[12:01] <Don_jr> is Automatix better than synoptic?
[12:01] <gnomefreak> !automatix
[12:01] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.

[12:02] <SuSEMan> what is the latest build?
[12:02] <m4rk> hm how do I find this libdvdread3 and does it work with vlc?

[12:02] <izm99> Don_jr, try Dive into Python book.
[12:03] <Ktron> Anyone have any suggestions on how I can install ubuntu-- currently trying to install off of a livecd it hangs (last line in the log file is 'backup')?
[12:03] <gnomefreak> SuSEMan: latest build of what?
[12:03] <eletido> Don_jr: automatix just automates installing stuff
[12:03] <SuSEMan> ubuntu
[12:03] <FRET> FMJ|Cyonyc, what about a pstree |grep sshd ?
[12:03] <gnomefreak> SuSEMan: 6.06
[12:03] <SuSEMan> gnomefreak: did they release a beta?
[12:03] <gnomefreak> ack 6.06.1 is the latest iso
[12:03] <Don_jr> ism99 thanx
[12:03] <gnomefreak> SuSEMan: no edgy isnt beta yet
[12:03] <Don_jr> eletido synoptic does the same thing.
[12:04] <SuSEMan> ok thnx, thats wat i want to know
[12:04] <FMJ|Cyonyc> FRET: nothing happened.
[12:04] <eletido> Don_jr: ah, ok. havent heard of synoptic. sorry.
[12:04] <donvella> Howdy. - Does anybody know how to duplicate all whats on my linux partitions to another HDD on a different PC?
[12:04] <FRET> FMJ|Cyonyc, then it's not running
[12:04] <gnomefreak> eletido: he meant synaptic
[12:04] <eletido> Don_jr: i havent used either, so i couldnt talk about which is better.
[12:04] <anthony_> I have a wide-screen laptop and it plays "square" videos out of ratio (it makes everything short and fat). how can I get them to play normally?  (I have installed all graphics drivers and reset my screen resolution to be correct) I'm using MPlayer btw
[12:04] <Ktron> Anyone have any suggestions on how I can install ubuntu-- currently trying to install off of a livecd it hangs (last line in the log file is 'backup')?
[12:05] <gnomefreak> and i suggest taking the automatix talk to #automatix
[12:05] <magus_x> automatix is a timebomb...
[12:05] <FMJ|Cyonyc> FRET: I am fairly new to lots of commands, I am assuming that PSTREE is a tree map of everything running on the linux box?
[12:05] <magus_x> take careful, it can broke the dependences
[12:05] <gnomefreak> Ktron: download the 6.06.
[12:05] <donvella> anthony_: i suggest you get VLC media player. works a treat
[12:05] <gnomefreak> damn
[12:05] <jba> does anyone know what my problem wiht my rca lyra in ubuntu is, i go to put a file ont he mp3 player and it says that there isn't enought space, but there is...
[12:05] <TheGateKeeper> eletido: this is what I tell most people: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21674
[12:05] <gnomefreak> Ktron: download the 6.06.1 live cd
[12:05] <grogoreo> hi
[12:05] <izm99> jman, lupine: would it matter if my swap is now too small?
[12:05] <FRET> FMJ|Cyonyc, you try to set up a linux-server, without knowing linux?
[12:05] <Ktron> gnomefreak: I'm using the 6.06.1 AMD 64 Live CD'
[12:05] <magus_x> FRET, : at least he want to learn
[12:06] <xopher> Ktron, and if thats what you got, try the 'alternate cd', with the old installer
[12:06] <FMJ|Cyonyc> FRET: gotta start somehwhere :)
[12:06] <Kragnerac> Don_jr: Actually, the competitor of Automatix would not be Synaptic, but rather easyUbuntu. ;)
[12:06] <gnomefreak> Ktron: is the md5sum a match to the download link?
[12:06] <donvella> Ktron: i suggest you use the 32bit version. It works a treat
[12:06] <grogoreo> why is it that when I set "1600x1200" in my xorg.conf as the first resolution, the login screen scrolls like the resolution is too big (1920x1400 too big) for the screen. Is it pre-set?
[12:06] <FMJ|Cyonyc> FRET: and I have successfully setup a linux server on Fedora
[12:06] <eletido> TheGateKeeper: thanks.
[12:06] <lupine> jzm99: no
[12:06] <donvella> Ktron: Sometimes the 64bit ver farks up
[12:06] <Don_jr> I downloaded some thins from univers, they arn't in the applications menu and I don't know how to find them
[12:06] <lupine> the more ram you have, the less ram you need
[12:06] <Nae> is the add/remove applications tool supposed to update everything every time it's run?
[12:06] <TheGateKeeper> eletido: yw :-)
[12:06] <gnomefreak> Nae: add/remove not really synaptic does
[12:07] <Don_jr> kragnerac I just installed ubuntu last night and finally got online..synoptic is what runs originally isn't it?
[12:07] <Ktron> donvella: kind of sucks that I might have to run the 32bit OS because the 64bit version won't install.... I'll double check the md5sum gnomefreak and I can try the alternate cd too
[12:07] <izm99> lupine, er... less swap u need?  ok.
[12:07] <FRET> FMJ|Cyonyc, ok...maybe this is interesting for you: http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[12:07] <Princ> hello room and fans of ubuntu :)
[12:07] <donvella> - = Can anyone explain to me how to do a complete duplicate of my partitions to another HDD? Thanks for your time. = -
[12:07] <lupine> swap is fake ram
[12:07] <gnomefreak> donvella: yes
[12:07] <donvella> Ktron: I have an AMD64bit. I use the 32bit version. works excellent.
[12:07] <gnomefreak> Don_jr: yes
[12:07] <FMJ|Cyonyc> FRET: thanks! :)
[12:07] <Kragnerac> Don_jr: both Automatix and Synaptic are based on apt-get.
[12:08] <donvella> gnomefreak: Thanks dude.
[12:08] <TheGateKeeper> Ktron: enjoy ---> http://en.jakilinux.org/linux/ubuntu/kubuntu-606-on-athlon-64/
[12:08] <gnomefreak> donvella: that wasnt for you
[12:08] <donvella> gnomefreak: :(
[12:08] <gnomefreak> sorry
[12:08] <Kragnerac> heh
[12:08] <izm99> jman, lupine: actually, now that I think of it, something I may have installed before rebooting could be the cause.. but I'll let memtest finish
[12:08] <Docmur> Hey does anyone here know how to install a boot splash
[12:08] <donvella> gnomefreak: can you help me anyway?
[12:08] <Docmur> I downloaded one and I don't know how to install it
[12:08] <lupine> d'oh
[12:08] <gnomefreak> Kragnerac: i asked you to join #automatix to talk about automatix
[12:08] <izm99> heh
[12:08] <xopher> donvella, man dd, 'its all there' :/
[12:09] <donvella> xopher: cheers.
[12:09] <Princ> i have 2 questions for which i would need your help: 1. When I used ubuntu with LiveCD everything worked great, but after I installed it, I dont get any voice. If i put audio CD inside, I get info that audio hardware couldn't be found something like that
[12:09] <Princ> can someone help me

[12:09] <Don_jr> gnomefreak how do I find things on here that I've gotten from universe
[12:10] <erUSUL> !sound
[12:10] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems

[12:10] <eletido> yeah, saw that before.
[12:10] <gnomefreak> Don_jr: what are you looking for?
[12:10] <xopher> Princ, try running asoundconf , and check in alsamixer that you dont have anything muted that shouldnt be.
[12:10] <gnomefreak> thats why its nto talked about in here
[12:10] <samern> Any Ubuntu from LEBANON?
[12:10] <samern> users*
[12:10] <lhds> is it possible that ubuntu is 3.6 gega wide? whats in it other than gnome xserver and the kernel?
[12:11] <donvella> IcemanV9: Your a legend mate.
[12:11] <lhds> yes LEBANON HERE
[12:11] <Don_jr> gnomefreak I'll have to go back and look again...I thougth they'd install.....I'll look around
[12:11] <Princ> xopher, nothing is muted first i checked that. But now i will check the alsa.
[12:11] <kazukisan> When ever i go to a website from another website it takes for ever, but while im in that website browsing other links part of that website its super fast, its only slow when i switch domains ?? any ideas ?????????
[12:11] <IcemanV9> donvella: yw
[12:11] <lhds> what to remove if i was to strip some things off ubuntu
[12:12] <racefire> Hi
[12:12] <donvella> lhds: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Speed_up_boot
[12:12] <Princ> also, the other question please: on C: i have Windows XP installed, on D: some music... F: is for ubuntu... how can i play the music that is in D: from ubuntu? Whenever i try to ented D: i got something like unable to mount drive
[12:12] <YedekNick> hi all, is there a small .iso for ubuntu. there is one for debian (100 mb) i wonder if ubuntu has it too ?
[12:12] <kazukisan> YedekNick: no
[12:12] <acidian> Princ:  you cant mount the linux filesystem in windows
[12:12] <jldugger> man, who's in charge of planet.ubuntu.com ?
[12:12] <lhds> its not about speed really
[12:12] <donvella> Princ: Mount the drive in cmd.
[12:12] <lhds> its about the amount of files
[12:12] <acidian> Princ: and ubuntu can only read ntfs, but not write to it
[12:12] <xopher> but it can
[12:13] <donvella> xopher: Can you edit an NTFS drive through linux?
[12:13] <W_McL> acidian, not exactly. there are windows drivers to access linux filesystems, but it's better not to use them because it's insecure.
[12:13] <jldugger> donvella, ive heard the fuse driver should do that well enough
[12:13] <ciaran_> !flash
[12:13] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[12:13] <Princ> I want only to play the music that is in D: from ubuntu if possible...
[12:13] <donvella> jldugger: I dont understand sorry.
[12:13] <ciaran_> hi guys
[12:13] <acidian> W_McL: mkai, Ive also heard that there are "highly experimental" programs that let you write to ntfs from linux
[12:13] <samern> hey
[12:14] <ciaran_> to install flash guys: apt-get install flash ?
[12:14] <jldugger> donvella, there's a driver in userspace that lets you write NTFS
[12:14] <acidian> W_McL:  one of them requires scandisk to fix the files after you have written them, else it wont work XD
[12:14] <xopher> donvella, well there are lots of ways, I used a propietary driver called paragon or something once, but there are other better ways now I guess. Even on the wiki, or forum.
[12:14] <kazukisan> ciaran_: no
[12:14] <samern> ciaran_ get easyubuntu
[12:14] <kazukisan> ciaran_: go to macromedias website and download the flash installer
[12:15] <Ktron> Alright, thanks very much #ubuntu in particular donvella, xopher, and gnomefreak
[12:15] <acidian> think flash can be found in synaptic
[12:15] <W_McL> acidian: but the danger of accessing linux filesystems in windows is not only that the drivers are probably experimental, but also that windows doesn't understand the unix file prermissions
[12:15] <Ktron> who knows whether I'll be back or not :)
[12:15] <ciaran_> kazukisan: apt-get easyubuntu ?
[12:15] <xopher> Ktron, np
[12:15] <racefire> It can, but I honestly can't get the sound working properly for flash on my PC
[12:15] <acidian> W_McL: ahh, bad
[12:15] <samern> easyubuntu.freecontrib.org
[12:15] <xopher> Now, good night guys, Im going to bed.
[12:15] <gnomefreak> ciaran_: no easyubuntu is not in repos please join #easyubuntu for help or talk about it
[12:16] <ciaran_> ahh ok
[12:16] <TheGame> is it possible to copy songs from networks using rhythmbox
[12:16] <W_McL> acidian: true. better not try it
[12:16] <TheGame> like move them to my hard drive
[12:16] <ciaran_> gnomefreak: how do I join it. I'm completely new to this all
[12:16] <acidian> W_McL: not planning to, but I wish that linux could read and write to ntfs, would make my life a bit easier :/
[12:17] <racefire> When I try to use flash, the sound is choppy, but plays (sometimes). The sound is non-existent in Wine, and perfect in ies4linux (when it plays).
[12:17] <Seveas> acidian, it can easily read and as of edgy it will be able to write
[12:17] <ciaran_> plus is anyone else seeing them readlines across the screen?
[12:17] <kitche> acidian: it does read and write to ntfs but it's bad
[12:17] <kitche> acidian; if you date captiventfs
[12:17] <ciaran_> what are the red lines for?
[12:17] <acidian> kitche: how do I do that?

[12:28] <Feldman> does anyone know how I can install quicktime on my ubuntu dapper PC?
[12:28] <Seveas> geokok, they think working around problems is better than solving thm. And the egos of the developers are bigger than their brains
[12:28] <homerh_linux> evening ppl i hav seem to lost from my top panel the minamised icons eg x-chat sysicon and compiz icon and my azurues basicly all the minised program
[12:28] <npster> bluefox83, I have no Idea, how can I check
[12:28] <drbreen> feldman: quicktime ? you want to watch videos ? use vlc or xine instead.
[12:28] <greg> URE ALL WHORES
[12:28] <Seveas> gnomefreak, they're still working on flash 9 for linux

[12:29] <bluefox83> npster, if you don't know, then the answer is no...
[12:29] <Seveas> gnomefreak, http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/
[12:29] <Feldman> drbreen: where can I get vlc or xine?
[12:29] <bluefox83> npster, go ask google what module your camera needs, and go get it
[12:29] <Seveas> a great tale of incompetence ;)
[12:29] <geokok> ok..well can u tell me that then? There is an app called hardinfo at the repos but it is older and the website it refers too does not exist. Is it the same app?

[12:29] <npster> bluefox83, OK
[12:30] <drbreen> feldman: first enable universe !repositories, then use gnome-app-install (applications --> install / remove software) or synaptic and search for them
[12:30] <nils_> anyone here got experience with linux-kernel-di ?
[12:30] <drbreen> feldman: or just do an "apt-get install vlc" in a terminal ?!

[12:33] <cbx33> what can I do to check?
[12:33] <don_jr> is thre a difference that would make one better than the other gnome or kde?
[12:33] <FRET> tuxedup, kde-look.org doesn't have them?
[12:33] <nils_> the reason I'm rebuilding the thing is because ubuntu hasn't got (good) support for Dell 2950...
[12:33] <Seveas> IcemanV9, that is aways a good thing
[12:34] <cbx33> Seveas, 0000:02:04.0 Ethernet controller: Linksys, A Division of Cisco Systems [AirConn]  INPROCOMM IPN 2220 Wireless LAN Adapter (rev 01)
[12:34] <thedcm> I hate BLACK PEOPLE
[12:34] <ljbade> hmm maybe ill just post in the forum since you guys are lil bit busy atm...
[12:34] <acidian> wow
[12:34] <IcemanV9> Seveas: well, i guess so. we shall see when it comes for linux. :)
[12:34] <tuxedup> FRET:It does but you have to use the iconnaming-utils package from the tango site to make them, and thats the package I am having problems with, it does not like my version of imagemagick
[12:34] <racefire> I don't know the answer to your question, tuxedup
[12:34] <ppcblaster> will not accept login and password using Xubuntu
[12:35] <racefire> !repeat < ppcblaster
[12:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat < ppcblaster - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:35] <FRET> ppcblaster, ???
[12:35] <nils_> so... anyone, even give me a pointer to figure it out ?
[12:35] <jjholt> is there a way to disable a update for a single package?
[12:35] <racefire> !repeat > ppcblaster
[12:36] <BlueEagle> ppcblaster: If you hit CTRL+ALT+F1 and try to log into the terminal does that allow you to log in?
[12:36] <gnomefreak> AngryElf: yes the 10.4 version is the fix for it
[12:36] <Storkme> how come when i use `ant`, it works fine, but using `sudo ant` says: sudo: ant: command not found
[12:37] <BlueEagle> storkme: Perhaps ant is you your path but not in roots path. Try which ant and then use the complete path name with sudo.
[12:37] <IcemanV9> hm. i just noticed this line from dmesg -- ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting. -- is that bad? should i fix it somehow?
[12:37] <jjholt> I had to compile a custom driver for my via video for Xorg but now update manager is buggung me about there being a update for the package
[12:38] <Storkme> BlueEagle, but i added the path to ant into /etc/profile
[12:38] <erUSUL> IcemanV9: i suppose you should reinstall the firmware....
[12:38] <backz> Hi, I was installed package msttcorefonts on my desktop. But it's so ugly on black background, I think it would be anti-aliased to small fonts... how to fix it?
[12:38] <erUSUL> IcemanV9: if that is possible at all
[12:39] <gnutun> hey all; how can i tell what version of a package is currently installed?
[12:39] <IcemanV9> erUSUL:  hm. i'll check it out on its support website. thks.
[12:39] <FRET> aptitude show <package>
[12:40] <erUSUL> gnutun: apt-cache policy package
[12:40] <don_jr> if I have added universe and multiverse will it search those in the add/remove programs menu?
[12:40] <erUSUL> gnutun: apt-cache show package
[12:40] <gnomefreak> gnutun: apt-cache policy package will tell you what version you have and what version is able to be got
[12:40] <Luks2> hi.. i downloaded a software called XSI (3D Modeling/Animation/Texturer) but in the end of the installation appeared a log showing the problems of the installtion.. i have the logs here, anyone can help me?
[12:41] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell luks2 about pastebin
[12:41] <gnutun> k thanks guys
[12:41] <npster> Xubuntu is more like Dapper or Breezy ?
[12:42] <BlueEagle> npster: Xubuntu is availible in both versions.
[12:42] <Stork> doesn't crap in /etc/profile happen to the super user as well?!?!
[12:42] <gnomefreak> iso's for xubuntu only in dapper
[12:42] <npster> How do I know wich one I am using ?
[12:42] <BlueEagle> npster: Your question is like: Bananas is like Dole or Chicita?
[12:42] <k31th> Guys my ubuntu box has trouble playing video
[12:42] <k31th> in any player
[12:42] <gnomefreak> npster: where are your panels
[12:42] <k31th> its ok small
[12:42] <k31th> but uses alot of cpu
[12:42] <lhds> is it normal that my hdd temp is 50 celcius?
[12:43] <k31th> when i put it foll screen it uses 100% cpu and laggs like hell
[12:43] <Stork> k31th, drivers installed?
[12:43] <npster> gnomefreak: what ? panels. right down corner are the workspaces
[12:43] <BlueEagle> k31th: Which processor and how much ram have you got and which video driver are you using?
[12:43] <Luks2> BlueEagle, this is a server for long text/questions ?
[12:43] <BlueEagle> k31th: ...and which graphics card have you got?
[12:43] <gnomefreak> npster: what does your menu look like
[12:44] <Stork> could someone give me a hand? i edited $PATH in /etc/profile, it works fine for a normal user, but path for superuser is still the same
[12:44] <BlueEagle> luks2: Did you read the message ubotu sent you?
[12:44] <Luks2> yeap
[12:44] <BlueEagle> luks2: Then I suggest you paste the log there and then post the url here.
[12:44] <g-nome> hello, does anyone know a good (ubuntu) source for java (latest) packages?
[12:44] <k31th> BlueEagle: 2.8ghz athlong 1 gig RAM ATI card 9800 pro
[12:44] <npster> gnomefreak, it is gray, and it comes off from the top (default setting)
[12:44] <k31th> athlon
[12:44] <Luks2> ok, thanks
[12:44] <BlueEagle> k31th: Did you install the ATi drivers?
[12:44] <gnomefreak> g-nome: sun-java5-jre in multiverse
[12:44] <k31th> BlueEagle: yes
[12:44] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell k31th about ati
[12:45] <gnomefreak> npster: just applications menu?
[12:45] <BlueEagle> k31th: Are you sure you're using the ATi drivers?
[12:45] <npster> gnomefreak yes
[12:45] <gnomefreak> npster: xubuntu
[12:45] <BlueEagle> k31th: (ie. did you modify your xorg.conf to use the correct drivers?)
[12:45] <Stork> wtf
[12:45] <k31th> Yes
[12:45] <Stork> how come 'sudo' no longer requires a password?
[12:45] <npster> gnomefreak: I know that but is it Dapper or Breezy
[12:45] <k31th> maybe it fucked during the upgrade...
[12:45] <BlueEagle> stork: It's got a timeout of about 30 minutes before requireing a password again iirc.
[12:45] <gnomefreak> npster: type lsb_release -a in terminal
[12:46] <gnomefreak> k31th: watch your language
[12:46] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell k31th about language.
[12:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about language. - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:46] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell k31th about language
[12:46] <Stork> BlueEagle, even then i open a new session?
[12:46] <g-nome> gnomefreak: with that i will have the newest (or almost) java?
[12:46] <BlueEagle> stork: There is a file in your home directory that
[12:46] <gnomefreak> g-nome: yes
[12:46] <npster> it is Dapper
[12:46] <g-nome> ok thanks
[12:46] <BlueEagle> 's called .sudo_as_admin_successful
[12:46] <npster> and it doesn't install my SPCA web cam
[12:46] <gnomefreak> g-nome: if you want more up-to-date go to java.com and install it manully
[12:46] <BlueEagle> stork: It checks the timestamp of that file iirc.
[12:47] <covOPprometheus> Is there someone that really as a big experience with WLAN?
[12:47] <Luks2> BlueEagle, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21677 here is the error
[12:47] <g-nome> gnomefreak for that i know but i was looking for .deb ;-)
[12:47] <gnomefreak> g-nome: multiverse repo is only deb you will find now that im aware of
[12:47] <Docmur> Okay I downloaded this really nice BootSplash from kde-look.org but it didn't come with install instructions.
[12:47] <don_jr> okay I have downloaded 3dchess from universe.  How do I find it in my box?
[12:48] <Docmur> inside the folder there is two file rc and rcS
[12:48] <g-nome> gnomefreak: yes but not that from java.com
[12:48] <Docmur> and a folder called linux
[12:48] <Docmur> insider there is a conf file and the images
[12:48] <gnomefreak> g-nome: java.com doesnt have debs
[12:48] <gnomefreak> g-nome: they never did
[12:48] <Docmur> Anyone have a clue what I need to install the Bootsplash
[12:48] <g-nome> gnomefreak: that's what i mean!
[12:48] <gnomefreak> Docmur: define boot splash
[12:48] <BlueEagle> luks2: Well I
[12:48] <racefire> If you want to use rpms with debian, i reccomend you use alien, in the Ubuntu repos
[12:48] <BlueEagle> hmmm
[12:49] <BlueEagle> luks2: Well I've got no idea what would cause that error. :/
[12:49] <Docmur> ummm the screen when you boot that hides the startup
[12:49] <gnomefreak> g-nome: as i stated before multiverse repo will have latest version of java for your version of ubuntu
[12:49] <Docmur> with a picture
[12:49] <Luks2> BlueEagle,  thanks anyway ;)
[12:49] <gnomefreak> Docmur: the one that fill whole screen?
[12:49] <g-nome> gnomefreak: anyway when typing "java --version" i have still 1.4.2. !?
[12:49] <Docmur> Yes
[12:49] <gnomefreak> !usplash
[12:49] <ubotu> usplash is the start-up splash (before GNOME/KDE appears) in Ubuntu. To customize it, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[12:49] <gnomefreak> Docmur: read that
[12:49] <Docmur> okay
[12:50] <gnomefreak> g-nome: did you run sudo update-alternatives --config java
[12:50] <talljon84> I'm looking to reimage my machine and trying to decide whether to use Kubuntu or Ubuntu.  For the purposes of XGL, which will work better and be more stable?
[12:50] <gnomefreak> g-nome: after you instaled it
[12:50] <Luks2> I tried t install the software called XSI, and in the end appeared this problem --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21677  anyone can help me ?
[12:50] <gnomefreak> g-nome: </hint> if not, now would be a good time <hint/>
[12:50] <don_jr> how do I find software I downloaded from universe?
[12:51] <ppd> hello. does anyone here have experience with xdmcp and gdm?
[12:51] <thompa> does anyone know how to get color in vim?
[12:51] <rnd_null> hmm...I seem to have forgotten where the file is that has my device settings....'lil help?
[12:51] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell ppd about anyone
[12:51] <thompa> .vimrc does not seem to exist
[12:51] <natural20> so i'm following some DNS and Router advice I found in the ubuntu forums.  It's telling me to "go to synaptic and activate the universe mirrors."   How do I do that?
[12:51] <soiesle> What's the best CD ripping tool for Linux?
[12:51] <g-nome> gnomefreak: ok now i did: i selected the last one "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java"
[12:51] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell natural20 about easysource
[12:51] <eclipse_> i dont understand how to install programs....gah im so frustrated
[12:51] <g-nome> gnomefreak: but now it doesn't recognize "java --version" anymore
[12:51] <tuxtux> bye bye at all
[12:52] <BlueEagle> !install
[12:52] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[12:52] <BlueEagle> hmm..
[12:52] <BlueEagle> wrong factoid. :)
[12:52] <fuoco> does dapper has any bluetooth support ?
[12:52] <djm62> eclipse_: there are lots of ways to install programs.  have you tried System->Administration->Synaptic?
[12:52] <bluefox83> fuoco, it's built into the kernel...
[12:53] <fuoco> bluefox83: i know, i mean the userspace parts ?
[12:53] <ppd> ok. do you know a minimal linux system on floppy that supports logging into gdm via xdmcp ?
[12:53] <djm62> fuoco: yes, if you want to transfer files and stuff the key word is obex (search for obex)
[12:53] <don_jr> djm62 I used synaptic to get a couple things, but now I can't find them on my box...how do I go about doing that?
[12:53] <g-nome> gnomefreak: problem solved, it is "-showversion" now, thanks
[12:53] <ppd> basic linux is great but it simply doesn't want to establish a connection to gdm with xvesa
[12:54] <thompa> or does anyone know where the config file is for vim or whats it called in ubuntu?
[12:54] <fuoco> djm62: what about synchronizing ?
[12:54] <djm62> don_jr: what things are they? at the lowest level you could type the names in at the terminal
[12:54] <eclipse_> all i want to do is istall a D++ hub and use the comp to run the hub....
[12:54] <don_jr> 3dchess iso ne of them, and a couple others.  Just type in the name and that's it?
[12:54] <eclipse_> you would think it could be simple...but no
[12:54] <natural20> BlueEagle, I don't undertand how selecting sources helps me activate universe mirrors. (I dont' even know what these things are.)
[12:54] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: Try !easysource for one
[12:54] <djm62> fuoco: I haven't had much luck with synchronising...except with a kde utility whose name escapes me.  something "k" something "sync"
[12:54] <eclipse_> !easysource
[12:55] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:55] <g-nome> how can i search in apt-get?
[12:55] <fuoco> djm62: i use gnome... :(
[12:55] <Docmur> to search in apt
[12:55] <Docmur> just
[12:55] <Docmur> apt-cache search
[12:55] <Docmur> what is libogl-dev
[12:55] <eclipse_> :'(
[12:55] <djm62> fuoco: oh! there's nothing to stop you using a kde app in gnome: it's just less aesthetically pleasing
[12:55] <eclipse_> i dont get it
[12:55] <don_jr> djm62 what command do I need to run the program? just typing the name doesn't do anything
[12:55] <BlueEagle> natural20: Well if you go to the source-o-matic it will help you generate a sources.list file that goes in /etc/apt. There you can choose to have universe and multiverse enabled. It also helps you find your closest mirrors.
[12:55] <geokok> if i have the kde libraries installed because of a certain app do these libs get loaded always or just when i run the app?
[12:55] <djm62> don_jr: what app is it?
[12:56] <fuoco> djm62: i know, that's the issue :)
[12:56] <geokok> a front end for octave
[12:56] <don_jr> djm62 3dchess
[12:56] <djm62> don_jr: type "apropos chess" to find the command name
[12:56] <natural20> BlueEagle, so once i have a source list, i save it as a txt file in /etc/apt
[12:57] <bluefox83> natural20, save it as source.list in /etc/apt
[12:57] <djm62> don_jr: although, hasn't it appeared in Applications->Games ?
[12:57] <twofry> hello: I've got a 144GB hard disk. I've only got 20GB of files but Ubuntu says that I've used 103.7GB. What could be taking up the free space?
[12:57] <BlueEagle> natural20: save it as /etc/apt/sources.list (back up the old one before replacing it and you will need root access to replace the file.)
[12:57] <don_jr> djm62 no it's not in the applications->games.  that's why "m not sure if it got loaded or not....box is green in synoptic like I have it, but the apropos command didn't show it either
[12:58] <BlueEagle> twofry: df is not very accurate tbh.
[12:58] <twofry> blueEagle: that's quite a big discrepency! So it should be alright?
[12:59] <natural20> BlueEagle, how do i get around /etc/apt being su protected?
[12:59] <djm62> don_jr: hang on, I'm installing it to see if anything unusual comes up
[12:59] <natural20> BlueEagle, errr.  that's not what i mean
[12:59] <BlueEagle> twofry: Well you could be holding a giant cache of .deb files from installing and/or upgrading.
[12:59] <don_jr> djm62 okay, that's just one of the ones I've gotten....but I cna't find it
[12:59] <BlueEagle> natural20: sudo is your friend.
[01:00] <geokok> do KDE libs get loaded always on gnome or only when i start the app that installed them?
[01:00] <natural20> BlueEagle, but i don't know where to type sudo
[01:00] <albacker> guys i installed flashplugin-nonfree and followed some other tutos, but flash doesnt seem working ?! whats the problem ?
[01:00] <djm62> don_jr: <sigh> 3Dc is the name of the 3d chess one
[01:00] <don_jr> djm62 how did you find that out?  I"m totally new to nix systems, this is my first day on
[01:00] <BlueEagle> natural20: I see. When you want to execute a command as root you prefix the command with sudo like: sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:01] <yango> hello... I've been trying Picasa for Linux and it's awfully slow with a collection of about 2500 images... has anyone else stumbled upon this and solved it? :)
[01:01] <geokok> @yango: yes...try f-spot
[01:01] <BlueEagle> !info picasa
[01:01] <ubotu> Package picasa does not exist in dapper
[01:01] <natural20> BlueEagle, so there is no way to use sudo when using the GUI?  I'm not versed in unix commands
[01:01] <djm62> don_jr: tab completion: if you type part of a command (ie any program name) and press tab it gives you a list of stuff starting with that.  I typed "3<tab>" and that came up
[01:01] <albacker> guys i installed flashplugin-nonfree and followed some other tutos, but flash doesnt seem working ?! whats the problem ?
[01:01] <twofry> blueEagle: I just tried clearing the cache. No difference. I am actually using Baobab to check. But df and the Gnome Disk Manager is consistent
[01:01] <djm62> don_jr: tab completion is more useful than it sounds at first...
[01:01] <BlueEagle> natural20: I do not recomend opening nautilus in root-mode as it is very very very easy to mess up your system.
[01:02] <don_jr> djm62 that helps.  Thank you

[01:02] <ScheissNUssen> Hello, I download my files using newsgroup software... I recently have downloaded a set of files that will not extract properly..    I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge of a "Parity" program (a file fixer so to speak) ??? I downloaded Par2 and Parchive yet do not understand how to use them
[01:02] <rnd_null> yeah, i just read somewhere that picasa was around
[01:02] <BlueEagle> natural20: However if you do appreciate the dangers and close it after you're done you can start a root-browser by pressing ALT+F2 and typing in: gksudo nautilus
[01:02] <ScheissNUssen> can anyone help please
[01:02] <geokok> Try f-spot ....its awesome!!
[01:02] <rdz> geokok, i don't have it in my repository...
[01:02] <ScheissNUssen> ?
[01:03] <geokok> give me a sec...
[01:03] <robin_> Hi
[01:03] <djm62> ubuntu is awesome
[01:03] <don_jr> djm62 odd it must not have gotten downloaded, I don't have anything by that name showing
[01:03] <Feldma1> hello
[01:03] <robin_> :D
[01:03] <Luks2> hello
[01:03] <Feldma1> does anyone know if spaces work in a directory name in the terminal?
[01:03] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell rdz about easysource
[01:04] <robin_> How can I enble nvidia graphics
[01:04] <Feldma1> something like 'cd /home/Two Words/
[01:04] <Feldma1> would that work?
[01:04] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell robin_ about nvidia
[01:04] <yango> geokok: installing f-spot on the spot
[01:04] <geokok> Good ..f-spot is amazing
[01:04] <djm62> don_jr: you know that capitalisation matters? have you tried starting the terminal again (tab completion doesn't update instantly)?  if you type "3Dc" and it's installed it should run
[01:04] <BlueEagle> robin_: if you've got the nvidia drivers completely installed open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit driver "nv" to read driver "nvidia"
[01:04] <don_jr> djm62 ok will try that
[01:04] <geokok> soryr my fault. I got picasa from here: http://picasa.google.com/linux/download.html....There is a deb to download
[01:05] <yango> nerophibia: I didn't like digikam much... I use gphoto2 for basic downloading and file handling and then was trying to picasa...
[01:05] <don_jr> djm62 Okay, mental note made, case-sensitivity is something to pay attention to1 :)
[01:05] <BlueEagle> robin_: also try: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[01:05] <twofry> robin_: here's a good resource: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:05] <robin_> ok
[01:05] <NineTeen67Comet> geokok: I did my install with automatix .. picasa and googleearth are on there ..
[01:05] <Feldma1> hello?
[01:05] <robin_> it asks me for password
[01:05] <robin_> in terminal
[01:05] <Feldma1> can anyone help me?
[01:06] <robin_> and I can't type anything in password field
[01:06] <geokok> yeah well ...google is everywhere....lol
[01:06] <djm62> don_jr: and almost all the time, commands are lower case: 3Dc is unusual (it's a cultural thing)
[01:06] <Feldma1> something like 'cd /home/Two Words/' would that work in the terminal? since... it's two words and all
[01:06] <Musashi328> robin_it is just asking for your password
[01:06] <geokok> f-spot works as picasa should
[01:06] <bluefox83> natural20, what should the vertical and horizontal ranges be for a 20 inch tv?
[01:06] <BlueEagle> robin_: You can't type anything there or you aren't getting any visual feedback when typing stuff there? (the latter is very common)
[01:06] <NineTeen67Comet> robin_: When you type in the pw field, the cursor will not move .. it's a security thing .. it's reading your key strokes though ..
[01:06] <bluefox83> er, sync and refersh ranges
[01:06] <bluefox83> *refresh
[01:07] <robin_> ok
[01:07] <Feldma1> CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME?
[01:07] <djm62> Feldma1: yeah, but you need to put a \ before the space: "cd /mnt/Two\ Words/"
[01:07] <UNDERsoN> what is diferent in compiz and compiz vanila
[01:07] <Feldma1> k
[01:07] <Feldma1> thank you
[01:07] <natural20> bluefox83, no idea
[01:07] <djm62> Feldma1: no need for caps, you're among friends ;)
[01:07] <robin_> It would be cooler if you could just choose nvidia in some options dialog
[01:07] <BlueEagle> underson: I think people in #ubuntu-xgl can give you a definitive answer. One should be more stable but less supported than the other.
[01:08] <UNDERsoN> On Ubuntu Glx amazine silence )
[01:08] <Musashi328> doesn't easyubuntu give the option to load the nvidia driver and edit the files for you or do you still have to edit the files
[01:08] <FRET> good night all....
[01:08] <BlueEagle> underson: ubuntu-glx or ubuntu-xgl?
[01:08] <robin_> Can I use wine to play my legal half-life 2?
[01:09] <UNDERsoN> BlueEagle ubuntu-xgl sory )
[01:09] <BlueEagle> robin_: You might need cedega for that one as it's using direct-x afaik.
[01:09] <BlueEagle> !cedega
[01:09] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on wine, aimed at running windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[01:09] <geokok> Do KDE libs load on startup at gnome once installed or only when a related app is lanched?PLease.....someone....:(
[01:09] <androide> hello, i'm from the livecd and want to install grub on my/dev/hda
[01:09] <androide> how i can do that?
[01:09] <androide> grub-install doesn't works
[01:09] <BlueEagle> geokok: QT is only loaded when an app requires QT. The same goes for sycoca.
[01:10] <UNDERsoN> Maybee somebody know chanel of xgl+compiz because on ubuntu-xgl silence
[01:10] <geokok> thanks blue!
[01:10] <BlueEagle> androide: You'll need to mount the partition(s) where you installed ubuntu and then bind mount /dev/ and /proc/ to the appropriate locations then chroot into the point where you mounted your linux filesystem and then you can run grub_install
[01:10] <geokok> since u talk about xlg, aiglx seems to be able to do everything that xgl does in recent videos and developers say its better as a method
[01:10] <Pulshion> does anyone know any apps that display temperature, something like atitool + speed fan but for ubuntu, is there atitool for linux? i love that prog?
[01:11] <androide> ok, let's try it
[01:11] <BlueEagle> androide: The easier way is to get the alternat install cd which has got options for repairing your boot loader.
[01:11] <androide> how i bind them?
[01:11] <androide> i don't have that cds
[01:11] <androide> i will use the hard way
[01:11] <BlueEagle> androide: mount -bind /dev/ /mnt/dev
[01:12] <BlueEagle> androide: assuming you mount your linux filesystem on /mnt
[01:12] <robin_> now downloading legacy
[01:12] <geokok> is there a downside in enabling xattr for ext3 filesystem?
[01:12] <androide> ok
[01:12] <redcard> Darn.  Amarok 1.4.2 isn't out for PPC (at least not in a repo binary form)
[01:12] <g-nome> how can i make  a simple script for: a "going to dir ~/test/" and then "./tests" (it's a prog)?
[01:12] <UNDERsoN> When Ubuntu6.06+xgl would be released? not beta or so on
[01:12] <redcard> The one that's up is held back
[01:13] <acidian> if Ive downloaded some drivers... how do I install them? XD
[01:13] <BlueEagle> underson: As a general rule: Most people that use XGL and compiz are also found on #ubuntu-xgl as well as in here.
[01:13] <robin_> XD
[01:13] <ompaul> !timetables
[01:13] <BlueEagle> acidian: It really depends on the driver in question.
[01:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about timetables - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:13] <ompaul> !timetable
[01:13] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more. Edgy schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[01:13] <androide> BlueEagle: when i try "mount -bind /dev/ /mnt/dev" doesn't works
[01:13] <BlueEagle> androide: Ahh, that can happen.
[01:13] <eetfunk> where can i find a good "command line ubuntu for dummies" tutorial?
[01:13] <ompaul> UNDERsoN, ^^ that is not going to happen in 6.06 but it will be in edgy not in universe but in multiverse
[01:13] <BlueEagle> androide: not sure how I fixed that tho. :/
[01:14] <acidian> BlueEagle: its for my webcam, and there are 4 files, 2 without extension, one with extension .c and one with extension .h
[01:14] <ompaul> !CLI
[01:14] <androide> 
[01:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about CLI - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:14] <ompaul> !cli
[01:14] <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
[01:14] <acidian> one of them is called makefile
[01:14] <Pulshion> does anyone know any apps that display temperature, something like atitool + speed fan but for ubuntu, is there atitool for linux? i love that prog?
[01:14] <geokok> As always the ubuntu community is great. Thanks all and good night!
[01:14] <ebel> OK, has anyone here install ubuntu on an iBook, and if so, do they know how to solve that damned bootloader problem?!
[01:14] <BlueEagle> androide: you said you were installing on /dev/hda?
[01:14] <Daemoz> Pulshion: gkrellm
[01:14] <mark06> I'm having audio issues.  Can anyone help?
[01:14] <robin_> GLX LEGACY installed :D now what please someone
[01:14] <BlueEagle> androide: ok then you'll probably just need this: sudo mount -t proc /mnt/proc
[01:15] <BlueEagle> androide: then you should be good to chroot and run sudo grub
[01:15] <BlueEagle> androide: I prefer using the grub command line instead of grub-install
[01:15] <BlueEagle> androide: I cannot guarantee that grub-install won't be confused by the chroot
[01:16] <zelevw> hi..after an upgrade today I lost my window frames when running compiz...aiglx...is this happening to anyone else?
[01:16] <acidian> I need to compile the drivers first it seems
[01:16] <androide> i should "sudo mount -t proc /mnt/proc" after sudo mount -t [filesystem]  /dev/[myunbut'sinstalationdevice]  [mountpoint]  ?
[01:17] <UNDERsoN> ompaul UNDERsoN, ^^ that is not going to happen in 6.06 but it will be in edgy not in universe but in multiverse>> sory I heared that Ubuntu+xgl6.06 released in July
[01:18] <ompaul> UNDERsoN, it was so it will not be included in that
[01:18] <mark06> hi all... I installed 6.06 and I don't have sound.  Can anyone help?

[01:18] <ompaul> UNDERsoN, read the link the bot sent you
[01:18] <Kragnerac> !ping
[01:18] <ubotu> ping: unknown host
[01:18] <BlueEagle> mark06: Are you getting any error messages? Does ubuntu play a sound when you log in?

[01:19] <Luks2> BlueEagle,  me again hehe.. look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21679 i saw know that ubuntu's version isnt available.. but there is something in the homepage saying that i can run in the ubuntu if i install somethings, isnt it? (my english isnt very good, sory)
[01:19] <Luks2> now*
[01:19] <mark06> BlueEagle: no not at all
[01:19] <zelevw> hi..after an upgrade today I lost my window frames when running compiz...aiglx...is this happening to anyone else? it had been working flawlessly for 4 months...
[01:19] <Kragnerac> zelevw: I had the exact same problem. What card do you have?
[01:19] <izm99> jman, lupine: fyi: it wasn't the ram.  it was the xorg.conf.  >.<  doh.  thanks, anyways.
[01:19] <BlueEagle> luks2: I've never used that application so I really would not know. Also if it tells you to install something then I suggest you attempt to install what it's telling you to install and then try to compile or install the application again.
[01:20] <BlueEagle> mark06: no, not at all what? No error messages or no sound on login?
[01:20] <zelevw> kragnerac: centrino laptop...
[01:20] <gb453> how do i determine my driver name for wpa_supplicant?
[01:20] <UNDERsoN> zelevw try to run script which runing our comiz effect's ( thefuture like on wiki or so on)
[01:20] <zelevw> kragnerac: intel iSomething
[01:20] <Kragnerac> zelevw: i810?
[01:20] <mark06> BlueEagle: I haven't heard one sound other than the beep from the motherboard when starting up
[01:20] <Kragnerac> Hmm.
[01:20] <zelevw> kragnerac: how can i tell?
[01:21] <Kragnerac> zelevw: Did you follow the guide on the ubuntu forums?
[01:21] <zelevw> kragnerac: it has been running flawlessly for 4 months...
[01:21] <cojak> Hi, I just have a quick question. I cannot change the default "open with" program. (right-click -> properties -> open with tab) Any one else with the same problem?
[01:22] <Luks2> BlueEagle,  ok.. but u know this application that there are in the site?
[01:22] <BlueEagle> mark06: I see. Have you got more than one sound card (ie. one integrated on the motherboard and one in a PCI slot)?
[01:22] <zelevw> kragnerac:  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
[01:22] <BlueEagle> luks2: I haven't been to the site so I wouldn't know.
[01:22] <deltab> why might my keyboard have started misbehaving? keys take two seconds to responnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd, annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd sometimes repeat by themselveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
[01:22] <Luks2> BlueEagle, http://www.softimage.com/products/xsi/system_requirements/linux/Default.aspx
[01:22] <BlueEagle> deltab: System -> Settings -> Keyboard
[01:22] <Kragnerac> zelevw: What did you upgrade?
[01:23] <ebel> deltab: I had a similar problem with a laptop keyboard. I gently removed the keyboard and cleaned all the crumbs out from inside it.
[01:23] <robin_> OHNO! how do I continue a bittorent transmission?!
[01:23] <hangfire> is it possible to run ubuntu purely in command line mode?
[01:23] <UNDERsoN> hangfire yes
[01:23] <Kragnerac> hangfire: CTRL+ALT+F1
[01:23] <deltab> ebel: including the ttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttwo-second delay?
[01:23] <hangfire> thanks Kragnerac
[01:24] <UNDERsoN> deltab you mesages is fun ))
[01:24] <ebel> deltab: see if you have any accessibility keyboard options turned on. If not try cleaning it.
[01:24] <UNDERsoN> try to clean your keyboard
[01:24] <robin_>  OHNO! how do I continue a bittorent transmission?!
[01:25] <deltab> my USB DVB is no longer working either
[01:25] <ompaul> robin_, start it again
[01:25] <deltab> the keybbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbboard is PS/2
[01:25] <jjholt> anyone know of a good Xgl howto?
[01:25] <UNDERsoN> robin_ if your clien can
[01:25] <UNDERsoN> robin_ if your client can
[01:25] <robin_> it asks for a meta file
[01:25] <ebel> robin_: what do you mean? normally you can resume a BT download...
[01:25] <iceman> Whats hyperthreading support like ?
[01:25] <BlueEagle> luks2: A) Your kernel should be newer than 2.6.11 (not sure why they include subversions tho). B) You're probably using xorg and not xfree86.
[01:25] <ompaul> deltab, stop typing here now please and use the back space before you hit enter again or get a new keyboard thanks
[01:26] <cojak> jjholt: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Xgl.2FCompiz_.28Nvidia.29
[01:26] <R0bin> where is bittorrent's directory
[01:26] <Luks2> BlueEagle, i dont know what this means but.. thanks hehe :/
[01:26] <BlueEagle> luks2: However that might not matter. What you need to do is to make sure that the other required components are installed like libjpg, libncurses, fam-server or gamin, sed, texutils, fileutils, xinetd
[01:26] <UNDERsoN> ompaul backspace can repeat to )
[01:26] <dougalater> can some one direct me to the desktop forum... after my upgrades i cant get my desktop to come up...
[01:27] <ompaul> UNDERsoN, and then you get to repeat the typing exercise again :) all good stuff
[01:27] <R0bin> hey where is BT's directory
[01:27] <Luks2> BlueEagle, how i do this ?
[01:27] <Luks2> =/
[01:27] <UNDERsoN> R0bin use a good clien Azureus Ktortent Utorrent or so on
[01:27] <BlueEagle> luks2: try this: sudo aptitude install libjpeg libncurses fam-server texutils fileutils
[01:27] <R0bin> ok
[01:27] <ompaul> R0bin, when you set it to be usually home or desktop
[01:27] <R0bin> so I have to restart the download?
[01:27] <BlueEagle> luks2: that should install anything that's missing or report an error about not being  able to find one of the packages.
[01:27] <ebel> R0bin: no, normally you can resume it where you left off.
[01:27] <iceman> Whats Linux "Support for Hyperthreading like ?
[01:27] <deltab> ompaul: yeah, becuase I'm enjoying that so much
[01:27] <ompaul> it will pick up hwere you left off - if you point it where the other file is
[01:27] <BlueEagle> luks2: also I assume you had root privileges when you attempted to install the app.
[01:28] <BlueEagle> luks2: You did have root privileges when you attempted to install, didn't you?
[01:28] <Luks2> yep
[01:28] <R0bin> thanks
[01:28] <deltab> turning off autorepeat seems to have fixed that, but I still get a two-second delay
[01:28] <BlueEagle> deltab: wireless?
[01:29] <R0bin> btw when I tried to enable nvidia thing the terminal tells me something about X11
[01:29] <deltab> no
[01:29] <ironmc> I am trying to install Lopster but I get a message saying I need GTK  After checking it seems I have GTK  any thougts  thanks
[01:29] <BlueEagle> deltab: ever spilt coke in your keyboard?
[01:29] <deltab> and not 600 000 km away
[01:29] <deltab> no
[01:29] <door> ironmc:  you probably need to install the development libraries
[01:29] <ebel> deltab: is there another keyboard you can test? It could be the computer or the keyboard that's at fault.
[01:29] <deltab> it started doing this while I was typing
[01:29] <cojak> Is there a terminal command to manually change the default "open with" program?
[01:30] <ironmc> door: thanks I'll try that
[01:30] <door> ironmc:  search for them in synaptic
[01:30] <BlueEagle> deltab: Did you check system->settings->keyboard ?
[01:30] <ironmc> Yea I have it open already  thanks
[01:30] <BlueEagle> deltab: it should have settings for the initial delay.
[01:30] <liketoprogram> heya =)  this is a gnome/enlightenment question..      hello!   I'm wondering where/what to run, to edit my desktops in enlightenment. i currently have 2 desktops, with 2 screens each.  I would like  4x4  desktops of 4x4 screens, if possible.  i remember a long time ago editing/modifying this stuff but i forget how..  thank you!
[01:30] <door> ironmc:  shiny
[01:30] <ompaul> deltab, the other option is that your machine is under heavy load - too many applications open, or something has gone funny in X you could restart X and see if it goes away
[01:30] <Luks2> BlueEagle,  i didnt have some apllication.. but i think that the linux intalled all that i asked now.. should i try to install now ?
[01:30] <deltab> BlueEagle: I've turned autorepeat off
[01:31] <BlueEagle> luks2: only if you want it installed would it be a good idea to try to install it now. :)
[01:31] <eclipse_> i hate linux....so damn confusing
[01:31] <eclipse_> i dont get the who apt-get thing
[01:31] <eclipse_> or what program to use
[01:31] <eclipse_> and things arent even loading for me...
[01:31] <liketoprogram> eclipse_ -- if you are patient with it it will pay off
[01:31] <iceman> Wow i'm impressed, Ubuntu overtook Debian in the IRC
[01:31] <deltab> BlueEagle: but there's still a two-second delay between pressing a key and programs responding to it
[01:31] <Luks2> BlueEagle,  ahhahahah, thanks for everything ;)
[01:31] <liketoprogram> it is the way of  the future =)
[01:31] <door> eclipse:  what in particular is the problem?
[01:31] <Luks2> BlackHand,  i'll try now
[01:31] <BlueEagle> deltab: Does this apply to all keys or just the function keys and the escape key?
[01:31] <ebel> eclipse_: once you gety used to installing programmes with apt-get you'll never go back. :)
[01:31] <deltab> all keys
[01:32] <quintin> Why do I have to add universe and multiverse each time I want to install something from there?
[01:32] <eclipse_> ebel:  but i dont get how to do it in the first place
[01:32] <hangfire> once I get into commandline mode with ctl alt F1, how do I get back out into the gui? (I had to restart my comp to get out )
[01:32] <BlackHand> ?
[01:32] <BlueEagle> deltab: Oh.. Is it the same in the console or is it just in X? (press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get the console and then press ALT+F7 to return to X)
[01:32] <ebel> eclipse_: apt-get install (programmename)
[01:32] <ebel> eclipse_: and it's installed....
[01:33] <deltab> hangfire: they're not in or out, but side by side
[01:33] <HeathenDan> i prefer aptitude
[01:33] <eclipse_> yea...but its not working...
[01:33] <acidian> anyone know how to edit boot.ini in windows to include a linux installation on another disk?
[01:33] <deltab> hangfire: the GUI is probably on alt-f7
[01:33] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: alternately you can use the add/remove sofware application found in your system menu or synaptic which is a more advanced installer.
[01:33] <eclipse_> ebel: using terminal right...
[01:33] <deltab> or alt-f8
[01:33] <hangfire> ok thanks deltab
[01:33] <ebel> eclipse_: yeah. What do you mean it's not working.
[01:33] <djm62> eclipse_: what goes wrong? if you type "sudo apt-get install inkscape" where does it go wrong?
[01:33] <eclipse_> synaptic wont open...
[01:34] <door> eclipse:  are you using gksudo to open it? you do need to have superuser privileges...
[01:34] <ebel> eclipse_: does it give any kind of error message? Usuaully the error messages are descriptive.
[01:34] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: How do you attempt to start synaptic?
[01:34] <R0bin> Why can't I play DVD movies in VLC? :(
[01:34] <ootput> any of you know where to place themes for gaim (2.00) ?
[01:35] <BlueEagle> r0bin: There's been an unfortunate incident with the person hosting cyberfunk.org (he held amongst other things libdvdcss iirc)
[01:35] <Centaur5> I'm having a hard time getting WPA to work on Dapper with my intel 3945 card.  Could anybody give me an idea what to do?
[01:35] <eclipse_> it says unable to lookup via ghostbyname(1)
[01:35] <R0bin> So there's no way to play dvd's?
[01:35] <BlueEagle> r0bin: You'll need to get that from another source. (google libdvdcss.deb or something similar)
[01:35] <eclipse_> BlueEagle:  i try to do it through going to system on the top of the screen
[01:35] <deltab> BlueEagle: same in console, but while there I saw kernel messages about usb remote control events
[01:35] <BlueEagle> deltab: Is it a PS2 or USB keyboard?
[01:35] <deltab> PS/2
[01:36] <deltab> [5160530.128000]  dvb-usb: error while querying for an remote control event.
[01:36] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: are you prompted for a password?
[01:36] <djm62> eclipse_: have you edited /etc/network/interfaces at all?
[01:36] <eclipse_> BlueEagle:  no
[01:36] <eclipse_> djm62:  i dont know what that is....so no
[01:36] <BlueEagle> deltab: Have you got any USB devices that might cause that?
[01:36] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[01:36] <R0bin> those nvidia drivers
[01:36] <ebel> eclipse_: can you use aptitude from the command line?
[01:36] <R0bin> what is X11
[01:37] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: try this: press ALT+F2 to open the run-dialog and type: gksudo synaptic
[01:37] <deltab> BlueEagle: a dvb usb box that is no longer working
[01:37] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: that should in theory open a password dialog.
[01:37] <deltab> since this started
[01:37] <BlueEagle> deltab: It might be prudent to attempt disconnecting it. :)
[01:37] <deltab> I unloaded the driver and the messages stopped
[01:38] <ebel> R0bin: X11 = graphics on linux. Linux is very modular, so the graphics part is a seperate part itself.
[01:38] <deltab> and the keyboard's back to normal!
[01:38] <eclipse_> it didnt do anything
[01:38] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: if that doesn't work try removing ~/.sudo_as_admin_successful (press CTRL+H to show hidden files in the file browser)
[01:38] <eclipse_> it said on the bottom in a tab that it was opening...and then nothing happend
[01:38] <ebel> R0bin: you don't have to run graphics, e.g. many server don't, cause they don't need them and it's a waste. It's all about choice.
[01:39] <R0bin> Ok, but if I want to play 3D games I have to use Nvidia-Glx right?
[01:39] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: I see.
[01:40] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: Did you remove .sudo_as_admin_successful from your home directory?
[01:40] <eclipse_> ok i deleated it
[01:40] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: ok, try running: gksudo synaptic again
[01:40] <R0bin> I get lots of Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:40] <ebel> R0bin: yeah you'd need hardware accelerated graphics to play some games.
[01:40] <BlueEagle> r0bin: what does glxinfo or fglrxinfo tell you?
[01:41] <R0bin> w8 :)
[01:41] <BlueEagle> r0bin: ..and did you install the ATi drivers as described in !ati?
[01:41] <BlueEagle> !ati
[01:41] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:41] <R0bin> Maybe I'll have to "otherwise edit manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the Driver section"
[01:41] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: any luck?
[01:42] <quintin> I have installed some KDE apps in default ubuntu
[01:42] <quintin> and I can't find them on desktop sometimes
[01:42] <eclipse_> still didnt work
[01:42] <Inzoy> hello
[01:42] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: ok. Open a terminal and type: ps aux|grep synaptic
[01:42] <blay_> 'ello all
[01:42] <Musashi328> quintin sometimes you have toadd them manually to the menu
[01:42] <Inzoy> need some help, anyone available?
[01:43] <Inzoy> *problem with wpa
[01:43] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: how many lines did that return? (please don't past all of them in here)
[01:43] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell inzoy about anyone
[01:43] <Luks2> BlueEagle, the same problems =/
[01:44] <Luks2> BlueEagle, but very thank you.. u tried anyway :]

[01:45] <javierss> Hi, i have a problem im not install the flash plugin anybody said the name of the package of plugin flash of firefox in the repositories
[01:45] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: Ehh.. Are you running off the live cd?
[01:45] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: Either that or something serious is wrong with your system.
[01:45] <eclipse_> no its installed...
[01:45] <R0bin> I can't get this to work! :(
[01:45] <Inzoy> i tried using wpa_supplicant
[01:46] <ebel> javierss: I think the name is libflash-mozplugin or similar
[01:46] <javierss> ebel thns
[01:46] <eclipse_> i tried to reinstall...but it wouldent do it
[01:46] <unio> how do i get a java runtime enviorment? i tried the java.com site (in the downloads section that was listed for 'Manual Install' when 'Install missing plugins...' couldn't install a JRE. i couldn't find a package either >_<
[01:46] <eclipse_> i put the cd in and it wouldent boot and instal
[01:46] <eclipse_> and it wont read the cd rom
[01:46] <eclipse_> says some bs
[01:46] <door> unio:  I would suggest automatix
[01:46] <UNDERsoN> Somebody Tell me I asked on Ubuntu-Xgl and on #Xgl noone don't tell me what is diferent in compiz and compiz-vanilla
[01:46] <unio> door: thanks, i'll look it up and install it =)
[01:47] <R0bin> when I try glxinfo | grep rendering it returns lots of errors HELP
[01:47] <three> unio: I hate to sy this and it may start a flame war but Automatix will do it
[01:47] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: Please put your /etc/hosts file on pastebin
[01:47] <door> unio:  here's the line for your /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:47] <Inzoy> good documentation on this matter is nowhere to be found
[01:47] <door> unio:  deb http://www.beerorkid.com/automatix/apt dapper main
[01:47] <R0bin> like this Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:48] <eclipse_> how do i do that?
[01:48] <three> R0bin, are you totally updated, there was a really bad xorg update not too long ago
[01:48] <door> Inzoy:  this may sound like a stupid question, but do you know for a fact that your card is automatically supported by linux?
[01:48] <door> Inzoy:  if not, you might have to install ndiswrapper
[01:48] <Inzoy> it is supported
[01:48] <door> ah
[01:48] <Inzoy> it works perfectly
[01:48] <shray> hi, I think the ubuntu livecd I am using is unable to use gparted to partition my harddrive during the installation
[01:48] <R0bin> I don't know!
[01:48] <don_jr> which would be easier for me to learn to use being a totla newb to ubuntu, bash or zsh?
[01:48] <shray> it seems to lag on the partition manager screen
[01:48] <door> Inzoy:  shiny...sorry, I don't know what to say, then...
[01:48] <R0bin> I downloaded all the latest updates
[01:48] <shray> any ideas what to do ?
[01:49] <bur[n] er> shray: qtparted via kubuntu? :)
[01:49] <Inzoy> but just on open and wep-protected networks
[01:49] <three> R0bin: ok, do you have your graphics driver installed
[01:49] <shray> bur[n] er: I think I'm having trouble finding the mount point for my SATA drive
[01:49] <R0bin> Nvidia-Glx
[01:49] <shray> bur[n] er: It detects the size of the drive and the name in the system analyzer but I can't seem to find the mountpoint
[01:50] <BlueEagle> eclipse_: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91455&page=2 and http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-188337.html might help
[01:50] <three> R0bin: are you sure it installed correctly, I had the sme problem when I recently installed and it ws because I didn't get the driver installed right
[01:50] <Zebedee> is anyone there???
[01:51] <R0bin> ok' I'll re install it
[01:51] <thrghpt> i'm back
[01:51] <Inzoy> any ideas? its not worth downgrading the network security for that matter
[01:51] <theine> shray: where do you see the correct size is detected?
[01:51] <bur[n] er> shray: mount points don't matter when partitioning... partitioners don't care if something is mounted or not
[01:51] <BlueEagle> zebedee: Did you actually have a question?
[01:51] <unio> YES! it worked :D, thanks door and three :)
[01:51] <shray> theine: the screen before the qparted one..
[01:51] <shray> bur[n] er: so how else can I install this thing? =)
[01:52] <ebel> bur[n] er: some partitioners care. It's always good to have it not mounted before partitioning.
[01:52] <three> R0bin: I used Automatix, but I know Bumps has it in there also, try one of those
[01:52] <bur[n] er> shray: try qtparted... sometimes gparted can't read windows created partition tables
[01:52] <R0bin> where
[01:52] <three> R0bin: it'll save you some typing
[01:52] <BlueEagle> !automatix
[01:52] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[01:52] <eclipse_> ok...thanks ill take a look
[01:52] <shray> bur[n] er: can I apt-get install that in livecd mode?
[01:52] <R0bin> I use the packet mangaer lol
[01:52] <bur[n] er> shray: try it :)  no idea
[01:52] <bur[n] er> shray: and try unmounting as suggested
[01:53] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[01:53] <ebel> shray: yes you can apt-get stuff in the livecd.
[01:53] <R0bin> So when I have the latest GXL, what do I do next three?
[01:53] <Zebedee> I have a query, how do I change my username from oem to my own name and officially join ubuntoo  :-)
[01:53] <bur[n] er> shray: sudo umount -a  <--this unmounts all drives
[01:53] <bur[n] er> or gksudo I suppose if yer a gui guy
[01:53] <three> R0bin, you should be redy to go then
[01:53] <bur[n] er> :)
[01:54] <R0bin> Can I test with a app
[01:54] <three> r0bin: glx gears is  good test
[01:54] <modplug_> how can i fix this? cgwd-themes: Depends: cgwd (>= 0.54) but 0.53 is to be installed
[01:54] <R0bin> ok
[01:55] <three> r0bin: im not sure of the commnd tho
[01:55] <ebel> Zebedee: by editing /etc/passwd you can change your username,.
[01:55] <kyja> Zebedee: sudo oem-config-prepare
[01:55] <R0bin> no 3d screensavers work at all
[01:55] <kyja> when it reboots its like you baught it preinstalled at a store
[01:55] <R0bin> when I first installed ubuntu it worked but 2 slow, now it doesn't work at all!!
[01:55] <unio> actually; it doesn't work. it installed and everything, but still won't run java applets >_<
[01:56] <ebel> Sweet mother of crazy install. The installer is seriously broken for powerpc.
[01:56] <R0bin> three, "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable " ?
[01:56] <thrghpt> some message flashed by after I hit reboot after upgrading to dapper... i'm having some problem retrieving repository indexes or somesuch
[01:56] <eletido> how would I go about getting an application into the Ubuntu repos?
[01:56] <don_jr> ebel get the alternate CD and use the text installer, that's what I had to do to get it to run.
[01:56] <eletido> what is the process there?
[01:56] <three> r0bin: you are at the end of my knowledge
[01:56] <ppd> hello. it's me again. I've enabled xdmcp in that gdm config program but still nmap tells me that port 177 is closed. how can that be?
[01:56] <ebel> I mean totally fecked. you have to manually create the boot partition thing.
[01:56] <c|oneman> does ubuntu live not have 'make' ?
[01:56] <R0bin> how do I restart X
[01:56] <R0bin> 11 xD
[01:57] <three> r0bin: crtl alt backspace
[01:57] <R0bin> ok
[01:57] <quintin> my USB does not seem to be working properly.  Any ideas what I can do ??
[01:57] <gnomefreak> c|oneman: you need to install build-essential
[01:57] <Zebedee> thanks i will try but am a bit lost in a non ms system :-)
[01:57] <c|oneman> is that available on the live one>
[01:57] <c|oneman> ?
[01:57] <edgarin> Hi to all
[01:57] <edgarin> I have a problem with XGL
[01:57] <modplug_> how can i fix this? cgwd-themes: Depends: cgwd (>= 0.54) but 0.53 is to be installed
[01:58] <theine> quintin: could be more specific?
[01:58] <thrghpt> :)
[01:58] <theine> quintin: ...you...
[01:58] <gnomefreak> c|oneman: its in the main repo not on the cd
[01:58] <rsk> try removing cgwd and cgwd-thems first
[01:58] <pgavin> ok, everyone try this:      dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=2
[01:58] <pgavin> (don't worry, nothing bad will happen)
[01:59] <ootput> how do tell ubuntu to _not_ make .Trash folders on a partition after a deletion?
[01:59] <modplug_> rsk: yeah i tried that, didn't work
[01:59] <robin_> 3d screensavers works now
[01:59] <rsk> =(
[01:59] <km0ti0n> I'm following a howto of the wiki, I'm building a kernel for use with XEN from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenVirtualMachine/XenOnUbuntuDapper
[02:00] <km0ti0n> After I make  the kernal it sy to run "sudo debchange"
[02:00] <door> quintin:  what is the problem?
[02:00] <patientfox> hey has anyone troubleshot the issue of no issue in the nonfree flash plugin for firefox from multiverse?
[02:00] <km0ti0n> but it errors as the no debian/changelog file
[02:00] <patientfox> no sound issue, even
[02:00] <acidian> bah, hate this grub thing
[02:00] <km0ti0n> what should one have in debian/changelog to make ti run?
[02:00] <acidian> second time I reinstall now
[02:00] <quintin> door: my usb wifi adapter not working properly
[02:00] <Ash-Fox> patientfox, odd, I have flash here.
[02:01] <door> quintin:  how so?
[02:01] <patientfox> yeah its weird... last time i installed, on this very computer
[02:01] <robin_> I REALLY WANT TO THANKS EVERYONE WHO HELPED ME HERE LOL 3D NOW WORKS
[02:01] <quintin> door: it says raw device not the right stuff
[02:01] <Ash-Fox> Let me check which repository I got it from.
[02:01] <patientfox> i went and installed the same package and had sound out of the box
[02:01] <patientfox> i think i did
[02:01] <door> quintin:  huh...that's foreign to me. was it a long error message?
[02:01] <patientfox> my sources.list may be different.. but it still has all the multiverse junk
[02:01] <quintin> door: uh, it just doesn't work.  usb devices don't have lights
[02:02] <Ash-Fox> patientfox, got it from multiverse/web
[02:02] <door> quintin:  that's...odd. is it all usb devices or just that one?
[02:03] <patientfox> is there a way to explicitely fetch from that repository?
[02:03] <patientfox> im pretty new to apt-get..
[02:03] <quintin> door: all
[02:03] <acidian> say what you will about windows, but atleast they use a boot system that works XD
[02:03] <_Spire_> patientfox: fetching a package from a specific repository?
[02:03] <gustavold> how can I print the even pages of a pdf file?
[02:03] <Ash-Fox> patientfox, I just use adept, but you can use sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:04] <modplug_> where can i find a cgwd version >=0.54?
[02:04] <door> quintin:  what flavor of ubuntu are you running?
[02:04] <quintin> door: 6.06 lts
[02:04] <door> quintin:  so not kubuntu or xubuntu?
[02:05] <quintin> door: no
[02:05] <gnomefreak> modplug_: 1st off the latest for dapper is .61 sencond can you please ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[02:05] <door> quintin:  you might try restarting the gnome-volume-manager application
[02:05] <gnomefreak> second*
[02:05] <quintin> door: how?
[02:05] <modplug_> sure, np
[02:05] <door> press <alt>F2
[02:05] <theine> quintin: also check the output of "dmesg" in a terminal window
[02:06] <door> quintin:  <alt>F2 *should* bring up a dialog to let you enter a command to run a program
[02:06] <quintin> door: ok.  then what
[02:06] <door> quintin:  type gnome-volume-manager and hit enter, then try again. also, after that, do try theine's suggestion
[02:06] <Bo1> Hi, does anyone know if theres a file equivalent to local.start that I can put commands that'll run on startup?
[02:07] <patientfox> hmmm no dice
[02:07] <door> Bo1:  for what window manager/desktop environment?
[02:07] <patientfox> thats the plugin i had installed originally
[02:07] <Bo1> gdm
[02:07] <quintin> theine: what am I checking for?
[02:07] <patientfox> i wondering if there's some supporting lib im missing...
[02:07] <door> Bo1:  sorry...no idea
[02:07] <patientfox> i installed the mp3 stuff
[02:07] <theine> quintin: any USB related error messages
[02:08] <Bo1> =\
[02:08] <gustavold> there isn't any app wich support printing even files ?
[02:08] <door> quintin:  also, what kind of wireless usb device is it?
[02:08] <quintin> door: it's not supported by default, but that's not the issue.  the issue is it won't show up with lsusb or in device manager
[02:09] <theine> Bo1: do you want to execute the commands when you boot your system or when you log in?
[02:09] <door> quintin:  insert it, then in a terminal do dmesg|tail
[02:09] <Bo1> when i log in
[02:10] <jn> do i need to open a port for weather report, it is not updating..
[02:10] <Newby876> does somebody know how to get wpa_supplicant to start automatically when booting?
[02:10] <quintin> usb disconnect address 3
[02:10] <quintin> over-current change on port 1
[02:10] <theine> quintin: aha
[02:10] <theine> quintin: try the following
[02:10] <quintin> new full speed usb device using uhci_hcd and address 5
[02:10] <_Spire_> Newby876: add it to /etc/modules
[02:10] <quintin> but still no lights...
[02:11] <theine> quintin: remove the device; execute "sudo rmmod ehci-hcd" in a terminal; and plug the device back in
[02:11] <relachs> Newby876 where did you get wpa_supplicant from? i have only wpasupplicant
[02:11] <ootput> is it possible for gnome music player to track changes in more than one folder?
[02:11] <_Spire_> Newby876: just start a terminal and type "gksudo gedit /etc/modules" and hit enter and type "wpa_supplicant". then save and reboot
[02:11] <quintin> I can't do a iwlist scan either
[02:12] <quintin> if anyon ehave recommendation for something that works for wirelss without being PITA I'd appreciate it
[02:12] <deltab> gustavold: it might be unsupported in CUPS
[02:12] <deltab> gustavold: which would be the obvious place to put it
[02:12] <door> quintin:  did you try the sudo rmmode and all?
[02:12] <door> *rmmod
[02:12] <theine> quintin: what's the exact iwlist command your executing?
[02:12] <quintin> iwlist scan
[02:13] <Newby876> Spire: ok. I have only added ndiswrapper to that file. So I should add wpasupplicant as well?
[02:13] <quintin> this is really getting to me
[02:13] <theine> quintin: that's not the right syntax
[02:13] <quintin> I thought linux maybe ready for desktop
[02:13] <_Spire_> Newby876: yup
[02:13] <KrakensDen> quintin, that's a touchy subject
[02:13] <kaot> Hi folks.  Just got compiz running.  Where's the best place to go for resources on themes, configuring, neat tricks, and all that?
[02:13] <theine> quintin: try "iwconfig" and look whether it recognizes any wireless interfaces
[02:13] <Newby876> Spire: can i also put the command options for wpasupplicant there?
[02:13] <door> quintin:  it's not linux that's the problem...it's that a lot of hardware companies don't release the specifications for their devices
[02:13] <quintin> KrakensDen: shrug.  easy answer is, it's not.
[02:14] <kaot> oh I see more folks are having fun with wifi.  mwaha
[02:14] <quintin> door: until a whole lot of stuff "just works" it's not ready, whoevers fault it is
[02:14] <quintin> for advanced users it's cool
[02:14] <_Spire_> Newby876: ...sorry. I wasn't thinking right. You're using wpasupplicant, right?
[02:14] <quintin> but not for a windoze user
[02:14] <deltab> quintin: sometimes it seems that Windows isn't ready either :-)
[02:14] <theine> quintin: i.e. any interface that doesn't report "no wireless extensions."
[02:14] <Newby876> spire: yes
[02:14] <quintin> you know, like grandpa and grandma
[02:14] <_Spire_> Newby876: Sorry - I gave you the wrong directions :P
[02:14] <jn> does anyone use weather report, the gnome panel
[02:14] <Newby876> spire: no problem
[02:14] <quintin> theine: no, no wireless devices
[02:14] <DarthShrine> Do the Ubuntu kernels have ipv6 compiled in?
[02:14] <kaot> quintin: don't forgot, grandma and grandpa had to be initially set up and tutored by someone else, too.
[02:14] <kaot> (under windows even)
[02:14] <Newby876> spire: thanks for trying to help
[02:14] <deltab> quintin: my boss can't access shares I make available on my machine, yet I can access his, and we're both using XP
[02:15] <KrakensDen> DarthShrine, yes
[02:15] <theine> quintin: then you're wireless card probably isn't recognized
[02:15] <_Spire_> Newby876: edit /etc/init.d/rc.local
[02:15] <DarthShrine> KrakensDen, Thanks
[02:15] <ProN00b> does anyone garantee that ubuntus repositorys are virus free ?
[02:15] <quintin> it was recognized earlier today
[02:15] <door> ProN00b:  linux is generally very virus-free
[02:15] <KrakensDen> ProN00b, Canonical is in charge of that
[02:15] <quintin> deltab: you are probalby not using simple file sharing
[02:15] <KrakensDen> ProN00b, all of the packages are signed as well
[02:15] <theine> quintin: could you perhaps paste the output of iwconfig in #paste ?
[02:15] <marshall_> ProN00b:  i dont know if anybody can guarantee that
[02:15] <_Spire_> Newby876: (gksudo gedit /etc/init.d/rc.local). then get a blank line, then type the wpasupplicant, options and all
[02:15] <ProN00b> KrakensDen, do they like garantee me ?
[02:15] <quintin> door: no, doing that now
[02:15] <NemesisUK> deltab, you got simple file sharing enabled because if so disable it
[02:16] <_Spire_> Newby876: save and reboot.
[02:16] <ProN00b> door, good joke
[02:16] <quintin> theine: there is no output.  just no wireless extentios
[02:16] <fangorious> i seem to have lost the cube/rotate compiz plugins
[02:16] <quintin> NemesisUK: actually it should be enabled
[02:16] <marshall_> ProN00b:  but the chance of you catching any kind of virus on a linux system is very slim, and i doubt it would be from any official distrobution repo
[02:16] <ndee> hey there, anyone knows a good php ide for ubuntu? would be nice with FTP support, etc.
[02:16] <theine> quintin: is this a PCMCIA wireless card?
[02:16] <ootput> how do i get gnmoe to repopulate it's menu after installation of a package?
[02:16] <quintin> door: what is rmmod to remove/  uhcpi something osmething
[02:16] <quintin> theine: no, usb
[02:16] <Mnovick> i dont normally even bother anyone in IRC chat. but does anyone know a a free IRC server under the GNU licence?
[02:16] <NemesisUK> quintin, nope it's a pain in the a*se and file sharing is better without it
[02:16] <KrakensDen> ndee, try bluefish
[02:16] <door> ProN00b:  *i* think it's comparatively virus-free...i haven't had any problems with that since i switched form windows
[02:17] <quintin> NemesisUK: ehm, it's easier with it.
[02:17] <theine> quintin: oh, well that shouldn't surprise me...
[02:17] <marshall_> ootput:  alacarte menu editor
[02:17] <Newby876> spire: thanks, i will try that!
[02:17] <NemesisUK> it's more controllable then without it
[02:17] <door> quintin:  theine suggested it earlier...rmmod will remove the current driver module and perhaps let you try reloading it or installin g anew one
[02:17] <marshall_> ootput:  the program may be hidden, or the package you used to install the app may not have made a menu entry
[02:17] <ProN00b> door, want me to send you one ? ^^
[02:17] <Badway> Can anyone help me setup an ATI Mobility 7500 in X?
[02:17] <theine> quintin: have you tried rebooting? I had similar issues with USB recently on Debian unstable and that always fixed it
[02:17] <door> ProN00b:  i'll take a pass on that, thanks
[02:17] <KrakensDen> ProN00b, the packages are signed, you can fiddle with what you accept in synaptic
[02:17] <quintin> theine: yes.  not working now..
[02:17] <quintin> door: what do I rmmod ?
[02:18] <ProN00b> marshall_, i was just wondering if Canonical takes responsibility for something like that
[02:18] <marshall_> ootput:  generally though the menu will repopulate itself immediately, or you can press ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X and GNOME
[02:18] <KrakensDen> ProN00b,  if you buy support, why yes they do
[02:18] <theine> quintin: so it's not working since the last reboot?
[02:18] <marshall_> ProN00b:  yeah what KrakensDen
[02:18] <marshall_> said
[02:18] <quintin> theine: it's not working period.  it was closer to working before though
[02:18] <KrakensDen> ProN00b, which is as much as anyone does
[02:18] <door> quintin:  i honestly don't remember. do you have any special indication of when somebody says your name?
[02:18] <door> in your program
[02:18] <ProN00b> hokay, KrakensDen
[02:19] <quintin> door: when it is first ilne
[02:19] <marshall_> door:  what irc app are you using?
[02:19] <ootput> marshall_, ah no, turns out i was looking in the wrong spot.. it was there after all :D
[02:19] <theine> quintin: not sure if i like your tone, i'm just trying to help
[02:19] <door> right...well, look for those. it's in one of them, not by me
[02:19] <door> marshall_:  irssi, why?
[02:19] <marshall_> ootput:  lol ok
[02:19] <quintin> theine: er, excuse me?  "tone"?  what "tone"
[02:20] <marshall_> door:  some irc apps have name highlighting and some dont. irssi is a terminal app right?
[02:20] <door> yup
[02:20] <door> marshall_:  yup
[02:20] <SomeUbuntuDude> hi can someone help me with an nvidia issue? i seem to have a "kernel module" version 7664 (wtf?) and a glx 8762... is there a way to fix that so I can go back to X?
[02:20] <theine> quintin: why don't you just say whether it stopped working since the last reboot or not, instead of "it's not working period"?
[02:20] <marshall_> door:  ok, im using xchat and it has name highlighting. so when somebody says marshall_ in any chatroom it will alert me by flickering
[02:20] <bbrazil> marshall_: fyi irssi has hilighting by default
[02:21] <quintin> theine: by not working period, I mean the wireless doesn't work at all.  it is stuck in ad-hoc mode before.  now, it won't show up in any form at all, whereas before, I could at least list APs that were in area and it did more
[02:21] <marshall_> bbrazil:  so if it isnt working for door they must ahve turned it off
[02:21] <vdepizzol> How can I take a screenshot of the ubuntu main menu?
[02:21] <door> marshall_:  shiny. i was just wondering that about somebody else's program so that i could direct hir to where to search for a response
[02:21] <theine> quintin: what's before?? an hour ago, yesterday, last week?
[02:21] <SomeUbuntuDude> nobody? come on, I even tried apt-get remove nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-module and it's still not working...
[02:21] <marshall_> vdepizzol:  press print scrn to take a screen shot of everything on your screen at the moment
[02:21] <deltab> vdepizzol: open it and press the Print Screen key
[02:21] <door> marshall_:  irssi flashes the person's name, and i've never used another irc client, so I just don't know these things :-)
[02:22] <marshall_> door:  lol ok
[02:22] <quintin> theine: yesterday / earlier today
[02:22] <quintin> I am trying rmmod uhci_hcd and it will not reutrn anything
[02:22] <quintin> taking forever to execute
[02:22] <SomeUbuntuDude> or at least someone knows how to remove that dang nvidia kernel module so I can do dpkg-reconfigure and it reinstalls itself correctly?
[02:22] <deltab> marshall_: hmm, the key doesn't seem to work while the menu's open
[02:22] <theine> quintin: ok, so first I'd install network-manager-gnome, which will give you an nice gui interface for logging on to wireless networks, and then reboot
[02:23] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  can you open aptitude (sudo aptitude)
[02:23] <vdepizzol> marshall_: when I try to press save, the menu disappear
[02:23] <quintin> theine: there is already something installed for that... and another one from KDE, but I'll install that as well
[02:23] <quintin> theine: it's not installed by default?
[02:23] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[02:23] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: opened
[02:23] <Mnovick> why dont you just use apt
[02:23] <theine> quintin: no, it's not
[02:23] <vdepizzol> deltab: it doesn't work
[02:23] <deltab> vdepizzol: yeah
[02:23] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  if you can, then press "/" to search for the word "nvidia"
[02:23] <Mnovick> sudo apt-get install nvidia_glx
[02:23] <marshall_> vdepizzol:  i think as soon as you press the print scrn button it takes the shot, so it doesnt matter if the menu closes after
[02:23] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: nvidia-kernel-source pops up
[02:24] <deltab> vdepizzol: choose Accessories / Take screenshot, then immediately press alt-f1
[02:24] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  press "n" to go to the next thing with "nvidia" in it
[02:24] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  wait
[02:24] <marshall_> deltab:  what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:24] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  *don't* go on
[02:24] <KrakensDen> Mnovick, you mean nvidia-glx
[02:24] <Mnovick> yea
[02:24] <Mnovick> keyboard sticks
[02:24] <deltab> marshall_: dapper
[02:24] <vdepizzol> thank's, deltab
[02:24] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: oh, well that was the first thing it did when I typed nvidia in the box thing
[02:24] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  now, pres "_" to mark it for complete uninstallation
[02:24] <Mnovick> just making a suggestion for atleast he can get back into x
[02:24] <Once> Anyone have Xorg 7.1 running in Dapper?
[02:25] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[02:25] <marshall_> deltab:  so you open the menu and press print scrn and what happens?
[02:25] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: with everything I find pressing "n" ?
[02:25] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  and then press "g" and then "g" again to to uninstall it
[02:25] <Badway> Can anyone help me setup an ATI Mobility 7500 in X? (Ubutnu Dapper on a IBM T42)
[02:25] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  depends. are you just trying to remove that one module?
[02:25] <deltab> marshall_: nothing happens: the menu stays open, and the save screenshot window doesn't open
[02:26] <marshall_> deltab:  odd.
[02:26] <deltab> looks like the menu captures and throws away the keypress
[02:26] <drbreen> ATI is utter crap
[02:26] <quintin> ATI pwns u
[02:26] <deltab> alt-tab also doesn't work when the menu's open
[02:27] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: I want to delete -everything- nvidia-related so I can install nvidia again from the repositories, as if it was a clean ubuntu install
[02:27] <anemiat1> anybody knows how to start gnumed?
[02:28] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  Aha. well, in that case, press _ to mark that one, "n" to go on to the next one, _ to mark it, n to go to the next one, etc. *Then* press g twice to do that. But I would make note of everything you remove so you can remember what to reinstall later!
[02:28] <acidian> Badway: try the http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide
[02:28] <acidian> worked for me, but not the same card/notebook
[02:29] <quintin> theine: please see http://pastebin.ca/149656
[02:29] <quintin> door: please see http://pastebin.ca/149656
[02:29] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: Ah, I see... alright, gimme a few :)
[02:29] !lilo:*! new connects temporarily suspended, please bear with us
[02:29] <Badway> Thanks acidian, i'll geck it out
[02:30] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  shiny. good luck!
[02:30] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[02:31] <theine> quintin: what's your wireless interface called?
[02:31] <door> quintin:  hmmm...interesting. however, unfortunately, i don't have much experience with wireless stuff outside of ndiswrapper
[02:31] <theine> quintin: eth1,eth2,...?
[02:31] <door> quintin:  so i will be unable to help you. sorry
[02:31] <quintin> theine: wlan0
[02:31] !lilo:*! finished up, access restored
[02:31] <quintin> door: ndiswrapper is what I'm using !
[02:32] <door> ooh
[02:32] <theine> quintin: ok, try "sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed"
[02:32] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: alright, it removed linux-386 and some restricted modules. If I choose to reinstall those, it gets nvidia-kernel-common too. Will it work if I accept it?
[02:32] <kyja> eth1 is my wifi with bcm4306
[02:32] <door> quintin:  what i mean is...i just don't have experience with having to manually configure it. sorry
[02:32] <quintin> theine: tchyea, duh :)  that has not worked though
[02:32] <quintin> theine: gimmie a sec, mike's machine is booting
[02:32] <quintin> theine: installed that gnome thingie too
[02:32] <door> SomeUbuntuDude: yikes! you *need* to reinstall linux-386
[02:32] <Lk2> hello!
[02:33] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  I don't know whether it will definitely work
[02:33] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: figured xD, but it gets nvidia-kernel-common automatically oO
[02:33] <hedo> hedo
[02:33] <kyja> can anyone tell me if there is an app that gives you indication of when someone connects remotly via ftp and ssh ? perhaps like an activity icon in menu like timuktu
[02:33] <kyja> :/
[02:33] <hedo> hedo
[02:33] <quintin> door:  =)
[02:33] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  *but* it is definitely worth a try
[02:33] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: Okay, thanks a lot ^^ I'll try reinstalling then reboot :)
[02:34] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  Good luck!
[02:34] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: thanks :) kudos to you :P
[02:34] <surgy> hi
[02:34] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  well, kudos if it works, maybe ;-)
[02:34] <quintin> theine: I have a new network icon on my systray that has network stuff, but only shows wired connection
[02:34] <kyja> I must be invisible.
[02:34] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: Oh well, if it doesn't I'll come back :P I miss X, 'cause I'm an X-Men (?) alright, brb :P
[02:34] <quintin> theine: omafosdfijefld;jfoepj9p ds;
[02:34] <dakAD> 'lo. really quick nooby question: is /share/firefox/chrome/userChrome.css the userChrome that applies to my account?
[02:34] <theine> quintin: are you also using ndiswrapper on this machine?
[02:34] <quintin> theine: just rebooted and it's in managed !!!!
[02:35] <quintin> theine: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.  maybe..
[02:35] <door> kyja:  you aren't...however, sometimes people take a li'l while to respond. i, for example, just don't know the answer
[02:35] <quintin> theine: wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee now I have to get it on "mike" instead of "2wireblahblah"
[02:35] <kyja> door: thank you =] 
[02:35] <theine> quintin: that should be straightforward I hope
[02:35] <door> kyja:  well, np. i hope some guru here knows the answer :-)
[02:36] <Newby876> spire: thank you very much! Wpa_supplicant now works automatically at booting
[02:36] <kyja> indeed.
[02:36] <quintin> the	maybe..
[02:36] <quintin> why does ubuntu not have normal net devices in /dev like ohter stuff?
[02:36] <Musashi328> kyja most servers you can turn on looging at it will log all connections
[02:36] <Bloody_Angel> i need help about wireless net. i cant open pages, when i ping my router, it says network unreachible, but yesterday it worked, i tried to connect today and i couldnt
[02:37] <theine> quintin: good question
[02:37] <jn> weather report (gnome panel) doesnt want to update do i need to open a port for it?
[02:37] <quintin> theine: I think it say 2wire is open, and mike is encrypted.  it's other way around..
[02:37] <kyja> Musashi328: good point. perhaps if I have to I can create my own "last line monitor"
[02:38] <theine> quintin: hmm, what happens if you tell network-manager to connect to "mike"
[02:38] <quintin> theine: we'll see in a second...
[02:39] <quintin> this stuff is so screwy.  hopefully once all is set up mike will have a usable linux desktop thoug
[02:39] <Musashi328> kyja: you want to see it displayed on your desktop?
[02:39] <dakAD> does ~/ mean my home directory?
[02:39] <theine> quintin: my guess is that ndiswrapper is to blame
[02:39] <quintin> theine: it is "activating interface "wlan0"" now... it did that forever before....
[02:39] <jay> what is the apt command to upgrade to another distro release?
[02:39] <kyja> yeah something that would simply say "<nick> has connected cia ssh"
[02:40] <kyja> via
[02:40] <door> dakAD:  yup!
[02:40] <dakAD> door: thanks
[02:40] <kyja> I just need to know who connect/disconnect with what ftp/ssh
[02:40] <quintin> would something inthe router here for some reason not be giving dhcp lease ?  or do I need to do something special to get ip via dhcp?
[02:40] <aSt3raL> whats a shortcut key to change workspaces?
[02:40] <door> dakAD:  ~ is an abbreviation that will be automatically expanded in most programs to "/home/dakAD" (or whatever)
[02:40] <UKMatt> what are scripts?
[02:40] <Shadowpillar> is it too late to suggest drivers for edgy?
[02:40] <Shadowpillar> or packages
[02:41] <Musashi328> anyone know the name of the desktop applet app that you can add applets to monitor different things on teh desktop
[02:41] <door> aSt3ral:  in what WM?
[02:41] <Lunar_Lamp> ok - really silly question here - how, using xchat, do i see the user-list for users in a channel?! I can't find the option...
[02:41] <aSt3raL> gnome
[02:41] <Shadowpillar> I have one I'd like to see in edgy
[02:41] <theine> quintin: what's your usb wireless card called btw?
[02:41] <Bloody_Angel> can anybody help me? my wireless don't work. i entered my IP but i cant surf
[02:41] <dakAD> then ~/.mozilla/ should be filesystem --> home/dak/.mozilla? only i can't find it :-(
[02:41] <UKMatt> anyone know a good site explaining what a script is/how to write one
[02:41] <door> aSt3raL:  i *think* that it's control+shift+(direction key)
[02:41] <Musashi328> kyja-give me a minute let me check something
[02:41] <quintin> theine: http://pastebin.ca/149656 it is listed there.  WRUB-2011i I think
[02:41] <aSt3raL> nope didnt work
[02:41] <quintin> theine: it is still on 2wire
[02:42] <door> UKMatt:  google "advanced bash scripting guide"
[02:42] <kyja> Musashi328: thank you.
[02:42] <Musashi328> np
[02:42] <Shadowpillar> Bloody_Angel: what's your card?
[02:42] <apaton> I want to install Postgres-7.4,but apt-get want to install Postgres-8.1. How do I get apt-get to install the older version - thx
[02:42] <Bloody_Angel> d-link
[02:42] <aSt3raL> its control alt direction key heh
[02:42] <acidian> anyone know how to compile a driver?
[02:42] <acidian> if one has the source
[02:42] <illovae> bonsoir :)
[02:42] <aSt3raL> firgured it out myself :p
[02:42] <door> dakAD:  first, it's important to note that it's */home/whatever/.mozilla* (with a / in front)
[02:42] <NickGarvey> acidian: I expect the documentation for the driver will say
[02:42] <illovae> euuh hello :)
[02:42] <SomeUbuntuDude> Yay door! you rule, kudos :P it worked :D though it's working it's kinda uneasy, that the X restarts about 3 times, and then displays an error about "the startup interface looks like it's crashing, reverting back to a standard greeter" (translating from Spanish). dpkg-reconfigure gdm would work, or it's something external?
[02:42] <door> aSt3ral:  word
[02:42] <acidian> NickGarvey: it doesnt :/
[02:42] <Shadowpillar> Bloody_Angel: what model?
[02:43] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  it couldn't hurt to try!
[02:43] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: alright :D, hope it works ^^
[02:43] <theine> quintin: you might wanna look into other wireless cards... ndiswrapper is just a giant hack really
[02:43] <Bloody_Angel> Shadowpillar: d-link dwl-510
[02:43] <Musashi328> kyja-you running gnome or kde
[02:43] <kyja> gnome
[02:43] <Musashi328> ok
[02:43] <door> dakAD:  also, what are you using to look for it?
[02:44] <SomeUbuntuDude> brb
[02:44] <Shadowpillar> Bloody_Angel: http://www.xs4all.nl/~bsamwel/dwl-510-on-linux-2.6.html try this
[02:44] <dakAD> door: i submitted a bug for all in one sidebar, and the author asked me to edit my userchrome.css; i just wanted to make sure i was editing the correct one, as i'm new to linux. hmm, i just found .mozilla through the command line, but it's not there in the GUI filebrowser
[02:45] <Mau> hi! is there a terminal that seem like games console?? they apear from the top of the screen...
[02:45] <door> dakAD:  aha! here's the thing:  dot-files are hidden files
[02:45] <BlueEagle> dakad: press CTRL+H to show hidden files in nautilus
[02:45] <Warbo> Does anyone know how to make Realplayer work a little better? Totem refuses to play a video, GXine plays it, but can't navigate through it and when the connection broke half way through I have to start it from the beginning. Realplayer can skip through, but doesn't actually display anything :(
[02:45] <door> dakAD:  so in a file browser you need to set the option to show hidden files
[02:45] <dakAD> oh for the love of god. i hate being new to an os
[02:45] <Warbo> Mau: There is one like Quake
[02:45] <door> dakAD:  you'll get used to it :-)
[02:45] <Warbo> Mau: I forget it's name
[02:45] <Mau> Warbo, great, what is?
[02:45] <gnomefreak> door: ctrl+h will show them too :)
[02:45] <Mau> warbo, ... rsrs thanks anyway
[02:45] <BlueEagle> dakad: Atleast you're asking sensible questions. :)
[02:46] <gnomefreak> oops
[02:46] <gnomefreak> not door byt dakAD
[02:46] <gnomefreak> but
[02:46] <Warbo> !info tilda
[02:46] <ubotu> tilda: Linux terminal which behaves like terminals in shooter games. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.09.1-1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 33 kB, installed size 148 kB
[02:46] <Shadowpillar> Bloody_Angel: http://rtl8180-sa2400.sourceforge.net/ there is a linux driver here for it, but if you're not a friend of compiling stuff, the ndiswrapper stuff might be the thing for now.
[02:46] <door> gnomefreak:  well, now i know too 8-)
[02:46] <Shadowpillar> is it too late to suggest packages for edgy?
[02:46] <dakAD> ah, yes, there it is. thank you very much everyone :-)
[02:47] <gnomefreak> Shadowpillar: file a bug on the package you would like to see or ask in #ubuntu-motu
[02:47] <door> dakAD:  they're just hidden by default because most people don't want to look at config files all the time
[02:47] <BBlinkK> how do i set a module to load on boot?
[02:47] <quintin> it seems I cannot "SET" things for my wireless device .... any ideas ?
[02:47] <Warbo> BBlinkK: Put it in /etc/modules
[02:47] <Mau> warbo, i think that i found. its name is kuake
[02:47] <BBlinkK> i dont have a /etc/modules
[02:48] <Warbo> !info kuake

[02:48] <Warbo> ah, that's the one
[02:48] <BlueEagle> bblinkk: it should be a file that contains the names of modules to be loaded at boot time.
[02:48] <Warbo> Mau: I did suggest "tilda"
[02:48] <BlueEagle> bblinkk: gksudo gedit /etc/modules
[02:49] <Warbo> I see, I didn't look through all of the results of "apt-cache search quake" :)
[02:49] <Mau> warbo, i found that too ehe he thanks!
[02:50] <surgy> josh?
[02:50] <BBlinkK> doh! thanks blueeagle, i was looking for it as a dir
[02:50] <BlueEagle> bblinkk: :)
[02:50] <jn> i need help with weather report, it has yet to update
[02:51] <quintin> Ok, I am going to try to manually set my wirelss settings
[02:51] <quintin> what is the default broadcast for me going ot be?
[02:51] <quintin> is 192.168.0.x net
[02:51] <kyja> Musashi328: sac ?
[02:51] <BBlinkK> im having such a hard time... my laptop crashed, my server crashed... so i bought a macbook and installed ubuntu on the server, so I got two new OS's to learn, even though I know everything about windows
[02:51] <kyja> Musashi328: almost sounds like that I think. its a login accounting system.
[02:52] <Warbo> BBlinkK: You know everything about Windows? Can you please tell Xine developers how WMV works please, my video is playing badly :)
[02:53] <jn-> i have the no one wants to help me blues
[02:53] <BBlinkK> thats the problem, wmv doesnt work :)
[02:53] <FurryNemesis> jn?
[02:53] <Warbo> Exactly
[02:53] <BBlinkK> it doesnt even work in windows
[02:53] <quintin> BBlinkK: yea just stick with windows and send me that crappy macbook
[02:53] <BBlinkK> hah, this is the best laptop ive ever owned
[02:54] <jn-> FurryNemesis: ive been asking the same question for the last 45min and have yet to get acknowledged untill just now.. weather report (gnome panel) does not update, why not?
[02:54] <Warbo> It's either WMV or realplayer, but both stream so I can't skip bits (realplayer can skip through realplayer files, but it doesn't actually display the video so there is no point)
[02:54] <jirka> hi, could please someone help me with sound?
[02:54] <raghu206> My system is compaq presario sr1130.while logging out the screen becomes blank and nothing appears on the screen.i can only hear the sounds of logging in and out.pls solve the problem
[02:55] <jn-> raghu206: dual boot?
[02:55] <anthony_> hello.  say I have a movie file playing in VLC
[02:55] <BlueEagle> !u
[02:55] <ubotu> Unless you're Dutch, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun.  If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you".  The same goes for "why", "because", "anyone", and so on..
[02:55] <raghu206> jn-, yes
[02:55] <user01> how are you supposed to use an ipod with ubuntu?  if you copy songs onto the ipod, they dont show on the ipod meny
[02:55] <jirka> pleeze
[02:55] <Warbo> !info gtkpod
[02:55] <ubotu> gtkpod: manage songs and playlists on an Apple iPod. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.99.2-1ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 480 kB, installed size 1988 kB
[02:55] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell user01 about ipod
[02:56] <jn-> raghu206: and i bet you installed the latest ati drivers for that nice radeon xpress 200m correct?
[02:56] <anthony_> ** hello.  say I have a movie file playing in VLC, how can I then get another movie to load into that window, and replace the file already playing, by default?
[02:56] <dakAD> ok, another question: i tried to d/l totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin 1.4.1, but it says it needs gstreamer 1.4.1, but i have 1.4.3. is this something im doing wrong, or something wrong with the package/universe/thingy?
[02:56] <raghu206> jn-, no i did not do that
[02:56] <R0bin> Hi again!
[02:56] <SomeUbuntuDude> door: nope, hasn't worked. GDM's logfile shows this twice: AUDIT: Fri Aug 25 20:53:18 2006: 4650 X: client 3 rejected from local host <- might be useful?
[02:57] <kyja> Musashi328: well sac is close but I dont think it deals with the remote connections.
[02:57] <Warbo> user01: If you bothered to notice, then you would find that Mac and Windows do exactly the same thing. The iPod is a storage device, but special software is needed to update it's playlists. Did you ever open "E:" (or whatever the hell Windows decided to call it) in Explorer and drag files across?
[02:57] <jirka> please, someone with sound??????????????
[02:57] <R0bin> Can someone post a guide to get DVD TO WORK
[02:57] <Warbo> R0bin: Do you live in the US?
[02:57] <R0bin> no
[02:57] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  have you changed the GDM artwork?

