20] <kmasta> is there a reason some of the repositories aren't working
[11:20] <tanath> m0: try System > Admin > update manager
[11:20] <argunda> neildarlow: I find Gnome takes up waay too much memory for no reason and it's kind of annoying :9
[11:20] <argunda> :(
[11:20] <tanath> m0: wait, not that one
[11:20] <nikosapi> Is it possible to install dapper 6.06 from the hard drive? I have a laptop with a pcmcia cdrom drive and I can't install from it :-(
[11:20] <koala_> omg, I am just sooooooooo happy right now
[11:20] <Lattyware> coolaid: Yeah, Tons of Text->Speech, but I'm looking for Speech->Text
[11:20] <koala_> just got xgl to work
[11:20] <cdubya> argunda, yep, you can use thunar
[11:20] <tanath> m0: try System > Admin > software properties
[11:20] <coolaid> hmm,dunno friend :(
[11:20] <koala_> with nvidia... what a hassle
[11:20] <argunda> cdubya: I can use thunar with Gnome??
[11:20] <Lattyware> Thunar is great, I love it.
[11:20] <Noumaan> kmasta: I also had trouble downloading I guess repos are down
[11:21] <cdubya> argunda, you were asking about one with XFCE, yes?
[11:21] <tanath> m0: then click Add on each thing and check the extra boxes
[11:21] <cdubya> argunda, Thunar works fine
[11:21] <argunda> cdubya: thunar is kind of limited
[11:21] <neildarlow> argunda: i have GNOME running in 512M of memory and i'm using 200MB with Openoffice.org quickstarter. i don't consider that expensive
[11:21] <argunda> =[
[11:21] <baikonur> I have a ubuntu 5.04 hoary hedgehog preview install cd, but want to install Dapper Drake. Is it no problem if I use the old install cd and then update it or make a netinstall if possible or do I really need to burn a new cd with dapper drake install cd?
[11:21] <kmasta> noumaan: I JUST LUGGED MY COMPUTER ALL THE WAY UP STAIRS TO A WIRED CONNECITON AND THE REPOS ARE DOWN NOOOOOOOOOOOO
[11:21] <warlock__> ompaul, you got it ?
[11:21] <m0> lol
[11:22] <m0> how do you download a file from FTP
[11:22] <m0> :)
[11:22] <neildarlow> m0: get
[11:22] <Noumaan> kmasta: use a mirror
[11:22] <tanath> baikonur: should be no prob. just do a dist-upgrade
[11:22] <Number_5> baikonur: you can upgrade to dapper after you install breezy
[11:22] <m0> neildarlow: I am using hte gui :p
[11:22] <kmasta> noumaan: how do i do thaat
[11:22] <neildarlow> m0: drag from the left to the right pane
[11:22] <m0> didn't work draging
[11:22] <coolaid> m0.... enter address and connect...use arrow that points to you side
[11:22] <ompaul> got?
[11:22] <m0> I clicked on the arrow
[11:22] <m0> and it worked :)
[11:22] <coolaid> arrow
[11:22] <Lattyware> That's nothing, I know a guy who had his net connection disrupted for a week, so I trailed out an extension cable to his car, and sat his desktop PC in his car outside his neigbours house and used thier wireless network.
[11:23] <cdubya> argunda, you asked about file managers that would work with XFCE.
[11:23] <argunda> is KDE like MAC?
[11:23] <coolaid> :)
[11:23] <Lattyware> *He, not I.
[11:23] <ompaul> warlock__,
[11:23] <ompaul> !enter
[11:23] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[11:23] <ompaul> mo ^^^
[11:23] <neildarlow> oh, a gtk application that doesn't understand drag'n'drop. that's novel
[11:23] <tanath> i have an odd prob
[11:24] <tanath> amsn inserts \b for backspace and \r for enter
[11:24] <kmasta> it would appear the repos are now back up, and thus my hope restored
[11:24] <tanath> so they effectively don't work....
[11:24] <baikonur> is there a netinstall boot disk for ubuntu?
[11:24] <tanath> anyone know how to fix this? doesn't seem to happen in other apps
[11:24] <sethk> tanath, those are correct for specifying return and backspace
[11:25] <sethk> tanath, the app should interpret them
[11:25] <tanath> sethk: not what i mean. i mean, if i type those keys, instead of doing their function, they insert that text
[11:25] <warlock__> ompaul. I could wget it again from a dir, then unpack it. Then uninstall it with ./configure then make uninstall - would that work ?