[02:59] <lmosher> Can anyone suggest a program to mount and/or convert .img (with .ccd and .sub) CD images?
[02:59] <dougalater> can someonehelp me..
[03:00] <Warbo> I have no idea what the hell format those CD images are in. ".img" is NOT a description
[03:00] <SomeUbuntuDude> Isn't that a CloneCD format?
[03:00] <door> SomeUbuntuDude:  well, you would've gotten there. but thanks for the credit :-) . hmmmm. So GDM is just not working?
[03:00] <lmosher> Warbo, I'm sorry you haven't heard of it. It's a comon format.

[03:12] <raghu206> I have managed to screw my installation. When I boot my computer everything seems to work fine. I can login, use all the programs etc.. But when I logout,the login screen does not come back, although it seems that gdm is running.In fact, if I just press the enter key, it produces the warning sound, which is produced when authentication failure (wrong user name/password is given).Even, if I type my user name, press enter and type my password, press enter,
[03:12] <raghu206> it looks like that a new session starts, the same music, when a new session starts, can be heard. However, the screens remains the same, no change whatsoever. I have also tried to kill the Xserver, by CTRL-ALT-Backspace.It seems that the xserver is killed but I am again back to the same problem.Only way I have is to go to a console login, CTRL-ALT-F1, and then do areboot, by sudo reboot, which is very annoying.
[03:12] <quintin> theCore: it works.  wtf
[03:12] <quintin> theCore: worn gperson
[03:12] <wookienz> warbo, yeah i got all the ones that the website suggested.
[03:12] <longwave> acidian: /boot/vmlinuz-*

[03:12] <acidian> thanks :)
[03:13] <rob138> is there an amarok 1.4.2 packaged for dapper anywhere?

[03:14] <robin> hey I can't watch dvd's what do I do!!
[03:14] <Warbo> Can someone please test xteddy, and see if it comes up all white?
[03:14] <BlueEagle> raghu206: Have you attempted to restart the X-server? Hit CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to do that. Sounds like a problem with your video card. Which video card have you got and which driver are you using?
[03:14] <blocky> ie. somewhere in alsa
[03:14] <anemiat1> whats the url to pastebin?

[03:17] <dan_> are there pre compiled drivers for ubunto/nivida geforce 440 drivers and if so where do I get them?
[03:17] <Warbo> grigora: It says you don't have a module called wxPython. Look through Synaptic or something for that package
[03:17] <BlueEagle> robin: It is usually found in the repos hosted by cypherfunk.org however that repo is down and seems to continue to be down for a while.
[03:17] <grigora> Warbo: where do you see that?
[03:17] <Warbo> BlueEagle: I read on Newsforge that it has been shut down
[03:17] <grigora> Warbo: or do you just know the warning?
[03:17] <Warbo> grigora: Bottom line
[03:18] <BlueEagle> warbo: I went directly to cipherfunk.org

[03:19] <eigenlambda> BlueEagle: nice
[03:19] <robin> Is there winrar for linux?
[03:19] <grigora> Warbo: this is what I posted: Warning: [8/25/2006 6:15:32 PM]  (Could not verify encoder profile) - Pipeline profile 'Lame MP3' will be unavailable: GStreamer pipeline 'lame' could not be run

[03:19] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[03:19] <grigora> Warbo: where do you see wxPython?

[03:20] <Warbo> grigora: Oh, I have the wrong paste
[03:21] <quintin> Warbo: uh, right.  debating semantics is dumb. :)  of course no winrar for linux, since the 'win' is for windoze

[03:28] <grigora> does anyone know what could cause this warning: Warning: [8/25/2006 6:15:32 PM]  (Could not verify encoder profile) - Pipeline profile 'Lame MP3' will be unavailable: GStreamer pipeline 'lame' could not be run? thanks!
[03:28] <sparkleytone> anyone know where to start with my video issues?
[03:28] <sparkleytone> i really want to get mythtv up and running
[03:28] <empc> do you have a firewall? wubrgamer ?
[03:28] <Warbo> sparkleytone: I just couldn't be bothered to look into it. Tell me if you get it fixed :)
[03:28] <sparkleytone> tonight
[03:28] <UbuntuBantu> TLE:  no problems accessing the ntfs or ext3 partitions
[03:28] <wubrgamer> otherwise ssh automatically tries to log me in as account A, which is my laptop account

[03:29] <UbuntuBantu> TLE: nope it is random, usually after a few gb have been copied
[03:29] <House_> i try to get into phpmyadmin, but firefox wont open the "PHTML file"
[03:30] <Warbo> Hmm, I have the latest version of xteddy
[03:30] <nu> =D
[03:30] <wubrgamer> no
[03:30] <lostinc> Has that xserver bug been fixed?
[03:30] <dibblego> lostinc, yes, a few days ago
[03:30] <Warbo> lostinc: Yes I think. I am not sure since my Xorg is screwed anyway
[03:30] <TLE> UbuntuBantu: That sound freeking wierd, I have myself copied weel over 15 GB with mc without a hickup
[03:30] <deltab> House_: the server should be running the PHP and sending HTML
[03:30] <lostinc> LOL okay :)
[03:30] <lostinc> Ill give it a download
[03:31] <House_> how do i check if php is running?
[03:31] <House_> i assume its not
[03:31] <deltab> House_: the server config needs to be changed to do that
[03:31] <wookienz> is there any other graphic dirvers to make my screen appear a bit more clearer?
[03:31] <Warbo> House_: ps -ax ?
[03:31] <wubrgamer> i just want to know how to SSH into another account on another linux account, paul is on BOTH machines, i'm trying to login under account forestpakr
[03:31] <sparkleytone> it seems that /dev/video0 refuses to create itself
[03:31] <sparkleytone> anyone?
[03:31] <deltab> House_: create a .php file and access that
[03:31] <TLE> UbuntuBantu: It sound like some sort of a memory problem, but I have never heard of such a thing with the copy function

[03:32] <wubrgamer> i did

[03:32] <wubrgamer> i did
[03:32] <deltab> sparkleytone: are the relevant drivers loaded?

[03:32] <eternalswd> wubrgame, did you make sure that the user was set up correctly for ssh access?
[03:32] <sparkleytone> i think i found the issue
[03:32] <wubrgamer> i don't know
[03:32] <empc> it asked for a password wubrgamer ?
[03:32] <wubrgamer> i just made the account
[03:32] <wubrgamer> yes it did
[03:32] <sparkleytone> i need to add "alias video0 bttv" to modules.d for bttv
[03:32] <wubrgamer> it askes for a password
[03:32] <sparkleytone> deltab, yeah they are loaded

[03:33] <DigitalNinja> what's the sotry with /etc/cron.daily/sysklogd?
[03:33] <sparkleytone> hmmm...maybe not
[03:33] <wubrgamer> yes

[03:34] <crouchingmonkey> id like to change my screen res to 1280x1024 but i cant find it and i already edited the xorg.conf
[03:34] <dibblego> wubrgamer, check /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the host machine
[03:34] <FurryNemesis> is the GCC compiler in the repos broken or am I not doing something right?
[03:35] <wubrgamer> u can ssh into my NORMAL account
[03:35] <dougsko> wubrgamer: can you log into 192.168.1.150 using forestpark as the username and whatever you have as a passwd?
[03:35] <wubrgamer> no
[03:35] <House_> is php5 the latest version?
[03:35] <Warbo> Would running Edgy's deskbar-applet in Dapper cause any major issues?
[03:35] <dougsko> wubrgamer: log in locally i mean
[03:35] <wubrgamer> i can ssh in under my normal username
[03:35] <dibblego> wubrgamer, then almost certainly a sshd_config issue
[03:35] <wubrgamer> yes i can
[03:35] <dougsko> wubrgamer: yeah its gotta be something in your config
[03:35] <dougsko> although i dont know what it could be
[03:35] <dougsko> that sounds wierd
[03:36] <wubrgamer> hmm
[03:36] <wubrgamer> weird
[03:36] <UbuntuBantu> TLE: the copy operation starts off like a bull in a china shop and then seems to run out of steam after a few gb
[03:36] <dougsko> wubrgamer: maybe restart ssh?
[03:36] <empc> you right dougsko :x
[03:36] <wubrgamer> alright
[03:36] <wubrgamer> i'll check it out
[03:36] <wubrgamer> well

[03:40] <FurryNemesis> anyone know if the debian sarge precompiled package for clamav is compatible with dapper? Just checking,,,,,
[03:40] <eternalswd> wubrgame check /etc/ssh/sshd_config you may need to add to AllowUsers if PermitRootLogin is set to no

[03:42] <door> wookienz:  first, install pciutils
[03:42] <mark06> ?
[03:42] <empc> grigora, gtkpod
[03:42] <wookienz> door, for a laptop?
[03:42] <door> wookienz:  then in a terminal, do "lspci"
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> door, by 0.2 versions I think
[03:42] <eternalswd> mark06 it depends on the hardware
[03:42] <door> wookienz:  seems to work on mine
[03:42] <TLE> UbuntuBantu: Damn... That is wierd... Well trouble shooting that one is way beyond my abilities, the best I can offer you is a workaround
[03:42] <burningfire> How do I remove everything related to xorg and re-install it all ?
[03:42] <mark06> I have sound on my motherboard
[03:42] <door> FurryNemesis: ah. well, i don't know. sorry
[03:42] <grigora> aneglus: which is?
[03:42] <grigora> empc: how about banshee?
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> meh, I'll just use something else
[03:43] <wookienz> door, thanks. found it
[03:43] <door> burningfire: does the GDM give you an error message when you try to start it?
[03:43] <door> wookienz: shiny!
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> any recommendations?
[03:43] <mark06> eternalswd, I have sound on my motherboard

[03:47] <Luakagon> Yeah :'(  I need to edit the instrumental sections out of a file so I can put more songs on a CD of songs I own that I want to learn how to sing and play.
[03:47] <door> luakagon:  are you listening to a file in some other program right now?
[03:47] <eternalswd> mark06, give me a little time to do a search
[03:47] <Luakagon> door, I have closed any program I suspected of possibly grabbing the audio.
[03:48] <Nitrobass24> im new to linux and im planning on installing ubuntu server on my currently xp sys and want to know if theres anything important i need to know going into this? Will it recognize my raid0 that i setup in windows?
[03:48] <bill__> just wondering,are most of u on a dual boot or is anyone running 100% linux like me?
[03:48] <door> luakagon:  weird.
[03:48] <empc> bill__, 100%
[03:48] <mark06> ok
[03:48] <door> luakagon:  maybe restart x?
[03:48] <aneglus> bill__: 100% on my laptop
[03:48] <Luakagon> I just found that the Mozilla download manager was open so I closed the manager, closed Audacity and restarted Audacity...
[03:48] <door> bill__: 105% ubuntu
[03:49] <bill__> lol i have no choice cuz i left XP at my parents' in Missouri and im in Illinois
[03:49] <HeathenDan> dual-boot here
[03:49] <door> Luakagon: did it work?
[03:49] <dibblego> is it possible to burn a CD from the command line?
[03:49] <Luakagon> No;  I am going to restart x now.
[03:49] <Luakagon> brb :)
[03:49] <TLE> UbuntuBantu: Well if this is a problem because it can't be handled with one copy operation, maybe a script that copies the files individually would do the trick. But it would be quick and dirty, and not until I've had some sleep.. *G*

[03:54] <HeathenDan> how do i mount cd isos?
[03:54] <door> unwakata: it's possible that there is a fix, but nobody on right now knows the answer, or somebody missed your question, or somebody is looking for an answer right now

[03:55] <BHSPitMonkey> HeathenDan, ^
[03:55] <HeathenDan> thx4help, lemme try that
[03:55] <dougsko> this is a pretty general question, not applying to any particular app: you know how in an app's config file, say apache's, it asks where you want to save the log file? can you specify a pipe instead of a location?
[03:55] <Ash-Fox> I'm running ubuntu on a mac right, now for some reason, it isn't detect key presses on f13, f14, f15 on the keyboard. Even though I set the keyboard type to 'Macintosh'. Anybody know how to get around this?
[03:55] <eternalswd> mark06, take a look at this thread http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/154382-post3.html
[03:55] <door> Ash-Fox:  first, try installing xev
[03:55] <dougsko> like |parse.pl, instead of /var/logs?
[03:56] <sparkleytone> really really need /dev/video0 to exist
[03:56] <BHSPitMonkey> I've got a pretty important bug here, when my screen saver is locked, and I give it my password, it says it's incorrect (when it's completely correct.)
[03:56] <door> Ash-Fox: that's a program that'll let you see the x-events that happen when you hit keys
[03:56] <sparkleytone> anyone know how to get this working?
[03:56] <a|i3N> hey my ark crashed... "ERROR: Communication problem with ark, it probably crashed." .... help!! i needa extract a file
[03:56] <door> a|i3N: what kind of file?
[03:56] <a|i3N> .zip
[03:57] <BHSPitMonkey> a|i3N, you could always use the "unzip" command at a terminal
[03:57] <door> a|i3N: do you have access to a terminal
[03:57] <door> ?
[03:57] <BHSPitMonkey> or use file-roller instead
[03:57] <a|i3N> i was trying to run it, in terminal, as root
[03:57] <a|i3N> yes
[03:57] <TLE> UbuntuBantu: Sleep time, I'll contact you through the forum
[03:57] <door> a|i3N: you don't need to be root to unzip something, generally
[03:57] <a|i3N> because the directory I was trying to extract to said I had to use root, so I did sudo ark (file)
[03:57] <door> a|i3N: aha. now, instead, try sudo unzip $file
[03:58] <a|i3N> lol. ok. Is there a quick way to gix ark though?
[03:58] <door> a|i3N: i'm not familiar with that program...
[03:58] <BHSPitMonkey> a|i3N, do you use kubuntu?
[03:58] <a|i3N> yes
[03:58] <BHSPitMonkey> a|i3N, then you should probably ask those questions in #kubuntu
[03:58] <a|i3N> zip unzipped it... how do I copy a file in the terminal?
[03:59] <BHSPitMonkey> this channel is more oriented toward the gnome-based ubuntu
[03:59] <a|i3N> I did but I guess they're all asleep :0
[03:59] <a|i3N> er :)
[03:59] <BHSPitMonkey> a|i3N, cp

[03:59] <door> a|i3N: shiny
[03:59] <a|i3N> cept when it breaks :)
[03:59] <a|i3N> or i break it

[04:01] <Luakagon> Hi.  I am the guy with the sound issues;  I've restarted but audacity still gives me error issues.
[04:01] <door> Ash-Fox: just let me know if you still want help...
[04:02] <door> Luakagon: you don't need to be root to use audacity, do you?
[04:02] <Luakagon> door, Excellent Idea :)  I'll use a termanal to do that.
[04:02] <door> or gksudo...
[04:02] <KrakensDen> door, I doubt it.
[04:03] <door> KrakensDen: yeah, it's a long shot
[04:03] <KrakensDen> door, has he installed alsa's oss-compatibility layer?
[04:03] <Luakagon> door, No error...
[04:03] <KrakensDen> door, 'cause audacity is OSS only
[04:03] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, what errors do you get?
[04:03] <door> Luakagon: have you installed alsa-oss?
[04:03] <Luakagon> Running as root, I have no errors.  I am listening to a song now :)
[04:04] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, if you silently get no sound, try doing a 'killall esd'
[04:04] <witless> what's the lightest-weight generally usable browser available?

[04:04] <sparkleytone> Warbo, i'm going to roll my own kernel and see if that helps
[04:04] <tjb891> does anyone know how to stop a command from executing, example when i use tracepatha and it gets to the end it starts lising no replay in a infinite loop?
[04:04] <door> witless: swiftfox light-ish
[04:04] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, if going to root makes it work, that means it's a permissions problem, which shouldn't happen, but it does sometimes
[04:04] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, what's the output of ls -l /dev/dsp?
[04:05] <empc> tjb891, ctrl-c
[04:05] <tjb891> ok thx
[04:05] <witless> swiftfox?  never heard of it  :-)
[04:05] <door> witless: it's basically a mod'ded firefox
[04:05] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, what's the site for posting such a monstrous paste? :)

[04:08] <KrakensDen> eigenlambda, an optimized build of firefox, IIRC
[04:08] <imago> door, is there any stie that has thease commands on them so i can learn without bugging people
[04:08] <eigenlambda> lol firefox processor-optimized
[04:08] <door> imago:  you're not bugging anybody! and a good place to start might be www.linux.org. they've got a beginner's tutorial section
[04:08] <Luakagon> audio:x:29:mycomputername
[04:08] <door> imago: also, you might check out the ubuntuforums
[04:08] <imago> thx i will look at it
[04:09] <door> imago: try searching for whatever you're trying to do
[04:09] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, is your username 'mycomputername'?
[04:09] <door> imago: good luck!
[04:09] <Luakagon> Yes...
[04:09] <Luakagon> I censored it :P
[04:09] <KrakensDen> ah :)
[04:10] <a|i3N> hey how do i check how much space is left on my hard drive from console?
[04:10] <KrakensDen> hmm
[04:10] <KrakensDen> well
[04:10] <KrakensDen> everything looks ok...
[04:10] <door> a|i3N: df
[04:10] <empc> a|i3N, use df -H
[04:10] <door> empc: ah, duh, good suggestion
[04:10] <empc> lol
[04:11] <a|i3N> wow with all the crap I've installed on here i've only used 2 gigs. linux is amazing. lol
[04:11] <rummik> aww...bb doesn't work right...
[04:11] <eric__> Hi.  Has anybody had any trouble getting VMWare Player to work in Ubuntu?
[04:11] <rummik> it locks up if you play sound...
[04:11] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, so you get no error messages, and no sound as a regular user?
[04:12] <raindog> Hello.  I'm using Firefox and then autohide extension that allows you to customize full-screen settings.  However, in Ubuntu when I have Firefox in fullscreen I can't run my cursor to the top or bottom edge to bring up either Ubuntu toolbar.  What I'm looking for is a setting similart to "always on top" for the toolbars like in *ack*  XP.  Any suggestions?
[04:12] <eric__> I keep getting can't find /dev/vmmonitor.  I've tried completely removing and reinstalling twice now.
[04:12] <mrmojo> Hello
[04:12] <eric__> Trying to run pre-built machines for Fedora Core and Open SUSE.
[04:12] <mrmojo> is there a way to do anetwork install of ubunt
[04:12] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, I get error messages and no sound as a regular user.
[04:12] <mrmojo> like burn a small CD and then dl the packages off the internet?
[04:13] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, try running 'killall esd' and then running audacity as a regular user
[04:13] <imago> door, how do i fix my Floppy drive i tried the forums sugesstions but they didn't completly work
[04:13] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, you'll have to kill the superuser audacity first as well
[04:13] <dada> http://www.djdada.dl.am RnB/HipHop Songs to Download & Musicclips! check it out ;)
[04:14] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, if that works, you may want to try  going to system->preferences->sound, and disabling 'software mixing'
[04:14] <empc> mrmojo, like debian netinst ?
[04:14] <mrmojo> yep
[04:14] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, mostly because ALSA handles it better than ESD does
[04:14] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, what about just killing esd automatically with a startup script?
[04:14] <empc> i don't think so...
[04:14] <mrmojo> ok
[04:14] <Luakagon> ty btw
[04:14] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, that would also work
[04:14] <KrakensDen> but in my experience
[04:14] <KrakensDen> you don't actually need ESD
[04:14] <KrakensDen> and applications that won't run without it
[04:14] <KrakensDen> will just launch it
[04:15] <door> imago: i'm sorry...i haven't the foggiest. i use a laptop with no floppy drive. sorry :-(
[04:15] <Luakagon> OK... I need to make a startup script anyways; can you tell me how to set that up?
[04:15] <KrakensDen> sure
[04:15] <KrakensDen> open up your favorite text editor
[04:15] <MetaMorfoziS> !java
[04:15] <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
[04:15] <KrakensDen> #!/bin/sh <- first line
[04:15] <KrakensDen> and then it's just shell commands
[04:15] <imago> dorr, well the error it gives me is like this topic http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=113947&highlight=floppy+mount+problem
[04:16] <KrakensDen> if you want to do looping, flow control, etc, the shell has constructs for that.
[04:16] <lmosher> Anyone here know how to convert cloneCD images?
[04:16] <kill4killin> can someone please help me, im having a problem doing gset-compiz now that i have compiz and xgl installed
[04:16] <ketsugi|away> has the broken xserver package been fixed yet?
[04:16] <KrakensDen> yes
[04:16] <ketsugi|away> ie is it safe for me to apt-get upgrade
[04:16] <ketsugi|away> okay thanks
[04:16] <KrakensDen> yes
[04:16] <Luakagon> ; separating?  or /newline?
[04:16] <KrakensDen> newline
[04:16] <KrakensDen> but ; works as well
[04:17] <wookienz> !ati
[04:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:17] <door> imago: do you know what filesystem you rfloppy drive is?
[04:17] <kill4killin> Does anyone with experience with compiz? Could you please help me if you do
[04:17] <gb453> !wpa
[04:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:17] <lufis> I added a third-party suppository to sources.list in order to install latest xgl/compiz packages. The repo had more than just xgl and compiz, however, and since newer versions of critical dependencies (stuff like cairo) were now being recognized by apt it told me i had updates. I foolishly installed them and now am having major text rendering issues... text disappears randomly and reappears just as randomly. Any ideas on how to doiw
[04:17] <Luakagon> OK!  What do I do to get this script run automatically? :)
[04:18] <door> Luakagon: that's "automagically" ;-)
[04:19] <Luakagon> door, surely my computer doesn't search through every tom, dick and textfile looking for #!/bin/sh when I start up and run commands willy-nilly!
[04:19] <dada> http://www.djdada.dl.am RnB/HipHop Songs to Download & Musicclips! check it out ;)
[04:19] <Luakagon> I have to do something :\
[04:19] <lufis> dada: they better be in ogg vorbis
[04:19] <imago> door, i got it working to a point but what i am asking is    that for every disk do i have to umount then mount  or is there one total fix so i don't have to do it agian
[04:19] <door> Luakagon: nope...do you want ti to run at boot?
[04:19] <Luakagon> door, Yes please.
[04:20] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, what does it do?
[04:20] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, launch audacity?
[04:20] <jjholt> any RAM manufactuer better than the others looking at Corsair right now
[04:20] <lmosher> kill4killin, what do you need to know?
[04:20] <door> imago: how did you get it working, if i may ask?
[04:20] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, if so, you might want to put it in your path instead
[04:20] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, my script kills esd and makes my wireless connection work.
[04:20] <aneglus> Luakagon: wonderful
[04:20] <Luakagon> I'll also make it start some useful programs up too :)
[04:20] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, you can disable ESD in system->preferences->sound
[04:20] <Luakagon> aneglus, thanks.
[04:20] <HeathenDan> corsair's too expensive. i'd go with apacer
[04:20] <Shadowpillar> are the dvd releases of ubuntu just bigger live cd's?
[04:20] <door> Luakagon: you can probably have that start up when you log in instead of at bootup
[04:20] <Shadowpillar> or do they offer packages + live cd?
[04:21] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, and you probably want to look at the gnome session manager
[04:21] <lufis> You know what you guys need? a little entertainment... *sits at piano* anyone like joni mitchell?
[04:21] <HeathenDan> the dvd has repositories
[04:21] <KrakensDen> system->preferences->sessions
[04:21] <tjamminpoato> what is the keyboard shortcut to open a terminal?
[04:21] <lufis> Ooooh I am a lonely painter. I live in a box of Gimp.
[04:21] <HeathenDan> you can set up a shortcut
[04:21] <imago> door, went into fstab change the fd0 thing from auto to vfat   then sudo mount /media/floppy0
[04:22] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, that way, you don't get error messages at boot 'cause X windows hasn't started yet :)
[04:22] <Luakagon> Woah...
[04:22] <tjamminpoato> HeathenDan, there is no default one?
[04:22] <Luakagon> I see no way to disable ESD in the Sound Preferences dialogue;
[04:22] <door> imago: hmm. ok, eject that floppy and then wait a few seconds, then put it back in. does it mount?
[04:22] <door> imago: (properly, by itself)?
[04:22] <aaronshaf> Where can I learn about scheduling "apt-get upgrade" 's on my machine?
[04:22] <aaronshaf> i.e. automating apt-get
[04:22] <HeathenDan> don't know. i set up a new one the moment i started using ubuntu
[04:22] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, see the button that says 'enable software mixing'?
[04:22] <Luakagon> I'm using Ubuntu 5.12.
[04:22] <lufis> Oh but I could configure a box of fstab and I would... still be on my feet!
[04:23] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, uncheck it!
[04:23] <KrakensDen> oh
[04:23] <KrakensDen> hmm
[04:23] <tjamminpoato> HeathenDan how would i got aobut doing that?
[04:23] <Luakagon> How about the button that says "enable sound server startup"?
[04:23] <band-aid> how can i get my screen resolution above 640x480
[04:24] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, that sounds like it :)
[04:24] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, is it currently checked or unchecked?
[04:24] <imago> ok what happens is the disk that i used the files basicly get copyied so if i wanted to use a different disk i would have to umount the mount the other disk
[04:24] <kill4killin> lmosher, when i type in gset-compiz, it says that the command was not found
[04:24] <door> imago: so you had to manually mount the other disk?
[04:24] <imago> ya
[04:25] <lufis> I met a woman. She had a box like yours, she knew your distro. She knew your hardware and your kernel version! She said, go to Ubuntu. Download Ubuntu. But be prepared to reeeadd manpages
[04:25] <Warbo> Can someone help me to confirm a bug?
[04:25] <door> imago: hmmmmmmmmm...i'm not sure what's up with that. perhaps rebooting?
[04:25] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, it was checked.
[04:25] <band-aid> is their a terminal command to change my screen resolution because the drop down menu will not let me get above 640x480. It has the proper resolutions in my xorg.conf file. Installing the drivers off of ATI's site didn't help
[04:25] <Warbo> !fixres > band-aid
[04:25] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, yeah, unchecking it should fix things :)
[04:25] <wubrgamer> hey guys
[04:25] <door> band-aid: just a sec...
[04:25] <lufis> Hey wubrgamer
[04:25] <wubrgamer> how do i send a file back and forth through ssh ?
[04:26] <empc> wubrgamer, scp
[04:26] <wubrgamer> scp ?
[04:26] <wubrgamer> what is scp ?
[04:26] <KrakensDen> it's like cp
[04:26] <KrakensDen> but over ssh
[04:26] <empc> yep
[04:26] <lmosher> kill4killin, gset-compiz is depreciated. You need to use gconf-editor then click 'apps" and "compiz" and all the settings are there. They're all documented on the compiz website
[04:26] <wubrgamer> oh god this is gonna be comlex to use
[04:26] <kill4killin> ok
[04:26] <KrakensDen> you can also use nautilus, the default file manager
[04:26] <kill4killin> lmosher, thank you
[04:26] <lmosher> kill4killin, and the good folks in #xgl and #ubuntu-xgl are very, very helpful
[04:27] <quinlan> Hello, I have breezy, how do I upgrade?
[04:27] <imago> door, tryed that but i have a lil complacation           i dual boot with win 2000 and solaris and ubuntu 5.10, mandrake, and gentoo
[04:27] <KrakensDen> wubrgamer, places -> connect to server
[04:27] <KrakensDen> wubrgamer, select ssh
[04:27] <lufis> If no one requests anything I'll start playing Tori Amos!
[04:27] <KrakensDen> wubrgamer, type in the server name, your user name, your password
[04:27] <door> imago:  oh dear.
[04:27] <KrakensDen> and you can drag and drop stuff in
[04:27] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, is there a way to make the "sudo dhclient wlan0" command happen in startup?
[04:27] <door> imago: so is it difficult for you to reboot?
[04:27] <wubrgamer> kay
[04:27] <wubrgamer> no
[04:28] <imago> just a little
[04:28] <wubrgamer> i need to be able to do it on a windows running putty
[04:28] <haasteem> !upgrade
[04:28] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[04:28] <wubrgamer> lol
[04:28] <wubrgamer> sorry
[04:28] <KrakensDen> oh
[04:28] <wubrgamer> this is for school
[04:28] <KrakensDen> pscp is what you want
[04:28] <longwave> wubrgamer: google for "winscp"
[04:28] <KrakensDen> it has scp's syntax
[04:28] <wubrgamer> i am setting up my proxy
[04:28] <wubrgamer> winscp ?
[04:28] <KrakensDen> and putty distributes it
[04:28] <KrakensDen> ah, wait
[04:28] <door> band-aid: are you in a terminal?
[04:28] <KrakensDen> filezilla
[04:28] <wubrgamer> can i do that through a putty shell though dude ?
[04:28] <band-aid> yes
[04:28] <KrakensDen> try filezilla
[04:28] <longwave> winscp is a graphical scp client for windows, if thats what you want
[04:28] <KrakensDen> it's a gui that will do what you want
[04:28] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, sorry
[04:28] <dada> http://www.djdada.dl.am RnB/HipHop Songs to Download & Musicclips! check it out ;)
[04:28] <door> band-aid: ok, type "less /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[04:28] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, I thought you were loading your wireless card in your script?
[04:29] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, but yes there is
[04:29] <door> band-aid: and go to "section screen"
[04:29] <imago> door, plus the reason i need to get floppy working is so that i can transfer my win 3.1 files
[04:29] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, it would be good because there are some startup things that lag because of no net connection.
[04:29] <lufis> Ok, type: sudo rm -R *    fixes EVERYTHING!
[04:29] <wubrgamer> can filezilla do SCP ?
[04:29] <band-aid> ok did that
[04:29] <wubrgamer> lufis, what does THAT do ?
[04:29] <door> imago: aha. the thing is, i'm not sure whether a change to your /etc/fstab will automagically be detected without a reboot...you might ask that "out loud" here
[04:30] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, are you usiing ndiswrapper?
[04:30] <lufis> wubrgamer: try it :p
[04:30] <longwave> lufis do not tell people to do that
[04:30] <wubrgamer> lol
[04:30] <wubrgamer> seriously
[04:30] <Warbo> Can someone please help me confirm a bug?
[04:30] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, or something else?
[04:30] <wubrgamer> this IS a n00buntu channel
[04:30] <wubrgamer> don't joke with rm
[04:30] <sethk> imago, what's not working about the floppy
[04:30] <longwave> wubrgamer: filezilla is an ftp/sftp client and server, i dont think it does scp
[04:30] <wubrgamer> dammit
[04:30] <wubrgamer> will putty do scp ?
[04:30] <door> band-aid: ok, what does it say for "DefaultDepth"?
[04:30] <longwave> wubrgamer: what are you trying to do exactly?
[04:30] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, you put it in rc.local, and I would tell you how
[04:31] <wubrgamer> access files on my home machine running ubuntu, from school running putty
[04:31] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, except I'm familiar with slackware's boot scripts
[04:31] <imago> i have to umount the current disk then mount the disk i want to use
[04:31] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, which are very, very simple
[04:31] <door> Warbo: mv $file ~/.Trash
[04:31] <Warbo> door: I mean for new users
[04:31] <longwave> wubrgamer: use "pscp" from the command line (which is bundled with putty) or "winscp" which is a gui client based on putty
[04:31] <band-aid> under section "screen" it says that default depth is 24
[04:31] <Warbo> door: Also, it isn't always ~/.Trash
[04:31] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, debian seems to be using functions... and I'm not sure how they're supposed to go
[04:31] <door> Warbo: i was kidding...
[04:31] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, yes.
[04:31] <Luakagon> Thanks for the free help guys! :)
[04:31] <longwave> wubrgamer: if you are not allowed to install software though, putty on its own can't do it
[04:31] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, I use ndiswrapper.
[04:32] <wubrgamer> what would i have to install ?
[04:32] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, I see :\
[04:32] <door> imago: right...ok, try this
[04:32] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, how is that Slackware frontman doing?
[04:32] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, he got better :)
[04:32] <longwave> wubrgamer: pscp.exe is just a single executable, there is nothing to install as such
[04:32] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, finally found a good doctor
[04:32] <Luakagon> KrakensDen, I'll take it to #debian :)
[04:32] <wubrgamer> oh right
[04:32] <raindog> Hello.  I'm using Firefox and the autohide extension that allows you to customize full-screen settings.  However, in Ubuntu when I have Firefox in fullscreen I can't run my cursor to the top or bottom edge to bring up either Ubuntu toolbar.  What I'm looking for is a setting similar to "always on top" for the toolbars like in *ack*  XP.  Any suggestions?
[04:32] <door> imago: actually
[04:32] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, yeah, ask them about rc.local
[04:32] <longwave> wubrgamer: for winscp i think it uses installshield or something like most windows apps
[04:32] <door> imago: nevermind
[04:32] <KrakensDen> Luakagon, they should point you in the right direction pretty quick
[04:32] <door> imago: i just don't quite understand why you object to a reboot...
[04:33] <door> band-aid: ok, go down a little...
[04:33] <band-aid> ok
[04:33] <door> band-aid: and under 'subsection "Display"' (the one with depth of 24)
[04:33] <door> what does it have after "Modes?"
[04:33] <imago> because i use 2 different boot loaders plus a floppy disk DDO
[04:34] <door> band-aid: what does it have after "Modes?"
[04:34] <Warbo> raindog: Metacity doesn't really allow you to change panel settings, but you could install brightside which lets you flip to the next desktop
[04:34] <band-aid> it says depth is 1
[04:34] <door> band-aid: btw, it's *very* helpful if you say my nick before responding
[04:34] <band-aid> how do I do that
[04:34] <band-aid> door: oh like this?
[04:34] <KrakensDen> band-aid, like this
[04:34] <door> yup!
[04:34] <door> band-aid: yup!
[04:35] <Grok_> on my gnome desktop i have a network status indicator that if i open it up it will tell me number of packets and other info as well as what my current ip address is. I don't see this same corresponding app in/on kde. could someone help point me in the right direction to install/find that info?
[04:35] <band-aid> door: lol I'm used to everything being complicated
[04:35] <door> band-aid: do you have a subsection that has a depth of 24
[04:35] <raindog> Warbo:  Thanks.
[04:35] <door> band-aid: aren't we all...
[04:35] <imago> door, because i use 2 different boot loaders plus a floppy disk DDO
[04:35] <Luakagon> Can anyone HERE assist me with rc.local?  They told me to go to #ubuntu
[04:35] <band-aid> door: yes
[04:35] <frantic> helloooo
[04:36] <Warbo> raindog: Does that work? I was thinking maybe Firefox "sticks" itself to each desktop (I don't use Metacity [Ubuntu's default window manager]  so I can't test it)
[04:36] <band-aid> door: the very last one
[04:36] <door> imago: sorry, i'm just confused. so you never turn your computer off?
[04:36] <hawkaloogie> is there a guide for making ubuntu-compatible .deb files from sources?
[04:36] <frantic> does anyone know where that file is that configures the hw clock?
[04:36] <lmosher> A program I am trying to compile requires aclocal-1.6 but it appears I have 1.4 Any ideas? Apparently it's part of the automake package.
[04:36] <door> band-aid: and that *is* the one that matches the number from "default depth?"
[04:36] <imago> door, for about 6 hours every month
[04:36] <frantic> i used to have this problem where my clock was days off when i booted windows
[04:36] <door> imago: ah
[04:36] <frantic> someone here helped me fix it
[04:36] <frantic> now it's only like 6 hours off
[04:37] <band-aid> door: yes
[04:37] <Warbo> raindog: You still here?
[04:37] <door> imago: i would suggest asking the whole channel if there's a way to make sure fstab gets re-detected without a reboot...
[04:37] <longwave> !info automake1.6
[04:37] <ubotu> Package automake1.6 does not exist in dapper
[04:37] <frantic> which is better, but not as good
[04:37] <band-aid> door: default depth is 24, and the last subsection says 24
[04:37] <lmosher> frantic, You do realize you just asked for a software file that defines a -hardware- clock :)
[04:37] <door> band-aid: what does it say by "modes" in that subsection?
[04:37] <imago> door, i am going to reboot see u in 10-20 min
[04:37] <door> imago: i'm sorry
[04:37] <door> imago: i'm not saying you have to
[04:37] <band-aid> door:  "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600"
[04:37] <band-aid> "720x400" "640x480"
[04:37] <frantic> yes, there's clearly a file that defines the relationship between the system time and the hardware clock
[04:38] <frantic> I've configured it before, I just forgot where it is
[04:38] <raindog> Warbo:  I'm looking into it.  What window manager are you using?

[04:39] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:39] <door> band-aid: back up your xorg.conf...twice, just for the heck of it :-)
[04:39] <Warbo> raindog: I was just going to ask if you could do something for me in return, since nobody seems to be responing
[04:39] <band-aid> door: oh god... that dosen't sound good
[04:39] <lmosher> frantic, Ah I see what you're getting at... um, if you're in gnome you can simply right click the time, click "time zone" and set your timezone to grenich mean time b/c unfortuantely by default it appears that gnome assumes your hardware is GMT and (in my case) takes 5 hours off it
[04:39] <eigenlambda> nope... don't see swiftfox being any faster than firefox...
[04:39] <door> band-aid: no worries
[04:39] <door> band-aid: the backups are to make life easier
[04:39] <band-aid> door: can I just make a couple copies onto my desktop?
[04:39] <frantic> not good enough
[04:39] <door> band-aid: sounds great
[04:39] <raindog> Warbo:  Shoot.  I'll do my best.
[04:39] <Warbo> Greenwich I think you'll find
[04:40] <lmosher> frantic, that is assuming your having an issues when you use another OS and the time is off?
[04:40] <lmosher> Warbo, same thing :P
[04:40] <frantic> yes
[04:40] <door> band-aid: the backups are just so that just in case this doesn't work, you'll be able to put your file back *exactly* as it was before
[04:40] <frantic> See, I installed ubuntu before windows
[04:40] <Warbo> raindog: Could you install the xteddy package and run it (just run "xteddy" in terminal) and tell me if a teddy bear appears? For me it is just all white
[04:40] <frantic> and I had to do all kinds of trickery to appease windows because of this
[04:40] <longwave> frantic: /etc/default/rcS controls whether the hardware clock is UTC or not, i think
[04:40] <frantic> ubuntu has been fairly easy to repair
[04:41] <frantic> but i just can't get this clock thing quite right
[04:41] <band-aid> door: ok two copies made onto desktop
[04:41] <lmosher> longwave, cool ty :P
[04:41] <frantic> when i boot windows, it's always 6 hours off
[04:41] <longwave> frantic: that and /etc/timezone are used to figure out the offset, or at least i think that's how it works
[04:41] <band-aid> one thing i have noticed is that linux makes you a MUCH better typer
[04:41] <raindog> Warbo:  I can in a minute.  I'm currently letting aptitude download/install some packages.  When it completes I'll check it out.
[04:42] <frantic> ah i think this rcS file was it
[04:42] <door> band-aid: shiny. ok, do you have a favorite text editor? if so, open it up with sudo or gksudo (depending on if it's graphikal or terminal-based)...and *yeah,* it really does
[04:42] <Warbo> raindog: OK thanks. I have been asking for ages but nobody replies (probably they don't want to admit they have teddies on their desktop)
[04:42] <lmosher> frantic, longwave gave you the answer edit /etc/default/rc5 then change to "UTC=no" on line 15
[04:42] <door> band-aid: otherwise, do this:  sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:42] <lmosher> ah you saw, i was doing the same (that had been driving me nuts in vmware)
[04:42] <Warbo> band-aid: I have become a much better typer than in years of using Amiga :)
[04:42] <frantic> ok i think that should do it right?
[04:42] <lmosher> one way to find out :)
[04:43] <band-aid> door: will the default one that came with this work ok?
[04:43] <frantic> boot windows :(
[04:43] <lmosher> but it looks like it
[04:43] <door> band-aid: gedit?
[04:43] <lmosher> well I'd boot linux first and set yoru clock first
[04:43] <band-aid> door: i guess lol
[04:43] <frantic> i just ran hwclock -w
[04:43] <band-aid> door: i've had this installed for like a total of 4 hours
[04:43] <frantic> which should reset the hw clock
[04:43] <frantic> so the system time
[04:43] <band-aid> door: haven't really gotten too deep into it yet
[04:43] <door> band-aid: wow! well i'm glad you've made it this far!
[04:43] <frantic> which is what windows expects
[04:43] <longwave> if you want to set the hardware clock for sure do it from the bios
[04:43] <longwave> then reboot and the system time will be picked up from that
[04:44] <Dev05> Hi! Is finally the xorg update non-buggy?
[04:44] <band-aid> door: i got flash player installed, that one made me pretty proud
[04:44] <door> band-aid: ok, press <alt>F2, then type gksudo gedit, and then hit enter
[04:44] <door> band-aid: :-D
[04:44] <frantic> alright thanks guys
[04:44] <carrus85> gha, anyone know a quick way to figure out which process is keeping a mountpoint busy so I can kill it?
[04:44] <carrus85> umount's "/media/cdrom0: device is busy" isn't particularly useful...
[04:44] <YoussefAssad> lsof | grep /name/of/mount/point
[04:44] <Warbo> carrus85: I use "umount -l" (lazy unmount), but I am not too sure what it does
[04:44] <empc> door, "sudo gedit" is also valid :p
[04:45] <Dev05> carrus85, Use the System Monitor and then check what process has a File handle to your moint point
[04:45] <band-aid> ok got it open
[04:45] <band-aid> door: got it open
[04:45] <door> empc: apparently, that somehow messes things up
[04:45] <carrus85> ah! my terminal was in the cdrom working directory, silly me
[04:45] <lmosher> I'm trying to compile something and automake1.6 is a dependency however "sudo apt-get automake1.6" reports: "Package automake1.6 is not available, but is referred to by another package." help?
[04:45] <Dev05> carrus85, lol
[04:45] <longwave> carrus85: "fuser" might help, also
[04:45] <door> empc:  i don't really use graphikal apps much, so i don't really know, though
[04:45] <empc> works fine for me door ..
[04:45] <YoussefAssad> lsof, not fuser
[04:45] <kill4killin> ok, now is there someway to set runcompiz.sh when kde starts automatically, because i have to initiate it myself
[04:46] <door> band-aid: shiny! ok...now go down to that same sub-section as before
[04:46] <band-aid> kk
[04:46] <door> band-aid: now, are each of the different resolutions on a different line?
[04:46] <Dev05> longwave, That's just TOO much :)
[04:46] <tatoo> does anybody have a source list w/ the package honeyd??
[04:47] <Dev05> Anyway, again, is the Xserver update working properly now?
[04:47] <Warbo> Dev05: I think so
[04:47] <door> Dev05: yup!
[04:47] <longwave> Dev05: yes
[04:47] <band-aid> door: nope, it looks like the tabbed over and then just let them wrap around with word wrap
[04:47] <door> ok...is the one you want the first one?
[04:47] <HEFO> 
[04:47] <kill4killin> can someone remind me, what are the two xgl channels here on freenode?
[04:48] <door> band-aid: ok...is the one you want the first one?
[04:48] <Warbo> #ubuntu-xgl
[04:48] <Dev05> Warbo, door, longwave, OK, I had a hard time when it totally broke, thanks!
[04:48] <marek> hey
[04:48] <kill4killin> thank you
[04:48] <door> Dev05: that was pretty annoying...
[04:48] <coyanadel> server.irc.com.ar
[04:48] <band-aid> door: yea i want it to be 1280x1024
[04:48] <marek> when i go to a webpage that uses a java applet it says i need a java runtime environment
[04:48] <band-aid> door: and its the first one
[04:48] <marek> but it says its not available for firefox to download
[04:48] <Dev05> door, yeah.
[04:48] <Warbo> Dev05: I wasn't sure since mine is still broke. It broke before the dodgy update, but still isn't fixed (I'm in AIGLX right now)
[04:48] <marek> how do i use applets in firefox with ubuntu?
[04:48] <jamminpotato> does anyone know a keyboard shortcut for opening a terminal?
[04:49] <Warbo> alt-F2 opens a term
[04:49] <door> band-aid: cooool. ok, now, go over to the first character of the first one *after* that resolotion and insert a number sign (#)
[04:49] <Dev05> Warbo, That was just in time. Just killed the update download...
[04:49] <HEFO> hi..can someone help me with detectin internet connection with ubuntu?
[04:49] <Jamminpotato> Warbo i thought alt-f2 jsut opens a window to run a program, how do i make that in to a term
[04:49] <door> Jamminpotato: in gnome?
[04:49] <band-aid> door: are we commenting out the other ones?
[04:49] <Warbo> Dev05: My broken X is unrelated
[04:49] <Jamminpotato> door yea, gnome
[04:49] <Warbo> Jamminpotato: Oh, erm, I am not sure
[04:49] <Warbo> !keyboard
[04:49] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[04:49] <door> band-aid: yup! i have no idea whether this'll work or not, but we'll see :-)
[04:49] <band-aid> door: besides the one I want?
[04:50] <marek> anyone?
[04:50] <band-aid> door: lol
[04:50] <Jamminpotato> thanks ubotu
[04:50] <door> band-aid: yeah, all the rest
[04:50] <band-aid> door: just incase, is their a consol based IRC chat?
[04:50] <IRC> if i install ubuntu 6.06 desktop edition by typing "server" will it install the same stuff as on the ubuntu server seperate disc download?
[04:50] <HEFO> =(
[04:50] <Jamminpotato> ubotu is a bot, right?
[04:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot, right? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:50] <Warbo> band-aid: I use ircII in text-mode
[04:50] <door> band-aid: sudo apt-get install irssi
[04:50] <longwave> band-aid: irssi
[04:50] <Dev05> Warbo, Actually I think I don't really need it anyway...
[04:50] <door> band-aid: also:  before doing anything else
[04:50] <door> band-aid: after you save the file
[04:51] <longwave> Jamminpotato: erm, yes
[04:51] <door> band-aid: write down the command
[04:51] <door> band-aid: sudo cp /path/to/where/i/copied/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:52] <band-aid> door: ok got that installed, and I have commented them out
[04:52] <band-aid> will the effect take place when I save it?
[04:52] <door> band-aid: shiny. now save the file. nope! you need to restart X. did you write down that command?
[04:52] <Daniel2oo6> http://www.djdada.dl.am RnB/HipHop Songs to Download & Musicclips! check it out ;)
[04:52] <band-aid> door: for the irc thing?

[04:53] <IRC> if i install ubuntu 6.06 desktop edition by typing "server" will it install the same stuff as on the ubuntu server seperate disc download?
[04:53] <band-aid> door: ok lemme get that
[04:53] <door> you have it
[04:53] <marek> firefox is saying that i need a java runtime environment, how do i get that so i can use java applets with firefox?
[04:53] <door> band-aid: cp is already installed
[04:53] <door> band-aid: that is the command you will need to type in if you get stuck staring at a fullscreen console
[04:54] <door> band-aid: and after that, you would need to type sudo reboot
[04:54] <band-aid> door: ok got that written down
[04:54] <band-aid> door: ok here i go
[04:54] <door> band-aid: both of those?
[04:54] <door> wait!
[04:54] <door> band-aid: wait!
[04:54] <band-aid> door: lol

[04:54] <band-aid> door: i have the copy command
[04:55] <band-aid> door: what'd i miss?
[04:55] <door> band-aid: don't forget sudo reboot
[04:55] <dudus> I see this:
[04:55] <IRC> if i install ubuntu 6.06 desktop edition by typing "server" will it install the same stuff as on the ubuntu server seperate disc download?
[04:55] <dudus> dudus@dudusbuntu:~/Desktop/robocode$ java -jar robocode-setup-1.1.2.jar

[04:55] <Warbo> shray: I think it is /home/username/.gnome2/session-manual
[04:55] <Dev05> IRC, I don't think so. Desktop's desktop and Server's server.
[04:55] <band-aid> door: ok got it
[04:55] <door> band-aid: type that afterwards, if it's an issue. now, cross your fingers and press control+alt+backspace
[04:55] <shray> Warbo: that doesn't exist
[04:55] <band-aid> door: see ya on the other side
[04:56] <dudus> And that's when I have to accept the license... I accept, and it never comes back!
[04:56] <IRC> Dev05: the server seperate download is like 400mb and the desktop is like 600mb i was just thinking that maybe theyre like the same but the server just has less programs on cd
[04:56] <coyanadel> irc.cl
[04:56] <coyanadel> server irc.cl'
[04:56] <coyanadel> server irc.cl
[04:56] <Warbo> dudus: Java programs have a wrapper around GTK (GIMP Tool Kit, used for drawing buttons and stuff) but that wrapper obviously doesn't like the Ubuntu theme. It should default to some basic settings though, not refuse to load
[04:57] <Warbo> shray: It does for me (but is empty)
[04:57] <dudus> Warbo: yes, I know what you mean... should I try another theme?
[04:58] <Dev05> IRC, I don't think so because even though the Desktop installation CD ISO Image is bigger, the Server has a lot of stuff that is not included by default in the Desktop, but the Desktop has all that nice stuff for desktop use.
[04:58] <Warbo> dudus: The theme shouldn't matter. For example I use the XFCE engine, but Java programs still load, they just apply the colours to a default theme
[04:58] <dudus> If i try -verbose I get a lot of messages about libraries beeing loaded... bot no errors or warnings, besides the one about ubuntulooks
[04:58] <Warbo> I have had Frost and stuff work fine, even with that complaint
[04:59] <IRC> Dev05: ok thanks. do you know if its possible to install an iso over the internet?
[04:59] <dudus> Warbo: the others java programs like Azureus, work well, and they do this default theme thing
[04:59] <Dev05> IRC, I bet you can. There should be a Net Install download. Let me check for you.
[05:00] <Warbo> raindog: You done yet?
[05:00] <band-aid> door: ok i'm back
[05:00] <band-aid> door: it didn't do anything lol
[05:00] <door> band-aid: did it work?
[05:00] <door> oh
[05:01] <raindog> Warbo:  just getting the bear now.
[05:01] <door> band-aid: that's *bizarre*
[05:01] <band-aid> door: its like It just regenerated

[05:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about testing - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:01] <door> band-aid: does the file say what it said before?
[05:01] <Ash-Fox> Anybody know where I can access the testing repositories?
[05:01] <dudus> Even if I Cancel the licence My process sleeps, and doesn't show anything else
[05:01] <Dev05> IRC, I'm starting to think that you can't. May be other disto?
[05:01] <marek> anyone?
[05:01] <door> Ash-Fox: i think that's just debian
[05:01] <Dev05> IRC, distro* for net install.
[05:02] <door> Ash-Fox: on ubuntu, there are backports, though...
[05:02] <Ash-Fox> door, hm, I'll look into that =)
[05:02] <IRC> Dev05: ok thanks. i guess ill have to find another cdr. thanks for your help
[05:02] <band-aid> door: yea just checked it, the comments are still there
[05:02] <Dev05> IRC, No problem.
[05:02] <door> Ash-Fox: ## Ubuntu Backports

[05:02] <door> deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse

[05:03] <door> band-aid: actually...i'm going to have to abandon you now :-(
[05:03] <door> band-aid: i've reached the limit of what i know about that
[05:03] <band-aid> door: awww ok later
[05:03] <door> band-aid: but you might try it
[05:03] <Dev05> IRC, Anyway, you WILL need a CDR.
[05:03] <band-aid> door: lol
[05:03] <door> band-aid: good luck!
[05:03] <band-aid> door: i suppose it wouldn't hurt
[05:04] <door> band-aid: i suppose not. i'm not signing off, so i guess let me know if it does!

[05:05] <janez> hi
[05:05] <janez> the bug in xserver-core package is now fixed?
[05:05] <Warbo> hi
[05:05] <Warbo> yes
[05:05] <KrakensDen> janez, yes
[05:06] <raindog> Warbo:  Yes it works for me.  Now, how do I get it to go away??  :)
[05:06] <Warbo> raindog: put your cursor over it (so it's a heart :) ) and press "q", then uninstall the package
[05:06] <Warbo> Seems my problem might be Composite-related
[05:06] <j3g> i have one question... i need to update a remote machine (so there can't be any crashes... but i can reboot it later just fine)
[05:07] <j3g> from 5.10 to dapper
[05:07] <j3g> is there a safe way to do it?
[05:07] <Warbo> !upgrade
[05:07] <janez> um, ok :)
[05:07] <janez> bye
[05:07] <raindog> Warbo:  I figured it out.  whew.
[05:07] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[05:08] <j3g> but is it SAFE?
[05:08] <j3g> this is a remote machine :(
[05:08] <dudus> I did around my problem in a very scary way...
[05:08] <raindog> I installed the kubuntu and xubuntu-desktops to my ubuntu install.  However, now no matter witch I choose to use it engages my modem during bootup and dials into the internet.  How can I change this behavior so that it doesn't do it by default?
[05:08] <Warbo> Is anyone here using Composite extensions? (XGL uses them by default, and AIGLX recommends them)
[05:08] <Ktron> I give up, I can't install ubuntu heh :)
[05:09] <door> raindog: install bum
[05:09] <door> raindog: (the bootup manager)
[05:09] <Dev05> Ktron, ?
[05:09] <raindog> door:  thanks, I'll check it out.
[05:09] <door> raindog: shiny
[05:09] <dudus> After my process stoped responding I opened System Monitor an noticied the followyng : bash>java>gtk-helper, all sleeping
[05:09] <dr_willis> !dialup
[05:09] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[05:10] <dudus> Then I 'ended' gtk-helper, not killed, ENDED, and it came back!!!!
[05:10] <dudus> I think I should report it
[05:10] <Warbo> Is anyone here using XGL/Compiz?
[05:11] <YoussefAssad> dudus: yea, get a restraining order against gtk-helper
[05:11] <Warbo> It's only trying to help...
[05:11] <Ktron> Dev05, I'm completely stuck and I've tried all I can
[05:11] <eigenlambda> Warbo: ya
[05:11] <dudus> What is this gtk-helper anyway?
[05:11] <j3g> how to install vncserver  on 5.10? it doesn't seem to have that package ..
[05:11] <Ktron> Er, all I've thought to try or been told to
[05:11] <Ktron> brb
[05:12] <Warbo> eigenlambda: Could you please see if xteddy works? It doesn't for me and I think I have narrowed it down to Composite
[05:12] <eigenlambda> whats xteddy?
[05:12] <crdw> Hello! When i'm playing Frozen-Bubble the power manager turns to a black screen even when i don't stop playing. What can i do?

[05:13] <door> Ktron: at what point does it hang?
[05:13] <Dev05> Ktron, Any error message? something?
[05:13] <raindog> Warbo:  xteddy kinda creeps me out.
[05:13] <Steven_M> hi all
[05:13] <door> hello
[05:14] <Warbo> raindog: I don't want to use it with the teddy image, I just want an image viewer which cuts out transparent areas from the window
[05:14] <Ktron> Here, I'll snag out my laptop if you think you might have a suggestion or two yet... It hangs, and the graphical progress window says 'Detecting file systems...' and /var/log/installer/syslog 's last line is 'backup'
[05:14] <mcquaid> hello, i've used linux for ages but never tried using my tv tuner for video capture, well I tried a few years ago and didn't like the apps

[05:15] <Steven_M> Is there a shell command for putting a computer into standby mode?
[05:15] <mcquaid> i just tried pitivi but it just seg faults
[05:15] <mcquaid> anyone have any suggestions for a bt878 tv tuner for video capture?
[05:15] <Steven_M> hi door
[05:16] <crouchingmonkey> can someone give me a quick hand with azureus ?
[05:17] <door> crouchingmonkey: what's the problem?
[05:17] <mcquaid> crouchingmonkey, maybe.. shoot
[05:17] <Ktron> Dev05, 'in there'? you mean on the computer? Yes, I'm currently running windows xp on it (on it now)... I do swap 1 of my 4 hard drives because I want to install linux on a hard drive that isn't plugged in by default, but I could avoid having to switch a hard drive and disconnect a different one
[05:17] <mcquaid> btw, i finally gave up on azureus, utorrent works perfectly in wine
[05:18] <crouchingmonkey> door: i cannot update the SWT graphical library
[05:18] <crouchingmonkey> has something to do with permissions etc.
[05:18] <Dev05> Ktron, What's on that other hard drive?
[05:18] <door> crouchingmonkey: hmmmmm...that's beyond my ken. what i've heard a lot of people suggest is to use a different client. i've found that bittornado works like a charm
[05:18] <door> however, to install/upgrade libraries, you probably just need to be root
[05:19] <door> crouchingmonkey: however, to install/upgrade libraries, you probably just need to be root
[05:19] <Ktron> um, old windows partitions I think, but I told ubuntu it could blow away the whole drive
[05:19] <crouchingmonkey> door: i know but how do i run azureus as root ?
[05:19] <eigenlambda> Warbo: i see a white teddy bear silhouette
[05:19] <Dev05> Ktron, How old is it? May be is dead?
[05:19] <door> crouchingmonkey: <alt>F2, type gksudo azureus, hit enter...however,
[05:19] <Ktron> I'll find out exactly in a minute if you think that's suspect... I'll check and see
[05:20] <Dev05> Ktron, OK.
[05:20] <door> crouchingmonkey: DON'T do anything but upgrade those libraries
[05:20] <Warbo> eigenlambda: Yes! I can finally confirm that it is a bug, and not me being an idiot! Thanks
[05:20] <_w^x_> whats the best cd ripper encoder in the repos?
[05:20] <Warbo> !best
[05:20] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:20] <door> crouchingmonkey: after that, close azureus and start it as your normal user
[05:20] <door> _w^x_: i'm partial to crip
[05:20] <_w^x_> I've got soundjuicer but it only encodes to.ogg and I need mp3
[05:21] <mcquaid> anyone know of a good vid capture app for a bt878 tv tuner?
[05:21] <eigenlambda> what's the best operating system?
[05:21] <door> _w^x_: ah, well nevermind...you need to install an older version to get mp3 support
[05:21] <_w^x_> wait nevermind duh
[05:21] <door> eigenlambda: windoze! (jk)
[05:21] <foo> Hm, I followed the ssl howto wiki for apache and it doesn't seem to be working. I thought I should have like an apache2-sslctl ... but I don't .. .hm, any ideas?
[05:21] <crouchingmonkey> door: gksudo azureus will not start the program
[05:22] <mcquaid> crouchingmonkey, it should what does it say?
[05:22] <door> crouchingmonkey: what error does it give you?
[05:22] <crouchingmonkey> door: command not found
[05:23] <crouchingmonkey> but if i click on the icon it starts just fine
[05:23] <door> crouchingmonkey: ok...first, you need to find out where your azureus is. open up a terminal (this will be painless, i promise)
[05:23] <mcquaid> crouchingmonkey, do this first type azur and hit tab
[05:23] <door> crouchingmonkey: and then type "which azureus"
[05:23] <mcquaid> to make sure it's in your path
[05:23] <rob__> hello
[05:24] <K-tron> Alright, switching to here from the desktop
[05:24] <rob__> any recommendations for an ftp client?
[05:24] <crouchingmonkey> door: it doesnt work
[05:24] <door> you don't get anything? hmmmm...that's odd.
[05:24] <door> ok, try right-clicking on the launcher
[05:25] <door> crouchingmonkey: you don't get anything? hmmmm...that's odd.
[05:25] <door> crouchingmonkey: ok, try right-clicking on the launcher
[05:25] <door> crouchingmonkey: to see if you can "edit" it (or in this case, just look at it)
[05:26] <mcquaid> crouchingmonkey, you can no longer go to properties from menu shortcuts in gnome, you'll have to add it to the panel or desktop first
[05:26] <crouchingmonkey> door: i manged to send it to the desktop
[05:26] <mcquaid> which bugs me btw, you used to be able to
[05:26] <door> crouchingmonkey: eh?
[05:26] <mcquaid> he means he made a desktop shortcut
[05:26] <door> aha
[05:27] <mcquaid> so now right clicky and find out where azureus is located
[05:27] <crouchingmonkey> but i still cand run gksudo /home/fuse/Desktop/Azureus :|
[05:27] <vinnybinny> hello
[05:27] <miko> how do i get opera
[05:27] <miko> err
[05:27] <miko> flock i mean
[05:27] <door> crouchingmonkey: ok...open a terminal again...this time we're gonna find it!
[05:27] <vinnybinny> anyone familiar with this error? "FT_Load_Glyph:error#6
[05:27] <vinnybinny> "
[05:27] <gnujack> good evening all
[05:27] <miko> i have downloaded it already but dont know the next step
[05:27] <crouchingmonkey> door: im ready
[05:27] <door> crouchingmonkey: this time, type "locate azureus | grep bin"
[05:28] <door> crouchingmonkey: does anything come up?
[05:28] <gnujack> im having trouble with my nvidia graphics card (fx 5200 PCI)....if someone could help me get this running with vesa by editing the xorg, id appreciate it
[05:28] <vinnybinny> miko: this helped me http://www.ubuntu.com/news/opera9
[05:28] <crouchingmonkey> door: nothing
[05:28] <door> crouchingmonkey: for serious? that's bizarro. did you just install it?
[05:29] <Dev05> k-tron, Ok, so what is what you have in the old drive.
[05:29] <corevette> can someone help me
[05:29] <mcquaid> crouchingmonkey, did you install azureus through synaptic/apt-get or install it yourself?
[05:29] <door> corevette: with what?
[05:29] <crouchingmonkey> door: yes i did install it with that automatix script
[05:29] <K-tron> Dev05, heh, I think you're right, think that drive is borked, I'll try another
[05:29] <corevette> i know to get rid of grub.....you use the restore disc and type in fixmbr and fixboot.....but my recovery disc doens't have a command prompt
[05:29] <Dev05> K-tron, lol
[05:29] <mcquaid> ok have you tried right clicking on the desktop shortcut you just made to find where it is?
[05:30] <corevette> or can you use the ubuntu command prompt
[05:30] <_w^x_> ok now I need to know how to just take a .ogg audio file and encode it to mp3 or .wav
[05:30] <NickGarvey> _w^x_: oggdec file.ogg
[05:30] <NickGarvey> _w^x_: that will make the .wav
[05:30] <dr_willis> xp  cd's normally have a install/rescue  question.
[05:31] <NickGarvey> _w^x_: lame file.wav to make the .mp3
[05:31] <dr_willis> corevette,  unless ya got some 3rd party 'restore cd' thats not a full xp cd.
[05:31] <gnujack> im having trouble with my nvidia graphics card (fx 5200 PCI)....if someone could help me get this running with vesa by editing the xorg, id appreciate it
[05:31] <_w^x_> NickGarvey, is that in the vorbistools package?
[05:31] <corevette> dr_willis i have an emcahines restore disc...with no command prompt.....can i use the ubuntu command prompt?
[05:31] <fashong> Hello
[05:31] <door> crouchingmonkey: try right-clicking the desktop shortcut to see if you can edit it...
[05:31] <corevette> fashong hey
[05:32] <NickGarvey> _w^x_: no idea
[05:32] <_w^x_> also I need a video production studio application, Cinelerra is sick but freezes on me..
[05:32] <fashong> Are liveCd's meant to be used to install the whole operating system from online instead of burning like 4 cd's?
[05:32] <Steven_M> door: Is there a shell command for putting a computer into standby mode?
[05:32] <dr_willis> corevette,   double check their menus and stuff..  they could just be ripping you off.. you could get any xp cd.. you dont need to enter a serial # or anything just to get to the rescue mode
[05:32] <door> Steven_M: no idea...sorry
[05:32] <vinnybinny> fashong: it depends on the distro
[05:32] <crouchingmonkey> door: yes i can
[05:32] <fashong> say ubuntu or debian
[05:32] <fashong> Fashong:  t
[05:33] <vinnybinny> fashong: you can do a install from the ubuntu cd
[05:33] <ke> I have an Intel HP Pavilion Pentium 4 PC with 3.06 GHz and 504 MB of Ram but for some reason, after it configures the drivers, ubuntu doesn't show up and gives me a blank input screen.
[05:33] <vinnybinny> live cd
[05:33] <door> crouchingmonkey: ok, what does it say the path to the application is?
[05:33] <pdoran> newb question, every time I try to do an update in "apt-get" I get 1 of 2 errors, "connection timed out" or "sub process returned a bzip error", are all the repositories screwed up? Is it no longer practical or possible to do a system update online???
[05:33] <nadanada> has anyone gotten azureus to work properly in ubuntu?
[05:33] <door> Steven_M: sorry
[05:33] <crouchingmonkey> door: /opt/azureus/azureus
[05:33] <Deaigo> if i want to setup the java vnc thing(webpage) on ubuntu what do i do?
[05:33] <miko> Is the ADD/REMOVE program same as ADD NEW APPLICATION
[05:33] <Steven_M> door: that's ok
[05:33] <vinnybinny> fashong: ubuntu just come on one cd (thank god) but they do have processor specific cd's
[05:33] <door> crouchingmonkey: aha!
[05:34] <miko> sorry for the caps
[05:34] <door> crouchingmonkey: ok
[05:34] <corevette> anyone! can i use the ubuntu command prompt on the install disc to type fixmbr instead of on a windows restore disc???
[05:34] <fashong> and debian?
[05:34] <dr_willis> corevette,  NO.. its a XP command.
[05:34] <door> crouchingmonkey: press alt+F2 again
[05:34] <fashong> for linux distros that have more than 1 cd
[05:34] <fashong> they might have a live cd
[05:34] <ke> does anyone have any idea why i can't get it to load past "configuring devices"?
[05:34] <fashong> and it is mainly used to install linux without burning all those cd's
[05:34] <door> crouchingmonkey: but this time type "gksudo /opt/azureus/azureus" and hit enter
[05:34] <crouchingmonkey> door: did it
[05:34] <door> crouchingmonkey: did it work?
[05:34] <fashong> by grabbing the files from Internet or somewhere else
[05:34] <fashong> right?
[05:34] <corevette> dr_willis so if my restore disc doesn't have a command prompt...i'm screwed?
[05:34] <crouchingmonkey> door: thx a lot man
[05:34] <pdoran> newb question, every time I try to do an update in "apt-get" I get 1 of 2 errors, "connection timed out" or "sub process returned a bzip error", are all the repositories screwed up? Is it no longer practical or possible to do a system update online???
[05:34] <vinnybinny> fashong: yeah redhat style or whatnot.
[05:35] <door> crouchingmonkey: lol. everybody assumes i'm a man on here
[05:35] <fashong> alright just wondering
[05:35] <Steven_M> K-tron: Is there a shell command for putting a computer into standby mode?
[05:35] <dr_willis> corevette,  no idea. My last emachine  had a xp disk that let me get to the restore/rescue options.. you can use any XP cd.. borrow a friends.
[05:35] <tatoo> how can i force the installation of a broken package
[05:35] <tatoo> ?
[05:35] <vinnybinny> fashong: ubuntu  = 1 cd.   thankfully
[05:35] <door> crouchingmonkey: by the way, do you still have that terminal open? here's a way to make things easier in the futer
[05:35] <_w^x_> NickGarvey, i need to be able to play these files in my car's stock cd player
[05:35] <door> crouchingmonkey: *future
[05:35] <crouchingmonkey> door: well having common sense helps a lot :P
[05:35] <door> _w^x_: are you trying to burn a cd?
[05:35] <corevette> dr_willis so to get rid of grub....do i tyep fixboot or fixmbr or both?
[05:35] <fishy> Hello all.
[05:35] <fishy> My audio isn't working - I can't hear anything, and in SuperTux and other games, the "sound effects" and "music" options are disabled in the options panel. I'm not really sure what's wrong, so I can't tell you. Is there a way I can reinstall all audio configuration files and restore them back to the original state, without reinstalling the entire OS?
[05:35] <pdoran> are there mirrors for "security.ubuntu.com" ???
[05:36] <crouchingmonkey> door : im all eyez & ears
[05:36] <_w^x_> door, i ripped a cd I bought and want to play a copy in my car and keep the original nice and scratch free.
[05:36] <door> crouchingmonkey: common sense...whatever. who needs it? but in the terminal, if you do the following things:
[05:36] <door> crouchingmonkey: cd /usr/bin
[05:36] <gnujack> what is the command to reconfigure the xserver in the terminal???
[05:36] <_w^x_> door, and soundjuicer ripped it to .ogg but that won't play in my car
[05:36] <door> crouchingmonkey: sudo ln -s /opt/azureus/azureus .
[05:36] <dr_willis> corevette,  both.. it wont hurt anything  :)
[05:37] <corevette> so to get rid of grub....do i tyep fixboot or fixmbr or both?
[05:37] <fishy> Any ideas?
[05:37] <corevette> ok thanks
[05:37] <door> _w^x_: aha! but when you put it back on a cd
[05:37] <tatoo> how can i force the installation of a broken package?
[05:37] <door> _w^x_: it's retranslated into cd audio
[05:37] <door> _w^x_: i think
[05:37] <fishy> I've been asking for an answer to this problem for 6 days now, in this channel. No response has come back in that entire time.
[05:37] <_w^x_> door, so I need to convert those to something that will work in my car's stock cd player
[05:37] <gnujack> what is the command to reconfigure the xserver in the terminal???
[05:37] <door> crouchingmonkey: and that should make it so you won't have to type the whole path ever again :-)
[05:38] <raindog> I just installed AVG for Linux and I'm curious if there is an antivirus email scanner for linux as there doesn't appear to be on with the Linux version of AVG.
[05:38] <fishy> It's like I'm invisible. Can anyone read this?
[05:38] <ke> yes, fishy
[05:38] <ke> i can read it
[05:38] <_w^x_> fishy,
[05:38] <fishy> ok cool :)
[05:38] <door> _w^x_: right....i'm pretty sure that when you burn a cd it's changed from ogg into cd audio, which should be readable
[05:38] <mcquaid> hmm, video capture apps seem just as lacking as they did when I last tried 4 years ago
[05:38] <fishy> just wondering if I was identified or not
[05:38] <pdoran> newb question, every time I try to do an update in "apt-get" I get 1 of 2 errors, "connection timed out" or "sub process returned a bzip error", are all the repositories screwed up? Is it no longer practical or possible to do a system update online???
[05:38] <ke> i'm guessing they are just busy
[05:38] <Fracture> will the new nvidia drivers be backported to dapper ?
[05:39] <_w^x_> door, what burner should I use, I have gnomebaker now.
[05:39] <mcquaid> Fracture, no
[05:39] <crouchingmonkey> door, that makes sense ... ;)
[05:39] <pdoran> its been like this for the last 2 days, is this normal for ubuntu?
[05:39] <mcquaid> well maybe but doubtfull
[05:39] <door> _w^x_: does gnomebaker not work?
[05:39] <door> crouchingmonkey: shiny!
[05:39] <Fracture> mcquaid: taa, is there a way to install them on dapper then ?
[05:39] <_w^x_> I'll brb
[05:39] <door> crouchingmonkey: have fun azureusing
[05:39] <fishy> ugh
[05:39] <dr_willis> pdoran,  servers are having a bit of overload lately it seems. could try some different ones.
[05:39] <crouchingmonkey> door, thx again
[05:40] <door> crouchingmonkey: np, anytime :-)
[05:40] <mcquaid> Fracture, you can try and install the binary file directly from nvidia, but I had issues with an old version of ubuntu doing that
[05:40] <jamesstansell> pdoran: I don't think there official mirrors of security.ubuntu.com
[05:40] <C-ron> fishy i might be able to help
[05:40] <mcquaid> i ended up compling the kernel for nvidia and some other thing i needed
[05:40] <BNOsaosin> door: what is the command to reconfigure the xserver in the terminal???
[05:40] <pdoran> is there a list of "under utilized" servers ?
[05:40] <mcquaid> but a pain in the butt and shouldn't be required for a video driver update
[05:40] <door> BNOsaosin: lol...do i have a "rep" now or something? what're you trying to do?
[05:40] <BNOsaosin> huh?
[05:41] <Ampsonic> Hello!
[05:41] <Ampsonic> anyone around?
[05:41] <BNOsaosin> nah just saw you were actually answering haha
[05:41] <BNOsaosin> :)
[05:41] <pdoran> so is it fair to say that its pretty much IMPOSSIBLE to perform an update of new 6.06 install? For the last 2 days all I get is errors connecting to the repositories....
[05:41] <ramasdf123> HELP!!! I want to reinstall ubuntu without reformatting? will all the programs be deleted and will i lose my data?
[05:41] <door> BNOsaosin: i was just being ironical because you're the second person who specifically messaged me about a command-line app...
[05:41] <jman8888> I was reading the ubuntu wiki. And i now want to have a explenation for this. Why is it illegal in some areas to have Codecs like Wav,Mp3,Mov,Avi Installed without "Paying the Developers?" I dont get it so if i have my Mp3's i cant legally play them?
[05:41] <jamesstansell> pdoran: this page may be of interest: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[05:41] <door> BNOsaosin: what're you trying to do to the xserver?
[05:41] <K-tron> heh Dev05, if it turns out to be that I was trying to install to a bad hd, I'd feel like a tool and a half
[05:41] <K-tron> which I'm pretty sure I will heh
[05:42] <fishy> C-ron: The symptoms are 1) No audio is playing in browsers in Flash files, 2) No audio is playing anywhere else, and 3) On sites like pandora.com, the "progress bar" telling me how far it got into the song, doesn't even start moving. I'm not really sure what's wrong. Since every computer is different, I know you can't send me your config files (well, I don't think it would work), but is there a way to restore them, or reinstall them?
[05:42] <Dev05> K-tron, Anyway, that's a bug. It shouldn't crash.
[05:42] <ramasdf123> HELP!!! I want to reinstall ubuntu without reformatting? will all the programs be deleted and will i lose my data?
[05:42] <BNOsaosin> well, i had an ATI card installed, wasnt working right with XGL so i put my old FX5200 in....it wouldnt start the xserver with the new card, so i want to edit the xorg.conf to let the nvidia card use vesa to get into the gui
[05:42] <K-tron> Dev05, heh... hopefully that really is the problem, I'll find out soon enough though
[05:43] <Dev05> ramasdf123, I guess you'll have to reinstall your applications ->I guess-<
[05:43] <jamesstansell> pdoran: I had errors similar to yours sometimes when I was still on dialup
[05:43] <gb453> !hostap
[05:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hostap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:43] <Ampsonic> Quick question, just need someone to point me in the right direction of what to be looking at: I would like to have a quick / easy website that only I can access that will let me search through 100,000+ files and download the results
[05:43] <K-tron> Dev05, if I let the livecd boot, run some commands, init 1 and init 5 again (to get X working) that shouldn't break affect the installer, right?
[05:44] <C-ron> fishy: are you a forum member?
[05:44] <BNOsaosin> any ideas?
[05:44] <jman8888> I was reading the ubuntu wiki. And i now want to have a explenation for this. Why is it illegal in some areas to have Codecs like Wav,Mp3,Mov,Avi Installed without "Paying the Developers?" I dont get it so if i have my Mp3's i cant legally play them? If you buy a dvd your not allowed to play it (I asked before. No responce.)
[05:44] <fishy> C-ron: Yes I am
[05:44] <Dev05> K-tron, emm... Why would you do that?
[05:44] <door> BNOsaosin: so are you stuck in CLI?
[05:45] <door> BNOsaosin: also...i won't know you messaged me unless you put my nick at the front...
[05:45] <ramasdf123> Dev05 ur not sre?
[05:45] <C-ron> fishy: have you read this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449  ?
[05:45] <jamesstansell> jman8888: as best I understand, it's a patent issue
[05:45] <BNOsaosin> yes....cant start x unless i remove the nvidia card....i just want to configure it with vesa, log in to gui and run easy ubuntu to configure it
[05:45] <BNOsaosin> sry
[05:45] <door> BNOsaosin: no worries
[05:45] <BNOsaosin> on a mac....god knows theres a lack of good IRC clients for us :(
[05:45] <dr_willis> jman8888,  when you buy a dvd player (ie for the tv) part of the cost IS going to the makers of the dvd consortium (or whoever the heck it is) :)
[05:45] <qch> BNOsaosin: how about sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[05:45] <jman8888> jamesstansell, So why cant stores online sell oog's?
[05:45] <door> BNOsaosin: bleah
[05:45] <jamesstansell> jman8888: rather absurd, though, isn't it?
[05:45] <jman8888> jamesstansell, Yeah.
[05:46] <door> BNOsaosin: uhhh...are you using the default nvidia driver that came with ubuntu?
[05:46] <Dev05> ramasdf123, I just guess so because I think it will re-install the OS. Your files won't be lost if you explicitely tell the installer NOT to format your partitions.
[05:46] <K-tron> Dev05, method 1 of http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide seems to be what I need to do to get X working... obviously I can't reboot, so I init 1 then init 5 (heh, I could probably try to restart just the 3 services but I didn't seem to have much luck at that)
[05:46] <BNOsaosin> im not sure, ive never sed an nvidia card with linux
[05:46] <DarkMageZ> what package is dd part of?
[05:46] <door> BNOsaosin: i guess that means yes, since you didn't do anything special :-)
[05:47] <Dev05> ramasdf123, What I don't know if the re-install will overwrite our config files.
[05:47] <fishy> C-ron: It worked before. My guess is that I screwed up the config accidentally.
[05:47] <door> BNOsaosin: ok...let's see. type sudo aptitude
[05:47] <meathead_> anyone here use rtorrent?
[05:47] <jamesstansell> jman8888: no reason they couldn't sell oggs, but they've convinced themselves they won't make money that way
[05:47] <BNOsaosin> door: well i dont think im useing any drivers right now haha cause i cant get into X
[05:47] <Dev05> K-tron, ??? You just have to but the CD in, boot it and then start the installer.
[05:47] <dr_willis> meathead_,  i have in the past.
[05:47] <ramasdf123> Dev05, i want everything but my files to be deleted, like all the config files, program files and XGL I installed
[05:47] <door> BNOsaosin: right...
[05:47] <meathead_> dr_willis: did you compile it yourself?
[05:47] <door> BNOsaosin: are you in aptitude?
[05:48] <K-tron> Dev05, X doesn't come up correctly by default
[05:48] <jman8888> jamesstansell, If i could i would start a Linux Freindly Itunes altenitve that Sells oog's
[05:48] <BNOsaosin> door: i will try the dpkg-reconfigure and see if i can get it going.....let me try that, the comp is in the other room
[05:48] <dr_willis> meathead_,  I have befor.. last time i thought it was in the repos
[05:48] <mcquaid> are there any reps for mythtv .19?
[05:48] <dr_willis> !info rtorrent
[05:48] <ubotu> rtorrent: ncurses BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.4.2-1 (dapper), package size 152 kB, installed size 448 kB
[05:48] <door> BNOsaosin: oh, ok
[05:48] <BNOsaosin> door; thanks for patience :(
[05:48] <Dev05> ramasdf123, I really don't know what to tell you. Why do you want to re-install? May be I can help you fix your problems without re-installing :)
[05:48] <door> BNOsaosin: np...i'll try to help better when you get back
[05:48] <meathead_> dr_willis: it is in the repos, but my tracker doesn't allow for the really old version that's in dapper... 4.2
[05:48] <K-tron> Dev05, but the the steps in that guide to switch drivers do work, and when I init 5 it'll load up gdm and I'll get a desktop :)
[05:48] <dr_willis> meathead_,  use the source luke! :)
[05:48] <marshall_> hey guys
[05:48] <Dev05> K-tron, So do that before you actually call the installer.
[05:49] <meathead_> I need to compile a new version, but everytime i SUCESSFULLY install libtorrent and then try to install rtorrent it tells me libtorrent isn't installed
[05:49] <BNOsaosin> door: ok thanks
[05:49] <marshall_> i just updated and my atheros wlan card (ath0) isnt recognized anymore
[05:49] <ramasdf123> Dev05, there is too much junk i dont use and i tried installin stuff that doesnt work so i just want to clean everything
[05:49] <K-tron> Dev05, oh, yes, of course, I just wanted to make sure that having init'd 1 and init'd 5 on a system before I start installing wouldn't mess anything up
[05:49] <marshall_> i tried lsmod and madwifi doesnt show anymore
[05:49] <ramasdf123> Dev05 , i was trying to go VPN to wrok
[05:49] <ramasdf123> work*
[05:50] <door> marshall_: is madwifi a kernel module?
[05:50] <Dev05> ramasdf123, So just desinstall all that the apps. that you don't longer need.
[05:50] <marshall_> i tried modprobe madwifi and modprobe madwifi-ng and it says that modules by those names cant be found
[05:50] <jamesstansell> jman8888: there's some evidence out there that making downloads free, but prominently letting people know how to pay for what they like, would actually make a lot more money
[05:50] <glick> scuse me whats the name of the ubuntu wifi config utility?
[05:50] <Dev05> K-tron, Oh, no, no. Shouldn't be any problem.
[05:50] <ramasdf123> tried that, i used automatix
[05:50] <door> marshall_: stupid question, but were you root? also, have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure madwifi?"
[05:50] <ramasdf123> dev05, tried that, i used automatix but i for some reason i cant uninstall
[05:50] <jamesstansell> jman8888: but first you have to have the right to distribute tunes that people like
[05:51] <poningru> how do I download the kernel source?
[05:51] <poningru> using the apt-get source
[05:51] <Dev05> ramasdf123, Mmm... KDE or GNOME?
[05:51] <jamesstansell> poningru: the package should be something like kernel-source
[05:51] <marshall_> door, theres an idea
[05:51] <glick> ?
[05:51] <popupman> does anyone happen to know, in detail, how to use wine?
[05:51] <door> marshall_: i just hope it's a good one :-)
[05:51] <poningru> ah ok thanks let me try that
[05:51] <marshall_> door: but do i need an internet connection to reconfigure madwifi
[05:51] <ramasdf123> dev05, GNOME
[05:51] <dr_willis> popupman,  wine path/to/windowsexecutable.exe
[05:51] <dr_willis> !wine
[05:51] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:51] <raindog> Does ClamAV scan email?
[05:52] <LadyNikon> raindog: yes
[05:52] <door> marshall_: i don't *think* so
[05:52] <LadyNikon> at least the windoze version does
[05:52] <jman8888> jamesstansell, I think that Somebody needs to make like Ktunes or Gtunes. And make it play and download oog's. I wish i could know how much the license would be for how much.
[05:52] <argument> !vmware
[05:52] <LadyNikon> oh wait.. i read that wrong
[05:52] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository. Instructions to install VMWare Server can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingVMWare
[05:52] <Dev05> ramasdf213, Use Synaptic. Alt+F2 and then start: gksudo synaptic
[05:52] <door> marshall_: but if you do, it'll just exit and give you an error message without breaking your computer
[05:52] <popupman> dr_willis, yes, i know that much. but, how do i add a folder in the winodws directories?
[05:52] <marshall_> is it possible to run your windows os while you're in linux and have windows use all the drivers youve installed on it?
[05:52] <jamesstansell> poningru: package name is linux-source
[05:52] <marshall_> door: lol ok thans
[05:53] <raindog> LadyNikon:  Thanks.
[05:53] <marshall_> door: i gotta switch back and try it now
[05:53] <dr_willis> popupman,  wine makes a 'fake' windows  drive/setup in the .wine dir.  check it out.
[05:53] <door> marshall_: good luck!
[05:53] <glick> does anyone know the name of the default gnome wifi config program that ships with ubuntu??
[05:53] <dr_willis> popupman,  then theres the wine config files. and the wine config tool (which i rarely ever use)
[05:53] <dr_willis> popupman,  that controll that stuff
[05:53] <door> glick: network-manager, i think, has some settings
[05:54] <door> glick: or maybe it's network-admin
[05:54] <popupman> dr_willis, ill take a look to see where the actual files are stored. are they in the /usr/lib/wine folder though?
[05:54] <dr_willis> popupman,  NO.. each user has a .wine directory
[05:54] <dr_willis> popupman,  one is made by wine
[05:54] <popupman> dr_willis, ah. ok. ill go look for that one then
[05:54] <Killeroid> !qemu
[05:54] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[05:54] <dr_willis> popupman,  wine proberly has some system wide default configs also on the system
[05:54] <SillyZ> evneing
[05:55] <MuteMathSSR> hello?
[05:55] <ramasdf123> dev05, what does that do?
[05:55] <popupman> dr_willis, do you happen to know where the config files pointing to the actual location would be as i cant seem to find it?
[05:55] <SillyZ> quick q, ubuntu, xubuntu 6.06.1, wahts the codename for gnome? metacity?
[05:55] <dr_willis> popupman,  nope. try 'locate wine'
[05:55] <popupman> dr_willis, im not exactly used to the linux file systems as its my first time on linux ><
[05:55] <Dev05> ramasdf123, It's a powerful Package Management program :)
[05:55] <BNOsaosin> door: im going to go on my laptop near the compter im working on....if you are free when im back im having trouble still
[05:55] <MuteMathSSR> Mmzkay, what can I type in my terminal to check my fanspeed?  (over heating problems) P4 in a laptop
[05:56] <door> SillyZ: i'm not quite sure what you mean...do you mean the name of the application to install?
[05:56] <K-tron> Dev05, I'm up to up to the same point again in the install... heh, let's see if it makes it beyond detecting file systems/'backup'
[05:56] <door> BNOsaosin: sure, i'm free
[05:56] <BNOsaosin> ty
[05:56] <ramasdf123> dev05, its not opening
[05:56] <Dev05> K-tron, I hope it will.
[05:56] <ramasdf123> dev05, asks for pw and does nothing
[05:56] <SillyZ> door like one version was named metacity, and the enothe was someting else
[05:56] <popupman> dr_willis, thanks for that. thats a command i need to know and will most likely use a lot xD. anyway, i found the files. thanks for your help
[05:56] <door> SillyZ: so are you just trying to install gnome and metacity?
[05:57] <door> SillyZ: did you want to install the whole gnome environment, too?
[05:57] <SillyZ> trying to install some themes here from gnome-look.org but having problems i think its the wrong version
[05:57] <Dev05> ramasdf123, in the Terminal do: sudo synaptic
[05:57] <dr_willis> popupman,  it pays to read a few linux/shell tutorials and learn the FUNdamentals
[05:57] <SillyZ> Im running gnome as we speak door
[05:57] <door> SillyZ: are those in the "gtk2 themes" section?
[05:57] <ramasdf123> dev05, ~$ sudo synaptic
[05:57] <ramasdf123> synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:57] <SillyZ> no they were in metacity and celestia? i belive it was
[05:58] <SillyZ> sorry compiz
[05:58] <door> SillyZ: ok...this is going to sound like a stupid question
[05:58] <popupman> dr_willis, ill go do that i suppose. i actually installed ubuntu last night and havent had much time to do any poking around. bow now i need to get a windows version of jGrasp to work.. soo.. eh..
[05:58] <SillyZ> not celestia
[05:58] <Dev05> ramasdf123, lol, hold on.
[05:58] <jamesstansell> jman8888: this article will probably interest you: http://www.janisian.com/article-internet_debacle.html
[05:58] <door> SillyZ: but do you use metacity as your window manager in XFCE4?
[05:58] <SillyZ> fire when ready door, stupid questions seem to follow me
[05:58] <MuteMathSSR> mkay, who wants to be my mate?
[05:58] <door> SillyZ: I *think* that by default XFCE provides its on window manager
[05:59] <meathead_> dr_willis: ?
[05:59] <ivx>  can some one help me install the w32codecs. when i try to install it says Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:59] <ivx> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[05:59] <ivx> is only available from another source
[05:59] <SillyZ> on XFCE I only use the default what ever that may be, i havent dug too far into it yet
[05:59] <K-tron> Dev05, still hung; I'll try disconnecting every hard drive except for one that I know works and that I know I can wipe
[05:59] <dr_willis> huh?
[05:59] <meathead_> dr_willis: you never answered my question about rtorrent
[05:59] <door> ivx:  automatix is the way to go!
[05:59] <SillyZ> iok so metacity is for xfce, special enviornment
[05:59] <door> ivx:  search on the forums for automatix
[05:59] <Dev05> ramasdf123, in the Terminal run: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libvte.so.9 /usr/lib/libvte.so.4
[05:59] <dr_willis> meathead_,  what about it? if you need the latest.. use the souce.
[05:59] <Dev05> ramasdf123, Then again: sudo synaptic
[05:59] <SillyZ> so for gnome i prolly want the gtk-2 themes
[05:59] <meathead_> dr_willis: do you know why rtorrent would be saying I don't have libtorrent installed when I try to compile it?
[06:00] <regeya> eep.  did someone just say that metacity is for xfce???
[06:00] <ivx> door: i'll look it up. what is it a name of a codec?
[06:00] <meathead_> dr_willis: when I very much have libtorrent installed
[06:00] <door> SillyZ: for xfce you probably want gtk2 themes 2
[06:00] <saosinBNO> door: back and ready to go....i tried the dpkg reconfigure....it was prefilling values for my onboard video card....im in aptitude and awaiting your instructions
[06:00] <dr_willis> meathead_,  you need the libtorrent-dev files would be MY guess
[06:00] <ramasdf123> dev05, ~$ ok
[06:00] <Dev05> K-tron, wow, ok...
[06:00] <SillyZ> really?
[06:00] <meathead_> dr_willis: I got em :(
[06:00] <SillyZ> where does compiz come into play then door?
[06:00] <door> ivx:  it's probably not in the repos by default...automatix is a program that installs hard-to-get things for you
[06:00] <jamesstansell> ivx: automatix is a script
[06:00] <dr_willis> meathead_,  no idea. i can try to compile it.. i guess.. brb,,
[06:00] <ramasdf123> dev05, now what?
[06:01] <BNOsaosin> sry
[06:01] <Dev05> ramasdf123, Did Synaptic open up?
[06:01] <ivx> door jamesstansell alright i'll look it up thanks
[06:01] <door> SillyZ: i think so...
[06:01] <door> ivx: cool
[06:01] <door> SillyZ: you might google "xfce4 theme"
[06:01] <door> SillyZ: and see what comes up...
[06:01] <ramasdf123> dev05, yes
[06:01] <door> BNOsaosin: welcome back
[06:02] <BNOsaosin> haha thanks
[06:02] <BNOsaosin> im in apt like you said
[06:02] <door> BNOsaosin: ok...so reconfiguring didn't work?
[06:02] <wolfmanz> Anyone here using Knotes and have it load on boot up?
[06:02] <SillyZ> aye will do, thanks again for all the help door
[06:02] <jamesstansell> ivx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5 has information about installing w32codecs
[06:02] <BNOsaosin> door: nope, it was recognizing my onboard not the nvidia
[06:02] <door> SillyZ: good luck
[06:02] <gb453> can anyone help me get wpa_supplicant running? debug here -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21687
[06:02] <Dev05> ramasdf123, so then go search and look for the packages that you want to uninstall. Be careful :)
[06:02] <door> BNOsaosin: pardon my ignorance, but what do you mean by your "onboard?"
[06:02] <nrdb> if I where to put the contents of the LiveCD .iso file on a partition is it posible to then have grub boot from that partition as if it where the LiveCD?
[06:02] <ramasdf123> ok
[06:02] <ramasdf123> dev05, ok
[06:02] <ramasdf123> dev05, thanks
[06:03] <jamesstansell> ivx: "This package is not available from the Ubuntu repositories due to licensing and legal restrictions. You can download the package from an unoffical repository and install it with dpkg"
[06:03] <Dev05> ramasdf123, I mean CAREFUL with what you uninstall. If you don't know what the package does, search information about in Google.
[06:03] <jamesstansell> ivx: automatix is one tool that automates the download and install for you.  Another one is easyubuntu.  I haven't used either myself.
[06:03] <BNOsaosin> door: i have 2 PCI video cards installed, ATI, nVidia...the ATI is what the install was set up with....i added the nvidia to try and get it working. i also have onboard intel video (on the mobo)
[06:04] <jamesstansell> !codec
[06:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:04] <jamesstansell> !w32codecs
[06:04] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:04] <ivx> jamesstansell: well how did you get w32codec to install?
[06:04] <door> BNOsaosin: ok...hm. i guess the first thing to do would be to install pciutils so we can find out if the computer even knows your new card exists
[06:05] <nrdb> ivx: do you have universe and mulitverse repsotories enabled?
[06:05] <door> so press / to search in aptitude, type pciutils, & press enter
[06:05] <door> BNOsaosin: so press / to search in aptitude, type pciutils, & press enter
[06:05] <jamesstansell> ivx: did you find the automatix or easyubuntu instructions? or did you read the instruction on the RestrictedFormats page?
[06:05] <ivx> nrdb: yes then i updated and tried to install
[06:05] <wweasel> I am compiling a program that requires the lastest version of libusb, which is not in the Dapper repo. I could compile libusb from source...or....would it be a bad idea to download the deb out of the Edgy repo?
[06:05] <door> BNOsaosin: then you can press + to mark it for installation and g g to install it...
[06:05] <BNOsaosin> door: ok, and install pciutils-dev?'
[06:06] <ivx> jamesstansell i am doing the one now i haven't gotten any error i'll see if it works
[06:06] <door> hmmm...press n to go to the next time it comes up
[06:06] <door> BNOsaosin: hmmm...press n to go to the next time it comes up
[06:06] <ramasdf123> dev05, Thanks again
[06:06] <door> BNOsaosin: i don't think you need the dev files
[06:06] <ramasdf123> dev05, do u know how to set VPN on ubuntu?
[06:06] <Dev05> ramasdf123, No problem!
[06:06] <wweasel> Guys? Would it be a bad idea to install a deb downloaded from the Edgy repo?
[06:06] <Dev05> ramasdf132, Nope. Sorry. Any VPN Geek here???
[06:06] <ramasdf123> dev05,  ubnutu forum didnt help
[06:06] <door> BNOsaosin: the program you're looking for is just pciutils
[06:07] <fishy> Ok, when I do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop," I get a whole giant list of dependencies. Why? I thought ubuntu-desktop was supposed to install those for me.
[06:07] <ramasdf123> kol kol
[06:07] <jamesstansell> ivx: w32codecs (and flash and their ilk) could impair the stability of your system.  Just something to be aware of
[06:07] <fishy> the torpedo god
[06:07] <door> BNOsaosin: actually, it may be easier to quit aptitude and type in "sudo aptitude install pciutils"
[06:07] <BNOsaosin> door: ugggg my wireless does not want to work in CLI :(
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> fishy,  thats what its saying.. it will install the needed dpeendencies
[06:07] <popupman> !wine
[06:07] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:07] <door> BNOsaosin: oh, jeez...that sucks. ok, do you use ndiswrapper or what?
[06:07] <wweasel> fishy: Ubuntu desktop is a meta-package, which is jsut a package which depends on alot of things. You install the dependencies.
[06:08] <BNOsaosin> door: will lspci give me the info i need?
[06:08] <door> BNOsaosin: hopefully
[06:08] <sebastian> \q
[06:08] <wweasel> Guys: Would installing an Edgy deb in Dapper be a bad idea?
[06:08] <BNOsaosin> door: indeed, ndis
[06:08] <ivx> jamesstansell i am just trying to play mp3s
[06:08] <argument> in gvim... why would CTRL-SHIFT-w s "not work" e.g. it just behaves like CTRL-SHIFT-w never happend and just does the literal 's' command. it just deletes the next letter and puts me in insert mode
[06:08] <fishy> Dr_Willis and wweasel: I know that. It doesn't let me install because it says it depends on those. "Depends on gnome-panel, but it is not going to be installed."
[06:08] <sebastian> quit
[06:08] <BNOsaosin> door: ok ill get out of here and run that cmd
[06:08] <door> BNOsaosin: ok...do sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[06:08] <crimsun> wweasel: yes.
[06:08] <wweasel> crimsun: Argh...then I need to compile it from source :(
[06:08] <jamesstansell> ivx: the helixplayer project is expected to support the windows codecs before long, possibly by the end of the year.  If that really happens, then they could possibly be supported from at least multiverse by ubuntu 7.04
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> fishy,  you dident MENTION tha tlast part. :P
[06:08] <tuxar> sebastian, use /leave #ubuntu
[06:09] <door> BNOsaosin: and after you've modprobed it, try this:  sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup wlan0
[06:09] <jamesstansell> ivx: just mp3s?  I don't think you would need w32codecs for that
[06:09] <fishy> Dr_Willis: So what's wrong? Will I have to install Ubuntu for the 5th time?
[06:09] <sebastia1> hello
[06:09] <door> ivx: search for mp3 in synaptic
[06:09] <Deaigo> how do i setup the java vnc viewer on ubuntu?
[06:10] <ivx> door: search for it in what
[06:10] <lownoma925> My brother is having trouble with his wireless card on his new ubuntu installation. (Toshiba Satelite)
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> fishy,  i would guess the package system some how is confused.    theres some options to apt-get ya can use.. but ive rarely ever needed them. to force the isntalls
[06:10] <lownoma925> Can anyone point him in the right direction
[06:10] <door> ivx: synaptic is the package manager you use to install programs
[06:10] <ivx> door nver mind
[06:10] <wweasel> door, ivx: I think ivx needs gstreamer0.10-mad
[06:10] <sebastia1> can anyone help me to downgrade my linux kernel ?
[06:10] <sebastia1> using xubuntu 6.06.1
[06:10] <ivx> door yeah according to synapitc it is installed
[06:10] <BNOsaosin> door: haha ok, i got the wireless up and running....i tried a ping and forgot to limit it haha how do i stop it
[06:11] <door> BNOsaosin: control-c