[11:25] <warlock__> from -> to.
[11:25] <kmasta> how do I use a mirror for repos?
[11:25] <sethk> tanath, you mean that's the way they are echoed
[11:25] <adminx> Yes, check distrowatch.com I was it linked over there (Net Install Ubuntu)
[11:26] <tanath> sethk: yes, it echoes '\b' for instance, instead of doing a backspace
[11:26] <Noumaan> kmasta: http://tinyurl.com/g3e4g has a list of mirrors. Go to System ->Administration -> software properties. select the Repository click on edit and then custom and change the url
[11:26] <adminx> Saw not Was
[11:26] <m0> GFTP
[11:26] <m0> is lame
[11:26] <ompaul> warlock__,  it should
[11:26] <warlock__> ompaul, let me try..
[11:26] <m0> (gftp-gtk:6642): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_text_buffer_emit_insert: assertion `g_utf8 _validate (text, len, NULL)' failed
[11:26] <nikosapi> m0: WHAT?
[11:26] <m0> I get all this!
[11:26] <kmasta> than you noumaan
[11:26] <m0> on the terminal
[11:26] <tjb891> ok so if I need to open a port on my nat firewall to make bittorent run properly is now my entire machine at risk?
[11:27] <kmasta> AHAHAHAHAHHHH, FINNALLY! IT WORKS
[11:27] <tanath> sethk: so, do you know how to fix it?
[11:27] <ompaul> !shout
[11:27] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:27] <jvai> lol
[11:27] <warlock__> *laughs*
[11:27] <haasteem> hi, what is the best way up update to dapper? through synaptic or from cd?
[11:28] <tanath> haasteem: prolly synaptic. just do a dist-upgrade
[11:28] <m0> woo0t :) Now I need to install Xvid Codex!
[11:28] <m0> does apt-get do that?
[11:28] <tanath> yeah
[11:28] <warlock__> OK ompaul, how do I kill everything with "pure-ftpd" in it ?
[11:28] <warlock__> Got it!
[11:28] <tanath> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:29] <m0> how do I search in apt-get
[11:29] <jrib> !apt > m0
[11:29] <ompaul> warlock__, I take it is it not running at this time
[11:29] <tanath> how do i get my 'enter' and 'bs' keys working in amsn? anyone?
[11:29] <m0> !apt xvid
[11:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt xvid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:29] <jrib> !xvid > m0
[11:29] <tanath> m0: apt-cache search blah
[11:29] <Noumaan> haasteem: before doing this you will have to update your sources.list file you should consult DapperUpgrades on Wiki
[11:29] <augustin_> anyone to help me with a partition problem that i'm trying to solve with gpart? i'm almost there, i'm sure, but i need help =/
[11:29] <Thordasin> hi, i'm blind and need some help first of all how do i make the leave and join messages go away :)
[11:29] <warlock__> ompaul, It is not. I installed it again through apt-get install pure-ftpd, but now a few commands are not working. Like the base command: pure-pw.

[11:31] <warlock__> ompaul, It just setted pure-pw up. How do I make this thing to work now then?
[11:32] <m0> so I just download MPLAYER
[11:32] <ompaul> warlock__, I don't run ftpd (have not since I disovered ssh the guts of whatever it was years ago)
[11:32] <Lattyware> mplayer sucks for me, VLC seems to work better, allthough that is buggy as hell.
[11:33] <warlock__> ompaul, uh. then I'll get it through wget again. as I know its working that way.
[11:33] <tanath> arg! why does amsn echo the escape codes for non-alphanumeric characters?!
[11:33] <ion_> Jesus why  did they remove the debian sysinstall ?
[11:33] <m0> so what you recomment?
[11:33] <warlock__> I might need some help though. we'll see. Just dont go away. :-)
[11:33] <m0> VLC ? or Mplayer
[11:33] <tanath> enter, backspace, delete, etc., don't work
[11:33] <m0> buggy in what sence?
[11:33] <jrib> m0: try both and see what you like.  I prefer mplayer myself
[11:33] <Lattyware> It crashes alot, when you try to do specific things
[11:33] <m0> so I do sudo apt-get install kmplayer-base

[11:34] <ompaul> warlock__, this time use checkinstall as on that web page
[11:34] <warlock__> ompaul. Im using an guide I got on my computer, worked before on my other server.
[11:34] <m0> the thing about apt-get is that it installs everything in your home user folder with .[APP_NAME] 
[11:34] <ochosi> does anyone know why there could be problems in xubuntu with audio-cds?
[11:34] <m0> makes it too messy
[11:34] <jrib> m0: if you want kmplayer, install the "kmplayer" package.  If you want regular mplayer (with the gtk gui) install "mplayer"
[11:34] <ompaul> ochosi, there is #xubuntu
[11:35] <m0> jrib: what is kmplayer?
[11:35] <jrib> m0: those are just config files
[11:35] <ompaul> warlock__, how much customisation have you given that box?
[11:35] <jrib> m0: apt-cache show kmplayer, will tell you.  I believe it is the kde frontend for mplayer
[11:35] <vedder> Hi!
[11:35] <ochosi> @ompaul, thanks i'll have a look
[11:35] <m0> jrib: hmm what did I install?
[11:35] <gimpyd> hello world
[11:35] <vedder> Anothe day without luck compiling in ubuntu
[11:35] <m0> jrib: I installed config files?
[11:35] <ion_> sorry everyone I knoww my question is a bit silly but how can a make manual partition with that graphic interface ?
[11:36] <warlock__> ompaul, Im still getting this error like I had before, Argghhh!
[11:36] <gimpyd> anyone know how to make digital 5.1 (6 channel) surround sound work with ubuntu im clueless
[11:36] <ompaul> ochosi, this is irc what you type everyone sees (unless you do /msg username which you don't without asking) leave out the @
[11:36] <warlock__> ompaul, System startup links for /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-run already exist. I got that when doing this: update-rc.d pure-ftpd-run start 21 2 3 4 5 . stop 19 0 1 6 .
[11:36] <vedder> please what i have to do to be able to compile?
[11:36] <Ambimom> Can I install BNR2 even though it's for Red Hat?
[11:36] <vedder> i always have dependecy problem when i try to download dev packs
[11:36] <ochosi> ompaul, ok
[11:36] <ompaul> warlock__, what is wth 3 4 5 we don't use them :)
[11:36] <Number_5> vedder: what do you want to compile?
[11:37] <tanath> ion_: gparted
[11:37] <ompaul> warlock__, if you installed it you want it to run :)
[11:37] <vedder> qbittorrent right now
[11:37] <jrib> m0: no, the programs get installed in /, but those .blah things you see in your $HOME are just config files for your user to use the program.  The initial dot should hide them, so that they don't make your $HOME look messy
[11:37] <vedder> but i try with ktorrent without luck
[11:37] <warlock__> ompaul, yes. I want it to run after a reboot aswell. What should that line be? :(
[11:37] <vedder> the same with wemu
[11:37] <m0> jrib: I still have to isntall the Codec
[11:37] <jrib> m0: you can see every file a package installed with this command:  dpkg -L package_name
[11:37] <Ambimom> vedder:  try opera browser...has torrent built in and it works
[11:37] <vedder> this is not a solution for me
[11:37] <ompaul> warlock__, 2 is fine it is all singing all dancin
[11:38] <Ambimom> vedder: you don't want to use Opera?
[11:38] <Number_5> vedder: have you tryied using sudo apt-get install qtorrent ?
[11:38] <jrib> m0: yes, the two pages ubotu sent before should list the packages you need to install for multimedia codecs.  The restricted wiki page, as well as the help.ubuntu.com page
[11:38] <vedder> qbittorrent is other client
[11:38] <tanath> vedder: depends on the language, but g++ will compile most
[11:38] <m0> okay
[11:38] <warlock__> ompaul, so this line "update-rc.d pure-ftpd-run start 21 2 3 4 5 . stop 19 0 1 6 ." is correct?
[11:38] <m0> very complicated thanks :)
[11:38] <roxlu> hi all!
[11:38] <vedder> i have g++ installed
[11:38] <Ambimom> hello roxlu
[11:38] <vedder> i need Qt
[11:39] <vedder> but i can't dint that pack in the repos
[11:39] <tanath> vedder: yeh, you need some -dev packages for certain things
[11:39] <roxlu> does anyone know if I can run an command line application (server) in the background although it has output to stdout ?