[06:11] <quintin> is emule not in any repositories?
[06:12] <fishy> Dr_Willis: Should I accept it or not?
[06:12] <jman8888> Is there a way to have shockwave in ubuntu? (Not flash i already have that but shockwave stuff wont work)_
[06:12] <Deaigo> i just want to open my browser and goto ubuntu:5800 and use the java screen
[06:12] <el_taco> ok this is getting frustrating. I can't find info on how to change the applications menu. can anyone point me in the right direction.
[06:12] <BNOsaosin> door: done
[06:12] <eugman> Hey, how can I see the list of games I've installed from the terminal? Also is nethack much fun?
[06:12] <argument> quintin, ktorrent
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> fishy,  ive rarely had things break like that..    so cant really tell ya.
[06:12] <jamesstansell> ivx: the main package you need installed is gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[06:12] <argument> quintin, is teh best IMO
[06:12] <tuxar> el_taco, use alacarte
[06:12] <lownoma925> It says in the device manager that eth1 is unknown but it detects it as his wifi card
[06:13] <ushooz> jman8888: not without using wine and a hackish method
[06:13] <el_taco> tuxar: that installed by default?
[06:13] <IcemanV9> jman8888: unforunately, there is none (shockwave) for linux
[06:13] <door> BNOsaosin: here's something you can do, too, that might make this a li'l easier (sorry this is taking so long)...sudo aptitude install irssi. then press alt+f2 to go to another shell
[06:13] <fishy> Dr_Willis: If anything goes wrong, it'll just be another reason to reinstall. :)
[06:13] <door> BNOsaosin: so then you won't have to go back and forth
[06:13] <el_taco> tuxar: i'm blind sorry
[06:13] <sebastia1> anyone ?
[06:13] <el_taco> tuxar: thanks :)
[06:13] <door> BNOsaosin: and then you might go ahead and try lspci
[06:13] <tuxar> el_taco, nevermind
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> fishy,  normally the first thing i do on a ubuntu install is install kubuntu-desktop and several dozen other packages.. rarely have issues.  and of coruse if ya know the apt-get systme- you proberly wouldent need to reinstall.
[06:14] <jamesstansell> Deaigo: you probably need the vnc server installed for that.  I'm not familiar with the current packaging
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> apt-get is oneof those things thats worth learning. and learning well
[06:14] <IcemanV9> jman8888: like ushooz said, it is possible with wine
[06:14] <Deaigo> kk
[06:14] <Deaigo> i have vnc running
[06:14] <BNOsaosin> door: done
[06:14] <Deaigo> just with out the java thingo
[06:14] <jman8888> ushooz, ? How will i still be able to have firefox?
[06:14] <KanRiNiN> Hi guys.  I'm trying to remove the xorg-driver-fglrx package so I can install the new driver, and apt-get keeps returning an "error 2"
[06:14] <lownoma925> Can anyone help me with a laptop wireless card issue?
[06:15] <jman8888> ushooz, How do i do it?
[06:15] <jamesstansell> deaigo: tightvnc?
[06:15] <Deaigo> the one that comes with it
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> I tend to use the vnc4server/viewer
[06:15] <Deaigo> libvnc or something
[06:15] <jamesstansell> Deaigo: looks like the package would be tightvnc-java
[06:16] <door> BNOsaosin: ok...so in that other terminal you can go ahead and log into irssi...type irssi and then type /connect freenode, then /join #ubuntu...then you won't have to switch computers. and for lspci, do you see your card in the output?
[06:16] <Deaigo> yeh i installed
[06:16] <Deaigo> vnc-java and tightvnc-java
[06:16] <BNOsaosin> yep its properly recognized
[06:16] <cynikal> lownoma925: whats the problem?
[06:16] <BNOsaosin> door: brb on irssi
[06:16] <Fracture> are there any problems with installing the latest NVIDIA driver, that nvidia provides on their site ?
[06:16] <jamesstansell> does nx have a java client?
[06:16] <door> BNOsaosin: shiny
[06:16] <er4z0r> hi
[06:16] <sebastia1> so can anyone tell me how to downgrade my kernel ? Synaptic->Force version is somehow disabeld
[06:17] <tuxar> door, are you using konversation ?
[06:17] <cynikal> sebastia1: why would you want to?
[06:17] <ushooz> jman8888: easiest way is something like Crossover. Google wine + shackwave 10
[06:17] <ushooz> shockwave 10
[06:17] <door> tuxar: no, irssi
[06:17] <wweasel> I'm having a problem. I need to update libusb to the latest stable version x.x.12, when the repos has x.x.10. I think I am supposed to uninstall libusb before compiling and installing the new version. But a bunch of packages depend on it...
[06:17] <door> tuxar: why?
[06:18] <door> wweasel: here's a neat trick
[06:18] <tuxar> door, because when I use konversation puts the name and : after it, just curiosity
[06:18] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: hola
[06:18] <door> tuxar: sweet
[06:18] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: hallo!
[06:18] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: just a sec
[06:18] <K-tron> wildest imagination news story-- google buys transgaming, renames cedega 'Gega' and makes it free as in freedom
[06:19] <BNOsaosin-tux> door:np :)
[06:19] <door> wweasel: actually...i'm sorry. i don't actually know how the trick works with libraries
[06:19] <wweasel> door: the other option was, I noticed the latest version is in the Edgy repo. But that sounded like a bad idea from the get-go.
[06:20] <jman8888> Im gonna try it with wine
[06:20] <lownoma925> Anyone knowledgeable with toshiba laptops?
[06:20] <door> wweasel: you might try reading the man page for dpkg-divert
[06:20] <IcemanV9> ushooz: ?? just install win32 fx with wine, then install win32 shockwave, right?
[06:20] <door> wweasel: which can let you rename a program so when you install a different version, they won't conflict
[06:20] <wweasel> door: Perhaps I could compile it into a .deb file? but I don't know how to do that.
[06:21] <door> wweasel: ask if anybody knows how to divert a library to a new name
[06:21] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...let's look at your xorg.conf
[06:21] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: ok
[06:21] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: less /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:21] <wweasel> door: I don't think I need to keep the old version...
[06:21] <door> wweasel: the thing is, this way all the ubuntu apps that depend on it won't break
[06:22] <door> wweasel: :-/
[06:22] <ushooz> IcemanV9: not familiar with win32 fx. I have only ever tried Crossover a long time ago. I have not great need of Shockwave Director stuff
[06:22] <door> wweasel: if i may ask, why do you need the new version?
[06:22] <IcemanV9> on another box, i installed win32 fx (including flash9) so my wife can watch the Lost show from ABC video.
[06:22] <wweasel> door: libmtp depends on the latest version of libusb.
[06:23] <wweasel> door: I need libmtp to get my MTP Music Player to work :P
[06:23] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: for some reason, the device is listed as my integrated video card...not what i installed with
[06:23] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...find "section device"--specifically, the device section with your card in it. does it exist?
[06:23] <glick> hey does anyone have a platinum dlink N series wireless card working with linux?
[06:23] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: only 1 device, the one i stated
[06:23] <door> wweasel: are you trying to install libmtp manually (not in the repos)?
[06:23] <wweasel> door: It does not exist in the rpos.
[06:23] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: is there another section with you new one in it?
[06:24] <door> wweasel: aha
[06:24] <tomasz27> Can I run Dreamweaver 8 under Ubuntu?
[06:24] <BNOsaosin-tux> glick: running pre-n?
[06:24] <door> wweasel: ok, try this
[06:24] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: no
[06:24] <glick> BNOsaosin what do you mean?
[06:24] <door> wweasel: apt-cache search libusb
[06:24] <door> wweasel: do you see one with "dev" after it?
[06:24] <wweasel> door: I was thinking, what if I compiled the latest version of libusb into deb? Then I could just install the deb and have it replace the old version cleanly.
[06:24] <glick> im thinkin of getting this card: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7843701&type=product&id=1142298456843
[06:24] <wweasel> door: yep
[06:24] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...let's try writing you one, then :-)
[06:25] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: haha agreed
[06:25] <quintin> can someon e tell me a wireless pcmcia card that won't be a total pain in the ass?
[06:25] <IcemanV9> tomasz27: maybe with wine - check out @ winehq app db (winehq.org)
[06:25] <door> first, get into aptitude
[06:25] <tomasz27> THX
[06:25] <door> and search for nvidia (/ is search, n is search again)
[06:25] <sebastia1> tuxar: because with kernel 2.6.15.23 my laptop was working correctly
[06:25] <sebastia1> now with 2.6.15.26 is not ... network lags, sound is broken :(
[06:25] <sebastia1> 
[06:25] <quintin> Any reason that a wifi adapter that is somewhat working would not work when run through a usb hub ?
[06:25] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: what am i looking for
[06:25] <door> wweasel: ok, do sudo aptitude install libusb-dev or whatever
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> not enough power quintin  perhaps.
[06:26] <wweasel> door: It's already installed.
[06:26] <door> wweasel: for serious? criminy
[06:26] <wweasel> door: I installed it yesterday
[06:26] <door> wweasel: i don't know what to say, then
[06:26] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: just a sec, let me look
[06:26] <secleinteer> does any1 know why i'm not getting any video by default when playing xvid avi's? i recently installed ubuntu
[06:26] <wweasel> door: Does my idea of compiling the source of the latest into a .deb make sense?
[06:26] <secleinteer> i just hear the sound
[06:26] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: sure, ty again
[06:27] <secleinteer> this happens in vlc and mplayer
[06:27] <door> wweasel: i don't think it would make a difference
[06:27] <wweasel> door: Alright. Well, thanks for the help.
[06:27] <JKoder> sorry of i repeat but i have huge network lags
[06:27] <BNOsaosin-tux> secleinteer: i had that problen, try running easy ubuntu (search google)
[06:27] <door> wweasel: try installing it just plain
[06:27] <JKoder> ... how to downgrade my kernel :((
[06:27] <secleinteer> what exactly am i missing?
[06:27] <ZeronenoreZ> my mouth theme 'whiteglass' always have a white line!
[06:27] <wweasel> door: Well, I can't have two versions of libusb installed at the same time...
[06:27] <door> wweasel: with ./configure; make; sudo make install (etc.)
[06:27] <secleinteer> i know how to install stuff, this isn't my first ubuntu install
[06:28] <BNOsaosin-tux> secleinteer: not sure, but i know that script solved my problem
[06:28] <door> wweasel: you might could, actually
[06:28] <secleinteer> k
[06:28] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: try xserver-xorg-driver-nvidia
[06:28] <door> no
[06:28] <wweasel> door: I could get away with it, but how would I instruct things to use the latest one (in /usr/local) instead of the old one in /usr
[06:28] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: i mean, nv
[06:28] <shinobi2> http://rafb.net/paste/results/qMO0aq33.html  i tried to compile but got this error
[06:28] <wweasel> door: and the uninstall the old one
[06:28] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: search NV?
[06:28] <door> so sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-driver-nv
[06:29] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: so sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-driver-nv
[06:29] <IcemanV9> secleinteer: probably some plugins that you need to install -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[06:29] <door> wweasel: uninstalling it will do bad bad things to ubuntu, even if you install a new one
[06:29] <chrono13> Does anyone have any advice for a good graphics card (preferably sub $100). I'm replacing a GeforceFX 5200. My mothers system doesn't seen to be up to spec to Wine "Dreamfall - Longest Journey 2". Has anyone ran it in Wine successfully, if so, what card were you using? If nothing else.. anyone have any suggestions for a lower end card that would be better than the FX 5200?
[06:29] <door> wweasel: i suggest posting on the forums
[06:29] <door> wweasel: before uninstalling it
[06:29] <wweasel> door: You think updating to the latest version will do bad things?
[06:30] <linux__alien> i ve a problem with Ubuntu. my Loopback interface does not start up at all but i am able to connect to the internet. i use pppoe to connect to the internet
[06:30] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: done, i think i already had it
[06:30] <wweasel> door: I am gonna try it, and if I have any instability I'll revert.
[06:30] <door> wweasel: the thing is, ubuntu won't consider it an update
[06:30] <linux__alien> could someone help me out?
[06:30] <linux__alien> Hi e-type
[06:30] <door> wweasel: all those other packages specifically depend on the one in the ubuntu repos
[06:30] <wweasel> door: That's why I'm thinking, if I can get the latest version in a .deb, ubuntu might consider it an update to the old one in the repos.
[06:30] <linux__alien> e-type, as you said i modified the interface file and removed the auto keyword before eth0 now my resolv.conf does not get updated since i had that problem on the other day
[06:30] <MystaMax> how do i create a shortcut to my windows box? I'm trying to cut out the process of going to Places and then connect to network server. Is this possible?
[06:31] <tomasz27> what can I use Vmware for?
[06:31] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: k...try the same for nvidia-kernel-common and nvidia-kernel-source
[06:31] <tomasz27> sorry, kinda new to Linux
[06:31] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: k
[06:31] <linux__alien> Now i dont see my loop back interface starting at all
[06:31] <ushooz> chrono13: 6600 NVidia series should fit the bill
[06:31] <shinobi2> anyone got kdevelop to work on ubuntu
[06:31] <K-tron> Dev05, here goes, with one, definitely good SATA drive connected and that's it for hard drives... You have no idea how much I want this to work heh
[06:31] <chrono13> Thanks ushooz : )
[06:32] <thiago__> How to play Age of empires 2. The wine were very low
[06:32] <door> wweasel: it's not a deb period that ubuntu's looking for...i *really* think you should post your question before doing that
[06:32] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: anything?
[06:32] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: its asking me to downgrade
[06:32] <BNOsaosin-tux> Door: should i
[06:32] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: you may need to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
[06:32] <BNOsaosin-tux> for -source
[06:32] <wweasel> door: Alright, thanks
[06:32] <Ampsonic> what is a "sock"
[06:32] <Dev05> K-tron, Wow SATA! Cool. I saw their connectors, they look better that the big IDE's :)
[06:32] <door> noaXess_kubuntu: adking you to downgrade what?
[06:32] <glick> how do i know if i have cardbus or pcmcia?
[06:33] <MystaMax> anyone?
[06:33] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: libc6
[06:33] <BNOsaosin-tux> and libc6-i686
[06:33] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: according to http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/plugins.html
[06:33] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: hmmmmmmmmm
[06:33] <door> try substituting apt-get for aptitude
[06:33] <IcemanV9> tomasz27: vmware is like you can install other OS on the top of host OS (in ur case, ubuntu)
[06:33] <secleinteer> ok thx
[06:33] <secleinteer> i'll try that
[06:33] <door> actually
[06:33] <Dev05> MystaMax, Just create a link to your drive, folder or file.
[06:33] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: try doing sudo apt-get update
[06:34] <Ampsonic> What is a sock?
[06:34] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: and then try substituting apt-get for aptitude in the install command
[06:34] <Dev05> MystaMax, Right-Click -> Make Link
[06:34] <K-tron> Dev05, yeah, I have a bunch of sata drives, the cables alone make them worth it, especially since sata drives commonly cost about the same as ide's
[06:34] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: or possibly try totem-xine or gxine
[06:34] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: ok its getting it now
[06:34] <Dev05> K-tron, Send me one!!!
[06:34] <door> so it's working fine?
[06:34] <MystaMax> Dev05, I receive an error that says, "Error, Unsupported operation" while creating a link to "smb://windowsbox/media"
[06:34] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: so it's not asking you to downgrade?
[06:34] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: looks like evrything is up to date
[06:35] <secleinteer> gxine?
[06:35] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: no not now
[06:35] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: sweet...go ahead and go "sudo apt-get upgrade," though
[06:35] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: that will update the rest of your system
[06:35] <thiago__> How to play Age of empires 2 ?? wine is very slow
[06:35] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: let me know when you're done, i guess...
[06:35] <BNOsaosin-tux> done
[06:35] <door> oh, sweet. ok
[06:35] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: it was listed on the RestrictedFormats page
[06:35] <K-tron> Dev05, gah, it looks like it's hanging still in the same place

[06:36] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok, now back up your xorg.conf file (sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[06:36] <secleinteer> i'm on kde
[06:36] <door> )
[06:36] <Exdaix> Does anyone have an easy How-To for XGL/Compiz on the latest Ubuntu?
[06:36] <linux__alien> i ve a weird problem with ubuntu i dont see my Loop back interface starting at all. I am using pppoe to connect to the internet and i had a problem on the other day where in my resolv.conf was getting automatically updated after i get connected to the internet with some nameserver IP so i removed the auto keyword before the eth0 entry in the interface file '
[06:36] <secleinteer> and that gstreamer plugin didn't helppp
[06:36] <Dev05> MystaMax, Try in your desktop: Right-Click -> Create Launcher... In the Command field in the dialog that appeared type: nautilus "smb://windowsbox/media"
[06:36] <linux__alien> could some one help me please?
[06:36] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: and then do sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:36] <linux__alien> should i remove the auto keyword before the lo interface also in the interface file?
[06:36] <Dev05> MystaMac, Hold on, KDE or GNOME???
[06:36] <Dev05> MystaMax...
[06:37] <MystaMax> Dev05, Gnome, sorry
[06:37] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: awiting orders :)
[06:37] <Dev05> MystaMax, so yeah, that's what you have to do.
[06:37] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: for kubuntu: "In addition to the default Kaffeine player, you could try KMplayer and Codeine"
[06:37] <MystaMax> Dev05, ok, i'll try it now
[06:37] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: lol. heirarchies are evil--i don't give orders (on purpose)
[06:38] <glick> lemme put it this way, whats a good G wireless card that supports WPA in ubuntu?
[06:38] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: your orders > my blind ambition
[06:38] <BNOsaosin-tux> :)
[06:38] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: so now go to the section for your old card (i warn you, i'm kind of making this as i go along)
[06:38] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: lol
[06:38] <secleinteer> k
[06:38] <K-tron> So yeah, the installer still hangs for me at this point.... Oh wait! if all I have are sata drives, do I need to pass a kernel parameter when the livecd loads, like 'doscsi' or something?
[06:38] <secleinteer> i'll try kaffeine right now
[06:38] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: ok cool
[06:38] <Fracture>  woohoo.. nvidia 1.0-8774 seems to fix the crashing problem in my X server :()
[06:39] <secleinteer> nope
[06:39] <secleinteer> no luck with kaffeine
[06:39] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: and put a number sign (#...this makes the line into a comment) before every line in that section starting with "Section Device" and ending with "EndSection"

[06:39] <secleinteer> will this let me play the stuff in vlc/mplayer?
[06:40] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: done
[06:40] <Dev05> !tell K-tron about sata
[06:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sata - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:40] <wweasel> door: If you're still around, I have a question.
[06:40] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: k, now add this line underneath: Section "Device"
[06:40] <door> wweasel: shoot
[06:40] <wweasel> door: At this point libusb0.1.10 and libusb0.1.12 are co-existing.

[06:41] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: and substituting your card
[06:41] <secleinteer> i've already got that libxine thing btw
[06:41] <wweasel> door: How do I tell libmtp, the application that depends on 12, to use the one in /usr/local?
[06:41] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: and keeping the spacing the same as in the rest of the file
[06:41] <MystaMax> Dev05, I get an error stating, "The folder contents could not be displayed. Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "media"."
[06:41] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: libxine-extracodecs was listed in RestrictedFormats with Kaffeine, codeine and mplayer
[06:42] <door> wweasel: hmmmm...i'm not sure. try ./configure --help
[06:42] <fishy> How do I kill a program running in WINE?
[06:42] <Dev05> MystaMax, Can you ping your Windows box?
[06:43] <Dev05> fishy, just like you kill any other app.
[06:43] <fishy> Dev05: What process is it?
[06:43] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: the next line should be spaced exactly the same and say
[06:43] <secleinteer> yeah, well that wasn't the problem
[06:43] <jamesstansell> fishy: if nothing else you can kill the wine processes
[06:43] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: Driver "nv"
[06:43] <Dev05> fishy, in a console type: ps aux
[06:43] <Dev05> fishy, then find it :)
[06:43] <secleinteer> btw, i install ubuntu on another computer, and everything works just fine
[06:43] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: done both
[06:43] <secleinteer> maybe it's because kubuntu's missing something?
[06:43] <azureal> fishy, combine ps aux with grep
[06:44] <MystaMax> Dev05, checkin...
[06:44] <JKoder> please help me with my kernel !!!! i need to downgrade because my PC is not fully functional
[06:44] <JKoder> network lags and sound to :(
[06:44] <NickGarvey> JKoder: what do you mean?
[06:44] <jamesstansell> secleinteer: maybe - have you tried in #kubuntu or the kubuntu forums?
[06:44] <JKoder> after boot i need 10 minutes for network to be functional
[06:44] <K-tron> Dev05, I'll check... I do know that if I try to mount the drive (/dev/sda) it says the drive is busy, and it is not already mounted, if that is telling...
[06:44] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: cool...i'm not sure what to put for BusID...
[06:45] <MystaMax> Dev05, yes i can ping via IP, but not hostname.
[06:45] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: what did it say on that line for your old one?
[06:45] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: how do i find out haha>
[06:45] <K-tron> link Ktron
[06:45] <BNOsaosin-tux> pci:0:5:0
[06:45] <linux__alien> could some one here be kind enough to help me out please?
[06:45] <fishy> Dev05: There's nothing in there related to WINE at all. I killed "wineserver" and "wine-preloader," to no effect.
[06:45] <jamesstansell> interesting - I never heard of http://kubuntuforums.net/ before
[06:45] <secleinteer> k i'll try that
[06:45] <azureal> !ask > linux__alien
[06:45] <Dev05> MystaMax, I don't know how it works for Samba, but I guess it should resolve the windowsbox name...
[06:46] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...just for the heck of it let's try what it says in mine:  "PCI:1:0:0"
[06:46] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: then insert a line that just says EndSection
[06:46] <MystaMax> ok, Dev05 thanks for the help.
[06:46] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: done
[06:46] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: then reboot and see what happens
[06:47] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: cross your fingers! good luck1
[06:47] <door> !
[06:47] <Dev05> MystaMax, But I couldn't help :(
[06:47] <BNOsaosin-tux> ok....ill be back hopefully in xchat
[06:47] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: coolbeans!
[06:47] <MystaMax> Dev05, you pointed me in the right direction, I'll start searching the net for a solution :)
[06:47] <jamesstansell> fishy: did wineserver exit, or is it possibly still running?
[06:47] <linux__alien> azureal, I am using pppoeconf to connect to the internet . i get connected to the internet but after some minutes my resolv.conf gets updated automatically so hence to prevent that i modified the interface file. I removed the auto keyword before the eth0 interface and then it was working fine but my Local loop back interface didnt come up now i dont know what to do . I ve reverted back all my changes in the interface file. could you help me to solve
[06:47] <linux__alien>  this please?
[06:47] <Dev05> MystaMax, I hope I did :)
[06:47] <fishy> jamesstansell: It says "defunct" next to it
[06:47] <Dev05> MystaMax, Oh, idea!
[06:48] <MystaMax> Dev05, ok
[06:48] <Ayano> Okay, I have a linksys ap with 64 bit hex encryption, and a linksys pcmcia card...  how do I get it to see my ap?
[06:48] <Dev05> fishy, the path in ps -aux should look like /home/<your user name here>/.wine/whatever Kill that one
[06:48] <linux__alien> azureal, i ve an entry in the dsl-provider file called usepeerDNS. Now i ve commented that out. So will this solve the problem?
[06:48] <jamesstansell> fishy: that means that parent process hasn't fetched the exit status yet
[06:49] <Dev05> MystaMax, I think you have to create and Alias, say IP 1.1.1.1 maps to name "whatever". I hope that would do it.
[06:49] <jamesstansell> fishy: what process goes with the ppid for wineserver?
[06:49] <Dev05> MystaMax, Now's there's a problem. I don't know how to do that on Ubuntu, so please, let me check.
[06:50] <fishy> jamesstansell: 5211
[06:50] <K-tron> Dev05-- if you mean goes the drive show up in 'Computer - File Browser' in Gnome, it does, however it can't be mounted
[06:50] <azureal> linux__alien, I'm not familiar with this problem...hopefully someone else on the channel can help you
[06:50] <linux__alien> azureal, you there?
[06:50] <linux__alien> azureal, No one here is helping me out :-(
[06:50] <Dev05> K-tron, And the reason is because is "busy"?
[06:50] <fishy> What's 5211?
[06:50] <jamesstansell> fishy: ps -p 5211
[06:51] <wick2o> hello, anyone still up? I'm tring to find a way to use proftpd to convert all uploaded files to a specific username and group
[06:51] <wick2o> has anyone acomplished this?
[06:51] <MystaMax> Dev05, i think its in the hosts file
[06:51] <ant> door: im in CLI heaven :(
[06:51] <Dev05> MystaMax, Yeah, do this:
[06:51] <door> ant: oh dear. what did you do?
[06:51] <fishy> jamesstansell: 5211 ?        00:01:38 wine-preloader <defunct>
[06:52] <ant> door: me = BNO btw
[06:52] <K-tron> Dev05-- sorry, that's what happens if I try 'sudo mount /dev/sda dirname'... I forgot I should be trying 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 dirname', and that worked
[06:52] <door> ant: oh!
[06:52] <ant> door: dont think that PCI setting was correct
[06:52] <JKoder> and soud is like uuubbbuuunnnttttuuuu
[06:52] <JKoder> with ubuntu 6.06 ( kernel 2.6.15.23 ) everithing was ok
[06:52] <JKoder> but with ubuntu 6.06.1 (kernel 2.6.15.26 ) no :(
[06:52] <jamesstansell> fishy: ok what's parent of 5211?
[06:52] <Dev05> K-tron, Oh.
[06:52] <JKoder> 
[06:52] <door> ant: crap. did you get an error message?
[06:52] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: yeah, it said xserver was not set up correctly
[06:52] <fishy> jamesstansell: I have no Idea.
[06:52] <fishy> *idea
[06:53] <K-tron> Dev05-- so it looks like it detects the hard drive correctly... Any other ideas/things for me to try to try to track down why it hangs?
[06:53] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: ooo...error is "Undefined device"
[06:53] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: it still has old info in there
[06:53] <Dev05> K-tron, Now that you mounted it, try again.
[06:53] <|thunder> how do I determine what version my nvidia drives are? it seems 1.0-8774 has been released
[06:53] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: under default screen
[06:53] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-core
[06:53] <jamesstansell> fishy: do you have a process like "/home/<your user name here>/.wine/"
[06:53] <JKoder> please help .. i can hardly use my network :(
[06:53] <K-tron> Dev05 right now it's mount as /media/temphd , is that fine or did you have a particular place in mind?
[06:53] <fishy> jamesstansell: No.
[06:54] <DanaG> I'm wondering: is there an easy way to get dhclient3 to update my /etc/hosts automatically?
[06:54] <azureal> linux__alien, this is an interesting article; not sure if it helps... https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/pppoeconf/+bug/7911
[06:54] <jamesstansell> fishy: does pstree show the wine processes and their parent?
[06:54] <Dev05> MystaMax, Ok, add a Network Monitor Applet to your Panel and click its icon. In the dialog that appears change the "Name" to the interface where you have your Samba connection. Then click "Configure". Tell me when done.
[06:55] <ciscosurfer> | thunder: sudo dpkg -s nvidia-glx    OR    sudo dpkg -s nvidia-glx-legacy
[06:55] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: ok...just back to terminal
[06:55] <fishy> jamesstansell: No.
[06:55] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: is gdm installed?
[06:55] <Dev05> K-tron, there should be a file called like: /dev/sda/ If it is there, you can proceed with the installation and tell the Partitioner to install in there.
[06:55] <GTroy> hi guys, anyone know about filesystems?  like hfs+ ?
[06:55] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: it was running on the ATI card
[06:55] <Ayano> Can someone give me any guidance?
[06:55] <azureal> linux__alien, bleh, nvm... outdated ...forgot to check  year of post
[06:55] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: what was? gdm?
[06:55] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: gdm = that gnome login screen correct?
[06:56] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: yup!
[06:56] <fishy> yes
[06:56] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: yeah, it worked fine before
[06:56] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...so now you've reconfigured the xserver-core
[06:56] <K-tron> Dev05-- there are files /dev/sda, /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, /dev/sda5 all in that directory... I'll try again
[06:56] <K-tron> :)
[06:56] <door> type sudo gdm and see what happens
[06:56] <ciscosurfer> |thunder: sudo dpkg -s nvidia-glx    OR    sudo dpkg -s nvidia-glx-legacy
[06:56] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: type sudo gdm and see what happens
[06:57] <Dev05> K-tron, Oh, how many partitions you've got there. Ok, it's good.
[06:57] <|thunder> thanks ciscosurfer
[06:57] <Dev05> K-tron, just go in the installer.
[06:57] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: "gdm already running"  wtf!?
[06:57] <ciscosurfer> |thunder: anytime ;-)
[06:57] <Explicit> Saosin rocks.
[06:57] <band-aid> how can I change my screen resolution to 1280X1024 from 640x480. The drop down menu dosn't work. I have the proper resolutions in Xorg.conf.
[06:57] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: sudo killall gdm
[06:57] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: sudo gdm
[06:58] <K-tron> I figured I'd let ubuntu autopartition/format that drive anyway, unless you think that's a bad idea given these circumstances
[06:58] <BNOsaosin-tux> done
[06:58] <Dev05> MystaMax, Ready?
[06:58] <BNOsaosin-tux> nothing happened
[06:58] <Ayano> can anyone help me get my wireless working?
[06:58] <MystaMax> Dev05, OK done
[06:58] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: no errors or antyhing?
[06:58] <Deaigo> i need a really small httpd
[06:58] <door> just still in the CLI?
[06:58] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: oh....it popped up the error
[06:58] <Deaigo> sever 1 index.html file
[06:58] <Deaigo> serve*
[06:58] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: hmmmmmm
[06:58] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: yep cli
[06:58] <K-tron> Deaigo, lighttpd?
[06:58] <BNOsaosin-tux> this is wierd
[06:58] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: ok...do you have a separate /home partition?
[06:58] <Deaigo> K-tron thats too much for what i want
[06:58] <Dev05> MystaMax, ok, so in the "Network settings" dialog that just appeared, click on the "Hosts" Tab.
[06:59] <|thunder> read about the new linux nVidia driver here. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=535&num=1. has more hardware composition support for xorg 7.1.
[06:59] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: nope just / and swap
[06:59] <Dev05> MystaMax, Then click "Add".
[06:59] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: hmmmm...i won't suggest you reinstall then. if you ever do have to reinstall, though, be sure to make a separate partition for /home
[06:59] <MystaMax> Dev05, Ok. I already added the hostname and IP of the windows box
[06:59] <ciscosurfer> |thunder: I'll take a look
[06:59] <Dev05> MystaMax, That was fast,
[06:59] <MystaMax> Dev05, but I did it from the CLI
[06:59] <JKoder> can anyone PM me for kernel help please !!! i cannot post here because i have HUGE lags and i cannot trak messages !!!!
[06:59] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: i'm sorry...i really don't know what else to tell you
[06:59] <K-tron> Dev05-- just started trying again, letting it erase and autopartition/etc /dev/sda
[06:59] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: haha thats ok....thanks for al your help
[07:00] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: have you posted on the forums?
[07:00] <BNOsaosin-tux> door: not yet
[07:00] <MystaMax> Dev05, do I need to restart the interface?
[07:00] <BNOsaosin-tux> i will now
[07:00] <Dev05> MystaMax, So try again with the Launcher you have previously created.
[07:00] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: good luck
[07:00] <nich0s> My name is nich0s and I know very little :P
[07:00] <BNOsaosin-tux> ty
[07:00] <door> BNOsaosin-tux: sorry i couldn't help more
[07:00] <BNOsaosin-tux> oor: haha np
[07:00] <Dev05> K-tron, OK.
[07:00] <MystaMax> Dev05, same error, I'm wondering if  I need to restart or something?
[07:01] <DanaG> dang, ...
[07:01] <Ayano> Anyone willing to help me?
[07:01] <DanaG> How can I get dhclient3 to update my /etc/hosts automatically?
[07:01] <Dev05> MystaMax, OK, so Disable the Interface and Re-Enable it again.
[07:01] <door> Ayano: with what?
[07:01] <Ayano> wireless
[07:01] <Linuturk> is there a specific channel dedicated to Tablet PC users on Ubunut?
[07:02] <MystaMax> Dev05, Ok, I'll lose ya, so BRb
[07:02] <MystaMax> BRB
[07:02] <door> Ayano: do you use ndiswrapper, and what's the problem?
[07:02] <Dev05> MystaMax, OK.
[07:02] <Linuturk> if there isn't a channel dedicated to Tablet PC users running ubuntu, who would I talk to about starting it?
[07:02] <Ayano> door: no on ndiswrapper, and I can't get my card to see the ap
[07:03] <door> Ayano: what ap?
[07:03] <ciscosurfer> door: access point
[07:03] <Ayano> it just says accesspoint invalid all of the time...  My linksys access point
[07:03] <door> ciscosurfer: eh?
[07:03] <jamesstansell> DanaG: are you wanting it to update your local IP address in /etc/hosts?
[07:03] <door> Ayano: sorry...i don't know what to tell you. good luck finding an answer
[07:03] <DanaG> Yeah.
[07:04] <MystaMax_> Dev05,
[07:04] <MystaMax_> Dev05, MUHAHAHAHAHAA it worked!
[07:04] <Dev05> MystaMax_, Cool! Nice.
[07:04] <DanaG> Is there a way to make the system keep a list of currently-active hosts (with names) on the network?
[07:04] <ciscosurfer> door: you said "what ap" so I answered for Ayano...perhaps you meant "what type of ap?"  or "which ap manufacturer"
[07:05] <MystaMax_> Dev05, so now we both know how to do it, cool beans.
[07:05] <DanaG> All the other systems are Windows File Sharing-enabled, so I could pull names from incoming requests -- except for the router.
[07:05] <door> ciscosurfer: aha. i didn't know ap was an abbreviation, which perhaps should tell you i'm not the right person to answer after all :-)
[07:05] <jamesstansell> DanaG: I'm not seeing dhclient in apt-cache. you are running dapper, right?
[07:05] <Dev05> MystaMax_, Yeah, although I've always wondered how to set Samba up :)
[07:05] <DanaG> Yeah.
[07:05] <DanaG> Look for dhcp3
[07:05] <ciscosurfer> door: lol
[07:06] <technician> hi where to find complete ubuntu theme 'all in one' with all wallpaper icons window border everything in one
[07:06] <Dev05> K-tron, How is the installation going?
[07:06] <door> technician: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-artwork
[07:06] <ciscosurfer> door: you know about ndiswrapper but not ap?  shame shame
[07:06] <nich0s> NOt everyone loves wireless :P
[07:06] <technician> door is there other themes except for these ?
[07:06] <ciscosurfer> door: i'm just joking with ya
[07:07] <door> ciscosurfer: hey now, be nice...it's not my fault i don't have a magic one
[07:07] <ZeronenoreZ> now my system upgrated to Linux-686 but how can i delete the Linux-386 from gurb?
[07:07] <jamesstansell> DanaG: dhcp3-server? or dhcp3-client?
[07:07] <door> technician:  you might try gnome-look.org
[07:07] <Madpilot> technician, there are a bunch of themes available by default, and more are easy to install
[07:07] <nich0s> modify the boot file :P
[07:07] <K-tron> Dev05-- stuck again
[07:07] <urmom>  for the ibm java for ppc, would i use the j2se 5.0, or the 1.4.2?
[07:07] <ZeronenoreZ> how to change my list in gurb?
[07:08] <jamesstansell> !resolvconf
[07:08] <ubotu> resolvconf: nameserver information handler. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.34ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 50 kB, installed size 280 kB
[07:08] <urmom> jw what do you guys like about ubuntu over fedora?
[07:08] <MystaMax_> Dev05, I'm out for the night, thanks for the help! see ya guys!
[07:08] <urmom> trying to decide which to use :P
[07:08] <technician> Madpilot, there are but i dont understand seperately i want something that can be directly install one shot
[07:08] <ciscosurfer> urmom: everything!
[07:08] <K-tron> This is ridiculous
[07:08] <technician> i dont want to install this and that one by one
[07:08] <door> ZeronenoreZ: you need to edit it, as root, with a text editor. but first BACK IT UP
[07:08] <Dev05> MystaMax_, No problem.
[07:08] <urmom> personally i prefer fedora except for yum
[07:08] <nich0s> ZeronenoreZ, back it up!!! :P
[07:09] <DanaG> I'm a client.  My router is the server.
[07:09] <technician> Madpilot, do you know any vista or xp theme on ubuntu blue glowing color ?
[07:09] <ciscosurfer> urmom: ok
[07:09] <Dev05> K-tron, Can you access your drive trough Nautilus?
[07:09] <Madpilot> technician, Gnome themes are often installed in parts, though. It's easy to assemble your own themes, though
[07:09] <ZeronenoreZ> door, which text?
[07:09] <K-tron> heh... I'm gving up for the night, thanks Dev05, but I don't think I'm getting ubuntu working tonight, and I kind of doubt if I'll be able to do it in the next 2 weeks even heh
[07:09] <urmom> but why do u guys like ubuntu?
[07:09] <door> urmom: the community and apt-get
[07:09] <jamesstansell> DanaG: resolvconf is for tracking name servers - I don't think it updates /etc/hosts
[07:09] <Madpilot> technician, I'm sure there are XP-like themes, that seems like a horrible thing to do to a Linux machine, though ;)
[07:09] <K-tron> Dev05-- hm, I'll try
[07:09] <urmom> oh ok
[07:09] <ciscosurfer> urmom: *bump* door
[07:09] <door> ZeronenoreZ: a text *editor* such as gedit, nano, emacs, vim, etc.
[07:10] <technician> Madpilot, ok leave xp i know i dont want them and i agree gnome themes are better
[07:10] <ciscosurfer> door: well, urmom was friendly
[07:10] <technician> Madpilot, what are the different part of the theme that i need to install if i do seperately ?
[07:10] <ZeronenoreZ> door ,edit what?(i'm fresh man) :(
[07:10] <DanaG> I wonder why there are both dhcp3-client and dhcpd
[07:10] <door> ciscosurfer: lol
[07:10] <nich0s> ciscosurfer, Technically, he didn't say anything bad :P
[07:10] <|thunder> ZeronenoreZ, /boot/grub/menu.list
[07:10] <ZeronenoreZ> door ,thux
[07:10] <ciscosurfer> nich0s: technically, you're right
[07:10] <ZeronenoreZ> i'll rey
[07:11] <door> ZeronenoreZ: aha. /boot/grub/menu.lst. and careful--not everybody's a man around these here parts
[07:11] <door> ZeronenoreZ: :-)
[07:11] <door> ZeronenoreZ: what're you trying to do?
[07:11] <Madpilot> technician, check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy - it should answer your questions about themes
[07:11] <ZeronenoreZ> door, edit it
[07:11] <K-tron> Dev05, where would I see it listed, under places?
[07:11] <jamesstansell> DanaG: I don't suppose you could assign static IP addresses in your router?
[07:11] <door> ZeronenoreZ: i got that...what is your goal? what are you trying to achieve by editing it?
[07:11] <technician> Madpilot, thanks
[07:12] <ZeronenoreZ> door, delete the Linux-386
[07:12] <Dev05> K-tron, Navigate to computer:///
[07:12] <door> ZeronenoreZ: so you want to uninstall ubuntu
[07:12] <door> ?
[07:12] <ciscosurfer> door: and there goes nich0s...they're dropping like flies
[07:12] <linux__alien> is Ubuntu used as a Development Platform by Debian Developers ?
[07:12] <ZeronenoreZ> door, no! i love ubuntu very much
[07:12] <dasGewitte1> When burning DVD's, when trying to playback, it says it is encrypted. Answers?
[07:12] <Dev05> K-tron, Otherwise, check the place where you mounted it.
[07:13] <door> ciscosurfer: i missed nich0s
[07:13] <linux__alien> i heard that Debian Developers use Ubuntu as the Development Platform
[07:13] <linux__alien> is that true
[07:13] <door> linux__alien: no, it's its own os
[07:13] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: I would suggest commenting out the kernel line instead of completely deleting the line, that way you can revert quickly if you need to
[07:13] <linux__alien> door, no my question is Ubuntu used as a Development platform?
[07:13] <K-tron> Dev05, okay, I did, I see my 2 optical drives, 'Windows' (the hard drive I want to erase/repartition/install ubuntu on) and 'Filesystem'
[07:14] <door> ZeronenoreZ: ZeronenoreZ what "Linux-386" are you trying to delete?
[07:14] <corndog_> I recently installed kde through aptitude and then removed it... however it replaced my boot splash screen to kubuntu. How can I change it back to the default?
[07:14] <jamesstansell> linux__alien: it's possible
[07:14] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: use the pound sign to comment out lines (#) without the parentheses...you can just comment out the 'title' line and that will make it "disappear" from your GRUB bootup menu
[07:14] <Dev05> K-tron, OK, open the installer up and tell me when you get to the part that says "Partitions".
[07:14] <ZeronenoreZ> door, i mean i already have Ubuntu-686
[07:15] <wolfmanz> whats the default folder for the deaktop wallpapers?
[07:15] <dasGewitte1> Anyone?
[07:15] <DanaG> I just had a thought: perhaps it would be better to NOT have that thing update.
[07:15] <Shadowpillar> when trying to compile this one program, I get this:
[07:15] <Shadowpillar> /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../../lib/crt1.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against `__libc_csu_fini' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
[07:15] <DanaG> If I hard code it for my subnet, then it won't even TRY to work on any other networks.
[07:15] <|thunder> wolfmanz,/usr/share/pixmaps or something i think
[07:15] <ZeronenoreZ> ciscosurfer,that's a good idea :)
[07:15] <Shadowpillar> is this an error with GCC?
[07:15] <Shadowpillar> or the app? or LD?
[07:15] <DanaG> That way it won't cause trouble on other networks.
[07:15] <NickGarvey> Shadowline: no.. thats your make file I think
[07:15] <DrAk0> which program i can use to burn a iso image onto a cd?
[07:16] <door> ZeronenoreZ: aha! hmmm...the best thing probably would've been to install over it...but just like ciscosurfer said, use # to commment out the lines you don't want. ok, let's start from the top
[07:16] <NickGarvey> Shadowline: 64 bit has that problem sometimes (I hit it a lot)
[07:16] <door> ZeronenoreZ: are you using gnome?
[07:16] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: I usually comment out the lines instead of completely deleting so I can revert quickly
[07:16] <bhrobinson> hi, can anyone help me with my grub? I have 2 drives. the pri master is my Ubuntu, and the pri slave is winxp. What would I need in my grub.conf?
[07:16] <K-tron> Dev05, I'm at 'Prepare disk space' where I decide how to partition.... options are Resize, Erase, and Manually edit partition table
[07:16] <ZeronenoreZ> door, of course
[07:17] <ZeronenoreZ> ciscosurfer, ur great
[07:17] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: so, how do I fix it?
[07:17] <door> ZeronenoreZ: so you were able to edit it?
[07:17] <NickGarvey> Shadowline: good question.. hmm, what are you compiling?
[07:17] <Dev05> K-tron, OK, tell it that you want to "Manually modify the Partition Table" (or something alike). It must be the last option in the list.
[07:17] <ZeronenoreZ> door, trying .....
[07:18] <door> ZeronenoreZ: kk...if you have any problems, feel free to ask!
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: nspluginwrapper
[07:18] <jamesstansell> DanaG: there are several ranges of addresses that are non-routable, so those are typically used for private LANs
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> unless you know where I can get some debs for dapper
[07:18] <K-tron> Dev05-- alright... I'm looking at the partitions on /dev/sda now
[07:18] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: you're a palindrome!
[07:18] <ZeronenoreZ> door, u ubuntu are all great
[07:18] <NickGarvey> Shadowpillar: I don't.. and I have never heard of that
[07:18] <|thunder> bhrobinson, add these 5 lines to the bottom of the /boot/grub/menu.list
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: it allows you to use 32 bit firefix plugins
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> er
[07:18] <Dev05> K-tron, There's NOTHING that you want to keep in there?
[07:18] <|thunder> bhrobinson, title           Microsoft Windows XP Professional
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> firefox*
[07:19] <|thunder> bhrobinson, root            (hd1,0)
[07:19] <|thunder> bhrobinson, savedefault
[07:19] <|thunder> bhrobinson, makeactive
[07:19] <NickGarvey> Shadowpillar: oh I see.. theres an easier way to do that I believe
[07:19] <K-tron> Dev05-- for all intents and purposes NOTHING-- I can completely okay with erasing this entire disk
[07:19] <ZeronenoreZ> ciscosurfer, what does a 'palindrome' mean?
[07:19] <|thunder> bhrobinson, chainloader  +1
[07:19] <K-tron> *I am completely
[07:19] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: no, I'm not making my firefox 32 bit
[07:19] <Shadowpillar> that way is actually harder
[07:20] <NickGarvey> I don't think so..
[07:20] <DrAk0> which program i can use to burn a iso image onto a cd?
[07:20] <Dev05> K-tron, So then, delete all the partitions. Do NOT yet get to the next page.
[07:20] <NickGarvey> Shadowline: I had 2 version of firefox, one 64 on 32, I'm not sure how to do what you are doing
[07:20] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: that's what you're name is: http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Apalindrome&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
[07:20] <door> DrAk0: gnomebaker is good
[07:20] <bhrobinson> thunder, thanks... I will try it shortly
[07:20] <Jediborger> Can someone help me with ltsp booting?
[07:20] <door> DrAk0: though you need to be root
[07:20] <qazqaz70> hi
[07:20] <|thunder> bhrobinson, there has to be tabs between the option and the variable. not spaces. put 1 tab between the chainloader and the +1 then make the rest line up with it with tabs.
[07:21] <BNOsaosin> hola door et all
[07:21] <qazqaz70> i want help
[07:21] <door> DrAk0: and in my experience you need to start it in a terminal, with sudo, instead of with gksudo
[07:21] <door> BNOsaosin: lol. welcome back. i'm never going to get to bed
[07:21] <door> BNOsaosin: jk
[07:21] <qazqaz70> how can i know whats root password
[07:21] <qazqaz70> ??
[07:21] <BNOsaosin> door: it seems as though i am in a GUI environment :)
[07:21] <door> qazqaz70: normally you use sudo
[07:21] <K-tron> Dev05-- okay, now just have a nice give block that's unallocated-- should I 'Deactivate' it too? not quite sure what that means in this context, but either way, I deleted the partitions
[07:21] <door> BNOsaosin: yay! you did it!
[07:21] <BNOsaosin> haha yes
[07:21] <ciscosurfer> DRAk0: goto Places > CD/DVD creator
[07:22] <dasGewitte1> any one, about dvd's?
[07:22] <ZeronenoreZ> ciscosurfer, i have so many thing need to study.just because i'm a chinese
[07:22] <BNOsaosin> now to enable 3d acceleration on the crad haha....but im sure i ca figure that out
[07:22] <BNOsaosin> card*
[07:22] <qazqaz70> when i did in terminal .. su
[07:22] <door> quintin: so you'd do "sudo somecommand", then type *your* password
[07:22] <Dev05> K-tron, Now you have a bar that says "Unallocated" which is great. How big is your HD?
[07:22] <door> BNOsaosin: sweet!
[07:22] <Jediborger> don't use su
[07:22] <jamesstansell> qazqaz70: you can only know by keeping track what you changed it to
[07:22] <K-tron> 160gb I thought, but it has 149.05 GB listed as 'unallocated'
[07:22] <qazqaz70> and put pass give me it this
[07:22] <ZeronenoreZ> ciscosurfer, how i wish i could use english as free as u now!!!
[07:22] <qazqaz70> su: Authentication failure
[07:22] <qazqaz70> Sorry.
[07:22] <Jediborger> just type sudo in front of the command you need root privileges for
[07:22] <DrAk0> ciscosurfer, in that way you drop files, i need to burn the iso unpacked
[07:22] <bhrobinson> thunder, any way to test without rebooting?
[07:22] <door> qazqaz70: you can set the root password with sudo passwd root
[07:23] <Jediborger> su doesn't work
[07:23] <DanaG> OOkay, I found something I can do.
[07:23] <ciscosurfer> ZeronenoreZ: you're name is the same forwards and it is backwards
[07:23] <jamesstansell> qazqaz70: if you use sudo you won't need to have a root passwd
[07:23] <DanaG> Hard-code 192.168.0.0/26
[07:23] <door> qazqaz70: but it's better to use sudo
[07:23] <ciscosurfer> DrAk0: burn it as an image
[07:23] <DanaG> But it doesn't get hostnames.
[07:23] <DanaG> Dang.
[07:23] <ciscosurfer> DrAk0: always works for my ISOs
[07:23] <Dev05> K-tron, Probably your BIOS doesn't support disks bigger that 149.05... Is EVERYTHING gone? Nothing?
[07:23] <qazqaz70> the same
[07:23] <Jediborger> When I boot my ltsp client I just get a white screen and a flashing underscore, is this right?
[07:23] <sgcplayer> I want to copy my home dir to another directory to back it up (compression not necessary, there are other files and dir's on the partition, its formatted vfat)
[07:23] <door> qazqaz70: eh?
[07:24] <qazqaz70> when i put su
[07:24] <sgcplayer> oops, copy it to another partition
[07:24] <jamesstansell> DanaG: does your router provide a name service?
[07:24] <|thunder> bhrobinson, no. but if thigns get fucked you can boot into linux withhout the menu.list by entering the linux boot commands above in menu.list. but if all you did was add to the bottom then all is well.
[07:24] <qazqaz70> and put root is pass
[07:24] <jamesstansell> DanaG: the other possibility is avahi
[07:24] <door> qazqaz70: ok, slow down and start over. what is the problem?
[07:24] <ciscosurfer> |thunder: this is a family channel ;-)
[07:24] <K-tron> Dev05-- there is a single line listed, and that is "unallocated,unallocated,149.05 GB, ---, ---, "
[07:24] <bhrobinson> ok, trying now then
[07:24] <jamesstansell> !avahi
[07:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:24] <door> qazqaz70: to do something as root, use sudo
[07:24] <K-tron> Dev05, so there is nothing as far as I can tell :)
[07:24] <qazqaz70> i want make new folder in var folder
[07:25] <IcemanV9> !sudo > qazqaz70
[07:25] <door> qazqaz70: right. so sudo
[07:25] <Jediborger> Can someone help me with ltsp?
[07:25] <Lathiat> http://www.avahi.org
[07:25] <door> qazqaz70: qazqaz70: sudo mkdir foldername
[07:25] <Dev05> K-tron, How much do you want for your "Home" (under Windows, that's your "My Documents" folder, in Linux it is put in another partition)?
[07:25] <bhrobinson> you know, I find it fascinating that my system has been up for 3 days, 13 hours... and still solid... I used to be a minimum of 5 reboots a day on XP
[07:25] <DanaG> Avahi?
[07:26] <DanaG> I have a fixed range of hosts (192.168.0.1-50) and I want something to keep up a list of what's active, with names)
[07:26] <K-tron> Dev05, I'll say 40gb for now... shouldn't the first partition on the disk be the boot one though, or am I crazy?
[07:27] <Dev05> K-tron, Yeah, but I need to calculate the space :) How much for the Swap (like physical RAM)?
[07:27] <K-tron> Dev05, well, as far as I remember, you're supposed to have twice your memory in swap, and I have 2gb of memory, so maybe 4gb of swap?
[07:27] <jamesstansell> DanaG: avahi / zeroconf do something like that for .local subnet
[07:28] <Dev05> K-tron, I'd say for that 512MB is good enough.
[07:28] <Jediborger> Can someone help me with ltsp? please
[07:28] <K-tron> Dev05 fine, 512mb works for me
[07:28] <|thunder> i use 1x swap
[07:28] <DrAk0> thanks

[07:30] <Killeroid> *illegal
[07:30] <Deaigo> httpd*
[07:30] <K-tron> Dev05-- filesystem? xfs? reiserfs?... jfs?
[07:30] <Killeroid> goodnight guys
[07:30] <|thunder> you could find a way to boot them off the network, or provide a funny ssid in adhoc mode
[07:30] <gb453> can anyone help me get wpa_supplicant running? debug here -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21687
[07:30] <Jediborger> I have the server stuff installed as in the wiki but nothing seems to happen on the client
[07:31] <Dev05> K-tron, Ext2
[07:31] <NickGarvey> Dev05: 2?
[07:31] <Dev05> K-tron, Ext3
[07:31] <NickGarvey> Dev05: :)
[07:31] <Dev05> Sorry@
[07:31] <Dev05> !
[07:31] <K-tron> Dev05, Ext3 works for me:)
[07:31] <bhrobinson> ok, I got an error on reboot..
[07:31] <devil> can anyone help me with a problem with the Ubuntu boot loader????
[07:31] <K-tron> Dev05-- k
[07:31] <goatslayer> killeroid: is that illegal? no harm intended, just want to play around with my class mates
[07:31] <NickGarvey> gb453: can you do "iwlist scan" ?
[07:31] <Dev05> K-tron, for Home, which has to be mounted on /home do the same and allocate 40GB in an Ext3 Partition.
[07:31] <bhrobinson> File System type unknown Partition type 0x7
[07:31] <BNOsaosin> hmm anyone wann help me with 3d acceleration on an nvidia card?
[07:32] <BNOsaosin> besides door haha
[07:32] <door> BNOsaosin: no worries, i can't help with that anyway
[07:32] <drbreen> goatsslayer: what do you want to do ?
[07:32] <door> and on that note, goodnight
[07:32] <NickGarvey> !nvidia > BNOsaosin
[07:32] <BNOsaosin> ahh good
[07:32] <BNOsaosin> lol
[07:32] <NickGarvey> door: right
[07:32] <drbreen> goatslayer
[07:32] <DanaG> Ooh, that's a cool idea.
[07:32] <DanaG> I know one of the computers has iTunes installed, so it will respond.
[07:32] <Killeroid> goatslayer: every school/isp has its policies on its internet use, be careful not to break them
[07:32] <Jediborger> Can anyone help me with network booting of ubuntu?
[07:32] <gb453> Nick: it finds a wireless network, not my own because i dont broadcast the SSID
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> Nick: drivers are installed, when i try to apt-get the nvidia-glx, i get an error
[07:33] <Killeroid> goatslayer: and dont harm any IT guys or their babies
[07:33] <bhrobinson> !nvidia > bhrobinson
[07:33] <DanaG> Oh, wireless pranks"
[07:33] <NickGarvey> BNOsaosin: what error?
[07:33] <K-tron> Dev05-- okay... and I assume those were both primary partitions too
[07:33] <|thunder> BNOsaosin, did you install nvidia-glx and change nv to nvidia in xorg.conf ?
[07:33] <qazqaz70> please i want make folder in /var
[07:33] <DanaG> How about the turning-images-upside-down prank?
[07:33] <qazqaz70> call tuxbox
[07:33] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: you sure?
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> or been moved out of Incoming.
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> that package should be filed.
[07:33] <qazqaz70> yesy
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> The following information may help to resolve the situation:
[07:33] <Dev05> K-tron, Yeah, just set what you need. The rest can be left default :)
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[07:33] <BNOsaosin>   nvidia-glx: Depends: xserver-common (>= 4.0.3) but it is not going to be installed
[07:33] <BNOsaosin> sry :)
[07:33] <ZeronenoreZ> door thanks dude i finished it
[07:33] <bhrobinson> thunder, you still there?
[07:34] <Dev05> K-tron, Now, for swap, do the same, but...
[07:34] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: try using sudo then, but I don't know why would you need to do that
[07:34] <goatslayer> drbreen: I just want to mess with some of my mates computers, they are in my laptop enlish class.
[07:34] <DanaG> Too bad there isn't a Linux LLTD driver.
[07:34] <|thunder> bhrobinson, did you apt-get dist-upgrade first ?
[07:34] <Killeroid> goodnight guys, see you all later
[07:34] <devil> can anyone help me with a problem with the GNU GRUB bootloader?
[07:34] <|thunder> er
[07:34] <Dev05> K-tron, The filesystem is swap, be sure to put it as swap in the mount point and allocate the rest of the HD for it.
[07:34] <DanaG> http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=216305
[07:34] <NickGarvey> Killeroid: ght
[07:34] <|thunder> bhrobinson, ya, sry
[07:34] <drbreen> goatslayer: to mess ? are they using windows ?
[07:34] <BNOsaosin> any ideas?
[07:34] <|thunder> BNOsaosin, did you apt-get dist-upgrade first ?
[07:34] <NickGarvey> Killeroid: night**
[07:34] <bhrobinson> thunder, no... should I?
[07:34] <Linuturk> !paste

[07:35] <goatslayer> drbreen: Yes.
[07:35] <gb453> Nick: it finds a wireless network, not my own because i dont broadcast the SSID, any other ideas?
[07:35] <IcemanV9> !grub > devil
[07:35] <drbreen> goatslayer: wireless ?
[07:35] <goatslayer> drbreen: Yes.
[07:35] <BNOsaosin> nope ill try that |thunder
[07:35] <|thunder> bhrobinson, only if your configging video, heh. that was for someone else
[07:35] <qazqaz70> i want add some file thire
[07:35] <goatslayer> drbreen: no security too....
[07:36] <K-tron> Dev05-- the swap partition is a Primary Partition too, correct? and I don't think I specify mount points yet, do I?
[07:36] <bhrobinson> thunder, no, finally got MOST of that working... learned that the nvidia driver sucks. Will not run two cards of the same make
[07:36] <drbreen> goatslayer: ok then use airpwn. it kind of poisons the wlan space - like pr0n on all connections.
[07:36] <qazqaz70> please any one help me to do that
[07:36] <bhrobinson> thunder, did you get my error on the reboot though?
[07:36] <|thunder> bhrobinson, thats weird
[07:36] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: use sudo to do that
[07:36] <goatslayer> drbreen:  Thanks, are you familiar with it?
[07:36] <|thunder> bhrobinson, which error ?
[07:36] <BNOsaosin> |thunder: apt-get dist-upgrade does nothing, everthing is up to date
[07:37] <Dev05> K-tron, Oh, I don't remember, I think you do that in the next step. Sorry, it's just that I don't remember exactly how the Installer looks like.
[07:37] <bhrobinson> File System type unknown Partition type 0x7
[07:37] <qazqaz70> after type  sudo
[07:37] <qazqaz70> what
[07:37] <ZeronenoreZ> how can i add mplayer in firefox and opera?
[07:37] <unikuser> hi. Is there any way to know how much resources(cpu,ram) a process takes over a period of time?
[07:37] <Dev05> K-tron, Now your HD must be filled with three partitions and no more space, is that correct?
[07:37] <drbreen> goatslayer: no, but it seems kinda funny - goatse instead of pictures on the intarweb will surely make life hell for your buddies
[07:38] <goatslayer> drbreen:  is airpwn something like aircrack? cause i know all about aircrack..
[07:38] <bhrobinson> thunder, File System type unknown Partition type 0x7
[07:38] <K-tron> No problem, just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong... Alright, well, I have 3 partitions, sizes got shuffled a little but they are ext3 106.1 gb, ext3 42.36 gb, and linux-swap 700.35 mb in order
[07:38] <|thunder> BNOsaosin, what was that xserver error it gave you ?
[07:38] <K-tron> And yes, that fills the drive
[07:38] <drbreen> goatslayer: no aircrack is used to crack flawed WEP connections
[07:38] <NickGarvey> goatslayer: careful with airpwn, if you are offended by nasty pictures then I would suggest against using it
[07:38] <|thunder> bhrobinson, ohh. thats weird.
[07:38] <qazqaz70> mkdir: cannot create directory `./var/tuxbox': No such file or directory
[07:38] <DanaG> Upside-down is more innocuous.
[07:38] <DanaG> Or invert.
[07:38] <|thunder> bhrobinson, is the slave drive part'd in ntfs ?
[07:38] <bhrobinson> thunder, yes
[07:38] <BNOsaosin> |thunder: you mean when trying to install nvidia-glx?
[07:39] <|thunder> BNOsaosin, yes
[07:39] <blatch> So I've installed the 2.6.15-26-686 headers (and am running that kernel) and trying to compile the orinoco monitor mode drivers and i get the following: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21693
[07:39] <ZeronenoreZ> how can i add mplayer in firefox and opera?
[07:39] <ZeronenoreZ> how can i add mplayer in firefox and opera?
[07:39] <NickGarvey> ZeronenoreZ: don't spam please
[07:39] <goatslayer> drbreen:  goatse stuff is sick, i just want to do simple pranks, like making their winows turn upside down or something.
[07:39] <qazqaz70> why nobody help me
[07:39] <|thunder> bhrobinson, how many parts on the slave ?
[07:39] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: I told you
[07:39] <qazqaz70> ok
[07:39] <BNOsaosin> |thunder: mind if i PM you the error?
[07:39] <|thunder> BNOsaosin, sure
[07:40] <qazqaz70> write command for me
[07:40] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: drop the ./var/tuxbox, make it "sudo mkdir /var/tuxbox"
[07:40] <tom_> hello? I was hoping someone could help me... i just ran a liveCD of Ubuntu, and had internet access without a problem. then, i did the full install, and i can't access the internet now. anyone have any ideas?
[07:40] <Linuturk> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21692 << are my repos updating correctly? what is the difference between Hit, Get, and Ign ?
[07:40] <ZeronenoreZ> NickGarvey, how could i add mplayer in firefox and opera?
[07:40] <NickGarvey> blatch: you need the sources
[07:40] <bhrobinson> thunder, only 1
[07:40] <K-tron> Dev05-- you catch that? should I go on to the next screen?
[07:40] <NickGarvey> !info linux-sources
[07:40] <ubotu> Package linux-sources does not exist in dapper
[07:40] <NickGarvey> or not
[07:40] <drbreen> goatslayer: then use airpwn to turn each image upside down ? provide them with a fake WLAN access point ? there is this software that fakes 43637 APs
[07:40] <Dev05> K-tron, If you agree with that schema, go to the next step, where, yes, you'll set the mount points. Something else, whenever you want to tell me something, put my name on the message so I get the pop-up telling me you're talking to me, otherwise I'll take longer to answer because I'm not always looking in here.
[07:40] <blatch> NickGarvey, i have them
[07:40] <NickGarvey> blatch: sudo apt-get install linux-source
[07:40] <blatch> unarchived and all
[07:40] <sgcplayer> Is it possible to backup my home dir on another partition (without compression)?  I just to save a copy on a partition (vfat) just in case I mess something up on the partition where it currently is
[07:40] <NickGarvey> blatch: doesnt' look like it
[07:40] <K-tron> Dev05, got it:)
[07:40] <goatslayer> drbreen: ok, cuase i dont want any goatse crap..
[07:41] <Dev05> K-tron, ;)
[07:41] <NickGarvey> blatch: oh you need the headers
[07:41] <drbreen> goatslayer: your nickname says otherwise
[07:41] <|thunder> bhrobinson, if you remove the ide bus and switch slave to master does it boot windows?
[07:41] <blatch> i've tried the same command with sudo
[07:41] <qazqaz70> it give me this
[07:41] <blatch> ok
[07:41] <qazqaz70> bash: ./var/tuxbox: No such file or directory
[07:41] <qazqaz70> qazqaz70@ubuntu:~$ sudo ./var/tuxbox
[07:41] <qazqaz70> Password:
[07:41] <qazqaz70> sudo: ./var/tuxbox: command not found
[07:41] <qazqaz70> qazqaz70@ubuntu:~$
[07:41] <blatch> i'll let you know how it goes
[07:41] <bhrobinson> thunder, yes
[07:41] <K-tron> Dev05, got an error when trying to create sda3 :(
[07:41] <drbreen> goatslayer: http://evilscheme.org/defcon/
[07:41] <|thunder> bhrobinson, er, sorry
[07:41] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: no no..
[07:41] <drbreen> goatslayer: http://sourceforge.net/projects/airpwn
[07:41] <Shadowpillar> nspluginwrapper rocks
[07:41] <|thunder> bhrobinson, ya, the win drive will boot as master or whatever ?
[07:41] <Shadowpillar> I notice some syncing probs
[07:41] <NickGarvey> qazqaz70: "sudo mkdir /var/tuxbox"
[07:42] <blatch> i have those
[07:42] <linux__alien> i want to remove the unwanted services that startup during boot.is there any GUI application to stop the unwanted services ?
[07:42] <Shadowpillar> but it isnt that bad
[07:42] <Dev05> K-tron, You have already set the mount points?
[07:42] <NickGarvey> Shadowpillar: works?
[07:42] <DanaG> sgcplayer: I did the same on my system.
[07:42] <DanaG> before I tried Edgy.
[07:42] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: yes
[07:42] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: alien
[07:42] <NickGarvey> Shadowpillar: nice
[07:42] <linux__alien> there is some dosfsck that runs everytime which increases the boot time i want to stop that
[07:42] <NickGarvey> Shadowpillar: ah :)
[07:42] <DanaG> I made a new partition EXACTLY the same size as the one I was backing up, and then dd'd it over.
[07:42] <bhrobinson> yes, it will boot as the master
[07:42] <K-tron> Dev05-- when I clicked forward, it tried to remove/make all the partitions, and it through up an error about sda3... I'll go back and try again
[07:42] <goatslayer> drbreen:  any other programs?
[07:43] <qazqaz70> success thank u man
[07:43] <Dev05> K-tron, ???
[07:43] <Linuturk> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21692 << are my repos updating correctly? what is the difference between Hit, Get, and Ign ?
[07:43] <K-tron> Dev05: *threw up an error, not through
[07:43] <goatslayer> drbreen: i dontwant my class mates to puke lol.
[07:43] <drbreen> goatslayer: what do you want ? just have your fun or seriosly $citpK!ddi3 stuff ?
[07:43] <kerwonz> sorry, i lost grub when i reinstall windows what can i do to get grub_
[07:43] <kerwonz> ?
[07:43] <Dev05> K-tron, I got that, yeah, but, OK, you went forward and you set the mount points. Then you went next again?
[07:44] <qazqaz70> other thing how can drop file from desktop to this dir
[07:44] <sgcplayer> DanaG, can I just copy it?  I have other things on the target partition
[07:44] <drbreen> goatslayer: just wait till the german railway company "deutsche bahn" makes wlan in a train standard. goatse whereever I go !
[07:44] <goatslayer> drbreen: I want fun, or 5cr1pt-k1dd3, just no g04t53
[07:44] <junmin> hi, is there any package used to extract .ace file??
[07:44] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: just download the rpms and use alien
[07:44] <IcemanV9> !grub > kerwonz
[07:44] <NickGarvey> Shadowline: yup :)
[07:44] <blatch> NickGarvey, same error :(
[07:44] <bhrobinson> thunder, yes... when I set it to master it works fine
[07:45] <qazqaz70> ???
[07:45] <goatslayer> drbreen: Do you have any  5cr1pt-k1dd3 stuff?
[07:45] <Explicit> ..
[07:45] <K-tron> No, when you hit forward, it asks if you want to apply the pending changes, I said yes, and starts working, then it popups up "Error while creating /dev/sda3"
[07:45] <K-tron> Dev05 No, when you hit forward, it asks if you want to apply the pending changes, I said yes, and starts working, then it popups up "Error while creating /dev/sda3"
[07:45] <|thunder> bhrobinson, this is mine.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21694
[07:46] <Dev05> K-tron, Really? Is there any other info.?
[07:46] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: http://marius.scurtescu.com/?p=139
[07:46] <qazqaz70> i have a file in desktop .. how can i drop it in /var/tuxbox ?
[07:46] <Shadowpillar> NickGarvey: best, hassle-free instructions
[07:46] <K-tron> Dev05-- can you confirm that the swap partition is supposed to be a primary partition? and not in the gui, I'll check /var/log/installer
[07:46] <drbreen> goatslayer: even if i had (who knows) - i would not give them to you. messing with others computers is bad. errr... may google help you "auditor whax pentest"
[07:46] <NickGarvey> blatch: odd, you sure you have the headers?
[07:47] <blatch> yeah
[07:47] <Dev05> People out there, when you partition a disk for Ubuntu, the swap partition is like all the rest, right?
[07:47] <qazqaz70> anyone help me please
[07:47] <[Nige] > hi all
[07:47] <|thunder> Dev05, swap has its own format
[07:47] <|thunder> Dev05, not ext3
[07:47] <realist> Dev05: swap partition should be 'at lease' 2x your amount of RAM
[07:47] <PyroManiak> What logs can I check to see whats locking my computer?
[07:47] <ThinkingManc> So I'm a long time windows user migrating to ubuntu, having problems getting WPA to work, specifically I think it's an issue with network manager, anyone willing to help
[07:48] <realist> 'at least'
[07:48] <blatch> although when i ls -l its directory in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-26-686 it says there's just a bunch of symlinks
[07:48] <XFox_Prower> I have that issue
[07:48] <BNOsaosin> still having troble with 3d on nvidia
[07:48] <qazqaz70> i want drop file from desktop to this direction var/tuxbox
[07:48] <Dev05> |thunder, Yeah, but not like another type of partition, not extended, primary.
[07:48] <ThinkingManc> and I typed my nick wrong
[07:48] <[Nige] > i am trying to get some dead keys on my keyboard to work... I have written down the codes it gave me using showkeys.. how do I acutally use this information
[07:48] <Dev05> |thunder, Right?
[07:48] <|thunder> Dev05, not sure. lemme see what mine is
[07:48] <Dev05> realist, But K-tron has 2GB of RAM, setting his swap to 4GB would be a total waste of space.
[07:49] <NickGarvey> K-tron: wow, 2GB, nice
[07:49] <goatslayer> drbreen: Im just really interested in this stuff....
[07:50] <realist> Dev05: better that, than using "all the rest" of your remaining disk space
[07:50] <drbreen> goatslayer: then look for yourself and see some tutorials - displaying goatse on a fellows laptop is one thing, killing their machines because windows is flawed another. i would do rather the former than the latter.
[07:50] <K-tron> Dev05-- here's my log file: http://ktron.pastebin.com/776231
[07:50] <IcemanV9> qazqaz70: mv <filename> /var/tuxbox/.
[07:50] <Dev05> realist, He did root and home. The rest that must have been like 512 or so for swap.
[07:51] <Dev05> The rest of*
[07:51] <|thunder> Dev05, gparted isnt tellimg me wether or not these are extened
[07:51] <K-tron> Dev05, realist, I tried to set my swap partition to 604.01 MB
[07:51] <luigi_> hey whats up
[07:51] <K-tron> (the attempt that the log file goes with)
[07:52] <Dev05> K-tron, but you cannot set your partition going beyond the HD's limit..
[07:52] <qazqaz70> thank's man
[07:52] <dmb> HellDragon: heres another highlight
[07:53] <K-tron> Dev05, what do you think I did?
[07:53] <HellDragon> dmb: lol
[07:53] <ThinkingMan> Network manager doesn't appear to want to touch my wireless nic, only the wired one
[07:53] <Dev05> K-tron, emm, eh? What was left in the HD?
[07:53] <K-tron> Dev05, I just tried 107.42 GB for sda1 (ext3), 41.04 GB for sda2 (ext3), and 604.01 MB for sda3 (linux-swap)
[07:54] <TheGame> sup guys
[07:54] <luigi_> nothin
[07:54] <TheGame> cool
[07:54] <mtholdenss> hey has anyone here ordered a free ubuntu cd from ubuntu??? if so how long did it take to ship?
[07:54] <K-tron> Dev05, I think that filled the drive
[07:54] <luigi_> 4 months
[07:54] <Dev05> K-tron, Oh, I'm sorry. And it threw an error. I'm still reading the log.
[07:54] <luigi_> for me
[07:54] <xc_legend> a month for me
[07:55] <mtholdenss> 4 months ? a month? lol
[07:55] <ThinkingMan> k, I'm definitely having an issue with network manager
[07:55] <ThinkingMan> although what I'm not sure
[07:56] <ThinkingMan> Anyone familiar with network manager/
[07:56] <K-tron> Dev05, I tried to only capture one attempt in the logfile (there was more in the log from previous attempts before this), but I might have gotten too much, fyi
[07:56] <mtholdenss> i ask cause im just getting frustrated when i do a direct download and somehow the md5 sum doesnt match and its corrupted but i may try torrenting cause ive been told im gurranteed to get the right md5 sum
[07:56] <sgcplayer> Can I just copy my home directory to another partition using cpdir?  All I want to do is back it up in case I mess up the partition it's currently in.
[07:57] <sgcplayer> the target partition already has files in it I want to keep
[07:57] <Dev05> K-tron I don't find anything useful... Those errors may mean that the HD is dead... Can someone check that?
[07:58] <luigi_> anyone get wow working with an ati card?
[07:59] <K-tron> ?? But I was running windows XP Pro on this hard drive tonight
[07:59] <Dev05> K-tron, XP will blacklist the bad clusters.
[07:59] <K-tron> So you think I've been using a horribly messed up hard drive that XP has been coping with...
[08:00] <K-tron> Dev05, alright, I guess it could be... is there a way to check that?
[08:00] <K-tron> Dev05, I have another drive or so, I'll try one of those I guess tomorrow, because 2am is pushing it for me for tonight
[08:01] <Dev05> K-tron, Well, Xp must be gone so I'm thinking of fsck... Or using Xp's booteable CD to check with chkdsk. You tell me.
[08:02] <shadowwlf> how does one find where xchat places logs
[08:02] <dashriKe> look in /home/user/.xchat2/
[08:02] <Dev05> |thunder, Do you know what this could mean: "Error reading inode 63973."
[08:03] <Dev05> realist, Do you know what this could mean: "Error reading inode 63973."
[08:03] <realist> Dev05: filesystem, or hardware error
[08:04] <realist> Might be worthwhile running fsck
[08:04] <Dev05> K-tron, realist, Ok... Well... K-tron, buy a new one! :)
[08:04] <K-tron> so, 'sudo fsck -a /dev/sda >> ~/fscklog.log' would check and I can see... heh, I think I might be :(
[08:04] <DanaG> Use smartctl to check drive health.
[08:04] <realist> Enabling SMART (if supported) is also a good idea
[08:05] <K-tron> SMART?
[08:05] <Dev05> realist, Will it check even the non-paritioned places?
[08:05] <shadowwlf> how to search for xchat logs?
[08:05] <|thunder> Dev05, ive never heard of such a thing
[08:05] <Dev05> K-tron, Yeah, used to be a BIOS setting, I don't know how to enable it in modern PC :)
[08:06] <Dev05> K-tron, for HD access...
[08:06] <K-tron> lol:
[08:06] <dashriKe> shadowwlf :: try in /home/user/.xchat2/

[08:12] <sgcplayer> Can I just copy my home directory to another partition using cpdir?  All I want to do is back it up in case I mess up the partition it's currently in.  The target partition already has files on it I want to keep.
[08:12] <bluefox83> jirka, startup is the only time it sounds funny?
[08:12] <rdz> bluefox83, just edit your /etc/fstab
[08:12] <nrdb> bluefox83: in the fstab add an 'auto' to the options for that HDD
[08:12] <bluefox83> ah thanks folks
[08:12] <luigi_> jirka - follow this thread http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449

[08:18] <bluefox83> mikey3521, that's what this channel is for..so you might want to be a little more specific
[08:18] <intrico> shadowwlf: there's no program installed by default to make it that easy
[08:19] <dmsantam> mikey3521, what you just asked is like going into an icecream store and asking if anyone wants to sell icecream

But i'm returning alot of error's, not finding any harddrives... etc etc, If you give me one quick second i'll beable to type out the error's as im booting it up now.
[08:20] <bluefox83> mikey3521, pop the installer cd in and see if that works
[08:21] <dashriKe> shadowwlf :: try: find ~/ -name '*xchat*'
[08:21] <dashriKe> or something similar
[08:21] <mikey3521> that's what i'm doing right now, the installer cd is what gives me the error's.
[08:21] <mikey3521> it's just running threw all my startup junk, firmware etc etc, i'll be at the set-up screen in a moment.

[09:11] <qazqaz70> me no but i make u tired with me
[09:11] <user_> hi, is anyone else having troubles accessing ubuntuguide.org ?
[09:11] <Nameless_> bluefox83: i can't ? o_O
[09:11] <chphilli> Does anyone know of a workaround for the crashing bug with fglrx and X ( I think the 686 kernel is involved too ) ?
[09:11] <bluefox83> Nameless_, can't what?
[09:12] <RadiantFire> nothing wrong with building things from source
[09:12] <DeMoNSeEd> that was the last thing i could think of
[09:12] <RadiantFire> Nameless_: can you paste the first error line you see in the build process?
[09:12] <Nameless_> ok
[09:12] <bluefox83> no..but i doubt Nameless_ knows how to make it into a .deb later for easier removal and extraction
[09:12] <Nameless_> http://rafb.net/paste/results/CIU3lH57.html
[09:13] <bluefox83> Nameless_, if you can compile something from source, you can download xchat from the repository
[09:13] <Nameless_> bluefox83: i want to try the 2.6.6 source, can't i try ?
[09:13] <Nameless_> :\
[09:13] <bluefox83> you are using dapper right Nameless_ ?
[09:13] <user_> hi, is anyone else having troubles accessing ubuntuguide.org ?
[09:13] <Nameless_> yes
[09:13] <bluefox83> uhm...i guess
[09:14] <tom47> user ubuntuguide comes up here ok
[09:14] <user_> tom47, thanks
[09:14] <bluefox83> hey...how come the sysinfo util for xchat says i am running debian unstable/testing?
[09:14] <chphilli> user_: ubuntuguide.org is a little slow, but comes up for me
[09:14] <user_> The server at www.ubuntuguide.org is taking too long to respond.
[09:15] <RadiantFire> huh, and here I didn't even know you could link perl
[09:15] <RadiantFire> Nameless_: go into synaptic and do a search for perl 5.8 or something
[09:15] <user_> can someone please give me the URL that it passes you on to? I think ubuntuguide.org is simply a redirect
[09:15] <tom47> user http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[09:15] <user_> thanks
[09:15] <Nameless_> ok, wait
[09:15] <RadiantFire> Nameless_: or better, try installling apt-get build-dep xchat
[09:15] <RadiantFire> Nameless_: have you done sudo apt-get build-dep xchat
[09:16] <mikey3521> tom47, any thoughts? i'm still waiting on this format... which is taking quiet a while.
[09:16] <RadiantFire> thats the easiest way of building thins in the repos

[09:16] <Nameless_> _
[09:16] <user_> Flannel, thx
[09:17] <tom47> mikey3521 i have done a bit of googling ..... def seems to be related to the need to establish partitions first by the look of it but thats about all i can say withut having it sitting in front of me to intelligently comment on sorry

[09:17] <chphilli> Anyone have any experience with fglrx crashing their machine?

[09:23] <ubuntu> i got slackware/ubuntu running dual boot :)
[09:23] <user_> tom47, yes it detects and installs as VESA by default, but google earth is complaining about software emulation so I wanted to know if I can actually get the correct drivers for my hardware, instead of generic
[09:23] <dmsantam> BHSPitLappy, never heard of that
[09:23] <dmsantam> BHSPitLappy, /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:23] <tom47> user_ oh ok sorry cannot help further than that
[09:23] <BHSPitLappy> this happened with two separate friends I've installed for.
[09:24] <BHSPitLappy> dmsantam, does it need to be sudo
[09:24] <ubuntu> BHSPitLappy:  cause u killed it :O
[09:24] <dmsantam> BHSPitLappy, yes
[09:24] <dmsantam> BHSPitLappy, i should have specified that, sorry
[09:24] <BHSPitLappy> ubuntu, it usually comes right back after a kill.

[09:33] <DeMoNSeEd> sorry
[09:33] <brendon> no worries
[09:34] <DeMoNSeEd> it was a yup in the wild
[09:34] <ubuntu> lol
[09:34] <ubuntu> hey DeMoNSeEd
[09:34] <ubuntu> hi brendon
[09:34] <DeMoNSeEd> hi
[09:34] <brendon> hi ubuntu
[09:34] <DeMoNSeEd> nice name
[09:34] <brendon> awe thanks
[09:34] <DeMoNSeEd> lol
[09:34] <DeMoNSeEd> i meant ubuntu
[09:35] <mtholdenss> im doing a torrent download at the moment once thats done  and the md5 sum doesnt match im just going to wait for my free ubuntu cd or go to the newsagents and get a linux mag
[09:35] <brendon> opps hehe
[09:35] <ubuntu> ty
[09:35] <ubuntu> :)
[09:35] <DeMoNSeEd> but, taking nothing away from yours
[09:35] <brendon> who in here is a ubuntu member?
[09:35] <DeMoNSeEd> define member
[09:35] <Madpilot> mtholdenss, bittorrent has built-in error catching, you should get a good download w/ BT
[09:35] <brendon> ty
[09:35] <ubuntu> DeMoNSeEd:  u know bout rsync?
[09:36] <ompaul> brendon, there are several of us
[09:36] <DeMoNSeEd> i know of it
[09:36] <DeMoNSeEd> never used it
[09:36] <Madpilot> brendon, anyone with ubuntu/member/ in their hostmask is an Ubuntu Member ;)
[09:36] <brendon> why not order your copies from shipit
[09:36] <ubuntu> does it support resume feature?
[09:36] <DeMoNSeEd> i'd be lying if i said i knew
[09:36] <ompaul> ubuntu, torrent does it is one if its features
[09:36] <DeMoNSeEd> having never used it, i honestly do not know
[09:36] <ubuntu> ompaul: i'm talking bout rsync
[09:37] <ubuntu> DeMoNSeEd: kool, np
[09:37] <mtholdenss> yeh hopefully this torrent comes through fine if not ill just be patient :) but in the past when i installed ubuntu it was ok a bit buggy but now checking the md5 sum to what it should be makes sesne to what happened im glad im checking to make sure if its right save cds
[09:37] <ompaul> ubuntu, k sorry
[09:37] <brendon> ok  just that i have have been wanting to become a member but on the website say that you have to be at the meeting  abit hard when you live in new zealand
[09:37] <ompaul> mtholdenss, make sure you do the md5sum on the downloaded image
[09:37] <ubuntu> ompaul: np :)
[09:37] <ompaul> mtholdenss, and burn the cd slowly say 4x is a bit low but 8 or lower
[09:37] <mtholdenss> yeh thats what ive been doing and i plan on doing that before i burn a disk
[09:38] <DeMoNSeEd> did you use the live mtholdenss
[09:38] <ompaul> brendon, I would never be able to get the amount of CDs I do if I relied only on shipit
[09:38] <mtholdenss> im not sure i just got the ubuntu desktop 6.06.1 iso
[09:38] <Madpilot> brendon, the meetings are all on IRC
[09:38] <DeMoNSeEd> i burn at 4x all the time
[09:38] <DeMoNSeEd> live then
[09:39] <DeMoNSeEd> i never use it
[09:39] <ubuntu> mtholdenss:  get the alternat version
[09:39] <DeMoNSeEd> right
[09:39] <ubuntu> it supports text-based installer too
[09:39] <brendon> oh ok  yes but major time differance though ae
[09:39] <DeMoNSeEd> alternate is far better
[09:39] <mtholdenss> i directly downloaded that same iso both times with both different md5 sum, somethings  up with that...
[09:39] <mtholdenss> the alternate?
[09:39] <DeMoNSeEd> yes
[09:39] <Madpilot> brendon, well, they try and move the times around to get as many ppl as possible
[09:39] <mtholdenss> whats the difference
[09:40] <ubuntu> it supports text-based installer too
[09:40] <Madpilot> mtholdenss, desktop is the liveCD, alternate is just the installer CD
[09:40] <DeMoNSeEd> everyone is different, but that being said, the live to Hd is a pita to me
[09:40] <brendon> ok cool  what time is the next meeting as i'll have to try and figure out the time zone  differance
[09:40] <mtholdenss> does the installer cd have the same gui installer that the live cd has?
[09:41] <DeMoNSeEd> different, but painfully easy
[09:41] <brendon> i have found the alt cd better as takes up less resources  if you have a slower machine
[09:41] <Madpilot> brendon, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityCouncilAgenda
[09:41] <mtholdenss> less resources?
[09:42] <DeMoNSeEd> try it mtholdenss
[09:42] <DeMoNSeEd> it's very simple
[09:42] <seatouch> !ftp
[09:42] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[09:42] <brendon> ok having a look but  most of my work is done in the community  advocating and helping others that way haven't been doing much online so how could that help me become a member?
[09:42] <mtholdenss> smaller iso image?
[09:42] <DeMoNSeEd> if you can read you can install
[09:43] <ubuntu> mtholdenss: just try it dude :p
[09:43] <ubuntu> lol
[09:43] <DeMoNSeEd> desktop 698
[09:43] <DeMoNSeEd> alternate 692
[09:43] <ubuntu> nothing like coffee :)
[09:43] <DeMoNSeEd> look here, easier than the huge list you're probably lookin at
[09:43] <Madpilot> brendon, you'd need to get witnesses or similar for advocacy work - it is hard to track
[09:44] <DeMoNSeEd> http://www.gotux.org/index.php?page/ubuntu
[09:44] <ubuntu> and angelina jplie :x
[09:44] <ubuntu> joile*
[09:44] <tn3270> hee
[09:44] <fredl> hi. Does anybody use lirc?
[09:44] <DeMoNSeEd> i'd skip the coffee
[09:44] <ubuntu> lol
[09:44] <mtholdenss> the end result i want is to have a 15Gb partition with ubuntu on it and a 60 GIG hard drive partition for xp
[09:44] <brendon> ok  how about get some people to email  one of the member or  the likes
[09:46] <DeMoNSeEd> that help you any mtholdenss ?
[09:47] <ubuntu> i do have to update my os
[09:47] <ubuntu> still on 5 here
[09:47] <Madpilot> brendon, to be honest, I'm not sure how the community council would 'measure' advocacy. I'd advise attending one of the CC meetings and observing first, there might be a chance to ask questions - you could add yourself to the agenda
[09:47] <ubuntu> :(
[09:47] <Madpilot> !upgrade
[09:47] <DeMoNSeEd> update?
[09:47] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[09:47] <Madpilot> ubuntu, ^^^
[09:47] <ubuntu> Madpilot:  yep got it
[09:47] <ubuntu> ty
[09:47] <Madpilot> np
[09:47] <DeMoNSeEd> what are you running?
[09:47] <ubuntu> ubotu:  ty :)
[09:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ty :) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:48] <ubuntu> lol he is a funny help bot :)
[09:48] <W_McL> lol
[09:48] <DeMoNSeEd> yeah, that's one word for it
[09:49] <ubuntu> i'm running ubutnu 5 for now
[09:49] <mtholdenss> yeh sorta, u get my message about what i want the end result?
[09:49] <ubuntu> dual booting with slackware
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> geez
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> Hoary?
[09:49] <ubuntu> breezy
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> ah
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> 2.12
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> move up to speed
[09:49] <brendon> ok  thanks for that  i have just had a look it is 10am my time so that is cool, just  i have been reading up and they do say on there  website  that advocacy  is considered as well
[09:49] <DeMoNSeEd> 2.14, sweet
[09:50] <ubuntu> yep will do today
[09:50] <ubuntu> i was trying to get dual boot working
[09:50] <ubuntu> gentoo/ubuntu
[09:50] <ubuntu> guess what?
[09:50] <Madpilot> brendon, yes, advocacy helps. Are you involved in any of the Ubuntu teams?
[09:50] <DeMoNSeEd> now that's a dual boot
[09:50] <ubuntu> gentoo was hard on me ;))
[09:50] <ubuntu> lol
[09:50] <DeMoNSeEd> lol
[09:50] <mtholdenss> demonseed u get that message? or did my connection time out
[09:50] <Madpilot> ubuntu, could you ease up on your Entre key a bit, please? One line per sentence...
[09:50] <DeMoNSeEd> nope no message
[09:51] <Madpilot> Enter key, even... ;)
[09:51] <ubuntu> Madpilot: xcuse me?
[09:51] <mtholdenss> the end result i want is to have a 15Gb partition with ubuntu on it and a 60 GIG hard drive partition for xp
[09:51] <brendon> i have put forward to join  but haven't been accepted  have put forward for newusers  and a couple of otheres
[09:51] <PyroManiak> Anyone know a way to display smaller icons for the Nautilus bar?
[09:51] <DeMoNSeEd> ubuntu, are you registered on freenode?
[09:51] <ubuntu> DeMoNSeEd: nope
[09:51] <DeMoNSeEd> you should
[09:51] <ubuntu> i just recently joined irc
[09:51] <ubuntu> i'm new to it
[09:52] <Madpilot> ubuntu, using three or four lines per sentence can be considered spamming, especially on a busy channel like this one...
[09:52] <DeMoNSeEd> then we could pm and keep room clearer
[09:52] <ubuntu> Madpilot:  i'll keep that in mind, sorry for the incovience
[09:52] <TheGateKeeper> ubuntu: using the default name is a bit of a give away :-)
[09:52] <mtholdenss> brb
[09:53] <ubuntu> i'll register
[09:53] <DeMoNSeEd> good idear
[09:53] <DeMoNSeEd> in the end it helps
[09:55] <Madpilot> brendon, just showing up (on IRC & mailing lists) and starting to help/contribute is the best way to get accepted to teams. Several use membership as a reward, not a prerequisite
[09:55] <fredl> Hrrmm configuring lirc is tricky it seems
[09:56] <SlaSheR84> is it posible to run x over ssh?
[09:56] <fredl> SlaSheR84, yes.
[09:57] <yacc> SlaSheR84: ssh does that quite well. Either by default
[09:57] <fredl> SlaSheR84, ssh -X
[09:57] <yacc> SlaSheR84: Or you need to specify -X
[09:57] <crash> anyone know how to make limewire work
[09:57] <brendon> umm ok  i see, well it is something to work on,  i have added myself to become a member anyway so hopefully  i will be accepted
[09:57] <ubuntu> crash: install and use ;)
[09:57] <DeMoNSeEd> use frosttwire
[09:57] <fredl> SlaSheR84, that's only for starting up X programs remotely though, not for an X session.
[09:57] <DeMoNSeEd> *frostwire
[09:58] <ubuntu> DeMoNSeEd: how do i go about registering ?
[09:58] <DeMoNSeEd> 1 sec
[09:58] <Madpilot> ubuntu, first you'll have to find a nick that isn't already registered.
[09:59] <DeMoNSeEd> http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#registering
[09:59] <DeMoNSeEd> read that
[09:59] <ubuntu> ty guys
[09:59] <mikey3521> tom47, i'm burning the live cd right now so i'll let you know what happen's in a second.
[10:00] <brendon> that is one good thing with the live cd is that you can install  of it
[10:01] <DeMoNSeEd> Madpilot, , that's no small trick anymore, finding a nick
[10:01] <Madpilot> DeMoNSeEd, it can be a bit of a challenge ;)
[10:01] <DeMoNSeEd> lol
[10:02] <DeMoNSeEd> demands creativity to the max :)
[10:02] <NineTeen67Comet> Anyone have a light weight .torrent downloader? I thought bittornado would be fine, but the gui is #3 on top's use chart (Followed by xgl, and compiz magine that) ..
[10:03] <NineTeen67Comet> ner'mind .. gotta get going ..
[10:03] <ubuntu> nixternal: ktorrent
[10:03] <DeMoNSeEd> use cli
[10:05] <xst> I have a CUPS problem: When I, from my local host, A, try to print to a remote CUPS-host, B, all that comes out from the printer is a sheet with some "@PJL SET foo=bar" lines on it. If I print directly from the remote box (B), the output is just fine. Not even "echo foo | lpr" is printed correctly from hos A. What to do?
[10:06] <ubuntu> DeMoNSeEd: 1 ?
[10:06] <DeMoNSeEd> yeah?
[10:06] <ubuntu> nickserv is the server name or my nickname
[10:07] <DeMoNSeEd> server
[10:07] <DeMoNSeEd> so create a name in xchat
[10:08] <ubuntu> ok , i 'm using cli now
[10:08] <DeMoNSeEd> then just register it as the page says
[10:08] <ubuntu> let me login into xchat
[10:08] <ubuntu> brb
[10:08] <nox-Hand> Hey
[10:09] <nox-Hand> In the 6.06 installer (( the one with graphical liveCD on it )), how do I boot up the text-based installer?
[10:09] <DeMoNSeEd> use the alternate
[10:09] <brendon> agree  with demonseed there  i think you have to use the alt cd to do that
[10:10] <nox-Hand> DeMoNSeEd, i.e. the full installer with X on it cannot boot it?
[10:10] <nox-Hand> Ah, right
[10:10] <ubuntu> back
[10:10] <DeMoNSeEd> wb
[10:10] <nox-Hand> Well, I shall use the graphical one then....seing as I got about 17 of em left, be stupid not to  use it
[10:10] <ubuntu> thanks
[10:10] <DeMoNSeEd> no luck
[10:11] <g1gaman> tell me why EVERY time i resize a panel on ubuntu desktop, after restart i can't use gnome due desktop flickering &glittering. i did it on three different computers (PC x86) with different video cards and EVERY time repeats the same problem. is it possible to make panel ~50 pxls wide? my sight is too weak for standard 24px on 1024x768 (19" display). Thank you in advance.
[10:12] <mikey3521> tom47, i've got the live-cd up & running, what app did you say I should use to get the disk's right?
[10:12] <DeMoNSeEd> it'll go to 50

[10:20] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: 1024x768 with 75 mhz is not so impossible settings for displaying
[10:21] <DeMoNSeEd> check your monitors specs
[10:21] <DeMoNSeEd> they should be findable

[10:23] <siXy> can anyone give me a hand getting an nic working?
[10:24] <fredl> does anybody still have problems with the ATI hardware 3D like me?
[10:25] <fredl> hoi brynk.
[10:25] <fredl> hoi e-jey
[10:25] <brynk> hoi
[10:25] <fredl> 755 people on channel, yet so little meaningfull talking going on....
[10:26] <brendon> agree with you there fred
[10:26] <mikey3521> uhci_hcd  host controller process error, somthing bad happened. /  host controller halted, very bad! / hc died; cleaning up....     i get that when trying to install.... anyone???
[10:26] <asabil> anyone knows how to fix usplash for wiescreens ?
[10:27] <fredl> the questions asked get more diverse and complicated though, which is why it seems less and less questions are being answered properly IMO.
[10:27] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd, so?
[10:27] <DeMoNSeEd> it;s fine
[10:28] <DeMoNSeEd> not a prob, just it's huge
[10:28] <fredl> so is anybody here using fglrx?
[10:28] <asabil> anyone knows how to fix usplash for widescreens ?
[10:28] <siXy> heah i think the channel should be split, maybe into four say, basic, advance, server, hardware
[10:28] <DeMoNSeEd> so you're set at 75?
[10:29] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: nope. just 50
[10:29] <DeMoNSeEd> no your res
[10:29] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: 50 is enough
[10:29] <michaels__> how do I set up KDE on standard Dapper so I have an option to start a KDE session?
[10:29] <UU> help me , xmms playlist are mistake unicode .
[10:29] <tom47> mikey3521 ru still here
[10:29] <fredl> sixy, everybody would go to advanced anyway when they believe their relatively simple question can't be solved.
[10:29] <mikey3521> yes i am
[10:29] <DeMoNSeEd> 1024x768 @ 75?
[10:29] <brendon> ok just out of interest what is fglrx , is that some sort of display driver??
[10:29] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: yes
[10:29] <DeMoNSeEd> try 85
[10:30] <realist> ATI propriatry drivers.
[10:30] <siXy> fredl - true. but at leaat you can say - this can be covered in the basic channel. maybe the basic channel could have a list of things its there for
[10:30] <siXy> i dunno
[10:30] <fredl> michaels_ I believe you can just apt-get install kde?
[10:31] <siXy> but i very rarely get any answers here i generally have to go to other distros channels and then try to port the solution to ubuntu
[10:31] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: i can't. 75 is the only available option.
[10:31] <fredl> brendon - fglrx is the ATI proprietary display driver.
[10:31] <DeMoNSeEd> how about 70?
[10:31] <DeMoNSeEd> oh
[10:31] <DeMoNSeEd> only
[10:31] <brendon> right  sorry  me bad
[10:31] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: nope. just 75
[10:31] <mikey3521> tom47, any thoughts?
[10:31] <DeMoNSeEd> what graphics card you have
[10:31] <fredl> sixy - I have noticed the same, but it used to be different, just half a year ago I'd get nearly every question I asked here answered.
[10:31] <tom47> mikey3521 ...... i am filled with questions lol
[10:32] <tom47> have you booted into the livecd?
[10:32] <dmier> hi everyone, i have a question mepis is based on ubuntu?
[10:32] <mikey3521> yes
[10:32] <siXy> it has to be said, i dont tend to ask simple questions which is probably part of the reason (this nic is being a real pain in the ass), but its a bit frustrating
[10:32] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: it's some integrated stuff
[10:32] <DeMoNSeEd> hmm
[10:32] <tom47> ok then start gparted .....under  System>Administration
[10:32] <DeMoNSeEd> makes a diff
[10:33] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: i don't remember the motherboards number, but it's intel
[10:33] <mikey3521> ok
[10:33] <johnnybezak> siXy: i think its probably more that your problems are more complicated not that the answers aren't there. thats what i find
[10:33] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: and 64mb videoram
[10:33] <fredl> dmier - I don't know but from this http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=mepis it doesn't look like it.
[10:33] <DeMoNSeEd> i810?
[10:33] <siXy> johhny - thats what i meant
[10:34] <fredl> johnnybezak, exactly. As Ubuntu gets more advanced, more people start using it and the questions get exponentially more complex.
[10:34] <tom47> mikey3521 you should now be ablke to create partitions with it
[10:34] <buntix> re dsol
[10:34] <siXy> also most ppl that hang around here are great at fixing problems with desktops, but there arent so many that know lots about servers
[10:34] <DeMoNSeEd> there other rooms that try to help draw some of the pressure off of here
[10:35] <bbrazil> siXy: there is #ubuntu-server iirc
[10:35] <fredl> siXy, I don't really agree though. I've been asking questions about getting my ATI card running again after I upgraded to Ubuntu 6.0
[10:35] <siXy> bbrazil -- oohhh ty. thats not mentioned (at least not prominently) on the website
[10:35] <fredl> siXy, without much luck I might add. Also, the recent xorg debacle was pretty baaaaaad from a desktop point of view.
[10:35] <DeMoNSeEd> i'm outta idears g1gaman
[10:36] <bbrazil> siXy: actually it looks like it died. What was your question?
[10:36] <siXy> ahhh its a development chan. nvm
[10:36] <johnnybezak> fredl: that too, but i was more referring to that when you start using ubuntu your questions are simple "how do i chmod this" "why isn't sound working" and then all of a sudden you're asking about compiling kernels and complex cups setups. do you get me?
[10:36] <siXy> cant get a nic (netgeat ga302t, tigon3 cmodul) to load
[10:36] <siXy> *module
[10:36] <bjron> how do I disable dma for one of my drives at boot?
[10:36] <bbrazil> siXy: also, an -advanced channel won't work, everyone would just go in there by default :)
[10:36] <fredl> johnnybezak, I understand you perfectly well. For a long time as a Linux user I've been used to my 'remote control' not working, or my '3D hardware support' not working, it was the norm....
[10:37] <DeMoNSeEd> that's true
[10:37] <bbrazil> siXy: error message?
[10:37] <g1gaman> DeMoNSeEd: funny, the device manager doesn't show video adapters at all :)
[10:37] <siXy> cant find any :(
[10:37] <michaels__> what packages do I install on standard Dapper to get an optional KDE session?
[10:37] <DeMoNSeEd> find out if ya can at some point
[10:37] <bbrazil> siXy: dmesg?
[10:37] <fredl> johnnybezak, but these days I get irky when I can't get my hardware 3D support to work, so the expectation level has been raised considerably.
[10:37] <DeMoNSeEd> i think you're not set up right
[10:37] <PyroManiak> My remote control hardlocks my machine Linux user
[10:38] <TheGateKeeper> fredl: I don't use ATI myself, everything I have seen suggests that ATI is bad news for linux
[10:38] <siXy> dmesg | grep Eth* turns up nothing
[10:38] <bbrazil> siXy: you're looking for a module load error, that won't mention eth
[10:38] <fredl> TheGateKeeper, well honestly, I don't think so. ATI seems to have a pretty strong commitment but it looks like the community doesn't like ATI much sometimes.
[10:39] <fredl> well that's just my impression.
[10:39] <PyroManiak> is there a log that shows what failed during bootup?
[10:39] <fredl> PyroManiak, you could try using dmesg
[10:39] <siXy> ahhh found tg3_test_dma() Write the buffer fialed -19
[10:39] <siXy> *failed
[10:39] <mikey3521> tom not working i only have access to /dev/mapper/casper-snapshot which is only 2040mb, not the size of my harddrive at all..
[10:39] <siXy> aparently the dma engine test failed... eh? its a network card
[10:40] <DeMoNSeEd> it might help, if it was room policy to try to get people to register, then if someone wants to aid someone, they can do it in pm, take away a little of the slog in here
[10:40] <tom47> mikey3521 hmmm
[10:40] <fredl> siXy, and why would network cards not use DMA? :)
[10:40] <bbrazil> siXy: sounds like bad hardware. See if you can pass the module an option not to use DMA
[10:40] <ron_> can I run ubuntu with dual monitors?
[10:41] <fredl> DeMoNSeEd, that seems like an okay idea, sometimes this channel scrolls by very rapidly and it's hard to keep track.
[10:41] <todoestaqui> hello everyone
[10:41] <DeMoNSeEd> exactly
[10:41] <al0cunit> can anyone explain how to insatll ndiswrapper....
[10:41] <fredl> DeMoNSeEd, and then PM sessions could be translated into 'known solutions' things that get posted on the website for example.
[10:41] <PyroManiak> fredl: Is there something like that command that might show me what the last thing was before I hardlocked?
[10:41] <bbrazil> fredl: DeMoNSeEd channel policy is not to use pm, so that everyone learns and if the helper gets stuck others can jump in
[10:42] <DeMoNSeEd> well, then this is what you get
[10:42] <fredl> PyroManiak, probably not since it hardlocks you, which indicates a problem. That's the problem with logging problems, you typically don't WANT them :)
[10:42] <TheGateKeeper> fredl: you would think that asking how you enable a british keyboard with Arch linux would be relatively simple, but no one seems to have any answers, so I will just have to do some more fidling around :-)
[10:42] <siXy> hmmm googling the error turns up a lot of stuff about editing the kernel source code....
[10:42] <narg> is there any way to export the gconf/gnome settings database?
[10:42] <bbrazil> siXy: sounds about right
[10:42] <DeMoNSeEd> creating another room won't end anything
[10:43] <rast4> anyone know how to get the Linksys wireless card working without NdisWrapper? There is a way, I just lost the info
[10:43] <PyroManiak> fredl: well, I need someway to find out what is causing this to crash "randomly"... or I might as well go back to winXP.. lol
[10:43] <fredl> bbrazil, oh I understand that perfectly fine, sharing the conversation is great, but it gets extremely hard to follow like 10 different conversations going on at the same time.
[10:43] <siXy> it seems to be a problem with somehting getting initialised too early. hmm.
[10:43] <bbrazil> fredl: nikc hilighting makes it bearable
[10:43] <bbrazil> *nick
[10:43] <DeMoNSeEd> you have to decide, is the room here to teach, or help
[10:44] <fredl> bbrazil, true, that's why I try to stick to typing somebody's name at the start of a line.
[10:44] <bbrazil> DeMoNSeEd: teach is #ubuntu-classroom iirc
[10:44] <DeMoNSeEd> lol
[10:44] <TheGateKeeper> DeMoNSeEd: should be to help
[10:44] <DeMoNSeEd> touche
[10:44] <bbrazil> DeMoNSeEd: if it's empty you can usually take a newbie in there
[10:44] <fredl> bbrazil, would it be an idea to log PM sessions? I'm sure that could be arranged with freenet operators, correct?
[10:45] <PyroManiak> [17179960.016000]  cpufreq: change failed with new_state 1 and result 0
[10:45] <PyroManiak> is that my problem?
[10:45] <bbrazil> fredl: no, legal issues alone...
[10:45] <fredl> bbrazil, hmmm...
[10:45] <DeMoNSeEd> no my point is people come in here to get help, if 1 to 1 is the way, so be it, the flow in here is huge
[10:45] <OmniD> I made a guest account that I don't want to have administration priveledges but still be able to choose a wifi connection
[10:46] <OmniD> they are unable to by default
[10:46] <bbrazil> anyway, this sort of meta discussion is really for #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:46] <fredl> bbrazil, a new mechanism could be implemented, say 'public message to one person'
[10:46] <fredl> like /pquery
[10:46] <ron_> can I run ubuntu with dual monitors?
[10:46] <DeMoNSeEd> anyhoo, we try to help as best we can in our room, as we know you get mucho bogged in here
[10:46] <bbrazil> fredl: actually taking in channel is a private message to a lot of people. but let's not get into the IRC protocol
[10:47] <bbrazil> fredl: *talking
[10:47] <fredl> DeMoNSeEd, I know :) I'm not so much criticizing the willingness of Ubuntu people coz I think that rockz. It's *effective*, yet not so *efficient* as more and more people get interested in #ubuntu, agreed?
[10:48] <DeMoNSeEd> totally
[10:48] <todoestaqui> anyone can help me ? on term konsole, when typed 'ls | less' => ok but when typed 'ps | less' -> bash : less: command not found ???
[10:48] <fredl> bbrazil, well it could be as simple as an addition to the IRC client maybe hmmm.
[10:49] <DeMoNSeEd> no simple solution
[10:49] <fredl> bbrazil, do you happen to know anybody who's *particularly* involved in the support quality?
[10:49] <bbrazil> fredl: no, it's just equivilent to using a channel
[10:49] <PyroManiak> is there a problem with using the 686 kernel? I think when I switched to that is when I started getting the hardlocks
[10:50] <bbrazil> PyroManiak: try switching back
[10:50] <Awesome-o2000> PyroManiak, what CPU do you have?
[10:50] <fredl> PyroManiak, not to my knowledge. Anyway, lemme see if I can help you and focus a little bit. Could you describe the problem a bit again?
[10:50] <siXy> hmmm it looks like there may be a newer version of the tg3 driver to fix this issue - des ubuntu ship with gcc, kernel headers etc?
[10:50] <PyroManiak> Awesome-o2000: p3m
[10:50] <bbrazil> siXy: there's packages for them
[10:50] <OmniD> siXy: at least gcc
[10:51] <DeMoNSeEd> build essential
[10:51] <Awesome-o2000> PyroManiak, you should be ok...
[10:51] <siXy> yeah but given that the nic isnt working, installing the packages is going to be a right pain
[10:51] <rast4> if I get an error " bash: make: command not found" How would I go about installing make? is that a libc package or something?
[10:51] <bbrazil> siXy: build on another system
[10:51] <tom47> mikey3521 been doing some more googling ... it looks like you have some special isues there
[10:51] <PyroManiak> fredl: Well, its just hard locking... seems pretty random... and I know I was stable for a few weeks, and I'm stable in windows, so I'm sure I mucked something up :] 
[10:51] <bbrazil> rast4: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[10:51] <mtholdenss> gentoo vs ubuntu
[10:52] <Awesome-o2000> lol - Snakehit when we used to smoke pot in college we'd call it a "snake hit" if the pipe had 1/2 of a puff left in it
[10:52] <rast4> ty
[10:52] <bbrazil> mtholdenss: #ubuntu-offtopic for that please
[10:52] <mtholdenss> what to choose, ubuntu and gentoo both support xgl
[10:52] <fredl> PyroManiak, have you recently changed (removed/reinstalled) your kernel?
[10:52] <leagris> tom47, what you are looking for is the build-essentials package
[10:52] <bbrazil> mtholdenss: or maybe ##linux
[10:52] <Snakehit> hh Awesome-o2000
[10:52] <Awesome-o2000> mtholdenss, what exactly are you looking to accomplish?
[10:52] <mtholdenss> ok sorry bbrazil
[10:53] <tom47> leagris yes?  well i am out of my depth so if someone can help him go fr it
[10:53] <bbrazil> mtholdenss: among other things we're rather biased in here
[10:53] <DeMoNSeEd> lol
[10:53] <mtholdenss> ?
[10:53] <ron_> hmmmmmm
[10:53] <rast4> bbrazil: seems to not have worked
[10:53] <daniele_981> hello i want update mi kde to version 3.5.4 i've the 3.5.2 but i don't say
[10:53] <fredl> PyroManiak, you could try doing 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall kernel-image-`uname -r`'
[10:54] <bbrazil> rast4: did you get an error?
[10:54] <leagris> tom47, make and other needed tools to compile buid and so on is installed with the package named build-essentials
[10:54] <PyroManiak> fredl: well, I did many updates on the same day... Ubuntu had me upgrade the default i386 kernel, and then I went and got the 686 kernel a few hours later... but that was about 2 weeks ago when the hardlocks started
[10:54] <rast4> bbrazil: no candidate version found for build-essential
[10:54] <fredl> PyroManiak, if you had several hardlocks, maybe your filesystem got a bit messed up when you had lots of upgrades yet had to hit the power button.
[10:55] <bbrazil> rast4: odd, check your spelling. If that doesn't work sudo aptitude update
[10:55] <rast4> ok
[10:55] <leagris> PyroManiak, 1386 ? You were running a very old Kernel. This might be of interrest to acheologists ^^
[10:55] <PyroManiak> leagris: isn't that the default for the ubuntu livecd?
[10:55] <daniele_981> hello i want update mi kde version but i dont's say how.
[10:55] <bbrazil> leagris: eh, you realise the 386 kernel  and the 686 are the same except for optimizarions?
[10:56] <fredl> PyroManiak, what does 'uname -r' say right now?
[10:56] <rast4> bbrazil: needed to do sudo aptitude update first, now it is working, ty
[10:56] <PyroManiak> fredl: haven't done that yet.. just sec...
[10:56] <mtholdenss> anyone here used xgl and your screen just went black or i think i may have followed the tut wrong, i dunno, anyone else had that?
[10:56] <sioux> hi people I heard that the new ubuntu edgy will use smart than synapitc it is true?
[10:56] <leagris> bbrazil, I was joking about 1386 Year date Kernel
[10:57] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: you are not trying to build something that is in the repos are you?
[10:57] <DeMoNSeEd> postponed isn't that
[10:57] <daniele_981> Help meeeeeeeeee
[10:57] <Bassetts> what can i use to rip dvds?
[10:57] <DeMoNSeEd> i think Smart has been postponed
[10:57] <leagris> Help, I need somebody help! (Beatles)
[10:57] <sioux> cdrip
[10:58] <DeMoNSeEd> check launchpad
[10:58] <PyroManiak> fredl: got a "lock error"
[10:58] <sioux> sorry acidrip
[10:58] <TheGateKeeper> sioux: yes, the bad news is that it's wriiten in python not c++
[10:58] <fredl> PyroManiak, I know I had big problems when I went ahead to try and install fglrx 8.27 manually, you have to build a new kernel but with the same version number for that. I then (because of the recent xorg fu) tried uninstalling that kernel afterwards so the actual kernel *file* was gone but GRUB still thought it was there coz it only remembers where it starts. Then Linux will gradually re-use the filesystem space while you still boot from that kernel.
[10:58] <sioux> no
[10:58] <rast4> thegatekeeper: trying to use ndiswrapper because i can't remember how to get my wireless card to work the other way without it
[10:58] <fredl> PyroManiak, you get a 'lock error' when you do uname -r ??
[10:58] <fredl> eek
[10:58] <bbrazil> fredl: that's lilo, grub uses the filesystem
[10:58] <sioux> Thegatekeeper smart is very bad
[10:58] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: ok just checking :-)
[10:58] <rast4> thegatekeeper: I've never used ndiswrapper so this kinda sucks, there is a way to get it working without it and i'd much rather do it that way, but I forgot how
[10:59] <bbrazil> fredl: s/uses/understands/
[10:59] <fredl> bbrazil, oh really? Hmmmm...
[10:59] <rast4> I'm also getting errors with make uninstall with ndiswrapper
[10:59] <rast4> ::(
[10:59] <rast4> I can't win here
[10:59] <fredl> bbrazil, either way, I had a kernel that started recognizing less and less hardware as time went by :)
[10:59] <PyroManiak> fredl: can I /msg you so I dont flood?
[10:59] <al0cunit> rast4 what error..?
[10:59] <bbrazil> fredl: sounds like dead hardware
[10:59] <daniele_981> rast4: i want update and upgrade my kde how i do????
[11:00] <DeMoNSeEd> sudo apt-get update
[11:00] <fredl> bbrazil, nope, reinstalling the kernel with apt-get install --reinstall fixed the problem completely
[11:00] <TheGateKeeper> sioux: no will just be slower than if it was written in c++
[11:00] <daniele_981> DeMoNSeEd: nada
[11:00] <sioux> I do not understand why many distro change to smart. SuSE too choesed this way
[11:00] <fredl> PyroManiak, I think I'll have to register first then :)
[11:00] <bbrazil> fredl: maybe corruption of /lib/modules
[11:00] <DeMoNSeEd> nada?
[11:00] <rast4> al0cunit: make: *** [uninstall]  error 1
[11:00] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: I take it that it doesn't have linux drivers?
[11:01] <daniele_981> DeMoNSeEd: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade but the version is 3.5.2
[11:01] <sioux> Apt is so simple to use and so easy ti add repos and manage the sistem
[11:01] <aarohi> is there a shockwave plugin available anywhere for firefox?
[11:01] <al0cunit> i get the same error....
[11:01] <fredl> bbrazil, could well be, I'm still having problems as we speak to insert the fglrx kernel module properly
[11:01] <rast4> Thegatekeeper: I didn't have to use any drivers last time I don't recall
[11:01] <DeMoNSeEd> k i mistook
[11:01] <geoffDeGeoffGeof> when you connect to a network server using the places menu where does the network drive appear on the filesystem?  I cannae find it...
[11:01] <fredl> PyroManiak, go ahead and PM me
[11:01] <aarohi> is there a shockwave plugin available anywhere for firefox?
[11:01] <wjs60>  :) hello
[11:01] <PyroManiak> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[11:02] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: isn't that what you are trying to do with the ndiswrapper?
[11:02] <wjs60> firefox is so bade
[11:02] <fredl> aarohi - yes, check ubuntuguide.org
[11:02] <aarohi> is there a shockwave plugin available anywhere for firefox? their site says the browser type could not be detected
[11:02] <rast4> PyromankiaK: close Synaptik
[11:02] <aarohi> fredl: ty
[11:02] <fredl> wjs60, firefox rulez :)
[11:02] <daniele_981> samethimes help me????
[11:02] <DeMoNSeEd> no shockwave
[11:02] <wjs60> fredi that is right
[11:02] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: Yes, but last time I didn't have to use it
[11:02] <DeMoNSeEd> always promised
[11:02] <DeMoNSeEd> never delivered
[11:02] <d4t2ill4> hi guys
[11:02] <rast4> daniele_981: sudo apt-get update
[11:02] <aarohi> DeMoNSeEd: is that true?
[11:02] <wjs60> it was so slew that you cant eve use it
[11:03] <TheGateKeeper> sioux: smart is just a clever gui, as far as I am aware you can still use synaptic/apt-get
[11:03] <d4t2ill4> iam new to ubuntu, and wish to add azureus to a startup service.. is that possible?
[11:03] <DeMoNSeEd> ffill in your name on this list, when we get enough we'll happily portb it over, for years we've had that
[11:03] <Toge> xserver-core yuju
[11:03] <Toge> hello
[11:03] <daniele_981> i do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade but rhe version is 3.5.2
[11:03] <DeMoNSeEd> *port
[11:03] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: autodetected?
[11:04] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: I believe so, because I'm trying this NDisWrapper now and it's erroring like a mofo, so it must have autodetected last time
[11:04] <ndee> hey there, I'm looking for an mp3 player like iTunes for ubuntu. I tried amarok but it's kinda too confusing and I can't manage to create a simple playlist.
[11:05] <daniele_981> nothing????????
[11:05] <DeMoNSeEd> like itunes
[11:05] <DeMoNSeEd> banshee i guess
[11:05] <rast4> wow I got an error with: make uninstall, make and make install
[11:05] <rast4> nothing will work
[11:05] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: only an idea, for the sake of 20-25 if you have it, might be worth buying one that has native linux drivers
[11:06] <ndee> DeMoNSeEd: gonna try that
[11:06] <Ackeubu_> hey how do i view boot up messages?
[11:06] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: it's not even that, I have 5 laptops, but I had this one working already with the driver somehow, just can't for the life of me remember and obviously ndiswrapper isn't working for me
[11:06] <daniele_981> nothing update the kde to version 3.5.4???????????????????????
[11:06] <DeMoNSeEd> http://banshee-project.org/Main_Page
[11:07] <DeMoNSeEd> that's their page
[11:07] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: back the data up and reinstall ??
[11:07] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: too late, figured there was nothing I wanted so that's what I already did, that's where I'm at now :P
[11:07] <daniele_981> is possible??????
[11:08] <rast4> it even shows my wireless as eth1 in network list
[11:08] <rast4> just isn't connecting/functioning
[11:08] <nox-Hand> Okay, I just installed Ubuntu, but my password seems.....to not work
[11:08] <nox-Hand> Can I change it?
[11:08] <nox-Hand> Or.
[11:09] <DeMoNSeEd> can't help daniele_981
[11:09] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: that sounds like the problem, and why it isn't working
[11:09] <Ackeubu_> is the messages from bootup stored in some logfile i can view?
[11:09] <DeMoNSeEd> try asking in #kubuntu
[11:09] <fredl> Ackeubu_, /var/log/messages
[11:09] <Ackeubu_> ty
[11:09] <TheGateKeeper> rast4: should be wlan1 or whatever
[11:09] <daniele_981> but same repo????
[11:09] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: That's what I need to know, I'm connected via eth0 which is LAN, but I need the eth1 to work
[11:09] <DeMoNSeEd> i myself don't know about the kde
[11:10] <lostsync> what's a common thing that might be eating up a lot of free space in ~/?
[11:10] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: Even when it worked, it was listed as eth1
[11:10] <Nae> What should I do to install non-application packages, like mp3 codecs?
[11:10] <Flannel> !tell Nae about mp3
[11:10] <rast4> TheGateKeeper: never wlan*
[11:10] <Flannel> Nae: follow those instructions for mp3/etc
[11:10] <nox-Hand> Anyone?
[11:10] <Nae> Okay.
[11:10] <Nae> Thanks.
[11:10] <DeMoNSeEd> you password
[11:11] <Flannel> nox-Hand: what do you mean "not work"
[11:11] <fredl> bbrazil, the simple answer to what we talked about earlier is that there should be more structure somehow in the chat that's going on on the channel.
[11:11] <DeMoNSeEd> nox-Hand, you're logged in??
[11:11] <nox-Hand> Flannel, well, either I typed it wrong twice, or something else is wrong. I just would like to know whether I gotta just reinstall, or whether there might be a simple sollution
[11:11] <fredl> bbrazil, a structure that doesn't make anything 'private' or 'secret' but just more organized.
[11:11] <Flannel> nox-Hand: sure, you can change it.  Let me get you a link
[11:11] <nox-Hand> DeMoNSeEd, I am writing from a lappy
[11:12] <DeMoNSeEd> ah
[11:12] <DeMoNSeEd> pooched
[11:12] <yojimbo-san> How can I ask sources.list to give me a specific package from multiverse? I don't want to include the whole repo, just a single package ...
[11:12] <Soulfly> how can I see the top memory consumption of a script?
[11:12] <nox-Hand> Thanks, Flannel
[11:12] <Flannel> nox-Hand: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[11:13] <Flannel> nox-Hand: basically, you log in to the root/recovery console, then set your password to something else ;)  pretty simple
[11:13] <Bassetts> can someone give me advice on locoteams?? all the loco channels seem dead
[11:13] <fredl> is there a checkbox in xchat to stop seeing joins/leaves in the channel?
[11:14] <nox-Hand> Flannel, forgot about that one. Cheers :)
[11:15] <dmsantam> Soulfly, top
[11:15] <Soulfly> dmsantam: The script could take under a second. Hard to track in top
[11:16] <lostsync> fredl, right click on the #ubuntu tab
[11:17] <dmsantam> Soulfly, i c. i can' t think of a way then
[11:17] <dmsantam> Soulfly, you could sleep at the end of it so you can see. memory from the process won't be freed till the process ends anyway
[11:17] <Ackeubu_> hey how do i boot into terminal instead of going to the graphical loggin window?
[11:17] <dmsantam> Ackeubu_, ctrl-alt-F2
[11:17] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: thanks, when do i do that?
[11:17] <dmsantam> Ackeubu_, when you're at graphical login menu
[11:18] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam i dont get there.. hehe installed edgy. and it crashes before
[11:18] <ndee> DeMoNSeEd: Banshee was exactly what I was looking for, thank you :)
[11:18] <dmsantam> Ackeubu_, damn. you need to boot into single user mode then
[11:18] <dmsantam> you can do that from the grub menu
[11:18] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: root mode?
[11:19] <Ackeubu_> huuh?
[11:19] <DeMoNSeEd> yw
[11:19] <dmsantam> Ackeubu_, from there, you can disable gdm (graphical login)
[11:19] <HNT> hello everybody, is there an alternative to amule under gnome ?
[11:19] <DeMoNSeEd> amule specifically?
[11:20] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam okay. so when im in edit mode what do i do?
[11:20] <DeMoNSeEd> or just a file sharing package
[11:20] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: ill go there wait a sek
[11:20] <DeMoNSeEd> HNT, ?
[11:20] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: wait it works
[11:20] <dmsantam> oh?
[11:21] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: i reconfigured xog.conf
[11:21] <HNT> not amulle but  a compatible edonkey client
[11:21] <dmsantam> xorg.conf good.
[11:21] <dmsantam> and now gdm is working?
[11:21] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: and i think i might have made a vega conf that works
[11:21] <DeMoNSeEd> k , i was going to suggest frostwire
[11:21] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: im totally shocked
[11:21] <dmsantam> :)
[11:21] <Soulfly> dmsantam; thanks for the tip.  i'm looking into valgrind / gdb / etc now..
[11:21] <nox-Hand> HNT, I use frostwire - thats the GNUtella network. Quite nice. I think it's aDonkey you are looking for, though
[11:21] <FRiDG3> Which is the best FTP-client with a graphical interface to ubuntu?
[11:21] <dmsantam> Soulfly, np :)
[11:22] <Ackeubu_> dmsantam: thanks so much..im running
[11:22] <Nucular> good morning everybody
[11:22] <nox-Hand> FRiDG3, gFTP
[11:22] <HNT> thanks, i will try it
[11:22] <nox-Hand> Jolly good
[11:22] <FRiDG3> nox-hand; thanks, I will try it out
[11:22] <dmsantam> no worries :)
[11:23] <Nucular> it would be nice if anybody could tell which file i have to use to start a command on startup (for my intel graphic card, so it has to be done before x starts)
[11:23] <opexoc> how can i display ( thanks to apt-get ) list of packages which I want to search ?
[11:24] <nox-Hand> opexoc, like apt-cache search <foo>? Like apt-cache search gftp would give you gftp packages?
[11:24] <fdoving> Nucular: what do you want that command to do? is it administrative? if you want to run the command as root(administrator) you can put the command into /etc/rc.local
[11:24] <d4t2ill4> hello
[11:24] <d4t2ill4> what run level is just console?
[11:24] <d4t2ill4> i notice in inittab runlevel 2 is default and it is gnome
[11:24] <bbrazil> there isn't one
[11:24] <Daemoz> 123456
[11:25] <d4t2ill4> noooo
[11:25] <bbrazil> !nox
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nox - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <bbrazil> !nodm
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nodm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <bbrazil> eh, /msg dpkg nodm
[11:25] <Daemoz> !fedora
[11:25] <ubotu> Other Linux distributions include; .deb-based: Debian, Mepis; RPM-based: RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva; Source-based: Gentoo, Slackware
[11:25] <nox-Hand> bbrazil, what?
[11:25] <d4t2ill4> !nogui
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nogui - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <bbrazil> nox-Hand: there is no explicit VT only runlevel
[11:25] <Nucular> fdoving: i think so, because it writes a resolution into the bios of the grafic card ... its neccessary cause it uses the ram. thats my understanding of the things
[11:25] <DeMoNSeEd> well, iu'm oot, nite everyone, take care
[11:25] <ndee> sorry to bother again but what's a good graphical ftp program? I tried gftp but when I try to copy a directory with subdirectories, the files never got uploaded.
[11:25] <d4t2ill4> hmm so for unbuntu desktop it has to be gui?
[11:26] <fdoving> Nucular: then /etc/rc.local is for you.
[11:26] <opexoc> nox-Hand: but it doesn't really work. ie: apt-cache search human . and this display some package which don't have in its string word "human".
[11:26] <bbrazil> d4t2ill4: no, just disable the dm
[11:26] <Nucular> fdoving: thank you sooooo much
[11:26] <d4t2ill4> ahh okie
[11:26] <DeMoNSeEd> get alternate install server
[11:26] <nox-Hand> bbrazil, what has that got to do with searching for nox, and me? :P Sorry, confused here
[11:26] <DeMoNSeEd> add what you want
[11:26] <bbrazil> nox-Hand: I wasn't talking to you
[11:26] <Bassetts> operative: that will be because human is in its description
[11:26] <Bassetts> *opexoc
[11:27] <nox-Hand> bbrazil, >> <bbrazil> nox-Hand: there is no explicit VT only runlevel <-- thats what confused me
[11:27] <ndee> ah, now gftp works. Weird, oh well, I'm not complaining :D
[11:27] <DeMoNSeEd> nox-Hand, you want no gui?
[11:27] <bbrazil> d4t2ill4: no, d4t2ill4 does
[11:27] <opexoc> Bassetts: it is not true. for example it displays "yapps2-runtime - Yet Another Python Parser System".
[11:27] <bbrazil> DeMoNSeEd: ^
[11:27] <fdoving> opexoc: apt-cache --names-only search human
[11:28] <DeMoNSeEd> ?
[11:28] <Bassetts> opexoc: what fdoving said
[11:28] <DeMoNSeEd> bbrazil, ?
[11:28] <nox-Hand> Hey, in #ubuntu-uk it says in the topic  Don't install the update to package xserver--xorg-core  !!' any idea why?
[11:28] <Bassetts> because it broke X
[11:29] <opexoc> ok but when i want to search the description too ?
[11:29] <WarOfAttrition> that's been fixed though
[11:29] <Bassetts> but a update is out
[11:29] <WarOfAttrition> you can install it just fine now
[11:29] <opexoc> because apt-get search is not working
[11:29] <Bassetts> obviously lazy ops in ubuntu-uk
[11:29] <fdoving> nox-Hand: there was a faulty security update some days ago. it's safe now.
[11:29] <WarOfAttrition> the problem was 1.0.3 the current is 1.0.4
[11:29] <nox-Hand> Ah, right, thanks
[11:29] <nox-Hand> DeMoNSeEd, nope, it was someone else about it :P
[11:30] <DeMoNSeEd> oh man, sorry
[11:30] <nox-Hand> Np :P
[11:30] <nox-Hand> brb
[11:31] <DeMoNSeEd> anyhoo, i'm out
[11:31] <DeMoNSeEd> laters
[11:31] <Daemoz> Can I install gnome-terminal in xfce??
[11:31] <ogdoad> byebye <
[11:31] <Daemoz> mmhmm?
[11:31] <Gassed> is there any way I can use the scroll lock light as the Hard Disk light?
[11:32] <Bassetts> Daemoz: should be ok to do
[11:32] <Daemoz> because gnome-terminal rocks
[11:32] <micahcowan> Daemoz, yes, but it depends on several gnome libraries. No reason it won't work under any arbitrary wm, though.
[11:32] <Bassetts> Gassed: that would require hacking your keyboard apart i would think
[11:33] <Bassetts> wb nox-Hand
[11:33] <opexoc> or maybe how can i display all database of apt-cache entries ? then i can use egrep.
[11:33] <nox-Hand> cheers, Bassetts
[11:33] <Gassed> Bassetts: I mean using software
[11:33] <nox-Hand> opexoc: What are you trying to do?
[11:33] <Bassetts> Gassed: i dont think thats possible, you would have to mod/hack your keyboard for it to work
[11:34] <Gassed> damn
[11:34] <fdoving> opexoc: what is it you're tryging to do?
[11:34] <dmsantam> opexoc, just do apt-cache search .
[11:34] <Gassed> But I know as a fact you can use software to turn on/off keyboard lights.
[11:34] <opexoc> nox-Hand: i want to find some entry in apt-cache which match to my regular expression but now apt-cache search is not working
[11:34] <meathead_> in windows xp I could press ctrl alt del and see what programs are taking up exactly how much memory, my linux install takes up a full gig of ram at once! wtf! how do I see what is taking up all that ram?
[11:34] <dmsantam> opexoc, but it's much better to do apt-cache search package_name
[11:34] <WarOfAttrition> I dont think ps/2 is connected to the hdd light mechanics
[11:35] <Gassed> meathead_: I think it just reserves it all?
[11:35] <joachim-n> how do I add other languages for spellcheck in Office Writer?
[11:35] <nox-Hand> opexoc: Hmn, that's odd. Sorry, mate, cant help
[11:35] <Bassetts> WarOfAttrition: software can read the HD activity but sending it to the keyboard is another thing
[11:35] <Gassed> WarOfAttrition: *In Windows you can do it.
[11:35] <meathead_> Gassed: ....no.
[11:35] <WarOfAttrition> activity yes, but not the exact output that goes into the light
[11:35] <opexoc> dmsantam: when i execute: apt-cache search human then it displays for example "yapps2-runtime - Yet Another Python Parser System
[11:35] <opexoc> ", so is not working here
[11:36] <Gassed> You can control keyboard lights with software, you can rad hdd usage with software
[11:36] <WarOfAttrition> if all you want is output put a system monitor on your screen
[11:36] <Gassed> Combine the two
[11:36] <dmsantam> opexoc, USE THE . (FULL STOP)
[11:36] <dmsantam> opexoc, apt-cache search .
[11:36] <fdoving> opexoc: did you try to use 'apt-cache -n search human' ?
[11:36] <dmsantam> opexoc, then pipe to grep. if that's really what you want to do
[11:36] <Bassetts> Gassed: you mean you can control scroll lock with software... whixh it turn makes the scroll lock ligt operate
[11:36] <Gassed> Yes
[11:37] <cry0gen> Bassetts: i had an app do that a while ago
[11:37] <rem> Hey what is the syntax to configure the software updates through a proxy with authentification. Currently I can only do that in command line ,.,.
[11:37] <cry0gen> was a pain in the arse to write
[11:37] <cry0gen> but was pretty cool
[11:37] <cry0gen> i could have the lights on my keyboard do crap
[11:37] <Bassetts> so Gassed if you hooked up the HD activity to the scroll lock it will constantly be turning your scroll lock on and off
[11:37] <meathead_> http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9538
[11:37] <cry0gen> right now I have the logitech gaming elite keyboard scroll text etc.
[11:37] <Gassed> So?
[11:37] <meathead_> hd activity light program
[11:37] <meathead_> run it in wine
[11:37] <meathead_> meatheads.
[11:37] <rem> i tried user:pass@ip:port but it only looks at the ip and port ..
[11:37] <Gassed> hd activity light program? Whre from?
[11:37] <cry0gen> i have banned wine from my machine./
[11:37] <meathead_> ...the link I just sent
[11:37] <opexoc> fdoving: yes, but it really displays entry which match to name of package
[11:37] <Gassed> kk
[11:38] <meathead_> it's available in german and english
[11:38] <opexoc> ok will use egrep for this problem and ".
[11:38] <opexoc> thanks guys :)
[11:39] <WarOfAttrition> sure, I've seen some emulators do that too, but it's not the same light output that is on your case
[11:39] <meathead_> Gassed: p.s. it only works in XP so set a winecfg template for the program as a winxp program
[11:39] <fdoving> opexoc: isn't that what you want? to display only package names that match what you search for?
[11:39] <rem> anyone ?
[11:39] <Bassetts> rem??
[11:39] <Jimmey> I've got two Ubuntu computers connected over an ethernet cable, which is the easiest way to send a file from one to the other
[11:39] <rem> Hey what is the syntax to configure the software updates through a proxy with authentification. Currently I can only do that in command line ,.,.
[11:39] <opexoc>  fdoving: no... apt-cache is working bad
[11:39] <rem> i tried user:pass@ip:port but it only looks at the ip and port ..
[11:40] <opexoc> fdoving: no... apt-cache is working bad with apt-cache search
[11:40] <rem> i get error 407 authentifiaction required when i try to update  ..
[11:40] <fdoving> opexoc: if you explain what you want i can tell you how to get that. but you're not very clear.
[11:40] <opexoc> fdoving: that's why i have problems
[11:40] <meathead_> my solution: proxies are a bitch. stop using the,/
[11:40] <meathead_> them.
[11:40] <cry0gen> Jimmey: is it a cross over cable?
[11:40] <Bassetts> rem: dont know where the pass goes into it, sorry
[11:40] <cry0gen> Or are they setup through a switch
[11:40] <MrEntropy> yo
[11:40] <WarOfAttrition> proxies are fine if you pay for them
[11:40] <Jimmey> cry0gen, they directly connected, and can ping each other.
[11:40] <cry0gen> ok awesome
[11:41] <cry0gen> Jimmey: so, SCP is your best bet
[11:41] <cry0gen> and or rsync
[11:41] <bbrazil> rem: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/48332
[11:41] <rem> my proxy works fine....and i dont pay for it .... its since ubuntu dapper that I have this conf prob with ubuntu ..
[11:41] <Jimmey> cry0gen, carry on..
[11:41] <rem> thx
[11:41] <cry0gen> what you'll need to do is
[11:41] <opexoc> fdoving: ok... so I want to search entries ( name and description ) in apt-cache database which match to some word. that's all. apt-cache search "some word" is nor working
[11:41] <WarOfAttrition> i bet it's not as good as a direct connect though
[11:41] <MrEntropy> i installed NVidia drivers, they work fine, but whenever i reboot, ubuntu (some startup script) deletes the kernel module (nvidia.ko) and replaces it with some stock standard. then there's a mismatch and i don't have X. how can i stop whatever overwrites it?
[11:41] <cry0gen> scp remotehostaddy:/path/to/folder/and/or/file(/) /path/to/local
[11:42] <vinnybinny> anyone with experience envy?
[11:42] <rem> apt.conf doesnt work anyomre since Dapper ..
[11:42] <Jimmey> cry0gen, thanks.
[11:42] <meathead_> opexoc: apt-cache search * | egrep?
[11:42] <cry0gen> as long as the other box has SSH enabled
[11:42] <vinnybinny> experience with "envy"
[11:42] <cry0gen> I assume it does
[11:42] <opexoc> meathead_: yes it is solving this problem...
[11:42] <cry0gen> haha
[11:42] <cry0gen> there was a flee
[11:42] <cry0gen> attacking me
[11:42] <cry0gen> I lit it on fire.
[11:43] <Gassed> wheres the wine config file?
[11:43] <cry0gen> .wine/config
[11:43] <cry0gen> sorry
[11:43] <cry0gen> ~/.wine/config
[11:43] <cry0gen> usually
[11:43] <Gassed> thanks
[11:43] <cry0gen> np, :)
[11:44] <Gassed> its not there
[11:44] <cry0gen> hmmm
[11:44] <cry0gen> did you run wine
[11:44] <cry0gen> first to get it setup
[11:44] <Gassed> Yup why
[11:44] <cry0gen> hmm it should have generated a default setup
[11:44] <fdoving> opexoc: what's wrong with the output of apt-cache search word?
[11:44] <fdoving> opexoc: you can use 'apt-cache search regex'
[11:45] <ppd> hello. I have configured a computer to provide xdmcp and I can see that service from another computer running ubuntu dapper (from a live cd). but when I connect to that computer I only get an empty Xserver with a mouse cursor on it. what can that be?
[11:45] <rem> ok...so from what i see until edgy I'll have to use the command line to update ..
[11:45] <cry0gen> ppd: odd, did you allow the remote host the ability to connect to xdmcp
[11:45] <masterham> anygirls here?
[11:46] <cry0gen> masterham: sometimes there are
[11:46] <opexoc> fdoving: apt-cache search regex . it displays for example :  'patchutils - Utilities to work with patches'. so something is going wrong.
[11:46] <opexoc> .
[11:46] <ppd> cry0gen: yes. otherwise it wouldn't even show up on the other computer
[11:46] <cry0gen> opexoc: just apt-cache search regex | awk '{ print $1 }'
[11:47] <masterham> so what kind of chat room is this
[11:47] <cry0gen> so no matter what it'll just print column one
[11:47] <ppd> cry0gen: AUDIT: Sat Aug 26 11:16:06 2006: 4403 X: client 4 rejected from IP 127.0.0.1
[11:47] <ppd>  appears in Xorg.0.log
[11:47] <masterham> all techincal?
[11:47] <cry0gen> ahh
[11:47] <fdoving> opexoc: it searches the description too, as you want to: 'apt-cache show patchutils|grep regex'
[11:47] <micahcowan> masterham, yes, this is a tech support channel only.
[11:47] <cry0gen> masterham: pretty much, yes.
[11:47] <masterham> cool
[11:47] <cry0gen> masterham: there is an OT channel.
[11:47] <fdoving> opexoc: then you'll see that the description of patchutils contains the word regex.
[11:48] <masterham> so if i need help on linox i can ask you guys
[11:48] <micahcowan> OT chan not very active at the moment
[11:48] <cry0gen> Ubuntu in general.
[11:48] <micahcowan> masterham, if it's Ubuntu linux, then yes.
[11:48] <cry0gen> micahcowan: yeah
[11:48] <masterham> so how do you load a lib package for the first time
[11:49] <opexoc> fdoving: wow... so why apt-cache displays only Utilities to work with patches?
[11:49] <cry0gen> a library?
[11:49] <masterham> yeah,
[11:49] <cry0gen> Well, ldconfig of course links the libraries to the Lib database.
[11:49] <masterham> i download a package and i need a depend file
[11:49] <cry0gen> and when you compile something -LX11 for instance would include
[11:49] <cry0gen> libX11.a
[11:50] <masterham> it was missing libc6
[11:50] <cry0gen> which would load it's relating .so
[11:50] <cry0gen> libc6-devel :)
[11:50] <fdoving> opexoc: what is the word you want to search for?
[11:50] <masterham> yeah
[11:50] <micahcowan> masterham, I don't see how you could be missing libc. Nothing would run.
[11:51] <cry0gen> micahcowan: probably just the devel libraries
[11:51] <micahcowan> ah, yes.
[11:51] <masterham> well i do have a libc6
[11:52] <masterham> but for the package i want it requires lic6 2.3.2.1-21
[11:52] <opexoc> fdoving: ok... any really particular word. I only wondering how working apt-get, apt-cache. but this matter was solved now.
[11:52] <Ace_NoOne> hello there
[11:52] <cry0gen> masterham: Which package are you trying to build?
[11:52] <masterham> and i have on my system libc6 2.3.2.1-13
[11:53] <masterham> libc6 2.3.2.1-21 (i want to build)
[11:53] <Ace_NoOne> I'm a Linux newbie, but I wanna switch to Linux ASAP - now I know that Ubuntu is considered the perfect distro for starters like me, but I much prefer the KDE GUI (as used in Knoppix, for example). Is there a solution for this dilemma?
[11:54] <dmsantam> Ace_NoOne, kubuntu
[11:54] <dmsantam> !kubuntu
[11:54] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment. For more info see http://kubuntu.org ; to install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. To downgrade your version of kubuntu to an older version see: http://www.linuxfordummies.org/index.php?topic=609.0
[11:54] <Ace_NoOne> yay!
[11:54] <fredl> is there a way to verify the files installed in a package?
[11:54] <fredl> so, to check if they're still the same contents?
[11:54] <Ace_NoOne> so it's all Ubuntu (so no drawbacks to the "original") but with KDE GUI?
[11:54] <fdoving> opexoc: an example: 'apt-cache search regex' returns a whole load of packages. 'apt-cache search ^regex' returns (here at my computer) regexxer and libtre4. regexxer because it's name starts with what we searched for. libtre4 is listed because the short description of the package starts with the word we're searching for. If you use 'apt-cache -n search ^regex' only regexxer is returned, because -n says to only look at the name.
[11:55] <micahcowan> Ace_NoOne, yes, that's the gist of it.
[11:55] <Ace_NoOne> awesome! thanks a lot
[11:55] <Ace_NoOne> one last question then: considering that I'm such a newbie, preferring KDE might just be ignorance on my part - why did the Ubuntu team chose GNOME in the first place?
[11:56] <masterham> when ur trying to build a package, where do you start in?
[11:56] <fredl> Ace_NoOne, coz the people that started Ubuntu probably liked GNOME better :)
[11:56] <Ace_NoOne> so it's purely a matter of preference?
[11:56] <fredl> masterham, you mean you're trying to build a .deb?
[11:56] <masterham> yeah
[11:56] <fredl> Ace_NoOne, I think so.
[11:56] <atm0sph> #xgl hey
[11:56] <catch1> hi
[11:56] <Ace_NoOne> cool - thanks for the info!
[11:57] <opexoc> i am wondering is there any way to get source of some  modul of ubuntu. Moreover I want to change some things and compile it and include in my system ( changing some existed modul ) ?
[11:57] <fredl> masterham - there's very good docs on making your own .debs on the web I don't think you'll find much expertise on that here on channel.
[11:57] <shawarma> opexoc: "module" as in "kernel module" or as in "package"?
[11:57] <fredl> opexoc, apt-get source <modulename>
[11:57] <opexoc> fdoving: cool... thx :)
[11:57] <masterham> thanks
[11:58] <fdoving> masterham: i'd suggest reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuPackagingGuide
[11:58] <fredl> opexoc, well strictly that'd be apt-get source <packagename>
[11:58] <masterham> i have been working on it all day
[11:59] <OsirisX11> hello
[11:59] <fredl> masterham - here's a decent start I think http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8047723203.html
[11:59] <OsirisX11> is there any easy disk encryption systems that abstract it completely from me and just let me log in like normal to unlock the disk?
[12:00] <opexoc> fredl: ok... but if i changed some piece of this code and compile how can i include it to ubuntu ?
[12:00] <fredl> is it recommendable to use 'kdm' instead of 'gdm' when you just want to give kubuntu-desktop a brief try?
[12:00] <masterham> hey fredl thanks i will check it out. i booked marked it
[12:01] <fredl> opexoc, well that's a little bit tricky. After you've apt-get source'd something you will find the source code somewhere in your current working directory I think. It will also have some .deb build files in it. Start trying to figure out how to do that before you start thinking about modifying.
[12:02] <masterham> hey fredl, do you think its cool to teach urself or get some classes
[12:02] <Churchiel> where does vlc install to.. eg where is the directory where the theme folder is found?
[12:02] <fredl> masterham, what do you mean? would I like to be a teacher, is that what you're asking?
[12:02] <masterham> i mean learning linux in general
[12:03] <ompaul> you will only learn by using it
[12:03] <fdoving> fredl: yes, i recommend using kdm. you can easily change back to GDM with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm' from the commandline when you're done.
[12:03] <fredl> masterham, well I don't know if there's any Linux trainings specifically for Ubuntu...
[12:03] <masterham> okay
[12:03] <fredl> fdoving - ok, I'll try that. several months ago I tried kubuntu-desktop as well but ran into some problems with it.
[12:04] <BlueEagle> opexoc: If you change the source then ./configure && make && sudo make install it should be installed.
[12:04] <fredl> masterham, there's excellent Redhat training classes though which will also teach you a lot of Linux fundamentals.
[12:04] <morpheus> Hello everyone!
[12:04] <blabla> i need to create a peer to peer network in a lan
[12:04] <blabla> with clients in windows and linux
[12:04] <morpheus> this is my first time browsing thru linux!! ;)
[12:04] <morpheus> although I have used linux before...
[12:04] <blabla> anyone knows a client and server to make this ?
[12:04] <Churchiel> where would vlc install to?
[12:05] <fredl> okay, bbl
[12:05] <atm0sph> I don't suppose anyone would know why my computer won't let me change to 1152x864 resolution?  I've got /etc/X11/xorg.conf setup to what I believe is correct, yet when I load into gnome it's using 1024 and there's no other options listed under Preferences, Screen Rresolution
[12:05] <masterham> i was thinking about taking some training classes, but i was wondering if teaching myself would be better
[12:05] <ompaul> masterham,  so you can get a series of clues in lessons, you must implement them then, there are thousands of packages in a distribution so it may be useful to accelerate some of your knowledge intake, but beware, ubuntu is not redhat suse or mandriva, or for that matter debian, it is in its own space, so I would say get the ubuntu specific books and work through them
[12:05] <fdoving> BlueEagle: i would not recommend doing it that way. i'd recommend using debuild to build a new package, after bumping the version number in debian/changelog
[12:05] <BlueEagle> fdoving: ok
[12:06] <BlueEagle> blabla: Ok, I am not sure why you need a p2p network on a lan but you could easily set up a torrent tracker.
[12:06] <masterham> yeah ompaul
[12:06] <PyroManiak> I'm back
[12:06] <xevil> masterham: you might could find a user group to join... that helps...
[12:06] <mtholdenss> is there a harm burning the ubuntu disk image at the slowest speed just to be safe?
[12:06] <ompaul> masterham, when you have done that for a month then get someone who is better with debian or ubuntu to give you some of the harder info, and reward them
[12:06] <opexoc> fredl: I know. I really don't want to modify anything now, but I am only wondering about it because in future I will want to do something like that, so I want to know is there any chance to come true.
[12:06] <ompaul> mtholdenss, only to your sanity - x4 or x6 should be slow enough
[12:06] <masterham> lol reward them
[12:06] <fdoving> BlueEagle: or atleast using checkinstall instead of make install.. to be able to keep track of the files with the package manager.
[12:06] <masterham> okay that sound cool
[12:07] <ompaul> masterham, well they spent time learning, you are getting thought - pay them (I was being less crass)
[12:07] <masterham> lol
[12:07] <masterham> that sounds like a plan
[12:07] <PyroManiak> Crap..... anyone remember who was helping me? lol
[12:08] <levander> I think I remember that nautilus uses the growisofs libraries to burn DVD's, is that right?
[12:08] <ompaul> PyroManiak, no so if you restate your qestion and do it calmly no doubt someone will help
[12:08] <masterham> so ubuntu is not like debian?
[12:08] <itsmegb> Churchiel: i have vlc installed to /usr/share/vlc
[12:08] <PyroManiak> ompaul: nah.. it fixed.. I Wanted to thank the person =P
[12:09] <chendo> what's the easiest way to setup a small DNS server for a small LAN so i can have my *nix boxes to be able to resolve each other
[12:09] <ompaul> levander, you are right if as I recall
[12:09] <Jimmey> When I try to access a SMB share, I am asked for a Domain, and a Password, but I don't know what these are, nor how they were set.
[12:09] <levander> masterham: ubuntu is a lot like debian, it's a derivative, but i believe they've made ubuntu easier to use
[12:09] <ompaul> masterham, it is based on debian, however where debian uses root, you use sudo
[12:09] <ompaul> masterham, other than that they are rather similar
[12:09] <masterham> so do i use dpkg to install new packages?
[12:10] <levander> masterham: you can use dpkg, but their are higher level interfaces also
[12:10] <BlueEagle> chendo: for less than ten hosts using /etc/hosts on each machine. If you've got a router with a sensible interface you can set up static routes. Either that or you can read up on bind
[12:10] <ompaul> masterham, you could or you could use synaptic package manager in the gui or apt-get or aptitude etc
[12:10] <ompaul> !repos > masterham
[12:10] <levander> masterham: dpkg just installs, apt-get downloads *AND* installs, synaptic is a GUI to the whole process
[12:11] <chendo> BlueEagle, /etc/hosts on each machine? ;/
[12:11] <ompaul> masterham, to get more software have a check of the message from ubotu
[12:11] <BlueEagle> chendo: yes.
[12:11] <xst> I do not quite understand the apache-accesses graph in munin: Why does the "m" mean in the y-axis labels ("100 m", "200 m", etc.)? It cannot be "million access per second"
[12:12] <BlueEagle> chendo: For a network with ten hosts or less that's probably the easiest solution. (Setting up a name server isn't all that easy. Atleast not if you want to do it right.
[12:12] <Dynalon> hi, somebody knows how i can get my nautilus to browse smb shares? got samba installed & running, but i miss the "network" icon in nautilus
[12:12] <BlueEagle> )
[12:12] <chendo> BlueEagle, damn.
[12:12] <cry0gen> My dns caching server on my home network took about 15-20 minutes.
[12:12] <mtholdenss> i know itunes isnt on linux but is it possible to play music from linux thats in my itunes library on my mac if they are networked...?
[12:12] <cry0gen> With no prior experience.
[12:12] <BlueEagle> chendo: How ever if you got speedtouch or similar ADSL modem then you can set up routes using that.
[12:12] <cry0gen> Got about 30 pc;'s on the network.
[12:13] <chendo> BlueEagle, how does routes have to do with DNS?
[12:13] <Samuli^> mtholdenss, what file format the files are?
[12:13] <mtholdenss> mp3
[12:14] <cry0gen> mtholdenss: get banshee with helix support
[12:14] <cry0gen> and or
[12:14] <cry0gen> get Song-bird.
[12:14] <BlueEagle> chendo: You can specify a host name to an IP in the speed touch series.
[12:14] <cry0gen> Two VERY nice solutions.
[12:14] <Samuli^> mtholdenss, sure, it's possible with samba for instance.
[12:14] <chendo> mmm
[12:14] <mtholdenss> ok thanks
[12:14] <BlueEagle> chendo: and that's what you're looking to do, isn't it?
[12:14] <cry0gen> mtholdenss: if you're familiar with the itunes interface you'll really like songbird
[12:14] <cry0gen> but you wont find it in the ports.
[12:15] <cry0gen> bah, packages.
[12:15] <chendo> BlueEagle, i guess, but i don't have one of those
[12:15] <opexoc> I have another problem: My computer is connected to modem ( ppp0 interface ) ( my internet provider ) and thanks to ethernet card ( my home net ) to router ( which is connected to internet and to second computer in my net ). My problem is that I don't want to use the eth0 interface ( router ) to connect to internet. I only want to connect to system in my second computer. How can i do this ?
[12:15] <mtholdenss> yeh im more of a mac user, im actually on a mac right now
[12:15] <BlueEagle> chendo: How many machines on your network?
[12:15] <cry0gen> HiddenWolf: I know lol
[12:15] <cry0gen> ar x file.deb ;)
[12:15] <chendo> BlueEagle, 6ish
[12:16] <masterham> thanks for the info, i will catch you guys later,have fun!
[12:16] <cry0gen> masterham: np, ciao.
[12:16] <masterham> later
[12:16] <atm0sph> So anyone re: my resolution issue?
[12:16] <cry0gen> atm0sph: for what?
[12:17] <cry0gen> atm0sph: Monitor not working at the proper desktop resolution?
[12:17] <atm0sph> I can't get my desktop set to 1152x864 - it wont let me off 1024
[12:17] <cry0gen> any resolutions higher than that listed?
[12:17] <atm0sph> I manually edited the xorg.conf file and everything..
[12:17] <cry0gen> What video is it?
[12:17] <cry0gen> intel?
[12:17] <atm0sph> nvidia
[12:17] <cry0gen> hmmm
[12:17] <atm0sph> geforce 6600 gt
[12:17] <BlueEagle> chendo: That is a bit few to really need bind. However there's noting wrong with learning bind in any case.
[12:17] <atm0sph> I have it running in 3d mode
[12:17] <cry0gen> using nvidia driver or nv?
[12:17] <atm0sph> whats weird is I've gotten it to 1152, but it goes back for no reason
[12:17] <atm0sph> nvidia driver
[12:18] <cry0gen> Does your xorg log file show anything relating to the custom resolution you've set?
[12:18] <atm0sph> I couldn't get it working on two moniotors either..  but thatys another story
[12:18] <atm0sph> where do I check that log file?
[12:18] <atm0sph> /etc/X11/xorg.log?
[12:18] <chendo> BlueEagle, mmm, i should've just saved my old config
[12:18] <Jimmey> I've got the Dapper alternate .iso on my hard drive, but no CDs to burn it to - Can I somehow boot from this iso anyway?
[12:18] <atm0sph> no log files in /etc/X11
[12:19] <BlueEagle> chendo: You do take regular backups don't you? o.O
[12:19] <cry0gen> /var/log/Xorg.0.log atm0sph
[12:19] <xevil> atm0sph: check /var/log
[12:19] <habeeb> Greetings! Today I did something really smart :) I did a "rm -R *" to my ~, in my Debian :3 So I decided to give it a try to Ubuntu. From what I know there are 2 versions, dapper and breezy or something... When do I chose between them? ATM I'm downloading the ISO.
[12:20] <chendo> BlueEagle, i figured when i moved to ubuntu i'd do everything from scratch
[12:20] <BlueEagle> jimmey: in theory you can boot it using a floppy. Not sure how that works tho.
[12:20] <xevil> habeeb: dapper is the latest stable
[12:20] <Jimmey> habeeb, Dapper's the newer version
[12:20] <mtholdenss> habeeb get dapper
[12:20] <habeeb> I see.
[12:20] <atm0sph> yeah there's a log there
[12:20] <atm0sph> one sec
[12:21] <habeeb> Also, Ubuntu's APT is the same as Debian's?
[12:21] <cry0gen> habeeb: yes.
[12:21] <mtholdenss> www.releases.ubuntu.com/6.06.1
[12:21] <habeeb> Great,
[12:22] <habeeb> Also the ISO installation I'm downloading at this moment, is networkless?
[12:22] <Nameeater> when I get 'scanning the mirror' at the end of copying across the files, what is it doing?
[12:22] <mtholdenss> which iso are u downloading? dapper, breezy?
[12:22] <atm0sph> xevil: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21696
[12:23] <ompaul> habeeb, it supports networks - through ethernet and other methods, does your hardware work nicely with linux?
[12:23] <cry0gen> *wipes forehead*
[12:23] <habeeb> http://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso
[12:23] <cry0gen> thought a fubared my partition table
[12:23] <cry0gen> D:
[12:23] <habeeb> ompaul: yay
[12:24] <ompaul> !root > habeeb one crucial difference you sould read  page I am getting the bot to send you
[12:24] <habeeb> Ok.
[12:24] <atm0sph> xevil: any idea?
[12:24] <ompaul> !root > habeeb
[12:24] <habeeb> Got the query.
[12:24] <JohnFlux> Hey all
[12:25] <cry0gen> ello
[12:25] <JohnFlux> On dapper, x86_64, I can't install liblame-dev
[12:25] <habeeb> Yeah, I noticed that Ubuntu has a sudo fetich after some howtos in the forums.
[12:25] <JohnFlux> it says no candidates found
[12:25] <cry0gen> JohnFlux: hmmm./
[12:25] <habeeb> You dont really like su , eh?
[12:25] <JohnFlux> but that liblame0  replaces it
[12:25] <cry0gen> JohnFlux: and that "it will not be installed"
[12:25] <cry0gen> lol
[12:25] <fredl> Hmm, the KDE desktop in kubuntu-desktop functions now alright.
[12:26] <xevil> atm0sph: your /etc/X11/xorg.conf must not be correct
[12:26] <fredl> guess that's something personal :)
[12:26] <JohnFlux> cry0gen: it installs liblame0  fine, but then when I compile my app it says that -lmp3lame   isn't found
[12:26] <mtholdenss> yep thats that latest release but may i reccomend u download it via a torrent nor direct download if you are downloading direct make sure u have the correct md5 sum to check that its not corrupted...
[12:26] <habeeb> GNOME for great justice
[12:26] <cry0gen> hmmm
[12:26] <habeeb> mtholdenss: me?
[12:26] <mtholdenss> not*
[12:26] <cry0gen> JohnFlux: very odd.
[12:26] <cry0gen> Should have the lib.
[12:27] <cry0gen> liblame0-devel exist?
[12:27] <JohnFlux> cry0gen: nope
[12:27] <cry0gen> hmm.
[12:27] <habeeb> mtholdenss: I cant find the md5sum key anywhere in the download page.
[12:27] <atm0sph> xevil: hmmm...  I dont know what more I can change...
[12:28] <atm0sph> xevil: all I did was follow tutorials
[12:28] <mtholdenss> yes u habeen
[12:28] <mtholdenss> ill get u the md5 sum
[12:28] <Enselic> I have a binary that I would like to "install", I thought that /usr/local/sbin was the place to put "your own" binaries, but as a normal user I don't have write access there. Where is the best place to put my own binaires?
[12:28] <habeeb> Ok mtholdenss
[12:28] <JohnFlux> cry0gen: i'll try downloading it manually through the package search
[12:28] <habeeb> And then its: md5sum <isoname>.iso?
[12:28] <nox-Hand> how do I list what modules are running?
[12:28] <habeeb> Or there are some options too? :/
[12:28] <mtholdenss> http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06.1/MD5SUMS
[12:28] <kode> I have a question about installing ATI drivers if anyone is not busy.
[12:28] <JohnFlux> cry0gen: ... that seemed to have worked
[12:29] <mtholdenss> i downloaded directly and both corrupted and wrong md5 sum, so yea torrent way to go...
[12:29] <fredl> kode -  I may be able to help you but still have some issues myself, so go ahead and ask.
[12:29] <habeeb> Thanks mtholdenss , the command is md5sum without options
[12:29] <cry0gen> odd enough
[12:29] <OsirisX11> is there any easy disk encryption systems that abstract it completely from me and just let me log in like normal to unlock the disk?
[12:29] <mtholdenss> the command is md5sum without options? what you mean?
[12:29] <kode> Ok well i looked it up on the fourm and tryed installing seemed to work but i dout it did because full screen video still "laggs"
[12:29] <mtholdenss> no problem
[12:30] <habeeb> mtholdenss: The command to get the md5sum key and check it with the one you gave me is: md5sum <isoname>.iso?
[12:30] <fredl> OsirisX11, yes I believe there is. I wouldn't be able to tell you exactly how to do it and it's not really Ubuntu specific I think.
[12:30] <habeeb> Or I have to use options like: md5sum -o <isoname>.iso?
[12:30] <Enselic> Where should I put my personal binaries?
[12:30] <cry0gen> ahhh finally
[12:30] <cry0gen> after hours of work
[12:30] <OsirisX11> fredl: more info on that?
[12:30] <cry0gen> and I should have been to bed two hours ago
[12:30] <fredl> kode - did you use the 'ati' or the 'fglrx' driver?
[12:30] <cry0gen> the 500 gb low-level format finishes
[12:30] <cry0gen> x-x
[12:30] <kode> ati
[12:31] <mtholdenss> umm i just googled how to find md5 sum of a file and downloaded this dos utility... to do it, not sure about dos commands
[12:31] <atm0sph> exit
[12:31] <habeeb> ok mtholdenss
[12:31] <fredl> OsirisX11, not on the top of my head, sorry. google is your friend :)
[12:31] <nox-Hand> Where do I blacklist a module from loading in Ubuntu?
[12:31] <fredl> kode - Hmm, I am experiencing trouble with fglrx instead since ati didn't recognize my card....
[12:32] <cry0gen> nox-Hand: modules.d/blacklist
[12:32] <cry0gen> :)
[12:32] <cry0gen> in /etc/
[12:32] <nox-Hand> cry0gen: Thanks a lot :) (( I am used to rc.conf ))
[12:32] <cry0gen> ahh
[12:32] <cry0gen> genpoo?
[12:32] <kode> Well i have a ati control panel now but it has nothing to do with 3d setting in it
[12:32] <fredl> kode - could you do glxinfo|grep OpenGL ?
[12:32] <cry0gen> kode: type fglrxinfo
[12:33] <cry0gen> if it says Mesa.
[12:33] <cry0gen> you got a problem
[12:33] <cry0gen> if you have composite enabled
[12:33] <cry0gen> remove it from the config
[12:33] <cry0gen> if you have #load "dri"
[12:33] <cry0gen> uncomment it
[12:33] <cry0gen> restart gdm
[12:33] <cry0gen> :)
[12:33] <albacker> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel ? what's that dir ?  /usr/include ?!
[12:33] <kode> display: :0.0  screen: 0
[12:33] <kode> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[12:33] <kode> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[12:33] <kode> OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
[12:33] <cry0gen> Bingo.
[12:34] <fredl> yup, same thing I have.
[12:34] <albacker> can someone help me please ? What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel ? what's that dir ?  /usr/include ?!
[12:34] <cry0gen> I have ATI yada. yada. yada.
[12:34] <kode> thats the ATI 8.28.08 drivers
[12:34] <cry0gen> :)
[12:34] <fredl> kode - at least with the fglrx kernel module it seems to me there's a problem loading the kernel module.
[12:34] <ompaul> !enter
[12:34] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[12:34] <fredl> kode - aren't the default fglrx drivers for ubuntu version 8.25.xx?
[12:35] <cry0gen> fredl: He manually installed I assume
[12:35] <cry0gen> Which never over-writes the proper libGL.so.1.2 files.
[12:35] <cry0gen> kode: upload your xorg.conf somewhere so I can look at it.
[12:35] <kode> not sure did not really check just noticed my video lagging as if there was no 3d acceration so installed newest ATI drivers
[12:35] <fredl> hmm, unfortunately for me it's time to lunch right now :) you going to be around cry0gen?
[12:35] <cry0gen> fredl: for a bit
[12:36] <fredl> ok, maybe you can help me later.
[12:36] <fredl> ciao
[12:36] <cry0gen> should be asleep but just re installing ubuntu on my lab machine'
[12:37] <opexoc> Can you tell me why vim not coloured words when I open some *.c file ? Do I should install some package ?
[12:37] <ompaul> !away > mr3vil`off
[12:37] <cry0gen> opexoc: Have to have .vimrc properly configured to load the formatting for filetypes
[12:38] <ompaul> thanks
[12:38] <cry0gen> opexoc: http://database.sarang.net/study/vim/HOWTO/Vim-HOWTO-2.html
[12:38] <cry0gen> good page to start looking at for assistance with that
[12:38] <mr3vil> ompaul: thank u and sorry
[12:38] <ompaul> MrParanoia,  set it away quitely /away reason and then forever more it is good :)
[12:38] <ompaul> doh
[12:38] <ompaul> the tab monster caught me :(
[12:38] <cry0gen> ompaul: tab monster catches us all
[12:39] <opexoc> cry0gen: ok, but where is this file ? and could you send me content of your file ?
[12:39] <cry0gen> That's why I manually type all the screen names, cause too many people have nick's with the same two first letters
[12:39] <cry0gen> opexoc: /etc/vim/vimrc
[12:39] <cry0gen> :)
[12:40] <cry0gen> I have a locally configured vimrc in my ~/ directory .vimrc
[12:40] <TheGateKeeper> where are all the deamons started on bootup please folks?
[12:40] <opexoc> oh... ok and so do you have this file configured properly ?
[12:40] <cry0gen> opexoc: I would be glad to upload it, give me a moment.
[12:40] <rage> Is there a kill signal stronger than -9 ?
[12:40] <mnvl> kill -10
[12:40] <mjr> no
[12:40] <cry0gen> opexoc: try to wget http://www.c14n.org/.vimrc
[12:41] <rage> hrmmm
[12:41] <kode> cry0gen: would quoteing it to a fourm be ok?
[12:41] <cry0gen> rage: have a D process?
[12:41] <rage> yup, looks dead
[12:41] <cry0gen> rage: Won't be able to kill it.
[12:41] <cry0gen> type ps awfux | grep processname
[12:42] <cry0gen> bah, sorry ps awfux | less
[12:42] <cry0gen> find the process name and see what it's linked too, kill it's parent process and see if it goes away first.
[12:42] <cry0gen> If it does not you'll have to restart
[12:42] <rage> Yeah, D

[12:44] <opexoc> cry0gen: nice :)
[12:44] <hawkaloogie> rage, restart samba: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[12:44] <cry0gen> rage: You should be able too, yes. Do what hawkaloogie said, if that does not work, then you'll deffinately have to restart.
[12:44] <rage> I'm not running a samba server
[12:44] <Australite``> guys i am new to ubuntu and linux i need so much help !