[11:39] <ion_> tanath: no I have to install ubuntu because I'd format but now isn't debian sysinstall anymore...and that graphic interface doesn't give me much choice...
[11:39] <sethk> vedder, qt is installed when kde is installed
[11:39] <Number_5> vedder where is this qbittorrent...i want to try i tout
[11:39] <_tcc> http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=3236&size=big&cat=2
[11:39] <_tcc> How was this done?
[11:39] <_tcc> How did they get gaim to look like that?
[11:39] <vedder> http://www.qbittorrent.org/
[11:39] <ompaul> Warbo, you don't need 345 they do not exist but it works
[11:39] <vedder> i have kde installed just because i use k3b  and k9copy
[11:40] <argunda> I was installing kubuntu and it didnt download one of the packages, what should I do?
[11:40] <vedder> what my porblem is that i always have dependency problems
[11:40] <argunda> it says "E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?"
[11:40] <Number_5> roxlu: you can use the program screen
[11:40] <vedder> qbittorrent seems to be a great client
[11:40] <_gmak> hi
[11:40] <m0> wow how did they make their desktops look like that
[11:40] <syntaxx> ok now i just installed a base system from 5.10 and upgrade it to dapper how can i install xorg and kde?
[11:40] <roxlu> Number_5: and then start it like: $./myapp & ?
[11:40] <vedder> i found a deb but because i have dependecy problem y can't install the deb
[11:40] <Flannel> syntaxx: you're already running xorg
[11:40] <tanath> _tcc: probably with Xgl+compiz
[11:40] <Aphex_Twin> are there any free chess training games easily available?
[11:40] <_tcc> m0, no freaking idea
[11:40] <_gmak> give me 5 different reasons to use ubuntu over other distros please :)
[11:40] <sethk> argunda, run apt-get update
[11:40] <Flannel> syntaxx: and, for kde, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:41] <Thordasin> i'm sorry if some one answered me, i'm having trouble keeping up as i'm blind and don't know how to make irc read the messages auto maticly
[11:41] <sethk> argunda, if that doesn't work, try it with --fix-missing
[11:41] <tanath> _tcc: you can make windows transparent and lots of other things, like wobbly windows
[11:41] <Flannel> _gmak: #ubuntu-offtopic will be able to oblidge
[11:41] <syntaxx> Flannel: no i dont have xorg my installation is just a base system
[11:41] <sethk> argunda, which is exactly what the error told you to do.
[11:41] <_gmak> k
[11:41] <_tcc> tanath. yeah i can't get compiz+xgl working
[11:41] <_tcc> brb
[11:41] <vedder> i don't want to change ubuntu but like is is imposinle to me
[11:41] <Flannel> syntaxx: ah.  same command, will take care of it.  apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:41] <Number_5> roxlu: nah just start screen then start the app and hit ctrl+a d
[11:41] <argunda> sethk: it says "--fix-missing: Command not found"
[11:41] <roxlu> oke thanx
[11:42] <tanath> _tcc: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168618
[11:42] <sethk> argunda, --fix-missing is an argument to apt-get
[11:42] <tanath> _tcc: that's the guide that works
[11:42] <argunda> ok
[11:42] <syntaxx> Flannel: ok and my kde will boot on startup right? how bout installing boot splash?
[11:42] <Flannel> syntaxx: that'll all get installed
[11:42] <tanath> _tcc: er, assuming you're using ati
[11:42] <syntaxx> Flannel: ayt thanks
[11:42] <gimpyd> whos using ati
[11:42] <tanath> _tcc: which vid card are you using?
[11:42] <gimpyd> geforce pwns ati
[11:42] <ompaul> warlock__, sorry that last one to war^bo was to you - in ubuntu if you install it you expect it to run - therefore it is off 0 6 reboot and 2 run when up
[11:43] <tanath> gimpyd: i am
[11:43] <Flannel> Thordasin: jrib asked which IRC client you were using.
[11:43] <gimpyd> tanath: plz remove all under garments and proceed to the gas chamber
[11:43] <argunda> sethk: so I do "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop --fix-missing" ?