[12:45] <cry0gen> kyja: x-x.
[12:45] <nox-Hand> I accidentally borked my sources.list - can anyone send me a working one? I currently just need it fresh or with multiverse/backports etc open
[12:45] <nox-Hand> Doesnt matter
[12:45] <Australite``> whats the best messenger for ubuntu ?
[12:45] <rage> umount -f path
[12:45] <Australite``> some thing with msn
[12:45] <kode> you get that cry0gen? i realize your help alot of people wondering if you missed it
[12:46] <Ace_NoOne> Australite``: Gaim?
[12:46] <Australite``> Ace_NoOne hmm dont like it much
[12:46] <cry0gen> nox-Hand: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper there is one on there.
[12:46] <nox-Hand> Australite``: depends, KDE users, use Kopete, GNOME, GAIM, if not, a MSN clone is aMSN. What protocol you want on?
[12:46] <Australite``> i tried to install amsn couldnt
[12:46] <kode> aMSN works well for MSN
[12:46] <nox-Hand> Thanks again cry0gen
[12:46] <cry0gen> nox-Hand: Not a problem.
[12:46] <Australite``> nox-Hand i dont know what protocol is !
[12:46] <cry0gen> nox-Hand: I am a searching, knowledgeable machine.
[12:47] <cry0gen> Pretty much, for the lack of a better explanation of what I do all day.
[12:47] <frogzoo> !easysources > nox-Hand
[12:47] <Nameeater> ohhhh you just beat me frogzoo ;)
[12:47] <Australite``> i cant install amsn
[12:47] <frogzoo> ;)
[12:47] <mnvl> Australite``, are you just using msn, or any other kind of chat network (a protocol is like msn, aim, ..)
[12:47] <cry0gen> haha, I wish I knew the commands for that bot, I wouldnt have to type out all this by hand.
[12:48] <Australite``> mnvl only msn
[12:48] <nox-Hand> Australite``: MSN, gtalk, skype, etc
[12:48] <opexoc> hey... I want to change my irc communicator. What do you recommend ?
[12:48] <Australite``> nox-Hand i am only interested in msn
[12:48] <dibblego> has anyone set up samba with guest ok = yes but you still have to authenticate to use the share?
[12:48] <kode> How do you go about registering your nick on this server?
[12:48] <cry0gen> opexoc: What are you currently using, Xchat?
[12:48] <Dimitris> Speaking of amsn is there a way to change the default dock icon into something else?
[12:48] <cry0gen> opexoc: What are you looking to use should be the better question to ask.
[12:48] <Australite``> yeah i dont like xchat too
[12:48] <opexoc> cry0gen: now gaim...
[12:49] <cry0gen> I prefer IRSSI, others prefer Kchat and a few others.
[12:49] <cry0gen> opexoc: Ahh, try xchat in that case.
[12:49] <cry0gen> A lot more easy to navigate thatn 'gaim'
[12:49] <opexoc> cry0gen: ok. thx
[12:49] <nox-Hand> Australite``: aMSN or GAIM or Kopete. For MSN style, use aMSN. For a good messenger, that does NOT support name-changing, gaim, and kopete if you want a good messenger, that is rather bloaty
[12:49] <cry0gen> Should be in the add/remove packages.
[12:49] <Naosz> kopete wont connect atm
[12:49] <Australite``> nox-Hand i cant install amsn for some reasons
[12:50] <cry0gen> well, msn won't connect on GAIM unless you have 2.x beta 3.1
[12:50] <cry0gen> Which I do not believe is standard with dapper/edgy yet./
[12:50] <Naosz> yeam I couldnt get gaim to work as well
[12:50] <Naosz> *yeah
[12:50] <dibblego> wtf? gaim connects to MSN since I can remember
[12:51] <cry0gen> dibblego: gaim.sf.net
[12:51] <cry0gen> Have a nice read, quite interesting./
[12:51] <cry0gen> Was causing all kinds of crashes hangs, etc.
[12:51] <Australite``> i think i should log on my ubuntu lol
[12:51] <nox-Hand> Australite``: sudo apt-get install amsn doesnt work?
[12:51] <nox-Hand> Hmn
[12:51] <cry0gen> This is my server, but I am just tunnled to it from my laptop.
[12:51] <Australite``> nox-Hand not some error comes up
[12:52] <atm0sph> oh nice
[12:52] <kode> cry0gen: you see that xorg.conf?
[12:52] <atm0sph> I got my resolution setup to the 1152 now - thanks for your help guys
[12:52] <cry0gen> kode: No i have not, re-link me, sorry/
[12:52] <Australite``> i will be back from my ubuntu
[12:52] <kode> cry0gen: http://forum.foreel.org/index.php?topic=132.0
[12:52] <nox-Hand> Australite``: join #noxhand and paste it to me
[12:52] <Naosz> nope Gaim isnt connecting.. Amsn works though
[12:53] <atm0sph> my GAIM has been crashing when MSN connects - I switched to AMSN Tho
[12:53] <cry0gen> kode: ok cool, now, upload Xorg.0.log from /var/log
[12:53] <Alex> atm0sph: If you have the encarta user on your contact list - that'll do it..
[12:53] <atm0sph> OH!
[12:54] <atm0sph> that's it!
[12:54] <atm0sph> alex thanks man!
[12:54] <opexoc_> cry0gen: ok... i am on xchat now... on first look it seems be better
[12:54] <Alex> atm0sph: :)
[12:54] <cry0gen> opexoc_: It is a prefered client of choice, I use IRSSI though, curses based.
[12:55] <kode> cry0gen: LoL that file is huge
[12:55] <OsirisX11> help! my trash bin refuses to be emtpied, what should i do?
[12:55] <cry0gen> kode you can dcc it to me
[12:55] <opexoc_> cry0gen: mhm... i want some graphic interface for now :)
[12:56] <cry0gen> :) yeah, takes a bit of getting used to
[12:56] <cry0gen> If you ever really want to get into command line whoring, read up on screen :)
[12:56] <cry0gen> That's what I live in basically and have for years.
[12:57] <kode> cry0gen: If my DCC will work...
[12:57] <cry0gen> kode: should.
[12:57] <Agent-47> 
[12:57] <fredl> cry0gen, I've recently manually installed the ATI 8.27.xx driver manually. That worked ok. Recently with the xorg problems, I thought maybe the 8.27.xx drivers were the problem so I tried going back to 8.25, however I can't get the fglrx kernel module loaded, so I get Mesa 3D. You have any ideas where I could begin troubleshooting this?
[12:57] <albacker> None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Player is suitable for your
[12:57] <albacker> running kernel.  Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for
[12:57] <albacker> your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [no] 
[12:57] <cry0gen> Unless you are nat'd behind a personal router.
[12:58] <opexoc_> cry0gen: it is not for me now...
[12:58] <kode> i am
[12:58] <cry0gen> fredl: Simple way to debug that.
[12:58] <fredl> cry0gen, insmod?
[12:58] <cry0gen> Usually get like 3-4 fglrx modules installed after doing all that
[12:58] <Shakezula> Has anyone in here successfully used icns2png?
[12:58] <cry0gen> cd /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/
[12:58] <kode> cry0gen: i posted most of it here http://forum.foreel.org/index.php?topic=132.0
[12:58] <kode> second post
[12:58] <cry0gen> When you get to that point find | grep fglrx.ko
[12:59] <cry0gen> The one in the drm folder can be deleted/removed.
[12:59] <opexoc_> cry0gen: is xchat open-source software ? and what is like with IRSSI ?
[01:00] <cry0gen> The one in volatile should be the correct one
[01:00] <cry0gen> opexoc_: Both are.
[01:00] <OsirisX11> help! my trash bin refuses to be emtpied, what should i do?
[01:00] <kode> cry0gen: i see alot of errors :/
[01:00] <fredl> cry0gen, done that already. So now there's the three files in /lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.15-26-686/fglrx/
[01:00] <Schalken> is it possible to move the START of an ext3 partition?
[01:00] <cry0gen> fredl: Which one does it fail to load?
[01:00] <cry0gen> the one you just specified?
[01:01] <cry0gen> remove the others, and type depmod -a
[01:01] <cry0gen> then modprobe fglrx
[01:01] <cry0gen> see if that does the trick
[01:01] <cry0gen> It might also be the fact that either A) radeon is loaded and has drm module loaded as well.
[01:02] <Schalken> OsirisX11: open your home folder, type Ctrl+H to show hidden files, then delete the folder named ".Trash" to empty your trash.
[01:02] <fredl> cry0gen I believe the one in linux-restricted, I tried simply insmod'ing that one and I get a insmod: error inserting './fglrx.mod.o': -1 Unknown symbol in module
[01:02] <cry0gen> Which in that case hop down to a shell, sudo su, init 3 rmmod drm radeon
[01:02] <cry0gen> Ahh, that is a problem.
[01:02] <cry0gen> fredl: try loading the volatile file.
[01:02] <cry0gen> should be in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile/fglrx.ko
[01:02] <fredl> cry0gen, got that on: fredl@positron:/lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.15-26-686/fglrx$ insmod ./fglrx .mod.o BTW
[01:03] <cry0gen> fredl: try to insmod /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile/fglrx.ko
[01:03] <fredl> cry0gen - I have no fglrx files in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile.
[01:03] <cry0gen> hmmm
[01:04] <Schalken> how can I move the start of my ext3 partition?
[01:04] <fredl> which package should it be in?
[01:04] <cry0gen> Schalken: What do you mean?
[01:04] <fredl> fredl@positron:/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/volatile$ dpkg -S fglrx.ko
[01:04] <fredl> dpkg: *fglrx.ko* not found.
[01:04] <fredl> it's not in any .deb that I have installed I think.
[01:04] <cry0gen> fredl: hold on really fast
[01:04] <Schalken> cry0gen: I want to free some space before the partition, but Gparted only lets me free space that is after it.
[01:04] <cry0gen> Schalken: if you try to free space in front of it, you are sort of 'sol'
[01:04] <fredl> cry0gen - I might have removed that one myself thinking it was something left behind from the manual install.
[01:05] <cry0gen> resizing the partion from the begining is a bad idea.
[01:05] <Schalken> cry0gen: why?
[01:05] <cry0gen> Schalken: can corrupt the ext3 journal pretty badly.
[01:05] <Schalken> cry0gen: have a look here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=244261
[01:06] <cry0gen> All I know is i've tried it myself and corrupted tons of partitions that way.
[01:06] <mRCUTEO> anyone knows how to check an IP reverse dns in Linux machine?
[01:06] <cry0gen> So in practice, I never do it.
[01:06] <cry0gen> Data loss esp to me, is not my friend.
[01:06] <fredl> !search fglrx.ko
[01:06] <fredl> hmm
[01:06] <mRCUTEO> anyone knows how to check an IP reverse dns in ubuntu?
[01:06] <cry0gen> fredl: I just looked for it, hold on shortly, I will find it.
[01:06] <fredl> that doesn't work...
[01:06] <dibblego> why do I have to authenticate to my samba share when guest ok = yes?
[01:07] <fredl> n/p cry0gen, just searching myself as well :)
[01:07] <cry0gen> fredl: got an idea for you
[01:07] <fredl> ok.. :)
[01:07] <fredl> which is?
[01:07] <cry0gen> sudo apt-get install module-assistant fglrx-kernel-source
[01:07] <longbean> mRCUTEO: at the command line: "dig -x <ip address>"
[01:07] <Schalken> cry0gen: so the only way would be to backup, delete the partition and make a fresh install???
[01:07] <cry0gen> When you're done with that, sudo module-assistant
[01:08] <afief> When trying to run synaptic i get the following error: synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:08] <cry0gen> fredl: from there select update tab down to "Ok" press enter, from there it'll update etc. Then, after that, press down arrow to "Prepare" tab to "OK" press enter
[01:09] <fredl> cry0gen - that's part of the manual installation way, I remember that much, ok, done...
[01:09] <cry0gen> Next, you'll want to down arrow to "Select" find "[ ]  fglrx-kernel          ATI binary kernel module"
[01:09] <kane77> hi... anybody can help me install photoshop? i run the installer (with wine), but it needs to unpack somewhere... how do I specify where (it doesnt like the linux path /media/hdc1/  ...)
[01:09] <cry0gen> press space bar to select it, etc, build it.
[01:09] <cry0gen> Proceed with install
[01:09] <cry0gen> reboot your machine.
[01:09] <afief> kane77: use windows path names
[01:09] <cry0gen> Module should be properly loaded.
[01:10] <cry0gen> actually before you reboot sudo depmod -a
[01:10] <fredl> ok, updated and prepared... however, I cannot select fglrx-kernel as it's not there.
[01:10] <Schalken> kane77: you need to provide it with a C:/blahblah path. Wine will convert it to write to wherever you have configured the virtual C drive to be. usually at ~/.wine/drive_c or something.
[01:10] <cry0gen> hmm
[01:10] <fredl> weird
[01:10] <cry0gen> I think one of my memory sticks is going bad, my lab machine is nuking itself
[01:11] <kane77> Schalken, oh! so that explains a lot thanx
[01:11] <cry0gen> fredl: Weird, re-install fglrx-kernel-source then re-launch module-assistant
[01:12] <afief> When i'm trying to run Synaptic it says i'm missing  libvte.so.4
[01:12] <blocky> sudo apt-get install -f
[01:12] <fredl> still same thing cry0gen, apt-get install --reinstall fglrx-kernel-source and no go, not selectable. I'm just weirded out by this!
[01:12] <blocky> maybe?
[01:12] <Schalken> afief: best post on the forums, your answer could be lengthy ;)
[01:12] <cry0gen> that's a bit odd.
[01:13] <fredl> cry0gen, yeah I really think something stuck around after my 8.27 manual install and I can't freaking find it...
[01:13] <Schalken> afief: my two cents: open the live cd, look for the file and copy it across.
[01:13] <cry0gen> fredl: Yeah, it's sounding like it
[01:13] <afief> Schalken, will try that after seeing what the guys at the forums say
[01:14] <opexoc> What does  "sudo apt-get install -f" make ?
[01:14] <afief> schalken:oh turned out it's a sticky in the forums
[01:15] <fredl> xorg recognizes the driver and the card just fine but in Xorg.0.log: [drm]  failed to load kernel module "fglrx"
[01:15] <cry0gen> opexoc: forces package install from a failed install
[01:15] <jimmy_> where can i get acidrip and mplayer? I dont see it in repos...???
[01:15] <QwertyManiac> I accidentally deleted my document folder in ReiserFS, how do I recover it ?
[01:15] <cry0gen> fredl: dpkg --purge fglrx-kernel-source && apt-get install fglrx-kernel-source
[01:15] <fredl> jimmy_ read ubuntuguide.org
[01:15] <anemiat1> do u know if we can get the slash in the start up menu as in SUSE?
[01:16] <cry0gen> anemiat1: got a screenshot of it?
[01:16] <jimmy_> !ubuntuguide.org
[01:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntuguide.org - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:16] <fredl> cry0gen, no go :/
[01:17] <cry0gen> fredl: hmm.
[01:17] <cry0gen> Didn't even find it?
[01:17] <fredl> nope.
[01:17] <fredl> well it reinstalled fglrx-kernel-source obviously
[01:17] <cry0gen> fredl: wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15/fglrx-kernel-source_8.25.18+2.6.15.11-3_i386.deb
[01:17] <QwertyManiac> any undelete tool for ReiserFS ? :(
[01:17] <cry0gen> dpkg that
[01:18] <opexoc> cry0gen: but, I can't see in this command any name of some package so is there some global option or this act on last package which was to install ?
[01:18] <fredl> cryogen - shouldnt that apt-get install something in /usr/src/modules?
[01:18] <anemiat1> cry0gen: not really I was using it long time ago. Its like as soon as you start typing it the rest of the applications in the menu grey out pointing into the right direction. Its in SUse 10.1 really cool
[01:18] <fredl> fredl@positron:/usr/src/modules$ ls
[01:18] <fredl> fredl@positron:/usr/src/modules$
[01:18] <fredl> ok, just /usr/src/fglrx-kernel-source.tar.gz is in the package I guess
[01:20] <fredl> cry0gen - did that (wget/dpkg) and it still does not show up in the modules selection list.
[01:20] <cry0gen> woah.
[01:20] <cry0gen> fredl: now that's some funky stuff.
[01:21] <fredl> yeah beats the hell out of me, dunno what I've done to cause that.
[01:21] <oyvind> Anyone who knows if there are there any un-official updates to the nvidia-{kernel,glx} packages ? 8774 is released ..
[01:22] <fredl> wait....
[01:23] <QwertyManiac> :(
[01:23] <samern> hi
[01:23] <fredl> cry0gen - haha, manual installation instructions for 8.27 include DISABLING fglrx modules in  /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[01:23] <QwertyManiac> 8774 has support for xorg 7.1 w00t
[01:23] <fredl> I hope it's not going to be that simple and stupid
[01:23] <samern> a lot of packages i'm trying to install via apt-get "cannot be authenticated" =S
[01:23] <DBO> QwertyManiac, just make sure you dont confuse that with AIGLX support
[01:23] <Ribs> woot!
[01:24] <fredl> hmm, apparently not
[01:24] <samern> apt-get install zlib1g-dev "cannot be authenticated"    =S
[01:24] <Placid> Greetings
[01:24] <samern> what shall I do ?
[01:25] <cry0gen> fredl: figured it out?
[01:25] <cry0gen> lol
[01:25] <cry0gen> fredl: That might explain it
[01:25] <fredl> cry0gen, nope that didn't make the driver selectable in modules-assistant yet, but lemme reboot after a depmod -a
[01:25] <fredl> brb
[01:26] <samern> HELP, a lot of packages i'm trying to install via apt-get "cannot be authenticated" =S {for example zlib1g-dev}
[01:27] <samern> anyone?
[01:27] <GyrosGeier> hi
[01:27] <cry0gen> samern: Might need to re-add the gpg key
[01:27] <Huh1> hey can anyone of you suggest me a good mp3 id tagger?
[01:27] <GyrosGeier> there are rumours of a broken xserver-xorg update in dapper -- which version do I need to set on "forbid"?
[01:28] <fredl> cry0gen, no luck :(
[01:28] <cry0gen> GyrosGeier: apparently it was xserver-xorg-core (latest)
[01:28] <cry0gen> fredl: hmmm.
[01:28] <QwertyManiac> its been fixed i think?
[01:28] <[daedalus] > GyrosGeier: x was broken, but they fixed it
[01:28] <QwertyManiac> yeah
[01:28] <cry0gen> QwertyManiac: yeah
[01:29] <QwertyManiac> I was down with it... lol
[01:29] <GyrosGeier> is ...10.4 good, or bad?
[01:29] <[daedalus] > I had the problem too, only got console.   I did a sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade and a reboot and it was fixed
[01:29] <fredl> daedalus - then you were lucky :)
[01:29] <afief> GyrosGeir: i think it was 10.3 but don't take my word on that
[01:29] <[daedalus] > I know
[01:29] <GyrosGeier> okay
[01:29] <samern> cry0gen: can you explain more, please?
[01:30] <fredl> afief - yeah 10.3 was broken.
[01:30] <npster> What is the program that makes .cur files ?
[01:30] <npster> on Linux
[01:30] <fredl> 10.4 is okay again.
[01:30] <GyrosGeier> cool, then I'll do the upgrade
[01:30] <GyrosGeier> thanks a lot
[01:30] <[daedalus] > found some blog posting about it, got home, started my workstation and I had the probleem too :/
[01:30] <cry0gen> samern: most repositories have a specific gpg key assigned to them
[01:30] <QwertyManiac> Huh1, try EasyTag
[01:30] <cry0gen> which mirror was it trying to download the files from
[01:30] <monkeyhead> hello everyone, someone here got experience with dosbox? where the heck does dosbox install too ??? i just cant find the main directory
[01:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> 13:30:31 -!- Irssi: #ubuntu: Total of 819 nicks [0 ops, 0 halfops, 0 voices, 819 normal] 
[01:30] <afief> fredl: yeah had to remember this stuff, after X broke i tried to use an older config files, which had no keyboard setting, so i had terminal w/o keyboard, and no way to access the system
[01:30] <Huh1> QwertyManiac:  thanks I'll give it a try
[01:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> oh my gosh,quite a lot of people here!
[01:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> i've got selections copy from debian and now i switched to ubuntu. how can i make use of it?
[01:30] <Diiba> Hi
[01:30] <samern> cry0gen: i just did apt-get install <packagename>
[01:31] <cry0gen> which mirror did it download it from?
[01:31] <fredl> afief - well I pretty much broke my whole system coz I thought that fglrx driver went broken :/
[01:31] <cry0gen> us.archive.ubuntu.com?
[01:31] <fredl> afief - and I still don't have my fglrx driver back to work again.
[01:31] <Diiba> How can you find whats your highest resolution?
[01:31] <samern> cry0gen: I don't know, there's no mention of the mirror
[01:31] <QwertyManiac> Huh1, it should be on synaptic, I found it on Ubuntuguide.org actually :)
[01:31] <Huh1> found it
[01:32] <fredl> that xorg breakage certainly was bad PR for ubuntu, it even made some newsarticles.
[01:32] <afief> fredl: same here, i had to download knoppix(which wouldn't boot unless i remove most of the hardware detection) and replace the messed up xorg.conf again
[01:32] <afief> fredl: www.linux.com although my friend was amazed when she heard that it was fixed withing 2 hours
[01:32] <cry0gen> samern: wget http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu/dists/dapper/Release.gpg - | apt-key add -
[01:33] <fredl> afief, oh well, everybody can make mistakes.
[01:33] <samern> ok, thanks
[01:33] <DeeTahPanLtah> err... i've got selections copy from debian and now i switched to ubuntu. how can i make use of it?
[01:33] <afief> fredl: not blaming everybody. i certainly have less mistakes here than i had on MS software
[01:33] <cry0gen> I know one of these things has to be bad
[01:33] <cry0gen> that or it's a fried cable.
[01:33] <cry0gen> And or my motherboard went south.
[01:34] <cry0gen> afief: Yeah...
[01:34] <cry0gen> I am about to throw this thing out the window.
[01:34] <cry0gen> It's Pass 50% right now
[01:35] <fredl> cry0gen, I'm just going to go ahead and do the manual install for 8.28.8 on the Wiki again and see if that'll work.
[01:35] <cry0gen> fredl: It should.
[01:35] <afief> i once had a similar problem, it turned out to be one of the SATA cables... it made a LOT of trouble to find it though
[01:35] <OsirisX11> can anyone tell me what is the easiest way to install the latest nvidia driver,  1.0-8774?
[01:35] <Diiba> How can you find whats your highest resolution?
[01:35] <cry0gen> afief: Yeah, I hope it's not the ide cable.
[01:35] <cry0gen> I will be thoroughly fuled
[01:35] <Diiba> :S Doenst anyone know?
[01:35] <cry0gen> and I will be forced to set ablaze to the cable.
[01:35] <cry0gen> Diiba: ?
[01:35] <OsirisX11> nevermind found the answer
[01:36] <Diiba> Ye?
[01:36] <OsirisX11> http://www.albertomilone.eu/europeo/nvidia_scripts1.html
[01:36] <cry0gen> Doesnt anyone know what?
[01:36] <fredl> cry0gen, if you are forced to burn the cable, don't do it at home.
[01:36] <afief> diiba: i think it depends both on your screen AND graphic card... not exactly sure how the new hardware fares on this though...
[01:36] <cry0gen> I do it all the time. haha.
[01:36] <Diiba> Sorry my english isnt very good.
[01:36] <fredl> cry0gen, use a flamethrower to make sure it is REALLY gone or it'll come back to haunt you.
[01:36] <cry0gen> fredl: We took a hard drive out skeet shooting last weekend.
[01:36] <afief> diiba: maybe you should just try it out
[01:36] <cry0gen> Was quite fun
[01:37] <cry0gen> 'PUll!"
[01:37] <cry0gen> Platters flew everywhere, was pretty amazing to watch.
[01:37] <fredl> mwuhahaha
[01:37] <cry0gen> 10Gauge elephant rifle, turnd that hard drive into shards.
[01:37] <fredl> I believe it.
[01:37] <cry0gen> haha
[01:38] <fredl> I always have to be carefull when I open up my PC box, it's usually aboout the same time my frustration levels peak, so I ask my wife to remove herself from the room.
 is a 200 GB hd harder to smash than a 200 MB? </sarcasm>
[01:38] <cry0gen> afief: heh
[01:38] <Diiba> So I'm going to buy this 1024x1280 tft screen, but I'm not feeling very safe with the reso, becouse I have an intel integrated graphcard from year 2000 or something so Is there anyway to get the highest resolution, that the chipset supports?
[01:38] <cry0gen> afief: http://www.c14n.org/WD1600.jpg
[01:39] <afief> cry0gen: RIP poor thing....
[01:39] <cry0gen> haha
[01:39] <cry0gen> 160 GB sata2 drive
[01:39] <QwertyManiac> Diiba, Get a graphic card for big screens
[01:39] <cry0gen> Death: Electricution by failed MOLEX connector
[01:39] <QwertyManiac> old ones wont do
[01:40] <afief> diiba: my intel chipset from 98 used to support 1280x960 i think....
[01:40] <DeeTahPanLtah> guys,ive decided to switch from debian to ubuntu. i've got selections list backed up,how do i make use of it?
[01:40] <Diiba> K ty.
[01:40] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: dpkg --set-selections
[01:40] <DeeTahPanLtah> tried
[01:40] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: and then dselect install
[01:40] <DeeTahPanLtah> ah
[01:41] <afief> what is a selections list? /me noob
[01:41] <cry0gen> afief: usefull :)
[01:41] <cry0gen> afief: google it and be amazed.
[01:41] <shawarma> afief: try 'dpkg --get-selections' in a terminal
[01:41] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: YOU ARE GOD!
[01:41] <cry0gen> damnit
[01:41] <DeeTahPanLtah> works!
[01:41] <DeeTahPanLtah> ;D
[01:41] <cry0gen> two cigerettes left x-x
[01:41] <fredl> well when I reboot I might have fglrx 8.28.8 back :P
[01:41] <samern> shawarma djej aw lahmeh ?
[01:42] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: --set-selections just makes a not in the database, that you'd like to have this package installed. dselect fulfills your wishes.
[01:42] <afief> guys i love you:D after setting /home to a seperate partition this was the only thing i still needed to be safe after a system failure:D
[01:42] <shawarma> samern: Say what?
[01:42] <shawarma> samern: O did I just answer your question?
[01:42] <cry0gen> afief: haha, yeah, my home isn't on my machine
[01:42] <cry0gen> x-x
[01:42] <samern> shawarma: i thought you were lebanese
[01:42] <cry0gen> NFS mounted from my Network server
[01:42] <shawarma> samern: Nope. Danish.
[01:42] <cry0gen> which is Raid5 750GB Seagates
[01:42] <opexoc> I have already downloaded the kernel source of linux version 1.0 :).  I am wondering is it possible to install it on my machine ?
[01:43] <samern> shawarma: oh ok, my bad
[01:43] <afief> cry0gen: how did you do THAT? i might need to install linux for a local school and would like the accounts to be on servers
[01:43] <shawarma> opexoc: If you have an IDE disk, then probably.
[01:43] <cry0gen> afief: Read up on LDAP/NFS
[01:43] <cry0gen> You will love it :)
[01:43] <cry0gen> the hardest part of it is configuring the LDAP end
[01:43] <cry0gen> (server side) after that the clients are a breeze
[01:43] <opexoc> shawarma: I have,
[01:44] <afief> cry0gen: and this works with ubuntu or will i have to go debian?
[01:44] <cry0gen> afief: works on ubuntu
[01:44] <josh__> whats up people
[01:44] <fredl> cry0gen, flawless, got 8.28.8 back running. Bizarre eh?
[01:44] <shawarma> opexoc: Then you should be able to install it. You might have a hard time finding the user space utilities to match it, though.
[01:44] <QwertyManiac> my 6681 is shown in Device manager when i connect it via cable USB, but how do I acess and use something like Nokia PC Suite on it ?
[01:44] <cry0gen> fredl: indeed.
[01:44] <josh__> question, i need to see a log of all the ftp transactions on my server for the last 3 weeks.... where would i find a log file?
[01:44] <cry0gen> afief: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-10187.html usefull
[01:44] <josh__> nevermind, i found it :)
[01:45] <samern> cry0gen: i'm getting " gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. "
[01:45] <cry0gen> hmmmmm
[01:45] <cry0gen> odd.
[01:45] <fredl> cry0gen, what you *might* have missed in the module-assistant thingie is that I had to module-assistant build the module first.
[01:45] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: its about to remove ubuntu-desktop,is that alright?
[01:45] <cry0gen> Damnit, has to be IDE cables.
[01:45] <DanTesS> hi all
[01:45] <DeeTahPanLtah> yeah,hi
[01:45] <agt> hi how do i get a process to start automatically?
[01:45] <cry0gen> fredl: haha yeah
[01:45] <cry0gen> oops
[01:45] <cry0gen> D:
[01:45] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Well.. ubuntu-dekstop is just a meta package.
[01:45] <fredl> :P
[01:45] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: So nothing will break if it's not there.
[01:45] <samern> cry0gen: i'm getting " gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. "
[01:46] <cry0gen> samern: I saw
[01:46] <samern> oops
[01:46] <opexoc> shawarma: did you install this version on your machine ever ?
[01:46] <samern> =$
[01:46] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: okay... i heard it'll be messed up if i will install kde without installing kubuntu-desktop metapackage,right?
[01:46] <Knut> hello.. anybody here who can help me with lame?
[01:46] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: What you probably want to do is let it remove it, let dselect finish, and then install ubuntu-dekstop again afterwards.
[01:46] <DeeTahPanLtah> or maybe kubuntu-desktop? i prefer kde
[01:46] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Ah, right.
[01:46] <afief> Knut: state the nature of your lame emergency
[01:47] <DeeTahPanLtah> will ubuntu-desktop be needed then?
[01:47] <cry0gen> ok
[01:47] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Well, I'm not 100% sure about kubuntu-desktop, but it should just be a meta-package (do you know what that means?).
[01:47] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: No, ubuntu-desktop is not needed if you plan to run kubuntu.
[01:47] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: i suppose so. package which downloads another packages? ;p
[01:47] <fredl> neway, anybody got some decent mplayer understanding? I've been watching TV using the command mplayer tv://"60" -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:chanlist=europe-west:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=PAL
[01:47] <afief> shawarma: kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop are meta packages
[01:47] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Pretty much, yes.
[01:47] <wheelswitch> what is the ls command that shows where all your data is?
[01:47] <Knut> i want to reencode my mp3 to 128kb/s bitrate. but lame dont transfer the id3 tags... :(
[01:47] <shawarma> wheelswitch: du?
[01:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> wheelswitch: ( cd / ; ls * ) is what i'd do
[01:48] <DanTesS> I'm a real beginner with ubuntu, I start yesterday, So I need your help sometimes, I hope you'll be understanding =)
[01:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> am i right ?;p
[01:48] <DanTesS> (excuse my language, I'm french)
[01:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> DanTesS: what's the problem?
[01:48] <Rookie-> !F
[01:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about F - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:48] <Rookie-> !france
[01:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about france - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:48] <shawarma> wheelswitch: What is it exactly you want to find out?
[01:48] <wheelswitch> what folders are big
[01:48] <fredl> DanTesS, you can't help being French, don't worry we won't hold it against you.
[01:48] <shawarma> wheelswitch: sudo du / | sort -g
[01:48] <DanTesS> DeeTahPanLtah > no problem for the moment, I just come here in order to say "hello" :)
[01:49] <DeeTahPanLtah> wheelswitch: those who contain binary files i guess ;)
[01:49] <TLE> DanTesS: We've all been beginners ;)
[01:49] <Knut> alief do you know what to do?
[01:49] <DeeTahPanLtah> DanTesS: yeah,hi then. but if 800 people here say hi,it'd be just overspammed.
[01:49] <afief> Knut: I think i read once that good old amaroK does the job, didn't try it for myself though(note: if they are less than 128 you won't gain any quality, only waste disk space)
[01:51] <Knut> i have no problems with a quality like 128 or 64 kb/s
[01:51] <fredl> cry0gen, if you want I'll help corruptkode with his prob :)
[01:51] <DeeTahPanLtah> im just wondering,is default kernel tweaker properly here?
[01:51] <DeeTahPanLtah> tweaked*
[01:51] <CorruptKode> I need all the help i can get aprently
[01:51] <CorruptKode> lol
[01:51] <Knut> but some of my files are bigger than 320 kb/s.. so i want to reencode them
[01:51] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: for what?
[01:51] <afief> Knut: i meant unless the original has higher quality than 128 you are wasting time and disk space
[01:52] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: for example,i686 compatibility or nfs support
[01:52] <fredl> CorruptKode, yeah but cry0gen is helping lots of people at the same time :)
[01:52] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: There's a -686 kernel which you may or may not have.
[01:52] <afief> Knut: maybe this helps? http://lame.sourceforge.net/doc/html/id3.html
[01:53] <Knut> thanks, i read it
[01:53] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: okay,and if i want to build my kernel on my own (gonna patch it to add bootlogo),can i somehow get rid of ubuntu binaries?
[01:53] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: About NFS, the tweaking is mostly in the mount options.
[01:53] <tylersmith> WHen I try to upgrade from Breezy to Dapper using the update manager, the upgrade fails because of bugs. Is there another way to upgrade, such as with an ISO image? Will it remove all my files?
[01:53] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Sure. usplash is not good enough?
[01:54] <josh__> ok i lied, i didn't find it
[01:54] <borfast> hi everyone
[01:54] <DeeTahPanLtah> didnt try it out yet
[01:54] <josh__> anyone have proftp?
[01:54] <Knut> mhhh.. but how can i read the old id3 tags?
[01:54] <DeeTahPanLtah> or is it this thingy that loads once startup? ;D
[01:54] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: It's enable by default. It's the thing that shows you the ubuntu logo while booting.
[01:54] <Knut> cause i filled all id3 tags in my mp3 and lame doesnt transfer it into the new file
[01:55] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: alright,any way to customize it? ;p
[01:55] <josh__> brb
[01:55] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: Sure. Gimme a sec.
[01:55] <DeeTahPanLtah> you're awesome.
[01:55] <afief> Hey everybody, how do you read ID3 tags out of an MP3 in command line?
[01:55] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: I have my moments. :-)
[01:56] <shawarma> afief: id3v2
[01:56] <DeeTahPanLtah> shawarma: sorry,gotta eat dinner. please,pm me with a link... brb
[01:56] <shawarma> DeeTahPanLtah: sure
[01:56] <afief> shawarma: is that a program?
[01:56] <shawarma> afief: Yup.
[01:57] <shawarma> afief: id3v2 - A command line id3v2 tag editor
[01:57] <afief> Knut: here you go budy:) use id3v2 as our friend here told you;)
[01:57] <shawarma> afief: either that or mp3info
[01:57] <borfast> guys, I'm having some serious trouble setting up a virtual host with Apache2... I created a new virtual host configuration under /etc/apache2/sites-available, enabled it with "a2ensite sitename", added a line with "127.0.0.1 sitename" in /etc/hosts but now everytime I access http://localhost, I get the site I configured with that virtual host. can someone help me out of this, please?
[01:57] <afief> Thanks shawarma king, come over and i'll invite you to some shawarma
[01:58] <shawarma> borfast: It's actually quite simple.
[01:58] <shawarma> borfast: When you enable your first virtualhost, apache changes it behaviour somewhat.
[01:58] <fredl> borfast - that's really a generic Apache question however.
[01:58] <GyrosGeier> hi
[01:59] <shawarma> borfast: All requests are now treated as requests to a virtualhost.
[01:59] <GyrosGeier> is there a backports repository for dapper?
[01:59] <shawarma> borfast: The default is the first virtualhost.
[01:59] <cry0gen> ok, now that is crap
[01:59] <fredl> GyrosGeier, yes.
[01:59] <cry0gen> I changed Cables
[01:59] <cry0gen> tested the drive
[01:59] <fredl> cry0gen, now it works? :)
[01:59] <cry0gen> tested the memory
[01:59] <shawarma> borfast: makes sense?
[01:59] <cry0gen> nothing is broken
[01:59] <borfast> shawarma, fredl: but I did exactly the same thing on my home computer a few weeks ago and it worked like a charm... I think... at least I don't recall having this problem.
[01:59] <cry0gen> it still seg faults
[01:59] <cry0gen> with preempt_count 2 x-x
[02:00] <borfast> shawarma, then I need to enable the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default virtual host, is that it?
[02:00] <cry0gen> fredl: nope
[02:00] <shawarma> borfast: borfast Did you perhaps disable the default virtualhost?
[02:00] <cry0gen> borfast: yes
[02:00] <shawarma> borfast: Yes.
[02:00] <Knut> mhhh.. but i want to write the id3 tags automatically.. while encoding
[02:00] <borfast> ok, I'll enable it (which I think I had already done but I'll give it another try)
[02:00] <Knut> so lame should read out the id3 tags from the old file and write it in the new one
[02:00] <shawarma> borfast: ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[02:01] <afief> Knut: make a simple shell script for it, shouldn't be too hard
[02:01] <Knut> i never made a shell script before
[02:01] <shawarma> borfast: That was, the default should always be the first configured virtualhost.
[02:01] <cry0gen> haha
[02:01] <shawarma> borfast: if in doubt, try 'apache2 -S' from the commandline.
[02:02] <javierito> wenas
[02:02] <fredl> Knut - good moment to start :) open a new file, say, id3.sh
[02:02] <javierito> alguien sabe como puedo scanear las ips que hay en una red local
[02:02] <javierito> osea saber las ips existentes?
[02:02] <afief> Knut: do you know C or any other programming language? if yes then it will be a 30 minutes trip for you
[02:02] <fredl> Knut, make the first line: #!/bin/bash
[02:02] <shawarma> javierito: nmap
[02:02] <Knut> only i little bit python
[02:02] <shawarma> !espanol
[02:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about espanol - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:02] <shawarma> !spanish
[02:02] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[02:02] <Knut> and php..
[02:02] <cry0gen> wonder if my cpu is going bad :|
[02:03] <javierito> shawarma asias
[02:03] <shawarma> javierito: dn.
[02:03] <cry0gen> time to run CPU burn
[02:03] <afief> Knut: shell script saved me LOADS of time(how much time does it take to convert 50 SVG into greyscale PNGs? answer: 3 minutes with shell scripts)
[02:03] <fredl> CPU burn.. hehe
[02:03] <josh__> back
[02:03] <josh__> ok
[02:03] <josh__> anyone got proftp?
[02:03] <fredl> josh__, not me
[02:03] <Rookie-> nope, ftp is evol
[02:03] <borfast> shawarma, as I thought, the default virtualhost was already enabled but it still doesn't work, so I must be doing something else wrong :\
[02:03] <Knut> yes, but i thought there would be an easier way.. :(
[02:04] <afief> Knut: well php is like C if i remember correctly
[02:04] <shawarma> borfast: /msg me the output from 'apache2 -S'
[02:04] <Knut> so, i first have to install id3v2
[02:04] <afief> Knut: come on buddy it is easy:)
[02:04] <shawarma> afief: Sure. Only different. :)
[02:04] <bassy61> i'm running xubuntu, and my ip has changed, now my apache doesn't work, does anyone know where to set the new ip info. for apache?
[02:05] <shawarma> bassy61: Apache doesn't care what your IP is unless you made it so..
[02:05] <afief> shawarma: well, i wouldn't know what to do if i were running windows and my program didn't transfer ID3 tags automatically....
[02:05] <cry0gen> fredl: haha this is so anoying
[02:05] <cry0gen> I cannot even complete a dpkg --configure -a without a preempt
[02:05] <rdz> hi all. how can i close all sockets on a certain port? i cannot start a server anymore, because it says the address is already in use.
[02:05] <shawarma> afief: Sure, I was just responding to your "php is like C" statement. PHP is just like C. Only different.
[02:05] <josh__> will grep search in a tar'ed up file?
[02:06] <josh__> or am i going to have to untar my logs to find the data i want?
[02:06] <Rookie-> lol shawarma
[02:06] <shawarma> rdz: sudo netstat -lpn | grep <portnumber>
[02:06] <shawarma> rdz: The far right columns shows you what is listening on it.
[02:06] <afief> shawarma: a litle bit... if someone grasps the basics of programming it's quite easy to jump into scripting
[02:06] <Nameeater> josh__: untar I would have thought
[02:07] <fredl> cry0gen, that sounds pretty severe :/
[02:07] <cry0gen> fredl: yeah
[02:07] <cry0gen> there is a post of it on the ubuntu launchpad
[02:07] <bassy61> ah, ic, thanks for the response, i'm getting this message through webmin " The Apache root directory /etc/apache does not exist. " ?, itseemed to be working before?
[02:07] <longbean> josh__: .tar, tar.gz or .tar.bz2?
[02:07] <shawarma> afief: Sure. I was trying to make a joke. It didn't go too well.
[02:07] <fredl> cry0gen, opened up your box and firmly seated all memory chips, cards, connectors 'n stuff?
[02:07] <cry0gen> yeah
[02:07] <josh__> tar.gz
[02:08] <cry0gen> i just ran memtest with 100% pass
[02:08] <cry0gen> smartmon shows drives at 100%
[02:08] <longbean> josh__: use zgrep
[02:08] <afief> shawarma: guess i have to recompile my humor package then...
[02:08] <cry0gen> (brand new IDE drives) sadly.
[02:08] <cry0gen> fuck i need to hit the sack.
[02:08] <josh__> yeah baby :) thats what i wanted
[02:08] <josh__> thanks longbean
[02:08] <Nameeater> language mate :)
[02:08] <fredl> cry0gen, g'night, and thanks for helping me!
[02:08] <afief> cry0gen: go easy on it
[02:08] <cry0gen> no problem man
[02:08] <cry0gen> if you see a video later on in the week
[02:09] <cry0gen> of a computer being dragged behind a car
[02:09] <cry0gen> it's not me x-x
[02:09] <cry0gen> lol
[02:09] <cry0gen> ciao.
[02:09] <fredl> plenty of videos like that in my private collection :)
[02:10] <rdz> shawarma, thanks. the problem is, that i already killed it, but i cannot start it anymore. the only way i know now to start it again, is rebooting....
[02:10] <josh__> what is the command in linux that is the equivilent of "tracrt" in windows?
[02:10] <agustincnc> Hi, and thanks in advance, Does any of you know where is the DISPLAY variable set? In my drapper it is set to :0.0 instead of hostname:0.0 . How can I change that?
[02:10] <josh__> strace?
[02:10] <fredl> josh__, traceroute
[02:10] <shawarma> rdz: Just wait a couple of minutes.
[02:10] <josh__> ahh
[02:10] <josh__> duh
[02:10] <josh__> lol
[02:10] <shawarma> rdz: Which program is it.
[02:10] <void^> or tracepath
[02:10] <josh__> didn't work
[02:10] <josh__> tracepath :)
[02:10] <fredl> josh__, sudo apt-get install traceroute
[02:11] <shawarma> rdz: It works that way by design.
[02:11] <rdz> shawarma, it is a sefwritten server, written in puredata (audio software)
[02:11] <josh__> i think i might have to.... tracepath wont look outside my network :(
[02:11] <rdz> it uses an object called [netserver] , which is actually the server
[02:11] <shawarma> rdz: Ok. You need to wait.. I think it's two minutes.
[02:11] <cry0gen> fredl: AH HA!*@@*
[02:11] <cry0gen> hahaha
[02:11] <shawarma> rdz: Can you set any options of the listening socket?
[02:11] <cry0gen> proprietary drivers x-x.
[02:11] <rdz> shawarma, sometimes it takes me more thatn half an hour..
[02:11] <cry0gen> rmmod nvidia D:
[02:11] <cry0gen> it stopped :|
[02:12] <rdz> shawarma, what options are you talking about?
[02:12] <fredl> cry0gen, ur shitting me right?
[02:12] <fredl> cry0gen, LOL
[02:12] <shawarma> rdz: TCP options.
[02:12] <josh__> what the hell man....
[02:12] <rdz> shawarma, no
[02:12] <josh__> tniehter of those are tracing
[02:12] <rdz> just the port
[02:12] <josh__> neither....
[02:12] <fredl> josh__, traceroute traces quite well outside your network :)
[02:12] <ws002> hallo
[02:13] <rdz> shawarma, isn't there  a way to kill all connections as root?
[02:13] <sharperguy> who knows of a good alterative to mplayer (must not require x)
[02:13] <shawarma> rdz: check the documentation for something like SO_REUSEADDR
[02:13] <josh__> yeah i got traceroute now... but it times out before it leaves my network :(
[02:13] <shawarma> rdz: Well, something like:
[02:13] <cry0gen> now i sleep
[02:13] <fredl> josh__, try traceroute -n
[02:13] <fredl> josh__, your DNS may be fubar
[02:13] <ws002> can i join with u
[02:13] <fredl> cry0gen, g'nite
[02:13] <javiolo> !lstp
[02:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lstp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:13] <javiolo> !thin client
[02:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thin client - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:13] <josh__> what does the -n switch do?
[02:13] <shawarma> rdz: netstat -an | grep ':portnumber' | awk -- '{ print $NF }' | cut -f1 -d/ | xargs kill
[02:13] <josh__> its still timing out...
[02:13] <shawarma> rdz: that should kill anything that is using that port.
[02:13] <fredl> josh__, makes traceoute not try to resolve IP adresses
[02:14] <josh__> if the host computer is off will it still trace?
[02:14] <fredl> josh__, man traceroute
[02:14] <javiolo> can anyone point me to thin clients config doc ?
[02:14] <rdz> shawarma, many thanks.. i'll try
[02:14] <PingunZ> hey I cant open the .rwa files of my dSLR camera. How can I open them ?
[02:14] <shawarma> rdz: np
[02:14] <josh__> it should atleast make it to their isp
[02:14] <shawarma> PingunZ: dcraw
[02:14] <fredl> josh__, host computer? you mean the target computer? yes it will.
[02:14] <Knut> shwarma, do you mean "perl-mp3-info"?
[02:14] <josh__> yeah target... sorry its still early for me
[02:14] <shawarma> PingunZ: Or even better: rawstudio.
[02:14] <josh__> hmm... i cant get a trace at all
[02:14] <fredl> josh__, but you won't get the last hop obviously since that computers is not able to answer.
[02:14] <PingunZ> shawarma: what happens after I installed dcraw, cause I installed it yet, no result
[02:14] <josh__> lemme trace yahoo and see if it is a network config issue
[02:14] <afief> Is there a way to rip a streaming video and save it to my own computer?
[02:15] <shawarma> Knut: no. mp3info
[02:15] <shawarma> Knut: mp3info - An MP3 technical info viewer and ID3 1.x tag editor
[02:15] <josh__> ok... network issue... what could be wrong?
[02:15] <bassy61> is there a different server root then "/etc/apache" on xubuntu?
[02:15] <fredl> josh__, PM me what output you get in traceroute
[02:15] <shawarma> PingunZ: dcraw is a commmandline tool that can convert them to something else, like jpeg.
[02:15] <Knut> mhh.. didnt found it.. only perl mp3 info.. but it looks like the same
[02:15] <rdz> shawarma, there isn't any application running using this port, but i still cannot start the server...
[02:15] <rdz> i asked so many people about this, yet....
[02:15] <PingunZ> ah ok thanks
[02:15] <rdz> semms to be quite difficult.
[02:16] <josh__> im not regged, cant pm... but i can save you the troube... this is the output * * *
[02:16] <josh__> lol
[02:16] <PingunZ> shawarma: is there a way to just be able to watch them in nautilus ?
[02:16] <shawarma> rdz: So 'netstat -an | grep :portnumber' doesn't give any output?
[02:16] <rdz> shawarma, yes, no output
[02:16] <PingunZ> shawarma: I mean, to be able to see the tumbnails etc ..
[02:16] <shawarma> PingunZ: Not sure. I'm not blessed with such a fancy camera. :-)
[02:16] <PingunZ> ah no problem shawarma :)
[02:17] <fredl> josh__, good moment to register eh? :) I wanna see the command line you type and the exact output
[02:17] <rdz> shawarma, is there a way to kill the connections, not the server-app (since it is already down)?
[02:17] <shawarma> rdz: 2 seconds.
[02:17] <josh__> ok
[02:17] <rdz> shawarma, np,i really apreciate your help
[02:17] <shawarma> rdz: There are no connections, if netstat doesn't show them.
[02:17] <josh__> root@Linux:/var/log# traceroute -n www.yahoo.com
[02:17] <josh__> traceroute to www.yahoo-ht2.akadns.net (209.73.186.238), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
[02:18] <josh__>  1  * * *
[02:18] <fredl> josh__, and you are not getting anything else but * * * ?
[02:18] <rdz> shawarma, i see. but for some reason it still says; cannot create object: bind address already in use
[02:18] <josh__> nope
[02:18] <josh__> that is what i get at the first hop
[02:18] <josh__> it has to be a network issue
[02:18] <fredl> josh__, I think that may be your ISP. Did you ever traceroute the same path from your windoze?
[02:18] <josh__> but i am not running a firewall and my iptables are set to accept on all policies
[02:19] <josh__> yeah i can traceroute fine from windows
[02:19] <shawarma> rdz: Take a look at: 'sudo netstat -apn' and make sure it's not using any other ports.
[02:19] <bassy61> could someone tell me where to look to see where apache is setup and the variables?
[02:19] <fredl> josh__, hmmmm. the *'s means it's waiting for a node to reply back an ICMP packet
[02:20] <rdz> shawarma, i got it, when i looked without grep: tcp        0  20446 netpd.org:3025          80-219-11-114.dcl:39927 FIN_WAIT1
[02:20] <fyrestrtr> bassy61: /etc/apache2/
[02:20] <josh__> hold please, phone
[02:20] <void^> try traceroute -I
[02:20] <dracula_> shawarma, fini 3azbak bi tnen shawarma la7em w we7di djej
[02:20] <fredl> josh__, probably your ISP's router. if that one doesn't respond to ICMP, maybe that's the prob
[02:20] <rdz> shawarma, i think that is the *evil* connection
[02:20] <sharperguy> Hold the phone....
[02:20] <shawarma> dracula_: My words exactly.
[02:20] <rdz> shawarma, how can i kill it?
[02:21] <shawarma> rdz: You can't really, because it's already dead.
[02:21] <shawarma> rdz: Give me a few seconds. I need to look something up.
[02:21] <rdz> shawarma, sorry: my fault, i forgot to subsitute :portnumber with the real portnumber
[02:23] <shawarma> rdz: *G* Ah, that makes sense.
[02:23] <josh__> so you think it is the isp's router huh...?
[02:24] <Ace_NoOne> heya
[02:24] <josh__> wouldn't that affect my ability to ping?
[02:24] <fredl> josh__, yeah most likely. you have another computer in yoru own network?
[02:24] <fredl> josh__, nope, because traceoute expects an answer from all hops, not just the last one.
[02:25] <shawarma> rdz: I don't really have time to check the kernel source right now, but I'm almost sure that it can't stay in FIN_WAIT1 for more than 8 minutes.
[02:25] <josh__> ahh...
[02:25] <rdz> shawarma, ok. i'll wait
[02:25] <shawarma> rdz: It's a design thing.
[02:25] <shawarma> rdz: What was the application again?
[02:25] <bassy61> thank you very much, i have apache set up now, i was wandering if i place the jinzora dir. in the apache area to set it up, ie. does jinzora run under apache?
[02:25] <rdz> shawarma, i see
[02:25] <josh__> hmm... ill rdp to my windows box and give it a shot and see what happens
[02:25] <rdz> shawarma, it is an external for puredate
[02:25] <rdz> *puredata
[02:25] <Ace_NoOne> quick question: A friend of mine just decided (I convinced him ;) ) to install Linux - that is, Ubuntu. He's got a birthday next week; is there anything 'material' I could get him? A book about Linux doesn't really sound very appealing though, as you could find all of that info on the 'net as well. (He's a gamer, so maybe something about getting Windows games to run under Linux?)
[02:26] <fredl> josh__, try traceoute'ing your local windows box first, it'll show you traceroute works fine
[02:26] <shawarma> rdz: It's got something to do with TCP's connection handling. It has to wait around for a proper response to it's FIN package, which apparantly doesn't show up in your case.
[02:26] <abo> anyone knows in Ubuntu where can I find the eclipse jars to include in swt project?
[02:26] <rdz> shawarma, ok i see
[02:26] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: the ubutnu book
[02:26] <anthony> how can I stop firefox crashing when it gets to the end of a youtube video?
[02:26] <shawarma> rdz: So to make sure it handles it properly if it ever shows up, it keeps the socket around.
[02:26] <hansheng> :-D
[02:26] <Ace_NoOne> satempler: that's what I thought, but ... I don't think he'd be too excited about it
[02:27] <satempler> oh Cediga
[02:27] <fredl> Ace_NoOne, maybe you can buy him a game from http://www.linuxgamepublishing.com/ and give him the receipt :)
[02:27] <Ace_NoOne> lol
[02:27] <shawarma> Ace_NoOne: Or buy him a license for cedega.
[02:27] <Ace_NoOne> well ... not too bad an idea, actually - lemme look into that
[02:27] <bassy61> do i have to setup a virtual server (under apache) for jinzora?
[02:27] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: Cedega with a copy of a nice cool FPS
[02:27] <Ace_NoOne> Cadega? (I'm a Linux newbie myself)
[02:28] <rdz> shawarma, thanks alot. you helped me a lot. now i at least kind of understand what is going on...
[02:28] <shawarma> Ace_NoOne: wine for games.
[02:28] <shawarma> rdz: np
[02:28] <shawarma> Ace_NoOne: do you know what wine is?
[02:28] <fredl> actually I noticed that linuxgamepublishing.com also has a GPL game network project going on. Anybody know anything about that?
[02:28] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: Transgameing
[02:28] <Ace_NoOne> shawarma: I know about Wine, but little more than the fact that it's supposed to run most/many Win apps under Linux
[02:28] <fredl> it's called 'Grapple'
[02:28] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: allows windows games to run under Linux
[02:29] <Ace_NoOne> so where's the diff between cadega and wine
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> better game compatibility
[02:29] <fredl> I haven't given wine any try since a loooooong time
[02:29] <shawarma> Ace_NoOne: That's all you need to know. wine is not very good with games. Cedega is a fork of wine (or something like that) that works wonders with games. Or so I'm told. I don't game myself.
[02:29] <satempler> Ace_NoOne:  cedega is specal for 3D gaming
[02:29] <Knut> weeee... afief.. i ask in #amarok and they told me the name of the amarok script you mean. it is "transKode".. and it works fine :)
[02:30] <Ace_NoOne> I see - but it's non-free-as-in-beer?
[02:30] <mjr> yes, the gaming thing, plus cedega is non-free
[02:30] <Ace_NoOne> there we go ...
[02:30] <shawarma> Ace_NoOne: yes
[02:30] <Ace_NoOne> well, thanks for the tips, guys
[02:30] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: the simple version yes the hard one no
[02:30] <fredl> anybody here have experience with cedega then?
[02:30] <afief> Knut: too bad you didn't take the time to learn how to write it yourself....
[02:31] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: the hard one you compile
[02:31] <Knut> and now amarok "transkodes" 2000 songs..
[02:31] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: the easy one is done already
[02:31] <Ace_NoOne> satempler: how hard would that be then
[02:31] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: finding all dependencys and development files it requires
[02:32] <joachim-n> how do I restart cupsys?
[02:32] <fredl> is cedega released 'often and early' ?
[02:32] <Knut> yeah, but now i didnt have the time for it. because tomorow i want to change to xubuntu.. ^^
[02:32] <Ace_NoOne> so quite hard for a non-developer like me
[02:32] <Knut> and i have to burn my music before
[02:32] <POVaddct> Knut: xfce rocks :)
[02:32] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: easy one just un tar to /
[02:32] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: the debian doesn't work
[02:32] <Knut> jepp, thats because i want to change^^ now im running on suse 10.1 with kde 3.5.1 :-\
[02:32] <Ace_NoOne> the debian what doesn't work?
[02:33] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: it has binary packages that don't have to be compiled
[02:33] <Knut> nice for beginners, but for me its too slow..
[02:33] <POVaddct> Knut: yeah, kde and gnome are bloatware
[02:33] <Ace_NoOne> I guess that's too high for me there
[02:33] <Ace_NoOne> :D
[02:33] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: since Ubuntu is based on debian (hence .deb packages)
[02:33] <fredl> Knut - so you can't write any shell scripts but you don't consider yourself a beginner? :)
[02:34] <POVaddct> fredl: heh
[02:34] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: but the debian packages work for Debian GNU/Linux not Ubuntu
[02:34] <Ace_NoOne> satempler: yeah, I know, but I don't really get what it is you're trying to tell me there :o
[02:34] <|thunder2> window
[02:35] <dayewo> who use the gmp lib?
[02:35] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: so they have another binary version that you drop the files in your self
[02:35] <|thunder2> -window
[02:35] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: there will be instructions
[02:35] <Ace_NoOne> well, yeah, but I guess I'll get started with the Linux basics first ;)
[02:35] <Ace_NoOne> just finished the download of the Kubuntu ISO :D
[02:35] <Knut> hehe nice argument fredl.. but i dont say that im not a beginner.. running 1 year a linux mashine but i have no experience with console.. damn suse^^
[02:36] <fredl> actually cedega sounds great. Just don't wanna fall for yet another commercial product that breaks on the next ubuntu upgrade.
[02:36] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: cedega is good if you can figure out how to make Binary Nvidia and ATI drivers work
[02:36] <opexoc> I have question: If I installed new kernel for example 2.6.17, Would I choose this new kernel and others which I had during grub process?
[02:36] <fredl> been there, done that, HATE it and promised not to bother with commercial software anymore.
[02:37] <fredl> opexoc - yes
[02:37] <Ace_NoOne> satempler: now I see what you're getting at - thanks!
[02:37] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: go here http://www.transgaming.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&file=index&ceid=29
[02:37] <POVaddct> Knut: once you discover screen(1), you will love the console :)
[02:37] <Knut> so, i will leave now... nice weekend to you all.. maybe im back tomorrow on xubuntu ;)
[02:37] <opexoc> fredl: but, will it be make automatically ( new entry in grub config file ) ?
[02:38] <Knut> erm.. one question is there now... can i use my suse /home partition with ubuntu too?
[02:38] <fredl> opexoc - yes.
[02:38] <d-strike> hi
[02:38] <fredl> Knut - yes.
[02:38] <opexoc> fredl: ok. thx
[02:38] <POVaddct> Knut: you can try, but don't expect everything running smoothly
[02:38] <Knut> oh, thats nice.. than i must only create a new user, not format the whole partition :)
[02:38] <Ace_NoOne> ugh Cadega is subscription-based - I hate that kinda distribution model
[02:39] <POVaddct> Knut: different version of programs will have problems with config files
[02:39] <fredl> Knut, you want to install Ubuntu on a separate partition?
[02:39] <Knut> jeah
[02:39] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: but you get updates
[02:39] <Knut> i have 2 root partitions and 1 swap and 1 home
[02:39] <fredl> Knut, and you have your /home on a separate partition?
[02:39] <fredl> Knut, in that case no problems.
[02:39] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: (could pirate it but I can't help you on that)
[02:39] <POVaddct> Knut: you might have to chown the old home dir to you new user's id
[02:40] <CorruptKode> Ok that was strange
[02:40] <Ace_NoOne> I know, satempler, but it still sucks - and I don't pirate Linux software... ;)
[02:40] <d-strike> lol pirate linux software
[02:40] <POVaddct> Knut: i suggest keeping a backup of the old suse user files
[02:40] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: cool
[02:40] <Ace_NoOne> I'd only pirate the games... ;D
[02:40] <Knut> jepp, thats the cause why im burning all my music and other files
[02:40] <POVaddct> Knut: so you can selectively retrieve files from it
[02:40] <Knut> 30gb files to save :-\
[02:40] <Kakurady> How is Linux software piracy possible?
[02:41] <Lynoure> easily
[02:41] <fredl> Kakurady, commercial linux software.
[02:41] <Ace_NoOne> Kakurady/d-strike: talking about Cadega
[02:41] <d-strike> ahhh
[02:41] <Kakurady> Ho^H^HOh.
[02:41] <Knut> okay, but now im leaving.. thank you for help! goodbye :)
[02:41] <fredl> bye Knut
[02:41] <Lynoure> I paid >100 euros for one software
[02:42] <Rexkwando> I recently got a new samsung 19 inch monitor, and I am a bit disappointed in the blurriness of the fonts.  the screen res applet gives a max of 1024 x 768, but I think that the monitor could support something higher.  Is there a way to try this (CLI even)?
[02:42] <Lynoure> Was worth it, too
[02:42] <d-strike> hmm..is it ur gfx card?
[02:42] <Rexkwando> may be
[02:42] <fredl> Lynoure, just so difficult to know that in advance.
[02:43] <d-strike> what gfx card do you have?
[02:43] <dayewo> who use GNU MP?
[02:43] <fredl> GNU MP? what's that?
[02:43] <d-strike> cuz if its onboard i don't think it'll make the cut for 19"
[02:43] <Rexkwando> geforce4 mx 4000
[02:43] <Lynoure> fredl: I think they offered a demo
[02:43] <d-strike> THERE my friend is ur problem
[02:43] <d-strike> i hate that card with a PASSION
[02:44] <Rexkwando> ah
[02:44] <Rexkwando> any suggestions?
[02:44] <d-strike> u got the right drivers?
[02:44] <POVaddct> d-strike: that card can't do more than 1024x768?
[02:44] <Lattyware> Rexkwando: Are you using DVI or DSub?
[02:44] <d-strike> it *should*
[02:44] <Ace_NoOne> another question: the Kubuntu FAQ[*]  tells me how to install Kubuntu from regular Ubuntu - but I don't understand what it says there. Anyone care to explain?[*]  http://kubuntu.org/faq.php#installfromubuntu
[02:44] <d-strike> but i just hate that card because its so incompatable with..everything
[02:45] <Rexkwando> I updated everything that I could find, I'm sure I'm heeled
[02:45] <dayewo>            a portable library written in C for arbitrary precision arithmetic on integers, rational
[02:45] <dayewo> numbers, and oating-point numbers
[02:45] <POVaddct> d-strike: so is it really the card's fault or that of the nv driver?
[02:45] <fredl> Rexkwando, do you use the nv or the nvidia driver?
[02:45] <dayewo> who use it?
[02:45] <Rexkwando> nvidia
[02:45] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: it just install KDE on Ubuntu
[02:45] <Splinter> Ace_NoOne, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:46] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: and perverts GNOME by poluting it with KDE apps
[02:46] <Ace_NoOne> well, it'd just be to get a first impression to compare the two anyway
[02:46] <fredl> Rexkwando, did you check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if there's any error messages?
[02:46] <Rexkwando> nope, will do
[02:46] <Ace_NoOne> so download KDE, then execute that "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" statement in the shell?
[02:47] <Ace_NoOne> (I hate being a newbie ;) )
[02:47] <satempler> Ace_NoOne: no need to download KDE
[02:47] <Lattyware> Ace_NoOne: Just run that command
[02:47] <Splinter> no just do the apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:47] <Lattyware> does it for you
[02:47] <Warbo> Ace_NoOne: If you install kubuntu-desktop try and do it with aptitude, that way it will remove all of the KDE stuff if you decide to remove it later (using aptitude again)
[02:47] <fredl> Rexkwando, you might want to check the output of 'dmesg' as well, as I believe the nvidia driver also requires kernel modiles
[02:47] <Splinter> takes care of everything
[02:47] <POVaddct> Rexkwando: you can check the same file for ddc-probed monitor properties like panel size
[02:47] <dayewo> who use GNU MP?
[02:47] <KenSentMe> I have a problem running Firefox and Skype together with sound. I've tried the help page at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems, but i still can't get the two programms to both use my soundcard at the same time. Anyone have other options?
[02:47] <POVaddct> Rexkwando: is it a tft display?
[02:47] <d-strike> use one at a time?
[02:47] <Ace_NoOne> a lot to digest for me there ... so I'll go and try that out now
[02:47] <Ace_NoOne> thanks again, people!

[02:48] <d-strike> speaking of which...has anyone gotten their printer to work?>

[02:48] <anthony> a script at the end of embedded youtube videos appears to be stopping FF from responding.  sometime it tells me and prompts me to stop it, but sometimes it doesn't. what should I do to manually stop it when it doesn't prompt?
[02:49] <d-strike> do they have native linux drivers?
[02:49] <lastnode> does ubuntu security block any ports by default?
[02:49] <fredl> anthony, an mpeg?
[02:49] <fredl> lastnode, no, don't think so.
[02:49] <djm62> On my new acer travelmate 2428 laptop, on battery power, with the cpu speed throttled down, the fan is going off the whole time.  I'm pretty sure this isn't necessary and is wasting battery: can anyone help me to get it to Just Work?
[02:49] <rocky> anyone know if there's qt7 code available anyplace for a video player on dapper ?
[02:49] <djm62> ("going off"==continuously spinning)
[02:49] <rocky> err... qt7 codec
[02:49] <d-strike> umm isn't the fan controlled by something lower then the OS?
[02:50] <lastnode> fredl, im using hamachi, and my friends can see me on the network, but they cant connect to me. router ports are forwarded etc
[02:50] <anthony> fredl, no it's the youtube flash-video format, flv
[02:50] <Warbo> QT7? I thought QT4 was the latest code :)
[02:50] <fredl> d-strike, sometimes by BIOS.
[02:50] <d-strike> ahhh
[02:50] <Warbo> anthony: If your script is breaking occasionally then try and find another. I have tried about 4 and all have worked
[02:51] <fredl> anthony, oh, I don't know that. I've watched youtube videos before and it works fine for me so I assumed they were mpegs or so. Does it give a problem for you on all their videos or just one or a few?
[02:51] <djm62> I'm pretty sure in this case it's controllable, but ACPI is nasty and I don't know what I'm doing with it
[02:51] <rocky> lol
[02:51] <Nimwei> How come my Samba doesn't work?  When I attempt to connect to my box via my WinXP computer, it asks me for a username/password and no combo work.
[02:51] <rocky> i want to watch quicktime 7 videos in ubuntu :(
[02:51] <Rexkwando> POVaddict I don't know if it's TFT, how do I check that?
[02:51] <fredl> lastnode, are you using any broadband router or something?
[02:51] <d-strike> lol no native linux quicktime plugin
[02:52] <lastnode> fredl, i am, and the ports are fine.. it works on XP
[02:52] <anthony> fredl, just ones that are embedded on third party sites, using the generated "embed" html
[02:52] <Warbo> fredl: YouTube doesn't let you download the videos, they have seperated out the player from the video so looking through the source doesn't help. However, there are loads of greasemonnkey scripts out there which give direct links to the videos, I think that is what he means
[02:52] <POVaddct> Rexkwando: is it a flat panel display or a cathode ray tube? you can tell by the measurements of the monitor case
[02:52] <anthony> Warbo, thanks for you advice.  how do I do that?! (I'm a complete newbie :$)
[02:52] <Warbo> !restricted
[02:52] <ketsugi|away> There's a bash script that downloads the youtube video for you

[02:52] <fredl> lastnode, I'm not familiar with hamachi itself, but for example for xchat DCC I need to configure both xchat and my DSL router properly
[02:52] <ketsugi|away> I can send it to you if you want
[02:52] <dayewo> Is it atom operation that assign to integer  in 32bit system?
[02:52] <Rexkwando> oh, it's LCD TFT
[02:53] <Warbo> anthony: Are you using the greasemonkey extension?
[02:53] <POVaddct> Rexkwando: okay. anything about the panel size in the x server logfile?
[02:53] <panado> What's the smallest download to begin installing Ubumtu pulling the installation over the internet? I could only find the full CDs to download...
[02:53] <panado> sp...ubuntu
[02:54] <mjr> dayewo, yes
[02:54] <d-strike> umm pando
[02:54] <d-strike> there's something called DSL

[02:54] <Kakurady> Synaptic with a ubuntu repository?
[02:54] <anthony> Warbo, no I'm just tring to play them on websites etc.
[02:54] <d-strike> i think its like 50mb or osmething
[02:54] <Warbo> anthony: If so then just look on the extensions page (I think it is available in one of the menus at the top) and seacrh for youtube or "video downloader" or something, or else check on Google for a greasemonkey script (if you have greasemonkey enabled then a button will appear at the top of the page saying that it is a script, and click a button to install it)
[02:54] <ketsugi> anthony, chmod +x that file
[02:54] <ketsugi> and run it ./youtube-dl <youtube URL here>
[02:55] <ketsugi> it'll download the FLV file which you can play in Totem or whatever
[02:55] <POVaddct> d-strike: but DSL is not the ubuntu installer. how would you use it for installing ubuntu?
[02:55] <anthony> ketsugi,  nice one.  cheers man
[02:55] <Warbo> anthony: Playing them online needs an Adobe Flash player 7 (Gnash doesn't support the codec, and <6 doesn't either)
[02:55] <dayewo> mjr, so i can use it to replace the PV operation?
[02:55] <d-strike> i guess, but if what he realli wanted was space
[02:55] <dalfz> anyone know of a sip softphone that can record phone conversations to file?
[02:55] <ketsugi> anthony: you are, of course, advised to look through the source to make sure I didn't send you anything potentially nasty :)
[02:55] <d-strike> hahaha
[02:55] <ketsugi> Don't trust anyone
[02:55] <ketsugi> Not even me!
[02:55] <anthony> Warbo, the file plays fine, and then hangs when it finsihes

[02:56] <d-strike> btw does anyone know how to get a canon printer to work?
[02:56] <Warbo> anthony: Hmm, I know YouTube have started adding their own "splash screen" thing at the end of the videos, maybe that is the problem
[02:56] <anthony> yeah I think it is
[02:57] <Warbo> anthony: I was about to suggest trying it in a different browser, but the plugins are all the same
[02:58] <javiolo> can anyone point me to thin clients config doc ?
[02:58] <geokok> hi. FIrefox problem. Saved forms are not saved after closing firefox. I believe i have the correct options ticked. help please fellows
[02:59] <tc99m> do i need to upgrade from ubuntu 6.06 to 6.06.1?
[02:59] <geokok> no u dont
[02:59] <geokok> 6.0.6.1 simply has the updates u probably have downloaded
[02:59] <Warbo> tc99m: The .1 is just a different CD which includes all of the online updates. If you have updated the packages since installing then there is no point. If not then just run the update manager
[03:00] <kbrosnan> geokok, there are some things that might be doing this one is autocomplete=off or if it is a multi line text box then the info is not saved
[03:00] <tc99m> I am looking for a good CMS (content management system) that will work with Ubuntu any suggestions??
[03:00] <Dabian> Hi, I am trying to compile last.fm player under ubuntu dapper 64-bit (dapper is the new, right?).  I get this error about loosing precision. Anyone else wind up with this problem, preferably with a sollution ...?
[03:00] <abo> anyone knows where are the eclipse JAR located in Ubuntu?
[03:01] <kozmic> are there something wrong with the update manager? I click for the update and install, but it doesnt install the xorg update.
[03:01] <Dabian> abo, everyone aside from you, aparently.
[03:01] <evil_bunny> hello, were can  find the docs to install ubuntu from the PC desktop CD ?
[03:01] <Warbo> I heard there is a really good last.fm player which has debs and is better than the official one
[03:01] <Dabian> Warbo, lastexit?
[03:01] <abo> Dabian, can anyone tell me then ;)
[03:01] <Warbo> abo: probably /usr/lib/eclipse (or something else in /usr/lib)
[03:01] <pItfalls> Warbo: last-exit debs can be found in the forum
[03:01] <Warbo> that's the one
[03:01] <geokok> @kbrosnan: well ok about forms but I am talking about the search bar that ff has and simple forms like google home page search
[03:02] <Dabian> abo, hehe .. I guess noone can, except those that do.
[03:02] <abo> Warbo, thanks
[03:02] <abhinay> how can i active 3D acceleration for Intel ?
[03:02] <Dabian> pItfalls, in other words - the official player is broken?
[03:02] <pItfalls> works here
[03:02] <Warbo> I think so
[03:03] <Dabian> pItfalls, for 64bit, even. :D
[03:03] <pItfalls> dont know
[03:03] <Dabian> abhinay, achieve?
[03:03] <Dabian> pItfalls, You use 32bit exclusively?
[03:03] <Warbo> abhinay: I think Intel drivers are already installed, you just need to activate them. Try looking on help.ubuntu.com/community
[03:03] <pItfalls> Dabian: nothing else here ;)
[03:04] <Dabian> Warbo, you're 64bit?
[03:04] <Warbo> Dabian: No
[03:04] <Dabian> Why so few 64bit?
[03:04] <Dabian> Because its hard?
[03:04] <Dabian> !gliding
[03:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gliding - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:04] <mnk___> hello all - can someone tell me how to fix this; i get error 15 from grub
[03:04] <pItfalls> Dabian: dont need a new system - yet ;)
[03:04] <Warbo> Dabian: Many people run 32bit Ubuntu on 64bit machines (as long as they are x86) because of codecs, Flash and other non-Free stuff which nobody is allowed to port to 64bit
[03:05] <Dabian> pItfalls, ahh .. the good ole .. "my ole computer can do for a few more years.." :-)
[03:05] <Dabian> Warbo, right .. I have a chroot for that stuff. :)
[03:05] <Dabian> 32bit'
[03:05] <borfast> time to go. thanks again for the help, shawarma.
[03:05] <Warbo> Dabian: I use 14MHz Amiga 1200s every day. Just because a newer computer comes out, it doesn't mean the old ones suddenly explode
[03:05] <Dabian> borfast, do you know where to gain boric acid?!??
[03:05] <ompaul> abo, in a terminal do sudo updatedb and then locate jar | grep eli and see how you get on
[03:06] <Dabian> Warbo, I agree .. I had a 500MHz for a long time ..
[03:06] <Dabian> Warbo, however, at some point, old computers gets harder to aquire! ;-)

[03:07] <Warbo> Dabian: Er... or Gstreamer? "sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse" should do it
[03:07] <PingunZ_> doesnt work, only sound ..
[03:07] <Dabian> PingunZ_, get some codecs then!
[03:08] <Dabian> Warbo, oh .. neat
[03:08] <fredl> anybody know it there's an Ubuntu specific doc on how to configure/install a remote control?
[03:08] <ompaul> PingunZ_, first off we have found that automatix has caused issues in the past, second for restricted see what Warbo got ubotu to put up there and thirdly the edgy channel is in ubuntu+1 as it is where people talk of this beta software
[03:08] <Dabian> PingunZ_, listen to WARBO.
[03:08] <PingunZ_> ok :)
[03:08] <abo> ompaul... thanks a lot... I'll keep that command somewhere.. very handy
[03:08] <ompaul> abo, when you do a lot of adding and deleting it is more useful :)
[03:09] <Warbo> PingunZ_: I would recommend you get something like the Nimo codec pack from a website like softpedia, then install it with WINE and copy the .dll files it puts in $HOME/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 into /usr/lib/codecs. That gets pretty much every codec there is
[03:09] <fredl> okay lemme rephrase that, is anybody using a remote control on their Ubuntu box? :)
[03:09] <geokok> TadeuRocha r u still there?
[03:10] <javiolo> can anyone point me to thin clients config doc ?
[03:10] <Warbo> fredl: You should look for LIRC documentation. The most relevant stuff will probably be in the same place as MythTV docs
[03:10] <lastnode> does kopete really do webcams well?
[03:11] <fredl> Warbo - tried that. it's not quite as comprehensive as I'd like though.
[03:11] <geokok> webcams seem to be bad in general in linux
[03:11] <Nae> I can't get my screen resolution up - the resolution dialogue shows only the three basics (regardless of what I do to x's config).

[03:18] <tc99m> I am looking for a good CMS (content management system) that will work with Ubuntu any suggestions??
[03:18] <finalbeta> !alsa
[03:18] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[03:19] <fyrestrtr> tc99m: drupal
[03:19] <carl0s> but anybody else running dapper ppc on a powerbook?
[03:19] <GrandMaso> Apt refuse and aptitude find a solution but doesn't apply it
[03:19] <sladen> asabil_: fix usplash for widescreens in what way?  What's the bug number?
[03:20] <RMorris84> abo, that didnt help
[03:20] <DeeTahPanLtah> why is there no ops? ;P
[03:20] <fredl> Hmm, when I use mplayer -vo gl, shouldn't I get the accelerated display driver?
[03:20] <fyrestrtr> there are, they just don't op themselves -- I think its freenode policy.
[03:20] <DeeTahPanLtah> how to recognize who is op,then?
[03:20] <evil_bunny> hello, at which step will the setup ask me which partition to use and detect windows for dual booting ?

[03:23] <Nae> I got it to show four resolutions now, but nothing about 1024x768.
[03:23] <Nae> (for some reasons the vertical and horizontal refresh rates had disappeared from xorg.config... *grmbl*)
[03:23] <Seveas> fyrestrtr, why not?
[03:24] <x-cyrion> hi, i compile kde game konquest, but the configure file is missing. the automake give: "automake: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required"    --  what can i do?
[03:24] <fyrestrtr> because, I've had bad experiences before with corrupted files upon un-encryption :(
[03:24] <Jimmey> thanks fyrestrtr
[03:25] <RMorris84> how do i copy files to a diff folder if i dont have premission to just drop them there?
[03:25] <sgcplayer> Can I just copy my home directory to another partition using cpdir?  All I want to do is back it up in case I mess up the partition it's currently in.  The target partition already has files on it I want to keep.
[03:26] <sgcplayer> the target is formatted vfat.  or could I use cp?  I just want to make sure I get all the files.
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: use sudo before the copy command.
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: sudo cp ~/somefile /somewhere/where/you/have/no/permission :)
[03:26] <RMorris84> can i do that with an entire folder?
[03:26] <QwertyManiac> how can I have different wallpapers per desktop ?
[03:27] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: sure, man cp :)
[03:27] <MattRhodes> can anyone help with the fact /etc/resolv.conf keeps reverting back to 1982.162.1.1 roughly ten minutes after setting it?
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> i always cheat and use mc for my copyneeds.. your home dir - has a lot of stuff you proberly dont need to copy over.
[03:27] <MattRhodes> 192.168.1.1****
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> like the firefox cache, and so on.
[03:27] <fyrestrtr> MattRhodes: are you on a network with a dhcp server?
[03:28] <sgcplayer> fyrestrtr, will that work for  a home directory, too?  I'd like to back mine up, without compression
[03:28] <sgcplayer> ...to a different partition
[03:28] <fyrestrtr> sgcplayer: it works for *any* file. Its not specific to a directory. Its a general command.
[03:28] <MattRhodes> yes, I am using D-Link DSL - 504t ADSL router set DHCP
[03:28] <RMorris84> well im basicallly trying to add icons to the /usr/share/icons folder and it wont let me just copy them... if the files were on my desktop then i would do 'sudo cp ~/desktop/FOLDER/ /user/share/icons/' is that right?
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  DONT use ~
[03:30] <fyrestrtr> MattRhodes: its your dhcp router that's setting the DNS addresses.
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> that would be the root users /root/desktop/ then.
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> I think.
[03:30] <MattRhodes> is it safe to assume I need to change something on the routers firmware?
[03:31] <MattRhodes> fyrestrtr: can you suggest what the option to change on the router would be called?
[03:31] <QwertyManiac> how can I have different wallpapers per desktop please... I see KDE doing it, what about Gnome ?
[03:32] <fredl> GRRR somebody shoulda told me I need to press the contrast/brightness keys for a while in mplayer :P
[03:32] <Dabian> fredl, why?
[03:33] <fredl> Dabian - I thought it didn't work coz the scroll bar you get to see didn't move at all
[03:33] <fyrestrtr> MattRhodes: I don't know to be honest, generally its in the router settings page.
[03:33] <MattRhodes> fyrestrtr: alternatively, could you tell me how to change the nameservers in resolv.vonf and then set the file to read only
[03:33] <Dabian> fredl, someone said "patience is a virtue". .. or at least someone said someone said it.
[03:34] <fyrestrtr> MattRhodes: easiest option for you, is to disable DHCP on your machine and set manual addresses and dns servers -- or -- use the profiles features of gnome-network-manager.
[03:34] <mtholdenss> is resizing a hard drive witha  xp partiion safe to do?
[03:34] <cypher1> is anyone here using vmplayer ?

[03:34] <habeeb> I have a serious problem ^_^ From the moment I installed ubuntu, my screen turned off. When I turned it on, my resolution was at 640x480, and the screen is too blury, I still can see some things atm (primarily because its too zoomed because of the 640x480) , I cant change the resolution from the menu, because the only options are 640x480 and 60hz frame rate... :/
[03:34] <habeeb> How can I fix this, I tried rebooting, and it doesnt work.
[03:35] <fredl> cyper1 - Hmm.
[03:35] <fyrestrtr> habeeb: what video card do you have?
[03:35] <prat> does anyone here know much about ACPI?
[03:35] <cypher1> fredl, you can even check ubuntu repositories
[03:35] <MattRhodes> where do I find gnome-network-manager?
[03:35] <habeeb> ATI 9600 fyrestrtr
[03:35] <whatspy> hi, just a memory blank... what was the command to clean up the Master Boot Record right from the ubuntu LiveCD?
[03:35] <habeeb> fyrestrtr: it was working all right, on debian. And this is the first time I get similar problems.
[03:35] <fyrestrtr> MattRhodes: system > administration > networking
[03:36] <fyrestrtr> !fixres > habeeb
[03:36] <fyrestrtr> !grub > whatspy
[03:36] <fredl> cypher1 - really? so I can simply apt-get install vmplayer?
[03:36] <whatspy> thanx
[03:36] <MattRhodes> great :) thanks fyrestrtr, you've pointed me in the right direction, a bit more fiddling and this should be sorted, seeya
[03:36] <cypher1> fredl, yep :)
[03:36] <habeeb> Ok I'll try it fyrestrtr

[03:40] <DanielMadsen> can any one help me with my network problem?

[03:42] <Nolt> please guys
[03:42] <Nolt> ...
[03:42] <fyrestrtr> Nolt: check the forums, I believe someone posted about that.
[03:42] <Mikkeru> SO nobody knows why any of the new linux distributions are not able to mount my root hdd?
[03:43] <DanielMadsen> I guess nobody can help me here, is there any other way to get help?
[03:43] <habeeb> Ok, the resolution is fixed... But the freaking blurry screen is still here, and thats the worst because I cant use the good resolutions and I had to turn to 640x480 to see the blurry letters fyrestrtr  :/
[03:43] <Mikkeru> Breezy worked untill I ran an update
[03:43] <fyrestrtr> Mikkeru: corrupt disk? bad partition table?
[03:43] <fyrestrtr> habeeb: fix the refresh rates.
[03:43] <Mikkeru> I just formated it
[03:43] <Mikkeru> maybe the disc has seen it's better days
[03:43] <habeeb> Only 60hz is available, still . fyrestrtr
[03:43] <fyrestrtr> habeeb: is it a lcd?
[03:44] <habeeb> rofl... fixed :D
[03:44] <habeeb> WIthout a reason, before 5seconds.
[03:44] <fredl> DeeTahPanLtah, ofcourse. you can do sudo using your own password.
[03:44] <Mikkeru> it says: ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist, Dropping to a shell
[03:45] <DeeTahPanLtah> fredl: so,if i have 27-characters-long password same for my user and root,it's a security issue?
[03:45] <habeeb> But now, I get sparks all the time :/
[03:45] <fredl> DeeTahPanLtah, additionally, sudo is configurable which commands you can let a user sudo to
[03:46] <DeeTahPanLtah> i prefer freedom and unix compatibility ;)
[03:46] <juantelez> Hi
[03:46] <fredl> DeeTahPanLtah, additionally, sudo can log actions taken as another user.
[03:46] <RMorris84> fredl how do i copy to a folder i dont have permission to?
[03:46] <Nolt> fyrestrtr: yea I found a topic like mine but no help :)
[03:46] <DeeTahPanLtah> fredl: syslogd can't?
[03:46] <fredl> DeeTahPanLtah, then by all means go ahead :)
[03:46] <juantelez> could anyone help me closing X
[03:46] <fredl> DeeTahPanLtah, syslog logs the su command, not what you execute after the su command.
[03:47] <DeeTahPanLtah> juantelez: ctr+alt+backspace ;p
[03:47] <juantelez> I alredy try Ctrl Alt F1 and it wont work
[03:47] <Dabian> qt4: <aep> Dabian: so the ubuntu guys forgot network module, or there is an extra package
[03:47] <fredl> RMorris84, you don't. That's why you don't have permission on it :)
[03:47] <geokok> hi. I run ff on ubuntu 6. The problem is that my saved form info (ie search bar) are lost when I exit ff. I have checked the options but no luck. Any help please?
[03:47] <juantelez> DeeTahPanLtah:  thanks but not work
[03:47] <RMorris84> im the only user on this computer
[03:48] <RMorris84> im trying to copy icons to the /usr/share/icons folder
[03:48] <habeeb> Hmm, su, doesnt work on ubuntu? :/
[03:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> juantelez: press ctr+alt+f1 and do sudo killall gdm,this *will* work ;)
[03:48] <Dabian> !qt4
[03:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qt4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:48] <Dabian> !qt
[03:48] <ubotu> qt is the Q toolkit, which forms the base of KDE and a lot of other applications. For the Qt includes, install the libqt3-mt-dev package.
[03:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> habeeb: sudo passwd and it will ;p
[03:48] <fredl> RMorris84, what's your point? Being the only user is not a reason why you should be god on your system :)
[03:48] <habeeb> DeeTahPanLtah: Why not su?
[03:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> then it will!
[03:48] <habeeb> I see.
[03:48] <RMorris84> no but i dont like the fact that I dont have permission
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  you cant seem to get the sudo cp command right eh
[03:49] <juantelez> DeeTahPanLtah: when I press  ctrl + alt+ F1 nothing happens
[03:49] <RMorris84> no dr :-(
[03:49] <fredl> RMorris84, then use sudo to copy the files.
[03:49] <DeeTahPanLtah> juantelez: strange thing
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  install 'mc' and  sudo mc its a nice 2 pane file manager for the shell/console.
[03:49] <juantelez> DeeTahPanLtah: yes
[03:49] <juantelez> DeeTahPanLtah: I have a XKB problem
[03:50] <Dabian> Where can I get qt4?
[03:50] <Dabian> netowrk
[03:50] <Dabian> network
[03:50] <RMorris84> why cant I just drag and drop... i know thats such a windoze term
[03:50] <juantelez> DeeTahPanLtah: but the keys apper to work fine
[03:50] <nox-Hand> In what package might I find mp3encode?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  because you are drag/dropping to a protected folder. (in winows terms)
[03:50] <RMorris84> can i unprotect it?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  if you are the ONLY user.  I thought theres a .icons directory thats normally used on a per user basis
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> you DONT unprotect it.. you  do the proper procedure to put things in there.
[03:51] <geokok> Is my issue a ff bug???Can someone check and tell me..??I am getting desperate here......:(
[03:51] <RMorris84> if there is an .icon place i didnt see it
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> make one :P perhaps.
[03:52] <Dr_Willis> i forget how gnome an dkde differ on their icon ussage
[03:52] <Dr_Willis> i always make a "icons" directory in my homne dir for my own icons
[03:52] <Dabian> Where can I get the network module for QT4??
[03:52] <zerotime> hi all
[03:52] <andi5> anyone else having really slow connections to $cntr.archive.ubuntu.com?
[03:52] <habeeb> Is there a: "Installed: Now what?" howto? I installed it, but lots of things missing, and I want to be put in a row :3
[03:52] <RMorris84> will i have to install the icons manually?
[03:52] <prat> andi5, yeah i was a couple days aho
[03:53] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  'install' what/where?
[03:53] <nox-Hand> Anyone?
[03:53] <zerotime> I installed automatix and added xgl support for kde, so I got a new entry in kdm which points to an xgl version of kde, all is fine, but what if I want to swich that version to gnome?
[03:53] <zerotime> is there anyway to change it?
[03:53] <andi5> prat: is there a list of universe mirrors?
[03:53] <Dr_Willis> i just copy any icons i like to my .icons dir.  when making a new launcher/whatver.. i load them from there.
[03:53] <xst> I'm using munin to monitor e.g. the apache performance. However, I do not understand why "accesses/second" is measured in "100 m", "200 m", etc. No host can server x million accesses per second anyway, so what does this y-axis labeling mean?
[03:54] <RMorris84> like if i made an icon directory in my home, how do i get them to install like if i went to system/pref/themes
[03:54] <geokok> Does anyone know how to make firefox save forms and search entries?
[03:54] <habeeb> btw, whats the difference between gksudo and sudo?
[03:54] <prat> andi5, im not really sure...it might be as simple as $2-letter-country-code.archive.ubuntu.org
[03:54] <geokok> gksudo allows a gui to be run as su
[03:54] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  themes are a TOTALLY different kettle of fish. :P
[03:55] <andi5> prat: seems not to be the case... i have tried de,da,uk and fr
[03:55] <habeeb> geokok: so "su gedit" would have no effect? :/
[03:55] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  normally an icon theme set has a large # of icons.
[03:55] <Dabian> Seveas, Can you help me here?  Where can I get the network module for QT4??
[03:55] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  to copy to the /usr/share/icons as root i do a command similer to -->   sudo cp /home/willis/icons/*.gif  /usr/share/icons
[03:55] <geokok> well it would but I am telling what I read on the web...
[03:55] <Dabian> Seveas, I am trying to build last.fm player in 64bit ubuntu.
[03:55] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  but that icon dir has little to do with the icon themes.
[03:55] <prat> andi5, not sure then....google ubuntu archive mirrors
[03:55] <habeeb> geokok: Ok :)
[03:56] <zerotime> join #xgl
[03:56] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  other then just holding the dirs. :)
[03:56] <RMorris84> hmmm... whats the best way to install themes then lol
[03:56] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  depends on the theme.. I normally drag/drop them to the theme control-panel thing as its open
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> and it isntalls them on a per user basis.
[03:57] <habeeb> RMorris84: you can just drag-drop to the "System"->"Preferences"->"Themes"
[03:57] <habeeb> If its a .tar.gz archive RMorris84
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> logical eh. :P
[03:57] <geokok> I need a person who uses firefox here. Anyone please!
[03:57] <habeeb> geokok: ?
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> !ask
[03:57] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:57] <geokok> yes?
[03:57] <Healot> i use firefox : for Windows :)
[03:57] <seamonkey182> hi! anybody has tryed to install dapper on an iMac? i'm having trouble because the screen remains back after booting the live cd
[03:58] <RMorris84> dr... one more thing
[03:58] <RMorris84> earlier i installed brightside (i think thats right) but after it installed i couldnt find anything to use it
[03:58] <andi5> prat: oh, i just had bad luck in choosing arbitrary mirrors :) i have found one mirroring universe... but thanks for confirmation!
[03:58] <habeeb> Is there a search plugin for firefox for the forum searc? <:
[03:58] <prat> andi5, sure
[03:59] <max_> 'exit
[03:59] <Dr_Willis> RMorris84,  no idea. i dont worry abouyt eye candy that much.   note that the idea of 'themes' under linux is different from windows.. YOu can have window manager themes, and window decoration themes, and icon themes, and  'complete themes' that just set the other theme groups... and so on.
[03:59] <geokok> habeeb
[03:59] <Dr_Willis> Plus gnome and kde got their own themes..
[03:59] <habeeb> geokok:

[04:00] <Dr_Willis> habeeb,  the forum has a search feature.
[04:00] <sgcplayer> fyrestrtr, I tried "sudo cp -r /mnt/hda2/home /mnt/hda4/home" and it copied a few things, but then it started spitting out a bunch of errors, like cannot create regular file `/mnt/hda4/home/name/.openoffice....' etc (sorry, I thought this would be trivial/easy)
[04:00] <habeeb> Dr_Willis: wondering if you could do it directly from a firefox plugin.
[04:00] <habeeb> but its ok.
[04:00] <Dr_Willis> habeeb,  never noticed - that would be a little over kill. :P  There are a great many extensions avail for firefox. and you can customize the search box a great deal.
[04:01] <finalbeta> I'm on a 3ghz, yet Xorg takes up to 12% cpu at some points. Is it normal? COmpared to what I remember from windows, this is heavy for basic GUI.

[04:08] <IronEag1e> question: How would i go about setting up a Lexmark USB Printer in v.5.10
[04:08] <jfletcher> Healot: nope, just google.co.uk
[04:08] <DeeTahPanLtah> habeeb: thought of some free,linux one
[04:08] <geokok> why dont I receive your IM ?
[04:08] <IronEag1e> please msg me with a repsonse, for i am monitoring sever networks...
[04:08] <habeeb> DeeTahPanLtah: IMO, they are not worth it. Open-source is all right, but from what I've tried I didnt like them. And since I had an option for a windows one...
[04:08] <gboutwell> I'm trying to set-up a networked printer.... It's asking to select an ppd file... I have no idea where to find such a file if it even exists or why it's asking me for the file.
[04:08] <habeeb> geokok: Dunno :/
[04:08] <nox-Hand> w00t, got it ripping!
[04:08] <habeeb> geokok: which client?
[04:08] <CrazyMonkey> How can i delete a Startup Program in Sessions?
[04:09] <geokok> gaim
[04:09] <jfletcher> Healot: I have the default sources.list just with dappy replacing hoary, then I did apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:09] <jfletcher> this should work yea?
[04:09] <habeeb> geokok: irc on gaim?
[04:09] <geokok> yes
[04:09] <xopher> jfletcher, try dkpg-reconfigure firefox
[04:09] <habeeb> no idea geokok
[04:09] <habeeb> geokok: try X-chat or irssi... if you are sure you get no queries
[04:09] <geokok> How can I IM an other user if I am using gaim on this channel????
[04:10] <gboutwell> habeeb: I use gaim for irc all the time.. good enough for me
[04:10] <IronEag1e> question: How would i go about setting up a Lexmark USB Printer in v.5.10
[04:10] <jfletcher> xopher: same problem
[04:10] <jfletcher> I'm wondering if the firefox language packs have knackered up
[04:10] <habeeb> geokok: try /query <user> <msg> or /msg <user> <msg>
[04:10] <jfletcher> coz even the browsers file edit view things etc, are foobar'd
[04:10] <Eruantalon> Shouldn't I be able to play the example video with Nelson Mandela out of the box?
[04:10] <geokok> do I need the <> signs?
 hi I am using kubuntu, and installed xgl and compiz, now I installed gnome-desktop and want to use xgl and compiz under gnome, Until now I had a xgl entry in kdm so xgl would load then kde, now I want that entry to load gnome
 how can I do it
[04:10] <zerotime> * Ci-Dev_ is now known as Ci-Dev
[04:10] <ompaul> !upgrade
[04:10] <habeeb> geokok: of course not.
[04:10] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[04:11] <Eruantalon> Only the sound works for me. Any ideas to what might be wrong. This is a fresh install of ubuntu
[04:11] <habeeb> geokok: for example: /msg habeeb message
[04:11] <Eruantalon> Dapper
[04:11] <max_> can ubuntu desktop be set up to server dhcp addresses?
[04:11] <xxpor> !domain
[04:11] <ompaul> jfletcher, doing the update one step at a time is as far a I know a requirement
[04:11] <habeeb> geokok: That would send me a message saying "message"
[04:11] <IronEag1e> question: How would i go about setting up a Lexmark Z611 USB Printer in v.5.10
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about domain - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <jfletcher> ompaul: I would read them if I had a readable font in my browser
[04:11] <xxpor> how do i join a windows domain in drapper

[04:12] <IronEagle> question: How would i go about setting up a Lexmark Z611 USB Printer in v.5.10
[04:12] <fredl> does mythtv support the saa7134_alsa driver?
[04:12] <IronEagle> please reply in PM for i am monitoring several servers... Thank You.
[04:12] <Placid> IronEagle: use Cups
[04:12] <geokok> ok .. /msg did not work ...query worked but it says "user not logged in"
[04:12] <Placid> then they're not logged in :P
[04:13] <gboutwell> Can someone help me set-up a networked printer?  I'm most the way there, but it's asking for me to select an ppd file and I have no idea why or where to look for these files.
[04:13] <IronEagle> cups... ok, i'm new to linux so i'v got to learn what "Cups" is and if it is even installed
[04:13] <geokok> Can someone tell me how to IM another user> I am using gaim
[04:13] <habeeb> try quering me geokok
[04:13] <Placid> IronEagle: Which distro?
[04:13] <ompaul> jfletcher, what I am getting at is this - did you step from 5.04 to 5.10 to dapper?
[04:13] <Placid> IronEagle: Cups is some web based printer administration software
[04:13] <jfletcher> ompaul: yea
[04:13] <jfletcher> I heard you could.
[04:13] <Placid> IronEag1e: it's very powerful and is quite popular
[04:13] <geokok> i didi
[04:13] <Placid> IronEag1e: great for networking too I believe
[04:14] <heehoww> can anyone here help me with a scanner?
[04:14] <habeeb> geokok: :/
[04:14] <jfletcher> though I think you needed that DistUpgrader package to do it
[04:14] <geokok> this is stupid!!!!!
[04:14] <IronEag1e> Placid, : are you very familiar with this "Cups"?
[04:14] <habeeb> paste this geokok : /query habeeb message
[04:14] <ompaul> !register

[04:15] <geokok> I have a window opened with my messages but i obviously dont see them
[04:15] <geokok> Is anyone using gaim here for IRC???
[04:16] <Healot> i use a girl for chatting purposes
[04:16] <fredl> geokok - didn't know that's possible!
[04:16] <habeeb> geokok: gboutwell uses.
[04:16] <Captain_Fleming> How do I find out my ip with linux?
[04:16] <Eruantalon> Any idea to get video playback in Ubuntu?
[04:16] <fredl> Healot - me too.
[04:16] <nano-> sudo module-assistant auto-install vmware-player-kernel doesn't work.
[04:16] <fredl> Healot - well, a woman that is :-)
[04:16] <geokok> what do u mean>?? I am in this channel with gaim right now!!!
[04:16] <DeeTahPanLtah> just wondering... i've messed up while choosing paritions' size before installing linux-i've got too much space for my LFS and way not enough for ubuntu-will gparted be able to fix it,and will system still work after resizing?
[04:16] <max_> i am running ubuntu dapper desktop can it be configured to server dhcp addresses to another pc or do i have to have the server program to do this. I have tryed to configure it manually to give it a static ip but this is not working either any suggestions
[04:17] <Captain_Fleming> DeeTahPanLtah: Why not?
[04:17] <Eruantalon> DeeTahPanLtah: I very much believe so
[04:17] <jfletcher> xopher: I fixed it, just had to reinstall it
[04:17] <jfletcher> I think I knackered the language packs up
[04:17] <fredl> A general tip for people that ask questions here: Saying 'it doesn't work' usually doesn't mean anything. Give evidence of it not working by cutting and pasting what makes you think it 'doesn't work'
[04:17] <DeeTahPanLtah> cause ntfs would fuck up if i'd just it ;)
[04:17] <Captain_Fleming> Anyone here knows the command like ipconfig but then for linux?
[04:17] <Captain_Fleming> DeeTahPanLtah: Not here :)
[04:17] <fredl> Captain_Fleming, ifconfig
[04:18] <Captain_Fleming> fredl: lol, thnx :D
[04:18] <RMorris84> is there a way to make all my icons bigger?
[04:18] <DeeTahPanLtah> if df says ive got 96908 free space,he means kb or bytes?
[04:18] <ompaul> DeeTahPanLtah, do df -h
[04:18] <bbrazil> DeeTahPanLtah: blocks
[04:18] <DeeTahPanLtah> oh gosh!
[04:18] <bubukde> who can help me with x-plane
[04:18] <DeeTahPanLtah> 68mbs left
[04:19] <fredl> RMorris84, change your resolution?
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> DeeTahPanLtah: lol, you'll have to use less space it seems :p
[04:19] <[TOP] vip3r> ubuntu newbie here,  i installed the newest version and everything went good except when i rebooted it said that it could not find operating system. i need guidance :)
[04:19] <geokok> i am downloading xchat habeeb
[04:19] <DeeTahPanLtah> i got almost wholy my free space filled when i've decided to install my old debian packets
[04:19] <daurn|laptop> hi all
[04:19] <RMorris84> no i want them to be like 22x22 no 11x11 on my desktop
[04:19] <Eruantalon> I have a fresh install of Ubuntu Dapper. I try to play the example video but it doesn't work. What to do?
[04:19] <daurn|laptop> my computer froe
[04:19] <daurn|laptop> froze
[04:20] <daurn|laptop>  - how can i recover?
[04:20] <Brittany> getting any help yet max?
[04:20] <[TOP] vip3r> anyone run into that problem?
[04:20] <cappicard> RMorris84, just go under appearance on display properties and adjust them there
[04:20] <pItfalls> daurn|laptop: hard reboot
[04:20] <evil_bunny> How can i access a reiserFS partition using the live CD ?
[04:20] <daurn|laptop> pItfalls: without that resort
[04:20] <[TOP] vip3r> power down u mean?
[04:20] <djm62> daurn|laptop: how frozen is it? does the caps-lock key turn on the light?
[04:20] <fredl> RMorris84, well if you right click an icon on your desktop there's the 'Stretch Icon' menu choice.
[04:20] <max_> no not yet there are so replies i dont know which one is for what question
[04:21] <daurn|laptop> caps lock doesn't work
[04:21] <daurn|laptop> but mouse does
[04:21] <fredl> RMorris84, does that help?
[04:21] <pItfalls> daurn|laptop: ctrl+backspace doenst work?
[04:21] <daurn|laptop>  - keyboard doesn't do anything
[04:21] <max_> to many replies and nothing that looks like it belongs to my question
[04:21] <ryanpg> is there a way to determine what repository an upgraded package will come from? there's an official ubuntu version and a 2nd party repository version - how will I know which I'll get?
[04:21] <pItfalls> daurn|laptop: that will kill xserver
[04:21] <max_> i thought it was a pretty straight forward question
[04:21] <Brittany> just ask again then i guess
[04:21] <djm62> daurn|laptop: ctrl-backspace will reset the graphics...
[04:21] <Eruantalon> pItfalls:  ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:21] <geokok> habeeb ...tell me u see the msg now
[04:21] <fredl> ryanpg, same versions?
[04:21] <Brittany> its been a long while sence i was last on irc as well..
[04:22] <habeeb> geokok: I dont.
[04:22] <ryanpg> fredl, don't know
[04:22] <daurn|laptop> ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing
[04:22] <DeeTahPanLtah> i've got my packets already unpacked ,will configuring 400 packets actually take 100 mbs out?
[04:22] <max_> yes years for me
[04:22] <daurn|laptop> i think the keyboard has stopped working
[04:22] <habeeb> geokok: What did you do?
[04:22] <pItfalls> Eruantalon: of course...
[04:22] <RMorris84> fred they dont show up correctly
[04:22] <RMorris84> they look strecthed...
[04:22] <geokok> i am on xchat
[04:22] <fir3> hi
[04:22] <djm62> daurn|laptop: is there anything that might be stopping the keyboard from working? (low batterries, loose wire etc)
[04:22] <max_> and to start in a linux chat room is brutal
[04:22] <geokok> tbut have no idea how to use it
[04:22] <max_> lol
[04:22] <ryanpg> fredl, the package is compiz-core... 0.0.12.38 is installed 0.0.13.39 is to be installed, but I don't know if the new version is from ubuntu or the 2nd party repo
[04:22] <Brittany> lol, oh i know!!
[04:22] <fredl> RMorris84, well that's because you stretched them, right?
[04:22] <fir3> someone here using ubuntu on the macbook?
[04:23] <gnomefreak> daurn|laptop: compiz/xgl?
[04:23] <RMorris84> yeah but i have .png icons that look super sweet not strecthed lol
[04:23] <pItfalls> ryanpg: its from compiz repos
[04:23] <daurn|laptop> ah
[04:23] <daurn|laptop> i can get into ssh with it
[04:23] <Paddy_EIRE> dose anyone wanna help me with my keyboard error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21647
[04:23] <djm62> daurn|laptop: if you had sshd running you could try sshing in
[04:23] <ryanpg> pItfalls, ty but how do you know?
[04:23] <Eruantalon> I think the ratio between helpers and people in need of help is way wrong
[04:23] <evil_bunny> How can i access a reiserFS partition using the live CD ? when i trying to use disk manager to enable it is saying that it is inacessable
[04:23] <[TOP] vip3r> heh
[04:23] <pItfalls> ryanpg: no compiz core in ubuntu repos
[04:23] <fredl> RMorris84, oh I see, you want to replace your current icons with new icons, is that why you were asking about copying in /usr/share/icons before?
[04:23] <geokok> habeeb...u r greek?
[04:23] <habeeb> geokok: ye
[04:24] <ryanpg> pItfalls, err... I don't think that's true of edgy
[04:24] <geokok> lolololol
[04:24] <geokok> oxi re file
[04:24] <ezenu> With apache, I can successfully follow symlinks to things on my / partition -- but I cannot follow symlinks to things on my other hard drives which are mounted (and which I have ownership to). Even to chmodded 777 things. ?? I get "Forbidden" .. anyone know?
[04:24] <djm62> daurn|laptop: :-D always handy.  see if you can run anything with DISPLAY=:0
[04:24] <geokok> ti les tora
[04:24] <habeeb> hehe
[04:24] <CorruptKode> Whats the temp root command again?
[04:24] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: Luckily many helpees turn into helpers
[04:24] <daurn|laptop> djm62???
[04:24] <fredl> CorruptKode, sudo
[04:24] <evil_bunny> habeeb means friend or what ?
[04:24] <gnomefreak> ryanpg: compiz is in multiverse in dapper and edgy
[04:24] <CorruptKode> hehe thanks
[04:24] <habeeb> evil_bunny: habeeb means nothing :P
[04:24] <geokok> pos tha doulepsei i malakia?
[04:24] <pItfalls> ryanpg: dont know edgy - wrong place ;)
[04:24] <djm62> daurn|laptop: actually, never mind.  if the mouse is working then X is ok
[04:24] <habeeb> geokok: get in #shithole
[04:24] <RMorris84> yeah i figured that out tho... but the icons have like an 11x11 version and i was wanting to use some of the 22x22 ones on my desktop
[04:25] <DeeTahPanLtah> i've got to move my /home/username directory to another parition. is it okay if i just edit it in /etc/passwd and move the files?
[04:25] <ryanpg> pItfalls, thanks but the question is a general one not directly related to any distro
[04:25] <gnomefreak> habeeb: watch your language
[04:25] <daurn|laptop> ok
[04:25] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: I can't seem to even get a response to my problem. Probably because the channel is pretty busy in the first place. I almost can't keep up reading it all.
[04:25] <evil_bunny> hmm maybe i cant use the partition cause the access path is "none" what shoiuld that be ?
[04:25] <fredl> RMorris84, well you could select 'Properties' of the icon on your desktop, and then click on the icon itself in the properties window. Then you can change which icon is used.
[04:25] <daurn|laptop> someone else i was asking told me to CASS+sub
[04:25] <daurn|laptop> that did something
[04:25] <Paddy_EIRE> be back later
[04:26] <daurn|laptop> ... but waht?
[04:26] <erUSUL> DeeTahPanLtah: a better aproach imho is to mount that partition under home (edit fstab) and move your home dir to there
[04:26] <Brittany> does anyone know what we have to do to get dhcp running on ubuntu desktop?  max and i are total newbs but we can figure out networking. i think max has dhcp installed in dapper drake, 2 nics in the machine, we tried firestarter and found out that ubuntu doesnt come out of the box with dhcp so max installed that, now what do we need to do to get it running. were just looking for a NAT...
[04:26] <Brittany> ...box/test box, nothing mission critical. any other documentation besides the manuals that come with ubuntu?  thanks for your help >:-)
[04:26] <ryanpg> maybe if I generalize the question a bit more: how can I know what repository an package to be installed comes from?
[04:26] <DeeTahPanLtah> erUSUL: my way would mess up?
[04:26] <gnomefreak> ryanpg: apt-cache policy package
[04:26] <ryanpg> gnomefreak, thanks, I'll give that a shot! :)
[04:27] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: I can look at it but I type at 12 wpm now, very slowly
[04:27] <fredl> AAAAAAAARGH now I thought I finally figured out my audio mute... not tux racer plays really loud audio!
[04:27] <fredl> not=now
[04:27] <RMorris84> lol
[04:28] <ryanpg> gnomefreak, thanks that showed me just what I needed
[04:28] <DeeTahPanLtah> fredl: well,afaik in linux 100% volume just sucks.
[04:28] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: This is my problem: I have a fresh install of Ubuntu Dapper. I try to play the example video but it doesn't work. What to do?
[04:28] <fredl> when I click MUTE, I want my computer to be QUIET
[04:28] <evil_bunny> aghh can someone help me enable this partition!
[04:28] <Eruantalon> Isn't it supposed to work out of the box
[04:28] <Eruantalon> >?
[04:28] <erUSUL> DeeTahPanLtah: i've never tried... dunno in teory it should not...

[04:30] <Brittany> can someone point me in the right direction for dapper networking?
[04:30] <bbrazil> Brittany: /etc/network/interfaces
[04:30] <carl0s> Brittany what do you need?
[04:30] <fredl> evil_bunny, sorry no experience with reiserfs here :/
[04:30] <fredl> Brittany, what do you want to know?
[04:30] <Brittany> max and i are total newbs but we can figure out networking. i think max has dhcp installed in dapper drake, 2 nics in the machine, we tried firestarter and found out that ubuntu doesnt come out of the box with dhcp so max installed that, now what do we need to do to get it running. were just looking for a NAT box/test box, nothing mission critical. any other documentation besides the manuals...
[04:30] <Brittany> ...that come with ubuntu?
[04:31] <max_> do you have to be in sudo to change the interfaces
[04:31] <RMorris84> i used automatix to get mp3 support working, after it finished, i tried to open up amarok and my music just zipped through the playlist and all of it took like 2 seconds, but i can open music in vlc any help?
[04:31] <fredl> max_, yes.
[04:31] <heehoww> does anyone can help me with xsane?
[04:31] <evil_bunny> fredl: can i format the partition using some other filesystem (say ext3) without trashing the others ?
[04:31] <carl0s> is dhclient eth0 working Brittany
[04:31] <Brittany> we tried out ubuntu server and once presented with a blank command line we knew we were in over our heads, so we installed dapper desktop
[04:32] <fredl> evil_bunny, yes, with mkfs
[04:32] <mtholdenss> how do u bridge net connection to another computer in ubuntu?
[04:32] <Brittany> yep, eth0 and eth1 are working
[04:32] <CorruptKode> Is Ubuntu's kernal configured to mount ntfs?
[04:32] <carl0s> no nvidia-glx for ppc solution?
[04:32] <CorruptKode> Doesnt seem to work
[04:32] <max_> this shows the adapter settings and how to change them?
[04:32] <DeeTahPanLtah> CorruptKode: im example it is ;)
[04:32] <fredl> Brittany, haha you don't lkike the commandline?
[04:32] <pItfalls> Brittany: did u have a look in system>Admin>Networktools
[04:33] <Healot> YES, CorruptKode, the installer should list all after the install
[04:33] <DeeTahPanLtah> btw,afaik recent kernel supports even ntfs writing,in case if you're not changing the filesize ;p
[04:33] <Brittany> max is typing away here, he's been the one trying to get it running, i'll let you chat with him
[04:33] <Healot> btw, if you problem, follow the next factoid
[04:33] <Healot> !mount
[04:33] <fredl> CorruptKode, yeah I think so (not sure) but *writing* something on an NTFS may be difficult.
[04:33] <max_> because it system defaults to ethernet0 and i set it backwards on the original install i think i have to change them around in the root
[04:33] <evil_bunny> fredl: cant i do it using the ubuntu installer (sinze i will use the partition for ubuntu) ?
[04:33] <Brittany> i'm on my windows box using chatzilla, lol
[04:33] <CorruptKode> not trying to write... thats a no no
[04:33] <akihiro> hi
[04:34] <fir3> i tried installing the ubuntu serverm but the installation hangs at "installing elilo bootloader". how can i cancel the bootloader installation?
[04:34] <fredl> evil_bunny, you still have to install Ubuntu? Then why don't you simply trash the partition and include it in your root partition?
[04:34] <pItfalls> Brittany: its system>admin>networking on gnome-desktop
[04:34] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[04:34] <CorruptKode> it's "mounted" but i can't open it
[04:34] <Ackeubu_> hey i installed edgy and i got a configure error on "gtk-engines-eazel" , "subprocess post-installation script returned error" What does that mean? no response on google
[04:34] <Brittany> yep
[04:34] <CorruptKode> it says i don't have permission
[04:34] <RMorris84>  i used automatix to get mp3 support working, after it finished, i tried to open up amarok and my music just zipped through the playlist and all of it took like 2 seconds, but i can open music in vlc any help?
[04:34] <CorruptKode> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "win"
[04:34] <fredl> CorruptKode, yeah, try sudo bash and then cd into it
[04:35] <evil_bunny> fredl: its a dual boot system.
[04:35] <engla> RMorris84: restart rhythmbox?
[04:35] <max_> yes i have used the network tool to configure both the ethernet interfaces
[04:35] <Brittany> max_ is on the machine in question
[04:35] <CorruptKode> bash: cd: /mnt/win: Permission denied
[04:35] <Bazzi> RMorris84: I think easyubuntu is the better(tm) way at the moment (better than automatix)
[04:35] <max_> yes
[04:35] <akihiro> d
[04:35] <fredl> evil_bunny, *confused* so you already HAVE a dual boot system. Is Ubuntu already installed?
[04:35] <CorruptKode> sudo dident work eather
[04:35] <idefix> about babylon, how do you know which number is which language?
[04:35] <Eruantalon> Anyone else have trouble viewing the example file in Ubuntu?
[04:36] <fredl> CorruptKode, try 'sudo bash' in a terminal window
[04:36] <Brittany> we tried sys>admin>networking but it wont let him use internet connection sharing, gives him a dhcp and dns error
[04:36] <jimmygoon> or sudo -s
[04:36] <CorruptKode> ok i'm in root now
[04:36] <Brittany> he installed dhcp server
[04:36] <jimmygoon> Eruantalon: what example file?
[04:36] <fredl> CorruptKode, now cd into the directory.
[04:37] <Brittany> here, i'll let him explain it
[04:37] <evil_bunny> fredl: i have a dual boot (gentoo and windows) i want to change gentoo with ubuntu. and i am currently using the live cd :)
[04:37] <CorruptKode> works
[04:37] <CorruptKode> hanks
[04:37] <CorruptKode> thanks*
[04:37] <Brittany> hang on, he's in terminal right now...
[04:37] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: libtheora0 should be enough and should come with the default installation
[04:37] <fredl> evil_bunny, oh I see. Well do you simply want to trash the existing gentoo then? in that case you just let the Ubuntu installer use the gentoo partition for the install, right?
[04:37] <habeeb> ctrl+c doesnt work? :/ I cant stop the current process in the terminal :/
[04:38] <CorruptKode> anyway to make it useable in places->computer
[04:38] <An0n> ok, any recomendations for video editing?.. home vids and such
[04:38] <evil_bunny> great :)
[04:39] <fredl> CorruptKode, hmm I have wondered about that myself earlier and not found  an adequate solution because in fact I hardly ever browse my windows partition  anymore :)
[04:39] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: jimmygoon I am trying to view the Nelson mandela file
[04:39] <Eruantalon> Fresh install. Doesn't work.
[04:39] <CorruptKode> i can open it now but nothing is in there and props say unreadable
[04:39] <jimmygoon> not familiar with that file :S
[04:39] <idefix> when you add the translation menu to one of your panels, how can you add a language? I cannot see what number to enter for the language I choose
[04:40] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: jimmygoon?
[04:40] <Eruantalon> jimmygoon: Go into your home directory there should be a directory called Examples
[04:40] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: Just the other goy who responded
[04:40] <jimmygoon> I deleted it :(
[04:41] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: Do you have libtheora0?
[04:41] <Eruantalon> Well it is a ogg.theora file. The soudn play ok. But no picture
[04:41] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: can i check that while apt-get run somewhere else?
[04:42] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: sudo apt-get install libtheora0
[04:42] <Eruantalon> Lynoure: Maybe I should say that i had the same problem before i reformatted(that is why i reformatted) No movie will play.
[04:42] <Lynoure> Eruantalon: What did you install from?
[04:43] <Eruantalon> Dapper cds sent to me from Canonical
[04:44] <pItfalls> Eruantalon: run gstreamer-properties and try changing the default video output plugin - just an ideo
[04:44] <Eruantalon> pItfalls: thx will try
[04:45] <jimmygoon> list
[04:45] <Eruantalon> pItfalls: Change it to what?
[04:45] <xxpor> omg
[04:45] <pItfalls> what is it now?
[04:46] <xxpor> i fucked up /etc/pam.d/sudo, now how do i fix it
[04:46] <pItfalls> Eruantalon: No Xv
[04:46] <Eruantalon> THanks that worked!!!!!
[04:46] <pItfalls> Eruantalon: your welcome :)
[04:46] <Eruantalon> Should I file a bug at launchpad?
[04:47] <pItfalls> its not a bug - its a feature imho ;)
[04:47] <evil_bunny> fredl: should i select manualy edit partition table in setup ?
[04:47] <kaosx> hello everyone
[04:47] <Eruantalon> pItfalls: Well out of the box no video support is imho a bug
[04:48] <Eruantalon> What does Xv do?

[04:49] <vdepizzol> How can I update my ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06 with apt-cdrom?
[04:49] <fmarostica> hi all
[04:49] <fmarostica> I try use my USB Drive
[04:49] <fmarostica> /dev/sda1 on /media/FAT32 DRIVE type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1002,gid=1001,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)
[04:49] <fmarostica> /dev/sda2 on /media/EXT3 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
[04:49] <fmarostica> Why i dont write permission in EXT3 ?
[04:49] <kaosx> vdepizzol: ive never done it but Im guessing you can add the dapper cd to your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[04:50] <evil_bunny> fredl , still alive ?lol
[04:50] <vdepizzol> kaosx: I did this with "Add cdrom", from Sinaptic. But then I try to update or dist-upgrade and nothing happens
[04:51] <kaosx> vdepizzol: any error messages?
[04:51] <vdepizzol> kaosx: no
[04:51] <kaosx> odd
[04:51] <kaosx> your net connection slow?
[04:52] <Eruantalon> What does Xv do and what is it?
[04:52] <habeeb> A good p2p program for linux? :/ Limewire needs too much memory, and I dont like gtkgnutella
[04:52] <kaosx> vdepizzol: i can walk you through doing it over the net if youve got a decent connection
[04:52] <jimmygoon> habeeb - apollon can connect to at least 4 different p2p networks
[04:52] <kaosx> habeeb: isnt there a free version of limewire?
[04:52] <jimmygoon> frostwire
[04:52] <habeeb> kaosx: yes.

[04:56] <martianul`> to see all ... :|
[04:56] <sixtsixfps> i have a SATA drive and i use sda instead of hda, does this mean in grub config my boot partition is sd0,0 or does grub still see it as hd0,0 ?

[04:56] <martianul`> how can i change the rezolution?

[04:59] <sharperguy> are there any AIML interpreters i can get via apt-get?

[04:59] <IronEag1e> ok chalcedony  i'm here

[05:00] <kaosx> you want the monitor section

[05:02] <martianul`> i will take notes and try again to install
[05:02] <jimmygoon> abhinay: no... you need to remove XGL so that we can install AIGLX
[05:02] <atoponce> any ideas?
[05:02] <jimmygoon> AIGLX will work ;)
[05:02] <martianul`> if it won`t work i`ll be back :)
[05:02] <martianul`> thanks
[05:03] <abhinay> jimmygoon, I have some issues with AIGLX , so iam installing XGL

[05:04] <jimmygoon> what issues do you have with AIGLX? I'm confused... AIGLX will work better than XGL with an intel card...
[05:04] <abhinay> jimmygoon, GNOME (failed to start) doesn't start with AIGLX
[05:04] <jimmygoon> what process did you use to install AIGLX
[05:04] <lastnode> what's the rar package again?
[05:04] <abhinay> jimmygoon, Intel processor, Intel motherboard
[05:04] <rixth> lastnode, rar & unrar

[05:05] <max_> how do i get into the network interfaces directory to see how it is set up ...once i have logged into the terminal...do i still have to use sudo infront of the command /etc/network/interfaces or is there another command i need to use to get into the directory
[05:05] <jimmygoon> abhinay: what guide did you use to install AIGLX?
[05:05] <rixth> max_, run ifconfig
[05:05] <abhinay> jimmygoon, i used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145068&highlight=aiglx

[05:07] <johnnowak> hello everyone. i'm running ubuntu dapper (server) on an aluminum powerbook. i installed all the xorg packages I could find (including -core and xserver-xorg). When I start X via the startx command, the screen goes all wonky and I have to restart (I can't kill X). I ran dpkg-reconfigure on xserver-org and tried manually using fbdev instead of the ati driver, but no luck.
[05:07] <W_McL> KenSentMe: search for skype_dsp_hijacker
[05:07] <UbuntuUser> what's the command to run the xserver config wizard?
[05:08] <max_> so i type run ipconfig
[05:08] <chalcedony> hi IronEag1e :))
[05:08] <IronEag1e> hi linuxboy
[05:08] <jimmygoon> abhinay: I'm looking at ubuntuforums.org and it looks like you /can/ get xgl with intel but the performance is much better (This is from the guides and from personal experince) with AIGLX so I would recommend that more than XGL... esp when XGL isn't working either
[05:08] <IronEag1e> grrrr hi chalcedony
[05:08] <johnnowak> UbuntuUser: I think dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:08] <jimmygoon> I have to go :(
[05:08] <chalcedony> johnnowak: nicely asked question :)
[05:08] <tjcarter> UbuntuUser: please change your nick--and it depends whether you want to run the debconf thing or the x.org thing..
[05:09] <johnnowak> chalcedony: well I'm looking for a nice answer :)
[05:09] <chalcedony> johnnowak: i wish i knew enough to give you it :)
[05:09] <raghu206> abhinay, did u get anything
[05:09] <tjcarter> ubotu: johnnowak's solution is the debconf way
[05:09] <tjcarter> chalcedony!
[05:10] <johnnowak> ubotu: is there an alternative solution I myself could try in order to maybe get this to work?
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is there an alternative solution I myself could try in order to maybe get this to work? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <tjcarter> chalcedony: we see so little of Zeph these days...
[05:10] <johnnowak> oops. :)
[05:10] <johnnowak> i mean tjcarter :)
[05:10] <UbuntuUser> what's the difference between ImPS/2 and ExplorerPS/2
[05:10] <UbuntuUser> ?
[05:10] <tjcarter> johnnowak: to configure X?  =)
[05:10] <johnnowak> tjcarter: yes :)
[05:11] <tjcarter> UbuntuUser: ImPS/2 is 3 button + wheel.  ExplorerPS/2 is more buttons
[05:11] <UbuntuUser> ok
[05:11] <tjcarter> johnnowak: did you install mdetect, read-edid, and discover?
[05:11] <johnnowak> I'm thinking the problem is that I'm missing something on the server install that's on the desktop, because it appears to work fine.
[05:11] <tjcarter> johnnowak: that makes xserver-xorg way smarter.
[05:11] <chalcedony> tjcarter: awww sorry to hear that . . he's gotten employed
[05:11] <chalcedony> tjcarter: where do you know him from?
[05:12] <tjcarter> chalcedony: #Twilight  =D
[05:12] <IronEag1e> anyone familiar with cups and USB printers?
[05:12] <UbuntuUser> if i have a middle button should i tell it not to emulate ?
[05:12] <johnnowak> tjcarter: I'm not sure I follow -- I should install those you mean?
[05:12] <tjcarter> chalcedony: note /whois
[05:12] <chalcedony> lol tjcarter okies i'll poke him for you
[05:12] <johnnowak> UbuntuUser: yes
[05:12] <jan_> #german-bash
[05:13] <KenSentMe> W_McL: thanks, but this problem occurs with more programs, not only skype
[05:13] <johnnowak> tjcarter: ah, sorry, i misread that :)
[05:13] <johnnowak> tjcarter: let me install them
[05:13] <IronEag1e> Chal, i have to run for a few mins, be back in a few mins.
[05:13] <BeepAU> hey guys, what should i use to make a website? what's the equivalent of frontpage?
[05:13] <tjcarter> johnnowak: yeah, xserver-xorg debconf config can use discover to autoprobe your video card if it's not too new (mine is), mdetect to figure out your mouse (USB is easy enough without it), and your monitor (by asking the monitor what its specs are)
[05:13] <chalcedony> IronEag1e: i'm glad to show you this place. hang out and you'll begin to see answers.
[05:13] <ISOLATEDViRuS> http://halocom.biz/images/teabag.gif

[05:15] <eletido> max_: got me the first time too.
[05:15] <BeepAU> Thunderpants -- what do you reccomend?
[05:15] <johnnowak> ah well -- i don't need no stinking X anyway!
[05:15] <phiber_optic> hey Dr_Willis  how are u? I tried using different live cds but it didnt work
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> hmm..  thats odd
[05:16] <phiber_optic> Dr_Willis, i think its a prob with the mobo could it be??
[05:16] <DeeTahPanLtah> ive got _terrible_ problem with X.
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> could be.
[05:17] <raghu206> my system ones logged out unable to login some one help pls
[05:17] <tjcarter> chalcedony: so, I see you've gotten yourself a little more comfortable with Linux--I remember you asking me about the O'Reilly book back in Atlanta some years ago.  I no longer recommend it--Ubuntu is easier to figure out than the book was.  =D
[05:17] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> (EE) NV(0): Failed to open framebuffer device, consult warnings and/or errors above for possible reasons
[05:17] <CorruptKode> Anyone running Wine?

[05:17] <tjcarter> Like 2000 or so?
[05:17] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> it's looking for /dev/fb files but none found

[05:18] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> how do i? ;<
[05:18] <phiber_optic> Dr_Willis, so what do u suggest me to do?
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> WHY are you evev using the fb?
[05:18] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> well,i just reconfigured xorg
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> configurt it right.
[05:18] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> to make it work with 1280x1024
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> :)
[05:19] <DeeTahPa1Ltah> it'd be easier if i knew what did i mess up
[05:19] <phiber_optic> Dr_Willis, do u know how can I configure my onboard mother board to be a 5.1?
[05:19] <DeeTahPanLtah> how do i turn this...framebuffer off?
[05:20] <gnomefreak> DeeTahPanLtah: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> 5.1 ia 'relative'  you even GOT a 5.1 sound source to play?
[05:20] <DeeTahPanLtah> kay thanks
[05:22] <phiber_optic> yes thats what it says in the motherboard book
[05:22] <ezenu> My laptop is set to mount a samba share using smbfs in the /etc/fstab -- however, it does not mount -- sudo mount -a gives "8306: Connection failed" -- But it works with the firewall completely turned off on the samba share server.  My firestarter -- ipconfig -- allows all connections for 192.168.0.1/8 (local network) and 445, 139
[05:22] <phiber_optic> that I could use a 6 channel,
[05:23] <ezenu> What else do I need to allow through the firewall?
[05:23] <yanis> hi,every time I use apt-get I get the following error log: http://pastebin.ca/150137 does anybody know how to deal with it?
[05:23] <afflux> morgen...
[05:23] <kaosx>  ezenu: ports 137-139
[05:23] <raghu206> 3ddeskd: Please configure hardware acceleration. how to solve this problem
[05:23] <kaosx> are the normal smb ports
[05:24] <bbrazil> yanis: assuming you're using only official sources, file a bug on language-selector-common
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> raghu206,  install the drivers for your card.
[05:24] <raghu206> Dr_Willis, pls say how to do that
[05:24] <ezenu> kaosx, ok, i'll try that. But I thought it would work cause firestarter says "Allow connections from host: 192.168.0.1/8" -- I thought that should allow everything through from the local network
[05:24] <don_jr> I'm trying to install ubuntu in text mode from alternate cd on a box with XP, it keeps locking up at 'loading partioner"  any reason as to why?
[05:24] <_jvbryne> sftp:// protocol handler give a "malformed url" when trying to open "sftp:///user:pass@server.tld" - works in network places, but it's kind of a bummer - any pointers?
[05:25] <kaosx> ezenu: ive never used firestarter so im not sure of how it works
[05:25] <_jvbryne> (only // ofc ^^ )
[05:25] <ezenu> kaosx, its just a GUI frontend to iptables
[05:25] <yanis> bbrazil: is 'universe' official?
[05:25] <j00b> serpentine no longer writes discs for me: GStreamer-CRITICAL **:
[05:25] <j00b> Trying to dispose element capsfilter2, but it is not in the NULL state.
[05:25] <kaosx> ahhh
[05:25] <idefix_> is the program LImeWire legal?
[05:25] <kaosx> ok
[05:25] <j00b> can't find anything in the forums
[05:25] <phiber_optic> any ideas Dr_Willis
[05:25] <phiber_optic> ?
[05:25] <jman8888> idefix, Depends.. ;p
[05:25] <rixth> idefix, depends what you use it for
[05:25] <kaosx> idefix_: yeah, its legal, some of the stuff you might download might not be legal
[05:25] <abhinay>  i have Intel processor & Intel motherboard, my glxinfo | grep rendering output > http://pastebin.com/776489 ; Any Suggestions ?
[05:26] <kaot> phiber_optic: you still messing with that sound card?
[05:26] <phiber_optic> kaot,  lol yess...
[05:26] <idefix_> kaosx, how do you find out if it's legal or not?
[05:26] <kaot> phiber_optic: man.  ouch.
[05:26] <mtholdenss> help pls same thing happened to me, i try to log into xgl and black screen appears then goes back to log in
 use frostwire its better
[05:26] <kaosx> what kind of files are you going to be downloading?
[05:26] <DeeTahPanLtah> ...worked
[05:26] <bbrazil> yanis: yes
[05:26] <phiber_optic> kaot, I would like to confiugre my onboard f*** the soundblaster but the onboard only gives me 2 channel
[05:26] <bbrazil> yanis: you on edgy?
[05:27] <idefix_> I had some Jiskefet-movies, dutch student humor movies.. a TV-series it was once
[05:27] <DeeTahPanLtah> there was a line in Xorg.conf to remove
[05:27] <raghu206> Dr_Willis, how to install drivers
[05:27] <jman8888> Whats the big difference between 5.04-5.10-6.06?
[05:27] <phiber_optic> kaot, any ideas?
[05:27] <ezenu> kaosx, it still fails to mount if I have every port blocked except for 137,138,139,445 open for all
[05:27] <kaosx> idefix_: what kind of files are you planning on downloading?
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> !ait
[05:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ait - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> !ati
[05:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> !nvidia
[05:27] <kaosx> hmm
[05:27] <idefix_> well, a friend installed this program when he visited me
[05:28] <UbuntuUser> how do i make a filesystem writeable in mtab?
[05:28] <idefix_> since my PC crashed when I ran it I'm thinking "maybe it's because something's illegal?"
[05:28] <raghu206> Dr_Willis, intel on board graphics
[05:28] <kaosx> idefiz_: no, thats not it, most likely at least.
[05:28] <UbuntuUser>  /dev/hdc1 /web vfat rw 0 0
[05:28] <UbuntuUser> how do i make that writable
[05:28] <jman8888> idefix, Its not limewire (Probally)
[05:28] <kaosx> ive never seen an "illegal" app crash a linux box
[05:28] <kaot> phiber_optic: none at all.  I was just wondering
[05:28] <kaosx> or "illegal" files
[05:29] <max_> do i have to have the dhcp3 server root installed in order for my pc to use the dhcp to another pc
[05:29] <jman8888> idefix, Plus if you arent running it it shouldnt do anything...
[05:29] <UbuntuUser> there's such thing as illegal apps?
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> in ubuntu?
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> im wondering what could be stolen
[05:29] <max_> yes desktop
[05:29] <phiber_optic> anyone here know how to confiugre sound cards??
[05:29] <kaosx> UbuntuUser: note the quotations
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> ...cedega? ;D
[05:29] <kaosx> i wasnt being literal
[05:29] <UbuntuUser> oh
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> phiber_optic: maybe,what's wrong?
[05:29] <UbuntuUser> lol
[05:29] <Healot> UbuntuUser: YES, e.g. libdvdcss -)
[05:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> xD
[05:30] <jman8888> Why is it illegal to have codecs?
[05:30] <Paddy_EIRE> it aint
[05:30] <maihem> Healot: what makes you think libdvdcss is illegal?
[05:30] <UbuntuUser> how do i make /dev/hdc1 /web vfat rw 0 0 writable?
[05:30] <phiber_optic> DeeTahPanLtah, my onboard sound card is capable of giving 6 channel but it only gives 2 channel i dont know how to change it
[05:30] <xopher> jman8888, patent issues
[05:30] <Healot> read the news mayhem?
[05:30] <W_McL> jman8888: because the music and movie industry wants it to be illegal
[05:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> phiber_optic: oh damn,about this one neither do i ;p
[05:30] <xopher> jman8888, in europe its legal ;)
[05:30] <_jvbryne> where do i start looking if i want to use sftp:// directly from apps? (quanta) - dapper 6.06 wont let me
[05:30] <max_> i can get a ip from the host dhcp but will ubuntu desktop give one out dhcp
[05:30] <jman8888> How can i convert Mp3 ,Mpg, Avi ect to Open formats?
[05:30] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how to fix this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21647
[05:30] <kaosx> ezenu: I wonder what's up then, does your firewall rule allow traffic both ways?
[05:31] <maihem> Healot: link to the news?
[05:31] <Healot> !mp3
[05:31] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:31] <kaot> ezenu: you trying to mount samba shares or something?
[05:31] <Healot> follow the factoids
[05:31] <yanis> bbrazil: no,6.06
[05:31] <Healot> maihem: Google for the news about DVD John, DVDCSS etc...
[05:31] <ezenu> kaot, yes -- it only works if I have my samba server firewall completely turned off -- not just 137-139 and 445 open
[05:32] <earth|afk> hello
[05:32] <kaosx> ezenu: are you doing it by hostname or IP address?
[05:32] <W_McL> jman8888: for converting mp3 there exists a package "mp32ogg"
[05:32] <spinz8r> after modifying xorg.conf and presiing Ctrl X and Y, it asked to save named file? Do i just give it any name? isn't the edited file should reside in xorg.conf?How do i make sure the edited file will work? tks.
[05:32] <ezenu> kaosx, I think it should -- in the GUI, it says Outbound traffic policy is permissive by default -- I can paste my iptables someplace
[05:32] <geokok> I need someone who uses firefix to ask a question
[05:32] <kaot> ezenu: you're allowing both udp and tcp right?
[05:32] <idefix__> well my PC crashed twice while running LimeWire
[05:32] <maihem> Healot: You're thinking about DeCSS. The judge ruled it was illegal because it was written to rip DVDs on Windows. libdvdcss won't rip a dvd
[05:32] <idefix__> it just did again :-(
[05:32] <idefix__> linux isn't supposed to stop responding!
[05:32] <idefix__> linux is perfect!
[05:32] <kaosx> idefix_: uninstall limewire then
[05:32] <maihem> Although I could write a one line bash script that will do that in the prescence of gstreamer
[05:32] <jman8888> W_McL, does it have a gui. (I have about 200 Mp3's TO convert and that would be to much terminal)
[05:33] <ezenu> kaot, i'm not sure -- i'm using Firestarter to manage iptables
[05:33] <idefix__> ok
[05:33] <earth|afk> got a question: is the distro upgrade of ubuntu as easy as debian's "apt-get upgrade <package>" ?
[05:33] <ezenu> kaosx, I'm using smbfs mounting by servername e.g. //mybox/homes -- but using firewall settings via local ip address
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> earth|afk,  identical
[05:33] <earth|afk> omg
[05:33] <earth|afk> good
[05:33] <earth|afk> :D
[05:33] <chamo> hello
[05:33] <chamo> is there a way to tell ubuntu to remember copy buffer even when application is closed ??
[05:34] <W_McL> jman8888: it's a commandline program, but you can give it a list of files or a directory
[05:34] <dasos> i have a .mid file i want to play, but audacity, vlc, nor the default movie playing software will play it, is there a configuration thing i need to do with my sound settings?
[05:34] <UbuntuUser> how do i make
[05:34] <UbuntuUser>  /dev/hdc1       /web            vfat    rw 0 0
[05:34] <UbuntuUser> writable
[05:34] <Dr_Willis> use a clipboard keeper tool chamo
[05:34] <UbuntuUser> in the fstab
[05:34] <kaosx> kaot: would ezenu need port 53 open as well for hostname mapping?
[05:34] <Healot> UbuntuUser: : already writable
[05:34] <CorruptKode> Any know a Wiki for install Alsa?
[05:34] <UbuntuUser> it wont let me write
[05:34] <W_McL> jman8888: wich is more effective than clicking around in a GUI
[05:34] <max_> well again thanks for the help i will return with some more newbie questions later
[05:34] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuUser, use umask= option
[05:35] <Healot> writeable for whom, normal user like you, UbuntuUser?
[05:35] <UbuntuUser> yes
[05:35] <UbuntuUser> admin
[05:35] <UbuntuUser> is da username
[05:35] <azulblue> How do I make amarok the only program that opens when my ipod is plugged in and not rythembox
[05:35] <ezenu> kaosx, tried allowing 53 -- same thing
[05:35] <kaot> kaosx: no that works a bit differently, uses nmb for hostname resolution
[05:35] <johnnowak> I'm getting an error with X that it is unable to open SecurityPolicy -- could this cause it to abort?
[05:35] <UbuntuUser> prefarably globaly writable
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> UbuntuUser, use umask= option for that
[05:35] <bengoodger> would anyone like to suggest a reason for edgy's X to be utterly and totally screwed?
[05:36] <earth|afk> where could i find hardware compatibility lists or is there any software that would probe my box and see if my hardware is compatible with latest ubuntu ????
[05:36] <geokok> anybody using fireifox here please?
[05:36] <don_jr> On the alternate cd what is "install in OEM mode"??
[05:36] <jman8888> W_McL, How do i do it? Like to convert all mp3's in /Me/Music ?
[05:36] <kaosx> kaot: thanks, it was just an idea, im still very new to linux...all my experience has just beein in OSX and networking
[05:36] <UbuntuUser> is 000 global?
[05:36] <DeeTahPanLtah> don_jr: who isn't?
[05:36] <nick564579> #mio.chan
[05:36] <bengoodger> don_jr, OEM is automated installation
[05:36] <maihem> UbuntuUser: sudo gedit /etc/fstab, then give your password, it will be writable until you close that gedit session

[05:37] <bengoodger> someone please kick this arse
[05:37] <kaot> ezenu: yeah, that sounds then like you need to make sure you're allowing udp traffic to whatever the nmbd port is

[05:37] <jontec> I need to know how to do a safe graphics boot in the xubuntu alternate CD, (the boys over at xubuntu aren't responding)
[05:37] <don_jr> any advice on which would be easier or more helpfull to learn for a first time nix system user, python or zsh?
[05:37] <bengoodger> python
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  bash
[05:37] <An0n> don_jr, you're looking to program?
[05:37] <bengoodger> ...python is good.
[05:38] <bengoodger> though I don't know what zsh is.
[05:38] <W_McL> jman8888 check that you installed mp32ogg, and then open a terminal and type mp32ogg /Me/Music/
[05:38] <kaot> ezenu: poke at your firestarter settings.  is that box directly connected to the internet or sitting behind nat or something?
[05:38] <kaosx> kaot, ezenu: its my fault then...i didnt specify udp for port 137 when i told him to open it up
[05:38] <W_McL> jman8888 man mp32ogg gives more information
[05:38] <don_jr> I'd like to learn a bit more about customizing my nix system and how to get around the file system better....I don't know how to find a file I"ve saved on my own compute right now...lol
[05:38] <chamo> Dr_Willis, what kind of tool does that ? any sugestion ?
[05:38] <RichiH> bengoodger: a shell
[05:39] <kaosx> don_jr: how did you create this file?
[05:39] <bengoodger> RichiH
[05:39] <bengoodger> I see
[05:39] <DeeTahPanLtah> don_jr: sudo updatedb; locate <name of this file here>
[05:39] <bengoodger> would bash not be more useful?
[05:39] <kaot> ezenu: if you do that, do the whole range, 137-139, UDP
[05:39] <chamo> xclipboard ?
[05:39] <bengoodger> though I'd say python still
[05:39] <dannylapt> has anyone here had any experience installing vmware on ubuntu server?
[05:39] <ezenu> kaosx, kaot also, another thing -- back when I was having issues, if I got it to successfully mount via disabling firewall, then if I reenable it and try to remount it, it works
[05:39] <don_jr> kaosx not a literal file I've saved, just saying....example. I downloaded some things from univers using synaptic, it didn't show up in my applications list, so probably runs from shell and not gnome, I don't know the command to run the file, or h ow to find what the name of the file is I need to run....
[05:40] <ezenu> kaosx, kaot er, reenable the firewall, that is
[05:40] <robertj> dannylapt: its simple, but go to #vmware
[05:40] <pyth0n88> hi all
[05:40] <kaot> ezenu: yeh I'd guess that's because it's temporarily cached the hostname/ip mapping that was failing the first time you tried it
[05:40] <dannylapt> oh, alright. Thanks
[05:40] <kaosx> don_jr: whereis packagename

[05:40] <Paddy_EIRE> !keyboard
[05:40] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts (Gnome) or "input actions" in Kcontrol (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[05:40] <kaosx> don_jr: or which packagename at the command line
[05:40] <martinz> hi, I just set a key combination for music playback under system > preferences. Now when I press this key combination, rhythmbox starts, but I would like a different player to start. how / where to set this?
[05:40] <kaot> ezenu: bummer.  that's why I'm not a huge fan of firestarter.
[05:40] <geokok> can someone PM me please?
[05:41] <don_jr> kaosx it's sad that it's that simple....lol
[05:41] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone one here using UK Keyboard???
[05:41] <jman8888> Has anybody noticed that if you hover over a mp3 it will start playing.
[05:41] <geokok> cause I had some problems with PM earlier
[05:41] <kaosx> don_jr: so that worked with you?
[05:41] <An0n> you'd be better off looking for a howto for bash or a "learn linux".. instead of python or zsh
[05:41] <Dr_Willis> jman8888,  thats an option
[05:41] <don_jr> kaosx havn't tried it, hold on I will
 how to enable
[05:41] <AlexC> Hey
[05:42] <jman8888> W_McL, It worked. oog's Sound pretty good too. (As good as mp3)_
[05:42] <geokok> can someone PM me to check if PM works now?
[05:42] <W_McL> jman8888: it's the preview feature.

[05:42] <don_jr> kaosx whereis just showed me the name of it again then back to my prmpt
[05:42] <kaosx> don_jr: just wanna make sure you get that figured out, I know i felt like such an ass when I first found out about the which/whereis command because i was hunting everywhere for what i though i installed
[05:42] <kaosx> ok
[05:42] <geokok> is it possible for someone to PM me please!!!?>??????
[05:43] <kaosx> don_jr: what are you looking for?
[05:43] <ezenu> kaot, I found this from google: "With Firestarter, no distinction is made between UDP and TCP. When a particular port number is listed in the allowed list, both UDP and TCP traffic on that port number will be allowed in."
[05:43] <CorruptKode> Anyone know how to install Alsa on Ubuntu
[05:43] <W_McL> jman8888: to preview ogg files when hovering over with the mouse, install vorbis-tools
[05:43] <don_jr> kaosx I downloaded 3dchess to check it out
[05:43] <earth|afk> ^^
[05:43] <kaot> ezenu: boy, that isn't exactly fine-grained control.
[05:43] <kaosx> don_jr
[05:43] <kaot> ezenu: I'd read up on man iptables a bit and write my own script, if I was you.  That's how I do it.
[05:44] <ezenu> kaot, need to start with the basics before getting into the ugly stuff
[05:44] <kaosx> what directory does it say its in? /usr/bin/3dchess?
[05:44] <An0n> don_jr, "man" is your friend... there's a utility called "find" that'll help you find things.. or the utility "locate"
[05:44] <kaot> ezenu: yeah.  iptables reads a bit like Martian until you get used to it
[05:44] <Kragnerac> Does anybody know where a log file is to track what apt-get has updated?
[05:44] <don_jr> kaosx it didn't show me a directory or I could get to it
[05:44] <An0n> you can type "man find" or "man locate"
[05:44] <kaosx> ok
[05:44] <kaot> ezenu: once you get the syntax down though it's pretty simple.  the tough part is deciding exactly what to do with all those packets.
[05:45] <don_jr> kaosx after I tiype wehreis 3dchess it just put up "3dchess:" then back to my command line
[05:45] <earth|afk> what is better for a dual opteron 250 computer: x64 ubuntu or x86 ubuntu ???

[05:58] <h00t> tarbomb: hey i did that and I can actually open it in whatever i want ... but how do i change the association permanently
[05:58] <kaot> AlexC: do you have Xgl or AIGLX installed?  and compiz?  and are they working?  Cuz you need all that first.
[05:59] <appye> I know I saw something about using the hibernation script(s?) to make it so GAIM disconnects and reconnects on hibernation and resume ... can someone point me to the right place?
[05:59] <AlexC> kaot, Yep I have XGL and Compiz running fine
[05:59] <AlexC> well, Compiz has gone pretty buggy - it was fine beforeteh updates lol
[05:59] <blackwire83> why is there no --quiet option to dpkg?
[05:59] <kaot> AlexC: that's what I'm finding out... :P  It's more luck than anything if I can get compiz to start.  Anyway, sudo apt-get install cgwd.
[06:00] <AlexC> kaot, yeh I have cgwd installed
[06:00] <kaot> AlexC: did you get cgwd-themes as well?
[06:00] <AlexC> kaot, but .... when I select a theme it does nothing
[06:00] <h00t> tarbomb: hey i did that and I can actually open it in whatever i want ... but how do i change the association permanently
[06:00] <habeeb> How do I add the "System Tools" menu, in the menu?
[06:00] <AlexC> kaot, yes
[06:00] <kaot> AlexC: ah yes.  Try doing "cgwd --replace &" in terminal.  I had the same problem, that fixed it for me.
[06:00] <ezenu> kaot, heh -- I now got this bug: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/44874
[06:01] <AlexC> kaot, ok hold on
[06:01] <AlexC> kaot, woah now I have zero window border lol
[06:02] <AlexC> kaot, i'll restart X
[06:02] <kaot> AlexC: bask in the buggy goodness.  :\
[06:02] <grigora> does anyone know which package provides the helix-dbus-server? thanks
[06:02] <spinz8r> habeeb: Use alacarte  to select apps u want to list.
[06:02] <kaot> ezenu: that looks pretty rough
[06:02] <habeeb> woah spinz8r thanks!
[06:03] <W_McL> jman8888: ogg and mp3 have differend "steps" of samplerates, so it converts to the samplerate that's next to that of the original file.
[06:03] <ffarzad> quit
[06:03] <ffarzad> exit
[06:03] <spinz8r> habeeb: no problem dude
[06:03] <DeeTahPanLtah> i've got a problem with amarok,it doesn't play music,it seems it's fast-forwarding it. anyone had similar problem?
[06:03] <W_McL> jman8888: but it cannot increase the quality, even if the converted file has a higher sample rate
[06:04] <kaosx> DeeTahPanLtah, what type of audio file?
[06:04] <jman8888> W_McL, Ok. I was i little scared.
[06:04] <AlexC> kaot, Hum, still no borders
[06:04] <danielmadsen> I still can get it
[06:04] <AlexC> kaot, I tried gnome-window-decorator --replace & but it didn't go back to metacity
[06:04] <DeeTahPanLtah> kaosx: mp3,but wouldn't it output a no codec error?
[06:04] <kaosx> possibly
[06:04] <W_McL> jman8888: in general the quality decreases a little bit whenever you convert from a lossy compression format to another
[06:04] <DeeTahPanLtah> what should i add?
[06:04] <kaosx> you have the w32 codecs and such installed?
[06:05] <kaot> AlexC: metacity --replace &, but whenever I do that in Xgl it chews HUGE memory after a few minutes
[06:05] <Dabian> Darren Hayes, I Like The Way ...
[06:05] <abo> I notice that firefox crash too often ... just disappear without any prior notice... anyone with same thing happening?
[06:05] <kaot> AlexC: it'll at least get you some window decorations though
[06:05] <AlexC> kaot, damm, so I wont be able to get a normal XGL/Compiz running again?
[06:05] <DeeTahPanLtah> kaosx: nope
[06:05] <anthony> can someone direct me to a tutorial about setting up a local sever, to test php applications, on ubuntu please?
[06:05] <kaosx> DeeTahPanLtah, i had that issue last night on my first install of amarok, i reinstalled from the restrcited formats guide and then it worked after a reboot

[06:06] <kaot> AlexC: You might be able to.  that cgwd --replace is what they suggest on compiz.net forums for when cgwd doesn't change your themes.
[06:06] <AlexC> kaot, Hum, how do I get compiz back?
[06:06] <kaot> AlexC: a la http://www.compiz.net/topic-2751-cannot-switch-themes
[06:06] <grigora> does anyone know where to get helix-dbus-server?
[06:06] <spinz8r> Hi, installed opera 9.01 ok but cant launch it. anyone has similar symptoms? tk
[06:06] <kaot> AlexC: good question.  I had it working, then crashed it by accidentally hitting shift-something, and it doesn't start for me again.
[06:07] <IronEag1e> hey, i found the answer to the Lexmark Z611 problem...    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=49714
[06:07] <AlexC> kaot, eek
[06:08] <kaot> AlexC: eek indeed. So I've been in gnome for about the last hour.
[06:08] <AlexC> kaot, so you havn't managed to get XGL/Compiz back too?
[06:08] <Paddy_EIRE> can someone please help me with this http://pastebin.com/776504
[06:08] <kaot> AlexC: I'll mess with it again in a little while, this isn't hte first time it's magically stopped working.
[06:08] <kaosx> i dont think my thinkpad could run XGL if I wanted to even try to install it
[06:09] <AlexC> kaot, ahh I see
[06:09] <kaot> AlexC: according to a lot of posts on their forum, it appears that with certain setups, it almost seems random as to whether or not it will start
[06:09] <AlexC> kaot, damm .... .is there a way to uninstall CGWD and just go back to normal?
[06:09] <kaot> AlexC: some people can sit there and keep pounding their startcompiz and it'll work for no reason after the 10th or 12th time.
[06:09] <AlexC> kaot, werid indeed
[06:09] <kaot> AlexC: couldn't tell ya.  I haven't tried uninstalling it since I actually got it to work.
[06:10] <jacques>  hello guys
[06:10] <Paddy_EIRE> aint XGL still in alpha??
[06:10] <jacques> how u all doing
[06:10] <AlexC> kaot, lucky =)
[06:10] <Paddy_EIRE> it would be buggy
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  i would use the term PRE-alpha. :P
[06:10] <kaot> AlexC: that's actually the case for me too.  I start it, no window decorations.  So I run startcompiz a few times, if it doesn't start within the first 5 times, then it won't.
[06:10] <Paddy_EIRE> yes
[06:10] <kaot> In my experience.
[06:10] <kaot> Sure FEELS pre-alpha.

[06:13] <AlexC> =)
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  each linux user, can be added to the samba users list and thus share their Home dir. wth 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME'
[06:14] <er4z0r> danielmadsen: did you try installing swat?
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  you may also want to edit the smb.conf file to enable writeble home shares.
[06:14] <covOPprometheus> My WLAN card apparantly works, but I can't connecto to the internet, can anyone help me?
[06:14] <jacques>  I need to know if the new version of ubuntu has a option where you can specifiy the root password
[06:14] <AlexC> cya
[06:14] <danielmadsen> do you type sudo
[06:14] <jacques> what do you mean
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,   the proper command uses sudo. as i show it.

[06:15] <joecoder> Hello. How can I make my cdrom auto mount whenever a cd is inserted?
[06:15] <joecoder> /dev/cdrom   /media/cdrom  auto  ro,user,auto,exec  0   0
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  normally you dont NEED a fstab entry. and the gnome  stuff will handle it.
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  by using a fstab entry - it is disabling the automonting features
[06:16] <joecoder> kubuntu.  I came here because no one was responding in #kubuntu
[06:16] <joecoder> well, I'll clear it out and see what it does.  Perhaps KDE will behave similarly?
[06:16] <danielmadsen> oki done the sudo thing what more should I do
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  that would be my guess
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  depends on what you are doing  :)
[06:16] <joecoder> Will I need to restart?
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  your other machnes shoul dbe able to see the users home shares now.
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> No need to reboot.
[06:17] <danielmadsen> I want my windows computer to have access you my linux harddrive
[06:17] <rambo3> !info splashy
[06:17] <ubotu> Package splashy does not exist in dapper
[06:17] <digitalhav0c> i'snt there gui for samba?
[06:17] <don_jr> I've installed Ubuntu and want to try out the KDE GUI, how do I go about doing that?
[06:17] <jacques> I want to install divx but need to be logged on as root? so what do I do
[06:17] <covOPprometheus> My WLAN card apparently works, but I can't connect to the internet, can anyone help me?
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> if editing the  /etc/samba/smb.conf you DO need to restart the samba services
[06:17] <digitalhav0c> sambaconf or something like that
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> digitalhav0c,  several, swat is one, webmin is another.
[06:18] <danielmadsen> what do I have to edit?
[06:18] <joecoder> Commented out the cdrom line in fstab, cd spins up upon insertion but not mounting
[06:18] <dalila> i read the ipod howto but i dont see how to import music to my ipod?
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,   /etc/samba/smb.conf has a great many settings.
[06:18] <danielmadsen> just type it at the promt?
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  chedk the places thing in kde. see if its shown up there.. and click on it.
[06:19] <Kennie> hi I wanna use mkinitrd but it says command not exist.. but I cant find the package with apt-get.. does anyone know wich one includes it?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  befor editing the conmfig file - i think ya may want to learn some Linux FUNdamentals. like how to use an editor. :)
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> danielmadsen,  plus  what are you wanting to change. :)
[06:19] <jacques> Dr_Willis -- I want to install divx but need to be logged on as root? so what do I do
[06:19] <danielmadsen> well I just install linux today
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> jacques,  use 'sudo' to do youyr root-thangs
[06:19] <danielmadsen> do i need to change anything?
[06:20] <jacques> ok how please
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> !sudo
[06:20] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:20] <joecoder> DR_Willis Hm. I had the cdrom icon appear on my desktop and clicking that took me to the cdrom moutned at /media/hdb
[06:20] <dalila> !smb > danielmadsen
[06:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:20] <AlexC> haha kaot I just tried it again and I had CGWD working for about 10 seconds then it randomly turned off
[06:20] <Alchamy> jacques, if the command you need to run is "command" just type in "sudo command" then it will prompt for your root password
[06:20] <dalila> !samba > danielmadsen
[06:20] <joecoder> DR_Willis (I had previously benn browsing /media/cdrom)
[06:20] <digitalhav0c> thanks Dr_willis
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  cdrom is a link to the actual device :)
[06:20] <jacques> thank you Dr_Willis
[06:21] <danielmadsen> thanks
[06:21] <warpzone> morning! does anybody know a good link to a home networking howto? I've check the wiki and havent found anything
[06:21] <don_jr> Is there one package I can get that will install the KDE for me?
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> all 'beginners' please bookmark and check out --->  http://www.tldp.org/guides.html
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> :)
 jacques, if the command you need to run is "command" just type in "sudo command" then it will prompt for your root password
[06:21] <dmsantam> don_jr, kubuntu
[06:21] <Elephantium> Actually, in my experience, it prompts you for your password
[06:21] <Gr3ml1n> hi
[06:22] <Gr3ml1n> i'm looking for some free cd collection software
[06:22] <Elephantium> you just have to be in the sudoers file
[06:22] <don_jr> dmsantam I already have Ubuntu installed, will I have to start all over if I get kubuntu??
[06:22] <Gr3ml1n> to encode my original audio cds
[06:22] <Elephantium> don_jr, no
[06:22] <Gr3ml1n> get covers
[06:22] <Flaco28Oeste> Hi, I need install the UBUNTU Server edition in a machine the cant boot fron CD, can boot from diskette ?
[06:22] <Gr3ml1n> and titles
[06:22] <Gr3ml1n> etc
[06:22] <Elephantium> just install the kubuntu-desktop package
[06:22] <dmsantam> don_jr, no :)
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> Gr3ml1n,  i tend to use 'grip' for most of my needs.
[06:22] <don_jr> elephantium so apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ?
[06:22] <joecoder> DR_Willis Is there any way to make the cdrom auto mount when inserted, instead of having to go to the desktop and click the icon?
[06:22] <kaot> warpzone: what are you trying to do?
[06:23] <joecoder> DR_Willis Also, after using that icon, the eject button on the cdrom fails.  but eject cdrom on the console works.
[06:23] <killkoy> don_jr just type sudo aptitude intsall kubuntu-desktop
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  if there is. (i though that was the default) thats the EXACT kind of silly thing that i always disable.
[06:23] <MrParanoia> someone looking for me?
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  the cd must be UNMOUNTED befor the button will work.
[06:23] <kaot> MrParanoia: *everyone* was looking for you.
[06:23] <warpzone> kaot: just trying to network my ubuntu desktop and a windows laptop and share folders
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> joecoder,  i normally mount the things manually. the automounting stuff just causes too many hassles.
[06:23] <dmsantam> don_jr, yep
[06:24] <kaot> !samba
[06:24] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:24] <dmsantam> don_jr, kubuntu-desktop is what you want :)
[06:24] <joecoder> DR_Willis Just a time saver I think.  I never put a cdrom in unless I want it mounted, and I never eject unless I want it unmounted first.
[06:24] <don_jr> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[06:24] <don_jr> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[06:24] <dmsantam> don_jr, don't forget sudo
[06:24] <kaot> warpzone: check out those samba links
[06:24] <dmsantam> don_jr, or maybe synaptic is open?
[06:24] <Gr3ml1n> Dr_Willis: does it get titles and covers?
[06:24] <warpzone> kaot: I'll check it out, thanks man
[06:24] <don_jr> dmsantam yes it is....dugh
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> Gr3ml1n,  no clue. i never want the covers..  :P
[06:25] <raghu206> how to configure hardware acceleration
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> Gr3ml1n,  check out freshmeat.net for others.
[06:25] <Gr3ml1n> i want to put my huge cd collection on hard disk
[06:25] <Gr3ml1n> to put it on a ftp for friends
[06:25] <Gr3ml1n> and for me to find music faster
[06:25] <Gr3ml1n> i got 800+ cds
[06:25] <popupman> does anyone know how to get opengl working?
[06:25] <don_jr> dmsantam after it is installed, how do I change to it?
[06:25] <Flaco28Oeste> Sorry, my connection down, I repeat, I need install the UBUNTU server edition from a machine that cant boot fron the CD, exist the option to boot fron diskette ?
[06:26] <joecoder> popupman video drivers installed?
[06:26] <MrParanoia> kaot> my tab for this channel was indicating someone was addressing me but that person's comments must have scrolled off
[06:26] <joecoder> popupman ATI or Nvidia ?
[06:26] <MrParanoia> i guess i should turn on logging
[06:26] <popupman> joecoder yea. i installed the ati drivers and it improved my graphics and everything but unlike last time opengl didnt start working
[06:26] <kaot> MrParanoia: I thought you were being clever about your nick so I was being clever back.  ;)
[06:26] <raghu206> Dr_Willis, how to configure hardware acceleration
[06:26] <popupman> joecoder and direct rendering is off and it says its not using ati when i check
[06:27] <MrParanoia> kaot> i don't know about my nick being clever but that's the way i sometimes feel.....
[06:27] <joecoder> popupman I don't know a lot, but have you played around in /etc/X11/xorg.conf any?
[06:27] <killkoy> don_jr just change the session when logging on
[06:27] <kmasta> why does it say WINE is not supported with my system? I'm running Dapper Drake amd-64
[06:27] <dmsantam> don_jr, just reboot.
[06:27] <dmsantam> don_jr, it should go to kdm by default
[06:27] <don_jr> change the session?? lol
[06:27] <kaot> MrParanoia: I think anyone who doesn't suffer bouts of paranoia just isn't paying attention.
[06:27] <popupman> joecoder, no. show i?
[06:27] <don_jr> dmsantam okay we'll see how it goes
[06:27] <dmsantam> don_jr, if it doesn't, then you need to change the session
[06:27] <popupman> joecoder, *should
[06:27] <kaot> but that's justbecause I'm paranoid.
[06:28] <don_jr> how do I change a session? sorry this is my first nix system and I just got it installed yesterday
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> raghu206,  follow the !ati or !nvidia guide and install the correct drivers for your video card.
[06:28] <covOPprometheus> My WLAN card apparently works, but I can't connect to the internet, can anyone help me? please PM me
[06:28] <joecoder> popupman If you break something, are you comfortable enough with the command line to restore a backup and boot back into your window manager?
[06:28] <dmsantam> don_jr, when you have graphical login, there is an "options" menu or something
[06:28] <raghu206> !intel
[06:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about intel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:28] <kmasta> !wine
[06:28] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:28] <popupman> joecoder, when i do a glxinfo it says its using the ati drivers and such, but the game says its not. and nope as im not comfortable with linux yet
[06:28] <killkoy> when logging on there will be a button that says session, just click it and select kde
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> raghu206,  if you got an Intel card - i would say check the ubuntu wiki/forums page.
[06:29] <joecoder> popupman type glxgears and see if the gears spin fast or slow
[06:29] <zubuntu> is there anybody who can tell me a way to reach my disks from live cd? i cant mount them for live boot......
[06:29] <don_jr> dmsantam okay once it's done I'll restart and we'll see how it works out
[06:29] <popupman> joecoder, really really slow...
[06:29] <bilss_> hi
[06:29] <chiklit> Does anyone have any suggestions as to whether to get the 32-bit or the 64-bit version? I have an AMD Athlon X2 3800+ processor but I've heard there can be come driver compatability issues with the 64-bit version.
[06:29] <joecoder> popupman looks like you don't have the dirvers working.  Did you get the fglrx driver (or something like that) ?
[06:29] <bilss_> how to remane a file is it the mv  comamd?
[06:29] <Kragnerac> Hello, Does anybody know where a log file is on my system to track what apt-get has updated?
[06:29] <kaot> bilss_: yes
[06:30] <zubuntu> is there anybody who can tell me a way to reach my disks from live cd? i cant mount them for live boot......
[06:30] <popupman> joecoder, i got the only linux x86 driver i could find on the ati website. it happens to be the same one on my last install of ubuntu
[06:30] <joecoder> popupman I think the generic ATI driver will still say ATI something on glxinfo
[06:30] <bilss_> kaot: so if the file icalled bliss and i want it to be bliss1 then?
[06:30] <kaot> bilss_: mv bliss bliss1
[06:31] <popupman> joecoder, glxinfo says its using the mesa thingy. and then goes on to give info about the ati drivers...
[06:31] <don_jr> so do most of you use ubuntu/linux in the shell mode mostof the time? or do you use the GUI?
[06:31] <bilss_> kaot: ok thanks ,
[06:31] <joecoder> popupman mesa will emulate opengl in software.  That's why things are running so slowly.
[06:31] <vapermonkey00> hey guys does  anyone have ut2004
[06:32] <popupman> joecoder, but i dont think i installed it right, as you said, since it says opengl is using mesa not ati.. how to fix this?
[06:32] <shaantanu> can someone help me
[06:32] <shaantanu> My root filesystem just wont mind
[06:32] <shaantanu> wond load
[06:32] <shaantanu> at startup
[06:32] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:33] <shaantanu> it says waiting for root filesystem after a while
[06:33] <joecoder> popupman  I'm not sure exactly.  I've had poor luck with ATI's dirvers in the past and had to tinker with xorg.conf manually.  I'll send you mine (for a Radeon x600 mobile), but I don't know how to help beyond that.
[06:33] <dmsantam> don_jr, good luck :)
[06:33] <shaantanu> anyone .. help
[06:33] <popupman> joecoder, where is the xorg.conf file located? ill go play with it myself as im running a completley different video card seriesthan you.
[06:34] <joecoder> popupman Here's the section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf that has to do with my screen and video driver:  http://rafb.net/paste/results/vPN77r62.html
[06:34] <popupman> joecoder, ok. ill take a look
[06:34] <joecoder> popupman one of the important parts is the Device Driver "fglrx"
[06:34] <dmsantam> xgl
[06:35] <dmsantam> !xgl
[06:35] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[06:35] <shaantanu> can someone help me here
[06:35] <grigora> does anyone know how pkg_config works, banshee is trying to use it to find mono, and even though mono is installed, pkg_config returns nothing
[06:35] <popupman> joecoder, set the device driver to fglrx?
[06:35] <joecoder> popupman You might also try asking other sin the channel that are more knowledgeable than me.  Also, make a backup of xorg.conf before modifying it.  If you're stuck on the command line and can't boot, then type sudo cp path/to/your/backup.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:36] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:36] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:36] <shaantanu> Am i even in this channel .. can u read me ??
[06:36] <joecoder> popupman *stuck on the command line and can't load x, I meant to say.  You might also add the two options below Driver "Fglrx".  Also make sure that the Identifier strings match up with other places in Xorg.conf that use them.
[06:36] <SuSEMan> i need some help with vmware
[06:36] <popupman> joecoder, ok. thanks. ill go check the config first though. so far mine seems to be identical to yours
[06:37] <dv_> hi
[06:37] <vapermonkey00> yes??
[06:37] <bluefox83> shaantanu, nope, you're a figment of our imaginations
[06:37] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:37] <shaantanu> :D
[06:37] <popupman> joecoder, it seems that my driver is set to vesa though..
[06:37] <shaantanu> bluefox : I just asked cause i was gettin no response
[06:37] <shaantanu> can u help me ?
[06:37] <nox-Hand> Hey
[06:37] <popupman> joecoder, so you recommend making a backup and changing that to flgrx?
[06:37] <vapermonkey00> hey guys does  anyone have ut2004
[06:37] <SuSEMan> im trying to install vmware tools on ubuntu 6.06 and i get the following error: Unable to copy the source file ./installer/services.sh to the destination file /etc/init.d/vmware-tools.
[06:37] <dv_> problem: after making a dist-upgrade, I cannot print anymore. no matter what I print, there comes out something like "@PJL JOB NAME="Ghost" "
[06:37] <rambo3> !ask > shaantanu
[06:38] <joecoder> popupman I think vesa is a software only driver.
[06:38] <shaantanu> I am stuck up while loading ubuntu
[06:38] <Mixx> SuSEMan are you doing it with sudo?
[06:38] <SuSEMan> Mixx: ya
[06:38] <shaantanu> it says mounting root filesystem
[06:38] <popupman> joecoder, ok. ill change it to fglrx and see if it helps. btw, am i going to need to restart?
[06:38] <shaantanu> and then just hangs
[06:38] <Mixx> SuSEMan do both locations exist
[06:38] <shaantanu> saying waiting for root filesystem
[06:38] <SuSEMan> Mixx: hold on lemme check
[06:39] <nox-Hand> Any good tutorials on making Ubuntu quicker?
[06:39] <shaantanu> then it just hangs
[06:39] <joecoder> popupman yes.  Or you can just restart X.  But before you do, does your /etc/modprobe.conf have fglrx in it?
[06:39] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:39] <popupman> joecoder ill check
[06:39] <joecoder> popupman You can probably goolge around and find some guides for what your'e doing that are more thorough and accurate than what I'm telling you.  That's how I've always managed in the past.
[06:39] <SuSEMan> Mixx: /etc/init.d/vmware-tools does not exist
[06:40] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:40] <SuSEMan> Mixx: just /etc/init.d/
[06:40] <Mixx> SuSEMan i would figure the install would create it, but more importantly is the source file there?
[06:40] <vapermonkey00> ok then where can i got to fix it ut2004
[06:40] <SuSEMan> ya
[06:40] <Mixx> like are you running the install from the right place cause it's using ./
[06:40] <popupman> joecoder, thats typically how i do things but i got frustrated with the crap i was finding. btw, i dont seem to have /ect/modprobe.cfg
[06:40] <shaantanu> ramb0 : any clue ?
[06:40] <SuSEMan> Mixx: no
[06:40] <shaantanu> bluefox : any clue
[06:40] <SuSEMan> shud i cd to it
[06:40] <Mixx> SuSEMan what are you using to install it
[06:40] <bluefox83> shaantanu, no idea
[06:41] <joecoder> popupman I may have given you the wrong path.  I saw that in the modprobe manual.  Perhaps ubuntu uses a different directory
[06:41] <SuSEMan> the terminal
[06:41] <shaantanu> k
[06:41] <Mixx> SuSEMan isn't it available through synaptic ?
[06:41] <joecoder> popupman ok over here it's /etc/modules
[06:41] <SuSEMan> Mixx: i dont think so
[06:41] <Shin_Gouki> hello there i got a question!mp3 is not included ok, but there is the LAME OS alternative Codec, why isn't this one included?
[06:41] <SuSEMan> i checked
[06:41] <popupman> joecoder, how did you say to restart it without restarting the computer?

[06:42] <Hoxzer> is it safe to update xserver-xorg-core?
[06:42] <Mixx> SuSEMan you have enabled multiverse repository to dl copyrighted stuff?
[06:42] <joecoder> if you want to restart x, you can press ctrl+alt+backspace.  You'll be at a command prompt (hopefully) and then you can type startx
[06:42] <shaantanu> newtyoubuntu : go for VLC
[06:42] <martianul`> hy again
[06:42] <bluefox83> vapermonkey00, this server has a wine channel..you might wantto go give them a look
[06:42] <SuSEMan> Mixx: how do i do that?
[06:42] <martianul`> when my installer get to 89% it crashed :(
[06:42] <dmsantam> ut2004 is linux.
[06:42] <Mixx> SuSEMan ask in channel for best way or search forums, i don't know exactly which one to activate
[06:42] <dmsantam> ut2004 can run on linux. without wine. it's native.
[06:42] <hemant> How and where do I download wallpapers and which directory should they be in?
[06:42] <bluefox83> spiffy ^_^
[06:42] <NewtoUbuntu> Vlc will allow me to play encrypted dvds without extra downloads?
[06:42] <Ktron> Looking for help understanding why the installer failed-- log file = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21706
[06:43] <joecoder> popupman don't be surprised if there's an error in xorg.conf  If so, ust restore your backup and type startx
[06:43] <shaantanu> I guess so
[06:43] <shaantanu> just give it a try .. nothing to loose
[06:43] <NewtoUbuntu> hmm ok
[06:43] <Hoxzer> Guys?
[06:43] <shaantanu> depends on ur player as wll dude
[06:43] <joecoder> popupman  But first, does your etc/modules have fglrx ?
[06:43] <NewtoUbuntu> i might got for the windows media player?
[06:43] <shaantanu> I mean hardware
[06:43] <Hoxzer> what about xserver-xorg-main package? is it still broken?
[06:43] <popupman> joecoder, no. its not on the list
[06:43] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:43] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:43] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:43] <vapermonkey00> i cant get ut2004 to work need to fix ini:Engine.Engine.GameEngine
[06:43] <shaantanu> ofcourse not
[06:43] <NewtoUbuntu> because i already got wine
[06:43] <Dr_Willis> hemant,  i make a wallpapers direcory and put them in there. :P
[06:44] <shaantanu> vaermonkey .. plz dont behave like one
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> vapermonkey00,  why dont you go GOOGLE that error?
[06:44] <popupman> joecoder rawr. i didnt even know anything about linux the last time and managed to get it to work
[06:44] <hemant> thanks Willis
[06:44] <Ktron> Looking for help understanding why the installer failed-- log file = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21706 -- anyone?
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> hemant,  if using kde there is a .kde/somthing/wallpapers dir also (i link to my /home/username/wallpapers) Gnome may have a similer thing
[06:44] <shaantanu> newtoubutnu : five VLC a try and remember .. playing encrypted DVD also depends on ur hardware
[06:44] <joecoder> popupman I'm nearing the point where I worry if the advice I give is accurate.  Like I said, I don't know that much.
[06:45] <nox-Hand> Dr_Willis: Thanks for the help with GRIP earlier. It rocks :)
[06:45] <hemant> got it friend..........thanks again
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> nox-Hand,  its also very flexable.
[06:45] <vapermonkey00> i did and it all it sed was about the problem and thay changed the config file but i cant find that file thay didnt say the name
[06:45] <nox-Hand> Now I want to optimise my system, as its quite slow (( compiz has gotten slower and slower :( ))
[06:45] <popupman> joecoder, ok. ill just go check the ubuntu wiki page and see what i can turn up. thanks for the help though. now i an idea as to what to search at least
[06:45] <joecoder> popupman no problem, I'm signing off now.
[06:46] <Ktron> Looking for help understanding why the installer failed-- log file = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21706 -- I'm at a point where I believe it's either a bug in the software or hardware failure
[06:46] <NewtoUbuntu> Does windows media player play dvds?
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> nox-Hand,  get rid of useless eye candy = best optmization. :P
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> NewtoUbuntu,  it can.
[06:47] <NewtoUbuntu> does it upon download
[06:47] <NewtoUbuntu> ? withotu any extra downloads required dr_willis?
[06:47] <foo25> You need codec's I believe
[06:47] <nox-Hand> Dr_Willis: There was a time, when Compiz made GNOME quicker - not anymore. Getting bloated :(
[06:47] <natan-> if there is a program we think should be in ubuntu but its not in the repositories is there someone you can inform to try to get it added?
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> NewtoUbuntu,  i belive it depends on   what codecs it has installed.
[06:47] <NewtoUbuntu> Dmanit..
[06:47] <foo25> Easy to get codec's
[06:47] <NewtoUbuntu> im looking for a dvd player thta plays encrypted dvds withotu codecs
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> I just copy the dvd's to hd and play them with vlc. :P
[06:47] <bbrazil> NewtoUbuntu: try #ubuntu-motu
[06:48] <bbrazil> natan-: ^
[06:48] <nox-Hand> Dr_Willis: I am tryng to install compiz-vanilla instead, but it simply says that it is being refered to by another package, but thats not installable
[06:48] <bbrazil> natan-: sorry, wrong person
[06:48] <NewtoUbuntu> ok
[06:48] <rambo3> you can play them with mqp just that you need to change .vbo to .mpg
[06:48] <bluefox83> bbrazil, ya know xchat will let you turn that off in your preferences right?
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:48] <vapermonkey00> dr_willis: where do i find ~/Library/Application Support/Unreal Tournament 2004
[06:48] <NewtoUbuntu> rambo3 is amqp a dvd player?
[06:48] <bbrazil> bluefox83: I use irssi, and I want tab completion
[06:49] <vapermonkey00> dr_willis where do i find ~/Library/Application Support/Unreal Tournament 2004
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> vapermonkey00,  i would guess ya should use the 'locate command' and find that file/dir
[06:49] <Phoul> is the xorg issue finished yet?
[06:49] <Ktron> Looking for help understanding why the installer failed-- log file = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21706 -- I'm at a point where I believe it's either a bug in the software or hardware failure
[06:49] <rambo3> NewtoUbuntu, mplayer can do it all
[06:49] <bluefox83> O.o
[06:50] <longwave> Phoul: yes, it is safe to upgrade xorg now
[06:50] <NewtoUbuntu> without codecs?
[06:50] <rambo3> how can you pplay something without codec
[06:50] <gizmatix> investigating
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> vlc i thought had the codec built in
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> technicially the dvd playback - is not a 'codec' its  installing that decess thing. :P as opposed to the win32codec files
[06:51] <dv_> hello? anyone familiar with "@PJL JOB NAME" printing output?
[06:51] <dv_> what does this mean?
[06:51] <feross> Ktron: first time trying to install?
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> dv_,  means the printer driver may be confused. (or so ive seen)
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> dv_,  it does it every time?
[06:51] <dv_> yes
[06:51] <longwave> dv_: PJL is HP's printing format i believe, do you have the right printer driver selected?
[06:51] <dv_> no matter what I print
[06:51] <Ktron> feross: no, not at all, I've been in and out of this channel for a few days, but I have never had ubuntu working
[06:52] <cbx33> anyone familiar with pessulus here?
[06:52] <Ktron> feross: but I'm definitely not a stranger to linux
[06:52] <dv_> its a brother printer
[06:52] <marshall_> hey guys
[06:52] <dv_> using printer hl1250
[06:52] <dv_> this did not change at all. yet after the dist-upgrade suddenly it doesnt work
[06:52] <marshall_> how come when i try to open banshee, it says opening banshee but then nothing happens?
[06:52] <feross> Ktron: that's odd.. what hardware are you trying to install on?
[06:53] <bluefox83> W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://security.ubuntu.com dapper-security/multiverse Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper-security_multiverse_binary-i386_Packages)      i get a lot of that..whats it mean?
[06:53] <longwave> bluefox83: it means you have a duplicate entry in /etc/apt/sources.list for dapper-security/multiverse
[06:53] <feross> marshall_: try running it from a console window and see what the output is on the console when it crashes.. that could help
[06:53] <Ktron> feross: 1 sata drive, amd 64 processor... I've tried both the amd 64 cd and the x86 cd, and I've tried switching hard drives and never got a working set
[06:54] <bluefox83> longwave, i've got a lot of those..do i need to edit my sources.list or something?
[06:54] <marshall_> feross:  ok
[06:54] <nkayhan> This is probably increadably bone headed, but I can't get my usb pen drive to work
[06:54] <longwave> bluefox83: yes, edit sources.list and comment out one of the lines that mentions security and multiverse, then apt-get update and the warnings should go away
[06:54] <cypher1> i am having problems with DVD menus using totem, vlc etc
[06:55] <cypher1> do i have to install anything more ?
[06:55] <dv_> the printer is accessed through a network. it is connected to a machine with cups installed. the cups test page is successfully printed, I can also print using Windows.
[06:55] <marshall_> feross:  if i pastebin my results do you think you can help me?
[06:55] <feross> marshall_: will try..
[06:55] <karakorum> hi to everyone!
[06:56] <nkayhan> Any ideas, I bet it's realy easy to solve
[06:57] <nkayhan> Do I need to mount the drive in some special way?
[06:58] <feross> Ktron: no errors ar anything funny when installing, partitions formatted without a problem? It looks like something is not right with the drive. Did you wipe it completely when you were trying to install are is this a dual-boot system?
[06:58] <NewtoUbuntu> how do i search for a program in the terminal? like search 3d racing games
[06:59] <Prohibited> yo I just moved to ubuntu and I gotta Q... java is apparently installed but I can't see applets, do I gotta go to java and download it or what :|
[06:59] <POVaddct> NewtoUbuntu: apt-cache search your_search_pattern
[06:59] <longwave> !java
[06:59] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[06:59] <longwave> Prohibited: did you install sun-java5-jre from multiverse?
[07:00] <karakorum> has anyone had success using the internet with speedtouch 330 pppoatm?
[07:00] <Prohibited> I'll check that site out, and longwave, it was already on here... (I did java in terminal.. ?)
[07:00] <NewtoUbuntu> is it sudo apt-get program to install something?
[07:01] <feross> NewtoUbuntu: you can also use locate  or find ...  locate builds a db of your drive and searches the db.. find does a search on the spot, very HD intensive. try  'locate 3d' or  'find / -name 3d -print'
[07:01] <EVRAMP> hello which IM client would you recommend me for gnome? i don't like gaim. now i am trying licq, but it seems to be designed for a few contacts in the list, but i have almost 150 contact. thx
[07:01] <bluefox83> NewtoUbuntu, yup, or you can use the synaptic package manager which is all point and click happy
[07:01] <dv_> ok, I give up. I will use Windows for printing. :/
[07:01] <Ribs> 'updatedb' actually builds the database
[07:01] <Prohibited> NewtoUbuntu, apt-get install PROGRAM
[07:01] <NewtoUbuntu> kk
[07:02] <bluefox83> NewtoUbuntu, yeah..uhm sudo apt-get install package
[07:02] <martinz> any recommendations for a program, that plays _only_cds?
[07:02] <bluefox83> gcd?
[07:02] <martinz> hide to tray works, but unfortunately the autoplayback doesn't
[07:03] <martinz> so gnome-cd is not an option anymore :(
[07:03] <martinz> any others?
[07:03] <marshall_> feross:  http://pastebin.com/776564
[07:04] <martinz> console would be fine too
[07:04] <politik> anyone here have NetworkManager working with the pptp plugin?
[07:04] <TheInternet> Hi, I was wondering, what do I need to do to get my Gateway 7210GX laptop to boot from the Ubuntu setup disc?
[07:04] <feross> marshall_: ok taking a look
[07:04] <marshall_> feross:  thanks
[07:04] <politik> I click on "Configure VPN" in Network Manager, but nothing happens.. no configuration window, nothing
[07:04] <jpjacobs> martinz, cdtool?
[07:04] <martinz> I installed that but couldn't find it :/
[07:04] <bluefox83> TheInternet, set the bios to boot from cd first
[07:04] <feross> TheInternet: you probably need to setup the BIOS to boot from cd
[07:05] <TheInternet> I did that. Didn't work.
[07:05] <politik> anyone know where Network Manager logs to?
[07:05] <karakorum> please In eed help with connecting my speedtouch 330 usb modem
[07:05] <martinz> somebody gotta know a (preferrably small) audio program, that can playback cds at startup and hide to tray on startup? :(
[07:05] <TheInternet> The laptop reads the disc for a while and then goes to the hard drive.
[07:05] <kmasta> !wine
[07:05] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:05] <finalbeta> politik, start it from bash, that might tell you what goes wrong when you try to open it
[07:05] <don_jr> TheInternet did you check the bios for security features that may stop it from booting from the disk?
[07:05] <martinz> jpjacobs: I installed cdtool, but I did not know where to find / how to start it afterwards
[07:05] <jpjacobs> martinz, or workbone...
[07:06] <TheInternet> Oh. I didn't check that. Hold on..
[07:06] <jpjacobs> martinz, see output of dpkg -L cdtool, so i'd try cdplay...
[07:07] <TheInternet> No. Only security option there is is setting a password for the bios and for booting.
[07:07] <TheInternet> Of which I don't think I have a password for either set.
[07:08] <ro> hello people could some one help me to configure mp3 for amarok ? XMMS is playing mp3s but amarok doesent..
[07:08] <feross> marshall_: looks like banshee can't find or can't use the mono libraries. Either they are curropt or not installed. Are you on an x64 box?
[07:08] <Luke> I've rebooted and now my X wont start. Does anyone know of some general problem people have been having that could be killing me as well?
[07:09] <Ribs> Luke, run another update from the shell

[07:10] <feross> ro: any errors, does it look like it's playing but no sound comes out. Did you check the volume controls and turn up PCM?
[07:10] <Ribs> Luke, oh
[07:10] <Ribs> Luke, Pass then...
[07:10] <Luke> Ribs: no you were right
[07:10] <NewtoUbuntu> what plugins must install to get xine-ui to play dvds and how do i inmstall them
[07:10] <Luke> Ribs: its there now... im asking how you knew =D
[07:10] <shaantanu> shawn cud u help it just says witing for root filesystem and hangs
[07:10] <Ribs> Luke, I'm a genious
[07:10] <feross> marshall_: try removing and reinstalling, check to make sure the libraries get installed.
[07:10] <Ribs> Luke, plus I think that upgrade broke *everyone's* setup
[07:11] <TheInternet> I talkied to Gateway support, and they couldn't help me at all.
[07:11] <ro> feross:  the songs doesnt play they just are skipping one by one (1s)
[07:11] <feross> NewtoUbuntu: there's a wiki for that on the ubuntu site.
[07:11] <Luke> Ribs: haha wow thats. When was this upgrade? I dont restart much so when i do... sometimes things can creap up on me
[07:11] <fredl> mmmm, is it strange when I don't have lircd running but my remote control generates keypresses in a terminal window?!?!?!
[07:11] <Ribs> Luke, A few days ago
[07:11] <NewtoUbuntu> ... ill try it feross but i did that last night and it didnt work..
[07:11] <TheInternet> God damn, I just wanted to install a dual boot on my laptop, and the thing won't even boot.
[07:12] <Ribs> Luke, See the forums, there is a green box out on there detailing what happened
[07:12] <marshall_> Ribs:  yeah a few modules stopped working for me after that
[07:12] <Luke> Ribs: the weird thing is... I did an update right before the reboot like 10 min ago. No xorg update was there but when you told me to update again... it was there
[07:12] <shaantanu> my root filesystem wont load at startup .. someone plz help
[07:12] <Luke> Ribs: thats what i'm confused about
[07:12] <shawnr_> ro, are you sure that the files havn't moved? or that another program like firefox isn't locking the sound card?
[07:12] <Ribs> Luke, I'm just amazing like that
[07:12] <Luke> Ribs: haha ok well thank you!
[07:12] <fredl> does anybody here know anything about remote controls on Linux?!?!?!
[07:12] <fredl> this is freaking me out!!!
[07:13] <feross> NewtoUbuntu: hmm, there's also a "10 things to do" list review.. if the wiki still doesn't work I'll try to hunt it down for you
[07:13] <marshall_> Ribs:  Luke : i found that dpkg-recompiling the broken packages fixed them
[07:13] <don_jr> I have installed ubuntu to dual boot with my xp box, it runs through loading drivers and the kernel then goes to a black screen with a NON blinking cursor and just sits there...anything I can check to get past this?
[07:13] <ro> i`m sure becouse i`m listened to XMMS stoped the song and tried amarok it just swiches to other songs and doesent play (mp3) .wav he does
[07:13] <Ribs> marshall_, Why bother? An update takes a lot less time
[07:13] <shaantanu> ro : then u just need a plugin for mp3
[07:13] <Ribs> and, like, tiny amounts of bandwidth
[07:13] <ro> only for amarok?
[07:14] <shaantanu> yep
[07:14] <fredl> isn't lircd the only tool there is for remote controls or is it somehow hooked into the /dev/input stuff??
[07:14] <ro> oh i didn know that 10x gona look for it
[07:14] <shaantanu> k
[07:14] <shaantanu> every player requires plugins to play different formats
[07:14] <shaantanu> some r shipped wid built in plugins
[07:14] <charims>  ok I'm using kubuntu, sound isnt working :( i have no idea why, i have a slight hum from my speakers, and the alsamixer volume makes the hum gets louder and quieter, also kmix balance can make the hum switch speakers, i have a Nvidia CK8 Using snd-intel8x0 Please help me!! Also when i run killall -9 artsd, i can get a static sound for about a second when playing an mp3 using mpg123.
[07:14] <fredl> HELP! I don't like it when I can't get hardware to run but I like it even less when it works and I have not a clue why.
[07:15] <fredl> my remote control works through some magic that I don't comprehend!
[07:15] <fredl> does anybody know what /proc/bus/input/devices  is??
[07:15] <don_jr> I started ubuntu in safe mode and am now at a bash prompt, what can I look for to see why it's locking up when loading the gui?  could it be my invidia card?
[07:16] <tarbomb> My root filesystem wont mount .. any sol except a format ??
[07:16] <marshall_> Ribs:  the last update broke my computer. the madwifi module would no longer start with the kernel and my wireless card wasnt recognized. dpkg-recompiling linux-restricted-modules fixed it
[07:17] <feross> don_jr: that is definately a possibility from what you describe. Lookup some way of installing the drivers.
[07:17] <Ribs> how is that related to x.org breaking?
[07:17] <don_jr> feross okay, I'll dig around for it, thanx
[07:17] <farky> I get this message when I try to access my NTFS partitions from within ubuntu: error: device /dev/sda5 is not removable
[07:17] <farky> error: could not execute pmount
[07:17] <marshall_> Ribs:  i never said it was. its related to the last update breaking stuff
[07:17] <fredl> Can anybody please shed some light on my remote control issue?!?! I'm completely at a loss!
[07:18] <POVaddct> fredl: never used lircd
[07:18] <fredl> POVaddct, me EITHER! And the remote control works!
[07:18] <tarbomb> farky : U might try to umount and mount -a ur NTFS partition
[07:18] <fredl> POVaddct, and lircd isn't even running!
[07:18] <NewtoUbuntu> my terminal wont let me type my password in when it ask for it
[07:18] <Kameli> hi, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Serengeti_Usplash_for_Dapper i'm installing new bootsplash with that guide, but i don't understand what i must do in menu.lst, can someone help me? =(
[07:18] <farky> tarbomb: thanks I'll try that
[07:18] <tarbomb> k
[07:18] <tarbomb> welcome
[07:19] <fredl> POVaddct, do you know what /proc/bus/input/devices is?!?!
[07:19] <NewtoUbuntu> is there a way to perform this command manually nto for the terminal?
[07:19] <Ribs> NewtoUbuntu, How do you know this? The password will not show up as little "*"'s  like they do in Windows...
[07:19] <fredl> POVaddct, does X use that?
[07:19] <NewtoUbuntu> correct rebs
[07:19] <feross> fredl: X detects it as another input device, is this one of those little remotes that pops out of the side of laptops or wat?
[07:19] <tarbomb> newtoubuntu : arre the pass is getting typed
[07:19] <POVaddct> fredl: i don't think so
[07:19] <tarbomb> u just type the pass and press enter
[07:19] <POVaddct> fredl: X normally uses /dev/input/mice
[07:19] <tarbomb> it wont display * or anything
[07:19] <fredl> feross, no it's a full remote control, hang on
[07:20] <NewtoUbuntu> when i do it says sorry, try again
[07:20] <ro> i exedently removed my upper pannel is there a way how to get it back?
[07:20] <tarbomb> then u might have lost ur pass
[07:20] <NewtoUbuntu> but i know its the right password because i type it when i get on..
[07:20] <fredl> feross, from /proc/bus/input/devices:
[07:20] <fredl> I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0bc7 Product=0006 Version=0200
[07:20] <fredl> N: Name="X10 Wireless Technology Inc USB Receiver"
[07:20] <blabi1> can anyone here help me out with installing a torrent client?

[07:20] <farky> tarbomb: that didn't work
[07:20] <POVaddct> fredl: maybe that usb device acts as a standard HID class device
[07:21] <shray> how can i install flash?
[07:21] <tarbomb> were u able to umount faky ??
[07:21] <feross> fredl: I think that's the first time someone is freaked out that something works out of the box :) just be merry..
[07:21] <Soulfly> blabi1: graphical?  I use the btdownloadmanycurses from the "bittorrent" package. It downloads any file you put in the directory where it was started
[07:21] <POVaddct> fredl: then the keyboard events can be read from /dev/input/mice
[07:21] <farky> tarbomb: it wasn't even mounted(according to mtab)
[07:21] <NewtoUbuntu> what do u mean sytem admin preferences?
[07:21] <tarbomb> oh .. then u might as well mount it first
[07:21] <NewtoUbuntu> its either open system and go admin or prefereces.
[07:21] <fredl> POVaddct, but it's not a mouse, it's an infrared remote control!
[07:21] <blabi1> Soulfly, I used bitcommet in windows, so I was hoping for something similar
[07:21] <tarbomb> r u sure its mounted
[07:22] <tarbomb> is it there in /mnt
[07:22] <tarbomb> or ur fstab ??
[07:22] <tarbomb> newtoubuntu : pass
[07:22] <Soulfly> blabi1: I dont know that.. but I can also erecommend "Azareus" if you want a graphical client
[07:22] <farky> nothing in /mnt
[07:22] <POVaddct> fredl: do you have usbview installed?
[07:22] <blabi1> ok...i think i found it.......
[07:22] <feross> blabi1: installed Azerus last night .. haven't tried it yet but the windows version is ok.
[07:22] <tarbomb> then its not mounted in the first place
[07:22] <fredl> POVaddct, installing it now
[07:22] <tarbomb> try lookin in /media
[07:23] <blabi1> Feross and Soulfly I will try it..thanks
[07:23] <NewtoUbuntu> how do i reverse this command?
[07:23] <NewtoUbuntu> wget -c http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/pool/dapper/i386/non-free/w32codecs/w32codecs_20060611-1plf1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20060611-1plf1_i386.deb
[07:23] <POVaddct> fredl: okay. run it and look if the device class of the remote control is HID (human interface device)
[07:23] <feross> uTorrent is sweet on windows but didn't see it on synaptics
[07:23] <kkathman> is there a way from the cli, to reset all gnome settings to orignial defaults?
[07:23] <shray> how can i install flash?
[07:23] <dmsantam> feross, use azureus
[07:23] <blabi1> Feross, what about a downloading program like limewire?
[07:24] <mcphail> feross: i think you can install utorrent on wine
[07:24] <MenZa> feross: use ktorrent
[07:24] <farky> tarbomb: it's not in media either, but I just mounted it to /mnt/data and when I try to change to that dir I get Permission denied
[07:24] <Ktron> feross: I deleted all the existing partitions and made new ones
[07:24] <fredl> POVaddct, the remote IS in the listing, it says 'Device Class: 00 (>ifc)
[07:24] <longwave> NewtoUbuntu: "dpkg -r w32codecs" should remove the package that that command installs
[07:24] <fredl> POVaddct, is that the class you mean?
[07:24] <longwave> NewtoUbuntu: sorry, "sudo dpkg -r w32codecs"
[07:24] <feross> Ktron: ok, gonig to start from scratch
[07:24] <Ktron> feross: when I used the amd 64 bit version of the cd with this hard drive it failed trying to make one of the partitions
[07:24] <POVaddct> fredl: ifc is "defined at interface". look in the interface section.
[07:25] <NewtoUbuntu> its says its locked by another process longwave
[07:25] <IceTox> Hey guys.. Do you happend to know where I might find regular xchat in .deb files for ubuntu? :)
[07:25] <IceTox> this gnome-xchat in ubuntu really doesn't look any good :|
[07:26] <fredl> can I PM you POVaddct ?
[07:26] <Ktron> feross: whatever you think is best... right now I'm talking from gaim on the x86 livecd... If there's a 'wipe completely' command for hard drives so I can try to completely blank it, I'd try that
[07:26] <ISOLATEDViRuS> hey guys, im trying to share a folder to my windows network, but the network cant see it, and i also cant see any of the shared folders on my network... what do i do?
[07:26] <mcphail> NewtoUbuntu: close down synaptic, the updater etc
[07:26] <blabi1> anyone here use frostwire?
[07:26] <POVaddct> fredl: yes
[07:26] <Matt____> Hello!
[07:26] <DeMoNSeEd> IceTox, just use the xchat package
[07:26] <farky> IceTox: sudo apt-get -d xchat
[07:26] <DeMoNSeEd> not the gnome part
[07:26] <IceTox> oh, thanks both of you.. :)
[07:27] <fredl> POVaddct, can you make heads or tails out of that??
[07:27] <farky> tarbomb: it's not in media either, but I just mounted it to /mnt/data and when I try to change to that dir I get Permission denied
[07:27] <Matt____> Hi everyone
[07:27] <feross> Ktron: hmm, qparted should work or just fdisk ...
[07:28] <blabi1> Anyone here know anything about frostwire?  I set it up, but it won't open....I am not sure what to do.
[07:28] <POVaddct> fredl: can you read my answer in the dialog?
[07:28] <Matt____> Ok, conversation slow!
[07:28] <Matt____> Anyone reccomend a great ubuntu app?
[07:29] <feross> Ktron: with fdisk kill all the partitions and start the install, it will ask you to create new ones.
[07:29] <Ktron> feross: I'll look at fdisk again-- I have used fdisk to manually make the partitions but the installer doesn't look like its happy with them
[07:29] <Zatoichi> does anyone know where I can find a "report card" on hadware vendors' attitudes towards open source?
[07:29] <Ktron> feross: alright, trying that
[07:29] <Daiferas> Could somebody tell me how to share my music via the network here at college, as pretty much everyone else is doing through iTunes?
[07:29] <Matt____> http://www.moture.net - visit me, I'm off, bye! :)
[07:29] <jbroome> Daiferas: banshee will do that
[07:30] <blabi1> can anyone here help me with frostwire?
[07:30] <TheGame> ya what u need
[07:30] <Daiferas> okay, thanks! I'll try banshee, then.
[07:30] <blabi1> Thegame: it won't work for me.
[07:30] <TheGame> whats wrong
[07:30] <kaot> Zatoichi: try http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatvendors3-1-1.html
[07:30] <jbroome> i think you need banshee-daap also
[07:30] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, where did you get the frostwire
[07:30] <Daiferas> okay.
[07:30] <blabi1> Well, from the dapper page with commands on it.
[07:31] <blabi1> anyone know a better place?
[07:31] <Gorgapor> i have a question about RAID-5: if i'm running a raid-5 array, and a disk goes down, how do i find out that it's gone down so i can replace it?
[07:31] <riddlebox> I installed ndiswrapper in dapper and blacklisted bcm43xx but how do I tell ubuntu not to use eth1 and use wlan0?
[07:31] <DeMoNSeEd> try getting it here
[07:31] <DeMoNSeEd> http://www.frostwire.com/
[07:31] <blabi1> Thanks Demonseed
[07:31] <DeMoNSeEd> take out what  in now
[07:32] <DeMoNSeEd> try that
[07:32] <blabi1> How do I remove appz?
[07:32] <don_jr> Okay, I"m googling for geforce mx4000 ubuntu and not finding much help....is there a log file I can look at to see if it's my video card or not?
[07:32] <DeMoNSeEd> the easy way
[07:32] <Ktron> feross: do you want me to manually make the partitions again, or can I let the installer automate that?
[07:32] <DeMoNSeEd> use synaptic
[07:32] <rak> can anyone recommend a non-cl ftp client
[07:32] <feross> Gorgapor: hmm, good question. Maybe SNMP
[07:32] <Ktron> feross: I'll manually do it
[07:32] <DeMoNSeEd> gftp
[07:32] <feross> Ktron: nahh
[07:32] <jbroome> Gorgapor: check out mdtools
[07:32] <feross> Ktron: Let the installer do them
[07:32] <Ktron> just 'Erase entire disk' etc?
[07:33] <Ktron> feross: okay
[07:33] <Gorgapor> feross, k thx i'll research those
[07:33] <feross> Ktron: eah
[07:33] <DeMoNSeEd> rak, gftp
[07:33] <erUSUL> don_jr: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:33] <|inept|> is the ubuntu kernal win4lin optamised
[07:33] <rak> cool thanks demonseed, good prog?
[07:34] <Ktron> feross: I have had a problem with the installation hanging after doing this, but we'll see, this is a new combo of hd and disc
[07:34] <blabi1> DemonSeed: I installed that package you recomended, still when I open frostwire, nothing happens.  any idea's?
[07:34] <don_jr> erUSUL when I opened that win nano it said it was a new file, it's blank
[07:35] <DeMoNSeEd> hmm
[07:35] <don_jr> I just installed ubuntu, havn't even got it to run ight now.  it get's to the loading kernel and then screen goes blank and it just sits there
[07:35] <DeMoNSeEd> you took out the one that had been in there
[07:35] <don_jr> so I started it in 'safe mode' or whatever and I'm at a bash promps trying to figure out what to do
[07:35] <blabi1> Demon: no, I don't know how to remove it.
[07:35] <insanity_> hello
[07:36] <DeMoNSeEd> open synaptic
[07:36] <Ktron> feross: taking a long time at 0%, but it often does that
[07:36] <erUSUL> don_jr: 'less /var/log/Xorg' and hit the tab key twice for autocompletion
[07:36] <DeMoNSeEd> search for it
[07:36] <hamdan> hi
[07:36] <blabi1> Demon, I am sorry, how do I open synaptic?
[07:36] <DeMoNSeEd> oh
[07:36] <erUSUL> !synaptic
[07:36] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[07:36] <blabi1> I got it...
[07:36] <DeMoNSeEd> System>Admin
[07:36] <don_jr> erUSUL 'no such file or directory'
[07:36] <Zatoichi> kaot, I was looking for something more general.  For example I remember reading about ASUS not being to freindly towards linux
[07:36] <blabi1> ok......so remove it first then re-install?
[07:37] <hamdan> hamdan@hamdan-laptop:~$ make
[07:37] <DeMoNSeEd> yeah, i would
[07:37] <hamdan> bash: make: command not found
[07:37] <hamdan>  help me
[07:37] <kmasta> why don't some of my screen savers work?
[07:37] <don_jr> and the tab completion isn't working, it just beeps at me
[07:37] <erUSUL> don_jr: cd '/var/log/' and do an ls
[07:37] <erUSUL> !!
[07:37] <Ktron> feross: not looking good, looks like it has hung at 15% 'Detecting file systems...' (which I've had a problem with it doing often)... I can pastebin the log if you'd like
[07:37] <feross> Ktron: nahh,
[07:38] <hamdan> i have problem in terminal
[07:38] <DeMoNSeEd> rak, you should be happy with that
[07:38] <feross> Ktron: is the sata going to a SATA card or into the MOBO?
[07:38] <Ktron> feross: mobo
[07:38] <hamdan> bash: make: command not found
[07:38] <hamdan> help me
[07:38] <POVaddct> hamdan: apt-get install build-essential
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> install the build-essential package yet?
[07:38] <don_jr> erUSUL I have xorg.0.log and xorg.0.log.old....OMG this thing is case sensitive isn't it?? lol
[07:38] <Ktron> feross: and I disconnected every other drive I have except for my 2 optical drives
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> !source
[07:38] <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
[07:38] <blabi1> DemonSeed: Still nothing when I open it.
[07:38] <insanity_> could someone be so kind and look over my apt prob. i wanted to install bmpx from their repo with the key to authenticate. but it wont work. also these "ign" in the update are curious to me.... here is a dump: http://rafb.net/paste/results/QnALm269.html
[07:39] <Dr_Willis> grr wrong bot note. :P
[07:39] <erUSUL> don_jr: yes it is
[07:39] <feross> Ktron: might have to do some research to see if mobo is supported.
[07:39] <DeMoNSeEd> rtry running it from cli, see what it says
[07:39] <Ktron> mobo supported by ubuntu?
[07:39] <insanity_> thx
[07:39] <don_jr> erUSUL forgot that, I got it open now, the last line should be where the problem is??
[07:39] <blabi1> Demon: how do I run it from cli?
[07:39] <DeMoNSeEd> open a term
[07:39] <DeMoNSeEd> type frostwire
[07:40] <blabi1> k
[07:40] <erUSUL> don_jr: take a look at the whole log...
[07:40] <don_jr> erUSUL I am, but not sure what I"m looking for
[07:40] <Ktron> feross: like whether it is listed on here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:40] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, does it come up
[07:40] <matahari> hi
[07:40] <blabi1> Demon: OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE.
[07:40] <blabi1> what does that mean?
[07:40] <erUSUL> don_jr: what is exactly your problem?
[07:40] <IceTox> ok, that sucked. :|
[07:40] <DanaG> !amarok
[07:40] <DeMoNSeEd> have you installed java
[07:40] <ubotu> amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.2 and packages are available for Kubuntu at: http://www.imbrandon.com/2006/08/23/get-it-hot-amarok-142-released/
[07:41] <feross> Ktron: that's a start but you could also google it and see how ther distros are dealing with it
[07:41] <blabi1> Demon: No, how do I do that?
[07:41] <feross> brb
[07:41] <hamdan> how i can switch to root in terminal
[07:41] <matahari> how can i install ubuntu server without a cd/dvd-drive or a floppy?
[07:41] <POVaddct> hamdan: sudo -s
[07:41] <DeMoNSeEd> go back into synaptic
[07:41] <don_jr> erUSUL when I try to run Ubuntu for the first time after a text based install, it loads the drivers and the last thing I see is 'starting kernel' or something to that effect, the screen goes black and sit's there
[07:42] <erUSUL> don_jr: post the log to a pastebin. i'll take a look
[07:42] <erUSUL> !paste > don_jr
[07:42] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, have you activated all your repos?
[07:42] <don_jr> erUSUL it's not on the machine I'm on, it's on another....I cna't copy and paste it
[07:43] <don_jr> erUSUL is there a way I can get into this chat room from the bash command with out the GUI?
[07:43] <blabi1> Demon: not sure what you mean....but I don't think so.
[07:43] <howekern> I'm having a problem with my synaptics touchpad: when I click it (with it's button, not by taping) it holds the button down til I touch the mousing surface.
[07:43] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, kk
[07:43] <POVaddct> don_jr: yes, use irssi
[07:43] <Dr_Willis> irssi is a fun console based irc client.
[07:43] <erUSUL> don_jr: transfer a copy of the log to your computer (scp??)
[07:43] <Dr_Willis> full of yummy console goodness.
[07:44] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, tell me did you register your nick on freenode
[07:44] <POVaddct> irssi is THE irc client, to be precise
[07:44] <blabi1> Demon: yes I have in the past
[07:44] <DeMoNSeEd> k
[07:44] <don_jr> erUSUL how would I go about doing that?  I'll try that first
[07:44] <Nitrobass24> How do i setup a raid in Ubuntu?
[07:44] <DeMoNSeEd> 1 sec
[07:44] <jbroome> !raid > Nitrobass24
[07:44] <blabi1> Demon...wait.....I registered a diffrent nic
[07:44] <erUSUL> don_jr: or like POVaddct said use irssi (is what i'm using) and post it to #flood
[07:45] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, did you get my pm
[07:45] <mTec[s] nzk> I can'tget my wireless card to work
[07:45] <erUSUL> !wifi
[07:45] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:45] <mTec[s] nzk> Its a belkin f5d8010, I followed all the instcutions
[07:45] <Ktron> feross: found one site that says you 'have to jump through some hoops' to get it to work, and used the text-based/verbose install
[07:45] <DeMoNSeEd> blabi1, pm me
[07:45] <don_jr> erUSUL I've got irssi running, how do I connect to the freenode server?  I tried 'connect irc.freenode.net" and it did nothing
[07:45] <blabi1> Demon: you getting my replies?
[07:45] <Zatoichi> ign=Ignore ?
[07:46] <DeMoNSeEd> nope
[07:46] <DeMoNSeEd> k
[07:46] <jbroome> don_jr: /connect irc.freenode.net
[07:46] <hamdan> there are a driver for "speedstream 4060" ??
[07:46] <feross> Ktron: ahh, so it is a problem
[07:46] <bilss_> hi
[07:46] <DeMoNSeEd> do this if ya want
[07:46] <DeMoNSeEd> go here
[07:46] <root_> Okay I'm here now

[07:47] <jbroome> nice.  irc as root
[07:47] <don_jr> erUSUL root_ is me! lol now how do I get open the log file from inside here to copy it for you?
[07:47] <POVaddct> don_jr: quit irssi by saying /quit. then re-start it like this: irssi -c irc.freenode.net
[07:47] <CVirus> I installed on my lappy and I cant access it locally but works remotely !! what could be wrong ?
[07:47] <POVaddct> don_jr: the do: /j #ubuntu
[07:47] <CVirus> I installed apache*
[07:47] <CVirus> I installed apache on my lappy and I cant access it locally but works remotely !! what could be wrong ?
[07:47] <hamdan> help me with speed stream 4060
[07:47] <DeMoNSeEd> blabit, still here
[07:47] <erUSUL> don_jr: do not paste it here join #flood and #ubuntu
[07:47] <mTec[s] nzk> My link quality is always 0/100
[07:47] <mTec[s] nzk> Everything else is set up right
[07:47] <insanity_> could someone be so kind and look over my apt prob. i wanted to install bmpx from their repo with the key to authenticate. but it wont work. also these "ign" in the update are curious to me.... here is a dump: http://rafb.net/paste/results/QnALm269.html
[07:48] <longwave> mTec[s] nzk: link quality is not properly reported by all wireless drivers
[07:48] <howekern> Mine always reports that as well, could just be something about the drivers.
[07:48] <howekern> Does it work with that link quality?
[07:48] <don_jr> erUSUL I will, I've got to figure out how to copy/paste in nano...
[07:48] <mTec[s] nzk> It doesnt work
[07:48] <tjcarter> hey all, what's the procedure for building a "normal" ubuntu kernel?  Normal by ubuntu standards
[07:48] <howekern> Ah, well.
[07:48] <mTec[s] nzk> It can see the router and connect to it
[07:48] <jbroome> tjcarter: apt-get install
[07:48] <mTec[s] nzk> But not working and 0/100 quality
[07:48] <longwave> !kernel > tjcarter
[07:48] <tjcarter> jbroome: Need 2.6.17
[07:48] <tjcarter> jbroome: don't want edgy  ;)
[07:49] <howekern> When you say "connect to it," do you get an I.P. address?
[07:49] <erUSUL> don_jr: don't bother with that... when in flood use '/exec -out cat /var/log/xorg.0.log'
[07:49] <howekern> I assume you're using DHCP.
[07:49] <mTec[s] nzk> Nope
[07:49] <mTec[s] nzk> Only an inet6 address
[07:49] <longwave> mTec[s] nzk: does "sudo iwlist scan" show your access point?
[07:49] <CVirus> I installed apache on my lappy and I cant access it locally but works remotely !! what could be wrong ?
[07:49] <mTec[s] nzk> Yes
[07:49] <erUSUL> don_jr: be sure to do it in #flood
[07:49] <erUSUL> don_jr: not here
[07:49] <eternalswd> anyone know how to keep Nautilus from opening automatically when a cd/dvd is inserted?
[07:50] <longwave> CVirus: is apache set to listen on all interfaces or just eth0 or whatever?
[07:50] <mTec[s] nzk> But like I said, its still 0/100 cant surf
[07:50] <howekern> I actually have the same problem; for whatever reason, the Gnome network config dialog can correctly bring up my card.
[07:50] <root_> okay I"m back in here now.  How do I join another chanel?
[07:50] <longwave> CVirus: either that, or do you have any firewall rules in place?
[07:50] <erUSUL> don_jr: i can not see you in #flood have you joined?
[07:50] <liketoprogram> can any of you tell me where ubuntu puts the actual data files for catalogues ?  i cant find them =(
[07:50] <feross> insanity_: you answered n at the end
[07:50] <root_> erUSUL how do I join #flood from irssi?
[07:50] <howekern> Are you using wpa_supplicant?
[07:50] <Jack_Sparrow> root /join #Kubuntu
[07:50] <erUSUL> eternalswd: System>Prefe>removable media
[07:50] <CVirus> longwave: I'm not using any firewall
[07:50] <longwave> mTec[s] nzk: disregard the 0/100, it will probably always show 0
[07:51] <erUSUL> root_: '/j #flod'
[07:51] <POVaddct> root_: /j #channelname.  and use esc 2 .. esc 3 .. esc 4 to switch irssi windows
[07:51] <matahari> is there any ubuntu-install cd available with less than 500 MB?
[07:51] <CVirus> longwave: I can access it remotely but not locally
[07:51] <erUSUL> root_: '/j #flood'
[07:51] <mTec[s] nzk> longwave: but it wont work!
[07:51] <Jack_Sparrow> CVirus: If you are in Linux you have one by default
[07:51] <mTec[s] nzk> Other people with my card and my drivers have 100/100
[07:51] <tjcarter> longwave: thanks, that's what I needed
[07:51] <mTec[s] nzk> But mine is jsut messed up
[07:51] <feross> insanity_: you answered n on the last question apt asked
[07:51] <eternalswd> erUSUL, thanks
[07:51] <longwave> mTec[s] nzk: what card/drivers?
[07:51] <howekern> Mine reports 0/100 always, including right now.
[07:51] <longwave> CVirus: by default, apache2 should listen on localhost as well as external interfaces
[07:51] <howekern> It may just be the card?
[07:51] <mTec[s] nzk> belkin f5d8010/netani drivers
[07:51] <islan> how do you install updated nvidia drivers again?
[07:52] <longwave> CVirus: did you change the apache2 config anywhere?
[07:52] <CVirus> longwave: never touched it
[07:52] <Ktron> feross: yep, I'm trying to find if anyone has listed what those hoops are
[07:52] <mikey3521> Could anyone here offer support for installing it on a DellPowerEdge, with perc raid?
[07:52] <mTec[s] nzk> I wish it could at least surf
[07:52] <liketoprogram> meaning, when i create a new table, where are teh new files written?
[07:52] <mTec[s] nzk> But it cant
[07:52] <insanity_> erUSUL: i posted a problem there. when u finish that with don_jr  could you look after it?
[07:52] <longwave> liketoprogram: what "tables" are you talking about?
[07:52] <mTec[s] nzk> I have a 5 page discussion about my problem in the ubuntu forums
[07:53] <mTec[s] nzk> The greatest minds in the world can't figure out what is wrong
[07:53] <feross> insanity_: you answered 'n' you need to answer 'y' on the last question of apt... sheeeshhhhhhhh
[07:53] <feross> man this guy doesn't read
[07:53] <liketoprogram> longwave:  tables in a catalogue in mysql..  i can't figure out where it's storing the physical files for the catalogues/tables
[07:53] <jayt> bbrazil, u about?
[07:53] <erUSUL> insanity_: where? in #flood? i have just joined to see the log of flood i can not see what you posted...
[07:53] <insanity_> ohh... yes.. but i wanted to solve this right
[07:53] <howekern> So, um... my track pad is gerbroke.  Halp?
[07:53] <longwave> liketoprogram: look in /var/lib/mysql
[07:53] <insanity_> feross: http://rafb.net/paste/results/QnALm269.html
[07:54] <longwave> liketoprogram: though you should not touch these files yourself, use mysql/mysqldump to edit and read the tables
[07:54] <CVirus> longwave: so what do you think ?
[07:54] <CarlFK> I plug in a usb card reader and dmesg shows: [17624804.172000]  sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda
[07:54] <CarlFK> but it doesn't auto mount, and trying to manually mount it: mount: special device /dev/sga does not exist
do u fancy helping me with a prob http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21647
[07:54] <longwave> CVirus: i dont know, sorry, my apache2 works on localhost straight away..
[07:54] <don_jr> erUSUL did you get the log in #flood? or do I need to run it again?
[07:54] <feross> insanity_: yes I saw that, you have to say 'y' on the last question apt gives you
[07:54] <liketoprogram> longwave: thanks =)   it looks like it makes directories for catalogues..  i just wanted to make sure that the files were delted when i removed the tables =)  thanks again!
[07:54] <howekern> Uhm it reports /dev/sda, but you try to mount /dev/sga?