[11:43] <tanath> gimpyd: got a sweet deal. meh
[11:43] <gimpyd> hooray for geforce
[11:43] <Thordasin> mirc sorry i did not catch that :)
[11:43] <tanath> gimpyd: was a clearance item
[11:43] <gimpyd> lol tanath its all good
[11:43] <warlock__> I'm deeply sorry ompaul, I still dont get it (please note: I'm not an experienced ubuntu server user, still a beginner). I cant seem to figure out if its correct or not. And if its not, what should it be? It seems like it wont start after a reboot.
[11:44] <sethk> argunda, yes, but   apt-get --fix-missing install kubuntu-desktop
[11:44] <vedder> where i can find  libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.0)?
[11:44] <argunda> ok
[11:44] <sethk> vedder, part of the build-essential package
[11:44] <warlock__> ompaul: update-rc.d pure-ftpd-run start 21 2 . stop 19 0 1 6 .
[11:44] <warlock__> does that look better?
[11:44] <vedder> i have BE installed
[11:45] <vedder> but i need a newer version of  libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.0);
[11:45] <argunda> how do I make myself root again?
[11:45] <vedder> i have 1:4.0.3-
[11:45] <quiet> i don't have a mount.cifs   what package would have it?? samba?
[11:45] <vedder> i need 1:4.1.0
[11:45] <ompaul> warlock__, hang on you installed a server with apt-get just now
[11:45] <jrib> !sudo > argunda
[11:45] <warlock__> ompaul, no with wget.
[11:46] <ompaul> warlock__, ahh
[11:46] <warlock__> The apt-get didnt work correctly
[11:46] <ion_> so how  can I make a manual partition guys ?
[11:46] <warlock__> as pure-pw or such didnt excist.
[11:46] <vedder> wich is the comando to force a reinstall?
[11:46] <Number_5> warlock__: pure-pw works here
[11:46] <epitaf> i cant change the resolution to higher than 1024x768.. my video card is ATI Radeon 9700 Pro. Do I need to install new drivers?
[11:46] <Thordasin> its scrolling to fast for me i can't tell if any one answered or not is there a way to join a private channel for a minute to get the answer?
[11:47] <warlock__> well, could someone please help me out? I will give you root access to look it through. I'm really having troubles with this. I need to have it -all- removed. And installed from scratch. I have people waiting, and it'd be HIHGLY appriciated.
[11:47] <s_v_e_n> Hello, I need the program lc (linecount) how can I find out which .deb to install ?
[11:47] <jrib> Thordasin: /join #ubuntu-classroom
[11:47] <ompaul> warlock__, don't do that I have seen boxes here taken and damaged
[11:47] <Number_5> Thordasin: what was your question?
[11:47] <lmosher> I accidentally installed my Ubuntu (just now) with the drive jumpered as slave. I've switched it to master now and things are screwy
[11:47] <jrib> if anyone knows how to ignore joins and parts on mirc, please join #ubuntu-classroom to help out Thordasin
[11:48] <ompaul> warlock__, I'll install if if you give me a minute
[11:48] <lmosher> If I edit the grub line to /dev/hda1 it will boot my partition, but fstab still calls it /dev/hdb
[11:48] <ompaul> warlock__, and test what you need
[11:48] <m0> hmm
[11:48] <typhoid> hi!   what's the command to see the current permissions on a file?
[11:48] <mih> vedder: get it from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ - select your Ubuntu version and search ;)
[11:48] <m0> does ubuntu have a c compiler in default?
[11:48] <rsk> m0: no
[11:48] <rsk> you need build-essential
[11:49] <epitaf> does anyone know?
[11:49] <m0> apt-get install build-essential ?
[11:49] <cius> it used to be that when I inserted a blank cd-r, ubuntu asked me what I wanted to do.  It doesn't do that anymore, anyone have an idea why not?
[11:49] <typhoid> i know  chmod changes permissions.. is that what is used to see em too?
[11:49] <rsk> just like that
[11:49] <jrib> typhoid: use 'ls -l' or 'stat'
[11:49] <vedder> is ok if i install the edgy pack?
[11:49] <ompaul> warlock__, msg me I have some settings for you to try
[11:49] <typhoid> jrib: thanks!
[11:49] <dragonkh> ola
[11:50] <dragonkh> anyone had problems installing dapper where it hangs at the framebuffer line ?
[11:50] <lmosher> I unstalled ubuntu to /dev/hdb, but then moved the disk over to ide1 master. I had to manually edit the grub line to get it to boot, but more things seems screwy (fstab still says it's /dev/hdb1) How do I fix this? Just reinstall?
[11:50] <dragonkh> I cant seem to install
[11:50] <corpxicle> ok now im having another strange problem
[11:50] <vedder> here we go..if they dont work i switch to other distro seems ldapper is not for me
[11:50] <Thordasin> it scrolled so fast i could not read the name you wanted me to join, perhaps you could make it short like #blind :)
[11:50] <corpxicle> sound suddenly dissapears
[11:50] <m0> you guys are the best
[11:50] <ompaul> dragonkh, wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions
[11:50] <corpxicle> dapper/ppc
[11:51] <jrib> Thordasin: #blind is ok
[11:51] <Thordasin> cool
[11:51] <corpxicle> err
[11:51] <corpxicle> ok
[11:51] <corpxicle> i discovered what it was
[11:52] <corpxicle> but i dont know why
[11:52] <corpxicle> "PCM" was at zero level, pulled that up and out came sound
[11:52] <dragonkh> I tried the frambeuffer=false but it seems to make no difference :(
[11:53] <Number_5> dragonkh: so it's locking up right after boot?
[11:53] <fyrestrtr> dragonkh: use the alternate install cd.
[11:54] <dragonkh> grr
[11:54] <thedead1> hey guys, I was following the persistantusb wiki, and whenever I get to the end and try and boot of it I get a L 99 99 99.. error
[11:54] <m0> hmm I downloaded the xvid tarball and I configured make makeinstall
[11:54] <dragonkh> I put in the disk and hit install then it does some reading from the cdrom and hangs at a line saying something about switching to framebuffer
[11:54] <m0> but when I run my movie, it doesn't work
[11:55] <m0> it says decoder not installed to handle this file.
[11:55] <typhoid> can any of you tell me what permissions should be on my public web folder (ie, the default permissions)
[11:55] <dragonkh> whats the alternate install cd do ?
[11:55] <fyrestrtr> m0: read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:55] <fyrestrtr> dragonkh: allows a text-mode install
[11:56] <Soccrmastr> can sum1 help me with easyubuntu :/
[11:56] <Soccrmastr> keeps saying it cant apply chanmges , fix broken packages first
[11:56] <MJSlayer> Hello? Does anyone have some time to help me out?
[11:56] <rsk> dont ask to ask
[11:56] <dragonkh> fyrestrtr does that mean I can install ok - or is the framebuffer problem point to more problems with my hardware ?
[11:56] <_tcc> tanath
[11:57] <tanath> _tcc: yeah?
[11:57] <_tcc> i'm using intel i810
[11:57] <fyrestrtr> dragonkh: it might just be an issue with the livecd.
[11:57] <Number_5> dragonkh: my first guess would be a bad burn
[11:57] <MJSlayer> Well, in that case - I was wondering how to install ATi drivers and also how to configure a system so users only have access to a select few applications.
[11:57] <m0> The best support for MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 (for example, encoded with DivX, XviD or FFmpeg MPEG-4), QuickTime and other proprietary or non-free media formats is currently provided by Totem-xine, Kaffeine, gxine, and MPlayer.
[11:57] <m0> So technically it should work
[11:57] <m0> since Ubuntu comes with Totem
[11:58] <fyrestrtr> !ati
[11:58] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:58] <tanath> MJSlayer: there's built-in permissions in the file system
[11:58] <baikonur> I want to install windows 2000 and ubuntu on a new harddisk. Is there a recommend partitioning scheme I should use. Install windows first or later?
[11:58] <tanath> baikonur: windows first
[11:58] <thedead1> hey guys, I was following the persistantusb wiki, and whenever I get to the end and try and boot of it I get a L 99 99 99.. error

[12:00] <baikonur> tanath, I want to use mainly ubuntu but in special ocasions I need windows. doesn't it slow the file access if the ubuntu files aren't at the beginning of the hdd?
[12:00] <tanath> _tcc: double-click active_plugins
[12:00] <_tcc> tanath, woah, i have no compiz in there
[12:00] <tanath> _tcc: thought so... you have compiz installed?
[12:01] <_tcc> compiz is already the newest version
[12:01] <_tcc> yes