[07:54] <CarlFK> doh
[07:54] <CarlFK> thanks
[07:55] <longwave> liketoprogram: yes, each database is just a directory, then each table is a set of files inside that directory
[07:55] <Ktron> CarlFK: Kaelten?
[07:55] <POVaddct> raghu206: do. not. paste. here.  use #flood
[07:55] <insanity_> feross: but then its unauthenticted... and apt brings it up on everything now
[07:55] <CVirus> longwave: tcp6       0      0 *:www                   *:*                     LISTEN
[07:55] <CarlFK> Ktron: Karsten
[07:55] <erUSUL> don_jr: i'm seeing it but is comming slowly
[07:55] <feross> insanity_: they are not verified by Ubuntu so it's no big deal as long as you trust where you are installing them from..
[07:55] <feross> insanity_: you mean verified
[07:55] <Ktron> CarlFK: nvm, I know someone else who goes buy KarlFK or Kaelten
[07:56] <longwave> CVirus: the *:www means "all interfaces listening on port 80" so you *should* be able to connect to localhost...
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: You need to post the resluts of those other two commands.. but I doubt I wll have time to fix it before the wife needs my help
[07:56] <don_jr> erUSUL okay I have another one.  That is Xorg.0.log I also havve Xorg.0.log.old
[07:56] <CVirus> longwave: so what the heck could be wrong !
[07:56] <raghu206> HOW TO  configure hardware acceleration
[07:56] <insanity_> feross: yeah... thats right.. but it should because i added the key
[07:56] <erUSUL> don_jr: one is enough
[07:56] <jayt> strange sound issue, I have general audio and games and the like but chromium is not making any noise at all (and it does not play well without the guns :))
[07:56] <longwave> CVirus: what error are you getting when you visit http://localhost/ ?
 sure I'll prepare it for some other time :)
[07:56] <POVaddct> raghu206: you can only configure that if your gfx card is supported
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: Hope you understand why I would need those..
[07:56] <feross> insanity_: no that has nothing to do with it. the key is just so you can get into the repository..
[07:56] <don_jr> erUSUL Okay, just got KDE installd on this computer, I'm going to restart I'm stillin the #flood room
 just a little
[07:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: As well as why I need to help the wife..  :)
[07:57] <feross> insanity_: it's not verified because it's not an Ubuntu team maintained package
[07:57] <CVirus> longwave:

[07:58] <feross> evert: what's the problem
[07:58] <Hellevater> or http://ubuntuguide.org

[08:00] <CVirus> longwave: I can easily access it remotely
[08:00] <HanzZ> hi... i make debian package and when i install him, i haven't any files from package in /etc... only directories ... what is wrong?
[08:00] <howekern> You probably installed grub to the superblock of the windows drive.
[08:01] <evert> but
[08:01] <evert> than i would being able to boot windows not ?
[08:01] <HanzZ> *ubuntu... :) but before few minutes, i asked on debian...
[08:01] <evert> i only can boot windows when the ubuntu disk is connected => so grub is installed on the ubuntu disk ?
[08:01] <howekern> I think you could zero that out, and if your winblows partition is flagges as bootable, it would boot.
[08:01] <Paddy_EIRE> What is the name of that Ubuntu screen recorder
[08:01] <howekern> But I have no idea how to do that.
[08:01] <evert> but then i would being able to boot windows (then there is no grub on that disk)
[08:01] <Tailsfan> screen recorder?
[08:02] <raghu206> POVaddct, direct rendering: No
[08:02] <liketoprogram> is there a program that's open source, and that works like  partition magic, in that it will resize one of my ntfs partitions and let me make my root linux partition larger?
[08:02] <marshall_> does anybody have a good and working sources.list i can see?
 yeah it records a video of what your doing on screen
[08:02] <howekern> Not that I know of.
[08:02] <feross> evert: I think you should just run the XP recovery and do a fixmbr, that should resolve it.
[08:02] <Tailsfan> Oh
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> liketoprogram,  qtparted/gparted/parted - avail on many live cd's :P
[08:02] <howekern> At least, not that works with ntfs.
[08:02] <marshall_> liketoprogram:  gparted?
[08:02] <evert> ok
[08:02] <evert> so i'll do fixmbr and everything is back ok ?
[08:03] <marshall_> does anybody have a good and working sources.list i can see?
 yeah
[08:03] <feross> evert: if the windows drive is the first disk, yes
[08:03] <evert> i'll try the fixmmbr
[08:03] <evert> cya

[08:03] <FantasticFoo> can anybody please help?

[08:03] <marshall_> Paddy_EIRE:  can i get a pastebin of it?
 sure where is the file again lol
[08:04] <CVirus> longwave: guess what ? the loopback interface wasnt up
[08:04] <POVaddct> raghu206: make sure that 1) the agp kernel module for your board chipset is loaded, 2) the Section "Module" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf has Load  "dri" in it, 3) the i810 or i915 kernel module is loaded
[08:04] <sorush20> hi guys how do I install documentaion pakcages for quanta plus in kubuntu dapper? I can't find anything relevant in the repositories..
[08:04] <marshall_> Paddy_EIRE:  /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:04] <Paddy_EIRE> yes
[08:04] <ych> is there such a thing as a console based browser?
[08:04] <jbroome> yes
[08:04] <marshall_> sorush20:  quanta is sexy
[08:04] <jbroome> w3m, links, lynx
[08:05] <sorush20> marshall_: I don't really know about that.
[08:05] <longwave> CVirus: haha i would never have thought of checking that!
[08:05] <sorush20> but I just want to have all the packages if possible..
[08:05] <don_jr> Okay, I loaded KDE but it looks like it's still GNOME after it's rebooted?  how can I tell it to load KDE instead?
[08:05] <CVirus> longwave: I have been trying all sorts of things for the past 2 hours
[08:05] <sorush20> there is nothing in adept but there are sources which i will have to compile and install etc..
[08:05] <longwave> CVirus: in fact i'm surprised X still works if loopback is down, doesn't it use it for internal communications?
[08:05] <marshall_> sorush20:  lol
[08:06] <CVirus> longwave: hmm
[08:06] <CVirus> longwave: I dont think so

[08:06] <tjcarter> longwave: there's a small problem with those directions..  There's no binary-debs rule in debian/rules (2.6.17-6.18).  I haven't checked the included makefiles yet, but I believe make is probably not lying  ;)
[08:06] <feross> don_jr: there's an options button on the login screen, select session>KDE if I recall correctly

[08:08] <feross> ladydoor: what.. ohh there's a constitution.. let's go tell Bush about it.
[08:08] <marshall_> IceTox:  linux has a hard time understanding ntfs (probably because ms wants it that way) but you can set it up with fuse to read/write to the windows partitions
[08:08] <DanaG> I want to get the new libvisual from edgy.
[08:08] <ladydoor> feross: good point
[08:09] <erUSUL> !ntfs > IceTox

[08:20] <feross> Marsmensch: hmm, well the syntax is probably different with sbackup than nautilus or you probably need a switch to tell sbackup to connect via ssh. never used sobackup so just guessing.
[08:20] <ladydoor> is anyone using irssi? i'm a little confused
[08:20] <PingunZ> ladydoor: np I just removed the Icons :)

[08:23] <ishan> model number
[08:23] <longwave> ladydoor: what are you trying to do with irssi at startup? if it just settings and network/server/channel autojoins you can do that without a startup file, just set the right things in irssi then /save
[08:23] <ladydoor> Afief: do you have any other window managers installed?
[08:23] <ishan> i dont knw
[08:24] <ishan> Manufacturer is qualcom

[08:24] <ishan> it uses a usb to serial cable to connect to the pc
[08:24] <ishan> in windows i had to install drivcers 4 that cable too
[08:24] <Afief> Ladydoor: Only the default metacy + XGL/Compiz

[08:25] <feross> Marsmensch: try without ssh:// just user:pass@host/dir
[08:25] <ishan> wat??
[08:25] <Marsmensch> ok mom
[08:25] <bassy> does anyone know how to get apache to load php when it starts, ie. i'm trying to install jinzora, and it seems apache is loading fine, but php isn't working?
[08:25] <ladydoor> Afief: ok, can you start synaptic? i just want to see whether you can type in anything other than gnome
[08:25] <ladydoor> Afief: try installing the package fluxbox
[08:25] <DanaG> Is it possible to install a package and ignore its dependencies?
[08:25] <longwave> ladydoor: check out the autosendcmd switch for /network - /help network should show you how to use it
[08:25] <POVaddct> ishan: if you are lucky, the usb-serial part runs with one of the standard linux drivers (usbserial, pl2303, ftdi, ...)
[08:25] <ladydoor> DanaG: not w/o breaking it
[08:25] <DanaG> I'm trying to install libvisual-plugins-0.4.0
[08:25] <doctormo> DanaG: why would you want to do that?
[08:25] <Marsmensch> hmmm feross, doesn't work either
[08:25] <ladydoor> longwave: sweet! thanks muchly
[08:26] <longwave> ladydoor: that is how i identify to nickserv across several networks
[08:26] <ishan> how can i install it?
[08:26] <Afief> Ladydoor: synaptic is broken due to some upgraded package i got, but i can type in the login screen and in other accounts
[08:26] <ishan> plz tell me new to linux
[08:26] <POVaddct> ishan: anyway, if the actual modem is a winmodem, chances are small that it runs at all
[08:26] <feross> ishan: I know the cable you are talking about but I never tried installing one.. You need to have more information about it to install it.
[08:26] <ishan> more info??
[08:26] <ishan> like wat??
[08:27] <feross> ishan: usually you will see on the cable who makes it and what the model number is.
[08:27] <ishan> i dont think that its a winmodem
[08:27] <ladydoor> Afief: i've not heard of upgrades breaking synaptic...and i guess you can't type in gnome...ok, try this:  press control+alt+F1. you will see a fullscreen terminal
[08:27] <ishan> its not built in to the system
[08:27] <ladydoor> Afief: but don't worry, this will be painless
[08:27] <feross> ishan: does it say Belkin on the cable?
[08:27] <ishan> I am sure theere was no name on the cable
[08:27] <bassy> does anyone know how to get apache to load php when it starts, ie. i'm trying to install jinzora, and it seems apache is loading fine, but php isn't working?
[08:27] <IceTox> allright marshall_!! You rock ;)
[08:27] <feross> ishan: were there any lights on the cable
[08:27] <ishan> but let me find some info on win drivers
[08:28] <don_jr> I run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it gives me a list of drivers to choose from, which should I choose to run my geforce mx4000?
[08:28] <ishan> no lights
[08:28] <ladydoor> Afief: i guess let me know when you're there
[08:28] <POVaddct> ishan: lsusb, identify the vendor/product id of the cable/modem and google for it
[08:28] <IceTox> thanks a lot marshall_. Now I may read and write my disks like hell :)
[08:28] <POVaddct> gotta go
[08:28] <Afief> ladydoor: i'm there, should i log into my account?
[08:28] <ishan> googled already
[08:28] <ladydoor> Afief: yup! then type sudo aptitude update
[08:28] <ishan> no use
[08:28] <ladydoor> Afief: followed by sudo aptitude upgrade
[08:28] <mcphail> bassy: use a2enmod
[08:29] <ladydoor> Afief: and i guess let me know if it upgrades any packages that sound like they may have anything do do with this :-)
[08:29] <longwave> bassy: did you install libapache2-mod-php4 or whatever?
[08:29] <islan> if my screensaver is running really slow, is it probably because of my graphics card?
[08:29] <feross> ishan: yes
[08:29] <ishan> the phones manufacturer is qualcom & its a CDMA phone
[08:29] <bassy> hmm, not sure, i have php installed, would that have come with the main install?
[08:29] <longwave> bassy: then "sudo a2enmod php4" should enable php4 support after you restart apache
[08:30] <feross> islan: yes, or your cpu/memory are being hogged by it. Old computer?
[08:30] <bassy> same for php5?
[08:30] <ishan> wat??
[08:30] <longwave> bassy: yes
[08:30] <bassy> thanks so much guys for the response...
[08:30] <islan> feross, not really, P4, 512MB RAM, but it may be doing sore on my GeForce 5700LE
[08:30] <ishan> i am ishan,not islam
[08:30] <Afief> ladydoor: my compiz packages are being upgraded
[08:30] <ishan> or islan!!!
[08:31] <feross> ishan: yeah, autocomplete picks you first :)
[08:31] <islan> feross, I'm going to see about upgrading my drivers to see if that might help
[08:31] <ladydoor> Afief: shiny...ok, when that's done, you should type "sudo aptitude install fluxbox fbconf"
[08:31] <marshall_> IceTox:  no problem man
[08:31] <ishan> feross:k
[08:31] <feross> islan: true, or you might just need to enable 3d for the card.
[08:32] <Afief> ladydoor: what do i need fluxbox for?
[08:32] <DanaG> Okay, I installed the package, but I still don't have any visualizations.
[08:32] <ishan> hey man
[08:32] <ladydoor> Afief: i've found it's good to have a backup window manager :-)
[08:32] <ishan> I have an external serial modem too
[08:32] <ishan> cant i install it??
[08:32] <DanaG> Aaargh, libvisual is broken.
[08:32] <IceTox> Well, you found me a easy to read manual marshall_. Not many linux "oldies" are that friendly. Thanks again. *goes jerking off*
[08:32] <ladydoor> Afief: also, it'll let us see whether it's just gnome that won't let you type
[08:33] <ladydoor> Afief: you can feel free to uninstall it later (or not install it now, whatever)
[08:33] <kilps> hi all - can someone give me a hand with the problem i am having with winetools or should i be asking somewere else?
[08:33] <feross> ishan: well that could be easier instead of trying to install the usb<->serial cable and a modem on top of it.
[08:33] <marshall_> IceTox:  lol i just followed that howto and i had it bookmarked
[08:33] <ishan> k help me to install then
[08:33] <Afief> ladydoor: couldn't find fbconf
[08:33] <dannylapt> I am new to linux. I am trying to change to a directory called "Virtual Machines". I tryed cd /"Virtual Machines" and everything else I could think of, can someone help me with the syntax?
[08:33] <marshall_> IceTox:  ive only been using linux (ubuntu) for one year
[08:33] <ladydoor> Afief: meh, it's not important
[08:33] <er4z0r> what file do i need to edit to prevent a module from getting loaded at boottime?
[08:33] <IceTox> so as I did just minutes ago.. *grins*
[08:33] <marshall_> IceTox:  lol
[08:33] <mcphail> kilps: dannylapt cd Virtual\ Machines
[08:34] <IceTox> well, I guess we all dump into the same freakin problems than marshall_ ;)
[08:34] <habeeb> Hmm after my previous reboot (second reboot totally) I lost my sound, while it was working allright before.
[08:34] <mcphail> kilps: sorry - not for you
[08:34] <ishan> hey??
[08:34] <dannylapt> alright, thanks
[08:34] <habeeb> I also dont have alsaconf :/
[08:34] <seedyburner> I'm having trouble installing my vid drivers... Anyone willing to help a n00b?
[08:34] <kilps> no worries  mcphail - should i b asking somewhere else about winetools?
[08:34] <mcphail> dannylapt: remember to use tab completion in BASH
[08:34] <ladydoor> Afief: ok, i guess now press control+alt+f7 to go back to the GUI...now, you can either log out of gnome and into fluxbox to see whether fluxbox will let you type, or you can see whether rebooting after those upgrades will allow you to type (and use synaptic...if not, try aptitude)
[08:34] <Afief> ladydoor: downloading. could you just tell me why we're using aptitude instead of apt-get?
[08:34] <Jack_Sparrow> I seem to have random resart of x when using the arrow key to move between the different screensavers (Default COllection-none added)
[08:35] <mcphail> kilps: i don't think that winetools is supported by _anyone_ anymore
[08:35] <marshall_> IceTox:  true enough man
[08:35] <ishan> help me to install my serial modem which works at 115300 bps
[08:35] <feross> ishan: pppconfig in Terminal to set up your connection
[08:35] <don_jr> Okay xserver failed to start WW NV: no matching device section for instance (busID PCI:1:9:0) found (EE) no devices detected.  Fatal server error: no screens found
[08:35] <kilps> oh ... right ... ok - i'll try something else first then
[08:35] <kilps> thanks
[08:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: what type of modem?
[08:35] <varsendaggr> hey how do i make a playlist that my mp3 player can understand
[08:35] <marshall_> IceTox:  right now im looking for some jumpers to set up my computer downstairs as a server
[08:35] <feross> ishan: pon name_of_the_connection to connect, maybe you'll have to "modprobe ppp_generic" if that module is not already loaded
[08:35] <DanaG> Does ANYONE have working visualizations in Amarok?
[08:35] <blabit> demonseed: you round?
[08:35] <ishan> but pppconfig doesnt identify my modem
[08:36] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: what type of modem?
[08:36] <ladydoor> Afief: aptitude is an advanced frontend to apt-get (which is in turn an advance frontend to something else)...aptitude has the nice advantage of keeping track of dependencies--so if you install a program that wants 20 other things to be installed, none of which are required by another program, if you later uninstall that one program, it will uninstall the orphaned dependencies if nothing else is using them. apt-get won't do this
[08:36] <ishan> its a serial dial up modem
[08:36] <ETronik> Hoe do I move the /home to another HD/Partition ?
[08:36] <ladydoor> Afief: plus it has a neater name :-)
[08:36] <Herbal> Hey, when i smb://192.168.0.103/LappyDrive i can view the files but when i try to paste it says acess denied, how can i get write access
[08:36] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: what BRAND or model #
[08:36] <DanaG> Anyone?...
[08:36] <IceTox> oh, that sounds interesting marshall_. All though, I've never used other than debian for server :)
[08:36] <ishan> Aiji systems AP-110
[08:36] <Afief> ladydoor: if the dependency hell didn't convince me the neat name did:D
[08:37] <ishan> Its actually a CDMA phone
[08:37] <ladydoor> Afief: shiny!
[08:37] <ETronik> anybody here using Win4Lin Pro ??
[08:37] <habeeb> Can someone help me restore my sound? :/ I dont have alsaconf, and alsamixer shows different stuff from the previous reboot...
[08:37] <seedyburner> Will someone help with vid driver install?
[08:37] <ladydoor> Afief: i guess at this point you're on your own though--let me know what happens with fluxbox and/or reboot (whichever route you take)
[08:38] <Afief> ladydoor: yes i can type just normal in fluxbox
[08:38] <crimsun> habeeb: pastebin the output from ``cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer''
[08:38] <ishan> hey?? where is my help tem???
[08:38] <ladydoor> Afief: hm. ok, that's freaky-weird. and gnome won't let you type in any program?
[08:38] <Ricesteam> Hi, I just bought a new monitor. What steps do I take to update the drives without having to reinstall Ubuntu?
[08:38] <ishan> where is my help team?/
[08:38] <marshall_> IceTox:  im a complete noob to servers. is debian small and easy?
[08:38] <foo> Does ubuntu server have xinetd or inetd ?
[08:38] <feross> ishan: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_configure_dialup_connections

[08:39] <ishan> yeah a wirles phone
[08:39] <longwave> foo: xinetd is in main
[08:39] <Lastent> hi i reinstalled windows and now i can get the grub
[08:39] <Afief> ladydoor: tried a few, couldn't type in any, but i just noticed that i can move windows with alt+mouse
[08:39] <Lastent> what can i do?
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: I thought you said a serial modem>
[08:40] <crimsun> habeeb: so which do you want to use as the primary sound device, the onboard or the sblive?
[08:40] <ladydoor> ok...hm. this'll sound stupid, but what programs?
[08:40] <longwave> !grub
[08:40] <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
[08:40] <davin> how do I delete a user from the terminal?
[08:40] <longwave> davin: "userdel"
[08:41] <davin> longwave: cheers mate
[08:41] <ishan> yeh its 4n with built in serial modem
[08:41] <Galadraal> hi
[08:41] <habeeb> crimsun: I'd prefer the sblive, but onboard is easier :P
[08:41] <ishan> it connects at 115300bps
[08:41] <mcphail> davin: "deluser" would be preferred
[08:41] <habeeb> crimsun: but yes, if you could help me for sblive, it would be better.
[08:41] <Lastent> thanks ubotu
[08:41] <foo> longwave: in the main what?
[08:41] <crimsun> habeeb: are you using gnome?
[08:41] <foo> ladydoor: How can I tell? I don't see it in ps aux?
[08:41] <habeeb> crimsun: yes
[08:42] <crimsun> habeeb: use System> Preferences> Sound> Set default card
[08:42] <Afief> ladydoor: inkscape, gedit, gnome terminal, lyx
[08:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: What type of system gets that on a single phone line?
[08:42] <davin> longwave, mcphail: when I try and delete his home dir it says access restricted, ive tried chown
[08:42] <ishan> i cant understand your question
[08:42] <habeeb> Hmm I have two options crimsun : CA0106, intelich5. CA0106 was default..
[08:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: Are you physically conneting the phone to your PC?
[08:42] <ladydoor> Afief: so a variety, then...i guess my only suggestion at this point would be to try rebooting. good luck!
[08:42] <habeeb> crimsun: Isnt CA0106 the sblivce?
[08:42] <ishan> yeah
[08:42] <Afief> ladydoor: okay this is weird it DOES type, but i need to hold the key for a second
[08:43] <ishan> via the serial cable
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: serial port?
[08:43] <crimsun> habeeb: yes
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[08:43] <Afief> ladydoor: rebooted already, no result
[08:43] <mcphail> davin: sudo rm -rf /home/user should do the trick
[08:43] <longwave> foo: in the main package repository
[08:43] <ishan> yes
[08:43] <martinz> no
[08:43] <habeeb> crimsun: :/ so ... Why I need, sound..
[08:43] <tuna> habeeb: I have the same problem, lost sound sometime after yesterday morning, and sb live doesnt show up in the settings/sound
[08:43] <habeeb> crimsun: Translation: So why dont I have sound? :P
[08:43] <martinz> no
[08:43] <ladydoor> Afief: :-(...that goes for all keys?
[08:43] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: do they supply windows drivers with the phone?
[08:43] <foo> longwave: I see
[08:43] <ishan> yes
[08:43] <martinz> no
[08:43] <ishan> no no no
[08:43] <crimsun> habeeb: pastebin your ~/.asoundrc*
[08:43] <Galadraal> I recently installed Ubuntu on my mac, and managed to boot on it but since i installed Mac OS X on another partition, I can't find a way to get back to Ubuntu, can someone help me please?
[08:43] <ishan> it uses generic drivers
[08:43] <foo> How can I find out if I'm using inetd or xinetd? I can't seem to be able to find it in ps aux
[08:44] <ladydoor> martinz: you don't buy money either, unless you're converting currency...
[08:44] <ishan> generic 19200bps modem drivers
[08:44] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: I need to read that tech data
[08:44] <davin> mcphail: cheers, it worked, could you enlighten me on what -rf is?
[08:44] <ladydoor> martinz: though if you know i can buy $20 for cheap, let me know!
[08:44] <dannylapt> I am new to linux. I am trying to change to a directory called "Virtual Machines". I tryed cd /"Virtual Machines" and everything else I could think of, can someone help me with the syntax? I also tried cd /Virtual Machines
[08:44] <ishan> wat tech data??
[08:44] <habeeb> Fixed it crimsun , I had the cables in the CPU one..
[08:44] <mcphail> davin: recursive and forced
[08:44] <habeeb> I am a retard <:
[08:44] <martinz> ladydoor: don't tell me, tell Ronnie James Dio instead :)
[08:44] <dannylapt> I also tryed Virtual/ Machines
[08:44] <jpowermacg5> Anyone know if Edgy is scheduled to come out anytime soon?
[08:44] <ishan> wat tech data??
[08:44] <Afief> ladydoor: yes, even alt behaves this way, and all the letters do for certain
[08:44] <ladydoor> dannylapt: what directory is virtual machines in?
[08:44] <davin> mcphail: forced it is then, because -R alone didnt work either
[08:45] <tuna> my .asoundrc is blank
[08:45] <emptiespace> anyone got multitech mt2834zdx modem?
[08:45] <dannylapt> vmware
[08:45] <davin> mcphail, longwave: thanks again!
[08:45] <mcphail> davin: next time read "man deluser" to see options to remove homedir automatically
[08:45] <ishan> hey,wat tech data??
[08:45] <davin> will do :)
[08:45] <habeeb> Thanks crimsun
[08:45] <Galadraal> are there people running both MacOS X and Ubuntu here?
[08:45] <ladydoor> Afief: that's bizarre. i honestly don't know what to tell you (other than "don't use gnome," but that's mean)
[08:45] <ladydoor> Afief: sorry...good luck with getting that working!
[08:45] <bassy> how do i find out what version of php i have installed, and if it's running?
[08:46] <ladydoor> martinz: lol
[08:46] <longwave> jpowermacg5: edgy is scheduled for october but it wont be out until it's ready :)
[08:46] <ishan> arent u there??
[08:46] <martinz> ladydoor: why lol? u know him? :)
[08:46] <Afief> ladydoor: it's okay, i found a setting "enable slow keys" in the keyboard settings, this was the problem
[08:46] <longwave> bassy: easiest way is with a short script that runs phpinfo()
[08:46] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: I am reading that now..  But note that just because you get a connect to it at that speed that is not what you getting on the internet
[08:46] <ladydoor> martinz: nope. it just occurred to me that the phrase "passing the buck" is eerily appropriate here
[08:46] <Afief> ladydoor: sorry for the mess but i thought the keys were completly disabled, not just slow
[08:46] <martinz> ladydoor: what does it mean?
[08:46] <ladydoor> Afief: oh! sweet! good job
[08:47] <ishan> means??
[08:47] <ladydoor> Afief: if i ever use gnome i'll remember that
[08:47] <dannylapt> I am trying to change to the directory /var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines, any idea as to the syntax to do that?
[08:47] <ishan> my real net speed is not 115300??
[08:47] <Afief> ladydoor: thanks for your help my lady
[08:47] <ladydoor> martinz: it means being like "oh, it's not my fault--it was so-and-so"
[08:47] <ishan> wat r yu reading now??
[08:47] <longwave> dannylapt: cd "/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines"
[08:47] <bassy> at the root?
[08:47] <ladydoor> Afief: no problem, my good man
[08:47] <longwave> dannylapt: you need the quotes around the folder name as it has a space in
[08:47] <martinz> ladydoor: hehe ;)
[08:47] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: I need a link for the online manual.  All I can find is the features and non-tech specs
[08:47] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: no
[08:47] <seedyburner> How do I close X and reboot in VGA?
[08:47] <dannylapt> longwave: Thanks, that was tripping me up
[08:48] <ishan> search in google for manual
[08:48] <martinz> anybody know a good music / metal irc channel=
[08:48] <martinz> ?
[08:48] <jpowermacg5> hey longwave... to make a custom ubuntu live CD.. how can you customize just the packages on ubuntu... without actually using linux to do so?
[08:48] <ishan> ill do it too
[08:48] <feross> dannylapt: also, the tab autocompletes or shows you the options when you press it twice. It's a good trick
[08:48] <mcphail> dannylapt: type "cd /var/lib/vmware/Vir" and press the tab key
[08:48] <longwave> jpowermacg5: sorry, thats a bit outside my knowledge
[08:48] <mcphail> dannylapt: (twice)
[08:48] <jpowermacg5> k
[08:48] <foo> How can I find out if I'm using inetd or xinetd? I can't seem to be able to find it in ps aux
[08:49] <jpowermacg5> i wish there was a way to have puppyOS like technology on a ubuntu CD.. so u can save changes on a live CD
[08:49] <dannylapt> longwave: what will that do?
[08:49] <Galadraal> does anyone know how to boot on Ubuntu when you have MacOSX on the same disk?
[08:49] <longwave> dannylapt: what will what do?
[08:49] <ladydoor> dannylapt: and for future reference, putting \ before a character in the terminal means to literally insert that character (such as a space or an exclamation point) instead of interpreting it as something special
[08:49] <ishan> any luck??
[08:49] <ladydoor> dannylapt: pressing tab twice will autocomplete for you
[08:49] <jpowermacg5> Galadraall hold C when u start the mac
[08:49] <ladydoor> dannylapt: (sometimes once)
[08:49] <longwave> foo: default install has neither, i believe
[08:49] <Galadraal> jpowermacg5 isn't C for CD booting?
[08:50] <foo> longwave: oh.
[08:50] <jpowermacg5> you not trying to install it?
[08:50] <ishan> hey??
[08:50] <jpowermacg5> it's already installed?
[08:50] <Galadraal> I already did it
[08:50] <foo> longwave: Hm, so if I want to use it, I need to install it, eh?
[08:50] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[08:50] <dannylapt> longwave: sorry, that was to mcphail
[08:50] <seedyburner> How do I close X and reboot in VGA??
[08:50] <jpowermacg5> oh well you should boot into yaboot at startup
[08:50] <foo> longwave: Do I want xinetd or inetd ?
[08:50] <Galadraal> how do you do that?
[08:50] <House> how do I go about installing mysql4?? its not listed in apt-get
[08:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: I need a link for the online manual.  All I can find is the features and non-tech specs FInd that and get back to me.
[08:50] <dannylapt> mcphail: what will pressing tab twice do?
[08:51] <longwave> foo: either will work, xinetd is newer and has more config options
[08:51] <jpowermacg5> dunno.. it should be automatic... read yaboot docs for how to force it to show up if it's not showing it
[08:51] <ishan> i searched too
[08:51] <Cap0ne> Azid0, =***
[08:51] <ishan> but i cant find it too
[08:51] <relachs> House maybe that helps http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[08:51] <ishan> wat data u need man??
[08:51] <martinz> ladydoor: do you like Black Sabbath?
[08:51] <Galadraal> ok any idea where i can find those docs?
[08:51] <foo> longwave: thanks
[08:51] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: hardware info on the modem component
[08:51] <ishan> the company doesnt give any drivers or manual with it
[08:51] <seedyburner> longwave: how do I close x and reboot in VGA?
[08:51] <jpowermacg5> yaboot's website.... possibly ubuntu manual for yaboot
[08:52] <Galadraal> ok thanks for the help :)
[08:52] <jpowermacg5> is it a PPC mac.. or intel mac?
[08:52] <Galadraal> PPC
[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: chipset.. but it looks like a winmodem with a special driver.
[08:52] <ladydoor> martinz: i never really listened to them, honestly
[08:52] <ishan> wat kind of hardwae info??
[08:52] <jpowermacg5> ok yeah.. yaboot docs
[08:52] <ladydoor> martinz: i have pretty weird tastes in music
[08:52] <marshall_> how do you make a link to a folder on the desktop?
[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: They could still be using a driver included in XP that is still a winmodem and they did give you software with that correct?
[08:52] <ladydoor> marshall_: do you mean how to you put a link to some other folder onto your desktop, or to make a link to your desktop in some other folder?
[08:53] <marshall_> ladydoor:  the first one
[08:53] <marshall_> ladydoor:  its a folder on my windows partition
[08:53] <ishan> they didnt give me anything with the 4n
[08:53] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: No manual.. no online info that you or I can find...  You need to do some legwork
[08:54] <ishan> ithey told me to install generic drivers in win xp
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: The ads say it comes with their software...
[08:54] <ishan> it worked fine
[08:54] <CorruptKode> How do i get to "General Setup"
[08:54] <ladydoor> marshall_: in a terminal, "cd ~/Desktop", then "ln -s /full/path/to/windoze/folder ."
[08:54] <ishan> but they didnt give me any softwares
[08:54] <ishan> http://www.testech-elect.com/aiji/smdk2500.htm
[08:54] <jpowermacg5> Galadreal u still there
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: The driver from XP can still be winmodem/softmodem
[08:54] <ishan> see that link
[08:54] <Galadraal> yep
[08:54] <ladydoor> marshall_: and that "." before the quote is literal--DO type it
[08:55] <ishan> i dont knw its important or not
[08:55] <Galadraal> i found some guide about yaboot
[08:55] <ishan> but just look at it
[08:55] <ladydoor> marshall_: (it means "here"
[08:55] <jpowermacg5> it says u can edit yaboot.conf for default OS
[08:55] <ladydoor> )
[08:55] <jpowermacg5> http://penguinppc.org/bootloaders/yaboot/ this guide?
[08:55] <jpowermacg5> It turns out that the change is trivially simple: in the file /etc/yaboot.conf I simply needed to add defaultos=macosx).
[08:55] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol ok
[08:55] <Galadraal> no it's a french guide
[08:55] <GNu_Joe> HELP! xchat no longer connects and xmms also will not connect to the internet, but firefox still works and other computers on the same router
[08:55] <marshall_> ladydoor:  i forget the proper format for paths that contain spaces
[08:56] <GNu_Joe> Was there any changes that would have caused that?
[08:56] <ladydoor> marshall_: well, you can type "tab" a couple times to make it autocomplete
[08:56] <ladydoor> marshall_: or you can put a backslash (\) before the space
[08:56] <Galadraal> isn't this to boot on MacOSX from ubuntu?
[08:56] <ishan> i got some urls abt the modem,u want them??
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: that does not help with this problem.
[08:56] <CorruptKode> ANy one?
[08:56] <marshall_> ladydoor:  ahhhhh ok
[08:56] <ishan> try these links
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: Sorry I cant help you...  NOt enough info for me to work with.

[08:57] <GNu_Joe> can anyone assist?

[08:58] <feross> GNu_Joe: can you ping yahoo.com?
[08:58] <Ricker> I have a newly-created ubuntu LAMP server that I just finished installing.  How do I figure out what IP address it has been assigned by my Router's DHCP server?
[08:58] <GNu_Joe> Fergy: yes
[08:58] <GNu_Joe> feross: yes
[08:58] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol i didnt know people pay for that
[08:58] <Ricker> I'm coming from a windoze world, so I'm not sure how to find out the IP of a linux box from a command lind
[08:58] <Ricker> line
[08:59] <longwave> Ricker: "/sbin/ifconfig" will list all your active interfaces and their IP addresses
[08:59] <ishan> are there enough info??
[08:59] <longwave> in fact just "ifconfig" works :)
[08:59] <Ricker> longwave:  COOL... thank you
[08:59] <BigMonkey> Trying to install Dapper on a Dell DHM with an LCD screen, but install display craps out.  Help?
[08:59] <ishan> i got some relavant web sites
[08:59] <feross> GNu_Joe: xmms and xchat don't work?
[08:59] <marshall_> ladydoor:  so you're a lady eh?
[09:00] <GNu_Joe> feross: correct anything that requires a port connection other than a web browser fails or hangs
[09:00] <feross> GNu_Joe: and you just installed a new router.
[09:00] <jpowermacg5> Galadreal maybe u need to boot with the ubuntu CD then edit yaboot.conf or something
[09:00] <ishan> dont leave me man
[09:00] <ishan> am helpless
[09:00] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: No not enough there...
[09:00] <GNu_Joe> feross: occuring with both ubuntu and xubuntu boxes but not my fc5 box all on the same router
[09:01] <Jack_Sparrow> ishan: Hang in there someone else may figure it out
[09:01] <tjcarter> this is a pain in the ass.
[09:01] <Galadraal> i'll try to find how to edi it then
[09:01] <Galadraal> i think i'll use the cd as you said
[09:01] <feross> GNu_Joe: ok hold a sec..
[09:01] <ladydoor> marshall_: this is correct!
[09:01] <GNu_Joe> feross: hooked up both boxes to the net directly and same issue
[09:01] <ishan> nothing usefull in all the urls??
[09:01] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol
[09:01] <tjcarter> edgy should make this a little better, but clearly this isn't something for the average user to do.
[09:01] <ishan> http://www.aijiwll.com/index.html
[09:02] <ladydoor> marshall_: it is no coincidence that i am celebrating the 86th anniversary of the 19th amendment today (women's right to vote)
[09:02] <ishan> go to that site to get all the info
[09:02] <ishan> thats my 4n
[09:02] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol so am i!
[09:02] <longwave> tjcarter: you might also want to look at debian's instructions for compiling kernels, as the methods are similar and their docs may be better
[09:02] <ladydoor> marshall_: for serious??? sweet!
[09:02] <feross> GNu_Joe: just guessing but fc5 prolly has upnp setup and ubuntu doesn't.
[09:02] <marshall_> ladydoor:  im wearing a party hat right now and there are banners and theres a parade going on behind me
[09:02] <BigMonkey> Help on Dapper install on a Dell DHM with an LCD screen. Install display craps out halfway through config of downloaded files.  Really want to stick to Ubuntu.  Any helpful suggestions?
[09:02] <marshall_> ladydoor:  im not even american or living in america!
[09:02] <feross> GNu_Joe: you have to open up those ports manually on the router.
[09:02] <ishan> visited the link??
[09:03] <GNu_Joe> feross: get this booted from the ubuntu 6.06 CD and can play internet radio stations
[09:03] <tuna> I lost all sound for some reason, and now when I go to settings/sound there is nothing to select in the default sound card space. Can anyone help me?
[09:03] <ladydoor> marshall_: oh! it was rude of me to assume that
[09:03] <feross> GNu_Joe: or get upnp working.
[09:03] <ladydoor> marshall_: i'm sorry
[09:03] <anthony> I have a wide-sreen laptop and so use VLC to play video clips in if I want to keep the correct the aspect ratio.  how can I get DVDs to play in VLC also? the program open -> file -> open disk -> ok -> ..... and nothing hapens.  anyone any ideas?
[09:03] <ladydoor> marshall_: we're not all  as horrible as certain ones in charge are, i promise
[09:03] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol not at all everyone celebrates the 86th anniversary of the 14th ammendment!
[09:03] <yey> hi
[09:03] <ishan> hi
[09:03] <GNu_Joe> feross: I'm soo confused... did I take an upgrade that screwed the pooch?
[09:03] <yey> could you tell me how can I add to my man pages libc manual and stl reference ?
[09:04] <ladydoor> marshall_: lol. well, i just happen to be a bit of a feminist (i.e., a believer in the radical idea that women are people)
[09:04] <Paddy_EIRE> is ubuntu in the Debian unstable/testing branch
[09:04] <marshall_> ladydoor:  what are you saying? 68% of americans dont support the bush admin?
[09:04] <ishan> got the perfect web site ithink
[09:04] <GNu_Joe> feross: what is upnp?
[09:04] <ladydoor> Paddy_EIRE: nope, it's is own os
[09:04] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[09:04] <ladydoor> marshall_: i don't know the statistics. i'm just saying that i'm not a loony yahoo
[09:04] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol i know
[09:04] <ladydoor> marshall_: :-/
[09:04] <longwave> yey: maybe "manpages-dev" has those, i'm not sure though
[09:04] <HnH> Does anyone has a link on a nice howto setting up mail system with virtual users under ubuntu?
[09:05] <ishan> http://www.aijiwll.com/product_3.html
[09:05] <yey> longwave: I'll try
[09:05] <marshall_> ladydoor:  ya women are just like regular people only sexier
[09:05] <ishan> goto this page man
[09:05] <ishan> it will surely help
 will dapper automatically upgrade to edgy when it is officially released
[09:05] <ladydoor> marshall_: ...i...don't think i'm going to comment on that
[09:05] <ishan> it has all the details
[09:05] <longwave> HnH: it doesnt really matter whether it's ubuntu or another linux, your choice of mail server daemon is the important bit there i think
[09:05] <ishan> aremt u there??
[09:05] <exs> hows ubuntu's progress going guys?
[09:05] <marshall_> Paddy_EIRE:  no, you have to sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:05] <feross> GNu_Joe: it's a protocol that routers use to open up ports dynamically. The box or software makes the request to the router and it does it.
[09:05] <HnH> longwave, well any how-to will dare then
[09:05] <marshall_> ladydoor:  lol
can i do that now or should i wait
[09:05] <jpowermacg5> anyone know the easiest way to customize ubuntu live?... or possibly save changes to the live disk back to the CD/DVD
[09:06] <ladydoor> Paddy_EIRE: yes and no...you can choose to dist-upgrade when the time comes, and instructions will be all over the forums and wiki
[09:06] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[09:06] <marshall_> Paddy_EIRE:  uh edgy is still very very young, i would wait a few months
[09:06] <ladydoor> Paddy_EIRE: and unless you want to be a developer, i would not do that right now...it's *very* unstable
October
[09:06] <marshall_> ladydoor:  hey im a feminist too
[09:06] <ishan> can anybody help me to setup my CDMA phone modem??
[09:06] <jpowermacg5> I read edgy gonna boot faster and run apps faster with less RAM
[09:06] <ladydoor> marshall_: lol. i figured you were being ironical
[09:06] <longwave> HnH: i have used these instructions on debian with exim before, they should apply to ubuntu too: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/140
[09:06] <emptiespace> will Blender ever be part of ubuntu any time soon?
[09:07] <ladydoor> marshall_: there just wasn't a good comeback to that
[09:07] <marshall_> ladydoor:  i was at the bring back the night rally and im running for breast cancer next weekend
[09:07] <ladydoor> marshall_: haha
[09:07] <marshall_> lol
[09:07] <ladydoor> marshall_: i believe you! i just generally don't respond to things like that. haha
[09:07] <HnH> longwave, thanks
[09:07] <longwave> HnH: oh wait, you want virtual *users* so the users don't have to be unix users, yes?
[09:07] <ravenous> im trying to set the user image in kde under control center -> password & user account but it says 'your administrator has disallowed changing your image'? how can i change this?
[09:07] <ladydoor> Paddy_EIRE: and if you *do* want to be a developer, you probably don't need me to tell you not to use edgy as your primary os :-)

[09:15] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:15] <Ricker> ishan:  what model is your CDMA?????????????????
[09:15] <ladydoor> ishan:  if nobody's answering, it's because either they don't know or are looking
[09:15] <feugan3333> kaot: Thanks. I've seen that, but it does not give any advice on things like dns forwarding. I'm not sure even what dns server to use.

[09:15] <Ricker> ishan:  checking....
[09:16] <MattRhodes> Ladydoor: okay, have executed sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ubuntu-artwork, logging out now, hope this works, thanks for the help! :)
[09:16] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: good luck!
 where is a sensible location to save themes
[09:16] <kaot> feugan3333: Gotcha.  DNS forwarding should happen automatically using the MASQUERADE target, so you can set your internal computers to your isp's dns servers
[09:16] <ladydoor> Eclypse: are you in a gui or in a fullscreen terminal?
[09:16] <lupine_85> use SNAT not masquerade if you can
[09:16] <ishan> chk this link 4 more info
[09:16] <kaot> feugan3333: alternately you could set up your own dns cache on the linux router
[09:16] <ishan> http://www.aijiwll.com/product_3.html
[09:16] <lupine_85> uses less processing power
[09:16] <Eclypse> ladydoor full screen terminal. black screen, text etc.
[09:16] <longwave> ishan: the only thing i can find is a single post on the ubuntu forums asking if it works with linux
[09:16] <longwave> ishan: so i suspect there are no drivers for it
[09:16] <Eclypse> ladydoor, I'm running XGL/Compiz btw.
[09:16] <kaot> lupine_85: I can't imagine that being a very big deal for a home network unless he's got like a pentium 100
[09:17] <lupine_85> dnsmasq is a good thing(tm) to run as well
[09:17] <ladydoor> Paddy_EIRE: try ~/.themes (it's a hidden file)
[09:17] <lupine_85> kaot: every little helps
[09:17] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[09:17] <longwave> ishan: did you try contacting the manufacturer?
[09:17] <BigMonkey> Running Breezy on a laptop and my home machine, but now I need help on Dapper install on a Dell DHM with an LCD screen. Install display craps out halfway through config of downloaded files.  Really want to stick to Ubuntu.  Any helpful suggestions?
[09:17] <lupine_85> and means he can do all sorts of other stuff (depending on how many IPs he's got to play with)
[09:17] <Herbal> can someone help me with this network problem, i cannot see the shared folders on any of my machines both are running ubuntu and have folders shared samba
[09:17] <ladydoor> Eclypse: that's very odd...ok, type sudo aptitude
[09:17] <Eclypse> ladydoor, k
[09:17] <justin_> BigMonkey: Your sure your BIOS is not set to powerdown the screen after a certain ammount of minutes? ;)
[09:18] <jpowermacg5> anyone know the easiest way to customize ubuntu live?... or possibly save changes to the live disk back to the CD/DVD
[09:18] <Eclypse> ok
[09:18] <Eclypse> its up
[09:18] <Eclypse> now what?
[09:18] <erdalronah1> rob, ping
[09:18] <Ricker> ishan: are you thilina?
[09:18] <lupine_85> jpowermacg5: create a ~ folder on a USB flash disc
[09:18] <ladydoor> Eclypse: actually, press q to quit! i just realized the package is xserver-xorg-core, not xorg-xserver-core!
[09:18] <lupine_85> then mount it every time you start the live cd
[09:18] <kaot> lupine_85: I'm aiming for simplicity and the path of least resistance here ;)
[09:18] <ladydoor> so sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-core
[09:18] <jpowermacg5> i don't got a USB flash drive
[09:18] <Eclypse> lady-door haha
 how come they are so small? and the screenshot only shows the login window....this theme http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=37395
[09:18] <Herbal> can someone help me please i need to backup a file onto the other computer and cannot see its shared folder
[09:19] <Eclypse> ladydoor k
[09:19] <BigMonkey> justin - I did check that.  I'm trying with Breezy now, so if the same thing happens I'll know it's some config in the BIOS that's not obvious. So, this is not some known bug, I take it.
[09:19] <lupine_85> one extra argument won't kill anything, though. Instead of -j MASQUERADE, -j SNAT <ip> ...
[09:19] <HnH> longwave, I've found this
[09:19] <HnH> http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualhostingWithExim
[09:19] <HnH> not using mysql as well, but it's pretty simple :)
[09:19] <ishan> yeah
[09:19] <lupine_85> Does it have to be exim?
[09:19] <ishan> I am thilina
[09:19] <ishan> WHY??
[09:19] <ladydoor> Eclypse: and that's the command to "reinstall" it. you might also, just for the heck of it, do "sudo aptitude update" and then "sudo aptitude upgrade"
[09:19] <kaot> lupine_85: until his external ip changes, yanno?
[09:19] <feugan3333> kaot: Ok, so I configure dhcpd to issue the linux host as a dns server, and even though there is no dns server running iptables will handle it?
[09:19] <Eclypse> ladydoor kk
[09:19] <ladydoor> Eclypse: after which you might try "sudo reboot" to see what happens :-)
[09:19] <Ricker> ishan:  I found your post on the ubuntuforums...
[09:19] <lupine_85> you mean he doesn't have a static IP?
[09:20] <justin_> BigMonkey: I simply ask because I experienced the same problem, and it turned out to be a BIOS issue - when you do installs, it doesnt7 register properly with modern bio's especially ones that are "made for windows etc"
[09:20] <Eclypse> ladydoor, also, it appears I can't use my proxy
[09:20] <ishan> ah then you must understand abt my situation!!!
[09:20] <Eclypse> ladydoor, atleast in this mode :(
[09:20] <ladydoor> Eclypse: i'm sorry, i don't know anything about those :-(
[09:20] <Eclypse> ladydoor rats.
[09:20] <kaot> feugan3333: you're doing dhcp off the router?  you have to configure dhcpd to issue name server addresses with the rest of the host config info
[09:20] <Eclypse> ladydoor I'll try rebooting like this first, I guess...
[09:20] <Herbal> sigh
[09:20] <sanket> hi
[09:20] <Eclypse> ladydoor for all I know, that may have fixed it.
[09:20] <ladydoor> Eclypse: kk. when did this problem first appear?
[09:20] <kaot> feugan3333: you can probably just grab those out of /etc/resolv.conf, they change infrequently
[09:21] <kaot> feugan3333: usually.  :\
[09:21] <ladydoor> Eclypse: i hope it did! getting stuck in CLI sucks
[09:21] <Eclypse> ladydoor after I did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and xserver-xorg-core was in there.
[09:21] <Ricker> ishan: well, yes & no.  I don't have your modem of course but I did read the entire thread in the forums.  I'm beginning to wonder if there are any drivers that would support you cdma on linux
[09:21] <Eclypse> is it a new version of x.org or something??
[09:21] <BigMonkey> justin - there is an option for "OS install", so maybe I need to say "yes" to that, perhaps otherwise it's expecting Windows.  I was avoiding it because I thought "yes" would specify Windows.
[09:21] <ladydoor> Eclypse: this wasn't, say, monday or tuesday was it?
[09:21] <ishan> damn it
[09:21] <ishan> shit
[09:21] <axisys> how do i upgrade this intel vga? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21717
[09:21] <Eclypse> it could have been
[09:21] <Eclypse> I can't remember
[09:21] <kaot> feugan3333: also I'd look into dnsmasq or similar dns caching server.  Then you could just set your clients' dns servers to be the router's ip.
[09:21] <Eclypse> I've been putting this off for a week or so
[09:21] <ladydoor> Eclypse: you may have gotten the (now fixed) broken upgrade. yeah, sounds about right.
[09:22] <Eclypse> lol
[09:22] <Eclypse> ok
[09:22] <ladydoor> Eclypse: and your internet doesn't work at all, you say?
[09:22] <feugan3333> Kaot: Yeah, dnsmasq sound like a good idea.
[09:22] <Eclypse> not now... :(
[09:22] <CorruptKode> I got a question about updateing the kernal
[09:22] <Herbal>  can someone help me with this network problem, i cannot see the shared folders on any of my machines both are running ubuntu and have folders shared samba
[09:22] <Eclypse> I'm on dialup so
[09:22] <feugan3333> Kaot: Thanks for your help
[09:22] <Eclypse> I have my laptop get internet through my desktop
[09:22] <MattRhodes> I executed sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ubuntu-artwork, and got the output:  * Reloading GNOME Display Manager configuration...  * Changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended. However the greeter still give the message "Greeter appears to be crashing, attempting to load another one" and then loads Gnome Desktop Manager, what was the other command you gave me?
[09:22] <ishan> no on e to help me????????????????
[09:22] <Ricker> ishan: don't give up.  It may just be time for it to be supported.  or it could aready be supported, but since it's such an esoteric piece of hardware, may be difficult to find just now.
[09:23] <BigMonkey> justin - How is the dist upgrade from Breezy to Dapper.  If this Breezy install works I could upgrade first thing.
[09:23] <darkdread_> how i instaler arquives tar.bz2
[09:23] <lupine_85> it's not a package, so you don't
[09:23] <Herbal> whatever i giveup since nobody is willing to help me
[09:23] <lupine_85> you untar it (tar -xjvf arquives.tar.bz2)
[09:23] <Eclypse> ladydoor, is there a debian file or somethign I can download and then put on my laptop to fix this stuff?
[09:23] <Dr_Fate> lol
[09:23] <lupine_85> then follow the instructions in the README or INSTALL file
[09:24] <ladydoor> Eclypse: i think so...just a second
[09:24] <Eclypse> ladydoor k.
[09:24] <darkdread_> lupine_85 the pack is compacted with tar.bz2
[09:24] <ishan> all happents to me
[09:24] <Ricker> is there a open-source/FREE backup software solution that I can use to do daily backups to a SCSI tape drive?
[09:24] <lupine_85> yes, so you untar it with tar -xjvf
[09:24] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: I executed sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ubuntu-artwork, and got the output:  * Reloading GNOME Display Manager configuration...  * Changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended. However the greeter still give the message "Greeter appears to be crashing, attempting to load another one" and then loads Gnome Desktop Manager, what was the other command you gave me?
[09:24] <Ricker> for ubuntu/linux of course
[09:24] <lupine_85> (-j calls bunzip2 to deal with it)
[09:25] <longwave> !backup
[09:25] <BigMonkey> justin - without changing anything, the Breezy install finished with the pre-reboot stage.  At this point I can choose to try the Dapper again.  Does anyone have an opinion on the dist upgrade reliability?
[09:25] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi
[09:25] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: press control+alt+backspace to kill and restart x
[09:25] <sh4dox> can someone tell me about a splash screen? what does is do and how do I use one?
[09:25] <ladydoor> Eclypse: go to http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241255D4, and do the bit about downloading the .deb file in tseliot's post
[09:25] <justin_> BigMonkey: I am on Dapper now, way better then Breezy, only thing that I did not like is that it removed GCC by deafult, so if you want to compile source etc - you will have to get the GCC packages from apt-get.
[09:26] <cmiller> How do I find out what my external hardrive device path is? /dev/ ?
[09:26] <Eclypse> ladydoor ok thanks, I'll tell you how it goes.
[09:26] <justin_> BigMonkey: I did not see your previous question I missed it, my text buffer is very small :P
[09:26] <ladydoor> Eclypse: cool
[09:26] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: ahh, I see, I need to completely restart not just log out, cheers (you can tell I'm a n00b 8-))
[09:26] <Qball> http://gnomesupport.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11016
[09:26] <rixxon> how can i set a default widht and height for the terminal
[09:26] <ladydoor> Eclypse: oh, but after that be sure to follow *all* the directions, and do a dist-upgrade afterwards
[09:26] <Qball> please read that
[09:26] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: it won't reboot it, just kill x
[09:27] <Eclypse> ladydoor you sure this is the right thread? it's a community thread named How did you made the forum?...
[09:27] <sanket> cmiller: what type is your hdd usb?
[09:27] <ladydoor> Eclypse: no...it should be this one: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241254
[09:27] <cmiller> sanket: yes
[09:27] <ladydoor> Eclypse: did that one work?
[09:27] <phace> anyone installed ubuntu on hp compaq nx9020
[09:27] <Eclypse> yep
[09:27] <Eclypse> thanks
[09:27] <BigMonkey> justin - I've been sticking with Breezy just because the Scribus typesetting/layout software still has issues with Dapper.  This is my work machine I'm upgrading from Fedora2
[09:27] <ladydoor> Eclypse: shiny. good luck!
[09:28] <sanket> cmiller: it must be /dev/sda1 unless you have another sata/usb connected
[09:28] <tjcarter> hey guys, I need a large X11 mouse cursor.   A little bigger than WhiteLarge even.  Anyone happen to know of one?
[09:28] <tjcarter> 64x64 would be a good size
[09:28] <sanket> cmiller: I mean sda* not sda1
[09:28] <longwave> phace: i am running ubuntu right now on a hp compaq nx9105 but check the wiki for laptop tests
[09:29] <longwave> phace: if it's not in the wiki, boot the live cd and see how that runs
[09:29] <ishan> arent their any generic modems 4 serial modems in ubuntu??
[09:29] <ishan> arent their any generic modems 4 serial modems in ubuntu??
[09:29] <sanket> !splash > sh4dox
[09:29] <BigMonkey> justin - just saw your "missed question" send.  How is the upgrade Breezy -> Dapper?
[09:29] <ishan> arent their any generic modems 4 serial modems in ubuntu??
[09:29] <sanket> !splash
[09:29] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[09:29] <ishan> like in win xp??
[09:30] <cmiller> sanket: yep your right, im trying to format it which should i use ext2 ext3?
[09:30] <sanket> cmiller: ext3
[09:30] <BigMonkey> justin - as in, is the upgrade process within Breezy ok, or problematic?
[09:30] <ladydoor> ishan: that depends if their makers release their drivers. otherwise, people have to go to the trouble of reverse-engineering them
[09:30] <aristos> katowice.irc.pl
[09:30] <aristos> sorry
[09:30] <longwave> ishan: a standard hayes-compatible serial modem should need no drivers, just point the software to /dev/ttyS0 or wherever you plugged it in
[09:30] <ladydoor> aristos: yeah, you should be sorry (jk)
[09:30] <Dr_Willis> a real serial modem is good :)
[09:31] <Ribs> You WILL be sorry >:)
[09:31] <aristos> windows 2003 cannot connect to my samba :(
[09:31] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: eer, its still doing it :(
[09:31] <cmiller> sanket: so just delete the old fat parittion and make a new one that is ext3 the enitre size f the hd?
[09:31] <aristos> i tried some tutorials and I thing my config is good
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> aristos,  you mean your users home samba shares?
[09:31] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: cripes...i'm sorry, i don't know what to tell you.
[09:31] <dannylapt> how do you delete a directory with files in it?
[09:31] <ishan> but ubuntu doesnt recogm\nize my modem
[09:31] <aristos> yep
[09:31] <sanket> cmiller: you can use FAT also, ext3 takes more space, but is more secure than fat
[09:31] <ladydoor> dannylapt: rm -rdf
[09:31] <sh4dox> sanket: "open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image." ... where do i find "gconf-editor"? :$
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> aristos,  you did make the user a samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' ?
[09:31] <ladydoor> dannylapt: careful now :-)
[09:31] <MattRhodes> ladydoor, what was the other command you gave me first
[09:31] <ishan> I use generic drivers 4 it in win xp
[09:31] <cdubya> dannylapt, sudo rm -rf /dir
[09:31] <aristos> yes I did
[09:32] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: i'm not sure...before what?
[09:32] <sanket> cmiller: if you want to use it for data, using FAT is also ok
[09:32] <kkathman> would anyone know why alt-f2 application selector would not work?  Does this need to be initialized?
[09:32] <ladydoor> ishan: ok, here's something you can do, maybe!
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> aristos,  you are farther ahead then 99% of the people in here that ask about samba then. :P
[09:32] <vlt> Paddy_EIRE: [mp3 on ubuntu]  Thank you :)
[09:32] <ladydoor> ishan: do you know where your drivers are in xp?
[09:32] <sanket> sanket: who told you about gconf-editor?
[09:32] <sanket> oop
[09:32] <axisys> is this the latest intel vga driver? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21717
[09:32] <sanket> :P
[09:32] <longwave> ishan: does it just plug into the serial port over RS232? it may not need any drivers in that case
[09:32] <ladydoor> sanket: multiple personalities much?
[09:32] <sh4dox> sanket: rofl
[09:32] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: before sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ubuntu-artwork
[09:32] <sanket> sh4dox: who told you about gconf-editor?
[09:32] <sanket> :P
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> aristos,  restart the smaba service. check its logs.. perhaps enable verbose logging...
[09:32] <sanket> ladydoor: ;)
[09:32] <aristos> till now I made that I can see windows shared directories in linux
[09:33] <ladydoor> ishan: if you know where they are, you can save them to a disc or something and then copy them onto your ubuntu machine
[09:33] <tuna> how can I find out what is the name of my audio driver?
[09:33] <ishan> i knw where my drivers are in win xp
[09:33] <sh4dox> !splash > sanket
[09:33] <sanket> sh4dox: go to System >> Preferences >> Splash Screen
[09:33] <cmiller> sanket: well when using dd trying to copy dvds it caps out at 4 gb, is this a format problem? also can fat check the integrity of the drive like ext3 can?
[09:33] <lupine_85> tuna: lsmod
[09:33] <ishan> will taht copy & paste work??
[09:33] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: oh...that was just sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm, which would *just* reinstall gdm
[09:33] <sanket> sh4dox: I did not get that
[09:33] <sanket> !splash
[09:33] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[09:33] <axisys> tuna: lspci | grep audio
[09:33] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: you've reinstalled both, though
[09:33] <sanket> sh4dox: screw that do what I said
[09:33] <ishan> but copy to where??
[09:33] <tuna> thanks
[09:34] <sanket> sh4dox: ok I got it now :P
[09:34] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: do you think that would make any difference?
[09:34] <IceTox> Does anyone know anything about why I cannot find blackdown (the java package) in synaptic no more? :|
[09:34] <dannylapt> ladydoor: thank you, what does -rdf mean?
[09:34] <sanket> cmiller: ohh yes, FAT allows a max file size of 4 GB :P
[09:34] <ladydoor> ishan: i don't know. i've not had any problems with my internet
[09:34] <sanket> cmiller: use ext3 ;)
[09:34] <sh4dox> sanket: XD ... still ... can't find "splash screen" in the menu you said :p
[09:34] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: no...i'm sorry
[09:34] <cmiller> sanket: thanks for your help :)
[09:34] <aristos> Dr_Willis, the thing is I've restarted samba after every smb.config editing, and I cannot find any entries in logs telling me that some other machine tries to connect
[09:34] <sanket> sh4dox: do you know what a splash screen is?
[09:34] <sanket> cmiller: np
[09:34] <ishan> to where shuid i copy them??
[09:34] <Csabo2> does 6.06 come with fglrx kernel modules?
[09:34] <aristos> sorry for my bad english....
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> aristos,  that sounds liek the firewall is blocking the ports
[09:35] <sh4dox> sanket: a picture you see when you boot? at least I think so XD
[09:35] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: this is odd isnt it
[09:35] <lupine_85> aristos: does netstat -a show connections?
[09:35] <aristos> I've already checked firewall and seems to be ok
[09:35] <ladydoor> dannylapt: np. and it means "Recursive," so it'll delve into any subdirectories, "Directory," so it'll remove the dir itself, and "force"--so it won't ask you about every file. p.s., you might want to add this to your .bashrc
[09:35] <longwave> IceTox: there are proper java packages now, blackdown is not needed any more
[09:35] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: any idea where else I can look for a solution?
[09:35] <sanket> sh4dox: splash is what you see just after you log in
[09:35] <Davey> I have a problem, with my filesystem choice. I'm trying to back up 2 WinXP systems and a Mac to my external drive on my networked Ubuntu box. I formatted the drive as fat32 so I could do a one-time local copy on each machine then put it on the box and keep it up to date with rsync over smb for the WInXP boxes and rsync over SSH for my mac. Well, some mac filenames just can't be written to FAT32 (i.e. those with a : in them). What is a good filesystem that
[09:35] <ladydoor> dannylapt: alias rm='rm -i'
[09:35] <IceTox> longwave, where? I've used blackdown for ages now, and it has always worked for me. Now, I'm lost here with nothing?
[09:36] <longwave> !java
[09:36] <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
[09:36] <ladydoor> dannylapt: which will make it prompt you any time you use rm, unless you use -f
[09:36] <sh4dox> sanket: but i can't change it o_O
[09:36] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: you might try posting on http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[09:36] <dannylapt> ladydoor: ohh ok, thank you very much, I might do that.
[09:36] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: which is an excellent website for getting ubuntu help
[09:36] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: good luck!
[09:36] <mfcker> Hi. What does it take to enable box not connected to the internet to use apt-get repositories? Are there any separate repos cds?
[09:36] <aristos> is there any less verbose netstat parameter/
[09:36] <ladydoor> dannylapt: it'll make things *much* safer any time you use a terminal
[09:36] <sanket> sh4dox: you will have to download splash screens
[09:36] <Csabo2> mfcker, apt can be run off a cdrom yes
[09:37] <sanket> sh4dox: install the gnome-art package using Synaptic
[09:37] <Csabo2> mfcker, just edit your repos.d , comment out the web repos and uncomment the cdrom device
[09:37] <mfcker> Csabo2: Where are these cds to download?
[09:37] <sh4dox> sanket: ok ... sec
[09:37] <feross> Davey: you can find some drivers out there that will enable XP to see other filesystems. EXT2 could be your best bet.
[09:37] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: oh, and if you do post there, do mention you already did that dpkg-reconfigure command :-)
[09:37] <sanket> sh4dox: it allows you to download lotsa stuff like Splashes, themes, etc...
[09:37] <Csabo2> mfcker,  repositories are noting special, they are just the .deb files
[09:37] <longwave> Davey: ext2/3 might be a good choice, it is readable on windows with a filesystem driver and probably on mac os somehow, or maybe just tar up the files before copying them to the drive?
[09:37] <cmiller> sanket: so just delete the old fat parittion and make a new one that is ext3 the enitre size of the hd?
[09:37] <MattRhodes> ladydoor: thanks very much for the help, will try the forum, take care
[09:37] <Flannel> mfcker: the alternate CD can be used as a repository, although you might want to get the DVD, if you've got the media and bandwidth - more packages
[09:37] <sh4dox> sanket: ow ... i use gnome-look.org for those things XD
[09:38] <ladydoor> MattRhodes: good luck!
[09:38] <Csabo2> mfcker,  you're just going to uncomment the cdrom device in the repos list
[09:38] <MattRhodes> cheers :)
[09:38] <sanky> cmiller: yes, if you want to
[09:38] <mfcker> Csabo2: I do know what's repositories. I'd like to get offline version
[09:38] <aristos> Windows Total Commander has plugins and it can see reiserfs also
[09:38] <Csabo2> theres no such thing.
[09:38] <Diabolic> What is the best power management tool for KDE?
[09:38] <cmiller> sanket: do i need to make a new partition?
[09:38] <Csabo2> you could copy the entire tree to a local machine and then setup a repo within your network
[09:38] <sanky> sh4dox: using gnome-art is better, you get what you want, give it a try
[09:38] <ubuntu> hallo liebe leute
[09:38] <cmiller> sanket: if im formating?
[09:38] <sanky> cmiller: I don't get you
[09:38] <Davey> feross, longwave: OK, thanks, can gparted or qparted handle conversion to that? without data loss?

[09:38] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[09:38] <Csabo2> only thing you can do is uncomment the cdrom
[09:38] <Csabo2> and then use apt as normal
[09:39] <IceTox> longwave, I don't find that Sun Java package in synaptic, nor cache searching apt. :|
[09:39] <Csabo2> if the package isnt on the disc, you have to get it from the web
[09:39] <Csabo2> no way around it
[09:39] <mfcker> Csabo2: In debian there are separate cds with repository. I thought that ubuntu has also such thing.  So I have to use debian instead.
[09:39] <Csabo2> mfcker,  go for it
[09:39] <cmiller> sanket: If im formating the whole drive do i need to make a single parittion?
[09:39] <sanky> IceTox: do you have Universe/multiverse repos enabled?
[09:39] <ladydoor> mfcker: you could always *make* a cd with debs on it
[09:39] <feross> Davey: not sure. I'd say copy everything to your Ubuntu box, partition and format then copy back
[09:39] <Csabo2> mfcker, debian doesnt have the repos avail on disc, they just have the sources discs and extras
[09:39] <IceTox> sanky, I don't even know what that is :|
[09:39] <sanky> cmiller: you can make one or many, depending on your requirement
[09:39] <longwave> IceTox: you need to enable the multiverse repository
[09:39] <longwave> !multiverse
[09:39] <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
[09:40] <Csabo2> ubuntu has most of that minus sources on the install cd
[09:40] <HellDragon> hi
[09:40] <mfcker> Csabo2: 8 cd's to be exact
[09:40] <Davey> feross: except its > 100GB and I don't have that much free space ;)
[09:40] <sanky> IceTox: what, java?
[09:40] <Csabo2> mfcker,  if you say so
[09:40] <sanky> IceTox: or repos?
[09:40] <cmiller> sanket: gotcha ok thanks
[09:40] <feross> Davey: I was afraid you were going to say that :)
[09:40] <HellDragon> anyone know why it says that my PSP is read only ? i properly mounted it im supposed to be able to put files on it
[09:40] <sanky> cmiller: ok np
[09:40] <IceTox> sanky, repos :) I know what java is, luckily.. lol
[09:40] <GNu_Joe> Where can I find a howto on upnp but for ubuntu?
[09:40] <Davey> feross: thats the problem with my external drive, I can't backup my backup :)
[09:40] <marie_> lo all. I am trying to install flash for firefox but it seems like the script used to download flash in ubuntus packages is broken because the URL it is trying to get the "install_flash_player.tar.gz"  from is also broken.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
[09:40] <sh4dox> sanky: but i just wanted to change it =P I have some downloaded now I want to use it =D
[09:41] <ladydoor> HellDragon: is it a usb?
[09:41] <HellDragon> ladydoor: yes
[09:41] <sanket> IceTox: just go to java.com and download Java for Linux, follow their docs
[09:41] <aristos> HellDragon, tried as root?
[09:41] <HellDragon> yeah
[09:41] <HellDragon> it still doesnt work
[09:41] <Flannel> !tell marie_ about flash
[09:41] <exs> Any links to fix my sound?.. it's a AC97 compatiable soundcard (VIA)
[09:41] <feross> Davey: hmm, compress. I guess it's going to be a tedious process but it might work, unless all you have is mp3's and jpgs haha
[09:41] <sanket> sh4dox: then go to Splash Screen and hit install
[09:41] <ladydoor> HellDragon: is there a line for it in your /etc/fstab?
[09:41] <HellDragon> yeah
[09:41] <Davey> feross: mostly MP3s ;)
[09:41] <aristos> exs what soundcard?
[09:42] <ladydoor> HellDragon: what's it say (sorry)?
[09:42] <longwave> marie_: sometimes you have to run the flash update script several times before it will work
[09:42] <HellDragon> ladydoor: dev/sda1       /mnt/PSP        vfat  noauto,noatime,users,shortname=win95,check=s  0 0
[09:42] <Davey> feross: I have like 120GB of stuff on there, and maybe 7GB free disk space ;)
[09:42] <sh4dox> sanket: but I have no menu of submenu thing called "splash screen" o_O
[09:42] <longwave> marie_: at least, i had to when i installed flash a few weeks back
[09:42] <Davey> on my other drivers
[09:42] <sanket> sh4dox: what distro?
[09:42] <IceTox> nah, thatwebsite longwave served me worked fine :) Thanks anyway sanket.
[09:42] <ladydoor> HellDragon: add "rw," (without quotes) before noauto
[09:42] <sh4dox> sanket: ubuntu dapper drake
[09:42] <exs> aristos:  i forgot the model name, what is the command i use in terminal to tell me?
[09:42] <ladydoor> HellDragon: and then see what happens
[09:42] <aristos> lspci
[09:42] <sanket> IceTox: ok
[09:42] <ladydoor> HellDragon: you *may* have to reboot
[09:42] <HellDragon> :(
[09:42] <ladydoor> HellDragon: but maybe not!
[09:43] <sanket> sh4dox: it has to be there in System >> Preferences
[09:43] <longwave> no reboots needed for changes to /etc/fstab
[09:43] <ladydoor> longwave: sweet!
[09:43] <longwave> just umount then remount the device
[09:43] <ladydoor> HellDragon: longwave sayd no reboot is necessary
[09:43] <Ricker> !your stupid anus
[09:43] <ompaul> HellDragon, USB is a dog thre are times when if it does not work trying a different slot or a reboot is the only way forward
[09:43] <aristos> or mount -a
[09:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about your stupid anus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:43] <feross> Davey: it's a risk if you try to convert in my opinion
[09:43] <abhinay>  i successfully installed AIGLX, but the only thing is no borders for window , check it out http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/7503/screenshotdc7.png ???
[09:43] <ladydoor> HellDragon: just umount and then remount it
[09:43] <longwave> pretty much the only time you need to reboot in linux is to change the kernel ;)
[09:43] <marie_> Flannel, thats great and all. But that howto tells me to install flashplugin-nonfree which as I just stated is broken due to the fact that it downloads from adobe's website the flash plugin in .tar.gz format.  This file is no lnoger on adobes site.
[09:43] <Samuli^> you almost never have to reboo.
[09:43] <Samuli^> t
[09:43] <Davey> feross: well, if I lose /some/ files, or if some get corrupted, rsync will fix those files
[09:43] <marie_> longwave, the file no longer exists on adobes site unfortunately
[09:43] <HellDragon> trying
[09:43] <Flannel> marie_: scroll down further, it tells you how to manually install
[09:44] <Samuli^> just restart X, gdm, change runlevels etc.
[09:44] <ladydoor> marie_: are you using automatix/
[09:44] <ladydoor> ?
[09:44] <marie_> Flannel, you cant manually install it if the file doesnt exist
[09:44] <sh4dox> sanket: nope it isn't in there o_O
[09:44] <Don_jr> I'm in recovery mode on ubuntu, I have the geforce mx4000 pci 128mb video card and I can't configure X to run with it.
[09:44] <marie_> Flannel, have a look http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz
[09:44] <anon8318> how do i save movie files to my hard drive with mozilla-mplayer?
[09:44] <Csabo2> what version of x.org comes with 6.06?
[09:45] <wikijeff> Where can I find ubuntu screensavers?
[09:45] <sanket> sh4dox: right click on your main menu bar and select edit menus
[09:45] <marie_> its not a matter of doing it manually or not.  the file used by ubuntu (and other distros) simply no longer exists
[09:45] <anon8318> what do i have to configure?
[09:45] <Samuli^> Don_jr, have you tried to tinker with xorg.conf?
[09:45] <avu> csabo2: 7.0
[09:45] <longwave> Csabo2: 7.0
[09:45] <jackn> Helldragon why an fstab entry if it's usb? Shold self-mount.
[09:45] <marie_> ladydoor, never heard of it
[09:45] <HellDragon> i unmounted and remounted and it doesnt work
[09:45] <Csabo2> thanks!, is there a fglrx module availible?
[09:45] <ompaul> wikijeff, system preferences screensavers
[09:45] <Don_jr> Smuli^ nope, woulnd't know how
[09:45] <Csabo2> <-- 9800 pro :(
[09:45] <feross> Davey: well let me get this straight.. you said "backup" which implies the files are already somewhere else. If this external drive is the only place where you have the backups it's not a backup, it's a storage drive... :)
[09:45] <HellDragon> Jackn, it selfs mount but cant write
[09:45] <__LinoH__> lol
[09:45] <longwave> !ati > Csabo2
[09:45] <kaot> whoa.
[09:45] <Csabo2> Don_jr, i can help you i think
[09:45] <ladydoor> marie_: it works like a charm! add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list (after backing it up)
[09:45] <wikijeff> ompaul, i mean more screensavers aside from those. I'm looking for one that just displays the time.
[09:46] <sh4dox> sanket: ok did so .. what yet? alacarte opened
[09:46] <ladydoor> HellDragon: did you add that "rw" to it?
[09:46] <IceTox> How do I run a .bin file?
[09:46] <Davey> feross: right, its a backup, but transferring 120GB over wifi is no fun :)
[09:46] <Csabo2> Don_jr, edit the xorg.conf file and change the device from w/e is listed to "vesa" and start x :) itll work
[09:46] <ladydoor> HellDragon: also, do this: cat /etc/group|grep user
[09:46] <avu> icetox: chmod +x file.bin; ./file.bin
[09:46] <sanket> sh4dox: go to System >> Preferences, do you see Splash Screen in it?
[09:46] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  it just wont be pretty
[09:46] <|thunder> IceTox: bin is like zip. have to decompress or mount it
[09:46] <jackn> Heldragon, I'm surprised that it self mounts, as an fstab entry should stop it from sefl-mounting.
[09:46] <ladydoor> HellDragon: does your username show up?
[09:46] <Don_jr> Csabo2 that would be great.  I've ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and tried it.
[09:46] <sh4dox> sanket: nope no splash screen in it
[09:46] <IceTox> ahaller, ok :)
[09:46] <Dr_Willis> a .bin is NOT like a .zip
[09:46] <marie_> ladydoor, and that following line was??
[09:46] <HellDragon> ladydoor: yes
[09:46] <ladydoor> jackn: no, fstab can make it either mount or self-mount
[09:46] <nox-Hand> Hey
[09:46] <sanket> sh4dox: strange
[09:46] <Don_jr> Csabo2 okay, is it possible to get it to read the card properly?
[09:46] <Samuli^> Don_jr, well, the easiest way to try something out is to install drivers from the repositories. I think xorg-driver-nv or xorg-driver-nvidia and then change driver accordingly in xorg.conf
[09:46] <Csabo2> longwave, is that a yes or a no to compatibile drivers
[09:46] <nox-Hand> Does anyone know any system optimizing guides for Ubuntu?
[09:47] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  sure, but first lets get x up and running :)
[09:47] <Phoul> Hello im having a problem
[09:47] <Phoul> (phoul@ubuntu)-(02:45 PMSat Aug 26)-(~)
[09:47] <Flannel> ladydoor, marie_, automatix is a good way to break your system. ladydoor, please don't recommend it here.
[09:47] <Phoul> $ sudo synaptic
[09:47] <Phoul> synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:47] <|thunder> Dr_Willis: more like a tar for a newb.
[09:47] <anon8318> can someone tell me how you can save streaming media files to your hard drive with mozilla-mplayer?
[09:47] <jackn> Heldragon, anyway, what happens if you remove it from fstab?
[09:47] <ladydoor> marie_: deb http://www.beerorkid.com/automatix/apt dapper main
[09:47] <HellDragon> jackn: nothing
[09:47] <sh4dox> sanket: you need a printscreen? =P
[09:47] <ladydoor> Flannel: for serious? i've never had a problem with it
[09:47] <Csabo2> Don_jr, I would honestly get into x w/ vesa at the very least, you won't have hardware acceleration but itll work
[09:47] <longwave> Csabo2: yes, fglrx should work, you should even be able to get xgl+compiz running on that card
[09:47] <jackn> Ladydoor in my opinion fstab stops mounting.
[09:47] <ladydoor> Flannel: perhaps you should warn marie_
[09:47] <Don_jr> Csabo2 how do I start X from comand prompt?
[09:47] <Csabo2> longwave,  no joke?
[09:47] <Csabo2> Don_jr, type "startx"
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> |thunder,  it could be about anything - since its a self-installing executable.
[09:47] <anon8318> or how you can save it to your hard drive with another media plugin
[09:47] <Flannel> marie_: youre right, they seem to have a broken website.  Although I can't tell, since they do autodetect stuff for the download (which iswhy it works for me currently)
[09:47] <feross> Davey: well you don't have to worry about converting too much then. I don't know if qparted will do it but if anything get's messed up you still have the files. Worst case scenario you leave the machines running one night an put two pillows over your head not to hear the fans and the drives
[09:47] <sanket> sh4dox: run this command ... gnome-splashscreen-manager
[09:47] <longwave> Csabo2: 9800 pro isn't that old! :)
[09:47] <ladydoor> jackn: fair enough. i just know that it works on my system if you set it up right
[09:47] <jackn> helldragon you mean no mounting if you remove from fstab?
[09:47] <marie_> Flannel, I wasnt planning on adding it.  But the source URL I can at least browse the packages and see if its flash package works
[09:47] <anon8318> i have a movie that i want to download off a site
[09:47] <HellDragon> jackn: it moutns but its still read only
[09:47] <Csabo2> longwave,  no sir its not but its never been supported too well by X :)
[09:48] <jackn> helldragon ok
[09:48] <Csabo2> Don_jr, if you need help changing the device to vesa let me know
[09:48] <|thunder> Dr_Willis: i didnt know we were talking about a binary file. sounded like a .bin iso.
[09:48] <sh4dox> sanket: what's the icone look like for  "splash screen" in the menu?
[09:48] <avu> phoul: do a 'sudo apt-get install libvte4'
[09:48] <Don_jr> Csabo2 what is the path to xorg.conf?
[09:48] <liran_> is it possible to add another session instance to gdm so that it starts a different .Xsession file?
[09:48] <Csabo2> longwave,  will you be here and availible in a few hours
[09:48] <jackn> helldragon try this, (little hope)
[09:48] <alexi5> hello
[09:48] <longwave> no, but all recent radeon cards mostly work with X, driver support has gotten a bit better recently
[09:48] <Phoul> avu, its already newist
[09:48] <Csabo2> Don_jr, I think its /etc/X11/xorg.conf :)
[09:48] <jackn> Sys>admin>discs
[09:48] <sanket> sh4dox: did that command run?
[09:48] <Flannel> marie_: believe it just uses the same URL, which makes sense.  It's adobe's website, one would imagine that the file would be reliable.
[09:48] <Nitrobass24> linux wont recognize my software raid0
[09:48] <foo25> Can anyone help me set up a wireless PCMCIA card??
[09:48] <Dr_Willis> |thunder,  heh :P\
[09:48] <IceTox> indeed, your version was best sanket. :) I went to download it manually and it worked just fine :)
[09:48] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  if not, do this "updatedb" then once its done do "locate xorg.conf"
[09:48] <longwave> i dont know, maybe, but someone will probably help, and there is an entire channel for xgl help
[09:48] <sh4dox> sanket: give the following output "bash: gnome-splashscreen-manager: command not found
[09:48] <sh4dox> "
[09:49] <Csabo2> longwave,  thanks man :)
[09:49] <sanket> IceTox: told ya :P
[09:49] <skirk> hi all
[09:49] <HellDragon> trying
[09:49] <jackn> helldragon you should click your disc icon and then partitions.
[09:49] <avu> phoul: hu. Do you have some strange LD_LIBRARY_PATH set or something?
[09:49] <Don_jr> Csabo2 and find what it's calling the video driver and change it to vesa?
[09:49] <IceTox> sanket, flash support I get at macromedia.com?
[09:49] <Phoul> avu, not that im aware of
[09:49] <jackn> helldragon then try to 'enable' at the bottom. Let me know.
[09:49] <sanket> sh4dox: sudo apt-get install gnome-splashscreen-manager
[09:49] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  yeah look for "device" itll probobly list your real card, or a similar device, change the "device" to "vesa"
[09:49] <sh4dox> sanket: ok .. sec
[09:49] <sanket> IceTox: yes :)
[09:49] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  the hierarchy is hard to explain, you will see it.  just under Device change the device to vesa
[09:49] <Brushwell> Hrm, I have a little problem.
[09:49] <avu> phoul: do a 'printenv | grep LD'
[09:49] <marie_> Flannel, I figured as much.  does anyone have this file on thier system  "install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz"  The flashplayer-nonfree install script uses wget to grab it so it may still exist on peoples systems.
[09:50] <Don_jr> Csabo2 okay be back in a sec if it works or not.  How do I start X from console after I've changed it?
[09:50] <cvasilak> hi there, just installed the latest driver from nvidia. the problem is when i restart i get in X version mismatch in kernel module the kernel module has the old driver but the X driver uses the new. I do modprobe -r nvidia and modprobe nvidia and it just works. where the hell is the old driver kernel? in /lib/modules/2.blbla in the nvidia.ko has the latest timestamp, please please help
[09:50] <|thunder> liran_: i use this tutorial to add a new compiz session to gnome. it might help. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133427
[09:50] <Brushwell> on Ubuntu 6.06, Adept will no longer open.
[09:50] <jackn> Helldargon it's not enough to remove from fstab. you must remount by saying 'mount'.
[09:50] <Csabo2> Don_jr, type "startx"
[09:50] <feross> GNu_Joe: try 'sudo apt-get install libupnp0'
[09:50] <Don_jr> Csabo2 kk
[09:50] <Csabo2> Don_jr,  if that doesnt work, type "gdm"
[09:50] <Flannel> marie_: this link works for me: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz
[09:50] <Brushwell> It prompts for a password and nothing else.
[09:50] <Csabo2> good luck! :)
[09:50] <alexi5> why does samba on ubuntu dapper operates slugglishly compared to breezy
[09:50] <marie_> Flannel, not here it doesnt
[09:50] <alexi5> i get slow transfer speeds compared to breezy
[09:50] <marie_> The requested URL /get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz was not found on this server.
[09:50] <jackn> Helldragon the new fstab config must be taken into account by the system.
[09:50] <liran_> |thunder: thanks, exactly what i need.
[09:50] <Samuli^> Csabo2, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

[09:51] <|thunder> liran_: np
[09:51] <avu> marie_: just install flashplugin-nonfree from multiverse
[09:51] <sanket> sh4dox: good, it should appear then where I said
[09:51] <marie_> Flannel, care to download it for me and post it somewhere :P
[09:51] <Csabo2> Samuli^,  thanks :) startx should work though should it not? i've not really used ubunut
[09:51] <anon8318> HAHAHA NIGGA GOT PAID
[09:51] <avu> marie_: no need to do it manually
[09:51] <shawnr_> Question: "I have a self-made database txt file seperated by line returns and tabs. Is there a database program that can import text database files?
[09:51] <Phoul> can someone tell me how to fix this problem *please*
[09:51] <Samuli^> Csabo2, it should.
[09:51] <Phoul> synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:51] <Csabo2> Samuli^, :)
[09:51] <HellDragon> jackn: doesnt work
[09:51] <ladydoor> Csabo2: are you wanting to use startx instead of gdm?
[09:51] <longwave> shawnr_: mysql can import from text files
[09:51] <lupine_85> shawnr: treat it as a csv?
[09:51] <jackn> ladydoor what's your config? fstab AND it self mounts?
[09:51] <sh4dox> sanket: yes sir XD it appeared =D
[09:51] <longwave> shawnr_: in fact i expect most database engines can read csv/tsv to some extent
[09:51] <ladydoor> jackn: yup
[09:51] <jackn> heldrag sorry to hear
[09:51] <lupine_85> assuming it's a sane format, you should be ok
[09:51] <sanket> sh4dox: what's XD?
[09:52] <delmar> Where is ubuntu hiding the config that is forcing my damn package manager to use a Proxy all the time? I'm not at home (where my proxy is) and can't install any packages... it keeps going for the proxy .. i have checked /etc/apt/apt.conf.d (where it is supposed to be)  and also the prefs for synaptic, but can find nothing.. GRRR where is the config causing this !
[09:52] <IceTox> sanket, I like your way doing things. You jsut simply go to the source at once instead of doing 30 try-outs on other sh*t :)
[09:52] <cvasilak> hi there, just installed the latest driver from nvidia. the problem is when i restart i get in X version mismatch in kernel module the kernel module has the old driver but the X driver uses the new. I do modprobe -r nvidia and modprobe nvidia and it just works. where the hell is the old driver kernel? in /lib/modules/2.blbla in the nvidia.ko has the latest timestamp, please please help
[09:52] <jackn> heldrag after removal from fstab must 'mount' to allow system to take it into account.
[09:52] <lupine_85> in /lib/modules/old-kernel-ver/somewhere
[09:52] <ladydoor> jackn: fstab is, after all, designed to mount things...here's my usb line
[09:52] <ompaul> wikijeff, I don't use any others sorry - had a poke around cant find anything on it
[09:52] <sh4dox> sanket: an irc emotion which closes his eyes and has a big smile =D
[09:52] <ladydoor> jackn: /dev/sda1               /media/thumb     auto    rw,user,noauto  0         0
[09:52] <Phoul> Can someone help me out?
[09:52] <sanket> delmar: in Synaptic, Preferences >> Network
[09:52] <wikijeff> ompaul: thanks anyway
[09:53] <sanket> sh4dox: lol thanks ;)
[09:53] <delmar> sanket, as I said... done that
[09:53] <longwave> delmar: do you have an HTTP_PROXY or similar environment variable set? try "set | grep PROXY"
[09:53] <Phoul> Hello?
[09:53] <jackn> heldrag  please describe.  what happened with enable?
[09:53] <ladydoor> jackn: and then add yourself to the group users
[09:53] <Csabo2> Phoul,  just ask, dont ask to ask :)
[09:53] <sh4dox> sanket: those "splash screens" are they images or ... ? =P
[09:53] <Phoul> I did ask
[09:53] <delmar> longwave, checkin
[09:53] <ompaul> gnomefreak, dapper if one wanted to put in a screen saver with a clock how would one manage it?
[09:53] <sanket> delmar: do you have a proxy or not?
[09:53] <foo25> Can anyone help me set up a wireless PCMCIA card??
[09:53] <Phoul> No one seems to even answer
[09:53] <don_jr> Csabo2 the driver is set to vesa
[09:53] <Phoul> synaptic: error while loading shared libraries: libvte.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:53] <sanket> sh4dox: images
[09:53] <Phoul> what do i do
[09:53] <Csabo2> don_jr,  does it work?
[09:53] <Brushwell> Phoul: nobody ever answers, it's terrible >_<
[09:53] <nox-Hand> Hey
[09:53] <avu> marie_: the link works just fine here, I can publish the file on my server for you if you want
[09:53] <Csabo2> Phoul, is that file on your drive?
[09:53] <wikijeff> Are ubuntu screensavers just programs?
[09:53] <don_jr> Csabo2 nope, it's set to vesa now and when I restarted last time it locked up on me
[09:53] <sh4dox> sanket: ok then let's get this thing to work XD
[09:53] <delmar> longwave, there we go. damn. how did that sneak in there
[09:53] <gnomefreak> ompaul: not sure. sorry
[09:54] <jackn> ladydoor so it's removable and it self mounts? how do you know you need it? Did you try without fstab? it should self mount with pmount.
[09:54] <ompaul> gnomefreak, np
[09:54] <sanket> sh4dox: what's XD ?
[09:54] <ladydoor> Phoul: try sudo apt-get update, the sudo apt-get upgrade, and after that see if you can load synaptic
[09:54] <don_jr> Csabo2 xserver can't start and takes me to a terminal log in
[09:54] <Csabo2> don_jr, not to sound dumb, but can you please open the PC and make sure the card is plugged in snuggly?

[09:54] <marie_> Flannel, awesome.  thank you much
[09:54] <ladydoor> jackn: before i figured all this out, i had to be root to write to it
[09:54] <Csabo2> don_jr,  because any card should work with vesa, its not card specific
[09:54] <lufis> Is there a video editor in the repos that will edit video files? Kino wants me to import raw video from a camera
[09:54] <nox-Hand> My webcam is not installed automaticly in Ubuntu, as it isnt configured in the kernel - how can I add this?
[09:54] <gast> and girls was geht so
[09:54] <don_jr> Csabo2 this is a dual boot computer and it works fine on XP 5 mins after I installed
[09:54] <ladydoor> jackn: so i wanted to find a way to get it to self-mount in a way that i could write to it without being root
[09:54] <Phoul> $ whereis libvte.so.4
[09:54] <Phoul> libvte.so: /usr/lib/libvte.so.9
[09:54] <Csabo2> don_jr, what is the error mesage from x?
[09:54] <jackn> ladydoor so it selfmounted but didnt allow writing?
[09:55] <Phoul> ladydoor, your idea didnt work
[09:55] <delmar> longwave, so there must be some system setting somewhere causing that env variable to be set... seems to be set for all users.
[09:55] <Csabo2> Phoul,  it would help if you had the right file :)
[09:55] <don_jr> Csabo2 I'll ahve to restart and write it down for ya, I'll be back
[09:55] <Phoul> Csabo2, well what do i do then
[09:55] <ladydoor> jackn: it allowed writing, but only as root, which is no good ever
[09:55] <ladydoor> Phoul: sorry
[09:55] <m-o-r-i-z> i have bought a digicam it popups the gthumb importer, but i want my camera just as external hd , how can i do this, or where is the folder located?
[09:55] <foo25> Seriously does anyone listen here...?
[09:55] <Csabo2> Phoul,  i'm not 100% sure mate, have you tried just using apt?
[09:55] <ompaul> wikijeff, did the obvious going to play in that space now you can too: * ompaul wonders if anyone in this camp has sat down and thought about the huge impact Ubuntu has had on the FLOSS world
[09:55] <Flannel> ladydoor: change your umask in fstab
 it is hitting me hard the last 24 hours or so, this evening I was with my good mate jayt, the chap is a brickie who explained to his seven year old daughter rather well what sudo was
 she btw loves gcompris but thinks the music sounds like an ice cream van
[09:55] <sanket> foo25:  ?
[09:55] <jackn> lady door do you belong to plugdev?
[09:55] <delmar> longwave, found it. Network Proxy etc.
[09:55] <ladydoor> Flannel: eh? what for?
[09:55] <Phoul> Csabo2, it says its installed
[09:55] <Phoul> libvte is already installed
[09:55] <Csabo2> Phoul, remove it and reinstall the package, thats my last idea :-\ its worked for me before
[09:55] <Flannel> ladydoor: to... be able to read/write as non root to a mounted partition
[09:55] <ompaul> wikijeff, sudo apt-cache search screensaver that is what you should have seen
[09:55] <PWill> m-o-r-i-z, go to preferneces, and then to removeable drives and media
[09:55] <jackn> You must, for self-mounting to work w/o fstab
[09:56] <Phoul> Csabo2, that uninstalls other things too
[09:56] <ladydoor> Flannel: oh! i already fixed the problem. but thank you!
[09:56] <Phoul> Like ubuntu-desktop
[09:56] <Csabo2> Phoul,  yes it will
[09:56] <ladydoor> Flannel: :-)
[09:56] <wikijeff> ompaul: heh, ok thanks
[09:56] <sh4dox> sanket: XD is like =D only is it closing his eyes from laughing =P
[09:56] <Phoul> Csabo2, well what do i do without ubuntu-desktop and gnome-terminal and stuff lol
[09:56] <PWill> m-o-r-i-z, then click on cameras, and delete the line that says "gnome-volume-manager-gthumb %h"
[09:56] <sanket> sh4dox: lol ok
[09:56] <ladydoor> Flannel: i was just describing why i use fstab to mount removable things and don't run gnome-volume-manager
[09:56] <lufis> Is there a video editor in the repos that will edit video files? Kino wants me to import raw video from a camera
[09:57] <Csabo2> Phoul,  lol I dunno man, i'm sorry, i'm not that good :(

I do modprobe -r nvidia and modprobe nvidia and it just works. where the hell is the old driver kernel? in /lib/modules/2.blbla in the nvidia.ko has the latest timestamp, please please help
[09:57] <Csabo2> Phoul,  I say you kick it
[09:57] <sh4dox> sanket: does splash supports .png? and what size does it has to be? =P
[09:57] <Phoul> Csabo2, kick what?
[09:57] <Phoul> lol
[09:57] <Csabo2> Phoul,  your PC
[09:57] <Phoul> lmao
[09:57] <Phoul> Nah
[09:57] <Phoul> I need it to much
[09:57] <sanket> sh4dox: dunno chk urself, I got you started :P
[09:57] <Phoul> Which is why this is annoying me
[09:57] <Csabo2> lol i gotcha
[09:57] <sanket> sh4dox: use gnome-art it rox
[09:57] <nox-Hand> Any idea?
[09:57] <ladydoor> cvasilak: i believe there are some threads on the Forum describing the best method for installing the new drivers
[09:57] <Samuli^> Some bioses have problems with vesa.
[09:57] <IceTox> sanket, you ahve been so faithful helping me tonight.. *grins* Do you know of like the easiest way of getting this screen resolution up? it's like even lower than I'm able to have in windows :|

[09:58] <Csabo2> Phoul, i had a .so file that if i removed took away everything, and it didnt work
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> !java
[09:58] <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
[09:58] <sanket> sh4dox: ok
[09:58] <Csabo2> Phoul,  so i used another distro and xp until a new version came out, then i installed it and problem was solved
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> read that URL  vapermonkey00  its very detailed and exacting.
[09:58] <marshall_> ladydoor:  do you use compiz?
[09:58] <ladydoor> vapermonkey00: /path/to/file
[09:58] <ladydoor> marshall_: nope...no 3d for me

[10:01] <shaantanu> k
[10:01] <kishore> how to upgrade ubuntu breezy to ubuntu dapper ?
[10:01] <sanket> Csabo2: then where?
[10:01] <Bison> And now I can't get G working
[10:01] <ladydoor> nox-Hand: sorry, with what?
[10:01] <m-o-r-i-z> PWill, but now the camera will not mounting ..? i dont see a folder in /media...?
[10:01] <sh4dox> sanket: XD XD it worked XD (but my screen wasn't cool ... the brown background-color s*cks)
[10:01] <Csabo2> Jamminpotato, i've used uTorrent in wine before, worked fine
[10:01] <Eclypse> csabo, it doesn't appear to be mounting, at all.
[10:01] <longwave> Phoul: do you have libvte4 and libvte-common installed?
[10:01] <sanket> !upgrade
[10:01] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[10:01] <Flannel> Phoul: apt-get has a --reinstall argument
[10:01] <Csabo2> Eclypse, it may not automount,but you can mount it :)
[10:01] <sanket> sh4dox: you can change it in Login Window
[10:01] <Jamminpotato> Csabo2 thanks, uTorrent ftw
[10:01] <PWill> m-o-r-i-z, doesn't it mount on the desktop?
[10:01] <Csabo2> Jamminpotato,  yep :)
[10:02] <Eclypse> csabo2, how can i do that?
[10:02] <m-o-r-i-z> PWill, no
[10:02] <klm-> I'm on hoary now, what do you people think, is this a good way to upgrade for a novice like me? link: http://www.johnnysthoughts.com/2006/08/21/upgrading-ubuntu-from-hoary-to-dapper/
[10:02] <sh4dox> sanket: windows s*cks also =P
[10:02] <Phoul> Reinstallation of libvte4 is not possible, since it cannot be downloaded.
[10:02] <Flannel> klm-: Read the breezy upgrade link ;)
[10:02] <sanket> Eclypse: try "sudo mount /dev/sda /media/somefile"
[10:02] <Csabo2> Eclypse, what do you mean? just mount the device, if it was formatted on aPC its fat
[10:02] <PWill> m-o-r-i-z, hm...
[10:02] <sh4dox> sanket: ow my bad =D mis understand you :$
[10:02] <sanket> sh4dox: we ALL know :P
[10:02] <ladydoor> kishore: google "ubuntu wiki upgrade breezy dapper"
[10:02] <m-o-r-i-z> PWill, with other cameras it just works
[10:02] <Bison> I'm confused.  I've just installed xserver-xorg, but now I can't run it.  I thought it was generally the startx command that started x, but that doesn't seem to be existent.  My .xinitrc file is empty, and it doesn't seem right
[10:02] <Flannel> klm-: you have to go one upgrade at a time.  Hoary to dapper is likely to break (and does)
[10:02] <sh4dox> sanket:  XD
[10:02] <PWill> m-o-r-i-z, unplug it, and plug it back in
[10:02] <ladydoor> kishore: that *should* bring up the wiki page with the instructions
[10:03] <Csabo2> Eclypse, i'm not 100% if this is right, but mount /dev/sda -t fat /media/iPod
[10:03] <longwave> Phoul: do you have /usr/lib/libvte.so.4.5.1 ?
[10:03] <sanket> !upgrade > kishore
[10:03] <Csabo2> might do it, if its actually in /dev/sda
[10:03] <nox-Hand> marshall_, a. I am not your son. b. I am trying to get my webcam to work, but I am not sure that it is in my kernel or something (( I am on a standard ))
[10:03] <Flannel> klm-: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/BreezyUpgrade
[10:03] <m-o-r-i-z> PWill ok
[10:03] <vapermonkey00> i got ut2004 to work but i cant play online tho put sudo before ut2004
[10:03] <klm-> Flannel: ok, thanks
[10:03] <sh4dox> sanket: so what about the brown background color? =D
[10:03] <Phoul> $ whereis /usr/lib/libvte.so.4.5.1
[10:03] <Phoul> libvte.so.4.5:
[10:03] <Phoul> Thats what i seem to get
[10:03] <Eclypse> it said mount point /media/ipod does not exist.
[10:03] <sanket> sh4dox: I said go to System >> Admin >> Login Window
[10:03] <Csabo2> Eclypse,  yes mate you need to create the dir first :)
[10:03] <Csabo2> Eclypse, do mkdir /media/ipod
[10:04] <sanket> Eclypse: create it ...
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> Logical eh? :P
[10:04] <sanket> yes
[10:04] <Csabo2> Eclypse,  then run the previous command
[10:04] <ladydoor> Bison: try installing ubuntu-desktop
[10:04] <sh4dox> sanket: can't see login window
[10:04] <Phoul> longwave, ?
[10:04] <longwave> Phoul: why can apt-get not download packages?
[10:04] <ladydoor> Bison: and then sudo gdm
[10:04] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mkdir /media/ipod
[10:04] <Bison> ladydoor: okay, will try now
[10:04] <Phoul> I dont know longwave
[10:04] <Eclypse> lol ok
[10:04] <Phoul> :-\
[10:04] <sanket> sh4dox: :/
[10:04] <Phoul> apt-get can download packages i think
[10:04] <shaantanu> justr a sec
[10:04] <Eclypse> lol fun fun
[10:04] <sanket> sh4dox: impossible
[10:04] <Eclypse> Unknown filesystem fat
[10:04] <Csabo2> Eclypse,  yea sorry, i forgot about sudo, i dont actually use ubuntu :)
[10:04] <ladydoor> Bison: you can use startx if you prefer, but you do need to set up a ~/.xinitrc file and install a window manager
[10:04] <Bison> jeez...lots of packages
[10:04] <Phoul> It just cant download that one
[10:04] <ravenous> im trying to set the user image in kde under control center -> password & user account but it says 'your administrator has disallowed changing your image'? how can i change this?
[10:04] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:04] <marshall_> nox-Hand:  have you ever dpkg-reconfigured xserver-xorg?
[10:04] <Pedriyu21away> xDD
[10:04] <Csabo2> Eclypse,  it might be FAT
[10:04] <sanket> Eclypse: do you know what format the ipod is?
[10:04] <shaantanu> sanket : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21723
[10:05] <ppd> hello. how do I export a xsession to another ip? export display=ip ? that doesn't work for me as it complains about the target xserver not being reachable
[10:05] <leo^> do the xgl and compiz things work with a 64 mb o/b video card
[10:05] <thompa> for someone coming from kde using konqueror, what do you use in gnome if anything?
[10:05] <sanket> shaantanu: ok
[10:05] <Eclypse> sanket its gotta be FAT or FAT32 possibly
[10:05] <longwave> Phoul: so what about apt-get install --reinstall libvte4? didn't it say it couldn't download?
[10:05] <Bison> ladydoor: um...that doesn't seem to make sense.  bash tells me that it doesn't exist in my $PATH
[10:05] <Phoul> longwave, yeah
[10:05] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mount /dev/sda /media/ipod -t vfat
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> xDD
[10:05] <Phoul> Reinstallation of libvte4 is not possible, since it cannot be downloaded.
[10:05] <sh4dox> sanket: sry =D found it (my ubuntu is dutch configured ... a few translation prob) =D
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:05] <|thunder> leo^: yep
[10:05] <ladydoor> Bison: bash tells you what doesn't exist in your path?
[10:05] <sanket> sh4dox: ok
[10:05] <Phoul> But like i can reinstall cowsay
[10:05] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  are you sshing to the remote machine?
[10:05] <Eclypse> ok that worked
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> algun espaol?
[10:05] <Pedriyu21away> 
[10:05] <Bison> hold on
[10:05] <Csabo2> Eclypse,  you should probobly listen to sanket, i'm retarded
[10:05] <longwave> Phoul: try "sudo apt-get update" first
[10:05] <Eclypse> dev/sda is already mounted or /media/ipod is busy.
[10:05] <Csabo2> Pedriyu21away, stfu please
[10:05] <Flannel> !es
[10:05] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:05] <sanket> Csabo2: lol why?
[10:06] <Pedriyu21away> oks
[10:06] <Csabo2> Eclypse, you sure it isnt mounted allready? type mount -a
[10:06] <Bison> -bash: startx: command not found
[10:06] <Pedriyu21away> thanks
[10:06] <Csabo2> erm no thats not it, crap
[10:06] <sanket> Eclypse: cd /media/ipod; ls -l
[10:06] <Phoul> longwave, cant be downloaded
[10:06] <ladydoor> Pedriyu21away: hablo algo de espaol. qu necesita ud.?
[10:06] <nox-Hand> marshall_, nope. it's a Divio Prolink DS3303u WebCam and I need ov511 in the kernel
[10:06] <Phoul> This is a serious problem lol
[10:06] <Csabo2> sanket,  whats the switch for mount to see all mounts
[10:06] <nox-Hand> I dont know whether I have
[10:06] <HellDragon> heh
[10:06] <Pedriyu21away> privado
[10:06] <sh4dox> sanket: i found it XD brb again
[10:06] <longwave> Phoul: have you modified your /etc/apt/sources.list recently?
[10:06] <sanket> Csabo2: mount -v
[10:06] <sanket> Csabo2: mount also works
[10:06] <Csabo2> sanket,  because you know more than me, and i want to help people not break stuff :P
[10:06] <ppd> Dr_Willis: no. I use basic linux and so I start a remote session on it via startxt and now I want my ubuntu to export the xserver to that ip
[10:06] <Phoul> longwave, not recently but i have modified it
[10:06] <Csabo2> sanket,  thanks :)
[10:06] <Phoul> when i installed
[10:06] <Phoul> but not since then
[10:06] <Eclypse> total 0
[10:07] <Zambezi> Which is the easiest SMTP-server for Ubuntu? I need something the won't cause my headache and frustation.
[10:07] <Csabo2> Zambezi, sendmail?
[10:07] <IceTox> Where may I find out what the video card's bus identifier is on my computer?
[10:07] <sanket> Eclypse: go to Places >> Ipod if it exists
[10:07] <sh4dox> sanket seems to have more succes then the bot XD =P
[10:07] <Eclypse> places?
[10:07] <Eclypse> wtf you talking about?
[10:07] <Eclypse> lol
[10:07] <Csabo2> he doesnt have a desktop
[10:07] <Eclypse> lol
[10:07] <Csabo2> hes in a terminal
[10:07] <ppd> Dr_Willis: I was told it'd be enough to set DISPLAY to that ip
[10:07] <sanket> oh ok I forgot
[10:07] <Csabo2> lol
[10:07] <Eclypse> lol
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  you can enable the xdmcp stuff and  have gdm/kdm/xdm scan and show the remote machine. ya then just click and  login and its running the whole X session on the rempote box.
[10:07] <Zambezi> Csabo2, Have you tried it yourself?
[10:07] <Csabo2> okay i have to go do a lab i'll be back in a bit
[10:07] <sanket> Eclypse: is your ipod empty/
[10:07] <longwave> Zambezi: probably postfix, exim4 isn't too bad, sendmail is old and hard to configure
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> ppd, im thinking theres a little more to it then that,.
[10:07] <shaantanu> csabo2 .. how do u do that ... **smack sanket ??
[10:08] <Csabo2> if don_j comes back tell him ill be back in a bit
[10:08] <longwave> Zambezi: qmail might be ok too but i don't like the non-standard way it does things
[10:08] <Csabo2> shaantanu,  use /me
[10:08] <sanket> shaantanu: /me message
[10:08] <shaantanu> k
[10:08] <Csabo2> its an action command, in most every client
[10:08] <Csabo2> see :)
[10:08] <navreet> what's the best software for video conferencing?
[10:08] <shaantanu> :)
[10:08] <klm-> what's the difference between apt-get autoclean and apt-get clean ?
[10:08] <navreet> or messing around with webcam
[10:08] <Eclypse> sanket nope.
[10:08] <sanket> navreet: Ekiga
[10:08] <shaantanu> sanket ... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21723
[10:08] <Flannel> klm-: autoclean just cleans stuff that's no longer in repositories
[10:09] <longwave> klm-: clean deletes all downloaded packages, autoclean only deletes old ones that can't be downloaded any more
[10:09] <sanket> damn, everytime I click some link, my browser opens the same link :S
[10:09] <Zambezi> longwave, I need something easy and secure. It's only for me.
[10:09] <sanket> shaantanu: got it. hold on
[10:09] <shaantanu> k
[10:09] <klm-> ok thank you
[10:09] <Eclypse> umm yeah guys...
[10:09] <Eclypse> what can I do here?
[10:09] <Eclypse> lol
[10:09] <longwave> Zambezi: the default install of exim4 won't need much modifying, and that's debian's recommendation at least, but you should take a look at postfix too
[10:09] <IceTox> Do anyone know where may I find out what the video card's bus identifier is on my computer?
[10:09] <sparkleytone>  i have a norwood micro branded card that dmesg tells me is card=113 and tuner=4 ... i cannot for the LIFE of me figure out how to get it to create the /dev/video0 device ... can anyone either help or point me in the right direction?
[10:09] <edgarin> Hi to all
[10:10] <liran_> |thunder: actually im not sure if that shows me how to accomplish my own customer gnome session.
[10:10] <liran_> |thunder: have you got any other clues?
[10:10] <edgarin> howto fix broken packages in apt-get??
[10:10] <sanket> someone was asking about Video Editors, try PITIVI, sudo apt-get install pitivi, downloads only 15 kb :P and looks grt
[10:10] <HellDragon> its still not working !
[10:10] <ladydoor> edgarin: how do you mean? could you be more specific?
[10:10] <HellDragon> im installing win95 in vmware
[10:10] <Tonren> edgarin: sudo apt-get install -f
[10:10] <Eclypse> sanket
[10:10] <Eclypse> what can I do here man?
[10:10] <ppd> Dr_Willis: what exactly?
[10:10] <Eclypse> I need a bloody very important file off my iPod
[10:10] <Zambezi> longwave, I'll try postfix first, then exim4. Thanks for your answer.
[10:10] <sanket> Eclypse: is your IPOD empty?
[10:11] <Eclypse> No
[10:11] <ppd> Dr_Willis: first I wanted to use xdmcp but that didn't work :(
[10:11] <mafu> Hello everyone. :) I'm new to ubuntu and am looking for a program to edit my php/mysql scripts easily. What I really need is code highlighting and easy uploading. Any suggestions?

[10:11] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  this is a rather complex topic. and lots of pitfalls and it depends on Exactly what you want to do. You can set up a Local machine. and have several X sessions running on it. each on a Different remote machine. Its not too hard to do.
[10:11] <F0LL0W3R> heey how can i change the temporary user "oem" to the one i want ?
[10:11] <edgarin> ok excuseme
[10:11] <ladydoor> mafu: sharp learning curve, but once you get the hang of it it can do *anything*
[10:11] <sanket> shaantanu: fstab looks fine to me
[10:11] <nox-Hand> marshall_, Is it possible?
[10:11] <Eclypse> I wouldn't be soo determained to use it if it didn't have files on it...sanket.
[10:11] <shaantanu> to me as well
[10:11] <longwave> edgarin: you seem to have compiz packages installed that conflict with the new ones you're trying to install
[10:11] <shaantanu> but still it wont boot
[10:11] <shaantanu> I m talking to u frm windows
[10:12] <sh4dox> sanket: I don't admit with pleasure ... but in this case
[10:12] <marshall_> nox-Hand:  yeah im pretty sure, but i dont remember a lot about which kernel mods do what
[10:12] <mathieu> ladydoor: then i'll say vim!
[10:12] <Flannel> F0LL0W3R: you mean, you want to setup your real user?  there's... an OEM config script... type "oem" and hit tab twice, see if it comes up.
[10:12] <longwave> edgarin: #ubuntu-xgl might be able to help more
[10:12] <sh4dox> sanket:  YOU RULE !! XD XD
[10:12] <nox-Hand> marshall_, mkay
[10:12] <sanket> shaantanu: actually, this is some bug in Dapper I guess. Many people face this prob, but there is no specific solution :/
[10:12] <marshall_> nox-Hand:  im gonna say look out for v4l and v4l2
[10:12] <nox-Hand> Thanks
[10:12] <ppd> Dr_Willis: I want to use an old laptop running basic linux as an xterminal. xdmcp didn't work.
[10:12] <ladydoor> mathieu: lol...i'd rather not get into a religious debate :-)
[10:12] <nox-Hand> marcels, is that someting I can just install, or for in the kernel?
[10:12] <shaantanu> Do u recon I will hav to reinstall
[10:12] <F0LL0W3R> Flannel yea where i can get that script ?
[10:12] <sanket> Eclypse: use the mount command, and tell me what you see
[10:12] <mathieu> ladydoor: because you'll lose the argument. i understand. don't worry :P
[10:12] <Eclypse> umm
[10:12] <shaantanu> Arre I faced a bios virus lately and now frm grup win works fine
[10:12] <F0LL0W3R> Flannel> aha ok i will try
[10:12] <Flannel> F0LL0W3R: its already installed.  Just have to figure out the name.
[10:12] <shaantanu> but ubuntu wont boot
[10:12] <sanket> shaantanu: not really, it seems to work automatically :P
[10:13] <skirk> Who know the command for WHOIS???
[10:13] <Eclypse> sanket, you want me to type out all that stuff? or am I looking for something in particular?
[10:13] <ladydoor> mathieu: oh dear...
[10:13] <don_jr> Is the person that was helpin me a min ago still here?
[10:13] <fredl> skirk, whois
[10:13] <sanket> shaantanu: try restarting a few times, I know it sounds stupid, but it works sometimes :P
[10:13] <skirk> mm
[10:13] <longwave> skirk: install the "whois" package first, then it's just "whois domain.name"
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  it can work if done right.. or ya could just run a minimal X. and a full screen vncviewer, and connect to a vncsession on the remote box.
[10:13] <sanket> Eclypse: do you see /media/ipod ?
[10:13] <shaantanu> I already did that
[10:13] <skirk> ok
[10:13] <skirk> tnx longwave
[10:13] <shaantanu> I do all stupid stuff
[10:13] <mafu> ladydoor, thank you, I'll try
[10:13] <mafu> ladydoor,  is it installed by default
[10:13] <mafu> ?
[10:13] <sanket> shaantanu: you have to wait for a long time before you reboot
[10:13] <Eclypse> sanket, nope.
[10:13] <ladydoor> mafu: there's probably an easier-to-learn graphical client, and no it's not
[10:14] <fredl> atilibusb remote controls are STRANGE.
[10:14] <nox-Hand> ov511-source - Driver source for the OV511, a USB-only chip used in many webcams, marshall_ Will try that!
[10:14] <sanket> Eclypse: do "sudo mount /dev/sda /media/ipod -t vfat" againm
[10:14] <ladydoor> mafu: i would look in synaptic...search for "php"
[10:14] <ppd> Dr_Willis: I'd like bitter without vnc if possible :)
[10:14] <sanket> shaantanu: don't
[10:14] <sanket> shaantanu: I am using my installation since a year w/o a prob
[10:14] <shaantanu> sanket : do u think its a common prob wid dapper faced by most ppl ??
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  time to read up on the other stuff then. theres a setting you need to enable with gdm/kdm to allow it - for a start. i recall.
[10:14] <sanket> shaantanu: do 1 thing....
[10:14] <shaantanu> temme
[10:15] <sanket> shaantanu: boot in Rescue mode
[10:15] <Eclypse> sanket: mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /media/ipod busy
[10:15] <shaantanu> did that
[10:15] <ppd> Dr_Willis: do you mean xdmcp?
[10:15] <Flannel> ppd: yeah, you need to enable XDMCP, in the same place you setup your greeter screens, if I remember
[10:15] <shaantanu> wtill the same .. it hangs waiting for root filesystem
[10:15] <sparkleytone>  i have a norwood micro branded card that dmesg tells me is card=113 and tuner=4 ... i cannot for the LIFE of me figure out how to get it to create the /dev/video0 device ... can anyone either help or point me in the right direction?
[10:15] <mafu> ladydoor, I don't mind editors that can do it all, as long as I can strip them down. :D
[10:15] <longwave> ppd: yeah, there are some network settings to switch on in gdm somewhere, i think
[10:15] <sanket> shaantanu: and type fsck when you see the terminal
[10:15] <sanket> shaantanu: then reboot
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  gdm/kdm has a setting that allows/disallows xdmcp connections
[10:15] <shaantanu> no terminal seen
[10:15] <ppd> Flannel: I already did, but I can only connect to it over loopback. not over lan
[10:15] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo umount /media/ipod
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  they also have a setting that scans/shows xdmcp enabled servers on the network
[10:16] <sanket> Eclypse: then try the earlier command again
[10:16] <longwave> ppd: there is another setting to allow gdm to talk over other interfaces
[10:16] <shaantanu> hangs saying waiting for root filesystem
[10:16] <tuna> I'm getting a weird error with sound. following directions from http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide but it always halts at: http://pastebin.com/776714
[10:16] <|thunder> gnash is a worthhless peice of crap.
[10:16] <HanzZ> hi... i make ubuntu package and when i install him, i haven't any files from package in /etc... only directories ... what is wrong?
[10:16] <ladydoor> mafu: uhhh...not really, in this case. haha
[10:16] <tuna> tried installing fresh drivers and recompiling
[10:16] <sanket> shaantanu: use my nick if your talking to me
[10:16] <ppd> Dr_Willis: yes. but I would have to use it via Xvesa -query .... from another machine
[10:16] <Eclypse> umount: /media/ipod: not mounted  (sanket)
[10:16] <ppd> longwave: which one do you mean?
[10:16] <nuntiusX> I've just installed ubuntu 6.06.1 but I have a problem accessing the root acount directly. Any ideas?
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> ppd,  or set up gdm/kdm locally to scan..    ive done it several ways
[10:16] <Flannel> ppd: you must have UDP packets being filtered somewhere.  Or, haven't completely enabled it in your config.  There are two things, one is enabling remote desktops, the other is enabling them from external connections.  Or, something like that
[10:16] <tuna> there is no root account
[10:17] <Flannel> nuntiusX: there is no root account in ubuntu, we use sudo instead
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> tuna,  Faq #1
[10:17] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mount /dev/sda /media/ipod -t vfat
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> :)
[10:17] <sanket> shaantanu: yes I did and I replied too
[10:17] <Eclypse> sanket, that doesn't work, still.
[10:17] <mafu> ladydoor, ok, I think I'll give it a try anyway. Heard a lot about it ;)
[10:17] <sanket> Eclypse: what error?
[10:17] <ladydoor> mafu: sweet
[10:18] <shaantanu> what ??
[10:18] <sanket> shaantanu: I replied you
[10:18] <sanket> shaantanu: can't you read my PMs?
[10:18] <Abstract> Think this router would allow me to connect to the internet using Ubuntu? http://www.speedtouchdsl.com/prod536.htm

[10:18] <mafu> I'm sitting at a Thinkpad laptop, and the scroll thingy isn't working. Anywhere I can learn how to enable it, if possible?

[10:19] <gardengnome> hey there. i'm wondering about making my own ubuntu derivative. it looks like i could modify the default package sets by creating a new seed and using germanite to expand all the dependencies. do you guys know if there's any tool that process those lists made by germinate, eg creating a CD?
[10:19] <DanaG> I wanna use kmix.
[10:19] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/ipod
[10:19] <shaantanu> sanket : the point is that even the rescue mode cant rescue poor me
[10:19] <Eclypse> sanket, I don't know, this is a laptop :P
[10:20] <Geoffrey2> how do I kill a program that stops responding?
[10:20] <sanket> shaantanu: you have to give the command "fsck" in rescue mode
[10:20] <Flannel> ppd: firewalls can do that.  I had that problem for a while.  remember, it's UDP.
[10:20] <shaantanu> on the bash naa
[10:20] <shaantanu> sanket
[10:20] <longwave> ppd: there are different options for local and remote clients, look in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[10:20] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: killall programname
[10:20] <sanket> shaantanu: yes,
[10:20] <shaantanu> sanket : but i m not getting the bash promt only
[10:20] <ppd> Flannel: if ubuntu doesn't use a firewall then there is none
[10:20] <Kameli> hi! do u know can i get better fps in games with 64 bit OS? i have 32bit OS but 64 bit processor, so can i get same advantage with 64 bit prossessor and 32 bit OS like with 64 bit OS?
[10:20] <shaantanu> hangs saying waiting for root fs
[10:20] <sanket> shaantanu: then what to you get?
[10:20] <Eclypse> sanket, didn't work, gave me an error saying bad option, bad sperblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage or other error.
[10:20] <don_jr> Csabo2 you here?
[10:20] <|thunder> i 'apt-get remove gnash'd and now firefox crashes x to the loader on any page with flash. lame.
[10:21] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/ipod
[10:21] <ompaul> gardengnome some info here www.gnewsense.org on that
[10:21] <Geoffrey2> ladydoor, hmmm, didn't work
[10:21] <lmosher> how does one check what Ubuntu thinks the CPU clock speed is?
[10:21] <Flannel> ppd: check to make sure your router is allowing UDP - some filter them out by default
[10:21] <kmasta_> so i'm trying to install flash and i get this ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the
[10:21] <kmasta_>        Macromedia Flash Player installer.
[10:21] <gardengnome> ompaul: thanks a lot! much appreciated :)
[10:21] <shawarma> lmosher: /proc/cpuinfo
[10:21] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: sometimes they just refuse to die...is it a graphikal app or terminal-based?
[10:21] <don_jr> I have a problem with x starting.  I have the errors that ti's given me that I can put on #flood if anyone has time to look at it for me please?
[10:21] <ompaul> gardengnome not the method you wanted but hey it works
[10:21] <Eclypse> sanket, it said "you must specify the filesystem type
[10:22] <|thunder> kmasta: ya, it sucks. adboe has not released a 64 bit flash binary yet. and its not open source.
[10:22] <Geoffrey2> ladydoor, mplayer
[10:22] <sanket> kmasta_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[10:22] <sanket> Eclypse: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/ipod -t vfat
[10:22] <sanket> !rescue
[10:22] <ubotu> To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system"
[10:22] <kmasta_> thank you sanket
[10:22] <ladydoor> try this:  <alt>f2, type "gkill," hit enter
[10:22] <Eclypse> sanket, same error I got earlier.
[10:22] <sanket> kmasta_: np
[10:22] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: try this:  <alt>f2, type "gkill," hit enter
[10:22] <Flannel> kmasta_: you can only get flash on i386
[10:22] <sanket> Eclypse: which? specify filesystem?
[10:22] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: (i'm not sure whether i'm making up that command or not, haha
[10:23] <ladydoor> )
[10:23] <sanket> Flannel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[10:23] <shaantanu> or in other words where do i find rescue ?
[10:23] <ppd> Flannel: could it be lan port filter set protocol filter = 2?
[10:23] <sanket> shaantanu: use a live cd and in the terminal type "fsck"
[10:23] <Eclypse> sanket, god damnit..I hate typing out this shit, anyways "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or other error."
[10:23] <shaantanu> sanket : k
[10:23] <sanket> Eclypse: be patient
[10:23] <LPF> Am I going crazy or is there simply no control panel in Ubuntu that alows me to set up dual monitors?
[10:24] <Geoffrey2> ladydoor, I watched a video in mplayer, and now I can't get it to exit...I can minimize it, but I can't get it to close
[10:24] <Flannel> gardengnome: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[10:24] <gardengnome> ompaul: i'll take a look. at the moment, i'm still in the very early stages of investigation :)
[10:24] <shaantanu> !fsck
[10:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fsck - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:24] <Eclypse> sanket, this is rediculous, its like one error after another...
[10:24] <Eclypse> sanket, to fix a problem that wasen't even my fault
[10:24] <|thunder> LPF: there is one for nvidia that installs when I install my drivers with automatix.
[10:24] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: the thing is, killall usually works :-( . plus, i don't use gnome, so i'm not familiar with its commands
[10:24] <sanket> Eclypse:  dmesg | grep /dev/sd
[10:25] <ladydoor> sorry
[10:25] <gardengnome> Flannel: sounds like another sensible approach. thanks :)
[10:25] <LPF> |thunder: I use an ATI dual-head card (Radeon 9550 chipset)
[10:25] <sanket> Eclypse: tell me the output of that cmd
[10:25] <fredl> lirc is annoying me....
[10:25] <shaantanu> Eclypse : looks like ur luck is eclypsed
[10:25] <Eclypse> sanket *sighs* ok...
[10:25] <don_jr> I can't get x to run, can someone come to #flood and look at the errors I have?
[10:25] <|thunder> LPF: sry. ive never used ati
[10:25] <Eclypse> shaantanu, how so?
[10:25] <exmethix> witch  = with
[10:25] <exmethix> filesystem is reiserfs

[10:25] <sanket> lol
[10:25] <shaantanu> (01:54:32) Eclypse: sanket, this is rediculous, its like one error after another...
[10:25] <shaantanu> (01:54:40) Eclypse: sanket, to fix a problem that wasen't even my fault
[10:25] <sanket> Eclypse: what is your actual problem ?
[10:26] <Eclypse> shaantanu
[10:26] <Eclypse> oh
[10:26] <Eclypse> ok
[10:26] <Eclypse> umm...
[10:26] <sanket> Eclypse: why isn't your X working?
[10:26] <Eclypse> the xserver-xorg-core update was bugged a few days ago
[10:26] <Eclypse> completely crashed it
[10:26] <Eclypse> so I have the old file on my iPod to fix this crap
[10:26] <Geoffrey2> ok, looks like I restart the system.....I've heard people ask whether Dapper is stable....from what I'm seeing, the answer is a definite NO
[10:26] <Pulshion> hi, how can i change speed of fan for my video card and check temp of the card in ubuntu, i used atitool with windows
[10:26] <fredl> eclypse - but you upgrade to the new one 10.4 right?

[10:27] <fredl> Eclypse: export http_proxy=.....
[10:27] <sanket> shaantanu: unmount all drives before running fsck
[10:27] <Eclypse> fredl ok
[10:28] <sanket> shaantanu: meaning all mounted drives
[10:28] <fredl> Eclypse - then apt-get update/apt-get dist-upgrade

[10:29] <shaantanu> sanket : wish me luck then .. .BTW what does the command do ?
[10:29] <sanket> sh4dox: ask
[10:29] <fredl> Eclypse: yes. http_proxy=blah.myproxy.com:3128
[10:29] <sanket> shaantanu: fsck checks the file system for errors
[10:29] <fredl> Eclypse, that's right.
[10:29] <bluefox83> my freind is running ubuntu breezy and he's trying to add a new splash screen to gnome...but the "splash screen" option in "System->Preferences" is missing...is there another way for him to load the new splash screen theme?
[10:29] <shaantanu> hmm

[10:30] <sanket> sh4dox: frankly, I have not tried
[10:30] <sanket> shaantanu: I know what it is
[10:30] <sh4dox> sanket: it's an ifra red port
[10:30] <shaantanu> sanket : irda -> infrared

[10:33] <Geoffrey2> don_jr, yep, they had a problem with an update at the beginning of the week...if you go here they show the quick directions to fix the problem...http://www.ubuntu.com/FixForUpgradeIssue
[10:33] <sanket> Jamminpotato: you must see an icon on your desktop which is actually the system tray icon for utorrent, right clik it
[10:33] <sh4dox> sanket: I installed 3D desktop ... I need to bind it to a key .. but I can't figure out where to do this in dapper drake (it worked nice in breezy)
[10:33] <sanket> sh4dox: what key?
[10:33] <ladydoor> sh4dox: have you considered installing the powerful xbindkeys?
[10:33] <Eclypse> shaantanu nah, this be my nick forever
[10:33] <fredl> anybody here maintain the launchpad page for xorg problems?
[10:34] <Jamminpotato> sanket what do i do once i right click the icon
[10:34] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 thanx, hope it works
[10:34] <sanket> Jamminpotato: Show utorrent, or somethng like that
[10:34] <Ramdo> anyone can help me :S plz?
[10:34] <ese5> anybody have a problem with really quiet sound?
[10:34] <bluefox83> ok, can i clear out my sources.list and then repopulate it with the "Software properties" ?
[10:34] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 sorry the page you have requested does not exist....
[10:34] <sanket> Ramdo: question?
[10:34] <sh4dox> sanket: in breezy I used F12 to use 3D desktop
[10:34] <Flannel> bluefox83: what?
[10:34] <Ramdo> Use my LG Chocolate with ubuntu
[10:34] <sanket> bluefox83: NO!!!
[10:34] <fredl> anybody here maintain the launchpad page for xorg problems?
[10:34] <bluefox83> cus i keep getting duplicated results in my damned sources.list
[10:34] <Jamminpotato> sanket i guess i'll try that
[10:34] <sh4dox> ladydoor: "powerfull xbindkeys"? XD
[10:34] <relachs> what repo contains IE? when i search it says not found :(
[10:35] <ladydoor> sh4dox: lol
[10:35] <nuntiusX> uil
[10:35] <ompaul> fredl, not that we know - what is your xorg issue?
[10:35] <raindog> Can someone suggest a good podcast aggregator for Ubuntu?
[10:35] <Geoffrey2> don_jr, ok, just go to www.ubuntu.com....they have a link at the top of the page
[10:35] <ladydoor> sh4dox: you must remember to take everything i say with a grain of irony
[10:35] <bluefox83> sanket, why not?
[10:35] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 got it, thanx again
[10:35] <ladydoor> sh4dox: because my irony gland has been proven by doctors to be overactive
[10:35] <sanket> bluefox83: Software properties is just a GUI wrapper for sources.list
[10:35] <sh4dox> ladydoor: ooow =D
[10:35] <yey> 22:32 < yey_> 22:31 < yey_> hmm, I write rather small programs and I'm afraid of using a template with a list of headers include because of compile time. Is it possible to precompile them? I have just one file.cpp.
[10:35] <yey> 22:32 < yey_> 22:31 < yey_> I need some very simple way of doing this
[10:35] <yey> Sorry for that mess.
[10:35] <sh4dox> ladydoor: and you are still alive? XD =P
[10:35] <yey> I use g++
[10:36] <justin_> Does anyone know how to remove programs, that were compiled by source - and not installed by Synaptic or Apt, and do NOT have their own un-installation procedure or script?
[10:36] <fredl> ompaul, none, but I just helped Eclypse fix his problem. The instructions on how to fix the problem on http://www.ubuntu.com/FixForUpgradeIssue don't include instructions for using a proxy server
[10:36] <ladydoor> sh4dox: i know, i thank god every day
[10:36] <bluefox83> sanket, oh..ok...sorry i'm not used to having a gui for sources.list i'm an ex-debianer
[10:36] <ladydoor> justin_: sudo make uninstall, in the directory the source is
[10:36] <sanket> bluefox83: then you shudve already know that :P
[10:36] <ese5> anyone have any idea why my sound would be so quiet after installing ubuntu?
[10:36] <Flannel> bluefox83: just edit your sources.list then, and remove duplicates
[10:36] <Ramdo> so, no one :S?
[10:36] <lupine_85> hi fiona
[10:36] <sh4dox> ladydoor: rofl XD i'll help you thank him =P  (oow my sarcasm XD)
[10:36] <marshall_>  does anybody know the default patht o sendmail? bugbuddy is asking for it
[10:36] <fredl> anybody here with write access to www.ubuntu.com?
[10:36] <bluefox83> Flannel, i did, they seem to have reproduced themselves somehow
[10:37] <ompaul> fredl, ahh k, drop into #ubuntu-docs and and explain what needs to be there
[10:37] <ppd> Flannel: I get AUDIT: Sat Aug 26 22:35:59 2006: 5570 X: client 23 rejected from IP 127.0.0.1
[10:37] <ppd>  in Xorg.0.log when trying to connect from the client
[10:37] <ladydoor> ese5: install alsamixer and then run it in a terminal--it'll let you see if any of your channels aare really low
[10:37] <sanket> Ramdo: I did not see your question
[10:37] <Flannel> bluefox83: nah, just make sure youve updated
[10:37] <ladydoor> sh4dox: thank you
[10:37] <ppd> Flannel: and second line:   Auth name: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 ID: -1
[10:37] <bluefox83> Flannel, i did!
[10:37] <ese5> ladydoor: ok i'll try it
[10:37] <abhinay> I have problem with AIGLX,  no shortcut keys are working & no border for windows ? Help Plz ?
[10:37] <fredl> ompaul - ok
[10:37] <Flannel> ppd: sorry, no idea.  However, you've got some stuff to google about now ;)
[10:37] <marshall_>  does anybody know the default patht o sendmail? bugbuddy is asking for it
[10:37] <Ramdo> sanket : using my LG Chocolate with Ubuntu
[10:37] <sanket> !xgl > abhinay
[10:37] <fredl> ompaul, there's nobody in #ubuntu-docs
[10:37] <sanket> Ramdo: what is the problem?
[10:37] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 okay, trying again after following the steps on the website
[10:38] <justin_> ladydoor: Thanks, can I do this after I compile and install the program?, Or should I do it before I compile and install?
[10:38] <Ramdo> I dont know how to use it, to transfer pics and video from the celphone to the PC
[10:38] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 still same problem
[10:38] <ompaul> fredl, ahh sorry - one s to many :) #ubuntu-doc
[10:38] <ladydoor> justin_: i'm sorry...why do you need to uninstall it before you install it?
[10:38] <sanket> Ramdo: using Bluetooth?
[10:38] <Ramdo> no, with cable
[10:38] <sanket> Ramdo: which?
[10:39] <TheGame> hey
[10:39] <sanket> hey
[10:39] <Ramdo> USB
[10:39] <don_jr> Geoffrey2 i have played with the xorg-conf file and changed it to vesa.  If I run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg what resolution should I use?
[10:39] <TheGame> any1 here good with wine
[10:39] <GNuJoe> everytime I install it turns off my laptop when it get's to probing the hardware, any way to stop that?
[10:39] <Administrator_> j
[10:39] <justin_> ladydoor: Ahh ok, it will uninstall the program - I thought it would generate an executable to run that would uninstall the prog ;) - nevermind thanks again
[10:39] <sanket> Ramdo: just connect it and see if you get an icon on the desktop
[10:39] <raindog> Hi.  With my dialup modem how can I see at what speed I am connected?
[10:39] <GNuJoe> Since it never finishes it leaves me with a broken system...
[10:39] <Ramdo> no, it doesnt, dmesg says something about it didnt recognize it
[10:39] <CTU24> j
[10:39] <Ramdo> I have the CD, but dunno if will work with wine
[10:40] <ladydoor> justin_: oh! no
[10:40] <ladydoor> justin_: have fun!
[10:40] <longwave> GNuJoe: try using the "noacpi" option when you boot, that helps with some laptops
[10:40] <Jamminpotato> ack! azureus made a little pop up notification, and now i cant get it to go away, how can i get rid of it without restarting X
[10:40] <GNuJoe> longwave, trying that now
[10:40] <justin_> ladydoor: Oh I am :) - Im tinkering with some open source programs - see what does what hah :)
[10:40] <Jamminpotato> ?
[10:40] <sanket> Ramdo: what are you exactly trying to do? explain
[10:40] <CTU24> how do I kick someone out that is bothering me?
[10:41] <dcordero> hi
[10:41] <ladydoor> justin_: sounds intense. good luck!
[10:41] <GNuJoe> longwave, there should be a "do you want to probe your hw" question in the install though
[10:41] <fredl> CTU24 - you gain channel operator status first.
[10:41] <Ramdo> Im just triying to transfer media to the PC, from the phone
[10:41] <Ramdo> and from the pc to the phone
[10:41] <sanket> Ramdo: which phone?
[10:41] <CTU24> fredl: and how does one do that?
[10:41] <Ramdo> LG Chocolate
[10:41] <longwave> CTU24: use the /ignore feature of your irc client
[10:41] <TheGame> any1 here use firefox with wine?
[10:41] <Flannel> CTU24: you dont, in a pinch.
[10:41] <sanket> Ramdo: have you done it in windoze/
[10:41] <ladydoor> TheGame: why not just use firefox with...linux?
[10:41] <coredata> Hello
[10:42] <Ramdo> yep, it works there
[10:42] <coredata> you tell me ;)
[10:42] <ladydoor> TheGame: it comes automagically installed
[10:42] <longwave> if you want shockwave you need firefox under wine :(
[10:42] <TheGame> cuz linux doesnt have support for flash 8 or 9
[10:42] <ladydoor> longwave: what's shockwave?
[10:42] <fredl> CTU24, please transfer $100 into my account and I'll make sure you get channel operator status.
[10:42] <sanket> Ramdo: does it show a new drive for your device there?
[10:42] <tjb891> can anyone tell me how to choose what appears in the applications menu?
[10:42] <longwave> ladydoor: similar to flash, but not as widely used
[10:42] <gnomefreak> CTU24: if the person is not breaking rules or coc than you can just /ignore <nick>
[10:42] <TheGame> use a la carte tjb891
[10:42] <ladydoor> longwave: oh
[10:42] <sanket> TheGame: how many sites use Flash 8/9 ?
[10:42] <dcordero> tjb891 there are a menu editor in Gnome->Accesories
[10:42] <TheGame> all the ones i go to
[10:42] <tjb891> thegame:were is that?
[10:42] <Ramdo> No, I use it thru the Software provided by the vendor. Not as a USB Mass Storage
[10:42] <TheGame> accesories menu
[10:42] <CTU24> fredl: np, what is your account number, routing number and your SS#, and I'll take care of that pronto
[10:42] <fredl> CTU24, ofcourse what gnomefreak says is cheaper.
[10:42] <Ramdo> I want to do that on Ubuntu
[10:43] <gnomefreak> tjb891: applications>accessories>alacrate
[10:43] <TheGame> anyway i get an error when i try to use firefox with wine
[10:43] <CTU24> ignore worked fine for me
[10:43] <tjb891> thx
[10:43] <Ramdo> or as a USB Mass Storage Volume dont care, just wanna have it working
[10:43] <sanket> Ramdo: is it necessary to use the software?
[10:43] <TheGame> so i was wondering if someone could take a look at the pastebin
[10:43] <sanket> Ramdo: ok
[10:43] <sanket> Ramdo: I want the dmesg error
[10:43] <TheGame> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21727
[10:44] <Ramdo> I dont have it here, sorry, something about I/O error, something about 64 bits, but at last, it gives me a success string
[10:44] <CTU24> lol, omg, the dude ended up getting kicked by one of the channel operator guys I guess
[10:45] <sanket> Ramdo: does it mount it?
[10:45] <CTU24> I just got an email from him and he's all mad thinking that I kicked him out
[10:45] <CTU24> too good
[10:45] <sanket> Ramdo: I can't help much without the error, you need to do it simultaneously as we talk
[10:45] <Ramdo> no, and I dont know the node :S
[10:45] <longwave> TheGame: looks like aiglx or whatever 3D X rendering driver you are using isn't working right
[10:46] <sanket> Ramdo: what node? it should mount as /media/somedir
[10:46] <sh4dox> ok i'm having troubles following the irda wiki ... it sais "change etc etc" but I can't save the changes :s
[10:46] <PingunZ> How can I disable update-notifier to start up ?
[10:46] <CTU24> on ubuntu 6.06.1  is there a way to login as root?
[10:46] <longwave> sh4dox: what are you trying to change, and with what editor?
[10:46] <don_jr> Okay, I updated and I'm running vesa drivers....why won't my X stqart?
[10:46] <Ramdo> yep, but I want the /dev/somenode to mount it, cause it doesnt mount it when I plug it
[10:46] <sanket> PingunZ: right click it, preferences
[10:46] <longwave> CTU24: just use sudo, or "sudo -i" if you really want a root shell
[10:46] <GNuJoe> longwave, fewf that did it, laptop saved!!!
[10:46] <CTU24> I know there is the sudo command... but would like to bypass that if possible
[10:46] <dcordero> CTU24 sudo su
[10:46] <TheGame> longwave: so u think its the i810 driver?
[10:46] <CTU24> longwave.. oh ok cool
[10:46] <PingunZ> ty sanket, stupid question :)
[10:47] <longwave> TheGame: it's libGL reporting the problem, which is to do with 3d rendering, but i'm not sure how you would go about fixing it
[10:47] <Dr_Willis> sudo -s
[10:47] <sanket> Ramdo: try "sudo mount /dev/sdx /media/somenode" and replace x with a,b,.... depending on your hardware
[10:47] <ladydoor> CTU24: you need to set the root password
[10:47] <PingunZ> or " sudo -s -H "
[10:47] <ladydoor> CTU24: sudo passwd root
[10:47] <ladydoor> CTU24: and then you can su
[10:47] <Flannel> ladydoor: no.  He doesn't need to set a root password.  Sudo will work fine.
[10:47] <longwave> you really dont need to set a root password on ubuntu
[10:47] <Flannel> !tell CTU24 about rootsudo
[10:47] <longwave> just use sudo
[10:47] <CTU24> ladydoor: Excellent info.  thank you
[10:48] <fredl> ladydoor, shhhh don't say that or the Ubuntu developpers won't have a backdoor in his system anymore.
[10:48] <sh4dox> longwave: i'm trying to change some irda setting stuff using the following command "sudo vi /etc/default/irda-utils" ... but can't i "vi" replace by "gedit" ?
[10:48] <Ramdo> Ok, I ll try, if doesnt work, any other sugestion?
[10:48] <Flannel> sh4dox: sure, gksudo gedit
[10:48] <fredl> sh4dox, ofcourse.
[10:48] <tjcarter> someone please tell me where someone not using gnome puts a cursor theme?  I have spent the better part of the last hour trying to figure this out.
[10:48] <longwave> sh4dox: use "gksudo" instead of "sudo" for gui apps
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> setting a root password - can also confuse some thangs. (or so i hear) not sure what. :P its always sort of vague.
[10:48] <tjcarter> after several hours finding one that's not tiny
[10:48] <tjcarter> I haven't even BEGUN setting up MythTV because I can't see my mouse!
[10:49] <sanket> Ramdo: it might ask you the file system type, then use "sudo mount /dev/sdx /media/somenode -t vfat" replace vfat with your file system type
[10:49] <ladydoor> fredl: what?
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> tjcarter,  so you wan tto change the default X icon. which is  comming from some FONT file. if i recall.  xcursor font or somthing.
[10:49] <fredl> ladydoor, just kidding.
[10:49] <Ramdo> Ok, thankz
[10:49] <Ramdo> and another question :)
[10:49] <sanket> sure
[10:49] <ladydoor> tjcarter: so use ratpoison :-)
[10:49] <tjcarter> Dr_Willis: nope, redglass/whieglass/etc
[10:49] <fredl> although... what IS the default Ubuntu root password anyways? :)
[10:49] <ladydoor> fredl: aha
[10:49] <don_jr> How do I find out the BusID for my video card?
[10:49] <Ramdo> I was just triyin to connect via ppp ( dialup ) and it hangs when I try to, it stop on "ATZ"
[10:49] <ladydoor> fredl: as far as i know, it doesn't exist
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> tjcarter,  the X 'pointers' of the default X gui (no kde no gnome) come from a font file.
[10:50] <longwave> fredl: there is no default root password, it is unset and logins will always give bad password
[10:50] <Ramdo> and when I try on a GUI tool, it loads the passwordfd.so plugin, then hangs too
[10:50] <fredl> longwave, are you sure? :)
[10:50] <sh4dox> longwave: using gksudo or gedit give both other outputs :s
[10:50] <tjcarter> Dr_Willis: the support for this is in X, not Gnome.
[10:50] <sanket> Ramdo: frankly, I havent used modems and I can't be of much help
[10:50] <exmethix> I have a reiser fs partition (/dev/hdb1) mounted to (/home/daten) but i have no write rights.... could somebody help me?
[10:51] <longwave> fredl: look in /etc/shadow, root has a * for the password, which means you can never log in with a password to that account
[10:51] <longwave> fredl: presuming you haven't set a root password that is
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> tjcarter,  yes... the  X by itself can use different pointers.. and they come from a font file. and i recall installingsome package that changed them
[10:51] <fredl> longwave, very well.
[10:51] <Geoffrey2> sigh....why on earth can't they make application installation more straight forward.......
[10:51] <Davey`> Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk! <--- anyone know how to fix this?
[10:51] <Davey`> windows just broke my FAT32 drive :/
[10:52] <Ramdo> lol
[10:52] <ladydoor> Davey`: sounds about right for windows...
[10:52] <sanket> Ramdo: lol?
[10:52] <fredl> Davey, Windows is the #1 severest bug on the Ubuntu buglist.
[10:52] <don_jr> I'm getting an error (ww) VESA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:9:0) found.  How do I find out what the BusID is for my vid card?
[10:52] <Davey`> I can get to the data, but I need *parted to work
[10:52] <Ramdo> wrong window
[10:52] <Ramdo> sry
[10:52] <sanket> ok

[10:53] <BigMonkey> Contacts from Evolution 1.4 didn't show up in my new Dapper Evolution.  How do I get them imported
[10:53] <longwave> don_jr: "lspci" shows you the bus ID for all pci devices
[10:53] <Ramdo> the modem, I think I dint have any error while configuring pppoe
[10:53] <ladydoor> Davey`: why do you need *parted to work on windoze?
[10:53] <don_jr> longwave thanx
[10:53] <fredl> Davey`, I'm not kidding you https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1
[10:53] <tjcarter> Dr_Willis: the font is one option.  The other is a cursor theme, which does not require a desktop environment.  It requires putting the theme somewhere like ~/.icons and telling the X server via X resources how to find it.
[10:53] <sanket> Ramdo: you don't use pppoe for modems
[10:53] <sanket> !modems

[10:54] <ladydoor> Davey`: if i may ask

[10:58] <sanket> shaantanu: did you try that cmd/
[10:58] <gnomefreak> Dr_Willis: i dont htink that path is default
[10:58] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: The fans of my iMac G5 start spinning at full power.
[10:58] <sanket> UbuntuBug: so what is the bug?
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> gnomefreak,  just trying to apt-get install artwiz-cursor

[10:59] <sanket> shaantanu: I told you .... fsck /dev/hda9
[10:59] <don_jr> longwave got it working.  had to go add the PCI address manual to xorg.conf
[10:59] <Flannel> F0LL0W3R: the oem account is a temporary one, you should be running the oem config thing, and that'll set up a real user
[10:59] <ladydoor> F0LL0W3R: i think in the system menu, there's an adduser interface...find that and add the user
[10:59] <sanket> shaantanu: /dev/hda9 is your root as per your pastebin link
[10:59] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: This bug was already submitted in October, yet it still hasn't been fixed.
[11:00] <shaantanu> hmm lemme see
[11:00] <sanket> UbuntuBug: where does it hang/
 did sudo oem-config in the cmd but nuthin appeared
[11:00] <Davey`> ladydoor: sorry, got caught up in a terminal
[11:00] <ladydoor> F0LL0W3R: i think that also in there is the option to edit a user account. first edit yours to find out what your privileges are (there'll be a bunch of tabs with stuff you can do check)
[11:00] <sanket> UbuntuBug: at what point?
[11:00] <ladydoor> Davey`: aha
[11:00] <longwave> dannylapt: do it from the network configuration gui, or add it to /etc/network/interfaces
[11:00] <aldur> hi, i'm trying to configure wireless connection and I'm not sure if the problem is the router or not
[11:00] <ladydoor> F0LL0W3R: and then edit the new one and check the same boxes
[11:00] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: It hangs once it gets to the desktop. I'm not able to move the mouse or use keyboard commands and the fans are at full-blast.
[11:00] <GNu_Joe> Where can I find a GOOD list of what's in Edgy?

 aha thx got it
[11:00] <ladydoor> Davey`: so are you just trying to edit partitions?
[11:01] <ladydoor> F0LL0W3R: shiny!
[11:01] <sh4dox> *sigh* can someone help me with my irda prob :(? someone in this room using irda on ubuntu?
[11:01] <longwave> jorgg: check out libapache2-mod-auth-pam
[11:01] <Flannel> ladydoor: the problem is, some of the configurations aren't setup in OEM mode until the final config step is run, he can't just create a new user.
[11:01] <Davey`> ladydoor: well, ideally, I'd just convert the whole damn thing to ext3, but I'll settle for going from one 200GB partition to two 100GB partitions
[11:01] <sanket> UbuntuBug: are the fans' speed varying? on my machine the fans are either working or they're not!
[11:01] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: Here's someone else who had the same problem on the Ubuntu Forums http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=242575&highlight=imac+g5
[11:01] <shaantanu> sanket : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21730
[11:01] <sanket> shaantanu: ok
[11:01] <idefix> what's the list in "Current Session" in the Sessions window for?
[11:01] <ladydoor> Davey`: and the problem is you're unable to edit mounted drives, right? are you wanting to delete windowz?
[11:02] <tuxtux> ciao
[11:02] <Flannel> F0LL0W3R: you shouldn't need to sudo, or... I don't believe so.  Try again without it
[11:02] <Davey`> ladydoor: no, the problem is that I get an error saying "Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!" which means I have to format to do anything in parted
[11:02] <dannylapt> Longwave: How do I open up the interfaces file. (I just swiched from windows yesterday =/)

 ok will try now again
[11:02] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: On the iMac G5 there are varying levels the fans can be at. They turn up when the system is under heavy load.
[11:02] <sanket> UbuntuBug: ok thanks for the info
[11:02] <longwave> dannylapt: are you in gnome? go to system > administration > networking, that is the easiest way to configure your network card
[11:02] <ladydoor> weeeeird...i guess my advice is to google for the gparted live cd and see what you can do with that...
[11:03] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: Thanks for helping with this.
[11:03] <ladydoor> oh, and if you do partition your ubuntu drive, be sure to make a separate partition for /home
[11:03] <dannylapt> Longwave: I am running ubuntu server using the CLI
[11:03] <rpedro> sh4dox: if noone here can help you try '/join #lirc' or '/join #v4l'
[11:03] <sanket> UbuntuBug: I did not help :)
[11:03] <Davey> is ladydoor a bot? :)
[11:03] <ladydoor> Davey`: oh, and if you do partition your ubuntu drive, be sure to make a separate partition for /home
[11:03] <sanket> shaantanu: I know 1 sec
[11:03] <idefix> I mean there's a load of programs that are "currently running" but I don't see them at all in my panel
[11:03] <ladydoor> Davey: no, i am not
[11:03] <rpedro> sh4dox: irda? that's infrared remote control , right?
[11:03] <ladydoor> Davey: why?
[11:03] <sh4dox> rpedro: aye
[11:03] <Davey> ladydoor: just checking, you're not quite grasping my situation ;)
[11:03] <don_jr> how do I see a list of users from terminal?
[11:04] <longwave> dannylapt: ah ok, "sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces" will give you a basic CLI text editor that you can use to edit the file, or you can use vi or emacs if you know those
[11:04] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: But at least you took into consideration my bug report. Aren't you one of the Ubuntu developers?
[11:04] <ladydoor> Davey: that's because i'm not an expert at partitioning drives
[11:04] <ACU> longwave, I went to dpkg reconfigure-xserver xorg and everything goes fine, but it does not ask me about resolutions either for the care nor for the Monitor - the point is that I want to change so connected to my projector I can use more than 640/480
[11:04] <manopulus> strange inssue. fresh dapper installation. sound card not detected, but under root plays music (mpg123, mplayer) and alsamixer works - under root. but users cannot play music or do something. what i have to configure to allow sound card?
[11:04] <sh4dox> rpedro: did everything by the irda wikipages but it still won't work
[11:04] <dannylapt> Longwave: THank you.
[11:04] <Davey> ladydoor: I have an external, 200GB FAT32 drive, it is used for backup from multiple computers, but one is a mac and produces filenames FAT32 can't cope with. WinXP just corrupted my filesystem so now I can't do anything to it :/
[11:04] <ladydoor> don_jr: users
[11:04] <rpedro> sh4dox: ok, people on those channels may be able to help you
[11:04] <Groovebot> manopulus, the users have to be in the audio group
[11:04] <lupine_85> fsck.vfat ?
[11:05] <sh4dox> rpedro: thnx
[11:05] <Davey> lupine_85: hrm, OK
[11:05] <sanket> shaantanu: try e2fsck /dev/hda9
[11:05] <GNu_Joe> Where can I find a GOOD list of what's in Edgy?

[11:05] <ladydoor> oh...that's fun. i don't know what to tell you
[11:05] <ladydoor> Davey: oh...that's fun. i don't know what to tell you
[11:05] <UbuntuBug> Sanket: Oh. Okay.
[11:05] <longwave> dannylapt: "man interfaces" will tell you the format of the interfaces file if what's already there is not enough to use as an example
[11:05] <ladydoor> GNu_Joe: what do you mean?
[11:05] <ladydoor> GNu_Joe: like the programs/

[11:18] <kkathman> I wonder if anyone could please instruct me on how to enable the alt-f2 in Gnome?  I remember it working before, but for some reason it has stopped.
[11:18] <ladydoor> alexandra: either hit tab to get autocomplet, or what Brkopac said
[11:18] <chanta> cd "a name with spaces"
[11:18] <manopulus> how i cna get opened new directory for attached USB stick or flash card - like in gnome or xfce (i using openbox now)
[11:18] <tomaczec> sanket: your 's/' will not replace _all_ occurences. but just one!
[11:18] <alexandra> thanx very much
[11:18] <sanket> tomaczec: s/xxx/zzz/g ?
[11:19] <don_jr> longwave okay I've created my name and PW and can now get to my GNOME interface, but it doesn't have alot of the options that my laptop has...no synoptic, no add/remove programs...how can I get these added to my new username?
[11:19] <sanket> tomaczec: /g will replace all
[11:19] <jamminpotato> how difficult would it be for me to switch from gnome to kde?
[11:19] <sanket> jamminpotato: you can keep both
[11:19] <ladydoor> don_jr: you need to give yourself admin priveleges
[11:19] <don_jr> ladydoor how do I go about doing that?
[11:19] <ladydoor> don_jr: i think under system, there's an option to edit user accounts
[11:19] <Brkopac> If i want to compile a program using SDL and OpenGL what libraries do I have to install to load OpenGL?
[11:19] <tomaczec> sanket: on a line
[11:19] <jamminpotato> sanket really? hmm....
[11:19] <ladydoor> don_jr: and of you choose to edit yours, i think there should be a place you can click to get priveleges of various sorts
[11:20] <don_jr> ladydoor there may be the option to eddit accounts ifyou are already admin priveledged, but I'm not and it's not there
[11:20] <longwave> don_jr: "sudo adduser username admin" will add username to the admin group
[11:20] <sanket> jamminpotato: you can also add XFCE, tinywm, and many more :P
[11:20] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh yeah...good point. how did you sudo before?
[11:20] <tomaczec> sanket: 1,%s/a/x/g will replace every 'a' with 'x' in a file.
[11:20] <aldur> tomaczec use sg (g = global)
[11:20] <ladydoor> don_jr: (in order to add your account)
[11:20] <sanket> tomaczec: oh yes, I forgot :.,$ s/xxx/zzz/g
[11:20] <don_jr> longwave after doing that command nothing appears to have happened, does that mean it worked?
[11:21] <sanket> shaantanu: what's up?
[11:21] <longwave> don_jr: yes, log out and log back in and the menus will hopefully be there now
[11:21] <aldur> so anyone know how to get the system to pick up all the screen resolutions that my laptop can handl
[11:21] <don_jr> longwave will give it a shot, thanx so much.  This is my first nix system I've ever tried and used so I appriciate the patient help.  you too ladydoor!
[11:21] <ladydoor> don_jr: np
[11:22] <ladydoor> longwave: how is it that he wasn't able to access those menus, but could sudo?
[11:22] <jamminpotato> sanket i want to start with the the two most common ones first
[11:22] <sanket> jamminpotato: ok
[11:22] <tomaczec> sanket: in this case '.,$' and '1,%' means the same.
[11:22] <don_jr> ladydoor I changed the sudo password
[11:22] <sanket> tomaczec: ok thanks
[11:22] <don_jr> ladydoor so I knew what it was, had to do that on my laptop after install aswell and I'm writing down all the commands people give me so I remember them
[11:22] <ladydoor> don_jr: in general, though, using sudo is only possible if you have a user password
[11:22] <longwave> ladydoor: yes, gnome determines if you can see the menu items by checking if you are in the admin group or not
[11:22] <ladydoor> longwave: aha
[11:22] <foxure> Hello
[11:23] <jamminpotato> sanket so how can i install kde with out ditching gnome?
[11:23] <Cool> What do I do if I'm stupid?
[11:23] <tomaczec> aldur: i dont get your 'sg' hint?
[11:23] <longwave> ladydoor: in fact, sudo should only let admin users sudo in the first place, but that depends on your /etc/sudoers config
[11:23] <don_jr> longwave it didn't work.  I sudo adduser don admin   and then loged out and back in, and still don't have the proper options
[11:23] <ladydoor> Cool: don't brag about it, everybody will want to be stupid
[11:23] <ladydoor> Cool: also, consider misspelling things
[11:23] <sh4dox> ladydoor: rofl XD
[11:23] <ladydoor> longwave: aha
[11:23] <chanta> install kubuntu-desktop
[11:23] <green__saotome> anyone now if there is anything specific that needs to be done to tomcat after it's been installed throug the ubuntu repos?
[11:23] <aldur> the /g was for global in the file I thought off the top of my head that it was /sg
[11:23] <longwave> don_jr: hrm i am not sure then, sorry
[11:24] <sanket> jamminpotato: read chanta 's message
[11:24] <Cool> ladydoor: Why should I consider misspelling things? Also, no one wants to be stupid.
[11:24] <ladydoor> sh4dox: :-D...thanks
[11:24] <longwave> green__saotome: generally things in the repos work straight away after you install them
[11:24] <shaantanu> sanket :
[11:24] <ladydoor> Cool: you asked what to do if you were stupid
[11:24] <don_jr> ladydoor any other options to try from you? lol
[11:24] <sanket> shaantanu: yes
[11:24] <shaantanu> I mounted my hdc9 in /media/root
[11:24] <ladydoor> don_jr: for what?
[11:24] <sanket> shaantanu: ok
[11:24] <jamminpotato> where is chanta's message?
[11:24] <green__saotome> longwave, yes this i know, one of the reasons i'm a happy ubuntu user, but tell that to tomcat
[11:24] <jamminpotato> in the motd?
[11:24] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh, did it not work? hmm...try killall gnome-panel
[11:24] <shaantanu> now how do i make an fstab entry ?
[11:24] <shaantanu> sanket :
[11:24] <Cool> ladydoor: Yeah, and you told me to be stupider. You can't help me. I'm just stupid. I'll always be stupid. Like forever.
[11:24] <aldur> jamminpotato Kde is (almost like a theme) except that it does so much more but you can switch between loggining in in gnome and kde (simple explation)
[11:25] <don_jr> ladydoor I just restarted the computer as a whole to see if that would do it
[11:25] <ladydoor> Cool: what are you stupid about in particular that you want help with?
[11:25] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh
[11:25] <sanket> shaantanu: vi /media/root/etc/fstab
[11:25] <don_jr> !nvidia
[11:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:25] <sanket> shaantanu: you should see your old fstab
[11:25] <ladydoor> don_jr: do you have access to the menu editor?
[11:25] <shaantanu> hmm
[11:25] <tomaczec> aldur: in vi(m) s/x/z/sg gives an error... and /g means 'global for the line' (not file).
[11:25] <ladydoor> oh!
[11:25] <ladydoor> try right-clicking on the panel
[11:25] <don_jr> ladydoor not sure, will look once I get back on
[11:25] <ladydoor> don_jr: try right-clicking on the panel
[11:25] <Cool> ladydoor: Um... well, I guess when I restart my computer with Ustupidbu, it just says something like "fatal error, press stupid to reboot" or something like that dealio.
[11:25] <don_jr> ladydoor ok
[11:25] <ladydoor> don_jr: you may be able to edit the menus on the panel
[11:26] <shaantanu> sanket : yes I m seeing that
[11:26] <ladydoor> Cool: err
[11:26] <don_jr> ladydoor that would take care of it then wouldn't it....I'll see in just a moment, loggin in to that box now
[11:26] <ladydoor> Cool: i'm really not familiar with that particular problem
[11:26] <ladydoor> don_jr: hopefully
[11:26] <ladydoor> don_jr: good luck
[11:26] <shaantanu> sanket : I recon , now I have to do all that hda ->hdc stuff
[11:26] <Cool> ladydoor: Yeah. I think it's just be. Even Ustupidbu knows I'm stupid. Oh well, thanks anyway.
[11:27] <sanket> shaantanu: exactly
[11:27] <sanket> shaantanu: do you know how in vi ? :P
[11:27] <shaantanu> the command once more plz

[11:27] <ladydoor> Cool: i would be glad to try to help, on the condition that you stop inserting "stupid" every other word :-)
[11:27] <sh4dox> i give up ... irda s*cks =D
[11:27] <sanket> shaantanu: type : and then .,$ s/hda/hdc/g hit return
[11:27] <tomaczec> hehe
[11:27] <aldur> just getting back to linux today
[11:28] <don_jr> ladydoor okay that didn't do it......sheesh
[11:28] <sh4dox> yet my 3D desktop =D and then i'm off for a movie =P
[11:28] <muhammad> how can i change the file owner for partition with file system fat32 ? i did sudo chown $user:$group /media/hda1 ?
[11:28] <ladydoor> don_jr: sorry
[11:28] <ladydoor> don_jr: :-(
[11:29] <don_jr> ladydoor okay, I was mistaken, I don't hve the sudo password like I thought...how can I change it?  If i restart the computer in recovery mode I have sudo powers that way
[11:29] <aldur> !resolution
[11:29] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:29] <Cool> ladydoor: Don't sweat it. You can't help me anystupidway. If I had a different name, it would be "Stu" because those are the first three letters of Stupid.
[11:29] <ladydoor> don_jr: do you mean the password to "su"? after you type it do you become root? because sudo is supposed to use your personal password
[11:30] <sh4dox> I'm not a God. I'm a human being. If I were a God, I wouldn't be able to use Ubuntu, because it's Linux for Human Beings. And I would miss that dearly!
[11:30] <sh4dox> rofl
[11:30] <don_jr> ladydoor oh...well the password to su I don't have
[11:30] <ladydoor> Cool: well...if you say so...that's not a very good attitude :-(
[11:30] <don_jr> ladydoor I'm in recovery mode now that puts me at root anyways
[11:30] <shaantanu> sanket : did that ... now I hope it shud start normally
[11:30] <shaantanu> ??
[11:30] <ladydoor> don_jr: ok. hmmm...do this:  less /etc/group |grep admin
[11:30] <don_jr> ladydoor it just told me "adding user 'don' to group 'admin'   done
[11:30] <bigron> hi!
[11:30] <don_jr> ladydor so that should do it eh?
[11:30] <jamminpotato> so lets say i just used synaptic to isntall fluxbox, how could i switch from gnome to fluxbox?
[11:30] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh
[11:30] <sanket> shaantanu: did hda change to hdc ?
[11:31] <ladydoor> don_jr: maybe
[11:31] <shaantanu> ya
[11:31] <bigron> i have a problem with my Wlan Device under ubuntu
[11:31] <ladydoor> you might also try sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-panel
[11:31] <sanket> shaantanu: ok reboot fast I am waiting till you return from your original Ubuntu installation :)
[11:31] <shaantanu> hmm .. just a sec
[11:31] <don_jr> ladydoor at least I know hwo to get to root if I have to use it..
[11:31] <ladydoor> bigron: are you using ndiswrapper?
[11:31] <ladydoor> don_jr: lol. yeah. there's a better way than going into recovery mode, though
[11:31] <jamminpotato> sanket, after i install anotehr window manger, say fluxbox, how do i switch from gnome to fluxbox
[11:32] <bigron> after I activated the Wlan Device (eth2) with ifup eth2 a error Message camed!
[11:32] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: log out of gnome
[11:32] <don_jr> ladydoor maybe, but I don't know it yet! :)
[11:32] <bigron> no ndiswrapper
[11:32] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: in the login screen
[11:32] <ladydoor> insanity_: go to sessions
[11:32] <ladydoor> insanity_: sorry, that was for jamminpotato
[11:32] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: go to sessions
[11:32] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: and select it
[11:32] <ladydoor> don_jr: sudo passwd root
[11:32] <jamminpotato> ladydoor thanks
[11:32] <Cool> jamminpotato: I have to say that your name is coollicious.
[11:32] <sanket> jamminpotato: on your login screen, go to preferences/system/whatever, and Select Session. select gnome/kde/whatever
[11:32] <don_jr> I cannot belive how fast this loads compared to XP
[11:33] <ladydoor> don_jr: but be careful with that...ocne you get everything working, it's better to use sudo instead of "su" (which will make you root)
[11:33] <bigron> this is my ERORO MESSAGE! : http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/3154/
[11:33] <ladydoor> don_jr: :-)
[11:33] <don_jr> ladydoor okay, but it worked doing it in recovery mode.
[11:33] <TheGateKeeper> anyone know how to list the groups a user belongs to?
[11:33] <sh4dox> sanket: how can i bind a key (like F12) to a program? o_O
[11:33] <ladydoor> gruops
[11:33] <ladydoor> TheGateKeeper: in a terminal type "groups"
[11:33] <sanket> sh4dox: you have to read the XGL docs for that, I don't remember
[11:33] <ladydoor> TheGateKeeper: (as that user)
[11:34] <sanket> sh4dox: why don't you go to #ubuntu-xgl
[11:34] <ladydoor> don_jr: i know, but that way you don't need to reboot :-)
[11:34] <don_jr> ladydoor thanx, I just changed the PW for it so I can get there if I have to now
[11:34] <TheGateKeeper> ladydoor: thanx :-)
[11:34] <sh4dox> sanket: ok, i'll give a try in #ubuntu-xgl
[11:34] <don_jr> ladydoor now to follow this webpage and see if I can get my geforce mx4000 to work properly
[11:35] <ladydoor> TheGateKeeper: np
[11:35] <ladydoor> don_jr: sweet!
[11:36] <ladydoor> don_jr: good luck!
[11:36] <Prohibited> hey I messed something up with my sound can I like reset the settings
[11:36] <FloydFan> Any Chicagoans in the information technology field out there?
[11:37] <sanket> ladydoor: do you know about the Login Window crash bug?
[11:37] <TheGateKeeper> ladydoor: is there a way to list all groups?
[11:37] <ladydoor> TheGateKeeper: less /etc/group
[11:37] <ladydoor> (/etc/group is the file where all the group names and who's in them are stored)
[11:37] <disciple> I seem to have lost the ubuntu updater applet from the panel anyone know how to re-add it?
[11:37] <TheGateKeeper> ladydoor: brilliant thanx :-)
[11:37] <ladydoor> sanket: nope, I boot to a CLI and use "startx"
[11:37] <ladydoor> sanket: sorry
[11:37] <jamminpotato> wow fluxbox was...bare
[11:38] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: it gets better
[11:38] <jamminpotato> i couldnt figure out how to open a terminal
[11:38] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: it just takes some configurin'
[11:38] <tjcarter> here goes nothing....
[11:38] <jamminpotato> so i came back to gnome
[11:38] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: try right-clicking
[11:38] <jamminpotato> ladydoor  i did it jut said flux box, and i need to go soon so i figured i'd do it another day
[11:38] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: you're going to need to set up menus for it and stuff...i think there's a way to do it automagically. check out their website
[11:38] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: good luck!
[11:38] <DocTomoe> Hi ... for cryptograpic reasons I need a ramdisk in dapper. Any suggestions on a tutorial I could use?
[11:38] <sanket> sanket: I am talking about the gdmsetup, anyways, thanks
[11:39] <jamminpotato> thanks ladydoor #ubuntu is always so helpful!
[11:39] <don_jr> ladydoor how do I find out what kernel I'm running?
[11:39] <muhammad> how can i change the file owner for partitions like hda1 and hda7 ?
[11:39] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: is there a way to send files over irc?
[11:39] <DocTomoe> don_jr: how about "uname -a" ?
[11:39] <lupine_85> dcc
[11:39] <ladydoor> jamminpotato: because i could send you a more-set-up config file for your menu and a keybinding file
[11:39] <anthony> aMSN keeps telling me to "check the open file command in the preferences window" when I click "open" on the completed transfer window. I have and it's blank.  what should I put there to make it open the received file? (a .ogg in this case)
[11:39] <ladydoor> don_jr: uname -r
[11:39] <ceruleantiger> I was wondering if anyone here had experience running ubuntu on a macbook (not pro). Specifically, I was wondering about iSight, two finger scrolling/clicking, power management (suspend, etc...), sound and video support... Is it any good?
[11:40] <delmar> im getting lots of "rtc: lost some interrupts at 1024Hz" in my logs. anyone seen this?
[11:40] <Lastent> !grub
[11:40] <ceruleantiger> Also, since it's a core duo, do I need to be running something other than an i386 kernel? I saw some stuff about SMP or something (I'm a bit of a noob)... Do I need to install the SMP kernel?
[11:40] <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
[11:40] <longwave> there are no SMP kernels any more, they all support SMP
[11:40] <disciple> I seem to have lost the ubuntu updater applet from the panel anyone know how to re-add it?
[11:40] <don_jr> okay in conjunction with that I got 2.6.15-26-386    would this be the same as saying linux-image-2.6.15-26-386?
[11:40] <longwave> you probably want the -686 kernel rather than -386 though
[11:41] <DocTomoe> ceruleantiger: the SMP kernel is for x86 machines ... is the macbook an x86 machine?
[11:41] <ladydoor> don_jr: yup! linux-image-blah-blah-blah is just the package name for ubuntu
[11:41] <shaantanu> sanket : no success
[11:41] <ceruleantiger> DocTomoe: Yes, it's dual core intel
[11:41] <gusatvo-bh> someone can tel me the # to ubuntu brazil ?
[11:41] <shaantanu> sanket : I think I goofed up somewhere in my fstab
[11:41] <longwave> !br
[11:41] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[11:41] <DocTomoe> !br
[11:41] <ceruleantiger> DocTomoe: So I should install an SMP kernel? I couldn't find an ubuntu-SMP.iso off the site... Am I looking at the wrong place?
[11:41] <gusatvo-bh> thanks!
[11:41] <Prohibited> hey I messed something up with my sound can I like reset the settings
[11:42] <don_jr> ladydoor okay, makin sure, gotta get the proper restricted files for my vid card
[11:42] <sanket> shaantanu: pastebin
[11:42] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh, ok
[11:42] <shaantanu> hmm
[11:42] <longwave> ceruleantiger: SMP and non-SMP kernels are the same thing nowadays
[11:42] <ladydoor> don_jr: good luck!
[11:42] <shaantanu> k
[11:42] <DocTomoe> ceruleantiger: There is no SMP-iso afair ... you might want to try to install that smp kernel
[11:42] <sanket> shaantanu: brb in a min
[11:42] <ceruleantiger> longwave: ok, thanks
[11:42] <longwave> ceruleantiger: the -686 kernel will provide the best performance on core duo i believe
[11:42] <chanta> !es
[11:42] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:42] <shaantanu> just a sec
[11:42] <longwave> though there isn't really that much difference between 386 and 686
[11:43] <muhammad> what is this message mean sudo: must be setuid root
[11:43] <ceruleantiger> longwave: does it work out of the box? Or do I need to apt-get an i686 kernel after initial install?
[11:43] <Telarian09> Hello all, I got a dell dimension and I'm repartioning the hard drive for dual boot and currently there is 47MB fat16 partition, a 140GB ntfs partition, and 3.45GB fat32 partion....anyone know what the smaller fat partitions are and can I delete them for more space?
[11:43] <longwave> muhammad: what are you trying to do?
[11:43] <micahcowan> muhammad, it means someone changed the permissions on your sudo program, sounds like.
[11:43] <longwave> ceruleantiger: the 386 kernel is installed by default, you can install the 686 one with apt-get or synaptic or whatever
[11:43] <muhammad> longwave> am tryin to change the file owner for my partitions :S
[11:43] <SanketMedhi> shaantanu: yes
[11:43] <gleesond> anyone know of a good cross platform video confrencing software
[11:43] <gleesond> ?
[11:43] <longwave> muhammad: exactly what command did you type?
[11:43] <muhammad> longwave> but i cant even with chown :s
[11:43] <DocTomoe> Telarian09: My Dell notebook used to have a disgnostic rescue system on a similar partition. Was used by technicans for ystem diagnostics
[11:43] <gusatvo-bh> someone can tell me how to mount a "windows" unit ?
[11:43] <ceruleantiger> longwave: ok, thanks a lot

[11:44] <doddo> Hi! Ive recently switched from kubuntu to ubuntu and i havent figured out howto remove the desktop icons does someone know how to do that?
[11:44] <DocTomoe> Telarian09: Matter of fact, I killed it of as soon as my garanty was voided
[11:44] <longwave> man, someone bothered to connect over tor just to flood us with that
 i typed sudo chown -R --From=root:plugdev muhammad:muhammad /media/hda1
[11:45] <don_jr> okay need more help.  I tried to enable the graphics drivers, it told me the script cannot proceed automatically. if you believe that this is not correct, you can update the mdSsum entry executing the folowing comman: mdSsum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf .mdSsum   Otherwise edit manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the Driver section from nv to nvidia.....

[11:45] <MKR> D:
[11:45] <MKR> How do I eat someone's soul over the internet?
[11:45] <ladydoor> like this
[11:45] <longwave> MKR: i'm sure there's a package for that in ubuntu somewhere ;)
[11:46] <aldur2> back, got my screen res fixed
[11:46] <muhammad> micahcowan> i hv that after doin the command u typed me -rwxr-xr-x 1 muhammad root 93844 2006-05-17 03:41 /usr/bin/sudo
[11:46] <MKR> probably
[11:46] <DocTomoe> MKR: Get a job at Microsoft?
[11:46] <MKR> apt-get install gsoul
[11:46] <GNu_Joe> MKR: one bite at a time?
[11:46] <MKR> I bet that's a real package
[11:46] <aldur2> mkr , send me your bank details and i'll show you :-)
[11:46] <micahcowan> muhammad, looks like I was right. It gives that same message every time you try to run sudo?
[11:46] <MKR> I'm silly, not gullible =P
[11:46] <longwave> muhammad: ah, ok, /usr/bin/sudo needs to be -rwsr-xr-x
[11:46] <aldur2> !wireless
[11:46] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:47] <longwave> muhammad: can you get to root without sudo? if so, you can "chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo" to fix it
[11:47] <tim_> hello
[11:47] <ladydoor> hi!
[11:47] <MKR> hello
[11:47] <longwave> muhammad: oh, it also needs to be owned by root
[11:47] <muhammad> micahcowan> yes give me sudo: must be setuid root
[11:47] <micahcowan> muhammad, I don't suppose you have a root password set up?
[11:47] <longwave> muhammad: are all the other files owned by muhammad in /usr/bin? if so, you probably should reinstall if the permissions are all messed up...
[11:47] <muhammad> micahcowan> yea did setup it yet
 ok i will try now
[11:48] <ceruleantiger> There's all this talk about using bootcamp for booting on macbooks, is it possible to boot OSX/Ubuntu through grub? Or is this locked out by the hardware or what?
[11:48] <raich> hey can someone recommend some good native game?
[11:48] <muhammad> micahcowan sorry didnt setup it yet i mean
[11:48] <xepher> raich: frozen bubble
[11:48] <micahcowan> muhammad, if you have no other way to be root, you'll have to boot from a recovery disk (say, the live boot CD), mount your Linux partition (the one that contains /usr/bin), and change it as root from there, with sudo chmod +s <path to sudo in mounted partition>
[11:48] <raich> xepher, 
[11:49] <muhammad> micahcowan aha got it
[11:49] <xepher> raich: doom3?
[11:49] <micahcowan> muhammad: or, perhaps you can do it using single-user (recovery) mode in grub, actually.
[11:49] <raich> xepher, native?
[11:49] <muhammad> micahcowan> i will try now
[11:49] <xepher> raich: yeah, idsoftware released an executable for it...
[11:49] <micahcowan> anybody: how does single-user mode work when there's no root password? does it simply boot to a root shell without password prompt?
[11:49] <muhammad> thx micahcowan> and longwave
[11:49] <longwave> muhammad, micahcowan: more importantly how did sudo lose those permissions in the first place? if other files in /usr/bin have lost their correct permissions it may be easier to reinstall at this point
[11:49] <raich> would be a really big plus if it's open source or at least free downloadable
[11:50] <micahcowan> longwave, I'm guessing he mistargeted a sudo chmod at some point...
[11:50] <xepher> raich: what type of game are u looking for
[11:50] <don_jr> ladydoor It worked!!  I'm doing good today! hehehe
[11:50] <longwave> micahcowan: yeah, and fixing that is not very easy :(
[11:50] <ladydoor> don_jr: yay! that's awesome!
[11:50] <ladydoor> don_jr: yeah you are
[11:50] <xepher> raich: bzflag is pretty cool... its open source and free
[11:50] <don_jr> ladydoor how do I change my screen resolution?
[11:50] <jacques> hello
[11:50] <ladydoor> don_jr: i'm not sure
[11:50] <ladydoor> don_jr: sorry
[11:50] <raich> xepher dont know, maybe a mmorpg (odds to find a good one for linux ar very low...) or at leeeeast with pretty 3d graphics
[11:50] <jacques> how ya all doing
[11:51] <don_jr> ladydoor I"m a dope, sorry, it's in the system menu
[11:51] <ladydoor> raich: look in synaptic, under games
[11:51] <raich> xepher, is there a linux gaming channel?
[11:51] <ladydoor> don_jr: oh, sweet!
[11:51] <xepher> raich: not sure
[11:51] <micahcowan> longwave, is that in answer to my "anybody" question, or my sudo chown comment?
[11:51] <ladydoor> raich: or happypenguin.org
[11:51] <xepher> raich :doubt it
[11:51] <longwave> micahcowan: i presume single user mode doesnt ask for a password if there isn't one, you can usually use the init=/bin/sh trick to get a straight root shell if you don't know the root password
[11:51] <marshall_> hey guys
[11:51] <raich> hmm thanks ladudoor
[11:51] <raich> xepheer, too bd..
[11:51] <raich> ladydor*
[11:51] <don_jr> does ubuntu come with a python editor/compiler?
[11:51] <raich> damn
[11:51] <raich> ladydoor**
[11:52] <ladydoor> raich: haha
[11:52] <longwave> micahcowan: the sudo chown comment
[11:52] <marshall_> i keep getting this error: invalid string or constant "panel"
[11:52] <nexus> hi
[11:52] <ladydoor> don_jr: in synaptic, search for "python"
[11:52] <don_jr> ladydoor ok
[11:52] <longwave> don_jr: yes, python is installed by default, a lot of ubuntu scripts are in python
[11:52] <jacques> just changed from winXP to linux.just want to know how to play my movies/series that used to use the xvid and divx codecs
[11:52] <micahcowan> longwave, losing sudo would be a real pain (especially without root password). I feel for the guy.

[11:53] <ladydoor> micahcowan: from there he could set root's password
[11:53] <MMXGN> the way described in ubuntu forums doesnt seem to work for me
[11:53] <MMXGN> :/
[11:53] <ladydoor> micahcowan: and after that could fix the system
[11:53] <pequatre> hi. I need your advices. I can't read a video dvd: if i put it in my pc nothing happens (no automount). I had the same problem last week but i succeeded in reading it and i could see the movie (i have libdcss etc...) .I don't remember how i fixed it. Any one can help ?
[11:53] <inewguy> is this the right chat to ask for ubuntu help on my ibook or is there some special ubuntu mac chat for that?
[11:53] <micahcowan> ladydoor, yeah, that was our suggestion. And he wouldn't need to set root's password, he could just fix sudo with a chown.
[11:53] <longwave> ladydoor: he can log on in recovery mode, but reversing the commands he has run to lose sudo in the first place may be complicated
[11:54] <ladydoor> longwave: aha.
[11:54] <micahcowan> longwave, why? wouldn't a simple chown do the trick?
[11:54] <tomaczec> don_jr: btw, python is not regarded to be a language to be 'compiled'... hence there is no compiler.
[11:54] <don_jr> tomaczec it's not? then what is it?
[11:54] <longwave> micahcowan: yes, but he was using -R before, and if he's changed more permissions/owners than just sudo that will be hard to fix
[11:54] <micahcowan> longwave, Assuming he didn't chown -R -s /usr/bin or something... >:-] 
[11:54] <jacques> just changed from winXP to linux.just want to know how to play my movies/series that used to use the xvid and divx codecs
[11:54] <micahcowan> lol
[11:54] <inewguy> hello?
[11:55] <ladydoor> inewguy: hi!
[11:55] <Bazzi> jacques easyubuntu might be the way to go for you
[11:55] <pequatre> "sudo hdparm /dev/hdc" stalls my terminal
[11:55] <longwave> pequatre: what is connected to hdc?
[11:55] <inewguy> ladydoor: ah, so what i say can be read by you after all :-)
[11:55] <tomaczec> don_jr: kinda so called 'scripting language' with a python interpreter to run the scripted code.
[11:55] <jacques> Bazzi what do you mean
[11:55] <pequatre> longwave, my dvd player
[11:55] <edju> I can't add a printer in cups - asks for a passwd & whether I give root or user, I can't continue.  Anybody?
[11:55] <micahcowan> longwave: but still, at least the other permissions would be easier to fix if he has sudo working. But, yeah, I agree with you: if he's munged setuid on other binaries too, then he's better off reinstalling. We should ask him to ls -l /bin/login when he gets back.
[11:55] <pequatre> longwave, there's a dvd inside
[11:56] <Bazzi> !easyubuntu > jacques
[11:56] <don_jr> tomaczec okay, I'm new to this nix stuff.  would it be better for me to learn scripting in bash or zsh instead of python?
[11:56] <longwave> pequatre: hrm, that should work. is there any output in "dmesg" about hdc?
[11:56] <inewguy> ladydoor: so, well, is this the right chat to ask for ubuntu-on-mac help? i just installed it on my ibook and have some issues
[11:56] <jacques> ???
[11:56] <longwave> don_jr: python is a good language to start out with
[11:56] <jacques> is it a irc channel
[11:56] <chanta> airport extreme      https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[11:57] <pequatre> longwave, "[17179949.552000]  cdrom: open failed."
[11:57] <inewguy> :(
[11:57] <longwave> don_jr: shell scripts can be limiting in what you can do with them easily compared to say python or perl
[11:57] <pequatre> longwave, also "[17179869.844000]  hdc: request sense failure: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[11:57] <pequatre> "
[11:57] <fredsa> hi guys
[11:57] <ladydoor> inewguy: i guess so, but i'm not the person to ask, unfortuantely. sorry.
[11:57] <tomaczec> don_jr: python is more a prgramming language (object orientation and such) as bash/zsh. i cant decide what's better for you. what do you need it for?
[11:57] <_lupine> longwave: I wouldn't write a GUI in them, but they're good for quick 'n dirty :)
[11:58] <inewguy> ladydoor: ok, thanks for the information anyway!
[11:58] <_lupine> but pascal is better than python to start with
[11:58] <fredsa> does anyone here know how to setup gdm to launch multiple x sessions?
[11:58] <longwave> _lupine: yeah, but once you know python/perl it's often quicker to just use those anyway :)
[11:58] <_lupine> look up "lazarus" and "fpc"
[11:58] <Peacer> i have a problem with my netcard
[11:58] <don_jr> tomaczec I dont' have any specific needs right now.  Just want to learn how to customize my box a bit more and I'm told scripting is the way to do that.
[11:58] <_lupine> eh, for regex's yes
[11:58] <Peacer> suddenly it couldn't connect :(
[11:58] <don_jr> longwave I'll work with python for a bit, found a decent starter page for it that'll help
[11:58] <longwave> _lupine: and what can't be solved with a regex? ;)
[11:58] <Peacer> no green light in teh back of the netcard
[11:58] <ladydoor> inewguy: np!
[11:58] <inewguy> ok, so here it goes: I just installed ubuntu 6.06.1 on my ibook g4 and iin general i am loving it but there is a display glitch that i find quite anoying
[11:59] <_lupine> probably nothing :/
[11:59] <_lupine> but only the initiated can understand them fully
[11:59] <_lupine> computer version of the Necronomicon, I guess
[11:59] <longwave> haha yes
[11:59] <inewguy> sometimes when displaying dialogs, the OK/Cancel/help buttons are not the normal color but bright yellow or pitch black
[11:59] <tomaczec> don_jr: give python a try. if you dont like it ... have a look at bash scripting.
[11:59] <Peacer> any help please :)?
[11:59] <inewguy> how can i fix that?
[12:00] <ravenous> how do you set whether gdm or kdm runs on x login?
[12:00] <Pulshion> is there a way to get atitool to work in ubuntu?
[12:00] <Peacer> driver problems with it
[12:00] <longwave> pequatre: have you tried hdparm without a dvd in the drive? that error suggests it cant read a sector from the dvd, but that may be because of dvd copy protection or something
